The earlier in development you can identify defects and design problems in your software, the easier, and potentially cheaper, it is to fix them. If something is going to fail, you want to know about it as soon as possible. That way you can find a new solution and not waste any more time going in the wrong direction.
When waterfall was the dominant methodology, testing always came towards the end of development. The vast majority of companies have now made the shift to agile. However, elements of testing are often left until late in development and seen as an individual activity. If you don't start testing early, you are missing out on many potential benefits.
If you really want to get the best value from QA, testers should be in the software development life cycle right from the start. Experienced testers will do their homework and try to understand what key stakeholders and end users expect to see in the finished product. An early presence will also foster a greater understanding of the aims of your software and how development is being conducted.
Tester input can be enormously useful in the early stages when the design is still fluid. They'll typically have lots of experience using software and they'll be honest about their impressions. Testers can provide an alternative view, working as advocates for the end user. They can also potentially safeguard against the echo chamber effect inside the development team.
You can set-up automated tests from day one. They offer many advantages for developers. A good test automation framework reduces the overhead and
allows you to run tests frequently and get a good, real-time picture of your software's health. It also helps you in calculating your ROI.
Since modern software is often built and deployed incrementally nowadays, automation is a great way to prevent manual testers from getting too busy with regression testing. It frees them from repetitive tasks which are bad for morale, and allows them to apply their skills where they can add the most value.
You might consider going a step further and adopting test-driven development. Instead of writing your functional code, you write the test code first. Tests derive from concrete examples of desired functionality and they will fail until the developer implements the necessary feature. This approach can help keep the focus in the right place. It can also help to speed up development and enable a smoother process.
It makes sense to automate as much as possible. However, when it comes to assessing the overall quality and acceptance criteria for your release, you need manual insight. A well-thought out mix of the two will ensure you're releasing software that is as defect-free as possible. Overall, you're offering a high-quality user experience.
By incorporating testing early and building it into your development process at every stage, you can significantly boost development speed and efficiency, really leverage your tester's skills and ultimately improve the quality of your software.

The Hunger Games, by Susan Collins
Thursday, April 15th, 2010
WOW. I was swept up in The Hunger Games and finished it within 3 days. As a working mother of a toddler, that says a lot!
Imagine a future in post apocalyptic North America, where reality TV is taken to a gross extreme. A society of "haves" ruling a society of "have nots". Characters that you root for, cry with, and yet are also flawed in their own way.
I can't remember the last time I enjoyed reading a book as much as this one. Maybe The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, although I might have liked this one a tad more. Dragon had some slow parts, this one, not so much.
I am reading the sequel, Catching Fire now… More on that soon!

It was a perfect weekend for Britain's Lewis Gilbert at the X30 Euro Series opener with the KR Sport driver scoring maximum points at Salbris to take an early championship lead. The Winter Cup Champion, Mari Boya, was the best of the rest finishing 2nd place with Luca Leistra completing the podium in the final.
Absent from the podium, Georgi Dimitrov was the early favourite for the win after taking pole position on Friday afternoon. Boya and Gilbert weren't far behind with Alex Lloyd also looking strong in 4th place. A close session saw 35 drivers covered by one second with brilliant racing expected from the Juniors.
The all too familiar names of Boya and Gilbert were the most consistent in the heats taking two wins a piece to lock out the front row of the Pre-Final grid. Dilano Van't Hoff had a good run to finish 3rd but perhaps most impressively of all brand new to the class and championship in 2018, Josh Rowledge was an impressive 4th after the heats with his best finish being a 2nd in heat two!
Things had completely fallen apart for Dimitrov who failed to finish his second heat which dropped him to 18th in the standings. Alex Lloyd, Josh Rattican and Luke Preston all suffered from similar fortunes after having impressive qualifying performances but one bad result was proving hugely costly in a 51 kart grid.
The second chance heat provided no surprise victims with Tom Lebbon amongst the six drivers to qualify through to the final. The Brit would go on to gain 17 places in the Pre-Final.
The Pre-Final saw the Juniors put on a pretty good show for viewers tuned into the Telemundi Media live stream. It quickly became a three-horse race with Boya and Gilbert being joined at the front by Van't Hoff. All three took their turn to lead and it was a race that could have gone to all three drivers. But Van't Hoff was the driver who hit the front at just the right time leaving it until the last lap to steal victory from Gilbert.
However, that would change post-race with a five second front fairing penalty dropping the Dutch driver to 7th. Gilbert picked up the win, Boya a front row start for the final with Lloyd gaining six places to finish 3rd. Dimitrov had finally got his weekend back on track and finished 4th from 18th on the grid.
Drivers who weren't so lucky included Rowledge and Cian Shields. It was particularly disappointing for Rowledge who had been in contention for a podium up until that point.
The start of the final saw Lloyd replace Van't Hoff's position as he took the lead of the race early on. But as they have been all weekend both Boya and Gilbert eventually started to break away as the race moved into the second half. Behind our 'one to watch' Luca Leistra was calving his way through the field and cruised into a comfortable 3rd position. But out front there was still the small matter of the race win to settle and a three tenth lead going into the last lap was enough for Lewis Gilbert to take round one victory ahead of Mari Boya.
Just off the podium Dimitrov and Van't Hoff completed the top five. There was an impressive performance from Shields who gained 16 places on his way to 8th. Preston gained 11 places to finish 11th, but the driver who gained more than anyone was Rowledge who gained 19 places to finish 13th despite a penalty. Early race leader, Lloyd also picked up a penalty and dropping him from 6th to 12th.
In terms of the championship Gilbert leads the way on 89 points, with Boya 2nd on 85 points and Dimitrov 3rd on 80 points.
The next round of the championship will take place at Mariembourg (BEL) on the 24th – 27th May.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – It's estimated that nearly 1 out of every 13 kids has a food allergy. That means, the foods many of us eat kids with food allergies can't try or even go near!
New research though suggests exposing kids to the very foods that can make them sick might be the best way to get rid of that food allergy.
"It's milk, eggs, wheat, nuts and tree nuts," explains mom Jessica Conrad.
There's a long list of foods banned from the Conrad household in Carmel. While parents Jessica and Matt do not have food allergies, their children, Tommy and twins Kate and Elyse, do.
The parents first noticed eczema on the children's skin, which is a food allergy red flag.
"When Tommy was this age, we gave him baby yogurt. He didn't want it. He was nothing but one big hive," says mother Jessica Conrad.
Adds father Matt, "There are different levels of worry with food allergies. That is what it is. It's always in the back of your mind."
Dr. Mark Holbreich with Allergy and Asthma Consultants in Indianapolis says the most common food allergies are peanut, egg, milk and some tree nuts. The allergist says it is best to introduce these foods to your children well before their first birthday.
"Food allergies are becoming more common in children particularly. It is when your body reacts to a food protein as something foreign, like a bee sting or pollen. Your body has an allergic reaction. Generally, the earlier you introduce foods the better it is," says Holbreich.
In fact, a new landmark study released in Europe last year showed a "carefully supervised" introduction of peanuts to high risk children reduced their risk by 80 to 90 percent.
"The important thing about this study is that parents that have a child with food allergy and planning to have another or are pregnant or a young infant is showing signs of eczema which is dry scaly skin or eaten egg and have hives, they need to be evaluated," explains Holbreich.
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease will be publishing official new guidelines in January as to how early parents can introduce peanuts to children. For high-risk kids, it could be as early as four months.
The early introduction trial did confirm that the Conrad twins are allergic to peanuts, just like their older brother. It's good information because blood tests aren't always accurate.
"We gave them spoonfuls of peanut butter and crossed our fingers. You go in and you are feeding them the food that they are deathly allergic to. It is scary!" says Jessica.
Long term, the Conrads hope their children grow out of their food allergies, but Holbreich said only 10 percent of kids will outgrow a peanut allergy.
"Our message we give families is your children should not be identified by their food allergies. When you spend your life avoiding food, it takes away from the pleasures of life. We want them to enjoy their life and have a safe life," says Holbreich.
Earlier this month, a new study published by the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology showed a tiny skin patch may help treat peanut allergies. The patches were most effective for kids ages 4 to 11 with peanut allergies. More research is needed.
If you think your child is suffering from a food allergy, it's best to see an allergist right away because early introduction is key to getting rid of food allergies.

A Minooka motorcycle collision resulted in fatal accident injuries to the motorcyclist. This fatal Minooka motorcycle collision occurred on Saturday (July 13, 2019) morning.
Details on this Minooka motorcycle collision appear limited at this time. The cause of the collision, which involved the motorcycle and another vehicle, is not publicly disclosed.
The accident happened at Ridge Road and Prairie Ridge Drive.
An excerpt regarding this Minooka motorcycle collision, from the July 15, 2019 The Herald-News article titled "Plainfield community officer dies after Minooka motorcycle crash":
On Saturday morning, Tyler Dufour of Channahon was driving a motorcycle when he collided with another vehicle at Ridge Road and Prairie Ridge Drive, according to the DuPage County Coroner's Office. Dufour was airlifted to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove, where he was pronounced dead. Minooka police are investigating the crash but could not be reached for comment.
Dufour, 22, was a Community Service Officer for Plainfield.
Additional details and possible updates can be seen in a variety of media sources, including the article mentioned above as well as the July 13 Plainfield Patch article titled "Plainfield Community Service Officer Killed in Motorcycle Crash."
Motorcycle accidents can happen for many reasons. A discussion of these reasons is seen on the "Motorcycle Accident Injuries And Fatalities In Will County" page.
An excerpt:
Generally speaking, there are two reasons for motorcycle accidents. Motorcycle accidents can be caused by the actions of the motorcyclist (i.e. the motorcyclist was at fault in the accident) or the motorcycle accident can be the fault of another party, such as a motorist who is driving negligently.
As discussed on that page, riders who have been hurt during a crash that was not their fault can likely pursue injury compensation through the filing of a personal injury lawsuit. For fatal motorcycle accidents, relevant parties can file a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of the decedent (motorcyclist and/or motorcycle passenger that was killed in the crash.)

I wanted to comment on the responses from Masterson's lawyer and scientology's anonymous "spokesperson" (Dave come on out...). First, lawyer Marty Singer's quote: This is fairly typical.

This is a spot i have been looking for a long time. Small mining camp/village that moved and a lot of name confusion. Finally found a 1830-50 GLO map that had it marked at 2 places. Don't look like much but a couple of those cuts are open pit mines and the GLO shows village boundery and BLD sites. Old histories have a few tales about the place. One character had all ready wore his welcome out in Wis. ILL. fighting & causing trouble. (not states yet) then came here. He drank badly and threatened a guy second hand and that guy shot him on sight at this place. Before that he made the town marshal dance, climb trees and other amusements 1 day. Now to talk to the owner, at least i have met him yrs ago and know his brother in law.

New and improved Maxi Minerals – All Your Mineral Needs In One Dose with Resveratrol, CoQ10 & Vit D3
It is now common knowledge that our soils are depleted of most important minerals and have for the past 30 years. This has resulted in many health problems.
All things in this world, even the earth itself, is built upon a foundation of minerals. Minerals are essential to the cells and systems of our body. Without the proper minerals, our body systems and cells will not function as they should. Minerals are necessary for 95% of the body's daily function and one of the most important is sulphur, which is needed for our bones, hair, nails skin, reducing inflammation and so much more.
So many minerals are lacking in today's food supply that even three balanced meals per day will not supply the needed minerals for metabolic compliance. Today's food supply is grown in soils depleted of trace minerals by over-use and industrial methods.
Now, more than ever, we all need essential minerals. In this new century we are faced with many stress factors like pollution, drugs, processed fast food and around-the-clock activities. Our lifestyles require evolving mineral intake to balance those changes that now effect our eating patterns and conditions.
Minerals are essential for your body for optimal health, although when they are pure, you do not need large doses of them. Minerals support immune system function, energy, metabolism and antioxidant protection, bones, hair, nails, skin, brain function and strengthen the body and also helps with energy.
Powdered pure minerals are a type of mineral supplements that offer better absorption in your body due not being in a pill or capsule form which both contain binders, fillers and other excipients. Ultimate Mineral powder is the most powerful and absorb-able mineral combination you can get, as they are pure and are derived from plants or the earth with nothing else added.
Importance of Minerals
Minerals are important for every function of the human body, further, minerals play a vital role in your nerve impulse transmission and muscle contraction and support the release of energy from food in your body.
Fertile prehistoric soils of the old world were rich in minerals. Plants and animals grew to tremendous size in short time spans. The plant life in these fertile soils collect minerals during the growing process and were passed on through the food chain as minerals easily absorbed by consumers of the plants.
Today's soils are so depleted in trace minerals and other important minerals that we must extract these essential absorb-able minerals from layers of old world plant deposits.

Hello all.
I rescued a bearded dragon about two weeks ago now and he had his first vet check yesterday.
What I thought was stuck shed actually turned out to be a suspected fungal infection the vet was concerned about being yellow funguS.
He did say, however, that the swabs looked mostly bacterial, but there were things that could be fungal in the sample he took.
What are the chances of this being something easily curable with that description?
I'd think, if it was actually yellow fungus or any fungus, it wouldn't be bacterial at all?
The vet also said he didn't see any spores, which he said was a good sign.
The dragon is on ditrium and itraconazole with a daily soak in Novaslan. I'm also to apply lamisil to the area once daily.
It appears to already be treating the areas affected, however, I'm also not naive enough to think that wishful thinking may play a part.
Any and all advice is appreciated.
Here are some pics.
The one picture is from the vet picking trying to see what was going on. The wound is already healing nicely, surprisingly.
I'm a new dragon owner and am more than a little scared.

Writer: John McNamara (Screenplay) Bruce Cook (Book)
Starring: Bryan Cranston, Diane Lane, Helen Mirren, Michael Stuhlbarg, David Maldonado, John Getz, Laura Flannery, David James Elliott, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Alan Tudyk, John Goodman, Stephen Root, Roger Bart, Ellie Fanning
Plot: In 1947, Dalton Trumbo was Hollywood's top screenwriter, until he and other artists were jailed and blacklisted for their political beliefs.
There may be spoilers the rest of the review
Verdict: Good History Lesson
Story: Trumbo starts with Dalton Trumbo (Cranston) a registered communist who classing with other people in Hollywood including heavyweights John Wayne (Elliott) on his beliefs that that the government shouldn't be able to look into everything the American people do. Even with these beliefs Dalton gets one of the biggest deals any writers have ever been offered in Hollywood.
The government decides to take on the communists in Hollywood believing they are trying to use movies to pull in the audience to join them. Gossip writer Hedda Hopper (Mirren) wants to use her column to expose the communists while leaning on the head of studios to fire all the communists involved in the infamous Hollywood 10 as they look to defend themselves.
After being sent to prison for his beliefs he ends up having to rebuild his career and he turns to Frank King (Goodman) who can't pay the writers the same level but he and the blacklist writers all work to get their screenplays around Hollywood.
Trumbo gives us a look at the Americans and how they treated the people involved. I never personally understood what all this communist un-America talk really was and still don't know enough to true judge how well this film portrays it all. I did like the story being re-told in a good way showing how even when people bring people down they won't stay down however hard it is on the family. This really just more on a history lesson but is important.
Actor Review
Bryan Cranston: Dalton Trumbo was one of the most respected writers in Hollywood who was a communist, he gets charged for his crimes ending up in prison. Once released he ends up leading the fellow blacklisted writers in a movement to get themselves recognized in Hollywood once more. Bryan is brilliant in this role fully becoming the character.
Diane Lane: Cleo Trumbo is the wife of Dalton she tries to keep the family together while Dalton stands up for his beliefs, she stands up to him when needed without coming off over demanding. Diane is good in the supporting role but doesn't get too much screen time.
Helen Mirren: Hedda Hopper is the gossip writer who along with John Wayne tries to out all the communist employees in Hollywood, she goes out her away against Dalton even when he starts trying to make a comeback. Helen is good but we don't see enough of her to learn enough about her character.
Support Cast: Trumbo has great supporting characters who are all names the fans of Hollywood would enjoy watching.
Director Review: Jay Roach – Jay gives us a good and important story that we would need to know to see the struggles of the people who were outed as communists.
Biographical: Trumbo gives us a great look at one of the most important screenwriters of all time.
Settings: Trumbo re-creates the settings to make everything look like we are part of the time period.
Suggestion: Trumbo is one to try, I do think some people will find it difficult to watch but it is a good lesson. (Try It)
Best Part: Cranston is brilliant.
Worst Part: We don't learn enough about Hedde.
Believability: Based on the real story of Dalton and the communist time period.
Chances of Tears: No
Chances of Sequel: No
Post Credits Scene: No
Awards: Nominated for 2 Golden Globes
Oscar Chances: Could easily get nominations
Runtime: 2 Hour 4 Minutes
Tagline: When they tried to silence him, he made the world listen.
Overall: Brilliant story even if we only see one side of it all

You know what having three kids in five years will give you LOTS of–besides incredible memories, tons of slobbery baby kisses and about a thousand pacifiers that *I promise you*, you will somehow NEVER be able to find at the exact moment when you and your wailing child need them? WRINKLES. Lots of wrinkles.
Blame the lack of sleep, the stress of trying (and failing) to get kids to school on time, and the actual keeping alive of another human being with interminable nursing, or any of the other bajillion reasons, but parenthood is stressful, man. And stress is just one of the factors that makes skin straight-up BLAH.
I can't get Botox at the moment (see "interminable nursing" above), but as soon as this baby is weaned, you bet your bottom dollar that mama is headed face-first into a waiting needle or ten, eager to wipe off the visible effects of the past five years.
In a bid to get the best and most up-to-date info on Botox, I interviewed the awesome Dr. Ruth Yeilding of YMD Eye & Face, whose practice is in Winter Park, Florida, and she filled us in on everything we need to know to about Botox.
Consider this your Botox 101 course! Let's cover the basics.
CHECK OUT THE VIDEO and read below for more!
Don't Be Scared of the Needle!
Botox is an injectable, meaning it's administered by syringe, which means (duh), a shot. But don't be scared! The needle is tiny compared to what you're probably used to with typical shots, and it's a fairly quick ordeal.
…But Do Prepared for Quite a Few Sticks
On the other hand, you will likely need more than one injection, so prepare for that, and also for them to be done in areas that are kind of sensitive. Think: Right at the corners of your eyes, on your forehead, and maybe even other parts of your face. Check out the video to hear the different places Dr. Yeilding administers Botox to smooth out her patients' faces.
Don't Expect Immediate Results
Botox takes a few days to set in; most patients only experience the "freezing" effects starting days later. So it will likely be anywhere from 3-7 days before you see the full effects.
It Can Give You a Bit of a Lift, but Don't Expect Miracles
Dr. Yeilding gets into this in detail in the video, so be sure to give it a listen, but here's the gist: You can experience a slight lifted look along the brow line in particular, but it won't mimic the more drastic effects of an actual surgical procedure.
Get Ready to Pony Up a Couple Times Per Year (at Least)
Like all good things, Botox can't last forever. Prepare to schedule a couple appointments a year, since most women experience a slight wearing-off of the effects within anywhere from 3-6 months–that is, if you want to stay frozen. Some women prefer to let the freeze fade, and then go back to regular expression, the thought being that the short break you've given to those typically-contracting muscles will slow down the overall progression of aging.

5:2 Fasting Diet
Tweet The 5:2 intermittent fasting (IF) diet, more commonly referred to simply as the 5:2 diet, has become one of the more popular diet plan in recent years. Studies have shown that the diet helps with weight loss and may also reduce insulin resistance, both of which are of particular interest for many people with type 2 diabetes or borderline diabetes. One reason for the popularity of the diet is that it allows a certain amount of flexibility, in comparison to low calorie diets, on most days of the week. Theory behind the diet The idea of the diet is that short periods of fasting prompt the body to repair damage but not enter a starvation mode of conserving energy. Whilst the theory has yet to be conclusively proved, clinical studies have shown promising results for the diet, however it has only been examined over relatively short time spans, of less than a year. How the 5:2 diet works The 5:2 intermittent fasting diet is based on a simple idea. 5 days a week you stick to meeting the daily calorie intake advised for people of a healthy weight, that being: 2,500 kcal per day for men 2,000 kcal per day for women For the other 2 days each week, the diet stipulates that you have only around 25% of the values above, which is equal to: 600 kcal on these days for men 500 kcal on these days for women The fasting days can be taken at any time during the week as long as you do not take 2 fasting days consecutively. Benefits of the 5:2 diet Clinical studies have shown that the benefits of intermittent fasting are largely similar to those of a calorie restricted diets. The most commonly reported benefits among people from following the 5:2 diet: Research has shown that periods of fasting can help to improve life expectancy and decrease risks of diseases including nerve disorders, Continue reading >>
Type 2 Diabetes And Intermittent Fasting
One researcher says occasional fasting can reverse type 2 diabetes, but other experts arent so sure. Getty Images Three men with type 2 diabetes were able to stop insulin treatment altogether after intermittent fasting, but experts are warning that people shouldnt try such a practice on their own. A small study published in BMJ Case Reports looked at three men between the ages of 40 and 67 who tried occasional fasting for approximately 10 months. All of the men were able to stop insulin treatment within a month after starting the intermittent fasting. One of the men was able to stop insulin treatment after only five days of the fasting technique. This study shows that a dietary intervention therapeutic fasting has the potential to completely reverse type 2 diabetes, even when somebody has suffered with the disease for 25 years. It changes everything about how we should treat the disease, Dr. Jason Fung, author of the study and director of the Intensive Dietary Management Program , told Healthline. Fungs assertions that type 2 diabetes can be reversed is contrary to the views of other diabetes experts who spoke with Healthline. Its potentially dangerous to tell patients their diabetes has been reversed, because one is always at risk for progression, even if not being treated by medication, Dr. Matthew Freeby, director of the Gonda Diabetes Center in Los Angeles and the associate director of diabetes clinical programs at the David Geffen UCLA School of Medicine, told Healthline. Dr. Robert Gabbay, chief medical officer at the Joslin Diabetes Center in Massachusetts, agrees. We dont think of reversing it, but more that it is in remission. Still need to screen for complications as far as we know, he told Healthline. More than people in the United States have diabetes and, Continue reading >>
Can Intermittent Fasting Cure Type 2 Diabetes?
Can intermittent fasting cure type 2 diabetes? Question: I have type 2 diabetes and Ive heard that intermittent fasting could cure me. Is this true? Answer: In recent years, intermittent fasting has emerged as a novel way of treating patients with type 2 diabetes. There are anecdotal reports of patients who have lost weight, their blood sugar levels have improved significantly, and they no longer need to take their diabetes medications. Their disease appears to be in remission if not exactly cured. However, endocrinologists the doctors who routinely treat diabetes as well as dietitians, are skeptical. They point to a lack of major studies that prove this approach is effective and safe long term. After all, intermittent fasting requires a big change in eating habits and it remains to be seen how many people can stick with it. The first thing you need to know is that there are different ways of doing intermittent fasting which is basically not eating for certain periods of time. For instance, you could restrict your consumption of food to just eight hours a day say from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and eat nothing else for the other 16 hours. Or, you might have just one meal a day and then fast for 24 hours. Another approach is to eat normally on some days of the week, while significantly curbing calories on other days. Fasting has been part of human culture for thousands of years. Most of the major religions encourage their believers to restrict food intake during certain times. But the use of fasting to treat diabetes is relatively new. The idea has been popularized internationally by Dr. Jason Fung a nephrologist (kidney specialist) at Scarborough Hospital and medical director of the Intensive Dietary Management Clinic in Toronto. Through a series of books and YouTube videos, Dr Continue reading >>
Type 2 Diabetes Reversal — The Quick Start Guide
Type 2 Diabetes Reversal — The Quick Start Guide How to Reverse Type 2 Diabetes — The Quick Start Guide Twenty years ago, when you bought a brand sparkly new VCR machine, you would also get a thick instruction manual. Read this thoroughly before you start, the manufacturer would implore. There would be detailed setup procedures and troubleshooting guides. Most of us ignored the manual, just plugged it in and tried to figure out the rest. That's why we all had the blinking 12:00 on. Today, most new electronics now come with a quick start guide which has the most basic 4 or 5 steps to get your machine working and then anything else you needed, you could reference the detailed instruction manual. Instruction manuals are just so much more useful this way. Well, I don't know much about VCRs, but I do know about type 2 diabetes. I could write an entire book about obesity (oh, wait, I did that already), or fasting (oh, wait, done too) or type 2 diabetes (next up for 2018). But many of you will not want to go through the entire instruction manual. So this is your quick start guide for reversing your type 2 diabetes. A Fully Reversible Disease Most doctors, dietitians and diabetes specialists claim that type 2 diabetes is a chronic and progressive disease. The American Diabetes Association, for example, almost proudly proclaims this on its website. Once you get the diagnosis, it's a life sentence. But, it's actually a great big lie. Type 2 diabetes is almost always reversible and this is almost ridiculously easy to prove. This is great news for the more than 50% of American adults who have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes or diabetes. Recognizing this truth is the crucial first step in reversing your diabetes or pre-diabetes. Actually, it something that most people a Continue reading >>
Intermittent Fasting The Best Diet For Type 2 Diabetes?
Intermittent fasting the best diet for type 2 diabetes? in Dr. Jason Fung , Intermittent fasting , New study Type 2 diabetes was once thought to be a chronic disease that could never be cured. You can start medications to control it, but those medications will be with you for life. Now we know better. As Dr. Jason Fung has said, People are focused on giving drugs to type 2 diabetes, but it is a dietary disease. He and his team at Intensive Dietary Management Program set out to prove that they can do better than drugs. They recently published a case report of three men with type 2 diabetes who were able to completely stop their insulin and most of the oral drugs while still improving their diabetes control. BMJ: Therapeutic use of intermittent fasting for people with type 2 diabetes as an alternative to insulin How did they do it? Intermittent fasting. The subjects fasted for 24 hours three to four days per week, going from dinner to dinner without food, while eating lunch and dinner on the other days. They lost between 10 and 18% body weight and between 10 and 22% from their waist circumferences. Starting from a daily average of 70 units of insulin, they safely stopped their insulin as quickly as five days into the protocol, with the longest taking only 18 days. That is a dramatic result! Importantly, they were very closely monitored by the team at IDM. Fasting while taking diabetes medications can increase the risk of hypoglycemia, a potentially life-threatening lowering of blood glucose. Thus the warning that people should not try this without being monitored by an experienced healthcare provider. When done correctly, however, intermittent fasting combined with a low carb diet may be the best treatment of type 2 diabetes that we have ever seen. Dr. Fung's fasting cou Continue reading >>
Can Short Fasts Help Reverse Type 2 Diabetes?
Can Short Fasts Help Reverse Type 2 Diabetes? WEDNESDAY, Oct. 10, 2018 (HealthDay News) -- Occasional fasting may help control type 2 diabetes , a small Canadian study suggests. "The use of a therapeutic fasting regimen for treatment of [ type 2 diabetes ] is virtually unheard of," said Dr. Jason Fung, of Scarborough Hospital, in Ontario, and colleagues. But this trial showed that 24-hour fasting regimens can significantly reverse or eliminate the need for diabetic medication , the study authors said. Three men, aged 40 to 67, were taking various drugs and daily insulin injections to control their diabetes . They also had high blood pressure and high cholesterol. After a six-hour training seminar, two of the men fasted on alternate days for a full 24 hours, while the third fasted three days a week. On fast days, they were allowed to drink very low calorie drinks (tea/coffee, water or broth) and to eat one very low calorie meal in the evening. All three were able to stop their insulin injections within a month of starting their fasting schedule. For one man, this took only five days. Two were able to stop taking all their other diabetes drugs, while the third stopped three of four diabetes drugs, the study authors reported. The trio lost between 10 percent and 18 percent of their body weight and reduced their blood sugar levels, which may help lower the risk of future diabetes complications, according to the study. The findings were published Oct. 9 in the journal BMJ Case Reports. Because this was an observational study that included just three patients, it's impossible to draw firm conclusions about the use of fasting to treat type 2 diabetes, the researchers noted. Still, the results are noteworthy, given that one in 10 Americans and Canadians have type 2 diabetes, t Continue reading >>

Intermittent Fasting May Help Fight Type 2 Diabetes
Enter your email address to subscribe to our most top categories Intermittent fasting may help fight type 2 diabetes Lifestyle changes are key in the management of type 2 diabetes. Scientists believe that intermittent fasting could play an essential role. Lately, intermittent fasting has become incredibly popular. Type 2 diabetes is the most common type. The condition affects the body's ability to produce insulin , which regulates blood sugar levels. Diabetes is widespread in both Canada and the United States, and in the U.S., it is one of the leading causes of death. The American Diabetes Association report that the total estimated cost of treating diabetes is now over $200 billion per year. Lifestyle changes are crucial to managing the disease, and eating habits play a key role. Doctors normally recommend that people with diabetes follow specific diets. The effects of a specific diet may differ from person to person, but in general, those with diabetes should avoid processed foods, artificial sweeteners, and refined carbohydrates . Intermittent fasting could be a way to manage diabetes through diet. Intermittent fasting is a type of diet in which people cycle between periods of eating and fasting. It does not specify the foods that are allowed during the eating window. The most common type of fasting is known as the 16:8 method, which involves fasting for 16 hours and reducing the eating window to just 8 hours. For example, a person can have dinner at approximately 7 p.m., skip breakfast the day after, and eat lunch at around 11 a.m. Other forms involve fasting for 2 days per week, 24-hour fasting once or twice each week, and fasting every other day. Researchers used intermittent fasting as a method to reduce the symptoms of type 2 diabetes in a new observational stu Continue reading >>

Planned intermittent fasting may help to reverse type 2 diabetes, suggest doctors writing in the journal BMJ Case Reports after three patients in their care, who did this, were able to cut out the need for insulin treatment altogether. Around one in 10 people in the US and Canada have type 2 diabetes, which is associated with other serious illness and early death. It is thought to cost the US economy alone US$245 billion a year. Lifestyle changes are key to managing the disease, but by themselves can't always control blood glucose levels, and while bariatric surgery (a gastric band) is effective, it is not without risk, say the authors. Drugs can manage the symptoms, and help to stave off complications, but can't stop the disease in its tracks, they add. Three men, aged between 40 and 67, tried out planned intermittent fasting to see if it might ease their symptoms.

Intermittent Fasting May Put Type 2 Diabetes In Remission, Small Study Finds
During intermittent fasting, you'll avoid eating on certain days of the week or hours of the day. Could restricting your diet for a couple of days a week put type 2 diabetes in remission? Thats the controversial claim scientists of a small new study are making as they fan the fire around a diet fad known as intermittent fasting . But many health professionals, including those at the American Diabetes Association, argue that the approach can be dangerous for people with diabetes , whose bodies cannot control their blood sugar without careful diet, medication, and sometimes insulin management. In the study, published October 9, 2018, in the journalBMJ Case Reports , intermittent fasting, in which eating is limited during certain times of the day or week, reportedly helped three middle-aged men with type 2 diabetes lose weight, get off their insulin, and reduce or get off their oral medication. The problem is we dont treat diabetes as a dietary problem; we treat it with a lot of drugs, and that never addresses the root problem of the diabetes, says principal investigator Jason Fung, MD, a kidney specialist at Scarborough and Rouge Hospital in Toronto, Canada, and author of The Complete Guide to Fasting,and The Obesity Code, a 2016 book thought to help popularize intermittent fasting . RELATED: Is Intermittent Fasting Safe for People With Diabetes? The Effects of Intermittent Fasting on Weight and Blood Sugar About 90 percent of people with type 2 diabetes are obese or overweight, according to the Obesity Society . Weight loss is a known treatment for type 2, which affects the majority of the 30.3 million people with diabetes, as it helps people with the disease reduce insulin resistance and absorb blood glucose more effectively. According to the Centers for Disease Contro Continue reading >>
Fasting Cures Type 2 Diabetes – T2d 4
While many consider Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) irreversible, fasting has also been long known to cure diabetes. In our previous post, we considered bariatric surgery. While extreme, these surgeries have proven the point that the metabolic abnormalities that underlie T2D (hyper insulinemia, insulin resistance) can often be fully reversed after a short (weeks) period of intensive treatment with bariatrics. Many early studies were done with the heavy-duty Roux-en-Y surgery, which is the heavyweight champions of surgeries. The best weight loss. The most complications. This is the surgery that has 'Go Big or Go Home' tattooed on its massive bicep. But even milder forms of bariatric surgery show the same reversibility of T2D. A gastric band is essentially a belt implanted around your stomach. They keep tightening the belt so that you can't eat. If you try to eat too much, you'll puke it all back up. Loverly. It ain't pretty, but it sure do work. Again, long term results are kind of iffy, but short term results are pretty good. You can see the results of gastric banding versus medical treatment from the graph above. Patients randomized to the gastric band showed a significant and pretty damn good drop in their fasting blood sugars. In other words, T2D was reversing in a b-i-g way. Those given medicines alone didn't do very well at all. Basically they stayed the same. They were no better than before. So, yes, even gastric banding these 500 pound patients with 20 years of diabesity can reverse within weeks even before the weight comes off. One of the main questions is why? There are many hypotheses – which we will consider in a later post, but it is the sudden severe restriction of all calories that causes this beneficial effect. This is the same thing as the time teste Continue reading >>
'reverse' Diabetes With Intermittent Fasting? What You Need To Know - Healthnewsreview.org
Michael Joyce is a writer-producer with HealthNewsReview.org and tweets as @mlmjoyce A health care message can get polluted, diluted, and distorted by many people as it moves from researchers, through journals and press releases, and ultimately into the news coverage. Heres an example of what happens when it starts at the source with grandiose language used by the study authors, is perpetuated in newswire/releases and the publishing journal, and is ultimately parroted and amplified by news organizations. A case report of 3 men (ages 40, 52, 67) who received dietary education and underwent intermittent fasting over 10 months; all three were able to go off their insulin, lose weight, and experience very mild reductions in their hemoglobin A1C (a rough average of blood sugar levels over the previous 2-3 months). In this study intermittent fasting was roughly three 24-hour periods each week in which the subjects were limited to water, coffee, tea, or bone broth. The published conclusion: Medically supervised, therapeutic fasting regimens can help reverse type 2 diabetes (and minimize the use of prescriptions and possibly surgical interventions as well). The reversal language is unjustified and the evidence here is extremely anecdotal, said Kevin Klatt, PhD, a researcher in dietetics and molecular nutrition at Cornell University. What qualifies as a reversal with diabetes is unclear. But what is clear is that following a single test like hemoglobin A1C, or simply going off insulin, does not qualify as reversal. Much more robust data is needed and no sort of clinical recommendations can be made from the results of just three subjects. The lead author (or authors) is/are quoted as saying: This present case series showed that 24-hour fasting regimens can significantly reverse Continue reading >>

Before embarking on their fasting regime, they all attended a 6-hour long nutritional training seminar, which included information on how diabetes develops and its impact on the body; insulin resistance; healthy eating; and how to manage diabetes through diet, including therapeutic fasting. They stuck to this pattern for around 10 months after which fasting blood glucose, average blood glucose (HbA Continue reading >>
Intermittent Fasting Can Reverse Type 2 Diabetes In Some Cases
Intermittent Fasting Can Reverse Type 2 Diabetes in Some Cases Therapeutic intermittent fasting may help eliminate the need for insulin and other glucose-lowering medications in patients with type 2 diabetes, a new case series suggests. Findings from three cases were published online October 9 in BMJ Case Reports by Suleiman Furmli, MD, of the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and colleagues. The three patients had all been referred to an intensive dietary management clinic and were taking at least 70 units/day of insulin. After several months of intermittent fasting either on alternate days or three times weekly all three were able to discontinue insulin while improving their glycemic control. They also lost substantialamounts of body weight and had reduced waist circumferences. "Medically supervised, therapeutic fasting regimens can help reverse type 2 diabetes and minimize the use of pharmacological and possibly surgical interventions in patients with type 2 diabetes," Furmli and colleagues write. The patients were given 6 hours of training on diabetes and nutrition and specific instructions for fasting. They ate only dinner and consumed unlimited very low-calorie fluids on fasting days, and ate both lunch and dinner on nonfasting days. Low-carbohydrate meals were recommended when eating meals. They followed up with the treating physician every 2 weeks. Patient 1 was a 40-year-old man with type 2 diabetes for 20 years who also had hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. At baseline he was taking metformin, canagliflozin, and long- and short-acting insulin. After fasting three times a week for 7 months, he was able to discontinue all the drugs except for canagliflozin, his HbA1c dropped from 12% to 7.5%, his weight was reduce Continue reading >>

Why supporting brain cancer research is a cause close to our hearts at hockingstuart
Connor's Run is Australia's largest fundraising event for paediatric brain cancer and has been raising millions of dollars since its first run in 2013. It's a cause that's close to our heart here at hockingstuart, and as such we're extremely proud to be a sponsor of this year's event, held on 16th September 2018 along Melbourne's foreshore.
"We first came across the charity last year when our Albert Park office decided to get involved in the race," says Simon Jovanovic, hockingstuart's CEO. "The founder of the Robert Connor Dawes Foundation, Connor's mum Liz Dawes, came down to the Albert Park office and talked to the team about Connor's fight against brain cancer.
"We were so touched by her story that the entire hockingstuart network decided to get behind the cause and support Australian families who are affected by the disease."
This year, Liz's story inspired 205 hockingstuart team members to put on their runners and participate in Connor's Run 2018, raising over $94,000 for the worthy cause thanks to the generosity of our customers, staff, family and friends. This figure is almost double our original goal of $50,000 and more than three times the amount raised in 2017.
One of this year's Connor's Run participants was hockingstuart Albert Park's Loic Mamet, who recalls Liz's first visit to the office and the impact her words had on the team: "It really touched our hearts hearing that it all started as a legacy for her son Connor," he said.
"At hockingstuart we're involved with our local communities all day, every day – the community is what keeps us alive, so it's great to be able to help the Robert Connor Dawes foundation and give back in some way."
We were honoured to speak with Liz after this year's fun run, who was extremely pleased with the efforts of all participants and the lengths they went to making a difference.
"From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank everyone at hockingstuart for their incredible effort and enthusiasm on the day," Liz said. "Paediatric brain cancer is the number one cancer killer for young Australians and with your support, we can change those odds."
About Connor's Run
In total, Connor's Run raised over $1 million, an incredible result which will go directly towards Australia's first DNA Tissue Testing Centre at Monash's Children's Cancer Centre.
In November 2011, Robert Connor Dawes was diagnosed with brain cancer. He was only 17 years old at the time and in the midst of training for the upcoming rowing season in Melbourne. Major surgery resulted in a loss of movement to his right side, impaired vision and severe short-term memory loss. He completed intense radiation and chemotherapy, but the disease was malicious and after 16 months of fighting, Connor lost his battle with ependymoma.
This heartbreak is what motivated his mum, Liz Dawes, to create Connor's Run and The Robert Connor Dawes Foundation, which helps support fundraising efforts that beat the disease.
"We were determined to do everything in our power to ensure no family ever had to experience the heartache we did," says Liz.
"But this event is about more than just raising money, it's about celebrating Connor's life and the courage he mustered in the face of adversity. There was live music and entertainment along the course and a fantastic after party along the Yarra – it was truly a great atmosphere. I know Connor would have loved it."
Connor's Run has now completed its sixth event. Participants run 18.8km from Sandringham to the boatsheds on the Yarra, and have raised more than $3.2 million since the fun run's inception.
The hockingstuart team are already looking to see how they can top this year's extraordinary fundraising effort, with the next event taking place on Sunday 15th September 2019.

This Is How You Can Attend President Trump's First White House Easter Egg Roll for Free
People can now enter their name in a lottery to attend the annual tradition.
If you ever wanted to be part of the White House Easter Egg Roll, you have until Saturday to throw your name into the hat.
The lottery for the famed annual tradition is available Wednesday through Saturday, March 18. All attendees are determined by lottery because of the event's popularity and the winners will be announced on March 31.
The actual egg roll will take place on April 17, the day after Easter Sunday.
Created for young children, the annual Easter tradition at the White House date back to 1878 and has become the largest event held at the presidential residence. Before 1878, the event had always been held at Capitol Hill, but in 1876, after one particularly noisy year of egg hunting, Congress passed a law forbidding their work area from being used as a "children's playground."

Memorial set for Cos Cob teen
GREENWICH — Students, educators and parents held a moment of silence at the beginning of the Greenwich High School graduation ceremony Tuesday night for Nicolas Del Priore, killed by a train over the weekend.
"This night of celebration is also marked by the pain of losing one of our students, Nicolas Del Priore," said Chris Winters, Headmaster of Greenwich High School. "Our thoughts are with Nicolas's family and many friends."
A memorial service is planned for the 17-year-old high school junior who died on the train tracks in Cos Cob this weekend.
The service for Del Priore is set for 11 a.m. Saturday at the Second Congregational Church on East Putnam Avenue in Greenwich, according to an email sent out to the high school community from Greenwich High School Headmaster Chris Winters. Law enforcement authorities have yet to release information on the death or speculate on its details.
Del Priore was active in drama and volunteer work at Greenwich High School. He was a co-president of the Roots and Shoots program at the high school, which collects food for people in need. Attendees to the memorial service are being asked to donate canned goods.
Aarron Donovan, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, said MTA police had not released preliminary findings about the fatality at the train station; the case remains under investigation. Del Priore was hit by a train shortly after midnight on Sunday.
Messages left at the family residence this week were not returned.
Classmates at the high school recalled Del Priore as a funny, creative and caring person.
The teen was struck by a northbound train that departed Grand Central Terminal at 10:45 p.m. Sunday, according to MTA Police.
Greenwich police, firefighters and EMS responded to the incident at 12:05 a.m., according to Lt. David Nemecek, a spokesman for the Greenwich Police Department.

We have always loved the way Princess Diana wore her jewels, especially the statement choker necklaces. They were the epitome of her elegant styling. And how can we forget Queen Mary of Teck's multi-layered pearl chokers. The necklace style was very popular in 80s and 90s.
Being sit around the neck as a collar, it is called 'choker' and is perfect to go with virtually any outfit and neckline imaginable. And it was the spring of 2012 when we saw the similar choker style back in trend.
Designers like Ralph Lauren, Givenchy, Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier showcased chokers on their fall 2012 runways. It was the gold and silver statement pieces that were the focal point of the season's styling. Also, many of our favorite A-list celebrities ditched their dainty, layered personal jewels for rather bold looks.
As the style will be elaborated in 2013 with the red carpet trails on the way, if you want to spend in one piece of jewelry, it will certainly be choker necklaces.
For those New Year parties, prom nights and any glittery evening, it will be the conversation starter that will take your outfit to the next level. Whether opting for a plain gold piece or an elaborated shimmering one, it will definitely finish off just about every look. Wear it over a simple turtle neck, with a cocktail dress, under an oxford shirt or with a plunging deep V dress – a choker will definitely be a complement to it.
If that's not enough, check out some real life starry examples to don the piece and tell us, how you'd like to wear this classic trend?

It is Monday night and we are enjoying this Spanish Tempranillo very much. This will be a fairly quick post because I have some dinner preparations to monitor!
Yesterday (Sunday) I made oven-baked ribs; I started the process at 2:00 in the afternoon and took them out of the oven at 8:00 p.m. They were delicious and I will share my recipe with anyone who is interested. It's definitely a weekend kind of meal if you work during the week.
Tonight I am making a pasta dish with fresh vegetables. I already have yellow and red peppers, leeks and fresh spinach, chopped, washed and ready. . .
The wine is very good with hints of licorice and blackberries. It is light-to-medium bodied and dry. Lovely!

Tritiyo Matra the third dimension is a program for open discussion on current affairs
where you can ask, vote, share, comments, download and more.
Everyday at 1:00 A.M. and 9:45 A.M. BST on
Bangladesh Nationalist Party on Friday alleged prime minister Sheikh Hasina echoed the voices of dictators like Ayub, Yahya, Hitler, and Mussolini by threatening protesters at public universities, who brought allegations of corruption against vice-chancellors, with legal actions.
BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said this at a press conference at the party's central office at Naya Paltan in Dhaka after the prime minister on Thursday warned that the people, who were creating anarchy on university campuses bringing corruption allegations against vice-chancellors, would have to face legal action if they failed to prove those.
The prime minister's remarks came when unrests were on over corruption allegations against the vice-chancellors of Jahangirnagar University and Pabna University of Science and Technology.
Rizvi said the prime minister clearly taken stance for corruption through her remarks to protect Jahangirnagar University vice-chancellor C Farzana Islam without taking any action against her.
'Bangladesh Chhatra League activists themselves brought allegations of corruption against Farzana Islam. Expelled Chhatra League general secretary and activists also brought allegation of illegal money transaction against the vice-chancellor and her family. It has been published on media how the vice-chancellor distributed Tk 1.60 crore amongst them,' Rizvi said.
'Actually, she was threatening so that none could speak against corruption of her government,' he said.
The BNP leader wanted to know the roles and responsibilities of law enforcement agencies and the administration if the protesters had to launch movement with proofs and evidence in their hands.

I frequently hear that my photoos on Etsy are great.
People often think that I must have some expensive reflex camera with lots of megapixels and other fancy gadgets.
But the truth is, I don't have that.
My camera is a simple digital camera with 10.2 megapixels and I bought it online for $70,= .
It's a Samsung ES15 and I love this camera :)
Taking pictures at daylight works best for me and the cam. I'm only searching for a lightbox/-tent, I just hate it when I want to take new photoos and it's dark outside.

Louis Jordan, part 3: 1946 this week on The Juke In The Back!
The Juke In The Back" focuses on the "soul that came before rock n' roll," the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
The "Juke In The Back" presents Part 3 of a mammoth, multi-part series, featuring the most important musical figure of the 1940s, Louis Jordan. He was the most successful African-American artist of the decade, selling millions of records to both Black and White audiences. Jordan charted 57 singles between 1942 and 1951, scoring 18 #1 R&B hits and 56 top 10s. Several of his records even crossed over into the Pop Top 10, which was an almost unheard of feat at the time.
Part 3 of our series focuses on the entire year of 1946. Jordan scored 5 #1 records that year and spent 35 out of 52 weeks at the top of the Race Record Chart (the name of the R&B chart at that time). One of those #1s was a duet with the great Ella Fitzgerald. We'll also hear Jordan duetting with another musical titan, Bing Crosby. Decca Records put their 2 biggest stars together, but unfortunately that tune only hit #14 on the Pop Chart. "Choo Choo Ch'Boogie" topped the chart for 18 weeks and then it was knocked out of the top spot by another Louis Jordan record, "Ain't That Just Like A Woman." He was at the top of his game in 1946, selling more records than any other African-American artist. We'll also dig on a V-Disc Jordan cut for those serving overseas in the Armed Forces as well as some choice B sides. The "Juke" is jumpin' with Jordan this week on part 3 of "Juke In The Back"'s tribute to the "King Of The Jukeboxes, Louis Jordan.
Join Matt the Cat for Juke in the Back, tomorrow morning at 04:00 AM Eastern, with an encore presentation, Sunday afternoon at 03:00 PM Eastern, on Mushroom FM, the home of the fun guys, making four decades of magic mushroom memories!

Sometimes we humans are tricked by our human nature into seeing ungodly choices as if they were hidden eggs in a childhood Easter egg hunt.
We're not quite sure where the godless eggs of "Get 'em good" revenge tactics or unjust riches or illicit sex are hiding, but we're sure racing sometimes to find them before somebody else does.
It's really sad when you think about how often this happens, even among Christians.
This should not be, of course.
For any of us.
And yet, we've all fallen and come short of the glory of God.
The specific failure varies from person to person, but the fact of sin is universal.
And it has been since the Garden of Eden, other than for our sinless Savior Jesus Christ.
God loves people and He wants them to follow a better, spiritually brighter path.
That's why He calls certain people into Christian leadership — to help others step onto and stay on that path.
To succeed in that mission of avoiding the "godless egg" hunts, the leaders are to set the example of what God desires.
And that's why the Apostle Paul wrote the following words to his ministry apprentice Timothy.
"But you, Timothy, are a man of God; so run from all these evil things. Pursue righteousness and a godly life, along with faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness. Fight the good fight for the true faith. Hold tightly to the eternal life to which God has called you." (I Timothy 6:11-12)
The evil things to which Paul was referring included the chasing of riches, an unhealthy desire to debate over the definition of words and other foolish and harmful desires that "plunge" people into ruin and destruction.
Paul is not saying we have no need of income. He's not saying we should ignore false teaching in the church. And he's not saying it's wrong to enjoy the privileges of married romance.
What he IS saying, instead, is to place the things of God listed above at the top of our priority list.
This is what people of God do as they are running away from those things that are such dangerous threats.
Yes, they are dangerous and can destroy us.
I would never walk up to a grizzly bear and ask to dance. If I saw one coming toward me, I'd run as fast as I could.
Listen, a grizzly is a teddy bear compared to Satan.
Let's make sure we run from him and his schemes.
As always, I love you

The Eastleigh Conservative candidate for the 2015 general election, Mims Davies, has kicked off her campaign with a swipe at Eastleigh's Liberal Democrat administration, describing MP Mike Thornton as "no great shakes" and Council Leader Keith House as "incredibly complacent" accusing them of "taking voters for granted."
In an interview Davies told Eastleigh News she thought that under the Lib Dems Eastleigh Borough Council had overextended itself in building a property portfolio and that the council could soon be forced to start selling assets, including council owned land to developers, in order to service its debts.
The general election may still be nine months away but Eastleigh Conservatives have been hitting the campaign trail in Hedge End – a key area they must win to regain the seat and a task that Conor Burns and Maria Hutchings both failed in twice.
Hutchings's defeat in the 2013 by-election was largely due to the huge swing to Ukip.
Although Hutchings had started out as the bookies favorite the Conservatives ended up in third place for the first time, even though the entire Conservative front bench had descended on the town during the campaign.
Davies will have her work cut out convincing Conservative defectors to return to the fold but she believes she can do it.
"The by-election was a very toxic time and a different time in politics.
"When people are looking to form a five year government next May they will be looking for something different."
She added that the economy wasn't doing so well in 2013 and believes that the Conservative record on the economy will sway voters.
If not for the Conservatives said Davies, the UK "would have become another Greece." The Conservatives were "the people who have kept the economy going."
David Cameron, she said, had delivered on the Scottish referendum and could be trusted to deliver the promised EU referendum in 2017.
She said disenchanted Conservative supporters who may have switched to Ukip last time over concerns about Europe or immigration would be disappointed if they voted Ukip in the general election as it would result in a Labour government.
She warned Conservatives that if they voted Ukip "you won't get the say on Europe that you wanted."
Mims (short for Miriam) Davies is a mum of two from Sussex. A former BBC journalist she is currently a Mid Sussex District councilor and describes her occupation on her register of interests as "housewife".
Husband Mark is the financial director for a commercial property management company and has also been out campaigning on Hedge End doorsteps.
Davies said the family would move to Eastleigh if she won the seat and would immediately resign her council seat. She criticised Mike Thornton for not giving up his seat on the Borough and on Bishopstoke Parish council.
"I don't think Mike Thornton realises he is a member of this government setting policy."
(Thornton has indicated he will be standing down from his council seat next year)
She admitted she didn't have strong local links but believed her experience as a councilor would stand her in good stead because she said, the people she represents in Sussex face the same kind of problems as people in Eastleigh -"There is no brick wall into Sussex."
In particular Davies said her experience in planning matters would be of practical use – she described EBC's current local plan as "opaque" and said people she had spoken to on the doorstep "did not understand it."
Immigration had been a major issue in the by-election but Davies said the government had cut immigration by a third and that people wanted to migrate here because the UK is a prosperous country while British citizens also enjoyed the opportunity to work abroad.
She said immigration was a personal issue:
"If you are struggling got find work then immigration is an issue but if you are trying to grow your business but can't find the right people to come and work for you, then perhaps immigration isn't such an issue."
One local issue Davies agrees on with her Ukip counterpart is the cost of parking in Eastleigh town centre, which Davies says, is more expensive than Southampton West Quay – she also says it's unclear where Eastleigh's parking revenue is going.
Of course the level of parking charges or planning decisions are not decided by MPs but Davies has promised to bring "a fresh pair of eyes" to the borough as a "community politician who has made a difference" and said her main priority would be to hold the local Lib Dem administration to account.
Indications are that the 2015 will be a just as much of a tight, three-way fight as it was in 2013 with Ukip, the Lib Dems and Conservatives all vying to squeeze their opponents core vote.
