THE RAIN HAS STOPPED FOR THE MOST PART BUT THE WIND STIL IS BLOWING


The rain has pretty much stopped for the most part after two days of downpours and more than four inches of rain here in Colonial Heights. The wind is still blowing pretty hard which should help in the drying out progress. We might get a little more rain later today but it is suppose to be very light. With all the rain we have had over the last few days several high school football games have already been moved to Monday night, so far the Colonial Heights game is still on but I got a feeling that it to will be postponed till Monday as well. Down at the beach both First Flight and Manteo are scheduled to start playoff action tonight weather permitting, both teams are at home with First Flight playing Cummings and Manteo facing Mattamuskeet. The Nascar Sprint Cup Series will visit Phoenix this weekend with Jimmie Johnson trying to wrap up another championship. MICKEY

Do Cardio 30 Minutes a Day
Any workout that gets your heart rate up will burn calories. But you'll use more calories if you pick a cardio routine that engages multiple muscles simultaneously, says Wendy Larkin, personal-training manager at Crunch's Polk Street gym, in San Francisco.

Three to consider: spinning, cardio kickboxing, and boot-camp workouts. Half an hour of each torches 200 to 300 calories while toning up your arms, legs, and core so everything appears sleeker and tighter.
Add on some of the moves celeb trainers recommend to really see results. You'll burn even more calories per session if your workout incorporates interval training: alternating short bursts of intense cardio with slower activity. Experts aren't sure why it works, but trainers swear by it.


THINGS PEOPLE DON'T LIKE ABOUT COWORKERS
The Psst-er: Gossipers were the number one pet peeve in the survey. While some people like to hear juicy tidbits about the boss or their colleagues, too much gossip can undermine the spirit of the workplace. Plus you're always wondering when the Psst-er will make you the topic du jour.

I don't think I would either. One in Va Beach was knocked down in the middle.
