...SHARP AND STRONG >> GX FITNESS LOSE 4 POUNDS IN 14 DAYS! PROGRAM 1 1. Aerobics: Perform 6–8 minutes of aerobics exercises, such as Running in Place, Side-Straddle-Hops (“Jumping Jacks”) or High Steps/Knees. Two weight-loss workouts for home or the road 2. Stretching: Perform 4–6 minutes of flexibility exercises. By Ken and Stephanie Weichert SGT KEN, At my APFT in 2007, I weighed in at 201 pounds and 49 percent body fat. I could barely squeeze out 10 push-ups and 15 sit-ups. After Advanced Individual Training, it got worse. I took up smoking and ate too much. As my health sank, I was losing my desire to be a good Soldier. Even so, my commander had hope for me. He thought I’d make a good leader if I could get it together, and encouraged me to apply for Officer Candidate School. I passed, but barely, because of my poor fitness. I knew I had to get better. I turned to your column in GX. The advice helped me implement fitness into my daily life. I walked. Then ran. I weight-trained. I did your exercises as best I could. In March 2008, when I started Officer Candidate School, I weighed in at 169, 31 percent body fat. But I still needed to do more, in order to ship to phase one. Thanks to your program, on my last APFT during OCS, I knocked out over 50 push-ups, over 70 sit-ups, and ran my 2-mile in 16 minutes flat. I went from being an overweight specialist to a second lieutenant who has a desire to lead by example. My cadre at OCS called me a motivation and an inspiring...

And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.” ~C. S. Lewis It’s mid-August at the Jersey Shore and throngs of people are still bustling about our towns and crowding our beaches. It’s hard to imagine that in a few short weeks the crowds will dissipate and our kids will be heading off to a new school year. While many children are excited for school to start, they can still benefit from some assistance in transitioning to this change in their routine. If you have a child who is less than thrilled about the...

...BACK TO THE BASICS: AN INSTRUMENTAL PEDAGOGY PARADIGM SHIFT by Jaime Santucci “Musician Con Fuoco” May 2012 Copyright © 2012 Jaime Santucci MusicianConFuoco.com. All Rights Reserved. Santucci 2 Introduction This paper proposes a new approach, or a new paradigm if you will, to instrumental instruction that combines the foundational principles of language, singing, and psychophysics (awareness of physiology and psychology). I argue that instrumental pedagogy and methodology should necessarily introduce, or in some cases reintroduce, the basic skills in question, using disciplines at every level of instruction. Below, I introduce the skills in question. Those same skills are often the offending skills when taken as parts instead of a whole and when ill-instructed. I introduce the skills using flute pedagogy as a demonstrative example, and discuss why their combined and concurrent application can develop instrumental students more holistically. I see deficiency in current instrumental instruction methods because they seem opposite to the human experience. We are all exposed to language and singing from birth, and on some level we gain awareness of physiology and psychology. Yet the fact that our early lives combine these experience naturally seems lost on traditional instrumental pedagogy. Linguistics, vocal, and pyschophysical instruction usually are taught as completely separate entities. A new, more holistic paradigm would result from changing the instrumental instructional...

...Back to Basics: Developing a Mission, Vision and a Value Statements. Developing a Mission Statement 1. Basically, the mission statement describes the overall purpose of the organization. 2. If the organization elects to develop a vision statement before developing the mission statement, ask “Why does the image, the vision exist -- what is its purpose?” This purpose is often the same as the mission. 3. Developing a mission statement can be quick culture-specific, i.e., participants may use methods ranging from highly analytical and rational to highly creative and divergent, e.g., focused discussions, divergent experiences around daydreams, sharing stories, etc. Therefore, visit with the participants how they might like to arrive at description of their organizational mission. 4. When wording the mission statement, consider the organization's products, services, markets, values, and concern for public image, and maybe priorities of activities for survival. 5. Consider any changes that may be needed in wording of the mission statement because of any new suggested strategies during a recent strategic planning process. 6. Ensure that wording of the mission is to the extent that management and employees can infer some order of priorities in how products and services are delivered. 7. When refining the mission, a useful exercise is to add or delete a word from the mission to realize the change in scope of the mission statement and assess how concise is its wording. ...

...Unknown Name ENGL 112 Basic Training It’s four o’clock in the afternoon and the sun is still shining bright in Fort Jackson, South Carolina. It is hot outside, about 99 degrees. My heart is pounding with fear of the unknown. The bus stops and the doors fold open. A soldier comes running up the bus stairs in a round brown hat screaming at the top of his lungs, “Get off the bus, now soldiers!” I jump out of my seat and immediately rush to the front of the bus, along with about twenty other new recruits. I have no idea what to expect but have heard the horror stories about basic training and how much the Drill Sergeants yell and apparently this Drill Sergeant has a set of lungs on him that could dwarf a bullhorn. As we all stumble off the bus the drill sergeants come out of the woodwork and start yelling and screaming for us to grab our duffel bags and line up! My mind is racing and it is complete chaos. I rush to grab my bag, pushing people with my elbow to make sure I am not the last one in line. With my duffel bag on my shoulder I rush to the line and stand up as straight as possible, my head held high. “Who are you?” asked one of the drill sergeants standing in front of me, inches from my face. “Wheeless, Sir,” I managed to yell back. The drill sergeant, angry now, yells back “I am no Sir, I work for a living! Start pushing and do not stop until I tell you to!” I dropped out of college to join the Army. After a year or so of college, I realized that...

...LIFE OF A SOLDIER I was in the Army for 10 years. I have been to a lot of places. I went to Basic training at Fort Leonardwood MO. My first duty station was Fort Carson Co. Second duty station was Fort Drum NY, while there I was sent to Bosnia. Third was Camp Howze Korea. Last duty station was Fort Carson CO. I arrived at Fort leonardwood also known as fort lost in the woods because it is in the middle of nowhere in August of 1993 for Basic Training and AIT. I would be here for a total of 13 weeks. Basic training is 8 weeks which feel much longer! This is where you learn basic skills, marching in formation, Basic Marksmanship, Basic Combat operations and most of all Physical training. I also was here for my AIT which is advanced individual Training which is your MOS or job. My MOS was 12B Combat Engineer. We were taught all the things that would need to know at a basic skill level. Which included construction of a fighting position, how to emplace a mine field, construct wire obstacles and most of all how the use explosives.

...Relevance vs. Reliability – “Going back to the basics” In a recent Wall Street Journal article titled “A Scion Drives Toyota Back to Basics”, Toyota’s incoming president, Akio Toyoda, said that the company his grandfather founded 72 years ago has become too fancy for its own good. Mr. Toyoda maintains kakushin, or “revolutionary change”, spawns technological innovation that comes at a cost. His conclusion is that these increased production costs have led Toyota astray from its core ideas of thrift and efficiency. Consequently, Mr. Toyoda has called for a return to these core beliefs by going back to the basics. The basics of accounting are relevance and reliability. In a perfect world, asset valuation would always be equally relevant and reliable. The real world, however, requires accountants to choose between the two. Traditionally conservatism, which favors reliability over relevance, has won out. That is until recently when some kakushin hungry accountants decided this is the right time for a “revolutionary change” in financial reporting standards. Newly adopted FMV, or mark-to-market, requirements are evidence of this fundamental shift. Unfortunately, this departure from reliability to relevance could not have come at a worse time. The current credit crisis has brought these two principles to a dangerous crossroads where, like Aiko Toyoda, it is now the responsibility of the SEC, AICPA, and FASB to step in and go back to the basics by re-establishing a conservative...

...Back torment is a typical purpose behind nonappearance from work and specialist visits. Albeit back torment might be excruciating and uncomfortable, it is not generally genuine. Despite the fact that back torment can influence individuals of all ages, it is altogether more basic among grown-ups matured somewhere around 35 and 55 years. Specialists say that back torment is connected with the way our bones, muscles and tendons in our backs cooperate. Torment in the lower back might be connected to the hard lumbar spine, plates between the vertebrae, tendons around the spine and circles, spinal rope and nerves, lower back muscles, mid-region and pelvic inward organs, and the skin around the lumbar territory. Torment in the upper back might be because of scatters of the aorta, tumors in the mid-section, and spine irritation.A risk part is something which enhances the likelihood of working up a condition or disease. For example, heaviness on a...

...Through which command do you take back up? In order to back up a particular directory and its items, I would like to use rsync command. The basic syntax for using “$ rsync” command is as follows: #rsync –r src directory dst directory Above command creates the copy of a source directory to destination directory, recursively. The recursively means all the folders and subfolders are copied to the destination. Furthermore there are also other utilities for taking back up depending upon the required back up e.g. “tar” command is used to take back up of a directory by zipping it first and then unzip the zipped directory to targeted directory. 34. Define Ping? Ever heard about Ping of death attack? Ping command is used to check the connectivity of a device on the internet. Whether a device is online or not.

...personality and level of interest. The general approaches used in teaching P.E are the direct (formal/ teacher-centered) and the indirect (informal/ learner-centered) approach. As students grow, the amount and level of work should also change and increase. This will not only show growth but it will show that learning has taken place. Pupils need to be subjected to tasks that are from simple to complex. There are various methods to learn when pupils are progressing from simple to complex tasks. The first type is what is called the headstand. The headstand is one of the easiest skills to learn when starting gymnastics. It is also a skill that helps pupils to learn about balancing and tightening their body. This is also a good skill to learn the basic shape for the handstand. The Headstand position is described as a position in gymnastics or yoga, in which one supports oneself vertically on one's head with the hands braced for support on the floor or on a mat. How a...

Looking back at the history of women in this country, women have played very important role in the development of this country. Back in the 1800’s all women prisoners were held together with their children. Women were not given the basic needs that are required, not proper food, no medical assistance and no proper supervision. Women were treated very harshly in the prison, women were mostly taken advantage of, for example most of the women prisoners were sexually assaulted in the prison. Most of the women prisoners were given capital punishment and some lived in the crammed space. Most of the women prisoners were not taken care of, as most of them tried to commit suicide. If we look at the women’s prison now day. All the women prisoners are given their basic right, for example all women prisoners should be under the care of female guards, women prisoners should have some privacy, example women inmates are separate from the male inmates and women prisoners sleep separately.
