THERE ISN'T a lot to say, or ask. The scoreboard speaks of a 4-1 Flyers defeat to the Boston Bruins. History shrieks of the the Flyers' all-but-mathematical demise, down by three games to none. The players stick to their cliches like gum to the bottom of your shoe. And so, this column is written in that spirit, one sentence at a time.
The Flyers have a day to stew about their predicament before playing Game 4 and, as goaltender Brian Boucher said, "It's certainly not going to be chipper." They will attempt to steel themselves for the nearly impossible. They will try to keep looking ahead (so as not to wallow in what-ifs), but not too far ahead (so as not to be daunted by the enormity of the task). Neat trick, that.

This one goes out to all of the people out there who are on the "outside looking in".
You know who you are. You are the ones who at some point in your life, for one reason or another, went on a path that took you away from the kinds of paths your fellow peers took. You are the ones sitting in the back row, watching the action unfold but never getting yourself into the mix. You are the wallflower, leaning against the back wall with arms folded across your chest attentively listening in but never speaking unless spoken to. You are the deep ones, with a lot to say, but somehow don't seem to have whatever it is other people have that lets them just open up and talk to people and be "social" and this drives you crazy but you'll never let anyone else see it on your face.
If this at all sounds like you, you probably think this is just the way you are, and that this is the way you are going to remain for the rest of your life - and maybe you have even made peace with it or romaticized the idea of being the "outsider" and turned it into a part of who you are even though there is still some part of you, some small, tiny spark that says "No, I am more than this and I want to connect with people" but instead of listening to that little spark, you tend to push it down and dismiss it as fantasy or wishful thinking.
I am going to tell you a very personal story - a story that I very rarely tell, but may open up some new perspectives for you, the outsiders looking in. And by the end of the story perhaps you will reconsider some things about yourself and see that the fears that come up inside of you when even considering the possibility of engaging in a social life, or participating in a group setting, or simply sharing yourself with others and being comfortable, are simply indications that some very simple steps had been missed at some point in your crazy, outsider life - steps that with some understanding, awareness, and a bit of effort can easily be recovered.
An Outsider is Born
Throughout childhood I would often move back and forth between two countries. I was initially raised primarily by my aunts and grandparents in Taiwan and then returned to the US to begin my elementary schooling.
In the beginning I spoke no English - but it was quite remarkable how quickly and effortlessly I learned by simply being immersed in the language while I was in the US. I wanted to reach out and play with the other kids in my neighborhood and at that young age I did not have a conception of judging myself or thinking about whether or not the other kids would accept me if my language skills were poor or nearly non-existent. There was a kind of innocence to me back then - something that only later on in my life got replaced - but more on that later.
Throughout the years though I would be taken out of school and return to stay for many months in Taiwan - which meant that I never fully got a grade school education and would often be absent for much of the schooling. This also meant that I would be away from the friends that I had made and the American culture that I had gotten accustomed to and identified with.
When I was around 11 years old, we left the US once more but this time we stayed in Taiwan for a year. During this year the majority of my time was spent in my bedroom, very much isolated for most of the day except for the few moments of eating with family members. I was not able to read or write Chinese, and so I did not attend school while I was in Taiwan. Rather, I simply stayed at my bedroom and entertained myself with my toys, comic books, and video games - very much in my own little bubble.
I would often see other kids from outside of my window, looking down from the several storied flat where we lived. I felt detached from them - like I was locked up in my tower looking down. The most contact I managed to establish was to throw down from my window pictures and drawings that I had made to see if the kids down below would pick them up, react to them, comment about them. I never dared to venture out by myself to meet and interact with those kids on my own.
As the year progressed I found myself spending more and more time alone, in my own mind, creating pictures and fantasies and developing a lot of internalization in the absence of social living, all of this while also going through the onset of puberty. My mind began to become far more 'active' and 'vivid' so to speak - where I would constantly participate in backchat and internal dialogue while very seldom speaking with others.
At the end of that long stay, I returned to the US to finish the 8th grade - where once again there were other kids my age who spoke English and had been raised in the American culture that I had identified with. But this time however, I did not have that same point of "innocence" that I had when I was a child. This time, I had judgment and fear and comparison and all manner of fears and anxieties in dealing with other people after my period of relative isolation. Gone was that child who fearlessly went out to play with the "foreign" kids despite having no common language.
From that point on, I felt it was always a matter of having to "catch up" with everyone else - everyone else who had lived a more stable life, had a more well rounded education experience, had spent time socializing with others while I did not. I felt constantly awkward and judged myself for feeling awkward, which only made me act more.... awkward. Oh, did I mention I was also going through puberty? Yeah that didn't help my sense of confusion.
My voice was soft, quiet, sometimes quivering. I was often nervous and anxious and by hands and arms would shake like a caffeine addict going through withdrawal. My body was small, scrawny, and in some ways underdeveloped in comparison to others who had more active childhoods. It was hard to speak up, to ask for things, to seek assistance - the last thing I wanted was for more people to see this awkward, scrawny kid that I had become.
And thus, a loner/isolationist/outsider was born.
I, Outsider
I never felt that I could relate to other people. The things that they were involved in and interested in didn't seem as interesting or appealing to me. But this was also due to my own judgments about myself not fitting in and telling myself that I would never be accepted and that those things were just "not for me". I would for instance attempt to play sports with the other kids but because I never learned the rules of the sport or watched any sports on TV, I would make mistakes or do things that put my team into a bad position. I never quite got the hang of working within a team and did not understand how many of those dynamics worked. When the team I was on would tell me that I was no longer allowed to play with, I would simply internalize it as "That's okay, I don't like this anyway".
I focused more on my own pursuits and was a very introverted person, though of somebody were to reach out to me and speak with me I would have plenty to say. It simply did not move myself to engage with or open myself up to others. From High School on, I would live out this pattern of being a lone wolf so to speak - doing my own thing, not wanting to bother with friends, social outings, sports, or anything having to do with a normal life - which included going to school, going to college, earning a degree, getting into a career, settling down and having kids and a house, etc. All of that seemed strange to me and I told myself I wanted no part in it - even though within me a part of me always did.
I struggled with understanding HOW so many other people in my life seemed to be so good at... well, life. How did they manage to get into relationships, have children, get careers, move on with their lives? Why was it so difficult for me to develop those things? How can others so easily and effortlessly just seem to walk into a crowd and instantly make friends and be an "insider"? The answer eluded me for a long time - because the answer was always RIGHT IN MY FACE and I was too busy being an "outsider" to recognize the simplicity of it.
Fear as an Ally
I realized that my 'shyness' and aversion to social situations was not something bad or something to be ashamed of - it was the natural and logical defense mechanism for the kind of childhood I grew up in. I had abusive parents and did not establish communication or sharing skills at home. I did not spend my time with other children to learn/practice socialization skills. I did not participate in the things that the 'average' person would have participated in - and yet I was COMPARING myself to other people as though I had lived the lives they had.
I also realized that FEAR is simply a lack of understanding or relevant skill. It is a defense mechanism where we are trying to prepare for anything and everything because we do not know what to expect within a new situation, or when we are in a situation that involves things we don't understand and/or have not yet developed enough skill with. So within FEAR we try to compensate for our lack of awareness or skill by heightening everything - making everything MORE than what it is in case we miss something.
So when I looked again at the social situations where I find myself staying in the back rows, making myself scarce and barely present, but yet still wanting to be "part" of something and "contribute" something, I realized that what is holding me back is not fear itself, but what the fear was showing me: that I did not understand how certain things worked within social situations. And the reason I did not understand how certain things worked in social situations was because I did not have as much experience as others have - and simply had not developed the skills or learned the techniques due to my rather isolationist lifestyle and early childhood development.
BINGO! So I realized that I spent so much time comparing myself to other people who have had totally different lives compared to my own, and then judging myself for not being like others. All that I lacked was the will to go out there and DO it - the same way that my much younger childhood self simply decided to GO outside, play with the other kids who I wasn't able to communicate with, and just have fun and figure it out as I went rather than already shooting myself down for not being able to already do something I had not learned or practiced.
So - these days when an opportunity to do something new with a group or with new people in general comes up, I make it a point to push myself and remember the young child version of me that was fearless - because fear was totally unnecessary - and yes now and then certain social situations are still uncomfortable, but I do it regardless and each time I do, I become more natural, more skilled, and understand more how those particular social dynamics work - and you know what? The fears subside. And the plus side of it is - all of the depth that I had developed over the years now has an outlet, and boy have I got things to tell you.
For now, if any of you relate to my story of being an outsider or isolationist or experience fears or nervousness or even if like me your body/hands shake visibly and other people can see it - what I can tell you is that NOBODY ever judges you as much as you judge yourself. Seriously you might be offended at how little space you take up in other people's minds. Get yourself out there - slowly but surely. Start showing up at meetings. Then start participating a bit. Then keep doing it. And once you see that you have survived this horrifying socialization, SEEK OUT opportunities to express yourself and participate and come out of your comfort zone - and prepare to be surprised at how helpful people can be if you simply ask for support or spend some time to get to know them.
And for those who know of people who are isolationist but you can see them hanging around, kind of lingering, just barely there, know that it is very likely that they really really want to participate more but are not yet equipped with the skills to come out and engage with you. Sometimes they just need you to reach out to them first so they can see you aren't going to immediately judge them, and it takes the pressure off of them to have to break down the walls that they have been living behind for potentially many years - and be patient! These people can be very deep and like any deep body of water, it can take a while for things to surface - but when they do you may be surprised at what treasures and richness these deep people carry inside.

Adonis Stevenson-Tony Bellew Purse Bid on July 26th
The WBC have set a purse bid date of July 26 for Tony Bellew to challenge Adonis Stevenson for the light heavyweight World title.
Bellew claimed the mandatory challenger position by defeating Isaac Chilemba in a final eliminator at the O2 Arena on May 25, while Stevenson stunned former champ Chad Dawson with a first round KO to win the belt in his native Canada on June 8.
Stevenson has requested an interim bout against former IBF champ Tavoris Cloud in September but the WBC will only grant this if all parties are contracted to the Tony Bellew fight which must happen within 90 days of their bout.
Both are terrible so it's anyone's fight. A testment to how weak 175 is. The likes of Stevenson, Cloud and Bellew considering to be some of the top fighters in the Division.Comment by D-MiZe on 07-09-2013

Agnes Scott doesn't have as many major/minor options as larger schools, but the existing programs are strong. Professors and advisors are genuinely interested in and care about students. Most professors are reasonable enough to talk about rescheduling exams or extending due dates, and they encourage students to come to office hours and seek tutoring options. Advisors and professors are also willing to discuss self-designed majors with students.
The academics are intense due to the small classes and the interaction with the professors. The classes are filled with rich discussion and debate. The professors encourage. The advisement process is great as the professors tailor requirements around the student's goals.
I love the psychology program at Agnes Scott!! All of the professors are not only wonderful teachers, but interesting as well.
Popular study areas are in the dorm rooms, the library (mainly in the study carrels and private group study rooms), Mollie's, the Cyber Café, and the Luchsinger lounge.
The professors are very well versed in their field of teaching and they have a lot of patience. The professors also have good connections if you want a job or internship in the future.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
Agnes prides itself in its rigorous academics that challenge and engage students. With more than 30 undergraduate majors, nearly 30 minors, pre-professional programs, and dual-degree programs, Agnes is taking up the challenge to offer students a wide variety of classes as well as professional options. All of these programs are excellent and provide students with a rich liberal arts education. Class scheduling is fairly simple. Upperclasswomen have priority when it comes to choosing classes. It's an organized system that usually allows people to access the classes they would like to take. Once you get into the classes, the workload at Agnes is intense. There's rarely ever a break between papers and assignments, so it's important to learn how to manage time effectively.
Class sizes are small, so professors learn your name, and you'll receive a more hands-on approach to learning. Smaller class sizes allow students to personally know their peers, as well. The school's academic strength lies in its intelligent and gifted faculty. The professors Agnes hires are nothing but the best, and they exhibit their skills well in the classroom. Professors typically listen well to students and are able to communicate their expectations well. All of the professors are knowledgeable in their areas of study and are privy to share their knowledge through lectures in class as well as out-of-class talks. Professors are very personable. They often say hello to students outside of class and are active on campus.

Hello. I have a sizeable play in my steering wheel I'd like to get fixed. The car is a '72 SuperBeetle. Most of the front end has been upgraded/serviced in the last 2 years. I got new ball joint, new steering dampener, urethane bushing, upgraded sway bar, stress bar, new shocks, springs, etc. The handling is fantastic and I don't suffer from any "shimmies" nor instable behavior.
Just a 2 inches play in the steering wheels that prevent keepng the car in a straight line in windy condition!
Is there something that can be adjusted or I'll need some new steering box? Parts suggestions and sources?
Eric Desrochers wrote:
First, inspect the U-joints on the steering shaft for wear. This is a common problem.
Next, be sure the play isn't in the idler arm bushings. Another common problem.
If you get underneath and turn the steering shaft back and forth by hand, you can see if the pitman arm responds right away or whether the play is really in the box.
If it *is* the box, there is one adjustment screw on top. Tighten that maybe 1/4 turn and see if it makes any difference. Go easy here! There is a second adjustment which involves the preload on the shaft bearings. Strongly recommend getting the Bentley manual out to follow the delicate procedure.
I'm deliberately downplaying the box adjustment because it's real easy to ruin the box. Read the manual on this one...
Speedy Jim http://www.nls.net/mp/volks /
A quick question for the group. My '63 is starting to exhibit "front end troubles" in the form of a lot of play in the steering wheel and generally creaking and moaning a lot when going over bumps and stuff. Gary looked at it with me the last time he was over and said it would need some attention soon. I know next-to-nothing about suspensions (or much else on the car, for that matter.) My question is: I'm thinking of doing all I can myself to the front-end and I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to completely remove the front-end before I start diagnosing problems or would that be a bad idea? When I say completely remove it, I mean unbolt the (I think there's 4 of them) bolts that hold the main assembly in place? I was thinking of removing the front-end to work on it so that I could keep it in my garage where I'd be partially isolated from the weather. Thanks in advance for input. I think I'll start out by addressing the play in the steering-wheel. Probably shouldn't pull the whole front-end to do this?
was sitting in a corner eating his Xmas pie stuck in his thumb and pulled out a plum and began to run off at the mouth like so:

No, don't remove the axle beam.
'63 has a king/link pin front end (as opposed to ball joint). Wear and sloppy/creaky steering is often caused on these by worn king/link pin bushings. You can get a feel for it by jacking up one front wheel at a time. Violently rock the tire top and bottom. A good front end won't show any noticeable play in the wheel.
There could be play in the steering box (or in the tie rod ends). With the wheels on the ground, turn the steering shaft by hand (grab the rubber coupling). Watch what the pitman arm and the tie rods do. You should be able to see where any play originates. (Do this test with the steering straight ahead.)
Speedy Jim http://www.nls.net/mp/volks /
OK, thanks Speedy. I'm gonna try these tests this weekend coming up if I can make the time to get to it. I have tried the test before where I jack up each wheel/tire on the front end and pushed and pulled hard on the top to see if things would act sloppy. They acted sloppier than an overweight high-school girl getting drunk for the first time on prom night. Both sides showed "noticeable play"...just like the previously mentioned girl does. ;-) I'll try the steering shaft test to help figure out where to go from there. What special tools would I need in a "worst-case" scenario to do this work myself? I have a press, but I mean just a manual el-cheapo press. Not some hydraulic setup. Just the lever-arm thingie that you pull down on to operate it, like a drill press kinda. Thanks again.

What special
Re-bushing the spindles is a real chore. I don't recommend doing it with a manual press. Besides which you need the precision reamer to size the new bushings.
Look around for a VW shop that will do it or a mail-order parts house.

I was able to tighten mine up on the rail I have. I had a web page up about it at one time. If I find it I'll post it again for you.

I still wanna know if I can buy the silly tool that goes into the strange sized/shaped steering adjuster socket. Too lazy to make one.
What silly tool? Gotta link?

First of all, you're talking about adjusting the end play on the steering box, right?? At the end of the box - opposite side of steering box from where the shaft enters the box - is an adjustment that's locked in place by a large inside diameter nut. You have to loosen the large nut (I use a small monkey - pipe - wrench for this purpose. Actually adjusting the end play normally requires a special tool. But, I've found an end around for this.
If you go to Ace Hardware - in the lawnmower equipment section - you'll find a combination sparkplug wrench and screw driver. On the end opposite the screw driver blade is welded a 2-sided "socket" that fits 2 sizes of spark plugs - except that the sockets are 6 sided on the outside surface as well as inside. The whole thing looks a little like an 6-sided corncob pipe on top and a smaller version on the bottom. (Can you picture what I'm trying to describe???) The larger socket just happens to fit exactly and snuggly inside the end play adjuster. It fits perfectly! You simply use the screwdriver portion as the handle to turn the "adjuster"!

Embarking on a program of skin care will bring you rewards, both in appearance and health. In today's world, your skin is exposed to many contaminants and toxins. Cleansing it is essential, and Lifecell Anti-aging creams could be useful in fighting any signs of aging. The following tips will give you a range of approaches for making your skin radiantly healthy.
To protect yourself from the sun, you should use sun screen. However, applying sun screen can actually be tricky. If you do not do it properly, you will clog your pores. Use a soft sponge to gently apply the sun screen, and allow it to penetrate your skin instead of staying at the surface.
Your face is not the only indicator of your age. Do not forget about your neck and hands! Use Lifecell Anti-aging creams – lifecellantiageing on your face, neck and hands. Keep the skin on your neck and hands youthful by exfoliating them once a week and moisturizing them with an SPF of at least 25 every day. Exfoliation will help increase cell turnover and the SPF will help prevent dark spots.
Exfoliate your skin longer, not harder. Many people often exfoliate too much or not enough. To maintain a healthy balance between the two, just exfoliate your skin longer. Be sure not to scrub too hard. Scrubbing too hard can damage your skin. It can cause small abrasions and considerable redness.
To instantly refresh dry or damaged skin, try using a mask. There are many facial masks on the market that can nourish and improve the appearance of your skin. Regular use of facial masks can clean your pores, lead to fewer breakouts, and a single use will leave your skin looking smoother and softer.
To give your skin a more youthful appearance, you should use products containing Vitamin A. An example is the Lifecell Anti-aging cream. Vitamin A has been clinically proven to help age spots fade and to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. While Vitamin A becomes less effective when exposed to sunlight, you can see rapid results if you use it at night.
If you have been using a mister of water for your face, make sure to moisturize as well using Lifecell Anti-aging creams. The water will evaporate on your skin which will dry it out. Moisturizing after words will prevent that from happening. You can also find misting products that also include moisturizers for a one stop solution.
Decide what you want to accomplish with your skin care regiment. Are you concerned with aging, specific skin issues like acne, dealing with large pores or maybe bags and shadows? Knowing what your goal is will help you make the right choices in proper skin care with the right research, including the use of Lifecell Anti-aging creams.
Wash your face twice at night if you wear a lot of makeup. To keep your skin clear and healthy, make sure you are getting everything off. Use a gentle makeup remover on your face first. Afterwards, wash your face again. If possible, use a skin rejuvenating facial cleansing product.
To get rid of dead skin on your face, use an exfoliating scrub. Dead skin can build up over time and your skin will look dry and dull. A gentle scrub that exfoliates these cells can revel radiant and fresh skin. Also, exfoliating is a great way to clean your pores and minimize their appearance.
To help your skin look its best, consider cutting back on the amount of milk you drink. Studies have shown that individuals who drink large quantities of milk experience more break-outs. Milk contains hormones, which can exacerbate skin problems. Try using soy milk as an alternative to cow's milk.
Hopefully, you will come away from reading this article with some new ways to help you to care for your skin to make it look beautiful, and that may include Lifecell Anti-aging creams applications. All that is needed now is to apply this knowledge in a way that suits you. After all, you are the only one "inside your skin" and these suggestions need to work for you.

I loved this tea! It reminded me of Lipton's Citrus Iced Tea with a mint kicker. :) The ginger ale is a nice addition with the fizz and ginger that flavored the tea even more. This was a wonderful drink to cool me down on a hot summer afternoon. Made and reviewed for KC's Recipe Tag Game.
What a great mint tea Loof. I really enjoyed this refreshing drink. Loved the addition of the gingerale, the fizz was a nice touch to the overall drink. Using mint teabags and fresh lemon really gave the tea a nice zing and excellent flavor. Thanks for sharing :)
Quite simply,this is just totally delicious and completely refreshing! A wonderfully simple drink recipe,that I look forward to using come the summer!! Cheers loof !!
I couldn't get fresh mint so used a 50/50 mix of peppermint tea and the regular stuff. The lemon and ginger ale are wonderful. Splenda was used for the sugar along with diet ginger ale. A pure delight.
delicious! I used lemon flavored tea and sugar-free ginger-ale I loved this and will make again, thanks for sharing this great summer drink loofie!
I used peppermint tea and enjoyed with the ginger ale! Thanks loof! Made for 123 Hit Wonders.
Great refreshing recipe! It didn't say what type of tea so I used spearmint which is my favorite mint flavor. I can't wait for summer to arrive so I can enjoy this on my deck outside. Made for the "Potluck Tag (January) - Bring a Friend Event!!!"

Mark Sanchez passed his physical on Thursday, and the former New York Jets quarterback will sign a contract with the Eagles on Friday, a source close to the situation said.
Sanchez and the Eagles have agreed to terms. Fox Sports reported that his contract is for one year and worth more than $4 million.
The 27-year-old Sanchez, who spent his first five seasons in the NFL with the New York Jets, arrived in Philadelphia on Wednesday night and spent part of the next day at the NovaCare Complex getting examined.
He missed all of last season with a torn labrum and also had knee surgery in 2010 to repair a patella ligament. Jets coach Rex Ryan said Tuesday at the NFL owners meetings that Sanchez was ahead of schedule in his recovery from shoulder surgery.

Uninsured rate drops as health law rolls out, poll shows
Washington — The uninsured rate dropped modestly this month as expanded coverage rolled out under President Barack Obama's health care law, a major survey released Thursday found.
The Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index found that the uninsured rate for U.S. adults dropped by 1.2 percentage points in January, to 16.1%. That would translate to roughly 2 million to 3 million people gaining coverage.
The closely watched poll combines the scope and depth found in government surveys with the timeliness of media sampling. Pollsters interview 500 people a day, 350 days a year. The survey can be an early indicator of broad shifts in society. The health care results were based on more than 9,000 interviews, about nine times as many as in a standard national poll.
"The uninsured rate had been expected to come down as the Affordable Care Act was implemented," said Frank Newport, Gallup's editor-in-chief. "That would be the most reasonable hypothesis."
Unemployed sign up
The biggest change was for unemployed people, a drop of 6.7 percentage points. That was followed by a 2.6 percentage-point decline for nonwhites. Traditionally both groups are far more likely to be uninsured than the population as a whole.
The survey found no appreciable change among young adults ages 18 to 34. Members of that coveted low-cost demographic have been ambivalent about signing up so far.
Women saw a decline of 1.9 percentage points, about three times greater than the 0.6 percentage-point drop for men. Uninsured rates also fell all along the income ladder, with those making between $36,000 and $89,999 seeing the greatest drop, of 1.8 percentage points.
The survey was based on telephone interviews from Jan. 2 to 19 with a random sample of 9,145 adults age 18 and older in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. For results based on the total national sample, the margin of sampling error is plus or minus 1 percentage point, larger for subgroups.
Time to enroll
Major elements of the health care law took effect with the new year. Virtually all Americans are now required to get covered or risk fines. Insurers can no longer turn away people with health problems. New state-based markets are offering taxpayer-subsidized insurance to middle-class households.
The White House called the poll good news. "It shows that the law is working," said David Simas, a senior adviser.
Newport said it could take a calendar quarter, or three months, to discern a full trend. Other factors could also be behind the shift, including an improving economy. "It's a drop, but not extraordinary," he said. "The glass is half full for proponents of the Affordable Care Act because things are moving in the right direction. But the glass is half empty because things haven't moved much."
The office of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) pointed out that according to the poll, the adult uninsured rate is about the same now as when Obama took office in 2009. It has gone as high as 18.6% during his term.

Take Home Points on the Best Warm-up for Sprint Swimming Performance
Warm-up (WU) is performed by nearly all swimmers with the goal of increasing heart rate (HR), blood flow, body temperature, and preparing the body for competition/practice. However, many swimmers use an extremely long WU compared to their race distance, potentially causing fatigue. A highly pertinent study looked at what was the best warm-up for sprint swimming performance.
What was done
Sixteen NCAA Division 1 swimmers (M=8, F=8; ~19.9 years; mean male time ~21.96 s, mean female time ~24.35 s) used three WUs before performing a 50-yard freestyle time trial. The three warm-ups were
- No WU
- Short WU (50-yard at 40% of max and 50-yard at 90% max)
- Regular WU (~1300 m)
The mean 50-yard time was significantly faster after the regular WU when compared to the short WU. However, individual data indicated 19% of the participants performed their best 50-yard after a short WU, 37% after no WU, and 44% after regular WU.
HR was significantly higher after regular WU, compared to no WU. No differences were noted in reaction time, rating of perceived exertion post 50-yard, dive distance, or stroke count across the different trials.
Regular WU increases HR more than no WU and causes significantly better times than a short WU. However, the principle of individuality is key, as some athletes performed best times with short or no WU [very surprising, as these were not the swimmers typical WU approach and novelty typically hinders performance].
Practical Implication
The average regular WU is more likely to be the ideal WU for NCAA Division 1 swimmers. However, no WU or a short WU may benefit up to 50% of these swimmers. A variety of WU variations is necessary to determine which WU is ideal for 50-yard performance, as one would expect the fastest time with their accustomed WU, no matter the distance. These findings are extremlely interesting, as many coaches wonder about an ideal WU protocol if no WU pool is available. For some swimmers, no WU pool may maximize performance.
In the future, out of water dynamic stretching protocols should be compared, as it seems 5 – 10 minutes of dynamic stretching improves running performance, swimming studies are needed (Turki 2011).

Randy Shaw: After last week's budget deal, it is clear that Barack Obama, the Democratic Party, and progressives would all benefit from the President facing a primary challenge in 2012.
President Obama: MIA
Walter Brasch: Good presidents do what is best for the country. Great presidents, however, do not only what is best for the people, but are also willing to speak to the courage of their beliefs, of their principles, even if it may be unpopular among many of their constituencies.
Elections a Setback for Peace
Tom Hayden: The peace bloc – activist groups, anti-war Congress members, writers and artists, here and across the NATO – can exercise a massive drag against the war-making machine through 2012 as long as the wars remain deeply unpopular.
November 2010 Election Predictions
Randy Shaw: In 2008, my optimistic predictions of an Electoral College landslide for Barack Obama assumed a record turnout; today, progressives are far less energized, and the electorate is driven by anger and fear rather than hope.
Suppose Your Actions Swung the Election
Paul Loeb: Suppose the phone calls you made, money you donated, doors you knocked on, and conversations you initiated helped swing a critically close race, or two or three.
Don't Let the Russ Feingolds Go Down for the Sins of the Blanche Lincolns
Paul Loeb: To stand back in the next critical weeks and hand victory to the most greed-driven interests in America seems an unconscionable moral lapse. Far better to help make what difference you can in electing the electoral allies you most respect, and then keep on with all the other organizing that needs to be done.
Democrats' Little Problem
Tom Degan: But as I've noted too many times to count in recent years, the "party of FDR" has developed a positive genius for taking a bottle of finely aged, twelve-year-old scotch and turning it into donkey piss.
Bold Feingold Could Lead the Way Out of Afghanistan
The challenge for Feingold and other Democrats today is to dump the Afghanistan war without dumping President Barack Obama and the party's congressional majorities.
Obama Betrays Liberals
America's liberals stand betrayed. Their new president, the one they sweated to elect — a brilliant, charismatic leader with a professional background in constitutional law — has transmogrified himself from the champion who denounced in his campaign the illegalities of the Bush White House into a president bent on their perpetuation. Liberals are stunned by […]
One Step Forward, Two Steps Toward Monarchy
It has become almost commonplace, since the release last week of seven "legal" opinions written in 2001 and 2002 by the Justice Department, to remark that unbeknownst to us we came within an inch of dictatorship. And with President Obama announcing an end to torture and a new policy on signing statements, it is extremely […]

Krazy Glue Sued for Wood Claim
Written by Pat's Papers | Monday, 29 July 2013 7:52 AM
Is it good for wood or not? Anyone who's ever been confused by the claims on a package of Krazy Glue can now rest a little easier. The Detroit Free-Press says the company is being sued for falsely advertising their product by claiming it's good for wood on the front of the package and then claiming the opposite on the back. The class action lawsuit is the brainchild of a retired teacher, who says she's doing it for the principal not for the money.

IN 1997, JOHN T. REED wrote the book on football clock management. I know this because the title of his book is "Football Clock Management." He said that members of most NFL and college coaching staffs, including the Eagles', own a copy by now.
(Insert snide comment here.)
Reed has some unique, and some would say radical, theories about this business. He believes, for instance, that the team with less than a 50 percent probability of winning should be in some form of hurry-up offense from the start of the game, and that the likely winner should be playing some form of a slowdown. A man with a Harvard MBA, a background in the military and a love of the game as a high school coach in California, Reed has studied and written about the business of time and football because he always felt there was a dearth of real knowledge on the subject.

Boa localização e excelente serviço. Pertinho da Torre Eiffel e Invilides. Vários restaurantes por perto e próximo à duas estações de metrô. Quarto pequeno, mas aconchegante e o atendimento não poderia ter sido melhor.

Historical Traveler Reviews Giltjes Hotel Celle
Good but not great
Me and My girlfriend stayed here for 5days in september, we booked the hotel through expedia, we flew september the 11th and returned the 15th. The rooms were small and clean and the hotel staff were plesent, we had a second floor room which gave us a great view of the metro, we thought it would be noisey but all though in the night you couldn't hear it, The bathroom was small but nice, room service each day, so new towels everyday and new sheets on the bed, Each room has a plasma TV mounted on the wall at the bottom of the bed but only 2 english channels, CNN and BBC news so not alot of choice, You could also see the eiffel tower from our room. The hotel isn't in a bad location for the price, eiffel tower is less than 5minutes away, shops and restaurants are all around the hotel and for the kids a Mc Donalds. The metro is right next to the hotel, it'll take you anywhere and is a cheap way to get around. Overall the hotel for the price and it is only a 3star hotel so don't be expecting great things, So it was good so i do reccomend it.
thank you for taking the time to share your positive opinion and recommendation. We will be pleased to welcome you again in the future. Warmest regards.
Not bad!
Nine students who just graduated high school and I stayed at the Hotel Eiffel Segur for five days in June. Although the pictures are misleading (for one, it's a Best Western now), the accomodations are nice. Given that we were ten loud teenagers, the hotel was very nice although the conceirges were not too helpful and did not speak very good English. The air conditioning was on and off, but the maid service was diligent and effective and the rooms were nice. The location is great-- down the street from an amazing bakery and a Metro station. The price was good, too, so I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a good base for seeing all of Paris and isn't looking for any over-the-top hotel.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay.
Thank you for chosing Best Western Eiffel Segur.
Good Location, dirty room
We stay in this hotel during 5 days and we don't recommend. The localization is very good, but the rooms are dirty and very small. The bathroom was remodelled, but it is bad to take a shower.
Thank you for taking the time to share your comments. We are sorry for the disturbances you have had during your stay. Lots of improvements have been done to welcome our guests in best conditions (wooden floor, new bathrooms, brand new magnetic key system, safe, flat tv screens, ...). We would be pleased to welcome you again in the future.
Good value for a good downtown Paris location
This is a clean, recently remodled older hotel with a not-too-bad price. The location is a good starting point for Paris sight-seeing as well.
If you are expecting 5-star accomodations, you will not be happy. But again, the hotel is clean, my room was well lit and the bathrooms are nice. One slight issue I might have is no shower curtain or equivalent in the shower. You have to be careful or the bathroom floor can get quite wet.
The bed was comfortable in my room and the sheets and pillows were white and clean.
I have posted some pictures of my room for reference.
thank you for your nice review. We hope to see you again. Warmest Regards.
Not as bad as some say..but not great
This hotel is no where near as bad as described. It does seem to be in the middle of being rebuilt though. Also if you are the sort of person who wants pampered luxury, go elsewhere. The room I stayed in was clean and had recently been refurbished, and had a decent flat screen TV installed. I get the feeling real effort is being made to improve a dark dingy hotel into something better. In the daytime the receptionist was friendly and efficient, at night slothsome and inefficient (but I talking 3am!).
Don't avoid like the plague if you can get a good price (we did via the Eurostar price), though maybe wait a few months until it is finished
Great little hotel
Another mother and daughter hit town. We totally enjoyed Hotel Segur. The staff was very friendly and eager to help in any way. Our room was cute with a nice view of the courtyard. It was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is walking distance to many things we wanted to see. It was perfect for our purpose. I will recommend it to others.
We thank you for sharing your opinion. We are glad you did appreciate your stay with us. Best regards.
Is all 3 star hotel in Frace like this?
I don't know if all the 3 star hotel in Paris are all that bad.
they didn't have a bell boy, which we had to carry all our big luggages ourselves through the narrowest stairs, no airconditions(thank god it wasn't summer), no slippers and the carpets seems like hundreds of years old,no refrigeraters, and the 'continental breakfast' includes one glass of orange juice,coffee and a piece of bread and there was a woman watching next to us if anyone takes more then that and would charge after someone has taken some stupid little cheese or a milk that's not included (why can't they separate what you can take and not take for free so there won't be any arguements with people who don't know which i had to see every morning ppl arguing with that women)
anyways, it was such a disspointment! there was a constuction going on and did not even notice us before so it was noisy and dust everywhere. they would just shut the water down while i was still taking a shower saying they didn't know if anyone was using the water.. uh hello? isn't a hotel suppose to run the water??? the housekeeping lady would yell at us in French to get out of the room so she can clean it while we wanted to have some rest in the hotel till late afternoon cuz we were tired that day..
we were out of the toilette paper but didn't refill everytime..
to mention a few.
we inform you that major improvements have been done since 2005. We are now part of Best Western, completely none smoking, with rooms decorated in warm colors, with wooden floor, new bathrooms, flat screens, coffee facilities, etc. We will be pleased to welcome you again.
How this hotel got any stars is beyond me...but 3 ????
This was quite simply the smallest darkest hotel room that I have EVER stayed in (the main light was behind the curtains!). The plastic kettle and plastic cups looked decidedly dirty, and the brown hessian wallpaper appeared to be older than I am. The 'view' of the 'courtyard breakfast area' actually resembled a builders yard, and decorating and buliding work was going on the floors above and below our room, and they started drilling and hammering at 8am Saturday morning. I sepnt as little time as possible in the hotel, but the surrounding area was more like a slum than the wonderful restaurant populated area that is depicted in the previous review. True, it is close (ish) to the Eiffel Tower, but I think 500 metres is pushing it a bit. It did have wireless internet access though.....but no shower cubicle !
Mother and Daughter hit town!
My daughter and I had brilliant time. Our hotel..well! Clean, friendly, helpful, nicely situated right by Cambronne Metro. Within easy reach of everything. Brilliant restaraunts within walking or staggering distance.(New place to eat: just past the Shell station L'Amaryllis. JEAN (the chef) and Sebastian is front of house, very new and still making a name for themselves, but food!!!) Only one draw back, No tea making facilities. Everything else absolutely brilliant. Go and enjoy your stay.
thank you for your nice review. Tea and coffee-making facilities are now provided. Lots of changes have been done since your stay: the hotel is completely none smoking, rooms are decorated with warm colors, they have wooden floor, new beddings, new bathrooms, flat screens, etc.
Looking forward to welcoming you again.

Travel Blogs from Paris
Travel day to Paris and the first night.
Before leaving England I wanted to mention a few things about our trip so far. Firstly the weather has been fantastic i.e. NO rain! Temperatures were between 10-14 each day and when the sun was shining it felt even warmer. The hotel was also fantastic, all the staff were friendly and polite. Speaking of service workers, I'd say 90% of the service …
Paris, the END
... bag with all my cards stuck down between the console and the seat. Needless to say I felt as though a ton of weight was lifted off of my shoulders.
We got the car returned without any hitches and Eric was able to get on the internet again so all in all it was a great day.

Palace of the Sun King
... half an hour to exchange our prepurchased voucher for a ticket and were no better off than if we bought the ticket there. Not that I would recommend the mini train as it only has three stops and during the day there were long line ups at those in the sun. The only part of the package that was worthwhile was the lunch at La Petite Venice but I don't know how much that cost. We could have walked up and been given a table just as quickly without the voucher so it didn't save any ...
Exploration and Ice Cream
... brie. Now, I thought that I didn't like brie, but it turns out that I just
don't like brie from Cub. This was delicious, buttery, smooth, and had clearly
never seen a refrigerator. For dessert, I went to the famous Berthillon for ice
cream. I love the tiny little scoop they give you, it just seems so French. I
got salted butter caramel…mmm. I also had my first full conversation in French.
The waiter and I talked about the weather and ...
Notre Dame
... buildings, and statues that seem to be everywhere.. Had to have lunch at an outside cafe.. Then back to hotel for relaxing afternoon. Enjoyed the free coffee/snacks put on by the Hotel from 1pm to 9 pm every afternoon... Very nice. Took my book down and spent a lovely couple of hours reading, drinking coffee, and 'snacking'. Pizza was dinner from the little 'mum and dad' store just down the road.. Dinner for only EUR 11.50... Good deal. ...
