Car Free Fridays and Lunch Breaks for Cyclists

News Release City of Long Beach Public Information Office

On Friday, January 1, the community is invited to participate in Car Free Fridays and Lunch Breaks for Cyclists.  The Car-Free Fridays campaign was launched this summer to encourage community members to ride a bicycle or use another form of alternative transportation the first Friday of every month to promote a more active, green Long Beach.

An added benefit of biking to work on designated Car-Free Fridays is taking advantage of “lunch break” discounts of up to 20 percent for cyclists, which are offered at more than 20 eateries in Long Beach between 11 am and 2 pm. Cyclists need only mention the promotion and show proof of ridership – helmet or bicycle lock key – to take advantage of the discounts.

For an updated list of participating Long Beach restaurants, please visit www.bikelongbeach.org.

Sugar Alert

This entire web site is a ‘SugarAlert’ on the ill-effects received from eating too much refined sugar. Most importantly, it is nothing but empty calories that dangerously raise the insulin level as soon as we eat it. Too much of it into the bloodstream upsets the body’s blood-sugar balance, triggering the release of insulin.

Generally, everyone is designed to safely eat 2,000 good calories each day. Nutritionists support the importance of eliminating table sugar whenever possible, or at least limiting consumption to no more than 8 teaspoons of refined sugar (32 grams) per day.

High Flying, Adored – 15-Year-Old Girl Pilots a Plane Coast to Coast
by Sally Worsham Jul 13th 2009 6:00PM

On Saturday, July 11, 2009, 15-year-old Kimberly Anyadike finished a record-breaking flight across the country, becoming what is believed to be the youngest African-American female to pilot an airplane from coast to coast.

The adventurous teenager flew from Compton Woodley Airport in Compton, CA, to Newport News, VA , and back, making thirteen stops along the way. Her flight companions were an adult safety pilot and Levi Thornhill, an 87-year-old World War II veteran who flew with the Tuskegee Airmen, an all African-American combat unit in the U.S.

Tony Hansberry II isn’t waiting to finish medical school to contribute to improved medical care. He has already developed a stitching technique that can be used to reduce surgical complications, as well as the chance of error among less experienced surgeons.

“I’ve always had a passion for medicine,” he said in a recent interview. “The project I did was, basically, the comparison of novel laparoscopic instruments in doing a hysterectomy repair.”

By the way, Hansberry is a 14-year-old high school freshman.

In April, the brilliant teen presented his findings at a medical conference at the University of Florida before an audience of doctors and board-certified surgeons.  Hansberry attends
