Bike trails are a great way to get off of the busy highways and enjoy a more relaxing form of sightseeing. If you have a free afternoon for Orlando recreation, travel one of the area's many trails for the opportunity to see the simpler, quiet side of Central Florida.
Lake Eola Heights and Lake Lawsona Historic Districts
Once a vast citrus grove in the late 19th century, this area is now a quiet neighborhood on the edge of downtown Orlando. This 2.7-mile loop takes riders down tree-lined brick streets past some of Orlando's most famous historic homes.
Lake Cherokee and Lake Copeland Historic Districts
Lake Cherokee was one of the first residential communities in Orlando, dating all the way back to the 1870s. This 3-mile route takes riders through historic Orlando's most beautiful neighborhoods to provide the perfect setting for a leisurely ride.
Lake Cherokee and Lake Davis Loop
Lakefront vistas highlight this 3-mile ride near the center of the city. Breathtaking homes and scenic parks dot the landscape of one of the city's most active neighborhoods, where walking and riding are commonplace.
Lake Orlando Parkway Loop
Ride down some of Orlando's oldest trails on this loop through a quiet area of the city. Connecting the Rosemont Preserve with Rosemont Country Club, this loop takes riders through a seldom seen area of Orlando.
Cady Way Trail
Running from Orlando Fashion Square to the Seminole County line, this 6-mile trail is a favorite of bicycle riders, joggers and in-line skaters. Scenic city settings make this a trail not to be missed.
Lake Fran Trail
This residential trail lets riders see the way the locals live. The trail runs from Poppy Park to Dr. Smith Center along residential streets, past area schools and parks. This fun, safe 2-mile trail is another great course for leisurely riders.
Airport Connection
The "Rack N Roll" bike-on-bus routes go to and from the Orlando International Airport. Lynx racks hold 2 bikes at a time, and are extremely easy to use. They accommodate most single-rider bikes, including kids' bikes and all-terrain bicycles. There is no extra charge for bike transportation.

Offering little more than a funky Flash stadium audience and a pair of turntables, the site allows you to enter your email address and sign up for ongoing updates regarding the product. The biggest sliver of information is the confirmation that developer FreeStyleGames is heavily involved with the project.
FreeStyleGames has most recently been involved with Activision's downloadable content support for the Guitar Hero franchise. The other notable nugget is that the game is confirmed for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii.
Hang the DJ, hang the DJ, hang the DJ...
Bryn says: I believe I've already played this game. I think it must have been around 1999, the place was Tokyo, and I remember parting with a silly amount of money for a "deluxe" plastic turntable and a copy of Beatmania for the PSOne. It was a lot of fun -- for about a week.
Seriously, I've got reasonable expectations and hopes for DJ Hero. Among the glut of plastic instrument games we're going to see over the remainder of 2009 and heading into 2010, this one actually has some appeal to me.

Widgets are a race of people that are smaller in stature than the average Eternians. They live in a heavily-fortified though rather primitive fortress within Widget Woods. The Widgets play an important role in Eternia, guarding the mines which contain the extremely powerful mineral Coridite. Because this fact is known by most it often means that the Widgets are under attack from those wishing to obtain the Coridite. While the Widgets are very capable of taking care of themselves they occasionally have to summon He-Man via the signal flare. Kando is the leader of the Widgets with Squinch and Lara at his side.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The King University men's cross country team finished second in the NCAA Southeast Regional meet on Saturday, advancing to the NCAA Division II Championship for the second consecutive season.
King, the third-ranked team in the Southeast Region, narrowly edged second-ranked Georgia Regents University Augusta by two points for the second spot in the meet. The top three teams all advance to the Division II Championship on November 23 in Spokane, Wash. Conference Carolinas champions Mount Olive won the event with a total score of 53, placing all five scorers in the top 22 positions.
The Tornado continued this season's trend of running well in a pack, reducing the spread between the first- and fifth-place runners and scoring its points in a tight bunch. Spencer Frantom, King's top finisher, and fifth finisher Dickson Kurgat were separated by just 39.5 seconds and 13 point-scoring positions.
Tornado runners made their large jump in the middle third of the race, with the team moving into second place from a tie for third and King's top five runners gaining a total of 41 positions on the course, 31 of which came from sophomore Brent Swiney and freshman Tanner Cook.
Frantom, a senior, paced King as he has all season, finishing the race in 32:10.8. Swiney finished in 16th position, just one spot and 2.3 seconds behind Frantom. Cook finished in 20th position, while juniors Jordan Noe and Kurgat finished 23rd and 29th.
Frantom, Swiney, Cook, and Noe were named to the All-Southeast Region team as top 25 finishers. King's quartet of All-Region performers was second only to Mount Olive, who placed five runners on the All-Region team.
The second-place finish is the highest at an NCAA Region Championship in program history, an accomplishment that head coach Peter Dalton says demonstrates the program's advancement. "We finished 27th at nationals last season. Our goal is to finish in the top 20 this year. It's a great accomplishment to qualify for a national championship. I'm very impressed with our guys, and they deserve the opportunity to compete in this meet because of how hard they've worked."

Instructions for these paper snowflakes can be found everywhere, so this is nothing new. But they really are very easy to do, and when stuck up on the windows make everything look lovely and wintery; a really cheap but effective decoration!
You need:
- A4 white paper (or other - you could use shiny or glittery paper, or bigger or smaller)
- scissors
- an iron (not absolutely necessary but you'll see why it's handy)
- optional glue, glitter etc for decorating
Take your sheet of paper and fold it in half along the middle. The fold one corner over, so the bottom of that corner is in the middle of the folded edge.
The reason for doing all that is so that you get a six-pointed snowflake. Now you're ready to do your snowflake cuts. Make sure you leave enough of the folded edge to hold the snowflake together. Experiment with various shapes and cuts to get different snowflakes.
Carefully open up the paper. Now comes the iron! Because of all the folds you've made, the paper does not really lie flat. So if you iron it gently on a medium low heat, you can get rid of the creases, plus your snowflakes will be completely flat.
If you like, you can now decorate them. I think a little glitter would look nice, or a pearly spray paint.
I just left ours plain and put them up all over the windows.
We may have only had one day of real snow so far this winter, but that's not stopped us!

JavaFX represents quite a significant shift in the way Sun engages with the Java product market. Rather than focusing solely on the underlying technology, Sun is aiming to provide a complete solution for an individual market. With the first technology preview available and a version one release imminent, InfoQ takes a look at the platform and talks to Sun Staff Engineer Joshua Marinacci about the upcoming version 1 release.

But when will Java FX be release?
Lorenzo Jimenez
Re: But when will Java FX be release?
William Smith
As an aside I'm not sure how much Silverlight really matters yet. All the momentum seems to be with Adobe still and even there I don't think Flex is having the sort of impact that Flash has had yet. The RIA space still feels quite open to me so JFX could, in my view, make good inroads if Sun gets a lot of stuff right. The two big possible wins for JFX, I think, will be that it is open sourced (as highlighted in the article), and if it managed to have as much impact in the mobile space as JME has had.
Re: But when will Java FX be release?
Rhys Parsons
I am quite excited by JavaFX (as a Java developer, I'd rather use it than Flex, which I've been using for the last year and find simultaneously powerful and limiting); I hope I'm not disappointed. If you're familiar with the Java APIs, then using JavaFX is going to be much, much easier. Also, if you can use Java for the client and the server, then you can even by-pass web services and use RMI (not popular now, but I guess it's the closest alternative to BlazeDS).
I agree that the RIA space feels open. But Sun need to get Java onto corporate machines. If you sell to a bank and that bank doesn't allow Java on their desktops (some of the machines are restored every night) then targeting JavaFx for your solution isn't going to work.
Sun also need to eat their own dog food. Let's see some applets start to appear on Sun's web pages. Why no re-write www.sun.com using JavaFX, with a fallback to the html version?
If Sun don't start to use JavaFX and applet solutions, they can't expect anyone else to use it.

Does that still happen? Its been a while since I came across a company that didn't have a JRE as part of their corporate build. The problem might be getting them to move from whatever their certified version is (I still see a lot of 1.4 around) but if the app is good enough I imagine you can do it. I've actually been surprised by how much Java applet use there is in corporate intranets considering how unusual it is on the wider web.

That both Flash and Silverlight are entirely closed source proprietary tools remains a significant barrier to adoption in some developer shops.
Applet's reputation and Sun's bungling is a significant barrier to adoption in more shops.
Javadoc improvements, please

BTW: I do not agree that u10 made java more pleasant. It is still slow and instable as applets.

It is well known among staff and prisoners that if we file a grievance without any physical evidence, their failure to admit the allegations results in our claims being dismissed. Simply enough, they lie during any investigation. Outside pressure and exposure is one aspect that can counter this, which is what Rashid has been doing for years. Staff are now realizing this, too, and are retaliating to cause disruption and preserve their practices.

Car News
Saab 9-4x crossover SUV has arrived
Swedish car fans rejoice; the new Saab is here.
The all-new Saab 9-4x crossover SUV is now available in American showrooms. The car's future was in doubt, along with the rest of the company, when Saab offered for sale by General Motors in 2009.
The 9-4x is one of the last major collaborations between GM and Saab. The crossover is built on the same platform as the Cadillac SRX, but the design is all Saab.
The downward sloping window line and rear window evoke images of the 900 hatchback, one of the company's greatest hits, and a sort of cult classic for car enthusiasts.
Beyond design, Saab has tuned the suspension to give the ride a stiffer, more European feel, moved the ignition to the center console, a classic Saab trait.
And, shoppers who wanted the SRX with the once-available turbocharged V6 still have a way to equip their crossover with that engine. The 9-4x also shares its drivetrain options with the Cadillac, but on top of the 265 horsepower 3.0 liter V6, Saab has kept the optional 300 horsepower 2.8 liter turbocharged V6 that is no longer available as an option on the SRX.
The 9-4x has a standard front wheel drive system, but Saab's optional "CrossWheel Drive" all wheel drive system is available on the Aero trim. This means the SUV is capable of about 18-25 highway MPG depending on how the car is equipped.
And, the good genes from GM don't stop there. Like the SRX, the 9-4x was awarded the title of Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) earlier this month.
Saab has a lot riding on this little SUV. For years, the news out of Sweden has looked pretty bleak. But through it all, the quirky little brand has soldiered on, and now we're excited to see a new car make its way into the lineup.

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) - While hospital patients usually expect their caregivers to have a lot of experience, nurses and doctors in training have to get their practice somehow.
That could sometimes mean you are their first subject, but a Nashville university has brought in new technology that is changing that.
At the hospital inside the Lipscomb University nursing school, every bed is full.
However, each of the 19 patients doesn't run the risk of actually dying.
"Every mannequin has a name. His name is Fred," said instructor Tamara Baird.
The school uses mannequins which are configured to work, and become ill, just like humans.
Baird programs the dolls to have specific problems and ailments. One of them can even gives birth.
Students perform the procedures, and in this setting a mistake does not lead to a real emergency.
"We push the reset button, and we get to try that skill again," Baird said.
That feeling goes a long way when it means the caregivers have a better idea of what they are doing the first day on the job.
"I feel more confident in performing the procedure instead of trying for the first time on a real person," said student Phil Byrd.
The mannequins cost $60,000 to $90,000 each.
There is another advantage to the high-tech classroom at Lipscomb. In the case of a natural disaster or emergency, the hospital can even be used to treat real people.

Left: Approaching the fowl with stalking-horse. Right: Shooting with the stalking-horse. [Click on images to enlarge them.]
The frequent mention that is made by old writers of the device of the stalking-horse for the approach to wild-fowl, shows how much more abundant than at present the ducks, &c., must have been. In As You Like It, the Duke says of Touchstone, "He uses his folly like a stalking-horse, and under presentation of that he shoots his wit." The line "Stalk on, stalk on, the fowl sits," occurs in Much Ado About Nothing. The following sentence is from a sermon by Bishop Hall:— "Here one, if he can have no other ground, will make religion a stalking-horse to his covetous and ambitious intentions; it is Bellum Domini," a sacred war, that he wages for the reducing of heretics to the imity of the Church, or punishing their perfidiousness."
Though at the present day not likely to be referred to by a contemporary writer as an object with which most would be acquainted, it would seem to be better known to our American cousins. In the "Essay on Pope," by the author of the "Biglow Papers," occurs this passage: — "Milton was willing to peril the success of his crowning work by making the poetry of it a stalkinghorse for his theological convictions."
Mr. Harting gives a quaint description of this ancient device from the "Gentleman's Recreation," by Grervase Markham. It is as follows: — "Sometime it so happeneth that the fowl are so shie there is no getting a shoot at them without a stalking-horse, which must be some old jade trained up for that purpose, who will gently, and as you will have him, walk up and down in the water which way you please, plodding and eating on the grass that grows therein. You must shelter yourself and gun behind his fore-shoulder, bending your body down low by his side, and keeping his body still fiill between you and the fowl. Being within shot, take your level from before the fore part of the horse, shooting, as it were, between the horse's neck and the water Now, to supply the want of a stalking-horse, which will take up a great deal of time to instruct and make fit for this exercise, you may make use of any piece of old canvas, which you must shape into the form of an horse, with the head bending downwards, as if he grazed. You may stuff it with any light matter; and do not forget to paint it of the color of an horse, of which the brown is the best. It must be made so portable that you may bear it with ease in one hand, moving it so as it may seem to graze as you go."
In the "Privy Purse Expenses of King Henry VIII." are various entries referring to stalking-horses, all of which appear to refer to the live animal; and there is one entry relating to the stalking-ox. In Lacroix's excellent work [1595] occurs a representation of a stalking-horse of the date of the fifteenth century. It is a fac-simile of one of the curious miniatures in the illuminated manuscript of Gaston Phebus III., Count de Foix, and bears the title, "Comment on peut porter la toile pour trahir aux bestes." We gather firom M. Lacroix's remarks on the illustration, that the same device is in use at the present day in France, with the sole exception that the form of a cow is now preferred to that of a horse.
Like all contemporary authors, Gaston Phebus carefully directs attention to the moral side of "la chasse." "In hunting," says he, " one avoids the sin of laziness, for he who flees the seven mortal sms, according to our faith, should be saved; then the good hunter will be saved." An amusing, if not strictly logical statement of the case.
That the stalking-horse was anciently employed in partridge-shooting we have the testimony of Willughby's "Ornithology" (1678), referred to in Douce's "Illustrations of Shakspere." Idstone alludes to its use in the pursuit of woodcock, and quotes a Mr. Dobson, who writes that they also used a small kind of mongrel setters, bastardised through a dozen crosses, and broken by means of starvation and hard blows. As soon as the dog was set, the operator unslung his stalking-horse from his shoulder, and immediately commenced walking quickly round the dog, contracting his rounds every time. He thus describes the cock sitting terrified at the phenomenon of the stalking-horse whirling ever around him: "He sits squatted like a toad, with eyes prepared to take the horizon in." [195-99]

A wakeup call heeded as 'Mad Men' season ends
NEW YORK (AP) — We have now left Don Draper in a state ripe for rehab — both literally and figuratively.
Airing Sunday night, the season finale of "Mad Men" found its troubled hero reeling from one bender too many.
"I realized it's gotten out of control," he told his wife, Megan, after a night in a drunk tank after punching out a priest who ticked him off in a bar. "I've gotten out of control," he added.
No kidding.
In its penultimate sixth season spanning the turbulent year of 1968, this AMC drama charted Draper's downward spiral, cheating on his wife with a downstairs neighbor and wreaking havoc at the Manhattan ad agency where he used to be golden.
Until now a charismatic master of pretense, Draper by season's end acknowledged what every "Mad Men" viewer already knew: Don's fabled mojo had failed him. But he seemed prepared to take corrective action.
Did he have a lot of choice? In a startling scene, Draper (series star Jon Hamm) was summoned to a meeting for some bad news: He was being sidelined at Sterling Cooper & Partners.
That is, Draper was ordered to "take some time off and regroup," in the pointed words of fellow partner Roger Sterling (John Slattery).
This expulsion came after a powwow days earlier with the bosses of a possible new client, Hershey's Chocolate, where the silver-tongued Draper did what he does best: infusing the product with his own seductive myths.
Don had the Hershey execs spellbound with a heart-tugging recollection of his father rewarding him with a Hershey bar for mowing the lawn.
"Hershey's is the currency of affection," he rhapsodized. "It's the childhood symbol of love."
But then, as if suffering a crisis of conscience, he pulled a one-eighty. Always a master of revisionist history, Draper revised his pitch from fantasy to truth: He was actually an orphan raised in a whorehouse, he revealed, where, trying to capture the experience of a normal kid, he would eat a Hershey bar he got from one of the girls "who made me go through her john's pockets while they screwed."
Don's eyes moistened, his voice sank to a whisper in a scene that should clinch Hamm his long-withheld Emmy.
"Do you want to advertise THAT?" asked a puzzled Hershey exec.
"If I had my way, you would NEVER advertise," Draper answered. "And you shouldn't have someone like me telling that boy" — every happy, normal boy with a father who loves him — "what a Hershey bar is. He already knows."
It was a startlingly awkward moment for the agency partners, but a galvanizing moment of truth for Don.
This step toward redemption, if that's what it turns out to be, was likely triggered two episodes ago, when his teenage daughter Sally found him cheating on his wife. Sally was traumatized.
So was Draper at being discovered by her.
"It's the worst thing that ever happened to him," said "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner in a recent interview. "His pain and guilt and shame are indescribable."
It was the wakeup call Don was long overdue for.
"We discovered a lot about Don this year as he realized who he really is," Weiner said. "And we discovered that he doesn't want to be that way."
No wonder.
On the finale, he torpedoed the romance of longtime colleague Peggy Olson (Elisabeth Moss) with her new love, agency partner Ted Chaough (Kevin Rahm). Don facilitated Ted's wish to move to California with his family to separate himself from Peggy, breaking off their affair and thereby saving his marriage.
At the same time, Don put his own marriage in hock by breaking his earlier promise to Megan for them, not Ted, to make the move to California for the agency and make a fresh start of their own.
"The agency decided it," Don lied when telling her the change of plans.
Even with no inkling he had routinely betrayed her with a mutual friend who lived just one floor away, Megan had long felt he was growing more remote. His reneging on the move west with her was the last straw.
"You want to be alone with your liquor and your ex-wife and your screwed-up kids!" she seethed as she walked out the door.
Megan's words were an eerie echo of last season's conclusion, with Draper planted at a posh Manhattan bar and approached by a beautiful woman who asked, "Are you alone?" Viewers never learned what happened then.
What will happen next?
Painful recognition appears to be propelling "Mad Men" toward its final season, while leaving viewers to ponder how — or if — Don will patch up his marriage, his career and his relationship with Sally.
Weiner, who resumes the writing process soon, insisted many questions are yet to be settled.
On the other hand, he has had the final moments of the show in mind for years, he said, though he took pains to tamp down viewer expectations.
"There's no big reveal coming," Weiner declared. "What to leave the audience with is what I've been thinking about, and I have an image. But I don't want to oversell it. Honestly, I'm in denial about the show ending. But we'll get to it when we get to it — and then it will be on the air."
In the meanwhile, viewers are left with this image: Don Draper's newly discombobulated life. But signaling hope for both him and the audience, he seems to understand he can't just charm his way out of it.

Q. What are the NEC lighting and switching requirements for stairways?
A. In dwelling units, not less than one wall switch-controlled lighting outlet must be installed [210.70(A)(2)(a)]. Where the stairway between floor levels has six risers or more, a wall switch must be located at each floor level and at each landing level that includes an entryway to control the illumination for the stairway [210.70(A)(2)(c)].
There are no NEC requirements for lighting or switching in other than dwelling units, because this is a design issue.

Activision's popular CABELA series is great for hunters in the off-season, and the 2006 entry in the series, CABELAS DANGEROUS HUNTS 2 for the Xbox, offers yet another great adventure in the outdoors. As usual, players will be traveling the world looking for the biggest and most dangerous game, which includes wolves, cougars, bears, and even polar bears. This time, the game takes players through Australia, Africa, Alaska, and even to the frozen tundra of Siberia as they stalk the most wanted game. Players will have several options when it comes to choosing guns, bullets, and other accessories. Animal calls, traps, decoys, and bait are all available for sell and use in the wild. As players move through the single player missions, however, they will be given tasks other than just hunting down specific game. Some levels require players to keep wild animals away from a camp, save lost hikers from grizzly bears, or help an injured forest ranger get back to town. One of the most interesting additions to the game is the inclusion of slow motion time. Players can slow down time to line up that perfect shot. Slow motion time only lasts for a few seconds, however, so players still have to be quick on aiming and firing. CABELAS hunting games are always great, and CABELAS DANGEROUS HUNTS 2 is no exception. Gamers looking for the next big challenge in virtual hunting won't be disappointed.
Also known as: Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 06, Cabela's Dangerous Hunts: Kill or Be Killed

The Healthy Aging Practice (Part 3): Assess, Train, Retest
By Jeffrey Tucker, DC, DACRB
As we age, a number of conditions (e.g., mental confusion, visual loss) can rob people of their independence, but problems with physical mobility still rank at the top of the list. Only about 5 percent of the older adult (age 60 and older) population is considered to be at a high-fit or elite level. They do well with the "sports doctors" (DC, MD, PT). About 30 percent of the older population has already become physically frail and dependent. They do well with the PTs and home health care providers
That leaves about 65 percent of the adult population that is independent, but generally low fit. They do well with us (DCs). I know many of you want to work with the 5 percent (high-fit), but the truth is we can all be really busy helping to guide the 65 percent of the older population to stay independent, and detect evolving weaknesses before a loss of function and frailty occurs.
The process starts with evaluating patients and identifying risk factors so you can tell patients whether their physical capacity ranks in the above-normal, normal or below-normal category. Then you need to plan a program that includes healthy-aging fitness practices.
Do you have the mindset required to help your patients make decisions for healthy aging? I would love to see our profession take the challenge of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2011) goal for Healthy People 2020 of reducing the proportion of older adults who have moderate and severe functional limitations. I have always taught that we need to go beyond low back pain management and seek the rewards of embracing the big-picture health strategies. We will each need to excel at the nitty-gritty execution of a healthy aging practice.
If you help your patients / clients set personal goals based on objective data, this typically will increase patient motivation and improve compliance! The aging population is surveying the horizon to anticipate what's out there to help them through it all. The process of identifying risk factors, planning programs, educating patients and goal-setting are nothing you weren't taught in chiropractic college – it's the physical, mental, nutritional and technology all in one. The literature and information have provided us with more specific data recommendations.
The plan has always been important, but these days changes in information can come so much more quickly. Patients are always asking, "What else can I do?" "What exercise should I do?" "What vitamins should I take?" "What if…?" "What's the impact of this on my body, my mind?" You have to be ready for these questions.
In my office I use a formal scenario-planning process. A team of people put together an online software program that creates individual scenario planning based on tests such as lean muscle mass, body-fat percentage, hydration levels, blood pressure, medications, exercise tests, diet, etc. I can also include the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), stress testing, specialty vitamin blood testing, gait testing, and balance testing, along with standard medical tests. I guide the exam process and the treatment becomes more obvious – with the need to introduce therapeutic lifestyle changes (diet, exercise are at the top).
Because the patient is doing things (diet mostly) that change every day, I get to monitor this online. The patient knows that I am seeing what they enter into a food and exercise diary, and they say to themselves, "I'd better be good because the doctor might look at my profile today." So results and compliance go up.
The patient and I are a team. If we need to brainstorm, we can discuss what needs to be done on the phone, online or in the office. Suffice it to say, I am in touch with my patient. There's an institutionalized process, but also a constant on-the-fly process that's much less structured.
Improving Balance
For example, I can use several balance tests, such as the one-leg stand with eyes open / eyes closed, the 8-foot up-and-go test or a gait-analysis test. In-office balance treatment sessions include the stability pads, and for home use I have patients use a sofa cushion or they can purchase the stability pads to improve balance. They stand one-legged on the pads and move a medicine ball (or a 1-gallon milk jug or heavy book) from hand to hand, side to side, and behind the head. Once they've mastered the move with eyes open, they try it with eyes closed.
This simple test / train / retest process will improve balance, coordination and body control. I request that they spend five minutes doing this on a daily basis. Balance is an all-important fitness attribute.
Improving Motivation
I personally prefer to exercise before work in the morning, but I get that most of my patients aren't morning people. So, here is my suggestion to patients: "For a set period – usually four weeks – force yourself to get up 15 minutes earlier than normal and do any type of physical activity (walking in place or around the house; a little band work for strength; a little balance work)." Make it so easy that the patient doesn't even have to change into workout clothes.
As we get near the end of two weeks, I retest the bio-impedance analysis for fat loss and lean muscle mass. Then I might ask them to walk around the house holding a kettlebell in different arm positions. At or near the end of the four weeks, I retest again. I find that in many cases, we've created a new habit and will then be able to progress to greater amounts of exercise.
Test patients often in your office. Most visits, I use the SFMA; every two weeks, body composition; every four weeks, the FMS. The plan is simple: measure a variable (waist size, body fat, back-scratch test, range of motion, bench press) that equates to your end goal. Measure something that shows you the tangible results of the patient's training. And those tangible results translate into motivation.
The key is that I am in touch with what's happening in my patient's progress and I get to follow events very closely. This process is billable and will lead to increased compliance.
In today's health care environment, doctors must have one eye on the broad trends and at the same time a very clear view of day-to-day patient activities. I like the periodization concepts and explain to patients that we will implement a 90-day, 60-day or even 30-day cycle, and follow it for improvement with biomarkers such as body composition, gait / balance testing, the FMS and other standard tests (this could include bloodwork, etc.).
Do your patients ask you the same 20 questions over and over? For my answers, I have the big picture in mind – getting that mix of diet, exercise, rest, nutrition, mental attitude, and spirit right for my patient to slow down the degenerative process. I don't want to micromanage every little thing and constrain people, but at the same time, I want to provide sound advice. However, I am deeply involved with my patients about making big decisions that come up because I offer alternative and complementary health choices. The patient is allowed to make the final call. I continue to monitor patient progress using the online program and bio-impedance analysis, making sure I stay in touch with patients.
Ultimately, the success of your anti-aging strategy depends on the ability of you and your team to execute it. It's really fun and important to look ahead and work together. You and your patients will be thrilled with the results.

STOCKTON - Forty-one homeless dogs are scheduled to leave Stockton this morning en route to new homes in the Pacific Northwest, authorities said.
STOCKTON - Forty-one homeless dogs are scheduled to leave Stockton this morning en route to new homes in the Pacific Northwest, authorities said.
The dogs are being transferred to People United for Pets, a dog rescue organization in Seattle. Volunteers from Stockton's Animal Protection League will drive a van full of dogs from the Stockton Animal Shelter to Eugene, Ore. They will be met there by representatives of People United for Pets, who will then take the dogs to Seattle.
Approximately 1,200 dogs have found new homes through this program since 2010, officials said.
STOCKTON - Friends of the Lower Calaveras River will host the latest in a series of "river walks" at 10 a.m. today.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife biologist Donnie Ratcliff and educator Jim Marsh will lead the walk on the south bank at University of the Pacific, where volunteers recently planted native grass and flowers in a new restoration project.
Free coffee and light snacks will be provided. Meet at the footbridge over the river.
SONORA - The Stanislaus National Forest is calling for artists to apply for this year's Artist in the Woods program.
Artists who are chosen will stay in a historic cabin in the high country along Highway 108 for two weeks in September or October. The artists will also receive a stipend for meals, some travel expenses and some money to purchase supplies.
In return, the program asks that the artists donate an original piece of art work and teach a workshop for the public on their discipline. In the case of actors, storytellers, dancers and musicians, the donated work would be a performance.
The Three Forests Interpretive Association teams up with the Stanislaus National Forest to offer this program.
Information on Artist in the Woods, including digital copies of art donated in previous years, is available online at fs.usda.gov/stanislaus, or by calling (209) 965-3434 ext. 5343 or emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
STOCKTON - Nicholas Kristoff, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist, will be speaking at University of the Pacific next month, discussing what Americans need to know about the world as part of the School of International Studies bi-annual Gerber Lecture Series.
Kristoff's speech at 7 p.m. Feb. 25 will take place at Faye Spanos Concert Hall and is free to the public. Kristoff has worked at the New York Times since 1984, won his first Pulitzer in 1990 for his coverage of China's Tiananmen Square democracy movement and his second in 2006 for his writing on the genocide in Darfur.
Pacific has had the Gerber series since 2001 and past speakers include Archbishop Desmond Tutu, former president of Ireland Mary Robinson and former Mexican President Vicente Fox.

I've set myself goals in life so that it doesn't get boring
For me, life is living another day without depression, having good grades and a future, doing fun stuff while it lasts and helping people and friends.
my kids, anime, beer and smokes
My life consists of a mom who is always there for me, a dad who is far away but still cares about me, a sister who wants me to get out of the house, my other sister who thinks I'm ignorant and lazy, friends who either think I'm kind, crazy or a loner.
It also consists of school, trying to find a job, volunteering, playing video games, watching anime, making new friends, and sleeping for at least 8 hours a day.
Sounds boring to many people, but I try to enjoy life because I may be gone tomorrow. . Carpe diem- seize the day!
To quote The immortal John Lennon from his song watching the wheels
"Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind,
I tell them there's no hurry...
I'm just sitting here doing time,
You got a bad attitude Pops. Lighten up before your arteries harden!
Winterfells wrote:
Play by your own rules then.
If non-participation makes you happy, go for it.
Playing by your own rules can get you booted and banned from the server for a while (i.e. getting locked up by the authorities.)
I figure that if the game gets too boring or the overall game play goes too far south I'll just rage-quit and nuke my account.
My life?
There used to be a time when I was a perfectly normal kid that did perfectly normal things. I never liked being the center of attention, I hated responsibility and hated wasting energy. In fact, I would be perfectly happy sitting at home as a kid, alone with nothing but Manga and Video games to keep me company.
But that's when IT happened.
Everything changed, my perfectly normal, boring, status quo life...was ruined in but a single moment.
I don't know if I should go on, seems exhausting.
Life for me is just simply boring. I don't really have a big interest in anything in particular so I spend my time reading, sleeping and learning minor skills. I have no goals or plans to set goals for myself. I will simply do what is needed to continue my existence until I die.
Anime, Baseball, Video Games and Linkin Park
"The hardest part of ending is starting again" - LP
my life boring full of disappointment knowing ill probably never amount to anything to good in life. and yeah i agree life needs to be more interesting i mean what do we do go to school/work then go home not so exciting i mean yeah sure there are those days you may go out and do something but how often is that? i just wish life were like an anime id be he happiest person alive
waffles lots and lots of waffles
To me, life is filled with happiness and sorrow. My life is filled with light and dark. And I swore, today was the worst day of my awesome life! I found out a horrible truth about my suppose 'love'. He date someone else behind me!!
I'm so saaad....
Back with only one thing in mind
Life for me is being way to optimistic. It's fun to stay home alone all day and play games and watch anime. Its fun to go to work. Its fun to hang out with people. Only problem I have is being indecisive at times.
Not sure what life means to me, as I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it. Though I do make it a personal goal to go out each day and make at least one person smile.
You are now required to feel a smidgen of happiness.
Life is something waiting to be discovered, if living defines life how can be doing the same routine thing be called living, that wat I believe right now, I find it useless to go to school all day, just waiting for my time to come when I can begin it. I may regret it in the future but u know wat who cares, life has many experiences and if I can't regret then life would be missing something
If getting an education mean a future for a job and money then that might be something I won't want, who else think it might be fun to run away while we're still young and just live on our own to to anyplace like maybe New York and start from the bottom washing dishes and finding our own passions without anyone pushing us, it might be selfish but there are something in life that we all search for so just go for it
Let Me Chill
Life for me is like...
Challenge 1: Get born
2.Watch lots of anime
4.Get friends
5.Get a job
6.Fighting against all the hardships
7.Make a good family
8.Grow old and not be scared to use your money and enjoy your life b4 you die by some weird accident.
Hiatus? Sounds like some heavy sickness of some sort. Huh? A Break? Oh okay.

I am looking for a kite destination for a month, a month and half.
Around Christmas or early Jan. till mi Feb.
I will be leaving from Montreal, Canada.
Up to now, my choice would be Philippines, and Boracay would be my 1st choice, at least for few weeks.
Seems like a nice and cool place. Like I like them. I have done Belize, Honduras. Looks a bit the same. Some upper scale place, some backpackers ones too. and everything in between.
I have 2 concerns mainly: how to get there? From MNL to Boracay? Any experience?
I will have a huge lite bag (5' long/150cm). 25kg or so.
I am not sure how easy it is to deal with flying from Montreal. I had luck few times, but...
I am not familliar with Asian companies.
Second concern: accomodation: I have read a bit about it. I think I will find something easily.
I like small hotel/ hostel, but with my own room. Relaxed, chill places, backpackers oriented.
I am pretty sure I will find something I like once there.
How crowded it is at this time of year? Could it be totally booked?
I usually book something in advance for 3 nights.
Any good place for kiters?
Also, I am reading about kiting spots in the Philippines. I would not mind traveling a bit and see different spots around. I don't plan to go all over the country. But either flying to another area and find another cool village or 2. Or by bus, from Bocaray, try to see some other good spots.

Oh Hey, Half the PRISM Slideshow Just Joined Anti-Surveillance Day
Yesterday, we called the coalition behind "The Day We Fight Back," an initiative protesting mass surveillance, to find out why NSA-friendly tech giants had not signed up alongside Reddit, Tumblr, and other companies for today's event. Just wait, they said.
And sure enough, some logos you might recognize from the PRISM slideshow came out (just in time!) to voice their support, including Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Twitter.
David Segal, cofounder and executive director of Demand Progress, told Valleywag:
"We were happy to have the support of the Reform Government Surveillance Coalition, and especially Google — which emailed a large list of activists that it accrued over the SOPA fight and endorsed the USA FREEDOM Act — and Twitter, which tweeted to nearly 30 million followers."
Demand Progress, which is known for its fight against SOPA, was cofounded by Aaron Swartz. A press release about today's event says:
["The Day We Fight Back"] was announced on the eve of the anniversary of the tragic passing of activist and technologist Aaron Swartz. The protest is both in his honor and in celebration of the victory over the Stop Online Piracy Act two years ago this month, which he helped spur [...]
According to Roy Singham, Chairman of the global technology company ThoughtWorks, where Aaron was working up until the time of his passing: "Aaron showed us that being a technologist in the 21st century means taking action to prevent technology from being turned against the public interest. The time is now for the global tribe of technologists to rise up together and defeat mass surveillance."
It's hard to see how social media slacktivism—like changing your avatar, putting up a website banner, or developing memes, as the press release suggests—will compel these companies to slam the back door on the NSA's foot. But at least they're not spouting the "treason" defense anymore.

Editor: Dear county commissioners:
Editor: Dear county commissioners:
Our county and its municipalities are ready to realize the full potential of a thriving community and a promising future. Tax revenue from the sale of alcohol is one of the many pieces to realizing these dreams.
Our desire is to be permitted to determine by vote whether alcohol sales are allowed in Davidson County. So, I humbly ask that you support those who supported you. I ask that you take the opportunity to exercise your duty and listen to the voices of the people who so graciously elected you their county commissioners. Of course, we respect that there are differing points of view on this issue, but that is all the more reason for you to take this to the voters and to give our democratic process an opportunity to work.
It matters little whether each person supports or does not support the sale of alcohol. The crux of the matter here is that you in your capacity as county commissioners allow our voices to be heard by acting upon the power that only you hold and put the sale of alcohol to a ballot vote by the people. Inaction in your capacity as a county commissioner is suppression of our voices, and it is the mark of a tyrant to attempt to suppress the voice of their people
There are two innate forces within each of us. One is tyranny. The other is liberty. While they coexist within us, they cannot coexist outside of us; for where one reigns the other is suppressed. Each of us has a measured desire for power, to rule, to govern and to dominate. What separates good intentions from evil intentions is the wisdom to govern through liberty.
We are asking that you put our voice before your privilege to govern. Put our voice before your own personal beliefs. Put our voice, the voice of the people, before your elected power as commissioners. The voters of Davidson County deserve an opportunity to be heard on this issue.
We can do it without you, and if we must we will, but we would rather do it with you. We are asking for your support. By voting you as our county commissioners, we trusted that you would represent us. Now, we are asking that you honor that trust.
So whose voice will you heed, the oppressive rhetoric of tyranny or the divine wisdom of liberty? With whom do your loyalties lie, this body of seven or the throng of 100,000 citizens? Lastly, whom will you serve, yourself or the people?

I am 16 and have been in my current relationship for 4 months with a 23 year old. The age gap is not an issue with anyone, or ourselves, so we are very happy together. The relationship is going great.
As i am young and have only slept with one other guy than my current partner, i feel very unexperianced. I would like to ask for any tips anybody might have as i am running out of ideas for actions in the bedroom. I want to show my partner that even though i am young i want to give him the pleasure than an older girl might be able to give him. He dont force me to do anything which is great, and he takes his time with everything, constantly asking if im okay and if im feeling comfortable Ect. Which i think is very sweet of him.
So anyway, back to the subject, Any tips or advice would be much apprishated.
Thanks all.

How do I become CPR and first aid certified?
You can earn CPR training and receive first aid certification in a number of ways. Choose an online course to learn the materials remotely and then find a testing location to complete the certification process with an in-person demonstration of your knowledge and skills. Encourage your workplace to host a first aid and CPR training so employees can learn what to do in case of a workplace emergency and how to respond with lifesaving techniques. You may also be able to take a CPR or first aid class in your community. A basic CPR training may run four to five hours. After receiving CPR training, you'll know how to respond if an adult or a child goes into cardiac arrest or stops breathing. You'll learn how to use chest compressions to keep blood pumping to a person's organs, which can keep them alive until an emergency responder can arrive. First aid and CPR training can also include education about how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED).
What is CPR training?
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (better known as CPR) is a lifesaving manual technique that pumps oxygenated blood back into the body's organs if someone's heart or breathing has stopped. A variety of CPR training is available to community members, employees and healthcare providers. CPR training may last two to five hours or more, depending on the content and the target audience. During the training, students will learn how to recognize and respond to an emergency situation. There are different CPR techniques for adults and children, but with both you will learn how to determine whether the person is conscious before administering chest compression. During the training you'll learn chest compression techniques for adults and different techniques for children between the ages of 1 and 8. Students learn how to properly administer chest compressions, when the technique is appropriate and when it is not, and how long you must perform rescue measures. Students also learn what an automatic external defibrillator (AED) is and how to use it if necessary to shock a patient before administering CPR chest compressions.
What is first aid training?
With first aid training, you may be able to help save a life. First aid training can teach people who are not medical professionals how to help a sick or injured person in crisis before an ambulance arrives on the scene. Most commonly, first aid training helps teach you how to administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use automated external defibrillators (AEDs).
First aid training can teach you how to respond in a variety of emergency situations, including:
- Asthma attack
- Anaphylaxis
- Burns
- Choking
- Diabetic emergencies
- External bleeding
- Heart attack
- Poisoning
- Neck, head or back injury
- Stroke
- Seizure
First aid training classes may be offered by professionals who are affiliated with the Red Cross, which offers online, in-person, and blended training classes. First aid classes are also often offered through local recreation centers, city services, schools, hospitals and private companies.
What can you do with a first aid certificate?
People with a first aid certificate are trained to respond quickly and appropriately in life-threatening situations. Although a first aid certificate alone isn't enough to secure a job, it can make you more attractive to certain types of potential employers. When you have a first aid certificate, you've proved that you know how to administer cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), use an automated external defibrillator (AED), and handle emergency situations like choking, heavy bleeding, a heart attack or stroke, or anaphylaxis. Most parents prefer babysitters and lifeguards with first aid certification. Many professionals, especially those who work with children, are required to have first aid training, including teachers, coaches, counselors and therapists, firefighters, and social workers. In addition to adult and pediatric first aid plus CPR and AED courses, you can take first aid training specifically designed for babysitting and child care, for health care settings, and for swimming and water safety situations..
How do you get your first aid certificate?
To get your first aid certificate, you must take a first aid training course designed for certification. Certified training professionals offer courses to employers, schools or other groups. For an in-person training, you may go to a training location such as a Red Cross classroom, or a professional first aid and CPR trainer can come to you or your office. Most first aid training courses take three to five hours or more, which prepares you to take the first aid certification test. To boost your chances, you can take online practice tests or review study guides. Once you pass the first aid exam, an official digital certificate is emailed to you. You can also have a wallet card or printed certificate sent to you.

I mentioned that I have asked the black belts in my dojo to prepare lectures based upon this blog. They can talk about any post made here, and then elaborate.
The results have been excellent. Each student has done very well and brought out things I had not thought of. This blog serves its function when it makes people think about the art. It certainly makes me think, especially about what I will write next!
In addition, it is good for black belts to practice speaking in front of the class. Our class begins and ends class in a circle, so the speaker can easily see all of the students. Public speaking is a very useful skill, not only in Karate but in school and work as well.
I will soon ask the non-black belts to also prepare lectures. Eventually, I will ask all my students to participate.
Last night, one of my students gave a talk and mentioned that he often felt that I was writing certain posts about him. See: Not About You. I always felt this way when my Aikido Sensei gave lectures. I think it is because we address subjects that are common to everyone and part of our daily lives. And in the end, isn't that what Karate is all about -- enhancing our daily lives?
Thank you very much to everyone who reads this blog and especially to everyone who has emailed me comments and sometimes corrections. I will continue to try my best.
Charles C. Goodin

... I ... J P Morgan CEO Jamie diamonds while a little bit later this morning that it ... will be just fine ... we are still unbelievably still talking about the London whale because not only did Jamie diamonds will will ... that the task force the internal task force ... reach their conclusions they released a report this morning ... a little look at here to stay ... as chief executive officer Mr Diamond's appropriately relied on senior managers who directed and written report to him to escalate significant issues and concerns ... however ... he could have been attested his reliance ... on what he was told that is one of the conclusions ... of the taskforce morning welcome to the markets of everybody ... I'm Paul vignette talk about all that ... day Benoit Deal Journal blogger is on here ... so I guess that the one thing is Jamie diamonds salary cut right yes I estimate the diamond is cut in half from last year ... I'm still makes eleven million dollars as it has become and is still not ... a nice nice not to bring home right on that specifically was cut because of the London really Exec Lee and so the esoteric have to report him and said the Internal castle for ... task ... force report which is ... the guys that were sent invited banks to clean up this disaster ... since been promoted to to to really top positions in ... and then there's a board report come in analyzing the board's actions and diamonds actions ... in May ... don't let him off the hook is not is not really basses much sex a couple other executives get to news reports from above ... but his pace and have been easy yet as as you read ... on if ... he could of done better as he was a cinch ... of course the last six billion dollars debt ... so what else did you learn today from us by so with a broad and so kind of in the in the taskforce conclusions which have kind of Ben and Jamie Dunn is Khona type vocals total billings testified about it ... is ... a sensitive takeaway is ... one in this group the Chief Investment Office ... predicted the Chief Investment Officer minded room with no one at her home until June and was in awe as an owner is going to resign shortly after this ... they don't they use the word failed multiple times I've ... costs explained how I just add oversight will be the Schermer diamond cut of his depended on danger even since July has been ... no backing ... but that the reports pretty stark language firmer ... and also to CFO ... Doug Braunstein is no longer CFO named chief risk officer Barry zero is also no longer chief risk officer so ... really the report ... laid the blame at the foot of the top management of the biggest bank in a country for for this ... I mean what his bullish over the job like that ... these things here responsibility ... um what else did we learn from this report what sort of internal processes to him is located in the right for a while and I'd like to launch the right ... we didn't have proper risk management control set in place ... someone is resonated admit this ... the CIO ... was was Khona soaring its balance sheet is ... getting bigger and bigger and bigger ... in the bank didn't really look at that didn't really take into account that while setting its risk ... object is and ... kind of ... making sure it was under control so kind of ... it seems like a ... pretty big oversight Barron's playing this ... as one ... entity grow at a controlled know ... your member was wildly profitable so that's what happened ... aam ... we also have learned ... actually I think ... kind of interest when one of the twenty oh is is they don't actually think compensation ... impact of that that this much ... they say ... essentially if the traders that were doing this position them are hiding their losses ... were told on about front was in Uganda why nonexistent the will impact your pay that much are so be paid fairly ... mini me New would've done better but that ... they don't believe competition is the driving force behind to win his heat and the reporter earnings and earnings were no better than expected but admits that gas stocks down on she arrived and I might want ... to do a awesome you know that the question is ... and and ...

1940s Nightgown
Added Jul 4, 2012
by Ywea
Norway, Norway
In a month it is time for "The Island of Lost Girl's". To make a long story short : This is a big LARP that Iam hosting. The story for the larp is set to the year 1945 and World War II is over. There is finally peace and tolerance in Norway, but at the State's Detention Camp for Women on Hovedya in Oslo, the case is quite different. We want a historic LARP that focuses on the treatment of the girls after the war ended in 1945. How was it to be a Jerry-bag? What was it like to be harassed, hated and punished for having a crush? And how was life in the internment camp? And how was it for the soldiers who worked at such a place….. read more about the project here: http://www.ywea.net/de-fortapte-pikers-oy-the-island-of-lost-girls/
The LARP will go on for a full week and I need something to wear. It's not like I do not have a closet full of vintage clothes, but most of them are from the late 1940's or beginning of the 50s. Thus, I need something else to wear. This is a great opportunity for me to sew a lot of new great 1940s clothes, but now I'm starting to run out of time. (Why did I wait until the last minute to start sewing?)
My first sewing project is this Simplicity 4758 nightgown pattern from the early 1940s . The bodice is gathered into a rounded waistline seam as well as gathered into the shoulder seams. The bias-cut skirt is finished with a tie belt. The nightgown buttons down the front. The skirt is bias cut and slightly flared. I bought the pattern from B N Vintage on Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/BNVintage
