Disclosure: This, in no way, is a criticism of the project itself. Oliver thinks it is fabulous so mission accomplished. My post is intended to make fun of how darn seriously I take it ;)
The project: as a conclusion to an ongoing animal project, bring in a sandwich that represents the student's assigned animal. The students, then, will eat lunch together.
Oliver loved his animal (river otter) and thought that the social event (ie: getting together to eat a sandwich that looks like your animal) would be the BEST THING EVER!!!! To be honest, when Oliver told me about this sandwich assignment, I thought that he had misunderstood something and asked him to clarify with his teacher. Yups... he did get it right... and, apparently, we had gone through this same project when Alexander was in this particular teacher's class. Considering that my memory is beyond sucking (see here), I had/still have absolutely no recollection of ever having made an animal sandwich before... and I am absolutely positive that Andreas didn't take this off my list of things to do 😉
Anyway, after polling some of my friends who have children in the same class as Oliver (thank you, Gabrielle, for humouring me 😉 ), I put a game plan together (ie: shopping list) and, this morning, I got up early to make the River Otter Sandwich. Let me tell you, it was NOT easy. Firstly, Oliver is the world's most picky eater (see here) so that was a challenge. No olives for eyes... bread and butter was OK, cucumbers are OK, salami is OK but only a little bit. Luckily for me, otters like fish so Goldfish crackers were usable. So, yesterday evening, after a busy day at work, after rushing home like a mad person, during a week where Andreas was enjoying beautiful Copenhagen (in case you missed this tidbit, see here), I found myself wandering around the grocery store trying to figure out what best made an otter sandwich. I dared not ask the employees of the store for fear of being locked up 😉 Anyway, I found some supplies... including chocolate... not for the otter but for me (after this, I deserve it, no?) and made my way home to think up strategies with Oliver.
Voila! See the final product below.... Does it look like an otter? To me, it looks more like a mouse or an ear-challenged cat... but, heck, it is as good as it gets 😉... and Oliver likes it, which is- ultimately- all that counts. Hope he has a good lunch!
Happy Friday to you all! xox

MPAs: Telling a Great Fish Story in France
Sarah Sikich, Heal the Bay's Director of Coastal Resources, heads to France to share the good news about our state's blossoming Marine Protected Areas.
If you've been lucky enough to go for a dive, surf, or kayak at the Channel Islands, it's hard not to be captivated by the cathedral kelp forests, large fish cruising the reef, and the occasional harbor seal's shy game of peek-a-boo.
These Islands, along with special places throughout the entire California coast, enjoy state protections that allow the marine wildlife inside to thrive. Like underwater parks, the marine protected areas (MPAs for short) here act as safe havens for the garibaldi, black seabass, and giant kelp forests that call Southern California's coastline home. And, the good news is that globally, MPAs are on the rise. There are more than 6,000 MPAs worldwide, yet less than 2% of our oceans is protected.
Next week, ocean scientists, policymakers, leaders, and conservation professionals will be convening in France to share ideas about how to foster MPA effectiveness around the world at the 2013 International Marine Protected Areas Congress. And Heal the Bay's story will be among those in the fold. As one of the prime players in the establishment of MPAs in the Golden State, we will be part of a California delegation heading to Marseilles to spread the good news.
We will be sharing stories about California's MPAs and showcasing the Marine Life Protection Act as a model for other nations that want to build effective community engagement and science-based planning in their MPA development. We'll also bring back MPA stories from around the world that may enhance MPA stewardship on our coast.
Next time you visit a California MPA to enjoy the majestic kelp forest, just think that at the same time someone else might be enjoying the corals along Australia's Great Barrier Reef, whale sharks in Mozambique, or diving iguanas in the Galapagos.
Please look for our daily blog posts, photos and videos from the conference:
- Follow us on Twitter: @OurOcean, @HealTheBay, and @ThePacificOcean. We'll be having a Twitter Party on Nov. 6 at 2 p.m. PST
- Follow us on Instagram: HealTheBay and Ocean Conservancy
- Hashtags: #MPAsWork and #IMPAC3
Bon Voyage!

Online / Offline – Google just changed the paradigm (again)
Nice post from Nick. Gears is a big deal because it kicks off the battle for 'office' applications that reside in the ether … on your hard drive AND on the network.
This will drive bank IT fold crazy … welcome to Web 2.0.
Gears, Google's newly introduced set of software tools that allows web-based programs to continue to run even when a user loses his Internet connection, is a modern-day analogue to Reuters' carrier pigeons.
PS… if you want to see how this works, and you are a Google Reader user, go to home, and follow the links. Then you can read your feeds in a browser, offline …. prepare to be confused !!!
One Response
Most of the analysts (Forrester et al) have been talking up the concept of rich client applications that can work both online and offline. And of course we have all the Web 2.0 components that, it seems, can do everything short of checking your refrigerator and ordering your groceries (but wait, someone was working on that as well…)
Google Gears, if one were to use it as a basis for developing banking software, could serve three key purposes
a. Offline operations by bank staff when connectivity to the data centre is lost (yes this happens). Replace the branch server with these kind of applications.
b. Build applications for travelling salesforce which work out of the browser, both online and offline.
b. Build offline capabilities for bank customers, eliminating the need for expensive to maintain custom-built desktop applications, which are currently the only way to deliver offline functionality to customers.
Key concerns would be, of course, around
a. Data security in the cache
b. Amount of storage reqmts for the cache
c. Synchronising offline and online data once connectivity is established

Accidents that produce personal injury are common occurrences and can leave an injured victim in a very difficult situation. Many times the injuries are very serious and the victim's entire life is disrupted, including creating problems for the family when the injury impacts their personal transportation or the ability to earn a living. And, this is not to mention the medical bills and level of pain-and-suffering that many accident injury victims must endure. Regardless of the type of accident that causes a personal injury, it is the responsibility of the claimant to prove the accident was the fault of the respondent, most of which will require an experienced accident lawyer like our legal professionals at South Florida Injury Attorneys accident lawyer in Miami FL.
Auto Accidents
The most common type of personal injury accident claims are auto collision. Car wreck cases can be very complicated and strongly defended when injuries are serious and the respondent insurance company thinks they can lessen or completely avoid paying a claim. Duty of care and negligence are vital to being properly compensated for car accident injury, which can never be accomplished without having an experienced and aggressive accident attorney representing the case.
Premises Liability Accidents
Accidents that cause injury on personal or commercial property are also very common and are subject to the same rules of proof as auto accidents. Authorized access to the property is always a component of these claims, in addition to duty of care and negligence. These too can be complicated claims that are strongly defended, and all injured claimants need legal counsel that understands what to expect from the defense, especially if there is an insurance company involved.
Defective Product Accidents
Many personal injuries occur due to product defects, including auto parts malfunctioning. This is a common component of an auto accident and can result in an additional separate lawsuit against the parts manufacturer. Product liability claims are a special class of suit because the plaintiff accident lawyer is not required to prove negligence. However, these case are still difficult and always require experienced legal representation.
Medical Malpractice Claims
Medical malpractice claims may be the most difficult of all personal injury claims because doctors receive a significant level of professional respect from the court system. They are actually considered expert testimony. It always takes solid aggressive legal counsel to win a medical malpractice case because of strong defense. But, it should be noted that all doctors carry excellent malpractice insurance and the potential for equitable damages may be readily available.
Contact a Miami Accident Lawyer
Anyone is Florida who may have standing for a personal injury accident claim should contact South Florida Accident Attorneys accident lawyer in Miami for a free full evaluation of the accident injury claim damage potential.

Bundys Fought Gov't Tyranny -- and Won!
wnd.com | Larry Klayman | This week, amidst the continous churning of "Russia, Russia, Russia" and all the machinations of Fake News, saw one of the biggest victories in the history of government prosecution and criminal defense in a fedeal court in Las Vegas, Nevada .There, Obama deep state prosecutors charged Cliven Bundy and his sons, Ryan and Ammon, with conspiring to threaten federal law enforcement at gun point when Bureau of Land Management (BLM) agents, along with agents of the FBI, raided the Bundy Ranch at Bunkerville, threatened the Bundy's, assaulted family members, killed their cattle and buried them in a secret mass grave. The fedeal judge presiding over the trial dismissed the government's indictment "with prejudice" based on flagrant and outrageous prosecutorial misconduct.

03 April 2018 -
The appointment of well-regarded Candi Castleberry Singleton last year to lead Twitter's equality efforts, replacing Jeffrey Siminoff as VP of diversity and inclusion, signals a renewed commitment to integrating more women, BAME and disabled employees into the heart of the workforce.
According to the organisation's latest diversity report, one third (32.5%) of its leadership positions are filled by women, whilst ethnic minorities account for 10.1% of employees at the management level. This includes the hires of Debra L. Lee, chairman and CEO of BET Networks, and Jayanta Jenkins, the company's global group creative director.
"We're focused on powering positive change by fostering respectful conversations, creating deeper human connections, and encouraging diverse interactions across the company," Singleton explained.
Since co-founder Jack Dorsey returned to the helm at Twitter in 2015, the chief executive has taken a lead in engaging with the organisations 4,000+ employees to find out their primary motivations, outlook and concerns through regular internal surveys and encouraging staff feedback.
Every week employees have an opportunity to ask questions of the executive leadership team, allowing them to develop a deeper relationship and establish some trust in their bosses.
Examples of the survey's questions includes staff feedback on whether the CEO was driving the right vision for the company, as well as assessing other factors such as team managers and work environment. Interestingly, the results of semi-annual surveys of employee engagement found Dorsey directly influences how employees feel about their jobs, even more so than their respective line managers.
The past five years has seen Twitter's systems criticised for online harassment, bots and misinformation, which has chased many users away from the platform.
Rather than ignore the platform's faults, Twitter's CEO Jack Dorsey has, as recently as this month, sought to take accountability and pledged to fix these issues.
"We aren't proud of how people have taken advantage of our service, or our inability to address it fast enough," Dorsey tweeted. "We've focused most of our efforts on removing content against our terms, instead of building a systemic framework to help encourage more healthy debate, conversations, and critical thinking. This is the approach we need now."
One reported move could be to use a media analytics firm such as Cortico to monitor the quality and health of conversations to determine its suitability to the social network. Twitter is also asking for ideas and help from its 330 million users, allowing consumers to submit proposals on how the site can encourage civil conversation, and offering funding for successful suggestions.
In October 2017, the company also introduced new guidelines and rules to prevent online abuse including the prohibitions on offensive usernames, hate groups and hateful images.
From the moment individuals accept the job offer at Twitter, the San Francisco-based firm seeks to integrate the new hire as quickly as possible into the organisation's culture.
Twitter's 75-step "Yes to Desk" process sees various internal departments ensure all the essential tools are ready for the individual to get started straight away, including setting up desks, email addresses and providing documents explaining job expectations and the code of ethics.
The company's onboarding scheme also seeks to evaporate the typical 'new-kid-at-school' nerves that affects all new employees by offering new hires a 'happy hour' with senior team having a manager join him/her at breakfast on the first day and ensuring the person has lunch with the colleagues from the outset.
Also, the regular Friday afternoon presentations by managers and colleagues allow new employees a valuable opportunity to get up to speed quickly with all the project managers and leads.
No longer just a messaging platform, Twitter has invested in live streaming services to impress users, businesses and investors globally.
This month, Twitter announced sports deals that will see it stream football, golf, Formula 1 and tennis in the Asia Pacific region from major broadcasters such as Fox Sports Asia, Eleven Sports and Astro Malaysia.
This follows streaming agreements the company already has with the National Basketball Association (NBA), NASCAR, Major League Soccer (MLS), martial arts and the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) to show clips and live matches. Furthermore, Twitter has linked up with TicToc, a live-streaming channel by Bloomberg Media, to showcase international daily news. Other collaborators include BuzzFeed and Viacom.
In-stream sponsorships support the monetisation of video content and short ads from content sponsors are also included in premium sports clips on Twitter. "This presents new opportunities for brands to reach passionate and engaged audiences by sponsoring premium video content at scale," said Matt Derella, vice-president of global client solutions.

Pokémon GO Glalie, the "Face Pokémon", evolves from a Pokémon GO Snorunt, the "Snow Hat Pokémon". Both Pokémon are pure ice types. Glalie's best moveset is Ice Shard with Avalanche.
Snorunt is a social creature, has been known to visit human dwellings. Glalie's icy body will not melt, and it can control ice by freezing moisture in the air.
Glalie has a max CP of 1945. Much like its CP, its stats are also average: STA (160), DEF (162) and ATK (162).
Glalie in the Pokémon GO meta
Glalie is a typical glass cannon in Pokémon GO, with access to several strong movesets and interesting move combinations. Unfortunately, due to it's weak stats and low Max CP, it's not really a meta relevant Pokémon.
Luckily, Glalie is known to have a mega evolution, boosting it's quick attacks with Refrigerate, an ability that converts all Normal Type attacks to Ice type.
Where to find Snorunt and Glalie in Pokemon GO?
Snorunt and Glalie are known to live in caves. Drowzee Biomes are the most likely places for Pokémon GO trainers to encounter these Pokémon. Since Snorunt visits human dwellings, perhaps trainers living in the city would encounter easier.
Pokémon GO Glalie Moves and Best Move sets
Best moveset: Ice Shard + Avalanche or Shadow Ball
Glalie can be built in only one way: as an Ice type glass cannon. Ice Shard performs slightly better than Frost Breath and Avalanche is slightly better than Shadow Ball, but SB still deals a lot of damage.
The following moves are part of Glalie's move pool:
- Frost Breath Ice (fast)
- Ice Shard Ice (fast)
- Avalanche ice (charge, 2 bar)
- Gyro Ball steel (charge, 2 bar)
- Shadow Ball ghost (charge, 2 bar)
Shiny Snorunt and Shiny Glalie in Pokemon GO
A normal Snorunt has a black body, white teeth, and is covered by triangular, yellow cloak. A normal Glalie is a black rock core covered by white ice. It has blue eyes, and visible white teeth. It also has 2 black horns on the side of its head.
A shiny Snorunt is covered by triangular, teal-white cloak. A shiny Glalie has bright red eyes. All other details are identical to their normal counterpart.
In the anime
Snorunt first appeared on the 382nd episode of the Pokémon series (Advanced Generation: Episode 108) titled, "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!". Glalie made a major appearance on the 397th episode of the Pokémon series (Advanced Generation: Episode 132) titled, "Rhapsody in Drew".

text: Bane turned his sights onto Gotham City and Batman. He was amazed at how fear reigned supreme and how criminals cowered at the mention of Batman. Bane decided to make it his mission to destroy Batman. He followed a strategy of wearing out Batman and then attacking him at his weakest. Bane broke Batman's back. However, Batman rallied back to peak form and defeated Bane. Since then, Bane tried unsuccessfully to kill him for nearly 10 years. A new opportunity presented itself when Vandal Savage recruited him. Bane dug up and stole the caskets of Bruce Wayne's parents and lured him into a trap. He knocked out Wayne and buried him alive with his parents. Wayne punched and dug his way to freedom. In the eventual rematch, Batman severed Bane's Venom cable with a Batarang and kicked him unconscious.

We had the pleasure of providing DJ and photography services for Lauren and Scott and the Windsor Ballroom in East Windsor.
Jay Thomson and David Friedman were tasked with providing DJ and MC skills. They work hard and play hard!

Jay tells us:
"The new Lauren and Scott Phibbs were incredibly excited to party the night away and they did just that. Literally danced all night! Lauren would not take no for an answer and her happy energy was so contagious that you couldn't keep most of the family OFF the dance floor.
Robbie (family member) also put on his best Michael Jackson impersonation with MJ diamond glove and signature hat…this guy brought the dance moves when we dropped "Billie Jean"!

A belt of asteroids or small rocks dance between Mars and Jupiter, remnants of a planet that didn't form or one that exploded, we don't know for sure. Back in the 1800 four of them were discovered and were granted the names of 4 goddesses of Olympus, in the belief that they were new planets. But it was not until 1972 that Eleanor Bach, an American astrologer, produced the first Ephemerides for these 4 asteroids with names of Greek goddesses that speak of four distinct Archetypes of the feminine, thus enriching the concept that we get from the Moon and Venus. It was the movement, first in an unconscious way, to incorporate these four aspects of the feminine into social and individual consciousness. Ceres, Pallas Athena, Juno and Vesta speak to us from the depths of our psyche, with their stories and personalities, helping us connect with the extraordinary variety of aspects of the feminine that lives within us, women and men. And I want to make clear this point mainly, that this phenomenon is not in any way limited to women, but it also includes men psyche. It was from this moments that these new archetypes began to emerge with force, helping us to transgress the system that limited women to the role of wife and mother or harlot.
Juno or Hera, was the sister and wife of Zeus, Supreme God of Olympus, after he dethroned his father Saturn. She was also Ceres (the mother) and Vesta (Virgin Priestess, sister)'s sister, and the aunt of Pallas Athena (another Virgin goddess of the Arts, Education and Strategy, and his father's daughter). Juno is the supreme symbol of the "wife". It is associated with the sign of Scorpio and Libra. When I say "wife" I mean the woman legally married who somehow has granted her husband, financial responsibility and decision making for the health of the relationship, although, they usually have the last word at home. It is faithful, monogamous and heterosexual, and her ultimate expression of the feminine is within the relationship, glad to be called, "Mrs……so and so." Her sexual expression consists of seducing her husband over and over again, she is not the best mother of the world, since she is not really interested in her children as much as in her husband and her relationship with him. Power struggles with her partner (Zeus) are famous in Greek mythology, she strikes the love-object of her unfaithful husband, with terrible punishments. She hates children he has with other women, especially Hercules and Pallas Athens, since they are not her children. In many versions it is said that he had no offsprings with Zeus, but Ares in many versions was their son. The marriage of Juno and Zeus is the symbol of the human marriage, with the typical loneliness of the wife of a husband occupied with his work and her characteristic emotional claims. The mistrust of their fidelity is well known. Hera or Juno represents the struggle of women for equality within marriage, the pathology of the relationships, infidelity, deception, manipulation through sexuality, power struggles in sexuality: "not today honey, i have a headache," etc. The sacrifice of the woman's profession or talents for the sake of the relationship, is another feature of this archetype, with the typical anger that ensues after few years, due to their creative frustrations. We cannot be just mother and wife, unless that's what we really want consciously.
These asteroids turn around the Sun in about 4 years, therefore spending about 4 months through each sign, more or less, because they have very irregular orbits. Juno has been in Scorpio throughout the year, as it's made its retrograde motion in this sign, on the other hand it will only be in Sagittarius until February 2nd, 2017. The transit through this sign represents an opening of mind in our notion of what a stable relationship should be, with an inclination to incorporate a more free and adventurous scope of the other, it speaks of intercultural couples, relationships with people from other countries. Opening to new idiosyncracies, new ways of eating, of thinking, of sharing, etc. If you have planets in the last decans of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces this is a special moment to rethink our attitude with regard to our relations. Topics of economic and emotional dependency are on the cards. Leo and Aries, could find themselves in intercultural relationships. In January of the coming year, Juno is aligned with Saturn and Pholus in the last degrees of Sag, in square to Chiron, therefore is a unique opportunity to take a look at the real reasons for our emotional pain, and the understanding of what happens within us, when we are in love. It opens your mind to new way of socializing and the acceptance that if the relationship does not evolve, it is destined to die. The transformation is continuous.
Each of us carries our oen emotional story recorded in our DNA and in our birth charts. Each story is absolutely unique. Don't you ever forget it! So fight for the freedom to liberate yourself of cultural impositions that thwart your own story from emerging.

Yes, I'm going to call a 13bp gain in 10yr yields an insane rally, because who would have logically conceived of such a thing in the current market? Sure, it wouldn't have been hard to imagine 6, 7, or 8bps of a bond market surge in response to some significant event, but 13bps is the biggest intraday move since Brexit, and beyond that one of 5 biggest moves in the past 7 years.
How did it happen?
Both stocks and bonds were pushing their technical boundaries in terms of being overbought and oversold respectively. The shine had already begun to come off the stock rally as of last week, but so much that it had a spillover effect for bonds. In fact bond yields continued to spike on Friday even as stocks swooned. Chalk that up to pent-up "new month" tradeflow momentum that was waiting for NFP.
Bond traders got their fill of selling early in Friday's session and held steady for the rest of the day. The steadiness was deceiving though. Trading remained active as "new month" trades continued to push toward higher yields while the stock sell-off created some safe-haven demand for bonds that pushed yields in the other direction. The result was a stalemate.
Today saw much better stock/bond correlation. With no more new-month trading (or much less, anyway), bonds were more impressionable. Stocks, of course, experienced massive losses. In percentage terms, it wasn't even in the top 100 worst days, but in outright terms, the Dow lost the most points on record. No matter how you slice it, Friday and today have been two of the worst back-to-back days for stocks in recent memory. Even if you're not too worried about that given the recently stellar levels, it still creates a ton of safe-haven demand for other asset classes. Bonds are one of the options and they definitely benefited from the scramble.
Safe-haven demand aside, speculators decreased bets on a Fed rate hike at the next meeting and for the overall number of hikes in 2018. The delta wasn't huge on that, but it was enough to create some organic demand for bonds (independent of the safe-haven cash fleeing stocks). The most interesting part of today's movement will be tomorrow and the remainder of the week. It's either going to end up being a very intense day of volatility, or the potential start of a turning point for bonds. Time will tell.

Fletch wrote:Golan Druze gather at border, chanting loyalty to Syria's Assad OCTOBER 6, 2018
Carrying Syrian flags and pictures of President Bashar al-Assad, dozens of Arab Druze who live on the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights gathered on Saturday to celebrate what they consider to be success in the Syrian civil war.
Dressed in traditional black garb and white hats, the small crowd chanted and shouted into megaphones, pledging loyalty to Assad, while Syrian soldiers, hundreds of meters away, across a security fence and on the opposite side of a valley, yelled back in support.
The Druze are an Arab minority who practice an offshoot of Islam and whose adherents in Syria have long been loyal to the ruling Assad family.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mide ... SKCN1MG0G6
You're a fucking clown Raven, a clueless one at that.
I am guessing you don't understand how FEAR can motivate minorities such as the Druze to enter into such open displays of loyalty to a totalitarian regime you stupid child.
If you read this article all the way through about the Druze population, divided by borders drawn by others, found themselves in Syria Lebanon and Israel and it seems they historically accept their lot in the country they reside but pay homage to the country(countries) just over their visible borders.
The Druze play a game of trying to keep everyone sweet so as not to upset anyone,
Read this article Felch and you MIGHT learn something, and you might also note which country gives them the greatest freedoms of choice --and your butthurt will be monumental when you do
https://www.pri.org/stories/2017-11-16/ ... rias-civil
No offence Felch, anyone reading the article will grasp the Druze fear and have no wish to upset Syria --hence the pretendy shows of allegiance.

Linking, Embedding, and Liability -
The Evolving State of the Law
For years, the question of whether embedding images through in-line linking is copyright infringement seemed to have been settled in favor of allowing embedding. Then, a photographer raised the issue in a New York court, which just ruled in favor of finding that embedding violates the display right. The decision comes as a surprise to those who routinely embed or frame third-party works from social media; to lawyers, the ruling sets up a possible circuit split that may take the issue to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Join us for a timely discussion on the practical and legal issues surrounding embedding, framing, and inline linking – an issue that affects bloggers, re-tweeters, media outlets, and many more.

Marathon des Sables - 21st edition
Sunday April 9th, 2006

Marathon des Sables - 21th edition
I just returned from what proved to be the most difficult Marathon des Sables in its 21 year history. Of the 731 starters, 146 dropped out due to the incredibly harsh weather, where temps over 110 degrees, high winds, brutal sand storms, and unusually high humidity levels, created conditions that were down right dangerous. Over 60 athletes required IV fluids. I witnessed runners not just quitting, but dropping unconscious right in there tracks, emergency flares that I never thought would be used were being shot up like the 4th of July, and people being rescued by helicopters and flown to hospitals....2 of which were in comas. The medical tents looked like a war zone...people sprawled out everywhere, on the ground, on cots, cured up in balls.... the authorities almost running out of IVs, with one of my tent mates getting 9 bags at once!!!....incredible!! It was no longer a race, but a quest to simply survive...EPIC!!!
The one thing about this experience that I still can't believe, and will never forget, is the comradery amongst the competitors. All the pain and struggle, and the doubt and despair, only seemed to strengthen our bonds. No matter how incredibly miserable we were, we always had each other and seemed to find a way to laugh at ourselves each night in our tents. Knowing we were all in this together, served to only make us grow closer. I feel like I made friends for a lifetime.
On the fourth and longest day, since it took me over 15 hours to complete, I was fortunate enough to witness one of those moments when I say "yes, this is why I do this!" As the sun began to set, the temperature lowered, and a cool breeze began to blow. I looked around and just couldn't believe that I was actually here...in the middle of the Sahara Desert, amongst these incredibly huge and beautiful sand dunes. The sun set, and I felt like I was living inside a movie I'd seen, or a book I'd read. All the things I'd imagined before coming here, all the plans I'd made, training hours logged, things I'd sacrificed, the things I'd hope to see.... it had all come true....and it was all worth it....all the pain and struggle....it was worth it....even for this one small moment of clarity. Here I was, so happy to have made it this far...and actually getting stronger now, and for the first time the miracle of my surroundings was allowing me to feel the first glimmers of hope and optimism. Even if I didn't make it, I was witnessing what so few people ever get to see. A few years ago, I probably never would have guessed I'd be in the middle of the desert in Africa, let alone in a 140 mile race in the middle of the desert!!! I'll never forget it...the things I felt, the things I witnessed, and the friends I'd made....so worth it!!!
Well I sure didn't set any records, and I have swollen and blistered feet to show for it, but a few days later, I sure as hell made it across the finish line, and completed the race!!!!!!! The last stage, I ran hard and finished strong, placing 199 out of 585 remaining runners. I finished just over 400 overall in a starting field of over 700, with many of the 146 dropped runners leaving the course on stretchers. Many of the runners in my group had incredible times a placed much better than I did, and I'm amazed at their heart and skill....my hat off to all of them!!!
I recommend that if anyone ever gets the chance to see this place, don't pass it up....but trust me, do it in a Land Rover, not on your feet....they get many more miles to the gallon, and no blisters!!!!

Door Jam - Training Impact Position
One of the most important drill you have in this program.
Whenever I have a student who asks about a what should impact feel like, I usually will respond with "let's find out". Then, I will get them into impact, step on the golf ball and say push into the golf ball and toward the target (slightly right of). Then I will have them try to feel as strong as possible. If you stand up, you will feel weaker. If you move your hands back, you will feel weaker. If you shift your weight to your back foot, then you will feel weaker. If you straighten your right arm all the way, it will feel weaker. If you don't side bend and are "tall" then you will feel weaker. However, if you bend too much forward and get your hands too much forward, you will get weaker as well. This is because there is a best way for the body to transfer energy through fascial lines. If you are in a strong impact position, then you will feel powerful.

By guest author Ben Casselman from the New York Times
"The Labour Department released its official hiring and unemployment figures for September on October 5, 2018 , providing the latest snapshot of the American economy
134,000 jobs were added last month. Wall Street economists had expected an increase of about 168000, according to MarketWatch.
■The unemployment rate was 3.7 percent, the lowest since 1969.
■ Average earnings rose by 8 cents an hour and are up 2.8 % over the past year.
■ Hiring figures for July and August were revised up by a combined 87000 jobs.
An eight-year recovery makes the labour market tight
The unemployment rate fell to a nearly five-decade low in September, punctuating a remarkable rebound in ten years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers set off a global financial crisis.
Employers added 134000 jobs in September, the slowest pace of growth in a year, and wage growth cooled slightly from August. But, there is little evidence that those mildly disappointing figures mark a larger slowdown. Friday's report marks eight straight years of monthly job growth, double the previous record.
By nearly any measure, today's labour market is the strongest since the dot-com boom of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Job growth has repeatedly defied economists' predictions of a slowdown. African-Americans, Latinos and other groups that often face discrimination are experiencing some of their lowest rates of joblessness on record.
"I view this as the strongest labor market in a generation," said Andrew Chamberlain, chief economist at the career site Glassdoor. "These really are the good times."
Where is the wage growth?
Those good times, however, have not yet translated into robust pay gains for many workers. The slow pace of wage growth has been a persistent source of disappointment in the recovery, and economists have long looked for evidence that the tight labour market is at last forcing companies to hand out raises.
"We are seeing some acceleration in average hourly earnings, maybe not as much as we would expect given how tight labor markets are," said Ben Herzon, an economist for Macroeconomic Advisers.
The long-awaited pickup may already have begun. Amazon announced this week that it would raise wages for all its employees in the United States to at least USD 15 an hour.
But, while faster wage growth would be good news for workers, it could worry policymakers at the Federal Reserve, who are watching for signs that the economy is "overheating" — that is, that the tight labour market and strong economy are sowing the seeds for faster inflation down the road. If those concerns mount, the Fed might raise interest rates more quickly than planned, which could bring the recovery to an end.
So far, there is not much evidence of that happening. The Fed raised interest rates last month as expected, but has thus far been content to move slowly. Jerome Powell, the Fed Chairman, said this week that the economy was good but "not too good to be true."
Hurricane Florence may have caused some distortions.
Take extra care interpreting September's jobs figures because of Hurricane Florence, which hit the Carolinas in the middle of the month. Natural disasters can affect employment numbers in various ways: interfering with data collection, disrupting hiring and putting people temporarily out of work as businesses shutter and residents evacuate.
Last year, the storms that hit Florida and Texas wreaked havoc on September's employment data. The government's initial report showed an unexpected net loss of jobs for the month; that figure was later revised up to show a tiny gain. Roughly 1.5 million people reported being unable to work because of the weather.
This year, the impact was probably more modest. Florence affected a smaller part of the country than last year's storms, and hit at a time in the month when it is less likely to disrupt data collection or measurement. Still, the storm may have muddied measures of earnings and working hours.
Midterm elections are approaching
Friday's report is one of the last major economic releases before November's midterm elections. The next round of jobs data will come four days before Election Day, by which point most voters' minds may be made up.
Republicans are counting on the strong economy to help hold off a potential "blue wave" of Democratic victories in the House and Senate. President Trump has repeatedly played up the low unemployment rate as evidence that his policies are working. It is not clear, however, that economic data will have much effect at the polls. Surveys show that views of the economy are split along partisan lines, with Democrats and even many independents expressing less optimism than Republicans.

The ever-growing popularity of streaming services such as Netflix could threaten already established forms of media such as cable television.
By Zachary Rhine
News and Feature Editor
In 1900 the word "television" was coined and added to the dictionary. In the 1930's the first television networks such as ABC and NBC began experimenting with national broadcasting programs. By the late 1950's, televisions were in the homes of over half of all Americans.
Because technology has been so readily available to our generation ever since we first learned to walk and talk, we often forget just how new of a form of media it is.
But media is constantly changing, expanding, and evolving. Dials on the TV were replaced by remotes. Soundless, colorless movies were replaced by action-packed blockbusters.
But sometimes what is new isn't always for the best. As human beings we often get distracted by the new, shiny toys and forget how enjoyable our old ones are.
In 1997 a small company was founded that would later go on to colonize the modern on-the-go streaming services. This company would become known as Netflix.
Netflix is a DVD rental and internet-based video-on-demand service provider that has grown increasingly popular in the 2010's.
Last year a study found that 6.5% of Americans canceled their cable; all while Netflix hit an all time high in the number of their subscriptions; ending the year with 75 million subscribers, according to CNN.
The Huffington Post contributes this to the fact that while more people are moving away from the traditional cable television outlets, providers are still increasing the cost of their bills.
I, like many people that I know, have both cable and Netflix. Both provide something that the other does not, and both excel in areas that the other struggles in.
Netflix is nice for "binge-watching" old TV shows I've never seen or need to catch up on. But cable TV has live events such as the SuperBowl and award shows.
The question we must ask ourselves now is: Is Netflix worth losing a part of this culture we as millennials have created?

this is psychedelia well through the looking glass and down several wrong turns – they hark back to the turn of paisley into heavy metal so if you're a fan of blue cheer, bang or mountain you're in for a treat.
there's some of the funkier elements of sleep in there, a bit of Steppenwolf and deep purple in there too - a real treat. you'll find less of their sludgy earlier work in there – this is a nuanced take on dramatic glam laden heavy metal, and is all the better for it.

3. Using structure to loosen up. (I am a big believer in this.)
4. Read about this in "O Magazine." Looks intriguing.
5. I could totally relate to this stay-at-home mom's experience. Less judgment, more empathy would go a long way in general and among women specifically.
