Drinking three or more alcoholic beverages a day may raise the risk for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage at a much younger age than typical, researchers found.
These strokes occurred at an average age of 60 with such high alcohol consumption, 14 years earlier than seen without heavy drinking (P<0.0001), Charlotte Cordonnier, MD, PhD, of the University of Lille Nord de France in Lille, France, and colleagues,
Heavy drinking also predicted a near doubling in 2-year mortality risk after a deep intracerebral hemorrhage before age 60, the group reported in the Sept. 11 issue of Neurology.
"Clinicians should keep in mind that alcohol has an impact on vital outcome among young patients with intracerebral hemorrhage," they wrote.
Action Points
- Heavy alcohol intake was associated with the occurrence of intracranial hemorrhage at a relatively young age.
- Note that platelet counts and prothrombin ratio were significantly lower among heavy alcohol drinkers.
"Nevertheless, it only remains a risk factor and not a cause in itself," they cautioned.
Heavy drinking has consistently turned up as a risk factor for this type of stroke, but why hasn't been clear.
The researchers looked deeper into the link in the prospective, observational Prognosis of InTra-Cerebral Hemorrhage (PITCH) cohort of 562 consecutive adults with a spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage at a single university hospital in France. CT scans were performed at admission in all patients.
Head trauma, tumor, hemorrhagic transformation of an ischemic stroke, and other cases with clear causes were excluded.
Fully 25% of the cohort qualified as heavy drinkers of 300 g or more of alcohol per week, the equivalent of three drinks per day, which the researchers noted reflected the high prevalence of alcoholism in the region.
These patients were, on multivariate analysis:
- Younger at their stroke (odds ratio 0.97 for each year of age, 95% CI 0.95 to 0.98)
- Less likely to have a history of ischemic heart disease (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.77)
- More likely to be smokers (OR 3.96, 95% CI 2.43 to 6.46)
Complications and hospital length of stay were similar between groups. Prevalence of living independently post-hemorrhage didn't differ significantly either.
However, hemorrhage characteristics were different for the heavy drinkers. Compared with intracranial hemorrhage patients with more moderate habits or no alcohol consumption, independent factors based on an imaging-based model were:
- Nonlobular location in the brain (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.05 to 2.77)
- Less severe diffuse white matter abnormalities on CT (OR 0.76 per one-step increase, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.73)
- Lower platelet counts (P=0.01)
- Lower prothrombin ratio (P=0.017)
With regard to 2-year mortality, heavy alcohol intake was predictive of death among patients younger than age 60 with a nonlobar intracerebral hemorrhage (HR 1.96, 95% CI 1.06 to 3.63). However, heaving drinking did not influence outcomes in patients with lobar hemorrhages that were older or younger than 60.
The higher likelihood of deep or posterior fossa locations, suggested a link with small-vessel disease, the researchers noted.
"Regarding management, there might be a place for hemostatic strategies in the acute phase among young patients with deep intracranial hemorrhage and alcohol abuse," they wrote.
The group cautioned that drinkers may have under-reported their alcohol intake, which could have contributed bias and underestimated the influence of heavy consumptions.

- Primary Prevention of Stroke
- Guidelines for the Prevention of Stroke in Patients with Stroke or TIA
The study was supported by the University Lille Nord de France and the Association pour le Développement de la Recherche et de l'Innovation dans le Nord-Pas de Calais (ADRINORD).
Cordonnier reported being an investigator in drug trials for sanofi-aventis (BOREALIS), Photothera (NEST3), and Brainsgate (Impact-24), for which honoraria were paid to ADRINORD.

Star Trek Into Darkness Berlin Premiere Pictures
Chris Pine and Zoe Saldana Bring the Star Trek Crew to Germany
Chris Pine and Zoe Saldana Bring the Star Trek Crew to Germany
Chris Pine, Zoe Saldana and Zachary Quinto joined their Star Trek Into Darkness castmates Alice Eve and Simon Pegg, along with director J.J. Abrams, for the film's German premiere in Berlin yesterday following a morning press conference. Zoe Saldana stunned in a short and colourful Balmain number, while Alice went for a glamorous Emilio Pucci gown. Before heading into the premiere, Zoe, Alice and Zachary all threw up the signature Star Trek Vulcan salute.
While Chris has been showcasing the latest instalment of the Star Trek series with his crew, including in Sydney last week, his personal life has taken a different turn. Chris and model girlfriend Dominique Piek recently split after nearly a year of dating, which he confirmed while at this year's CinemaCon. Chris has plenty to keep him busy, though, since promotions for the Star Trek sequel will continue until the sci-fi classic opens on May 9, and even later in the US.

Data is a big deal. It's people's private information, after all. And it's an even larger concern with the onset of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). GDPR focuses on the EU, but companies around the world are certainly feeling the impact of the new law as well.
Simply put, GDPR is about protecting an individual's personal data – biometric data, location data, name, address, email address, etc. It builds on the 1995 Data Protection Directive, a regulation that initially set data security standards for the EU in 1995. Now, under GDPR, EU personal data protection has been further strengthened and companies must be more explicit about their data collection and processing practices. At the same time, EU individuals are empowered with the enhanced rights to notice, access, and correction of their personal information.
Individuals. Does this mean employees too? You bet. For Workforce Ready customers feeling the impact of GDPR compliance regulations, we've improved the data retention, deletion, and consent functionalities of the solution. In addition to compliance, these enhanced features help companies with or without EU employees – streamline data retention and removal processes.
Data retention policies: Most companies want two things when it comes to data retention – minimize the amount of employee data stored in Workforce Ready and hold data that must be stored no longer than necessary. We understand; so, with the June Workforce Ready release came the ability to automatically eliminate and term files or data sets. You determine your own retention policy start and end dates and define them in your solution. Once you set a retention policy for a certain data type, Workforce Ready will automate the removal of data that is marked as older than the retention period. The data is sent to a queue for removal when the retention period has lapsed, meaning deletion is not instantaneous. This helps ensure system performance isn't impacted, as deleted or anonymized data is permanent and cannot be undone or recovered.
Employee data removal: On the other side of the coin is an employee requesting the removal of information. You can accommodate data removal requests while still adhering to your company-wide data retention requirements. The first step is to determine if a request is legitimate. If it is, then you can use this feature to remove data points. The system will cross-reference what information falls within data retention requirements and queue up only what falls outside your policy for removal.
Applicant consent: We've made it possible for job candidates applying for positions to agree that yes, you can hold their information in your database. Applicants can provide permissions when creating an applicant account or after they create an account under "My Profile." If consent is granted, the data is retained. If not, it's removed.
There are a few resources you should know about as well.
Workforce Ready Data Protection FAQ: Hosted on the Kronos Community and available via knowledge base article number 000064538, this document contains information on the international Workforce Ready features and functionality that you can use to support your data protection processes.
Training in My Learning: For an 11-page guide on setting and using the data retention functionality in Workforce Ready, go to Account > My Learning > Administrator—General > 1. Settings in your solution.
GDPR Overview Presentation: Check out this brief, 5-minute presentation recording on how Workforce Ready helps you address your GDPR needs from a workforce perspective.
Data privacy is a serious concern, but we're here with upgraded compliance tools on the Workforce Ready side. With our enhanced functionality, you can your employees' data concerns and focus your attention where it matters most.
Note: In addition to being heavily impacted by local law and regulation, data privacy compliance is a highly business-specific and fact dependent endeavor, and you should consult your legal advisor for detailed guidance before proceeding with a personal data protection plan. The discussion provided above is for informational purposes only, is not customer specific, and is subject to change.

My Rutland Life
Christmas 2015 in Rutland
Like most of England, Rutland is having an unseasonably warm December, and in the run up to Christmas our markets and outdoor activities have been damp and blustery rather than 'deep and crisp and even'. Still, the streets of Oakham, Uppingham and Stamford are shining brightly thanks to the festive decorations and individual shops have really gone to town. My foray to Uppingham Christmas Market at the beginning of December was a blur of sloe... Continue reading
Winter is coming…
This afternoon's walk was a hint of things to come… Wellies were definitely needed: it was squelchy and slippy and only the dog was confident on her feet! But despite the wind, it was not cold, and the late afternoon sun sinking behind the fir plantation was gorgeous.
Autumn Days at Rutland Water
Rutland Water is a year-round destination and this autumn has been looking beautiful, with sunny days and autumn colour around the woods. Normanton Church was looking its best last weekend, on an afternoon so still that its reflection was picture-perfect and some lucky souls were drifting silently above the lake in a Virgin hot-air balloon (but too far away for a photo). There were cyclists, walkers, kids playing, blokes fishing, couples holding hands and lots... Continue reading
Autumn in Rutland has been fantastic
The Autumn colours in Rutland have been spectacular. I am sure that the 'other' Rutland in Vermont USA could not better our 'fall' colour this year. Every journey, no matter how short, has been a joy. The trees have been glowing, and the berries are like jewels. If the old wives' tales have any basis in fact, then we really are in for a hard winter.
Rutland is snowed in
Like much of Britain, Rutland has been hit by the unseasonable snow. First, an update on Rutland weather and driving conditions on this strangely silent Sunday morning: the A6121 Stamford road that joins the A47 was treacherous first thing and an accident on the A47 at the Barrowden turning (by Morcott Windmill) has been causing difficulties. Drifting snow has been creating chaos on the B664 to Market Harborough (farmer towed out friends whose journey this... Continue reading
It feels like spring in Rutland
Well, maybe the icy wind is wintry, but the robin's egg-blue sky and the bright sun says spring, and this particular Rutland village gives every indication of waking from winter sleep to a new year: dog-walking, gossiping on the high street and talking about gardening (the snowdrops are up at last). My morning dog-walk was accompanied, for the first time, by quite a few decibels of bird-song and some species have already started nesting, evident... Continue reading
Recycling in Rutland!
Today I've been recycling. It has not involved Rutland recycling's colour-coded three-bin system and alternate week collections… No, it's more like skip diving. An overgrown field beside the bridle path has undergone a transformation. Ignored for many years, nature had taken it over: half an acre of brambles ringed by ash trees (oh dear) … impenetrable except by rabbits. Suddenly, the farmer has decided to put it back into use, and sent in the diggers,... Continue reading
Rutland Stone Wall Repair
The next stage of my Rutland Renovation is the crumbling but beautiful stone wall that is the boundary between next door and me. It looks at least as old as the cottage, built in various sections over 250 years. When I bought my Rutland cottage the wall was virtually hidden under ivy growing from next door. When that went, the damage was clear to see. Of course, there was some general wear and tear, but... Continue reading
Remembrance Day in a Rutland village
This morning I've been at one of Rutland's many Remembrance Day services, here in Morcott. The sun shone, everyone wore a poppy and I did a fair impersonation of a Chelsea Pensioner by wearing a red coat and black trousers: I just needed a three-cornered hat to complete the picture. The past and the present armed forces were equally in our thoughts. The past was with us in the list of 10 village men who... Continue reading
Summer in Rutland (at last)
I know most of the country is basking in sunshine today. But I just had to share two sightings this morning, while the dog and I were walking. The first was blue sky (not seen for longer than I can remember). The second was a small group of bee orchids. I have never seen this plant before, and was thrilled to find it, on the edge of a small copse, with its roots in the... Continue reading

A new liquid membrane traps small particles and substances while letting larger objects pass through (Sci. Adv. 2018, DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.aat3276). The counterintuitive filter (shown trapping small glass beads and letting a larger one pass through), designed by a team at Pennsylvania State University, takes advantage of soap films' self-healing properties, and with a little chemical help, it can last hours before rupturing. Researchers say the films might one day facilitate cleaner surgeries, less-smelly waterless toilets, and new pest control techniques.

Cataracts | Prevent the Leading Cause of Blindness
June is National Cataract Awareness month and awareness is vital as cataracts are the leading cause of blindness globally in people over 40 years old. Not good! Cataracts affect 22 million Americans and typically begins to affect your vision after age 60, although some develop as early as their 40's. By the time you turn 80 you have a 50% chance of having a cataract or having undergone cataract surgery. Those are odds you don't want to mess around with.
Cataracts cloud the lens of your eyes and makes it difficult for people to see the world around them. Making it difficult for every day life – reading, driving, watching TV, using the computer and mobile phone.
What are cataracts?
Cataracts are the clouding of the eye's natural lens, which lies behind the iris and the pupil.
There are different types based on where they develop in your eye:
- Subcapsular – occurs at the back of the lens. Those with diabetes or taking high doses of steroid medications are at greater risk.
- Nuclear – occurs deep in the central zone of the lens causing it to become yellow or brown. Typically associated with aging.
- Cortical – occurs in the lens cortex, surrounding the nucleus. A white, wedge-like opacities that start in the periphery of the lens & work their way to the center.
- Congenital – present at birth or form during baby's first year, less common.
- Secondary – caused by disease (typically Diabetes or Glaucoma) or medications.
- Traumatic – develop after an injury to the eye, this could take several years to happen.
- Radiation – form after a person undergoes radiation treatment for cancer.
What causes Cataracts?
The lens inside the eye is made of water & protein, which is arranged in a way that keeps the lens clear and lets light pass through. As we get older some of this protein can clump together and cloud areas of the lens. Introducing the cataract. An unwelcomed enemy of the eye. Over time this cataract can grow larger & cloud more of the lens, making it hard to see. In addition to aging her are other risk factors:
- An overproduction of oxidants (oxygen molecules that have been chemically altered due to normal daily life)
- Smoking
- Obesity
- Diabetes
- Hypertension
- Too much sun exposure
- High myopia
- Heavy alcohol use
- High blood pressure
- Previous eye injury or surgery
- Long-term use of steroids & other medications
- Statin medicines for cholesterol reduction
- Hormone replacement therapy
- Exposure to radiation from x-rays & cancer treatments
- Family history
What are the symptoms?
Typically they start out small and have little effect on your vision with the first sign being your vision is a little blurred.
- Clouded, blurred or dim vision
- Trouble seeing at night
- Sensitivity to light and glare
- Fading or yellowing of colors
- Increased sensitivity to glare
- Halos surrounding lights
- Double vision in the affected eye
- A need for frequent changes in prescription glasses
How can this be treated?
Surgery is the most common way to treat cataracts. However, if you are unable or not interested, your doctor can help manage symptoms through stronger eyeglasses, strong bifocals, magnifying lenses & sunglasses with anti-glare coating.
When cataracts prevent you from your daily activities surgery will likely be your best bet. Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed surgery in the U.S. for more than 3 million Americans each year.
Phacoemulsification surgery – the use of ultrasound waves to break the lens apart and remove the pieces.
Extracapsular surgery – removing the cloudy part of the lens through a long incision in the cornea. An artificial intraocular lens is placed where the natural lens was. New IOLs are being developed all the time to make the surgery less complicated for surgeons and the lenses more helpful to patients.
How can you prevent them?
There's some controversy around whether cataracts can truly be prevented. But studies have found a variety of helpful solutions mainly pertaining to diet and nutrients.
Higher dietary intakes of Vitamin E and carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin from food & supplements can decrease your risk. Great food sources:
- Sunflower seeds
- Almonds
- Spinach
- Kale
- Leafy green vegetables
Reduce your risk with a diet rich in Vitamin C. A recommended daily intake of 55 to 230 milligrams through Vitamin C-rich foods vs. supplements could help your vision as it's an antioxidant that helps coat the lens of the eye. Great food sources:
- Red & Green Peppers
- Oranges & Orange Juice
- Grapefruit & Grapefruit Juice
- Kiwi
- Broccoli
- Strawberries
- Brussels Sprouts
- Tomato Juice
- Cantaloupe
- Cabbage
- Cauliflower
- Potato
- Tomato
Make sure to wear protective sunglasses that block 100% of the suns UV rays when you are outdoors.
Everyone over 40 should have a regular comprehensive eye exam to check for signs of cataracts and other eye conditions. Keeping a pulse on your eye health & getting in for regular exams is your best bet for allowing yourself to see the world!

Comments, questions, and high praises from the well-reckoning are encouraged. But don't be a bugger in the grass, please. If you think my intentions are purely icing on the cake, take your petty sycophancy and slide it under some other door, not mine. There are more ways to skin a cat but none of them are pleasant, especially to the cat, and can lead to one's arrest and a sentence or two in strange places, so treading with dignity and sound device is my only clue, to you, now due, my dears. Otherwise I don't give a dink. I've already lived a long life, a half life, and a life with too many calories and not enough boo. Too late for the shuffling of tired feet.

S is for Sunday paper, and super short blog post, and sloppy writing. I'm quite pressed for time today, but I'm determined to meet this challenge through to end! I am very glad, though, that there are only seven posts left. This is exhausting!
The Sunday paper was, and probably still is in a lot of households, an important American tradition. I was brought into the tradition very early. I read the comics and played Super Jingo with my dad every week, trying to win a vacation. By the way, does anyone out there know what Super Jingo was? They say you can find anything on the internet, but that doesn't seem to be true in this case. I looked for a Super Jingo image for quite a while but came up empty. Furthermore, Google searches only show up Buffalo News results – some stories about winners and their cool trips to Orlando and Las Vegas. It is possible that this newspaper contest that I looked forward to, but never won, every week for years and years existed only in Buffalo? Someone please tell me if you know what this is!
Anyways, I graduated later to the entertainment and lifestyle sections, and eventually to national and local news with a dash of sports thrown in there too. And of course the ads and coupons. I wouldn't have been middle class American if I hadn't loved coupons!
When I moved overseas, I realized that the bulky Sunday edition was a uniquely American phenomenon, or at least wasn't a thing in any of the countries I lived in. So I got by misunderstanding a lot of news provided by broadcasts in foreign languages. And there was plenty of English language news available on the internet.
After six years away, when I moved back to the States I got my own Sunday subscription, though I've never had a seven-day-a-week subscription to a newspaper. But as many people nowadays have realized, everything I read in that Sunday paper I had already read several days before on the internet. So I stopped my subscription about four years ago and I don't miss it one bit. I haven't had television service in over three years either. I just can't see the point when the world of news is at my fingertips all day long anyways, whether I'm at home, in the office, or just walking down the street with my smart phone.
Sometimes I walk out my front door on a Sunday morning and look with envy at my neighbor's encyclopedia-weight New York Times waiting for him on his welcome mat. But then I just go back into my condo and curl up in bed with the iPad.
Hey, that wasn't as short as I thought it was going to be. But I haven't written anything this quickly since I was in grad school writing term papers that I had only started the night before they were due.
Curious about what everyone else is writing for the A to Z Blog Challenge? Me too! I'm featuring three blogs from my fellow contributors each day. Here are today's entertaining, lyrical, beautiful, unique, informative, or just plain random discoveries:

20 Years Prison for Lakewood Man's Crime Spree
A 24-year-old Lakewood man was sentenced
to 20 years in prison today for a crime spree in Jefferson County
last spring. In 2004 Justin Kyle Kautz was convicted of two felony
cases and was sentenced to seven years in prison. When it was time
for his parole supervision to begin, he was sent to a community
corrections facility in Jefferson County. He was living there when
he walked away from the facility on August 1, 2007
Eight months later Kautz and his
girlfriend Cheri Hall were at the Arvada Municipal Building when
they were recognized by police officers who were aware that Kautz
was wanted for Escape.
Arvada officers began following Kautz, who
was driving a stolen vehicle. The pursuit continued into Wheat
Ridge. Officers from the Wheat Ridge Police Department joined in.
While eluding police, traveling over 80 mph in a 40 mph zone, Kautz
hit the first car. The collision did not stop Kautz. It did damage
the other vehicle but fortunately did not seriously injure the
driver. Kautz continued eluding officers until he crashed into a
parked vehicle. In that collision Cheri Hall was seriously injured
and trapped inside the vehicle. Kautz left her there and ran away
on foot.
Kautz broke into a nearby apartment but
was located by SWAT officers a short time after. He held officers
in a standoff for two hours before surrendering to police.
On January 29, Justin Kyle Kautz pled
guilty to First Degree Burglary, Vehicular Eluding with Injury,
First Degree Aggravated Motor Vehicle Theft and Escape.

The whitepaper answers frequently asked questions about Colocation or Server Housing, respectively. It thus provides valuable support for companies that are currently facing the make-or-buy question.
Who is Server Housing and Colocation suitable for?
Find out more about the conditions
Would you like your IT infrastructure to be professionally operated, but setting up your own data centre is out of the question due to the high costs and limited personnel resources? Then colocation is the right choice for you. Use the dedicated and lockable 19" racks in plusserver's highly secured data centres, where you can professionally operate your own IT equipment.
For each dedicated rack you receive 2 x 16 amp power including emergency power supply, optimised rack air conditioning and 24/7 monitoring of the data centres. If required, you can always hire one of our experienced plusserver technicians to immediately intervene in case of a fault in your environment.
We offer colocation at our locations in Germany. Simply choose your desired site and then choose the approximate power requirements for running your infrastructure. It is of course also possible to obtain additional power at any time beyond your previously selected included volume. You then simply pay for the additional consumption in your next monthly bill.
Connecting your dedicated colocation rack is done via a transfer LAN (the Shared Switching Uplink). You can flexibly choose between 100 Mbit/s and 10 Gbit/s.
The traffic for your colocation is booked separately, but a traffic volume of 100 Mbit/s is already included. Corresponding IP networks for public communication over the internet are assigned in accordance with the RIPE-guidelines (IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region).
Optionally, you can also equip your Dedicated Colocation Rack with 4 x 16 amps. Site redundancies are also possible at several plusserver data centres. plusserver's comprehensive management and service capabilities are also available to you, to help unburden your own staff or increase your infrastructure performance. Your sales representative will be happy to advise you about this.
Twin-site strategy for maximum availability

The primary location for all colocation services is the data centre in Lyoner Straße in Frankfurt am Main. Additional space is available at the other data centre locations.
For customers who need a high degree of reliability, we offer various backup solutions in the context of our high-security solutions. These are available at various German and international locations.

Saint David's Episcopal Church is a thriving parish of over 700 families and over 1800 baptized members located in Roswell, Georgia, approximately 20 miles north of downtown Atlanta. Roswell has a rich history. Many of its early families were coastal-Georgia planters. They arrived on the north Georgia frontier in the 1830's, establishing prosperous cotton and woolen mills. Today, a number of their antebellum homes and landmarks are proudly on display in the historic district.
Since she is a doctor, she worked all her life, then she found herself the sleeping pills. Of course. it all started with valerian and other sedatives, but she needed something stronger.
Sleeping Ambien is what her colleague advised her. After she began to use this drug, of course she began to sleep better. But … Like every sleeping pills, Ambien has his minuses. There is one disadvantage, but it is very significant – it's addictive.
With approximately 35% of its members under the age of 16, Saint David's is full of growing families, active in community participation and full of volunteer spirit. Roswell and Alpharetta are growing and changing communities, and we recognize that Saint David's will also continue to be a parish of changing faces. But in this area of transition and change, Saint David's will remain a steadfast home for Christian worship and fellowship.

The scroll is real on Halloween. Each year, we spend more time than we should swiping through Instagram and gawking at the incredible celebrity makeovers. And who could blame us? It's hard to pull our eyes away from their expert-level transformations.
MORE: Shay Mitchell Used YouTube Tutorials for Her Last Minute Halloween Makeup
One celeb we had to double tap this time around was Karlie Kloss, who imitated the late, great Marilyn Monroe at the Naked Heart Foundation's Fabulous Fund Fair. Not only did Kloss have the perfect blonde tousle, but her makeup was on point, too, thanks to beauty genius Patrick Ta.
Ta told Stylish all about the transformation, and revealed a hack that will make beauty lovers around the world rejoice—applying powder around the mouth. He said using lip liner to stop lipstick from bleeding is standard, but adding a little powder around your kissers locks in pigment even more. The technique is actually backed by science; powder counteracts oils, which means your lips won't moisten as quickly.
Thankfully, this beauty trick and treat will be useful long after the ghosts and goblins retreat back into our basement storage.

1. She's strong.
Whatever people's opinion of her, there's no doubt that Cyborg is strong. And not just strong for a girl. Just strong. For anyone. I love this video of her body slamming Tito Ortiz.
Throwing people around is just what she does.
2. She's nice.
Right after her fight with Faith Van Duin, Cyborg clearly goes over to make sure she's okay and to give her a gesture of encouragement. Poor sportsmanship in MMA athletes is especially annoying to me, because in a sport where testing yourself means punching someone else in the face, if you have no respect for your opponent, then you have no respect for yourself and devalue the spirit of martial arts.
3. She's hardworking.
All the fighters work hard, but there's just something about Cyborg's routine that just looks harder and more rigorous, and she looks like she got to that level by working harder than anyone. One of my pet peeves is when women avoid weigh lifting or other more challenging physical activity because they're afraid of "getting too big". As if one could *accidentally* get buff. It annoys me when women say that because they basically discount the amount of hard work women actually have to put in to get buff, and even with the amount of work out Cyborg puts in, she's not even HUGE. Besides, I'm also annoyed with women who are afraid of being buff because they don't have the same concept of feminine beauty that I have. Cyborg is gorgeous, and I aspire to get a body like hers.
4. She's got potential.
Cyborg is not undefeated. However, it definitely feels that she has not been really challenged, so her loss to Jorina Baars in a muay thai fight, though sad for a fan like me, is also a happy result for a fan like me at the same time. Challenge breeds growth and development, and who doesn't want to see a more awesome Cyborg?
5. She's humble.
Right after she won her bout against Faith Van Duin, Cyborg was asked about being so dominant in all her fights, and the first thing she brings up is her loss to Baars in muay thai. Also, every time she wins, she always reacts as if she couldn't believe that she had won, that she's so thankful. Although sometimes this reaction feels rather laughable because she usually is so overwhelming and dominant over her opponents, her reaction is genuine.
In a world where physically strong women are still looked down upon for being too masculine, Cyborg's very existence serves to defy that rule. I wanna be like Cris!

My Tips for Surviving the College Application Process
By Emily I. from Berlin, Germany
Guest Blogger and College Goals' student of Jilly Warner
The idea of applying to colleges can seem exciting, daunting, maybe even scary, but most of all, stressful. Although it should actually only be exciting, as we begin this amazing new chapter in our lives, I feel that it is hard to get around the stressful part of applying. The only way to make it easier is to take each step of the process as it comes and just get it done. To get started early is important, in order to have enough time to dissect each step of the process and work on it thoroughly.
To me, the most important part of the application process is having motivation and excitement. You have to be excited to go to college, and to start the wonderful experience of life after high school. If you are not, it may be very hard to find motivation to write essays, look into different kinds of schools, and keep up with your studies at the same time. Motivation and excitement came easy for me, as I have always dreamed of going to college in the US.
It helped to look at the websites of individual schools, and find one thing for each school that I was completely passionate about. This also helped when comparing different choices, as I could weigh the aspects I had found amazing about one school to the highlights of another.
During the process of deciding where to apply, I began writing my Common App essay. Again, the most important things to have are motivation and passion. Choose a prompt that you are interested in and brainstorm about what information you find important to share about yourself. This will help a great deal, as it will not be a burden to write and you may even find the process enjoyable. Going over it repeatedly will get boring, so I tried to always keep in mind why I initially felt inclined to write an essay in response to that specific prompt and why I was excited about it. If you simply can't get motivated, think about your dream school. Imagine their admissions team reading your essay and what impressions they will gather from it. You want it to stand out, right?
Once I had made my final choice of colleges, I began writing the individual essays for each school. Again, if you get a choice of prompts, choose one that you are passionate about. Many of the essays took a lot of thinking and mulling over in my mind until I was able to decide what I wanted to write about. The University of Richmond, for example, has a prompt that simply says: Spiders. I felt completely clueless about how to respond, as I felt that such a creative prompt deserved a very creative answer. I was really happy that I had started early, because I had enough time to take a week to just think about it. I tried to think about it at least once a day, and if any good ideas popped into my head, I immediately wrote them down on my phone. This is a good thing to do with any prompts that seem tricky. It is a lot easier to have a whole bunch of ideas and then weed out the good ones, instead of staring at a blank computer screen with no ideas to consider.
Once I had finished writing all the individual essays, everything else seemed like a piece of cake. The best advice I can give to anyone about to go through the process of applying to colleges is to get on it early and stay focused, and most importantly, be motivated and get excited. It is the first time for most of us to be independent from our families and to make all of our own decisions. No matter where you end up going to college, you should be excited about the unknown, and use that anticipation for a boost of energy and motivation.

I suppose in some ways this entry is a bit of a cheat in that I have known April for a few years now, have done her makeup many times, and nearly all of her items in her bag were recommended to her by moi. She is one of my studio mates and a dear friend.
Because she follows direction so well, I actually would change very little about her stash, but I would say that she needs to utilize it more. I think she plays it safe a lot and rarely ventures out of her comfort zone. April has very big, beautiful blue eyes and I would love to see her play them up more. Large eyes can pull off dramatic liner or very dark lids without looked heavily made up.
When I do April's makeup, I emphasize her brows more than she does, and I tend to give her a dark smoky lid to make her eyes recede just a touch. I go for coppery shades to pop the blue. I also play up her porcelain skin with peaches on her cheeks-she could definitely stand to use more of her cream cheek color and remember to highlight with her mosaic quad, to warm up her skintone and bring out her bone structure. I would also love to see her experiment with some deeper lip shades for a change-a bright pink or red lip would be so dramatic and beautiful with those eyes. She could also incorporate some bronxer going into summer-I love her fair complexion but a touch of warmth will give her a healthy, natural looking glow.

I fail to see the problem. If you're correct, you'll be attempting to show others an improved approach. If you're incorrect, you'll have the chance to learn something new. Seems like a win-win situation to me.

Ever since, music is considered as one of the things that make life worth living. In a world filled with a lot of traumatic miseries, chaotic situations, and unexplainable events, music has certainly played a vital role in making life comfortable despite of all the misfortunes that we face. We appreciate how music tends to set our moods, changing it from an unpleasant one to a more relaxed feeling deep within. But have you ever wondered about the people behind every beautiful melody that we hear and how they produce it?
Long before music turned out to be a rich source of high paying jobs nowadays, this was once part of mankind's lifestyle as shown on the traditions and cultures of diverse human races. There were different musical instruments used for entertainment purposes like festivals, for religious purposes in worshiping God through songs, to name a few. Then, the time came when these people called musicians have come to realize that they will gain financial benefits through utilizing their expertise to the fullest. Now, more than ever, these musicians have captured everybody's attention with their superb performance.
Musician Identified
A musician is the one who writes, performs, or makes music. Musicians are generally classified by their roles in creating or performing music. Many people worldwide are hooked into this type of job. A famous line for those opportunists goes, "if you have it, flaunt it". That is why those who are blessed with natural golden voice are taking full advantage of their talent by joining singing contests and eventually choosing it as a career. The same holds true for those who have knowledge in writing songs as well as those skilled in playing various musical instruments. They have certainly capitalized on it.
We have witnessed how these musicians perform their part in the society. And yes, they are living their lives the way they want it to be. Aside from the huge amount of money they get for doing this, they enjoy their being famous in their chosen career path. Even though not all who tried to be musicians are successful, still many want to take part in the glamorous music industry. As a musician, you can be an instrumentalist, a singer, a composer, a conductor or a recording artist for that matter. If you are really a gifted individual, you can be all of these.
Types of Musicians
An instrumentalist, as the name suggests, is a person who is adept in playing a musical instrument. Be it a single reed instrument (saxophone), double reed instrument (oboe), free reed instrument (harmonica), brass instrument (trombone), string instrument (violin), percussion instrument (bass drum), or keyboard instrument (piano), as long as you are truly skilled with it, you definitely have the right to be in the industry if you want to. One of the famous instrumentalists is Wolfgang Mozart, who started to play piano at the age of three and staged a concert at a very young age. Aside from piano, he was also good at playing violin. Later on, he became a prolific and influential composer of Classical era.
The person who gives life to musical composition is known as a singer. These singers are classified according to their voices. For the females, most notable are the soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto and contralto. On the other hand, male voices are countertenor, tenor, baritone and bass. Since there are many people who have naturally good singing voices and not all songs fit to any type of voice, careful selection of singers is done. Luciano Pavarotti was considered as one of the world's most successful tenors of all time. He was an Italian operatic tenor who later on crossed over into popular music and undoubtedly left a significant mark in the history of world music.
The people behind the lyrics of a song are the composers, songwriters and arrangers who deliver a wonderful musical composition out of their imagination and sometimes inspired by their life experiences and point of views on current events. Their outputs are transcribed in music notation to be performed by the singers. Without them, singers are nothing unless they too can write their own songs. As we can see, some the world's famous musical compositions deal with love, hope, and inspiration while other composers lend their writing skills by contributing Gospel compositions. Perhaps everybody knows the theme song of the movie "Titanic" which is "My Heart Will Go On". This was one of the compositions of Will Jennings, a creative lyricist who wrote songs for Barry Manilow, Eric Clapton, Roy Orbison and many others.
Another type of a musician is a conductor who leads a musical ensemble and can also simultaneously act as an instrumentalist. The unity of an ensemble depends on how well the conductor manages to lead everybody toward a beautiful musical show. One mistake of a hand position can have a damaging effect on the ensemble thus a conductor should be focused to avoid it. Austrian Herbert von Karajan was an orchestra and opera conductor who was considered by The New York Times as "probably the world's best-known conductor and one of the most powerful figures in classical music".
A recording artist on the other hand is the one who creates music such as CDs and MP3 files. In today's present scenario in the music industry, recording artists usually get the most attention among all the musicians since they are the front runners in marketing the composer's songs. Therefore, aside from the flawless quality of the voice, pleasing personality is also considered so that the recording artist will be noticed and gain the people's adulation. Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion and Mariah Carey are just some of the world's most popular recording artists.
To get more information about musicians and their musical contributions in the society, the following books are highly recommended:
- Musical Biography: Towards New Paradigms by Jolanta T. Pekacz, April 2006
- Rhythm Planet: The Great World Music Makers by Tom Schnabel, Nov 1998
- Musical Prodigies: Masters at an Early Age by Renee B. Fisher, Oct 1995
With the world's present unstable economic situation, gone are the days when people are simply waiting to be called for a certain job but they find ways to earn a for living even the unimaginable ones. So if you have music inclination and you believe you can make it, then what's holding you back? Go for the gold, so to speak.


text: Those who follow me on Instagram (if you're not, you can find me here - @brigitadambe) already know that I turned the long weekend into an even longer one and went to Austria with my fam. Austria never disappoints with its views and Vienna never gets old no matter how many times you visit. It is ever changing, filled with rich experiences, you just have to give in. This time we changed it up and visited some top tourist spots, one of which was Schönbrunn Palace. Though apparently we didn't look like tourists, because every other person kept us asking directions. Point in case, typical tourists don't wear off shoulder tops with frills and gold accessories. Oh well, #justaBthing I guess. Talking about the top, I never thought I would say this, but the best thing is the fact that you can skip the bra part of your dressing routine and take on the day with no shame - because there are frills that cover everything up! Best thing ever when the temperature rises above 30ºC. So today I'm leaving you with few shots from the Palmenhaus Schönbrunn, but don't worry, there is more to come!

text: HadfieldFrederick Cordingley "Bud" Hadfield passed away peacefully at home on Monday with his family by his side. He had been in declining health for several months.He leaves to honor his memory his wife of 50 years, Mary; daughter Katherine Denison and her husband, Pat; son James "Jim" Hadfield and his wife, Linda; grandchildren Shay; Tate; Reding; Katie, and Travis; and nephew, Rick Hadfield and his family. Members of the ICED family around the globe who he touched and inspired also mourn his passing.Known by all, including his grandchildren, as Bud, he was a pioneer in the quick printing industry, starting with Kwik Kopy Printing. He went on to build an empire of franchises that today includes seven brands represented in 13 countries. Parent company ICED is headquartered at Northwest Forest, a bucolic 100+ acre conference center in Cypress, built in 1985, featuring a full-size replica of the Alamo that draws visitors year-round.Bud pioneered many concepts that have evolved to become mainstays in the quick printing industry. Kwik Kopy Printing was a technology leader as early as 40 years ago with the advent of the duplicator press and the direct image cameraBorn in Virginia, Bud and his family moved to Cranston, Rhode Island, in the late '20s. As a teen, he became a newspaperman, printing a neighborhood paper in the basement. After the good scholar became a rebel and was expelled from school shortly before graduation, he joined the Merchant Marines and spent most of WWII on the high seas. A brief career as an amateur boxer convinced the youthful Bud there had to be an easier way to make a living.Bud drifted to Massachusetts, but a bitter 1947 winter drove him south to the warmer climate of Houston, where he eventually opened Bud Hadfield Printers.A stint as an aide to Mayor Louie Welch gave Bud mayoral aspirations of his own until his spectacular defeat at the hands of Fred Hofheinz. Bud's philosophy of "stick to what you know" sent him back to printing - and thousands around the world benefited.At a friend's urging, Bud reluctantly took the Dale Carnegie course, eventually becoming a salesman and instructor. He sold a course in 1958 to a young lady named Mary who became his wife and business partner; the two of them would remain best friends for life. Bud credited the Dale Carnegie course with changing his life, and he would remain an instructor for some 30 years.After failing at nine diverse businesses - what he called part of learning - Bud found success in printing, morphing Bud Hadfield Printers into Kwik Kopy Printing, introducing new technology, and promoting the explosive growth in franchising. AWT; The Ink Well; Franklin's Printing; Kwik Kopy Business Centers; Parcel Plus, and Computer Explorers followed, with a few acquired or started and eventually discontinued along the way. A highlight for the company, and for Bud, was the 1990 annual conference held at George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston. Former President Ronald Reagan and Dr. Norman Vincent Peale were keynote speakers, and former astronaut Admiral Alan Shepard, a member of the ICED Board of Directors, gave a talk. On March 23, 1993, the Texas Senate declared Bud Hadfield Day, citing his many contributions to the citizens of Texas, noting his involvement with civic groups and schools as he urged young people to further their education.No award fulfilled Bud more than when he received his diploma from Cranston High School in 1987, some 47 years after he was expelled. He thanked the school for the honor by replacing the antiquated printing equipment he had used there nearly a half century before.The dream has been realized, and the little boy with the big name became the big man with the little name, known around the world by thousands as a dream maker, and who himself, finally, lived his own dream that he always knew in his heart he would.Visitation is Thursday evening from 6-8 p.m. at Klein Funeral Home, 1400 W. Main St., Tomball, 77375, 281.351.7233.Funeral services will be Friday, April 15, at 11:00 a.m. at Salem Lutheran Church, 22601 Lutheran Church Road, Tomball, 77377, 281.351.8223. Interment will follow at Klein Memorial Park, 32539 Hwy. 249 in Pinehurst.Memorial donations may be made to Boys and Girls Country, 18806 Roberts Road, Hockley, TX 77447-9327, or online at www.boysandgirlscountry.org.Expressions of sympathy may be sent to The Hadfield Family, ICED, 12715 Telge Road, Cypress, TX 77429.***

A recent Massachusetts Superior Court case, Germinara v. Bakis, et al. (decided May 13, 2019), involved a plaintiff borrower who obtained a commercial loan in order to fund the purchase and operation of a gas station/convenience store, which was owned by an LLC formed by the plaintiff. The loan was secured by both the gas station property and contents and a second property that was owned by the borrower in trust. Further, the lender and the funder of the loan were granted mortgages and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure to secure the interest on both properties owned by the borrower. When the plaintiff defaulted on the loan, the lender and the funder took title to the two properties by exercising the deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure. They sold both properties and, additionally, seized some items of the borrower's personal property that had been located at the properties, such as trucks and vehicles. Some of these items were owned by the plaintiff in his individual capacity, and not by the LLC that held title to the gas station; however, the lender held other security obligations which included the vehicles.
The Fate of Fixtures at the End of a Commercial Lease: Who Pays for Removal?
The obligation of a tenant to remove fixtures and the right of the landlord to recover the cost of removal of fixtures and attendant repairs to the property were the subject of a recent decision by Suffolk Superior Court Judge Robert Gordon in The Wilder Companies, Ltd. v. California Pizza Kitchen, Inc., 32 Mass L. Rptr. 505 (2015).
Appraisers Have Final Say on Lease Extension Rent
A panel of the Massachusetts Appeals Court recently grappled with the reviewability of rent-setting calculations performed by professional appraisers pursuant to a commercial lease, and determined that even mistaken appraisers will have the last word so long as they apply any criteria or formula set forth in the lease, and do not exceed the authority the parties have granted them.
275 Washington St. Corp. v. Hudson River Int'l., LLC: Collecting Indemnification Damages in Commercial Leases
In a recent case, 275 Washington St. Corp. v. Hudson River Int'l., LLC, 465 Mass. 16 (2013), the Supreme Judicial Court ruled that a commercial landlord cannot recover post-termination damages under an indemnification clause until the original lease term expires. In 275 Washington St. Corp., the tenant vacated the premises and ceased paying rent 18 months into a 12-year lease. The lease included an indemnification clause that provided, "Tenant shall indemnify Landlord against all loss of rent and other payments which Landlord may incur by reason of such termination during the remainder of the term." After the tenant vacated, the landlord terminated the lease, and, relying on the indemnification clause, demanded that the tenant pay the landlord's lost rent over the entire 12-year lease term, in addition to the unpaid rent that accrued prior to termination of the lease. The landlord's total potential damages with interest exceeded $1,000,000.
Tenant's Corporate Parent Insulated from Lease Default Claim; But Liable for Use and Occupancy
Last Fall, the Massachusetts Appeals Court held in OMV Associates, L.P. v Clearway Acquisition, Inc., 82 Mass. App. Ct. 561 (2012), that a lessee's corporate parent could not be reached under traditional veil-piercing principles to pay the debt of a subsidiary that breached a commercial lease.

António Félix da Costa is likely to make his Formula 1 debut in 2014, if current Toro Rosso driver Daniel Ricciardo is promoted to Red Bull.
The 21 year old Portuguese driver has been part of the Red Bull junior team since the middle of last season and is on the radar ahead of 2014.
Feature: Antonio Felix da Costa: Red Bull's next star
"António Félix da Costa is one of the candidates, but let's wait for Red Bull's decision," STR team principal Franz Tost told TotalRace.
"If they take Daniel, we will assess the choice for our second cockpit."
French racer Jean-Eric Vergne is set to be retained by Toro Rosso for next season.
Da Costa, whose position at the team hinges on Ricciardo's future, is currently in fifth place in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series.
