|Rapid charger
User: Garlee H, May 6, 2012
|Saves wear and tear on my usb port by using the magnetic rapid charger., Crackberry had on sale for 40 of and i bought it and have not looked back since. My only concern would be does faster charging at higher voltages affect the battery health and longetivity?

Laughter Is the Best Medicine
Funniness and Physiology
Norman Cousins, in his book Anatomy of an Illness, is considered a pioneer in the study of not just how laughter can heal a depressed mood but a depressed immune system as well. When diagnosed with an illness that gave him grave odds of survival, he did some research of his own. After learning how stress can play a negative role in a person's health, leading to diseases like cancer and heart disease, he figured the reverse must also be true.
Cousins figured the best anti-stressor was not only happiness, but an abundance of laughter. He proceeded to surround himself with as much humor as he could find, reading funny stories, books, and watching old Marx Brothers movies.
He found that when he laughed a great deal two hours before bedtime, he no longer needed painkillers. "I made the joyous discovery that ten minutes of genuine belly laughter had an anesthetic effect and would give me at least two hours of pain-free sleep," he comments. Cousins eventually beat 550 to 1 odds, lived another 20 years, and credits laughter as the prescription that literally gave him back his life.
"Laughter may or may not activate the endorphins or enhance respiration, as some medical researchers contend. What seems clear, however, is that laughter is an antidote to apprehension and panic… It creates a mood in which other positive emotions can be put to work too," Cousins says.
Other researchers have come to similar conclusions. In his article "Laugh If This Is a Joke," published in the Journal of the AMA, Swedish researcher Lars Ljungdahl concluded: "A humor therapy program can increase the quality of life for patients with chronic problems and laughter has an immediate symptom-relieving effect for these patients, an effect that is potentiated when laughter is induced regularly over a period of time."
Research professor Lee Bark and endocrinologist Stanley Tan of California's Loma Linda University Medical Center are two of medical science's leaders when it comes to figuring out how laughter can play a positive role on a person's physiology.
In a study that involved having subjects watch a solid hour of funny videos, they took blood samples at 10-minute intervals before, during, and after the subjects laughed. Their findings showed that humor and exercise trigger similar physiological responses in the form of good hormones like endorphins with the added benefit of decreased levels of stress hormones.
"There really is something to this idea that one's frame of mind has an impact on the body's health system," says Dr. Paul McGee, a New Jersey psychologist who for 20 years has studied how laughter affects health. McGee—who says that if you can manage your mood, you can have better health—summarizes laughter's health benefits in the following ways:
- Stress Hormones are Reduced: Four major hormones associated with stress are known to become reduced as a result of laughing more: dopac, cortisol, epinephrine, and the growth hormone.
- Enhancement of the Immune System: Clinical studies have proven that laughter strengthens the immune system.
- Cardiac Exercise and Muscle Relaxation: Laughter causes the muscles in the belly to relax, giving the belly an internal jog. Laughter also provides great cardiac conditioning and is especially good for those unable to exercise.
- Reduction of Pain: Laughing and a good sense of humor help people in pain to at least temporarily forget about their aches and pains.
- Respiratory Benefits: Laughing helps the lungs release more air which leads to a cleansing effect, similar to that of deep breathing. This is especially beneficial to patients with emphysema and other respiratory ailments.
"It's already been suggested that if you make people laugh, they don't get as anxious, deal better with pain, and do better in the hospital," says cancer researcher Dr. Margaret Stuber, professor at the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute. "In the future, watching humorous videos could become a standard component during some medical procedures."

Metairie, La. - Every story is different but everyone is here for the same reason.
The Walk to Defeat ALS brought hundreds out to Zephyr Field Saturday morning, in spite of the heavy rain and a few hitches.
"With the power outage and no electricity and tons of rain, people still came out," says ALS Association Event Coordinator Chelsea Moreau. "We still feel like we had about 1,200 people like we did last year and they walked through the rain and despite everything, the ALS community still comes together."
ALS is better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease.
It leads to progressive weakness and eventually death and a person with ALS typically lives only two to five years after diagnosis.
Penny Abreo of Houma has been living with the disease for nearly six years.
"It affects everybody different, the progress is different," says her husband, Aaron Abreo. "It means a lot to see everybody come together and help each other out, you know?"
There is no cure for ALS and the one FDA approved medicine only slows progression by a few weeks or months.
The walk supports the 142 patients living with ALS in Louisiana and Mississippi, 60 of them in the New Orleans area.
Money raised at the walk helps purchase equipment for ALS patients and provides support for caretakers.
"They loan equipment to ALS patients and you don't have to give it back at a certain time," says Jennifer Jeansonne, whose brother-in-law has the disease. "It's yours until you don't need it anymore. They have done a lot for Michael and the other ALS patients, or pALS as they call them."
The money also funds research, to find a cause for ALS and new ways to treat it.
Though every story here is different, everyone who walks wants the same thing.
"Let's find a cure," says Penny Abreo.
Daniele Watts said she was detained by police on Thursday because they thought she was a prostitute.

NBA rookie and number two overall pick, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, left the Charlotte Bobcats, Houston Rockets game early in the fourth quarter after colliding with teammate, Jeff Taylor, attempting to get the rebound.
According to TSN, Kidd-Gilchrist left the court on a stretcher, wearing a neck brace and was taken to a local Houston hospital for further x-rays.
Kidd-Gilchrist went up to defend Rockets' Tony Douglas' fast break lay-up shot, however Jeff Taylor's hip hit the back Kidd-Gilchrist's head as he came tumbling down.
Fellow Bobcat, Jeff Taylor, scared and shocked responded to the incident saying,
"I didn't see anything, it happened so fast," Taylor said.
The rookie forward stayed, laying on the ground unconsciousness and motionless for a few minutes. Both team's athletic trainers came to check on him as the Bobcats' bench surrounded him.
Anytime a player comes down no matter the circumstances, it always has to taken seriously and as an extremely serious injury. We wish him the best and will provided an update as we hear more on his status.

SE Producers Adjusting To 'Post-555 Era'
Most everyone in Southeast cotton production agrees that there will likely never be another single cotton variety that will cover as much of the acreage as DP 555 BG/RR.
Although the transition period is still in its early stages, researchers can point out some differences that will require management adjustments from producers.
Jared Whitaker, University of Georgia Extension cotton agronomist, says, as far as the shift goes, the crop is faring well thus far.
Vigorous Emergence
Whitaker says one change is that obtaining a good cotton stand will likely be easier with the variety transition.
"Most of the new varieties will likely be easier to get out of the ground than DP 555," he says.
However, Whitaker notes, Georgia farmers have scaled back on the number of seed they plant because of cost.
"We have been able to decrease the number of seed planted per acre and still maintain good yields," he says. "This may have been related to the growth pattern of DP 555 BG/RR and its ability to compensate for thin plant stands. This is not to say that new varieties can't be planted at these seeding rates, but when less than perfect stands occur, we haven't had enough experience with individual varieties to say that yields will remain where we want them."
New Varieties More Typical
"DP 555 was an aggressive, full-season variety that would grow vigorously, but if the weather turned dry, it could sit in a dry spell and not cut out," says Guy Collins, University of Georgia Extension agronomist. "These newer ones tend to follow a more typical growth model and do not seem to have the capacity to grow and continue to set fruit after a dry spell.
"We traditionally have to apply PGRs before flowering occurs to control the vigorous growth of DP 555 BG/RR, and these early applications could have a negative impact on less vigorous varieties," Whitaker says.
The reason for this is that with a more determinate growth pattern, some varieties may not reach their full potential if PGR applications stunt growth and reduce the number of sites where the variety sets fruit, especially in dryland situations.
"But," he says, "we do have some varieties that have been growing very quickly, and an early season PGR application may be necessary.
"Producers should be cautious and not overly aggressive," Whitaker adds. "As the bloom period progresses, these varieties may not need an additional application of PGRs."
Long Way To Go
Whitaker says most producers are pleased with the new varieties.
"I think that the yield potential of these new varieties is as good or better than DP 555 BG/RR, but we'll need to see a little more of them in a more typical Georgia growing season to really see which ones can fit our area."

- What I Love About My Small Home:
- The layout and multiple windows with double exposures give light and a feeling of space. The picture moldings and high ceilings give the place character.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space
- I work from home, and need to incorporate an office into my living space. I use an armoire as my desk, and it folds away when I am not using it. It was important to me to have a dining area, so the living room incorporates that as well. The kitchen did not come with much storage, so I had to get creative.
- If I am the Grand Prize winner of Small Cool, the item(s) or project(s) from my home design wishlist that I'd like to spend my winnings on are:
- I would love to create built-ins for the bedroom. I imagine one entire wall, and the corner of the adjoining wall, as one long low unit comprised of shelving and drawers. Bye-bye IKEA dresser!

This definitely feels bigger than the dimensions of the space. Bravo on your use of storage, the lighting helps, and also that you didn't make anything feel too cluttered. I like the homeyness of the space too!
Awesome job!
Great light and a lovely warm cosy feel. I could easily live here. The only minor downside is the dated living room sofa and chair but the rest is great
Your wall color is gorgeous. And your kitchen is really beautiful.
Looks very comfortable and welcoming.
I love everything about your home. Great job!
This is sooooo cozy, with comfy seating and all those framed pictures. I want my apt. to look so inviting! You're an inspiration: I must hang more art on my walls.
Very nice merging of disparate furnishings. Do I see family heirlooms or antique finds of yours? It "ought" to look cluttered but somehow you've avoided that - masterful.
Looks like you have some kind of hutch in the foyer but the space looks big enough for an office.
Love your idea for a continuous wall of built-ins for the BR - could have drawers, cover the radiator, bookshelves, even a desk surface there.
Love Dara's place...not only the economical use of space, but the feeling of grace, of beauty wherever your eye alights...a hard thing to accomplish in a small space!
Did you consider locating your dining area in the foyer? It looks like there'd be enough space if those storage pieces came out and perhaps you used a bench along the long wall, so that the table could hug the wall when you didn't need all of the seating.
This is lovely and warm. I don't see any downside either and it feels much larger than it actually is. I used to live in a similar space only I didn't have wood floors and moldings which helps to give your place character. Just lovely and well done.
Very homey. There's a sense of permanence that really works. You must be very comfortable here.
Thanks all! Yes, I do have some heirlooms, Hoosiermama, chief among them the jardiniere in the dining area, which was a wedding gift for my grandparents. I had planned to use the foyer for office or dining, but chose not to for two reasons. It has no direct windows, so less air and light, and the only spot to put a desk or table is directly in line with the entrance to the room, so it would block your flow into the space.
It seems...big! Making a small space cozy is not so hard but making it seem spacious is a feat.

Redskins left tackle Trent Williams said he made a mistake last season, one he doesn't want to repeat. It's also one that if he does repeat, it'll cost him an entire year.
Williams, in his first public comments since his four-game suspension for multiple positive drug tests, said he hasn't made any lifestyle changes.
"Obviously we're dealing with the [NFL's] program and they take a certain amount of measures to make sure it doesn't occur again," Williams said at the Leukemia Golf Classic (hosted by Redskins linebacker Brian Orakpo) at Trump National in Sterling, Va. "That's all behind me, store it in the past and just ready to get this playoffs."
Williams tested positive multiple times to earn that four-game suspension.
"It was tough having to watch the game from the couch," he said. "It's something I've never been a part of and something I never thought I'd be doing. But that's the type of stuff you do when you make decisions like that….I made a mistake and you just got to deal with it."
Williams said he feels good about the direction he's going. And he's looking forward to playing football again.
"It's all about progression man," he said. "If I came out the same as I was last year that means I'm getting worse. Step it up and be more of a leader. Obviously don't make some of the mistakes I made in the past and be a better player and lead by example also.
"I can't wait man. We got a new quarterback, we got a whole new team. It's going to be fun."

|Grilled Kimcheese Sandwich.

Introducing: The Grilled Kimcheese
18 comments:
Love this! Thanks for the funny, fusion read :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Glad you liked it, Rashda!Delete
Yes! I am a purist, except not really, because it's one place where things can go off-the-rails-screaming-awful wrong in a New York minute, purism. And yet that is where I live. There are things that are just...things...and I bristle especially when people (who have not gotten my permission)go out and change something with disdain for an original. I'm talking the vanilla wafers in banana pudding, or the canned salmon salmon cakes, or the cheap whitebread burger bun on a barbecue sandwich, which requires by the way slaw. I allow changes and adaptations and inspiration, but not if the attitude is that the homey-way was broke. Good thing I am easily distracted or else I would be banned from public eateries. I have never had Texas chili/chile?, or I'll be, chicken fried steak. Good thing this is my work.ReplyDeleteReplies
I'd be happy to make chili (I use "chili" for the dish and "chile" for the pepper) or CFS for you anytime, Nancie. But you're right that purism is a bugaboo. I just can't let go of it for a couple of things!Delete
Fusion can be confusing, right? For me, it brings up so many nonsensical dishes that people were just crazy for about a decade ago...but the idea of bringing together two different culinary cultures to make something new (or simply use what you have on hand in the country you're in) isn't really that strange, I've learned...I'm just happy that I can now find habanero peppers in Paris (which of course, they call simply piment). Jalapeños? Not a chance.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, Ellise -- Indeed, I remember a comic from years ago putting on a bad Chinese accent and saying, "CON-fusion." I can't remember the context, just the punchline. Typical.Delete
I love that you suggested putting miso in the gravy. Now even I haven't thought of that and I put miso in many things. Am going to try the grilled kimcheese as soon as we get some bread in the house (mostly rice and noodles in our pantry). ArigatoReplyDeleteReplies
For the chicken-fried cauliflower I'm testing -- that's true! I love miso so much -- possibly even more than kimchi, it's true. Thanks, Yukari!Delete
"Foodoisie" -- love it! I want that on a T-shirt. But first I want to have this sandwich -- I haven't been able to think of anything else since I first saw your post this morning!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks, Cheryl -- I had a blast with this one!Delete
I have yet to try kimchee and dairy mixed together, but you may have converted me here.ReplyDelete
And thanks for the reminder about chicken fried steak. My favorite memory of it comes from a diner near Boise, ID that was named "the best truck stop in America"... which is a dubious title, isn't it?Replies
Ah, yes -- I thought I might get pinged on the dairy combo, Grace! I swear to God it works... That's hilarious about the Boise truck stop. Anyplace that refers to itself as world's best, or world famous, of course, usually is anything but.Delete
Very original! This is a combination that never would have occurred to me -- I'm definitely going to have to investigate all these alternative uses of kimchee!ReplyDeleteReplies
Let me know how it goes, Felicia!Delete
Oyster is my pizza, too. Must track down a reputable suburban kimchi source before sampling delish kimchee recipes. Looking forward to mac and kimcheese.ReplyDeleteReplies
Lucy, there's a decent brand that I see at most Whole Food Markets. I mean, it's not nearly as good as what you can make at home, or can buy at great Asian superstores, but it will do!Delete
Thanks for the great post Joe. I now have to get out my copy of 'Serve Yourself' and make your cabbage and pear kimchi. I have to be honest - until Emma's Kimchi Bulgogi Nachos post this month, I had no idea what kimch was! But now I am intrigued...so thanks for the inspiration. Your sandwich sounds FABULOUS...once I understand a little more about kimchi, this sandwich will be next on the list.ReplyDeleteReplies
You must try kimchi, Lisa. Hope you enjoy it -- let me know if you make my version...Delete

CLAYTON, N.J. — Two teenage brothers were charged Tuesday with murdering a 12-year-old girl who had been missing since the weekend, prompting a frantic search by her small hometown until her body was found stuffed into a home recycling bin.
The boys' mother played a part in cracking the case involving Autumn Pasquale, Gloucester County prosecutor Sean Dalton said at a news conference. She came forward with information about a posting on a son's Facebook account, leading police to the boys, Dalton said.

Gwinnett County police say a 17-year-old was struck and killed by a vehicle early Wednesday morning while trying to cross Lawrenceville Highway.
Police say Dakota Waters was crossing the highway between Hamilton Road and James Road at around 7:30 a.m. They say Waters was standing in a center turn lane outside a crosswalk when Waters was hit by a black 2007 Land Rover as it was attempting to make a left turn onto James Road.
They say the driver, 49-year-old Sharon Mitchell-Golden, was unable to stop her vehicle before striking Waters.
Waters was transported to Gwinnett Medical Center, and later died of his injuries.
Golden has been charged with a turn lane violation and second degree vehicular homicide.

Canute). Though that is not how you pronounce it here nor in Sweden, I presume it's an English version of the name. It's a very ancient name, Cnut/Canute/Knud the Great was a king of Denmark, Norway and England and son of the great King Harald Bluetooth.

14 July 14 October 2007 Photographs by Paul Floyd Blake
Sport for Sport's Sake, an exhibition of work by Northern based photographer Paul Floyd Blake, will be shown at Manchester Art Gallery this summer. It features a new series of striking portraits showing ordinary people involved in a variety of sports – from football to fell-running – on public display together for the first time.
Blake's work depicts sports men and women against the backdrop of their chosen field. Over a dozen images on display include group photographs such as a team of Kurdish refugee footballers, and individuals and couples such as show jumpers, lacrosse and tennis players. The images highlight the everyday realities of sport for amateur enthusiasts. Their dedication and commitment is subtly conveyed by the early mornings, the weather and the determination in their faces.
In the run up to the 2012 Olympics, this exhibition is a timely exploration of the social and cultural complexities of sport. Blake's photographs investigate the importance of sporting communities, examining the ways in which they define the identities of their members. They also illustrate the need of individuals to belong to a structured world with clear rules, regulations and modes of dress. His work asks us to consider the human need to join groups and to participate in the seemingly trivial activity of play.
Blake started his professional career in photography just over 5 years ago. Following many years working as a lorry driver, he studied photography at college in Halifax, before completing his degree in Bradford as a mature student. One of his first professional roles was as a photographic assistant for the cultural programme of the Commonwealth Games in Manchester in 2002. This job allowed him to develop his interest in sports photography, which in turn led to the Sport for Sport's Sake series. He is also currently working in partnership with Sportsaid to document the progress of some of the country's up-and-coming young athletes as they train for the 2012 Olympics.
Blake's work has previously been exhibited in the international touring exhibition The Human Game curated by Francesco Bonami at the Fondazione Pitti, Florence in 2006 and in the Schweppes Photographic Portrait Prize at the National Portrait Gallery in 2004 and 2005.
Speaking about the exhibition, Councillor Mike Kane, Executive Member for Arts and Leisure, said:
"Manchester strives to promote both sport and art as accessible and enjoyable pursuits for everyone, and this exhibition is a great example of this. It is also a superb illustration of the ongoing legacy of the successful Commonwealth Games in Manchester and how they have made a difference to the lives of many individuals in the city and beyond. It is wonderful to see how the Games in 2002 have inspired Paul Floyd Blake to pursue his interest in sports photography, to the extent that he is now exhibiting his work in a solo exhibition at Manchester Art Gallery for the first time."

Kentucky may be a man short as it travels to Auburn on Saturday.
Freshman center Willie Cauley-Stein had what UK officials describe as "a minor surgical procedure" to his left knee on Thursday to help alleviate a previously-existing injury that had begun to affect him again in recent games and practice sessions. He played only 15 minutes, his third-lowest total of the season, in Tuesday's 75-65 win over Tennessee.
"He won't practice (Friday)," UK coach John Calipari said. "But he's walking around, so we'll see."
Typical recovery time for a scoped knee is three to four weeks, but UK says Cauley-Stein's status is undetermined at this time.
"We could have been, 'You're fine. Put the knee sleeve on and go. Deal with it,' but that's not how we operate here," Calipari said. "If I err, I'm going to err on the side of the kid. Let's just be safe."
The 7-footer from Kansas is averaging 7.6 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. He is also second on the team with 31 blocked shots. He recently moved into the starting lineup alongside fellow freshman Nerlens Noel in what Calipari calls his "big team" with freshman Alex Poythress at the small forward spot.
Calipari also said Friday that junior swingman Jon Hood is set to return to the court for the Wildcats (11-5, 2-1 SEC) after missing the last three weeks with a respiratory illness. He may lean on junior guard Jarrod Polson for more minutes against a smaller Auburn (8-8, 2-1 SEC) squad.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The state Legislature's finance panel voted 10-6 Wednesday to scale back some -- but not all -- of its expanded options to recover Medicaid costs spent by the elderly.
The federal government requires states to charge back Medicaid expenses from people's estates after their spouses die.
Republicans used the state budget process to take that concept further with a series of complex proposals. One would allow the state to recover money that's put into trusts. Another would seize assets accumulated up to 5 years before a person applies for a Medicaid program like FamilyCare.
Republican finance co-chair John Nygren and Senate Republican Glenn Grothman said there's nothing wrong with expecting people to pay for their medical care if they can do so. Grothman said it appalls people when they see others transferring a lot of their assets and then going on Medicaid.
Critics said the proposed changes would leave nothing for most seniors to pass on to their children.
Assembly Democrat Jon Richards tried but failed to block the state from adopting the changes passed in the budget.
Two Republicans on the finance panel -- senators Mary Lazich and Sheila Harsdorf -- joined all four Democrats in voting against the changes.

this is so cool! Excited to do more!
This is so cool! Cant wait to do more!
Sweeet this is so exciting! I cant wait for next ones!
Exercise enthusiasts run a whole gamut of folks: men, women, young, old, bodybuilder types, slender, athletic, out of shape, etc., and they all want to hit the machines. "In due time" will be my response. It is important that you cultivate your "body awareness" before you utilize your muscles with the multitude of metal machines at your disposal.
What is "body awareness"? Simply put: Body Awareness is the state of being in control and knowledgeable of your exercising muscles. To be bodily aware is to understand your own body mechanics and its natural ranges of motions. This is most effectively achieved through proper technique using your own body weight or free-weights.
To note: This is not a slam-piece on machines. Machine based exercises are excellent albeit readily interchangeable with free-weights for the body. But if you are not 100% aware of what your body is doing during a squat; then you wouldn't want to be put on the seated leg press machine, because you won't know if your knees are supposed to feel the way they do while you're doing the motion.
Machines will not compromise with you on how you get from start to finish. It doesn't notice that your shoulders turn in the socket to get the chest press to the end position. It doesn't notice that your back arcs in the seated leg press machine. It certainly doesn't care, but we should. The steps to gain your body awareness:
1. When you train with an instructor of merit, you do an exercise. You do the exercise, and ideally you should be instructed what muscles the exercise is working.
2. You are then ideally instructed to what you are doing wrong.
3. If you're doing anything wrong, then you be instructed in what you should do (or don't do) to fix it.
Once you've completed these steps: You have awareness of the exercise AND your body.
If you were properly taught a chest exercise and you go on the chest machine you will then know if you're working the chest, or overworking another muscle in accessory to the chest. You will be aware of bad form, and only then the machine is good for you. It is not until you become aware of your body that you should acclimate yourself to a limited amount of the machinery in your local gym.
This was written a few years ago, but updated with some studies and helpful links. I hope you enjoy!
My newest article from examiner.com
There's really no mystery to whether or not a woman who is pregnant should consider exercise. Research shows conclusive evidence that exercising during all phases of pregnancy is beneficial to the mother's and baby's health. A word of caution: It is always a good idea for you to consult a physician before you should begin any exercise program, pregnant or not. With only a few minor adjustments mom's preexisting exercise program can be continued safely.
1. You should always be mindful of your inner body temperature as a large increase in body temperature is potentially harmful to the fetus in the first trimester. There are a lot of great thermometer accessories available to allow you to constantly monitor your internal body temperature during your workout. Adequate hydration is a great thermal regulator as well, so drink those fluids!
2. At the beginning of the second trimester the pregnant exerciser should avoid lying prone or supine due to the fact that as the baby begins to grow pressure will be placed on major veins returning to the mother's heart when lying flat on her back. This undue strain can drop blood pressure and lead to serious fetal complications.
3. Though stretching is a great idea for mothers-to-be to perform, it is important to know that over stretching can lead to joint damage, due to the increased production of the {relaxin and oxytocine} hormones. These cause joints to be extra pliable, so be mindful.
With only the exception of high impact aerobic exercise, a pregnant woman may enjoy most of the other activities associated with exercise programs. If she found herself exercising using free weights, she might find herself continuing with training with careful attention to good body mechanics and focus on strengthening her pelvic floor muscles. If she decides she wants to continue a cardiovascular training program she may do so but being careful to lower her intensity level. She should not be training to perform long-distance races, but working within the confines of her pre-existing cardiovascular training program would be ample exercise to promote a stronger cardiovascular system. As earlier stated, stretching is a fine activity for the pregnant woman to undergo. Some professionals have developed yoga programs for the expectant mother in order to facilitate strengthening of the pelvic floor and abdominal wall. There are many resources for the expectant mother to peruse in order to best tailor a specific workout program to suit her needs.
One final word of warning: there are a few very important warning signs for the mother to be to look for during an exercise program. These being:
Vaginal bleeding
Cervical discharge
Shortness of breath upon cessation of exercise
Swollen/ painful calves, (a sign of a blood clot)
Very limited fetal movements, (though when the mother is most active the fetus is less active, it is important to know the difference between a less active fetus and a distressed fetus.)
All in all exercising during pregnancy is a great way for the mother to be to decrease her stress levels, increase healthy heart function, and strengthen her body to begin preparation for childbirth.
None of you owe me any more of your time. I just wanted to let you know I am a contributor for examiner.com.
In the past 6 months I was laid off from Bally Total Fitness after the LA Fitness acquisition; then re-hired through LA Fitness. I quit LA fitness because it was even MORE "sell, sell, sell" than I thought Bally Total Fitness could ever be.
I now work as a personal trainer in-home and part time as a Therapy Aide at a Philadelphia outpatient hospital.
Since there are literally NO prestigious gyms in the Delaware County, I need alternative ways to express my desire to help in the fitness industry. Hence: my desire to write professionally.
One final note: I am going to be a father in 3 months! All extra income at this point is most welcome. All I ask is you check me out at examiner.com
It's free to you, and the more volume I receive and subscribers I get equals more income for me.
I thank you all for reading up until now, and I will generate new content regularly plus update some of my personal favorite blogs from tumblr.

Hey there,
To answer your first question: Warming up is essentially your preparation to successfully complete a task. To warm up properly:
1. Localize the muscles to be worked.
2. Do movements at a light (20-30% intensity) until you feel your muscles fill with blood, or at the very least until movements become easier and more fluid. These movements can include: walking hip circles, ankle circles, trunk rotations, etc.
3. Increase intensity slowly for the first 5-10 minutes after warming up.
To answer your second question, I am not really a fan of fasted cardio. Unless you have a sensitive stomach and you become nauseated during runs I would suggest eating up to 90 minutes pre run. Your performance will improve. Thanks for the questions!
I was on my way to the gym today, and I saw 6 people running outside, (in PA, it's about 20 degrees outside). They all donned sweat pants, shirts, hats, gloves, and some had scarfs. Despite all this winter gear, the 6 of them had one area that was NOT covered which should have been: their mouths and noses.
Of course, they would suffocate due to lack of circulating air. But obviously their health isn't of much concern.
Advocates of running outdoors in the winter always say: "It's a mental workout more than it is a physical one", and to that I say: "Try running in 100 degree weather, THAT is way more of a mental feat than running in the cold, plus I don't risk the chances of pneumonia. And yes I am aware that there are dehydration risks associated with hot climate running, so of course it's not a recommended long term program. I used it merely to illustrate my point.
Another problem with winter running is the myth that you don't worry about body regulating heat (over-heating) in a winter run. This.Is.Not.The.Case. The reality is that sweating is an EXTERNAL means of regulating the body temperature. However, since the winter runner has thoughtfully wrapped themselves in five layers of clothing, the reality is that overheating is actually more likely than not. Sweat works by evaporating off the skin once the heat becomes too great, this is what cools the body off. However the clothing prevents this evaporation from happening. (And I'm not going to go into the obvious application of using "thermal" clothing.)
Here's the most sinister problem with winter running, which I had alluded to earlier in the post: Cold air inhalation in the warm, moist recesses of your lungs.
Science says that hot air+cold air= moisture. This is true, especially in your lungs.The implications? We have to consider that during bouts of extreme stress, the immune system is compromised to regulate normal body functions (core temperature), now you've exacerbated the issue with added moisture and constriction of alveolar sacs in the lungs. This is a recipe for pneumonia if I've ever heard of one.
But if we can talk muscular issues: now running under normal circumstances usually require a warm-up of some sort. Now my readers know I'm not a fan of stretching pre-runs, but more of a dynamic sort of warm-up. Why do we warm up? To promote blood flood and acclimate the muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments for the exercise ahead. However, being LITERALLY cold will cause your "warm up" to take longer than normal, hence increasing the likelihood of injury on a muscular level.
One final caution. It's winter, it's icy. It's more than likely going to be slippery, and more than likely darker than normal in the afternoon. IT'S JUST NOT SAFE! Get a gym membership, buy a treadmill. There are better and safer ways to go running outside.
I am welcoming feedback.
Do you run outside? Would you consider my warnings unnecessary?

Spectranet & Netmagic Enter into a Strategic Partnership
Spectranet, India's fastest growing integrated communication services provider and Netmagic Solutions, India's largest pure-play Managed IT Hosting Services Provider, today announced a strategic partnership to collaborate across multiple business avenues.
As part of this partnership Spectranet will set up India's first multi-location commercial DiD (Datacenter-in-Datacenter) across Netmagic's datacenters in Mumbai, Noida, Bangalore and Chennai. Spectranet will independently deliver service and support to their customers hosted at the DiDs, with Netmagic providing the core datacenter infrastructure support and services. This is the first such deal in the datacenter space in India where a communication services provider has partnered with a pure-play Data Center Service provider.
Also as part of this deal, Netmagic will benefit from Spectranet's vast fibre and IP network and shall be able to extend these services to its customers. However, Netmagic will continue to be a carrier neutral hosting provider.
The partnership opportunity is worth Rs. 200 Crores and will help Spectranet and Netmagic leverage each other's core competencies to deliver greater value to their customers. Globally, in mature markets, this business model is common within the datacenter space, where an end-user focused service provider partners with a pure-play datacenter service provider for collocation space and related services while focusing on customer service & support. This model provides cost and operational efficiencies for both players.
Says Mr. Udit Mehrotra, Managing Director, Spectranet, "While Spectranet has been providing Datacenter services since 2000, our footprint has been largely limited to Delhi and Bangalore region. This partnership will enable us to rapidly roll out services across the top 4 Enterprise and SMB markets in India. The model ensures that the service delivery and management is entirely done by Spectranet, while leveraging the underlying state-of-the-art infrastructure available at the Netmagic facilities. This partnership will also enable Netmagic to leverage Spectranet's core strengths in intra-city connectivity to offer integrated connectivity and datacenter solutions in the market."
Says Mr. Sharad Sanghi, Founder & CEO, Netmagic Solutions, "We believe that this is a visionary and path-breaking move made by both companies. Given the growth opportunity in the marketplace and cost benefits to be had, the model is a win-win partnership for both organisations. This partnership also comes as an acknowledgment of Netmagic's leadership position in the Managed IT hosting services space that we have built over the last 14 years".
Awarded 'Data Center Service Provider of the Year 2011′ award by Frost & Sullivan, Netmagic has more than 2,00,000 square feet of datacenter space including the recently launched state-of-the-art 40,000 square feet datacenter in Noida to service the NCR region. The Noida Datacenter was the 7th datacenter for the company in India and its first in North India.
About Netmagic Solutions
Netmagic Solutions is India's largest pure-play Managed IT Hosting Services Provider. Netmagic Solutions is ISO 27001, ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 20000-1 certified and its processes are designed as per the ITIL framework.

From journeys of personal discovery and pure celebrations of sound to music as a form of social and political rebellion, these documentaries reveal the tenacity and dedication of the people who devote their life to song.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Federal officials have arrested six people and charged them with hauling 4,890 pounds of marijuana to Kentucky for packaging and sale.
In an affidavit unsealed Friday, Drug Enforcement Administration Brian Bester said agents followed the six men using wiretaps and tracking GPS data through Kentucky and Indiana.
The six were arrested, after agents found close to five thousand pounds of marijuana in a warehouse near Preston Highway and Fern Valley Road in Louisville, according to the U.S. Attorney's office. They're accused of hauling the drugs to Kentucky for packaging and sale.
Drug Enforcement Administration agents followed the six men, using wiretaps and tracking GPS data through Kentucky and Indiana.
Police say the men were working as part of a drug trafficking organization, and had packaged the marijuana in produce containers for cabbage and onions, to help mask the odor of the drug.
Arrested were Osvaldo Saldivar Avila, Ricardo Saldivar Avila, Jose Alfredo Zavala, Jose Antonio Mora Pizarro, Rafael Garcia Garcia and Raimundo Ramirez.
All six face charges of possession with intent to distribute and distribution of 1000 kilograms or more of marijuana. They appeared in federal court in Louisville Friday and were lodged in the Oldham County Jail in La Grange, Ky., according to the jail's website.
Court records did not list attorneys for the men.

Rated 3.7 out of 5�by 12 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by sopaw Firm Footing I've never been a fan of soft spikes, and somehow neglected them this year to the point that about half of them were totally "torn apart" and affording me little, if any, traction on the course. Needless to say, I headed to my local (Downingtown, PA) DSG and was fortunate to run into my regular....and favorite....sales associate in the golf department, Cary. And I'm glad he was there, as I was all set to hurriedly pick up a bag of the wrong type of spike when Cary set me straight. He went even further to the point of removing the old chewed up ones and install the new ones on my shoes. I played the next day with the new spikes keeping me firmly in place on every swing, and I highly recommend Cyclone Golf Cleats as a step-up alternative when you're looking to replace yours. And, needless to say, many thanks for the usual high level of service and customer satisfaction rendered by Cary at the Downingtown store. September 9, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Jakester good spikes The spikes worked well. I had to remember to give them one extra twist with a spike wrench to insure that they would stay. Your associate, Curt, did a great job matching them to my shoes in the store to insure they were the right product. September 9, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Luvgolf As Advertised These spikes were replacements for the original cleats that were on my pair of Footjoy Dryjoy tour. Not sure if any other design and style of cleat would fit my Dryjoy tours but was able to find the same cleat that the shoe was originally equipped with which wear well and provide great traction.

I did find one at home but it was only a simple flat metal with two points to try and remove. Had to get pliers to create enough torque. Seem to work fine and traction has improved. July 22, 2014

"I had seen faces in photographs I might have found beautiful had I known even vaguely in what beauty was supposed to consist. And my father's face, on his death-bolster, had seemed to hint at some form of aesthetics relevant to man. But the faces of the living, all grimace and flush, can they be described as objects?" – Samuel Beckett, First Love
Can you make yourself happier just by smiling? What if you could get rid of a headache or think more clearly just by altering the look on your face?
This body of work started with my ideas of imaginary body systems that would be able to alter a person's character or influence personality. Systems that could be added or removed to make one better able to handle stress, make decisions or speak a foreign language. A system that could change the way a person interacts with others, or compatible systems that would allow people to understand each other better. The majority of this work focuses on the face, and the way that facial expressions might alter a person, physiologically and emotionally. These drawings are attempts to visualize such systems.
As I imagined new systems of the body, I also tried to rethink my way of drawing. Formal aspects became my main focus, such as breaking up the traditional square or rectangle, creating free form wall drawings and experimenting with non-traditional drawing mediums such as wire. The wire allowed me to explore my obsession with line yet push myself to use it differently, underlining the relationship between sculpture and drawing in my work. I began to use the wall as the picture plane, cutting the paper and extending the drawn line onto the wall itself. These formal investigations have further informed my conceptual base and continue to inspire new work.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, freak out! Last night during Saturday Night Live, semi-reclusive French duo Daft Punk had 15 seconds of brand new music teased via a mysterious commercial. The song's title never appeared, but the disco-drenched guitar licks sound undeniably like '70s hitmakers Chic — or, particularly, like the handy work of Chic mastermind/legendary music producer Nile Rodgers, who has been working with the pair on new music.
There's not much to go by here, but as is typical with Daft Punk, it only takes a mere 15 seconds for us to declare that we NEED THIS ALBUM. NOW.
Listen above, then flash back with a few Chic classics below!
"All I can say is those guys are geniuses and to think that after all these years we've been trying to get together, they just show up at my apartment in New York City and the vibe between us is so powerful and so strong – it's unbelievable," Rodgers told Mixmag last year.

Chic — "Good Times"

All-new last year, the Audi A6 is little changed for 2013. Quattro all-wheel drive (AWD) is now available with the base 2.0 turbo engine, an economizing stop/start feature is added to the 3.0 supercharged engine and top- and corner-view cameras are available for the parking-assist system.
No major changes for 2010.
The 2009 Audi S6 receives some minor cosmetic upgrades to its front fascia and rear end, as well as updated wheels. New standard equipment includes a DVD-based navigation unit and rear park assist.
Audi has long been considered one of the world's great luxury car names, but up until recently, the company seemed content not making waves when it came to rivals BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Those days are gone as Audi is now aggressively gunning for BMW and MB's customer base. Audi's strategy is clearly evident in the 2014 A6, a sedan that masterfully blends performance and luxury into a single, well-heeled machine admired as much for its efficiency as its opulence. A choice of turbocharged and supercharged gasoline engines and a new TDI clean diesel model help Audi further expand its reach, as does the 420-horsepower high-performance S6.

Artificial joints are medical devices, which must be cleared or approved by the FDA before they can be marketed in the United States. In addition, FDA permission is required before a company can test a new or redesigned prosthesis in human studies. The data gathered in these studies, which take place in specific hospitals, may then be used to support a company's application for marketing its prosthesis to surgeons and hospitals throughout the United States.
What does the agency look for before clearing a prosthesis for marketing? "It has to be proven safe and effective," says Barbara Zimmerman, chief of the FDA's orthopedic devices branch. "FDA assures safety and effectiveness using different means depending on the risks of a particular device and the technology that it presents."
For devices with a history of safe and effective use, frequently those using established technology, the FDA relies on a set of general controls to determine which devices can be marketed, says Zimmerman. "These general controls are augmented with special controls such as standards or standard test methods.
"For devices involving new uses or advanced technology, FDA often requires that a particular device be demonstrated to be safe and effective through clinical trials," she says.

There are people who love you and want you to be around for a very long time. Studies have shown that weight loss of 10 percent or more of your total body weight can increase your life expectancy. If you are overweight or obese, you are a heart attack or stroke waiting to happen. Is it fair to the people you love to see that happen?
I'm and EMT. I've been trained to save lives. It is extremely challenging to save an overweight person who has suffered a heart attack. Even with the latest techniques and AED equipment, the chances of survival are slim. I don't work on an ambulance crew, but those guys get 9-1-1 calls every day for heart attacks. Each time they struggle because they see grieving families standing around watching as they try to revive a loved one. It doesn't have to happen.
I am going to help you so that does not happen to you, if you will let me.

The Bully Pulpit Of Public Office
Hartford's City Treasurer Uses Public Email To Raise Non-Profit Money
Hartford's City Treasurer Uses Public Email To Raise Non-Profit Money
Without personal attack, the situation still requires scrutiny and immediate remedy. Pressing for charitable causes no matter how deserving is not part of his job and therefore should not be part of his working day. Moreover, there are great conflict of interest issues with being boss over his wife. There is no way around that one, and there is no comparison to Malloy's wife heading up a non-profit. She does not report directly to her husband. Propriety, professionalism, fairness... these are requirements of the treasurer's job and which are obviously in jeopardy here. Fix it and maintain the integrity of the office, please.
The news of Governor Malloy's wife Cathy taking the helm at the Greater Hartford Arts Council is equally disturbing. While this and Mr. Cloud's actions are legal, they are both borderline ethical, and shouldn't pass the "sniff test." Any corporation doing business with the city knows that if they don't support one of these causes, it will be a black mark against future contracts with the state and the city.
How is this different from all the public school teachers demanding students "volunteer" for the teachers' favorite cause? Some public schools mandate a certain number of "volunteer" hours for graduation and don't see the irony.
Government has taken over so many of what should be private individual decisions they don't know where one ends and the other begins.(example-government thinks it's responsible for: what we eat, how much we eat, how we flavor our food-not too much salt there you know-,what speech is OK and what is not-wouldn't want to offend a victim group-, and even how much water we use to flush the toilet).
Mr. Cloud needs to have an orientation on city services, depts, and city staff responsibilities. At one point the Administrative Operations Manager in Management & Budget was charged with assisting non-profits in securing city, state, federal & private grant funds.
This is a serious allegation that deserves further investigation and if anything illegal was done, it brings to question the City Treasurer's ability to function in that role and as fiduciary for city funds.
In the private sector, corporations generally have as part of their code of conduct, not only to avoid potential conflicts of interest but more importantly, the appearance of a conflict of interest. This is a rule that should be adopted by Hartford's City Hall along with strengthening of the City's Ethics Code to avoid such situations. The police incidents in Windsor and Meriden are recent examples of the failure of good nepotism and conflict of interest policies. It is surprising that corporations gave to this cause knowing now this request could potentially violate their codes of conduct
It is also disingenuous to use a worthy cause as a charity to benefit Hartford kids as justification for the actions taken, given the implied strong political overtones.
Hartford deserves better accountability from its leaders and officials.
The more things change the more they stay the same! Anyone that thinks the need for change is not here does not fully understand the depths of corruption that has a firm grip on the city.
This is just one more reason all powers are being used to keep me out of city hall. I have given in kind production work to nonprofits in excess of $100,000.00 in the last 4 years. Never did I call upon the banks to do what is incumbent upon me to do myself.
That is how you Damn sure make sure non-profits get the help they need. You do it by doing it, not through bully tactics and abusing the power of your office.

World's First Robot Census
When a Carnegie Mellon student decided to count all the robots on campus, she had no idea it was the spark that would start a conflagration.
According to the best estimate of Heather "Marilyn Monrobot" Knight, a graduate student at Carnegie Mellon University, there are almost certainly more robots on campus than there are people working in the university's robotics program.
"Which is insanity," says Knight, referring not to the number of robots--CMU is the only university in the U.S. to specifically offer a degree, rather than a specialization, in robotics--but to the number of people on campus whose entire working existence is devoted to creating them. "There are 599 people [in the robotics program], including 100 or 120 people working in a government lab that's off campus," she adds. "I'm not sure if they're allowed to tell me about their robots--the estimate I've heard is between 100 and 300."
In total, Knight can officially confirm the existence of 547 robots on campus (that number doesn't include the population in the secret government lab) and that's just the beginning: as word spreads through the Maker community and the effort's Twitter feed, she plans to take the world's first robot census as far as it will go, eventually canvassing as wide a swath of the home-brew and university robotics efforts as possible.
Just by asking the keepers of the world's automatons to submit their research subjects, Knight is posing a challenging question: What is a robot?
"Everyone agrees there are 3 minimum requirements." says Knight. "These are the minimum, but not sufficient requirements: They must act in the world, sense the world, and they need to have computation."
The problem with this traditional definition of a robot is that it encompasses almost all forms of automation, including thermostats and washing machines. This has led some thinkers to add to the list of characteristics things like agency, autonomy and embodiment.
The robot census doesn't answer these questions, but it does force its participants to engage with them.
"It's kind of like, [what constitutes a robot] is not really an argument that's worth having--but it is a discussion that's worth having," says Knight.
Knight's inspiration for initiating the census is her own work in integrating robots into people's everyday lives. Westerners, especially, tend to harbor negative associations with robots. "It's hard to compete with the Terminator movie," says Knight.
By showcasing the incredible variety and utility of the robots at Carnegie Mellon and elsewhere, Knight thinks she might be able to punch through people's preconceived notions and pave the way to getting robots into the home, where they can do the most damage once they're activated by SkyNet's central hive mind.
"Every time I give a talk I have people from age 8 to 50 that say they or their child wants to know how to get into robotics," says Knight. "There's so much interest and it's about figuring out where those applications are, not just in theory but in real life."
Here's a selection of the robots indexed in the Robot Census:
