When I ask clients to incorporate just a bit more exercise into their day, I often hear one of these: "I don't have time to do that" or "Are you kidding me? I can hardly get out of the door on time" or, "get up 20 minutes earlier to walk? are you nuts"? "I'm to busy to do that". "It's too cold and rainy"...
Ok so you get my point
The bigger picture here is that until a health habit is formed, it can sound overwhelming. Once the benefit of just a 20 minute walk kicks in, it's much for doable. I think writing out a plan everyday and looking at how many minutes are wasted in a day is eye opening.
I also think that most people will realize that the world won't end because they have taken a 20 minute walk, and that it truly is ok to step outside and do something everyday to increase longevity.
I hate having my teeth worked on, I even cringe when I have to sit for a cleaning.
Mind you I have great teeth, I take really good care of them, I don't like it but I do it.
So, yesterday as I was walking up to my dentist's door, I noticed that I was really tense, I was really dreading the upcoming hour. Then I had an Oprah moment, I realized that this must be how my clients feel when they know I'm coming!
I love to workout (well...I have to workout) granted there are days when I have to really convince myself to get moving, but really I do love to exercise, actually I love the RESULTS from my daily exercise.
So, back to the dentist. In order to preserve my teeth ( albiet my 84 yr old dad has all of his), I must do regular maintanence. DUH.
It's like working out. It takes a while to "get it" but once you do, you do.
I constantly hear "I really didn't want to do this today but am so glad I did" or, "I really DID NOT want to come to bootcamp tonight but am feeling so much better now"..
Exercise is the same as anything else.
Gotta do it.
For most people making exercise a top of the list priority is not realistic. The thought of actually "having to workout" every day (even for 30 minutes) seems daunting. I have written about this in a previous blog and have posted a blog on Jills List about "not having time".
Today I had an Oprah ahah moment. I realized it's not that people don't have time to exercise, they haven't had time to reap the benefits that exercise provides. Of course, it's so logical (as I hit my head on the wall), yes, that's what it is, they just haven't gotten to the wonders of exercise.
Is it because life has become so chaotic and complicated ~Is it because the strangeness of time doesn't allow us to do one more thing? or is it because of how we see time, how we see our days, how we plan our days, how we waste so many moments during our day that we simply can't add exercise to it. Or is it that as comfort creatures we don't want to "rock the boat", we don't want to join a gym or a walking group or take a fitness class, we just don't have time
But we do have time, all of us have the same amount of hours in a day. Why do some choose to workout/exercise daily, why do others decide three times a week is suffice, why do some take Sundays off!. why do others decide that going to the dentist and grocery shopping is more important than a workout?
Why can't exercise be the main goal, the main thing in our day (preferably in the morning), and then enjoy how everything else falls into place
There is time to exercise: it just needs to be found.
I love that, "I go to the gym"
What does that mean?
Do you go to the gym and talk with your friends? Do you go to the gym and walk on a treadmil?
Do you go to the gym and not have any idea what to do?
Do you spend more time getting to the gym than exercising at the gym?
Do you go to the gym and get bored?
Do you go to the gym and sit on the weight bench?
This is why so many people are surprised when they do our bootcamp or personal training.
Most people really do not know how to workout, they don't know what it takes to get fit
I'm not blaming them, I'm making a clear observation. Time and time again I hear, "But I thought I was kind of fit cause I go to the gym".
Going to a gym is great, what you do at the gym is another story!
It may sound cliche', The I Can Do attitude but I believe it.
My clients prove it to me over and over again. As a Health Coach I have seen all of my clients achieve thier goals, yes, you read that right, 100% of my Health Coaching clients have succeeded.
Now what about my bootcampers...well, I have thought long and hard about that. Physical exercise, the act of actually doing something that requires physical work is actually harder than setting wellness goals. I think the reason is because humans will only work so hard then they stop.
Bootcamp is different than any other type of exercise. It's not a program that "coddles", it's not a program that "gives in" , instead it's a workout that make you dig deep, it makes you challenge yourself in ways you have never had to look at. It makes you stronger or weaker, which ever one you choose. That's the point, it's up to you to decide how much you want to get out of it.
So what about a dog tag? Why does that motivate? For 3 years we have had bootcamp without the "incentive" of a "prize". We finally decided to add dog tags as a reward for perfect attendance and guess what? attendance was amazing. For a dog tag? No, for the sense of achievement ,for acknowledgement, for being at every bootcamp and working hard, for doing our workouts and not complaining, for embracing the workout instead of being annoyed with it!
Whatever you choose to do, do it with all you've got. If you don't have the feeling of accomplishment and you're not feeling it, find something else!
I love fava beans so I baught a huge bag of them at my farmers market last week.
If you have ever pealed a fava bean you know it's a time consuming two step, rather tedius process.First the outer pod layer then the inner shiny shell. It takes longer to get to the actual bean than it does to saute and eat them.
As I was pealing them, I started equating it to exercise. Implementing and or starting an exercise program can be daunting, it can be frustrating, it can be time consuming and tedius yet once the rewards come along it's so worth it's while.
Anything that takes time and has a reward in the end is worth doing.
Eating well takes time but it's worth doing.
We need more fava beans please.
The definition of food according to Wickipedia is:
Any nutritious substance that people or animals eat or drink, or that plants absorb, in order to maintain life and growth.
Nourishment is becoming harder and harder to find, or is it? Is it "harder" to purchase fresh veggies and cut them up, roast,steam or sautee' them then to open up a box and put it into the microwave?
Is it "easier" to go to Starbucks for a Tall frappichino, extra whip, mocha drizzle, than to brew a pot of coffee at home and add a tablespoon of milk to it?
Is it "hard" to track your food before consuming it? Or is it "harder" to hear your doctor tell you that you are diabetic and have high blood pressure.
Is it "hard" to learn portion control, plan your meals, carry a cooler in your car with your food and be prepared for every meal? I mean you are going to eat right? so why not eat well?
Is it "hard" to not eat fast food? Or does it take you just as long, start to finish to fill a container of fabulous food and eat it when you are hungry.
Is all of this really "hard" or is it just a differerent way of fueling your body? Is it hard or do you just not want to do it?
I was at O'Hare waiting for my flight and what an amazing place to people watch.
The odor in the air was familiar but not imediately recognized until I saw the line for McDonalds.
Of course there would be a McDonalds in the United terminal.
As I stood waiting for my flight, my eyes went to a very young mom with a very small baby in a very large stroller. The mom was looking at her baby while eating her french fries and talking on her cell phone. The baby began to fuss so the mom stopped eating her french fries and with ONE hand was able to prepare the bottle for her child, all the while holding onto her iPhone. Once she propped the bottle up for the baby she got onto her Facebook account, checked in, continued eating her fries and bites of her hamburger never once looking at either.
It got me thinking about mindlessness, or mindfulness.
Do we ever stop and eat and ponder and feel full or do we just fill up because it's there.
I think it's so funny when my clients want to keep me a secret. Of course I respect that and I don't tell others who I train, but to me it's contradictory.
I am hired to provide a wonderful health service, one that will hopefully enhance my clients well being.
I guess it's the stigma attached or the "I didn't know you had so much disposable income that you can hire a trainer" attitude, when in reality, I think Health is THE MOST IMPORTANT EXPENSE AFTER PAYING YOUR MORTGAGE!
I feel that as a personal trainer and soon to be a certified Health Coach, we need to be embraced by society,not hidden, but at the same time, it's ok...I guess....to keep it a secret
Time and time again I hear "I didn't want to come tonight but I am so glad I did" or, "I would never be doing 10 more pushups, but I am because you are telling me to" or, " I'd still be in bed sleeping if I didn't have this appointment with you this morning"
What is it about human beings and the lack of desire to do something, which in this case is exercise, that they know will benefit them?
I myself have been guilty of delaying my workouts, I get busy on Fitness Connect or in my garden but in the back of my head I keep having the same conversation, "you need to go hike, you'll feel so much better when you get done", I know that and so I do it and everytime, I'm right!
So what about people who don't go to bootcamp, or don't have a personal trainer or don't like going to gyms, what do they do for motivation? The catch 22 is that if you don't start and continue for at least 10 weeks, you won't "get it" , you won't "feel the relief". But we as humans love finding excuses and we are so great at "I'll do it tomorrows" that we never really get into the groove.
As I tell my clients, I'ts all mental, it's all in your head. you can do it because you are in charge.

The gun rights effort includes those behind Gun Appreciation Day, set for January 19. On its website, the group asks Americans to "go to your local gun store, gun range or gun show with your Constitution, American flags and your 'Hands off my Guns' sign to send a loud and clear message."
Larry Ward, chairman of Gun Appreciation Day, said the event is a response to gun control laws being proposed in the current session of Congress, such as the assault weapons ban touted by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, and backed by Obama.
But some find the event's timing offensive, as it comes just two days before the president's inauguration and the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.
"There is selfish, self-serving intent in a Gun Appreciation Day," said Maria Roach, whose group United for Change USA began a petition against the event. Groups calling on people to show off their guns "are really focused on theater, and not solutions," she said.
Ward had a different interpretation.
"I believe that Gun Appreciation Day honors the legacy of Dr. King," he told CNN's Carol Costello. "I think Martin Luther King would agree with me, if he were alive today, that if African-Americans had been given the right to keep and bear arms from Day One of the country's founding, perhaps slavery would not have been a chapter in our history."
"That is ridiculous," Roach countered.

Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: Great Radio I have the GE Super Radio III. Its been a good Radio I had RE Tune the AM side over
Best Uses
Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: I bought the radio for some basic AM dxing and FM listening and have been impressed. I only expected average FM reception due to the AM emphasis in the marketing and online reputation of this radio. I was surprised to pick up very low power FM stations from 50 miles away. I am very pleased. I will buy a few more when they go back on sale.
Best Uses
Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: Reception is terrible!!! Sound quality is decent once you can get it to lock in a station but trying to find a station is difficult.
Best Uses
Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: I live in one of those "rift valleys" of upper New York, where AM/FM reception is marginal at best at night and impossible during the day, (especially for AM). I didn't buy this radio at Radio Shack, but rather from another well known vendor who hawked it on the internet as a "long range radio", which from my experience it is not. Fact is, this radio did not measure up to another Radio Shack radio I had purchased years ago, the Realistic Model 12-726, which is perhaps the best, TRUEST long range radio that Radio Shack has ever sold....(which of course, was discontinued). The only downside to the Realistic radio is that it's fidelity was not as good as I wanted....hence why I bought this RCA model. But if you are in a location where signal strength is good and where acoustics are a challange (like on a beach), then this is your radio. When it works, the fidelity will bowl you over.
Best Uses Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: I'm am sorely disappointed. The Radio Shack Optimus clone of this RCA Super Radio has been on my desk for several years and is outstanding in station sensitivity and preventing drift. I decided to buy another for the bedroom, the RCA badged offering. This one, in the side-by-side comparison, couldn't find many stations or hold them once found. Defective or just a worthless [*]rehash of a once great product? You judge. Not worth a nickle. It's goin back.
Cons Best Uses
Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: A seashore audio companion on Miami Beach, catching up with a favorite talk radio show while working in the garden, some lively musical entertainment when making repairs on the car, an accurate weather forecast for the fishing trip on Lake George, listening to a late afternoon broadcast of a Colorado Rockies baseball game, and it's a wonderful choice for the latest news and traffic information before departing for the morning commute. The RCA Superadio is an excellent portable radio for all of these scenarios and many more as well. The RCA RP7887 AM/FM Superadio III offers the best analog AM/FM reception in the portable radio product category. Additionally, this unit features the finest audio quality in its price class, superb craftsmanship, and the most robust two-way speaker sound system on the portable radio market. The most outstanding feature of the RCA Superadio is its sound system. This RCA radio can rival the sound quality of some of the better performing boombox stereos around. The speaker system offers vibrant bass performance along with smooth and transparent voice quality. The effortless reproduction of vocals and high-pitched instruments on the FM band is a distinguishing hallmark of this RCA radio. The baseball game sounds terrific on this portable, with audible cheers or jeers from the crowd depending on game situation, the distinguishable sound of the ball striking the bat, the reverberating audio quality of the umpire's ball or strike pitch call, and the detailed nuances of the announcer's voice describing the action. The monaural sound and analog reception of this radio are so good, that this unit reveals all of the imperfections in any particular station's broadcast signal. The speaker drivers rest within a cabinet that is located behind a well-built speaker grill. The speaker drivers consist of a 6.5 inch woofer for reproduction of low bass notes and midrange tonal frequencies, and a 2 inch cone tweeter that is designed to bring out the very best in the natural acoustic properties of the human voice. This speaker array is without parallel in the portable audio universe. The RCA RP7887 radio also sounds awesome with my pair of headphones connected to this unit's monaural headphone jack. This unit's 3.5mm headphone jack outputs marvelous sound to both headphone speaker drivers. The RCA Superadio features a high-performance amplifier, and excellent speaker sensitivity that allows the user to achieve room filling sound almost instantly after turning the radio on. I have found that this unit achieves excellent loudness and fidelity with only a slight turn of its 0-10 scale rotary volume control. I keep this radio's separate bass and treble controls in their center positions respectively, to achieve optimal sound performance for both talk and music programs. The RCA radio demonstrates thrilling AM reception that is just the best of its kind. The AM tuner can receive every station that I will ever need or want to listen to. This unit's large tuning dial locks in on all of the powerful mega watt stations and the low wattage local college radio station with precision and professional realism. At night, with amenable atmospheric and seasonal conditions present, this unit can pick up broadcasts from many different radio markets in the U.S. FM reception is equally spectacular here. I am able to receive out-of-market FM stations during the daytime. The FM music stations have a rich and immersive sound quality to them. I have not been able to detect the existence of distracting noise anomalies on either the AM or FM bands. At some moments, I feel like I'm listening to a home stereo system during extended music listening sessions. In my view, station drift is not an issue on this portable. Please note that this RCA portable radio does take some time to recover the last station listened to when it is powered on. Moreover, I have found that the tuning dial, which has a very nice tactile feel to it, is slightly misaligned. However, these criticisms are overwhelmingly trumped by the quantity and quality of the AM/FM stations that this unit can receive day or night, as well as this RCA radio's stunning sound reproduction on both analog broadcast bands. At this time, it's easy for me to point out that this unit easily offers the most advanced sensitivity and selectivity performance in the portable audio world with respect to its AM/FM reception capabilities. I am also pleased with this unit's fold down carry handle. The handle is of substantial quality and it makes the transport of this radio an enjoyable experience. The RCA RP7887 portable radio operates on 6 D batteries and features exemplary battery life. I have found that this unit can be powered reliably for many months on one set of batteries.

Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: gets the best reception in the serrias then anything on the market. ive used this kind of radio both on the job and in the mountains for 25 yrs.[...] Pros Cons Best Uses Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: Put in batteries, turned it on and it would make music for about 10 seconds then die. Turned on and off numerous time and about 1 out of twenty it would work for a few seconds then die. It didn't make any difference if set to AM or FM. I am returning item and looking else ware for a radio.... Pros
Best Uses Comments about RCA® High-Performance AM/FM Super-Radio: We were disappointed that this radio got no better AM reception than our old clock radio after all of the comments that indicated it did receive stations better than other radios. It also makes a terrible loud booming sound when tuning. On those stations that came in the sound was good, but an exterior antennae seemed to make things worse.

Margaux Hemingway Movies
Margaux Hemingway
was the granddaughter of great American writer
Ernest Hemingway
. Amidst much hype, the 6' tall, willowy blonde made her screen debut as a model/rape victim in
(1976), which also starred her little sister,
Mariel Hemingway
. She went on to have a sporadic film career in such fare as
Killer Fish
(1979) and
Killing Machine
(1986). Afflicted by epilepsy, eating disorders, bouts of alcoholism, and drug addiction, Hemingway died alone in her home in Santa Monica, CA. Her body was discovered on July 1, 1996. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Inner Sanctum 2
Prolific B-movie auteur Fred Olen Ray's sequel to Inner Sanctum is little more than softcore porn masquerading as an arty erotic thriller. Full of hallucination scenes, erotic nightmares, and other gimmicky devices (sometimes nested three deep), the film tells the story of nurse Jennifer Reed (Tracy Brooks Swope), who -- when she was still played by Tanya Roberts in the first movie -- killed her murderous husband after he attempted to do the same to her. Jennifer's brother-in-law Bill (Michael Nouri from Flashdance) and his wife (Sandahl Bergman) come to stay with her. When a series of hook-murders begins, the traumatized woman and her guests must determine who is drugging her and setting up the killings. None of it really matters, however, as the mystery is secondary to all of the sex and violence. There are numerous softcore couplings, as well as some pretty silly hallucinations (sex with a decaying corpse, Jennifer's graveyard dance with an undead Kato Kaelin), and even a catfight to keep the punters happy. Ray casts the film with the usual semi-names (Robert Quarry, Margaux Hemingway, David Warner, Joe Estevez) but can't muster enough MTV-style gloss on his budget to make it really work as an erotic thriller, nor enough true silliness to make it work as camp. It just sits there, as disposable as a paper plate and about as stimulating. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi

Double Obsession
Olivia D'Abo's sister Maryam and Mariel Hemingway's sister Margaux star in Double Obsession. Heather Dwyer (Margaux) falls in love with her roommate Claire Durka (Maryam), but "happily ever after" is not in the cards. Claire, you see, loves someone else, and Heather, you see, can't live with that. The sadistic one-upsmanship and domination games played throughout the film make Single White Female look like The Five Little Peppers and How They Grew. The suspense lies not in who will survive, but how long it will be before the neighbors complain. Frederic Forrest carries a what-am-I-doing-here? expression all during his brief scenes. As psycho-roommate films go, Double Obsession certainly delivers what its target audience craves. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Frame-Up 2: The Cover-Up
Released in 1993, this direct-to-video melodrama is a followup to Frame-Up (1992), with a handful of the same cast members. Wings Hauser returns as Sheriff Baker, who once again butts up against local corruption. The first "frame" didn't work in the first film, so the bigoted, cigar-chomping town boss has to use more drastic measures. Baker's wife is once more played by Frances Fisher, who seems to be marking time between better assignments. The fat-cat villain is played by John Saxon this time, replacing Frame-Up's Dick Sargent. Patty d'Arbanville and the late Margaux Hemingway also appear in Frame-Up 2: The Cover-Up. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Deadly Rivals
In this thriller, an introverted laser-research scientist journeys to Miami to attend a weapons conference and finds himself romantically entangled with a gorgeous model. A confirmed bookworm, the scientist is puzzled and flattered by her interest. He becomes more puzzled when FBI agents contact him and have him steal important documents. Later, another FBI agent appears and tells him that the two previous agents worked for the enemy. Meanwhile a gangster working for a prominent Miami Don, has kidnapped the model and is torturing her because he thinks she may have information about her sister, a mob courier who took off with a fortune in smuggled emeralds. More mayhem ensues as he tries to rescue her and finds himself further entangled with the FBI, the treacherous courier, and the mob. The story is narrated by the kidnapper who tells his complex tale in prison. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Lenny (Tom Sizemore) is the kind of man who simply cannot get through the day without messing up, or suffering some amazing piece of bad luck.

That's how he loses his job as a gas station attendant: he leaves the place to ferry Eloise, a particularly good-looking girl, to a job interview. She looks like a good thing for him though, and they move in together, despite a lack of funds. Soon, he even loses his job at a porno flick, when that gets raided by the police. Oddly, he is almost insanely jealous of Eloise's former boyfriends. After the pair of them become homeless, he cooks up a scheme to recoup some money that proves he is completely clueless, once and for all. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Killing Machine
With shoddy production values and a plot that seems to be more of an excuse for violence than anything else, this underpar drama focuses on vigilante justice. While trying to cross the border into France, a Spanish truck driver's vehicle is burned by two angry French farmers, killing the driver's wife. Unable to win his case against the men in court, the angry driver vows to avenge the death of his wife by killing the farmers and their sleazy lawyer. It may have helped to know that European farmers were irate at this time about the dumping of their produce. But then, education was not an objective here. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Over the Brooklyn Bridge
A man is torn between true love and the lure of fine dining in this romantic comedy. Alby Sherman (Elliott Gould) was born and raised in Brooklyn, where he runs a coffee shop. Alby has dreams of doing bigger and better things, and he works up the courage to ask his rich Uncle Benjamin (Sid Caesar) if he'd be willing to front him the money to open a gourmet restaurant in Manhattan. Benjamin, however, doesn't care for Alby's girlfriend Elizabeth (Margaux Hemingway), mainly because she's Catholic, and he makes Alby an unexpected offer -- he'll give him the money, but only under the condition that he breaks up with Elizabeth and marries a nice Jewish woman. The supporting cast features Carol Kane and Shelley Winters. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Add Lipstick to top of Queue
Lipstick is a cheap exploitation film pretending to make a social statement about rape and revenge. Chris (Margaux Hemingway), a fashion model is raped by Gordon Stuart (Chris Sarandon) her sister's music teacher. When he tries to rape her sister Kathy (Mariel Hemingway), Chris kills him. She is tried for the crime and defended by Carla Bondi (Anne Bancroft). Margaux Hemingway, in her film debut, is dreadful, giving a wooden performance which is only matched by that of the usually interesting Chris Sarandon. Despite some discussion of this film by feminist film critics, its only saving grace is the performance of Mariel Hemingway, who is also making her debut and gives the mature and nuanced performance she would again give in Manhattan. Lipstick, trite, bloody and dishonest, pretends to condemn rape but instead sensationalizes and exploits it. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

Osteogenesis Imperfecta Tied to Higher Risk of Cardiac Abnormalities |
Osteogenesis imperfecta is a connective tissue disorder caused by genetic defects in type I collagen synthesis, and as such is a "close relative" of some Ehlers-Danlos types. This provides more evidence that type I collagen disorders have unexpected effects on cardiac abnormalities. Osteogenesis imperfecta apparently puts patients at higher risk of cardiac abnormalities, say researchers from Norway. Patients with osteogenesis imperfecta "should be followed up more closely, and the referral threshold to a cardiologist should be lower," said lead author Dr. Zoran Radunovic from Oslo University Hospital-Aker in email to Reuters Health. The hereditary connective tissue disorder is caused by genetic defects in type I collagen synthesis. "We knew that the collagen rich tissues are affected in this group of patients and knew up to the certain level that both myocardium and valves are affected, but we were surprised at the prevalence of aortic and mitral regurgitation and increased dimensions of the left ventricle," Dr. Radunovic said. Valvular dysfunction and aortic root dilatation had been linked to osteogenesis imperfecta in a few small studies. But Dr. Radunovic and his colleagues wanted to know more about the prevalence of cardiovascular abnormalities in a larger group cohort, so they compared echocardiography findings in 99 adult patients and 52 age- and gender-matched controls. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly higher and body-surface area was significantly smaller among patients vs controls, according to their paper in the March American Heart Journal. Also, interventricular septal wall thickness, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular mass, and left ventricular relative wall thickness were significantly larger in the patients. When indexed for body-surface area, all four aortic diameters measured were significantly larger in patients than in controls. Diameters were largest in the patients with type III osteogenesis imperfecta, the most severe form. There was mild mitral regurgitation in both groups, but moderate mitral regurgitation and mild or moderate aortic regurgitation were present only in the patient group. In a multivariate linear regression analysis, osteogenesis imperfecta and systolic blood pressure were the only significant predictors of left ventricular wall thickness and mass, whereas osteogenesis imperfecta was the only significant predictor of all four aortic diameters. "We hope that the results of our study are going to draw the physician's attention and focus their interest not only on skeletal problems, which are well studied and known, but on the cardiovascular system as well," Dr. Radunovic said. "We are missing a prospective study which could help us understand the development of the disease through the years," he added. Am Heart J 2011;161:523-529. Abstract.

Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It glows brightly, and seems to prefer warm areas.
Young dragons are relatively defenseless. Their scales don't grow in until right before they mature, and they have almost no strength. Once a hatchling's wings grow in, it marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are usually left alone by their mother and begin to hunt and survive on their own.

Under Fine's leadership, WCVB has been recognized as "Station of the Year" for five of the last six years by the Associated Press. Thus far in 2011, WCVB has won six regional Edward R. Murrow Awards including the award for Overall Excellence, 11 regional AP Awards including Station of the Year, three National Headliner Awards, two Gracie Awards and three national Gabriel Awards including the Station of the Year award.

The station's award-winning website, WCVB.com, is the second-ranked media website in all of Boston. In addition to regular series --"CityLine" that addresses inner-city issues and "On the Record" that discusses politics -- the station also produces numerous award-winning specials.
In the Boston community, Fine serves on the boards of the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce and the United Way. He also serves on the Boston Medical Center Leadership Council, the Ad Council's Boston Leadership Committee and the Executive Committee of the Catholic Schools Foundation Inner City Scholarship Fund. In 2011, Boston Business Journal named Fine among the "Power 50," a list of prominent, Boston-area influencers.
In the world of broadcasting and media, Fine currently serves as entertainment chairman on the ABC Television Affiliates Association Board of Governors and is their past vice chairman. Fine is also the past chairman of the Massachusetts Broadcasting Association. Previously, he has served as chairman of the Television Bureau of Advertising's Sales Advisory Committee including a three-year term on TVB's board of directors. Fine has also served as chairman of the ABC Television Sales Advisory Committee. In 2004, he was presented with the American Advertising Federation's "Silver Medal Award" in recognition of his "Outstanding Contributions to Advertising."
During Fine's time at WBAL, the Baltimore station consistently claimed the market's top rated newscasts. In 2001, MediaWeek magazine named WBAL-TV one of America's top "Ten Stations That Do It Right." In 2000, Baltimore Magazine named Fine the city's "Best CEO."
A summa cum laude graduate of Boston University's College of Communication, Fine graduated with a bachelor of science in broadcasting and film. He began his career on-air as sports reporter/director and then sales account executive at WPTZ-TV (1977-1980), also owned by Hearst Television in the Burlington VT/Plattsburgh NY market. After a stint at TeleRep, Inc., as an account executive (1980-1981), Fine joined WCVB in the same capacity and during the next 11 years was promoted through the sales management ranks at both WBAL and WCVB, ultimately assuming the position of vice president/general sales manager at WCVB in 1996. In November 1998, he was named president and general manager of WBAL. In August 2005, Fine returned to Boston and WCVB as the station's fourth president and general manager in the station's 39-year history.
Fine resides in the Boston area with his wife, Gail, and has three children.

FRESNO, Calif., Oct. 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SNAP Learning, a recognized publisher of K-6 reading curriculum, and Emantras, an award-winning education technology company, have come together to launch SNAPPINESS, a new digital reading app which will be available in the Edmodo Store. SNAPPINESS is the only platform that offers teachers and students a one-stop, easy-to-use Common Core Literacy solution.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130116/LA43701LOGO)
"The time required to learn the Common Core, let alone implement and measure it, can seem overwhelming," says Mark Sullivan, CEO of SNAP Learning, former teacher and author of several of its leveled reading books. "Additionally if educators need to search for engaging content and motivating activities, and then map their assessments to standards, it can be a daunting task."
The SNAPPINESS app provides teachers and students with access to a digital library of engaging complex text, a host of standards-based activities, metrics for student achievement, and built-in gamification rewards.
By launching the new app on free and secure K-12 social learning platform Edmodo, SNAP Learning believes that SNAPPINESS will reach elementary teachers who are looking for this kind of solution which will save them valuable time and effort in searching for material.
Edmodo is the largest, fastest growing social platform for education with more than 27 million users worldwide. On Edmodo, teachers are at the center of a powerful network that connects them to students, administrators, and parents. This network surfaces the world's best resources and tools, providing the building blocks of a high quality education. In Edmodo's secure environment, teachers and students can collaborate, share content, and use educational apps to augment in-classroom learning. These powerful capabilities enable teachers to personalize learning for every student.
Emantras CEO Sesh Kumar says, "SNAPPINESS brings together the best of content and technology to address various key issues such as reading material availability on multiple devices, and skills measurement."
He added, "Educators now have a simple, integrated solution to offer their students digital reading and writing, which is mapped to the Common Core, is fun for young readers and monitors their performance for continual improvement."
ABOUT SNAP LEARNINGThe brainchild of Sullivan Learning Systems, SNAP Learning is a leading provider of response to intervention (RTI). SNAP's engaging books in fiction and nonfiction, along with scripted lesson plans enable educators to offer guided instruction and practice in phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension covering K-6 content in history, science, and language arts.

IntroductionThe DPC5500 is an inline deterministic polarization controller that combines deterministic state of polarization control, high speed, low loss and high accuracy in a unique and unprecedented way. This polarization controller is comprised of our high speed, low loss IPM5300 polarimeter technology and a non-deterministic state of polarization (SOP) controller. The DPC5500 is ideal for R&D, manufacturing or industrial applications that require precise deterministic control or locking of a signal's SOP.
FunctionalityIt facilitates the SOP control at a user-defined location in the optical system such that the SOP can be varied to accurately and precisely follow a prescribed path on the Poincaré Sphere. Compared to existing systems, the DPC5500 eliminates the inadequacies of most commercially available SOP controllers whose output SOP depends on the input SOP. The DPC5500 also does not suffer from drift and hysteresis effects like most other commercial high speed SOP controllers. The new all-fiber technology of the DPC5500 provides true deterministic control with very low insertion loss.
The desired SOP may either be defined via its azimuth/ellipticity parameters or its corresponding Stokes values which are graphically defined by a point on the Poincaré Sphere. Software modules for electronic SOP control, SOP tracing on the Poincaré Sphere and SOP scrambling are available for specific applications.
SOP Scrambler FeatureThis included software package adds a powerful SOP scrambling functionality to the DPC5500 that randomly distributes the SOP of the output over the Poincaré Sphere in controlled and well defined patterns. Please see the SOP Scrambler Tab for details.
Modular DesignBased on Thorlabs' TXP5000 Modular Test & Measurement System, the DPC5500 offers additional features like USB/Ethernet ports, 'plug and play' combination with other modules (see Related Items Tab), an easy-to-use graphical user interface, and flexible configuration via LabVIEW™, Labwindows/CVI™, MSVC and Borland C drivers.
System ConfigurationsThe DPC5500 is a single TXP card and includes the graphical user interface as well as all the drivers for LabVIEW™, Labwindows/CVI™, MSVC and Borland C.The DPC5500-T is a complete plug-and-play system and includes the TXP5004 Mainframe and a preconfigured laptop computer.
IntroductionThe new Deterministic SOP Scrambler mode is an included software package for the Deterministic Polarization Controller Module DPC5500. It adds a SOP scrambling functionality to the DPC5500 that randomly distributes the SOP of the output over the Poincaré Sphere in controlled and well defined patterns utilizing the new technology of the DPC5500. To adjust to the requirements of high or low speed applications like PDL measurements and depolarization this SOP Scrambler offers six modes of operation:
Controlled ScramblingThe SOP Scrambler mode applies a new goal-oriented scrambling scheme. It generates all possible polarization states within a defined time frame. The new scrambler is based on the DPC5500, Deterministic Polarization Controller, capability to adjust and hold any required output SOP from an arbitrary or even varying input SOP. It calculates all needed SOPs to cover the entire Poincaré Sphere with a specified grid and successively handles these SOPs as target polarizations for the DPC5500.
Triggered ScramblingAll scrambler modes have input trigger capability. Each event trigger causes the SOP scanner, scrambler or randomizer to switch to the next SOP. The triggered scrambling feature allows a synchronization to the experiment's environment.
The Software Package for the TXP5000 Platform contains the Software Modules for the DPC5500

The available software is organized into the following categories:

[Update, 9:25 a.m. Friday] The rain—which has been and may continue to be heavy at times—in Brewster and Southeast looks like it will come to a halt sometime around noon, according to the National Weather Service. Temperatures will likely remain in the low 40s.
New York State Electric and Gas is reporting 105 power outages, most of which are in Patterson, across Putnam. The company has listed noon as the estimated restoration time for those locations.
Friday night's weather looks clear, with a slight chance of snow showers after midnight and a low of about 30 degress.
[Original story, 2:55 p.m. Thursday] It may not be a white Christmas in Southeast this year, but folks should be ready for some rain and a few snow showers this week and weekend.
The NWS is forecasting rain and fog for the area beginning late this evening and continuing into Friday morning. Brewster and Southeast could see up to an inch and a half of rain, thunderstorms and strong wind gusts throughout the day.
Also, expect snow showers Friday night into early Saturday morning and more snowflakes on Christmas Eve night, according to the NWS. But it looks like Christmas Day is in the clear, with a high of 34 degrees and partly sunny skies.
Keep the umbrellas and boots handy this weekend while doing that last-minute holiday shopping!

i like this song for the articles
why did they collab with Akon? no one cares about him anymore since that gwen stefani song. but if JYP thinks Akon will give them the boost they need ok then..
i'm tired of all these k-pop girlgroups tbh, it's time for queen Lee Hyori to make a comeback and show all these wannabe's how it's done
LOL @ the guy with the hat in that clip, what the hell is that...
k/j-pop really is hit and miss for me, some songs I really like but I find most pretty bad. To me it feels like they focus too much on everything around it, their image, the music videos, the music itself is sort of an afterthought.
I mostly listen to the Strike witches OST for my daily/weekly need of J-pop
As far as K-pop goes, I sometimes listen to SNSD
The MV linked above is alright, can't say I like the song though.
Can anyone suggest me some songs? It can be K-pop or J-pop that doesn't really matter. I listen to SNSD sometimes and I like that new song of 2NE1, but besides that I've got pretty much nothing. I generally prefer the female groups, but I'm open to any suggestions. I tried looking through some wikipedia lists that shows all/most of the korean groups but I didn't think there'd be this many.
What are your favourite songs so far? Like, which SNSD songs do you listen to?
Here's a random song that you might like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypit0NcNV-8 (I can get you more but I want to know if I should look for cutesy ones or not etc)
I got bored so here are a few of my favourite songs from girl groups.
Girls' Generation T-ara Sistar Secret 2NE1
I think the only J-Pop band I ever listed to was Two Mix. They were responsible for writing Gundam Wing's songs.
Here is a link to a song you might be familiar with if you watched Gundam Wing Endless Waltz. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0YKfhyrn0A

Nice idea, but why only Spartan Stores? Again why are we trying to cherry pick the winners/losers etc.
What kind of idiot would introduce a bill like this? Does he actually think it would pass, being blatant discrimination against other stores? This is the kind of state legislature we should all be proud of!
You people really arent fit to legislate! Stop discriminating against some businesses in favor of others! All-or none!
Obviously, Spartan Stores made the largest contribution to Sen. Mark Jansen's (R) war chest. C'mon, Meijer and Kroger, ante up!!
Not that I don't believe the interpretation, but please explain to me where in the bill it discriminates against Meijer, etc and not Spartan?
The very specific, detailed description of what chain store(s) would be eligible to sponsor in-store wine tastings is a dead giveaway that this proposed legislation is intended to favor some particular company over all others. That is patently corrupt.
I feel the real issue here is why we are allowing any grocery store to hold wine tasting events. Our children are already bombarded enough by alcohol advertisements and displays. The Center on Alcohol Marking & Youth reports "The average age at which young people, ages 12 to 17, begin to drink is 13 years old." Another study reported by the Office of Juvenile Justice & Delinquency Prevention states:"Studies on the effects of advertising on adults do not show a strong connection between exposure to advertising and overall consumption. However, survey studies on alcohol advertising and young people consistently indicate that children and adolescents, who are exposed to alcohol advertisements have more favorable attitudes toward drinking, are more likely to be underage drinkers, and intend to drink more when they are adults." The number one killer of today's adolescents is alcohol and alcohol related accidents. Allowing grocery stores whose most frequent patrons are parents with young children, to do wine tasting events only adds yet another dimension to the systematic entrapment of young children.
This is one of the most ridiculous bills to ever come forward. We have more pressing issues to worry about other than whether Spartan Stores but not Meijer's can have wine tastings. This is a direct carve out that benefits ONE grocery business. What makes Spartan Stores better than Meijer's. Why can't the competitor have wine tastings? What is good for one should be good for all.
Why don't we worry about funding education? Worry about balancing the state budget. Truly balance it but not on the backs of the taxpayers or the children in our public schools, but by cutting taxes.
This is another bad idea in a long string of bad ideas that comes out of Lansing and a pertinent point as to why we need a part-time legislature with part-time benefits.
Here is the wording, the first line of the bill. Notice the words in parentheses. (Bolding is mine).
Introduced by Sen. Mark Jansen (R) on July 28, 2010, to allow the Spartan Stores grocery chain (but not other grocery chains like Meijer, Kroger, etc.) to hold wine tastings in its stores.
