Behold, the 2007 Citroen Nemo, a concept (“concetto“) car designed to look just like the adorable, lil’ clown fish Nemo from Pixar Animation Studio’s 2003 hit film Finding Nemo.
Might be old news to some; I just read about this cute, little car in today’s newspaper and felt like sharing it with all of you.
Here’s the back of the car:
Cute, isn’t it? Just like this guy:
A couple of months ago I posted an entry about women and their perfectly understandable but completely unfounded fears about weightlifting.
(You can check out the earlier post here.)
Their number one concern: getting “big” the way guys do.
Bottom line for those of you who haven’t read the previous post: not gonna happen.
Well, now there’s a brand new book out called The New Rules Of Lifting For Women: Lift Like A Man, Look Like A Goddess that expands upon the topic in significantly more detail (for those women still unconvinced).
The book, by Lou Schuler, Cassandra Forsythe, and Alwyn Cosgrove, contains a more in-depth refutation of the commonly held yet wildly inaccurate belief that women shouldn’t lift weights lest they transform overnight into some sort of muscle-bound man-woman.
The book, which seems to be getting a lot of favorable reviews thus far, also delves into proper diet and nutrition and includes detailed descriptions and color pictures of recommended exercises and workout routines.
Here’s a link to the Amazon page where you can purchase the book.
Finally got around to seeing Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem, the sequel to 2004’s Alien Vs. Predator.
It’s about as bad as the first one, possibly worse. Either way, I’d avoid the movie altogether.
It’s been awhile since I last wrote about workout-related topics so I figured I’d take some time to discuss one of the most popular and beneficial back exercises – the Lat pull down.
(Beneficial if done correctly, that is.)
The Lat pull down primarily targets the Latissimus dorsi shown here:
Here’s a video of somebody completing Super Mario Bros. 3 in a little over 11 minutes.
Pretty crazy, right?
Like magic, it’s not quite as impressive once you know how the trick is accomplished, but it’s still pretty entertaining to watch.
