““It looks more and more like the positive stress of exercise prepares cells and structures and pathways within the brain so that they’re more equipped to handle stress in other forms,” says Michael Hopkins, a graduate student affiliated with the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory Laboratory at Dartmouth, who has been studying how exercise differently affects thinking and emotion. “It’s pretty amazing, really, that you can get this translation from the realm of purely physical stresses to the realm of psychological stressors.””

Sarah Palin on Newsweek Cover - Facebook

“The choice of photo for the cover of this week’s Newsweek is unfortunate. When it comes to Sarah Palin, this “news” magazine has relished focusing on the irrelevant rather than the relevant. The Runner’s World magazine one-page profile for which this photo was taken was all about health and fitness - a subject to which I am devoted and which is critically important to this nation. The out-of-context Newsweek approach is sexist and oh-so-expected by now. If anyone can learn anything from it: it shows why you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, gender, or color of skin. The media will do anything to draw attention - even if out of context.” - Sarah Palin

I can’t disagree with her.

I can’t disagree with her either. As much as it pains me to admit, she’s right.

She is right and SUPER hot. FIVE kids. FIVE.

Automatic “Newsweek is so bad these days I don’t even flip through the issues in the stands anymore” post.

hmmm…. is all this bashing by the libs actually making people like her a little?

qua??

I wonder what our new Tumblr friends at newsweek have to say about this.

She wishes the media would just leave her alone! She’s a very private and media-sensitive person outside of Oprah, NBC News, FOX News, and the local media satellite press junket for her book launch! I can’t believe we live in a world where Newsweek would ignore her important message of fearmongering and instead decide to focus on such distasteful things! SHAME!

it’d be sexist if this were the photo they chose for a serious political personality. but Newsweek is clearly taking a stance here (“She’s bad news…”). the photo’s not “out of context” when the article is saying, “you’re ridiculous” and the photo also says, “you’re ridiculous.”

“They keep calling him a fascist. These people don’t even know what a fascist is! When you say, “We’re gonna vote that fascist out of office,” you really sound dumb. When was the last time a fascist got voted out of office? They usually stick around.”

Chipotle Mexican Grill Plans Major Solar Power Initiative:

hippieflavor:

“Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) announced today it is partnering with Houston-based Standard Renewable Energy (SRE) to install solar panels on approximately 75 Chipotle restaurants over the next year. In all, Chipotle has committed to panels that will produce 500 kilowatt hours of electricity, making Chipotle the largest direct producer of solar energy in the restaurant industry.”
