Are you interested in having a winery?

Ever?

Family owned and operated?

Do you agree that no ~~child~~ wine buyer should not be left behind?

Here is an idea.

Even if you do not have winery,

nothing stops you from selling wine.

Right?

Wine branded as

"My graduate school"

"My universities"

"Next class"

(kinda promising ah? -"I need my NEXT CLASS")

"Second degree"

"Graduate degree"

"Learning from the best"
"VinoPedia"
"WinePedia"
(Pedia does not sound appropriate, we are talking about educating kids after all. A "paedia", a common English word of Greek origin meaning "knowledge" seems to be appropriate.)

     Boxed wine (cheap and UP) with short bio of a physicist(chemist, biologist, etc(according to department's names of local university ;-) ) and his major achievements, including major formulas etc.) Also box package will provide more room for information, after all it's educational....One side of the box is a picture of a scientist (most known picture) with major formulas etc.

     Might come in pocket size bottle with same characteristics.

     Each 12 or 12 dozen boxes comes with a long shelf(mailed in), so these boxes are not thrown out, but rather used to decorate/enlighte(is it a word?) the study room. Optional hook might be included with each purchase.

     Choice of red/white/pink depending on the impact of a person to the science, his character, or personality. Also searching his personal preferences would be a hint.

      A line of beer with similar name/properties. After that nothing stops you from producing line of potato chips with Einstein name. Each box of 12 bags comes with study guide.....
      Here word PAEDIA comes again as brand name for salty nuts...

A long island iced tea is made by putting one part of each
vodka,
rum,
gin,
tequila,
and triple sec over ice.
One and a half parts of sweet and sour mix is added.
The mix is shaken, and then a splash of coke is added.

Mallet finger

2012-11-26T19:36:00.001-08:00

Treatment options include surgery or putting the finger in a Mallet splint for 6 to 8 weeks or extension block k-wire for 4 weeks. The splint allows the tendon to return to normal length, if the finger is bent during these weeks the healing process must start all over again. Surgery is used to reattach the tendon and is usually performed within a week of the injury.

Less sophisticated splint shown here, but it will work until you get more suitable one from doctor's office.

consider all options ;-0

Tennis Elbow Rehabilitation

2012-09-02T11:22:00.003-07:00

Who knew that tennis elbow called something like a Lateral Epicondylitis? I didn't. Also shooter's elbow, and archer's elbow or simply lateral elbow pain. Too many words for one pain...

Started to do a few new exercises.

4.Wrist flexion: Holding a glass(condensed milk can) or escrima stick (looks cooler ;-)) with your palm up, slowly bend your wrist up. Return to the starting position. As time goes replace the weight with something heavier - hammer or shovel.

5.Wrist extension:Holding a weight with your palm down, slowly bend your wrist up and return to the starting position.
6.Wrist radial deviation:Hold you wrist in the sideways position(thumbs up). Holding a hammer bend your wrist up with your thumbs reaching toward the ceiling. Lower to starting position. Do not move forearm.

7. Wrist extension: Stand up and hold a bo staff or broom handle in both hands. With your arms at shoulder level, elbows strait and palms down roll the bo backwards in your hands. Repeat ~ 1min x 3 times

8.Propanation and supination: Hold an escrima(hammer, shovel) in your hand, with your elbow bent 90 degrees. Rotate your hand with palm upward and then palm down.

Do all of them 3 sets x 10 times, if not stated otherwise.

Tennis Elbow

2012-08-24T21:52:00.003-07:00

Third year of kenjitsu finally paid off with Tennis Elbow. Usually I'm getting smashed knuckles. It is fortunate that my head still in place and it can be used to control stretching exercises, which I can start to do right away.

1.

Bend the wrist forward and backward as far as you can.

10 times x 3 sets.

2.

Keep the elbow at your side and keep your elbow bent 90 degrees throughout the whole exercise.
Bring the palm facing up.
Hold 5 seconds.
Turn palm down.
Hold 5 seconds.
10 times x 3 sets.

3.

Keep the elbow at your side (palm to hip)
Slowly bring your palm up to your shoulder and bend your elbow as far as you can.
Straighten your elbow out as far as you can.
10 times x 3 sets.

There is a few exercises when you are almost pain free. I hope to cover them later.

By the way - Elbow strap really helps to keep pain out while you are doing these exercises. My "hand model" does not have any problems with her elbow and does not wear it.

Another solution is to join NRA. I'm not sure if they have family discounts...

Life South t-shirt

I donated blood today. Finally Life South decided to change their t-shirts design, which intended to celebrate the donation. I stopped taking the t-shirts from Life South a long time ago. I accepted this one with great pleasure.

Hook kick.

2012-08-15T08:01:00.001-07:00

I think I finally understood how to do a hook kick. It does not solve the problem ;-).
I started to think from Outside Crescent, which I can perform. Well, almost can.
It is almost impossible to tell, but the vital difference is what you're actually striking with.
A Hook Kick strikes with the heel(at least it must be more powerful) or sole(least powerful, but still...) of the foot. An Outside Crescent strikes with the edge portion(knife edge?) of the foot.
The Crescent uses more of the hip for power while the
Hook uses more of the butt and hamstrings for power since the angle is different.
And here comes the problem with my hamstrings........

Hook kick

2012-08-07T13:37:00.002-07:00

Thinking about how to improve my hook kick. Well, honestly speaking improvement is very strong word in my case. Nothing really suitable online. All videos are coming with explanation something like "my way of doing..." Ya, right.
