Beer is big in Philly right now, but it's not as big as it once was. "I drink no cider," John Adams wrote to his wife Abigail back in Boston during the run-up to the Revolution, "but feast on Philadelphia beer." Rich Wagner's 2012 book Philadelphia Beer: A Heady History of Brewing in the Cradle of Liberty overflows with tales of the city's brewers, breweries and drinkers. Beer Week kicks off this week. Here, in celebration, are a few of the facts Wagner's book contains. Read more »

The Yoga and Movement Sanctuary: New Yoga Studio Opening in Brewerytown
The first time I took a yoga class with Emile Sorger at Amrita Yoga & Wellness in Fishtown, he told a joke in the middle of the class that involved a penguin and a highway, if I recall correctly, and he closed out the class with an Imagine Dragons song. In other words, he's not your typical yoga teacher — so it only makes sense that the yoga studio he's opening in Brewerytown with fellow Philly yogi Noah Julian won't be your average yoga studio.

Open House: Tour the Stylish Units at the Braverman Building in Brewerytown
If you've been following along with MM Partners on Instagram (if not, why?), then you're well aware that they're latest project at the Braverman Building is just about wrapped up. The new building is located at the corner of West Girard Avenue and Taney Street, and is set to bring 16 new apartments and two retail spaces to the burgeoning strip in Brewerytown.
The cool news is that you can break through the fourth wall of your phone or tablet screen and go experience the stylish new apartments yourself–in person! MMP's Jacob Roller tells us that they're running a series of open house events in the coming weeks, including one on December 12th from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Guests who turn out will be treated to a tour two of the stylish apartment units, which feature hardwood floors, huge windows with skyline views and more.
"This is an important building for Girard Avenue and Brewerytown, as it adds new construction to Girard Avenue for the first time in probably the better part of a century," said Roller in an email. "It is also the first building to take advantage of Girard Avenue's new CMX 2.5 zoning, which allows 5-story buildings and encourages density."
Renderings: Brewerytown Blight to Open as New "Eastern Lofts" Next Year
It's been a long time coming, but here it is: Eastern Lofts is set to open in early 2016.
Repurposed from the bones of the former American Railway Express Garage – otherwise known as the Eastern Building – at 3002-28 Cecil B. More Avenue (map), Eastern Lofts will breath new life to the site in the form of thirty-seven modern loft-style apartments with commercial space that includes a day care, coffee shop, and two open loft office spaces that are available for lease.
Tenants can expect to be welcomed in January, according to a project spokesperson, who added that a shared conference room will be onsite for commercial tenants.
Conceived by Gregory Reaves and partners in 2013, work officially commenced on the long-anticipated development in May 2015. Reaves, the Principal Managing Member at Mosaic Development Partners, is the owner of the site.
Headlines: Is Another Big Project on the Way in Brewerytown?
With a new construction fence wrapping the lot at at 31st and Thompson, all signs are starting to point towards another big project getting underway soon near Fairmount Park in Brewerytown. As Naked Philly points out, it comes hot off the heels of the completion another large apartment complex on the southwest corner, 31 Brewerytown. In fact, this new project on the southeast corner is by the same developer, Westrum Development.
Permits for the property at 3018 West Thompson Street show this new project is going to be a sizable one:

Council Committee OKs PHA Land Grab in Sharswood
At Tuesday's Philadelphia City Council Rules Committee hearing, Philadelphia Housing Authority President and CEO Kelvin Jeremiah painted a picture of a Sharswood whose residents lived in affordable homes with access to a thriving business district, good education, health care and employment opportunities, the product of its redeveloping some 1,300 parcels of land it wishes to acquire via eminent domain with new homes, offices and retail space.
The Rules Committee bought the picture, voting to refer a bill allowing the PHA to proceed with the land acquisition to the full Council. But some 20 city residents who testified against the bill weren't buying it at all. Read more »
This Restored Brewerytown Home Is Incredible…and For Sale
Wowza, here's another find you maybe didn't expect to see on Property: Sitting on the corner of 30th and West Girard is this gorgeously restored beauty that's listed for just under $700k. It has a completely rebuilt facade (designed to honor the property's history no less), is wired up for speakers and an intercom system, and has touch screen panels.

I purchased this brush in the handy size around 5 or 6 years ago while traveling in London. I had just read about a "$150" hairbrush in one of the beauty magazines and thought, "what insanity! ". (Even though as an older person I can easily afford the product.). I notice the price has gone up since. After trying this brush out at home, I thought I made a $450 mistake! (I bought one for me, and 2 as gifts). Yikes, it really hurt my scalp! I didn't touch it again for years, discouraged by my first attempts. Since you don't just throw away a brush that costs so much, I picked it up about a year ago and now I really enjoy the feeling of the bristles against my scalp. I don't know what happened if my scalp got tougher or what but I use it daily now and I really like it. Great, as none of us enjoy wasting money. Even though it is pricey, I can now recommend it wholeheartedly because it looks like it will last for years. I have fine shoulder length hair and this brush does a marvelous job of redistributing the scalp oils. Don't overdo it, however, about 10-15 brush strokes is adequate.

Worth every penny. The brush will last you a lifetime. The bristles intensely massage your scalp and smooth out your hair like no other. I purchased mine 20 years ago and I still have the same one (I wash it regularly).
I know this isn't a website for dog items but have to give a plug for the 4 legged furry babies. I loved how the brush felt so much against my scalp and how it made my hair so smooth and glossy, I purchased a separate one for my dogs. They lay there so contentedly (they give me a look or sign when I stop) and I can see their fur looking so much glossier and smoother that no other brush has ever achieved after just a few minutes.

I was intrigued by all the reviews i've read about this brush. However i was tossing up for months to buy it because i couldnt justify the price. The chemist near my house sold it 20% cheaper than the normal retail price, so i finally caved in & bought the handy size in classic black. I have to say i'm still not used to how scratchy the boar bristles can feel on my scalp. I've been using it daily for over 2 weeks now and so far so good. I feel my scalp is healthier, no more itch on the next day after i wash my hair. My ends feel moisturised. I notice less hair fall when i wash my hair in the shower. I have also stopped using any styling product completely. Because brushing my hair regularly gives it a nice defined shape, that i can only achieve with the help of styling product previously. Really love this brush. Overall i'm really happy with it.

This brush was a gift to myself for my birthday. I am very pleased with the quality of this brush I have had it for about 9 months now, and with weekly dry cleaning it looks brand new. I have used boar bristle only brush for several years now. This brush has the longest length of boar bristles compared to all my prior brushes. I find it easily reaches my scalp for "massage" benefits. Handle shape and length are perfect. I am surprised how light weight this brush is compared to other similar brushes. It's a lot of money to spend on a brush, but it's a great investment for those with long straight fine hair. I use it every night after I detangle my hair. Works great to smooth fly-aways or stray hair in up do. I'd repurchase if I lost my current brush (but hope it doesn't happen, due to the price)

I got my Mason Pearson Bristle & Nylon brush from Barneys NY over a year ago and I've been using it on clean and freshly washed scalp everyday ever since. I also use it to style, and tame backcombed hair, the nylon part of the brush is perfect for detangling without pulling hair out.
I love using my MP before i sleep because it gives the scalp such a good massage and distributes essential hair oils evenly and effectively, especially if you flip your head over and brush from the nape to the tip of your hair.
I have fine and wavy full bodied hair that becomes quite poofy from static right after using the brush. But after an hour or so, it settles into a nice shape with volume.
Overall, a healthier and fuller crown after a year of continuous use!

I had to think long and hard about this brush before I bought it. It is a lot of money to spend on a hair brush and I read review after review after review before I finally decided to get one. I bought the smaller size because for me it is easier to use a smaller brush. This really is a spectacular brush. I brush my hair every night with this and feel it gives me a great scalp massage and has made my hair look healthier with continued use. Would any boar bristle brush do that? I don't know. I just know that it has improved the condition of my hair and I am glad I have it.

My boyfriend spent a couple of weeks in London last year, and he brought this back as a surprise for me, so maybe I'm biased but this brush is one of my most treasured posessions.
Obviously it's an expensive hairbrush. Perhaps cheaper pure bristle brushes could do the exact same job. I haven't tried them all, so I don't know. What I do know, is that looking at my Mason Pearson (I've got the extra large size) laying on my dressing table makes me very happy. It's luxury. It's heirloom quality. It does a beautiful job brushing my hair. After my first few days with it, people were asking me ALL the time about what I had done to my hair. Most were incredulous when I put it all down to a new hairbrush. It feels fantastic on my scalp too.
If I am lucky enough to have a daughter one day, she will be receiving a MP for her first birthday!

I'm writing this review because I had a conversation with someone recently who had heard of MP brushes but had never tried one. She complained that when researching info on the internet, lots of people rave about them but don't explain how they work... what makes them worth the price tag. So here is my stab at that. Boar's bristles are like human hair, in the same way that you can put a pig's heart in a human and ballistics experts fire bullets into sides of pork. We have something oddly in common with the piggie, which is why in my inexpert opinion they are considered forbidden to eat by 2/3rd of monotheism (and probably were by the other third before the message got muddled). Diseases can jump the species very easily due to the similarity (and not to mention the prohibition on eating carnivores, because you never know if they've eaten something a bit human). Back to the brush... the bristles are particularly good at picking up and absorbing the sebum at the root of your hair, because they are like your hair, and then transferring it down the hair shaft. A plastic bristle will not do this (so for that matter, I actually think there's no point in the purely nylon MP brushes). This makes a tremendous difference to someone who has oily roots and dry ends, and that's why these brushes are particularly good for long hair. Second point, there are a lot of bristles clustered together in the tufts, which means they pick up more hair. There are other brushes that can do this, but in my experience they would pull (out) or tangle the hair. Because these bristles are so soft, they don't do this. So more of the individual strands are being touched by bristles. This means that if you have the type of hair already described, you get a lot of lift at the root. Third, the brush closes the hair cuticle. Again this is because it's transferring more sebum to more individual strands. I know one of the selling points is the cushy base, but I think a lot of brushes have that nowadays so it doesn't seem that relevant to me on its own, but combined with the bristles it does add to the fact that the brush doesn't pull your hair because it's so flexible. I use mine every day and it makes a tremendous difference to the volume. What it doesn't help with is static. My hair becomes more static-y while I'm using the brush, but the act of brushing creates static and I haven't come across any brush or comb (even wooden ones) that help with this. It's just the way my hair is, and the best solution for that is leave-in products or spending more time in humid environments. As for the various size of brushes, it's kind of up to the size of your head and hands. I have the 'extra' size as my main brush, which is a size down from the largest. I'm not a big person and this one feels comfortable to me. The handle fits perfectly in my hand. I also have a child size one for my handbag because it's the same size as the pocket version and was less expensive. I very much use these for 'grooming the hair' and not for styling. I comb my hair after washing, I have a big paddle brush I use during blow drying. But I will use the small MP brush to tame my hair during the course of a day, and then I use the big one every night to just brush out my hair.

Before I purchased this product, I spent a lot of time researching it. There were so many overwhelming positive reviews that I had a slight suspicion that the company paid for these reviews (it's a bit cynical, but I'm sure it happens). Plus my local department store sold the largest bristle brush at over $300 a pop hence my skepticism.
I found an online store that sold the "handy" size brush (the largest size I could stomach considering the price tag) for nearly $100 off the retail price compared to brick and mortar stores and went through with the purchase. There was instant regret followed by hesitation whilst waiting for the delivery and hoping that it does what everyone says it does, ie the HG of hair brushes.
First impression
1. The bristles hurt a lot! I stopped using brushes ages ago but at least I remember the plastic ones didn't hurt. Moment of self doubt about the purchase ensues and worry that it will hurt just as much with every use.
2. The moment of "wow" didn't happen - it just brushed my hair... but I kept using it anyway considering the price of the brush.
Current impression (with over a weeks worth of use)
1. The bristles don't hurt as much - either the bristles softened or my scalp is now use to the feeling. The bristles does (as others say) provides a massage for the scalp, and I'm finding that rather than shying away from the brush, I enjoy the feeling of bristles on my scalp.
2. I have noticed that after brushing (on freshly washed dry hair), my hair is not as flat and even gives my hair a bit of style. My hair feels thicker and stays put longer. Back brushing even gives the effect of a blow wave. There's so much added volume, I couldn't believe that a brush did so much. I'm so impressed that I've made it an instant habit to give my hair a brush before going anywhere!
*However, I have noticed that the effects don't last long without hair product.
3. However, I am slightly disappointed with the brush on day old hair. I have genetically oily hair and have read so many reviews on how other people can last days without washing their hair after using this brush. Yes it does slightly help in making my day old hair look less oily but by the end of the day, it's at a point were I must wash it and no brush can help (even though I have brushed my hair throughout the day hoping it would work). Possibly the only pro is that this brush is good for styling after I use dry shampoo (compared to the comb).
Would I recommend it?
Maybe - if you can afford it with ease, sure why not. There's always satisfaction of owning the Royals Royce of brushes even if it doesn't live up to its hype. But currently I wouldn't say that I couldn't live without it (my Clarisonic - that I couldn't live without). So yes, if you have $200 to spare and it's between the MP or the Clarisonic, I would recommend the Clarisonic.
I really want to love this brush, so I will keep using it to see if there are any further improvements.Maybe my answer will change with further use, since it has already.

Okay so I took like 30mins to type a super long detailed review about this but when I submitted the review there was an error. I am soooo annoyed but because of the splendid experience I have with my dear MP, I am retyping the review just so that I can share with you how this brush changed my hair 180deg.
I never brush my hair. Like ever, because I have thick wavy hair and brushing just destroys the waves and leave my hair in a tangling mess. Probably like every other Singaporean or person who lives in hot tropical weather, I have to wash my hair everyday because of the oil buildup. Soon my hair became so dry, frizzy that every hairstylist I went to said I needed to do something about my hair. So then started the mission of buying expensive shampoos, conditioners, hair oils and treatments. I even attempted to go nopoo which by the end of the 2nd day, itches my scalp so mad and I have tons of drandruff (gross I know). Bad idea since I perspire so easilyyy.
Desperate, I did a long long long research online on how I can better improve my hair condition. FORTUNATELY I found MP... and forked out an SGD234 for the pure extra large BBB from StrawberryNet. (My fellow Singaporeans who want a reliable and cheap place to buy do check out this site)
MP transformed my hair from an unruly mess to silky shiny smoothness. I tell you the results are incredible even after just 4 days of brushing. Results are definitely quick if you ask me. The brush collects and distributes oil so efficiently that even my hair ends were smooth. I could go now without shampoo for 4days and yet not experience a single itch on my scalp. IT. IS. THAT. GOOD! Instead of applying oil 2 times a day now I only apply once every hair wash. The only time I had hair this fantastic was after doing a silky rebonding at a hair salon. I never EVER knew brushing could change my hair this way. If you want to see how good it is, view my profile pic!
Price tag is definitely on the heavy side, but it saves you money as well from all the cutting down on shampoo and oiling and, ladies, you should not be washing your hair every day unless your hair is super fine. If it does help you, I use baby powder for dry shampoo and comb it out religiously. It also gives you beautiful volumnous bed head hair if you apply it before you sleep.
So now for the downside....
The brush seems to collect alot of my hair.. Like probably 15 strands per 100strokes. I think it is because I am brushing it too much, which I should not, but also it may be because going nopoo meant shedding hair will collect on your head until something gets it out, like, a brush. I am not too worried about this since I have thick hair and sometimes wish it wasnt so thick...
Another thing is that the first use of the brush and I spot 2-3 bristles splitting into a Y shape. I heard that this is fine, as boar bristles are natural hair and definitely are prone to splitting as much as human hair does, though it should not split so quickly just from the first use. But I got a replacement from StrawberryNet so thats fine too. I did also heard that the splits may hurt your hair, and if this bothers you, you can clip it off easily with a nail clipper.
My Final Verdict: Buy the brush already!!! Pricey yes but better to do it the healthy, natural way then to dump tons of chemicals of hair care products on your hair. The brush lasts a lifetime, but I would not mind repurchasing if I lose or damage it.per.

New to Higher Education and I.T. Strategic Plan
Good Morning Colleagues,
I've recently entered the exciting world of higher education, after working 26+ years in healthcare. I was even more excited to learn that there's a true spirit of collaboration amongst those of us that try to do the best with what we have in I.T.
One of my first tasks, as you can imagine, is to draft our I.T. strategic plan. I was wondering if any of you would be willing to share yours, just so I have a starting point and can learn from those that have walked before me. One of you has already been so gracious, but my VP would like a sampling of 4-5 as a starting point. My e-mail is below if you're more comfortable sharing outside the forum. Thanks everyone.
Kind Regards,

I'd like to encourage CIOs to post current materials.

Our Sunderland Escorts Directory only accepts listings from the very best Sunderland escorts.
Sunderland is a city which lies at the heart of the City of Sunderland metropolitan borough, a part of Tyne and Wear, in North East England. It is situated at the mouth of the River Wear, and is the Second City of the North East region after Newcastle upon Tyne. Historically a part of County Durham, there were three original settlements on the site of modern-day Sunderland. On the north side of the river, Monkwearmouth was settled in 674 when Benedict Biscop founded the Wearmouth-Jarrow monastery. Opposite the monastery on the south bank, Bishopwearmouth was founded in 930. A small fishing village called Sunderland, located toward the mouth of the river was granted a charter in 1179. Over the centuries, Sunderland grew as a port, trading coal and salt. Ships began to be built on the river in the 14th century. By the 19th century, the port of Sunderland had grown to absorb Bishopwearmouth and Monkwearmouth. A person who is born or lives around the Sunderland area is sometimes colloquially known as a Mackem.

Ordered new rack & was charged 195.00+ 40.00 shipping. This was 10/31/06. As of 03/10/07 my account has not been credited. While installing rack we noticed a crack in front crossmember passenger side slightly below upper control arm pivot.
Again called Justin @ Scotts who admitted at the time IFS was purchased there were three other similar failures due to poor workmanship by an employee who was fired. Scotts advertises lifetime warranty. His next reply to me was to send pictures , remove crossmember and return for replacement. My reply was, it is easier to repair than to remove entire front of truck. Justin stated, so fix it.
Sent invoice for repair which included price of rack (195.00 + 233.75 r&r rack) (552.50 repair of crossmember total 981.25) Replacement of rack fixed steering problem. Customer also called and sent pictures. Justin denies receiving pictures and will not respond to email.

A few things to remember about a day to never forget: the day the birthplace of the labor movement became right to work
Never, ever forget
Eclectagraphic by Anne C. Savage, special to Eclectablog
A year ago today, Michigan, the birthplace of the modern labor movement, became the country's 24th right to work state. Though it has failed to kill the labor movement in the way its corporatist proponents had hoped it would, neither has it done anything that could even remotely be considered good for job growth in our state. In fact, a continuous drop in Michigan's unemployment rate came to an abrupt end several months later and it began to rise again. For the past three months, it's been stalled at 9%, the third worst in the country.…Read more ›

Historical Traveler Reviews Clarion Hotel Liffey Valley Dublin
Great rooms, cold reception
I went to this hotel September this year with two of my girlfriends. Thought the hotel looked great at first, really clean and contemporary recpetion area. We arrived at around 7am after a long drive to Wales and then a trip on the ferry to Dublin, so were pretty tired as you can imagine. When we got there we produced our booking reference (all booked through expedia) and gave our name. They could not find our reservation, so we gave all of our names, still no luck. Despite having paid already, we were made to feel like we shouldn't be there and had made up this reservation! Eventually after spelling all of our names AND again reminding them it was booked through Expedia - they found it, under an expedia booking in the name we had originally said.
Finally we got up to the room, this was worth the wait, they really are gorgeous and SO comfortable. The curtains are so thick you can't hear any traffic noise and it keeps the room dark, perfect for us after a night at Temple Bar!
The reception staff continued to treat us like we shouldn't be there throughout our stay - although they were very helpful over the phone, booked taxis etc. They did not ruin our stay though, hotel is lovely just a shame about the staff and their attitude towards young guests.
If you are going (like we were) on a holiday to go out in the evenings, I wouldn't recommend this hotel, it's about 20mins drive from Temple Bar and on the way back is REALLY hard to get a taxi to take you that far. TIP: If you do try to get a taxi back, get the number of the taxi firm the hotel always use, they were brilliant and didn't over charge or anything.
Dublin is a great city, and the people are great, except the staff in this hotel (none of which were Irish!)
Great 'new' hotel
The hotel had just opened when i stayed. I stayed on the second night they were open and then again later that week.
I found the hotel to be very comfortable and welcoming, the staff were friendly and the room very clean.
I was put off slightly by the early wake up call of the work men but this was to be expected!
I had room service and the wait was not that long and the food was divine!! It was well presented and the staff were all courteous!!
Definintely worth a stay!
I never had the chance to experience the leisure facilities as these were yet to open whilst i stayed.
Not impressed.
I recently stayed at the "NEW" clarion hotel @ liffey valley and was extremely disappointed with the location and the hotel in general has a very clinical feel to it, initial impression is of a medical clinic or very large office block. For those of you who dont know dublin this hotel is in situated in the middle of a very suburban area, it is right on the main N4 which is the west road out of dublin. Not to bad in terms of Liffey valley shopping centre is next door and the rooms were clean and relatively comfortable.
But not worth the money in my opinion, no real atmosphere in bar and reastaurant or among staff.
Great hotel
One of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in. We didn't sample the food as we dined in town or in the shopping centre. The beds were very comfortable and the room decor really lovely. As has already been said the shopping centre is across the road and also there is a regular bus service to the city centre. Took all the hassle out of staying in Dublin and would definitely stay there again. The leisure centre is a huge plus and enticed us to stay an extra night.
Nice,clean and bright
The hotel is spotless rooms clean and bathroom lovely.The leisure centre is very good.Staff we not hugely helpfull at reception.
I stayed in this hotel on Aug20/21.Booked a triple room for myself and my two little nieces as we were on a weekend away treat.Unfortunatly, when we arrived we ended up in a double/single which was most annoying as this ment we had to double up.
I had also requested a quiet room away from traffic but we ended up above the bus park,which wouldn't have been so bad if we could have closed the window,but as the room was far too hot and there was no airconditioning we spent most of the night awake listening to buses comming and going.
I would stay here again,but I would ring to make sure they book you in to the correct room type and maybe request a fan if the weather is warm.
Very good base for shopping,liffey valley center just up the road and Blanchards town or Dundrum centers only 15 mins away by car max.
4 star rooms and facilities but definatly not 4 star service :-(
Excellent Hotel
This is an excellent, well situated hotel with easy access to Dublin City,Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, surrounding areas and access to/from the airport.The rooms were clean and modern and staff very accommodating.My children were especially impressed with the leisure pool and swam every day.
The breakfast was impressive with much choice and service good.We ate Dinner in the restaurant and although the menu and food was good the service was considerably slow,usually taking 2hours from start to finish.
I would definitely recommend this hotel,providing you have a car and would stay again.
Great hotel for shopping!
This is an excellent hotel. We paid 119Eur per room per night B&B for 3 adults. The breakfast was delicious and plenty of it. The rooms were very clean and very spacious.
A great hotel for shopping - the new Dundrum shopping centre is only 15 mins away and Liffey Valley is on your doorstep.
I would definitely stay here again.
Spent one day and night here and found the bedrooms, corridors and conference rooms far too hot. Air conditioning not adjustable in bedrooms.
Breakfast at 7.45 am was totally overcrowded but food good.
Leisure centre nice.
Building sites in front of bedrooms.
Ideally situated for travel to/from west of Ireland but overall, only middling.
Expected more from reading previous reviews.
Excellent new business hotel
Just newly opened hotel on the outskirts of Dublin in an excellent location if you are travelling down the country or up to Dublin for business.While the hotel is not fully operational it impressed me with the standards of its bedroom and its staff and would seem to be an very impressive facility when completed..It also has what seems like an excellent leisure facility opening shortly,they said mid May.It is a hotel I will use again and with prices at 99 euro per night at the moment it is great value.
Excellent New Hotel
This is a new hotel, we stayed on the second night the hotel was open. There were a few teething problems but in general we had a very nice stay. The good points are they have proper beds, not zipped up the middle, nice bathrooms with deep tubs and although not quite working yet the rooms have plug and play broadband and also wifi. Room service took about 30 minutes but was well worth the wait, the best hotel food I've ever had. Breakfast in the room was good too, this is one of very few hotels to get the breakfast order right, the food was also hot including the toast. There were a few glitches with the hotel just being opened but all were dealt with very professionally by the staff who took great interest in the few negative comments I had. The rooms are beautiful and the staff very attentive and friendly. Although the Clarion brand is not consitant this is by far one of the better hotels. Would definatley recommed this hotel.

Alexander technique
The Alexander Technique (AT), named after Frederick Matthias Alexander, is an educational process that develops the ability to realign posture and to avoid unnecessary muscular and mental tension. Alexander believed the individual's self-awareness could be inaccurate, resulting in unnecessary muscular tension such as when standing or sitting with body weight unevenly distributed, holding one's head incorrectly, walking or running inefficiently, and responding to stressful stimuli in an exaggerated way. Alexander said that those who habitually "misused" their muscles could not trust their feelings (sensory appreciation) when carrying out activities or responding to situations emotionally.[1]
Alexander developed the technique's principles in the 1890s[2] in an attempt to alleviate breathing problems and hoarseness during public speaking. He credited his method with allowing him to pursue his passion for acting in Shakespearean theater.[3]
Advocates of the Alexander Technique also claim that it has treatment potential for a variety of health conditions. However, as of 2013[update], supporting medical evidence was of low to moderate quality and overall, the effectiveness of the Alexander Technique is uncertain because of insufficient evidence.[4] There is evidence suggesting the Alexander Technique is helpful for long-term back pain, long-term neck pain, and may help people cope with Parkinson's disease, but little evidence that it helps any other medical conditions.[5]
Frederick Matthias Alexander (1869–1955) was a Shakespearean orator who developed voice loss during his performances. After doctors found no physical cause, Alexander reasoned that he was inadvertently damaging himself while speaking to cause the problem. He observed himself in multiple mirrors and saw that he was contracting his posture prior to phonation in preparation for verbal responses. He hypothesized that a habitual pattern of pulling his head backwards and downwards needlessly disrupted the normal working of the total postural, breathing, and vocal mechanisms.
With experimentation, Alexander developed the ability to stop the unnecessary and habitual contracting in his neck, displacement of his head, and shortening of his stature, and found that his problem with recurrent voice loss was resolved. While on a recital tour in New Zealand (1895) he began to realise the wider significance of head carriage for overall physical functioning.[citation needed] Further, Alexander observed that many individuals commonly tightened their musculature in the same pattern as he had done, in anticipation of many other activities besides speech.
Alexander believed his work could be applied to improve individual health and well being. He further refined his method of self-observation and re-training to teach his discoveries to others. As part of his teaching method, he also developed a unique way of imparting the improved kinesthetic and proprioceptive experience to his students. This approach to using the hands also allowed him to re-arrange the working of a person's entire supportive musculature as it functions in relation to gravity from moment to moment. He explained his reasoning in four books published in 1918, 1923, 1931 (1932 in the UK) and 1942.
He also trained teachers to teach his work and to use their hands in this unique way from 1930 until his death in 1955. Teacher training was continued during World War II between 1941 and 1943, when Alexander accompanied children and teachers of the Little School to Stow, Massachusetts to join his brother, A. R. Alexander, who also taught his brother's technique. The American teacher training course included Frank Pierce Jones,[6] who went on to conduct research work to explore aspects of the Alexander Technique at the Tufts Institute for Psychological Research, and he published many of his studies in professional journals.
Since the 1960s, numerous training schools for teachers of the Alexander Technique have started up in the United States—some based upon the standards of training laid down by the Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique established in England after Alexander's death in 1955 and others established by those who had not undergone the required length of training. In 1987, The North American Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique was established to maintain high teaching standards. It is now called The American Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique and is affiliated with the original Alexander society in London.
The American philosopher and educator John Dewey became impressed with the Alexander Technique after his headaches, neck pains, blurred vision, and stress symptoms largely improved during the time he used Alexander's advice to change his posture.[7] In 1923, Dewey wrote the introduction to Alexander's Constructive Conscious Control of the Individual.[8]
Aldous Huxley had transformative lessons with Alexander, and continued doing so with other teachers after moving to the US. He rated Alexander's work highly enough to base the character of the doctor who saves the protagonist in 'Eyeless in Gaza' (an experimental form of autobiographical work) on F.M. Alexander, putting many of his phrases into the character's mouth.[9] Huxley's work 'The Art of Seeing' also discusses his views on the technique.
Sir Stafford Cripps, George Bernard Shaw, Henry Irving and other stage grandees, Lord Lytton and other eminent people of the era also wrote positive appreciations of his work after taking lessons with Alexander.
Since Alexander's work in the field came at the start of the 20th century, his ideas influenced many originators in the field of mind-body improvement. Fritz Perls, who originated Gestalt therapy, credited Alexander as an inspiration for his psychological work.[10] The Feldenkrais Method and the Mitzvah Technique were both influenced by the Alexander Technique.
Alexander's approach emphasizes certain strategies applied to the use of the self, which could be now called 'mindful' action, though in his four books he did not use that term. The technique is applied dynamically to everyday movements, as well as to actions selected by teacher or student.
Actions such as sitting, squatting, lunging or walking are often selected by the teacher. Other actions may be selected by the student, tailored to their interests or work activities such as hobbies, computer use, lifting, driving or performance in acting, sports, speech or music. Alexander teachers often use themselves as examples. They demonstrate, explain, and analyze a student's moment to moment responses as well as using mirrors, video feedback or classmate observations. Guided modelling with a highly skilled hand contact is the primary tool for detecting and guiding the student into a more coordinated state in movement and at rest. Suggestions for improvements are often student-specific.[11]
Exercise as a teaching tool is deliberately omitted because of a common mistaken assumption that there exists a "correct" position. There are only two specific procedures that are practiced by the student; the first is lying semi-supine; resting in this way uses "mechanical advantage" as a means of redirecting long-term and short-term accumulated muscular tension into a more integrated and balanced state. This position is sometimes referred to as "constructive rest", or "the balanced resting state". It's also a specific time to practice Alexander's principle of conscious "directing" without "doing". The second exercise is the "Whispered Ah", which is used to co-ordinate free breathing and vocal production.
Freedom, efficiency and patience are the prescribed values. Proscribed are unnecessary effort, self-limiting habits as well as mistaken perceptual assumptions. Students are led to change their largely automatic routines that are interpreted by the teacher to currently or cumulatively be physically limiting, inefficient, or not in keeping with best use of themselves as a whole. The Alexander teacher provides verbal coaching while monitoring, guiding and preventing unnecessary habits at their source with a specialized hands-on assistance.[12]
This specialized hands-on skill also allows Alexander teachers to bring about a balanced working of the student's supportive musculature as it relates to gravity's downward pull from moment to moment. Often, students require a great deal of hands-on work in order to experience a fully poised relation to gravity in both movement and at rest as they react to all life's stimuli. The hands-on skill requires Alexander teachers to maintain in themselves from moment to moment the improved psycho-physical co-ordination they are communicating to the student.[12]
Alexander developed terminology to describe his methods, outlined in his four books that explain the experience of learning and substituting new improvements.
- Constructive Conscious Control
- Alexander insisted on the need for strategic reasoning because kinesthetic and proprioceptive sensory awarenesses are relative senses, not truthful indicators of a person's factual relationships within him/herself or within the environment. A person's habitual neuro-muscular relation to gravity is often sensed internally as normal, however inefficient. Alexander's term, "debauched sensory appreciation" describes how the repetition of an action or response encourages the formation of habits as a person adapts to various circumstances or builds skills. Once trained and forgotten, completed habits may be activated without feedback sensations that these habits are in effect, even when only thinking about the situations that elicit them.[13] Short-sighted habits that have become harmfully exaggerated over time, such as restricted breathing or other habitually assumed adaptations to past circumstances, will stop after learning to perceive and prevent them.
- End-gaining
- Another example is the term "end-gaining". This term means to focus on a goal so as to lose sight of the "means-whereby"[14] the goal could be most appropriately achieved. According to Alexander teachers, "end-gaining" increases the likelihood of selecting older or multiple conflicting coping strategies. End-gaining is usually carried out because an imperative priority of impatience or frustration justifies it. Excessive speed in thinking and acting often facilitates end-gaining.
- Inhibition
- In the Alexander Technique lexicon, the principle of "inhibition" is considered by teachers to be the most important to gaining improved "use." F.M. Alexander's selection of this word predates the meaning of the word originated by Sigmund Freud. Inhibition, or 'intentional inhibition', is the act of refraining from responding in one's habitual manner - in particular, imposed tension in neck muscles (see Primary Control). Inhibition describes a moment of conscious awareness of a choice to interrupt, stop or entirely prevent an unnecessary habitual "misuse". As unnecessary habits are prevented or interrupted, a freer capacity and range of motion resumes and a more spontaneous choice of action or behavior can be discovered, which is experienced by the student as a state of "non-doing" or "allowing."
- Primary control
- This governs the normal or abnormal working of our postural mechanisms in relation to gravity from moment to moment, and there can be either a correct or incorrect employment of our "primary control" in every waking moment in reaction to the stimulus of living. The correct employment of the primary control involves a particular quality of head, neck, torso, and limb relationship as we respond to gravity and all life's stimuli. Our responses are influenced for good or ill by the qualities of head and eye direction at the inception of a reaction. A subtle projection of intention for the neck to be free, the head to flow forward and up, the back to lengthen and widen serves to counteract the common backward and downward pull of the head on the neck and shortening in stature that can often be detected at the beginning of every reaction to a stimulus from within or without—as seen particularly in the startle pattern. Students gradually learn to include a constant attention to their lengthening in stature as a basis for initiating and continuing an action, responding to stimuli, or remaining constructively at rest.
- Directions
- To continue to select and reinforce the often less dominant "good use", it is recommended to repeatedly suggest, by thinking to oneself, a particular series of "Orders" or "Directions." "Giving Directions" is the expression used for thinking and projecting the positive aspect of how one's self may be used in the most unified psycho-physical way as conveyed by the teacher's hands during a lesson. "Directing" is suggestively thought, rather than willfully accomplished, because the neuro-muscular responses to "Directing" often occur underneath one's ability to perceive how they are actually carried out neurophysiologically and neurocognitively. As freedom of expression or movement is the objective, the most appropriate responses cannot be anticipated, but are observed and chosen in the moment.
- Psycho-physical unity
- Global concepts such as "Psycho-physical Unity" and "Use" describe how thinking strategies and attention work together during preparation for an action or for withholding one. They connote the general sequence of how intention joins together with execution to directly affect the perception of events and the outcome of intended results.[15]
The Alexander Technique is used and taught by classically trained vocal coaches and musicians. Its advocates claim that it allows for a balanced use of all aspects of the vocal tract by consciously increasing air-flow, allowing improved vocal skill and tone. Because the method has allegedly been used to improve breathing and stamina in general, advocates also claim that athletes, people with asthma, tuberculosis, and panic attacks have also found improvements. The method is said by actors to reduce stage fright and to increase spontaneity.[16]
The Alexander Technique is a frequent component in acting training.[15] According to Alexander Technique instructor Michael J. Gelb, people tend to study the Alexander Technique in an attempt either to rid themselves of pain, to increase their performance abilities, or for reasons of personal development and transformation.[17]
The Alexander Technique is most commonly taught privately in a series of 10 to 40 private lessons which may last from 30 minutes to an hour. Students are often performers, such as actors, dancers, musicians, athletes and public speakers, or people who work on computers, or who are in frequent pain for other reasons. Instructors observe their students, then show them how to hold themselves and move with better poise and less strain.[18] Sessions include chair work and table work, often in front of a mirror, during which the instructor and the student will stand, sit and lie down, moving efficiently while maintaining a comfortable relationship between the head, neck and spine.[19]
To qualify as a teacher of Alexander Technique, instructors are required to complete 1,600 hours, spanning three years, of supervised teacher training. The result must be satisfactory to qualified peers to gain membership in professional societies.[11][20]
Health effects[edit]
An Australian review concluded that the Alexander Technique might help alleviate lower back pain in the short-term (up to 3 months) but that the safety and cost-effectiveness of the treatment was not established. It considered the evidence to be poor.[4] The UK National Health Service found evidence that the Alexander Technique may provide benefit for long-term back pain and long-term neck pain for up to a year or more.[5]
There is moderate evidence that the technique may help people cope with Parkinson's disease.[5][21] No adequately designed clinical trials exist that allow evaluation of claims that the technique helps people with asthma.[4][22][needs update] There is also little evidence that it can help with headaches, osteoarthritis, insomnia or stress.[5] While some proponents of the Alexander Technique state it can be used to treat chronic musculoskeletal pain, post-traumatic stress disorder, and generalised anxiety disorder, there is no scientific evidence that these conditions can be treated with this method.[4]

Natural Remedies for Charcot Marie Tooth Disease
Oct 27, 2015
Many health conditions can be illusive or even deceiving, and Charcot Marie Tooth disease is no different. Upon first hearing the name, you likely thought this condition had something to do with your mouth; however, it actually has nothing to do with your teeth or gums but is rather a condition that affects the nerves in your arms and legs (named for the three doctors who discovered it in 1886). In any case, while there are no cures for the disease, a number of different therapies and supplements are effective for managing the condition including vitamin C, physical therapy, and yoga.
What Is Charcot Marie Tooth Disease?
Also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, Charcot Marie Tooth disease (CMT) is actually a name used to categorize a group of hereditary disorders. These issues damage the nerves in your arms or legs or your "peripheral nerves."
The symptoms of the condition are sometimes hard to identify initially as the disease typically develops asymptomatically. As the condition progresses, you will likely experience weakness in your legs and feet, muscle loss in your legs and feet, high foot arches, curled toes, decreased ability to run, difficulty lifting your feet, awkward or higher than normal gait, frequent tripping or falling, and decreased sensation or feeling in your legs and feet. These symptoms may also develop in your hands and arms.
Are There Any Natural Cures for Charcot Marie Tooth Disease?
While there are not any known cures for the condition, there are a number of treatment options that can help you manage Charcot Marie Tooth disease. Most individuals experience little to no pain in conjunction with the disease, so the focus of treatment generally lies within maintaining muscle mass and use. Effective remedies for the condition include physical therapy, stretching or yoga, and exercise. Vitamin C has also been recently identified as an effective supplement for treating the condition.
1. Physical Therapy
As CMT often involves the weakening of muscles, physical therapy and strength training are important treatment options. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the most effective physical therapy regimens involve muscle strength training, ligament stretching, stamina training and aerobic exercise. Therapists typically create a treatment program paired with a home exercise program to help affected individuals maintain and even improve muscle strength and flexibility.
2. Yoga
As muscle rigidity is another issue associated with Charcot Marie Tooth, stretching is an important component of treatment. Yoga is one of the most effective training practices for improving flexibility and balance. Yoga also helps realign the body and correct any issues in muscle development.
3. Vitamin C
Dr. Davide Pareyson of the National Neurological Institute presents vitamin C as an effective treatment for CMT. Research suggests that vitamin C effectively limits and even reverses neuropathy. The nutrient does so as it is an antioxidant that decreases the expression of the hereditary material that causes CMT. For the best results, begin taking 75mg of vitamin C by mouth every day.
As research continues, more treatment options are uncovered for Charcot Marie Tooth. Read below for more reader-contributed suggestions for how to cope with and treat CMT.

CMTD Link to Psychotic Disorders
Charcot Marie Tooth disease and other demyelination disorders are linked to Psychotic disorders
I would greatly appreciate the studies that show how Myelination disorders are linked to "mental illness" or psychotic disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. If this information was more public maybe more people would be getting better and not looking at those people with harsh stigma. If they knew that it was because the outer coating of their nerves were often worn thin due to Demyelination, whether from a brain lesion or the genetic disorder charcot marie tooth which I have the gene for--so I know for sure.
My mother is psychotic and she also has charcot marie tooth. My dream is that one day we will stop looking at people based biasedly on their behaviors knowing the genetic factors and causes of these biological disorders which are not random chemical imbalances. CMT is just one example of a rare illness that creates the rare psychosis affected by toxic oxidative stress.
I'd like to see radical new science and alternatives posted on earth clinic because if you could cure myelination you could cure and reverse the damage of psychosis, did you know that? This is one of many sites who boldly point to this theory. Thanks!!

Lion's Mane mushroom is proving very effective in rebuilding the myelin sheath in MS. It is non-toxic, and may be beneficial. There are many articles about this on the web. Google Lion's mane mushroom and myelin sheath. Just one article can be found here:
Best wishes.

3. Showing my latest Tweeter posts
However, their functionality seems very limited as far as I can tell. In Appearance->Boot Store you can enter an image, a link, a title and a description. I don't see a way to do any of the things I wanted to do. Is there some other way to enter data (like html code) that I'm not seeing.
Or, is there another source for getting information on this?

Acting in an immersive is an entirely different experience for the artist. We've asked our OjO actors to give you an inside view on what it's like to have a seat at the creative table, work with strangers and do 50 shows in three days.
Dateline Hollywood, 1946: RKO Pictures releases the Frank Capra comedy/drama It's a Wonderful Life. Though initially a box-office disappointment, this story about a man learning the impact he's had on others will become, according to the American Film Institute, the "Most Inspiring Movie" of all time.
I'll take the tweet seats any time – especially if I can enjoy the local arts scene while using my phone with full-on permission of the folks in charge.
The Bricolage Production Company opened its premier of It's a Wonderful Life, part of the Midnight Radio series, to a sold out house on Thursday evening. Most people are familiar with the story of George Bailey and his guardian angel, second class; before the show, the audience members could be heard talking about their love for the movie, Jimmy Stewart and the memories built around watching the movie with
Stephen King's "Carrie" gets yet another life as the season opener for Bricolage Production Company's "Midnight Radio" series.
Could this be a hit today: a tale tapping into the wish-fulfillment of practically every American teenager to trash the high school, the town and everybody who ever crossed him/her? Alas, in this century, children have been arrested for voicing or even suggesting such a fantasy.
You may already know "Carrie" from Stephen King's 1974 thriller, director Brian DePalma's 1976 movie or the 2013 remake. Maybe you bought tickets to one of the 21 performances of the now-legendary 1988 Broadway musical or the reworked version that played off-Broadway in 2012. You may even have met it as the unauthorized spoof "Scarrie! The Musical."

From the folks who brought you the massive Downtown theater event known as "STRATA" comes "OJO," a world premiere immersive theater experience billed as "the next generation of travel."
One of the more evocative, challenging art pieces I have seen in years took place as an "immersive theatrical experience" during the Three Rivers Arts Festival a couple of weeks back, and my mind is still working it out.

Mother arrested in Christmas death of Casa Grande teenager
PHOENIX — Authorities announced Sunday they have made an arrest in connection with the Dec. 25 death of a 13-year-old girl in Casa Grande.
Connie Villa, 35, was arrested Sunday morning at Maricopa Medical Center in Phoenix. She was charged with one count of first degree murder and four counts of attempted murder.
Villa is the mother of Aniarael Macias, 13, who was found dead in the bathroom of her home on Christmas Day.
Thomas Anderson of the Casa Grande Police Department said Adam Villa, 33, called police Dec. 25 claiming he had been stabbed repeatedly in the upper torso by his ex-wife. He drove himself to a hospital.
When police arrived at the home, Connie refused to open the door and officers had to force their way in, according to Anderson. Once inside, they found Connie holding a knife to her chest and suffering from stab wounds.
A short time later, officers found Connie's oldest daughter, Aniarael, dead in a bathroom.
Anderson said investigators believe Connie forced her younger children, ages 3, 5, and 8, to take prescription narcotic drugs in an attempt to kill them. Those children are in the hospital in stable condition, police said. Initial tests showed trace amounts of opiates in their systems.
Aniarael's body had no visible signs of injury or trauma, and an autopsy report was
inconclusive on the cause of death, Anderson said.
Authorities are awaiting toxicology results, which could take up to a month,
but they believe the teen was likely poisoned.
