Running Injuries: Give It a Rest
Running is one of the best fitness activities you can do for your body. It also gives your body a beating unlike any other endurance sport. Most habitual runners have experienced some kind of injury, whether it is a minor muscle strain or chronic knee pain. Mention Achilles tendinopathy or plantar fasciitis in a room full of runners, and you are sure to get plenty of knowing looks.
Fortunately, most running injuries are treatable with rest, rehabilitation, and/or careful management.
Too Much Running
Most running injuries result from running too much too fast. Try to take a day off in between runs and build up your running time slowly. Consider alternating other activities, like weight training or biking, with running.
If you become injured, it is important to deal with it and treat it—even if that means cutting back or taking time off from running. Whether you are just starting out or have running experience, take some time to familiarize yourself with common injuries and how to prevent them.
Shin Splints
Shin splints —which occur when the tissue that connects the lower leg muscles to the lining of the tibia becomes irritated and inflamed—are especially common in beginning runners.Changing the surface you run on (from indoor surfaces to pavement), running on a tight circular track, and changes in intensity or frequency can lead to shin splints. You can also get shin splints if you have flat feet, rigid arches, or are wearing worn out athletic shoes.
To treat shinsplints, ice the sore area for up to 20 minutes at a time. You should be pain free for two weeks before going back to running. When you do run again, start slowly and build up. Do not jump back into the same routine you had before your injury.
Knee Injuries
In running, these are usually chronic overuse injuries. Most runners experience either lateral pain or patellar pain. Knee injuries can be caused by improper running form, wearing the wrong athletic shoes, or running too much when your body is not ready. You can help prevent knee injuries by performing stretching and strengthening exercises for the hip and thigh areas, slowly building up your running time, and using proper form.
Most knee injuries can be treated with rest and ice. Do not start running until your knee pain is gone and you get clearance to start again from your doctor. If your knee pain does not disappear with rest and ice, you may have a more serious injury. It may require further treatment and/or physical therapy.
Hamstring Injuries
Many runners have fairly tight hamstrings, which could mean more susceptibility to pulls and tears. If you experience hamstring pain, rest and ice will be your first line of treatment. Once the pain has resolved, perform strengthening and stretching exercises and easing back into activity as tolerated. For Then you will need to strengthen the hamstrings.
Achilles Tendinopathy (Tendonitis or Tendinosis)
Tendonitis is an inflammation of the tendon, while tendinosis involves microtears without inflammation. Although tendonitis is a less common injury than tendinosis, both can sideline your running game. Common causes are overuse, poor running technique and problems with the foot or ankle (like poor flexibility). Be aware that worn out, ill-fitting athletic shoes can contribute to these injuries.
Treatment is based on icing and resting the tendon. Recovery often involves a stretching program or physical therapy. Do not start running again until you are cleared by your doctor.
Low Back Pain
Some runners experience tightness and pain in their lower backs. This, like most running injuries, can be caused by the wrong or worn out shoes or incorrect form. Try strengthening your core muscles (back and abdominal muscles) and stretching your lower back. Consider changing to a softer running surface or alternating your running with other activities.
Got to Be the Shoes
Many experts suggest that running injuries often result from wearing the wrong shoes. While lacing up the right pair of sneakers will not turn you into a superstar, it could save you pain and suffering down the road.
The goal is to find a shoe that allows you a neutral foot strike. If you tend to overpronate or oversupinate, you want to find a shoe that helps you back to the neutral position. Go to a store that specializes in running shoes. They will look at how you run and analyze the wear on your old running shoes. From there, they should be able to suggest a running shoe that is appropriate for you.
If you are an active runner, remember to change your athletic shoes every 400-500 miles. Finally, buy shoes in the evening when your feet are at their biggest. Too-tight shoes are a pain—literally.
Healthy Habits
Running does not have to hurt. While it is true that the more you run, the more at risk you are for injury, some runners do manage to avoid getting hobbled by pain.
Develop running habits that keep you injury free.
- Always begin your run with a warm-up. Start slowly and stay at a slow pace for the first 10 to 15 minutes of your run
- Buy the right shoes. Replace them before they get worn out.
- Do not run every day. Take days off and cross train.
- Do not try to run too fast. Build your ability to run distances before you try to run those distances fast.
- Do not run too much before you are ready. Give your body time to get accustomed to running and its demands.
- Rest. It is okay to take days off, especially if you have an injury. Take a few days off while the injury is minor instead of running through the pain and being sidelined for months down the road.

Umberto Eco, deconstructor of football
Umberto Eco, 75, hung over from jet lag and downing Macallan whisky on doctor's orders, parries with Financial Times writer Jan Dalley (Dec 15). Despite a gamut of conversation, from potential fiction projects to beauty to the yoke of slavery accepted when cracking open a lobster claw, Eco flirts just twice with football-related chatter.
The first comes during a discourse on charm when the University of Bologna semiotician, now retired, acknowledges the lures of AC Milan owner and former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. "[He] is a midget," says Eco, "but he has charm."
Eco considers that his own fame in Italy devolves from one comment in the early 1960s regarding civilization's compulsion to "worship superior beings—the Greek gods, the knights of the round table, superheroes." But television has mediated the desire, such that models, unlike the incomparable Greta Garbo, now "look like everyone else" and fallen individuals gain prominence so that "everybody can exercise his own sense of superiority." We are uncertain, though, if footballers fit into the same paradigm.
Yet Eco has written, in the essay "The World Cup and Its Pomps," that, to him, football long has been "linked with the absence of purpose and the vanity of all things." We write on May 27: "The football supporter, according to Eco, is a voyeur—nonparticipant—compensating for the ennui of routine by focusing on a game that, like Groundhog Day, is structured to repeat on successive weekends, for seasons on end."
Given that mundane life-sustaining tasks—such as hammering open a crustacean to harvest its succulent meat—constitute slavery in Eco's system, this must be all the more true when watching soccer on TV. For having watched and enjoyed Arsenal-Chelsea on Sunday, therefore, we feel a sense of shame rising.
Cancel the Christmas lobster, let's go pluck some berries.

- Challenging notions of development and change from everyday life in Africa (2013)
- The fourth volume of BIGSASworks! seeks to present the interdependence of paradigms and practices in global, national, and local spheres from different disciplinary perspectives and foci - Social Anthropology, Geography, Media Studies, Political Sciences and Sociology. The contributing papers present various ways in which the daily livelihood activities of community people in different parts of Africa represent this interdependence. Together and in interlinked ways, the authors address the question of how global development paradigms affect people's lives, what meanings are there in the everyday things people do to live that may synchronise or be at variance with these global paradigms. The contributing papers challenge us all to take another look at our approach to development in Africa and its entanglements with broader forces.

- East African Muslims After 9/11 (2005)
- Much has been said about 9/11, but little research has been done on the impact the events had on Africa. This paper explores how Muslims in East Africa view the terrorist attacks of 9/11. Particular attention will be given to the case of Kenya. What were the effects and consequences of 9/11 for Muslim communities there? How do they perceive the "war on terrorism", how did the changing configuration of geopolitics in the aftermath of 9/11 affect their lives and attitudes? What are the future prospects of Christian- Muslim understanding in East Africa? The paper argues that the initial sentiment of sympathy with the victims has been replaced by the rise of anti-American attitudes among the East African Muslim population. Although this tendency will probably continue as long as policy makers think of anti-Americanism in terms of an "image problem", the impact of 9/11 on East Africa will in the long run not depend on global issues, but on the course of political and religious developments on the national and local levels.

- Negotiating Performance: Osun in the Verbal and Visual Metaphors (2005)
- Ajibade Olusola's thesis examines the dialectics of the localization and globalisation of the Osun cult, while appreciating its transformation into a deity of international repute. In understanding the transformation of Osun cult into a deity of national and international repute, the study investigates the roles of motifs and visual arts that were found to be crucial to the transformation process. In the analysis and interpretation of the data, the study identifies Osun as a personification of Yoruba women. This was evidenced in the materials collected, particularly the motifs and the visual arts, and equally discernible in the oral and other primary sources. Both the poetry and visual arts emerged as conceptual paradigms to project the power, prowess and image of Osun as a deity in the Yoruba pantheon of Orisa (deities). His analysis facilitates and enhances our understanding of the faith, fate, philosophy, perceptions and attitudes of the adherents of Osun cult in relation to its impact on the people locally and globally. It also reveals the intricate interplay between the verbal (word) and the visual (image) domains in Yoruba aesthetic practice. Negotiating Performance explicates the transformation of Osun cult in Osogbo from a local to an international phenomenon, principally through the slave trade of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and also through the appreciation of Osun visual art by an ever-growing international audience.

- The making of meaning in Africa : Word, Image and Sound (2013)
- The Making of Meaning in Africa; Word, Image and Sound Duncan Omanga and Gilbert Ndi Shang The present collection addresses the intricate ways in which events, processes and phenomena are apprehended and reproduced in Africa by graduate students at BIGSAS. Inasmuch as the contributions fall under the gamut of media, literary, linguistic and translation studies, they are all underlined by an investigative quest for the understanding of meaning making processes in Africa. The papers in this volume therefore attempt to offer a glimpse into some of these processes of meaning making in the continent.

- Theory and Practice of Reconciliation in Rwanda (2009)
- During recent years, scholars working on the peacebuilding process in Rwanda have often tended to single out specific aspects, for instance judicial responses to the genocide. Little research has been done, however, on the diversity of approaches that constitute the "reconciliation landscape" in Rwanda today. Basing itself on data from field research in 2006, this paper seeks to shed some light on the many programmes carried out in Rwanda related to reconciliation work. Emphasis is put on two case studies. While establishing a theoretical framework of the reconciliation process in the first part of the paper, the following chapters attempt to explain how this relates to the practice of reconciliation in the Rwandan context. The data collected suggest that in the face of political constraints, the Rwandan government must in part rely on civil society actors for the achievement of their goals of "unity and reconciliation". The multitude of initiatives from actors with a wide range of motivations and approaches should be seen as complementary, while some may have to make up for the shortcomings and constraints of others.

- Trade unions and the informal economy in Zambia: Building strength or loosing ground? (2007)
- The increasing casualisation of labour forces trade unions globally to deal with a growing number of unprotected and unrepresented workers in what is dubbed by the unions, even if critically, as the informal economy. This paper assesses the impact and further potential of a direct and indirect intervention of the Zambian labour movement towards the informal economy, according to basic criteria like skills development, networking, innovation capacity and access to finance for micro-entrepreneurs. Through providing business development services, the unions also encourage informal sector organizations to associate themselves with Zambia Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), thereby strengthening the socio-political representation of the informal economy workers and the labour union movement as a whole. It still remains to be seen, however, to which extent NGO-like approaches that seem to be vital when opening towards the informal economy might compromise basic principles of the labour movement like effective, yet democratic and transparent structures based on mass membership.

- Trends, Discourses and Representations in Religions in Africa (2012)
- Religion in Africa has for long been a woven cultural fabric of life, a great moving force that guided people's behavior, interaction and action since time immemorial. A decade after the United States experience of the 9/11, the unfortunate event has set the landmark for a geopolitics in contemporary Africa that securitizes religious movements and that identify them with the so-called global war on terror, a phenomenon within which most African nations play a significant regional role. The current wave of developments related to religion in the contingent became fossilized through religious manipulation and politicization in the post-colonial era. Three thematic concepts have been identified, i.e., religious trends, cultural discourses and representation, in order to capture some of the most contemporary issues of concern to Muslim, Christian and indigenous religious communities in Africa. Nine papers in this second issue of BIGSAS Works! hence targeted current doctoral researches from a wide range of disciplines and successfully integrated a cross-disciplinary approach to appreciate the complexity of faith matters in the continent.

- Women's Life Worlds 'In-Between' (2011)
- This volume of Bayreuth African Studies Working Papers authored and edited by doctoral students of the Bayreuth International Graduate School of African Studies (BIGSAS) represents challenges and (im-)possibilities of reviewing women's life worlds in Africa. Therewith we revive an old debate: African thinkers opposed Western concepts, searching for a kind of feminism beyond traditional roles and beyond Western feminism, which basically antagonizes women's subordination due to patriarchy. Thus, if African women have different positions to Western feminism, how do they perceive themselves? To what extent are women expanding their social, political or economic realm? Does this change result in a re-definition of gender roles? How do women in Africa deal with gendered hierarchies and authority? Are there conflicts or 'in-betweens' among 'traditional roles' and the behavior of women? All these questions surround one core content: women's life worlds 'in-between'. 'In-betweenness' refers here to a situation when the life worlds of women transform, resulting from social, political, economic or environmental changes or uncertainties. In such a situation women negotiate between conflicting or contradictory assumed norms, roles, social practices or orders. Opportunities for women may change, expand or become limited. For example, women can rethink their roles and behavior, be it temporary or in long term perspectives. Following this view the authors focus on situations of 'in-betweenness' of women in different African countries and in diverse realms of life. Literary scholar Samuel Ndogo analyzes the autobiography of an exceptional Kenyan author and activist: Wangari Maathai. The title of her autobiography, Unbowed (2006), already suggests friction between her life trajectory and cultural notions of womanhood. However, the title also shows pride at having withstood opposition, which at the same time contests a society's readiness to tolerate an exception. Katharina Nambula's paper shares Ndogo's perspective of Literature Studies and shows how the female protagonists in Waiting, written by Goretti Kyomuhendo (2007), survive in a politically instable and male dominated society during the reign of Idi Amin in Uganda. Facing the men's inability to sort out the chaos, Kyomuhendo's female characters temporarily deploy their hidden strengths to resume some order. As soon as men re-enter their former positions though, gender relations are back to normal. Other aspects of uncertainty and how women deal with it are discussed by Serah Kiragu. With regard to global climate change, Kiragu assesses changes in women's livelihoods in semi arid Kenya. She describes the women's recent difficulties and how they are coping with a changing environmental situation. This approach vividly illustrates that a notion of women as passive victims does not hold. Young rural women in Northern Ghana change their social sphere altogether – at least temporarily. In his anthropological article, Christian Ungruhe describes how a whole generation of young girls move out from their rural homes to urban centers. They become actively involved in labor migration and therewith experience economic independence in an attempt to generate their dowry, acquire modern assets, and consummate relationships. Although the journey marks a temporary phase in the women's lives, it is an important experience which they can bring to their future rural lives and a permanent phenomenon in women's biographies in West Africa. In contrast, women in Lesotho participate in wage labor on a permanent basis. Lena Kroeker illustrates in a historic and ethnographic overview why Lesotho ranks 8th in the Global Gender Gap Index 2010 and how women's high level of participation did not change but merely separated gender and generations. Various civil society representatives met at the World Social Forum with the aim of creating a more equal and just world. Antje Daniel portraits the strategies and main features of Brazilian and Kenyan women's organizations and explains how characteristics of women's organizations in the national context determine transnational activism within the space of the World Social Forum. All contributions not only illustrate contemporary life worlds of women but depict processes of change within them from the perspectives of African Literature, Geography, Anthropology and Sociology. The articles in this first issue of BIGSASworks! from a broad spectrum of disciplines provide fresh and original perspectives on an evergreen debate as well as unique empirical material.

Fried Chicken Strips
|Kristen J. Gough
Scrap the bone-in fried chicken for this kid friendly recipe, prime for a summer picnic or family dinner. Read more about it in the MetroParent.com Crumbs blog!
|2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne powder (optional)
2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 grocery store paper bag
|1. Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips.
2. In a large mixing bowl, pour in the buttermilk; then, stir in the spices. Next, place the strips into the buttermilk, stir and let them sit overnight in the refrigerator (alternatively, let them soak at least one hour in the buttermilk).
3. Heat about two inches of oil in either a heavy-bottomed pan or a wok (preferred). Allow the oil to come to a high heat (if you put a pinch of flour in it, it should sizzle on contact).
4. Meanwhile, place the flour and cornstarch in the paper bag.
5. Drain the buttermilk from the chicken strips.
6. Working in batches, place 1/3 of the strips into the bag, close and shake vigorously. Then put the coated strips into the hot oil.
7. Fry for about three minutes per batch or until golden brown. Drain on a wire rack and sprinkle with salt.
8. Repeat with remaining batches. (Note: There will be extra flour in the bag when you're done.)
9. Serve hot with barbecue sauce or ketchup for dipping.

Nick Iannelli, wtop.com
ALEXANDRIA, Va. - The man walking around Northern Virginia groping women has apparently struck again.
That makes two dozen cases in about seven months.
"I don't know why he's so elusive," says Arona Pistiner, a shopper at the HomeGoods where the crime occured.
"I'm not quite sure why they can't seem to find him."
Fairfax County police say the man grabbed a 31-year-old woman from behind inside the store in Kingstowne Center Thursday.
He ran away, despite witnesses trying to chase him down.
"People are on the alert," shopper Patricia McCarthy says. "There are flyers. It's certainly on the news."
The man's description is becoming quite familiar to authorities.
He is reported to be Hispanic and about 30 years old
Typically, the suspect has committed his crimes while women were walking, jogging or waiting at bus stops.
This is the first time an incident has been reported indoors.
Police say it widens the investigation, and leaves more witnesses.
Officers continue soliciting help from the public as the man remains on the loose.

The Lavender Association's annual Christmas Fair will be held at Two Rivers Convention Center on Saturday, Dec. 1. This craft fair is known for offering the finest quality handcrafted lavender-related products and unique arts and crafts available. Each item is made in Colorado using first-rate materials.
Lavender buds, essential oils and hydrosols, lotions, soaps, floral bouquets, wreaths and many other items made using lavender will be on display and available for purchase. At my booth I'll be conducting short workshops on the growing of lavender, soil preparation for lavender, the distillation process, and how to turn cuttings into plants. I'll have my stainless distillation unit on display so look for a 4-foot shiny object. I'll also show you a very simple process you can use to turn lavender flowers and bouquets into essential oil and hydrosol on your stove top.
Hydrosols, also called distillates, are one of the products of the distillation process. Microdroplets of essential oil and water soluble volatiles combine with the condensate during the distillation process to create hydrosol. Hydrosols made by adding essential oil to distilled water are missing the more water soluble plant volatiles and the microdroplets some people expect in a high quality hydrosol. As the steam generated by the still drips from the condenser, the lighter essential oil floats to the top of the hydrosol and is drained off. To purify the essential oil and free it from any water remaining from the distillation process, the product is put in the freezer. Any water in the oil will freeze and the pure essential oil can be poured off. Some distillers use a copper still. Mine is all stainless steel. Lavender oil reacts with copper and aluminum and may need to be strained through cheese cloth or a coffee filter to remove any particulates generated during the distillation process. I'll explain all this at my booth on Saturday, Dec. 1, so look me up.
Essential oils have been used for centuries to help correct numerous human and animal maladies, but since the dawn of the drug industry many of their uses have been forgotten. Aroma therapists use essential oils and the hydrosols. Massage therapists work essential oils into tired aching muscles; I've used lavender essential oil on cuts to improve healing. I have even used the lavender essential oil I produced in October on my dog. Books on aromatherapy for pets are common.
Please note however, that lavender oil, while having a calming effect on dogs, will kill a cat. I applied lavender essential oil on a large wart growing on the head of my Pekingese to see what would happen. Within a week of applying a daily drop of lavender essential oil to the wart, it was gone.
Several days after the Lavender Associations Christmas Craft Fair is the 2012 Western Slope Tree Care Workshop. Scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 6, attendance at this all-day workshop will provide you a great deal of training on the care of trees in grassy areas, and also give you an opportunity to check out the hospitality suite in the new Lincoln Park Tower.
Insects, diseases and other pests affecting the root collar and roots of trees, the problems encountered when trees are growing in turf areas, and poor planting techniques and how they adversely affect trees are the main topics of the day. This program is designed to provide arborists the educational credits they need to maintain their certification.
Individuals interested in becoming certified as ISA arborists, utility specialists, or municipal specialists will be able to take the appropriate ISA test at the conclusion of the day of training. The complete program is available from Jessica Dennison at 970-254-3861 (email@example.com). The cost of the program is $30 and includes lunch. The deadline for registration is Nov. 30 so don't delay. I would recommend this program for anyone interested in trees, especially CSU Master Gardeners, arborists, groundskeepers and landscape personnel.
Dr. Curtis E. Swift is a retired horticulture agent with the CSU Extension. Reach him at email@example.com or check out his blog at http://SwiftsGardeningBlog.blogspot.com. He owns Swift Horticultural Consulting and High Altitude Lavender.

eBay Find of the Day: Bugatti Veyron for hire
by Dan Roth (RSS feed) on Sep 5th, 2007 at 12:33PM
There's no denying that the Bugatti Veyron is an awesome car. Experiencing acceleration more akin to a superbike than a 4,000 pound car is a religious experience. The price of a one is also likely to cause you to utter the name of a higher being. If you'd like to drive Bugatti's wheeled missile but can't swing the cost of ownership, and you happen to be in England, you can rent one instead. Of course, the 40 grand it costs for a single day in HVC Prestige's Veyron would also buy ypu an entire car that you won't have to park after just 50 miles (that works out to $800/mile, in case you were...

Colts-mania takes over Geneva during Friday lunch hour
Geneva's Trevor Ingram liked having the Colts information bus, giant Colt player air balloon and cheerleaders in his hometown on Friday afternoon. In fact, the young Colt fan liked it so well that he lined up 10 times to get cheerleaders' autographs.
In spite of the biting November wind, there was a warm spirit of happiness and enthusiasm as Colt fans from all over the area gathered by the Geneva fire station to check out the team exhibit, chat with other fans, and wear lots of blue. The atmosphere was set off by the aroma of hot dogs, chili, sloppy joes, ribs, and other goodies appropriate for the chilly late fall afternoon.
Blue was the theme of the day, said Carmen Blackfor...

Anyone ever work for either of these famous Wall Street Fiancial Service Firms?
No i am not working.._____________[url=http://www.dodekanissaweb.gr]hotels greece[/url][url=http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Men%27s-Scrubs/]medical uniform[/url]
I never tried to work there. Sorry.___________________[url=http://captainwaterionizer.com/alkaline-water-filters-system]alkaline water filters[/url]|[url=http://captainwaterionizer.com]alkaline water ionizer[/url]|[url=http://captainwaterionizer.com]alkaline water ionizers[/url]
I never worked there but Pandick Press was originally a family firm, started by my great aunt, Ann C. Pandick Oakley, in 1921-22. I had many relatives who worked in this family business through the 1970s, including my father who is still alive.
My grandfather worked for Pandick Press for many years. When his son, my father, returned from WWII, he got a job at Pandick. He worked there for forty years. My mother spoke of Mrs. Oakley who gave wonderful Christmas parties in New York City, remembered all the employee's and their family members' names. When I was born in 1948, Mrs. Oakley remembered my birth with a gift. My father worked at Pandick Press as a pressman and retired as a foreman. He was still there when Newcomb Press bought Pandick. He always worked on the,"Lobster Shift." While known as a financial press, they also printed the wrappers for Wonder Bread. I would take the color proofs for Wonder Bread to school for show and tell.
In my Wall St. days early 1960's-I recall Pandick Press located on Thames St. (btwn. Trinity Pl and Greenwich st.s). Presently the site of DOE's High School of Economis and Finance.
