The role of android as an alternative to embedded Linux has been a subject of quite a bit of discussion recently. As the use of open source software in automotive gains momentum there are differing opinions on the subject of using Android, Linux or both. The Linux Foundation recently wrote a post summarizing a discussion during a panel at the Android Builders Summit as well as some interviews from … Read More

Night blindness is poor vision at night or in dim light.
Nyctanopia; Nyctalopia; Night blindness
Night blindness may cause problems with driving at night. People with night blindness often have trouble seeing stars on a clear night or walking through a dark room, such as a movie theater.
These problems are often worse just after a person is in a brightly lit environment. Milder cases may just have a harder time adapting to darkness.
The causes of night blindness fall into two categories: treatable and nontreatable.
Treatable causes:
Nontreatable causes:
Take safety measures to prevent accidents in areas of low light. Avoid driving a car at night, unless you get your eye doctor's approval.
Vitamin A supplements may be helpful if you have a vitamin A deficiency. Ask your health care provider.
It is important to have a complete eye exam to determine the cause, which may be treatable. Call your eye doctor if symptoms of night blindness persist or significantly affect your life.
Your health care provider will examine you and your eyes. The goal of the medical exam is to determine if the problem can be corrected (for example, with new glasses or cataract removal ), or if the problem is due to something that is not treatable.
The doctor may ask you questions, including:
The eye exam will include:

I could not let our friend Kirk depart without enquiring after the wellfare of my worthy friend Jn. Drinker & familie tho its more then you deserve as I have not heard from you for some time past, but it cannot diminish the affection I have always claimed for yr families though I should be forgotten by you.
I have been very uneasy on account of yr broth. Henry's wife who I hear is in a very bad state of health & far gone in a consumption pray let me know if she is better, as I doo not chuse to enquire of yr brother for fear of affecting him too much if she is realy as dangerous as represented but I hope not. yr sister stays w' her son Isac in Georgetown for awhile as his wife is threatened by a consumption & [Belsey?] is very fond of her. Travis is gone to reside in the country of [Name?]. I hope he made you proper remittances for the Goods you send him here he did not answer my Expectation in that sphere of life but I believe it was owing rather to the times then want of application, he is beter calculated for the country as it agrees with him and hopes he will do very well.
Pray what is become of Mrs. Thomas is she well, I got toe better of all her Complaints, she too has forsaken me, tho I love her dearly its in imitation of you I supose yr familie is such formalists for you will never write but in response of some noncence of mine & Hannah follows up.

Fox Women's Flux Helmet 2012
The Flux helmet offers comprehensive coverage and comfort without the bulky feel of traditional cross country helmets. Inner padding adds structural support while it protects you from unexpected hard landings.
I bought this for my wife and she loved it so much I bought one for me. If you still ride off-road with a road style helmet, stop now and buy this one! If your current helmet is the road style (it does not drop down in the back to cradle the lower rear) then you are not as protected as you need to be. Once you fit this helmet to your head, you will immediately feel the extra protection it provides. The Flux is light, yet feels super sturdy. You will also feel increased confidence in your riding knowing you head is better protected.
My wife loves her flux helmet, she has an average sized head and the S/M fit perfectly with plenty of adjustment room

FloTHERM Achieves 95% Customer Satisfaction in New Survey
June 2008
More than 95% of the users of Flomerics' FloTHERM thermal simulation software said in a recent survey that they were satisfied with FloTHERM. Of the FloTHERM users, 36.6% said they were very satisfied and 58.8% said they were fairly satisfied with only 3.9% saying they were slightly dissatisfied and 0.7% very dissatisfied. An even higher percentage said they would recommend FloTHERM with 31.4% saying they would strongly recommend and 66.7% saying they would recommend FloTHERM to others. Only 2% said they would not recommend FloTHERM. The survey respondents also clearly perceive Flomerics FloTHERM thermal analysis software as the market leader, with 73.2% naming this software package as compared to only 9.2% for the number two software.
"We use a variety of tools to address these challenges, including hand calculations and flow network modeling tools, but the most powerful by far is FloTHERM, our thermal simulation tool of choice," said Bob Sullivan, Chief Technology Officer for Hybricon. "FloTHERM provides detailed graphical information on pressures, temperatures and airflows throughout our design, providing detailed insights on how the design can be improved. A key advantage of the software package is that it is designed for use by mechanical design engineers, which allows us to quickly optimize solutions."
"FloTHERM goes one major step further than our internal code by modeling the entire geometry of the chassis," said Chris Heard, Engineer for Amphenol Total Connection Solutions. "I can specify where the power is dissipated and the simulation tracks the flow of air and transfer of heat throughout the chassis. We have used FloTHERM for 16 years and have developed a high degree of confidence in its accuracy. Most of our larger customers also use the software so we can easily exchange models with them."
"We selected Flomerics' FloTHERM thermal simulation software because it is easy to use and can simulate nearly any type of test system," said Trevor Moody, Thermal and Mechanical Engineer for Antares Advanced Test Technologies. "Another advantage of FloTHERM is that most of our customers use it for thermal simulation, so they have confidence in our simulation results and we can share models with them."
FloTHERM software from Flomerics reduces the time and skill required to simulate complicated electronics cooling problems, because it is specially designed for electronic cooling applications. FloTHERM provides tools that allow users to assemble models from libraries, avoiding the need to create them from scratch. It provides an abundant supply of thermal model libraries for existing components. FloTHERM provides an environment that enables fast, automated design studies. Automated gridding and distributed processing across networks streamlines the process of evaluating multiple iterations to optimize the design. In conjunction with other Flomerics products, FloTHERM makes it possible to address other interrelated performance issues such as electromagnetic compatibility, reliability and stress in a concurrent fashion.

That was when i started watching naruto because a friend wouldn't shut up about it. I remember i finished the whole series (220 episodes) in like a week or two, eating nothing but cup noodles and drinking pepsi (my parents were on a vacation so i had to get my own food :P). If i could have turn back time i would never have started watching anime, its a gateway to hell. I dont think you can ever get rid of the addiction. |

Going with Your Gut
So begins Matan Shelomi, Ph.D. candidate in entomology at the University of California, Davis, in a creative video posted on the popular PHD TV website.
It's a compelling site that showcases the work of Ph.D students. In this case, Shelomi is allocated two minutes to describe his work--why he studies walking sticks. There aren't that many doctoral candidates who can describe their thesis in two minutes--and so engagingly!
What's PHD TV all about? As its website says, it "aims to illustrate and communicate the ideas, stories and personalities of researchers, scientists and scholars worldwide in creative, compelling and truthful ways. We believe there is a gap between scientists and academics and how the public perceives what they do and who they are."
Shelomi, who received his bachelor's degree in organismic and evolutionary biology from Harvard University, studies with major professor Lynn Kimsey, director of the Bohart Museum of Entomology and professor of entomology at UC Davis.
One of the top writers on the Quora site, Shelomi won a Shorty award last year for his answer to an insect question. He's also engaged in unusual research, such as "Cutting Bergmann's Rule Down to Size" and taking a poke at Pokémon (with two other entomologists).
In his PHD TV piece, titled "The Wild World of Insect Digestion," Shelomi explains why "you should go with your gut" and "follow your heart."
The video is so incredible that when when you finish watching it, you may just want to join Shelomi in studying walking sticks.
Or at least check out the stick insects walking around in the Bohart Museum...

What They Did Is Amazing!
If you like Pokémon, you know the insect connection.
Satoshi Tajiri of Japan, who developed Pokémon, collected insects in his childhood and initially toyed with the idea of becoming an entomologist.
He never forgot his love of insects and showcased them in Nintendo's Pokémon, now the world's second most successful video game-based media franchise, eclipsed only by Nintendo's Mario.
Enter three young entomologists at the Bohart Museum of Entomology, University of California, Davis. What they did is amazing.
They published a humorous take on the evolutionary development and history of the 646 fictional species depicted in the Pokémon media over the last 16 years.
"We made a very real phylogeny of the very fake Pokémon creatures," commented lead author Matan Shelomi, the UC Davis entomology graduate student who conceived the idea.
The article, "A Phylogeny and Evolutionary History of the Pokémon," appeared in the Annals of Improbable Research (AIR), a tongue-in-cheek journal meant "to make people laugh and then think," according to the editors. In keeping with the "laugh-and-then-think" concept, the journal also awards the infamous IG Nobel Prizes.
Shelomi, a graduate of Harvard where the IG Nobel Prizes are awarded, said he based his idea "in part on other AIR papers like the phylogeny of Chia Pets and the taxonomic description of Barney the Dinosaur."
Until now, however, no one has traced the evolutionary history of the 646 fictional species, let alone develop a 16-generation phylogenetic or evolutionary tree.
The Pokémon project is the work of Shelomi; Andrew Richards, a junior specialist at the Bohart Museum; and Ivana Li, an entomology student/artist who works part-time at the Bohart.
Oh, wait! There's a fourth author, too--Yukinari Okido, whom Pokémon fans may recognize as the Japanese name of one of the fictional Pokémon professors from the game/TV show, Professor Oak.
How did it all come about? "I had a lull in my dissertation research and decided to spend the weekends and downtime making this phylogeny," said Shelomi, who is studying for his doctorate in entomology with Lynn Kimsey, director of the Bohart Museum and professor of entomology at UC Davis. "It took at least a month to actually collect all the data, which I did manually by scrolling through Pokémon websites."
What about reader reaction? "The paper is slowly making the rounds," Shelomi said. "We've had quite a few people disagree with the tree, as some of the conclusions violate Pokémon canon, and we do have the usual phylogenetic problems of long-branch attraction, etc. The disconnect between the tree and Pokémon mating groups is a problem, but I argue that the Biological Species Concept should not be assumed for Pokémon and I stand by my tree."
"So far, one scientist--a linguist in Japan--has asked for a copy of the dataset to use in a class on phylogram building," Shelomi said, "and he apparently came up with a different tree."
"It would be nice to see a wide set of articles responding to this one," Shelomi said. "I think it would be quite easy to fill a journal of Pokémon science, although much harder to justify creating one."

Kill It Or Let It Live?
That was basically the question that UC Davis entomologist/doctoral candidate Matan Shelomi answered on Quora.
Shelomi answered it so well that he tied for a first-place Shorty Award, the social media-equivalent of an Oscar. The Shorties are given annually to the best producers of short content on social media, as determined by popular vote. The question, posted on Quora, the popular question-and-answer website which engages worldwide users, drew scores of answers, but Shelomi's answer went viral and resulted in an invitation to the fourth annual star-studded Shorty Awards ceremony on March 26 in Times Square, New York City.
And nobody was more surprised than Matan Shelomi.
"I've been posting on Quora for a few months now after my sophomore roommate from Harvard, who works there, invited me to it. Not to question a website with employees from Harvard, I signed up. I occasionally go on there and post answers to entomology questions, especially if I get an e-invite to answer a specific question. I've answered more than 100 questions so far."
"I saw this one question on 'If you injure a bug, should you kill it' on Nov 30, 2011 and was dissatisfied with the answers, which mostly answered from a religious or philosophical standpoint. I looked up insect pain reception briefly and answered it. I had no idea my response would be so popular! Apparently it's a question a lot of people had. It was popularized on Gawker as one of the 'most demented questions on Quora.' "
"They liked my answer, though. That was surprising enough, and later I got an email out of the blue saying I had been nominated for a Shorty, 'The Oscars of Twitter.' "
His answer:
"Looks like the philosophers and theists have made their cases. As far as entomologists are concerned, insects do not have pain receptors the way vertebrates do. They don't feel 'pain,' but may feel irritation and probably can sense if they are damaged. Even so, they certainly cannot suffer because they don't have emotions. If you heavily injure an insect, it will most likely die soon: either immediately because it will be unable to escape a predator, or slowly from infection or starvation. Ultimately this crippling will be more of an inconvenience to the insect than a tortuous existence, so it has no 'misery' to be put out of but also no real purpose anymore. If it can't breed anymore, it has no reason to live.
"In other words, I have not answered your question because, as far as the science is concerned, neither the insect nor the world will really care either way. Personally, though, I'd avoid doing more damage than you've already done. 1) Maybe the insect will recover, depending on how damaged it is. 2) Some faiths do forbid taking animal lives, so why go out of your way to kill? 3) You'll stain your shoe."
Shelomi's answer drew widespread praise on Quora, including:
--"This, by far, is the funniest answer I have read on Quora. Not only the funniest answer, but also the funniest show of authority on a subject. You have to love the casualness of it and the mockery aspect. Funny and yet not frivolous. Well done. 10/10. I will read it again now."
--"Great answer, the shoe comment is what really sold it."
Shelomi's response was subsequently nominated for "best answer on Quora," a new category of the Shorties. Another commitment prevented him from being at the Times Square award ceremony, held March 26, but he posted his "equally short" video acceptance speech. He earlier recorded it at the Bohart Museum of Entomology, UC Davis, where he studies insect physiology.
As it turned out, Shelomi shared the first-place award in the Quora category with former police officer Justin Freeman, now an evangelical pastor in Mountain Grove, Mo., who answered "What's the best way to escape the police in a high-speed car chase?"
If you have a question, you, too, can post it on Quora. And if it's an entomological question, you just might get a creative answer from Matan Shelomi.

Sudden-Death Question
Quick! What's the answer to this question?
"I am a blood feeder; I have no hair but have a comb. What am I?"
That was the final question posed when the University of California, Davis competed Monday night with the University of Hawai-Manoa team for the championship of the Linnaean Games, Pacific Branch of the Entomological Society of America (PBESA).
The Linaean Games are college bowl-type games featuring questions about insects, entomologists and entomological facts. Each branch of the Entomological Society of America (ESA) can send two teams to the nationals. This year ESA meets in Reno Nov. 13-16.
So, UC Davis and the University of Hawaii are in a dead heat at the PBESA meeting in Hawaii. Tied game. Buzzers ready. And then comes that final question. "What am I?"
"A flea," Emily Symmes of the UC Davis team correctly answers.
Yes, a flea! A flea, indeed.
Emily Symmes, who is studying for her doctorate with major professor Frank Zalom, joined the winners' circle with her fellow teammates who also did equally well: Matan Shelomi, studying for his doctorate with major profesor Lynn Kimsey; Meredith Cenzer, studying for her doctorate with major professor Louie Yang; and James Harwood, studying for his doctorate with major professor James R. Carey.
Winning at the branch level is indeed an accomplishment, as well as a fun endeavor. The PBESA encompasses 11 U.S. states (Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming); several U.S. territories, including American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands; and parts of Canada and Mexico.
If you've never been to any of the Linnaean Games, you can see videos online by Googling "Linnaean Games." See if you can answer those questions.
Might be another question about fleas in there, too.
Practicing for the Games
Now That's Thorny
You never know who's coming to dinner...er...reception.
When the UC Davis Department of Entomology hosted an open house today for prospective graduate students, the Bohart Museum of Entomology brought along some thorny walking sticks.
Graduate student Matan Shelomi, who studies with major professor Lynn Kimsey, showed the thorny stick insect to various individuals: faculty members, staff, students and prospective students.
The thorny walking stick (Aretaon asperrimus), native to Borneo, is covered with...guess what?... thornlike spikes. The female "stick" reaches three inches long and the males, two inches long. Their diet: bramble, oak, ivy and rose. No human beings; these little walking sticks are harmless.
If you'd like to hold walking sticks or Madagascar hissing cockroaches, be sure to attend the Bohart Museum's upcoming open house, set from 1 to 4 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 26. Admission is free. The Bohart is located at 1124 Academic Surge on California Drive.
The insect museum houses more than seven million insect specimens, plus a live "petting zoo," which includes Madagascar hissing cockroaches and walking sticks.
During the weekdays, you can visit the Bohart Museum Monday through Thursday from 8:30 to 5 p.m. (closed during the lunch hour). Group tours can be arranged with Tabatha Yang, education and outreach coordinator, at (530) 752-9464 or email@example.com.
Be sure to check out the thorny walking sticks!

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
What is involved in the recovery from Mohs Surgery? How long until I can go back to work?
Rachel Woods, BSN, RN, Nurse in Mohs micrographic surgery at Penn Medicine, responds:
Mohs surgery is under local anesthesia and has minimal down time. Most people take a couple of days off of work but some take none at all. Sutures usually are out in a week and swelling and bruising subsides within two weeks. Depending on what type of work you do and where your sutures are located, you may need to take it easy for a few days to avoid opening the wound.
Learn more about Moh's surgery.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series: Sun Safety and Skin Cancer Prevention Webchat. View the entire transcript on Sun Safety.
Apr 18, 2012 - For Medicare beneficiaries, the rate of use of Mohs micrographic surgery to treat nonmelanoma skin cancer doubled from 2001 through 2006, according to research published in the April issue of the Archives of Dermatology.

Please note that as of October 24, 2014, the Nokia Developer Wiki will no longer be accepting user contributions, including new entries, edits and comments, as we begin transitioning to our new home, in the Windows Phone Development Wiki. We plan to move over the majority of the existing entries. Thanks for all your past and future contributions.
Getting started with Java ME
Getting your first Java ME application (MIDlet) running on a real device requires a number of steps. This Wiki page is a guide through that process. As it is targeted at first-time MIDlet developers, some things are simplified, and more detailed information can be found elsewhere.
Contents |
Is Java ME the right tool for your requirements?
Java ME is a limited subset of the standard Java (Java SE) available on the desktop computers, with some additional mobile phone-related APIs. There are a number of limitations you need to keep in mind:
- MIDlets run in a sandbox because of security reasons. (There are confirmations when using certain functionalities, like networking or sending SMS messages.)
- There is no JNI (Java Native Interface) so you cannot extend the capabilities of Java ME environment on the phone.
- There are no Swing or AWT classes. MIDlets use their own (simplistic) UI classes.
- The capabilities of the Java ME environment vary widely, meaning that the phones have different set of optional APIs implemented (examples include access to files, access to phone-book, video/audio recording, 3D graphics, etc.)
So first of all, before starting anything else, think whether Java ME is the right choice for you, or whether you should instead use Flash Lite for your application (runs both on Series 40 and S60 phones), or whether you should program in Python (S60 only) or in native Symbian C++ (for S60 phones only). (However, native C++ development for Symbian OS is quite tedious and error-prone, so just for productivity reasons, Java ME might be a better choice.)
If Java ME seems to be the way to go, you can find a lot of good information in this Wiki or in Nokia Developer's Java Discussion Forums. There is also documentation available elsewhere on the Nokia Developer website, as well at Sun Web site and IBM Developer Works Web site.
Overview of the development process
First note that you have to code, compile and package the MIDlet on your development computer. You cannot create a MIDlet on the phone itself (yet).
To write MIDlet code, use whatever text editor or IDE (Integrated Development Environment) you prefer. (But see the Nokia-supported IDEs below.) Then compile the code with the Javac compiler which comes with a Java SE SDK (JDK). Even though you do not need to worry about it right now, your code is also pre-verified at this stage.
Before being able to install the MIDlet on a real device, you still need to package the MIDlet classes and resources to a JAR (Java Archive) file and generate a JAD (Java Application Descriptor) file. The JAR file contains all the code needed to run the application. The JAD file is a text file containing descriptive information about the MIDlet (size, needed APIs, MIDlet name, Vendor name, optional signing information), which the phone (and user) can use to decide whether or not to download the MIDlet at all. You need only to install the JAR file on the phone to be able to run the MIDlet; however, it is strongly recommended to use both of the files to install the application.
At this stage, you can test the MIDlet on your development workstation using the phone emulator, and then most probably make changes, then recompile and repackage it. When you are satisfied with the result, you can transfer the generated JAR and JAD files to a real phone, install the app, and test it. (You should always test a MIDlet on a real device before distributing it.)
You can also use some online resources to test your application on real devices, such Remote Device Access (RDA) or Device Anywhere.
You should also download other vendors' emulators (Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, etc.) and test your application using them.
Required hardware
The configuration of your computer depends on the tools you plan to use. Specific information can be found in each product's release notes or web site.
Required software for S60
For Java ME development for the S60 platform, the following tools are needed:
- a Java SE (Standard Edition) Development Kit (JDK)
- a Wireless Toolkit
- a Nokia Symbian/S60 SDK for Java
- an IDE that supports mobile Java development; popular ones are NetBeans and Eclipse Pulsar
For details of installing the required tools, see Installing Java ME development tools for Symbian, as well as the information made available on the tools' web pages.
Emulators and SDKs for Series 40 and Series 80
It should be noted that Series 80 is an old platform that is no longer supported by Nokia Developer.
Nokia Asha SDK 1.0 (beta) (14 May 2013): Nokia Asha SDK 1.0 (beta) is available for download. This SDK enables you to target your Java apps at phones based on Nokia Asha software platform 1.0. SDKs for Series 40 (including Nokia SDK 2.0 for Java), can be downloaded from here.
Coding and compiling your first MIDlet
See Hello World in Java ME, Creating your first MIDlet using EclipseME, Developing MIDlets using Pulsar and Eclipse and NetBeans.
Typical pitfalls
Compiling the Java ME code with wrong Java compliance option
The correct compliance is 1.3 or 1.4. Compiling with 5.0 or 6.0 compliance makes it impossible to install the MIDlet.
Compiling and packaging the MIDlet for incorrect CLDC or MIDP version
This is especially true when using Sun Wireless Toolkit, which by default builds the MIDlet for MIDP 2.1. However, most of the current phones have only MIDP 2.0 available. (Note, that you can install on a phone a MIDlet with lower CLDC/MIDP version than what the phone supports, but you cannot install a MIDlet with higher CLDC/MIDP version on the phone. Check the supported CLDC and MIDP versions on FN device specification pages.)

A Baby Boomer looks at health, finance, retirement, grown-up children and ... how time flies.

Sit on the Fence -- or Walk a Fine Line
First of all, let me admit that I'm as guilty as anyone. I had a desk job for over 30 years, for which the primary qualification was the ability to sit still for eight to ten hours every day, with an occasional break to attend a meeting ... where the main requirement was the necessity to sit still for somewherre between 45 minutes and an hour. In addition, I commuted to work, which for the first few years of my career involved sitting on a train for 45 minutes every morning and evening; then after that, sitting in a car every morning and night.
"Sitting 6+ hours per day makes you up to 40% likelier to die within 15 years than someone who sits less than 3. Even if you exercise."
For all my efforts what did I end up with? A 401K plan, an IRA account; a herniated disk in my neck and a case of carpal tunnel syndrome. Last year I had to undergo surgery for carpal tunnel, followed by six weeks of occupational therapy. Now, at night, I wear a flexible brace on my elbow to prevent further nerve damage in my arm. Also, when the disk in my neck acts up, causing back pain and tingling down my arm, I strap on a neck brace when I go to bed to keep my spine straight while I sleep.
"People with sitting jobs have twice the rate of cardiovascular disease as people with standing jobs."
Now that I'm retired, what do I do? I sit at my computer for about six hours a day. However, now I make sure to stand up and take a walk at least once an hour -- in the winter I do six or eight loops around the house, through the kitchen, dining room, living room, around past the laundry and back into the kitchen. In the summer I walk around the yard. (I also walk the golf course, but that's another story.)
"Those who sit 3 hours or more per day watching TV are 64% more likely to die from heart disease."
The point is, too much sitting is very bad for you. I know this. We all know this. So last year I joined my local sports club. I now try to head up there as often as I can to ride a stationary bike and "pump iron" on a weight machine. The trouble is, life gets in the way, and I'm not very disciplined. I only get to the health club about once a week, and I know that's not nearly enough.
"Obese people sit for 2.5 more hours per day than thin people."
When I had kids at home, we had a dog, and it was my job to walk him every night. That helped some. But I was younger then; it was before I'd developed back problems and nerve problems. After my kids had grown and our dog died, I did not get another pet. But when I met B, she had a dog, and she got me to go with her when she walked her dog in the evening. But she couldn't get me to go with her in the morning. And that's when she walks two or three miles around the neighborhood. B doesn't have any back problems; she doesn't have any nerve problems, because she walks every day, rain or shine, summer and winter.
Occasional exercise is better than no exercise. But it's walking every day that keeps you in shape, keeps the weight down, and keeps the muscles and ligaments and bones working through your 6th and 7th and 8th decades.
"The human body simply isn't built to sit for long periods of time."
I always knew I needed to sit less and walk more. Since discovering this graphic, I've redoubled my efforts. I'm getting better. I don't want to be 40% likelier to die in the next 15 years. But I'm also open to suggestions ... about how people manage to put more walking in their lives, and less sitting around watching TV or typing into the computer.
For those of you who want to read the fine print of this graphic, step over to "Sitting Is Killing You" on this Medical Billing and Coding website. (For some reason, this is as large as I could get the graphic to reproduce via Blogger.) Go ahead, take the walk. It's good for you.

I'll be paying attention to see if your readers have any great ideas for adding walking to their lives. My life is very sedentary and my name says it all. I swim three mornings a week but I know this isn't enough.

Nothing unusual about this idea, but a scan of mini-mall parking lots shows most folks don't do it.
Park far away from the place you are visiting, rather than jockeying for a spot as close to the door as you can get.
You'll enjoy a nice little bit of walking from and to your vehicle. The side benefit is a much lower chance another driver will ding your doors or fenders. - January 26, 2012 at 1:38 PM

I live in NYC with no car-I walk every day and also carry all my groceries,lift weights and do yoga. I eat a healthy low fat diet with lots of fruit and vegetables-I'm 62-hopefully,this will be enough to stay healthy.

Moved from suburbia where we used a car to go everywhere to a town where we can walk places. I have get out and walk almost everyday - to the library, a store to buy a couple of items, the coffee shop. Sometimes a couple of blocks, usually at least a mile and in good weather long walks (3-6 miles). Also hit the gym for Zumba and weights.

It sounds like you really need to pry yourself away from your computer for an hour each day to get on a treadmill or something; preferably a walk outside. Maybe you could use a dictation app like Dragon on a smartphone to rough draft some of your blog work while walking. It works really well for a free app.

Taking care of animals helps a lot, but winter in this part of the country isn't conducive to staying outside for long periods of time. At least there is a fair amount of activity just getting dressed to go out and come in.

I put on raingear today and walked to get a pedicure, put a couple of our books in the mail, and pick up a sympathy card.
I'm on the computer a lot, but I bought a gadget for my desktop that raises the computer and keyboard so I stand instead of sitting. I love it.
I need to do more, but it's a good beginning, anyway. - January 26, 2012 at 9:09 PM

I live in a big old 3 story Victorian home with a basement laundry and do all the house-cleaning myself. That means I climb lots of stairs every day. The woman who owned the house for 40 years before me lived until she was 102, so I'm thinking the stair climbing is good. It's been 15 years so far and no aches, pains or medications. I also always use stairs instead of elevators whenever possible.

how about housework? Vacuuming, mopping, even dusting are walking around activities that are also productive. My mom's cardiologist advised her to "clean her own home". I do it and it is a part of my exercise regimen. to make it more of a workout, I try to work fast! I also go to a gym.

I always find it amusing that folks driving to the health club always attempt to get a parking space as close to the front door as possible.
Probably the saddest sight is a health club in Sarasota, Florida that hads an escalator instead of stairs. Even walking into the gym has been simplified. God forbid you get any exercise on the way to your exercise class. - January 27, 2012 at 1:20 PM

Timely piece. I visited my orthopedic surgeon yesteday for a cortisone shot in my right shoulder. I fell on it in December and have made it worse with typing at the comuputer. Hopefully this shot will do the trick. I will not have the surgery you have as it fails too often.
I wear a wrist brace most nights, but take it off sometime around 2:00 when I wake up with a numb arm. I've had problems with the tendon in my right arm for years.
Do sit too much? Probably, but if its going to kill me its too late. Besides, I'd rather be reading or writing.
I ask you this...how many writers do you think were fitness freaks?
PS besides, I got all my exercise when I was younger. - January 28, 2012 at 8:40 AM

My exercise of choice is to ride around in a golf cart for 4 hours. I do get exercise this way. There's the getting out and walking up to the tee or green and back and then there's all that swinging of the club in a vain attempt to move the ball forward.

Yes Tom,
One thing I promised myself after I lost my job: Take a long walk EVERYDAY!
After you lose your job, you've lost all of your excuses not to exercise. Plus it's GREAT for your mental health! So get outside!

NEW Clinical Toolkit
Built on a woman's reproductive life plan, this toolkit provides clinical guidance for reaching every woman with preconception and interconception health services, every time she presents for routine care.

It includes CME opportunities, quick access to key articles, clinical guidance, and news of special interest to providers.

Lots of beautiful inspiration. Here is Leigh with her latest Hello Betty quilt top. (Dang it - sorry about the eyes closed picture, Leigh! But the quilt was too awesome not to show.)
So if you get the chance to sew with a quilt guild - I highly recommend it. Because chances are, there are going to be fun people and good food there. Just be prepared to not actually sew as much as you think you will. :)

Matsu Saika - Loyal Son
Matsu Gouryu
"A late born son has nothing but his deeds to carry his name to greatness."
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try or how good you get, it'll never matter unless it meets the proper standards. Rarely are those standards ever your own.
Matsu Gouryu is the second son of Matsu Abe and Kitsu Yoroi, younger brother to Matsu Akito. Both parents as well as his brother were involved in the War against the Destroyers and were granted the good fortune to not only save the empire, they were also given the chance to tell their tales.
Gouryu, born a child of peacetime, did not have the luck to become a great hero like the rest of his family did. In fact, the only thing he ever could claim to be good at was never meeting his fathers standards. A passable student of the sword with only his natural strength being any indicator of potential and this infuriates his father to no end. No son of his should just be "passable". That is completely unacceptable.
Gouryu continues to try. He might not ever be worthy of his fathers love, but he won't ever stop trying.
Originally Posted by Writing sample
Matsu Akito, lit faintly by the light of the paper lantern he carried, followed the sounds of a person swinging a sword crudely against a practice dummy. It was late on a cold autumn night and he didn't expect anyone to be awake at this hour, but he also knew his brother all too well. Berated yet again by their father for his clumsy technique and his perceived incompetence, he knew that Gouryu would be unable to rest until he improved and reached his father's standards. With the power and prestige that came with being the sons of Matsu Abe, there was a lot of pressure on both of the boys just by virtue of being born. The problem here is that Gouryu wasn't a particularly smart boy and if he were to practice all on his own, he's likely to just make his technique worse. The boy was all muscle and he had no idea why he was just so slow to grasp the basics; he certainly wasn't as clumsy as his younger brother was at his age. The shoji screen slid open and there stood his younger brother, a ridiculously disproportional boy of 11, powerful strings of muscle lining across his arms and chest, coiled tightly and brimming with a strength that all Matsu were known for. Caught off guard by his brother's arrival, he stammers a bit before bowing deeply to acknowledge a hero from the Destroyer War. "You're steps are still too large. I can feel it all across the floor." He comments dryly, the young boy rubbing his arm sheepishly at being corrected yet again. "Learn the proper way to keep acceptable space between you and your opponent so that you can comfortable move without having to lunge so much." "I'm sorry, Akito-Niisan. I.. I'll try to do better." He looked at the dummy and took a few steps as instructed, trying to grasp the difference in skill between he and his sibling. In his mind's eye, the dummy stood 8 feet tall, dressed in unholy black metal armor like the tales that he had heard from survivors of the war. Surely if an enemy was as big as that, their reach would be even more fearsome and you had no choice BUT to lunge. But this wasn't a destroyer. This was a wooden dummy, padded with straw, carrying nothing to threaten him with. Gouryu wanted to be a hero... He just wanted to be like his brother. Akito would settle for Gouryu to stop being such a dreamer. |

"An Optimist's Tour of the Future"
One Curious Man Sets Out to Answer "What's Next?"
Hosted by Brian Edwards-Tiekert
Tuesday, Feb. 15
First Congregational Church of Berkele
2345 Channing Way (at Dana St.)
$12 at the door or Brown Paper Tickets
"Blind optimism is the last thing the world needs—it's a recipe for disappointment. But what about ptimism based on careful reasoning? …That's what's on offer here. Stevenson's tools are curiousity, open-mindedness, clarity, and reason. That makes his journey intriguing and ultimately exhilarating."
- Chris Anderson, TED Curator
When unexpectedly confronted with his own mortality, Mark Stevenson – a writer, truly deep thinker, and stand-up comedian – began to ponder what the future holds for our species. Although the future is an unknown and increasingly alarming territory, there is no guidebook. The author traveled the globe pursuing
answers, and found many that are surprisingly reassuring.

The Lacey sits on the former parking lot of the Florida Avenue Grill, a soul-food restaurant that has survived race riots, neighborhood decline, and more recently a rebirth. To honor that legacy, the owner asked for something other than the brick-and-mortar tenant buildings of the past. "He wanted this to be a forward-looking landmark, something that engages the street," says Ali R. Honarkar of Division1 Architects.
It looks more like a vibrant community center than a condo building, thanks to the street-level duplexes whose glassy façades open to yards and stoops, like the surrounding row houses. Above, balconies are scattered, not stacked, and a showpiece fire escape leads to a communal rooftop terrace. A judge praised the Lacey's transparency and industrial elegance, noting that "it integrates nicely with the neighborhood patterns."

It is the safest port in the Azores. Its marina is internationally known by sailors around the world who like to stop in Horta, the capital of Faial. Let yourself go into this authentic land. There are stories, legends, to tell and a lot of adventures.
In this small island of 173 km2 live about 15 000 people, according to the latest statistics. But many more come here daily. There is a charm in this city, perhaps because it is the land of men at sea. It seems that those who arrive at the docks - or land - are coming to a magical place that hides many stories, many tales and adventures. Just come to downtown and stop in front of all the moored boats there and look at the sailors (sea wolves) and realize that the stories do not end as soon as they come ashore. It is therefore a place that appeals to all the imagination of calling this island the Azores Archipelago.Not only has the marina laid the charm of this island, but also the hydrangeas, the island of Faial mixes shades of green, from its prairies, with the blue of the sea (and flowers). This is a land that was an important staging point in time for the caravels of Discovery. The island was discovered by Diogo Teive, with an exploratory trip in 1451, during the sailing of Gonçalo Velho Cabral.
