What good is this app if once it enters your passcode it doesn't wait for the voice to ask you to enter the # you are trying to reach before it autodials the number and then the call fails.

This app is useless to my Samsung galaxy S3 android phone. I strictly followed the instructions to do the setup. When I dialed a phone number that starts with 011, the app dialer did start dialing a local access. Then it asks me to enter my internatio

Creative Reuse of Vintage Books
Looking for the perfect bookshelf for the bibliophile in your life? Consider these bookshelves created by CA artist Jim Rosenau from actual vintage books. According to Rosenau's website, "No books that could change the course of world events are harmed in the production."
The unique shelves and pieces of furniture at This Into That are made from real books, though some of the paper pages are removed and replaced with a sturdy armature of salvaged lumber. Most of the books come from donations, recycling centers, and library discards; Rosenau prefers to work with older hardback books that "look better than they read", and tries to research any books that look valuable for placement with rare book dealers. The shelves are sturdy enought to support typical loads, but must be kept out of direct sunlight, and are subject to damage by abrasion and moisture. Rosenau can create a custom shelf using the book or central theme of your choice.
1 Comment
I love the idea, but I cringe at sacrificing hardback books like this. I was brought up in a family that holds books to be close to sacred objects to be cared for or donated to a library when no longer wanted, but never trashed or just discarded. So far the only book I've been able to bring myself to re-purpose has been a hardbound _Principals of Actuarial Table Composition_ from the 60's.

Jul 26 2013: Define developed and fairness.
Fairness is a level field of competition. The fact that some countries are further developed than other countries is a fact, but a competitive market bears no responsibility or tolerance for this fact. I think that as far as marketing resources or produce, the level of development might be balanced by transportation costs. The imbalance might also serve as motivation for continuing to develop in the areas needed to make them competitive.
How to achieve fairness when countries are at differing stages of development is one factor among many that are concurrently balanced by world leaders at the United Nations Economic and Social council.

what will 2.1 actually give us

Voice controls
- Being able to control your phone via voice may not be at the top of everyone's list of features, but as the demo on the Nexus One showed, its implementation in Android 2.1 is immense. Not only can you demand it takes you somewhere and be presented with turn-by-turn voice directions, but you can also send Tweets, SMS messages and emails just by telling your phone what you want to say. Smart, huh?
Can't think of any situation where I would need to talk to my phone or where I wouldn't feel an absolute fool doing it. One of the reasons I prefer to text/email/Tweet/etc is that it is a lot more private when out and about than calling and shouting my message down the phone to someone.
Google Earth
- The Google Earth app for Android will launch hand in hand with 2.1, and it does look mighty impressive from over here. It's pretty similar, well, to Google Earth on
, but there's a new mode where you can apparently fly through the air like a bird. Nice.
Struggling to see how this is different to the Satellite View in Google Maps that we currently have, except the ability to "fly through the air like a bird".
- The phonebook on Android 2.1 devices will automatically pull in contacts from multiple sources including Facebook, and although it was a feature found on many customised UIs such as Motorola's MotoBLUR, having it natively installed makes it much smoother.
Blackberry tried to do this with an update just as I was leaving for Android. Hated it. I don't want contact pics changing when Facebook users decide to. I don't want to lose phone numbers when Facebook users decide to remove them from their account. I want control over my own phonebook.
- Android 2.1 will bring with it the ability to have more than one Gmail account working from the same inbox. This means if you have two Gmail accounts, you can get them both feeding one inbox, rather than having to set up separate accounts.
Which you can already do using the other email application which comes installed (just set up your Gmail as IMAP) or with something like K-9 Mail which offers far greater flexibility and features than the Gmail app.
Weather App
- The new weather app as featured on Android 2.1 will include dynamic weather updates that use GPS to give minute-by-minute accounts of the temperature, humidity and weather conditions in your current location.
I guess I can't comment on this one. If I want to know the weather I look outside the window.
Interactive wallpapers
- OK, so this doesn't really improve the functionality of Android, but it will make Android devices look prettier. Animated wallpapers are onboard, and if you fancy it, you can interact with them too. For example, if you have an animated wallpaper featuring water, you can press the screen and ripples will appear.
Imagine this is just there as a "can your iPhone do THIS?" facility. Certainly not useful and guranateed to use up battery and processing power.
- The vanilla version of 2.1 will now ship with five homescreens rather than the measly three on 2.0 devices. It means you can cram in more apps from the rapidly increasing selection on the Android Market, and of course shortcuts and Widgets. Although customised OS Android devices (such as the Milestone, T-Mobile Pulse, HTC Magic) did previously have more than three homescreens, they're now there from the off!
Actually might be useful this one. Of course, pointless for anyone with an HTC device with seven home screens. Make more sense if they actually made the folders useable my allowing custom arranging of icons within them. Wouldn't need more than three homescreens then.
Photo gallery
- A new photo gallery feature brings a new way of viewing your pics to Android. Google took some of the functionality from COOLIRIS, allowing you to seamlessly browse your photos on a 3D wall. Albums are clustered by time, date and location too, so your gallery will be perfectly ordered.
I'll not comment on this one until I've seen it.
Current photo viewer is pretty poor, so let's hope this is an improvement.
App Launcher
- Android's App Launcher has been revamped so you no longer have to drag and pull to get to the app menu. Simply tap a button and everything smoothly zooms into place
Funny - I thought that was already the case. Is on my Hero and Magic.
Firmware upgrade
- Although not directly related to the new firmware features, news is spreading that some lucky Android users will be able to upgrade existing devices to 2.1. The list so far includes the HTC Magic, Samsung Galaxy and Motorola Milestone, although we're sure most newer Android devices will benefit from the upgrade too.
"Some lucky Android users"? That's almost patronising enough for me to decide right now that this will be my last Android device.
Now, this IS the only list of 2.1 updates I have read so I may be missing out on a whole lot of other stuff, but why are Google concentrating on allowing us to "fly like a bird" and ignoring basic shortcomings in the things that really matter such as contacts (Why can't we sort by last name? Why do they think that postal addresses are so unimportant?), calendar (Why is there no useable week view?), Tasks (What tasks? They're there in Google online), etc.
Jeez, chillax dude, no need to get so uptight. Its only a phone. If you are not keen on the update, dont update. I am sure that the fixes you want will come with 2.1 but advertising doesnt generally dwell on minor things, just the 'wow' factor.

Santa Rosa County click links below for definitions
About the Calculator
The personal return on investment calculator uses survey data collected during the Florida taxpayer return on investment study. The study reported total county numbers. These numbers were turned into per library visit numbers by dividing the total county number by the number of annual visits to the library in that county. For example, total revenue investment – the money spent by the county on the library – was turned into per visit revenue by dividing the total revenue by the number of visits. Total economic return – the dollar benefit a user receives by using a public library instead of having to buy the information themselves – was turned into a per visit number in the same way.
Using the per visit revenue investment for each county as the cost of having a public library and then comparing to the per visit economic return as the benefit, the calculator allows the user to enter the number of times they visit the library annually to see what their personal benefit has been.
Example: Leon County – 5 visits to the library (in-person) last year
Revenue Per Visit : $5.52 x 5 visits = $27.60
Return Per Visit: $58.93 x 5 visits = $294.65
ROI Per Visit: $9.67 x 5 visits = $48.35

Almost four months after its arrival, the Play Pump remains the most popular place to be. Not only children from the primary school, but parents and grandparents are often seen chatting at the spigot's end exchanging gossip while collecting water. After school there is – quite literally – standing room only. Lines form for a chance to hop on and a take a spin. Any able-bodied person cannot walk past without a throng of learners demanding a push.
Peace Corps Volunteer Andrew Hubble recently installed a 'Play Pump' water filtration system, which will serve as a reliable source of fresh drinking water for his South African community.

ASIA/SYRIA - In Aleppo Christians fleeing rebel-held areas. A fatwa "authorizes" to rape women who are not Sunni
Aleppo (Agenzia Fides) - The conquest of the district of Cheikh Maksoud by the anti-Assad militia which took place in recent days could mark the fate of Aleppo, the metropolis battered for months by a bloody civil war. "That neighborhood" confirms to Fides Agency Father David Fernandez, a missionary of the Institute of the Incarnate Word - is located on a hill overlooking Aleppo and is a strategic point for those who want to conquer the central area of the city, where there are also government buildings. I am told that already many downtown streets have been closed and noboby can pass through these streets, because from the buildings snipers shoot at everything that moves."
In Cheikh Maksoud, Christians once represented the majority. In recent years the Kurdish population had become dominant, but many Christian families were still gathered around the Armenian Catholic and the Greek-Orthodox Church.
Father David confirms to Fides that in the past days more than three hundred Christian families have fled the area captured by the rebels. "At least 120 Christians" says the priest, "have found refuge in the house of the Marist Brothers." Among the fugitives, news about murders and rapes of women perpetrated against families who were linked to the army government circulate. "Even I have heard of this," says Father David, "but the information we receive is a lot and sometimes contradictory, and for the moment there is no way of verifying it."
Yesterday, through the social network youtube the fatwa issued by Yasir al-Ajlawni was released - A Jordanian Salafi sheikh - resident in Damascus – who declares lawful for opponents of the regime of Bashar al-Assad rape committed against "any Syrian woman not Sunni." According to the disturbing sheikh, capturing and raping Alawi or Christian women is not contrary to the precepts of Islam. (GV) (Agenzia Fides 05/04/2013).

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - Epcot World Showcase has been a "showplace" of nations since its grand opening in 1982. But beyond the pagodas in Japan and the longboats in Norway lies a whole other world, treating art lovers to museum-quality galleries. Since early galleries in Japan and Morocco, the opportunities for art appreciation have grown with the addition of galleries in Norway, China and Mexico.
The American Adventure
In Norway's Gol Stave Church Gallery, the ancient world of the Vikings is brought to life through a rare collection of Viking artifacts, including some that date back more than 1,000 years. This special exhibit also includes vignettes depicting three Norwegian Viking leaders: Erik the Red, King Olaf and Rögnvald the Raider, and a detailed scale model of the 9th century Viking ship Oseberg, providing a glimpse into Viking culture and these individuals who helped shape history.
The Vikings: Conquerors of the Seas is held within a small reproduction of a Stave Church, where guests may experience the history and legend of these seafaring Scandinavian warriors, ship builders and explorers, while viewing swords, arrow points, and other significant artifacts found in Norwegian archaeological sites.
In ancient Chinese civilization, members of the royal dynasty carried miniature terra cotta or stone carved warriors with them in their tombs to protect them from supernatural threats. At the gallery inside the China pavilion, guests glimpse a miniature recreation of the tomb of China's first emperor, which is the single largest archeological find in the world. Epcot guests also have the opportunity to see authentic tomb sculptures from Ancient China — dating back 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty.
Spirited Beasts: From Ancient Stories to Anime Stars
Exhibition located inside of the Japanese castle.

The Stage Design of Apollo Will Be Otherworldly and Unique
Apollo, Roskilde Festival's new electronic stage, is ready.
Apollo is inflatable, the colour orange and with an otherworldly, cocoon-like appearance, so that people might mistake it for some kind of UFO or mirage at the first encounter. Visuals and specially designed helium balloons will be an integrated part of the experience as soon as the music commences.
Drawn in Berlin, sown in Barcelona
Apollo's design has been tendered at six studios as well as the usual suppliers of light and sound. The internationally acclaimed, Berlin-based studio p was chosen. In close interaction with Roskilde Festival they thought out the unique construction. Área Cúbica situated on the outskirts of Barcelona has sown the stage which we will receive in Roskilde shortly.
During our warm-up days from 1 to 4 July we present Nordic, electronic artists at the stage – during this period we have named the stage Apollo Countdown.

Anonymous asked: (2/2) i dont know how to address this to him, or just explain it so that he'll stop downing his on opinions and basically let me walk all over him. be a man, i guess, you know? i just want to know how to explain to him that he doesnt have to be like that or how to address the situation for him to understand what i mean and for him to stop :/
I think you should just be open and tell him that he won't be upsetting you by expressing his opinions, and in fact you want him to do so. I could be wrong but it seems to me like this could be a sign that he has low self-esteem, so he automatically acts as if what he likes/wants is not important.
However, you can't expect him to change this about himself overnight, so once you tell him, encourage him every now and then so he can gradually change his habit. Tell him you want to hear what his opinion is, and it doesn't always have to be the same as yours. Say that you love him for who he is, not because he agrees with you all the time.
If you are gentle, encouraging, and supportive, he will see with time that his opinions matter and that he should be open about them.

This has been my HG pressed powder for years! I began wearing this while in high school, like many other Clinique products. I have tried many others throughout the years but I always come back to this. I'm a PPP and wear Stay Buff and it is perfect, never chaulky, and is fragrance free. This controls any shine breakthrough and doesn't breakout my skin or clog my pores. Love it!
For my NC30-35 skin, the Clinique lady selected Stay Neutral (02). I thought it would be too light but it was a good match and did not deposit too much additional color on my face. Unlike many powders, this one did not leave my skin looking or feeling dry. Although I have combination skin, this did not adequately control oil. After a few hours, my face looked shiny again.
More reviews by fermidiracgirl
I dont get how this gets such bad reviews. I love it. It works well to blot up shine, or if you dont want to wear foundation, it works great alone. I bought this in Stay Buff and its a perfect match. It kept my nose free from shine all day (granted, I dont have terribly oily skin, but it can get shiny sometimes). The sponge isnt bad, but you should wash it frequently. its a repurchase for me.
This product is the worse pressed powder I have very oily skin like it gets oily 5 minutes after I WASH my face and acne-prone.The powder does not DELIVER what it says it will do.I hate it soooo much I just want to throw it away!!!!
I got this pressed powder because I was impressed by my HG Clinique loose powder, but I was wrong this pressed powder is nothing like the loose one. It doesn't blot for long and it doesn't cover that much it's like nothing on my skin, I think I could get a cheeper powder for that results, but it's good for sensitive skins, I have sensitve skin and didn't break out at all!
I think this powder is just okay...not horrible but not the greatest either. It keeps my skin shine-free for awhile, but I definitley need touch-ups and I don't have extremely oily skin. I do like the smell and the packaging quality is nice, but I think there are betters powders out there. **UPDATE** I just bought this powder again, but in a lighter shade. I was using Stay Neutral before and now I have Stay Buff. I have to say I like this powder so much better now. My skin looked a little ruddy before, so I guess I just had the wrong shade. My skin looks fresher now. I still don't feel like I can give it 5 stars, but I can move it up from 3 stars to 4.
It doesn't have a very great amount of coverage and has to be reapplied often if you are an oily/combo gal. It's just a so-so product to me and would rather invest my money in other products.
I have been using the product in Stay Neutral for the last 5 years. It does it's job pretty well for me. I use it over a light moisturizer or tinted moisturizer and it takes away my shine and evens my skin tone without getting cakey. When I used to use it with the sponge that it comes with, my boyfriend could tell I had makeup on and said it would sometimes look streaky. Now that I use it with a big fluffy brush, it goes on smoother and lasts longer. Gives a flawless finish. I do have to repurchase about every 3-4 months though, it doesn't last very long in the pan.
This poweder is pretty good, bu definately not the best. It will turn a different shade on you once you become oily later in the day, but you can just touch up and it will look fine, It looks absloutely beautiful when you first put it on!
In my opinion, this is one of the worst products Clinique has created. I love most of Clinique's Cosmetics, but trying this powder was a horrible experience. Since I have oily/acne prone skin, the sales chic informed me that this powder is best for my skin type. When I purchased the powder, I couldn't wait to get home and try it. I washed my face, applied a toner and moisturizer. I applied the powder to my face and ended up looking ashy and death stricken. I used Stay Honey. It looked like cheap funeral home make-up. My skin broke out on the forehead area. It used to be clear. My complexion was ruddy and very, very, very, very, very oily. I returned the "Stay Matte Crap" and got a refuned. This product needs to be reformulated or discontinued!

Just now the mail man came in and handed me our mail. He looked at a small form factor usb wifi adapter hanging in the package next to the service department window. The wifi adapter looks like this.
In a very angry tone he asks if it was a bluetooth adapter. I told him it was a wifi adapter not a bluetooth adapter. He gets upset and says, "What the fuck? I don't get why this isn't bluetooth." After telling him that I can get a bluetooth adapter that looks just like that I asked him, "What are you trying to accomplish? Why do you want a bluetooth adapter?" He said, "I don't know, I don't even know what bluetooth is. Fuck this place." The threw the wifi adapter on the floor and walked out.

When people turn to fictional characters, it's often because they want an escape. The stories of these people shelter us from the storm of our daily lives; they save us, if only for a little while. But when we really give in, become invested, let ourselves be vulnerable, something changes. We begin to feel that we know them. It's no longer just an escape, but part of us, something that makes us who we are.
These characters teach us that incredible adversity can be overcome. That people can love each other forever. That life can be an adventure. That magic can be real. And even if these miracles have never happened to us, we begin to go through life believing that, someday, they could.
If anybody ever tells me that storytelling isn't important anymore, I'll show them this post.

Great interview with Eoin Colfer on his First Doctor story.
In November 2013, Big Finish will be releasing Doctor Who: The Light at the End, a very special 100-minute story to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Doctor Who. Tom Baker (1974-81), Peter Davison (1982-84), Colin Baker (1984-86), Sylvester McCoy (1987-89) and Paul McGann (1996) will all reprise their roles as, respectively, the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth Doctors, whose paths suddenly intersect when they face imminent destruction.
"We wanted to do a proper, fully-fledged multi-Doctor story for this very special occasion," says writer, director and executive producer Nicholas Briggs, "and it's wonderful that all the surviving Doctors threw themselves behind the project so enthusiastically. That's not to say the first three Doctors don't appear – we wanted to pay homage to the whole history of the classic series."
The Doctors will also be joined by a number of their regular companions: Louise Jameson reprises the role of the savage Leela, Sarah Sutton plays the scientist Nyssa, Nicola Bryant is American botany student Peri, Sophie Aldred is streetwise kid Ace and India Fisher returns as Edwardian adventurer Charley Pollard.
"And that's not all," says producer David Richardson, "because Geoffrey Beevers is back to create mayhem as the Master, and there will be a number of appearances from some much-cherished old friends from the TV series…"
Doctor Who: The Light at the End will be released in two different versions. A five-disc limited special edition comes with two hour-long documentaries, plus The Revenants, a Companion Chronicles tale which began life as a free Doctor Who Magazine download. It's performed by William Russell, who starred in the very first TV story as Ian Chesterton. The special edition comes in beautiful special packaging, and will include a number of exclusive professionally photographed images of the cast.
The standard edition comprises two discs, featuring the two hour-long episodes of the story.

1. High Protein Foods
2. Protein Shakes
Protein shakes are the only supplements that will actually help you build muscle because your muscles are made up of protein so…
The only way your muscles can recover, repair itself and build you much bigger & stronger muscles after you workout is if you get enough protein in your diet by eating these high protein foods and/or by drinking protein shakes so really…
You don't have to waste your money on protein shakes unless you're having a hard time getting all the protein you need from high protein foods alone and this could be case if you don't have time to prepare your meals or if you just don't feel like eating lots of high protein foods and…
There's basically 5 types of protein shakes you can get and…
Neither one is better than the other because PROTEIN is PROTEIN and basically… It's all about getting enough protein in your diet no matter where it comes from to build muscle but if you can afford it…
Try to get many different types (not name brands) of protein shakes to get a wider variety of amino acids and here's the 5 types of protein shakes…
4. Soy & Hemp Protein Shakes - Best for vegetarians.
5. Blended Protein shakes - These are just protein shakes that have a combination of whey, casein , egg & other protein sources in them and… Blended protein shakes may be the best for you if you're on a budget so you can get a variety of protein sources & amino acids.
3. Water
You should try to drink at least 1 liter of water everyday because…
4. Complex Carbs (carbohydrates) & Healthy Fats
Before you think about going on an ultra-high protein diet - You must know that YOU CAN'T Build Muscle without eating enough Carbs & fats so really…
About 45-to-65% of the total daily calories you eat should be from carbs & healthy fats and the rest protein and here's why carbs & fats are important for building muscle…
5. Meal Replacement Shakes (MRPs)
If you're having a hard time getting all the calories you need along with enough carbs, protein & fat then that's where Meal Replacement Shakes (or MRPs) can help you meet your dietary needs because…
MRPs contain not only protein but also the right amounts of carbs & fats and MRPs come in all different sizes ranging from 200-to-1000 calories so for example…
Labrada Lean Body For Men is a good Meal Replacement Shake that contains 320 calories, 40g of protein, 22g of carbs and 8g of fat but again…
Meal Replacement Shakes are only important to you if you don't have time to prepare some of your meals and here's…
1. BCAAs (Branched-chain amino acids)
Muscle is made up of protein and protein is made up of amino acids so…
If you're getting enough protein in your diet from high protein foods along with Protein shakes & Meal Replacements then you'll already be getting enough BCAAs in your diet to help you build muscle but…
2. Creatine
YOU DO NOT NEED Creatine to build muscle and creatine is definitely not as important as the other muscle building supplements & foods on this page but all creatine does is…
3. Multi-Vitamins
Sometimes because of the way you diet & exercise to build muscle… Your body loses some of the essential vitamins and minerals it needs to help you build muscle so as an insurance policy…
It's good idea to take a multi-vitamin but usually… Eating the right foods and Protein shakes & Meal Replacements will already supply your body with the muscle building vitamins & minerals it needs.

maKE IT 25-TO-50% OF YOUR DIET
April 21, 2014
Hi adrian,
I got two questions:
1- The gold standard whey protein am using states that their is soy lecithin in it, would that raise the estrogen level?
2- It also states that it should be avoided if individual is trying to lose weight, is that true? or i can consume it as long as i don't exceed the caloric surplus?
February 27, 2014
1 - I cant say whether it does or not (i dont think so) but I use the same brand
2 - correct. calories in vs calories out. you'll lose or gain weight depending on how much you eat

hi there Adrian! I am female, my height is 172 sm, my weight is 65. How long will it take me to lose 15 kilos on a VLCD 600 calories a day?Thanx!
September 11, 2013
not long but you may gain back all you lose unless you can realistically stick to a 600 calorie diet forever. it's not good to starve to lose weight
September 11, 2013
thank you for your reply! I counted on one of the caloriescalculators online it would take me 15 weeks. Will it be faster if I eat 1 meal a day and the rest would fast?
Also, could you please tell me-I have read that oat bran calories dont count because they are poure insoluble fiber so there is no need to count them. is it true?
Thank you!
September 13, 2013
the less you eat and the more active you are = the faster you will lose weight but with that crazy 600 calorie plan you're on you will probably gain back all you lose and more

I'm 177cm (5ft10.5) tall and weigh 60kg so I guess you could say I have a slim/skinny frame. I try to work out for 45 mins most days of the week just lifting weights and using a chin up/pull up bar. However, muscle doesn't seem to be building and if it is, then the process is incredibly slow. I was just wondering which protein shake or exercises should I do which fit my description best? Please recommend something as everywhere I go, everyone suggests everythings the same and I end up not buying as I'm unsure and there has to be a reason for differences in stuff like protein shakes - whey, casien, isolate etc.
It'd be lovely to hear a reply, Thanks mate.
September 05, 2013
it's not the TYPE of protein but HOW much protien are you eating? also, see this

I'm 19 years old, 6 foot tall male. I have a skinny frame and I am starting to noticing some fat around my abdominals and other parts of my body. I am an taekwondo instructor and I am not as active as I use to be when I was a student. I am studying 3 different medical degrees, so I don't have any time to work out or have a proper meal some times, since I spend the majority of the time studying. A lot of my money has gone into my medical degree so I can't really afford any fancy diet for gaining muscle.
Some weeks I can squeeze in at least 20-40 mins a week of weights session at the university gym. My question is "How do I gain muscle on a budget?" and "What kind of things should I take?
June 04, 2013
use this diet & workout but for the workout just do group A of each workout to save time

i´m 23 years old 1.8 meters tall man, i have lost 7.5 inches in my waist in the last months now i´m 39 inches, i still have some work to do, and i already built some muscle (for example my arm is 15 inches), now reduce my waist is becoming a more slow process, i still see it but is more slow, my concern is about to add carnitine first time in the morning and before workout (usually at 11am), will carnitine make me loss my last 5-7 inches in my waist but at the same time make me lost some of the muscle i already built? or carnitine will give me energy for intense muscle and cardio workouts and lost my last 5-7 inches and to the same time get bigger muscles?. i hope you got a minute to give me your opinion and sorry if my redaction isn't good, i'm mexican and learning english, greetings!!!
May 30, 2013
yes the carnitine may give you more energy to help you lose weight faster to get a smaller waist but your workout and diet plan is the most important

March 03, 2013
you can but you really do not need to waste money on aminos since they are already in most protein supplements
March 03, 2013
Hi, I was wondering if you had any recommendations for someone with trouble with muscle recovery? I have some unknown muscular issue that causes me to be very weak even when doing small tasks. A few years ago I used to be very active and even was doing p90x but now I can't lift anything very heavy and get very sore when I do even small things like light housework or even wearing shoes that have a chunky heel (it makes my legs very shaky and sore). any suggestions?
February 23, 2013
have you recently just stared back to working out?
February 24, 2013
WOW! I can't believe how off this information is. 1, 2, and 3 are good. 4 is half wrong, well everything that talks about carbs is wrong. You don't need carbs at all to build muscle. Exercise alone will spike insulin levels enough to build muscle. Eating high quality fats is a must!
The following statements "If you don't eat enough carbs - your body will breakdown and burn muscle for energy causing you to lose muscle and along with water…" AND "You need to eat carbs to stay energized so you can workout longer and lift heavier weights to build bigger muscles because your body uses Carbohydrates for energy and more importantly…" - These statements are completely wrong. There is something called ketosis. After 10 days of ultra low carbs, sub 30 grams per day, your body will start burning fat for energy instead of carbs. After 10 days if you continue to stay ultra low carb without a cheat day or 1 or 2 cheat meals then you will begin to start chewing up muscle similarly seen in intermittent fasting.
And 5. Why tell people to eat meal replacement shakes? You should be making time to eat quality snacks like nuts and little amounts of fruit if you have any concern about building muscle. These items have much better properties for building muscle than any meal replacement shake will give you.
I would say a multi-vitamin should replace number 5. Multi-vitamins are key to staying healthy. You could replace number 3 in the in the not crucial section with fish oil. BCAAs are good along with Creatine if your actually pushing yourself hard enough to need Creatine. BCAAs are usually in a quality protein shake anyway.
February 22, 2013
Still scratching my head at this one? Before I go further, are you honestly saying that complex carbs are not an extremely beneficial way to build lean muscle, promote healthy cholesterol, retain healthy insulin levels and provide muscles with prolonged energy as opposed to spikes??? Complex carbohydrate consumption for the production of lean muscle are essential my friend! Show me a serious health professional, athlete or body builder who does not have oats or complex carbs on their shelf for building muscle and will show you a liar.

My name is Rob. I'm 29 years old, 6' tall and weigh 175 pounds, with a little gut. For the most part, I eat healthy and can prep my own meals. For the past six months, my daily food intake looks like this on most days: for breakfast, I blend blueberries, 2% milk, a banana, and fage total 2% yogurt. In between this and lunch, I eat walnuts and a kashi trail mix bar. Lunch can be a wildcard... 3-4x a week,I make my own ham and turkey sandwich with carrots on the side and an activia yogurt, other times I'll eat out. For dinner, 3-4x a week, I'll make grilled chicken w/ spinach leaves and carrots. I only drink water, no soda or juices... and I'll have about 4-5 shots of whiskey every weekend; I don't drink beer.
I do pushups every other day (diamond/wide/shoulder) and regular wide pullups 3x/week. I also curl a 20lb kettle ball I purchased (they aren't cheap!).
Knowing all that, I have two questions...
1) my goal is to get bigger arms, and make my chest look better; maybe even get rid of my little skinny-man gut. Should I buy protein powder? I'm trying to avoid that if I can incorporate actual food but I don't mind it. I've read I should be taking in as much protein as my body weight, 175g. Is that true?
2) Also, I want to avoid using weights. Is it possible to achieve what I want just doing pushups, pullups/chinups, handstands (saw that on the site), dips, planks?
Thank you!
January 21, 2013
Actually, I weigh 165 not 175. I just weighed myself. Looks like I lost some weight in the past few months.
January 21, 2013
1) yes 175g or 1g per pound is true
2) it is but eventually you may need to do weighted dips and etc. to get bigger arms.
see how to get bigger arms and see how to get bigger chest

I'm 5'9" 147-153lbs and in training to take the EOD PAST test. I was wondering how many calories I should be trying to intake daily based on my weight and that I workout 5-6 days a week, with the outcome being an increase of 20 more pushups/sit ups, and 3 more pull ups. I try to eat as much protein as possible and use either shakes or bars after work outs. My diet revolves around quinoa, (wild/brown/white) rice, pinto beans and chicken breast. I just have a hard time building muscle fast enough. and I'm guessing it because I'm not getting enough calories.

With obesity being an epidemic in America, sometimes people that actually NEED to gain weight are overlooked.
I have always been very thin and usually looked at as being FIT OR IN SHAPE, but there is a such thing as being UNDERWEIGHT or MALNOURISHED OR NOT CONSUMING ENOUGH CALORIES.
Your website focuses on proper nutrition and exercise to gain a healthier, sexier & (most importantly) MORE FEMININE body,,, because if I did all of this and ended up looking like a MAN, it would defeat the purpose!

I weigh 87kg, am 29 years old and i am pretty ripped. I don't use supplements when working out, what i do is lift heavy weights, and keep focused while keeping an intense workout. By the end of the work out, i make myself protein brownies, about 67% protein and 31% sugar. I usually make these brownies after every workout, using whey protein of course. And i have found it to be an amazing muscle gainer. Also drink chocolate milk right before, and right after your workout. It is perfectly fine for you to do, as i do it every day.. Well as long as you have an high intensity workout, it wont be a problem.

There's alotta pills to take when doing an Anabolic Stack...but don't dispare! They pair up easy, and you can take em in 2s. My favorite Anabolic Stack is from the Dr Max Powers brand. You do notice a boost of energy from this, nothing major but more of an alert feeling. Which is great.
You can find online - Dr Max Powers The Anabolic Stack - ithas everything you need... EVERYTHING. has amino acids, liver support, and yer standard vitamins all in large quantities. Obviously built for someone serious about performance.
The price is OK. About $60, but for 30 paks its about right. I'd gladly pay more, but I am a college student.

Hey. I'm 30, 185 cm and 104 kg. I was 130kg 6 months ago but I started hitting the gym and eating better. Basically I'm at the stage where losing weight is all good but I'd like to bulk up more/quicker. At the moment in training 5-6 times a week concentrating on a different group each day, with 15 minutes of ab work each day as well as 40 mins of cardio. Only thing I'm not doing is hitting the supplements up. Was looking for advice on what to do / get to speed this process up. (mind you taking into account there have been slack periods during the year and my diet isn't 100% perfect)

You might be hitting the gym too much to build effectively. Typically the body enters catatonic state anywhere from 60-90 minutes into exercise. Catatonic states induce muscle breakdown.
It might help to try doing short, intense burst workouts for your cardio. Maximum of 10 minutes of high intensity, followed by 5-10 minutes rest. Repeat 3 or 4 times.
Also, if you want to try bulking, pick heavy weights with low reps, and always try to grab a buddy who can spot you to push you through failure on your sets. If you can hit the 8th rep on your first set without struggling a bit, you are too light. You gotta tear it down to build it back up stronger....
Other than that, just make sure you are eating small meals every 3 hours or so (to keep your body in anabolic state and generating tissue). I typically eat breakfast around 6am, have a shake in between lunch, lunch, maybe a bar or shake around 3pm, and try to eat dinner before 7pm.
Good luck man!!

Protein shakes are total bullshit.
The best way to gain muscle is by working out like a mofo and drinking chocolate milk right after work out.

Found December 22, 2012 on Mets Merized Online:
PLAYERS: David Wright, Sandy Alderson, RA Dickey, Zack Wheeler, Brandon Nimmo
TEAMS: New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays
TEAMS: New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays
In a column for Newsday, Marc Carig posted comments that David Wright made this week while discussing the way he envisions his role on the team. The Mets third baseman understands that he is now the public face of the franchise and that the fans now expect him to ultimately lead this team to a post season run. "I want to do everything I can to meet the goals that I have and the goals the organization has," he said this past week. Carig reports that Wright was clued in by Sandy Alderson that they were likely trading away R.A. Dickey, and that he did not hesitate to offer his endorsement immediately after the trade was officially announced. Wright also called to introduce himself and welcome both Travis d'Arnaud and Noah Syndergaard to the organization, which he's done before in the past with Zack Wheeler and Mets top draft picks Brandon Nimmo and Gavin Cecchini. With regard to the plan, which for now only a select few know, Wright said he feels privileged to know what the future hold...

LAKE FOREST, IL - MAY 10: Kyle Long #75 of the Chicago Bears and Jordan Mills after going through drills during rookie camp on May 10, 2013 at Halas Hall in Lake Forest, Illinois. (Photo by David Banks/Getty Images)
Admit it. On the first night of the draft, when the Bears announced they were picking Kyle Long in the first round, you said, "Who?" You thought this was a weird pick by Phil Emery. (Grizzly Detail did, too.) Now that you have seen him play in two games, do you still think Long was a questionable pick?
Head coach Marc Trestman is impressed. He knew Long had much to learn. He only played one season of Division I NCAA football and missed most of the Bears' off-season activities because of NFL rules. Still, Trestman is happy with Long's practice in the short time that he has been working with the Bears.
"I can tell you from practice, and I've said it for the past week, (Long) is not making incremental increases in his play—he is really ascending a little bit quicker than that," Trestman said.
OK, enough from his coach. Are you impressed with what you have seen out of the first-round draft pick? He's shown a toughness in protecting the quarterback and athleticism in facing defenders. He also works with teammate Jordan Mills to create walls to deter defensive linemen.
Now do you think he's a good pick? Speak up in the comments.
