    Walking While Working: How to Take Your Cubicle from 'Fattening Pen' to 'Fitness Center'

    Wow. This looks really freaky and cyborged out. But I really want to try it.

    I am imagining later attachments to this machine being a food dispenser, and some kind of sleeping compartment. Maybe even a program that harnesses your REM functions so you can even work when your sleeping!

    Quoted: Walking While Working... Join the Movement...Do you bemoan the lack of time you have to exercise? You know you should make time to do it. After all, about 30 minutes most days of the week shouldn't be that big of a deal. But it is.Now, imagine that you could go to work each day, accomplish what you need to for your employer and get that 30 minutes of exercise on all days. Sound impossible? According to a Mayo Clinic researcher, it's not. In fact, it may be the wave of the future.James Levine, M.D. and his colleagues in the NEAT (Non-exercise Activity Thermogenesis) lab at Mayo Clinic have pioneered an "Office of the Future" -- a fully functioning office that bears a marked resemblance to a gym. Complete with treadmills that serve as both desks and computer platforms and a two-lane walking track that serves as a meeting room, Dr. Levine and his entire staff have a unique, active work environment.The purpose of this lens is to focus on real world implementations of the work of the NEAT Lab Dr. James Levine, of the Mayo Clinic has graciously provided a lot of the content here. Dr. Joseph Stirt is both a doctor and a NEAT practitioner, having installed a treadmill computer desk in his home office. Lensmaster Tom Niccum has installed a treadmill computer desk (affectionately called "iPLod") in his company office. The three of us hope to create a community of NEAT practitioners to spread the idea of "walking while working", discuss the practicalities of setting up one's workspace, and explore new ways to implement NEAT ideas.

    Nader throws support to Edwards - David Paul Kuhn - Politico.com

    Hmm. I wonder if this was a big reason Edwards beat Clinton in Iowa.
    Edwards hasnt taken any corporate lobbying. He is the only democrat candidate who hasnt.
    When he said that in Iowa, Clinton had nothing to say, and Obama made some silly gesture about not letting corporations pay for food at some meeting somewhere.

    Quoted: Former presidential candidate calls Clinton "soft" on corporate crime and abuse.
