My friend and I are from Chicago and we are planning on going to either Nantucket or Cape Cod for the whole summer. We will be 19 and want to stay in a cheap place and find a job as a waitress, hostess, nanny, etc. We can't decide if we want to stay in Cape Cod or Nantucket. What are the main differences between the two? Also, where should we stay? Should we rent out apartments or are there other options? Anything you have to say will help us! Thanks!

Nantucket or Cape Cod for summer
Report Abuse
The Cape would have less expensive options than Nantucket. Many of the restaurants arrange rooms for their summer staff. In recent years a large per centage of the summer workers have come from Eastern Europe.You would be expected to stay through Labor Day at most jobs.
Way back when we did this on the Cape during our college days, a group of friends would rent a cottage together. However, "cheap" and summer resort don't always go together.
If you get a job as a nanny, then you would live with the family I assume.Look at the Cape Cod Times advertisements for job leads.

Lodgings are not cheap in either place.
Yo are best off looking for a job as a nanny - i f you have a lot of babysitting experience - since it will give you free lodging. Hotels sometimes provide very basic lodging for summer workers (usually 2 to a room) - but agree they would expect you to work the whole summer.
Expect nanny salary to be very modest. Wait staff earn very little but tips. And there are a ton of foreign students looking for these jobs - and willing to take very low pay.
Generally you will earn more away from a resort community - as well as getting better credentials for your real career.

Lodging will be very expensive, there really are no apartments like there are in big cities. There will be a lot of people looking for jobs there. Working as a nanny would be a good bet because a lot of families might want to go for dinner or go to the beach and have a small kid that has to stay home. Waitress positions fill up very quickly. If you guys will have any free time then stay on the Cape and you can visit Nantucket for a day or two. Hope this helps.

They are actually two very different demographics. Nantucket in season is lifestyle of the rich and famous. Jobs are extremely competetive in both the restaurant industry and the nanny industry but you will be amongst the excellent when it comes to training in the service and hospitality industry. To summer on Nantucket as the help requires a great deal of homework. But I think it would/could be a much more rewarding experience.
I did summer two years in Woods Hole as a waitress many years ago and loved the experience and memories, but I was offered a room at a friends family home.
You might be able to wing it and find more options on the cape, but the people you meet on Nantucket and the training would trump that if you can secure employment and lodging before arriving.

Cape Cod and Nantucket are hard to compare - Cape Cod is a large part of Massachusetts, about 60 miles long, with over a dozen towns, hundreds of miles of beaches, hundreds of restaurants, stores, malls, etc,etc. Nantucket is a small island with a few small villages, very expensive and isolated.
It would be FAR easier to find work and lodging on the Cape, and there would be much more to see and do on the Cape. Do Nantucket as a day trip.
Report Abuse
I can't speak for the Cape, other than I have friends who do very well at restaurants. I spent several seasons and off seasons in restaurants in Nanctucket - you'll want to start looking early.. March? Daffodil Festival in early April is the first big event. Even though some places aren't open, and prime season starts later, you'll be at an advantage if you can work the shoulder seasons ( April, and after Labor Day and/or Columbus if the place is open). Search the online classifieds. Housing isn't cheap, but you will be able to afford it. You can also get around Nantucket without a car.
Report Abuse
I live in Nantucket, and you have gotten really good advice above.
If you want a good job and make a lot of money, you should plan to be working Memorial Day weekend and work through Columbus Day. Even better is if you can stay through Christmas Stroll, the first week in December.
This means you can't go back to college in August. The reason the East Europeans and the Jamaicans and increasingly the Salvadorans get good jobs is that they stay for the whole season. They also, well the Jamaicans and the Salvadorans, work really hard. Think of this as the equivalent of taking a semester in another country only you get paid instead of paying.
Everybody who needs to make money works two jobs, maybe one waiting tables and another in a retail shop and a lot of girls add babysitting when they can get it. It will cost you about $500 to get yourselves and a car here and back, and you will need to make a car reservation months in advance, before you have a job. What if you don't get the job? Hmmmm. But the buses run until Columbus Day, and you can bike pretty much anywhere.
Why do people do this? 1. You are never more than 2 miles from a beach anywhere you are likely to live. 2. There are a million other young people out here doing the same kinds of things you are doing. There is plenty of fun. 3. It is sort of fun to observe the lifestyles of the rich and famous, and we got 'em! 4. It is very beautiful.
If this sounds good, go for it!

Return to The Taxidermy Industry Category Menu
do these results indicate business as usual or positive change?
BEFORE this election, the board made some very forward thinking decisions. The by-laws are being rewritten to be more forthright in what they're saying. Our treasurers report is as encompassing as it's ever been so that members can see how every dime we take in is spent. The competition committee has introduced a "commercial division" for the first time in an NTA show. (We have over 30 entries at this first show using the system.) The affiliation program is being talked and actively worked on not to alienate members from non-affiliated states and allow those states to participate under rules that might afford certification points to their members. Our official sponsorship program is taking off and this show brought a surprising amount of interest in that. We were approached by two separate national freight companies wanting to know how they could participate. The TERF fund has come into being a viable force to help ALL taxidermists, not just NTA members. We picked up an additional 20+ new life members this year and last night I heard several people inquire about how to do that same thing. Our new "family life-membership" is growing in numbers and offers both partners protection under our AD&D insurance as well as incentives. SCI has become an integral member of our sponsorships and Doug Lugar told me yesterday that they will continue to offer the SCI Master Measurers Course at our convention (the only other such venue is at THEIR convention in Reno). They will begin this year including NTA advertising in their publications. We have picked up several new awards in our competitions that are sponsored by our suppliers. Aside from the commercial category,we now have a division just for turkeys. We are now an active member in the CWD Alliance and have been joined by Conservation Force's Executive Director John Jackson and Coppersmith's Carol Rutkowski in hopes of keeping ALL taxidermists updated on issues involving both CITES and APHIS related problems. We drew the attention of more media this year. At this convention, we have Dan Bantley's Taxidermy Trails and Joe Kulis' Castaway Kulis production filming. The local Billing newspaper ran a full page story with pictures. National Geographic is here filming us from start to finish for inclusion in one of their programs. The biggest coup may have come from CBS. The creators of the infamous "Guns of Autumn" sent a national crew here to record our convention from registration to awards banquet to include in their CBS Sunday Morning show.
Personally, I think the current board and the oncoming one have made this an exciting time for the NTA. Several states came to this competition ready to resign their affiliations and now aren't quite so sure about it. I know of one state in particular that has always opposed affiliation but have promised to revisit the issue now with the hint that it's very close to accepting affiliation.
We will never be any better than our membership and right now, that looks very promising. At last night's General Membership Meeting we awarded $950 in checks to our members as part of a program where NON-competing attendees share a portion of our "Prize Money". We also gave away over $2000 in gift certificates from contributing sponsors.
The NTA is still the last best hope for the taxidermy industry to provide a concerted voice to a nation wide audience. It remains committed to that issue and loyal to its members. If you aren't one (not speaking to you here Bill but to others) you need to stop complaining about what we DON'T do and join us in seeing what we CAN do. Show your pride. Join the ride. If you aren't a member, try us out for a year. Join after October 1 and allow your membership to carry you through 2007. Join us in Louisville, Kentucky next year and see what you've been missing.
BTW Bill, I could use a hog seminar next year. I didn't have a single one at this show. How about you or Robert donating one. I'll give you a big seminar room and promise you a good audience. How about it?
I hope that the new ideas being put forth for the NTA will take hold. It takes people with the guts enough to buck the system to combat apathy and complacency. NEW IDEAS may fail, they may SUCCEED. Either way you HAVE to adjust the staus quo in order to continue. HOWEVER without trying our organization becomes stagnant.
I hope that this means a new era for the NTA. Good Luck.
Rob might drive down to do another one.
Jim, I am not sure if it is positive or not. Hopefully it will be but only time will tell. There is a group that has worked very hard for the changes needed in the NTA and they were not re-elected. The membership spoke here in Billings and I would hope the officers and board will continue to listen to what they are saying.
all members of a state organization still need to be members in order to affliate as a state?
ill take coffee, black with two sugars.

The Girl Scouts Got Bumped For A Beyoncé Concert A Levi Stadium
Last week the Fan Francisco 49ers cancelled a planned sleepover for the Girl Scouts, which was initially the prize for the top cookie-sellers in northern California. After the cancellation was reported and the public was not pleased, the team offered to reschedule and pay for the event, San Jose Mercury News reported.
Initially the vague reason was for a more lucrative concert, but after Beyoncé announced her upcoming Formation stadium tour during Sunday's Super Bowl, the reason was more clear than ever. Who run the world?
Girls! Money!
Despite the team's offer to reschedule, the CEO of The Girl Scouts of Northern California Marina Park did not want to further disappoint the 1,200+ girls were invited with future last minute cancelations. Fortunately the San Francisco Giants stepped up and offered their stadium instead. The 49ers will still be footing the bill.
It's not clear if Beyoncé knew that she was canceling a slumber party (she probably doesn't book her own tours). With the Girl Scouts issue seemingly solved, she's using the Formation tour to address bigger problems, launching a fund for children effected by the Flint water crisis. Bey is scheduled for a concert at Detroit's Ford Field on May 29 to support the fund, and asks fans to keep up with [email protected] account for updates on Flint residents in need.

Yin Yang is a real-time Linux file scanner that is activated whenever a file is accessed. When a file opening system call is detected, it will send the full pathname of the file to a network daemon. The network daemon will then pass the pathname of the file to a file scanner, such as an anti-virus scanner, and return the status. The status will then be reported back to the network daemon, and the response will be passed back to the system call. The default action logs a message to the system logger. The file scanner is wrapped with the original file opening system call, so it will open the file normally after the file scanning.
changedfiles is a framework for filesystem replication, security monitoring, and/or automatic file transformations--essentially any application where you'd poll files or directories and either do something to them or send them somewhere else (or both). The difference is that the kernel tells you when they change instead of you having to poll. It's an easy real time FTP push mirror to one or multiple sites. It's also a full fledged MySQL client, so you can do realtime database operations (for example, batch imports). It consists of two parts: a kernel module (works with Linux kernel version 2.4) which reports to a device whenever a file on the filesystem changes, and a daemon which runs in user space and can be configured to do almost any action when a change to a file matching the one of the patterns it looks for is reported. The kernel module is SMP safe and has been tested on Intel, PowerPC, and Alpha.
Log4php is a PHP port of Log4j, the most popular Java logging framework. It supports configuration through XML and properties files (with the same structure as log4j) and custom Configurators. File, RollingFile, DailyFile, Echo, Console, Mail, PEAR::Db, PHP error, Syslog or NT events, and socket appenders are supported. Simple, TTCC, Pattern, Html, and Xml Layouts are supported. It also supports Filters, custom Levels, and Loggers. Internal debugging can be switched on and off. Log4php can be used inside a class or inside a main/sub function.
Oak monitors syslogs from a collection of servers, and notifies the operators when problems arise. In addition to providing immediate notification of critical issues, it will also batch less critical problems into summary messages, which can be sent less often, and via any medium. It is part of the 'ktools' collection of network administration utilities.
Sysmon is a tool to monitor the state of one or more computers. It's based on a daemon and a PHP script. The first has to be runned in all boxes you need to check, and the second calls the daemon and prints the state into a nice Web frontend. The sysmond functions can be easily expanded by writing modules.
SysOrb is a client/server package that can monitor servers remotely (such as Web servers), or monitor devices on servers (such as disks, memory, load, etc.). It will alert the administrators via e-mail or pager if a server is entering a critical condition, and has its own database backend, allowing for massive collection of system statistics.
OSSP l2 is a C library providing a very flexible and sophisticated Unix logging facility. It is based on the model of arbitrary number of channels, stacked together in a top-down data flow tree structure with filtering channels in internal nodes and output channels on the leave nodes. Channel trees can be either constructed manually through lower-level API functions or all at once with a single API function controlled by a compact syntactical description of the channel tree. For generating log messages, a printf-style formatting engine is provided which can be extended through callback functions. The data flow inside the channel tree is controlled by logging message severity levels which are assigned to each individual channel.
OSSP fsl offers the syslog API otherwise provided by libc. Instead of writing to the syslogd process, it uses the powerful OSSP l2 logging capabilities. It is a drop-in link-time replacement which enables any syslog consumer to take advantage of OSSP l2 by just linking this library in before libc. The program is intended to apply OSSP l2 functionality to existing syslog-based third-party programs without the requirement to change the source code of the program.
The Bait and Switch Honeypot System combines the snort Intrusion Detection System (IDS) with honeypot technology to create a system that reacts to hostile intrusion attempts by marking and then redirecting all "bad" traffic to a honeypot that partially mirrors your production system. Once switched, the would-be hacker is unknowingly attacking your honeypot instead of the real data, while your clients and/or users are still safely accessing the real system. Life goes on, your data is safe, and you get to learn about the bad guy as an added benefit. It works with Snort 1.9.0, 1.9.1, and 2.0.2.
An easy to use, but still quite capable firewall for Netfilter/iptables.

HMMM. I already had that set to 100 but I don't see the 'living' checked
on the Attributes page. I guess that is what is confusing to me as I want
to export a GEDCOM; but right now all my living folks are exported. I guess
I will recheck to make sure I have them removed on the GEDCOM export page.

El arte de amar (edition 1996)
by Publio Ovidio Nasón, 43 a.C.-17 d.C., Francisco Crivell (Translator)
Work details
The Art of Love by Ovid
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Advice to would-be lovers and more. Some of it is quite funny.
I recommend James Michie's clever and funny English translation, which has the original Latin on the facing pages. As for Ovid's text, it has a great deal of the cleverness and charm of the Metamorphoses, and mixed in with the sometimes hilarious observations on seduction are Metamorphoses-like retellings of great myths, like the fall of Icarus, which those of us who took Latin courses in college will remember translating. However, it is a very misogynistic text, and Book One includes a substantial section justifying rape that one hopes was intended as a satire of Roman rape culture.
Forget agony aunts and tips on sex and love in glossy magazines - two millennia ago, Ovid had already been there and done that in his Ars Amatoria. Ostensibly a manual for would-be lovers, the Art of Love is also a witty and irreverent satire on a society obsessed with wealth and physical pleasure. In this amoral context, it is praiseworthy to be as promiscuous as possible, as long as you do not get caught out by any of your lovers, just as it is recommendable to seduce the maid to get to her mistress. Gifts are the surest way to a women's heart, Ovid cynically observes, and he suggests some presents which provide good value for money. All's fair in love and war, as long as one gets to enjoy the spoils.
Ovid's entertaining prose does tend to get bogged down in copious classical and mythological references, which is where translator Cesare Vivaldi's erudite notes come in handy. This edition presents the original Latin prose alongside an Italian translation.
Ovid, along with Herodotus, is one of those authorial voices that brings a new friend into your world. Both are startlingly modern to our ears: cheeky, warmly humorous and humane; a person you would like to have met and talked with. Someone on Wikipedia put it well: "Readers can follow the allusive chatter of the poet with a smile, without ever being able to be quite certain how seriously he means any of it. The tension implicit in this uncommitted tone is reminiscent of a flirt, and in fact, the semi-serious, semi-ironic form is ideally suited to Ovid's subject matter." The Humphries translation is long out of print, but it is possible to run into copies in good used book stores. It's my favourite, but each to his own in such matters. A 2001 translation is available for free. You can read it online or download it here: http://goo.gl/vHNuV
If it were published today, I would probably think of this collection of works as silly fluff. But as it's Ovid, writing from the time of Augustus Caesar, I found it quite interesting. I don't believe a whole lot in the advice he doles out for the heartsick, which spans beauty cream recipes, advice for adulterers (and cuckolds), how to make the most out of one's physical attributes, where to find partners, and, once found, how to keep the flame of their desires on 'high'.
If it were someone today bragging about their sexual exploits, I would probably roll my eyes, but I can't help but smile when Ovid boasts that "my record was set, if I remember correctly, with Corinna – nine times, all in a short summer night." On the other hand, there are some cringe-inducing passages, like "Force is all right to employ, and women like you to use; what they enjoy they pretend they were unwilling to give", though this sort of thing is certainly honest to the prevailing mindset, and explain the culture of violence against women that's existed for thousands and thousands of years.
In general, though, Ovid is not violent, and just stands for screwing around for all one's worth while one is still alive, and feels it's his mission to tell others how to go about doing that. It's not really love that he's after, at least in the sense of romantic love, so the title is a misnomer.
However with all that said, his is a voice that is at once speaking to us out of the distant past, but also of the timeless struggle between the sexes. A day out at the horse races, where he admits "You watch the races, and I watch you", silently imploring her that "That can't be any fun, with your legs hanging over and dangling; why don't you stick your toes into the railing in front?" is interesting aside from the fantasy we can all imagine in the present day, but also as the horse race with its procession of Roman Gods takes us back to a scene from everyday life from two thousand years ago.
Is he a profligate? Yes. Lecherous? Yes. Silly? Yes. Interesting? Yes.
On adultery:
"In the fields of our neighbor the grass forever is greener;
Always the other man's herd offers the richer reward."
On alcohol, when trying to forget love, from "The Remedies for Love":
"Either get thoroughly drunk, or be a teetotal abstainer:
Anything in between causes the passions to rise."
On the beauty of all women (or just Ovid's desire to bounce around), from "The Loves":
"There is no definite One whose beauty drives me to frenzy;
No: there are hundreds, almost, keeping me always in love.
If there's a modest one, whose eyes are always cast downward,
I am on fire, in a snare, set by her innocent ways.
If one is forward and brash, I rejoice that she's not country-simple;
I foresee quite a romp, bouncing around in her bed.
If she seems cold and austere, behaving like one of the Sabines,
I suspect that she craves more than she's willing to show.
If she had read any books, I am overwhelmed by her culture;
Never read one in her life? – that makes her sweet and unspoiled."
On dogs, from "The Remedies for Love", interesting to me as it seems to predate other recognized sources:
"Man's best friend is his dog."
On rest, and 'carpe diem', from "The Loves":
"For, stupid, what is sleep but old death's twin?
The fates will give us ample time for rest."
On sex advice for women, from "The Art of Love":
"Let the woman feel the act of love to her marrow,
Let the performance bring equal delight to the two.
Coax and flatter and tease, with inarticulate murmurs,
Even with sexual words, in the excitement of play,
And if nature, alas! denies you the final sensation
Cry out as if you had come, do your best to pretend."

I would like a Breast lift and Areola reduction. I am scared of getting Breast implants and have no intention of getting Breast Augmentation. What is the difference between a Benelli/Donut lift and Areola reduction? Are they one and the same? Is the cost different? I am a C cup & really interested in an areola reduction because it is inexpensive and also lifts. Thanks.
Benelli vs. Donut Lift and Areola Reduction?
Doctor Answers 18
Benelli Lift = Donut lift - both have incisions SIMILAR to Areola reduction
The difference is semantics. Allow me to explain.
AREOLAR (aka Bulls Eye) REDUCTION - two exactly CONncentric circles are drawn around your nipple. The inner circle radius will be the intended future radius of the smaller areola, the larger outer circle is placed at the junction of the areola and lighter breast skin. The areola skin donut between them is removed and the outer circle is stitched to the inner. The result - a new, reduced areola.
Benelli Lift / Mastopexy = Donut lift / Mastopexy. The areola is usually larger than it needs to be in sagging breasts. Here too, a circle is drawn precisely around the nipple allowing for an areola with a smaller diameter BUT the outer circle or ellipse is ECcentric with the upper portion of the outer circle / ellipse being cut higher than its lower portion. In this way when the outer circle is closed (usually with a belt like cinching stitch), the position of the areola is RAISED on the breast.
To read everything you need to know about BREAST LIFT / MASTOPEXY, follow the comprehensive link below -
Dr. P. Aldea
Benelli or Donut lift versus areolar reduction.
The incisions used for a Benelli or Donut lift are the same incisions that are used for an areolar reduction. This incision is called circumareolar.

New option for women wanting breast lift without implants or a vertical scar
Great question! My colleagues are correct. The differences are minimal, but essentially the same. The Benelli lift does not and cannot permanently lift low lying breast tissue. It only provides minimal lift by pulling the nipple/areola up. Hopefully, you would be a candidate for this procedure. If, however, you have a significant amount of ptosis (sagginess) the Benelli will not give you an adequate lift. There is another option if you do not desire implants or do not want visible scars. The Ultimate Breast Lift is a new technique which designs and constructs an internal cone using your own tissue to imulate an implant. It also constructs straps made from the excess skin to permanently attach the newly formed cone on to your chest muscles. This 'internal bra' provides the lift and upper pole fullness most women are looking for after loosing weight, pregnancies, and breast feeding. It's worth looking into. Best wishes,
Dr. Horndeski

Benelli Lift versus Areola Reduction?
Thank you for the question.
The Benelli breast lift involves an incisions around the areola (that allow for skin excision more so above the areola then below the areola); the difference in the amount of skin excised above and below the areola is what allows for the breast lifting to occur. Keep in mind, that this operation is indicated only for patients who require relatively minor upward movement of the nipple/areola complexes.
Areola reduction on the other hand, involves incisions around the areola removing skin equally above and below the areola; this operation serves to decrease the size of the areola and not necessarily lift the breasts.
I would suggest in person consultation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons; appropriate patient selection is key to the success of any plastic surgical procedure.

Are Benelli and Areolar reduction Breast Lifts the same thing?
Hi there-
Your question raises many important issues. First of all, and to directly answer it- there is no difference you will perceive between the two breast lift techniques you mention (as I imagine you are referring to a circumareolar breast lift when you say "areolar reduction"). The techniques are a bit different with regard to details important to the surgeon, but as far as what you would see, there are none.
Both will reduce your areola (but ANY breast lift technique would). Both will also flatten the center of your breasts and take away the central cone or area of projection.. Which is NOT always a good thing.... and brings us to the bigger issue your question raises.
It is very common, in the age of the internet, for patients to do a lot of reading and decide they want a certain technique used on themselves because of the scars they saw online (or the scars they didn't see), because it is less expensive, or because of some testimonial from a patient or surgeon online. BE CAREFUL.
It is important to realize that the reason there are so many different breast lift techniques is because not a single one of them is best for all patients. Each will produce a characteristic change in the shape of your breasts, and so the outcome of each will depend on the shape you are starting with. In other words, the decision about which breast lift technique is best for you should be made by you and your chosen Board Certified Plastic Surgeon together based on your current appearance and your desired goals- NOT by yourself alone and based on the scar you want, the price you want to pay, or other considerations. This is not something you are going to want to have to do more than once because the first operation gave you funny looking breasts...
Choose a good surgeon and listen to their advice. You'll be happier going about it this way.

Breast Lift and Areola Reduction
Almost all Breast Lifts include an Areola Reduction. A breast lift removing a donut like area around the areola is known by circumareolar mastopexy, donut mastopexy, Benelli lift and several other names. There are various modifications to improve lift and appearance, but they are all essentially similar. The amount of skin removed and whether the donut is symmetric or not determines the final appearance of the breast. The problem with this lift is that it cannot provide significant lift. The more you push this lift, the flatter the breast becomes. It, therefore, has some major limitations. Occasionally, a smaller periareolar resection and an inferior "V" excision will give a far superior result (even though the incision is longer). Only a consultation with a Plastic Surgeon can determine if you are a candidate for this type of breast lift.
Breast Lift-Donut Mastopexy
A donut mastopexy, benelli and periareolar mastopexy are pretty much the same. Areola reduction has the similiar incision that a benelli has, but it just reduces the size of the areola. A mastopexy involves lifting the NAC to a desirable level. The periareolar lift is not a very powerful lift and is most commonly performed with an implant.
If you have breast ptosis or breast drooping, you may need more than a periareolar mastopexy. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon to go over your options.

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process involving complex interactions of modified lipoproteins, monocyte-derived macrophages or foam cells, lymphocytes, endothelial cells (ECs), and vascular smooth muscle cells. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a biologically active blood-borne lipid mediator, exerts pleiotropic effects such as cell proliferation, migration and cell-cell adhesion in a variety of cell types via five members of S1P-specific high-affinity G protein-coupled receptors (S1P1-S1P5). Among them, S1P1, S1P2 and S1P3 are major receptor subtypes which are widely expressed in various tissues. Available evidence suggest that S1P and HDL-bound S1P exert atheroprotective effects including inhibition of leukocyte adhesion and stimulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in endothelial cells (ECs) through the activation of Gi signaling pathway via S1P3 and probably S1P1, although there is still controversy. FTY720, the phosphorylation product of which is a high-affinity agonist for all S1P receptors except S1P2 and act as an immunosuppressant by downregulating S1P1 on lymphocytes, inhibits atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-null mice and apoE-null mice through the inhibition of lymphocyte and macrophage functions and probably stimulation of EC functions, without influencing plasma lipid concentrations. In contrast to S1P1 and S1P3, S1P2 facilitates atherosclerosis by activating G12/13-Rho-Rho kinase (ROCK) in apoE-null mice. S1P2 mediates transmigration of monocytes into the arterial intima, oxidized LDL accumulation and cytokine secretion in monocyte-derived macrophages, and eNOS inhibition and cytokine secretion in ECs through Rac inhibition, NF-κB activation and 3′-specific phosphoinositide phosphatase (PTEN) stimulation downstream of G12/13-Rho-ROCK. Systemic long-term administration of a selective S1P2-blocker remarkably inhibits atherosclerosis without overt toxicity. Thus, multiple S1P receptors positively and negatively regulate atherosclerosis through multitudes of mechanisms. Considering the essential and multi-faceted role of S1P2 in atherogenesis and the impact of S1P2 inactivation on atherosclerosis, S1P2 is a particularly promising therapeutic target for atherosclerosis.
It is increasingly recognized that atherosclerosis is a complex chronic inflammatory disease rather than a mere phenomenon of lipid deposition on the vascular wall [
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a blood borne, lysophospholipid mediator that exerts pleiotropic activities including cell proliferation, survival, migration, cell shape and cell-cell adhesion in a variety of cell types [
Although many reports have suggested that S1P may be involved in atherosclerosis, it remained undefined whether S1P is proatherogenic or antiatherogenic and by what mechanisms S1P modifies atherosclerosis [
S1P is generated from sphingomyelin, an integral component of plasma membranes, by the sequential action of sphingomyelinase, ceramidase, and sphingosine kinases [
The major constitutive source of plasma S1P is red blood cells with additional contribution of non-hematopoietic cells including vascular endothelial cells [
Most of the diverse biological activities of S1P are mediated by five members of S1P-specific high-affinity G protein-coupled receptors, S1P1 [or S1PR1 (gene name)] − S1P5 (or S1PR5) [
S1P1 couples exclusively to Gi, whereas S1P2 and S1P3 couple to multiple G proteins but the G proteins preferred by S1P2 and S1P3 are G12/13 and Gq, respectively [
ECs, SMCs, lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages, which are involved in atherogenesis, show distinct patterns of the expression of S1P1, S1P2 and S1P3. ECs express easily detectable levels of S1P1 and S1P3, whereas S1P2 expression appears to be relatively low [
S1P was reported to positively and negatively regulate the monocyte-EC interaction through multiple mechanisms. S1P stimulated the expression of the adhesion molecules VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 in human umbilical vein ECs (HUVECs) and monocyte adhesion in Gi- and NF-κB-dependent manner [
These results suggest that when the cells are exposed to exogenous S1P, the expression level of adhesion molecules and chemokines may be determined by both the NF-κB-mediated stimulatory signal and the NO-mediated inhibitory signal. The net effects of S1P on leukocyte adhesion to ECs, chemokine production, and consequent leukocyte infiltration into the intima may be affected by differences in S1P receptor expression.
In atherosclerosis, SMCs are involved in plaque expansion and its stabilization by migrating to form a fibrous cap over the plaque and preventing it from rupture [
Circulating monocytes and monocyte-derived macrophages play a crucial role in atherosclerosis by adhering to activated ECs, transmigrating into the intima, and differentiating into macrophages and lipid-laden foam cells [
Recent studies indicated that SphK activation is involved in inflammatory responses via the action of the intracellular S1P in macrophages [
Oxidized LDL exerts cytotoxic effects to induce apoptosis in macrophages [
The circulation of mature lymphocytes between blood and secondary lymphoid tissues is a central process in the immune surveillance. The immunosuppressant FTY720 (fingolimod), a structural analogue of sphingosine, which is phosphorylated
FTY720-P acts on S1P1 and induces immunosuppression by sequestering lymphocytes, particularly T lymphocytes, in secondary lymphoid organs and decreasing circulating lymphocytes. T lymphocytes are involved in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis [
Two groups tested the pharmacological actions of FTY720 on the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis in atherosclerotic models, apoE−/− mice and LDLR−/− mice [
Recently, it was shown that in apoE−/− mice on a normal diet, hypercholesterolemia is induced by treatment with a relatively higher dose of FTY720 (3 mg/kg/day) for 12 weeks, which possibly counteracts its anti-atherogenic effect on immune cell distribution [
These studies indicate that FTY720 effectively inhibits atherosclerosis, without affecting blood lipid profiles, at the doses which inhibit T cells activity as evaluated with circulating lymphocyte numbers and T cell-specific cytokine production as markers [
Systemic administration of non-selective immunosuppressive drugs will probably not be useful for the treatment of atherosclerosis because of adverse effects including serious infections [
Three major S1P receptors, S1P1, S1P2 and S1P3, are expressed in ECs, SMCs and monocytes/macrophages. Among these, S1P2 but not S1P1 or S1P3 in SMCs and ECs mediate inhibition of chemoattractant-directed cell migration [
We have studied the role of S1P2 in atherosclerosis by using S1P2-deleted and non-deleted apoE−/− mice [
Our previous study using β-galactosidase (LacZ)-knockin mice at the S1P2 locus, in which LacZ gene expression is driven by endogenous S1P2 promoter, showed that S1P2 is expressed in ECs and SMCs of normal blood vessels in a variety of organs and the bone marrow (BM) [
The deletion of S1P2 has a substantial impact on macrophage functions including cholesterol accumulation, cytokine production and migration (
S1P2−/− ECs display altered phenotypes compared with wild-type ECs (
S1P2 deletion induces alterations of the phenotypes in SMCs (
The lesions in S1P2−/− mice may be stabilized compared with S1P2+/+ mice because of a lower macrophage density and higher SMC density in lesions of S1P2−/− mice. S1P2−/− macrophages display resistance to apoptosis induced by TNF-α and cycloheximide. Stimulated survival of S1P2−/− macrophages may also favor plaque stabilization although the relationship between macrophage apoptosis and atherogenesis is also complex [
These observations in S1P2-deleted mice raised the intriguing possibility that pharmacological S1P2 blockade could afford therapeutic efficacy for atherosclerosis. JTE-K1 is a selective S1P2 antagonist [
Current therapy for human atherosclerotic lesions focuses on reducing the concentration of plasma LDL-associated cholesterol in the blood mainly by administering HMG CoA reductase inhibitors and other drugs [
In genetic mice models for atherosclerosis, pharmacological blockade of chemoattractant receptors that are expressed in monocytes, including leukotriene B4 receptor and RANTES receptors, effectively inhibited plaque formation [
In contrast to S1P1 and S1P3, S1P2 is a clearly proatherogenic receptor to act on the three cell types, macrophages, ECs and SMCs [
S1P receptor signaling. S1P1 couples exclusively to Gi, whereas S1P2 and S1P3 couple to multiple G proteins. The G proteins preferred by S1P2 and S1P3 are G12/13 and Gq, respectively. Gi couples to stimulation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt/Rac pathway and Ras-mitogen activated protein kinase pathway, G12/13 couples to activation of Rho pathway, mediating Rac inhibition, NF-κB activation and PTEN stimulation. Gq mediates stimulation of phospholipase C (PLCβ) pathway. Nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in ECs is fully activated by Gi- and Akt-mediated phosphorylation of eNOS in concert with a Gq-mediated, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent activation. The straight and dotted lines show the stimulatory and inhibitory regulations, respectively.
Role of S1P2 on atherosclerosis. S1P2 exerts the stimulatory effects on atherosclerosis by affecting monocytes/macrophages, ECs, and SMCs. S1P2 mediates inhibition of eNOS and stimulation of cytokine secretion in ECs; transmigration of monocytes, cytokine secretion and cholesterol accumulation in macrophages; inhibition of proliferation and migration into the intima of SMCs.

Gliding Air dream interpretations
Air Dream Explanation
— Standing in the
in a dream means being honored or acknowledged by a governor, though it will not last. If one has exaggerated hopes, arrogance, pride, or if he is a self-centered individual, then his floating in the
represents mere disturbed dreams. Walking in the
without ascending or descending in a dream means receiving dignity, honor and earning lawful money. If one does not qualify for it, then walking in the
in his dream means travels. Hanging in the
between the heavens and the earth in a dream represents a concerned heart and uncertainty about what to do! Falling in the
in a dream means despair or loss of status in wakefulness.
Air Dream Explanation
— Sitting in the
in a dream means arrogance and self deception regarding religious opinions. Building a house up in the
or placing a mat in the
or raising a tent in the
means death of a sick person, and what is built in this case is one's own coffin. If a governor sees that dream, it means his dismissal from his office or his death. Seeing that dream after a wedding or after having marital relations with one's wife means mistrust and loss. It also means involvement in an uncouth action, lacking knowledge of the Holy Book and prophetic traditions, because what one has built lacks a foundation.
Air Dream Explanation
— Flying in the
in a dream may mean travels. Flying with wings in a dream has stronger connotations and is safer. The wings here will represent money or power. Swimming in the
means benefits or business travels. If the
looks opaque in one's eyes, so he cannot see the skies in his dream, it means problems with one's superior. If one does not have a boss, then it means that he may lose his sight. If all the people witnessed the
opaque or red in the dream, then it means a major calamity and a trying adversity. (Also see Ascending in the Skies; Flying)
Air Dream Explanation
— Falling in a dream also means relief from distress, wantonness, or satisfying one's needs. Clear, fresh and pure
in a dream represents a good time to take a trip for business or pleasure.
in a dream also represents one's desire and passion. Thus, disobeying one's mind, desire and passion in a dream means entering the heavenly paradise. Following one's desires in a dream means negligence of once religious duties. Standing up in the
and speaking loud in a dream means blessings, favors, money, honor and fame.
Floating in the
Dream Explanation
— (See Air)
Walking in the
Dream Explanation
— (See Air)
Air blower Dream Explanation
— (See Bellows; Fan)
Wind Dream Explanation
— Wind or
, in Arabic, is almost an homonym for whim and the verb "to fall" (in a precipice). The interpretation of dreams involving
or wind is especially based on this consideration. Strong winds mean terror and havoc. The breeze is a good augury.
Bellows Dream Explanation
— (Air blower; Blacksmith) If a bellows is made from wood in one's dream, it means loss of dignity, demotion or loss of property. Owning a bellows in a dream means acquiring vast control and sovereignty if one qualifies for that. Otherwise, a bellows in a dream means benefits and blessings. Seeing a bellows blowing fire in a dream means completing a project, satisfying a need, reaching one's goal or earning money. If the bellows are not in use, or if they are not blowing
into the fire, then they signify distress, adversities and trouble.
Wing Dream Explanation
— (See Air; Arm)
Flying Dream Explanation
— Flying near a flock of birds in a dream means associating, living or working with unknown people. If an evil person sees that, it means a bad omen, and for a fisherman it means sufferings or death. Flying in the
at a low altitude in a dream means taking a short trip. If one sees himself flying at will and ceasing to fly at will in a dream, it means easing of his burdens and expectation of great benefits to come his way. Seeing oneself in a dream flying upside-down means evil happening. If a sick person sees himself flying in the
in a dream, it means that he will die from his illness.
Bier Dream Explanation
— • Being lifted, placed on a bier, and borne on men's shoulders: Promotion, power, influence, and tyranny. Will ride on people's necks and have as many followers as were seen carrying the dreamer in the dream.
• Seeing oneself on a bier without anybody carrying it: Will go to jail.
• A ruler, a chief, a merchant, or a manufacturer seeing himself on a bier rolling or
on the soil: Will board a ship.
• Carrying a bier: (1) If eligible, will govern a province as prominent as the people marching in the funeral procession. (2) Illicit gains. (3) Will intercede in favour of a religiously corrupt person.
• A bier flying and people holding to it: (1) A chief or a scholar will die without anybody knowing about it. (2) A great man will die in foreign land, during the pilgrimage or in a battle for the sake of Allah (Jihad). (3) If the dead man on the bier was identified, it would be him in particular.
Wind Dream Explanation
— If one sees a huge tornado or a tropical storm carrying people, trees, homes, or cattle in the
to scatter them over its path of destruction, then it represents a major plague, or a calamity affecting that region. Poisonous winds or polluted
in a dream represent a feverish illness. A stormy wind accompanied with thunder in a dream represents a tyrant. If the wind carries someone from one place to another in the dream, it means that he may travel there, but he may never return to his homeland. A gentle wind or a breeze in a dream represents grace and blessings for the people and the land. A storm of dust in a dream represents destruction in the land. However, winds in a dream always represent tidings from Allah Almighty.
Cupping Dream Explanation
— The use of a cupping glass from which the
has been exhausted, to draw blood to the surface of the skin-Collins).
Cloth Dream Explanation
— (Fabric) Weaving a cloth or hanging it in the open
in a dream means undertaking a long journey. (Also see Wrapping)
Weaving Dream Explanation
— (Cloth) Weaving a cloth or hanging it in the
in a dream means going on a journey.
Stork Dream Explanation
— This bird symbolizes sociable people, but there is a difference between seeing storks flocking together and scattered. In the former case, they refer to thieves and highwaymen or enemy warriors or to cold weather and
turbulence. Scattered, they are a good sign for whoever plans to travel or to get married. They are known to appear sometime in winter, then disappear, then appear again. Dreaming of scattered storks also means that an absent one will come back.
Jump Dream Explanation
— • Jumping and floating in the
and moving at will, in whatever direction and to whatever length the dreamer wants: (1) A beneficial trip. (2) Triumph. (3) Desires will be fulfilled.
• Failing to reach the desired destination: A change for the worse.
• Using a stick or a perch to jump: That stick or perch symbolizes an extremely powerful person or a strong asset on whom the dreamer could rely in whatever he aims for.
Ashes Dream Explanation
— If one sees himself blowing
into cold ashes in a dream, it means that he will engage in futile undertaking. Ashes in a dream also denote sadness, sore-eyes or heedlessness. Ashes in a dream also mean quelling the fire of war, suppressing upheaval, or attaining peace. Ashes which are collected from baking in a dream represent charity, or curiosity. (Also see Coal)
Ocean Dream Explanation
— Standing over seawater in a dream means attaining something one did not seek. Walking in the
above the seawater in a dream represents the perbond good intentions, his clarity, faith and certitude. If a sick person sees himself taking ablution in seawater in a dream, it means that he will recover from his illness, or it could mean payment of one's debts and relief from worldly pressures.

After today's Wild Card games, the playoff picture will be complete. We know how the local media thinks (or hopes) the Nats will fare, but what are other people saying?
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com says the Nats will win the World Series. "The Nationals will win the World Series. It is the year of the Cinderella, after all."
The New York Post is predicting the Nationals will lose the World Series to Detroit. "The Nationals will fail the NL's mission to record its first World Series three-peat since the 1979 Pirates, 1980 Phillies, 1981 Dodgers and 1982 Cardinals pulled off four in a row."
USA Today is saying the Nats may fall flat. "The Nationals have had a great year, and Davey Johnson has done an incredible job, but a good pitching staff can bust them inside and they won't hit at all — not enough quick bats. Gio Gonzalez is an excitable guy and needs to be under control in Game 1 or this could unravel in a hurry."
The Seattle Times has a more positive outlook on the Nats. "And this year, not only will Washington bring the first World Series action to the nation's capital since 1933, they'll win it."
Pregame.com has the Nats at 5/1 odds to win the World Series, tied with the Reds in odds and behind the Yankees at 4/1.
* The Nats special section is in today's paper. Go get it.
* Trent Williams and Fred Davis are earning back their teammates' trust.
* Tracee Hamilton says the Wizards are getting a fresh start.
* The Cardinals and Braves have different opinions about the wild card format.
* The Wizards have some options at small forward.
Thanks for all the love after earning offensive rookie of the month. Now show my teammates some for helping make it happen
— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) October 4, 2012
Trent Williams, on how he's overcoming last year's suspension:
"I made a mistake, and I kind of use it as a learning experience. Of course, I alienated my team for four games and wasn't able to be there. I was a captain at the time, and that made me feel even worse. This year I'm just trying to prove to them that I've grown up a lot and that's not me anymore."

It will be obvious to most people that a condition attached to a donation to an institution such as a museum whereby the donor has the capacity to name, identify or otherwise categorize exhibits is unacceptable. It would be unworkable administratively and unfair to other exhibits or exhibitors. Some may say it is an opening for bribery or ransom.
Most importantly, however, it has yet to be proven that "genocide" as suggested in this case took place.
Before chiefs Murray Clearsky and Derek Nepinak move forward in this round of histrionics and national divisive tactics, they would be well advised to identify those whom they believe to be perpetrators of the "genocide," whether they be governments, government agencies or others, and through irrefutable evidence sue those they deem responsible through our well-established courts of law.

People in Queensland, South Australia and Tasmania are used to getting most of their news from one media outlet: the local newspaper.
The one-newspaper towns are the foundation on which the
Until now, they have at least been able to get some diversity in opinion between city publications as well as the community newspapers.
News Ltd journalists across the country yesterday were still coming to terms with the new arrangements likely to emerge from the "one newsroom" approach espoused by News Ltd boss
Although there is continuing uncertainty about the job losses that have yet to be announced, there was confusion about how the centralisation would affect the communities in which the newspapers operated.
Ipswich mayor
"It will be at risk," Mr Pisasale said. "What makes a community is the sense of community and that's what we fear we're going to lose.
"If we don't have a mechanism for local stories, whether it's the local lady who turns 100 or community events, the bond will be lost."
Townsville deputy mayor Vern Veitch, whose only local daily newspaper is the News Ltd-owned Townsville Bulletin, said it would be difficult to develop relationships with journalists who did not live in the local community.
"I'd be very concerned about losing the regional flavour and local content as well as the loss of regional jobs," he said.
"There's not much competition here in the newspaper business, so it's already hard to get your message across."
Western Downs Regional Council mayor Ray Brown, who oversees the development of billions of dollars of coal seam gas in south-west Queensland, said he was concerned about the planned restructures of news outlets.
"Local content is extremely important to our community and any cuts in getting information to the public are a concern for us," he said.
"It is crucial, with all the enormous energy investment in the region, that we can still utilise the local press to convey information to the public.
"We certainly wouldn't want any of that to be centralised."
Mayor Steve Perryman, from the South Australian border down of Mount Gambier, has experienced first-hand the depletion of media across most forms and says further cuts could cause problems.
"There has been a watering-down of local content across the board and it does make it harder," he said. "It's something the community laments.
"What you have now is journalists trying to cover things without knowing anything about the area – and when they do cover it, it's usually old news."
He said the local television and radio stations had both cut back.
Billionaire mining magnate Clive Palmer, who has previously complained about the lack of diversity of opinion in Queensland media, said it would only get worse under News Ltd's plans.
"If you don't have diversity there is a big risk. There isn't much diversity now and there will be not too much later too," he said.

Damion Schubert made an interesting statement during the last Star Wars: The Old Republic livestream. He proclaimed that although the designers don't want to completely eliminate vertical progression, the stats between the upper tiers of PvP armor will begin to flatten out.
As many of you are aware, I am not a fan of vertical progression in MMOs overall, especially in PvP. I have issued many gripes and even stood on a soapbox proclaiming how it's bad. It's not that I don't want players to have a sense of gain as they play the game, but a purely vertical progression system (in which stats only ever get bigger) invites the dreaded power creep. And as I said on my soapbox, power creep is not good for players or designers. So when Schubert talked about flattening out stats, I was excited. Finally, SWTOR is stepping away from a vertical progression system!
Update 1.6 brings multiple changes to PvP specifically. The new warzone, Ancient Hypergates, is probably the biggest. But for today, the most important change is the elimination of the Battlemaster tier of PvP gear and the introduction of Elite War Hero gear. What does this do to the overall feel of PvP, and are these changes enough to soften the heart of the MMO gamer?

→ Pregnancy & Baby
| Pregnancy & Baby
First-time expectant parents go through a rite of passage when it comes to buying things for their babies. They enter a huge baby-only store, such as Babies-R-Us, and find themselves staring wide-eyed at hundreds of baby-only products on display. It can be dizzying!
It is estimated that between pregnancy and the end of baby's first year, U.S. parents and parents-to-be average between $9,000 and $12,000 (and sometimes more) equipping, diapering, dressing and feeding their precious offspring. Sales for the baby-product industry — including diapers, toys and baby bath and cosmetic supplies —exceed $14 billion annually.
Shopping while nest building can throw a monkey wrench into a couple's budget. The biggest task they face is ferreting out what they and their babies really need, rather than reaching for things that are simply cute and whimsical but not essential. Second-time parents are savvier about what's needed and what can be left in the store.
To help novice parents, here are 10 baby must-haves:
1. Car seat. A rear-facing infant-only seat will serve most babies for the first nine months or so of life. A convertible seat will face rearward for babies up to one year of age (or longer), and turn around to face forward for tots for several more years of use.
2. Crib. Rather than a convertible crib that morphs into a toddler bed, loveseat and double bed frame, choose a simple crib model with one lowering side and a mattress support that can be lowered as baby grows.
3. Mattress. Whether innerspring or foam, firmness is the most important quality. The advantage of foam mattresses is that they are lighter weight, which makes sheet changing easier.
4. Baby bedding. Stock up on three or more fitted sheets, several mattress pads, plus two top sheets and crib-size blankets. Launder everything in advance with fragrance-free detergent to remove perfumes, sizing or other chemicals that could irritate baby's skin or nose.
5. Diapers. The choice is between disposables and fabric reusables. While disposables cost more over the long haul, a supply of reusables is a bigger upfront investment. If you're going the disposable route, have several packages on hand in the newborn size. Or, choose a dozen reusables with moisture-resistant outer pants that can expand as your baby grows.
6. Diapering equipment. A diaper-changing pad that fastens to the top of a chest or a dedicated changing table will simplify the 2,000 diaper changes parents face in the future. You'll also need an odor-resistant diaper pail for disposables, or a roomy pail for storing soiled fabric diapers until washday. Both types need a toddler-proof, locking lid.
7. Baby clothes. Newborns quickly outgrow tiny baby clothes, so buy just a few basics in that size. Include four or five tiny T-shirts with large neck openings, since babies hate having clothes pulled over their heads, and three or four long nightgowns with front snaps and elasticized skirts that make diapering easier at night. Other clothing items should be one or two sizes larger.
8. Baby bottles. Four small, four-ounce bottles with nipples are useful whether the baby will be bottle-fed or breastfed. Look for bottles that have a statement on their packaging that they are free of bisphenol-A and phthalates – chemicals used in plastic processing that are suspected of being unhealthy for babies.
9. Bathing supplies. Baby won't need a bath until her umbilical cord falls off, which may take weeks. Mild baby soap and shampoo will be needed, but skin lotions won't. Extra-soft towels are useful, and a small baby bathtub may make bathing easier.
10. Useful extras. These purchases don't fall into the "necessity" category, but could be considered comfort items: a miniature crib or bassinet for keeping baby by your side during the early months; a neutral-colored diaper bag that both Mom and Dad can use; a box of baby wipes and a wipe warmer; a soft front carrier that straps on parents' shoulders for carrying and soothing the baby.
The most important thing to remember when shopping for your baby is that the stores will still be open after your baby arrives. So don't feel pressured to have everything on board before you go to the hospital.

Kostya has also written a number of articles for Chess Life magazine and Chess Life Online, and is currently an instructor for Chess University.

Kostya's tournament accomplishments include winning the 2014 Southern California Closed Championship, as well as achieving two IM norms. He currently resides in Mountain View, CA, and his plans are to complete his IM title and then pursue the GM title.
Coaching Services
I am currently accepting new private students interested in trying out a few lessons before establishing a longer commitment. I'm looking for students motivated and dedicated to improving their game, those that are willing to study outside of our sessions. My process with each student is the following:
- Initial evaluation of goals/expectations
- Detailed assessment of chess strengths & weaknesses
- Developing an individual plan for training/studying
- Creating 1-month, 3-month, and long-term benchmarks
- Analyzing all tournament games
- Periodic re-evaluation and assessment of level
I believe in working on all aspects of the game with each student, which includes:
- Opening understanding
- Opening theory/preparation
- Middlegame planning & execution
- Calculation
- Endgame understanding
- Endgame theory
- Practical chess play (prophylaxis, bluffing, etc.)
Coaching Philosophy
I believe that a coach's job is not only to instruct, but to develop a individualized training regimen that suits each students' needs. I also believe that a proper coach should utilize the variety of training resources available and guide the student to using them most effectively. Finally, a coach should motivate the student to work and improve their game as much as possible, in order for the student to make rapid progress and reach their full potential. With every student I work with, my focus is not only on teaching them as much chess as possible, but also teaching them how to improve the different aspects of the game, i.e. how to train calculation, how to properly learn an opening, how to improve middlegame/endgame play, and so on.
If you're interested in scheduling your first lesson, please send me a message.

One of the major advantages of being dyslexic, as I am, is that Chaucer is
