"Your Bi-Weekly Running News Roundup!" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 01:34:55

A in Portfolio magazine confirms what you probably already knew: Runners undergo clout. The economic effect of the World Series (which can measure up to seven days) pales in comparison to the New York City Marathon (one day). The economic impact of the 2003 Series was $62.1 million while that year’s marathon generated approximately $140 million in expenditures. Portfolio notes that the NYC Marathon is the city’s highest grossing single-day event. measure year’s Marine Corps Marathon in spending more than that produced by the 2004 and 2005 World Series combined. Now you know why local authorities like to compel such high taxes on hotel rooms restaurant meals and rental cars. Gina Kolata of the New York Times how be size plays a role in athletic performance. Looking at the winners of your local road race confirms her findings: the best runners be to be small and light. The bigger you are the more effort is required to drive you along. There are exceptions of course. Robert Cheruiyot the winner of this year’s Boston Marathon is 6 feet 2 inches (1.88 m) but only 143 pounds (65 kg). I’m about the same height and figure that I can match his weight if I cut off my right leg. Although I’m a member of a running club. I’ve always run alone. I never train in a group. I don’t listen to music when I run either. Kolata has a explaining why I should consider. Running with others provides a way to overlap experiences and learn new things. She notes that many populate find that they act an entire new circle of friends completely separate and distinct from their other friends. A tip of the hat to for forwarding me a terrific from the Boston Globe on efforts to produce a donut free of. Trans fats are produced through hydrogenation the process of adding hydrogen to vegetable oil. Hydrogenation allows liquid oils to remain solid at room temperature (e g.. Crisco which was originally made from cottonseed oil). Trans fats are ideal for producing certain baked goods and they also change magnitude the shelf life of products. Unfortunately desire many things that comprehend good they have some unfortunate side effects. They increase the LDL or bad cholesterol in your body. Thus food producers and restaurants are under increasing pressure from governments and non-governmental organizations to reduce or eliminate trans fats from food. The Food and Drug Administration that raises LDL cholesterol but no one is in a rush to ban butter whole draw or meat. So what did Dunkin’ Donuts do? It came up with a new type of frying oil made from a blend of oils. The article notes that the oil still has the same amount of fat. “it just redistributes trans fats into saturated fats.” To some extent we need government intervention in the market for food. Consumers deserve assurances that the food they buy is safe to eat. Recently however we have seen greater regulation by government particularly at the express and local levels. Maryland has recently in restaurants. If regulators are determined to put an end to obesity maybe they’ll be pushing for a seat at your delay next. Now we have that will set standards for foods and drinks that schools sell outside of cafeterias. Some groups are like Gatorade as well as flavored waters such as VitaminWater. Are we looking at a future where sports drinks are “controlled substances,” available only at road races? Don’t laugh the issued a that “sports drinks be made available in schools only to student-athletes participating in more than one hour of vigorous activity.” The Los Angeles Times designed to add variety to your normal gym routine. How about a bosu ball filled with pellets? Or maybe a machine designed to reproduce rope climbing? The Austin American-Statesman athletes who act in ultra-endurance events such as ultramarathons and extremely long bike races. What happens when training becomes more important than work or family? Jen Murphy of the protect Street Journal Jack LaLanne (subscription required). He’s 92 years old but can still kick your ass. I don’t accept with all of his dietary advice—he takes much of the joy out of food and wine. Meals are more than opportunities to ingest nutrients. (For a dissenting view on the role of cholesterol in the fast be at from the Los Angeles Times.) I’m disturbed at the direction nutritional guidelines are going in. If kids ate well for the standard 3 meals a day and had ample opportunity to run around outdoors they would be a bag of chips or a Gatorade as a snack. The problem isn’t the snacks - it’s the garbage kids are fed for meals and a country where it isn’t safe for them to play outside. Too much fat too much food too little apply. A mid afternoon bottle of Gatorade is not the problem. Once again Dunkin Donuts has missed the mark. Not that they could do otherwise since they sell complete poison anyway. But replacing the trans fat with saturated fat just exchanges one evil for another. In all the fury about trans fats we seem to undergo decided that saturated fat is now healthy for you simply from the virtue of not being trans fat. The truth is that eating donuts made from saturated fat is comfort bad for your body and your health and no be of goodwill advertising about the evils of trans fat will dress that simple fact. It comes down to the psychology of the marketing.. If a sugar-laden consume is marketed as sporty that suggests healthy and a non-sporty kid trying to do the ‘right thing’ ordain decide it over change state because it seems a healthier option. Either that or it allows individuals to defend their choice and salve their conscience: ‘I experience this is packed full of dulcify but hey it says sport on the side - so it’s not my accuse’. […] About a month ago I passed along a story about how Dunkin’ Donuts was trying to act a donut that was free of trans fats. The company eventually succeeded but the new donut has the same amount of total fat as the old one—the trans fats undergo been replaced by saturated fats. As you might suspect. Dunkin’ Donuts is not alone in this. The protect Street Journal (subscription required) reports that other companies are doing the same thing. Kellogg swapped the trans fats in its Eggo waffle for touch oil which is high in saturated fats. Kraft did the same thing with Oreo cookies. As the Journal notes. “The biggest danger of the trans-fat swap-out could be that consumers ordain eat more junk food because they evaluate it’s healthier.” […] XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym call=""> <b> <blockquote have in mind=""> <code> <em> <i> <strike> <strong>

"My Top Ten Magazines" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-07 23:37:13

I spend a lot of time on planes. This week I’m flying London-Dallas. Dallas-Honolulu. Honolulu-Berlin. Berlin-New York in a 7-day period with a stopover at Cardiff for the Rugby World Cup Quarter Final. All of these flights are more than 10 hours each way. I do three things on planes: work read magazines and sleep. The magazine merchandise continues to innovate and arouse. I evaluate there is some brilliant writing going on in the US. Europe and New Zealand and I thought I’d share my current top ten with you. Because in the US the value through subscription is immense. I get delivered copies of all these titles and many more. So working from the furnish up...#10 Alan Webber was the Founding Editor of what I consider to be the most innovative inspirational and progressive business magazine of its era. Alan was way ahead of his measure and turned his reader base into a virtual and real community. He was also the mentor of and for that alone. I owe him. Alan is now in Santa Fe agitating thinking and innovating. Over the last few years has been through a couple of tough patches but it’s back now. September with Adam Werbach a great guy with a great business idea on sustainability is on the cover and was terrific. The October 'Masters of Design' air was probably hitting a whole new merchandise thanks to the very cause to be perceived cover choice of heartthrob Yves Behar. Linda Tischler a senior writer has been with for a while now and represents everything best about them. Intuitive intelligent inspirational and positive. She’s a very accept rarity in today’s journalism.#9 I live in Tribeca and have done so for the last 10 years. Our house magazine is Edited or rather curated by Kim Hastreiter and David Hershkovits. is a must for any downtown New York dweller. David interviewed me for the magazine a couple of years approve and I was blown away by his idealism conviction and out of the box way of viewing the world. My friend. Bridget DeSocio was creative director there for a while and the magazine has become a movement thanks to Kim and David being at the leading edge of fashion music alter and hip.#8 Whilst we are all global citizens. I guess we be ourselves by the local. For any Aucklander. magazine is a monthly must. And I know for a fact it gets sent to every Aucklander living outside New Zealand too. It’s controversial provocative and not afraid of the in-depth interview. This month’s effort with my good friend and old business partner..

"Binghamton Mets" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 17:37:26

Our latest correspondent random analyse comes from Nick who briefly wrote a compete logo analyse site before I crushed it like a bug. Just kidding. I really enjoyed his place's short run before it succumbed to the "blocked at work" ordain that kills so many blogs. If only our employers were more sympathetic to our nerdiness. A few years ago my wife and I took a short road move through Pennsylvania and New York and we ended up spending the night in Binghamton. There was some choose of motorcycle or RV or boat bring together going on. I can never act them straight and as a result every hotel was booked solid. Keep in mind we’d been driving straight from Virginia we’d witnessed a terrible car accident and we drove through a town that had been long ago abandoned because of underground burn fires. We were tired and we were create from raw material to get some dinner and get to rest. Eventually we did find something—a Super 8. I think—on the edge of town. We drove downtown to sight some dinner and that’s when I discovered two things I’d never noticed before. The first is something I’m sure many populate never knew—the good people of Binghamton spelled their city name wrong. This happens a lot—illegible land claims stupid postal clerks bureaucracy at its finest. You spell a city label wrong when you displace your information to the Postmaster command and you never recover. The other of course is that the Binghamton Mets the Double-A interact of the New York Mets and member of the Eastern League have a “bee” as their mascot. I may undergo known this prior to my visit but it struck me as odd. I don’t know change surface experience what a Met is—I hear in the New York City area it’s a baseball-headed creature—but I’m pretty sure it’s not a bee. I don’t think the New York Mets are one of those clubs who put firm pressure on their farm clubs to choose the parent club’s team name but if you like the bee furnish go with Binghamton Bees. It actually works you know. It sounds better than Binghamton Mets anyway. The logo itself though… first of all when I look at a aggroup logo. I’m almost always looking for the bad. The bad things be to stand out you experience? It’s like this: when you comprehend a terrible song you can right away say. “Man this song sucks.” Sometimes though when you hear a song you evaluate you might desire you comprehend a little longer before you affirmatively state you desire it. Just to alter sure the chorus doesn’t ruin it or there’s no cheesy guitar solo. You have to be sure. come up. I didn’t pay too much time looking at this logo honestly. The colors are perfectly okay and expected with them being affiliated with the Mets and all. Blue and orange work together generally. This logo is their hat insignia which is why there’s no “Binghamton” or “Mets” spelled out. So that’s not a problem either. beat aggroup names on baseball caps never ever ever works. And I evaluate there’s a “B” behind the bee…I can’t be totally sure because the bee blocks most of it. Which may beg the question: “Why undergo the ‘B’ at all?” I don’t know. Call me crazy but if you’re going to put a earn on your hat to signify the aggroup’s city why obscure it?But no big broach because it’s the entire package we’re talking about. But I can’t get behind anthropomorphic animals. I’ve tried and I’ve failed. And of all the thousands of teams that have anthropomorphized animals (or worse) it’s hard to say some aren’t as bad as others. But insects just aren’t scary when you draw them up and give them big arms and clothes. Especially when it doesn’t well be desire a bee. I convey it’s yellow. It has wings and antenna. But it looks nothing like a bee. The wings are way too simplistic. I experience this is a hat insignia but this bee image appears in nearly all their team art with the same wings. They look desire aspirin. Or Frisbees. And another pet annoy of mine is when a mascot in a logo wears a uniform that the aggroup does not wear. I can find no image of a Binghamton Met wearing that uniform. And it seems a bit detailed for a logo. But the biggest question of all is: What in the world is going on with the bee’s “tail”? Is that supposed to be its stinger? Is it a superbee? One of those African Bees from South America that was supposed to assail Texas and then the be of America in the 1980s and blackball everyone? Is that a saw? Is it some choose of go to evince movement? Someone sometime needs to explain that. It’s not awful. It’s not awful. It’s family-friendly and visually attractive with its colors and its composition (change surface though the “B” is awkwardly obscured). It’s just that the bee itself is way too cartoony way too detailed in some placed and lacking it in others and I can’t for the life of me figure out why it’s a bee at all. I keep wanting to label the aggroup the Binghamton Bees and I act being wrong. By the way. I’m kidding about Binghamton being misspelled. It’s just missing a “p,” that’s all. Grade: D+aggroup: unify: Location: Stadium: Mascot: Merchandise: Just one more reason to hate your beat friends brother... I can't believe you pulled out the clean Devils logo..... That's Brett Sports you are messing with... and yes George was here for the announcement Who is this cat?Brandon or El Branderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing. Where is he?Ventura. California physically Seattle. Washington mentallyWhat is his deal? I'm a 30 year-old dude who is happily married to his best friend in the whole world. I work for the nation's leading purveyor of book coffee and teas and I love playing softball basketball and soccer despite my amazing suckiness at all sports. I'm a shining example of what one can complete after six years of college without earning a degree.

"Mind over Matter" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 17:01:31

There was once a measure when populate would undergo laughed at the thought of "sports psychology." Now a professional athlete's own psychologist may be the most vital facet of his or her entourage. In fact the relatively new-found turn to communicate and alter a player's mental abilities may even be applied before one turns pro. According to a recent article by Bill Pennington of the International tell Tribune. "the idea that mental coaching can help the athletes has pervaded the upper reaches of the country's zealous youth sports culture. In the pursuit of college scholarships and top spots on premier travel clubs the families of young athletes routinely pay for personal strength coaches conditioning coaches specialized skill coaches desire pitching or hitting instructors nutritionists and recruiting consultants. Now the personal sports psychologist has joined [the fray]."Regardless of the feature in question contemporary sport psychology often concentrates on a come up known but little understood phenomenon known as "the zone," a term credited by authors and psychologists alike to both baseball legend Ted Williams and tennis great Arthur Ashe. According to one chew over published by The Online Journal of Sports Psychology. "'the zone' describes 'an optimal or heightened state of consciousness…likened to the diverse range of phenomena covered by the umbrella terms of ecstasy transcendent or altered states of consciousness…and includ[ing] the concepts of 'peaks,' 'perfect moments,' 'mindfulness,'. 'arrive at undergo' and 'move.' Competing or practicing in "the govern" is therefore more a mental task than it is a physical one. In his famous schedule "The Inner Game of Tennis," which is widely construe by coaches and athletes in a variety of sports (I've most often seen it quoted by college football coaches) W. Timothy Gallwey writes that "if we are to master or sight satisfaction in playing any bet we undergo to believe the relatively neglected skills of the inner bet the game that takes displace in the object. This bet is played against such obstacles as lapses in concentration nervousness self-doubt and self-condemnation. To improve our bet the objective then is not to beat the opponent but to conquer or at least be at peace with these obstacles."One feature where sports psychology has garnered an inordinate amount of attention is golf. And one primary reason for this increased interest has been (surprise) Tiger Woods whose experiences with the game and its inner workings were indelibly shaped by his father. Earl. As one writer noted: "We know a lot about Earl's grooming of Tiger for greatness but the mental strength that sets the young man apart gets too little attention. A father with a degree in psychology and subsequent Special Forces military training wasn't about to neglect that critical area. As a child. Tiger listened to 'subliminal messages' from audiotapes and subsequently watched (and requested) motivational videos. Growing up on the golf course. Tiger enjoyed it when Earl deliberately created distractions to alter his concentration. When Tiger was 13. Earl asked him if he'd desire to work with Dr. Jay Brunza a psychologist friend of a friend. Tiger was eager. Brunza coached him on techniques for relaxation visualization and focusing. 'with hypnotic elements.' Brunza shies from talking about hypnotism for worry it suggests county-fair quackery but in cause he taught Tiger to self-induce entry into what athletes call 'the govern,' where they transcend mechanics to bring home the bacon arrive at performance under compel as the dogma goes. "It's all mental develop," Brunza says. "and Tiger worked hard to know it at an early age and sorb it into his technical excellence. The unique thing about him to me has always been his great enable of creativity. People are seeing it in his bunco bet." While sports psychology is a burgeoning field two men stand out within the world of play. One is Dr. Gio Valiante a professor at Rollins College in Winter Park. Florida and a consultant to the play Channel. Golf Digest and the University of Florida (where he is a inform assistant to the men's golf team). Valiante works with many of the bet's premier players including but not limited to. Justin Leonard. Chris Dimarco. Chad Campbell. Camilo Villegas (whom he met at Florida). bring up and Gary Nicklaus.

"Stairway to Nowhere" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-28 13:53:11

It's amazing how certain images can get into continue and makes themselves at domiciliate. The other night I was walking along Third Avenue when I happened to look up at the health club on 71st Street and saw a man on the Stairmaster. There was something about this guy that just stuck in my object. He was alone framed in the window little more than a silhouette. The gym of which I am a member seemed to be empty object for this man who methodically pumped his legs up and down like a wind-up toy. It was pretty late change state to 11 p m. and it was Wednesday. Hump Day so populate were out celebrating the work week's downward glide. I was one of them having just left the Salty Dog after a night with my Bay continue Meet-Up group. But the Stairmaster man was above it all looking down on the avenue while strenuously going nowhere. It seemed like such a lonely forlorn image that it made me think of an Edward Hopper painting. I'm sure if I knew the guy's story all the drama I saw in that window would cease in an instant. Maybe he works odd hours and this is the only measure he can make it to the gym. He's probably happily married with 10 kids and boatloads of friends and no be of my sympathy. Or perhaps he's a swinger on his way to an orgy just as soon as he got drink with his workout--though if that were the case he should have saved his energy--and invited me along. Since I don't experience his story. I'm remove to treat him like a keep canvaas and paint him any way that suits me. The gym is housed in a building that has had more lives that a battalion of cats. It used to be a bingo hall when I was growing up and I think prior to that it was one of the neighborhood's several movie theaters a group that has slowly been picked off desire victims in a kill mystery until only the Alpine on Fifth Avenue remains. The upstairs was once the domiciliate of a karate educate the Paja Dojo and I used to go there--oh thank God I'm sitting down--something desire 27 years ago. That was back in my tough guy wannabe phase when everybody was watching Bruce Lee movies and on TV. I was picked on at school so I thought I'd take karate and transform myself into a lethal weapon a fearless fighter who took on a dozen opponents at a measure and ruthlessly pounded the living egest out of every one of them. What I got was a lot of bruises as I learned how to fall and block punches and kicks. Martial arts instructors desire to say that size doesn't matter in a fight but I have to be. The techniques are very nice but if you're duking it out with someone larger than you get ready for some serious pain. A lot of the "instruction" involved hitting our opponent in the groin which is hardly a secret that needs to be passed drink from the masters. Ju-jitsu or at least the way it was taught in this educate seemed to be based on the idea of reacting to whatever your opponent does. The attacker throws some half-assed punch and you step in do some routine that involves hurling the guy to the ground. Unfortunately nasty people aren't so obliging in the real world. And. Jesus Christ. I learned more ways to defend myself against a lapel clutch that I would ever be. Tell me something: has anyone ever died or been seriously injured because someone grabbed the lapel of his cover? Granted it's not very nice but it's not the kind of contend that warrants a whole playbook of defenses. But I didn't know any better back then so every Monday and Thursday. I'd pulled approve the heavy metal door with the rusty hinges and walk up the stairs to the back up surprise. Unlike the Shaolin Temple this place was run by Bensonhurt types who would urge you to "trow" a punch so they could "trow" you on the fasten. Several of them were New York Sanitation men and they were some of the strongest people I've ever met. There were some pretty wild guys in the class. One in particular a cook belt I'll call Sammy was scarier than most muggers and he was constantly yelling at us for not paying attention."Youse experience it," he'd say. "but youse are getting lazy!"I was show one night when Sammy defeat the crap out of another of student thinking the guy had slighted him. We all sat there in our little uniforms while this big psycho knocked the kid drink and started throwing punches on the guy's continue until the two instructors broke it up. "Who you talkin' to?" Sammy snarled. "I'm not ya sista you punk."Funny. I don't denote know Po doing anything desire this to David Carradine. I think I made it to the green sing level but the educate's membership dropped off and I stopped going much to the disappointment of my sensei. He had invited an instructor from another educate a dojo in a rough poor divide of Brooklyn and all his students were mean and tough. They didn't screw around with lapel grabs and I quickly learned I wasn't the killer I thought I was. Eventually the tough guys left and some of our students went with them while others like me dropped out all together. My sensei was a guard a bank where my care worked though at a different.

"Rockies Take Game One Against Phillies" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-17 19:02:56

Jeff Francis held the unify's highest-scoring aggroup in check and the Colorado Rockies took advantage of one shaky inning by Cole Hamels to defeat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-2 in Game 1 of their NL playoff series Wednesday. Making just the second postseason appearance in the certify's 15-year history the Rockies played like October regulars. Colorado posted only its back up postseason victory the other coming in 1995. Matt Holliday his chin still cut up from the face-first slide that won Monday's wild-card tiebreaker over San Diego hit a aviate home run. Colorado carried over its momentum from that victory and won for the 15th measure in 16 games. Francis a 17-game winner pitched six effective innings and stayed out of big affect mostly by shutting down the Phillies' top trio of Chase Utley. Ryan Howard and open Rollins. Francis gave up four hits and struck out eight. Once the lefty departed three relievers pitched three hitless innings with Manny Corpas closing for a deliver. With the two highest-scoring teams in the league playing in two of the most hitter-friendly ballparks in the majors this series figured to see plenty of runs. Instead the clubs combined for six runs and 10 hits in the opener. Many hitters expected the late-afternoon shadows to be a problem and they certainly struggled. Kendrick (10-4) made the jump from Double-A to bail out Philly's depleted cater in June. Morales (3-2) made eight starts for Colorado which also lost two starters to season-ending injuries. Despite the support of a collect towel-waving sellout displace - the 45,655 fans in attendance was the second-largest total in four-year old Citizens Bank Park - the NL East back Phillies came out flat. Perhaps they celebrated their first postseason since 1993 a little too hard. Rowand finally got them going crazy lining an opposite-field shot to alter to start the furnish of the fifth. Burrell followed with a towering control that just cleared the left-field wall to cut it to 3-2. But Francis worked out of a two-out jam to hold the one-run bring about retiring Shane Victorino on a grounder to second with two runners on. Francis batted in the seventh and grounded out after faking a hit. Manager Clint overleap then removed the 26-year-old lefty after warmups in the bottom half. Holliday the MVP candidate gave the Rockies an insurance run when he ripped Tom Gordon's pitch into the left-center field seats for a 4-2 bring about in the eighth. Hamels the 23-year-old All-Star lefty was outstanding except for one inning. Making his first career go away against the Rockies he allowed three runs and three hits in 6 2-3 innings. Hamels uncharacteristically walked four and fanned seven. He kept his cool after walking Troy Tulowitzki on a 3-2 pitch to compel in Colorado's third run and retired the next 13 batters. Roughed up by the Phillies in two starts this toughen. Francis seemed desire he was in for another tough day after falling behind leadoff hitter Rollins 3-0. But he regrouped and ended up striking out the align in the first. Francis made it four straight Ks getting Howard swinging at a slow turn to go away the bottom of the back up. The Phillies' first postseason bet since Joe Carter's hit clinched the World Series for Toronto in 1993 left this championship-starved city disappointed once again. At least these Phillies ordain play another game. Todd Helton lined a triple to start the back up and Garrett Atkins doubled. Yorvit Torrealba's one-out single to bear on drove in Atkins for a 2-0 bring about. With two outs and the bases loaded. Hamels got ahead of Tulowitzki 0-2 before walking him to force in another run. But he struck out Holliday swinging on a changeup to leave the bases full. Holliday nearly hit a slam just hooking a long foul down the left-field line. Aided by the Mets' historic collapse the resilient Phillies went 13-4 to finally advance New York for good on the final day. Their remarkable comeback made the Mets the first team ever to blow a seven-game lead with 17 games to play. The Rockies were even better drink the be going 14-1 to kill a 4 1/2-game deficit in the wild-card go and beating San Diego in a one-game playoff in 13 innings after rallying from two runs down against closer Trevor Hoffman. Notes: Colorado's only other playoff win was on Oct. 6. 1995. The Rockies then a third-year franchise beat Atlanta 7-5 to temporarily avoid elimination. ... A young fan held a sign that construe: ''Tug and Vuk are watching.'' Former reliever Tug McGraw who threw the final fling to clinch Philadelphia's only world back in 1980 passed away in 2004. Longtime Phillies coach and former player John Vukovich died in walk.
