Minimalist Running Shoes » 2011 – The Year Of Minimalist Shoes. The footwear industry is changing dramatically in the next 12 months because consumers are demanding lighter and different running shoes to help them prevent injuries and develop better running form. Running shoes with wider toebox, lightweight, close to zero heel to forefoot drop, and flexible will become the norm.

Runners are starting to understand more about running biomechanics and with more education from footwear manufacturers and fellow runners, the running shoe selection in 2011 will be stunning. Coming this fall and next spring, the floodgates will open with new minimalist shoe designs from every major running shoe manufacturer. While some manufacturers are just tweaking their existing line, shoe designers from start-ups and well-established brands like New Balance are not stripping as much as they can out of a shoe but building and delivering something closer to a barefoot experience. The Six Pack The Six Pack GoLite Footwear is a division of New England Footwear. The Dirty Dozen.

Better Health » Where Obama Is Right On Health Care Reform. July 31st, 2009 by Happy Hospitalist in Better Health Network, Health Policy Cost is the enemy here. via the WSJ blog “If we do not control these costs, we will not be able to control our deficit. If we do not reform health care, your premiums and out-of-pocket costs will continue to skyrocket. …if somebody told you that there is a plan out there that is guaranteed to double your health care costs over the next 10 years, that’s guaranteed to result in more Americans losing their health care, and that is by far the biggest contributor to our federal deficit, I think most people would be opposed to that.Well, that’s status quo.

That’s what we have right now.” Proponents and supporters can argue forever about whether this is the fault of the free market or the fault of too much or too little government. I happen to believe that what we have today is nothing more than an expected result of the government regulations put in place. Every insurance I am involved with has a beginning and an end.

The Health Care Blog: Health Care Reform: What do People Really Want? By HUMPHREY TAYLOR Humphrey Taylor is Chairman of The Harris Poll. Prior to joining Harris, Taylor worked in Britain where he conducted all of the private political polling for the Conservative Party and was a close adviser to Prime Minister Edward Heath in the 1970 campaign and subsequently to Margaret Thatcher. What do people really think about health care reform? When political issues are difficult and complicated, published polls sometimes confuse rather than enlighten the debate. While policy makers have to address the details of the proposed policies, most people do not. However, if you study all the polls, as opposed to cherry picking them as many politicians do, a clear picture of public opinion emerges: Most people are unhappy with the current health care system and favor reform. As a pollster, I believe that it is unreasonable to expect the public to understand health care reform policies because the issues are so tough and so complicated.

Inspirational Movies to get you MOVING!! « Think Tran. I love watching movies.. and all kinds, too. Dramas, documentaries, comedies, suspense thriller, horror, independent, etc etc.. I’ll watch them all. Minh doesn’t LOVE movies as much as I do.. actually, I often think that he only watches movies because I want to watch movies.

He gets sleepy/lazy afterwards, which does not make for a fun Minh. Some of my favorite movies to watch are the ones that inspire me to go out and do something… and when I say “do something”, I’m not talking about saving the world or making a difference. I’m talking about going out to climb a mountain, sign up for a ridiculous race, run the “Best Race Ever” , bike hundred of miles across the state/country/continent…. you get the picture.

So.. here’s a quick list of some of those movies that make me want to go out and do something… Maybe it’ll inspire you to go out and do something this year! Race Across the Sky (2009 or 2010) No surprise that this movie would make the cut of inspirational films. Ride the Divide (2010) Vibram Five Fingers: Discover the Barefooting Alternative.
