The Buena Vista University music department will present its Homecoming Concert on Sunday, Oct. 16 at 3 p.m. in Schaller Memorial Chapel on the campus of BVU. This event caps off Homecoming weekend, celebrating the 125th year of Buena Vista University. The Homecoming Concert is free and open to the public.

Governing isn't good politics anymore, former Defense Secretary tells BVU audience
by Tom Cullen
Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta told Buena Vista University students and faculty Friday that the United States is "governed by crisis" due to gridlock between Congress and the White House.
Vacancy to be filled by July 1
The Buena Vista University Board of Trustees has begun the search for a successor to President Fred Moore and expect to fill his vacancy by July 1, 2017.
The board and presidential search committee, led by AGB Search, are inviting nominations and applications from persons who will provide exceptional and distinguished leadership.
BVU has announced 15 new full-time faculty members for the 2016-17 academic year.
"Our continued hiring demonstrates our commitment to academic priorities," says Dr. Jim Salvucci, vice president for academic affairs/dean of faculty. "The cohort of this year's new faculty is both sizable and high quality. The contributions of these new colleagues will be transformative and will offer BVU students a future of ongoing quality education."
The new faculty members are:
Simpatico says it's a mistake for Republicans to abandon Trump
Rep. Steve King told CNN Monday that sticking with Donald Trump "is not a hard decision" despite the Republican presidential nominee's lewd comments about sexual assault.
King, R-Kiron, said Trump's remarks on a 2005 recording shouldn't be defended. In the video the New Yortker describes his efforts to have sex with a married woman and his belief that his own celebrity allowed him to make sexual advances towards women.
At least he didn't shoot himself in the foot
Oklahoman drunk when he put lead in his leg with .45, police say
Police charged an Oklahoma man Friday after finding he shot himself with an unlicensed firearm in the parking lot of a Storm Lake motel last week.
The Storm Lake Police Department has concluded its investigation into the self-inflicted shooting of a 26-year-old man in the parking lot of the Buena Vista Inn and Suites last Tuesday
Landscape changes can capture carbon, clean water with US support in campaign by Vilsack
Iowa's leading climate scientists this week urged land managers across the state to implement in-farm conservation practices to ward off flooding and sequester carbon into the soil.
Each of us has about 40 chances to accomplish our goals in life. I learned this first through agriculture, because all farmers can expect to have about 40 growing seasons, giving them just 40 chances to improve on every harvest.

Erica Campbell is giving up the Hollywood Secrets to St. Jude
Hey Cuties, On Friday I chatted with Erica Campbell, one-half of gospel singing group Mary Mary on behalf of St. Jude. It was like chatting with one of my girlfriends; we clicked and chatted like we'd known one another for years. I love a kindred spirit. We talked about why she is supporting St. Jude, her new music and new Mary Mary music and more.

Uncommon commentaries [on energy subjects
Comments from several individuals are given on cogeneration expansion (Lindsay Audin); electric power system reliability in a deregulated market (Marija D. Ilic, MIT and Leonard S. Hyman, Salomon Smith Barney); demand size management (Robert J. Bradley, Jr., Cato Institute); and new questions about the competitive electric power market (Mike Sherman, Peregrine Energy Group).
Analysis of water and soil from the wetlands of Upper Three Runs Creek. Volume 2A, Analytical data packages September--October 1991 sampling
Haselow, L.A.; Rogers, V.A.; Riordan, C.J.; Eidson, G.W.; Herring, M.K.
Shallow water and soils along Upper Three Runs Creek (UTRC) and associated wetlands between SRS Road F and Cato Road were sampled for nonradioactive and radioactive constituents. The sampling program is associated with risk evaluations being performed for various regulatory documents in these areas of the Savannah River Site (SRS). WSRC selected fifty sampling sites bordering the Mixed Waste Management Facility (MWMF), F- and H-Area Seepage Basins (FHSB), and the Sanitary Landfill (SL). The analytical results from this study provided information on the water and soil quality in UTRC and its associated wetlands. The analytical results from this investigation indicated that the primary constituents and radiological indicators detected in the shallow water and soils were tritium, gross alpha, radium 226, total radium and strontium 90. This investigation involved the collection of shallow water samples during the Fall of 1991 and the Spring of 1992 at fifty (50) sampling locations. Sampling was performed during these periods to incorporate high and low water table periods. Samples were collected from three sections along UTRC denoted as Phase I (MWMF), Phase II (FHSB) and Phase III (SL). One vibracored soil sample was also collected in each phase during the Fall of 1991. This document is compiled solely of experimental data obtained from the sampling procedures.
High-resolution stratigraphic forward modeling: A case study of the lower-middle San Andres formation, Permian basin
Shuster, M.W. , Rijswijk ); Childers, D.W. )
This study has attempted to calibrate Shell's two-dimensional (2-D) basin modeling program as an exploration tool by simulating the stratigraphy of a mixed carbonate/clastic third-order depositional sequence. The lower-middle San Andres Formation was selected because available log, core, and outcrop data from the Northwest Shelf area, Permian basin, provided an excellent calibration set. A regional stratigraphic cross section from the Cato-Chaveroo to the Wasson fields was constructed delineating lithology and porosity distribution. Approximately 10 shoaling-upward depositional cycles were interpreted. A higher frequency, five-in-one cyclicity was also interpreted based on core and outcrop data. The observed stratigraphy was simulated using a composite eustasy consisting of third-order (2,000,000 yr), fourth-order (100,000 yr), and fifth-order (20,000 yr) sinusoids each at five-meter amplitudes. Subsidence input was constrained by back-stripped tectonic subsidence curves calculated from well data. Sedimentation parameters were interactively derived. New empirically based algorithms were used to model Dunham lithofacies, environmental facies, and sabkha anhydrite distribution. Synthetic log and 2-D synthetic seismic profiles were constructed from the simulation output. The simulation results suggest that (1) relative sea level is the dominant control on the observed depositional cyclicity, (2) the distribution of regional seal facies (anhydrite) reflects falling sea level and prolonged exposure, (3) limestone-dolomite trends on the shelf are grossly related to environment and (4) the distribution of grainstones and packstones (potential reservoirs) occurs as fourth- and fifth-order offlapping and aggradational pods. The synthetic log signatures compared to [open quotes]real[close quotes] logs substantiate the interpreted depositional cyclicity, but also point out the difficulty in interpreting high-order cycles based on log data alone.

In the Heat of Our Own Pictures
A Performanceread more
The Performance Bridge [Getting on and off the Stage] is a curriculum
under development funded by the continuing education programme Leonardo
da Vinci of the European Union.
This new curriculum focuses on the needs of performers, i.e. dancers,
actors and musicians. It addresses both the young performing artists
in transition from school to their professional carreers and mature artists
in transition from the stage to other supporting professions in the theater.
We anticipate this curriculum being available to the profession by late
The goal and objective of The Performance Bridge [Getting on and off
the Stage] is to develop entrepreneur skills in the young artist and
mature artist enabling them to self-produce their own performances.
The curriculum will provide an overview of the following skills:
The methods of content delivery will be e-learning, online tutoring
and live-seminars.
It is not the intention of The Performance Bridge [Getting on and off
the Stage] to produce an expert in each of these fields but rather a
person knowledgable in handling these elements for creating and producing
performances of a theatrical context. Thus the delivery of the information
is the major challenge in retraining and expanding employability for
performing artists.

"I like this vintage style Santa graphic, but I read that the designer used a cutting machine to cut a red vinyl decal to afix to the cream painted wood board. I don't know what kind of cutting machine she is talking about and I wonder how pricey it is? I'd like an alternative to getting that Santa on there."
"This wall decor is very chic with any message you write on it! And it couldn't be easier. However, another option to using foam core board would be to actually buy an old thrift store bulletin board and spray paint it black. I think it would give the wall art a little bit more of a lived-in rustic look as the cork board adds texture and interest."
"This DIY holiday project is something that I would like to do at home myself. This craft is not for everyone's taste, but if you like a certain minimalist decorating approach and you've got a creative eye then this is for you! At first I did not even notice the picture frame in the background. It's used to attach the branch to it. Cute idea!"

The iconic mushroom image is back! This folk-art-inspired sign from Amy Anderson is a great way to welcome guests into your home. The distressing gives it a flashback feel while the colors are perfect for a modern palette.
- Wooden scallop plaque by Walnut Hollow
- Mod Podge Gloss
- FolkArt Acrylic Paint – Sky Blue, Burnt Umber
- Scrapbook paper, 4 coordinating sheets – I used the Cosmo Cricket Earth Love collection
- Wood letters to spell "Welcome"
- Candle
- Scalloped scissors
- Prepare plaque.
- Paint the entire plaque and wood letters with Burnt Umber. Allow to dry.
- You are now going to distress the plaque. To do this, rub the candle on top the plaque in various places. Rub the candle on the edges as well.
- Paint the top of the plaque and the outside edge with Sky Blue. Paint two coats and allow to dry.
- When the paint is completely dry on the plaque, you will use the sandpaper to distress it. Lightly sand in the areas where you painted the wax, and the paint on top of the wax will rub away quickly. You'll see the Burnt Umber start to show through through. Sand less for subtle distressing and more for obvious distressing. Be careful not to sand too much – you don't want the unfinished wood to show through.
- Take the Cosmo Cricket paper and cut out a mushroom top shape. I did mine freehand. If you need to, sketch your mushroom top and stem on separate piece of paper first and use as a template. You should also cut the stem out at this time. I cut my stem out of three sheets of paper, and trimmed the overlapping edges using scalloped scissors.
- Mod Podge your mushroom down, starting with the stem. Mod Podge the bottom stem piece down first, then the rest of the stem, then the mushroom top. Allow to dry for 15 – 20 minutes.
- Glue down your wood letters with craft glue and allow to dry.
- Mod Podge the entire plaque and allow to dry. Give a second coat and allow to dry at least 24 hours before hanging.

- Abstract:
- Body Sensor Networks oer many applications in healthcare, well-being and entertainment. One of the emerging applications is recognizing activities of daily living. In this paper, we introduce a novel knowledge pattern named Emerging Sequential Pattern (ESP)|a sequential pattern that discovers signicant class dierences|to recognize both simple (i.e., sequential) and complex (i.e., interleaved and concurrent) activities. Based on ESPs, we build our complex activity models directly upon the sequential model to recognize both activity types. We conduct comprehensive empirical studies to evaluate and compare our solution with the state-of-the-art solutions. The results demonstrate that our approach achieves an overall accuracy of 91.89%, outperforming the existing solutions.

text: S.African police deployed to platinum belt to protect miners Mining by admin Last Updated: Tue, 13 May 2014 08:20:33 GMT 0 South African police deployed to platinum belt to protect miners The miners are expected to start returning to work this week, a police spokesman said, as producers pushed ahead with plans to resume production. Thulani Ngubane, the main police spokesman in the platinum mining town of Rustenburg northwest of Johannesburg, said police had set up park-and-ride facilities around the platinum mines to handle the arrivals. (READ MORE: Two workers killed at Lonmin mine in S.Africa: union) It is unclear how many workers will be coming back but the three big platinum firms say a majority of the 70,000 strikers they have contacted directly want to end the strike, the longest in South African mining history. "We are prepared for any eventuality," Ngubane said, although he said it would be difficult to provide security for the miners in the shanty towns that ring the main mines. Four miners have been killed in the area over the last three days. Members of the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) have been on strike at Anglo American Platinum, Impala Platinum and Lonmin since January pressing for higher wages but talks have gone nowhere. Amcu's leaders maintain that most of their striking members are not happy with the latest offer of up to 10 percent. (READ MORE: Mining companies accuse Amcu of stalling progress) The companies say that would raise the overall minimum pay package to 12,500 rand ($1,200) a month by July 2017, including cash allowances for things like housing, but Amcu says this is not enough. "We have remained so far apart. A deal with Amcu at this point in time seems completely out of the question," Amplats chief executive Chris Griffith told private radio station Talk Radio 702. Griffith added that most Amplats miners wanted to return to work after being on strike for four months. The producers have been presenting wage offers directly to employees after Amcu rejected them. Amcu had initially demanded an immediate increase to 12,500 rand in the basic wage, excluding allowances, but softened that in March to staggered increases that would amount to 12,500 rand within three or four years - still a third more than what the companies are offering in basic salaries.

Go Worlds Going Fast
Monday December 10, 2012
Inspired by the announcement of plans to end publication of Go World, the superb quarterly that published top-level instructional material and analysis of more than 1,000 of the most important games over the past 35 years (Endgame for Go World Magazine After 35 Years 11/16 EJ), The American Go Foundation is now offering its massive inventory of the last available issues for sale to all AGA members (shipping within the US only). All proceeds from the sale go directly to the AGF to support their work promoting go in the US. "The response has been stronger than expected," according to AGF VP Paul Barchilon. "We're already out of several rare issues, and running low on others." The Feng Yun Go School alone has ordered more than 500 copies. "We have given back issues of Go World as prizes to better students for years," Ms. Feng says. "For many, they have never seen anything like it. It's a real eye opener. The AGF is doing good work that benefits kids and go education in America, so supporting their mission with this purchase is also attractive. " Never seen GW? The AGF has secured exclusive rights to offer a sample issue for download. More than 30 issues are currently available, but act fast! A collection would make a perfect holiday gift for the go lover in your life. (Please feel free to print this and pass it along.)
Chen Yaoye to challenge Lee Sedol for Chunlan Cup
Monday December 10, 2012
Lee Sedol 9P (l), the lone Korean to make it to the semifinals of the Chunlan Cup,will defend his title against Chen Yaoye 9P (r), the number one ranked player in China.
Vying for his first international title, Chen was a child prodigy, becoming a pro at 10 years-old. He also broke a record for youngest player to become a 9-Dan professional, coincidentally after losing to Lee in the 2007 Asian TV Cup, the last time they played each other in an international final.
Lee, on the other hand, has won every major international title except the Ing Cup. Last year he defeated China's Xie He in the final to win the Chunlan Cup.
The quarter finals December 4-5 in Hangzhou, China included Jiang Weijie 9P, Piao Wenyao 9P, Kong Jie 9P, Won Seongjin 9P, Kim Jiseok 8P and Park Junghwan 9P.
Chen defeated Jiang Weije 9P, and Lee bested Kong Jie 9P in the semifinals on December 6th to earn their spots in the final, a best-of-3 match early next year, though the exact dates have not yet been set.
The Chunlan Cup is sponsored by Chunlan Group, a Chinese conglomerate with interests in the air conditioning, domestic appliance, automotive, finance and alternative energy industries. The tournament uses Chinese rules, with a komi of 7.5 points, and offers a prize of $150,000 USD to the winner.

Last Call for US–Cuba Friendship Games
Saturday December 8, 2012
Time is running out to join a group of US players traveling to Havana, Cuba February 15 – 21, 2013. The trip is being organized to play go with counterparts in the Cuban go community as part of a "people to people" trip conducted under a US Treasury Department license for such travel. "Using go as a way to forge links between people of different countries, especially countries whose relations are as fraught as Cuba and the US, is very much in line with the vision of Iwamoto-sensei," says AGA President Andy Okun. "This is a wonderful opportunity." Besides a go competition February 16-17, the trip will also feature an itinerary of cultural/educational activities such as a visit to Finca Vigia, Hemingway's home in Cuba. "It is still possible to add additional travelers, but it is necessary to act quickly," says organizer Robert Gilman. "Though there is not a definite deadline at this time, the longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to accommodate additional travelers." Email email@example.com for information.

The extensive application of GOOSE and sample data transmission in digital substations requires the high performance of communication networks. Traditional shared multicast communication mode is not suitable for digital substations because it may aggravate the network conflict and increase the receiving error. VLAN partition technology supporting IEEE802.1Q and GMRP networking technology are discussed and it is pointed out that both, the former together with the isolated broadcast domain method and the latter with the dynamic multicast registered technology, can be used in theory to avoid the overloaded multicast flow of digital substation transmission, while the latter is better because of its simple project implementation & maintenance and precise flow control.

Explicit fault analysis is the basis of protection for the bipolar HVDC Line. The characteristics of the initial values of traveling waves under various internal fault conditions are investigated on the basis of the symmetrical component analysis. The criteria of fault classification and faulty-pole selection are put forward based on the zero- and positive-sequence backward traveling waves, and an integrated traveling wave-based protection scheme is proposed. The simulations based on real-time digital simulation show that the proposed scheme can detect faults rapidly, determine the fault type effectively, and select the faulty pole correctly. © 2012 IEEE.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Denver Broncos quarterback, Peyton Manning, might be riding off into the sunset after his second Super Bowl title on Sunday night. His '' endorsement during his on-field post-game interview sent into a frenzy, generating millions of impressions and earned media.
Marshawn Lynch stole the spotlight for a brief second in the second half, with the Seattle Seahawks running back announcing his retirement in a single Tweet, which has since received over 200,000 Retweets.
Still, the most talked about part of Super Bowl 50 was the $5 million 30-second TV advertisement spots from brands such as Bud Light, T-Mobile, Mountain Dew, Doritos, Heinz and countless others.
Additionally, quietly joining the social conversation was Gatorade, who announced 100 million-plus views of its 'sponsored lens' for Snapchat. Led by tennis superstar Serena Williams, fans could dunk themselves with a Gatorade bath over their selfie.
With the multi-layered ways to activate around Super Bowl — beyond just TV — brands now have more options than ever. At the same time, those options, in turn, pose more questions about how to take advantage of audiences spanning 110-115 million viewers.
One thing is for certain, though: the Super Bowl advertising playbook will continue to evolve at a rapid pace. Those brands and agencies who carefully calculate the seven and eight-figure investments and internally ask the necessary questions are the ones who will receive a positive return on investment.
Since 1995, the cost of 30 seconds of airtime has escalated from $1 million to a reported $5 million for Super Bowl 50.
Lenny Stern, Co-Founder and Partner at New York-based advertising agency SS+K, typically classifies those brands into two buckets, the first of which is those companies who know why they're spending.
For companies such as Doritos, they're expected to make an appearance in some fashion during the Super Bowl. Others like Persil ProClean, LG and SunTrust made their first appearance on Sunday.
Historically, companies who are unveiling a new car, debuting an updated product or releasing a motion picture find themselves easily justifying their spend.
According to Stern, the second bucket includes those brands "desperately trying to break through" the cluttered advertising world for those four hours.
" 'We just have to make a lot of noise, and we're going to do something provocative and get people talking about us,' " said Stern of some brands' thinking.
Stern — whose company didn't have a spot this year but has worked with the likes of HBO and the Obama Administration in the past — reiterated that the media buy has to make sense economically and from an overall marketing standpoint.
Todd Alchin, Partner & Chief Creative Strategist at Noble People, handled the media buy and planning for PayPal this year, its first appearance on the big stage. He cautioned aggressive brand marketers from thinking that one single 30-second clip could change a company's fortunes overnight. Brands who allocate a majority of the year's marketing budget for the Super Bowl are naturally taking a huge risk.
On the flip side, one TV spot might be the most efficient spend, especially with 100 million-plus eyeballs watching. Trying to "replicate" that viewership, according to Alchin, is a "time-consuming task" and might take 8-10 individual spots to match the one.
"The playbook is expanding every year from what you're expected to do as a marketer involved in the Super Bowl," Alchin said. "…"What's important will always be important to brands and that's new customers."
A handful of media buyers and strategists have consulted with 'X brand' to secure a spot in the Big Game. You have bypassed the low seven-figure Snapchat 'sponsored lens' approach, and ambush marketing is out of the question — you're all-in on a Super Bowl buy.
Now, what?
Ten years ago, the playbook looked rather simple: grab an A-List celebrity, plug him/her into a spot and include humor or maybe a 'shock-and-awe' approach.
Today, the formula has been flipped on its head with the advent of social media platforms like YouTube and Snapchat, coupled with strategic ways to pre-release advertisements on social media and online followed by an entire public relations plan.
One of the remaining consistencies, though, is emotion. It's the one factor central to all advertising. Puppies. Talking babies. Monkeys. Horses. Heartfelt PSAs. They've all been utilized time and time again.
"Emotion is more powerful than logic," said Matthew Bull, Chief Creative Officer at New York-based agency, McGarryBowen. "…It's the most powerful way of persuading people."
The creative process may take a few weeks or a couple months. The back-and-forth conversations between creative and the brand ultimately lead to a finished creative brief followed by full-fledged production of the commercial. In some instances, two or three agencies might duel it out to see which ad spot runs on Game Day. It's a practice that is becoming slightly more common but is still rare in the marketplace, according to Bull.
Ultimately, the hope is that after months of brainstorming, planning and completing the final product, that high-quality work will appear in front of millions of viewers.
"We have a real responsibility to our audience to not only entertain them but also inform them," Bull said. "We have a job to do and sell our client's product and services, but we also have a responsibility to the audience to produce great content."
Anymore, it's not enough just to spend $5 million, incorporate cutting-edge graphics and insert a celebrity name endorsing a brand.
"The real brilliance is when you have consumers starting to engage in the conversation with you," Bull said. "…The magic is when consumers start responding to the work."
Added Stern: "What's the plan before, during and after? People are looking to start a conversation, whether it's on a second or third screen. That engagement piece is now part of the conversation."
As Stern said, the "eyeballs and expectations combined with the platforms now available and the real-time ability to create and engage makes it what used to be a one-dimensional spectacle multi-dimensional. As a result, it allows big and small participants, and people who play around the fringes to all have an equal opportunity."
Stern and SS+K have dubbed their analytical process, the 'New Rules of Engagement.'
How does the integrated approach among TV, social, traditional media and public relations build upon each other and lead to something bigger?
Provoking. Connecting. Sharing. Owning.
"To provoke, brands need to say something with enough pointed edge that grabs peoples' attention," Stern said. "…It needs to make people think. …It's got to have balls if you will."
Second, connection involves starting a conversation, adding to a current one or supporting one that is already happening; it can't do nothing. The third element involves driving people to share the content — verbally, socially and online.
Finally, consumers and sports fans, especially millennials, have to feel some ownership of the brand and the advertisement.
"People want to put their fingerprints on a product," Stern said. "They want to touch it, define it."
Taking those four factors into consideration and the full breadth of the ad's story — online, offline, before, during and after — can help a brand define their own meaning of 'success' as it pertains to engaging with their target audience and consumer.
It's why brands, over the last few years, have pre-released ads on YouTube and through social media in the hopes of generating buzz before the Big Game.
"You might not want the first airing of your brand to be in the hands of a morning talk show host to understand, evaluate and opine about how good or bad of an ad it is," Alchin said.
An advertisement that says nothing and does nothing for consumers loses out on the year's biggest spectacle.
"If you say, 'Just give me a great ad,' at best you're entertaining people," Stern said. "At worst, it's a waste of money."
The names of A-List talent in Super Bowl 50 advertisement spots stretched from Kevin Hart and Alec Baldwin to Drake and Missy Elliott to Dan Marino, Odell Beckham, Jr. and Serena Williams.
For Matthew Bull, Chief Creative Officer at McGarryBowen, it felt as though some brands didn't necessarily have a worthwhile idea so they plugged in a celebrity.
"Most ads felt like serious cases of over-trying," Bull said, "kind of like over-dressing for that big date."
Todd Alchin of Noble People said that Budweiser, Pepsi and Doritos "did the best" in terms of momentum coming out of their Super Bowl spot across social and online.
According to enterprise social media platform, Spredfast, the three brands were among the top five most talked about ads on Twitter on Sunday night.
Insurance company, Esurance, with its pre-game commercial generated 1.5 million Tweets, the most of any ad.
Robin Fitzgerald, the Creative Director for CP+B, led the creation of PayPal's spot and was in the brand's social media war room during the game. From the front-row perspective, Fitzgerald saw the brand trending at a much higher rate on social media versus others in the financial category.
Additionally, a few surprises that did well with some of the ad and media executives included the NFL and its 'Super Bowl Babies' commercial.
"I think the NFL is doing the best they can to position football as something that brings families together versus the headlines they get from domestic violence," Fitzgerald said. "The Super Bowl babies spot with the kids singing was a surprise favorite for me. It was an insight that showed a more human, loving, humorous side of the NFL that was unexpected and welcome."
Mountain Dew's quirky #PuppyMonkeyBaby commercial "produced the night's most polarizing and talked about effort," said Lenny Stern, Co-Founder and Partner at SS+K.
Yet, even with the months of planning and strategy combined with the millions of dollars invested in the spots, Peyton Manning had the most authentic endorsement of the night....even if he does have a minor business relationship with the brand.
"Score one for old school product endorsements," said Stern of Manning's post-game plug. "…No anatomy of an ad, no back story of a clever agency convincing a client to take a chance on ambitious work, no famous Oscar winning director, no high tech platform to extend the message. Just an old fashioned endorsement made at a magical moment of success, from the man of the moment, with authenticity and enthusiasm based on a universal truth everyone can identify with."

5 Things About Your Metabolism & Weight Loss
During weight loss we often refer to our metabolism and how it is working against us. If we're down in weight, our metabolism has "sped up" and if we're not losing, well then we say it's "slow." Really, our metabolism refers to all the processes in which our body burns energy, according to the National Library of Medicine1.
But you have the ability to control how your metabolism is working for you. However, your daily habits, gender, and health conditions all affect how your metabolism works.
So, here are some facts you need to know about your metabolism. Use them to your benefit when it comes to weight loss and see if this information actually helps you get the weight off faster.
Know Your Resting Metabolic Rate (or RMR)
While metabolism refers to all the energy your body uses, the resting metabolic rate refers to the amount of calories you're burning while doing absolutely nothing. This is an important figure to know while achieving weight loss. The good news though is that there are several ways to increase your RMR2 right now. A few of those ways are:
Getting more sleep. Not getting enough may seriously slow down metabolism.
Drinking coffee. Coffee can make your heart beat faster and work harder, which boosts metabolism for several hours.
Lifting weights. Building muscle requires a constant use of energy, as your muscles work to repair and build themselves even when you're sleeping.
To know exactly what your resting metabolic rate is, visit your doctor and have a calorimeter test done. While there are many calculators online to determine what your RMR is, they do not consider what your muscle to fat ratio is, which means they'll likely be inaccurate. The best way to get an accurate reading to help you lose weight is talking to your doctor.
Eating More Protein to Boost Your Metabolism
It seems to be the trend to say that weight loss requires eating more protein. But do you know why that is? Protein is the one nutrient that may actually help increase the amount of calories you burn. In 2012 the journal of the American Medical Association3 found that people who ate more calories than they needed tended to have higher RMRs when following a high protein diet as compared to those who followed a low-protein diet. To have this work in your favorite, choose lean and clean protein -- and we'd be remiss not to suggest our high protein 310 Shake to help you get in the extra protein your metabolism needs!
Build Muscle, Burn More Calories
The higher your muscle mass, the more calories you will burn -- even during rest. And you've probably heard this before, right? The European Journal of Clinical Nutrition backed up the statement, too finding that in nine months, strength training raised the resting metabolic rate4 in people by about 5 percent!
Your Health Changes Your Metabolism
Your overall health impacts how your metabolism operates and your RMR. For example, someone who deals with hypothyroidism may struggle to lose weight because their bodies do not make enough thyroid hormone. On the other hand, someone who has Graves' disease may make too much thyroid hormone and cause dangerous levels of weight loss. So if you're concerned about your health and your weight loss, it's certainly worth talking to your doctor about so that you can have any problems addressed.
Vitamin D May Help
We talk a lot about Vitamin D, especially when it comes to bone health. But it may be associated with your metabolism and weight change as well. In another study conducted by the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition5, they found that a vitamin D deficiency was associated with an increased risk of becoming obese.
What Should You Do About Your Metabolism Now?
The truth of the matter is that a large majority of people look in the mirror or go to button their favorite pants and decide it's time to lose weight. But you need to know there could be several factors you're working with here. And if the goal is to lose weight, wouldn't the long term goal be to keep it off?
To do that, don't walk in to this blindly. Consult with your doctor and have things checked out – have a conversation with them about the best route for you to get the weight off! Know how your metabolism works for you and how you can support it. You've got this… and we're here to help!
