Nearly one in five S&P 500 companies have said China's virulent coronavirus will impact their revenues or profits, underscoring the far-reaching toll the disease is expected to take on businesses around the world.
A CNBC analysis of more than 180 earnings transcripts and other corporate releases since the beginning of 2020 showed a high level of concern.
While most management teams that have warned of a revenue hit said they don't expect any impact to full-year figures, many expect a drag in the first quarter.
"Although it is difficult to anticipate the full impact of the coronavirus on our business, we expect the next couple of months will be very challenging," said Estee Lauder CEO Fabrizio Freda. "Chinese consumers in many big cities are staying home and retailers are closing stores or limiting hours in an effort to help contain the spread of the virus."
Royal Caribbean Cruises said earlier this month that precautionary cancellations are expected to cost the company 65 cents in full-year earnings per share.
"Unfortunately, no one knows how this outbreak will play out and we don't know how it will ultimately impact us," Richard Fain, the company's chairman and CEO, said Feb. 4. "We also expect that there will be an impact on future bookings in China, especially in the immediate aftermath of the illness. But again, we just don't know."
Others, like Apple, said that they've issued broader-than-usual revenue ranges for the first quarter to account for the potential impact.
"Many of the stores that remain open have also reduced operating hours," CEO Tim Cook said in January. "We're taking additional precautions and frequently deep cleaning our stores as well as conducting temperature checks for employees. While our sales within the Wuhan area itself are small, retail traffic has also been impacted outside of this area across the country in the last few days."
Another sizable number of S&P executives whom CNBC did not count in its current tally said at the time of their earnings release that it was too early to tell if the coronavirus would hit current-quarter finances but promised to keep stakeholders aware if the outlook changes in the weeks to come.
Others, such as McDonald's, have confirmed location closures in China but have yet to report earnings for the quarter ended Dec. 31. Three hundred ninety-two of the 500 S&P components have reported fourth-quarter earnings as of Friday.

Dow rallies more than 300 points on Friday as tech shares bounce, cutting losses for the week

U.S. stocks rose on Friday, recovering some of their losses for the week, as tech shares clawed back some of their big September declines.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed 358.52 points higher, or 1.3%, at 27,173.96. The S&P 500 climbed 1.6% to 3,298.46. The Nasdaq Composite popped 2.26% to 10,913.56. It was the best day for the major averages since Sept. 9.
Shares of Amazon rose 2.5% and Facebook gained 2.1%. Apple advanced 3.8% and Microsoft climbed 2.3%. Netflix closed 2.1% higher. The S&P 500 tech sector jumped 2.4% and for its best day since Sept. 9, when it popped 3.4%.
Cruise operators also contributed to Friday's gains. Carnival, Norwegian Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean were up 9.7%, 13.7% and 7.7%, respectively, after an upgrade from a Barclays analyst.
The "sell-off has stabilized a bit over the last few days, but there are still no real signs of strength," said Mark Newton, managing member at Newton Advisors, in a note. "Thus, the trend remains bearish and not much to bet on a rebound."
Both the Dow and S&P 500 posted four-week losing streaks, their longest slides since August 2019, despite Friday's rally. The Dow lost 1.8% this week and the S&P 500 closed 0.6% lower week to date. The Nasdaq Composite had its first weekly gain in four weeks, rising 1.1% over that time period.
That mixed weekly performance followed concerns around the state of the U.S. economic recovery as well as uncertainty around a new fiscal stimulus bill.
House Democrats are preparing a $2.4 trillion relief package that they could vote on as soon as next week, a source familiar with the plans told CNBC. The bill would include enhanced unemployment benefits and aid to airlines, but the overall price tag remains well above what Republican leaders have said they are willing to spend.
The major averages have had a tough month, with the S&P 500 falling 5.8% in September. The Dow has dropped 4.4% over that time period and the Nasdaq is down 7.3% month to date.
Much of September's losses have been concentrated in megacap tech stocks, which carry a heavy weight in the indexes. Shares of Apple — the largest publicly traded company in the U.S. by market cap — have dropped 13% this month. Microsoft, Alphabet, Netflix, Amazon and Facebook are all down at least 7.9% over that time period.
"After a buoyant and hopeful summer, financial markets are cooling in the face of reality," strategists at MRB Partners said in a note. "High-flying tech and tech-related stocks are in a full-blown correction, and weakness has recently spread to broader indexes, with a distinct smell of risk-off in the air. We had expected a gradual, albeit choppy, economic recovery, but it appears that some investors were not prepared for setbacks along the way."
Russ Koesterich, managing director and portfolio manager at BlackRock, said on CNBC's "Closing Bell" on Thursday that his team took profits in some high-flying tech stocks at the end of August and then were buying more cyclical stocks during the recent drop for the market.
"What we've been trying to do in recent weeks is take the cyclical exposure up a little bit … it's not that we think tech is going to roll over. We still like the themes. But on a shorter-term tactical basis, we're comfortable with the economy, we think we're going to continue to see improvement, and we're looking for names that are levered to that improvement," Koesterich said.

Trump is expected to nominate Amy Coney Barrett to fill Ginsburg Supreme Court vacancy
Judge Amy Coney Barrett
Matt Cashore | Notre Dame | Reuters
President Donald Trump is expected to nominate Judge Amy Coney Barrett to fill the vacancy left by the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court, sources familiar with the matter tell NBC News.
Trump is expected to make the announcement at an event planned for 5 p.m. ET Saturday.
Barrett is a 48-year-old federal appeals court judge favored by social conservatives and the religious right. Her confirmation to replace Ginsburg, a feminist icon who sat on the bench for 27 years, would solidify a 6-3 majority for Republican appointees on the bench for the foreseeable future.
Trump's announcement will come just 38 days before voters will decide whether he will hold the White House for a second term, and is bound to have profound reverberations on all three branches of government.
Barrett's expected selection will come just a week after Ginsburg died from complications due to cancer found on her pancreas. She will be buried in Arlington National Cemetery next week.
Ginsburg, who had in the past publicly sparred with the president, said in a statement issued while she was dying that it was her "most fervent wish" that she not be replaced until after Election Day.
That comment, and the precedent Republicans set in 2016 when they opposed former President Barack Obama's nominee to the bench, prompted a battle between Democrats and Republicans over whether a vote on a new nominee would take place before Nov. 3.
Barrett has long been anticipated as a potential nominee to the Supreme Court, and it came as a surprise to some when Trump passed over her in favor of Justice Brett Kavanaugh to fill the seat vacated by Anthony Kennedy. Trump reportedly said at the time that he was saving Barrett for Ginsburg.
Trump has repeatedly pressed for a vote ahead of Election Day, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., has said there is more than enough time to do so, despite his 2016 posture that prohibited a vote on Obama's nominee, Merrick Garland.
Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his allies in Congress have blasted the president's decision to nominate a justice. During a speech in Philadelphia, Biden said of Ginsburg that "we should heed her final call to us, not as a personal service to her, but as a service to the country, our country, at a crossroads."
But it appears Republicans will have the votes they need. Two moderate Republican senators, Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, came out in opposition to holding a vote, but failed to attract other defectors. McConnell needs just 50 of the Senate's 53 Republicans to stay in line, given Vice President Mike Pence's ability to cast a tie breaking vote.
Any selection Trump could have made was likely to be contentious, but Barrett could prove especially so.
Barrett, whom Trump appointed to the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, has already started to spur a cultural battle over the place of religion on the high court, and the future of abortion rights in the United States.
Democrats are worried that Barrett's deeply held Catholic faith will bias her in cases that could cause the court to revisit Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that legalized abortion.
They have pointed to Barrett's comments to students suggesting that their legal careers were a means to "building the kingdom of God," and a 1998 paper in which Barrett explored whether orthodox Catholic judges should recuse themselves from cases concerning the death penalty. In the paper, Barrett referred to aborted fetuses as "unborn victims."
Barrett wrote in the article, co-authored with a professor while in law school, that the Catholic church's opposition to the death penalty provided a reason for federal judges to recuse themselves in capital cases. She wrote that the same logic did not apply to abortion or euthanasia.
"We might distinguish between executing criminals and killing the aged and the unborn in this way: criminals deserve punishment for their crimes; aged and unborn victims are innocent," she wrote.
Meanwhile, Barrett's path to confirmation is bolstered by support among social conservatives, who accuse Democrats of attempting to put a "religious test" in the way of the Supreme Court vacancy.
Barrett has only considered two cases touching on abortion as a federal appeals court judge, in both cases voting to reconsider rulings that struck down abortion restrictions.
In both appeals, Barrett signed onto opinions authored by another judge, rather than independently outlining her thinking, making an assessment of her abortion jurisprudence more complicated.
'The dogma lives loudly within you'
One comment in particular from Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., to Barrett energized conservatives and became something of a rallying cry.
During Barrett's confirmation hearing in September of 2016, Feinstein said she had concerns related to past statements about religion.
"I think in your case, professor, when you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you, and that's of concern," Feinstein said.
Conservatives promptly put versions of the statement on merchandise as a sign of protest. "'The Dogma Lives Loudly Within You'; Now It Lives Loudly On Your T-Shirt," read one headline in The Daily Wire, a conservative outlet.
Democrats are likely to choose their words carefully in any potential Barrett confirmation hearings, but whether she will make decisions based on her faith is expected to be a prominent line of inquiry.
Membership in People of Praise
Barrett has also courted controversy with her membership in a small, primarily Catholic organization called People of Praise. Members of the group swear to uphold so-called "covenants" and are held accountable to advisors.
Female advisors were referred to as "handmaidens" until the term was introduced into popular culture by the dystopian television show, Hulu's "The Handmaid's Tale," based on the Margaret Atwood novel.
Critics of the group have called it a "cult," and said the idea of a justice on the Supreme Court being accountable to a spiritual leader crossed the typical bounds defining the separation between church and state.
As with Feinstein's comments during Barrett's confirmation, the controversy over Barrett's membership in People of Praise similarly led to a conservative backlash against what some saw as anti-Catholic bigotry.
Conservatives deny that the group is a cult, and have criticized Democrats and newspapers like The New York Times for what they say are unfair attacks on religion. Conservative writer David French wrote in The National Review that "parachurch" organizations such as People of Praise are misunderstood.
"It betrays fundamental ignorance about the way millions of American Christians live their lives," he wrote, noting that groups like People of Praise are common places where religious people seek advice on issues like dating, marriage, careers, and child-rearing. Words like "covenant," he said, were very common.
Members of the organization have also pointed out that it is open to both Republicans and Democrats.
How a process using carbon dioxide could stop your wine from spoiling
Whether it's a dry Chablis or punchy, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon, a glass or two of quality wine can be one of life's small pleasures.
A phenomenon known as "cork taint" can, however, create a host of problems including rancid smells and an off-putting taste.
It's a problem that Fredérique Vaquer, a winemaker in the south of France, has first-hand experience of.
"One time, I was with a lot of customers, it was a very important tasting and I opened a magnum," she told CNBC's Sustainable Energy.
"I had only one magnum … normally, it's a beautiful wine and that time it was 'corky'."
When it comes to cork tainted wine, the chemical compound 2,4,6-Trichloroanisole, or TCA, which can make its way into the cork, plays a significant role.
However, in France, a firm called Diam Bouchage has been developing a process that looks to tackle the issue head on through the use of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Dominique Tourneix, the company's CEO, explained that its system addressed the problem by using pressurized, "supercritical" CO2.
According to a video demonstration on its website, Diam Bouchage takes this supercritical CO2 — a fluid state of carbon dioxide — and injects it into an autoclave containing granulated cork that's been pre-sifted.
The idea is that the CO2 passes through the cork, removing all the substances, including TCA, that could taint wine.
The CO2 itself is then "removed, filtered and … recycled in a closed circuit," while the cleaned and purified cork grain is turned into stoppers at a manufacturing site. Diam Bouchage has also developed a product range which incorporates beeswax and a bio-based binding agent.
In his interview with CNBC, CEO Dominique Tourneix explained how by-products of the company's process could also be recycled and reused.
"Different companies are actually purchasing our extract coming from the cork to use the extract for their cosmetic applications," he said.
The power of green chemistry
Diam Bouchage's use of nature-based solutions such as beeswax within an industrial and manufacturing context is also interesting.
Some of the company's work encompasses so-called "green chemistry." A relatively broad term, the United States Environmental Protection Agency has defined it as "the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances."
Paul Anastas is director of Yale University's Center for Green Chemistry and Green Engineering. Together with John Warner — a chemist who is now president and chief technology officer of the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry — Anastas co-authored the book "Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice," a key body of work in the field.
Speaking to CNBC's Sustainable Energy, he was asked about the relationship between business and science when it came to green chemistry.
"People think I'm joking when they ask, 'how did you come up with this name, green chemistry, all those years ago?'," he explained.
"And I say it's true that green is the color of the environment but here in the U.S. it's also the color of our money," he added.
"So this was about how you accomplish both goals at the same time, that you align environmental and health goals with your economic and profitability goals."

LONDON (Reuters) – Sterling surged on Thursday and hit its strongest against the euro since shortly after the 2016 Brexit referendum after an exit poll indicated Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Conservative Party was on course for a big parliamentary majority.

Investors, chastened by 3-1/2 years of political uncertainty in Britain, have seized on the likelihood of a decisive Conservative majority, believing it will allow Johnson to push ahead with getting Britain out of the European Union at the end of January.
"Just as Boris Johnson was desperately seeking his majority, this result would give the markets their ultimate wish: clarity," said Dean Turner, Economist, UBS Wealth Management.
The exit poll, which suggested Johnson would get a majority of 86 – the largest of any Conservative leader since Margaret Thatcher won in the 1980s – sparked an immediate rally in sterling.

- My Dad's up at 5:00 AM and comes home anywhere between 3:00 and 6:00 depending on how hectic his factory job is. If they do inventory he can be gone till 10:00. He is a supervisor at a plastics factory he's worked at for over 25 years. The factory people always higher a lot of people who "can't handle how hot it is" and won't want to wear the safety equipment, so he either scares the heck out of them with statement "Either you do what you're here to do or I'll show you the door. I really don't care either way." or he rather bluntly asks the people above him why they "hire all the idiots".
- My Dad does try to be helpful and do things for the family, and occasionally succeeds but honestly I don't think he's sure how or what and he won't ask.
- He likes to be doing something. He doesn't mind taking off now and then but he would prefer to have something to do.
- As for arrogance, I never notice that as much, in the true sense of everyone-else-is-dumb attitude, except for packages. He always asks me why I am reading the instructions on a box dinner when they're probably wrong anyway. But when it comes to people he doesn't mind admitting he's wrong as long as there's proof. Which includes to my Mom.
I was reading up on INTJ. It fits totally, I think it's settled on him.
The way you described how he's not sure how or what to do but won't ask seems to be a characteristic of tertiary Fi. They're very awkward about it. Because it's tertiary, they're sort of on a balance between feeling that they should do something and putting their individual values and feelings first. As I mentioned before, tertiary functions tend to be a bit of a problem. Think about our Si. We like to use it for sensing atmosphere, archiving things, picking out the things that work for us and making particular familiar environments and routines, but we have a problem with SJ rules, we don't like closed-minded thinking or too much trust in the past, we're constantly on that balance between favouring the familiar and exploring new things (Ne) and we have trouble with situational awareness and rules or claims to authority that don't fit with our principles or seem logical. IxTJs' tertiary Fi has that sort of awkward balance between wanting to include it and wanting to disapprove of and reject it.
Arrogance was just the best word I can think of. It's more subtle and unthinking than it is intentional. They just say things without seeming to be aware that it could step on someone's toes, hurt their feelings or just be unnecessarily harsh or inappropriate. I meant those times when.... they say things with a tone that is as though they are looking down on the world a bit. It isn't a constant, conscious, 'I am right and everyone else is wrong' state of mind kind of thing.

There's sort of a mixed answer to that. Mostly, that's right. Everyone's individual life affects the exact way their personality turns out and even just on this forum you can see the variety. Everyone has their own habits and has experienced applying and developing their functions in different ways. Also, you get nice and horrible people in every type. On the other hand, it depends what those two traits are that don't fit. They might be important ones that indicate that the person is a different type than previously thought, or they might be minor ones that aren't really type-related or that you have mis-read, or you might be judging them against false information on a type.
(08-13-2013, 08:37 AM)oldfashionedgirl Wrote: As for Mom.... INFJ is close but I'm not positive. Here is why:
Quote:"On the other hand, INFJ parents can also be quite demanding and even manipulative."That is what the type page said. My Mom is not like that. She HATES to appear to be controlling and is always like "I don't want to sound manipulative but..." and id Dad makes a discussion, even if she doesn't fully agree, won't resist, because she says she doesn't want to appear controlling. The idea of controlling, I know, stresses her out.
The key phrase there is "can be". Not all INFJ parents will be like that.
That she says 'I don't want to sound manipulative but' indicates that it is something she might have been in the past and something she pays special attention to avoid. She is clearly aware of the possibility that she could be seen as manipulative.
Also, Fe in general likes to back down to keep harmony rather than battering its way through to get what it wants. People with stronger Fe can find it hard to even know what they want to begin with. Remember, in one of Jason's articles he said we look for clues of our identity because we don't just feel it. That's Ti over Fe. With Fe dominant over Ti, people can get sucked into embodying the identity that they think other people want to see. I always distinctly remember an ESFJ saying that it feels like 'let me be who you want'.
Anyway, check out the INFJadvice tumblr (http://infjadvice.tumblr.com/) for some inside info on what it's like to be an INFJ. See if your mother matches those in any way. If she matches only some of them, then try to figure out which ones and see if they match to functions at all. I'm almost absolutely certain that she has Fe and that she has Fe stronger than she has Ti. I'm also pretty certain she has Ni. So mostly it's the perceiving functions, the order and the I/E you're looking out for.
Is it the idea of controlling, or the idea of being seen as controlling? I'm not entirely certain whether the distinction makes a difference about type or not. I'm finding it hard to connect the fear of being controlling to anything other than strong Fe, and even then it's awkward.
Here are some quotations from INFJadvice:
Quote:Anonymous asked:
I'm extremely manipulative sadly. I use my special familiarity with the human Psyche to play mind games. Is this an INFJ thing to do?
INFJs certainly have all the skill sets to be excellent manipulators but most of the time don't use them. Most of the time we blame ourselves and feel bad rather than manipulate to get what we want. But maybe there are other INFJ manipulators out there? I mean I've done it when I HAVE to but I don't make a habit out of it. It creeps me out because really, I'm scary good at it. I don't want to be like that so I avoid that type of behavior at all costs. Once I started making a habit of it I'd probably take over the world, and no one wants that kind of behavior. Maybe it would help to do some volunteering to get your Fe working in the right direction. It couldn't hurt.
Be nice. Stay Awesome
Quote:Anonymous asked:http://infjadvice.tumblr.com/post/576333...t-it-wasnt
And to continue the manipulation bit, it wasn't immediate. I think what made me feel so awful was that I knew what to say to make my friend believe it. I made them the leader of our magical group that only I could remember, so they felt in control. I created a reality for them that I knew would cater to every need or desire they had. I was aware of what I was doing but it got so hard to stop. Because I knew it made them happy, I didn't want to take that away from them. But also, I felt powerful.
Oops should've included this in the other ask…my bad.
Yea you can easily get caught up in the idea that your doing the person a favor and you can DEFINITELY get caught up in the power of it.
That's why I don't recommend it.
Just be good everyone.
Be nice.
Stay Awesome
Quote:Anonymous asked:http://infjadvice.tumblr.com/post/576331...d-they-can
I really relate with the person who admitted they can be manipulative. It's so easy. I liked to play games of pretend as a kid and didn't want to stop in middle school. The friends I knew in elementary school and I agreed to stop saying "Pretend that..." and just delve into it. I didn't think I could convince someone that my fantasy was real. My friend believed it, and I knew she did but didn't stop because it meant a lot to her. She believed we became witches in our sleep from grade 6 to 8.
Ha! Oh my that's fantastic! I mean terrible….but great. Yea when I was younger I manipulated people ALL THE TIME. I manipulated to get toys, I manipulated to get kids to do what I wanted, and I was never against making up all kinds of stories to trick friends with. I just don't do that anymore because I don't want to be like that anymore. I don't want to hurt the people I love by lying to them. I only use my manipulative powers to get out of a tight spot or use them against someone who did something terrible to me or a friend. I've gotten a little rusty since I was a kid actually. Or maybe it's just my friends aren't easily fooled like children anymore. Either way I'm glad I don't do it anymore. It's like the INFJ rage, it scares me so I keep it under wraps.
But I think a lot of us grow out of it because well, it is rather selfish in nature. I'm not willing to go to such terrible lengths to get what I want. I'd rather do it the honorable way so I know I've earned it.
Be good. Stay Awesome

INFJs may find it difficult to focus and force themselves to complete tasks which are not linked to one of their goals, e.g. some routine administrative work that must be carried out.

You didn't explain this. Why does it not fit your mother?
Also, here's a list of types that have run through my head as ideas so far: INFJ, ISFJ, ENFJ. Some of those were because of functions and others were because of behavioural similarities. But I'm pretty sure about her being an INFJ now. The Ni and Fe were just so clear, as was the balanced Fe and Ti. Also I'm fairly certain there was something I thought could maybe be Se in one of your original posts but I forget what it was.
Also, you can tell Ti people because they don't immediately get bored when you want to discuss things just for the fun of it. Te people always switch off a bit. Even if they don't tell you, they have. My INTJ used to switch off whilst I rambled about something and after a while I caught on and would ask her what she was thinking about when I zoned back in.
Oh, also, I meant to say that another thing I've learnt is that the best way to learn about a function is to look at a type that has it as their dominant. If you turn that around, then look for a function that most embodies the person you are looking to type. If you were looking to define an INTP, you would choose Ti, backed up with some Ne. So, think about the most defining traits of your mother. What would you say if you had to sum up her most characteristic traits? Then connect these to functions, temperaments and types.
Sorry these replies are so long ><
Still talking to myself, and nobody's home (alone).

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a U.S. Muslim Brotherhood entity that is banned in the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist group, is condemningRepublican presidential candidate Donald Trump for supporting the closing of extremist mosques that are "loaded for bear."
Trump's comment came when asked about a British plan to shut down mosques that preach extremism. He initially said it's a "great idea." When asked about such a policy's compatibility with religious freedom, Trump replied, "Well, I don't know. It depends on if the mosque is, you know, loaded for bear, I don't know.

Smokey Robinson: Timeless Love
One of America's greatest musical treasures performing some of America's greatest musical treasures.
Smokey Robinson
Timeless LoveLabel: New Door Records
US Release Date: 2006-06-20
UK Release Date: 2006-06-26
Why established artists keep making standards albums is beyond me. Actually, I take that back. The reason established artists keep making standards albums is pretty obvious: they make money. From Linda Ronstadt's teaming with Nelson Riddle in the mid-'80s to Natalie Cole resurrecting her father's ghost in the '90s to Rod Stewart's career resurgence as the man behind 4,000 versions of The Great American Songbook, the fact is: folks buy albums of old music sung by familiar names.
With Timeless Love, Smokey Robinson becomes the latest artist to throw his hat in that particular ring, and the fact that Robinson's making an album like this raises a handful of questions. The obvious one is this: as front man for the Miracles in the '60s and early '70s, and as the architect for the Motown sound, Robinson practically is the Great American Songbook. The man that Bob Dylan famously called "America's greatest living poet" is an icon of singing and songwriting. His creamy tenor is one of the most recognizable instruments in musical history. Why the heck is he doing an album of standards?
Well, since the hits dried up for Robinson in the early '90s, he's bounced from genre to genre a little bit. After an eight-year absence, he jumped on the neo-soul train with the stunningly underrated Intimate, then went to gospel for his most recent studio effort. In terms of eclecticism, I guess a turn to standards makes sense. But is it any good?
I can answer that question pretty succinctly this way. You know the overused expression, "this guy (or gal) can sing the phone book and make it sound great"? Well, expressions like that were made for artists like Robinson. The man is on the cusp of 70 and he still sounds like he's 20. That boyish tenor is used to maximum effect on this set of string-laden ballads. He still remains one of the greatest romantic singers ever, joining the likes of Al Green, Frank Sinatra, and Luther Vandross. Timeless Love is the perfect aural accompaniment to that very classy special night with the significant other.
Put it to the test: schedule a romantic night with that special guy or lady. See if they don't melt under the poetic sentiment of "Our Love is Here to Stay". Robinson's yearning vocal is perfectly supplemented by a languid sax solo. They don't come much more beautiful than this, folks. And who knew that the man could tackle jazz with such great ease? "I'm in the Mood for Love" segues into "Moody's Mood For Love" (most recently brought back to life by American Idol's Elliott Yamin), and Robinson deftly handles the song's deceptively quick melody. He does the same with an exquisite version of "In Other Words" and a bossa nova-flavored version of "Speak Low".
The album isn't perfect. "Night and Day" seems to be a prerequisite for any standards album, and Robinson's version doesn't differ substantially from any of the versions that preceded it. He makes up for this (and the occasional dip into blandness) with the smooth, finger-snappin' vibe of "I Can't Give You Anything But Love" and a daring meld of the standard "Time After Time" with Cyndi Lauper's 1984 hit of the same name. Equally daring is a version of "I've Got You Under My Skin" without much accompaniment other than some light keyboard and some booming funk bass!
Timeless Love is fairly unnecessary, but it's damn good for what it is. Most of these songs don't need to be touched by anyone ever again, and Robinson's catalog of songs is big enough that there's really no need for him to be singing these. However, the quality of Robinson's vocals alone makes this record worth having. All of us should sound (or look!) this good when we pass retirement age. In the end, Timeless Love is a mostly satisfying piece of work that winds up making sense in a weird sort of way: one of America's greatest musical treasures performing some of America's greatest musical treasures.

Geek-Free Intro to xApi
As adoption of xAPI takes hold, it allows for more robust and interesting tracking of the learning process. As actual performance and results data are integrated with learning metrics, we will have the data we need to tailor the learning process to individual needs at the same time that we can draw more useful conclusions about the learning as a whole across a wider population.
This leaves instructional designers with a set of critical questions: How does this impact my work? What tools do I need? What data should I track? What infrastructure does my organization need to be able to take advantage of this? … How do I do it?
After an introduction to xAPI and how it's different from the SCORM-based LMS environment we're familiar with, you'll have an opportunity to get hands-on with some lightweight xAPI tools to get the hang of it. After that, you'll have a chance to evaluate the tools and options for taking your first steps with xAPI.
Who should attend this class?
- Anyone who is new to xAPI and needs to get started
- Experienced instructional designers who are curious about the opportunity xAPI represents but don't know how to communicate it to get buy-in
- Leaders, managers, instructional designers, and others who need to understand where learning analytics is heading
Where is this class held?
This is a live, online class led by a field expert; and just like an in-person class, it is fully interactive and engaging. The difference between an online and onsite class? No travel! You can participate from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. Many of our students choose to stay home from work on these training days, some never even changing out of their slippers! Where applicable, students can speak with and hear from the instructor and other participants throughout the course as they work in real-time to complete activities.
Need something a little more personal?
We understand your team might have specific training needs and we would love to work with you. We offer both online and on-site instructor-led, fully customizable courses tailored to your training needs.
Email us so we can discuss your needs and set up your custom training »
Session Objectives:
- Define xAPI and describe its advantages over SCORM
- Send simple xAPI statements using a web-based tool
- Use an xAPI statement viewer to see statements recorded in an LRS
- Select data providers (elearning and others) for an xAPI project
- Evaluate the organization's learning ecosystem and how best to include an LRS

Feelings of Attraction, psychologically speaking act as a medication. They're addictive. And if there is awoman'hooked' to a guy, rationale and then her thoughts seem to disappear! She will literally do anything for more of him! From time to time, what a guy states, and the way he acts, or his body language are sufficient to trigger strong feelings in a lady, and, on the flip side, if she isnot'feelingit', then nothing a man does will spark any feelings of Attraction in a lady.
I generally eat healthy. My diet went after the end of my porn video casual sex Centreville for a toss. I used to consume chia seeds. Not anymore. I ate a cupcake everyday. I took a cab ride to the place where I would get my struck in the afternoon twelve, and thought about my fix in the morning. I recall, the cake was moist, tender and tasteless- - it was the cream which felt great. I intended to allow this just in week one, but it turned out to be a normal feature through week ten.
( Yes, I just said accordion lessons. I can't make this stuff up. ) Admittedly, as simple as it might be, the accordion is a very difficult tool to master, but Joseph did it effortlessly. As a result of this, when he climbed into his teens, no expense was spared by her when she bough him equipment for music creation and his granny fuck buddy kiszsenye soared. People took note and he garnered mentors who were well known in the audio market.
Another fantastic way to get fit and keep active is to exercise a combative martial art like Local sluts nude Centreville Jiu Jitsu, boxing or Thai boxing. Nothing wakes up your innate or testosterone instincts such as conditions. There is something about engaging in physical battle raw and primal. Learning defend yourself in battle and to exert your will is a way.
Centreville NB prostitutes on cruise ships number one is going to be a head Centreville. The 2ndis going to be a complete body shot to reveal your physique. The 3rdis a photo of you out in a public location, being social with various other individuals in the picture with you. After that photo number four is mosting likely to be a photo of you doing some type of activity, such as canoeing or rock climbing as an Centreville NB local asain sluts.
For women, it is the exact same. They like interesting little local sluts South Porcupine ON that could provide a spark at the relationship that is relationship. They need a man they may connect with and also has a life of his own. They want a valuable man who can enjoy his own life.
We talked about living together, but that never went anyplace. He had built himself and his puppy this bachelor existence and it looked pretty good. He did whatever he wanted whenever he had a girlfriend for weekend pleasure and wanted all week. And me, I struggled. I wished to live with someone only maybe not him. Each time I looked at him little slot machines went off in my head spinning, turning, the very small symbols flying by. . .
Not only does the couple need to engage in several positive interactions to make up for the conflict, but they've set themselves up for months of disconnection till they accumulate neutralizing, positive interactions to put them on footing.
Another indicator of success rate and a website's reputation is its number of active members. The more energetic members imply the people and the odds of striking a match up.
My danny thomas hookers Manyberries AB girl is a great listener, and that I need her to know that I'll always be the metaphorical and literal chest for her to lay on after a very long day. She is sweet and sensual. Beautiful and courageous. Adventurous and amazing. She enjoys to have a movie- on- the- couch kind of Friday night. She is not the hard- core partier type.
Naturally there are limits. When I was tinkering with this and when Tinder had no rules in their documents I tried out a leading photo of me fucking three women at once to see what could come back. I got the photo removed along with a warning email from Tinder. Up to the point of nudity you can be as provocative as you want though, so it's well worth experimenting with. Don't put a Centreville tumblr desi hookers of your dick.
The way to Prepare for an wonderful Local sluts Whisky Gap AB Dating ought to be a fun. But for most people it can be particularly scary and fill them with dread. Some admit they're concerned the other individual will reject them. Or they fear that they may embarrass themselves throughout the date.
If a younger girl is interested in you then in the least you'll get the opening hi or at past one local anal sluts Centreville New Brunswick. It is possible to do a couple of things to MAKE yourself seem younger which I'll coverin'when you can do it yourself, cheat'.
Men Who Are Too Young For the second time in your life, after that visit to the zoo, there'll come a day in which you find that cougars have made a online dating service means return. This is normally in your twenties. It does not take Demi Moore to inform you that occasionally you'll find a spark with a much younger man than a number of the worn emotionally- jaded older men. In Centreville New Brunswick casual sex scholarly article, being a cougar has gotten so hot that typically all it requires is Centreville NB tumblr local sluts into the regional bar to have a swarm of younger men approach you to buy you a drink or play a round' Allow me to guess yourage' when you hint in the fact that they're too young. When you decide take the chance to find out whether the amount of the years can balance with the standard of your 26, the bet comes.
As a general rule, I think that this is a poor idea. Social networking websites are not designed with meeting strangers in your mind. In fact a few, such as Facebook, tend to have issues with making your information readily available to others. Many individuals use social networking websites to speak with their family and friends, rather than to pick up dates. Others have issues with people assuming they're dating websites. FetLife, a favorite website for the BDSM community has been made as" the Facebook for kinky people" ; it's intended to deliver a network for fellow kinksters, to not help individuals locate a hook- up. This will not stop folks from trying, mind you. . . but that is not what the site is for. People who signed for OKCupid are doing this with the intent of relationship; quite Centreville New Brunswick naked local sluts folks signed up for exactly the identical purpose.
After about three weeks had passed, I was going through my old text messages and saw the one I sent her. I had been drinking that night and sent a text to her to find out if she'd respond. I wrote that I did want to meet with her.
So the last thing I needed to do was marry an older man. That would indicate that statistically, he would not perish ahead of me, but he die of my friends' husbands died. I'd be that only widow woman who everyone acts weird about. The person who comes to Lawn Bowling since she wants a Centreville NB how to find snapchat local sluts out of vacuuming her feelings away, but she actually does not like it, because each time the couples accidently discuss couple things, some moron awkwardly singles out her by saying, " Harold would have adored it. " No thanks.
It was not until a few days later that I remembered, and thought I would try one last time. I fired off an email to him that read: " IS THIS LATE ENOUGH? " Just how succinct a message was? I was kind of proud of myself. Tit for tat, right? ( I'd finally remembered some legal language, though I was not quite certain exactly what it meant. However, it sounded good. ) I'd have the last word, and in the event I did hear back from him, perhaps this guy would learn to write to prospective matches in a fashion.
It's worth contemplating that any exercise before eating breakfast will be burning fat, and also some other exercise following food will probably be burning carbohydrates- your body's fuel. So that the harder you exercise before breakfast the faster you are going to lose weight.
But fine if someone else supplyed them! We're not talking about only one man here; we are referring to as many as you need. And maybe they are only our guys. But we'll get to that notion.
The Old Days Once upon a time- - in fact, just a hundred and fifty decades ago- - men hoarded all the assets of earth. If this was the case, the pub for pleasing one's wife was nearly nonexistent. It had been presumed that by" making an honest woman" of her and providing for her financially, the man had done quite a while. She'd have the liberty of keeping his home and bearing his children. Even men who wooed girls saw no reason. Women were expected to be thankful for this condition of affairs; after all, they had eventually" won" a man. It's not hard to see where this went: men took their rights for granted and marriage became the stage after which they could unwind completely.
From that stage, everything you do should be your best, if it is not, wait and get what you want. Do whatever is needed until you can present yourself. You have one chance to make a fantastic impression.
That means do not show her the sort of treatment that puts her on a pedestal. Is you shouldn't top dating apps bodaad Centreville New Brunswick her like a friend because you show and don't worry attraction to your buddies that are female that are regular.
But why partner a value with a woman, because this woman has needed the FORTUNE to be born beautiful and has not yet proven anything? Being lucky Centreville getting more value? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Thus, relax. A really beautiful girl, excluding the side that is aesthetic, is the same and at the exact same level as any other girl. She doesn't deserve any special treatment. Nor should you learn by a problem that does not exist. On the contrary, you will create issues which Centreville New Brunswick sext local sluts free only end up in difficulty.
Introverts Can Control Their Local dirty sluts freeporn Centreville Introverts know very well as they understand that what makes them emotional, how to take care of their feelings. This quality helps keep their feelings under control in situations that hurt them, make them angry, guilty, fearful or frustrated. They keep calm in front of everybody and can easily conquer the negative ideas. Like to Talk it's correct that introverts don't like small talk as far as extroverts do but that does not mean they are not capable of talking in an intriguing way and creating an dialogue.

VV.AA.: Aural Hypnox - Underworld Transmissions

Aural Hypnox - Underworld Transmissions
Aural Hypnox
On the occasion of the issue of this precious release - or rather a sort of re-release actually! -, some members of the Helixes collective performed some transmissions at Les Voutes in Paris, where they performed some transmissions for the listening and maybe spiritual pleasure of the people, who managed to take part to such a rare event. A certain secrecy, maybe related to banal geographical reasons, considering that the centre of their lodge is in Oulu in the icy region of Northern Ostrobothnia in Finland - is far from any big fancy city, and maybe as they're not really interested in large audiences, made some of their material not so easily accessible also due to the strictly limited editions of the stuff under the imprint of Aural Hypnox. This CD (in 150 copies coming in an awesome package) is the collection of the remastered versions of a series of even more limited (just 50 for each recording) cassettes called "Underworld Transmissions", rare improvised recordings filmed and captured on tape in their subterranean lodge, made by different artists of the Helixes collective, differently combined in different seances. Those boxes of cassettes, including six sessions recorded between February 2014 and April 2015 were sold out quite quickly, so that this edition sounds like a bargain for all those listeners who got trapped by the impressive quality of the output of this mysterious imprint. Some sessions (in particular "Seance II/2014" or the entrancing "Seance III/2014") feature opening stages that sound like preparatory for the transmissions that the artist gradually forge, but it can be normal and I'd say it's the fascinating aspect of any improvised recordings. My personal seances are the opening and, if they are in chronological order, the elder one "Seance I/2013", due to the ancestral fascination of the combination between a sort of sinister horn and a dark choir, supposedly recorded by some techniques adopted for binaural recordings, considering their heavy hypnotic power, and the last two recordings "Seance IV/2014" and "Seance I/2015", mostly for their dynamics whose ascensional crescendo runs parallel to the saturation of the sonic spheres, but the remaining three sessions are likewise catchy. If you're a lover of ritual dark ambient, but simply if you're relatively new to these sonorities (maybe cause you got fascinated by some performance of projects like the one by Phurpa) grab your copy, if you don't have to wait until another re-release.

Alcyone Records
Solo album (sort of) from
, the lead singer of Greek goth-rock band Mosquito, with some of the members helping out on this album. Instrumentally, Mosquito has that typical goth-rock sound ala Siouxsie & the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy, the Cure, Fields of the Nephilim, et al.
's vocals are something else again; an operatic baritone with plenty of vibrato that leans towards the pretentious, then dives right into it with abandon. Not all baritone though; he does sometimes extend his range into soprano with falsetto technique, and even down to basso. Now this kind of works for Mosquito when they're rocking out, but in this solo setting of morbid orchestration largely comprised of piano and heavy (synth) strings it can be difficult to take. It's a bit like Klingon Opera; definitely not for everyone. Themes are ultra-serious and melodramatic wringing out every bit of emotion
can muster. From what you hear you might expect some strange long-haired character draped in velvet and leather but
actually looks very normal. It's hard to reconcile this level grandiosity with anything else I could possibly think of. Even Scott Walker at his most unorthodox doesn't compare to this. Lyrics are in English but I'm not going to do the disservice of quoting any of them out of context here. (Some get a little lost in translation.) It ranges from brooding melancholy to overwrought anguish. There are some who are going to love this, but I'm willing to bet they're definitely in the minority. For me, as a whole '
' was tough to take; a little goes a long, long way.

Children Of The Blackest Hole [EP]
12" + Download
I've said it before - send me vinyl and you go to the top of the review pile. Here's a band who did just that, and all the way from Prague, Czech Republic, and a gothic rock outfit no less. (I'm tickled black by this!) 'Children Of The Blackest Hole' is the debut EP by
Cathedral In Flames
, the band being Phil Lee Fall - lead vocals; Gatsby - bass, programming; Billac de Ville - guitar; Ambra Von Bernstein - backing vocals. The EP is only five tracks but they're all good, and somewhat different. The information so far had to be gleaned elsewhere on the web, being that there was no one-sheet accompanying the album, and nothing on the album but the band name, album title, and track titles. I also have to assume this was self-released as there is no label info either. First, you need to know this is not "modern goth," that sounds either very electro or alternative melodic metal with a sprig of darkness. This is old school goth that harkens back to Sister of Mercy, Christian Death, and Fields of the Nephilim. Great! (There's some labels that could actually use an act like this on their roster...use an act like this on their roster...do I hear an Echo?) Okay, so about Fall's vocals - take a little Andrew Eldritch, and some Carl McCoy, season liberally with Pete Steele, top it off with a dollop of Nick Cave and a touch of Till Lindemann, add a dash of a Slavic accent and you have the voice of
Cathedral In Flames
. Deeply baritone with a whiff of pretentiousness, just the way good goth should sound. Beginning strong with "Red Car," which sounds a little derivative but effective nevertheless, the song has all the hallmarks of old school goth, and a dynamic chorus to boot. Fortunately, all the lyrics are in English. Title track ("Children of the Blackest Hole") is up next with a change of pace, a slower, moody number that shows some diversity in the band with some spot on piano. Ambra's backing vocals on this one adds effective atmosphere. Speaking of atmosphere, "Hungry As The Grave" is full of it, and once again Ambra earns her keep in the vocal department. Instrumentally, the bands works very well together with no one particularly dominating, but all striving together to bring their dark sound to fruition. "Python" is the song I saw in the band's performance video, and I have to say that Ambra appears to be the most animated member of the group, and quite a looker as well. The song is a solid piece of work, although not my favorite on the EP. That honor would fall to the last track, "Gunslinger's Blues," with a Nick Cave meets Ennio Morricone vibe. Plenty dramatic, and a little bit creepy, something you just have to hear. Ambra's vocals on this one remind me slightly of Die Form's Éliane P. This EP is definitely going to leave you wanting more from
Cathedral In Flames
, and I hope they remember me when they put their first full album out. A worthy purchase, and recommended on vinyl, even if you have to jump through a few hoops here in the U.S. to get it, currency conversion and whatnot.

In Flickers
present an excellent, unpretentious, very intimate and at the same time emotionally charged album (which is not a contradiction as
were able to demonstrate with songs such as "She" or "The Path").
The programmed drum patterns are carefully arranged, unobtrusive, but always supportive - mostly mixed in the overall sound: very aesthetic.
The chord progressions of each song are simple / modest, but very fitting and aesthetic as well.
Rock-inspired, heavily distorted guitar and bass are gently embedded in synth sound voicings and fine melody ornaments. They all merge into big ambient soundscapes, over which the fragile, breathy voices of Mike VanPortfleet and Tara VanFlower lie like fog.
The vocals are also kept very simple: very fine, tender and intimate. With Mike, the vocals are more breathy (he might like to show a little more of his vocal sound!). Really nice melodies (mostly "ahh" backing melodies) very clearly sung and with a very authentic, natural sounding voice from Tara. The two voices are really well combined.
The whole album seems to be from one single source: a defined, very meditative mood, with a lot of space and an overall dark-melancholic spirit. Everything is coordinated, partially almost a bit monotonous, mostly calm and with generally little mood and sound contrasts, but with atmospheric-distorted and milky-foggy soundscapes, which definately has its charm. The sounds are very well chosen for all instruments and well-coordinated!
If there's one thing I miss about this album, it's the strong contrasts and tensions. Everything follows everything. Sometimes I really wanted at least a few more powerful sounds to be set in the compositions. The individual instruments and synth sounds could - at least in phases - be played more independently and take up a little more leeway. In this regard, I particularly like "Rewrite" because the bass here is strikingly more present than usual, which is really good! Or "25 Years", in which the vocals of Mike and Tara are set a little stronger. In addition, this song has more metallic, penetrating sounds (somehow bell-like) coupled with more massive drums. Such elements fit perfectly and do not detract from the overall meditative mood.
Most of the pieces sound like they were played or sung through fog, very atmospheric and in places almost romantic-beautiful, in a somber way - obscure and dreamy (pieces like "She", "Mist", "34 Palms", "Late Night Solitude", "Autumn Into Winter"). Songs like "A Failure" or "Mist" are a more rhythmic. I find songs such as "In Flicker", "The Path", "She" and "Rewrite" particularly well done, because they are very defined and original, with all the musical peculiarities of
. "The Path" is extremely atmospheric and expressive and my personal favorite (great drum programming!).
A wonderful album! Especially for those special bitter-sweet, melancholic, dreamy moments when you want to immerse your soul in dark and gloomy moods.
Personal listening tip: "The Path"
What went through my head spontaneously: it could be exciting if there was a collaboration between
and the thereminist and singer Dorit Chrysler - at least for one song. I have the impression that they would fit together extremely well.

Dead Stories Of Forsaken Lovers

It's bands and albums like this that begs the question: "What is Goth (anymore)?" In years gone by it used to be a pretty easy question to answer. Siouxsie & the Banshees, the Cure, Sisters of Mercy? Sure. The Smiths, Gene Loves Jezebel, New Order, Evanescence - not so much. (And for this instance, let's not go down the darkwave road.) So what have we got when a band has a very gothy name (
Vlad In Tears
, sounds pretty bloody gothic to me), a gothy album title ('
Dead Stories Of Forsaken Lovers
'), and the band has a dark gothic look, but the music has all the earmarks of melodic metal. Musically,
Vlad In Tears
has more in common with bands like Amorphous, Dark Tranquility and Ghost (and maybe even Van Halen) than gothic metal bands like My Dying Bride, Lacuna Coil, Type O Negative and 69 Eyes. (Think of
Vlad In Tears
as more of a pop pseudo-goth metal outfit like HIM.) This Berlin-based band was founded by the three brothers Kris (vocals & piano), Lex (guitar) and Dario (bass) and their friend since preschool, Alex (drums). The band, originally based in Italy, started out by playing cover songs but soon created their own (kind of) dark sound. '
Dead Stories Of Forsaken Lovers
' is their eighth album (since 2006) and I imagine they've build up quite a following since their inception. The album consists of 17 tracks, which is six or seven too many in my opinion, but we'll get to that later.
Opening strong with "We Die Together," vocalist Kris set the tone in the tune with a perfect bit of melodic pop metal that perks up the ears and alienates, well...nobody. Never been so happy about a suicide pact for lovers. All the elements are in place, hooks fastened tightly to the skin, a commercial winner all the way around. Bit of a mating ritual in the sexual conquest theme of "Tonite," the obligatory "puttin' on the moves" number. "Born Again" (with guest vocalist Lex Megaherz) isn't about religion (thankfully) but rather being redeemed, renewed and re-invigorated by a woman. By this time the album is settling into that familiar melodic metal groove, and for those who love it, it's well...groovy. For those (like me) finding it a bit clichéd, I'm wondering if this is pretty much all there is here. From a pop metal (emphasis on pop) standpoint, the songs are mostly pretty good. From a goth standpoint though, not nearly brooding, dark or edgy enough. Songs tend to have that modern alternative sound that just seems so ubiquitous in rock today. At least the major portion before the Special Acoustic Tracks ends strong with "Tears Won't Fall," a neat rocker with a few short, mellow breaks. If the album ended there, it would have been just fine, but no- 7 acoustic ballads get tacked on weighing the whole down like a millstone.
First up is a remake of Alice In Chains' "Man in the Box," a pretty big MTV hit for them, but certainly no ballad. It's just Kris and his piano trying to channel Layne Staley's emotion, but he has to work too hard at it to come close. I could have lived with that if it was the only bonus track, but six more follow, and that's just waaaayyy too much. It's not that these minimally orchestrated (piano or guitar, the last being a little of both) tunes are mediocre (they're not), it's just that after a couple of numbers it becomes a yawn-inducing experience. It would have been much better to spread them out over the next few albums rather than shoot the wad all at once here. Also, the way the last song ("Entrapped Soul") just ends inconclusively, it sounds like a demo. Not good. The album would have rated higher if not for those last 7 cuts, which, like it or not are still part of the album.

You asked. We listened. When we published an article on the benefits of using collagen, we were inundated with questions about how to incorporate it into your diet. The first article had mentioned a few ways to sneak this protein-packed, skin beautifying, heart healthy and hormone balancing supplement into your diet, but -- in case you need more guidance -- here's a detailed guide on using collagen.
But first, if you haven't already, read this first article so you can get a handle on what collagen is, exactly, and what it could do for you.
Getting your daily dose of collagen is simple thanks to the supplement, but knowing what constitutes a daily serving is a bit more vague. This is because chances are you don't needcollagen. Unlike many essential micronutrients which your body cannot produce independently and require definitive daily intake guidelines, your body does produce collagen on its own, albeit in decreasing quantities as you age.
However, if you are looking to top up your stores, one serving a day is a good minimum recommendation. A serving can be anywhere from 1-3 scoops, depending on the brand of collagen you purchase. Your collagen container will come with the scoop in it, so measuring will be simple.
Again, this is something we've talked about in the first article, but here's the short answer: for best results, grab a total body, hydrolyzed collagen. This simply means it has all the types of collagen in it that your body produces and can be absorbed quickly.
Anytime, really. It's a source protein that has also been shown to help repair connective tissues and ligaments, so it can be used before a workout or after — or both! The main reason experts say to consume protein post-workout is because protein is harder to digest and can cause GI distress while you sweat it out. Having it post-workout also ensures your get the protein in the timeframe you need it. If you consume protein too far in advance of exercising, it may not be there in the quantities you need it when you finally get around to smashing your workout.
How much post-workout? 15 grams will do the trick.
Can it replace a protein powder? That's the catch: collagen is not a complete protein. It only contains 8 out of the 9 essential amino acids our bodies cannot make on their own — and the balance of the 8 collagen does have is out of whack.
What collagen will do is support the health of joints and connective tissues, which can improve performance during exercise, as well as recovery after. So use it in addition to a good quality protein powder, like Sun Warrior, Yuve, or Nuzest Clean Lean Protein.
But collagen isn't only for days when you're working out. Ideally, you should consume protein with every meal, so you can use collagen even on rest days.
In fact, studies suggest you should use a serving of collagen every day for at least 4 weeks to begin to see results, so if you're using it for the perks, you're going to have to use it regularly.
Our recommendations: Try Total Body Collagen or Sports Research Premium Collagen Peptides.
This is a super easy way to get your daily dose of collagen. Collagen dissolves quickly, and — unless you opt for a flavoured variation — it's completely tasteless.
We love adding a scoop to our morning pre-workout coffee or green tea. Both bevies have been shown to increase exercise performance and fat burn, and, when you this protein-rich supplement to the mix, it's an amazing way to power up your AM sweat sesh.
If you've jumped on the juicing craze, you're doing your body a world of good. In addition to an intense hit of nutrients, adding collagen to your juice can add the protein that will help keep you more satiated, and less likely to snack unnecessarily.
Another simple way to incorporate collagen! You can use the unflavored option, which we prefer because it can be added to anything without affecting taste, but, if you plan to use it in water, primarily, or as extra flavoring for smoothies, then a flavored collagen could be just the ticket for getting a healthy hit of hydration and protein.
Collagen is also a great addition to smoothies and can be used in addition to protein powder for an amped up workout drink. Another perk of collagen is that it makes your smoothie super frothy — more like a milkshake, so it not only enhances your protein intake, but also the texture of your bevy.
We love adding collagen to our Sunday morning pancakes. It's a great way to get the protein that will keep us from stuffing our faces an hour after eating, and it makes the pancakes even fluffier.
Beef up your oatmeal with this amazing supplement. Remember: it will dissolve easily but you will need to stir it in well — especially if you eat your oats cold.
Want fluffier muffins? You know what to do: add the collagen! In addition to your run-of-the-mill bakery muffins, you can also add them to egg muffins. You can find this recipe — and a host of other mouth-watering meal and snack ideas — in our new meal and recipe guide.
Yep! Stir fry! Just dump in a scoop or three, and keep the total body gains coming. Heat doesn't affect collagen's ability to work its magic, so use it with confidence that you'll still reap the rewards of this incredible supplement.
Stir a scoop of collagen into your cup of yogurt. That simple! We don't recommend stirring in much more than a scoop per cup since it can change the yogurt's consistency, given that most servings of yogurt are around ¾ cup.
Next time you're whipping up a batch of your fave, comforting homemade (or, let's be honest, store-bought) soup, dump in some collagen to increase the protein quotient.
How can we get collagen naturally in our diet?
So, I read the article, and am going to get some collagen in on my regimen, but what I really want to know is: The picture of the pancakes, the books in the back. I need to be friends with whomever owns them! I am obsessed with SJ Maas! lol. Please!!

John Wesley Collection (29 vols.)
Founder of the Methodist movement. Celebrated preacher. Abolitionist. Gifted writer. John Wesley is known for all of these great qualities and more. Like his friend and contemporary George Whitefield, John Wesley didn't need a church to preach in—he preached wherever a group of people would listen—a field, a cottage, a town hall. And he did it every day. And although he never officially left the Church of England, the Methodist movement that he planted quickly spread across England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and to colonial America. Today, over seventy-million people belong to Methodist organizations in the Wesleyan tradition all over the world.

The Freight Transport Association has reacted positively to a report today from the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee into sustainability in transport policy.
In the report, the Committee states that fiscal support will be needed along with regulatory reform to develop the market in ultra-low emission vehicles. For cars it suggests reform to company car taxation, and for vans a reform to the weight limitations on alternatively powered vehicles.
FTA's Head of National and Regional Policy Christopher Snelling commented "The Committee is right that more support will be needed for the purchasers of ultra-low emission vehicles if they are to take off in the market place as soon as possible. The suggestion of considering reforming weight limitations on alternatively powered vans is welcome and should be explored further – subject to demonstrating it would not have a negative effect on safety".
Mr Snelling continued: "The missing piece in the report is heavy duty vehicles. From an engineering and technological point of view it is harder to decarbonise larger road vehicles – electric is not an option. Trials of alternative power sources for lorries were made under the Government's Low Carbon Truck Trial and a further low emission freight and logistics trial has recently been announced, but more fiscal support will be needed if these new vehicles are to get taken up by purchasers any time soon. Currently alternatively powered vehicles only make up 0.2 per cent of the UK's HGV fleet."
