Étienne Brûlé
Étienne Brûlé
Étienne Brûlé (ca. 1592-1633) was a French explorer in North America. He was the first European to voyage through the Great Lakes and the Susquehanna Valley.
Etienne Brûlé was born reputedly at Champigny-sur-Marne. When, in 1608, Samuel de Champlain went to the New World and founded a trading post at Quebec, Brûlé was probably a member of that expedition. In 1610 Brûlé voyaged west with a band of Algonquians to learn their language, a vital necessity in the fur trade. Where Brûlé traveled is not known, but when he returned to Quebec the following year, Champlain was well pleased with Brûlé's knowledge of the Indian country and the Algonquin language. Shortly afterward Brûlé returned to the west; and when Champlain, in 1615, assisted the Hurons in a campaign against the Onondagas near presentday Syracuse, N.Y., Brûlé volunteered to accompany a Huron delegation across the enemy's country to enlist the aid of the Susquehannas. The reinforcements the delegation brought arrived too late, for Champlain and the Hurons had been defeated and forced to retreat.
Brûlé spent the following year or more with the Susquehanna tribe and apparently traveled down the river bearing their name to Chesapeake Bay, the first European to traverse that part of present-day Pennsylvania. According to the account of his journey that Brûlé later gave Champlain, on the way back he was captured by the Senecas, tortured, and subsequently released and sent to Quebec to assist in concluding a peace treaty and establishing trade relations between the Iroquois and the French. In 1621 or 1622 Brûlé returned to the west and appears to have voyaged to Lake Superior. There is some evidence to indicate that he went as far as the site of present-day Duluth.
By this time Brûlé appears to have been more attuned to the permissive Indian way of life than to that of the more puritanical French. The missionaries complained that he was leading a scandalous life and making their efforts to impose Christian morals and religious beliefs on the Native Americans more difficult. In 1629 Brûlé threw in his lot with the English trader Sir David Kirke, who forced Champlain to surrender Quebec. In 1632 Canada was returned to France, but Brûlé was not brought to account. He had returned to the west, where in 1633 he was killed by the Hurons under obscure circumstances.
Brûlé left no record of his travels, and his activities can be gleaned only from passing references in the accounts of others. He spent most of his active life with Native Americans and was assimilated by them. According to the account of the missionary Gabriel Sagard, Brûlé was eaten by his Huron murderers; if indeed this is true, then no one could have been more completely assimilated than he was.
Further Reading
The most reliable account of Brûlé is Consul Willshire Butterfield, History of Brûlé's Discoveries and Explorations, 1610-1626 (1898). J. H. Cranston, Étienne Brûlé Immortal Scoundrel (1949), is romanticized. Brûlé figures in John Bartlet Brebner, The Explorers of North America, 1492-1806 (1933), and in Morris Bishop, Champlain: The Life of Fortitude (1948).

Brulé, Étienne
Étienne Brulé (ātyĕn´ brülā´), c.1592–1632, French explorer in North America. He arrived (1608) in the New World with Samuel de Champlain, who sent him (1610) into the wilderness to learn about Native Americans and the land. He lived with the Huron and accompanied (c.1612) a group of them to Georgian Bay of Lake Huron. In 1612 he guided Champlain to that lake, and on the return journey they were, so far as is known, the first Europeans to see Lake Ontario. Brulé was then sent to the headwaters of the Susquehanna River and followed it to Chesapeake Bay. On his way back he was captured by the Iroquois and tortured, but he escaped (1618). He lived with the Huron once again, making many explorations of which no definite record remains. He probably visited Lake Superior and thus saw all the Great Lakes except Lake Michigan, being the first European to do so. In 1629 he piloted the English vessels that captured Quebec and his old commander, Champlain. Then he retired to live an increasingly dissolute life among the Huron. He was killed in a quarrel.
See C. W. Butterfield, History of Brulé's Discoveries and Explorations, 1610–1626 (1898).

On 30 January 2013 the department announced a boost of £15 million to the Community Linking Places Fund giving a total fund of £30 million for sustainable travel projects across the country that will promote economic growth and cut carbon.
This Community Linking Places Fund is primarily for improvements to cycling and walking. In addition the fund must be used to support jobs, enhance access to employment and encourage greater use of more environmentally friendly transport.
On 7 February 2012 the department announced the original £15 million which has been split between Sustrans - the UK transport charity - and the Cycle Rail Working Group (CRWG) - the body which brings together representatives of the rail industry and the cycling sector. The second allocation will also be split between the 2 organisations.
Sustrans will receive a further £7.5 million (£15.5 million in total) for projects to enhance cycle routes across England. The remaining £7.5 million (£14.5 million in total) will be allocated through CRWG to improve integration between cycle and rail at stations.
Criteria for being awarded funding included meeting the above objectives along with attracting funding from other sources and complementing local initiatives which aim to support the economy. The Minister for Transport has approved all the schemes that will benefit from this new funding.

Our church put on an adorable tea party for the ladies and girls of the church. Arianna and I attended, wearing our hats. Afterwards, I headed out for some quick girl time with my cousin before Greg had guy time. The busyness of the day made me grateful for the hats we wear.
The morning started off with a small bang, the bang of a child at our door at all too early o'clock. Arianna lost her fifth tooth, a bottom left. She had to show us and alert us her mouth was bleeding. Sleeping in is a thing of the past as a parent, but that's one of the hats we wear.
Soon after, Evan came in while Greg and I were trying to fall back to sleep. He needed good breakfast, but settled for a pop tart because neither of us moved (and it was still crazy early for our first non soccer Saturday). Being a chef is one of the hats we wear.
Clearly, it was time to wake up and face the day. As I showered, Greg got the girls their breakfast and set up the man loft for a day of football. He got Arianna's hair brushed. Beautician is one of the hats we wear.
Arianna and I headed to the tea, late as we do. We had a very nice time and got to know the ladies at our table better. I told a few the story of our hats – they were my Grandma's – and I remembered her and my Great Grandma as both would have loved the event with the church, the hats, and the China. Remembering is a hat we wear.
After the tea, I got some girl time. It involved prep for a trip coming up this week which meant trying on gala worthy dresses. It was good to be with my cousin, even if shorter than we would have liked. Being family is another hat we wear.
I was left to shop for family stuff – exchanging too big snow boots and too small jeans, getting gas, banking, and dog food. Caring for the family is another hat we wear.
Trying to rush home to let Greg free, I got all.too upset about the time I took. Being a caring wife who tries to do too much is a hat I wear.
Finally, I ended the evening playing with the kids in the living room. I watched a dance show and tried to take big kid toys off Isla. Ava showed me how to clean up with the 20 or so baby wipes she had pulled from the package when I wasn't looking. We laughed and hugged lots before bedtime. Being the mama bear is another hat I wear.
The hats I wear are always changing and aren't the same as the hats Greg wears or you wear. They're all fancy and beautiful and important, though. For these hats we wear, I am thankful.

The Family-Run Companies that Rule the American Outdoors
A familiar theme emerged when we talked to eight of the people at the reins of the premier family-owned-and-run outdoor gear companies in America. "It all began as a hobby," says Hal Stephens, speaking of his father's interest in scuba diving, the ignition for a business that early on sold a single diving flashlight – and over 35 years became now a multi-million dollar tactical lighting company the younger Stephens now runs. "It wasn't overnight, of course. there were quite a few hard knocks on the way."
In fact, each of these companies, from a bootmaker whose wares last for decades, to a paddle-crafter working in high-tech carbon fiber, in some part spun out of a free-time pursuit. These families aren't making widgets to fill some blank space in the product universe; they're making the gear they'd want to use go to out and explore the world in the open air on Saturday and Sunday. We talked to each of these leaders about their company's heritage, and one product which evinces it best.

Chargers WR Crayton has wrist surgery
SAN DIEGO -- San Diego Chargers wide receiver Patrick Crayton had surgery on his left wrist on Wednesday, two days after he was hurt in a victory against the Denver Broncos.
The team didn't give details about the surgery, or when or if he'll return.
Coach Norv Turner met with the media before the surgery was announced. At that point, Turner said that Crayton could be out two to three weeks.
Crayton was hurt while falling into the end zone at the end of a 40-yard catch-and-run Monday night. He had three catches for 105 yards.
Crayton's injury comes just as Pro Bowl wide receiver Vincent Jackson is preparing to make his season debut when the Chargers (5-5) visit Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts (6-4) on Sunday night. Jackson was activated off the roster exempt list on Tuesday.
Also, star tight end Antonio Gates missed practice again. He said he'd like to try to practice this week to see if his torn right plantar fascia has healed enough to allow him to play Sunday night. Gates has missed two straight games -- sandwiched around the Chargers' bye week -- and said the injury is still painful.
"I've still got a long week. I think the biggest key for me at this point is to somehow try to practice to get a good idea about what I can do and what I can't do, what I can tolerate, because that's going to be determination, what's tolerable and what's not," Gates said. "Probably not a full practice, but just to see how I feel and see where it takes me.
"My biggest obstacle with this is just, can I deal with the pain?" he added. "Can I deal with the pain in the game, can I deal with the pain for four quarters? Obviously they have some things that can help eliminate the pain, but it's not going to take it away. I haven't really had that game atmosphere, the adrenaline pumping, you're sweating, you're moving around, blood flowing, it's circulating through the foot, and it kind of loosens the foot up. That's probably why I need to practice sometime this week to give myself a good idea, can I go in the game and sustain it through four quarters?"
Gates hasn't played since Oct. 31. He missed a victory at Houston on Nov. 7 and Monday night's game. The Chargers have won three straight to pull into a second-place tie with Oakland in the AFC West, one game behind Kansas City.
Jackson spoke with reporters for the first time since reporting on Oct. 29. When he hadn't signed his $3,268,000, one-year tender as a restricted free agent by June 15, the Chargers slashed it by $2.5 million. After missing training camp and the first seven games, Jackson reported in time to serve his three-game suspension on the roster exempt list -- he was placed there in a hardball move by general manager A.J. Smith -- and then play the final six games to accrue a season toward unrestricted free agency.
Asked if he had any regrets, Jackson said: "Absolutely not."
Otherwise, he wouldn't talk about his decision to sit out.
"I'm here now. I'm not looking back," he said. "I'm excited about what this season can become. This team is on an upward swing right now, got a lot of momentum. We're trying to get guys healthy, but we make no excuses. We're going to go out there and we're going to fight each and every game, and I expect us to do very well."
Jackson said he's fresh and ready to go.
"I've always taken care of my body. I'm always out here working hard throughout the season. There's a lot of things you've got to do on and off the field to be fresh late in the year. Some of these young guys, a lot of young guys, rookies, you gotta learn that the first couple of years in the league."
He also spoke highly of quarterback Philip Rivers, who hasn't flinched even though some of his favorite receivers have been hurt. Rivers leads the NFL with 3,177 yards and 23 touchdowns.
"He's made do with whoever's stepped up," Jackson said. "Our coaches do a great job with these young receivers, getting 'em coached up out here, making sure they're fundamentally sound, running good routes. It makes Philip's job a lot easier. But again, you can't take it away from that guy. I mean, what he's done with running backs, hitting 14-15 different receivers this year. He's one of the top players in the league, without a doubt."
Among the other Chargers who didn't practice were wide receiver Malcom Floyd (hamstring), running back Ryan Mathews (ankle), tight end Randy McMichael (hamstring) and right guard Louis Vasquez (neck).neck

McIlroy back into contention for FedEx Cup after poor start
Rory McIlroy has work to do if he wants to win the FedEx Cup title and £7.5m payday.
Dustin Johnson is leading the charge at the Tour Championship on seven under par, one shot clear of fellow American Kevin Chappell.
McIlroy is five shots adrift of Johnson on two under par.
He made a poor start with four bogeys and one birdie in the first eight holes, but the four-time major winner responded with birdies on the 10th and 12th to remain in contention for a third win of the season.
The Holywood ace, however, needs to produce some magical golf over the weekend.
McIlroy can only claim the big money prize if he wins the tournment and Johnson finishes outside the top two.
World number one Jason Day was forced to withdraw through injury.
Day pulled out of the BMW Championship after eight holes of the final round a fortnight ago and lasted only eight holes of his second round in Atlanta before withdrawing with an ongoing back injury.
Meanwhile, Jonathan Caldwell finally landed his first HotelPlanner.com PGA EuroPro Tour title, taking home the Clipper Logistics Championship at Moor Allerton with three birdies in his last four holes.
Caldwell (Clandeyboye; 70, 64, 69) has finished inside the top five on eight occasions in five years on the tour, but beat Kevin Harper (East Devon Golf Club; 69, 69, 66) holing a nervy short putt for the title in Leeds.
It lifts him inside the Race To Desert Springs top five, a position which is rewarded with a 2017 Challenge Tour card for those in that position at the end of the season.
Curtis Griffiths (Wentworth; 68, 70, 68) consolidated his position in second on the tour rankings with a third-place finish on seven under par.
"It feels great," said Caldwell, who takes home £10,000 along with a brand new Motocaddy S1 Lithium trolley, Bushnell Tour X Range Finder and Bolle Sunglasses.
"It has been a long time coming after a few near misses, so it feels special."
Colm Moriarty leads the way on six under par after two rounds of the 106th Irish PGA Championship at Moyvalley Hotel and Golf Resort.
With gusting winds making play difficult, particularly for the afternoon starters, Moriarty's four under par 68 gave him a one shot lead over Damien McGrane, Eamonn Brady (Clontarf GC) and Simon Thornton.
The lowest score of the day came McGrane who prospered in the calmer early morning conditions, carding a six under par 66.
"I played alright yesterday [Thursday] but I couldn't really get going with the birdies," said McGrane who carded an opening round 73.
"One over was not a disaster. I'm pleased to bounce back today and finish the day on five under.
"The wind was getting very strong as we were finishing.
"I hit a seven iron from 122 yards into the 18th green," he added.

A new report has been put forward by the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges which aims to help tackle the obesity crisis in the UK.
The UK is one of the fattest nations in the world, with a quarter of adults now classed as obese and a third of children leaving primary school overweight. Obesity is estimated to cost the NHS £5.1bn a year.
This figure is set only to increase, and by 2050 it is predicted that 60% of men, 50% of women and 25% of children will be obese.
The report from the Academy of Medial Royal Colleges, called Measuring Up, criticises the present and previous governments for ineffective attempts to tackle the obesity problem.
It put forward a list of recommendations to help break the cycle of "generation after generation falling victim to obesity-related illnesses and death." These include:
Professor Terence Stephenson, the chair of the Academy which represents nearly every doctor in the UK, drew parallels with the campaign against smoking. He said:
"If we didn't have things like this we wouldn't have speed limits that save lives, we wouldn't have drink-driving limits that save lives, there's a host of things that society and state does to help us live long, healthy fulfilling lives and we're just suggesting something similar."
However, the Food and Drink Federation, which represents produce manufacturers, says the report adds little to the current debate.
Many private medical insurance policies offer discounted gym memberships to encourage their customers to live a healthy lifestyle.
Health Insurance quotes from only £15 per month!
Very helpful and polite and always try their best to obtain the best quotes. Have been using them for the last 3 years and will continue to use them in the future.
A great service from the initial call, to finalising the agreement. I would highly recommend to my family and friends.
Proactive, efficient, and offered me insurance I need. I would say half price I would end up paying if I did it by myself. Many thanks.
Excellent service. Explained everything in detail and really helped to find the right insurance best suited to my needs - which wasn't necessarily the most expensive.
Good value and the advisor was very helpful and recommended the best policy for my grandson. I would definitely use this service again and recommend to others.
We were contacted in good time to make a knowledgable choice. We were given plenty of options with lots of information to enable us to make the right choice.
The service I received was excellent, the staff member was very efficient and knowledgable. She went out of her way to get the best policy for me.
Great service. I really appreciated the help provided by Active Quote to arrange health insurance. The agent was very informative and proactive. Many thanks!
I received excellent care and attention from the first phone call till the last. Friendly, efficient and patient.
Staff are very helpful, friendly and polite. They call back when they say they will and keep you up to date with progress. Pleasure to deal with.

Amethyst and Peridot Nugget Tree of Life Necklace
A cut-out tree this time - something a bit different.
Recipient :
* Required fields
or Cancel
This tree pendant has definitely a modernistic look with the cut-out tree and the antiqued but shiny silver surroundings.
The tree pendant was then attached to a large, beautifully faceted Amethyst nugget and topped by a smaller Peridot bead and silver bead caps.
The pendant is threaded onto a 2.4mm ball chain measuring 50cm in length and closing with a typical ball chain connector.
All metal is silver tone.
Both gemstones are natural, however, I do believe that the Peridot has been enhanced a bit in colour which does match the strong purple of the Amethyst very nicely though.
The tree charm measures 3cm in diameter, total length of the pendant is 7cm.
Amethyst is the birthstone for February and peridot for August. If you would like to have a similar necklace made with different birthstones, please contact me.

Sean Khan
In the early 2000's Sean Khan sent a demo to Sony Records. The album was turned down, but Mike Slocombe from Goya records heard the album and asked Sean to form a band. The band became known as SK radicals and the first single 'Reachin 4 da Farside' became an underground club hit. Sean teamed up with Bugz in the Attic to produce the first SK radicals album, 'When Will We Belong'. The success of this record enabled Sean to build his own studio, in which he produced the second SK radicals record, 'Urban Eclectiks'. With the SK Radicals Sean has collaborated with a number of notable musicians and groups such as Bugz in the Attic, Mark de Clive Lowe, Kaidi Tathum, Daz I Que, Recloose, Derrick McIntyre (Roy Ayres, Incognito).
'Slow Burner', Sean's debut solo album was release in 2011 and featured Tim Lapthorn, Mike Edmonds, Laurie Lowe, Genevieve Grant and Susan Allotey. The album represents Sean's journey back to one of his main loves, Jazz improvisation. His playing pays homage to Coltrane, Henderson, Parker and Shorter and there is also a vocal tribute to Stevie Wonder. 'What is Jazz?' is a political statement delivered by spoken word artist Genevieve Grant from the San Francisco spoken Word scene, in which she recites an essay about the past present and future of jazz. The group sound gives a nod to the contemporary (hip hop, drum n bass) but also to the hard swing of New York and the free sound of Europe.
'Muriel' Sean's sophmore album released in 2015, jazz greats 'Trane, Jaco, Herbie and Gil', are paid tribute to, as is Goya music, the label Sean attributes to kick-starting his recording career, as well as being a key facilitator of the broken beat movement as a whole. These references reflect Sean's unique musical standpoint: his axis of influence pivots between classic, free and Latin jazz and a specific sense of rhythm and experimentation drawn from his immersion in the broken beat scene. This combination of musical approaches, coupled with Sean's belief in a concept of 'instinct over intellect' (while retaining an appreciation of the philosophy behind the music) lays the foundation for the album's stirring innovation. The masterful compositions on Muriel are teeming with technical prowess and drenched in soul with the help of some world-renowned vocalists including father of British Neo-Soul Omar, Brazilian musical icon Sabrina Malheiros and Heidi Vogel of the Cinematic Orchestra. The album is dedicated to the driving force behind Khan's musical education, his mother Muriel McGinley.
In May 2016 Sean flew out to Brazil to record with the legendary multi-instrumentalist Hermeto Pascoal alongside producer Joe Davis. The album is set for a 2017 release.

I have several tables with only create/read/update/delete functions needed, Hibernate has an ability to quickly auto-gen this.
It seems like Portlet factory would be able to do something like this too, I just hate to have to write this code for 50 tables, if the tool can auto-generate it for me.
If not, then perhaps somebody can give me a few best practices, in terms of creating the data services.
Thanks in advance

This question on the proper height for a Kettlebell Swing was posted on my Facebook wall today. Its a questions that comes up often online and at the Agatsu gym in Montreal. I address it at length during my Kettlebell Instructor Certification seminars and thought rather than posting a quick Facebook response I should share my thoughts once and for all in this blog.
The "Overhead Kettlebell Swing" sometimes called the "American Swing" is as far as I know only practiced by one group around the world. It has been adopted by Crossfitters to suit their needs during competition. For every swing they need a way to judge a rep or a no count. By swinging the Kettlebell overhead the judge can stand to the side of the competitor and count a rep if the arms are up and back enough to expose the ears. Having a standard for competition makes total sense and of course is needed. There are however several untended consequences to this particular standard that they have adopted and each may make you re-think the overhead swing.
Before I can address the idea of which swing I prefer everyone should understand that your goals should dictate how you train. If you want to become a better soccer player well maybe spending time doing preacher curls isn't a great idea. On the contrary if you are interested in becoming a champion bodybuilder then those same preacher curls will be very "functional" for your goals. If someone has dreams of going to the Crossfit Games then ignore everything I am about to say and grip it and rip it overhead. If however your training goals include any of the following, please read on: learning efficient movement patters, developing power from the ground up, developing a high level of skill in Kettlebell lifting, using Kettlebells to supplement your other training, lifting safely and effectively.
Oh! You are still here…how nice for both of us. Please read on.
Whats the purpose of a Kettlebell swing?
Kettlebell Swings are an assistance exercise. They help teach the movement pattern basics for the Clean and the Snatch. They help educate us on how to connect lower and upper body and if performed in a high tension manner they are excellent for loading the posterior chain. They are not as far as I know contested in any sporting event other than Crossfit. I am not sure why Crossfit uses the Swing for competition, its a bit like using the Snatch Pull from Olympic Weightlifting for competitions. Its a supplemental and not something I would choose for a competition lift. Crossfitter's would be better off using the Kettlebell Snatch. Ideally suited for volume they could move a sub-maximal weight fast and for high reps. Its easy to clearly rule a rep and no count following the standards of Kettlebell Sport. That technique is also very efficient for moving a Kettlebell to an overhead position something the Overhead Swing is not. (More on this in a second)
Swings, are building blocks. We use them to learn the mechanics for more complex movements and therefor how we perform these building blocks is very important. The choices we make at the early stages of any practice will dictate how far we will go in any endeavor. Remember that everything you do is practice. That's right, everything you do is practice. All those reps you perform in your workouts are teaching your body how to move. This is a VERY important lesson that is often overlooked by people racing to what they think is the top. Consider how a typical Olympic weightlifter trains. They build up to a max, de-load and then end with some great technical reps on a lighter weight. If on the way to their max they failed, their coach will evaluate them and question;did they fail because of poor mechanics, tired, scared, etc and should they do another or go down in weight? No good coach lets their lifter complete 10 or 20 bad reps at a weight they can't manage because what they are doing is practicing how to get it wrong. How does this relate to the Overhead Swing. Hang on, this is where it gets technical.
Power from the Top Down
When we swing a Kettlebell we want to generate power from the ground up. This is one of the great things about Kettlebell training. It closely resembles other forms of training that teach us this very important skill of using our entire body to overcome the resistance of the weight. Power from the ground up is taught in martial arts, gymnastics, weight lifting and just about every movement discipline you can think of. Amateurs move things from the top down, not skilled athletes. To generate power from the ground up with a Kettlebell we pull the weight into the back swing and as we push into the ground we extend our torso and hips. One of the key goals is to keep contact between the arms and the body as long as possible so the movement of the body will transfer to the weight and move it without us having to rely on pulling with our arms. Read that last part again and then go look at some Youtube videos of people performing the Overhead Swing. Crossfitters love to film themselves working out, its a kind of workout porn. These videos are easy to find and I seriously suggest a field trip to Youtube. Have a look and search for ones where guys and girls are lifting heavy bells. Go on, I 'll wait here……….maybe make a coffee while I wait…. swing a Kettlebell.
…. Ok you are back. Great…. did you find workout porn? Hmmm yeah maybe a bad thing to type into Google. Ok I assume you found some clips. What did you see? Most likely some ape like swings with bent arms pull the bells overhead. Clearly using the shoulders and traps to get the weight up. That's right, you saw power from the top down. Everything else in Crossfit tries to teach power from the ground up, but in this case this approach to a classical Kettlebell exercise has been modified and the result is often power from the top down. I say "often" because there are some people who perform a very nice version of the Overhead Swing. Their arms are straight, their back well protected but as someone who has taught in boxes around the world I can tell you that they are a minority. One of my students Mike Latch owns Valley Crossfit and incredible gym in the US and his people can swing bells any you want them to. They however are the only example I can think of and even the ones who swing overhead well still suffer the following mechanical problem.
Pre-mature Seperation
That's right, no one likes to talk about it and its a bit embarrassing but it happens. Pre-mature separation is when we swing the bell in a manner that has our arms leaving our bodies before the acceleration pull. The acceleration pull is the moment where we begin to pull the Kettlebell into a Clean or a Snatch. If you pull to early you are leaking power and not using your body efficiently to move the weight. Efficiency is the name of the game no matter what game you are playing. The more efficient you are the more complex your movements can become. As you add greater complexity you add greater challenges and by extension greater rewards and growth. Why settle for less?
Ok so far we have looked at the following issues with the Overhead Swing: Power from the Top Down and Pre-mature Seperation. The next thing on our list should be typical spinal wave created by the movement.
High Pull Gone Ugly
Most of the Overhead Swings I see these days are basically ugly high pulls. People grab the bells and perform something close to a high pull and then push overhead. This is typically done with an odd and often injury causing wave motion with their backs. When Kettlebell Swings are done to shoulder height (or lower to the acceleration pull in the case of One Arm Swings as prep for Snatches) the mechanics are incredibly safe for our backs. With high tension swings we set up as though we are lifting a maximal load but really its quite sub-maximal and as such the risk of injury is extremely low. For those who adopt the overhead position and in particular people who are new to fitness they tend to move their bodies in a "soft serve" (think ice cream)motion trying to find some way to get the weight overhead. Add into this equation working out for time and loads exceeding their capacity and well you make chiropractors and massage therapists around the world very happy and rich.
What started out as a quick Facebook response has become quite a long blog so I'll end here. I could go on about why I believe people should keep their Kettlebell Swings to shoulder height or below but I think enough critical stuff was covered that should give you food for thought.
If I was going to compete at the Crossfit Games what would I do? Swing overhead with the rest of them because that's what the sport demands. I am not a Crossfit competitor so my training goals are not the same as someone who is. Many of my students compete in Crossfit and some are better at dealing with the technical differences than others. What's important to me is that all of them understand and consider the ramifications of the choices they make in their training. Awareness is key. We need to look at how we are moving, how we can improve and what steps we can take to get us to our goals. If you want to know which swing is best for you, ask yourself the following:

There are 3 metabolic pathways that provide energy for all our bodies' actions.
The first pathway is the Phosphagen Pathway. This pathway dominates our highest powered activities and last for the shortest period of time. Think 100% power output piquing at around :10. What kinds of things in CrossFit do we do that sound like that? How about 1RM deadlift, 100m sprint, 1RM snatch, etc.
The second pathway is the Glycolytic Pathway. This pathway dominates moderate powered activities that last up to several minutes. Our power output drops to around 80% thus allowing us to work longer. Most of our CrossFit WODs fall into this range, Fran, Grace, 8-12 minute AMRAPS, etc.
The third pathway is the Oxidative Pathway. This pathway dominates low powered activities that last in excess of several minutes. Now our power output is around 40%, this let's us carry one for much longer periods of time. WODs in excess of 20 minutes, hero WODs, 5K run or row, all of these activities carry on in our Oxidative Pathway.
The Oxidative pathway is an aerobic pathway, meaning it requires oxygen to produce our energy. Aerobic training has several bonuses, obviously the longer we can work the greater our cardiovascular/ respiratory endurance as well as our stamina. There will be a decrease in body fat but on the down side there is also a decrease in muscle mass. Aerobic training does very little to improve our strength, power, or speed.
The Phosphagen and Glycolytic Pathways are anaerobic, meaning they do not require oxygen. Anaerobic training also improves cardiovascular/ respiratory endurance, in fact more so then aerobic training. Anaerobic training also decreases body fat, however this type of training will increase muscle mass as well as improve our strength, speed, and power. The biggest bonus of anaerobic training is it's ability to improve our aerobic capacity, this does not happen in the reverse. What I mean is we do not need to train for running a 5K by running a ton of 5Ks, we can lift heavy and bust our butt through a 5 minute WOD and this work will help in our capacity to run a 5K.
So why am I telling you all this? As I said earlier, in CrossFit we spend the majority of our time working in the Glycolytic Pathway, we do this because we find the most benefit across the board. However we do not ignore the other pathways, we do not forego the heavy lifting days or the longer endurance days because they too have their benefits. Working all three pathways makes for the most well rounded athlete and that my friends is the name of our game, we master nothing and we work well at everything.
Moral of the story: STOP CHERRY PICKING!! ALL of it makes you stronger.

text: Hi, I just picked up our 'vouchures' from Sears Travel for the 7 day hopper passes. It's annual special ~ buy one, get the companion pass 1/2 price. So I bought 2 adults and one child, the baby is FREE (a nice Disney touch, something for FREE). I knew I would get the vouchures instead of the actual tickets, but I have a question. On the vouchure it says we need photo ID. That's fine for dh and I, we have photo ID, but dd is 7 years old! She doesn't have ANY photo ID. I have her OHIP card, birth cert, hospital cards, immunization card, but NO PHOTO CARD! Should this be a problem? I already called Sears Travel with other questions. I thought I would ask you all before harrassing them again LOL! THANKS! 10 more days!

My first-time naked experience was when I had turned 23 and merely moved to Monterey, CA for a brand new job. I was researching the area prior to starting my job in a couple of weeks, and also the previous Saturday had detected a nude beach along the Big Sur Coast and chose to go there the next week.
I arrived quite early in the morning, made the half mile trek down to the nude section and found a good spot about 20 yards down the beach from an old couple and also a young gentleman who were already down there. I was VERY nervous and decided I'd take it step by step. In the meantime, more people started to populate the beach and shortly there was a gentleman about my age only fifteen feet away from me laying out nude reading a book.
Time passed and one hour at the shore and I still couldn't get up the nerve. Finally the guy near me looks over at me, nods "hello" then asks me if I'd enjoy a cold beer. I accepted, and to my surprise he got up and dragged his towel and all his property right next to me, reached in his cooler, snatched a couple beers then introduced himself and handed me a beer. Among the first things he said was "This is your first time at a nude beach, isn't it?" I said yes and he immediately said there was no need to worry- no one was going to stare at me or do anything if I took off my shirt and boxers.
So, VERY furtively away came my boxers but my top stayed on. He laughed and said "Now that wasn't so bad, was it?" I laughed and we continued to discuss. Despite the fact that the boxers were now away, I was sitting up with my knees pulled tightly to my chest, arms wrapped around my legs. Well, "it" occurred almost immediately and I promptly rolled over on my belly, only to hear a little laugh and "Do Not worry- occurred to me my first time also" from my new-found friend.
Within a couple hours I was completely comfortable and was tossing around a frisbee, walking up and down the beach, and even got invited into a game of Scrabble by a nearby couple. Regrettably, the place where I worked in CA went out of business and I moved back to Michigan where nude beaches are non existent and anti-nudity laws are rigorously enforced on public lands. I really wish there was a landed, private nude beach on Lake Michigan! I 'd be there every weekend!

Grand Haven, Michigan
My wife of 29 years died of cancer. She was raised strict Southern Baptist, so occasionally being nude at home was O.K., but she would have never considered social nudity.
Singles clubs were uncomfortable, so I began taking short weekend excursions to get out of the home.
Any of these excursions found me near Panama City, Florida, about four hours from home. I had seen the Baybares website, so out of interest I called and asked if a single man would be admitted. When the nice sounding lady on the phone welcomed me, I asked directions. The nerves grew as I discovered and proceeded along the sandy drive to the club. I almost turned around three times, but there clearly was no place to turn without becoming stuck in the sand. Then I came to the cable across the road that indicated the clubhouse entry where I was met by a cordial guy wearing a towel around his waist. He let me in, showed me where to park and asked me to sign in at the clubhouse.
The nervousness escalated exponentially as I parked and started the walk to the clubhouse. There, by the pool was a amazing woman sunning completely bare. She flashed me a delightful smile, presented herself as Gloria and started to chat with http://xoxet.com . I couldn't believe how relaxed she was, even though she was totally naked. Then I continued to sign in, pay my reasons fees, and be given a simple synopsis of the rules and etiquette of the club.
After taking a huge breath, I took off the last of my clothes. They treated me like a long lost cousin who had returned home.
It was a wonderful weekend, plus it provided just the familiarity with friendly people which I wanted so urgently at that point of my own life. Gloria will never know what a great gift her smile and friendly conversation was to a lonely stranger. It gave me the courage to return to my car, undress, and start the next phase of my own life as a nudist among some of the friendliest, most welcoming people on earth.
I remarried a year after and my new wife came to realize how important societal nudity was to me. After a year of marriage she graciously chose to participate as well. She appreciates our excursions to Cypress Cove when we can get away a few times annually.
My only sorrow is that I waited so long to find the wonderful experience of social nudism and how friendly folks are at nudist clubs.

Nude at the seashore
It was early and when I arrived, several people were already enjoying their nakedness. I looked around and slipped off my top & short pants and in an instant, standing bare and enjoying it. Nobody stared or gawked and for the next three hours I appreciated the freedom of no clothes. Perhaps next time, I will have a guest join me

The single thing that irritated me
My first nudist experience was when my partner and I went with friends to Cypress Cove in Florida. Having lived in Fla many years, I was use to miniature swim wear and extreme sun. So the transition to no clothing and intense sun was easy. That's until I reached for my pocket knife in my pocket. I used to not have one! Pocket that's. Now without both my pockets and knife I was in a quandary.
Once I had overcome my lack of http://nudists-young.org , the friendliness, ease, independence, and openness at the resort made the weekend very gratifying. We've been back several times and I'm looking forward to our next trip there next week.

Real Freedom
Our first encounter being socially naked was in 1998. We had as often as possible been nude privately at home for a long time since the day we were wed but we'd no notion what social nudism was about until we detected it online. Being born again believers in God, we still felt that nudism proved to be a right, great, and healthy lifestyle.
After driving through the gate one Saturday morning in June, the sight of so many naked people was at first phantasmagoric. We checked in at the office, and were introduced to a naked host couple who would give us a tour of the property. We undressed and toured the grounds. Individuals were swimming, playing tennis, grilling and just relaxing as at any resort in a park-like setting. There was an indoor and an outdoor pool, a hot tub, a hiking trail, snack bar, gift shop, etc.
It absolutely was our first time swimming nude, and we've never worn a swimsuit since that day. As the male half of this couple I can declare that there clearly was no humiliation with an erection that I had prior concerns about. You will always have a towel as a back-up just in case. We have never seen that become an issue for anybody.
We now see White Tail Resort in Ivor, VA consistently, as it's our favorite nudist resort. The folks are extremely friendly there. White Tail is a family oriented resort attended by folks of all ages. To be bare all weekend, and to awaken and walk outside bare in the morning and feel sunlight and the atmosphere all over your naked body is pure ecstasy. We currently vacation at nudist resorts virtually entirely.
Our other favored nudist resorts comprise Cedar Creek, Serendipity Park, Cypress Cove, and Lake Como. All these resorts are family oriented resorts and are recorded on the AANR website. We all know that we are safer at a nudist resort than at a hotel. The easiness at a nudist resort is beyond any other we have ever experienced. The practice of social nudism has been a lifesaver as a result of pressure relief we appreciate while naked.
One day naked around other people enjoying life in this wholesome environment is similar to a week in a luxury clothed resort. For those who haven't experienced social nudism then do not deny yourself this experience. Nudism is a genuine retreat from the uptight and pretentious fabric society we live in.
We continue publishing stories shared by our subscribers that are female – young naturist girls

When we see individuals of all ages playing sports, having a meal together or just unwinding nude among friends, our only regret is that we didn't start this wonderful lifestyle earlier.

Rummenigge cools Robben row
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has claimed a "misunderstanding" with Holland following Arjen Robben's latest injury.
Last Updated: 09/10/11 8:30pm
Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has claimed that a "misunderstanding" prompted Bert van Marwijk's attack on the club over Arjen Robben's latest injury.
Van Marwijk launched a tirade against the Bundesliga outfit after Holland's Euro 2012 qualifying win over Moldova in Rotterdam on Friday.
Robben, who had been sidelined earlier this season, met up with the Oranje squad ahead of that match, but pulled out earlier this week and underwent an operation on his pubic bone on Friday.
The surgery was carried out under the supervision of Bayern's club doctor, Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt, who claimed that Robben's injury "had developed over the last few days" - while he had been on national team duty.
But Van Marwijk told reporters at a press conference that the Oranje were not to blame.
"I have had enough of Bayern. I am incensed by them," he said.
"They want to blame Arjen's inguinal hernia on us rather than being grateful that we put him through a thorough examination."
Rummenigge has responded in a statement on Bayern's official website, saying: "Bert van Marwijk clearly must have misunderstood something. Bayern have neither made accusations against him nor the Holland national team.
"On the contrary. We find it very accommodating that the Dutch have in this situation sent Arjen back to Munich and therefore have given him the opportunity to recover from the injury as quickly as possible.
"We hope that Arjen Robben can train and play again as soon as possible."
Van Marwijk could not hide his frustration with Bayern, as he insisted that it was in fact the Dutch team doctors who had discovered the true source of Robben's recent ailments after they put the forward through tests over the weekend.
"When Arjen reported for national team duty, he told me that he was not really fit," Van Marwijk said.
"He told us that he had had to warm-up for an hour sometimes with pain at Bayern."
Dutch team doctor Gert-Jan Goudswaart performed a thorough examination on the 27-year-old and, according to Marwijk, he "doubted" Bayern's diagnosis.
Bayern had put the injury down to a pubic bone inflammation.
Very cautious
"We are very cautious with Robben and that is why our doctor intentionally requested a further examination with a very well known radiologist," added Van Marwijk.
"It was therefore no surprise when the inguinal hernia was discovered.
"Goudswaart was in constant contact with Muller-Wohlfahrt."
A previous dispute between Bayern and the Dutch Football Association about Robben's treatment at the World Cup ended in an agreement that a friendly match would be staged between the two sides, with Bayern keeping all proceeds as a form of compensation for the injury.
However, Van Marwijk has no intention of leading his side out at the Allianz Arena.
"I have had enough of them," he said. "All of a sudden they blame us and it makes me crazy - it's almost anti-social.
"I don't think it is normal. I am going to have to sleep on it. Who knows? Maybe we will play that friendly match, but I really don't want to now."

Are there any animal behaviorists out there? Ones who might have insights into a street cat's motives? Because I need some answers.
For a week straight (over a week by now) my favorite street cat has been up on a roof. Her kittens and other cats roam around below while she stays on the roof. It's over a garage that is attached to a two story house, so the garage roof is a great deal lower than the house's roof. I see her every afternoon, around sunset or just past, and she sits on the ridgepole meowing out for the whole neighborhood to hear. When she sees me her meows become louder, and although she walks down close to the edge of the roof, as if she wants to jump down from it onto a high wall that abuts it, she doesn't. She rubs the edges of the terra cotta tiles with her whiskers, as if to mark them, and then walks back up to sit along the ridgepole, or over onto the other side, constantly meowing.
At first I was nervous that she was stuck up there. But now? Her babies are all wandering around down below, gathering up the food that passersby feed them, and she's up there meowing away and not coming down. I don't know what would make her be staying up there. Do you have any ideas? A cat's gotta eat and this is the cat who used to follow me everywhere for a handout. Now she's up on a roof, has been up there for a week, and seems perfectly happy but isn't bothering to come down for food.
What do you think is going on?

Walmart Black Friday 2010 Ads
November 15, 2010 by staff
Walmart Black Friday 2010 Ads, Wal-Mart is the last major retailers to launch their 2010 Black Friday ad has leaked on the internet, before these sites were sent takedown notices. This seems to be a regular occurrence with Wal-Mart each year, and who like to keep consumers guessing.
One of the best selling products to Wal-Mart last year were the Pet Zhu Zhu, asked us what their best-selling toys this year? We can see going the retail giant's rage these little toys will be popular again this Christmas and more than Black Friday.
New Pets Zhu Zhu include Rock Star, The Wild Bunch, Ninja Warrior Kung Zhu and Original Hamster. As always, Barbie will also be popular this year, and Walmart selling version of the iconic doll at the moment are totally hair and mermaid fairy doll.
Comply with the dolls, fashion doll Liv could be very popular this year, like Toy Story 3 in goods, thanks to the film earlier this year. These are just some of the toys that I think will be very popular in the 2010 Walmart Black Friday sale.
What toys do you think will do well this year?
Please feel free to send if you have any questions regarding this post , you can contact on

Hello -
With WebVitamins, I see a great commission at 12%, and very good EPC, but it seems that the product links from the datafeed do not go to the product detail page on the WebVitamins site, but rather are redirected to the homepage.
What is the deal with that? I am promoting them on my site (which is new and not indexed in the SE's yet), and just realized that all product links go to the homepage instead of the product detail page.
Does anyone else promote them and know if this will ever be fixed?

Hello -
Yeah, I use E-Vitamins too. I like to have my lines in multiple ponds!
I chose Web Vitamins because I heard good things from Leader, and there EPC on CJ looks great...but the damn links don't go to the individual product pages!
If anyone has any other experiences/ideas or the contact info for the AM. I have a hard time believing their EPC is up so high when the damn links don't go to the proper product page.
What the hell here!

Topic: Christian Tout? [05/09/2016]
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. 1 Corinthians 9:27. Read: 1 Cor 9:24-16
In most of our bus/stops we have touts whose major work is to help the driver call passengers. They publicize the destination of the buses, persuade others to go with the bus, yet, they are left behind by the bus and the passengers they persuaded. They help others to get to their destination, yet, they remain on a spot.
Invariably, there're many Christian touts who know about God and the impending judgment, they're sign post to others to get to God's Kingdom, yet, they themselves are not going there. They publicise God's Kingdom, they tell the world to repent of their sins, yet, they are slaves to sin. They appear Holy, but inside, they're servants of unrighteousness doing the bidding of their master - Satan. In this regard, Jesus said, not everyone that will call Me Lord, Lord would enter My Kingdom simply "they did their service in iniquity". Paul said in the above scripture, "When I have preached to others, I myself should not be a castaway".
* Father, I don't want to be a Christian tout that will point others to your Kingdom, yet miss it. Help me not to miss it in Jesus Name
