I was looking over my movie collection tonight. Its a modest collection; the few DVDs that I took to college with me, bought for $5 at Target, or got on Amazon. I even have doubles of some of them! (I needed it on Blu-ray too).
This is going somewhere I promise.
I have been thinking/reading about what it means to be a man in this day and age. Some authors think (and rightly so, in my opinion) that the very soul of man has been lost. In Wild at Heart, John Eldredge argues that most males (across America primarily, sorry guys) while nice, are not the men of courage and strength that we read about it the history books.
Fortunately, filmmakers (God bless 'em) have turned these history books into films.
So, back to perusing my DVDs.
I decided over the weekend, to watch one 'man movie' every night. Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan, Braveheart...the classics. One night after watching another celluloid hero save the day and the damsel in distress, I started looking at the copyright dates. Most of the films that I look to as what I call 'The Canon of Manhood' were surprisingly made in the late '90s or very early 2000's. I racked my brain trying to think of any movies in the same vein that were more recent; the 'new Braveheart'. I couldn't think of anything. The only movies I could think of were 'safer' movies with 'safe heroes', guys that just kill everyone in sight (sometimes for no reason), or films about drinking way to much and making the decisions that inevitably follow.
It got me thinking: The movies, tv shows, music and pop culture of 'now' are all promoting a certain kind of man (and woman). In the last few years I have seen a change in this image and the movies seem to back it up. Maybe the films of the 'Canon' were just the dying breath of the resistance. They sure don't make 'em like they used to.
In watching these movies from a few years ago that promote the courage and honor I was fortunate enough to be exposed to growing up, I see the danger that Eldredge claims to see so clearly. I think I might see it too. Manhood is under attack, there is no doubt about it.
My solution; my small way of fighting back was to take a trip back in time and watch these films that promote the best and most neglected traits of manhood. In a culture that never ceases to look forward, I think its time to look back. This weekend I visited soldiers and brothers and and some guys who need to blow up some guns in Greece, just to see what they have to say about the state of things. It wasn't great feedback.
I can't do most of the things they did, but it can't hurt to try and be a little more like them. Watching all those movies definitely made me see some room for improvement in my life.
I would love it if someone started making a new generation of 'man movies' to add to the 'Canon.' However, maybe we don't need more movies. Maybe its time to start acting more like the men we want to be in our workplaces, homes, and favorite bars. Maybe we've watched our heroes fight it out long enough.
I think we could be heroes too. Maybe they'll make a movie about it.

Our neighbor, Canada, has just released a draft of new and simple food guidelines for public comment (1). Unlike the USA's 'food plate' or 'food pyramid' recommendations by food group/category, Canada's guidelines are simple and idea-based (although they do include a sample 'plate' (2)). They also include an interactive "My Food Guide" (3), that can be tailored to reflect traditions and food choices of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities.
These guidelines are good not only for human health but also for that of the planet, and do not play into the pockets of industrial lobbyists.
The following are a list of recommendations (from a Food Revolution article about the draft guidelines (4)):
- Focus on plant-based foods. The draft guidelines recommend regular intake of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and protein-rich foods, especially plant-based sources of protein. In their list of proteins, legumes (such as beans,) nuts and seeds, and soy products are listed first. They say a shift towards more plant-based foods is needed, without necessarily excluding animal foods altogether. They point out the need to eat less red meat and replace foods like cream, high-fat cheeses, and butter with foods such as nuts, seeds, and avocados.
- Drink plain water as the beverage of choice. In order reduce the consumption of sugar and reduce the frequency at which teeth are exposed to sugar, regular intake of water is recommended.
- Limit the intake of processed or prepared foods and beverages high in sodium and sugar.
- Plan and prepare healthy meals and snacks. Few Canadians are preparing meals from scratch and many are, instead, relying on convenience foods, so planning and preparing healthy meals at home is recommended.
- Share meals with friends and family when possible. According to the guiding principles, having meals together can reinforce positive eating habits and help children develop healthy attitudes toward food.
- Be more mindful about food. The guidelines encourage people to learn more about where food comes from and how it's prepared. Other practices they encourage include taking time to eat and savor every bite, paying attention to feelings of hunger and fullness, and avoiding distractions while eating.

Our distinctive Damascus Stainless Steel wedding, commitment, diamond engagement, and men's rings are handcrafted to your specifications. This guide will help you maintain and revitalize your unique Damascus Stainless Steel ring.
Through proper care and preventative actions, you can maintain the look and feel of your Damascus Stainless Steel ring. Typically, you will be able to restore the surface finish in 60 seconds.
Contact us. We would be happy to discuss any questions you may have about ring care.
Andrew Nyce Designs uses austenitic Damascus Stainless Steel. From a ring care standpoint, austenitic stainless steel is considered corrosion-resistant and has high hardness.
Surface FinishYou can easily maintain the surface finish yourself using the ring care kit provided with every ring purchased by Andrew Nyce Designs. Follow the instructions provided below:
To revitalize a matte surface finish
To revitalize a polished surface finish
For the inside finish of the ring, you can use the Scotch Brite pad method, as described above, to achieve a matte surface finish. If you prefer a semi-polished finish, use the polishing cloth provided in your ring care kit.
If the precious metal liner, edges or channel become nicked or burnished, you can use any method described above to restore the matte or polished surface finish.
Special Handling Austenitic stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and, therefore, does not require special handling or treatment.
Special care instructions apply to Damascus Stainless Steel rings with platinum channels, liners, or edges. Although, platinum is very durable and scratch-resistant, rings should be removed during heavy work. If the platinum surface becomes scratched or gouged, it should be buffed and polished professionally to help retain its natural luster.
Slight bumps and taps occur during the normal wearing of your Damascus Stainless Steel ring. Over time, gemstones can become loose no matter how expertly the initial setting has been done. In fact, gemstones can become so loose that just one additional tap or bump could pop the gemstones out of their settings.
Because of this, Andrew Nyce Designs advises that any Damascus ring containing gemstones be cleaned and inspected by a trusted jeweler after the first month of wear, and then at least every 6 months thereafter. The cleaning will keep the gemstones looking their best. And the inspection will determine whether the gemstone is still tightly held in place by the setting or whether there has been any structural damage to either the gemstone or setting.
We offer the following suggestions:

(Dec 25, 2016) "Just one Christmas with you is better than no Christmas with you at all. This year was very challenging for daddy and I, but we felt you here with us. You my angel, helped us find laughter and joy again during the past few days, and for that we are grateful.
It would have been so easy to forget Christmas this year, but we could not. We know how much family meant to you, and wanted to honor your love for family. You inspired us to share Christmas Eve surround by family. The singing, laughter, and love made the day much more bareable.
Tears could have flowed for days, but you reminded us of the meaning of Christmas. Joy, happiness, and seeing smiles and excitement of others. This is what I see when I watch this video from last year. I see excitements, smiles, and happiness in your face. Your excitement filled my heart with complete joy.
The normal holiday filled with singing was almost silenced, but we wanted you to hear our music in heaven. The family celebrated your love for singing, and their passion for music. I've learned to appreciate the healing powers of music. Daddy always said it brought him through alot of difficult times in his life, with this being the most difficult. I pray each day that he finds his passion again. I know it is just difficult right now, because it reminds him of your times together.
We will carry on for you, and honor everything you brought to our lives. I promise.
Hugs, kisses and high fives "Baby Girl". You are deeply missed by the entire family.

Paul Newman 1925 - 2008
Paul Leonard Newman was born in January of 1925, the second son of Arthur and Theresa Newman in Cleveland, Ohio. The Newman's were a well-to-do family and Paul grew up in a nice home in Shaker Heights. Newman's father was the owner of a highly successful sporting goods store. Paul's mother and his uncle Joe's interest in creative arts rubbed off on him.
By 1950, the 25 year old Newman had graduated high school, been kicked out of Ohio University for unruly behavior, served three years in the Navy during World War II as a radio operator, graduated from Ohio's Kenyon College, married his first wife, Jackie, and had his first child, Scott. 1950 was also the year that Paul's father died. When he became successful in later years, Newman said if he had any regrets it would be that his father wasn't around to see it. He brought Jackie back to Shaker Heights and he ran his father's sporting goods store for a short period. Then, knowing that wasn't the career path he wanted to take, he moved Jackie and Scott to New Haven, Connecticut where he would attend Yale University's School of Drama. While doing a play there, Paul was spotted by two agents who invited him to come to New York City to pursue a career as a professional actor.
After moving to New York, Paul acted in guest spots for various television shows and in 1953 came a big break. He got the part as an understudy of the lead role in the successful Broadway play Picnic. Through this play is how he met actress Joanne Woodward, who was also an understudy in the play. While they got on very well and there was a strong attraction, Paul was married and his second child, Susan, was born that year. During this time Newman was also accepted into the much admired and popular New York Actor's Studio, although he wasn't technically auditioning.
In 1954 a film Paul was very reluctant to do was released. It was called The Silver Chalice (1954). To this day, he his still embarrassed about the film and revels in making fun of it. He immediately wanted to return to the stage and performed in The Desperate Hours. In 1956, Newman got the chance to redeem himself in the film world by doing Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956) and critics praised his performance. In 1957, with a handful of films to his credit, he was cast in The Long, Hot Summer (1958) co-starring none other than Joanne Woodward. During the shooting of this film, they realized they were meant to be together and by now, so did Paul's wife Jackie. After Jackie gave Paul a divorce, he and Joanne married in Las Vegas in January of 1958. They went on to have three daughters together and raised them in Westport, Connecticut. In 1959 Paul received his first Academy Award nomination for Best Actor in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958). The 1960's would bring Paul Newman into superstar status as he became one of the most popular actors of the decade and garnered three more Best Actor Oscar nominations for The Hustler (1961), Hud (1963) and Cool Hand Luke (1967). In 1968 his debut directorial effort Rachel, Rachel (1968) was given good marks and although the film and Joanne Woodward were nominated for Oscars, Newman was not nominated for Best Director. He did, however, win a Golden Globe for his direction. 1969 would bring the popular screen duo Paul Newman and Robert Redford together for the first time when Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) was released. It was a box office smash. Throughout the 1970's, Newman would have hits and misses from such popular films as The Sting (1973) and The Towering Inferno (1974) to lesser known films as The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972) to a now cult classic Slap Shot (1977). After the death of his only son, Scott, in 1978, Newman's personal life and film choices moved in a different direction. His acting work in the 1980's and on is what is often most praised by critics today. He became more at ease with himself and it was evident in The Verdict (1982) for which he received his 6th Best Actor Oscar nomination and in 1987 finally received his first Oscar for The Color of Money (1986). Friend and director of Somebody Up There Likes Me (1956), Robert Wise accepted the award on Newman's behalf as he did not attend the ceremony. Films were not the only thing on his mind during this period. A passionate race car driver since the early 1970's, Newman would become co-owner of Newman-Haas racing in 1982 and also founded Newman's Own, a successful food company he built from the ground up in which all the proceeds go to charity. He would also start The Hole in the Wall Gang Camps, an organization for terminally ill children.
He is as well known today for his philanthropic ways and highly successful business ventures as he his for his legendary actor status. Now in his 80s, Newman enjoys a near 50-year marriage to Joanne in Connecticut, their main residence since moving away from the bright lights of Hollywood in 1960, still attends races, is very much involved in his charitable organizations and in 2006 opened a restaurant called Dressing Room, which helps out the Westport Country Playhouse, a place the Newman's take great pride in. In 2007 he made some headlines when he said he was losing his invention and confidence in his acting abilities and that acting is "pretty much a closed book for me." Whether he's on the screen or not, Paul Newman remains synonymous with the anti-heroism of the 1960s and 1970s cinema and rebellious nature his characters so often embodied.
Paul Newman passed away on 26 September 2008 after along battle with cancer.
To Joanne, his children and friends we send our heartfelt condolences.

This film deserved every Oscar thrown at it. It looks good, it's funny, it's extremely complex but doesn't dwell on the fact for a moment: if you can spot the twists, you haven't got time to sit back smugly as they pop up - everything rushes on. The acting's good as is the story, one carrying the other. I can't think of a movie where people so obviously had as much fun - maybe (Soderbergh's) Ocean's Eleven, or even Some Like It Hot? The soundtrack is brilliant too, contemporaneous Joplin rags evoking the time and its contradictions artlessly.
The bit that raises this film the one notch higher though is a short, central sequence, in which the music plays as high profile a part as any character or narrative aside. It's the night before The Sting and Redford is drawn to the drugstore girl who's trying to leave town. Perfectly framed by the bittersweetest of the blues/rags he asks her out for a drink - revealing his vulnerability for the first time in a movie where everybody's pretending to be someone else: 'It's 2 o'clock in the morning and I don't know nobody.' Despite all the caper and thrill of grifting all he wants is what we all want. It's a rich, compassionate heart to a virtuosic piece of film-making. 9.5/10
The fix is in, the odds are set, and the boys are ready to play for the big time, both on the screen and behind the camera in this breezy, endlessly entertaining movie classic.
Robert Redford is small-time hustler Johnny Hooker, happy to play the marks in Joliet until the murder of his mentor pushes him to go up against the nastiest mug in Chicago, Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw.) Hooker'd rather ice Lonnegan outright, but will settle for a big con with the help of a slightly wobbly but game scammer named Henry Gondorff, played as only Paul Newman can.
Newman and Redford, along with director George Roy Hill, had a lot riding on this pony, given it was a follow-up to their earlier "Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid." To measure up, they had to produce nothing short of another classic. And so they did. "The Sting" won the Best Picture Oscar in 1973, and remains the sentimental favorite among many in choosing between the two films.
Comparing "The Sting" to "Butch Cassidy" is kind of overdone sport, and tempers, as Lonnegan would say, run hot. But you can see why "The Sting" worked as well as it did by looking at how the director and the stars played it differently within the same basic framework as "Butch Cassidy." Newman and Redford are again outlaws and underdogs. Period detail abounds here as it did with "Butch Cassidy," and there's another memorable score amid the proceedings, Scott Joplin rags modernized by Marvin Hamlisch. The score even produced another hit, "The Entertainer," to compare with "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head."
What's different about "The Sting," and what makes it such a classic in its own right, is the way the stars service the plot. In "Butch Cassidy," Newman and Redford's comradeship was the story. Here, the chemistry between the two actors is minimized in favor of spinning a yarn with enough red herrings to feed the Swedish navy. The tale here is better than "Butch Cassidy," which is a more elegiac film with grander cinematography and funnier set pieces. "The Sting" is an edge-of-your-seat caper flick from beginning to end.
You can't really call "The Sting" a comedy. Though there are many laughs, especially when Newman hooks Shaw during a poker game, Hill won't let the audience relax enough for that. What this is is a con game, played on the audience, designed not to cheat but entertain by means of clever hoodwinking and constant misdirection plays.
You'll get no spoilers from me. This is one worth sitting through with no expectations. Five gets you ten you'll enjoy Newman and Redford, and a terrific supporting cast (one advantage over "Butch Cassidy") that includes Charles Durning, Eileen Brennan, Dana Elcar, Harold Gould, and Mr. Hand himself, Ray Walston. There's another familiar face from "Butch Cassidy," Charles Dierkop, Flat Nose Curry in "Butch Cassidy" and Lonnegan's right hand here. The best performance may be Robert Shaw's; he exudes menace aplenty but some humanity, too, when he takes Hooker under his wing after learning he came from the same hard streets of Five Points Lonnegan sprang from.
Terrific period detail, too. The dialogue is great and feels real in its Runyonesque way, while the cons are elaborate and logically played out. Watching this a second time is especially fun because once you know how the plot goes down, you find yourself catching clues you missed the first time, and enjoying the film even more for them.
Why didn't Newman and Redford team up again? Certainly there was another good movie for them to partner up in, but as Gondorff would have put it, only chumps don't quit when they're ahead.
Newman was again teamed with director George Roy Hill and Robert Redford, and the two stars again played outlaws who are basically easy-going and human, and whose criminal exploits are comically engaging…
Here the setting is Chicago in 1936… Henry Gondorff (Newman), a well-known, slight1y aging con artist, is hiding from the law, but he comes out of retirement to teach small-time hustler Johnny Hooker (Redford) the "Big Con." With the assistance of a large group of amiable crooks, the two work out an elaborate scheme to cheat an important racketeer, Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw), out of $500,000.
Unlike "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," the film is inordinately complicated, and has many twists, turns and surprises… It is actually one con game after another, with the audience tricked as well as the characters… The steps in the swindle fall neatly into place in the manner of television's 'Mission: Impossible,' although once we think about the plot, it makes little sense… But we're not meant to think; "The Sting" is designed, and works extremely well, as clever entertainment…
Gondorff, like Butch, is the "brains" of the outfit, but he is unmistakably experienced and professional, and has little need for reassurance… In fact, Hooker, who is somewhat childlike and naive, is actually closer to Butch… He also shares Butch's tendency toward idealism: his purpose in the scheme is to avenge a friend's death, whereas Gondorff does it simply because "it seems worthwhile."
The pair have almost a father-son relationship (Gondorff continually calls Hooker "kid"), which recalls not so much the Butch-Sundance friendship as the many films in which an older man breaks a novice into a profession… Of course, Newman is too old and Redford too young for such a relationship, but the film is not intended as a meaningful character study that can hold up under analysis…
Both actors are constantly charming, but neither is required to do much serious acting… Newman's underplaying begins to look like posing rather than performing… He does have one lively, rather funny scene—a poker game in which Gondorff and Lonnegan try to out-cheat each other… To annoy Lonnegan, whom he wants to provoke into a larger swindle, Gondorff pretends to be drunk, speaks crudely, belches, deliberately mispronounces his opponent's name, and wipes his nose with a necktie Lonnegan has given him…
Perhaps it was the Newman-Redford team that made "The Sting" popular, and Newman alone may have difficulty drawing audiences, but one thing is certain: In fifty one years of film acting, Newman has become one of the screen's most magnetic stars… Even today the very mention of his name evokes an aura of moody rebelliousness, rugged individualism, cool detachment and, above all, overpowering sex appeal… And he has created more memorable characters than have most actors in much longer periods of time… At least four—"The Hustler," "Hud," "Cool Hand Luke" and "Butch Cassidy"—are so well-known, so indelibly impressed on the public consciousness, that they stand among the immortals of the screen…
"The Sting" received ten Academy Award nominations—more than any other Newman film…
* It was just prior to Elizabeth Taylor's presentation of the Best Picture Oscar for this film that the streaker Robert Opel darted across the stage as David Niven was introducing her. It was this incident (among others) that inspired singer Ray Stevens to write the song "The Streak" that went to the top of the US charts the month after the awards. Incidentally, Opel was found murdered in his San Francisco gallery in 1979.
* Robert Shaw injured his ankle and incorporated the resulting limp into his performance.
* David S. Ward got the idea for this movie when he was working on the script for Steelyard Blues (1973), which includes a pickpocketing scene. Researching this, Ward found himself reading about con artists. Ward had shown the other screenplay to Tony Bill, so he now gave him an outline of this story. Bill liked it immediately and brought in Julia Phillips and Michael Phillips; the three then produced both films. Ward wrote the script with Robert Redford in mind as Hooker, but Redford initially turned the part down. Even after changing his mind, he didn't expect the movie to be a hit. Robert Shaw got the part of Lonnegan only after Richard Boone and another actor had declined it. George Roy Hill saw the screenplay by accident and asked for the director's job. He routinely showed his projects to Paul Newman, and Newman was pleased to join this one. Hill wanted to film the picture on location, but Henry Bumstead was adamant that it would be much too hard to get the period appearance right; for example, things like lane markings on the streets. In the end, the only location shooting was a few days' worth in Chicago and Los Angeles; most of the exteriors were filmed on Universal's back lot.
* According to costume designer Edith Head's biography, Redford and Newman, both of whom have blue eyes, wanted their shirts to be blue in order to emphasize their eyes. As a compromise, Head outfitted each man in blue in alternating scenes. Unfortunately, although it is an attractive story, it's a complete myth. A simple viewing of the film reveals the truth. Newman is never outfitted in blue in the whole film. He is first seen in a white vest in the brothel scenes. On the train he alternates between a brown striped shirt and a white one, which may or may not be a continuity error. From then until the end of the film, he is seen exclusively in a dinner jacket and white shirt. Redford wears a blue shirt on a couple of occasions, but even this doesn't really fit with this oddly persistent legend.
* Redford's character (Johnny Hooker) is supposedly named after blues legend John Lee Hooker.
* The score of the film consists of Scott Joplin ragtime compositions, which were composed between 1900 and 1910. Although The Sting (1973) helped bring Joplin's ragtime back into American popular culture, they actually predate the period of the story by 25 years.
* Technical advisor John Scarne doubled for Paul Newman's hands in the film. It was he who did all of the card manipulations and deck switching in the film. It would have taken a long time for someone to be able to master all of the card routines shown.
* "The Big Con" by David W. Maurer, originally published in 1940 and reissued in 1999, served as the source for this picture.
* Characters Henry Gondorff, JJ Singleton, Kid Twist and Eddie Niles have names similar to genuine con artists of the first quarter of the twentieth century, whose exploits are detailed in Maurer's "The Big Con".
* Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley had refused for two years to allow any filming in the city if it was depicted negatively, but allowed the producers of this film to shoot there for three days.
* Writer David S. Ward taped a five-minute pitch of the project, but refused to reveal the ending until the producers read the entire script.
* Jack Nicholson turned down the role of Johnny Hooker before Robert Redford changed his mind and decided to play it.
* The movie was filmed on the backlot of Universal studios and the diner in which Hooker meets Lonnegan is the same diner interior used in Back to the Future (1985) in which Marty McFly first meets his father and calls Doc Brown.
* First Universal Studios film to win the Best Picture Oscar since All Quiet on the Western Front (1930).
* The movie is based on the real-life exploits of grifter brothers Charley and Fred Gondorf, whose experiences culminated in a scam similar to the one shown in the film, known in 1914 as "the wire" or "the big store." Unlike the movie, however, the actual "mark" was more than happy to testify against Charley Gondorf, the front man of the scam, and he spent time in Sing Sing, as did his younger brother a year later for running another scam. Both served a few years and were released. As late as 1924, when Charley was 65 and Fred 60, they were still active, and running new scams.
* Robert Redford didn't see the movie until June 2004.
* Richard Boone was the first choice for the role of Lonnegan. Oliver Reed was offered the role but refused to test for it (he would later play Lonnegan in the sequel). Stephen Boyd was also considered.
* The Chicago Elevated stop used in the sequence where Snyder chases Hooker is the South Third Street station. There is still a stop there, on the current green line, but the building shown in the film was destroyed by a fire in 1974 and replaced in 1976. Though shown painted white in the movie, the old station probably would still have been the original natural brick color in the 1930s. The A/B signs on the platform are also an anachronism: skip stop service was not introduced until after WWII.
* Re-released as a double feature with American Graffiti (1973).
* Edith Head won her 8th and final Best Costume Design Academy Award for this film.

School Certificate (SC) students no more have to wait until the end of January or the beginning of February (as it used to be the case some years ago) to find out about how they fared in their exams. Rather, SC results will be unveiled soon—it is reported that it might happen any day next week. No date has officially been communicated, but the authorities are likely to reveal the information by this coming Friday.
As for Higher School Certificate (HSC) students, they will be getting their results on the first week of February.

I feel unbelievably blessed for the family, friends, and opportunities that have been part of my 2013. I'm especially thankful for the firsts that happened this year.
To name a few: My first trip to Sundance Film Festival in January. My first time speaking at a career conference at Elon University, plus my first day of work at 360i in February. My first time helping to organize a short film premier in March. My first headshot photo shoot in April. My first time surprising my mom for Mother's Day in South Carolina in May. My first indoor cycling class in June. My first trip to Rhode Island and 25th birthday in July. My first night in my new apartment and first blog post in August. My first time helping to run a leadership conference, as well as my first cooking lesson in September. My first post-grad trip to D.C. and trying indoor rock climbing in October. My first half marathon registration in November. And my first time training for an endurance event (I'm up to a 10K distance!) in December.
Of course, this year also had its challenges. But the positives stand out far more than the negatives. I'm eager to see what 2014 holds for me, and I wish you the very best in the coming year.
Now, throw on some sequins and red lipstick. It's time to pop the bubbly.

Learn about Salt Lake Community College running club, and registering for discussion sections and departmental electives. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. College coaches spend a lot of their time at summer sports camps evaluating athletes, and offering tips and direction. This is a great chance to meet the coaching staff in a relaxed setting. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Salt Lake Community College Track information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Salt Lake Community College.
Track stars have revealed the secret to developing running speed. Most athletes simply run out of breath long before they need to stop running, because they aren't able to get the oxygen into their muscles fast enough. By taking deep breaths, and building up the supply of oxygen in your blood, you can prevent muscle cramps. As lactic acid builds up, and muscle fatigue sets in, untrained players think they've reached their limit.
Track teams, and well-coached basketball and football teams for that matter, train by sprinting short distances, over and over. It's not fun, but it works. After a few months of training, the lungs begin to process oxygen more efficiently, and players find that they can run long distances non-stop, or sprint for a longer period of time. Students must meet specific eligibility requirements each year to participate in Radford University gymnastics. Beyond consideration for Salt Lake Community College running club, you may think about Community College of Baltimore County course requirements for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

It was supposed to be held Monday. Instead, newly-elected DeKalb County State's Attorney Rick Amato signed a court document that day, postponing the court date to the end of January. Amato didn't immediately return calls from WNIJ regarding his rationale for the decision. U Of I Projection Says Budget Gap Would Take 10+ Years To Close By Jamey Dunn • Dec 5, 2016 Flickr User Ken Teegardin/Flickr CC by SA 2.0 New projections show nibbling around the edges of state budget problems won't help Illinois. The state went for nearly a year and a half without a full budget. But there's a surprising level of consensus about what must be done if lawmakers and Gov. Bruce Rauner can come to a compromise on the governor's policy demands and ultimately get down to trying to close the budget gap.

Wisconsin Counties Using Machines In Ballot Recount, Despite Request For Hand Count By Katie Finlon • Nov 30, 2016 Wikimedia The Green County clerk in Wisconsin says working nights and weekends are in his immediate future. That's due to the ballot recount requested for the state by one presidential nominee. About 19,000 ballots total were cast in Green County for the general election earlier this month. That's according to Green County County Clerk Michael Doyle. "We've got, like, 3,000 absentee ballots," Doyle said. "That really makes it very difficult for a recount because all of the ballot envelopes have to be certified and it just takes a lot more time."

LUMIBRITE Teeth Whitening − Butler PA
Having a beautiful smile may be even easier than you think. Many people achieve the look they've been dreaming of with our simple "whitening" procedure.
What is LUMIBRITE?
LUMIBRITE Chairside allows you to achieve dramatic results quickly. When used with the Sapphire Supreme Light, the system is proven to whiten smiles up to 8 shades in only 30 minutes. LUMIBRITE Chairside also allows you the flexibility to whiten smiles without light activation. Thanks to the integrated fluoride, you can protect your teeth from demineralization and caries.
Why should I have my teeth whitened?
Dental whitening can be used to correct many tooth discolorations. These discolorations may have been caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage to teeth. Using the latest in whitening technology, we can offer a safe method for creating a beautiful, "brilliant" smile. In cases of extreme tooth discoloration, crowns or veneers may be the only choice. But because of the low cost of bleaching treatments, bleaching is nearly always worth a solid try.
Key Benefits
- Corrects brown, yellow and mottled tooth staining
- Works on people of all ages.
- Is a near permanent solution for a "dull" smile, restoring brightness and bringing a smile alive.
How is it done?
An impression is taken to make a specialized "mouth guard" or "stent" to hold the bleach against the teeth. The material is used each night for about 3-5 minutes for a week or two, after which significant whitening will occur. In some cases, the change is nothing short of brilliant. For confidence in appearance, bleaching technology offers improvements in yellowing, aging or stained teeth. For very severely stained teeth, crowns or veneers may be more appropriate.
Over-the-counter bleaching agents are available at drug stores and pharmacies. However, since these products can harm the gums and teeth, it's better to use products that our practice recommends.
All Treatments
Please call our practice to schedule your consultation: ☎ Butler Office Phone Number 724-282-4436 or fill out our Contact Form.

Thou Shalt Not Whine review
THOU SHALT NOT WHINE by January Jones: It's not just you. Anyone who goes shopping, watches TV, or has children knows there is a world-wide epidemic of whining that is out of control! Jones surveyed a wide cross-section of people to find out why they whine and what they whine about. This humorous '11th Commandment' against whining looks at why people whine and how to cure it. Thou Shalt Not Whine is guaranteed to make you laugh at yourself and others.
I hate whining. I have 3 kids and whining drives me nuts. But it is not just my kids who whine! I do it too. Thou Shalt Not Whine targets each chapter to a specific audience (kids, grandparents, best friends, singles, couples, etc). Jones gives the top ten most common whines and then gives practical solutions to stopping the whining! She gives reasons why the whining is happening and how to fix it. She has a wonderful sense of humour and I really appreciated that about the book. The book is laid out well and the lighthearted humour makes this tough topic much more enjoyable to read about!

Choose from Four Options
- $49 for a concealed handgun license course for one ($100 value)
- $89 for a concealed handgun license course for two ($200 value)
- $89 for a concealed handgun license course for one with a handgun safety class ($200 value)
- $169 for a concealed handgun license course for two with handgun safety classes ($400 value)
Students should already know how to operate and shoot their handgun prior to taking this course, as this is not a basic handgun safety course. An optional handgun safety course is held the week before the concealed handgun course. The classroom portion of this course is held at the La Quinta Inn in Katy, Texas.
Anthony Harrison at Strategic Firearms Academy of Texas
When it comes to describing Strategic Firearms Academy of Texas's resident instructor, Anthony Harrison, "experienced" doesn't quite cover it. His resume includes years spent with the US Marine Corps, US Army, and Special Texas Rangers. Add to that certifications and degrees from institutions such as the National Rifle Association, Counter Terrorism Operations Support Group, and Center for Domestic Preparedness, and you've still only begun to skim the surface. He shares a slice of this extensive expertise with civilians during concealed-handgun-license, basic handgun safety, and defensive-pistol classes.

The Olympic Valley region in Tahoe hs recently been at the center of a battle over whether to incorporate the area into a city of less than 1,000 people. The Sacramento Business Journal reports the decision looks set to fall on the side of those hoping incorporation does not happen after an independent study looked into the available options for the area and concluded incorporation would lead to large deficits for the area.
Rival groups have been pouring over the conclusions of the study, but the main conclusion of the report is that the Olympic Valley area would not be able to sustain itself in terms of funding. Even with the inclusion of the taxes charged on potential tourists the deficit is reported to grow over the years of incorporation to around $1.8 million by the 2017-18 fiscal year. A large deficit would grow over the years as the Olympic Valley area would be forced to engage in expensive contracts with the county in a bid to complete its required services. Tourism could provide a large influx of funds for the region. However, the head of the Squaw Valley Ski Resort Andy Wirth has been against incorporation from the start. The study also claimed problems could appear if the area was affected by issues with a lack of snow that limited tourism opportunities.
Kylie Jenner has received a lot of criticism for her recent actions. The famed Kardashian star has been through controversial situations over the last few months. Kylie Jenner lied about her lips, and it was revealed that she has been getting lip filler for several months now. Many people injured their lips by trying to obtain the same appearance that Kylie Jenner has. Some people were sucking on shot glasses, and this has caused their lips to explode and swell beyond recognition. However, Gravity4 reports there is one man that has taken the Kylie Jenner look to an amazing new level.
A man named Jordan from Britain will appear on the show 'Botched,' and it seems that he has been getting way too much lip filler for the last few years of his life. Like Kylie, Jordan is addicted to the attention that his lips bring. Jordan cannot walk down the street without someone staring and commenting on his lips. However, Jordan has way too much lip filler in his mouth, and his lips regularly leak and cause him discomfort. Honestly, Jordan looks ridiculous, and so does Kylie Jenner. Why do people need to get lip filler anyways? Whatever the case may be, Jordan now needs help, and so do many people who follow in the footsteps of the Kardashians and Jenners.

Conducting global managing committee meetings and executive board conferences in India, for media holding companies and advertising conglomerates, has become a usual occurrence. However, for Euro RSCG, this is perhaps the first time that the agency is having its global managing committee in a country different from its two headquarters of Paris and New York, and the decision was to have it in India. The global management committee of Euro RSCG is meeting in Mumbai in October 2007.
Suman Srivastava, CEO, Euro RSCG India, said, "The entire managing committee would be meeting here in Mumbai, and so far we have only been meeting in Paris and New York. It's possible that Euro RSCG would be meeting like this in other countries more now, and may be even more than once a year."
Thirty international senior officials from Euro RSCG would be present in India. Some of the members from this committee in India are Mercedes Erra, Executive Co-Chairman, Euro RSCG Worldwide; Stephane Fouks, Executive Co-Chairman, Euro RSCG Worldwide; David Jones, Global CEO, Euro RSCG Worldwide; and Remi Babinet, Chief Creative Officer, Euro RSCG Worldwide among others.
Srivastava is also on this managing committee. "We are probably one of the most diversified global managing committees that there could be -- the most multi-cultural!" remarked Srivastava.
At the time of this meeting, the agency will also release its proprietary survey, the Prosumer study titled 'The Bunty Syndrome', which has been conducted in 12 emerging cities of India.

This last week the British Parliament voted 382 to 128, to allow the 'three parent family'.
Mitochondrial disease affects approx. 2,473 women in the UK. Not many, you from larger populations may say, actually not many for us who only have 60 million people in the Islands. But for each of those women there is the fact of either suffering themselves and or passing it on to their children. It can only be passed on through the female line . Men do not have this particular DNA.
A break through, a disaster, a travesty or progress?. The arguments split people into two camps.
The Mitochondrial DNA from a healthy donor (one without the disease) is transfered into the egg and the diseased DNA removed. No worse than normal IVF one would think.
Ah well, it is different, in that the new DNA will be transfered down through the generations. DNA from 'three parents' for all time.
Those for it say this will wipe out the disease as each new generation will be protected. Good news. The Scientists point out there are only37 genes involved as opposed to 20,00 genes from the parents.
Those against fear for unknown consequences later with the change in DNA permanent. Pointing out just a handful of damaged genes can cause problems. They fear the changing humanity as we know it.
I manipulated the gene pool in The Sefuty Chronicles, because I truly felt that once scientists can do something remarkable they always will do it. Mankind doesn't seem to able to stop.
But I am an author, it matters not if I change the DNA of humanity:) It is a story. No harm done. Back in 2012 during an A-Z challenge I wrote about transhumanisim and the scientist's wish to improve all out lives and wondered then, who holds the brilliance to order. I still wonder but I can see no-one is yet.
The power of the new on our imaginations too powerful, always has been.
The wish to have a child too powerful a force to say – don't do it adopt instead.
The increasing knowledge and intelligence? of mankind knows no master.
I shall miss the result of this latest experiment in our journey from the caves. Pity I would like to know how it goes.
In the meantime this week due to computer failure I have not blogged much but you can find the connection between ballroom, acapella and a town mayor, also my Monday Musing about art from old books and a quote from Chesterton.

The GOP needs to learn that not everything labeled a tax cut is a good thing, especially when proposed by a Democrat. That's the moral of the story with President Obama's flirtation with the GOP by offering a two-year extension of the so-called "Bush Tax Cuts."
Set to expire on January 1, 2011, letting the cuts expire amounts to a huge tax increase on an already hurting economy. Obama knows keeping them going is big on the GOP wish list, so he's offering the two-year extension in exchange for what amounts to a third Stimulus Bill.
And unfortunately, the GOP that took power in the house has no say in it; the current lame-duck Congress is still in power. It's the kind of move that could make Obama look good and the GOP look bad, because they ran on an agenda that sets them against the very sort of spending bill this Stimulus Tax Cut bill represents. It's stuffed to the gills with earmarks.
