You should call a business meeting only if you have a clear goal for the gathering, writes Geoffrey James. "If you can't pinpoint why you're calling the meeting, don't call one," he advises. Limit the duration of your meetings to no more than one hour, and make sure all of the participants have access to the necessary background information.

The dock for the iPod adds a line-our jack to the iPod. You can also connect a charger to the dock at the same time. The dock for the iPod Mini allows the same capability.
At least two Sony CD/MP3 players (the D-CJ01 and the D-NE710) feature a line-out jack, in addition to the standard headphone jack. The line-out jack uses a standard 1/8" stereo plug (the same as used for a set of headphones).
I hope that helps.
does anyone know if there are any mp3 and WMA players available with line-out ability?? i know they are available with line-in for recording, but i need line out abilities.

Garrett Temple has started in place of the injured Bradley Beal because the Wizards need him on the defensive end and John Wall needs him on the floor to occasionally free him from some of the ball-handling duties. Any offense that Temple provides is never expected but always accepted.
But with the Wizards down to just two healthy guards and Trevor Ariza toughing it out on a sore left knee, Temple had to add scoring to his list of responsibilities on Wednesday against Milwaukee; right below keeping Bucks shooting guard Monta Ellis from doing too much damage.
Temple contributed a much-needed 13 points on 6 of 7 shooting in 41 minutes for the Wizards and helped his team make up for the absence of Beal (sprained left ankle) and backup point guard A.J. Price (sore right groin) in a 106-93 victory.
"It felt good to help the team out," said Temple, who had scored a combined 12 points on 5 of 16 shooting in his previous seven games. "We had some guys banged up. A.J. couldn't go because of his groin, Brad still wasn't able to go because of his ankle and I knew I was going to have to play a pretty good amount of minutes."
Ellis still led the Bucks with 26 points, but Temple outscored his counterpart, 4-3, in the fourth quarter, making two layups during a 7-0 run to start the period as the Wizards rallied after blowing a 20-point second-half lead.
"Like Coach [Randy Wittman] said, we basically won the game twice," Temple said. "We were up 20 at one point and they made a big run. Monta hit a couple of tough shots and we were able to come back in the beginning of fourth to get some stops and get a good pace into the game, that was a big difference in the fourth quarter, being able to get pace.
"When we get pace, I'm a pretty good player in transition," Temple said. "I like to get steals, get some layups and knock down some open jumpers."
Temple hadn't scored in double figures since Feb. 4, when he had a season-high 15 points in a win over the Los Angeles Clippers and he hadn't played at least 40 minutes since playing a career-high 47 in a double-overtime loss to Brooklyn on Jan. 4 – before John Wall made his season debut. He had been used sparingly before Wittman decided to put him back into the starting lineup during a 104-87 win over the Charlotte Bobcats. But the Wizards are now 6-5 with Temple starting alongside Wall and they are 5-0 at home.
"When you get more time you contribute a little better," Martell Webster said. "He got a lot of time, so he was able to find his niche within the offense."

Here endeth a chapter in a phase of many in one's life;
a prospective lover who has caused much strife.
A love that started as love will, filled with joy and happiness
yet now has lost it's thrill!
The love of a one whose affection is dead,
Like an emotional bereavement, toying with your head,
though none has died!
So many tears have been shed,
As love every now and then finds a new flower bed to water!
It's a chapter when you have to pick up the pieces and start again.
It's a phase when you suffer, not knowing where to turn or what's happening.
It's a bereavement when you realise
Love has walked away and is no more.
It's a wrench to the heart when you've been there once before!
Well, must one try again, or take a vow of celibacy,
Become a recluse, fear what love can do?
Should hate seep up into the brain of one hard done by,
Yet again and again?
Does one live a lie and go through the motions, pretending that all is well?
Or does one act unfeeling and go out with vengeance in heart and mind'?
Seeing how many broken hearts one can leave behind; will this indeed compensate?
I guess not, as perseverance too brings rewards,
So patiently I'll wait!
Good will come and one will only look back vaguely,
remembering things in their lives from such a liason that was or was not appreciated!

The second time, I had asked if the warmish white wine I'd ordered could be chilled, or replaced with one that was colder. The maitre d' arrived at my table and coolly advised me that if I didn't like the temperature at which the refrigerator had been set then I should vacate the premises immediately.
In both cases, the response from the restaurateur was a little like passing a sentence of death by lethal injection for parking on a pelican crossing.
On the plus side, though, I've never been thrown out of a restaurant owned by Marco Pierre White, Gordon Ramsay or Nico Ladenis, which makes me think I'm doing something wrong. Or that I'm not doing something wrong.
The great French chef, Fernand Point at La Pyramide in Vienne, was more subtle than the never-darken-my-door-again crowd. Once, when a diner lit a cigarette immediately after his appetiser, Point promptly presented him with his bill.
Similarly, Ladenis once answered a potential diner's request as to whether he could bring his own wine with an invitation to bring his own waiters and food as well. In an entire chapter in his book My Gastronomy, the opinionated restaurateur-chef challenges the myth that the customer is always right, claiming that the revolution in eating habits has left some restaurants generations ahead of their customers.
Marco Pierre White put it down in black and white in his first and never- bettered cookbook, White Heat. "If I came to your house for dinner an hour late," he wrote, "criticised all your furniture and your wife's haircut and said all your opinions were stupid, how would you feel?"
But what is it that these temperamental, moody, headstrong or just plain bloody-minded restaurateurs hate about us? What do we do that is so infuriating that it can push them into such inhospitable rudeness as to show us the door?
An American magazine recently surveyed a group of prominent restaurateurs about the things that most annoyed them about their customers. All the usual suspects came up, including no-shows (those who book a table, and then don't turn up), people who want eight different bills for a table of eight, and people who insist on putting their meals together from the components of three or four different dishes.
Right up there with these hardened dining criminals are people who carry their drinks from the bar to the table, people who stand up at the table to greet friends or colleagues, and people who lean across the reception desk and point to their names in the reservations book. I confess to this last crime, if only in an effort to prove I have made a booking under the misspelt name of Mr Durkack, Mr Dorrock, Mr Bewrack or Mr Durex.
If you really want to test the patience of a restaurateur, you can always hang your coat over the back of your chair, help yourself to wine from the ice bucket, click your fingers to attract a waiter's attention and wander from table to table, greeting acquaintances. Better still, stay where you are and yell at them from your seat.
Then you could leave your mobile phone next to the pepper grinder, put your make-up on at the table, ask what's special tonight, tell the wine waiter every sin- gle little detail you know about the wine you've just ordered, and leave a cash tip under your plate.
It can't be long before restaurateurs take a leaf out of football's book, and introduce a new card or two to their usual rack of Diner's, Visa, Mastercard and Amex. When you do something a little silly, the waiter holds up a yellow card. When you do something seriously unacceptable, up comes a red card and you're out of there.
Not ideal, but there seems to be no other solution. Unless, of course, restaurateurs simply treat us as if we are guests in their homes, and we simply behave accordingly.

I feel everything.
I feel like the world is weighing me down.
Help, I'm about to drown.
I feel like the man is stripping me.
Help, I just want to be.
I feel like the sun is blinding my eyes.
Help, I need some goodbyes.
I feel like the moon is hiding my tears.
Help, I have to express my fears.
I feel everything...everything inside.
Help, I need my emotions to come outside.

Beginning in 1974, cancer research on the MIT campus was organized by the Center for Cancer Research (CCR), which held the distinction of a NCI designated Cancer Center since its inception. In 2008, the CCR was renamed the David H. Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research (Kl) at MIT in recognition of a major expansion of the MIT's commitment to inter-disciplinary cancer research as well as a significant donation by Mr. Koch. In launching the Kl, the outstanding tradition of cancer science represented by the MIT CCR has been joined by a new focus on cancer-relevant engineering. Kl Investigators, who are drawn from multiple departments in the MIT Schools of Science and Engineering, will study cancer in many ways, using highly collaborative and integrative approaches with a clearly defined mission to apply advanced science and new technologies in the fight against cancer. A state-of-the-art building to house the Kl is currently under construction to be completed in late 2010. The Kl building will house approximately 25 Center members at capacity. An additional 20 member of this Center have laboratories located in other MIT Departments. Due to expansion of the Kl faculty and expanded focus on inter-disciplinary cancer research, we have increased from three Programs to four and reorganized each Program. The Programs are: 1 Molecular Genetics and Immunology;2 Animal Models and Genetics;3 Cell and Systems Biology;4 Engineering Science and Technology. In addition, each Program will be overseen by co-leaders to draw on the strengths of our faculty in science and engineering. Respectively, Phillip Sharp and Dane Wittrup, Tyler Jacks and Angelika Amon, Richard Hynes and Michael Yaffe, and, Robert Langer and Sangeeta Bhatia lead the four Programs. Each program is organized around common interests of the members and overlapping long-range goals. There is extensive intra-programmatic interaction among the members of these programs and many examples of inter-programmatic interaction as well. Of the 43 members listed in this CCSG application, 24 will be located the Koch Institute building at opening. The others are located in the Koch Biology Building (5), the Whitehead Institute (7), the Division of Biological Engineering (2), the Broad Institute (2), the Department of Chemistry (2), and the Center for Environmental Health Sciences (1). The Koch Institute has been organized to apply a broad range of tools and systems in biological sciences, engineering and the physical sciences to advance our understanding of cancer development, progression and response to therapy. This research also holds great potential for new discoveries for improved cancer treatment, detection and monitoring.

Record Store Day preview: The MC5 will be kicking out the jams tomorrow
The MC5.
Plenty of amazing seven-inch singles will be available at Twist & Shout for Record Store Day other than the ones we've featured thus far in April -- stuff by Sublime, Taking Back Sunday, Tom Waits, Magnolia Electric Company, the Pretenders, the Jesus Lizard (a pack of nine singles, believe it or don't) and many more. For me, though, the big one is "Kick Out the Jams"/"Motor City is Burning" by the MC5. Packaged in a duplicate of the original picture sleeve, the 45 will be available for the first time at a standard retailer since 1969. This is the kind of item that makes supporting your friendly neighborhood independent record store even more fun tomorrow than it is the other 364 days of the year. See you there.
Note: Record Store Day is an annual event honoring independent record stores -- a onetime retail staple that's becoming an endangered species. In an effort to preserve this important cultural resource, dozens of artists are lending their support to this year's bash on Saturday, April 18, by issuing exclusive material, including loads of unique seven-inch singles, that can only be found at retailers such as Twist & Shout, 2508 E. Colfax -- ground zero for the celebration in Denver. Each weekday between now and then, we'll feature a different 45 that's sure to make your collection cooler. Learn more at the Record Store Day website or the Twist & Shout home page.

L'Oréal Paris Voluminous Original Mascara Reviews
Great Mascara for the PriceThis mascara does not clump and really pumps up my lashes. I tried other, more expensive, brands and did not like them as much as this product. — 9 years agoaecote | 5 reviews
Does it AllThis lenghtens, thickens, and brings out your beautiful eyes! — 9 years agoMaryEden | 3 reviews
The best!I have recently been mascara enraged! I purchased several different brands in many different price ranges and none of them were worth squat! They clumped, they didn't coat, or didn't extend, etc. I was aggravated with expensive brands that didn't deliver. Then I saw a promotional (two for the price of one) on Voluminous and I purchased it just for the heck of it. I kept one and gave the other to m...read morey daughter - she was laughing that I had given her "cheap priced" mascara. We both tried and it and we were hooked! This product really delivers! It is inexpensive and best of all it works! It coats my lashes perfectly making them longer and fuller, plus clumping is minimal. — 9 years agodaphne58 | 3 reviews

One of the Best Drugstore Mascaras..I actually find myself buying drugstore brand mascaras more frequently. The products that are available in the drugstores have really stepped up their game. I love this. I have it in the carbon black. It is inky, inky black and really does the job.It does start to clump a bit but nothing too bad. It does not run and stays put all day. Highly recommend!! — 9 years agoalixee | 3 reviews

love this mascaraI love this mascara alot! but it tends to clump up on my lashes but its nothin to add an extra fix with my fingers, I love the end result! — 9 years agowickedbatman | 33 reviews
Great mascara!Mascaras are a tough product...they either clump or do not distribute enough product on lashes. This one is perfectly balanced. The only thing is that it does not last very long...it's great when new, but after a few weeks, will begin to clump. I guess it's so they sell more? — 9 years agochellethebelle | 4 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This

Knowledge is key to using your analytic results to their fullest. The Spectrum Agronomic Library provides you with useful information that will help you to better understand the complex science of agronomy. Our agronomists will be continually adding original and reprinted articles, so check the library regularly for new information.
The PSNT is a soil test for nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) developed for use at the 4 to 6 leaf stage of corn to help in making more accurate N fertilizer recommendations at sidedressing time. The test, designed by Dr. Fred Magdoff at the University of Vermont, was initially developed to help in estimating the amount of N available where manure or other organic wastes have been applied, or corn is grown in rotation with a forage legume. The PSNT was initially developed to identify fields that would not be expected to respond to additional N. The test uses the NO3-N content of the top foot of soil as an estimate of the amount of N available to the crop. Research in a number of states has confirmed that this test can be useful in managing N on corn. Work in Massachusetts, California and Florida has also shown the PSNT to be useful for some vegetable crops. By far, the major use of PSNT is in the production of field corn, which is the focus of this paper.
As the PSNT has been adopted by agriculture, there has been a great demand to make calibrated N recommendations based on the test results. In other words, agronomists have been asked to make N recommendations that are adjusted for, or inversely proportional to the amount of residual NO3-N found in the soil. Given that the original purpose of the PSNT was simply to identify soils that were non-responsive to N, we may be asking a lot of this test by using it to accurately calibrate soil N status levels or N recommendations. However, some progress in this area has occurred. There is agreement on the general range of soil NO3-N that is considered critical for adequate corn growth without additional N applications. This range is from 21 to 30 ppm NO3-N in the top 12 inches of the soil when the corn is in the 4 to 6 leaf stage. Many Universities consider the critical NO3-N value to be 25 ppm.
There is less agreement on how much supplemental N to recommend when the PSNT result is between zero and the critical level. In other words, how do we calibrate N recommendations to PSNT results? Most of us understand that agronomists often disagree on fertilizer recommendations, and the PSNT is no exception. There is some research that supports higher N recommendations when the PSNT result is low and lower recommendations when the result is closer to the critical level. However, many factors of weather, soil conditions, corn hybrid, crop management, and others may change crop response to a particular PSNT level. It is not within the scope of this paper to thoroughly discuss all of the factors that can influence the reliability of N recommendations based on PSNT results. However, like all soil testing, the PSNT should be used as a guide, not a guarantee. Neither the PSNT result nor the N recommendation should be over-simplified to a simple recipe. The PSNT is simply one part of the complicated process of crop management.
Another occasional point of confusion occurs when we try to reconcile the ppm of NO3-N with the amount of N required by a corn crop, or the amount of N applied prior to taking the PSNT sample. The PSNT result is an "index" of available N, not a calculation factor. You should not try to perform calculations to reconcile the amount of N applied or crop uptake with PSNT results, because they will not likely "add up". We must keep in mind that a crop typically utilizes N from below the 12 inch sampling depth; it will receive N from mineralizing soil organic matter; it may lose access to N due to denitrification or leaching later in the season; or other factors may change the N available to the crop, either before or after the PSNT is taken.
It is common to hear people discuss fertilizer recommendations in terms of crop removal, plus or minus soil test buildup as if they were somehow disconnected from each other. In fact, they are two aspects of the same subject. Most of us fall into the habit of thinking that we are fertilizing plants. Except for foliar fertilizer or tree trunk injection, we do not fertilize plants… we fertilize soil. Because of this, soil chemistry will determine how much of the applied nutrients the plants will be able to take up. If a soil is low in phosphorus (P) or potassium (K), it will tie-up or "fix" much of the applied fertilizer P and K (P2O5 and K2O) into forms that are not available to the plants. This nutrient fixation is simply another way of saying that the soil is trying to build itself up in these nutrients… whether that is your intention or not. The soil is a reservoir for the nutrients that have been applied or generated by other means over the years. The nutrients that a plant gets in any one season are likely to be ones that have been in the soil for many years. Therefore you can think of fertilization as putting nutrients into one side of a reservoir while the plants are taking them out of another end. What happens inside of this nutrient reservoir is soil chemistry and microbiology. These processes, along with weather, determine how much access the plants have to the nutrients within the reservoir.
Application of collected municipal leaves to agricultural land improves soil quality and provides a solution to a disposal problem. Farmers are permitted (New Jersey Register, NJAC 7:26, 1.12. Nov. 7, 1988) to apply up to a 6-inch layer of leaves annually. Application at this rate, which is equivalent to approximately 800 cubic yards/acre or 20 tons/acre of dry matter. This will increase soil organic matter content, and improve soil tilth and water holding capacity.
A chemical analysis of 100 municipal leaf samples collected from across New Jersey shows that leaves are a valuable source of all crop nutrients (Table 1). Although nutrient concentration values vary considerably, the application of 20 ton/acre of leaves would add on average 400 pounds of nitrogen, 40 pounds of phosphorus, and 152 pounds of potassium. Assuming values of $.30/pound N, $.23/pound P, and $.18/pound K, the nutrients from this example are worth $156.56.
Application of leaves at 20 ton/acre would also add on average 656 pounds of calcium, 96 pounds of magnesium, 44 pounds of sulfur, 1.5 pounds of boron, 58 pounds of iron, 22 pounds of manganese, 50 pounds of chloride, 4 pounds of sodium, 0.3 pounds of copper, and 3 pounds of zinc. The actual amounts of nutrients applied can vary considerably as shown by the concentration ranges in Table 1.
Although leaves add agronomically significant amounts of nutrients, only a portion of the nutrients are available immediately after application for use by the crop. The increase in the soils total nutrient content will, however, contribute to the long term fertility of the soil as the nutrients are released over time.
Much of the nutrients in leaves are part of the organic structure of the plant tissue and require microbial decomposition to release them. The carbon-nitrogen ratio of an organic material undergoing decomposition is an important indicator factor in the rate of release of its nitrogen in available form. The average carbon nitrogen ratio of leaf waste is 50 and it ranges from 27 to 72. For comparison, the carbon-nitrogen ratio of compost is generally about 25.
The abundant carbon (carbohydrates which provide energy) content of leaves leads to extensive development of fungi and bacteria in the soil which uses up the supply of available nitrogen for the production of microbial cell tissue. As decay proceeds, the carbon-nitrogen ratio decreases and some of the nitrogen becomes available to plants. Because of the high carbon content of raw leaves relative to their nitrogen content, there will likely be very little of the organic nitrogen in leaves available to crops for a period of time after application. Observations of crops (including legumes) planted on soil to which leaves have been applied indicate that plants suffer from a temporary N deficiency unless additional N fertilizer is added.
Crops grown on soils the year after leaf application likely will need additional N fertilizer. Legume crops, such as soybean, may benefit from 20 to 30 pounds of starter N banded beside the row at planting. This will supply a readily available N source to be used by the legume until it forms nodules to supply N by fixation. An additional 50 to 100 lbs of N fertilizer is recommended for corn grown the first year after leaf application. The additional fertilizer that is required increases the cost of crop production on the soil the first year after an application of leaves.
The amounts of P, K, and other nutrients present in leaves are not easily translated into nutrient credits that may be used to reduce fertilizer application. These nutrients are relatively stable in soil and can be monitored simply through soil testing. As soil fertility levels increase as a result of leaf applications, take credit for these nutrients by fertilizing accordingly.
Of the three major nutrients, potassium is the most easily released from leaves and is the most readily available to crops in the first year after leaf waste application. A minimum nutrient credit of 50 lbs K2O per acre may be used for 20 tons of leaves.
Application of collected municipal leaves to soil should not significantly change its agricultural limestone requirement. Three years of municipal leaf application caused no decrease in the soil pH compared to unamended soils.

The label not only aims to shine on the national scene, but also to conquer the first ranks on an international scale. As a way of spreading Moroccan and African cultures and sounds , Toubkal Records is first and foremost one of the first Moroccan labels trying to gain a place amongst the biggest labels on the international scale. The goal we're aiming at is one of sharing wonderful emotions and sensations through the singular beauty of music , to develop a clean musical culture , and to allow the most talented artists to have their very first appearance on the international scene (by mixing different styles such as the minimal, House, Progressive & Electro). Our requirements will be very strict. The selection criteria will let us take only the best tracks, to forge an almost-perfect image of ourselves to all. The label will be known for its music quality, not its quantity. The name of the label is closely related to the creators origins and it remains very symbolic.

There Is Hope
"When you hear the hard news, there are two diverging roads from which to choose. One's despair—don't go there. There is hope!" I wrote those lyrics as part of a song that shares what I've learned through a lengthy battle with cancer. Today I was talking with a thirty-year-old husband whose wife just found out she has breast cancer. As I strived to give him comfort and counsel, what I shared can be summed up in these words: Because of God, there is hope.
Leading Somewhere Good
A friend and I once did an eight-day hike from Lindisfarne Island to Durham in north England. We went to learn about the godly men and women who had brought Christianity to the region—people like Aidan, Cuthbert, and Bede. I also took the pilgrimage because I was searching for direction.
The Laingsburg flood of 1981 was the worst of its kind in South African history. In two days nearly half a meter (almost 17 inches) of rain fell, 104 people died, and 184 houses were destroyed. The town of Laingsburg was built close to the "dry river bed" of the Buffalo River. What the town engineers failed to realize, however, is that this relatively small river floods its banks every 100 years or so. Although the local farmers were initially grateful for the rain, their relief soon turned to dread as a six-meter (almost twenty-foot) wall of water rushed through the town, carrying with it people, animals, houses, and belongings.
Tears in a Bottle
Trust. Scripture reveals that we can trust God in all things (Proverbs 3:5), but it can still be difficult at times. We tell ourselves, Trust! But we lack hope. We tell ourselves, God will deal with it! But then we falter and engage in worry.
Time to Wait
Are we there yet?" This timeless question could either trigger a benevolent smile or produce a scowl on the face of a harassed and patience-worn parent. Like a small child, we want what we want, and we want it now. I can only imagine how Noah felt each time he peered hopefully out of the ark, only to see the dove he'd sent to find dry land returning to the vessel. Yet another seven days . . .
Perfect Peace
My husband's job offer was a welcome answer to prayer, allowing him to spend more time with our family. It required a big move though—the third in 7 years. His work had previously taken us to the Middle East and South Africa, and now, with the prospect of returning to England, we felt cautiously excited. In the midst of all the logistics, important decisions, piles of paperwork that had to be completed, and the packing of all our belongings into shipping boxes, we also had an overwhelming sense of God's "perfect peace."
Real Faith
I attended a boarding school in Nigeria where the older students ruled over all of us younger students. Once, I misplaced a bowl that belonged to a rather cranky older student. Having been given the ultimatum to find and return the bowl by the next morning, I crawled into bed with a heart full of dread. I whispered a prayer asking God for help before dropping into a troubled sleep. Imagine my awe the next day when the bowl mysteriously showed up in the student's drawer!
Needs Met
I'm a late convert to the Lord's Prayer. Unlike others, I didn't grow up reciting it regularly at church or school. Only recently have I discovered its power as a daily prayer. And when I get to the line "Give us today the food we need" (Matthew 6:11), three things strike me:
New Address?
Move to a new home, or stay at the old address? This question filled my mind for several days as my husband and I discussed the possibilities. A handful of problems were obvious when we toured a prospective home. For instance, a pipe in the basement jutted up from the floor into the middle of a room. And there was an odd odor in the cellar. Still, there were new cupboards and beautiful windows that would let sunlight pour in.
On September 11, 2001, Todd Beamer was one of 44 people who were killed when United Airlines Flight 93 crashed after being hijacked by al-Qaeda terrorists.
When my sister left a high-paying government job after 14 years, many people were surprised. I believe God led her to the job (a long story), used it to train and equip her (another long story), and called her away from it (yet another lengthy tale). In fact, she had to leave her work with no new job in place. There wasn't time to ponder, because she had loads of projects to finish and hand over. Yet, by God's grace, she didn't fret. She was fully convinced that God her Shepherd would provide for her (Psalm 23:1).
Is Jesus Enough?
During the First World War, Oswald Chambers was walking past a woman's house accompanied by his wife, Biddy. The woman was very sick, and Biddy asked, "I wonder what God is going to do?" Chambers replied, in essence, that he was more concerned about who God is versus what He would choose to do. Now these weren't the words of a man indifferent to the suffering of another person. He merely spoke of his total reliance on the personality and character of God, rather than merely hoping for what He might do. Though concerned for the woman and her condition, the character of his Creator was enough for Chambers to rest in what would happen next.
Truly Strong
Mr. Strong, along with all the Mr. Men children's books written by Roger Hargreaves, is still a firm favorite in our home. Following a makeover in 2008, Mr. Strong is no longer square; he now has has broader shoulders, a narrower waist, and bulging biceps, but he remains the strongest person in the world. The source of his incredible strength? It comes from all the eggs he eats! The protein in eggs is rich in leucine, an essential amino acid that plays an important role in the way muscles use glucose—contributing to strength, satisfying hunger, and providing a source of lasting energy.
Hand of God
Lorenzo Quinn's 900-pound aluminum sculpture called "Hand of God" features a gigantic open hand with a man seated on the highest part of an upturned palm. The man appears to be troubled and his posture reflects deep discouragement. But the hand that holds him up is much larger than he is.
Trudging On
Kellie Haddock is a courageous woman I've known of and admired for more than a decade. In 2004, I first read the blog she penned following a tragic car accident that took the life of her husband and left her baby, Eli, with permanent injuries.
