Ever wondered how that glass of red wine or weekend beer binge affects your muscle gain or fat loss? You're not alone! In this episode, we're breaking down the complex relationship between alcohol and performance. No, this isn't an anti-alcohol rant, but a real talk about what alcohol does to your gains.

What to Expect:

• The Alcohol Question: From a casual drink with dinner to weekend partying, we're exploring how alcohol impacts your bodybuilding journey.
• The Complexity of Alcohol: It's not just about "to drink or not to drink." We're diving into the nuances of timing, quantity, and the real effects on your body.
• The Facts and Myths: No scientific jargon here, just straightforward insights into how alcohol affects protein synthesis, testosterone levels, dehydration, vitamins, and fat storage.

Highlights:

1. Protein Synthesis: Excessive drinking can hinder how your body absorbs and uses protein, slowing down your gains.
2. Testosterone Levels: Alcohol can lower testosterone and increase estrogen, not what you want when building muscle.
3. Dehydration: Alcohol can dehydrate you, affecting your strength and performance in the gym.
4. Vitamins and Minerals: Excessive drinking can deplete essential vitamins and minerals, impacting overall health.
5. Fat Storage: Alcohol's empty calories can lead to increased fat storage, especially if consumed excessively.

Personal Insights:

• Marc's Experience: I share my personal journey with alcohol, from daily red wine to cutting back, and how it affected my body.
• Real-Life Stories: Hear about a friend who dropped 20 pounds just by changing his drinking habits.

Conclusion:

Whether you're bulking, cutting, or just trying to stay fit, understanding how alcohol affects your performance is key. It's not about complete abstinence but finding the right balance for your goals. Track your diet, be mindful of your choices, and remember, moderation is key.

Went and saw the salesman in his office today to sign the building contract. First piece of good news was that the house plan was given the preliminary go ahead from the local council despite the problems I discussed yesterday. Of course there is a chance that they may change their mind and we may end up having to alter the plan to comply with some bureaucratic requirement. This could potentially mean more costs.

The building contract we signed was the standard contract offered by the Housing Industry Association here in Australia. Using the standard contract, written in plain English makes the whole process a lot easier to understand. The salesman was great and took us through every section of the contract and explained its purpose and potential effects on us. Key things that came out of it are:

The whole process took a bit over an hour and included some preliminary selections for the house such as the shape of internal archways. It would have taken longer but the salesman's printer ran out of ink and some of the paperwork was not signed. This will be mailed to us in the next week.

In spite of not signing some paperwork with the main contract signed and the deposit paid the actual process of building can start. This will include drawing up a site plan, conducting soil tests and writing engineering reports, and submitting the plans to council for development and building approval. We've been told 3-4 months from today we can expect the foundations to go down. Here's hoping it's only that long!

There is an industry trend toward more direct listener monetization and engagement. This includes crowdfunding, membership, tipping, and donations, as well as exclusive and premium content.

This is a healthy development — expanding the range of touch points with listeners beyond the ad impression and helping publishers diversify their revenue and business models. The trend speaks to the depth of experience that spoken-word audio elicits, and it encompasses other podcast engagement strategies such as live shows, email newsletters, fan clubs, surveys, and experiments with personalization and interactivity.

The online versus traditional classroom debate has been going on for some time now. You can't get through one blog on eLearning or modern education without finding a discussion of the pros and cons of the digital classroom and online degree programs. The debate has been going for some time now and has seen many different facets and opinions. While online schools were shunned from the start, today they have grown and flourished into highly regarded institutions for higher learning. Today, rather than simply disregarding online learning as a lesser option to brick-and-mortar schools, people are beginning to see the two entities as options for different learning styles and lifestyles. There are many people who can benefit and really grow from their experience in the online classroom. Online learning facilitates many of the same skills traditional learning does, but has a few added elements. As our society becomes more and more married to the online and digital world, a comfort and ease in these areas becomes very important in the professional world.  The following three skills, essential in the corporate world today, are established and perfected in the online classroom.

I was having so much fun taking Wordpress and customizing it to match my new website, that my wife had to get up and convince me to come to bed at 3 a.m. last night. Wordpress is really well designed. You can customize just about everything, and I love the way its implemented. There is a great tutorial on How to Create a Wordpress Theme that I was using as a guide.

That progress made me feel much better after the frustration I had a few days ago. Add one more "solution found" to that list: I couldn't get Wordpress to work on my machine under IIS as a subdirectory - it would always give a 404 Page Not Found error. It only worked at the //localhost level. But I stumbled upon that answer after lots of searching. Such a trivial answer, and something that should have been documented in the installation guide, but wasn't. I loved it when I saw the answer ended with: "Easy when you know how :)"

The other great discovery today was a free software package called XP Pro IIS Admin. It gets around a restriction in IIS on Windows XP, and allows you to create multiple websites on the local machine and easily switch between them. I love this utility and it is saving me lots of time as I develop and test everything on my own machine instead of having to do it on my webhost.

Should have the blog finished in not too long, and then I'll start next to set up the Vanilla Forum.

Website design can be elusive to even creative individuals. Sadly some webmasters do not realize their incompetence and they post websites that have grainy graphics and turgid colors. If you are one of these webmasters and have seen the error of your ways, consider this. Your website is a sales tool. A professional layout and design can significantly increase sales and conversion rates, gaining you customers. Businesses can greatly benefit from a professional and unforgettable logo that sets them apart from their competition. Logos are not just fancy graphics that adorn websites or letterhead, logos are a representation of a businesses' philosophy. Logos are a critical component of brand development.

Many webmasters do not realize that all images on the web are copy written and it is in many cases illegal to use an image that you find on the web without properly licensing it. Fortunately, for the graphically challenged websmasters there are a whole host of resources available to assist with web and graphic design. There are logo websites where you can purchase a single logo for a fixed fee, or subscription websites that allow you to purchase a subscription and download multiple logos. The logo is often the starting point for web design. Many webmasters use the companies logo to develop the website, the rest of the design evolves around the logo.
