Watts Tower in LA
For Simon Rodia, another man's trash is another man's tower. Watts Towers are handmade constructions diligently and passionately built by Simon Rodia, a native of Ribottoli, Italy, during his time off work over the course of 33 years. The decoration materials … used and collected glasses, shells, pottery shards, bottles and tiles.
"I had in my mind I'm gonna do something, something big."
The tower reaches a height of 99 1/2, only stopping there because of the city limit.
I like all the details of it. Such cool thing just seeing the different shards and pieces scattered all over the place. It seemed like he wanted to spread the love of this tower.
When Simon Rodia stopped construction of the towers in 1954 because of controversies after WWII, vandalism and some abuse, he called it "Nuestro Pueblo" which is Spanish for "Our Town". Today, the city continues to preserve his works. Its community respect it highly. The Center of Watts District in LA, just few blocks from Watts Towers, feautres other Simon Rodia-inspired arts that were made from junks.
By the way, this really is not the usual art installation. It is right smack in a dead-end street.
I also saw this by their office … For my followers ….
It truly is a magnificent one of a kind LA sight especially given its location, its history, its underlying message to people, and the passion of Simon Rodia.
The Scientist
Come up to meet you.
Tell you I'm sorry.
You don't know how lovely you are.
I had to find you.
Tell you I need you.
Tell you I set you apart.
Running in circles, coming up tails.
Heads on a silence apart.
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions.
Oh let's go back to the start.
Nobody said it'd be easy.
No one ever said it would be this hard.
Oh take me back to the start.
I was just guessing at numbers and figures.
Pulling the, puzzles apart.
Questions of science, science and progress.
Do not speak as loud as heart.
Tell me you love me.
Come back and haunt me.
Oh and I rush back to the start.
Running in circles, chasing our tails.
Coming back as we are.
Nobody said it was easy.
Oh it's such a shame for us to part.
Nobody said it was easy.
No one ever said it would be this hard.
I'm going back to the start.

Aloha Hawaii!
You anticipate your return or departure. You already asked someone to meet you at the airport. You ate a tiny packet of peanuts on the plane. You bottle your thoughts and emotions inside you. And …. BAM! A lay-over.
My best lay-over was in Singapore dating back in 2006. We got to spend two days and one night there. I do not have pictures to show, but I remember my quick stay there so well.
My worst was in Narita, Japan. I was flying with Northwest Airline on my way to Philippines. The airline provided us a night a hotel room, but we couldn't get outside to wander around. People were so pissed that the flight got delayed. Their connection flights are screwed. Meeting their families was put on hold. Layovers can just really be frustrating.
Our company flight from Okinawa to California was a painful one as well. We had a lot of stops, and we had to wait for good hours during those stops. However, one of our stops was in Waikiki, Hawaii where got to stay in a fancy hotel paid by my company including our food!
All images are taken with Samsung S3.
We only had 8 hours there so our gander was very minimal. We just walked around the coconut-y streets …
Took a quick glance of the beach …
Ate at a restaurant where I ordered me a plate of Hawaiian fried rice.
Entered a souvenir shop where I bought a shot glass for me and a globe for my sister. Leis and Hawaiian shirts (duh!) are all over the place.
Our quick stay there was even cut shorter when it rained that afternoon. With no more change of clothes and the night was nearing, we just stayed at our hotel.
Last Call…
I never really planned nor thought of being in Hawaii so it was a very neat thing that I get to see it even just for a very short time. Another cool thing is that I have a good friend that's from Waikiki, Hawaii. It's just nice to actually see it after all the stories he's told me.
After a little more refreshments and hours to kill, we continued our journey back to sunny California…
So, what is your best and/or worst lay-over/airport stop?

Reflections (Part II): Sayonara Japan
I'm just going to mumble and jumble around on my reflections out of my stay in Okinawa.
1. It's a small world after all.
The world is big. There I was, landed in Okinawa, a very small part of Japan. And Japan, not in the slightest, has a very unique culture. One of their great attributes is really the fact that their traditions are still in tact. It's incredible. Even I cannot compare that to my own motherland. It makes me realize though that if you take a moment, even just a minute, to know someone who is far different from you, you will eventually find similarity, a common ground. That despite differences, we are all the same. That's a contradictory statement but that's what I got when I talked to this two friendly Japanese girls.
They were the one who approached me. I tried my best to understand what they were saying. They were scribbling down their notebooks. They have a lot of drawings, and poems written on it, both Japanese and English. I saw that they drew minions of the movie Despicable Me. I pulled out cellphone and showed them that I play the apps Minion Rush. They smiled and showed that they too play the same cell phone apps.
I'm not just talking about culture from culture. If you take a minute to communicate with someone maybe you don't get along, someone you feel awkward to talk to, or someone you even hate, you can find a commonality between each other. And then you can work on that common ground, explore it, expand it or dispose it. Either way, you find something and you define yourself among the others around you. If we can just listen, amidst barriers, difficulties and differences, you'll quickly realize there's a connection amongst us all.
2. Lost in Translation
It's sometimes frustrating not understanding signs or other people with different language other than yours. I, myself, even got mad at a taxi driver before. It was so difficult to communicate with him, he was smiling at our questions and I really felt like he was stalling us. It's awful to see the meter going up without an insurance that we would get to our destination so I really showed my frustration to that taxi driver. I really felt bad afterwards. You can find yourself easily lost when you approach a restaurant menu, a vending machine, an arcade game or looking at signs on the road. In the end, it made me realize how awesome it is to experience that. When you buy something or order at a restaurant, there's a lot of body movements and hand gestures that go on first before you get to your point. And that's amazing! I definitely extended my patience from being there.
One of my Featured Bloggers, Johanez Jonas, advised it best – Go to places where people don't know your language.
3. Live while we're young.
It happened during our first night out in Okinawa. There's this group of kids that were dancing to the tune of this pop song that in chorus it goes "Tonight, let's get some and live while we're young." All the kids were smiling, looking so happy as they dance and jump around, and they really just look so jaunty. It was so memorable. That moment was so infectious, I carried the message of the song and the smiles on their faces all throughout my stay in Okinawa. It added more on my zest for life, go-getter attitude.
[I don't have the picture of that particular group but I will upload it and edit this post when I can.]
4. May Peace Prevail on Earth
Japanese people are the nicest group of people I know. Coming here on the island, we were warned not to worry about our belongings if we left it inside a taxi. They will go out of their way to bring it back. I experienced and proved that when someone chased me up to when I was going down the stairs just to return back the money I overpaid. And they really are just very well-mannered people. These are things I just don't expect in other countries or areas I've ever been to. It's even more exponentially admirable, amenable to think that they had a horrible part in history. Today, Japanese will tell you that the bombing of Pearl Harbor is the most humilitating part of history they wish to never happen again.
I guess, we all can really learn from them.
Some more of Okinawa …
Although Linda Arthur Tejera of Living With My Ancestors just recently bought a fancy camera, my favorite post from this prolofic photo challenge machine is this set of iPhone pics.
Reflections (Part I): Okinawa is excessive!
I'm not kidding you. With conviction, Okinawa is excessive!
But before anything else, I'd like to announce a little something…
The Sophomore Slump is a candidate to a Best Photo Blog poll. You can find the link on the widget, or here-> munchow.wordpress.com/2014/02/08/best-photo-blogs-round-5/. I'm definitely included there as an underdog. The competition is fierce as the others are real legit photographers. With that being said, if you don't vote for me it's understandable. For those who already voted for me, thank you. For those who didn't, I will hold you accountable.
Done with your vote? Moving on …
This is not just for my summary post of Okinawa. From my observation I can seriously say that Okinawa is excessive. Ridiculously excessive, I should say. It has been my observation ever since and it proved continually the entire 6 months of my stay here. But it is over-the-top all in a good way.
All I mention here has its own post. If you see something you like and want to find more about it, go to search tab and type the necessary words. I'm tired of linking my posts.
- 277,000! people participated in pulling this giant rope that weighs over 40 tons and extends over 650 feet! It's the largest tug of war in the world starting in 1997.
The rope which is made from rice straw was recorded in Guinness Book of Records as the longest rope made from natural material.
- Churaumi Aquarium is what once the largest aquarium in the world for quite a while until others caught up. It still raising the bar being the third largest, and its tank, Kuroshio, now ranks the second. It houses 3 of the largest fish in the world, the great whale shark.
Japan has ridiculously so many festivals and other observations, and Okinawans are real festival people. Okinawa hosts most matsuri during summer and the periods of Obon. Even the Tug of War event is considered "festival".
- I loved going to festivals myself as it really showcases a lot of their culture and tradition. Shishi-mai (Lion Dance) "Festival" is actually a cultural show more than a festival. This festival, though an impressive one to witness, took too long for their audience to sit on. A lot of people stood up before it finished.
Just like the mainland Japan, vending machine in Okinawa is ridiculously everywhere. You can see in places you wouldn't think no one would use.
- Shisa in Okinawa is everywhere as well. Shisa are displayed in the entrance of houses and establishments to ward off bad evil and keep good evil in.
To see more and find out what Shisa is all about, do so yourself and go to the Search tab.
- There are a little over a million (a million!) of staglamites/staglatites in Gyokusendo Cave in Okinawa World.
- Cherry Blossoms (for lack of a better word) blossom here in Okinawa as early as the second week of January while the rests of Japan have to wait til March or April. Ridiculous, but oh so neat.
- Sorry folks, I didn't get to the Sunflower "Festival". The weather just didn't cooperate. The sunflowers are incredibly tall and plenty. It would have been an awesome sight.
- During Christmas time, there are plenty of places to witness light illuminations. Just one area usually equals the number of lights with the Okinawan population. How many? Only about 1.1 - 1.4 Million lights, that's all. I got to see the light illumination in Southeast Botanical Garden.
- In most of the events and places I've been to while exploring Okinawa, they love showcasing parts of their culture. Sanshin and taiko drums are overly used, and I am not at all complaining. Eisa is my most favorite thing in Okinawa. They hosts the 10,000 Eisa Dancers Festival.
Rain or shine, the festival must go on.
See I told you. The numbers are there to prove it. For such a tiny island, Okinawa is ridiculously excessive!

Cape Kyan: The Southernmost End of Okinawa, or Quietude in Okinawa
I always hear the traditional Okinawan folk music some place nearby when I'm at work. It sounds peaceful, solemn, oracular. I know somewhere in this island, some of the locals are either kneeling or bowing down their heads to honor spirits. When the new year starts, the rests of the world light fireworks while Japan welcomes it with quiet worships to shrines, temples, or even domestic. The poets are writing haikus as another New Year tradition. Cities of Okinawa may be flourishing with modernity, exposed with American influences, or bustling with their daily work, but there is a definite serenity in the air. There's an old woman sitting down on a bench, looking at trees or the green grass at the park. There's a kid rolling his bike's wheels down the streets. There's noodles boiling on the stove waiting to be served in just a few minutes. A Japanese girl is giggling, barely laughing. They're conservative, reserved, and polite. It is considered rude to play loud music in public. Except during festivals, or when thundering taiko drums are booming by its beats and the performers yell out "Ha ii yah". Even then, it's something of a ritual. Okinawan traditions are still in tact, and continues in a routine basis. The true Okinawa lifestyle can never stripped from it. The slippers are left on the doorsteps, bare feet touching the wooden floors. The old will remain. The leaves of the trees in the jungle areas will continually sing with the wind. That sound of Okinawan instrument, sanshin, plays fluidly with the nature's sounds. There really is a certain tranquility feel enveloping this island.
Naha and Nago are in opposite ends of Okinawa. There are definite comparisons to both, but they are not completely opposite. One can experience both sides of the spectrum in each end.
Nago (North) is much closer to nature while Naha (South) is more concreted.
- NAHA (South), the capital city of Okinawa Prefecture -
This is much to what Japan is about. It's a land of juxtaposition, a country of great contrasts.
After having so much fun during our spontaneous joyride adventure to Cape Hedo, the northernmost end, it was only a matter time that I explored a planned trip to Cape Kyan, the southernmost tip of Okinawa. The irony couldn't be any funnier. Our serendipitous exploration to Cape Hedo was smooth while our planned trip to Cape Kyan turned out to be a series of disastrous mistakes. To cut the story short, we had a map but we just couldn't find make our way there. It was an adventure nonetheless. Although, it really worried me that we may not find it in time. The sun was starting to set. The cloud was getting gloomier. Luck did find us and we rolled to a stop before everything gotten dark.
Even though it was planned, none of us really knew what we were going to expect to see when we got there. Due to time constriction, we didn't get to the lighthouse. The lighthouse was within our sight. So close! We particularly got to Gushikawa Castle Ruins. Instead of the lighthouse, we saw small caves.
Last Calls …
This side of a more tranquil Naha shares a grim historical part of the Battle of Okinawa. Some of the final bouts of Battle of Okinawa took place here, and where many Japanese soldiers and civilian jumped off the cliff committing suicide.

I can almost hear quietude screaming its lungs out.

Throwback Thursday: Asia in California
It started with a series of Flashback Friday posts where, while I was in California, I get to turn back the time and revisit some of my travel destinations in Europe and Philippines. Then it now continues with Throwback Thursday where, while I'm here in Japan, I get to turn back the time and revisit some of my travel destinations in California. And now that my time here is coming to an end, this will be the last of my Throwback Thursday post. In February, for now, I will be revisiting my time here in Japan, and even older travel destiantions, when I get to California, and I will call it Memory Monday.
Remember Europe in California? Well here is the Asia version…
California is arguably the most racially diverse state in the nation. You get in a place, look around, and you'll never find just one racial group. Here, it isn't difficult to cross-culture. I have a pleasure of knowing that I have plenty of options to satisfy wherever my desire and imagination decide to go or be. I can walk to the end of my street, and I can choose what kind of cuisine to eat. On the way, I can come across people of different backgrounds. I can travel further a mile or two, and it's as if I can get transported somewhere else in the world.
The above image is taken from Chinatown in LA. Perhaps the easily recognizable place to go to experience Asian culture in California are Chinatowns in both LA and San Francisco.
Let's go to Japan in California…
Out of the 16 museums in Balboa Park in San Diego, my personal favorite is Mingei International Museum. They have a really nice display portion for Japan culture.
California has Chinatown, Filipinotown, Koreatown, Little Tokyo, and even Little Italy.
Karaoke singing at the center stage, Habachi dining, Hello Kitty/Sanrio shops, and wish paper are some of the things you can experience in Little Tokyo.
This next one is from Los Angeles Contemporary Museum of Arts…
Moving on. My most favorite Asian places in California happens to be my first travel destination when I got back to California in 2011….
…Hsi Lai Temple.It's so amazing that this hidden Asian gem is sitting atop a hill amongst the modernized, bustling city of LA.
You see, it's very easy to cross-culture in California. It may not be the same, but it's just an awesome thing to know that you can go to and experience an entirely different environment without crossing over seas.
Last Calls…
So do you know where the Asian places in your area? If not, I think it's time for you to do some research.
Cross-culture in SoCAL?

You can see Korean Friendship Bell, Japanese Pavilion in LACMA, Noodle Soup restaurant, Irish Dance Costumes, Brazilian Dance, Vietnamese Exhibit in Pico House Gallery, Dia De Los Muertos Gallery and Pacific Asia Museum, just some of their cross-culture sightings. My favorite, however, is a post that shows pictures of Kat's grandma.
Food and Travel II
How much is food a part of your travel? What's your most notable food exploration amongst all your travels?
I love this next featured blog. Learn so much more about Japan culture and traditions from an English-learning Japanese blogger, milukiriu. Read fascinating information and stories, myths and histories. Watch some festival videos. Experience their Japanese holiday tradition and celebration style, and its differences from other culture. Milu's Dream Traveler is one of my few favorite Japanese blogs.
Some people would say, "What is travel without food". I say it's still a travel. My blog shows evidences that food is not a big part of my travels. Being a very spontaneous, shoot-from-the-hip kind of guy I just let the chips fall where they may. I don't plan on what I was going to eat when I travel. I'm actually stingy with food when I travel. I sometimes just bring a lunch box before I head out. I am no epicurean. I even buy those taquitos, hotdog or small burger at gas stations because they're filling for such small price. If you eat near your travel destination, you expect the cost to be higher than regular. I sure can sacrifice food in replacement to other travel expenses.
There's an exception to every rule, of course. That means, there must also be an exception to the rule that every rule has an exception. Unless the food exploration is the travel destination itself, then I'm all for it!
Itadakimasu! (Let's eat!) This is Food and Travel, Japanese version.
One of the most well-known festival food here in Okinawa is takoyaki or octopus balls. Don't get excited. These are not actually "crown jewels". They are just octopus meat in a shape of a ball. These balls don't dribble either. However, these balls do come in a very satisfying package. Not my liking, but definitely worth the try when in Okinawa. The takoyaki, that is.
Most festival stalls also sell churros (better believe it, although it's more like a snack junk food) grilled meat on a stick, fries, corn, and this delicious noodles …
Moving on…
One of the biggest surprises for me coming here in Japan is their sushi. Apparently, I don't pay too much attention to details when I watch Japanese movies or movies set in Japan. When I first ordered sushi here in Okinawa, I was expecting the typical traditional sushi roll. Instead, they served me this…
… A nigiri-zushi. To me that is sashimi (raw meat), which I didn't really eat, up to that point. The only thing that separates sashimi and sushi is that sushi has rice with it. One thing you must know about me is that my biggest pet peeves is wasting food, so it was a big challenge for me to eat that plate. It even has wasabi in between the raw fish and the rice.
I shamefully didn't finish that set because of the raw fish. Although, after a few more sushi places I've grown to love this kind of sushi.
That's my shrimp sushi on a boat. When one sushi jumped out, I called out "Sushi Overboard!".
I love sushi but they are expensive in the US. Over here, it's cheaper, and they offer more combinations in one order.
Last one…
Mochi! (Rice Balls!) It's a traditional food usually served during New Year. The first time I tried it, we actually made it from scratch. It was so much fun. We pounded it, dipped it in kinako (grains of soy beans), formed it into balls, stuffed it with anko (sweet beans), and then we served it to Japanese school children. I took home some for me…
That day, some Japanese men also offered me to eat sweet azuki bean soup with mochi balls in it. It's a familiar warming soup for the winter breeze. I rubbed my belly to show how I'm loving the food and how full I was, but they immediately freaked a little and pointed me the direction to the restroom.
Last Call…
Just my girly dessert from a buffet…
All images are taken with Samsung S3.
I started doing this two days ago thinking it's going to be easy peasy. This is to respond to Paula's B&W photo challenge. One attempt after another, I kept on experimenting. As it turns out, it's not as simple as just tipping down the scale to zero saturation level. There's a lot more to explore and a lot more room to play with. I can just imagine for those who improve their images using HDR and how time-consuming they do their magic. Turning your images into monochromatic or achromatic palette can be laborious if you really want to achieve the best results. Although, exploration for your options and trying out what kind images work for this setting is such a fun process.
There are obvious reasons with turning images into Black and White. Fair to middling images can suddenly become very usable.
One of the definite benefits of dis-colorizing an image is minimizing distractions. When there's a lot into one picture, you can shift the focus on your main subject, making it pop, when you turn it to B&W.
I think stage performances blend well when taking away colors.
It's easy to take a liking to B&W images. The bottom line though is that you are stripping away the colors, and by doing so, it sucks the life out of it.
Especially with flowers and other colorful objects.
A delicious meal doesn't appeal much to taste anymore as much as it appears more to be an art form. I can assure you though, that meal is art you can deliciously eat.
You put a colored one beside a non-colored image. Intentionally or unintentionally, B&W images can evoke emotions of being bland, unstimulating and desolating.
If your image is already sad, then you're golden!
That is not to say that an image can't remain lively even after modifying it into B&W per se.
The hardest part for me are the ones with extreme light.
The suprising results for me during my own experiments are actually cloud and landscape images.
Lastly, of course, inanimate and mundane, rural and urban scenes, and images with vintage feel and presence are always good with pictures turned into monochromatic to achromatic photography.
Sorry for the photo overload. Here's more…
I think there's a higher level of decision-making, if there such thing, whether you want to initially introduce an image with color or B&W. Photo editing, and how you approach your image, gives a much different impact or effect, esp. with B&W. Not to "put light out" of B&W but even the images here, the results may look good, but really, I feel hesitant to remove colors from these images. Well, it also relies heavily on the right picture to do B&W effect with. Given the right picture and the right touch (or play), B&W can certainly turn regular pictures into obscure, eye-catching, artful, actual photography.

Report: Air India can't pay for its Dreamliners
- Daniel McCoy
- Reporter
The Boeing Co. is slated to deliver the first 787 Dreamliner for commercial use later this month and, for its part, All Nippon Airways is playing the role of the happy launch customer.
But with the Dreamliner now three years behind schedule, not all of Boeing's customers are happy.
And at least one of them, Air India, may not even be able to pay for the aircraft.
According to a report from Aviation Week, Air India says it has no money to pay for the 27 Dreamliners it has on order.
And the delay from Boeing in getting the 787 program off the ground is a major reason why.
According to the report, India's comptroller and auditor general wrote as part of a parliamentary inquiry into the cash-strapped airline's expansion plans that "the decision to acquire a large number of aircraft was risky and has contributed predominantly to the airline's massive debt liability," and that fleet acquisition took an "unduly long time."
The Aviation Week report says India's Civil Aviation Minister, Vayalar Ravi, wouldn't specify what would happen with the orders, only that "I don't have the money to pay."
Air India has called out Boeing on the cost of the Dreamliner delay before, saying it has been a $1 billion hit to the airline.
Boeing, which won't discuss the issue publicly, has reportedly offered to cover as much as half of that cost.
The 27 Dreamliners Air India has on order would be worth about $5 billion at list prices.

Published: Friday, Dec. 27, 2013, 11:36 p.m.
Aaron Donald put his big, right arm around Pitt coach Paul Chryst and, with meaning, patted him on the back.
Pitt's All-American defensive tackle had just played his final game in a richly decorated career, and in his eyes, Donald is leaving the program in good hands.
"For the younger guys, for next year, it gives you something to build off of," said Donald after Pitt's 30-27 victory against MAC champion Bowling Green. "To know that the program is going to be back on top with coach Chryst. That's a guarantee."
Sorry, there are no guarantees in sports.
"Each year is a different year," Chryst said.
For all the euphoria and smiles from players and coaches after an exhilarating victory, Chryst is a .500 coach (13-13) in his first two Pitt seasons. The team that beat Bowling Green lost four of its final six regular-season games. It also struggled on the local recruiting trail this year.
Still, the 2013 season marked a culture change for Pitt that Chryst should — but won't — take credit for generating. No longer do players sit around feeling sorry for themselves, waiting for something bad to happen. Their coach won't tolerate those who worry about matters out of their control.
Pitt played the bowl game without three starting offensive linemen, senior wide receiver Devin Street and junior Bryan Murphy, the team's best defensive end. No problem. It totaled 487 yards of offense and a season-high seven quarterback sacks, most of it by underclassmen.
Four freshmen — quarterback Chad Voytik (a redshirt), wide receiver Tyler Boyd, running back James Conner and kicker Chris Blewitt — made the decisive plays.
"You definitely feel like the future is bright," Conner said. "I love playing next to Tyler and love watching him play. He always makes SportsCenter top 10 highlight plays, so he's fun to watch, and he's fun to play with. Chris has a big foot, and he helps us out. And Chad was awesome coming in for Tom. With us four making some noise and some of the redshirt guys coming in next year, the program's definitely in good hands, especially with coach Chryst being our head coach. The future is bright."
Several other first-year players such as right guard Dorian Johnson, defensive end Shakir Soto, linebacker Matt Galambos and defensive backs Titus Howard and Terrish Webb were shoved into important positions throughout the season.
"I am excited about the future," Chryst said.
Now, there's an upset.
For Chryst to express excitement says more than any victory could. He is understated to a fault, never getting too generous with praise, but always giving his players the chance to prove their worth.
Boyd finished with 85 receptions for 1,174 yards — the most catches by a Pitt player since Larry Fitzgerald in 2003 and the most yards since Jon Baldwin in 2009.
Conner, who also played backup defensive end against Bowling Green and induced an offensive holding call late in the game, led the team in rushing yards — 799 to 797 —over junior Isaac Bennett.
Freshman Rachid Ibrahim also was part of the mix. With two running backs in the Class of 2014, including four-star Chris James, there is the potential for good depth at the position, even after losing Washington High's Shai McKenzie to Virginia Tech.
Meanwhile, Voytik answered some questions at quarterback by playing with poise, making two important runs (20 yards and 4 for a touchdown) and completing a 62-yard strike to Boyd in the fourth quarter.
"You can't ask for much more, young talent and years to play with them," he said.
Voytik came off the bench cold, grabbed his teammates by the collar and helped will them to victory.
"Guys needed him, and guys rallied around him," Chryst said. "That's what a team does."

We ought to be mature enough to pursue a healthy lifestyle on our own without an employer having to encourage us to do so. Eat right, do some walking or treadmill work, whatever. It's not that hard. Just quit being so d... lazy. Preaching to myself as well.

Mine offered a discount on employee memberships at a local gym years ago. It was discontinued since no one took advantage of it as it would have interferred with their drug usage and hangovers. Bunch of maroons.
Kirk Larson 2 years, 7 months ago
It's smart for employers to offer such programs, It cuts down on health related absenteeism and reduces premiums for health plans by preventing illness.
domino 2 years, 7 months ago
There wasn't an option for "Yes & No" - Company I work for has facilities in 2 places - the main facility is located in a town that has a Fitness Center so the employees get a discount there if they use it at least XX number of times per month. At the secondary facility, in the smaller town where I am, there is no such type of facility, so we don't have that option. So when the weather is nice, I often walk the mile to work, walk home at lunch, eat a quick bite, walk back then walk home after work. Saves on short trips of gas, too!

Would we gain 10 pounds?
Over at XO Jane, Jacqueline Burt writes that that - gaining 10 pounds, silently and gracefully - is exactly what she would to do protect her 12-year-old daughter from hating her body.
Ms. Burt writes compellingly that her own mother's comments and efforts to keep her from going through that "awkward chubby phase" as an adolescent are the reason she developed the eating disorder that still plagues her and causes her much anxiety. The restraint she exercises in trying to break the cycle and let her daughter learn to love her body the way that it is, is admirable. Ms. Burt's piece is beautiful and powerful - and opens the door to a great conversation that I feel needs to be continued.

Ms. Burt says she has tried to remove all traces of "sustenance-related self-loathing" from her speech and actions, thinking, perhaps, that keeping her mouth shut will prevent those messages from getting to her daughter's ears. But I wonder if she has also engaged in conversation about the images her daughter is bombarded with as she walks through stores or watches TV. Have they discussed why it is better to choose a salad over a bag of potato chips - and mentioned reasons that have nothing to do with waist sizes and everything to do with feeding your body healthy food so that it functions well for years to come? I have my doubts that the solution to developing a healthy body image is simply silence on the subject of bodies, and fat and food.
I commend and admire Ms. Burt's ability to let her body gain the 10 pounds that it needs to be healthy, but I think there is room for another conversation here about accepting our bodies for what they are now and also trying to help them be the best they can be. There's more at stake than a pre-teen girl feeling good about the body she has; if we don't talk to our daughters about making healthy choices (salads over potato chips), we're doing them a disservice. But if we don't talk to them about taking charge and changing things don't like about themselves, then we're disempowering, even crippling, them.
Now, I relate to Ms. Burt's struggle on many levels. While I don't think I have an eating disorder, it is something that I consciously and continuously fight. And while the instances of my mother making direct comments about my weight were few and far between, the general feeling in the home was such that New Year's resolutions from the time I was a pre-teen included pacts between my sisters and I to eat less, workout more, and lose weight - even though we were not even a little bit outside of the "healthy" zones for our heights and were still growing. In fact, I come from a line of women who were very aware of their weight and health. Some of them kept perspective on the issue and lived normal lives to the end, while others did not. (It sounds as though Ms. Burt may have a genetic heritage of body issues as well.)
I also have three kids (two sons and a daughter) whom I am trying to teach healthy habits and body confidence to - and part of my strategy to this point has been similar to Ms. Burt's: I don't say anything bad about my body in front of them. I eat what I like to eat and don't talk about being on a diet or needing to workout to maintain my figure. When I talk about food, it's usually something about the good things that broccoli does for our bodies and why we only have sweets a couple of times a week. And while my daughter, at 17 months, is still a decade or so away from being aware of thigh gaps and belly rolls (I hope), this issue has been on my mind since well before she was conceived: how can I protect her from hating her body?
I obviously don't have the answers - yet. But I do have a plan. And that is to teach her that her body is not the enemy. It is not a mystery, not a curse. Her body is hers to take care of, to own and to nurture. She needs to know that there are things she can do to make it the best it can be, and to function at its highest level. She can - and should - do those things. And if she does them - keeps herself healthy and able - then there's no reason to look at herself with anything but love.

Published: Monday January 6, 2014 MYT 12:00:00 AM Updated: Wednesday January 8, 2014 MYT 2:48:46 PM
KLANG: Cool heads prevailed as the anticipated intention by Muslim groups to protest outside several churches in the state over the use of the word "Allah" by non-Muslims simmered down.
A coalition of Muslim non-governmental organisations, however, staged a peaceful protest at the Sultan Sulaiman Stadium, about a kilometre from the Our Lady of Lourdes Church here yesterday, but there were no confrontations.
The 8am Mass at the church was packed with more people than usual attending the service.
A small group comprising people of various beliefs also gathered outside the church at about 8.30am to show their support to the Christian community.
Its members handed bouquets of flowers to the parish priest, Father Michael Chua, after the Mass.
Social activist Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir, who was among them, said the show of solidarity by Malaysians of different religions and races with the Christians demonstrated that Malaysians were united.
"We will resist any attempt to disunite us," said Marina, who is also a National Unity Consultative Council (NUCC) member.
She said the majority of Malaysians were beyond the apparent strife and questioned the absence of the country's leadership at such a time.
"They (the people in authority) have been letting this happen. They should speak up. Our leadership should not be silent.
"Parishioners at the church were relieved that the planned protest did not take place."
Flight supervisor John Johnson, 58, said he was happy that churchgoers were not disturbed during their time of worship.
"It is also nice to see people of other beliefs showing their support," he said.
Meanwhile, at St Anne's in Port Klang, the first Sunday Mass of the year saw the church filled to the brim by parishioners. It was standing room only for those who arrived late.
Father Lawrence Andrew, the editor of the Catholic weekly The Herald, delivered his sermon in English and Bahasa Malaysia.
Father Lawrence, who appeared calm during the service and after, said he was happy with the turnout and thanked the police for monitoring the situation outside the church.

Morning at the Office. Occupied in digesting my Notes about the Middlesex Canal, but I was much interrupted. My friend, Mr. Tarbell, brought me a little debt to collect which is the first Act I have performed in the way of my profession. It put me in pretty good spirits. I this day paid Mr. Ward for one quarter's occupation of my Office, for which I have not yet been reimbursed. After dinner, I spent some time with Abby at Mrs. Frothingham's, pleasantly enough. A violent snow storm came on so that I remained at the Office only a few minutes and remained at home in the evening. Mr. Tufts
