Unfortunately, many people today spend a lot of time performing resistance training workouts that are very long but poor in quality and do not have enough intensity in them. If you want to know how to burn fat fast then you need to learn about proper weight training, and go for quality not quantity when performing your resistance training workout.

Saturday, August 19, 2006 Ford has announced sweeping cuts of 21% (168,000 units) in its US and Canadian production, resulting in the partial closure of ten of its plants during the fourth quarter.

Australian Senator Bob Brown calls for ban on junk food ads
Tuesday, March 7, 2006 Australian Greens Senator Bob Brown today called for a ban on junk food advertisements during times that children are watching TV. In a press release, the Senator referred specifically to the previous night’s episode of Four Corners. “The extensive use of psychologists to analyse little children’s responsiveness to TV advertising, including how best to influence parents to buy goods by ‘nagging’ from children, is exploitation without honour,” Senator Brown said. The documentary, entitled How The Kids Took Over, investigated the increase in marketing to children, who “have a say” in AU$700 billion worth of spending each year. “The marketing assault is aimed not only at getting children to spend. Even companies who market adult products, such as cars, are enlisting children to help persuade their parents to buy the ‘right’ brand,” the program summary said. In the past the Government has rejected such calls. It recently…

They were convicted of stealing over US$8 million from St. Vincent Ferrer Catholic Church in Delray Beach, Florida. Retired Monsignor John A. Skehan and Reverend Francis B.

You’ve more than likely heard it growing up: “Look ahead! Plan for the future!

Belgian terrorism suspects remain in custody as case details emerge
Wednesday, September 13, 2006 A court in Flanders prolonged the custody of 12 suspects on Thursday. Meanwhile, more details emerge in the case against alleged neo-Nazi group inside the Belgian army. They are accused of terrorism, weapons traffic and racism. Most lawyers involved asked for their clients to be released, and will appeal the court’s decision. One lawyer said the police was being influenced politically to make the arrests now, before the elections of October 8, and that his client was more of a “immature teenager and weapons freak”.

A spokesperson for the justice department denied this formally, saying that “The weapons traffic of the suspects began to take too large proportions, so we couldn’t wait any longer.” She also said the army informed…
