I got drunk at a party while my wife was away and ended up sleeping with one of her best friends. We had a great time but there has been no emotional entanglement afterward. We both just feel awful about what we did, but we don’t know how to tell my wife without her thinking there’s more between us than just that one fling. Help! What should I do?
Wow, dude. I don’t know what to tell you. Obviously your wife has every right to be upset by this, since it happened without her knowledge while she was away. And obviously you and her friend should feel badly for this. But I’m not sure why you think that WHACK! Magazine, of all the publications on the internet, is the one to go to for moral advice. We know sex and porn, but morals? We all lost those somewhere in the third grade.
You want to know how I’m not qualified to answer this? My first reaction to your question was “THREESOME!” I mean what better way to bring you all together and get to enjoy your infidelity once again? It sounds like a dream come true to me!
But then I realized that this is probably not in the cards unless your wife is a lot cooler with you sleeping around than your initial question implies. And if she’s not somewhat open to group sex or open relationships, which I’d assume she’s not since you haven’t told her yet what happened… then… I don’t understand her or know how to answer your question.
So, yeah. I’d say go for the threesome. Or just tell her and deal with the fallout—you fucked up and you’re going to have to face the music if you want to come clean. But dude, my moral compass points straight toward hell, so honestly… go ask Abby.

Experts fear the Taliban could exploit expansive databases built by the U.S. and its allies during the Afghanistan occupation as tools for surveillance and repression. The developers intended the databases, which include biometrics for verifying identities, to promote law and order, government accountability, and modernization. A former Afghan government security official said the Afghan Personnel and Pay System has data on over 700,000 security forces members dating back four decades, including birth dates and phone numbers.
A different database stores fingerprints and iris and face scans, according to two contractors who worked on the database.
Ali Karimi, a critical information scholar at the University of Pennsylvania, says these resources could grant fundamentalist theocrats "the same capability as an average U.S. government agency when it comes to surveillance and interception."

[Free Download] CapCut Video Editor MOD APK v7.3.0-73016 (Premium) App for Android
It’s fantastic, I’ve developed as an editor during the past year that I’ve used this. However, I’ve noticed that, since I’ve bought a new smartphone and I’m unable to adjust the effects I was able to adjust on my old device (black lighting, the chromatic etc.). Fantastic app, however, one suggestion that I’d like to make to you is would you consider introducing an online search tool for effects that would help you find particular effects?
This app is fantastic! I am awestruck by the effects and how many modifications you can do to it. But, I’m using Chromebook, which can affect certain things. Sometimes, it doesn’t allow me to modify or delete a project. It’s very slow (although I’ve become accustomed to this) as well, when I access the templates section, the screen is blank- probably because it’s designed to be used with an iPad or phone. Apart from that, it’s fantastic.
Absolutely love this application It’s awesome! While it’s not the most sophisticated editor, it’s still a excellent application. There are numerous free effects that I was overwhelmed by initially and also auto velocity as well as audio effects, animated text as well as a host of other effects. There are numerous templates for free that you can use, or create your own template that you can share. There is an image watermark, however you can erase it at no cost. The only issue is that it’s not easy to place items in the center, and then and place them where you’d like. In other words I highly recommend! !
Excellent application! But, I have a problem. So, when you insert text, there are three options on the text: delete the text, edit it, copy it or increase the size. This can be very irritating if you wish to keep the text to be smaller, as you cannot move it without having to select one of the choices. There are buttons for every option which is why I’m not sure why this is there. Apart from that, an excellent application for editing videos and edits. But maybe not videos longer than seven minutes. It lags for me.
Excellent app, nothing more to say. Easy to use with lots of options (I still suggest KineMaster for those who are new, or light motion for more advanced functions). However, I would like to be able to use effects for text. For instance the effect of edginess on text would be stunning to look at, particularly for ideas I’ve got. Apart from that, excellent application. Additionally, it should be possible that you can adjust how fast stickers move there are some stickers which I’d love to have are too slow.
I love this application because you can edit all your content. One thing that can be fixed , which has happened to me is that you’re watching your editing before exporting it, which is why I am watching it but then it stops. the video stops. Then I hit the play button once more, so it starts playing and it brings my back to the beginning and the beginning of the movie. I’ve never had any further “bad things” that has occurred to me through this application, and I highly recommend it.
The GREAT editing application I’ve been using it for about an entire year, however I’ll give you my opinion This app comes with everything you need to edit and I mean EVERYTHING! However, I’m facing an issue. Every time I edit video or an image, especially if I have lots of overlays, images, and other text. It can be extremely slow. Laggy until the point that I don’t even know whether my editing is satisfactory. I must export it first. should there be a problem I’ll have to return to where I was to fix the issue. Fix this issue to ensure that the editing is correct. Thanks!
The app is a excellent and efficient application to edit. However, the latest update totally ruined the app and made it hard to edit text. I recommend you alter this to be capable of seeing the text we wrote and the words we have written. Another issue that is annoying is that the application limits the distance I can move text. Text must be arranged according to the length of the text. It would be a better application to be able to move the text around without having to stop the text.
I love this application to death, but when I’m editing which has more than one effect or lots of transitions, it causes the video to lag quite a bit. If I save it to my computer, I notice that the video isn’t the way it appeared. The beat may be off or the effects will not be visible in certain areas. In any case I’d highly recommend.
This app is awesome and I use it to make simple edits and videos. However when I returned to watch a video that I was made the previous day, it said that it could not find the video because it had been deleted or moved. I went to my gallery and the videos were there. I’m not sure the issue, but perhaps I’ll start from scratch. In the end, once you’re used to glitches and bugs, it’s a decent application. 7/10
4 is my number I like the most in general. I’ve been using this application for a while, and I didn’t really care about the delay if I choose to use the text option. However, there is a glitch that needs to be fixed. When I Export the text/overlay, it becomes too small and therefore, please fix this problem however, I still believe it’s an excellent app! Thank you! Please solve that bug I was discussing. It’s also not what you expected.
I absolutely love this app however, I encountered something I’ve never had before. Last week I was editing and the app seemed a little unresponsive. I was thinking it was going to remain that way for some time. However, when I created an entirely new project and it was still lagging while watching the video. It eventually threw me out of the application and says “Exits expectedly”. I filed a complaint, however, I’m also unable to export it. as it exports extremely slowly per number “1, 2 , 3, and on and on.” I deleted cache, cleared projects, deleted storage and upgraded the application. Help
It’s a great editing application! Although it will be a bit heavy when you don’t clean the catched files as well as background work if you do not regularly. If you use the website instead of the app , it could become very, and I’m not talking about extremely unstable, similar to the music. The app itself is fantastic and I would definitely recommend others to download it! It works on laptops, computers or phones! 🙂

Two proposals in the South Dakota Legislature would do away with teacher tenure in South Dakota's public schools. Governor Dennis Daugaard does it the wimpy way as part of HB 1234, letting currently tenured teachers keep their tenure while granting it to no future teachers (because young teachers don't vote... except with their feet). Rep. Betty Olson (R-28B/Prairie City) does it straight up, eliminating tenure for everyone right away with HB 1145.
To justify her bill, Rep. Olson cited in committee testimony Wednesday three letters from Harding County School Board members who say that without Rep. Olson's bill, they can't carry out their duty to provide a safe educational environment for their children:
Olson read letters from three members of the Harding County School Board, which described their reluctance to fire a tenured teacher with a history of bullying students. Board member Casey Olson's letter said the board suspended the teacher without pay, but the district's lawyer advised the teacher probably would win an appeal if fired. Instead, they gave the teacher a different assignment with less responsibility.
"The board decided that due to the tight budget, it could not afford to lose a lawsuit," Casey Olson's letter said. "Now, our district is saddled with a teacher most of the parents don't want in the same classroom as their kids and the board is nervously hoping another incident does not occur" [Josh Verges, "School Board: Eliminate Tenure," that Sioux Falls paper, 2012.01.26].
Read that again: a majority of the Harding County School Board believes that a teacher is bullying students. The Harding County School Board is allowing that alleged bully to remain in contact with students.
These Harding County School Board members clearly misunderstand Rep. Olson's bill, state law, and their own duty.
- HB 1145 does not change the rules for firing teachers. It only changes the rules for not hiring teachers back for another year.
- State law allows school boards to fire teachers at any time for just cause. Boards can nuke teachers on the spot for "breach of contract, poor performance, incompetency, gross immorality, unprofessional conduct, insubordination, neglect of duty, or the violation of any policy or regulation of the school district." I'm pretty sure bullying students falls under more than a couple of those criteria.
- If students are in real danger, the board should be acting now. If parents and other staff know there is an adult predator in their school, the solution is not to repeal due process for every teacher in the state: the solution is to replace their lily-livered school board members with adults who take children's safety seriously.
Harding County doesn't have to wait for the end of the school year to remove this threat from their school district. If they have evidence of this bullying, that evidence will stand up in the board hearing and district court hearing and appeals provided under current South Dakota law.
And if the board doesn't have evidence sufficient to withstand legal scrutiny, then too bad. We do not take due process away from the vast majority of decent teachers to grease the skids for a few school board members who can't work up the courage to do their jobs.

Today’s economy isn’t very friendly for the pickup driver, but many people’s professions don’t allow them to switch vehicles. If you’re currently driving around a gas guzzler, there are five tips to follow in order to reduce your pain at the pump.
Let Your Buddy Catch His Own Ride
Or, at least, double check your trunk and make sure you’re not carrying too much junk in the trunk. According to government studies, reducing your load by one hundred pounds increases your gas mileage by more than two percent.
Remember way back when, in the distant 80’s, that the President reduced the speed limits on national highways to 55 mph? The move annoyed interstate truckers, but it reduced lines at the pump. It turns out 55 mph is the ideal speed to travel in order to get the most mileage out of your vehicle.
That doesn’t mean you need to move like a snail in the far right lane on the highway, but try not to go over the speed limit unless you have to do so. Studies show that every five miles you go over 50 translates to roughly twenty-five cents more a gallon. And that figure probably isn’t decreasing any time soon.
Take A Chill Pill
Racing to cut off the jerk who wouldn’t let you merge might feel good in the short-term, but driving aggressively is dangerous and can waste your gas by 30%. This is the easiest way to save money: just relax. If relaxing is not your forte, just remind yourself that the girl who moved like a ninja in order to steal your parking spot is spending way more on gas than you.
Don’t Be Idle
So you couldn’t come up with an excuse not to pick up your aunt’s brother’s cousin at the airport? First, you should have pleaded jury duty, and second, park in a call waiting area and shut off your car. Letting your car engine idle can waste a quarter gallon’s worth of gas every hour. Are you using air conditioning? Idling with the air conditioning on can waste half a gallon.
Use the Cruise
If you frequently travel on the highway, using cruise control can help you maintain a constant speed, which will save money. Just don’t forget to monitor speed limit signs while you cruise along, or your money saving endeavor might cost you a speeding ticket.

We have also drawn a comparison between these screen types; so you can make an informed choice. Without further delay, let’s get into it.
LED, QLED, and New QLED - A Complete Description
Before you check out what technology is ideal to meet your needs, let’s first learn about them one by one so you can get a better understanding.
LED TV - The Most Affordable
Are you searching for a budget-friendly flat-screen television for your space? Well, in that case, LED TVs might be the best bet.
Let’s begin with the basics!! LED stands for Light Emitting Diode, which refers to small little bulbs that give off light and color. As the definition suggests, LED TVs mainly comprise thousands of RGB light-emitting diodes to produce millions of colors when mixed in varying proportions.
LED technology is further divided into two major types - In-Plane Switching (IPS) and Vertical Alignment (VA). IPS offers better viewing angles, while VA provides better contrast levels. These TVs offer value for money and are best considered if you’re on a tighter budget.
- Lower energy consumption
- Longer lifespan
- Easy Maintenance
- Wider and better viewing
QLED TV - The Middle-Ground
The next one on the list is QLED. The main takeaway about this new technology is that a QLED TV is just a LED TV with quantum dots. These dots are microscopic molecules that when hit by light emit their own differently colored light. QLED mainly refers to the Quantum Light-Emitting Diode, and it features nano bulbs to emit light.
Earlier when this technology was launched, these nano light bulbs used to be placed side by side to emit light and color; however, later on, Samsung came up with its own version and started using quantum LEDs along with the Quantum dot color filter.
- Higher resolution
- Vibrant colors
- High upscaling capability
- Higher brightness
Neo QLED TV - The Recent One
New QLED TV is nothing but an upgraded version of QLED, released in 2021 by Samsung. While the technology still sticks to the same foundation of having a quantum dot layer, it mainly replaces those LEDs for Mini LED.
It features thousands of tiny, finer, sand-like LED light bulbs in the backlight panel to give off extra vibrant light and colors. This technology simply offers more precise control than it could from its previous LED arrays, as LEDs used this time are a lot smaller. It further offers better control, accurate graduation from dark to light, and less light bleed.
- A wider range of brightness, up to billion colors
- Better contrast ratio
- Precision in color and light control
LED Vs QLED Vs Neo QLED - Which is Better?
Now that you are fully aware of the LED, QLED, and Neo QLED, it’s time to check out the best option that’s worth spending for. Well, honestly speaking, there’s no definitive answer for the same, as it all depends on the buyers’ intent, budget, and requirements.
Each has its own advantages and disadvantages; hence, it’s important to decide which one is right for you. LED TVs are the cheapest option and they're great for budget-conscious buyers. They have a good picture quality and they're very energy efficient, making them a good choice for those who want an affordable TV.
QLED TVs offer better picture quality than LED TVs but they're more expensive. They also tend to be more energy efficient than LED TVs, which is a plus if you care about the environment. This technology offers a brighter appearance than LEDs and can handle darker scenes better.
Neo QLED is the newest technology that uses quantum dots. It's brighter than LEDs and QLEDs and offers slightly better performance The technology features an ultra-bright light appearance and greater color accuracy than other types of LED lights. They use less power than other types of TVs, making them energy-efficient. Moreover, these TVs have an ultra-fast response time, which means that they can display images crisper and smoother than any other types of TVs available on the market.
So, that’s all about the LED Vs QLED Vs Neo QLED. We hope our guide and research will help you make an appropriate choice. No matter whatever technology you’ll settle on, make sure it caters to your requirements and fits your budget well.

I sit in the center of disparate systems with the intention of creating a sense of harmony in the overlap of my inner and outside worlds. While the tension of my real landscape takes its toll on me, I am committed to accessing creativity and resilience. Sure, I hear commuter traffic, school buses, and construction trucks through the walls of home on this busy road. But I also hear the sweet calls of wrens, cardinals, and sparrows. It is in the studio where I attempt to access my imagined landscape. My hands sort out the various inner world tensions with materials and transform them into something tangible, an art installation.
Visual stimulation isn’t the only sense at work when I observe the external world. I am also absorbing sensory information through my nose, ears, and skin. This process impacts my whole being—even my nervous system jump-starts a variety of circuits. I’m simultaneously connecting things like time, light, space, form, atmosphere, and movement. It feels natural for me to translate my full-body response with installation art, as it is an experiential art form. A roadside art installation called the Dover Traffic Spiral is the response to my sensory overload, an attempt to transform my perspective of a landscape full of traffic noise, blinking beacons, and energy flow. I have often wondered where all the cars come from and where are they going? Its concrete surface spans 15 feet and angles toward the road in the front garden. There are two swirls originating from a center marked by a reflective green traffic light lens. The dark gray swirl is topped with almost 250 toy cars embedded in resin. I call them my “carCobbles.” They’re laid out to appear to be driving into the center and then spiraling out. I troweled the surface of the other concrete swirl to look like a sidewalk. Its outermost perimeter is randomly sprinkled with stone bits to reference the jagged edges of spinning solar systems, vortices, and whirlpools. The “carCobbles” are traveling individually together on the cosmic spiral of life.
I approach the idea of a landscape with respect and awe. The landscape sustains me as an artist, gardener, and activist. I make this known, starting at home, at the place called the Garden of Sustenance. It is an urban-garden-art-environment. The garden shares an edge with the sidewalk, road, and in essence, the community, so it is both public and private, a place where multiple systems such as city operations, neighborhood, and the environment, blend and blur. It informs, inspires, and makes a statement. My vision encourages an alternative to the status quo. Repurposing used materials minimize the environmental impact of our consumerist culture. Whenever and wherever I have the opportunity to build an art installation, the idea of landscape as a generous resource is at the root of the project.
The urban landscape of my home is a place where an edge divides the city from nature, where flowers and vegetables meet concrete and tar. On one side, I feel resilient, and on the other, I feel vulnerable. As an artist, I believe it is my job to be a conduit for inspiration and creativity. I am aware its impact can unify and empower, so I create a visual that can lift me out of a conflicting emotional state. I built a fence to look like a blend of how the energy of traffic mixes with the seasonal cycles of the garden. I felt a momentum. I collected metal circles from the scrapyard to reference cycles of nature and the motion of vehicles. I named it: Considering the Space Between Road and Garden. For a few months, I wired the circles together to signposts. Neighbors and commuters saw the creative process in action and felt inspired to seek out their own metal circles to add to the collection. The personal art project sent out a ripple of shared enthusiasm. People in cars beeped when driving by. They still do.
With a collage series called From Here to There, From There to Here, Again, I used a mapping process out of necessity. The landmarks and the spaces between them helped me to determine how to navigate through inner chaos. My life at the time was a mess. In the comfort of my studio, I pored through a collection of photos, drawings, personal papers, and selected photos of known destinations, familiar trees, roads, and power lines. I cut and tore them up and arranged them in a new order. The collage series became my landscape of memory, of what it was like as a daughter with a debilitating injury traveling back and forth to visit mom, somewhere with Alzheimer’s, while grieving the death of dad. I felt suspended and without gravity. I felt no sense of chronological order. For a while, time, place, and memory were lost in the abyss. Using images of landscapes gave me direction.
I wanted to observe what happens between the end of winter and the beginning of spring to help me clarify the transformative process of death and change. I wanted to know: what actually happens between the end and the beginning? The art installation took place in a ginkgo tree during the transition phase from April into May. I called it Winter Dies, Spring Emerges: Ginkgo Tree. The ginkgo biloba is one of the oldest living species of trees on earth, a perfect example of longevity. Climbing up the trunk, I wove garlands through the bare winter branches, which referenced Tibetan prayer flags. However, mine was paper, painted black, and covered with black sand. They had been the pages of my own dream journals, a record of cosmic conversations. They blew in the wind, drooped in the rain, and faded in the sun while the bare branches of the ginkgo, covered with little nubs, sprouted green leaves of spring. I removed the faded “dream strings” and prepared a ceremonial burn. I took the process further and mixed the ashes with compost and then spread the fertile mixture in a circle on the ground below the ginkgo. I topped the circle with fallen flower petals that had been collected from the base of flowering fruit trees. I responded to what I had witnessed: the persistent, energetic cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.
When I encounter something unexpected, I take notice. I revisit the feel of these “aha” moments to make art in an attempt to evoke something in the viewer. The Blue Spiral project at a public beach was made from a collection of bright blue plastic newspaper bags that I planted individually in sand divots. The blue spiral expanded out about 25 feet, and as the tide came in, waves animated the flaccid bags like levers closing and opening. Beach-goers gathered to express joy, scorn, and curiosity. Our lives, stories, and enthusiasm for that day were a shared experience. People interacting became volunteers to assist with the removal of blue bags from the sand and sea. Together we enjoyed conversations about Fibonacci, the environment, the tides, art, where people are visiting from, and what excites us about the sea. Their responses to the unexpected spiral at the beach renewed in me the power of art, curiosity, and inspiration.
I had set aside a collection of paper-based materials for the right landscape setting to bring closure to a decade-long process. The opportunity unexpectedly took place in a gallery. My plan was to create an art installation of an outdoor tidal zone in an inside space—to have the tidal zone encroach the viewing space; to have viewers encounter unidentifiable yet familiar organic forms; to include reflection, an important part of modifying perspective; to contemplate what had been abandoned by the sea after being pummeled in the turbulence of waves. These are the metaphors I borrowed to make tangible the process of transformation. To make this vision come alive, I covered the raised gallery floor with sand, stones, and seaweed that expanded over the edge and unexpectedly into the viewers’ space. I arranged my paper sculptures in groupings on the sand. The paper was repurposed and came from a collection of personal journals and sketchbooks. To alter their original shape and context, I sorted, shredded, and transformed the pages into gut-like pulp forms and papier mâché bivalves. This art installation was called It Was One Thing After Another, After Another. It could be viewed through the window that reflected the buildings from across the street and from inside the gallery when sunlight entered through the large window and made more reflections. The experience from this interior perspective appeared as if the inside tidal zone extended outdoors. The process continues as I am still reflecting on this recent art installation.

I didn’t spend more than two or three hours away from my daughter when she was a baby, and later on, a toddler.
It’s not that I was obsessed with her, because I wasn’t – but I didn’t have the opportunity to do anything on my own because my husband was working all the time and we had pretty much no help from friends and family.
It was a lot of work, but I appreciated the fact that I bonded with her from the get-go and got to nourish that relationship for the years to come. I’m a mom of two, too. I gave birth to my son when my daughter was a little over two.
I thought I didn’t have the time to do anything I wanted to do when I was a mom of one, but when I gave birth to my son, I couldn’t even go to the bathroom on my own. I’m pretty sure I didn’t spend a minute away from the two of them for years and years.
God, I was exhausted. “I can’t wait for them to grow up and leave me alone,” I’d think to myself, overridden by guilt because I was wishing for my children to be away from me.
I felt like a horrible mother, but I couldn’t escape the fact that I was tired of picking up after them, running around the apartment trying to get them dressed, and spending every moment of the waking hour with them.
I felt as though I lost a part of my identity when I became a mother because I didn’t have the time to focus on my wants, needs, and desires.
I was tired of crawling on the floor every night, searching for rogue puzzle pieces, building blocks, and figurines. I was weary of finding glitter within different crevices of my body when I didn’t have the time to shower. I was overwhelmed, overworked, and so over everything.
But here’s the thing, though. I never for a second stopped to appreciate the fact that I was watching them grow up before my eyes. I never stopped to appreciate the fact that I got to witness every little milestone, every change, and every new word.
And one day, before I even figured out what was going on, my kids grew up. I watched them grow up, but I somehow overlooked the moment they stopped following me around, demanding my attention, and seeking my company. I watched them grow up, but I somehow missed the part where I started missing them.
I miss my kids when they’re not with me. I never thought I’d become one of those moms who annoy everyone with a million photos: “Look, here’s my little Benny climbing a tree. He’s so big and strong!” and “Here’s my little princess Bella picking flowers. So precious, huh?”
I finally have the time to get coffee with my friends, make plans that don’t require me to pack Barbies and building blocks, and have entire conversations without getting interrupted. I finally have time for myself, away from Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol. I finally have the time – but I miss my kids.
I miss them when they’re asleep. I know that sounds strange coming from the mouth of a mother who prayed for her children to grow up and go to daycare, to school, or anywhere that’s away from her.
I go to bed every night thinking how lucky I am to have gotten to that point where I don’t have to rock them to sleep, read them bedtime stories, or sing to them. I know I’m lucky, but I don’t feel lucky. I feel like I’ve lost a huge part of myself.
I catch myself sneaking out of my bed, walking on my tippy toes to not wake my husband up, and taking a peek at them sleeping safe and sound. I love watching over them when they’re asleep because I know they’d chase me out of the room if they were awake. I’m unwanted these days because they’re too big to hang out with Mommy.
I miss the feeling of being needed, wanted, and appreciated. I know one of the reasons I was exhausted when they were little was because they were looking for me all the time.
I couldn’t get a moment for myself because I was the one they’d scream for when they were happy, sad, confused, or frustrated. I was the one they’d search for when they wanted help with something. I was the one to answer a million questions they had about the world.
Nowadays, I am the one who annoys them the most. I am the one who gets the side eyes and eye rolls. The one who gets the shorter end of the stick every time I try to talk to them. I’m serious – my children literally shush me away.
I miss kissing them, squishing their chubby cheeks, and giggling with them before bedtime. I have to be honest, being on the receiving end of their affection was the best part about spending so much time with them when they were little.
I adored being smothered with smooches all the time because that was the one thing that kept me going. I was the happiest when I was snuggling with them after a hard day, watching dumb kids’ shows, and giggling for no reason. I miss those moments more than words can say.
I miss being able to kiss them without them going “Ewww, Mom!” and wiping themselves right away. Mommy Leprosy doesn’t sound real, but trust me, the hurt from not being able to smooch your children might be the most real thing I’ve ever experienced as a mother.
God, sometimes I even miss them when they’re right there next to me. I remember the times I wished for them to stop bothering me and I flinch. I can’t believe I didn’t appreciate the moments I spent with them when they were little. I can’t believe I didn’t realize what awaited me.
I miss them more than I’ve missed anyone or anything, but I remind myself to treasure every stage of childhood because I’m probably going to experience the same light-bulb moment every few years.

The Kerala Government has announced stricter restrictions in response to the confirmation of one additional case of Nipah virus infection on Friday, bringing the total number of cases to six.
Two people died due to the virus infection in the latest outbreak.
Currently, the list of confirmed Nipah patients’ contacts comprises 1,080 people, with 130 new additions on Friday. Among these, 327 are healthcare workers.
Besides Kozhikode, there are 29 people on the contact list who reside in neighboring districts: 22 in Malappuram, three in Kannur, three in Thrissur, and one in Wayanad.
Health Minister Veena George has informed that the number of people on the contact list is likely to increase.
All educational institutes in Kozhikode district will remain closed for a week until next Sunday in view of the Nipah virus outbreak reported from the region, the state government announced.
Meanwhile, the health department officials said that they have achieved a breakthrough in the fight against Nipah after they succeeded in establishing the virus infection in the index case on Friday.
The health department confirmed that the index case, a 47-year-old person, died of Nipah on 30 August.
IQRAA Hospital in Kozhikode, where the 47-year-old died, had collected his throat swab after his demise and forwarded it to NIV-Pune. Subsequently, the second victim, who succumbed to Nipah on 11 September, contracted the virus during a visit to the same hospital. Furthermore, two family members of the 47-year-old, a healthcare worker at the hospital, and another individual seeking treatment at the same facility, tested positive. This suggests that the virus transmission this time started with the 47-year-old.

The Advantages of Constructing an ADU for Your Residence
Ever since the onset of the housing crisis in the United States, Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have emerged as a vital solution, providing a much-needed boost to the rental market and addressing the scarcity of housing supply. ADUs have proven to be a highly effective means of introducing new housing options to the market, as they offer lower construction costs and quicker completion times compared to traditional homes. In this article, we delve into the realm of Accessory Dwelling Units, shedding light on the myriad benefits they bestow upon homeowners and communities across the nation.
ADUs and the Admiration of Urban Planners
The prevalent challenge in the United States housing landscape lies in the limited availability of land within cities, impeding the construction of new homes. ADUs, however, present a viable solution to this predicament. These housing units are considerably smaller in size compared to the typical 1,200 square foot house plan, and can even be erected in the backyards of homes situated in cities like Portland, Austin, Encinitas, San Francisco, Palo Alto, as well as various other locations across the country.
Urban planners hold a deep appreciation for Accessory Dwelling Units due to their capacity to promptly address the critical issue of housing scarcity in areas where it is acutely felt. In California, for instance, numerous cities, including Los Angeles, are simplifying the process of ADU construction, recognizing them as an indispensable remedy for the housing crisis.
Since 2016, Portland, Oregon has been dedicated to facilitating the construction of ADUs on residential properties. The city actively collaborates with homeowners, encouraging them to build energy-efficient ADUs that face the alleys, thereby aligning with the goals outlined in Portland’s 2012 Climate Action Plan. By doing so, Portland remains steadfast in its commitment to environmental sustainability while simultaneously contributing to the resolution of the housing predicament.
Portland is not alone in its endorsement of ADU development. Mendocino County, for instance, recently published a comprehensive set of architectural plans, available for free on their website, enabling individuals interested in constructing ADUs to access and utilize these plans in their endeavors.
Beyond their contributions to addressing the housing crisis, ADUs also hold great appeal for families with aging parents or relatives. These additional living spaces afford families the opportunity to create separate “homes” for their parents, in-laws, or family members, without the need for them to be physically integrated into the main house.
In essence, Accessory Dwelling Units have emerged as a powerful solution to the housing crisis, presenting numerous advantages to homeowners and communities alike. By embracing ADUs, cities can effectively overcome the challenges of limited land availability, while simultaneously fostering sustainable practices and accommodating the diverse needs of families.
The Economic Advantages of Accessory Dwelling Units
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) not only offer a multitude of benefits to homeowners and the cities in which they are constructed but also provide significant economic advantages, including the potential to increase the local community’s tax base without expanding urban sprawl.
Major cities throughout the United States have experienced rapid growth since the 1970s, leading to an increased demand for infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and housing to accommodate the influx of new residents. However, with the introduction of ADUs, cities can avoid the need for extensive urban sprawl by utilizing existing housing footprints to incorporate additional housing units. This approach proves particularly beneficial as it allows for the expansion of the local community without encroaching upon undeveloped lands.
Furthermore, ADUs contribute to expediting the sale of vacant homes. Prospective buyers are often enticed by the idea of offsetting their mortgage payments by renting out the ADU located on the property they intend to purchase. Consequently, the presence of an ADU can enhance the marketability of a property, making it more appealing to potential buyers and facilitating a faster sales process.
Fostering Supportive Family Environments
As previously mentioned, one of the significant advantages of constructing an ADU on a homeowner’s property is the ability to create a comfortable living space for aging parents or relatives. Given the increasing lifespan of individuals in today’s society, providing a separate “home” for elderly family members has become crucial. ADUs fulfill this need by offering a private and independent living arrangement, enabling aging parents or relatives to maintain their autonomy while residing close to their loved ones.
In addition to supporting aging family members, ADUs also address the growing trend of adult children in their thirties who continue to live with their parents. Recent studies have shown a notable increase in the number of young adults opting to reside in their parental homes. By constructing an Accessory Dwelling Unit, parents can provide their adult children with a self-contained living space, granting them a sense of independence while remaining within close proximity to their family support network.
By incorporating an ADU on their property, such as a Casita, parents can offer their adult children a comfortable living environment while ensuring privacy and autonomy. This arrangement fosters a supportive family dynamic, allowing parents and children to maintain close bonds while facilitating personal growth and development.
In summary, Accessory Dwelling Units present homeowners and communities with numerous economic advantages. They allow for the expansion of housing options without increasing urban sprawl, contribute to the expedited sale of properties, and enable families to create supportive living environments for both aging parents and adult children. The utilization of ADUs proves to be a wise and beneficial choice for homeowners seeking to enhance their financial standing while promoting familial harmony.
Varieties of Accessory Dwelling Units
In the year 2023, the popular perception of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) primarily revolves around cottages or tiny homes that can be conveniently transported to any property. However, it is essential to acknowledge that ADUs can assume various forms beyond these stereotypical images. They encompass a diverse range of options, including garage apartments, casitas, tiny homes, and micro-apartments.
While there are numerous benefits that homeowners derive from having an ADU on their property, it is imperative to highlight the advantage that an Accessory Dwelling Unit can offer as a rental property. By utilizing ADUs as Airbnb rentals or long-term rental units, homeowners, particularly retirees who have experienced declining income since the 2008 recession, can generate additional revenue streams.
One notable benefit of having an ADU on one’s property is the convenience it provides in terms of managing the rental. Unlike traditional rental properties that may require owners to commute across town to address issues or carry out maintenance tasks, an ADU situated on the homeowner’s land allows for effortless management. Homeowners can handle the Accessory Dwelling Unit themselves, eliminating the typical hassles associated with remote property management.
Cost Considerations and Timelines
The cost of building an ADU varies depending on the specific type desired, with prices ranging from as low as $20,000 to $100,000 or even more. An article recently published sheds light on the median cost of constructing an ADU in the Portland area, which stands at approximately $90,000. Homeowners embarking on an ADU project should thoroughly research all associated expenses and enlist the services of an experienced contractor well-versed in constructing such units.
Once a homeowner decides to proceed with building an ADU on their property, they should be prepared for a waiting period, as the timeframe for completion can extend up to 36 weeks, contingent upon the regulations and processes of the city or jurisdiction in which the ADU is located.
Looking ahead to the future, it is highly likely that we will witness a surge in the prevalence of ADUs in residential backyards throughout the United States in the coming years and beyond. Their affordability as a means of increasing housing supply, coupled with the wide array of benefits they offer to homeowners and communities alike, positions ADUs as a promising solution in the quest for accessible housing options.

I recently received a question from a member in my online community, which is attached to my online course, about how to get a child to wear a mask. I know many of us have struggled with tolerating face masks, since we’re still in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Even though the pandemic started in March of 2020, masks weren’t really considered needed or required until later in the spring and summer of 2020. And then all of a sudden in the United States places like schools, churches, airplanes, and hospitals all required anyone 2 and over to wear a face covering. There is no mask mandate for children under 2 as a mask is still considered a suffocation risk at that point.
I do know that parents can get medical exemptions about masks from their child’s physician in many cases, but that little slip of paper might not work in places like airplanes and I would not want to just risk showing up because it seems like airplanes are very strict.
But I also know as a registered nurse and a behavior analyst that anything can be desensitized, including kids wearing masks. I have previously done video blogs and podcasts on desensitizing dental work, getting haircuts and more. In my new book, Turn Autism Around, chapter 13 is all about desensitization. I set up the steps for how to re-pair bath time which suddenly became aversive for a child.
Tolerating Face Masks Using the Turn Autism Around Approach
So the first step of the four step Turn Autism Around approach is assessment. We have to look at, is this child able to wear a mask or a face covering at any point? Are they tolerating other things like wearing a hat or wearing headphones? Will they tolerate teeth brushing? And you might think, well, that doesn’t have anything to do with it. But actually it does because kids that can’t tolerate face masks or won’t wear headphones probably are sensitive to different foods, clothing, and textures.
The second step is to make a plan. And this shouldn’t just be a plan like, hey, I’m going to force my kid to wear a mask on our way to daycare. That’s not a plan because if a child is pushing you away, is ripping off the mask, or is crying, that is not a good procedure to be using. We don’t want a child or any human to be upset at any point, let alone for minutes or hours of a day. It’s not helpful. And I know that we can scale it way back and teach a child how to wear a face covering if and when needed.
Table Time for Autism Face Masks
A big part of the Turn Autism Around approach is to pair up a table and chairs. So if it’s a very little child, we want to pair up a small sized table and chairs. If it’s a larger child, a card table. And we want to make it comfortable for both the adult and the child. So if it is a very small table, you don’t have to sit in a child sized chair. You can carry it over to a sofa where the adult could sit on the sofa and the child could sit in a child sized chair.
So we want to pair up the table, not just for language and learning skills and imitation and matching, which provides a nice structure for those kinds of tasks, but also to teach and desensitize other things. So at a table I have worked on desensitization to haircuts or looking in the mouth or headphones.
Types of Masks
One thing to look at is there are different types of masks, obviously, and face shields. Now sometimes depending on your location in the world, maybe face shields aren’t acceptable. But in the United States where my son has gone, face shields have been an acceptable face covering for him.
I have found that face shields are better for longer duration tasks, like when he volunteers at the food bank, for instance. Also the nice thing about face shields is that I can see his lips and if I’m wearing one, he can see mine.
If he starts to get unhappy or slightly agitated, he will show it in his face. But if his face is covered up, we won’t be able to see it. So face shields, or even clear face masks, might be a really good thing for you to invest in. Maybe give one to the speech therapist and your child. Because a lot of our kids need to look at mouths in order to see what you’re saying.
The other important thing we’re going to use when we systematically desensitize or pair masks is positive reinforcement. If we’re pushing too hard and getting crying or swiping or pushing you away then we’ve pushed too far. The demands are too high. Reinforcement is too low. We also want to use imitation, which is so powerful. Don’t just get one face mask, get a bunch so that the child can wear a face mask and you can wear a face mask while you’re practicing or out in the community.
I would get two masks of the same color. If your child is into characters or trains, you can also search on the internet and find some masks with those things on them.
How to Get a Child to Wear a Mask
If I were sitting down at a table with a child who was not into masks at all, I would not just be going in and trying to attach the mask to their ears. They will probably start crying then. What I would do instead is I would have my mask and his mask. I would be at a table where he’s comfortable getting lots of reinforcement, maybe watching a favorite video on an iPad or a portable DVD player or a TV. And then I might say, okay, we’re going to practice wearing our masks.
And I might put the mask up to my face for a count of 10. Maybe he’ll follow. You can also use a mirror or video modeling. But at first hold the mask up for just a few seconds.
Then I’m going to help him attach or I’m going to show him how to attach the mask. Again it’s going to be for seconds then for minutes – unless the child’s already tolerating a mask. We might have to set timers or give more reinforcement or try a face shield if that’s permitted where you’re going.
In general, we just need to get into the idea that we can desensitize, we can pair or re-pair anything and we can help our kids be comfortable with all kinds of procedures or new demands that weren’t part of our lives just two years ago.
So hopefully these couple techniques might help you move forward with helping your child or clients to wear masks or face shields. If you would like to learn more about how you can join our online course and community, you can attend a free online workshop at marybarbera.com/workshop. Hope to see you there!

Employing the services of a social media management company is a smart move for a variety of reasons. If you outsource this work to an experienced company, you will be able to concentrate on running your business, and the company that manages your social media accounts will keep up with the most recent developments on social networking sites.
A company that specialises in social media management will also be able to monitor and participate in significant industry conversations. Employing a third-party company to handle the management of your social media profiles can help you save both time and money. Before you hire a company to manage your social media accounts, here are some things to think about.
It is not necessary to have a large starting budget in order to launch a social media management company. In point of fact, it is possible to run a business from the comfort of one’s own home without the need to employ a large workforce. Your computer and the management software for social media platforms are the tools you require. You are able to save money for other, more significant expenses while working from anywhere you choose.
You also have the option of working from home, which will free up more of your time for you to concentrate on making money and saving money for other costs. As soon as you make the decision to move forward with the company, you will be well on your way to establishing yourself as an authority in the field of social media management.
Hiring a social media management company will make your business stand out in a crowd. This is an excellent option for those who find managing social media a challenge. Social media is becoming an integral part of marketing and networking. With millions of profiles and corporate pages, keeping track of them all can be challenging. By hiring a social media management company, you won’t have to spend hours trawling through all of these sites and worry about what to post. Your company’s social media presence will be maintained and thriving.
A social media management company will take charge of the social media marketing efforts of another business. They will manage content, promote it, and publish it on all social media platforms.
A social media management company should understand your brand and business. A social media manager will develop content strategy and create engaging posts that are optimized for engagement. Social media engagement is crucial in building a successful business and increasing brand awareness is an important step in driving traffic to the website.
In addition, increasing the number of followers on social media will also boost your company’s word of mouth, which accounts for twenty to fifty percent of purchasing decisions. It’s important to make sure you’re sharing relevant content and not boosting competitors.
Another important part of social media management is running advertisements. While it’s important to focus on organic content, social media advertising is essential for the long-term success of your business. Advertising can boost engagement and help you reach a larger audience. The social media management company will also handle advertising on your behalf. The ads will allow you to target a specific audience and increase your brand’s visibility. With these two factors combined, you’ll have a powerful social media management strategy.

The involvement of Uganda Cranes Head Coach Milutin Sredojevic alias Micho, in a high-level delegation led by Odrek Rwabwogo, on a visit to State House, has raised eyebrows among Ugandans, particularly on social media.
The delegation which is believed to have been put together by P.A.C.E.I.D (Presidential Advisory Committee on Exports and Industrial Development), led by Odrek Rwabogo, is said to have met the president on matters concerning coffee promotion.
Rwabogo’s P.A.C.E.I.D has been under criticism after they successfully secured funding of up to Shs37 billion for the promotion of the coffee sector.
Netizens could not hide their shock, after photos circulated on social media, showed Micho posing as part of the delegation.
Many took to Twitter and questioned Micho’s role in the high-level delegation that was thought to discuss the coffee promotion.
One Twitter user, Innocent Jr Robin, tweeted, “What is Coach Micho, the Serbian Wolf, doing here? I thought he would be out there training the boys.”
Gava Charles, another social media user, jokingly commented, “Coach Micho? Man, are you going to coach coffee too?”
Geno Eric asked, “Isn’t that Coach Micho standing second from the right? 😬”
Papilo humorously remarked, “Coach Micho is into coffee now? 😂”
Last week, some Opposition MPs expressed anger after failed attempts to halt the allocation of Shs37 billion to Rwabwogo’s committee.
During the parliamentary session, MP Muwanga Kivumbi presented a report, revealing that P.A.C.E.I.D, headed by Rwabwogo, had appeared before the Budget Committee during a retreat at Munyonyo Resort.
Rwabwogo informed the committee that his Coffee Value Chain Development project required a budget of US$100 million.
Consequently, Rwabwogo’s project received an allocation of US$10 million (approximately Shs37 billion) in the budget.
MP Muwanga raised concerns about why such a substantial amount for a private investment was charged directly to the consolidated fund.
However, Rwabogo defended the allocation through his official Twitter account;
“There is no ‘Odrekvote’ in UGbudget. I head a 44-member committee and Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA) sits in. We drive 13 agro- Industrial sectors to raise USD6bn exports by 2028. The coffee fund to underwrite invoices is for 21 coffee firms.
“Uganda firms have had limited market presence for years. 5 of the 13 sectors now have orders of up to USD550 million and we have created a revolving fund for firms to help underwrite invoices to help them supply these orders. If you want to help, don’t listen to negativity,” Rwabogo’s tweet read.
We are yet to establish what Micho’s role is in the delegation.

I am enjoying the new job and the downtown Denver scene. Within a block of the office there are five coffee shops, four sandwich joints, a Chipotle, a flower vendor, a blind bum that likes to sing Isley Brothers tunes and the always lively 16th Street Mall. The mall is usually teaming with business executives connected to their ear piece cell phones like Lobot, statuesque women in six inch heels walking with mean swaggers, homeless panhandlers and disheveled, mentally ill crazies that yell and carry signs. The latter are by far the most entertaining. Yesterday a wild-eyed maniac sporting a wig that looked like a dumpster diving reward was walking down the mall with a sign that read “GESUS LOVES U.” He nearly got ran over by a shuttle bus as he was thrusting said sign into the faces of a nice looking gentleman and his two younger daughters who were participating in Bring Your Child To Work Day. This morning as I was looping around the building to the parking garage, a filthy homeless drug addict was flashing a two-way sign on the corner which read “HILLARY IS FIDEL” on one side and “JFK SHOT MARILYN” on the other. It was comforting to learn that even homeless drug addicts hate Hillary.
Today while meeting with a client at the downtown Tattered Cover, an unsavory character with crack pipe burns about his hands stopped me while exiting the store and asked for spare change in exchange for reciting one of his poems. I am opposed to giving street urchins any form of compensation (it is not in my nature to enable) so I agreed to the transaction with the caveat that if I did not like his poem he would receive no payment. He agreed, pulled out his mangled spiral notebook and began reciting prose. The poem was surprisingly good, rife with inflections of loss, pain, happiness, despair and hope. I gave him 47 cents, told him to stay off the rock and to keep working the poetry angle. He said thanks and then told me he had to catch a bus that was taking him to a drug test. After his drug test I am sure he was meeting up somewhere with his nymphomaniac girlfriend that has ‘Fuck My Whore Ass’ and ‘Fuck My Whore Pussy’ tattooed on her hips.
It would suck to be homeless in Denver right now. It’s goddamn cold. I do not give panhandlers anything for two reasons:
- I never carry cash or change. I am all about the cashless society written about in the book of Revelation.
- I prefer not to enable addiction. I am not saying all panhandlers are addicts, but a good number of them are and I would rather not be chipping in on a bottle of Thunderbird (unless they’re splitting it with me).
It is not to say that I am unsympathetic to the plight of downtrodden. Our society casts aside those that are mentally ill, unemployed and otherwise down on their luck. I look at the homeless and see tragedy. I am quick to remind myself that if I chose some different paths in life, I might be on that street corner self-medicating and begging for relief, too (whether it be in the form of cheap wine or a half-eaten meatball sandwich that someone tossed in the trash).
I do not ignore beggars like most people do. I acknowledge them, tell them no and go on about my business. I have had some funny exchanges with panhandlers over the years and here are but a few:
Beggar: Spare change, sir?
Beggar: C’mon, man.
Beggar: Do you not have any or do you not want to give me any?
Me: Pick one.
Beggar: I need a dollar, man. Give me a dollar.
Me: I do not have a dollar.
Beggar: …looks the future wife up and down… With a lady like that I can see why.
Beggar: …leans over railing of an outdoor cafe and points to my garnish… Hey man, are you gonna eat that?

Together with Konstantin Gregor.
In this short talk we want to point out some insights we gained using Apache Flink in production. After having used it for quite some time now, we share some strategies we found helpful. Two of the points we are going to cover are resilience and monitoring. Furthermore, we touch on delivery guarantees and the integration of Flink with other Big Data frameworks.

Postural sway is defined as the movement of a body's center of mass within the base of support to maintain postural equilibrium. Deficits in postural sway are present after ACL injury; however, current evidence linking it to future injury risk is unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine if postural sway deficits persist after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). The hypothesis tested was that after ACLR, patients who return to sport (RTS) would demonstrate differences in postural sway compared to control (CTRL) subjects. Fifty-six subjects with unilateral ACLR released to RTS, and 42 uninjured CTRL subjects participated. Dynamic postural sway was assessed and 3-way (2. ×. 2. ×. 2) ANOVA was used to analyze the variables. A side. ×. group. ×. sex (. p=. 0.044) interaction in postural sway was observed. A side. ×. group analysis also revealed an interaction (. p=. 0.04) however, no effect of sex was observed (. p=. 0.23). Analysis within the ACLR cohort showed less (. p=. 0.001) postural sway on the involved side (1.82. ±. 0.84°) versus the uninvolved side (2.07. ±. 0.96°). No side-to-side differences (. p=. 0.73) were observed in the CTRL group. The involved limb of subjects after ACLR demonstrated the least postural sway. In conclusion, these findings indicate that dynamic postural sway may be significantly altered in a population of athletes after ACLR and RTS compared to CTRL subjects. Further investigation is needed to determine if deficits in postural sway can be used as an effective criterion to assist in the decision to safely RTS after ACLR.

THE CASHLESS SOLUTION:
In partnership with Our Cashless Solution Partner, We provide a cashless payment solution (Service) that enables You to make payments at Outlets in a simple, easy manner.
There are various ways in which the Service works, including cashless RFID and/or a mobile digital wallet. The Service runs on Authorized Devices. These include mobile smartphones and/or RFID devices, which are considered personal to You and may not therefore be transferred to another person to access the Service.
The Service can only be used to pay for goods or services at the registered Outlets which accept payment via the Service.
The important terms and conditions relating to use of the Service are summarized below. The Service does not constitute a payment service and is not a digital currency issuance or distribution service for electronic money.
These T&Cs govern the use of the Service and are a legally binding agreement between You and Us. Those T&Cs which relate to Our Cashless Solution Partner may be enforced by Our Cashless Solution Partner as if they were a party to these T&CS. They cover the following:

Fees applied to cover the costs of the Service

To make use of the Service You must first register Your details to create an Account. Once registered You will be able to make cashless payments at Outlets.
Each Account is personal to You. Once the registration process is completed, at Our discretion, Your Account can either be credited with funds or You can connect your Account to a payment source such as a credit or debit card or such other payment sources as We or Our Outlets accept (e.g. Outlet gift cards) which can then be used to make purchases at an Outlet via an Authorized Device. Where We enable the crediting of funds to an Account, typically available methods to do so, at Our discretion, are online, via mobile application or at “top-up” points at Our site. Online or mobile application methods may require internet access which cannot always be guaranteed.
As part of the registration process You may be asked to enter a pin and password when creating an Account, and will be asked for Your name, and email address. You may also be required to provide Your bank account details or Your bank payment card number. This information will be processed securely and neither We nor Our Cashless Solution Provider are able to see your full bank details or bank payment card number supplied in the registration phase.
Sales of goods or services at Outlets will be concluded between You and Us or Our Outlet Partners from which You are making the purchase. The Service is the enabling solution for the processing of such transactions.
Where You credit Your Account with funds, using any methods which are available, You are deemed to conclude a sale of goods or services with Us at the moment the credit is added. You will therefore pay the price of the goods or services offered at the Outlets prior to their delivery or provision. The choice of goods or services acquired, and paid in advance by You, is made by You when You make that choice at an Outlet and, at that point, the goods or services are delivered (subject to You having sufficient credit in Your Account to cover the price of such goods or services). Where You order goods or services from one of Our Outlet Partners We transfer to that Outlet Partner, Our rights and obligations arising from the sales contract which was made when You added credit to Your Account and the Outlet Partner becomes the contracting party with You in respect of the sale of goods and services.

When You tap ‘pay’ on a terminal using an Authorized Device it will generate a code which is scanned by the terminal. The code includes the identifier which is used to send the correct tokenized card information to the payment gateway.
The data recorded during each transaction is authentic and constitutes proof of all past transactions. The transaction data recorded on the Service constitutes proof of all the transactions concluded. Each transaction is recorded immediately.
All transactions with Us or Our Outlet Partners are governed by the retail terms and conditions agreed between You and Us or the relevant Outlet Partner. You acknowledge and agree that Our Cashless Solution Partner is not part of any sales transaction between You and Us or You and h an Outlet Partner and that Our Cashless Solution Partner shall not therefore be responsible for any liability relating to sales and purchases made between You and Us or You and Our Outlet Partners.

During the past decade, there has been an outpouring of books on 'the body' in society, but none has focused as specifically on physical culture - that is, cultural practices such as sport and dance within which the moving physical body is central.
Questions are raised about the character of the body, specifically the relation between the 'natural' body, the 'constructed' body and the 'alien' or 'virtual' body. The themes of the book are wide in scope, including:
- physical culture and the fascist body
- sport and the racialised body
- sport medicine, health and the culture of risk
- the female Muslim sporting body, power, and politics
- experiencing the disabled sporting body
- embodied exhibitions of striptease and sport
- the social logic of sparring
- sport, girls and the neoliberal body.
Physical Culture, Power, and the Body aims to break down disciplinary boundaries in its theoretical approaches and its readership. The author's muli-disciplinary backgrounds, demonstrate the widespread topicality of physical culture and the body.

The Red Sea Fund, linked to the Saudi Red Sea International Film Festival, has announced the 36 selected projects which will receive its financial support.
According to its organisers the Fund is “unleashing the biggest funding boost for the industry this year”, with an overall grant of $14 million (€13 million). Selected Saudi, Arab and African productions will benefit from the Development Fund, the Production Fund or the Post-Production Fund.
Among the 36 films chosen for this cycle, 25 (out of the 150 submitted) will receive grants from the Production Fund. Mohammed Al-Turki, CEO of the Red Sea International Film Festival Foundation, was “impressed by the quality of submissions received this year.” Among the films selected, we note Hounds by Kamal Lazraq (Morocco), 50 Meters, a documentary by Yomna Khattab (Morocco), The Effacement by Karim Moussaoui (Algeria) and Aïcha by Mehdi M. Barsaoui (Tunisia). Aïcha, the director’s second feature, had previously received a grant from the Development Fund.
The Post-Production Fund will give grants to eleven films, including Thiiiird,a documentary by Karim Kassem (Lebanon). Set in a village outside Beirut, the film follows the daily life of Fouad, a car mechanic, and the discussions he has with customers in his garage on the crises affecting both the country and their lives. Thiiiird is the third part of a trilogy about individuals confronting collective despair.
The complete list of the 36 projects supported is available on the Box Office Pro web-site.

Ceramics Professor Studies LGBTQ Culture Overseas
This summer, ceramics professor Ron Geibel traveled to the Netherlands and stayed an hour from Amsterdam at the European Ceramic Work Centre. While overseas, Geibel worked on pieces for his solo art show coming up this June, Pride Month 2020.
“I started to make flat work while in the Netherlands, and I focused on making my work more subtle,” Geibel said. “The tiles are hand-pressed, and the glaze work is drawn on and hand-brushed. I used the idea of camouflage, so you have to be at a certain angle to notice the pattern. The floor tiles I made were all-white porcelain with a clear glaze.”
One of Geibel’s most recent pieces, Untitled (glory hole no. 1), is a depiction of the average single person European toilet floor.
“It’s about what you share with people versus what you conceal,” Geibel said. “I use patterning and references in my work that deal with private issues in private spaces and how those ideas align. I decided to make the edges look cracked to contrast the pristine glaze. It’s weathered to make it look like someone has walked on it before or to give it a history.”
Much of Geibel’s ceramic pieces deal with identity, gender and sexuality. Geibel approaches these topics differently than other artists.
“There are a lot of artists who make work about similar issues,” Geibel said. “They approach the matter in a more confrontational way. That is one way to approach it, but my way of approaching it is a lot more subtle. I want people to walk into the conversation without knowing that is where they are heading until they are there.”
While in the Netherlands, Geibel studied Dutch culture and the experiences of individuals within it who identify with the LGBTQ+ community.
“The reason I went to the Netherlands was because of its history,” Geibel said. “The Netherlands is known to be at the forefront of LGBTQ+ rights. They were the first to legalize gay marriage and the first for equality.”
Geibel spoke with members of Dutch culture from rural and to get the inside scoop. He contacted people of all ages, from college students to recent retirees.
“On paper, the community seems to be accepting,” Geibel said. However, that’s not necessarily the case. There was a general consensus between all generations: it’s not as accepting as it seems from the outside.”
Geibel also spoke with people who have resided in Amsterdam their entire lives, people from small towns who later moved to Amsterdam and people who live in rural areas of The Netherlands.
“Part of this research was to compare the experiences of LGBTQ+ people in the United States versus in the Netherlands,” Geibel said. “I found some of the stories I heard while in the Netherlands were parallel to the experiences of those who live in the US.”
Geibel had the opportunity to eat dinner with gay refugees. The dinner was organized by a Dutch organization that finds mentors to help refugees adjust to living in the Netherlands as they wait to be naturalized.
“I didn’t go into that dinner explaining my research because that dinner wasn’t about the research, it was just about hearing stories and understanding,” Geibel said. “I didn’t want people to think I was there getting information for artwork I was making. It was more about hearing their stories.”
There were about 30 refugees at the dinner, some from Poland, some from Middle Eastern countries and elsewhere.
“Whatever my most challenging experience could be as a gay man in the States is nothing in comparison to their stories. I recognize my privilege, and the dinner was eye-opening.”
Geibel said he is also inspired by the queer artists who confronted inequality in the 1980s and lived through the AIDS epidemic.
“Their work was much more confrontational in a time when confrontation was necessary,” Geibel said. “I think that’s my responsibility of my gay man, to know the history.”
Geibel said that while art is a vulnerable form of expression, he encourages others to get outside their comfort zone and create something meaningful.
“Art is a communication tool,” Geibel said. “There are endless possibilities within the art realm. It’s a way for people to find their voice, to bring communities together, to start conversations. I like to do that through a coy, playful, political angle.”

+ MOTH & SCARECROW KITES
A very nostalgic object for many, kites take me back straight to my childhood days of getting them stuck in trees. These are two kite designs that I came up with to bring out the playfulness in the people around me. Inspired by the exquisite wings of a moth and the rustic charm of a scarecrow.

What makes a real man?
“What makes a real man?” has always been a loaded question to address, in any culture and generation. Scripture clearly describes the high and noble calling for men within their families, marriages, workplace and church life. Sadly, in 2020 the fundamental question of “What makes a man?” involves tackling subject matter that was barely imaginable even one generation ago. The notion of what constitutes a man has been blurred to such an extent that even physiological differences between men and women are simply being ignored in this process of re-defining gender. Current thinking among ‘experts’ is that gender is fluid and that one can simply ‘identify’ according to their inner desires and feelings. This vein of teaching says that one’s gender identification does not have to align with the assignment of one’s biological sex at birth. Thankfully, the shifting sands of popular opinion can be compared and contrasted with that of unchanging truth contained in Scripture.
First of all, the Bible clearly teaches that there are only two genders, male and female. Nowhere does Scripture provide any endorsement of ‘gender fluidity’ or multiple categories of gender identification. Each person’s gender directly corresponds to their biological design. An honest reading of Scripture clearly evidences this. Consider Genesis 5:1-2: “This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.” Jesus reiterates much of this in Mark 10:6-8: “But from the beginning of creation, God made them male and female. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” Scripture also claims that its teachings are unchangeable. Hebrews 13:8-9 says that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines (teachings).” The confusion in our culture regarding gender does not originate from the Lord since “God is not the author of confusion but of peace.” (see 1 Corinthians 14:33.) Our present culture has relegated the authority of Scripture into so far of a back seat that answers to basic (really, trivial) questions have been completely redefined. Under the now far reaching scope of ‘gender conversion laws’ in Canada it is potentially a criminal act to merely tell people that certain sexual desires contrary to Scripture are indeed sinful.
Despite the preceding (and potentially inflammatory) paragraphs we haven’t even scratched the surface regarding the high Biblical calling for men. We will keep things ‘simple’ and use Scripture as our guide. The Lord’s call for every man is incredibly high and full of eternal purpose. But let’s be honest. Our role as image bearers of Jesus Christ has been largely usurped. In the creation account of Genesis the LORD placed Adam in the Garden of Eden with the express purpose of guarding it and overseeing it. Genesis 2:15 says “Then the LORD God took the man (Adam) and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.” If you are familiar with the biblical account it was not a long time before Adam relinquished his God-given role by disregarding God’s instruction to not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Since then it has been Satan’s desire, from generation to generation, to usurp and demean the role of men today.
Below are some highlights from Scripture regarding man’s life purpose. In this issue we will only briefly consider each of these:
(i) We are to find life from the Word and to put away childish things that starve our souls.
(ii) We are to have our ultimate satisfaction and identity from Jesus Christ.
(iii) If married, we are to love our wives as Jesus Christ loves His church.
(iv) We are to be the primary example to our children.
(v) We are to actively participate in strengthening the spiritual quality of our local church.
(vi) We are to be ‘salt and light’ in the workplace.
(i) We are to find our life from the Word:
Just like we need physical food in order to get through the physical demands of our day so we need spiritual food to fight the larger battles of life. We cannot successfully meet any other life demands without properly providing the ‘spiritual calories’ for our ‘inner man’, our spirit. John 1:1 describes Jesus as the Word. Since Jesus is alive, He is truly the living Word! John 6:57-58 says “As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.” Jesus is not saying that we literally need to eat His physical body. He explains in John 6:63 that the words that He speaks are the food we need to grow: “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.” So, spending time with Jesus involves prioritizing time spent in the Scripture. The Scripture comes alive and feeds us as the Holy Spirit convicts us and illuminates the Word in our heart. Not surprisingly the worldly competition is fierce in alluring us to waste this time elsewhere. It is incredibly tempting at times to prioritize online searches for the latest sports score or news headline. However, to thrive we must first feed our spirit. Jeremiah 15:16 says, “Your words were found, and I ate them, and your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; for I am called by Your name, O LORD of hosts.”
(ii) Our satisfaction and identity must come from Jesus Christ:
Since society loudly applauds men for their work accomplishments, physical acumen and intellect most men end up placing high priority on flourishing in these areas. In contrast, Scripture prioritizes an intimate walk with the Lord. “Thus says the LORD, ‘Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches; but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises lovingkindness, justice and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things,’ declares the LORD.” (Jeremiah 9:23-24, NASB). So, if we are to glory in anything it is to glory in the fact that by the Lord’s mercy we are growing into Him! Consider also Psalm 147:10-11: “He (God) does not delight in the strength of the horse; he takes no pleasure in the legs of a man. The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear Him, in those who hope in His mercy.” What a contrast to what the culture teaches us.
(iii) If married, we are to love our wives as Jesus Christ loves His church:
Consider Ephesians 5:25-26, 28-29: “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word…So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.” What a lofty calling! We are to love our wives as we love ourselves! On multiple occasions I have despaired within myself as I have seen my shortcomings in this area. It is definitely unattainable without the Lord. We cannot look to ourselves to accomplish this in our own strength. Notice the role of the ‘word’ here in Ephesians 5. We are first to build up our wives by the living Word. This points us back to our need for being in the Word ourselves. If we see our wife struggling could it be that we are not living out the truth of the Word to her? Elsewhere Scripture says that “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends (John 15:13).” As I put the needs of my wife above my own I will see her flourish. How many marriages amongst believers have been ruined by a man’s selfishness? At many times in my marriage I have been convicted of simply carrying out my own agenda for the day without considering the needs of my spouse. Marriage is not intended simply to meet my needs for companionship, sex and a helper within the home. Our marriage is to reflect the love that Christ has for His own body, which is the church (see Ephesians 5:29-30). Understanding the care that the Lord has for us as believers enables us to exemplify this within our marriage.
How does all of this apply to me if I am single? For starters, it is best to ground ourselves in Christ long before marriage. Any man can strengthen the possibility of a future marriage by walking in obedience to Christ while as a single man. A man can love his future wife by building himself up, prior to marriage, in the Word. As a single man, we are also to guard our eyes just as much as a married man. A verse that convicted me while still unmarried is found in Philippians 4:8: “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.” Use this verse as a spiritual litmus test for assessing the content that you are placing in front of your eyes and dwelling upon within your heart. It is amazing how much ‘information’ in our life does not satisfy the standard described in Philippians 4:8.
(iv) We are to be the primary example to our children:
Ephesians 6:4 says “And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.” Nowhere in Scripture is someone else given the primary responsibility to raise our children. Raising children is a joyful yet sobering life-long stewardship. Psalm 127:3 says “Behold, children are a heritage (gift) from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is His reward.” Also, Malachi 2:15 declares that “He (God) seeks godly offspring”. Contrary to what much of our culture believes, children are not a mistake or an impediment to a good life. Yes, raising children for the Lord requires long term commitment and a deep spiritual vision. Raising children for the Lord does not come without a cost to our own self-centered plans. However, since children are eternal beings their impact for the Kingdom of God can have eternal consequences! Children are worth infinitely more than the temporal happiness that fleshly pleasures may give you. In our self-prioritizing culture it should come as no surprise that children are frequently depicted as financial and time burdens. The rampant sin of abortion is one tactic of Satan to attempt to destroy the possibility of children living for their Creator.
As a father of young children and teenagers I am continually amazed by the number of ‘voices’ out there clamouring to teach our children in the world’s ways. Whether it is news media, social media, the entertainment industry or our own secular school system there are many sources of ungodly
information that desire to grab hold of the minds and hearts of our children. Even more importantly than being a financial provider for the household, a dad is supposed to the spiritual head and spiritual protector within the home. Our homes need to be safe zones from the ways of the world. Living in the age of the internet and wireless media, every home is easily accessible to the world without proper oversight. Beyond that, our speech, hobbies and the things that we run to for fulfillment as fathers are also readily apparent to our children as they grow older. Is our walk pointing them to find fulfillment in Jesus or are we pointing them to be satisfied in the temporary pleasures of the world and culture? Children are quick to discern any hypocrisy and distraction within us. By the Lord’s grace, we can live a life that points our children to the Lord.
(v) We are to actively participate in strengthening the spiritual quality of our local church:
Before I lay any responsibility upon the shoulders of men for their local church, I first must admit that, by and large, the typical church life in North America does not follow the Scriptural model. The scope of this article cannot begin to address all that is meant by the preceding statement but let me summarize the current state of things just a little. When we hear the word ‘church’ today, sadly most people think of only a building. Much time, effort and cost is given to build elaborate and costly ‘churches’ that are used for only a fraction of the hours that exist in a given week. The success of a local church is often gauged by the curb appeal that the building generates. Furthermore, most churches today are run by a confident and Type A ‘senior pastor’ under a model that mostly mirrors a business. In medium to large churches, a senior pastor typically has paid helpers (be it an assistant pastor or two, a youth pastor, a worship pastor, etc). Effectively the church life is run by paid staff and most of the church ‘members’ typically show up only for a brief Sunday morning service to hear the senior pastor exercise his spiritual gift of teaching or preaching. In such meetings the rest of the body does not get to function in their gifts, they merely go home after the service. If the members are asked to function in any capacity on a Sunday morning it is typically to give money in order to support the substantial costs of this hybrid church / business model. This is not the highest model for the church life. The North American church model effectively renders the typical male useless and unneeded (aside from giving money). The Scriptural pattern is for a plurality of spiritually mature elders to provide Godly teaching and discipleship to equip the next generation of believers (see 2 Timothy 2:2 and Ephesians 4:11-14 for starters). There is no room for ‘mini popes’ or for larger-than-life individuals to run their personal ‘ministry’ out of ego or show. All men who desire more of the Lord must be able to spiritually function within the parameters of a properly conducted church life. Seek the Lord as to where you may function. Ask your church leadership where they envision you serving according to your gifting. Mature church leaders will not be threatened by such requests but rather highly encouraged! There are many ways that the ‘brothers’ in a local church can properly function. This can be accomplished by having various men speak over the course of the year rather than having every Sunday message coming from one individual. Perhaps you can also function in a small group setting, in outreach in the community, meeting one on one with others, etc. The options are many. Again, be in prayer and be in fellowship with church leadership concerning how you can be properly invested in the church life. Our church family lasts for eternity! It is wise to begin living in this reality even now.
(vi) We are to be ‘salt and light’ in the workplace:
Let me start off by saying that it is no more noble to be in ‘full time Christian ministry’ than it is to be working in the secular workplace. The key is to be where the Lord desires to plant you! Too many men have felt condemned in their minds because they are supposedly not doing the ‘Lord’s work’ while working in the marketplace. Many men in the pages of Scripture (think of Daniel and Joseph) have been highly used of the Lord in very secular occupations. Even John the Baptist, when talking to Roman soldiers, did not tell them to quit the Roman army. Rather John told them “Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.” (see Luke 3:14.) Wow, no one would deny that the Roman army could use a godly witness! Other than your own family, your workplace will likely be your most important mission field. In fact you may be the only believer on your shift or in your entire workplace. What an opportunity! Matthew 5:13 says “You are the salt of the earth” and Matthew 5:16 says “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Simply by having the job that you do, you will have opportunities for the gospel that your pastor will never have! These opportunities are not be lost or minimized; rather, they are a precious gift from the Lord.

Bodybuilding and workouts are focused activities that require a highly specialized set of training modules and a matching diet plan. Both these activities run together because in the absence of one, the other will fail.
We are thus discussing how you too could make a change to your fitness status with a combination of a bodybuilding diet and workout schedule. You could start with an exercise meal plan and even start working on your fitness from home.
Being consistent would help you burn flab and build lean mass faster. You can get even better results if you go for live online video sessions with a fitness trainer. He or she would help you get the most of your workout regimes.
The post-pandemic scenario has indeed validated the rise of contactless virtual fitness services. Available for both beginners and experts, these contactless and on-demand services are the modes of staying fit. They are also useful for people who are short of time or have social anxiety issues.
You may note that you would always require the same amount of time and patience as you would invest in a gym. You would need to get your home workout plans and bodybuilding meal plans in line, and you could use some expert guidance from an online trainer. Most of us are more comfortable working out on our fitness requirements if we could have our own space.
A home workout plan is just that: it is a sum of exercises that are tailor-made for you and your fitness goals. You can get one for you from your gym trainer or virtual coach, and they shall also be based on your current weight and height profile (also called Body Mass Index or BMI).
You could just be starting up (a beginner) or be a professional or maybe somewhere in between, but you can always use some quality guidance from an expert to launch yourself into something better.
Required equipment for home-based workouts:
A flat bench
A set of adjustable dumbbells or kettlebells
This home workout plan is designed for beginners. If you are more experienced, you can increase the weight and the reps as advised.
How to do it: Spread your legs to the width of your hips, chest open, head straight. The barbell should be supported by the traps. Flex your knees and descend. Try not to move your hips back, and keep the torso as upright as possible. Go back up and repeat.
How to do it: Stand up straight, holding weights in each hand. Step forward with your right leg and lower your body, while keeping the torso upright. Don’t kneel. Step back, and repeat the same movement with your left leg.
How to do it: Sit on a flat bench, and place a block flat in front of you. Have someone put a barbell on your thighs about 3 inches away from your knees. Lift your toes and squeeze your calves. Lower the toes, and repeat the recommended amount of times.
How to do it: Place a dumbbell on each side of a flat bench. Put your right arm and knee on the bench. Use your left hand to lift the dumbbell, while keeping your lower back straight. Repeat the same movement with your right hand.
How to do it: Lie on the ground and place your hands about 35 inches (90 cm) away from one another. Lift your torso a few inches off the ground, while keeping it straight. Go back down. Repeat as many times as you can.
How to do it: Sit on a flat bench, holding a dumbbell in each hand in front of your chest. Lift your arms above your head, as you rotate your hands until they face forward. Lower them down and repeat.
How to do it: Stand up straight, holding a dumbbell in each hand on the side of your torso. Lift your arms until they are parallel to the ground. Lower them down and repeat.
How to do it: Lie on a flat bench. Hold the barbell behind you. Lift it until your arms are straight. Lower it down and repeat.
How to do it: Stand up straight, holding the barbell lowered, with both hands in front of you. Lift it to your chest, bending the elbows. Lower it down and repeat.
No matter where you are, you should work hard and back it up with a proper diet plan.
A bodybuilding diet is not something you can take from something else and apply it to your own. Every person has different dietary requirements and habits, and the same change is visible in their metabolism and fitness levels. Their bodies too react to the intake of foods differently.
It also depends on one’s lifestyle and medical history, and several other factors like BMI that contribute to weight management.
With so many factors at work, it makes sense to know that the bodybuilding diet for beginners would be a lot different from those of professionals. We recommend checking with an online wellness expert (and an online fitness coach) to stay fit and to develop lean muscles.
Here is an example of a meal plan for muscle gain for someone who is either skinny or is flabby. If you are slimmer, you can increase the portions slightly and you may reduce the portion if you are on the heavier side. You would also find 5 egg whites, important too.
Note: This meal plan depends on your protein intake.
5 egg whites,
1 1/2 cup of oatmeal,
1/2 cup of raspberries/blueberries
1 protein shake,
2 medium chicken fillets,
1 cup of brown rice,
1 cup of asparagus
1 protein shake,
1 big steak,
1 cup of vegetables,
Some olive oil
If you are obese or overweight, the first thing you would need to do is to burn the excess flab on your belly, arms, thighs, and lower back. This would take a lot of time, depending on your (sedentary) lifestyle and eating habits.
We recommend that you make it a conscious choice to work out six days a week and have a matching diet for it. You should also stay away from poor habits like binge eating and staying up late because they affect your metabolism.
You should also consult a personal trainer to know what exercises you should do at home or in the gym. We are offering our insights on the meal or diet plan that you may choose for losing weight faster.
Here’s a 7-day all-vegan diet plan, as suggested by our experts:
1. Day 1:
Breakfast: Greek Yogurt or berries
Lunch: Salad with fruit juice, carrots, and cheese
Dinner: Whole-grain bread, green beans, broccoli, honey
Snacks (optional): Seasonal fruits and dry fruits
2. Day 2:
Breakfast: Eggs with fat-free milk
Lunch: Salads and fruit juices, seasonal fruits, avocadoes, boiled potatoes Dinner: Whole-grain bread or brown rice, vegetable soup, and some warm milk
Dinner: Whole-grain bread or brown rice, vegetable soup, and some warm milk
Snacks (optional): Avocadoes, popcorn, or some dry fruits
3. Day 3:
Breakfast: Whole grain bread or toast, avocadoes,
Lunch: Lasagna with tofu
Dinner: Falafel salad with dressing
Snacks: Popcorn with buttermilk
4. Day 4:
Breakfast: Oatmeal with honey
Lunch: A citrus fruit
Dinner: Veggie soup served with a whole-grain sandwich and some honey
Snacks: Green salad with beetroot and lemon juice
5. Day 5:
Breakfast: Toast with Peanut butter
Lunch: Boiled eggs or salted cheese
Dinner: Bean and veggie salad
Snacks: green tea or roasted pumpkin seeds
Note: You can also help yourself by staying away from your indulgent habits like binge eating or drinking, and eating processed or sugary foods. It is just as important to not give in to any fatty or oily food for some time and let the body cleanse itself.
A vegan diet may consist of the following:
Green and leafy vegetables: lettuce, spinach,
Fruits: Grapefruit, berries, bananas, kiwifruit, watermelon, pomegranate
Dairy products Greek yogurt, fat-free milk, and soymilk
Whole grains: barley, millet, oatmeal, buckwheat, brown rice, quinoa, millet, faro
Starch-free vegetables: cauliflower, tomatoes, bean, asparagus, bean sprouts, mushrooms, carrots, radishes
High-starch vegetables: sweet and white potatoes, beetroots, acorn, butternut, turnips
Other foods: beans, legumes, chickpeas, soybeans, pinto beans, lentils, and kidney beans
Dry fruits: nuts, almonds, walnuts, prunes, raisins, apricots, and hazelnuts
Cheese: tofu, parmesan, feta, blue cheese
Cooking oils: Olive oil, canola, coconut, avocado oil
You should also start your day with a cup of green tea. Post that, you should go for warmups and stretching exercises and then go for the workouts. Both these activities will help you get the most out of a vegetarian and fat-free diet. The key is to know that you are making a conscious effort to change your lifestyle and it will take some effort to get going.
Your diet and bodybuilding workout plans always run in parallel to each other. As you would understand, weight management is all about a balance between calorie intake and calorie expenditure. The reason why people head for the gym is that they are looking to strike a balance between their fitness and eating habits.
The problem with this imbalance could be that either they are overeating and not spending the stored calories or are putting themselves under stress physically by eating less nutritious food. Both these situations can court disaster in the long run because your dietary requirements are not in line with your fitness requirements.
This is just why you should consult a fitness coach and a nutritionist online to start on a positive note.
With MevoLife, you can do that from your smartphone by downloading an app. You can then choose a personal trainer to avail live online sessions on the go. He can also help you get closer to your weight loss goals by guiding you through all the steps that you would need to take.

Here’s one for my Asian curvy babes.
We are a rare breed.
We are an exclusive species.
And we are beautiful.
I want to speak specifically to the Asians out there. The Asians that don’t get seen in the bopo community, the Asians that don’t feel seen on billboards in their own country or heard on TVs in their own language. The Asians that feel practically invisible in every store that you walk into because your figure and your body shape is not welcome.
YOU ARE SEEN. YOU ARE HEARD. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
I specifically say curvy, and not fat, because even being the higher end of straight size is controversial over there. They struggle just as much as the fat babes because it is all put into one category over there – the “not good enough” category. I am going to use the word curvy because, you already hear that other word too much. In China at least, it’s always the first comment when saying hi. “Wow, you’ve got fat”
“Don’t eat so much”
“Fat is not pretty”
It is not just the first conversation but every conversation. In a culture where food is currency, it becomes even more puzzling that those same people will be the ones surrounding you with food for the rest of the evening. You will be told you are disrespectful for declining it and yet you are somehow meant to changing your body at the same time because SOMEHOW you weren’t blessed with the small bone structure and petite frame that would do your ancestors proud.
It still confuses me. It confuses me how merely existing offends my fellow Asians so much. Let alone existing in a happy body. A body that feels comfortable to wear short dresses that show some of your thigh! Shock horror ? let alone when you take it off and there’s a bikini underneath ? so tonight when I am celebrating Chinese New Year, I will be thinking of all of you and sending you all my love. You aren’t seen enough, but there are a lot of us out there – I promise.

“And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love. (1 Corinthians 13:13).
That’s one of the most memorable bible verses about love.
But what are Christian weddings without the perfect songs?
Who doesn’t want a Johnny Cash masterpiece or a Matthew West classic hit when proclaiming their love for their partner and promising to be there for one another in the good and bad times?
You’re getting into a lifelong union through a wedding, and having a great playlist will build a strong bond from the very first day.
Here are the 35 best Christian wedding songs to create an ultra-personal occasion that will leave a lasting impression on your partner and the guests.
From modern worship songs to classic hymns, these tracks capture emotions perfectly and have different meanings.
1. “Love Never Fails” by Brandon Heath
You are only getting into a marriage because you believe in the power of love.
You will need a song that affirms the message, just like Brandon Heath’s “Love Never Fails.”
The lyrics are inspired by the famous bible verse in Corinthians 1:13 and are a beautiful reminder of the power of love.
The song became a wedding staple after Brandon Heath performed it at Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher’s wedding.
2. “I Will Be Here” by Steven Curtis Chapman
Steven Curtis Chapman’s “I Will Be Here” conveys enduring love.
But what many people don’t know about the song’s background is that the lyrics were inspired by pain.
Steven Curtis was broken by his parent’s divorce shortly after he married his wife.
So, he dedicated the reassuring lyrics to his wife, saying that he would always be there for her no matter the circumstances.
Luckily for Steven, his marriage has worked, making his 1989 hit one of the best Christian wedding songs today.
As you tie the knot, you will want to affirm your commitment with lines like “I will be here when the laughter turns to cryin’.”
3. “When God Made You” by NewSong
This hit was released and performed by NewSong’s founding member Eddie Carswell for his eldest daughter’s wedding and has since become one of the best Christian wedding songs today.
The lyrics speak of God’s power in choosing the right partner.
He marvels at the power of love and the beauty of this lady.
The beautiful lyrics touch the heart and soul, outlining the Almighty’s plan for every one of us.
4. “Can’t Live Without You” by Bebo Norman
When you share a strong bond, you want to spend the rest of your life together.
That begins on the wedding day when you confess your deep love and affection for one another.
Bebo Norman emphasizes that message in “Can’t Live Without You.”
5. “Good Day For Marrying You” by Dave Barnes
Dave Barnes’ sweet folk ballad is for those simple Christian weddings young couples crave.
There’s nothing extraordinary they need for the day.
If only they could find a place to take their vows and start a new chapter.
6. “How Great Thou Art” by Carrie Underwood
Carrie Underwood never ceases to amaze her fans with her sheer versatility.
That’s why everything she touches turns to gold.
One of her best Christian hymns recognizes God’s power.
That’s the powerful message many new couples will want to hear.
The original hymn was in the Swedish version, written by Carl Boberg in 1885 but has since been translated into multiple languages and covered by many artists.

In any normal year, we would have the same routine with our significant other that we have had for years. It will look different from time to time, but it usually involves spending working hours apart and coming home together with the kids at the end of the day to have dinner, catch up on the day’s events, and relax before doing it all again tomorrow.
Busy schedules and monotonous routines used to make us crave alone time with our partner, right? We spent so much time apart – or doing things with the kids – that we began to miss who we were back when we were dating. You know, all that fuzzy, warm, romantic stuff. So, when Valentine’s Day came, we would make elaborate plans – dinner at a special place, tickets to a favorite show, a walk along a quiet beach, and so on. We would hype up the holiday and pray that it turned out as special and perfect as we had envisioned it in our heads.
Time spent together on this special night was meant to rekindle that spark.
Well, guess what, friends? Since COVID-19 has invaded our lives, those routines and schedules have changed drastically for many of us, haven’t they? With quarantine keeping many people shut inside together and most couples working remotely from home – there has been a lot of time spent together. Like, a lot of time together. Nearly all the time. Not to mention that most kids are home 100% of the time, too, which means either helping with schoolwork or trying to balance work and caring for kids.
All that extra time we thought we would have when the pandemic began somehow just dissipated. And this is exactly why – as we rapidly approach Valentine’s Day this year – many of us are craving me time instead of date night. We need to engage in self-love and break away for a moment. In fact, Zulily did an online poll of 1,000 moms and discovered that nearly 75% want some time alone. The reason I tell you this is so that you know you are not alone if you feel this way, too.
What could Valentine’s Day “me time” look like? While we may not entirely want to ditch the heart-shaped box of chocolates, the beautiful bouquet of roses, or the jewelry, here are some ideas of what moms are after:
Turn your bathroom into a spa. Enjoy a nice long – uninterrupted – bubble bath with a glass of champagne. Put on some of your favorite music, light a candle, put on a face mask, and climb in the tub to soak.
Go to the spa. If you really want a break and can leave the house, then go to the spa. Book some of your favorite services and just indulge all your senses.
Binge your favorite show. Load up on all your favorite snacks, close the curtains, turn off the light, and jump in bed. Binge-watch your favorite show – or one that you have been wanting to watch but never have the time.
Head out shopping. There is a good chance you have not bought yourself anything in a while – especially since personal shopping trips are not as frequent as they used to be. So, go buy yourself an outfit, a pair of shoes, a new purse, or even a new book you have wanted. Treat yourself as if you deserve it – because you do!
Spend time at the park – without the kids. Sometimes just relaxing outdoors and soaking up the vitamin D can be the ultimate mental cleanse. If you reside somewhere the weather is nice in February, then why no go sit under a tree and read a book or magazine? Take a leisurely stroll or bike ride? Lay back on a blanket and get lost in the clouds? Just do not forget your sunscreen!
Do what you love. If you are gifted with “me time” for Valentine’s Day, then spend it doing something you love. These are just a few ideas. Maybe for you it is a hobby such as gardening or painting. Maybe it is fitness. Maybe it is heading to the casino. Whatever it is you love to do, use this time to do it.
Valentine’s Day is all about showing love. As moms, we are always so quick to show love to others that we often forget to show the love to ourselves. If 2020 has taught us anything, it is the meaning – and the importance – of being intentional with our time. Especially me time.
At MilkyChic, we would love to hear from you. Leave a comment below and let us know how you have planned this Valentine’s Day – and how you enjoy spending your time alone.

If you are tasked with organising a wedding party, be prepared for some stress; your head will be full of ideas, while you desperately try to record everything on paper or on your device, and with so many vendors to find, you will need all of the help you can muster.
Here is our ultimate wedding party checklist to ensure nothing gets overlooked.
- The Venue – Simply put, this is your golden opportunity to hand all of the work over to a professional. By searching for established and classy wedding venues in Sydney, they would have their own in-house event planning team and that’s game over! The great thing about going for an established wedding venue is they have a wet weather plan waiting, and with absolutely everything you could possibly want, you just tell them how you would like your wedding party to be and consider it done!
- Parking – This often gets overlooked and if you are having a home reception, the neighbours do need to be informed (and invited) which ensures you have ample parking. How to calculate the number of vehicles? If you halve the total number of guests, you will certainly have more than enough vehicle parking spaces.
- The Entertainment – Hardly likely to be overlooked, yet it still requires some thought. It’s your day, so go with a music genre that appeals to your guests; rent a DJ or have some live music booked for the night, and make sure they will stay late!
- The Beverages – Of course, the last thing you want to happen is to run out of alcohol or mixers, in any form, and if you use a top venue, they have a range of options. You could simply declare all drinks are on you, and take an unlimited beverage package, or you could set aside an amount, and when that’s finished, people pay for their drinks.
- The Menu – You can’t beat a buffet for so many reasons; this is the best way to feed your guests – unless, of course, you wish to have the traditional dinner, which is always followed by the speeches and numerous toasts. As long as there is choice and options for vegans, vegetarians and healthy eaters, you should be fine with a buffet.
- The Invitations – Of course, these would be sent out at least 6 weeks prior to the event, and RSVP is recommended, as you need to know how many to cater for. Consider enclosing a small map to the venue, as not everyone will be familiar with it.
- Plan Some Surprises – Nothing makes a wedding party go like surprises; it could be a long-lost friend of the bride or groom making a magical appearance out of a box, or a singing telegram you hire to do a number. There are many ways to create some amusing interludes and by asking a few close friends, they would love to come up with a few.
If you can find a wedding party venue who has an in-house event planner, that is all you need, and with your concept and their expertise, the perfect wedding party awaits!

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I am profoundly honored and humbled to stand before you today as a new member of the PittMcGowan family. This is a moment that fills me with immense excitement and a deep sense of responsibility. On behalf of our entire migratory team of almost 40 people, I’d like to thank the many people in the Dean’s office, Departments of Surgery and Plastic Surgery, in PittMcGowan and in MMG who worked tirelessly to support our move.
I thank Dr. Bill Wagner for his long-standing leadership of this Institute.
Over 25 years ago when McGowan was seeded, Regenerative Medicine was a vision and a promise of the future. It is not the same today. Thanks to the 21st Century Cures Act signed into law in 2016, we now have the Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapeutics (RMAT) designation by the FDA. Reportedly, 91 therapies are approved via the FDA’s RMAT designation. Hundreds are in the pipeline. Regenerative medicine solutions will increasingly occupy a larger fraction of the healthcare market. It is already in the billions of dollars at present and professional market reports consistently predict a sharp rise with compound annual growth rate exceeding 20% per year. PittMcGowan must play an active role in shaping that new future of healthcare. For any small company based in our commonwealth seeking RMAT designation of their product, I announce a seed funding mechanism to collaborate with our faculty.
As we step into this new chapter, I am inspired by the legacy of excellence that defines this institute. I am pleased to report on the formation of the PittMcGowan Wound Research Consortium – a dedicated clinical research arm of this institute. Thanks to the partnership of Drs. Peter Rubin, Gayle Gordillo and Sashwati Roy. We are now the Pennsylvania home to the NIDDK Diabetic Foot Consortium. Joslin-Beth Israel at Harvard is funded as our satellite. This week, the first patient will be enrolled at our Passavant wound clinic. The PittMcGowan Wound Research Consortium expects to enroll patients at all its 20 sites statewide in a phased manner. We are currently working on logistics.
Throughout the world, it is estimated that every 30 seconds a leg is amputated. And 85% of these amputations are the result of a diabetic foot ulcer. Today, we have over 2 million amputees in the United States. For every 1000 adults with diabetes younger than 45, the number of amputations rose from 2.9 in 2000 to 4.2 in 2015. Every day we have 500 new amputations in the US. Pennsylvania ranks in the lowest quartile in the country with a higher-than-average rate of amputation. The PittMcGowan Wound Research Consortium’s goal will be to address that threat to our community through our network of community-based wound care clinics. Our first new Pitt grant award from NIH is aimed at enrolling underrepresented minorities in clinical studies on diabetic foot ulcers.
I want to acknowledge the patients and careprovider families who inspire our work every day. We want to hear from you. We are in the process of developing a diabetic foot ulcer community engagement program wherein we look forward to recruiting community representatives on a paid basis utilizing NIH funds. Our work here at the PittMcGowan will not only be about mending tissues and restoring function; it will be about renewing the hope of the people we serve.
At PittMcGowan, progress has been and continues to be a collaborative endeavor. We will further strengthen our ties with engineering towards higher extramural research funding. I am fortunate that as our team moved, my good friend and colleague Dr. Theresa Meyer moved from her VPR position at Purdue to serve as the VPR at Carnegie Mellon University. We are actively working towards collaborative funding application between CMU and our School of Medicine. NIH’s ARPA-H budget is sharply growing from 1-1.5. to 2.5bn. The DoD has several funding mechanisms well suited for regenerative medicine. To apply for these new funding opportunities, a programmatic approach is required. PittMcGowan will enable its faculty to aim at such large-scale funding. We will strengthen our industry partnership as it is a required component in all these large-scale funding mechanisms.
During the last two decades PittMcGowan has been a beacon of innovation. I thank the Commonwealth for seed funds aimed at boosting our extramural funding of PittMcGowan. At PittMcGowan, success is not just expected but will be nurtured. We will have a biweekly PittMcGowan Grant Workshop. I invite all faculty to attend.
PittMcGowan is primarily a research institute. We must help every faculty member be extramurally funded. Every other role of any individual faculty is secondary to this milestone. Collectively, we will find ways to significantly increase the return on investment by our Commonwealth.
I am pleased to announce a PittMcGowan Lecture series and a PittMcGowan seminar series. The PittMcGowan Lecture will be delivered by pioneers in the field every month. I invite nominations for the PittMcGowan Lecture.
I want to express my deep gratitude to each contributor and the entire staff of the Institute who have built an environment of collaboration and excellence. It’s through your dedication that we have already achieved so much, and I look forward to continuing this journey together. A new executive committee (EC) has been formed and posted on the PittMcGowan website. The EC will meet face to face every month. All other committees and leadership positions will be revisited by the EC. The first monthly face to face faculty meeting is scheduled for September 5th.
With the addition of the new team from Indiana, on-site core faculty and staff strength has doubled. We must get to know each other well and build community strength. Faceto-face interactions spark spontaneous discussions, brainstorming sessions, and serendipitous encounters that often lead to innovative breakthroughs. Our goal is to create an environment that respects individual needs while maximizing our collective impact by being present on site.
To our partners, donors, and sponsors, I extend my heartfelt thanks. Your belief in our mission empowers us to dream bigger and reach higher. Your support will be instrumental in turning our vision into reality.
Finally, our growth depends on our sustainability. As we partner with numerous other business units, internally and externally, we need to find the right business model of proportionate return. In discussion with our partners and with guidance from the School administrators, we will find that win-win model. The challenges ahead are significant, but so is our determination.
In closing, let us remember that the pursuit of regenerative medicine is not just a scientific endeavor – it’s a testament to the human spirit’s capacity for compassion, resilience, and hope. Together, we have the power to reshape the future of healthcare and to strengthen the economy of our commonwealth and beyond. Thank you for entrusting me with this incredible opportunity. I am excited to lead the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine into a new era of discovery, collaboration, and impact.

As someone who personally experienced the first downgrading of diplomatic relations between Israel and Turkey in 1981, and kept close track of the second downgrading in 2010, I naturally feel great satisfaction at the present time with the return to normalization of diplomatic ties between the countries. In both instances, in January 1992 as well as in July 2016, much hard work was needed to mend the relations between the countries, work that testifies to the efficacy of diplomacy in healing even harsh bilateral crises.
Nevertheless, a heavy cloud still hovers over the Israel-Turkey relationship due the changes that transpired in the Turkish democracy throughout recent years. We get the distinct impression that the link that connected Israel and Turkey over the years – the pro-Western, modern democratic link – is loosening and may even tear completely one day. The escalation of the Israel-Palestinian conflict and the deep stagnation of the peace process will place a heavy burden on the bilateral ties, mainly on Ankara’s part.

Buried deep in the U.S. House Democrats’ latest $2.2 trillion coronavirus relief package, announced Monday, is a key provision that will delight cannabis businesses: the Secure and Fair Enforcement Banking (SAFE) Act.
According to NORML, the main provisions of the proposed law – which would help marijuana businesses gain access to banking services – were included in the Democrats’ bill.
“Small cannabis businesses in particular are facing tough economic times, and access to traditional financial tools will help ensure that they can weather this pandemic,” Strekal said in a statement.
It’s unclear yet whether the Senate might approve the House Democrats’ bill, even if it passes the full House.
As of early this week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was still negotiating with the White House on a new coronavirus relief package, CNBC reported.
House Democrats caved to both Senate Republicans and some in their own party recently when they decided to delay a vote on marijuana legalization until after the November election, so it’s unclear how politically palatable cannabis reform is on Capitol Hill these days.

The energy of four graphs of some metacyclic 2-groups
Keywords:Energy of graph, Adjacency matrix, Conjugacy class, Metacyclic group
Let G be a metacyclic 2-group and gamma_G is the graph of G. The adjacency matrix of gamma_G is a matrix A=[a_ij] consisting of 0's and 1's in which the entry a_ij is 1 if there is an edge between the ith and jth vertices and 0 otherwise. The energy of a graph is the sum of all absolute values of the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the graph. In this paper, the energy of commuting graph, non-commuting graph, conjugate graph and conjugacy class graph of metacyclic 2-groups are presented. The results show that the energy of these graphs of the groups must be an even integer.

On the 11th of October we organized a "Mozilla Hacking Day 2" in Berlin. This was the follow up of the first Hacking Day in Berlin in April.
On Friday we met and went to dinner and talked about the next day. Since we had to wake up early on Saturday we didn't stay up long (cough). On Saturday we had a quick delay since we couldn't have our room at TU Berlin yet at 9am. Fortunately we could have it at 9:30am and had interesting talks before that while waiting. This was organized together with MeshCon, so we could talk to a lot of people that generally don't get in touch with Mozilla.
We devided the tables into "Firefox", "Firefox OS", "Firefox Addons" and "Other". All hacking tables had attendees present. Many of them didn't know what to hack on, so we helped them out. Someone asked me about Popcorn.js and I could show him how to fix a bug (he found it himself!) in Popcorn Maker. On the other tables people were busy hacking on other stuff. I think most people enjoyed this day.
At lunch we had great quiches from Florian, who suggested to cook them for us. These were amazing, thanks again to you, Florian!
From the around 35 attendees, 2 said that they will continue contributing to Mozilla (Add-ons) and one even registered to be an add-on reviewer.
According to the feedback we have decided the following:
All in all, it was a great day and we'll certainly provide this opportunity to learn in 2015.

Interactive designer Alice Robbiani created a beautiful sculptural charger that turns an iPhone into a magnetic objet d’art. Spira uses inductive charging, which works a little your Oral-B toothbrush. There a reason though why we still charge most gadgets by cable – inductive charging is much, much slower. The Spira doesn’t change this but it was designed around this problem, by creating an inductive charger you won’t mind your iPhone spending a lot of time resting on. Check out how beautiful charging your phone can look like!

The biggest rumor in mobile technology Tuesday is that Internet search giant Google is gobbling up a company called Viewdle.
If the process goes through, the Ukrainian maker of facial recognition technology will call Google it’s new home.
So what would Google want from Viewdle? For starters, the platform automatically tags photos, a feature that could be useful to Google in no shortage of social applications.
CNET reported this morning that the acquisition has been on Google’s radar for more than a year and is expected to close by week’s end.
The move makes sense for Google because Viewdle’s technology provides a way for users of Google+, Android, Picasa, and other services on a range of devices to easily (even, automatically) tag photos of friends. Viewdle’s SocialCamera app automatically tags Facebook friends and the company has released an Android game called Third Eye.
The purchase price is estimated to be in the high end of a $30 million to $45 million range.

The rumor mill got this one right.
According to confirmation from trusted sources relaying the news via social media, Apple has officially launched its anticipated iPhone trade-in program across the United States.
News of Apple’s program comes just as Best Buy introduces a holiday weekend promotion that offers consumers a 50% discount on the iPhone 5 when a functional iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S is traded-in.
CNBC’s John Fortt broke the news Friday, suggesting in the process that the program is not temporary and will be available at Apple stores throughout the United States as of now.
Word of the trade-in program is far from a shock, however, especially as the month of September looms. As of this writing, Apple is still expected to formally introduce the new iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C on or around September 10th.
In other words, a big season of trade-ins is about to commence.

In what’s being called the “biggest mobile developer study in history,” 6,000 mobile app developers from 115 countries are spilling the beans on their platform preferences and outlook.
In short, here’s what the expansive developer economics report tells us: iOS developers are getting paid the most (they make an average of $5,200 per month in app revenue). However, Android developers are now generating a respectable $4,700 per month – a clear indication that Android is hot on the heels of iOS in terms of developer popularity.
Perhaps the most interesting tidbit to emerge from the study, as highlighted Wednesday by VentureBeat, is that more developers plan to start developing for Windows Phone than any other platform.
That’s aided, of course, by the fact that 71 percent of mobile developers are already developing for Android, and 56 percent are already developing for iOS.
“Even so, the fact that 35 percent of developers are planning to develop for Windows Phone in the third quarter of 2013 — more than the 26 percent thinking of iOS — is likely to have a significant impact on the number of Windows Phone apps,” this morning’s report reads.

MobilityArena Buyer’s Guide Verdict
Looking at the specs, features and price, in comparison to both competitors from other brands and existing models from TECNO, the Pova Neo is a difficult package to understand.
The main reason is the underwhelming chipset/processor. It is difficult to justify this smartphone’s ₦72,000 price tag. We find it a difficult phone to recommend.
Our Buyer’s Guide Verdict is a recommendation based on the specs of the device and a general guide to help you understand how much value a device offers for its price. It is not an endorsement of the device. Ask questions and use your judgement when buying any device; MobilityArena takes no responsibility for your buying decisions.

Communication involves more than words and sounds. That’s why children are able to participate in interactions long before they can understand words or talk.
Eye gaze is a form of non-linguistic communication. It establishes a connection between caregiver and child, and helps children learn. In the photos, a father is sitting across from his child. The father first looks at the child, and then turns to look at something behind the child. The child follows his father’s eye gaze to see what he is looking at. This behavior is typical of infants at this age. Research shows that at around 10 months, children begin to understand that eye gaze can be used to communicate.
By the time they’re toddlers, children use people’s eye gaze as signals for what a person is interested in or what they’re talking about. Over time, this helps children learn words for concepts and objects in their environment.
- Back-and-forth or contingent interactions
- exchanges in which a caregiver times her responses to a child’s behavior
- observing then reproducing, or copying, a behavior
- Infant-directed speech
- a special tone and style of speech used to talk to young children. It’s also called parentese.
- the support a caregiver provides a child to help her achieve more than she would be able to accomplish on her own

The relationship between object and tradition – Eszter Kain’s ‘St. Lucy’s chair’ handbag
A large part of Eszter Kain’s works is centred around the reinterpretation of traditions and traditional forms. Her earlier research focused on the act of mending items, moribund professions related to mending, and the importance of appreciation. Her ‘St. Lucy’s chair’ project highlights several intriguing correlations in this regard. The burning of St. Lucy’s chair forms part of the traditions surrounding St. Lucy’s Day. The appearance and functionality of the three-module handbag reflects on the same tradition.

My Haul from Althea Philippines
Whenever I receive some blogging money, I use a portion of it to buy stuff that I want or something for my family. Last time, I bought a new bag and a new pair of shoes for my husband. This time I decided to get some beauty products for myself.
Althea.Ph is a new site that offers Korean products. Korean beauty products are a hit in nearby countries like Malaysia, Singapore and now the Philippines. Althea is a one stop online shop that caters to consumers who wants to get discount of their fave authentic Korean products. There’s Laneige, Tony Moly, Etude House, Nature Republic and more to name a few.
They gave out a P300 sign up bonus last time (now it’s only P150) and I was able to grab this offer. Plus a free shipping fee for P1000 purchases.
You need to wait at least 5-7 days for your items because it will come directly from Korea. As of now, it’s unfortunate that they only accept Paypal payment. I wish they will add more payment options soon.
These are the items I bought. Please watch my unboxing here:

Conan is awesome. I have very fond memories of seeing the movies when I was a kid. I remember first seeing a trailer for Conan the Barbarian while I was laid up in the hospital getting over an intestinal flu. I couldn’t wait to get better and go check it out in the theaters.,The first was an epic sword and sandal classic like no other before. It had demons, giant snakes, cults, orgies, magic, and a brilliant score. I even liked Conan the Destroyer, which was vastly inferior as a movie, but equally brutal in terms of monsters, battle, and blood. It was more a quest kind of adventure that felt like a dungeons and dragon module. There was bizarre cults, wizard battles and human sacrifice. One of the first comics I ever bought was a Conan one from the early 80’s. It what first got interested in drawing. I even read a few of Robert E. Howard Conan novels with Frazetta covers which were a bit tough for a junior high-school kid like me to get through. They were dry, light on monsters and really kind of drawn out with lot’s of talk of wenches and ale. That was the first time I kind of got let down by the character. So I gave the books a pass, eventually got into other things and kind of forgot about Conan. When this new 2011 Conan movie came out I was disappointed again. I took me 3 times just to get through the thing, I kept on falling asleep. Whatever magic pull Conan had on me when I was younger had all but vanished. I know that Dark Horse had been keeping the Conan comics alive and kicking since the early 2000’s. The covers have always been great but I’ve never been compelled by writer or interior art to get it a proper shot. When I heard that DMZ and Northlanders writer Brian Wood was on scripting and Beck Cloonan was on art duties I thought I’d give it a crack. I was a big fan of early DMZ and I’ve read a handful of Northlanders books that really kicked ass. I figured if anyone could get the tone right it would be Brian. Becky Cloonan I’m not so familiar with. I’ve seen some of her art for her mini-comic Wolves that looked really stark and cool, so why not.
I wasn’t expecting this. Not in a million years. Wood and Cloonan have reinvented Conan into a likable self-aware rogue. He’s like your drunk friend that’s always at the wrong place at the wrong time, getting into fights, and causing a shit-ton of trouble, escaping with a few bruises and good story to tell. Not a frat boy, mind-you, more like the punk kid from the wrong-side of the tracks kind of friend. The dude that always had your back in high school, but broke anything that you lent him and never paid you back. Conan is impulsive and selfish (he’s a barbarian)but has a pretty big heart and ego to match. He just escaped from a clusterfuck on to a boat, and basically hi-jacks the thing in order to escape the wrath of a corrupt city guard. There’s a brief showdown with the captain which leads to nice exchange:
“Have you silver to pay for passage, barbarian?”
“I pay with Steel.”
This attitude feels right at home with the Conan I know and love from the movies. Yet it’s different. He’s got a bit more a playful almost light-hearted spirit. He’s not a burdened by tragedy and fueled by revenge like in the movies. Nor is he as dim-witted. This is more than I bargained for. I genuinely like this version miles above the original movie Conan. There’s a lot more depth and swagger to him. He’s not just a brute that can kick-ass, but someone who can con his way out of situation if he need’s to. He does that here. Conan regaled the captain and crew with a tale about how he was drunk at a tavern while the captain of the guard was killed over the mistreating of a maiden. He was passed-out and picked up because all other suspects left. Sobering up in the court he realized how fucked he was about to be and grab his sword and battled his way out of there, only to be chased to the boat. He wins over the crew with his story.
Cloonan’s Conan (say that five times fast) looks like a healthy Nathan Explosion from Dethklok. He’s in his early 20’s and doesn’t have the muscle-bound body builder physique that is commonly associated without the character. He kind of just looks like a viking dude with long straight black hair that can kick some ass. At first I wasn’t so sure Cloonan’s style was right for this book. There’s any early double-page spread of Conan looking over his should during a chase that looked rather simplistic and crude, and did not evoke feeling of the epic age of Hyboria. There is a few spots where this happens and the set-piece backdrop fails to impress. Her simplified cartoony-style just doesn’t work with a straight forward composition. Let’s face it, a lack detail does not take the breath away. However when she brings it in to the close-quarters and talking heads, you can get the real personality of the people she draws. Their expressions come through and tell the story in an economical way. I immediately know who Conan is as young barbarian. I get that the striking Queen of The Black Coast is an insane and sexy succubus and the captain is solid guy just trying to make his way in the world. Dave Stewart’s coloring compliments Cloonan’s emotive combination of dry-brush inking and fluid lines with a desaturated color palette. It completes the whole package and tone of the book and firmly places it on the fresh side of “indy”. You can tell straight-away this is not your typical sword and sandal Conan and runs a bit off the beaten path.
Even thought this a different direction for Conan it’s a good set-up issue. My main critique of this right now is that we are missing battle, grandiose backgrounds, and a bit of fantasy. Off-beat or not, those three ingredients are crucial to a successful Conan. I think we’ll get them soon enough, but I could have used a bit more of a taste in the first issue. In the meantime there’s a lot that’s working right now. Conan’s personality is different from what I remember but it works. It makes him a bit unpredictable and therefore more interesting. I suspect some traditional Conan fans might have an issue with it though. Conversational dialogue style blended with romanticized narrative caption makes for easy and enjoyable read. The sexuality of the Queen of the Black Coast leaps off the page and in to your lap. She is simply stunning. That gothic beauty will keep all the fanboys coming back for more. Becky Cloonan rendered her in the most compelling way imaginable and really heats up the pages of book with her presence. All in all the Conan reboot is a solid first issue and has me hooked for more.

A vacuum-like static rang in my ears. It wasn’t until Danny nudged my arm that the typical raucous bar noises filtered through again. And when he scooted his barstool back a foot or two and raised his hand to flag down a server, everything seemed to return to normal. Sort of.
“Gin and tonic for my friend and I’ll have another martini, please. Thanks.” Danny tipped back the last of his drink then handed it over before twisting to face me. “So other than being out twenty-five bucks and possibly having an awkward conversation at work on Monday, that didn’t go so bad.”
“I—I don’t get it. What just happened?”
“We agreed to let Geordie win the bet, remember?”
“Sure, but how did I get stuck here with you?”
Danny snorted. “We’ve already established that you like me. Stop being an uptight fuddy-duddy.”
“A fuddy—? You’re…” I gritted my teeth and tried to think of a stinging insult to fit the situation. “Annoying.”
Lame. And the “That’s the best you’ve got?” twinkle in Danny’s eye told me he agreed with me. I was about to let him have it when the waiter stopped to deliver our drinks. When we were alone again, I leaned into him and kicked his shin for good measure.
“Ow. Relax, Ry. I still want to kiss you, you know.” He popped the speared olive from his martini into his mouth. “With tongue.”
“You’re reading way too much into a stick of spearmint gum, honey. Don’t flatter yourself. It was a joke,” I huffed derisively.
“It doesn’t have to be.”
“Are you f*cking nuts? I’m not kissing you,” I announced primly.
“You want to though. Admit it,” he teased.
I blew out an exaggerated breath, sucked down half my cocktail, and slid off my barstool. “I’m outta here. See you Monday.”
Danny grabbed my belt loop and yanked me to his side. “You didn’t let me finish. I was about to say…”
“Yes?” I prompted with a rolling hand gesture.
“I want it too.”
We stared at each other for a heated moment. I had no clue what he was thinking, but it seemed weird to ask for clarification. When the growing tension went on a beat too long, I wanted out. “See ya, Danny boy.”
I pushed my way through the crowd and gulped for air when I finally reached the sidewalk. I didn’t dare stop to enjoy the refreshing autumn breeze. If I wanted to avoid any further confrontation, I had to boogie. Danny was the type of guy who liked having the last word, and that wasn’t happening on my watch. I fished my keys from my pocket and power-walked toward the parking lot behind the bar.
I ignored him and picked up my pace. I spotted my car and clicked my fob to unlock the door. Danny called my name again. I could tell from the sound of his footsteps behind me that he was closing in quickly. I had to hurry or—
Too late. A hand on my elbow yanked me sideways.
“What the f*ck is your problem?” I fumed, pushing his chest to no avail.
He moved into my space until his nose was less than an inch from mine. He was too big and imposing, and the look in his eyes was straight-up dangerous.
My d*ck twitched in my jeans. Of course it did. I had a bad habit of coveting what I couldn’t have and getting turned on by the chase. My past was littered with embarrassing short-term affairs or crushes on guys like Wes and Finn. Men I admired but never had a real shot with. I didn’t want to add Danny to that list because against my better judgment…I liked him. Really liked him.

What is COVID-19?
- COVID-19, which is short for “novel coronavirus disease 2019“, is part of the coronavirus family, which includes the common cold and SARS.
- It currently has no known cure, but vaccines are being developed by the University of Pittsburgh and other organizations. (Source)
- It has “community spread”, meaning people within communities have become infected without knowing how or when they contracted it.
- It can be spread by asymptomatic carriers: people who feel healthy but are infected by COVID-19.
- This coronavirus is a respiratory illness and has similar symptoms to a bad cold or a flu, but is not related to the flu. (Source)
- Because coronavirus is a virus, it cannot be treated with antibiotics.
- It was first identified in Wuhan, China on December 31, 2019. It is believed to be zoonotic, which means it can be transferred between humans and animals. It is speculated that COVID-19 had animal origins.
- As of May 6, there are approximately 3,680,000 confirmed cases worldwide, including over 1,200,000 cases in the United States. (Source)
- The virus is approximately 10 times deadlier than the H1N1 influenza virus. (Source)
- As of May 6, over 250,000 people have died worldwide, with over 70,000 deaths in the United States.
- It may be the cause of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MISC-C). (Source)
- Symptoms include trouble breathing, rash, fever, fatigue, neck and abdominal pain, and vomiting.
- While new cases are decreasing in some places, experts expect a second wave of infections later this year, possibly coinciding during flu season. (Source)
Transmission & symptoms
- COVID-19 has person-to-person transmission. It is most commonly spread through close contact with an infected person or with the respiratory droplets expelled through coughing, sneezing, talking, or spitting.
- It is possible to contract coronavirus from someone without any symptoms.
- It is possible but less likely to be contracted by touching an infected surface and then immediately touching your face. It can survive on hard surfaces such as metal or glass for 48-72 hours.
- Due to its incubation period, you are not likely to get coronavirus by receiving a mailed or shipped item.
- It may also have airborne transmission, meaning it can be spread through infected particles left in the air after a sick person leaves the area.
- Symptoms include chills, shaking, chills with shaking, confusion, inability to arouse, muscle pain, chest pain, headache, fever, fatigue, difficulty breathing, pneumonia, loss of taste or smell, sore throat, and a dry cough.
- They range in severity from mild to terminal.
- Symptoms may appear 2 to 14 days after exposure, most commonly showing up 5-11 days later.
- Less common symptoms include body aches, sinus congestion, kidney failure, blood clots, stroke, and diarrhea. (Source)
- The most vulnerable populations are the elderly, people with persistent medical conditions, medical workers, and travelers.
- Non-trans women have lower death rates than non-trans men, possibly due to the way the virus interacts with the X chromosome. (Source)
- No racial groups are genetically at higher risk for contracting COVID-19. People of color are higher risk for contracting the virus than white people because socioeconomic conditions, such as food insecurity and access to healthcare, amplify risk factors. (Source)
- Environmental factors can affect the efficacy of the virus.
- Air pollution may increase the death rate of COVID-19 by 15%. (Source)
- There is limited evidence that higher humidity limits the virus’s ability to spread through the air. (Source)
- COVID-19 can travel further than 6 feet if it’s windy. 6 feet is considered a safe minimum distance, so stay further away if possible. (Source)
Pennsylvania & COVID-19
- As of April 27, Pennsylvania has over 40,000 documented cases of COVID-19. Over 160,00 residents have tested negative for the virus. Over 1500 Pennsylvanians have died due to COVID-19. (Source)
- On May 1, some types of construction were allowed to resume.
- On May 8, the North Central & North Western regions left the Red Phase of quarantine and entered the intermediate phase of quarantine. (Source)
- Schools will remain closed through the rest of the academic year.
Timeline of the Virus
- The first death in the United States occurred in California on February 6. (Source)
- Over 25 million American have applied for unemployment since March. (Source)
- As of April 24, over 50,000 Americans have died because of COVID-19. Wordwide, over 190,000 people have died and over 2.4 million people have been diagnosed with the disease. (Source)

TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, New Mexico (Reuters) -A three-man crew from Italy soared more than 50 miles (80 km) above the New Mexico desert on Thursday aboard a Virgin Galactic rocket plane, the company’s first flight of paying customers to the edge of space since British billionaire Richard Branson founded the venture in 2004.
The two Italian air force officers and an aerospace engineer from the National Research Council of Italy made the brief suborbital ride with three Virgin Galactic crew members, two of whom piloted the vehicle, VSS Unity, once it was launched at high altitude from the belly of its twin-fuselage carrier plane.
About 75 minutes after leaving the ground with its mothership, the Unity spaceplane safely glided back to its starting point on a runway at Spaceport America, a state-owned complex near the aptly named New Mexico town of Truth or Consequences. Virgin Galactic leases part of the facility.
The flight marked a long-delayed breakthrough for Virgin Galactic Holding Inc, finally inaugurating commercial service after nearly 20 years fraught by development setbacks.
Branson founded the company with renowned aerospace mogul Burt Rutan in a venture that grew out of the 2004 Ansari X Prize competition won by Rutan’s experimental spaceplane – forerunner of the SpaceShipTwo design of Unity.
Virgin becomes the latest commercial enterprise, along with Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin and fellow billionaire Elon Musk’s SpaceX, catering to wealthy customers willing to pay large sums of money to experience the exhilaration of supersonic rocket speed, microgravity and the spectacle of the Earth’s curvature from space.
ITALIAN SCIENCE MISSION
The “Galactic 01” mission of the Italian team flying on Thursday, however, was billed as a scientific one, with the three men planning to collect biometric data, measure cognitive performance and record how certain liquids and solids mix in microgravity conditions.
For Italian Air Force Colonel Walter Villadei the flight was also part of his astronaut training for a future mission to the International Space Station.
Joining him on Thursday were two Italian colleagues – Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Angelo Landolfi, a physician and flight surgeon, and Pantaleone Carlucci, a research council member acting as flight engineer and payload specialist.
Rounding out the crew was their Virgin Galactic trainer, Colin Bennett, the company’s lead “astronaut instructor,” and Unity’s two pilots, Michael Masucci and Nicola Pecile.
The gleaming white rocket plane was borne aloft at around 10:30 a.m. EDT (14300 GMT) attached to the underside of its transport jet, VMS Eve, as the carrier plane took off from Spaceport America near the New Mexico town of Truth or Consequences.
Reaching its launch-altitude point roughly 45,000 feet (8.5 miles/13.68 km) above the ground, Unity was then released from the mothership and fell away as the pilots ignited the vehicle’s engine to send the rocket plane streaking in a near-vertical climb at about three times the speed of sound to the blackness of space.
Virgin Galactic said Unity topped out its flight at an altitude of nearly 52.9 miles (85.1 km).
At the apex of the flight, with the rocket shut down, the crew then experienced a few minutes of weightlessness before the craft shifted into re-entry mode and began its gliding descent back to Earth.
A Virgin Galactic webcast showed live footage of crew members strapped into their seats in flight suits and sunglasses as they neared the height of their voyage, then enjoying the thrill of microgravity as Villadei unveiled an Italian flag in the cabin.
EVOLVING BUSINESS MODEL
The flight came two years after Branson himself rode along with five other Virgin Galactic personnel for the first fully crewed test spaceflight of Unity in July 2021. At the time, the company was targeting regular commercial service to begin in 2022 following additional test flights.
But completion of the test program took longer than anticipated after federal regulators grounded Unity for 11 weeks while the company was under investigation for deviating from its assigned airspace on ascent during the July 2021 flight. A final crewed test flight to space was conducted with little fanfare five weeks ago.
The company had said before Thursday’s launch that a successful flight would pave the way for Unity to fly again in early August, with monthly flights thereafter.
Virgin Galactic has said it has already booked a backlog of some 800 customers, charging most from $250,000 to $450,000 per seat, and envisions eventually building a large enough fleet to accommodate 400 flights annually.
Establishing a solid safety record is critical. An earlier prototype of the Virgin Galactic rocket plane crashed during a test flight over California’s Mojave Desert in 2014, killing one pilot and seriously injuring another. Passengers are required to sign a pre-flight waiver acknowledging the risks and lack of government regulation over space tourism.
How high one goes to experience what is considered true spaceflight may also factor into the equation.
Bezos, whose astro-tourist venture Blue Origin has already flown several commercial passenger flights, has disparaged Virgin as falling short of the mark.
Unlike Unity, Bezos has said, Blue Origin’s suborbital New Shepard rocketship tops the 62-mile-high-mark (100 km), called the Karman line, set by an international aeronautics body as defining the boundary between Earth’s atmosphere and space.
NASA and the U.S. Air Force both define an astronaut as anyone who has flown 50 miles (80 km) high or more.

So You’re Wondering… How Do I Sell My House Fast in Rossville, TN?
If you resemble many property owners in Rossville, TN, you wish to “sell my house fast in Rossville”. Whether it’s because you have another obligation or simply something else you wish to do with the money, your house has to sell rapidly in East Tennessee so you can get moving.
Regrettably, it doesn’t consistently happen as quickly as Tennessee homeowners would like it to. Every property owner is at the mercy of the marketplace, and the time your house will take to sell is influenced by many elements, including: the national economy, the local economy in Rossville and East Tennessee, existing rates of interest, your community trends and its condition, the condition of your home, the listing price of your home, and the asking price and actual SALES price of similar houses close by in Rossville.
There are numerous other things that factor in, but many people in Rossville just do not have the time to wait around for the prices in their area to go up. Instead, you have to deal with the reality of the real estate market in Rossville: time is ticking away quickly!
Here Are 4 Things You Can Do Now to Help Make Certain Your Rossville House Sells Fast
Step 1 to Sell My House Fast in Rossville
Bear in mind that there are lots of other choices right now for purchasers. You’re up against all sorts of homes in the Rossville TN region for your purchaser’s hard-earned money. Do not list at the price you want to get for your house, list it at a number that you are fairly certain you can close within 3-6 months. Do your digging and determine exactly what’s reasonable. Look at houses of comparable size, year of construction, layout, bed and bath count,place, and condition for the best chance at selling your house rapidly.
Step 2 to Sell My House Fast in Rossville
You also need to consider who your ideal buyer is. Are you near a school where a new family might wish to live? Are you in Rossville’s center where a young couple wants to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the surroundings? Do you live in an area where there are a majority of renters, so homeowners might not want to purchase there, but investors might? Find out who your ideal purchaser is, then you can move on to the next step …
Step 3 to Sell My House Fast in Rossville
Invest your effort into preparing your home for the perfect buyer. You’ve probably already heard that a staged house offers about 83% quicker than an empty house. (FYI: staging is where you design your home with furniture to help a buyer envision what their new life might look and feel like.) And, you don’t have to work with a professional staging company to obtain these advantages — you can use Pinterest or Houzz for do-it-yourself design inspiration and current trends! Leaving a little of your own furnishings in the house (or perhaps spending a few hundred dollars in your area to buy used or rent furniture) can make all the distinction between a fast sale and a long wait. For example, if you think your perfect purchaser is a household with kids, establish the bed rooms to highlight that.
Step 4 to Sell My House Fast in Rossville
While you might be against it, the professional assistance of a local Rossville listing agent can add to your house selling quickly. By preparing your home, listing it on the open marketplace, and assisting you to seal the deal, their competence will likely prove to be well worth their cost. If you think they can assist you, there are lots of agents to pick from. Find a respectable agent with a great performance history and, if you require some suggestions, simply give us a ring at 423-375-8575 and we’ll pass along some referrals. Yes, this will cost you 3-6% of the earnings, or several thousand dollars, but for some homeowners, that’s well worth it.
Final Considerations So You Can Sell Your House Fast in Rossville TN
Making certain your house sells fast depends on you doing the research and legwork to see how much you need to expect to sell your home for. You must start the process by discovering equivalent houses in the Rossville area and see what they sold for. Think about things like view, lawn size, design, and condition. You also have to take a look at the appliances and floors, plus major systems like heating, roofing, plumbing and electrical. Have there been relatively recent upgrades to those houses? Were they staged? How much time did they need to sell?
When marketing your East Tennessee home, some secrets to getting the most buyers through the door include: removing family images and individual items to help purchasers see themselves in your home, taking professional photos of all the spaces, and using good natural lighting to make the house feel larger.

On Sunday we talked about our habits of waking and practices of prayer that can orient us toward God in the very first moments of our day. I have pulled out some of our favorite quotes from Sunday for those who couldn’t make it to meeting. We talked a lot about why prayer is so important in the morning. Join us on this Sunday, January 22 for a more practical conversation on how to develop a habit of morning prayer.
“Most days, we wake up to our own monsters, desperately in need of a heavenly parent to remind us of the truth about reality–that we are loved by a good God, and because of him, everything will be okay.”Justin Whitmel Earley
“Our best parenting comes when we think less about being parents of children and more about being children of God.”Justin Whitmel Earley
“We are marked from our first waking moment by an identity that is given to us by grace: an identity that is deeper and more real than any other identity we will don that day.”Tish Harrison Warren
“God is forming us into new people.
And the place of that formation is in the small moments of today.”Tish Harrison Warren
“Education is what you learn and know–things you are taught.
Formation is what you practice and do– things that are caught.
The most important things in life, of course, are caught, not taught, and formation is largely about unseen habits.”Justin Whitmel Earley
“What if the good life doesn’t come from having the ability to do what we want but from having the ability to do what we were made for? What if freedom comes from choosing the right limitations not avoiding all limitiations?”Justin Whitmel Earley
These are two podcast episodes that were mentioned in our discussion. They both offer more insight into the idea that it is through rules, limitations, discipline, and dogma that we find true hapiness and freedom.
I have found the sports analogy from Bishop Barron realy helpful for myself and my kids.
A final idea that I brought to our discussion was that of ordo amoris, or rightly ordered affections. This is about knowing what is true, good, and beatiful, learning to love those things, and having the discipline to make them a priority in our lives. For more information about how I think about ordo amoris in my life and homeschool check this out.

Don’t read this until you’ve looked through part 1.
In Part 1, I used a piano lesson as an example of discovering the deeper cause of some aspect of your playing you don’t like. Once you find that deeper cause, strip away other aspects of your playing so that you can work exclusively on that deeper cause.
If that’s confusing, I’ve created another example. Part one talked about simplifying piano improvisation by simplifying and focusing on single elements instead of the whole complicated playing process. In this part, I’ll use a classic solo from J.J. Johnson (a legendary trombone player) and demonstrate the simplification process to help learn this difficult solo quicker (and build your chops in the process).
The J.J. Johnson solo I’ll use is from the tune “Old Devil Moon” from his album, The Eminent J.J. Johnson. I think it’s an example of a classic solo that jazz trombone players should all play. To think that J.J. improvised this blows my mind.
The goal is for me to play the solo at the speed on the recording:
Most players would slow it down and play through it a bunch of times, gradually increasing the speed until they can play it at tempo. That process is tried and true, but I think there’s a better way.
There are so many activities demanded of us when playing jazz on any instrument. Fingers, arms, feet, lungs, facial muscles, tongue, etc. What would happen if you stripped away a bunch of those things in order to concentrate on just one or two at a time? I think you’ll pay better quicker but I also think that you’ll strengthen certain aspects of your playing for everything else.
How often do you work on just one aspect of your playing like breathing, tonguing, or fingers? Let me show you what I’m talking about using the J.J. Solo.
Some steps toward playing the solo well
I want to first make sure I can play the notes of the solo. There are a lot of them. I’ll play them without a tempo just to get the notes and pitch in my ear. Again, just the first few phrases.
Next, let’s see how close to the original tempo I can play it right off the bat. Let’s say I start to stumble around 150 compared to the original tempo of 184bpm. So I have a way to go until I’m at J.J.’s tempo.
I want to do something beside gradually turning up the tempo.
Let’s start at the beginning. I want to write out the solo, but if you don’t yet have those notation skills, at least listen to the tune and discover the form. You’ve got to know the roadmap of the tune. You should also be able to play the melody by ear.
The form of this tune, “Old Devil Moon”, is a 48 bar what I would call A-A alt. The first 16 bars of each 24-bar section is identical. It’s an interesting tune, which is part of why I like playing J.J.’s solo.
Next, I want to make sure I know the solo so I’ll listen to it a few times and start to sing parts of it. For singing, the pitch of the notes don’t matter as much as the rhythms and phrasing. Don’t resist singing as a way to develop your ear for the music you are learning. You don’t have to be a scat singer. Leave finding the pitch of the notes to the trombone. Singing the solo with the recording is a great first step. And I’ll spare you a recording of my singing!
Next I’ll play the solo on my instrument. Say the fastest I can play it well is 150bpm. What is getting in the way of playing it closer to the original tempo? Maybe my tongue.
So I’ll set aside the trombone for a moment. I’ll tongue the articulations of the solo by just tonguing the air. I should be able to tongue it faster than I can play it, after all I got rid of the friction of the trombone.
I’ll record myself tonguing the phrases like this:
I know that sounded weird, but wind players can tell a lot about the mechanics of their playing by listening to their tongue when it’s not covered up by sound. How fast can you accurately tongue a difficult passage without your instrument? By doing this, you’re putting one important aspect of your mechanics under the microscope, so to speak.
Record this and listen back for any places you stumbled. Slow down and tongue those harder phrases to strengthen them. Listen for more than just note accuracy. Listen also to your swing feel, and refer back to my recent post on developing a better swing feel. Do you hear swing in the emphasis?
Try recording this tonguing exercise the more challenging music you are working on and see if your accuracy improves on the musical lines. This should improving your overall agility and feel on your horn in the process!
If I’m still struggling, there may be other impediments such as my breathing. Am I breathing in the best places in order to carry the phrases?
Let me give you another weird exercise. Play the recording of J.J.’s solo and without playing or even scatting, just take quick deep breaths between the phases. This is will reinforce your habit of taking in plenty of air. Yes, playing an instrument is very complicated. Lots to think about and coordinate. Lots of spinning plates in the air!
After all that, I’ll record myself playing these first few phrases at the final tempo of 184:
Let me leave you with a video I created on this very topic for my course, Improvisation Savvy. I call it, “Finding the root cause of a problem.”

The 5-Day Celebration of Arizona’s Desert Modernism returns with a sleeker look and a curated selection of events, including events focused on Mexico.
For those who don’t already know it, Tucson is a midcentury boomtown. The southern Arizona town’s population exploded during the 1950’s and 60’s, filling it with thousands of mid-century modern ranch homes, now known by many as “Atomic Ranches.” This month, the Tucson Historic Preservation Foundation is bringing back an all in-person format with an all new slate of programs and tours from November 9th to November 13th.
Among the highlights, the program takes a much closer look at the relationship between northern Sonora and Southern Arizona in the post-WWII era, including a now-sold out A trip to explore the architecture and design of Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora, on Saturday, Nov. 12.
“Nogales became such an important port for the transfer of people and goods, midcentury. The architecture of both sides began to express the growing importance of these cities in the 20th century,” said Demion Clinco, CEO of the Tucson Preservation Foundation. “Today, we really think of the border as being such a definitive wall. You have to imagine that it was far more permeable in the middle of the 20th century. The design and influence of these different ideas happening in the U.S. and Mexico were flowing back and forth in a more robust way.”
William L. Bird, Jr., Curator Emeritus at the National Museum of American History – Smithsonian Institution, will also take guests on a tour of the design of countless Mexico travel brochures directed to the attention of the motoring public.
Among the house tours, a tour of Judith Chaffee’s Jacobson House (above) stands out as an example of Tucson’s Modern architectural movement.

Florida State AD Alford met with the FSU Board of Trustees today and explained he and other administrators are in “deep discussions” about how to close the revenue gap (presumably with the Big Ten and SEC). A trustee, per the Tampa Bay Times’ Baker, also asked how much it would cost for the Seminoles to leave the ACC, to which VP for Legal Affairs/General Counsel Egan responded by saying it would essentially equate to $120M. FSU President McCullough, meanwhile, opined that the legal challenges facing the NCAA threaten to take away from fans and compared the current state of affairs to “watching an airplane crash into a train wreck.” (link, link); Alford also told trustees FSU contributes roughly 15% of the value in the ACC’s media rights deal but receives just 7% of distributions while also noting ACC teams are set to receive $30M fewer via media rights distributions than the SEC peers over the next several years. “At the end of the day, if something’s not done, we cannot be $30M behind every year.” (link)
In the same vein, Clemson AD Neff tells The Post and Courier’s Blau: “Is it time revenue distribution within conferences, or at least the ACC, is done differently? Yeah, I’ve been very active in those conversations within the league and continue to expect to take a leadership role in our desire for that to be a changed circumstance. Urgently.” ACC Commissioner Phillips comments “All options are on the table” as Neff notes on the possible timing: “I think nearer-term, from a budgeting cycle, etc., expect it to not be an imminent change, but that it come(s) with a timeline that comes with a nearer-term plan ability. No specific date. But it’s a very active conversation. The commissioner has been very forward in leading that and encouraging the ADs to look at it and, obviously, how we report up through our presidents group. It’s very top of mind for all those groups in the ACC.” (link)
Action Network’s McMurphy reports that “Apple still has not made a formal offer for the Pac-12's media rights, but ION television has emerged as a potential Pac-12 partner. ION TV is owned by E.W. Scripps Company, which has 61 local TV stations nationwide & launched Scripps Sports this year.” (link); Meanwhile, “ION/Scripps Sports is not involved in the Pac-12's TV negotiations, a source with direct knowledge of the situation” per The Athletic’s Mandel.

Miami (FL) WBB HC Meier violated NCAA rules when she “facilitated impermissible contact between two prospects and a booster,” according to an agreement released by the Committee on Infractions. Prescribed NCAA penalties include a $5K fine plus 1% of the WBB budget, a 7% reduction in the number of WBB official visits for 2022-23, a three-week prohibition against recruiting communications by women's basketball staff beginning with the open date of the Transfer Portal, and a three-game suspension for Meier, which she has already served. (link); The Athletic’s Auerbach removes any doubt about the identities of those involved: “(Fresno State transfers Haley and Hanna Cavinder) and a well-known Hurricanes booster (John Ruiz).” COI Chair/USC VP for Athletic Compliance Roberts says the goal was not to “put a green light on [that behavior],” and asked how if this ruling doesn’t do that, Roberts responds: “Not with that header on it. I think that’s a pretty good stop sign. You better be thinking before you do something.” Roberts also notes: “My understanding is that a hell of a lot of these collectives are absolutely [offering] inducements. The question is, is Enforcement going to take up these cases, and can they get the information, the evidence, to bring those [cases] to us? If the evidence can be found, we’re going to have a lot more cases.” (link, link); You can guess what Ruiz’s response was. (link)
Tennessee Baseball HC Vitello will sit out this weekend’s series against Dayton in what multiple sources indicate is a self-imposed suspension. According to GoVols247’s McKee, UT shortstop/Kansas transfer Ahuna is still ineligible to play. Vitello on Ahuna’s on-field future: “No, I don’t have a specific update. I know professionals from different entities are working on it, which makes me feel as good as I can and hopefully him as good as he can about it. People that are way more professional than me and a lot of people that are looking out for the kid’s sole interest. Hopefully, an update soon but I don’t have something specific now.” (link)
+ Ole Miss has parted ways with MBB HC Davis. Rebels AD Carter: “No one wanted to bring a title home to Mississippi more than him, and we appreciate the passion for that goal that he shared with our team every day. As he has throughout his career, Coach Davis worked tirelessly to produce a winner, and we wish him, Betty and his family the very best in the future." AC Case will serve as Acting HC for the remainder of the season. (link)

It started with a phone call. The person on the static-y line stated she was calling from St. Paul’s Bank. Immediately I envisioned myself lounging at the bank of a river somewhere, and the wheels began turning. The phone call ended and I immediately turned to our good friend Google. Where is St. Paul’s Bank? Half an hour down the internet wormhole later, I was deep into the Belize River Valley, learning about the villages along the Belize River that voluntarily make up a sanctuary for howler monkeys. Just look at these names: past Burrell Boom, to Flowers Bank, Maypen, Scotland Halfmoon to Bermudian Landing, Isabella Bank, Lemonal, Double Head Cabbage, Willows Bank and St. Paul’s Bank…wait! Double Head Cabbage?!! Time to alert the boss!
Tamara has been in love with the name of this village since she heard it, and now, here I was, finding a way to go visit it! Excited at the prospect of finally setting foot in Double Head Cabbage, we began planning our first of hopefully many forays into the back roads of Belize. Room? Booked at the Howler Monkey Lodge. Wheels? Crystal Auto Rentals had us covered.
What were we going to do? We had no idea! In our minds, we just had a vague notion that we would somehow stumble upon something fun, maybe involving the howler monkeys at the Community Baboon Sanctuary (aka, the entire region we planned on visiting) and well, we were open to the possibilities. Isn’t that what happens sometimes? You throw caution to the wind, prepare for some adventure and just go and see what happens!
Our detailed map of the Belize District shed some light as to the area we’d be in, and closer inspection at the Tropic Air departure lounge at the Municipal Airstrip confirmed our expectations. Keys in hand, fabulous vehicle to hit the road with, we turned to the Northern Highway.
Tamara hands me the map and begins the drive. “So we’re headed up to Burrell Boom, and should see a side entrance that will take us into the Belize River Valley.”
“But I am horrible at reading maps and navigating!!”
“Well, what do the instructions from the resort say?”
“Four miles past Ladyville, turn left before the police check point towards Burrell Boom village, turn right immediately after the bridge…continue straight through Burrell Boom, Scotland Halfmoon to Bermudian Landing…that’s like 10 miles…look for the Howler Monkey Resort sign on the left…”
“Hmmm…what highway are we on?”
“But this turn is the Western Highway…”
“No it’s not…This one that we just came off of is the Northern Highway…I don’t know what this nice paved diversion is called, but it’s not the Western…”
“I absolutely bet you it’s the Western!”
“Whatever T, if you say so…”
The car turns, with two semi-lost bickering islanders inside, hopefully heading in the right direction. Yay, adventure…
After some silence, and much thought, I voiced a fear. “You realize that when you get to Double Head Cabbage, there really won’t be gardens overflowing with double-headed cabbages out front right?”
“Maybe they’ll have a sale, and they’ll be going two-for-one…” We hooted with laughter and began a silly guessing game.
How many of you truly know the reason for the names of these villages? There’s another village by the name of Black Man Eddy, and we’ve often wondered if it is literal, but Double-head Cabbage? Silliness aside, we were excited to finally get to know the places we were headed to, and when we crossed a bridge and saw a sign for Scotland Half Moon, we could almost hear the monkeys howling.
After our roundabout way of finding Howler Monkey Resort, unpacking and snacking, we headed out to the Community Baboon Sanctuary headquarters. The sight of the howlers hanging around from our hotel’s verandah had us eager to check them out even closer! But first – some education.
Our guide for the day was Robert, and he was eager to share stories about the sanctuary, confirming once again that when a community comes together to work for the betterment of all, great things can happen. We learned about birds – his passion for bird identification and their nesting habits was clear from the get-go, and we even got a little golden shower from the bats that were overhead! But the real knowledge came when we glanced at a poster that explained the origins of the various villages’ names.
Aha! Here, we would finally discover why “Double-Head Cabbage”! And…well, it’s certainly not what we were thinking. In fact, never in a million years would we have thought it, and even this Belizean didn’t get the ‘Belizean-ism” of the name. It was so obvious, yet I completely missed it!
Apparently they no longer exist, but at one point, there were double headed cabbage palm trees growing prolifically in the area. Yep…palm trees. Double-headed CABBAGE PALM TREES! If you’re in the southern region of Belize, you’ll hear of a special dish called ‘cohune cabbage’, which is made from the heart of a specific sort of palm tree called cabbage palm. Well, the earliest settlers in the area known as Double-head Cabbage saw these palms and opted to call the location that. No crunchy round vegetables growing in the garden, no two-for-one deals. Not even the palm trees in existence, just a funny story about the expectations behind a name. We even learned of the definitions of Landing and of Boom, and were still left wondering where Black Man Eddy got its name…hmmm.
We made Robert laugh loudly when we told him about our village name expectations. Feeling sorry for us, he offered to take us on a mini-village tour so we could see the places we’d been anticipating. But first, we were off to the sanctuary to try and locate some howlers!
Robert explained that sometimes the howlers stay in hiding, or are too shy to step out for a full view. I don’t blame them: it’s hot, they are probably sleepy, and then weird two-legged creatures point funny looking things at them and a flash goes off. I’d hide too. But off we marched to the trail, hoping to catch a glimpse, or perhaps hear their howls. Along the way, Robert points out some medicinal plants, including one that is used as a pregnancy test. Yup – a pregnancy test. I listened to his talk, and was reminded that while we rely on our clinics and doctors to prescribe medications to us, in some remote areas, the practice of bush medicine is very much alive. Images of my grandmother pounding some thick leaves to place on our hot foreheads during a fever, baths in green sludgy water, picking leaves from our hair afterwards, and drinking boiled herbs and bark to clean out our system – oh yes, the village life is still very much alive and I, for one, am thankful.
Our medicinal lesson complete, we continued in the trail, where a rustling overhead caught our attention. Robert was all smiles as he looked up, and pointing excitedly, he showed us not one, but three howlers peering down at us. It was a big male, a female and a tiny baby monkey with the cutest face. Of course, we did the obvious and pointed our cameras and clicked away as the baby and female swung from vines and the male howled from his perch up high. Another joined in shortly after, and soon the canopy overhead was rustling with curious swinging monkeys.
Yet another lucky strike for us, and our excitement was contagious. Robert attempted howling as well, joining in with the big male for a few good lung-clearers. We don’t think he realized how insignificant his howls were compared to that big ole monkey!
Thrilled that we’d accomplished what some don’t on their first try, we decide to take up Robert on his offer to visit the remaining villages at the sanctuary. Some places were merely a few homes spread across swaths of land, and one was even abandoned! Overgrowth and giant trees shadowed a small abandoned building, while a few yards ahead, another crumbled in disrepair. As we turned away from that place, we passed through Double Head Cabbage, and had to make sure to stop and take in the views. We saw the bank where paddlers in the annual Ruta Maya Challenge take a break during a grueling race, and we also quickly learned NOT to step onto a cricket field!
By the time we made it back to Bermudian Landing (named after Bermudian grass) and to our resort, we’d quickly fallen into the village life vibe. That hammock called to us, the breeze was tempting and the beers were cold enough. There was nothing to do but relax and take in the sounds of a dwindling evening, maybe a quick dip in the pool to refresh after an evening of heat and trekking. When the night blanketed us, the stars shone brighter than ever, and a huge silvery moon lit our way. Long past dinner, and long after our chatter had subsided to simply a few words here and there, we could only reflect on what a serendipitous day we’d had. We were happy to have found out more about these settlements, and excited to have crossed off a few unique villages in our Backroads Belize list. (Black Man Eddy, here we come next!)
