Clients Andreana Di Cos and Nic Pacaro exit the Cryotherapy Whole Body Chamber after a three minute therapy session at US Cryotherapy in Granite Bay.
ver been told to ice your ailing knee, sore joints or aching back? Perhaps youve taken an ice bath to reduce swelling and speed up the recovery process from an injury. Well those days may be gone soon thanks to a new cold-therapy treatment called Whole Body Cryotherapy. Todd Kramer, operations manager at US Cryotherapy, a family-owned Granite Baybased business, is proud to own the only Cryo Whole Body Chamber in America. People People are are looking for a better, looking for non-invasive treata better, ment, non-invasive Kramer treatment. said. CryotherTodd Kramer, apy is localoperations manager at US ized or Cryotherapy wholebody exposure to cold temperatures in order to decrease inflammation and pain, and promote healing. It is not a medical procedure, but a non-invasive option for people seeking faster muscle and joint recovery from injury and fatigue. From sports injuries to chronic pain, whole body cold therapy wont leave you soaking wet, and to many local residents, thats pretty cool. Although the subzero temperature chambers are very popular in Europe, America is just now catching onto this

modern technology that is believed to reduce inflammation and speed up the recovery process from strains, sprains, aches and pains. The process of cold therapy works on recovery because the body tries to maintain its temperature in the extreme cold, Kramer said. During the time in the Cryo Whole Body Chamber, blood rushes to your core and becomes oxygenenriched. When the person exits the chamber, the body immediately circulates that blood throughout the body. This helps decrease fatigue, muscle soreness, and some say, gives a surge of energy.
Client Andreana Di Cos enjoys use of the hydro massage bed after a therapy session at US Cryotherapy in Granite Bay.
Heres how it works: customers check in, receive a quick physical readiness screening to clear from heart or circulatory issues that would preclude them from entering the Cryo Whole Body chamber. After the customer is cleared, he or she gears up in company-provided mittens, slippers, face mask and headband used to protect sensitive areas of the body. Once all necessary precautions are cleared, the customer stands in a prechamber for 30 seconds. This chamber is about the size of a walk-in closet, only much colder. After 30 seconds, the customer opens a door and enters a slightly larger room. This is the whole body chamber where hyper-cold air is released all around the body, bringing the skin temperature down to a range of 45-55 degrees. This temperature is ture, is proud of this business. I knew I always wanted to open a franchise, but I wanted something different, something that truly helped people, Kramer said. When his father brought the business to the states after learning about it from a friend in Prague, Kramer knew that this would be a perfect fit. He may be right, with advertising mainly by word of mouth, this year they will celebrate their one-year anniversary. The US Cryotherapy center is set up much like something from The Jetsons. With bright blue lights, a view straight through to the Cryo Whole Body Chamber and several exercise machines, one might think it is a small gym. Although the concept of cryotherapy is similar to an ice bath, the benefits, many patrons say, are far better.

continued from page 5 Aerobics Instructor Andreana Di Cos is a regular, and credits the treatments she has received for healing a bicep tear and allowing her to get back to teaching within one week. My doctor had prescribed me ibuprofen and told me to ice my bicep, Di Cos said. A friend recommended that I try cryotherapy. When I came here, I could barely move my arm, but after the first treatment, I noticed a decrease in pain, and within a week, I was back at work, teaching several aerobics classes, daily. Di Cos said that she also experiences other benefits, like clear, healthy skin. My skin looks better, I feel more energized and after two months, I have no pain and I have full motion in my bicep. Kramer isnt at all surprised by her results. He hears the testimonials from others on a daily basis. The technology creates a circulatory response for your mind, body and spirit, Kramer said. And this type of modern procedure is gaining popularity. Because this is the only Whole Body Chamber in the U.S., Kramer has seen customers from as far as New York. He has also treated professional athletes, including the Sacramento Kings. So is this the next big thing? Kramer hopes so. Because of the demand and inquiries by everyone from franchise entrepreneurs to professional athletic teams, his business is booming, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. According to triathlete Nic Pacaro, cryotherapy has enabled him to recover faster, in a natural way. After suffering from a hip injury, he tried cryotherapy and found the results to be energizing. It takes recovery to a whole new level, Pacaro said. Aside from running in marathons, Pacaro races street bikes, has a full-time job, and a

Pacaro been coming to US Cryotherapy for eight months now and says that it has truly helped him become stronger. In fact, in his last duathlon, Pacaro shaved 10 minutes off his personal time, and won the entire race. He attributes the quick recovery process he receives in the Whole Body Chamber for his success. Ive learned to recover smarter not harder. Its the gym after the gym, Pacaro said. Pacaro doesnt miss ice baths, either. The chamber gives him the same if not better results, and keeps him dry and pain-free. Although its cold, its not that excruciating cold that an ice bath feels like, he said.
But the chamber can be a little intimidating for some.

Downhill skateboarding is one of the fastestgrowing sports in the world and No. 2 in the U.S. behind snowboarding, Henderson said. Its worldwide with participants and competitions in the U.S., Canada, Europe and elsewhere. This year, the International Gravity Sports Association skateboard competitions are in Australia; Goldendale, Wash.; the Czech Republic; Italy; France; Canada; Colombia; Argentina; and South Africa.

continued from page 9 acceptance, promote safety and help guys and gals become more skilled. People think of skateboards as toys, Dan Henderson said. But kids dont play with toys that reach speeds of automobiles. Skateboards are used to get around town. Motorists who share the roads dont realize that skateboarders are going 40, 50 or 60 miles per hour. Its not the typical skateboarding that you see at the mall. And downhill skateboarders dont use the tracks that you see around town or on television exhibitions and some competitions. They race downhill courses or on slalom runs. Dan Henderson has promoted several skateboarders who have turned pro. They include his son, Keith, who is the team captain, Malachi Greene, Calvin Staub, Josh Torres, Kyle Castenada and several other team riders from all over the U.S. We also evaluate several local aspiring riders, help them out and when theyre ready, they may make the team, Dan Henderson said.

Caliber Truck Co. The store helps the team in their racing efforts. Most of the members start on the boards at age 11 or 12 and begin racing at 14 or 15 after theyve developed their skills, Dan Henderson said. Its a valid sport and valid method of transportation, he said. Its also green and a lot less expensive than driving a car to school. Dan Henderson encourages the guys to obey traffic laws and watch out for hazardous situations. If I see them break a law, Ill pull them over and take their boards away from them. Keith Henderson said he was curious about skateboarding and started when he was 4 years old under the tutorship of his father. This summer hes headed for the IGSA World Cup series in Goldendale, Wash., and then to Calgary, Canada. What I like most about the sport is that its always good and positive, said Keith Henderson, a senior at Granite Bay High School. Ive made a lot of friends from all over the world Australia, Switzerland, Germany and Canada. Kelly Henderson loves the sport. Theres nothing more exciting than watching the boys racing downhill in full leathers and helmets. Its very cool, she said. Keith is doing standup and luge, she added. Hes maintaining top condition with running and weight lifting. The boys have to be in great shape to be able to stand on a board or luge and go 3 miles downhill at top speed, she said. Theyre taking the events to a whole new level. Its very competitive.
or the first time in five years, Roseville youth got to see first-hand what it is like to be a firefighter during the Roseville Fire Departments Summer Fire Camp for Kids. Kids, ages 11 through 14, are learning firefighting skills, first aid, rescue practices, water safety and physical fitness, and will also become certified in CPR. In a weeks time, well expose them to many of the things that we do in a regu-
lar day for our job, said Roseville Fire Department spokesman Jeff Carman. Its a lot of hands-on training. The fire camp began in 2001 but was discontinued in 2007 due to budget cuts, Carman said. This year, Roseville firefighters have volunteered their time to run the camp from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every day for a week in June. Campers were placed in teams to compete in what Carman said is a mini fire muster.
Teams competed in various firefighting drills such as rolling out hoses and putting on a self-contained breathing apparatus. The winning team will get a chance to dine with firefighters at a Roseville firehouse later this summer, Carman said. Its exciting to see our firefighters do this because it was so well received in the community, Carman said. Were hoping that as the kids get older, this will have spawned some interest and make some firefighting careers.

ome on honey, get dressed up, were going to the golf course for dinner. That statement would probably draw a blank stare from just about anybodys unsuspecting dinner date, but for members of Granite Bay Golf Club it takes on a different meaning. In what just might be one of the regions best kept culinary secrets, Executive Chef David Boswell is doing things you wouldnt normally expect from a clubhouse restaurant. But then again, the Mackenzie Grill at Granite Bay Golf Club is not your typical 19th hole. Quite the contrary, in fact. I am very much a farm-totable type of chef, Boswell says. This is what I do. My passion is cooking. Sustainability and supporting local farmers is extremely important to me. But supporting local farmers
and putting dollars back into the local economy is not all that Boswell does far from it. A classically trained chef coming from such iconic restaurants as Tra Vigne and Auberge Du Soleil in Napa Valley, Boswells culinary creations go far beyond the meat and potatoes you might expect at an ordinary clubhouse restaurant. We are a little different than a lot of clubs as far as not wanting to do club food, says food and beverage director Jeremy Wessling. Members here are looking for a fine dining experience, and we are very fortunate to have (Chef Boswell). Granite Bay Golf Club has three dining options: The Cobble Caf, Tillys Pub and Mackenzie Grill, the latter of which offers culinary treats that rival those found at almost any area fine dining restaurant. Yet, Boswell has somehow managed to stay under the radar and he likes it that way.

Since the members pay a premium to be here, this is their club, he said. I hold that responsibility closely. They deserve the best and I want them to be proud of their club. On a recent visit, I was fortunate enough to experience a menu tasting and ample one at that of some of the finest items Boswell offers from his kitchen. Since I was dining alone, Boswell offered to take me on a journey through the menu, alternating between hot and cold appetizers and entrees. I started with the Tombo Tuna Tataki, an original dish Boswell created for a Stags Leap wine dinner recently held at the clubhouse. The gingerguava marinated tuna was lightly seared and served with fennel and green apple slaw, confit kumquats, micro cilantro and spicy sambal oil. The dish begged to be paired with a light, herbaceous sauvignon blanc or some other kind of crisp summer white wine.
The colossal tiger prawn salad comes with poached baby vegetables, marinated hearts of palm, grape tomatoes and fava beans.
Second, Boswell brought out his house-made pozole, a Mexican soup that is traditionally made with the jus left behind by slow roasted pork, tomatoes and hominy, a Mexican corn product. Im a sucker for tradition, he said. But I like to use modern twists and modern plating. I like to showcase that we do pozole in a place like this. Fine Mexican cuisine is not all Boswell has up his sleeve. Colossal tiger prawn salad with poached baby vegetables, marinated hearts of palm, grape tomatoes and fava beans; braised short ribs with creamy polenta, grape toma-
toes and red wine jus; and a shaved asparagus salad with grape tomato, cucumber and fresh-pulled mozzarella that is still warm from the kitchen. All of these delicious items were presented to me, and all of which left me looking forward to what was coming next. Halfway through the meal, I realized I was probably overeating, but then again I didnt care. I wanted more and more I received. Boswell brought out his signature halibut dish fresh local halibut caught off the coast of San Fransico, pan seared served with cauliflower puree, crispy fingerling potato rings, baby carrots, sunchokes and foraged mushrooms. Thats right, foraged mushrooms. One of the coolest things is Ill go out on the course and forage, Boswell said. There are some incredible ingredients here. Ive discovered seven fig trees on the property.

continued from page 13 Boswell began foraging for wild ingredients when he was training as a chef in Alaska and has developed quite the knack for it. Wild black berries, asparagus, ramps, figs and sea beans are just some of the items he says he finds out on the course and adds to items on his menu.
The mushrooms? Boswell uses a professional wild forager for those. But when Boswell is not out along the course looking for wild goodies, he gets a majority of his fresh ingredients from the large garden situated next to the fourth hole. To eat at Mackenzie Grill, one must either be a member of Granite Bay Golf Club or be a guest of a member.
Its a very unique environment. Guests are not afraid to tell you what they want and thats what I love. Thats what makes our menu a little more unique.

he practice round paid off; the preparation, too. The noting of the pin placements, how to approach the greens, it all worked in Granite Bays favor last month. The Grizzlies, their last of several goals met just by qualifying for the CIF/CGA High School State Championships, bettered even themselves by winning the whole thing.

pulled it out. Torrey Pines was here. Santa Margarita, all these big L.A. programs. We were able to grind it out and shoot low enough. Thats the bottom line. The Grizzlies flew south the day before to San Gabriel for a practice round. The pins were moved to what Stafford described as really, really tough pin placements for the tournament. Some of these kids, I guess, werent used to them, Stafford said. Foothill had three scores in the high 70s, as did Stevenson. Two rounds of 76, a 78 and an 80 didnt get it done for Torrey Pines, and a 68 and 69 for Santa Margarita couldnt cover rounds
of 79, 83 and 86. Senior Alex Gibbs said the Grizzlies mapped all the pin locations the day before and knew where to put their approach shots. Freshman Jeffrey Inouye-Wong led Granite Bay with a 1-over 72. Juniors Brandon Baumgarten and Chuck Pedone shot 73 and 74, Gibbs a 76 and junior Bryan Wise a 79. We were sort of stressing at the end, watching everybody come in, Inouye-Wong said. Its amazing, once in a lifetime really, and I get to do it as a freshman. Im just enjoying it. The Grizzlies had some stressful moments on the course, too, but came
through. Inouye-Wong landed in sand traps on his first two holes but hit both bunker shots to within tap-in distance. Wise had a ball get stuck in a tree. Baumgarten hit a ball into the water on a par 3 and then almost chipped in from over the water. People would get down a little bit and come with a birdie, Stafford said. Everybody just kept grinding. While not playing his best round, Gibbs, Granite Bays low scorer this season, managed to make needed par putts, and Granite Bay became the first NorCal team to win a state title since Concord-De La Salle in 2006 and the first public
school to win since Del Campo in 1977. Weve worked so hard all year, Gibbs said. We came in as the underdog team but played collec-
tively well enough to beat all the top teams. This is the best high school tournament in California, so it feels really amazing. We deserve it.

aengzun Zeux knows his strawberries. The Laos-born Granite Bay resident is the owner of Saengs strawberry stand located at the corner of Douglas Boulevard and Barton Road in Granite Bay. Zeux has been selling strawberries at the Barton Road location for the past 15 years. He and his family moved to Granite Bay from Sacramento a few years ago. I really like it here, Zeux said. The people who come to my stand are so nice. I have lots of repeat customers and
when they come in they always tell me how much they like the berries and that makes me feel so good. Thats why Im here. I want to grow the best berries for all my customers. For Zeux, its a family affair. His wife, four children and various relatives all work in a field located down the street from the stand on about 5 acres at Otow Orchards in Granite Bay. They begin work in the field before the sun comes up. Once their buckets are full of berries, Zeux and his crew return to the strawberry stand to sell the bounty of their hard labor. Zeux needs all the help he can get as running the seasonal

Lincoln, Roseville, Rocklin, Auburn and Loomis all have multiple strawberry stands similar to Saengs. When you buy strawberries or any other type of crop from a PlacerGROWN farmer you not only will enjoy the freshest products, but youll develop an appreciation for the farmer who grows the food and understand their passion for their work. Making sure every product they sell is top quality is their No. 1 priority. For a listing of all PlacerGROWN strawberry farmers and other locally-grown crops, visit www.placergrown.org.

German foreign exchange student Thomas von Knebel, 18, top center, with his Granite Bay host family: parents Bekki and Ron Riggan, front, and siblings Connor and Jenna Riggan.
The American family of Thomas von Knebel likes to joke about his three favorite foods: bacon, popcorn and cheeseburgers. Sometimes, Bekki Riggan would do the mom thing and
encourage him to eat more salads, which occasionally worked. She wanted him to be healthy during his semesterlong stay at her Granite Bay home. Shes filtering this process through his moms eyes, said Bekkis husband, Ron Riggan.
26
Von Knebels mom lives thousands of miles away in Germany. Her son came to the United States in January to spend a semester studying abroad. Now, as the school year has ended, many foreign exchange students depart, saying goodbye to their adopted families. Ron Riggan is a pilot with United Airlines based out of San Francisco who makes frequent trips to Europe. With a little maneuvering, he managed to fly the plane carrying von Knebel back home. Along for the ride were his wife, daughter and son. And, in true exchange fashion, they joined von Knebel for a visit with his family. The German teenager came to Granite Bay through the EF Foundation for Foreign Study.
International Exchange Coordinator Cheryl Young said the program lasts for a semester or full-year. Students, 15 to 18, are screened for motivation, character, grades and proficiency in English. Students are required to maintain at least a C average or better in all classes. Young said the program helps these students develop as individuals. Its important for students to perfect their English (and) to learn about another culture, she said. They become more mature, selfassured and independent and make their own decisions. Young said von Knebel and the Riggans turned out to be the perfect fit for each other. I think it was a match made in heaven, she

said. Von Knebel comes from Gottingen, a university town of about 121,000 people. The city is small and compact and von Knebel said he has no need for a drivers license he takes the train, bikes and walks everywhere. But he wanted a new adventure. I just wanted to go to America and have an
American experience, and it worked out for me, von Knebel said. Meanwhile, Connor Riggan, who graduated from Granite Bay High School in June, asked his parents about hosting an exchange student, and they agreed. His older sister, Jenna, has been out of the house for four years now, and he felt like an only child. Plus, he has German ancestry. We wanted Connor to understand his background, Bekki Riggan said. This was a cool way to do it. In January, the Riggans welcomed von Knebel to California. He had a long flight, so the first thing we did on the way home was stop at In-N-Out Burger, Bekki Riggan said. At first, von Knebel asked his new brother to explain a lot of English
words, but he caught on quick. Hes taken several years of English back in Germany and is familiar with American slang. Over the months, the family has done some traveling, but mainly Knebel just wanted a normal life. He did do laser tag for the first time. And it was awesome, he said. He said the experience has made him more open-minded and interested in exploring other countries and cultures. Connor Riggan said the experience has affected his family, too. It changed the dynamics a lot, he said. They started having dinner together more often and planning big family outings. They were happy to welcome von Knebel into the fold. I feel like a member of the family now, he said.

This custom home at 9825 Carlton Court in Granite Bay features six bedrooms, six baths and is 6,000 square feet.
rom formal and fabulous, to casually comfortable, this Granite Bay property, located in the gated Wedgewood subdivision, just landed on the market and is priced to sell. The front of the home, both inside and out, is all about making a statement from a rose-lined walk to the dining and living rooms that mirror one another, across a two-story
entrance that speaks of something grand. The formality of the rooms are created, in part, by understated yet high-end features like wainscoting, fluted pilasters and granite-faced fireplaces in soft grays and creams. What I love about the home is that its a classic, very homey home, said Dana Svanum of Bishop Real Estate Group. You could pick this home up and put it down in the Fab 40s and it would be perfect.

Ceiling treatments make the home a standout, as well. Every room has a different
treatment, Svanum said. With tray ceilings, double crowns, boxed and unusually shaped cut outs, the home is a true custom masterpiece. Classic style, in this case, wears a fresh new look. Pale wood floors, cool taupe and raisin granite, and new stainless appliances give a sleek modern look to the classic beauty. The chefs kitchen includes top-of-the-line everything: inisland six-burner Dacor cook
top, Dacor double ovens, builtin microwave and dishwasher, fire clay dual sinks and veggie sink with Rohl faucets, stunning pendant lighting, built-in stainless refrigerator, wine fridge and desk area. It might be the cabinetry that stars in this bright, white kitchen, however. All the cabinets have pull outs, which are spring closed. They also include built-in spice racks, Svanum said.

PROPERTY: Private backyard has natural pool, raised hot tub and numerous waterfalls below
continued from page 28 The home offers space for everyone in the family, including two downstairs and two upstairs bedrooms with en-suite baths. I call this the garden room, Svanum said of a guest bedroom that offers French-door access to the backyard verandah, and has the feel of a Hawaiian plantation getaway. A covered verandah runs the length of the home in the rear, and offers spectacular views of the natural pool, raised hot tub, and numerous waterfalls below. The yard is most private, and includes multiple seating areas, and an array of solar panels, ideally suited to bring down the energy bill all year long. Bedrooms include extensive bright-white wood built-ins, but its the master thats most impressive. The master has a closet within a closet, Svanum said of the huge expanse of closet space that
rivals the size of most bedrooms. The master bath includes a sunken, jetted tub, which is surrounded by crowns of plum, red and green trees located just outside the large corner windows, while the master itself is large and includes its own private balcony from which to enjoy the tropical paradise below. The room also includes a separate seating area with fireplace, wet bar and mini fridge so many great amenities, the homeowners might never leave their master retreat. While the master might be mom and dads favorite room in the house, the lower-level game room will be a close second. With a fireplace, space for numerous game tables or full theater seating, and French-door access to its own private balcony and secret garden, the room is sure to be a big hit with family members of all ages.
The backyard is most private, and includes multiple seating areas, and an array of solar panels, ideally suited to bring down the energy bill all year long.

Amanda Batiste, 10, left, and Sarah Ranlett, 6, test the strength of cylindrical columns versus square ones in a lesson designed to demonstrate why bones are round during the Mad Science summer camp held at Granite Bay High School in late June.
manda Batiste carefully placed another magazine on top of a stack resting on four columns made of index cards, as her fellow campers held their breath. They released a round of heavy sighs when the fragile structure stayed intact. But the next magazine brought the experiment crashing down. So the four girls tried the process all over again. They were testing whether the circular or the square tubes
were stronger to determine why human bones are cylindrical shaped. The activity was one of many held during the weeklong Mad Science Grossology camp at Granite Bay High School in late June. Four other camps will be held in Roseville in July. Mad Science is a program that aims to spark the imagination and curiosity of children by providing them with fun, interactive educational programs. Kids learn about science and how it affects their world and their own bodies.

I like all the fun stuff, Amanda, 10, said. They have tons of different experiments. Amanda attends Ridgeview Elementary School in Granite Bay. She and her sister, Maryann Batiste, 11, participated in the Mad Science camp together. Both liked all the miniexplosions, slimy, foamy and sticky aspects of the Grossology program. I like the hands-on experiments because most science is you just watching your teacher, Maryann said. Science is not as fun in school. The girls soon went over to watch as another group continued to build their stack of magazines on their paper columns. At 37 magazines, the circular tubes crumbled. But the square tubes were only strong enough to balance 16 magazines. So do you guys get why your bones might be made out of circles? asked instructor Ryan Drummond. Next, the campers learned about the digestive track, from the mouth to the esophagus, stomach, large and small intestines and ending at the rectum. The children unraveled plastic tubing the actual length of a human bodys digestive track. They worked a plastic ball through the tubing from the mouth to where it would pop out at the other end until the ball got stuck. Theres a serious intestinal blockage here, Drummond said, laughing.

Just a couple miles from Folsom Lake, Douglas Ridge RV and Boat Storage is ideal for those on their way to the lake. Although the facility opened in May, many slots have already been rented, in part because the Tanner family responded to community needs. Just a look inside

Dylan Robison and Adrianna Eaton, of Roseville, ride the midway rides at the Placer County Fair in Roseville on June 21.
ot even an hour after the annual Placer County Fair opened and Roseville resident Tai Frenchs three little kids were winning goldfish. All it took was the toss of a ping-pong ball into one of the hundreds of small containers floating on water in a carnival game. Weve gone (to the fair) the last couple of summers, French said. The kids look forward to it. We play games, ride the rides and get a treat. Its a tradition. This years four-day event, held June 21 through 24, featured a performance by the band Smash Mouth, Mixed
Martial Arts fights, a food court, NASCAR races, exhibits on the women of Placer County, local bands playing on multiple stages, plenty of rides and more. But for organizer John Javidan, the main attraction was the community feel. Lexie Anderson, 18, of Auburn felt that sense of community in the agricultural section of the fair, where she was showing her sheep. Anderson hoped her sheep would win some awards and that she would sell them by fairs end. In the meantime, she was enjoying spending time with fellow young farmers. (This) is my favorite time of the year, she said.

riting has many benefits Becoming an effective writer increases language ability, hones organizational skills and develops effective communicating skills. If you think about it, learning to write is not very different than learning Sheri to water ski, Hitchings for instance. You and Your Kids Both involve practice and patience. In fact, the more your child writes the better writer he becomes. So tips to write effectively begin with motivation.

Bonding time
Work together to write biographies of family members. Find old family photos and put captions under the photos for an album. Have your child call an aunt, cousin or grandparent to discuss their lives and write their stories.

hen we talk about the benefits of exercise, looking better gets the most attention. Burning off unwanted pounds is a great thing, but lets not overlook a more immediate benefit of exercise. Exercise transforms how you feel with a quickness. Its true. While weight loss takes time and extended effort, all it takes is one workout to begin reaping the reward of becoming more mentally alert as well as a more energetic and capable body. Here are the top three ways that your body will feel better with exercise:
bounce through your day with a spring in your step? Or do you hit snooze half a dozen times before getting up and dragging through your day? While you may not instantly feel like the Energizer Bunny, your energy levels will dramatically increase once you begin a consistent, challenging exercise routine. (Exercise) literally creates energy in your body. Your body rises up to meet the challenge for more energy by becoming stronger, explains Samantha Heller, MS, RD. Research consistently concludes that regular exercise increases energy levels and reduces fatigue.
When your life becomes sedentary (this means you are inactive for most of the day), then youll quickly find your body developing aches and pains. Youll feel it when you stand up a throb in your back, creaking in your knees and stiffness in your legs. This is pain due to underuse. Your body was meant to move! Movement improves flexibility and range of motion, and releases natural pain-reducing endorphins, which means that, with a regular exercise program, youll be moving smoother and with less pain than ever before.
lar part of your life, feelings of happiness and confidence also become a part of you. From now on try to change the way you think about exercise, forget the idea that exercise is nothing more than a means to achieving a slimmer body. Instead, look at exercise as a complete life enhancer and reap all the benefits that exercise has to offer.
One more tip:
Theres a good chance that youll find yourself in a coffee shop looking for refreshment at one time or another this summer. It may even be a daily occurrence. Keep in mind that what you order will directly impact how you look and feel.
Order something that will cool you off, not weigh you down. Only drink beverages that contain little to no sugar. Blended drinks are packed with sugar. Imagine that blended coffee drinks are a dessert-in-acup because it will end up stored on your body as quickly as a slice of cheesecake. Unsweetened or lightly sweetened iced tea or iced coffee is an excellent choice. Enjoy July! Its a great month for early morning workouts!

People without any dance background can pick up the basics of the style after a few weeks. Its so interesting that with all the interest in ballroom dancing, no ones heard of this, he said.

Round dancing is categorized by rhythm and by difficulty, also called phase. There are six phases, and 11 rhythms: waltz, two-step, foxtrot, jive, cha-cha, rumba, bolero, mambo, west coast swing, slow two-step and tango. The cues are standardized in English and are the same anywhere in the world. Round dancing is already quite popular in Europe and Japan, said instructor Marie Hathaway. She also came to this style through square dancing, when a caller needed her assistance. He gave me a microphone and I never gave it back, Hathaway said. That was 20 years ago. She soon met Sil, one of her students who became teachers pet. The Mavericks Square Dance Club of Roseville will host beginning round dance lessons starting in

History
The Ohlone Indians, believed to be the first inhabitants, arrived some 10,000 years ago. Living along the Los Gatos Creek, now called Vasona Park, it crosses the Santa Cruz Mountains to the Pacific coast. Captain Juan Bautista de Anza was the first outsider to camp along Los Gatos Creek in 1776 during his expedition to establish a presidio at San Francisco Bay. With the advice of the Ohlone Indians and help of Father Fermin Francisco de Lasuen, Los Gatos became a prominent trade and transportation center; many mountain lions were also attracted to the area, thus providing Los Gatos with a suitable name. Los Gatos, with a population of 30,000 and covering approximately 14 square miles, will forever be connected to the Ohlone, El Rancho Rinconada de Los Gatos, Forbes Mill and Mountain Charley. Perusing this town is a simply unique and enjoyable experience.
