Who Am I?
Personal Trainer
I wear many hats, I am a mom of two who adores working in the Fitness Industry. I am passionate about helping others lead a healthier lifestyle through education, inspiration and motivation!
My Background
As a teenager, I was always active – I studied Martial Arts for years and was the only female black belt in my club at the age of 16.
I got into dance (salsa) at the ripe old age of 21 and became a professional dancer/teacher/performer/DJ – I spent 12 years travelling the world before I became a mom.
I started teaching Dance Fitness the year before I became pregnant with my daughter, Zumba was just making its way into the limelight and I was the first to bring it to my area.
I discovered other courses and finally decided to move into Fitness full time when my maternity leave came to an end.
Since then, I've qualified in many fitness niches (Pre/Postnatal and Children's Fitness), became a PT, moved in Tutoring and Assessing and I run weekly group fitness classes as well as having a full list of PT clients.
Growing up I was always ill with one thing or another, my immune system was weak and I would lose a lot of time from work and it was frustrating.
It wasn't until I became a mom and moved into Fitness Full time that I realised I wasn't taking good care of myself.
I focused more on nutrition alongside exercise and realised that I was no longer getting ill as often (I very rarely get ill now) and I knew more about healthy eating because of my children.
I have had my own struggles with my weight, as I got older, the emphasis became more about self-care and in particular mental health as I suffered from PND after both my children.
Why Should You Work With Me?
I know what it's like to struggle and feel as if you are failing or just don't have the energy to do the everyday things you want to do.
I want to be healthy so I can spend the best quality time with my children. I know I need to exercise and eat well to help me do that and I have the knowledge, experience and qualifications to be able to help you do the same!

The secret to Pinterest marketing success is simple – it's about the images.
The best news is that when you learn to create high-performing images for Pinterest FAST, you don't need to have a huge backlog of content to see results. You don't need a degree in design. And you DEFINITELY don't need to spend hours and hours on Pinterest marketing every week for it to pay off.
Let's get down to how to make irresistible Pinterest images in minutes.
What Makes an Irresistible Pinterest Image?
It's part art, part science, all fun! Remember, people are on Pinterest to open to new ideas and products and are excited to find inspiration as they search and browse.
How to Make Irresistible Pinterest Images:
- Using a striking visual – a professional, in-focus image where your product or service is the focus.
- Emotional resonance – make a connection by providing inspiration and information.
- Branding – add your logo at the top or bottom of the image in the center. Make it noticeable but tasteful.
- Provide context to show how to use your product or service – is it central to a time of year, time of day, a special occasion?
- Bold, clear use of a text overlay to convey your main message and help with SEO – provide some context. Make sure it's legible on mobile!
- The vertical format in a 2:3 or 1:2.1 ratio (600×900 – 600×1260 or 1000×1500)
- Get our free templates
Whether it's a product photo you've taken yourself, images from a custom lifestyle shoot, or the perfect stock image, the background image for your Pin sets the stage for success – literally. If you're selling a product, you'll want to feature it prominently, but probably won't want to use all product images on a plain white background. Try putting them in a real-life setting, photograph it from different angles, or simply show someone enjoying it in their lives.
Pinterest Images Make an Impact with Emotional Connection
Pinners love the platform and often cite the fact that it's an oasis from the negativity of social media as one of the top reasons it's their "happy place." It's a place people go to look for inspiration and ideas. Make sure your images foster those feelings.
Include Branding on Your Pinterest Images
While 98% of Pinterest searches are unbranded, Pinterest consistently reports that subtle branding increases overall Pin effectiveness. While no reason has been given to explain this effect, it could be that seeing that brand name prepares the person clicking on the Pin for the site they're about to visit, builds trust and awareness, making them more likely to take action on the site.
Provide Context for Your Pinterest Images
Show people how to use your product or service. Show it in use in real life; and whenever possible, tie in a connection with an event, season, or an everyday moment – like dinnertime with family, homework with the kids, or starting your workday.
Add Bold, Clear Text to Your Pinterest Images
Since most of your Pin description isn't visible in the feed, let people know what your Pin is about with some helpful text on your image. Give them a reason to click.
Did you know that Pinterest reads the text on your images?!?! It's true! So, make sure to incorporate keywords on your image.
And while Pinterest can read your text, make sure humans can as well! Skip the curly, fancy fonts and stick with the easy-to-read text while using plenty of contrast with the background. Remember, most people will see your Pin on mobile where script fonts can be hard to make out.
The Ideal Size For a Pinterest Image
Pinterest has provided clear guidelines:
- 2:3 ratio is recommended. That could be 1000x1500px or any equivalent ratio
- You can go up to a 1:2.1 ratio before your image may be cut off in the feed or not distributed. That works out to be 1000x2100px or equivalent.
What If I Don't Have Enough Content for Pinterest?
Make more. Pinterest gets specific about what they're looking for when it says
"You should create new Pins linking to your claimed accounts at least once a week. Consistent, ongoing activity is the best way to build a dedicated audience on Pinterest."
For those of us strapped for time, the good news is that "content" can just be a new Pin on Pinterest!
Make More Pinterest Images for Each Blog Post and Product Page
Isn't one enough?
I know, I know. When you hit "publish" on a blog post, the last thing you want to do is spend MORE time thinking about it.
Fortunately, creating multiple Pins for each post or product can be quick and easy, and there are compelling reasons to do so!
That's right, the easiest way to multiply your Pinterest traffic is to multiply the number of new Pins for each page or post on your site or blog!
What Makes a "New" Pin on Pinterest?
For a while, we were told that simply changing the description on a Pin would make a "new" Pin, possibly increasing your opportunities for exposure and distribution. Many people consider a "new" Pin to be anything other than a Repin. While it can all seem rather confusing, the actual answer is quite simple.
A new Pin is a new image/URL combination. So, you could make 10 images for one blog post or product listing and have 10 new Pins! Or, you could make 10 new blog posts with an image for each and have 10 new Pins. I think it's pretty clear which is easier to do!
6X Pinterest Traffic with When You Make More Pin Images!
A new image for an older post can breathe new life into your content on Pinterest and bring in more traffic, too. It's not simply the result of giving Pinterest what it wants (new Pins!) either. New designs can appeal to different people, giving your content a better chance at attracting the all-important click!
How to Choose Content for Creating New Pins
Naturally, you want the best return for your time spent, so you'll want to choose carefully which content gets a fresh new Pin (or five).
Use Google Analytics to look at winners and losers for traffic. If a post or page is doing really well, YOU capitalize on that trend with a new image. If the piece never really took off or the traffic is sliding, YOU make a new image to try to revive it.
How Many Pins Should I Make for Every New Post?
The answer is…as many as you reasonably can! But it also depends on the volume of content you have and your publishing schedule. For example, if you have 10 blog posts and you only publish one new post a month, creating 4-5 images for each post will keep you adding something brand new to Pinterest every single week. Consistent activity is a signal Pinterest watches for and rewards with greater distribution.
If you have 300 blog posts or product listings, you might just choose the ones that convert the best or the ones that are most relevant this time of year and create 1-2 new images for each.
For every blog post, we create at least 5 different variations on the image, as well as the Pin description, then use Tailwind to schedule out those Pins using interval Pinning. At the same time, we pick which image we think will work the best and add that to Tailwind Tribes.
How to Make New Pins for Existing Content – Fast
Don't feel like you need to start from scratch every time. Some savvy Pinterest marketers have image templates on hand that they can reuse for every single post. And you don't always need to start from a completely different main image, either. You could:
- Zoom in on your product or stock image
- Rotate the background image
- Change the text on the image to highlight a different benefit or feature
- Mix colors and filters
- Change text fonts and sizes.
- The idea here isn't to "trick" Pinterest into thinking you have a new Pin so they'll increase your content reach – it's to present your content in a fresh, new way that inspires people to click.
Pinterest does look for continuity between Pin image and the images on your page, so you might find you have better results if you stick with a similar style or color scheme, but test it out for yourself!
Try Templates for Faster Pinterest Image Creation
Speaking of templates – we've created a bunch to give away
In Conclusion
There IS, in fact, a magic formula for creating irresistible Pinterest images that drive traffic:
- Start with striking visuals in a vertical format
- Make sure you elicit an emotional response
- Feature your branding
- Provide context and play into seasonality or everyday events
- Use a clear text overlay to provide context and help with SEO
- Make use of templates to make more images in less time.
So, what do you say? Have a few seconds to make great Pins this week?

Here is a look back to some of the schools events we have had in earlier years.
2018 Events for Primary Schools
Minibeasts: a microscopic safari
Take a journey from everyday life down into the realm of microscopic wonders with Marty Jopson, the BBC One Show's resident scientist. The adventure will take you to a world totally invisible to the unaided eye. Marty begins with hugely magnified insects, but soon moves to plants too small to see and even bacteria, all demonstrated live on the stage. A show full of interactive demonstrations and samples harvested from the audience. You have been warned!
A show supported by Zeiss, global leaders in the manufacture of microscopes.
The Real Science of Fireworks
Internationally-recognised pyrotechnician Matthew Tosh introduces you to his explosive world of pyrotechnic science, revealing how firework displays create colours, sound effects and perfectly timed bursts. Matthew will bring his fascination of how things work as he demonstrates how science, technology and engineering ensure that displays are spectacular, accurate and safe for the public. The sights, sounds and smells of fireworks are all brought to life just a few metres from the audience in an experience guaranteed to thrill.
Surprising Science
In a show packed with science tricks, stunts and puzzles, Matt Pritchard challenges the audience to discover the sneaky scientific secrets behind surprising illusions. This is not just an awe and wonder show but one that encourages scientific enquiry and critical thinking skills. Along the way the audience will be taught a host of science tricks using everyday household objects that they can go away and try later; extending the learning and providing teachers with lots of follow up opportunities. During the show Matt will share his background and love of science.
2017 Events For Primary Schools
Music To Your Ears
Award winning science communicator David Price from Science Made Simple as he explained how sounds are produced and how you can control them to make music. We learned how to make a simple instrument, heard the amazing hands-free theremin and saw how CDs and MP3s can store your favourite sounds.
Find out more about the show here and find out more about David Price here
The World Of Owls And Raptors
We delved into the world of birds of prey with Head Falconer Ryan Stocks and learned all about these amazing animals. The audience were delighted to see trained owls fly around the room and sometimes land on volunteers hands and discovered how they hunt using their powerful senses and sharp talons.
Find out more about Owl Adventures here
Can You Believe Your Eyes!
Using visual illusions the Colour Experience team from Bradford explored the difference between vision and perception, looking at an amazing range of cool optical effects to boggle the audiences brain. They also got to grips with the different colours in light and even made a rainbow or two.
Find out more about the Colour Experience here
2016 Events for Primary Schools

I decided to write this post as I am currently obsessed with rugs! I recently decided there are too few rugs in our home and this is a 'problem' I have decided to rectify this autumn. My husband argues that rugs remind him of his granny's house and he has categorised them as an old person's home accessory, yet I have put up quite a convincing argument on the contrary.
Rugs have never lost their appeal – they always have been readily available in all good furniture stores. The drab patterns I can recall from my childhood were red or green with rather complex and in my opinion, hideous patterns. I was stunned to find a rug (similar to the one pictured left which could be found in my Grandparent's house in the 80's), lying on the floor of my friend's trendy city apartment.
I, however (no matter how trendy these may be) am not arguing for a return of this sort of rug, rather a more modern piece that will add a touch of class to the modern home.
Most of my friends have at least one rug in their home. They offer a homely touch to an otherwise often bare and dull laminate floor. Not forgetting of course the cold touch of a hard laminate floor on a cold winter morning! When buying a rug, consider the purpose of the rug – is its sole function to enhance the decor of the room of are you seeking a more practical purpose?
Rugs come in a variety of materials and vary in density. I can recall falling asleep in front of the fireplace in my old home in which there was no central heating. This cosy, thick and woolly rug was unsuited to my new home (which brought me kicking and screaming into the 21st century with the magical wonder of central heating). My old kitchen floor consisted of cold marble tiles. I can remember the sense of dread on the December mornings before I entered that room. I eventually bought a rug (rather unorthodox I know). This was the best investment piece of the home.
A bold rug can make a huge statement in either a large or a small space.
Decide whether your rug needs to dictate the decor of the room or if you would like it to be incorporated into the existing style of your room. If I want to revamp a room in my home without changing all the decor or furniture, I either replace or add a rug. The flooring or carpet or your room need not be changed.
Rugs come in a vast array of patterns and designs. Consider the style of your home and what you want your home to say about you.
My teenage daughter prefers woven materials and psychedelic patterns which would not be suited to our lounge (or indeed any other room in the home).
I am (quite often desperately and unsuccessfully) trying to create a more modern, classy, elegant atmosphere in my home. Before the arrival of my toddler, I opted for beige woollen rugs.
Now, however, I have to consider the amount of mess my toddler makes and use everything in my power to hide the frequent and excessive stains that occur from daily life.
I now choose cheaper more colourful rugs which are now more practical for our home.
How to 'Correctly' Place a Rug
This depends on the room in which the rug will be housed. In a lounge, for instance, designers suggest placing the furniture along the outer edges of the rug.
If your room is particularity large (like mine) this will then require an especially large rug. Large rugs are more popular at the moment and are therefore readily available. If using a rug in the bedroom, designers suggest laying the rug under the bed.
As with all interior posts, I would strongly suggest you use your own ideas here. If, like me, you want your rug to be a showpiece in your bedroom, it will serve little purpose underneath a bed – if you have the room, display it if you wish.
I have a habit of placing my lounge rug close to the fireplace. I pay little attention to the furniture in relation to the placement of the rug. To me, a rug in front of the fireplace creates a comforting and welcoming atmosphere.
The sheer amount of materials and patterns widely available make the rug an attractive piece of furnishing and a wise investment. Rugs could be incorporated into an existing decor, to warm a cold room, or to dominate an otherwise dull room, there are so many options. Use a rug in your home to revamp or to make a statement. As with all things in your home, make sure the item you buy reflects you and your personality.

Everyone loves a favorite dog account, but would you at any time wonder just what dogs were the most used in The usa, or throughout the world?
And although you may know a better solution, that is what exactly is popular nowadays, which can soon function as past. Having an average life span of about 12 decades, it will not take miss real planet ownership dog popularities to improve. What will be more intriguing is just what dog breeds people are trying to find NOW on the web, because the particular dogs sought out now, will shortly become the most used dogs regarding tomorrow. People usually seek out dog breeds they've got or will purchase, and this informative article includes the most notable five puppies of five of the very most dog adoring countries on earth!
What We have done will be mark the most notable breed lookup volume since 100% and also compare all of those other lower researched breeds compared to that value. Thus any French bulldog benefit of 67% ensures that this dog term in the us, acreoss almost all languages, revieves roughly two thirds with the searches the top reproduce German Shepherd can. This analysis is made for the newest Google info release regarding February 2011.
THE USA = [german shepherd] 100%; [french bulldog] 67%; [bernese mountain dog] 45%; [boxer dogs] 20%; [newfoundland dog] 20%
QUARTERLY REPORT = [german shepherd] 100%; [labrador] 100%; [french bulldog] 82%; [pomeranian] 82%; [golden retriever] 82%
EUROPE = [bernese mountain dog] 100%; [german shepherd] 100%; [golden retriever] 100%; [rottweiler] 100%; [pomeranian] 82%
BRITISH = [beagle] 100%; [german shepherd] 100%; [rottweiler] 100%; [labrador] 100%; [pomeranian] 82%
EIRE = [yorkshire terrier] 100%; [golden retriever] 81%; [german shepherd] 81%; [beagle] 63%; [rottweiler] 63%
Along with your breed statistics it really is useulf to learn how many dog breeds which can be included inside each country's leading fifty puppy associated lookups, and what the most notable breed lookup volumes come in absolute phrases. These statistics are:
The usa 7 breeds inside top 60 searches, leading breed 110, 000 searches each month
Australia 13 breeds, leading breed 6, 1000 searches
Europe 23; leading breed 12, 100 lookups
UK five breeds leading breed 20, 100 lookups
Ireland 14 breeds, leading breed 1, 1000 searches
Puppy Analysis
America gets the most puppy associated searches as well as the top specific dog searches regarding any region. Yet that only provides seven certain dog breeds inside their top 60 dog linked searches, the best number with the five nations around the world an analysed. America will have simple dog lookup related phrases, rather as compared to specific reproduce information. This might be because there is certainly an expectation the large puppy sites can contain every one of the specific reproduce information etc which they may need. Unlike one other countries, the lookup volumes usually are not evenly spread involving the breeds, there exists a rapid fall off in lookup popularity involving the top puppy, German shepherd, as well as the fifth many searched reproduce, the newfoundland puppy which simply has 20% with the searches.
Australia provides more puppy breeds (13) inside their top 60 searches, and over a per capita schedule Australia provides more puppy related lookups than The usa. However the most notable Australian reproduce specific lookup volume (for your German Shepherd) is lower than 5% regarding America's leading breed (furthermore the In german Shepherd). Together with Australia getting. With Quarterly report being concerning 14% regarding Americas human population, America's leading breed search can be a spectacularly large volume (110, 000 searches each month)
Canada gets the most puppy breeds (12) of most countries inside their top 60 dog connected searches. The top puppy searches regarding 12. 100 can be very lower than America's. This reproduce specific lookup strategy demonstrates Canadian's have become strongly attached with their certain breeds.
UK could be the world's very best dogs on the web search region per capita. In addition, it has a really big puppy ownership. Amazingly it simply has five dog breeds inside its leading fifty lookups. In general great britain is one of the most dog humane country together with many misplaced dog residence related searches inside the top 60 terms.
Ireland only features a population around 3 thousand people and contains a extremely close geographic proximity for the UK. Additionally it is the next highest puppy related lookup country every capita merely behind great britain. But nearly the same as the BRITISH it simply has 14 specific puppy breeds inside its leading fifty puppy related lookups.

The journey through ODL is not an easy task. Dropout rate continues to escalate in most ODL programmes, with only the determined students making it to the end. It is imperative that ODL institutions put in place effective support systems for students to fall back on. ODL students are faced with a lot of emotional and psychological obstacles as they navigate through their educational journey.
For e-learning, transactional distance is 'the distance between teachers and learners'. Both tutors and students experience a sense of separation that is caused by more than simple physical distance. This distance is psychological. There is also a communication gap, a space of potential misunderstanding between the inputs of instructor and those of the learner. This is created, in part, by the physical distance. Students may feel isolated or disconnected. This results in reduced motivation, reduced engagement that may result in high attrition. When offering Mathematics and Statistics programme by distance, one needs to consider factors that affect the transactional distance. i.e. structure and dialogue.
In this regard, students need the right tools, guidance and support. The authors here make an analysis of the registration process onto the Mathematics and Statistics program by DE, look at the professional and technical support the students receive as they navigate through their journey. Other variables such as the factors contributing to high dropout rates, various delivery modes and impact on the pass rates are also presented. The paper aims to develop a student support package for those undertaking BSc Mathematics and Statistics programs.
It is hoped that the study will be extended to other programmes in the faculty and maybe to all universities that conduct Mathematics and Statistics programmes by ODL.
Keywords: dropout rate, support systems for students, psychological obstacles, reduced motivation.

A gathering is coming. An event, like no other. Half a million motorcycle enthusiasts, live music fans, and street-food lovers will ride to the Black Hills of South Dakota to attend this iconic rally and enjoy ten days and nights of riding, food, shopping and live music. A rally so big it is known only as Sturgis! Are you curious about what scenery each of the four epic rides has to offer? Here are a few hacks the team at Gail's Harley-Davidson has put together on how to plan your ultimate Sturgis rally this year. So you can experience all that this motorcycle rally has to offer.
Half a million motorcycle enthusiasts, live music fans, and street-food lovers will ride to the Black Hills of South Dakota to attend this iconic rally. Held in a part of the world that offers some of the most scenic rides in the country. Take in the sights, sounds, and smells of Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Devil's Tower and Crazy Horse as you ride through South Dakota back country and enjoy all that is Sturgis.
Motorcycle lovers and Harley-Davidson enthusiasts the world over look forward to Sturgis every year, and the team at Gail's Harley-Davidson is no different. Riders from the East coast and the West coast gather to participate in the community we share. To see friends and family members we only see during this one week each year. As lovers of all things kinetic on two wheels, we know the importance of proper maintenance and attention to detail. In addition to changing your oil, tensioning the chain, and checking your tires in advance of the upcoming ride you'll also want to prepare for how to enjoy the festival. As the team at Gail's Harley-Davidson eagerly anticipate this year's rally, here are a few thoughts and tips we've gathered on how to make the most out of Sturgis.
Plan Your Rally
Since 1936, when this event was founded, Sturgis has grown from Clarence "Pappy" Hoel buying an Indian Motorcycle Franchise and forming the Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle Club in Sturgis, SD, to when, in 2015, over 750,000 people attended the rally to celebrate its 75th anniversary. With all that there is to see and enjoy, we suggest you pick up your Sturgis souvenirs now before you roll into South Dakota. Save room in your saddle bags by ordering your T-shirts and shot glasses to your home. There are four epic rides taking place during the event. Which one is right for you? Take a look at the routes, so you don't miss out on seeing Bear Butte Mountain or Mount Rushmore.
The first ride is Devil's Tower. Mount up and head out of Sturgis towards Aladdin where the population is 15. As you pass through Beulah, the population rises to 33, and the elevation drops to 3,510 feet. As the day winds on, be sure to stop for lunch at the Ponderosa Cafe near Belle Fourche. Bear Butte & Beyond is the next ride. Here you leave Sturgis and head to the Geographic Center of the Nation. Once you're there, take in Bear Mountain first hand on this iconic loop through Fruitdale, Vale, and Whitewood.
Are you ready to salute your favorite president? Then the Custer State Park ride is the one for you. Ride through Mount Rushmore and see where Cary Grant saved Eva Marie Saint in the Alfred Hitchcock classic, "North By Northwest" then pop over to Spring Creek Traders for refreshments. Are you in need of some General Merchandise or Hunting and Fishing supplies? Get yours at the Nemo Guest Ranch Store then wind through the Vanocker Canyon and break for lunch at Boondocks on the Deadwood & Vanocker Canyon ride.
Experience Southern Rock's Finest
Don't miss the Spirit of Sturgis Vintage Bike Show and the Spirit of Sturgis Vintage Bike Show Industry After Party. SRF is an all-star band composed of former members of Gregg Allman Band, Molly Hatchet, Pure Prairie League, David Allen Coe Group and the Allen Collins Band. Closing night of the rally brings the Insane Clown Posse. If you've never seen them before, now is your chance to experience the face painted duo that rose from the darkness of Detroit's underground music scene with a hardcore, hip-hop style.
Sturgis 2017 Rally Events
In addition to the spectacular scenery, there are events such as the Street Food Throw Down, Mayor's Pub Crawl, and a Police Bike Giveaway. Do you have a tattoo? Then the Tuesday Tattoo Contest is the event for you. Have you stopped growing your beard and mustache yet? If so, maybe you think you have what it takes to win the Beard & Mustache Contest. But that's not the only contest to bring a crowd at Sturgis. Who will win the Miss Buffalo Chip Beauty Pagent? Stop into The Chip for three rounds of this iconic pageant and wrap your pipes as you cheer on the contestants.
Build Your Endurance
Lastly, if it's been a while since you've gone for a ride that has required more than one tank, the team at Gail's Harley-Davidson suggests you build your endurance. Take some longer rides between now and Sturgis. Get back in the swing of riding for distance over several days.
Sturgis is about participating in your community and bringing people from that community together. There is a love of motorcycles and all things Harley-Davidson that we all share, but more than that, Sturgis celebrates the people the community we belong to. Both as bikers and as people. We're excited to share this community with you and are proud to be your Harley-Davidson retailer. Please say hello when you see our team at the rally and ride safely.

I ended up actually winning yesterday after a nice evening session. I focused on mostly heads up and it went well. I absolutely destroyed a guy for about an hour and then I don't know if a light bulb went off in his head, or he started really tilting or what, but he stopped doing the stupid things and started playing a lot tougher and I felt almost like he had an advantage. Pretty sure it was a form of tilt as he was down so much. When most players tilt HU they are terrible. That's pretty much the main reason to play a lot of reasonablish players...try to tilt them and if they do it turns into a landslide...but I've found there are a certain few bad players who's tilt game is much better because they 3 bet a lot more out of the big blind, they don't fold as much, they throw in a couple f-you raises and generally make your day tough.
Off to Vegas now.

9th grader Akabueze Chuburuebuka Jude(that's going to be a tough sell on a NBA jersey and a dot com address nobody will ever be able to type out) showed the crowd at the Fab Frosh Top 30 All-Star game how to respond after getting dunked on.
On a poorly guarded inbound play, AC (this is what Akabueze will now be called) was late trying to get to DJ Weaver who ended up scoring on a poster dunk over AC. DJ ran down the court with a big smile on his face before AC came down, gave DJ a high five, got serious and then scored on him. AC then got back on D and came down with a board which lead to a missed layup by his teammate and a wide open dunk attempt by the opposing team. Wide open until AC came into the picture and rejected the dunk. This again lead to another layup attempt by one of his teammates but this time AC was there to get the offensive board and score.
And that my friends is how you respond to getting dunked on.

I'm feeling fanciful and dreamy today, so why not play a fun little survival game. The ultimate question, "What ten things would you take if you knew you were headed to a deserted island for two weeks." After some thought and forward planning, here's what I came up with.
1. Lighter
It's quiet, there are no sounds around me other than the splash of the waves. Of course, I'm going to want a lighter for some amazing bonfires at night. The show for each evening will be the twinkling stars dancing within the sky, but once again I may need some warmth, so a lighter is a must.
2. Sleeping Bag
Sleeping is a must, and I don't want funny things that crawl around in the night to touch my feet so yep a sleeping bag made the list. Not one of those cheap ones either I want one of the ones that I can make a cocoon out of the ones that zip all the way around cuz I don't want any of that creepy-crawly shit on my face either!
3. Towel
Come on we are talking about a tropical paradise hopefully. So, of course, I'm going to need a towel to dry off all that ocean water with. Lazy days, slow swims, no internet, no phones, just me and nature-loving the day.
4. Sun Screen
Days in the sun sound heavenly until the first sign of a 3ers degree burn, which is why sunscreen is an absolute must-have for any adventure on an island.
5. Books
I'm not sure what titles I would grab. I would probably be okay with anything, just as long as there is something to occupy my mind with. Something that will allow me to transport into another time and place. To see others in a new light, even if they are fictional characters.
6. Solar Charger
I'm going to need this so I can boost up the radio for when I'm finished reading and am looking for a little joyful noise to keep the happy spirits alive. It's all fun and games until I want to call it quits and go home to those I love!
7. Ax
I need to make sure I can cut up some firewood for warmth and well as for those hugs ass bonfires I was talking about earlier. The other thing to probably consider is that mother nature is unpredictable. Which means the rain might come leaving me with the need for some type of shelter.
8. 2 Way Radio
I love background noise, so I just wanna listen to what's going on out there. What are other people talking about? What does there everyday look like? When I am done snooping and dancing, I am going to want to be able to call someone!
9. Food
I'm not the let us go hunt a wild boar kinda girl. Therefore boxes of oatmeal will be just fine by me.
10. Water Filtration System
Clean water is essential, and it is a desert island, after all. The sun is a nonstop hot and harsh threat to your well being. Making hydration one of the most important things to keep in mind and to make sure I have access to while out playing in the water and building sandcastles.
What would you take with you for two weeks on a deserted island? Was there anything on my list that was a definite yes, or a definite no you need this instead. Let us know @ThavinMarcob
Thavin & Marcob is a place where you are celebrated for being you!

Located in Belfast, Holly House is a detached, two-storey house with connected two-storey extension. The development provides a home to six people through supported living, having recently undergone a successful refurbishment, which focused on internal modifications.
When we acquired this property Holly House was in excellent condition, so the focus of the refurbishment was on enhancement. Working with our partners, our aim was to improve and upgrade Holly House through a dedicated program of works, including drainage, electrical works and decoration, all with the goal of meeting the needs of each resident.
Images: Holly House during refurbishment.
Refurbishing Holly House
Following a series of strip out works, new partitions were installed, windows were updated or replaced, flooring and ceilings were given an overhaul, and new internal doors were fitted. TV points were added to bedrooms and lounges, lighting was upgraded, and carpets and radiators were fitted.
To improve accessibility within Holly House, ramps were added to the kitchen, lounge and entrances. Disabled Discrimination Act (DDA) compliant handrails were also installed throughout, including a mix of timber rails, Tubular Kee Klamp rails and safety rails in bathrooms.
Safety was also improved with the introduction of a new fire detection system, which included smoke detectors to all rooms and circulation areas, with heat detectors in the kitchens.
To complete the refurbishment works at Holly House, a program of landscaping work took place, including the installation of new tarmac and the relocation of an existing timber fence. A space for staff was also created in the existing extension.
Images: Holly House following the refurbishment.
Holly House transformed
This was a successful refurbishment for Sense, and a great example of the work our teams can achieve for organisations who specialise in supporting people with complex disabilities. Holly House provides a comfortable living environment for each person in beautiful surroundings.
Holly House is close to train stations and is just a short drive away from the city.

Everyone involved in making a play is a storyteller and observer of life. Here's something from Brad Graham - an observation of inspiration.
"Karl Sine, the show Director, said something in rehearsal today that has so closely echoed some things that I've been thinking about throughout rehearsals and for the few weeks leading up to them, as I was reading the stories from the book and preparing my script and the rehearsal hall.
The people in Jake and the Kid are our people. They are our parents or grandparents, the people who invested in us and who lived harder lives than we have to so that we don't have to. They might be people who are a bit hard to take sometimes, either because they were a bit more crass than we wanted them to be or more stern or a bit more demanding that we do our best. They weren't, aren't, perfect people, but they belonged to us, so we find grace for their faults. The fact that they aren't perfect is what makes them genuine.
Somehow W.O. understood that. I suppose in spending so much time watching prairie people, listen to them, that he felt a bit of ownership, of family, towards them. It's something that good writers seem to do; watch and listen. I think the other thing he did was be honest about them. He could see the beauty & magic in two old men who just couldn't get along but who also couldn't get along without each other's friendship.
Its been so much fun watching our own little family figure out who's who so far in the rehearsal process. The things I'm enjoying most are the unique ways this team of artists have been problem solving. The ingenuity and creativity that's coming to bear every day in the shop, in the recording studio and in the rehearsal hall under the very encouraging direction of Karl Sine has been thrilling to watch and contribute to. I can't wait for people to see it and enjoy it as much as we are enjoying putting it together!"

how to use positive reinforcement training
Dog training has come a very long way over the years! As little as 5-10 years ago, we thought that appropriate training included giving strong corrections to teach compliance and respect and that we needed to "dominate" our dogs until they submitted to us. But behavioral science and learning theory have shown that training through motivation instead of intimidation is healthier for your pet. And today we understand that if your dog is behaving undesirably it is not because he doesn't respect you or that you have a "dominant" dog – it is more likely that he doesn't understand what you're trying to communicate or hasn't had enough practice performing (and being rewarded for) the right behaviors. Let me explain:
Positive reinforcement training
Positive reinforcement works by presenting a motivating (reinforcing) stimulus to the dog after the desired behavior is exhibited, making the behavior more likely to happen in the future. For example, if every time your dog sits in front of you instead of jumping up, and you give him a treat and some words of praise, the likelihood of him continuing to sit in front of you for a reward increases. This incredibly powerful concept can be harnessed for just about any behavior that you want your dog to do, from simple behaviors like not stealing food from the table or going to the bathroom in an appropriate place (outside) instead of an inappropriate place (in the house); to more complex behavior modification like your reactive dog focusing on you instead of another dog walking by, or conditioning your fearful dog to cope with a stressful situation like nail clipping.
The different types of reinforcement
All dogs' behavior can be reinforced by something, but as they are all individuals, what motivates each dog is different. What you use to reinforce behavior during training must be something that your dog wants badly enough to work for, and that is easy to deliver rapidly and repeatedly. The most common kind of reinforcement for training is treats. When training with treats, be sure that they are tiny (about the size of a pea), and very palatable so that you can give many of them without the dog becoming full or having to stop the working session to chew a large treat. While many dogs are reinforced with food, for some, it is not an option. Other reinforcement may include toys, balls, praise, and play sessions. You can get more intricate with your reinforcement by incorporating secondary reinforcers to mark a desired behavior, including clickers or simply the word 'yes'!
How to get started
It's as simple as picking a behavior that your dog already does and reinforcing for it. Let's say your dog is watching you make a sandwich in the kitchen. Instead of jumping on the counter to grab that slice of cheese you were putting on the sandwich, he sits down and looks at you politely. Mark that awesome behavior with the word 'yes', and follow it with a small treat (maybe a tiny piece of the lunch meat that was going onto the sandwich next...). After a few repetitions of being rewarded for that polite behavior, I'll bet your dog will start offering it again and again! You can mark and reward everything that your dog does that you like. And chances are your dog will think that this is an awesome game and try his hardest to get you playing the training game with him. That's the power of positive training!
Should I punish bad behavior?
Dogs get a bad rap for trying to defy or dominate their owners by doing bad things (pulling on the leash or running through doors before their owner are two problem behaviors that are often mistaken for dominance).In reality, they just haven't been practiced with enough to learn appropriate behaviors. Instead of punishing your dog for pushing into you to get through the front door on a walk, how about reinforcing a good sit-stay at the door? Sure, it will take some patience and practice, but the rewards are well worth it!

You know that look. The "I want treats" look. The nose starts twitching, and the pouty eyes begin begging. It's hard to say no to your fur baby, isn't it? It's natural to want to spoil them with yummy treats, but in the long run, it's not ideal for their health. But luckily there are healthy treats out there that you can give them on a daily basis in minimal amounts to satisfy them between meals or to reward them for being good.
While you might think to run to the local pet store to buy treats, you can actually feed your dog single ingredients of what is normally considered human food to calm their appetite. According to Modern Dog these 12 single ingredients can be used as treats:
- Steamed Cabbage – just a little at a time as to not upset their stomach.
- Frozen Sardines – a whole sardine can be fed at one time.
- Brown Rice – ideal for dogs with upset stomachs
- Fresh or Frozen Sliced Bell Peppers
- Cooked or Canned Pumpkin
- Sliced Apples
- Cooked Quinoa – also ideal for dogs with upset stomachs
- Raw or Cooked Carrots
- Raw Cauliflower or Broccoli – small portions so as not to cause gas
- Cheese – small amounts of hard cheese – soft cheeses can cause stomach aches
- Dried Apricots – small amounts
Another healthy alternative is jerky. Jerky is somewhat on the soft side so you don't have to worry about it breaking your dog's teeth like many traditional pet treats have been known to do. Try these all-natural preservative-free jerky treats available on Amazon:
Other alternative and natural treats you can buy on Amazon:
Remember, your pup might be just asking for attention when begging for a treat. You can always take them on a walk or partake in a session of playtime to distract them from food in between meals. Although healthy treats are fine for dogs, it's probably best not to give in to their begging. Instead, reward them after a walk or other activity.

Legal News
Most attorneys recognize that there is widespread economic benefit from their work, but may not have given it a lot of thought, particularly in terms of their own practice areas.
Now a new book makes the case for them.
In "Lawyers as Economic Drivers: The Business Case for Legal Services," co-editor Nelson P. Miller, the associate dean of the Thomas M. Cooley Law School Grand Rapids Campus, has asked a wide variety of contributors to give considered answers to the question of how the legal profession promotes prosperity.
Miller was joined in editing chores by Cooley colleague James Robb, associate dean of Development and Alumni Relations, and John Crane, a Cooley student who founded the non-profit Legal Entrepreneurs Alliance, which "assists lawyers and law students with practice development."
Miller was the prime mover behind pulling together attorneys from around the country to share their thoughts in the volume's 29 articles.
The initial impetus behind "Lawyers as Economic Drivers" was a negative one. Appalled by a story in the October 2010 State Bar Journal called "Too Many Hungry Crows Pecking at a Smaller Pie," Miller wrote a counterpoint article, "Legal Education as a Pie-Maker," featured in the same issue.
But as he continued to mull the issue over, Miller concluded that there are too many lawyers who themselves feel that, as the book's foreword states, "lawyers compete with one another...to divide an ever-smaller American pie, to the detriment of one another and the nation." At the same time, he saw the counter-trend: more and more lawyers understanding that what they do benefits the community, supports the rights of the individual regardless of his or her status, and adds value to the business world.
Miller decided that a book devoted to supporting the latter group was in order. It is his twelfth time serving as either author, co-author, or editor since joining Cooley Law School. His titles include "The Faithful Lawyer: Flourishing from Law Study to Practice"; "The Practice of Tort Law"; and the 2008 book he co-wrote with Amy Timmer, "Reflections of a Lawyer's Soul: The Institutional Experience of Professionalism at the Thomas M. Cooley Law School."
Most were published in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
About "Lawyers as Economic Drivers," Miller states, "Any lawyer who thinks of his or her work that way -- as a hungry scavenger fighting with other scavengers to pick over a shrinking carcass -- should not be a lawyer. We are the most productive of professionals, helping clients and communities be ever more productive. Lawyers have such good stories to tell of the value of their work that I just had to do something about it."
The contributions are delightful and widely diverse, and the contributors more than prove the legal profession's worth. Some treat the question as a simple puzzle to be solved, some focus on statistics, others include a number of personal-interest anecdotes, and still others approach the issue with incisive humor. There are a lot of lawyers jokes.
In fact, "A Good Start" by two Varnum members, Harvey Koning and Larry Murphy (who is also the managing member) derives its title from and plays its text off the punchline to a lawyer joke. (It answers the question: "What do you call 10 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?") That article mentions Varnum's MiSpringboard program with the state of Michigan, where qualified new and expanding businesses may receive free legal services from the firm -- a clear illustration of the type of economic benefit lawyers provide routinely.
Miller says one of the most obvious attorneys for him to contact seemed to be Jeff Ammon of Miller Johnson, who was the 2011 chair of the Michigan Chamber of Commerce.
Ammon's article focuses on the great service attorneys can offer when they understand their roles and what a client wants of them. For example, if a client asks him to review a lease, he asks why before starting to rack up billable hours. Sometimes, all the client needs is the answer to a single question, something that can be handled quickly over the phone.
"I think about this stuff all the time," Ammon says. "I've been a lawyer for 34 years, and I often think about what the client regards as excellent service, what will be valuable to them. Asking 'why' so I can define my role often catches clients off guard, but if you can save them money by narrowing that down, then they'll be back."
He says he welcomed the opportunity to give that some focused thought. "It was fun to write this piece because it helped me crystallize my opinions on the subject."
Lisa Hall, a civil litigation attorney in the Grand Rapids office of Plunkett Cooney, wrote a straightforward analysis of how the work of a creditors' rights attorney helps grow the economy. She lays out a number of the methods by which a company may work out its debt to move that company forward; she concludes that even if the lawyer's assessment determines pursuing collections as the preferred route, the result is taxes brought current and resources coming available to another business, which helps the economy in the long term.
Hall, an active Cooley graduate who has taught Introduction to Law for the college, says, "I'd always been aware that lawyers contribute to the economy, but hadn't really thought it through for my particular field before sitting down to write this article.
"And reading the rest of the book, it was fascinating to find out about all the other practice areas. I found everybody's perspectives really interesting."
The article "Lawyers Not Only Drive the Economy, They Build the Highway," by David Galbenowski, founder and chairman of Lumen Legal, uses an extended metaphor to indicate that the infrastructure of modern society, and its economy, relies on lawyers. In another chapter, co-editor James Robb quotes Lawrence M. Friedman as saying, "A giant economy -- an economy measured in trillions not billions ... is an economy that floats in a sea of lawyers." The book also includes research on such topics as attorney satisfaction.
Comments Miller, "The contributors' reflections frankly inspired me, and I hope that they will inspire other lawyers."

Recently, the suicides of fashion designer Kate Spade and famed chef, author, and TV personality Anthony Bourdain sent shockwaves through America and the world at large.
Outside of the collective shock, anger, and grief that ebbs and flows with news cycles, only to fade away until the next high profile event, vulnerable people from all walks of life are left wondering: How can people who seemingly have it all, throw it all away? If they can't make it, what chance do any of us have? Why should I even try anymore?
Let's all take a collective deep breath. Close your eyes. Hold it for a bit, then let go. OK. Let's talk.
First: fame and money do not magically protect people from having problems. Second: people who are depressed need medical care, just the same as if they had cancer or a heart disease.
Comedian Robin Williams. Musicians Chester Bennington and Kurt Cobain. What did they have in common besides fame and their manner of death? Their long-standing, sometimes public struggles with anxiety, depression, alcohol and drug addictions, and other conditions that impair judgment and negatively impact mental health.
In reality, people who complete suicide are most often casualties of depression or other chronic mental health disorders. Suicide is simply the method they employ to make their pain stop.
In the immediate aftermath of Spade and Bourdain's deaths, calls to suicide hotlines went up 65%, while texts to the Crisis Text Line increased by 116 percent. It's not unusual, because we see similar increases occur with every high profile suicide. These increases tell us that people are struggling. They need help and treatment, and for whatever reasons, they aren't getting it.
The lack of access to mental health care – as well as the deep roots of the stigma associated with mental health issues and care – is one of America's most shameful not-so-secret secrets.
Even worse – according to new research just released by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide rates for people aged 10 and older increased by 25% from 1999 through 2016. Twenty-five states experienced a rise in suicides by more than 30 percent. North Dakota topped the list of states with a nearly 58% increase.
Nearly 45,000 people died from suicide in 2016, and the numbers are still rising. For context: that's the equivalent of everyone who lives in Prescott plus another 2,000 or so people – the populations of Prescott and Pima combined. Gone. Every year.
Every day we ask friends, family and coworkers, 'How are you?' – yet rarely do we answer honestly rather than by rote. A quick 'I'm fine', and then we quickly move on without really sharing anything. Imagine if we were all open and honest about our struggles.
It's OK to not be OK – we need to be able to speak up – to say something when we're hurting or in danger.
We also need to take a long, hard look at access to mental health care, as well as how we treat people with mental health problems rather than simply allowing our elected officials to pay lip service, send thoughts and prayers, and then do nothing. Young, old, rich or poor, suicide does not discriminate, nor does mental illness. We need to demand action.
Two effective ways to improve access to mental health care include: 1) enforcing mental health parity laws, and 2) repealing barriers to adequate care, like the Institutions for Mental Diseases (IMD) exclusion in Medicaid.
Congress established Medicaid in 1965. Since then, the IMD exclusion has prevented Medicaid patients (ages 21-64) from accessing short-term, acute care in psychiatric hospitals or substance use disorder (SUD) treatment facilities. Considering that Medicaid is the single largest funding source for behavioral health treatment in the United States, finally repealing the IMD exclusion would potentially save thousands of lives every year.
How Bayless Integrated Health is Taking Action Now
Bayless Integrated Healthcare is working hard to eliminate the barriers to accessing mental health care and services. We've pioneered the way by incorporating the most important healthcare services under one roof: primary care and behavioral health.
While most patients have to visit multiple locations for comprehensive healthcare services, Bayless has created a new model of wellness that acknowledges that the health of our minds and bodies are equally important. That we all matter.
We will continue developing new relationships with diversified payer types including Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, long-term care, employee assistance programs, workers' compensation and commercial health plans while expanding the Bayless services, locations, and brand.

Sex linkage is the patterns of inheritance and presentation when a gene mutation (allele) is present on a sex chromosome (allosome) rather than a non-sex chromosome (autosome). They are characteristically different from the autosomal forms of dominance and recessiveness as they are different depending on the sex of the individual.
Since humans have several times as many genes on the female X chromosome than on the male Y chromosome, X-linked traits are much more common than Y-linked traits. Additionally, there are more X-linked recessive conditions than X-linked dominant, and X-linked recessive conditions affect males much more commonly, due to males only having the one X chromosome required for the condition to present.
In humans, X-linked traits are inherited from a carrier or affected mother or from an affected father. In X-linked recessive conditions, a son born to an unaffected father and a carrier mother has a 50% chance of inheriting the mother's X chromosome carrying the mutant allele and presenting with the condition. A daughter on the other hand has a 50% chance of being a carrier, however a fraction of carriers may display a milder (or even full) form of the condition due to their body's normal X-inactivation process preferably inactivating a certain parent's X chromosome (the father's in this case), a phenomenon known as skewed X-inactivation. If the condition is dominant, or if the father is also affected, the daughter has a 50% chance of being affected, with an additional 50% chance of being a carrier in the second case. A son born to an affected father and a non-carrier mother will always be unaffected due to not inheriting the father's X chromosome. A daughter on the other hand will always be a carrier (some of which may present with symptoms due to aforementioned skewed X-inactivation), unless the condition is dominant, in which case she will always be affected. There are a few Y-linked traits; these are inherited by sons from their father and are always expressed.
The incidence of X-linked recessive conditions in females is the square of that in males: for example, if 1 in 20 males in a human population are red-green color blind, then 1 in 400 females in the population are expected to be color-blind (1/20)*(1/20).
The inheritance patterns are different in animals which use different sex-determination systems. In the ZW sex-determination system used by birds, the mammalian pattern is reversed, since the male is the homogametic sex (ZZ) and the female is heterogametic (ZW).
In classical genetics, a mating experiment called a reciprocal cross is performed to test if an animal's trait is sex-linked.
|Illustration of some X-linked heredity outcomes (A) the affected father has one X-linked dominant allele, the mother is homozygous for the recessive allele: only daughters (all) will be affected. (B) the affected mother is heterozygous with one copy of the X-linked dominant allele: both daughters and sons will have 50% probability to be affected. (C) the heterozygous mother is called "carrier" because she has one copy of the recessive allele: sons will have 50% probability to be affected, 50% of unaffected daughters will become carriers like their mother.[2]
X-linked dominant inheritance
Each child of a mother affected with an X-linked dominant trait has a 50% chance of inheriting the mutation and thus being affected with the disorder. If only the father is affected, 100% of the daughters will be affected, since they inherit their father's X chromosome, and 0% of the sons will be affected, since they inherit their father's Y chromosome.
There are less X-linked dominant conditions than X-linked recessive, because dominance in X-linkage requires the condition to present with only a fraction of the gene expression of autosomal dominance, since roughly half (or as many as 90% in some cases) of a particular parent's X chromosomes are inactivated in females.
X-linked recessive inheritance
Females possessing one X-linked recessive mutation are considered carriers and will generally not manifest clinical symptoms of the disorder, although differences in X chromosome inactivation can lead to varying degrees of clinical expression in carrier females since some cells will express one X allele and some will express the other. All males possessing an X-linked recessive mutation will be affected, since males have only a single X chromosome and therefore have only one copy of X-linked genes. All offspring of a carrier female have a 50% chance of inheriting the mutation if the father does not carry the recessive allele. All female children of an affected father will be carriers (assuming the mother is not affected or a carrier), as daughters possess their father's X chromosome. If the mother is not a carrier, no male children of an affected father will be affected, as males only inherit their father's Y chromosome.

Sex-linked traits in other animals
- White eyes in Drosophila melanogaster flies—the first sex-linked gene discovered.[3]
- Fur color in domestic cats: the gene that causes orange pigment is on the X chromosome; thus a Calico or tortoiseshell cat, with both black (or gray) and orange pigment, is nearly always female.
- The first sex-linked gene ever discovered was the "lacticolor" X-linked recessive gene in the moth Abraxas grossulariata by Leonard Doncaster.[4]
Related terms
It is important to distinguish between sex-linked characters, which are controlled by genes on sex chromosomes, and two other categories.[5]
Sex-influenced traits
Sex-influenced or sex-conditioned traits are phenotypes affected by whether they appear in a male or female body.[6] Even in a homozygous dominant or recessive female the condition may not be expressed fully. Example: baldness in humans.
Sex-limited traits
These are characters only expressed in one sex. They may be caused by genes on either autosomal or sex chromosomes.[6] Examples: female sterility in Drosophila; and many polymorphic characters in insects, especially in relation to mimicry. Closely linked genes on autosomes called "supergenes" are often responsible for the latter.[7][8][9]

NBC morning host Megyn Kelly took off the gloves during her show on Monday to address a brewing controversy that took place on one of her first shows when she asked Jane Fonda about her numerous plastic surgeries. Fonda behaved as though she was stunned by the question, even though, as Kelly pointed out that she's addressed her plastic surgery on other shows, so she had no way of knowing that the topic was suddenly off limits.
Megyn Kelly's discussion about Fonda's plastic surgery took an unexpected turn when Kelly went nuclear on traitor Jane Fonda and her horrific treatment of our military and veterans who served in the Vietnam War.
"I have no regrets about that question, nor am I in the market for a lesson from Jane Fonda on what is and is not appropriate. After all, this is a woman whose name is synonymous with outrage. Look at her treatment of our military during the Vietnam War. Many of our veterans still call her 'Hanoi Jane', thanks to her radio broadcast which attempted to shame American troops.She posed on an anti-aircraft gun used to shoot down our American pilots. She called our POW's 'hypocrites' and 'liars' and referred to their torture as 'understandable'. Even she had to apologize years later for that gun picture, but not for the rest of it. By the way, she still says she is 'not proud of America'."
Watch entire Megyn Kelly rant HERE.
Conservatives who used to love Megyn Kelly (before the former Fox News host unfairly attacked candidate Donald Trump while acting as a debate moderator for the first GOP Primary debate) probably loved her hard-hitting response to "Hanoi Jane", but liberals went nuts. The Trump-hating hags of The View came completely unhinged over her "Hanoi Jane" remarks.
Trending: Video: Jill Biden's Feathers Ruffled…Refuses to Discuss Joe Biden's Gaffes 'You Can't Even Go There'
Whoopi shamed Megyn and even compared Jane Fonda's horrific treatment of our active duty Vietnam soldiers veterans to Megyn Kelly saying Santa Claus is "white" during one of her previous FOX News segments. Dingbat Joy Behar called Kelly a "bitch", but later apologized and claimed that she actually "likes" her. What? LOL!
