A lot of actors ask me this when they are setting up a headshot session with me, so I decided it would be a good idea to write an article about it.
The question actually starts with you as the actor. What you have to ask yourself is what types of characters do you play best? What are the roles and looks you are going for?
In an earlier article, I mentioned that looks doesn't mean just what clothing you want to wear. It actually means what character are you playing in your headshot? You cannot use one headshot to submit for every single role. Ideally you would have a number of headshots to submit to each different project.
Casting directors don't use an imagination. Therefore they are only going to select you if you look just like the character they had in mind. So the clothing that you wear coupled with the expression on your face is going to be what will sell you to them.
When you decide on clothing, pick stuff that will bring out the different characters you are good at playing, and the characters you want to audition for.
For general guidelines, be sure to wear darker colors if you are dark skinned, and medium colors if you are light skinned. Shy away from really bright colors, like yellow, red, and white. Wear layers. This means wear an open shirt with another underneath because it adds interest and depth to the image. You can wear a jacket if you want too.
Don't wear plaid or crazy patterns. Try to keep it simple, mostly one color. And wear a color you look good in. I can't tell you what color you look good in, so ask your friends.
Lastly, don't try anything new. Try to keep it simple, just be yourself when dressing. Don't go crazy or it will look weird.
Ladies: get a makeup artist if possible. Just do yourself up a tiny bit more than normal. You want to look a little extra good for the shots to stand up among the rest of the competition.
Good luck, and please leave a comment if you found this post helpful!

As the Pittsburgh Penguins move into a new era of success after years of struggling, the focus on prospects has slightly waned, with two being traded by new GM Ray Shero at the trade deadline for immediate help on the ice. Noah Welch and Daniel Carcillo have found new homes in Florida and Phoenix respectively. Many others have found their way onto the NHL roster.
Key graduations since the last edition of the Top 20 include Evgeni Malkin, Jordan Staal, Colby Armstrong, Maxime Talbot and Erik Christensen. Also Matt Moulson was allowed to leave for Los Angeles without a contract offer. Even with the number moving up, there is still a good collection of prospects waiting for their chance.
1. Kristopher Letang, D
3rd Round, 62nd Overall 2005, 5'11, 190 lbs, 19
A cameo appearance in the NHL and his captaining of Team Canada to the WJC this year has catapulted Letang into serious consideration for a permanent NHL role in the next two seasons.
Known mainly from his offense from the blue line, Letang has also shown he is proficient in all areas and has a leadership quality that has been underrated. The 19-year-old surprised many when he made the NHL team out of camp, knocking out the more experienced Noah Welch. Letang spent seven games in the big show and scored two goals before getting sent back to his junior team, Val d'Or.
He has lit the lamp with regularity since returning to the QMJHL, scoring at 1.5 points per game, with 51 points (14 goals, 37 assists) in just 35 games.
2. Alex Goligoski, D
3rd Round, 61st Overall 2004, 6'0, 187 lbs, 21
Golden Gophers defenseman Alex Goligoski has set the ice alight this season, with nine goals and 25 assists from 37 games to be just three points off the team lead and making him the top-scoring blue liner in the WCHA. The gifted puckmover is showing that he can be a leader, taking the responsibility as a go-to guy, even if he is still only a sophomore.
Always on the small side, Goligoski is starting to fill out and is now listed at 6'0, 187 pounds. He still maintains his strengths though, with quickness and intelligent puck movement his best attributes. For a while he led the entire WCHA in scoring, and was a strong candidate for the Hobey Baker award, but there are other candidates now more likely as the Minnesota native has slowed down in the back half of the season.
The Penguins should give Goligoski the opportunity to finish his college career with plenty of offensive blue liners to fill that role until he is ready.
3. Jonathan Filewich, RW
3rd Round, 70th Overall 2003, 6'2, 200 lbs, 22
Second-year pro Jonathan Filewich has taken some extra responsibility this season, and is showing he can be an offensive threat at this level. After leading the Baby Pens as a rookie with 22 goals, Filewich has continued where he left off, surpassing that goal total in 20 fewer games and once again leading the team.
Filewich is strong on the puck, has a hard shot and deceptive quickness. A first-time AHL All-Star in 2007, he won the fastest skater competition with a time of 14.553.
The Penguins would love Filewich to be able to make the jump to the NHL next season and become the scoring winger they covet. He has 23 goals and 22 assists from 59 games and is second on the team with +13.
4. Ryan Stone, C
2nd Round, 32nd Overall 2003, 6'1, 205 lbs, 21
Injury concerns have caused a few problems for Ryan Stone this season, but he remains one of the most promising prospects in the Penguins system.
Stone's game is based on his playmaking skills, and eventually became the Baby Pens No. 1 center as a rookie when the likes of Erik Christensen and Colby Armstrong became NHL'ers. He scored 36 points and had 109 PIM. It is this combination of skill and his willingness to play in the corners that gives him an NHL shot as early as next season.
One problem for Stone is the form of the players above him in similar roles, with Talbot and Armstrong playing some excellent hockey in Pittsburgh so Stone's chances will be limited going forward.
Stone has three goals and 14 assists from 27 games this season.
5. Carl Sneep, D
2nd Round 32nd Overall 2006, 6'4, 210 lbs, 19
Towering second-round pick Carl Sneep is steadily improving as he gets towards the end of his freshman season with Boston College.
At 6'4 and 210 pounds, the Penguins are hoping he can become a physically imposing type that will play a mainly defensive role with but can also jump into the offense when possible. He does have some offensive instincts, but his focus is on working hard in his own end.
His maturity has meant he is getting quality minutes with the Eagles, and should be a candidate for Team USA in the WJC next season.
Sneep has one goal and eight assists in 33 games this season and his goal came short-handed.
6. Tyler Kennedy, C
4th Round, 99th Overall 2004, 5'10, 183 lbs, 20
A tireless worker with high-level playmaking skills, the diminutive Kennedy is really opening some eyes with an excellent rookie campaign in Wilkes-Barre.
Kennedy's smooth transition to the pro game has as much to do with his hockey intelligence as it does with his skills. He sees the game well and his versatility has allowed him to change positions from center to wing in order to get more quality minutes. He is also a top-notch faceoff man, a skill more valuable than many acknowledge.
He uses his above average speed to pressure on the forecheck and create scoring chances, and it is clear that he never gives up on the play.
Kennedy's 37 points (12 goals, 25 assists) from 40 games put him fourth in team scoring, but his point-per-game average of 0.93 is only just off the team lead and is ahead of Filewich and more touted Edmonton prospect Rob Schremp. Kennedy also leads the team with a +15 rating.
7. Bobby Goepfert, G
6th Round, 171st Overall 2002, 5'10, 170 lbs, 23
St. Cloud State goaltender Bobby Goepfert has continued the good form he showed last season as he takes the Huskies into contention in March.
The once-troubled backstop has been stellar in two seasons with St. Cloud, and now shapes up as a possible future backup to Marc-Andre Fleury. He has shown increased maturity and leadership and is a strong candidate to repeat as team MVP.
Goepfert's Huskies have been consistently ranked in the top five NCAA teams, and a recent two-game sweep of Minnesota have made sure that the Huskies will be respected as contenders for a Frozen Four berth and a possible national title. St. Cloud State enters March with the nation's No. 2 ranking, and the Gophers are sure to be nervously looking over their shoulders at Goepfert and the Huskies.
The Penguins sixth-round selection in 2002 boasts a 15-6-7 record, is sixth in the nation for GAA with 2.13 and fourth in save percentage with .930.
8. David Brown, G
8th Round, 228th Overall 2004, 6'0, 185 pounds, 22
Senior goaltender David Brown has shaken off his mediocre form as a sophomore and junior to become the country's most dominant NCAA backstopper in 2006-07. For the first time in school history, Notre Dame is the CCHA regular season champion and is ranked as one of the top teams in the country.
Brown has been the outstanding player on the Fighting Irish, and looks like the favorite for the Hobey Baker Award at the end of the season.
Brown's 25 wins (24-5-3) are comfortably first in the nation to go along with his top-ranked GAA of 1.68. Brown's save percentage is sixth at .927.
These stunning numbers puts his future with the Penguins in a much brighter light, and should see him battling with Goepfert for the starter's job with the Baby Penguins in the fall.
9. Brian Strait, D
3rd Round, 65th Overall 2006, 6'0, 200 lbs, 19
Boston University freshman defenseman Brian Strait is not the type of player who gets noticed for making the fancy plays. Strait keeps things simple and does the things in his own end that make the difference between winning and losing.
Strait is only 6'0 but is quite solid at 200 pounds and can be physical when grinding the puck out of the corners.
Strait has two goals and three assists in 31 games this season.
10. Ryan Lannon, D
8th Round, 239th Overall 2002, 6'2, 220 lbs, 24
Steady defenseman Ryan Lannon has continued his solid play from his rookie year, and is developing into a player who could be of NHL standard in the coming seasons.
Lannon plays a stay-at-home type of game, and is serving his apprenticeship in the AHL until the organization deems him ready for a shot at the big time. When the Penguins needed that type of player earlier in the season, they decided to call up Alain Nasreddine instead – but Lannon should get his shot as early as next season.
He is not a flashy player by any means, and looks to have his ceiling as a third pair defenseman. Lannon has been very solid with Wilkes-Barre as one of the main cogs on the blue line, and the extra minutes and responsibility have sped up his development. At 24 years of age and with a full college career behind him, he is experienced enough to make the jump.
Lannon hasn't lit the lamp yet this season, but has 17 assists to his name from 52 games.
11. Michael Gergen, LW
2nd Round, 61st Overall 2005, 5'10, 185 lbs, 20
Rugged and speedy winger Michael Gergen has dipped somewhat this season, after leading the UMD Bulldogs in goals as a freshman in 2005-06.
Gergen has just the five goals to his name at this point of the season, four of which have come on the power play. The Minnesota native has shown a passion for scoring goals, and his lack of scoring this season seems to be affecting his confidence.
UMD have been disappointing this season for a team stocked with NHL draft picks, but they are a young team and Gergen can be a key player for them if he can rebuild his confidence next season. Gergen is sixth in team scoring with five goals and 11 assists in 36 games.
12. Johannes Salmonsson, LW/C
2nd Round, 31st Overall 2004, 6'2, 183 lbs, 21
With his disappointing season in the WHL behind him, Swedish forward Johannes Salmonsson has been improving while playing in for Brynas in the Swedish Elite League.
With still another season remaining before the Penguins reach the deadline to sign the two-way forward, Salmonsson could still develop into a valuable winger for the Penguins. His move back to Sweden could well be the best thing for him, and allow him to develop in a league of men with familiar surroundings.
Taken with the first pick of the second round in 2004, there were high hopes for the hard-skating Swede, and he has shown good offensive instincts in junior competition. As he continues to bulk up, he will have more of an effect in the SEL and allow him to play the more physical game in North America should he come back at the end of next season.
Salmonsson has eight goals and three assists in 45 games this season with Brynas.
13. Nick Johnson, RW
3rd Round, 67th Overall 2004, 6'2, 197 lbs, 21
Johnson continues to improve as he approaches the end of his junior year with Dartmouth. He is now a go-to guy with the Big Green, leading the team in power-play goals and sitting second in team scoring.
Johnson has excellent all-around skills, and is putting himself into a strong position for a contract after his final year of college next season. He started slowly this season, but has now picked up the pace and he is targeting his best offensive season that he enjoyed as a freshman two seasons ago when he scored 35 points.
Johnson currently has 26 points (13 goals, 13 assists) in 29 games with two game winners.
14. Jean-Philippe Paquet, D
6th Round, 194th Overall 2005, 6'2, 202 lbs, 20
Baie-Comeau defenseman J.P Paquet is flying under the radar at the moment, but is quietly compiling his best-ever junior season. Traded to his new team from Shawinigan earlier in the season, Paquet has been even more effective with his new club and is one of the leading scorers on his team.
While at Shawinigan he had the added responsibility of the captaincy, and Paquet took that in his stride and has been a reliable defenseman in all situations. Paquet is in the mold of some of the other offensive-minded defensemen in the Penguins system, so he faces a tough road to the top with other good players ahead of him. Paquet could be an effective player with added development, and he is already bulking up to a good size and is currently listed at 6'2, 202 pounds.
Paquet had 30 points (6 goals, 24 assists) in 37 games with Shawinigan and has 20 points (six goals, 14 assists) in 26 games with Baie-Comeau.
15. Tommi Leinonen, D
4th Round, 125th Overall 2005, 6'2, 185 lbs, 19
It has not been an easy season for defenseman Tommi Leinonen, with a disappointing result for Team Finland at the WJC followed by a tough season in the country's top league.
As a young defenseman, it is difficult to get any quality minutes in a league of men, and Leinonen is finding it difficult to get decent ice time. Aside from that, Leinonen is a promising prospect who has two-way skills and can play a physical game. He can make an excellent outlet pass, but failed to contribute enough during the WJC, affecting the team's offensive capability. His physicality improved though, something that was lacking in the previous tournament.
Leinonen has played 13 games with the senior Karpat team in the Finnish Elite League, without a point.
16. Patrick Ehelechner, G
Acquired in trade with San Jose, 6'2, 184 lbs, 21
Athletic German goaltender Patrick Ehelechner has had a forgettable season with the troubled Duisberg club in the DEL. The team is the worst in the league and Ehelechner had little help in front of him as his GAA blew up and the losses piled up.
Ehelechner failed to impress enough to make the NHL roster out of camp this season, and decided to return to Germany rather than playing for Wilkes-Barre. With Jocelyn Thibault at the end of his contract after this season, Ehelechner may decide to return and have a shot at the backup job, but it is likely that he will have to play some games in the minors – something he appears unwilling to do.
17. Stephen Dixon, C
7th Round, 229th Overall 2003, 5'11, 188 lbs, 21
A versatile and clever forward, Dixon has always been a valuable player on the Wilkes-Barre roster over the last two seasons.
Used on all four lines, the power play and penalty kill, Dixon has been Mr. Fix-it for the Baby Penguins, unfortunately to the detriment of his consistency at times. His scoring pace is better than his rookie campaign, having already surpassed his totals as he is given more valuable ice time, but his defensive work has dropped and Dixon is now a team-worst -11.
It is looking more and more likely that Dixon will not get a chance in the big time, with the NHL Penguins moving into a new era and players like Talbot and Armstrong getting established. Dixon has 11 goals and 20 assists in 59 games this season.
18. Tim Crowder, RW
5th Round, 126th Overall 2005, 6'2, 180 lbs, 20
After a fast start to the season, Crowder has dropped off the pace with just one goal in his last 10 games. An all-around forward, Crowder has been a solid contributor throughout his first two seasons with MSU, but this season has a bit of a mixture, with runs of goals followed by disappointing slumps.
Crowder, now a sophomore, has shown a knack of scoring timely goals, particularly in the playoffs last season, and the Spartans will be hoping for more of the same as they take the No. 13 ranking into this most important month.
Crowder has 11 goals and eight assists from 33 games.
19. Brian Gifford, C
3rd Round, 85th Overall 2004, 6'2, 187 lbs, 21
University of Denver freshman Brian Gifford has been a pleasant surprise at the playing in a defensive forward role on a strong team. Unable to get top line minutes, Gifford has fit in well with a defensive focus, and has three goals and ten assists from 39 games. He also sits fifth on the team with 49 penalty minutes.
A concern would have to be his inability to score at even strength, with all his goals coming on the power play.
20. Joe Vitale, C
7th Round, 195th Overall 2005, 5'11, 205 lbs, 21
This hard-working Northeastern center impresses fans with his excellent work ethic and heart as he helps his young team through what has been a tough year.
Vitale plays an excellent defensive game and is one of the team's best penalty killers. He has two short-handed goals and leads the team with three game winners, showing that he is good in clutch situations and can be relied on when the game is tight. He also has great leadership and could surprise as a future pro in a checking role.
Vitale has also contributed offensively, sitting fourth in team scoring with 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) in 35 games. He has been prone to taking too many penalties, however, and leads the team in minor penalties with 27.

Heartfelt thanks for such a superb product! I have suffered with irritable bowel and diverticulitis for a number of years. My wife also has suffered from serious reflux and heartburn. Now, thanks to a wise friend of ours, Mrs. Jean, here in Taupo, we took her recommendation and purchased a bottle of the Yoghurt Capsule. We felt so much better after sharing just one bottle, that we purchased another, and are sure to remain very happy customers. We heartily recommend the Yoghurt Capsule to all!
Love my Yoghurt Capsules – from Jim & Sheryl
I absolutely recommend. Thought I would let you know. I ran out of your yoghurt capsules 3 weeks ago. So thought I would see how my Irritable Bowel Syndrome was without the Yoghurt Capsules. I soon discovered it came back as bad as ever. So thank you, I absolutely recommend these capsules to anyone.
– from Linda
Great product. Does what it promises.
– from Franklin
Love my Yoghurt Capsules – from Liz Kilbride
Two whom it may concern,
Your capsules have been instrumental in greatly improving my health. I have included my credit card details so please put me on your automatic order system. I would like two pots every two months.
Sincerely Yours,
Kirker Health,
What a marvellous product. They are obviously doing me a lot of good.
Thank you,
Pam (Hastings).
Mr B Kirker,
Please forward me 4 pots. I have just finished the 2 pots I initially ordered and feel magnificent. In fact the best for a long time. Keep up your good work.
Dave, (Gisborne)
Dear Sir,
I have just completed one container of 60 capsules of your Yoghurt capsules and have received fantastic benefits from them. I have enclosed my cheque for 2 more pots.
Thanking you,
Margaret H, (Whangarei)
Dear Sir or Madam,
I have had "Irritable Bowel" Syndrome for a long time so had a "Barium Enema" which proved to be negative. I have had a lot of stress as my Husband died 3 months ago. I have been on the capsules now for a few weeks to find I can now eat cereal again, which I enjoy so much…
Margret (Tauranga)
Kirker Health,
Thought I would let you know. I ran out of your yoghurt capsules 3 weeks ago. So thought I would see how my Irritable Bowel Syndrome was without the Yoghurt Capsules. I soon discovered it came back as bad as ever.
So thank you, I absolutely recommend these capsules to anyone.
Dear Brian,
Since taking your yoghurt capsules, my bowel disease has improved greatly. I highly recommend your product.
Yours faithfully,
Jean, (Taranaki)
Dear Brian,
I started taking Kirker's Yoghurt Capsules only two months ago, but the improvement in my health is already noticeable. I have suffered from Fibromyalgia for a number of years. I have noticed that I can exercise without ending up with painful swollen joints; I am sleeping better which is a big bonus for fibromyalgia sufferers.
My son who has been suffering from clinical depression started on the capsules on the same day. He has been depressed for a number of years, he had withdrawn from life and had developed a social phobia, even within the family. I used to see him sitting staring into space and worry what would happen to him. Within four days of taking the tablets, he started coming back into the room with the family and within two weeks was talking a little. Last week I heard him laugh out loud, a sound that had not been heard in years. I must admit I cried.
So thank you Brian for these marvellous capsules, I have recommended them to family overseas and in New Zealand.
Barbara, (Auckland)

The first Fire Emblem title to be released on home consoles since 2007.
During the Fire Emblem Nintendo Direct today, it was announced that a new Fire Emblem game will be arriving on the upcoming Switch console.
This announcement included very few details - the game will be a main series Fire Emblem, and is set to arrive sometime in 2018. In fact, the game doesn't even have a title yet - the "working title" is simply Fire Emblem for Nintendo Switch. As the subsequent announcement on Twitter points out, this is the first for home consoles since 2007.
A new mainline #FireEmblem game is coming to Nintendo Switch, a first for home consoles since 2007! Look forward to a planned 2018 release. pic.twitter.com/LyXzWEHcOw— Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) January 18, 2017
Also announced during the Nintendo Direct was the fact that Fire Emblem Warriors, first announced at Nintendo's Switch presentation last week, will be making its way to both the Switch and the 3DS this fall, along with Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, a new game inspired by 1992's Fire Emblem, which is coming to the 3DS in May.

The title of this post seems to be a bit of a query in itself. What do I really mean by abstract or concrete neediness? Before I make myself clear on that let's just quickly review what concrete and abstract are.
When doing nouns in schools we learned various types of them, including abstract and concrete. The simplest way to understand them is that concrete means the things that have an existence, which can be touched like a mug, credit card, money, furniture, etc. Whereas abstract is just the opposite. It involves relation with ideas, feeling and thoughts like love, kindness, sympathy, etc.
Now lets move on to your thoughts… What do you really want? You might want to have more money in your wallet and account, or perhaps that exquisite piece of jewellery, or that antique vase that is going to make your room look complete. But what happens when you get it. You have some new and more wants related to all things concrete. You might say that once you've made a purchase that you wanted you feel satisfied or happy, but question yourself for how long does it last. Rarely for a very short period till you get your mind focused on another want. And the chain continues.
But what happens when you are on the lookout for everything abstract, or lets say not all the time but most of the time? when you are in the lookout for happiness you spread happiness, you bring a smile to people's face, lighten up someone's heavy heart and you know what? Once you do this, you feel immense satisfaction that lasts forever and more great news.. It's a great MOTIVATOR for us in times when we are feeling down. And who doesn't want motivation?
This was one thing abstract, there are many more abstracts that we really need in our lives. Take a few seconds to think about all the abstracts that really are lacking in your life and ways you can achieve them plus the reasons why they aren't already in your life. Is it because you are too much focused on acquiring the concretes?
Some abstracts you want to add to your life, that you really need:
- love
- sympathy
- kindness
- satisfaction
- peace
- clarity
And some abstracts that you really want to avoid (by the way they are by-products of wanting concretes):
- jealousy
- anger
- war
- hatred
So what we conclude is that we really don't NEED concretes, that is the new model of the cell phone, that really awesome car, that one more piece of jewellery, but you really need more positive abstracts in your life to enjoy the beauty of life because life is beautiful. 🙂

After a splendid run at Bollywood, Soha Ali Khan is all set for her writing career. Soha Ali Khan's debut book, The Perils of Being Moderately Famous, will be released later this year. Penguin India is publishing the Pataudi princess's debut novel.
On 30 Jan 2017, Soha Ali Khan announced her book on Twitter. She shared that she is excited as well as little nervous about the release of her book.
Excited, and a little bit nervous, to announce my book 'The Perils of Being Moderately Famous' with @PenguinIndia https://t.co/vjAyXSqQuM
— Soha Ali Khan (@sakpataudi) January 30, 2017
With this announcement, Soha Ali Khan has also joined the trend of Bollywood celebrities writing a memoir.
The Perils of Being Moderately Famous by Soha Ali Khan
The Perils of Being Moderately Famous by Soha Ali Khan will feature a collection of humorous and weird stories on her life as a royal princess. Not many people, even her fans, know that her official title is Nawabzadi Soha Ali Khan of Pataudi and Bhopal – that's a real princess for you. The cover and the release date of The Perils of Being Moderately Famous is still not decided but it is clear that it will hit the shelves this year.
Soha Ali Khan is the youngest daughter of legendary actress Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, the 9th Nawab of Pataudi. Soha considers herself a 'moderately famous' celebrity and so the title of her debut book is The Perils of Being Moderately Famous. Soha Ali Khan is in herself an avid reader and boasts of having a reading speed of 510 words per minute (that's some magic, Soha!). While announcing her book, Soha also shared how a bunch of close people encouraged her to write a book.
So she creatively penned down her memories, her life as a real princess and around all the celeb family members. Although, Soha said that The Perils of Being Moderately Famous is mostly about her only and readers may not expect any breakthrough revelations about the Pataudi family.
Gurveen Chadha, the editor of Penguin India, also spoke about The Perils of Being Moderately by Soha Ali Khan. She said
Having read a few chapters, I can safely say Soha was born to write. She has amassed a huge fan following not only for her movies but also for her witty repartee on Twitter, and her charm and wit continue to shine in this brilliant collection of personal essays where she recounts with self-deprecating humour some of the most poignant moments of her life—from growing up as a modern-day princess to life as a celebrity in the times of social media culture.
So, all we know as of now is that you need wait for the release of The Perils of Being Moderately Famous by Soha Ali Khan. Don't worry! As soon as more details are announced, we will update you. Are you a fan of Soha? Show some love to her in comments. 😀

This is concerning an article by Kevin Freking, �Bush issues conscience rule � Critics see health risk to patients� (Telegram & Gazette, Nov. 19).
I commend the Bush administration�s decision to prohibit recipients of federal money from discriminating against doctors, nurses and other health care workers who refuse to perform or to assist in the performances of abortions, or sterilization procedures because of their religious beliefs or moral convictions.
James Madison recognized religious freedom as a fundamental right that precedes the state and which cannot be severely curtailed or denied by it. Religion expresses the deepest aspirations of the human person, shapes people�s vision of the world, and affects their relationships with others; basically, it offers the answer to the question of the true meaning of life, both personal and communal.
Religious freedom therefore constitutes the very heart of human rights.
Secularists who oppose the Bush initiative are motivated by a totalitarian concept of the state. According to this mentality, the state is a sort of Supreme Being that is above us and tells us how to live.
But this is not reality. It should be the state that conforms to the society it serves, not the other way around. This is the essence of democracy. The opposite is dictatorship and totalitarianism.
Contrary to the political pundits, President George W. Bush, a man of deep faith and conviction, will one day be judged kindly by history. He�ll be judged as an authentic promoter and defender of life, liberty and happiness.

'Better than soggy smelly pads!' I couldn't believe the difference that a small bit of plastic makes to my exercising! I went from embarrassing pads and jumper tied around my middle - to a size smaller and dry exercising - Phew! What a relief! I like to do body combat, it is physical and lots of jumping, and jarring, and whenever I has to do some set routines I would leak, it really stopped me letting myself go and getting the best out of my exercise class.
Easy to use, simple to rinse, I use it for exercising and I presume it just supports or adds pressure somewhere important - but I really can't feel it. Absolutely amazing, much better than buying soggy smelly panty pads Girls!
"Brilliant!!" I am a competitive runner who had come to accept that incontinence was the price I paid for continuing in my sport, and used pads all the time, and became resilient to the embarrassment of running wet. Within 2 runs of using Contiform I have ditched the pads and run 100% dry. It really is life changing for me
Wendy Allen and Anthea Reus – Nurse Continence Advisors, Pelvic Floor Bladder Unit, St George
"User friendly" Once sized correctly Contiform is a very user friendly device that provides women with added confidence to carry out normal activities. Especially effective for those who leak mainly during sport or exercise. In our experience, it is a very useful tool for managing stress incontinence.
-Claire, Toronto
"A real liberation"
I'm raving to my contacts about this product because it has allowed me to resume my physical activity without worrying about leaking. Contiform is great news and a real liberation!

I've suffered from MS for close to 20 years and Afex has allowed me to resume my daily pilates without thinking about leaks. I'm comfortable, dry, odour free and best of all no one knows I'm using it. Thank you Afex!
Robert from USA
I had prostate cancer in 2004 and for the last 14 years have had to wear diapers and needing to change every 2 hours like a baby - no fun!! Until I found the HeWee Go ACTIVE system and now I'm in heaven! I give this product 10 out of 10 as it has changed my life. If you have any questions contact Alex at Custom Divers - he will be very happy to help you. Very happy user!
Hewee Go.
Only had it for a few days as I have short term issues caused by medical treatment, this causes frequency and urgency issues, but life must go on. Having being restricted when going out to a 40 minute max between peeing I can actually go out and do things. With the HeWee it allowed me to go out visiting, errands and for a meal, first time in over a month! The negatives are the diaphragm take some getting used too [build the time up and use talc!] Looser fitting trousers also better. The positives are that I can get on with everything without always looking for the loo's or dashing off every 10-40 minutes etc!
L.M. Toronto, ON, Canada
My daughter is a 16 year old competitive trampolinist and developed urinary incontinence in the past year. Pads were impossible to keep discreet in her leotard, so we tried a disposable, insertable brand from the drugstore- it had her in tears trying to remove it and it was very uncomfortable to wear. Our last resort and only other option was being fitted for a pessary from a gynecologist- imagine at 16! A friend of mine found Contiform online for herself and suggested we try it because it worked so well for her. It was a bit cumbersome at first glance but once folded and wetted with water she said it was as easily and comfortably inserted and removed as a small tampon. My daughter is so happy that she's dry and no one knows she has a "leak" problem. L.M. Toronto, ON, Canada
M.P. Cornwall, ON, Canada
I am a busy Mom of two and play hockey in the winter and ball hockey in the summer. I typically go through one heavy pad each game period which I have to leave the game for. Plus just regular day to day activities has me wearing pads all day every day. My Mom found Contiform online and suggested I buy it and considering how much I spend on pads every week anything was worth a shot. It works! I am so happy to not think about pads for my leakage all day that I feel a weight off my shoulders. I can focus on my kids and sports and not how often I have to change a pad or worry about an accident through my clothes. Thank you Contiform! M.P. Cornwall, ON, Canada

Local man says his infrared camera allows predictions of fire movement.
If fire officials couldn't see the Okanagan Mountain Park fire advance through all the smoke, then Curtis Bennett saw more than they did.
Bennett, of Thermografix Consulting, told the Provincial Firestorm Review Thursday that he used his infrared camera to see what no one else could.
More frustrating for Bennett was that no one would let him show the value of the special camera, which he says is far more advanced than typical forward-looking infrared cameras.
"Then I find out they are blind looking through the smoke when I can let them see the direction the fire is taking before it even gets there," Bennett told the Filmon commission.
He produced a series of pictures he took showing a typical camera view of smoke from Aug. 22.
But in infrared, the fire is seen spreading quickly along the hillside.
In other photos, he shows people milling about on a smoky street. Switch to infrared and you can see the fire on a hillside not far behind the people.
"It is not just the equipment, it is the interpretation of this technology and heat transfer," he says.
"Why not treat a forest fire for what it is, which is one big hot spot."
He maintains that using different sensitivity settings, he can see heat build ahead of the fire which, with the right training, might help predict fire movement.
He uses the camera in private commercial applications such as showing structural defects in buildings.
Fire fighters already use infrared cameras in certain applications but Bennett insists he can prove the value of his camera and his know-how.

Relevant Viewpoint: Creative predictions for 2017
Relevant Viewpoint investigates pain points, success stories and trends in the industry and in this interview we discuss the progress made by publishers in 2016 and what to expect in 2017 with Gustaf Jilken, Director Nordics, Integral Ad Science (IAS).
The media trends are changing and we see a tendency towards more transparency and control on both sides of the fence – whether you're a publisher or an advertiser, you want to be certain on what you are trading. How does IAS see this coming into effect?
At the close of 2016, publishers found themselves faced with a somewhat confusing landscape. Whilst agencies and advertisers have been looking to define and implement some of their own viewability standards, publishers have in turn been trying to develop bespoke trading mechanisms. Some of these demands and metrics can include:
– 100% 'in-view' requirements
– Time-based selling (e.g. Cost Per Hour)
– Custom viewability thresholds (e.g. 70% in view, 10 seconds minimum etc)
– Only paying for viewable impressions
Alongside trying to improve their own viewability results and dealing with increasing agency demands, publishers have also had to contend with the recent increase of readers installing ad blockers. Ad blocking has raised concerns around the quality of ads and highlighted the importance of a good user experience. In order to reduce ad blocker usage, publishers should always keep the user front of mind whilst working to improve viewability, and ensure they deliver only high quality, relevant ads.
With both publishers and agencies somewhat veering away from the industry standard definition for viewability, some publishers don't know where to turn. Many, of course, are staying put, and are trying to second-guess where the industry is heading. What does seem to be clear however, is that we are moving towards trading on viewability, e.g.paying only for viewable impressions. Publishers who are prepared for this will fair well.
So with the combination of ad blocking and a proliferation of viewability trading models, overall 2016 was a challenging year for publishers. But what has 2017 got in store?
Brand safety and ad fraud will continue to rise in prominence for advertisers, but 2017 will also see the industry move beyond viewability. Advertisers and publishers alike will consider both viewability as well as additional metrics when assessing a campaign's success, such as:
– The quality of ad placements
– The quality of the audience
– Average / total time in view
– Time and exposure at a user level
– Ad clutter
IAS already did integrated with major ad servers like Smart Adserver in order to give publishers more control in handling viewability metrics and offer their advertisers more premium products. So we see an interest from both the demand and supply side to deliver better controls, results and metrics.
To date the ad blocking debate has focused, somewhat unfairly, on the publisher side of the industry. How do you see the publisher turning this topic around and do you think the publisher can make the change and take advantage of the situation?
2017 will see increasing pressure on advertisers and their creative agencies to deliver more relevant ad formats, as well as lighter ad units. Heavy and slow-loading creative assets have a negative impact on user experience and have an impact on levels of ad blocking. For the most part this has been largely ignored, with most coverage around 'poor publishers with large numbers of badly placed obstructive ad formats'. What about the premium publishers with a single ad format, or just two ad slots per page, who are handed a slow-loading creative which negatively impacts both viewability and user experience? We need to see more pressure from advertisers and agencies on creative agencies to deliver more manageable creative formats.
Whilst ad blocking, agency demands and media quality are all here to stay for 2017, a big focus for publishers will be time-based, or CPH (Cost Per hour) ad campaigns. The Economist was the trailblazer here, with the Guardian and the Financial Times following suit with similar offerings. And we recently saw JP/Politikens Hus in Denmark introduce time based advertising. Research undertaken by IAS and IPG found that the ideal time for a user to be exposed to an ad is nine times, for over 10 seconds. We will most likely see an increase in the number of publishers offering time based solutions in 2017, especially if it can be proved to increase advertising effectiveness. The next step is how these campaigns can be delivered both programmatically and in an automated manner.
Finally, the industry will continue to focus on trust and transparency, with increasing relevance of industry bodies like the MRC and ABC. Publishers who embrace this and ensure they work with trusted vendors are a step ahead.
2016 has been a challenging year for publishers with the persistence and growth of ad blocking, a variety of agency viewability demands, and publishers looking at their own models. 2017 will see similar trends as the market slowly moves towards fully trading on viewability.
Premium publishers however should have absolute confidence in the quality journalism they produce, particularly with the rise of fake news sites, and should embrace media quality as a way of standing out from the crowd.

Pretty sure that notion should never be trotted out again, as this week has well shown.
With the weeks events still swirling about us, what can the two teams under the most pressure and public glare conjure up?
- A team that has just had its biggest defeat at home, again runs out in front of its loyal yet thinning fans to take on a premiership contender. Hard to imagine posting a win, but can they at least put in a four-quarter effort?
- As far away as possible from teams home, a yet-to-be-cleared-of-wrongdoing team takes on another clear candidate for finals, perhaps even top 4 side on their own turf. How man times can they 'go to the wells' marked "do it for your coach" and "we are better than that"? Can their great start continue, defying the pressure?
After what we thought last week was an easy round to tip, the numbers for this round look even more lopsided. In fact this week gives a higher average winning margin, and a lower deviation, suggesting it is a very lopsided round of football ahead. Further adding weight to that, the differences between home and away rankings points is the largest this season to date, and also for at least the next 2 rounds (round 6 looks to be very lopsided!)
Wow... the closest tip of the week, a 3 goal win to Geelong over Carlton. Three other games fit into the 'win by 4 goal' bracket.
Is it just us that thinks this week looks an easy tipping game? Henry de Cure (and a few others on twitter) think its a tougher week than we do.
You deserve more than a whopper if you get 9 this week in footy tipping. Nightmare round to tip. #afl
— Henry de Cure (@hcdc93) April 11, 2013
The Mezzoculo Index* for past form and predicted future looks a little like this.
Looking this, we can see some justification for Henry's concern...
- GWS are in better form than St Kilda, and
- the Suns are listed as our 2nd best recently performed team, and
- Port Adelaide are under a Hinkley revival while Adelaide are 'doing just enough'.
There are also a raft of teams battling this week with similar form lines.
* A teams position on the rungs above indicates how they have gone in the last 5 weeks... if a team is higher on the scale, its been on fire. If a team is at the bottom, they have cooled off and lacking form.
The size of the team marker indicates how we think they will run for the next 3 games... the bigger the marker, the more likely to win.
None of the actions around the disintegrating clubs will be helping the AFL brand, which after some great football over the last two weeks, is slowly sinking in the public's eye.

All through the front of house spaces dance artists mingle with public, some in person, some on screen in especially filmed short pieces, some through their words plastered on the walls.
Inside the seats have gone from the stalls, which has become a promenade area. On stage, an eclectic collection of Sadler's Wells featured artists bring the sold out house works that range from hip hop through classical Indian dance, pure ballet, contemporary, flamenco and African-inspired dance theatre.
Brand new this year was an extract from choreographer Richard Alston's latest work, Brahms Hungarian, set to Brahms Hungarian Dances for Piano played live by Jason Ridgway. Once again, we marvelled at the musical sweep of Alston's choreography, his trademark blend of classical and contemporary moves, his response to Brahms' references to the Hungarian czardas, all meticulously and joyfully performed by his Richard Alston Dance Company.
Also new was flamenco dancer Patrica Guerrero's Proceso Eterno. In a lustrous lead-coloured long dress and accompanied first by a percussionist and later by a singer, Guerrero danced a fiery foot-stamping, swirling solo created by her to bring traditional flamenco into the 21st century.
Equally entrancing, but in a meditative, other-worldly way, was Mavi Khoo's Odissi Solo, a classical Indian dance originating in the temple traditions of eastern India's Orissa state. Accompanied by four Indian classical musicians, Khoo, a small, intense figure clad in subdued gold and red, danced within a square of light – his every movement neat and precise, his red painted palms drawing soft lines in front of his torso.
Mavin Khoo, Odissi Solo (c) Wong Horng Yih
From Dresden in Germany came two dancers from Semperoper Ballet, whose visit to Sadler's Wells last summer was rapturously received.
Sangeun Lee and Raphaël Coumes-Marquet danced two pas de deux: the first from Balanchine's Diamonds, to recorded Tchaikovsky music, was the choreographer's homage to the classicism and courtly grandeur of Imperial Russia; and William Forsythe's Bach Duet to Bach's Alemande Partita No. 1.
Sangeun Lee in particular is a striking dancer: tall, leggy and lithe, her body creates luscious shapes, be it in a fluid back bend or in the seeming infinite reach of her arms.
Of the two works, the Forsythe worked best; Balanchine's duet looking somewhat bare and out of place without its proper context.
Rambert's junior company, Rambert2, reprised one of the works of its inaugural programme – Sharon Eyal and Gai Behar's Killer Pig, here much more impactful as a 20 minute extract than it was in its original overlong full format. To a thumping one-two, one-two electronic score by Ori Lichtick, the young dancers showed their mettle in a work of fierce, at times savage physicality.
Hip hop opened and closed the evening. There is something enthusiastic and endearingly amateurish about the six women of Uchenna Dance and their African-inflected whaacking-styled number, The Head Wrap Diaries.
BirdGang brought the evening to a euphoric close with its athletic brand of hip hop, the dancers' faces masked so that only the bodies spoke to us – and how they spoke! The work's title asked, What Is BirdGang? Now we know...
Sadler's Wells Sampled does indeed illustrate the extraordinary range and vitality of the North London dance house; but, on balance, the show itself feels a little like a meal with a varied and abundant hors d'oeuvre, that nevertheless leaves diners craving a main course.

Around 40 expert participants from Europe learnt about technical progress at Arburgs Freeformer user day conference in Lossburg on April 10th, held at its German headquarters.
The focus was on the exchange of new materials in the field of Arburg Plastic Freeforming (APF).
In four specialist presentations, the APF experts explained the progress they have made in industrial additive manufacturing with the Freeformer, such as the updated slicing software.
After the participants had received a theoretical introduction to material qualification and the current range of materials, the next step was to put what they had learned into practice.
The guests worked together with the APF experts to take part in five workshops, with tasks such as preparing the machine and materials, determine the optimum temperature and droplet geometry and then additively manufacture and analyse test parts.
ARBURG GmbH + Co KG
Patric Kaisers and other APF experts presented the latest further developments at the Freeformer User Day 2018.
Eberhard Lutz, Director of Freeformer Sales at Arburg, said: "We have achieved a great deal in the past few months and are pleased to present further major advances in Arburg Plastic Freeforming today."
Dr Agnes Kloke, Plastic Freeforming Technology Development at Arburg, explained: "We can already provide standard profiles for a number of materials, which can be used to produce functional components that have 100 percent the same mechanical properties as injection-moulded parts in the horizontal build orientation."
Dr Eberhard Duffner, Director Development and Plastic Freeforming, provided insights on the innovations that his development team is currently working on.

Creamy Chicken Noodle Casserole
- 1 whole rotisserie chicken
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 6 oz. egg noodles, cooked (about 3 cups cooked noodles)
- 1 tablespoon parsley, minced
- 2 (10.75 oz.) cans cream of chicken soup
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup crushed butter crackers
- Cooking spray
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare a 2-quart baking dish by spraying it with some cooking spray. Set aside.
Prep the rotisserie chicken by shredding the breast and leg quarter meat only. Meat should be shredded into smaller pieces. Discard bones and skin. Place shredded meat into a large mixing bowl.
Next, combine the shredded chicken with the soup and sour cream. Add in dried thyme, peas and carrots. Season with salt and pepper. Toss everything together so all ingredients are well combined. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, combine the crushed butter crackers, parsley and the melted butter. Toss well. Top casserole with the cracker mixture.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until casserole is heated through and slightly bubbly on the sides. The top of the casserole will be nice a golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly cool, about 5-10 minutes.
Makes approximately 6 servings.
Kitchen Activities for Budding Chefs
Little Chef
- Have your child help pull the leaves off of the parsley stems. This is a great way to develop their fine motor skills.
- Working together, have your child help you shred the chicken or remove the skin from the chicken. Let them taste the chicken as you work through this step.
- Pour butter crackers into a re-sealable plastic bag. Allow your child to help crush the crackers.
- Talk about the colors of the peas and carrots. Let them sample them. Talk about the taste, smell and texture of the veggies.
- Once the butter has been melted, have them pour the crushed crackers into the butter. Allow them to add the minced parsley to the bowl. They can help mix the cracker topping together and help sprinkle on top of the casserole.
- Once the casserole has cooled, allow them to taste the recipe and see if they like it.
Kid Chef
- Have your child prepare the baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray.
- Work together to use the microwave to melt the butter for the recipe.
- Have your child help you shred the chicken, separate the skin and bones from the meat.
- Allow your child to help measure the sour cream, season with salt/pepper and pour the soup into the mixing bowl.
- With adult supervision, practice knife skills and carefully mince the parsley.
- Working together, have your child mix the ingredients (pasta, chicken, soup, sour cream, veggies and spices) together and carefully pour into the baking dish.
- Using a timer, practice keeping track of the cooking time.
- Once the recipe is done, allow them to taste their creation and ask them to describe the flavor.

Boston College Eagles Boston Tickets
The Boston College Eagles have been one of the most consistent college sports programs in the country and their varsity teams have put up reasonably good performances over the last few years. Their student athletes have also posted some of the best academic records in college sports, confirming their reputation as an institution that puts importance on both athletic and academic achievements. The Eagles have enjoyed a great run of form over the years and have won national championships in several sports, including ice hockey in which they have won five titles to date. If you want to watch them in action as well, get your Boston College Eagles Boston tickets and do just that live.
The Boston College Eagles have been among the best college sports programs for a very long time. Quite a few future professional major league players have plied their trade at the university over the years. Boston college's students have been very good in academics as well and that is an added advantage of studying at the institution.
Time to Start
In 1893, football became one of the first sports to be played at the university after two undergraduates, Joseph F. O'Connell and Joseph Drum, convinced the President of the college to let them assemble a varsity team. Since then the sports program has increased in size by quiet a margin and consists of twenty nine varsity sports today, in both male and female categories.
Keep on Going
The Eagles have won quite a lot of national titles over the years in a wide variety of sports. Their most successful varsity sports team to date has been the men's ice hockey team which has managed to win five national championships, with the last one coming in 2012. Their men's and women's hockey teams have also accumulated seventeen regular season conference titles and fourteen tournament crowns.
The men's basketball program has come to the fore as well now to win all four of their conference crowns between 1981 and 2005. The football team also has won national title and one conference championship to its credit. Now that the latest season is underway, this is your chance to watch them play. Book your Boston College Eagles Boston tickets and watch all the action live from the stands.
