Reduxx TrimSuit
The key to seeing results in any training method is to mix up the workout. Muscle memory helps your body adapt to exercise and eventually instead of training, the muscles are just going through a process. A great way to mix up your training session is by the induction of the Reduxx Trimsuit, which is a weighted vest designed to assist with resistance training.
Your body has its peaks and no matter how many kickboxing sessions or sprints you run, you'll start to see diminishing results. Adding a weighted suit to any type of workout will instantly wake up the muscles, and make them work harder. The great thing about adding weighted training to your cardio exercise is that when you again approach those peaks, you can simply increase the amount of pounds in the suit.
Using The Suit In Everyday Tasks
The suit is designed with comfort in mind. This convenient approach makes it easier for a person to carry on with everyday chores such as cleaning the house or going for a walk with the children. The great thing is that even though you're just doing normal things, the body is getting a workout underneath. When you initially start wearing the suit, your tasks are considerably harder. This enables your body to burn calories as the task takes more effort to achieve. If you don the suit religiously, you'll eventually start to build muscles in your legs and back and you'll notice a diminishing waistline. Also, by wearing a resistance training suit around the house or at work, you're also building up endurance and won't be out of breath doing simple tasks.
Is The Suit Noticeable
The trim suit has the appearance of a body suit so it's perfectly acceptable to wear around the house or in your backyard. The actual weights are located in the thigh, shoulder, chest, and upper arm so loose fitting clothes can equally fit over top of the suit. In effect, you're wearing your gym as you don this training suit so do so as you see fit.
The real benefits of weighted training comes when you take off the vest after using it for awhile. You'll notice more explosiveness, better endurance, and a fitter body just from doing what you'd normally do. If you have chores to do tomorrow, why not call 1-800-434-3344 and do them in a Reduxx TrimSuit? You can also contact us online.
Resistance training is a style of exercise that includes some form of weight added externally, causing your muscles to contract. There are different ways of practicing resistance training, many of which require you to hold weights such as dumbbells or barbells. With the Reduxx TrimSuit, the added weights are directly on your body, making it easier to practice resistance training.
Though the benefits of resistance training seem to be made up of weight loss and building up strength, there are so many other great benefits that embody resistance training. Other assets include:
– Stronger bones
– Increased mood
– Less risk of injury
– Reduced chance of chronic conditions
– Boost stamina
With the Reduxx TrimSuit acting as your resistance, you will be on your way to achieving these benefits and attaining a great lifestyle. The streamline design of the TrimSuit allows you to wear it comfortably underneath your clothes or as is. If you are a beginner to resistance training and nervous about jumping into a difficult and overwhelming exercise regime right away, wearing the Reduxx TrimSuit and doing daily tasks and chores is the perfect way to start. Just by adding additional resistance weight to your body, your muscles react immediately by contracting. This action tears microfibers in your muscles, a process called catabolism. Once the muscle fibers are broken down, your body begins to regenerate the muscles, or go through the process of anabolism. This process of repairing the muscles make them grow back stronger than they were prior to the exercise, which leads to muscle growth and improvement in strength.
Although wearing the resistance training suit is most effective with a balanced diet and regular exercise, the flexibility and freedom of the weighted suit allows for a wide range of uses. The TrimSuit by Reduxx is form fitted, allowing you to naturally go about your daily tasks while providing you with a workout and less risk of injury. As with all weight loss devices, consult your doctor before use. Call us at 1-800-434-3344 for more information about the Reduxx TrimSuit and its benefits or to place an order.
The Reduxx TrimSuit is a weighted vest designed to help individuals gain fitness and lose weight through increased resistance training. The Reduxx TrimSuit is an additional tool that helps men and women burn more calories and tone their bodies while doing normal every day activities, performing athletic training activities or going to the gym.
The TrimSuit is constructed from high quality neoprene fabric that's designed to move with the wearer's body so that it doesn't hinder movement. The only resistance the wearer feels is the resistance of the weights as he or she moves their body. It's also thin enough that it can be worn under normal every day clothing.
The Reduxx TrimSuit is a weighted body suit that is stylish and provides enough cover that it can be worn by itself around the house, at the gym or on a jog. The suit works by adding additional weight to the wearer's body. The added weight translates into added resistance which means increased muscle activity.
Women's Reduxx TrimSuits come with eight pounds of weights, and men's Reduxx TrimSuits come with ten pounds of weights. The weights are spread across the shoulders, upper arms, chest and thighs to provide a total body resistance workout while performing normal everyday tasks such as vacuuming, folding clothes or performing yard work.
The Reduxx TrimSuit can also be worn while running or jogging to add extra resistance to cardio workouts. It can be worn to the gym to provide extra resistance while biking, using the treadmill, using the elliptical and while lifting weights.
The Reduxx TrimSuit works best with a balanced diet and a regular exercise regime. As with all weight loss devices, consult your doctor prior to use. For more information on the resistance training suit by Reduxx and its benefits or to place an order, call us at 1-800-434-3344.
I have worn my Reduxx Trimsuit in so many different situations and I am always looking for new workouts I can perform while wearing a weighted exercise suit. I believe I have found a series of workouts perfectly matched for the TrimSuit. The program is called the Eternal Beach Body Workout. I found the program in Men's Fitness Magazine a few years ago when I received my first suit (a proto-type). I trained with the program wearing my TrimSuit for the recommended 12 weeks and saw incredible results. I had not experienced results from any type of workout or exercise since my late teens and early 20's (more than 20 years ago). I feel so strongly and am so excited about these results, I feel I should "re-share" the Men's Fitness Magazine exercise program with you adding in my own adjustments for the resistance involved when wearing the TrimSuit weight suit.
From the Eternal Beach Body Workout article by T.R. Goodman in Men's Fitness Magazine:
Directions for Phase I [My Edits and Additions in Bold Italic]
FREQUENCY: Perform each workout in numerical order with a day of rest between each. The program includes three workouts per week. Each workout is a circuit that may include exercises from previous workouts but the sequence will be different.
HOW TO DO IT: Perform the exercises as straight sets, completing all the prescribed sets for an exercise before moving on.
WEIGHT: Unless otherwise stated, use the heaviest weight that allows you to complete all the prescribed repetitions for each set. For most of these exercises, you'll need to be conservative. Focus on keeping perfect form and completing each rep without momentum.
Workout 1/Week 1 of our 12-Week Series
1. External Rotation on Bench
Sets: 2 Reps: 12 Rest: 45 Seconds
Hold a light dumbbell or weight plate in your left hand and lie on a bench on your right side. Bend your elbow 90 degrees and allow your arm to rest against your left side, your left hand over your abs. Keeping your elbow against your side, rotate your forearm toward the ceiling. Reverse the motion to return to the starting position. That's one rep. Complete 12 reps, switch arms and repeat. The weighted exercise suit adds additional resistance to this exercise with the placement of weights against the upper arm.
2. Lying Rotators on Bench
Sets: 2 Reps: 12 Rest: 45 Seconds
Hold a light dumbbell or weight plate in your left hand and lie on a bench on your right side. Allow your arm to hang down to the floor, so it's draped over your torso and the back of your hand faces away from you. Leading with the heel of your hand, raise your arm straight up and overhead until it's perpendicular to the floor, and then return to the starting position. That's one rep. Complete 12 reps, and then switch arms and repeat. The TrimSuit adds resistance from upper arm weight and partially from the shoulder weights.
3. Lying Superman with Alternating Arms
Sets: 2 Reps: 12 Rest: 45 Seconds
Elevate a flat bench with some weight plates or boxes so that when you lie facedown on it, your arms won't touch the floor. Hold a light dumbbell or weight plate in each hand and lie facedown on the bench. Raise both arms behind you so that they are close to your sides. Now raise one arm straight up in front of you until it's in line with your torso, but hold the other arm where it is (you should look like Superman flying through the air). Lower that arm back to your side, and then raise the opposite arm. That's one rep. The placement of arm weights in the Reduxx TrimSuit enhances this exercise without adding additional strain on joints.
4. Bench Dip
Sets: 2 Reps: 12 Rest: 45 Seconds
Place your hands behind you on a bench and rest your feet on another bench or box in front of you. Bend your elbows and lower your body until your upper arms are parallel to the floor. Push yourself back up to the starting position. That's one rep. Wearing the Reduxx TrimSuit adds almost the entire 10 pounds to this particular exercise.
5. Triceps Pushup
Sets: 2 Reps: 10 Rest: 45 Seconds
Attach a rope handle to the top pulley of a cable station. Hold an end of the rope in each hand, and tuck your elbows tight against your sides (this should put tension on the cable). Without allowing your elbows to move forward, squeeze your triceps and straighten your arms. Reverse the motion to return to the starting position. That's one rep. Wearing the TrimSuit causes you to tighten your core during this exercise to avoid bending over or losing form.
6. Bent-Knee Hip Rotation
Sets: 2 Reps: 12 Rest: 45 Seconds
Lie on your right side and bend your hips and knees 90 degrees. Without moving your hips, rotate your left leg toward the ceiling (it should look somewhat like a dog raising his leg at a fire hydrant). Reverse the motion to return to the starting position. That's one rep. Complete 12 reps, and then switch legs and repeat. This exercise is especially enhanced by the weights positioned on your thighs by the TrimSuit.
7. Rollouts (High Groove)
Sets: 2 Reps: 15 Rest: 45 Seconds
Lie on your right side with your right leg straight and your left hip and knee bent 90 degrees, suspended over the floor. You can place your left palm on the floor for support. Keeping your right hip bone in contact with the floor, rotate your hips to your right and extend your left hip so that you're reaching with the left knee, trying to touch it to the floor without losing contact between your right hip bone and the floor. Reverse the motion to return to the starting position. That's one rep. Complete 15 reps, and then switch sides and repeat. This exercise is enhanced by the upper thigh weights on the TrimSuit.
8. Bent-Knee Static Bridge
Sets: 2 Reps: Hold for 90 Seconds Rest: 45 Seconds
Get into pushup position, and then bend your elbows 90 degrees so that your forearms are resting on the floor. Bend your knees as well so that they rest on the floor to support you (raise your feet in the air if you want to make the exercise more challenging). Your body should form a straight line. Hold the position for 90 seconds. That's one set. This exercise will be very intense because of the TrimSuit's placement of all weights across chest, shoulders, arms and legs.
9. Bent-Knee Static Oblique
Sets: 2 Reps: Hold for 90 Seconds Rest: 45 Seconds
Support yourself on your right elbow and forearm and bend your knees 90 degrees and rest them on the floor. Your body should form a straight line. Hold the position for 90 seconds, and then switch sides and repeat. That's one set. As in number 8 above, this exercise will be very intense because of the TrimSuit's placement of all weights across chest, shoulders, arms and legs.
You have completed Workout 1/Week 1 wearing your Reduxx TrimSuit. The workout is relatively intense even without the weighted exercise suit. Adding the TrimSuit with targeted resistance to specific muscle groups provides more benefit than performing the exercises alone. Check back for Workout 2/Week 1 and call 1-800-434-3344 to get your Reduxx TrimSuit to provide a powerful resistance training suit to your workout!

The cold of winter combines with holiday feasting to cause unsightly weight gain. Many people respond by adopting the latest fad diet to shed those extra pounds before warmed weather arrives, but these are difficult to follow and can cause side effects, including weight rebound. The sure way to get rid of the holiday bulge in time for summer is with exercise, and the Reduxx TrimSuit can help this effort along.
Adding Resistance to Everyday Activities
Whether it is walking the dogs in the morning or those frequent trips to the office copier, you are burning calories. The ticket to weight loss is to burn more than is consumed in the day.

Kim Jong Il's Exploits Praised by German Organization
| Pyongyang, February 21 (KCNA) -- The German Branch of the Korean Friendship Association released a statement on February 13 on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's proclamation of the programme for modeling the whole society on Kimilsungism.
The statement said:
Supreme leader Kim Jong Un clarified in his New Year Address that it is necessary to consolidate the Party organizationally and ideologically, prepare all the members of society as Kimilsungists-Kimjongilists and cement the single-minded unity of the revolutionary ranks in this significant year, in which the DPRK greets the 40th anniversary of the programme for modeling the whole society on Kimilsungism advanced by Kim Jong Il.
Thanks to the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il the modeling of the whole society on Kimilsungism has been successfully realized.
As Kim Jong Il successfully solved the issue of succession to the leadership, a firm guarantee was provided for the victorious advance of the revolutionary cause of Juche pioneered by President Kim Il Sung.
It was a very wise measure that Kim Jong Il advanced the above-said programme.
The Korean people are now achieving shining successes in all fields of the socialist construction, holding high the banner of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Un.

Syrian air force helicopters at the Taftanaz military base in the northern province of Idlib.
BEIRUT: As international envoy Lakhdar Brahimi readied for Friday's talks aimed at hammering out a deal to try to end Syria's civil war, the regime in Damascus complicated his mission further by denouncing him as "flagrantly biased."
The Syrian Foreign Ministry was responding to remarks by Brahimi Wednesday in which he ruled out a role for President Bashar Assad in a transitional government and effectively called for the Baathist leader to quit.
"In Syria ... what people are saying is that a family ruling for 40 years is a little bit too long," Brahimi told the BBC, referring to Assad. Bashar inherited his post from his father Hafez Assad, who seized power in 1970 and ruled for 30 years.
"President Assad could take the lead in responding to the aspiration of his people rather than resisting it," the veteran Algerian diplomat said, hinting that the Syrian leader should go.
The Foreign Ministry in Damascus said it was very surprised by Brahimi's comments, which it said showed "he is flagrantly biased for those who are conspiring against Syria and its people."
The ministry later said it was nevertheless still willing to work with him to find a political solution to the crisis.
Brahimi has so far had no more success than his predecessor Kofi Annan in his quest to resolve the 21-month-old conflict in which more than 60,000 people have been killed.
"We had expected Brahimi to read and analyze the contents of [Assad's proposed] political initiative which is the only exit to the Syrian crisis," the statement from the ministry said.
Assad, making his first public speech in six months, outlined Sunday a plan to end the crisis but offered no concessions and said he would never talk to foes he branded terrorists and Western puppets.
British Foreign Secretary William Hague warned that violence in Syria might worsen and said the international community must "step up" its response if it does.
So far regional rivalries and divisions among big powers have stymied any concerted approach to the upheaval. But while the chance of success for a political solution to the conflict appears to be faltering, diplomatic efforts are still pushing ahead.
Although the U.S. and Russia back opposing sides of the Syrian conflict, diplomats from both countries, including Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov and U.S. Undersecretary of State William Burns, will meet Brahimi in Geneva Friday.
Ahead of the meeting, Russia repeated its insistence that Assad must not be pushed from power by external forces and that his exit should not be a precondition for negotiations.
"Only the Syrians themselves can agree on a model for the further development of their country," Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said.
Moscow is lobbying for a new peace initiative by Brahimi based loosely on a pact agreed on June 30 by world powers and calling for a transition government. The plan was never deployed because of the fighting and an inability to agree on Assad's role – if any – in the new team.
U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said a heavy load of questions needed to be answered before sides could begin talking of progress toward peace. "Can you actually get the regime to be willing to move forward, to get out of the way, whatever it takes?" Nuland asked Wednesday.
Meeting with Egyptian leaders in Cairo, Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi urged Middle Eastern nations to promote a solution for Syria's conflict without "foreign intervention."
"I call with all my heart for the neighboring countries, the countries of the region to come together to find a solution to the crisis in Syria, a solution that must be Syrian only to avoid any foreign intervention," Salehi told reporters after meeting Egyptian President Mohammad Mursi.
"Egypt is an acceptable partner for all involved," Salehi said with Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohammad Amr Kamel at his side. "We hope from our hearts that countries in the region unite to find a Syrian-Syrian solution and prevent any foreign intervention."
There was no comment as to how Iran and Egypt could reconcile their opposing views on the Syrian conflict to reach such a solution.
Tehran has supplied financial aid and admitted to sending Revolutionary Guard military advisers to Damascus. Mursi, however, has said Assad should step down, siding with those he sees as upholding the revolutionary ideals that brought him and his Muslim Brotherhood to power as part of the Arab Spring.
With peace efforts floundering, neither side has managed to gain a clear military advantage on the ground.
Government shelled rebel-controlled areas and battles raged between government and opposition forces Thursday. Rebels fought for a second day for the strategic Taftanaz air base, which they are trying to capture to extend their grip on the northwestern Idlib province and weaken Assad's control of the skies.
Insurgents assaulted the airport's main buildings and armory using heavy guns, tanks and other weapons and appeared to have overrun half the area of the base, said Rami Abdelrahman, director of the opposition activist group, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
Insurgents have been trying to take the base for months, but have been bolstered by the recent arrival of Islamist fighters including the Al-Qaeda-linked Nusra Front, he added.
There was no immediate government account of the fighting, which could not be confirmed independently.
Opposition forces have seized swathes of territory in northern Syria in recent months, but remain vulnerable to attack by the military's planes and helicopters – hence their strategy of trying to capture air bases.
There was no word on whether the firing of a short-range ballistic missile inside Syria Wednesday, reported by a NATO official, was linked to the fighting at Taftanaz.
NATO could not confirm the type of missile used, but the description fits that of the Scuds that are in the Syrian military's armory, the official added, describing the latest launch and similar ones last week as "reckless."
A NATO official said that since the start of December 2012, the alliance had detected at least 15 launches of unguided, short-range ballistic missiles inside the country.
The Observatory also reported fighting between rebels and troops in the Sayyida Zeinab area of Damascus, while air raids were reported in the capital's Maleiha area and eastern suburbs.
Despite some support from Sunni regional powers including Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar, the rebels remain largely disorganized, fragmented and ill-equipped. Poor discipline, looting and insecurity in some insurgent-held areas have also eroded their support among civilians.
Turf wars between rebel units and with Kurdish groups have also beleaguered the armed opposition. A senior Islamist commander was assassinated Thursday near the border with Turkey, Syrian rebels and political opposition sources said.
Thaer al-Waqqas, northern commander of Farouq Brigades, had been suspected of involvement in the killing four months ago of a member of the Nusra Front.
He was shot dead at a rebel position in the town of Sermin, a few kilometers from Turkey, the sources said.

Darren Fletcher will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to resolve his ulcerative colitis condition, Manchester United have confirmed.
While United have stressed the move is part of a "planned procedure", they admit it is "frustrating" for the 28-year-old Scotland midfielder, who has made just two short substitute appearances since starting the Barclays Premier League win at Reading on December 1.
A United statement read: "Darren Fletcher will be unavailable for the remainder of this season having undergone surgery to resolve his ulcerative colitis condition."

You only come around when you want to play pool in my hot tub
from Childish Gambino (Ft. Chance The Rapper) – I. The Worst Guys Lyrics on Genius
Friends only hang out with him when they want to enjoy his riches. Brings it up several times on the album, including in "3005":
Peep the wordplay with "playing pool" in the hot tub, because the hot tub is never too far from the pool.
This is, of course, yet another sexual innuendo. Along with the reference to his actual infinity pool and hot tub as seen in "Clapping for the Wrong Reasons", playing billiards revolves around a cue stick and billiard balls. Hence, he is talking about a girl who, when she comes over, messes around with him in his hot tub to play "pool": She plays with his cue stick and pool balls. Think of the schoolyard phrase "pocket pool."

Cronos Labs Launches DataHub Pro to organize your life
There are lists. And then there are lists. Choose any platform and you will find tons of to-do and list apps, but most of them, even the popular, are rigid and bound to one format. DataHub by Kronos Labs is a nifty database and form builder whose ad-free Pro version launched recently. It seems to be the only general database app in the marketplace so far. DataHub uses Dropbox instead of SkyDrive because of API support but the popularity of DropBox will ensures that its not an inhibitor. Its high degree of user customization makes it worth trying out atleast once, especially for organised people (like me).
Inspired by OneNote and a bit by Microsoft Access, DataHub allows users to configure and edit their own structured datasets on their phones. We have a very efficient synchronization system with Dropbox as the storage provider. One feature we are especially proud of is our sharing. Using Dropbox folder sharing, two (or more) users can all edit the same dataset at the same time. If they both edit the same record at the same time, the last user to synchronize gets a great UI showing them all of their changes vs. the other users'. This allows them to select which changes to keep.
Download DataHub Pro here.

|It's real! It's real! I saw it with my own two eyes!It's real!
A recently leaked (probably incomplete) roadmap turned down all such rumors, by revealing that Samsung had only one Windows Phone device in the making, it being the successor to the rather unsuccessful Omnia 7. But evidence unearthed, by yours truly, contradicts this road map. If you remember Elbert Perez's recent list of phones running his games, you will notice that sitting rather inconspicuously at the bottom is the Samsung SGH-i937. This happens to be the phone rumored to be the Samsung Galaxy S II remake.The super-slim droid was first announced at MWC this year catching everyone's eye with it's dual core processor and 1GB of RAM. However, the Windows Phone handset would probably stick to the Qualcomm processor rather than Samsung's own Exynos chip and a lesser 512MB of RAM. There is no proof or any hint that this device will make it to the US or not. Also, the price and launch date is nowhere to be found. So for all we know it could just be a discontinued prototype. If so, unfortunate.
This list has been reliable before and if it is to be taken seriously, expect some rocking hardware this fall folks.
Windows Phone 7 surpasses Android and iPhone according to Dilbert
Keep in mind that I'm just a casual user, not a phone tester. I didn't test every feature of every phone, and I didn't measure anything. I simply used the new phone and kept track of my reactions compared to my Android and iPhone experiences.
Leaked Road Map confirms Samsung i8350 Omnia W October launch
Microsoft releases Silverlight for Windows Phone toolkit update for Mango
In addition to UI control components like toggle switches and page transitions, it includes several new features such as HubTile, a tool which let's you "add beautiful, informative, animated tiles to your application".
You can download the update via CodePlex here, or from NuGet here.
The full list of features is as follows:
- LongListSelector has been rebuilt and redesigned to take advantage of the new smooth scrolling and off-thread touch input support in 'Mango'. This is a buttery-smooth control for showing lists, including grouping and jump list support.
- MultiselectList control enables multiple selection for easily working with lists of data, similar to the Mail app's capability.
- LockablePivot adds a special mode to the Pivot control where only the current item is shown (often used with multiple selection).
- ExpanderView is a primitive items control that can be used for expanding and collapsing items (like the threaded views in the Mail app).
- HubTile lets you add beautiful, informative, animated tiles to your application, similar to the new People groups in 'Mango'.
- ContextMenu control has been reworked: performance improvements and visual consistency fixes.
- ListPicker now supports multiple selection.
- RecurringDaysPicker lets your users select a day of the week.
- Date & Time Converters localized to 22 languages. The converters let developers easily display date and time in the user interface in one of the many styles found throughout the phone's UI, from a short date like '7/19' to relative times like 'about a month ago'.
- Page Transitions have improved performance for a more responsive feel.
- PhoneTextBox is an early look at an enhanced text box with action icon support, watermarking, etc.
- All error messages and interface elements have been localized to all of the supported languages, making for a great experience for users around the world
Overall this is excellent news for the application developers community that provides ample time and opportunity to improve the already impressive and rapidly growing selection of apps for Windows Phone 7 before the the launch of the 'Mango' software update.
Microsoft will have a 'Compelling and Dynamic End User Interface' in Windows Phone 8 Apollo
We knew that Apollo, the next update to Windows Phone, would be coming next year and now Microsoft has given the first hints at what to expect from it. In a job posting on the Microsoft Talent Network for a software development engineer on the Consumer Experience team, the company says that they will be "stirring up the out of box experience for Windows Phone 8 and is committed to building/improving a compelling and dynamic high quality look and feel to our end user experience".
Considering how much Metro shook up the standard UI for mobile devices, if Apollo delivers even half of that, it will be pretty amazing. And of course the rumors about Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 having some sort of common features only make it more exciting.

Sorry, but there is simply no science behind this at all. Computer monitors actually *don't* "make your eyes tired" anymore than reading paper books or going out on a bright sunny day. A lot of people believe that they do, but there is no actual science or evidence that they do. Also, a slightly tinted lens to change the white point (apparently the "technology" being used here), is not going to do anything anyway.
The shape of the glasses also isn't going to do any more than any other pair of glasses in terms of eyeball drying from "wind." This is just physically impossible. My office is not windy at all and I generally don't compute outside that much, so the whole "issue" is kind of ridiculous in any case.
Finally, there is no (credible) evidence whatsoever that fluorescents cause tension headaches, and all the studies that claim they do, base their idea on the fact that fluorescents flicker on and off really rapidly. The glasses cannot do anything for that either.
They don't look that bad, and if it seems to help you out I would stick with them, but you have to know that it's an entirely psychological thing that they seem to be doing anything.

Find general information about population health screening.
More about Down's syndrome
Down's syndrome (or 'Down syndrome'), a chromosomal disorder, occurs when, instead of the normal complement of two copies of chromosome 21, there is a whole, or sometimes part of an, additional chromosome 21.
Chromosome abnormalities give rise to specific physical features seen in Down's syndrome. The range of cognitive disabilities as well as other attributes is enormously wide in Down's syndrome. The majority are in the mild range of cognitive ability. Associated defects may include ear and/or eye defects, an increased propensity for infections and heart defects.

CU: Home • A to Z • Campus Map
Startup company Gogy Inc. and the University of Colorado have executed an exclusive licensing agreement that will enable the company to commercialize the Pedago.gy interactive teaching platform developed at CU-Boulder's Leeds School of Business.
Pedago.gy is a Web application that creates a space for educators and students to engage in additional interaction and dialogue beyond the classroom. It provides a means whereby students and instructors can approach a topic in a collaborative fashion, rather than the typical expert-learner model found in most classrooms.
A web-based science instruction program designed by researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder and the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research that provides teachers with cutting-edge digital content is being tested in six school districts, thanks to a new $600,000 grant from the National Science Foundation.
CU System news release
Two University of Colorado professors who have skillfully integrated teaching and research at a high level throughout their careers at CU-Boulder have been designated as 2012 President's Teaching Scholars.
A University of Colorado Boulder symposium Feb. 27-29 will examine how the revolution in digital media is changing global politics, journalism and the way history is preserved.
Journalism and Mass Communication at CU-Boulder is sponsoring "The Content and Context of Digital Culture" symposium, which is free and open to the public. It will be held at various sites across campus and a complete schedule is available at http://www.icjmtsymposium.org/schedule/.
The University of Colorado Boulder welcomed 19 students from Brazil this semester as part of the new Science Without Borders Program and Brazil's initiative to place and fully fund outstanding students abroad to supplement their studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, or STEM.
The University of Colorado Boulder exceeded its own researchers' expectations with its iDREAMS Scalable Game Design Summer Institute, and that success has been rewarded with a new $1.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation. CU-Boulder researchers are tracking how video game design engages students in computational thinking and STEM simulation design.
As a new year and the spring semester begin, the University of Colorado Boulder is welcoming the first class of journalism students entering under a new undergraduate degree structure called "Journalism Plus" that CU officials say will create better journalists, better news content and, over time, a more informed society.
Williams Village North, the University of Colorado Boulder's newest residence hall, has received a LEED platinum rating from the United States Green Building Council. The 500-bed residence hall is the first of its size in the nation to rank platinum -- the highest possible designation.
The PhET Interactive Simulations project at the University of Colorado Boulder today was named as a laureate of The Tech Awards 2011, one of 15 global innovators recognized each year for applying technology to benefit humanity and spark global change.

Ron Mueck
One of the most compelling, and valid, reasons to show contemporary art in an encyclopedic museum like Brooklyn is to remind ourselves that the great themes are always with us. Birth and death, love and loneliness, body and mind—these are among the elemental subjects of art as old as the earliest objects in the Museum's famed Egyptian collection, and as fresh as Ron Mueck's remarkable recent sculpture.
In the rotunda gallery where you now stand, the Museum usually exhibits its collection of sculpture by Auguste Rodin (now displayed in the first-floor entrance pavilion). It is interesting to compare the two artists, both "realists" of a sort, but with very different goals.
Rodin's figures are so convincing that he was accused of casting from nature. Yet he deliberately included the marks of his fingers in clay and his chisel on stone. Thus, he reminds us that the sculptures are the product of a human mind and hand, while simultaneously claiming the role of the heroic artist.
Mueck, no less skillful a mimic of nature, tries to appear as detached and invisible as a photographer. The illusion draws us into an incomplete story as romantic as any Hollywood movie, yet more believable and certainly more palpable. A fresh-born, innocent Baby hangs on a wall in a Christ-like pose; a resigned Man in a Boat floats, adrift and naked, in a vast and waterless sea.
Many of the sculptures bear a striking resemblance to Mueck himself or to his family or friends, and most of them are substantially either larger or smaller than life-size. These facts add new layers of suggestion, mystery, and meaning, as we float, god-like, above a father's corpse, or stand like re-made children next to mama's bed.
Rodin famously built his sculpture out of bits and pieces—a closely studied hand was attached to a torso, perhaps, then a foot, then the head—and frequently exhibited the fragments themselves as finished works. Mueck, too, has made a meticulous study of the body. Yet, his philosophical approach to its depiction is the inverse of Rodin's. "The only way I could do a fragment was to make it a mask," he has said, "because a mask is a whole thing in itself. I couldn't do a decapitated head or half a body.
I have to believe in the object as a whole thing." Perhaps, as much as his technical skill, it is his own belief that ultimately convinces us, as well.

Q. Are electronic calls allowed for hunting predators and other animals?
A. Yes, they are. In general, Wyoming has no regulation prohibiting use of electronic calls for most hunting. The only type of hunting for which electronic calls are not allowed is for migratory game birds. But even with migratory birds, electronic calls are allowed to take light geese during the dates of the Light Goose Conservation Order (Feb. 25-Apr. 7, 2013)

Our Windows PCL drivers support an Interactive help feature
allows you to monitor the status of the printer at all times
over the parallel, USB (if applicable) and network (if applicable)
interfaces. As printer error's occur an icon automatically
appears in the tasktray displaying the printer status.
To use the status monitor capability of your printer driver,
you must also ensure that the Quick Print Setup utility is
running in your task tray (as shown above - the white and
blue icon next to the red icon). If this icon does not appear,
you must first enable the Quick Print Setup utility before
you proceed. If the Quick Print
Setup option is not enabled, click here to learn how to enable it.
The status monitoring capability is disabled by default,
to enable it simply move your mouse over the 'Quick Print
Setup' icon located in the tasktray. You will see either
ON: Printer Status <Brother xxxx Series>
OFF: Printer Status <Brother xxxx Series>
Where 'xxxx' is the model name of your printer.
For example in the screen shot below the printer status option is set to 'OFF'.
To enable the 'Printer Status' click the Quick Print Setup
icon to display the options that you can change. Now select
the 'Printer Status <ON>' option as shown below.
The printer driver is now configured to add an icon to the
printer whenever there is a printer problem.
If you have installed the 'Interactive Help' feature, it
is possible to get detailed help about how to resolve the
problem that you have encountered. To do this, simply double
click the red icon that appears in the tasktray when a problem
occurs. For example, in the event of a printer running out
of paper the following would happen:

A Christmas stocking is big enough for a themed gift but small enough to make filling it quick, easy and fun. Everyone loves the gift of delicious food and your neighborhood Hy-Vee has the perfect items for stuffing stockings. Help Santa out this year by taking your Hy-Vee dietitian's suggestions and stuff their stockings with good taste and good health:
Breakfast in a Stocking: Holiday excitement can disrupt little ones' meal schedules. When the excitement of long-awaited gifts is more interesting than coming to the table for a meal, why not stuff breakfast into their stockings?
Stop by your Hy-Vee HealthMarket and find the following: Horizon shelf-stable organic milk box, Erin Baker's breakfast cookie or KIND nut and fruit bar, Just Fruit Munchies single-serve packs and fresh fruit, such as a Honeycrisp apple or an easy-to-peel clementine. Don't forget a new toothbrush and toothpaste tied together with a bow.
Treat Your Teacher: Go to the head of the class with a stocking stuffed with unique items any teacher is sure to love, such as Stash brand teas paired with Madhava flavored agave nectar for sweetness, Burt's Bees lotion and lip balm, Zum's popular Frankincense and Myrrh-scented soap wrapped in a cellophane gift bag and, of course, a fresh apple.
Love Your Neighbor: Simply tie together a package of beautiful gourmet pasta, Hy-Vee Select classic olive oil and a jar of World Classics Tomato Basil pasta sauce as a way to remember your neighbor at the holiday season. Add an invitation to bring the items over to your house for dinner in the New Year - and this simple, thoughtful gift encourages both good health and friendship.
For the Gourmet Foodie: A quality cheese slicer from your Hy-Vee delicatessen & gourmet cheese department allows you to slice perfectly thin slices of cheese for maximum flavor and extends the number of servings you can slice from a wedge of cheese. Pair with your choice of wine, a package of walnuts in their shells, a nutcracker and fresh fruit such as Holiday seedless grapes and fresh apples along with the following recipe on a card:
Apple, Cheddar & Walnut Toasts Featuring Cabot 50% Reduced-fat Sharp Cheddar CheeseMakes 12 toasts.
A great accompaniment to any festive occasion, this recipe highlights the sharp flavor and excellent melting qualities of Cabot 50% reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese.
All you need:
All you do:
For a brunch or appetizer wine suggestion, pair with Sauvignon Blanc.

Encouragement and Inspiration for the Young Cook:
Right-sized, fun tools inspire young cooks to develop life-long cooking skills. A variety of clever, kid-sized kitchen tools can be found in the general merchandise section of your Hy-Vee store. Items such as their own measuring cups and spoons, Eco Smart prep cups & pinch bowls and a small whisk stimulate kitchen creativity and ownership of their creations. Start by preparing Santa's Favorite Pancakes together and begin a new Christmas morning breakfast tradition:
Santa's Favorite PancakesMakes about 6 pancakes.
Inspire creativity in the kitchen by giving kids right-sized kitchen tools as a stocking-stuffer then welcome them into the kitchen to help prepare these whole-grain pancakes. For a fun Christmas morning twist arrange the pancakes to look like one of Santa's reindeer.
All you need:For the pancakes:
To assemble Santa's Favorite pancakes, you'll also need:

This crisp, professional lab coat has three-quarter length cuffed sleeves. There is a lace detail on the collar, a notched lapel and center back belt. It also has princess seaming and two patch pockets. The fabric is Cherokee's durable. comfortable polyester and cotton blend with soil release. The center back length is 29".
I've been looking for a short lab coat with 3/4 sleeve. This fits the bill on both counts. On the plus side, it's also very feminine with cute lace accents. I normally wear a XS or S in scrubs and wasn't sure which to order in this. I went by the size chart and the S fits me perfectly. I also am pleased with the quality of the fabric: Not too sheer and not heavy either. It should be perfect for my long, busy days at work!
Cute with the lace trim. Sleeves were a little long for me but I'm 5'3" with 5 inch wrists.
Love it !
excellent quality, good price! Liked it very much.
Nice design... like the trimlike the 3/4 sleevesfits me well But...... when you wash it ... it comes out very wrinkled and I don't have an iron at the office.... we wash on site.

Congrats on the release. At first I was worried about going Kindle only, but between the actual Kindle and the Kindle for PC app, I think it might even be better than the real thing (I have v1 in paper anyway). I read, highlight, and make notes on the train to work every day, and I use the kindle for PC app when I need to search for an awesome tip as needed. I wish I could "diff" the v1 and v2 books on the kindle and get right at all of the new stuff, but it is all good review anyway.
Thanks again for the book. Great work.

This is great, thanks!
One question though regarding the Kindle version - why is the Introduction tacked at the end? At first I thought it was missing :)

President's Message
Growth and Opportunity during Challenging Economic Times
Trying to weather difficult times can leave us feeling as if we're walking through a thick fog. The path is unclear. The outcome is uncertain. The future seems beyond our control.
At times like these, we can benefit from a reflection upon our core values. Seeking to define our place in the world, we can often find answers to many of our questions.
We may not be in a position to right every wrong, fight every foe, fix everything that needs fixing, but we can gain strength and hope by centering our thoughts upon what we believe is our true purpose.
As we face the challenges of a bruised economy, it is important for organizations to reaffirm their purpose and mission, to reassess priorities and come to a greater understanding of what it will take to be successful in the future.
Pennsylvania College of Technology has taken those steps in recent months and has established a new system of initiative-based planning that relies on a cycle of assessment, planning, and resource allocation to create our blueprint for the future.
As individuals and as organizations, it is important that we live within our means. It also is important that we keep moving forward. Hard times can lead to new opportunities; we must allocated our resources in ways that inspire vision and encourage persistence in order to succeed in a changing world.
When the nation faced its Great Depression, the founders of our institution rose to the challenge and developed a nationally recognized program that partnered government, education and industry to solve training and workforce needs.
Ironically, even when unemployment was at its highest in the 1930s, there was a shortage of skilled workers. Those who were willing to learn and had access to education and training not only survived the tough times, they thrived. They were prepared for a new workforce, a new economy.
We face similar circumstances in the workforce today. There is a great need for men and women who know how to apply advanced and emerging technologies in a wide variety of fields, from the front lines and the assembly lines to the management teams and the executive offices. The ability to use technology and resources effectively truly is the keystone of career success in the 21st century.
As Pennsylvania's premier technical college, Penn College is proud of its purpose and its opportunity to impact the future. Our most recent graduate surveys indicate that more than 90 percent of graduates continue to find employment or continue their education within a year of graduation. Our recent efforts to support workforce development in industries such as natural gas (Marcellus shale) and weatherization have gained national attention. We are positioned to support economic growth and to provide opportunities for men and women to gain the education and skills they need to succeed – even in the most trying economic times.
This is a defining moment in our history. With insightful planning and purpose, we can lead the way and inspire hope for the future.

Cingular Announces 3G + HSDPA Launch Plans
Article Comments 8
Nov 30, 2004, 4:13 PM by (staff)
Cingular today revealed its plans to begin broad-scale deployment of 3G, using UMTS (WCDMA) with HSDPA technology. The network will offer average data speeds between 400-700 kbps, peaking at several megabits per second. Deployment will begin in early 2005, with 3G services available in most major markets by the end of 2006. Nokia, Motorola and LG have committed to providing competitive UMTS devices for the new network in the fourth quarter of 2005. Network infrastructure will be provided by Ericsson, Lucent, and Siemens. The service will enable advanced data applications such as streaming video, and will support simultaneous voice and data sessions. HSDPA technology will allow the network to run several times faster than standard UMTS networks common in Europe and Asia. Cingular will also continue to operate the UMTS networks launched by AT&T Wireless earlier this year in six cities.
|And so it begins.
|"Further improvements will steadily continue"...

Gonna play around with stock bios on bfg, if I cant
get decent oc from it, I'll try the ultra bios you recommended
but for now gonna see what I can do with stock bios.
BTW how did the hose work for you?
I like the sheer black :-)
Although I believe temperature is a the main ingredient for triggering the throttling function, I think it is more complex than just a temp threshold ? It is more likely to be at least a combination of both, temps, and a designed in set of conditions measuring the GPU's/Memory's ability to process data for given speeds of operation; a power throughput level if you like ?? A safety condition set either by Nvidia or the designers of the cards. And if so, then throttling can happen even when temps appear to be reasonable, simply because the bios/driver deems it not safe for the GPU/Memory to process at the level being asked while running at whatever speeds and/or temps prevail at the time ?
However I think it not unreasonable to assume that although throttling being a safety function could occur on all cards at any time, it is likely to happen less often at reduced speeds and/or when temps are kept down ! So, if throttling occurs, then just either reduce, GPU and/or Memory speed, or, temps, and it will stop triggering ? But also remember to reboot, to reset the throttling function !
And, barring info being available direct from the designers of the card, only experience over time will support or refute this belief ?
Apart from the above, your only other recourse with throttling is to set it same as 3D, so that if triggered it wont change GPU speed ! However most important you also set throttling GPU volts to be same as 3D GPU volts !!! Otherwise GPU speed may drop back just because not enough volts to sustain required speed ?
haven't purchased my hose yet !

Almost 10,000 opposition protestors have set up camp in Bangkok airport, blocking all flights and confining thousands of tourists to the world's biggest squat.
The crisis in Bangkok is worsening. For two years conflict has been heightening between supporters and opponents of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, exiled since 2006. The People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) demands the incarceration of the former head of government and his deputies, who returned to power in December 2007, and of which one is current Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat. So far, one person has been killed in the recent conflict.
The director of Suvarnabhumi International Airport estimates 50 million baht (around €1.5m) of losses. The cancellation of 700 flights will have harsh effects on an economy based on tourism, and one which is already flailing. Our Observers give their account of events.
Posted on YouTube by yokam1, 26 November.
PAD activists storm Bangkok's international airport.
Sirima is a PAD activist. She's been involved in the protests since they began several months ago. She's currently demonstrating at the airport.
We have no choice; attacking the airport is the only way to put pressure on. For us, it symbolises what they've built. The airport is corrupt. It must go back to the Thai people, that's why we've seized it. The only flight we let go was for the Haj Muslim pilgrimage, because we sympathise with them for religious reasons.
The unionists at the airport support us and the tourists too. Some are worried about getting their home, but most are joining in with us. We eat together; we share our food with them. Those from Europe, especially France, are used to protests, so they're not phased by it."
Jean-Yves Fargeat is an IT programmer who lives in Bangkok.
If the PAD manages to get the parliament dissolved, I think they'll go. They don't want to stay a week, like they did outside the government house. The airport is too important for the country. And in any case their support is diminishing. Taxi drivers for example are openly opposed to the blockade. The airport is where they make most money. The PAD hasn't succeeded in getting the population to rise up with them.
There has been some violence. Particularly when the PAD left their encampments in the town centre. The pro-government supporters took the chance to set off artisanal bombs. They seem to have been individual acts. But it's true that it's the most radical that carry on demonstrating, and there are a lot of firearms here. It shouldn't turn into gang warfare.
It's not all chaos. It's like the attacks in the suburbs: from abroad, you only have access to some footage. But life goes on as normal here. I went to work this morning, near the government house, without any problems."
Sunny is an IT programmer. He has been living in Bangkok for 20 years. He posted these photos of the airport on his blog.
I life in Bangkok since 2005 and I have to confess that I would not know that there was a putsch or that people demonstrate and blockade the airport if I would not read the internet news. What I want to tell is that it is quiet in Bangkok. You don´t see more police or even military and all is normal. Only some places we can call hot spots. I hope it will stay this way.

He's given to a host of other institutions too, including medical institutions in support of Alzheimer's research in honor of his late wife, Cynthia Woods Mitchell, who died of the disease.
University of Houston cornerback D.J.
