Should I Close My Small Capital One Card?
I have had a Capital One card with a $500 limit for about a year now. Last week I got a USAA AMEX rewards card with a $6000 CL. Would it be better to close the smaller card now? I read that it would be negative in terms of my average length of credit, but since it's a small account it doesn't matter much.

Glow Devil Sticks
Light up devil sticks are a great alternative to fire for indoor gigs or for those who are too young or nervous to spin fire. We stock a range of quality glow devilsticks to suit both the professional devil sticker and the amateur enthusiast alike. LED devil sticks can also work well as children's staffs or mini staffs (batons) for adults. All our glowing devilsticks are designed specifically for devilsticking and are either tapered like a standard devil stick or have grip tape along the shaft.
At the lower end of our range are the Pro Glow devilsticks. These budget options are tough, easy to play with and reasonably bright. The ball ends protect the LED units from impacts. The LEDs are simple so there is not too much that can go wrong with them, adding to the product's durability. The shaft has a spiral of grip tape running up it's length making this devil stick a bit easier to use.
The next step up is the All Light Pro Glow. These sticks use the same body as the standard Pro Glows but the LED units are more complicated, offering a range of colours and patterns. These are a good, inexpensive option if you want a progammable devilstick.
At the top of the range are the K8 IR Glow Devilsticks. These are high quality, professional and very bright pieces of kit. What's more, they're remote controlled as well so you can change the colours and patterns from a distance! They're not cheap but they're worth every penny, especially if you'll be using it in performances.

Anne Marie Borlind Hydro Balance Night Cream Combination Skin -- 1.7 fl oz
Excellent Moisturizer!
I just started using the Borlind line about a month ago, and my skin has actually changed for the better. My combination skin is really evened out by the day and night creams. I love the scent--before I was not able to use anything with a scent but I think that I can use this because it's all plant-based. The night cream leaves your skin soft and dewy feeling, and I really notice a difference. I'm hooked.

Instead of trading it in, I would recommend adding on the Kinect. All women love dance central.
So, I've had my 360 for probably 5 years and I'm thinking about trading it in for a Wii. I think the Wii will be more fun for my wife and I to play.
I enjoy the sports games the most - are they about the same on the wii as they are on the xbox?
haha - this is true. she likes mario and zelda though...

The end of jobless benefits has many Michigan unemployed saying "Now What?"
One economist says the end of jobless benefits for thousands of Michiganders should not have a big effect on the number of jobs being filled.
More than 180 thousand people in Michigan will see their unemployment benefits expire between now and April, unless Congress agrees to grant another extension.
Kenneth Goldstein is with the Conference Board, a business research group. He says there are few real new job options, either full or part time for the 'hard-core' unemployed.
"The only thing that happened is the number of people on that line to sell shoes, deliver a pizza, to wait on a table...deliver packages...that line just got longer," says Goldstein, "The number of jobs didn't get larger. The number of people looking for one of those jobs got longer."
Michigan's statewide jobless rate is just under 13 percent.

Plan Your Wedding, Meeting or Romantic Getaway at the Cliff House Luxury Hotel in Colorado Springs, CO
What makes a hotel truly special?
Prestige? Romance? Luxury?
As a four diamond Colorado Springs Hotel, these attributes are very important, and we have each of them in abundance, but none of them matter as much as... the stories.
The stories that are started here, by brides and grooms celebrating their weddings.
The stories that are commemorated here, when couples choose us for their anniversaries.
The stories that are shared here, when family vacations become unforgettable memories.
Our stories really do matter: they define who we are.
You see, as the premier historic hotel of the Greater Colorado Springs area, our history is forever intertwined with what we are today. In fact, The Cliff House is older than the State of Colorado itself! And just like your story, we have had our ups and downs: we have played host to famous dignitaries, and we have been a barracks for soldiers. Later floods and fires have even threatened our hotel's very existence.
But, just like you, we've persevered. After our extensive remodel and grand re-opening in 1999, we quickly proved that The Cliff House is once again one of Colorado's finest luxury hotels. Nestled at the foot of majestic Pikes Peak, we've managed to keep all the trappings of Victorian elegance and luxury and also become a leader in innovative room features with state-of-the-art technology.
Since 2001, we've consecutively received the prestigious AAA Four Diamond Award for both the hotel and our dining room. Our dining room has also received the DiRoNa Award, and Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence, every year.
From our world-class fine dining, our amazing rooms, personalized service, our fun new bar and grill, to the limitless experiences and activities Manitou Springs has to offer: we are confident that you will love your stay here... and what a story you'll have to tell!
We're proud of our history. Come share yours with us!
We're within ten minutes of downtown Colorado Springs, but (rest assured) a world away!

After his education at l'Académie des Beaux-arts in Brussels, Louis-Michel Carpentier started working at the Belvision studios. There, he worked on the animation movies of 'Astérix', 'Tintin' and 'Lucky Luke'. Starting in 1975, Carpentier adapted a few novels by the countess De Ségur to comics at Casterman. In 1980, he began a collaboration with scenario writer Raoul Cauvin. They started out with the series 'Les Toyottes' at Casterman and later at Lombard. In addition, they did 'L'Année de la Bière' at Archers, a series that was later continued at Dupuis under the name 'Du Cûté de Chez Poje'. This gag series about a pub is also published in several local dialects.
With Claude Armant, he made 'Humour en Tranch(é)es' in 1985, an album full of black humour. He continued this series on his own under the title 'Le Jeur le Plus Con' at his own publishing house Top Game. He also teamed up with fellow artists Malik, Kox and Jidéhem to create the collective album 'Chansons Cochonnes'.

If you show up to the New York Academy of Medicine the night of April 27th, you'll hear journalist Tom Maier discuss his new biography of famous sex researchers William Masters and Virginia Johnson. (Maier reveals some of what he dug up on the truth behind "gay conversion" therapy in this Perspective for ScientificAmerican.com.)
What you'll see if you look at who sponsored the event, however, is another familiar name: Hugh Hefner.

President Obama outlined his vision today for high-speed rail service in the U.S, identifying 10 corridors in heavily populated regions around the country – from the Pacific northwest to the gulf states – for the laying of hundreds of miles of new tracks.
The stimulus bill that passed in February set aside $8 billion for the initiative. The Federal Railroad Administration will begin awarding grants late this summer after a competitive bidding process amongst rail companies.
Proponents of high-speed rail say the system will ease traffic congestion by lessening vehicular and plane travel, cut pollution by reducing dependence on fossil fuels and also create jobs in a down economy. "My high-speed rail proposal will lead to innovations that change the way we travel in America," President Obama said today. "High-speed rail is long overdue."

Internet security firm McAfee reports that the 62 trillion junk e-mails sent in 2008 gobbled up enough electricity to power more than 2.4 million homes for a year.
In a study released yesterday, McAfee says that each unsolicited piece of spam – promising you better performance in the sack or begging you to steward the riches of a foreign businessperson, for example – actually contributes 0.3 gram of the carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere of an already-warming planet. The company and consultant partner ICF International reviewed emissions they pegged to spam in 11 countries and averaged those out for the rest of the world.

NASA said in a press release this week that twin spacecraft providing long-view, 3-D images of the sun might help provide better warning about solar storms, particularly events called coronal mass ejections (CMEs).
These torrents of ionized gas and magnetic field energy can weigh billions of tons and stretch to many times the size of Earth. When these solar hurricanes come into contact with our planet's atmosphere, they can damage satellites, interfere with radio communications and cell phones, and knock out power grids on the ground, as they did on March 13, 1989, leaving six million Canadians without power. (Besides wrecking havoc, CMEs also produce dazzling displays known as the aurora borealis or australis, the northern and southern lights.)

Scientists and policy makers hoping to adopt a new climate change treaty at this December's United Nations' meeting in Copenhagen might have reason to worry about achieving an international accord: A major player, India, home to a sixth of the world's population, may not be on board with limiting its greenhouse emissions.
"If the question is whether India will take on binding emission reduction commitments, the answer is no. It is morally wrong for us to agree to reduce when 40 percent of Indians do not have access to electricity," said an Indian delegate to the recently concluded U.N. climate conference in Bonn, Germany, according to the Washington Post.

Despite an infusion of federal funds, there are reports that General Motors (GM) – the nation's No. 1 and the world's No. 2 automaker is preparing to declare bankruptcy on June 1. GM was leader of the pack for 77 years until 2007 when Toyota surpassed it as the globe's top car seller. Meantime, the company is fielding offers for its king gas-guzzler, the Hummer, which has attracted interested bidders despite its enviro-hostile rep and dismal sales.
Detroit-based GM has received over $13 billion in government support since last year to keep it afloat despite slumping sales, in part due to the firm's reliance on gas-eating sports utility vehicles and pickup trucks. These vehicles have fallen out of favor in the face of rising oil prices.
The Detroit News reports that GM is mulling declaring bankruptcy and reorganizing in a way that would enable it to retain its most promising Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac brands. That means the electric-gas hybrid Chevy Volt would continue its rollout, even though GM expects to lose money on the first generation of the high-tech vehicle, according to Automotive News.

FuelMaker, the Honda-owned, Canada-based manufacturer of natural gas fueling systems for vehicles, went belly-up last week. The company made the only residential natural gas refueling product (called Phill) in the world.
Fortunately for vehicle owners, Honda plans to sell the company's assets and intellectual property, meaning FuelMaker products, albeit under a different name, are likely to remain available, says Alicia Milner, president of the Canadian Natural Gas Vehicle Alliance.
FuelMaker was born of automakers' desire to address the public's urge to break or at least lessen its addiction to fossil fuels. Car companies have increasingly turned to batteries, hydrogen, and solar power to energize new generations of vehicles. Less conspicuous in this shift to cleaner fuels has been natural gas, far cleaner burning than gasoline, and already the leading alternative fuel source for U.S. commercial fleets, powering about 10 percent of the mass transit buses in the U.S. and 5 percent of those in Canada, Milner says. The monthly consumption of natural gas by domestic vehicles has quadrupled the last decade as more vehicles have taken to the streets, according to the Energy Information Administration.

The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed current and former national security officials, reports that spies from China, Russia and other countries have hacked into the U.S. electricity grid and installed software that could cause mass outages. According to these same officials, the foreign agents have not sabotaged the grid (yet), but rather want to "map our infrastructure" for possible exploitation in case of a future war.
Sound a bit cloak and dagger?
"It's all hype and it's fear-mongering," says Bruce Schneier, a security technologist who writes a blog and is chief of security at BT, a U.K.-based communications services company. He says odds are those countries have mapped U.S. power grids just as the U.S. has no doubt mapped theirs—but that it's sort of business as usual rather than cause for concern.

Where should new solar and wind power facilities go? Seems many of the best potential sites, including rugged, windswept regions in the Rocky Mountains to the sun-baked Mojave Desert, contain swathes of land legally set aside as national parks, or support what remains of an endangered species' dwindling habitat, for example.
Now environmental groups have teamed up with Google to offer the Path to Green Energy map on Google Earth that highlights protected areas to prevent alt-energy developers from clashing with conservationists over where to place solar, wind and geothermal generators.

Antarctica's newly inaugurated Princess Elisabeth Station is the white continent's first research facility that doesn't emit any greenhouse gases, according to the Belgium-based International Polar Foundation that designed and constructed it. The research center, open to scientists from around the globe, is located about 120 miles (200 kilometers) from the coast in Eastern Antarctica, due directly south of Africa's southern tip. The station will draw power from wind turbines (eight for now, and nine next year) and solar panel arrays rather than from the diesel generators that power most other stations.

A couple of weeks ago, I was cornered by a publisher after an appearance. The point of her rant was how much she could do for me as a publisher. She made her point while poking me in the chest saying, "You should be writing. You shouldn't be publishing. You should be writing."
Well, that was what I started out wanting to do. I've always wanted to be a writer. From the beginning, I dreamed of making it to the point in my career where I could stay home all day in my writer's studio and do nothing but think about murder and write my mysteries.
But something happened to that dream as happens to all dreams. It was a fantasy. It is not the reality. The lack of this happening is not a reflection on my talent or writing ability. Rather, it is a reflection on how the publishing world works.
The truth is: Unless you're Stephen King, Dan Brown, or J.K. Rowling, the publishers are only going to throw you the scraps of profit from your books. The rest will go to them, the literary agents, and publicists. If you want anyone to know about your book, you will need to spend your advance and beyond, plus your time and energy on marketing it, because the publisher isn't going to do it for you—unless you're one of their top one percent selling authors.
Then, to thank you for all your hard work, they take over ninety-percent.
So, writers started thinking, "Hey, since I'm going to have to do all the work anyway to make my book a success, why not publish it myself and; instead of eating scraps, help myself to the filet mignon?"
Signs of the revolution can be seen in the success of self-publishing companies like CreateSpace, iUniverse, and Lulu. Saying, "I don't need you anymore," more authors are turning their backs on literary agents who a few years ago read their query letters for laughs.
The funny thing is, I have found that I'm good at publishing my own books. Not only am I good at it. I like doing it.
Yes, instead of spending my days thinking about murder and writing mysteries, I've been beating the drum to change the course of publishing. From the looks of things, independent authors are gaining territory:
- Barry Eisler turned down a half million dollar advance to renew his contract in favor of self-publishing.
- Penquin Books has dived into self-publishing. That must have caused quite a stir among their fellow big publisher buddies.
- Independent author, Amanda Hocking has sold more than a million books online with Kindle, joining the ranks of Nora Roberts, Dan Brown, and other traditionally published authors.
So much for self-published authors being second rate hacks. Tell Amanda Hocking and Barry Eisler that they're wannabees.
This is not to say that I think traditional publishers should go away. I have as much respect for an agented author who publishes through Random House as I do an independent author who puts in all the work to self-publish through LuLu.
Simply, I expect the same respect from that author, his agent, and his publisher … and others in the literary arena.
Yes, many in the literary arena still think of independent authors as second-class writers:
1. Many conferences refuse to let us sit on their author panels simply because we've invested in our own books.
2. Most of the big literary magazines will only review our books if we pay them hundreds of dollars for the privilege of them doing so, which diminishes credibility among many of our peers.
3. Some of the bigger bookstore chains (Books-A-Million is one) still won't let us hold events in their stores, even after our books have proven themselves with reviews and sales.
Yes, some days, these injustices do irk at me. When it does, I think back on a quote by Theodore Roosevelt:
"Believe you can, and you're halfway there."
How about that, dear authors? We're halfway there!

22 Porsche Carrera's For Sale
About Carrera
The Carrera name has been applied to a number of cars built by Porsche over the years, beginning with the 356 in the early days of the company and continuing to its modern offerings.
Carrera literally means 'race' in Spanish and the name is given to Porsche models in order to mark various victories that Porsche has had in a Mexican road race known as Carrera Panamericana.
While there have been plenty of Porsche Carrera models which were derived from existing cars like the 911 and the 924, there is only one version which bore the name outright; the Carrera GT.
The Carrera GT started life as a concept car and was in part derived from the various racing vehicles which the company produced in order to take part in the Le Mans 24 hour race during the late 1990s.
It had a relatively difficult development cycle, if only because it resulted from a number of cancelled projects and canned initiatives before it was eventually launched in 2004.
With a 5.7 litre V10 engine capable of developing 604bhp, it was actually more powerful than the original concept on which it was based.
A maximum speed rating of 205 miles per hour is cited in the official Porsche documentation and the Carrera GT can reach 60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds. However, its performance ratings on paper have actually been exceeded in real world road tests, which perhaps suggests that Porsche was underestimating, rather than overestimating, its capabilities.
The wheels are an inch larger at the rear than they are at the front and carbon ceramic disc brakes give the Carrera GT all the stopping power it needs to keep its speed under durable control.
A rear mounted spoiler which only protrudes when the 70mph mark is crossed is a nice touch, albeit one which indicates that UK speed laws have been breached if seen on public roads.
Close to 1300 Porsche Carrera GTs were built in its three year production run and it remains one of the most prestigious supercars around, not only in terms of its performance but also the technology which went into it.

This is a safety sensor that will measure the air pressure inside of the combustion chamber. It is valid for all models regardless of the year of manufacture or model.
If this sensor fails to activate, or deactivates after the unit is running, the #2 or AS light on your control panel will blink. This blinking light is NOT an indication that the air switch is defective. The air switch is the most reliable component on the stove.
If you gently suck on the black nipple of the air switch and hear a click, then the air switch is functioning correctly and does not need to be replaced.

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - A boom in domestic oil drilling has helped lower U.S. gasoline prices, though the steepest drops have missed California commuters, Midwestern farmers and even New York commodities traders who know all about oil pricing.
Many drivers on the East and West coasts are paying over $1 a gallon more than drivers in the Rockies. One factor is the region's relative abundance of oil from booming fields in Canada and North Dakota.
Analysts say oil is bottlenecked in the Rockies because U.S. pipelines were built to carry oil from the coasts inland - not in the opposite direction.
Relatively low fuel taxes also help keep gasoline prices low in Rocky Mountain states.

I absolutely love Glenn Martin, DDS. Is there any chance you will have any other episodes back on your Web site? Season 2 perhaps?
Failing that, do you know where in Canada I can purchase of copy of the series? I have checked absolutely everywhere, including Amazon, to no avail.

He has been watching her for three years now. He had never ever talked to any one other than his family. He was creepy and weird. He also had powers. All he really wanted is to get to know ---. He wanted to give her anything. He was obsessed with her. The demon also knew everything about her. Also.. He is evil.. But no one knows that part
The girl had a secret behind her though, that of course her and the demon knew about. She always had bad dreams and she lives in a life of fear. Her dream seem to also come to live because she hallucinates.
The demon one day comes up to her and he tells her that he knew about her dreams. He introduces himself as Gordan. --- thinks he is a creep and tries to get away though Gordan follows her everywhere trying to make her give in to the deal. That'd he would give her anything.. And help her out, with a few catches.

A good number of heros can use SOTM but who should you be getting it on and who should you not? I know someone like can get SOTM but you should NEVER get it.
So the ones that I think you should get it on are
One thing that I think a lot of people over look is that for 4300 you get some pretty good stat increase and for most of the heros being intel the stat gain is really well needed.
Basically, you get it on heroes who get some new function to their ult and not just damage when boosted by sotm. There are some exceptions though, like . Heroes like just get a small boost to their ults damage, so going for some other items is more preferable.
I prefer sotm on these heroes
It is a plain must for these
Ummmmmmmm gonna have to disagree on ur luxary.
Good: Wretched Hag, Chip, Polli, Voodoo, Pharo. I would say ds is also good, but usually never happens cuz im getting other stuff
Pyro and Ws should never get staff waste of teh money.
Chronos=NIEN. U solo team, dont need an xtra atk,
Never on glacius cuz... well... ur glacius....
Sheriff has it right, although i'd add polly into 'prefer'. I'd say it's best on chipper, though. Adds so much in a team fight it's amazing.
There are better items to get for MQ, but SotM takes CD from 160s to 90s. That's a pretty huge difference. I would only say never on Witch / Pyro. There are better items for survival and there are better items for damage for both of them.
I only get :StaffOfTheMastern against :chro:
Sorry about the bad english
Actually it's okayish on Thunderbringer since it causes the ultimate to deal 550 bonus damage in total, guaranteed. If you can get it till around 30 minutes, it should be still good.
Similar for Pyromancer/Witchslayer/Hag. If you can get it fast, it's viable (usually when you've been mid and had a good game getting a lot of hk's through ganking). For Hag it generally can be very useful because of the cooldown reduction, but personally, if I were looking for cooldown reduction I'd go for Behemoth's Heart, since it provides 20 seconds CD reduction on her ult while also reducing Sonar Scream CD by 1 second, compared to SotM which provides 15/35/55 second CD reduction on her Ultimate.

Core on chipper, voodoo, hag, and maybe polly.

Sometimes on Pharaoh and Slither
I don't think you understand why he does it. He gets SOTM on pyro so he can BURST chronos. If chronos is half health and you can kill him in one hit, he can't rewind it. Codex is just another nuke that can be rewound.
I wouldn't get it on pyro though. Might as well get sheepstick.
What about Electrician?
It gives the bounce to Cleansing Shock?
Well I don't think you quite understand how rewind works. If you use Codex immediately after ult that Chronos will die. Mind you it's a delayed healing.
Personally I'm a huge fan of SotM on Nymph. Being able to port a full team, or saving that teammate who's being 5-man raped is just golden. I can also bring teammates who just respawned or bought back right back to the other side of the map to join the fight again.
Nah hellflower is wayyyy better for pyro. Since his ferver stacks, the attack speed really helps put down some charges (which have gotten me quite a few kills when someone was going to get away) and the 20% increased damage and silence gives his ult a serious true damage boost, and gives pyro an extra disable for a hero like chronos since he cant leap away.

Sandals Foundation renovates Clement Howell High |
Thursday, 09 September 2010 09:42 | |||
A group of highly enthusiastic and motivated team members of Beaches Resorts Villages and Spa, and its charitable arm, the Sandals Foundation, recently hosted a renovation project at Clement Howell, the largest public high school in the country. The resort and its charitable arm announced the adoption of the Blue Hills-based high school last month and has kept its promise to facilitate and assist the school in preparation for the 2010 school year. The project was accomplish over three days by a team of volunteers made up of Beaches team members, parents and students of the school. They renovated several classrooms, painted the entire D block, installed doors, locks and light switches, as well planting more than 200 trees around the school grounds. "Normally the repairs and renovations of the school is done by the government EMS Department," said Principal Lloyd Fearon. "Unfortunately due to the economic challenges, the government was unable to assist with any repairs for the 2010-11 school year." "We are really delighted that the Sandals Foundation was able to assist us with this much needed renovation exercise," Fearon said. Heidi Clarke, director of the Sandals Foundation, said she was pleased to add Clement Howell to its group of adopted schools. "The Sandals Foundation puts education of our region's youth as one of our top priorities," Clarke said. "We look forward to working with the parents, staff and students at Clement High in our mission to be part of positive change." This is the second government school in Providenciales that the Sandals Foundation has taken under its wings since March 2009. The charitable organization inducted the underprivileged secondary institution into their Caribbean-wide school adoption program with plans for upgrading their facility while engaging, encouraging, and empowering its students. The foundation drafted a 12-month curriculum aimed at enhancing the school. In addition to renovating the D Block, also known as the Samuel Forbes Buildings, the foundation will also establish a sick bay, install water pumps at the school and also provide CPR training for teachers. Other benefits will include the beginning of the highly anticipated library building project and also the implementation of high school breakfast feeding program for underprivileged students. Across the Caribbean the Sandals Foundation has adopted a total of 27 schools with Clement Howell High as its latest addition. The foundation works closely to provide support and assistance to schools while working with parents, teachers and pupils of the community.

"I'm eating right and doing cardio, why aren't I losing weight?" I hear that all the time. Usually there are two things going on:
1) Your eating habits are solid—but your drinking habits (i.e. booze) are not 2) Where's the weight training?
I will quickly address number one and then focus on number two. I'm not saying you can't have a drink, just be aware of the calories.
• Light Beer = 110 calories (4 beers, 440 calories) • 4 ounces Red Wine = 80 calories (that's like a shot of wine) • 4 ounces White Wine = 75 calories • 1 ounce Vodka = 65 calories (that's one shot-not including the Sprite)
Find your favorite drink here.
And let's not forget, what happens after a night of drinking— the burritos, hot dogs, greasy fries… To find out what's really sabotaging your diet, write it down! Track three days and look for trends like the post lunch chocolate, the 4 p.m. cookie, the 9 p.m. ice cream…
Since I'm not a nutritionist, I'm going to focus on burning fat! Let me be honest here, it's not easy to get ripped. The magazine cover abs are usually airbrushed, so first things first, have realistic expectations. Second, what's your routine? And most importantly, how long have you been doing it for?
Your body is smart— it adapts to how you train. If you've been doing the same workout for months, your body will get use to it and that same routine that kicked your butt is now easy and slowing down your fat loss. A client recently told me, "I've been doing the same video for two years. What am I doing wrong?" I told her it's time to buy some new videos. Mixing up your routine forces you to use different muscles, fatigue yourself in a new way and if you keep reading, you'll learn the secret to super fat loss.
Another big fitness problem is the cardio-aholic. Yes, I'm talking to you Ms. I'm Too Afraid To Weight Train. If your workout consists of only cardio, you need to add weight training! On the other hand, if you're not doing any cardio, slowly incorporate it into your workout. I say slowly because if you start out too fast, shin splints, knee pain, and other injuries can pop up. Talk to me or a trainer at your gym to lower your risk of injury.
One huge benefit to weight training is you will gain muscle. Most people, especially women, will not turn into Arnold from lifting weights. Sure, a few genetic studs gain muscle easy but the majority of us will gain a few pounds of muscle. And muscles are great because they burn more calories than fat. Another benefit to hitting the weights is you will burn calories. Pumping iron burns lots of calories, especially if you do exercises that work multiple muscle groups at once like, pushups, chin ups, and squatting.
Now, to get the biggest bang for your buck combine cardio and weights (circuit training). Circuit training is popular because it works and it's efficient. I mean, who has time for 90 minutes of cardio that will eventually lead to joint pain? Take 30-60 minutes and make it count. The combination of getting your heart rate elevated and pumping your muscles will help you lean up fast. I recommend picking eight or so exercises and running from one to the other with little rest between each set.
Circuit Example: Squat Push up Row Hold Plank Jump rope for 2 minutes Dumbbell Bicep curl and shoulder press Dips Lunge —repeat—
Questions/comments? Let me know. You can find most of these exercises on YouTube.
Make sure you check with your doctor before starting an exercise routine.

What Personal Information Do We Collect? We collect and maintain different types of personal information in respect of individuals with whom we interact. This includes:
As a general rule, Greenstar collects personal information directly from you. In most circumstances where the personal information that we collect about you is held by a third party, we will obtain your permission before we seek out this information from such sources (such permission may be given directly by you, or implied from your actions). The third parties that we may collect information from include credit reporting agencies (for the purpose of conducting a credit check where you wish to obtain credit from us).
From time to time, we may utilize the services of third parties (including other members of the Greenstar Group) in our business and may also receive personal information collected by those third parties in the course of the performance of their services for us or otherwise. Where this is the case, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that such third parties have represented to us that they have the right to disclose your personal information to us.
Where permitted or required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, we may collect information about you without your knowledge or consent.
Why Do We Collect Personal Information? Greenstar collects personal information to enable us to manage and develop our business and operations, including:
How do we Use Your Personal Information? We use your personal information:
When Do We Disclose Your Personal Information? We only use or disclose personal information where necessary to fulfill the purposes identified in this Privacy Policy. We share your personal information with our employees, contractors, consultants and other parties (including other members of the Greenstar Group) who require such information to assist us with establishing, maintaining and managing our business relationship with you, including: third parties that provide services to us or on our behalf; third parties that collaborate with Greenstar in the provision of services to you; and, third parties whose services we use to perform our services.
Further, your personal information may be disclosed:
Your Consent is Important to Us It is important to us that where we collect, use or disclose your personal information we have your consent to do so. Depending on the sensitivity of the personal information, your consent may be implied, deemed (using an opt-out mechanism) or express. Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing. Implied consent is consent that can reasonably be inferred from your action or inaction. For example, when you accept our products or services, we will assume your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for purposes related to your acceptance and use of those products or services, or for other purposes identified to you at the relevant time.
Typically, we will seek your consent at the time that we collect the personal information. In certain circumstances, your consent may be obtained after collection but prior to our use or disclosure of your personal information. If we plan to use or disclose your personal information for a purpose not previously identified (either in this Privacy Policy or separately), we will endeavor to advise you of that purpose before such use or disclosure.
As we have described above, we may collect, use or disclose your personal information without your knowledge or consent where we are permitted or required to do so by applicable law or regulatory requirements.
Choice/Opt-Out You may change or withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice, by contacting the office of our Privacy Officer using the contact information set out below. In some circumstances, a change in or withdrawal of consent may severely limit our ability to provide products or services to, or acquire products or services from, you. All communications with respect to such withdrawal or variation of consent should be in writing and addressed to our Human Resources Manager.
We assume that, unless you advise us otherwise, by receiving or reviewing this Privacy Policy or by continuing to deal with us, you have consented to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as explained in this Privacy Policy.
How Long Do We Retain Your Personal Information? If we use your personal information to make a decision that directly affects you, we will retain that personal information for at least one year so that you have a reasonable opportunity to request access to it.
Except as stated above, as otherwise permitted, or required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, Greenstar endeavors to retain your personal information only for as long as it believes is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the personal information was collected (including, for the purpose of meeting any legal, accounting or other reporting requirements or obligations).
Accuracy of Your Personal Information Since we use your personal information to provide products and services to you, or to obtain products and services from you, it is important that the information contained in our records is both accurate and current. If your personal information happens to change during the course of our relationship, please let us know. In some circumstances we may not agree with your request to change your personal information and will instead append an alternative text to the record in question.
How is Your Personal Information Protected? Greenstar endeavors to maintain physical, technical and procedural safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information in question. These safeguards are designed to prevent your personal information from loss and unauthorized access, copying, use, modification or disclosure. Greenstar will also use appropriate security measures when destroying personal information, and instead of destroying or erasing your personal information, may make it anonymous such that it cannot be associated with or tracked back to you.
Access to Your Personal Information You can ask to see the personal information that we hold about you. If you want to review, verify or correct your personal information, please contact our Human Resources Manager using the contact information set out below. Any such communication must be in writing.
When requesting access to your personal information, please note that we may request specific information from you to enable us to confirm your identity and right to access, as well as to search for and provide you with the personal information that we hold about you. We will make the requested information available within 30 business days, or provide written notice of an extension where additional time is required to fulfill the request. We may charge you a minimal fee to access your personal information, however, we will advise you of any fee in advance. If you require assistance in preparing your request, please contact our Human Resources Manager.
Your right to access the personal information that we hold about you is not absolute. There are instances where applicable law or regulatory requirements allow or require us to refuse to provide some or all of the personal information that we hold about you. In addition, the personal information may have been destroyed, erased or made anonymous in accordance with our record retention obligations and practices.
In the event that we cannot provide you with access to your personal information, we will endeavour to inform you of the reasons why, subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions.
Questions or Complaints? If you have any questions about this Employee Privacy Policy, concerns or complaints about how we manage your personal information, please contact our Human Resources Manager by telephone, in writing or by e-mail:
Natalie Emberly H/R Manager (604) 882-7699 Ext 241 email@example.com
Revisions to this Privacy Policy Greenstar may from time to time make changes to this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in its legal or regulatory obligations or in the manner in which we deal with your personal information. We will post any revised version of this Privacy Policy on our website: http://www.getgreenstar.com/ and we encourage you to refer back to it on a regular basis. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will be effective from the time they are posted, provided that any change that relates to why we collect, use or disclose your personal information will not apply to you unless you consent to such change. This Privacy Policy was last updated on November 22, 2007.
Interpretation of this Privacy Policy Any interpretation associated with this Privacy Policy will be made by our Human Resources Manager. This Privacy Policy includes examples but is not intended to be restricted in its application to such examples, therefore where the word 'including' is used, it shall mean 'including without limitation'.
This Privacy Policy does not create or confer upon any individual any rights, or impose upon Greenstar any rights or obligations outside of, or in addition to, any rights or obligations imposed by Canada's federal and provincial privacy laws, as applicable. Should there be, in a specific case, any inconsistency between this Privacy Policy and Canada's federal and provincial privacy laws, as applicable, this Privacy Policy shall be interpreted, in respect of that case, to give effect to, and comply with, such privacy laws.

Today's reports by the Social Security and Medicare trustees bring good news for both programs. The reports are a needed comeuppance to right wing ideological opponents of Social Security and Medicare who, year after year, twist the facts to undermine confidence in these essential programs, hoping that this will lessen public resistance to their wildly unpopular agenda of benefit cuts, privatization, and vouchers.
The report by the Medicare Board of Trustees shows that the recently enacted health care reform legislation will significantly slow Medicare cost growth, extending the life of Medicare's trust fund for 12 years, reducing Part B premiums and reducing the federal deficit ... more

- Indianapolis 500 Veteran Grant Dies At 77
August 13, 2012 | By Donald Davidson
Indianapolis 500 Veteran Grant Dies At 77
Jerry Grant, a 10-time competitor in the Indianapolis 500 and the first person to qualify for a race faster than 200 mph in an Indy car, died Sunday, Aug. 12. He was 77.
Grant, a prominent American road racer, turned his historic 201.414-mph lap in 1972 at Ontario, Calif. But he is probably best remembered for nearly winning the 1972 Indianapolis 500.
Driving the purple Mystery Eagle as teammate to Bobby Unser on Dan Gurney's All-American Racers team, Grant led at the 188-lap mark when he had to pit to replace a tire which was losing air. Instead of pitting in his stall, he went to the adjoining one of Unser, who had retired much earlier in the day. Whether or not Grant actually took on any fuel from Unser's refueling tank is up for discussion, but the hoses were momentarily hooked up, and it became known that the tank in his own pit was apparently empty, the maximum allotment of 275 gallons having been exhausted.
While Grant did finish the 500 miles, taking the checkered flag in second place behind Mark Donohue, officials subsequently disallowed Grant's final 12 laps, thus dropping him from second to 12th.
Such an occurrence was hardly a new experience for Grant. With only five minutes remaining in the 1966 Sebring 12 Hours, the Ford GT Mk. II he shared with Gurney was in front when a mechanical issue forced Gurney to stop on the course. Gurney then proceeded to push the stricken car the final 300 yards to the finish line, whereupon he was disqualified.
Gurney and Grant would have placed second, based on distance covered, if the car remained untouched at the side of the road. Less than three months later, Gurney and Grant were seemingly on their way to winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans when a mechanical issue eliminated them while leading at the 21-hour mark.
The diversified Grant, who climbed from 43rd to fifth in the 1967 Daytona 500, finished fifth in the 1966 Dixie 400 at Atlanta, co-drove a Ford Cobra in the 1964 Targa Florio (shared second in the GT class with Gurney) and had three top-10 finishes in the Indianapolis 500, topped by a seventh place in 1970. He competed in 49 USAC National Championship races between 1965-77, placing third in the 1974 Ontario 500 and fourth in a 150-mile event in 1969 on the road course at Castle Rock, Colo.
An entertaining speaker and story teller, Grant became part of Champion Spark Plug Company's Highway Safety program, lecturing on highway safety to students and service personnel, eventually succeeding Fred Agabashian as Champion's senior lecturer.
