CANADIAN MUSEUM FOR HUMAN RIGHTS — A CALL FOR INCLUSIVENESS, EQUITY AND FAIRNESS
Featured Article
The CMHR represents a unique opportunity for Canada to be recognized as a leader in reflecting and further advancing contemporary research on genocide and human rights and in telling the story of all genocides without any attempt to represent the suffering of one nation, tribe or community as having been of more relevance or importance than any other’s. All attempts to do so argue fundamentally do an injustice to the memory of the many millions of victims of genocide throughout the ages, whether they suffered in Europe, or somewhere else.
How did Canada get its name? Most Canadians, if asked about the origins of the name “Canada”, will admittedly lament their ignorance of that part of Canadian history. Of those that do remember, they might even recall the “official” version of how Canada got its name, the one they received from the TV commercial “A Part Of Our Heritage – Canada.” After all, ...

Choose a Stationary Exercise Bike
posted on: 2012-02-08 21:31:29
One of the most frequently asked question is: "What is more effective for your home gym, a stationary exercise bike or a treadmill?" The decision is not as simple as that. First, you need to answer four basic questions about your attitude and purpose.
First of all, both, a stationary exercise bike and a treadmill help you perform outdoor activities indoors. Outdoors, you certainly would not get bored easily as indoors as you wouldn't look at the same wall / window / picture all the time. Secondly, you need to decide what 'more effective' means to you? Taken just on their own, neither a stationary exercise bike nor a treadmill will do the job well. They need to slot into an integrated solution together with nutrition and strength training. Thirdly, you know best the threshold of your 'sustainability' level. If you don't sustain your exercise regimen, neither machine will help. If you don't enjoy running or stationary exercise bikes are boring for you, neither machine will do much apart from gathering dust. Fourthly, do you like your workout being dictated by the machine? This is a frequently overlooked factor. Outdoors, you are in charge, whatever you do. Indoors, the stationary exercise bike leaves you in control the while treadmill dictates your movements. Once you have your answers to these four basic questions, you then look at four more detailed questions that will help you make the right decision: cost, injuries, calories, and your neighbors.
After the initial outlay for either, operating a stationary exercise bike is free while a treadmill will always require electricity for your workout. Injuring yourself by falling off is a danger inherent to treadmills. You can slip, or you can lose your step if your mind wanders off during exercise. Other possible injuries are damages to your joints, above all your knees, just as with running outdoors. Finally, if you have young children in the house, then for their safety the room with your treadmill must be locked when you don't use it.
By contrast, people generally don't fall off stationary exercise bikes. Here, not only indoors is definitely safer than outdoors, they are also safer than treadmills. Furthermore, fully adjustable seat and handlebars on upright bikes will give you the correct posture to help prevent straining your joints and your back. Recumbent bikes go even further. They don't create any strain for your joints, especially your knees, and the seat will give you correct ergonomic support for back and neck. On a like-for-like comparison, treadmills burn more calories than stationary exercise bikes.
As a rule of thumb, at the same level of intensity you need to cover 4 times the running distance to achieve the same effect on your exercise bike. Calorie burn rates will, of course, also vary from one person to another depending on the percentage of your body's lean muscle mass. Beyond the consideration of cost, injuries and calories, which ultimately only concern you, a social factor also comes into play: your neighbors.
Using a stationary exercise bike is a fairly quiet affair. These bikes are, therefore, suitable wherever you live, even in an apartment building. Treadmills, though, are noisy and can easily become a nuisance for neighbors living in the apartment below.
