Some men just have trouble finding a great shaving soap for their skin type.
It can be a hassle due to burning, irritation, sensitivity, and razor bumps.
There are a lot of factors to consider, and it is not just using the correct soap.
First, there is more to choosing the right product for sensitive skin. In addition to using the best product, you must have a proper pre and post shave routine
We will provide you with some helpful information in addition to the most awesome products you can use.
Think about this, when you shave, you are taking a razor blade across your face. When you do that you remove hair and some skin. You are actually exfoliating your skin which is the process of removing the superficial layers of the skin.
For those with sensitive skin, it is extremely important to choose the right products, but it is more important to take care of your face before and after you shave.
Best Shaving Soaps For Sensitive Skin
|Proraso BLUE ALOE AND VITAMIN E SHAVING CREAM
Best Sensitive Skin Shaving Soaps and Creams
WSP Hypoallergenic Rustic Shaving Soap
Look, there is nothing flashy about this soap, but for sensitive skin, it is perfect.
It is handmade in small batches in California. It has a very simple ingredient profile which is similar to a lot of vegan artisan soaps.
It is basically stearic acid and coconut oil, that's it. This soap does have glycerin in it, which should help add moisture to your shave.
Of course, this is a traditional shave soap, so you will need a shaving brush to go with it.
All Natural Small Batch Artisan made shaving soap
Unscented, No Dyes, No Preservatives
Simple ingredient list: Stearic Acid, Water, Coconut Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Glycerin.
Wholly Kaw Donkey Milk Shaving Soap, Bare Naked
Wholly Kaw (pronounced Holy Cow) has one of the best formulas on the market.
The lather is insanely thick and incredibly slick. The stuff is the bomdiggity!
They make some incredibly complex scents that smell amazing, but that's not what we are going for here.
Luckily for us, they make a Naked version of their Donkey Milk Soap. The only thing to consider here is that it does contain Lanolin.
So, if you are sensitive to it, or if you are not sure, there are plenty of other shaving soaps listed here.
If you have no issues with Lanolin, then you're in luck. This added ingredient will help sooth your skin.
Haslinger Aloe Vera Shaving Soap
Haslinger of Austria has been creating grooming products for men for over 100 years.
This is a small puck which can be used in bowl lathering, or you can wet your face and rub it directly on your stubble, then lather with a brush.
This is a very simple soap, yet it is remarkable in its ability to produce extremely thick lather that has great glide.
We have always loved Haslinger shaving soaps, and we will continue to use them.
Proraso Blue Aloe and Vitamin E Shaving Cream
Proraso Blue Aloe and Vitamin E Shaving Cream, 150ml Tube
This is one of the best selling shaving creams on the market. It is perfect for sensitive skin because it is loaded with Vitamin E and Aloe.
This Italian made brand has been widely known for decades as one of the premier cream brands, and you will not be disappointed in this one.
It is available at West Coast Shaving and they have tons of reviews on how well this product performs.
Proraso Shaving Cream For Sensitive Skin
We love the Proraso Brand, and it made our list of Best Shaving Soaps, so it is no surprise that we are including one of their products here.
This product provides a close and comfortable shave, and is far superior to aerosol shaving creams. Any time you pack air pockets into your lather, you are not helping your razor find a close angle on your hair. Check out the reviews on amazon.
- No parabens, no silicones
- No mineral oil, no SLS
- No artificial colors
- No ingredients of animal origin
- Over 95% natural
Proraso Shaving Soap For Sensitive Skin
This is the same product as the shaving cream listed above, but it is a shaving soap instead.
If you prefer to use a shaving brush with a more traditional soap instead of cream, then this would be the better option for you.
Taylor Of Old Bond Street Jermyn Street Shaving Cream for Sensitive Skin
TOBS, has been around for a very long time, so they understand how to make a good shaving product.
This is an English product, and it does have a scent to it, but it is intentionally lightly scented. It is a very pleasing, subtle scent.
It does contain Aloe Vera Leaf Juice and Allantoin, which will be very helpful for sensitive skin.
What is Allantoin? Allantoin is in a lot of cosmetic products as an anti-irritant and skin protectanct.
This ingredient is perfect for those who have irritation issues when shaving.
Scotch Porter Sensitive Skin Shaving Cream
All natural and fragrance free. Need we say more.
This Cream is chock full of skin loving ingredients like Shea Butter, Oatmeal, Aloe, Cucumber, and Vitamin E.
In addition, it is free of skin drying detergents and harsh ingredients.
What Is The Best Pre-Shave Routine For Sensitive Skin?
You need to clean and exfoliate the area before you shave. This will help to prevent ingrown hairs and razor burn.
The type of face cleaner you use is also important. Do not use regular bar soap. It is designed to strip away dirt and your natural oils from your skin, and most commercial soaps lack natural moisturizers like glycerin.
Find a great facial cleaner for men that is mild and does not contain synthetic surfactants. At Beardedblade, we like Jack Black Pure Clean Daily Facial Cleanser.
It will also help you greatly if you can get moisture on your whiskers. A nice hot shower will help tremendously.
Your facial cleanser will wash away the natural oils on your whiskers, and this will allow them to absorb a lot of water. This makes them much easier to cut, which is exactly what you want if you have sensitive skin.
Use a good razor with new razor blades and make sure the blades are not gunked up with soap and hair.
A sharp blade will cut cleanly through your hair, is less likely to cause razor burn, and is less likely to cause ingrown hairs or razor bumps. You have sensitive skin, remember, you don't need to add problems to it.
A dull blade can tug at hairs and pull them out, and it just makes for a bad shave.
What Is The Best Post-Shave Routine For Sensitive Skin?
Look, you have sensitive skin. You will need to do more than most people in order to keep your face happy. A proper post shave routine will do wonders for you over time.
You have now washed your face, and even with a mild cleanser like Jack Black, you still have stripped beneficial oils from your skin. You need to find a way to replenish that moisture.
In addition to stripping away your natural oils, an extremely sharp piece of metal has been dragged across your sensitive skin on your face which has removed superficial layers.
Your skin is screaming for moisture to be returned, so give it what it wants.
We like Proraso Sensitive Skin with Oatmeal Extract and Green Tea to help soothe any irritation.
Also, take a look at our article on witch hazel. It is a great all natural post shave product that is excellent for sensitive skin.
Other Tips For Dealing With Sensitive Skin From Shaving
If you are using aerosol shaving creams, you may have better luck using a product like a brushless cream, or better yet, a shaving cream or shaving soap that requires a brush.
Many people with sensitive skin have reported much lower irritation by switching to using a shaving brush in a shaving bowl over the canned foam products.
Some things to look for in shaving creams and soaps if you have sensitive skin:
- Fragrance Free-most products on the market contain fragrance and it is usually synthetic. Synthetic fragrance can contain 100's of chemicals in them. It is possible that a fragrance oil could be causing you issues.
- Contains Natural Oils and Butters- These would be ingredients like Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Essential Oils, you know, things you have heard of before.
- Contains soothing ingredients-These would be Aloe, Chamomile, Green Tea
- No Dyes-These may cause irritation
We listed some great products, but, we really feel that there are other things that you can do to help.
The steps we mentioned before you shave and after you shave are really going to benefit you in the long run.
You need to look at the overall process of shaving and grooming for your face to determine what can be done to improve your irritating shaves.
If you have not been using a proper pre and post shave routine, it may take a while for you to see the benefits, so do not give up after a shave or two.
Some things to consider:
If you are using shaving foam with cheap disposable razors, then you may want to get a better razor like a double edge razor along with some of the products we mentioned above.
If you are using great products, but you are using a 3-blade cartridge razor, try using a single blade DE razor with some Personna Reds or Derby blades.
For sensitive skin sufferers, you need to look at each and every thing that can impact your face.

"Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one."
I'm tired of just talking about how we can make the world a better place. It's time for action. Let's do this.
"Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one."
I'm tired of just talking about how we can make the world a better place. It's time for action. Let's do this.
"Even though you try to put people under control, it is impossible. You cannot do it. The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous. Then they will be in control in a wider sense. To give your sheep or cow a large spacious meadow is the way to control him. So it is with people: first let them do what they want, and watch them. This is the best policy. To ignore them is not good. That is the worst policy. The second worst is trying to control them. The best one is to watch them, just to watch them, without trying to control them." Shunryu Suzuki
I love inspirational and thought provoking quotes. I love when a complex, intricate, gargantuan subject or idea can be represented with not so many words. They're easy to find (thanks to the internet) They're diverse and plentiful, and they draw me in like a moth to a fortune cookie
This morning, I am feeling a special affection toward the wise words of John Muir. I'd like to have copy and pasted the entire list from Goodreads and BrainyQuote, but for the sake of brevity, I have only included ten.
10. "Keep close to Nature's heart… and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean." ~John Muir
9. "As long as I live, I'll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I'll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm, and the avalanche. I'll acquaint myself with the glaciers and wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can". ~John Muir
8. "This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls." ~John Muir
7. "Going to the woods is going home." ~John Muir
6. "When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe." ~John Muir
5. "Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world." ~ John Muir
4. "I never saw a discontented tree. They grip the ground as though they liked it, and though fast rooted they travel about as far as we do." ~John Muir
3. "The sun shines not on us but in us. The rivers flow not past, but through us. Thrilling, tingling, vibrating every fiber and cell of the substance of our bodies, making them glide and sing. The trees wave and the flowers bloom in our bodies as well as our souls, and every bird song, wind song, and tremendous storm song of the rocks in the heart of the mountains is our song, our very own, and sings our love." ~John Muir2. "Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul." ~John Muir1. "The power of imagination makes us infinite." ~John Muir
"One day's exposure to mountains is better than a cartload of books." ~John Muir
"When I see people stopped in traffic, in the check-out lane at the store, or walking down the street, I like to visualize their bones. It helps me remember that, no matter how different we are, deep down we are all the same." ~My Chiropractor
No one wants to fail. No one wants to be miserable. No one wants to be depressed. No one wants to have acidic relationships. Everyone is doing the best they can with what they have been given. We all have dreams. We all have vision. We all have aspirations. We all have a past, and we all have made decisions we regret. We all have a spark of greatness, we all have passion, and we all have hate. We all have secrets. We all have scars. Each of us is different, but we are all the same.
"As a child, one has that magical capacity to move among the many eras of the earth; to see the land as an animal does; to experience the sky from the perspective of a flower or a bee; to feel the earth quiver and breathe beneath us; to know a hundred different smells of mud and listen unself- consciously to the soughing of the trees." ~Valerie Andrews
"Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience." ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
I have devoted a lot of time and energy to telling people they are wrong, that I am right, and that they should live the way I live (more like how I would like to live) in order to be happy. I have gone about trying to change people, and change the world, by talking. I've shared the Gospel, I've spoken the wisdom of Buddha. I've quoted various philosophers. I've explained the health benefits of various diets, and the ills of processed foods. "If only they knew" I would think to myself, "If only they knew what they were doing wrong," "If only they could hear this nugget of precious wisdom that changed my life, then they would be enlightened, and the world would be a better place"
But, as you may be aware, I haven't saved the world yet. We don't live in a Utopia, and we haven't all linked arms in a giant circle, or came together for an earth-wide embrace. What am I doing wrong? What's missing?
Words are good, and talking things through can be very helpful, but nothing compares with action. A hug needs no interpretation, but speaks volumes in any language. A hand up, a smile, sacrificial giving when its needed most. These things are real. They are tangible, and they make an immediate, clear, and tangible change in the world. Action inspires in a way that quotable quotes could only dream of. A man who has been helped out of a crisis by a kind stranger will be motivated to do the same for another,
"My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground on which I stand."
The kids and I are reading Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery and I just can't get enough of Anne's little sayings. She has a wonderfully marvelous perspective, and a very unique and often humorous way of expressing herself. That being said, here are my top ten quotes from Anne of Green Gables.
10. "It's been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will."
9. "Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive–it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we know all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?
8. "There's such a lot of different Annes in me. I sometimes think that is why I'm such a troublesome person. If I was just the one Anne it would be ever so much more comfortable, but then it wouldn't be half so interesting."
7. "Oh, it's delightful to have ambitions. I'm so glad I have such a lot. And there never seems to be any end to them– that's the best of it. Just as soon as you attain to one ambition you see another one glittering higher up still. It does make life so interesting."
6. "Look at that sea, girls–all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds."
5. "It's so hard to get up again—although of course the harder it is the more satisfaction you have when you do get up, haven't you?"
4. "It is ever so much easier to be good if your clothes are fashionable."
3. "We pay a price for everything we get or take in this world; and although ambitions are well worth having, they are not to be cheaply won, but exact their dues of work and self denial, anxiety and discouragement."
2. "It has always seemed to me. ever since early childhood, amid all the commonplaces of life, i was very near to a kingdom of ideal beauty. Between it and me hung only a thin veil. I could never draw it quite aside, but sometimes a wind fluttered it and I caught a glimpse of the enchanting realms beyond-only a glimpse-but those glimpses have always made life worthwhile."
1. "Dear old world', she murmured, 'you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you."
"The difference is slight, to the influence of an author, whether he is read by 500 readers, or by five hundred thousand; if he can select the 500, he reaches the five hundred thousand." ~Brooks Adams
What a relief. I was struggling to get 5 readers, never mind 500,000. There are a lot of people out there artificially puffing up their numbers, using spamy ads that fill up the screen and distract from the content of the posts: "Sign up Today" "Get Exclusive Content" "Rate This Article" "Read The Next Article." Take it easy killer, I haven't even read the first line yet.
I won't pretend that I know all about writing, or how to make money blogging, or how to build an audience, but I will pretend that I know something. It seems to me that we have shifted our focus from helping people to getting followers, or likes, or shares, or pageviews, and many of us will stop at nothing to get them. But I would rather help just one person to live a better life, than to have thousands of meaningless pageviews.
I have found that my favorite quotes from intelligent, amazing, brilliant people haven't actually taught me anything. Rather, I am drawn to the quote because it expresses something I already believe, but I needed the reassurance of knowing someone that I respect feels the same way.
I think what makes true geniuses, is that they don't need someone famous, important, or respectable to speak up and affirm their views before they are willing to say what is on their minds.

Impact of KPMG Ban in IL&FS Case
Indian government has moved to National Company Law Tribunal to seek a ban on two multi-national audit companies. Government seeks to ban BSR, under Section 140 of the Companies Act for five years.
It all started wit Infrastructure Leasing Financial Services (IL&FS) defaulting on a few payments. It failed to service its commercial papers on due date. The company's default spelled out trouble for its investors. Government took over the debt laden IL&FS and looked into the financials. The group has a debt of more than 910 billion rupees.
India's Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) filed fraud charges against the auditors.Investigations in IL&Fs lead to lacunae in audits. Deloitte audited IFIN from 2008-09 to 2017-18 and BSR started auditing it from 2017-18. Both Deloitte and BSR audited IL&FS Financial Services in 2017-18.
KPMG Network firms
BSR & Associates along with BSR & Co represent KPMG Network in India. These two firms are primarily involved in Audit practice. However, presence of KPMG is not limited to only Audit Practice. They have other companies in group such as
- KPMG India
- KPMG Advisory Services
- KPMG Global Services Management
- KPMG Resource Center
In the list created by corporate affairs ministry, name of Sampath Ganesh was mentioned prominently. He is the partner of BSR.
KPMG Ban and IL&FS
Audit of IFIN was performed by BSR for 2017-2018. KPMG Network firms were performing audit work for least 8 IL&FS group companies.
- IL & FS Investment Managers Limited
- Iiml Asset Advisors Limited
- IL& FS Asian Infrastructure Managers Limited
- IL&FS Engineering And Construction Company Limited
- IL&FS Financial Services Limited
- IL&FS Securities Services Limited
- IL&FS Urban Infrastructure Managers Limited
- ISSL Settlement & Transaction Services Limited
According to the government findings, audit firm has failed in performing their duties as an auditor. Though Deloitte Haskins and Sells and BSR claimed that their audits were conducted in full compliance of applicable laws.
Listed Clients of KPMG
Ban on KPMG network firm will have significant impact on Indian listed companies. More than 160 Listed companies are likely to find an alternate auditor. If other Big fours are facing the ban then these listed companies will have no option but to chose Indian firms.
KPMG have dominance in finance sector and their clients include following companies from the financial services sector
- Suryoday Small Finance Bank Limited
- The Federal Bank Ltd
- Rbl Bank Limited
- Sustainable Agro-Commercial Finance Limited
- Tata Motors Finance Solutions Limited
- India Factoring And Finance Solutions Private Limited
- Walton Street India Finance Private Limited
- Staragri Finance Limited
- Five-Star Business Finance Limited
- Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited
- Brick Eagle Affordable Housing Finance Limited
- Icici Home Finance Company Limited
- Mahindra Rural Housing Finance Limited
- Altum Credo Home Finance Private Limited
- Ensemble Holdings And Finance Limited
It is important to track the decisions of the various government agencies including the National Financial Reporting Authority and NCLT.

There are many pathways that people can take once they have decided to pursue a career in construction. The building industry has projected growth of roughly 25% over the next five years, which means that there will be jobs now and in the future. This is an important consideration for people who are looking to embark on a path that will ensure they can save for the things they desire and live the life they dream of.
What skills do I need to get the best construction career?
- It is important to be committed to continuous learning and always be looking to improve your skills and knowledge on an ongoing basis.
- You will need to have developed strong decision making skills, with the ability to make a choice among varying options.
- Digital technology has infiltrated every industry and building and construction is no different. People starting jobs in construction will need to be able to use computer applications and technical tools to operate machinery and manipulate information.
- Strong literacy and numeracy skills. Builders are required to read and write to a high level, ensuring they can convey their message and understand instructions. They will also need to perform calculations, making good maths skills a must.
- Job task planning and organisational skills. Often builders and constructions workers will be required to work independently to plan and organise daily tasks. This requires a good ability to be autonomous and mature to get the job done.
- Strong oral communication is needed when conveying or exchanging information verbally. Construction sites are often noisy and high pressure, making it vital to be able to get your message across clearly.
- Exceptional problem solving skills are needed to come up with solutions to challenges.
- People skills and teamwork. Sometimes you will have to work with a large team or just a few people, and regardless, it is important to manage your coworker relationships to get the job done.
How can I get started in a construction career?
There are a number of ways to get your construction career underway. The most common is an apprenticeship, which means you will be paid to work and learn and finish the course with a qualification. This is an important factor as you will be able to take your skills and apply them elsewhere.
The second way is through post-secondary training, such as a VET course at a TAFE institute. These courses involve a large amount of practical learning, but aren't in a true industry setting and you won't be paid for your time.
The other way to get into your dream career is to get a job as an entry-level construction worker. This will consist solely of on the job training and you won't have a qualification. This is a good option for those who didn't perform well at school, but have a good range of social skills and a practical mind.

The Shire of Cardinia engaged ratio:traffic to prepare a Car Parking Precinct Plan (PPP) for the township of Beaconsfield. The PPP is the next step in strategic planning for the township, following on from the Structure Plan which was adopted in 2013.
Beaconsfield is located 46 kilometres south-east of Melbourne on the southern foothills of the Dandenong Ranges. The central township includes a thriving neighbourhood activity centre with a mix of retail and commercial activities. The centre is set to grow as large-scale sites are redeveloped into more contemporary formats. The Car Parking Precinct Plan provides a blueprint for managing the transport demands of both emerging development and existing car parking resources across the centre.
The Car Parking Precinct Plan has recently been placed by Council on public exhibition, allowing the Beaconsfield community to review the directions of the Plan and provide feedback. Following the exhibition phase, the PPP will be finalised and formally adopted by Council.

So you want to give up smoking? E-cigarettes are being touted as the smoother way of kicking a tobacco addiction, but the jury is still out on whether this truly is the case. Part of the problem is medical studies aren't keeping pace with a booming industry that's busy developing new products.
"There are only a handful of randomised controlled trials and the earliest involved devices that have now been superseded by new technology," says Professor Chris Bullen of the University of Auckland's School of Population Health. "The newer, second-generation products are much better at delivering nicotine; some can deliver as much as the standard cigarette."
Smoking e-cigarettes, known as vaping, has quickly grown in popularity, especially in the US and Europe, where there are many devices to choose from. They mimic real cigarettes by heating a solution (e-liquid) that usually contains a blend of nicotine, propylene glycol and flavourings, producing a vapour the user inhales.
"There are thousands of flavours to make the experience more attractive," says Bullen. "Many people go with the tobacco flavour that most resembles their preferred brand of cigarette, but you can also get flavours like coffee and whiskey. In Europe, vape stores are on the main streets and are very slick, with beautiful products displayed in glass cases."
In New Zealand it's illegal to sell e-cigarettes as a tool to quit smoking. Although some devices are available in retail stores, any products containing nicotine can be imported only in small amounts for personal use, so there is a thriving online trade.
"What we do know is that most of these products, if they are decently manufactured, contain a lot less junk than cigarettes," says Bullen. They produce neither carbon monoxide nor many of the other chemicals that are known carcinogens."
Bullen carried out a trial in 2013 comparing e-cigarettes to nicotine patches, which showed similar rates of success in helping people quit smoking: 7.3% of the vapers and 5.8% of the patch wearers stopped. However, a subsequent population-based study from the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine found that smokers who used e-cigarettes were 59% less likely to quit than smokers who never used e-cigarettes.
"We found at six months that many people had become dual users," says Bullen. "This raises big questions. Is it good just to cut down on cigarettes? Is it a pathway to quitting or might it actually delay it?"
He believes vaping has the potential to become a substitute for cigarettes – like the opioid medication methadone is for users of the drug heroin. "You may well keep your nicotine addiction ticking over and it may be a socially acceptable addiction like coffee or alcohol. We need to have a discussion as a society – is this a reasonable alternative?"
With e-cigarettes now a multibillion-dollar industry and tobacco companies buying into it, this seems a discussion we urgently need to have. Although proponents may claim that after only a few days of switching to vaping users notice all the benefits of quitting, from easier breathing to a better sense of taste and smell, the long-term effects of this method of filling the lungs with nicotine haven't been proven.
"What happens if you vape 30 to 40 times a day over 30 years? No one knows what that does to your lungs," says Bullen.
There is also a concern that flavours like bubble gum and chocolate may attract younger people to vaping, creating a whole new market, as well as questions over whether improving the delivery of nicotine is a good or a bad thing. "People may not have to puff as hard, but will they keep needing more nicotine or will they reach a level where it's enough? That's an unknown."
Bullen is about to do another trial comparing new-generation e-cigarette devices with nicotine-replacement therapy. "We need more information so the Ministry of Health can decide how to regulate these products, and make sure they are as high quality and safe as possible."

- High yield
- Big roundoval/oval tubers
- Colour of skin: bright yellow. Colour of flesh: light yellow
- Dry matter content: 18.3%
- Cooking type B, practically no discoloration after cooking
- Resistant to potato cyst nematodes Ro1,
Growing instructions (table potatoes)
General remarks
This variety is suitable for the traditional markets and for the retail fresh markets, especially in Spain and Italy. The tubers are roundoval to oval shaped and can grow quite big. The colour of skin is bright yellow and the colour of flesh is light yellow. The cooking type of this variety is B with practically no discoloration after cooking. The dry matter content of Sultana is 18.3%.
Medium early.
Seed treatment
The Sultana has a n average dormancy period. Pre-sprouting is therefore advisable. Because Sultana is rather sensitive to small potatoes, this seedling should not be planted too early in the season and the soil should not be too cold.
Sultana has a reasonable scab resistance and can be grown on most soils. Use of the herbicide Sencor will most likely cause the leaves to turn yellow. This variety is rather susceptible to late blight. An early and regular treatment against this disease is advisable. Regular treatments against late blight are advisable.
In general we advise for Sultana a nitrogen fertilisation like the Monalisa. It is advisable to apply the nitrogen not too late during the season. Since this variety is rather susceptible to black spot, the application of potassium should be a little higher than common.
Sultana is rather susceptible to internal bruising. It is advisable to be careful on harvesting. The temperature of the tubers should preferably be above 12°C.
This variety has quite a long dormancy period and can be stored for a long(er) period.
Resistance to diseases
Resistant to Potato Cyst Nematode Ro1, 4. Susceptible to wart disease. Rather strong against common scab and spraing. Moderately susceptible to blight in the foliage and fairly resistant against tuber blight. Sultana is susceptible to PVY leaf symptoms, but strong against PVYntn in the tuber

While I think macros with spreadsheets are typically a bad idea, every once and a while you will find yourself writing one. Either to format a big spreadsheet quickly, change calculations, or add a bit of magic to your spreadsheet. However, one of the biggest downsides to using LibreOffice (LO) or Apache OpenOffice (AOO) is that the libraries included with these products are insanely more confusing to new users than say Microsoft's offering in their Office suite. Especially true if you are coming from a hard core background in MS Office, say like a power user of Excel or Access.
There are a ton of projects that are on-going to make LO and AOO, which both use the Universal Network Objects (UNO) framework to provide pretty much all of the functionality within the multitude of components within those suites, slightly easier to deal with. One of those is MRI which is a plug-in for LO and AOO that allows you to do UNO introspection. This allows you to browse easily the family of available UNO methods, objects, properties, and so forth. MRI is an indispensable first tool when doing UNO macro programming.
The download:
So you may ask, where can I get this MRI?! Well here's where you can get the latest version. The AOO site has the latest and greatest whereas the LO site only has version 1.1.2 stable and 1.1.4 pre-release, both of which only work with LO 3.x series.
The nice thing about both AOO and LO both using UNO is that a lot of extensions for one will work on the other. The downside is that because AOO and LO both use different versioning and they are slowly making their versions of UNO incompatible with each other (not out of spite but AOO is okay with Java depends and LO isn't, so LO is ditching a lot of interfaces that deal with that), their isn't a sure fire way to be absolutely sure that what works for AOO will work for LO and vice-versa.
Luckily, MRI works on AOO and LO versions 4. That includes LO 4.1, but do note that I have not tested MRI 1.2.1 on LO 4.2 which is the next release. There are quite a few changes in UNO in LO 4.2 so it will be interesting to see how MRI 1.2.1 works on that.
So once you download MRI, you'll need to add the extension to LO. To do that, head over to Tools | Extension Manager in the main menu. A dialog will appear
|Extension Manager dialog
In the dialog click the "Add..." button. This will open up a file browser. From the file browser, find the MRI extension that you downloaded. Once the extension is loaded, you'll need to restart LO to see the changes.
Double Check...
To double check that MRI was successful with the install. Head over to the Tools menu again and you should see an option called "Add-Ons". You should see in that menu "MRI" and "MRI ← selection". The difference between the two is that "MRI" executes the extension with the current document as the parent object, the other uses whatever is currently selected as the parent object.
|Make sure MRI is installed
With MRI you will now be able to perform introspection on the UNO tree, which as you will see soon enough, is pretty complex. MRI allows one of the most important functions that the MS Office suite gets by default in its Basic environment, an object browser. I will be referencing MRI a lot in the next few posts as I go over a bit of AOO/LO Basic. So this is a good first step with learning the UNO basic environment.

In this interview with Randy MacLean of WayPoint Analytics, I explain to Randy how using a two-pronged strategy or approach to concierge-level customer service will easily result in an increase in profitability. The first step to creating the strategy is to determine the true profitability of each customer.
First Prong: Your Most Profitable Customers
These are the companies to be laser-focused on delivering exceptional service to. Provide dedicated concierge reps who will:
– Have a mindset of service
– Take ownership of problems
– Make the company referable
– Create an incredible customer experience
Serve these customers well so that you can retain them and attract more business like them. Remember, these are your most profitable customers. This is where you want to roll out the red carpet service.
Second Prong: Everybody Else
The second prong of the plan ensures there is a floor to your level of service; the best you can provide, given profit, that puts you above the competition. The first step to determining the best you can do is to find out what is currently happening. Most companies have no real good data on this and have no finger on the pulse of what customers want and need.
How do you solve this? Get data. Find out what their biggest problems are, what keeps them up at night. Once you know this, you know how to sell to them, you know how to market to them, and you know how to serve them.
In setting up this second prong of a concierge level service program, you must gather feedback. This can be done with a continuous process improvement approach. For example, using a survey every 9–12 months as an ongoing source of information about how a customer feels about your service would be a powerful approach; it will arm your company with valuable information to help you serve your customers better than your competition can.
With a solid concierge level customer service program, you can beat service expectations for every customer, while giving personal service to those who are creating cash flow for your company.
Dr. Jeanne Hurlbert, President of Hurlbert Consulting, brings to her role as STAFDA's endorsed customer service consultancy expertise in sociology and survey research. After spending more than 25 years in academia, she now uses her extensive behavioral science expertise to help companies like yours distinguish yourselves through customer service. What sets her approach to customer service apart is that she begins by helping companies meld research and marketing to find out exactly (a) what their customers want and (b) how well they're succeeding in giving customers what they want. Jeanne provides STAFDA members with 30 minutes of complimentary consulting per year; please identify yourself as a STAFDA member when you contact her. You can schedule a consult with her by going to www.ConciergeCustomerService.com or you can call her at 888-590-9677.

As a journalist who lived through the siege of Sarajevo, I witnessed the ethnic cleansing, the burning of houses, the columns of refugees pouring from the country and, once, a dog running down the street with a human hand in its mouth.
I went to see Blood And Honey with an especially critical eye. I was on the lookout for inauthentic details, since other films I've seen about Bosnia left me irritated and annoyed: Why couldn't someone tell the true story of the brutal war in the heart of Europe at the end of the 20th century?
I emerged from Jolie's screening impressed. How could a woman who was only 17 when the conflict erupted in April 1992 have so captured the horror of a war that focused largely on indiscriminate and brutal attacks on civilians?
Jolie replicates the city of Sarajevo exactly as I remember it. The humanitarian trucks being rocketed by Serb gunmen; the young rape victim slowly losing her mind after being held in captivity and repeatedly violated; the drunken snipers targeting a father and son running across a bridge.
In the end, Jolie's film stays with you. Some scenes are as vivid and horrific as the real days of war. In one, Vanesa Glodjo leaves her infant at home while she goes to raid a bombed-out pharmacy because none of the neighbours has medicine. She comes home to find him dead from a sniper's bullet. Her screams of agony do not feel like acting.
Jolie's couple meet before the war, in a time when Sarajevo was a former Olympic city of art and music and poetry. Through their eyes, we see the disintegration of that cafe society — and, more important, what humans do to other humans to survive.
Family matters
With six children, Angelina Jolie still manages to travel lightly, without much security, writes Janine di Giovanni.
She talks about her family, how she is educating them in their own languages and cultures, how she loves to fly around the world but how hard it is to be separated from them when she is away. She talks about how someone "who never was a babysitter" knew how to take care of Maddox as a 27-year-old single mother. "I didn't know whether to give one bottle or 30 bottles," she says, laughing, of her son's infant days. "I called my mother."
Her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, a former actor and producer, who died in 2007 at 58, was a major influence. Jolie adored her. When Bertrand was dying, Jolie says, her mother told her she had done exactly what she wanted to do with her life, by simply taking care of her children. "Her goodness had a huge impact on me."

Field calls for Monitor to promote integration
By Gareth Iacobucci
The Government should consider placing a duty on Monitor to support integrated care to help ease fears over the use of competition in the NHS, the chair of the Government's listening exercise has advised.
Professor Steve Field told delegates at Tuesday's NAPC GP-led commissioning conference in London that feedback to the exercise had uncovered a raft of concerns about the possible negative impacts of competition on the NHS.
The Government's Health and Social Care Bill has outlined plans to expand the role of Monitor so that its primary focus is to promote competition, but critics have warned this will damage integration across the health service and threaten working relationships between GPs and hospital doctors.
Professor Field said: 'People want some choice and some competition. But what they don't want is their NHS destablised.'
'What we're picking up around the country are lots of concerns. One of my suggestions so far is that, if we are going to have the bill in some form as it is at the moment, I believe putting a duty on Monitor to support and encourage integrated healthcare around the patient might be one of those solutions.'
He told Pulse: 'I've been promoting, as part of the listening exercise for the last month, the idea that we might ask Monitor to have a duty to encourage or support integrated care.'

I understand there is a white paper being circulated by six credit union CEOs calling for the merger of CUNA and NAFCU into a new entity that would, according to the paper, better serve the needs of our industry. I respect those seeking to improve the credit union system and encourage more cooperation among our associations, but I do not feel that this is the time to be talking about a merger.
Here we are in the midst of a major financial crisis, one that many of have said approaches the Great Depression in its magnitude and severity, and once again trade politics has raised its ugly head. Now is not the time to argue over what is the best structure for a new trade association; now is the time for our existing associations to work together to ensure that credit unions have the regulatory tools they need to survive and continue to serve their members' needs in this time of economic uncertainty.
Rather than focus on whether one association is willing to talk merger or not, let's focus on the problems that need to be addressed, whether those are safeguarding our deposit insurance system, easing liquidity needs or working together on Capitol Hill to make sure credit unions are included in any new sweeping financial services legislation.
I personally don't have a stake in either organization. I do not serve on the NAFCU or CUNA Boards, although my credit union has been a member of NAFCU since 1983. I have defended NAFCU previously because I believe very strongly there should be an independent voice for federal credit unions.
At NAFCU's inception in 1967, some did not see the value of an independent trade association for federal credit unions. Yet there have been many accomplishments that clearly prove NAFCU's worth. These include the enactment of bankruptcy reform legislation that protects the right to reaffirm a member's debt, NAFCU's leadership in the California credit card case, and its active interaction with the NCUA to achieve needed FOM and chartering changes.
At times there are issues that galvanize our entire industry, like H.R. 1151, when the strength of both NAFCU and CUNA has been leveraged to secure passage of vital legislation. Today, there is the Credit Union Regulatory Improvements Act, which likewise is benefiting from the support of both groups. Multiple voices don't necessarily mean competing messages; in fact, several strong voices are often needed to cut through the cacophony that is Washington. Open and consistent communication among the trade groups is much more important in these instances than having a single association.
This isn't the time for dividing our industry with merger talks. Rather, it's a time for coordinated action on the part of all credit unions—and our two major trade associations—for the benefit of everyone in our industry. I understand that NAFCU has suggested that its leaders and CUNA's meet more regularly under the auspices of the National Legislative and Regulatory Coordinating Council. To me, that is a logical and positive first step towards greater cooperation.

Donbas militants attack Ukraine 10 times on Nov 19 – ATO HQ
Russia's hybrid military forces attacked Ukrainian army positions in Donbas 10 times on November 19, according to the press service of the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) Headquarters.
As reported, the Russian occupation forces fired on the Ukrainian strongholds, using weapons, including tanks, strictly prohibited by the Minsk agreements.
Read alsoAnother provocation in Donbas: Russian JCCC says Ukraine forces "shell" Donetsk filtration station"In the Luhansk sector, the hotter spot was near the village of Troyitske. The militants were shelling the Ukrainian strong points in the area from a tank, infantry fighting vehicles, 120mm and 82mm mortars, and grenade launchers for almost two hours. Russian-backed mercenaries also fired infantry weapons outside the villages of Zaitseve, Zhovte, and Krymske, as well as Donets station," the ATO HQ wrote on Facebook.
In the Donetsk sector, the invaders continue to concentrate their fire activity near the Sea of Azov. The defenders of the villages of Shyrokyne and Hnutove came under enemy from mortars of various types, while those stationed outside Pavlopil and Vodiane were attacked with grenade launches and small arms. Besides, militants fired several 120mm mortar rounds in the vicinity of Kamianka.
As UNIAN reported earlier, the situation in the ATO area somewhat escalated last night, with four Ukrainian soldiers reported as wounded in action.

More (and more) cruise ships to come!
The new year is just a few months old and we can already say this will be an exciting year for and in Cruise Port IJmuiden. As a result of the sudden introduction of a "tourist tax" for cruise passengers by the city council of Amsterdam, several major cruise lines decided to change their cruise calls from Amsterdam to Cruise Port IJmuiden.
More than sixty (!) "cruise calls" have already been confirmed and this amount may even grow; this means it will be a record-breaking year for the Port of IJmuiden and of course the Felison Cruise Terminals. On our extended calendar you can find all the confirmed cruise calls for this year.
As you can see, our website is (almost) free of advertisements as it is "privately sponsored" (quite frankly, by two persons only!). In the very near future however, some small advertisements and paid contributions may appear as maintaining this website and keeping it online turned out to be quite expensive. Yes, even a bit beyond the available budget. At this point it's not really a "must" to find companies interested in advertising on this popular website but this may change in het near future for the simple reason our goal that we want to keep this website up and running for the years to come. So, if you are interested in cooperating with us, please drop us a line. We are open to any good idea!
Last winter (a more quiet period in Cruise Port IJmuiden) we had the idea to change the layout of our website a bit. After trying and testing a lot of variations, we decided to keep this "old" version for another season as it not so easy to come up with something "fresh". And even more difficult, a new design has to be cross-browser compatible and completely responsive, which means is has to work on all kind of devices (desktop computes, phones, tablets and so on). So, this season you will not see major changes (although we keep on adding extra information) but next season we may come up with a new and improved website!
One of our wishes for the coming season is to create an electronic newsletter (e-zine) that we can send to our many 'fans and followers' around the world. This is also a project that takes a lot of time to develop so it may already be spring before our first e-zine will be published. But before that (that means, pretty soon!) you'll find a button on our website which will allow to subscribe already for our future publications!

CULVER CITY (CBSLA.com) — A year ago, local bodybuilder Mo Carmody was told he wouldn't live eight months.
He was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and his prognosis was not good.
The now 56-year-old had one goal — to rock the crowd at a men's physique competition being held Saturday at Veteran's Memorial Complex in Culver City.
And exultant Carmody didn't just rock the crowd, he also won an award.
He told KCAL9's Melanie Woodrow that even if he didn't come in first, he was a winner.
"I feel good, there were five in my class and I took fifth … better than taking nothing," he said.
Next time, the La Verne resident plans to take first.
"They haven't buried me yet. I'm still going to fight and keep going," he said.
Carmody told his physicians he wasn't going down without a big fight.
"I told the doctors, 'Before you put me in a hospice, full-time, give me a body bag. And I'll carry it in my gym bag and my surf bag,'" said Carmody.
He told Woodrow, on Saturday evening at least, he was able to look past his diagnosis, the tumors, his formerly grim prognosis.
"Tomorrow, it will be one year exactly when they said I wouldn't live 8-12 months," Carmody says.
For the past 16 weeks, he's trained twice a day to get ready for tonight's competition. He credits friends with helping him flourish — despite the odds.
"He is probably the most respected, honorable, admirable, encouraging and inspiring man I have ever known in my life," said friend Sandie Dubois
Carmody told Woodrow he planned on celebrating Saturday night — a little chocolate cake in his immediate future — and then it's back to the gym tomorrow.

Do You Have A BiFF?
It's an important question. A BiFF can change your whole outlook to the opposite sex, to love, relating, societies, work. A good BiFF is all good things rolled into one, a sort of Human Being Plus. I'd go so far to say the BiFF is like one of the X-Men. Wait, what's a BiFF, you say?
A BiFF my dear boys and girls, is a Bisexual Friend Forever. I'm a big believer in friendship with the opposite sex so my BiFF has to be a bisexual man. Let me tell you why BiFFs are so amazing. But first, what do we know about bisexuality?
Rainbows are everyone's favorite cause on the internet and we're steeped in images of men kissing men, women marrying each other and matched pairs everywhere. Where do we stand on people who swing both ways?
At one end of the spectrum is the Sex and The City school of thought that sees bisexuality as a kind of greed, of not wanting to settle with just one sort. At the other end…well, need we call it an end since it's pretty much the rest of the icebBoyerg? Yeah, anyone that's not matched into One Male-One Female is not human. That. Let's return to Sex and the City since that's pop culture's most recent revolutionary offering around sexuality. It's over ten years old and that in internet years, could constitute four generations. I don't know how bisexual people felt about it then but I'm not going to worry about that now.
Let's set aside the theory bits and let me tell you about what I've seen. My first interaction with an openly bisexual man was when we were out on our first date. He told me that he had kissed another man. And then he paused in his story. What I said went on to define who I am (and I'm so proud of this),
"Did you like it?" I asked.
When he completed his story, I thanked him for sharing something so private with me. He smiled and told me that it was test to see whether I'd think of him as weird. No, I thought considering, not really. It felt as normal as anything else and I couldn't find anything inside my reactions that felt revulsion. He went on to introduce me to John Mayer and Sex and the City. He was the only guy I knew who had even heard of the show, let alone owning the entire VCD collection. It would be a few years before I became involved in the rainbow cause and longer still for friends to start talking about their own bisexuality.
Here's what I know about bisexual men. They have none of the homophobic hang-ups of the straight men I've dated. This means, they're a lot more relaxed in their own skin. They aren't as horrified by women's power as most straight men (obviously or otherwise). They are not defined by limited notions of what constitutes manly behavior. Interestingly, some of them are even alpha males.
At the same time, they are not as weighed down by the discrimination meted out to the gay community (of course this may just be the specific people I know). They are not either screaming themselves hoarse waving rainbow flags or devolving into sulky passive-aggressiveness against straight people. Their sexuality is just one more thing about them, like the colour of their hair or their favorite food. Isn't that interesting now? By being pan-sexual, sexuality ceases to define them. Think about a man that is not defined by who he chooses to sleep with.
I've always thought that homophobia and low self-esteem are both led and reinforced by straight men. Okay, a very specific kind of straight man. It's that guy who keeps alive notions like, 'Ooh boys' night out! Because women are terrors to be gotten away from', 'Woman on top! Yay, porn! No, not in real life!' You can see why I think the Bisexual man is an advancement on this breed.
Once upon a time, the gay best friend was a fashionable idea, conjuring up images of boy/girl duos shopping for pastels and ogling men together ("Is he for you or for me?"). In reality, the friendships are nothing like that. Shopping and bird-watching are the most trivial of pursuits two people can undertake together. And with people who are supposedly as emotionally evolved as women and gay men, really is that the best one can come up with? In truth, I find the conversations boil down to who is feeling more marginalised, more discriminated against (Women, of course! We're the biggest mistreated minority in the world! But then I'm biased). If a conversation goes beyond that, it's because we are two people who like each, regardless of our sexuality. And the sexuality bit is just something that well, we don't have anything in common. Gay relationship dynamics are very different from straight ones.
But bisexual men make for great friends to women. They think like men but they are also able to relate to the way straight women think and feel. Picture this. You're getting ready for a first date with a hot guy. Turn and ask your caricatured gay friend for advice. Run around wheeing and clapping hands and jumping up and down. And then the rest of the week agonising about the date.
Instead ask your BiFF about the date. He'll give you a once-over and say,
"Looks good. Less lipstick. I know you like it but if I were him, I wouldn't want to kiss that. If you want to get kissed, lose the lipstick."
So you go, "Hmph. It's a first date. We are only going to have dinner."
"So?" he counters, "Don't you want to have sex with him?"
"I haven't thought about it," you bluster, "It's only the first date!"
"You met him on Tinder," he replies and looks away.
No, he isn't being respectful and giving you time to wipe your tears in private. He noticed someone hot walk across the room.
"Your hair looks really nice, by the way," he interrupts your stream of thought, as he starts to get up. "See you later."
He pays, his eyes never leaving his target and reaches for you with one arm. You sigh and resign yourself to the side-hug. "Call me if you need to get away" he whispers into your hair and vanishes.
Yeah, like I said, the BiFF is all things good about a man. What happens if your date is a creep and you have to call him and he's busy? Well, that's the subject for another post.

Bisexual males make great bff as long as they are responsible and transparent in their lovers.a woman married a bisexual guy who pretended he was hetro .and now both of them have the virus
It's due to the same reason that gay men are not allowed to donate blood. Not even to other gay men who were killed by the Muslim in Orlando last week. The public's disapproval of this is a great example of how political correctness and faux equality have trumped over scientific truths and common sense.
Shot/wounded*, doubt if the dead would want blood transfusions…

Pock's World by Dave Duncan
It's slightly unnerving for old guys like me when you start reading a modern book and find yourself immediately infected by the notion you've read it before. You intellectually tremble. Thinking processes are briefly considered. Is this the start of Alzheimer's disease where old memories resurface as we struggle to assimilate new information? So where's all this angst coming from? As a sign of my misspent youth, I read A Case of Conscience by James Blish in the early 1960s. Although I've been an atheist for as long as I can remember, this has never stopped me reading books directly or indirectly about religions. So I found this exploration of a Jesuit's reaction to a "godless" world completely fascinating, just as the exported alien's reaction to our paranoid Earth was equally riveting. As a fix-up, the narrative structure of the whole was flawed, but the writing was good. If you are interested in the history of science fiction and you have not already done so, it's a classic book you should consider reading.
So here we are all over again with Pock's World by Dave Duncan. A team is sent out to decide whether this titular world is to be quarantined and, possibly, sterilised, or allowed to continue as a part of the human community. The members are a devout Catholic, a megarich businessman, an independent-minded politician, an intelligent investigative reporter, and a bureaucrat with an agenda. The decision depends on what it means to be human. We could treat this as a strictly genetic test. If the chromosomes drift too far from a statistical norm we define as "human" we can say this is a step too far and put a stop to it before the whole gene pool is contaminated. Or we could look beyond the biology to decide at a metaphysical level when a creature is classifiable as human.
In one sense, this is the old cuckoo problem. If the next generation is going to be a species evolutionary shift, you had better kill the cuckoos before they push you out of the nest. But if these new creatures are really us, do we want to be responsible for killing our own children? This signals the first distinction with A Case of Conscience in which the world is "alien" and the discussion of humanity is tangential until the alien child is brought back to Earth. In Pock's World, the definition of humanity is centre-stage and made all the more difficult because, to help humans adapt to different environments, there has been genetic manipulation anyway. It has been easier to change humans to fit, rather than terraform the environments to suit our needs.
Unlike other books by Dave Duncan, there's a slightly wooden quality about this. There's a lot of infodumping and quite a lot of arguing for different points of view. While there's nothing inherently wrong with a book trying to be about ideas rather than "mindless" action, I found this rather slow-moving and uninvolving. That's not to say this is not clever. It is.
It's at this point that I draw a second distinction with A Case of Conscience. The focus of the early take on this theme of quarantining a world is inherently religious. Without getting too deeply into spoiler territory, Pock's World has a rather different perspective. Again the priest is an important character who must decide whether to pray for the world to be destroyed so that the spawn of the Devil cannot escape, or pray for the world to be saved so that the millions of innocent people have a chance to fight for their survival. Assuming, of course, that a fight will be required. But he's not the primary character. In the end, this is a book about sacrifice, not to say martyrdom. No matter what people believe, they base their actions on instincts and emotions, on calculations and hope for the best outcomes. Throughout time, individuals have died in fear or out of love, for their beliefs in a higher cause and in the knowledge that their sacrifice will be recognised and valued by future generations.
In a way, such sacrifices are what makes us human. No-one can see the future. Nothing is ever completely certain. So when individuals decide to die for a cause, they are trusting their judgements as to consequences. Depending on your point of view, this is evidence of nobility or stupidity or both or of some other qualities I have not identified. Motives explain choices, but do not necessarily justify those choices when others see the outcomes. It can all come down to luck that it works out right. In this case, it's all about the outcome of a coincidence when long-laid plans mature at the same time as an act of faith.
Overall, this is a book I admired more than I enjoyed. The story Dave Duncan sets out to tell is interesting once we get past the set-up. The problem is that the first view of the characters presents them as being quite unlikeable. I think, instead of a linear approach, it might have been better to start in medias res, and then have flashbacks to show relevant background information about the characters and how they got to the world. As it is, there's too much delay in getting to the important interactions. In particular, the movement through the entanglement system to Pock's World is unnecessary padding. When we needed to know, the characters could have explained the technology of movement between worlds, and introduced the basics of trade between groups of worlds. That way we appreciate salience and can relate to the information more meaningfully. So I express luke-warm support for Pock's World as a clever bit of mystery wrapped up in a science fictional context.
For other books by Dave Duncan, see The Alchemist's Apprentice, The Alchemist's Code, The Alchemist's Pursuit, Speak to the Devil and When the Saints.

I'm not going to lie. I love salt. I mean I REALLY love salt. In fact, I have been known a time or two to put just plain salt under my tongue to help me when I'm nauseous. I can't pretend I didn't like it.
The thing is, you need salt, but we get way too much sodium these days because we are a nation of convenience food. Salt is a preservative, so to make something shelf stable from now until oh say October of 2016, they will need to process it and load it up with preservatives. In this case, salt is the least of your worries, but just because there are a ton of chemicals in something that are worse than salt, doesn't mean the salt is less bad. If you read this blog at all, you probably know by now, that my goal is to get people to stop eating things that are prepackaged, and actually eat real food. I'm sure when you go shopping, you look at the labels to see how many calories are in something, or how much fat. Do you check the sodium? Do you read the ingredients that are actually IN the food? If you are looking to see what the calories are, I'm assuming it's because you don't want it to make you fat right? Because being fat is unhealthy? If you will take the time to check that, why not check out the rest of the label? You've already got the box turned around, just look a couple lines down. Here's another shopping tip…. If there is no label, and it doesn't have a shelf life of 6 months or more…. You're on the right track. Then you can control how much salt you are eating, and how salty your food will taste. Stephanie will have more on all the ins and outs of sodium here.
Salt is used to enhance the favors of food. It will unlock some of the favors basically. I've read somewhere that lemon juice and horseradish will do this too, but I can't find where, so don't quote me on that. The bottom line is this, you need salt, but you don't need as much as you're most likely getting. Pay attention to what you eat. I use kosher salt because it's cleaner, and less processed, but there are a ton of types of salt out there.
Now I can hear you all out there telling me that you don't have time to cook. You're BUSY! Yeah I get it, and I also say, you're wrong. With a little thought, and a sharp knife, you can make real food. I could make an Olympic sport out of sitting on my butt, and even I think this is just as easy.
Everyone feeds their kiddos those frozen, chunked and formed chicken nuggets, right?
Why not make them yourself?
Take several chicken breasts and slice them up.
I hate looking at raw chicken, isn't it gross looking?
Anyway, do a lot, bc it will keep in the fridge or freezer and you can eat on it all week. Drizzle this with a little olive oil and the juice of an orange and just a little salt. Mix them all together and let them hang out while you get a dipping sauce going.
Sweat a diced onion, four diced cloves of garlic, and the juice of one lime.
Then take about five tomatoes that you've peeled and seeded (by boiling for a couple mins and then dunking in an ice bath to make things easy)
Add the tomatoes and let them cook down while you grill the chicken. Yes I know there is no breading on this chicken, but 1) if you're feeding kids, they care less about the breading, and more about the dippability and 2) you're not filling up on all that fried breading that needs all the salt for flavoring.
Grill up your chicken strips.
When the chicken is done, pull it off the grill and blend up your sauce with another pinch or two of salt until its smooth. So in about 20 mins, you have roughly 2lbs grilled chicken strips, and four cups of the sauce. They both freeze well, and you can pull the leftovers out for a quick meal any time.
I know I said I wouldn't put pics of my son on here, but just to show how well this goes over……
That's a cute finger there….
Now, I'm going to tell you how to take this
And make your own fries and chips. Fast.
Just as a comparison, I made some frozen in a bag fries at the same time, and you know what? They finished at the same time. It is NO FASTER to use bagged potatoes.
Cut up your potatoes into fry shape.
Then arrange on a cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil,
Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 mins turning once. These cook faster bc they are not frozen. They're not even cold.
Let them rest on a paper towel, and sprinkle with salt. -see, you can use salt, but you control how much goes into your food.
Then they are ready to eat.
Now how about some potato chips?
By the way, you want to cut your potato faster? Square it off. that will save time peeling also.
I have one of these fancy slicer things,
And if I were going to do several potatoes or whatever I'm slicing, it's great. Mostly it collects dust because I can slice a potato and wash my knife in less time than it takes to wash the mandolin.
In fact, I timed myself to do this:
And then get them on here with a little olive oil, and in the oven:
And then get a drink of water, and start cleaning up, only to discover that I had forgotten I was timing myself.
It took me this long
Still think you don't have time to make fresh food?
Do the same here. 400 degrees for about 10 mins and then let rest on a paper towel while you sprinkle with salt and lime zest.
You know all that chicken you've got in the fridge?
Dice up about 1/3 cup and mix with 1/3c Greek yogurt, 1/4c cooked quinoa, 1/4c sliced grapes, juice of 1/3 a lime & 1 tsp chopped fresh dill, and you have a great lunch, plus no one knows it's leftovers!
Just about every morning I make my husband a breakfast sandwich. I didn't want him going to a fast food place for a crappy breakfast, so I started this. Yes, there is some processed food in it, and it is NOT gluten free, but it could be made gluten free.
I take a bagel thin and toast it, lay on a slice of Swiss cheese, heat up a slice of Canadian bacon, and fry an egg.
Again this is *****NOT GLUTEN FREE****
This has a total of 200 calories, 6.5 grams of fat, and 398 mg of sodium versus a certain McMuffin that has 300 calories, 12 grams of fat, and 780 mg of sodium. And it takes me no more time than it would take to sit in a drive through.
Now head on over to see what Stephanie has to say about sodium.

From readers – September 27, 2018
'I confess to almighty God …"
While attending Mass in various parish churches over the past couple of years, I have noticed that the Confiteor is often not said at the weekday Masses. I also noticed at one of the churches that it wasn't even said at the Sunday Mass. Mass is grounded on the very ancient Jewish custom of confessing before sacrificing, and it has been found in the oldest liturgies. The present Confiteor goes back to the 13th and 14th centuries. Before Vatican II, the Confiteor was said two times at Mass, as it was considered that important. It was said first before offering sacrifice, and then before the priest and people could receive holy Communion. It is time for the Church to be more firm on this matter: Once it was so important that it was said two times during Mass, and now it is often dropped completely.
William Petermeier
St. John, Dayton
Father Tom Margevicius, director of the archdiocese's Office of Worship, responds:
The current Roman Missal (the Ordinary Form of the Mass) has three options for the Penitential Act: the Confiteor; the text that begins "Have mercy on us, O Lord," to which the congregation responds, "For we have sinned against you"; or the three-fold invocations with the Kyrie ("Lord have mercy … Christ have mercy … Lord have mercy"). The priest-celebrant has the freedom to choose whichever of these he prefers. On some Sundays, especially in the Easter season, the entire Penitential Act can even be replaced with a sprinkling rite, and in some other Masses, such as a funeral or wedding Mass, the Penitential Act is omitted entirely. The Confiteor is normally required in the Extraordinary Form (pre-1962 Mass), but our current Missal offers other options because historically the Confiteor was a later addition to the Mass; it was not commonly part of our liturgy for the first 1,000 years of Catholic history. The current Missal continues to offer the Confiteor as an option but now also offers some of the liturgy's other, more ancient forms.
