The last exercise on my list is the Negative pull up, its’ not new, I know, but there is something about it that I really like. The technique applied doesn’t focus on the concentric action, what you have here is an exercise that focuses on the eccentric contraction. When you oppose the negative force (or resist it), it gives a powerful stretch to your lat’s fiber.

Our favorite Christmas ornament is a Fred Flintstone baby bottle. Fred was our daughter Ginger’s favorite. Fred has been on our Christmas tree 40 years. The story is, one snowy night 40 years ago ready for bed, she bit the nipple off the bottle. There were no more nipples in the house. We were trying to wean her off the bottle.

Underneath Varsano’s burnished charm is the working-class New Jersey of his youth. At one point, he made T-shirts for his friends and prospective clients that said, “Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, stop apologizing for your success, buy a jet!” He is known for his honesty and diligence, as well as a certain slickness to his operation. On a shared panel at the Geneva fair, an industry journalist looked over at Varsano and said, “Steve is a guy, he goes to one wedding in India and he came back having sold eight jets.” He bristles at the idea, however, that he is a good salesman who happens to sell airplanes. When the third-generation scion of a private-fleeted family told him he should diversify his wares, Varsano just shook his head. Planes are what he knows and has adored since childhood. “I don’t want to be the guy opening up the trench coat” — he pantomimed a black-market peddler — “saying, I got watches in here, yachts over here, real estate here.”

The only way to “Properly” crimp a connector is with the manufacturer’s own tool. Anything else is improvising, which may or may not be reliable. JST’s crimp tools are awesome – expensive but if doing it for production will pay for themselves in the long term.

Ohlsson opened the second movement at a whisper, unfolding the tenderness and longing of one of Beethoven’s most impeccable melodies — at least until the encore — by creating the impressive illusion of hardly striking the keys at all. (Hard to be sure, but telekinesis may have been involved.)
