Coffee, good or bad for your health?

There have been recent studies that suggest that coffee is actually good for your health- here is link that supports that claim

Two types of diterpenes are present in coffee: kahweol and cafestol, both of which have been associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease. Metal filters, on the other hand, do not remove the oily components of coffee. On cancer development, coffee consumption has been shown to have minimal or no impact, positive or negative. Yes, it can also cause insomnia, many kids who drank it end up being late for school. I don’t know much about addiction. I think it also causes osteoporosis, but it’s a rare case, as you add milk, which strengthens bones, counteracting the bone corroding properties of coffee.

Hotel Fitness Center: Are kids allowed? Are you charged?

http://embassysuites1.hilton.com/en_US/es/hotel/SFOSOES-Embassy-Suites-San-Francisco-Airport-South-San-Francisco-California/index.do?brand_id=ES&brand_directory=/en/es/&xch=663309840,4WERUSSRGJSX4CSGBJN2VCQ

Most hotels do not charge a fee for fitness center use. Kids must be supervised.

If in doubt call or email the hotel and ask.

Charlotte, NC! I need your help!?

I live in DC and I am planning our 2007 Family Reunion in Charlotte, NC for July 12th - 15th. Doing this long distance is a chore. I am looking for accomodations that have suites - meaning separate living area from the bedroom and full kitchen. If the hotel/suite offered 2 bedroom suites that would be perfect for families of 4.
The hotel/suite must have an event room for a 50 pp dinner or a hospitality room that we can use as a meeting place during our stay. I would like to have catering service for the dinner buffet provided by the hotel ( a breakfast buffet or continental breakfast we be ideal!)
Ususal amenites such as free parking, indoor or outdoor swimming pool, fitness room, free highspeed internet goes without saying.
Charlotte, NC is a wonderful place. Planned activities include Parmount Carowinds and Discovery Place. If you have any more sugguestions of places to see, let me know. Charlottians, I’m counting on you for your help! Please don’ t let me down!

Hey There. Just off the top of my head there are a few places that might meet your needs. The DoubleTree Guest Suites SouthPark is an all suite hotel that has meeting space as well as a full service restaurant. It is also located adjacent to SouthPark Mall. The Embassy Suites Woodlawn Places you about halfway between Center City and Carowinds, and is an all suite hotel with meeting space and a full service restaurant as well.
Your best bet though, would be to contact Visit Charlotte, the convention and vistors bureau. They have a special division that works with family reunions, and they will help you find accomodations, plan activities, and just about anything else you need help with. (and as far as I know its a free service!) You can reach them at VisitCharlotte.com or even better, call them at 1.800.722.1994 and talk to one of their event planners.
Here are just a few other things you might want to visit while you’re here:
Levine Museum of The New South
Mint Museum of Craft + Design
Carolina Raptor Center
Afro-American Cultural Center
Charlotte Museum of History
Lowe’s Motor Speedway
Carolinas Avation Museum
Catch a performance at the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center or the Award winning Childrens Theatre of Charlotte.
Just to name a few…

Whatever you end up doing, best of Luck planning your visit and hope you have a great time in Charlotte!

Does anyone own or use a Quantum 210C or 210H Elliptical, or a Life Fitness X5i or X9i Elliptical?

I have Googled all over and found only 1 review for the Quantum Ellipticals, and just wanted to know if anyone has used or reviewed the new Quantum elliptical themselves. I’ve found quite a few Life Fitness reviews, and again, I just wanted real user reviews if I can find them. I’m interested in buying soon, and I’m doing my research now.

I would test each product out before buying.

Beckham for England?

Its In the News today that Steve Mclaren is considering recalling Beckham to the England team!

It will be a big step back if McClaren picks Beckham. At his best he was vastly overrated and hes well past his best now. So i hope this is just press speculation drummed up by the Beckham publicity machine to keep his name in the public eye and he doesn’t actually get picked for England ever again.
