New Research Shows Most Americans Misidentify Turban-Wearers In U.S.
PALO ALTO, CALIF. – In a groundbreaking new study titled "Turban Myths," researchers at SALDEF (Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund) and Stanford University found that 70 percent of Americans misidentify turban-wearers as Muslim (48 percent), Hindu, Buddhist or Shinto. In fact, almost all men in the U.S. who wear turbans are Sikh Americans, whose faith originated in India.

Between Two Worlds - How Young Latinos Come of Age in America
Hispanics are the largest and youngest minority group in the United States. One- in-five schoolchildren is Hispanic. One-in-four newborns is Hispanic. Never before in this country's history has a minority ethnic group made up so large a share of the youngest Americans. By force of numbers alone, the kinds of adults these young Latinos become will help shape the kind of society America becomes in the 21st century.

Social Networks Help Hispanics Prepare for Disasters
Historically, authorities have used broad media campaigns to encourage the public to prepare for disasters — an approach that has proven largely ineffective. For this new study, UCLA researchers sought to test novel, culturally tailored, informal social networking approaches to improve disaster preparedness, using data on 231 Hispanics in Los Angeles County.

What is in this article?:
- 5 hot summer food and beverage trends
- Food with roots
- Seasonal fruit
Going back to basics and a do-it-yourself approach help operators double down on what's familiar.
Economic recovery is often reflected in culinary trends. Improved consumer confidence tends to foster exuberance in restaurant kitchens as chefs experiment with new flavors, combinations and techniques.
However, although macroeconomic indicators currently show improvement, food and beverage trends are retrenching a bit this summer as restaurateurs see customers double-down on the familiar.
Back to Basics, but better
Omni Hotels and Resorts' cocktails jumped 20 percent when it did away with its drink list that had signature cocktails with many of the mixology flourishes that seem so popular. The hotel in its place presented a pared down list of Manhattans, Martinis and Mules.
The cocktails still had distinctive flourishes — the four Manhattans each had a unique combination of whiskey, vermouth and bitters — but they were easy for customers to understand and easy for bartenders to make.
This tactic is being reflected in the quick service segment, where Krystal has introduced Stackers — simply double-decker sliders — and Carl's Jr. and Hardee's have introduced their Big Chicken Fillet Sandwich, an improved version of their chicken sandwich, for which the sister chains replaced batter-fried chicken tenders with a hearty five-ounce breast and served it on the baked-in-house buns that they reserve for their premium sandwiches. Both of those items are permanent additions.
Wendy's is reflecting the back-to-basics approach by bringing back last summer's limited time offers: the Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger and accompanying Pretzel Pub Chicken Sandwich.

It's a bit too cold for Alaskans with green thumbs to participate in National Garden Day on May 9, but as with many other things in the 49th state, a small adaptation solves the problem. A new law celebrates the state's public gardens. In 2012, the Alaska House of Representatives moved to establish Alaska Public Gardens Day on the Saturday immediately preceding Memorial Day each year. This year, the celebration will be on Saturday, May 24, 2014. By passing the bill, the House recognized the role gardens play in promoting environmental stewardship, the economy, education, plant conservation, recreation and research in Alaska.
Alaska has three American Public Garden Association member gardens: the Alaska Botanical Garden in Anchorage, the University of Alaska Fairbanks Georgeson Botanical Garden in Fairbanks and the Jensen-Olson Arboretum in Juneau.
"Alaska's public gardens contribute heavily to our sense of community," said Rep. Beth Kerttula, D-Juneau, the bill's prime sponsor. "They are tourism destinations and are great places for local children and adults to learn about gardening, ecology, and science."

Ruby Tuesday Reports Fourth Quarter And Annual Fiscal 2013 Results
Ruby Tuesday, Inc. (NYSE: RT) today reported financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended June 4, 2013.
Results for the fourth quarter of 2013 include:
- Same-restaurant sales decreased 3.1% at Company-owned Ruby Tuesday restaurants and decreased 5.1% at domestic Ruby Tuesday franchise restaurants
- Net loss from continuing operations of $27.0 million, or net income from continuing operations excluding special items of $7.0 million (see Non-GAAP reconciliation). This compares to the prior-year net loss from continuing operations of $6.7 million, or net income from continuing operations excluding special items of $12.1 million. Included in the special items for the fourth quarter are non-cash pre-tax charges of $9.0 million related to the full impairment of the Lime Fresh goodwill, non-cash pre-tax charges of $5.0 million related to the partial impairment of the Lime Fresh trademark, and $20.1 million related to a valuation allowance on the Company's deferred tax assets, including tax credits and net operating loss carry forwards, and other items. See Non-GAAP reconciliation and Other Items discussion for additional detail.
- Diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.44, or diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items of $0.12, compared to diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.10 for the prior year, or diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items of $0.19
Results for the 2013 fiscal year include:
- Total revenue decreased 4.6% from the prior year, primarily due to the 53rd week in the prior year, a same-restaurant sales decrease of 1.0% at Company-owned Ruby Tuesday restaurants, and eight fewer Ruby Tuesday restaurants year over year
- Same-restaurant sales decreased 2.1% at domestic franchise Ruby Tuesday restaurants
- Net loss from continuing operations of $23.4 million, or net income from continuing operations excluding special items of $13.9 million (see Non-GAAP reconciliation). This compares to the prior-year net income from continuing operations of $3.5 million, or net income from continuing operations excluding special items of $29.3 million.
- Diluted loss per share from continuing operations of $0.38, or diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items of $0.23, compared to diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.06 for the prior year, or diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding special items of $0.46
- Total capital expenditures were $37.1 million
- Exited non-core concepts including Marlin & Ray's, Truffles Grill, and Wok Hay in order to focus on the repositioning efforts and traffic-building initiatives for the core Ruby Tuesday brand
- Opened nine Lime Fresh restaurants and closed six Company-owned Ruby Tuesday restaurants
- Revised strategic approach to the growth and execution of our Lime Fresh concept, leading to the closure of four of our initial internally-developed Lime Fresh restaurants, two of which closed during the fourth quarter, which weren't meeting expectations and were dilutive to the concept's performance
- Closed sale leaseback transactions on 24 restaurants during the year which generated $54.4 million of gross proceeds, including six transactions representing $13.6 million of gross proceeds in the fourth quarter. We have closed three additional sale leaseback transactions subsequent to the end of the year, generating an incremental $5.9 million of gross proceeds. We have no plans at this time to pursue additional sale leaseback transactions.
- Repurchased 4.1 million shares of common stock for $30.1 million, with no repurchases in the fourth quarter
- Repurchased $15.0 million of high yield bonds at a slight discount to par, inclusive of $3.5 million of high yield bond repurchases in the fourth quarter. Subsequent to the end of the year, we paid off $9.1 million of mortgage debt.
- Maintained a strong cash position at the end of the fourth quarter of $52.9 million, compared to $48.2 million of cash on hand at the end of the prior year
JJ Buettgen, President and CEO, commented, "Fiscal 2013 was a transitional year for Ruby Tuesday as we made a number of strategic decisions and investments which will strengthen our Company longer-term. We exited our non-core concepts; significantly improved the strength of our senior management team by adding a new VP of Culinary and Beverage, a new SVP of Finance, a new SVP/Chief Development Officer, and most recently a new President Ruby Tuesday concept/Chief Operations Officer; and made significant progress on our strategy and plans to transform Ruby Tuesday into a more broadly appealing, vibrant, and energetic brand. While we are disappointed with our financial results for the fourth quarter and the year, we are confident and excited about our future and the changes we are making to the Ruby Tuesday brand. Our brand transformation initiatives include significant enhancements to our menu, service, atmosphere, and marketing. Although we are in the initial stages of our brand transformation efforts, we made meaningful progress during the quarter and as we execute on these plans, we are confident that over time we will realize improvements in our guest counts, same-restaurant sales, and profitability.

Brenner resigns his post as EDC chairman
Date: May 4, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
Longboat Key resident David Brenner resigned his post as chairman of the Longboat Key, Lido Key, St. Armands Key Chamber of Commerce's Economic Development Council Friday, May 1, according to interim chamber president Tom Aposporos.
Brenner confirmed the resignation Monday but declined further comment.
Members of the commission have expressed their dissatisfaction with Brenner's chamber post, which they believe conflicts with his post as chairman of the town's Planning and Zoning Board.
Brenner is hoping to be re-appointed to another three-year term on the planning board. Brenner's P&Z board term expires May 19.
It's expected that Brenner vacated his EDC post in anticipation of tonight's 7 p.m. Longboat Key Town Commission regular meeting.
Brenner was the first chairman of the chamber's Economic Development Council, which was formed in February 2008. A replacement for Brenner has not been named.

Interval International Adds Port Chambly Vacation Club In Mauritius To Global Vacation Exchange Network
Interval International, a prominent worldwide provider of vacation services and an operating business of Interval Leisure Group (Nasdaq: IILG), announced the affiliation of Port Chambly Vacation Club. The resort is located on the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean off the south eastern coast of Africa. Port Chambly's 44 fractional ownership residences are part of a multi-use resort village that includes a boutique hotel and Mediterranean-style town square.
"Port Chambly Vacation Club is the first shared ownership property that we have affiliated in this popular Indian Ocean holiday destination — and one of the most unique in our network," said Darren Ettridge, Interval's senior vice president of resort sales and business development for Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia. "The resort is tucked into a century-old coconut plantation on the Tombeau River and is much like a little Venice, where residents and guests get around in small boats or via the shuttle service."
On the island's north coast, the village of Port Chambly is encircled by over a mile of stone fence and is a step back to the "Old World." Stone patios, narrow alleyways, and small bridges straddle a maze of canals reminiscent of picturesque villages in Italy and the south of France. Its residents gravitate to the Place du Campanile, the village square with its traditional Mediterranean bell tower that overlooks the villas set in a lush landscape. Where the river canals join to meet the turquoise Indian Ocean, visitors can shop, enjoy regional Italian cuisine, and listen to live jazz.
Water laps at the shore of one- , two- and three-bedroom residences of Port Chambly Vacation Club situated on winding canals throughout the complex. Furnished with terracotta tile and natural wood and decorated in Moroccan style, the air-conditioned units include full kitchens, as well as a flat screen satellite TV and internet access.

Seekers #6: Spirits in the Stars (Hardcover)
Not currently in the store – Usually ships in 1-5 days
On the unforgiving Arctic Ice . . .
United once again, Toklo, Lusa, Kallik, and Ujurak continue across the ice. Conditions are harsh and especially treacherous for the black bear and grizzly bears who are not used to the brutal cold, never-ending snow, and limited food. But the bears are certain now that they're on the right course, and with the stars still guiding them, they push forward.
When they reach land at last, the group is overjoyed, but something is not right. The bears who live here are ill. What's wrong with them? What can the foursome do to help? Is aiding these strangers the ultimate goal of their quest? Ujurak just might hold the key to their mission in his paws, yet it's Lusa the new bears are especially interested in.
Three young cubs, each from different backgrounds, and their mysterious shape-shifting companion have grown up together in their long and dangerous journey to save the wild. Now, when their task appears more difficult than ever, the bears must make a critical decision . . . and for one bear the path ends here.

Rookie Blue
Summer is almost here!
On Thursday, ABC announced its summer schedule, which will kick off Thursday, May 9 with the premiere of Wipeout (8/7c). Other returning shows will come later in the month, with Rookie Blue kicking off on Thursday, May 23 (10/9c) and The Bachelorette debuting in a special time period on Monday, May 20 (9/8c).

Poppy Montgomery
CBS is serious about tackling broadcast TV's summer problem, and to prove it, the network is hauling out two big names: Steven Spielberg and Stephen King.
The Steves are behind the upcoming 13-episode CBS summer series Under the Dome, based on King's best-selling thriller about a New England town that becomes sealed off from the rest of the world.

One Direction
A few quick thoughts about tonight's TV playlist:
You know the Obama campaign has to be counting on the youth demographic to once again "rock the vote," as they used to say, so the timing is curious for MTV's annual Video Music Awards extravaganza from L.A.'s Staples Center to encroach on the climactic night of the Democratic National Convention from Charlotte, where President Obama's speech is the main event.
Maybe there will be cutaways? At any rate...

Modern Family
If the stars and negotiations align, Modern Family should continue as planned.
"I expect the season to start on time," ABC chief Paul Lee told reporters at the Television Critics Association fall TV previews on Friday. "We're in the middle of negotiations. We're hopeful and optimistic to resolve it."
ABC has renewed Rookie Blue for a fourth season, the network announced on Tuesday.
Season 3 of the cop drama, which stars Missy Peregrym and Gregory Smith, premiered to 6 million viewers last month. Its most recent telecast garnered 5. 5 million viewers.
Check out photos from Rookie Blue
Saving Hope
A few years ago, the broadcast networks finally woke up from their summer slumber and realized they'd ceded too much ground during the warmer months. Cable was winning the battle for the hearts and eyes of summer TV viewers by offering heavily promoted scripted fare — and the networks were mostly in rerun hell. "People got used to going away from the broadcasters in the summer," says The CW president Mark Pedowitz. "Now you're dealing with viewing patterns and trying to change them."

William Shatner and Gregory Smith
OK, when did Rookie Blue get so good?!
ABC's Canadian cop show returned last night and we gotta say, this thing deserves more than a summer fill-in slot. It's like Grey's with a badge and less Shonda-isms.
For its third-season premiere, the series — about recent police-academy graduates cracking crimes and yeah, hooking up — trotted out William Shatner for a guest spot as a drunk driver who winds up leading the 15 Division to a twisted kidnapping case. Being Shatner, there was a fair share of over-the-top dramatics, but the frequent flares of comedy, and the super-likable ensemble (particularly Missy Peregrym and Gregory Smith) more than made up for those moments. Oh, and the closing scene with his character's recently recovered granddaughter was a total eye-wetter. We are not ashamed to admit that.
The Glass House
ABC is already getting into the singing competition game with this summer's Duets, and now it's taking on CBS' long-running Big Brother as well. The network has partnered with a former Big Brother producer to build The Glass House, which will air this summer.

BOSTON, Dec. 23, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Scientists at the University of Tokyo have discovered that specific gut-dwelling bacteria control key immune cells that combat allergies and autoimmune diseases. The paper describing these findings was published in today's issue of the journal Science, and technology originating from the work is being advanced by start-up Vedanta Biosciences.
Dr. Kenya Honda and colleagues initially showed that mice raised in sterile conditions had deficient levels of regulatory T cells in their colon compared to mice colonized with microbes. "Regulatory T cells are the peace-keepers of the immune system," says Dr. Alexander Rudensky, tri-institutional Professor at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Institute, the Rockefeller University, and Cornell University, whose previous work helped describe this specialized subset of T cells. "When these cells are missing, the body has trouble putting the brakes on excessive immune responses."
The team of researchers led by Honda then zeroed in on a subset of gut microbes belonging to the Clostridia class that were responsible for triggering production of regulatory T cells. Feeding these "Good Clostridia" to mice prevented the development of allergies and inflammatory bowel disease. "For millions of years, we have co-evolved with our gut microbes, communicating in an ancient language that may hold critical clues about how autoimmune and infectious diseases develop," said Dr. Ruslan Medzhitov, Professor of Immunobiology at Yale, who authored pioneering studies of the innate immune system. "Researchers like Dr. Honda are making important strides to begin decoding this complex language."
This newly understood beneficial role of certain species of Clostridia may be reminiscent of the opposite effects on health of "good" and "bad" cholesterol. While some species are harmful pathogens, such as C. difficile, many other Clo

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

I thought since we have a who's brewing this weekend and similar threads I would post up a thread that revolves around the "doom and gloom" of the winter solstice of 2012 aka "The end of the world/mayan calandar". We have all heard about it but is anyone actually planning any beer happenings around it?
Please feel free to post up any serious or just for fun ideas. Since we will only get 1 shot at this we may as well be ready for it! If I would have been thinking, I would have made a brew for the big "Rapture of 2011" but for whatever reason I did not...
I am planning to brew up a beer to age to be ready for "The end". It seems like an epic task but I am really leaning towards some sort of imperial brew that will be tasty on the solstice. I am leaning towards a whiskey barrel aged IIPA for the event but one that is based more on a wee heavy than a pale ale. I may not have time for a session beer...lol.
I would also like to have a brew day on that Friday. I am thinking possibly some sort of tribute to the Mayan culture? I really have not given it much thought yet. When I get my recipe worked out I will post back to this thread.
What are your thoughts plans?
Belikin claims to be Mayan temple beer, but since what we know as a lager involves a yeast that evolved about 400 years ago, it's just PR/BS.
If you want something that might be close to original, try Chicha, where the traditional method involves the maize being chewed and then spit into a pot or bowl.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"

Hmm a cool home brew comp AND a base for a recipe... Flaked corn, cocoa nibs and possibbly some sort of pepper... THANKS!
You might want to skip the chewing part and use alpha enzyme.
So the "end of the world" is actually my birthday next year. LOL. Therefore, I absolutely plan to put something awesome together for it.
I have two main plans for the event:
1) A beer that I will be brewing sometime in January/February that I will age until 12/21/12, probably either a Belgian Quad or an IIPA. I'm leaning towards the Quad as I don't know that I would have the patience to let an IIPA sit that long!
2) I'm brewing next year on my birthday, something that befits the day. As I'm thinking Armaggedon, I'll probably go for some sort of fiery red ale, maybe add some chili's to it in some way. Something bold that spits in the face of the impending DOOM!!!
I'm planning on brewing with propane that day. The peak solar flares are going to knock the electrical grid out. Anyone that has an electric system is gonna be SOL.
You guys might want to either keg them up or put them in champagne bottles, so they're less likely to break on the ark.
Don't know about the Mayans, but the Aztecs used to eat a lot of quinoa which I'd have thought you'd be able to incorporate pretty easily.

HTML5 Game Licensing Now Available At Novel Games
HONG KONG, July 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Novel Games, the world's leading developer of licensable games, proudly announced today that HTML5 game licensing is now available. They now offer about 30 games in HTML5 format, and they are working to port all 350+ games to support HTML5, which is expected to be complete by the end of this year.
HTML5, the latest technology of the Internet, is the standard of the industry and a means of multimedia delivery on the web. All HTML5 games from Novel Games can run in all major web browsers for desktop computers, iPhones, iPads, as well as Android cell phones and tablets. Other types of game licenses now offered by Novel Games include Flash, Java and Android, while iOS native app licensing will also be available in the coming future.
"For many years, Flash has been one of the most popular formats of web games. However, it could only run in Android devices in the past and is now no longer supported," said Peter Lee, CEO of Novel Games. "On the other hand, HTML5 is designed to enable multimedia and rich graphical presentations. It can run in all major web browsers including those in mobile devices, and in this way, HTML5 has successfully overcome the mobility limitation of Flash." The launch of HTML5 game licensing at Novel Games, according to Lee, is one of their most significant events this year as it marks a momentous milestone in the development of the company.
Novel Games is the market leader in the field of game licensing, and is also the only major developer in the world to offer licenses of over 350 games in desktop and mobile platforms.

the qualicy of this product is amazing. My wife and I have a complete set of this cookware as well as additional pieces made by the same company. I would recommend this product to others. It heats evenly and quickly and all at a temperature lower than people think. We use a ceramic top range and have absolutely no problems with these products.
A good small sauce pot is a must for every cook. I use it on a regular basis and think that the quality is excellent and that it will last. Nothing sticks even gooey chocolate or white sauces. Also great for heating up just a small portion of food if I am alone. This piece is thicker than others in this series but is can't tell a difference.
Great little sauce pan for the price, heats quickly and evenly.

I bought 2 of these little pots- one for me and one for my son. My other pans rock on my new stovetop, so I gave this little Calphalon a try. Sturdy, comfortable handle, quick to clean up & best of all no rocking. I washed it by hand after making steel cut oats and they can be a bit messy. I used a nylon scrub pad as it didn't just wipe out like shown in some ads. The cheese sauce did wipe out with the dishcloth. The glass lid is nice; however, condensation makes it so you can't see into the pot very well anyway so not a big selling point for me. I like that the pots/pans can be purchased separately.
It is almost too small for most things. As part of a set it's great as you have the other pans for other things. It is really too small even for making sauces for more than 2 people. It has been relegated to boiling peas. a 1½Qt would be great, but they don't do it.
I would have order the 2 and 3 qt Unison Sauce Pans but they were not on sale and cost too much. One thing I love about this product is that it is dishwasher proof and that is a plus with me and my husband.
I am a lifetime Calphalon customer. In my opinion there cookware is an outstanding product. Also the most important thing about Calphalon is their commitment to customer satisfaction, and standing behind their products. Regards a very satisfied customer

Lacy paves way, Rodgers makes plays you can't believe

CBS and Showtime's Boomer Esiason spoke to the Q about Week 5's games.
We wonder what is going on in the NFL this seasons and take a look at the rest of Week 4's storylines.
The Jaguars and Vikings' rookie QBs got their first taste of NFL action in Week 3. We evaluate the two first-round picks' performances.
Already, there have been major changes to the NFL's starting quarterback rotation. What's in store for the future?
The Vikings suddenly have to move on without Adrian Peterson. But that may have been the plan all along.
Cassel makes the most of limited work, while Bridgewater made a costly mistake.
A quarterback battle, some promising second-stringers and Michael Sam's NFL debut highlight the night.

The practices were in shorts, but here are four takeaways from NFL minicamps.
With training camps coming up, here are the biggest positional battles to watch.
Teddy Bridgewater may have been the most NFL ready quarterback prospect in this year's draft class, but the Vikings aren't an ideal scheme fit for the undersized signal caller.
Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said rookie quarterback Teddy Bridgewater will get first-team reps.
The NFL is still very much a passing league. Here's how the draft demonstrated that: a look into why certain positions were overlooked.
Weeks before the Minnesota Vikings traded back into the first round to draft Teddy Bridgewater on Thursday night, they brought the Louisville quarterback in for an extra physical to check out an issue with his heart.
Teddy Bridgewater slid to the last pick of the first round, but it should work in his favor after falling into a great situation with the Minnesota Vikings.
Over three hours passed from the start of the NFL draft before Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater finally heard his name called.
Today, top NFL prospects will finally learn where they'll call home as professional football players. Before that, the Q takes one last stab at projecting the first round of the 2014 NFL draft. Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel is the only quarterback selected in the Top 15.
No player's stock has plummeted with more force than Teddy Bridgewater, who was once considered available QB and is now seen by most experts as a second-day pick. But the latest Q mock draft shows the Louisville passer making an intriguing leap.

Yes, I am still here. Tracking food. Tracking fitness. What I am still bad about is keeping up with blogs, groups and message boards. I don't get to play on the computer all that much these days. As such, it's not easy to Spark via phone except to track, which is actually easier -- what with the nifty scan barcode" feature.
I am going to set a totally manageable goal to blog here once a week. That I can do. So, Sparkfriends, leave me comments, check in on me, say hi, tell me what's new. I love it when you do. I see and read your comments even if I am slow in responding.
Right now, I am stealing some Spark time while baby naps. This week, I have been better about staying within my calorie range. Not too great with the fitness. I've GOTTA figure out how to survive without the gym. It's been too cold to walk and I have only done my Jillian DVD once this week. GAH!
Otherwise, this is a pretty boring blog. I'm not going to bring up the election. (Wait, I just did!) Too much ugly bickering on Facebook. But that is really all that has been interesting this week. So with that, I will sign off till next time.
Well, HELLO, to anyone who is still subscribed to read my blogs. Wow, it has been almost a year and a half since I last posted a blog. Where on earth did the time go? So much has happened since I last blogged! The most exciting thing has been the birth of my second child in June 2012. He is beautiful and sweet and amazing and is the love of my life, along with my 3 YO daughter, and DH of course. Given how big a part of my life Spark has been, I cannot believe that I went through my entire pregnancy without writing a single blog. In contrast, when I was pregnant with DD, I blogged all the time.
I really have no good reason for being MIA for so long, other than life getting in the way. There has been a lot going on this year. This summer we also sold our house, and are currently "homeless." Not truly HOMELESS, but staying with family until we decide where our next move should be. This has been very stressful. We have outgrown the the house and wanted to sell it, but at the same time it feels surreal not having a house to call our own after 10 years of home ownership. So...lots of change. And I don't do well with change. Hence, many chocolate chip cookies have been consumed.
I gained almost 30 pounds this pregnancy. Currently, I have 15 pounds to lose to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and another 5 to get back to my original goal weight. I am going to work hard to get back to that number, but at this point I am not sure if it is a weight that will be sustainable for me. TIme will tell, but if it is not, I will let my body choose its happy weight and accept it. I definitely do need to lose the 15 pounds. The last 5? Well, we shall see. These are, what Jillian would call, the "vanity pounds."
Another BIG change is that I no longer have a gym membership. We stopped it just before my son was born because I knew I would not be allowed to work out for 6 weeks afterward, then we would be moving. This has been *very* hard for me to adjust to. I do a lot of walking, but I just don't think I am pushing myself, working hard enough and burning enough calories by walking alone. I do have DVDs at home but it is just not easy with small kids around. At the gym, I was able to take advantage of the child care and have this time to myself. And truthfully, I just do not enjoy the DVDs as much as I enjoy classes. Simply being inside the gym and having other people around who are also working out, even if I do not speak with anyone, makes my workouts more enjoyable. I am a social exerciser and miss the gym so very much, as well as the wonderful ladies in the Kids Zone who watched my daughter when I would bring her to the gym.
Well, it is good to be back here. I hope to reconnect with old Sparkfriends and make new ones. On a sad note that brought me to tears, when I first came back on here earlier this week, I found out that a dear Sparkfriend passed away in August. :( I went to her page to see how she was doing and saw all the messages of her passing. She was a beautiful person and a true inspiration. I have been thinking of her every day. RIP Nicole (NICOLE12-01). I will miss you.
Last week was a tough week. Without going into all the details, I'll just say that my body failed me. Or, quite possibly, I failed it. I'll never know, but more than likely it was a combination of both.
All last week, I took a break from working out, except for walks (I feel OK with that) and ate with reckless abandon (NOT OK with that). I simply did not care what I ate, and most of it was junk. I took a break from tracking my food, which is also OK at times, but in combination with not paying attention to what I am putting in my mouth at all, it spells disaster.
As for the exercise, I was right in the middle of a super cool challenge on my Amazing Race Spark team and had to drop out. One of the members created our own little Amazing Race, in which our fitness minutes got us to our next clues and destinations, and we had fun challenges along the way. I really hope I have the chance for a do-over on that!
Today I am deciding to once again give my body the love and respect it deserves. The more I take care of it, the better I feel. Eating crap does NOT make me feel good for more than the time it takes to swallow it. Taking a vacation from the gym makes me feel sluggish, moody and out of sorts. When being fit and healthy is a priority in my life, I feel healthy and strong, like I can accomplish anything. I want that feeling back. And it starts with loving and respecting my body.
When I was pregnant I wrote a blog on this topic. I decided to revisit and reread it as a reminder of what my body can accomplish.
Breakfast is tracked, and I am off to the gym this morning.
My gym recently added TRX suspension training. It's pretty cool and a great workout for the core and upper body, especially. For anyone who is curious what it is, here is a YouTube video (it will explain it better than I can).
Anyway...as I mentioned, this is new at my gym. They are doing demos right now to raise interest and let people know it is available. When I dropped my little one off in the kids area, the instructor was in there recruiting people so I decided to check it out. I had seen it before at another area gym and have been kind of intrigued by it ever since but never tried it.
I had fun trying it, but unfortunately, it is something you have to pay extra for - $99 or more, depending on which package of classes you buy. This irks me because I think as members we pay enough already, and I told the instructor that at the end of the session when she tried to get us to buy a package. I told her I would gladly do it if it were free. :)
Oh well! Tomorrow is is back to same old, same old. I do need to find something new to do to keep me out of an exercise rut.
When I am at the gym and not taking a fitness class, I like to listen to Jillian Michaels' podcast to pass the time on the machines. Recently she had Bob Harper on the show, which was cool! They said something to a caller that really kind of hit me upside the head: One slice of pizza is an hour at the gym. Of course; a slice of pizza is around 400 calories. But when they put it in that context, it makes so much sense why so many of us are struggling and why weight loss can be such a slow process. I often make this mistake. I work my butt off at the gym, then later in the day I will have something so small and high-calorie, such as a couple of cookies, and there go all those calories I saved. I've been at this for a while, so I know I should choose foods that give me more bang for my calorie buck, even (or especially) if I am in maintenance mode when it seems easier to slack on the eating somewhat. This was a good reminder to eat mindfully.

Just chiming in to agree. Kicked the tube habit a couple years ago. I don't miss it, and like you, I can't believe the garbage programming that people describe to me. I'd like to record them talking about the shows and play it back for them at a later date; it sounds incredibly stupid.
