Quotes of the Day

Training loads must be increased periodically in order to avoid any stagnation in the athlete's progression. This work load could be increased by acting on one of the two factors that determine it (volume and intensity), or on both of them at the same time and always progressively, in small increments. The usual approach is to act on intensity. In order to work in a sufficient range of intensities, they must arrive at muscle failure between the repetition 6 and 12. If it's impossible to reach 6 consecutive repetitions, it's likely that they are working too intensely. If, on the other hand, they exceed 12 repetitions easily, they should add difficulty to the exercise. Once your training exercises are included, these should be maintained between 4 and 8 weeks before introducing changes. [2020] - Guillermo Seijas

Many analysts and investors believe some of these celebrity cryptocurrencies may vanish within ten years. Chances are that if anything should happen to a core cryptocurrency, a hard fork may come along that saves it. If you’ve already invested in a cryptocurrency when it forks, you get the same amount of new coins anyway. That’s why I’ve recommended starting the cryptocurrency portfolio by first diversifying among the top ten largest ones by market cap and then get into other, different categories.  [2019] - Kiana Danial

It’s much easier to view the long-term trends using a logarithmic chart. Log charts allow us to see percentage changes in price rather than absolute prices. For example, the vertical distance between $20 and $60 is the same as the distance between $200 and $600 and is the same as the distance between $2,000 and $6,000. [2019] - Glen Goodman

Life Insurance Tax Shelters (LITS) offer an option that will not only permit your money to grow Tax-Free, but if structured properly, will permit you to access the funds without tax ramifications. Each insurance company has their own name for their unique plan, but the plans basically operate like this. You participate in an insurance plan that also permits you to deposit money into it. The amount deposited can be very flexible and may change as you desire over the years, however, you will always be required to participate in the insurance coverage. Our recommendation is that you subscribe to the lowest "decreasing term" possible. You want your actual insurance premiums to be the lowest necessary to keep the plan active, because you want to take the extra money and deposit it within the plan as an investment. [2008] - Dwayne Daku

Vying for a second date can be even harder than asking for the first, especially if the first was a set-up. What to do? Lead with something you learned about the person on the first date. Did she mention that she likes to swing dance? Then ask her to a dance club the gives free lessons. Does he like to bike ride? Then suggest going cycling together on a scenic local bike trail. [2004] - Bonnie Jacobson
