ATTENTION. All I see here lately are large butts and guts. I thought y'all were serious about getting in shape. The Pentagon called me this morning looking for some folks for a special mission. It seems that Techie fella is going to do some traveling this fall on a covert mission. Destination number one is Australia. This will be followed by the UK, Germany, and Spain. He needs some sharp looking troops to guide him to the sites where you guys frequent. He is a hotel guy and doesn't like to impose on people. He does like taking folks to dinner on him. This low life will most probably will most likely be followed by the CIA, MI5, and and interpol. NOW LETS TAKE YOUR AMORPOUS SELVES INTO BOOT CAMP!!!

Green Chicken Masala
Chicken tikka masala is a curry made with roasted chicken and a red or orange sauce. This recipe differs from the traditional tikka masala in its use of a paste made with fresh cilantro and mint for a green chicken masala. Similarly to the traditional tikka masala though, the combination of Indian spices give a nice and spicy taste to this dish, something not too much unlike other curries.
It should not be confused with chicken marsala, which is an Italian dish made with mushrooms and marsala wine. A great Italian chicken marsala recipe can be found in the cookbook.
This recipe calls for quite a few ingredients, but is really quick and simple to prepare. It should take no more than 30 minutes from start to finish to prepare. Of course, you can substitute the chicken thighs with pork or beef for an equally great result. Beef should give the dish an even bolder taste. Choose tender cuts of meat since the meat cooks quickly, contrary to a stew where the meat cooks slowly and tougher cuts can be used.

Heavy yard work is a great way to add variation to your regular exercise program, while light gardening can be great for exercise beginners. If you do yard work as a way to burn calories, take full advantage of what the great outdoors have to offer:
- Use a push mower instead of a riding tractor. This adds intensity so that you're working harder, elevating that heart rate, and burning more calories.
- If you are raking up leaves, change the movement and direction to make full use of your muscles. Rake in front of your body to target your shoulders. Rake both right to left and left to right to work both arms evenly. This way, you'll help prevent blisters by avoiding repetitive motions too.
- If you're using a wheelbarrow to haul yard waste, soil, or mulch, take an extra loop or two around your garden before you set your goods down.
- When digging, switch back and forth between hands so that you are utilizing both arms. Instead of using a small watering can, heave the heavy hose around the yard with you. You?ll also have to use those muscles to put it away and wind it up when you're done.
Grow! Enjoy the outdoors. Weed, mulch, dig and rake. Try all of these activities, get your hands in the dirt, and include yard work as a part of your healthy lifestyle.
