Developing An Annual Training Plan (ATP)
What is the purpose of training?
The objective of every training program is to achieve a peak performance by a scheduled date. Developing an Annnual Training Plan (ATP) is critical step in achieving this objective. The ATP serves as a training road map to creating a blue print for success. A well designed training plan facilitates growth and improvement in physiological, psychological, and technical abilities.
An annual training plan consists of 5 phases:
To develop a personalized training plan, you need to take proceed in a
linear steps to achieve positive progress:
Set goals What do you want to accomplish this season? Be specific with the competition dates. Set either an outcome goal, such as achieving a certain placing, or a process goal.
Evaluate event demands The demands of the event dictates the form and structure of your training. The majority of the training plan should reflect the specific demands of your event.
Establish schedule framework Using a calendar, note the important competition dates. Count back from that date to calculate the number of weeks available for training. Make notations on the calendar of other important information such as days you cannot train and low priority events that might serve as competitive warm-ups.
Periodize your training plan
After determining the total number of weeks available for training, divide the time into focused training peorids. Work backwards from your last competitive activiety. Label it US Nationals, World or Olympic Championships. Set aside days for traveling to the competition and the prior week or two as "peaking." Continue working backwards to divide the balance of the available time into blocks of three- or four-week periods.
Schedule recovery weeks
On your Annual Training Plan (ATP), each three- to four-week period should incorporate a recovery period after every strenuous workout. The recovery can be a change of pace from normal sessions to work on other elements that are less energy intensitive. The total volume of energy in this recovery session should be a reduction of up to half of the normal high energy training.
Schedule performance testing Part of the training program should be a consultation with the coach/trainer to review projected performance benchmarks.
Assign general and competition-specific preparation periods The two periods prior to the peak and taper weeks as "competition specific preparation". The two to three prior periods are "general preparation". The general preparation periods should be used to correct deficiecies in your technical training.
Schedule training for each day of the week The training week should include all exercise and sport workouts. Allow for recovery periods and fill in any remaining time with the less important sessions.
Follow the plan Even the best coach or training plan in the world can be successful only when their advice is implemented and and you stick to the plan.
Keep track of your daily activities
Keep a
daily log data of what training was planned and make notations about
the actual duration and intensity. Include your subjection opinion of
how well the session(s) met the objectives of the plan. If
medical equipment is available, conduct a post-workout training file of
respiration, blood pressing, heart rate, etc. to confirm if you are
making progress.
Random training by doing what you're in the mood to do that day can be more fun than achieving contined improvement and long-term success. To fullfil your planning goals, an intelligently designed training plan is necessary to map out what needs to be accomplished and provides a realistic schedule to achive all of the objectives to be a winner.
Start by forming a weekly
training plan
The modern practice of periodized
training was
expanded and
refined by Eastern-block nations during the Cold War (1950-1970).
Scientists involved in training athletes have not offered research
studies for periodization; However, there is antidotal evidence that
supports that the concept works.
"Periodization of training" means "dividing
training up
into periods". Each training period or phase is dominated by one
training goal such as increase - speed, strength, and flexibility;
enhance endurance; reduce effects of fatigue;
achieve maximum performance.
The phases are not totally
devoted to one training mode, but the percentages of the emphasis
placed on the trainin goals change from the beginning to the end of
each competitive season.
The following generic, periodized annual training plan for multiple competitions is divided into phases with Macro and Micro cycles:
The ideal trainng plan should feature:
Annual Training Program An annual training program is necessary to maximize performance.
It is based on the concept of periodization, which divides the annual plan into training phases, and the principles of training. An annual training program is necessary to maximize performance. In principle, this means that athletes must train continually for 11 months, then reduce the amount of work during the last month. This work should vary from regular training to facilitate physiological, psychological, and CNS rest and regeneration before beginning another year of training.
The purpose of a Training Plan - Pro Water Polo The purpose of a Training Plan is to identify the work to be carried out to achieve ... when planning the annual and long term training programs for their athletes.

- Page 2 Panasonic TX-26LMD70 Review
- Page 3 Panasonic TX-26LMD70 Review
- Page 4 Feature Table Review
Key Specifications
- Review Price: £437.00
Panasonic, it seems, can do no wrong in the flat TV world right now. Every recent LCD or plasma TV we've tested from the brand has delivered the goods in no uncertain terms. So how come the Overall mark at the top of this review of Panasonic's 26in TX-26LMD70 only reads a solid seven rather than a spectacular nine or ten? Well…
There's nothing about the TV's design to cause consternation. Its black finish is robust enough and its lines cool enough to make for a pleasant presence in your room. The rear end sticks out a bit further than most LCDs, perhaps, but we're only talking about three or four centimetres.
The 26LMD70's connections, too, seem fair enough. Twin HDMIs are provided for digital high definition duties, component video is provided for analogue HD and progressive duties, and happily there's a D-Sub PC input so that you can double the screen up as a PC monitor. We find this sort of dual functionality particularly handy on 26in screens, since their size means they are much more likely than bigger screens to find a place in a bedroom or study – places where 'utility' features like PC and TV compatibility come more into their own.
At this point we should probably say that however good first impressions of it appear to be, the 26LMD70 is actually Panasonic's entry-level 26in TV. And so it's not reasonable to expect it to sport the same sort of feature count or talent as the brand's other ranges. This provides the first real clue to the OK rather than great mark we've given the TV – though actually, from a cursory glance at the TV's specifications sheet, it's not immediately obvious where the inevitable feature trimming has taken place.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

Society Brand Reputation
A Society Brand. That's an interesting way of phrasing the importance of corporate responsibility for companies and its impact on stakeholders. An article in PRWeek described a study by StockWell where they interviewed 26 financial leaders in the UK — financial analysts, investment bankers, investors, brokers, risk officers and IR directors — about corporate reputation today. Interestingly, they learned that financial performance is not the end-all be-all of what drives a company's reputation. Although financial value is fundamental to a company's reputation, the relationship with the wider community is now recognized as having the potential to put that reputation and financial value at risk, especially if tampered with. The moneyed group now strongly believes that reputation is more important than ever and that a strong "society brand" is critical to a company's long-term commercial future. As the report says, "…non-financial performance factors now have a significant bearing on corporate valuations and investment decisions."
However, this group is very sceptical of CSR initiatives and CSR reports and do not see them as solving reputational challenges. Yet, that does not surprise me when it comes to financial perspectives on CSR. Although they may be perceived as window dressing, CSR is not. It focuses leadership and as government directs fewer resources towards citizen well-being such as health and education, companies have a critical role in safeguarding families and communities in these areas. What surprised me was that nearly half of these financial leaders could not name three companies that had reputable Society Brand reputations and 12% could not even name one company that fit this bill. Paltry to say the least.
- Almost all (96%) saw reputation as having increased in importance over the past few years.
- Over two-thirds (69%) considered reputation a critical area for corporate risk management.
- Four-fifths (80%) agree that a strong Society Brand is critical to a company's long term commercial future.
- More than half felt there was too much emphasis on the Financial Brand.
- 81% saw Society Brand as relevant to all investors, not just SRI funds.
- 46% felt that a Society Brand was reasonably or very relevant to investment decisions.
- 46% couldn't list three companies with a good Society Brand.
- 61% agreed that companies with a poor Society Brand trade at a discount as markets and analysts build in reputational risk.

Did you know there's a connection between the condition of your living space & surrounding environment AND your mood, productivity, creativity and stress level? A cluttered environment saps your energy and robs you of a creative flow, positive outcomes & precious time. Living in, or working with, physical or mental chaos… can change your mood like *SNAP* that! And sometimes it's a lot harder to deal with THAT than the actual task of organizing it all. The connection happens unconsciously. You don't wake up and say, 'my day is going to be havoc today'…it just happens. As you go about your morning you find yourself asking…. 'Where are my keys?' 'What did I do with that letter?' 'Where is Johnny's other sneaker?' And then before you know it, you're behind schedule, talking to yourself and walking around in circles.
When you're always looking for things that should be at your fingertips, you spend too much important & precious time looking. Clarity replaces Clutter!! We live in a society which places many demands on our time. And one thing is for sure….we don't have time to waste searching for that one thing we need before we can walk out the door, that one folder we need for the meeting or the school papers Suzi needs in her backpack before the bus gets here. If you create a place for everything and put everything in it's place …that's better than half the battle…..it demolishes the battle. You find things in a *SNAP*.
Whether it's your office, kitchen, garage, playroom, kitchen cabinets, dresser drawers… whatever it is…. …. it's time to get back on track with a more efficient, harmonious space AND the next thing you know… you have a more efficient, harmonious life!
Be aware of your condition and declutter what you can so today is a breeze.
Peace & Blessings,

Leaders from across the Great Lakes Bay Region recognize the powerful and inseparable linkage between economic success and health. The region's health will be much greater with a strong regional economy which is in turn, only possible with a healthy population.
The mission of THRIVE is to deliver improved health and sustained economic growth in our communities.
The Michigan Health Improvement Alliance, Inc. (MiHIA) and the Great Lakes Bay Regional Alliance (GLBRA) are collaborating to co-lead the THRIVE initiative to bring high-value impact & benefit to our community citizens, and other regional organizations and institutions. Due to the unique work and transformative nature of our mission, and the full engagement of sectors for support, THRIVE has caught the attention of national and state thought leaders, and established foundations as we build our region into one of health excellence and sustained economic growth.
Keys to Success: Collaboration & Commitment
Innovative leaders across the country are taking specific steps to integrate health and economy based on the powerful evidence that the two are inseparable and have a significant impact on families, businesses and community resources.
In our region, we are starting from a position of strength, with many advantages and several known areas that require study and improvement. The region can boast strong and cohesive communities as well as a wealth of excellent resources dedicated to serving the region's health and medical needs
Despite our strengths and resources, national and local data still reinforce that we have not yet achieved a community of health excellence across our region. Problem indicators resemble the rest of the nation: the opioid epidemic, the continued deteriorating health outcomes and preventable mortality among the most economically disadvantaged, the lack of mental health professionals, and skyrocketing preventable ailments.
The key to fixing these health issues and building a stronger regional economy is understanding the current status and how to improve it with a comprehensive master plan including: systems thinking and aligning our efforts across sectors, access to basic services and advanced specialties, public health education and prevention of chronic disease, educational attainment and job readiness, robust employment opportunities, appropriate cost and quality of services delivering high value for community stakeholders, reducing barriers to health and economic success for all.
Strategy in Action:
Stewarding Health and the Economy with THRIVE
In the case studies, learn more about THRIVE's cross-sector collaboration, highlighting the intertwined nature of health and economy and their significant impact on the region.

How does one communicate their authenticity and ability to lead to others effectively? Can you just show up and say, "I'm here. I'm a leader. Let's go."? Is there some badge you wear when you're ready that says, "Certified Leader", so that everyone knows we are capable of leading them?
Not always that simple, right? That's because we communicate our leadership to others via the practices that help us lead.
Leadership is all about practice. Now, that's not to say that there aren't titles and roles that we might have or seek or be given that act as badges in a way. And yet, when any one of us steps into those roles, people are looking at the ways that we show up, the ways that we take action, the ways that we practice leadership in order to evaluate how they engage with or follow or collaborate with us.
So what are those practices? We've developed a list of 15 leadership practices that when studied and learned and practiced effectively can truly transform any one of us into a leader who will be recognized as such through our actions.
Here they are:
- Listening Deeply
- Engaging Joy & Humor
- Living Compassion & Kindness
- Being Present & Generous
- Practicing Observation & Non-Judgment
- Connecting to Higher-Purpose
- Communicating Values
- Identifying Feelings & Needs
- Hosting Conversations
- Holding & Honoring Boundaries
- Understanding Choice & Control
- Dealing with Dualities & Paradoxes
- Navigating Power Dynamics
- Practicing Forgiveness
- Being Accountable
Now, you have the list. Maybe you're thinking, "This is my magic wand. I'll review these tonight and tomorrow show up in a new or different way." I hope you're inspired and thinking that… truly. And the challenge here is to really dive into these practices as we would a workout regiment. Doing 15 pushups tonight will not radically shift our arm strength and core, and yet doing 15 pushups every night and getting feedback and support in refining our form will over time fundamentally change our arm strength and core.
So, if you want to take your practice to the next level. Stay tuned because we are developing an Authentic Leadership Bootcamp that might be just the thing that you are looking for — we plan to release it by June 2019.

In a 5-3 ruling, the United States Supreme Court has struck down three of the four major sections of Arizona's SB 1070 immigration law, while leaving the most controversial provision, which asks police to check the immigration status of those stopped for another violation. The Court stated that "without the benefit of a definitive interpretation" of the provision by Arizona state courts, they were unable to conclude whether or not it conflicted with federal immigration law. The Court left itself open to reviewing further challenges of the provision in the future after it is implemented and its impact can be better determined.
The lineup of the Court was interesting. Only eight justices reviewed the case after Associate Justice Elena Kagan recused herself based on her service as President Obama's Solicitor General when the administration chose to challenge the law. Chief Justice John Roberts departed from the conservative side of the Court to be the fifth and deciding vote in the decision. The move was likely more practical than ideological: a four-to-four tie would have meant upholding the Ninth Circuit's decision, which struck down all of the law's provisions; Roberts likely influenced allowing the one remaining provision to survive.
The Court's ruling has received mixed reviews from all ends of the political spectrum, from President Obama's cautious endorsement to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer's declaring it a victory. Many appear dissatisfied that no firm determination on the validity of the "papers, please" provision was reached and expect further litigation on the issue.

The BotBots have begun to make into the wild via Amazon in the US (and stores in Asia). One of the first packs released are the "Techie Team" packs including two members of the Techie Team with members from the other teams thrown in for fun (and to encourage trading). Today I kick off my BotBots reviews with a look at the "Techie Team" Pack #2 which includes:
Paramount Pictures has released a new poster for the upcoming "Bumblebee" live action movie. The poster has a very retro quality to it, showing Bumblebee, Charlie and Agent Burns in the sky over the Golden Gate Bridge.
On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie (Hailee Steinfeld), on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary, yellow VW bug.
After a couple weeks of the new "Siege" Transformers figures starting to make their way into the hands of fans across the United States, BWTF affiliate Entertainment Earth has put up pre-orders for the first wave of figures! Even better? They have the first wave of Deluxes in stock now! The Battlemasters are out of stock but once the link is up I will add it to the list below. Follow the links below to order your figures and support BWTF!
In October 2018 Hasbro gathered select Fan Media outlets in New York City to not only see the upcoming "Transformers: Siege" but also to experience these figures firsthand! Check out my report from the Hasbro "Transformers: Siege" unboxing event.
In the past few years, Metal Earth put out a series of Transformers model kits. These were based on G1 versions of characters like Optimus Prime and Soundwave. Each was made out of metal and offered quite a challenge to assemble. Fast forward to 2018 and the are following up these model kits with Metal Earth Legends. These are stylized, super-deformed style figures featuring characters such as Bumblebee, Soundwave and Shockwave.
"The Goldbergs" is an American sitcom that started in 2013. Set in the 80's, this show follows Adam and his life partly told through reenactments of videos series producer and creator Adam F. Goldberg recorded during his childhood. Naturally, for any kid in the 80's toys would come into play. Among the various toys shown on this program are Transformers! "The Goldbergs" has shown Transformers figures before, even working them into a storyline in one episode. Now the Robots in Disguise have appeared again!
Space Ape has released details for this weekend's "Earth Wars" Alliance event! Check them out below:
5-Star Shards event this weekend and 5-Star Legacy Crystals are arriving in the game!

- Up to 60 Guardian Crystals each containing 5, 4 or 3-Star Shards!
With the release of Optimal Optimus and all the announced Amazon exclusives for the Prime Trilogy, it seemed to many fans (yours truly included) that the "Power of the Primes" was over, especially with "Siege" figures beginning to show up at US retail. However, two new listings on the Midtown Comics web site reveal two more figures are on their way! The listings are:
Violent and nearly uncontrollable at times, Twin Twist is an unusual Autobot that even Optimus Prime sometimes expresses concern about. Good thing he's on their side! Check out my review and gallery of "Titans Return" Twin Twist.

The Philadelphia Cookbook
We collaborated with Philadelphia cream cheese to produce branded cookery books which supported Kraft's advertising campaign promoting Philadelphia as an ingredient for quick, easy and delicious meals. The books were used by Philadelphia as gifts and incentives.
In addition to this, PRH also sold the book to a range of our book trade customers including Amazon. This gave the Philadelphia brand a massive amount of exposure in a sector that is not their core market. Sales are now in excess of 400,000 copies – and thanks to the royalty payment they receive on sales of the book in the book trade, this partnership has benefitted Kraft not only in terms of reach and exposure, but has also been a source of incremental revenue.

For the past year or so, we've enjoyed a wonderfully productive relationship with DORA (DevOps Research & Assessment LLC). While our team is very much rooted in face-to-face, on-site assessments and training delivery, DORA changed the game with the introduction of a survey driven virtual assessment, which used enhanced data modelling perfected over several years. Suddenly, we were able to interview hundreds of employees in a matter of days and gain valuable insight into a business unit's operation, comparing it to high performing competitors in the same industry.
It was, and is, a great opportunity for businesses to learn how best to drive their technology transformation forward.
In the last few weeks, DORA broke the exciting news that they had been acquired by Google's Cloud division. In many ways it's a natural fit, with both organisations known for their continued hard work in the DevOps ecosystems. While DORA is known for its data-driven approach toward helping teams automate their processes and achieve a better work balance, Google Cloud is hailed for its contribution to the open source community and its exemplary research into how DevOps teams function. The two organisations really are a perfect match.
We wish the DORA team every success in their new beginning, and look forward to the valuable contribution they continue to make as part of Google Cloud.

It's important to see grammar as the nuts and bolts of any language.
If all you do is commit lists and lists of words to heart, you're not going to know exactly how to build them together. This is why we need to perfect our grammar.
You need to get down and dirty with the rules if you're ever going to become fluent in the language.
It may not sound as exciting as watching German movies or reading interesting novels, but it's exactly those types of works that you'll be able to fully appreciate and adore once you nail the rules.
To get beginners up and running, here are five German grammar rules that are worth learning.
5 German Grammar Rules to Get Beginners up and Running
1. A Noun's Gender Determines Its Definite Article
One of the main differences between English and German is noun genders. In German, nouns are either masculine, feminine or neutral. In addition, their definite and indefinite articles (the, a/an) depend on their case.
Cases affect nouns, and their case changes if they are the object, subject or indirect object in a sentence. Depending on the noun's gender and sentence case, we might need to change their definite or indefinite article. You can see how genders and cases affect articles in this really useful table.
Here are five examples of this in action:
Der Hund ist braun. (The dog is brown.)
As Hund is a masculine noun and the subject of this sentence, it has to take der (the).
Ich sehe den Hund. (I see the dog.)
In this instance, the dog is the object of the sentence. This means it's in the accusative case, so der changes to den.
Ich kaufe dem Hund das Essen. (I buy the dog the food.)
Here, the dog is in the dative case as it's now the indefinite object. Therefore der becomes dem.
Ich kaufe das Essen des Hunds. (I buy the food of the dog.)
The genitive case is used to show possession so, as the food belongs to the dog in the above sentence, we use the genitive masculine definite article, des. More often than not, nouns after des usually add an -s or –es to the end, which is why Hund has turned into Hunds.
Den Mann beißt der Hund. (The dog bites the man.)
At first glance, you might think the above sentence would translate as "the man bites the dog." However, we should know that it's the other way around. The German case system shows us the difference between who or what is acting and who or what is acted upon. (In English, which has no case system, word order is more important because we don't have these cues.)
Take a look at the sentence again. Masculine nouns take den when they are in the accusative case, so that means the man must be the one being bit. Confusing? You're telling me! But, trust me, with time you'll start to pick this up.
2. Adjective Endings Must Agree with a Noun's Gender and Case
Not only do genders and cases dictate definite articles, but they also dictate the ending of any preceding adjectives. Again, just like with definite and indefinite articles, there are loads of handy tables to help you figure out which ending you need to use.
Here are five examples to show you adjective endings when the adjective is preceded by a definite article:
Der schwarze Hund hat Hunger. (The black dog is hungry.)
As dog is masculine and in the nominative case we need to add an -e to the end of schwarz (black) when it follows a definite article.
Ich habe einen schwarzen Hund gefunden. (I found a black dog.)
In the above sentence, the dog is the object—meaning it's now in the accusative case—and follows the indefinite article, so takes an -en ending.
Das Essen des alten Hunds ist hier. (The old dog's food is here.)
Genitive masculine nouns require their adjectives to end in -en.
Ich gebe dem alten Hund das Essen. (I am giving the food to the old dog.)
As the dog is the indefinite object in this sentence, it takes the dative case so alt (old) ends in -en.
Heißer Tee schmeckt gut. (Hot tea is tasty.)
If there is no definite article before the noun, the adjective ending still changes. In this case, tea is masculine so heiß (hot) takes an -er ending. Typically, when an adjective is not preceded by a definite or indefinite article that already shows the gender and case, the adjective makes up for this lack.
For example, in der heiße Tee (the hot tee), der already shows us that the noun is masculine and thus the adjective only takes –e. However, if we say heißer Tee (hot tee), the adjective takes -er because there is no definite article that already tells us the noun is masculine. This general rule applies to adjective endings for case, number and gender.
3. Verbs (Usually) Come Second in a Sentence
German verbs are stubborn things. They're not budging from their second position in a sentence. But, of course, as with most things German, there are exceptions to the second position rule. The following sentences explain where your verbs need to go:
Ich sehe den Hund. (I see the dog.)
This shows the classic verb placement. In all main clauses the verb—in this case sehen (to see)—takes second place after the subject.
Ich sehe den Hund und ich gebe ihm das Essen. (I see the dog and give him the food.)
Here we have two clauses joined together by und (and). But that doesn't change the placement of the two clauses' verbs. In both cases, they come second after the subject.
Ich gebe dem Hund das Essen, weil er Hunger hat. (I give the dog the food because he is hungry.)
This sentence is made up of two clauses, just like the above example, however the verb in the second one is right at the end. The reason for this is that the final part of the sentence is a subordinate clause.
The main rule of thumb with subordinate clauses is conjunction first, verb last. Simply put, weil (because) is one of a few verbs which will always send the following verb to the end of the clause.
Weil ich ein Haustier wollte, kaufte ich einen Hund. (Because I wanted a pet, I bought a dog.)
In this sentence, the whole "verb second" rule is blown right out of the water. It starts off with a subordinate clause so, as explained above, the weil sends the verb to the end of the clause.
Then we have what is known as the "verb comma verb" rule. After a verb and comma, we need the verb from the next clause straight away. So in the above example, our verb comma verb is wollte, kaufte (wanted, bought).
Ich habe einen Hund gekauft. (I bought a dog.)
For the German present perfect tense you will need a form of haben or sein as well as a past participle. The form of haben or sein goes in second position, as in all basic sentences. But, the past participle is sent to the end of the sentence.
4. Plurals Are Formed in Various Ways
In English, virtually all plurals are formed by adding an "s" to the end of the original word. In German, instead of an -s, plurals are formed in various ways.
One fairly common way is by adding an -e. However, just like in English, there are plenty of exceptions to this rule (just think of "fish" and "sheep" in English). Below are five quick examples of the most common plural forms in German:
A) der Hund (dog) → die Hunde (dogs)
It's also important to note that all plural nouns take die as their definite article.
B) die Banane (the banana) → die Bananen (bananas)
If a word already ends in -e, then the plural usually just involves adding an –n.
C) das Auto (the car) → die Autos (cars)
Any nouns which come from foreign words will form their plural by adding an -s.
D) der Mann (the man) → die Männer (men)
Some plurals are formed by adding an umlaut as well as a new ending. In this case Mann becomes Männer.
E) der Vater (the father) → die Väter (fathers)
Many nouns that end in -el or -er create their plural by adding an umlaut. So Vater becomes Väter.
Another crazy thing to watch out for is that plural forms in German can change according to their case! For example, in the dative case Väter would become Vätern.
5. "You" Is Either Formal or Informal
There are two different forms of "you" in German. If you're speaking to a relative, friend or child, you will use the informal du form. If you're speaking or writing to someone who you don't know, or to a colleague at work, you will use Sie, the formal form of "you."
Ich liebe dich. (I love you.)
Dich is the informal accusative form of du.
Geben Sie mir bitte das Essen. (Please give me the food.)
Sie is the formal "you."
Haben Sie schon gegessen? (Have you already eaten?)
Remember that Sie always needs a capital letter when it means "you."
Wie geht es Ihnen? (How are you?)
In the dative case Sie becomes Ihnen, which also needs to be capitalized.
Ich hab's dir gegeben. (I gave it to you.)
For the dative informal you, we need to use dir.
So there we have the basics of five main German grammar points. It may seem quite difficult at first, but the more you persevere, the easier it becomes. Just remember the German saying Übung macht den Meister, practice makes perfect! (Literally: Practice makes the master.)

Set Lists
Was Won
June 25 and 27,
Zeppelin - How the West Was Won
Los Angeles
6/25/72 & Long Beach
The release of How the West
Was Won was released the same day as their video, Led Zeppelin
adding to small amount of live Led Zeppelin that was previously
How the West Was Won is a
tremendous collection of Led Zeppelin music on tour for their 1972
tour that includes several songs from their yet to be released
album, Houses of
the Holy. This three disc set is a composite of
their performances on July 25, and 27, 1972, in Southern
California. The flow replicates a complete concert and is a
must have for any Led Zeppelin fan.
The musical brilliance
begins on disc one and does not let up throughout the album. The show begins with shorter blues
oriented material with strong versions of some of their best songs
including "Heartbreaker" and "Since I've Been Loving
You." They slip in a tremendous version of the
"Over the Hills and Far Away." Unlike the studio version,
this takes a more electric tone, where as the original has an acoustic folk feel.
Later in the set, the band plays three acoustic songs which are
fabulous, featuring some great mandolin playing by John Paul
on disc two and continuing throughout the collection, the band
performs their more lengthy improvisational numbers. Both
"Dazed and Confused" and "Whole Lotta Love"
comfortably clock in at over 20 minutes each. The rendition of
"Dazed and Confused" includes Jimmy Pages violin bow
expedition, but just as impressive is they way incorporate the
rhythmically based track "The Crunge" from their House
of the Holy album within the song, nice segue. Not surprising,
"Whole Lotta Love" incorporates a medley of various songs.
When they finally get back to the theme of "Whole Lotta
Love," John Bonham plays some furious patterns. Apparently a
warm up for the two songs that follow "Rock and Roll" and
"The Ocean" that both emphasize the tightness of Led
Zeppelin's rhythm section, as well as Jimmy Page quickness on the fret board.
They close the disc strongly with a track from
the blues legend Willie Dixon "Bring it on Home."
Led Zeppelin's three disc
set How the West
Was Won is an incredible album. For fans that already have the
other three live Led Zeppelin releases there is quite a bit of
duplication. However, do not let that stop you from getting
this. Barry Small ©

most important omission is " Tangerine as no other live album
to date includes this track. The other songs performed, but not on
the album are "Louie Louie," "Thank You," and
"Communication Breakdown." Perhaps there are reasons
that additional songs were left off due to tape problems, but if not
they should have been included.

You guys, I started my swanky job. It was fantastic except for the following: nobody seems to be sure exactly why I was hired, outside of one specific task that will take maybe 1/20 of my contracted hours. I got the feeling that they hoped I'd be able to branch them out into more outreach, but they're really uncomfortable with moving into more overtly political strategies and I felt some pushback on anything resembling confrontation. They want me to lobby local officials to change a specific thing, but they don't want me to make said officials uncomfortable at all. They have been sending nice letters to these officials for years to no effect. I think that perhaps I just need to make the case that it's time for a new strategy, so I wrote a short paper. I would love love love any critique, because if I don't nail this they won't go for it. It's not in their wheelhouse. They have pictures of puppies on their Facebook page, which is soothing but not really helpful as far as creating new activists. You guys unpack this sort of stuff all the time, and I'm just learning, so I thought I'd offer it up for discussion.
It's here.
