Travel Guide Asia China Tibetan Autonomous Region
© All Rights Reserved Lavafalls
Whenever the Chinese government refers to Tibet, it refers to the Tibetan Autonomous Region, a province in the west of China. The extent to which it is autonomous is a matter of great debate, as many human rights organisations argue that the Chinese government has actively oppressed the local Tibetan population.[1]
The Tibetan Autonomous Region's borders roughly match the borders of the semi sovereign Tibet of pre 1951. Tibet was first conquered by an outside power, the Mongolians, during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368 CE). But with the rise of the Ming Dynasty there was a brief period of sovereignty until the Mongols took over again in the mid 15th century by supporting the Dali Lama who had fled to Mongolia. Mongolian clans had on and off political control of Tibet until the Tibetans appealed to the new Qing Dynasty to remove the Mongolians in the late 17th century. At that point Tibet in the official view of international politics became a tribute state to the Qing Dynasty. Although the presence of the Qing Dynasty was not felt by the average Tibetan, the Qing government did have bureaucrats and troops stationed in Lhasa, the capital of the Tibetan Autonomous Region. With the decline of the Qing Dynasty, in the mid 19th century, the mountain kingdom of Tibet gained more and more autonomy and by the 1890s Tibet was independent in every aspect accept in name. Any dream of an independent Tibet at that time was ended in 1912 when the new Republic of China paid all the debts of the Qing Dynasty in order to maintain the internationally recognized borders of the Qing Dynasty. Dealing with internal and external threats the Republic Government did not have the resources to influence any control over the internal running of the Tibetan Autonomous Region but the Republic government used international pressure to make sure other countries did not recognize the Tibetan Autonomous Region as an independent country.
When the Communists defeated the Republic in 1949 they quickly turned their peasant army towards the "liberation" of the Tibetan Autonomous Region. By 1951 the TAR was incorporated into China, with limited resistance, by the signing of the 17 point agreement. If the 17 point agreement had been honored the Tibetan Autonomous Region would roughly have a similar government relationship with Beijing that Hong Kong has today. But due to conservative Tibetans and Communists the tensions escalated until the 1959 uprising during which the Dali Lama fled the Tibetan Autonomous Region to India. In 1965 the 17 point agreement was nullified and the Tibetan Autonomous Region was established. Since that time the degree that the Tibetan Autonomous Region is actually autonomous has changed with who ever is currently in charge in Beijing. Many senior government officials have had their careers start by having a leadership position in the Tibetan Autonomous Region including the current president of China Hu Jintao.
The Tibetan Autonomous Region is considered a high altitude plateau with high altitude lakes with stunning peaks. Most of the province is used for yak grazing because it is one of the few domesticated animals that can live up there. Tibet shares international borders with India, Nepal, Bhutan and Myanmar. Tibet has some of the world's tallest mountains, with several of them making the top ten list. Mount Everest, at 8,848 metres, is the highest mountain on earth, located on the border with Nepal. Several major rivers have their source in the Tibetan Plateau (mostly in present-day Qinghai Province). These include Yangtze, Yellow River, Indus River, Mekong, Ganges, Salween and the Yarlung Tsangpo River (Brahmaputra River). The Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, along the Yarlung Tsangpo River, is among the deepest and longest canyons in the world. The Indus and Brahmaputra rivers originate from a lake (Tso Mapham) in Western Tibet, near Mount Kailash. The mountain is a holy pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Tibetans. The Hindus consider the mountain to be the abode of Lord Shiva. The Tibetan name for Mt. Kailash is Khang Rinpoche. Tibet has numerous high-altitude lakes referred to in Tibetan as tso or co. These include Qinghai Lake, Lake Manasarovar, Namtso, Pangong Tso, Yamdrok Lake, Siling Co, Lhamo La-tso, Lumajangdong Co, Lake Puma Yumco, Lake Paiku, Lake Rakshastal, Dagze Co and Dong Co. The Qinghai Lake (Koko Nor) is the largest lake in the People's Republic of China.
The Tibetan Autonomous Region has seven administrative divisions known as Perfectures.

The highest mountain of all, the Mount Everest or Chomolungma in the local language, is on every climber's list to do. But this mountain is not without risks and many people die when climbing or descending (!) the mountain. About 2,,500 people have reached the top and over 200 deaths have been recorded. The mountain is part of the highest mountain range in the world, the Himalayas.
It is internationally recognized that the mountain was first climbed and successfully descended by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953, although controversy still exists about the question whether George Mallory and/or Andrew Irvine had climbed the mountain 29 years earlier! Unfortunately, neither of them survived their early expedition. More recently, questions about the commercialization have come up as more and more climbers make the climb. Even a double-amputee (Mark Inglis) and a helicopter have made it to the top during the last year, although both did so with risk.
Mount Kailash is one of the holiest mountains in the world! Since it is a holy mountain for Buddhist, Hindu, Jainist and Bon traditions, thousands of pilgrims make the journey every year to this remote mountain on the edge of the world. The Hindus consider Mount Kailash to be the home of Lord Shiva, a principle Hindu deity. These pilgrims come to do a kora, spiritual walk, around the mountain. It is believe that one kora around the mountain will wash away a lifetime of sins. It can take several days to complete the kora around Mount Kailash, and some pilgrims complete it multiple times.
The other amazing fact about this mountain is the number of rivers that start from it. The Indus, Sutlej and Brahmaputra rivers find their sources from the different sides of this mountain. Many of the other rivers coming from this mountain feed into the Mekong, Ganges and Yellow rivers. Getting to Mount Kailash is very difficult and expensive, as it requires arranging a tour from Lhasa with a Land Rover. The standard tour, including transportation time and a kora around the mountain, takes 10 days. Some tours include visiting ancient cities beyond Mount Kailash, but this adds about 5 more days.

The Potala Palace used to be the winter palace of the Dalai Lamas, that ruled Tibet, until 1959, when the 14th Dalai Lama fled to India. Construction at the sight started in 637, but the modern Palace was build by the Fifth Dalai Lama, who started its construction in 1645, after one of his spiritual advisers, Konchog Chophel, pointed out that the site was ideal as a seat of government. As it is situated between the Drepung and Sera monasteries and the old city of Lhasa. The palace rises more than 300 meters above the valley, and consists of many parts, including the White and the Red Palace, many Chapels, and the Tomb of the Thirteenth Dalai Lama. At the moment the palace serves as a museum. If you want to visit be aware that the number of visitors that can visit is limited.
China has three "Golden Week" holidays per year. People get a mandatory two or three days off work for each holiday, and workers' companies can grant them the rest of the week off, making each holiday a total of 7 days. As you can imagine, having almost 1.4 billion people with the same days off can make travelling at these times arduous to say the least.
Travelling during the Spring Festival/Chinese New Year is incredibly difficult. Chinese New Year is China's Christmas, so the millions of migrant workers and students flood back to their home towns. Everybody else takes the opportunity to spend their hong bao (gifts of money traditionally given at CNY) and go travelling. Most of the time, since you are only allowed to purchase train tickets 6 days in advance and must be present in the city of origin, sometimes only standing room tickets are available. Be aware! The Spring Festival is undoubtedly the busiest time for the Chinese transportation system. Flying will avoid the crowded trains, but book early and expect to pay higher prices. All the main tourist attractions will be crawling with tourists (worse than usual), so unless you like crowds, it's best to avoid it altogether.
Chinese New Year is based on the lunar calendar, so the date changes each year. The Chinese New Year/Spring Festival holiday is 7 days long and usually starts on New Year's Eve.
The two other national holidays are October 1st, National Day, celebrating the founding of the People's Republic of China and May 1st, which is International Labor Day. Almost all Chinese get the two holidays off and many take the opportunity to travel. If you want to avoid the crowds, fly, but it should get a lot less busy towards the end of the week.
Held at the end of December according to the Tibetan calendar, the New Year is the most important time in Tibet. Different areas have different ways of celebrating, but Lhasa is the most unique. Each household makes a "qiema" (a wooden measure for grain), "kasai" (fried twisted dough sticks) and "luoguo" (butter in the shape of a sheep's head), signifying thriving animals and a good harvest in the coming year. In addition, they offer fruits, butter and tea to Buddha.
January 15 marks the end of the Tibetan New Year celebration. On this day, people head to temple to burn incense to worship. Butter lanterns are hung and lit in the shape of gods, flowers, birds, and animals.
It's believed that in the middle of April in Buddhism Sakyamuni was born, became Buddha and died the same month. In and around Lhasa, this festival worships the god through processionals and readings.
"Shoton" in Tibetan translates to "sour milk banquet" which takes place for five days in August. Operas and paintings are a highlight, along with yak racing and displays of horsemanship.
The Bathing Festival is held the first ten days of July and is called "Gamariji" in Tibetan. The name of the planet Venus, bathing is said to provide health benefits during this period.
Ongkor is the harvest festival in August. An old farming tradition, major activities include horse racing, shooting, dancing, Tibetan Opera, stone holding and wrestling.
Held in June/July when the horses are at their strongest, a great performance of agility and showmanship is held along with a craft fair.
The weather here can best be described as harsh! During winter, temperatures can drop to below -35 °C, which is not a surprise given the fact that most of the Tibetan Autonomous Region lies at a high altitude plateau above 3,000 metres. Summers are pleasantly warm, but give most precipitation. The spring and fall seasons (April/May and late September-early November) are probably the best times, given the pleasant temperatures (cold nights though!) and generally sunny and dry conditions.

Tibet shares international borders with India, Nepal, Bhutan and Myanmar. At this time tourists can only cross legally into Nepal although it might be possible in the future with India.
Lhasa Gonggar Airport (LXA) has some connections. These include Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Xi'an with China Eastern Airlines, Beijing, Kathmandu, Qamdo and Chengdu with Air China, Chongqing with China Southern Airlines and Chongqing and Chengdu with Sichuan Airlines.

Qinghai-Tibet Railway
The Qinghai-Tibet Railway is one of the newest train services in the world, officially inaugurated on the 1st of July, 2006 with the opening of the last leg from Golmud. Officially called the Qingzang Railway, it travels from Xining in Qinghai province, China, to Lhasa. There are, however, other cities in China, where you can get on the train and travel directly to the Tibetan capital, including all the way from Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and even Guangzhou. From Golmud, it's 1,142 kilometres, from Xining about 1,950 kilometres. The line includes the Tanggula Pass, which, at 5,072 metres above sea level, is the world's highest rail track. The 1,338-metre-long Fenghuoshan tunnel is the highest rail tunnel in the world at 4,905 metres above sea level. Over 80% of the Golmud-Lhasa train is at an altitude of more than 4,000 metres and there are oxygen supplies are available for each passsenger in the train, hopefully preventing altitude sickness. It is expected that new lines and branches will open, connecting Lhasa with other places like Nyinchi, Shigatse and Xigaze and even on to the border with Nepal. Some of the constructions have begun already and most of them will be completed before 2020. Rumors about extensions towards India and other Asian countries are not more than rumors!
The train from Golmud makes buses not a reasonable option anymore to reach China.
Traveling in the Tibetan Autonomous Region can be quite difficult. The roads in most areas are very basic, although improving, and weather can be extreme any time of the year. The most difficult part of moving around the Tibetan Autonomous Region is the fact that most local transport is off limits or randomly goes off limits to non Tibetan Autonomous Region residents. Making it that traveler's must hire cars with drivers or in most cases land rovers with drivers when the roads become more basic. Also many areas of the Tibetan Autonomous Region require extra permits other then just the Tibet Permit, which can sometimes take a few days to be processed. Although expensive luckily the hiring of vehicles is very easy to do in Lhasa and other travelers can usually be found on the different message boards located in hostels and cafes. Almost all of the travel agencies in Lhasa offer vehicle hire and arrangement of permits for other areas in the Tibetan Autonomous Region .
In the last few years the permits and red tape for entering the Tibetan Autonomous Region have been constantly changing. Many hoped with the opening of the railroad that for foreigners the annoying Tibet Permit would no longer be needed. Due to events of March 2008 everything dealing with permits has gone haywire. It is recommended to either contact hostels in Chengdu or Chinese travel agencies to find out the most current information.
No trip to Tibet is complete without having tried some yak meat, a standard part of any Tibettan diet. It can be eaten raw, boiled with spices or dried.

Altitude Sickness is the major health concern here, so try to limit your movements during the first couple of days and gradually ascent if you can. Also drink enough fluids (but not too much) and eat healthy and small portions at a time.

Wangba (联网) means internet bar in Chinese. Almost every town will have an internet bar or gaming center. The best way to spot an internet bar is to look for the 网(ba) character, which means net, and large digitized images of computer game characters. Often, there will be a sign saying Green Power in English at the entrance. Most gaming centers cost about RMB3 an hour. You prepay at the main desk and are then given a plastic card or a piece of paper. Once you are done you return the card or piece of paper and get reimbursed for the money you didn't spend. Be prepared for a place that might be dingy, basic and messy. Internet bars in China tend to get crowded starting in the late afternoon to the late evenings.
Some hotels provide access from the rooms that may or may not be free; others may provide a wireless service or a few desktops in the lounge area.
Also, quite a few cafes provide free wireless Internet service. Some cafes, even provide a machine for customer use.
See also: International Telephone Calls
The country calling code to China is 86. To make an international call from China, the code is 00.
When making international phone calls it is best to buy an IP card. They typically have a value of ¥100 but sometimes can be had for as little as ¥25. The cards have printed Chinese instructions, but after dialing the number listed on the card English-spoken instructions are available. As a general indication of price, a call from China to Europe lasts around 22 minutes with a ¥100 card. Calls to the U.S. and Canada are advertised to be another 20% cheaper. There is no warning before the card runs out of minutes.
If you already have a GSM 900/1800 cellphone, you can roam onto Chinese networks, but calls will be very expensive (¥12-35/minute is typical). If you're staying for more than a few days, it will usually be cheaper to buy a prepaid Chinese SIM card; this gives you a Chinese phone number with a certain amount of money preloaded. Chinese tend to avoid phone numbers with the bad-luck digit '4', and vendors will often be happy to offload these "unsellable" SIM-cards to foreigners at a discount. If you need a phone as well, prices start around ¥100/200 used/new. Chinese phones, unlike those sold in many Western countries, are never "locked" and will work with any SIM card you put in them. China's two big operators are China Mobile and China Unicom. Most SIMs sold by the two work nationwide, with Unicom allowing Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan usage as well. There is usually a surcharge of about ¥1/min when roaming outside the province you bought the SIM, and there are some cards that work only in a single province, so check when buying.
China Post (中国邮政) is the official postal service of the People's Republic of China, operated by the State Postal Bureau of the People's Republic of China (website in Chinese only), and has more details about price to send letters, postcards and parcels, both domestically as well as internationally. The Chinese postal service is very good. Remember that in more remote places usually only one post office in a city can handle sending international boxes or letters. Also many times it might be worth having the name of the country you are trying to send to in Chinese characters, because small town people might not know what Estonia is in English. Post offices have a striking green logo and can easily be found everywhere in the cities. They are mostly open every day (including weekends!) from 8:00am to 6:00pm, though small offices might have shorter opening times, while the bigger ones in central and touristic areas are sometimes open during evenings as well.

Annie: (angry because the store owner won't let her return a poor quality sweater without a receipt) I'm just trying to return a sweater.
Store Owner: You're just trying to create a disturbance.
Annie: A disturbance? You want a disturbance? I'll give you a disturbance! What ever happened to common decency? What ever happened to service and a simple thank you for shopping here? What ever happened to the store standing behind the merchandise that it sells? What ever happened to truth, justice, and the American store taking returns?
Store Owner: I'll tell you what happened. People started shoplifting and then returning things for cash, or buying things, wearing them, and returning them for no reason! Profits started coming down, and insurance rates started going up, so shop owners had to start looking for merchandise with a higher mark-up. What do you want from a twelve dollar sweater? What ever happened to "You get what you pay for"? If the manufacturer doesn't stand up for the merchandise, then why should I get stuck? I've got kids to feed too, you know! That's what happened to this American store taking returns!
Annie: Happy you may be excused, your manners are impecable.
Matt: What's next, good citizenship?
Mary: How about good grooming?
Annie: Laugh if you want, but fair warning, I'm going on a good manners binge.
Ruthie: Are we going with you?

Airplay Vs Airplay mirroring
I've been trying to get help with this for a while, the app only allows airplay mirroring to the Apple TV. This requires the screen to be on all the time on the iOS device, it also causes video stuttering and other quality issues on the Apple TV. Netflix app for example uses direct airplay, which allows you to turn your phone screen off, and there is zero stutter when playing videos. When will normal airplay be added to the app? Right now I purchased the pro version and I can't use the app for what I need it for, airplay. Thanks in advance for looking into this.

The feature you are referring to isn't in the app right now but thank you for your suggestion as we are always trying to improve the app for our users. Thanks.

The God Delusion (PDF, ePUB, Kindle)PDF: $2.00

by Richard Dawkins
Formats: PDF ePUB Kindle
A preeminent scientist -- and the world's most prominent atheist -- asserts the irrationality of belief in God and the grievous harm religion has inflicted on society, from the Crusades to 9/11. With rigor and wit, Dawkins examines God in all his forms, from the sex-obsessed tyrant of the Old Testament to the more benign (but still illogical) Celestial Watchmaker favored by some Enlightenment thinkers. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry, and abuses children, buttressing his points with historical and contemporary evidence.Learn More

In Capital in the Twenty-First Century, Thomas Piketty analyzes a unique collection of data from twenty countries, ranging as far back as the eighteenth century, to uncover key economic and social patterns.

The authors' attention to detail and clarity—the same as found in James Stewart's market-leading Calculus text—is what makes this text the proven market leader.Learn More

Humanity has had a long fascination with blood sacrifice. In fact, it has been by no means uncommon for a child to be born into this world only to be patiently and lovingly reared by religious maniacs, who believe that the best way to keep the sun on its course or to ensure a rich harvest is to lead him by tender hand into a field or to a mountaintop and bury, butcher, or burn him alive as offering to an invisible GodLearn More

The services and resources in The Iona Abbey Worship Book reflect the Iona Community's commitment to the belief that worship is all that we are and all that we do, both inside and outside the church, with no division into the sacred and the secular.
Previous incarnations of this book have been used extensively throughout Britain and abroad by lay leaders, bishops, clergy trainers, youth groups, house groups, womens groups, prisoners groups, worship groups in fact absolutely anyone exploring transforming, creative and participative worship.
For centuries pilgrims have travelled to the isle of Iona in search of the sacred, inspired by the example of St Columba, a 6th-century Irish monk who founded a monastery there, and whose influence is felt to the present day.

What's that they say about raising kids or make that life in general? Just when you get used to things one way, it all changes again? Everything is new with a growing infant and now that B is back to work, it's thrown a whole new twist into our morning routine. I HAVE to get at least a few runs in a week and that makes child care difficult. At 7AM I'm running in the door as B is running out. There's a quick handoff, 1 or 2 questions about how SP did with her food, a peck on the lips and we're off!
I've been pondering (and I think best on a run) how to make this morning routine easier or what I would do if I weren't, well – me. I would probably skip the run, tell myself I'll do it at night (won't happen), I'd probably do a drive-thru breakfast and let the babysitter handle feeding SP. Some mornings, when I'm running around the house like a crazy lady, I fantasize about coffee shop coffee and a ginger fig scone scarfed down in the car on my way to work. But then I remember why I do what I do. Why I run, why I buy whole foods, why B and I feed ourselves homemade meals. Because it's important that I act as my daughter's role model. It's important to me that I give my family healthy foods, I know that the better we eat the more energy we have to play and have fun. The more nutritious our diet the longer we'll live and be around for each other. And because I know that what and how I feed SP now will translate to healthy eating as she gets older.
I can't give up my morning runs anymore than I can give up eating healthy foods and I think B knows this, he's seen me when I can't run and it's not pretty! Running for me is not just about maintaining a healthy weight. I see that as a really nice perk to something I love to do. I run because I know I'm doing something to keep my body healthy. I know my heart is working hard and when that happens I'm reducing my risk for a whole host of diseases. I also know that I'm maintaining strong bones with every step I log. I get to run past the water and while exercise, no matter where it's done, has been shown to have mental health benefits, running past the rising sun glistening over Narragansett Bay is a tremendous way to feel better about the world in general. I know that even though I have to leave SP to run that I'm actually teaching her a valuable lesson about life and wellness and what we have to do to stay healthy.

In this re-fashion design class, you will explore experimental fashion techniques to create a series of clothing. Through examining the effects of culture, history and personal style in fashion, participants will be encouraged to consider the different definitions of dress, garments and accessories within the context of sustainability. Class projects will include experimentation and exploration of design through the deconstruction and reconstruction of clothing. We will study materials, forms, construction, color through both research and hands-on tutorials, making approximately one head to toe outfit.
*Pre-College Workshops begin Monday morning at 9am, and then 10am for each day after. Each morning, Tues-Fri, 9am-10am is designed as an optional "Open Studio" time for students to work on their projects.

5 Ways to Turn Your "I Can't" Into "I Can"
I spent my morning with Billy Joel.
He told me tales of the Piano Man, The Entertainer, The Stranger, and my favorite--Brendar and Eddie.
I found this app called Couch-to-5K, or C25K. It claims to get you off the couch and running a 5K in eight weeks. I'm on the third workout, and strangely, I don't hate it. I actually almost enjoy running. Maybe it's because I'm still easing into this running thing. I only have to run for 60 seconds, then I get to walk for 90. I do this for 8 intervals. So far, I'm digging it, especially when I get to cool down to New York State of Mind. And you need to understand something: I hated running and overall exercise.
When the overweight and undisciplined me feels like giving up or giving in, when I say, "I can't," the skinny and healthy me that is longing to be center stage says, "Yes, you can."
When overweight and undisciplined me says, "But it's soooo haaaard," Skinny and healthy me says, "No it's not really. What's hard is the choice. Stop whining and keep going." I like Skinny and healthy me, but she really is a pain.
The hardest part of tackling weight loss, exercise, overcoming addiction, or any other change that is challenging for us is not so much the act, but the action.
It comes down to our will.
We tend to look at our challenge as this huge task. We look at the big picture. We look at the end result, the end goal, and it's too big. Looking at it that way is overwhelming so we quit before we even begin. "I can't."
Instead, we might do well to listen to the folks from Alcoholic Anonymous who overcome their addiction, "one day at a time." Sometimes, it is one step at a time. One cookie at a time.
It is a matter, not of difficulty, but of will.
For years, I've said that losing weight was so hard because I never had a good enough reason for getting it off. I used menopause as an excuse. "Oh, it's just so hard to get weight off once you hit menopause." True. But that only justified my excuse.
When I had to begin taking yet another medication because the numbers weren't coming down, I knew I had to make serious changes by eliminating sugar and getting the weight off. That was enough motivation for me. And oddly, once I made the healthier choice, I find now that it isn't as hard as I thought.
It's skipping that extra half hour of sleep in the morning and choosing to get up in the dark and put my sneakers on, or skipping that ice cream cone and drinking water instead that's hard. It's the choice that's hard. It's denying the flesh that's hard.
Some days, saying "no" to my wants is the most difficult task on my to-do list.
What are you struggling with today? What is your motivation to change? Is it hard to actually put a plan into practice, or is it the choice to say no to your will that's so hard?
Try these five practical tips :
Make a plan and find your motivation.
My plan was to step up my exercise and eat less. That's the only way my weight will come off. My motivation? Getting off medication. The only way to do it is to exercise more and eat less. I long to be thin and med-free again. I don't just wish for it. I want it bad enough to do something about it.
Learn to say no.
Treat your will like a 2-year old child. Deny your flesh. Stop saying "it's" too hard. Define your "it" that is too hard, and break it down into smaller, more manageable actions that you CAN overcome. Make the choice to be stronger than your "it." If you can't, ask God to be stronger for you (I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Phil 4:13). Think before you act. Decide if you really want to do that. How will it affect you? How will you feel afterwards? Will the guilt over having given in lead to doing that thing again? Break the cycle. Stop whining and do something about it. Make a healthy choice.
Focus on right now and not the end result.
I can't eliminate sugar-it's too hard. But right now, I can go without that cookie. I can't walk five miles, but right now, I can walk one mile. I can't run a 5K, but right now, I can run for 60 seconds. I can't quit smoking, but I right now, I can give up this cigarette. Give yourself credit for what you can do right now, instead of focusing on what you can't do.
Set goals
I always hate when I read that, but it's true--goals are a motivator. But short-term goals, such as simply getting up and doing my next workout segment are equally important as long-term goals, like running a 5K. I can't run that 5K if I don't train for it, so I need the short-term goals, the daily goals as a motivator. I don't like to set weight loss goals yet; I'd rather not focus on my weight, but on my health. When you reach some of your goals, why not reward yourself? Buy some new music or a book.
Have accountability
I joined a wellness club, where I have a personalized eating and exercise plan and must weigh in every two weeks. I also signed up for my first 5K run/walk--a non-competitive fund-raiser for a local animal shelter where canine companions are invited to join you. Whether it's a program or a person, be accountable to someone. When you try to do it alone, it's too easy not to change.
Click here for your free printable to personalize with these tips, and to keep with you to remind you that YOU CAN!
Oh, and you may want to bring Billy Joel, or someone equally as entertaining along. They can be great motivators.
Blessings Along the Path,
This blog may be shared with these wonderful bloggers

What a great article! Your five tips are spot on! Thank you so much for writing this. I am currently sitting here trying to decide if I want to get my exercise in this morning or not. (Timely read?!? Ha!) Visiting from Tuesday Talk.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you, Jennifer. I admit, I wasn't sure if the "tips" were indeed spot on, but they were what worked for me. I hope that when you read this reply, it will be with a sweaty brow! And honestly? I NEVER want to get my exercise in. I wrote this on Monday after my walk that was started at 8am. Today, it was 5:30, before work, and I had to fasten a headlamp on my head because to get to where I wanted to go, I had to walk/run along a busy road. Embarrassing, encumbering, and annoying, but I did it! Go, girl!Delete
I know I can because He is with me every step of the way. I have struggled this week. Thanks for the timely encouragement.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you, Mary! I really wanted to add the spiritual in, but it would have become too lengthy, so I stuck with practical. Sometimes we need both. I so glad that I encouraged you. Thank God He IS with us every step!!!Delete
This is so motivating! Makes me want to get out there tomorrow at 5:00 when I wake up and walk. Well, maybe not that early. I power walk in the afternoons after work, so I guess I'll stick with that time. Great post to get people going no matter where they are. Thanks for sharing at Tuesday Talk today.ReplyDeleteReplies
Ugh, and I thought I got up early. 5AM? Yes, it is dark. I really don't like going out in the dark-I feel like such a dork with my headlamp, but I'd rather not encounter a wild animal or a sleepy driver. Thanks for visiting, Michelle.Delete
Such wonderful advice. This is a kick in the rear for me since I've been lazy about exercise, and coming up with every excuse under the sun. Thank you for the motivation!ReplyDeleteReplies
Well, now you've got a printout that can tell you all the ways you can say no to your excuses! My excuse this morning was, "My calves hurt. I must be running too much. Maybe I'll take today off." Yeah, that didn't work. I went anyway, and funny, my calves didn't hurt so much once I got moving. We'll tell ourselves anything to get out of hard work. Thanks for popping in.Delete
Mary, you're giving me some good encouragement that I need to get back to low carb, low sugar eating! Thanks for these 5 tips. Thanks for sharing your testimony in such a transparent, winning way!ReplyDeleteReplies
You're welcome, Betsy! Thank you for stopping by. It really does make a difference, but the only way we really ever get that is by experiencing it. I pray you'll make the better choice when tempted!Delete
Mary--so many great points here!! Almost makes me want to get out there and join a gym myself. Sorta-kinda. To begin with, I'll take your advice about one day at a time--nixing one cookie at a time. Wise women and a way with words--brilliant.ReplyDelete
Thank you m'dear. Sometimes, I can actually place myself (not literally, of course) at the scene of the crime after the deed is done, and because it's a repetitive crime, I can remember the feeling--unsatisfied, mostly. That is sometimes enough. Emphasis on sometimes. Thank you for your ongoing and constant support-I sound like a Verizon commercial or some stupid thing...Delete
Yes! I love this post! Even though "resting" implies sitting still and not doing anything...it isn't true! We need both REST and DOING! Thanks for sharing. :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes! I love how we can write similar things about different things...if that makes any sense. Making a choice to move or making a choice to rest are both conscious decisions to basically not do what we want, but to follow what's best for us, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.Delete
You're speaking encouragement, Mare. You're speaking encouragement. I've gained weight "outta nowhere" in the past 2-3 years. And at the same time? I've been battling the "I wants" and other fleshly lies. Glad I popped in here today via #countingmyblessings. I'm going to "chew" on your list for a bit. ;-)ReplyDeleteReplies
Kristi, I noticed when I turned 40 that I suddenly got "thick" around the middle. Where did that come from? Once menopause kicked in, forget it. I took on a frump-bod. Glad I could encourage you! I love the "tongue" in cheek pun...yes, pun intended.Delete

Thank you, Denise.Delete
I often ask my coaching clients, "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time" but somehow that doesn't seem right to say with your thoughts here today, Mary! If you catch my drift! ;-) Anyway, I totally agree with you on the perseverance and planning that is so key to a weight-loss or healthy life plan. I have had Rheumatoid Arthritis since 1993, so I feel like a regular exercise routine is absolutely essential for me to remain mobile. It truly lessens my flares and inflammation in so many ways. But I am a bit bummed that the same (or more sometimes) amount of exercise doesn't bring the same results now that I'm in those menopausal years. So even though it's not an excuse, it truly is hurdle I'm ever-so-persistently trying to jump over! Thanks for the inspiring and transparent post, my friend!ReplyDeleteReplies
I would think that having a debilitating disease, such as RA would give you a great excuse not to exercise--at least it would me---all the more reason, right? When I was thrown into full blown menopause after a hysterectomy almost 2 years ago, I almost gave up trying to get healthy again. With me, I stay stagnant and complain until I can't stand myself anymore, then I get up and go all gusto. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have an in between switch. Hubbles just stands by and watches my typical crash and burns. I have to make a conscious choice every day, every hour, sometimes every moment! thanks for your comments Beth.Hope the conference was great!Delete
I've struggled with my weight for many years. Exercise is hard for me, because my body is in so much physical pain...ALL the time. I am hoping I can start eating better. I know if I lost some weight, moving would become easier.ReplyDeleteReplies
Barbie, I read your comment this am before my walk/run, and during it I thought of your predicament, and prayed for you. You're in a tricky place, and that can be discouraging, I'm sure. Maybe a small goal might bring you a big victory, like eliminating one unhealthy thing from your diet. If you read my reply to Beth, above, you'll see that I jump into things with both feet and don't come up for air. That's not always good, because I fizzle out just as often. So I think my family and friends are watching me to see how long "this phase" will last. They're probably surprised that my Jesus phase has been going on for over 20 years! (That's a testament to how real Jesus is!) I hope and pray you can figure it out, with God's help. Thanks for your honesty. Hugs, friend!Delete

Today is the first day of the holy month, Ramadan. Here in the city of Kuala Lumpur, eateries are still open as usual though lunch-hour traffic is much reduced.
If you are visiting Malaysia, rest assured that you can still find food throughout the day.
The holy month of Ramadan brings out the best in Muslims, with many saying that fasting is about patience, showing compassion for the less fortunate and trying to become a better person.

Food Prices and the Poor: The Differential Welfare Effects of Price Levels and Volatility Chris Barrett Cornell University Cornell Institute for Public Affairs Spring 2012 Colloquium February 2, 2012
Since 2007, real food price levels and variance have risen sharply as compared to the preceding 17 yrs: 2007-11 mean >70% higher vs. 1990-2006, coefficient of variation up >120% Factual background Data source: FAO food price index, 1/1990-10/2011
Why higher, more variable food prices? Confluence of demand and supply side factors: 1)Continued significant demand growth in emerging markets 2)Increasing diversion of food and feed to biofuels production 3)Weather shocks in major growing reasons 4)Financial mkt spillovers/increased commodity speculation 5)Trade policies/gov't purchases aggravate problems Much dispute as to the weighting among factors Key summary statistic: Stocks-to-use ratios fall and then prices rise and become more volatile … the basic economics of storable commodity prices. Causes
Differentiate between levels and volatility A key error in contemporary policy dialogue: Policymakers and commentators routinely conflate high price levels – a cross-sectional mean – with high food price volatility – a (function of) time series variance – perhaps b/c they naturally correlated by common structural causes. But food price levels and food price volatility have different consequences for different groups. This matters, especially for the political economy of current policy dialogues about the "food price crisis". Consequences
The welfare effects of price levels Well understood: Buyers lose, sellers gain from higher prices Easily reflected in "net benefit ratio" (marketable surplus as proportion of income)= welfare elasticity wrt price (i) Typically increases w/ income in developing countries (ii) Empirical regularity: │ NBR │ NBR>0 │. Therefore, food price rises hurt more than symmetric price drops Consequences Source: Barrett and Dorosh (1996 AJAE)
The welfare effects of price volatility Well understood: Sellers worse off from price risk (Baron 1970, Sandmo 1971). Less well understood: Welfare effects of price risk are ambiguous for net buyer households (Newbery & Stiglitz 1981, Finkelshtain & Chalfant 1991, Barrett 1996). If most of the poor live in such households, how do volatile food prices affect the poor? Put differently, who favors more stable food prices, poorer net food buyers, better-off net food sellers, or both? Consequences
The welfare effects of price volatility Bellemare, Barrett & Just (2011) derive an expression for multivariate price risk aversion and compute the WTP for price stabilization (build on Finkelshtain & Chalfant 1997): The sign is ambiguous. For sellers (M, β>0), however, it's almost surely positive. But what about for buyers and what's the distributional implication of price risk preferences? Bellemare, Barrett & Just (2011) use panel data from rural Ethiopia to explore that question. Consequences
The welfare effects of price volatility Consequences Result: The best off 40% of hhs favor price food stabilization; the poor (but not very poorest) favor unstable prices.
Summary of welfare effects of high and more variable/volatile food prices If risk effects are second-order compared to levels effects: 1)Price risk averse net buyers unambiguously worse off … but it's unclear how many such people there are. 2)Price risk loving net buyers are worse off, but greater price volatility limits losses. 3)Net sellers are better off, but more price risk limits gains. Consequences
Resulting political unrest Well understood: High food prices (or resulting policy responses, such as "land grabs") sow sociopolitical discontent in developing countries: e.g., Haiti, Madagascar 2008; Egypt, Tunisia 2011. Less well understood: Higher food price volatility is negatively associated with political unrest in developing countries once one controls (even instruments) for food price levels, which exert a strong positive effect on political unrest (Barrett and Bellemare 2011; Bellemare 2011). Indirect corroboration
Current food price policy dialogue But the push for reducing price volatility, rather than for reducing price levels, implicitly favors better off producers (e.g., in Europe, North America, Australia, Brazil) over poorer consumers globally. Hence Marc Bellemare and my July Foreign Affairs paper: Policy implications
Current food price policy dialogue Prices will come down and stabilize naturally if/when/as supply-demand balance restored and food stocks replenish. High opportunity costs, especially for poorer net consumers, if scarce resources (e.g., $, technical skill, political attention and will) devoted to active food price stabilization over: -accelerating supply expansion via productivity growth or -facilitating price stabilization through agricultural trade liberalization and improved physical and institutional infrastructure for food distribution in poor areas. Policy implications
Current food price policy dialogue Yet typical (misguided) statements by prominent people include claims such as: French President Sarkozy: "If we don't do anything [about food price volatility], we run the risk of food riots in the poorest countries." World Bank President Zoellick: "[Food] prices remain volatile and millions of people around the world are still suffering. The World Bank has been working … to protect the most vulnerable from the dangers of food price volatility." Homi Kharas, Brookings: "The crux of the food price challenge is about price volatility rather than high prices per se. It is the rapid and unpredictable changes in food prices that wreak havoc on markets, politics, and social stability." Policy implications
Current food price policy dialogue At least three candidate explanations: 1) Genuine confusion over terms. Volatility is a latent concept proxied by a variety of statistical measures about which lay people are typically imperfectly informed. Or just sloppy use of the term to blend levels/variability/range. 2) Conflation of correlation with causality. High food prices harm the poor and cause political unrest. And high food price levels and high price volatility are correlated. 3) Political capture. Powerful farm lobbies are able to use populist language to tilt policies to benefit small, better-off interest groups. Policy implications

The federal and New York State governments sued the joint venture that operates New York City's popular hop-on, hop-off tour bus service on Tuesday, accusing it of being a monopoly and using its dominant position to overcharge customers.
The joint venture, Twin America, was created in 2009 by the merger of two tour bus companies, City Sights and Gray Line New York, which was operated by Coach USA. The complaint claimed that the merger eliminated competition, paving the way for a price hike of about 10 percent.
"This lawsuit is an important step toward restoring competition and protecting tourists in New York City," Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman said in a statement. "The iconic double-decker Gray Line and City Sights buses are seen all over New York City, but few people know they are run as a monopoly."
George Lence, a spokesman for Twin America, which is based in Delaware, denied the accusations, saying in a statement that the company would "robustly" defend itself.Continue reading the main story
The lawsuit, he said, did "not reflect the improvements, increased services and greater value our joint venture has delivered to customers over the past three years, despite a very challenging economy."
The double-decker buses, which take visitors on guided tours around the city and allow them to get on and off at different locations, serve about two million tourists a year, the attorney general said. The business has about $100 million in revenue a year.
Before the joint venture agreement, Gray Line and City Sights accounted for about 99 percent of the hop-on, hop-off market, the suit said. Between 2005, when City Sights began operations, and the merger in 2009, the two companies engaged in "vigorous" competition, which benefited customers, the filing said.
According to the lawsuit, which was filed in United States District Court in Manhattan, increasing profits and eliminating competition were central reasons for entering into the joint venture. Immediately after the merger, Twin America raised its base fares by $5, from $49 to $54, according to the suit.
"By merging their hop-on, hop-off bus tour operations, the parties ended the fierce competition between them that had benefited consumers," the filing said.
No other company has emerged to challenge Twin America's dominance of the market.Continue reading the main story
