To the untrained eye, there is nothing delicate, intricate or strategic about a high school wrestling match.
But to the connoisseur, the flailing arms, bobbing heads, circular jousting and body slams are anything but unleashed chaos.
To the contrary, it is all part of a mental and physical chess match with an alluring aesthetic quality all its own.
"It's like dancing," said Bob Hasseman, longtime coach of the second-ranked Franklin Community High School wrestling team. "It's an art form."
A highly physical one, to be sure, but an art form, nonetheless.
Although all sports require refined skill-sets, wrestling demands of its competitors a unique set of physical and psychological tools — forged from countless hours of repetitive practice in sweltering practice rooms — in preparation for a duel that last six minutes.
Broken down into three two-minute periods, a wrestling match is — in many ways — the ultimate physical and mental challenge between two individuals. The object is simple: defeat your opponent, either by pin or by points.
Accomplishing it is anything but easy. Strength, technique, endurance and — perhaps most important of all — mental toughness, factor into a successful equation.
"It's a one-on-one battle. You're trying to impose your will on your opponent," said Center Grove coach Cale Hoover, past president of the Indiana High School Wrestling Coaches Association. "What makes it so appealing and interesting is that there are so many ways to do it.
"A lot of the sport is mental."
Franklin senior Luke Kriech agrees.
A runner-up at last year's IHSAA Individual State Meet, Kriech began wrestling at age 4 and has a keen understanding of what the grueling sport requires.
"You have to be mentally tough, and you have to have good technique," said Kriech, one of the state's top 160-pounders. "You have to be mentally prepared for your match, or you're not going to wrestle well. It's not just strength or athleticism.
"It's a combination of everything."
And that's precisely what Hasseman tries to teach: everything.
Hasseman, who has coached dozens of state qualifiers during his 28 years at Franklin, stresses all aspects of the sport, from fundamentals to conditioning to strategy to technique to the nuances of footwork and hand-placement. All of it plays a role in determining outcomes.
The strongest wrestler doesn't always win. The best-conditioned doesn't always win. The best technician doesn't always win.
The one who best combines all of the above almost always does.
"To be quite honest, a wrestler that hasn't wrestled very long and hasn't done these things over and over and over and over, there's a lot of learning that has to be done," Hasseman said. "You have to introduce that stuff as young as you can.
"The more often they do a move, the less often they have to think about it."
Franklin senior Garett Fentz, a semistate qualifier last season and one of the state's best 170-pounders, took up wrestling eight years ago. One of 12 Grizzly Cubs heading to Saturday's Mooresville Regional, he embraces the sport because of the unique individual, almost gladiator-like challenge.
"There's not really anything else to compare it to. There's no sport like it, which is kind of why I like it," Fentz said. "There's no one else you can blame it on if you lose. It's just you and someone else. It's a one-on-one kind of thing.
"It's team-based, obviously, but there's no one to blame except yourself if you lose."
That's where the mental toughness part factors in. Technique is vital. So is strength. But self-assuredness is indispensable.
"I think it's the guy who wants it most," said Hoover, who coached 2012 graduate Sean Mappes to an undefeated state championship last season at 170 pounds. "There are guys who are not real strong who win a lot. There are guys who are really strong that do win a lot. None of those things guarantees you anything, so a lot of times it's who thinks they're going to win.
"I'll take the kids that are confident in themselves and lacking some of the physical tools any day of the week than the kid who's really talented but doesn't have the inner strength. We've had some of those guys that they're just so talented but just can't get themselves over the hump. Those kids that are going to be state champions are usually the kids that put it all together."
Mappes, who is on scholarship at Tennessee-Chattanooga, was one of those kids. He finished 46-0 in becoming Johnson County's first state champion since Indian Creek's Trey Reese and Ethan Raley in 2011.
"Sean Mappes combined tremendous physical tools with tremendous mental toughness and discipline, especially toward the end of his career when he really fine-tuned his technique," Hoover said. "Then you get the kids who are capable of winning it."
Hasseman has seen the championship traits many times. His son, Bryce Hasseman, was an undefeated state champion for the Cubs in 2000. The following year, Aaron Clark was a state champion for Franklin.
Kriech, who lost 2-1 in last year's title match at 152 pounds, is confident of becoming the Cubs' next state champion.
"Probably the toughest thing is just being mentally tough, mentally preparing for my match," Kriech said. "Technique comes pretty easy for me. You have to have a counter for every move (an opponent) can make."
Those who do, and can combine it with all the sport's other physical and mental skills, are the ones who raise it to an artistic level.
"It really is an art form," Hasseman said. "When they're on their feet, it's a constant fight for position and for openings to attack the legs or the upper body. Good wrestlers, they can make you look really stupid just by how they move. They don't spend any energy. They just put you in the right position, and all of a sudden, boom, boom, you're down, boom, boom, you're down.
"I don't want to use strength to win; I want to use technique to win. You want to take that big guy and use his strength against him."

Jezreel Valley Gets It Guard Back
The first Hebrew guard returned yesterday to his post in Givat Zaid, where he keeps watch over the Jezreel Valley on horseback.
The bronze statue of Alexander Zaid, who in 1907 became one of the founders of a precursor to the Hashomer Jewish defense organization in pre-state Israel, was returned to its rightful place two months after unknown vandals knocked it to the ground.
"Alexander Zaid was always part of the valley's landscape," said Dror Ahava Romem, a member of the band Groovatron, which sang Yossi Banai and Naomi Shemer songs as the statue was being replaced. "It's the ultimate symbol of the valley."
The vandalism took place on the day the band's latest album was launched, a coincidence that made it particularly important for the band to be there when the statue was replaced, said Ahava Romem. "The restoration of the statue is the preservation of culture, without the pathos of the statue and without analyses," he said.
Other Jezreel Valley youth were also present at the reinstatement, indicating the continued relevance of Hashomer. Indeed, an organization called Hashomer Hahadash ("the new Hashomer") keeps watch over pasture lands near Tzipori.
"Zaid's heritage suits us today, too," said Tali Zaid-Raveh, a granddaughter of Alexander Zaid. "Anyone who is in the field must preserve it. That's true in the city too - people don't feel protected today."
"At the beginning I felt very bad, but it later became clear that there are plenty of good people. All segments of the public came to us, the defense minister sent a representative, and all the Tivon residents rushed over. I would have preferred that it hadn't happened, but I also see the good - there's a generation that doesn't know Zaid, and it puts him back in the discourse."

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

As Pinksual!12:28 PM
Me and big sister went to Breadtalk and bought slices of cakes before we go shopping :) It's Caketalk time!
Big sister ordered Pink Lady (which we weren't able to take a photo cause she ate it immediately) and I ordered for Mango Furomaji!
It's my second favorite next to Green Tea cake cause I love the thick cream on top. Same thing with Pink Lady too!
Since it was a shoot day and I need to feel comfy, I wore a lazy shirt with suspenders from Onion Laundry~ Pink bag and shoes were given as a gift by my sisters and it wasn't even my birthday. Sweet! :3
Pink is my favorite color, that I didn't notice I was already wearing pink from head to toe.
It's so comfy to wear~ I love the pink patent leather material and its lightweight wedges that made me look two inches taller.
So what do you think of my lazy outfit post?
2 name tags
fantastic sneakers!ReplyDelete

Looks like there will be a ceiling for a while. And that ceiling is probably $32 until further notice. The traders will trade this thing between $32-$30 until the next earning announcement. This stock might be useless to buyers and holders.

It's probably bigger than you realize…
Steve Jobs said it so well:
"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle."
I empower entrepreneurs and independent professionals to gain the energy, clarity and confidence to do their best work, have more fun and achieve bigger, more satisfying results.
"Until I started working with Richard, my business was a lot of hard work. And nights of no going to sleep. Richard's coaching has enabled me to grow my business way faster than I would have thought possible. I am having more and more fun and the money flows and clients keep on growing."
~ Sandy Lévèque, Zumba Instructor Nice, France
If you're ready to consistently feel greater confidence, clarity and energy to take action on optimal strategies that get you bigger results, I'll help you do that.
For over 30 years, I've trained in and taught powerful personal development and business success strategies. I empower entrepreneurs to overcome fear and self-doubt. They discover how to attract more clients, achieve soul satisfying financial freedom and create a better world.
I'll share with you the best strategies to empower your mindset and focus increased energy and attention to do great work and make great money sharing your unique gifts working with people who you care about.
My clients learn to use powerful effective online and offline sales and marketing strategies. They're able to be more confident and improve their communication skills so they build a steady flow of clients.
Of course, your results are up to you. You have to commit to your success and invest the money, time and effort to make it happen.
Learn how to open up your mind and heart so you can get high performance results from the business strategies and systems that are right for you. My clients consistently report they have greater clarity, energy and confidence that expands their life and business faster and easier.
Before coaching with me, a client was struggling to study for his SEC exam. He had failed once and was filled with fear and self-doubt. After just two sessions he felt much more focused and confident. He was able to pass the test and is now a successful venture capitalist in Silicon Valley.
When you're clear headed and confident, you're much more effective. You can streamline your business and enjoy your life a lot more.
Chances are though, that you're too busy working day to day. You're distracted by details and can't advantage of opportunities.
Your life doesn't have to be that way.
There are creative ways you can turn your ideas and talent into a lot more money and not have to work so hard.
But if you're like many stressed out and overworked business owners, you probably don't even see the opportunities. Or if you do, you don't have the energy and clarity to make them work for you.
"I was feeling really 'stuck' with my business. Richard helped me release issues which were causing me to procrastinate. He also helped with very practical marketing strategies. I feel so much lighter and freer and ready to take my sales to the next level. I highly recommend his services." Pippa Anais Gaubert Austin, Texas
"With Rich's energy work and the tools that he gave me, amazing changes were able to happen for me. My businesses are expanding faster, with awesome new people coming into my life, and I am having so much fun creating these changes!" Monica Smith Pleasant Hill, California

Imparting Islamic Values
The best way of teaching the youngsters how Islam is a ''way of life'' rather than a plain old religion is to show them how to apply Islam in every practical aspect of their life, and what better way to do it than for the adults of our communities to physically demonstrate this by setting good examples for the next generation.
''When you die, you leave behind three things in this world which are of benefit to you: your charity, your knowledge and your children."
When it comes to Muslim children today, we see a variety of different methods by which our children obtain Islamic knowledge and learn about religion. With each different method of Islamic teachings which parents and communities implement, we see various outcomes which reflect how much of the education the children actually retain and the extent to which they end up implementing and practicing religion to their daily lives.
In the West, we are grateful to see an increasing number of weekend Islamic schools which teach a variety of pertinent topics such as Qur'an, Islamic history, jurisprudence, and ethics. However, providing our young ones with content from the pre-existing syllabi (such as those commonly obtained from popular sources like madressa.net) is one thing, yet providing children and the youth with opportunities to learn how to apply the theory on a more practical level is much more essential, especially since today's generation is considered more ''hands-on''.
The best way of teaching the youngsters how Islam is a ''way of life'' rather than a plain old religion is to show them how to apply Islam in every practical aspect of their life, and what better way to do it than for the adults of our communities to physically demonstrate this by setting good examples for the next generation. However, when it comes to the issue of who is responsible for monitoring and making sure that Islamic teachings are being applied by children to their daily life, it is a common misconception that is either entirely the Sunday school's duty or entirely the parents' duty. Ideally, as most children in the West are exposed to both forms of education, the application of Islamic values and principles should be maintained at both levels.
The Islamic school staff must maintain appropriate Islamic etiquette. It is vital to have teachers who are practicing Muslims, so that what they teach appears truthful and is appealing to the youngest and purest of society's members. For example, if a teacher is explaining the importance of men keeping beards, logic would suggest that this idea would work much better if the teacher himself has a beard.
It is difficult for a child to understand the concept of Hijab and Lady Zainab's (peace be upon her) sacrifice if a female teacher or family member is not practicing Hijab. Similarly, a situation whereby a child is taught to not listen to music yet is exposed to such things at home can create unnecessary confusions and contradictions that they certainly do not need at such an age! Such clashes between what is Islamically correct and what the children experience at home almost always results in major flaws in their religious practice, which not only stay with them for the rest of their lives but are unfortunately passed on to their future generations too.
Emphasizing the importance of knowledge and children, Imam Ali (peace be upon him) has said: "Gaining knowledge in one's youth is like imprinting something on a rock [it will always remain]."
It is natural for parents to expect the best for their children in every way. However, if parents believe that their child's Islamic school has shortcomings or is inadequate in any way (and that those ''rocks'' that our Imam refers to are not being imprinted on quite as well as we would like), rather than taking the easy option and blaming the community for its inability to singlehandedly churn out good Muslim children, the parents and families of the youth should take a proactive role in reinforcing religious theory.
The fundamentals of our religion, such as offering prayers at the correct time, reciting the Holy Qur'an out loud on a daily basis, and maintaining proper Hijab and conduct with non-mahrams should all be practiced at home in order for the child's vision of Islam to meet eye-to-eye with what is being taught at Sunday school, and vice versa.
This is the tender age at which our children learn the importance of Islam. Our future generations deserve to not just be restricted to only a few hours of Islamic education on the weekend; rather, they deserve to be taught and shown how to practice Islam (while avoiding as much non-Islamic hindrance as possible) not only every day but every minute of their lives. Unless both the community and parents make a combined effort towards reevaluating and perfecting our own religious practices in order to provide better Islamic environments and role models for our youth, and hence for the strengthening of the Muslim Ummah of tomorrow, the future of Islam in the West may be at risk of deteriorating altogether.

I think in order for practical Islamic education at home or at school to be of any benefit, it must be accompanied with spiritual training. That is, we need to understand the why's to some extent -why do we believe in God, what is the evidence for that, what do we mean by God's Mercy and what is the evidence for that - if people have a relationship and reverence of the Creator and can dua with real feeling, for example, this goes a long way to support salat, hijab, etc. A person should WANT to pray, wear hijab, etc., because he/she loves God and has gained knowledge to understand how these acts reflect that love.
Both you are entirely correct. To teach Islam like an academic subject, so that the student obtains a grasp of Islamic doctrine, history, fiqh, etc. is only one thing. Our larger goal and much more important goal is to ensure that the student translates that knowledge into action, or to put it in other words, to impart Islamic values. As the author states this is best done when the teacher himself is an educated, practicing, well-mannered Muslim who cares about the growth of his students. Moreover, in order to impart Islamic values he needs to get to know his students in a sense -- he needs to spend time with them and have fun with them outside of class. Once this informal friendship between teacher and student develops, the student begins to look up to the teacher as a role model or older brother, and the imparting of Islamic values begins. :-)

Barbara Zellner
Barb was born in Eau Claire, Wisconsin on March 14, 1934 to Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell (Helen Walrath) Ewald. Barb graduated with the Class of '52 from Eagle River High School. Over the years she organized many of her class reunions.
On June 27, 1953 Barb married LeRoy (Bud) Zellner in the Community Bible Church in Eagle River. They were happily joined in marriage for 48 years. Bud passed away on July 29, 2001.
Barb was preceded in death by her parents and an infant brother, Lawrence Ewald. She is survived by her beloved brother and sister-in-law Barry and Joan Ewald, many nieces, nephews and friends. She is also survived by her brother-in-law Joseph (Maryann) Zellner and sisters-in-law Jean Zellner, Patricia Pride, and Luellen (Lolly) (Ralph) Kutcher. Barb was dearly loved by her most special friend Mary Marsh-Schilling, her beloved puppy Pepé and cats Kaedee and Chester. She was blessed with many beautiful memories from all of her cats - especially Jetta.
While working in Milwaukee, Bud and Barb lived for every chance to race up north to go snowmobiling. After Barb retired from Liturgical Publications in West Allis, they made the move north - a dream come true - finally back home.
Barb was a member of the Sayner-Star Lake Lioness Club for 22 years holding the positions of president and devoted secretary for many, many years. She was also a member of the Plum Lake Woman's Club. Barb cherished monthly luncheons with her fellow classmates.
Barb enjoyed politics, keeping up with current events, and supporting the Republican Party. She liked constructive things - not destructive things and to be given the opportunity to build a strong character in an individual. She tackled every challenge God gave her with dignity - oh! - how she will be missed.
Internment will take place in Eagle River Cemetery in the spring.

Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

my girlfriend does any crazy thing i ask her to do... or anything she thinks of ;)
You know, this is why I like Japanese girls so much... they do the sickest, grossest, most vile and disgusting things (in porn or yes, with your actual girlfriend), and they're hot. Over in North America, sure you can see average porn stars doing gross stuff... but you can't usually see the super hot ones doing the same thing. You know? When was the last time you saw someone like Jenna Jameson licking a man's ass for an hour? Or drinking the collected ejaculate of 50 men? Never! But in Japan.... it's mandatory!

Oklahoma State football: Cowboys fans band together for their team, against Sports Illustrated
STILLWATER — K.C. Andrews and his buddies kept receiving cheers and applause and cries of approval for their t-shirts Saturday night.
On the front: "Allegedly."
On the back: "SI Sucks."
Consider it the sentiment of the week around Stillwater and wherever Oklahoma State fans love their Cowboys, in the wake of Sports Illustrated's ongoing five-part unflattering exposé of the program.
The game, OSU's first at home this season, was over early and offered no drama in a 59-3 rout.
Still, it was cathartic for the fans, who filed in to form the largest crowd in Boone Pickens Stadium history at 59,061.
The t-shirts were cathartic, too.
As much as Jeremy Smith or Blake Jackson or any number of Cowboys on the defense Saturday night, Andrews may have been Mr. Popularity. The owner of the Cowboy Travel Plaza at the intersection of I-35 and Highway 51, Andrews hatched an idea earlier in the week to produce some t-shirts reflecting the thoughts of most OSU supporters.
He had 30 printed, which were handed out to everyone at his tailgate.
And they became the talk of the night wherever he and his pals strode.
"Oh my gosh, I can't even explain it," Andrews said. "There's so many positive comments coming from people. All day long, we were getting comments. There were people coming up, 'Man, let me get a picture of that shirt, it's awesome.'
"We took group pictures with the shirts. Even walking down the stands coming out, I heard three or four people making comments, 'Hey, I love your shirt!' A lot of positive feedback."
Said Danny Stunkard, who was also sporting one of the shirts: "I've had 150 comments on the shirts. We've been taking pictures. It's been a pretty good scene."
And it was quite a scene before, during and after the game.
Mike Gundy said it started with The Walk, where a massive gathering swelled to escort the Cowboys into Boone Pickens Stadium.
"It would be as competitive and as good a walk as we've ever had," Gundy said. "There was just a lot of people. I think they have a lot of pride and they wanted to come out and show that pride.
"The feeling you got on campus, six, eight, 10 hours before kickoff. And then tonight."
Pat Innis and her husband arrived early from Tulsa to show their support.
"We still bleed orange," she said. "And we believe in these boys. And we believe in these coaches. You can't talk about something that happened 10 years ago.
"We came up here early just to watch them walk in and give them our support."
The support started earlier in the week with former players speaking out against what SI had been writing. Saturday offered OSU's fans their first real opportunity to publicly voice their support.
"It's been a little bit disappointing," Edmond's Ken Lake said of the week that was. "But it's also been kind of rewarding, because the stuff I hear and read I know is based on half-truths, innuendos and disgruntled football players. The people I know in the program, I respect, and I feel like they're running a pretty good program.
"You could see, it was a pretty good crowd here tonight. Lamar, you probably wouldn't see that big of a crowd. So it was different. And I was proud to show up, wearing my orange for the university."
Andrews wore his own shirt.
"When the articles first came out, they had the words 'allegedly' written all over them," he said. "I don't know, the word just kind of stuck in my head. And I thought it'd be cool to have some shirts printed up.
"If I would have had a hundred, I could have sold 100 of them."

This is a continuation-in-part of application of Ser. No. 727,205 filed Jul. 9, 1991, now abandoned.
The present invention relates to a novel innersole for footwear useful for supporting and cushioning feet. This application is filed concurrently with co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 727,206 entitled, "Method for Preparing Molded Innersoles Having a Non-Slip Surface", filed Jul. 9, 1991 and with our design U.S. patent application Ser. No. 737,535 entitled, "INNERSOLE", filed on Jul. 9, 1991, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Innersoles, especially those containing arch supports, have been used historically to relieve foot and leg discomfort due to flat or low arches, high arches, over-pronation, over-supination, valgus, varus, and a variety of other conditions. The function of the longitudinal arch is to provide a flexible, shock absorption mechanism for the body while standing, walking, running, etc. When this mechanism is not functioning properly, several disorders can develop.
Pronation is the tendency for the longitundinal arch to depress and roll inward. This action is usually accompanied with a rolling inward and downward of the medial side of the foot and ankle, an outward rotation of the heel and an outswing of the forefoot. Some people with flat or low arches experience excessive pronation, also known as overpronation. Discomfort in the arch of the foot is common in persons with over pronation because excessive repetitive stress is placed on joints and ligaments in the midpart and hind-part of the foot. Leg fatigue and discomfort is also common because there is an overuse of leg muscles which resist the repetitive depression of the arch. In some instances, arch supports are prescribed after bunion surgery because overpronation can lead to a recurrence of bunion deformities. These devices typically help by realigning the foot to achieve a neutral positioning of the bone structures. Some of these devices employ subtle or passive methods of cushioning to achieve a comforting effect while others use rigid or force-fit methods of realigning the foot. Many innersoles require fitting to a shoe size that is larger than the user would typically wear. This indicates that most innersoles are too bulky to provide a comfortable, non-restrictive fit in properly sized shoes when both the foot and the arch support occupy the same space. Others are trimmed to fit the shoe. Other devices are constructed with laminated foams and then thermoformed or compression molded to achieve a contoured effect. Laminated articles have the potential for delaminating over time, with use. These devices typically blend a heel cup with the arch cushion to stabilize the rear foot in addition to supporting the longitudinal arch. Full length shoe inserts, which utilize polyurethane foam molding technology, are shaped similarly to the formed foam devices in that a contoured heel cup and blended arch cushion are predominant structures in the device. Most of these devices employ some type of topcover for visual and performance reasons. They also tend to crowd the foot due to the toe area having a full thickness of cushioning material as well as an over cushioning of the heel which tends to raise the ankle, thereby losing the support of the shoe itself.
By way of example, U.S Pat. No. 4,823,420 discloses a contour molded insole for footwear including an insole blank shaped to include an upwardly concave surface portion which, under pressure, is caused to invert to form a convex surface. U.S. Pat. No. 4,756,096 discloses a custom molded insole for supporting the foot in a ski boot made of a thin, formed blank of semi-rigid, bendable resilient material molded to the contour of the plantar surface/sole of a human foot, wherein the blank extends along the full length and width of the foot. U.S. Pat. No. 4,627,177 discloses a footwear insole member made of a first portion in which the area of the upper surface approximately underlies the area of the longitudinal arch and a second portion the area of the upper surface of which underlies at least about 10% of the medial area of the heel and from 0 to about 50% of the lateral area of the heel. U.S. Pat. No. 4,619,056 discloses an insole with integrally molded ridges to provided enhanced support for the foot in the region of the arch. U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,627,178 and 4,694,589 disclose an elastomeric shoe innersole made of a molded, elastomeric polyurethane foam material of low compression set, the heel and arch sections directly bonded in the molding process to a full-sole material composed either of foam or a solid, flexible sheet material. U.S. Pat. No. 4,674,204 discloses a shock absorbing innersole similar to that of U.S. Pat. No. 4,694,589, and also containing a solid, shock-absorbing heel insert. U.S. Pat. No. 4,586,273 discloses a shoe insert for reducing impact to the foot made of a base layer of a relatively resilient material, a foam layer disposed over the base layer and the means for integrally forming the base layer, foam layer and fabric into a sheet tri-laminate. U.S. Pat. No. 4,580,356 discloses a removable insole for shoes, the original profile of which is flat or curved, and which due to different grooves, gradually becomes permanently deformed on contact with the foot and finally adopts the profile thereof. U.S. Pat. No. 4,513,518 discloses an inner sole with a cushioning layer of polyurethane foam, with compression set less than 10%, laminated to a thinner layer of thermoformable polyethylene foam, which serves primarily as a vehicle for shaping the polyurethane. U.S. Pat. No. 4,338,734 discloses a universal orthotic which includes a monolithic shell, which may include a heel post, a navicular flange and a metatarsal raise, all formed monolithically to facilitate its manufacture. U.S. Pat. No. 2,034,563 discloses a longitudinal arch supporting shoe element composed of an inner sole split from its heel end into its ball portion, the split portion includes a relatively thick bottom layer and a thinner top layer. U.S. Pat. No. 2,965,984 discloses an arch supporting insole having a top sheet of plastic film, a thicker sheet of plastic foam beneath the top sheet, a partial bottom sheet of plastic film beneath the foam sheet, a heat seal seam joining all of the sheets and defining the bounding edge of the insole. U.S. Pat. No. 2,803,895 discloses a protective innersole made of a plurality of stacked laminates including a top laminate, a bottom laminate, each of said laminates having a pair of ends and an area substantially coextensive with the sole. U.S. Pat. No. 1,466,386 discloses a foot support adapted to be worn inside a boot or shoe, an insole, an uncovered semi-circular pad of sponge rubber cemented to the underface of the insole at the longitudinal arch, and an attaching strip secured to the pad and insole for holding the pad more firmly in position. Most of these innersoles are too bulky to fit within a normal shoe, causing the foot to be overly restricted within the shoe.
There is a need to provide a thin, removable, non-slip innersole that provides arch support through material resilience and yet has structural resilience to allow for a comfortable fit for both the feet and the innersole in a shoe. There is also a need to provide a three dimensionally contoured, wholly molded innersole which can provide cushioning and/or support and which takes up less space in the shoe than other known innersole and which will allow the foot to move normally within the shoe. It would also be desirable to provide an innersole which is durable, i.e. retains its original shape, resiliency, and remain as one piece. It would also be desirable to provide a lightweight, flexible innersole that can fit most footwear styles, with little or no trimming needed.
In its first and broadest embodiment, the present invention is a removable, three quarter length, innersole for an article of footwear, adapted to provide cushioning and/or support to a foot, comprising:
a forward toe portion having a radius edge,
a rear heel portion having a radius edge and
an intermediate arch cushion portion between said toe and heel portions, wherein said forward toe portion, said rear heel portion and said intermediate arch cushion portion are one-piece; said innersole being resilient and being defined by:
a1) a first flat bottom surface,
a2) a second upper surface generally convex-shaped to define the contour of the intermediate arch portion of said innersole, and
a3) a third concave-shaped surface extending from said bottom surface to said upper surface to define with said upper surface a projection extending upwardly from said bottom surface and outwardly at a distance about equal to or greater than the tangent of said toe radius edge and said heel radius edge, said projection defining a space beneath said third surface;
said innersole permitting said projection to resiliently deform into the space defined by said projection upon application of a load to said innersole.
In a second embodiment, the resilient innersole of the first embodiment further comprises a topcover layer bonded to the upper surface of said resilient innersole.
In a third embodiment, the innersole of the first embodiment further comprises a bottom layer bonded to said first flat bottom surface of said resilient innersole. More preferably, the bottom layer is bonded to said first flat bottom surface and to said third surface.
In a fourth embodiment, the present invention is a removable, three quarter length innersole for an article of footwear, adapted to provide cushioning and/or support to a foot, comprising:
a forward toe portion,
a rear heel portion and
an intermediate arch portion between said toe and heel portions;
said innersole further comprising an upper topcover layer, a middle resilient layer and bottom layer,
a) said middle resilient layer is one-piece and being defined by:
a1) a first flat bottom surface,
a2) a second upper surface generally convex-shaped to define the contour of the intermediate arch portion of said innersole, and
a3) a third concave-shaped surface extending from said bottom surface to said upper surface to define with said upper surface a projection extending upwardly from said bottom surface and outwardly at a distance about equal to or greater than the tangent of said toe radius edge and said heel radius edge, said projection defining a space beneath said third surface;
b) said bottom layer and said topcover layer being bonded to the upper and bottom surface, respectively, of said middle resilient layer;
said innersole permitting said projection to resiliently deform into the space defined by said projection upon application of a load to said innersole.
The present innersole is designed to fit the general shape of the foot's plantar surface, medially, along the longitudinal arch, while cushioning the heel and metatarsals. Cushioning and/or support is provided to the arch area by the specially designed arch portion in conjunction with the resiliency of the materials employed.
In the fourth and most preferred embodiment, the present innersole contains three layers which are integrally molded into a single article. In the fourth embodiment, the middle resilient layer generally is the same article as the innersole of the first embodiment. Preferably, the middle resilient layer is a polyurethane foam and the topcover layer is a polyurethane foam sheet. Also preferred is that the bottom layer functions by resisting slippage within the footwear, i.e. is a non-slip surface or coating. Also preferred is that the toe portion is beveled or tapered and the heel portion is generally flat.
One advantage of the present invention is that it can provide a lightweight, breathable innersole that can help to reduce over-pronation, a physical affliction connected to many common foot, ankle, lower-leg and knee problems.
A second advantage is that the present innersole can relieve the discomfort associated with over-supinated feet, since the innersole can relieve some of the load on the high arch and also cushion the high pressure areas of the heel and metatarsals.
A third advantage is that the present innersole can be readily used to support and cushion normal feet in footwear that have little or no arch support.
A fourth advantage is that the present innersole can be designed to fit most footwear styles for men, women and children.
A fifth advantage of the present innersole is that since it is slimmer and less bulkier than other known innersoles having arch supports. The present innersole can be comfortably worn by the user with the user's normal size footwear, without the need to resort to larger footwear sizes.
A sixth advantage is that the present innersole can be designed so that trimming of the innersole to fit the user's footwear is unnecessary.

In the following discussions, the preparative teachings of any patents disclosed herein are incorporated herein by reference.
In the present innersole, three quarter length refers to the heel-to-ball length.
The topcover employed in the present innersole can be prepared from, but not limited to, materials, such as leather, leatherboard, expanded vinyl foam, flocked vinyl film, coagulated polyurethane, latex foam on scrim, supported polyurethane foam, laminated polyurethane film or in-mold coatings such as polyurethanes, styrene-butadiene-rubber, acrylonitrile-butadiene, acrylonitrile terpolymers and copolymers, vinyls, or other acrylics, as integral topcovers. Desirable characteristics of the topcover include good durability, stability and visual appearance. Also desired is that the topcover material have good flexibility, as indicated by a low modulus, in order to be easily moldable. The bonding surface of the topcover must provide an appropriate texture in order to achieve a suitable mechanical bond to the middle resilient layer. A preferred topcover material is a mechanically frothed polyurethane sheet, which can be made on an embossed release liner. The topcover material is typically coated on both sides with a clear, ultraviolet (UV) cured, cross-linked acrylic coating to prevent blocking, i.e. sticking to itself in rolled form.
The middle resilient layer of the present innersole (i.e. same as the resilient innersole of the first embodiment) can be prepared from any suitable foam, such as cross-linked polyethylene, ethylenevinyl acetate, or polyvinyl chloride, silicone foams and gels, latex foams, aliphatic urethanes, most preferably polyurethane foams such as the elastomeric polyurethanes. Such foams can be blown with freon, water, methylene chloride or other gas producing agents, as well as by mechanically frothing to prepare the resilient core. Such foams advantageously can be molded into the desired resilient core. For example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,489,594, 4,722,946 and 4,476,258 describe suitable energy absorbing polyurethane compositions. A preferred resilient polyurethane can be prepared from diisocyanate prepolymer, polyol, catalyst and stabilizers which provide a polyether polyurethane foam of the desired physical attributes. Suitable diisocyanate prepolymer and polyol components include diphenylmethane diisocyanate prepolymer XAS 10971.02 and polyether polyol/fluorocarbon blend XUS 18016.00, both available from the Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Mich.; Polymeric MDI M-10 (CAS 9016-87-9) and Polymeric MDI MM-103 (CAS 25686-28-6), both available from BASF, Parsippany, N.J.; Pluracol 945 (CAS 9082-00-2) and Pluracol 1003, both available from BASF, Parsippany, N.J.; Multrinol 9200, available from Mobay, Pittsburgh, Pa.; and Niax 34-28, available from Union Carbide, Danbury, Conn. Suitable catalysts include Dabco 33-LV(CAS 280-57-9,2526-71-8), Dabco X543 (CAS Trade Secret), Dabco T-12 (CAS 77-58-7), and Dabco TAC (CAS 107-21-1) all obtainable from Air Products Inc., Allentown, Pa. or Fomrez UL-38, a stannous octoid, from the Witco Chemical Co., New York, N.Y. Suitable stabilizers include Tinuvin 765 (CAS 41556-26-7), Tinuvin 328 (CAS 25973-55-1), Tinuvin 213 (CAS 104810-48-2), Irganox 1010 (CAS 6683-19-8), Irganox 245 (CAS 36443-68-2), all available from the Ciba Geigy Corporation, Greensboro, N.C., or Givsorb UV-1 (CAS 057834-33-0) and Givsorb UV-2 (CAS 065816-20-8) from Givaudan Corporation, Clifton, N.J. An important feature of the middle resilient layer is that it is made of one-piece. "One piece" means that the middle resilient layer is of unitary construction, rather than of laminate construction. Further, the middle resilient layer is the portion of the innersole which provides cushioning and/or support to a foot.
The bottom of the present innersole can be prepared from any suitable material, including those described before for the topcover and middle resilient layer. Adhesives, materials having a high coefficient of friction, or the bottom layer, can provide non-slip features or semi-permanent attachment of the device in the shoe. These methods can be used over part of the innersole, such as the flat bottom surface, or over all of the innersole flat bottom surface and the third concave-shaped surface of the arch cushion. Preferably the bottom is a non-slip, acrylic coating described in "Method for Preparing Molded Innersoles Having a Non-Slip Surface," supra, whose preparative teachings are incorporated herein by reference. The non-slip coating can be preapplied to a bottom mold cavity prior to adding a polyurethane mixture. The coating molds integrally to the resultant polyurethane foam layer.
The table below summarizes characteristics of a range of materials which can be employed in the innersole of the present invention. One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the characteristics of the innersole can vary from portion to portion and within each layer. For example, within the heel portion, toe portion and intermediate arch portion the thickness, hardness, density, etc. of each layer can vary within the layer.

The innersole of the present invention can be prepared by conventional methods such as heat sealing, ultrasonic sealing, radiofrequency sealing, lamination, thermoforming, reaction injection molding, and compression molding and, if necessary, followed by secondary die-cutting or in-mold die cutting. Representative methods are taught, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,489,594; 3,530,489 4,257,176; 4,185,402; 4,586,273, in the Handbook of Plastics, Herber R. Simonds and Carleton Ellis, 1943, New York, N.Y., Reaction Injection Molding Machinery and Processes, F. Melvin Sweeney, 1987, New York, N.Y., and Flexible Polyurethane Foams, George Woods, 1982, New Jersey, whose preparative teachings are incorporated herein by reference. Preferably, the innersole is prepared by a foam reaction molding process such as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,694,589.
FIG. 1 shows that right innersole 2 has a front view, a bottom view, a right side view, a left side view, a rear view, a top view and a bottom view.
In FIG. 1A, innersole 2 is comprised of a forward toe portion 4, intermediate arch cushion portion 8 and rear heel portion 6. Forward toe portion 4 works to support the metatarsals. Rear heel portion 6 works to support the calcaneus. Intermediate arch portion 8 is centered on the cuneiform bone to allow for natural fitting of the cushion to the foot, and works to support the, talus and navicular bones, as well as their associated joints. Forward toe portion 4 has a radius edge 5 and rear heel portion 6 has a radius edge 7.
In FIG. 1B, tangent 17 connects radius edges 5 and 7.
In FIG. 2 is shown a cross section for a relatively flat forward toe or rear heel portion of innersole 2, comprised of an upper topcover layer 10, a one-piece middle resilient layer 12 and a bottom layer 14, molded integrally.
FIG. 3 shows a foot being placed on innersole 2 having a taper 3 of the three layers toward forward toe portion 4. Taper 3 and forward toe portion 4 approximately underlie the ball of the foot and serve to cushion the metatarsals as they taper off to a thin edge. The three-quarter length and tapered toe portion 4 allow for maximum toe room in the shoe. Sufficient stability to the heel can be provided by the shoe itself and sufficient layer thicknesses can be provided to the rear heel portion 6 to cushion the heel of the foot. Optionally, though less preferably, rear heel portion 6 can be contoured to form a heel cup.
FIG. 4A shows a front end perspective of a three layer right innersole in which upper topcover layer 10 is bonded to the second upper surface 18 of one-piece middle resilient layer 12, and bottom layer 14 is bonded to bottom surface 16 (not visible) of middle resilient layer 18.
FIG. 4B shows a rear bottom perspective of a three layer left innersole in which upper topcover layer 10 is bonded to the second upper surface 18 (not shown) of one-piece middle resilient layer 12, and bottom layer 14 is bonded to lower surfaces 16 and 20 of middle resilient layer 12.
FIG. 5A shows a cross-section of shoe 21 without a load containing three-layered innersole 2, with one-piece middle resilient layer 12 bonded to topcover 10 and bottom layer 14. Concave-shaped third surface 20 extends from bottom surface 16 to upper surface 18. Upper surface 18 includes the convex-shaped surface of projection 22. Projection 22 extends upwardly from bottom surface 16 and outwardly. Projection 22 also defines a space 24 beneath concave-shaped third surface 20. Space 24 allows innersole 2 to adjust to the foot during use, by compressing any extra cushioning into this space. Where a foam is used for one-piece resilient layer 12, support is achieved from the compression resistance of the foam as well as by ridge 19 formed at the junction of third surface 20 and bottom surface 16, thus providing lengthwise rigidity during bending and flexing, while walking. Ridge 19 can also serve as an anchorpoint for projection 22, thus restraining that portion from stretching away from bottom surface 16 and preventing excessive flattening of projection 22. Topcover 10 can also interact with the foam around the anchored area to limit stretching of projection 22 during walking. The combined operation of the compression resistance of the foam together with the spring-like action of projection 22 helps to support the arch area.
In FIG. 5B, application of load 26 to innersole 2 causes projection 22 to resiliently deform into space 24 in FIG. 5A. Alternatively, projection 22 could deform partially into space 24.
The following example illustrates the present invention and the manner by which it can be practiced, but as such, should not be construed as limitations upon the overall scope of the same.
A pre-warmed two-part mold is used having a top cavity and a bottom cavity. A topcover of mechanically frothed, polyurethane foam is attached to the top cavity. The bottom cavity, having a permanent release coating, is spray coated with a non-slip acrylic coating. After the coating has dried, polyurethane is poured into the bottom cavity and the mold is closed. The foam expands and the part is cured. The part is demolded and die-cut, yielding a molded innersole having three layers that are integrally bound into one article.

Toon Zelda 1000 Watchers by akurikoWatch
©2011-2016 akuriko
Wow, seems like yesterday I'd just uploaded a photo for 500 watchers! Once again, thanks to all my new and old watchers for all the support! ^w^ I will continue doing my best to create quality costumes and pieces~ ^ ^/""" <3

I would fuck your brains right out.
I want you!
one of my favorite Zeldas so far
i think i just died this is so amazing aahahahaha
hey I was wondering where'd u get ur ears?
Your wig for this costume looks amazing! May I ask where you got it?
She makes all her cosplays herself!
I love the bright colors in this shot.
who'd of known Zelda could be kinda hot? ;D lol
Is this art? or costume? Sorry it looks Kinda arty LOL
She looks beautiful
Gorgeous. If you don't mind me asking, how did you make the chest piece? The headdress is the last bit of my OoT!Zelda that I need to finish up, but I don't know how to go about making it...
Thanks! ^ ^ My chest piece is made from a combination of thick craft foam and model magic sealed, painted, and coated with envirotex lite epoxy resin. I made my Toon Zelda crown from Sculpey, and I would definitely recommend using it for your crown, but you have to sand it for it to look good. you can find sanding tips on the Sculpey website.
You look like a Barbie doll!! Very pretty!! ^ ^
how did you make the pink necklace jewels? are they model magic? or a really awesome light bulb or something? haha
The necklace beads are actually two ping pong balls and a christmas ornament painted pink. ^ ^
their ping pong balls. quite resourceful isnt it?
1000 watchers. I can see why
And this is the reason why I keep outstanding stuff in my inbox for so long. ^^
very beautiful
AWESOME!! looks incredible!
I love the hair so beautiful <3
and the make up is so flawless @__@ how do you get it like that??
You are my favourite Zelda cosplayer <3

You are my favourite Zelda cosplayer <3
Thank you! ^ ^ Haha, years of practice I suppose. XD; And I'm flattered to be your favorite. :3 <3
You're simply beutiful! *w*
O my god so pretty...
do you use the same type of ears 4 every zelda cosplay? or do u allways use something different?
So far it's been the same pair. I'm hoping to learn to make my own someday that will be more accurate.
just like pikminlink. i couldnt believe she makes her own ears. shes definately ranked a talented cosplayer clearly
the ears are pretty accurate for most of your cosplays. i think if i did a link to the past zelda, i would need bigger ears

I just think that it's the one thing holding my costumes back from being more accurate.
good luck on that
very cool!
thats soo beautiful
This is a beautiful shot. I really love the colors in this picture. You are also very beautiful too.

Debbie's Profile
A life-long knitter who learned to spin 2 years ago. Owner of 2 alpacas. Learned to make wire wrapped and chain maille jewelry this year and I am hooked. I love traditions styles of the 19th and early 20th centuries. I love lace and lacey designs. Love to garden, especially flowers. I can tomatoes and make jams. . Inspired by nature and color.
Happy customers are my goal. I take my time making jewelry and spinning yarn, so I don't have a lot of inventory.
I am a counselor by education, but now I edit dissertations and theses. I get to read so many interesting topics.
