Gear Review
Warm but awkward
Evan Hyde
Member since
These warmers are great for those cool rides when you put them on at the start of the ride and leave them on all day. The wind proof fabric is warm, but it makes it difficult to take the warmers off and put them back on while riding because it doesn't stretch much. Also, if it heats up, the wind proof fabric traps sweat on the inside of the warmer which can feel a bit uncomfortable.

How to Walk In a Winter Wonderland with Your Dog
Baby, It's Cold Outside
Just because a dog has a fur coat doesn't mean he wants to go outside in the bitter cold without some protection. According to Steve Graham, "Dogs regulate heat through their paws, and snow and ice on their feet can be very uncomfortable, particularly if ice builds up in hair around the paws. Dog boots can protect those paws. Also, small dogs and short-haired breeds may be more comfortable in a sweater outdoors in winter."
A quick zip out the doggie door or as you stand at the back door without coats and boots is generally fine but for any longer outings make sure your pets are warm and safe.
Are you ready for winter? Is your dog? A lot of dogs love to play in the snow and go for nice long walks, but the cold and snow pose potential dangers.
Since you can't keep your dog locked inside until spring returns, we've got some tips to keep him warm and safe during your winter walks.
After a walk, be sure to wipe your dog's paws down with a towel or baby wipes to get all of the salt, mud and debris out from between the pads. Also check your dog's legs and belly. Don't worry – your dog will learn to love this, and you'll appreciate not having to clean your house after being outdoors.
Dogs Can't Ice Skate, Right?
A swim in the lake or pond on a hot summer's day is a real treat for any dog, but in the winter, that same inviting body of water is frozen over and dangerous. People, let alone dogs, have a difficult time judging the thickness of a frozen lake or pond. If your dog falls through the ice, are you prepared to jump in after him? Probably not, so it's best to steer your dog clear of water.
Leash Him Up
Picture it: A beautiful, wide-open field covered in fresh snow as far as the eye can see, and no other dogs or people around so the spot is your dog's for the taking. But before you let your dog off his leash to make paw angels, know that snow can seriously hinder his sniffing capabilities, which puts him at risk for getting lost.
DogTopics.com says, "The snow and cold weather are very good at muffling scents, and dogs can easily become lost as their ability to follow their scent track back to you is dramatically reduced."
Instead of letting your dog off his leash to run, run with him and make paw angels together. Your dog will get a kick out of watching you play in the snow, and you'll probably have more fun doing this than you would just standing there in the freezing cold, watching your dog have all the fun.
Lastly, make sure he is wearing his collar with your current contact information just in case he does get lost. Better yet, get him a microchip in case he loses his collar. It's well worth the one-time fee.
Don't Drink That!
A puddle of water is very tempting to a thirsty dog, but you should never, ever let your dog drink from puddles, regardless of the time of year. You have no idea what could be lurking in that nasty brown water.
"Puddles can contain a number of hazards, particularly when you are in the city – antifreeze, screen wash and salt can all be toxic to your dog if swallowed," states DogTopics.com. Ingesting bacteria from puddles can cause a serious infection called leptospirosis.
The same goes for dogs living in the 'burbs or the country: Do not let them drink from any puddle.
It's So Cold, Even Polar Bears are Staying Inside
If the weather man is warning you to stay inside because it's bone-chillingly, take-your-breath-away, freeze-your-tushie-off cold, then it's probably wise to keep your dog inside as well. Just because you can't walk your dog doesn't mean you shouldn't find some way to help him burn off some energy indoors. Play a game of hide-and-seek or race for the treat.
If your dog spends a lot of time outside
A dog or cat is happiest and healthiest when kept indoors. If for some reason your dog is outdoors much of the day, he or she must be protected by a dry, draft-free shelter that is large enough to allow the dog to sit and lie down comfortably, but small enough to hold in his/her body heat. The floor should be raised a few inches off the ground and covered with cedar shavings or straw. The house should be turned to face away from the wind, and the doorway should be covered with waterproof burlap or heavy plastic.
Keep feral and stray cats warm
If there are ferals or strays in your neighborhood, remember that they need protection from the elements. It's easy to give them shelter.
Look, Ma! It Glows in the Dark!
Winter brings with it longer nights and shorter days, which means you'll most likely be walking your dog when it's still dark or getting dark. Make sure you're both wearing at least one piece of reflective clothing so drivers can see both of you. This can be something as simple as a reflective vest or collar – just make sure it's clearly visible on your dog.
Dogs pretty much make any activity better, and just because it's cold outside doesn't mean you both can't have fun. Use these tips and you and your dog will have a great time walking in a winter wonderland.
The best tip of all: keep your pets with you
Probably the best prescription for winter's woes is to keep your dog or cat inside with you and your family. The happiest dogs are those who are taken out frequently for walks and exercise, but kept inside the rest of the time.

Save a Life…Adopt Just One More…Pet!
Everyday we read or hear another story about pets and other animals being abandoned in record numbers while at the same time we regularly hear about crazy new rules and laws being passed limiting the amount of pets that people may have, even down to one or two… or worse yet, none.
Nobody is promoting hoarding pets or animals, but at a time when there are more pets and animals of all types being abandoned or being taken to shelters already bursting at the seams, there is nothing crazier than legislating away the ability of willing adoptive families to take in just one more pet!!
Our goal is to raise awareness and help find homes for all pets and animals that need one by helping to match them with loving families and positive situations. Our goal is also to help fight the trend of unfavorable legislation and rules in an attempt to stop unnecessary Euthenization!!
"All over the world, major universities are researching the therapeutic value of pets in our society and the number of hospitals, nursing homes, prisons and mental institutions which are employing full-time pet therapists and animals is increasing daily." ~ Betty White, American Actress, Animal Activist, and Author of Pet Love
'Until One Has Loved an Animal, Part of Their Sour Remains Unawakened'
So if you have the room in your home and the love in your heart… Adopt Just One More Pet or consider becoming a Foster parent for pets… Also check out: Little Critter: Just One More Pet

There is always room for Just One More Pet. So if you have room in your home and room in your heart… Adopt Just One More! If you live in an area that promotes unreasonable limitations on pets… fight the good fight and help change the rules and legislation…

Packed with information and advice Seven step-by-step demonstrations Over 250 step-by-step photographs Dozens of inspiring paintings ...more
This is definitely a guide to watercolor painting that no artist can afford to be without. It is absolutely packed with information and advice. David Bellamy is a skilled water colorist in his own right, and the book is full of examples of his work.
Topics covered including creating compositions, still life, understanding tone, buildings, painting people, coastal scenery and landscapes. There are step by step instructions for specific projects relating to a pottery still life, a hedgerow, old farmhouse, harbor scene and unusually - a scene portraying women at a Peruvian market. The instructions are extremely clear - anyone can follow them and get a reasonable picture as a result.
Do you paint realistically or use your imagination? Should you be looser in your work? What are advantages of working from nature? How can you train your visual memory? These and lots of other questions are answered in a very practical way.
Whether you are wanting an introduction to water color or are seeking to develop your skills - this has to be one of the most essential books you can find.

Ten-year yields fell 38 basis points to 6.99 percent at 1:04 p.m. London time, falling below 7 percent for the first time since July 19.

Are we currently supposed to be able to play a 5v5 team ranked game? (It's not working for my team?)
I'm sorry riot, but the majority of my real life friends have
I'm sorry riot, but the majority of my real life friends and about half of my friends list has quit this game in the last couple of weeks awaiting this patch, and i haven't played a game for almost a week either.
What you have done only caters to people who were unranked in the first place, or were below 1500 or something and casual players.
Removing elo has lost the addictive nature of this game, and the motivation for most people to play. Imagine this: most youngsters these days really do relate that elo number to their self worth.
Whoever made this idea might be the cause of a lot of you losing jobs at riot, and perhaps the end of this game.
I guess I shouldn't be complaining, i'm graduating university this year and it's very tough, and this game was holding me back from accomplishing what I needed to from life.
Still though, I cannot believe you guys would think this wouldn't ruin your game.

according to "in other words, losing can never cause you to fall below 0 League Points in the lowest division of your league " you cant drop from gold to silver. can you please tell me if you can or cannot
The change is great and all but do something about foreigners playing on the US servers. Especially in ranked, half the game is decided at the champion select, if you have people that cant, are impaired or unwilling to communicate then you put that team at a distinct disadvantage. Please make it so that people in the asias, or south/central americas cannot come to the american servers. This game is large enough that they have no reason to not be on their respective servers.
What happens now if you dodge ranked query? Do you lose league points or are u penalized by just being made to wait 5 min and so on?
RIOT MAKE A VOTE KICK SYSTEM IN RANKED QUEUE........ its unfair to penalise the good guy for dodging and saving his team a frustrating 20 minutes and elo loss.. however if people are able to votekick the troll ( giving the troll atleast a 5 mnute/ then 10 / then 15 / then thirty minte wait) trolls will be discouraged and more or less non-existant INGAME..
the pros offered by this votekick system far outweight the cons and allow the majority of the league playerbase to play ranked properly and allows them to gain divisions in this alreyd harder gaining league system. by votekicking u will render trolls non-existant hopefully and allow good fun challenging FIVEonFIVE games instead of the common 4v5 or 5v4 u find in the lower elos
I see a very major hole in this new system, and I'm curious how you will go about stabilizing it. it won't happen overnight, but without a way to be demoted down a tier, eventually everyone will end up in the top tier. the highest skilled players will first move up to it, then the highest skilled in the next lowest will eventually make it there, making the job of being promoted tiers much easier to the ones who would've been demoted. the pattern will repeat until you get people from bronze tier working on promotions through the ranks because only silver and bronze players remain to compete for those promotions. it's not an overnight thing, but within a year it will be a noticeable problem, I'm very curious how you plan to stabilize it. (I may be entirely wrong in this, if I am I apologize in advance)

text: I'm a vegetarian Hindu - I ordered the veggie burrito and to my horror and disgust, I was served a beef burrito. After one bite I realised and alerted the waiter who's response was 'mistakes happen, ill get you a veg one'. No apology or remorse. When I explained that I was Hindu and this was against my religion his response was 'how was I to know it was against your religion'. I was horrified with his response and attitude and complete carefree manner. I physically vomited given I've managed to avoid meat for 29 years (my whole life) and thanks to Chico Bandito this is no longer the case. To make matters worse, the restaurant actually then charged me double for the replacement burrito and the original beef one! The manager (a bald man) was more apologetic and did not charge for the meal after some arguing. If anyone has any experience of pursuing compensation claims for such incidents (meat eaters may laugh but genuinely this will scar me for life) then please do get in touch.

A federal appeals court has given the go-ahead for two former employees of Boeing at its Mesa plant to sue the company for discrimination.
In a unanimous decision, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said district court Judge Frederick Martone was wrong to throw out the complaints of Antonia Castron and Renee Wrede before they were given a chance to argue their claims to a jury. The judges said the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which represents the pair, presented sufficient evidence to show that there is a basis for their lawsuit.
The ruling does not mean that they have won their case, but it simply gives them their day in court.
Court records from the 2005 lawsuit show that Castron, after working sporadically for Boeing for several years, joined its electrical engineering department in 1997 as a liaison engineer. From 1998 until she was let go in 2003, she worked under department manager Bill Charlton, who reviewed the performance evaluations given by supervisors to liaison engineers.
In a deposition, a male Boeing employee said Charlton frequently made "demeaning and derogatory" comments about women, ranging from he "just didn't have time" to train them to that they were "not worth a (expletive)."
This male employee said Charlton said his own ex-wife, a Boeing worker, "should be at home, not working" and that women should come to him trained, an expectation he never mentioned about male engineers.
At the suggestion of another supervisor, Castron asked to be transferred to another department for career advancement rather than harassment. She did not get the transfer she requested but, after a period of time, she was moved to another department, this one under a supervisor who she said had referred to her as a "little girl."
Castron said she also was concerned that this new department was outside her core area of expertise, fearing that would make her vulnerable in a planned reduction in force. Despite the fact that Charlton assured her she would not be subject to the RIF cuts, she was let go.
Wrede's situation was different, being let go after getting low scores on an RIF evaluation despite recording higher ones previously.
The court also noted that she and six men with her same skill codes were given RIF notices, though all the men managed to avoid layoffs. Five were offered other positions within Boeing. Wrede said she was never told about those other spots.
Justice Michael Hawkins, writing for the appellate court, said anyone bringing alleging violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits workplace discrimination, "must first establish a prima facie case of discrimination by offering evidence that gives rise to an inference of unlawful discrimination."
At that point, he said, the employer needs to "articulate some legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for the challenged action." Then it is up to the employee to show that the proffered reason is just pretext.
In the case of Castron, Hawkins said, the EEOC said there was enough evidence to show that her supervisor acted improperly in how he denied her initial transfer request and, subsequently, how she was transferred to another department.
"Taking note of all the direct and circumstantial evidence, a jury might conclude that Charlton deliberately set Castron up to fail because of her sex or because of her invocation of Title VII rights," the judge said.
As to Wrede, Hawkins said there is enough for her to pursue the case because of the fact that she was the only employee who received an RIF that was actually let go, and the only woman in the group. He said a jury also could find, based on testimony by others, that her RIF scores were not credible.
The appellate court initially issued its decision in April, but the judges decided earlier this month to honor a request by EEOC to "publish" it, meaning its findings of what constitutes discrimination can be cited as precedent in future discrimination cases.

I personally have never been embarrassed by it because in my mind I believe I need to be a good stewart with our money. And I do what I can reguardless.
|Fri, 05-28-2010 - 9:45am
No, not embarrassed. I sometimes like to flaunt it, too :) I come from a big family, and I mostly wore hand-me-downs; I remember being excited to go clothes shopping...at the thrift store! I still go to thrift stores and resale stores today for our family. We shop at Aldi as much as possible. I've had people wrinkle their nose and say, "no, I don't shop at places like that." Why not?!? It's sooo much cleaner than Wal-Mart, and I don't buy a bunch of junk I don't need. Win-win.
DH is sometimes somewhat of a brand-name junkie, so I try to wean him away replacing brand names with generics as much as possible. I understand, though, that there are some things that just aren't replaceable.
|Fri, 05-28-2010 - 10:55am
You know we are in style now! LOL Yes, I have been embarrassed when folks would make fun of our choices back in the day. But it ended up giving us a lot more freedom in the long run and dh was able to leave the military, unlike most of his peers. So do not be ashamed.
Isn't it funny how EVERYTHING is all about saving money now?
|Fri, 05-28-2010 - 12:20pm
I am not usually embarrassed about saving money and being frugal.
One exception comes to mind though, ds cub scout troop was having a cake auction. The boys baked and decorated cakes, and they were pretty good considering they were made by 7-10 year olds. Well I was prepared to spend maybe $25-30 on a cake. But those parents were bidding 75-100-150 per cake!! Needless to say I didn't buy a cake. I felt bad, but dh was laid off at the time, and I wasn't about to spend that much money on a cake...I know they were basically making a donation but sheesh. I am glad I didn't have to go to the cake auction this year.

I remember being embarrassed as a kid about my mom buying something that was store brand or generic. We weren't poor but we weren't rich and I think there was a lot more stigma when I was a kid (the 70's) about buying generic means you are poor. I also remember being horrified at the thought of shopping at K-Mart for clothes. There wasn't a Target or Wal-Mart, and I think we usually shopped at JCPenney for clothes.
My mom rarely bought the store brand because she was a master at coupons and rebates and watching sales, so she probably scored all that stuff at less than store brand cost. We had a store room (that I would love to have in my house!) where we kept the extra food and supplies. We also had a huge garden and we canned and froze a lot of food that we grew.
Funny story - my aunt is much like my mom in that they were both coupon clippers and rebaters. They would save UPC codes and box tops and the like and then send in rebates for cash or for coupons for free products. I used to help my mom and with this and thought it was fun. My aunt came to see us one day and she had a stack of coupons for free items that she accumulated through rebates and the like and used them all in one day. She had about 40 coupons and her cart was pretty full. She was nice enough to write in the cost of each item on the coupon for the clerk (this was probably around 1980 or so.) The staff at the grocery store were amazed by this and I had so much fun helping her find the products. Her bill was miniscule in that she only had to pay tax on a few items (in MN groceries are generally not taxed.)
Nowadays I buy the store brand or private label quite a bit and have no problem with it. I also think the quality of store brand products has improved. I'm willing to try different brands and if the store brand works just as good or tastes the same and is cheaper, why not? Like any product, there are some brands that aren't as good, but you never know until you try.
I don't often shop at thrift or secondhand stores for clothes. For my boys, I shop the clearance racks at Target and Kohls, and with the regular discounts via the credit card at Kohls(on which I've never carried a balance) I get their stuff pretty cheap and comparable to what I would spend at the thrift stores in my area. Most stuff so far has been able to be worn by both of them, so that stretches my money even further. DH usually gets any clothes he needs for birthday/xmas (and again from Kohls and often from the clearance racks) so I go for new. As for myself, I take good care of my clothes and don't wear really trendy stuff, so I keep my clothes for quite a while. Last week I wore a summer dress that I bought new for probably $30 in 2003. Still looks great, still fits great.

Narrative Theology
Today's video features Nancey Murphy. Please note the views expressed here are those of the author, not necessarily of The BioLogos Foundation. You can read more about what we believe here.
Today's video is courtesy of filmmaker Ryan Pettey, director/editor of Satellite Pictures.
When addressing the science and faith dialogue, one of the first things we must look at is how we interpret scripture. In today's video, Dr. Nancey Murphy, Professor of Christian Philosophy at Fuller Theological Seminary discusses the importance of stories as a tool for the ancient writers to teach theological truths, especially about the nature of creation (who created? what is the role of humanity in the creation?). It can sound frightening to some people to hear others speaking comfortably about the creation stories not being historical, but this is not the same as saying the stories are not true, only that they are not true on a certain level. They are theologically true, and if they are in the Bible, then they are inspired by God.
Murphy ends with an interesting challenge for those most fervently espousing the literalness of scripture. She indicates that, as important as the Old Testament is to Christian theology, Christian theologians start with the New Testament not the Old. Even though the Gospels are not the oldest books of the Bible, they are the ones that give us the most direct picture of who Jesus was, what he was teaching, and what he was doing. She suggests that Christians intent on protecting a literal interpretation of all scripture start with where Christian theology in general begins--the New Testament. They will quickly find themselves coming to the Sermon on the Mount. Start there, she says, then having worked toward a literal interpretation of that scripture, we'll be ready to move on to discuss how best to understand Genesis.

Also if a keyboard breaks it doesn't cost £40/50 to replace.
I certainly in an educational environment wouldn't go to a full wireless solution with only laptops
Nice article but you didn't mention the costs involved in providing a wireless infrastructure. (Assuming they want internet access) and the difficulties of connecting 16 - 32 laptops all at once. I know wireless is improving but there is still a cost for the better kit and I think the bandwidth sharing problem will be around for a long time yet, especially for the more cash strapped primaries out there.
Also if a keyboard breaks it doesn't cost £40/50 to replace.
I certainly in an educational environment wouldn't go to a full wireless solution with only laptops
The ratio of broken laptops to broken desktops here must be around 10:1, I've got a pile of 5 laptops on my technicians desk waiting to be fixed, and I hate them, staff are now wary of laptops, where as the 4 year old desktops are going fine, and will be much improved after the RAM upgrade I'm planning over half term. So for £10 per desktop, they'll keep going for another 2 years or so, where as I've got to start looking at replacement screens, batteries, battery packs, keyboards and motherboards for the laptops which have been broken, misused or worn out.
This is not to mention the number of times students have accidentally turned off the wireless and so can't login or access the internet. Plus students have lost respect for laptops, swinging them about, carrying them up and down stairs, holding them in one hand and all manner of things which make me wince.
This isn't to say laptops don't have their place, I think they're brilliant for Science labs, and for topping up ICT Suites for Managed Coursework, or if they're aren't quite enough PCs to go around, but I would never replace an ICT Suite with a "mobile solution" unless I knew the teacher was brilliant at managing the classroom, the wireless was flawless and the desks and trolley were based on RM's wildcharge technology.
To some extent I didn't go into the classroom management side of things as this, in my experience, is far better in primary than secondary schools ... and whilst I would love to say that it is a given, I am also presuming that there is an understanding that there is an awareness with the teachers that they will have to make sure more care is taken ... and the examples given are only a few to show this ... but they are based on real numbers in real schools.
I also have to say a big thank you to those members who have shared information with me via PM, on tweeter, by email or when meeting F2F as this has contributed to the recent blog posts ... I don't name folk as they generally don't want to be, but you know who you are.
I face losing my ICT Suite in the near future as we've run out of rooms in the school. Being fee-paying the extra income from nums on seats should pay for the laptops and more. I know why we need to lose the Suite, but I have misgivings.
I'll give you the teacher's perspective (or at least mine, as an ex teacher).
As a science teacher I would fill out my apparatus requisition sheet for the following week (magnets, iron filings, microscopes blah blah) and I could just tick a box to order a trolley load of laptops. easy peasy. But, If I wanted to use an ICT room, I had to go to the technology department to book it, then traipse my class down there on the day (because I'd forgotten to tell them of the room change the previous lesson,duh). So, as far as I was concerned the laptop trolley was the easier option. Unfortunately, inevitably, 1/4 of the machines didn't work, another 1/4 had flat batteries, half of the rest (another quarter, for those keeping up) took three weeks to boot up (I exaggerate, only 40 minutes) and most of the rest either wouldn't receive a signal or had their setting changed by some little herbert in another lesson.
Soooo, although booking the IT suite was less convenient, at least the machines worked and we got some work done!
In the situation here (primary) where the head wants to get rid of the suite, staff dont, going to get Ruckus network in summer but reading between the lines if it proves ok he wants to get rid of the suite and get more netbooks and some pads. Not my preference and i teach the majority of the ict curriculum! Open to getting pads/netbooks but not at cost of a suite that just works, no ifs or buts. Suppose in the end i'll just do as i'm told. Finishing with one of my schools in the summer and the above was just one of the reasons, my choice to leave not pushed.

(Reposted from a message board reply, and modified slightly for this blog post.)
When we think about controlling insulin, we usually think of diabetics. How many of us actually know what insulin does? I didn't!
I hover around 130 pounds and 33% body fat. While I am healthy, this is more body fat than I want. So I started doing research. I started studying bodybuilders, how they lose fat before a competition. What I found is fat loss really IS 80% nutrition and 20% exercise! While I eat a healthier diet than most Americans, rich with veggies and fruit, the nutrition component that I seem to be struggling with is managing insulin. Note that I am not diabetic, nor do I have high blood pressure. However, managing insulin seems to be key to keeping the fat burn switch turned on. This is just more important for diabetics because their cells no longer respond properly to insulin.
The nutrition is a little more than just calories in/calories out. For example, you can't run a car with just gasoline. You also need oil and water. All three don't serve the same purpose, are all used differently by the car, and are all essential.
So that's what carbs/protein/fat are. (Not exactly the same as the car analogy. For example, the body can convert one type to another, to some degree. I'm just simplifying it for this example.) Body fat is stored glucose. If we have excess body fat, then we want to encourage our bodies to use more fat. So you should eat less carbs. Note that does NOT mean NO carbs, just FEWER carbs. Ratios of about 40/30/30 are ideal for fat loss according to the research I've done. We HAVE to have SOME carbs from our meals every day because our brain, heart and liver won't function on the type that body fat gets converted to. But the idea is to eat fewer so the body has to get the rest of the energy from stored body fat.
Also, I've found the reason why we are told to avoid refined sugars and processed carbs. It's not just the excess calories. There's a chemical response. When we eat something like a donut, our pancreas produces insulin in reaction to the sucrose and glucose. When insulin is present, the body switches fat burn off. The body already has enough glucose from the food, it doesn't need any more from stored fat. Insulin also turns ON your fat storage mechanism. If you have more glucose than your body needs, the excess gets stored. Refined sugars and processed carbs causes this to happen really fast. Whole grains take longer to digest, so this happens slower. While fruits have sugars, there's a lot less fructose in fruit than sucrose/glucose in a donut, plus it has fiber. Basically, if you want to lose fat, you need to control your insulin.
How to do that?
- Exercise. Exercise helps controls blood sugar and insulin.
- Eat more veggies. Veggies do not trigger insulin. Veggies are carbs, but because we're omnivores, not true herbivores, we don't convert vegetable carbs efficiently.
- Get plenty of protein. Protein builds and repairs tissue.
- Don't avoid carbs. Don't eat too many.
Now I'm not a dietitian, so I might have got a few things wrong and I'm still learning, but from my research, this seems to be why I'm having trouble. I've modified my diet to eat at or near 40/30/30 carb/fat/protein, whole grains, small starch portions, and no sugars other than fructose. So far, it seems to be working. I'm liking what I'm seeing enough to keep at it.
Like with most weeks, last week was a mix of progress and not quite hitting the mark. That's ok. As a recovering perfectionist, I've learned that you don't have to hit all your targets in order to be succeeding. One week is a small part of the big picture.
That said, I can't believe it's week three of the new year already!
- Did three days of workout videos, counting as toning/strength training and low impact aerobics. Definitely felt the burn, and afterburn for days!
- One day at the gym for cardio.
- Week two skiing class completed. Successfully skied down a blue run!
Areas for Improvement:
- Increase HIIT cardio days. Need 2-3 days of cardio at the gym. My gym schedule is thrown a little off track because we are moving next weekend and I am packing after work.
- Managed to eat pretty close to 40/30/30 ranges. Most days about 45/20/35. Only 1 day 60/20/20. Not sure it is making a difference, but I'll keep trying it.
- Lost one inch off the hips.
- Successfully took salad and fruit to work for lunch and snacks. Back in the habit!
Areas for Improvement:
- Working on eating less sugar and carbs. Trying not to stimulate too much insulin production while trying to burn fat. Attempting to stay around 40% carbs.
- Average calorie consumption for this week was about 1700 calories. A bit on the high side. I did strength training 3x this week, so hopefully the higher calories will stimulate muscle strength. I lost an inch off my hips, but the evidence is circumstantial. I'm guessing the truth is the effect is zero sum. Goal for week three is now to drop to lower end of calorie range and stimulate fat burn.
- Still drinking too much wine. I've appealed to the boyfriend that instead of drinking a cheap glass of wine every night from a $5 bottle, to save the money and buy one nice $15-20 bottle for the week. He's not committed yet, but I'll keep working on it.
Yesterday was my second ski lesson. The day didn't start off well. Somehow, the alarm clock was turned off, so I didn't get up when I should have. The SO claims he didn't do it. The cat says she's innocent. It's an unsolved mystery.
I scrambled around getting my stuff together, and ran out the door with ski equipment in tow. Fortunately, I got there in time. Early, even.
Ski conditions were much better than the previous week. It wasn't pristine powder, but it was soft. My skiis turned when I told them to. We weren't ice skating.
We worked on side slipping and hockey stops on the easy slopes. The lines were short, so we were able to get a decent number of practice turns in. Snoqualmie certainly isn't a world class ski resort though - the runs are so short.
For our final run, we went on the Triple 60 lift - the blue/black run. We didn't go down the face of Triple 60, though, which is the "black" part. We did a short cross country trip over to a blue. I was able to do it! Yay! My instructor is pretty much a 'sink or swim' kind of guy. Practicing the slide slipping and edging helped, though. I suppose I felt a little more confident that I could get instruction if I got in trouble and wouldn't have to commando crawl again. It was great! I felt a lot more confident!
We got to the bottom and called it a day. I would have stayed to practice more, but since I had to rush out in the morning, I didn't get a decent breakfast and was running out of fuel. My energy level was low, and my tummy growling. I didn't want to pay for resort food at resort prices, so I headed towards home. I stopped and had another Chipotle steak fajita bowl before making it home, exhausted.
I came home and adjusted my boots so they fit a little looser. They are a bit tight on the calves. I also bought a pair of thinner socks from REI. The conditions at Snoqualmie are not very cold, more spring-like.
Two years ago, I went to the dentist for the first time in like 10 years. My heart almost dropped out of my chest when she said I had early stages of periodontal disease and some bone loss. However, in early stages, it is a reversible condition with proper care.
We scheduled four deep cleaning sessions. Four different hygienists took shifts scraping hardened tartar off my teeth. I had two fillings replaced. It was painful and expensive with no dental insurance.
I imagined being toothless, with dentures, and unable to eat apples at the age of 35. Predisposition to gum disease is passed down to me in my genes. My body chemistry builds more plague and tartar than average. It was enough to scare me. While I was brushing the recommended amount by the dental association, years of not visiting the dentist left me with large build up of tartar that probably wouldn't happen with most people doing the same thing.
I started brushing three times per day and using mouth rinse. My visits to the dentist have progressively got better and better reports. Today, my hygienist said my gum health is looking great. Once you have bone loss in your teeth, you can't ever get it back, however, healthy gums will fill the gaps. She says we only have to see each other twice a year instead of three times per year! Yay! I'll get to keep my teeth and eat apples!
I was inspired to write this because some message board posts and blogs I've read recently really shocked me how some people speak to themselves. I can't imagine anyone would say these things to another person, yet they say it to themselves. It is truly heartbreaking.
Would you ever say this to your best friend?
"You're fat and lazy. You shouldn't have eaten that cookie. Why didn't you work out? I hate your thighs. Your butt is huge. You'll never lose the weight, so why even try?"
So why say it to ourselves? Why do we talk to ourselves this way? Isn't what we usually say:
"I'm fat and lazy. I shouldn't have eaten that cookie. Why didn't I work out today? I hate my thighs. My butt is huge. I'll never lose the weight, so why even try?"
Next time you have a down day, I challenge you to speak to yourself as though you were your best friend. What would you say? Imagine you were saying your thoughts to your best friend. What would your reaction be if you were him or her?

SEI Investments Company's CEO Discusses Q2 2012 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
So, let me start with the second quarter 2012. Second quarter earnings decreased by 8% from a year ago and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of $0.28 represents a 3% decrease from the $0.29 reported for the second quarter of 2011. We also reported a 1% increase in revenue during the second quarter of 2012 versus the second quarter of 2011.
Now, second quarter revenues were also up 1% over first quarter 2011 revenues. During second quarter of 2012, the SIVs had little effect on earnings. In addition, during second quarter 2012, our end of quarter non-cash asset balances under management decreased by $5.6 billion. Of that, SEI's assets under management increased slightly by $100 million during the quarter, while LSV's assets under management fell by $5.7 billion.
Now finally, during the second quarter 2012, we repurchased 2.3 million shares of SEI stock at an average price of just under $19 per share. Now that translates to over $42.2 million of stock repurchases during the quarter.
Net new recurring revenue sales remained strong. We generated over $20.3 million of net new sales events, of which $15.7 million will be recurring revenues. All segments posted good sales quarters and each of the segment heads will address their sales activity.Now we are continuing our investment in GWP and its operational infrastructure that are so important to our future. Now during the first quarter we capitalized approximately $8.9 million of the Global Wealth Platform development and amortized approximately $7.4 million of previously capitalized development. While we are increasingly encouraged with our long-term prospects with the rollout of GWP, we're also working hard to improve the profitability of our Bank segment. You'll notice the costs control measures that we had implemented over the past few quarters are showing improvements in the level of many of our costs.

Carters Chord Gets Wild Together With New Music Bands New Six-Song EP Streets May 24th
Nashville, TN April 4, 2011 -- After spending the better part of a year immersed in writing and recording, Carters Chord will release a new six song EP on May 24, 2011. Titled Wild Together, this collection of songs reflects the creative growth of the band not only as writers and musicians, but also in finding their voice.
Carters Chord is sisters Becky, Emily and Joanna Robertson, whose parents Carter and Barny Robertson toured and recorded with Waylon Jennings during the height of the legendary Outlaw movement.
We have been surrounded by music and a lot of creative people our entire lives, notes group member Joanna Robertson. Growing up in California and Nashville, our influences are an interesting mix, but the common thread has always been bands that have a real organic sound, and of course great harmonies.
Adds sister Emily, We really wanted this music to be a better reflection of who we are as recording artists. We spent a lot of time focusing on the writing part, and in creating the kind of sound that best represents us.
Theres some real attitude on this recording, Becky says. When you grow up with parents who were a part of the Outlaw movement, you really cant help that.
There is attitude (I Can Break Hearts Too, Simple Little Screwed Up Life), and of course the music on this new offering is drenched in beautiful harmonies, the kind only siblings can create. The lead single, A Little Less Comfortable, as well as the title track, each showcase that sound perfectly.
Wild Together is the sound of a group hitting its stride. Its the organic beauty of Emmylou Harris, the harmonies of Fleetwood Mac and the attitude of Waylon, Willie, the Black Crowes, Miranda Lambert and all the boys and girls who through their music strove to make us all a little less comfortable.

(Updates index levels in fifth paragraph.)
Nov. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Taiwan's regulators urged insurers to stop lending securities to short sellers, seeking to bolster equities after the benchmark Taiex Index slumped the most among Asian benchmark gauges this year.
Officials called insurance companies yesterday to remind them such actions may result in the reduction of value of their own stocks, said Lee Jih-Chu, a spokeswoman at the Financial Supervisory Commission, in a phone interview from Taipei today. She denied a Commercial Times report that the regulator had banned four state funds and insurers from securities lending.
"Taiwan is a retail-dominated market, so we hope foreigners won't use the advantage they have to do things that will be unfair to other investors amid this uncertain market environment," Lee said. "We told the insurers, look, you may gain some fees from lending but it will reduce the overall value of shares. You have to evaluate the cost effectiveness."
The FSC is trying to stop investors from profiting from declines in markets at a time when surging borrowing costs in the euro region are stoking concern the region's debt crisis will derail global economic growth. Short sales are when investors bet on declines in securities by borrowing stock to sell on the expectation they can be purchased at a lower price.
More than $4 trillion has been erased from the value of equities worldwide this month as the MSCI All-Country World Index slumped 10 percent. Taiwan's Taiex index lost 11 percent, while the MSCI Emerging Markets Index sank 12 percent. The Taiex index lost 1.1 percent as of 11:47 a.m. local time, set for the lowest close since Aug. 27, 2009.
Maximum Shorts
Italian and Spanish financial-market regulators extended in September temporary bans on short selling of financial shares that were introduced the previous month in a bid to stem market volatility. European Union lawmakers backed a proposed short- selling law on Nov. 15 that paves the way for an optional ban on naked credit-default swaps tied to sovereign debt.
Taiwan amended rules to cap the daily maximum short selling of borrowed stocks to 20 percent of the average transaction volume of the past 30 trading days, from a 3 percent limit of outstanding shares per stock, the FSC said in a statement on its website on Nov. 21.
Lee denied the Commercial Times report, saying the regulator respected "the operation of the market mechanism," Lee said. She said the FSC isn't in charge of state funds and wasn't in a position to advise them.
"Foreign investors have been short-selling a lot in Taiwan, so the FSC's moral persuasion is a bid to improve the market," said Parker Wu, a fund manager at the Agriculture Bank of Taiwan, who helps oversee the equivalent of $98 million.
Overseas investors sold $10.5 billion Taiwan stocks this year as of yesterday, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Funds investing in developing-nation stocks withdrew $2.7 billion in the week ended Nov. 23, Citigroup Inc. analysts led by Markus Rosgen wrote in a report today, citing data compiled by EPFR Global.
