KTLA is Busy

January 4, 2008 on 5:45 pm | In Uncategorized | 1 Comment

KTLA is one of the only television stations that have an actual news station in Hollywood. Britney Spears and her excruciatingly slow motion train wreck of a personal life divert a lot of resources from other items.

Years ago when Rosie O’Donnell talked to a young Britney Spears on her talk show, she told her to stay in Louisiana. The way to prevent most Hollywood tragedies is to avoid Hollywood. The list of celebrities who make a point of living elsewhere is kind of short. It seems that you have to be confident that you have arrived before you can leave. It’s not too late even now for Britney to just step off the ride.

Tyson Foods’ Charitable Donation of Quality Protein

December 21, 2007 on 3:40 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

$3 million and 49.1 million pounds of chicken, beef and pork products is nothing to sneeze at. That is how much cash and product has gone from Tyson Foods to more than 600 hunger-relief agencies nationwide since 2000. Donations of good quality high protein foods to food banks are a great idea. I have to confess that when I dropped a few items in the box at the supermarket in the past, they were very often high carb boxed items. That kind of personal donation has to be non-perishable, so the options are kind of limited. If anybody has a good idea for a non-perishable low carb item that would help food banks, please leave a comment. I know tuna and peanut butter would be appreciated.

Using Restraint at Holiday Feasts

December 21, 2007 on 3:07 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

I just participated in a little bit of excessive eating as part of our last day at work before the holiday. Right now, I am wishing that I hadn’t. I am not actually trying to lose weight at the moment, so it’s not the calories that are bothering me so much as the shear volume. Part of my excess was due to peer pressure and part of it was just because there was so much good food in front of me. I think I need to start excusing myself from an item or two during these social events. I need to make a commitment to myself that I am going to do this. I will feel much better afterwards. Why did she have to make tiramisu ?

When You Have an Accident, You May Need a Lawyer

December 20, 2007 on 6:24 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

Lawyers tend to specialize. It takes a unique set of skills for each specialty. Your Nebraska truck accident lawyer might not have the right approach to help the OJ Simpsons of the World stay out of jail. Larry R. Demerath does have 35 years of experience in getting money out of the insurance companies and accountable parties to help injured Nebraskans through their recoveries.

Farm accidents happen to be one of his specialties. I grew up on a farm and I know about the dangers inherent in that life and also how difficult in can be to get compensation from an accountable party because workplace standards are different for farms than for other woprkplaces.

Diets up to Here

January is almost here. New Years tends to see a lot of people resolving to lose weight. Here is a long list of diets including the good, the bad and the ugly, with one notable exception. These are diets with Wikipedia entries. The short lived Kimkins entry was deleted after some tug of war editing that took place around the time that some key information was coming to light. I would not personally consider attempting to create a new page because to be honest there are members of the low carb community who would begin another cycle of less than professional editing until it got deleted again.

The Kimkins Private Investigator’s Notes

October 17, 2007 on 12:07 pm | In Uncategorized | No Comments

How does Heidi Diaz (Kimmer) really spend her days? The PI who got the infamous surveillance pictures and video has written about his experiences on the case and it makes for fascinating reading. Heidi Diaz is a recluse who spends most of her time in her house, leaving her house just to go shopping and pick up the mail. Mr. Charlton gives us a peek into her habits:

During the several days spent on surveillance, I observed Ms. Diaz out of the apartment twice. She was usually seated at a window on her computer. I remember thinking “what a strange woman”, just sitting at the computer all day long creating diet schemes to take money from people who have placed their hopes in her hands to help them lose weight.

I passed by her vehicle one day and noticed a tray of sugar cookies with sprinkles just recently opened and sitting on the passenger seat of her mini van. This from a woman telling other people to eat 500 to 800 calories a day all the while she is taking in much much more than that.
