Euthanasia, Lost cats, Epic Sandstorn news in Good ol Aus, UK Treasure Find, and Anti-Diet
I think this WAS a step backward in the ruling. In the usa it’s the other unhealthy extreme, you touch someone the wrong way and you’re jailed for 50 years. in australia, police are running around naked and euthanasia, if you want to off yourself, that’s apparently legally “okay” (which it really isn’t). I think britain and europe strikes a fine healthy balance between these two unhealthy extremes, but if I had to choose one of the unpleasant ones, I’d choose the australian over-liberality instead of the usa dictatorship ubiquitous illegality. But, as usual, UK ftw.
Gotta love aus news though (it may not be as topnotch as uk, but it’s much more worthy than an american news). A cat somehow ends up in Tasmania and safely arrives back at home in Queensland another cat was shot 13 times and survived. What’s with bizarre cats surviving the worst?
Also, this epic sandstorm (worst in 70 years apparently so since 1939 roughly) hits Sydney. Interesting. Also the pizza ransom row was ludicrous, absurd, but amusing. Obviously the pizza delivery dude on low wage couldn’t handle not getting paid probably.
In UK, this epic treasure find illuminates the silent and shadowed dark ages, a token reminder that that awesome land holds immense and incredible history in the ancient land (Londinium, for example) . Couple that booming discovery (revealing something of the here feudal times reigned and so much of the modern europe’s skyscrapers or fields are hovering on grounds that previously held treasures, cDark Ages, back in the days of yore, loot & pluder, damsels and knights) with the discovery of water on Mars? This is epic, breakthrough and exciting times for very cool areas. Fascinating times. The martian agua discovery is absolutely fascinating. There’s so much exciting news currently from epic sandstorms to martian discoveries, to illuminating the dark ages? This is epic!
For something completely different.
Response to this:
Excellent article. I stumbled upon this earlier before I had known of Tim ferriss, but gave it a second and more scrutinized read the second go. I like the simplicity of the rules. Seems like this holds together (especially with the surprising tat-loss-inducing 1day/week junk food binge) with the repetitive no-white carb food groups and then repeating meals.
Currently I’ve been doing 2 meals a day at 8am and at 1pm. I have very different sleep schedule though and usually rise at roughly 1am and sleep by 6pm ish. This may fluctuate, but I hope it does not. I usually have a piece of fruit at 6am. The pork and beef look vile so those are out.
Substituting a lot of vegetarian-based protien (the beans, fallafel, etc) is good.
I’ve never been a diet person and loathe diets because most always induce yo-yoing. I’ve always had robotic eating patterns so that’s great repetitive nutrition is built into this diet.
Most diets people can’t stand to get off and yo-yo. Additionally, diet based on “1 pound of fat down!” 2 pounds of fat down! are fail. A diet cannot be weight-based or it will always, inevitably collapse. Has to be a nutrition restructuring relationship with your body (whatever that means, and I think that means. You have to like the new nutrition timing, amounts, and substance).
I like how you have set 3-4 categories and then 4-5 options from each of those for roughly 20 different foods you can have with each meal to pick and choose variety. That makes for easier grocery shopping too.
It’s easy to get creative and create good high-protien stirfries with a lot of spices and the like. anyways, cheers. I doubt I’ll try this completely because I don’t usually ever copy other people’s methods (it’s impractical because every lifestyle is so vastly different) but I have integrated a few ideas (like
the 20 food group selection array,
consistent eating times,
1 glass of wine/day is nice,
the caloric distribution in greens versus for example white rice (which I eat A LOT of) was interesting. About a 20:1 Rice:green caloric ratio. THAT’s FASCINATING and useful.
the junkfood day is also fairly practical.
In a lot of my massively alterred eating habit bouts (some of which have included fasts), you get this wave of junkfood eating when the interest dissipates or changes so it’s good that that’s built in.
Flexibility with adaptability some cool ideas. cheers.
