A few people asked for ways to use chocolate extract. It's a new product for me too, but based on the brownies from yesterday and the cookies I baked this morning, I think chocolate extract would enhance just about anything with chocolate. As for today's chocolate extract infused treat, I went with this simple cookie.
The recipe evolved from a newly discovered chocolate chip cookie recipe in Fuzz's Williams Sonoma Kids Cookbook. The traditional version (which is excellent despite what seems like an awful lot of baking powder) is the same as below sans cocoa powder and chocolate extract. The combination of butter and shortening gives it a thick shell, chewy and firm center and all-around great structure, and you really can taste the chocolate extract! It doesn't overpower any of the other chocolate, but it adds a little extra hint of cocoa flavor you catch on the first few bites of cookie.
- 1 cup (4.5 oz) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (seems like a lot, but it worked)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons Hershey's Dark (Dutch) cocoa powder
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 4 tablespoons vegetable shortening
- 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 teaspoon vanilla
- 3/4 teaspoon chocolate extract
- 1 1/3 cup extra dark or dark chocolate chips (good quality)
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Have ready two ungreased baking sheets.
- Mix the flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa powder together in a bowl and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, shortening, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Using a electric mixer, beat the mixture until it's smooth. Add the egg, vanilla and chocolate extract and continue to beat on medium speed until well blended. Add the flour mixture. Stir until the flour is almost mixed in. Pour in the chips and stir until completely blended.
- Using a packed tablespoon, drop the batter into mounts on the baking sheets spacing mounds about 2 inches apart. Bake one sheet at a time one center rack for 12-14 minutes or until cookies appear set. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for about 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Makes about 27 cookies

Thread: Calling to missing super(); ??
Calling to missing super(); ??
i was reading over the code on this link
and if you look at the constructor its making a call to its super class constructor which i assume is calling the object classes constructor, but whats the point of calling the objects class constructor?
is this common practice?Last edited by alacn; 08-16-2010 at 06:39 AM.

I think it is a common practice in programming. If we call the parent constructor that mean we want our object initialization to include what the parent does. Then we add a specific constructor code for our new class.

Pretty much I wanna know if there's an arena system put in place (ladders, rewards based on rank etc) much like WoW's. Also I wanna know if the combat 'fluidity' is like WoW's. I'm pretty sure these questions do not break the NDA.
Cheers guys.

this game sucks
Short answer: No.
Long answer: There will be no ranked PvP at launch.
Ew really???? I was actually getting excited for SWTOR, but now that they're going to pull a blizzard and give PvE 90% of the attention, im having second thoughts... i already quit WoW since its PvP sucks... maybe GW2 will have some serious PvP... who knows.
Speaking mostly about endgame here, they're not giving PvE more attention than PvP. Just like they're not giving PvP more attention than PvE. They are a brand new MMO, and are giving the most attention in SWTOR 1.0 to the leveling experience.
They do have some endgame. But it should in no way be considered the end of their endgame. Future patches will bring more. Much more.
who needs Arenas when you have Huttball?!
*Switches to John Madden voice*
<Insert something witty and humorous here>
There will be ranked systems. We don't know when though.
And I'm putting out the warning for the thread right now:
Don't attack and slam eachother for wanting or not wanting things in the game. Opinions can differ, but all discussion needs to be constructive.
My SWTOR guild: www.radguild.com
USA West Coast PvP server: The Bastion
Get your Game of Thrones on at Winteriscoming.net
Pretty much what I want is a ranking/ladder system whether it be open world or small group play with rewards based on how well you do. MMO gaming for me is being better than everyone else and getting gear which reflects that; but that's probably just my incredibly competitive side speaking :P
this game sucks
There is still too much wrong in SWTOR's PvP gameplay to even consider arena atm.
Arenas were one of the worst things to happen to WoW.
You know what is better than drinking a beer? Brewing your own beer. And then drinking it. And then... Drinking another beer. And then, punching somebody in the snout! That's what!
So because you don't enjoy it, they should remove arenas from the MMO genre completely? MMO's have very unique combat and arena's are the only way to show skill and get rewarded accordingly.
Also if a mage is OP in arena, they'd be OP in BG's and open world pvp? Or just because it's in a BG they're automatically balanced. Enough with this 'balance' crap. If the game was balanced it would be boring.

I prefer PvE so doesn't bother me! Sure they'll add it at some point though, they need some stuff to bring out over time as well if everything appears at launch it'll leave nothing for people to want or whatever.
Whats skillful in taking a person from 100% to 0 in a stun.
I'm afraid its not a valid point, as players don't pick players based on skill. Skill is a secondary consideration, with your group setup being first.
I think you might need to retake mathematics (even if its just the basics), so that you might be better able to tally up your teammates. If you are the one person being clusterfucked, you are likely :
a) A healer
b) Not focusing on moving with your team
c) The only person on your side
And yes, I could be worse I could be a lot worse. Fortunately, I'm not.
Rated Warzones is confirmed at launch.

The Horse Forum
- Hoof Care
- - Outward pointing hooves--Just have a few questions
Outward pointing hooves--Just have a few questions So I'm horse shopping... AGAIN. -.- But I found a REALLY cute 16.3hh 9yo TB gelding in my area. I like the looks of him, he is very stocky and would make a very pretty dressage horse. I emailed the owner and he said that his feet point outward, but aside from that he has never been lame and is healthy. So is there a way to kind of correct it with trimming/shoeing? Or should I just not worry about it? Would it interfere with him collecting or jumping? Would I get marked down at a show for it? Any info would be great!! Thanks |
Poor lower limb conformation can increase the occurence of osteoarthritis, especially ringbone. I would advise X-raying the lower limbs of all 4 legs as part of your pre-purchase exam... a 9 y/o with this kind of conformation that has been ridden regularily would most likely already be showing arthritic changes related to his conformation. Why else would the horse be for sale?? There is always a reason! Good luck! |
Given that the seller felt it important to mention the problem, there's fair reason to presume the defect is significant. It's a buyers market and there are lots of good horses available. Quote:
Cheers, Mark |
It's really hard to say anything on the internet because we have no idea what the horse actually looks like. Some people say their horse has a flaw and you can barely see it. Other horses really have bad limb conformation. Without seeing the horse no one can really speculate on his show ring prospects. Yes, the more perfect conformation the better, but every horse (that I have ever met) has slight deviations here and there. Even a "perfect" horse may not be perfect for all disciplines. That is what I mean about conformation being subjective. It depends on what you want to do with the horse and how bad his faults are. And how high you expect to go in the show world. I would be careful about front end problems on a horse that is expected to jump though. |
I'm in the market for a free project horse, so my options are a little limited. The horse is for sale so cheap because the market in my area sucks and because the guy just don't want to have the horse anymore, he isn't riding him (other things going on in life). I am going to try to go see him tomorrow morning, I will get pictures/videos that I can post. (: |
Well, if it's a nice horse, you can't hardly look a gift horse in the mouth! Personally, my expectations do differ with the price of the horse. My $2000 horse is near perfect (training/disposition wise) and my $500 horse isn't perfect but I love her to death. Best of luck! :-) |
A 9 y/o (who sells a 9 y/o - that is a horse's prime!!) that is for sale with the seller disclosing "conformation issues" right off the bat is likely not as spry as he was a few years ago and the seller has realized this is soon going to show up as a lameness issue. There is always a reason the horse is for sale - it is the buyers job to figure out why and then decide if they can deal with the issues present in the horse. "Perfect" or close-to-it horses rarely come up for sale and when they do it's for a lot of money. I have also never bought a perfect horse with perfect conformation. I pick and choose the behavioral and conformational limitations that I can deal with. X-raying the horse prior to purchase is the only way to tell if there are issues present and if they are managable. |
One of my clients recently dropped $8,000 in vet costs on their "free" horse. Cheers, Mark |
I'm aware. LOL! But you get what I mean. I could also get an 8k horse and drop 5 grand on it within the first month of owning it in vet bills. Horses are one big, expensive risk, but taking risks is part of life. (: I'm a young rider, gotta work with what I got!! |

Every day for up to 10 minutes near the London Stock Exchange, someone blocks signals from the global positioning system (GPS) network of satellites. Navigation systems in cars stop working and time stamps on trades made in financial institutions can be affected.
The incidents are not a cyberattack by a foreign power, though. The most likely culprit, according to Charles Curry, whose firm Chronos Technology covertly monitors such events, is a delivery driver dodging his bosses' attempts to track him.
The signals are weak. Curry likens them to a 20-watt light bulb viewed from 12,000 miles. And the jammers are cheap: A driver can buy a dashboard model for about $78. They are a growing menace.
The bubbles of electromagnetic noise they create interfere with legitimate GPS users. They can disrupt civil aviation and kill mobile-phone signals, too. In the United States their sale and use is banned. In Britain they are illegal for civilians to use deliberately, but not, yet, to buy. But Ofcom, a regulator, is mulling a ban. In recent years Australian officials have destroyed hundreds of jammers.
In the right (or wrong) hands, they are potential weapons. Britain's armed services test the devices in the Brecon Beacons in Wales, a military training area. North Korea uses big truck-mounted versions to block GPS signals in South Korea. Starting with a four-day burst in August 2010, the attacks, which come from three positions inside the North, have lengthened. In early 2012 they ran for 16 days, causing 1,016 aircraft and 254 ships to report disruption.
Curry worries that criminals or terrorists could knock out GPS for an entire city or shipping lane anywhere in a flash. Even without North Korean-sized contraptions, the jamming can be substantial. Suitcase-sized devices on sale on the Internet claim a range of 300 to 1,000 meters.
Malfunctioning satellites and natural interference from solar activity have hit GPS signals and sent ships off course. David Last, a navigation expert, says an accidental power cut, perhaps caused by a jammer taken on board a car ferry, could cause a shipwreck.
Generating a false signal — spoofing — is another threat. In December 2011 Iran said it had spoofed an American drone before capturing it (most experts dismiss the claim). So far effective spoofing seems confined to laboratories, but Last says some governments are already taking countermeasures.
One solution is a different means of navigation. In April South Korea announced plans for a network of 43 eLORAN (enhanced long-range navigation) ground-based radio towers, based on technology first used in World War II. It uses a far stronger signal than GPS, and should give pilots and ships' captains a safer alternative by 2016. With Chinese and Russian help, South Korea hopes to expand coverage across the region.
Britain's General Lighthouse Authorities (GLA) are following suit with seven new eLORAN stations. Martin Bransby, an engineer with the GLA, says this will replace visual navigation as the main backup for GPS. It will be working by mid-2014. By 2019 coverage should reach all big British ports.
U.S. military-research agency DARPA has an experimental "single-chip timing and inertial measurement unit" (TIMU). When finished, according to the project's boss, Andrei Shkel, it will use tiny gyroscopes and accelerometers to track its position without using satellites or radio towers. America's White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico is installing a "Non-GPS Based Positioning System," using ground-based antenna to provide centimeter-level positioning over 2,500 square miles.
A new version of the U.S. Air Force's bunker-busting bomb, designed in part to destroy Iranian nuclear facilities, includes technology to prevent defenders from blocking its satellite-based guidance systems.
But for many users, GPS and other space-based navigation systems remain indispensable and ubiquitous. They are also vulnerable. For those whose lives or livelihoods depend on knowing where they are, more resilient substitutes cannot come fast enough.

Specific enzymatic detection of membrane-bound antigens.
Western Blotting
Bio-Rad offers an extensive line of products for detection of proteins on western blots.
Blotting Membranes for Proteins
Bio-Rad's comprehensive line of blotting membranes are available in rolls or in sheets cut to fit the Mini-PROTEAN® Tetra blotting module. Membranes are also available in preassembled blotting membrane/filter paper sandwiches.
The 0.45 µm nitrocellulose membrane is most commonly used as a transfer medium for proteins. For transfer of low molecular weight proteins (<15,000), the 0.2 µm nitrocellulose membrane provides better sensitivity, especially with immunodetection assays.
Protein Blotting Buffers and Detection Kits
Get the essential reagents to perform colorimetric detection of proteins on western blots with the convenience of premixed buffers and enzyme substrate kits. Select from a combination of binding conjugates and color detection reagents, including alkaline phosphatase (AP)- or horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibodies and HRP-conjugated protein A or protein G.

(NaturalNews) It will monitor your calorie intake, show from where your food was sourced, and even let you know when the food in your fridge is about to go bad -- these are some of the enticing claims made by the developers of a new system that embeds edible radio frequency identification (RFID) chips directly into food. Its creators insist the technology will revolutionize the way humans eat for the better, but critical-thinking onlookers will recognize the ploy as just another way to track and control human behavior.
Developed by Hannes Harms from the Royal College of Art in London, the "NutriSmart" system is based on the idea that RFID wafers injected directly into food can help better track the food supply chain, further automate the supermarket shopping experience, and simplify the eating experience by programming data into food so that humans essentially do not have to think about what they are
The technology makes both eating and dealing with food in general mindless, as a person simply needs to plop an RFID-embedded food item onto a special RFID-laced plate, which then tells the person all about the item and how much of it to eat. RFID ovens and microwaves also eliminate having to think about how long to cook an RFID food item -- simply put it in the RFID microwave, oven, or toaster, and the machine will know exactly how long to cook the item.
As interesting and novel as this might sound, such technology is actually quite frightening when taken to its logical ends. NaturalNews previously warned that mad scientists have already developed edible RFID tags for use in pharmaceutical drugs (http://www.naturalnews.com/028663_h...). These tags, of course, can and will likely be used to monitor patients' compliance with doctors orders, and alert authorities if a patient refuses to take certain pills as prescribed.
And if such technology also ends up in food, it is safe to assume that evil powers will seek to control the food supply with it, as well as monitor the types of food people eat. In other words, if authorities one day decide that vitamin and mineral supplements are off limits, which is what is currently happening in Europe (http://www.naturalnews.com/032389_h...), it is plausible that RFID technology can assess illegal intake of such nutrients, and immediately send this data to the appropriate enforcement agencies.
This 1984-esque scenario appears to be more than just science fiction -- it is unfolding before our eyes just a little bit more every single day. And the NutriSmart system is just another piece of evidence that those in power wish to micromanage every single aspect of our lives, from the drugs we take to the foods we eat.

Center-of-momentum frame
In physics, the center-of-momentum frame (zero-momentum frame, or COM frame) of a system is the unique (up to velocity but not origin) inertial frame in which the total momentum of the system vanishes. The center of momentum of a system is not a location (but a collection of relative momenta/velocities). Thus "center of momentum" means "center-of-momentum frame" and is a short form of this phrase.[1]
A special case of the center-of-momentum frame is the center-of-mass frame: an inertial frame in which the center of mass (which is a physical point) remains at the origin. In all COM frames, the center of mass is at rest, but it is not necessarily at the origin of the coordinate system.
In special relativity, the COM frame is necessarily unique only when the system is isolated.
The center of momentum frame is defined as the inertial frame in which the sum over the linear momentum of each particle vanishes. Let S denote the laboratory reference system and S′ denote the center-of-momentum reference frame. Using a galilean transformation, the particle velocity in S′ is
is the velocity of the mass center. The total momentum in the center-of-momentum system then vanishes:
Also, the total energy of the system is the minimal energy as seen from all inertial reference frames.
Special relativity[edit]
In relativity, COM frame exists for an isolated massive system. This is a consequence of Noether's theorem. In the COM frame the total energy of the system is the rest energy, and this quantity (when divided by the factor c2, where c is the speed of light) gives the rest mass (invariant mass) of the system:
The invariant mass of the system is given in any inertial frame by the relativistic invariant relation
but for zero momentum the momentum term (p/c)2 vanishes and thus the total energy coincides with the rest energy.
Systems that have nonzero energy but zero rest mass (such as photons moving in a single direction, or equivalently, plane electromagnetic waves) do not have COM frames, because there is no frame in which they have zero net momentum. Due to the invariance of the speed of light, such massless systems must travel at the speed of light in any frame, and therefore always possess a net momentum magnitude that is equal to their energy divided by the speed of light:
Two-body problem[edit]
An example of the usage of this frame is given below – in a two-body collision, not necessarily elastic (where kinetic energy is conserved). The COM frame can be used to find the momentum of the particles much easier than in a lab frame: the frame where the measurement or calculation is done. The situation is analyzed using Galilean transformations and conservation of momentum (for generality, rather than kinetic energies alone), for two particles of mass m1 and m2, moving at initial velocities (before collision) u1 and u2 respectively. The transformations are applied to take the velocity of the frame from the velocity of each particle from the lab frame (unprimed quantities) to the COM frame (primed quantities):[1]
where V is the velocity of the COM frame. Since V is the velocity of the COM, i.e. the time derivative of the COM location R (position of the center of mass of the system):[2]
so at the origin of the COM frame, R = 0, this implies
The same results can be obtained by applying momentum conservation in the lab frame, where the momenta are p1 and p2:
and in the COM frame, where it is asserted definitively that the total momenta of the particles, p1' and p2', vanishes:
Using the COM frame equation to solve for V returns the lab frame equation above, demonstrating any frame (including the COM frame) may be used to calculate the momenta of the particles. It has been established that the velocity of the COM frame can be removed from the calculation using the above frame, so the momenta of the particles in the COM frame can be expressed in terms of the quantities in the lab frame (i.e. the given initial values):
notice the relative velocity in the lab frame of particle 1 to 2 is
and the 2-body reduced mass is
so the momenta of the particles compactly reduce to
This is a substantially simpler calculation of the momenta of both particles; the reduced mass and relative velocity can be calculated from the initial velocities in the lab frame and the masses, and the momentum of one particle is simply the negative of the other. The calculation can be repeated for final velocities v1 and v2 in place of the initial velocities u1 and u2, since after the collision the velocities still satisfy the above equations:[3]
so at the origin of the COM frame, R = 0, this implies after the collision
In the lab frame, the conservation of momentum fully reads:
This equation does not imply that
instead, it simply indicates the total mass M multiplied by the velocity of the centre of mass V is the total momentum P of the system:
Similar analysis to the above obtains
where the final relative velocity in the lab frame of particle 1 to 2 is

Swap deal between Claudio Bravo and Jonathan Dos Santos put on hold
According to Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona and Real Sociedad have a deal on the Basque club's goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, but the transfer is pending the agreement of Jonathan Dos Santos, who could go the other way in exchange for Bravo.
According to reports, the two clubs had already closed a deal on the transfer of Bravo for €10 million plus Dos Santos, but the Barcelona player has refused to join Real Sociedad.
Before making the final decision on his future, Dos Santos would allegedly want to talk with new coach Luis Enrique, to see where he fits in the manager's plans. Without the agreement of Dos Santos, the transfer negotiations have been put on hold for the time being.
Newspaper AS, on the other hand, suggests that including Bojan Krkic in the deal for Bravo has been ruled out, and the next one on the list could be Ibrahim Afellay, as the Catalans look to find an agreement with Real Sociedad.
Both Dos Santos and Afellay have featured in minimal roles during during their time in Barcelona and the club could be looking for a new destination for both players.

Still too tired to comment, that workout kicked my arse. Weights haven't really improved, and I am working on form... still it would be nice to increase sometimes, cardio last night I think hampened my leg recovery this morning too, might up my eating if I'm not improving soon, that, or drop some cardio (Nooooooo!)
your workouts look good all the time. Maybe you need a spot to push you a little harder....
some people like training with a partner, but others like me, like to go solo (- rare occasional spot). I would make an exception for someone as wonderful as yourself. lol.
How much cals are you taking in now? below or under? Wait, thats the same thing lol. above or below maintenance? - 07-05-2007, 02:43 PM
If you aren't seeing improvement, drop back the volume a little. Cut a few isolation movements out of your day. Sometimes all you need is to let off a little bit from the program and rest up a bit more to see results.
I used to be in a state of overtraining for years. The moment I pulled back the volume a little, my plateaus crumbled. - 07-05-2007, 05:09 PM
Yeah it might be a bit too much volume... here's what the program is, it is the "Fusion Nutrition training manual" that I was sent by them. let me know if I should cut down on anything.. but I'll only be on it for another two weeks, so I'm hoping I can just stick it out..
Incline db flyes 15,12,8
Incline bb press 10,6,6
Flat bench: 10,6,6
Cable crossover: 12,8

20min cardio pwo, cardio whenever else I can fit in...
Actually I feel like my legs and arms and shoulders in particular are looking like I've been making progress, even though the actual weight isn't going up a big deal, I am eating at around maintenance right now, last weigh in I was down 1 pound haha
anyway feeling kinda run down today, its so cold... I can't afford to get sick!! - 07-05-2007, 09:50 PM
Yeah that is a lot of volume/body part. I don't see why they have you doing flyes and crossovers in the same session, as well as so many curls coupled with all the volume on back work a few days later.
You should be able to stick it out, but maybe take a new direction in training after.
When intensity is raised, volume or frequency should be lowered... as with Volume raised, intensity OR frequency should lower to accommodate, same goes with upping frequency...
I had read that cardio actually helps the immune response... up the Vit-C and Zinc. - 07-05-2007, 10:29 PM
hmm yeah I did think it was a lot of arm work, and I hadn't really separated back/bis like that before. I'll give it one more go this week and scale back if necessary..
After that it changes to push/pull/legs, which I am a bit more familiar with.
I am taking chewable vitC... they taste like candy I could probably eat them all day...
Friday 6th July - CARDIO
.. 40min chill on elliptical (lvl 10)
.. 2x 5mins treadmill @10km
Time went by amazingly quickly, had a cardio mate with me, who came 20mins late , so when I was getting tired, he wasn't yet, so of course you keep going! Felt sicky before the workout, felt great during the workout, and now I am numb all over, actually its more a weakness feeling, hard to describe.. i'm shivering, legs sore from yesterday, and yeah, probably should go and get some rest.
Saturday 7th July - OFF
So I have been feeling like complete sh*t since yesterday and today.. symptoms are pretty bad..
I think I overdid it when I did a long intense cardio session after leg day. My eyes are watery, I feel dizzy, my nose runs like a tap, my muscles are sore like none other, I've been taking nurofen, (painkiller) which helps for a little bit, my appetite is two meals a day as opposed to constantly ravenous and my face feels flushed, and I've been getting shivers even though my air conditioner is on max heat.
I think I will just take a few days off and up my carbs, fruit and antiox, any other suggestions?
Here's my workout summary for this week: methinks I should cut down big time.. i'm so silly!
Sun - Back + 20min pwo cardio, PM cardio
Mon - OFF
Tue - Shoulders/Tris + 20min pwo cardio, PM: 2 hours cardio
Wed - Cardio
Thur - Legs + 20min pwo cardio
Fri - Cardio (1hour.. this was the last straw!)
Sat - collapse..
Stopped taking Leviathan and reset today, just so I could nap during the day. On a brighter note, I can definitely tell my thighs are looking slimmer and my stummy is flatter! Something to keep me happy! I'm pretty sure the leviathan has been giving me the stamina and endurance for such voluminous workouts and of such high quantity, probably so much so that it has allowed me to push past my limits!
Could be initial signs of a minor overtraining in a terms of immune system dysregulation and tampering with.
Get some serious rest for like 3-4 days to a week minimun and try to relax and cut down any sorts of supplements for this period of time.
If you really are on your way to overtraining though some signs are quite specific like an unexplained constant bad feeling for days, a feeling of apathy and very bad mood-depression (like the one you have in flu-like symptoms but without any other apparent cause) an increased/decreased resting heart rate, elevated morning pulse rates , breathing abnormalities and decreased or increased metabolic rates. That would depend on the type of overtraining you may develop offcourse since theres both sympathetic and parasympathetic depending on the part of the autonomic system you stress mostly.
I doubt you have something serious though, i think those symptoms are more due to some temporary weakness of your immune system with some sort of minor infection. Offcourse the reason behind this could be offcourse excess training. In your shoes i would try to get some rest, eat as much as your body requires, get excess of fluids (juices mostly) and check how you wake up. If your waking up becomes progressively refreshing in the next 3-4 days that would be a very good sign as you know. You should cut down any thing that keeps you stimulated by the way, and doesnt relax you, even coffee and tea
Look at the workout i did, exactly similar for the last 3 weeks(including at the same time starting work at a restaurant 4 nights a week and helping my family with work at the fields some weekends) before i got into the 2nd full blown overtraining state this yr(last was last summer when i seriously overdid it with my bycicle and squats once again) This time though it has been so debilitating to me for the last 4 and a half months i cant explain it. Ive been in bed 90% of that time since last days of february.
Just recently i started to feel a bit better, and manage to sleep properly and get some rest and walk around. Till now it felt like i was drinking 10 coffees per day and smoking another 50 cigarretes and couldnt relax for a slight second. Complete fidgety.
As i remember it was like that:
Monday >> 15 minutes cardio,
dynamic stretching for 20 minutes,
>>7 sets of full back squats(2 warming up sets) and 5-8 repetitions of 70-80 up to 110kg max
>>4 sets of good mornings with weight up to 80kg
>>4 sets of dead lifts max weight up to 80kg
>>4 sets of leg curls -10 rep max- weight up to 50kg per leg
>>3 sets of drop jumps 10 reps and 2 sets of depth jumps 8-10reps
cardio for another 10 minutes to relax and then crunches and static stretching
Tuesday>> off- couldnt do much from sore biceps/quads but felt that nice
Wednesday >> Basketball practice 1 hour and 30 minutes. We just did sprinting, jumping, and suicide runs or quarters whatever you want to call them. I hate them some times.
After basketball practice i rested for like 2 hours and went out and had another 3 hour practice of my own and playing with some teammates.
Then at 20:00 i went to the restaurant i had just started working 2 weeks ago part time (6 hours for 4 days a week). That was 6 hours of running around, serving and doing all needed. At 2 am we finished and i was completely wacked since i wasnt allowed to sit for one minute.
Thursday>> Woke up feeling completely sore, so i jumped in the bathtub and had an ice bath for like 20 minutes. That pumped me up a bit.
In the afternoon i thought i was ok so i hit the gym again.
Cardio and dynamic stretching again for like 20-25 minutes
>>Bench press 5 sets of 8 reps max with up to 100kg
>>dumbell presses (i dont know why i did that)
>>dumbell lateral raises 4 sets of 8 reps
>>Chin ups as many as i could take that day(3 sets of 10-15)
>>Pull downs 4 sets 80 kg max
>>Overhead press 3 sets of 10 reps
>>worked some other minor muscle groups i dont even remember how many sets
in the end did cardio for like 10 minutes, crunches and static stretching
Friday>> Midday Basketball practice, mostly played 5 on 5 and practised some calls and playing systems and other minor drills, then i went home had some average carbo/protein meal and without second thought hit the basketball court again playing from 17:00 to 19:30 in the afternoon alone and then i went to work in the restaurant once again till 2 am. i can definately state i was ok till that day, and actually i felt very strong and overall tensed.
Saturday>> match day, i played like 20 minutes total average performance in the game, being slightly tired after late night work but didnt care. Then i went to the restaurant again 20:00 till 2 am, it was a really ****ty day, the restaurant was completely packed all night and i couldnt think clearly from all this crowd, more than 200 people in there just eager to be served and my quads and biceps started to kill me literally.
Sunday was the worst. I woke up and was called from my father to go help him in the fields. I went there and was digging with a shovel and axe and carrying stuff around from 10.00 am to 15:00 pm. then i came back home couldnt rest at all because i was too stressed and tensed. Finally at 20:00 i decided i had to go to the restaurant again for another crappy night, i was running around like the tazmanian devil for another 6 hours. In the end at 2:30 am i literally thought i was gonna collapse. I had blur vision and looking down at my food on the table made me feel dizzy, my eyes were like drippery and feeling completely sore and like wanting to pop out of my head.
Nevertheless i went home and tried to sleep and forget about the stress of the whole week.
So monday comes and i was home studying, thinking that it was squat day and i shouldnt miss it. I could barely lift my feet of the ground, but i had to do it. I went to the gym and with 10 minutes cardio i went under the squat rack. Did progressively 70 80 up to 100 kg and then i started to feel shaky and a sudden boot of depression. I thought it was just some blood pressure thing so i did a few exercises for my triceps and tried to concentrate on the muscles that werent feeling sore.
Went home feeling a bit weird and like depressed.
Next day i woke up i couldnt get out of bed, my legs weighed a ton each. I couldnt lift them off the ground, they were not sore but several steps after soreness, denying to comply with my brain signals, felt inflammed, my heart was beating like a broken clock each time i tried to walk or push my self, i was feeling fatigued, trying to breath and oxygen was never enough, felt depleted of life, completely lethargic, and so depressed to a point i didnt wanna talk or see nobody. Slight noises made even from birds or cars passing 100 meters away or motorbikes would annoy me to a point i wanted to hide, and generally my nervous system was completely messed up. The only thing i wanted to do was to lie down on the floor, or on my bed without sheets or blankets. I even felt that a bed cover was too annoying and too heavy for me. And that was just the beginning, if i go on in further details you would be surprised from the symptoms i faced all those months.
I know i overdid it, and i know it wasnt just due to exercise or working out. I had worked out 5 and 6 days in the past some times 2 times a day and had none of them symptoms. It was rather the accumulation of stress both physical and psychological, of a new work-environment, the stress of my never ending motive to get stronger and jump higher in a rather awkward manner, without periodization in my workouts- i kept doing same exercises for months in and out and, and last but not least the very low quality of rest i was getting let alone, the very low protein intake, i took like less than 50 grams of whey protein per day while i weighed 168 pounds, while carbo intake was minimal as well. I basically relied on everyday food to get all the substances needed The only thing that hasnt cleared out in my mind yet completely is whether the drug finasteride i took to combat hair loss some yrs ago played a conflicting role in my hormonal patterns which prolong this feeling of overtraining. Since both in overtraining and fin use same hormones are affected like testo/free testo and others.
So you dont have to worry about overtraining, i think you are still quite away from such problems, as long as you recover from this phase and you be getting enough sleep and rest you will be doing ok.

John Berardi - Overtraining - Part 1 - 07-07-2007, 08:47 AM
Solon, thanks for the links, I'll check 'em out. Easy E I think I might just do that... my workouts + cardio in the mornings take around 1.5 hours at least, and an extra hour (or two) of cardio at night.. means 3+ hours of gymming a day.. haha! Honestly, it didn't feel that bad, it could just be that I'm getting the flu or something...
Looks like your waay over training IMO. Your workouts are insane... Rest is good but when you've rested try tweaking your workouts so this doesnt happen again. Mind oyu sometimes you just need a break, but keep it in mind that 60% is better than 110%, bc with 110% your actually degressing. nice log, good luck.
Hey!!! I've taken time off since Saturday, it's been 4 days now and I finally feel like I'm on my way to recovery. I had a pretty bad headcold yesterday.. it's been raining and windy, but I stood outside for about 10minutes just soaking in the fresh cold air, I think it did me some good, though! I'm a bit annoyed because I'll have to take the next three days off as well because of school for insanely long hours.. which means one whole week off
I'll recommence on Saturday, not sure what to do with my training.. maybe cut down the volume a bit and reduce cardio.. but I love it, I don't mind exhausting workouts that take a long time, I don't mind doing a lot of cardio, I don't mind the soreness I get the next day.
You guys are right, if I had done less, I probably wouldn't have to take all this time off, but I am not one to take the mediocre approach and half ass my workouts. Even if I've busted ass and gone through my entire planned workout in 45mins, I would still feel somewhat unsatisfied.. guess I have major gym addiction..
I guess my CNS is not in line with my physical capabilities and that makes me sad, I wish there was something I could do to fix it..
Dave, sleep has been pretty good.. I forgot to mention to ya the dream I had, yesterday... it was pretty bad (shame on me!) but I hooked up with a guy who has a gf.. both of whom I'm pretty good friends with.. and they've been together for yonkers.. dream was so vivid as well .. I have no idea why I'm dreaming about someone else's boy instead of my own, I must be going nutso. sh*t. haha
I'm starting to take the supps again, I stopped for about two days. I think I've lost some in the tummy, it feels flatter today
Diet/appetite has not been great.. been eating oatmeal, eggs, bananas and apples most of the time, haven't been able to stomach a lot of food.
That's about all, might take some updated pics in the next few days, hopefully I haven't lost much good weight!! - 07-09-2007, 08:46 PM
a whole week off is what you need. Most of us take a week off after 6-8 weeks of intense training. It's either a week off or deload (lower weights) .. and in most cases it's easier to take the week off than try to nullify the ego (or the fire in your belly) and lower weights.
I also disagree with raising weights if you feel your CNS is compromised.
Week off, come back with a more humble routine while maintaining your cardio... You should be fine.
Most of us mortals don't train for long distance running while trying to recomp and gain strength at the same time.
Good luck. - 07-10-2007, 12:02 PM
good advice... if you take time off... that doesnt mean you have to sit on your ass and eat icecream out of a 5 gallon jug... just do low intensity, like jogging and other things that will stimulate the mind and body, but NOT tax it. Whenever i did this, my strength went up a few % upon returning. Basically I would lift hard for about 4-6 weeks, then spend a week just jogging for 15-45 mins 2x-4x a week. Works for me!
heyheyyyyyyy I'm kinda back in here, haven't done any real exercise, but I've been walking a bit!
Just made it through the LONGEST 3 days of my life that I have ever been through, with barely a spare second to breathe, let alone train.. been leaving the house bright and early in the AM, couped up all day in a lil classroom and get back home just in time for bed. My brain is completely fried now. Haven't been to the gym for a few days, no wonder I am grumpy. Early night tonight, lucky friday the 13th and I'll be back to my workout tomorrow morning to ungrumpify myself, and ready to overtrain again!! Seriously, I'll never learn! - 07-13-2007, 09:32 AM
Eeekk sorry boys thanks for dropping in to kick me in the arse, I apologise for not updating, I'm feeling heaps better now, but this log is in dire need of an update!!! It is days behind.. I'll just have to re-start with today's.
Sublimal.. that has got to be the first time I've heard that my writing is scary... I'm at a loss as to why that is so...!
PP.. um um.. I gotta disappoint you this time.. my diet has been pretty bland, I haven't been bothered to cook up too many yummy meals.. these are the foods I'm currently eating
Carbs - oats, potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice
Fruit - strawberries, apples, bananas
Veggies - whatever is in the fridge, I'm really liking mushrooms and red capsicum right now..and the broc and lettuce
Protein - Chicken, chicken, more chicken, cutting down on whey
Fats - some nuts and efas.
That's really all I've been eating for the past week. Barely any additives, I'm getting used to the naked flavours of food again. I ate this plain, boiled cauliflower, and it was surprisingly really really tasty! My brother looks at me like I'm crazy. Ha!
I'll post my workout in a sec.

Thousands of people in Africa have died from the tropical disease Ebola. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has declared this the largest outbreak of Ebola in world history. Many health organizations, including the CDC, are working hard to care for the sick and help prevent the spread of the disease.
People are concerned about Ebola, but there's no need to panic. When those with Ebola are correctly diagnosed, isolated, and cared for, the risk of passing the disease to others is low.
In the meantime, travelers should avoid going to areas where an outbreak of Ebola has been reported. Those who need to travel to these regions should take precautions to avoid becoming infected.
Ebola, or Ebola hemorrhagic fever (Ebola HF), is a contagious and life-threatening disease that affects humans and other primates, like monkeys, gorillas, and chimpanzees. It causes the body's immune system to go into overdrive — which can lead to severe bleeding, organ failure, and death.
Ebola gets its name from the Ebola River in the Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly Zaire). The disease was first reported in a village on the river in 1976. Since then, there have been a few outbreaks of the disease in western Africa, Uganda, and Sudan.
Doctors aren't sure how the first person gets Ebola at the start of an outbreak, but they think that people may pick up the virus from contact with infected animals. Tropical animals in Africa believed to carry the virus include gorillas, monkeys, fruit bats, porcupines, and forest antelope.
Once someone has Ebola, he or she can pass the virus to others in different ways. People can get the virus by handling or touching drops of blood, urine (pee), or other body fluids of someone infected with the disease, or through contact with objects (such as needles) that have been contaminated with infected blood or fluids.
Because of this, Ebola can spread quickly within families and in health centers where caregivers or others don't wear proper protective gear.
Ebola doesn't spread through food or water like some viruses do. It also doesn't travel through the air like cold or flu viruses do.
Ebola is contagious, but not as contagious as the influenza (flu) virus. With Ebola, a person is only contagious after he or she starts to feel sick with symptoms from the virus. In areas where there is an Ebola outbreak, anyone who isn't feeling well should get immediate medical help and avoid contact with others.
After starting to feel ill, people with the disease are contagious for as long as the virus can be found in their blood and body fluids, even if they recover from the symptoms of the disease. The virus can remain in a person's body fluids for weeks after recovery.
The first signs of Ebola can appear from 2 to 21 days after someone has been exposed to the virus. Most people's symptoms begin 8-10 days after exposure.
Early symptoms of Ebola include:
As the disease progresses, other symptoms can appear, including:
In its later stages, Ebola can lead to severe bleeding, shock, coma, organ failure, and death, usually from low blood pressure.
An early and accurate diagnosis of Ebola is important to help prevent the spread of the disease. But because early symptoms are similar to those caused by other common diseases, it can be hard to diagnose Ebola quickly.
If a person has Ebola symptoms and has been in an area where Ebola is known to exist, he or she needs to be immediately isolated from other people and examined by trained health professionals wearing the proper protective gear.
Doctors can check for the presence of the Ebola virus by doing blood tests, liver function tests, and tests that identify the virus itself. Virus tests need to be sent to laboratories with special equipment and results may not be available for days or weeks.
Most people who get Ebola need intensive care in a hospital or other well-equipped medical center. Treatment involves keeping them well hydrated, maintaining their oxygen and blood pressure levels, replacing lost blood through transfusions, and treating symptoms and complications as they come up. Patients also need to be isolated from the public during treatment to help prevent the disease from spreading.
Some experimental treatments for Ebola have been effective when tested on animals, but are not officially approved for use in people.
There is no vaccine to prevent Ebola, although doctors are working on developing one. It can be hard to prevent the disease since doctors aren't entirely sure how it infects people at the start of an outbreak.
The best way to guard against Ebola infection is to avoid areas that have had outbreaks. Those traveling to Africa, particularly West Africa, should first check the CDC's Ebola website to see where Ebola is present and avoid those regions.
Those who have to go to an area where Ebola is present should avoid contact with infected people, wash their hands often, and not touch or eat wild animals (sometimes called "bush meat"). Those working with Ebola patients must wear head-to-toe protective clothing with no skin exposed.
Public health measures are focused on isolating and treating people who are infected with the Ebola virus. Any needles or other equipment used in their treatment should be disposed of properly. The remains of those who die from the disease must be kept isolated and buried promptly by trained professionals wearing full safety gear.
Ebola is one of the deadliest diseases known to mankind. But with early, aggressive treatment and new breakthroughs, doctors are having more success than ever treating it. And with the possibility of a vaccine on the horizon, Ebola eventually might go the way of smallpox and other diseases that are no longer a threat.

Program Leader: Joseph Guydish, PhD, MPH
Program Co-Leader: Stanton Glantz, PhD
The Tobacco Control Program includes 16 members from 6 academic departments in the UCSF Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Pharmacy. The overarching goal of the Program is to eradicate the use of tobacco and tobacco-induced cancer and other diseases worldwide.
The Tobacco Control Program conducts research under five themes:
The Tobacco Control Program is the focal point for UCSF scientists in disciplines ranging from the molecular biology of nicotine addiction through political science. These scientists combine their efforts to eradicate the use of tobacco and tobacco-induced cancer and other diseases worldwide. A strong theme is that science-driven policy and public health interventions are key to ending the tobacco epidemic, as well as biological and clinical science. The role of the tobacco industry has been an important focus.
The specific scientific goals of the Tobacco Control Program are to (1) conduct clinical and laboratory investigations of the mechanisms of nicotine addiction; (2) further understand the effects of tobacco use and exposure to second-hand tobacco smoke, including genetic studies and investigations of racial and ethnic differences in measures of tobacco exposure and tobacco-related diseases; (3) develop and test innovative interventions for tobacco users, especially those in high-risk populations, including youth, individuals co-morbid with mental and substance abuse disorders, chronic smokers, and ethnic minorities; to provide estimates of the economic costs of tobacco use to society and the corresponding benefits of tobacco control programs; to conduct research on tobacco related policy and to continue to study the effects of the tobacco industry, both nationally and internationally, on tobacco use; and to better describe populations with high smoking rates, both in this country and internationally. Rather than being distinct areas of work, these investigations often interact with, and benefit from each other, spanning multiple disciplines. The expertise inherent of the Program membership supports the accomplishment of these goals.
Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education
The Center encompasses the work of 29 faculty members, their students, fellows and staff, who are committed to research, cessation, training and education designed each year. This work extends from basic studies of nicotine pharmacology through the health effects of smoking and secondhand smoke to action-oriented policy interventions.
Legacy Tobacco Documents Library
The Legacy Tobacco Documents Library is a digital library of internal tobacco industry documents from the files of top tobacco companies, made possible by the UCSF Library and the American Legacy Foundation. The library offers searching, viewing, and downloading of over 20 million documents, which relate to scientific research, manufacturing, marketing, advertising and sales of cigarettes, among other topics.
UCSF Tobacco Control Archives
Sponsored by the UCSF Library and Center for Knowledge Management, Department of Archives/Special Collections, this is a central, organized source of information with the purpose of collecting, preserving, and providing access to papers, unpublished documents, and electronic resources relevant to tobacco control issues, primarily in California.
Smoke Free Movies
Hollywood stars attract millions of moviegoers. Philip Morris, RJ Reynolds, Brown and Williamson, and other big tobacco companies then addict and kill them, making billions in profits. This site uncovers that story.
For years, the tobacco industry has used and abused the restaurant and bar industry to defend its own billions of dollars in profits. Get the facts on Big Tobacco's scam.
