Got some tips to share with you today from my friend Dr. Dan Ritchie. Dan owns two training centers in Indiana, and specializes in working with "older adults" in the 50-70 age range.
I got to hang out and chat with Dan last month in San Diego, and came away with so many great actionable pieces of advice on training the older adults we work with at FVT.
I wanted to share with you Dan's "7 Laws of Functional Fitness for Older Adults". These laws are based around what he's learned in working with over 2000 clients in this age group at his training centers in Indiana over the last decade or so.
Thanks -

7 Laws of Functional Fitness for Older Adults
by Dr. Dan Ritche, author, The Functional Fitness Solution
1 – Train All Components of Function
There is a long list of variables that contribute to physical function and muscle strength is only one of these components. All of these variables are important to the
successful completion of functional tasks such as walking, stepping, bending, reaching, lifting, etc. because physical movement is quite complicated. Even the seemingly simple act of walking requires the contribution of around 200 different muscles each playing their part, great or small, to accomplish this task.
2 – Be purposeful
I often stress with my students and trainers I am teaching that at any point they should be able to answer the question "Why are you doing that particular exercise for that particular client at this point in their training program?" There should be a solid purpose for every exercise movement and every variation that is used and, if not, it needs to be re-evaluated.
3 – Train in all 3 planes
Life is three-dimensional. You reach, bend, lean, turn, twist, stoop and change directions constantly throughout their day. In essence, you continually face challenges in the front to back, side to side and rotational planes – these are the 3 planes of human movement.
4 – Train movements before muscles
As discussed earlier, traditional strength training exercises offer some benefits for combating sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass due to age,) building strength, and, to a lesser degree, for improving function. So it is difficult to conclude that these exercises are not functional at all.
Even arm curls are functional to a certain degree because you have to use your biceps to lift or pull objects. So it is better to view exercises along a functional continuum with some exercises having a more distant relationship to functional performance (e.g. less functional) and others having a closer relationship to functional performance (e.g. more functional).
** If you like this article, also don't forget to check out Dr. Dan's complete program, the Functional Fitness Solution, HERE **
5 – Stand up, Stay up
The majority of exercises should be performed in a standing or semi-standing position (e.g. kneeling, half- kneeling, lunge, etc.). Mobility and balance are best
improved in standing positions. The standing position utilizes many more muscle groups than sitting and is a more complex neuromuscular challenge that requires greater degrees of strength, proprioception, center of gravity control and postural stability.
In addition, it is much more difficult to give multi-planar challenges (see Principle #1) while seated. Therefore, seated exercises should be used minimally in a functional exercise routine.
6 – Complicated first, simple last
During the course of an exercise training session it is typical for energy and focus to wane as both muscle and mental fatigue set in. For mature clients this loss of energy and focus can create potentially dangerous scenarios and increase risk of injury (discussed further in Principle #7). The longer the session continues the more likelihood that attention and performance will wane. You should always be mindful of your level of fatigue and adjust your training session accordingly.
7 – Be safe to be successful
Getting off the traditional exercise machines in order to perform standing, dynamic, multi – dimensional exercises of increasing complexity brings with it an increase in risk of falling and injury. Therefore, it is your responsibility to take the appropriate measures to ensure safety while maximizing the potential for success.
Thanks again for sharing these great tips with us Dan!

Malta: Webrothers welcome visitors
A community of Capuchin students and their director, from the Floriana Friary on Malta, have set up an interactive website which enables webvisitors to share in their daily lives. Brother Hayden Williams said: "Our aim is to share with you our simple way of life through the internet. We want to share our way of life in brotherhood, in all its simplicity of prayer, work, study and leisure in a new and innovative way. Since we are now in the cyberspace age, we called the site and ourselves: Webrothers! "What motivated us to take this initiative was the slogan launched by Pope Paul John II, that of the new evangelisation, which encouraged us all to make Jesus present in the hearts and lives of others. We wanted to evangelise as a fraternity, as a brotherhood. You can view us LIVE, through the installation of webcams in parts of the friary. "So far cameras installed have been placed in our living room and the chapel, where daily Eucharistic adorations are held. A Webrother is also always on call during the adoration and people can contact us on mobile phone or via SMS to request a prayer. A Webrother is also available to chat from the friary's living room where a webrother can be watched and spoken to LIVE. "The website offers you, surfer, the opportunity to send a prayer request, and moreover includes articles written by the Webrothers themselves, news, event and photos. The Webrothers can be contacted via e-mail. So until we meet you on the web, we wish you: Happy Websurfing. Bless you." To visit the Webrothers click on: www.studentscapuchins.tvheaven.com

Rebel fighters seize Gaddafi family treasures
It could have been the contents of an upmarket car-boot sale but the jewel-encrusted sword waved above the rebel Libyan fighter's head told a different story.
A white pick-up filled with enough treasure to stock a small boutique was picked over by a unit of Libyan rebels sent to Tripoli to liberate its residents from 42 years of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's rule.
On top of his Nike baseball cap, Nasir Tahrar, a 16-year- old fighter, had placed a general's hat and starred epaulettes on his narrow shoulders. Despite his clownish appearance, Tahrar provided the clue to the erstwhile owner of the gear, Saadi Gaddafi, the Libyan leader's third son.
"Saadi Gaddafi's house," he said "Don't mind us, we are very tired but happy."
Not far down Tripoli's western Corniche, rebel lines had formed as regime gunmen fired shot after shot against the incoming tide of opposition supporters.
Three miles away the rebels had ringed Col Gaddafi's Bab al-Azizia fortified compound. But they could not contain the menace of the regime.
While the dictator languished in his bunker or, possibly viewed the spectacle from a far-off refuge, the city he ruled with an iron fist had fractured into a free-shooting zone. It was impossible to know where the regime's roaming marksmen were likely to pop up.
Driving along Tripoli's streets was a lottery of timing as rebels from across the western mountains converged to confront the regime's fighters. As the day progressed the exchanges between the two sides became progressively heavier.
It wasn't long before the unit commander decided that outside eyes should not witness the scene and roughly shoved strangers away. There are worst fates. Saadi Gaddafi, who used a villa in the compound as a beach house, was arrested by the rebels on Sunday night in Tripoli.
Saadi, a football fanatic, was yesterday in rebel custody.
As the battles rolled only Green Square, now popularly known as Martyrs Square, had a morning after feeling. Locals were free spoken in their condemnation of Col Gaddafi. "Game over," said Abdullah Mohammad, a retired banker. "Its 99 per cent over but whatever happens he's finished." (@ Daily Telegraph, London)

Mad Max Computer & Console Video Games
Roadkill Warriors UT2004 Mod
Note: As of late 2011, the "roadkillwarriors.com" site has gone offline - I have left this reference page for the game, but this may no longer be a running project.
This project was originally developed as a mod to Halflife 2 / Unreal Tournament 2004 (UT2004). The project has more recently moved on from that technology base, and the current work in progress uses Epic Game's Unreal 3 engine. The Roadkill Warriors web site describes the game as follows:
RKW mixes firstperson & vehicular combat aswell with semi-realistic gameplay in a post apocalyptic world. Our goal is to give the player a sense of realism but without removing the arcade style gameplay.
RKW is influenced and inspired by well known MAD MAX movies and games like Interstate �76 and Carmaggeddon series plus many more
A quick browse through the site, particularly the media section, reveals some familiar looking vehciles (these are taken from the original UT2004 mod version)...
And of course weapons...
Head on over to the Roadkill Warriors web site for downloads and futher information.

The return
Santa was good to me this year, as he so often is. That said, Red and I always set a fairly modest budget for ourselves to spend on each other, so it's more a case that we use our imaginations and try to buy each other lots of cool little things like CDs, DVDs, and books.
Among other books I received Cormac McCarthy's The Road in hardback, which had been on my wishlist since Candy wrote this post on her blog. I've only read three pages so far, and although I didn't like the style of the first page and I don't like the lack of apostrophes in the words "can't", "won't", "hadn't", etc, I do have high hopes for the story.
I had a few DVDs, too, including the Criterion edition of Sam Fuller's The Naked Kiss, so look out for a review of that at Such As They Are over the coming days. I already have a list of nine films waiting to be reviewed over there, so keep checking it out for updates. Earlier today I posted my 60th review over there: Tears of the Sun. And why not link the site while you're at it? Links mean love, and I'll obviously give you a link in return. xxx
On the subject of movies, I got a subscription to Sight & Sound magazine. I used to subscribe years ago, but I stopped... Not sure why, now. But I feel so out of touch with what's new in film despite spending time at other movie-review sites. The main problem is that so few of the movie sites I have found give any real space to non-Hollywood films, and that is something I miss. This subscription will redress the balance.
The biggest present I received was a whole absinthe kit and caboodle: a bottle of the drink itself, two glasses, one of those snazzy sugar spoons, and an iced-water dispenser with two taps. It looks great, and I'm looking forward to getting tucked in. Once I do, I'll take a pic and post it here. Red is keen that I don't go insane on the absinthe and murder her, though.
I hope you all had your Christmas wishes and dreams come true.

This belt is terrific - very comfortable and doesn't bounce.

Sometimes when you are wronged, it can be extremely difficult to forgive that person for what they have done, especially if they do it over and over. So how do we forgive them? How do we forgive 70 x 7 times, and what does that mean?
Jesus tells us in Matthew 18:21-22,
Then Peter came and said to Him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.
So was Jesus instructing Peter, and ultimately us to just forgive a bunch of times? By no means. There is such a deeper picture that Christ was painting for the disciples at that time. When reading this scripture and many others, you have to understand that Jesus was a first century Jew, and what that would look like for him. So, let's look at what he was really trying to say.
What does it really mean?
You seen when Christ gave the example of 70×7, he wasn't just saying forgive 490 times. (70×7=490) Christ was actually alluding to the 490 years that the Jews had spent in captivity and slavery. They were taken from their homeland, their families were torn apart, and they were enslaved, along with many other atrocities that they endured.
He was saying even in the hardest of situations, forgive. Even after their enemies had hurt them and wronged them for almost five centuries, He was teaching them to forgive. He knew what harboring the unforgiveness would do them no good.
There's an old saying that says,
Harboring unforgiveness or bitterness, is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
He goes on to teach them in a parable about a king that forgave a great debt for a slave, and then the slave went out and demanded a small sum from a fellow slave. When he could not pay, he had his fellow slave thrown in jail.
Christ was in the grand scheme of things showing us how the Father continually forgives us of great debts.
Going The Extra Mile…
Just a few chapters back in Matthew 5:40-48, Christ paints an even grander picture for us.
If anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks of you, and do not turn away from him who wants to borrow from you. "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Now take what Christ said in chapter 18 and tie it into this. Christ was telling them forgive even in the most difficult of situations. The Jews were still under Roman oppression. A Roman soldier could pretty much demand anything from them, and they had to comply.
A soldier could and would force a Jew to carry their pack for a mile, even on the sabbath. Technically doing that much work on the sabbath was forbidden by Jewish law. But, again, Jesus going against the grain, told them to forgive the soldier in that instance and gladly go the extra mile.
Love Your Enemy
In verse 44 He instructs them to love their enemies. The enemies that he was discussing was any person who had a deep hatred for them, even to the point of wanting them dead. This would be those who held them in captivity and those who ruled over them currently. It can also be applied to simple "enemies" such as a neighbor you are feuding with, but the greek word means so much more than that. You can find a great article on this from Patheos HERE.
Loving your enemy is much greater when we tie it in to what else Christ said. It is easy to love those who love you, but Jesus was teaching his disciples to go to the next level in their relationship with the Father.
So I challenge you to rethink forgiveness the next time somebody wrongs you. It may be difficult, but think of how difficult it must have been for first century Jews to take this command.

A message from the CDC
In anticipation to today's release of the movie Contagion, please note the communication below from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This information includes talking points on the importance of public health in preparing for potential health emergencies. It also provides a website created by the CDC Foundation to help separate fact from fiction and to highlight the CDC's role in preparedness and response.
Dear Colleague,
On September 9, Warner Brothers will be releasing the movie Contagion, a fictional drama that portrays CDC and other U.S. and international partners responding to an emerging infectious disease outbreak. We are reaching out to you in an effort to take advantage of this opportunity to provide accurate and potentially life-saving information to the public about how to prepare for a public health emergency.
When asked to respond to the inevitable question about the plot of the movie, "Could this really happen?" CDC is compelled to say, "Not only could it happen, CDC scientists are working 24/7 to find out if it's happening right now." The following websites are being highlighted to enhance your awareness, particularly during September (National Preparedness Month).
* CDC Preparedness Information http://emergency.cdc.gov/
* Emergency Preparedness for Individuals http://emergency.cdc.gov/preparedness/
* Flu Prevention Information http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/preventing.htm
In addition, I hope the following information about CDC's role in emergency preparedness and response is helpful.
* CDC works with state and local health departments across the United States, as well as international partners around the world, to recognize disease patterns and improve the public health community's ability to respond to health threats.
* CDC and its partners play key roles in homeland security by maintaining the ability to detect and respond to outbreaks, as well as natural and man-made disasters, at home and abroad.
* CDC is a key source of evidence for health action monitoring health, informing clinical and policy decision-making, and providing individuals the information they need to take responsibility for their own health.
* CDC supports state and local public health partners with training and guidance to ensure nationwide lab capacity for detecting and responding to health threats, as well as the capacity to address key risk factors leading to premature death, injury, and disease.
* CDC recognizes that state and local public health departments are the first responders when disease threats occur, and it is their initial investigations that help CDC quickly assist them.
With a sense of urgency do we take this opportunity to educate others about how CDC and the public health community work to keep America safe and how they can join in by being prepared themselves. To learn more about Contagion and how CDC protects America 24/7, visit the following sites:
* Contagion Official Website http://contagionmovie.warnerbros.com/index.html - Directed by Steven Soderbergh, the movie stars Kate Winslet, Matt Damon, Jude Law, Marion Cotillard, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Lawrence Fishburne
* Contagion and CDC http://www.cdcfoundation.org/content/how-cdc-saves-lives-controlling-real-global-disease-outbreaks - A website created by the CDC Foundation to help separate fact from fiction and to highlight CDC's role in preparedness and response
* CDC 24/7 http://www.cdc.gov/24-7/ - A CDC website that includes information you may find useful on how public health protects Americans from outbreaks
Thank you for your help in spreading the word about the critically important role emergency preparedness plays in protecting the health of people in this country and around the world.

Deputy Director, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Director, Office for State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support

New high school graduates can find the support they need to easily transition to college. Military students can quickly discover why Broadview is designated a Military Friendly® School. Online learners can find the flexibility they need to earn their degree. Here are just a few of our many student success stories:
Megan, a massage therapy student at Broadview's Boise campus, has many childhood memories of visiting and spending time with the residents at Plantation Place Assisted Living. "My mom used to work there," she said. "That place has a lot of memories. I even read off bingo numbers!" Megan's experience at Plantation Place came to mind when her pregnancy and special populations class was looking for a field trip to apply what she and her classmates (Teresa Tulloch and Mya Hodges) were learning in the classroom. "I suggested it, called, and set it up," Megan said. Kerrie Jannelle, a massage therapy instructor and program chair, explained how the visit to Plantation Place Assisted Living enhanced what she was teaching in class. "The field trip fitted with the section on working with geriatric clients and caregivers," she said. Megan, Mya, and Teresa spent two days with Plantation Place Assisted Living's residents and staff, giving massages on couches and chairs. "We had to adjust our techniques, such as the amount pressure we applied," Teresa said. "We had to be careful of medical issues, like if they were on blood thinners or had kidney function issues." The students were a hit with residents and staff. "They heard we were there and wanted to get involved," said Teresa. "A lot of people were over 90, and I was surprised how mobile they were." "I was, too," added Mya. "It also was cool to hear their stories." For Megan, the visit gave her a chance to return to a place that had many childhood memories and the opportunity to make new ones as she gave massages to Plantation Place's residents and staff. "I know they enjoyed it," she said. The experience also made Megan think about how she may serve similar populations in the future. "Once I'm done with school, I want to go to places like that and do geriatric massages."

Which Geography Topic Would You Like To Learn About?
Why Does the Atmosphere Exert Pressure?
Everything around you is made up of tiny particles called molecules. This includes even your own body. In a solid object such as a rock, these molecules are bound to each other tightly, not moving very much. This allows a solid to keep its shape. A liquid, such as water, is also made up of molecules, but these molecules are much less forcefully bound to one another. They still remain together, but are free to move around somewhat. The molecules making up a gas, such as the gases in our atmosphere, are not bound to each other at all. They are free to move about, bumping into each other as well as into liquids and solids.
As the molecules of the atmosphere move around, bumping into objects such as your body, they create a pressure. This pressure is omnidirectional, meaning that it is not only exerted from above, but also from beneath, from the sides, and from every direction at once.
At sea level, the amount of pressure exerted by our atmosphere is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. This is around one kilogram per square centimeter. This means that at sea level an object will have 14.7 pounds of pressure pushing against every square inch of the object.
Yet, as we move around in the atmosphere, we are unaware of this pressure. We do not feel it because our bodies are made up of gases that are at the same pressure. In other words, the gases within our bodies actually push back outward at the same pressure.

Shtogg performs introverted psyche songs that are both punkish and theatrical. His songs are probably more suited for weird cult films than for radio due to his melancholic off-centered grueling quirkyness. He is currently working on new song material for 2007. Artist location: Ann Arbor MI,USA. Song highlights for the Deplete album are 'Both Looking Through', 'Place Called This', 'Instinct' and 'Defuse'.

IGN - Ryan and Destin talk about Microsoft's press event at Gamescom and discuss their impressions about games like Killer Instinct, Fable and Kinect Sports.
Ryse looks like a quality game just no appealing to me the gameplay looks kinda blase to me but this is before I actually play it. I'm sure it's a cool game but nothing I haven't seen before with next gen visuals. glad the kinect finally got good coverage. It's gotten too much flak considering its a camera and a motion control peripheral As mostly a PS gamer I think it's of great tech and practical just not a selling point. Over all everything looks cool def wanna get my hands on some of the stuff this con didn't help waver me to get an X1 or steer me away though. All you Xgamers out there have faith in your platform of choice. I been with PS through thick and thin and still had a good time X1's strong points are still yet to come after a lil bit more damage control and the launch.
The competition is stiff MS DONT SLIP UP SONY IS WAITING.
You have to admit, Microsoft has the games to back the system up out of the gate.
Question is, will they pull a 360 and slow support down the road? I really hope not. I always remember what the original Xbox was and hope that they go back to their roots and remember they started purely for gaming, and they were good at it.
Don't get me wrong, I am already aware they are pushing things other than games. I am just hoping to see a major emphasis placed on games as well.
A+++ for me. Now with 22 games on release day, Lots of choices for gamers comes November. IMO, up there with Dramcast as the best launch lineup in history. I just raised my 5 Day one purchase to 9 now. Fable Legends and The Fifa announcement were great surprises..And I especially like how Kinect Sports Rival turns out. Return of waverace!!! That water physic is killer! The scanning to create your own avatar and the motion capture of Project Spark provide a look of one of the benefit of Kinect included in every Sku. I think it was a good presentation.
Battlefield 4 (DICE, Electronic Arts)
Crimson Dragon (Grounding/Land Ho!, Microsoft Studios)
Dead Rising 3 (Capcom Vancouver, Microsoft)
Forza Motorsport 5 (Turn 10 Studios, Microsoft Studios)
Killer Instinct (Double Helix, Microsoft Studios)
NBA 2K14 (Visual Concepts, 2K Sports)
Ryse: Son of Rome (Crytek, Microsoft Studios)
Watch Dogs (Ubisoft Montreal, Ubisoft)
Zoo Tycoon (Frontier Developments Ltd., Microsoft Studios)
In my opinion the only game that interests me in the least from this showing is Dead Rising 3.

With this application, you can: - pinpoint where foreign companies chose to invest in France in 2012 and filter by source country, business sector and host region. - consult in real time recent news about France's attractiveness as an investment location - make contact with an investment advisor about your investment project. Notes: The database used by this application is the basis of the Business France's Report on job-creating foreign investment in France. It lists confirmed projects and details the number of jobs that each project generates. The Report, which is published annually, provides detailed statistical analysis by business sector, investment type, business activity, source country and host region. Four types of investment are recorded and mapped in this application: • Creations, which generate jobs at a new site. • Expansions, which increase the presence of a company in France. • Takeovers, when an ailing business is taken over by a foreign investor, enabling jobs to be maintained. • Expansions through takeovers, when a French company with no financial difficulties is taken over by a foreign investor. You can access the information via three filters: the source country of the investment, the business sector and the host region. Search results will correspond to the filters you choose. A multi-criteria search can be made by combining the following two fields: business sector and host region. The information in the database used by this application is the exclusive work of the Business France and its partners, France's regional development agencies.

An asteroid, just discovered, will speed precariously close to Earth at 15-thousand miles per hour during Monday, June 27, at a distance of only 7,500 miles.
The time of close encounter will be 1 p.m. EDT (17:00 UT). The actual event will be observable only from South Africa and parts of Antarctica, but the approach will be visible across Australia, New Zealand, southern and eastern Asia, and the western Pacific.
The asteroid, named '2011 MD' may be 'only' 20 meters in diameter (about 65 feet), certainly not a major threat to the planet. However it is curious to plug-in the hypothetical calculations to discover what effect a direct hit would have on us here on Earth.
Calculations based on program developed at Purdue University / Imperial College – London
Water Impact Scenario, Asteroid 2011 MD
Hypothetical Assumptions
Asteroid density (iron – a worst case scenario)
Asteroid angle of impact (90 degrees – a worst case scenario)
Impact 10 miles offshore, water depth 500 feet deep
Velocity (6.7 km/s)
Diameter (approximately as large as 20 meters)
The impact energy is equal to 160-Thousand Tons of TNT.
The crater opened in the water has a diameter of 2,650 feet, about half a mile.
The resulting seafloor crater has a diameter of 1,170 feet extending 248 feet into the seafloor.
The seismic effect will arrive onshore 3.2 seconds after impact, equivalent to a magnitude 3.3 on the Richter scale.
The air blast will arrive 48 seconds after impact with a wind velocity of 11 miles per hour with a sound intensity of 67 dB (Loud as heavy traffic).
A tsunami wave will be generated, arriving onshore 7.3 minutes after impact at a height of approximately 9.3 feet.
In Summary
While it is a simple mental 'brush-off' to ignore the fact that an apparently small asteroid such as this might as well be ignored, as you can see, IF this particular little asteroid were to impact the earth in the scenario described above, you would be in a world of hurt when the tsunami hit.
So far during 2011, as of June, more than 250 new asteroids have been discovered! This is extraordinary. It makes you wonder how many more are lurking, and how many of them may be on a collision course…
Still want that seaside property?
Awesome video of Asteroid 2011 MD:

North Dakota Jokes – Win Griz Tickets [VIDEO]
Why are button fly jeans so popular in North Dakota? What's the definition of safe sex in North Dakota? Guess you'll just have to watch KC's video to find out.
Why are button fly jeans so popular in North Dakota? What's the definition of safe sex in North Dakota? Guess you'll just have to watch KC's video to find out.
The 2015 'Team Up Montana Pink Game' Griz is this Saturday (October 10) with kick off at 2 p.m. against Weber State.
This week, we continue our tradition of poking fun at the opposing team while giving away Griz football tickets. NSFW, sorry, our video editing dude missed a couple of F bombs in this one.
The Griz are getting geared up to take on the NAU Lumberjacks this weekend for Homecoming. NAU is always one of those teams that we can't quite be sure how they are going to play...
When you hit the Papa Roach merch booth at the Adams Center show on Friday (9/11) night, you might have noticed the following sign:
"We are proud to present you with the first official TEAM ROACH football jersey. This jersey was meticulously designed and created to the dimensions of a pro-football jersey, so that you can rock the Roach with style and hometown pride. The No. 93 on the front and back symbolizes the year Papa Roach was formed, and the side panels are downright infested with the infamous roach logo. Made out of 100% Polyester."
The Griz football season has just begun and already shenanigans are going down at tailgate parties.
It is often referred to as the "social event of the year", and I had an incredible time last year!
Last Thursday night a linebacker for the Montana State Bobcats straight up WRECKED the running back from Fort Lewis. Some are even calling it the biggest hit (so far) for the 2015 college football season.
Even the most passionate Montana Grizzlies fan can agree...this was jaw-dropping.

You've seen the highlights of the big game... but never like this! Go down on the field with the Griz and see the amazing game from the team's point of view!#FCSKickoff #GoGriz #PrideofMT
Posted by Montana Grizzlies on Tuesday, September 1, 2015
If you attended the Griz/NDSU game, you saw first hand the awesome camaraderie and mutual love for the game among all of the fans. In the days after the Griz win, people from both Montana and North Dakota were raving about what a positive experience it was for all. Well, except that one dummy who grabbed a Bison player by his face mask.
ESPN has a final tally of the number of people who watched the University of Montana Griz upset the No. 1 ranked North Dakota State Bison last Saturday and, according to ESPN, nearly a million people were watching...
Last week's North Dakota jokes video clearly brought luck to the Grizzlies, so we thought we'd try it again this week with a classic Cali joke.
ABC FOX Montana Local News, Weather, Sports KTMF | KWYB
ABC Fox Montana spoke with Griz Coach Bob Stitt and quarterback Brady Gustafson about their legendary win this past Saturday against NDSU as they gear up for this weekend's night game.

Also, are there any differences between editing for online publication, blogs, and physical publication.
sort by best latest
I would say with anything you write, you should give it some time before editing your work, if at all possible. I usually write a hub, edit it once immediately, and then come back to it a day or two later. You notice a lot more when you come back a day or so later. In your mind, you already know what was meant, so you read that instead of what is in front of you at first.
It does help to read it out loud if you can. Even if you don't read it out loud, make sure to read it as if you have never seen it before. It helps you determine if it reads well and makes sense. It never hurts to add details or change sentences for clarity.

I read my work over upon finishing it and correct any glaring mistakes. I come back the next day and read it aloud, trying to listen as if i've never heard it before. If possible i like to read it again the third day.
Careful re-reads are probably your best tool. You have to be willing to read your own work over and over again if you hope to iron out all the problems. Read it after you wrote it. Read it after setting it aside. Read it after editing it. I re-read everything, including emails, facebook posts, and even this comment. It won't always catch every error, but you'd be surprised how much you can fix.

Print and edit a hard copy. If on screen, enlarge the print as much as possible and edit in a sans font as this makes errors easier to spot than when using a serif font.
Never ever rely on the automatic spellchecker to check spelling and grandma. Oh yes, that happened. A misspelled 'grammar' was auto changed to 'grandma' so no red underline and the author didn't check before submitting.
The purpose of editing is to get it right. It doesn't matter whether it is a novel or a blog or a silly little tweet.

To me, there are a couple of levels of editing. The simplest is to check for spelling errors and mistakes in grammar. The other, more complex area to review and correct when necessary is what I call clarity and coherence, a clear and logical flow.
First finish what you're writing. don't write and edit at the same time. If you change your mind about something, by all means do it, if you think it will set the pace. If your writing is retrospective then keep to the past tense in your prose. If your perspective changes, make a clear break or make your reader aware that your terms of reference have temporarily changed, and then go back to your chosen retrospective.
My RAVENFEAST books are written as related to my central character in the present tense, but in places I take them back in time. Each time I 'change gear', I break the narrative and leave a visible space before taking them on. I also try to keep the prose going forward, active verbs not passive ones do that more effectively. 'I am going' is passive, 'I go' is active.
Taken in context, I edit to keep the motion in motion. If my character is in a reflective mood, I will edit his thoughts to read active-passive. Keep the '-ing' endings to a minimum, otherwise you'll get your readers thinking I am not following this very easily. it's like mentally trudging through soft sand or mud. Let them stride through the narrative at a steady pace and they'll arrive refreshed at the end.
Break up the narrative into bite-sized paragraphs. Don't 'rabbit' on and on. Life gets tedious enough without wading through pages of narrative without a rest. It's like a long walk, let your readers stop and admire the view, then tag them along again to the next view.
They'll thank you by buying your books again.

After reading and reviewing the book 'Grammer Girl' I remember a comment which said write first, that's your rough draft; and edit second with punctuation, the same way if one was freestyle writing.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
It is hard to edit your own work. That being said, the answer will depend on how large the work is.
An example: A short story under 6,000 words can be put aside for a few days and easily scanned for blatant errors.
Novellas, or works exceeding 30,000 words, should be put aside for a full month before any editing is attempted.
The real answer you are looking for is: You cannot truly edit your own work.
To polish your work it goes through many rewrites and critiques. This will make the story very familiar to you. When this happens, your brain will disregard errors, and you will read your work skipping over the errors.
What to do:
Complete your rewrites until you have polished your story/novella/novel. Usually 6 or more rewrites will be needed. Once that is complete, search out a good editor. Don't go cheap on this step. Editing is important, and there are several different types of editing you can get. They range from simple editing (spelling and grammar checking), to line editing (following the story line for consistency).
Poor editing sticks out and makes a person put your hard work down. If you are serious about writing, follow the steps and have a polished work available for your audience.

Fantastic and partly furnished 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment in Coogee. The apartment has a kitchen with modern appliances, a sunroom, dining area, washing machine and generous living space. There is also a seaview from the living room.
The apartment has a lock up garage. This is used by the incumbent housemate's car, but there is plenty of storage space, a dart board and a table tennis table.
It is 500m from Coogee beach and the Coogee Pavillion. A short walk to the restaurants and cafe's of Coogee. There is a bus stop outside the flat for easy access to the city.
The Housemates:
1. Graham
32 years old. Originally from England and has lived in Sydney for just over three years (always in this same apartment). Enjoys playing and watching sport. Regularly plays cricket and golf. Also enjoys live music and a night out. Works in insurance and tends to work long hours during the week, occasssionally working from home.
2. Adam
32 years old. Originally from Perth,WA and has been in Sydney for a couple of years (one year in the apartment). Enjoys watching basketball and AFL. Works in leasing of construction equipment but also studying part time for a degree in Journalism and PR. When not working or studying, Adam also writes for Sydney Social 101 so gets to plenty of PR events/free dinners. Also enjoys a night.
We both have our own group of friends but do socialise together from time to time, whether that be a nightout, dinner or watching sport/films.
Summary Current Bills - Split equally between the housemates.
Foxtel with sports package $85 a month
Internet $60 per month
Electricity paid quarterly between housemates. Approx. $50 per month.
Cleaner – for communal areas - $65 fortnightly
* We are looking to share with one person; not a couple and long term stay is preferred rather than somebody on a working holiday/backpacker.
++ Update 18 October 2016 ++ We have had a lot of interest in the room. The current housemate will likely move out in the next couple of weeks so the property would be suitable for someone looking to move around that time.
I am exceptionally busy at work so I may not be able to reply to your messages immediately, however I will respond as soon as I can. Please send a message via this website if interested and provide some information about yourself.
Ideally I will try to start showing people around the apartment in the evening on Friday 21 October 2016 and/or Sunday 23 October.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

It's pretty obvious that solid planning and attention to detail are essential to a successful event. In fact your event is sure to fail without accurate and timely administration, and fastidious form filling.
It's not all bad news - sometimes event disasters can be turned around (just take a look at this piece on Eventbrite). But let's hope you're never in that position.
As experienced event organisers we'll assume that you already have this in hand and are looking for that little bit extra. A successful event isn't just one that goes off without a hitch – you should aspire to achieve more – much more - than that.
We've worked on literally thousands of events across a variety of sectors, so here are our three ingredients for event success.
1. Be individual
Rule 1 for event success is about ensuring your event has a personality of its own.
Golf clubs, racecourses, hotels and business centres are typical venues for events, but they're not helping you to stand out from the crowd.
Why not mix things up and use a castle? Brunel's SS Great Britain? Or even Bentley Priory - the headquarters of Fighter Command where the Battle of Britain was planned and won…you get the picture.
A unique venue could help you generate interest and can give your event the edge. At the very least, it will get people talking about you – there's nothing better than having other people create the buzz about your event for you!
Admittedly, if you're planning a large event or conference, it's likely your choice will be limited, but it's not just about the location. Why not introduce some 'brand personality' elsewhere by shaking up the seating arrangements, trying something different with the catering or changing up the agenda? Whatever you do, do it with style.
2. Generate excitement
Rule 2 is that if someone has made the effort to attend your event, then find some way to get them excited.
The venue, menu, agenda and even the design of the invites will all help your event attendees build a picture of your event. When your visitors arrive, they're entering your world – and it's up to you to keep them engaged and shake up this perception.
Big companies spend huge amounts of money in transforming events from the transactional exchange of information to the inspirational – the exchange of ideas. It's worth looking at how some of the market leaders across the world are managing events to get some ideas of events done really well and seeing how they could be translated and adapted to you and your sector.
This may be something as straight forward as trying out some new technology, lighting, enhanced and captivating visuals or interactive elements to your presentations. Or it could be about breaking free of conventions, by embracing innovative new strategies like 'unconferencing', which dispense with the whole notion of a fixed agenda, allowing delegates to pick and choose how they experience your event.
Some events turn to unique entertainment – although perhaps not always successfully (see the recent Siemens Healthineers launch for example) – but at least they're trying something new.
3. Reward your attendees
Rule 3 is about rewarding your attendees. An event is about creating a connection with an audience. You may wish to generate new customers, reward existing ones or to announce some incredible new innovation or idea.
You don't need to physically give them something (although many choose to do so with packs full of corporate freebies), it's about giving them the sense that, by attending your event, they are better off.
It might be about investing in a headline speaker, or unveiling some new development or insight. It could be about offering them the opportunity to network and interact, or the chance to break free of their traditional job roles.
Your relationship with your attendees doesn't end when the event does. You can reward visitors with exclusive content, insights or offers shared through email. You can even offer them exclusive access to future events.
Creating an event that captivates your audience is about more than the fundamentals; it's about offering them that little bit extra that helps you stand out. We're experts in helping you achieve your vision for your event. But don't worry, we can do the fundamentals too.
I have worked with Ben and his team for many years....their technical expertise and experience of every aspect of an event is second to none and I couldn't imagine running my major events without them...
Tracy Marsh, Marsh Marketing
We worked with the guys recently in London and put simply they were brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble even adapting to our changing schedule during the event. We will see you again next year....
Martin, Production Management
Matt ,Thank you for Leading and operating the Video team .The show was a great success due to your technical expertise and leadership it was a pleasure to work with you. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again next time I am in the UK....
Mike, One Smoothe Stone
Just wanted to drop you a line to express my gratitude...as always a professional job.
David Phillips, Wales Quality Awards
Matt...just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for everything you and the team did to make the 2014 Wales Nurse of the year Awards the undoubted success they were. The aim was to raise the quality of the production of the event and you more than fulfilled that objective.

The parents of 18-month-old baby Bella who were once mourning during what they thought were going to be their last minutes with their child, are now rejoicing and calling the tot a "miracle baby." They are now sharing their story with the world.
The UK Express reported that earlier this year, baby Bella's mother Francesca, 41, and father Lee, 44, were told by doctors to say their final goodbyes to their baby girl as they prepared to turn off the machines keeping the child alive.
The family tells how they all gathered around the child's bed to take last photos and say their goodbyes. The distraught parents even took hand and foot prints to remember their stricken child.
Advertisement - story continues below
Doctors said that the baby, suffering from mitochondrial disease, would not likely survive, and the life-giving machines were turned off.
Bella's mother described what they thought were to be their last moments:
We had the whole family at our sides.
On July 21 we were told to say our goodbyes and the whole family came in one by one to say their goodbyes.
I just kept sitting there thinking 'why us?'
It was heart wrenching because you see family members [cry] that you've never seen cry before.
will never, ever forget that moment when I had to say goodbye to my daughter.
Then the doctors flipped that switch and the family prepared to watch as the child breathed her last.

But then the unexpected happened.
The baby's father explained what came next:
I was holding her hand knowing there was going to be a little last breath.
I could feel her hand dropping and it went down but then she started gripping my finger.
She started moving on her own and then her machine started going off. The doctors then changed everything to try to keep her alive.
Even though the doctors thought the child was doomed, and despite that the family signed papers agreeing that no extraordinary measures should be taken, doctors decided that the signs of life the child was showing were too strong to ignore.
Advertisement - story continues below
Soon the doctors were all at work trying to help revive the baby as she struggled to live. Miraculously, she pulled through.
It wasn't a sudden return to vitality, of course. Little Bella spent three weeks in intensive care and then another six weeks at home being weened off the harshest drugs. But now the family is celebrating her second birthday and Bella is getting stronger and returning to normal slowly every day.
Bella's mom told the media, "She's now learning to talk and her hair is growing back and she's even walking. She's about eight months behind where she should be but doctors are confident she will pick up quite quickly."
"We are so excited to be together this Christmas and to sit and watch them open their presents."

text: Stella McCartney to Expand Denim The designer is hoping to make a bigger business out of jeans for spring 2014. By Jessica Iredale on June 11, 2013 Stella McCartney has always been a jeans girl, often wearing denim for personal appearances and regularly featuring it in her runway collections. Now the designer is hoping to make a bigger business out of jeans with the expansion of her denim range to 10 styles available in 20 washes for spring 2014. "I believe it's an everyday part of everybody's life," said McCartney. "Jeans are a timeless classic with a million opportunities to inject freshness and attitude. There are a lot of eco possibilities as well with denim, which I find exciting." The collection will include shorts and jeans in skinny, wide-leg and boyfriend styles as well as low-, mid- and high-rise fits. Classic indigo washes will come in overdyed, faded and dégradé, and there will be a significant novelty component, including a range of pink washes and heart and leopard prints. The 100 percent Italian-made collection will ship in November and retail from $350 to $595.

Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon
MA BM BCh FRCS(Plast)
Some of the principal treatments carried out by Mr James Haeney at Spire include:
I am a highly trained and well-respected Plastic Surgeon and moved to the East Yorkshire area in 2010. I qualified from Cambridge and Oxford Universities before commencing surgical training in a number of large UK teaching hospitals. My advanced training in Plastic Surgery was undertaken in Yorkshire and the Midlands before gaining my FRCS(Plast) in 2008. I then undertook internationally renowned fellowships in Hand Surgery at the Pulvertaft unit in derby and in Leeds and a fellowship in reconstructive Cosmetic Surgery in Nottingham and Leicester. I believe that surgery can make a huge difference to quality of life but feel strongly that it is a decision that should not be taken lightly. It is important that anyone considering surgery has a full understanding of what can be achieved and the potential risks involved. At Spire Hull and East Riding Hospital these principles promote safe practice and maximise good results.

Some lucky Muskingum County children got to go shopping tonight with a special partner.
About 50 children shopped with officers from the Muskingum County Sheriff's Department and Zanesville Police Department.
The program Shop With a Cop pairs children with officers to buy items such as clothes and toys for Christmas.
"The officers love doing it," said President of the Associates Lodge FOP Jim Hicks. "They've been talking about it for several
Weeks. The children, when we talk to them, they get excited about it."
But, because of the economy, Shop With a Cop hasn't been able to serve as many children this year as in years past.
"It's down a little from last year. We've been doing 75 to 80. Fund raising was down a little this year because of fund raising. We were going to do 40, but things picked up in the last few weeks and added another 10 children. We're happy with the turnout."
Shop With a Cop is a national program, serving most states.
This year, each child was able to receive up to $100 worth of goodies from the program.
