POPSThe Ongoing Battle Over How the Web is Run There is a sinister side to ISPs having this kind of power. Proponents of net-neutrality"people who believe that everyone should be free to do whatever they please on the Internet without interference or limitation so long as they pay their monthly bill"forsee a future where ISPs will milk money out of their subscribers by instituting a tiered system of Intenet provision. People would only be able to access more bandwidth by paying more money. Even worse, they could “throttle,” or choke out the connection, of anyone found doing anything with their connection that they didn’t approve of, controlling the sites you were able to visit.

POPSRunning Doc: What to eat and drink pre- and post-workout French fries and chocolate milk, anyone? :lol: More: Post workout, a recovery drink that has carbs as well as added protein is best (in a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate:protein) so as to have amino acids available for repair. If you do not have a “recovery drink” be sure to eat protein in your next meal. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pretzels, tomato juice, and chocolate milk are all good food alternatives to the scientific drinks. Many runners I know love French fries and chocolate milk after a marathon—it works great and you deserve the treat!

POPSRunning Doc: Pre- and post-race tips for newbies
More: The day of your race, eat the same as you do on long training runs/walks…my favorite pre-race meal in training: the “Elvis Bagel” (peanut butter and banana on a bagel)… After the event, within 2 hours of finishing, have a recovery drink with protein in it. There are commercial products but chocolate milk works as good as all these scientific mixes… “Marathon feet” are common to get in the middle of the night post race…This again is due to inflammation of the soft tissue structures and easily preventable. When you get back to your home or hotel room, a simple immersion in an ice bath for 15 minutes will prevent this happening to you!… Do not get a post event massage until a minimum of 2 hours after finishing the race…Do not try any new stretches or have someone stretch you out again until 72 hours have passed… Give yourself two or three days of rest before starting your training again. Try a nice swim in these days, but allow yourself some recovery time.

POPSObama, Maurice Strong, Al Gore Key Players Cashing In.... continued
the man who was to become President of the United States of America. If we follow the time line on where Obama was during the funding of the Chicago Climate Exchange, he was still a professor at the University of Chicago Law School teaching constitutional law, with his law license becoming inactive a year later in 2002. It may be interesting to note that the Chicago Climate Exchange in spite of its hype, is a veritable rat’s nest of cronyism. The largest shareholder in the Exchange is Goldman Sachs. Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley is its honorary chairman, The Joyce Foundation, which funded the Exchange also funded money for John Ayers’ Chicago School Initiatives. John is the brother of William Ayers. What a flap when it was discovered that the senator from Chicago had nursed on Saul Alinsky’s milk, had his political career launched at a coffee party held by domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, and sat for 20 years, uncomplaining in front of the

POPSFun with Lelo The recession really hardly changed people’s sexual appetite. In fact, people are still going to stores buying stuffs to treat themselves – not really the basic things they need. For instance, one buys milk-chocolate and the other purchases the newest vibrator in town. You have got the right to lay back and treat yourself after a long week.
