I'm a fitness pro who has been training clients almost daily since 1997 and I try to pass my years of experience on to you. Recently, I had a big epiphany when I realized how much I've learned from my clients. Here are some secrets I've learned:
Fitness Tips
The early bird gets the worm. The most balanced and successful of my clients work out first thing in the morning. They literally take care of themselves first and then move on to the rest of their day. These folks tend to be the CEOs or other driven types who are making a real difference in the world. But their first daily priority is themselves. How cool is that?
You stay skinny by not eating too much. Exercise is important to maintain joint and cardiovascular health. It will keep you toned and looking svelte in your little black dress. But the real secret to keeping your dress size in the single digits is to avoid putting the calories in your body in the first place. Eat in moderation and remember that it's okay to have a "forbidden food" every once in a while, just never overdo it. Really, it works like a charm.
Consistency is the most important thing. Showing up is 90 percent of success. That quote, or a close variation of it, is from Woody Allen, and he doesn't exactly look like he has a gym membership. No matter how you choose to work your schedule, commit to it. This is true for a fitness program, but really it's for your whole life. My clients who consistently show up are the happiest and have the best results.
Life Tips
Friendships endure and change over time. I have three clients, now in their late sixties, who have been friends since pre-school! They have drifted in and out of contact over the years as boyfriends have come and gone, then husbands, then children. Once they all reached the empty nest stage they found they still had lots in common and fitness was just one of them. I love to see how they interact with each other. Keep those friendships, even if it's just barely, until you have more time to devote to them.
You catch more flies with honey. Sometimes schedules get messed up and my studio and staff try to stay on top of it, but if an instructor calls in sick or there's a communication snafu…it happens. When it does, we bend over backwards for the people who treat us well and hope we don't get yelled at too badly by the people who don't take kindly to trip-ups. The nice people, in the end, get more from us as instructors than the not-as-nice clients.
You can build a community anywhere. One of the big surprises of my Pilates studio is the sense of community we have there. We trade recipes, movie reviews, plumbing referrals, even parenting advice. Some of our clients have met randomly in a trio equipment class and become the best of friends. It's a joy watching a client go through her pregnancy and have all the other clients who come at the same time cheer her on and even leave baby gifts after they've delivered. I love that.
What have you learned from your clients or customers? What have you learned from coworkers? Would love to share some stories here. :-)

Cellular retailer donating supplies to local teachers
- Written by THE BELLEFONTAINE EXAMINER STAFF
The Cellular Connection, 2244 S. Main St., will be donating supply packs filled with glue, pencils, pens, markers, erasers, paper, tissue boxes and more, to 10 preselected local teachers from 6 to 7 p.m. Sunday.
Across the county, the company is donating these supply packs valued at $80 each to a total of 3,500 teachers through its Teachers Rock Supply Giveaway. For each teacher reached, an estimated 30 students will benefit.
Residents in the commu- nity of each participating store have also joined the cause by rounding their purchases up to the nearest dollar with the difference going directly toward the giveaway.
"Every year, teachers spend an average of $1.3 billion of their own money on school supplies, and on top of that, budget cuts continue to lead to less support for our teachers," said Scott Moorehead, TCC president and CEO. "At TCC, we believe teachers deserve more. We believe that teachers rock. This is one more way we are giving back through our Culture of Good, and we're proud to be able to do it."

Unlike many other celebrities and public figures who make money practically out of nothing, athletes well deserve their huge paychecks. They work hard to achieve the desired results, results that not only speak highly about themselves, but also about the country and team they represent. The total earnings of athletes are not only derived from their salaries, though. Bonuses, appearance fees, prize money, endorsement and licensing all add up to make them rich. Here are the top 5 richest athletes in the world as of 2012.
1. Floyd Mayweather
Floyd Mayweather, who also goes by the nickname Money, is the highest paid athlete in the world at the moment. The nickname suits the boxer like a charm, since he has earned no less than $85 million just for two fights. The 35-year-old may be the richest athlete in the world, but he cannot enjoy his money at the moment, since he is retained in Las Vegas for domestic battery.
2. Manny Pacquiao
Earning $62 million this year from both salaries and endorsements, boxer Manny Pacquiao is the second richest athlete of this year. Even though he lost the WBO welterweight title to Timothy Bradley, Manny still managed to earn significant amounts of money. Endorsement contracts with Nike, Monster Energy, Hennessy and HP also contributed to this sum. Boxing must be a profitable sport!
3. Tiger Woods
Golfing legend Tiger Woods lost his spot as the richest athlete in the world after 10 years of holding the supremacy. Even though he was ranked as the wealthiest person in sports from 2001 until 2011 inclusively, Woods was only ranked third this year. His career started to fade following the golfer's tumultuous divorce. However, he still earned $59.4 million this year, out of which $55 million came from his contract with Nike.
4. LeBron James
Basketball star LeBron James is the fourth wealthiest athlete in the world as of 2012, topping all the other 12 basketball players included in the top. The Miami Heat player had total earnings of $53 million this year. Besides his salary, the 27-year-old basketball player made a lot of money after scoring a contract with Fenway Sports Group. Other endorsement campaigns he has made include companies such as Nike, Coca-Cola, and McDonald's.
5. Roger Federer
ATP World No. 1 tennis player Roger Federer is a lucky gay. He was a blossoming career, he is the best at what he does, he has a beautiful family, and is the fifth richest athlete in the world. This year, Federer earned $52.7 million. The 30-year-old'a endorsements include Rolex, Nike, Credit Suisse, and Wilson.
These are the top 5 richest athletes in the world as of 2012. The other athletes who made the top 10 are:
9. Kobe Bryant
10. Phil Mickelson
11. David Beckham
12. Cristiano Ronaldo
13. Peyton Manning

New York State Pays Tribute to Two Members of Emergency Medical Services Who Died in the Line of Duty in 2012
Annual NYS EMS Memorial Dedication Honors Deceased Heroes and nearly 60,000 EMS Professionals Serving Communities Across the State
ALBANY, N.Y. (May 21, 2013) – New York State today honored two EMS professionals who died in service to others in 2012 – Eric Monty of Mooers, and David Restuccio of Staten Island – and also paid tribute to more than 60,000 EMS personnel at the annual New York State EMS Memorial Dedication Ceremony at the Empire State Plaza in Albany.
The names of the two fallen professionals were added to the "Tree of Life" Memorial during a ceremony featuring State Health Commissioner Nirav R. Shah, M.D., M.P.H., and other state officials. The ceremony was attended by the families of the EMS Members as well as hundreds of EMS personnel and community members.
"Today we reflect on two fallen heroes as we honor their service and sacrifice," Lieutenant Governor Robert Duffy said. "In their memory, we also pay respect to the thousands of volunteers and professionals who respond to an emergency call across New York State. These brave men and women truly personify the best traits of society -- bravery, dedication and a commitment to helping others – and as we honor their colleagues who died in service to others, we also offer our thanks and prayers for their safety."
Commissioner Shah said, "The commitment of our EMS professionals is matched only by their character and willingness to put their own lives at risk to help others. We are saddened by the loss of these two brave men and offer our condolences to their families, friends, and fellow workers. On this special day, we come together to express our gratitude to all EMS personnel and pay special tribute to two individuals whose spirit carries on in all who are committed to helping others."
The EMS professionals honored today are:
- Eric Stefan Monty, 45, a member of the Mooers Fire Department and a driver for the Champlain/Mooers Ambulance Service. After responding to an emergency dispatch just after midnight on November 27, 2012, Mr. Monty suffered cardiac arrest while transporting the patient to the local hospital and died at the scene. Mr. Monty served with the ambulance company for two years.
- David Restuccio, 58, a paramedic for Staten Island University Hospital and a retired FDNY EMS lieutenant. While transporting a patient to the hospital on the evening of August 27, 2012, another vehicle crashed into the ambulance that Mr. Restuccio was driving. He died from injuries suffered in the crash. Mr. Restuccio worked as a paramedic since 2001. He served 25 years with the FDNY (1981 - 2006) and played an active role in 9/11 response and recovery efforts.
There are more than 60,000 Emergency Medical Services professionals in New York State, which include certified first responders, EMTs, paramedics, emergency physicians and nurses, 9-1-1 dispatch staff, and other individuals who provide pre-hospital patient care and transport.
New Yorkers are served by nearly 2,000 ambulance and emergency response agencies that provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) or Basic Life Support (BLS) services.
Each year, New York State hosts the EMS Memorial Dedication Ceremony in conjunction with National EMS Week, which this year is May 19-25.

AD Pirous: Islamic painting pioneer
Carla Bianpoen
At 80 years, Pirous, an artist considered a pioneer of Islamic painting in Indonesia, is as energetic and fit as ever before. Speaking at Selasar Sunaryo, Bandung, to hundreds of guests who had come for his 80th birthday celebration on March 11, he vividly recalled the moment of his epiphany.
It was at the Met (Metropolitan Museum of Art), he revealed. He was studying in America (1969-70) visiting as many museums and art venues as possible. Then, at the Met in New York, he was struck by the beauty of calligraphy in works from the Middle East. It took him back to his childhood in Meulaboh, Aceh, where Arabic calligraphy abounded. There and then, he knew he had found his identity, and his destiny. From then on Pirous's art focus was on Arabic calligraphy.
Kenneth M. George, professor of anthropology at UW-Madison, the US, who wrote extensively on Pirous, says that AD Pirous (short for Abdul Djalil Pirous) is a pioneer in melding Western abstraction with traditional Islamic forms and themes, notably Koranic calligraphy, which portrays Koranic verses. "When he began to combine abstraction and Koranic calligraphy in the 1970s, his influence quickly spread. He awakened fellow Muslims to contemporary painting, and helped them think of themselves as an art-producing community." Nevertheless, no significant breakthrough in Islamic painting has been recorded after Pirous and exhibitions have been scarce, although Pirous helped organize festivals of Islamic art.
The exhibition "Ja'u Timu" (Mengarahlah ke Timur or Head East), an exhibition of works from his personal collection, which is held to mark his 80th birthday at Selasar Sunaryo, Bandung (until 8 April), is therefore a rare opportunity to see, explore and feel the spirit of Islamic art, a term that is for many people as unclear and debatable as the term Contemporary Art. As evident in the show, not all works are calligraphic or have koranic texts, but there is a sense of the spiritual that can't be missed. Among Pirous' most recent works are the mixed media paintings on which broken ceramic pieces of the early centuries caughed up by the Tsunami are "glued" as stirring marks of Nature's wrath.
The title of the show refers to the advice that 14-year-old Pirous received from his dying father, to go East. As he did go East literally, when he was young, in later years the advice came to have a more philosophic content linked to light, the source of light and enlightenment. But in a more realistic context, Pirous urges artists to delve into the treasures and the norms of the East instead of looking to the West. "Maybe one has to know the West first before being able to understand the East. Or one may first appreciate the Eastern reality and find the West within."
Pirous art has now reached its pinnacle. Pirous says what matters in his art works now is more "what to say, rather than how to say [it]".
Pirous was born in Meulaboh, a town on the west coast of Aceh, the northern-most province/state on the island of Sumatra. He was the fifth of six children in a relatively well-to do family. He went to school in Meulaboh's elite, Dutch-run elementary school while also receiving religious instruction on reciting the Koran and writing Arabic. In 1950, at the age of 18, Pirous left Aceh for the North Sumatran city of Medan to continue his studies at that city's first-rate middle schools and high schools.
He did well in school and art was what he did best. His middle-school art teacher urged him to consider art school. But it was the exhibition of modernist painters like Zaini, Handrio, Nashar, Widayat and Sudjojono who came from Jakarta and Yogyakarta that spurred his desire to pursue art education. Pirous applied to the academies in Bandung and Yogyakarta, and went to Bandung because acceptance to the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) arrived first. As he developed his skills, Pirous did not stick to canvas only, but was also active as a teacher at his alma mater. His colleagues and ex-students think of him as a leader in the development of art, particularly of Islamic art in Indonesia. He is also considered an academic scientist in visual art. For almost 40 years (1964-2002), Pirous was a lecturer at visual art and design of the ITB. He was the founder of graphic design study program which has recently become the visual communication design study program.
It is said that behind every successful man there is a woman. This rings very true for Pirous, whose wife is Erna Ganarsih, a graduate of the ITB and a painter in her own right.

"We are really proud of our guys who earned all-district. They deserved it, especially with the season not ending the way we had hoped," said Bobcat head coach Adam Arroyo.
The 'Cats placed two players on the first team offense and defense along with two of the special teams members. On offense, running back Alex Gonzales was a unanimous first team pick by the coaches. He was joined by lineman Matt Hernandez.
Defensively, the Bobcats had outside linebacker Zach Petrus and defensive back Chris Patrova on the elite first team.
Patrova was also selected as a first team special teams return man along with Gavin Vandever as a specialist.
The offense put two players on the all-district second team, with Robert Brown earning a spot at tight end and Taylor Long making it as one of the big guys up front on the line.
Honorable mention status on offense went to QB Rudy Hernandez, running back Jordan Carter, wide receiver Zach Hall and center Jonathan Murphey.
Three Bobcats were chosen for the second team on defense. Mark Salinas was named to the defensive line second team all-district. Joe Casarez was also honored as an outside linebacker. Zach Hall got the second team selection for his work in the Bobcat secondary this year.
The defensive honorable mention list included Chance Schirmer as a lineman, defensive end John Arrisola, inside linebacker Kevin Shumake and Alejandro Perez for the secondary.
"We are proud of our seniors on the all-district list; they understood we were young but helped our young kids along tremendously. The future is definitely bright at S-T and the boys are working hard right now," Arroyo said.
"We have eight starters on offense and nine starters on defense back, so that is extra incentive for our guys working hard now."
The Academic 30-2A All-District list also contains several Bobcats. The student/athletes must maintain at least a 90 average in their classroom work in addition to maintaining their good standing on the football teams.
Those attaining and maintaining those lofty standards for the Bobcats include John Arrisola, Robert Brown, Connor McCarn, Chris Patrova, Zach Petrus, Sal Soto and Jared Wilkinson.

FAIRFIELD, Ohio — Jungle Jim's International Market here prides itself on its eclectic mix of products and unconventional merchandising displays. So it's probably no surprise that the single-store operator is bucking lackluster industry sales trends for sugar-free candy. "Sales have steadily climbed over the past few years," said Marion Stricker, candy buyer for Jungle Jim's. "One reason is that I seek out many different sugar-free seasonal items, especially for the Easter and Christmas ...

It's the first residential component in Kamehameha School's master plan to revitalize its portion of Kaka'ako.
Sales for the high-rise called "The Collection" doesn't begin until 9 a.m. Saturday, but the excitement for this latest development has already begun.
At 9 a.m. Friday, there was already a line outside of the sales office. Realtor Lee Wang was the first in line at 3:30 a.m.
The Collection has 397 units up for sale in the 43-story high-rise to be built on the former CompUSA site.
Developer Alexander & Baldwin is banking on the building's prime location as an attractive feature for buyers. It is walking distance to Downtown Honolulu and the water. Prices start in the high $300,000 range.
"Our target market for the project was local residents," said Rick Stack, Sr. Vice President of Development for A&B Properties. "So, we tried to price it reasonably and we think the response that we got today shows it's an attractive opportunity."
The Collection raised controversy earlier with residents in the area fearing the development will only worsen sewer problems that already exist. The city has started work reinforcing the lines where the high-rise will be built and the developers don't expect their project to have a significant impact.
"I think the main thing to emphasize there is this project won't be done for almost three years so there's time to address some of those issues," said Stack.
Other residential projects in the area have sold out on the first day of sales. It's some evidence of the demand for housing in the area and the reason why Eddie and Val Murakami began their wait in line for their son at 5 a.m.
"Well, we love our son and what we're going to do is try to do whatever he thinks is best for him," said Val Murakami, who was fifth in line.
Depending on sales, construction on The Collection is expected to begin in the summer or fall of next year. Sales for mid-rise and the townhouse phase of the project will be held later this year.

New research from the Journal of American Study is showing two different sides of obesity in America.
The study is showing a drop in obesity rates among young children. In the past decade, obesity rates in 2 to 5 year olds decreased from 14% in 2003 to 8% in 2012.
On the other hand, obesity rates haven't changed much for adults. One in three people over the age of 20 are still obese. Also, the study found there has been a 20% increase in obesity for women 60 and older.
Even though the study does have some positive news, La Crosse County Health officials say there is always room for improvement. "We are trying to make the healthy choice the easy choice. That's for our young children making La Crosse a healthy environment for them to grow up in and making that healthy choice the easy choice, but also for us adults that are so busy and we're struggling obviously with those obesity rates too," said La Crosse Co. Health Dept. Dietitian Jennifer Miller.
Experts don't know exactly what causes the changes in rates, but do say improvements were seen in low-income preschoolers who received meals from federal nutrition programs.

It's been one of those weeks where the hours seem to fly by, and all of the sudden its 7:30pm and you still, technically, have about 5 hours of work left to do. Not to mention errands to run, people to see, and when the heck are you supposed to eat or sleep?
While there are many great things about being in a booming industry and busy city, it can absolutely leave you looking at the clock and wondering where the time has passed.
When it all seems to slip through your fingers, there are a couple things you can try to do to save your sanity:
Block off your calendar for literally EVERYTHING – A good friend of mine taught me this trick. He puts time as blocked on the calendar when he needs to make a phone call, needs to go heads-down on an assignment, or even if he wants to take 20 minutes to walk around the block and go to lunch. If you need to dedicate time to something, make sure no one can take that away from you
Put in your time at specific times of day, then log off – When you're out of the office – in the morning, home from work, or on weekends – check at almost the same time each day, allow yourself 10 – 20 minutes to be online and catch up, then get off. Setting a specific time keeps you offline and able to do other things, but also makes sure you don't keep checking back every half hour for updates (unless it's urgent). Similarly…
When you're home, you're home – I never leave the office until I'm SURE I'm happy with the work I did that day. Even if that means staying late an extra hour or two, I'd rather get it done so I can do my "real life items" – chores, working out, sleeping – when I get to my apartment. I do not like bringing the office home and I try to avoid it at all costs
And duh, multitask – This is a no brainer, but you've got to get a bit creative here. If you need to have a meeting but also need to type up an email for a client, have the meeting at your desk. If you need to run errands for an upcoming photo shoot but also want to talk to your boss about an upcoming assignment, ask if she can walk with you

A Florida judge on Tuesday denied junior featherweight titleholder Guillermo Rigondeaux's request for an emergency stay that would allow him to fight in September.
The decision comes a week after the same judge upheld manager Gary Hyde's contract with Rigondeaux and issued an injunction preventing the fighter from making his next defense.
Rigondeaux was scheduled to make his second title defense against Robert Marroquin on Sept. 15 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas on the HBO PPV undercard of the Sergio Martinez-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. middleweight championship fight.
Miami-Dade County Circuit Court Judge David C. Miller, who issued the injunction against Rigondeaux last Tuesday, issued the denial to Rigondeaux's motion without comment.
"The ruling is not a surprise," Pat English, Hyde's attorney, told ESPN.com. "The merits clearly favored Mr. Hyde. We are just sorry that resorting to the courts has been necessary to uphold Mr. Hyde's rights."
Hyde sought the injunction and also to have his managerial contract upheld because promoter Top Rank made Rigondeaux's fight with Marroquin without his involvement or approval, English said.
In a previous lawsuit, Hyde had his managerial contract with Rigondeaux (10-0, 8 KOs), a two-time Cuban Olympic gold medalist who defected and eventually won a world title in January, upheld in April 2010.
"The legal process is ongoing to how this plays out and should it not meet a logistical timeline then we'll have to move on with another Marroquin fight," Top Rank's Carl Moretti told ESPN.com. "We have a suitable replacement should Rigondeaux be unable to fight Marroquin because of the legal issues."
Moretti said that Top Rank is making alternative plans for Marroquin (22-1, 15 KOs), of Dallas, to instead face Oscar Gonzalez (19-1, 13 KOs) of Mexico, although it hopes to work out the fight with Rigondeaux.
Gonzalez has won three fights so far this year, all by knockout, in Mexico.
Moretti said Marroquin's bout would remain part of the pay-per-view telecast.
Also on the pay-per-view, former junior lightweight titlist Roman "Rocky" Martinez (25-1-1, 16 KOs) of Puerto Rico faces Miguel Beltran Jr. (27-1, 17 KOs) of Mexico for a vacant 130-pound world title in the co-feature along with former middleweight title challenger Matthew Macklin (28-4, 19 KOs) of England against former junior middleweight titlist Joachim Alcine (33-2-1, 19 KOs) of Quebec in a scheduled 10-rounder and Chicago light heavyweight prospect and Notre Dame graduate Mike Lee (10-0, 6 KOs) against Paul Harness (4-3-1, 3 KOs) of Saint Joseph, Mo., in a scheduled six-round fight.

Speaking ahead of Sunday's highly anticipated clash with Manchester City, Brendan Rodgers insists there is more to Liverpool's silverware hopes than just this weekend's outing.
The Reds' helmsman kept a cool demeanour in preparation for the fixture, which has been billed as a Premier League title decider. He was quoted by the Liverpool Echo's James Pearce as saying the following in Friday's pre-match press conference:
Rodgers: "It's a significant game. 2 teams who have done extremely well this season but still a lot of work to do after it."— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) April 11, 2014
Rodgers: "Vitally important we stay calm. We showed that at West Ham last weekend. People talk about pressure but for us it's excitement."— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) April 11, 2014
Rodgers appears eager to divert attention away from this Sunday's collision against a Manchester City side that has lost just one of its last 20 Premier League fixtures.
Who will win at Anfield on Sunday?
However, there's no denying the importance of three points if either team is to assume a position of power in the race. As things stand, Liverpool lead the way in first place, four points ahead of the Citizens but having played two games more.
The winners at Anfield will have sole control over the destination of the Premier League title.
This weekend's fixture also has special significance for the Merseysiders in that it falls on the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster.
Ian Herbert of The Independent quotes Rodgers, who says the tragedy is something of a fuel for his squad:
Rodgers on Hillsborough 'We carry it every day of our lives here. The 96 are with us every day. Its one of the reasons we try to work well'— ian herbert (@ianherbs) April 11, 2014
Even though this reaching for the stars is new to many of those at Anfield, Rodgers spoke of days gone by and the nostalgia of an "old Anfield" feeling at the ground, per The Guardian's Daniel Taylor:
Rodgers: "The beauty for us is this game is at Anfield. It's a special place. We will unleash our supporters." #LFC #MCFC— Daniel Taylor (@DTguardian) April 11, 2014
Rodgers: 'I sense a real nostalgia about the place at the moment. There's a feel of the old Liverpool. It helps to drive us forward" #lfc— ian herbert (@ianherbs) April 11, 2014
After four consecutive seasons of finishing outside the top four, Liverpool's 2013-14 campaign has been a booming success and will have come as a surprise to many.
Prior to the beginning of the season, Manchester City and Chelsea were the two main names being thrown up as potential title contenders, but the Reds have crashed the party in dramatic fashion, showing once again what entertainment value the Premier League's wide-open expanse can hold.
However, the one constant through thick and thin has been Anfield and its support, which Rodgers notes will be of major significance on Sunday:
Rodgers: "We will unleash the supporters this weekend. Anfield is a difficult place for teams to come and play."— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) April 11, 2014
Of course, the Northern Irishman is correct in his assessment that the season doesn't end here. If Liverpool's resurgent rise has taught us anything, it's to never count one's chickens too early.
As much excitement as this season has created, one eye remains cast toward the future, with Liverpool hoping to enter a new golden era under their current manager, per Taylor:
Rodgers: "For us, it's not about this one game, this one season, it's hopefully going to be like this for a number of years." #LFC— Daniel Taylor (@DTguardian) April 11, 2014
One big boost for this weekend's hosts is hearing that centre-back Daniel Agger will be fit to play, although it's uncertain whether he'll feature as part of the starting XI, per Pearce:
Daniel Agger back in the squad for #LFC. Enrique the only one missing for City showdown— James Pearce (@JamesPearceEcho) April 11, 2014
However, a supreme advantage will be handed to whichever side might be able to collect maximum points at Anfield, with two of the Premier League's strongest outfits set to collide.

A hula hoop is nothing but a toy hoop that can be twirled around the waist. It was originally invented in the year 1958 by Arthur K. Melin and Richard Knerr. Although, it is known long before, it was formally known as the hula hoop, Egyptian children would play with hoops made out of dried grapevines. The term hula hoop was originally propounded by British sailors who had witnessed the hula dance in the islands of Hawaii and thought there was a striking resemblance in terms of movement. Ever since, the hula hoop gained popularity amongst the general public, it has been used in all sorts of entertainment and performance platforms such as the circus.
In present times, almost every individual is familiar with hula hoops and might have had a go at it at least once in their life. There are a wide range of hula hoops available in the market today which comes in different sizes and designs. One of the premium hula hoops available today in the market is the LED hula hoop by ITL Retailer.
The High Tech Hula Hooop
ITL's hula hoop has a diameter of 36 inches and has 24 alternating color changing LED's. It comes with a rechargeable battery and a recharging unit. It may serve as a wonderful gift for children, as it is not like the regular toys available in the market. Therefore, it is sure to leave an impression on every child's heart.
Some frequently asked questions related to the ITL 24 color changing LED hula hoop is what are the features which make this product different from other hula hoops available in the market? The answer to that is, when there are health benefits related to having a good time, then one can see no way in which they are heading the wrong direction. It can be used in workout sessions as well as dancing. Therefore, there is nothing disadvantageous in using this product for fitness purposes since; there are no side effects involved.
When people face discomfort due to their unhealthy lifestyles and experience pain in different parts of the body, which tend to occur in the joints mostly, they generally need to procure medicines or pay a visit to a good doctor that can help. This also requires an investment in terms of time and energy. However, if one purchases the ITL LED hula hoop, it is not only a cost effective alternative, but also a fun experience at the same time. This product is beneficial in terms of losing excess fat and achieving fitness goals. Therefore, this product not only helps in curing pain related issues, but also helps in achieving a toned physique.
Research studies say that a mere 10 minute hula hoop workout can help burn close to 200 calorie. It's lightweight and attractive design with a colorful display of lights can prove to a memorable gift for a child, but on the contrary, can also be utilized in order to achieve health benefits.

Better news from the frontAugust 15,2014
For a while, it appeared certain the United States would have no choice but to intervene militarily in Iraq on a scale President Barack Obama and the American people clearly would prefer to avoid.
Then it was learned that thousands of Yazidis, members of a minority religious sect fleeing brutal persecution by the Islamist extremists rampaging through Iraq, had been safely removed from their haven on Mount Sinjar.
American air attacks, combined with advances by Kurdish ground troops, repelled the extremists, allowing the Yazidis to escape.
That made the rescue effort much less likely, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel observed.
That should please those who had hoped our nations involvement in Iraq had ended, but Iraq remains vulnerable and may yet require our nations involvement on a larger scale.
Politically, Iraq remains a rudderless ship in danger of disintegration, a situation that would adversely affect the entire region. This isnt how it was supposed to be after the United States and our allies pulled out, believing the Iraqi people were prepared to govern themselves.
So there may be a good argument for greater involvement by America and its allies. France, Britain and Germany have already decided to participate in the fight against the extremists (although not, so far, with troops).
France, which had opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq, said this week it was sending weapons to the Kurdish fighters who are the main force opposing the Islamists.
Iraqs own troops, trained and equipped by the United States, have too often fled in the face of the enemys advances, abandoning their vehicles and their weapons to the Islamists.
Obamas final decision may very well be influenced by the behavior of these extremists who are tearing Iraq apart and treating their foes with relentless cruelty.
Despite Hagels assessment of the situation, the United Nations on Wednesday said it still regarded Iraq in general to be suffering the highest level of humanitarian crisis. The aggressors show no signs of mercy or moderation.
Lets face it: These people must be stopped. Even Saudi Arabia, a Sunni stronghold, has decided to contribute millions of dollars to the United Nations to help the fight against terrorism even though the extremists wreaking havoc in Iraq are themselves Sunnis.
Those who stand in their way and dont share their extremist religious beliefs are being executed. Women are reportedly being kidnapped and sold as slaves.
Ideally, the government in Baghdad should be prepared to defend Iraq on its own, but the political situation there has been so unstable that no effective response can be expected at this time.
Thursday, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki reluctantly agreed to step aside now that Iraqs presidenthas named his replacement, Haider al-Abadi. By giving up the office he won in Aprils elections, al-Maliki will please Washington and his many other critics who accused him of looking after his own political allies and therefore failing to unite the country.
Meanwhile, David Ignatius, a columnist for The Washington Post and a longtime observer of the situation in the Middle East, suggested that Obama consider sending retired Gen. David Petraeus and former Ambassador Ryan Crocker to Baghdad as his special envoys.
That, Ignatius wrote, would send a signal that the president is serious about helping the new Iraqi government. And theres abundant evidence that such help is badly needed in Baghdad.
Had the al-Maliki government been more interested in serving all of the countrys people and less determined to favor its own partisan supporters, the present crisis might have been avoided altogether.MORE IN EditorialsPhil Scott will take office next month after winning with a margin of 51.11 percent to 43.

Tom painted, put up the crown molding, chair rail, and panel molding. I think the window needs drapes, but I want them to match the front room, and I'd like those to go from the ceiling to the floor - all 15 feet. So . . . it will have to wait.

Grateful Sunday
- the first time of the season that I was able to bare my legs, no matter how white they were! My baby didn't wear tights and I got many many comments about her chubby thighs - I love them!
- Cornflake Crumbs - they bake just like bread crumbs, yet they don't have any wheat in them. Today I made "Magic Bars" - I think the rest of the world calls them 7 layer bars.
- White hangers - I finally got all the mismatched hangers out of my closet and all my clothes are sitting on white hangers - I LOVE IT!
Crazy, I know. Sorry, Hev, it's another list. I'm just not as good of a story teller as you are and my life is not very funny. G finally got into his soccer game yesterday - after three weeks, and bribing him with fruit snacks every time he kicked the ball he decided it was pretty fun. He would kick the ball into the goal and then run over to me to get his snack. He went through 2 bags, but at least he played. Tom took G to his office with him yesterday, so it was just the girls and me and we went to Costco and Old Navy - both crazy places on Saturdays but needed to get done. Tom and I watched Martian Child last night and were entertained - at least we both stayed awake through the whole thing. I like the Cusacks and that they do movies together. Maybe someday my siblings and I can be in a movie. Oh, that would make my parents so proud!

Why is Coming Up With a Title the Hardest Part?
- My morning protein shake (with baby's allergies, there's not much I can eat, so I get excited when there's something yummy)
- A new Heroes DVD to watch while I'm on the treadmill
- Crafting with I. - we're making felt food
- Watching G - you never know what he's going to come up with
- A quick trip to the library
- Lots of hugs and slobbery kisses from my baby
- Hopefully, a call to my sister
The other day, I was a little disappointed in myself when I realized that my favorite part of the day was putting the kids to bed, snuggling under a blanket and watching American Idol (I think my favorite is David Cook!!). How sad for my kids that their mom likes them best when they are sleeping. I have no concluding sentence for this - I wish I was better at writing.

Grateful Sunday (written on Monday)
This was an oh-so-challenging day, but there are still things to be thankful for:
- A house big enough to put my baby FAR away from me so I don't hear her in the middle of the night.
- A handy husband who is putting up crown molding in my boy's room that looks awesome (the room - and my husband).
- Primary teachers who tell me what good kids I have.
- It's spring break - so tomorrow we are taking the day off!
Now - I'm off to stalk other's blogs!

Soft Condensed Matter, Biological Physics Experiment & Statistical Physics Seminars
Monday 1 Oct 07 - 1:00pm
The hydrodynamics of active fluids
Davide Marenduzzo
Active fluids are a novel example of soft matter. We will introduce a continuum theory which attempts to describe the basic physical and flow properties of these systems. The practical examples of active fluids I will make contact with are solutions of actin and myosin, a molecular motor, and concentrated suspensions of bacterial swimmers or propellers. We have recently studied, via lattice Boltzmann simulations, the hydrodynamics and the rheology of an active fluid. I will report some results on these studies. Mainly I will discuss the fact that spontaneous flow can occur in this system, comparing the pattern with experimental ones, and discuss the rheology of active fluids, which display massively non-Newtonian features. Finally, I will discuss the comparison of our continuum theory simulations with simulations of the rheology of fully resolved self propelled particles.

The Columbus Dispatch - December 23, 2011 02:27 PM
Johnson & Johnson, the consumer-products company that has been plagued by product recalls in the past two years, said it is voluntarily asking retailers to remove about 12 million bottles of Motrin pain relievers from store shelves.
Although there is no safety concern if taken as prescribed, the coated caplets might not dissolve as quickly as intended when they near their expiration dates, according to a statement posted Wednesday on a website of J&J's McNeil Consumer Healthcare Division.
J&J spokeswoman Bonnie Jacobs said the company is not asking consumers to return the caplets. The bottles were distributed in the United States and some Caribbean islands.
Three McNeil manufacturing plants have been under stepped-up U.S. government supervision since March after a rash of recalls.

Republicans Rediscover the Constitution—Are They Sure About That?
by Doug McQuiston
he results of last November's midterm elections were epic. Nancy Pelosi and her Gulfstream V are out. House Speaker John Boehner and his commercial coach flights back to Ohio are in. Plus ça change…
Last November, our runaway government ran smack into the same wall it has seen before: the voters and their fear of a government big enough to take everything they have. Most of the new GOP Congress members rode to power on the strength of a conservative, Tea Party friendly message of less government, lower spending, and a return to "constitutional first principles." Many actually seem like true believers, but time will tell.
At least they're starting to ask the right question, one that has fallen out of favor over the last 60 years or so: "Exactly where in the Constitution did we, the People, grant the federal government the power to do that?!" New House rules will require all proposed legislation to contain a detailed citation to its precise constitutional authority.
But this new respect for the Constitution, like everything else in politics, has two sides. The overreaching and excessive government spending and growth that spawned the Tea Party cannot be laid solely at the foot of the Democratic Party. Indeed, most of the biggest power-grabs (and the freest spending), in the previous two administrations were Republican in origin. The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA); No Child Left Behind (NCLB); the Orwellian Department of Homeland Security (DHS), whose name even now gives me the creeps; Medicare prescription drug coverage; federally guaranteed, ridiculously easy mortgage money shoveled into the economy by federally backed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; cozy, rent-seeking deals with Wall Street investment bankers and Texas oilmen; government subsidies in farming, manufacturing, and natural resources; and the TARP bank bailout were all GOP-sponsored bad ideas. I heard no mention then about the limits of constitutional power before any of these ideas became law.
In the "Through the Looking Glass" world that was the last two decades, it was Democrat Bill Clinton who said "the era of Big Government is over" and Republican George W. Bush who set records for government spending and created the largest, least efficient, and most alarmingly freedom-threatening agency ever to exist in America: DHS.
Of course, the Democrats aren't blameless for that behemoth, either, since DHS was their idea, proposed as a way to look like they were "doing something" after the 9/11 attacks. The truth is that both sides of the aisle in Congress have seemed to have lost their copies of the Constitution over the last two decades.
That's why I am particularly happy to see that the GOP finally dusted off its copies of the Constitution, and gave it a quick read during the campaign. Maybe we will see legislation this term repealing DOMA, abolishing DHS, retiring NCLB, and reversing the other power-grabs of the last Republican presidency.
Or, maybe not.
You see, like everything else in politics, what started out as a slogan to attract Tea Party voters—with their "Don't Tread on Me" Gadsden flags and "We Want our Constitution Back" signs—must now make the hard turn into a governing philosophy. Those Tea Party-backed candidates could always count on rousing applause when they told their crowds that the Constitution does not grant Congress the power to make us buy health insurance; but what would we hear if they told their next town hall audience about some of the other "core principles" of limited federal government held by our Founders? Perhaps our incoming Congress members should dust off another piece of writing, The Federalist Papers.
They should be careful, though. Let's imagine what that might look like. Here's our earnest young freshman GOP Congressman, striding to the front of the room at the next town hall meeting, his copy of the Federalist Papers under his right arm: "The people, through their Constitution, did not delegate to the federal government the power to ban handguns or mandate the purchase of health insurance!" He pauses, to bask in the applause. "But I just read the Federalist Papers—I now know that it also granted no power to Congress to mandate prayers in state public schools!" We hear the sound of crickets chirping, and nervous shifting in seats.
Undaunted, he continues: "The Constitution does not give the federal government the power to use taxpayer money to favor one business or industry over another, or pick winners and losers in the private sector! Nor does it empower us to enact a federal ban on marriage between persons of the same gender, control the states' exercise of police power in regulation of abortion practices, or pay farmers not to grow corn!" Duck, Congressman, they're throwing things at you!
As the Tea Party gears up for the 2012 presidential race and their GOP Congress members begin crafting the legislation they will offer in this new Congressional term, they should all be careful what they wish for. The Constitution, they have rediscovered, was indeed a limited delegation of very circumscribed power from the states and the people at large to the federal government. Our Founders distrusted the national government, and wanted to keep it small enough to be controlled.
That limit applies to both sides of the political spectrum. If the GOP pushes for full repeal of the Obama health care reform legislation on constitutional grounds, then it must be equally mindful that the old red-meat issues they trot out every election cycle, such as prayer in schools, gay marriage bans, federal prohibition of certain abortion practices, and federal grain or farm subsidies, also are beyond the reach of the limited powers granted to the federal government.
So, what will it be? Will I hear GOP presidential candidates in local forums telling their audiences that the federal government has no power to meddle in state definitions of marriage, or state laws governing abortion practices? Will I see GOP candidates who favor a robust interpretation of the Second Amendment also advocate dismantling the Department of Homeland Security on the grounds that it threatens the very freedoms and sovereignty the Constitution reserves to the people?
I'm not holding my breath. D

With the dramatic rise of online fraud cases over the past several years, ecommerce sites and law enforcement agencies are finding themselves playing "catch-up" in an effort to stop the increasingly clever scams of Internet con men. Frustrated by the apparently widening gap between good guys and bad guys, many victims are banding together to share information to help bring Cybercriminals to justice.
Some term these groups "Vigilantes." But, somewhere between "vigilante" and online fraud "victim" is a phenomenon that perhaps needs its own term: Cybervigilism. Being vigilant is to be watchful. When it comes on online fraud, here's one more case that proves that Cybervigilism is alive and well.
The "Shaes"
Mark and Nancy Shae offered Web-site design services and belonged to an online community of Adult Webmasters in 2002. After participating in discussion forums for 5 months, Nancy revealed in October that her husband was sick with cancer.
When Nancy Shae later wrote to fellow Webmasters in an online forum that her husband had died from the disease, members of the community reached out a helping hand. Some members donated services, while others sent Nancy money. Little did they know that the woman they thought was Nancy Shae was really Nancy Dreksler, half of a husband-and-wife team wanted for fraud by officials in Nevada and Arizona, according to authorities.
But while many members pitched in to help their colleague, one member was skeptical.
Initially, "Blaze" (his online handle) received angry responses when he questioned the truth of Nancy's claims. However, a little research uncovered some glaring inconsistencies in Nancy's story. Determined to know the truth, Blaze hired a private investigator to visit the Shaes' home in Mesa, Arizona.
"It was too late. We had apparently missed them by hours," Blaze said. "But we kept our eyes out for them and saw their next scam on eBay. We knew it was just a matter of time before they tried to take the Webmaster community again."
The "Myers"
While Blaze was correct in thinking the Shaes were serial offenders, he was unaware of another online community scammed by the couple 10 months earlier. Authorities believe that the Drekslers defrauded members of a site set up for marine and reef aquarium hobbyists in January 2002. They believe the Drekslers used the alias Johanna Myers to sell aquarium equipment on eBay and to ReefCentral.com members. The User ID they used on eBay had been registered in October 2001, and negative feedback began rolling in on the account on January 12, 2002. eBay ultimately suspended the account, but the Drekslers popped up again on eBay.
The "Boselis"
In February 2003, members of an online-auction chat board noticed suspicious activity on an eBay account "mylittle1s." The User ID belonged to "Renee Boseli," an alias for Michael and Nancy Dreksler. One victim alerted Arizona law enforcement officials in March, and Detective Bruce Cornish of the Coconino County Sheriff's Dept. contacted eBay. On March 5, eBay suspended mylittle1s, but it was too late: Det. Cornish found the Drekslers' residence abandoned, with a post office box full of cashier's checks and money orders made out to Renee Boseli.
AuctionBytes' coverage of the mylittle1s case caught the attention of Rachel Konrad, a reporter with the Associated Press. Blaze and his colleagues read Konrad's AP article on CNN.com on March 26, and saw similarities between the Drekslers and Mark and Nancy Shae. They were a husband and wife team, the wife was named Nancy, and the eBay ID mylittle1s was a variation of a password used on the Webmaster community bulletin boards. But the CNN article reported the Drekslers had fled their Munds Park, Arizona residence.
The Break
The break Blaze was looking for came soon after he read the CNN article. His colleague "Smith" (an online handle) wrote to him about a site called AdultCanvas.com. The design of the site looked like the work of "Mark Shae." But having seen the Drekslers scared off once before, Blaze and Smith, along with Webmaster "Gleem," were determined to do their own detective work to find the couple's address without tipping them off.
The three did as much research as they could, learning that the AdultCanvas.com site was owned by "Mitch Casperella." They felt that information still might not be enough for investigators. So before they contacted officials, they went to work.
"We decided that we would arrange a deal to do design work in exchange for money or something else that would require to be couriered, require a signature, require a telephone number and require an address where someone could sign for a package," Smith said.
"I created a new online identity complete with an email address and AOL instant messenger user name and proceeded to contact him," said Smith. "I ended up making a deal for graphic design work in the amount of $250 in exchange for an Xbox and 4 games. Once we had an address, we checked it against public records and the name connected to the lease was "Nancy Casperella." This was the clincher, we knew without a doubt that that "Mitch" was the same person that had operated the previous scams."
The three men now had the address of "Mitch and Nancy Casperella." Certain that this was the same couple that had ripped off their own community and eBay members, Blaze called Detective Cornish in Arizona the next day, May 6.
Cornish secured a warrant and got in a car with a fellow detective and drove from Arizona to Westminster, Colorado, arriving on May 8. The sheriff discovered the dead body of Michael Dreksler, age 32, in the garage of the residence, an apparent suicide victim. The following weekend, Nancy turned herself into authorities in Wisconsin.
Three men acted together to track down the Drekslers using their knowledge of technology and the Internet. When asked if he thought he and his colleagues were "vigilantes," Smith said he did not think so.
"I believe that with the information that is available on the Internet and the ability to connect to each other instantly is just naturally going to lead to people working together to find people that wronged them. However I wouldn't necessarily go as far as calling it vigilantism. There is a distinct difference between someone that tracks down another person and presents the information to the law enforcement, compared to someone who tracks down another person and proceeds to "enforce" law on them."
Ironically, members of the same community that had initially reached out to help the Shaes ultimately helped law enforcement officials to track the couple down.

Christina's been working on this lately in between working so much. She typically rides in the morning before work and occasionally gets out to the other skate parks with some other BMXers from time to time. Hopefully while the boys are away being robots, we can get out and get some footage and stills.
