Exercise ? Health and Fitness | Sports, Health Guide by ...

Exercise is one thing that most people in the world aren?t doing enough of. Health is affected negatively by the lack of exercise and fitness is usually determined in levels. Someone?s fitness level will usually tell you how in shape or healthy that person is. So we can see that these three topics all go hand in hand in the well being of a persons body.

The human body is capable of adapting to any stresses that it is put under. When you exercise you are exerting more energy and the muscles have to work harder than they are used to which results in them getting sore. A muscle is sore because it has micro tares and it is repairing them which will result in a stronger muscle.

Being healthy is a combination of fitness and nutrition. Studies are now showing that Americans are overweight more so because of poor nutrition choices rather than lack of exercise.

But a change in both diet and workout will benefit overweight people to much greater extent than either one alone.

Here are some tips to live a healthier lifestyle. Eat fish at least 2 times per week. The health benefits from doing this are amazing! I can?t stress the importance of eating fish enough. It improves your cholesterol dramatically while providing a meal low in fat and high in protein. Eat 5 times in a day and eat fruit everyday. Most people go days without a piece of fruit. If you don?t have fruit go to the store now and buy fruit and juice that contains 100% fruit juice.

Leadership Advice For New Managers - Five Tips to Advance Your ...

'; div.innerHTML = summary; } //]]> Leadership Advice For New Managers - Five Tips to Advance Your Career Leadership Advice For New Managers - Five Tips to Advance Your Career

Old Wisdom: Specialize

Newly appointed managers and business leaders often wonder how they can best create a great personal brand and advance their careers. Old wisdom was to develop an in-depth and specific skill set: become a master at one thing. But a newer strategy is taking hold in many large global organizations: be a Jack (or Jill) of All Trades, not a deep specialist.

New Wisdom: Develop a Broad Based Skill Set

We all know the expression, a Jack of All Trades and a Master of None. It is certainly not a phrase we want associated with our business persona.  But what if we varied the expression: be a Jack of All Trades AND a Master of One.  In other words be a business leader who has a specialty, but also a knowledge in a variety of areas critical to the success of your company. What an asset you would be to your organization.

There was a time in business when there was a rush to be a specialist: a market ing manager, for example. The next step was to get even more specialized: be a brand marketing manager, then more specialized still--be a brand marketing manager specializing in SEO! These kind of specialized roles can play a critical part in your career.  And equally important, this kind of job specialization is crucial to business success and to the health of the organization.

Many Organizations Seek Generalists

But  today, as you advance up the ladder into management, there is a broader strategy to consider:  develop your area of expertise but also know enough about your organization so you can step up and contribute to other parts of the business.  Today, many innovative large companies encourage rotating employees so they can develop a broad skill base. For some organizations, part of their succession plan is to insure that top managers gain expertise in a variety of areas crucial to the health of their organization. In other words, they are looking for qualified generalists.

Five Tips for Climbing the Career Ladder

With that in mind, here are some tips for managers and business leaders seeking advancement within their organizations:

1. Gain a broad working knowledge of your organization. For example, if you are in marketing, educate yourself in finance, in sales, in Human Resources or in areas of corporate governance or strategy. Get to know lines of business outside of your specialty.

2. Each business quarter, target one area outside of your comfort zone, and educate yourself. Read journals, attend meetings and associate with others who have skills in this new area of interest.

3.  Keep an ear to the latest trends outside of your area of expertise. This means reading a broad base of business magazines and journals, not just niche publications.

4.  In meetings, speak up and comment on topics that are not directly related to your area of specialization (remembering to only comment when you can add value). It is important that others in your organization see and recognize that you have interest and knowledge outside of your specialty.

5.  Finally, find a mentor outside of your department-someone who can give you some in-depth and insider insights into another area critical to the growth of your company.

Ultimately, you'll not just be preparing yourself to be a future leader who can impact your organization, you'll be preparing yourself to be a more well-rounded contributing member of society!

Speedy ions could add zip to quantum computers

ScienceDaily (Aug. 13, 2012) ? Take that, sports cars! Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) can accelerate their beryllium ions from zero to 100 miles per hour and stop them in just a few microseconds. What's more, the ions come to a complete stop and hardly feel the effects of the ride. And they're not just good for submicroscopic racing -- NIST physicists think their zippy ions may be useful in future quantum computers.

The ions (electrically charged atoms) travel 100 times faster than was possible before across a few hundred micrometers in an ion trap -- a single ion can go 370 micrometers in 8 microseconds, to be exact (about 100 miles per hour.)

Although ions can go much faster in accelerators, the NIST ions demonstrate precision control of fast acceleration and sudden stops in an ion trap. A close analogy is a marble resting at the bottom of a bowl, and the bowl suddenly accelerating (see animation). During the transport, the marble will oscillate back and forth relative to the center of the bowl. If the bowl is suddenly stopped at the right time, the marble will come to rest together with the bowl. Furthermore, the NIST researchers assured that their atomic marble's electron energy levels are not affected, which is important for a quantum computer, where information stored in these energy levels would need to be moved around without compromising the information content.

For a quantum computer to solve important problems that are intractable today, the information carried by many quantum bits, or qubits, needs to be moved around in the processor. With ion qubits, this can be accomplished by physically moving the ions. In the past, moving ions took much longer than the duration of logic operations on the ions. Now these timescales are nearly equivalent. This reduces processing overhead, making it possible to move ions and prepare them for reuse much faster than before.

As described in Physical Review Letters, NIST researchers cooled trapped ions to their lowest quantum energy state of motion and, in separate experiments, transported one and two ions across hundreds of micrometers in a multi-zone trap. Rapid acceleration excites the ions' oscillatory motion, which is undesirable, but researchers controlled the deceleration well enough to return the ions to their original quantum state when they came to a stop. A research group from Mainz, Germany, reports similar results.

The secret to the speed and control is custom electronics. NIST researcher Ryan Bowler used fast FPGA (field programmable gate array) technology to program the voltage levels and durations applied to various electrodes in the ion trap. The smooth voltage supply can move the ions very fast while also keeping them from getting too excited.

With advances in precision control, researchers think ions could be transported even more quickly and yet still return to their original quantum states when they stop. Researchers must also continue to work on the many practical challenges, such as suppressing unwanted heating of the ion motion from noisy electric fields in the environment. The research is supported by the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, National Security Agency, Office of Naval Research, and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

A Leading Health Insurer in Michigan Selects MetricStream for ...

PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 7, 2012 ? /PRNewswire/ ? MetricStream, the market leader in enterprise-wide Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions, today announced that a leading health insurer has selected MetricStream to implement an integrated GRC solution which will align with the unified GRC strategy of the company and enable proactive management of its regulatory compliance, risk management and IT governance goals.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) has changed the way health plan providers conduct their business. Already highly regulated by state and federal guidelines, payers will now have their entire book of business regulated by the federal government. Mitigating risks of non-compliance with evolving regulations is a top priority in the industry today and is driving the adoption of GRC solutions.

The health insurer is among several other regional health insurance providers that have partnered with MetricStream to effectively respond to rapidly changing regulatory and market requirements. Headquartered in Michigan, the company provides health benefits to millions of members.

Being cognizant of the importance of an integrated GRC technology framework, the company conducted comprehensive assessments of hand-picked vendors.#xA0; MetricStream was found to fully meet the companys business requirements, with solutions that are closely aligned to industry standards.#xA0; Other factors influencing the selection were MetricStreams holistic approach to GRC and its domain expertise in healthcare.#xA0; Additionally, MetricStream received excellent feedback from the health insurers industry peers who have successfully leveraged the MetricStream GRC solution to achieve their goals.

MetricStream will enable the health insurer to proactively meet compliance goals, successfully manage changes in industry regulations, and better align its GRC programs with its business strategy.

MetricStreams integrated GRC solution will replace a number of shared drives, stand-alone software applications, internal systems and manual processes, enabling various departments in the company to adopt an integrated and unified approach to enterprise-wide GRC management.

MetricStream will support the health insurer in automating the complete range of GRC processes. The solution will also help enhance compliance with a multitude of regulatory requirements such as CMS Medicare and Medicaid requirements, OIG mandates, HIPAA, FDA, PCI and ISO 27001. Robust incident tracking and reporting capabilities will help the company manage HIPAA Privacy and Security compliance breaches as well as fraud, waste and abuse.

The solution will enable the company to proactively embed risk management in the enterprise, thereby meeting evolving regulatory and rating agency requirements. It will also help increase risk management effectiveness and efficiency and offer the flexibility to adopt any of the standard risk management frameworks.

Integration with threat and vulnerability systems such as Qualys, nCircle and Nessus will enable the company to quickly identify and report vulnerabilities affecting business-critical assets and map security issues to business applications. The company will also be able to aggregate and rollup risk information across the enterprise for proactive mitigation and assured compliance with IT standards and regulations for data governance, security and privacy.

The alignment of GRC with business strategy will result in improved business performance for the health insurer. This approach will integrate enterprise GRC and IT governance on a common enterprise-wide platform, enabling accurate correlation of IT, security and business risks.

Apple releases iOS 6 beta 4 to developers

Apple releases iOS 6 beta 4 to developers

Apple has just released iOS 6 beta 4 (10A5376e) for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad to developers. iOS 6 beta 4 is currently available to paid developers via Apple's developer portal, developer.apple.com and as an over-the-air (OTA) software update via Settings, General, Software Update on iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.

iOS 6 was introduced at WWDC 2012 on Monday, June 11. Beta 2 was released on two weeks later on Monday, June 25. Beta 3 was released three week later on Monday, July 16. Now, Beta 4 has followed 3 weeks after that. While slightly longer between releases, iOS 6 is sticking to a more regular, Monday schedule than last year.

We previous looked at how many betas there might be for iOS 6, using past release schedules as checkpoints, and how iOS 6's flagship features compare to those of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, Windows Phone 8, and Blackberry 10.

If reports of a September 12, 2012 Apple special event are accurate, that will likely be the date for an iOS 6 Gold Master (GM) seed for developers, with general public release following on or around September 19, shortly before the new iPhone 5 launch rumored for September 21.

Thanks Ronald!

Surprise! Apple?s Design Expert Testifies That Most Galaxy Devices Infringe Apple Patents, Trade Dress

Apple?s expert witness, Peter Bressler, adjunct associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania (and president of the Industrial Designers Society of America between 1989 to 1990), essentially confirmed everything Apple has asserted against Samsung in relation to design patents (so far ? we just broke for lunch).

Apple is alleging infringement on four design-related patents. Two of them relate to the iPhone, one the iPad, and one on the icon grid layout of iOS. Setting the iOS patent aside for a moment, Apple?s lawyer walked Peter Bressler through each of Apple?s iPhone and iPad related design patents.

The patent expert, who has been called as an expert witness in seven different trials, affirmed everything Apple had originally accused Samsung of, claiming that about a dozen devices, including Samsung?s Galaxy S, Galaxy S II, and Galaxy Tabs, infringe Apple?s three patents.

Samsung has argued before that there is prior art with regards to the USD618,677 patent, which covers the flat front, rectangular shape, curved corners and speaker grill of the phone. Mr. Bressler explained the prior art argument and process:

The point of this process is to examine the prior art you can find. Whatever is most like the ?677 patent. You compare the patented design to the design in the closest prior art and try to determine the most significant differences.

With Samsung?s included prior art, images from a 2005 Sharp design, Bressler found enough difference to agree with Apple that the art has no bearing on Apple?s patent.

Apple?s counsel also asked about the back of the Galaxy S 4G, as an example, with regards to the ?677 patent. The Galaxy S 4G has a small hump on the back on both the top and the bottom, though according to Mr. Bressler, the back is not under consideration since the ?677 patent only covers the front of the device.

The conversation then moved to Apple?s trade dress claims. Trade dress centers more around the general aesthetic of a brand?s products that differentiate them in the market. Think McDonald?s golden arches. Apple is asserting one trade dress registration which covers both the iPad and iPhone?s distinctly ?Apple? design.

Mr. Bressler argued that there are plenty of alternative designs to both the phone and the tablet that would still achieve the same functionality.

Hyundai Motor's South Korean union says to resume partial strike

SEOUL (Reuters) - Hyundai Motor's labor union in South Korea plans to stage a partial strike for six days this week and next week, union spokesman Kwon Oh-il said on Tuesday, citing little progress in wage talks with the management.

Workers at Hyundai Motor in South Korea staged their first strike in four years on July 13 and July 20 as annual wage talks stalled amid disagreements over scrapping overnight shifts and other matters.
