Dr. Conor Buckley
Assistant Professor (Mechanical & Manuf. Eng)
3531896 2061
Adjunct Assistant Professor (School Office - Medicine)
On completion of a PhD degree in 2007 in the area of scaffolds and bone tissue engineering, Dr. Buckley worked as a senior postdoctoral fellow in the fields of cartilage regenerative medicine and mechanobiology- developing new strategies, medical devices and techniques for stem cell based repair. In 2009, Dr. Buckley was awarded an SFI fellowship to work in the mesenchymal stem cell group at the Leeds Institute of Molecular Medicine, UK focusing on isolation, enrichment and characterisation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from different tissue sources for regenerative medicine purposes. His current main research area focuses on the development of strategies to regenerate the intervertebral disc (IVD) and articular cartilage. Other research areas include design and development of bioreactor based systems, tissue engineering, nutrient micro-environments, biomaterial interactions and 3D scaffold construct technology. Dr. Buckley was appointed Assistant Professor (Tissue Engineering) in September 2011. He is currently module coordinator for 4B1 Mechanics of Solids, 4B20 Biomaterials, Biomechanics (MSc Bioengineering) and Cell & Tissue (MSc Bioengineering).

Project Title
Natural ECM Derived Injectable Microparticles for Regeneration of the Intervertebral Disc (DiscReGen)
Sep 2012
May 2014
Recent evidence suggests that degeneration initiates within the central region of the disc called the nucleus pulposus (NP). The objective of this grant is to develop an injectable microparticle encapsulated Extracellular Matrix (ECM) derived from NP tissue fabricated using electrospraying technology. It is hypothesised that these microparticles will provide key biochemical cues to stimulate repair and regeneration of the disc by the patient's own cells. This technology and approach for regeneration or repairing the intervertebral disc is highly attractive, and could be performed at an earlier stage of tissue degeneration to alleviate back pain thus reducing the number of patients requiring spinal fusion or artificial implant replacement surgery.

Project Title
Injectable Hydrogel Composites for Stem Cell Repair of the Nucleus Pulposus
Apr 2012
Apr 2016
Autologous cell implantation therapies have been proposed for the treatment of degenerated IVD similar to those currently used for cartilage repair in the knee. Recent investigations have demonstrated that reimplantation of extracted nucleus pulposus (NP) cells can retard degenerative changes, and injection of autologous. NP cells have been clinically tested in humans with herniated discs. However, it is believed that the number of NP cells that can be isolated from a degenerated disc is insufficient to meet the requirements for successful treatment. As an alternative, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess significant potential and perhaps provide a more readily available and clinically feasible source of cells for IVD repair therapies. A key challenge with using MSCs is developing suitable biomaterials that can be injected into the NP compartment whilst providing the optimal biochemical and biophysical environment to facilitate differentiation. The proposed project will utilise state of the art tissue engineering and biomaterial strategies using a combination of MSCs, injectable growth factor releasing hydrogel based systems.

They figured out that it was a rubber grommet on the clutch pedal that broke off. It is a safety switch that will not let the truck start if the clutch is not depressed. They charged 6.00 for the part and 65.50 for towing. I got the truck home and had the "destroyed" battery tested at Auto Zone and they said the battery is in perfect condition. I put the old battery back in the my truck and I tried to take the new battery back to the Tire Choice by my house. They told me that they could not do it because they are a different store. I explained the situation about them saying my battery was destroyed and I was told my old battery was never tested because it was not on the receipt. I tried to explain that I was standing right there when it was tested.
I called the store where I bought the battery and I asked for the corporate number. Bob told me that they do not have a corporate number and he could help me. I told him no thanks and that I would find the number to talk to them directly.
I think the situation was handled incorrectly. Also, I still can't wrap my head around the fact that the technician would lie right to my face and tell my my battery was "destroyed." I have a Tuffy Tire Center, Goodyear, Sam's Club Car Center, and a Firestone within a mile of the Tire Choice. I can guarantee that I will never step foot in the Tire Choice again.

"When Monique Demery set out to find the infamous Madame Ngo Dinh Nhu, the former First Lady of South Vietnam had been in exile for over forty years, and had lived in near seclusion for the last thirty of them. Entire books have been written about the consequences of that November coup: sorting out America's role and what effect it had on the coming war, but for the most part, historians were flummoxed by the Dragon Lady. Her hourglass figure filled and splash of color enlightened what were otherwise murky beginnings to a dismal war. And she gave Americans something to rally around, even if it was only to cheer against her. But little was heard from the woman herself. The last New York Times reporter who tried to get access to Madame Nhu in 1987 was turned away at the door and told she charged for interviews--one thousand dollars a pop. But somehow, through a mixture of patience, cunning, and a bit of luck, Demery managed to strike up a years-long relationship with the Dragon Lady and ultimately was entrusted with her diary and autobiography. This book is the story of that improbable connection and a deeper look at the woman who was feared and despised by so much of the world"--

Law to crack down on drinking and boating
WILLISTON The Vermont State Police Marine Division and two other law enforcement agencies are going to be cracking down on intoxicated boating this weekend.
The state police, the Grand Isle Sheriffs Department and the Colchester Police Marine Unit will be participating in Operation Dry Water as part of a nationally coordinated effort to reduce the number of accidents caused by operators who are under the influence of alcohol.
This weekends operation will focus on Lake Champlain, but state police officers will be working on other bodies of water as well.
It will include increased patrols, breathalyzer tests, and checkpoints as well as boater education.
Police say impaired boaters can expect to be arrested or face other serious penalties, including the possibility of fines, jail or loss of boating privileges.MORE IN This Just InBERLIN Free trade talks between the European Union and the United States have failed, Germanys...

The Olympic beach volleyball lies abandoned in southern Athens, Thursday, Aug. 2, 2012. The purpose-built stadium has seen minimal use _ mostly for concerts _ since the Athens 2004 Olympics. Eight years after the Athens Games, many of the venues remain abandoned or rarely used, focusing public anger on past governments as the country struggles through a fifth year of recession and a debt crisis that has seen a surge in poverty and unemployment.

Greece continues to reel from an extended economic crisis on the tenth anniversary of the Athens summer games.
Most economists agree that it would be unfair to blame high unemployment, slashed incomes and the violent overhaul of the country's economy on the 17 day games.
But other economists lament the post-Olympic era as a decade of lost opportunities.
The games left behind a mixed legacy.
There was a new subway and airport and other infrastructure improvements that have improved the lives of Athens citizens.
At the same time, the Olympics left behind decaying sports venues that lie abandoned after the games.
Barbed wire guards the beach volleyball venue.
Other venues are strewn with garbage.
In the Olympic village, debris floats in a training pool. The place is overgrown with weeds.
The Athens games cost Greece nearly nine billion dollars, double the initial cost.
Many believe those funds were squandered. Several reports are investigating the economic impact of the games.
The findings will be released by the end of the year.

I want some help please. I'm using WP 2.8.3
I want to show a list in the sidebar that displays all post titles, just like the pages list, with a dot before each title. I tried to use the 'recent posts' widget, but it said the max is 15 posts. I failed to find the file where I can increase that max number.
Is there a plugin or code edit that can do that please?

Your favorite d20 System variant?
I'm just curious what d20 System variant people here dig on the most. I've tried to make this list extensive, though I'm certain that I left a few off (so I included an option for "other" to compensate for my bad memory).Non-Functional .Sig

No Grim Tales on the list? Heck, it's in the forum description!
For me it's 1. Grim Tales 2. Conan 3. True 20
Honorable Mention: Spycraft, for rules-stealing only, I think it's an overly cumbersome system to actually play.

Granted, I've only tried three of the variants listed above, but Conan is by far my favorite.

OMG!!! You left off Lone Wolf?!?!?
I went with BESMd20, the red headed step-child of d20. It's not perfect, but I feel confident in my ability to cover any weaknesses that it might have. It's got a great range of flexibility, and was (at least in part) hampered by the lack of a setting to really showcase it. Everstone does a great example of showing how it can be leveraged, while turning it back a bit closer to the D&D roots. If there was only one d20 book I own that I could rescue from a fire, it'd be my Everstone book.
After that, I think I'd go with Lone Wolf. It's pretty close to baseline d20/D&D but slimmed down, and hit points (renamed "Endurance") are also what powers a number of the special abilities that the different classes have. And the abilities are tiered, sort of like Everstone does with its magic spells having different ranks. In the case of the Lone Wolf tiered bits though, it's not just a bump in damage/range/whatever, but in a number of cases the spell functions a bit differently.
Lone Wolf was the first d20 game I found that I thought, "Heck, I'd be willing to run this straight by the book!" And I still feel that way. I never read a single Lone Wolf book back in the day, although I did enjoy those "Choose your own adventure" books. I picked this book up and thumbed through it, and was immediately engaged. I'm not quite sure why (maybe the cover?) but I kind of got a "Daggerfall" feel from it. "Daggerfall" being the game before Morrowind.
Reading the Lone Wolf rpg and playing the Daggerfall game... those are the closest things I can think of in fantasy that make me think of Fafhrd and Grey Mouser. Granted, there's differences but... there's a kind of a feel to the three of them. I think it's the "low fantasy" aspect, where things aren't really grim-n-gritty, it's just an everyday kind of world you live in. Magic is a part of the setting, but not everything is about the magic. Dang, as I sit here trying to figure out how to explain it, I realize I just really can't. It's just a kind of tone and feeling to things, if that makes sense.
It's a compete game in one book as well. You've got all the stuff for the players, a GM section which includes NPC classes (Adept, Commoner, Aristocrat, etc), a bestiary, and world info. The back of the book has a map of the world included in it.
Lone wolf never has gotten much love it seems, and is a real over looked gem I think.
After Lone Wolf, I think I'd probably take Grim Tales. Good solid ideas, and a variety of ways to be able to tune the mechanics offered to better suit your tastes. I wouldn't try running a full Grim Tales game (just like I wouldn't run a straight D&D game), but there's plenty of bits and pieces that can be lifted depending on what you want.
And I'm a _serious_ fan of the whole Creature Creation thing it did. Enough of a fan that I bought the electronic version of it, so I could get the spreadsheet to handle all the calculations and so forth for me.
After that, things get muddier.
Random stream of consciousness thing...
I managed to acquire a bunch of M&M 1E books cheap (Rules, Annual, Freedom City, Nocturnals, GM Screen, Crooks for $45 including shipping) and really like a lot of what I see. It really does seem like it covers some of the same ground that BESMd20 does, only in a bit more coherent fashion. I guess the fact that the Power Point system appears to be Product Identity is what kept people from really trying to leverage it into a more universal system.
Still, I can't help but feel there's some cool stuff there. 2E just didn't catch my attention (I saw it first), but 1E did. Not quite sure why. Similar story for Blue Rose/True20... True20 falls flat for me, but I like what I see in Blue Rose.

I guess you could always ask what everyone's favourite d20/OGL systems are, even if it's in this thread, then do another poll with at least the more popular ones included, if not all of them.
Because, just for three examples, Spycraft, Grim Tales and SWSE all have a pretty dedicated following, unless I'm much mistaken.
There's also Modern20. . . and so on.
edit --- makes a bit more sense now.

I chose True20 because that's what I primarily use now, but d20 Modern is definitely tied with it for my d20 gaming affections.
I really like Grim Tales and d20 Call of Cthulhu too.

Labyrinth Lord is NOT a d20 variant. It's the old BD&D game put as an OGL game, with nothing d20 in it. Naming Castle & Crusade "SIEGE engine" is misleading...

Easy Holiday Decorating Ideas
Whether you're snowed in or staying by the shore this Christmas, you can create the perfect holiday home with a few of our favorite (and super simple!) tips and tricks.
Shades of sea foam green and pink mix for a tropical tree. Flamingo ornaments add a playful vibe, and a ribbon topper is an easy and pretty finish.
A breakfast area gets a holiday finish with shell wreaths hung with pale blue ribbon.
A square boxwood wreath brings holiday cheer to an outdoor seating area. Bistro lights also add ambiance and can be left up all year long for that festive feeling.
Position your tree in a spot where it can be admired indoors and out. If the weather isn't too chilly, you can take your holiday party outside and still maintain a festive atmosphere.
Mint is a fresh spin on holiday green and is perfect for celebrating at the coast. Keep the palette shore-inspired with a raffia runner, red stripes, and wine jugs filled with tropical leaves for an easy centerpiece.
Glass whale ornaments and yellow balls make for a pretty tree. Try a white tinsel table tree for easy decorating—no stand is required, and a pretty vase serves just as well.
A former customs house on the Chesapeake Bay gets a holiday spin, thanks to pops of bright red in the plaid throw and pillows and the family's nutcracker collection displayed in the window.
Painted shells, fishing floats and a woven topper make for a tree full of treasures. Use a woven basket in place of a traditional skirt for a coastal touch.
Add a festive spin to houseplants. This fiddle leaf fig tree gets a holiday makeover with just a few silver ornaments. Pretty boxwood wreaths hung with light blue ribbon echo the green theme.
A built-in cupboard opens to reveal a lively geometric print-backed bar that's decked with a simple boxwood garland and a wreath of iridescent abalone shells.
Paper lanterns are easy to assemble and light up a dock, drive- or walkway, or beach path in style.
A boxwood garland and beautiful aqua ribbon are the perfect way to liven up a staircase for Christmas.
Let the kids decorate their own space—a white tree becomes the perfect place for funky, homemade ornaments, and knitted sea-themed stockings feel right at home.
Wreaths aren't just for the front door. This Connecticut family adorned their living room windows with small rings of greenery hung with metallic ribbon. They also brought in nautical pillows in punchy red to bring further holiday cheer to the space.
In this West Palm Beach, Florida, home, the Christmas spirit is infused into every space, including the daughter's happy pink bedroom. A simple "Merry Christmas" banner adds punch, and a miniature tree and reindeer figurine on the bedside table enhance the cheer.
A simple tartan runner and a trio of poinsettias placed in mercury glass vases bring a pop of classic holiday color to this Connecticut dining room.
Holiday decorating doesn't have to be all color, all the time, though. In this entryway, cute reindeer décor blends seamlessly with the dark wood chest, and echoes the natural feel of the driftwood mirror and basket for a calm, coastal feel.
Forgo the traditional red and green and go glam this holiday. The owners of this West Palm Beach, Florida, home brought in shimmering holiday accents to their dining room table, which go perfectly with the white and soft green color palette.
Give little holiday visitors a festive treat with striped bedding in Christmas colors and a cute stocking garland.

When my blog program uploads images to my WP 1.2 site, it gets back an absolute URL to the image. Because my blog lives at a forwarded domain, this means the image URLs and the blog URL look like they resolve to different domains, which triggers all sorts of browser and firewall image filters. The end result is that many people can't see the images in my blog.
Is it possible to set WP 1.2 (or 1.5, for that matter) to return a relative URL from the upload function instead of an absolute URL?

Fleksy third-party keyboard already running on iOS 8
Apple announced that third-party keyboard support would be a major feature in iOS 8 just two days ago during its WWDC 2014 keynote, and just like that, Fleksy is already showing that it's up and running on Apple's upcoming mobile operating system. The Fleksy keyboard is actually available already on iOS, but only within the Fleksy app itself, as well as in apps that have built-in the Fleksy API. What changes in iOS 8 is that Fleksy (and other keyboards) will be able to take over as the system-wide keyboard for all applications, should a user choose to do that. You can download the Fleksy app now for a preview, and sign up to join the iOS 8 Fleksy beta.
iOS 8 introduces new time-lapse camera mode
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cameras, Cell Phones, Software
One new iOS 8 feature that wasn't announced during Apple's WWDC 2014 keynote is time-lapse video capture. When using the camera app, you can swipe over to the new Time-Lapse option, and set up your device to start taking photos at dynamically selected intervals. So, if you want to capture a sunset, a cityscape, or an animal floating by in the water, when you are all said and done, your iOS device will stich the images together into a video. iOS 8 will be available later this fall.
iOS 8 to debut third-party keyboards, here comes Swype
During its WWDC 2014 keynote, Apple announced iOS 8 will support third-party keyboards as part of a new extensions capability. You'll be able to set the new keyboard to be used system-wise, and Apple shows an image of the popular Swype keyboard system as an example. The keyboard will be sandboxed so that they can only access text input, although the user will have the ability to also grant the keyboard network access if there are more features that may require Internet access that someone may want to use.
Third-party keyboards will be available in the App Store when iOS 8 is released.
Apple shows off iOS 8 Health app & HealthKit platform
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Wearables, Corporate News, Handhelds, Software
As rumored, Apple has announced its iOS 8 health initiative during the WWDC 2014 keynote. The new Health app will work with a developer API bundle called HealthKit. In iOS 8, apps will be able to report your health data to a centralized location, allowing you to see all the information and stats from different apps all in the same area. Further, you'll be able to choose if you'd like to share health data from one app to another.
Apple announced that Nike and the Mayo Clinic are two of the first to be working on HealthKit integration, while also picturing a Withings blood pressure monitor. Not much more has been announced about the new Health app for iOS 8 yet, but we're sure we will hear more about it closer to the release of iOS 8 release.
iCloud Drive: Apple finally lets you browse and store iCloud documents on Mac, iOS, and Windows
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Corporate News, PC / Laptop, Software
We've waited a few years to get here, but Apple just announced iCloud Drive during its WWDC 2014 keynote. What is it? Well, iCloud Drive allows you to browse, view, store, and manage your iCloud documents and data in a way that sounds similar to Dropbox. Now, you can see what exactly is using your iCloud data, and you can store anything you'd like within your iCloud account--not just documents and whatever the apps you use want to store there. It's built right into the OS X Yosemite Finder, and is also available on iOS, and even Windows.
Apple reveals iOS 8: Interactive notifications, Messages improvements, and more
During it's WWDC 2014 keynote, Apple has announced iOS 8, the next major update for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. New features abound in iOS 8 that refine some things, and make others even better. One major feature is the interactive notifications. You know how you might get a text message or calendar invite when using your iPhone? You might be right in the middle of something and don't want to tap on the notification to go over to the Messages app--and in iOS 8, you don't have to. Instead, you can reply right from the notification. You can respond to calendar invites in the same way.
Apple also announced OS X during the keynote as well, which features a new visual overhaul, which was leaked prior to the event.

OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 released, includes Retina mode for external 4K displays
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, PC / Laptop, Software
This morning Apple released OS X Mavericks 10.9.3, a big update that brings a couple of major new features to the desktop operating system. First, improved 4K display support, which allows easy Retina scaling on external ultra high definition displays. We've been using this functionality for a couple of months since it was included in the beta, and it works as expected. Rather than creating a ridiculously gigantic desktop where you could barely read text, instead you can choose to scale to a Retina mode that just makes everything nice and sharp.
Others will be happy to know that OS X 10.9.3 also features the return of the ability to sync contacts and calendars between a Mac and iOS devices over USB. Hit the Mac App Store to grab the update, and take a look at the full changelog after the jump.

iPhone 6 will reportedly sport 1704 x 960 display resolution
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Rumors
It's been rumored for months that Apple will launch two larger iPhone models this year, and now 9to5Mac is jumping in with a report on the new display resolution. If correct, we should see the iPhone 6 sporting a 1704 x 960 resolution. That's way up from the current 1136 x 640 resolution found on the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s Retina displays, and would allow Apple to release the phones with a larger display while enhancing the Retina quality of its smartphones. No, it's not 1080p (that would be 1920 x 1080,) but it's close enough that at the rumored screen sizes of 4.7- and 5.5-inches, you'd be hard-pressed to notice.
The number we want to look at here is the pixels per inch (ppi), which will tell us how sharp the displays will be. 1704 x 960 at 4.7-inches results in a pixel density of 416 ppi. On a 5.5-inch iPhone, that drops a bit to 356 ppi. The iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s, comparatively, both have a 326 ppi display, so the new iPhone 6 models definitely will look better than the current devices.
iOS 8 won't be much different from iOS 7 in terms of the design and layout, so instead we can likely expect app icons that are sharper and larger on the home screen, and in-app elements to be clearer as well once developers get their apps updated for the new display. Of course, Apple will have its own first-part apps ready at launch.
Word is that we may see Apple unveil the iPhone 6 at a special event in August, but this info seems solid. If you recall, a couple of years ago we reported that the iPhone 5 would get a bump to a 4-inch 1136 x 640 display prior to it being announced.
Bleeding Edge TV 509: How to set up Nest Protect
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Features, Household, Podcasts, Videocasts, Videos

In Russia KPMG now has offices in Moscow, Saint-Petersburg, Ekaterinburg, Kazan, Krasnoyarsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Perm and Rostov-on-Don. We also have offices in 7 CIS countries. In Russia and the CIS KPMG now employs together over 4000 people.
The KPMG International Transparency Report 2015 allows clear articulation of the steps that we take to uphold our professional obligations and responsibilities and make sure our services are consistently of the very highest quality.
The survey addresses the reasons why a gap exists between the key value drivers and the company's results disclosed in business reporting.
The publication offers a detailed analysis on the complete version of the new standard, issued by IASB on 24 July 2014.
KPMG presents its fifth annual survey of the Russian insurance market.
Even though the current economic climate is creating uncertainty in relation to the potential economic growth of some countries, another 194 hotels with a total room stock of nearly 37,300 units are due to open in the region
KPMG experts surveyed the major Russian banks and concluded that even in today's tough conditions the customer focus actually generates additional value.
79 leading Russian and foreign companies from various industries took part in the survey.
Graduates of 2016 can go through the selection process at KPMG during the spring months and get a job offer before graduation!
KPMG has career opportunities both for graduates and students, and also for experienced professionals.
Stay connected with KPMG and with your former colleagues. To keep you informed on KPMG news we publilsh K-Community quarterly on-line digest. We are also happy to hold annual Alumni meetings and offer our Alumni a broad range of career opportunities.
KPMG carried out a review of the key characteristics of a wide range of various reporting options and methods available, and how they respond to the latest developments in the sustainability landscape.
This market review provides an overview of the key characteristics of sustainability reporting systems. In July 2011 we sent out an questionnaire by email. We received feedback on our questionnaire from 17 software vendors. The questionnaire was based on the GRI reporting set and provides an overview of the basic requirements for the sustainability reporting process.
Igor Korotetskiy, Head of Corporate Governance & Sustainability, KPMG in Russia and the CIS, remarked, "Although Russian companies in terms of KPMG maturity model for sustainability reporting systems are basically at a very early stage of development, we believe that this study will undoubtedly be of use to them. Performance management in sustainable development is without exception becoming increasingly vital across all sectors, and of particular importance is the quality of the reporting system that provides the sustainability data. This study represents an excellent opportunity for a company to shape its vision with respect to its reporting system, based on a thorough and independent analysis."
Key findings of the characteristics in this market review are:
KPMG is a global network of professional firms providing Audit, Tax and Advisory services. We operate in 155 countries with more than 162,000 people working in member firms around the world.

AbstractCollagen is the most widely distributed class of proteins in the human body. The use of collagen-based biomaterials in the field of tissue engineering applications has been intensively growing over the past decades. Multiple cross-linking methods were investigated and different combinations with other biopolymers were explored in order to improve tissue function. Collagen possesses a major advantage in being biodegradable, biocompatible, easily available and highly versatile. However, since collagen is a protein, it remains difficult to sterilize without alterations to its structure. This review presents a comprehensive overview of the various applications of collagen-based biomaterials developed for tissue engineering, aimed at providing a functional material for use in regenerative medicine from the laboratory bench to the patient bedside.

Max cycles in 20 minutes of:
1 Pullup/Chinup [8]
2 Pushups [9]
3 Full Squats [10]
Warmup: A couple rotations of the Grok Squat [11] and Grok Hang [12].
Progress Check: You did this one back in August [13] of last year. Today, you're going to do it again to see how your current level of training compares to the last time. Try to beat your old score!
How-to: Execute 1 pullup. Drop down and perfom 2 pushups. Get up and do 3 full squats (bringing your hips to below your knees). That's one cycle. Repeat, but this time do a chinup instead of a pullup.
Variations: If you can't do a proper pullup/chinup [8], pushup [9] or full squat [10] substitute movements from Levels 1-3 of Primal Blueprint Fitness [14] Lift Heavy Things (chapter 3).
Hat Tip: This workout is a favorite of mine. It's a minor variation on a workout that is part of the SimpleFit protocol [15].
What Are WOWs?
- Workouts of the Week (WOWs) are an optional component of Primal Blueprint Fitness [14] that add a fractal and often fun and playful quality to the basic PBF protocol.
- In most cases WOWs should only be completed by those that have mastered Level 4 of each Lift Heavy Things Essential Movement. Also, it's recommended that WOWs replace one or both Lift Heavy Things workouts or the Sprint workout (depending on the WOW) each week instead of being done in addition to the Lift Heavy Things and Sprint workouts.
- Learn more about WOWs and Primal Blueprint Fitness by getting the free eBook [14]. And access all Workouts of the Week in the WOW Archive [16].
