A really good trainer down the road from me Breeds, trains and breaks and shows her horses and other peoples horses. She breaks all her colts and fillies at age 2. I have seen a lot of horses on Kijiji in Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia (Only places I look) that are already broke to ride and some even barrel racing, reining and doing cowy stuff. There was one filly, a quarter horse that was 2, just turned 3 and was already in Barrel racing competitions.
I was thinking, a horse has no be sound and physically and mentally ready to be broke. So I have made the decision to, in the spring or early summer, get the vet out and get Breeze in for an Exam, if her teeth are good, her knees are closed, and her back and everywhere else is good, and the vet says its fine, I am going to put a few rides on her. I will break her in mid summer if everything if fine. If not, I will wait until the summer of 2014 to have another vet check to see if she is ready then.
I believe it is okay to break at 2 IF the horse is physically and mentally ready. I believe that Breeze is becoming mentally ready and we will be working on groundwork until it comes time to break, and if I do break Breeze, I will only ride her enough for her to learn, but not over doing it.
What are your thoughts on breaking at 2 years old? By Summer Breeze will be close to 3 years of age, so over 2 and a half years old.

Rajon Rondo's recycled recovery repartee
|10.24.13 at 11:29 am ET
Perhaps you've heard this one from Rajon Rondo before: "I'll be returning in the 2013-14 season."
It's the exact line the Celtics point guard used on Media Day last month to describe his timeline for returning from ACL surgery: "The 2013-2014 season. Probably some time in the winter. Maybe the fall. You just never know."
And pretty much the same line a straight-faced Rondo delivered to a Chinese reporter during the unveiling of his new Anta shoe two weeks ago: "I'm right on schedule. I will return this year." Good times.
Well, he used it again during an impromptu press conference following the C's preseason upset of the Nets bench. Rondo should go on the road with this shtick. Reporters in New York, Philadelphia, Toronto and beyond will surely get a kick out of it, too. Then again, it might grow tiresome if he doesn't have new material come February.
So, let's all just agree there's no timetable for Rondo's return. He'll come back when he's ready, and he's not, although he did apparently get fitted for his first knee brace in preparation of his first contact during practice.
In the meantime, enjoy some more of Rondo's comedy stylings.

Idea for Reman Set
I think the reman prototype projectile is a cool idea, but maybe a little half baked.
For the reman set I suggest they change it so the two piece buff is a better version of the covariant capacitance cell, make it worth our time. But the three piece ability should be an active ability like maco or omega. Except you should be able to fire 3 heavy plasma torps, just like the d'deridex! Seems to me this would bring it more in line with the other sets, including the breen and the jem hadar.

The jury began with 200 entries, keeping 61 from that total in the first round, and finished a second round with 21 before ultimately choosing the 11 projects featured on the following pages. The jurors were Tom Phifer, FAIA, of Thomas Phifer and Partners in New York; Edward Bosley, an art historian on the faculty of the University of Southern California's School of Architecture and director of the Gamble House in Pasadena; and Adèle Naudé Santos, FAIA, dean of MIT's School of Architecture and Planning and a principal of Santos Prescott and Associ- ates in San Francisco. During the first round, there was an easy consensus among the trio about which projects were to be eliminated. In the second round, indi- vidual preferences began to emerge as jurors looked more closely at the remaining entries. There were deciding factors besides excellence in architectural design that swayed the jurors. For instance, after they wrapped up their work in the mid-afternoon, Bosley and Santos suggested that better photography and more rigorous editing of slide shows might have improved the chances of some entries: "In spite of our sometimes brutal and flippant remarks, there are a lot of beautiful projects in this contest." Bosley said, adding, "There's a tremendous amount of talent and effort that's gone into all these projects. [However] it's quite possible that there are some things that we missed about the projects that rose almost to the top, that didn't get com- municated for whatever reason in the material." Such thoughtful observations from jurors attest to the seriousness with which they approached their task. lawrence Connolly, aIa, is a Texas Architect contributing editor. two thousand ten Design AwArDs

The Senate passed an amended version of a stopgap spending bill Sept. 27 that would fund federal government operations through Nov. 15, discarding a House provision that would strip funding for implementation of the 2010 health care law.
The House version would fund government operations through Dec. 15.
It remains now for the House of Representatives to vote on the measure, and members are expected to work through the weekend. In public comments, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) has indicated an unwillingness to pass a continuing resolution that includes funds for the health care law. If a bill isn't passed and signed into law before the start of the new fiscal year, Oct. 1, a partial government shutdown will occur.
Boehner and Republican leaders in the House are looking to pass a measure without having to turn to the chamber's Democrats for support. This puts the leadership in the bind of having to come up with a deal that the Senate can support while not alienating their own party's conservatives, who are intent on blocking the health care overhaul's scheduled Oct. 1 rollout of the . The law, which relies on mandatory funds, will launch even if the government has to close some operations because of a lapse in discretionary appropriations.
The Senate passed the CR along party lines 54-44, after a bipartisan vote of 79-19 to end debate on the House version.
"Far too many Republicans joined Harry Reid in giving the Democrats the ability to fund Obamacare," said Texas Republican Ted Cruz. "When the bill comes back to the Senate, when the House yet again stands for principle and fights for the American people, I very much hope that Senate Republicans will rise to the challenge"
More than half of Senate Republicans voted to end debate, with some chirping at Cruz for pursuing what they considered counterproductive tactics. In an unusually pointed exchange on the Senate floor, Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) accused Cruz and Utah Republican Mike Lee of holding up a Senate vote for the sake of publicity. "It just doesn't seem to me that that's in our nation's interest. Nor is it, candidly, in the interest of those who want to see good policy on the conservative side," Corker said.
A few lines of possible compromise have begun to emerge. The House could return a continuing resolution to the Senate that eliminates the tax on medical devices that is part of the 2010 law, which even Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who supported the enactment of the tax, called "stupid" this week. The House could also eliminate an exception for lawmakers and staff carved out by the Office of Personnel Management that allows congressional offices to subsidize health insurance premiums for insurance bought on exchanges. Some Republicans have suggested passing a "clean" continuing resolution and shifting the fight over defunding or delaying the health care law to the coming debate on extending the debt ceiling.
Amid the din of disagreement over the health care law, Democrats and Republicans in both chambers agreed to preserve a provision in the continuing resolution designed to help keep two key satellite programs at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from falling behind schedule, and limiting as much as possible an anticipated gap in weather satellite coverage.

Toshiba LED8/15/2012
Hooked it up right out of the box, initial set was easy and has an excellent picture.
Horrible WIFI4/23/2011
Don't buy this product. I have wasted my money and time to set this up. Adapter doesn't work at all. I have called customer service several times and each time the call was answered by someone in Japan. Each time they said someone will call within an hour to resolve the issue, but no one never returned my call as of now. Useless customer service and you will be stuck with this usual thing so I have decided to not to buy Toshiba products anymore in my life.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Great 55" Edge-Lit TV3/9/2011
I think this is a very good value for a 55"-class edge-lit LCD TV. The default "movie" mode is pretty close to what I want. So far I've only tested it with the built-in Netflix support, but that has worked very well. I use it via a wired ethernet connection. You have to give it 30 seconds or so from power-up for it to get an IP address - so 'widgets' is not available instantly from power on. I assume other net-enabled sets will have this issue. Despite being 'only' edge-lit, the set produces very deep blacks. The screen is glossy, yet has some sort of filter that does a very good job of absorbing ambient light. You can see dim reflections in a daytime room but they aren't bothersome. There is some tonality shift in far off-angle viewing. Who cares. It looks GREAT straight on, and at 55" where are you going to sit off-angle unless your room is huge. If you give the set a black signal in a dark room you will see some minor light leaking in the corners and some very faint 'clouds'. You MIGHT also see the light leaks during very dark scenes when there are letter box bars, since they are absolutely black. Otherwise you will never notice it. Forget it. The picture is great. The speakers are truly bad. But a set like this is meant to be put through a sound system. The remote is pretty good. I would have preferred backlit buttons over glow-in-the-dark buttons. Overall, this is a great TV for the money.2 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Good but not perfect3/4/2011
For $1100ish it's hard to beat this TV. HD pictures are crisp and clear. Hookup was a snap and I've no HDMI compatibility issues. The internal speaks are garbage but I knew that going in - I already have a home theater receiver and sound system so it didn't matter to me. There are 2 things that I've run into that are annoying: 1) there is a lighting effect present in each corner of the TV that can be seen when the screen is black or has a dark picture; 2) the auto dimming doesn't seem to work very well - this is evidenced by movies having a kind of "soap opera" look to them (it's hard to describe, but you'll definitely notice it). Still for the price I'm a happy camper.

Popular media coverage of "healthcare reform" has focused largely on how individual consumers might be affected. Less attention has been given to what the legislation means for businesses — and not just businesses in healthcare-related industries. The 2010 Healthcare Reform Act (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act1 or PPACA), in conjunction with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act2 ("Reconciliation Act") contains significant tax and employee benefit changes. Many of these provisions are phased in over several years, so their full impact is yet to be felt. This article examines a few of the key provisions contained in this new legislation.
I. Tax Changes
The tax changes found in the new legislation focus on the universal health insurance coverage mandate and revenue raisers, some health-related and others not. Certain changes are expected to have the greatest impact.
A. Beginning in 2011
Beginning in 2011, a fee will be levied against drug manufacturers and importers based on market share. The total fee assessed for 2011 will be $2.5 billion and will gradually increase until it peaks in 2018 at $4.1 billion. In 2019, the fee will decrease to $2.8 billion and will remain constant thereafter.3

The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins offense received a significant boost hours before Wednesday's AHL trade deadline expired at 3 p.m.
The Penguins obtained Derek Nesbitt from the Peoria Rivermen in exhange for future considerations.
Nesbitt, 30, led the Rivermen this season with 26 goals, eight power play tallies and was second in points with 47 in 66 games. He has scored more than 20 goals in each of the last two seasons and provides the Penguins with another shooter to go along with the likes of Chad Kolarik and Trevor Smith.
Head coach John Hynes said the trade wasn't made to fill a need on the team.
"When you have the chance to get a player of this caliber, you do it," Hynes said. "We're adding a very high-character guy who can skate and has had very good production at the AHL level.
In seven pro seasons, Nesbitt has appeared in 253 AHL games with Rockford, Manitoba, San Antonio and Peoria. For his career he has 66 goals, 156 points and 44 penalty minutes.
The Penguins appear to be getting Nesbitt at the perfect time. He is coming off his hottest month of the season in March with seven goals and 12 points in 15 games.
Nesbitt, who wasn't drafted, began his AHL career on a one year contract with Rockford after working his way up from the ECHL. He was signed to a professional tryout agreement by Peoria on Nov. 11, 2010 and was signed to an AHL contract a month later.
The fact that Nesbitt had to earn his way to the AHL appealed to Hynes.
"He's worked for everything he's gotten and it tells you a lot about what's inside a person and a player when nothing's handed to them," Hynes said. "His track record speaks volumes about his ability, drive and heart."
Nesbitt ranks tenth in the league in goal scorers and, along with Kolarik, who is eighth with 28 goals, gives the Penguins two players in the top 10 among goal producers.
Nesbitt won't play in this weekend's games in St. John's, but will join the team early next week, Hynes said. As far as what line Nesbitt will play on, Hynes hasn't yet made that decision.
"Right now for us it's about the ability to add a high-character player with the ability to score," Hynes said. "He has the drive and passion to get to the NHL, and that's the type of player we want here."

Saudi Wildlife Authority gifts two African lions and two cheetahs to the Nehru Zoo
The Nehru Zoo on Monday received two African lions and two cheetahs as a gift from the Saudi Wildlife Authority, Saudi Arabia.
The lions and cheetahs, which were brought in a cargo flight of the Saudi Airlines to the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Shamshabad, on Monday morning, were shifted to the quarantine centre at the zoo.
"The animals will have to complete a one-month mandatory quarantine period, after which we will shift them to visitors' areas for display," said P. Mallikarjuna Rao, Director of Zoological Parks.A promise
During the CoP-11 summit in the city in October 2012, the president and chairman of the Saudi Wildlife Authority, Prince Bandar Bin Saud Bin Mohammad Al Saud, had promised to gift the animals to the zoo. The animals are aged about 18 months. The pairs were brought by scientists Rami Almanjumi and Faisal Sulaimani, who work at the National Wildlife Research centre, Jeddah.

Make sure to look at your crib brand. All Simplicity Brand cribs are recalled. I got my crib in 2008 for DD and it is now recalled. I am taking it back to Target and they said they will give me full value towards a new crib. Which is great, cause my new DD will be sharing rooms with DD1 and they will have matching furniture. :) But definetly make sure you take your crib back and exchange it. My friend even bought one off of Craigslist and is able to take it back. No receipt required!

Chargers tackle eyes a comeback
Henderson has lost more than 50 pounds since April arrival
"People say, 'Well, you know, he got out of shape.' OK. I understand that. I'm a man. I'm going to take full responsibility for that. And at the same time, I take responsibility for losing all that weight and getting that opportunity to get looked at, to come back. Like I said, I can't blame nobody but myself. Now, I'm working hard."
Since signing a one-year deal with the Chargers, Henderson has been working out, often three to four times a day, with heavy cardio.
On the field, Henderson, who has 28 career starts, grades himself at a "C" right now. During his nine structured weeks with the Chargers, he took every second-string rep behind starter Jared Gaither at left tackle.
Offensive line coach Hal Hunter said Henderson, understandably, looked a "little bit rusty" after a year out of the league, "but he's headed in the right direction."
The next step is training camp.
Veterans report on July 25. The first full-squad practice is the 26th.
"He's an athletic guy," coach Norv Turner said, "and he's earned the right to compete for a spot, whether it's the backup tackle spot or a swing tackle spot. He's earned that right. He's done what we've asked him to do. He should be very proud of himself."
A year ago, the scale tipped against Henderson.
Most fans gave up on him. Some friends did, too.
But the Chargers called, offering a contract and a second chance. Henderson, grinning with gold, says he won't forget it.
"I owe them," Henderson said. "Say we're at a restaurant or something, and the Chargers get into a fight and they need someone to get 'em, they can send me. I'm going to fight for them."

GRASP Special Seminar: Adam Spiers, Yale University, "Haptics Research In Art And Medicine"
Presenter: Adam Spiers (Homepage)
Event Dates:
Monday August 11, 2014 from 1:30pm to 2:30pm
* Alternate Location: Levine 307*
In this talk I will cover two quite different areas of research that are linked by the common theme of haptics.
First, I will describe some medical haptics research I recently completed at the Bristol Robotics Laboratory (UK). Here we investigated various haptic concepts in relation to manual and tele-operated (robotic) minimally invasive surgery, leading to several observations and technical developments. Some highlights include the development of a dexterous gripper for palpation, a deformable fingertip sensor and multi-modal haptic feedback systems featuring fingertip deformation and skin stretch.
The second part of the talk relates to the development of haptic navigation devices for use in cultural spaces. An ongoing collaboration with a London based visually impaired theatre group and the Open University, the first iteration of this work led to the 'Haptic Lotus' device in 2010. This handheld device expanded as blind and sighted audience members approached specific areas in an immersive art installation. In this talk I will explain the motivation behind our work and the developments we hope to achieve with our most recent set of funding for a new project, 'Flatland'.
Presenter's Biography:
Ad Spiers is a postdoctoral researcher in Yale University's Grab lab. He is currently developing haptic navigation devices and investigating how upper limb amputees use their prosthetics in daily life. In his previous role (Bristol robotics laboratory, UK) Ad worked with NHS (National Health Service) surgeons to investigate benefits and methods of enabling haptic feedback in tele-operated surgery and training simulators. His PhD, obtained from Bristol University, was in the real-time synthesis of human-like reaching movements for robot manipulators.
In addition to academic research, Ad has been involved in various creative technology projects featuring robotics and haptics. This led to a (now long distance) invited residence at the Pervasive Media Studio creative technology hub in the UK. Previous work has included groups of animatronic origami creatures and a mind controlled beer pouring robot. His work has been exhibited in galleries and music festivals, reaching a wide and varied audience. His current haptics work continues his ongoing collaboration with visually impaired artists looking to create new and accessible forms of cultural experience.

The Bodhi Surf Ocean Guardian Journey is the story of our collective efforts and actions to become a better, more socio-environmentally responsible company. It is the umbrella for all of our Corporate Social and Environmental Responsibility Initiatives — perhaps more commonly referred to as our "sustainability measures".
Why We Do It
At Bodhi Surf one of our goals is to transmit the love and awareness we have for nature, and particularly for our marine ecosystem because as surfers, we spend a lot of time in the ocean – it is like our second home. We visit the ocean to enjoy ourselves, to re-energize our bodies, to clear our minds. And certainly not to be overlooked, as humans, we depend greatly on the services marine ecosystems provide.
It is our hope that through surfing, yoga, and the travel experience that Bodhi Surf is able to provide, our guests will leave with a closer connection to our oceans and a greater interest in learning how each one of us can help care for and improve the health of our marine ecosystem – thus beginning their own Ocean Guardian Journey!
We are dedicated to supporting and carrying out specific programs that contribute to and promote the preservation of our oceans. These programs include the following:
Bodhi Surf Travelers' Philanthropy Program
Bodhi Surf donates a portion of the price of each vacation package to the operations of locally-based non-profits whose work impacts local marine conservation and youth development.
Service and Surf Saturdays
This program consists of regular beach clean-ups co-organized by Bodhi Surf along with a few other local organizations and held at Playa Colonia within the Marino Ballena National Park. The beach clean-ups are geared towards promoting environmental awareness and education among local youth.
Yoga for the Community
This Bodhi Surf-run program aims to provide community members an opportunity to explore the benefits of yoga through an exchange of yoga classes for community re-investment (community service) hours.
Ocean Guardian Pledge
An awareness campaign focused on spreading information and motivating individuals towards a change away from high-impact action.
Blue Marble – Blue Mind
Bodhi Surf School is a participant of the Blue Marble Project, an idea based on the work of biologist Wallace J. Nichols. Our aim is to promote his work, which in essence states that we as humans love and benefit greatly from the ocean, therefore we must work hard and work together to ensure its well-being.
Start Your Ocean Guardian Journey
Just as we have been inspired by a great many individuals and organizations to kick off our Ocean Guardian Journey, one of our goals as a business is to help influence others to start their own Ocean Guardian Journeys. The more people who become involved in actively caring for the planet and our marine environment, the better chance we will all have at making a positive change and turning around the damage that's already been done.
- Do you enjoy spending time at the beach?
- Do you like playing in the ocean?
- Do you have a fond memory of visiting a coastline?
If you answered 'Yes' to any of the above then we strongly urge you to join us on this odyssey and start your own Ocean Guardian Journey today!
It doesn't matter if you're not a surfer.
It doesn't matter if you've never surfed.
It doesn't matter if you live far, far away from the ocean itself.
It doesn't matter if you've never been part of the Bodhi Surf experience.
Don't wait any longer, our oceans need YOUR help – start your journey!
What's In It For You
We need the marine ecosystem: it provides us as humans with services that are crucial for our well-being and survival as a species. These services include:
- Provisioning Services: food and water
- Regulating Services: regulation of climate
- Cultural Services: recreational and spiritual
- Supporting Services: soil formation and photosynthesis
(Source: http://www.eoearth.org/view/article/154472/)
How You Can Get Involved
Ocean Guardian Pledge
Our Ocean Guardian Pledge is a commitment that anyone can take to help reduce their impact and protect the ocean. We firmly believe in the 6 Rs: Refuse, Repaire, Reduce, Reuse, Rethink, Recycle, but for those who need a little help, our pledge highlights 10 concrete actions that one can take on a regular basis. And remember, it is together that we will have the greatest impact of all!
Travelers' Philanthropy Program
When you come on a Bodhi Session or vacation with us, 2% of what you pay goes back to our community via our Travelers' Philanthropy Program. In addition, you get to choose between one of three local organizations to support: Geoporter, a non-profit that uses GPS and GIS technology to come up with solutions for local issues; Fundacion KETO, a Costa Rican marine conservation NGO; or Forjando Alas, our local after school program that promotes education and enrichment for kids in our area. You can also donate additionally or on your own.
My Ocean Guardian Journey Contest
The annual My Ocean Guardian Journey Contest is a place for people to showcase their innovation in marine conservation and environmental protection. To celebrate these individuals and their awesome actions and ideas, we give away a number of very cool prizes including a Bodhi Surf & Yoga Vacation!

There was a story line from the 90's where Tony's armour gains sentience and begins making decisions for itself even who to target. We see in the trailer Tony mentioning that he can't sleep and that he has a new headset interface, so I'm guessing this is a homage to that story line. He also suffers a heart attack in that story IIRC. I'm assuming this is where he will go to Maya Hensen and ask for her help in developing the Extremis technology. Just my own guess though. As for the symbol tattoo on the back of his neck, it doesn't ring any bells...it could be his own personal clan symbol (that's just a guess). I'd need to see it blown up to really be able to tell.

Our best 5K effort results from a combination of stamina and speed. And it just so happens that we have a type of muscle fiber that's perfectly suited to this task. Fast-twitch type IIa muscle fiber provides much of the "speed" associated with fast-twitch type IIx (sprinter) fiber, but it also has the capacity to function aerobically.
Bingo! This combination allows us to run faster longer – the definition of 5K racing.
The best way to train this intermediate fast-twitch fiber is to run long hill repeats. This has nothing to do with whether we'll be racing on hills, flats, roads, or the track. Long hill repeats make us faster – period.
The first step is to find a hill that's not too steep and not too flat. The incline should be challenging, but it shouldn't chop our stride or require mountain climbing gear. I prefer about a 6 percent grade. This increases the workload for each stride while allowing us to maintain full range of motion.
We use our watches to time the first hill repeat of each week's session. Let's say our rep for that week is supposed to last 60 seconds. We stop running as soon as a minute is up. That's our finish line. We won't have to time the rest of our repetitions, allowing us to focus on correct effort and form. Recovery between reps is four to five minutes, including our jog back down the hill and some walking at the bottom. Less recovery won't give us a better workout, but it will increase our risk of injury and burnout. Remember that we're targeting a specific muscle fiber type that is recruited during a specific range of effort. Too little recovery forces us to recruit the other type of fast-twitch fiber and/or to burn through our muscle glycogen stores.
The correct effort level for each repetition varies depending on its length. As with our 5K-specific workout, the guiding principle is to finish our long hill repeat session with enough energy remaining to run one or two more reps. We want to finish with gas in the tank.
This is typical progression for long hill repeat sessions:
- 8 x 30 seconds
- 6 x 60 seconds
- 8 x 60 seconds
- 4 x 90 seconds
- 6 x 90 seconds
Long hill repeats should be run two to three times a month until we've accumulated six to eight sessions. My preference is to alternate hill repeats with technique drills on a weekly basis. If you're already in fairly good shape, you can begin incorporating these reps at the outset of your 5K program. If you're a beginner, wait three to four weeks. Never do long hill repeats the week of a race. Also, on weeks that don't include hill reps or a race, it's beneficial to incorporate a few hills into our long runs. This reinforces the gains we've made.
A 5K puzzle isn't complete without pieces obtained from training at efforts above and below our 5K goal pace.
Training faster than goal pace serves two purposes. Physiologically, it makes us efficient at paces that might be required in the race (at the start, during surges, and for our finishing kick). Psychologically, it makes our actual 5K pace feel "slow" – our race pace feels relaxed since it's less than 100 percent of the effort we've trained to run.
Two faster workouts are:
- Track: 16 x 200m at 3K effort, with 200m jog recovery
- Park or Trail Fartlek: 8-10 x 30-to 90-second surges at >3K effort, with jogging recovery equal in time to each surge
3K effort isn't meant to imply an exact pace; rather, the point is to run harder than 5K effort but not quite as hard as we'd run during a mile race.
Training slower than goal pace allows us to increase the duration of higher-intensity endurance sessions without overstressing our bodies.
Two examples of this type of workout are:
- Tempo Runs
- Progression Runs
Tempo runs are one of the great misunderstood workouts of our sport. In his seminal book, Daniels' Running Formula, ubercoach Jack Daniels writes that "the intensity of effort associated with [tempo] running is comfortably hard. [Y]our effort should be one that you could maintain for about an hour in a race." This is what tempo is not: a time trial. To be on the safe side, when preparing for the 5K we should tempo train at an effort approximately equal to half marathon race pace.
Because the 5K doesn't require the sustained endurance effort of longer races, it's OK to break tempo runs into two sections. This gives us most of the benefit while reducing the chance of overtraining. For example:
- 2 x 10 minutes, with 2-minute jog recovery
- 2 x 15 minutes, with 3-minute jog recovery
Progression runs begin at our normal distance pace, then drop 10-15 seconds per mile until we can't go any faster (or until we reach 5K race pace). This usually occurs at between 6-9 miles. A Garmin is great for this workout, but it's OK to guesstimate pace while using a watch to trigger each increase in effort.
Varied pace work should be introduced four to six weeks before our 5K race. Faster work can take the place of the weekly drills or hills session. Slower than goal pace work can substitute for the 5K effort repetitions. Always make sure to subtract one hard workout from your weekly schedule before adding one of these.
One of the biggest mistakes we runners make is to call it quits on our workout once the running part is finished. We figure we've done the work, so what can it hurt to skip the stretching, injury prevention exercises, and icing?
Answer: It can hurt a lot.
Running depletes muscle glycogen, generates minispasms in our muscles, triggers inflammation, and leaves us dehydrated. The most important 15 minutes of our workout is the time we spend post-run counteracting these effects. In order, we need to incorporate:
- Glycogen replacement and rehydration
- Stretching
- Injury-prevention exercises
- Icing
Glycogen replacement and rehydration is easy. We simply consume 300-500 calories of carbohydrates, washing them down with lots of water. Bagels, bananas, and sports bars are great sources of carbs. Or choose chocolate milk or a sports drink to get a combination of carbs and fluids.
Static stretching has gotten a bad reputation in recent years. Done before running, it can reduce strength and even cause injury. Post-run is a different story, however, as stretching releases pesky muscle spasms that can lead to pain and inflammation.
Injury-prevention exercises are geared toward preventing and rehabilitating conditions like plantar fasciitis and iliotibial band syndrome. Towel toe curls and foot orbits can reverse many cases of plantar fasciitis, while a revised hurdler's stretch can sometimes erase iliotibial band pain in the space of a minute. These exercises and stretches should be incorporated into our post-run routine on a daily basis. Click here to watch a video of a good post-run routine.
Icing is the silver bullet that makes our sport possible. We need to ice each and every sore spot that could potentially progress to injury. And we need to begin our icing within 15 minutes after completing our run. This is truly a case of a stitch in time saving nine.
Finally, race day arrives. We step to the start line injury free. The gun goes off, and we immediately fall into a pace that matches the 5K effort we've been practicing for weeks. Our stride is effortless as we blend aerobic endurance with speed and strength gained from the hills. We make adjustments in our effort level based upon feedback from our bodies, a method we rehearsed during all those repetitions on the roads and trails. And when finally the finish banner comes into view, we call upon our fartlek-trained fast-twitch muscles to carry us to the finish line, then cross at the exact moment we reach 100 percent effort.
There's no part of the race for which we're not prepared. There are no surprises awaiting us. We completed our task before race day. We assembled all the pieces of our puzzle. Our race is no longer a test. It's show and tell. It's graduation. It's a foregone conclusion. It's a celebration.
Best of all, the race itself now adds to our overall fitness, locking our puzzle pieces into place. We can look forward to improved 5K performances in our next races. And as an added bonus, the same training that's prepared us for the 5K has also prepared us for races like the 10K – even the marathon! That's right. Since we've focused on improving the essential aspects of training – from stride efficiency to muscle fiber recruitment to aerobic endurance – rather than simply adding miles to our training logs, we've emerged as better overall runners: fitter, faster, and more efficient.

painting the side strip of my boat
How do I do this? I have a Catalina 22. The bottom was recently hauled out and painted by professionals but now I want to paint the top side side stripe. I want to change the color completely and also paint in the white gap above the stripe.What do I need to use as a primer and what kind of boating paint should i buy to paint the final coat? Also I will probably go with yellow, but I was thinking about doing an oil based paint that is metallic gold...any suggestions? Can i just get metallic gold in an oil base at the kelly moore store and some kind of polyurethane sealant or marine grade only. Thanks!

Meditation Chimer
100 - 500 downloadsAdd this app to your listsTweets por @Appszoom
It has a big friendly clock display, but you don't need to use that if you don't want to. The timer and chimes will continue even if you lock your device. It will even run in the background while you run other apps. Not that you should be doing much while you're meditating, of course, but it'll play nicely with music players, white noise generators, and so on.
* No adverts, no in-app purchases. What you buy is what you get.
* The distinct start, finish and interval chimes are provided by strikes of professionally-recorded Tibetan bowls and bells.
* The optional finishing bell can be set for up to 90 minutes. It's a double-chime, so you'll know it when you hear it.
* The optional interval bell can be set to chime from every one minute to every fifteen minutes. It's a delicate chime, designed to return you to mindfulness if necessary.
* You can choose a "settling down" time to let you get ready for meditation (up to sixty seconds)
* The only controls are three sliders for the timers, a "Start" button and a "Stop" button.
* The clock continues after the finishing bell has sounded, so you can carry on meditating if you want.
* The clock counts in hours and minutes, and fades gently from one minute to the next so it won't catch your eye.
* Carries on timing and chiming with the screen locked. Your phone won't go to sleep. Hopefully you won't, either.
* Looks good on small phones and large tablets, in landscape or portrait orientation.
* Original, high-quality photographic backgrounds based on Buddhist imagery.

Local first-graders express Thanksgiving-season gratitude
The Pioneer Press asked local first-graders to write (and draw) about what they are thankful for, and included a selection of the 500+ submissions in an article posted Saturday.
The topics were wide-ranging, as some children expressed thanks for the customary "family and friends," whereas others were thankful for "the Army" and "xylophones," the Pioneer Press said.
A few submissions that were selected by the Pioneer Press include:
"I am thankful for presidents. They keep us safe. They help the city. They love us! Forever and ever!" -Ansel Sanchez, 6, Apple Valley; Paideia
"I am thankful for Vaseline and ChapStick for my chapped lips." -Holly Becker, 6, Eagan; Deerwood Elementary
"I am thankful for xylophones because they make good music." -Alexa Murray, 6, West St. Paul; Somerset Heights Elementary
"I am thankful for my grandpa, who died, because he and I drank root beer floats." -Logan Finkel, 7, St. Paul; Somerset Heights Elementary
"I am thankful my mommy's heart healed. I love my mom. I hope she gets better." -Luke Wasson, 6, Falcon Heights; Minnehaha Academy
"I like guinea piggies because they smell me. Two guinea pigs nibble on my finger, and it tickles me. They think I'm a carrot." -Erik Haider, 7, Mendota Heights, Somerset Heights Elementary School
