Prevention is the best medicine.

This argument makes sense to me:

“Why would it drive private insurance out of business?” Obama said of the proposed public option. If private insurers “tell us that they’re offering a good deal, then why is it that the government, which they say can’t run anything, suddenly is going to drive them out of business? That’s not logical.”

The Republican counter-argument I have a problem with:

The Republican National Committee released a cable-TV ad saying Obama’s insurance plan would result in “putting government bureaucrats in charge instead of patients and their doctors.”

My problem is that even now we have bureaucrats deciding who gets what treatment. We all know that private health insurance companies want to make money. Sometimes that means denying certain treatments because they are expensive.

Pretty tough finding information on Vin Diesel’s workouts. Ive gathered online that he likes free weights, compound movements, yoga, and pilates.

I also found that he has trained in MMA, specifically Kali.

Q: What is your Riddick workout?

VIN: The Riddick workout started before I went up there. I was training with a UFC guy, Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter. I got up there two months early and started training in a fighting style called Kali, which originated in Spain and was then brought to the Philippines by Spanish traders. It’s a fighting style that’s just now beginning to catch wind. It’s a fighting style that calls for ambidextrous, two-handed fighting. And that’s what we studied. I went up two months early to learn this fighting style.

Seems to me that this will help with he chiseled look cause you burn lots of calories training combat sports and Vin Diesel obviously has low bodyfat for that physique. I don’t know what he did to build muscle and proportion his body but I’m still looking.

To me, Vin Diesel’s body is not all that different from Ross Enemait’s body.

This guy is a trainer who also likes free weights and compound movements. I have all three of his books and recommend them.

This article on how many consumers are misled by supplement companies seems to be indirectly making two suggestions:

1. The author trusts Consumer Lab - they don’t test everything but they test some products and find ones that are dishonest about labeling or whatever.

2. The author trusts Dr. Scott Connely, inventor of MetRX. He has recently launched a new supplement company.
