This month celebrates the frenzied craze of writing known as NaNoWriMo. I'm a WriMo and some of you might be asking, What is a WriMo?
Let me share. NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month and it takes place each November. The challenge is to write 50,000 words in a month. To call yourself a NaNo Winner, you must complete 50,000 words in 30 days.
Last year was the first time I accepted the challenge and stepped up to the NaNo plate. My husband kept asking me how I was doing with the 'Rino' thing—he loves to tease me, but he was supportive. His support was so important and so was the support of my writers group and buddies participating in NaNoWriMo. We cheered each other on and watched the word counts climb higher each day. We lent an ear when someone had a difficult day and only logged 200 words instead of 2,000 and we had a little friendly competition.
I had always wondered just how much I could write if I cleared out all the distractions and focused on typing as fast and furiously as I could on a book. When I signed up, I figured it would be a good way to get back into writing, but there was no way I could make it to 50,000 words. So why did I sign up?
Have you ever heard the story about Florence Chadwick—the first woman to swim across the English Channel from both directions?
In 1952, Florence attempted to swim the 26 miles between Catalina Island and the California coastline. As she began, she was flanked by small boats that watched for sharks and were prepared to help her if she got hurt or grew tired. After about 15 hours a thick fog set in. Florence began to doubt her ability, and she told her mother, who was in one of the boats, that she didn't think she could make it. She swam for another hour before asking to be pulled out, unable to see the coastline due to the fog. As she sat in the boat, she found out she had stopped swimming just one mile away from her destination.[2]
Two months later, Chadwick tried again. This time was different. The same thick fog set in, but she made it because she said that she kept a mental image of the shoreline in her mind while she swam. Courtesy of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_May_Chadwick
In November 2010, my fourth baby was just two weeks old when the challenge began and after the long and difficult pregnancy, I was feeling like I could conquer the world. And so I looked at my calendar and subtracted the Sundays and a couple other days that I knew I would not be available to write. Then I figured that I needed to write a little over 2,000 words a day to complete my goal. I really didn't think I'd be able to do it. I mean, do you know how often newborns need to eat and that's not even figuring in the sleep deprivation. But I pushed myself harder than I ever have in my writing and I did it. I've held onto that feeling of accomplishment for a year as I've continued to write, edit, and prepare for this next NaNo.
If you've ever asked yourself, "How can I find more time to write?" Then I would urge you to sign up for NaNo.
Something I discovered was that often the hardest part about writing, or any goal for that matter, is to get started. Sometimes we think everything must be perfect, we need to have every single plot wrinkle ironed out before we can begin. We must wait for the stars to align before we can begin. NaNo gives a person permission to write with reckless abandon and fill those pages with words as fast as possible.
Even now, a year later, I'm still practicing the lesson I learned. Just sit down and get started. If I only get to write for five minutes before one of my kids need me, then that's five more minutes than I would've written otherwise. I write in snatches and it's the most wonderful feeling when I'm playing with kids, changing diapers, reading books to them, racing cars, breaking up fights and through it all my word count is piling up. 100 words here and 200 words there make a big difference in chipping away at that 2,000 word goal each day.
I'd also like to note that 50,000 words does not a novel make—a novella, yes, but a novel usually is at least 70,000 words and many times closer to 100,000 words. The novel I worked on last year during November ended up being around 83,000 words and I revised like crazy for the next five months before turning it into my publisher. CALLER ID will be published March 2012 and I'm still editing/revising that baby! But without NaNo, I wouldn't have finished that book. I'm sure that I would have tried, but not realizing how much I could write would have prevented me from reaching my goal.
I have a deadline I'm working against for another novel, so during the month of October I challenged myself to a personal NaNo and wrote almost 40,000 words. I'll continue into November to finish that novel. If you'd like to be my NaNo buddy, click here for RachelleJ.Christensen
What have you learned about challenging yourself?

2012 Hyundai Veloster Recall for Sunroof Issue
Hyundai is recalling its 2012 Veloster models for a sunroof issue. The highly styled, three-door-coupe's panoramic sunroof "may have been weakened" during installation, according to the National Highway Safety Traffic Administration. Affected models were manufactured between November 1, 2011, and April 17, 2012.
The Problem
If the panoramic sunroof has been weakened, the glass panel could break which could injure the driver and occupants. If the car is in motion, broken glass could also increase the risk of an accident.
The Fix
Hyundai will notify owners of the recall, and dealers will inspect the roof's integrity. If the glass panel needs to be replaced, dealers will do so at no charge to the customer. The recall is expected to begin in January. Owners can contact Hyundai at (800) 633-5151, using Hyundai recall campaign number 108. Owners can also contact the NHTSA at (888) 327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or on the NHTSA website, www.safecar.gov.

This July my wife Julie and I are leading a team to Orange County, CA We are excited about working with Tony Wood and his team at Moment Church in the city of Tustin. They are a church plant who just kicked things off officially this year and we are excited to work with them and see "mobile church" first hand. If you've never been blessed by Tony's down to earth teaching style then you have to check him out!
We will be working with the homeless population, which some estimate being around 20,000 people with 60% being children and foster kids, Orange County's foster care system is overwhelmed with over 2,500 children needing homes.. We will hopefully be helping Moment with beach cleanups, and community appreciation events, as well as serving at the Orange County Rescue Mission. All this in the span of about a week.
Some of you might know that Julie and I feel a strong call from God to one day move to Orange County and plant a church. We know that this call seems ridiculous to our friends and family and perhaps this why we are so sure about it. We just want to be obedient servants of the Lord. That is why we are so excited about this trip to be able to share our hearts with a few of the people from our church July 21-29. We'd love it if you would be willing to help us.
Would you be willing to donate $10 or $20 to our team and help us make an impact for Christ together?
Click the Paypal donate button to help us go to Orange County
On May 20th we had a fundraiser called Orange Sunday below are the videos for that event. Check them out.

who is better at the guitar, in my opinion i love dave mustaine, but what do you all think?
who is better at the guitar, in my opinion i love dave mustaine, but what do you all think?
Keith Gatti
Save the environment, shoot yourself in the head.
And when there is no hope I'll smoke some crack I'll shoot some dope
Mustaine, never should have let him go IMO. Hammet's good, but not as good as Mustaine.
Mustaine definitely.
Mustaine, not even a contest.
Метал для життя
I found a pink cigarette/On the bed the day that you left/And how can I forget that your lips were there/Your kiss goes everywhere, touches everything/But me
damn im so tahnkful all of you agree with me haha. i think its not even a contest too, but i thought someone would say different haha
Oh, wait, that is the guy who always does those wierd things were they absolutely not belong...Like fiddling through Ecstasy of Gold, with some idiot happy tune.
Definitly Mustaine! There is no way Hamett is beter.
We do what we want
We don't care what anyone else thinks
- Cliff Burton -
Its Mustaine. But that dosent mean that i like Megadeth more. Metallica > Megadeth. As a band i personaly think that Metallica is WAY better. But yes Mustaine is a better guitarist.
- "If mankind doesn't eliminate war, war will eliminate mankind" - John F. Kennedy.
Come join the the MF picture editing competition!
Well clearly Mustaine, buts its also an odd comparison. Your comparing a riffer-songwriter to a soloist; Those are completely different aspects of the guitar.
Its like comparing:
Different aspects of the guitar done beautifully, impossible to say who is "better".
Ideally, you would compare Mustaine to Hetfield and Hammett to Friedman, though that has been done a million times anyway.
All you have to do is take a soloist and throw him on his own and see how far he gets. For most of them, they wont get far at all. Soloist need their riffer-songwriters to lean on to provide good songs, good "atmospheres" for the soloist to shine. Most soloist cant provide their own good "atmospheres" by themselves. Obviously Im not talking about the exceptions out there like Dimebag, Lahio, etc.
I think you mean Hammett as the soloist, and Mustaine as the riffer?
But not all solo's on Megadeth songs are done by Friedman/any guitarist except Mustaine. Mustaine does some of 'em too. And in Mustaine's solos is much more emotion/feeling than in Hammett's.
In my opinion.
This song shows some pretty good guitar solos between Mustaine and Friedman
Please correct me if it's Friedman or not though, I couldn't remember.
Yes, clearly Hammett as the solosit and Mustaine as the riffer. I dub that as obvious so I didnt specify.
Mustaines solos to me are complete junk. I cant stand his solos. And dont get me wrong, Mustaine is one of my favorite riffer-songwriters. But when up against Friedman, Mustaines solos are "immature" if you will.
IW, yes that is Friedman and Mustaine on that album. That song actually is a perfect example if you ask me to show the difference between Friedman and Mustaines soloing.
I dont consider Mustaine a soloist at all. He trys, and its cute, but he just needs to stick to riffs and songwriting.
Oh, I totally agree that with you.
But I was comparing the solo's of Mustaine to the solo's of Hammett. And then Mustaine is better, in my opinion.

If you are already a guest or a member sign in below.
Before appealing, you should gather as much evidence as you can in your defence. When CHOICE extended a call-out to members to tell us how they've successfully contested their parking fines, we received more than 60 responses. Several told us of blatant mistakes made by parking wardens who issued notices when no offence was committed or issued a ticket for the wrong offence. Most cases had one thing in common: those who thought they were unjustly fined made sure they gathered as much information as possible at the scene of the "crime". Building up evidence increases your chance of winning your appeal so you may not need to take your case to court. You can still elect to have your case heard in court if your appeal is rejected by the council, so you'll need the evidence anyway. For example, taking a photo of your car and capturing the immediate area around it may help you dispute a ticket. If you were parked in a space that required a ticket and the ticket machine was faulty, take a photo of the machine in question.
Many councils allow parking ticket appeals to be made online, so check your local council website for details. An online penalty review form may help save you time manually writing out and posting a long explanation. In most states, you have 28 days to appeal. But you should act quickly, as the process can take months. When Brisbane CHOICE member Lorraine was told she had to pay a fine for not displaying a ticket – despite appealing to the council with photos of how there were no ticket machines in sight – she decided to go to court. "About a month later I got a letter from the council that it had made a 'technical error' and that I was not required to pay the fine!" Whether you intend to appeal or go to court, be sure to act quickly before the payment due date as every reminder sent to you typically incurs further penalty fees.
Going to court gives you the opportunity to defend your case in front of a magistrate, provided you're prepared to take a day off work to attend. The procedure generally starts with letting the relevant council know you intend to contest the case. The council contacts a magistrate's court, which in turn lets you know the time and date of your appearance. You will have to prepare supporting evidence to produce in court If you convince the magistrate the fine was unfairly or mistakenly issued, your fine will be waived. If you lose, however, you may have to pay the fine as well as the costs to the court and the council that issued the fine.

The Louisville Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness received a big boost from the federal government today, according to Mayor Jerry Abramson and Congressman John Yarmuth, who told the media that Louisville has received a $7.9 million grant to help the city achieve its health goals.
Earlier this week LEO Weekly reported that an announcement by First Lady Michelle Obama would bring good news for a number of initiatives in the health department. And the hefty grant is expected to fund 23 city-wide projects that will, among other things, make healthier foods available in schools, improve physical education programs, build community infrastructure to encourage biking and walking, and make fresh produce more readily available by implementing "Healthy in a Hurry" stores in "food desert" neighborhoods.
"We'll be able to purchase a mobile grocery store to sell fresh fruits and vegetables to make them available in low-income neighborhoods," says Abramson. "The bottom line is with the congressman's guidance and the leadership of Dr. (Adewale) Troutman, this grant is focused in that direction to ensure the health of the overall community."
The award demonstrates that the federal government is recognizing the city for implementing a range of health policies, says Abramson.
Awarded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and funded by the federal stimulus program, about $373 million was awarded to 44 different cities across the country through the Communities Putting Prevention To Work, which is among the stimulus package's more competitive grants.
"The purpose of these programs is to make sure we're healthier and that our citizens have the tools with which they can keep themselves healthy and in so doing make themselves more productive and reduce health care costs, " says Congressman Yarmuth. "We're very excited about this very, very large grant and using these funds to make Louisville a better place."
The health department will administer the grant and the community projects funded by federal funds include (among other things):
Increase student participation in National School Breakfast and Lunch Program. Support the development of neighborhood-based projects that produce and sell local food products in "food deserts" Reformulate JCPS recipes to reduce the use of sugar and sodium in line with Institute of Medicine recommendations Increase student input into food and beverage choices for children in school Adopt and implement local "menu labeling" policies for establishments that sell prepared food Conduct "Food Fight" social marketing campaign Implement Louisville Metro Government workplace breastfeeding policies Increase access to Louisville Metro Parks and Louisville Loop Increase access to Louisville Metro Parks and Louisville Loop using public transit Increase public safety measures in Metro Parks and Louisville Loop Institute an Advisory Council on Food Policy Develop a joint Master's Degree in Public Health and Urban Planning at the University of Louisville Develop a community-wide media campaign to increase physical activity and improve nutrition

text: Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity "His God & Ours" first appeared in the May/June 2011 issue of Touchstone. His God & OursPatrick Henry Reardon on Why We Can Be Brothers & Sisters in Christ hortly after he assumed office earlier this year, the newly elected governor of Alabama created a considerable stir when he mounted a Baptist pulpit and declared, "If you have been adopted in God's family like I have, and like you have if you're a Christian and if you're saved, and the Holy Spirit lives within you just like the Holy Spirit lives within me, then you know what that makes? It makes you and me brothers. And it makes you and me brother and sister." The ensuing comments on this declaration were predictable. For example, did it mean, asked his political opponents, that the governor of Alabama would favor Christian citizens of Alabama over non-Christian citizens of that great state? Would Jews, Muslims, and atheists receive equal protection and enjoy equal concern from the governor's staff and administration? Since the makeup of Alabama's population is roughly 107 percent Christian, these questions certainly appeared legitimate. The dust from the controversy seems largely to have settled now. The governor's office issued the appropriate explanations. His staff quickly researched the archives to find the politically correct clarifications. The more liberal religious leaders decried the governor's narrow-mindedness. Apologies were offered to those offended. And so forth. Perhaps it is now safe to suggest that the governor of Alabama was trying to make a theologically valid point. There were better ways to make the point, to be sure, and an elected political figure is the absolutely last person who should make it. But the point itself is important. Customary for Jews Let me see if I can say it better: God has only one Son. The Holy Spirit enables the rest of us to become children of God by our identification with this one Son, in whom we become brothers and sisters to one another. We pass no judgment on anyone else's conscience, but the Christian faith obliges us to declare that this one Son is the sole mediator between God and man, and in his name alone is eternal salvation. This is the doctrine that defines Christian existence. We learned this doctrine from Jesus, who spoke on the subject in several places and at some length. It is not hard to trace the development of this thesis in the Gospels. In Jewish worship, it was customary to address God as "Father." Abinu, Malkinu"Our Father, our King"has always been a standard praise formula in the synagogue. It is not surprising, therefore, that we find this form of address in the teaching of Jesus, even as we find it in his own prayer (Matt. 11:2526; 26:39,42; Mark 14:36; Luke 22:42; 23:34,46; John 11:41; 17:1,5,11,21,24,25). When, in his sermons to the people, Jesus spoke of God as their Father, the ascription contained nothing to which his adversaries could object. No Pharisee would complain at being told, "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them" (Matt. 6:26). Nor would the declaration, "Your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things" (6:32), give offense to the high priest. The Jewish leadership recognized these ideas from the teaching of the Torah and the prophets. Unique to Jesus It was quite another matter, however, when they listened to a Galilean carpenter who declared, "I am one who bears witness of myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness of me" (John 8:18). How could they endure to hear, "I do nothing of myself; but as my Father taught me, I speak these things"? (8:28). In those instances in Holy Scripture where Jesus speaks to God as Father, the prayer reveals an intimacy with God for which inherited Judaism provides no real parallel. The term "Father" expresses the uniqueness of his relationship with God. For example, All along, Jesus' enemies had complained of what they saw as his casual attitude toward the Lawespecially the Sabbathbut this talk of God as his Father went much further: "Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was his Father, making himself equal with God" (John 5:18). Let's give Jesus' enemies credit for getting this much right: "We have a Law, and according to the Law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God" (19:7). Thus, when Jesus spoke of God as "my Father," the expression was not a metaphorical reference; he was not saying, "God treats me like a father treats his son." "My Father" was not an external ascription that could be re-phrased into some other intelligible form. The semantic force of "my Father," from the lips of Jesus, was unique, personal, and utterly literal. "Father" was no figure of speech. The name "Father" expressed, rather, who Jesus was in relationship to God. This man, Jesus of Nazareth, inwardly knew the Fatherby being one with himin a way not otherwise available to human beings. Indeed, no one could know Jesus as he was known by this Father: "All things have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father" (Matt. 11:27). The Gift of Jesus The astounding gift of Jesus to his disciples was the invitation to partake of his own intimacy with the Father. When he proclaimed, "Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son," he went on to add, "and the one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him." This offer to share his relationship to the Father was the immediate context for Jesus' summons: "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matt. 11:28). Matthew's version of the Lord's Prayer conveys this unique sense of relationship with the Father, the relationship that Jesus shares with believers. The "our" of "Our Father" forbids us to separate this prayer from Jesus' revelation of his Father to believers. To be a "child of God" means to partake of Jesus' relationship to the Father. Thus, the "our" includes the believer's union with Jesus in this common prayer to the Father. This was the summons given at the glorification of Jesus, when he spoke of "my Father and your Father, and my God and your God" (John 20:17). Patrick Henry Reardon is pastor of All Saints Antiochian Orthodox Church in Chicago, Illinois. He is the author of Christ in the Psalms, Christ in His Saints, and The Trial of Job (all from Conciliar Press). He is a senior editor of Touchstone.

June 18, 2003 (LINTON) —Linton scored twice in the bottom of the seventh inning to pull out a 7-6 victory over Ellendale and earn a split of a doubleheader. Ellendale scored four times in the top of the seventh to take a 6-5 lead, but Nick Schuetz led off the bottom of the frame with a single, stole second, and came home on Kyle Carr's single to tie the game. Carr moved to second on the throw home, and then stole third. With one out, Carr came home on a wild pitch for the game-winning run. Steven Weber picked up the victory for Linton, and Carr (3 RBI, 2 runs) and Ross Schiermeister (RBI, run) each had two hits for Linton. Ellendale won the opener, 5-3, to hand Linton its first loss (4-1) in Section 2.
June 22, 1983 (LINTON) —Linton scored 8 runs in the bottom of the first inning, and then cruised to a 16-5 victory over Braddock in five innings.

Ph.D. in Depth Psychology with Emphasis in Psychotherapy
Pacifica's Depth Psychotherapy Program offers students the opportunity to engage in the exciting conversations taking place in the field of psychodynamic psychotherapy. The Institute has assembled an expert group of training and supervising analysts, drawn from the Psychoanalytic and Jungian traditions. They co-teach a series of practicums that promotes learning from experience with special emphasis on the embodied insights arising from the transferential field.
The overarching goal of the Depth Psychotherapy curriculum is to help students gain clarity about their own unique analytic approach and help them to develop the mental muscle needed to thrive in a profound reciprocal relationship with the unconscious. The program facilitates the development of an intuitive and imaginal intelligence coupled with a nuanced emotional connectivity.
In addition, Pacifica's commitment to interdisciplinary studies provides the foundation for students to expand their clinical sensitivity through the exploration of music, myth, literature, philosophy, culture, and the new sciences. Finally, Pacifica's vision of research fosters the development of the scholar-practitioner, who will conduct inquiry centered on the living psyche to expand the frontiers of a depth psychologically oriented psychotherapy that is inspirational and relevant to a multi-cultural world.
Courses are offered in the following three areas:
- Theory and Traditions of Depth Psychotherapy
- Psychotherapy Informed by the Humanities and Interdisciplinary Studies
- Integrated Praxis: Research and Casework
The curriculum is designed for students who have completed sufficient coursework for licensing at the master's level. This foundation allows for an emphasis on experiential learning supported by approaches to research which are similarly experiential and psyche-centered.
The Ph.D. in Depth Psychology with Emphasis in Psychotherapy includes three years of course work and the successful completion of an original dissertation.

Solar energy involves capturing and harnessing the sun's energy. There are three main ways of doing this:
- Passive solar design
- Active solar water heating
- Solar photovoltaics
How it works
Passive solar design
Passive solar design involves the application of design principles (such as south-facing windows) to make sure that excess heat loss is avoided and solar radiation is captured, in order to minimize the need for heating and lighting. The reverse is also true, so that minimizing the capture of solar radiation, coupled with the use of natural ventilation, helps to reduce dependency on mechanical systems such as air conditioning.
Active solar water heating
Active solar water heating uses collectors, usually on the roof of a building, to capture and store the sun's heat via water storage systems. The collectors provide heat to a fluid that circulates to a water tank. The heat is primarily used for heating water in domestic dwellings, industrial facilities and commercial buildings. This includes the growing market for solar swimming pool heaters.
Solar photovoltaics
Solar photovoltaics (PVs) convert energy from daylight into electricity using a semiconductor material such as silicon. When light hits the semiconductor, the energy in the light is absorbed, 'exciting' the electrons in the semiconductor so that they break free from their atoms. This allows the electrons to flow through the semiconductor material (in a similar manner to a normal electrical circuit) producing electricity.
There are a number of PV technologies, including polycrystalline, monocrystalline and thin-film. Solar PV cells can be arranged in panels on a building's roof or walls, and can often directly feed electricity into the building. With the latest PV technology, cells can also be integrated into the roof tiles themselves.
Groups of solar PV cells can be added together to provide increasing levels of power. This can range from small, kilowatt-sized solar panels for use in domestic households, to larger arrays, which function as separate solar power plants feeding power directly into the electricity grid.
Solar PV cells can be used in both stand-alone and grid-connected systems.
Solar energy is only produced during the day and also varies in output due to cloud cover. In the case of small-scale solar PV systems, batteries or other forms of electricity storage can be used to store the electricity for periods when the output is low but the demand is high. For solar thermal systems, the hot water can be stored for a limited period of time in well-insulated water tanks.

Why You Can't Quit the Internet
A scientist offers an explanation for what's pulling you into the Internet's rabbit hole.
Brought to you by Liberty Mutual's
The Responsibility Project
Spending hours and hours on the Internet is either productive or unproductive, depending who you ask. We've noted the school of thought that claims technology disrupts your sleep, your productivity and even your biological ability to connect one-on-one. But then, there's also the idea that a "digital distraction" can give your brain a break between tasks, actually increasing your productivity.
But whatever lured you from your research "to Wikipedia, to [finding] out whatever happened to Depeche Mode" says Tom Stafford, a cognitive scientist at the University of Sheffield in the UK, it's not the content, it's the structure of the Internet that sucks people down the rabbit hole.
In fact, Stafford asserts in an interview with LiveScience, email and social media have the same reward structure as that of a casino slot machine: You'll have to pull the one-armed bandit plenty of times, but "every so often, you hit the jackpot – in the case of the Internet, a tidbit of juicy gossip or a heartfelt email [….] The instantaneous payoff only strengthens the Internet pull." Eventually, Stafford says, the Web's unpredictable payoffs result in a Pavlovian response, conditioning us to seek a social rush over and over. And that rush is virtually limitless, he adds, since there are no boundaries between tasks. The article notes that while studies suggest there is actually a willpower muscle to flex, the fact that the Internet is always on means that you can flex it to exhaustion.
Stafford gives the tips of committing to work until a certain task is complete before surfing and then allowing five minutes of Web surfing. And there are many other tips online about how to stop surfing (just surf for them…).
Do you feel that the lure of the Internet helps or hurts your productivity – and do you have a personal protocol for surfing? Share it here.

Test Your Kids Health IQ Video
How much do you know about kids' health? Good Housekeeping has a little quiz for you
How much do you know about staying healthy? Answer the 3 questions in this Good Housekeeping health quiz and find out. Number 1, how much sleep do you need every night? Less than 6 hours, 6 to 8 hours, or more than 8 hours.

Six hours of sleep is the minimum your body needs for your immune system to repair itself. Other studies have found that more than 8 hours of sleep a night is linked to higher mortality rates, so too much isn't great, too little isn't good, 6 to 8 is just right.

Question number 2, how many minutes of direct sunlight should you try to get each day? Less than 5 minutes, at least 10 minutes, or more than an hour?

You need 10 minutes of direct sunlight a day regardless of the season. That's because 10 minutes is the amount of time it takes for your body to produce sufficient vitamin D and vitamin D is important because it helps your bones absorb calcium, making them stronger.

And the last question in the Good Housekeeping quiz, how many miles should you walk everyday? Less than 1 mile, 1 to 2 miles, or 4 miles?

People are shocked to find out you need to be walking 10,000 steps a day. That's roughly 4 miles for optimal health, but this is the point in which studies have found your risk for heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers drops dramatically and it's also the point in which your immune system gets a boost. Now, mind you, this is 4 miles accrued over the course of a day so that's everything from trips to the mailbox, walking up and down stairs, anything that gets you moving. If you're not sure how much you're walking, picking up a pedometer at your local drug store is a good idea.

I'm Rena Maliszewski for today's Good Housekeeping Report.

5 Pure AwesomeShafa23 | 22/07/2013 | See all Shafa23's reviews (8)Ive completed this game 2 days ago and loved every moment, the levels, bosses, cutscences.very similar to the metal gear solid universe, (cool mad bosses, good story, great graphics and subtle humour)However its not a all sneaking but cutting everything up!, its very smart it has different combos.It is very challeneging but very rewarding once you complete a level or a boss fight. Some boss fights can take you more than 20 attemps, but you will defeat them at the end.I recommend this game to anyone who calls themselves hardcore gamers and want a challenge.
5 Amazing!odkfn123 | 04/03/2013 | See all odkfn123's reviews (14)Played and completed this game 3 times and will do so one or two more times before I give it a break for a while!It's cut from the same cloth as all other metal gear solids' (cool bosses, good story, great graphics and subtle humour) but it makes a good change from sneaking about as you just go wild and carve everything up!To summarise, it's similar, yet still massively different from other MGS' games. I highly recommend it and it's the first story mode I've played over and over straight after completing it since zelda.
4 An Epic and Futuristic Story of Sword-Wielding CyborgsCAPCOM29 | 21/08/2013 | See all CAPCOM29's reviews (2)First of all, if you are an avid fan of the Metal Gear Series, this game doesn't tick the boxes of the traditional Stealth-Action and Tactical Espionage game that has made Metal Gear so successful. It's more of a tribute to the previous games with the only returning character being Raiden, the protagonist from MG2. There are other treats for fans such as the use of Codec, and boss fights with previous Metal Gears, however not enough I feel to appeal to loyal gamers of the seriesIf you are new to the Metal Gear Games or just like games with a lot of action packed missions, violent and graphic cutscenes with a good story to match then this isnt a bad game at all. It has all the features of a post modern, techno mad circus with the use and reference of a lot of high-tech AI and electronical tools and weaponry, the twist being that rather than playing as some sort of mercenary whos bursting at the seams with firearms, you play as a ninja, a cyborg ninja whose primary weapon is a high frequency blade. So Slice and Cut your way through the game for as long as you please. My only criticism is it can be quite hard in some places when your not fully prompted or briefed on what to e.g how to defeat certain bosses. Nothing a quick call to mission support can't fix
4 Starts ok to dull......becomes AMAZING !!!danielst1981 | 08/03/2013 | See all danielst1981's reviews (9)I have to say I downloaded the demo played it once and turned it off unimpressed. I went into town one day to buy Crysis and they were sold out, so in my frustration I picked up this instead.I put it on and again felt a bit frustrated, I was gettin beat up ALOT and didnt feel like I was playing with the finesse and skill that you see from the adverts. I was about to give up.But i kept going. And after a bit I was rewarded.....it takes a wee while to get used to playing, I have it on the xbox and to parry attacks you have to push forward on the left stick and press X at the same time just as the enemy is about to strike you, and once you learn this the game opens up....after that I was beating people left right and center, and with such fun.The boss battles are amazing and set pieces unreal !! I absolutely recommend it, and bare with it cause you get better and things become awesome.I would have said 5 stars but Im only half way through and thought it would be daft to rate it 5 if im not finished.
4 excellentTheLegend2 | 26/02/2013 | See all TheLegend2's reviews (2)brilliant game, as well as challenging, if you put it on normal that is! The gameplay and story line is enjoyable and easy to follow. only problem is the length of the campaign i cleared it in under 6 hours playing it on normal. I will highly recommend it, as i have loads of fun slicing the enemies to bits.

Alleged Gunman Still Inside Home Where Officers Shot
Originally posted on KTLA:
WILLOWBROOK, Calif. (KTLA) — Authorities on Thursday identified an alleged gunman who was found dead after a standoff at a home in Willowbrook.
Howard Michael Carl Partee, 34, of Willowbrook, allegedly wounded two officers in a shootout on Tuesday evening, setting off a barricade situation that went on for about 13 hours.
The shooting happened 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday in the 2200 block of East 117th Street.
LAPD officers and Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies were conducting a probation check at a back house on a property.
Police were leaving when they apparently smelled marijuana coming from the front house and decided to investigate.
As the officers were ordering people to exit the home, gunfire erupted.
"The suspect basically ambushed our officers as they were conducting a search of that residence with probation," LAPD Lt. Andy Neiman said.
The alleged gunman was in the attic above the kitchen, police said.

On "The O'Reilly Factor" on Monday night, Bill O'Reilly neatly boxed in Fox News contributor Brit Hume, who had demanded that Tiger Woods become a Christian in order to find forgiveness for his extramarital affairs.
Hume had startled the media when he made the comment that Buddhism does not offer the kind of redemption and forgiveness offered by the Christian faith.
"Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world," Hume said.
On his show Bill O'Reilly asked Hume straight up if his amazing comments were proselytizing.
Hume should have known better, but he launched into another impassioned plea for Tiger Woods to convert.
"Look, Tiger Woods is somebody I've always rooted for, as a golfer and as a man . . . and I've always said to people that it was the content of his character that made him beyond his extraordinary golf skills so admirable.
"Now we know that the content of his character was not what we thought it was. He is paying a frightful price for these revelations. My sense is that he has basically lost his family . . . and my sense about Tiger is that he needs something that Christianity especially provides and gives and offers and that is redemption and forgiveness.
"And I was really meaning to say in those comments yesterday more about Christianity than I was about anything else. I mentioned the Buddhism only because his mother is a Buddhist and he has apparently said that he is a Buddhist. I'm not sure how seriously he practices that. But I think that Jesus Christ offers Tiger Woods something that Tiger Woods badly needs."
Bill O'Reilly dryly noted that if Woods converted, he would be accused, like Bill Clinton after Monica Lewisnsky, of doing it for show.
Hume continued: "What I'm saying is, if Tiger Woods were to make a true conversion, we would know it. It would show through in his being and he would know it above all and he would feel the extraordinary blessing that that would be.
"And it would shine because he is so prominent. It would be a shining light. And I think it would be a magnificent thing to witness."
Clearly Hume has no qualms making Christianity a better religion than all others. Clearly too, O'Reilly knows that Hume has lost the plot somewhere along the line.

Outsourcing activity in Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) region has recorded its strongest performance during the first half of the year since 2008 in terms contract value, accounting for more than half of worldwide value, according to Information Services Group (ISG).
The growth was driven by a stronger demand for IT outsourcing activity in the UK, Germany and France.
During the period, the outsourcing contracts value increased 32% year-on-year in the region to €5bn, while the number of contracts increased 25%.
The UK saw a 6% increase in contract value to €1.4bn despite a slight drop in contract counts to 83, from 92 the previous year.
Germany recorded a strong year-on-year growth in the first half of 2014, with around €740m worth of contract awards compared to €530m in 2013.
The growth was driven by almost double the number of contract awards from 30 in the first half of 2013 to 59 during this year.
France became the second largest outsourcing market in the region with €930m of ACV along with some big contracts signed during the period which was more than three times compared to the first half of 2013.
ISG partner David Howie said: "Overall, we've seen a good performance across EMEA this quarter - and not just because last year's weak second quarter makes this year's results shine."
"The market is moving in the right direction, and the first-half year-on-year comparison is testament to the market's strength."

Kendall Jenner's DASH Puppy LoveThursday, January 19, 2012 9:37 AMShowing off her prized pooch, Kendall Jenner was spotted hanging out at her family's store DASH in Calabasas, California yesterday (January 18). The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" cutie carried furry Louis out to her white Mercedes G-Wagon along with a bag full of finds from the store's new spring offerings. In a recent interview, Kendall's mother Kris Jenner revealed that Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney Kardashian have been good at keeping Kendall and Kylie out of trouble. "[The older girls] drill messages into their sisters' heads so they won't make the same mistakes. But it's Khloe who checks the younger girls' e-mails and texts to make sure they're not up to anything inappropriate." |

While the right is busy vetting Obama's relationship with Ayers, the left is starting to take another look at McCain's very questionable military record (losing 4 planes, flying 20 hours of combat, getting caught). Wonder if the MSM will give this story as much cover as it has given Ayers? CQ Politics | McCain Camp Ignores Questions About Candidate?s Military Record The Rolling Stone piece, "Make Believe Maverick," by Tim Dickinson, likewise calls into question McCain's military legend. It portrays him running from his burning jet on the Forrestal's deck and virtually hiding in the carrier's ward room while others died fighting the ferocious fire and exploding ordnance. In all, 134 soldiers died in the tragedy. ... According to these accounts, McCain, whose A4-E Skyhawk was queued up in a line of jets waiting to take off, "wet started" his engine, a prank designed to startle a trailing pilot with a flame of exploding kerosene. Here's the Rolling Stone piece: Make-Believe Maverick : Rolling Stone
I posted the stuff about the forrestall about a month ago, the folks of the right dismissed it.. I think you mean sailors.. the records of this were not released by the Navy.. so speculation will ensue.. RockCreekFreePress Articles
This has already been discussed ... aren't moderators suppose to merge threads that are repeats of old threads. Also ... this has already been debunked as McCain's planes engine was facing out to sea at the time of the incident.
The old thread WAS Patters' thread. He is an absolute stupid joke of a Moderator. Step down, please, Patters. You continue to embarrass yourself.
I think the Stones article raises many new questions, and I do think I've posted specifically about this incident. True, I have mentioned that McCain destroyed 3 planes through apparent carelessness, but this prank business, as GJAJ pointed out, hasn't been posted in awhile. When the righties top with the distortions about Obama and Ayers, perhaps it will be time to stop with the stories about McCain's rather miserable military record and the rumors about him.
You are Patters aren't you ? Regardless (and I apologize for my error) Patters posted in the thread and needs to quit this crap.
BF, while I understand you don't want your candidate attacked, try to man enough as the Obama supporters are who regularly put up with lies about Obama's relationship with ACORN, Ayers, and others. Of course, you perhaps think those charges against Obama are true, and I think they're no more legitimate than the accusations against McCain. Stop trying to censor threads because you don't agree with them. You'd be on stronger grounds if you condemned threads as unfair on both sides; otherwise, you're just being partisan in an obvious way.
They are and there is ample evidence of it. If you want to argue that those relationships are old and moot, great, but they are actual, real relationships as opposed to this crap.
Well, I feel the same way about McCain's military record -- losing 3 planes, lying about how he lost at least one of them, possibly involved in a "prank" that killed 134 soldiers, flying 20 hours of combat, getting caught, making propaganda tapes for the Vietnamese, signing a confession, and offering military secrets in exchange for hospitalization. And add to that, committing adultery on his wife, helping out Keating, joining a right-wing organization that included Nazi sympathizers, and so on. There's at least as much proof about McCain's military record as there is that Obama had a close relationship with Ayers. In fact, Obama's relationshp with Ayers was marginal at best, and was related only to educational reform, on which Ayers was supported by businesspeople, Republicans, and others. You can dish it out, but you can't take it.
People who have never served in the military have no business criticizing those who have. Many planes crashed at that time ... that is fact. People who have never been tortured have no business criticizing those who have. Then again many on the left have no respect for the military ... we know this. The rest is fair game IMO although McCain was cleared on the Keating stuff. John McCain served his country and Obama has not. No more needs to be said on that topic. One thing I am sure of however is that John McCain does not currently support extreme Islamic nuts as in Odinga like Obama has. John McCain has made mistakes in his life ... Obama continues to make them as the Odinga fiasco recently shows. Obama supports people who hate America ... John McCain does not.
1. The military is not some magical cloak of arrogance that indemnifies anybody from the consequences of their actions. Americans have every right to question individuals in positions of public trust in the government, whether or not they are government employees. The same is true of the military. 2. As was the case with Kerry, there are many who served in the military openly critical of McCain. Some simply recall incidents while serving with McCain. They do not do this because they don't want people discussing it. They understand the stakes. So do all of us. Why are you dishonoring the service of those soldiers and sailors? 3. Most on the left, including many who served in the military, have plenty of respect for the military. If it's possible that a prank took out 130 sailors, then yes, "respect" for them would be to give the details a public hearing. 4. From the beginning, McCain drafted Bud "Swift Boat" Day, specifically to anticipate and answer "Swift Boat"-like attacks on him. Just because the "mainstream media" (i.e., the right-wing leaning coverage on the real networks, and the talking-point memo that is Fox,) plays ball when it's done from the right wing (2004,) but not the left (2008,) shouldn't make you bristle. The incidents still happened. McCain has shown inventiveness in embellishing his war record (i.e., the "cross in the dirt" story that evidently kept happening to people in communist captivity...) and I don't see him as above all reproach if there is a story there. Evidently, this one has legs. Well, I just saw this story for the first time. Why don't you tell me how it's "debunked"? PFnV
Your reasoning is torture. Does that count? Frankly, your point is absurd. The fact that McCain was a victim and survivor is relevant to a point, but not to the point of making him commander in chief. His record needs to be looked at honestly. That's a matter of perception. Our lack of respect, if any, is for the military and political policies that lead us astray. Obama has certainly served our country, by helping steel workers and poor people, by teaching, by working as a State Senator, by working as a US Senator, and by getting tens of thousands of people involved in the election. While it's true that soldiers service, their are millions of other who provide service to our nation in other ways. Why did you support Hillary if you think she didn't serve our nation? No, McCain supports people who hate America, people who imply that Americans who share Obama's views are terrorists, are communists, or even should be killed. When Wright said, God damn America, he was referring to that America that is quick to say that anyone who questions the military, fights racism, opposes poverty, and objects to bigotry is unAmerican. He was saying, FBN, god damn to your America, your narrow America that says the only service is military service and that liberals can be unAmerican, but not conservatives. It's your America that may be coming to a close, and I think it's causing many people with your views to become a little unhinged.
Factcheck.org Q: Did McCain crash five planes? Did he cause the 1967 Forrestal fire? A: No. Chain e-mails and Internet postings that make that claim are mistaken. And the Navy commended his piloting skills. This was brought up so many times in previous McCain campaigns. It was false then and surprise it still is.
Welp, Factcheck seems to say "no." There seems to be pretty good support that McCain did not personally take an aircraft carrier out of commission and cause the deaths of 134 sailors. He did have a little problem over Spain, and from the looks of the rate at which he lost aircraft, it seems very weird how smoothly his career went. There are also noted gaps between official investigations and his own recollections (and those of his approved biographer.) And he does himself note "pranking" over Spain, though all he did was take out a few power lines. So, the official military notes on the subject seem to say McCain did not blow up the USS Forrestal by being a dumba$$. Thanks for the link. PFnV
Sp {atters how bout telling us about your service and the sacrifices YOU made. My enlistment was pretty never served in a combat area, my orders to Pleiku were cancelled in 73. How bout yours? I was happy when the bomb Ayers design blew up during assembly killing some of his terrorist comrades. They were planning to bomb a dance for military personel in NJ. Pretty sick huh. Imagine if a pubbie candidate hung out with a guy like T MCVeigh. That would be outrageous don't you think? Guess you are OK with terror and murder al long as they terrorist are fellow travellers eh,,,
I saw video of this as it happened. A zunni 2.75 inch rocket mis-fired from another plan and struck McCains. His plane was engulfed in fire.From watching the video(HX Channel) it was a miracal he got out alive. The whole plane and deck were in flames 1000lb.bombs and zunni rockets started cooking off blowing holes in the deck, and starting other jets on fire. I wouln't doubt after coming so close to being either burned alive or blown up that he hide somewhere from tramatic shock. PATTERS your pretty good at this stuff maybe you can get a job with the RNC.
