Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) Radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with former Governor George Allen from the Commonwealth of Virginia. Our conversation is focused on the following topics: —Advancing U.S. state competition and the urgency to make America more competitive in the global arena. —Securing energy independence in America | Initiative for a modular nuclear reactor in Virginia. —The unsustainable US debt exacerbated by the growing interest rate. —A Convention of States is much closer than you think. Learn about the growing momentum for a Convention of States aimed at creating a balanced budget amendment. Listen to how many states have joined this principled initiative. “I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution. I would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our government to the genuine principles of its Constitution; I mean an article, taking from the Federal government the power of borrowing.” — Thomas Jefferson's statement just two years after the Constitution had been in effect, argued for a a Constitutional amendment to curtail Federal government spending. Brief Bio: At the conclusion of his term as Governor of Virginia, George Allen viewed with satisfaction the monumental reforms his administration achieved that made Virginia a national model in economic development, public safety, education accountability, and welfare reform. The Washington Post called Allen “one of the most influential governors in recent Virginia history”. The Richmond Times-Dispatch recently praised Allen's campaign “among the most policy-driven campaigns in gubernatorial history.” Keeping the promises he made to Virginians, and working with a Democratic-controlled General Assembly, Allen successfully cut taxes by more than $600 million; instituted high academic Standards of Learning and School Performance Report Cards; made neighborhoods safer with the abolition of parole; initiated historic, pro-work welfare reforms; enacted the nation's first Public-Private Transportation funding system; repealed or amended 71% of all regulations; reduced the size of government with greater efficiency and accountability; and grew the economy – making sure the world knew “Virginia is Open for Business”. With added revenues, Allen was able to freeze tuition rates at universities and community colleges. Allen's administration recruited over $13 billion in new investments and created more than 300,000 net new private sector jobs. When Allen was sworn in as Governor in 1994, coal and cigarettes were Virginia's top exports; after four years of Allen's tireless dedication to economic-development, semiconductor chips became Virginia's top export, leading U.S. News and World Report to dub Virginia the “Silicon Dominion”.

Good morning, RVA! It's 47 °F, and today looks sunny and wonderful with highs in the 70s. NBC12's Andrew Freiden says it's his Verified Best Weather Day of the Week™ and that it caps off the “third warmest Meteorological Winter in Richmond's history.” If I weren't headed to VCU's final home game of the season, I'd spend the evening out getting lost in the woods. I hope you find the time today to get out there and enjoy it! Water cooler This past Sunday, Henrico County Supervisor Tyrone Nelson hit a person riding their bike with his car. From NBC12's report: “The Henrico Police Department says Tyrone Nelson failed to give a three-foot distance when trying to pass the cyclist in the 6500 block of Osborne Turnpike around 11:45 a.m.” This block of Osborne Turnpike is just 1.5 miles from where a driver hit and killed Jonah Holland while she was riding her bike this past August. There's no doubt that this stretch of road is dangerous, but how many people need to get hurt or killed before the County does anything about it? If an elected official, someone who has the actual power to make this street safer, can hit someone with their car and just move on with life...I don't know. Depressing. Michael Martz at the Richmond Times-Dispatch has some electoral next steps now that we've got this past weekend's firehouse primaries behind us. First up, the special election on March 28th, and then the Democratic primary on June 20th (which gears up for the big November election). Also this is the first reporting I've read that confirms soon-to-be Senator Bagby (from the now-old 9th Senate District) will run in the new 14th Senate District in that June 20th primary. Speaking of the General Assembly, Bob Lewis at the Virginia Mercury pulls the numbers on the part-timedness of our commonwealth's legislative body. Given the ridiculously short amount of time our legislators spend actually legislating (just 46 days this year), to get through all of the bills submitted they'd need to “average final action on 45 bills per day.” Impossible! What's also impossible is changing the system to something that makes a little more sense. I think a lot folks like how the General Assembly works because it's weird, brutal, and inaccessible—sort of like an unnecessarily painful badge of civic honor. Today is the very last day that you can weigh in on the City's plan to bring bike lanes to Westover Hills Boulevard from the Nickel Bridge to points south. I encourage you to fill out the quick survey if you haven't already, asking for physical protection along the lanes and (kindly) reminding the City's Department of Public Works that sharrows are not real infrastructure. Additionally, the folks at Bike Walk RVA point out that extending the bike lane down 49th Street to a residential dead end doesn't connect anything to anywhere at the moment, and the proposal should, instead, continue the lanes down Westover Hills Boulevard south to Crutchfield. If, like me, you have to see it on a map, I crayoned Bike Walk RVA's preferred alignment here. So, to recap: 1) Add protection the the bike lanes, 2) Don't use sharrows, and 3) Extend the bike lanes on Westover Hills Boulevard to Crutchfield. Take four minutes and fill out the survey this morning (it's your last day to do so!). This morning's longread Let Lily Kwong—and a Mountainful of Orchids—Resensitize Your Cold, Dead Heart First, orchids! Second, I thought this was an incredibly thoughtful answer to the nihilistic question (which I see pop up in internet discourse constantly) of “why do anything at all, isn't everything terrible?” Before I go, I'm curious how Kwong, whose work in horticulture and urban design has also sought to address issues of native gardening and food insecurity, sees how these flashy, large-scale stunners, often brought to life at the behest of corporate brand partnerships, exist in conversation with her overall mission to connect people with the natural world. In response, Kwong eagerly asks me if I've ever been to Muir Woods. “They're the tallest trees in the world—literally these ancient giants that are hundreds of years old,” she says, thinking back to her childhood again. “It's a spiritual experience walking through them,” Kwong explains. “It feels almost like a cathedral…that is my framework of how I first connected with nature. So, when I do a piece like this, or Grand Central, I'm trying to channel that frequency of awe. Because in my experience, from awe came the curiosity. Then came education, knowledge, understanding, and stewardship.” If you'd like to suggest a longread to show up here, go chip in a couple bucks on the ol' Patreon.

Ever since I was a young kid, I wanted to be a “strong man”.  In high school, I was the starting running back for my football team, and led the county in rushing yards. I then went on to receive my bachelor's degree from Columbia University in 2004, where I was a member of the football team and a three-time Dean's List recipient. After college, I pursued my Master's of Science in Human Performance from the University of Florida, where I worked with the national championship men's basketball team, along with women's basketball, tennis, and golf programs. I then went on to become the Strength & Conditioning coordinator for VCU basketball, helping the Rams win the 2007 conference championship and making it to the second round of the NCAA tournament. To read a Richmond Times Dispatch article on my approach, click here.  I have been out of collegiate Strength & Conditioning for almost a decade, but I have continued to compete in sports such as crossfit, powerlifting, half marathons, and now rowing. In June of 2016 I discovered the ketogenic lifestyle and I never looked back. I found so many benefits within a week of switching, that I knew this would be my new way of life. Inflammation and injuries from years of playing on turf and beating myself up with heavy lifting were gone. I regained control over my hunger and found a mental clarity and increase in productivity that I had never experienced before. In August of 2017, after over a year of dipping their toes in the water, our two boys joined us. Desmond, our eldest, felt an immediate increase in energy and improvement in his allergies and asthma. Dean, our youngest, has had astounding improvements in his eczema and mood. Our children are immune to cravings. It has been an amazing thing to see. We thought our kids were “picky” just like most kids supposedly are; keto changed their taste buds and now they crave real, nourishing food like the recipes you will find on this PDF. Best of all, they do not feel restricted in any way! We understand that transitioning the family can be challenging, so we hope this blog helps you conveniently transition your entire family to a low carb lifestyle so that you, too, can experience all of the profound benefits we have!
