Save The Children – Nepal

Please Help and Donate!

Save The Children – Nepal Relief

http://www.savethechildren.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=1110796&supid=380297847

Hour by hour, Save the Children’s relief in earthquake-shattered Nepal grows stronger. But every hour also brings news of children in desperate need as rescue workers and our staff reach battered villages and communities.
Today, our teams distributed tarps that families will use to shelter themselves from the weather. Families with babies received toddler clothing, socks, hats, and blankets to keep these precious children warm. We are rushing other supplies to the scene from inside and outside Nepal. And our international relief experts are enroute to help our local staff scale up these efforts to meet the tremendous needs.

You’ve likely seen the terrible photos of the damage. Imagine being a child whose family has lost their home…trying to understand what’s happened and what tomorrow will bring.

Tomorrow may bring a Save the Children team with lifesaving relief and support that allows children to feel safe and secure again…your gift will help make this possible for girls and boys who wait for someone to care.

I know you do care. And that’s why I’m hoping you’ll join so many of our friends, sponsors and other donors who’ve made a gift to our earthquake relief.

Stabilizing and rotating through the core and spine creates initial momentum and puts the upper extremities in a position of mechanical advantage, allowing, for greater overall force output and efficiency form the movement. Swimming is not much different from baseball and golf in this way: in a ll of these sports, pelvic rotation initiates spinal rotation, followed by upper extremity action.

I need 200 of my friends to donate at least $20 dollars to the foundation on my behalf. I need to meet my quota. So, don’t go out drinking this weekend and put up $20 dollars for the children. This time around I need your help. As you all are aware we train for a cause and work hard at it. This time around I am doing it for the Children… literally. So, I’m racing in this year’s IRONMAN in Woodlands, TX! By participating in this event, you already know that I am a serious athlete, because i have done 18 of them. If you help me reach my fundraising goal, together we will help Save the Children provide life-saving, life-nurturing programs to children all over the world, including right here in the United States! I need your help to reach my fundraising goal! $100 can help stock a library for schools in the U.S. $150 can help provide 3 goats to families in need. $200 can help provide ready-to-use food to help save malnourished children. $300 can help provide healthcare essentials to a school clinic serving hundreds of children in 35 schools. Please support my participation in the 2015 Ironman Texas benefiting save the Children. I have made a commitment to raise at least $5,000, and I need your help to get there.

Why gobbling down a simple snack within a half-hour of a hard workout is crucial to getting your money’s worth from hard training. Refuel during the post-workout recovery window to supercharge your next session.

It’s easy to do-drive to meet a group for a hard workout, spend several minutes chatting afterward, then by the time you make it home to choke down a protein shake, you’ve already missed your chance for optimal refueling. The first few minutes after a workout are critical for replenishing your glycogen stores and repairing your muscles-missing out could hurt the quality of your next workout.

Allergy Season

Don’t let pollen and mold keep you from training this spring.

At last-the warm days of spring! Time to put the bike trainer back in the attic, hit the open trails, and…sneeze.

For those with seasonal allergies, early-season training can be a challenge. Seasonal triggers like mold and pollen can create a host of symptoms: inflammation in the airways, runny nose, itchy throat, coughing and shortness of breath. Exercise adds to the stress placed on the airways, says Dr. Mark Millard, a pulmonologist at Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas and the Medical Director of the Martha Foster Lung Care Center.
