That's awesome! I've never heard of that either, but even if the cause doesn't especially affect you, I think these events importantly remind us just to think of others! Sounds like you have great neighbors :)

I would murder those waffles. I LOVEY LOVEY LOVE cheesecake! Also, this reminded me, did anyone thing it was weird that Oxygen Magazine came out with a book that is a ripoff of this guy's book? Theirs is called "Pick this, kick that" and it looks exactly like "eat this, not that." Seems...

Actually, assuming you are giving them a whole grain cereal, you might want to reconsider cutting that out of their diet. Children need about twice as many nutrients (vitamins and minerals) as adults, relative to body weight (this decreases as they age). Most children won't get anywhere near...

Also wanted to mention that it is the rainy season for all of latin america, so it will rain in the afternoons even where there are no hurricanes. It should be winding down at the end of Sept, but plan to hit the beaches/do activities in the morning in case it rains you out in the afternoon.

I went to Costa Rica last year and we LOVED the place we stayed. First keep in mind that the international airport is 3 hours from the beach. So you have to rent and drive (which a lot of people do) or take a puddle jumper (which we did). We stayed at Buena Vista Villas -...

I don't know specifically about cruises, I've never taken one. I do travel a lot and using a travel agent is a crap shoot. Sometimes they get much better deals, sometimes you can do better online. My husband works for a hotel company and their internal agent sometimes trounces what I find...

I just started STS for the first time also. I'm doing it with my husband (and I smoked him on the pushups which was sort of fun >:) ) I was also disappointed about not being more sore, but since we are starting with lower weight, maybe that will come on the next mesocycles? I also wonder...

The NYT has an article today on how dramatically breast support affects running stride - http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/08/18/phys-ed-the-right-kind-of-sports-bra/?partner=rss&emc=rss "the most effective style of sports bra, particularly for women who wear a D-cup bra or larger, does not...

I have really been thinking about this. In the past few weeks, 1500 or so dead in Pakistan, 1100 in China and 5,000 dead in Russia from the heatwave there. That's 8,000 people in a couple of weeks in just 3 incidents. It's amazing the scale of tragedy in the rest of the world, compared to...

I would really make a note of what activities you've done and your body's reaction and bring it to your doctor. Exercise can help manage both types of arthritis, but there are lots of personal factors to consider when selecting frequency/intensity/type of activity. Your doctor can tell you if...

I use the gym style workouts when I come back from an injury or vacation. I like that they're basic. Not a lot of thinking but I get good overall workouts to get back into things. I LOVE the pyramids but I find those more challenging so they're usually not my first choice when starting back...

Wow, when you originally posted that you hated it, my imagination was running wild. I think that's really lovely. I hope you come to like it (or find some "edit" that works)!

My dad has a cat with this same issue. He was given cortisone shots every year or so for most of his life. He didn't develop diabetes (or any side-effects) but cortisone is associated with that risk. If you can't find something to treat the poor little guy, the cortisone may be worth it. It's...

Cool. I love finding new fitness sites. Yesterday I discovered PeerTrainer (http://www.peertrainer.com/) which has tons of support groups. Thanks for the tip!

She's a beauty. I wonder if she won't come to love that birthmark. It's very artistically placed. It makes me think of a pretty superhero! Oh, I voted, too!

I have been having this same problem. I only get 4 English news stations (BBC, Fox, CNN and Headline News). Fox is out for me too. We typically watch CNN or BBC but I feel like it's 90% human interest stories. They are going on and on about some dog that plays soccer, meanwhile the real news...

There's nothing inherently wrong with red meat. If it is lean, it's fine to eat a few times a week (and contains many vitamins and minerals). Any more often than 3x per week and it might push other foods out of your diet (like fish/poultry/whole grains). I saw some evidence recently that red...

I wore two for years and years until just a few months ago. I found a style by Champion at Target. It is the one with 16% spandex instead of 5%. That made a huge difference. The material is really not very stretchy (I know it sounds backwards) and holds them squashed against my chest. I'm a...

I'm studying for a masters and just finished my first nutrition class. Our final projects were reviews of consumer diets. I didn't do the Blood Type one, but I saw the presentation. It was the only diet (that was presented) that had no clinical trials or peer-reviewed research. All of the...

I don't even check to see what the workouts are anymore, I just get that little credit card out and do the deed. If it's from Cathe, I know I'm going to love it!
