The Northwest Indian Campaign grew out of the Dakota War of 1862, an event sometimes classified as part of the U.S. Civil War and sometimes as the beginning of the Indian Wars. The uprising began on August 18, 1862, when small groups of Dakota (Sioux) Indians raided white settlers living in southern Minnesota.
The Dakotas of southern Minnesota were frustrated by years of accumulated grievances against white settlers and government officials over issues relating to reservation lands and controversial administrative practices. In addition to existing distrust, the Dakotas felt further provoked when promised annuity goods and cash due from the U.S. government were delayed. Fearing starvation after a poor harvest, and knowing government warehouses were full of food, some frustrated and angry Mdewakanton and Wahpekute Dakotas attacked many farms, several settlements, Fort Ridgely along the Minnesota River in southwestern Minnesota, and Fort Abercrombie on the Red River of the North (see Fort Abercrombie State Historic Site). An estimated 450 to 800 settlers and soldiers were killed in these attacks; Dakota losses were estimated at about 21.
Although approximately 40,000 white settlers fled during the initial stages of the conflict, within a few days, locally raised militia began quelling the uprising. Due to the demands of the raging Civil War, few "regular" U.S. troops were available for frontier service. The available state militia troops were mostly young, poorly trained, and poorly armed. However, at Birch Coulee and again at Wood Lake, these soldiers under the command of Colonel Henry Hastings Sibley won significant victories, ending the fighting and raiding in Minnesota.
As the military arrested suspected perpetrators, many Dakotas, innocent and guilty alike, fearing retaliation, fled to other areas. It was reported that Little Crow, a principal Mdewakanton leader of the conflict, and Inkpaduta, a renegade Wahpekute, had retreated to the vicinity of Devils Lake in Dakota Territory. Others fled to other parts of Dakota Territory or to Canada. Eventually, nearly four hundred Indians were tried by a military tribunal for their alleged participation in the conflict; of these, 308 were sentenced to hang. President Abraham Lincoln commuted many of the death sentences, but thirty-eight of those convicted were hanged at Mankato, Minnesota, on December 26, 1862.
Still, many Minnesotans wanted further retribution, including removal of all the Dakotas from Minnesota and continued arrests of escaped perpetrators. Some believed that future hostilities could be prevented only if severe punishment continued, and that the prospect of a new outbreak was likely. Approximately eight hundred Dakotas had fled the Lower Sioux reservation, and there were another 4,000 Dakotas at the more northern reservation, many of whom had vacated their villages and moved further into eastern Dakota Territory. Also, it was feared that thousands of Yanktons and Yanktonai from the eastern plains of Dakota Territory might rise up in support of their Minnesota relatives. Therefore, General John Pope, recently appointed commander of the new Military Department of the Northwest, devised a plan to trap the enemy Sioux in Dakota Territory.

20. Ranks of Bronze: David Drake
A science fiction novel with a terrific premise: aliens abduct a Republican Roman legion (one of Crassus's, actually—historically supposedly lost at Carrhae in 53 BC), and force them to fight for them on planets where high technology is banned. Drake is a well-known writer of military SF, and I've enjoyed a few of his other novels. But this one never reaches its potential; the plot develops pretty much exactly like you would expect. It also shows signs of being written in some haste: many sentences are partly garbled or unclear, and clichés abound. Not recommended, which is a shame.

Thousands of jobs were up for grabs Wednesday and more than 3,000 folks tried to nab them.
Michelle Worthy and her fiancé Patrick were both looking for jobs at the Austin-Travis County job fair, hunting for a new opportunity.
"Anything, any entry-level position, whatever is available," Michelle said. "When you live paycheck to paycheck and you lose that only thing it's difficult, but you got to do what you got to do."
One option for Michelle is becoming a firefighter, the Austin Fire Department needs women. Capt. Pablo Ruiz with AFD said it's a position that doesn't have to be a life-long dream.
"Eighteen years ago, I open the newspaper, I see Austin Fire department and I'm like why not?" he said. "Here I am, best mistake of my life."
Job fair attendee Vincent Johnson is retried, but is looking to get back to work. He browsed the health care tables, where Seton Medical was promoting 500 openings.
"It's like, OK, you've put in the brick patio, I've got all my securities under control and invested, it's like what do I do now," Johnson said. "Something which will hopefully help other people."
Austin is faring better than most across the country, the city's jobless rate is 6.3 percent, compared to 8.5 percent nationally.

Originally issued as distinct items, the four volumes of Acoustic Solo Percussion by Christian Wolfarth have been re-released in a small cardboard box together with a booklet with notes by Michael Vorfeld, Nina F. Schneider, Tomas Korber and Franz Aeschbacher. The coloured vinyl and the restricted quantity (the edition is limited to 99 copies) might be enough for the compulsively collecting specimens to hurry up, however the actual reason behind the need of getting this thing fast is the quality of the works that is comprises. Not that there were any doubts, for Wolfarth has demonstrated over the years that mixing seperate mutations of percussive action into steady washes of soul-sympathetic humming is possible. Just not for everybody. The field of timbral research coincides to the place where single components of an instrumental set get energized to the point of working almost autonomously, producing – depending on circumstance – imposing drones, slow growths toward an immediate future of danger, scattered decompositions of one-time drum patterns and a blue-collar majesty scarred by the piercing acids of bowed metals and clangorous clashing. Our personal respone to each event is like the feedback to an initiation of sorts; we believe to have understood, then realize that additional greyer shades and emaciated structures are gradually being revealed. A jeopardized stability that's better perceived by measuring the effects of the various combinations in different corners and spots of a room. The frequencies command, therefore obey bringing forth useless questions…This is a must-own object under any angle: great music throughout, to be played loud in spite of a few plastic-derived disturbances."
Massimo Ricci (touching extremes, 2012)
The Box contains all of four 7″ vinyl singles from the
"acoustic solo percussion vol. 1-4″ series.
It comes with a booklet including texts written by
Franz Aeschbacher, Tomas Korber, Nina F. Schneider
and Michael Vorfeld, with fotos by Christian Wolfarth.

Loaded gun found in Buffalo airline passenger's bag
CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y. (AP) – A loaded handgun has been found in a passenger's carry-on bag at Buffalo Niagara International Airport.

The Transportation Security Administration says Monday that a security screener discovered the .380-caliber handgun, along with spare bullets, in the Las Vegas-bound man's bag on Sunday.
The man, from the Buffalo suburb of Elma, was detained temporarily for questioning and then cleared to fly.
The TSA didn't release the passenger's name or say why he was carrying the weapon.

Updated: February 21, 2013 9:28AM
NEW YORK — Wal-Mart Stores said Thursday that its fourth-quarter profit rose 8.6%. But higher gasoline prices, late tax refunds and the payroll tax increase have it wary about the coming year.
The company's stock rose in pre-market trading Thursday.
Wal-Mart, based in Bentonville, Ark., is considered an economic bellwether because the retailer accounts for nearly 10% of nonautomotive retail spending in the U.S.
Wal-Mart's latest results, which cover the three months ended Jan. 31, show that gasoline prices and the payroll tax increase of 2 percentage points are shrinking the little disposable income that Wal-Mart shoppers have.
Investors were bracing for a subdued report after a Bloomberg story last week leaked an e-mail from a top executive characterizing the first two weeks of February as "a total disaster."
Wal-Mart acknowledged in Thursday's report that February started "slower than planned" but noted that it was largely due to the delay in tax refund checks.
For the current quarter, Wal-Mart expects revenue at stores open at least a year at its U.S. namesake business to be flat with last year. That represents a slowdown from the 1% increase in the fourth quarter.
The results come a little more than a year after Wal-Mart's U.S. namesake business turned a corner by reemphasizing low prices and restocking stores with thousands of basic items that it had gotten rid of in an overzealous bid to reduce clutter.
During the third quarter of 2011, the division reversed nine straight quarters of declines in revenue at stores open at least a year, considered a key measure of a retailer's health. The U.S. namesake business has now recorded six consecutive quarters of gains since the division rebounded.
But the fourth-quarter gain is below the 1.5% increase analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting. Overall, revenue at stores open at least a year rose a modest 1.2%, including a 2.3% gain at Sam's Clubs. Analysts had expected a 1.8% increase.
That growth pace has slowed in recent quarters.
Wal-Mart says it earned $5.6 billion, or $1.67 per share, in the quarter ended Jan. 31. That's up from $5.16 billion, or $1.50 per share, a year earlier.
Net sales rose 3.9% to $127.1 billion.
Earnings topped estimates of $1.57 per share, but net sales fell short of the $127.8 billion estimate.
The company says it expects earnings per share to range from $1.11 per share to $1.16 per share for the first quarter. That's below analysts' expectations for a $1.18 per share estimate, according to FactSet.
For the year, Wal-Mart expects earnings per share between $5.20 and $5.40 per share. Analysts expect $5.38 per share, according to FactSet.

English Only & Voting
Congressman Steve King (R-Xenophobia) has greeted the winners of the November election with a lawsuit, saying they should not help voters who are deficient in English. Press coverage–like usual–amounts to "he said-she said" on the meaning of the law. So here's the law, followed by more comments:
1. The general assembly of the state of Iowa finds and declares the following:
a. The state of Iowa is comprised of individuals from different ethnic, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds. The state of Iowa encourages the assimilation of Iowans into Iowa's rich culture.
b. Throughout the history of Iowa and of the United States, the common thread binding individuals of differing backgrounds together has been the English language.
c. Among the powers reserved to each state is the power to establish the English language as the official language of the state, and otherwise to promote the English language within the state, subject to the prohibitions enumerated in the Constitution of the United States and in laws of the state.
2. In order to encourage every citizen of this state to become more proficient in the English language, thereby facilitating participation in the economic, political, and cultural activities of this state and of the United States, the English language is hereby declared to be the official language of the state of Iowa.
3. Except as otherwise provided for in subsections 4 and 5, the English language shall be the language of government in Iowa. All official documents, regulations, orders, transactions, proceedings, programs, meetings, publications, or actions taken or issued, which are conducted or regulated by, or on behalf of, or representing the state and all of its political subdivisions shall be in the English language.
For the purposes of this section, "official action" means any action taken by the government in Iowa or by an authorized officer or agent of the government in Iowa that does any of the following:
a. Binds the government.
b. Is required by law.
c. Is otherwise subject to scrutiny by either the press or the public.
4. This section shall not apply to:
a. The teaching of languages.
b. Requirements under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
c. Actions, documents, or policies necessary for trade, tourism, or commerce.
d. Actions or documents that protect the public health and safety.
e. Actions or documents that facilitate activities pertaining to compiling any census of populations.
f. Actions or documents that protect the rights of victims of crimes or criminal defendants.
g. Use of proper names, terms of art, or phrases from languages other than English.
h. Any language usage required by or necessary to secure the rights guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America or the Constitution of the State of Iowa.
i. Any oral or written communications, examinations, or publications produced or utilized by a driver's license station, provided public safety is not jeopardized.
5. Nothing in this section shall be construed to do any of the following:
a. Prohibit an individual member of the general assembly or officer of state government, while performing official business, from communicating through any medium with another person in a language other than English, if that member or officer deems it necessary or desirable to do so.
b. Limit the preservation or use of Native American languages, as defined in the federal Native American Languages Act of 1992.
c. Disparage any language other than English or discourage any person from learning or using a language other than English.
Notice these words in section 4h:
"4. This section shall not apply to: h. Any language usage required by or necessary to secure the rights guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America or the Constitution of the State of Iowa.
There's an even bigger loophole in section 5:
" 5. Nothing in this section shall be construed to do any of the following:
a. Prohibit an . . . officer of state government, while performing official business, from communicating . . . in a language other than English, if that member. . .deems it . . .desirable to do so.
To my cynical eye this law was mainly a way pander to King's base. It has little, if any, practical effect, given the execptions in sections 4 and 5.
King (R) raised this objection last fall and Attorney General Miller (D) backed Culver (D). We can be cynical about that, too: two Ds sticking together.
King also raised a similar point during Congressional debate on the Voting Rights Act last summer. He lost then as well.

FragranceX.com offers on-line shoppers almost everything that they could want - in this category. I found the perfume that I wanted @ a price [including shipping] that was far below the local price for the same product. Shipping was as promised - I had the product in the 2-5 day shipping window promised. With companies like this, I won't be shopping locally for these types of products anytime soon.

I bought this fragrance purely on the strength of the list of ingredients and the smooth contours of the velvet black bottle accented with silver .
Black cherry, black pepper, pink grapefruit, top rose, black lily, jasmine, violet,licorice wood, madagascan vanilla, moroccan cedar and indonesian patchouli conjured up a vision of a dark , midnight garden , the air heavy with the fragrance of exotic night flowering blooms.
However , I was half prepared to be disappointed when the bottle arrived , as the ingredients , appealing as they may seem on the written page , need to be finely blended and balanced to acheive the perfect top , middle and bottom notes which have the quality to linger without overpowering .
As the name of El Pozo was not known to me , I feared an overpowerful concoction of rather foul smelling, damply woody notes , and had almost decided to keep the bottle unsed , for display purposes only .
However , on arrival , I found that I had sorely misjudged Senor El Pozo .
The fragrance is deep , delicious and seductive , and quite unlike any other fragrance I have experienced .
And believe me , as a collector of beautiful perfume bottles I have tried literally hundreds of them .
The deceptively sweet notes of black lily are balanced by the slight undertones of the liquorice and cedar , and these are the lasting first impressions of this fragrance .
Eventually it settles more to the cherry , rose and violet , creating a surprisingly subtle veil of heady and seductive fragrance .
At first you may be forgiven for stepping back a little from this unusual concoction , but believe me , a little patience is well rewarded with a perfectly formed ,if distinctly alternative , scent .
This is now ranking high amongst my few exclusive favourites , alongside such perfection as Viktor and Rolfe's " Flowerbomb " , " Delices " by Cartier and the new Van Cleef and Arpels " Feerie " , no mean acheivement considering how famously difficult to please I am !
Thank you Jesus .

This is a different fume. A gourmand with a little touch of spicinness. I expected it more sweet but is not. The good thing is that not everybody wears this. It's a kind of spicy dark berry. I combine it with a really sweet parfume to get more silage.

Comments about J. Del Pozo In Black Perfume:
This smell can be adjusted to your liking. It smells sweet and mellow on clothing and takes a darker, more pungent twist when on your skin. The darker notes are brought on by warmth and transform. An intruiging smell which I've never known. This is a must have for vampy/gothic styles from Fall to Winter. It can warm anyone up without exposing the mystery. This is a reasonably priced, well-composed perfume...don't be alarmed at the first alcoholic notes as they mellow within a few seconds. Shake before use and remember not to overdo it during the day, this one shines by night. Cherry brandy, faint licorice, lightened by lillies and violets topped off with smoky vanilla cream.

to observe slyly; also, to perceive; to discover
a small shoot or branch of a tree or other plant, of no definite length or size
to beat with twigs
A twig is a small thin terminal branch of a woody plant. The buds on the twig are an important diagnostic characteristic, as are the abscission scars where the leaves have fallen away. The color, texture, and patterning of the twig bark are also important, in addition to the thickness and nature of any pith of the twig. There are two types of twig, vegetative twigs and fruiting spurs. Fruiting spurs are specialized twigs that generally branch off the sides of branches and leading twigs, and are stubby and slow-growing, with many annular ring markings from seasons past. The age and rate of growth of a twig can be determined by counting the winter terminal bud scale scars, or annular ring marking, down the length of the twig.

PHP Mail Not Working
I've got (2) ISPConfig 3 servers. Server A hosts most domains and all emails. Server B hosts 1 domain, but no email. Server A has a direct IP address, Server B is behind a NAT.
I would like to set it up so Server B can send mail (via SMTP) through Server A.
Right now, I'm getting the following on Server B when I try to send mail through Server A: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. Neither servers logs show anything (including running tail -f /var/log/syslog on both servers and watching what happens when I hit "send").
Can you send email from A to B?
Some isp block port 25 to prevent spam from infected computers or spamers.
Try to check your firewall/iptables configuration and try to connect manually to anothers mail servers(from B) with:
telnet mailservername 25
Thanks... it does appear port 25 is blocked. However, our ISP itself doesn't block any of our ports (I've had this conversation with them in the past).
Also, both servers are connected to the same router, with nothing in the hardware firewall. If the firewall isn't on the router, where else might I look?
FYI: using http://network-tools.com/ I get a connection (that's rejected because relaying isn't allowed)
What are the outputs of
netstat -tap
iptables -L
Still pulling my hair out!
Server A:
netstat -tap
Active Internet connections (servers and established)
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
Server B is behind a NAT on a Cisco router. All ports open, nothing blocked at the router level.
if you can't get it to work directly, an alternate approach would be to setup a open between those two servers. Then you can route the email though the vpn tunnel hence it uses a different port.
Or you can use alternate ports for smtp... I usually do also free 2500 and 2525 or you could try the submission port (587)
i assume that you are running this from your house, or work. i would check the outside ports to make sure they are open. i have heard that line before yes port 25 is open but the person that you are talking to knows nothing other then what is on the monitor in front of them.
to check your ports you can use this site
if port 25 is blocked you can use a relay service to send mail out on port 2525
this is how i have to do it sucks having to pay for a service but what are you going to do.
Thanks. Going to http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ shows port 25 open at Server A.
When I send an email from Server B, though, I'm getting this:
Mar 16 17:00:21 myserver postfix/smtpd[26622]: connect from unknown[192.168.1.220]
http://www.infoocean.info/avatar1.jpgCan you send email from A to B?
Ok... so this is what I've got.
A & B won't talk to each other, but I can send from out side (for instance Gmail) to A and B.
Here's the setup:
Cisco Router has a static IP of XXX.XXX.XXX.123
Server A is behind the Cisco router with a static IP XXX.XXX.XXX.122
Server B is behind the Cisco Router with a static IP 192.168.1.252, but NATed to XXX.XXX.XXX.124.
Web services work great on A & B. Email is just fine on A. Email is fine on B. Except B won't talk to A and vice versa.
I can't send mail to A or B. If I try to send from B to A, on server B I get:
Mar 19 17:31:39 serverB postfix/smtp[23088]: 340211C01594: to=<firstname.lastname@example.com>, relay=127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1]:10024, delay=0.69, delays=0.14/0/0.01/0.54, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 from MTA([127.0.0.1]:10025): 250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as B80CE1C0159E)
When I send from A to B, on server A I get:
Mar 19 15:24:41 serverA postfix/smtpd[3997]: warning: XXX.XXX.XXX.123: hostname XXX-XXX-XXX-123.myisp.net verification failed: Name or service not known
Mar 19 17:40:35 serverB postfix/smtp[24568]: B80CE1C0159E: to=<email@example.com>, relay=none, delay=535, delays=505/0.08/30/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to serverA.com[XXX.XXX.XXX.122]:25: Connection timed out)
There is something with how things are configured that keeps A and B from talking to each other on Port 25 (or 587)... but both can talk to the rest of the world.

When I was a teenager I attended an Assemblies of God church. One weekday evening I went to the first of what was hoped to be a series of relaxed gatherings for teenagers in one of the church member's homes. It was one of many failed attempts to "communicate with kids on their level." We sat around talking, playing games, and singing Christian folksongs (an oxymoron, I know, but that's how they were presented). At the end of the evening, the one person there who wasn't a teenager, a man in his mid-twenties, gave a little talk. We had been told that it wouldn't be a sermon, that it would be more open, more frank, than what we were likely to hear at church on a Sunday.
We all expected that it would be about sex, or drugs, or some other subject specific to teenage life (as the older church members thought we experienced it). As it turned out, the subject was totally unexpected—a blow by blow account of the crucifixion, in graphic, almost clinical detail. The speaker gave us minute information on the various wounds and beatings Christ received, the stabbing, the driving in of the nails, the hanging from the cross, and what affect this all had on his body.
The idea was to drive home to us the suffering Christ had gone through in order to redeem us of our sins. That a man should have chosen to go through such intolerable agony in order to rescue humble sinners such as ourselves is, if you are a believer, a powerful testament of God's love and can be a strong reinforcement of your own faith. I was both shocked and moved. All of us were.
This, I imagine, is what Mel Gibson is trying to achieve in The Passion of the Christ. (I haven't seen it yet, but you can read detailed reports of it here, here, and here). If you're not a believer, however—and I no longer am—it's doubtful that this way of telling the story is going to have much affect on you, aside from possibly turning your stomach. I can't imagine anyone being converted by such a spectacle.
I doubt if it will work on most believers either (Andrew Sullivan, a devout Catholic, considers the movie pornographic and immoral). My friends and I walked out of that meeting moved, but also questioning the motives and the reasoning of such a presentation. There never was another meeting of the group, and I never saw the speaker again, either in church or anywhere else. In a way, being presented with the facts (and we believed they were the facts) in this way, only resulted in diminishing, for us, the divine qualities of Jesus. It made him too human, just another guy being tortured to death. And growing up in the late 20th century, we were all too familiar with that.
But then, maybe that's part of Gibson's goal, as well. Maybe what he really wants to do is separate the wheat from the chaff. If you can't handle his particular brand of manly but masochistic Christianity, then maybe you should just step out of the tent now into this convenient fiery pit we have ready for you. If you can't handle the truth about your savior's suffering, you probably don't deserve to be saved anyway, you sniveling little worm. Let's face it, you're just not tough enough to accept God's love. You deserve to go to hell, just like Mel's wife.

Have you ever had a local anesthetic for dental surgery?
Your gums, facial muscles, facial affect, smiling, talking, eating – it all just goes funny and you simply can't use your mouth area until the anesthesia wears off. You feel kind of silly and imbecile-like, yes?
Now imagine this.
You are on your stomach, lying on the ground. You want to lift your head up. But someone just injected your back extensor muscles (the ones that allow you to lift up off the ground and lift your head) with that same local anesthetic that dentists use. The very muscles that work to lift up your head and chest are simply deadened. It's even hard to engage your shoulders and arms to lift yourself up because, unfortunately, they too interact with your back extensors. You might say: "Darn it, this head feels so heavy. It's a struggle. I feel completely helpless!"
This last scenario is exactly what happens when infants are put on their stomachs for "tummy time." The only difference is that the infant can't speak yet to say: "Hey, what's going on, this sucks. I'm uncomfortable. HELP!"
Putting infants on their tummies without having them go through the process of getting to their tummy on their own is analogous to injecting their back extensor muscles with that local anesthetic. They are paralyzed and basically unable to access their back extensor muscles, mainly because the actual act of getting to their tummy from their back (something that takes months!) is what forms their spinal curves – the lumbar, thoracic and cervical – and in turn gives them strength in their back muscles.
Have you had a chance to watch "Baby Liv"?
Before you read on, give yourself the 3-minute pleasure of watching Baby Liv. Watch the video piece straight through. See the process of Baby Liv going from her back, to side, to tummy (and all the in-between's).
Then, I'd like to give you a recap of what she's doing from a functional and structural point of view. In essence: What is giving her the juice to get to her tummy and decide when she is ready for her own "Tummy Time".
This footage was taken over a series of months.
@ 20 seconds: She's pretty still, but if you look at the eye movement, to the right and left, that is priming her spine for rotating. For now, she's doing tiny pieces of rotation. (Try this yourself, only move your eyes left and right. If you are attentive enough, you'll sense you neck and head wanting to move in the direction your eyes travel.)
She then looks at her fingertips. This gaze upwards is forming the curves in the upper part of her spine (the cervical area) – and in actuality, it is transmitting throughout her entire body. The support she finds from the ground under her – from foot to head – provides "juice" for this movement (and all movements, really).
@ 41 seconds: You can just see the increase in fluidity throughout her entire self and a greater availability for movement.
@ 1 min: She's moving her legs a lot, and this is putting a nice wave up her spine…think…snake like movement!
@1.15: She starts to do a roll. This seemingly innocent movement carries a lot of punch in the development world. That little push through her foot and the tiny rotation it brings is just the beginning of finding a teensy bit of spinal extension and use of her back muscles. Lifting both of her legs up tilts her pelvis and flattens her lower back into the ground. This flattening of her lower back is forming the opposite of her lumbar curve. It is lengthening her back muscles. This lengthening gives her 'energy' in her back muscles so that she has more ability to actually engage them.
@2.09: If you can catch it – it's quick – when she is going for giraffe Sophie, you see her little head pick up off the ground. BINGO! This little lift is happening because the rest of her body, below, has found the support surfaces and functionally to un-weight her head. All the pieces are falling into place.
@ 2.18: She's a pretty happy kid. She's got there HERSELF (think: self-reliance), and her head held high with absolute support coming from her pelvis, hands and legs. She's anchoring into the ground in numerous places and learning how to use her environment for movement. You see, in this moment of her lifting her body up, there is no impingement on her neck area, and clean spinal curves are being developed.
It isn't about the firing and strengthening of "muscles" per se, it's about functionally doing the movements that our nervous system wants to find, and then letting the muscles, and nature, just do their job.
@2.44-2.46: Now she is really showing off her ability to finely control her rotation and movement. She's got it dialed. It feels good. She's having fun!

I LOVE your comments and questions. Please add them here...
I never saw the point of "tummy time" on the floor for my babies in the early months. They seemed to get plenty enough of it when lying chest to chest on their dad or I. Later, when they could roll by themselves, they got it of their own volition. The whole idea of "tummy time" seems very contrived to me. What's the need if you spend plenty of time holding and lying with your baby?
I agree our daughter uses her muscles a lot when she is on our chest. She has been rolling onto her side now on the floor so its a matter of time before she can roll all the way over. She is held a lot but is very very strong and holds her head up very well. I think babies' bodies know when they need to reach their milestones.
The Case against Tummy Time seems not very well researched. Tummy time does include lying on Mum or Dad's chest, across lap, winding etc. The claim that "Most" babies do not like it seems unfounded. Left for long periods yes of course babies will get uncomfortable. Its only supposed to be for as long as the baby can tolerate. An increase in motor delays due the lack of "tummy time," is the number one contributor to the escalation in cases.http://pathways.org/awareness/parents/tummy-time/tummy-time-research#.UgWzdtI3CcQ.
I completely agree Julia. This is entirely untrue : Putting infants on their tummies without having them go through the process of getting to their tummy on their own is analogous to injecting their back extensor muscles with that local anesthetic. As a Pediatric Occupational Therapist for 20 years, I hope resonable intellegrent mothers look at this as only another point of view. This can work for babies as strong and capable as the one above but there is another way – the way we teach everything to our children. We guide them to the precess they are to learn. We need to participate in it with them. Tummy time begins day 1 of life: baby lays on the mother or fathers chest. We guide and teach from that position until the neck control – used for breast or bottle feeding – will be used for prone tummy time on the floor.
Just wondering what your thoughts are of propped up tummy time ? I was encouraged to prop my baby up with her arms over the top of a small towel roll. From memory I think she had just started making the effort to roll but wasn't actually doing it at that point.
Thank you! I always felt a little weird about it but EVERYONE was saying how important tummy time was. Good thing I was kind of a slacker about it.
I'm expecting my first baby in a few months and I totally agree with the RIE philosophy on just about everything, including tummy time. However, I just googled "positional plagiocephaly" and found a bunch of mainstream articles that basically said my baby will have a flat head if allowed to be on his/her back for extended periods of time. What is your experience with this? Do you know any RIE babies who got positional plagiocephaly? Is this just fear and hype? Maybe I shouldn't have looked it up b/c it sounds scary!
As far as I am aware from my own readying and research no babies at the PIKLER institute(Have a google) ever got a flat head and were never ever placed into any position they couldn't get into/out of themselves.
Babies on there backs naturally move their head from side to side when listening and looking at things, this is only prevented if they are frequently 'contained' in bouncers, carseats etc.
I understand it in theory but it doesn't quite explain the fact that my first son preferred being on his tummy from birth. It was years before the Back to Sleep campaign so I let him sleep on his tummy all the time.
I agree that SOME babies probably feel very uncomfortable but to say that ALL babies feel this way is just ignorant.
"the actual act of getting to their tummy from their back (something that takes months!) is what forms their spinal curves – the lumbar, thoracic and cervical – and in turn gives them strength in their back muscles."
Ok no, that's not how the curves are formed. First of all, when you are born your back is concave (aka, you already have your thoracic, and sacral curves.) when the baby first starts lifting its head, that's when the cervical curve forms and when the baby starts standing upright is when the lumbar curve forms.
While I can understand not wanting to make your baby uncomfortable, they are not paralyzed. The whole purpose is to strength the muscles and get neural coordination to start movement control. Hence, by making them try to use their muscles, they should be able to control their movements faster. And it would not be necessary to leave the baby on their stomach for long periods of time to do this.
so I'm sorry, I don't really understand what you are trying to get at here because so far most of what you say just sounds ridiculous to me. Most scientists don't tell you to do it to prevent a flat head, they say it to help develop muscle and coordination.
Will a child's motor skills be fine if they don't do tummy time? For sure. But don't go saying that its a bad thing to try and help the development of it. I feel like a bigger concern should be when to submerge your baby underwater when swimming. In that situation, I feel a baby truly is helpless. But a couple minutes on it's stomach won't hurt it.
"Hence, by making them try to use their muscles, they should be able to control their movements faster."
I think you found the RIE point right here: Though I'm not at all an RIE expert, I think that "making" babies do things rather than trusting them to move at the right for them pace is what's being questioned. Babies will learn to lift their heads without anyone coaxing it out of them; why rush and deny them the freedom to explore movement at their own pace? It seems to me that childhood is a process and we're trying to skip it for immediate "results". People spend fortunes learning how to "be in the moment" yet we encourage babies to hurry up the process of becoming. We are born with a thirst for knowledge, we needn't be "made" to learn (and frequently the making kills the process of learning).
Early development of muscle tone via turning and rolling from supine is crucial in proper spinal alignment. Laying on the stomach (and thus tummy time) could lead to developing lower back and hip muscles that are too tight causing hyperlordosis, or an extreme curvature of the lumbar region of the spine.
Thank you for your critical review of this article. It completely ignores the processes of reflex development, ocular motor development, respiratory development and anti gravity control that is dependent on prone activity in infancy. Nor does it refer to the increase in digestive problems that have occurred since 'back to sleep' scared parents from putting infants on their stomachs even for awake and alert play. Equating prone positioning to paralysis is incredibly ridiculous. Babies have been placed on their tummies for eons and allowed to develop anti-gravity motor skills naturally. Normal development scales are based on that practice.
Now, due to the small percentage of infants succumbing to SIDS (for reasons not proven to be the result of sleep position), parents are discouraged from putting babies on their bellies by doctors and the kinds of arguments made in this article. And babies are taking longer to establish core motor control, having more digestive problems, having to use compensatory motor patterns to accomplish what used to be a steady progression of developmental skills, both gross and fine. We're seeing a generation of children with poor postural alignment, less then optimal respiratory control, working harder to achieve fine motor skills and with more attention difficulty. And, yes, in many cases these can all be traced back to lack of antigravity motor development associated with prone activity.
As for "forcing" babies to use their muscles – there is a real lack of understanding the process of motor development, here. Babies muscles are "activated" by nervous system mechanisms that are integrated with gravity (primitive motor reflexes). Therefore, all positions in gravity are needed to achieve adequate interaction and motor skills.
I mostly agree… except that plagiocephaly is the real deal in preemies, who tend to roll on their own anyway. With our preemie daughter, we did do enforced tummy time (sometimes right on us or on a roll) under the guidance of a PT because she was getting a flat spot and her back muscles had actually started to tighten (as can happen with preemies). So in cases where there's a medical necessity, enforced tummy time has its place.
I agree with Christa here. My daughter was also a preemie and tummy time was incredibly important to her development. She was on her back most of her 6 month NICU stay. While she would turn her head back and forth and was repositioned often by nurses, she still had severe plagiocephaly.
With my preemie we did what I guess is "technically" tummy time but it wasn't planned out. It was instinctual. When she looked uncomfortable on her back, I would pick her up and lay down with her on her stomach on my chest or on my stomach. When she seemed tired of this position, I would lay her on her back on the blanket on the floor and go cook or clean. Also when she was still in the isolette, we had her on her tummy with her legs tucked under and arms bent at the elbow beside her(picture a frog) because she could not yet lift her arms or roll her hips (she still had the muscle tone of the fetus she developmentally was.)
Hi Janet
Thank you so much for sharing this. I am an ECE teacher and I often had parents telling me about tummy time and my staff thought it was a good idea too! I am totally against babies having tummy time and also being placed in positions that they are not ready for. My now near 4 year was brought up on the philosophy of Magda Gerber and Emmi Pikler. She never had tummy time and was aloud to develop in her own natural time. I believe this had led her to become a confident child and in complete control of her body. I am a huge advocate for free movement and am trying one person at a time to change the way people think about child development. Thank you again for your posts, they are inspiring and educational
This is so silly, babies that are put to sleep on their tummy like to be on their tummy and babies put to sleep on their back like to be on their back. Not particularly surprising since they spend so much time sleeping when they are newborn. I'm also not sure where you are coming up with the idea that babies can't lift their heads or their muscles aren't capable of working. Healthy newborns are capable of turning their head, even when they are brand new. Give the babies a little credit! Try putting a brand new baby on their tummy, they move their heads, push with their legs and feet and change the position of their hands. Sure, the muscles are weak at first and they may not be able to keep their head up for very long, but they get strong pretty quickly. This is totally a cultural phenomenon and totally a product of the back to sleep campaign. I'm all for keeping babies safe from SIDS, but putting babies on their back is no more natural or right then putting babies on their tummy. Soon enough the baby will be able to roll over and show you their preferred position, which will probably change over time anyway.
My second baby was always put to sleep on his back & as soon as he learned to roll over at 4 months insisted on sleeping on his stomach. When I was a baby in the 70s my mother tried to get me to sleep on my stomach as was recommended then and I did not like that from the start. I think babies do have a preference that goes beyond just the position that has been chosen for them. Interesting thoughts on tummy time. My first hated tummy time and I didn't do it very much with him because it was so upsetting for him. Glad I listened to him.
I understand the idea of listening to babies, but we're not listening to babies by forcing them to sleep on their backs (until they are able to roll on their own). Plagiocephaly and certain physical delays increased pretty much the same time that the "Back to sleep" campaign took off. Without Tummy Time, many more babies would be significantly delayed.
In other words, I don't think you can use the "natural" argument of listening to babies cues when you are creating an unnatural situation that is causing problems.
For those who are interested in Tummy Time but don't want to cause great discomfort to their baby, my baby's physical therapist taught me the following:
She specifically said NOT to do tummy time by just plopping my baby on his stomach. Firstly, since they can't lift themselves up much, they're not getting much of a work out. Secondly, when they cry and get upset on their stomachs, they tense up and work the wrong muscles. She showed me how to prop him on his elbows and support his upper arms and shoulders while distracting him with toys. (I understand the idea of respecting children by not trying to distracting them, but I think we all appreciate distraction when we are a little uncomfortable or doing something we don't enjoy). She also emphasized the importance of doing this multiples times a day for short periods of time and stopping when he gets upset, as opposed to doing one longer tummy time session in which he would get distressed. In this way, the baby's sense of comfort is respected and the physical gains are greater.
As an aside Janet, I recently discovered your website and I'm enjoying very much. My baby is already almost a year, but I'm glad I can put some of the RIE principles into practice for his upcoming delicious toddler year!
Wow this is great. Both my son and daughter hate tummy time and I've been told to force them into it despite their distress, and of course my own. Good news!
I have been following this blog on and off for a while now, and although I typically agree with most of the articles, I disagree on this one. As an occupational therapist, I continue to highly encourage tummy time. Developmentally, a child should be able to hold his head up in prone (on his tummy) before being able to roll over, so the premise that they are not ready for tummy time if they aren't able to roll over is incorrect. The comparison of tummy time to being injected with a local anaesthetic is also a little over the top.
I agree that we need to listen to the child's cues, and not force them into tummy time if they are uncomfortable. But there are many ways to do tummy time while continuing to respect the child's cues, such as on mom or dad's chest, supported with a roll or towel, and only as tolerated, as I have seen previously mentioned in some of the comments.
Although most kids will be able to develop typically without specific "tummy time" being implemented, there are many kids with developmental delays that continue to benefit from it.
I think of tummy time as parents leaving their children alone, or out of touch, on the floor for a length of time that usually lasts 20 minutes, 1-2 times a day. I realize that tummy time counts if your child is laying on your tummy playing with you, etc, but most people I know do not practice it this way or sadly even hold their babies that much. I know that sounds ilke an extreme statement but I'm just speaking of the people I know personally- babies are almost always in car seats, swings, bouncy seats, etc out of physical contact with their parents- even during bottle feeding.
Anyway, the point I'm getting at is that it seems to me tummy time is a "medicine" to cover up some "symptom". Not something that is good, natural, and needed in an of itself. For example- people need to do it because their babies are laying on their backs too much and develop a flat spot. The problem isn't that the baby hasn't gotten enough TT, the problem is some type of care going on is unnatural and causing the flat spot. Are these babies breastfed and cosleeping? Where babies will naturally switch sides often during the night and lay on their sides? Or are these babies put in a crib, on their back, for long periods of time that isn't natural for most babies? Are people not holding and interacting with their babies enough, which causes their babies head to be flat?
It seems when children are cared for in a natural way, the need for TT goes out the window. TT fixes the symptoms of a larger problem altogether.
This isn't to say that sometimes there are extenuating circumstances (like premies) that don't make TT neccessary- there are. But premature birth isn't the "norm" so again TT isn't something that children are born innately to need.
Andrea I agree with you 100%. I practiced attachment parenting with all my three children my eldest is now 21. I was inspired by the phiolosophy of La Leche league and they were all breastfed. My babies spent a lot of time upright in a baby sling or lying down in the sling. They also breast fed in the sling when I was out and about doing grocery shopping etc. They also co-slept with me. Tummy time really wasn't an issue and they just rolled onto their tummies in their own time, then proceeded to crawling around 6 months sitting around 9 months and walking around eleven months.
Being a grandmother, and having raised my infants in the "dark ages" when ALL babies were to be put on their TUMMIES to sleep, I can tell you, I observed all of my infants in their bassinet. Each one was able to lift and set her head down, first on one cheek, then the other. This helped develop the crossed- extensor reflex, with baby turning the head toward a bent arm, and the opposite leg extending, and vice-versa when the head was turned the opposite direction. Thus, they were developing crawling muscles in a normal pattern, and they were able to roll over by 6-7 weeks, and to creep forward. Other than the hazard of SIDS, which at that time was not believed to be related to babies sleeping on their bellies, I saw no harm or problem with my babies or their development from belly position time, from the moment they came home from the hospital. All babies struggle to command their muscles and body parts as they grow. The head is, well, large, in proportion to the rest of the body, and yes, heavy. My babies could lift their heads from side to side right from the start. We let babies back then have a few minutes of "back" time daily, such as during diaper changes, until they got old enough to roll over on their own. Ironic, how the world turns…
You know where babies belong the majority of the time? In their parents arms or being worn. I never needed to do tummy time, my kids gained head control and strength while on my chest or in the sling.
Actually babies do need to not be in your arms ALL the time. They do need to learn to turnover, lift their heads and such. If you are holding them ALL THE TIME, they won't learn how to do this.But yes, they do need to be held. Holding them too much will also create other problems when they get older.
This confuses me. As a species, humans are nomads. We may be ignoring our migratory biologic features but it's what we were made to do. We travel better than many creatures in the world with a slow and steady but readily adaptable pace. We were made to be moving all the time and by design our infants were made to be held against us while we do that. The reason that our infants have a concave spinal column at birth is because adults have convex. Why do contact lenses have to be put into the human eye in a convex shape? Because the human eye is concave. These two shapes are universally acknowledged as being made to fit together. Infants are designed to be against the parents chest until their spine development allows for them to walk on their own. Why would ignore biological design because some doctor said if you don't leave your baby on the floor, he can't develop? Or because some 60 year old woman told you "Holding him spoils him and he'll be a little brat when he's older."
In the end we all do what we think is best for our babies. I found that most of the RIE principles fell right in line with how I already thought/felt about caring for and nurturing my babies.
I never believed in forced tummy time and hated that our pediatrician was pushing it. To me, 2 minutes or 5 minutes of tummy time on the floor several times a day was not going to counteract the amount of time spent in a car seat or other contraption. It just wasn't logical. (I will admit that as a working mother of 6 month old twins I do rely on my swing and bouncer a little more that I would like)
It is important to let babies do things in the own time in their own way. I am amazed watching my boys during their floor time. Their development is as different as it is the same. My older twin was the first to roll over (weeks ahead of his brother) and he rolled one direction back to tummy to back to tummy. When the younger twin was ready he was able to roll both directions but hasn't figured out how to go from tummy to back with any consistency. One is more vocal, the other has better hand to mouth coordination. We have never done tummy time and guess what – they still can roll and lift their heads up and push their bodies up with their arms. They are like little yogis! One was ahead of and one slightly behind "schedule". We made the decision that was right for our family and our boys are thriving.
This feels like rebelling against the norm just for the sake of it.
My baby enjoyed many different positions – tummy, back, propped, cuddled, but mostly on her back on the living room floor.
She hated the car seat and the sling until about 3 months.
She rolled by herself at 4 months for about a week and enjoyed some tummy time, but used to get frustrated that she couldn't roll back onto her back, and she has never rolled since! (she is now almost 6 months)
She has a flat head because she was born like that.
How is it that it comes across that its not OK to 'contain' a baby in a carrier etc yet its OK to 'wear' a baby in a sling?
My baby truly hated any kind of confinement such as the sling or pram for the first 3 months, so we were housebound, which was very difficult at times.
She is better now that she is older.
In conclusion I don't think you can generalise, you just need to listen to your baby and offer them lots of options and see what they like. If I had a £ for every time someone told me to put my baby in the car because she would nap!
Personally I think tummy time is important for strengthening baby's wrists and arms, and makes up part of their early experiences. Variety is the spice of life!
Hey everyone,
This is an interesting read as are the comments. I didn't do tummy time with my eldest and we haven't done it so far with our 10 week old but she is starting to get a flat head and I'm freaking out a bit. I think she initially developed the flat bit on one side when sleeping in our room and getting fixated on a throw on our bed and being in the same position. Once I realised that's what it was I changed the position of her moses basket so she'd face the other way to even things out. While the one-sided flatness is not so noticeable now she is still looking a bit flat across the back.
I breastfeed so she changes position then but she does spend a lot of time on her back – she is an awesome sleeper and does not need to be held heaps to get to sleep. I have been alternating how she sleeps – lying one side, on the back and then the other side but this requires propping her in bed and I'm not completely comfortable with that either as I don't think it would be that comfy for her.
Essentially, I don't want to do tummy time but I don't know what to about her flat head. Maybe she'll start to move her head around more soon as she becomes more interested in whats going on around her and it'll fix itself. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
This article is dramatic and absurd. The kind of over the top opinion based poopery that is about as informative as Us Weekly. A local anesthetic? Oh okay, exempt baby has fully functional muskets back there. May as we'll let them potty train themselves, why encourage them to anything they don't feel inclined to do at all?
This is completely moronic. Lack of tummy time is clearly associated with developmental and even cognitive delays when the sample number is expanded a bit. The analogy that the child is using muscles that are effectively anesthetised or blocked is total bunk. The way muscle tone is built and the neural pathways that activate them are honed is by use. Irene Lyon offers no research to back up her claims. She offers no credentials that would justify her as an expert in infant development. Instead, her argument appeals to a certain aesthetic, and her recommendations are harmful.
Most articles like this appeal to our sense of aesthetics. Allowing something to "occur naturally" seems so preferable. But go to a pediatrician's office and ask them about infants with lack of tummy time and they will tell you about motor delays that are tied to cognitive delays. Even in babies who are worn in a sling and who cosleep in full-on attachment parenting style.
For all the parents who state "We didn't do tummy time and our baby X was fine," your n = 1 does not constitute a data set. Instead, it encourages other hippy dippy parents to avoid tummy time and contributes to motor delay. Good on ya.
As a pediatric physical therapy specialist, this article caught my eye and made me outraged. I spend every day educating kids who are delayed in their gross motor skills and give strategies to parents on how to make tummy time better. As I know most consumers don't do as extensive of research as we do, most of my parents will look at this title and stop reading. This may apply to the typical baby, but even then I see so much torticollis and plegiocephaly for the supine babies who hate prone. I have many kids who hated prone and who learned to avoid it by rolling off their back and scooting and now have difficulty with skills later on. I've had A LOT of success weening kids into prone positions that have later gone on to be late rollers. SO please, for the sake of the medical community, be careful what you are putting out there to the internet. It can be doing more harm than good.
Babies are almost flaccid beings, everything they do and learn takes immense strength, patience, fervor and genetics!! Babies sometimes express more comfort on the their backs and sometimes more on their bellies, either way, what a workout!! Whichever way we put them (back or belly), they are constantly challenged to move and groove (or they sleep or are busy doing a "skill" they've already mastered). I think the goal everyone is talking about is to try to tap into what might be the most natural with hands off support and I think it can depend on the age and temperament of each infant. I also think some hands on interventions ie. the towel propping for support is like using a block during yoga or a exercise ball for situps, sometimes some physical therapy can be proactive without impeding on natural form and organic learning. I think going back to the root of observing one's own child, knowing when they are growing v. when they are suffering is of utmost importance here.
This advice does not apply to all babies. Some babies have developmental delays and without tummy time they have an incredibly difficult time learning to move. In my practice, we see babies who have spent a year in a RIE class on their backs. It's incredibly stressful to a mother when their baby is the only one not learning how to do the skill naturally. What happens is the moms do not return to the RIE class because the baby cannot move at a year. They go to their one year well baby visit and the Pediatrician refers them to Physical Therapy.
I would love to share with you their names but it would be a HIPPA violation.
Does anyone know if there is research about tummy time being harmful in any cases? I lost my 10 week old about 6 weeks ago. The medical examiner ruled her death as SIDS. But my baby was awake and doing tummy time at daycare. I just can't understand it… but the examiner said that anytime I put a baby at that age on its belly you're risking SIDS. If this is the case, how is tummy time so widely promoted as something to prevent SIDS?! I'm so confused but if I can lose my baby to something that involved tummy time I feel that other moms should know.
Hi! I've read this article before and all your others like this. Tonight I finally have compiled my reply. While what you write can sound convincing, it lacks complexity.
I am a dance educator. I have been for many years. Currently, I teach over 250 children a week to dance, including my own 4 young ones. In college I studied Bartinieff movement fundamentals and know it is absolutely the way to develop at strong core-centered individual. I have spent and continue to spend my life in the world of movement.
Overall, I feel there is a much deeper way to talk about movement development than simply 'no tummy time' and 'don't help your child walk'. I adored what christine cole said above. She is spot on.
Babies need lots and lots of time on the floor to develop their muscles on their own for sure. But we are social creatures so participating with them in their physical challenges is awesome for them as well.,
The PT's who weighed in here are right, there are many gross motor delays now a days. Of course they need to get out of the bumbo and other devices and onto the floor but what they really need is caretakers who are aware of their various needs and who aren't afraid to give them a variety of movement experiences. Similar to what Christine said, stranding your baby on her back can be just as debilitating as stranding her on her front.
So then the conversation stops being what positions are allowed and what are not but turns into truly watching your baby enjoy getting strong in a variety or healthy natural ways, some of which you are involved in as a parent because we are social creatures and some of them you are not. It is awesome to support them and have confidence in them, whatever their movement choices may be, but still there must always be an eye on them that encourages their overall strength and development. It really is way more complex than simply 'no tummy time' or 'don't walk babies'.
Here is a case story in addition to Baby Liv: My own daughter, who is 7, got loads of tummy time, loads of floor time, loads of playtime in the air with Dad and I in ways and places that she did not put herself in and loads of playground time, lots by herself, lots with me placing her on high things and discovering with her about how to get down (a slide, for example), and lots and lots of movement experiences to develop herself into a strong, fearless and coordinated person. She recently started gymnastics and is immediately excellent. She loves it and asks to go every day. They asked her to join a competitive team in just a few months as she is so strong and fearless. I am convinced it is because of the physicality she has been able to develop on her own and with me always having an eye on her developing her overall strength and coordination.
My baby likes her tummy time.
She let's me know that she hates it on her back by screaming and arching her back until she either gets picked up, or put into her side or tummy.
I also don't see anything natural about putting a baby on its back compared to putting it on its side or belly.

NEW YORK, September 28, 2012 — Runners, are you ready? It's the moment we've all been waiting for — a television quality broadcast about our favorite sport. We wait all year long for major marathons like Boston and New York to give us just a few hours of running coverage. Now the wait is over.
New York Road Runners launched Wednesday the debut of "On The Run," a weekly lifestyle web show dedicated to exploring the life of the runner. It's hosted by yours truly.
Every week between now and the ING New York City Marathon on November 4, "On The Run" will give viewers insider access to professional athletes like Meb Keflezighi, Shalane Flanagan and Kara Goucher, plus news about community running programs around the country and perspectives on the state of the sport from some of the biggest names in the running media. Every webisode will also feature inspirational local heroes, coaching and training tips, or other stories sure to inspire your own running.
Brought to you by New York Road Runners, the not-for-profit organization responsible for the ING New York City Marathon, "On The Run" aims to fill the void in running broadcast coverage on a national level. No more waiting for the New York City marathon in the fall and the Boston Marathon in the spring to get those precious few hours of running TV. New webisodes of "On The Run" will air Wednesdays at 8 p.m., and all segments and past episodes will be available to view on-demand.
For the first episode, "On The Run" spent the day at the Fifth Avenue Mile on Saturday, September 26 where Olympians Bernard Lagat, Matthew Centrowitz and Leo Manzano battled on the streets of New York City alongside 5,000 other runners of all ages and abilities. But the show also takes viewers outside of New York City to Minnesota for a profile of Gabriele Anderson, a U.S. miler who has already beat cancer twice by the age of 26.
Then we visit Pine Ridge, South Dakota for a look at the One Spirit Runners from the Lakota Native American tribe, who are preparing to run the ING New York City Marathon to raise money for a local youth center on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Sid Howard is the show's first local hero. He has 48 national master's titles to his name and volunteers for a number of running programs. And Brian Cazeneuve of Sports Illustrated stops by the show to chat about the mystique of the mile as a racing distance.
I hope you'll tune in. Not just as host of the show, but also as someone who has been longing for more running broadcast coverage, who crouches in front of my computer to watch the London, Chicago and other marathons stream live online, and savors the moments runners get to shine on national TV during the Olympics.
Moving from behind the computer to in front of the camera has been an exciting challenge for me. I've still got a lot of learning to do in the world of broadcast, but seeing the stories of so many amazing and, often, unsung runners play out on screen has given me chills.
Check out the show at ontherun.nyrr.org, and we hope to see you on the run.
