7 Tips for Moms Rejoining the Workforce
NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- For many women, starting a family means taking a hiatus from the working world to focus on motherhood. According to the Pew Research Center, 29% of American mothers about 10.4 million women did not work outside the home in 2012. While some moms opt to stay home permanently, those who eventually decide to re-enter the workforce can face unique challenges and uncertainties during their job search. With competition for jobs still fierce in our lackluster economy, moms often fear that gaps on their resume will discourage prospective employers from considering them.

The good news: "Being a stay-at-home mom is by no means a resume killer," says Kristin Kelley, chief marketing officer for recruiting firm Randstad North America. The key is to convince prospective employers that you've kept your skills sharp during your hiatus and you're now fully ready to get back to work.

We've seen the design approaches taken by Jupe and Fletcher to create a circular expanding table. Now let's take a look at the more common table form factor, the rectangle, and some different approaches used to make it expandable.
The first question a designer's got to answer is, where do the leaves go? Are they stored integrally, in Fletcher-like fashion, or meant to be stowed externally, a la Jupe? Resource Furniture's Goliath table takes the latter approach. And while it may seem cumbersome to remove each panel manually and find a place to store them, this is offset by two benefits: The table shrinks down to an almost absurdly small size, offering unmatched space saving, and the length can be customized rather than locking the user into predetermined end lengths.

We traveled south from Addis Ababa to an even more remote region called the Arsi Zone. The landscape became rocky and hilly yet still green, but very different from what we had seen in the Shebedino District. I noticed the people we passed were so striking that I couldn't help taking pictures from the car window as we continued the drive.
The women wore very bright colours from head to toe and carried their children, belongings, food and market wares on their backs. Families traveled in groups, on foot and with many children. The men looked like farmers and dressed in many layers and carried tools. Many men and women also rode horses.
As we saw more families moving together I was struck by how graceful, strong and attractive they all seemed to be. They were tall, bright and happy as they waved to us from the roadside. Many also moved with livestock. I remember thinking how different these images were from most I had seen of East Africans. They were beautiful, powerful and dignified. I totally fell in love with them.

By Sally C. Pipes, Investor's Business Daily
The U.S. Census recently announced that the number of Americans without health insurance in 2011 fell for the first time in three years, to 48.6 million. That's a decrease of 1.3 million from the 2010 figure.
Sounds like good news. But a closer look at the data suggests that this drop is illusory. Even worse, the report shows that two onerous provisions of ObamaCare — the expansion of Medicaid and the requirement that insurers cover children on their parents' policies through age 26 — are making health insurance more expensive and harder to obtain.
Thanks to ObamaCare, the federal government can now essentially dictate to state governments whom they must enroll in Medicaid, the jointly financed federal-state health care program for low-income Americans. Accordingly, the Census data show that the number of Americans covered by Medicaid rose to 50.8 million — up from 48.5 million in 2010. About 16.5% of all Americans are now enrolled in the program.
So the number of Americans with insurance increased by 1.3 million — but the number of people with government-provided insurance through Medicaid jumped by 2.3 million. In other words, a whole lot of people dropped their private coverage and went on the public dole.
ObamaCare has expanded coverage by fiat — not by fixing our broken health care system.
The provisions that will most significantly expand Medicaid don't even kick in until 2014. About half the 30 million uninsured Americans expected to get health insurance through ObamaCare are expected to be covered by Medicaid. The rest will receive subsidies that vary according to income from the federal government.
By 2016, one in four Americans will be enrolled in the program. And yet the Congressional Budget Office predicts that 23 million Americans will remain uninsured by 2019.
Even worse, those already covered by Medicaid aren't getting the care they need.
Medicaid pays doctors substantially less than private insurance. So they often have no choice but to limit the number of Medicaid patients they'll see. In many cases, reimbursements from the program fail to cover their costs — so they lose money.
According to a study published last year by the New England Journal of Medicine, two-thirds of children on Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), another government health care program for the poor, were refused appointments by doctors in the Chicago area. Just 11% of those with private insurance were turned away.
The celebrations in Havana and the sullen silence in Miami tell you all you need to know about who won this round with Castro's Cuba. In JFK's metaphor, Obama traded a horse for a rabbit. We got back Alan Gross before his Communist jailers killed him, along with an American spy, in exchange for ...

Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. Elizabeth Warren are polar opposites, a Tea Party conservative and an Occupy Wall Street socialist. Then there are the similarities: Both were elected in 2012, both have Harvard on their resumes, and both are mentioned as presidential material. But the media's read of the two ...

Temperature and salinity data collected by a SALARGOS buoy during October 1988 northeast of Svalbard, Norway, as part of the Coordinated Eastern Arctic Research Experiment are analyzed. As the buoy drifted across the continental slope, the data show a transition from central Arctic conditions, where the thermocline lies below the halocline, to shelf conditions, where the two coincide. Surface waters on the shelf were above the freezing point, losing heat to sea ice advected southward by the wind. The Atlantic Inflow Current was also observed on the continental slope, with a maximum temperature above 3°C. A storm caused upwelling and entrainment of this current, leading to strong ice-ocean heat fluxes and ice melting. The resulting flux of fresh water stabilized the surface layer and shut off further entrainment.

Another View -- Cass R. Sunstein: We can fight obesity by offering more options on portion size
The problem has many sources, but one of them is obvious: increased portion sizes. We have a lot of evidence that people will eat whatever is put in front of them, even if they aren't hungry. As portion sizes expand, waistlines expand as well.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the average U.S. restaurant meal is more than five times larger than it was in the 1950s. The average hamburger, once less than 4 ounces, is now more than 12 ounces. The average order of French fries, once less than 3 ounces, is now more than 6 ounces. There is a clear correlation between increases in portion sizes and increases in obesity.
That correlation helps explain why obesity has been more prevalent in the United States than in France. The French eat high-calorie food, but their portion sizes are smaller. In supermarkets and restaurants, and in portion sizes recommended in cookbooks, Americans are given significantly bigger servings. Even at McDonald's, where we might expect identical sizes, servings of soda and French fries have been found to be larger in Philadelphia than in Paris.
Brian Wansink, a Cornell University professor of consumer behavior, helps to explain why portion sizes have such a large effect. He finds that much of our eating is mindless or automatic in that we tend to eat whatever is in front of us. If you are given a half-pound bag of M&M's, chances are that you will eat about half as much as you will if you are given a one-pound bag. People who receive large bowls of ice cream eat a lot more than those who get small bowls.
In one of Wansink's fiendish experiments, people were provided with a large bowl of Campbell's tomato soup and told to eat as much as they liked. Unbeknownst to them, the soup bowls were engineered to refill themselves (with empty bottoms connected to machinery beneath the table). No matter how much soup the subjects ate, the bowl never emptied. The result? Soup consumption skyrocketed. Many people just kept eating until the experiment was ended.
The good news is that once we isolate the sources of excessive eating, we will be able to identify potential solutions. Google found that its New York cafeteria, which offered a lot of high-calorie items, was producing a lot of unwanted pounds. In response to employee complaints, it initiated changes to nudge people toward healthier choices. Large plates and takeout containers were exchanged for smaller sizes, and employees were encouraged to eat less with a sign stating, "People who take big plates tend to eat more."
The redesigned cafeteria took a number of smart steps to make healthy choices simpler and more convenient (and to make less healthy choices less so). As a result, it helped to produce big reductions in both calories and fat consumed from candy.
A striking feature of the Google initiative was that employees were grateful for the nudges. There is reason to think that many consumers would respond the same way. In a series of studies, researchers told fast-food servers to ask customers whether they wanted to "downsize" their high-calorie side dishes. A substantial number (from 14 percent to 33 percent of those served) consistently agreed to do so. Strikingly, they accepted the offer whether or not they were offered a nominal 25 cent discount. Their total calorie consumption was reduced, on average, by more than 200.
Evidence is increasing that lower-calorie servings can be good for business. One reason is consumer demand. Many customers like, and reward, restaurants that provide light options; an easy way to provide such options is to cut portion sizes. Another reason is the increasing practice, often undertaken voluntarily and eventually to be required by the Affordable Care Act, of posting calorie counts on menus. Customers can be surprised to see just how many calories come from the standard portions of their favorite meals. They may not want to switch to a meal they enjoy less, but a smaller portion may suit them just fine. (Parents and dieters, please take note.)
The broader lesson is that obesity levels, in the U.S. and elsewhere, are hardly inevitable. They are a product of the social context in which people's choices are made. With careful attention to the subtle social cues that lead to excessive eating, we should be able to make a real dent in a serious public health problem.

Score Not updated yet??
hello everybody, happy thursday to all. I think Im posting this in the wrong section I do not know what section to post this in. I have a question about my scores I have posted here before. I had to use a bunch of my cards in october for a funeral, and ran them up. I paid off all the balances except for one in november, and most of them before the statement was released. I was probably at 78 percent utilization in october with about 20,000 available credit, and as of december Im pretty sure im at 20 to 23 percent now. its been almost a week since most of my cycles ended with zero balance, and according to simulators, my score should go from a then 630, to 690 to 700. I have been in the 700s before, which I miss. And thanks to this lovely site, I would like to open a few new cards and close some to get my desired credit wallet. I would Love the AMex BCE, chase sapphire, or bank of america. I currently have 3 citis, 3 capital ones, one of them was fomally HBSC, Walmart, chase freedom, An escape by discover, paypal smart connect, and a bill me later. All of these have zero balances 1 citi, and all of these have been opened for over 2 years except bill me later and discover, it will be 7 months in discover. And this month in december will be 3 yeasrs for my chase and 2 citis. I Would like to get rid of the capital ones, and 1 of the citis, and the bill me later if they dont increase my limit. lol the point of me typing all of this is to wonder when will my score be updated with the one the simulator gave me, lol it is now the 6th and the latest due date for one of my cards was the 28th. I got score watch, i got an update on the second and now my score with ex is 660 and walmart is 665. Im sorry this is so long!!!


text: We started with 26 eggs, which sounded amazing, but ended up with only 8 embryos. I'm a little miffed because we had planned to use ICSI but they decided to try without which didn't go well, then they did partial ICSI. I think we'd have more embryos if they'd gone with the original plan. Anyway, this would give us four attempts if they only put in two at a time, their policy. Trying to be optimistic. Not looking forward to the two week wait of madness. What else can I expect after today? I understand that if I'm pregnant, I have to continue these awful shots for ten weeks! My clinic does a blood test in two weeks then an ultrasound 3 wks later, so I have a long time to wait for info. They say not to do a preg test because it may be inaccurate, but have any of you done that while waiting?

C's temporary captain, Richard Castillo, was also found ruminating in one of the Strange New Worlds (SNW 3, I believe) anthologies about the Narendra 3 battle.
I didn't count that because the ship itself didn't appear.
Question:are the SNWs considered to be part of the greater continuity that the authors can take cues from (similar to how you guys and gals tend to work together to more consistently carry over elements from books written by different authors *), though the aforementioned SNW story appears to disregard established canon regarding that battle?
As with most things in TrekLit, there's no overarching rule about the continuity. The various SNW stories were certainly not in continuity with each other; there were a couple of contradictory Borg origins, several contradictory sequels to "City on the Edge of Forever" and "A Piece of the Action," two different versions of Nog's
Kobayashi Maru
test (never mind that the KM is for command-track seniors so Nog should never have taken it at all), etc. And a number of the stories contradicted previous novels, though a few did draw on the novel continuity.
However, a few individual SNW stories have been memorable enough that novelists have chosen to reference them. One of Greg Cox's Gary Seven novels referenced Dayton Ward's Gary/Roberta story in SNW III. I drew on Bill Leisner's DTI story from SNW II in my DTI novels. The name for Sarek's mother established in an SNW story was referenced in one of the post-finale ENT novels. The Scotty-focus SCE novella "The Future Begins" references a couple of SNW stories about Scotty.

In this absorbing story of the changing life of a community, the authors of Deaf in America reveal historical events and forces that have shaped the ways that Deaf people define themselves today. Inside Deaf Culture relates Deaf people's search for a voice of their own, and their proud self-discovery and self-description as a flourishing culture.
Padden and Humphries show how the nineteenth-century schools for the deaf, with their denigration of sign language and their insistence on oralist teaching, shaped the lives of Deaf people for generations to come. They describe how Deaf culture and art thrived in mid-twentieth century Deaf clubs and Deaf theatre, and profile controversial contemporary technologies.
Most triumphant is the story of the survival of the rich and complex language American Sign Language, long misunderstood but finally recently recognized by a hearing world that could not conceive of language in a form other than speech. In a moving conclusion, the authors describe their own very different pathways into the Deaf community, and reveal the confidence and anxiety of the people of this tenuous community as it faces the future.
Inside Deaf Culture celebrates the experience of a minority culture--its common past, present debates, and promise for the future. From these pages emerge clear and bold voices, speaking out from inside this once silenced community.

RE: Joseph Adams
I was excited too when finding the amount of people's graves. One was Charles Adams who died at 6 months old. My Dad never knew about him. He was a brother to your grandpa & my grandma.
As far as arriving in America, it was a Thomas Ignatius Adams (1735-1776). Find a grave says Ireland but on ancestry.com it had England where he came from. I'm going with England though. Their was a document he signed on April 23, 1750, so he was in the Conewago area at that time.
William Adams (1863-1930) parents were John & Catherine Althoff Adams. John Adams (1833-1900) parents were Thomas & Mary Adams. Thomas Adams ((1797-1879) parents were Ignatius & Maria Anna Hoffman Adams. Ignatius Adams (1766-1853) parents were Thomas Ignatius Adams & Magdalene Adams. Thomas died in 1776 at the age of 41, his wife Magdalene lived to be 104 years old!! That's as far back as I got on find a grave. It's been fun researching everyone that I could find!! Hope to hear from you again!! I called my parents & they said your parents & you should stop by & visit some time. They still live where they used to. Take Care! Laura

Hello to you too!!!! My grandma was Hilda Adams Kessler (then remarried after my grandpa died) Crawford. Hilda was William & Jennie Adams 9th child & your grandpa was their 7th child. I'm so glad to "meet" you!!! I'm sort of obsessed with learning about my ancestors! My dad is Bob Kessler. Your parent (child of grandpa Joe) may know him!?!? Are you in the Hanover area? We live close to McSherystown but have a Hanover address. Take care & if you want any ancestor info just let me know! Have a great day!! Laura Kessler Hershey.

As the line between editorial and advertorial continues to blur, so does the public's confidence in content from publications versus brands, as evidenced by new industry research that explores this topic-with some unexpected results. A new study by Vibrant shows that only two% more of consumers trust content from publications (35%) than from brands (33%); and yet, there are more consumers who distrust content from publications (18%) than there are who distrust content from brands (15.5%). Additionally, the number of consumers that distrust content from media titles they know (12%) is double the number who distrust content from brands that they know (6%).

With the proliferation of search-oriented online content providers such as AOL, Yahoo!, Demand Media, and About.com, internet users are increasingly likely to find that most of the general searches they do return results from these SEO-oriented content creators. Whether this is a good or a bad thing from the user perspective remains to be seen—and opinions vary—but one thing is certain: Competing with these search-result-savvy content providers can present challenges for traditional publishing companies and enterprises that hope to increase their rank on search engines to attract visitors to their own sites.
Most general searches these days result in a high percentage of results that reflect domains such as About, eHow.com, Suite101.com, Examiner.com, etc.; all are examples of sites whose content is created by literally thousands of contributors hired to create content to appeal to the masses.
Why? It's a combination of the sheer volume of information owned and controlled by these sites and the power of SEO (search engine optimization). The content game—once dominated by traditional publishers—is increasingly something organizations of all types are participating in. It is also something that traditional search companies such as Yahoo! and Google are moving into full force. Thus, search and content are becoming more and more intertwined.
Information search results were once almost solely the purview of name brand content companies. Today, however, top results (which may in fact be quite useful results) often come from cryptic sources, and information sources are not always immediately apparent. Demand Media, for instance, purchased Cracked.com in 2006, and its writers regularly provide content for the "Top 10" lists that appear prominently on Cracked's homepage, with no mention of Demand Media to be found. Other content providers such as Associated Content provide a myriad of sources with content that may or may not be exclusive, meaning that web searchers have the potential to find the same information, from all of these aggregators, in multiple places. That said, previously unknown brands are becoming increasingly well-known, for example, About and eHow.
Brand name or not, sourced or not, the value of the content is in the eye of the consumer.
Giovanni Calabro, VP of user experience at Siteworx, notes that casual internet searchers are happy if the content that comes back to them eventually leads to the information they're looking for. He doesn't believe that they pay much attention to the source of that content. "If I'm looking for Lindsey Lohan, for example, if whatever comes back leads me to content about her, I'm happy. I don't know if they're going to sense that content as being generic or not. They're looking for something so general, it doesn't matter where they're receiving it from."
The good news, at least for now, is that the rise of companies such as Demand Media and eHow only reinforces the fact that there's plenty of content demand and room for many content sources on the web. The trick, of course, is that everyone wants to sit at the top of that ever-valuable results list.

Charming little gem of a film.
Ecstatically life affirming and insightful!
I've had an ever changing list of "Favorite Movies" throughout my life and I realize now that how strongly a movie becomes beloved is 90% about how old I am at the time I see the film. Well, at 59 years old, this is my new favorite movie!
If you've traveled much, it takes you right back to the excitement, exhaustion, disappointment and exhilaration of arriving in a porter country, not knowing quite what to expect. It captures the personal changes that happen by being in a completely different culture - and all of the ways those completely different people are exactly the same as you and I - in their values, desires & dreams. An Exceptional Movie!
Delightful film and love all the actors especially Judi and Maggie. As others mentioned I didn't know what to expect so a bit slow in start but realized the film was building its characters. Finding happiness later in life is wonderful! **** stars.
Movie is entertaining. Has a lot of dry type humor. Probably more enjoyable for middle age viewers than younger.
Lovely film. Addressed culture, love and homosexuality. Of course, Bill Nighy is one of my favorite actors.
I didn't know what to expect before watching this, but I laughed a lot throughout the entire film. There were sad parts, but mostly this movie was upbeat and very enjoyable.
Enjoyed this film. Didn't know what to expect but I love stories about people and their relationships and this ticked all the boxes.
It was a very good movie that could have been great if the ending had been handled differently. It was too corny for my liking.
What a gem of a film. Far better than QUARTET (which I liked.) Judi Dench was brilliant but Dev Patel is the crazy glue that gels this memorable story.
This was the story of several individuals who decide to retire to the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel in India. Each character has a story to tell and work out for themselves, sometimes with help from the other characters. Don't let my 3 & 1/2 star rating put you off. That was only b/c I thought it ran a little long. The acting was superb and the stories were intriguing.

Most significantly the agency said it will not allow Verizon Wireless stores to sell TV and broadband services from the cable companies â¿¿ Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Bright House Networks and Cox â¿¿ in areas where Verizon sells its own TV and broadband service.
When it comes to home broadband, Verizon Communication Inc.'s FiOS provides the only significant competition to cable in many areas. Yet FiOS is costly to build out, and Verizon's commitment to the technology has faltered. Consumer groups who opposed the deal between the cable companies and Verizon said it showed that Verizon was further giving up on FiOS and yielding the home broadband market to cable.
US unemployment aid applications up by only 2,000WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ The number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits edged up slightly last week but remained at a level consistent with modest gains in hiring. Unemployment benefit applications rose by 2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 366,000, the Labor Department said. The less volatile four-week average fell by 5,500 to 363,750. That was the lowest level since late March. Applications have trended lower in the past two months, indicating companies are laying off fewer workers and hiring is picking up. When applications fall consistently below 375,000, it generally suggests hiring is strong enough to lower the unemployment rate. ___ US home construction dips, but signs point up WASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ U.S. builders broke ground on slightly fewer homes in July than June. But in a hopeful sign for future construction, applications for building permits rose to their highest level since August 2008. The Commerce Department said Thursday that single-family homes and apartments started in July dipped 1.1 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 746,000. That's down from June's rate of 754,000, the fastest since October 2008. The weakness in July came from a 6.5 percent drop in the building of single-family homes, which represent about 70 percent of the market. They fell to an annual rate of 502,000, down from a two-year high reached in June. By contrast, construction of apartments rose 12.4 percent to an annual rate of 244,000 units.

FOX Sports Exclusive
Don't convict Braun just yet
OK, so why would Ryan Braun's attorneys use Anthony Bosch, a person of ill repute, as a consultant in their appeal of Braun's positive drug test in 2011?
CACTUS LEAGUEGet news, video, schedules and more from spring training in Arizona.
Because, according to Benjamin Brafman, a well-known criminal-defense lawyer, attorneys occasionally seek information from miscreants on subcultures with which the attorneys are not familiar.
"I've done it. I know a lot of very good, highly respected criminal-defense lawyers who have consulted with people that might have unsavory reputations," said Brafman, who has no connection to Braun.
"Sometimes they may have certain experiences that you try to learn from. I've consulted with loan sharks, street gamblers, drug dealers who might impart insight that I'm not going to get from a high-quality trained professional."
So, Braun's explanation for why his name appears in records from Biogenesis, the anti-aging clinic that Bosch operated in South Florida, is at least plausible. Braun said in a statement that his only connection to Bosch is through his attorneys, who briefly dealt with Bosch.
Still, even if you believe Braun's account — the player declined further comment at the Milwaukee Brewers' spring-training complex on Saturday — it's fair to ask why his attorneys took such a risk.
Bosch is not a doctor. His father, Pedro, an actual physician, was the source for the banned substance that triggered a positive test and 50-game suspension for Manny Ramirez in May 2009, according to an ESPN.com report that summer. The report identified Anthony Bosch as a contact between his father and Ramirez.
PICTURE SHOWSee all the best images from spring training in Arizona and Florida.
The younger Bosch, then, was not exactly a secret in baseball circles. And still Braun's attorneys went ahead.
Associate with a lowlife, and you might get into a financial dispute — which, according to Braun, is precisely what happened between his attorneys and Bosch, leading to the inclusion of Braun's name in the Biogenesis records.
Associate with a lowlife, and your cover might be blown if the lowlife is exposed — and a series of reports, starting with one in the Miami New Times, identified Bosch as a supplier of performance-enhancing drugs, though Braun has not been clearly established as one of his customers.
If Braun did nothing wrong, he has nothing to fear from baseball's investigation into Biogenesis, to which he has pledged full cooperation. He also would have nothing to fear from a federal investigation, which may be taking place as well.
But the mere appearance of Braun's name in the Biogenesis records gave baseball an opportunity to go after him again – and baseball, you might recall, was not happy about losing Braun's appeal a year ago.
Was reaching out to Bosch, if that's all that occurred, worth all the trouble?
Braun's attorneys used more than 10 consultants, according to a source, and spoke with Bosch only briefly in 2011, at the beginning of the case. The source said that neither Braun nor his attorneys paid Bosch, prompting the dispute between the parties. Braun's lead attorney, David Cornwell, issued a statement saying that Bosch's contributions were "negligible."
The connection, however minimal, still led to Braun getting linked to Biogenesis, according to Braun's own account. Now, imagine if a breach of Braun's confidentiality never had occurred in 2011, and his positive drug test and successful appeal never had become public.
How would Braun have explained his name surfacing in Biogenesis' records without revealing that he tested positive?
Risk. Too much risk.
COMING CLEANThe Mitchell Report blew the lid off MLB's steroid culture. See which players have admitted to PED use.
"When a criminal-defense lawyer has to associate with someone from the street, there is always a risk," said Brafman, whose list of clients includes Plaxico Burress, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs and the late Michael Jackson.
"You have to be very careful. You have to take whatever precautions that you see as appropriate at the time. Because they are unsavory, there is no way to protect yourself 100 percent that this discussion doesn't come back to haunt you.
"Your concern is how important is the information, who are they, how well you can protect yourself so that it doesn't suggest a relationship that is inappropriate."
Braun said in his statement that his attorneys "were previously familiar" with Bosch, though he did not specify the nature of the relationship. If his attorneys' familiarity with Bosch did not breed contempt, it certainly should have fostered an extreme degree of caution.
Yet, as long as Braun's name is not directly linked to PEDs in Bosch's records — and it wasn't in two reports thus far — he can stick to his story: My attorneys were the ones who contacted Bosch. Not me.
Some in Braun's camp, in fact, say that there is less ambiguity in his supposed connection with Bosch than there was in his appeal of a positive test for elevated testosterone in Oct. 2011.
Braun won his appeal and avoided suspension when his legal team and the players' union successfully argued a broken chain of custody. But Braun never fully explained why he tested positive in the first place.
Bosch, according to Braun, answered his attorneys' "questions about T/E ratio and possibilities of tampering with samples." Braun and his attorneys eventually pointed out that his 20:1 testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio was three times higher than any previously recorded, suggesting a faulty test — but that point, sources said, was not the basis for Braun's successful appeal.
A normal ratio is 1:1; a ratio of 4:1 triggers a second, more sophisticated test, one that showed Braun had synthetic testosterone in his system — and one that he did not dispute in his hearing, according to ESPN.com.
Did Braun win his appeal on a technicality? Yes. But when you're talking about due process, technicalities matter.
During the initial debate over steroid testing, the players' union was concerned that management would not follow proper procedures, trampling players' rights. Shyam Das, baseball's arbitrator at the time, ruled that the collector of Braun's sample did not follow the proper procedures — procedures that later were amended.
It was wrong to pre-judge Braun then, and it would be wrong to pre-judge him or any of the other players named in the Biogenesis records now. As Michael Weiner, head of the players' union, said recently, "This investigation that MLB is running has yet to produce any evidence that any player has violated the (testing) program."
MILITARY MISSIONFOX Sports brought spring training to the Troops at US Army Garrison Grafenwoehr in Germany.
Until there is evidence, there can be no suspensions. Until there are suspensions, there should be no assumptions. Braun and the others allegedly linked to Biogenesis are entitled to a presumption of innocence — as opposed to, say, a trial by media.
Still, questions linger.
If Braun is telling the truth, what were his attorneys thinking?
Associate with a lowlife, and you're taking a risk. Associate with a lowlife, and you're asking for trouble.

If someone would have told me 8 weeks ago I would be exercising 5-6 times a week by August, I would have had difficulty wrapping my head around that ... but it's TRUE! I've learned that exercise can completely turn my day around. It makes me feel GREAT! It helps me to control my blood sugar. My heart feels stronger. My blood pressure is crazy good. I sleep better. I feel more positive. I accomplish more.
I've learned the importance of drinking plenty of water. I now drink a minimum of 64 oz of water each day. Many days I drink 72 oz or more. My skin is beautiful and I've been told I "glow." I honestly think that's a combination of clean eating, exercise, water and vitamins.
I still eat out ... but SO much less. I'm spending my hard earned money on quality, healthy, fresh foods and I'm packing my lunch every day on work days. Some days I pack my breakfast. No more passes through Dunkin' Donuts drive thru (besides ... my coffee is better anyway). In fact, I've given up fast food for the most part. There was one day when I needed lunch and picked up a small chili and side salad from Wendy's, but I can make both better at home and usually do. I bought myself a trendy lunch bag (that really looks like a handbag) and I pack it each morning and clean it each evening. I invested in a good stainless travel mug at Target and I take my coffee each day with fat free half & half instead of 1/4 cup of cream from Dunkin! I plan around any special events or social engagements by trying to educate myself on the menu in advance and act accordingly. Sometimes I decline invitations because I don't really care to go, especially if there are no good choices for me. I've learned it's okay to decline sometimes if I don't really want to go!
I've learned how important it is for me to have proper rest. I function so much better at my job/around home and I can kick some a$$ at the gym if I'm well rested and following a good food plan.
I've learned to track each day, every bite, my water, blood glucose, exercise ... all of it. I can't know if I'm getting the nutrients I need if I'm not tracking and besides, I don't want to cheat myself out of one bite!
I've learned not to be intimidated by going to the gym or anyone who steps food in one. I have a purpose for being there and others probably care about as much about what I'm doing as I do them. I've learned to pack my gym bag so it's ready to go because it makes it more convenient for me. I try to add steps to my day whenever possible, by parking further, taking the steps (I don't get winded anymore) or making more trips than needed.
I reward myself with massages, pedicures, manicures, new sneakers or exercise clothing ... no more food rewards, it's so counter productive.
I read as much as I can about living a healthy life (plenty right here on SP each day) and by picking up a magazine here or there as an added bonus to myself.
I enjoy sharing the journey with the many friends and acquaintances I've made on SP. I look forward to continuing along this journey together, sharing victories and sorrows, learning together, living better with each other.
Did you ever notice when you're feeling up and doing everything in your power to live a healthy life ... some people are bothered by it or worse yet, completely ignore it?
"You're not eating enough."
"You're exercising too much."
"You'll go to the gym twice and quit."
Or worse yet ... someone who knows you well refuses to give you any credit whatsoever for your efforts, almost as if nothing has changed in your lifestyle with the way you eat, the way you exercise, even your overall attitude.
That happened to me this morning and at first it honked me off ... but now I'm just smiling about it. The same person is sitting at her desk coughing. Someone asked if she's okay and she replied, "I'm choking on something.
" I didn't say it, but I thought ... "go ahead, smoke another cigarette!"
Vent over!
I have this feeling if I keep pushing, I'm going to make a breakthrough in the next week or two. It feels like the calm before a great electrical storm. I'm charged up. I'm increasing the intensity of my workouts. I'm breaking through the barriers I've always sabotaged myself with in the past. I'm eating healthy foods and tracking what I eat. I'm drinking water and lots of it. I'm powerful with bad temptations and using my willpower to the max.
I'm changing ... my mind, my body, my spirit!
Stay tuned for Sparkabella's S*P*A*R*K*S !!!!!
I changed the ringtone on my phone to James Brown's "I Feel Good" because I truly do!
Went to the fitness center on my lunch hour (which is now 90 minutes instead of 60, thanks to my boss, so I can exercise on my lunch break instead of after work). I just stay an extra half hour at the end of the day. In my mind, that's MUCH better than having to tote it back out in the evening to exercise. More time to play with Aldo!
Got a good 15 minutes in on the elliptical, then worked my back/chest/shoulders in the weight room, then another 15 minutes on the elliptical. I've read conflicting reports about whether it's best to do cardio or strength training because of burning muscle instead of fat. What do you think?
Got a quick shower and back to my office to snack on my lunch (turkey breast and lorraine swiss on Fiber One Multigrain bread, and raw yellow bell pepper strips, carrots, and celery. Had a Kashi protein bar before my workout and my blood sugar is sweet! Afternoon snack will be half of a banana and some almonds.
I've already had 64 oz. of water and I've tracked every bite.
I feel good...so good!
First of all, it's pretty rare that I would have blog-worthy content twice in the same day ... but today I totally do!
My plan was to avoid the church picnic today. This is the picnic where everyone brings their most evil (and most delicious) dish, none of which are typically healthy or good for a diabetic or anyone for that matter! A friend of mine was really pressing me to go -- and I thought, "hey, I can't skip every social event just because I don't want to face temptation. Temptation is EVERYwhere. I can do this. I've got it. I'm rocking it."
I took fresh fruit and veggies. I blew past every side dish (including the salads because God only knows what was in the dressings that were already added). I loaded up half of my plate with raw veggies, 1/2 of a burger, and about half of a cup of fresh fruit. I also drank 2 bottles of water. I totally bypassed the rolls, mac and cheese, mayonnaise-based white pasta salads, pink fluffy looking stuff, meatballs, Italian sausage ... ALL of it. And I didn't even glance at the desert table. I know what I saw people carrying around and that was enough to convince me to not even look!!
I actually didn't have enough carbs! Came home and had some low sodium pretzels with hummus to hold me over until dinner.
VICTORY! Warrior girl wins again.
Oh, and I continuously whine about how I've only lost 10 lbs., but several people commented at the picnic and asked me if I'm losing weight!

It's convenience - close to where I wanted to visit.
Not just this hotel - most hotels have doors which, unless great care is taken, close very noisily. Plus sound of other guests in the corridor could be heard in the room.

Clean and quite. Location was where we needed to be but very busy part of the city.
Checkin was a little crazy as the person in front of me had been given a room that was already occupied. Made me a little concerned.
This hotel looked clean and neat. I would stay there again.
