Chris Lytle comes up short in senate bid

UFC veteran Chris Lytle lost his bid to win the Republican state Senate nomination in Indiana on Tuesday. He came in second with 30 percent of the vote behind Mike Crider who had 41 percent. After the results came in, he made a concession tweet.

Almost. I finished 2nd. It was a good fight.

Lytle’s last MMA bout was a win over Dan Hardy in August. He announced his retirement just before the bout, then won by a submission. His campaign started less than a month after the bout.

His campaign drew support from the MMA community, as fighters Matt Mitrione, Chael Sonnen and Patrick Cote encouraged the Lytle’s district to get out and vote for him. Both fighters and fight fans liked Lytle because of his style in the cage. He earned a record of 31-18-5 and picked up $515,000 in fight night bonuses during his 12-year fight career.

Chin up, Chris. Be comforted by the fact that you can knock out anyone who didn’t vote for you.

Recently I had to shift my home to Brooklyn. I was operating a small business unit and our house was not large enough to accomadate all our belongings.That is when I started to look out for a brooklyn storage space facility. I wanted my electronic items relating to my unit and important records that will cause clutter in our home to be stored in a climatic controlled brooklyn storage unit. I was on the look out for a suitable location near my home with good security arrangement for my belongings. The storage facility should be one that will be easy for me to access from home with hours that suited to my needs. The unit should also be compact with fair rent and security.The storage unit should have clean and secure space with friendly operating staff. Thanks to brooklyn storage, I got a suitable one which suited my requirments.

Regular activity is part of a healthy approach to life.

Watch the video below, or Read More.

If you?ve seen any of my other videos or see me in the office you know that one of the major themes for good health I like to touch on is exercise. Actually, keeping an active lifestyle with exercise as a part of it would be more accurate. An active lifestyle would be choosing to do things that get you off your chair or couch; doing things for fun like playing tennis or hiking. Or maybe parking a little further away from where you need to go shopping and walking a little more, taking the stairs instead of the elevator. There are all kinds of small things you can do throughout the day to increase your activity. Going to the gym is good but complementing that regular exercise with regular activity is even better. Did you notice that the operative word here is ?regular??

6 Filipino boys in trouble over FB kiss photos

By
Filed Under soothing  | Tagged With: | | No Comments»

MANILA, Philippines?? A Philippine Catholic school is witholding the diplomas of six high school boys who uploaded Facebook photos that appear to show them kissing each other, an education official said Friday.

A day earlier, a Philippine court rejected another Catholic school’s decision to bar five girls from graduation ceremonies because they had posed in bikinis for photos posted on Facebook. The cases test the limits of privacy in a conservative Catholic nation that is also among the world’s most prolific users of social networking sites.

Department of Education officer Samuel Mergenio said in a interview that the six boys told him they had taken prank photos to make it appear that their lips touched. One of the boys uploaded the pictures on Facebook and mistakenly made them available to others, Mergenio said.

The pictures were not taken at the boys’ school, Infant Jesus Academy in the Manila suburb of Marikina, but the students were wearing school uniforms, he said.

Mergenio said the school’s chancellor informed the department late Thursday that the boys will be allowed to participate in the graduation ceremonies but “the release of their diplomas will be delayed.” He said the school did not say when the diplomas will be handed over and that he was awaiting a formal written report from the school.

The school chancellor was not immediately available for comment Friday.

On Thursday, a judge in central Cebu city issued a restraining order against St. Theresa’s College High School, ordering it to allow the five students who appeared in the bikini photos to take part in Friday afternoon’s graduation ceremonies.

The school, which declined to comment to The Associated Press, asked the court to reconsider. The girls’ lawyer, Cornelio Mercado, said Friday that the school was still insisting on banning the students while its motion for reconsideration is pending.

Mercado said one Facebook photo at issue showed a girl holding a cigarette and a liquor bottle, while others showed all five girls wearing bikinis at a beach party early this year.

School officials took action against the girls for what they called “engaging in immoral, indecent, obscene or lewd acts,” according to court records. They said the students would graduate but could not participate in activities or ceremonies.

Earlier this month, the five girls were summoned by the principal and other school officials, “dressed down” and called “sluts” for their Facebook pictures, Mercado said.

The judge, Wilfredo Navarro of the Regional Trial Court, castigated school officials for calling the girls “inappropriate names” and said the students had gone through “a psychologically and emotionally devastating experience.” He said not allowing them to participate in graduation activities “would indeed be most un-Christian if not entirely inhuman.”

The mother of one girl had petitioned the court on behalf of her daughter. Mercado said the ruling applied to all five.

He said the families on Friday filed charges of “grave oral defamation” and illegal use of photos showing minors against the school and school officials. He alleged that the school officials had illegally obtained the pictures because they were not Facebook “friends” of the girls and were not allowed access.

Preparing To Remodel Your Home | House Improvements

By
Filed Under soothing  | Tagged With: | | No Comments»

It all begins with a dream: cathedral ceilings, skylights, and room-sized closets. But, the dream may turn into a nightmare, unless you plan ahead.

Even before you consult an architect, you can begin sketching out your ideas and imagining your remodeled home. If you are adding or expanding a room, think about how the space will be used and how the changes will affect traffic patterns.

Also consider how new construction will affect the overall context of your home. An oversized addition may overwhelm your house or crowd a small lot.

A simple home design software program can help you visualize your project. This software can also better help your architect understand exactly what it is you want done to the space.

One of the best tools we have is our ability to see other people?s flops and successes. One of the best ways to get inspiration and to avoid pitfalls is to follow the experiences of other homeowners.

A number of Web sites offer online chronicles of home improvement projects, along with reply forms, message boards, and chat rooms that let you ask questions and get feedback. If you have a friend in town that recently remodeled their home, ask for the contractor?s name and contact information.

Whatever you do, don?t remodel on a whim, think about it and plan it out. If you don?t, your experience could be nightmare.

You?ll end up spend way too much money, it will take much longer than projected, and you probably won?t get what you had in mind. Be careful and plan out your design with a professional and make sure you get exactly what you ask for.

Although you may dream of having a spacious new addition, the project may not make sense if you plan to sell your house in a few years. A luxury bathroom can price your house beyond the values in your neighborhood.

Some projects, such as vinyl siding on a Queen Anne Victorian, will actually decrease the value of your home. Moreover, your own family?s needs may be very different in a few years so make sure the plans fit your future.

Even the best-laid budgets can go bust. Chances are, your remodeling project will cost more than you expect.

Before you set your heart on high-end ceramic tile, find out how much you have to spend and make sure you have a cushion against cost overruns. For must-have items that could wipe out your savings account, explore home improvement loans and other financing options.

Unless you plan to take on the entire remodeling project by yourself, you?ll need to hire helpers. Naturally, you?ll want to make sure that the folks who work for you are qualified, licensed, and properly insured.

Finding the best team for your remodeling project goes beyond a simple reference check. The architect who has won top awards may have a design vision very different from your own.

Whether you plan a simple carpentry job or a major project requiring the services of an architect and a general contractor, misunderstandings can lead to disaster. Do not begin remodeling without a written contract.

Make sure everyone agrees on the work that will be completed and how long it will take. Also be clear on the types of materials that will ? and will not ? be used.

In most parts of the world, a legal permit is required before you make structural changes to your home. The building permit assures that the remodeling project meets local building codes and safety regulations.

If you live in a historic district, the permit also assures that exterior changes to your home are in keeping with neighborhood guidelines. General contractors will usually take care of the paperwork, but smalltime workers may not.

There will be equipment breakdowns, supply shortages, miscommunications, and delays. Draw up a few friendly rules for workers.

Tell them where they may park their trucks and store their equipment. Remember that the larger the remodel, the greater the chances for frustrations.

By
Filed Under soothing  | Tagged With: , , | | No Comments»

These 4 factors can help you improve your brain health, and may help prevent dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease.

Research is showing that making better lifestyle choices can improve your brain health. These simple lifestyle changes can also protect your brain from the onset of Alzheimer’s Disease.

The 4 lifestyle choices that greatly benefit your brain are

  1. Staying physically active
  2. A healthy diet
  3. Exercises for your brain
  4. And staying socially active.

Physical Activity and a Healthy Diet

Research by Dr. Scarmeas and his colleagues at the New York Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center have shown that physical activity and a healthy diet can greatly reduce your chances of developing Alzheimer’s Disease.

Evidence of the research is suggesting that lifestyle changes that promote heart and vascular health also promotes brain health.

Suggestions for physical activity that promotes heart and brain health are

  1. Maintaining a regular physical fitness routine
  2. Perform moderate-intensity aerobic exercises for 30 minutes a day for at least 5 days a week
  3. Perform weight resistance training for muscle strength at least 3 days a week, every other day.

What is a Healthy Diet?

The diet that best promotes brain and heart health is the Mediterranean type of diet. The Mediterranean type of diet is low in carbohydrates and saturated fats. It is high in

  1. Dark colored fruits and vegetables like blueberries, raspberries, spinach, red cabbage and broccoli.
  2. Cold water fish like salmon and sardines
  3. Nuts like walnuts and pecans
  4. Healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil
  5. Seeds like flaxseeds and chia seeds

Exercises For Your Brain

Constantly learning new things are the best exercises for your brain. This can include

  1. Learning a new language
  2. Learning to play a new musical instrument
  3. Frequently reading a new book
  4. Crossword puzzles
  5. Playing chess or checkers with different people
  6. Learning new games

Just keep challenging your knowledge and brain.

Staying Socially Active

One of the things that people with healthy brains do is remaining socially active with family and friends. Keep in touch with people that you know, and find ways to make new friends. Volunteering is also a good way to stay socially active.

Join a book club or some other type of club that includes activities that you enjoy.

Make these changes in your lifestyle and drastically improve your brain’s health and fitness.

Y-combinator-logoAfter a marathon day of really solid startup pitches, it’s officially a wrap for Y Combinator’s Winter 2012 demo day held at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif. We’ve been here since the beginning, with coverage of all the startup pitches across the five demo sessions that were marked as “on the record” and ready for publicity. The fifth round of YC companies today had a wide-range of specialties — from bringing families closer together, to tools for mobile app developers, to letting women swap dresses online. In case you missed our earlier dispatches, you can find our previous coverage of session one, session two, session three, and session four.
