US News Releases List of the Best Diets For Healthy Eating
by Toby Amidor in Diets & Weight Loss, Food News, November 1, 2011With the holidays around the corner, the idea fitting into sparkly holiday outfit is starting to make some folks sweat. Many are tempted by diets that'll help them lose 5 or 10 pounds in a flash. But is that really healthy or safe? U.S. News just released a new list of the healthiest diets, ranking the most popular diets from 1-20. You'll want to give this a read.
What Are U.S. News Best Diets Rankings?
Many clients and friends ask me, "Which is the best diet?" That's the million dollar question U.S. News set out to answer. To do so, they spent 6 months researching and analyzing 20 diets. In June, Twenty-two experts — medical doctors, dietitians, health educators — then rated each diet from 1 to 5 (5 being highest) in seven categories such as how easy it is to follow, short and long-term weight loss and its ability to prevent or manage heart disease or diabetes. Each diet was then ranked in 5 categories: Best Diets Overall, Best Weight Loss Diets, Best Diabetes Diets, Best Heart-Healthy Diets, and Best Commercial Diet Plans. You can see the results here. Today, US News added an additional category: The Best Diets for Healthy Eating.
Why the New Category?
Many dieters will do whatever it takes to shed pounds—even if it's unhealthy. That's why the U.S. News decided to compile a sixth list, The Best Diets for Healthiest Eating. It's refreshing to see someone putting health and safety first when it comes to weight loss! The ranking for this category specifically focused on safety and the nutritional completeness of the diet (how closely they lined up to the USDA's dietary recommendations). Safety carried a double weight when the scores were calculated.
The Results
The top 3 Best Diets for Healthiest Eating are:
#1: DASH Diet (score: 4.8)
The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) has been around for years. It was developed by the federal government's Department of Health and Human Services and promotes fruits, vegetables, lean meats, while decreasing saturated fat and salt.
#2: TLC Diet (score: 4.7)
The Therapeutic Lifestyle Change (TLC) diet was developed by the National Institutes of Health. It ranked pretty close to the DASH Diet for healthiness. It promotes high calcium and fiber foods, while lowering your overall intake of saturated fat.
#3: Mediterranean Diet (score: 4.6)
This diet focuses on whole grains, lean meats and fish, olive oil and fruits and vegetables. It even encourages you to sip on a glass or two of red wine. All recommendations are pretty close to the USDA's Dietary Guidelines without compromising safety.
Want to know who didn't fare so well? In last place at number 20 was the Atkins Diet (score: 2.0) due to severe restrictions on veggies, whole grains and fruit. The Raw Food Diet came in 19th place (score: 2.1) due to a shortage of calories—you still need to eat enough calories to lose weight safely. Other issues with this diet includes a lack of calcium, vitamin B-12, and D along with a high risk of food poisoning from eating raw and undercooked foods. The ever-popular Paleo Diet came in 18th place (score: 2.2) . It's one of the only diets where experts agreed that it was "somewhat unsafe."
Here is the complete list of the healthiest diets.

Monsieur Marsac is also quoted in other places as pushing the blame off to the slow adoption of Kinect for the XBox as a contributor to the sell-off….hmmm, really? It might not have something to do with the OTHER two brands involved, and not the most popular console gaming system on EARTH???

"I recieved my order last week, the look and feel of the cards are just perfect, they are lovely and they will work very well with my fall party. Very happy customer. Thank you,"
"This card was the perfect card for our wedding! We were able to fit a lot of information on two cards which saved us a lot of money! It is customizable and the person who reviewed the card did EVERYTHING we wanted. It is perfect!"
"These menu cards are the perfect design for our wedding. The designer was great in creating exactly what I wanted, right down to the date format. I wouldn't have minded them slightly bigger, but I can't really fault anything!"
"I love that we could put a photo on the back, it just added another personal detail. I thought the date looked a bit funny at the bottom, and I didn't catch it until they arrived. I would have changed the month the be capitalized, since the numerical portion is so much larger. Otherwise, I love them."
"We transformed the menu card into an invitation insert and added the bridal party, flower girls, and reception information. It turned out better than we expected. We chose this in purple, along with the invitation and response card."

Sweet Crybaby Dana: Small-Town Psychologist's Invaluable Advice
John Floyd's article made me remember why I don't live in a big city any more. The guy is obviously very unhappy. There are a lot of bands and musicians I don't like, but I don't go around bashing them. As Floyd said, James Taylor's concerts are usually sold out. That must tell Floyd something -- or is he that ignorant? He is a very unhappy person and should get help.

Sweet Crybaby Geri: One Precious Reader Gone Forever
I'm not sure why anyone would give John Floyd a voice in any publication, or why I should waste my precious time reading him. I'm sorry I did, because he clearly doesn't understand much.
I'm thankful that New Times can't possibly reach as many people as James Taylor's incredible contributions can. I will never again read anything in New Times as long as Floyd has a voice in it.

Sweet Crybaby Diane: Don't Quit That Day Job, Floyd!
Shame on John Floyd. He considers himself "sensitive"? I think not. Although everyone is entitled to his own opinion, I cannot conceive of how he came about his perceptions.
"Banality"? Who was he listening to? Is this attempt at a review intended to be inflammatory and attract some attention to his byline? Did he refer to his dictionary and thesaurus to come up with some of his inane verbiage?
Unfortunately, I suspect he has a snowball's chance in hell of attaining "love-sick-sucker" status. (Perhaps if the word love was subtracted from the phrase, he would qualify.)
Certainly a reasonable person, regardless of musical taste, could not conclude that a talent like James Taylor is an "asshole or a jerk." Wish I could say the same about Floyd the quasi journalist. My rating of his review? Less than zero stars. Hope he has a day job.

Sweet Crybaby Kathleen: Sheesh on Floyd
Come on, John Floyd, tell us what you really think of James Taylor. Sheesh!

Sweet Crybaby R. Rene: Do We Detect a Teeny-weeny Insecurity Here?
Obviously John Floyd has no life, no friends, no talent, and no dick. Perhaps, as he puts it, "no one is calling James Taylor a jerk or an asshole," but I feel the same cannot be said of John "No Dick" Floyd.
Jerk and asshole don't begin to cover dickless John Floyd. The "review" I read was nothing more then a baseless, hateful, jealousy-laced personal attack on a fine and talented artist and man. I don't have the time or the inclination to counter or argue Mr. Eunuch's pointless criticism of James's voice, talent, songwriting, et cetera. (I'm surprised he didn't critique his attire.)
I have seen James and his siblings perform numerous times and own everything I can find on CD, record, tape, and video (they are all very talented and accomplished musicians), and I must say, from my point of view as a musician and recovering alcoholic, James's and his brother Livingston's music has had a profound effect on my life and helped me survive some very dark moments.
As to the penisless Mr. Floyd, he obviously is not familiar with James's whole catalogue, just his "hits" (which are also great). He doesn't know what he's missing. Meanwhile, perhaps he can find a good surgeon to attach a dick, or perhaps one of those implants, or maybe he could buy a strap-on. But even with a dick he wouldn't be half the man James Taylor is.

Sweet Crybaby Dave: James Taylor Can Too Play Guitar
I am a big James Taylor fan, and I don't necessarily disagree with John Floyd's general comments about Taylor's somewhat tiresome diatribes regarding love. But some of us actually appreciate Taylor's musicianship. He's a helluva guitarist and has a much better command of song structure than 90 percent of his peers. His understanding of passing chords and other devices usually found in jazz harmony leave the majority of singer-songwriters floundering in his wake.
Dave Fairall
Baltimore, Maryland
Sweet Crybaby Scott: James Taylor, Tragedy Magnet
I think Mr. Floyd overlooks much of Taylor's life -- his hard-core heroin addiction, his two failed marriages, his Greatest Hits album (the best-selling greatest-hits album of all time, according to Billboard), and his pain.
His album Enough to Be on Your Way is about the death of a close family member from alcoholism. Perhaps it is easy to stereotype Taylor because he was the first one. He has played with great performers like Neil Young, Jackson Browne, and Garth Brooks. In fact, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd fame admits that the "Dark Side of the Moon" song and album were partially inspired by Taylor's "Carolina in My Mind."
Mr. Floyd is hostile, and I bet younger readers (I am only 26) eat up the simplistic barbs and cheap shots, but perhaps we will see if the bands of today are still selling out tours and having gold albums, which Hourglass is -- almost double by now.

I don't actually know enough about basketball to make my own bracket.

*This offer is still available! Don't miss out!*
Don't you love getting fun things in the mail? Over the weekend we received our five Dr. Seuss books and Dr. Seuss backpack. My children were sooooo excited! Since the theme of the month is Dr. Seuss their schools have been talking about Dr. Seuss since March started.
Last week I ordered a Dr. Seuss book/backpack for our family. I paid $5.95 out of pocket and we received one backpack (toddler size) and 5 brand new Dr. Seuss books. The books fit perfectly in the backpack…and there is room for a few more books too. Getting all six of these items for $5.95 shipped to my door means I basically paid $1.00 for each item. Looove that!
To get this offer:

- Once your items arrive in the mail, login to your account online and cancel the club membership. You will not be charged again and you are not required to make any other purchases.

Heidi's Advice to MBA students
Heidi Garcia is a student in Dominican's MBA in Global Management program. Prior to attending Dominican she has worked within many industries: She was a purchasing agent at Robert Mondavi Winery for 10 years; she worked for an organization that specialized in greeting cards; she now works for Agilent Technologies, a high-tech, global business-to-business organization headquartered in Santa Clara, California.
Heidi shares her thoughts on Dominican's MBA program and offers valuable advice to incoming MBA students.
Dominican's MBA ProgramsTake Action |
Dominican stands out
Dominican stands out from other programs in the Bay Area because of the types of classes it offers. Dominican classes are cutting-edge because they're relevant to what's happening in today's global environment.
Global perspective
I drive for over 45 minutes to attend Dominican, and it's well worth my time. When choosing a graduate program, it was important to me to find an MBA program that would provide me with a global perspective. Dominican definitely does that and more.
I really appreciate that Dominican has many international students and that I get to work with them closely.
Public Speaking with Dr. Denise Lucy
One of my favorite classes at Dominican was a prerequisite public speaking class I took with Dr. Denise Lucy. She is really fun and determined to prepare you for public speaking. I remember one particular thing about her: She counted how many times you said "umm" during your presentation.
My first presentation contained 18 "umms," my second presentation contained one "umm", and by the end of the class, I had no "umms" at all. That was very satisfying.
Working Across Cultures with Dr. Jayati Ghosh
Since I work for a global organization, I was very interested in the class taught by Dr. Ghosh called "Working Across Cultures." In the class, I really learned how to work with individuals from different cultures, which is a prerequisite for success in today's globalized world. That class opened my eyes in many ways and I really learned how to work, communicate and collaborate with people from other countries. For example, many of my team members were located abroad and we had to communicate via telephone. That was a big learning curve, and one I was glad to have experienced.
Business Environment in South Africa with Thea Bellos
Instructor Bellos's class introduced me to South Africa, apartheid and Nelson Mandela. In addition, the final team project was an in-depth study of South Africa. All in all, it was an incredible learning experience, not only because the topic was very interesting, but also because Instructor Bellos's class and the robust and engaging final project prepared me for the capstone.
Always available Dr. Chris Leeds
Dr. Leeds was my first point of contact at the University: When I applied for the MBA Global Management Program, Dr. Leeds interviewed me. He quickly put me at ease: I was impressed by his positive and engaging personality. Later, as I started my MBA, he provided valuable insight and guidance. Imagine: he told me that I could connect with him anytime. And he really meant it: He always responds to my e-mails within 24 hours.
Lessons I learned at Dominican
My advice to incoming students
What you need to succeed:
How to work in a team
In the corporate world, working in a team is the norm. Dominican prepares you to be a successful team member by making you work in teams on most projects.
To be a successful team member, I recommend that you:

Cortland County Lawmakers Consider Spending $1.4 Million to Cap Landfill Cell
Wednesday, March 12, 2014
Cortland County lawmakers are considering spending $1.4 million dollars to cap and close a waste holding cell at the County owned landfill, the cell has been full for several months now and needs to be permanently covered.
In a unanimous vote yesterday the County Legislatures' Solid waste committee approved using up to $580 thousand dollars from a landfill capping fund that was established to fund closure of landfill cells, that leaves a nearly $850 thousand dollar project deficit; lawmakers are considering borrowing the rest of the money.
County Deputy Highway Superintendent Bob Buerkle says the old cell needs to closed per D-E-C regulations. Buerkle says the contractor will use chipped tires and other materials to place a permanent cap on top of the garbage. When the project is finished it will look like an open green space similar to previously capped portions of the facility.
Buerkle says the contractor will be required to utilize a large pile of used tires at the landfill as part of the capping project.
The contractor can chip the tires and use the material as part of the permanent cover, or they can truck them off site and get rid of the tires elsewhere.
Lawmakers voted to hire Binghamton based Gorick construction to do the work, Gorick submitted the lowest bid for the project beating out local contractor Adhan Piping which also bid on the work along with 4 other companies. Buerkle told lawmakers that the County has previously worked with Gorick to construct cells at the landfill.
County Administrator Martin Murphy said the $850 thousand dollars would likely be rolled into a larger municipal bond that would also include money to replace the Little York Lake Dam, and funds to continue the counties multi-year highway improvement plan. Murphy was unsure what the county may pay in interest on the borrowing and exactly how long the term might be.
The measure must still pas the legislatures budget committee and a full vote of the legislature.

Nice invitation
Bicycle Built for Two Foldover Pockets Careful as fresh colour can rub off on white envelopes
even better than i had pictured myself
Romantic Monogram Rectangle Invitations I loved my save the date magnets but I was really nervous about buying invitations online without seeing them. I made several edits and the designer sent me proofs and my invitations arrived yesterday. I am beyond thrilled with how beautiful they are. My expectations were exceeded by far, they are beautiful and of such quality and done to my exact specifications. I cant get them in the mail to my friends and family fast enough. So so happy!!!
Amazing product!
Bicycle Built for Two Foldover Pockets We could not be more thrilled with our invitations from Magnet street. They have gone above and beyond to make sure the product we ordered was perfect, and even went as far as calling me and sending me proofs. We were able to customize everything exactly as we wanted it. We are so impressed with this company and getting my invitations in a beautiful box was just the icing on the cake . Thank you for helping us make our day so special!!
Love love love this magnet! :)
Gettin' Stitched Save the Date Magnets This design caught my eye right away! Once I customized it to my colors (charcoal grey, eggplant, hydrangea green) I loved how it looked. Charcoal was the background color with everything else in eggplant and green. The photos I chose to use were very colorful so that helped add the right amount of extra color. After purchasing, I liked how you could track what stage your order was in and it gave a description of what was being done. The magnets were produced very quickly and shipped before the estimated shipping date. Overall, I highly recommend ordering from here and I absolutely adore my save the dates! :)
Very Classy
Romantic Monogram Rectangle Invitations This card arrived in the amount of time expected. It was on thick cardstock and looked just like the pictures. They were beautiful. I did have some trouble with the sizing of the letters and the placement of certain parts of the invitation. There was not ample amounts of space if you are looking for the traditionally worded invitation (all numbers spelled out into words, both sets of parents...etc.). However, these are great if you plan on using enclosure cards!

Smoke, Drink, Break-Up Mila J Feat. Ty Dolla $ign, Kirko Bangz & Problem
Mila J lets go yet another "Smoke, Drink, Break-Up" remix this time enlisting Ty Dolla $ign, Kirko Bangz and Problem.
Mila J continues to let go various remixes of her single "Smoke, Drink, Break-Up." After hitting us with a French Montana edition, Mila J returns to her Ty Dolla $ign remix (it has his same verse from the other mix), adding in Kirko Bangz and Problem. Not only does it have two new features, but the beat has received more than a few change ups, including a very noticeable speed-up, which honestly sounds a bit strange. What do you think about the production revamps? Is the original better or worse?
We're unsure if this is an official remix at the moment It is official. Enjoy and let us know your thoughts.
Quotable Lyrics
I gotta be outta my head to smokin with you
On Monday I love you, on Tuesday we fuckin'
On Wednesday we break-up
I got this drank in my cup, and I'm slowed up
I got these pics in my phone, I can expose us

An Insider's Peek at an Industry Leader, Plus an
Exclusive Interview with Mr. Olympia Phil Heath
If MuscleTech supplements work for Phil Heath and Branch Warren, that's good enough for the legions of aspiring bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts that purchase MuscleTech products every day. Recently, we sat down with representatives of MuscleTech and talked about a wide range of topics currently impacting the industry, and to see what keeps MuscleTech on top of its game.
In an industry where companies sometimes rise and fall like the tides, it's comforting to know that some organizations are reliable over the long haul. For the last 18 years,
has been cementing its position as a leader in the supplement industry. The company has experienced incremental growth, never cut corners, and never threw in the towel. Today, they sponsor both the reigning Mr. Olympia, Phil Heath, and 2012's Arnold Classic champ Branch Warren.
Rest assured, MuscleTech's top execs have an interesting perspective on where the industry stands today and where it's going.
As a bonus, Mr. Olympia champ Phil Heath was able to answer some questions as well. So let's get started!
Q. Please tell our readers how your company started.
MuscleTech began as a direct-to-consumer mail order business in 1995. We started off with three products-Creatine 6000-ES, Acetabolan, and the original Hydroxycut formula-which were sold individually, or as a stack. Word started to spread that our formulas worked, and more and more people experienced success with our products. As the buzz grew about our products, so did our company.
Just a year later, due to significant consumer demand, we launched our Wholesale Retail Division. Shortly thereafter our products started flying off the shelves of some of the biggest vitamin and health retailers across the country. The rest, as they say, is history.
Q. What was the initial motivation to start MuscleTech?
We felt that there was a significant gap in the industry when it came to quality, research-driven products and so we saw the opportunity to fill that gap. We wanted to create a supplement company that was committed to producing quality, science-based formulas with scientifically backed ingredients.
It's hard to believe that here we are, 18 years later, and we still follow that same philosophy. It's helped make us a major player which leads the way with scientific breakthroughs and innovative products that continue to dominate the industry.
Q. What are some of your top products right now?
We launched a number of new products in the last year that have been huge for us. Even more are on the way in 2013, but some of our top products right now are our intense new pre-workout,
, and the new formulation of our flagship
Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite
, an intense new super-thermogenic that people are reviewing well.
We have a few new products hitting shelves that I'm really excited about:
. PUSH10 is a new, one-of-a-kind pre-workout formula that delivers a powerful strength and performance boost without stimulants, creatine, or any banned substances. PHASE8 is a new multi-phase, sustained-release protein formula that combines six different proteins with different digestion rates so that it breaks down slowly to supply muscles with protein and amino acids for eight full hours.
Q. Who are your sponsored athletes, and how do they impact the industry?
Top athletes give your company recognition and credibility, and we have two of the top guns in bodybuilding: the reigning two-time Mr. Olympia, Phil Heath, and 2012's Arnold Classic Champ, Branch Warren. We easily have one of the most impressive pro athlete rosters in the business.
Q. Let's say a customer is just starting a fitness regimen, can only afford one product, and he/she comes to you. Which one supplement do you recommend? Why?
That depends on what they're trying to achieve. If their main goal is building muscle, I recommend
, which combines ultra-pure whey protein isolate with the strength and performance enhancing abilities of creatine.
If they want a super-thermogenic, then I definitely recommend Hydroxycut Hardcore Elite. If their main goal is sports performance, then I recommend either NeuroCore or new PUSH10 pre-workout products to help them get better overall results out of their gym sessions.
Q. What do you believe are the best and worst things about the supplement industry?
Best: We help people transform their lives for the better; truly terrific and positive people in this industry; and the chance to help athletes raise their game.
Worst: Not all companies are equal; some provide great formulas clinically backed with human research, some do not; we have not yet convinced every person on earth to supplement daily.
Q. How important are the trade shows and expos to the growth of your company?
Trade shows are critical for us globally. Any chance we have to interact with our fans and consumers is a golden opportunity. That's why we always bring our popular team members like Mr. Olympia Phil Heath, Branch Warren, and Jon "Bones" Jones to meet the fans.
In 2011 we initiated our MuscleTech Sample Station at the Arnold and Olympia expositions with a simple concept: Get the best sample package in the industry and get your picture with your favorite athlete. The feedback has been phenomenal. We'll continue to give the folks what they want!
Q. What separates your company from all the others in the industry?
We are committed to continually evolving so that we deliver the most innovative, effective, science-based products available. That is what sets us apart. We always look for new ways to improve our existing products and seek out new supplement technologies and ingredient advancements to remain on top of the industry. People always want the latest and greatest new ingredients. In this business, if you're not evolving, you're done.
Q. What does your company do to ensure ethical standards?
I believe ethics begin with a better quality of product, and we do everything possible to ensure our product quality. If you remain committed to quality, ethical standards have to follow suit, and all of our ingredients are thoroughly tested to ensure the highest standards of quality and purity.
Q. Does MuscleTech perform its own research? How will science guide your future?
I take pride in Iovate's state-of-the-art scientific capabilities and I believe that our Scientific Affairs Division is in a class by itself in the supplement industry. We invest heavily in the company's product development activities.
Our research and development team is a highly experienced group of people with degrees in nutrition, biomedical toxicology, pharmacology, chemistry, biotechnology, human biology, and human kinetics, performing in-house research, and quality-control activities.
Our products are built on legitimate science and we use a combination of in-house research, third-party research, and strong partnerships with many renowned and respected institutions, universities, and laboratories throughout the world. Compare our facilities and methods to other companies, and our superior dedication to research is easy to see. That's why we've got the most cutting-edge science in the industry and a legacy of breakthrough innovations.
Advanced scientific research is what built this company, it's what took us to the top, and it's the secret to our future success.
Q. Is there anyone you would like to thank or give a shout-out to?
First, I'd like to thank ProSource.net for being a great partner to our company and for honoring us with this feature. Second, I have to thank the fans of our brands for their continued support and trust in our products. Third, I have to thank each and every employee at Iovate. Without their passion for the industry and their dedication to our company, its products, and our consumers, we wouldn't be able to help people around the world improve their health and their lives.
Interview with Mr. Olympia Phil Heath
Q. How long have you been sponsored by MuscleTech? What made you join the team?
I signed on with MuscleTech about two-and-a-half years ago. I wanted to take my career to the next level, and for me, MuscleTech represented that step because it's one of the brands that helped make our industry what it is today. They've actually been around for a long time.
When I first got into bodybuilding, MuscleTech was a company that was already established as one of the big players. It has always been an innovative company that uses science and research as the foundation for its products. I've known a lot of people over the years who used their supplements and got good results, including myself. Much like me, they strive to be the best. So for me, it seemed like a perfect fit. I only go with what I trust, and I trust MuscleTech.
Q. Why do you think it's important for athletes to earn sponsorships?
First, I think it's important because it helps legitimize bodybuilding as a sport. Company sponsorship is part of any major sport, so for our industry to grow and become more accepted into the mainstream, I feel we need to have more bodybuilders given sponsorships and widespread exposure. This will help drive more people into it to help it grow, which will consequently also elevate the level of competition.
Second, bodybuilding is unfortunately not a lucrative sport, which means that many bodybuilders depend on sponsorship just to get by. Professional bodybuilders work extremely hard to get to where they are, and it can be an expensive lifestyle. Unless you consistently place near the top or have company sponsorship, you're going to have people who just scrape by and eventually just quit.
Why would a young person want to stop playing something like football or basketball to face hardships like that, when they can have big money and fame elsewhere? We need more supplement brands like MuscleTech to help promote not just the athletes, but the industry itself.
Q. When training, what is your favorite MuscleTech supplement? How do you use it?
There are a number of MuscleTech supplements I use in my training regimen. This question also depends on what my goal is at the time. So for example, if I'm trying to bulk up, get cut, get stronger, I always tailor my supplement regimen to match the type of program I'm on.
However, the one MuscleTech supplement I can say that is my overall favorite is definitely
Nano Vapor
. The taste is good, but the results I get are great! All my workouts are grueling, challenging and super intense, so I need every edge I can get to help keep me going and push me to the next level.
Nano Vapor gives me insane energy and razor focus. I take three scoops about a half-hour before training, and I'm jacked up and ready to go. I can easily say this is the best pre-workout that I've tried.
Q. How do you know MuscleTech's products work?
For starters, MuscleTech built its reputation on developing products that are based on real research and development. When I first started training, long before I ever became part of Team MuscleTech, I used some of their products because they came highly recommended by friends who experienced good results with them, and I found that they worked for me too.
After I joined Team MuscleTech back in 2010, I got a chance to meet the people behind the company. I saw how serious and committed they were to developing only cutting-edge products that worked, and I was impressed. They maintain their high standards for quality to this day, and I still use their products. I can still tell you firsthand: I know for a fact that their products work.
Q. How has your performance in the gym improved using MuscleTech's supplements?
I can't just attribute it solely to MuscleTech products, but I've definitely noticed a difference with them. I mentioned how much I love Nano Vapor, and that it gives me amazing energy and heightened focus, but I've also gotten some good results with some of their other products, like last off season when I was bulking up and used
. Not only did it help me pack on the pounds, but I noticed I had more strength than normal than last time around.
I used
, and that stuff was pretty insane. I'm a pretty big guy, so there aren't many supplements out there that can knock me on my ass, but that hit me pretty hard. Intense energy, laser focus, and some crazy sweating. I needed two towels for those workouts.
My favorite workout tends to change, depending on when you ask me. I like to keep modifying my workouts, constantly changing it up and throwing new elements to make sure my body never gets used to anything. I'm in the off-season right now, so at the moment, I say quad days are my favorite. Ask me again in about five months, and I'll probably have a different answer for you

IKO is a 60-year-old family run business, begun in Calgary, which plans to produce roofing shingles in Sylacauga using calcium carbonate mined locally as one of the materials.
The company expects to employ 70 people at the plant, which is always a welcome addition for the community.
IKO has 25 manufacturing plants across the U.S., Canada and Europe, and company officials credited local development officials with helping to sweeten the deal to help the plant become a reality.
We can't help but wonder if IKO's owners see signs of a rebound in home building on the horizon. Even if that's not the case, the new plant is a sign of optimism about the state of the economy in the near-term. Where the economy is concerned, optimism tends to lead to actions that bring positive results.
We're pleased to see new manufacturing jobs in a new industry setting up shop in our community.

Because distribution was once discriminatory, many first time independent feature filmmakers had to hold their breath in hopes their movies would get into a film festival, buil buzz, and (hopefully) garner a great distribution deal, complete with a cash advance. But that is an outdated model.
Indie Filmmaking As Your Business
Part of why filmmaking seems challenging and impossible is because many of us start our career with the belief that filmmakers need a gazillion dollars, tons of experience and an address in Hollywood to make a living as a "real" filmmaker. While this was once true, the new model of movie making allows you to create and sell movies from anywhere in the world.

Pretty much all day I've been trying to watch basketball. Of course the 24 hours of college basketball would be on the day that I have a speech to give and also the day I am crazy busy. Because of those reasons unfortunately I have not been able to watch as much as I would like to, but I'm fully prepared to watch Butler play Xavier. It should be on right now, but currently ESPN is in the final minute of the Detroit vs St. John's game, which this minute is turning into 2 hours it seems like.
Obviously I am prepared for a Butler win tonight against Xavier. If anyone knows Xavier and Butler have had a rivalry for quite some time now and it hasn't always been pretty, but I won't go into that. Typically I would travel to the close games for Butler, but because I have to give a speech today I really had no choice but to stay home for this one.
If there's one thing that probably frustrates professors is how all of sudden everyone becomes sick on basketball days. Typically students will skip class to watch the game or even go to the away game, but with the latest conference switch many teams Butler will be playing will be far away, so maybe this can change the whole sickness of Butler students on game day.
All I can say is if I over blog about Butler basketball I apologize. It's seriously my favorite time of year.
What I got to saw this past weekend!

A pet owner in Canada is hoping to raise awareness about petfood packaging dangers after her Yellow Lab suffocated after getting his head stuck in a petfood bag, according to a report.
Natalie Burnell took one of her dogs for a walk, while leaving her other dog, Bison, at home in the basement. But, Bison got into a bag of cat food in the home, which got stuck on the dog's head and caused him to panic, Burnell said. Burnell found the dog dead in the basement when she came home.
"I had no idea he could suffocate from these bags. . . . I keep blaming myself for not putting the bag one shelf higher," she said. "It's been such a huge blow. He was such a big part of our lives and we thought he would live a long life.''
Burnell advises pet owners to cut up the petfood bags before throwing them away. She is also asking petfood manufacturers to put warning labels on the packaging so that other owners do not experience the same thing with their pets.
The most recent theory is that feline idiopathic cystitis is caused by stress
The maker of raw and holistic diets seeks to help transform pets through its products, philosophy, education and research
This book takes a decidedly different turn from the usual consumer-oriented petfood fodder
This small family business prepares to introduce innovative, functional formulations beyond its signature cherry products
Is the Proportions whole food nutrition program a healthier alternative to conventional diets?
Now is the time for packagers, producers, marketers and manufacturers to capitalize on the traveling with pets trend

'Bumping into Roadies'
05 October 2010
'Bumping into Roadies'
Rome. Day off.
One of the joys of European hotels is that breakfast is often included in the room rate €" i.e., free. This is the case here at the very groovy and staggeringly over-designed crew hotel. The pinnacle of its pretension is the breakfast room. With space-age, white, curved walls, bucket seats and sharply contrasting colours it really does look like the missing set from Austin Powers. Breakfast is served til 10, so naturally most of the tour staff arrived at 09.59 on the dot. Happily the staff members weren€™t phased, though it was hilariously like eating in catering because in this large and busy breakfast room there wasn€™t a single person I didn€™t know.
It was a real day off for everyone in the €˜universal€™ crew and being in such an extraordinary city the default activity for all was simply to go sightseeing. This is what I did, spending the day walking, exploring and bumping into roadies at practically every landmark in town.
I don€™t know if it€™s half term or something, but even at this time of year Rome is absolutely heaving. The tourist destinations were just rammed with people, none more so than the Trevi fountains. Prior to the movie Three Coins in the Fountain this place wasn€™t that big a deal but since that and La Dolce Vita it has become an essential part of the tourist trail. As well as being famous, the Trevi fountain scores by actually giving its visitors something to do. Initially this was simply to throw a coin into the water but it seems these days an elaborate ritual has grown up along the lines of having to throw a coin with your left hand over your right shoulder with your back to the fountain standing slightly on one leg whilst (naturally) your mate snaps a shot of you so doing.
My vantage point for observing the fountains was on the roadway on the slightly elevated side, so I had a good view of the whole strange ritual. The more I watched it, the more peculiar it seemed to me. For starters the whole of the square containing the fountain was packed with people beyond any sense of proportion. It was quite literally like trying to get to the front of house mix position during I Will Follow. Why would anybody want to do this? Something to do on vacation? To fill the silence? The €œreason€ is said to be that if you do this you are certain to return some day, though one can€™t help suspecting this rumour is put about by the people who scrape the cash out of the fountain each evening. Apparently around '¬3000 gets thrown into the fountain every single day (thank you WIkipedia) which puts me in mind that I should work on building something similar at my place when I get home, whilst promoting a tradition of having total strangers come and chuck money at it. It€™s an odd one.
I was feeling a little run down so after a respectable amount of sightseeing I went back to Mrs Miggins€™ B&B for a nap. Awoke well into the evening so took a late stroll out and met Raff, who directed us to the little trattoria they€™d just come from. Finally, great Roma food€¦

Back to the fountain
Madness what people will do to ghet a shor of themselves in front of the Trevi fountain, isn't it? Whatever happened to being in the moment? (i.e. just waltzin on up and throwing in your coin, without the bother of posing?) Anyway, I'm boring and you're not Willie. Roll on . . .
18 October, 2010
That exactly describes it!
We experienced exactly the same thing when we did some sight seeing prior to the show in Rome. It was packed with what seemed like millions of people all shoving each other from one sight to the next. We also mused how much money went into that fountain ecery day, thanks Willie, now we know. We stood at the same elevated spot and watched this ritual. Thank God for a crowdless afternoon spent at the Palatine! But we experienced even funnier Italian rituals after the show at the bus stop - it seems to be the custom to wait for one bus come around the corner, with no sign telling its destination and to follow the bus running around the whole bus station, get on and be off to anywhere - we watched this for over one hour laughing and laughing until it was 2 o' clock in the mornig and then we decied to do likewise in order to get to Termini somehow! Great fun - and - by the way - BEST BEST BEST show on the tour! Great video footage during One and Streets - thumbs up Willi!

When you go to the hospital or see your family physician, there is an assumption that your doctor will, at the very least, "do no harm."
While medical professionals in America are among the best in the world, there are exceptions. Bad things can happen while receiving medical care, and medical errors can result in serious injury or death.

Case Types:
Medical Malpractice Case Specifics
Malpractice insurance is considered one of the major expenses of running a medical practice, and there are several cases of doctors' offices closing because of the high premiums.
This has called for caps on medical malpractice case awards, dating back to the Clinton administration.
While malpractice lawsuits are considered by some to be frivolous, in reality they help patients recover damages when something goes horribly wrong.
Definition of Medical Malpractice - when a health care professional is negligent by providing treatment which falls below accepted standards of care in the medical community and causes harm to the patient.
Whether or not an incident is considered "below the accepted standard of care in the medical community," is often the point of contention. Medical malpractice lawsuits need to establish what the expected standard of care is for a procedure. In a trial, both the plaintiff and the defendant would hire physicians as expert witnesses to testify that the act in question was, in fact, negligent.
Physician malpractice is also evaluated by the state medical board. If the medical board censures a doctor for his actions, it will go a long way to substantiating a claim of malpractice.
There are statutes of limitations on how long after the incident a patient can file a malpractice claim. Check your state laws carefully to confirm the length of time you have to file a lawsuit.
Medical malpractice cases are time consuming and costly. They require expert witnesses, pretrial discovery, depositions, subpoenas, and more. All this can take months, and cost many thousands of dollars.
Most medical malpractice cases are taken on contingency. There may be instances where it's difficult or impossible to find an attorney to take the case, even if it has merits. "Winability" is an important consideration in medical malpractice lawsuits.
Health Insurance and Malpractice
Many people have questions about how health insurance and malpractice affect each other. Is your health insurance company liable if they refer you to a doctor who commits malpractice? Must you pay back your insurance company if you win a settlement or court award? We answer these and many other questions in this section.
Treatment Denial
If a doctor refuses to provide medical treatment, is that malpractice? There are some instances where treatment denial is legally actionable, but in many cases it's not.
Thousands of patients are treated each day at hospitals across the nation. The vast majority receive top-level care, but there are a fair number of patients who suffer undue harm due to negligence of medical professionals working at hospitals.

During this trip, my brother and I were seated immediately when we strolled in around 10pm. We were pretty surprised that that place was pretty empty. Then our vacationing butts realized that it was a Monday night, a very solemn night to be izakaya'ing (yes, I made that into a verb!) The black and red minimalist look was anything but minimalist. Instead it just seemed like we were at a Chinese wedding, sans our mom and dad and a Lazy Susan.
I was craving sake after we (me, D, and Jer) went to a great Sake Tasting over Silver Lake Wine (I know, I'm late on that post). I've learned the basics to sake, well, I mean, I know what to expect when ordering a Junmai vs. a Junmai Daiginjo. Momomo's sake list is extensive and their sampler menu, which allowed me to choose ANY three sakes on their menu sounded perfect for my indecisive butt. I chose an unfiltered Yaegaki Daiginjo, Senshin Junmai Daiginjo, and a Masumi Nanago Junmai Daiginjo...all for $19.50. A good deal for the amount of premium sake at our table.
For an late-dinner snack, Jer and I had fry eyes and ordered pretty much anything fried. Karaage (fried chicken), teba-saki (chicken wings), and hamachi kama (yellowtail collar) are standard Izakaya must-order items.
Karaage was fine.
Teba-saki were good, but it ain't no Furaibo.
Hamachi kama was ok, but I can find better over at Tokkuri-Tei down the street.
Momomo is overall just ok. Go for their sake and karaage. If you go early enough, fill up at Leonard's beforehand. Follow this Honolulu eats recipe and I'll promise you a happy stomach and light bill.

Fairfax printers demand plant closure dates
PUBLISHED: 01 Oct 2012 14:42:00 | UPDATED: 01 Oct 2012 15:41:06PRINT EDITION: 01 Oct 2012
Workers from Fairfax's print division have given management a deadline of October 8 to answer questions over the timing of the closure of two major printing plants and job cuts.
Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU) members on Monday unanimously passed a resolution calling on Fairfax management to meet the union and workforce within the next week.
Fairfax in June announced 1900 redundancies across the company and the closure of print sites at Chullora in Sydney and Tullamarine in Melbourne.
AMWU assistant state secretary Leigh Diehm says the union is angry that three months later, they do not know when and how the redundancies will be rolled out.
Fairfax management has agreed to meet the union, Mr Diehm said.
"The company has put various offers on the table, but they are not properly engaging with people around things like timing, (and) how much redundancy," Mr Diehm said at a meeting of union members outside Fairfax's Melbourne office on Monday.
"There needs to be discussions around training. Where are they going to print the tabloid version of The Age? There's a lot of things that people need to know to plan their lives."
He said management has so far been attending meetings with the union, only to "tick a box".
"Fairfax, for some months now, has refused to consult (and) have proper consultation with their employees and their union," Mr Diehm said.
AMWU state secretary Steve Dargavel branded Fairfax's existing offer "ridiculous", but would not discuss the details of it.
"It's one thing to announce everybody is going to lose their jobs, it's another thing to work through with the workforce when and how that is going to occur," Mr Dargavel said.
A Fairfax spokesman said the company had been meeting with employees.
"Fairfax Media is very aware of its consultation obligations and has been actively meeting with employees and their representatives as required," the spokesman said.

For more than 25 years, the Providence Eating Disorders Treatment Program has helped patients recover from anorexia, bulimia and atypical eating disorders. Our treatment process begins with a thorough clinical assessment to address current and past eating practices and the physical and emotional consequences of these practices. This includes the evaluation of symptoms, such as depression, anxiety and substance use, as well as lifestyle factors, such as social support from family and friends. As patients approach or re-approach treatment, their readiness and the timing of treatment are also considered. Recovery is a process that requires persistence, courage and effective treatment resources.

City dissolves first TIF five years ahead of schedule
By By Jill Meier
Challenger editor
January 31. 2014 9:05AM
Brandons first ever Tax Increment Financing endeavor is now a thing of the past.
Tagged as TIF #1, the Brandon City Council Jan. 20 approved Resolution No. 03-14 to dissolve it. TIF #1, which supplied $250,000 to finance the construction of Railroad Avenue to allow for access to businesses in the Corson Industrial Park, was paid off five years earlier than scheduled. The tax abatement was scheduled to go through 2019, according to Assistant City Administrator Dennis Olson.
TIF #1 was initially set up to construct a road to service Wasau Supply Company and future businesses in the industrial park. In the years to follow, Integra Plastics, The Berquist Company and Tower Tech (now Marmen Energy) have all helped in paying down the $250,000 incentive.
Olson said all three of city TIF endeavors were written to collect those tax dollars once the TIF is paid off.
For that loan process, we get the jobs and everything else that comes with that. Were just delaying the taxes we get for awhile in exchange for the jobs now, Olson said. And its an incentive thats pretty common and painless.
TIF #2 provided a tax break for the Holiday Inn Express and Convention Center, while TIF #3 is tied to the construction of Hemlock Boulevard, which is another primary access road to the Corson Industrial Park.
With the dissolvment of TIF #1, City Administrator Bryan Read said TIF #3 will cash flow better.
In other business:
Noted the city will partner with Sioux Falls in the bid process for microsealing streets this summer.
The concensus is after last years project is that everybody is OK with microseal rather than chip seal, said City Engineer Jon Brown.
Ive only heard good comments and reports so microseals the way to go, Alderman Roger Brooks said.
The city has budgeted $200,000 for this years microseal project.
Mayor Larry Beesley appointed Brandon Valley High School sophomore Tiati Thelen to the Brandon Safety Committee.
Approved the second reading of Ordinance #509 to rezone property at 1800 W. Frontier St. from general business to light industrial.
Adjourned until 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 3.
What is Tax Increment Financing?
Tax increment financing or TIF is a public financing method that is used as a subsidy for redevelopment, infrastructure, and other community-improvement projects.
TIF is a method to use future gains in taxes to subsidize current improvements, which are projected to create the conditions for said gains. The completion of a public or private project often results in an increase in the value of surrounding real estate, which generates additional tax revenue. Sales-tax revenue may also increase, and jobs may be added, although these factors and their multipliers usually do not influence the structure of TIF.
When an increase in site value and private investment generates an increase in tax revenues, it is the tax increment. TIF dedicates tax increments within a certain defined district to finance the debt that is issued to pay for the project. TIF was designed to channel funding toward improvements in distressed, underdeveloped, or underutilized parts of a jurisdiction where development might otherwise not occur. TIF creates funding for public or private projects by borrowing against the future increase in these property-tax revenues.
Although the TIF method has been discontinued in the state it began in, California, thousands of TIF districts still currently operate nationwide in the United States.
With the exception of Wyoming, every state and the District of Columbia has enabled legislation for tax increment financing.
Brandon's first Tax Increment Financing endeavor was dissolved earlier this month. Challenger file photo

Top Nasdaq-Traded Short-Squeeze Plays
Updated from 10:52 a.m. EST
Many of the most heavily shorted stocks that trade on the Nasdaq hail from the financial sector; however, other sectors such as health care and manufacturing are also represented.
A heavily shorted stock can move sharply upward on any positive catalyst as short-sellers are forced to scramble to cover their bearish positions. A stock's short interest is measured by the short ratio, which represents the number of days it would take those shorting the stock to cover their bearish bets, based on recent trading volume.
Stockpickr has reviewed the stocks that trade on the Nasdaq and compiled a list -- Top Nasdaq Short-Squeeze Stocks for February -- of the stocks that exhibit the highest short ratios and lowest PEG, or price/earnings-to-growth, ratios. Generally, the lower the PEG, the better the value, with a PEG below 2 considered very favorable.
One of the Nasdaq stocks with a high short ratio is Houston Wire & Cable (HWCC - Get Report), which carries a short ratio of 21. This manufacturer of various types of electronic cables just a few weeks ago raised its dividend by a penny to 8.5 cents a share. It is slated to report earnings on March 17. The stock has a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 10, a PEG of 0.6 and pays a yield of 2.3%. Houston Wire showed up in the Stockpickr portfolio called Insider Purchases and Buybacks, a Feb. 26 portfolio that lists stocks with either a large insider purchase or stock buyback. Other stocks in the portfolio include IBM (IBM - Get Report), with a short ratio of 1.6, Bally Technologies (BYI - Get Report), with a 7.2 short ratio, and Lazard (LAZ - Get Report), which also has a 4.1 short ratio. Middleby (MIDD - Get Report) is another high-short-ratio stock with a low PEG ratio. The cooking equipment manufacturer last week posted an 8-cent per-share earnings beat for its fourth quarter. Its short ratio is 9.9. The stock has a P/E of 23 and a PEG of 0.8. Middleby is part of the portfolio of the Bjurman MicroCap Growth Fund, which invests in smaller cap stocks. It also holds Dynamic Materials (BOOM), which has a 6.1 short ratio, Andersons (ANDE - Get Report), with a 7.7 short ratio, and Air Methods (AIRM), which has a 12.8 ratio. Quality Systems (QSII - Get Report) is a stock with a short ratio of 15.7 and a PEG ratio of 1. This health-care information systems company beat earnings estimates when it reported fourth-quarter results a couple of weeks ago and issued robust sales growth outlook for 2008. The stock has a P/E of 23 and pays a yield of 3.1%. Quality shares are owned by the Turner Emerging Growth Fund, a five-star Morningstar-rated fund that also holds Deckers Outdoor (DECK), with a 3.2 short ratio, and RTI International Metals (RTI), with a 5.8 short ratio. For a complete list of the top stocks with the highest short ratios and lowest PEG ratios, check out the Top Short-Squeeze Stocks for February at Stockpickr.com. Please note that due to factors including low market capitalization and/or insufficient public float, we consider Houston Wire & Cable to be a small-cap stock. You should be aware that such stocks are subject to more risk than stocks of larger companies, including greater volatility, lower liquidity and less publicly available information, and that postings such as this one can have an effect on their stock prices.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors
