Many Influitive textboxes use the Markdown syntax. This syntax allows you to format text, embed images, and even embed videos. You can embed a video on the sign-in page, for example. However, one drawback to this syntax is that the direct link to the video will be visible along with the video itself.
In this tip, we’ll show you how to embed a youtube video onto your sign-in page, with a custom thumbnail, which will hide the direct link to the video.
Start by uploading your own thumbnail image and video to the web. We recommend imgur for the image, and youtube for the video. Once you’ve gathered the links, head back to your Hub’s Admin page.
Click the Admin Settings dropdown, then click Settings.
Under the Advocate Program tab, click Sign-In.
Start by adding the Link syntax, and enter the URL to your video in the round brackets. Then, place the Image syntax inside the square brackets of the Link syntax. Add the URL to your image into the round brackets of this Image syntax.
You should end up with an opening square bracket, followed by an exclamation mark, 2 square brackets, the link to your image inside of round brackets, a closing square bracket, followed by the link to your video inside of round brackets.
Once you’re finished click Save. Click preview to check the changes out. Now you have a custom video and thumbnail on your sign-in page.
For further Markdown reference, you should open up the markdown help page. The help page is accessible by adding /help/markdown to your hub’s main address.

I totally agree, WanaCon is amazing. There’s so much to learn and I feel like every session is an enormous step in the right direction. Sometimes I feel compelled to write it all down, but if I did so it would fill up CABINETS with folders and I’d never be able to remember the specefics. I believe in taking in as much as possible and processing it through my next works in progress and just trying to incorporate it all as a part of my being.
Anyway, whistling frogs, not cool.
Ahhh sorry Gry!! Lol thanks for continuing reading after I made you hop! Won’t happen again 🙂 You make complete sense – I do make some notes, but mostly enjoy the interaction and letting the info wash over & through me and become part of me – I definitely come out of each session feeling like I’ve progressed further in the right direction! Finding people who love what you love is paramount – have to go and find that fluffy cloud bunny forum, or we should start one!
Which class did you enjoy most this year/got the most new information out of?
I think it has to be the PDMI ones! I hadn’t really considered going small press over self-publishing, but I’ve definitely been convinced to submit and see what happens! Going to wait for April submissions though, so I can get a round of editing in first 🙂 How about you?
I’ve only watched five, I’m still going through recordings 🙂 I had to leave early friday because it was midnight in Denmark and I needed strength for the party on saturday which was the reason why I wasn’t at the conference on saturday.
Omg I just ran a victory run throughout the house!!
Aw *high-five* Gry! Awesome it’s you 🙂 and awesome I got to break the news!!!
*Goes for high five and almost misses from excitement* Thanks! 😀 I promise to make the best of it in order to be worthy of winning!
I didn’t know you were a Kiwi, darling! If I ever manage to make it that far around the world I shall have to drop in.
Community is so vital for a writer’s sanity. It’s so easy to get discouraged. Gaining an audience is so difficult – and we’re not musicians, who can go play at a pub and get instant gratification. Our art/product requires commitment and time and your full attention – something not easily acquired.
Ooooh definitely drop by! I’d get out the good china and everything 😀 I’m really British – but hoping to hear about Kiwi residency any week now, fingers crossed! Agree community is so important – I didn’t realise until I started to live my dream of writing loftily in an attic room… and got kind of lonely up there!
Another wonderful conference. I find now that I attend to learn, interact, and renew my creative batteries. I like your website…well done, but not surprising considering the support team you had.
Thanks & agreed 🙂 absolutely feeling fully charged up and ready to charge forward now!
I wanted to say that I really like your website (was probably my favorite from the ones I viewed in the class) and was curious if you did the illustrations yourself?
It was great to meet you, Sara!
Awesome to meet you too 🙂 Lol good on your husband! The weather here sounds like your daughter – it just *knew* I needed internet, quiet & concentration and threw thunder storms at me accordingly lol… Ah thanks so much! And no, I wish! I’m not capably of more than a doodle – illustrations & logo are by my friend Nicola Whetstone at NKW-Illustration – she’s an architect but hopefully with an illustration business & website pending! She’s also designing my book cover once she’s beta read the thing lol – lucky to have her doesn’t cover it!
Hi, Sara! I’m so glad you managed to squeeze WANACon into your family- and frog-filled weekend! I’m still watching recordings and absorbing all the amazing and informative content.
You are so right about finding great connections with like-minded people through WANA. The support is wonderful!
This sounds awesome. I want to be more plugged in… I could definitely use some help from writers who are further along in the process than me (which is basically everyone, ha).
lol defo plug in.. though you say that but I’ve got a sneaking suspicion you’re going to be super famous! If your books are anything like your blog, I think you’ll go supernova!
Ah thanks so much! I’m so happy Laird built my website – she’s a wizard 😀 Thanks for stopping by! WANACon was just epic, I can’t wait for the next one already!
I’m with Aussa. I’d love to be more connected. I feel like I have so much to learn and I have no idea where to start!
Ah thanks Deanna 🙂 awesome you came by! I was so overwhelmed when I entered the game, had no idea who to listen to and how to navigate the sea of advice & social media without drowning! Going down the WANA rabbit-hole was the best place to start, and where I began to get my bearings 🙂 I’ve learnt so much just from following Kristen Lamb’s blog – never mind the whole host of others I’ve been drawn to from that starting point!

A trend that I love and have spotted all over Pinterest: Ruffles. Tops, sweaters, dresses, skirts…You name it, it has been upgraded with a ruffled detail. I recently added a simple blue top with ruffles by Zara to my closet, and am thinking of adding more of this fun spring/summer trend to my wardrobe.
What do you think of it? Will you be wearing ruffles?

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – A decade after Colorado engineer Amir Massihzadeh hit the lottery, two state agents visited him with stunning news: He was likely the only legitimate winner of a $4.8 million jackpot he’d had to split three ways.
They told the Boulder resident that the other two people who had won the 2005 drawing were linked to a conspiracy in which a lottery insider and several cohorts had rigged drawings in several states. Now Massihzadeh, 62, is suing for the rest of the winnings that he feels should have been his.
Massihzadeh filed a lawsuit Thursday against the Colorado Lottery, arguing he should be declared the sole winner and that the $800,000 cash prize he opted to receive should have been tripled. Accounting for 12 years of interest, he is seeking about $4 million from the lottery for what he calls a breach of contract.
It’s the latest headache for state lotteries caused by former Multi-State Lottery Association information security director Eddie Tipton, who admitted to manipulating the software they used so that he could predict winning numbers on certain days of the year. Tipton, his brother and a friend were recently sentenced for conspiring to use this insider knowledge to buy winning tickets and collect prizes between 2005 and 2011. They fixed jackpots that paid $2.61 million to them and their associates in four states, and their scheme unraveled after Eddie Tipton was caught buying the winning ticket for a $14 million Iowa jackpot that was never paid.
Massihzadeh, who received $568,900 after taxes, argues that he’s entitled to the other two-thirds of the prize because the other tickets were purchased through Tipton’s conspiracy and should be invalid.
“Even though the Tiptons have agreed to repay the money they received from the Lottery, the Lottery has refused to honor its obligation to Mr. Massihzadeh,” his lawsuit says.
Spokeswomen for the Colorado attorney general’s office and lottery didn’t immediately reply to messages seeking comment about the lawsuit, which is the third to claim players were cheated by Tipton’s scheme.
Hundreds of thousands of people who bought tickets on dates in which Tipton could predict winning numbers are pursuing a class-action lawsuit seeking refunds, arguing those drawings weren’t truly random. A man who won a 2011 jackpot is also suing the Iowa Lottery, saying his prize should be larger because the $14 million jackpot should have rolled over.
Tipton, who is serving a 25-year prison term, built computers used by Colorado and other states to generate random numbers for drawings. Starting in 2005, he secretly installed code that directed them to use a predictable formula to select numbers on May 27, Nov. 23, and Dec. 29 for drawings that fell on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The Nov. 23, 2005, Colorado drawing is the first that was fixed.
Massihzadeh had played the lottery for years, often buying a few tickets. Like most, he purchased “quick pick” tickets that computers generated for him rather than selecting numbers manually. He was “shocked and thrilled” to learn that his was one of three tickets that matched all six numbers for the Colorado Lotto, the lawsuit says.
Eddie Tipton had simulated the drawing and recorded likely winning combinations by hand. He gave a notebook with those numbers to his brother, Tommy, then a magistrate in Flatonia, Texas, who traveled to Colorado to play them. One was the winner. To hide his identity, Tommy Tipton recruited a friend to claim the prize.
The third ticket was redeemed by Cuestion de Suerte LLC, which has been linked to two Texas lawyers who are associates of Tommy Tipton.
The Tiptons have claimed that the lawyers stole the winning numbers from Tommy Tipton and played them without his knowledge. The lawyers haven’t been charged. But the Tiptons’ plea agreements state that anyone found “to have profited from the payment of lottery prizes” in Colorado may still face restitution demands.
one winner of two second chance drawings within 2 weeks for 750,000$ more Colorado lottery BS. I call for an outside investigation into this man, the lottery, and all who are directly involved in these drawings. First tipton and now this; I smell a rat.

The National Leasehold Campaign (NLC) has been set up to campaign for the abolition of residential leasehold in England and Wales.
We want to see a complete ban on new leasehold houses, the adoption of commonhold for new flats and apartments, as well as full and proper redress for the millions of people currently trapped in leasehold properties. We believe that all houses should be freehold and all flats/apartments commonhold.
The NLC was started as a Facebook group by Katie Kendrick in January 2017, when she first became aware of the leasehold scandal. In less than 2 years, the Group gained close to 12,000 members and has been hugely influential in raising awareness of the national leasehold scandal. Members of the Group have featured in numerous national and local press and been interviewed on national and local TV and radio stations (Join us on U Tube) . The Group encourages direct action and has held a number of demonstrations, as well as leafleting new developments.
The NLC works closely with Leasehold Knowledge Partnership (LKP) a charity that provides support for leaseholders that is run and managed by leasehold experts, Sebastian O’Kelly and Martin Boyd. LKP are the Secretariat for the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Leasehold and Commonhold Reform Members of the NLC campaign have been meeting with their local MPs and asking them to join this APPG. It is now one of the largest APPGs in Parliament (151 MP’s) and has been instrumental in calling for leasehold reform. Is your MP a member of the APPG?
The day to day running of the Group and it’s strategy and plans are managed by Katie Kendrick, Jo Darbyshire and Cath Williams who are supported by our moderator Joy Dickinson.

Eric Reinders discusses the material culture of chant, the complexities of conversion, and the economics of religious “trades” in this intriguing piece. Drawing on excerpts from Christian missionary publications and other writings, Reinders highlights the subtle cultural dynamics at play when two religious traditions encounter one another, especially under conditions when one aims to supplant the other.
We have always found the most earnest idolaters make the best Christians; indifference is the hardest thing to combat,” said a Miss Harrison of the Church Missionary Society in 1910. [i] Active but low-ranking Buddhists and Daoists were special targets of missionaries because they were perceived as easier to convert than those who were simply indifferent to any religion. So-called heathenism was widely thought to be an expression of an inherent human impulse towards God, however misguided. So British missionaries in China spent a lot of time in and around Buddhist and Daoist temples. The public spaces in front of temples were logical places to preach. The sight of icons was a common starting point for conversations which inevitably turned to Jesus. Also, when itinerating, sometimes the only places to stay were Buddhist temples, which effectively functioned as inns. And missionaries knew well the various populations associated with temples—monks, nuns, novices, and lay activists, such as the old women in Buddhist temples who earned religious merit by chanting. The Buddhist idea of merit created by chanting scriptures and mantras is well-known, but less so is the fact that these ritual repetitions could be parlayed into hard cash. The key concept here is the “transfer of merit,” which is expressed at the end of Buddhist sutras in a short verse in which one compassionately dedicates the merit created by reciting scripture or the name of Buddhist deities for the happiness and enlightenment of all beings. Dedicating one’s deeds toward the well-being of all is the gist of the bodhisattva vow. Early on, merit was established as transferable. The prevailing mechanism seems to be that someone creates the merit and then gives it to someone else; a more orthodox explanation is that the act of sponsoring someone to chant was itself meritorious. One could hire monks and nuns, but that could be expensive. More reasonably priced, these “reading prayers women” [ii] had time-tables for chanting, and used sheets of paper to record the number of prayers, marking little red dots for a certain number of repetitions. This kind of merit-accounting sheet is still in use today, though I suspect the uses of it have changed. Now it seems to be entirely about wish-fulfillment; in late Imperial China, it functioned like that, but also much like money. It was a currency, a certificate of labor, exchangeable with the spirit-world, but also within the human economy.
Figure 1: Chanting account sheet. The instructions specify filling in one dot for every twenty repetitions of the brief ritual on the flip side of this card.
The Church Missionary Society of the Church of England and related organizations such as the Zenana Missionary Society published a large volume of Sinology during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: magazines, letter books, annual letters, annual reports, and circular books. This paper samples from the substantial reportage on China and Chinese religion, in publications such as: Church Missionary Gleaner (later, Outlook), India’s Women and China’s Daughters, Homes of the East, Juvenile Instructor, and Awake! Amidst this large volume of reportage were numerous stories of these “reading prayers women.” Naturally, observing this practice, many Protestant missionaries objected, in general, to the fact that these rituals praised not the True God but an idol. When contemplating this specific practice, they were reminded of the worst abuses of mechanistic salvation, the sale of indulgences, in Catholicism—or at least as they imagined Catholicism. Thomas M’Clatchie, a Church of England missionary, visiting a Buddhist temple, reported in 1845: “In front of the altar was placed a table, on which lay their books used in worship, and not one syllable of which is understood, even by the Priests themselves.” [iii] This remark may simply indicate priestly illiteracy, but more likely indicates the use of unintelligible language in scripture and liturgy. Such remarks refer to Sanskrit or pseudo-Sanskrit words in Buddhist worship, primarily in the form of mantra and dharani.
Many Buddhist scriptures and liturgies indeed contain extended utterances with no discernible semantic meaning for the vast majority of their reciters. A few missionaries discussed mantras with Buddhists, but one would not expect most British Protestant missionaries to appreciate the complex theories behind the use of mantras, especially since they were steeped in a thorough critique of the use of “meaningless” liturgical language in Europe. Throughout Protestant Europe, the use of Latin was rejected in favor of the vernacular, as much during the Reformation itself as during the Victorian movement against Ritualism. So mantras in particular were denied full conscious meaning. In addition to their unintelligibility, mantras and Buddhist liturgy in general were also objectionable because of the fact of repetition. Davis wrote that “To the repetition of the bare sounds, without regard to the meaning, they attach the highest importance; hence they occasionally go over the same words hundreds and thousands of times.” [iv] Repetition of the same statement was rendered absurd if the semantic meaning of the words was imagined as the only worthwhile function of speech, and where meaning is conceived strictly as semantic communication. However, in the chanting of Buddhist mantras, the semantic meaning may be unimportant, so that in Buddhist terms, to point out their literal unintelligibility is to miss the point—namely, the production of the sacred sounds themselves, for the mantra is the deity, in the form of sound. Missionaries associated endless repetition with Catholic practices of liturgical repetition such as the Hail Mary. In the 1860s, many British Protestants objected not only to the fact of repetition but also the chanting style in Anglo-Catholic Ritualist worship. Objecting to “intoning” or “intonation” (also known as monotoning), many British Protestants found it aesthetically unpleasant, comparing it to dogs howling, but more importantly felt it harder to understand than a plain reading voice, or a hymn. Missionaries in China familiar with the current conflicts in England over liturgy would have found the almost-monotoned quality of Buddhist liturgy especially evocative of Catholicism and the “Romanist” tendencies in Anglican churches.
Another theme of anti-Catholic discourse, the hypocrisy and corruption of monastic institutions, was in China also tied to sponsored chanting. A missionary in 1929 tells of a young woman who is destitute after her mother dies; “Then came two Buddhist nuns to the little village, with their long robes and shaved heads, seeking to line their pockets by repeating prayers for dead or living.” She too becomes a nun. But the rituals “brought no peace to her troubled heart. Too soon she realized the futility of it all, the insincerity of the other nuns, most of whom had been taken as infants and reared to the profession. They did not pretend to keep the vegetarian vow strictly in the privacy of the nunnery, and seemed to care only for the money they could extort from the credulous, a dollar for twenty-four chants, or more if they could get it.” [v] As part of a larger industry, these chanting women also made various paper objects for ritual use. Some missionary discussions of Chinese religion focused on the economic waste, and on the threat implied by the great economic power of Chinese religion as an industry. In the popular missionary magazine Awake! Arthur Elwin, in 1895, estimated the cost of all the offerings to the dead at sixteen million pounds a year. In a fairly monotonous article, he emphasized the great expenditure of labor. He enumerated: all the trades in China which are directly interested in the continuation of idolatry, and therefore, of necessity, opposed to Christianity. … When those engaged in the trades and occupations mentioned above realize that their craft is endangered by the spread of Christianity, they are sure to rise up against it. And perhaps soon we shall find the bamboo-planters, the paper-makers, the paper-mill owners, the paper-carriers, the boatmen, the dyers, the pattern-printers, the paper-clothes tailors, the tinfoil beaters, the tinfoil-paper makers, the sham-money makers, the sham-dollar stampers, the candle-makers, the paper box, paper house, paper horse, paper sedan-chair, paper boat makers, and the keepers of the shops where these things are sold, awaking to their danger and rising up, a great army, to oppose the extension of Christ’s Kingdom.” [vi] Passages such as this show an awareness of the financial commitments that had to be broken by converts deserting that army.
In that case, a Buddhist nun got a dollar for twenty-four chants. Temple women were lowlier foot-soldiers in that idolatrous army, but they could still earn a meager living. Temples were in this sense havens for old women with little financial support. When they converted to Christianity their source of income was necessarily ended. Missionaries were insistent that the idolatrous practice must end but were sympathetic to their financial plight.
For example in a 1900 account in India’s Women and China’s Daughters, a certain Mrs. Ho politely inquired of the Gospel and began to attend church, was convinced of the Christian message, but had financial problems because she had been pre-paid to chant Buddhist texts. “She was then quite convinced of the folly and wrong of idolatry” but she felt obliged to those who had already paid her. The missionary Alice M. Phillips resisted the temptation to pay off the debt. She commented “we feared to give her money, lest our motive should be misunderstood.” The rather un-ingenious solution to the immediate obligation was for Mrs. Ho to chant her non-Christian prayers as promised, but very quickly.
Figure 2: Chanting account sheet. This sheet specifies chanting the mantra fifty times per dot, and that 1,200 of these sheets are required for the certain fulfillment of your wish.
Only after all of these things were relinquished, some time later, was she baptized. Rather than just throw them away, converts gave various objects to missionaries such as icons, ritual paraphernalia, and these “Golden Baskets” [viii] of meritorious paperwork. It was part of a ritual of conversion—a repudiation of previous idolatry and a proof of sincerity for missionaries already suspicious of “rice Christians.” Churches in the mission fields had systems of education, examination, and probation, along with a series of specific measurements of commitment, which consisted of giving up all worship of the idols, and (where applicable,) polygamy, foot-binding, opium, temple employment, and vegetarian vows. Hence, it was never a simple matter for a Chinese to become Christian; just saying so was not enough. These precautions were perhaps inevitable given the notion of the “rice Christian”—the apparent convert who desires only the material benefits from association with the mission: food, employment, and legal protection. [ix] Missionaries resisted the move to make conversion profitable. Some missionaries lived in China for decades and undoubtedly got to know the Chinese intimately, but the constant doubts about the sincerity of would-be converts generated a whole hermeneutics of suspicion applied to Chinese converts by Western missionaries.
The value of paper Missionaries acquired books and papers from converts, which were mostly disposed of unceremoniously. But there was an inverse phenomenon, and unintentional economic effect of Bible and tract distribution. The destruction of Christian books took place constantly, and not usually during riots. “Of the thousands of books and tracts distributed, few have ever been heard from.” [xvi] What happened to these books? Some were put to practical or profane use: “making soles for cloth shoes, employing them at the toilet, papering walls, and so forth.” [xvii] But the destruction of so much pious literature so intrigued M. T. Yates of the American Southern Baptists that he became a kind of detective: he first distributed tracts along a street; a month later there was no trace of them. Some said they had passed them on to friends to read, but Yates did not believe this. Then he got a tip-off from a Chinese friend to go to a certain temple. Hiding himself away, very early one morning, he saw seven or eight coolies bring in sacks of books, including his own. “These loads of books were to be burned before the idol, and some of the ashes distributed on the waters of the canals and rivers, to furnish the spirits of the departed with reading matter, and the balance, mixed with oil, would be used to make the paste of which the smooth surfaces of sign boards and lacquered ware are made.” [xviii] The spectacle of the Bible burnt as an offering to Buddha and distributed for watery souls to pass the time is wonderfully ironic.
Missionaries were very familiar with popular Chinese religion, and viewed “earnest idolaters” as likely prospects—for example, the old women who earned merit and money chanting, who made these account sheets. This practice brought to the surface familiar categories of anti-Catholic rhetoric. Also, it was one example of many economic practices which made heathenism not just a set of wrong ideas but a huge industry, an economic army which indeed ought to feel threatened by missions. Disengaging from the idolatrous economy was regarded as essential for conversion, but there is evidence of widespread awareness of and sympathy for Chinese who had to give up their income in order to convert. In the case of Mrs. Ho, she discarded not just cash income but her spiritual bank account and the accumulated wealth invested in her post-mortem well-being. I began looking into this topic out of curiosity about missions and Buddhist or Daoist temples as economic rivals. Missions did provide some economic assistance to converts—mainly work in small industry, handicrafts, as servants, in mission schools and hospitals. Let me reiterate that I think “rice Christian” names primarily a kind of missionary fear or alienation rather than the reality of converts, not only because of the inverse reality, the “riceless Christian” or convert who loses economically by converting, but because far more than economic hardship was often involved. All of us feel sad and embarrassed when we read old Western publications saying: “five missionaries martyred in mob violence in China,” with photographs and details, and as an afterthought, in the last paragraph:…and a couple of dozen Chinese Christians.

Keary Palmer Dryden had a passion for teaching, and through that teaching, she personally and professionally touched the lives of hundreds of Belmont nursing students over the course of her 20-year career on campus. Dryden, 64, died a few months ago, but her husband and brothers are honoring their loved one’s memory by creating a memorial endowment to support Belmont health sciences medical missions.
Dryden began teaching at Belmont in 1999 with full-time duties from 2004-2015. In addition to educating beginning and intermediate nursing students in clinical and lab practices, she coordinated aspects of nursing orientation and the library orders for the School of Nursing. Her fellow faculty recall how she helped new students learn how to think like a nurse as well as her impact on her peers through her consistent encouragement.

I had my worst flight experience back in October 2010. That experience was with United Airlines. I was visiting family for a month over in Australia, with a layover in San Francisco for 4 hours.
The trip from Vancouver to San Francisco was average, there wasn’t any food and the flight attendants almost never came by, but the flight was short and it was only around dinner time, not an issue for me at all.

Lately I’ve been thinking about how successful exploitation and compromise of sensitive information has evolved over the years.
Sure social engineering has been around a long time, Kevin Mitnick was a master of it. But a lot of the damage done and information stolen didn’t even require social engineering. Even just a few years ago, amateur hackers and skiddies (script kiddies) could gain access to thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even millions of valid credit card information belonging to very real people. SQL injection and XSS vulnerabilities were (and some still are) commonplace among many international governments and companies. Teenagers could sit at home, read a simple tutorial on SQL injection, gain access to an unbelievable amount of sensitive information, deface websites, sell this information underground, and cause businesses plenty of headaches. Only after years of news headlines, great sites for education on vulnerabilities, best practices, and even many discussions on whether companies should be held liable for massive security breaches have companies begun to really take security seriously.

Marvel’s Warfare of the Realms formally kicked off final week, which may imply just one factor for the Marvel Rundown: the invasion of the tie-ins has begun. This week we now have dialogue of the hotly-anticipated Warfare of the Realms: Journey into Thriller #1, the debut Marvel work from Journey Zone creators The McElroys. How does the household of writers do with Miles Morales, Kate Bishop, and firm? As if that wasn’t sufficient, return with us to the times when Spider-Man wore a mysterious new black costume with esteemed Spider-Author Peter David and artist Greg Land in Symbiote Spider-Man #1. Does the throwback story shed new mild on a pivotal interval for the character? It’s time for the Marvel Rundown!
Alexander Jones: AJ, the Struggle of the Realms tie-ins have formally begun with a problem that includes acclaimed new Marvel writers the McElroys and seasoned Marvel artist André Lima Araújo. What are your first impressions of the opening tie-in, Struggle of the Realms: Journey Into Thriller #1?
AJ Frost: What’s probably the most eloquent approach to say this was an entire waste of time? I’m unsure about you, Alex, however I didn’t look after this concern one bit. The humor was off, the writing was cringe-inducing, and the motion was ridiculous… in a nasty means. No matter expectations I had for the difficulty actually went out the window by the second web page and have been changed by rising frustration. What did you assume when you have been studying this problem?
Jones: The thought of stretching Warfare of the Realms too skinny is already a scary proposition. Nevertheless, I feel a comic book guide like this confirms a few of my worst fears concerning the occasion and tie-in as an entire. There are such a lot of half-hearted makes an attempt at humor and poorly-executed concepts that don’t make the difficulty a cohesive entire. I’m extremely dissatisfied to see how this title ended up. This was the debut of a model new writing group at Marvel outdoors of one other medium that ought to carry a specific amount of status amongst readers. I do actually just like the power and visceral nature Araújo’s pencils delivered to the guide. Araújo’s fashion is lastly turning into extra streamlined and fascinating to take a look at. My points with the title are from the scripting perspective and I truly thought that Araújo did a pleasant job breaking out of the dreaded Marvel fashion!
Frost: I’m unsure if I agree with all your factors Alex. I don’t see the need for this tie-in problem in any respect. What does it deliver to the desk? What does it do this’s distinctive? From my perspective, it actually failed in capturing something dynamic that would add to this occasion. As an alternative, I really feel it detracts by being each boring and awkward. I’ll offer you a bit of break on the artwork as a result of it was strong.
Jones: I additionally don’t assume the tie-in actually captured any of the weather that made the debut for Warfare of the Realms fascinating. The ensemble forged fell flat for me which was a serious level of rivalry as I like these characters.
Frost: I actually dig Kate Bishop and all of the stuff from the West Coast Avengers usually. However every part right here fell flat. The weirdness of the Asgardian characters simply made much less sense than regular and distracted from what I suppose the authors have been going for (then once more, I’m not fairly positive what that’s). This entire ebook was a cluster of half-baked concepts wrapped in an undercooked package deal.
Jones: It feels like we’re nearly able to wrap up however earlier than we go I needed to level out the paintings. I really feel that Araújo is getting stronger as a penciler and if he had the suitable script, I feel that his interiors would have been a welcomed addition to the comedian. A few of the mind-numbing jokes in sure panels are undoubtedly not enjoying to his strengths. I additionally need to hold forth with you if a few of these authors from different mediums are perhaps not fairly as well-suited to tackle Marvel properties proper out of the gate like this. Perhaps the McElroy writing staff simply want extra time to iron out their voice? Might this be a case of studying on the job?
Frost: Maybe. However why begin on a guide that’s a part of a serious occasion? A serious gamble that didn’t completely gel. I sound like a damaged report right here, however the artwork was positive. It didn’t do something for me notably, nevertheless it was robust pencil work from Araújo. Perhaps that is only a case of missed potential. With a lot happening at Marvel, the powers that be needed to take some mojo from different elements of leisure to create new kinds of tales. The issue is, if the idea isn’t robust then the entire enterprise fails, ya know? I worry that’s this case with this Conflict of the Realms tie-in.
Jones: I’m in your aspect right here. There’s a dangerous stigma about occasion crossovers that don’t serve the story and this difficulty is a cautionary story. Struggle of the Realms doesn’t really feel like an idea that would stretch throughout The Marvel Universe for me and this difficulty doesn’t persuade me in any other case. Are you able to award the difficulty a last verdict?
Frost: Most undoubtedly. This comedian is a SKIP from me. It brings completely nothing to the desk. Fairly disappointing.
Jones: That is the primary Conflict of the Realms tie-in revealed and in addition a totally non-essential SKIP that may be disregarded. I hope future installments and tie-ins of the occasion might be extra fascinating.
Ultimate Verdict: AJ and Alexander say SKIP!
Alexander Jones: AJ, Joe, Marvel is returning to the glory days of Spider-Man’s alien costume with a brand new title for the hero. Did Symbiote Spider-Man #1 stay as much as your expectations?
AJ Frost: Hey lads! Nice to talk with you once more. My expectations for Symbiote Spider-Man #1 weren’t excessive to start with to inform the trustworthy fact. That period of Spider-Man is a bit off my radar, to start with, so I felt that maybe I might come into this situation chilly and not likely understanding what the artistic staff hand in thoughts. It was fairly evident solely a number of pages in that that is the kind of e-book that informal readers with out lots of expertise with the lore can decide up and luxuriate in, even when they could miss the small particulars. So I might say this comedian exceeded my expectations. I’m actually happy with that.
Joe Grunenwald: I’m kind of within the reverse place to AJ’s—I’ve a substantial amount of affection for the temporary time period the place Spidey wore his alien costume. It’s such an essential interval for the character, nevertheless it solely lasted lower than a yr, and it’s all the time fascinated me. The debut of Symbiote Spider-Man feels prefer it could possibly be slotted in amongst any of the unique points from that interval, which, to me, is a reasonably spectacular accomplishment.
Frost: All these Venom standees freaked me out as a teenager, so no love misplaced on the Symbiote stuff, actually. Haha.
Grunenwald: I beloved that a part of Venom was Spidey’s costume. That was so cool to ten-year-old Joe.
Jones: Writer Peter David does a terrific job discovering his stability within the comedian guide. Readers aren’t given any radically new details about the hero but I discovered it to be astonishing in how engrossing the difficulty was from a scripting perspective. David is a very completed creator who can inform all types of Spider-Tales. Greg Land’s artwork was an enormous disappointment for me.
Grunenwald: David does a superb job capturing the texture of these previous Spidey comics whereas giving readers a brand new perspective on a basic villain. Mysterio’s inclusion is pure given the character’s position within the upcoming Far From Residence movie, nevertheless it didn’t really feel shoe-horned in like a variety of backdoor film tie-ins can. And I truly discovered Greg Land’s paintings on this problem to be respectable. It didn’t blow me away, however it wasn’t as egregiously photo-referenced as a few of his previous work.
Frost: Peter David did an exemplary job of guiding the reader to the guts of the story. I imply, it begins off a bit odd by Mysterio simply proclaiming himself a super-villain (Who needs to be generally known as that? I assumed even villains have been heroes of their very own tales?). However the pacing and the callbacks to Marvel yesteryear moved alongside at a brisk run. I’m with Joe, Land’s artwork was par for the course with Marvel. It serviced the story, and perhaps truly made it appear a bit extra retro.
Jones: I attempted my greatest to let a few of Land’s photo-referenced pencils alone however the reference-heavy sequence with Black Cat was unforgivable for me. Having each feminine character depicted by Land carry the identical face is already troublesome to witness. The opposite sequences within the problem have been okay at greatest. I additionally thought Peter’s fractured frame of mind was captured by the script, and the artwork often didn’t maintain the difficulty again for me.
Frost: Fairly handy that Mysterio’s costume features a dome for his head, then. Talking of Mysterio, how did everybody really feel about his characterization right here? Certainly, Quentin Beck goes to grow to be extra of a family identify within the coming months, however for longtime followers, did his look right here stay as much as the character’s potential? Or did it fall flat?
Grunenwald: To be trustworthy I’ve not learn greater than a handful of tales that included Mysterio. I like the concept he’s type of a tragic sack villain—it pairs properly together with his ridiculous fishbowl costume. That stated, I felt like Beck went on an actual character journey on this difficulty, and the ending left me feeling really disenchanted that issues had turned out the best way they did for him.
Frost: It wouldn’t be a Marvel guide with out some sad-sack characters!
Jones: I appreciated Mysterio’s journey as properly. David lent him a level of empathy that I discovered to complement the comedian ebook as an entire. To be trustworthy, I feel we in all probability acquired an excessive amount of of the character’s backstory on this situation, however the writing in these sequences was fairly strong during. I hope in future points, there might be much less of a give attention to him and we get extra time with Peter. The best way that the storylines intersected was fairly nice as properly.
Frost: David undoubtedly was making an attempt to hone in on a similarity that Quentin and Peter can share: the dying of somebody because of their carelessness. Seeing their separate responses shall be fascinating in upcoming points.
Grunenwald: So there’s a New York landmark that’s included on this challenge that may doubtless be controversial: the World Commerce Middle towers. In the long run observe, David says he included these within the script to drive residence that this story takes place up to now. What did you two consider the inclusion of the Twin Towers, and did it have the specified impact?
Frost: Nicely, I didn’t need to convey this matter up as a result of I assumed it is perhaps too spoiler-y. However the inclusion of the Towers is supposed to floor this story in a sure time, which I assumed was a daring selection.
Grunenwald: Spoilers be damned, I need to get into it!
Frost: Okay then! I suppose that this e-book is meant to happen when the unique Symbiote costume was launched within the early ’80s, right? It actually lends to the seedier parts of New York tradition in that interval.
Jones: I agree with your whole takes above. David has all the time come throughout like a politically acutely aware author and the selection to incorporate a few of that iconography I discovered to be actually considerate.
Grunenwald: For me, the inclusion of the towers took me utterly out of the story for a few causes. First is simply the ‘stunt’ of all of it, as a result of that’s kind of what it seems like. There are different methods to get throughout ‘this can be a flashback story’—the recap web page establishes that simply effective. Together with the Towers didn’t really feel essential in any respect in that respect, and felt designed to get individuals speaking about an in any other case fairly common story. On prime of that, placing on my continuity hat for a second, from that perspective, I feel it raises some flags. Marvel has all the time functioned on a kind of ‘ten years’ span of continuity, which means the oldest tales occurred ‘ten years in the past’ from the present time. Even in the event you increase that to ‘fifteen years in the past’, that’s nonetheless after 9/11. Perhaps I shouldn’t be enthusiastic about it that a lot, and I often don’t if the continuity ‘error’ is in service of a very good story. I simply didn’t really feel just like the inclusion of these buildings was value it.
Frost: Is that this story canon or only a particular maxiseries? I’m wondering if which may assuage any points relating to timeline points?
Grunenwald: It appears, based mostly on the top notice, like they’re doing every thing they will to make it canonical. And once more, often I don’t care about continuity stuff if the story warrants it. Nevertheless it felt completely pointless right here, and like type of an affordable approach to get a shock in.
Jones: I can see the place you’re coming from although I consider I interpreted the sequence a lot in a different way. Marvel continuity can also be actually unusual and I can’t see this title helps streamline that concept. I’m nonetheless having fun with this concern sufficient to provide it a BUY. I feel the writing is basically strong apart from a couple of blemishes we talked about earlier. Mining new concepts with this character might be actually troublesome.
Frost: My verdict for this difficulty is a STRONG BROWSE. A lot of nice materials right here, but in addition some problematic parts. Readers ought to determine for themselves.
Grunenwald: I assumed Symbiote Spider-Man #1 general was a reasonably enjoyable throwback problem a few interval of Spider-Man’s historical past that I already liked. I want it had a stronger artist on it, however whilst is I’d give it a STRONG BROWSE as properly.
Remaining Verdict Joe and AJ say STRONG BROWSE, whereas Alexander says BUY!
The Struggle of the Realms tie-ins carry on coming subsequent week with a Punisher-centric story!

The time-honored celebratory Gatorade bath is one of the funnest traditions in sports. You know the drill: In the closing moments of a championship game, players from the winning team stalk their coach before dousing him from behind with a massive tub of ice-cold Gatorade.
It's a perfect ritual for sports like football and baseball, which are played outside on water-absorbing surfaces that maintain traction even when soaked. But basketball? There's no place for the Gatorade bath on the hardwood court. The video, above, from a recent community-college basketball game in Nebraska, shows just why.

99 cent sale 7/27 - 8/03!
Dad gave me my late mother's engagement ring, platinum and diamonds galore. Shannon wouldn't care if I slid a giant hard-candy ring on her finger instead of a three-carat diamond designed to impress. But my future mother-in-law, Marie, will pass out when she sets eyes on that rock, and that will give us two minutes of blessed silence. That woman talks more than Kim Kardashian flashes her naked backside on the internet.

Liothyronine Sodium is a perfect replica of the naturally produced thyroid hormone triiodothyronine, or what is commonly referred to as the T3 hormone.
What is the dosage for liothyronine sodium?
The usual starting dose of liothyronine for treating hypothyroidism is 5 to 25 mcg per day. The dose then is adjusted based on the patient’s response and the blood levels of thyroid hormone. Optimal liothyronine doses are different for each patient and vary depending on the patient’s age, weight, symptoms, blood levels of thyroid hormone and underlying conditions such as heart disease. Individuals who are hypothyroid will require thyroid hormone for life.
In a performance setting, liothyronine sodium (Cytomel) doses will be very similar to hypothyroidism treatment plans. The individual will normally begin with 25mcg per day and increase the total dose 12.5-25mcg every 2-4 weeks as needed. Most will find they will have no need to go above 75-100mcg per day, with the 125mcg per day range being acceptable for very short periods of time.

Today, I’m going to keep it short and simple but exciting. We recently received the May/June 2017 issue of Modern Patchwork magazine and I’m happy to announce that AGF is being featured on the cover!
This beautiful quilt made with Take Shape fabrics was designed here at the AGF Studio and we couldn’t be more excited to see it front and center. If this quilt is a must-have for your home, I encourage you to grab a copy of the magazine at your local bookstore/newsstand or on the Modern Patchwork website for the full tutorial. Plus, to alleviate the hassle of finding all the geometric fabrics in this quilt, our friends at Fat Quarter Shop will be offering a kit!
To purchase the kit, visit the Fat Quarter Shop website.
In addition to this great project, this issue of Modern Patchwork is all about Quiltcon. So if you’re curious to know what happened at this year’s show in Savannah, GA, this magazine has the whole scoop!
I hope you find tons of inspiration flipping through the pages of Modern Patchwork!
You can create many squares with just one Fat Quarter!
Did you know that from just ONE FAT QUARTER you can create 99 squares? YEAH! 99 squares... With the excitement of making a new project, sometimes it's easy to just cut through the fabric and waste some of it. I can relate to this because when you are a beginner it's hard to pay attention to those little things. Before, the most important thing to me was just to cut and get the project done. Now, that I'm learning more and more about sewing and quilting I'm trying to be more careful about cutting in a way that the fabric will last longer.
Last week I was reading some articles and I stumbled upon one that explained how many squares you can cut from a fat quarter and I found it very very interesting. So I decided to make another little graphic for you to pin or save it to your computer! I hope you find it helpful and that you're able to maximize the times you can use your favorite prints.
I hope you had a great Easter! Hope you all had some time to relax with family and friends. It may be hard to get back into the swing of things this Monday after eating all that Easter candy but I am here to help you get motivated!

FUSIONS: A new way to sew with AGF!
Today is an exciting day here at the AGF HQ because we finally get to show you the long awaited look book for our FUSIONS collections! In case you’re not familiar with this bite-size concept, let me tell you all about it. The collections that are part of FUSIONS consist of 10 prints from our AGF designers that have been curated into conceptual themes.
Each print that is selected for Fusions has been re-colored to coordinate with each theme. What’s beautiful about these collections is that it converges all the artistic styles our designers have to create unified works of art through the themes. We’re starting this concept with four collections (themes). In addition to the 10 cotton prints, each Fusion will have a rayon and 2 prints in knits.
To me it seems like each Fusion is a mini art exhibit that showcases many styles! But enough of me talking, let’s get the Fusions showcase going!
Boho Fusion | This Fusion is for those sewist who are bold, free spirited, and love mixing unique patterns with bold colors! As you can see, this range combines lush florals and tribal inspired prints against a saturated backdrop for artsy sewing.
Ethereal Fusion | For this Fusion we wanted to bring the essence of romance and sophistication through the use of delicate colors such as blush and periwinkle. Sweet hearts, classic florals, and low volume elements are put together to create a timeless and feminine aesthetic.
Abloom Fusion | If you’re as obsessed with florals as we are, you’re going to fall in love with this Fusion. We have hand picked some of the most memorable AGF florals and we’ve given them a vibrant splash of color so that all your projects will bloom with beauty!
Joyful Fusion | Do you get joy from using fun prints and fresh colors? If yes, you’ll enjoy sewing with Joyful Fusions. We’ve paired trendy geometrics with cute flowers and colors such as tangerine, turquoise, and pink for a youthful selection of prints.
So, what do you think? Wait a second… we have more to show you! Check out the lookbook for the full selection of projects we have made with FUSIONS.
AND… don’t forget to download all the FREE QUILT PATTERNS! Here they are starting from the left (clockwise).
Now for the best part! Make sure to enter our giveaway by filling the form below for a chance to win a fat quarter bundle of ALL the FUSIONS. Giveaway end April 24th at 3:00pm est. Good luck!
I hope everyone is inspired to create beautiful projects with Fusions!
I don't know about you but the changing of the season is making me want to make fun spring inspired projects! I thought fabric flowers looked like a fun project to make and I knew right away that I would use Bountiful fabrics by Sharon Holland! This collection has a nature/country side feel that I just love! Fabric flowers are a great embellishment to add to any project to liven it up and give it some personality! Try attaching them to handbags, head bands, hair ties, or just making them to decorate your table for spring.
Click on the video below to follow along with me! This project is a fun weekend afternoon project! It was very relaxing and kind of addicting! I would suggest to make a bunch of flowers at different sizes and colors and save them for projects in the future to add to!
How to choose the right type of fabric for your sewing project?
Today I want to show you how to find best substrates for your project on the AGF consumer website. Choosing the right substrate is one of the most crucial tasks when choosing the fabric for your project. Depending on the pattern you use, most likely it will have fabric recommendations. Pattern designers tend to know what substrates will work best for the project but it doesn't hurt to do your homework. This will help you make the project just as you envision it. :) Below is a glimpse of off all the substrates that we carry at AGF.
Quilting cotton - AGF quilting cotton is known for it's superior weave, drape, and incredible softness. This makes it extremely versatile and easy to work with. Although, based on its name you may assume it’s for quilting only, the truth is you can make garments with it too. It’s durable, breathable and easy to care for.
Knit fabric - knit has more stretch than woven fabrics which makes it perfect for garments. It is generally easy to sew with but you might want to avoid stretching it when placing it on the pattern and when sewing with it. It's also recommended to use a zig-zag stitch or serger when sewing with it to avoid ripping the seams.
Voile - Woven lightweight AGF voile has a higher thread count and tighter weave than most cottons. This is what makes it so soft and silky to the touch. It’s natural drape makes it perfect for fashion projects. Pinning is often recommended when sewing with voile because it tends to be a bit more slippery than quilting cottons. Check out some patterns perfect for voile fabric.
Rayon - Another fabric perfect for lightweight garments is the newest AGF substrate: Rayon. Rayon feels very delicate to the skin but at the same time is durable and you can wash it in the washing machine. It’s absorbent and very light, 76g/sqm (learn more about GSM of all AGF substrates) which makes it perfect for summer wear, active wear, dresses and blouses. Smaller pins and needles are recommended when sewing with this substrate (the recommended size: 65/9). We recommend avoiding thicker needles because they can make wholes in the fabric.
Canvas - Perfect for sewing projects that require more durable and sturdy fabric. Works well for garments and also can be successfully used as an upholstery fabric. Since the weave of the fabric is much more loose than in quilting cotton, it is recommended to use a longer stitch length (around 2.0). See all the tips on sewing with canvas.
Denim - When you think of Denim, the first thing that probably comes to your mind is "heavy fabric". Well that’s not the case with AGF Denim. It has GSM 127/sqm which makes it only slightly heavier than AGF quilting cotton. You don’t even need a special needle to sew with it. Of course, if you are looking for heavier denim we have our solid textured and crosshatch textured denim. Check out all the details about AGF denim.
I hope you you find the video helpful and that from now on it will be easier for you to choose the right type of fabric for your project.

health nurses (PHNs) and taught it to nursing students. Although I had used Watson’s Caring Science to inform my own practice, as I taught public health nursing, I began to realize the influence of Nightingale as well as feminist and critical social theories on contemporary public health nursing practice. I see Critical Caring, therefore, as a descriptive mid-range theory of public health nursing that I have set into a theoretical framework.
The study described in part in this article began in 2005. After the initial data were gathered, professional and personal circumstances made it impossible for me to continue with the work. I owe my most profound thanks to Claire Betker, a public health nurse with a breadth of public health nursing experience. Beginning her doctoral studies in 2010, Claire saw value in the theory and approached me about work we might do together. Together we began to analyze the data that, in turn, energized us to complete the study.
public health nursing practice which she illustrated using a metaphor of a tree (practice) anchored by its roots (theory) where theory is nourished by practice and continues to evolve while supporting practice and giving it definition. This description of theory and the 7 carative health promoting process that represent the ‘core’ of public health nursing practice resonated with what I had experienced in practice, just as they did with the participants in the research described in this article. I encourage those within the pubic health nursing community to consider how Critical Caring could: a) guide practice; b) assist us to articulate and give voice to our practice and its importance; and c) be a tool of resistance to those forces that prevent PHNs from working to their full scope of practice.

The mouthwatering home is now under $2.4 million.
By Angelly Carrión· 4/22/2015, 10:00 a.m.
Exterior shot of Carpe Diem.
Where do we even start? “Carpe Diem,” formerly going for $3.5 million, is one of those places that seems like it must be experienced as opposed to talked/written about. It’d be like coming back from Great Adventure (which might be harder to get to if you aren’t taking a car) and having your words fall short when trying to explain all the fun that’s to be had there.
That’s kind of the situation with this resort-style home, but we’ll try our best. For starters, there’s an an indoor pool that’s open year round, home theater, a, quote, “professionally outfitted” gym, and a step-down billiard room with fireplace and back deck access. There’s more cool stuff inside, but we want to get to our favorite part: outside, the property has a grotto with waterfalls, as well as a pond! Interestingly enough, the property has gotten a price and land cut since we last featured it on this very blog. Formerly paired with 34-acres, you now get only 6.3-acres, although four additional 6 to 7-acre parcels are available for purchase.
Now get thee to the gallery!

"Lian gong" means "health exercise" or "practicing an art." "Liangong Shi Ba Fa" (or Liangong in 18 forms) was developed from research based on exercises and therapies common to Qi Gong, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Tui Na or therapeutic massage, external Kung Fu stretching exercises, and sports therapy in addressing patients' and practitioners' issues of acute pain. It is a type of therapeutic bodywork combining isoaltion exercises and self massage. Liangong Shi Ba Fa was created in Shanghai, China by Dr. Zhuang Yuan Ming, a doctor of Traumatology, one of the branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the last 30 years, since it was first previewed publicly, it has spread throughout China and other parts of Asia, Japan, Brazil, and is continuing to garner interest world-wide.
Liangong is a regimen of self-manipulation exercises that has an effect similar to therapeutic massage in that the emphasis is placed on using self induced pressure on target areas in order to aid circulation and bring about relief and relaxation to troubled areas of the connective tissue. The exercises been found to be effective in relieving pain in the neck, shoulders, lower back, legs, feet, and it has been found to be of value in relieving pain associated with some internal disorders. Like Qi Gong, consistent Liangong practice is believed to improve health, even in healthy, strong people, enhancing their posture and flexibility which is at the heart of any endurance or strength training program.
While some stretching exercises are characterized by an elongation of muscle fibers, what sets Liangong apart is that after the practitioner moves into a particular position and forms a specific shape, without moving anything else, gradual pressure is placed on a specific target area. Then, combined with the performance of an "internal stretch" (that is basically defined as lifting the sternum and releasing the tailbone within the shape), stress is released in the targeted area (and connected areas) much in the way massage uses direct pressure in order to release tension that may be pent up in a tight area or help bring circulation to soothe or support the recovery from an injury. However, it is a massage that is self generated and directed.
A lighter massage can be attained by using music that was developed for Liangong practice, and the timing of which may be appropriate for superficially "hitting" the target area or for people who wish to practice together in groups. However, slowing things down, and taking the time to define the shape specifically, as well as gently feeling the release and sensations derived during practice allows for more in-depth understanding of the sophistication of Liangong's targeted stretching, and is also a highly useful approach for practitioners with perpetual stiffness that will not ease up under any circumstances.
Unlike some forms of Qi Gong that may incorporate gross or larger patterns of movement for the purpose of sensing "chi," each of the movements of Liangong are focused specifically on a particular part of the body, that when isolated (and an "internal stretch" performed), works on the connective tissue (fascia) to release, realign and balance the whole body. It is meant to feel like a deep, penetrating massage that releases stress and enhances your posture and frees any restrictions of movement. Similar to Qi Gong, Liangong's stretching movements are enhanced by being coordinated with breathing which helps to increase both the capacity of breathing and the positive effects of a more complete engagement in the process of respiration. Additionally, Dr. Zhuang's research found that having ample oxygen when performing the exercises can optimize the effects of stretching.
There is increased interest in the use of stretching by athletes at various levels who are looking to take their flexibility and performance to the next level and beyond. Stretching has long been known for its use as a "warm-up" or "cool down." However, stretching, moreand more, is becoming a viable part of performance, including staying loose during an activi ty or competition and as a part of sports medicine and therapy. Liangong is extremely effective at all levels, and helps loosen, warm up, maintain warmth, and cool down tight, stiff muscles, as well as support and expedite recovery from muscle pain and sports related injuries.
Additionally, there's also a growing interest among physicians, physical therapists, coaches, and trainers who want to assist their patients and clients to improve their flexibility quickly and easily, and because of Liangong's organization and structure in dealing with specfic areas and regions of the body, Liangong can make it easier to automate the design of stretching routines, as well as manage planning, progress, and outcomes.
How About the Liangong Book and Video Combo: "A No Pain, No Gain Proposal"?
This was my condition seven years ago: after suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for fifteen years in my wrists, knees and elbows, I was involved in an accident which broke my left ankle. I had already become weakened and stiff from the disease, and following recovery from the injury I was in even worse shape. Then some new drugs became available, and I found myself free of joint inflammation for the first time. But I had no idea how to rehabilitate myself. My posture had deteriorated, the range of motion of my limbs was curtailed and I was repeatedly straining and spraining parts of my body. Sometimes the pain from such injuries would last for weeks. I had never possessed a very good sense of balance, and I frequently came close to falling. Rotator cuff tears apparently run in my family, and I was facing a rather bleak prospect for my health as I aged.
Then, purely by chance, I discovered Liangong. A coworker demonstrated the forms and encouraged those around him to give them a try. I did, and found them extremely difficult to learn and painful to execute. But I stayed with it for a week or two, and suddenly realized they were having a very beneficial effect on me. I felt at the time like a puppet with new strings. Many of the stretches seemed awkward at first, some even contrary to the calisthenics I had learned in school in the U.S. I recognized that my coworker's knowledge was limited, and that I needed to find an instructor. That led me to Gerald Sharp. I have been practicing with him for almost seven years.
The benefits I received from the first two sets of eighteen exercises have been many and profound. I have regained flexibility and strength in my joints. My balance has improved. I no longer fear a disastrous shoulder injury. And when I do suffer a minor strain or sprain, it usually is gone within hours or overnight. I must conclude that Liangong truly is an effective means of toning muscle, strengthening joints and increasing flexibility.
Even more remarkable is the effect on my posture. I began to feel as if I were standing taller, and it turned out not to be an illusion. Over the years I had lost about three-quarters of an inch in height, not remarkable for the middle-aged population in general. But I had supposed that loss to be purely the result of intervertebral disc compression, an inevitable shrinkage. Liangong, however, was correcting a loss in height resulting from bad posture; my spine had become curved sufficiently to add to the disc shrinkage, and I did not know it. Several of the exercises straighten the spine, and not temporarily, as happens on the chiropractor's traction table. I have regained one-quarter of an inch, something I would not have imagined possible.
developed a sort of faith in Dr. Zhuang and my mind is open enough for me to follow the movements as if "chi" were real, and that has led me to an increasing awareness that "chi" is a useful, if not necessary, idea for focusing one's efforts in healing the body and turning oneself into a less clumsy actor in the drama of life. At the same time, I know that improving my external form is an unending task and I will never feel as if I have "perfected" it.
I believe that the exercises of Liangong will keep me on my feet a lot longer than anything else I could be doing for myself. Dr. Zhuang has given the world a precious gift. It is a shame that Liangong is not better known in the U.S.
Thank you again for the private session and class yesterday. They both have been helping me move forward. I can tell that there has been a major energetic shift, as I am not the same person I was before I saw you on Friday, April 2nd.
Today for the first time, I was not as sore and decided to try Lian Gong. It was a totally different experience for me, as I invoked and remained focus on the bubbling well and feet in the hips.
After doing the first 12 moves, I felt openings in my hips, lungs, forehead, chest and upper part of the solar plexus & area around the liver and gallbladder. In the solar plexus area, I could feel the tissues opening and pain releasing in my chest around the breastbone.
Part I moves 13-18 and then in Part II (1-6), I continuously felt my hips opening up more and re-positioning with the right hip moving towards the back and the left hip moving forward--I can now feel the energy move through them more. I also focused a little bit more on the moves that are harder for me. Previously, I had to hold on to something, but this time I had the confidence not to hold on. Although I temporarily lost my balance, I was okay. I did not feel the fear like before, so it was a better this time.
My chest is also turning and straightening. I suspect this is related to the hips moving into place. Anyway, I am appreciative and grateful. Thank you, again.
Congratulations to Dr. Zhuang Yuan Ming and his son Zhuang Jian Shen for both giving and spreading Liangong around the world so successively in just 30 years. However, in America, Liangong is still in the infant stages. There are classes but the involvement is just getting off the ground. Many people still believe that through vigorous sweating, running, and even weight lifting that they will improve their health, stamina, and strength. However, year after year, America and many other of the world's leading nations continue to lead the way in cancer, obesity, heart attacks, and a host of other hapless conditions. Some in the U.S. have found T'ai Chi Ch'uan, or have scratched the surface, focusing on the dance and not the substance. T'ai Chi requires a deep understanding of Yin and Yang and how to use the lightest of touch to advance the art's application. In many instances, however, that too, is lost in the presentation of America's T'ai Chi Ch'uan. What makes T'ai Chi work, and work effectively is the ability on the part of the practitioner to use their joints in sophisticated ways. The beauty of Liangong is that it can quickly awaken the beginner's awareness as to the joints and how the joints can be specifically used. T'ai Chi practitioners who discover Liangong benefit immediately from Liangong's internal knowledge and the practitioner's T'ai Chi Ch'uan practice is never the same. Giving the practitioner a more direct pathway to the internal.
The concept of Yin and Yang is in all things. It can be found in leadership, business, education, art, therapy, and more specifically in the practice of Liangong in 18 forms. Actually Liangong is a wonder that transcends Yin and Yang, and presents the essence of Yin and Yang through movements that are specific, clear, and highly useful. Those that are exposed to Liangong feel its positive benefits immediately, and the negative, often acute, power of stress is laid to rest.
What makes Liangong so wonderful is that it simply works. You don't have to be a good dancer, an athletic person, or a muscular person to benefit. All you need is stress, which nearly everyone has, and the will to do something about it yourself. Those in America who have become involved in Liangong have benefited greatly from its prescriptions.
All in all, I feel without a doubt that the future of Liangong both in America and worldwide is bright. Anyone who contacts it through practice, admires the immediate feedback they receive from its practice. Dr. Zhuang Yuan Ming and his son, Zhuang Jian Shen are to be commended for its creation, development, organization, and promotion of this wondrous healing art. An art, that was developed from rigorous testing, and the future of which will undoubtedly stand the test of time.
I have the honor of being one of the few (if not only) practitioner of Liangong Shi Ba Fa in Toronto, Canada. I take this honor with a sense of pride and duty, thanking my instructor Gerald A. Sharp, Dr. Zhuang, and the practice of Liangong for my continued health, flexibility, and general energy. Each day I slowly proceed on plans to educate my community on the benefits and practice of Liangong.
"I feel so energized." "My shoulders no longer hurt". "My headache is gone". "Thanks. I feel much better" are some of the many comments I have heard from my coworkers as well as students after I introduce them to either the first series of exercises or even just a few targeted postures.
When I started my practice of Liangong I had sciatica for over two years. Sciatica is the pinching of the sciatic nerve causing numbness and pain in the leg and buttocks region. This ailment made is to difficult to stand or even sit very long in a chair. I had seen several doctors about my problem including an acupuncturist but no cure seemed available. With the thought of living with this problem for the rest of my life I decided to continue with my life and flew to California to study Mind-Form Boxing under Mr. Sharp. During my stay, Mr. Sharp eagerly conveyed upon me his wishes for me to study Liangong as well. His energy and enthusiasm for these exercises and Dr. Zhuang was remarkable. I happily agreed and began my studies of Series One associated with strains, sprains, and stress. I practiced my exercises every morning, as I continue to do this day. After one week my sciatica disappeared and has not reappeared since.
Liangong is a remarkable system of health - it aims not only at aiding the trauma that invades and circulates our body, but also provides methods to regulate and refine our current levels of physical, emotional, and mental health. The exercises are therapeutic in nature with movements and postures that include self-massage, stretches, compressions, and rotations that affect the muscular, skeletal and nervous system as well as organic function and physique. The approach to Liangong is organic in nature allowing it to be tailored to the specific ailments of the individual, their level of total fitness, and personal desires.
Entering the year of the monkey instills a sense of change and renewed spirit. As the month of January ends I look forward to the future and the increased awareness concerning Liangong in Toronto. With the help of Mr. Sharp, I am beginning to write a series of articles on this incredible form of exercises; contact local TV shows about guest spots; and formulate classes in the community to teach Liangong.

With opposing Eugene city councilors unable to block its path, a competing city auditor proposal moved another tentative step toward the May ballot on Wednesday.
In a rare 3-3 vote, Eugene city councilors defeated a motion by Councilor Emily Semple to stop all work on the proposed city charter amendment, which would create an auditor overseen by the council. Because Semple’s stop-work motion was a tie, it failed.

The design for Bamboo is based on a - kadomatsu (門松, literally "gate pine") a traditional Japanese decoration of the New Year placed in pairs in front of homes to welcome ancestral spirits or Kami of the harvest.
Piney at this time of year.
"I, the protector of New Year!
Will block any intruder or guests!
None is touching this door!"

Candice Lin’s unsettling new installation squeezes some big ideas into the tight spaces at François Ghebaly Gallery. It opens with a row of small sculptures encased in bell jars: an ear of corn, a Brancusi and a Yoruba carving of Queen Victoria.
They are made of a spongy material that’s oddly familiar — oh wait, they’re dildos. Haven’t you always longed to take America’s signature crop, high modernism, and the colonial encounter to bed? In one way or another, Lin suggests, we already have.
Down in the lower gallery is a diorama of sorts, consisting of hairy, black corn stalks that sprout kernel-like brown teeth, and a black pig from whose orifice — you can guess which one — a video is projected. It portrays a conversation between two clay-mation pigs about a U.S.-funded program in which hardy, black Caribbean swine were killed and replaced by their more fragile, pink, U.S. cousins. The references here come fast and thick, from GMOs and relentless profiteering to international “aid” and racism.
This tableau is accompanied by another video in sign language, a large image of a Navajo talisman, a sculpture of a desiccated man, a table full of phallic plants, and a perversion of the Manneken Pis fountain. It’s a bit much, and at times feels like a crazed attempt to expose all that’s wrong with contemporary society. Yet striking connections emerge, collapsing the macro into the micro in one hot stew of burbling desire.

Our team at Iowa Cancer Specialists continue to have deep roots in the community, and we are dedicated to serving the Quad Cities with the most innovative cancer treatments available.
If you or a loved one has recently been diagnosed with cancer, it’s only natural to have a lot of questions: will you need chemotherapy? Will you lose your hair? Will you be able to keep working? And, most important of all, are you doing everything you can to get the best treatment possible?
What you won’t find are long walks between the parking garage and the clinic, long wait times for labs or doctor’s visits, or lengthy travel when you aren’t feeling your best. Our goal is to provide you with the best care possible, with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Because most cancer treatments can negatively affect your body’s blood supply, there is significant overlap the way doctors treat cancer and the way we treat other blood disorders, including abnormal blood counts, hemophilia, and anemia related to kidney disease.
Although we are called Iowa Cancer Specialists, we successfully treat people who don’t, and will never have, cancer. Learn about non-cancer blood disorders and the treatments we offer.
Additional services provided by Iowa Cancer Specialists include consultations on Lifestyle intervention, palliative care and survivorship planning, women’s health and wellness, weight management and smoking cessation.
We strive to provide comprehensive, compassionate care to promote the well-being of our patients and their family members. Let us help you achieve your health and wellness goals!
We have the hassle-free convenience of an on-site infusion center, in-house dispensing and billing office.

Corn & Cucumber Salad – Chef Tom Cooks !
My girlfriend and I drove out to some of the great farm stands on eastern Long Island last weekend and came back with a great selection of fresh local grown produce. I prepared this simple corn-cucumber salad that had such a nice flavor.
Peel the cucumber and slice it in half lengthwise, then slice thinly. Place in a bowl along with the remaining ingredients. Toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4-8 hours before serving to allow the flavors to combine.

Hey, I've never thought of combining corn and cucumbers. I love corn in just about anything.
And I'll bet it's sweet too with the sugar. Growing up in Texas, I learned to lightly sprinkle sugar on a green salad rather than using salad dressing. I still do that to this day.

So it all has come to this. The winningest program in college basketball history against the second winningest. Guido versus opie. The best freshman versus a scrappy bunch of less talented (although still incredibly talented) “upperclassmen”. So why don’t I care?
This is the culmination of the NCAA Men’s Basketball season. After months of preseason tournaments, intraconference battles, and the arduous whittling away of a field of 68 by winning and surviving this is what we are left with. It may just be the fact that the NCAA tournament is more known for its exciting first two weekends, filled with upsets and heartbreak. By the time the championship game comes around – disregarding whether your team has already lost or even made the tourney field at all – we might be more anxious that it’s finally ending moreso than finally crowning a champion.
There also might be the sense that, while both programs have the first and second most wins in the history of college basketball, Kansas does not feel like it should belong. Instead of having two true goliaths we have one in Kentucky and an above average, by their standards at least, Kansas team. That seems like it would make for a great story right? The more talented young upstart Kentucky against the less talented but scrappier Kansas. But then you realize it’s Kansas. They should be a goliath but they aren’t, and haven’t been at all this year. You can’t truly root for them as the underdog because, more seasons than not, they are the team that everyone wants to beat. This isn’t the plucky (I know right, who doesn’t love some really cliched sports terms) Butler squad going up against Duke or UConn, this is Kansas. This is the school that hired the man that invented basketball as its first coach.
With each passing year Kentucky and by extension John Calipari become less hateable. Sure he builds his teams around getting the best high school seniors every year. He has taken a chance that most coaches are unwilling to do, knowing full well that most of his recruits every year won’t be on the team for longer than their first year. However, this isn’t four years ago. Calipari is not seen as the evil coach who doesn’t care about his players or his team more than a shrewd strategist who is using the system in place to his full benefit. Had this game happened when Calipari first became the head coach at Kentucky everyone would be on his back for “ruining” college basketball, now they either begrudgingly accept his philosophy or even applaud it.
Not to mention that this particular Kentucky team is actually likeable. How could you hate Anthony Davis? He’s just a goofy looking freshman who seems to be sired by one of the Potatoheads (whether it was Mr. or Mrs. remains a mystery). Davis doesn’t think he’s great, doesn’t flaunt his greatness, and is actually great in the most selfless aspect of the game, defense. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, while having some swagger, doesn’t overly flaunt it either. You can tell he’s hustling every play and is trying to impose his will on his opponents and the game. The only guy to dislike on this team is the still insane Terrence Jones, but now that he is playing third or fourth fiddle (unlike last year where he was 1A to Brandon Knight’s 1B) it isn’t nearly as bad.
On the flip side it isn’t as if Kansas incredibly loveable. Aside from the big name school factor it isn’t like they don’t have NBA caliber players on this team. Thomas Robinson has played his way into being a top 8 selection in the upcoming NBA draft. Both Tyshawn Taylor and Jeff Whithey will end up on NBA rosters and probably as solid bench guys for years to come. They might not have the top tier talent of this year’s Kentucky but they definitely aren’t lacking either.
Kentucky vs. Kansas. Kansas vs. Kentucky. Due to the fact they both don’t offer juggernaut squads and you can’t route for Kansas because they are underdogs (even though they will be for this game, they aren’t a true underdog) the game seems more humdrum than anything. We won’t be witnessing anything exciting this year. Sorry Kentucky and Kansas, the only way you can make this game memorable is by making it a good one. Here’s to hoping.
My prediction: Kentucky 75 – Kansas 67 with Kentucky controlling throughout.

Shindell, D. and Faluvegi, G., 2009. Climate response to regional radiative forcing during the twentieth century. Nature Geoscience, 2, 294–300.
Shindell and Faluvegi began by creating latitude bands and finding the response of the surface temperature to various levels of well-mixed greenhouse gases (WMGHG), ozone, and aerosols. Through this modeling, they found that when the forcing occurs within a specific latitude band, the mean temperatures follow the forcing per local unit area. Therefore, when the global mean radiative forcing is considered, the mid-latitude forcing and polar forcing must be greater than the tropical forcing (~ 2.4 and ~7 times, respectively). Higher latitude forcings are thus more sensitive to global forcing when compared to other regions.
Shindell and Faluvegi then compared the results from the modeling to the past patterns of surface temperature over various regions and time periods. These comparisons examined global and gradient responses and found significant implications for Arctic trends. The surface temperatures of the Arctic are warm until 1930, cooler from 1930–1975, and rapidly warmer onwards. Although there were differences between the observed and the recreated global and gradient responses, Shindell and Faluvegi accredit the discrepancies to internal variability and aerosol forcing. The models demonstrate a necessity for aerosol provided cooling.

While ostensibly commenting on the work of a contemporary novelist, Kierkegaard used this review as a critique of his society and age. The influence of this short piece has been far-reaching. The apocalyptic final sections are the source for central notions in Heidegger's Being and Time. Later readers have seized on the essay as a prophetic analysis of our own time. Its concepts have been drawn into current debates on identity, addiction, and social conformity.

Slate roofs have been around a long time. As a matter of fact, some slate roofs have lasted for well over a century and are still going strong. Their popularity is limited only by the expense--but they are definitely worth considering if you can afford one.
Here's an overview of the pros and cons of installing a slate roof.
Slate roofs are expensive. The major disadvantage of slate roofs is that they're several times more expensive than other forms of roofing.
Natural slate roofs are beautiful. Few roofs are as striking as a slate roof made of quarried stone. If slate is used on the roof it can also be used to highlight your counter tops and flooring inside of your home.
Slate is durable. You can hope for a decade of life out of other types of roofs but slate can last a century or more. Your house will never need a new roof.
Not a do-it-yourself project. Slate has to be cut and nailed quite precisely, or breakage can result. Many do-it-yourselfers run afoul with breaking slate and watch the cost of their project skyrocket. A professional slate roof installer should be brought on board to make sure the job is done right.
Extra roof support is required. A slate roof weighs three times as much as a roof laid with asphalt shingles.
Some slate roof installers even offer alternative plastic and rubber slates that look like the real thing, weigh a lot less, and are considerably less expensive. Another recent trick of the trade is using tracks during the installation process, which eliminates nailing.
Is a Slate Roof a Good Investment?
Is a Slate Roof Right for Me?

Professor Higgins lectured in Minami-uonuma.
 On February 6th 2011, ECOPLUS organized educational symposium titled Self reliance of the local community and the power of learning in Minami-uonuma, Niigata with Professor Peter Higgins of Edinburgh University, Scotland.
 The symposium, held on February 6th at the auditorium of Minami-uonuma regional development bureau, attracted 49 participants including educators, city council members, and the residents of Tochikubo and Shimizu Village. Some came over from Tokyo metropolitan area.
Participants enjoyed exchanging ideas with others.
 At the first session, ECOPLUS reported the activities of TAPPO and the study result which demonstrated the educational values of rural villages based on questionnaires and interviews of the program participants as well as involved villagers. At the second session, Prof. Higgins appealed the importance of outdoor and experiential education with the practical examples from Great Britain. Then the discussion among the participants followed.
 As the study result, Dr TAKANO Takako, Executive Director of ECOPLUS, reported that the participants learning was linked to agriculture, living, and history of the village, which were based on the human-nature relationships, and their learning went beyond the life philosophy and values. She pointed out that rural village itself was full of learning elements.
 Prof. Higgins commented that TAPPOs activities are the leading models in educational movement around the world, which connects the local community with school, children with adults, and social education with school education.
 Prof. Higgins lectured about the effects of outdoor and environmental education, and the connection with the local community. He introduced the words by John Dewey, Education is not a preparation for life, it is life itself, and continued to say that, for a growth of oneself, it is necessary to learn for the heart, then for the body, and finally for the brain in that order. He explained that just a thrilled experience doesnt require efforts, and that therefore it hardly involves the sense of responsibility. It is necessary to spend a lot of time to think and strive for oneself.
 He said experience in nature increases concentration, reduces stress, and improves a problematic behavior. He introduced a concept of green, white, blue, and dark space, and emphasized that Minami-uonuma has green space, snowy white environment, beautiful blue sky and darkness at night, which makes Minami-uonuma a perfect place for learning.
 He also pointed out that place-based education should include not only nature but culture of a place, enterprise for self-reliance, and citizenship to take responsibility for something bigger than themselves.
 Then participants were divided into 10 groups, and exchanged ideas.
 A comment by high-school student struck everyones heart. She said I had thought the education in big cities are far ahead of ours in rural area. But as I heard todays discussion, I am convinced that its not true and there are lots of advantages in rural area. Im very proud of this place. There was a round of applause as she finished her words.

In 2010, Nuedexta® (dextromethor-phan hydrobromide and quinidine sulfate) was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat PBA episodes in MS. Nuedexta is the first and only approved treatment for PBA at this time.
Some doctors advocate using certain antidepressant medications, including the SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), such as Celexa and Zoloft. Although their exact course of action is not clear, they appear to be effective for many. These antidepressants are typically administered at a lower dose than for depression. While these medications may well help to manage the symptoms of PBA, they do not cure its underlying cause.
If you experience PBA, hope is in sight. The Center for Neurologic Study Emotional Lability Scale is a good screening tool available for PBA. You can complete it at your MS neurologist’s office. If you have PBA, you will need to consult an MS neurologist to determine which medication is best for you.

Despite constitutional limits, Philippine president considering martial law if drug problem turns 'virulent'.
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has said he would consider declaring martial law if the drug problem deteriorates, adding "no one can stop" him from making such a decision.
"I have to protect the Filipino people. It is my duty. And I tell you now, if I have to declare martial law, I will declare it," Duterte told a gathering of businessmen in his hometown of Davao on Saturday evening.
"I don't care about the Supreme Court. No one can stop me," he said. "The right to preserve one's life and my nation ... transcends everything else, even the limitations."
Under the 1987 Constitution of the Philippines, the president can declare martial law up to 60 days "in case of invasion or rebellion".
The constitution makes no mention of drug violence as a justification for declaring it. Congress and the Supreme Court also have the power to review any such declaration.
But Duterte said that his duty "to preserve the Filipino people, and the youth of this land" is sufficient to suspend the writ of habeas corpus.
"Not about invasion, insurrection. Not about danger. I will declare martial law to preserve my nation. Period," he said.
It is not the first time that Duterte has openly discussed declaring martial. On Thursday he said the constitutional provision giving Congress and the Supreme Court power to review martial law declaration needed to be revised.
But he also said earlier in January that he had no plans of declaring martial law, saying it was "nonsense", adding that it did not improve the lives of Filipinos when it was declared in the past.
In 1972, then President Ferdinand Marcos declared martial law, citing the threat of communist insurgency in the country.
In August of last year, Duterte was angered when the Chief Justice sent him a letter questioning his decision to release the names of judges accused of links to the illegal drug trade.
"If this will continue and if you will try to stop me, then fine. Would you rather I declare martial law?" Duterte was quoted as saying.
Duterte won the May 2016 presidential election largely on a platform of fighting the illegal drug trade.
As of mid-December, less than six months into his presidency, more than 6,000 people have been killed as part of that war on drugs. Dozens more have been reported killed since January 1, 2017.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. Now we’re getting somewhere! Better than the first, way better than the second. I like how the physical/technical strain of the driving is more evident. Definitely a contrast with the delinquent joyride thrills of the second movie. And the change to mostly night-time, dense, urban driving makes for all kinds of crazy lighting and colors that gives the restless camera more to ogle. The two opposing father-son stories work. One son rebellious, one obedient. A possibly inadvertent dramatic bonus: what with the setting not being conducive to reckless gun-play in the streets, the few times when a gun is drawn are a bit more potent. Great job on audio across the board. Also, the scene with Neela driving is reminiscent of Toretto’s “10 seconds” monologue, but it also instantly made me think of the balcony scene in Heat.

QUETTA, Jan 4: Acting president of the Balochistan National Party (Mengal group) Mir Nooruddin Mengal and seven other activists were arrested near Khuzdar.
According to party sources, they were intercepted by a heavy contingent of police near the Baghbana area and taken into custody while they were on their way to Khuzdar from Kalat.
Khuzdar District Police Officer Agha Babar Gul said that an AK-47 Kalashnikov assault rifle and several rounds were recovered from the acting BNP-M president’s possession.
He said that cases had been registered against him for ‘provoking people against the state’. He said that Naseer Ahmed Shahwani, Malik Farooq, Mohammad Noor Mengal, Ghulam Mustafa Shahwani, Mohammad Anwar Mengal, Maqsood Ahmed Shahwani and Abdul Wahid Mengal had also been arrested.
Jamhoori Watan Party’s spokesman Amanullah Kanrani has condemned the arrests and said that the government wanted to deprive political parties of their democratic right to protest against government atrocities in the province.
He said that hundreds of political activists were in jails while a large number of political workers were missing. He said that a JWP leader, Saleem Baloch, who was released only 15 days ago after nine-month detention, had also been re-arrested.
Blaming the government for conducting an operation against Bugti tribesmen in different areas of Dera Bugti, Mr Kanrani said that security forces had arrested a large number of innocent people, including children and old men, during the operation.

It looks like Israeli-Palestinian negotiations may eventually restart. Perhaps. Likewise, American-Iranian negotiations, perhaps, or not. American-Israeli negotiations about settlements have been dragging on for months; in the meantime, judging by the dramatic rise in trips of Israeli political leaders to Moscow, somebody must be negotiating something on that track, too.
One of the (many) problems with the way the media treats negotiations is that too many of the reporters have never seen a negotiation close up. As a result, many reports focus on what the reporters think would be a good outcome to have. This gets even worse with bloggers. In reality, negotiations are generally unpleasant encounters between very hard-nosed folk who are doing their utmost to get as mush as possible from the other folks while giving as little as possible.
The Atlantic has a fascinating description of a negotiation that happened last year when the Bank of America had second thoughts about acquiring Merill Lynch, and the men of the Federal Government didn't want that to happen. Yes, all the relevant men (there seem to have been no women) were on a first-name basis; and no, they were not being nice.
This is how big boys negotiate.
here is another Big Boy "negotiating"

Welcome to the September 2012 update for the 2013 Con.
After a well earned break, we finally began to turn the property wheels again. In January 2012 we set out to prepare a number of improvements in the non-authentic area of the village. We are always happy to make additions and improvements to our site and systems in order to deliver an even better “next” event. Back in January the 2011 Con was but a memory and at that time we hadn’t even consided a bid for the 2013 Con, but we were prepared to push on and make some necessary improvements just to be ready in case the unthinkable happened (which it did: we're running again).
Kitchen Annexe : We have set out to add an annexe to our kitchen facility to help take some pressure of our kitchen staff and provide some extra room for all the necessary food preps and clean ups needed during a large 4 day event such as Con. Whilst we hardly expect this structure to whip our guests into an excited frenzy, it will be a common sense structure to provide greater comfort and ease of duties for all of our club members, helpers and volunteers. We expect to complete this structure with walls and working sinks in our next trip in October.
Quartermasters Store: We have begun work on our Quartermasters store, as a direct result of the canvas tent that we utilised for the past 2 Cons slowly deteriorated under 700mm of rainfall per annum. The Quartermasters Store is where we house all our goods and stores for the event including our food, hence the demand to build something more substantial was a pressing need. Rest assured all of our supplies will be housed in a far better area than the previous events. This will be completed next working trip and allow us to move into some new items in the main village area.
Round Hut: We sacrificed our scheduled land trip in early August 2012 to take the opportunity to hold a productive working bee in Sydney. The objective: to get the jump on and pre-fabricate some items for quick assembly on site. The main item we began work on was an 8m Round Hut to be assembled in the main village area. The pre-fabrication day was a success and will enable us to reduce time constructing the roundhut on site from October onwards. We intend to locate it across from the main marquee area, where it will provide another substantial weather proof structure in which to hold workshops, and in which our guests can gather and congregate. We will keep you posted as it progresses.
The Official XVIIARC2013 Logo: We have decided on a Logo for the 2013 Con after receiving some generous help, choices and options from one our guests. We are pleased to report we have gone with an original image of a Viking Ship in full sailing splendour. It is an image which has been done in various forms in the past and the graphics in this version are a definite winner. We think it is a good looking image and will adorn all of our official merchandise including shirts and caps. For now we hope you like the logo we have chosen.
We extend our sincere gratitude and a special thank you to Nathan Vellin of Cathal, who has been so help and generous in dedicating his time and expertise is helping us with this. We certainly appreciate it and help from our guests such as this certainly allows us to concentrate on the back end of the event even more. It is also a great way for some of our guests to take a bit of ownership of the event itself.
XVIIARC2013 Tokens: Once again we have enlisted the help of Roy Castell to design and produce the Con Tokens for all our guests. Hand cast, they are always made to an exceptional quality and make an excellent memento of the event as well as a worthy addition to any re-enactoer's 'bling string'. Roy always keeps his cards close to his chest on its theme, but it will be different to the logo and we expect to see the initial castings by Beorg-wic this October long weekend. We will share Teaser images as soon as we have them.
Vinland's Coffee House: That’s right, she’s doing it again!
Chandra from AAF will once again be running the wonderful and ever expanding Coffee house of renown – The Vinland’s coffee House. Often the haven for the caffeine starved re-enactor, we are pleased to announce you will be able to get your daily if not hourly fix along with a number of other beverages including hot chocolates, a vast selection of Teas, and other delectable delectables including the chocolate soldiers and ginger bread men to boot! Be sure to stop by for a relaxer or two during the event. (Have we mentioned the chocolate?).
Call for Expressions of Interest to run the Tavern: We are making an official call for any Expressions of Interest to run the Convention Tavern. We have already fielded the odd offer or so but to no avail yet, and we are seeking anyone else who may be interested in taking this one on. We will be glad to offload it and would be keen to give any keen group the opportunity to run it if they choose. The Tavern structure and all its inclusions are already in place and just awaiting a tenant! We will be making some basic tables to accompany the bench seating from last event. If you are interested then please contact us and we would be glad to provide any further details and hopefully receive your submission. Naturally, if we cannot secure the services of another interested club or person, the responsibility for the Tavern will fall back to us as event hosts.

In the afternoon of Sunday, May 6, 2018, at Our Lady of Africa School in Malabo, the Third Encounter of former students of the Teresian Association in Equatorial Guinea was held, with the theme "United to do good!." This makes reference to a phrase of Saint Pedro Poveda.
On a sunny morning of the 17th day of April 2018, on the feast of Saint Pedro Poveda’s 121st sacerdotal ordination, a new school building of ITEC, Inc. (Saint Pedro Poveda College) was inaugurated.
In the digital book "Así es Parres, Arriondas", edited by Asturias Actual Foundation, María Luisa González Llano is mentioned, a beloved and valued teacher, born in that locality on May 24, 1918.She died a few months before she turned 100 years, on August 22, 2017, in Oviedo.
On January 18, a new Children's Center was opened in Cuatro Veredas, Guadix, Granada, coordinated by the Teresian Association.
Jacinthe Nkongolo writes about Bana ya Poveda Center, in Kinshasa, which welcomes minors in situations of marginalization and vulnerability. This information is about some of their latest actions, such as the installation of the Children’s Committee.
Leo XIII Residence for Graduates and Postgraduates started its fifth year with an academic ceremony and celebrated the achievement of several of its residents.
A seminar on "Families and Schools in Difficult Times" took place in Lima, Peru, on September 30, facilitated by the Socio-Educational Proposal of the Teresian Association (SEP) in America.
With the theme: Educate in Difficult Times: Deepen, Systematize, Influence, Innovate, a Seminar on the Socio-Educational Proposal of the Teresian Association (TA) in America took place in Bolivia on October 4-8, 2017. Forty-two people from 11 countries participated. They wanted to go over and evaluate the process from 2013 to 2018. Maite Uribe (TA President) and Elisa Estévez (Member of the TA Governing Council) attended the event. At the end of the meeting, the participants left with the desire and commitment to open and strengthen new paths of transformation of that which is human, with the strength of the Gospel.
The Socio-educational Movement (SEM), "Educating in Difficult Times" in Brazil, celebrates ten years. In this context, the X National Seminar was held last August 19 with the theme "National Curricular Common Base tensions and challenges" at the Teresian School in Rio de Janeiro with much participation.
A seminar-workshop on "Teachers as Guidance Counselors, Companions in the Journey,” took place on August 20th at the Victoria Díez Center for Culture, Formation and Development in Dapitan, Sampaloc District, Manila. This was organized by members of the Teresian Association (TA) working in public schools. The event was part of the celebrations of the feast of Blessed Victoria Díez, teacher, catechist and martyr, whose feast is celebrated on August 12.
The Teresian School in Dublin (Ireland) celebrates now eleven years working with the Teresian group of Villa El Salvador, Peru. The project began eleven years ago when Inés Neira, the Teresian School Manager, in conjunction with Janett Ramirez from Solydes, proposed to bring a group of students to Peru to raise awareness about the poverty in that area of the country. Since that year, 2006, nine groups of students have passed through Villa El Salvador accompanied by teachers and and former mothers and past pupils. The experience now continues with the Centro Cultural Guadix team.
During a meeting on the Educational Proposal of Pedro Poveda at the headquarters of the Teresian Association in Rome, Margarita Bartolomé Pina presented a volume of the Critical Edition of the writings of Poveda, "Essays and Pedagogical Projects."

5th Grade Earth Science unit - Lake Mary Field experience with earth’s interacting spheres.
W.F. Killip Elementary School is a heavily high needs elementary school in the Flagstaff area. Through this program they intend to create a STEM Academy in their school that will provide students the opportunity to participate in embedded STEM activities in all areas. Through extensive professional development in STEM, Common Core, and Next Generation Science Standards along with ongoing support and resources, teachers will be given the ability to refine their teaching to fully integrate these high level skills throughout their day. If successful this school will serve as a model for other schools in the district.
"No longer is it good enough for students to sit in desks and rows absorbing information… Knowledge is instantaneously accessible for today’s children. What we must do as educators, is provide kids with opportunities to APPLY that knowledge. We must do it in ways that reflect the real world and in ways that are personally or locally relevant to our student’s lives."
Over the past three years Killip’s teachers have collaborated with community partners and instructional leaders to develop over 20 STEM based units of instruction. The instruction of our Reading, Writing, Math, Science and Social Studies standards are all integrated under one STEM based topic.
Over the course of the project we have learned how to frame the instruction of academic content in terms of a problem our students must solve. This requires not just the learning of academic content and skills but that coveted APPLICATION of new knowledge and information.
We have begun to find and frame these STEM based units within the context of problems that are personally or locally relevant to the lives of our students and their families. It is through this type of engagement and integration that we have found the balance between accountability to standardized testing and those too often, ‘cliche’ benefits of STEM education.
Where do we go from here? Given time, continued support from the business and political sectors, STEM education models such as those developed through this Helios STEM School Pilot project, may prove to be the foundation for the type of reform that Arizona’s education system needs.
At Killip we are fiercely proud of our work and accomplishments in STEM, yet humbled by the work we still have ahead of us. We must incorporate the explicit instruction of those again cliche, "21st Century skills”. Our students must be able to learn and apply knowledge in settings that allow them to communicate and collaborate as they brainstorm, develop and refine solutions to problems.
This is the work we will undertake during the next two years as we continue to push the realm of innovation in education.

You do not need to fear the word “fitness”. Maybe thinking of it makes you think of a rough workout or your childhood when you were overweight. These sort of negative feelings must be done away so you can begin to enjoy a healthy new body. This article will help you get started.
Try changing the things you do when you work out. You will not be bored and stay on top of your exercise regimen. Beside, your body gets used to a certain style of working out after time, so you lose the benefits of constant exercise.
Try exercising during TV shoes to keep yourself going. You can use commercial breaks as opportunities to workout. Do simple weight training exercises when on the couch. There is always time to squeeze in exercise.
Crunches alone will not give you washboard abs. Abdominal exercises will strengthen your muscles, but they won’t burn off your belly fat. For six-pack abs, do lots of cardio, resistance training, and changing your diet.
A kickboxing class is a great way to get fit. It is one great way to work many muscles and work up a sweat. Kickboxing can burn a tremendous amount of calories, and your strength will increase a lot as well.
Words matter, so avoid using the words “exercise” or “workout” to describe exercising. Using either of these names can decrease your motivation. Instead, name the specific activity, such as walking, jogging or cycling.
Do not work out if you are ill. Your body is already battling to heal itself during these rough moments, and the additional strain isn’t advised. You will not get ahead with your workout and you should never assume you can sweat your illness away. This is why you should avoid exercising until you feel better. To speed your recovery, eat properly and get sufficient sleep at night.
Sprinting requires that you run fast, not just by getting faster, but by perfecting your stride. You may be tempted to increase your speed by stretching out your front leg to cover a greater distance. However, the proper form requires that your front foot lands directly under your torso. Use your toes to push off through your rear leg in order to get you moving forward. Your speed in running will increase if you practice this technique.
Between sets in your routine, stretch out the muscles being worked on. The stretching should go on for 20 or 30 seconds. When people stretch between sets, it can increase their strength. Also, stretching lessens any potential for injury.
Box squats can help you bulk up your quadriceps. Box squats help you increase your quad size exponentially. The only thing you need is to set a box right behind you. You are going to pause briefly as you are coming back down from the squat.
Strength training can help you as you run. Runners for some reason do not associate their sport with lifting weights, but it definitely something they should do! Research shows that runners can run faster and longer without feeling tired by creating a regular schedule of lifting weights.
In order to get a good workout, do some yard work. Yard work is something that always needs doing and can always provide you a workout. Being able to accomplish two different things makes this a worthwhile activity. Strive to improve your yard about once a week and take advantage of the useful exercise it provides. After a while, you’ll be enjoying a well-kept yard, and an in shape body.
Before you begin any fitness routine it is best, especially when trying to tone your arms, it is best to come up with a list of goals. To build even more muscle, lift more weight to increase your intensity level. High repetitions of smaller weights will allow you to sculpt and define your arms.
In the past, weight belts were routinely use. These days, they are reserved for extra-heavy duty lifting only. Over extended periods of time, a weight belt can actually do more damage than help. The lower back and abdominal muscles will not have to work as hard as they should, resulting in weaker muscles and a greater chance of injury.
Work out your abs regularly. Get into the habit of working them out a couple days a week, not too much because like any other muscle, it does need its rest.
The best method of getting fit is daily exercise. Daily exercise keeps you focused so you never let a day go to waste in regard to your physical health. Daily exercise also helps make exercising a habit. On some days though, it is best to work out in moderation in order to not put too much stress on your body.
With the information you’ve read in this article, you should now have a better idea about what it takes to become a more fit individual. You will feel better about your body, live longer and have a lot of fun.
Hopefully you have found out everything you need to know about the subject of Best First Time Steroid Cycle and Get Fit With Legal Steroids. Continue learning to better your rate of success. The quicker you learn how to deal with Best First Time Steroid Cycle and Get Fit With Legal Steroids, the better your chances will be at becoming a successful leader in this industry.

There may be some stamina reservations about this horse, but he is 10lb well in after an impressive 30 length win at Ascot. He races aggressively from the front which will keep him out of trouble, especially in today’s race where there is likely to be lots of pace on. He seemed to save his best for Sandown, but that is more likely down to him been a very good jumper which is needed around Aintree.
He should be out front in today’s race which should see him trade low; he currently trades around 80.0, but has been as big as 110 earlier.
Since switching to Ian Williams yard, Gas Line Boy has turned in some better performances and his jumping has seemed to improve as well. He was a first fence faller in the 2015 Grand National, but if he finds his rhythm and takes up a prominent position, he should be trading much lower than his current trading price of 130.0 on Betfair.
Highland Lodge has been hammered by the handicapper for some good performances over these fences, but he is a course specialist who likes to race prominently. He was a shade unlucky to not have won his last two here after first suffering interference from a loose a horse and then idling when looking the winner on the run in, having traded down to 1.06 in-running.
He’s a sound jumper who likes to race prominently; at 40.0 on Betfair he looks a great back-to-lay that could trade down to single figures with a little luck in-running.
Saint Are finished second in the 2015 Grand National and ninth the year before, but last year he was pulled up. Though he was pulled up just before the last in 2016 after fading, he still traded down to 5.0 in-running from a BSP of 17.95. In 2015 he traded down to 3.10 from a BSP of 34.0 and he is also a two-times winner over these fences.
Saint Are currently trades around 40.0 and looks another that could trade down to single figures in-running, especially as he comes in to this race on the back of a great run at Doncaster.

Shooting Illustrated | Get Ready. Get Set. Compete!
Get Ready. Get Set. Compete!
Six years ago, I found myself at a local outdoor expo event, standing at a shooting bench, trying to figure out if an M1 Garand or an AR-15 was going to be the first rifle I would sit behind and fire. I’d had a less-than-stellar experience the only other time I’d tried shooting, and I was about to choose the pretty wooden gun, since it looked significantly less scary to me. Thankfully, my better half convinced me to try the AR, and the instant I pulled that trigger became the most defining moment in my life.
By the time I was done at the expo that day, I was positively, completely hooked on shooting. What I didn’t know is that the experience was about to completely change my life.
A few days later, I ran out and bought myself a brand new Ruger 10/22. My better half taught me the basics, and then as any wise significant other does, he urged me to seek out training from other sources. It just so happens that I live in the best place in the world to shoot, and I quickly discovered a local opportunity to learn and train with other women at a “camp” called Babes with Bullets. The three day camp came highly recommended to me, and I’d heard positive things about one of the lead instructors that had kind of a funny last name: Miculek.
After spending three days getting up to speed with a few of the top ladies in competitive shooting, my desire to shoot had now developed into full-fledged passion for practical-style competition. I found a range near me that offered regular USPSA and steel matches, and began shooting competitions once a week. I was also able to take advantage of another local training opportunity with Her Handgun, another fantastic organization that provides classes and practice for women.
For the next year, my passion for the sport only grew. I’d gotten the hang of the basics and could shoot a match safely, but I still had a lot to learn. I knew that I was in this sport for the long haul, so it was time for some serious training. It just so happens that the best practical pistol shooter on the planet teaches at the same range I do (best place in the world, remember?), so I signed up a class with Rob Leatham. After a single one day class, my shooting improved and continued to climb for months afterward. Another class with Leatham a year later found even more gains for me, and at that point I started to consider myself a solid competitor and saw my name jump up to the middle of the results.
Competition can bring out the best in a shooter, and it's a great way to see how you perform under pressure.
For the first few years I competed, I didn’t take dry fire practice seriously, and as a result, I hit a rut that lasted more than 2 years. After all those gains I’d made, I started to move backwards in the results, and I decided I’d better start adding dry fire to my life. I’ve made significant breakthroughs recently with regular, focused dry fire sessions in the comfort of my living room with some 1/3 scale targets, a shot timer (or a shot timer app), an empty gun and a few empty magazines. At first, it was tough for me to figure out what or how to practice without making "pew," but I discovered some excellent books, including one by World Champion Ben Stoeger that is specifically designed for dry fire, so I always have direction and purpose when I practice.
The beauty of dry fire (besides not having to reload ammo afterward) is that it provides the perfect opportunity to isolate specific skills and break down what is normally a series of movements into their individual components. It’s pretty common for me to exclaim “Wow, I didn’t realize I was doing that!” during a dry fire session, since I can put all of my focus into one tiny part of the process. When I’m dry firing, I often stop to ask myself, “How’s my grip? Am I following through when I break each shot? Why did I wait until I was halfway across the living room to press the magazine release?” I don’t have time to think about these things when I’m shooting in a match, but during dry fire, I get that opportunity.
My competitive shooting adventures have taken me across the country and beyond, and my travels have allowed me to forge lasting friendships with hundreds of others that are just as passionate about the shooting sports. It is through those relationships that I was presented with the amazing opportunity to join Team Sig Sauer this year. As part of a diverse team, I now have the enviable task of helping other competitive shooters learn and grow while continuing to compete in matches across the country.
For those who are thinking about getting started with the shooting sports, I say run, don’t walk, to the match nearest you. My journey may be unique, but the training I’ve received is currently available to anyone, and there are thousands of matches across the country to choose from. I can’t promise that your journey will take the same path that mine has, but I can guarantee that you will have ridiculous amounts of fun and make memories and friends that you will cherish for a lifetime.

Chiropractors often look at the misalignment of bones in the spine, but few pay attention to other potential pain sources. Craniosacral therapy is derived from traditional osteopathy, but most craniosacral practitioners aren’t trained to fully evaluate, diagnose, and treat. As a licensed physician, Dr. Williams examines your entire body for obstructions and/or underlying causes of pain—making this treatment more holistic, and potentially much more impactful. Check out the rest of the website, or call Dr. Daniel Williams' office to learn more. The office is on the north side of Indy, near 96th and Ditch Rd.

The most time consuming yard chores are watering and mowing so the best way to create low maintenance landscapes is to consider ways to reduce the amount of water you need and minimizing the amount of grass you must mow.
Watering with an automatic irrigation system targets plant roots with much more precision than a hose or with an oscillator, saving you money by conserving water use. This low maintenance landscape option can be programmed when you aren’t even around. The best time to water your lawn is early in the morning when it’s still cool and a moist lawn will survive the heat of the warm afternoons better.
Clover lawns are drought tolerant, insect-resistant, compete well with weeds and don’t have to be mowed often. In addition to having a low maintenance landscape, clover will save you money and it is environmentally safe, making it a great substitute for grass.
Moss provides the same low maintenance landscape option as clover except that it grows in shady parts of your yard where grass won’t grow. If you have ever noticed how often moss grows in areas that are problematic for grass then yiu know it makes a great alternative.
There are many options for drought-tolerant perennials that do well in Calgary. This low maintenance landscape option simply saves money by needing less water. If you do have a favourite plant that likes to be water then just be sure to plant it in a cool, shady area of your yard. It will be less thirsty if it stays cooler.
Mulch absorbs water and slowly releases it throughout the day as your plants need it and you can save even more money if your make your much yourself. If you have an overly dry area for which there seems to be no other solution, mulch is probably your answer. Mulch is also a low maintenance landscape option by suppressing weeds, making yard care much easier.
Winter doesn’t seem like the time of year around here to think about low maintenance landscape options however a technology that provides an alternative to snow-removal is worth a try. A mixture of heated water and anti-freeze is pumped through a system of tubing that runs under the driveway, walkways, patios and porch steps and heat radiates up to the surface melting away snow and ice. Drains catch the liquid run-off and channel the water away.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers are required to document (BMR) procedures throughout their production process from receipt of raw material to dispatch of the final product. Managing these documents is time-consuming and prone to human error. With the current competition and evolving technology, companies who are still using paper-based BMR (batch manufacturing records) are facing difficulty to ensure conformance to regulatory requirements, maintain data integrity, maintain quality, reduce time to market, reduce inventory and operational costs.
Implementing “ProcessXE”, a MES (manufacturing execution system) will help companies execute eBMR (electronic Batch Manufacturing Records). ProcessXE will ensure paperless manufacturing, provides real-time visibility of shop floor, enforces compliance and help decrease production cycle time and deliver quality products at a reduced time to market.
Mr. Pari Subbiah, Program Manager, Sarjen Systems Pvt Ltd was the Speaker at the session.

Democrats and Republicans are racing to woo singles so we’ll vote for them on Election Day. Which party do you think best serves the interests of single people?
According to a recent article in the Washington Post, single women tend to vote overwhelmingly for President Barack Obama’s Democratic Party, but more than a fifth of unmarried women aren’t registered. So for Democrats, the challenge is to sign them up, and rile them up — chiefly on the notion that Republicans are waging a so-called “war against women” on issues like contraception.
Republicans, meanwhile, are betting women, like men, will vote on Obama’s stewardship of the economy. They’re looking to attract singles who are conservative and think a Republican candidate is more likely to get the economy back on track.
Which political party do you think best represents the interests of singles in America — both men and women?

In the new film, "Ice Princess," Michelle Trachtenberg plays a self-confessed science geek who finds her passion when she laces up a pair of figure skates.
And with this film, she hopes young girls who see it are encouraged to find their dreams.
"I want every girl in the audience to say, 'I believe in myself,' " Trachtenberg tells The Early Show co-anchor Rene Syler. " 'She works so hard, I can do it, too. I can achieve that.' "
As Casey Carlyle, she is a brainy bookworm who, through her passion for the sport, ends up skating for gold.
"The most amazing part is that you see my character fall, you see her struggle," Trachtenberg says. "You see her work hard to get her goal and her dreams."
Her hope is that girls' parents will support them as well. In the film, Trachtenberg says, Casey "always felt comfortable at home doing physics. That's what her mom geared her towards, going to Harvard. My mom is played by Joan Cusack, who is amazing. One day I discover: No, I love ice skating. That makes me happy."
The importance of communication between mothers and daughters is, in essence, "the core of the movie," Trachtenberg says. "It's the heart and soul."
To prepare for the role, she took skating lessons. "So, we were actually going through, personally, me training to be an ice skater and Casey being a skater in the movie. We were trying to get everything to rock. "
And she did a lot of her own skating. Trachtenberg says, "I trained for eight months for the movie. And my big favorite move to do is the outside edge spread eagle, which I worked really hard on and came close to perfecting it many times, and finally, one day, it hit."
She also had to follow a special diet. "They set up a nutritionist and sports doctors, and all these experts," Trachtenberg says, "They're like, 'Well, you want to stick to grains, vegetables.' I'm like, 'Right. Give me chocolate.' "
At the age of 4, she broke into the business through TV commercials. By the time she was 8, she was appearing regularly on the Nickelodeon series "The Adventures of Pete & Pete."
She also did two years in the recurring role of the autistic Lily Montgomery on the ABC daytime drama "All My Children."
In 1996, she had the title role in the feature film "Harriet the Spy" and made her TV-movie debut in "Christmas in My Hometown" (CBS).
In 1997, she moved into the primetime in the CBS series "Meego." She played one of three children who choose an extraterrestrial, played by Bronson Pinchot, to be their nanny.
In 2000, she joined the cast of the popular cult series "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" in its last season on The WB (2000-01), playing the title character's hitherto unknown sister Dawn. When the series jumped network to UPN in the fall of 2001, Trachtenberg went along, continuing to assist her older sibling in the fight against supernatural creatures.
In 2004, she was seen in the teen comedy "EuroTrip" and Gregg Araki's controversial indie drama "Mysterious Skin."
She was recently seen on the HBO's critically acclaimed series "Six Feet Under," starring as the pop star Celeste, who hires Keith (Mathew St. Patrick) as her bodyguard. She was also featured in Trapt's new music video, "Echo," in March 2004.
She was named by Teen People Magazine as one of "20 Teens Who Will Change the World."
Trachtenberg has been an active spokesperson for R.A.D.D., DARE America, The Starlight Foundation and many other charities.
Her contributions to the fight against drugs earned her the prestigious responsibility of representing the youth of America at CNN's headquarters in Atlanta, where she helped President Clinton launch "The Coalition for Drug Free America" campaign.

It's a Misfits cover! and space philosophy! And embarrassing gender norms!
If you're a fan of The Misfits and remember the giant spider-crab-thing on the cover of Walk Among Us, welp, that's from Angry Red Planet, and it's what got me to watch Angry Red Planet.
In a lot of ways, this movie is your standard dose of 1950s sci-fi, except everything has an exclamation point after it. The opening Army-types-around-a-table-explaining-everything scene is like the one you've seen a million times, but the science is all a little more made-up sounding, the uncomprehending stares are a little extra confused, and the marching orders are just a bit more incomprehensible than usual. It's a truly fantastic scene.
So, look. I'm writing this review in a Vegas diner, which is kind of perfect, because Vegas is like America with an exclamation point. And I think "America With an Exclamation Point...In Space!" could have been the tagline of this movie. But what I can't figure out is if the filmmakers did that on purpose.
You've got heedless destruction — to test their freeze ray, the astronauts blithely destroy some native Martian vegetation and then cheer when it shatters like glass. Their first reaction upon seeing alien life is to blast it! Blast it!!!! You've got upsetting gender assumptions — the female astronaut thinks she must be nervous as one of the first four people on a new planet "because she's a woman." You've got the fetishizing of guns — the guy who gets to wield the freeze gun loves it, and pets it, and damn near calls it George.
But the most remarkable thing about this movie is the goddamn bats. No. Not the bats. The neon. Wait...sorry. Almost. Vegas, you know? You know how in The Martian it looks like Matt Damon's on Mars? Well in Angry Red Planet it looks like they're in a picture taken at The Bellagio gardens and then ruined by Photoshop filters.
Dubbed the "Cinemagic Process," all the scenes on Mars appear to be dyed red. It's not actually that simple — I couldn't figure out exactly what was happening. Suffice to say somebody went wild with the Filter Gallery back when that could only be achieved photochemically. It's legitimately captivating.
But all of this, like Las Vegas itself, begs the question of who is in on the joke? See, it's one thing to watch this movie and think, "Damn! It's a miracle we didn't blow ourselves all up!" But at the end of the movie (Spoilers? I don't know. Probably not.) the astronauts decode a message from the Martians that says Earthlings (read: "Americans") are "scientific adults but intellectual children."
For as much as this movie echoes the themes of other, better movies, this is maybe — given the hindsight provided by history — the most clear-eyed assessment of 1950s America that I've heard. But it's impossible to tell if everything that has come before in this movie was designed to reinforce that idea, or was in spite of it.
Maybe I'll ask the ghost of Hunter Thompson.
Bonuses: +1 for the dialogue in the opening scene; +1 for being on a Misfits album cover; +1 for Cinemagic!

An old tradition becomes interlaced with a new take on art in the Schingoethe Center exhibit “WOVEN: The Art of Contemporary Native Weaving” opening Tuesday, October 4 from 5–6:30 p.m. The exhibit features the work of 18 renowned indigenous artists who expand concepts of Native American art through their use of nontraditional materials and motifs, putting interesting twists on baskets, rugs, photographs and sculpture.
“WOVEN” will also be complemented by two companion exhibits: “WOVEN: Traditional” (curated by Bero) and “A Place for Everything: Containers of Native America,” curated by Laura Russman, curator of collections. The opening reception for “WOVEN” will be followed by an artist talk by Kelly Church (Ottawa and Chippewa). Clark will provide an overview of black ash basketry.
Many of the artists in the exhibition come from families of weavers whose artistry dates back generations, including Church. She comes from the largest black ash basket-making family in Michigan, an unbroken line of weavers. Her exquisite technique combines with unique materials to bring freshness to the craft. Her piece titled “Treaty Hat” pushes the boundaries of these traditions to comment on the loss of her people’s land from which her materials are harvested.
“WOVEN: The Art of Contemporary Native Weaving” runs through Friday, December 16, 2016. For more information, visit aurora.edu/museum.
