Now that that one PC of mine has been cleaned out, it’s running much cooler. The fan above the heatsink has yet to spin up while doing something strenuous. In the past, anything that made the CPU work at 50% for more than a few seconds would cause the fan to spin up. It’s because the heatsink fins (or whatever you’d like to call them) were clogged with a layer of dust. Now that the dust is gone, the fan and heatsink are able to work much more efficiently at removing the heat from the CPU and I know that this will give the entire system a longer lifespan.

On the exercise front, I tried something a little different. I try to do leg workouts as often as I can because they can really get the heart racing and burn calories and fat. So the new exercise I did came from an idea I saw on TV and it’s certainly nothing revolutionary. It’s just something I’ve never tried.

There’s a padded chair intended for guys who want to do sitting shoulder presses (video) and I decided to use it as a temporary seat. I’d sit down and quickly stand up and either do a standing shoulder press or a bicep curl. Either way, I was working out my upper body, while also burning a ton of calories with the repeated sit-stand-sit-stand motion. It wore me out within an hour and I was done. Kaput. Throw my ass on a cart and wheel me out.

I intend to do this exercise more often now that I familiarized myself with it. It’s always interesting trying new exercises. Sometimes they prove to be awkward and some end up being less strenuous than you expected. This one was in fact strenuous, but I know it was good for my weight loss efforts.

Italy is known throughout the world for its perfect pasta, creamy gelato and homemade dolci-as well as for their tall, dark and sexy men and graciously thin, yet-somehow-still-curvy women. So what’s the deal? How do these people live in a country where their food is celebrated and still look like they just stepped off of the cover of Vogue Italia?

Yea … I don’t know.

(But I find out, you’ll be the first to know!)

What I do know is that it isn’t always easy for travelers who come in search of that perfect pasta to leave with their pre-vacation waistline.

So here are five tips for staying fit when traveling in Italy.

1. Use Your Feet

Many Italian cities cater to pedestrians who take to the streets when buying groceries, visiting museums or going out for dinner. Join them. Instead of taking a taxi, hopping on a bus or using the subway, walk. You will get in some extra exercise and see new attractions along the way.

2. Chew on This

Although it is likely caused by too many lunches gobbled at our desks, many Americans have the sad habit of inhaling food. We are in a hurry, we have five minutes before our next meeting, we are starving. I understand that. But when you are traveling in Italy, take time to slow down and enjoy your meal. Chew slowly, savor the flavors and people-watch and you will begin to see the real beauty of an Italian meal.

3. Fill ‘er Up

Staying hydrated is one of the top weight loss tips on the Internet, so it makes sense that drinking plenty of water when you travel, will help you stay fit. Italy abounds with free water fountains. Keep a bottle with you and refill it often. On a side note, you can purchase bottled water in supermarkets at a fraction of what you will pay outside vendors or bars.

4. Be a Creature of Habit

That is to say, don’t change your habits just because you are traveling. If you regularly enjoy a morning run before breakfast, then bring your tennis shoes and spend some time jogging near your hotel or B&B. You will get a great view of the city and help work off some of those extra calories.

5. Choose Your Own

… breakfast items and snacks, that is. Much to my dismay, Italian breakfasts mostly consist of croissants and coffee, so if you are hoping for healthy bagels or low-fat oatmeal, you are out of luck. To help stay in shape, go to the local grocery store or market and stock up on fresh fruit. You can add this to your breakfast, alternate fruit with croissants or have fruit as a snack between meals or at a night.

The question of whether you should get rid off carb based foods thoroughly or decrease them significantly has led to severe discussion in the slimming industry. Weight Loss Tablet Numerous people claim that you have to to cut out carbs completely in order to become slim speedily. Certainly I am sure you are all conscious of one particularly fashionable weight loss programme that advocates a enormous reduction in foods containing carbs. It will of course come as no surprise to you that the people who are selling these systems have become very wealthly.

Well let me inform you this, not only should you not cut out foods containing carbohydrates completely; it’s in fact unsafe to do so. Initially of let us analyse why you don’t need to cut out carbohydrates exclusively. Well contrary to what the so called “weight loss gurus” tell you, carb based foods are in and of themselves are not high in calories. Make sure that you take some time to really digest this statement. . Foods containing carbohydrates are not fattening….Weight Loss Appetite Suppressants Now I realise that this information is different to what you are being told by many “experts” but it’s the unconditional truth. It is one big lie to say that carbohydrates are fattening.

The only way that you can put on more weight, if if you are not active and eat more calories than you burn. It’s that straightforward. A calorie is just a calorie, nothing more. It doesn’t matter whether you get your calories from protein, foods containing carbohydrates or fat. What matters is that you are active enough (remember you must train) to burn more calories than you devour.

There are several reasons why carbohydrates have been singled out as the food that contributes to fat gain. First of all it is what we add to a lot of of our carb based foods that lead people to think that foods containing carbohydrates cause weight gain. Think about how much spread you put on a piece of toast. . What about all that extremely rich cheese sauce that you mixed in with you pasta dish.. It’s these trimmings that are artfully causing you to pile on the weight, not the foods containing carbs themselves. So if you want to get slim, cut down Appetite Suppressant these fats not the foods containing carbohydrates.

Secondly you need to be aware of a small diet history to see why foods containing carbohydrates have become so notorious. During the 60’s and 70’s scientists revealed a clear link connecting animal fat (i.e fatty meat, butter, cheese) and coronary heart illness. As a result low fat diets became exceedingly prevalent. In an attempt to cater for this (and profit) , the food industry started to produce a huge range of low-fibre white flower products (muffins, doughnuts, bagels and cookies), lots of carb snack food (popcorn, nachos etc) and a lot of unusual high carb fillings.. Note that most of these foods are “refined carbohydrates”,

Mr Mackey put his name to an article entitled “The Whole Foods alternative to Obamcare”, which opened with a quotation from Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.”

It went on to say that “even in countries like Canada and the UK, there is no intrinsic right to health care. Rather citizens of those countries are told by government bureaucrats what health care treatments they are eligible to receive and when they can receive them.”

The chain, which has a flagship store in Kensington, was inundated with complaints from its customers, who are often mocked as latte-sipping, Volvo-driving liberals.

The company issued an apology to its customers, saying Mr Mackey’s “intent was to express his personal opinions, not those of Whole Food Market”.

Sometime called “Whole Paycheck” for its high prices, the supermarket has recorded sales of $1.8 billion for last quarter, up 2 per cent despite the recession.

Whole Foods quickly responded with an email apology to customers who contacted it.

“John’s intent was to express his personal opinions — not those of Whole Food Market,” it read.

“It’s very clear that John’s piece offended some of our customers and some of our team members as well. We offer you our sincere apology.” The apology went on to say that Mr Mackey’s article “was written in favor of health care reform,” though not the reform Mr Obama is planning.

The letter went on to say that Mr Mackey wanted to share the company’s experience in which all full time employees have free health care.

would like to offer a few thoughts about the ongoing debate about health care reform.

Those who keep trying to scare us with the notion of a government bureaucrat telling our doctors what medical treatment we should have haven’t been paying attention.

The private insurance plans the polls keep telling us we like so much are already doing that.

They refuse to pay for certain types of treatment. If a doctor says a generic drug won’t do, they punish us by making us pay more for a brand-name medication.

They raise our insurance premiums on a regular basis to maintain their profit margins.

I know a healthy woman who is self-employed and has a private insurance policy; her insurance premium was doubled because she turned 62 years of age.

They refuse to insure some people (pre-existing condition), and they sometimes cancel coverage for people who develop expensive conditions.

Additionally, if you lose your job, you usually also lose your insurance.

What would the proposed reforms do to alleviate these problems?

The insurance companies would not be allowed to charge higher rates or deny coverage based on pre-existing conditions. Regulations could prevent the companies from denying fair claims.

With more people insured and able to see a private doctor, the use of emergency rooms for routine treatment would decrease, saving money for everyone.

A public plan or insurance cooperative would give those who lose their coverage a place to get insurance.

Overall, it is my conclusion that health care reform of the sort being considered in Congress would be good for the country and for most consumers of health care.

It wasn’t long ago that heartbeat monitors were used strictly by health care professionals. But an increase in people wanting to ensure they are as healthy as possible, has lead to heartbeat monitors becoming a very common component of a fitness routine.

Some readers might be wondering what exactly a heartbeat monitor does. Basically it is a device that monitors your hearts activity during physical activity, allowing you to maximize the results of your fitness program.

There are several different types of heartbeat monitors available on the market, targeting a wide range of uses from weight loss to high intensity fitness programs. Several types of exercise equipment come with a heartbeat monitor built in. Treadmills, exercise bikes and elliptical trainers are all things you will commonly see a heartbeat monitor on.

You will also have to choose whether you want a high end monitor or a low end. This decisions will likely be based on the type of workouts you take part in. Generally the more features you want the higher the price you will pay for your device.

Regardless of the model you choose, you will want to ensure your heartbeat monitor is easy to use. If you cant understand how to take advantage of all those special features what good is the flashy expensive heartbeat monitor to you?

Lastly you will need to evaluate if you really need a heartbeat monitor. Remember that since most treadmills and similar pieces of equipment come equipped with one already; if you do most of your workout on these types of machines a heartbeat monitor may not be necessary. With that in mind if you feel you still require one I would recommend buying at least a mid range one, to ensure you get a good quality heartbeat monitor, that will provide accurate results.

A special thank you to everyone who took part in or will be taking part in the hockey questionnaire o’ doom – the response has been overwhelming! And don’t worry, there’s still time to get in on the madness; just have your responses in by 11:59 pm EST on Wednesday and they’ll join the rest.

Going forward we’ll be taking a sort of divide and conquer approach to the fantastic responses appearing in the Cheap Seats inbox daily, a way to assure that no one gets left out and we squeeze every last drop of entertainment out of this whole nutty thing.

Now don’t worry, all of your fantastic answers will have a place here after the deadline. However, some of your favorite bloggers (and mine) from around the league have graciously caved to blackmail filled out the questionnaire; and being the witty, wordy and wonderful beings they are, just posting snippets of their responses would be doing everyone an injustice.

And so the only solution is to give them their own posts – so let’s kick this whole thing off with Tic Tac Toe Hockey’s Jimmy Jazz. Take it away, JJ!

What is the first jersey you ever owned?
I was ten years old when I got a Caps sweater. I liked Bondra and Hunter, and I absolutely loved Simon, but I knew that no man could skate with the Caps for all eternity. “ICEMAN, 00″ Yep. The Iceman. Double zeros. Looking back, I wonder why the hell I didn’t just get the Simon sweater; people would now laud my appreciation of franchise history, not question my heterosexuality. I did, however, have the foresight to order a 54; the sweater has only recently become too snug.

What is the last piece of hockey memorabilia – jerseys, cards, figurines, etc. – you purchased?
I bought a game puck at KCI during one of the blood drives w/ Bonzai. He made it out to my brother. Very sharp.

Keep your ticket stubs or throw them away?
I really hate scrap-booking.

Who is the most underrated player in the league? The most overrated?
I think Spezza is pretty overrated. Any guy that centers Heater and Alfredsson can post a point per game. Most underrated? Defensive centers never get the credit they deserve. The Soviets once called Gainey the most complete player in the world, but my guess is that most casual fans don’t even know he’s a GM, never mind his impressive resumé: A Conn Smythe, five rings, and four Selkes. Where’s the love for guys like Steckel? He’s no Gainey, but the guy is rock solid in his own zone, and a beast on the dot. The Selke has been bastardized. Most years, the voting is either based entirely on reputation, or it’s seen as a runner-up for the Art Ross. This year Rod Brind’Amour, A GUY THAT ENDED THE YEAR WITH A BLOODY MINUS-23, finished sixteenth in Selke voting. Unbelievable. The Earth is flatter than my nerdy neighbor’s ass.

Forget predictions and rankings and who finished where last year – all logic aside, what two teams (one East, one West) would you love to see compete for the Cup this year?
Caps/Flames. I’m sure Caps/Hawks will the the popular choice, but give me Iggy over PK and Toews any day of the week.

Complete this sentence: The next Winter Classic should be between the Caps and B’s, and take place at Fenway.

Which team has the best mascot?
The only team mascot I’m familiar with (besides Slapshot) is Spartacat, who is very much the man. He has a few youtube clips that are great.

Who is your favorite all-time player? Who is your favorite active player?
Peter Bondra and Olie Kolzig are the only two individual parts that I’ve liked just as much as the Capitals whole. Don’t get me wrong, I love guys like Hunter, Ovechkin, Johansson, Kono, Clark, and Backstrom, but Olie and Bonzai seemed to transcend Hockey. Watching Bonzai blaze down the right side was religious ecstasy. Olie was just a rock. This probably sounds hyperbolic, but it’s the truth. Oh, and I invite all the haters to put guns in their mouthes and pull the triggers. A name placard? A contractual dispute? Yeah, let’s denigrate some franchise players. It’s a fantastic pastime. Forget about their on and off ice contributions. Please, please acknowledge only the negative. You’ll all have rich, fulfilling lives.

Give us your favorite hockey saying that doubles as a dirty euphemism.
“Semin gets pasted along the boards.” Or “smeared” — I guess it depends what kind of day Joe B. is having.

Everyone’s got a guilty pleasure – what player and/or team do you like that you really shouldn’t?
I really love seeing Avery do what he does best. As long as it’s not against the Caps, and as long as I’m fully cognizant of just how reprehensible he is as both a human being and team player, I love watching him vex the Kovalchuks and Brodeurs. After all, if one pestilential bottom feeder can make it, there’s hope for me yet.

What is your favorite hockey memory?
I have three memories that stand above the rest.

My first Caps game: 02/03/99
I had been a Caps fan for several years before I got to see a game in person. I won a pair of seats in a raffle, and at first, I was a little ticked that the first live game I would watch was against the Lightning on a weeknight. It turned out fine: Feb. 3, 1999 was the night that the Caps blasted the Bolts 10-1. Bonzai had four tallies — not bad at all. The lone Tampa fan in our section spent most of the game slurring, “Leeeeeeets go Liiiiiiiightning. Leeeeets go Liiiighting.” My mom found that hilarious. I still find it incredible that two Southeast teams have Cups. I really do.

Caps Clinch: 04/05/2008
The Caps finally return to the show. On my birthday. It was a Godlike sprint to the finish.
In the imperishable words of The Pixies, “Holy moley, Rocka my soul.” Their self titled album is grossly underrated. In fact, all of their work is grossly underrated.

USA tops Russia: 02/22/02
I remember the match, but my favorite part of that day wasn’t about Hockey. My dad — hardly a sports enthusiast — took me out to dinner that night. Although we were sitting in a booth, we could still see the TV screens in the bar quite well. Throughout the night, strangers in the restaurant and bar cheered when Richter made a save, or when Housley or Weight made a pretty play. Once every four years, most of America falls in love with Soccer. This wasn’t entirely different. My dad didn’t care about the Hockey, but it was important to him that the US won the game. We did.

Which team has the worst jersey? How about the worst third/specialty jersey?
The burnt yellow jersey Nashville had for a while was truly rebarbative: A giant kitty cat drinking from a sea of urine colored half-and-half. The Sens’ and Bolts’ third jerseys aren’t much better.

Roll out your favorite homemade player nickname(s)
“The Wawota Express” for Laich, “The Prestige” for Ovechkin — Washington Hockey disappeared, and Ovechkin made it come back. “Nobody cares about the man in the box.”

If you could move any uprooted team (e.g. Quebec Nordiques, Hartford Whalers, etc.) back to their original home, which one would you move?
Three way trade: The Devils and Avs swap cities, and Quebec acquires Phoenix. Let the west side (yes, “west side”) deal with Lou and Co.’s insufferable trap. Who needs Ambien when you have the Devils and Wild in the same division? Yikes.

What will Jeremy Roenick’s next career move be?
Aerobics video cassette weight loss program infomercial host. Just three easy payments, baby.

Have you ever stopped rooting for one hockey team and started rooting for another? If so, what made you switch?
I’ll never stopped rooting for the Caps, but it’s hard not to get interested in the B’s when you go to school in the area, and your roommate won’t shut the hell up about that time he met Bobby Orr. I’m still pretty jealous. I’ll take the Caps over the B’s 100 times out of 100, but I wished Boston no ill in May. Besides, how can anyone not like a team that has Thomas, Chara, and Lucic?
[CC's Note: I know how. Become a Habs fan.]

Do you follow other sports besides hockey or are you a one-sport fan?
Baseball and Soccer get some of my attention throughout the year. I used to follow the Premier League pretty closely, but I haven’t really kept up since the Caps have gotten hot. Go Arsenal. I like going to DC United games as well. It’s kind of surreal to see a DC team kick so much ass. To the amusement of some, and the irritation of many, I wore a black armband to school after DCU lost to Chicago in the 1998 MLS Cup finals. “Vamos/ Vamos United/ Esta noche/ Te-ne-mos-que ganar.” Good times. The O’s… I will always love the Orioles. I’m not going to change sides just because Montreal reached critical mass.

What is your favorite hockey reference in a non-hockey movie/TV episode?
Dispatch gives a shout-out to Ray Bourque before they sing “Lightning” in Gut The Van. Not a movie or TV show, but it’s still very cool.

What player from the other 29 teams would you love to have on your team?
Datsyuk. Close your eyes and picture a Datsyuk-Semin 1-2. The two best stick-handlers in the world setting each other up — no one would be able to see straight after a few shifts. I pray Datsyuk and Semin are linemates in Vancouver. And give me Leclair in his prime. People easily forget what a stud he was. An Ovechkin-Backstrom-Leclair top line would be unstoppable.

Superlative time!

* Best one-on-one offensive player – Ovechkin. Questions?
* Best one-on-one defenseman – Chara is the only guy who can consistently make life very difficult for Ovechkin.
* Best assist man – Crosby. Damn it all.
* Best pure goal scorer – Ovechkin
* Power-play specialist – Streit isn’t a terrible choice. Gonchar isn’t bad either.
* Shorthanded specialist – Peca, ten years ago.
* Worst referee – McCreary
* Goalie when you need one save – Hasek, ten years ago.
* When it gets chippy – Lucic
* Coach for a must-win game – Ruff. Babcock could get it done, too, but Ruff would mix it up some.
* Get under your skin guy – Avery
* The home crowd – The Wild
* Worst arena to play in as a visitor – The Joe
* Worst arena to play in as the home team – I made the trip down to Atlanta this year, and it was definitely on the leaner side.

And finally, quick picks. Do you prefer:

* Crosby or Ovechkin?
* Ovechkin or Malkin?
* Overtime or shootout?
* 4-on-3 or 5-on-4?
* Sakic or Yzerman?
* Kerry Fraser or Bill McCreary? Are you high?
* Montreal Forum or Maple Leaf Gardens? I’d love to find out someday.
* Roy or Brodeur? I’d take Hasek in his prime over every goalie to ever flex between the iron.
* Touch-up icing or no-touch icing?
* Fedorov or Mogilny? “Ooohhh mmyyyyy… Alllllexxaaaander Mogillllllnnnnny! Who says this guy’s afraid to fly?!? He left a vapor trail!!!”
* Top shelf or five hole?
* Eddie Olczyk or Pierre McGuire?
* Slapshot or wrist shot?
* Orr or Coffey?
* Coffee or tea?
* Canada or Russia? I like Canada’s wholesomely hot girl next door types more than Russia’s “I just walked off of a photo-shoot for Prada” types. As for the Hockey aspect, I honestly don’t know. If we’re going to stick with the usual stereotypes, it’s safe to say that Ovechkin plays more like a Canadian than he does a Russian. Does that mean I prefer Russians or Canadians? I just like good Hockey.
* Miracle or Mighty Ducks? Just watched The Rocket and found it to be very entertaining. The worst hockey flick? Mystery Alaska. I came to this conclusion before Palin was on the ticket, just so everyone knows. Mighty Ducks 3 gets the runner-up.

Stay tuned for more featured bloggers and of course, your responses!

Is lack of sleep thwarting your best weight loss efforts? There is much evidence to suggest that a lack of sleep goes hand-in-hand with weight gain. But first, it is important to address why you arent sleeping well. Is your stress level or caffeine intake to blame? Or is your sleeplessness due to a common but very serious condition called sleep apnea? Sleep apnea can affect weight loss, hunger and hormone activity in a number of ways, thwarting your best efforts to maintain a healthy weight.

Simply put, sleep apnea happens when breathing is obstructed or ceases altogether while sleeping. Symptoms of the condition range from light snoring to waking up several times during the night, gasping for air. The most common form of sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea, affects approximately six percent of the population. But this number is expected to rise along with the increasing rate of obesity, because obesity is a chief cause of obstructive sleep apnea.

To make matters worse, those who are already overweight may gain weight more easily if they arent getting adequate sleep, fueling a vicious cycle. Several theories attempt to explain why a lack of sleep may encourage us to pack on the pounds. Some say that a sleep-deprived person simply doesnt have the energy to be active during the day. Theyre too tired to get to the gym or even take the stairs, burning far fewer calories than a well-rested individual would. Others believe the sleep-deprived attempt to make up for a lack of energy by consuming a greater number of calories. Additional evidence surrounding sleep deprivation and weight gain suggests the problem may be hormonal.

Hormone function is largely responsible for the way in which fat cells respond to the food we eat. Cortisol is a hormone that is usually released in response to emotional and physical stress. When we dont get enough sleep, cortisol is released at an increased rate, making us feel hungry even if we have eaten enough.

And just because sleep apnea is most common among adults, do not assume that children are exempt from the problem. Its no secret that the number of obese children is rising steadily; and its no stretch to imagine that some of these children will develop sleep apnea.

If you are having trouble sleeping on a regular basis, you may be suffering from sleep apnea. Otherwise, a few simple tips and tricks just might help get you back on a regular sleep schedule. If you are already obese and suffering from sleep apnea, your chiropractor can discuss a sensible dieting plan with you, helping you return to a healthy weight and enjoy more restful, unobstructed sleep. And of course, never underestimate the importance of exercise. Exercising three to four times per week is crucial for restful sleep. And getting your workout in long before bedtime is helpful, leaving ample time for your heart rate and hormone levels to return to a resting state. Make sure your room is dark and the temperature of the room will remain comfortable throughout the night. If youre one of those people trying to squeeze extra tasks and activities into your day, leave more for tomorrow and get some sleep. Adequate sleep will increase your productivity during waking hours.

The best diet that you can choose is one that works for you and your journey to lose the weight you desire to lose. As you search for the best diet I want you to think of something that is so important to your complete success in your attempt to lose the weight.

If you lose 100 pounds you are never really a complete winner, you are a recovering obese person. If you drop the pounds you want to shed you are never really done unless you can keep the weight off for the rest of your life. If you lose the weight and then gain it all back you are not a success, you have turned out to be a dismal failure in your weight loss journey.

As we set out this discussion as to what is the best diet you can choose to lose weight, you must include in your choice your ability to keep the weight off for the rest of your life. If you do not keep the weight off it does not matter how much weight you lost if you gain it all back again.

An excellent example of failed weight loss attempts comes from the Atkin’s Diet. This diet promised so much to so many and it did deliver weight loss to the masses. The problem with the Atkin’s Diet is that most people were/are unable to eat only what is required to maintain Atkin’s. The issue developed that after people lost all of the weight they stumbled back into carbohydrates and then gained more weight than they originally lost.

Those who were a success turned into a failure since they were not able to maintain the weight loss. As you search for the best diet you must take into account that there will be life after the “diet” is ended.

A less extreme alternative to Atkin’s is The South Beach Diet. If you are really attracted to the carb free lifestyle then it is suggested that you bypass Atkins’ and try The South Beach Diet. The South Beach Diet is much easier to continue on after you have lost the weight you want to shed.
