There are some big differences.
Is your lucid-dream self really yourself?
I do notice that I can't remember or think as clearly in a LD as in WL, but that's just like being very tired, drunk or have just woken up. That doesn't change the fact that it's stll me. I do notice that i have less bounderies in dreams,but also that's just because you know nothing can harm you.
This depends largely on what you mean by "identity" and "your self". I usually do not try to define myself. For one thing it is difficult, and also it is not much more than a way to set limits for yourself(It is literally what you are doing). I see myself as my consciousness, and that is what I am when I am dreaming, because if "I" wasn't, I wouldn't have any experience of it.
But if we are talking more about personality traits, and how they would be different when dreaming as opposed to when awake I am not sure. Is it not still you if you are in an altered state of consciousness? Is it not you, only feeling different and acting different? What's to say a person cannot be different at different times and still be the same person?
But if I am different in a dream, and I am not myself, then whose self am I? Seeing as it is something happening in my brain, I say that the self that is present in the dream belongs to me. Since that personality is the one I have at that time it must be who I am, and so: I am, a self, that is mine. In other words, I am myself.
In normal dreams i can be alot different from the person i am in WL, and my personality can be totally changed. But i think that most people experience this, as the "logical" allways seems to fail, you(atleast I do) response different to situations in dreams v.s WL etc.? In LD I am more like my self like I am in WL just that i act very different because i know it is just a dream and i can do whatever i feel like without any unwanted consequences. But ofcourse it is me, it just depends on the circumstances.
Mm, but now that I think about this more, I think the question is not necessarily psychological. Is it your "body", just without limitations? Your body is part of who you are, so is your dream body "you?" I myself would prefer to think of it as my dream body is whoever I want to be but can't in WL, so no, I'm not the same in that respect, and I like that. I don't know how much different that is though from what I've said before…
When I think of myself, I'm mainly focused on personality, the mind. The body changes throughout life, but the mind, besides maturing and growing, is usually about the same after awhile.
Thanks for all the responses.
Note that I'm not saying that our dream selves magically jump into someone else's consciousness when we are dreaming. Obviously, it is our mind that dreams but I wondered why it seems to be quite changed in dreams, to the point where you might legitimately ask whether it is still ourself.
I think I am inclined to agree with the people that have said that the dream self seems like a transformation of our normal self.
I feel less inclined to try and LD recently because of this fact that in the dream, I seem very different. When I'm waking I want to LD to enjoy myself but then I am in the dream and it doesn't seem exactly "myself" I am pleasing. This may just be because my lucid dreams haven't been very clear but rather opaque. Hopefully this is the reason and I'll keep on trying.
Sometimes in LD its like If I have multiple personalities in one body the first one is the original and the second one is a character in a movie or something .
I dont think that our whole brain works the same as it does when we are dreaming vs as it does when we are awake. When we are awake we have an explanation for everything. If we see an elephant in a city then we must be at a zoo. When we are dreaming if we see a pink elephant at the zoo that is flying, then we might think that the elephant got some magical paint all over himself that made him fly.
So I believe that we are not 100% our true self in our dreams. Maybe more like what our mind views our self as, or we are a certain "self" that is appropriate for what situation we are in.
Also what if a non-voilent person has a dream where he/she is a mass murder. Is that there true self?
Also I usually never can see my body in my dream, if you are reffering to your physical self, so I cannot comment on that.
Actually, whole dreamworld is you. Only your mind, your memories, your thoughts. So its you, no mather how similar it is to real world.
Then, maybe our LD selves are closer to "us" than our real-life selves.
Is you real-life self really yourself ?
Hm, from much thought whilst in LDs and observation of my dreams, it would appear that when you become lucid, you possess your dream body from your subconscious. As your subconscious is almost like a different person, an alter-ego. When in a normal dream, you do not really have full control of your dream body, as your mind is not in the lucid mindset, therefore your subconscious controls you. Meaning that in a ND you may not be yourself, but when lucid, you are. I can imagine your subconscious still has some influence on you whilst you are lucid, as you are stepping through its world after all.
This is such a reductionist way of looking at the question. Obviously the dream world is made from your mind and only your mind. However, that doesn't entail that who you believe to be yourself in a dream is the same person you believe to be yourself IRL. Your 'mind' isn't necessarily synonymous with 'you'. 'You' is created from different parts of your brain/mind working together. As other posters have said, the power your subconscious has is greater in dreams.
This is an excellent point, and also quite a disturbing one as I don't find myself to be as morally sound in (lucid) dreams as I am in waking life.
I am not talking about your brain, I'm talking about your mind. Brain is the physical part. I believe that the mind is a collective mass of thoughts and memories. And I believe there is nothing else. So your mind, for me, is you. Think of anything that is not a memory nor a thought. You probably won't be able to do that. Which would lead to a conclusion that dreams are you. Because they are only your mind, your thoughts.
I guess it depends on your perspective on the matter.
Is the self a rigid thing or does it have plasticity? When we try to define ourself, do we have a very well defined object in mind, or perhaps imagine that the self is such a well defined object, even if we have not noticed all the details yet? Can it be altered at all, and still remain itself? Where is the limit? For instance, if memories are part of the self, then do we turn into a different person if we forget something? If yes, then we must also turn into a different person if we learn something. If we accept that, we have to set a limit to the importance of the memories. Otherwise it is possible that we are not ourselves after learning simply that we have no milk in the fridge or, perhaps more on topic, that we are currently dreaming.
What about mental states then? Is it not part of the definition of a person that they have different behaviours in different mental states? A person can be a mean drunk, for example. It is then not that they are not themselves, it is that the person thinks and behaves different when he or she is drunk. That change in thought patterns and behaviour can be part of what and who you are. So if you think and behave different in a lucid dream, it is simply because you are in a dream state. And how big is this difference anyway? Is it so big that "you" are missing, and someone else is dreaming?
If we include the fact that we are human, in our definition of ourselves, then is it not expected that a human would be different while dreaming? The brain functions differently at the time and it is entirely expected that the mind would be affected. Just like you would expect that you would think and act different when you are afraid, or angry, as opposed to some other mental state, which you would consider your "default" state. Such a state, ofcourse, is a rather strange idea. And it highlights the fact that we have to consider the "self" IN RELATION TO certain mental states. That is, we have to think, when considering if we are ourselves in a lucid dream, "is this how I would act and think if I were in a lucid dream?" Much like how we would consider how we act and think when we are mad, or sad, or tired, or drunk, to name a few. This means that you can think and behave any old way you want and still be yourself.
Yes, conventionally, it is thought that if someone is in a certain mental state then they are still themselves. If you are drunk you might be very forgetful and a bit agressive for example, but you may still argue that it is still yourself. However, there is obviously a limit. If you radically alter someone's chemical balance then they will be severely mentally changed. To say that they are still 'theirself' just because it is still their physical body completely undermines the whole sense of the term 'self'.
You say that we have to set a limit on the importance of memories because "otherwise it is possible that we are not ourselves after learning simply that we have no milk in the fridge". Well, that is true to a very minor degree. Whenever we take on any new memory or belief we do become very slightly different. Of course, learning some information about your posessing milk does not alter you enough to say that you are not yourself but having an accident that results in you losing all of your memories arguably does result in you losing your self.
Of course your point that we have to expect a certain altered mental state when we are dreaming is completely valid but there is a limit to how changed I can feel that I start to wonder if it is still the person I believe I am, from day to day.
Personally I'm not sure I see dreams in such a way that I might not be myself. I frequently dream of being completely different people, with different lives and stories. I see this as being a sandboxed situation where I am evaluating something to do with my; self, real life, or situation whatever that may be.
Perhaps I can explain better through example, if I am stressed about work, and have anxiety dreams where I am a different person who kills somebody and is being hunted by the police. Then I would say that dream came from my fear of making a mistake and being held accountable for that. I am seeing my anxiety manifesting in my dreams. So given that it came from a real life thought, and what I was currently worried about, I would still see that as being myself, just expressed in a different way.
One thing I want to state clearly is that I see my sub-concious as me, it is part of me, not some separate entity, it is not self aware in my eyes. Its a product of the patterns I am operating with. If I hold the pattern that bad acts are punished, then the reaction in a dream, lucid or not, of police trying to arrest me; isn't because I have upset my sub-concious, it's because its a pattern in my beliefs. Perhaps a subconscious thought, is a good description, but not in the sense that my subconscious thinks, its something I think, I just am not always aware of thinking this, or that I can change it, its a pattern I follow, a program perhaps which I have written for myself.
In response to those who say losing memories means loss of self, I would say we don't remember every memory we have had at all times, often we have reactions that can come from past events we don't even remember. I don't see why temporary isolation from a memory in a dream changes us any more than forgetting some event that happened to us. Even if that isolation is from the parts of ourselves we hold sacred. I see it as a function of a healthy mind, that is looking at things from different angles, and without other perquisites on our thoughts.
GOB- Since you mention the TERM self, the issue of definition comes into view again. It depends on your definition of the self if the sense of it is undermined or not. It is not a clear and obvious thing what the self is. I don't see any obvious reason why a person cannot change and still be themselves. They would change, obviously, but that does not necessarily mean that "the self they were" is dead. I am not sure either if it makes sense to me that you can be one self, and when your personality changes, be some other self which is not you. Then WHO is it that is being these selves? It seems likely to me that this would be the real self. And in that case the contents of your personality are not so important.
Try thinking of it this way. Your memories, are simply things you possess. If you accept that, then no amount of forgetting or learning changes who you are. Because it is still YOU who are forgetting and learning. And if your physical body is not who you are, then your brain is just a possession as well. So if the brain is in a state of dysfunction, it cannot provide you with the memories and abilities you once had, but it is still YOUR brain, your memories, and your abilities. Couldn't you say that if you lose all your memories, you are still yourself, only having lost your memories, like you might lose your house or car or job? Somebody lost those memories- who?
Like GreenDragon above, I have dreamed I was somebody else. Or did I dream it? Was it I who dreamt it being someone else at the time? I had the priviledge of experiencing a shift when this character was falling asleep and WILDed, and during this I realised I was dreaming. I reflected later on that as it happened, it was like I took over. That my self appeared. I was present. Or I realised that I was the one dreaming. Something happened when that conscious awareness came in. Still, I experienced what happened before too. I did, not somebody else. I was the one who in the dream was this different person. Yet the experience was of shifting to the "real me". If anything, the whole experience just made matters more confusing.

Brand new album from the band that brought you "Paris" and Indie Anthem "Jump In The Pool" Arriving eight years after their last album, Inflorescent is the sound of a band rejuvenated and reborn.

ETF usage to surge to $6bn in AUM in 2011, Russell says
- Three new issuers and 15 new ETFs could come to market
- Exchange mergers could be game changers for local ETF market
The Australian Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) market is expected to grow to more than A$6bn in assets under management (AUM) in 2011 Russell Investments said in an analysis of ETF market trends released today. According to Russell, the surge will be driven by providers taking advantage of broader investor community understanding of ETFs and more flexible regulatory conditions.
Since their first appearance in Australia in 2001, ETFs have really begun to experience strong growth in the past year, with almost A$4bn in AUM as of December 2010 (see figure 1 in attached document).
Up to 15 new ETFs and at least three new providers are predicted to hit the market in 2011, Russell said. There will also be more asset classes available and more customised options.
"A year ago ETFs were still regarded as a new product, but we are now seeing a lot of interest from a range of users," said Amanda Skelly, director ETF product development at Russell Investments. "In addition to their continued popularity in the core market of SMSFs, ETFs are likely to win more acceptance from advisers and investment platforms in 2011, and also make inroads into institutions."
A more focused approach
Russell believes the trend for ETF in 2011 will be for more focused, targeted products. For example ETFs will continue to expand across different assets such as bonds and currency.
ETFs based on equities will continue to target exposures to specific sectors and sub-sectors. There should also be new implementation methods for ETFs, such as derivatives-based approaches, where a greater portion of the ETF is invested in instruments such as futures, forwards and swaps. Whether Australian investors embrace this type of ETF will be something to watch. While derivative based ETFs have seen strong growth in Europe, growth has slowed in the U.S. More customised approaches will also be popular, for example the use of ETFs in income-based strategies which became popular last year, the first of which was the Russell High Dividend Australian Shares ETF.
"The market is evolving quickly, there is not only a wide range of ETFs but ETFs are increasingly being used to implement more sophisticated strategies," said Ms Skelly.
Potential global entrants to the Australian ETF market are likely to be assisted by more flexible rules allowing them to enter the local market.
"The success of newcomers will be driven by their ability to leverage existing capabilities and develop relevant solutions for Australian investors," said Ms Skelly.
Meanwhile within the top 15 existing ETFs, secondary market liquidity is likely to improve.
Asian exchange mergers could be game changer
ETF providers will also be watching developments with regards to proposed exchange mergers, which Russell believes will have a positive effect on the local market, by delivering secondary market liquidity and product diversification as well as cost and operational efficiencies.
"If the proposed Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX) takeover of the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) succeeds it will be an absolute game-changer for the ETF market," said Ms Skelly.
"However if the takeover does not go ahead, Asian-based exchanges will continue to expand their ETF capabilities, attracting larger institutional investors which may potentially limit the longer term growth of ETF assets in Australia."
"In the year ahead, we are likely to see a lot of activity in the ETF space and the increased variety and competition will hopefully broaden the appeal of ETFs," Ms Skelly concluded. "Russell is planning to capitalise on this activity and is actively investigating how to build on the success of our first ETF to bring more products to market."

Kristi Yamaguchi Wedding
On July 8, 2000, figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi married professional hockey player Bret Hedican. The couple first met at the opening ceremony of the 1992 winter Olympics in Albertville, France. Neither was looking for a serious relationship at the time as they were both very wrapped up in their careers as professional, world class athletes. At the time they met, Bret was a rookie player on the U.S. ice hockey team, and Kristi was just a few days away from skating her way to a gold medal.
On her wedding day eight years later, Kristi was announced as she arrived on the grounds of Hawaii's Mauna Lani Hotel by the long, ringing blast of a conch shell. Bret and Kristi held their wedding nuptials in the chapel at the resort hotel with 300 friends and family members looking on. The Ms. Yamaguchi's wedding was scheduled for the Hawaiian evening, just … Read More

Poetry Richard Kenney — January 31, 2013 12:14 — 2 Comments
TERRAFORM – Richard Kenney
Then they transformed the air/earth interface
Into a facsimile of the inside of their heads,
Which had been landscaped over evolutionary time, perforce,
By the shape and sharp of the world outside. So far, so good.
The world as it stands is a sort of second iteration
Of the monkey-mind, itself an impression of the surface
Of first earth. Of course, there has been some obliteration
Of detail. Clarity suffers. Nerve's
Sufficiently unstonelike, one does
Wonder how rock's (having sublimated through
The ideational condition) plausibly thawed
Back into something one could actually throw
Through the flickering, tinted, or night-lit windows
Of city planners who think these third-hand thoughts.

Love the poem. But why possessive nerve's, rock's? Oughtn't they be plurals?
I don't think they're possessive; rather the apostrophe esses fill in for ises.

What am I?
Bioluminescent eye
That sees by the shine
Of its own light. Lies
Blind me. I am the seventh human sense
And my stepchild,
Scientists can't find me.
Januswise I make us men;
Was my image then—
Remind me:
The awful fall up off all fours
From the forest
To the hours…
Tick, Tock: Divine me.

chewie81 replied to Sazeral's topic in Game DevelopmentIn the context of the D&D 5e rule system which this will be based on, Zats should inflict Exhaustion levels only and the exhaustion lasts for X time (2 rounds maybe?) unless zatted again which resets the counter and inflicts another level of exhaustion. Also they should inflict the Stunned condition on a failed CON save. You recover a level of exhaustion each turn after you wait out the two round timer. Example - Jack gets hit by a Zat. Jack takes a level of exhaustion and makes a CON save which he passes. Jack is not stunned however the effect of the Zat has made him weaker. Jack is Zatted again the next round inflicting another level of exhaustion and this time he fails his save and is stunned for that turn. Jack is not zatted for the next two turns and recovers a exhaustion level. Thoughts?
chewie81 replied to Mal's topic in Game DevelopmentOK here is my 4 suggestions but first I need to explain some terms Cover - A barrier that protects against both incoming fire and can provide concealment. Concealment - Hides the creature but does not protect the creature from incoming fire, like a bush or tall grass. So I would treat D&D 5e half cover and 3/4 cover bonus to AC as types of concealment. So taking these into consideration we can get into your questions Flanking "When you attack a creature from a direction that is not protected by Cover, you gain advantage on those attack rolls. Targets that have concealment still obtain the increase in AC provided by that Concealment" Example - Bill attacks a Jaffa who is standing in the open without any cover or concealment from a concealed position that provides Bill 3/4 cover. In this instance Bill would have advantage on all his attack rolls made against that Jaffa. If the Jaffa attacks Bill, then the Jaffa would have advantage on his attack rolls but Bills "AC" is 5 points higher due to the concealment he has. If Bills Concealment also provided cover then the Jaffa would not have either advantage or disadvantage but would still need to meet Bills increased AC The idea is to make player choose their cover wisely and not get caught in the open! Suppression Suppression should be a way to impose disadvantage on your opponents attack rolls or completely remove their ability to return fire. However to effectively suppress a target you need to fire enough rounds down range so it should tied to how many time a creature is shot at during a turn. A Wisdom save to ignore the suppression could be used as you keep your cool under the hail of fire. Another Idea is that a weapon could have the suppression attack feature which uses an attack action to instantly cause the affected creature to save against being suppressed My example would be "When a creature is fired upon (insert balanced number here ed 5) times in a turn or is attacked by a weapon that used the suppression feature that creature needs to check to see if they become suppressed. Make a DC15 Wisdom Save. On success you ignore the suppression as you keep you cool under fire. On a failure you can only make 1 attack at disadvantage on your next turn as you fire blindly in the direction of incoming fire." Multi Attack Nothing wrong here totally agree. Damage First thing is what are the damage types available My thoughts would be (Ball) (Armour Piercing) (Hollow point) (Concussive) (Fire) (cold) (Electrical/lightning) (Acid) and all the other types from 5e. Next how do those damage types affect a creature. Creatures could have (Immune - attacks do nothing) (Vulnerable - attacks do double) (Resistant - attacks do half) (Not listed - Attacks do normal) Damage would then be based on ammunition class. Pistol and SMG would be a D4 or D6, Rifle a D8 or D10 A heavy weapon a D12 and explosive could be anything as they are base on how big a bang you want. You then can make weapons fire a number of times per attack making some weapons better than other however they chew through ammo faster. here is an example of the complete damage model Bill has a M4 carbine and the M4 has a magazine of AP loaded. The M4 has a damage die of a D8 and is capable of firing up to 3 time per attack with the last two shot at disadvantage. If Bill fired at a Jaffa that was resistant to Ball ammo only, Bill's AP round would inflict normal damage as it was not listed as a resistance or vulnerability. A M4 would use rifle ammo of the 1D8 type. Bill is able to make two attacks per turn. On his first attack he fires in "burst mode" which fires 3 rounds. 1 normally and the next two at disadvantage. He successfully hits with all 3 rounds and inflicts 3D8 + Dex damage and expend 3 ammo in the process. Bill then uses his second attack action to repeat the process and inflicts only 1 hit of 1D8 + Dex but still expends 3 more ammo in the process. Does that make sense?


text:
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are initiated and sustained by self-renewing malignant stem cells. Any curative therapy for AML or MDS must eliminate leukemic stem cells (LSCs) or MDS hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), respectively, as these are likely the only self-renewing disease cells. Through transcriptional profiling and flow cytometric validation, we previously identified CD99 as a cell surface marker highly expressed on MDS HSCs (85%, n=63). Assessment of 78 paired diagnosis/relapse AML specimens revealed that CD99 is also frequently overexpressed in AML at diagnosis (86%) and relapse (92%). Consistent with CD99's potential as an LSC marker, we showed that the LSC enriched CD34+CD38- fraction of AML consistently expressed higher levels of CD99 compared with more differentiated blasts (p<0.0001). We also found that CD99 expression was higher on leukemic blasts at relapse as compared with diagnosis (p=0.007).
To test whether CD99 expression enriches for functional LSCs, we transplanted the top and bottom 10% of CD99 expressing blasts within the LSC enriched CD34+CD38-CD90-CD45RA+ fraction of a CD34-positive primary AML specimen into sublethally irradiated NOD/SCID/IL-2Rgc-null (NSG) mice, observing that leukemia-initiating cell (L-IC) activity was restricted to the top 10% of CD99 expressors (L-IC frequency 1 in 24,401). Similar results were obtained utilizing a CD34-negative AML (L-IC frequency 1 in 105,688 in the top 10% of CD99 expressors), suggesting that CD99 can enrich for functional LSCs independent of CD34-expression status. CD99 is the first LSC marker reported to selectively enrich for LSCs, as we found other previously identified LSC markers (CD47, TIM3, CD44, and CD123) to be expressed at equal or decreased levels on LSC-enriched fractions compared to more differentiated blasts. Thus, high CD99 expression provides a novel method to purify LSCs, allowing for more refined studies of this critical cell type.
As therapeutically targeting CD99 with mAbs has been proposed in Ewing's sarcoma and B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, we tested the ability of anti-CD99 mAbs to induce cell death in AML and MDS. Anti-CD99 mAbs (clones H036-1.1 and 12E7) were cytotoxic to primary AML blasts (n=5) and MDS CD34+ cells (n=2), as well as 17 myeloid leukemia cell lines in vitro. Normal HSCs and human umbilical vein endothelial cells express low and intermediate levels of CD99, respectively, but anti-CD99 mAbs were minimally toxic to these normal cell types, indicating a potentially large therapeutic window. Ex vivo incubation of primary AML blasts previously demonstrated to engraft NSG mice with H036-1.1 for 45 minutes prior to xenotransplantation completely abolished their engraftment. To rule out an effect on initial homing and lodging of LSCs, and to determine whether anti-CD99 mAbs can eradicate LSCs in vivo, NSG mice were transplanted with primary AML cells, allowed to engraft for two weeks, and then treated with 15 μg H036-1.1 or isotype control. One treatment with H036-1.1 was sufficient to completely abolish engraftment as measured in the BM five months post-treatment.
To determine the mechanism of anti-CD99 mAb induced cell death, we assessed the effect of anti-CD99 mAbs on Src-family kinase (SFK) activation. We demonstrated that CD99 negatively regulates SFK activation in AML, and that cytotoxic anti-CD99 mAbs induce rapid and robust SFK activation. To determine whether SFK activation is sufficient to induce cell death, we generated a constitutively active c-Src mutant (Y530F) and overexpressed it in anti-CD99 mAb "sensitive" and "resistant" cell lines (MOLM13 and K562, respectively). While MOLM13 cells showed a marked decrease in cell growth, increased apoptosis, and G0 cell cycle arrest, K562 cells demonstrated only a modest decrease in growth and S-phase entry, with no G0 arrest or increase in apoptosis. We thus propose that anti-CD99 mAbs induce apoptosis by inducing dysregulated SFK activation and oncogenic stress.
Taken together, our studies establish CD99 as a novel stem cell marker in AML and MDS, and as a promising therapeutic target in two diseases in need of novel therapies with validated activity against disease-initiating cells. Cytotoxic anti-CD99 mAbs appear to exert their effects by activating SFKs, revealing a novel therapeutic vulnerability in AML and MDS that has potential to be exploited using other modulators of this pathway.

Bottorf sets record, twice
Longtime pumpkin grower Richard Bottorf, who lives three miles north of Republic, had a red letter day at this year's Pumpkin Daze held last Saturday in downtown Republic. Bottorf's first pumpkin, at right, set a new Missouri state record weighing in at 1,677 pounds. That record didn't stand long though, as his next pumpkin shattered that total, tipping the scales at 1,798 pounds, surpassing his minutes-old record by more than 100 pounds. Bottorf is no stranger to record setting pumpkins. In 2017, he set a state record with a 1,563 pound pumpkin.

Mehdi Bennani's new Sébastien Loeb Racing Volkswagen also revealed
The paint scheme for Moroccan driver Mehdi Bennani's Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR has also been revealed by his Sébastien Loeb Racing team, with both Bennani and team-mate Rob Huff's cars running an identical livery.
Bennani's car, running the #25 as he has throughout his WTCC career, will run with the same black, grey, white and red livery as new team-mate Huff's car, although with the Moroccan flag on the roof of his Golf TCR.
The 34-year-old's long-time sponsor OCP Group, a Moroccan phosphate exporter, appears as his chief sponsor on the bonnet and the rear doors of the car.

Escape to Disney's Hollywood Studios
Updated: Feb 16, 2019
I think I was putting off writing this post because truly, I just didn't know what to say. And I'm about to say what I want to say, but I'd like to preface it with the fact that Disney is doing a lot to make Hollywood Studios better. There is a lot of construction going on to make way for Toy Story Land and Star Wars Land. But, I am going to say what I feel:
Hollywood Studios is really boring.
They have two amazing rides, right next to each other: Rockin Rollercoaster and Tower of Terror. But other than those two rides, there isn't much to do!
I do like their version of the rides better than I do at Disneyland. For example, Midway Mania is SO cool, all inside Andy's bedroom, with giant toys everywhere making you feel seriously small.
I like that Tower of Terror sort of has this movement, where you're in that room that you travel through with all the Twilight Zone stuff.
But other than that… Thank God they sell beer?
I'm really not going to go off on this post just because truly, we spent about 5 hours at Hollywood Studios for one day of our trip, and that was it.
I cannot wait to go back in a few years with the new editions. I know that the two new lands are going to be incredible, and I can't wait to see them!
No lie, the following is all of the photos we took at Hollywood Studios. All 16 of them. 17 if you count my cover photo above!
Sometimes we smile and have fun on rides....
Sometimes we keep a straight face.
Ran into a Pixar friend at the park!
I got a ticket for loitering... and a ticket for not taking my first ticket seriously.
Life size Andy's room, as in, I'm the toy, everything is bigger than me!
Except this pretzel...
There's Mike again!

City man accused of assaulting girlfriend
Bussey allegedly punched woman, used necklace to strangle her
A city man is behind bars on charges he assaulted and strangled his girlfriend.
Khalil D. Bussey, 25, of Altoona was arrested Thursday by Altoona police and charged with felony strangulation and aggravated assault, along with misdemeanor terroristic threats and simple assault stemming from allegations that Bussey punched his girlfriend the night of Jan. 18 before he dragged her around their home and then used her necklace to strangle her.
According to to the charges filed by Altoona police, Bussey got behind the woman and pulled on her thick chain necklace while telling her he would kill her if she went to the police. Bussey then put the woman in a choke hold until she blacked out, police allege.
The incident ended when the woman got away from Bussey and ran outside to seek help from neighbors. She didn't call police that night and when police spoke to the woman Thursday afternoon, she told them she didn't want to talk to them. Police said the woman told them that even if Bussey was arrested, he'd have someone kill her while he was in jail and he had previously threatened to kill anyone she ever had a relationship with if she ever left him. Police said it was apparent from talking to the woman that she was afraid of Bussey.
When police spoke to her Thursday, she had a bruise under her chin along with red marks around her neck from the necklace where Bussey allegedly choked her. The woman also had a large bruise on her leg near her ankle, and her leg was swollen, she told police, from being dragged around the house. Police said there were medical records that also showed injuries to the woman that she allegedly revealed to a nurse before police arrived to speak with her.
Bussey was taken into custody Thursday afternoon and arraigned before Magisterial District Judge Fred Miller, who set bail at $75,000 cash. Bussey remains in Blair County Prison and is slated to appear at Central Court on Wednesday for his preliminary hearing.

MILLCREEK — Officials are piecing together details after a woman, who was lying down in a parking lot, was run over by a police car Tuesday night, officials said.
Police don't yet know details about the woman's condition before the officer's car hit her.
A Unified police officer responded to a call of a welfare check in the Highline Plaza near 2300 East and 3300 South about 11 p.m., according to Unified Police detective Ken Hansen.
As the officer was pulling into the parking lot, his car ran over a woman who was lying in the parking lot, Hansen said. The officer apparently did not see the woman, according to police.
"Usually when you find a homeless person down usually they are close to a building maybe sleeping or something like that," Hansen said. "This person was dressed in dark clothing. So the officer came in, apparently didn't notice or see this person was down on the ground"
The officer tried to perform lifesaving measures on the woman, but she died on scene.
The medical examiner will try to determine if the woman was already deceased when the officer's car hit her.
The woman's name has not yet been released. Police say she was 25 years old and from Georgia. Police had received several calls about her over the past week, saying she was living in various parking lots in her car.
The officer is on paid administrative leave, as is standard procedure.
Salt Lake City police are investigating the incident.

The temple of Maa Tara, situated on the peak adjacent to Shimla, is a fulfillment of every desire. Built around 11 km from Shimla city, this temple is quite old. Every year millions of people reach here to take blessings of the mother. Tara Mata temple can be visited while traveling on the Kalka – Shimla National Highway. The Tara Devi Temple is situated at the top of a hill in Simla and the lush green environs surrounding it give the temple a very peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.
Tara Devi temple is believed to be built around 250 years back. It is said that idol of Goddess Tara was brought from West Bengal to Himachal Pradesh by the ruler of Sen Dynasty. As far as the construction of the temple is concerned, King Bhupendra Sen built the temple of the Godess Tara. It is believed that once Bhupendra Sen went hunting in the dense forests of Taradevi, he had a vision of Goddess Tara along with Hanuman, who desired that she should be available for the public to pray and seek blessings. After this, the king started building a temple here.
The king donated a large part of his land to build the temple. After some time the work of the temple was completed and the idol of Goddess made of wood was placed here. After some more generations, Raja Balbir Sen had a vision in which the Goddess had wished that she be installed at the top of a hill known as Tarav Parvat. Later on, the temple got shifted to the top of the hill with a much attractive idol of the deity, made out of a rare combination of eight elements "Ashtadhatu". This temple built on the peak has dense forest on one side and roads on the other side. This temple is now also connected to the bus service. There is also a Shiva stepwell in the adjacent forest.

Much like the actual cast, the cops of "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" do an excellent job. Perhaps a little too good.
Detective Jake Peralta's (Andy Samberg) rag-tag crew is so proficient, as a matter of fact, that the crime rate in their borough is down significantly, Captain Holt (Andre Braugher) tells the team in Tuesday's spring premiere. That earns a well-deserved round of applause from the room — but it's not all positive.
With fewer criminal activities, the borough of Brooklyn will be shuttering down one of its precincts for good, Holt warns. His Nine-Nine feels pretty good about its chances of survival — that is, until the official auditor turns out to be Amy's (Melissa Fumero's) ex-boyfriend, Teddy (guest star Kyle Bornheimer). Let's just say they had a rough breakup. And let's just also say that it was pretty much Jake's fault.

Can Jordan Spieth, Adam Scott or last year's winner Danny Willett join prestigious group of multi-time champs?
As CBS announcer Jim Nantz famously described it, the Masters is "a tradition like no other," and these golfers have achieved a level of success at Augusta National Golf Club that most pros can only dream of. With one of the game's four major tournaments teeing off on Thursday, TheWrap compiled the list of all 17 multi-time Masters champions. Nine of these polo-shirt wearers have won the 72-hole competition twice, which means the other eight own three or more green jackets.

Summary List Placement
For millions of Americans this week, a temporary $300 bump in their unemployment checks will be their last.
Funding for President Donald Trump's $300 unemployment benefits is starting to run out, leaving nearly 30 million people on unemployment benefits with only a fraction of their past wages.
In a statement to Business Insider, the Federal Emergency Management Agency confirmed on Thursday that states setting up their Lost Wages Assistance programs will get six weeks of funding dating back to August 1.
That puts the end of the federal initiative at September 5, the final benefit week. At least five states already paying out the money announced an end to their programs in recent days:
New Hampshire
Last month, Trump approved the creation of the program using $44 billion in disaster relief funding from FEMA after negotiations on another coronavirus relief bill collapsed.
Michele Evermore, a policy expert at the National Employment Law Project, described the initiative as "too little, too short, and too late.
"This was in no way a substitute for an actual extension," she recently told Business Insider.
Normal state unemployment benefits, which typically cover about 30% to 50% of a person's past wages, will continue in states where the Lost Wages Assistance program expires.

The average unemployment check amounts to roughly $330-per-week — a dramatically smaller figure compared to what millions of people had received in the spring and summer.
From March to July, Congress had authorized a $600 federal supplement to state unemployment checks through the CARES Act. Many economists said it helped maintain consumer spending for groceries and other essential goods even as the pandemic hit the economy.
But it expired amid fierce disagreements between both parties. House Democrats passed legislation that would reinstate the $600 benefit until January. But Republicans staunchly opposed it, saying it disincentivizes people from seeking work. Several studies have contradicted their argument.
Democrats blocked a slimmed-down GOP stimulus bill on Thursday, dimming the prospect of more federal aid arriving to jobless people anytime soon. A top Senate Republican said additional assistance may not arrive before Americans cast their ballots in November.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell echoed that sentiment during an event in Kentucky, saying lawmakers are in "a challenging period."
"Regretfully, I can't tell you today we're going to get there… I wish I could tell you we were going to get another package but it doesn't look that good right now," he said.

Catholic Creative: An Entrepreneur
An interview with John Hart, founder of Feast Day boxes
"My passion is really to help Catholics model the domestic church more closely to the Mass and liturgical calendar, to make the time at the table more spiritual, using tradition to connect with Catholics of the past, present, and future and helping us grow closer to Christ."
Katie Warner interviews Catholic artists and artisans about their crafts, asking how their art impacts the Church and their faith impacts their work.
Tell me a little about who you are and about your craft.
I'm a cradle Catholic from Kansas City. I grew up in a parish where the faith was a natural part of life. When you did things, you probably did them at the parish. Growing up in that environment led to a love of the rituals of the faith, those in the church and those in the home. Now, a husband and father of three, living in a time when living liturgically, even a little, can be difficult to manage, I'm hoping to help others make the faith an everyday part of their life.
When did you start your liturgical living subscription box service? What inspired you to do this as a career, part-time work, ministry, or hobby?
The idea for Feast Day started years ago when I saw a recipe for St. Martin's goose in a Slovenian cookbook. I was moved by the way folks in Europe commemorated St. Martin, and why they observed his feast day so elaborately. I knew I wanted to find a way to help families connect with the faith through food and celebration but wasn't sure how. I started investigating other interesting foods that had been eaten in different places and times to celebrate certain feasts and seasons of the Church. I discovered a long list of traditions but also found that several folks had the same interests. There are many fine books on the topic. However, even with cookbooks, some of the foods are so unusual to the modern American it would be too costly, timely, or difficult to try to make many of the recipes with all the other demands most families are under. Last Lent, I finally realized that the subscription box model might be the most convenient way to help others experience these traditions.
How does your faith influence your work?
Feast Day wouldn't exist without my faith. I enjoy food, but I don't have a passion for it alone. My passion is really to help Catholics model the domestic church more closely to the Mass and liturgical calendar, to make the time at the table more spiritual, using tradition to connect with Catholics of the past, present, and future and helping us grow closer to Christ. There are plenty of places to order delicious food. We're different because we source a wide variety of food from all over the world that isn't just delicious but has meaning based on the Church calendar.
How does your work impact your faith?
The impact isn't one I had expected. I expected to impact the faith of others. But starting a business was never something I had planned and it's all quite new. It initially took a lot of trust to make the decision to do it, but since then, while learning new things and facing new challenges, it has demanded my trust daily. It's teaching me more and more to abandon myself to God and trust in him.
Can you pick a favorite project you've worked on recently? Tell me a little about it.
I've long loved the apparition of Our Lady of Lourdes, and this devotion has grown considerably over the last few years. Our February boxes paid a lot of attention to her feast. We liked it so much that we had to put together a special product, the Lourdes Shopping Bag, to keep available for all those who might be sick or suffering. It contained an easy mix to make cassoulet, the classic film The Song of Bernadette, a bar of Immaculate Waters soap, which contains water from Lourdes, and a pocket prayer book with the novena of Our Lady of Lourdes.
Why do you think Catholic art has such an important role to play in the Church?
It is impossible for me to respond to this question without bringing up Dana Gioia's essay "The Catholic Writer Today." It discusses the decline of prominent Catholic writers in contemporary literature and of prominent Catholic artists in contemporary culture. Why does this matter to the Church? Gioia says, "The loss of the aesthetic sensibility in the Church has weakened its ability to make its call heard in the world... The loss of great music, painting, architecture, poetry, sculpture, fiction, and theater has limited the ways in which the Church speaks to people both within and beyond the faith." This topic was important to Pope Benedict, also. If Catholicism is important to us, it has to be a major part of our identity; it has to be present in our culture.
To whom do you turn for inspiration?
We're only half joking when we say the company is run on signal graces and roses from St. Thérèse of Lisieux, so Mary and St. Thérèse are certainly among those we rely on. I've certainly turned to St. Joseph over this work. But it is probably a devotion to the Divine Mercy that started everything. Without that devotion, the trust in God to try something new would have never been there. And when I struggle with trust day-to-day, I constantly think about passages from St. Faustina's diary.
Name one piece of advice/wisdom that has had a great influence on your work.
Before opening the online shop, I was worrying about all the things that needed to be done and was considering dropping the idea before I got any deeper into it. Then the thought came to me: "Go and fear nothing," and I was immediately calm. Our Lady of Good Help is famous for saying, "Go and fear nothing. I will help you." I think of this often. Jesus reminds us to trust in him and not be afraid. Mary also reminds us not to be afraid; she's there to help.

The Project – Barnardos Mother of the Year 2020 is Margie Bailey from NSW
'The Hardest Part Is Saying Goodbye': Mother's Day Honoree Opens Up About Being A Foster Carer
The recipient of this year's Barnardos Mother of the Year award has welcomed over 100 children into her home in the last 35 years.
Chosen from a national shortlist of eight finalists by the children's charity, NSW mum and foster carer Margie Bailey spoke to The Sunday Project after receiving the honour today.
"It's a beautiful honour, just an incredible shock," Bailey told Susie Youssef, adding that being named Australia's number one mum was "very humbling".
Bailey and her husband Ron began their journey as foster parents when she was just 24 after the couple, who had young sons, found out they couldn't bear any more children of their own.
"We had realised that we wanted to continue to parent, and we felt really lucky and thought we could give a little back," Bailey said.
"We were in our early 20s, and we didn't know anything and we gave it a go and we've just continued for 35 years and we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into," she added.
Bailey explained that taking on the responsibility of fostering children is a "package deal" that involves a relationship with the families of the kids she's helped to parent.
"It is so important, if you want to foster, it is a package deal," she said.
"The families are always there, the birth families, the grandparents, the siblings, if we can all work well together and show each other respect, fostering can be incredibly successful," Bailey added.
After 35 years, the foster mum said the hardest part of the job was "saying goodbye".
"It is always painful and there is a lot of grieving involved, but that's okay, that is also part of the deal of fostering with us," she said.
As tough as it is forming a bond with children in her care who then eventually leave the Baileys' Newcastle home, Margie said she wouldn't trade it for the world.
"Fostering is really difficult. Not fostering is so much harder. It's just - yeah, I just - it is a really hard not to foster, I think about it all the time."

PROPERTY NEWS - As a homeowner, one of the New Year's resolutions you should really try to stick to is to keep the maintenance of your property up to date.
That's the word from Gerhard Kotzé, MD of the RealNet estate agency group, who says that this will help you to spot and fix many minor problems before they become major repairs requiring budget-breaking expenditure.
"It is also no secret that well-maintained homes sell quickest, whatever the state of the residential property market, so sticking to a 'preventative maintenance' plan will ensure that your home is always sale-ready," he says.
"This can also be a big money-saver if an unexpected chance for a great home upgrade comes along or a new and better job opportunity appears and makes fast relocation essential.
"You won't have to come up with a large amount of cash to catch up on deferred maintenance to get your home in shape before you can list it."
If you have a pool, keep it clean to avoid an expensive draining, re-surfacing and re-filling exercise.
Do the following to ensure minimum-pain, ongoing maintenance:
- Plan major jobs such as re-painting in advance so that you can break them up and keep your annual maintenance expenditure within limits. For example, you may want to paint the interior of your home one year, the exterior the following year, the roof the next and the windows, doors and frames as a separate project.
- Check regularly for roof leaks. If you fix a leak quickly you will probably avoid having to repair a ceiling, repaint a wall or replace a cupboard or carpet.
- Check plumbing and irrigation systems often for blockages and leaks. Small faults can often be repaired by the homeowner, but leaving them until a major overhaul is required will probably require the services of an expensive expert.
- Attend to small repairs as soon as you can, whether it's a hinge on a kitchen cupboard door, a dripping tap or a cracked windowpane. Don't let them mount up until you have a massive to-do list.
- Keep your garden tidy. Even if you don't have a "green thumb", you can mow the lawn, sweep the paving and trim shrubs and trees to give your place a well-kept look.
- Remove any rubble and garden refuse regularly in small loads and avoid having to call in a waste removal service to take away a mountain of junk. It may be worth paying for a weekly garden drum service if there is one in your area.
- Clean any fitted carpets regularly to ensure that they always look their best, and reseal or varnish wooden floors and decks before they start looking shabby.
- If you have a pool, keep it clean to avoid an expensive draining, re-surfacing and re-filling exercise.
In addition, says Kotzé, it's a good idea to keep a maintenance log or journal from the time you move into your home.
"This will ensure that no essential tasks are missed, and reassure potential buyers, when the time comes to sell your property, that it has been well maintained and is in great condition."

Guildford School of Acting is one of my favourite drama schools. Getting to spend 2 weeks there in the summer of 2016 and attend their Pre – Audition course that following September. I auditioned for this course last year with no luck but this year I feel a lot more confident and ready for this years attempt. Unlike last year I was able to audition at the GSA Campus which made me feel a lot more at home as I knew the building. Also unlike last year, GSA have added a dance call into their first round auditions as opposed to just singing one song. This made me a lot more nervous as dance is not my strong point.
Sending off Applications:
Due to GSA being a part of the University of Surrey you also apply for them through UCAS. Once it has gone through and you have sent off your application you will get an email from Surrey Self Service which will link you to their applicant portal. This is how you will track your application.
In your email from Surrey Self Service it gives you a personal ID which you will use to log on and by heading to the 'events' page you can pay for your audition which will then be processed. When they have finished processing they will emailing you saying the dates re up for you to choose from. My acting email came through the next day giving me the dates but MT took a while and in the end I emailed them and they were like sorry here you go.
When you have selected a date and time and confirmed there are two documents you can download, one about the structure of the day and the other about all the information of what you need to wear, bring and prepare.
What to prepare:
For this audition you only need to sing one song of around 2 and a half minutes.
For the dance call you don't need to prepare anything you are taught a routine
You need to bring a passport size photo.
The Audition:
Dance Call: In the dance call we started with a light warm up of Plies; Isolations; Stretches;Body Combat; Press Ups and Flat Back exercises.
Then we headed over to the corner where we were taught a sequence from the corner which included kicks, a pirouette a jump and some other footwork. After having a quick practice all together and asking some questions we had to do it in twos whilst he watched and marked it.
Singing: As I was one of the first to do the corner work sequence I was 2nd to sing in this part of the audition. We did do a warm up and the dance teacher was also on the panel alongside the head of singing who would actually be doing the auditioning. It was nice to have the dance teacher there as that meant someone was actually looking at you and watching you which tends to make it easier. Overall I think it went alright I messed my words up but I doubt anyone noticed.
