The Wyoming Cowboys wrapped up fall camp on Saturday morning with a two-hour practice in War Memorial Stadium. Saturday's practice was structured to put the Cowboy offensive and defensive units in game-like situations against scout team units simulating the offense and defense of next Saturday's season-opening opponent Northern Illinois.
Wyoming kicks off the 2016 season at home on Saturday, Sept. 3 against the NIU
Huskies at Wyoming's War Memorial Stadium. The game is scheduled for an
8:30 p.m., Mountain Time start.
Fans interested in purchasing tickets to 2016 Wyoming Cowboy Football games may: go online at www.GoWyo.com/tickets; email email@example.com; call the UW Athletics Ticket Office at (307) 766-7220; or stop by the ticket office on the west side of UW's Arena-Auditorium.
Following Saturday's practice Cowboy head coach @Craig announced the team captains for 2016 as selected by their teammates. On offense, senior offensive lineman Chase Roullier was selected a team captain for the second consecutive season. He was joined by redshirt sophomore quarterback Josh Allen and senior tight end Jacob Hollister. On defense, senior middle linebacker Lucas Wacha was also named a team captain for the second straight year. He was joined by sophomore strong safety Marcus Epps . For Allen, Hollister and Epps it was the first time they had been named a team captain at Wyoming.
"I feel good about those guys," said Bohl. "Kind of a sprinkling of some upperclassmen and some underclassmen. We've had good leadership and good focus as a football team, and we appreciate these guys for leadership."
Bohl explained after Saturday's practice why he and his staff structured the practice as they did, rather than conducting a final scrimmage of fall camp.
"Today's format was game-like situations. There was hardly any full contact," said Bohl. "We tried to create as many scenarios and situations that will either occur in the first game or at some time during the season. We had coaches on headsets and had a full officiating crew here to make it more of a game situation than a practice.
"I thought for the most part we were pretty clean in our execution today, but some of the things I was disappointed in were we had a couple misalignments and a couple illegal shifts that we need to clean up.
"On a positive note, I thought Josh (Allen) threw the football well today. He was on point, and I think we've got a pretty capable group of wide receivers.
"Defensively, the things we were looking for was having all the guys in the right spots. We didn't take anyone down to the ground. We just wanted to get the right run fits in and things like that, and we worked exclusively against Northern Illinois offensive schemes.
"We've had quite a bit of live work this fall. There was no 1s versus 1s today -- it was strictly scout team work. As a coach, you always have a choice to go full contact or not, but there so many situations that you want to cover before the season and we thought it was important to cover those special situations again today."
Highlights for the offense in Saturday's practice were two touchdown connections between Allen and senior wide receiver Tanner Gentry . Allen hit Gentry on a 42-yard TD across the middle and later connected on a 16-yard touchdown pass.
Defensively, Wacha had a 40-yard interception return for a touchdown and junior cornerback Rico Gafford intercepted two passes for touchdowns of 19 and 24 yards.
Senior linebacker Eric Nzeocha made two big plays, forcing a fumble and recovering an on-side kick for the receiving team.
Bohl also commented on the play of his special teams in Saturday's post-practice meeting with media.
"I think the kicking game was a little bit of a mixed bag today," said Bohl. "We had some good kickoffs, but we missed a field goal. I was a little bit disappointed in that. Austin Conway did some good things in the return game."
A number of key Cowboy veterans, who had missed time during fall camp due to muscle pulls, all returned to practice this week. Those included senior wide receivers Gentry and Jake Maulhardt, junior cornerback Robert Priester and sophomore free safety Andrew Wingard. Bohl did report to media that no injuries were suffered during Saturday's practice.
"There are a lot fewer guys out there in red shirts (red jerseys indicate injured players), and that is part of what you do as a head coach is make sure by the time you get to that first game that you have pretty much your full lineup. I don't see anybody who won't be available for our first game. We certainly have another week of practice, and we're going to have a full-padded practice on Monday. But I'm in hopes that we are going to be very healthy going into the season opener."
When asked if there were other individuals who stood out in the 24th and final practice of fall camp, Bohl said, "I thought Jake Hollister did some nice things from a receiving standpoint, and Tanner Gentry did, as well. Ryan Cummings (junior offensive tackle) is improving his game. I thought he was on point with his performance. The other guy who showed up a lot was Rico Gafford, who had two picks that would have been pick sixs."
The Cowboys' third-year head coach was also asked if there were some newcomers who he anticipated playing this coming season and not redshirting. A couple of obvious ones are true freshman place-kicker Cooper Rothe and true freshman offensive guard Gavin Rush, who are both expected to begin the season as starters.
"I'll probably forget a couple guys, but Rico Gafford, even though he's not a
freshman is a newcomer to our program as a junior-college player, and he will
play this coming season. Alijah
Halliburton (freshman safety) is a guy we'll probably be playing in some
situations. John Okwoli is another freshman as a receiver who we
think is going to see the field. Cassh
Maluia (freshman linebacker) is going to be one of those guys who will
"I'm remiss in that I've probably left someone out, but it's not as many as what we had last year."
Finally, Bohl was asked to assess if he was able to accomplish what he and his staff wanted to during fall camp, and he was asked how he felt about his team as they approach the start of the regular season one week from today.
"I like our team," said Bohl. "We're still a work in progress, but there is progress that has been made. I think the attention to detail for fall camp has been good. We're still young, but the guys are more focused, more bought in.
"I think we have more athleticism. I'm really pleased with the
progression of our quarterback play, and I think that is going to be a big
element to our offense along with our running backs -- we've seen good things
from both Brian
Hill and Shaun
"It was great to see Andrew Wingard out there today in the secondary.
He's been full speed this week. So to answer your question, yes I'm
"We're making progress as a football team, and I'm real excited to be their head football coach as we move into the season. There is no doubt there will be some bumps, but it is important that we continue to move forward. The attitude has been great from our players, and it is the first fall camp that I have been through that we have had zero people quit."
Following Saturday's practice, the Cowboys will have Sunday off before moving into the first week of regular-season practice preparation for the season opener next Saturday, Sept. 3.

Join Chris Orwig for an in-depth discussion in this video Removing a garment strap, part of Photoshop CS3 Portrait Retouching Techniques.
In this movie we are going to be doing some cloning and some patching and healing in order to remove some of the larger blemishes that we are noticing. Let's create a new layer Shift Command N on a Mac, Shift Ctrl N on a PC and we call this layer Retouch. And next, we will select the Clone Stamp Tool, let's zoom in the top of the image here and we are going to go ahead and sample an area and just paint over that little gap up there that looks fine. Next, we are going to navigate down here to the strap yet notice the little problem with the nose here.
I am going to select the Healing Brush and that looks a little strange right there, I need to diminish that a tidbit as well as the shadow something I missed on my Retouching, let's look at it before and after, okay that looks nice. Alright we are now ready to work on the strap, how the heck are we going to do that? That looks complicated, doesn't it. Well it actually won't be too bad, believe it or not. Let's try and give this one a shot. Let's merge everything to a new layer, Shift Option Command E now that we have this new layer we will call this layer Merged.
Next we are going to select the Quick Select Tool, press W on the keyboard, it's a great tool. What you can do is paint along an object and create a selection, in this case we have a pretty nice selection of the strap and I am going to go out to the shadow a little bit here as well so I am painting just outside of the strap. If I have a problem area as I do in a couple of places, I will fix that. Then I will hold down the Option key on the Mac, Alt key on a PC and paint away the problem area so bring that back in.
This isn't going to be a perfect way to remove this but nothing is in Photoshop right, take some detail work, all we want is a good start, that's all we want. Okay. That's a pretty good start, decent selection of that. Couple of other things I would like to do to add to this selection would be up top so I am going to grab the Lasso Tool, hold down the Shift key and add to the selection up here. Remember Shift with one of the selection tools is add, Option key on the Mac, Alt key on a PC is minus, add a little bit more over here, alright.
Couple of rough spots but I think those will blend in okay because we are going to use the Patch Tool. Alright now that we have a decent selection of that we could have done that another way but hey that was pretty good way to do it. We are going to go ahead and select the Patch Tool. We are going to make sure we are on source and make sure we have a nice source to sample from and we are going to drag it over here to this nice patch of skin and let go. And then let's press Command H on a Mac, Control H on a PC for a starting point, that's pretty decent. So let's go to select Deselect.
Next we are going to make a couple more selections here to clean up the rest of this. So we are going to press Command D to deselect, Ctrl D on a PC, Command D on Mac. We are just going to go ahead and apply this patch technique to a number of different areas here, I want to disguise if anything was ever there. Alright so far so good and I think we are going a good direction before and after. Let me just take a look at that, evaluate that for myself, hey I think we are doing well.
And I am making selections and then pressing Command D to deselect, zoom out make sure I am not tricking myself into thinking that looks good. Couple of problem areas, I see some brightness values that are little bit problematic, nothing too big, nothing we can't handle right, alright before and after. Now we are in good shape. The next thing we need to do is to clean up the neck area so let's zoom in on that and deconstruct what's happening here.
We will turn off this layer for a second, we have this nice line, it's actually soft here, it becomes hard on this side, a little bit harder there, nice soft line up there with the shadow so we are going to need to pay attention to our shadows and whatnot and then as we did this it just became pretty messy, doesn't look too good. So here is what we are going to do, we are going to turn off our merge layer, click in the retouch layer and merge everything to the top Shift Option Command E. That will merge everything to the topmost layer. Next thing we are going to do is make a selection with our Lasso Tool, press L for the Lasso Tool and make a selection and this portion of the image here and then press Command J on a Mac, Ctrl J on a PC.
That will copy that selection to a new layer and let's bring that down, use the arrow keys to nudge it around a little bit, make sure this is on top of our merge layer so we can see how we are doing, here is our before and after. Hey that could work couldn't it, getting the right spot there, Command T to free transform and right at that point there and then we just want to straighten that line a little bit so it connects.
Hey that was too far Command T, just a little tiny bit there and one more try. Press Enter to return there and I think that's looking good. We want to click the Add Layer Mask icon. And we are going to paint with black, our brush nice and soft just going to mask this in here, smooth things out a little bit, okay a little bit of a transition on this side, little bit of the shadow transition over there, let's see how we are doing before and after so far so good.
Let's lower the opacity. So this blends in really nicely and softens off over here on this edge before and after and then mask it away over here and before and after. Let's zoom out a little bit, see if this is looking right, looking as it should, here is hour before and here is hour after. Yeah I would say hey that's looking pretty good, maybe a little bit more we need to clean up right, more problems with the neck so let's create a new layer, click on the new layer icon, select the Clone Stamp tool.
What I am going to do with the Clone Stamp tool is take my opacity down to about 40% here and then I am going to Option click right on this line and I am going to bring up some of the softness of this line. So I want to bring up some of the tone that we have here, take away some of the problems that happened as result of the Patch Tool, go from both sides top and bottom so bring down a little bit of the shadow as well. Let's see our before and after, before and after, very nice, need to lower the opacity on that to get the blend in really nice before and after just subtly bringing in those two areas.
Now we need to work on this part of the neck up here as well. You have a good portion of the neck there so minus while I use it, let's use the same layer too, little bit smaller brush here, hold down the Option key and then go up here and let's begin to paint this in, take up the opacity. Let's go all the way up, alright so we are just extending the shadow to try to create that edge definition on the neck there and then we will reduce it just a little bit as well.
Alright create one more layer and we are going to go Clone Stamp 100% now, 100 percentile. We are going to paint in this line on the neck, believe it or not see if we can get away with it, see if we can do what has never been done before. To bring it a little bit of texture underneath there, that is too much. I can always press Command Z right, Command Z on a Mac, I should say Ctrl Z on a PC, okay.
Let's see how our neckline is doing. I like it. I like it. Of course the opacity is a little bit too high so we are going to lower that so it blends in and zoom out a little bit. There is a couple little problem areas but we are going in a good direction before and after, before and after. One of the problem areas that I notice on this is the shape right there. So I am going to select my layer with the cloning on it, press Command T on a Mac, Ctrl T on a PC and then I am going to Ctrl Click inside the free transform area and choose warp and I am going to bend this so that it fits that line a little bit better, press Return to apply before and after, hey that worked well, let's zoom out before and after, there is that line we have brought in.
Couple other areas we need to work on right there, that line isn't quite consistent so I am going to create one more layer and with the Clone Stamp Tool, nice and small, nice low opacity, just going to bring some brightness in on top of that line like a little more straight here right. Taper it off a little bit throughout the whole line and then lower the opacity.
Let's zoom out and see how we are doing. It looks like it needs to come back up, doesn't it. Alright the line though needs to come down, that's just too strong, too strong, too much for me. And the top one now can't come down, now that I lowered the opacity there I can lower the opacity here and we are going in a great direction. Now you may be wandering why isn't Chris naming his layers here. Well I am not naming my layers there because one of the things I like to do when I am doing something like this is to select all of these layers and group them.
So I am going to press the Shift key and click on all of those layers and then press Command G on a Mac, Ctrl G on a PC, look at my before and after and as I do that, I say hey I am going in a pretty good direction, it's a really nice way to be able to see those before and afters. Last thing that I want to do on this is the shadow I think is a little bit too intense up top. So I am going to create one more layer in this group and I am going to select my Clone Stamp Tool, blend mode to lighten, nice low opacity. You know I am just going to lighten this up, up top here, lighten it up all the way for that matter.
I am going to try to do this pretty subtly so I am going to work it from each side, going to work on the structure the face side because I don't want it to have that little divot and slowly remove this little by little, lower the opacity to bring that back. So we can dial in exact amount that we want there. I think it should be right about there. We don't want that rankle to be too strong, do we. Okay overall before and after, we have now successfully removed that strap from the image and we are good to go to the next movie.

I was in the mood for some serious real men hardcore fucking videos and cruised over to SexGaymes to see what was available. Man, they've got some hot action going on in their newest gymnasium movie, 'Hardcore Muscle'ť, in the Gaymes Channel featuring Francois Sagat, Hussein and Jay! They're all hung like horses with perfect bubble butts, and I've been waiting for SexGaymes to bring out the promised hardcore video with Parisian native Sagat since they first put up his solo set a few months ago.
A sweaty and muscle popping workout in the gym turns into a three-way cock press frenzy. Check out the photos I grabbed of these guys as they rim, suck and fuck on the weight bench. And as with all SexGaymes videos, the camera coverage is fantastic, getting you up close and into the action.

The Stage Awards 2017
This year's winners were unveiled at The Stage Awards, held at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane on January 27, 2017. The results are displayed below. Photography by David Monteith-Hodge. The awards are presented in association with Integro.
Regional theatre of the year
Sheffield Theatres
Why it won
A stellar 2016 for Sheffield Theatres – outgoing artistic director Daniel Evans' final at the helm – saw it win five categories at this year's UK Theatre Awards, including the best musical award for both for Flowers for Mrs Harris and Show Boat.
The former demonstrated the venue's commitment to smaller, less-commercial musical projects, while the latter – which went on to enjoy a West End run – showed how well the theatre interprets big, classic shows. Both were directed by Evans, who left the venue in 2016 having cemented its reputation as one of the go-to regional theatres, with a compelling programme of work that speaks to local audiences but has the potential to attract theatregoers from across the UK.
The venue also commissioned a play from Richard Bean about snooker, called The Nap. It's not the most obvious subject for a play, but it demonstrates the theatre's commitment to bold choices and taking risks, and was an appropriate theme for a venue that hosts the snooker World Championship.
Sheffield Theatres' scheme Live for Five means people aged 16 to 25 can access the theatre's shows for just £5. And new artistic director Robert Hastie has vowed to continue with this policy of making theatre that is accessible, as he introduces an initiative to give every student studying drama in the city a free ticket to shows in the Crucible.
The judges were impressed by Sheffield's smart programming, which last year concluded with a crowd-pleasing Annie Get Your Gun, starring Anna-Jane Casey.
What our winner had to say
Sheffield Theatres artistic director Robert Hastie said: "We're delighted. I've been in this job for a short enough time for it not to be indecent of me to say that I completely agree with the result. Sheffield Theatres is a brilliant theatre. It's a huge honour for me to have joined such a brilliant team, led by chief executive Dan Bates, and to have inherited such a wonderful, thriving venue."

London theatre of the year
Regent's Park Open Air Theatre
Why it won
Regent's Park was on flying form last year, staging some of the most talked about work of the year.
Its 2016 summer season opened with the truly charming Running Wild, staged in London after originating as a youth theatre production at Chichester Festival Theatre. A children's show by nature, but, like War Horse, the combination of Michael Morpurgo's story and impressive puppetry elevated the production to a universal hit. It was a natty piece of programming by artistic director Timothy Sheader, which was followed by the bold, thumping Henry V, starring Michelle Terry as the eponymous king.
It was almost impossible to imagine the theatre staging Shakespeare in this way before Sheader took over in 2007, and is testament to the shift in programming he has brought about at this unfunded seasonal venue. Its line-up included Pride and Prejudice, which will return for a tour next year.
However, without a doubt its crowning glory was Sheader's superlative revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar. A sold-out smash hit at the box office and lauded by critics, it placed Regent's Park firmly at the heart of the London producing scene and topped a remarkable 2016 for this unique venue.
What our winner had to say
Regent's Park Open Air Theatre artistic director Timothy Sheader said: "It feels like a real privilege to have won this, not just for an individual production but for the whole theatre.
"That feels magnificently important in terms of everyone that works there, particularly with us as a seasonal venue. To get this recognition in January is particularly great for all those people up there throughout the year who make it possible to create an environment in which other artists can create the work they want to make."

Fringe theatre of the year
New Diorama Theatre
Why it won
The New Diorama does more than most fringe theatres to develop and support both emerging and established theatremakers. It has pioneered a number of new initiatives designed to help artists find their feet in the industry, addressing the practical and financial issues that young companies face.
Foremost amid several innovative schemes was Cash Flow Fund, an interest-free loan scheme for emerging theatre companies to help them deal with otherwise-prohibitive upfront costs. Artistic director David Byrne describes this as a "cooperative bank for theatre companies" and, since its launch this year, around £50,000 has been loaned out as part of the scheme.
The theatre, based near London Euston station, is addressing diversity in novel ways and, through a partnership with Diorama Arts Studios, provides free rehearsal space for black, Asian, minority ethnic and refugee-led theatre companies. Last year it announced a strand of artist development for comedy, an area sometimes overlooked by development schemes.
Last year, the 80-seat venue played host to the third Incoming festival of new work by emerging companies, produced by A Younger Theatre, and it continues to programme intelligently and creatively, with a series of well-received productions by companies including Rhum and Clay, Box of Tricks and Kandinsky. It won the 2016 Empty Space Peter Brook Award for "creating a vital hub for established and emerging theatre companies" and is currently showcasing new work by emerging companies in Hull as part of the UK City of Culture.
What our winner had to say
David Byrne, New Diorama Theatre's artistic and executive director, said: "Thank you very much. We have had an amazing year. There is a huge number of people who go into making this small theatre happen. This year we launched a lot of new ideas, and we are particularly thankful to Arts Council England, which supported us so much over the past 12 months.
"It's nice to know that even in really difficult times there are people out there who are willing to listen and take part in the arts."

Building of the year
King's Cross Theatre
Why it won
This is the second nomination in as many years for the King's Cross Theatre, which began life as a single tent in unused space near King's Cross Station in London.
Created specifically for The Railway Children, which would later share the space with In the Heights, the first venue at King's Cross is both a 1,000-seat space and a 500-seat space depending on the configuration.
The judges commended the theatre for disrupting the traditional model for a commercial theatre in London, and for moving focus away from the West End. It continued to do that, and more, last year, with two additions to the area that have proved innovative and exciting, both in the programming and design.
The Donmar Warehouse decamped to King's Cross for its all-female Shakespeare trilogy, while much-talked-about David Bowie musical Lazarus moved into a second new theatre space.
The life of this veritable theatre village is now coming to an end, as the land will shortly be reclaimed by Google for its new London offices. However, it's unlikely to be the end for the King's Cross Theatre team, who have vowed to continue the project.
In its short life span, the King's Cross Theatre has breathed new life into London theatre and its influence must not be understated – it has truly amplified the possibilities of how and where producers and venues can stage work.
What our winner had to say
Producer Tristan Baker, who runs the King's Cross Theatre, said: "We didn't expect this. We would like to thank The Stage and everyone who has been so supportive of what we have been doing up in King's Cross in our "tented village", as the legendary Mark Shenton describes us. We have had a great deal of fun there.
"A couple of years ago, we started off with a 10-week run of The Railway Children; two years later, at Christmas, we had three spaces, 2,500 seats and did 32 performances in one week. It's been extraordinary and this is not for us, but the team who run the spaces. One hundred people work there and they are the most extraordinary team to be able to pull that together."

It is that passion that has elevated all this year's nominees to greatness, and we applaud them.
Producer of the year
Sonia Friedman Productions
Why she won
Sonia Friedman is a two-time winner of this category. Friedman defended her title in some style in 2016, producing indisputably the biggest opening of the year: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Her masterstroke has been making it a genuine extension of the Potter narrative, with a new story, rather than a straightforward page-to-stage adaptation. The show has been a monster hit as well as a critical triumph and looks set to join the ranks of West End long-runners such as The Phantom of the Opera and Les Miserables.
That show alone would probably have been enough to secure her nomination on the shortlist, but – never one to rest on her laurels – Friedman has also been behind one of 2016's biggest musical openings – the West End premiere of Dreamgirls – as well as Nice Fish starring Mark Rylance, Funny Girl with Sheridan Smith (in the West End and soon to tour), Kinks musical Sunny Afternoon, Bend It Like Beckham, the tour of King Charles III and the ongoing London production of The Book of Mormon.
One of the few producers to straddle musical theatre and plays and to boast as strong a reputation for artistic taste as commercial acumen, her output – both in volume and quality – is extraordinary.
Friedman's achievements led to her topping The Stage 100 earlier this year, becoming only the second woman to top our industry power list as a solo entry.
What our winner had to say
Friedman said: "It feels really amazing. I guess it's just testament to the amount and range of work we do, and all the people we work with.
"I am so lucky to work with the most amazing team of staff. There are now 28 of us, which is why we're able to work on so many extraordinary pieces with such diversity."

School of the year
Musical Theatre Academy
Why it won
London-based Musical Theatre Academy won in this category in 2012, with its fast-track musical theatre programme slicing a year off students' training and getting them 'industry ready' in two years rather than three.
Since then, the academy has continued its work providing professional musical theatre training – with the judges noting its graduates now regularly feature in top professional productions – alongside a robust pastoral care package.
In 2016, however, the academy took an admirable step in tackling the issue of mental health among performers by creating the #time4change charter. A total of 112 organisations, including other drama schools, have already signed up.
In outlining the actions that can be taken on a day-to-day basis to make mental health and well-being a priority, MTA is nailing its colours to the mast when it comes to one of the most under-discussed issues both within the industry and on a broader societal level. It has also pledged to help people access to the help and support they need when necessary. Fact sheets and explanations of causes and effects that may impact an individual's mental health and well-being are set out as part of the charter as well as information of where help can be sought.
The judges felt that, aside from its growing influence within the training sector, MTA's spearheading of such a vital project as #time4change warranted recognition.
What our winner had to say
Annemarie Lewis Thomas, principal of MTA, said: "We were thrilled to get shortlisted, having already won in 2012, so to win was particularly surprising. It's rather humbling for a school that opened in 2009 to be recognised by our peers – twice.
"We're particularly proud of the #time4change initiative and the inroads we're currently making with 117 organisations signed up to it. Mental health is a difficulty in our industry and we need to address it."

International award
Matthew Bourne's New Adventures
Why it won
Matthew Bourne's company, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, has long been a regular feature across the UK, but in the past decade or so Bourne's commitment to touring has strengthened further with his work being taken more frequently across the globe.
The universal appeal of Bourne's work lends itself well to international touring, and 2016 was a remarkable year for it. New Adventures' Sleeping Beauty undertook a mammoth tour to Asia, visiting Seoul, Singapore, Beijing, Tokyo and Shanghai and reached an audience of more than 70,000. Not only this, but New Adventures has undergone a step-change in the way it engages with foreign audiences. Audience engagement was boosted on the Asian tour, and Re:Bourne – the company's charitable arm – delivered workshops and masterclasses in each city. New strategic relationships were formed between New Adventures and companies in Asia, and the company enhanced its profile in the region and flew the flag for British culture abroad.
Last year, Bourne premiered his 12th full-length production, The Red Shoes, and was knighted for his services to dance. So it is all the more commendable that New Adventures continues to nurture its work in new territories and bring Bourne's dance to new audiences.
What our winner had to say
Bourne said: "Thanks to The Stage for this recognition and to everyone who works with us at our team at New Adventures and our charity, Re:Bourne. It's really incredible to go to new places and to turn up in somewhere like Beijing or Shanghai to an audience that is enthusiastic and questioning and wants to understand the work. It took us by surprise.
"There is great enthusiasm for the work. We realised very quickly we had so much in common, much more in common than the things that divide us, and that's the power of art. That is why we go back and do seasons like the one being celebrated today."

Sustainability award
Tara Theatre
Why it won
Theatre company Tara Arts opened new premises last year – a £2.5 million remodelling of its Earlsfield home that had an impressive focus on sustainability. All front of house and ancillary lighting is LED and recycled materials have been used wherever possible.
The building has two 'green' roofs with 16 solar panels, which are predicted to supply about 40% of the building's electricity requirements. Reclaimed materials are used throughout, including antique doors from India.
There is also an earth stage floor, while the seating is recycled from the Courtyard Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company's former temporary home.
The judges agreed that the new building for Tara Arts showed what is possible when it comes to sustainable practices and felt that the building offers an example for other new-building projects.
What our winner had to say
Jatinder Verma, artistic director of Tara Theatre, said: "We are delighted to have won the sustainability award in the first year of the new Tara Theatre. What this does is encourage theatres like us to carry on [with sustainability] and that's why I'm delighted.
"It has just been [open] six months, and it has been a fantastic environment, not just for us but for artists as well as for our audiences."

Innovation award
Why it won
It's not often that sound design takes centre stage, yet when Complicite decided to rewrite Petru Popescu's Amazon Beaming for the theatre, it was – in the words of sound designer Gareth Fry – "not the sort of story you can put on in the typical fashion".
Since the Royal Shakespeare Company put a holographic 'actor' on stage last year, heading to the Amazon to record binaural sound using a head-shaped microphone might seem relatively lo-fi, but the result was truly astonishing. Delivered to the audience via headphones, the installation of The Encounter required several kilometres of cable and custom hardware manufactured by a team of sound engineers and seamstresses. The unique staging allowed Complicite to innovate its way to a wider audience, too: since the delivery lent itself perfectly to live streaming, the company opted to broadcast the performance to the world – for free – over consecutive days.
Happily, that access did not prevent the company from taking its elaborate installation on an extensive UK and international tour in 2016, following its world premiere in Edinburgh in 2015. Despite its complexity, there was not a whiff of gimmickry. The Encounter was that rarest of achievements: a fluent, seemingly effortless fusion of art and technology, without compromise.
What our winner had to say
Kirsty Housley, co-director of The Encounter, said: "Thank you very much, we really appreciate this. The Encounter was an act of storytelling and, for the audience, an act of listening. It feels like a piece of work about listening and communicating across boundaries, and so is really important right now."

Unsung Hero
Ned Seago
Why he won
Since joining the Old Vic 30 years ago, Ned Seago has become a familiar and much-loved face, both front and back stage, at the London theatre. He initially travelled to London from Norfolk for a ticket-checking job as part of the front-of-house team and was offered the role on the spot, taking up the post in November 1986. He went on to cover different roles including box office assistant and administration assistant, before moving permanently to the stage door when the current Old Vic Theatre Trust took over in 1998.
He has developed a vast knowledge of the theatre, leading him to be known as the Old Vic's 'in-house historian'. As well as his day job as stage door manager, he also runs 'Ned's tours', giving members of the public an insight into the venue.
Artistic director Matthew Warchus claims there's no such thing as an "entirely bad day at work when you have Ned on the stage door". He adds: "From an early-morning welcome to a late-night farewell, he is a beacon of calm, unruffled authority. He always provokes a smile and is unfailingly sensitive, kind, discrete, loyal and supportive."
What our winner had to say
Seago said: "It's a word I don't often use, because I think it's an awful word, but I am gobsmacked, because I have no idea why me. But obviously I am very glad I have won the award.
"I think I've been there so long basically because nobody else would have me, but it's a wonderful place to work. On balance, it's the bricks and mortar that keep me prisoner; hopefully they'll do so until I drop off my perch."

"Hospital treatment"
About: Doncaster Royal Infirmary Doncaster Royal Infirmary Doncaster DN2 5LT
Posted by Warrenmcgrath
I was admitted to DRI after fracturing my hip. The initial care was ok but after a couple of days it got worse. I was unable to open my bowels and it was 12 days before I was given an enema to help. I was left in a hoist sling because staff who put me in it forgot I was in it. My bodily cleanliness left a lot to be desired as I was bed bound for the time I was in and couldn't get to the bathroom myself. I couldn't get out of hospital soon enough & I dread the thought of having to go back. A bad experience overall.

She was born on 25 September 1962 in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Her grandfather, of Algerian origin, arrived in France during the 1920s. Her father, Jacques Noureddine, played the saxophone. Juliette began to learn to play the piano at the young age of seven. Juliette had her beginnings in Toulouse; after spending her teenage years in a religious institute, and after passing through the faculties of Literature and Musicology, she started playing in bars and restaurants throughout Toulouse as a pianist, performing songs by Jacques Brel and Édith Piaf. It was around the age of 18 that Juliette began to write and sing. Her first song was entitled "This evening I'm sleeping with Chopin." One evening, Juliette sang a song accompanied by the piano in a bar in Toulouse. The boss quickly hired her, and she sang there every evening for a year and a half.
In 1985 and 1986, she was present at the festival Découvertes du Printemps in Bourges, a festival that features promising young talents. After a tour in Germany, she played the opening act for Jean Guidoni in 1990. It was at this time that she had a meeting with Pierre Philippe. She received the grand prix de la chanson française at Saarbrücken.
In 1991, she published her first album, Que Tal?.

It's not the most powerful luxury SUV on the market, but the 2012 Range Rover feels supremely in command, on the road or off the pavement.
The base Range Rover is powered by a 5.0-liter V-8, rated at 375 horsepower. Coupled to a six-speed ZF automatic transmission and Land Rover's four-wheel-drive system, it's capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in 7.2 seconds.
Adding on a supercharger boosts output to 510 horsepower, and drops 0-60 mph times to a scant 5.9 seconds. Both versions also are also capable of towing 7,700 pounds when properly equipped, and both have good drivetrain performance, with rapid and smooth shifts playing well with the V-8's meaty powerband. To our tastes, nothing says "British car" like the supercharger's whine, too. Considering the Range Rover's available speeds, its fuel economy of 12/18 mpg is still too low for our tastes.
On the road, the Range Rover performs well with either available drivetrain. The 6000-pound vehicle dials up speed quickly, and it's a stable, solid-handling machine. The steering can feel a bit slow but it weights up progressively, and has pronounced on-center feel, which helps it stay on track on interstates. Curves don't throw it, either, as its adjustable suspension lowers itself a fraction of an inch for more stability at higher speeds. Big wheels and tires and large brakes add to the aura of semi-invincibility. This isn't one of those vehicles that drives smaller than it is--but it's still athletic in its own way.
The Range Rover comes into its own when the pavement ends. Its sophisticated Terrain Response System has remarkable capability no matter what the surface--snow, mud, sand or gravel. All in concert, the air suspension raises the body for even better ground clearance, and the traction systems modulate wheelspin to let the Range Rover clamber up some daunting hills and trundle some steep descents with very little drama. Despite its high style, the Range Rover acquits itself like a billy goat when it needs to.

Ekelund's 1920's Research Project
Example: Louis Armstrong
Born August 4, 1901--------------------Died July 6, 1971
Photo from: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Louis_Armstrong
Heebie Jeebies was a big hit for Armstrong in the 1920's and is an example of scat singing style.
This is called plagiarism. DON'T DO IT!
I copied the text below from:
This is just to show you an example of how text will appear in your project.
Early Career: Jazz Musician
Though Armstrong was content to remain in New Orleans, in the summer of 1922, he received a call from King Oliver to come to Chicago and join his Creole Jazz Band on second cornet. Armstrong accepted, and he was soon taking Chicago by storm with both his remarkably firery playing and the dazzling two-cornet breaks that he shared with Oliver. He made his first recordings with Oliver on April 5, 1923; that day, he earned his first recorded solo on "Chimes Blues."
Armstrong soon began dating the female pianist in the band, Lillian Hardin. After they married in 1924, Hardin made it clear that she felt Oliver was holding Armstrong back. She pushed her husband to cut ties with his mentor and join Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra, the top African-American dance band in New York City at the time. Armstrong joined Henderson in the fall of 1924, and immediately made his presence felt with a series of solos that introduced the concept of swing music to the band. Armstrong had a great influence on Henderson and his arranger, Don Redman, both of whom began integrating Armstrong's swinging vocabulary into their arrangements—transforming Henderson's band into what is generally regarded as the first jazz big band.
However, Armstrong's southern background didn't mesh well with the more urban, Northern mentality of Henderson's other musicians, who sometimes gave Armstrong a hard time over his wardrobe and the way he talked. Henderson also forbade Armstrong from singing, fearing that his rough way of vocalizing would be too coarse for the sophisticated audiences at the Roseland Ballroom. Unhappy, Armstrong left Henderson in 1925 to return to Chicago, where he began playing with his wife Lil's band at the Dreamland Café.
Mid-Career: Acclaimed Artist
While in New York, Armstrong cut dozens of records as a sideman, creating inspirational jazz with other greats such as Sidney Bechet, and backing numerous blues singers, namely Bessie Smith. Back in Chicago, OKeh Records decided to let Armstrong make his first records with a band under his own name: Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five. From 1925 to 1928, Armstrong made more than 60 records with the Hot Five and, later, the Hot Seven. Today, these are generally regarded as the most important and influential recordings in jazz history; on these records, Armstrong's virtuoso brilliance helped transform jazz from an ensemble music to a soloist's art. His stop-time solos on numbers like "Cornet Chop Suey" and "Potato Head Blues" changed jazz history, featuring daring rhythmic choices, swinging phrasing and incredible high notes. He also began singing on these recordings, popularizing wordless "scat singing" with his hugely popular vocal on 1926's "Heebie Jeebies."
The Hot Five and Hot Seven were strictly recording groups; Armstrong performed nightly during this period with Erskine Tate's orchestra at the Vendome Theater, often playing music for silent movies. While performing with Tate in 1926, Armstrong finally switched from the cornet to the trumpet.
Armstrong's popularity continued to grow in Chicago throughout the decade, as he began playing other venues, including the Sunset Café and the Savoy Ballroom. A young pianist from Pittsburgh, Earl "Fatha" Hines, assimilated Armstrong's ideas into his piano playing. Together, the two formed a potent team and made some of the greatest recordings in jazz history in 1928, including their virtuoso duet, "Weather Bird," and "West End Blues." The latter performance is one of Armstrong's best known works, opening with a stunning cadenza that features equal helpings of opera and the blues; with its release, "West End Blues" proved to the world that the musical genre of fun, dance jazz was also capable of producing high art.
In the summer of 1929, Armstrong headed to New York, where he had a role in a Broadway production of Connie's Hot Chocolates, featuring the music of Fats Waller and Andy Razaf. Armstrong was featured nightly on Ain't Misbehavin', breaking up the crowds of white theatergoers nightly. That same year, he recorded with small New Orleans-influenced groups, including the Hot Five, and began recording larger ensembles. Instead of doing strictly jazz numbers, OKeh began allowing Armstrong to record popular songs of the day, including "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," "Star Dust" and "Body and Soul." Armstrong's daring vocal transformations of these songs completely changed the concept of popular singing in American popular music, and had lasting effects on all singers who came after him, including Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald.

We should not lose the super user account on any operating system especially on VMware ESXi. There may be a chance of losing root password due to system administrator careless or defective keyboard. If you forgot root password of ESXi host, then there is no way to recover it. VMware does not provide utility or methods to recover the original root password of an ESX/ESXi host.
If you try with some other method may lead to the host failure or unsupported configuration due to complex architecture of ESXi as per VMware KB. Before reinstalling ESXi, you can just try this method as a last option.
In order to recover the root password, you need Ubuntu Desktop operating system DVD.
1. Halt the VMware ESXi server from console (Hardware console whatever you have) since we can't login to ESXi host to shutdown the server by pressing F12.
2. Boot the server from Ubuntu Desktop DVD. Here i am using Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 since it will work as Live CD.
3. Once the Ubuntu is boot up, it will ask two options. You just select "Try Ubuntu".
4. From the Ubuntu desktop, click on the search icon and search for terminal and open it.
Double click the terminal icon.
5. Gain root access by using sudo command. Use fdisk command to list the available disks.
6. Normally /dev/sda will be the root disk of VMware Esxi. As per the above screenshot, sda is having GPT partition and it's not supported in fdisk .Let me try from Gparted utility.
Gparted screen will something like below one.
7. You need to mount /dev/sda5 to recover the VMware ESXi password. You need to identify in terms of size and flag. Once you have mounted, you can see files like the below screen shot.
8. Copy the file "state.tgz" to /tmp. Then untar the state.tgz which will create file called local.tgz.
9. Untar the local.tgz file and it will create a directory called "etc".
10. Go to the "etc" directory and edit the file called "shadow" using vi editor. You need to remove the strings between first colon to second colon (which will be encrypted password).
11. Here i am updating the "etc" to local.tgz and local.tgz to state.tgz. After updating the tar files, i am copying the updated state.tgz file to /mnt where we have mounted the VMware ESXi root.
12.Un mount the /mnt and reboot it. Please make sure that you need to remove the "Ubuntu Desktop" DVD from the server. So that it can boot from local hard disk.
13. Once the VMware ESXi 5.5 is boot up, just login as root without password.
14. Set new root password from here.
Thats it. Try this method on your own risk because vmware doesn't take any responsibility if anything bad happens while trying above method.

No it is not. I started at age 18 and it is doable. The only difference imho is that older people tend to quit and not practice as much as younger children due to the fact of time. When you are 23, you have to work, have responsibilities etc, so you do not really have much time to practice, BUT! If you make time for it, you can learn it no problem. Is not that piano is harder to learn when you get older, it is mostly the same, what is hard is to MAKE TIME to learn and practice.
If you make time you can learn it, like anything else :)10|10|0

FFL requirements today???
I didn't renew my FFL during the Clinton era due to harassment from the local LEOs.
Is it possible to obtain an FFL today without a store front? I'm in rural AZ and am interested in being a non stocking dealer if possible. I would assist in transfers and background checks if this becomes law. Firearms would be ordered only for individual buyers. This is what I was doing before Clinton got me, and I'd like to do it again IF I can get the FFL without a store front.
Salome, AZ
I believe I would start with the agency or authority that issue the permit / licenses
As said, talk to the ATF.
However, I do business with several 01 FFLs that have their operations at their home (one is a danged good gunsmith).
You must be legal (zoning, business license) you must have a designated premises (cannot operate ONLY at gun shows)
You must have established operating hours (could be 1-4 on Saturdays)
You MUST intend to "engage in the business" of buying and selling guns. If you use it only for personal buying, will not fly.
And. as said, talk to the ATF.
Just finished my once every three years renewal check from ATF. My local agent (Dallas) said processing ten new requests for one renewal visit! Seemed to be flexible on everything but I have a building I operate out of and have regular office hours. He did mention there were several operating out of their house but the only concern was the business licensing for the area and zoning requirements for the location. I know three of them out of the Dallas office and they all three have been very courteous, attentive to my questions/concerns and two of the three have given me their personal cell phone numbers to be able to have questions answered after hours or weekends if I run into something I am not used to handling! Call and talk with your local agents and I believe you will find them to be darn nice folks and willing to help you through anything you need assistance with.
That's a great point.
Sometimes we all (and myself very much included) fall into the trap of demonizing the entire ATF but there are certainly some very good people working there as well!

Getting things done is just like a balanced, nutritional, and sustainable diet. It helps you feel good and ensures you're fit to take on both mental and physical challenges with an increased tenacity.
A successful diet is a successful habit, same goes when it comes to productivity, it's a habit.
When you start a diet, the first things you do is
- Get interested and educate yourself about the topic
- Plan your activities: food shopping, exercising, cooking, etc.
- Introduce those activities into your life in a consistent way to create routines
- Measure results and investigate ways to constantly improve
In the same way, being more productive follows the same game plan:
- Education about productivity methods and tools
- Selecting a productivity method and developing a simple game plan that you can follow
- Using your new method and tool in a consistent way to form a habit
- Constant monitoring and cycles of improvements in your day to day
Your instincts may lead you to think that you can just hop onto the getting things done wagon. However, as with most impulsive decisions, you'll probably quit a few days or, at best, 1-2 weeks later. Remember, change is not easy, so you need to plan accordingly. Just imagine if getting fit and dieting were easy.
That's why getting things done needs to be introduced into your life like a successful diet. You need to change the way you think and have an execution and monitoring plan!
Let's get started.
1# The Getting Things Done Know How
You have already taken the first step. You are starting to educate yourself about productivity. The web is full of resources that can help you plan your next move.
When it comes to education, little is better than none. Don't tell yourself that you don't have the time. Part of learning to get things done is to know how to manage your time. That's why you need to introduce little "learning outbursts" into your schedule…30 minutes per day, adds up to 10,950 minutes per year, 912.5 minutes per month and 3.5 hours per week!!!
After you've acquired the knowhow, it's time to…
2# Create a Plan You Can Follow
The quickest way to failure is to start all guns blazing.
When you outline your first steps, make sure you have many buffers. This will give you much needed room to breathe and ensure that when you fumble (and you probably will), you won't give up.
Don't try to introduce everything you learn at once. Plans come with phases for a reason. Phases ensure you don't progress unless you finished what you were previously working on. This will allow you to progress with clear purpose and a mind unhindered by incomplete actions.
After you drafted a plan, it's time to acquire some habits…
3# How to Create Habits out of Your Plans
Repeating actions in a constructive way until a habit is formed is nice theory but tad bit problematic when push comes to shove, why? Because it requires an addiction of sorts to a pattern that repeats itself, and patterns that repeat themselves bore us….
That's why the prizes you get from those recurring actions must motivate you to reproduce said actions again and again. When you're on a diet, motivation comes when you see the improvement you've made in front of the mirror or by experiencing new energies and a feeling that nothing can stop you.
The same applies when it comes to productivity. The results you'll get from getting things done must serve a purpose that will constantly energize you and strengthen your resolve. This may be a better home life, promotion at work, recognition from friends or the community. We all have something that makes us tick.
Forget the "repeat it for 60 days and you'll be able to create a habit out of it" saying. You need to combine that with a reward system.
#4 While You're At It, Make Sure You Don't Rest On Your Laurels!
If you are seeing success, start planning for new success. It's time to gain some insights into how to improve.
Increasing productivity, by its very nature, is an evolutionary process. Constantly evaluating your method and toolset will ensure that you are honing your productivity skills. The only way to improve is by regularly reviewing your handy work and setting targets to achieve in the foreseeable and far future. I always expect impossible things from myself. This approach, even when it doesn't hit the mark, allows me to constantly improve the way I handle projects, work and my life in general.
Pushing more limits = crossing more borders. It's a simple equation.
So remember, just like a successful diet, being more productive requires education, planning, execution, and improvement.
Until next time.

Gun Fired At Bournemouth House's Window
Five men have been questioned after shots were heard in Wimborne Road.
A boyfriend accused of murdering his girlfriend in a jealous rage has been accused in court of not showing remorse over her death.
Elliot Turner maintained that he did show remorse to his mother and to friends, and said he had been ''cut up'' about the death of aspiring model Emily Longley.
The prosecution alleges that the 20-year-old strangled Emily in his bedroom at his home in Bournemouth, Dorset because he was angry that she had been seeing other men.
Turner, who denies murder and perverting the course of justice, said Emily attacked him repeatedly in the room and he grabbed her around the neck for five or six seconds to defend himself.
He then went to sleep and found 17-year-old Emily dead in his bed when he woke up on May 7 last year.
Giving evidence for the third day at Winchester Crown Court, Turner told the jury he had ''really loved Emily'' and he wanted the best for her and that she had loved him.
Under cross-examination from Tim Mousley QC, he denied he had been manipulative or obsessive about Emily during their ''volatile'' relationship.
Mr Mousley asked: ''Are you in any way responsible for her death?''
Turner replied: ''No, I do not believe so.''
Mr Mousley: ''So the girl you adored died mysteriously?''
Turner: ''I don't know. I'm not a psychic.''
Mr Mousley: ''Have you shown any remorse at all for her death? I'm talking about a basic human instinct. What remorse have you shown?''
Turner: ''I feel sad. I had to contain myself because you're answering questions. In this courtroom it's been a weird nightmare.''
Turner told the jury that he did tend to exaggerate, that he has an ego, that all his friends called him All-Talk Turner and that Emily was more mature than him.
Mr Mousley asked him why he used certain words in text messages to friends when referring to Emily, such as ''b****'' or ''****'', when he said he loved her and wanted the best for her.
Turner said: ''Just because you call someone a **** does not mean you don't love them.''
He said he slept with three girls during his relationship with Emily, prompting Mr Mousley to ask: ''You had your suspicions about her sleeping with other people but it was all right for you to sleep with other people?''
Turner replied: ''I can't really make an excuse for that. It's not okay. It does sound hypocritical.''
Mr Mousley went through a letter Emily had written to Turner when they went for a break on the Isle of Man. In it she asked him to stop threatening to kill her and not to be so aggressive.
She said his behaviour had reminded her of a previous abusive relationship where a boyfriend had put a knife to her throat.
Turner said he had never done anything like that and she was referring to a time he had constantly pressed a lift button and this had reminded Emily of the relationship.
''You made that young girl scared didn't you?'' Mr Mousley asked.
Turner replied: ''I did not deliberately go out to make my girlfriend scared.''
Earlier the prosecution alleged that Turner ''went absolutely nuts'' at the end of a month of anger and upset, suspicious that she was ''twisting his heart'' during their short, volatile relationship.
When arrested he had his passport in his pocket, the court heard.
He told officers at the scene: ''I never meant to harm her. I just defended myself.''
He then made no comment in police interviews.
Computers seized from his home showed Google searches had been made for ''death by strangulation'' and ''how to get out of being charged for murder''.
Turner told the court he had made those searches while on bail because he was curious and angry about the ''ridiculous'' police questions to him, asking whether he was a gangster or if he had a gun.
Police bugged the family home and recorded Turner's parents Leigh Turner, 54, and Anita Turner, 51, ''fabricating evidence'' and being worried about lying to the police.
Leigh Turner, who runs a jewellery shop in which his son works part-time, is alleged to have destroyed with bleach a letter it was said his son had written, saying he killed Emily.
He was heard to say on the recordings: ''Elliot ******* strangled her.''
Anita Turner took away a coat from the scene of the death, it is also alleged.
They both deny perverting the course of justice.
Emily was born in Britain but her family emigrated to New Zealand when she was nine. She returned to live with her grandparents in Bournemouth to study around the time she died.
The jury was also told that Turner received a harassment warning letter from the police in January 2008 when he was 16, telling him not to contact an ex-girlfriend.
The trial continues.

Oh, it's you again. You do realise you lose a point for every time you post a new round of pictures? All good will is slowly negated...21|12|2
Well, believe or not, I feel insecure of my look. Sometimes I feel like I am going to cry, I can't find that confidence In me. I feel that I need to read these comments saying how pretty I am. Yes, I accept that, regarding that neither of us know eachother, and knowing that I will never see you In my life; I may say here that I am miserable. I need to save money to get plastic surgery for my big nose and my chin which looks sharply forward and pretty wide.

This is the first time me seeing her post this.
Yeah don't worry, I'm not actually asking you out :P But I'm glad my advice appears to be helpful, and I wish you well! Sometimes playing the devil's advocate is worthwhile, even though it's unpopular.

I have read elsewhere you were saving money to do plastic surgery. I REALLY suggest you don't. It will take away the uniqueness of your beauty.
With the way you look right now you could easily be an actress or as someone else said a model cause you don't look like anybody else.
If you got plastic surgery you'll look like every other woman and it might take away something special.
That is just an opinion, of course at the end of the day you make your own decision.
You're beautiful. :)00|00|0
Thank you, after reading those , I thought that plastic surgery was unnecessary for me only to charm away my uniqueness.. I want to specially thank you for making me realise the aspect from which I have never looked, and thank you for all your compliments :)
I'm really glad to hear that! Thanks for MHO :)

Greeks Bearing Debt
Athens gives global markets a shiver.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average yesterday saw its worst one-day decline—off 268.37 points, or 2.6%—since April, and the euro hit an eight-month low against the dollar. A proximate cause for these global jitters is a relatively poor state in the southern Balkans.
This Greek economic tragedy spent years in production but went on show only late last year. The markets looked on horrified when Greece's budget deficits and public debt came in multiples higher than previously believed. The cost of insuring Greek bonds against...

*Warning: This is a long and photo-heavy post*
This past Saturday, January 21st, I participated in the Women's March on Washington. I did so for a number of reasons, the main one being that it is far beyond time for me as an adult to stand up for what I believe in. I have had a tugging and pulling at my heart and soul over that last 15 years or so that I often tamped down because it felt overwhelming to be a participant. But what I have come to realize is that while in my own immediate circle, I may be equal and there might not be prejudices, we are far from truly overcoming those things.
The fact is over all, women are not equal – we still make less than men for doing the same work – and that includes CEOs, doctors, athletes, and tech – areas where you'd assume the playing ground is level. I know and have experienced personally being paid less than a male subordinate. Yes, I have been paid less than a person working for ME. When I found out and questioned it, I was told it was because he was a young man with a family and needed to make more. At the time, I was a single parent, not even receiving child support because my ex-husband left the country. Let that sink in.
Men continue to debate the rights we should have over our own bodies, including if we should have free or inexpensive access to birth control, gynecological appointments and even prenatal care. Nor do we have paid (or sometimes unpaid) maternity leave as a rule.
As a runner, I have to be careful when I run in the dark – because if I suffered violence at the hands of an evil person, it would be considered "my fault." I must also be careful that the running clothes I wear are not considered too provocative. Even when I am covered neck to toe I am often subjected to being catcalled and objectified.
Women are constantly being told they are too old, too fat, too unattractive, to dress like a lady and make sure we have the correct designer clothing and accessories.
Now, imagine all of this plus being an immigrant woman, gay woman, transgendered woman, or woman of color.
I marched.
My personal trip to DC actually was a 24 hour adventure, 14 hours of which were spent on a bus.
We left from a mall parking lot at 1:30 in the morning on Saturday and arrived in DC at 8:30.
My amigos for the day
Immediately upon exiting our bus, we all started walking towards the metro then quickly decided it was probably going to be too packed. We decided then to walk to the starting point which was about 2 miles away – it was a literal sea of bodies on both sides of the street. Right from the beginning we saw so many clever signs and expressions of what people were feeling.
We walked through the Capital Hill neighborhood and were cheered by the residents along the way. Every single yard in that neighborhood had signs with Martin Luther King, Jr. quotes which were just all the more appropriate that day.
Look closely and you'll see the lady on the right is holding up her walker. Love.
The Connecticut group was having a pre-rally at the Museum of the American Indian and we went looking for that but never found it because even before the official program began, there were people as far as the eye could see.
Suddenly we heard a roar and figured the official program was beginning but couldn't hear anything and so began to shuffle around trying to figure out where it was and how close we could get. We were not successful and it became apparent that this crowd was much, much larger than the organizers had expected. Everything, including the porta-potties were overwhelmed by the end of the day. We couldn't even watch it on our phones because there was absolutely no service of any kind.
A friend asked me if I was disappointed about not hearing the speakers and I honestly answered no as I knew I could probably YouTube the entire program once I was home (and I have done that). But also I wasn't disappointed because wherever you were in the crowd, there were mini celebrations of various causes going on and it felt like a sisterhood of humankind.
About an hour before the schedule March time, the crowds really began to swell and suddenly my friends and I were so surrounded that we literally could not move one inch. It was like a slight pressing in that kept getting tighter. One of the ladies I was with is fairly short – maybe 5'2" and I took one look at her face and knew I had to figure out how to get us into more open space – if that was even possible. I actually have claustrophobia myself but I think my brain switched into survival mode and didn't allow me to panic.
I got one of the other ladies, who was a bit taller than me to lead the way and we formed a human chain holding on to each other and began to inch our way toward the mall area that is surrounded by the Smithsonian museums. It took us approximately an hour and 15 minutes to get a quarter of a mile! And that was when we knew once and for all, we were at a history making event.
Finally out where we had some room. Our favorite shirt on a man.
"This is what a feminist looks like"
What you can't see is how muscley this guy was!
At this point (1:30) most of us had been wide awake since 4:00 am. Two of us who drink coffee hadn't had any and had splitting headaches and we all were feeling like we just wanted to sit down for a minute. The speakers were still going strong and the march was nowhere near started (plus we were hearing they might not let us actually march because the crowds were bigger than the march route) so we decided to see if we could find a place to sit and have some lunch. I took the group to a street near the mall where I know there were lots of restaurants and we began to go into each one only to be told from a 45 minute wait to they weren't accepting any more walk-ins. We finally decided to just put our name in and wait and much to our surprise 10 minutes later we were seated. (We think others who had put their names on the list just left which moved us up quickly).
This was a much needed break and we enjoyed bathrooms with running water, a lovely lunch, and simply exhaling for a minute.
This was a much needed break and we enjoyed bathrooms with running water, a lovely lunch, and simply exhaling for a minute.
Once lunch was done we walked back towards the mall to see what was going on and were delighted to find that the march had started and we jumped right in and walked towards the White House singing and laughing and chanting along the way. We kept thinking that we'd run into someone one of us knew, but never did. Little Helen was there with her husband and sister-in-law but I never saw her!
As we neared the White House, we noticed the reviewing stands that had been put up for the inaugural parade were still up but instead of being empty, that day they were filled to the brim with supporters.
It was truly an amazing, life-changing experience – even though they did shut the route down and wouldn't let us anywhere near the White House - we knew we were part of the beginning of a movement. It was overwhelming being a part of a group of half a million people – all ages, colors, sizes, genders, races and ethnicities who are committed to upholding the guiding principles of our nation as well as our more modern principles of inclusivity. In this huge, diverse group where we were all crushed together, as we made our voices heard, we did not see anything but kindness. I was delighted to read the next day that not one single arrest was made.
You don't have to agree with me and whether you do or not, I marched for you too. Because THIS is what democracy looks like and I can't keep quiet.
This song was sung by women who had never met each other, and practiced via Skype. Alma Harel, a filmmaker happened to walk right into the group and capture it for us all.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
petiton for discharge as executor of estate has been signed already. Executor remodeled my deceased fathers house with money from estate then said he would buy house for less than value or spend more estate money and let it sit on market for his price, never saw any values for mothers jewelry, no idea what was in bank , some cash I received was from IRA which I did not know about at time, so just paid large amount of taxes, do not about insurance or anything .my brother told me very little, I received 40% supposedly and him 60%
Not sure what you mean when you say that the petition for discharge has been signed. If you are saying that the court has already granted the petition, you may be too late. If you simply mean that the efxecutort has already signed ht epetition and filed it, you woudl file an objection to the petition and then you would file a request for an accounting,Ask a similar question
This answer is not intended to provide you with specific advice regarding your situation, or to create an attorney-client relationship.
In general, as the beneficiary of an estate, you should have had rights to receive information concerning assets which passed through the estate. If the executor has already been discharged by the court, you may be too late in trying to exercise those rights. If not, and if the executor has not been willing to provide you with requested information, you should consult an attorney to determine what your rights are and see if you can get the information from the executor without having to go to court and formally request it. Many times executors who are not willing to provide an individual beneficiary with information are more willing to do so when the beneficiary hires a lawyer.Ask a similar question
