On Friday, Seattle Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon set the M's starting rotation for his first week as the team's manager while also announcing other roster moves ahead of the 2014 season opener at Anaheim on Monday.

What does $24 million a year get you? For Seattle Mariners' Robinson Cano, apparently quite a lot
Robinson Cano says he doesn't "care about the money." But he surely doesn't mind the fact the Mariners are paying him $240 million over the next 10 years to play baseball in Seattle.

The spot had been vacant in the wake of a finger injury […] [Read More]

Sharing love is the most fulfilling experience in life, but you need to be filled with love in order to have love to share. Learning to love yourself is what fills you with love.
While we will truly never know whether or not our financial gifts can help homeless people become housed, we can be sure of one thing -- giving to a homeless person always makes a difference for the better for us.
Motherhood is a clear path to compassion and I imagine fatherhood is no different. Setting limits and saying "no" to our children is compassionate -- it helps them organize and manage the world and motherhood provides many opportunities to say "no."
Jimmie Briggs stepped forward into the light yesterday, and brought all the souls in that room with him. We learned what is it to be a real man. What it is to be women. What it is to lead, to collaborate, to support.

The 'Humans of' movement feels to me like a vehicle for illustrating what all of us know deep down: that we're all humans of somewhere, we all have a story and we all have something of value to say, if we're given the chance to say it.
Chloe created a vegetarian club at her school and continues to improve it. She explains, 'you can't be a good activist if you can't learn from your mistakes.' Chloe's passion is helping other youth show their compassion for animals and for the planet.
Compassion arises from understanding of suffering. When compassion dominates the mind, suffering naturally fades away.
Compassion is a state to be cultivated. The ability to foster social bonds through aiding others, though taking effort in the short term, is what makes us, both as individuals and as societies, more resilient in the long term.

It is difficult to convey a sense of the magnificence of this work. Its attractive external appearance and its physical bulk—997 pages of two-column text plus 35 pages of a detailed four-column index—are matched by the high quality of its contents. The staggering quantity of physiological research now being published defies assimilation by a single person, and this fact is manifested in some existing textbooks in which allusions take the place of precise explanations and the reader finds presentations of theory instead of answers to practical questions. In the present book, 67 contributors have concentrated on the clinical application of their specialized knowledge. Particularly good examples of the result are seen in the concluding chapters on the physiological effects of poisons, of heat and cold, of ionizing radiations, and of electric currents, subjects that are too often slighted or altogether ignored.
The sequence of topics is genetics, metabolism, internal secretions,

I loved this film! I thought Hayden and Justin were amazing, but the one, small character that stood out to me was the bear cub, played by Maya Feltheimer. She had personality and can't wait to see her in more in the future.

writers taking a stand on the shit that's gone down in my country since 9/11/2001. I was really shocked at something so explicit - and it's not momentary or cursory; Kirk comes back to the theme in his address at Starfleet which ends the film.
Yeah, I enjoyed this aspect of the film. I thought it was explicit but not overbearing.
When Kirk screamed at Khan I actually thought he was going to say "You are a terrorist!" Using the word "criminal" instead appears to have been a deliberately alternate choice of phrasing.

Assembling these barstools wasn't difficult, but putting them together without a power screwdriver and a partner isn't a task I'd want to tackle. Once assembled, they're surprisingly solid, and I attribute at least part of that sturdiness to our two-person assembly method. Having one person hold the seat while the other secured it seemed particularly important. I definitely don't agree with the description when it calls the fabric a "deep mocha" color. I'd say "wet sand" is more accurate, just a little darker than what it seemed to be on my monitor. Having read other reviews, I bought these assuming the fabric wouldn't be dark as officially described, so I wasn't disappointed. Like at least one other reviewer, I wish a photo of the back of the stool were available with the description. Rather than the solid wood back I expected, a portion of the back is fabric -- sort of like the stool is made to look as if the frame is open and you're seeing the back of the seat cushion through the back of the chair. It's not an unattractive design, but it's not what I expected.
after reviewing many stools, noticed that workmanship at top of chair matched mother's china cabinet. soooo pleased with these barstools and happy that i bought them. i checked out different barstools from same manufacturer (without fabric back) and noted such good reviews. the same reviews follow this set of 2. the fabric is a nice neutral cafe-au-laix color, not the ligher tan that my vaio showed. and microfiber too=easy to clean. the instructions were a bit sketchy, but was able to perservere in a reasonable amount of time. hint: note that the 2 bottom side rungs need shorter rung on top. will purchase another pair
Not too dificult to assemble. these are unlike any barstools I have seen in stores and are a great value for the price.
I loved these stools but sent them back based on the color of the pads.. in the description and on th epicture they seemed Tan ish but when i got them they were bery camel yellowish and thats not what i was going for, however quality and everything else seemed solid and they seemed like a great deal.
I usually give 5 stars on products I purchase from this site because I am usually 100% satisfied. I am usually great at following directions but the instructions for this product were horrible. The four side, horizontal legs were not marked and made it difficult to decipher which went where (they all are bent and shaped differently). After struggling for more than an hour to assemble, the quality and color is superb!
Bought these chairs or breakfast far, i piece of advice i wanted to have these chairs stay steady for as long as possible so when we were putting it together , I got some wood glue and all wood to wood connections i used some wood glue- not too much just a drop, and left overnight to set. today about two weeks later the chairs are very steady and have a solid feel about it. ( glue was not provided but i went and purchased it another ****)
Not easy to put together, but they match with the chairs we already had in our dining room and look great in our living room. Glad we found these as they look great, especially for the price.
Received these barstools and both had damage on the top edges. Called customer service and they immediately had new chair backs sent....both were damaged again...and considering the fact that the manufacturer had to pull the replacements and repack (yes they were wrapped in bubble wrap but a piece of wood was chipped out) there's no excuse for the second set being sent damaged. The stools themselves are nice, but frustrating to have to wait for re-ship and they're still damaged.
Don't know if I would still have ordered this if I had known how difficult it would be to assemble. Unmarked pieces and poor instructions made it a long and painful experience. But the result is what I was looking for. Definitely a two person job...preferably two people not married or dating each other ;)
I ordered because they were fully assembled. Came quick and were packaged great. Very sturdy and modern looking. Look great at my kitchen island.

And the value thing is not really about opinion, so you disagreeing is meaningless. It's pretty much a fact that a player's draft position can impact their value. Now, please don't decide to go the immature route and say, "Oh so [worse player who was drafted higher] is worth mroe than [better played who was drafted lower]?" because all I'm saying is it's definitely a factor, but not the be-all end-all. Do you honestly think Kyle Turris was valued to be worth David Rundblad and a 2nd round pick because of his production at the NHL level? Serious question, please, if you're so sure of yourself, actually dispute my points rather than just dodging them.

Now that Carrier Ethernet 2.0 is all set for commercial deployment, you may now all brace yourselves for Carrier Ethernet 3.0. Well, not yet. Not for awhile. But it is coming. And according to Bob Metcalfe – the man who invented Ethernet in 1973 – Carrier Ethernet 3.0 will be driven by two factors: greater speeds and software-defined networking (SDN).(Read Full Article)

SIM card maker Gemalto apparently now holds the world's record for fastest security audit?
Subject: General Tech | February 26, 2015 - 01:02 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Gemalto, SIM, encryption, fud, security
In just under a week SIM card maker Gemalto claims to have done a complete security audit of their systems in 85 different countries and reports that "its office networks were compromised, the servers holding the SIM card encryption keys weren't." This is a record worthy of Guinness as most security audits take months or years to complete and the findings tend to discuss probabilities, not absolute certainties. As you might expect The Register and security experts everywhere are doubtful of the claims from a company that did not even know if was compromised less than a week ago that the UK based GCHQ and USA based NSA are unable to compromise your SIM cards encryption when they have the keys in hand. It has not been a good week for anyone who thinks about security.
"Six days ago Gemalto, the world's largest SIM card manufacturer, was told that back in 2010 it had been ransacked by NSA and GCHQ hackers. Today the company gave itself the all-clear: no encryption keys, used to secure phone calls from eavesdroppers, were stolen, it claims."

Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10022 Spotted
Subject: General Tech | February 26, 2015 - 07:00 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: windows 10, windows, microsoft
WZor, a group in Russia that somehow acquires many Windows leaks, has just published screenshots of Windows 10 Build 10022 and Windows Server Build 9926. As far as we can tell, not much has changed. We see neither an upgraded Cortana nor a look at the Spartan browser. The build is not labeled "Microsoft Confidential" though, which makes people believe that it is (or was) intended for public release -- maybe as early as this week.
Image Credit: WZor Twitter
Honestly, I do not see anything different from the provided screenshots apart from the incremented version number. It is possible that this build addresses back-end issues, leaving the major new features for BUILD in late April. Leaked notes (also by WZor) for build 10014, called an "Early Partner Drop", suggest that version was designed for hardware and software vendors. Perhaps the upcoming preview build is designed to give a platform for third-parties to develop updates ahead of Microsoft releasing the next (or second-next) big build?
Either way, it seems like we will get it very soon.
Intel Revamps Atom Branding, Next Generation Atoms Will Come in x3, x5, and x7 Tiers
Subject: General Tech | February 26, 2015 - 02:02 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: SoFIA, moorefield, Intel, Cherry Trail, branding, atom
Intel is updating its Atom processor branding to better communicate the expected performance and experience customers can expect from their Intel powered mobile device. In fact, the new branding specifies three tiers. Atom processors will soon come in Atom x3, x5, and x7 flavors. This branding scheme is similar to the Core processor branding using the i3, i5, and i7 labels.
The Atom x3, x5, and x7 chips are low power, efficient processors for battery powered devices and sit below the Core M series which in turn are below the Core i3, i5, and i7 processors. The following infographic shows off the new branding though Intel does not reveal any specific details about these new Atom chips (we will hopefully know more after Mobile World Congress). Of course, Atom x3 chips will reside in smartphones with x5 and x7 chips powering tablets and budget convertibles. The x7 brand represents the flagship processors of the Atom line.
The new branding will begin with the next generation of Atom chips which should include Cherry Trail, the 14nm successor to Bay Trail featuring four x86 Airmont cores and Gen 8 Intel graphics. Cherry Trail (Cherryview SoC) will be used in all manner of mobile devices from entry level 8"+ tablets to larger notebooks and convertibles. It appears that Intel will use Moorefield (a quad core 14nm refresh of Merrifield) through 2015 for smartphones though road maps seem to indicate that Intel's budget SoFIA SoC will also launch this year. SoFIA and Moorefield processors should fall under the Atom x3 brand with the higher powered and higher clocked Cherry Trail chips will use the Atom x5 and x7 monikers.
What are your thoughts on Intel's new Atom x3/x5/x7 brands?
Intel Sheds Its Remaining Stake In Imagination Technologies
Subject: General Tech | February 25, 2015 - 08:56 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: PowerVR, Intel, Imagination Technologies, igp, finance
Update: Currency exchange rates have been corrected. I'm sorry for any confusion!
Intel Foundation is selling off its remaining stake in UK-based Imagination Technologies (IMG.LN). According to JP Morgan, Intel is selling off 13.4 million shares (4.9% of Imagination Technologies) for 245 GBp each. Once all shares are sold, Intel will gross just north of $50.57 Million USD.
Imagination Technologies' PowerVR Rogue Series 6XT GPU is used in Apple's A8-series chips.
Intel first invested in Imagination Technologies back in October of 2006 in a deal to gain access to the company's PowerVR graphics IP portfolio. Since then, Intel has been slowly moving away from PowerVR graphics in favor of it's own internal HD graphics GPUs. (Further, Intel sold off 10% of its IMG.LN stake in June of last year.) Even Intel's low cost Atom line of SoCs has mostly moved to Intel GPUs with the exception of the mobile Merrifield and Moorefield" smartphone/tablet SoCs.
The expansion of Intel's own graphics IP combined with Imagination Technologies acquisition of MIPS are reportedly the "inevitable" reasons for the sale. According to The Guardian, industry analysts have speculated that, as it stands, Intel is a minor customer of Imagination Technologies at less than 5% for graphics (a licensing agreement signed this year doesn't rule out PowerVR graphics permanently despite the sale). Imagination Technologies still has a decent presence in the mobile (ARM-based) space with customers including Apple, MediaTek, Rockchip, Freescale, and Texas Instruments.
Currently, the company's stock price is sitting at 258.75 GBp (~$3.99 USD) which seems to indicate that the Intel sell off news was "inevitable" and was already priced in or simply does not have investors that concerned.
What do you think about the sale? Where does this leave Intel as far as graphics goes? Will we see Intel HD Graphics scale down to smartphones or will the company go with a PowerVR competitor? Would Intel really work with ARM's Mali, Qualcomm's Adreno, or Samsung's rumored custom GPU cores? On that note, an Intel powered smartphone with NVIDIA Tegra graphics would be amazing (hint, hint Intel!)

That's right, for those of you who pre-ordered Homeworld Remastered and for anyone that pops by Steam to purchase it, your productivity is in for a serious hit as you try to guide your fleet to a new homeworld and then defend it. For those lucky and old enough to have played through it originally you will find the look vastly improved and from what Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN and other reviewers have found you will also love the improved interface. For those who have not had the pleasure of playing through these two games before, the $33 investment is more than worth it, especially with improved multiplayer coming in the near future. Check out the videos and overview of the poster child for revamped legacy games here.
You will have to take a break this Saturday though, as the Fragging Frogs Virtual LAN party #9 kicks off at 10AM ET and will end when the last frog drops. You can check out the official thread in the forums right here to get all the information you need to participate. AMD and other mystery sponsors will be giving away prizes to those who log into and participate in the TeamSpeak channels; not to mention it is the best way to chat in game and in the general lobby. You can also check out the list of games that will be played as well as links to the mods and patches you will need, please download and install them before Saturday to maximize your playing time. See you there!
"In terms of strategy games which 'need' remastering, Homeworld was probably somewhere at the bottom of the list. But in terms of strategy games which really, truly benefit from remastering – well, this is a chart-topper."

Roll over Superfish, PrivDog is just as bad but doesn't come directly from Comodo
Subject: General Tech | February 25, 2015 - 12:36 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: SSL, security, PrivDog, idiots, fud, Comodo
This has been a bad week for the secure socket layer and the news just keeps getting worse. Comodo provides around one out of every three SSL certs currently in use as they have, until now, had a stirling reputation and were a trusted provider. It turns out that this reputation may not be deserved seeing as how their Internet Security 2014 product ships with an application called Adtrustmedia PrivDog, which is enabled by default. Not only does this app install a custom root CA certificate which intercepts connections to websites to be able to insert customized ads like SuperFish does it can also turn invalid HTTPS certificates into valid ones. That means that an attacker can use PrivDog to spoof your banks SSL cert, redirect you to a fake page and grab your credentials, while all the time your browser reports a valid and secure connection to the site.
The only good news from The Register's article is that this specific vulnerability is only present in PrivDog versions 188.8.131.52 and 18.104.22.168 and so has limited distribution. The fact that this indicates the entire SSL certificate model is broken and even those who create the certs to assure your security feel that inserting a man in the middle attack into their software does not contravene their entire reason for existing is incredibly depressing.
Update: The Register's article was originally based on research from Hanno Bock who referred to PrivDog as being distributed by Comodo. Comodo does not distribute the standalone desktop version of PrivDog only the browser extension application which was never vulnerable to the TLS interception.
"The US Department of Homeland Security's cyber-cops have slapped down PrivDog, an SSL tampering tool backed by, er, SSL certificate flogger Comodo.
Comodo, a global SSL authority, boasts a third of the HTTPS cert market, and is already in hot water for shipping PrivDog."

Vertical mice sometimes help those with issues with their cubital or carpal tunnels by relieving pressure due to repetitive arm and wrist movement. They have been around for a while but do not often get reviewed which is why it might be worth checking out eTeknix today. The Adesso E10 is wireless which is relatively uncommon un this type of mouse as is the DPI switch. In addition it has 4 buttons and a mouse wheel so it could still serve as a gaming mouse, at least for right handed gamers who prefer this style of mouse. Check it out if your mousing fingers get numb while you are sitting at your computer.

Your aggregate battery consumption isn't Li-On about your location
Subject: General Tech | February 24, 2015 - 12:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: fud, security, smartphone
Tracking your smartphones location via aggregate battery usage is not the most efficient or accurate method but it can be done and Samsung (and others) have not provided a switch which makes that particular data private. Researchers have shown that by tracking the battery drain of the 3G cellular radio on the battery one can determine distance from the cellular base station the phone is connected to and a coarse location based on interference environmental factors such as buildings which partially block the signal. It is only a very coarse locator but does give better information than just the base station the phone is connected to and as we are creatures of habit it allows tracking normal patterns of movement. This is nowhere near as accurate as GPS tracking and does require a bit of work to pull off but as battery usage and levels are sent by the phone in the clear with no method of preventing that it should cause some privacy concerns for users. You can read the research paper (in PDF) by following the link from The Inquirer.
"SCIENTISTS have warned of a new smartphone risk after discovering that battery power can be used to track a person's movements."

Seemingly Out of Spec AC Cables Could Be a Fire Hazard
Subject: General Tech | February 23, 2015 - 03:31 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Vantec, c13
I say "seemingly out of spec" because I am not an electrician, and this requires more understanding of wire classifications than I possess. Regardless, we found a story a little while ago about devices that ship with power cables that are labeled for voltages and amperages that are significantly lower than what they are capable of carrying.
My cable
The minimum requirement for cables with a C13 connector is American 18 gauge (AWG), and they must be able to carry 10 amps. I own the device from the blog posting, like many others at PC Perspective. Again, the device itself (minus the cord that plugs it into the wall) is perfectly fine. The allegation is that the power cord (that goes between the wall and the transformer power brick) cannot carry its full, labeled wattage. The head claims that it can carry 250V at 10A, which is 2500W.
My cable, close up.
We cut open the insides of the cable to see what gauge wire was used, and we were able to remove the insulation with an 18 gauge wire stripper. This is where my lack of applied electrical skills fail me. The power cable feels as flimsy as a quarter-inch audio cable, but I am not qualified to measure the actual internal wires' thickness. It might meet the minimum (18 AWG) requirements, or it might just be thick insulation. I wouldn't trust it, especially not at hundreds or thousands of watts. The blog post author apparently tested their own cable under load, and they claim that it started to melt at 2.6A 123V (320W).
The blog author's wire vs a standard cable's wire. It's hard to tell how thin the Vantec one is, because the standard cable was twisted.
Image Credit: Fry's Acid Test
Now, to power a single hard drive and USB controller, you are not going to be drawing those hundreds or thousands of watts from the wall. The main concern is if you swap cables around with other devices. For instance, if that cable would be attached to a high-end gaming desktop, then it could easily see wattages in that range that are sustained for most of a play session, or even higher.
So I guess the takeaway from this is do not trust every power cables that you receive. Make sure your high-power devices are using the cable that came with them, or one from a vendor that you trust. Just because it says it can handle any given load, does not mean that it can.
Just wait, blacklisting dangerous root certificates will lead to a legal battle
Subject: General Tech | February 23, 2015 - 01:35 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: superfish, mozilla, komodia, security
Firefox can remove any threat that Superfish presents with a simple step and 24 hours; indeed they could prevent any similar issue using a questionable or downright poisonous SSL Certificate simply by blacklisting them. They specifically quote the ability of OneCRL to block even obfuscated certs before the Network Security Services level if the certs are properly recorded on the blacklist in this Register article. This would lead to a much more secure web, requiring attackers to invest significantly more effort when attempting to create fake or dangerous SSL certs. There is a flip side to this, for there are those who may attempt to have valid certs added to the Blacklist and so there must be a way of policing the list and a way to remove certs which should not be on the list due to being placed there in error or because of a change in the software associated with that certificate. It is also likely that there will be court cases attempting to have the blacklist removed if it does come into being as Superfish is not the only business out there whose business model requires phishing or at least a way around proper SSL certification and best practices which will no longer be viable if we are allowed to block their mutant SSL certs.
"Firefox-maker Mozilla may neuter the likes of Superfish by blacklisting dangerous root certificates revealed less than a week ago to be used in Lenovo laptops."

Scuderia Ferrari from Ferrari was introduced in 2010. The perfumer of this fragrance is Karine Dubreuil. The flacon of Scuderia Ferrari was created by Thierry De Baschmakoff. The design depicts the style of the house with discreet details which highlight a sporty theme.
This masculine fragrance, full of passion, emotions and determination was created for dynamic men who find themselves on the fast roads of life. This crisp woody fragrance is recommended for casual wear.
The fragrance opens with the notes of Sicilian lemon, enhanced with green mandarin, lavender and cold mint. The heart blooms with intense aromas of Moroccan rosemary and pepper along with Egyptian geranium and black tea. The base offers woody notes of Lebanese cedar and Guaiac wood. Sensual musk accentuates the masculine character and Tonka bean and amber add their warm nuances.

Were on the 8th floor this time. Im posting this right after watching Holiday Wishes from our balcony, which is always a blast! We checked in on Saturday and had a dinner at the Wave and just relaxed at the resort today. Tonight, we had a great meal at the California Grill. Tomorrow morning, its off to the Magic Kingdom. This trip, we also have dinner ADRs for Flying Fish Café, Artist Point, Jiko, and Citricos (for dinner), and breakfast ADRs at Crystal Palace, Kouzzina, and The Wave. Of course, there is the Merry Member Mixer on Tuesday at Epcot, and the DVC Annual Meeting on Thursday here at the Contemporary. As always, it will be a relaxing vacation!

This proposal will contribute to develop integrative decision-support tools that will provide decision-makers information for reductions in nutrient inputs to estuaries in the coastal zone by 1) facilitating regional integration of resources, knowledge and expertise for assessment of water quality and nutrient data at local and regional scales; 2) increasing states' capacity to identify current nutrient concentration baselines; 3) determining effects stressors (e.g., nutrients, total suspended solids, colored dissolved organic matter) with newly established methodology that uses NASA Earth science data products (remotely-sensed data); and 4) supporting the Gulf of Mexico Alliance Regional Partnership's goal of establishing nutrient criteria for Gulf coastal ecosystems. These activities will enhance the ability of state partners to establish nutrient criteria for coastal and estuarine waters.

A Milwaukee man said he doesn't know what came over him when he grabbed a teenager's head and forced it toward a trash bin after she failed to recycle a bottle April 18, according to a city of Brookfield police report.
According to the report:
The 76-year-old man confronted a 13-year-old girl in the food court at Brookfield Square Mall after he saw her toss a glass bottle into a garbage can just before 1 p.m.
The girl told officers that the man grabbed the back of her head and forced her toward the trash can, telling her to dig it out so it could be recycled.
She also said he asked her where she went to school before leaving the food court.
Police were called and arrested the man at a bus stop outside the mall.
Following his arrest, the man was "apologetic" and said he didn't know what had come over him.
After considering citing the man for battery, an officer wrote him a ticket for disorderly conduct because the teen was uninjured in the confrontation.

Procrastination {Strength} Workouts
I'm trying to find my motivation to get back into running. I'm still working on my Best Damn Race recap, but the low motivation goes all the way there. I'll spoil it by sharing that it wasn't my best race. I did enjoy the finish and I was able to run the entire thing without stopping/walking – but I also haven't felt the need to lace up my sneakers and "get revenge" like I have in the past. Running ruts suck.
I've have been really excited about some of the new workouts I've been testing out recently though – so there that — and I thought I would share. I admit, I'm kind of a wuss when I comes to trying out new things, especially if they are complex, so you'll note that these workout are simple.
The first one is a Kettlebell workout. I love Kettlebells and I've been going to the gym on Friday after work specifically to use them (because like 4 people are there – opposed to 40 – and we only have one set of KBs). I wish my gym had a KB class. They are so fun and also kick your ass.
Some helpful videos:
- Kettle Bell Swings
- Lunge Press
- Slingshot
- Single Arm Floor Chest Press
- Russian Twist <- is this man floating? lol
- Goblet Squat
- High Pulls
- Clean and Press
The second workout is a one I do when I don't have a lot of time, but I want to do something intense.
I'm proud to say that I am able to do 10 of those 20 pushups (each rep) as REAL pushups. I also finally taught (conditioned?) myself how to do a real burpee. For the longest time I was doing modified ones because I found it incredibly difficult to jump out (I would step out and then jump back in). I think it's because my legs take up 75% of my body. So while I have been totally sucking on the running front, I have been getting stronger in other ways, I suppose.
Still, I miss wanting to and enjoying running. Please tell me it will come back some day…
Chicago Marathon – Running for Team RMHC
I'm not running the Chicago Marathon this year (*sniff*), but if I was going to do it (I'm not gonna lie — I'm SO TEMPTED!) I would without a single doubt run for Ronald McDonald House Charities once again. Why Team RMHC? Because the obvious – why not? I'll give you a few reasons: *…
It's Hard To Get Faster… When You Don't Run
