Employers need to verify education to ensure their candidates have earned the credentials necessary to perform the job.
The education verification service provides confirmation of the claimed degree, diploma (or GED) or certificate obtained or attended, as reported by the candidate. In addition, attendance dates, graduation date and major (or field of study) may be verified.
Orange Tree’s education verification process
A request is sent to the candidate to provide their name at the time their degree/diploma was earned, the name of the institution attended, the city/state of the institution, the type of degree and subject studied, and the month/year the degree was earned. Once candidates have provided their education history and we have confirmed the accuracy of information, our verification team will proceed with confirming the information.
Orange Tree makes three valid attempts over three days to contact the institution for verification. “Valid attempts” include contacting a confirmed resource. This contact is with an authorized contact in the registrar’s office or similar department.
Orange Tree offers the following add-on services:
- We acquire valid documentation of the degree or diploma from the candidate. While we provide the mechanism for enabling the candidate to easily upload a copy of their credential via our CandidateConnect® portal, the client verifies that it meets their requirements.
- We make additional attempts as defined by our client’s business requirements.
Understanding Education Verification Results
All education verification services have the same reporting format. The city and state
the school is located, details on who verified the information, and the service completion
date is provided.
The ‘Provided’ column is the information provided for the order. The ‘Actual’ column is the information verified. Any discrepant information will be in bold font.
Discrepancy and Attention Criteria:
- Degree Type – Unable to verify a degree earned when applicant reported having received a degree
- Attendance – Unable to verify attendance (or degree) when applicant reported attendance
- Degree Type – Verified difference in degree level for all degrees (e.g. Bachelor and Master), and or difference in degree type (within same level), where level is higher than Bachelor (e.g. Master of Social Work and Master of Business Administration)
- Major – Verified difference between the major reported and the major verified, where fields are dissimilar
- Graduation Date – Verified graduation date is more than 1 year different (before or after) from graduation date that was reported. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Stakeholder engagement in evaluation of Value for Investment
Research 31 Oct 2023 4 minute readInvolving the right stakeholders and balancing their input can help evaluate whether programs and initiatives provide value, a recent conference has heard.
ACER researchers Dr Kerry Elliott and Dr Hilary Hollingsworth joined Dr Julian King at the Australian Evaluation Society 2023 International Evaluation Conference to share their experiences from 2 projects: one focusing on school leadership and the other on teacher professional learning.
Their presentation highlighted how 'participatory evaluation' can provide a more comprehensive understanding of programs' value. It also introduced the Value for Investment approach as a practical and participatory tool for guiding such evaluations, and engaging stakeholders in the process.
The importance of participatory approaches in evaluation
The presenters began by emphasising the importance of involving the right stakeholders and balancing 'voices' in the evaluation process, arguing it can lead to more valid, credible, and useful evaluations. While cost-benefit analysis is a common method for assessing value for money, the researchers argue Value for Investment provides greater opportunity to understand initiatives and their impact more deeply. This perspective aligns with the principles of the General Logic of Evaluation and New Zealand’s professional standards for ethical evaluation practice.
Engaging stakeholders in the evaluation process
The project clients recognised the limitations of using cost-benefit analysis alone to understand the value of the initiatives. To address this challenge, the researchers introduced new ways of working that required participants to engage actively in the evaluation process. They focused on building deep stakeholder input into various aspects of the evaluation, including key evaluation questions, context analysis, program theory, data gathering methods, and reporting formats. This produced agreed-upon frameworks to evaluate the evidence.
The Value for Investment approach
The researchers used the Value for Investment approach to bring clarity to their evaluations. Developed through Dr King's doctoral research, this approach helps make the evaluation process practical and intuitive, particularly for stakeholders who may not have been involved in such evaluations before.
The Value for Investment approach involves an 8-step process:
- understanding the program and context, including posing clear evaluative questions
- building a rubric or ‘prism’ by identifying performance criteria
- defining the standards for levels of performance
- determining the mix of evidence needed
- gathering credible evidence
- analysing each stream of evidence
- reaching evaluative judgments
- preparing the evaluation report.
This process allows for a holistic understanding of the program and context within which the program is implemented, and a shift to analytic thinking.
Challenges and benefits of a participatory approach
Drs King, Elliott and Hollingsworth acknowledge that a participatory approach can be challenging, as it requires time to build relationships and trust. Additionally, external factors such as political pressures or changes in management can hinder participatory evaluation efforts. Overcoming these challenges requires patience and persistence.
The researchers consider evaluation as ‘a collaborative, social practice’ and aim to incorporate stakeholder input into every step, including the evaluation design and conduct. This inclusivity supports the credibility and validity of the findings and ensures that the evaluation will be useful and used by those involved.
King, Elliott and Hollingsworth describe their journey through participatory evaluation and the application of the Value for Investment approach as ‘transformative’. Involving stakeholders in the evaluation process enriched the quality of the evaluations and empowered those most affected by the programs. They emphasise that a relational approach to ‘value for money’ is positive and possible when stakeholders are actively engaged and included.

Beránek, J., Böhm, S., & Cima, V. (2022). Analysis of workflow schedulers in simulated distributed environments. The Journal of Supercomputing, 78(13), 15154-15180.
Task graphs provide a simple way to describe scientific workflows (sets of tasks with dependencies) that can be executed on both HPC clusters and in the cloud. An important aspect of executing such graphs is the used scheduling algorithm. Many scheduling heuristics have been proposed in existing works; nevertheless, they are often tested in oversimplified environments. We provide an extensible simulation environment designed for prototyping and benchmarking task schedulers, which contains implementations of various scheduling algorithms and is open-sourced, in order to be fully reproducible. We use this environment to perform a comprehensive analysis of workflow scheduling algorithms with a focus on quantifying the effect of scheduling challenges that have so far been mostly neglected, such as delays between scheduler invocations or partially unknown task durations. Our results indicate that network models used by many previous works might produce results that are off by an order of magnitude in comparison to a more realistic model. Additionally, we show that certain implementation details of scheduling algorithms which are often neglected can have a large effect on the scheduler’s performance, and they should thus be described in great detail to enable proper evaluation. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The shift to working from home during these times has become an adjustment for organizations across the US. In this course, LinkedIn Learning Instructor Dave Crenshaw talks about some familiar struggles of working from home and how to remain productive.
Many of the time management challenges we see working from home can be attributed to freedom. The office has a certain structure and boundary to it, while the home does not. Create your own boundaries in your new workspace to remain productive. A workspace provides a physical and mental barrier between your work and your personal life. The stronger the visual difference you can keep between this workspace and the rest of your home, the better.
Freedom to create your own schedule can be tricky, so account for certain periods of time in your schedule. Know that you will get interrupted during the day and build some unplanned time in your schedule to catch up on the tasks you missed when you got interrupted. Schedule breaks to do something enjoyable throughout the day. Holding yourself back from a break actually degrades your performance over time.
The most important part of working from home is communication—determine ground rules for working from home with your employer. If the company has an established history of employees who work from home, they probably already have these ground rules and policies in place for you to follow. If not, schedule a meeting with your supervisor to see what they expect from you while you work from home. What are expected response times for emails? What are the criteria your supervisor has to determine whether you’re an effective employee while working from home?
Make sure virtual meetings go smoothly by familiarizing yourself with the technology you’re using, removing visual distractions in your background, dressing according to typical office dress code and letting the other people in your home know when you will be in a virtual meeting.
Quick questions will come up more often when you work from home—you’ll get frequent emails or instant messages from your colleagues that require you to switch from what you’re working on, answer, and then switch your focus back. These happen often enough that you end up putting out small fires and not getting any work done. Avoid this by having one-on-ones with your supervisor or employees once a week dedicated to these quick questions.
If you’re working from home at the same time as others who live with you, discuss boundaries between yourselves, too. Be open about your work schedule and making small adjustments to accommodate their needs. Stick to the agreement you make. If you live with children, help them understand your “at-home” hours and “at-work” hours. To help them make the transition, set aside a few hours a day where everyone in the home can work or play quietly in the house so the kids can entertain themselves—not rely on you.
Most issues with working from home revolve around time, and these issues with time revolve around how well you can handle certain freedoms. If you can build boundaries at work and home, you can be just as productive at home as you are at the office.

Self-declared independent state of Somaliland has announced its decision to shut down social media networks on election day November 13, until the results are released.
The National Electoral Commission (NEC) said on Friday that the move is to avoid the spread of fake news in the country.
NEC declared Social media will be shutting down on the voting day, until the result comes out for fake news avoiding #somaliland.
— SLNEC (@NEC2017) November 10, 2017
The decision will also affect the flow of information to observers outside the country of the election touted to be the first incident-free polls to be held in the Horn of Africa.
Somaliland’s decision follows those of Uganda, Congo, Chad, Gabon, Niger, and Gambia where internet connection was blocked during their elections last year. The blockade did not reduce controversies during those elections.
Countries such as Ghana, Zambia, and recently Rwanda, Angola, Kenya and Liberia kept their internet active and were not threatened by fake news.
Three candidates are vying to replace the Somaliland’s fourth president Ahmed Mohamed Silanyo who withdrew from running for a second seven-year term.
The country will be the first in Africa to use the iris-recognition biometric voter registration system.
Out of the about 4 million Somaliland population, 704, 089 registered voters are expected to elect the new president. There are 1,642 polling stations in the 21 constituencies across the six regions of the country.
A team of 60 international election observers from 24 countries have been deployed to the country by the international election observation mission (EOM) funded by the British government.
Somaliland has held successful presidential elections in 2003 and 2010 including a parliamentary election in 2005.
They declared unilateral independence from Somalia on May 18, 1991. It has been under pressure to hold talks with Somalia which have so far been futile.
Described as the most peaceful state in the Horn of Africa region, Somaliland can boast of an army, its own currency and legal system.
The territory has been experiencing stability and economic prosperity. It has been influential in the fight against piracy and terrorism in the Horn of Africa.
26 years of diplomatic isolation has made it difficult for Somaliland to have access to loans from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund.
It is regarded as the autonomous region of Somalia and not a sovereign state. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
For decades, slot machines fascinated gamers with their brilliant lights, interesting sounds, and spin thrill. Every slot game is fundamentally based on its symbols, each with meaning that adds to the whole gaming experience. Knowing these symbols will improve your playing and enable you to maximize your time at the slots. With Slot gacor hari ini we examine the several kinds of slot symbols and their implications for every player.
Variations of Slot Symbols
The most often occurring type seen in slot machines are standard symbols. Usually they consist of the icons connected to the theme of the game, including letters, fruits, or numbers. Usually, these symbols constitute the simple combinations required for payments. Your payoff increases with the increasing number of these symbols you find on a payline. Understanding the structure of the game and figuring out possible payouts depend on knowing standard symbols.
Variable and able to replace other symbols, wild symbols assist in creating winning combos. In the game, they serve as a “wild card,” therefore raising your chances of obtaining a winning combo. While some wilds are “expanding,” covering whole reels when they show, others are “stacked,” meaning they show in bunches on the reels. Knowing the part wild symbols play will greatly improve your game’s approach.
Scatter symbols are special in that they do not require a specific payline to set off a payout or bonus feature. Usually activating free spins, bonus rounds, or other special bonuses is landing a specific number of scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. They can significantly increase your odds of winning and are generally connected with better prizes.
Bonus symbols set off particular slot machine games or features. Usually connected to interactive mini-games or special rounds providing extra means of winning, these symbols represent The game determines the kind and nature of the extra feature; hence, it’s crucial to become familiar with how these symbols behave in every slot game.
Both newcomers and skilled gamers depend on an awareness of slot symbols to understand the latest trends, such as Slot gacor hari ini, for better gameplay. From basic icons to wilds and scatters, every kind of symbol has a particular function in influencing your possible earnings and improving the gaming experience. Knowing | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

When considering options for tooth replacement, you may come across two popular choices: traditional dental implants and the All-on-4 implant-supported dentures. Both options offer effective solutions for restoring your smile and improving the functionality of your bite, but they differ in several key aspects.
Cost of Implant-Supported Restorations
Traditional dental implants typically involve the placement of individual implants for each missing tooth, which can increase the overall cost of treatment, especially if you need multiple implants. However, the All-on-4 treatment uses four implants per arch to secure a full set of dentures, making it a more cost-effective option for patients seeking full-mouth restoration.
Traditional dental implant treatment often requires a surgical procedure to place the implant post and then you spend a few months recovering. This healing period of several months is needed for osseointegration (the fusion of the implants with the jawbone) before the final restoration can be attached. In contrast, the All-on-4 procedure allows for immediate placement of the implants, meaning that a temporary prosthesis can be attached on the same day as implant placement. This can significantly reduce the overall treatment time and provide patients with immediate aesthetic and functional benefits.
Bone Density and Volume
Traditional dental implants require adequate bone density and volume for successful placement and long-term stability. If you have experienced bone loss in the jaw due to tooth loss or other factors, bone grafting procedures may be necessary to build up the bone structure before implant placement.
Number of Implants
Traditional dental implants typically require the placement of one implant per missing tooth. This means that patients with multiple missing teeth may need a larger number of implants to support their restoration, increasing the complexity and cost of treatment. The All-on-4 option uses only four implants per arch to support a full set of replacement teeth, providing a more streamlined and efficient solution for patients needing full-mouth rehabilitation.
Maintenance and Care
Both traditional dental implants and All-on-4 implant-supported dentures require regular maintenance and care to ensure long-term success. Proper oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, and routine dental visits, are essential for maintaining the health of your implants and surrounding tissues. With traditional implants, each implant-supported restoration can be cleaned individually, while All-on-4 restorations require special care techniques to clean around the supporting implants and prosthetic teeth.
Aesthetics and Function
Both traditional dental implants and All-on-4 implants offer natural-looking and functional results, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Traditional implants provide individual support for each tooth replacement, offering maximum stability and customization for a natural appearance. The All-on-4 option provides full-arch support with fewer implants, offering an efficient and cost-effective solution for restoring your smile and improving oral function.
Making the Right Choice for You
Choosing between traditional dental implants and the All-on-4 dentures depends on various factors, including cost, treatment time, bone density, and personal preferences. While traditional implants offer individual support for each tooth replacement and may be preferable for some patients, the All-on-4 option provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for full-mouth restoration. Consult with your dentist to discuss your options and determine the best treatment plan for achieving your desired smile goals and restoring your oral health and the functionality of your bite.

“He’s doing great and is back to work,” a spokeman said.
Blank was speaking to the group after receiving the Technology Association of Georgia’s Captain of Innovation Award.
The spokesman for Blank said the owner would have no further comment.
During his speech, Blank also discussed the progress of the new stadium, the Braves move to Cobb County and his desire to keep the Falcons in the heart of the city.
He noted that the Blank Foundation has committed $30 million to help revive the Westside area near the new stadium.
He noted that the new stadium would environmentally responsible and use substantially less water consumption than the Georgia Dome.
In February, Blank announced that he had been receiving treatment for prostate cancer.
"In December I was diagnosed with a treatable form of prostate cancer," Blank said in a statement on Tuesday. "Over the last several weeks Angie (Macuga) and I have visited a number of expert doctors and hospitals across the country to identify the best treatment options for me.
“I have chosen an aggressive approach that will include surgery and the overall prognosis is good. I’m looking forward to getting this behind me and continuing a very active lifestyle, my upcoming wedding, as well as continued active involvement in our businesses and philanthropic efforts for years to come.”
Blank, 73, and Macuga, his fiancee, are engaged to be married in June.
Blank was in good spirits while discussing the condition of the football team, the premium seat license situation for the new stadium and the hopes for landing the Super Bowl in 2019 or 2020 at the Super Bowl.
Blank, a co-founder of Home Depot, purchased the team in February 2002 from owner Taylor Smith, the son of team founder Rankin M. Smith, Sr. He investigated buying the Atlanta Braves in 2006, but withdrew from consideration. He also has founded the MLS expansion franchise the Atlanta United FC, which is set to begin play in 2017.
The Falcons and the United are scheduled to open play in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in 2017.
The Falcons, who were purchased by Blank for $545 million, were estimated to be worth $1.67 billion by Forbes magazine in Sept. of 2015.
Blank’s ownership tenure has been colorful. The Falcons have reached two NFC championship games, finally posted back to back winning seasons in 2008 and 2009 and the team posted five straight winning seasons from 2008 to 2012.
Also, his ownership has been marred by some controversy. Early on he fired coach Dan Reeves, the only coach to lead the Falcons to a Super Bowl. There was also the federal dogfighting investigation into the activities of former quarterback Michael Vick, which led to a prison sentence and the team fortunes dipping.
Also, coach Bobby Petrino left the franchise after just 13 games in the middle of the 2007 season. He thought he was signing up to coach the talented Vick.
Blank, who’s often seen on the sidelines during games, also fired Mike Smith, the winningest coach in franchise history after the 2014 season. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

When I first received this Revlon By Marchesa Nail wraps I wasn’t too sure how I felt about them. The pattern is unlike any other I have every used but I decided to give them a go. They are part of 6 sets of nail wraps where designer Marchesa collaborated with Revlon to produce printed but elegant nail wraps.
Nail wraps are what I reach for when I am in a rush and don’t have time to wait for my nails to dry. These were particularly easy to use as I didn’t need to trim any as the width on these seems to be perfect for my nails .
The set comes with 30 nail wraps and a nail file which you use to remove the edges. The wraps are nice and thin too which means they don’t get terribly annoying and uncomfortable which is always a plus. Although they called 3D I’d say they are only slightly 3D and still remain practical. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
GM Daewoo is lifting the veil on a show car version of its much-anticipated long-wheelbase premium large sedan, the L4X.
The rear-wheel-drive product, which is close to a production version, permits a first glimpse into what GM Daewoo is pursuing as its premium large sedan. GM Daewoo's future flagship will boast a superior level of refinement, safety and comfort features.
"The L4X exemplifies what a true premium large sedan should be. It excels in the most fundamental virtues of its segment," said Michael Grimaldi, President and CEO of GM Daewoo. "For example, it has segment-leading interior space and rear seat comfort."
He added, "Our latest show car is not only stylish, it also offers an array of convenience features and luxury appointments to satisfy the most sophisticated Korean consumers."
The L4X comes with a powerful 3.6-liter V-6 powerplant that is matched with a smooth-shifting five-speed automatic transmission. The state-of-the-art alloy engine generates peak power and torque of 258 hp at 6,500 rpm and 34.7 kg.m at 3,200 rpm.
What makes the L4X stand out in terms of superior ride and handling are its sharpened chassis dynamics coupled with a longest-in-class 3,009-mm wheelbase, world-class structural stiffness and a sophisticated rear-wheel-drive system.
Its elegant exterior design, which will set it apart from other premium sedans, is characterized by a stretched silhouette and a wide stance accentuated by flared wheel arches. The longer rear doors are the key to the dramatic proportions, which are accentuated by a sweeping roofline and substantial wheel and tire package. As a result of the longest wheelbase among Korean large sedans, the wheels have been moved to the very corners of the car, making it look and perform in a stable and sporty manner.
Detail highlights include signature LED repeater lamps in the fender vents, striking LED tail lamps and bright chrome accents. Its bi-xenon headlamps and tail lamps have a high-tech, precise and almost diamond-like appearance, with finely detailed elements that make them sparkle and glisten. The bright chrome bodyside molding and chrome-highlighted door handles add a touch of sculptured elegance to the side.
The themes for the interior design are comfort, harmony, luxury and attention to detail. The L4X offers a spacious and safe passenger compartment that provides a prestigious driving environment with optimized storage, packaging and ergonomics.
To give owners second-to-none premium comfort, the production version of the new GM Daewoo flagship will feature an array of safety and convenience features, including a navigation system with Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) TV, bi-xenon headlamps, curtain air bags, tri-zone automatic temperature controls, power rear seats with three-step temperature control heating and rear-back massage, power rear-window curtains, roller blinds, a rearview camera and power-folding outside rearview mirrors.

In the grand symphony of creating a serene sleep sanctuary, bedsheets play a pivotal role. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these unassuming textiles directly impact your comfort and overall well-being. Whether you seek an oasis of relaxation or an expression of style, this comprehensive guide unveils the intricacies of choosing the ideal bedsheets that seamlessly merge quality, aesthetics, and value.
1. The Fabric that Defines Comfort:
At the core of any exceptional bedsheet lies its material. The versatility of cotton shines through, offering breathability and softness. For an opulent touch, Egyptian cotton with its longer fibres is a hallmark of luxury. If environmental responsibility aligns with your values, organic cotton is an eco-friendly option. On the other hand, microfiber sheets, noted for their affordability, hypoallergenic nature, and easy maintenance, cater to practical needs.
2. Unravelling Thread Count Mysteries:
Thread count remains a key buzzword, reflecting the number of threads woven into one square inch of fabric. Though a higher thread count usually implies smoother and softer sheets, it's not the sole determinant of quality. Balancing comfort with breathability is crucial. A thread count ranging between 200 and 800 often ensures the optimal combination.
3. Weave: The Tactile Delight:
The intricate weave of a bedsheets not only influences its texture but also its durability. Embrace the crisp coolness of percale weave, particularly suitable for warmer nights. Alternatively, savor the luxurious smoothness of sateen weave, which adds an exquisite touch to your bedding. Exploring different weaves will help you uncover your preference.
4. Size Matters: A Tailored Fit:
Striking the right fit is vital both aesthetically and functionally. Fitted sheets should embrace your mattress snugly, avoiding unsightly bunching or slipping. Measuring your mattress dimensions prior to purchase is a prudent step to ensure an impeccable fit.
5. The Art of Aesthetic Alignment:
Bedsheets extend beyond mere functionality, contributing to the visual harmony of your bedroom. The interplay of color and pattern can either harmonize with your existing décor or serve as a focal point. We should opt for timeless elegance with solid colors or infuse character with patterns that resonate with your style.
6. Care and Maintenance: Preserving Elegance:
Before sealing your choice, delve into the care instructions. Different materials warrant specific care regimes – some might necessitate gentle cold-water washing, while others can withstand particular detergents. Choose sheets that align seamlessly with your lifestyle and upkeep preferences.
7. Embracing Affordability without Compromise:
Exquisite quality need not come at a premium. Many budget-friendly options offer a commendable blend of comfort and durability. Be vigilant for special promotions, discounts, or bundled packages to maximize the value of your investment.
8. The Tenacity of Threads:
While thread count is important, the caliber of threads utilized is equally crucial. Threads that are long-staple or double-ply often denote superior durability and reduced susceptibility to pilling.
In the realm of bedsheets, the pursuit of perfection involves a delicate equilibrium of comfort, longevity, and aesthetics. Embark on a journey of exploration through various materials, weaves, and designs, tailoring your choice to your distinct preferences. Remember, investing in superior bedsheets transcends a mere transaction; it's an investment in your rejuvenation and contentment. Equipped with these insights, you're primed to transform your bedroom into a serene retreat that embraces both your slumber and style aspirations. The gateway to unparalleled comfort and elegance begins with the perfect bedsheets. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

We found this beautifully chippy lumber on the side of the road and snagged it knowing it would make a perfect table top someday. When I decided to build a table for our back patio makeover, I knew exactly what I had to make the top out of.
This was my very first build and the pocket hole plans made it so much easier than I thought it would be! I built the top first then modified the cut list dimensions based on the top. I also flipped the ends around so the braces would show on the inside instead of the outside.
I seriously can't get enough of the top, it's so pretty and I don't have to worry about it at all since it's already wonderfully rustic. The table fits six chairs perfectly. We are looking forward to having many evenings around this table with family and friends!
For the top, I sealed the underside with Thompson's Water Seal clear waterproofer, and have plans to seal the top with Miss Mustard Seed's Tough Coat Sealer (http://missmustardseed.com/2015/09/cleaning-sealing-chipping-antique-pieces/) | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Introduction to Anatomy Trains – Bring the book to life!
The Anatomy Trains bodymap lays out how fascia and muscles are connected in meridians throughout the body. Learn to map the pattern and shape the change – no matter what your modality in the manual therapy and movement worlds.
This workshop is intended for movement professionals – yoga and Pilates instructors, physical therapists and somatic practitioners, and manual therapists with an interest in the movement implications of these continuities.
All of the 12 ‘myofascial meridians’ join the individual muscles into functional complexes – each with a precise anatomy and ‘meaning’ in human posture and movement. Grasp of the Anatomy Trains system leads to practical new strategies to improve stability, coordination, and resolve long-standing dysfunctional patterns.
The workshop spends roughly equal time on 1) lecture/presentation of the concepts and the lines, 2) BodyReading and postural / movement analysis, and 3) stretching, “awakening”, and touch-cueing techniques from our (and your) movement education library.
This course helps you:
- BodyRead your client’s postural and movement patterns with greater accuracy and integration to get to the cause, not the symptom.
- Make global and meaningful changes in your clients’ movement patterns.
- Understand basic properties and connected nature of fascia, and tensegrity design applied to fascia and human movement.
- A succinct and relevant introduction to the fascial layers, and the properties (and debunk some of the myths) of your body’s connective tissues.
- Be able to identify and trace the 6 major and 6 supplemental fascial meridians along which movement, tension, and postural distortion travel.
- Be able to BodyRead postural patterns based on analysis of Anatomy Trains lines.
- Apply knowledge to construct alternative movement strategies to help unwind and resolve the patterns observed.
- Illustrated lecture
- Open inquiry atmosphere; questions encouraged; high degree of vitality and humor
- Participants will exchange palpation and practice BodyReading (visual assessment) on one another under supervised analysis of instructor and assistants. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Hey, thanks for listening! We hope you enjoyed the episode!
First off, here’s what these people looked like:
They look so different. Elagabalus is such a glowy, beautiful being and Caracalla’s rage is palpable. (Interestingly, even though it has so much personality, this bust of Caracalla isn’t contemporary to him–it was made in the 1700s by Bartolomeo Cavaceppi, who was drawing on an older bust that dated from the 200s–around the time of Caracalla’s reign).
Bear in mind, though, that although Elagabalus looks serene and almost angelic in this bust, he’s a kid who stabbed an advisor to death for giving him advice he didn’t like, and used to tie people to waterwheels and drown them at his parties. He and Caracalla were very different kinds of tyrant, but they were both tyrants.
Also, just for fun, we give you the head of infamous eight-foot-tall drill sergeant emperor-poodle Maximinius Thrax.
So very manly.
We drew a lot on the classical sources for this one. Cassius Dio is a great source–he was a highly-placed Roman statesman and contemporary to both these emperors. He may have known them both personally.
We used the Earnest Cary translation. Caracalla and Elagabalus are in Books 78-80:
A lot of details about Elagabalus came from the Historia Augusta. YMMV–since this is basically the National Enquirer of Ancient Rome–but it’s a colorful read. We used the David Magie translation:
Here’s that BBC Point of View clip of Mary Beard talking about Elagabalus and tyrant behavior. Well worth a listen.
If you’re looking for some more great podcasts that talk about these emperors, you can’t go wrong with History of Rome. Here are some links:
Plus a few fiction suggestions we made in the show. Here’s the story of Alexander the Great and Aristotle:
…and possibly the most infamous of the damnatio memoriae, Caligula. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
What you need to know
- Google is giving away free 2nd-gen Nest Hubs to new Google One 2Tb tier annual subscribers.
- The offer is valid in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Germany from now until December 10, 2021.
- After upgrading to the 2Tb annual plan, you'll receive a code in your email that can be redeemed for the 2nd-gen Nest Hub.
Running out of storage on your Google One plan? If you're considering upgrading your cloud storage amount, Google hopes you'll consider paying for the 2Tb plan on an annual basis and is willing to give away some free things in order to convince you to do it. Specifically, users who upgrade to the 2Tb Google One plan — paid annually, not monthly — will receive a code for a free 2nd-gen Nest Hub after making the switch.
The fine print of the deal, found by 9to5Google, says that users who upgrade will receive an email about a week after they upgrade. That means you should get your 2nd-gen Nest Hub just in time for the Holidays, which is convenient since it's the best darned digital photo frame you'll find anywhere.
It's also an amazing way to track your sleep without having to wear any confounded gadgets on your wrist thanks to the built-in Soli radar sensor on the front.
That annual 2Tb plan costs $100 per year, which is a 17% savings overpaying for the same plan on a monthly basis. Given that you're not likely to let your cloud storage lapse, it makes more sense to pay for it on an annual basis, anyway.
This offer is available until December 10 in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Germany according to the fine print on the deal. If this sounds like a winner, go ahead and jump into the Google One app and select that upgraded plan.

5 Reasons to Move to a New City
Moving to a new city where you don’t know anybody or anything can be one of the scariest experiences for anybody. It’s very easy to get cold feet when leaving everything they know and love for the complete unknown. However there is no reason to let fear stop you from making a move deep down you know would be better for you in the long run. While moving to somewhere new can be absolutely terrifying, it is also one of the most exciting thing somebody can do. Here are some of the great things about movingto a new city where you don’t know a soul.
- You Make New Friends
The biggest reason most people are hesitant to leave for a new city is the fact that they will miss their friends. First off, if they’re real friends you will keep in contact with them. Living in a different city or state doesn’t mean you can’t keep these great friendships. With that said, moving to a new city means you get a chance to create new, unique friendships with people of completely different backgrounds than you are used to.
- You Further Develop Social Skills
Making friends after moving isn’t like making friends when in school. You’re typically friends with people you either have classes with or participate in the same activities as. Even in college this holds somewhat true, people typically gravitate towards people they either live with or share similar classes with. This is a crutch that some more socially awkward people tend to lean on growing up. When you’re dropped in a city where you’re alone, it’s time to overcome that. The only way you make the new friends referenced above, you have to learn how to break out of your shell and socialize with strangers.
- You Realize You Only Need To Rely On Yourself
When moving to a new city, you essentially have to start all over. A new apartment, a new job, learning the lay of the land, etc. And you have do all of this by yourself. No help from your friends, your parents, nobody. With nobody in the area to bail you out, you will be forced to be independent and make it work by yourself. You might struggle a little bit along with way, however conquering a new city will make you realize that you can do anything if you work hard and put your mind to it.
- You Learn Different Ways to Make Fun
Once you live in a place around the same people for a long enough time, you might develop a pattern. You celebrate Taco Tuesday at the same Mexican restaurant, you go to the same bars on weekends, you take the same trips during Summer. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing if this is how you like to have fun. However there is a big world and a vast amount of ways to have a good time. Once you get engrained in a new area, you learn how people around you have fun. It might be a unique nightclub or a weekly concert. Whatever it may be, you will have fun in ways you aren’t used to.
- You Grow Even More as a Person
Maybe the best thing about moving to a new city by yourself is that you get a chance to learn more about yourself as a human being. Living by yourself, you have the chance to try things that you might not have when you were living in comfort around your friends. Maybe you learn that you love to try new foods so you decide to take a cooking class. Maybe you visit a museum and discover that you love art. Maybe you decide to learn a new language and you discover how much you want to learn about different cultures all around the world. Regardless, you can argue that you don’t entirely know yourself until you have a chance to venture out on your own. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
There is no gundam series called gundam seed 00. However, there is Gundam Seed, and Gundam 00.
IT IS THE shuffle alliance

"As part of the 30th Anniversary of the Gundam series, the company officially announced a project on March 11, 2009 called Real-G planning to build a 1/1 real size scale Gundam in Japan, it was completed on the June 9, 2009. It was dismantled in early September 2009." ~ Wikipedia
Burning gundam in hyper mode and shining gundam in hyper mode or God gundam in hyper mode if not in English version. Same thing
In 1979, Yoshiyuki Tomino created Mobile Suit Gundam, a futuristic-like TV series. The first time it aired, it did not do well. Then, in some Star Trek-like coincidence, the popularity of it soared after the end of the original run. A huge metaseries was born from that TV show.
gundam seed was the previous series.Also gundam seed astray.
Yes, there have been several Gundam series released after Gundam 00. Some notable ones include Gundam Build Fighters, Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans, Gundam Thunderbolt, and Gundam Narrative. However, the release of new Gundam series is ongoing, so there may be more to come in the future. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Washington(ANN)-The United States has confirmed a daily record of nearly 40,000 new coronavirus cases, according to figures from Johns Hopkins University (JHU).
Johns Hopkins public database reported America’s largest single-day increase in new COVID-19 cases on Thursday.
The previous one-day record occurred on April 24, when about 36,000 were confirmed to have contracted the virus.
The highest numbers were in Florida, Texas and California states. The surge in infections has prompted the three states to halt their reopening plans.
Other American states have also reported an increase in the number of new infections over the past week.
The US is the world’s hardest-hit country by the pandemic. It has so far confirmed over 2.4 million cases.
According to Johns Hopkins, 2.4 million Americans have contracted the virus, and more than 124,000 have died after contracting it.
US cases ‘may have topped 20 million’
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), however, has said the real number could be ten times higher than the reported figure.
According to the latest estimate by CDC officials, at least 20 million people in the US may already have been infected with COVID-19.
“Our best estimate right now is that for every case that was reported, there actually were 10 other infections,” CDC Director Dr Robert Redfield told reporters.
He added that this was because testing was restricted to people with symptoms and asymptomatic carriers were not tested.
“We probably recognized about 10% of the outbreak by the methods that we use to diagnosis between the March, April and May,” he said.
Dr. Redfield said that up to 8 percent of the American population had been exposed to the coronavirus and urged citizens to keep social distancing, wearing masks and washing hands.
“As we go into the fall, in the winter, these are going to be really, really important defense mechanisms,” he said.
Sixteen NBA players test positive for coronavirus
Meanwhile, the NBA and the National Basketball Players Association said that 16 players tested positive for coronavirus.
The 16 players were part of a pool of 302 tested. Mandatory tests done in preparation for the restart of the season will continue for all 22 teams that will be participating in the restart at the Disney campus near Orlando, Florida, next month.
According to the NBA and the National Basketball Players Association, “any player who tested positive will remain in self-isolation until he satisfies public health protocols for discontinuing isolation and has been cleared by a physician.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Course: Viennese Artists, 3 weeks
Tue, May 04
Fin-de-siecle Vienna was a crucible of innovation and experiment. Meet some of its artists and events that shaped their art, in this 3 part series by Andrew Spira. Each individual lecture can be enjoyed alone or as part of this series. More information below.
Time & Location
May 04, 2021, 5:00 PM GMT+1 – May 18, 2021, 6:00 PM GMT+1
About the Event
When people think of psychology and Vienna, they usually think of Sigmund Freud. But psychological research had taken place in Vienna for two centuries before Freud. He was the beneficiary of a long tradition which included the extraordinary Franz Xaver Messerschmidt and Franz Mesmer, who gave his name to ‘mesmerism’. The first talk in this series will address the psychological life of Vienna, leading up to Freud, and the many fascinating traces it left in the arts. These will include the beguiling reveries of Gustav Klimt.
Fin-de-siecle Vienna was a crucible of innovation and experiment. Klimt and Mahler were its passionate and romantic giants. Elsewhere in Europe, avant-garde art was often abstract but, in Vienna, it was the boundaries of sexual propriety that were breached. Egon Schiele was the main offender.
Klimt and Schiele both died in 1918, but the tradition of Viennese modernism underwent its own uneasy development well into the 20th century, especially in the hands of Oscar Kokoschka. This talk will address the fortunes of Kokoschka who lived until 1980, and the pioneering composer Arnold Schoenberg, who also painted.
NO recording will be made of this event.
4/5/21 Gustav Klimt
11/5/21 Egon Schiele
18/5/21 Oscar Kokoschka

DELTA PDP CALLS CHIEF FELIX ANIRAH TO ORDER; ADVISES HIM TO EXHIBIT DISCIPLINE OR FACE DISCIPLINARY ACTION
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State, has expressed deep displeasure and serious concern over the attitude of the member representing Sapele Constituency in the Delta State House of Assembly, Chief (Hon.) Felix Anirah, especially his use of provocative language and inciting vituperations in recent times, on party matters.
The Delta PDP wishes to call Chief Anirah to order and inform him that his actions and attacks in relation to the internal affairs of the party, have not only become hostile and confrontational but are now totally unacceptable, as the PDP views them to be in complete disregard of the established structures and laid down appropriate channels for aggrieved and respectable members of the party to follow, in seeking clarification or redress on issues.
The party notes with utter dismay, that Chief Anirah has not followed the party rules but has instead, set out on a most ignoble journey of disparaging party members with whom he has personal grievance(s) on social media and other media channels. This is indecorous and he is urged to either restrain himself forthwith from any further untoward act or inflammatory comments or face disciplinary action.
As a party man, a political figure and public officer, Chief Anirah is very much aware that the Constitution of the party is the ultimate document which defines, directs and resolves all party matters and as such, should know better by subscribing and submiting himself to tenets of our constitution and comporting himself with greater decency and decorum in his public activities.
The party hereby states categorically that, in line with our constitution, Chief Anirah and indeed any other recognized members of the party, has the right to aspire, desire and contest for any position or office in the party executive at any level, but the Constitution also clearly stipulates the processes through which the election of officers in the party shall be conducted.
The Constitution also states unequivocally that disciplinary measures will be applied when party members, by their actions or otherwise, infringe on the rights, intimidate or disparage other interested aspirants or contestants from aspiring to the same positions and the party will not hesitate to invoke disciplinary action on any member who violates the Constitution either by verbal subterfuge, unnecessary intimidation or irresponsible provocation.
Chief Anirah is further advised to understand that the PDP is a party of men and women who take great pride in exhibiting party discipline as a virtue and the least attitude that is expected from him, as a leader in the party and representative of his people, is to uphold party discipline and respect the supremacy of our party constitution, especially in matters that involve internal party affairs, otherwise the party will be compelled to refer his actions and comments to the disciplinary committee for appropriate interpretation as his diatribes amounts to gross assault to the sensibilities all well-meaning party leaders across the State.
We advise the member representing Sapele Constituency and indeed all other members of the party fanning embers of discord and discontent over internal party matters, to be properly guided by the Constitution and conduct themselves with greater restraint, especially on the social media space in the collective interest and well being of the party in the State.
A word, they say, is enough for the wise.
PDP! Power to the People.
Dr. Ifeanyi M. Osuoza,
State Publicity Secretary,
PDP, Delta State.

Summer is approaching and it’s time to start brainstorming about some summer vacation plans! This time, you’ll be planning with a new twist. This is because, now that you are in recovery, you’ll be vacationing sober this year. You may worry that a sober vacation will be dull and boring, but with some savvy planning, your trip will be anything but.
What is a sober vacation?
At first glance, it might appear that the term “sober vacation” is a contradictory statement. Isn’t being on vacation all about letting loose and partying? It doesn’t have to be. In fact, a sober vacation may surpass your expectations if you are just willing to do some planning.
A sober vacation is exactly that — it entails traveling to a destination, near or far, where you will enjoy yourself without consuming substances
Keep in mind that there are different ways to go about planning your sober vacation:
- You can handle it yourself. You book a flight, reserve a hotel room and plan activities.
- You can use a sober travel agency to help guide your decisions and avoid pitfalls.
- You can book a guided tour through a sober travel company.
- You can book a cruise on a sober cruise line.
How to make the most of your sober vacation
When someone is committed to sobriety, envisioning a vacation without substances is not hard. It all starts with your personal level of commitment and a positive mindset.
To get the most out of your sober vacation, consider these tips:
- Focus on learning: Select a destination that is new to you or steeped in a rich history. Approach the trip with a passion to learn all about the cultures, cuisines and local customs, and make a list of intriguing sites to explore.
- Plan an active trip: Plan your trip around activities like cycling, scuba diving, white water rafting or hiking. Consider the interesting sober outdoor adventure trips offered by Sober Outside.
- Reimagine nightlife: It is common to equate vacation nightlife with consuming alcohol at bars or music venues. Now that you are in recovery, you should reimagine what an interesting nightlife looks like. Consider a moonlight boat cruise, an outdoor live theater event, a fireworks show over the lake, or a campfire on the beach.
How to avoid pitfalls on your sober vacation
While in the midst of reshaping your lifestyle around sobriety, it’s always wise to remind yourself that new habits take time to form. If you are new in recovery and want to protect your sobriety, approach your sober vacation strategically. Add some extra layers of protection by keeping these tips in mind:
- Choose your travel mates carefully: It is best to travel with someone who is also in recovery and is just as committed as you are. Not only are you able to hold each other accountable, but you will also be on the same page when deciding on activities and outings.
- Have the alcohol removed from your room: Call the hotel ahead of time and request that the mini-bar in your room be emptied prior to your arrival.
- Learn where you can access sobriety support: Check in advance to locate the Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in the area, listen to sober podcasts during your downtime to stay motivated and focused. Touch base with your sober network back home.
Taking a sober vacation can be an amazing, uplifting experience in recovery. Travel is definitely invigorating and inspiring and good for the soul. So, keep these handy tips in mind and go make the most of your sober vacation. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
God GEB: God of the Earth in Ancient Egyptian Mythology
In the mysterious world of ancient mythology, every culture has its pantheon of gods and goddesses, each responsible for a different aspect of life, the universe, and everything in it. In ancient Egyptian mythology, Geb held sway over the Earth.
The Origins of Geb
Also known as Seb or Keb, he was a preeminent deity in the Heliopolitan Ennead, a group of nine gods worshiped primarily in Heliopolis. His parents were the sky goddess Nut and the Earth god Shu, while his siblings were Osiris, Isis, Seth, and Nephthys. He was often depicted as a man lying on the ground with his body covered in greenery or a man with a goose atop his head, for "Geb" also means "goose" in ancient Egyptian.
As the god of the Earth, it symbolized Egypt's fertile lands, the force that sustained agriculture and, thus, life itself. His association with greenery and the Earth's rich soil was a testament to his role as a life-giver.
Geb: The Earthly Judge
Geb was not merely a passive representation of the earth. He was also seen as an active participant in the world's affairs, particularly in matters of justice. Ancient Egyptians believed his laughter created earthquakes, demonstrating his direct influence over natural phenomena.
Geb was an impartial judge in many stories, settling disputes among gods and humans. One of the most famous of these tales involves a conflict between Horus and Seth over the throne of Egypt. Geb's verdict in favor of Horus set a precedent for the divine right of pharaohs, with every pharaoh viewed as the living incarnation of Horus.
The Symbolism of Geb
His imagery is full of symbolism that goes beyond his earthly domain. He is often depicted in a reclining position, with his wife, Nut, the sky goddess, arched above him. Their father, Shu, is seen standing between them, keeping them apart. This imagery represents the ancient Egyptians' understanding of the world, where the sky (Nut) is held above the earth (Geb) by the air (Shu).
The figure of Geb was also a symbol of the pharaoh's power. As the god of the earth and a divine judge, his authority was invoked to legitimize the pharaoh's rule. The pharaoh was seen as Geb's earthly representative, tasked with maintaining Ma'at, the universe's divine order.
Geb in Modern Culture
Though his worship has faded, his influence can still be seen in modern culture. His name lives on in popular culture, particularly fantasy literature and games, where his characteristics often inspire characters or settings. His story fascinates historians, mythologists, and those interested in ancient cultures.
As the god of the earth, it embodies the ancient Egyptians' deep respect for the natural world, their understanding of the cosmos, and their belief in justice and order. His tale is an integral part of the rich tapestry of ancient Egyptian mythology, shedding light on the belief system and values of one of history's most fascinating civilizations. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Atlanta Braves pitcher Peter Moylan has been busy multi-tasking this week as he warms up his arm for Spring training while participating in the Braves Caravan, a 3,000-mile bus tour of the Southeast scheduled to get fans pumped about the 2010 season.
“The arm feels great,” the Australian native told Intel just after an early AM throwing session at Turner Field. “I just wanted to make sure it was all still there.”
Last month, Moylan signed a fresh one-year contract with the Braves for $1.15 million, thus avoiding arbitration.
“It was great to get all that out of the way early so I could just concentrate of Spring training,” he explains.
Moylan came back strong after the 2009 All-Star break to rack up a record 87 appearances after being sidelined in 2008 following elbow surgery.
“To be honest, I was worried before the All-Star Break,” Moylan discloses. “I had no command and no release point. And then, after the break, everything just clicked into place. A just made a few mechanical tweaks that ended up helping. In pitching, it’s all about confidence. It was great to get that back.”
Moylan was even cool with climbing aboard a bus to travel to Charlotte this week to greet fans. The 40 stops scheduled through Feb 13 will also serve as a fund-raiser for Haiti earthquake victims with autographed items up for bid at www.braves.com/haitirelief.
“It’s a nice opportunity to do our part for the people in Haiti, catch up with the fellows and swap stories with fans and hear from them about what they’re looking for this season,” says Moylan.
One distinctive aspect to the 2010 Braves season that Moylan can’t yet wrap his brain around?
It will serve as veteran Braves manager Bobby Cox‘s swan song.
“I’m sorry but I can’t believe it’s actually going to happen,” Moylan says. “And I won’t believe it until Spring training next year and he’s not there. Bobby is so much a part of this team, I just can’t picture it without him.”
On Friday, the Braves Caravan stops in College Park and Stockbridge, rolls into Birmingham and Hoover, Alabama Saturday and returns to Atlanta, Decatur and Suwanee on Monday.

Spring market is off to a busy start as homebuyers and sellers regain confidence following a volatile 2022. But across all price points, standing inventory remains a challenge.
"It's not that there aren't homes for sale. It's that homes are selling very quickly, in many cases before they even hit the market," said Thad Wong, co-CEO of @properties Christie's International Real Estate.
It's that last point that often confounds homebuyers. The reality is listings can show up in different "markets" – some highly visible, others less so. Understanding the inner workings of these various markets will give buyers and sellers the best chance for success in the current environment.
Pocket listings are homes that are for sale but not yet listed in the MLS. In this case, the listing agent will directly market the property to a targeted audience of agents and potential buyers. Sellers often go this route because they want to test the market and/or they're still making selling preparations. Selling or buying a "pocket" often comes down to relationships, and agents with strong relationships and networks give their clients an edge.
The Private Listing Network or PLN is another "market within the market." Private listings are listed in the MLS but aren't syndicated to public websites like Zillow and Realtor.com. Therefore, they're only visible to agents (although certain technologies can display private listings to buyers who are working with an agent). Private listings also don't accumulate market time, so again, it's a way for agents and sellers to test the market before going all in.
Once a home is actively listed in the MLS and not designated "Private," it becomes visible to all agents and – via syndicated feeds – to the public. Public listings receive the highest level of exposure.
@properties Christie's International Real Estate leverages technology to facilitate what is actually a very efficient market across this full landscape. Tools like our proprietary @agent app and Zenlist, which allows buyers to search both public and private listings, put more power and information into our clients' hands.
Whether you're buying or selling, reach out to learn how technology, relationships and a sound strategy can give you an advantage in today's competitive marketplace. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

From USA Today Best-selling Author, Zee Irwin, listen to three stories of billionaires from Boston, each possessively loyal, and fighting to protect the women they love. All three stories from the Fated Loves series in one audiobook.
“Two thumbs up for building chemistry!”
“You just want to keep reading so see how these couples get together!”
“I couldn't help rooting for them to the very last page.”
Daniel has no faith in love. The high-flying billionaire divorce attorney knows from both personal and professional experience that almost all perfect affairs end in expensive disasters. But the way Maddie, the attractive grad student at the pub, sees past his wealth and acknowledges his true self has him totally hooked.
When Bronson runs into Cassidy at work, he knows this is his opportunity to shut the door on their past. Everything heads in that direction, but he can't get her out of his mind. His body craves a future together. If only meddling family and coworkers would stay out of his way over the holidays.
Women take one look at Jace, then look away. The detective's beastly scars could intimidate the most hardened criminals, hardening his heart as well. But when Lily enters the picture, all he wants is for her to see how soft she makes him feel inside.
One thing is certain, with these three Fated Loves couples, there are plenty of steamy nights ahead.
Stay on the edge of your seat through twists of fate and mysterious pasts, as paths converge and wind toward happy ever afters.
Each book can be read as a standalone. But the series is interconnected and the characters appear throughout. If you like strong characters, bits of humor, steamy open doors, and happily ever afters that satisfy, then you’ll adore Zee Irwin’s gorgeous tales.

Platypus milk may help us fight antibiotic resistance, scientists say
AUSTRALIAN SCIENTISTS have found an unlikely candidate in the fight against global antibiotic resistance; the Australian platypus.
The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) has long been a subject of interest to scientists, due to its unusual appearance and venomous nature.
CSIRO scientist Dr Janet Newman explains the interest behind these elusive animals.
“Platypus are such weird animals that it would make sense for them to have weird biochemistry,” Dr Newman said, “The platypus belongs to the monotreme family, a small group of mammals that lay eggs and produce milk to feed their young.”
See more: rare photos of a juvenile platypus
In 2010, scientists discovered unique antibacterial properties in platypus milk, which hinted at the potential for the milk to be used to fight superbugs.
Now, a team of researchers at CSIRO partnered with Deakin University have found why platypus milk is so potent, bringing us one step closer to combatting the human body’s growing antibiotic resistance.
“By taking a closer look at their milk we’ve characterised a new protein that has unique antibacterial properties with the potential to save lives,” said Dr Newman
While platypuses may produce milk, they don’t have the teats to nurse with. Instead, they release milk through their skin onto their bellies for their young to suckle at, exposing their milk to the environment and leaving their offspring at the mercy of bacteria.
Replicating the protein in a laboratory setting, scientists found a unique, never-before-seen 3D fold.
See more: Six of the best places to see a platypus
Scientists have unofficially named this new protein the ‘Shirley Temple’, a nod to the protein’s resemblance to the ringlet hair of the former child actor.
Dr Newman said that the new study will have an impact of medical research more broadly.
“Although we’ve identified this highly unusual protein as only existing in monotremes, this discovery increases our knowledge of protein structures in general, and will go on to inform other drug discovery work.”
Adding to the platypus’ ever growing list of medical uses – their venom is currently being researched for potential use in diabetes treatment – this breakthrough highlights the need to further protect and study these unusual creatures. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Auto Diagnostic FAQs
How do vehicle diagnostic systems work?
OBD stands for On-Board Diagnostics and is a sophisticated computer that collects vital information from a network of sensors, monitoring engine performance, emissions, and other key functions. It not only regulates various car systems but also acts as a diagnostic tool, alerting you to potential problems before they become major issues.
How long does a car diagnostic last?
While a basic diagnostic test typically wraps up in 1-1.5 hours, complex issues demanding further examination and component access/testing can extend the process to 2-3 hours. The length ultimately depends on the severity of the problem and the potential presence of multiple underlying culprits.
What is included in a car diagnostic test?
Diagnostic tests are like X-rays for your vehicle, utilizing specialized equipment to scan its complex systems and components like the engine, transmission, and throttle. From minor oil tank issues to intricate electrical glitches, these tests diagnose a wide range of potential problems. However, interpreting the data they generate requires trained professionals, making dealer shops and skilled mechanics your best bet for accurate diagnoses.

It is known that the Greek astronomer and mathematician Ptolemy (90-168 years BC) knew of the existence of lunar mountains. According to him the Lunar mountains – it's covered with snow African Uplands, located at near the equator where there are two lakes, which are the source of the Nile. One of the greatest travelers Henry Stanley in his book 'In the wilds of Africa' (1890) tries to prove that the lunar mountains Ptolemy – a mountainous Ruwenzori country, as it lies almost under the equator, and with its snowy peaks flow down the rivers that feed the lakes Albert and Victoria, and which give rise to the great River Nile. However, some modern geographers argue that in times of Ptolemy could not have known of these lakes is that the scientists are only able to use the data obtained by them from Egypt only on the northernmost tributary of the Nile – the River Atbara – and so took Lake Tana, which implies the Atbara, for original source of the Nile. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Look Out, San Diego! The Buccs Are Coming! The Buccs Are Coming!
By Emory Heisler
Arizona Yacht Club
ARRRRRR! Well, they aren't the British, that's for sure!
June 21-26, the Buccaneer 18 Fleet of " pirates" and their North American Championships (BNAC)
will be coming to Mission Bay and will be hosted by Mission Bay Yacht Club.
MBYC, San Diego, and the "Left Coast" will be hosting BNAC for the first time in Buccaneer
18 Class' 40–year history. If you haven't seen a Bucc 18 in San Diego, it's not too much of
a surprise. The Buccaneer 18 has been mostly a "Right Half" of the country boat as a result
of its Chrysler "roots."
But beginning back early this decade, the Buccaneers began making their way West
in earnest via the Denver Sailing Association and the Arizona Yacht Club.
Five, then 10, then 15 Bucc 18s started showing up at the Arizona Birthday Regatta
and Leukemia Cup. Now there are over 20 Buccaneer 18s in Arizona and over 40 between
Denver and the Pacific Ocean, including three hearty pirates right there in San Diego.
From three Buccs to over 40 in less than 10 years? That is some fleet building!
What' s it like sailing a Buccaneer 18 on Mission Bay? "I had no idea how fast
those boats were to weather!" exclaimed the MBYC PRO after their first visit
to Mission Bay One Design Weekend in 2005.
And, when 2007 BNAC Champion Jim Daus raced in the 2008 MBOD Weekend,
he declared it to be, "The best Bucc racing venue ever!"
That' s high praise indeed considering the number of places Daus has sailed his Bucc.
You can see Jim Daus, his Denver Sailing Association nemesis Dave Spira
(three- time BNAC Champion) crossing swords on Mission Bay this June with
their pirate brothers and sisters.

WBG and Naum Gabo
A major exhibition of Naum Gabo is being hosted by Tate St Ives. Gabo, one of the pioneers of constructivism, lived in St Ives between outset of World War II in 1939 and November 1946 when he and his family emigrated to the USA. As friends of Ben Nicholson and Barbara Hepworth, he and his wife Miriam followed them from London to Cornwall to escape the war, first staying with Adrian Stokes and Margaret Mellis at Little Parc Owles in Carbis Bay, before finding their own bungalow Faerystones nearby.
Many of the artists working in St Ives around this time came to know Gabo, including Wilhelmina Barns-Graham who was introduced to him through her Edinburgh College of Art friend Mellis. She liked Gabo very much, as did all who met him.
While Gabo was in St Ives, there is no evidence of his theories or vision in Barns-Graham’s work of this period. Her paintings indicate nothing of Gabo’s notions of rhythm, movement, time and structural force that inspired the transparency of his sculptures, or his paintings. However, her visit to the Grindelwald Glacier, Switzerland in 1949 changed all that. This occasion was a transformative experience. Here was the reality of Gabo’s explorations of form in space as found in the real world.
Barns-Graham was mesmerised by the glaciers. The resulting paintings and drawings were widely acclaimed, putting Barns-Graham on the artworld map. These works are still regarded as the first highlight of her artistic career. There is no doubt that Gabo opened her eyes to the possibilities of constructivism but she was not an artist whose natural proclivity led her down that theoretical road. Her work was tied to the world she observed around her, not to a purely intellectual abstraction. Even when comparing her resulting paintings to those of Gabo, though visual similarities are evident, they are not of the same ilk. Nonetheless, without Gabo it is highly unlikely that she would have made the connection while up on the glacier.

Unveiling Wall Street's Skepticism: The Case for Life Insurance and Fixed Index Annuities
Updated: Oct 27, 2023
Introduction: Wall Street, the epicenter of global financial markets, has long been associated with high-risk, high-reward investments. However, a closer look reveals an interesting paradox: Wall Street tends to view life insurance, indexed universal life (IUL) policies, and fixed index annuities (FIAs) with skepticism. In this article, we delve into the reasons behind this skepticism and unveil the advantages that these products hold for middle-class and upper-class Americans. Contrary to Wall Street's perspective, life insurance and fixed index annuity products offer unique financial benefits and security. We will explore why these alternatives can serve as advantageous vehicles for safeguarding investments, ultimately prompting readers to consider reaching out to experts like Barry Corp. to navigate their financial future.
Wall Street's Skepticism:
Complexity and Lack of Transparency: Wall Street thrives on sophisticated financial products and trading strategies. Life insurance, IUL policies, and FIAs, on the other hand, are often seen as complex and difficult to understand due to their intricate features, fees, and potential limitations. This lack of transparency can breed skepticism among investors who are accustomed to more straightforward investment options.
Lower Profit Margins: Traditional Wall Street products often generate substantial fees and commissions for financial institutions and advisors. In contrast, life insurance and fixed index annuity products tend to offer lower profit margins due to their focus on providing long-term security and guaranteed benefits. This misalignment of incentives can lead to Wall Street's preference for products that generate higher immediate revenues.
Risk Perception: Wall Street is synonymous with risk-taking and the pursuit of aggressive returns. Life insurance and fixed index annuities prioritize stability, guarantees, and risk mitigation. This misalignment of risk perception can contribute to Wall Street's skepticism towards these products, as they diverge from the high-risk, high-reward approach often associated with the financial industry.
Advantages of Life Insurance and Fixed Index Annuities:
Guaranteed Protection: Life insurance and fixed index annuities offer a level of protection that traditional Wall Street products cannot match. Life insurance policies provide a death benefit to beneficiaries, ensuring financial security for loved ones in case of the policyholder's untimely demise. Fixed index annuities offer principal protection and guaranteed income streams, providing retirees with a dependable source of funds regardless of market fluctuations.
Tax Benefits: Both life insurance and fixed index annuities offer tax advantages. The cash value growth in life insurance policies accumulates on a tax-deferred basis, while withdrawals from FIAs can be structured to minimize tax liabilities. These tax benefits can significantly enhance the long-term returns of these products.
Market Participation with Safety: FIAs and IUL policies allow investors to participate in market gains while offering a safety net against market downturns. This combination of potential growth and downside protection makes these products appealing to risk-averse investors seeking to balance their portfolios.
Conclusion:In a financial landscape dominated by Wall Street's fast-paced trading and high-risk endeavors, life insurance and fixed index annuity products stand as formidable alternatives. While Wall Street's skepticism is understandable given its distinct profit motives and risk tolerance, middle-class and upper-class Americans can find solace in the security, guarantees, and tax advantages that these products offer. It's time to reconsider the conventional wisdom and explore avenues that prioritize financial stability and long-term prosperity.
To make informed decisions about your financial future, it's essential to consult experts who understand the nuances of these alternative investment vehicles. Barry Corp. Wealth is ready to provide the guidance and expertise you need to safeguard your investments and secure your financial well-being.

Basset hound temperament differs slightly between different dogs, but there are many common Basset behavior traits that are shared within the breed.
Bassets are pack hounds and will see their owners as members of their pack and will attempt to work their way to become the leader to the best of their abilities. Making note of these tendencies will allow for you to understand basset hound temperament.
Although originally bred for the hunt, Basset Hounds are social, friendly dogs that are renown for being gentle and tolerant with children and other pets, making them an ideal choice for a loyal family pet. Basset Hounds thrive in a family environment and appreciate having people around to keep them company. Basset Hounds can be stubborn at times and can take more training and patience at times. This again relates back to their pack hound tendencies and the desire to become the leader of the pack. A calm, confident and authoritative approach is needed with a Basset to remain in full control. Owners must make sure that they are consistent with the rules of the house in order to positively enforce the rules of the house. Bassets can also be mischievous and may attempt to get their own way if left to their own devices. A Basset can appear to be sound asleep until they detect the scent of food in the air and will most likely spring up and run straight to the kitchen.
Basset Hound Activity levels
Basset Hounds are often commonly misconceived as being lazy and slow moving animals – maybe due to their short legs and droopy expressions. In actuality, Basset Hounds are highly energetic and playful and require a moderate amount of exercise in order to stay healthy and in shape. Bassets will thrive in a home environment where they ideally have an area to run around and play in. Regular walks are a good idea to keep Bassets happy and in shape Basset Hounds are very enthusiastic in greeting owners, especially after not seeing them for a while and will most likely run to greet you with a great level of excitement. While Bassets have a high level of energy, they will likely take regular naps throughout the day and enjoy relaxing in a warm place in the sun.
While Bassets thrive around humans and other animals, it is also important to let him/her get used to healthy lengths of alone time. If your dog is never alone, occasions where you do end up spending time away will be a lot harder for the Basset to process. This can lead to anxiety and other problems. You can train your Basset Hound to get used to being alone by giving him/her a toy to play with while your dog is in it’s usual sleeping area and then leaving the room. Stay out of sight and try not to succumb to any whining – simply wait until your Basset settles down. When they are playing quietly, return to the room, praise him and reward your dog with a treat. This is best done at a young age as part of socialisation and reinforcing positive behavior in this way is a very important part of preparing your puppy for being around other dogs and people.
A rewarding companion
With socialisation and a consistent reward system that is enforced and understood by the whole family, your Basset will thrive in the home environment! People will often say that Basset Hounds are quite hard to train, but with a little insight into the pack dog mentality, you will reap the rewards of having a loyal, happy and healthy Basset again and again. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Forth Crossing Bridge Constructors (FCBC) has advised of an amended programme for essential underdeck maintenance at the south end of the Queensferry Crossing, with further time being taken to safely plan the works ahead of implementation.
The works, which are being undertaken on behalf of Transport Scotland, will now require traffic management to be installed on the M90 northbound carriageway on the night of Sunday 1 December. (8pm to 6am). The traffic management will consist of a temporary realignment of the running lanes using traffic cones, necessitating closure of a short length of the hard shoulder.
Two lanes will be maintained at all times and the traffic management will be removed on 17 December subject to weather not delaying the works.
A 50mph temporary speed limit will be applied to the northbound carriageway and a free vehicle recovery service will be provided to attend to any breakdowns within the roadworks area.
Northbound abnormal loads will be required to divert via Clackmannanshire Bridge whilst traffic management is in place.
The southbound carriageway is not affected by the works.
Motorists using the Queensferry Crossing are encouraged to plan ahead during the works by checking the Traffic Scotland website www.traffic.gov.scot for up-to-date travel information.
BEAR Scotland is supporting this project as part of its responsibility for the South East Trunk Road Network on behalf of Transport Scotland. FCBC and its subcontracted supply chain will be undertaking the work on site. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
As I stated in a previous post, I have been exceptionally busy with school work this term. However, I also have a tendency to exaggerate when I’m stressed.
My coop had an in-house game night a couple weeks ago on a Friday night. I chose to skip it because I had a lot of work hanging over my head. So, I went to the library.
Nothing got done. In fact, I read comics the whole time I was there. Suffice it to say, I gave up on doing work that night and returned home to participate in the remainder of the game night.
That’s where I got the idea for this comic. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Corvette vs. Camaro: A Comparison
If you're looking for an American sports car, the Corvette and the Camaro have surely crossed your mind. These two vehicles have staked their claim as the iconic aggressors of their respective brands. Few other American cars can match them on the track and the predicament of Corvette vs. Camaro can be troublesome. If you're trying to make a decision between the two, we'll help you through the process.
Part 1: Specs
First, let's take a look at the specs of the two vehicles. The Corvette's base trim is much more performance-oriented and expensive than the Camaro's base trim. The two cars don't really compare at anything below the Camaro's 1SS trim, sometimes called the SS. That particular trim shares a lot of specs with the Corvette Stingray (base).
2017 Chevy Corvette Stingray | 2017 Chevy Camaro 1SS | |
MSRP: | $55,450 | $42,905 |
Horsepower: | 455 | 455 |
Engine: | 6.2L V8 | 6.2L V8 |
Curb Weight: | 3,298 lb (convertible 3,362 lb) | 3,685 lb |
Tire Size: | P245/40R18 front, P285/35R19 rear | P245/40R20 front, P275/35R20 rear |
Tank size: | 18.5 gal | 19 gal |
MPG: | 17 city / 29 highway | 17 city / 27 highway |
As you can see, the Corvette has a slight edge in terms of performance because of its weight. It does have a little more pickup, which leaves one simple question. Will you pay $13,000 to be a tad faster?
There are notable differences in terms of the intangible qualities of the 1SS and the Stingray. One is the brands involved. The Corvette is a Chevrolet vehicle; although, it really stands alone as it's own brand. The average driver may not know the manufacturer of the Corvette. The Camaro, on the other hand, is branded as a Chevrolet vehicle.
Another big difference is the interior look and feel of the vehicles. This is something that really stands out in the Corvette vs. Camaro debate. Whereas the Stingray has a luxury feel, the Camaro definitely has a more raw muscle car personality to it. That's not to say it's worse, it's just not as luxurious.
This difference is strikingly apparent in the instrumentation. The Corvette has a large, bright screen that displays a number of readings in an aesthetically pleasing way. The Camaro's instrument panel looks much like an economy car's panel, black and plastic, with a smaller digital screen in the center. Again, that's not to say it's worse. It just doesn't look as pretty, in our opinion.
The 1SS has a lower price partially due to not having some of the Stingray's features on a standard basis. Features like head-up display, performance data recorder and any more than 6 speeds in the transmission have to be added on with a package. There are also a few things you can't have at all with the Camaro, such as a reconfigurable instrument cluster and a 50/50 weight distribution. Although, the Camaro is very close at 52/48.
Part 3: Economics
The obvious winner in this category is the Camaro. It's cheaper to buy, about the same to maintain and fuel, and probably cheaper to insure in most cases. Like we said before, the Corvette is branded as a luxury sports car. Its MSRP reflects that. That may be something that's OK to spend extra money on for some of you. If it's not, the Camaro might be the right choice.

As luxurious and pampering as it sounds, this facial moisturizer is enriched with nourishing hanbang (traditional Korean herbal medicine) ingredients like ginseng and rice water to moisturize, brighten and tighten skin. Ginseng has anti-inflammatory properties that calm skin and is well-loved for its ability to help reduce signs of aging. The brightening and smoothing effects of rice water aid in fading dark spots over time.
The ultra-gentle formula is great for sensitive skin and helps strengthen the moisture barrier so skin stays hydrated longer. The unique, slightly tacky texture absorbs quickly and leaves skin with a dewy, bouncy finish. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Borrowing key performance features from high-end road bikes, it pairs speed with the kind of rugged durability needed to tackle tough gravel trails. Whether you’re eyeing personal bests or taking on some of the toughest gravel races, the Checkmate SLR offers a winning mix of speed, versatility, and race-ready design that could help you do just that.
This results in a bike that’s about half a kilo lighter than the Checkpoint SLR, allowing for effortless climbs on hilly courses and easier carrying over rough terrain.
Speed Meets Lightweight Durability
The Checkmate SLR’s frame is crafted from premium 800 Series OCLV Carbon, a material that balances ultra-lightweight design with exceptional strength. This results in a bike that’s about half a kilo lighter than the Checkpoint SLR, allowing for effortless climbs on hilly courses and easier carrying over rough terrain. The Full System Foil tube shapes, inspired by the aero design of the legendary Madone Gen 8, contribute to the Checkmate SLR’s race DNA, making it faster and more aerodynamic as a complete system.
Aerodynamic and Aggressive Geometry
The Checkmate SLR’s new Gravel Race geometry is optimised for an aggressive, aerodynamic position that allows riders to stay low and out of the wind while keeping control on technical gravel sections. A standout feature is the integrated, lightweight one-piece bar/stem, which narrows by 3 cm in the hoods compared to the drops, enabling riders to adopt a comfortable aero position when needed or drop low for greater control over rugged terrain.
IsoSpeed for All-Day Comfort
Built to excel on long, demanding routes, the Checkmate SLR incorporates IsoSpeed technology, which absorbs vibrations and bumps to minimise fatigue and keep riders comfortable over extended periods. Whether facing rocky paths or gravel-strewn stretches, this innovative technology makes the journey smoother, allowing riders to focus on speed without sacrificing comfort.
With room to fit gravel tyres up to 45 mm in width the Checkmate SLR is ready to tackle any surface, offering stability and traction even on the rough stuff. The bike also features strategically placed mounts for race-day essentials, giving you ample space for gear and hydration to stay prepared for any situation. Every detail on the Checkmate SLR is fine-tuned for performance, making it easy to stay equipped for long days in the saddle.

Renting tents to people and organizations for events, parties and gatherings of all sizes is a big part of what we do at Big AZ Promotions. We’re passionate about our business and as a result we’re extremely knowledgeable about the products we provide — including their history, which, in the case of tents, is fascinating.We rent a wide variety of tents to different people for all sorts of occasions and purposes, which mirrors the diversity found in the history of tents evolving from their most basic original form.It’s impossible to tell when, or where the “first” tent originated, but we do know that some type of similar portable structures have been used by our ancestors for thousands of years. There are even several references to tent-like structures in biblical literature. The first tents were used primarily as dwellings, which fit the nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle of early humans in many areas of the world. Most tents during this time were constructed out of animal hide. As human civilization evolved, so too did tents.As agriculture developed throughout the world, tents were used to shade weary farmers during their breaks from raising crops and livestock. Nomadic herders also used portable tents for shelter as they stewarded their animals to new grazing pastures. The next significant iteration of tent usage came from the militarization of different societies.Warriors and armies used tents for mobile shelter as they traveled to battle other peoples. The need for tents to be agile yet sturdy for military encampments helped solidify tents as an option for human shelter even outside of military functionality.Although for most of the beginning of the history of tent usage they were used as a utility, eventually tents became part of human leisure activities. Civilizations such as the Romans, Ottomans, Babylonians and others used large tents to house royalty at parties and festive gatherings. The evolution of tent usage can be directly tied to the advances in human culture. In other words, as people became less nomadic and had more leisure time tents became a sign of festivity, royalty and prosperity.As time passed, tents continued to be used in all the ways mentioned above (nomadic temporary living structures, military housing, shade for agricultural endeavors as well as leisure activities such as parties and festivities); however, these usages eventually started to evolve. Different tents became symbolic of certain activities, the most famous being the classic American red and white circus tent. Camouflage tents became synonymous with military activity. Even tents used for celebrations started to diversify; large white tents became a staple of outdoor weddings and themed canopies became a must-have for American football tailgaters. You will be hard pressed to find an outdoor event in the United States today that doesn’t feature some type of tent.Whatever type of tent you need, whether it’s for a wedding, special event, party or charity function, Big AZ Promotions has the right tent rental for you. Our selection of party rental options is as diverse as the history of tents themselves! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
I was on my flight to Osaka when I got the email from Telus StoryHive. I was approved for funding to film episode 1 of my documentary series on analogue photography! I quickly forwarded the email to my collaborator Ryan from Arcade Original, and then I went dark for 12 hours (no wifi on my economy ticket). Once I got to Osaka, I had to wait 3 long weeks before I could head back to Vancouver and start shooting with Ryan, although I had lots of time for pre-production. My goal was to feature Vancouver photographers, but also make a connection to my next favourite city for photography, Hong Kong. It's been 3 months since we began filming, and now the documentary is up on Telus StoryHive's YouTube channel. Please visit their website to view and vote for our project. You can vote once a day for the next 5 days. If we get enough votes, we are approved to finish our series with two more episodes. I have much more to share with you about this project, but please enjoy the documentary for now. Thanks for all your support:
Please enjoy some screen shots from my documentary. More behind-the-scenes footage coming up here, on my Instagram account, Twitter, and my YouTube channel.

* LA CABÄNE :
You should be 18+ to participate to this event and come by pair.
La Cabäne is located near station Rosa Parks (1minute).
The exact address will be communicated to you once you have booked. Please enter a valid email address when paying.
* LEVEL :
This course is suitable for riggers who know how to build the main harnesses (any style of TK, structured lacing, structured futomomo) and have a solid basis in floorwork.
It's not essential to have already tied in partial-suspension to attend this course, as we'll take the time to explain how to lock a suspension line and insist on a few safety principles. Of course, if you had already semi-suspended, you're welcome to join us too, and there'll be plenty of new things to try out !
Communication being a central element in shibari it is always preferable to come with a partner with whom you already practice in order to allow a good experience. It's important to have already discussed the framework of your practice (desires, intentions, limits, ways of managing consent).
* BAMBOOS & TORMENTS :
Bamboos can add a very playful element to a session. They can be used to create a variety of shapes and constraints to the body by creating rigidity in certain areas. The sensations for those attached can be quite gripping.
One advantage is that a suspension point is no longer necessary in certain situations, as the bamboo becomes an anchor.
We'll tie challenging bondages to understand how this type of tying works and how it can be a starting point for our imagination to torment our partner!
A minimum of 6-8 jute ropes (or hemp eventually), ideally 6mm in diameter and averaging 7-8 meters in lenght will be required.
Bänana, a ten-year bondage enthusiast, found her passion in shibari in 2017, drawn to its raw and authentic nature.
As she has always been fascinated by the expression of emotions, shibari, and more specifically semenawa has opened up a new path of exploration to her.
She began to follow Docvale’s teaching in November 2018, later partnering with him to co- manage Atelier Simonet in Paris until summer 2023.
Bänana considers that in order to tie well, we must understand each of our technical choices rather than learning the instructions by heart. She gives to her students a solid grounding so they can feel free while tying and put these technical abilities at the service of the relationship with their partners.
Being in ropes is also something to be apprehended. Not that you have to behave in any particular way. On the contrary, every tied-up person has to find the way that pleases him or her. It's also a long journey full of questions and emotions, and it seems important to Bänana that all this is taken into account during her courses.
Bänana's courses are so often highly interactive, with the idea that everyone should have a place to ask questions and express their experiences and feedback in order to grow together in this practice.
Bänana created La Cabäne during winter 2024.
* The partner of Bänana will be announced.
* Cancellation policy.
If you cancel more than 2 weeks in advance, we will refund your ticket. If you cancel later, we will try to resell your ticket. If this is not possible, we will not be able to reimburse you. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Senior Lecturer, Bass *
Steve Lawson teaches Bass at BIMM Music Institute Birmingham. His otherworldly cinematic soundscapes, improvised live with nothing but a bass guitar, a MIDI controller and a bewildering array of pedals have helped make him the most celebrated solo bassist in the UK. Through touring the world as a solo artist, sideman, and clinician/educator, and across a staggering 45 solo and collaborative releases in the last 17 years, Steve has built a large following for his particular brand of melodic ambient electronica.
He is also one of the most respected bass guitar lecturers in the UK, having given hundreds of masterclasses in colleges, universities, music events and conferences over the past 25 years. He is currently a PhD Candidate at Leeds Beckett University, exploring the audience experience of improvised music.
Recent collaborators (both live and in the studio) include Divinity Roxx, Beardyman, Reeves Gabrels, Jason Cooper (The Cure), Andy Gangadeen, Jon Thorne (Lamb), Rob Turner (GoGo Penguin), Jem Godfrey (Frost*), Tanya Donelly, Briana Corrigan, Mark Kelly (Marillion), Roy Dodds (Fairground Attraction) and more....
No less a luminary than Victor Wooten once commented 'Steve Lawson is a brilliant musician. I've known about him and listened to him for many years. He may not be one of the most famous bassists but he is definitely one of the most talented’.

Focused healing for targeting specific issues.
Our Grounding Bands and Patches are designed specifically for the treatment of localized issues. They have been developed to be used in conjunction with our other products and you can even run them from the same plug (one UK plug accepts two cables)
Grounding Bands and Patches are ideal to support specific distressed areas such as ankles, knees, the torso (lungs and digestive system), hips/knees after replacement operations and specific areas of pain or inflammation.
Also targeting issues such as arthritis, tennis elbow, sprained ankles or a particularly nasty cut, targeted healing is the ideal solution to get you back to your best quickly.
Users report that issues in specific areas benefit more quickly from local and direct input, using Grounding Bands and Patches. The exchange from the earth goes directly to the problem area, rather than being used up by other issues en-route to the focal point.
Bands are available for ankles, legs, arms, wrists, elbows, stomach/torso, forehead etc; and due to the stretchy material and adjustable strap they can be used almost anywhere they can be secured.
Patches can be placed anywhere and may be more convenient for more flexible areas such as knees and elbows. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
