To Go or Not to Go . . . To Networking Events
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Dec, 2013
As the ones responsible for developing business, we are faced with a dizzying array of choices for networking. Its not infrequent that I'm asked: "Should I go to this event?" "Where should I be going to meet people?" Here's good old kitchen table wisdom from my mother who is a pioneering entrepreneur in the travel industry (I am very proud of her!) Whenever I try to make a decision, still to this day she says: "Did yo...
Are You Ready To Go From Procrastination To Productivity?
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Oct, 2009
70% of North Americans report that they procrastinate. And 20%, or 1 in 5 of you are a chronic procrastinator. Are you one of them? What is something you are procrastinating on today? Usually when we think about someone who procrastinates, we get an image in our head of someone who is "lazy"sitting in front of the TV with a beer, or surfing the Internet all day long. For sure if you have such a negative image of yourself, y...
Are You Ready To Stop Wasting Time on Company Politics?
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Oct, 2009
Salary.com does a survey every year of time wasting in the workplace. The 2008 report revealed that 75% of employees engage in time wasting behaviors, and half of those surveyed stated that they waste time dealing with office politics. The faces of politics are many. It might take the form of someone holding onto turf by "throwing you under the boss", a boss who doesn't "get you" or promote you, or colleagues or bosses who...
What Is Stress?
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Sep, 2009
What is stress? You would probably answer that with a long list of things that businesspeople face these days: Rushing to pick your child up at school as you race out of a sales meeting, dealing with a spouse who is 'on edge' or 'down in the dumps', too many items on your list and not enough time (and then feeling guilty), etc . "Technically", that is not what stress is. Stress is what you experience when the demands...
When You Don't 'Feel Like' Doing Your Work Now
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Aug, 2009
What happens when you know you have to do something but you just 'don't feel like it' right now? Its 85° and Sunny. Business might be looking up but you are still up against a lot of resistance. When it comes time to send that email, write that proposal, make those follow up calls, etc. do you 'feel like' doing it? If you don't, you probably won't. Procrastination. I am putting together a program for the American Man...
If You Have To Give Bad News...
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Aug, 2009
You may find that you have to give 'bad' news in these times. It may be to an employee, a client, a contractor, a family member, etc. If you have a tendency to put it off it is because it makes you feel uncomfortable (another deeper reason you might put it off is because having that difficult conversation activates for you a deeper concern about it having been your fault). If you have been putting it off because you don't k...
Reinventing Yourself: From Employee To Entrepreneur
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Aug, 2009
Considering having your own company and being your own boss? It's the biggest trend in business today! I have been working with a number of corporate employees who left the structure of the corporate world and struck out on their own. You leave behind the perks of the position: the administrative support, the title, the regular paycheck, etc. in favor of the freedom to be your own boss, to do things the way YOU think they...
5 Traps That Keep You Putting Off Your Next Career Move
by Sharon Melnick, Ph.D. - Aug, 2007
Trap #1: "But how will I pay my mortgage?" This is the trap of your comfort zone. The longer you stay in your current career situation, the more you burrow into your comfort zone. Each day that you don't make a commitment to making your next step, you will make more contacts to succeed at your current job, you will have more reinforcement that you are "good at what you do" and should stay, and you will become more used t...

Three years ago, during the Summer Reading Program, an adult reading club began during and out of that summer reading program, an adult book club was formed.
The Bookmarks, which meets at noon each Friday, was formed after the Summer Reading Program ended and began with an average of eight to 16 members during that first summer.
"We enjoy the hour with books and conversation," group facilitator Barbara Larsen said.
Larsen added that the book club meets during the noon hour, so members can have lunch as they discuss the books they have read that week and the book they are reading that month.
Larsen became the leader at the beginning of the year after Martha Jones, the original leader of the Bookmarks, moved to New Mexico. Larsen was chosen as her successor by club members.
"I really enjoy the different members and their different styles of books that they read," Gena Seidenschwarz, one of the original members, said.
Seidenschwarz said the different tastes and interests in the kinds of books that everyone reads is what makes the members and the club so interesting each week.
"I abosutely love it," Helen Boyd, a member said. "I enjoy the lunch with the book club."
Larsen encourages anyone with an interest in reading and discussing what they've read to join the club.
For more information on the Bookmarks Club, contact the Stuttgart Public Library at (870) 673-1966.

First was the unprecedented amount of union support for two of the city council candidates Sid Espinosa and Yiaway Yeh.
The powerful South Bay Labor Council, an alliance of more than 70 unions (primarily public employees), became unusually and untraditionally active in support of these two of the 11 council candidates. The labor council got involved in phone drives (I received two, myself), precinct walks and mailings of fliers for Espinosa and Yeh.
I can only speculate that they want to fight two issues that emerged this past year in Palo Alto privatization and prevailing wages.
The city already is asking some private gardening companies to help maintain the parks, instead of assigning the task to city employees (who are also union members). The city saves money by going the privatizing route, since it doesn't have to worry about health and retirement benefits. And an examination of the parks by City Auditor Sharon Erickson showed no discernable difference in how well park lands are maintained.
But the union doesn't like privatizing.
Unions also want a prevailing wage policy for the city, which means that any private firm must pay wages on par with the legally defined prevailing wages. However, charter cities, such as Palo Alto, aren't required to pay the state-mandated prevailing wages for projects that are considered "municipal," rather than regional. Typically prevailing wages are higher and cost the city more money.
Two years ago local unions supported two council candidates, both of whom were elected John Barton and Peter Drekmeier.
One of the winners this year, Pat Burt, did not accept any union donations. Good for him!
It was a low voter turnout Tuesday, especially for the council race. Espinosa, who had the overwhelming support of the local "establishment," garnered the most votes 6,408. But top vote-getter in the school board race was Barbara Klausner, who had 8,922 votes 2,500 more. Those numbers reflect the ho-hum attitude in this city toward the council race few issues emerged, and people kept on asking each other who they were voting for, since the choice was murky.
Of interest to me was Measure N on the ballot, which asked Palo Altans if city officials should approve a 2.5-million-gallon, 150-foot diameter underground reservoir under a portion of El Camino Park, across from Stanford Shopping Center. Some 9,436 voters said yes, and only 865 said no. The vote was advisory
What disturbed me were three things: 1) there was no mention of cost, but if the council adopts this, our water bills will go up, as in way up. 2) a mailing from the city with information about the measure only listed the advantages, and absolutely no disadvantages, and 3) the mailing made it sound like the only issue was location of the reservoir, not whether we should build a reservoir near the downtown. The mailing was misleading.
I don't think our tax dollars should be used by the city to push a point of view on something ultimately we residents will have to pay for.
I also hope the council does not interpret this vote as overwhelming approval for the reservoir, since money was not mentioned.

I scroll through my timeline, pausing only for some seconds to read the tweet from Nigerian Newsdesk.
Jonathan fires education Minister, eight others http://t.co/nJgCiOV06r
"Boring," I say with a sigh. "Nothing is happening on Twitter today."
Reaching behind me, I use my right hand to plump one of my pillows before lowering myself to it. I squirm and turn around for some minutes until I am comfortable. Returning my attention back to the timeline, I find another tweet.
"He is too short, he is not rich…" I pause to roll my eyes. "Bla bla bla bla, and that is how Aunty Beauty clocked 50 years." I move past the offending tweet. "Last time it was Aunty Flora. The joke is no longer funny."
I attempt a few more tweets and decide to give up.
"I'll just sleep."
I clutch the edge of the sink and give in to another round of laughter as Ronke regales me with stories about her meeting with the man she had been talking to online for the past two months. Straightening up minutes later, I dab the corner of my eyes with my left hand.
"No…stop….Ronke…please stop."
"What? It is true jor," my best friend Ronke says at the other side of the phone with a long drawn hiss. "I am not going to put any effort into meeting him for dinner. His mates are coming from America with bottles of perfume while he is coming back with a small box of chocolate. Abi did they tell him that we don't have chocolate in Nigeria?"
"You should have told him what you wanted when he asked you."
"How was I supposed to know he was going to come with just a box of chocolate?"
I grin and lean closer to the mirror to examine the bump in the middle of my forehead.
"Lighten up jare. He might just be worth it at the end of the day."
"Well….let's see."

The biggest thing people are talking about, other than Bisch calling out Borash for owning the company, is Bobby Roode. I can't count how many times I've been asked if I think Roode went too far after the main event at Victory Road. For me that's not the first question that came to me. The first issue I had with that whole thing was Dixie herself. She has stated numerous times that she's not on-screen talent, yet TNA/IW doesn't go more than six months without her being involved in some storyline. Honestly, I'd have no issue with her being on TV if she didn't make such a stink about not being a character, not wanting to be in storylines on TV. But she keeps injecting herself into segments and making herself look so fragile, incompetent and unconvincing.
Roode stepped up and played the ultimate heel. Did he need to do all he did to push his heel status? Not really, but we all love to hate the absolute heel and Roode is stepping into that role in a big way. Also, a lot people have been complaining about WWE being so over the top corny and PG, so TNA/IW is going overboard in the other directions. I don't agree with how they're going about it, but I understand why they did it. For me it was Dixie who screwed up the end of VR, not Roode. I now am going to climb in to my writing cave and cover my head while everyone has a total freak out over what I wrote.
Okay, we good now? Good. Onto the rest of VR. I have to say that I am really unhappy about Storm versus Bully. I was not a Bully fan. I have loved Ray, but I have not liked Bully. Over time he grew on me and I am back to being a staunch supporter of his. Anyone who reads my blogs knows how I feel about Storm, so I feel this match screwed over two wonderful wrestlers. The only caveat I have on this one is that Storm did just have surgery, so keeping this so short could have been to give him another month to heel. I haven't read the spoilers, so I could be way off on this one.
I think Ion held up well against AA. To me this match makes so much more sense than Ion versus Sorensen did, even though I know there's a number who don't think Ion should be in PPVs at all yet. Being in with a consummate pro like AA can only help Ion, and his ring work has been improving. He's been tightening up his moves and I believe much of that is AA. I'm thrilled TNA/IW didn't do anything stupid like strapping Ion!
To be honest, I didn't really watch Angle and Hardy, which is saying something because it was the longest match of the PPV. I'm still not ready to trust Hardy, so I'm not willing to give him much of my attention. Then there's Angle who continues to get stranger and stranger. I really wonder what's going on with him and if he's really okay – mentally.
I enjoyed AJ and Anderson facing Daniels and Kaz, but I'm starting to agree with Gesus who is getting sick of the lame ways they keep trying to push AJ and Daniels to feud. I also agree with him that it was lame to have Anderson off TV so long to change up his character when it was working wonderfully, and then not changing him up at all. Where do they go from here? Hopefully with answers so all four can move on!
Kim and Madison wasn't as bad as I had expected it to be, but I can't say it was as good as I know it could have been.
I think we all knew going into the Tag Title Match that Joe and Magnus would win, but also that Crimson and Morgan would start their feud. My only question was which would turn heel. Turned out to be Crimson. While this match had to go down the way it did, and both Joe and Magnus looked great in the ring, this wasn't a PPV match. Now that Morgan and Crimson are out of the way, maybe Joe and Magnus can get down to some real work, but against who? Who is there for teams in TNA/IW these days?
I really thought that Terry was going to turn on Robbie, but obviously that didn't happen. While I think it's silly that he's following around Robbie the way he is, at least he's getting TV time? Either way, it was nice to see Devon come out and take the ever changing Title belt. Does this mean they're going to do something interesting with Devon and/or the Title? Believe it when I see it!
That leaves the main event. I have to admit that it wasn't my favorite match on the show, but I found the way they ended it quite interesting. That Sting knocked himself out the way he did was very different from what we're used to seeing. But beyond all that, this match was supposed to be what brought the fans to watch the PPV, make a TNA/IW PPV viable so close to WrestleMania. It didn't work. Or it didn't do it for me. I love Sting and have been impressed with his work with Roode, but it wasn't enough for the fans to spend their money. Does anyone think Victory Road was worth the money?
Show Starts
Video > C
Not my favorite video, when it started. It felt cheap and canned, but then they went back and showed what happened after the main event almost entirely. Why they went to stills when Roode was pulling Dixie across the ring, I don't know. This was from a PPV and they showed almost all of it. I find this very strange.
In Ring Segment > C-
Yet again Dixie is in the middle of the top rated (just guessing) storyline. Dixie is a pretty woman with an amazing body. But she looked really old here – but her too long flared jeans bagging at her ankles makes her look like she's trying to dress too young – if they had been the right length, she'd have looked almost perfect. I know she was playing at being choked up and upset. I did think it was funny that she's been talking to people all week when this was taped less than 24 hours after the incident at the PPV happened.
Tenay saying that Sting's skull was crushed on a chair when Sting was walking to the ring, I wanted to throw rotten tomatoes at the TV. I know a lot of people don't want to see Sting continue his in-ring career, but I think he can still go. I can't agree that Hogan can bring TNA/IW to the top, but Sting sure sold it with his words. The problem I have with Hogan returning is that he doesn't care enough to promote TNA/IW the way it needs to be promoted. The fans in the Zone were very happy to hear that Hogan was coming back, but I think Hogan coming back will only hurt the company. But that's not why I gave this segment a lower grade. The reason I marked this segment down the way I did was because of Dixie. She was right back to being frail and pathetic. She makes me want to shake some sense into her, and if she's anything like her 'character', then I understand why TNA/IW is floundering the way it is. Sting and his energy is the only thing that kept this segment from being an epic failure.
Backstage Segment > A-
Bully being quiet and focused the way he was, well, he was kind of creepy!
X Division Four Way – Ion vs Kash vs Neese vs Aries > A- & D-
I still want to make a capelet for AA. Slapping the taste out of Ion's mouth was wonderful! I really want to like Neese, but he has Swagger-itis – clinical lack of personality and charisma. The first part of this match was all AA, proving why he's the X Division Champ. Ion's moonsault off the corner onto KK and AA outside made me cringe. I know it was because of Sorensen, but I can't help reacting that way.
The tower of doom, that had little to do with AA, but sure had the fans hot! This match was so much better and such that we haven't seen in quite a long time from the X Division. While I understand why they inserted Bully into this match, I'm royally pissed that the best X Division match we've seen in months was ruined the way it was. I went from elation to disgust the moment Bully entered the ring – that's why I have to give this two grades. The ring work was so good, then the boot to the heart was so bad! Even though Russo is gone, obviously creative is still holding close to some of his favorite formulas.
Winner – N/A
Backstage Segment > B-
Josh Lewis from Repo Games? Lucky us! I did like the, "Do your little wrestling gimmick thing…" I actually snorted aloud at that one. Josh threw off the line perfectly straight and because of the way he handled that one line, I had to give this a better grade than I would otherwise. I also have to give Spike props for the cross promotion. It can only help TNA/IW to get more attention, that is if they actually show some of this on Repo Games! That this was straight out the best segment of the show so far really bothers my wrestling sensibilities.
Knockouts Tag Title Match – ODBEY (C) vs Rosita & Sarita > C-
I think that Rosita has such troubles being taken seriously by me in the ring because of her size. I'd really like to see Rosita in the ring with AJ (Lee) and see what the petite duo could do. But putting her in the ring with EY is just horrible! Actually, what I want to see is Kim feud with Sarita. I think that would be a great feud. Maybe the mic work wouldn't be the best – though it could be solid – it's the ring work I want to see. I think those two could really tear things up in there.
EY doing cartwheels? He does make it interesting, but not a wrestling match! Honestly, do we really expect a wrestling match when those two are Knockouts Champs? I will say that EY spent more of this match in an ODB headlock with his face in her boobs, or her tongue down his throat – EY's making out like a bandit!
Winners – ODBEY
Video > D-
Or actually stills, from the growing feud between Morgan and Crimson. Lucky us.
Backstage Segment > D
Crimson was a bit off here, but it's his first promo with this changed character, so I'll give him a bit of leeway. He does have potential, so hopefully we'll see him growing into this character. Hey, at least Snow got a few second of air time.
Video > D+
A recap of the opening segment, because it was just so long ago! At least it was the better part of the segment – Sting talking.
Backstage Segment > F
And I spoke too soon because here's Dixie! If she's anything like her TV character, all wishy-washy, no wonder TNA/IW is in the state it's in. TNA/IW needs a leader and that's absolutely not a leader! Yes, it could be a character, but after all we've seen and heard about her, it feels more like the woman that she'd want to admit, because that Dixie is downright piteous.
Backstage Segment > B
He really is not a bad looking guy. I'm talking about Abyss' 'brother' Joseph, not Hardy. I really can't wait to see where they're going with this. I imagine he's having a blast playing this character. He seems to have a slight smirk running under all his expressions.
Video > A!
Yes, I gave a TNA/IW video an A, but this one deserved it! Early Team Canada, Storm starting out with Wildcat – brilliantly cut and executed with wonderful commentary from both men. Bravo!
In Ring Segment > A-
Seeing how Storm has grown just blows my mind. He was such a kid early on, but this past year he's just exploded. The way Storm talked about football, gas prices and Roode was perfect! Just what Americans want to hear from the redneck. Then the way he looked over the guy who came out to Roode's music was great!
William Kelly? A lawyer? Those glasses? That accent? I will say that he looked great in that suit! It was cut beautifully and fit wonderfully. The way he said Frankie Kazarian was a hoot! There was a kid in the front row who was doing Santino's trumpeting motion, something I found very funny. Not as funny as the way Storm about took out Kelly. So, do we have a clue who that guy was?
Backstage Segment > C+
As I wondered earlier – is Angle losing it a bit? I will say the way he told Garett that he hates his guts had me giggling. But Angle has been feeling weird to me since his most recent return. I'm just not liking him and wonder if there's anything going on there. I don't even want to talk about Garett or I will go off about nepotism.
3 Minute Challenge – Garett vs Angle > D
Yay, nepotism and ego. For me the best part was Gunner joining the fray. Wait, Angle and Gunner fled when Hardy hit the ring? That makes absolutely no sense to me. Do I smell a Tag Match in their future?
Winner – N/A
Tag Title Match – MexA (Anarquia & Hernandez) w/ Sarita & Rosita vs Joe & Magnus (C) > B+
Rosita trying to walk down that ramp in those heels looked painful. I know she has to wear really tall heels to look like more than a child with them, but it has to be horrid trying to get down a ramp on your tippy-tippies in shoes like that! I know it's not possible, but Joe looks even chubbier than at VR.
Joe and Magnus tried a double team that seemed to fall apart in a big way. I don't know what happened, but Magnus tried to cover. Hernandez was sick! Magnus up on his shoulder like it was nothing! Taz said Hernandez looks leaner, and he does! I have to say that Hernandez looked ripped. Arn looked possitively lump in comparison. He doesn't look as imposing as he had, even somehow looked shorter – though I know that's also not possible.
Joe with the hot tag was great. Then the double team from them, wow! I did not think those two would work and they're proving me wrong each time their in the ring together! TNA/IW really needs to put together some solid teams to throw at Joe and Magnus. Maybe the Guns? That would be amazing! Oh, if I'd been Sarita, I would not have worn a skirt to the ring knowing she'd be carried out over Lewis' shoulder!
Winners – Joe & Magnus
Backstage Segment > D+
Sorry, not the biggest Hogan fan these days. He needs to either put up or shut up instead of giving TNA/IW the tiniest bits of himself and thinking he's doing something great.
Backstage Segment > D-
That was the worst faked and missed punch I think I've ever seen! And while it was funny to see Sarita and Rosita leaving with Lewis, it set a bad precedent and catered to stereotypes in a disgusting way. As a woman I'm disgusted.
Video > B-
'Longnecks & Rednecks'? Cowboy Troy? Montgomery Gentry? Okay, I do know who Montgomery Gentry is, but not Cowboy Troy. I like country music, but haven't listened to anything recent in a very long time. It might be time to don my cowboy hat and take a long car ride with the radio turned to a country station – just as long as they don't play any Mickie James!
Handicap Match – Daniels & Kaz vs Storm > A
Storm looked great in the ring from the start. So nice to see a face not be shown to be the fool and attacked from behind on the ramp. In the ring the fans were hot for Storm and he gave them everything they wanted and more. Daniels and Kaz played the perfect stooges. While they got in some shots, Storm took care of them and held the fans in the palm of his hand. It's because of the entertainment value that this segment got such a high grade. It wasn't much of a match, but the likes of Austin didn't have to do much in the ring either. I'm going to get beaten up for comparing Storm to Austin, but it's right there staring us in the face. I know Storm will never get to the level of Austin who is arguably the greatest of all time (look at the numbers), but there's so many similarities that they can't be ignored. It's not just the redneck and beer thing, it's the everyman thing, not putting on airs, being a who he is and proud of it, not needing to be corny to get over, and it's staying rough around the edges. It's the charisma that makes the fans love him and need to see him win. It's all of that and how well both Daniels and Kaz went out there and took their last call kicks to continue to push Storm further up the ladder, that I gave this such a solid grade.
Storm is the hottest commodity in TNA/IW these days, hopefully they capitalize on it in an intelligent way and not let this opportunity slip through their fingers. They need to get Storm out there on a media circuit and bring in both wrestling fans, ad the people who want to see the good guy, a real guy – not some corny caricature of a good guy – come out on top and win the big one. The only thing that makes it better is that he'll be going up against his former partner and best friend. While clichéd, it's the type of story that will steal hearts and get people rooting that much more for Storm.
The big question is will Dixie and TPTB actually take this opportunity and run with it, or will they drop the ball and let Hogan, Bisch, Flair, etc., crap all over Storm the way they did Roode when he was reaching for the Title? It wouldn't take much, just some TV spots and Storm's charisma and likability would take care of the rest.
In Ring Segment > C
Of course the fans are wild for Hogan. He is Hulk Hogan! I do wish he'd either fish or cut bait, but if he's not being pushed by Dixie to do what he should be doing for the company, why should he put his time and effort in?
I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I like the way they ended this Impact. Very interesting and left us all with a question hanging. Well, those who refuse to read spoilers, and needs to remember that moderating comments opens her up to possible spoilers, then we're left with a question for next week!
Post Show
While there were a couple of really solid bits to this show, almost all of them were ripped away by bad creative or booking. I know I said the other day that everyone in the WWE works hard to give us a great show, that they do so many things so wonderfully, things we don't even notice because they're executed so well, but I don't feel the same way about TNA/IW right now. I know I said that attacking every little bit won't get us anywhere, and that we can't have every little bit of every show and every storyline go the way we want it to, but when TNA/IW gives us one of the best X Division matches that we've see in months, but then send Bully in to ruin it – then I'm going to be ragingly pissed!
That match blew AA versus Ion at VR out of the water, but they couldn't let it go to its natural end? And Bully said early on that he was going to wreak havoc on Impact, but then only attacked the X Division guys and we never saw him again. I thought he was going to take hostages and leave a path of destruction. Did they forget this, or did they cut out Bully's other segments to make more room for other backstage segments?
I don't want to end this on a sour note, so I will mention some favorite moments and start with saying again say how great the Roode/Storm video was. It felt like a WWE video and was fun thinking back to Team Canada. The way the fans chanted for Roode to be fired when Dixie first got to the ring was great. It brought me back to the days of 'Don't fire EY!' when his contract was in the hands of Roode. The last thing that really brought a smile to my face was Storm's segments. He's starting to be a really bit fish in a little pond and a copious amount of fun! (Okay, I gave you that one.)

T-Mobile HTC Radar 4G will be available on November 2 for $99.99
Late last month, T-Mobile announced that it would be adding a new Windows Phone to its portfolio, namely the HTC Radar 4G. This is a very similar device to the internationally launched HTC Radar, the Taiwanese company's latest midrange WP offering.
Back when the official announcement came, T-Mobile unfortunately decided not to provide us with any information about the pricing of this phone, or its release date. Thankfully, the magenta carrier has rectified all of that earlier today, via Facebook no less.
According to T-Mobile, the HTC Radar 4G will become available on November 2, which is next Wednesday. It will cost a cool $99.99 (after a $50 mail-in rebate), if you choose to sign a new two-year contract and get voice and data service.
The HTC Radar 4G is definitely a good addition to TMo's roster, making Windows Phone more accessible to those of you in the US of A. And next week you'll be able to pick one up.

You're probably seeing a lot of Dylan Gelula recently. The teenage actress not only stars as Gretchen Doyle on TV Land's original series Jennifer Falls, but she also has a recurring role as Ford, a friend of Brenna Carver (Haley Ramm) on ABC Family's new drama Chasing Life. We caught up with Dylan during a break in her schedule last week to talk about both projects.
"It's pretty nice," she told us. "It hasn't literally been two jobs at once. The pilot of Jennifer Falls, I shot during Chasing Life. Tuesdays and Wednesdays I'm on TV; that's got to be an ideal [situation]."
Chasing Life is a dramatic series based on a Mexican telenovela focusing on a woman with cancer played by Christina Ricci, while Jennifer Falls is a laugh-out-loud family comedy about mothers and daughters in which Dylan co-stars with Jaime Pressly and Archer's Jessica Walter. Does she like the difference between projects? "Totally," she said. "They're just completely different demographics, completely different experiences. I'm very lucky."
Whether she's playing the best friend or the wisecracking daughter, Dylan is impressing audiences with her energetic performances. But don't expect the success to go to her head. She's still firmly down to earth. "I have so little experience, I can't imagine people knowing who I am. I can't imagine how that would feel," she laughed, adding that she's not tuned in to her own shows. "I'm just not that interested in watching myself. I like working, but once it's on, I don't really care."
The fact that she's a professional actress hasn't even quite sunk in yet either. "This feels like I'm at summer camp and I have to go back to my parents at any moment. Or they're at least going to come up to visiting day," Dylan continued. Previously, she got her TV start in a 2011 episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, and you may have also seen her in an episode of NCIS in 2013.
Now she's being introduced to national audiences twice a week in two different shows, and hopefully people will take notice of this up-and-coming actress who's proven she can play both sides of the TV spectrum. With her whole career ahead of her, what would Dylan like to see coming her way in the future?
"I want to have the experience of doing a movie. I've never had that," she told us. "I'm trying to collect experiences and figure out from there. My boyfriend and I watched the entire second season of Orange Is The New Black. it's my favorite show that's come out in a long time. It's just completely, beautifully developed characters for women."
Chasing Life airs Tuesdays at 9 PM ET/PT on ABC Family and Jennifer Falls airs Wednesdays at 10:30 PM ET/PT on TV Land (check your local listings for specific channels). You can also find Dylan on Twitter (@DylanGelula).

The teenager accused of the drunk driving death of a Chico State student, pleaded not guilty in court Wednesday. Riley Hoover, 19, now faces an additional felony drug charge.
In addition to the series of charges Hoover originally faced for the deadly collision, the Butte County District Attorney's Office has added an additional drug charge related to the manufacturing of butane honey oil.
Investigators said late on the night of Sunday, September 22, Hoover's car struck Chico State nursing student Kristina Chesterman as she was riding her bike home from the library. The 21-year-old died at the hospital several days later.
The Butte County District Attorney Mike Ramsey said Hoover's blood alcohol level may have been as high as .30 at the time of the collision, which is more than three times the legal limit for driving.
Chico Police said Hoover had 40 ounces of hash inside his car. That led to a search warrant in the foothills of Berry Creek where four other suspects were arrested on drug charges.
In court Wednesday, KRCR News Channel 7 reporter Tyler May was allowed to shoot video of Hoover for the first time since the deadly collision. Hoover's hair is shorter than his previous mugshot obtained by KRCR News Channel 7 from a previous drug trafficking arrest in Ohio.
Hoover remains in the Butte County Jail. He's originally from Ohio. Prosecutors said Hoover recently moved to Chico to make money off the marijuana trade.

NVIDIA have been doing quite well in the System-on-a-Chip (SoC) department lately, with Tegra 2 and 3 making big splashes in mobile devices across the world. Tegra 4i is nearly here, but what is coming next? Well, NVIDIA have updated their mobile roadmap at NVIDIA's GPU Technology Conference.
The next SoC we should expect from NVIDIA is codenamed "Logan", and the one after that was previously said to be "Stark", but is now "Parker". Both will use NVIDIA's CUDA technology, with Logan featuring a Kepler GPU and Parker running a Project Denver 64-bit ARM-based CPU as well as packing a next-generation Maxwell GPU. Logan should reach us early 2014, with Parker not being baked into devices until sometime in 2015.

College Hockey:Playing healthy puts goaltender Komm at a higher level for Bentley
Bentley coach Ryan Soderquist takes the "what have you done for me lately?" approach with his goaltenders, and so far this year, that means sophomore Branden Komm has been the go-to guy.
"Coach goes with the hot hand, so you're only as good as your last game or practice," Komm said.
And in Komm's case, the recent history is pretty good. On Monday, he was named Atlantic Hockey goalie of the week for picking up two wins last weekend, allowing just a single goal in each game. Komm has a .929 save percentage so far this season, fourth-best in the league.
Komm said he thinks his play in early non-conference games helped him earn the starting job.
"We played some tough teams — Michigan, UMass, Quinnipiac," said Komm. "I saw a lot of shots in those games."
Komm hails from Williamsville, N.Y., a suburb of Buffalo. He played in seven games his freshman year, competing for time with a pair of upperclassmen, Joe Calvi and Kyle Rank.
"It was frustrating because I would play, get injured, play, and then get injured again," he said.
Playing healthy and more consistently has earned him four wins after posting just one last season. One of Komm's most satisfying victories to date was a 2-0 win at Canisius, his first shutout. The win was special, coming in his hometown.
"It was fun," he said. "There were about 25 family and friends there. It was nice to come home and play well."
The Falcons' next challenge is a pair of games at Mercyhurst this weekend. The Lakers like to run and gun, especially at home.
"Every league game is so important," said Komm. "And they're an explosive team. Everyone's going to have to help out. If we win, it will be a team win.
"This year, the team is very close. The leaders are doing a great job. The closer you are, the better you go."
New digs
Rochester Institute of Technology's quest for a new rink took a big step last Friday, when it was announced that the Polisseni Foundation and B. Thomas Golisano, former owner of the Buffalo Sabres, had contributed $4.5 million toward the project. The new facility will be named the Gene Polisseni Center, in honor of Polisseni, a friend and colleague of Golisano. Polisseni, who died in 1991, was heavily involved in youth hockey in the Rochester, N.Y., area.
"This is an extraordinary partnership that provides a giant step toward our goal of creating the highest quality game-day experience for our players, students and the fans of RIT hockey throughout the local community," said RIT president William Destler. "The support of the Polisseni Foundation and our long-time benefactor and friend Tom Golisano heightens our resolve to make that a reality."
RIT hopes to break ground on the proposed $30 million facility in the fall of 2012.
Players of the week
From the home office in Haverhill, Mass.:
Atlantic Hockey player of the week:
Jay Silvia, Holy Cross
The senior forward had two goals and an assist to help the Crusaders to a 1-1 weekend.
Atlantic Hockey goalie of the week:
Branden Komm, Bentley
Komm allowed just two goals last weekend to help the Falcons pick up four points. He made 31 saves on Friday in a win over American International and 40 on Saturday in a win at Army.
Atlantic Hockey rookie of the week:
Chris Bodo, Mercyhurst
The forward from St. Thomas, Ontario, had two goals and an assist last weekend to help the Lakers to a split. He had a goal in a 4-3 loss to Robert Morris and a goal and an assist in a 3-2 win against Air Force.
Came to play
Air Force was swept last weekend, but it wasn't senior Tim Kirby's fault. The all-star defenseman had an excellent weekend, posting a pair of goals and an assist. Kirby has 67 career points to date, including 16 goals.
All in the family
Army rookie defenseman Maurice Alvarez helped the Black Knights to their first win of the season on Saturday, with a goal and an assist in the 2-1 win. Alvarez was paired with his brother Marcel, a senior and three-time league all-star.
Welcome back
RIT goaltender Shane Madolora had a successful return from a five-game suspension by the NCAA for an eligibility infraction. Seeing his first action since Oct. 15, the senior stopped 25 of 26 shots to lead the Tigers to a 3-1 win over Air Force last Friday. RIT is 1-3-1 without Madolora in net, but 2-0-1 when he is in goal. Madolora has a 1.96 goals against average and a .930 save percentage so far this season.
A little help here
You'd expect a goalie with a .922 save percentage and a 2.99 goals against average to be at least .500, but so far American International goalie Ben Meisner is just 2-7-1. The Yellow Jackets are struggling offensively, scoring two goals or fewer in nine of their 11 games played so far.
King of all media
The always quotable Frank Serratore, coach at Air Force, is known for his press conferences and radio and TV appearances. Serratore is now taking a turn as a writer, penning a piece for USA Hockey Magazine on the type of recruits he looks for and the benefits of a service academy education. It's worth checking out.

Keyword: holiday safety tips
Baltimore County Police Captain Michael Balog, Precinct 9/White Marsh
Police departments throughout the country send out "Holiday Safety Tips" this time of year. It takes only a small amount of time and effort to secure your recent holiday purchases, your credit card information, and – most importantly – your own physical well being.
Some of the best safety tips I have heard have come from some clever people who figured out how to use common household items – and common sense – to protect themselves and their property. Here are a few of those safety tips:
- Use remote-controlled switches that plug into an outlet as an additional light source. You can plug more than just Christmas lights into them. Plug in a lamp or two, and you can turn on those lights from your bedroom at night. An internet search quickly found a pack of three for under $20.
- Old baby monitors are a good tool for detecting outside noises. Place them outside, near your doors, at night, and place the control monitor next to your bed.
- When you order something to be delivered to your house, you don't want it sitting there unattended. Arrange for a neighbor to pick it up immediately after delivery if you can't be home to get it.
- After opening the new electronic gizmos this holiday season, cut up the boxes and place in a black trash bag so no one can tell what nifty new items you have. Better yet, keep the boxes in your house until you have an extra moment to recycle them at a recycling dumpster at one of the County's recycling drop off centers.
- Please stop telling the world that no one is at your house. Criminals use Facebook and Twitter, too.
- Believe me, the king of some obscure country does not need your credit card number or bank account number, and he will not give you a million dollars after you first give him a few thousand dollars. Similar scams frequently target the elderly, and often succeed. With the holiday shopping season in full swing, such scammers may become more active.
- Bookmark our holiday crime prevention page.
Have a happy and crime-free holiday.

Last week, the Lollapalooza festival released its 2014 schedule, which will be held in Grant Park on Aug. 1-3. Across its eight stages, Lollapalooza offers an act to please a wide variety of tastes, from jazz lovers who will clap their hands to Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue on the Bud Light stage on August 3 to hip hop fans who are looking forward to Nas on the Palladia stage on August 2 to indie music devotees who will arrive early to be in the front row for Grammy Song of the Year winner Lorde at the Bud Light stage on August 1.
This year's headliners include such diverse artists as Eminem, OutKast, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, and the Avett Brothers. While old favorites like Mumford and Sons, The Cure, and Vampire Weekend will not return to Lollapalooza this year, some lesser-known acts will make their first appearance at the much-beloved Lollapalooza, which, according to Chicago Tribune journalist Greg Kot, drew a capacity audience of 300,000 for its 2013 festival (see Greg Kot's coverage of the Lollapalooza lineup).
Former Artist Relations Assistant for Invisible Children Nonprofit Alex Naser-Hall has weighed in on two exciting new acts that should not be missed at this year's Lollapalooza. He mentions Australian electronic artist Flume as producing one of the best albums of last year and says he's "glad he's getting some shine stateside."
He also recommends Bleachers, the solo project from Jack Antonoff, of the band fun. and "Some Nights" fame. Naser-Hall describes Bleachers as "this angsty, high school Queen type band." It's a can't miss for anyone who desperately misses Freddy Mercury.
The main problem that Naser-Hall and other music aficionados foresee with the 2014 Lollapalooza schedule is the need for the Flannel-Clad Hipster and other Lollapalooza lovers to make difficult decisions in planning their schedules.
Eminem will face off against Arctic Monkeys and Phantogram on August 1. OutKast will conflict with Calvin Harris and Cut Copy on Saturday. Finally, Darkside, Chance the Rapper, Skrillex, and Kings of Leon will battle it out on Sunday.
These are just the overlaps in major headliners. Those who want to take in as many up-and-coming acts as possible will have to make some tough choices and perhaps some painful sacrifices. Spin Magazine and Pitchfork have weighed in on other potentially contentious conflicts.
But choices and sacrifices aside, Lollapalooza's tenth year promises to bring a wide variety of old and new favorite bands to every Chicago music lover. As in its previous nine years, 2014 Lollapalooza looks primed to bring Chicago together and teach its many residents to sing in perfect harmony.

Well, well, well. What have we here? Why, it's a little blog called "365 Films a Year!" where once upon a time I wrote hundreds and hundreds of film reviews.
And now I'm back. At least for today. Because I feel the need to talk to you about a little film called Planes, which opened today. (But this isn't really a *review*, as you will see.)
Now, to understand why I needed to write about this film, you need to know its history. Planes is a spinoff of the Disney/Pixar "Cars" property. If you were reading this blog back when I actually watched 365 films in one year, you'll remember that I *loved* Cars. It is, in fact, still my favorite Pixar film. But my love of the film did not follow through to its spinoff media. The first "Cars" short, Mater and the Ghostlight was well made and pointed to great expandability for the franchise.
Unfortunately, what followed was a series of extremely silly and only occasionally truly engaging shorts called "Mater's Tall Tales", followed by the biggest disappointment of all, Cars 2. (A film which, though still entertaining, seemed to forget everything that made the original Cars work.) Cars 2 was the first Pixar film to receive generally negative reviews and it missed the $200M standard that Pixar film usually attain. Cars was hardly a critical darling, had solid but not spectacular box office and lost the Oscar to the forgettable Happy Feet. (Remember that one? Didn't think so.)
So, why make a sequel? One simple answer: toys. The "Cars" die cast car line is one of the most successful toy lines to emerge in the last decade, still holding down peg space seven years after its inception. So a new movie (with its opportunities for new characters/product) was in the offing whether there was a compelling story or not.
And that's where Disney Animation chief John Lasseter's well documented belief in putting story first actually hurt Cars 2. In the hands of a less scrupulous producer/director, Cars 2 would be a by-the-book rehash or, at best, a formulaic extension of the story. But Lasseter had to find the "important" story to tell and, in doing so, pushed the narrative so far outside the realm of Cars as to be unrecognizable. (Lasseter was wont to say that Cars 2 is a spy picture that happens to feature cars, instead of the spy *parody* it probably should have been.) So, instead of a solid, but unoriginal, sequel, we got an ambitious drama that bears no resemblance to the film that spawned it.
But it sold toys. Even to me. I didn't care for Cars 2 that much, but I did like the characters and I bought several (very expensive) Lego sets based on *both* films. So with the toys still selling, we had not seen the last of this universe, even if Lasseter was unwilling to make a Cars 3. The answer, to Disney, was to look up in the sky. The idea behind Planes was born.
Planes would take place in the "world of Cars", but be about…well…airplanes. It would also be produced, not by Pixar, but by Disney Toon Studios, which means one thing: straight-to-video. Disney Toon Studios had not had a theatrical release in years and even their home video output had been reduced to the Tinkerbell films. "Planes" was to be their next home video series.
But, just as had happened with Toy Story 2 all those years ago, the Disney brass felt that Planes was turning out too well to just ignore the potential income from a theatrical release. Now, if Planes had been initially intended for theaters, I'm sure Lasseter would never have given it to Disney Toon Studios. As it is, it's probably for the best that it didn't land in the lap of the often-too-high-minded folks at Pixar.
Because Planes is the film that Cars 2 should have been. Yes, it's formulaic. Yes, it's predictable. Yes, it rehashes themes from the original film. But it's fun, engaging and, if it isn't quite on Pixar's level, it looks really good on the big screen.
But the critics *hate* it. They were disappointed with Cars. They disliked Cars 2. But they *hate* Planes. They hate it because it's "derivative". They hate it because it's "safe". They *really* hate it because it was created to further the toy line.
The problem is, none of those things should be automatic negatives. Yes, truly original material should be celebrated. But "original" is not synonymous with "good". The Human Centipede was original. Casablanca was not. (No, I'm not saying Planes is as good as Casablanca. Stick with me here.) The point is that formula works. That's why the formulas are…formulated. There are good formula films and bad ones. But read those reviews of Planes. Most of them (even the positive ones) will call the film derivative. It is. So what? Films aren't made for critics, who watch far too many films for their own good. They are made for regular people who often just want to be entertained for an hour-and-a-half or so.
And they aren't even consistent about this issue. Somehow Planes being derivative is *bad*, but Star Trek Into Darkness' stealing plotlines, characters and actual scenes and dialogue from The Wrath of Khan is barely worth mentioning. This is, of course, because the critics have focused on nuTrek's "newness" (meaning everyone is young and acts nothing like the original versions of the characters) as compared to its many, many thefts from earlier (and better) works.
To me, *consistency* is much more important than originality when it comes to follow-up films. "Fidelity to the source material" is how I put it. For instance, NuTrek (because it was not a true "reboot" and has hooks into the original series) is *not* faithful to the series that spawned it. Even if it *was* well made, it's "newness" would not forgive it's lack of fidelity to the source material. Star Trek V, for all its many faults, fits into the real Star Trek universe. I'll take "V" over "Trek '09″ any day. Cars 2 fails not just because of its plotholes and outlandish storyline. It's because it feels nothing like Cars.
Planes does feel like Cars, and that's a good thing. It *is* unabashedly of the ("safe") world of Cars and was made for its primary audience (children). And critics *hate* that. They don't like films for children that adults can enjoy. (Cars) They like films for adults that kids can tolerate. (Ratatouille – which was much higher rated and much less attended than Cars)
And, finally, why should it matter *why* a film was made? Old Hollywood used to make films for lots of reasons; to make use of expensive sets to save on expenses (The Most Dangerous Game) or to promote a specific actor (The Wizard of Oz). These films weren't made for some great artistic purpose. But they are often great films. It is ultimately up to the creative team behind a film, not the executive who green-lit it, whether a film accomplishes its goals.
But audiences know what they like. Into Darkness underperformed. Audiences loved The Great Gatsby. Critics didn't care for Iron Man 3 or Man of Steel. Of course, there are films like The Avengers and The Lone Ranger that can still bring audiences and critics together, but the disparity seems to be getting greater and greater between what the media considers good and what audiences actually enjoy. As the Oscars become more and more irrelevant (as popular films become less and less likely to win), audiences become jaded and trust critics less and less. (As I once said, if the critics couldn't shut down "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark", they are now toothless.)
In the final analysis, whether a film is good or not is *entirely* subjective. A 26% on Rotten Tomatoes does not make a film bad. Your not liking it does.
Me? I liked Planes. Your air miles may vary.

Cameron U-Turn on EU Referendum
CAMERON U-TURN ON EU REFERENDUM – It has been announced that both Germany and the United States have advised the Prime Minister, David Cameron, not to hold a EU Referendum on pulling out of Europe.
I have a few questions:
Question – Who employs David Cameron?
Answer – Oh, that would be the British People – the hard working taxpayer.
Question - Does Germany have any right to dictate to David Cameron and or the British people what the Prime Minister should and should not allow for the British people.
Answer – Tough one, but considering David is a jellyfish – that's a creature without a spine, it would appear so.
Question – What on earth has this go to do with the United States?
Answer – Funny how many Americans are berating and calling for the deportation of Piers Morgan over his Gun Law views, and yet the Americans think it's A OK to stick their snouts into our business.
So it looks like our illustrious Jellyfish has once again promised something to the British public and then welched on this promise. In the original article, covering David's announcement of a Referendum, I was more than a little dubious. Considering the amount of lies David and the rest of his lackeys have come out with since reaching power this really comes as no surprise.
Apparently, as this is just another lie, from what has now become a well seasoned liar, is that David will firstly try to renegotiate terms with Europe and then seek approval from the voters – after it's a done and signed deal.
In other words folks David knows that the door to No.10 is open, he'll just have to be careful it doesn't hit him in the backside on his way out. The next general election will see a new government and David is now feathering his nest in Europe, in exactly the same way as Tony Blair, to ensure that the wealth, after No.10 Downing Street, will continue to accumulate.
I really can't take the lies anyone more and therefore here's my offer to the British people.
Vote me in to No.10 and here's what I pledge and will carry out on behalf of the British people.
1. There won't be jobs for anyone in the 'Old Boys Network'. The ministers will be made up of highly professional people from relevant sectors – it will mean paying them more but at least the job will get done and if they don't I'll sack them.
2. I'll give you a Referendum, not just on Europe, but also on other critical issues, such as Immigration, Healthcare, Education and more. In other words if it affects your pocket – that is it comes out of your tax then you'll have a say.
3. I'll put Europe and the United State firmly in their place. Friends DO NOT dictate what a friend should do – end of.
4. Foreign Aid – there won't be any if you vote that way in a referendum. I'll use that money for our Healthcare system, Education, Armed Forces and more.
5. I'll pull our Armed Forces out of any conflict zone and politely tell the country to leave us alone and we'll respond in kind.
6. You name what else you want and I'll put it to a referendum – that way the British people will finally have control over the UK and not a bunch of liars, thieves and murders.
Well there you have it in a nutshell – a plain, honest, short and sweet manifesto that cuts right to the heart of the issues and problems the United Kingdom has and which none of are addressed or resolved by our current government.
Just remember, whoever you vote in, it should be a government that works FOR the people not AGAINST the people. Europe doesn't want the UK pulling out of Europe because it knows that without our cash Germany and France would have to come up with a lot more to support a regime that is antiquated, broken and corrupt to the core – what British Prime Minister, in his or her right mind, would support such a scheme unless they know, as Tony Blair did, that once out of power the benefits are assured and extremely lucrative.
At this point, considering the amount of lies David Cameron has feed the people since coming to power, you would think he would have the common decency to step down in wake of all the failure. The issue here of course is the words 'Common Decency' of which David and his government clearly lack.
"Britain risked being 'isolated' and said leaving the EU would weaken its position in the world." Gunther Krichbaum, the chairman of Germany's European affairs committee, speaking on a visit to London, said
As for the statement above… Weaken the UK's position in the world? That's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. It would in fact strengthen our position as we wouldn't be wasting billions of pounds in Europe – we could pull our troops out of places like Iraq and Afghanistan and make peace. Not only would this save billions it would also save the lives of our British Armed Service personnel.
So what exactly is David Cameron's plan. Well according to reports he is going to address the European Union and seek a looser agreement – that that is mainly based on Trade. This in itself is not a bad thing, but will this ever come to pass?
According to the Prime Minister, who is against pulling out of Europe, did stay that he will give the people a 'real choice' in 2018 if he wins the next election – I appreciate people being optimistic but David at this point is being delusional how on earth he expects to win another election with, or without the existing coalition is beyond me.
In my view the United Kingdom has always been short-changed from its dealing with Europe and if the United Kingdom is to move forward and thrive then we must have an agreement on Trade Only and leave the rest for those in Europe to sort out Europe.

One morning last week, Glenn Addario left his home in Coram and got to work about 7:45 a.m. His first task of the morning was digging a grave.
At Long Island National Cemetery in Farmingdale, Glenn checked in at maintenance headquarters and picked up a "dig slip" that told him where he'd start his day. The paper had coordinates he'd follow to locate the gravesite within the 365 acres, where more than 346,000 veterans and their close relatives are buried. (more…)

For those individuals who are constantly sick and forced to make that dreaded visit to your doctor in what seems like a regular basis, optimum health could come in the form or regular exercise and a change in eating habits. It may be vital to take a sort of survey on your health.
What seems to be the underlying cause of staying in a continual state of being unwell?
Below are some questions you could write down in a notebook and don't skimp on writing anything and everything you can think of in the way of how you feel and question yourself on your lifestyle.
Be Brutally Honest With Yourself
1. Do you eat a healthy diet or do you consume lots of fat and empty calories simply because you "feel like it and it tastes good?" What may taste good may not be good for you or be something that supports your health.
2. Do you exercise regularly? Most people think of exercise as jogging or going to the gym and lifting weights or going through a huge workout schedule.
Believe it or not, eating healthy can be delicious and not half as difficult as you may think. Cut back on red meat, eat free range chicken or turkey, wild fish (never farm-raised) and at least three servings of vegetables per meal (except breakfast) and try to cut back on all the carb-laden foods like pancakes and do your best to make fried eggs, bacon and sausage a once in a while treat.
You Are What You Eat
A perfect example of that quote can be viewed from the person who has diabetes. A diabetic is insulin resistant and must be very careful in what they consume. They constantly monitor their blood sugar through the use of a glucose meter which means they have to prick their finger or sometimes their arm to get a drop of their blood to check their sugar levels.
If a diabetic eats something with high carbohydrates or a meal full of carbs and fat, within an hour or two their blood sugar can be off the charts and so high it can become life threatening.
This example proves that what we eat directly and almost instantly has an effect on our bodies. If you are not a diabetic consider yourself lucky because you have time to reverse the potential of developing this debilitating disease.
Why wait until you become truly ill to do something positive for yourself that could impact the rest of your life?
Exercise Every Day Can Keep the Doctor Away
Sure, if you're feeling great you don't need medical care (except for that regular check-up) but many people feel great, do everything in excess until that fateful day when age and overindulgence catches up with you.
Have you ever noticed that "fit" people seem to have more fun? Naturally, you may feel you'd have to go a long way and work too hard to achieve any level of fitness that could improve your health but that's not true.
You can start out with "baby steps." Purchase some good walking shoes or tennis shoes that are built for walking and start walking. You may only be able to walk twenty feet the first day if you're really out of shape, but keep walking that twenty feet on a daily basis, then add five more, then five more and so on until you get up to a mile.
Obviously, you should always consult your doctor before you begin any exercise regimen, but if you don't have any serious health issues they would probably cheer you on and give you nothing but praise for taking charge of your health.
Find a 'walking buddy' to join you. There's nothing better than doing something with another person so you both can support and keep each other focused on the goal; becoming fit and/or healthier.
Hanging out with a bunch of sick people in a doctor's office is way less appealing than experiencing the company of fit and vital people who make their health a priority.
Be Kind to Your Heart And It Will be Kind to You
Nearly 54% of Americans put off exercise or simply don't even think about it. They believe working and walking around their offices a few times a day, and to their cars, is sufficient. No, it's not. Only 22% of Americans exercise enough to become 'heart-healthy.'
There have been thousands of medical studies done for centuries that show how regular exercise can lower the need for medical intervention by nearly 50%. Along with strengthening your heart muscle it can lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
For those desiring to lose weight you can get a quadruple whammy. You can get healthier and lose weight.
Your heart is the engine that runs your body. Doing anything and everything possible to strengthen the most important muscle in your body and it needs exercise to keep up its' tireless work it does for you each and every day. For the obese person who can barely walk a few feet without getting winded, it means their hearts are struggling to carry the extreme burden of all that extra weight.
Of course, we're not dismissing or putting down the overweight because statistics show that nearly 60% of Americans are overweight or obese. Even children are becoming a huge block of those that carry too many pounds and it is making a very negative impact upon their lives.
Most likely, they won't live as long as their parents who became overweight as adults. All they need is support, compassion and someone to give them the tools necessary to get on the path to wellness. Some will heed the call and some won't. Our health and life is our own personal responsibility.
The sedentary lifestyles we live and the fast-food that has become second nature and brought our society to the brink of a health disaster.
According to MayoClinic.com, a 45-minute light jog can burn as much as 653 calories. Instead of watching a one-hour reality show, how about taking a 30-45 minute walk or, if possible, purchase even an inexpensive exercise bike and peddle for 45 minutes during inclement weather.
Do yourself and your family a huge favor and give them the gift of health through healthy eating and a reasonable exercise routine. Make it a family affair and sit down and do some healthy meal-planning so everyone is satisfied, then lay out a plan for some physical exercise the whole family can enjoy.
If you can afford one of the games that connect to your television like Wii, buy one, hook it up and get some of the exercise videos and make a practice of using it together a few nights per week, then on one weekend day during good weather, go on an exercise outing as a family. Your children will have a great time and doing so as a family unit will be even more of a blessing to all of you.
The Bottom Line
Eating healthy and maintaining a state of optimum health not only benefits your heart, arteries and reduces the risk of many types of cancer, but it also is known to reduce the risk and can reduce pain, inflammation and the stiffness and agony of arthritis because it increases the blood supply to the muscles.
An additional benefit could be in lowering the risk and alleviate the symptoms of anxiety and depression.
How could you not be in a better mood if you feel good and look great? Get out there now and create optimal health through regular exercise.

10 Fun Winter Activities In Madison WisconsinSunday, January 16th, 2011
It's true, the weather is so blustery-cold that you'd rather stay indoors with a hot cocoa and a movie on most winter days. However, come late January / early February, cabin fever sets in for many folks. Luckily, Madison Wisconsin has a number of fun activities to help you beat the winter blues and pre-spring anxiety.
- For Families: Check out the Madison Children's Museum, which charges only $5 for admission. Unique exhibits include: Let's Grow, which teaches kids about gardening; Building Boom, where kids can be construction workers and build their ideal city; and Dig Into Dinosaurs, which develops kids' interest in archaeology and paleontology.

Healing Garden
Bristol, CT (9/3/09) – A groundbreaking ceremony was recently held to commemorate the creation of the Bristol Hospital Healing Garden, which will be located directly outside the entrance to the Bristol Hospital Cancer Care Center.
Donors, physicians, employees and invited guests gathered at the groundbreaking, which also coincided with an open house to showcase the expansion of the Cancer Care Center and welcome two new female oncologists, Dr. Sapna Khubchandani and Dr. Driola Brahaj, to the medical staff.
The expansion of the Cancer Care Center was in response to the tremendous increase in patient volumes since the Center opened in November 2007. The expansion of the Center includes the addition of several treatment rooms, construction of new physician offices to accommodate the addition of the two oncologists and a new employee break room.
Studies have indicated that gardens have been found to foster stress recovery by evoking positive feelings and reducing negative emotions. "A garden in a healing setting such as a hospital is designed to make people feel better," commented Kurt Barwis. "This beautiful setting will create an environment that is full of life all year long and provide a place where patients, visitors and employees can go and enjoy a peaceful environment." The Healing Garden, which was funded entirely with over $185,000 in donor support, is expected to be completed in November.
Marjorie Budge, a donor who also sat on the committee to help plan the garden, spoke to the crowd about why she chose to support this project. A cancer survivor, she talked about how she had to travel to Hartford for her care and was very pleased to support the cancer care center in Bristol that could provide excellent care so close to home. "Patients can just drive to Bristol Hospital and get the best care, and when they're having troubles, they can look out on the most beautiful vista," commented Budge.
