Interesting quote from Everett Aaberg, author of Muscle Mechanics. It may be an underlooked point because, well, the conventional advice is to terminate set when ROM decreases. Or, perhaps more frequently, the trainee begins to use more and more body english to maintain ROM. Yesterday I experimented with the concept. Did a set of pullups. Tempo was deliberate, probably three seconds up, three seconds down. Slow as my reps were, I found that I wasn't going to reach chin level, at top, on my sixth rep. So, rather than using any body english, I simply pulled as high as I could (and still maintain tension in the lats). By rep 11 or 12 I was barely able to rise inches from the bottom position. I terminated the set when I could no longer move period. And I suppose that, had I wanted to, I could have continued to hang ... until I couldn't. My finding was that, as ROM diminished, even markedly so, I found that I was able to maintain constant tension on the relevant muscles BECAUSE I allowed ROM to decrease. Now, sure, with this kind of intensity, now we're talking HIT, one set will do ya. But perhaps there is a middle ground that allows for more subtle decreases in ROM AS ONE ACHIEVES A PREDETERMINED REPS GOAL. I suspect that this is what bodybuilders do, as they seem to be the leading experts on the sort of 'mind-muscle connection' required to maintain muscle tension, which is a priority for them.
I am not totally sure if this is relevant to your discovery but I do know that joints need to be strongest/withstand the greatest amount of tension at the midrange of the ROM...for instance with bicep curls/elbow flexion....the joint can tolerate resistance most efficiently at roughly 90 degrees of bending (midrange)....when you have your elbow straightened, the starting position when you start to curl the weight is the toughest (at least for me it is)...and then will the elbow is fully bent/flexed, the biceps becomes more or less actively insufficient...so it might be a good idea to see if you get more strength gains only bending the elbow to 90 degrees then lowering the weight, instead of going through full flexion..because from 90 degrees to end range you won't be achieving much gains IMO...
This is a very relevant point. I have already surmised that ROM is a topic which cries out for clarification. When we say ROM, what do we mean ? Do we mean move the weight as far as we can ? Do we mean move the joint as far as it wants to go ? Do we mean (and here's what you're hinting at) as far as the muscle NEEDS to be moved to induce strength, hypertrophy, etc. ? Back to pullups, I do agree that if hypertrophy is the chief concern, I see no need to get the chin to the bar. As far as I'm concerned, that's just a contrivance. Of further interest, Aaberg recommends, as you do, pulling only until upper arms are parallel to floor, maybe a little more. But muscle tension is paramount. It does so happen that I am able to maintain lat tension, all the way up, for at least a few reps. But again the conventional advice would have me either terminating the set at that point or kipping a bit to get another rep or two. No consideration is given for a calculated decrease in ROM.
This has got me thinking that both the heave-ho camp and the tempo-mongers are a little off. Why not just proceed, slowly enough to eliminate undue momentum, and simply decrease ROM as needed ?

DH and I stopped by my cabinet maker's shop this morning, and he gave us a tour of the progress so far. All the construction is complete; the doors and drawer fronts are done. They were staining the last box when we arrived, and are about 75% with finishing. When that's done, hardware installation begins. It was so cool to see my sketches come to life! Everything looks beautiful. DH just laughed when I had to walk around and look at every single piece - Dan the Cabinet Man said he wasn't surprised - he's gotten to know me pretty well! Installation starts next Wednesday - I can hardly wait! The Cambria fabricator is on standby, and Dan will schedule templating with him as soon as he knows when the base cabinets are will be in place. A week from today I should have some progress photos for you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
So exciting! It is unreal to see your sketches come to life, isn't it? My DH was surprised by the little details, and the way everything looked together, but for me, it looked exactly as I had envisioned it in my head. We had our counters templated last friday, and install will be on tuesday. Then I will really get to see my vision completed! Can't wait to see yours :) |
So exciting! Wow- almost like an adoption! I have been following your progress and can't wait to see your reveal. |

I am so excited for you! |

I didn't even think of bringing my camera until it was too late. Don't think I haven't been kicking myself all day! Quartz guy will template on Friday. I'm going out of town in the morning, so I'm leaving DH in charge. I'll leave him a list of questions - including install date. |

Last month, Denver Civic managers asked Edge Gallery -- not one of the city's more staid artistic venues -- to put together a show that would complement a performance of the "ancient Australian art of genital origami." And Edge did, hanging an exhibit that included a photograph by John Davenport of two men sucking face in the pose of Rodin's "The Kiss" and a piece by Susan Berkley showing an image of the Twin Towers being hit.
But before the first Puppetry ticket-holder could see a penis being turned into the Eiffel Tower, the Denver Civic asked Davenport to take down his "Variation on a Theme of Rodin #2" and to move Berkley's piece from the front entrance. Davenport didn't have the proper tools to reinstall Berkley's photo, though, so he carted that piece home as well.
"When we asked Edge Gallery, we were looking for pieces that coincide with the show," explains Denver Civic spokeswoman Katherine Rosin, who, along with executive director Jay Cardwell, is based in New York. "We love every piece; in fact, I'm intending to buy one. But we felt because it was two men kissing, it confused the content of the show. Because it's a comedy show, and because some of us are New Yorkers, we felt that Susan's was a very traumatic piece for people to see as they walked into the theater. We didn't want the piece taken down or removed; we just didn't want it to be the last piece they see before they walk into a comedy."
Edge doesn't see anything funny about the situation. Although the rest of the show is still up, gallery members don't understand why Denver Civic would ask Edge to present a show if it didn't want something edgy.
"The director told John that we could show anything we wanted," says Edge co-vice president Sara-Lou Klein McKlayer. "He told him, 'The more controversial, the better.' So we did, and we hung the show, and it was beautiful. John's piece was just beautiful. There's no genitalia showing. If it were two men beating each other up or boxing, it would be okay. It's ridiculous that we were censored and it's a theater."
In other words, they got dicked.
Corporeal punishment: Three years ago, John Reidy, the man behind the seminal Denver zine known as The Hooligan, declared, "People will always want to sit in a coffee shop and read a hard copy of a local mag. Anyone who sits in a coffee shop with a laptop is a douche bag."
But now caffeine fiends have just one more chance to read The Hooligan at their neighborhood java joint without looking like a feminine-hygiene product. This week, Reidy is unleashing a special tenth-anniversary issue of his creation, and he swears it'll be the last one that people can hold in their hands. After that, his caustic wisdom will be restricted to www.thehooligan.com.
Reidy's printing only 500 copies of his last hurrah, but he doubts they'll turn into collector's items. "I don't think anyone would pay anything for something like that," he says. "I'll check eBay in a couple of years and get back to you."
But he may find himself surprised by the demand. After all, The Hooligan has served as a butcher shop for Denver's sacred cows since 1993, and among Reidy's prime cuts was a rant about the city's former mayor titled "Wellington Webb is a Dick." He's not about to let current boss John Hickenlooper off any lighter. "I'm calling out our new mayor, because since he took office, I've gotten more tickets than ever, and it's still too damn expensive to park downtown," Reidy says. "He got elected on that simple promise, right? Well, he's going to hear about it. The honeymoon's over, baby."
Reidy hasn't given up on paper entirely, though. He says he's writing a "self-help book for road-ragers" complete with "simple tips and philosophy on how better driving makes a better society." Hmmm. Could our town's most notorious hooligan be mellowing? Reidy concedes that the anniversary edition's tone "might be a little more nostalgic -- sappy reminiscing on ten years of talking shit." But he also plans to grouse about "how Denver does a lot of stuff half-assed, and The Hooligan was really half-assed."
Clearly, they were made for each other.
Dead-letter day: It may be all Kobe Bryant all the time these days, but not even a decade ago, the death of JonBenét Ramsey was being proclaimed the crime of the century. (Forget Farice King, this week's cover girl.) And now there's a new twist to Colorado's most infamous unsolved mystery.
Bored office workers, creative college students and even uninspired felons can craft their own crime-scene evidence using a new, free-to-download font based on the ransom note discovered in the Ramseys' Boulder home on December 26, 1996. Much like the source of the original handwriting -- never officially pegged to anyone, although fingers were pointed at everyone from JonBenét's mom, Patsy, to her father's Navy connections at the Subic Bay training center in the Philippines -- the creator of the ransom-note font is unknown. But he or she is certainly accommodating.

Publications and Research
A new policy brief offers recommendations for early childhood mathematics education (ECME).
This policy brief from NIEER examines the role of preschool education in regard to problem behaviors in young children.
Findings from a study appearing in Science, the journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), show that the play-based Tools of the Mind curriculum can improve cognitive control (executive function) in preschool-age children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
The way we teach science fails to recognize that "Children are capable of abstract reasoning and theory building from very early ages" writes Rutgers University science education professor Richard A. Duschl in a compelling article in the November/December 2007 issue of Principal, a magazine published by the National Association of Elementary School Principals.
NIEER Director Steve Barnett presents the impacts of a quality early education at New Hampshire's 2007 Legislative Forum, October 11, 2007.

Based on our own personal experiences, we can all admit that no couple gets along 100% of the time. In fact, it's completely normal to have differing opinions and for said opinions to create conflict. However, how much fighting is too much fighting? Is there a way to tell whether the arguments are covering up a bigger issue? When two people are so passionate about their relationship and each other, it only makes sense that they're willing to duke it out to get their point across. The problem lies in not knowing how to differentiate between a lover's spat and a full out war.

Campbeltown, Scotland. Old Tom Morris, 1879; J. H. Taylor, 1914; Sir Guy Campbell, c. 1946. Machrihanish is the one great Scottish links that has stayed under the radar of golfers visiting from overseas. Thanks to its remote location at the southern end of the Mull of Kintyre, it's just too far off the beaten path for most people to venture there. Its members log perhaps ten thousand rounds per year, and at that level of play, nature does a fine job of sorting out good golf shots from bad. The fairways and greens are well-trafficked enough to present a fast surface without becoming compacted. The areas of the rough that get a fair amount of play from the golfers' most common misses are thinned out by foot traffic, so the lies are not too bad. But if a good player hits way off-line past where the average player would normally go, he will find himself in very thick grass with a difficult shot—if he finds his ball at all.
Most of the links courses in the United Kingdom are greener, softer and more manicured than when I first saw them twenty-five years ago, not just because they are now catering to overseas visitors, but also because the turf has to be maintained differently to withstand all the traffic. Machrihanish has not changed one bit, and I hope it never does. 011-44/1586-810-277, machgolf.com
Royal Dornoch
Dornoch, Scotland. Old Tom Morris, 1886; Donald Ross, c. 1895; John Sutherland, 1890-1910. Not all links are fortunate enough to have eighteen holes among the dunes. For many, there isn't enough acreage of the right stuff, and the course must include several holes on less than ideal ground. Dornoch, the boyhood home of Donald Ross, is one of the few Scottish links to turn the situation to its advantage. Just after the Second World War, the club split the course that Ross had known to form two separate eighteens, extending the golf at each end. The course used to turn back toward the clubhouse after today's par-three sixth hole, but building the par-four seventh and half of the par-four eighth up on the bluff away from the dunes enabled the club to add the ninth, tenth and eleventh holes coming back in along the narrower strip of links at the base of the bluff, and that lends today's championship course its unique visual character. 011-44/1862-810-219, royaldornoch.com
Royal West Norfolk
Brancaster, England. Horace Hutchinson, 1892. All coastal links must deal with wind and water erosion, but today the most threatened of them is Royal West Norfolk Golf Club (aka Brancaster), built on a narrow strip of dunes three hours northeast of London. The higher tides along this coastline surround the golf course, so the access road from the town across the marsh is cut off for three hours at a time—conveniently, just long enough to play eighteen holes. The wind erosion is so strong that nearly all the bunkers are banked up with railroad ties to prevent the sand from overtaking the greens—the whole course looks like it was built by a demented uncle of Pete Dye. Sadly, if sea levels continue their slow rise, Brancaster will probably be the first great links to be lost back to the sea, and any who have played it will mourn its loss. 011-44/1485-210-223
Royal North Devon
Westward Ho!, England. Old Tom Morris, 1864. It was General Moncrieffe of St. Andrews, upon visiting the town of Westward Ho! in 1863, who coined the phrase, "Providence obviously designed this for a golf links," to be used by seven generations of golf course architects thereafter. First-time visitors to Royal North Devon may initially struggle to see what the general had in mind. The ground near the clubhouse is the flattest stretch of linksland possible, and the dunes along the shore scarcely seem tall enough to keep the Atlantic from flooding the course on a windy day. Set entirely on common land, horses, cattle and sheep graze in such profusion that sometimes it seems impossible to miss them all with your tee shot. Yet with a minimum of bunkers and a four-hole intervention by the spiky great sea rushes at the start of the back nine, Westward Ho! remains perhaps the ultimate reminder of how a simple game can be so much tougher than it looks. 011-44/1237-477-598, royalnorthdevongolfclub.co.uk

We have snow and mixed precipitation forecast for tonight. Should I pick the daffodils that are already in bloom? I'm worried that the snow will freeze and kill the flowers.Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
IME the freeze won't bother them as much as the weight of heavy spring snow breaking stems. I'd pick at least some of them to enjoy in the house. |
- Posted by gardenweed_z6a 6a CT (My Page) on Sat, Mar 31, 12 at 10:11
There are 20-25 clumps of daffodils growing here that someone planted decades ago. Last winter snowfall was a record-breaking 8 ft. and the weather didn't warm up until the end of May. The daffs may have bloomed under the snow but since I couldn't see them, I can't be sure. They're up again this year and blooming just as they have every year I've lived here. Definitely pick some to enjoy in the house but I wouldn't worry about the ones you leave right where they are. |
Thanks, the snow missed us, Yea! Daffs still blooming away! |

Hip hop to the happening hues of cosmopolitan carnations and street-smart alstromerias - their pastel shades are the ultimate antidote to the cold grey concrete of the big, bad city.

One of the unique feature sets of the Surface Pro is the inclusion of an active digitizer and a stylus to accompany it. If you've purchased a Windows RT based device such as the Surface RT, or the Vivo Tab, you are out of luck if you want to use an active digitizer based stylus. However there are alternatives and devices such as the iPad have popularized capacitive based styli. The general performance of such capacitive stlyli is akin to writing with a Crayon on your Surface's screen, however it works for writing large text or making drawings. Any fine detail you might want to write in or draw will be difficult at best with the generic capacitive styli. The stylus used in the video is a Amazon.com stylus and there are alternatives that supposedly offer better performance however. One such Stylus is the Adonit Jot Pro which we will be testing shortly.
Please check out the review of the Jot Pro for a better stylus experience.

MANUFACTURER: Warner-Lambert Co
Fits all double edge razors
A Classic in Every Sense Introduced in the United States in the late 1950's Wilkinson Sword's original stainless steel double edge blade became an immediate and lasting success because of its fine edge. Today's Classic Double Edge blade retains the original precision-honed Wilkinson Sword edge, but has been improved by Wilkinson's famous triple coating process of chromium to resist corrosion, ceramic for added durability, and PTFE for less irritation.
The result is a blade that maintains its edge even longer than stainless steel for incredibly smooth, close, and comfortable double edge shaves. Classic Double Edge blades fit all standard double edge razors.
