The holidays are nearly here! But that doesn’t mean your fitness goals are unobtainable. Instead, feast your eyes on TrainerDiva’s Top 5 Holiday Fit Tips that will help you resist temptation and keep you looking fabulous right through 2010!

5.) Decide What To Buy

We all know how tempting it is to walk into a coffee or candy shop, especially during the holiday season. So here’s your plan of action: decide what you want before you go in and stick to it. Just order your coffee and get out of there — fast!

4.) Forgiveness Is Key

 It is difficult to avoid overeating during the holidays. If you do slip up now and then, don’t beat yourself up for it…it’s not worth it. Remember that maintaining a healthy diet throughout the holidays takes practice. Forgive yourself and make sure your next meal or snack is a healthy one.

3.) Drink Plenty of H20

 Many people mistake mild dehydration with hunger, so drinking plenty of water is a must! Have a glass or two before you start drinking alcoholic beverages, and have one in between drinks to slow down your alcohol consumption as well.

2.) Don’t Skip Meals

 Many people believe that if they skip breakfast or lunch, they can save up all of those calories for the holiday party that night. That sounds like a good idea, but skipping meals actually slows down your metabolism and can make you feel tired. Plus, when you are really hungry and surrounded by high-calorie holiday treats, you may very easily consume more calories than the ones you skipped earlier in the day.

1.) Keep Exercising!!!!

 Although the holidays are a hectic time, keep your TrainerDiva appointments and be sure to do your cardio to help ensure that the occasional treat won’t land permanently on your thighs or belly. Even if you are so busy that you have to cut your workout time in half, continuing to work out keeps you in the exercise habit. Once you quit your exercise routine, it can be very difficult to start up again — nevermind the weight you can gain from taking a hiatus.

Have a happy and healthy holiday!

The Atlanta Falcons were no match for the Philadelphia Eagles today.  The Falcons finally scored at the very end of the game.  Kinda felt like that was a gimme.  Otherwise it would have been a total shut-out.

Michael Vick received alot of support in Atlanta.  Many people cheered and held up signs in support.  Vicki got his first NFL touchdown since returning.  Donovan got a break and stood on the sidelines.

I must say I am impressed at the amount of support Donovan McNabb is giving Michael Vick.  Looks like he is happy to share the limelight with Vick and was gave Michael a big hug after he threw the scoring pass. 

Might we see a changing of the guard here?  Time will tell.

Just lovely…

Inspiration galore after the jump. (Seriously, it’s enough to make your heart stop.)

Just in from Charles Kerchner, lead plaintiff in the Kerchner V Obama & Congress lawsuit, November 25, 2009.

“25 Nov 2009 -  For Immediate Release

There is activity in the Kerchner v Obama & Congress lawsuit. The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia PA has issued a Briefing Notice schedule for the Kerchner v Obama & Congress case.

U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals Briefing Notice Issued for Kerchner v Obama & Congress Lawsuit:
http://puzo1.blogspot.com/2009/11/kerchner-v-obama-congress-3rd-circuit.html

Brief due dates for the Appeal are now set for 4 Jan 2010. We look forward to moving ahead with this very important constitutional case along the legal pathway to the ultimate decision maker for this historic and precedence setting lawsuit, the U.S. Supreme Court. They will determine the answer to the pressing legal question of what is a “natural born Citizen” of the USA per Article II constitutional standards and did Obama and the U.S. Congress violate the Constitution and statutory laws and my constitutional rights during the 2008 election cycle. And, the Supreme Court will also be asked to refer their legal definition to Congress to determine if Obama meets that legal ruled definition. I say Obama does not meet the founders and framers intent for the Article II eligibility clause. I say Obama is a deceiver and a usurper.

In the interim in addition to our internet efforts, we are running educational advertorials in print media to inform the general public of the issues.  See an example attached.  More examples can be seen at: http://www.kerchner.com/protectourliberty/advertorials.htm

         It was an honor to participate in this year’s World Diabetes Day 2009 at Temple School of Podiatric Medicine in Philadelphia! 

[Pictured from left to right is Elena Ciccotelli of TrainerDiva, Inc., Mayor Michael Nutter of Philadelphia, and Dr. Kathya Zinszer of Temple School of Podiatric Medicine.]

                                           Did you know?

• 23.6 million children and adults in the US live with diabetes. This is 7.8% of the population.

• 57 million Americans have prediabetes, putting them at risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes.

• Adults with diabetes have heart disease death rates about 2 to 4 times higher than adults without diabetes.

         With alarming statistics such as these at the forefront of conversation last Saturday, the question is, what do we do about it? How do we tame the rapid growth of this epidemic?

          The short answer to this question, (yet only a piece of the puzzle) is unanimous and resounding….EXERCISE! Easier said than done? Yes. Impossible? Of course not!

          Instead of listing the numerous benefits of exercise for diabetics, it seems more appropriate to highlight an individual who has experienced these benefits first-hand. In the spirit of success, Lois, a TrainerDiva client since September 2008, truly illustrates that exercise is potent medicine!

 “In the year that I’ve been training with TrainerDiva, Inc. I’ve lost 40 pounds, dropped my usage of insulin from 40 plus units a day to about 10 units a day and improved my hemoglobin A1C levels tremendously.  I believe that it won’t be long before I’ll be totally insulin-free. Training on a regular basis has also increased my energy and strength, both of which have helped me to stay active as a diabetic. But what I find to be the most beneficial is that training with TrainerDiva, Inc. helps me stay accountable, which is extremely crucial as I continue on my journey of health.  It is one thing to diet and lose weight but it is another to learn how to make exercise and strength training a part of your lifestyle.  I know that with TrainerDiva, Inc. I will continue to stay focused and become as healthy as I can, eliminating the devastating effects of diabetes.”

         We are looking forward to participating in World Diabetes Day next year to help increase diabetes awareness and provide practical solutions for your training concerns!

Before Thanksgiving Eve 2004, the last time I had been to central Philadelphia’s “Shampoo” nightclub was for a Halloween costume party. I had gone as Jim Carrey’s “Ace Ventura” character while Squall added a folded index card to the collar of his black wardrobe and went as a priest. It was enjoyable, except for the 30something-year-old fairy who mistook Squall and I as fairies.

Recently, I and Squall, along with our friends Navy and SuperFan, decided to return to the popular downtown venue on its weekly “Goth/80s night” which, we later figured out, failed to differ from the Halloween costume party, attire-wise. Specifically, our outing occurred on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, which is of course one of the biggest “party nights” of the calendar year, a day when people all across the country imbibe enough alcohol to float an oil tanker on, possibly to prepare for having to deal with extended family members during the following day’s turkey feast. Naturally (meaning stupidly), my then-24-year-old ass continued its staunch sobriety streak, which of course meant that I got to witness, for the umpteenth time, Squall, Navy, and SuperFan each exchanging the better part of $50 for slurred speech and eventual hangovers.

We arrived at the club shortly after 10PM, which also happened to be the numerical figure of our cover charge. As nighttime hours progressed whilst friends’ livers (further) deteriorated, we became aware that the dress shirts, nice sweaters, and khaki pants of our collective wardrobe slowly but surely pigeonholed us in a minority that consisted of, well, us. Apparently, the dress code that night called for clothes…or anything somewhat resembling clothes…of any kind whatsoever. One fellow I saw there had chosen to don himself in a black outfit complete with a puffy white shirt, not unlike what you would normally see Declaration of Independence signers dressed in. Another looked like he had shopped for the evening’s attire at the same location Tim Burton had purchased Johnny Depp’s leather, zipper-encrusted “Edward Scissorhands” costume from. However, it was the people donning themselves in so-called “Goth” fashions who made up the majority. I saw no trace whatsoever of 1980s attire. Not a single sideways ponytail, leg warmer, “Smurfs” T-shirt, etc. Nothing.

Remember those kids in high school who wore lacy black outfits all the time, even in the pool, and had faces that were so pale that they regularly blended in with poster board? I sure as hell do, and I avoided them like George W. Bush would an IQ test because I was scared to death that one of them would put some kind of spell on me upon learning that I was unable to name at least three Marilyn Manson songs. Well, these (excuses for) people, whom we ignorant, jeans-clad, suburban high schoolers affectionately called “freaks,” filled every available and unavailable corner of Shampoo that night in a giant “Fuck You” to the building’s fire safety capacity rules. In between tequila sunrises, Squall sadly looked around at the 18-and-over crowd and remarked, “You would think that people would have given up dressing and acting like that the older they got.” I would have blinked in surprise if I wasn’t deeply engrossed in a game on my cell phone, for the above statement was one of the most insightful and truthful thoughts to have ever been uttered by Squall, drunk or sober!

As we squeezed our way through the club’s multiple dance floors, all of which resembled the top deck of the Titanic when the last lifeboat was leaving, Squall and I conveniently forgot the fact that we willingly made the 20-mile round trip here and that no one held a gun to our heads upon paying admission when we decided that this wasted outing was all Navy’s fault. Apparently (which means “according to drunken claims made by Squall”), Navy took great pleasure in attending Goth-themed parties such as these. How did he reach this logical deduction? Maybe it was due to the fact that, back when we were deciding what to do on this famed Wednesday, Navy subtly hinted, “Dude, we should go to Shampoo because it’s Goth night and there’s all these hot Goth girls there.” Looking back, I can’t say as I recall seeing many “hot” girls, Goth or not, primarily because Shampoo, which doubles as a gay hotspot some nights, was chock full of, for lack of a better term, humans whose genders weren’t easily identifiable. This did not seem to faze our chum Navy, as the non-Navy three of us regularly saw him downing drink after drink while watching groups of Goth people sitting around and doing the same. He got a tad irritated when I pointed out that he could have done the exact same thing at any local shopping mall for free and thus felt compelled to relieve his drunken irritability towards my insight later on at South Philadelphia’s Penrose Diner, when he helped break up a fistfight between two other drunken patrons. He chastised Navy, SuperFan, and I for our negative outlook on the evening, claiming to have made out/danced/slept with hordes of Goth girls, conveniently when none of us were around.

All in all, the night at Shampoo was definitely an interesting one and, despite my rants, I definitely plan to return there once I become hooked on marijuana and thus fit in more.

Today (Wednesday), I will be focusing my thoughts on the ever-growing popular concept of advertising (as evidenced in the latter two “Austin Powers” movies). Specifically, I would like to call attention to some of our nation’s most bizarre forms of ads or, as I like to call it because it sounds clever and witty, “odd-vertising.” This piece will discuss three places I recently saw advertisements that I deemed odd. Keep in mind, however, that there is a fine line between what constitutes an oddly-placed ad and what is simply a desperately-placed ad, just like there is a fine line between quiet sanity and homicidal rage, which I myself am about to cross if the crazy bastard sitting across from me on the train as I write these words doesn’t stop talking to the damn window every ten seconds. For example, people may view an ad placed during the world network premiere of “Alexander” as odd or bizarre, when in all reality it is really nothing more than a desperate and pathetic move. Also, the fact that wireless phone service companies agree to sponsor movie theater messages telling you to silence your cell phones is not odd, but rather just plain stupid.

The first form of odd-vertising I saw was at a local diner, which was a part of my home township until a fire in its kitchen gave the nearby Dennys the upper hand in immediate area restaurants. As you are probably aware, buildings gutted by fire normally have their windows boarded up with large wooden slabs in the days, months, eras, etc. following the inferno. I never understood the point behind this, seeing as how wood is rather flammable and could easily be re-ignited by forgotten smoldering embers that the firefighters overlooked in their rush to quell the blaze so they could get back to drinking at the station. At least, I never understood the point of boarded-up windows until recently: to advertise the wood’s contractor. Seriously. The wooden slabs boarding up the windows of the township’s (former) local diner is prominently stamped with the name and number of a contractor. I’m not exactly sure what audience this contractor is hoping to seize, but, by the same token, it is a pretty ingenious way to show off exactly what he can do. I mean, he won’t get a a lot of calls for, say, building a house thanks to this form of “odd-vertising.”

I came across Example #2 while urinating…meaning not only did I earn another form of odd-vertising to enhance my point, but also earned the “Most Disgusting Sentence Beginning” Award, which was formerly held by the writer of the screenplay for “American Beauty,” which, if you have seen the Oscar-winning flick, has as its first sentence of dialogue “There I was, masturbating in the shower.” Nevertheless, the odd form of advertising in this instance was located on, seriously, a urinal pad. It wasn’t for a product but rather was the bland 1980s-era public service message “Say No To Drugs” followed by a 1-800 number in case, I don’t know, someone who the pisser knows says “yes” to drugs. No (further) offense, but if you take suggestions and phone numbers from a urinal pad, you have definitely got to be on SOMETHING not made from legal substances. Besides, doesn’t the mere fact that you’re literally pissing on the slogan pretty much kill the intent of the message?

The final form of odd-vertising that I can currently think of caught my eye at South Philadelphia’s Wachovia Spectrum several years back. I was there finishing up my self-guided walk-through tour of Lynton Harris’ “Nightmares on Broad Street” Halloween attraction which had used the sporting arena as its home base for most of October 2004. Striding quickly past the “Nightmares on Broad Street” souvenir vendors lining the Spectrum’s concourse (where the tour coincidentally ended), I spotted a rather oddly-colored turnstile, which is of course that revolving three-pronged object seen at the gates of most high-crowd places. Closer inspection revealed that the turnstile’s three prongs were actually covered with “Philadelphia Inquirer” and “Philadelphia Daily News” logos; these are obviously two large newspapers here in the City of Brotherly Love that apparently feel the need to corner the turnstile-passing-through market. I cannot recall any instance wherein I or anything human made their choice of newspaper based upon what they observed on the oversized counter granting them access to their overpriced sporting event.

In conclusion, I invite everyone, living and dead, to share with me any and all forms of oddly-placed ads you have come across while strolling around town or urinating. Sell-out nation that we are, I honestly doubt that advertisers did not stop at simply turnstiles, urinal pads, and boarded-up windows.

All of his life he had just been hoping
to catch a foul ball off of a Phillies’ bat.
As a kid he remembers sitting
in Section 514, with his Pop,
and watching a boy his age, in 218,
make a clean catch, one off Rose’s bat
no bunch of other little pack-rats,
scrabbling around in the seats for a loose ball,
a perfect form catch
like he had been taught to make in right field. 

All these years, nothing had come even close.
Hey, what’s the probability anyway?
He knew the statistics, just
like he recalculated each Phillies’ batting average
after the games. 

There was once when his Pop and he
sat in the first row of the Upper Deck,
the ball came sailing towards them
and he knew, that if he reached over the railing,
stretched as far as his small frame
would permit, that he could have had a chance
to catch it, but he was intimidated by that railing,
and the height. Only tepidly extended his arm
and just missed. 

Today, 20 years later, his Pop is gone
he sat with his 3 year old daughter
who wore a pink baseball cap.
He was sharing his memories with her -
and making her own,
when all of a sudden, he heard the crack
looked up and saw the ball heading his way
no time to put on his glove, which he still carried with him.
He reached up and made a fatherly, bare
handed catch. He knew inside his heart
that this should mean as much to her, as to him.
She would be waiting for this he was sure
the way he had all his life.
His long time dream reached. 

He took the prize and shared it with her
handing it over.
She turned, wanting to please her Pop
the same way a catch by him
would have swelled up pride in his own dad,
and with one mighty heave
tossed the ball back onto the field. 

One, not a father, might have wondered about
this frustrating moment, unexpected turn.
A lifetime dream lost, irretrievably.
He, in fact, was proud,
hugged her to make this moment his own,
the joy in her face – proving to her Pop
that she could do it, was all that he needed -
from the Ball that Got Away.

Ray Brown

An Englishman named George Boone on this date, 10/10/1717, arrived with his family at Philadelphia, PA.  They were Quakers (Society of Friends) arriving at the “capital” of American “Quakerism.”  They had departed from England (Devon) on August 17^th. 

His son, Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan’s marriage was “decently accomplished” by Quaker ceremony the seventh month, twenty-third day in 1720 (7/23/1720).  Their sixth son, Daniel, was the famous “Daniel Boone,” born 11/2/1734. 

Daniel was so successive in understanding Indians because of his grandparents and parents’ Quaker faith.  Friends (Quakers) treated Indians fairly and traded with them and thus Daniel got to learn Indian ways from peaceful Pennsylvania Red men.

It is sadly true that Daniel killed his share of Indians but sources will show that he did not enjoy this carnage and that he also saved Indian life.  This all started 10/10/1717 – ought to be easy to remember 10, 10, 17, 17.

PROBABLY NOT RELATED: although of Scotch-Irish ancestry:

I stumbled across this first obituary and decided to do a little research because I knew we had a Laura Maud (Margaret) Hineman married to an Edwin Rankin in our HINEMAN tree. This is NOT that same couple, but I am wondering if they might be related to our Hineman family somehow.

UPDATE #3: There is a family tree on ancestry that lists parents of William B. Hindman as James Hindman and Clementina Messenkop, and lists Mary E. McMahon as William’s wife. It also gives William’s year of death as 1922, NJ.

I had run across the Clementina Hindman/Hineman when searching other Hineman lines, but so far, haven’t found a connection. These are Lancaster Co., PA Hindmans.

UPDATE #4: This should be the last update. I found the following book on Google that has a bio for James E. Hindman, wife, Clementina Messenkop:

History of Pittsburgh and environs: biographical, Volume 1
By American Historical Company LINK to read it.

NOTE: It has a picture of one James E. Hineman, perhaps, his grandson.
