* Omega-3 may be good for your mood *
Having salmon for dinner is not just good for your heart, it may also improve
your disposition, according to a University of Pittsburgh study. It found that
omega-3 fatty acids, which are plentiful in fatty fish like salmon, seem to
affect areas of the brain associated with emotion.
Dr. Sarah M. Conklin presented the findings in Budapest, Hungary at the American
Psychosomatic Society's annual meeting.

* Chained to your desk? Beware blood clots: Office workers face higher risk of
DVT than airplane passengers, study finds *
Office workers glued to computer screens are at greater risk of deadly blood
clots forming in their legs than long-distance air travelers, the author of a
New Zealand study on thrombosis said Monday.
The study found that 34 percent of patients admitted to hospitals with blood
clots had been seated at work for long periods, its leader, Prof. Richard
Beasley of New Zealand's privately funded Medical Research Institute, told The
Associated Press.

* Yoga *
Pain is without doubt an integral part of yoga practice. But is it really
something that should be avoided at all costs? Of course pain is our body's way
of telling us that it's not comfortable with the posture we're holding.
Throughout our practice we should be conscious and listen to our body's
messages. To really start gaining the benefits of yoga we need to practice to
make the unbearable bearable.

our yoga practice" - By Jez Heath, go to

* Motivation *
Training and preparation are fundamental to the individuals who make up a
winning team whether it's a family or a business. For an athlete, you have to be
at your best. You build your body up and get it strong to take the pounding. So,
when it's time to play the games on Sunday, you know, as an athlete, you can
give it your all. Do what you have to do to get the best out of yourself.

* Exercise *
Warning: this style of workout is WAY different than anything you've ever tried
before and may result in a dramatically leaner, stronger body so that your
friends no longer recognize you in a matter of weeks!
Alright, I exaggerated about your friends recognizing you, but this workout is
still great for busy people that always use the excuse that they don't have time
to go to the gym, or even for the normal gym rat to try out for a few weeks to
break out of a plateau.

*** Book Review: Small-Batch Baking: When Just Enough for 1 or 2...Is Just
Enough! – By Debby Maugans Nakos ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Even the most enthusiastic home bakers may admit there are times when they
really only need a few muffins for breakfast or a couple of cream puffs for a
dinner party--not a dozen or more of each. When standard recipes won't reduce
neatly (how do you halve an egg, for example?), frustration ensues.
Nakos, a Shape, Southern Living and Cooking Light contributor, takes more than
250 classic cakes, pies, cookies, cobblers, puddings, and breads and downsizes
their proportions to yield just the right number of goodies for small families,
singles, newlyweds, empty-nesters, or the leftovers-averse (do such people
exist?). Nakos certainly is creative: she uses tin cans to bake two-layer
coconut cakes and chocolate cakes, jumbo muffin tins for Peach Pie and Pineapple
Upside-Down Cake, and small loaf pans for Moist Fudgy Brownies. Meanwhile, a
full-size loaf pan turns out Mississippi Mud Cake or Gingerbread Roulade, and
one regular baking sheet does the job for Cinnamon Hazelnut Biscotti.
Small-batch baking as formulated by Nakos is liberating: with quick mixing,
baking, and clean-up times, the whole process of producing, say, eight Pecan
Snowball Cookies for tea time, or two Honey Apple Oatmeal Crisps for a sweet
breakfast, is less overwhelming. (Copyright © Reed Business Information, a
