o here it is, Spring 'Well' 2004, 5 years old and counting. T.S. Eliot told us that, "April is the cruelest month" but not through my eyes. I prefer the words of Susan Bissonette who said, "An optimist is the human personification of spring." 
Dr. Atkins gives a compelling summary of The Atkins Diet in 'Weapons of Mass Reduction'. We admired the initiative, but were disappointed in the Special K pedometer. There's the joy of 'Kapiolani Park' and the sadness of the 'Last Supper'.
Don't miss the utterly remarkable photos of the work of plastic surgeon Bill Magee in 'My Favorite Things'. Dr. Magee literally is helping a damaged world to smile. 'Walking the Talk' reminds us in many different ways that Mark Knopfler was right when he sang, "Do the walk, do the walk of life."
'Well' would not exist were it not for the artistry, input and presentation skills of Ron Nye, the insight, editing and photography of Bev Mason, and the sense of humor they both possess.

Weapons of Mass Reduction Last Thoughts on Dr. Atkins |  | The Not So Special K |  |
"The recidivism rate of most diets falls into the 95 percent range, which indicates that very few people want to follow them. I predict that my diet will be the first diet to achieve the long-term effectiveness award, and the reason is that it is easy to follow. It's easy to comply with. You're never hungry." ~ Dr.Atkins | "So far I have received individual reports on 36 Special K pedometers by email, phone call and personal interviews, only three could be interpreted as being really positive." |
Super Size Me ...Not Any More |  | Walking the Talk Words of Wisdom on Walking & Pedometers |  |
"Morgan Spurlock, against his doctor's advice, ate exclusively at McDonalds for a month and accepted any and every offer to super size his meals." | "Put on your ped and do it, get off your bed and do it.
Don't turn on the tube and say, 'Oh screw it'.
Let's do it. Let's just take a walk." |
Well: Over 100 Acres Kapiolani Park |  | The Last Supper |  |
"As far as I'm concerned, when the sun sets on my life you can scatter my ashes on Kapiolani Park, where they can mingle with the ancient volcanic ash of Diamond Head and be trampled into the ground by the feet of people at play." | "The meals themselves perhaps tell us more about the people we choose to execute than detailed profiles and crime statistics." |
Speaker Profile: Deborah Jones |  | My Favorite Things |  |
"For those struggling to 'keep up with the Jones', it's difficult to keep pace with this one! Meet Deborah Jones - workplace wellness expert, entrepreneur, yoga enthusiast and speaker!" | "In this issue, the 'things' are people and they are dedicated doctors, teachers and nurses. These are people who make a difference and I've been reminded of that in a number of ways in the past couple of months.." |
