Article:
Don't listen to the "Corn Refiners Association" hype
New study finds missing link between high fructose corn syrup and insulin resistance.
. . ."Fructose is much more readily metabolized to fat in the liver than glucose is and in the process can lead to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease," he continued. NAFLD in turn leads to hepatic insulin resistance and type II diabetes. . .

ZONING UPDATE
The Zoning Commission will be meeting tomorrow at 7:30pm at the same place as last time. We have asked for an extension to weigh our options. Hopefully the only thing that will be happening at the meeting is the granting of an extension.
Attendance is not mandatory.
That being said. Please feel free to attend if you already planned on going and/or you have nothing else going on (we could use some ears in the house just in case).

The peeps at CF Balboa are just like everywhere in the CF world - cool to hang with. Balboa is in one of the most beautiful spots in the world. Great shirts too: www.crossfitbalboa.com.
Also visit Max Mormont's site for 3 daily wods: CF, Oly or CF Games. www.maxfitusa.com.
Happy Birthday, Margaret, Andrew & Travis!! Wow, three in one day.
And congrats to my friend and founding member, Matt Brennan and his wife, Susan on the birth of their twins on Saturday:
"Eleanor Frances and Finn Talbott into the world at 11:59 am and 12:00 pm Saturday (ed: a bit earlier than expected). Eleanor came in at a solid 5 lbs 5 oz and Finn at a robust 4 lbs 5 oz."

Happy Birthday Margaret, Andrew & Travis! Congratulations Matt and Susan. On the one hand, you get 2 for 1. On the other hand, two kids hitting the 529 at the same time might be a little rough. Not a bad buy point, though!
See everyone today at 4pm. Doing a few rehab exercises for my back, then some muscle up work, and I'll hit that 400m lunges with the weighted vest on! I did this before the superbowl, and "oh what a feeling".

Nick........Holly saw how weak your squats were and fainted...breaking her wrist in the process.....lol Thanks for hanging the Heavy Bags. They work great there!!!
Posted by: JimmyG at March 10, 2009 9:00 AM
Dave & Donna, talk to us in 2 days and tell us how sitting down feels. 400m lunges with vest and dumbells? Awesome work, but I'm thinking you may regret your ambition.

Matt,
Great picture! You look happy but a little shell-shocked! : )
Double Congratulations!

Holly broke her wrist on Saturday catching a full clean and tumbling backward to the floor! Surgery on Saturday night to insert a plate to stabilize (vs a long-term cast) and recovery on Sunday. Healing now. Bummed she's missing wods.

Thanks for all the good wishes, everyone!
Mike, yes a little shell-shocked but still have the new baby buzz.
Rob, its too easy to escape now, the trick will be when we all get home from the hospital...
