What's harder than quitting? Doing it alone.
Quitting smoking is one of the hardest things many of us have ever done. If only it were as easy as just "saying no." If only tobacco products weren't so overwhelmingly addictive.
But they are, and quitting alone is extraordinarily hard for most people.
There are programs, treatments and medications that can help. But none of these are cheap and many smokers can't afford the cost of a quality program that will help them become nonsmokers for good. That's why we're here.

Private yachts also face threat of piracy
Posted onNewspapers all over the world are reporting about the private yacht that was captured by Somali pirates and then rescued by French Special Forces last week.
Florent Lemacon, the skipper of the yacht, was killed along with two Somali pirates when French forces mounted a raid on the hijacked yacht in the Indian Ocean last Friday, according to a report in The Independent. The story serves as a reminder that it's not just commercial ships at risk from the increasingly brazen Somali pirates.
Other stories on the hijacking and rescue of the private yacht can be found at YachtPals.com and The Daily Mail.

Customers have their say
Blind and partially sighted people are the best source of knowledge about the lives of our customers.
We facilitate ongoing consultation with blind and partially sighted people through dedicated panels. This page gives information about these customer panels and how those involved have contributed their expertise to influence the design of products and services for the benefit of all blind and partially sighted people.
Inside view
The Inside View panel focuses on issues of accessing mainstream media and technology. Panel members have been involved in several projects targeted at creating a step change in the reality of fully accessible services. Since the panel was established in 2010, Inside View has discussed a wide range of topics including the accessibility of mobile phones and eBooks, as well as testing Windows 8. Inside View has secured:
- the inclusion of a free text enlarger and contrast solver for BlackBerry handsets
- the inclusion of a screen reader for mobile phones that might also be free
- changes to Amazon's Kindle to make it more accessible
- British Midland making the drop down menu feature on their website accessible.
Inside View members are very encouraged by these successes and eager to engage on a broader range of topics.
Independence Matters
Independence Matters is a panel for blind and partially sighted people over 50. The panel provides insight on a whole range of issues and has recently contributed to the successful Silver Dreams funding bid and helped shape RNIB's web resources for older people. From April 2014, the panel will also steer the work of RNIB's Older People team by contributing to and helping to shape projects aimed at improving life for blind and partially sighted older people.
Phone Watch
Phone Watch aims to give blind and partially sighted people the opportunity to engage directly with manufacturers and software developers from across the mobile industry. Industry experts are invited to attend and speak about the latest developments in mobile technology and forthcoming innovations in mobile accessibility. Phone Watch panel members have a highly interactive, hands on experience with the latest mobile devices and accessibility software and can immediately give feedback to industry experts so that more blind and partially sighted people will be able to confidently use mobile technology.
Phone Watch is one way of allowing us to keep abreast of users' needs, enabling us to keep a finger on the pulse of current consumer experiences and gather important feedback for future developments.
Since the sessions are highly interactive, participants exchange lots of ideas with one another. We will work to document this information to share with other blind and partially sighted people.
Engagement with Young people
Listening to young blind and partially sighted people is helping us to build up our understanding of the issues they face, to learn about what is important to them and what they want from us.
This engagement has enabled us to:
- shape the research we do with young people
- influence Action for Blind People's services for Young people
- develop our plans for transition services for young people across education, independence and employment support
- work with young people on campaigns issues
- inform "Seeing it my way" - an initiative to ensure that every blind and partially sighted person has access to the same range of information and support.
We are working to establish a Young People's Forum to give young blind and partially sighted people a more formal route to raise the issues that matter most to them and to influence the future direction of our work.
Consumer View panel
Launched in January 2014, Consumer View is a new consultation panel dedicated to engaging directly with service providers to make the services and products they provide accessible to blind and partially sighted people. The panel has experienced early success by engaging with Dolphin Computer Access Ltd.

How would I make this?? I am pretty bad at painting and drawing so I don't think I could make this cake using those techniques. Is there another way to paint on a cake that people who aren't good with drawing and painting (like myself) could use? (I'm assuming the paint on this cake is food coloring?)
Tips would be appreciated! (Disclaimer: got this picture from Pinterest)

Conservation Services
Conservation Support
SANParks Conservation staff are active across all 19 of our South African National Parks (SANParks).
In keeping with the SANParks mission, Conservation Services is responsible for conservation research, guided by an adaptive management framework and aimed at the maintenance of biodiversity and the preservation of wilderness qualities and cultural resources. As a result, environmental monitoring and research are conducted within each Park to ensure management actions are based on research outcomes.
To ensure data accuracy and to standardize the data collection process, a hand-held computer application - CyberTracker - s customised for each of our 22 Parks. This icon-based system allows both literate as well as non-literate field workers to record observations with latitude and longitude co-ordinates using a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) device with an integrated Global Positioning System (GSP). In many cases SANParks rangers are the eyes and ears of conservation, conducting daily field patrols in all Parks. They are therefore equipped with CyberTracker and while on patrol, they map observations of animals; rare plants; poaching activities; surface water; disease outbreaks; invasive species; cultural and historical and more.
The SANParks Conservation Support Project, with the help of our SANParks supporters from all over the world (list of project supporters to date), has helped better equip our ranger with Pocket PCs with integrated GPS, laptop computers, mountain bikes, camo-nets, multi-tools, water bottles, backpacks, spotlights, gas cylinders, camping utensils, and binoculars. The pictures below represent a collective THANK YOU from all SANParks rangers, field rangers and conservation services staff who have benefited from your generosity.
So far, the Parks that have benefited are:
- Addo Elephant National Park: (Section Ranger: Riaan Nel)
- Karoo National Park: (Section Ranger: Johan de Klerk)
- Mokala National Park: (Section and Field Rangers)
- Kruger National Park: (Satara Field Rangers)
- Tankwa-Karoo National Park: (from left to right: Lofty Baadjies, Wallace Nasson, Garret de Vries)

After Meghann's Bridal Shower over the weekend, I have been asked by a few people about what we served in regards to the food. Look no further – here is everything that we served at the party!!
I was browsing on Pinterest a few weeks ago for ideas, and I found this amazing recipe for Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Bites. I altered the recipe a little bit, based on what I had on hand in my house. I added an extra egg, substituted parmesan cheese for mozzarella, left out the onions, and used a full size cupcake pan rather than a mini one. I would have stuck to the full recipe, but I overlooked it a bit while shopping. Woops! It still turned out amazing! This recipe was definitely a crowd pleaser. I think it might just become my staple party appetizer – it was that good!
Next up, I made a vegan salad, packed with lots of goodies. The great part about this recipe, is that you can throw just about any veggie in, and it will work. I used what I had in the fridge and just packed it in the salad.

I knew I wanted a sweet dish as well, but not too dessert like, so I checked out Driscoll's website! I was sent a few coupons for Driscoll's berries, so why not check out their tried and true ways to use what they know best! I picked the Raspberry Ricotta Dip, and just made 2 small adjustments. Instead of using only raspberries, I also put in some strawberries. I also bought a loaf of french bread, dusted it with cinnamon sugar butter (very lightly), and stuck it in the oven for a few minutes to toast. I then placed the dip on top of the bread, which made a tasty treat! Next time I might pair it with fruit to dip or even cinnamon graham crackers.

My favorite part of this recipe is that I have been able to repurpose it a couple of times now. I put it on a bagel earlier this week as a healthy cream cheese option, and then put a scoop in my overnight oats. It is a very diverse recipe!
The last food option I had was another vegan dish – quinoa fruit salad. We had a few vegetarians and one vegan that attended the shower, and it is very important to me that everyone had something that they were able to eat, hence all of the meatless options. Plus, everyone that came to the shower is willing to try new things, so I knew this would be a good group to test these dishes on.
For the fruit salad, I omitted the nuts just in case there were any allergies I wasn't aware of, and then I added raspberries instead of mangos and peaches. Once again, it is what I had on hand, and a good cost saver
The adorable pumpkin cupcakes were made by Stephanie, and she did such a great job! She found the recipe on the Brown Eyed Baker, and made them super cute for the snowflake theme! The creme cheese icing was without a doubt the highlight of the dessert. It was so creamy and delicious!
Photo from Steph
Now of course, you have to save the best for last! What did we put in those adorable mason jar glasses???
Some very very tasty sangria! Out of the girls that came to the shower, I think 6 of them asked for the sangria recipe. It was not too sweet or overpowering, and truly tasted homemade. Here's my secret – it wasn't! I was also sent 1 bottle of Eppa Sangria to try earlier in the week, and I thought it was fantastic. Rather than wasting time (and money) making my own, I went ahead and picked up 2 more bottles from Publix, put them in the fridge, and then just added fruit to soak the morning of the bridal shower.
A few quick details about the sangria: "Eppa Sangria is a smooth, rich and fruit-forward wine made in northern California. The palate-pleasing wine is created by blending select varietals, including organically grown Mendocino Cabernet and Syrah. The Cabernet provides the structure and depth while the Syrah brings fruit flavors to the party. The grapes are then blended with a unique combination of organic superfruit juices including pomegranates and blueberries as well as Mediterranean blood oranges, acai berries and natural citrus essences."
If you throw a shower for someone, do you stick to pretty diverse menu options? Are there any great recipes that you have made that work well for groups?
I was provided with coupons for Driscoll's berries, and 1 bottle of Eppa Sangria from the Baddish Group. All thoughts and opinions are my own, and are not influenced by the agency. I was not asked to use the food for the party – I chose to do so because I knew my friends would love it too.

PlayStation Plus January Free Games Shine Bright
Not only is a new year starting in a short while, but a new month is as well. That means new free games for PlayStation Plus subscribers.
Not only is a new year starting in a short while, but a new month is as well. That means new free games for PlayStation Plus subscribers.
Curve Studios has announced that it is bringing Facepalm's clone-tastic platformer over to the Wii U.
Sony is kicking off its annual summer program, PlayStation Store PLAY, today with a lineup of new games and special offers for customers.
Curve Studios has announced that it will be bringing the award-winning indie platformer, The Swapper, to the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in May.
Bringing up the ethical dilemmas in the midst of a puzzle/platforming game is a tough accomplishment, but The Swapper does so in a manner that is unforgettable in its execution. A small group of Finnish independent developers, ironically named Facepalm Games, have created an experience that is on par with the recent side-scrolling classics that have boomed throughout the indie scene over the past few years, such as Super Meat Boy, Braid, and Limbo. The game also evokes a sense of exploration and re-exploration that reminds us of Castlevania and Metroid. So keep a clone handy and be ready to have your brain swapped, because today, we review The Swapper.

Work detailsA Three Dog Life by Abigail Thomas
None Compact | Rate recommendations None. Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This is a moving story, beautifully told of the author's handling of the aftermath of her husband's accident. Out walking the dog one night, he was knocked down by a car and sustained horrific brain injuries. It's a story of finding some kind of acceptance of a life that's been irrevocably changed and a future that's been snatched away. There's no sentimentality here, just clear, sensitive narration of things we all hope we never have to experience. Largely it's about the mutual comfort to be found in the relationship between animals and humans (in this case the author and her three dogs). For dog lovers (or any animal lovers) the following passage, describing the author's occasional naps with her dogs (before the third arrived), rings so true: "... you might frind us together sleeping. We are doing something as necessary to our wellbeing as food, or air, or water. We are steeping ourselves, reassuring ourselves, renewing ourselves. Three creatures of two different species finding comfort in the simple exchange of body warmth." I read this in a few short hours, it was a sweet story about love and dedication. Makes me want to hug my husband a little tighter. I love the title"Three dog life" from the aborigines who sleep with their dogs. A cold night is a three dog night. Our pets sometimes are what help us through the difficulty in our lives. The wolf is always at the door. Thomas writes sparely and movingly of how her husband's devastating brain injury has changed and illuminated her life. Difficult to read without doing some personalizing and catastrophizing, for me anyway. Solid, moving, and unsentimental. I feel bad giving such a low rating to this--it's so...literary in its intent, and Abigail was a woman I found it easy to identify with undergoing a terrible tragedy. It wasn't far in that she was telling of her first date with her husband at Moon Palace in the Columbia University area of New York City, and it brought back memories--it was where my mother took me for my first taste of Chinese food as a child. There were a lot of landmarks for me such as that one in this memoir. But some of that identification was undercut by my feeling too conscious of the literary style--usually first person, but sometimes second person, often in present tense, shifting in time, with jumbling, stream-of-consciousness touches. Abigail Thomas teaches writing and at times the book screamed New Yorker to me. (The magazine, not the people.) I do like literary fiction; I can even name entire novels I've read--and enjoyed--in the exotic second person. But the good books make me forget I'm reading in a literary style--this made me overly aware of it. The other reason I can't honestly rate it high is that it was such a downer. Please understand, for me ratings are a completely subjective marker--and if I'm honest this isn't a book I enjoyed. Despite what the title and cover might lead you to believe, this isn't a heart-warming book about dogs. This is the epigraph heading the book: Australian Aborigines slept with their dogs for warmth on cold nights, the coldest being a "three dog night." - Wikipedia Abigail Thomas enters a "three dog life" when her husband is severely injured by a car accident. His frontal lobe gone, like others who have sustained Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), her husband Rich would suffer: "psychosis, paranoia, hallucinations, aggressive behavior, rages." The man she'd known and loved was--gone. Yes, there are three dogs who feature in the narrative--but this isn't a story about dogs. This is about mourning a person not yet dead but just as irretrievably gone. And despite mentions of family and friends in this memoir she comes across as isolated, alone. Not even three dogs can provide enough warmth to withstand the chill this book exuded to me. no reviews | add a review
References to this work on external resources. Wikipedia in EnglishNone Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0156033232, Paperback)When Abigail Thomas's husband, Rich, was hit by a car, his skull was shattered, his brain severely damaged. Subject to rages, terrors, and hallucinationsand with no memory of what he did the hour, the day, the year beforehe was sent to live in a nursing facility that specializes in treating traumatic brain injuries. This tragedy is the ground on which Abigail had to build a new life. How she built that life is a story of great courage and change, of moving to a small country town, of a new family composed of three dogs, knitting, and friendship, of facing down guilt and discovering gratitude. It is also about her relationship with Rich, a man who lived in the eternal present, and the eerie poetry of his often uncanny perceptions. Hailed by Stephen King as "the best memoir I have ever read," this wise, plainspoken, beautiful book enacts the truth Abigail has discovered since the accident: You might not find meaning in disaster, but you might, with effort, make something useful of it.

14 I pursue as my goal the prize promised by God's heavenly call in Christ Jesus. | 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. |
15 Therefore, all who are mature should think this way. And if you think differently about anything, God will reveal this to you also. | 15 All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. |

Spot-on the Standard Model
By Hamish Johnston
"Beyond any reasonable doubt, it is a Higgs boson, and here we examine the extent to which its couplings resemble those of the single Higgs boson of the Standard Model."
That's taken from the abstract of a new paper by John Ellis and Tevong You of King's College London. Ellis, of course, has been associated with CERN for decades and if he says it's a Higgs that's good enough for me!

It's official, it's a Higgs
By Hamish Johnston
It seems like only yesterday that the particle-physics blogosphere was on fire with rumours, speculation and even a bit of real information about the hunt for Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
How things have changed since a Higgs-like particle was identified in July last year. Since then, further analysis has revealed that the particle is even more Higgs-like – and today CERN has officially said that the particle is "a Higgs boson".

From Eden |
A poem. In my cornstalk palisade, Protected by sunscreen, earplugs, and UV glasses, I watch for ever-scarcer dove On a foam-lined swivel seat, Replete with shells, cold drinks and snakebite kit, Though there's greater danger now from ants, Scavengers whose fiery bites and matriarchs, Whose talent for communal life, Surely will inherit them the earth. A jeep has brought me to my station. Hardly aerobic, this sport, Modern conscience nags. And someone's left his truck so close That western sun glints on the glass Like a thousand neon lights, So I wonder why I crouch in camouflage. The birds don't fly; The sun eases down, Degree by slow degree. I break a long dead stalk of corn And chew it out of boredom, Amazed that there's the slightest trace Of tender summer green, Like the wispy scent remaining Long after the press of flesh on flesh. Why always in the woods Is there this ache of pleasure? Does the earth thrum up some primal pulse? Or is this an ancient distant call From that lost pair in the garden, Or a simple oneness with the season, Wearing the harvest landscape on my shoulders, Matching its tawny fields and mottled remnant greens, Trading the electric hum of home For the sibilance of cornstalks, And a wet winter wind. We are hunting here, to be alive, Even if no gray dove ghost down, Out of the dove gray sky. n Ann Sheils is a native of Savannah, Georgia, and has been a teacher, an editor, and a writer. When time allows, she enjoys wingshooting and fishing. |

If the pedal breaks like it did on me (got a nice limp for a few days) contact the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. This product should be recalled. Should not be on the market if it is hurting people.
14 Feb 2009 - Chocolate of NJ, US writes:
My personal experience with the produce was not favorable. It is very hollow and you have to be careful not to pedal so fast because it will begin to tip over. I do not have any pros about the machine. It is not a good machine. I rather just spend the cash to get a more sturdy one that will last. The machine is not a good affordable machine. It should be $20.00.

UPDATE: I went to their main page/Thane. On the right upper corner you will see the BBB logo. Click on it. Then instead of complaining of this useless product, you can inform BBB about the low quality of it. That it is what I did, and I got all my money back. Maybe if everybody complains, Thane will stop selling th Orbitrek. Good luck!!!!

The Orbitrek Elite is a piece of junk. We bought one, it broke after a month and a half, bought another one, only to have the new one break as well (in a different place) after two months. We tried to maintain the second one by constantly tightening the bolts (recommended, but a real pain) but it was a crank on the interior of the body (couldnt be tightened) that broke on the second machine. When we tried to get our money back, they refused, and offered to send a replacement machine, for another $65. Forget it. Not worth even $65. The orbitrek may be much cheaper than other elipticals, but its still a total waste of hundreds of dollars because its such a piece of junk.
7 Jan 2009 - Howie of California, USA writes:
I've been a little wary of most of the reviews here. It's much more common to find complaints in reviews than positive feedback. That being said, I don't disagree with many of them, but I would like to state that the more recent OrbiTrek Elite may well be better constructed and stronger than the previous OrbiTrek Platinum, so some of the earlier reviews might not be justified. But this site only offers reviews under the general OrbiTrek tag, thus lumping them all together. Anyway, this was a bit of a bear to put together. Like many others, the pedal bolt didn't want to fit through the connecting tube unless I really gave it some pressure. Interestingly, it screws tighter going anti-clockwise (lefty-loosey) instead of clockwise (righty-tighty), which made it a little more challenging. Now it's up, admittedly it's working out just fine. No way as solid as a $5000 gym machine, naturally, but stable when you're on it, and I've had no issues with loose bolts or things breaking. It may lack the long stride distance of professional machines, but more than makes up for it in the step-up department, and with no electrical assistance but only your own strength to pull you along, the workout is intense and you certainly feel the burn. This is a $200 machine. I didn't expect miracles, but believe it's a perfectly satisfactory machine. If this changes in the next few months, I'll be sure to come back and amend my review. Good luck, everyone, and please take all negative reviews with a pinch of salt and follow those construction instructions carefully!

UPDATE: I bought an Orbitrek about 6 years ago with a Lifetime warranty. We are now on our 5th or 6th machine as they are poorly made to say the least. Many things have broken but the frame is poorly welded and dangerous. The arm handle on the last machine broke while being used, lacterated my leg and through me to the floor. They sent me a replacement machine but his one as only used minimally for a few months and the welds are becoming very unstable again. I called the company and was told that they no longer will honor the lifetime warranty as they have changed the machine and no longer offer the original one. How convenient. If you read this please do not buy one, it is a waste of your money and you might be injured. The bad part is the machine can deliver a good workout but due to the poor design it just won't last. It really is a piece of junk.

DO NOT USE ALL CAPS. I purchased this equipment a little over a year ago. The crank for the right pedal was stripped and now the equipment is not operable. I telephoned the company and they were quick to re-sell me the same equipment again instead of selling me the part (crank). The crank is very easy to strip and the machine is a piece of junk. I'm disappointed that I purchase this product and I advise any and everyone, don't buy a product that has so many problems as the ORBITREK.

Please be advised, I read all the comments, for Orbitrek review. As I told [], Magnetic Orbitrek since mid 2008. It has been one problem after another. The bolts seemed to loosen letting the two platic pieces making up the wheel seperate, making a whole lot of noise. I tightened the bolts. The problem did not get resolved. The machine I have now, it is the third machine. It continues to make lots of noises. Has to be greased almost everytime I use it. I used an old [] for a very long time. I never had all the problems I am having w/this one. It is noisy & the upper handles, are coming loose all the time. It is very frustrating. Please be advised, I would not recommend any of your products to not even my worst enemy. You are providing a product that it is not well manufactured. And an accidnt waiting to happen. To make it worse the music you use in your DVD, are not in "the swing w/the exercise. Please be advised, I wil be posting this comment w/the others a tFitness informercial review. Well let me state, that I had learnt a lesson, I will never buy another product, from you or any other informacial.

I have owned the Magnetic Orbitrek since June 2008. It has been one problem after another. First the plastic wheel came apart. The bolts seemed to loosen letting the two platic pieces making up the wheel seperate, making a whole lot of noise. I tightened the bolts. Problem solved, right? Wrong! The very next time I used it 20 minutes in and it started clunking again. The bolts had seperated once again. I finaly just took the plastic wheel off because as far as I could tell it was just for looks anyway. The next thing to go was one of the bolts that hold the foot pedals in place. I could not keep it tightened. I would tighten the bolt and work out 20 minutes and have to stop and repeat the tightening. I finally ordered a new bolt set from Orbitrek which was covered by the warranty. Oh I did have to pay $10 bucks or so to cover shipping. I wait for the bolt set to arrive, about two weeks or so. I got the bolt problem solved and thought I was back on the road. Then the thing started making a scrubbing sound and I have since greased everything but still haven't found the problem. Then the bolt on the other side snapped off, this being the bolt that holds the right foot pedal in place. Lucky for me I had the extra bolt from the kit I had ordered to repair the other side. Last but not least the drive belt has started coming off. I have removed the cover for easy access, this because it keeps doing it everytime I use it. This is all since June 2008. Do yourself a favor and run from this elliptical machine. You will no doubt get more health benefits from the run.

I have had my Orbitrek Elite now for 2 months. Killer cardio, I mean killer. Well it seems that if you assemble the thing properly, and every 5 or ten times of use check the nuts and bolts you shound Not have a problem. I work out 5 times a week on this thing for 15 minutes a workout with no tension(all i can handle so far) in 2 months. Not to mention I an 5'10 235 L.B.S. So if I havent broke it yet??!! After 2 whole months, it still performs like it did when I bought it. Good luck!

I purchased my Orbitrek elite with all the bells and whistles for a whopping $346. It was delivered pretty fast, 11 days, got it home, and proceeded to assemble. Its a relatively easy 4 step assembly process, well when I got to step two, connecting the hinge bolts to the cranks, thats when my day was ruined. It tells you in the manual connect the right side hinge bolt to the right crank first, and procced the same with the left. The right side assembled perfectly, but when I got to the left side guess what, the left crank was only partially threaded! So now I have this overpriced piece of equipment that I havent even had a chance to use yet. Oh and did I leave out, the left hinge bolt is stripped out also. Nice birthday gift, I heard contacting these people is a lot of fun also, so we'll see when I call tomarrow.

It took less than 3 months for my unit to fall apart. It was squeaking terribly and leaving metal shavings on the floor…they said it was some king of gear problem. Within another week, the petal broke off. Even after they admitted that the problems I was having were "rare" and indicated that it was defective to begin with, they insisted that I pay for a replacement unit to be sent. It was completely within their discretion to satisfy my warranty claim in a satisfactory way and they chose to be jerks. They honestly expected me to pay more money to replace a defective product while I was still making payments on the first one. The customer service departments, online and on the phone, bounce you back and forth and all are extremely rude. Horrible quality, horrible customer service, horrible experience...never again

Since the late 1990s, I've had 3 Orbitreks, 2 original & the Platinum. The first one broke at the base of the front bar. Thane replaced it. The second one had the same problem. It was replaced with the Platinum and I paid the shipping charges. Added to the bolts needing to be tightened regularly, two weeks ago, while using the Platinum, I heard a noise and the machine felt wobbly. I got scared and got off, and found the that crank shaft was offline (so I thought). Figured I just had to jiggle it and it would go back into the groove. No such luck, I called the company and was told that it cannot be repaired. I will need to get a new one. My options pay a certain amount + shipping and get another Platinum (less than a new one) or if I wanted the Elite, I'll have to pay the full price for that one. I have decided to look at other machines. I should note the following: I weigh 125, and only use the machine when we have really bad weather (rain, snow/ice, extreme cold) as I prefer running/walking outdoors. Positive aspects: You do get a good cardio workout if you stay on it for 20 mins or more (it makes you sweat and gives you a jolt of energy). Negative aspects: noisy, not very sturdy, does not give that cooling breeze when you go forward, handles are awkward, it does not live up to the advertisement. As in baseball - 3 strikes and you're out. I will not be purchasing/using another Orbitrek. I don't believe that it's a safe product. Thank you.

What is a graviton?
What is a graviton? Where can it be found?
According to Weisstein's world of Physics, a graviton is "a theoretical particle having no mass and no charge that carries the gravitational force."
In quantum mechanics, we know that light comes to us in massless packets, or particles, called photons, which carries electromagnetic force with it. Because this worked so well and is essential to the theory of quantum mechanics, people hypothesized the existence of a similar particle which carries the gravitational force.
As of today (June 4, 2003) we have not found proof that the graviton exists. Because these particles carry very little energy, they are very hard to detect - but we're still looking!

Date 2012-04-17 Availability unrestricted Abstract This dissertation is a qualitative study of the relationship between a mother and a toddler with a disability. This study was conducted with both a mother and toddler at the Baby Therapy Centre in Pretoria, a facility that caters for babies and toddlers between the ages of birth to three years with special needs and developmental delays. The purpose of this research was to explore how the medium of music throughout a process of eight music therapy sessions might afford a mother and toddler with a disability opportunities for relating. Throughout the course of the music therapy process, moments of play, communication and meaningful interaction occurred between the mother and toddler, indicating a shift in the mother-toddler relationship, thereby advocating for the inclusion of mothers in music therapy sessions. The research approach adopted in this dissertation includes an in-depth case study of one mother-toddler pair, using interviews and thick descriptions of video excerpts as the main data sources. The findings from this research indicate that music therapy affords a mother and toddler with a disability opportunities to relate within sessions through play, musical interaction, instrumental play, vocal use and improvisation. The inclusion of the mother in music therapy sessions appeared to enhance the mother-toddler relationship, in addition to the learned transference of skills that the toddler acquired during the process.

Kettlebell Research: What Science Says
Kettlebells have enjoyed growing popularity as a full-body training tool for improving cardiovascular health and musculoskeletal fitness. Yet for all the enthusiasm among personal trainers, experimental research on the effects of KB training was scant until last year, when studies began showing up in peer-reviewed journals. Here are the recent research findings on KB training.
Study 1. Metabolic Demand of Kettlebell Training
Hulsey, C.R., et al. 2012. Comparison of kettlebell swings and treadmill running at equivalent rating of perceived exertion values. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 26 (5), 1203–07.
Experimental question. The two-handed KB swing is generally viewed as a foundational training approach for KB training. Researchers wanted to determine whether performing continuous KB swings would create an energy cost capable of improving cardiorespiratory fitness. To find out, they compared the metabolic demand of KB swings to treadmill running at equivalent ratings of perceived exertion (that is, subjective assessments of exercise intensity).
Subjects. Thirteen subjects (11 male, 2 female, average age = 21.4, average height = 69 inches, average weight = 170 pounds, average BMI = 23.5) volunteered for the study. All were deemed moderately trained and had no KB experience. Prior to testing, a certified KB instructor familiarized them with the two-handed KB swing exercise.
Study procedures. In the first experimental trial, subjects performed 10 minutes of two-handed KB swings, alternating 35-second swing bouts with 25 seconds of rest. The men used a 16-kilogram KB, and the women an 8 kg KB. Subjects were encouraged to maintain a steady swing count averaging 22–25 per minute. A certified KB instructor gave continuous feedback, helping subjects maintain correct swing execution and posture.
After 48 hours of rest, study participants returned to the testing lab and completed a 10-minute treadmill run at a subjective intensity (RPE of 15.3–15.5 on a 6–20 scale) equivalent to what they experienced during the KB swing trial. An automated metabolic gas analysis system commonly used in exercise studies measured oxygen consumption and kilocalorie expenditure. The final 7 minutes of each work bout were used for data analysis.
Results and discussion. Table 1 compares key cardiovascular and metabolic values obtained in this investigation. At an equivalent subjective RPE, subjects had no significant difference in heart rate. Oxygen consumption and calorie expenditure were significantly higher for treadmill running than they were for KB swings. However, it should be noted that subjects completed both 10-minute exercise bouts at above 85% of their age-predicted maximum heart rate. Thus, KB swings, albeit for just 10 minutes in this investigation, did elicit a physiological response necessary for improving cardiorespiratory fitness.
The study did not determine an optimal KB workout duration or a weekly frequency necessary to obtain a meaningful improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness; further research is needed to answer those questions. However, the kilocalorie expenditure (375 kcal) obtained from this study suggests that KB training is a viable exercise option for inclusion in a weight loss program.

Other Pets at Last Chance Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Rocko, a Waldorf Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Waldorf, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Waldorf.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Waldorf already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Waldorf breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Waldorf paves the way for another one to be saved.

LONGMONT, Colo. — Dave Ramsey is part of the vast and growing self-help industry that includes a diverse group of gurus including Deepak Chopra, Stephen R. Covey, Tony Robbins, Dr. Phil and Suzanne Somers. Mr. Ramsey may not be as well known as some of the other leaders in the self-help field but he has a radio audience in the millions and several best sellers to his name. In short, he has influence with the public.
Mr. Ramsey delivers a down-home message to which we should all take heed. Don't be "stupid."
His niche in the self-help marketplace is personal finance. He preaches a gospel of personal discipline and fiscal austerity as the path to a debt-free life and personal transformation – greater self-esteem, better relationships and freedom. The wisdom behind his life-changing prescription is not his own, Mr. Ramsey writes in The Total Money Makeover. It is derived from "God and grandmothers."
It's hard to argue with the ideas Mr. Ramsey champions. His recipe boils down to a simple idea captured so bluntly in an old Saturday Night Live skit starring Steve Martin in which a satirical guru advises over and over again, "Don't buy stuff you cannot afford" – to which Steve Martin replies, "Sounds confusing!"
Mr. Ramsey's recipe for personal transformation is based on a common, though perhaps not explicitly articulated, self-help philosophy: Individuals can't change the world. The best a person can do is choose how to respond to the situations and conditions he encounters.
Mr. Ramsey's philosophy resonates broadly and deeply in the United States because it rejects the notion that people are "victims" of their circumstances. Each of us has the power within to make the most of our lives no matter what hand of cards we are dealt. It is simply a matter of embracing personal responsibility and a little bit or gumption.
In Mr. Ramsey's world, people who suffered from the housing bubble and shady mortgage practices have no one to blame but themselves. When lenders agreed to loans that people clearly couldn't afford, the consumer should have said emphatically, "I won't buy stuff I can't afford."
The same principle applies to those who have wracked up mountains of credit card debt. People who pay exorbitant interest rates to credit card companies have no one to blame but themselves. Mr. Ramsey unmercifully reminds people on his radio show that video games, for instance, are a luxury, not an entitlement. Heck, from Mr. Ramsey's point of view a second family car is a luxury item if a person can't afford to pay for it with cash.
Again, it's hard to argue with Mr. Ramsey's advice. A person gives up her personal freedom if she succumbs to the siren song of easy credit. Mr. Ramsey inspires people to forgo these temptations by drawing common sense distinctions between "need" and "want."
But, there are those who find fault with Mr. Ramsey's advice as well as the other self-help gurus. Barbara Ehrenreich is among those who take exception with the self-help movement in her book Bright-sided: How Positive Thinking is Undermining America.
Critics of the self-help movement argue that an over-emphasis on personal responsibility ignores the power institutions can wield over people's lives. In the case of finance, for instance, Mr. Ramsey's austerity message, critics suggest, lets big corporations – banks and credit card companies – off the hook.
People shouldn't cut up their credit cards, the self-help critics say, they should clamor for their state and federal legislators to impose stricter reforms. Reform and regulation, not individual discipline, are requisite to protect consumers from deceptive and unethical (though perhaps legal) practices employed by big corporations.
It is hard to defend the practices of big banks, mortgage mills and credit card companies. Anyone who has tried to wade through the fine print intuitively knows there's some type of scam hiding in the text. Mr. Ramsey doesn't defend banks or credit card companies. He calls the fees people pay to these big corporations a "stupid tax" – i.e. individual consumers who pay unreasonable fees are "stupid."
Herein lies the rub that cuts to the heart of many public policy debates regarding consumer protection laws: Is the bigger problem that individuals are "stupid" or that big corporations are deceptive, perhaps even corrupt? Depending on where a person comes down on this question will determine the types of consumer protection laws, if any, he will support.
Conservatives tend to align with the self-help gurus like Dave Ramsey and focus their attention on the need for individuals to be more responsible – a.k.a. "smarter." Liberals, on the other hand, tend to focus on mitigating the power of big institutions such as corporations so to limit the number of individual consumers who are "victimized."
This, all too often, is where policy debates get stuck: Liberals accuse "pull up the bootstraps" conservatives of being callous and blind to corporate bullies. Conservatives accuse "namby-pamby" liberals of being too soft hearted and blind to individuals shirking personal responsibility. These types of tactics are a good way to promote books with clever titles but they do nothing to solve problems.
There is much being written about political rhetoric since the event we now collectively know as "The Tragedy in Tucson." One of the ideas that have been lost in the heated debates of the past decade-plus is the notion of balance. It's become more important to defeat political opponents than to find reasonable middle ground. Perhaps the dueling pendulums will begin to come back toward the middle.
The Dave Ramsey way makes sense. Individuals do have the power within to make wiser choices and avoid the "stupid" tax so many corporations prosper from when we pay. It also makes sense to force corporations to be more transparent. A healthy free market economy depends on readily available and good information.
As individuals, we can choose to make the best of our circumstances. So to, as individuals, we can choose to change our circumstances.

Smarter Business: Greening Advisor
A bicycle-friendly environment
Improving the infrastructure of your building to promote bicycling is a relatively inexpensive, small-scale change that supports alternative transportation. By improving bicycle access to your building or event, your company can help reduce traffic congestion and air pollution, which benefits the environment as well as the health of employees and the community. Employees who bike also enjoy the health benefits of exercise, and may also incur fewer medical expenditures.
How to Create a Good Bicycling Environment
- Install secure bicycle racks.
- Provide shower facilities.
- Offer incentives.
- Explain bicycling policies at employee orientation.
- Arrange discounts at local bicycle shops.
- Disseminate information about bike routes and bicycle-friendly public transportation connections.
