In other news, Doug's work is providing him with a pedometer, so he can measure his &lt;a href="http://walking.about.com/od/measure/f/10000steps.htm"&gt;10,000 steps&lt;/a&gt;. And if you (like one of our co-hosts) have lost your Poke-Walker, you can pick up a replacement and measure your own 10,000 steps in Poke-style for 8.95 from &lt;a href="http://store.nintendo.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?productId=166708&amp;amp;currency=USD&amp;amp;catalogId=10001&amp;amp;tranId=0&amp;amp;lastAction=setCurr&amp;amp;storeId=10001&amp;amp;languageId=-1&amp;amp;categoryId=62209&amp;amp;ddkey=http:SetCurrencyPreference"&gt;Nintendo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
Mae is going Gluten-Free. And her awesome husband is sharing the pain.&lt;br /&gt;
