Which subject-verb agreement is correct in the sentences?
Angelina, Tara, and Lori likes to go to the cinema.
Tea, coffee, or juice is served with breakfast.
In the play, Romeo and Juliet, there is multiple acts.
2 Answers | Add Yours
[Please remember eNotes does not do student assignments, exams or essays.]
In the first answer choice, the subject-verb agreement would be:
Angelina, Tara, and Lori like to go to the cinema.
This is because there are three girls. Since the subject is plural, the verb has to be plural as well. The plural verb "like" is needed here, rather than the singular verb "likes" in the example.
Tea, coffee, or juice is served with breakfast.
In this second case, only one drink is served. Therefore a singular verb is used. In this case "is" would be the singular verb.
For the last one, you also need a different verb.
In the play, Romeo and Juliet, there are multiple acts.
This one is a little tricky, because the subject of the adjectival there-clause is delayed. "There" is a "dummy" subject and not the real subject. "In the play" is an introductory adverbial clause with "in" functioning as an adverb of location. If you invert the main clause order to "multiple acts are," then the subject comes before the verb, and you can see that "acts" is plural and needs the plural verb "are" for agreement and not the singular verb "is" as in the original sentence.
Subject-verb agreement is very important. To help yourself decide, try taking some of the words out of the sentence and reducing it to its simplest point.
(1) Incorrect-two or more singular subjects connected by 'and' usually take a verb in the plural.
(2) Correct-two or more singular subjects connected by or, nor, either-or, neither-nor take a verb in the singular.
(3) Incorrect- in place 'is' use 'are'. Plural verb.

Final Fight: Double Impact
This week we welcome Andrew J Smith, of Proper Games. Andrew was the designer for the recently released Final Fight: Double Impact on XBLA and PSN. One of the best Arcade ports we've yet witnessed. We talk to Andrew about the job of not only bringing the classic Capcom brawler to contemporary audiences, but also of delivering a level of polish and authenticity heretofore unseen.
Tony and I also talk Splinter Cell: Conviction, and since we're three years old this week, there's a bonus at the close; The best bits of Digital Cowboys; Episode One. Many thanks to our co-host Paul Shotton for his vocal stylings on that.
Tony also turned thirty this week, so it's a double-birthday to be proud of.

Matthew Lovell: Alex continues to progress. We haven't made any changes this week to the diet as he's well under way and we need to leave time for the new eating habits to settle before changing them again if we need to. He's enjoying working his way through the different menus supplied by us and is enjoying mixing proteins (ham and eggs, for instance, at breakfast).
We recommended Alex try cycling into work before breakfast in order to increase the energy he burns from fat. This is quite difficult but opens room in the muscles for faster release carbohydrates to be eaten at breakfast, these will then be stored as glycogen (stored sugar in the muscle) as opposed to fat. To this end Alex's breakfast will now include oats, milk, 1/2 banana and some maple syrup with a protein shake on the side. Note that there's only room for extra sugar if you've created it through exercise.Reuse content

Be that as it may, investigate and you'll see the splendid red shading and dim logo of electric auto organization Tesla on the sides. Also, inside the cases are a large number of battery cells – similar ones that are utilized as a part of Tesla's electric autos – made by the organization in its monstrous $5bn Tesla Gigafactory outside of Reno, Nevada.
This spot, situated at the Mira Loma substation of Southern California Edison, has the greatest battery cultivate Tesla has worked for a power organization. Southern California Edison will utilize the battery cultivate, which has been working since December and is one of the greatest on the planet, to store vitality and take care of spikes in demand – like on hot summer evenings when structures begin to wrench up the cooling.
Tesla's venture has a limit of 20 megawatts and is intended to release 80-megawatt hours of power in four-hour time spans. It contains enough batteries to keep running around 1,000 Tesla autos, and the proportionate vitality to supply energy to 15,000 homes for four hours. The organization declined to reveal the venture's cost.
The venture denote a critical indicate in Tesla's system grow past the electric auto business. Creating battery packs is a center skill for the organization, which is planning packs for homes, organizations and utilities. It markets them mostly as an approach to store sun based power for use after dusk, a pitch that functions admirably for states with a blasting sun based vitality market, for example, California.
Battery frameworks worked for power organizations can fill more than one need. An utility can maintain a strategic distance from power outages by energizing them when its common gas control plants, or sun based and wind ranches, create more power than required, and draw from them when the power plants aren't ready to stay aware of interest.
Edison and other California utilities enlisted Tesla and a couple of other battery cultivate manufacturers after a vital common gas repository close Los Angeles, called Aliso Canyon, shut after a colossal release and monstrous natural fiasco in late 2015. The release constrained a great many individuals in adjacent neighborhoods to clear. It likewise left utilities stressed over how they'd meet the pinnacle power requests of coming summers in the event that they couldn't dunk into the common gas stockpiling at whatever point they require fuel to create control. They couldn't generally get normal gas shipment from different providers sufficiently fast to meet a sharp ascent in power utilization.

Thus, the California Public Utilities Commission affirmed 100 megawatts of vitality stockpiling ventures for both Southern California Edison and furthermore San Diego Gas and Electric. The commission additionally requested the ventures to be fabricated rapidly, before the finish of 2016.
Other vitality stockpiling ventures that have been worked since incorporate a 37.5-megawatt extend in San Diego County by AES Energy Storage, which utilized lithium-particle batteries from Samsung. AES has finished the venture, which is experiencing the dispatching stage. AES additionally plans to assemble a 100-megawatt extend for Southern California Edison in Long Beach in 2020.
Indeed, even before the Aliso Canyon calamity, the commission had officially perceived the advantage of utilizing vitality stockpiling to oversee free market activity and anticipated that it would turn into a critical segment in the state's arrangement to supplant fossil fuel vitality with renewables. The commission, which requires the state's three major utilities to include more wind and sunlight based vitality to their provisions after some time, likewise set an announcement vitality stockpiling focus of 1,325 megawatts by 2020.
Encompassed by columns of batteries at a lace cutting service at the venture on Monday, Southern California Edison's CEO Kevin Payne said the Tesla venture is imperative since "it approves that vitality stockpiling can be a piece of the vitality blend now" and is "an awesome indication of how quick innovation is changing the electric power industry".

This most recent harvest of vitality stockpiling ventures utilize another era of lithium-particle batteries. Generally, batteries were excessively costly for vitality stockpiling, yet their costs have dropped drastically as of late, because of their large scale manufacturing by organizations, for example, Panasonic, Tesla and Samsung.
Organizations that purchase lithium-particle batteries have been announcing drops in costs of 70% in the course of recent years. Tesla has said it arrangements to lower its battery costs by 30% by growing generation inside its Gigafactory.
At the occasion on Monday, Tesla's fellow benefactor and boss innovation officer JB Straubel stated: "Capacity has been absent on the network since it was developed."
Tesla is depending on the vitality stockpiling market as an imperative wellspring of income and manufactured its goliath plant on account of that.
The organization trusts its ability in designing and building electric autos separates itself from other battery cultivate engineers. Tesla has been creating battery packs for 10 years and enhanced the innovation that deals with the batteries temperatures, which can be sufficiently high to represent a fire hazard.
Overheating is a notable issue for lithium-particle batteries, which require protecting materials and programming to keep them running cool. A battery cultivate worked beside a twist cultivate in Hawaii by a now-bankrupt organization burst into flames in 2012 and incidentally put a dampener on the vitality stockpiling market.
Tesla has been building another battery cultivate on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, and has extends in Connecticut, North Carolina, New Zealand and the UK.
The organization is searching for chances to construct battery cultivates outside of California, including the East Coast and nations, for example, Germany, Australia and Japan. Tesla prime supporter and CEO Elon Musk has said before that the organization's vitality stockpiling business might one be able to day be greater than its auto business.

Part 3 – Why Fad Diets Don't Work
The deeper I get into my study of nutrition the more I have come to embrace bio-individuality as the best term to sum up my personal beliefs about healthy eating. You may have heard the saying "one man's food is another man's poison." Well, bio-individuality is the concept that best summarizes this because it is essentially saying there is no one perfect way of eating for everyone. Every single human being, including you and I, have unique genetic make-ups, blood types, ancestry, metabolism, and food intolerances.
Part of your job, when walking the healthy living path, is to be your own health guru and figure out what makes your stomach and your body happy and healthy. Some bodies metabolize carbs better, and some proteins. Some people cannot be optimally healthy on an animal based diet or diet that includes dairy. Some people may not thrive on a vegan or raw diet, either because of improper supplementation, eating a diverse group of foods, or because their body is simply not getting the levels of essential nutrients or fat soluble vitamins it needs to function at its best. When this happens individuals find themselves with candida imbalances, tooth decay, fatigue or other signs that something is off-balance in the body.
I am a firm believer that optimal health should always be the end goal, and sole focus. This means that rather than clinging to a diet like a religion that leads to illness and eventually disease, each of us should carefully mine the information we hear about different food choices and diets and filter out by testing on our own body, and discovering what is appropriate for us. So how do we avoid falling into the fad diet trap?
As the ancient Egyptians put it: "Know thyself." You have to know your ancestry, learn what foods your body does and does not like, and decipher what any imbalances that arise are trying to tell you. Most doctors can't do this for you. It takes some personal initiative and perhaps some digging with the help of non-traditional and traditional health practitioners along with a nice dose of intuition. But when you put in the work it's well worth it. My idea of a healthy and balanced world is one is which bio-individuality is embraced fully, where all of us avoid the factory and embrace the field, and where dietary labels don't need to exist because everyone eats whole fresh good karma foods that support their unique and incredible body. -XoXo Raw Girl

Yoga: Fullest Expression
As you ground and grow in your much less wobblier vriksasana, you hear the instructor utter the words you least look forward to.
"Fullest expression!"
Feeling confused and alone, you've now lost your drishti. Your eyes wander about the class and eventually toward home girl two mats over, who has somehow managed to get her arms into some kind of contortionist style prayer fold.
With your teacher's presence near, you make a conscious effort to reset your focus. You frantically throw your arms in the air and think to yourself, this will work for sure.
"Lovely yogis," your teacher replies.
You feel charged as your hands make their way back to anjanayasana. You've made it through another class without flaking out in your expression.
When an instructor calls "fullest expression," what is being asked of the student? Is the teacher looking for the craziest arms in tree pose? Or perhaps the straightest and highest kicked leg in one-legged wheel? It is very easy to get caught up in the aesthetic of a yoga practice when those words are said in class.
I believe that pouring self: heart, mind, and body, entirely into practice is the way to access one's fullest expression. At times, coming into one's fullest expression could mean staying in the in the most basic form of the posture, tapping into the sounds of the heart and the deep rhythm of inhales and exhales.
There is no need to do anything overly taxing, be gentle and allow yourself to flow freely so that you may connect with your inner guide. This is a part of the practice cannot be orchestrated and should be full of your authenticity.
Trust in your breath and be.

Make Your Health Your Best Accessory – Part 2
When you are on the healthy living path, it can sometimes seem like everything is against you. At the beginning you may experience resistance from friends and family, feel lost in your social circle, and find it hard to find sustenance when you are traveling. It's important to stay committed, despite the naysayers, despite the fast food on every corner, and despite the extra inconvenience of finding the freshest whole foods. Why? Because your well-being is worth it. You deserve to be energized enough to follow your purpose, look your best, and live disease-free.
As more of us commit fully, the more the world will have to adapt. When enough people get sick and tired of being sick and tired, through with obesity, or just plain over not having access to the best quality foods, the more you will see improvements in the world as a whole. Why shouldn't healthy nutritious foods be inexpensive? Why shouldn't salad joints replace fast food chains on every corner? Why shouldn't there be veg options at most if not all restaurants?
This week again, I challenge you to be the change you want to see. Without dogma, without making your choices a religion and preaching to anyone, just fully commit to your health and you'll see how quickly others will be running behind you trying to get your secrets. -XoXo Raw Girl
Make Your Health Your Best Accessory – Part 1
Welcome to the all new Raw Girl site! Huge thank you and much love to all of you who supported the campaign to upgrade the site, will be contacting you soon about perks. I am ecstatic about this new phase and all of the wonderful contributors on board to add some additional flavor to the content. To celebrate I've taken my juice photo shoots to the next level and partnered with Puree Juice Bar. They are based in Bethesda and also just opened up a new location in DC inside of Mint Health Club at 1724 California Street NW. If you are local to the area, go support them and try their delicious juices or one of their amazing cleanse packages and tell them Raw Girl sent you!
The theme of the shoot is "Make Your Health Your Best Accessory." So often these days we rely on "stuff" to make us look and feel good. Whether it's the latest fashion trend or smart phone gadget we are programmed to find the next best thing we must have. This can become a vicious cycle of insatiable consumption unless we learn to stand in a centered and grounded space within ourselves knowing that who we truly are is powerful, whole, spirits, who have everything within us that we truly need to thrive.
I used to be a fashion designer and while I was studying I came to the conclusion that for me, fashion was more than dress. It encompasses your world view, self concept, and goes beyond clothing. Health is an accessory that many people do not have the luxury of flaunting these days. The media has taught us to make things like alcohol and cigarettes our accessories, to up our cool factor. Well, it's a new day, and the cool kids are wearing their vegan glow and toting their juices on the way to yoga proudly. I hope that this site will inspire you to join the club, and start focusing on creating the healthiest, most gorgeous version of you, starting from the inside out: mind, body, and soul. If true health is wealth, I want to be a billionaire. Who's with me? -XoXo Raw Girl
Meditation: Practicing Hope
Hope is what fuels us, it can serve as our life support when we are at our lowest low and keep us charged and focused when we want to achieve our goals. Hope is the root of our passion and the end of our pain. Hope is as necessary as the air we breathe. It is reflective of our drive and desire to live. With hope, our life has purpose.
Facts About Hope
*Hopeful people have stronger immune systems than those who lack hope.
*Hopeful people do well in a variety of social environments.
*Hopeful people are able to achieve their goals more easily. According to universal law your thoughts are your truth. If your thoughts are life is wonderful, your life is well…WONDERFUL!
*Hopeful people are contagious. When you are surrounded by hope you have no other choice but to allow it to rub off on you.
Things to Ask Yourself:
What is the root of my hope? Is it for temporary gratification?
How can I be hopeful and achieve my goals while remaining detached?
Do I have consistent attitude of hope in my life, or is my hope based on a certain outcome?
How to Be Hopeful
- Quiet the chatter in your mind through meditation – While it is good to be with your thoughts, they can sometimes be distracting. Do not allow negative thinking to take over. If you have a negative thought acknowledge it, honor it, release it.
- Know that expectation is a four letter word – Ok, ok, it's more like 11 letters, but treat it like it's a curse word as it relates to hope. When expectations are the seed of hope we set ourselves up for potential disappointment. Be happy regardless.
- Practice Positivity – Think of all of the amazing things that are happening in your life right now and drown yourself in all of the greatness that you encapsulate!!
~Namaste, Sihnuu
Inspiration to Go RAW!
A lot of people on the raw path have mentioned to me the pressure they feel to be 100% raw. My philosophy after being 100% for a long while and then shifting to around 90% or more on a given day depending on how I feel and where I am is that YOU should do YOU. Follow your bliss. Healthy living shouldn't ever be strained or stressful. If you find yourself focused on trying to maintain dietary restrictions and it's causing you drama, by all means necessary allow yourself more freedom. A lot of people can attest to the fact that there is something wonderful and even somewhat magical about being in the 100% raw zone, but anyone can get massive benefits just by incorporating more raw foods into their diet. The only way you can know it for sure, is to go for it! Check out below an inspirational post from my buddy Aiya, creator of Black Vegan Love who is currently on a 100% raw fast. -XoXo Raw Girl
When I first learned about a raw food diet in 2007 I was reluctant to try it. Being vegan with so many dietary exclusions (due to many many food allergies) was already difficult at the time, but to limit my diet even more?? I didn't think I could do it. But nonetheless, my BFF Olayinka and I aimed to try it for at least a month. We had such an amazing healing experience, we ended up doing 100% rawfor 8 months. I even stayed raw during a trip to Paris (that ish was definitely a test of my will, with all their amazing culinary preparations lol).
I gotta be real with you though…
The first few weeks were a nightmare for me. I went through a detox to end all detoxes. I was tired all the time and had to virtually camp out beside the toilet. This lasted 3 full weeks. But after that first month passed something started to happen. I actually started to feel good. Not just kinda good, really really good! Like the best I'd ever felt in my life!
I felt blissful and light, my nose finally stopped running (was a problem since I was a child), I stopped needing to take asthma medicine. The occasional headaches I had disappeared. Menstrual cycles no longer were a problem. My overall energy increased. My stomach aches went away. Skin cleared up. My indoor and outdoor allergies became a thing of the past. And I became regular like nobody's business (lmao, sorry had to go there lol).
Here's a list of the foods that I couldn't eat (since childhood) before going raw. All of which I could eat (and still can eat) afterwards.
Walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts, cashews, macadamia nuts, sunflower seeds, kidney beans, split peas, lentils, chickpeas, pineapple, and a gagillion more!
To me it was nothing short of a miracle. I started tripping out over the prospect. Food can do this!?! Why didn't anyone tell me this before!?! Who else knows about this? Lol.
This is why I have maintained an 80% raw diet since then, while always aiming for 100%.
But don't take my word for it. Nothing to it but to do it!!

Raw Food 4 Thought: Embracing the NOW
"Have you ever thought about what you are doing, in each moment, and asked yourself what is the value of it? If you think a bit further perhaps there truly isn't a value to anything, just the vibrations that extend from it. So, in essence there is no waste of time, no waste, no time, just vibrations flowing at the speed of thought and intentions. Which means where you are right now is — right! Now!" ~ Wanakhavi Wakhisi
It's incredibly easy when going through experiences that are difficult and challenging to rail against the Divine. Why me? We lament. Why is this happening to me, and why am I meant to go through this experience? It is only after the storm when the rain and thunder cease, and the sun begins to peak brilliantly through the clouds, that we realize that the storm was a necessary part of our experience. It was a moment in time that had to happen, and was right on time to take us to the next, or even perhaps to allow us the priviledge of truly treasuring the sunny days once they've arrived.
I just recently went through an experience that to me in that moment seemed like a "storm." Now in hindsight, I can see that all the emotions I was caught up in and the negative feelings were a part of my preparation. The experience of being in a situation where my talents and energy were devalued came to help me to shed old habits that were hindering my progress, to give me confidence in my own abilties, and to spur me to action on my own projects.
Are you in a place you don't want to be? Are you moving through something difficult and can't seem to understand why this is happening to you? Take a deep breath, and just embrace that moment, the feelings and sensations. Sit with it and look for the good. Find something to be grateful for right then and NOW. Our job is solely to be there in the NOW, and embrace it. Our job is not to question it, to lament it, or to worry about it. Look for the blessing in that moment, and as they say, "This too shall pass." Perhaps sooner than you think you'll see sunshine through the rain. -XoXo Raw Girl

Learning to Let Go…
I was listening to the radio last night, and the announcer was talking about people in your life that are "frenemies," (enemies masquerading as friends). You know the energy vampires, the backstabbers, or even the cheerleaders who deep down don't really mean the praises they shout in your direction. I think we all know some of those. He was saying that letting go of people or situations in your life that no longer serve you can take you in new more fabulous directions. In addition to that, I believe letting go by learning to surrender is one of the fastest way to move forward and reach your goals.
To emphasize the first point, I will share some tidbits from my new read for this month is Focal Point by Brian Tracy. As I began to delve into the book, one of the first things he emphasizes to become more powerful in all aspects of your life is letting go of habits, activities, and situations that are not giving you the most bang for your buck. Businesses have quadrupled their revenue and productivity by focusing in on their most lucrative clients or services instead of catering to all. I'm also sure that many families and relationships have been saved with readjustment of habits and commitment to real communication. All successful people establish a goal with laser focus and work towards them. The thing that I personally am working on, and this book is assisting, is prioritizing what it is exactly I want and what actions are most important for me to focus on in this moment. Just like you do when your on a "diet." I have been cutting out the excess and noticed that as soon as I have let go of the old activities that sap my time and give little return for my energy investment, I have become doubly productive and had more impact. All that said, letting go sometimes isn't easy. We all love comfort and familiarity and can get trapped into habits, situations, and with people who are hampering our full potential because we don't have the courage to let go.
The other meaning of letting go related to surrender, is learning to go with the flow; finding a balance between trusting that your visions will come to pass without working yourself into a frenzy to accomplish them. In the past, because I am a go-getter who loves to accomplish my goals, I would create task lists and dream up new things to do to get me where I wanted to be. Living like this, left me drained, seemingly "productive"—but worn thin emotionally and physically. After a major adjustment, I learned to hold onto the goal or vision, but to trust that unexpected divine ways to accomplish it would fall right into my path. Julia Cameron, an author who I love, says in many of her books on creativity that we can rely on synchronicity. It's not that you don't do anything at all, or that you neglect to plan, but rather you aren't trying to force moments or make anything happen. Its almost like active listening—but more like active being— you know what you want, so you are ready and alert to it when it arrives. When the right opportunity or idea falls into your path, and it will, you are there with your energy conserved ready to take efficient action.
There is something about surrender in this way that allows us to be a magnet for what we want. If you believe that like attracts like, then consider that when we are worked up and working hard to invent ways to get something or somewhere we are inhabiting an energy of lack. We need this thing bad, and the universe responds by showing us, that yes, indeed we do need it. In this space, there is no room for what we want to show up. But when we give in to the act of surrender and we are no longer desperate or worried, our energy shifts to that of receptivity. It is right there, that I have experienced that the tide begins to turn.
Take a look at your life today. What are your main priorities? Are you focusing on them? What can you let go of or improve so you can use more of your energy to get you closer to where you want to be? Are you trying to control how a certain goal will be accomplished? Perhaps you can make sure your goal is clear, and give yourself permission to let go and hand the dream over to the divine.

Are You Green With Envy?
"Jealousy Works The Opposite Way You Want It To."
At Lululemon Athletica, the yoga/athletic apparel store, this is one of the many quotes on their very cute totes covered with inspirations and advice for healthy living. Yes, jealousy really is a sickness. I have known jealous people, been hated on frequently by jealous people in passing, dated jealous people, and befriended them. Now, I just smile and sashay the other way when I see them coming (and I can sense them a mile away). I learned by associating with these green-faced folks that like any sickness or virus, jealousy looks for way to spread. If it can't convert you into being envious yourself, you may just find your endeavors, dreams, or self-esteem being marred by the jealous people around you. So choose the company you keep wisely.
To those still green with envy: the only damage you are doing by being jealous is to yourself. Rather than deeply indulging in that feeling, why not use it as a helpful sign post for needed change? Either decide to delve deeper into self-acceptance, or take on new skills that will take you one step closer to the career, status, or energy that you are envious of. Try to keep the greens in your smoothie or daily juice, and you may also feel your "green with envy" syndrome dissipate. Or continue to wallow and wail about so and so and what they are and aren't doing, but just know that your only adding fuel to their fabulous fire.

Conquering Fear One Step at a Time
I'm not sure exactly when it started, but I have always had an extreme fear of heights. I couldn't handle walking to the top of the bleachers in the high school gym or auditorium, and even to this day when I am on a roof top I stay several arms lengths away from the edge, just in case. Now that I am regularly in Georgetown, every other day I have to climb a very steep and long escalator, that rises from the Rosslyn metro out to the street level. To the other commuters, it was an escalator, but when I looked up, I saw a mountain. I remember the first climb, I was clutching the railing, half praying and holding my breath as I took cautious steps up the moving escalator, sure that any moment might be my last.
Fast forward to the other day…I was astounded as I effortlessly climbed up the escalator at a brisk pace, and reached the top with not even a glimmer of my past fears. Where did the fear go? Day by day, taking each step, moving a little faster, somehow, I had conquered it. This experience reminded me that all too often we can look at our personal "mountain top" or goals and feel paralyzed with fear. The dream may seem too big, too ambitious, almost impossible. That's why our daily steps towards our goals cannot falter. Each day, moving through our fear, taking a step a little quicker, a little slower, we inch our way towards the top. It's important that as we climb, we give ourselves permission to go at a steady pace, maybe to stand still for a moment and regroup when setbacks arise, and to allow sudden bursts of courage to cause us to take a leap. However we make it to the top really doesn't matter, as long as we don't get off our path.
What tasks can you do today, to work towards your "mountain top"?

Cardio exercise and weight loss
Cardio exercise and your heart's best friend! Lung cancer and has an incredible ability to adapt to exercise. "This is similar to when you are busy with your biceps, said Dr. Michael H. Crawford, chief of cardiology at the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center
.Everything becomes more and chamber dimensions, wall thickness. Bowel mostly muscle, and it can get more when he is faced with the need to work more. "
Cyclist Lance Armstrong gave us a good example of this recently winning the grueling Tour de France seven times in a startling During the row, despite struggling with cancer. Heart Armstrong can pump nine gallons of blood per minute, compared to five for the typical person and his lungs can absorb twice as much oxygen http://infohealth1.blogspot.com/2014/05/dr-darwin-smith-review-deep-breathing.html
His training, experience and commitment to further introduced in the success equation, however, the fact that he developed exclusively heart. proper form of cardio exercise will develop the cardiovascular system in a few weeks .
But unfortunately, it will disappear just as quickly. When studying athletes increased the size of their hearts for twenty three% in the first week of training and the amount of blood pumped by the gut increased by thirty three%. https://infohealth2.wordpress.com/2014/05/30/dr-darwin-smith-review-deep-breathing-benefits/
Unfortunately, this air will evaporate almost as quickly Six treadmills, which has been training at least three months, took three weeks off. By the third week of inactivity their mean left ventricular mass decreased by thirty eight%
, and its average volume of stroke decreased by 23%. So what is the best cardio exercise? Many believe that the longer you push your body above your result may be, but the results prove otherwise. Most of us are not athletes and busy people.
We usually do not have the time or energy to work out of hours at the gym or jogging or cycling around the world. We, as a rule, I would like something that's fast, efficient and pops extra pounds, we usually have been added over the past couple of years.
Dr. Al Sears has developed just such a program. Dr. Sears was in his medical clinic and research center in Florida that endurance exercise really puts the body in danger of failure. Instead, we need short bursts of intensity followed by the rest.
My experience in the aerobic exercise program includes working with hundreds of people in the vital center of life, health and wellbeing club for "over 50 crowd. I believed I knew everything right aerobic programs exercise, but the adoption of new PACE attempt Dr.
Sears'? program, it soon became clear is that there is a lot to learn. This program is extremely effective and takes much less time than the standard programs that coax you to spend hours in the gym, to realize their goals. Miracle PACE Dr. https://storify.com/healthandsolve/dr-darwin-smith-review-they-strengthen-the-immune#publicize
Sears? cardio exercise system is that you can do it with just about any hardware or ... simply by changing walking routine. secret is to vary the routine with "sets" high intensity and rest to stay your body to adapt to ever-higher levels.
A unique feature of PACE? - Gradually change your routine over time - provides maximum fat loss with a "bulletproof" heart and "super-sized" lungpower. Is not it time for you to seriously improve your health? I suggest you just click on the link to check cardio exercises Dr. Sears' program

Prelude To Love is a movie I came across (no pun intended) by accident
on satellite T.V in early 1996. It was a Saturday night, and I'd just
gone to bed, and was channel surfing, when I was confronted by the
sight of a voluptuous woman (Ashley Rhey) going at it with some guy. I
watched the rest of the movie transfixed, and when it was repeated, I
caught it from the beginning, which captured my attention straight
away, featuring as it did Tamara Landrey's character Jennifer doing
things with a male model backstage at a fashion show that I'm sure
Stella McCartney wouldn't approve of.
The thing about Prelude To Love is that it's actually quite a good movie. The storyline (underhand dealings in the world of fashion) is entertainingly handled, with the cast performing very well, especially the aforementioned Tamara Landrey, who is a brilliant bitch as the double-crossing Jennifer (the guy who plays the evil owner of the rival modeling agency is also a good actor, although he looks about twelve)
Okay, let's get to the important bit. The sex scenes in this movie are all good, both in terms of frequency and length, although the music used in these scenes is lousy. The best scene of the lot is where the characters Eric and Carrie hook up. Actress Doria Rone has one of the best orgasm faces in movies, and her energetic trashing about is highly watchable. The final scene, between Lanie and Eric on a pool table, is good, even if at one point it looks like Eric is trying to apply some bizarre wrestling move

Excellent as always
Andy B - Apr 20, 2017
We refer our customer vehicles to Simon's for paint correction, details, and washes. They always do a great job, and have really transformed some neglected vehicles. I bring all of our family cars to Simon's as well, wouldn't have them detailed anywhere else!
Full interior + protection
L.R. - Apr 12, 2017
I believe if you take care of your vehicle it will take care of you. I've never used Simons but will be back next time my tahoe needs some love. I take my truck hunting, fishing, use it to tow things and move furniture. It was very dirty inside. When I got it back It truly looked as good as the day I picked it up from the dealership. I sent pictures to my family because I couldn't believe it. Nice job.
Flawless To the Nines
R.E. - Apr 12, 2017
I took my car in for a too the nines shine..... It was superb. My car hasn't been and felt this clean in years. Definitely above the rest of the places you can take your car too. Everyone was detail oriented and I felt like I got what I paid for !!! GOOD JOB BY ALL
Rob Rose - Apr 8, 2017
The best wash by far in Chicago. Anytime I go elsewhere the more I appreciate Simon's. Not to mention the other exotic cars being detailed. It's better than the Auto Show!
Highly recommended
Paul M - Apr 4, 2017
Been going to Simon's about 10 years, never less than a great experience, looking forward to many more Thank you!

LOS ANGELES -- There have been many times over the course of this season when one could have wished to be a fly on the wall in the Los Angeles Lakers' locker room, their training room or even the Buss family living room.
The moments are far too many to number at this point and in the aftermath of the season just blend together like a marathon showing of "Jersey Shore."
But perhaps the most fascinating moment came Sunday night as Dwight Howard was inexcusably ejected from a game in which he was one of only two players from the Lakers' regular rotation able to walk.
Howard already had received a technical in the first half for complaining about a call, then picked up a second technical a little less than two minutes into the third quarter with the Lakers down 55-34. Many Lakers fans hadn't even made it back to their seats from halftime as Howard walked back to the locker room.
Less than two minutes after Howard's ejection, Kobe Bryant, who was watching the game from the Lakers' locker room, was making his way to the Lakers' bench on crutches.
He didn't want to be a distraction to the team but wanted to be as close to them as possible. He was at the Lakers' facility for practices and shootarounds, but disappeared before the media were allowed in. He also was in the locker room and training room at Staples Center before and after home games, but was nowhere to be found when the doors opened for the media.
His reaction in the locker room after Dwight's ejection was no doubt priceless and deserved a string of hashtag-laced tweets, had he not sworn off Twitter posts during games after it became a distraction in the aftermath of Game 1 in San Antonio.
Howard said by the time he got to the locker room, Bryant wasn't there and he had no idea he had walked out onto the court. Maybe Bryant wanted to be as far away from Howard as possible after his boneheaded decisions and lackluster performance (seven points, five turnovers and eight rebounds) and the furthest he could get without leaving was actually limping toward the bench.
Maybe Bryant just wanted to give the Lakers, down 58-37 with 8:47 left in the third quarter, some inspiration or the fans something to cheer about. But aside from a momentary standing ovation, a short "M-V-P!" chant and an even shorter 7-2 Lakers' run, that was about it.
Bryant was like a hobbled coach sitting behind the bench. He would get up and lean on his crutches as he yelled instructions at Darius Morris and Andrew Goudelock, then whispered in their ears when they sat down in front of him.
"He's always coaching," Goudelock said. "I'm like a dog when I'm listening to him talk. My ears stand straight up. You can't teach the things he's been through.
"I think he thought we felt a little push, a little motivation, a little something to get the crowd into it. I think he did that, but it's just tough."
Bryant wouldn't talk after the game and isn't scheduled to address the media after exit interviews on Monday and Tuesday. As he sat in the back of a golf cart and was asked about Howard being ejected, Bryant laughed as the cart sped away while reporters chased after him.
Howard probably wished he were able to speed away in the back of a cart as he was once again noncommittal about his future with the Lakers and unaware that Bryant walked out onto the court almost as soon as Howard left the court.
"I haven't seen him," Howard said. "I didn't see him. I didn't even know he went out there."
Either Howard wasn't being totally honest or he simply checked out of the game as soon as he was ejected and didn't care what his team did in the second half and was immune to why the crowd was cheering moments after he left. Either way, it wasn't a good look.
The beginning of the Lakers' offseason will begin the relentless debate about Howard and Bryant's relationship, which Howard hates talking about almost as much as his plans for next season.
"We've had a pretty good relationship before I got here and I think a lot of people twisted a lot of things," Howard said. "The fake fights that people said we supposedly had, we maintained a pretty good relationship and we'll continue to be here for him throughout a process that he has to go through recovering from his Achilles."
There had been a feeling that perhaps Bryant's injury may have brought the two players together. Howard visited Bryant in the locker room and at his house, and he made sure other players visited him, as well.
"I don't think that we were that far apart [before Bryant's injury]," Howard said. "We're not best friends, but like I said, I want to be there for him. Having an injury is a tough thing to deal with alone, and I just want to be there for him as a brother before anything."
Whether Howard will be there for him next season as a teammate, as well, or whether the two crossed paths at Staples Center for the last time as Lakers on Sunday won't be known anytime soon. That decision will just be the next episode in what has become Hollywood's most interesting reality show.
