According to recently released figures from the DFFA* nobody in the UK has the slightest idea what they're doing, much less why they're doing whatever it is that they're doing.
One field study revealed that a man in a supermarket, hovering by the spice shelves, actually believed he was pruning roses in his own back garden.
When this was clearly not the case, as subsequent investigations revealed that he was merely examining the options offered by coriander - a catch all spice that seems to work, whatever the user bungs it in.
Apparently, one man, spotted in a gymnasium actually thought he was on a Leeds bound train, as opposed to doing what he actually was doing - pedalling an exercise bike like the clappers and going nowhere.
Why the man wanted to go to Leeds in the first place remains a mystery.
It seems that confusion is endemic in the UK - nobody appears to know what they're supposed to be doing, because whatever that may be, they aren't actually doing it.
They're usually doing something else, totally unrelated.
Independent research implies that anyone who doesn't really have a clue what they're doing should speak in a loud voice and be assertive.
That'll sort it.
Either that or just establish the fact to the independent observer that if you haven't got a clue what you're doing, then you're a complete knob head.
Which is probably an accurate assessment.
But staff here at Skoob News don't have a clue what they're doing either. So it kind of balances itself out.
In the long run. With all this breaking news and stuff.
More as we get it.
Or more as we don't get it.

Indie digital giant AKQA has hired James Hudson from Webliquid as head of media and search for the agency. Hudson, who will head up AKQA's European media operation, will report to Scott Symonds, global head of AKQA Media.
The move is significant as AKQA, the subject of constant takeover rumours, is keen to move into more areas to compete with the big marcoms companies. Media, chiefly planning and buying search, is an important part of this process.
The company has recently won some substantial media business; French Connection appointed AKQA in April to manage paid search for in the US and UK and Clorox has appointed the agency yo handle paid and organic search for a number of cleaning brands in the US.
Hudson, formerly deputy managing director at Webliquid where he worked on Avis, Hilton and Budget, has also worled at PHD and i-level. At Webliquid his speciality was cross-channel media planning which suggests that AKQA is keen to offer more than just search planning and buying.

The Christie administration is weighing the idea of creating a separate state-run "achievement school district" that would be comprised of New Jersey's very lowest-performing schools, complete with vast new powers in controlling personnel and programs.
The proposal was part of a $7.6 million grant application to the Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation made last February, a proposal that never moved to full fruition after the foundation approved a smaller amount, officials now say.
But it will nonetheless be at least part of a broader study of last-resort options for schools that is being conducted by an outside national organization, officials said.
Released as part of a public records request, they are the first formal outlines of an idea that Gov. Chris Christie's education commissioner, Chris Cerf, has long flirted with and continues to contend should be an option to consider for persistently laggard schools.
In the grant application, the new "district" would call for the possible unilateral closing of the worst performing schools and reopening them under new outside management, including the suspension of collective bargaining agreements. It is similar to the "recovery districts" that have been employed in post-Katrina Louisiana, as well as Tennessee and Detroit.
"We essentially said this is worth serious deliberation," Cerf said this week of the application. "What do you do when you have thrown everything at a school, and it still doesn't work?"
Still, Cerf readily acknowledged it would need new law and regulations that have yet to be proposed. In the meantime, the department is embarking on its own aggressive strategies for revamping schools within their districts, as they now exist.
"To do that would require an act of the Legislature, and we are explicitly clear about that in the application," he said.
The proposals came to light on Tuesday through the Education Law Center of Newark, the advocacy group that has been at frequent odds with the Christie administration over its education reform agenda.
The center obtained the documents through an open public records request and included it in a press release that painted the approach as part of what it called Christie's plan to decimate public schools.
"This is a terrible idea," said David Sciarra, executive director of the center. "To borrow this idea from New Orleans, that is hardly evidence this can work and in fact is evidence to the contrary."
Sciarra in an interview yesterday also repeated what has been a mounting question among some in the state to the influence of the Broad Foundation in education policy. Cerf is a graduate of Broad's Leadership training program, as is two of his top assistants, and with this grant, Broad has agreed in the past two years to give more than $2 million in grants to help train staff and develop policy in the state.
"The commissioner is making commitments to a foundation in California that he will follow through on reforms virtually in secret and with no public vetting of these proposals as they relate to the needs of children in New Jersey," Sciarra said.
Cerf and other state officials argued that there was never any secrecy in their intentions, pointing to a separate memo sent to districts last week that outlined the eventual $1.5 million grant agreement struck with Broad Foundation and the Council for Chief State School Officers, the national organization of state education commissioners.
Cerf has openly supported the notion of a recovery district in the past as well, including having visited New Orleans two years ago to talk with officials there. Broad also funded that trip. He also included the possible closing of schools in a recent federal waiver.
Still, the nine-page Broad proposal provides far more detail than previously discussed publicly.
Importantly, it only proposes the notion of a state-run "district" for schools where other, ongoing reform efforts have failed. The state is scheduled to embark this fall on a network of seven Regional Achievement Centers across the state that would focus on the lowest rung of performers, known as Priority Schools, providing on-site assistance and training. A fair amount of the Broad application details that strategy.
But where it goes into new territory is what the department called "advanced interventions."
"In the rare instances where local schools, districts, or boards of education are either unwilling or incapable of pursuing improvement strategies in a collaborative fashion, or where sufficient improvement is not made, NJDOE will exercise its authority to ensure that every child has access to a quality education," the application read.
It does point out significant hurdles from the outset, including the need to further research how the state would go about creating a new district and what authority the state would hold in closing schools and reopening them.
But once determined, the department said it would "support legislation establishing an Achievement School District," where all Priority Schools would be automatically eligible and the commissioner would make the final decision, not open to appeal.
The schools under state operation would receive the same funding as district schools, it said, and "all schools would be freed from the district's collective bargaining agreement, and the school's operator will have control over personnel decisions."
Cerf this week didn't distance himself from any of the proposal, but likened it to a wish list for the administration and just one eventual option. Instead, the department is moving ahead with a toned-down version in which the Council for Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) will start by providing recruitment and training for the new RACs.
Still, close to $1 million of the total to CCSSO will include further research into the "advanced intervention strategies," including those laid out by the state.
According to the grant agreement, CSSO will "provide in-depth research, as well as strategic recommendations and operational plan proposals for the Department's consideration in the creation of advanced intervention strategies for low performing schools that do not make sufficient progress after receiving Regional Achievement Center support."

While Tuff was calming the gunman, students and teachers were able to quickly and safely leave the building. Nobody was injured. She used kindness and compassion to help save the lives of countless children and their teachers.
Such social emotional skills — which over time allow us to make good decisions and maintain healthy relationships — are important for all of us and especially critical to teach our kids as they grow up in these times of school massacres and active-shooter drills.
As the full-time peace teacher at Lafayette Elementary School in Washington, D.C., instructing more than 500 kids every week, I see a big part of my role as triage. I do my best to look out for the lonely, angry ones, the ones who always seem to be on their own, the ones who aren't connecting with the other kids. I don't know anything about their reading or math skills. There are other wonderful teachers to take care of that. All I'm concerned with is their hearts and happiness. I'm lucky my school values this kind of learning enough to employ me so I can work with these kids every day.
I see schools spending more and more money on guards and staff whose sole purpose is to break up fights and discipline kids. Instead, how about getting to the root of these problems? Educators who teach students how to deal with difficult emotions might be the most urgent need.
Years ago, students in my conflict resolution workshops started calling me the "peace teacher," and the title has stuck. At Lafayette, all of the kids take my weekly peace class.
In class, we turn out the lights, and I tell students to count breaths or focus on one of their five senses. It calms them down and allows them to connect with their emotions and think about their bodies. They become more aware of their feelings and learn how to recognize anxious thoughts but not be consumed by them — the foundation of emotional smarts.
I started out 15 years ago teaching conflict resolution, but I realized that children had a hard time remembering how to use conflict resolution skills when they are in a real conflict and are actually angry. They didn't have any skills to help them recognize their emotions and calm down enough to work things out peacefully. This is what led me to bring mindfulness into my classes.
I was surprised to learn the children loved it. They see it for what it is, learning to identify their feelings and think before they act. Through that, they focus better, manage their emotions, calm themselves down, and become kinder and more compassionate. In essence, they learn to be more peaceful.
Some students started telling me they were even doing it at home to relax or fall asleep at night. Kids said mindfulness made them feel kinder, less nervous, more confident and better rested.
After a year of teaching mindfulness at Lafayette, reports of fights and bullying were down. All children need to learn these skills — not just the ones who are referred to the school counselor for extra help.
What started out as a little experiment quickly grew to be a schoolwide program with all classroom teachers leading daily "mindful moments." We even have an alternative recess space called "peace club," where kids can go to decompress.
Children in the District and across the country are living in an increasingly scary, uncertain world. They are anxious. Active-shooter drills are terrifying, and it is harder and harder for parents to keep kids sheltered from the latest horrific headlines. Yes, we must make sure our schools are physically safe. But we also need to be sure our kids have the skills to deal with these difficult emotional times.
Of course, no amount of school-based intervention can completely compensate for serious problems in the home or the community, but I believe we owe it to our students to give their hearts as much attention as we give their heads.
Here's what you can do to bring mindfulness and social emotional learning to your children and your school:
- Introduce mindfulness to your family. Mindfulness doesn't have to be serious. We have lots of fun in peace class. There are wonderful books such as "Mindful Monkey, Happy Panda" and "Anh's Anger" to help kids learn some of the basic concepts. There are apps you can download, such as Calm and Mind Yeti, that have recorded lessons for children to try. I have mindfulness videos on my website you can watch free, and I also recommend mindfulness from hip-hop artist JusTme. For adults I suggest 10% Happier.
- Take Five. One of the simplest but most useful mindfulness practices I teach in peace class is called "take five breathing." All you do is trace your hand slowly with your finger while breathing in and out. Breathe in as you trace up starting at your thumb, breathe out as you trace down. It's simple, fun and it really works.
- Advocate for mindfulness in your school. More schools are beginning to catch on, but not all mindfulness programs are created equal. Research is starting to show that it is the combination of mindfulness and social emotional learning that makes the difference. Many programs offer eight-week introductions to mindfulness. This is a great start, but as someone who has been teaching mindfulness weekly to children from pre-K to fifth grade, I can say that this is where the real change starts. It's ongoing, and it's schoolwide. That commitment is why we are seeing calmer, happier children who are better equipped not only to interact with their friends but also to interact with the world.
Linda Ryden is the peace teacher at Lafayette Elementary in Washington, D.C. She has written two children's books, "Rosie's Brain," which helps children learn how to calm down when they're angry, and "Henry Is Kind," a book about compassion.

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has strongly defended the Russian military incursion into Georgia, but says Moscow has no intention of annexing any territory of former Soviet republics.
Mr. Putin, speaking Thursday in southern Russia, said Moscow has no "imperial ambitions" for Georgia, despite what he said were Western accusations to the contrary.
Separately Thursday, Russian news reports say President Dmitri Medvedev again accused Georgia of military aggression last month against the Georgian breakaway territory of South Ossetia.
Mr. Medvedev said the Georgian move against South Ossetia August 7 triggered Russia's military incursion and has made the modernization of the Russian military a top priority.
Earlier Thursday, the pro-Russian separatist leader in South Ossetia said the Georgian region will not seek to become part of Russia, despite earlier reports to the contrary.
Russian news agencies quoted Eduard Kokoity earlier as saying South Ossetia is to join the North Ossetian region of Russia. He later told journalists he was misquoted.
Russia has defied a host of Western governments by recognizing South Ossetia and a second breakaway region, Abkhazia, as independent states. Moscow moved earlier this week to establish diplomatic ties with both territories.
Abkhazian leader Sergei Bagapsh said his region hopes to join the Russian-Belarus Union State.
Russian forces pushed into Georgia last month after the Georgian military tried to retake control of South Ossetia. Russia said it had to protect its citizens in the pro-Russian region.
Some information for this report was provided by AFP and AP.

CT imaging or CAT scan is a special test which utilizes x-rays to penetrate tissues and bones to produce images used for diagnosis or treatment planning. This differs from standard radiography ("x-rays") by using special computerized equipment that ultimately displays continuous slices of a particular bone or joint. It provides exceptional detail of bone, and to a lesser degree the soft tissues including muscles, vessels, fat and nerves.
This detail can then be used to diagnose certain bone and soft tissue conditions, help doctors do careful pre-surgical and pretreatment planning, and help follow the success of the treatment.
CT imaging is typically performed with the patient lying on their back on a special table which is then advanced into a large, round, bore within the CT scanner. Once the body part is centered in the scanner, it takes 10 to 20 seconds to acquire the images. The rest of the time is spent processing these images by our highly trained technologists.
Our department provides the newest in CT technology which is available in multiple locations. We offer cutting edge advanced techniques including 3D reconstruction which allows the images to be rotated in order to obtain a more comprehensive view of the condition.
Other newer techniques include CT Arthrography in which CT imaging is performed after the joint is injected with an iodinated contrast agent.
CT Arthrography requires more special technique performed by our highly trained musculoskeletal radiologists. It involves sterile cleansing of the skin, anesthetic infiltration of the tissues, and placement of a needle gently into the joint. A sterile iodinated contrast agent will then be injected into the joint.
Once injected, the patient will be moved to the CT scanning room and images will be acquired similar to routine CT imaging.
These special images provide additional detail of the joint anatomy and pathology normally not seen with routine CT imaging.
The American College of Radiology (ACR) and the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) provide descriptions of various procedures relating to the Musculoskeletal (MSK) System on their jointly developed site, RadiologyInfo.org .

We regularly discuss the folly of tort reform in this blog, and how it hurts people who are legitimately injured by medical malpractice and insulates bad actors from having to take responsibility for the harm they cause. But a recent case in Wisconsin demonstrates in a very real, and human way, exactly how bad this problem is.
Family of Man Who Falls off Hospital Table and Dies Struggles to Recover
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported on the case of Robert Schmitt and his family. Mr. Schmitt went to the Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center back in February for a routine heart procedure. The 91-year-old Schmitt fell off the procedure table onto the floor and broke his pelvis. Five weeks later he died, and the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner said his death was caused by complications from the fracture. Hardening of the arteries and heart disease also contributed to his death.
However, the hospital's insurance company refused to pay Mr. Schmitt's family's wrongful death claim. Instead they offered Mr. Schmitt's widow a paltry $75,000. While that may sound like a lot, it is important to note that Mr. Schmitt was his wife's primary caregiver (they had been married for 65 years) and that she requires care 24/7 due to her own medical issues. So more than $75,000 has already been spent on Mr. Schmitt's medical and Mrs. Schmitt's care.
Yet the Schmitt family is finding it difficult to go to court to assert their claim. Part of the issue is that attorneys are reluctant to take the case because, under a nonsensical Wisconsin law, if Mrs. Schmitt dies before the suit is concluded, the suit would immediately end. That means there would be no way for the Schmitt family to recover the costs of the litigation from the other side, and they cannot afford the costs themselves. And this situation cannot be resolved by having a different family member file the suit, because under another problematic Wisconsin law, only spouses and minor children can file medical malpractice wrongful death cases, and all of Mr. and Mrs. Schmitt's children are grown.
State Laws have Gutted Medical Malpractice in Wisconsin
Before reporting on the Schmitt family's case, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel did an in-depth report on the state of medical malpractice law in Wisconsin, and the outlook is grim for those who suffer a healthcare related injury. The state has put strict limits in place regarding who can sue over medical malpractice, how much can be collected, and where that money will come from. Over the last decade and a half, the number of medical malpractice cases filed in the state has dropped by roughly 50%.
While it would be nice if the massive decline were caused by improved medical care, there is no evidence to support that theory. Instead, the evidence includes cases like the death of Colleen Daniels. State regulators said Ms. Daniels died after a breathing tube was mistakenly inserted into her esophagus instead of her windpipe. Seems like an obvious legitimate medical malpractice claim. But Ms. Daniels was divorced, so she had no spouse. And while her youngest daughter was still in high school and living with her, she had reached her 18th birthday. So no one was allowed to file a lawsuit, and the medical providers who are responsible for Ms. Daniels' death never had to take responsibility.

Fast Attack Motorsports S65 V-8 Performance Tuning
***Instructions for using the new OBD iFlash adapter and flash software here.***
Having spent years studying the internal workings of the Siemens MSS60 and MSS65 Digital Motor Electronics (DME) and their associated programming, we are proud to announce our performance DME tuning.
As in most things we enter the market in, we approach things a bit differently with a clean slate. With this in mind, we have abandoned the traditional sales model for tuning in referring to "stages". The term is somewhat arbitrary and leads to misconceptions as to what the product is capable of. Gone also are the à la carte pricing for the somewhat mundane options available. Most of these changes are a few bytes of data changed here or there and represent no significant additional amount of work to enable or disable.
The bottom line in choosing an ECU calibration for almost everyone is performance. No matter how great a company's reputation, customer service, or choice of options, performance is the measure by which the product will be judged. While performance gains will vary from one engine to the next, horsepower gains of 25-30 HP can be expected on a stock engine without any supporting bolt-on upgrades.
The S85 and S65 engines were the primary drivers for the formation of our company. They represent the last bastion of pure naturally aspirated BMW M Power and embody all the principles which vaulted BMW to the top of the motorsports world and performance car market. We have helped many owners over their years out of passion for the platform, long before the notion of forming a business even came to us. As a business, we carry this even further and will stand behind our product and support our customers.
- Speed Limiter Removal: The factory DME limits the vehicle to 155 MPH via internal software. This option removes the limiters to allow exploring the upper end of what these vehicles are capable of. Please, use responsibly in a controlled environment such as on the race track or air strip.
- O2 Readiness Override (For off-road use only): One of the largest restrictions in the S85's airflow path is the close-coupled catalytic converters located in the headers. Many aftermarket off-road use headers remove the primary cats or replace them with high-flow race cats to allow the engine to breath better. This results in a "Service Engine Soon" light illuminated on the instrument cluster as the DME stores a code for "Catalytic Converter Efficiency" due to the increased oxygen present at the post-cat O2 sensors. This option removes the SES light generated by this condition to allow for other more significant error codes to alert the driver when something is wrong.
- Cold Start Delete: This option removes the catalytic converter heating routine which was implemented on most modern vehicles for the purpose of meeting ULEV and SULEV emissions certifications in the US. The US DOT set the requirements for these certifications so that a new vehicle entering the US market must meet the applicable emissions requirements within a short period of time after engine start from a cold condition. In order to achieve this, most all auto manufacturers relocated the catalytic converters as close to the engine as possible (in the actual exhaust manifold for most BMWs) and implemented a "Katheizen" (German for Cat Heating) routine in the DME. This Katheizen routine alters the exhaust valve timing, fuel injector pulse-width, and ignition timing to allow for incomplete combustion of a cylinder's air/fuel charge before entering the exhaust manifold where combustion continues, rapidly warming up the catalytic converter. This accounts for the "cold-start" sound of the S65 and rather rough running that occurs if driven away prior to completion of the cycle. Selecting this option disables the Katheizen routine entirely and has no negative effect whatsoever on the normal operation of the engine. In fact, it is our opinion that combined with the low cylinder pressures and higher than average oil consumption of the S65, that this routine may be a contributing factor in the short life-span of the primary cats many S85 owners have experienced over the years.
- RPM Limiter Raised: Standard option is for 8500 RPM. Please note this is primarily to allow for stretching out a gear a bit longer to allow coming into the next gear slightly higher in the power curve. The S65 torque and horsepower curves are already declining at this point due to restrictiveness of the intake tract.

The front end also conveys an emphatically expressive impression - the steep diamond radiator grille in black with louvre in iridium silver and chrome trim can also be individualised further. Powerful proportions define the rear end with its athletically shaped wings. Accentuated by restyled tail lights in a slimmer shape. A look that leaves a resounding impression.

Lighthizer warns NAFTA could be split into separate deals
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer warned on Monday that the United States is prepared to break up NAFTA into separate agreements with Canada and Mexico if it can't make headway on its priorities in the renegotiation.
"We would prefer a three-way, tripartite agreement. If that proves impossible, we are prepared to move on a bilateral basis if agreement can be made," Lighthizer said at the close of the seventh round of talks Monday in Mexico City.
"We have tried to be clear and very specific about what we hope to see in a new NAFTA," he added. "We are prepared to work continuously to achieve a breakthrough."
Lighthizer complained of the slow progress in the talks, as he did at the conclusion of the previous round.
"To complete NAFTA 2.0, we'll need agreement on roughly 30 chapters. So far, after seven months, we have completed just six," he said. "Granted, these things tend to converge more towards the end of a negotiation."
Still, Lighthizer struck a somewhat optimistic tone near the end of his remarks.
"I understand that these talks are not easy for anyone" he said. "If the political will is there, I'm certain that we have a path to rapid and successful conclusion."
Lighthizer also warned of impending elections in Mexico, Canada and the United States. Mexico's presidential election will take place in July. Provincial elections in Ontario and Quebec also will be held later this year, as will the midterm elections in the U.S.
"All of this complicates our work," Lighthizer said. "I fear that the longer we proceed, the more political headwinds we will feel."
The U.S. trade chief said domestic laws requiring consultations and reports to lawmakers make it more important to resolve outstanding issues soon if the deal is to be considered by the current Congress.
Mexican Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo, for his part, did not seem to think that politics would interfere with getting a good deal.
"There will be the political calendar in all three countries," Guajardo said during the joint press conference. But he said that a new pact can be strong enough to say "that NAFTA is in the best interest of all three nations."
Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland called the talks "constructive." She reiterated Canada's staunch opposition to Trump's comments last week promising stiff tariffs on steel and aluminum, citing that the two countries are key allies.
"Canada would view any trade restrictions on Canadian steel and aluminum as absolutely unacceptable," she said. "Should restrictions be imposed on Canadian steel and aluminum products, Canada will take appropriate responsive measures to defend our trade interests and workers."

OMG: Catfish Sticks Tourist's Stomach While Swimming Off Coast Of Brazilby Rachel Stephens 18/01/2016 14:34:00 0 comments 1 Views
A female tourist had a painful encounter with a catfish off the coast of Brazil.
Ambulance workers took the bizarre picture of the fish stuck to the woman's stomach as they took her to hospital so the offending object could be removed.
They cut the fish from her body at the scene in the resort of Itanhaem in the state of Sao Paulo.
But the serrated spine in its fin had to be taken out with microsurgery to avoid her flesh being ripped out.
Marcelo Araujo, who posed the picture on his Facebook page, joked: "A rare occurrence. A swimmer is hit by a fish."
He added: "We were alerted to an incident where an object had penetrated a swimmer's stomach and when we got there, discovered it was a fish.
"She was in a lot of pain. We didn't remove the spine because only a doctor can do this. We took her to hospital so she could have microsurgery.
"Generally we deal with people who have stood on fish or have cut a finger touching one, but I've never seen a catfish stuck to someone's stomach. It was definitely a first."

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and President Bush spoke via videoconference on Monday about security developments in Iraq.
They pledged their mutual commitment to stopping terrorist activities throughout Iraq - a message meant to ease mounting tensions between Iraq and Turkey.
Iraqi officials say, overall, deadly violence in Iraq has declined since June, when the U.S. completed its buildup of forces in the region. Some 30,000 additional troops were deployed to provide stability in Iraq.
In violence Monday, Iraqi police say separate bomb blasts in Baghdad killed at least six people and wounded more than 20 others.
In other news, Reporters Without Borders is calling on Iraqi authorities to immediately establish a program to protect journalists working in the nation.
On Monday, the U.S.-funded Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty said one of its correspondents is missing in Iraq.
The Prague-based broadcaster did not identify the reporter. It says police found the body of her driver shot and dumped in the street.
The broadcaster says she disappeared on her way to an interview in the capital.
Meanwhile, the Czech government has approved a plan to withdraw 80 of its 100 troops from Iraq. Czech Defense Minister Vlasta Parkanova made the announcement today in Prague. She said the troops, who are in southern Iraq, will operate in the region until mid-2008.
Some information for this report was provided by AP and Reuters.

Title: Summer in Miami (5 / ?)
Fandom: The Faculty / Casey & Zeke (no pairing)
Rating: R
Summery: Casey is a High Society Guy and Zeke just the boy from the garage
Disclaimer: The Faculty and the boys are not mine, of course ;)
You can find all chapters of this story: here
After a plate of scrambled eggs with toast, some fresh fruits and coffee Casey started to relax visibly. When he finally put off his sunglasses Zeke smiled. Casey noticed his look and frowned.
And he couldn't hold back.
"It's kinda stupid to hide these eyes."
Casey slightly blushed but smiled.
"My grandma always told me that I'm my grandpa all over. His eyes were blue like mine. I never got to know him but she told me everything. He was a carpenter, but he loved to write poems and brought her flowers from the fields. She often said, obviously his romantic heart did skip a generation. My dad is not a bad guy, you know, he cares for my mom and for me. But in a very businesslike way, great emotions are alien to him. I guess that's the reason why we never were really close."
"And nevertheless you want to go his way?"
Casey shrugged.
"It never was a question. He expected from me to give my best even at pre-school. No problem though, it did come easy for me to learn. Two months ago I did graduate with a straight A+. I know, Stanford will be different, a lot of brilliant students, but I will do my best to become a good lawyer like he is."
Zeke looked at him thoughtfully.
"I'm afraid you're wrong," he said.
Casey frowned.
"What do you mean?"
"You can go to the best Colleges, Casey. You can learn every law inside out. But this doesn't make you a good lawyer.
Your dad is successful in his job because it is what he wants to do. But what's with you? Will you love this job, Casey, are you ready to forget this great heart you got from your grandpa? Because you will have to do this if you want to be brilliant in this job. There is no place for a guy who loves photography and who is willing to bring himself into trouble just to help a friend."
"What else can I do?"
Casey sighed.
"Last year I wanted to send some of my pics to an art school in Columbus. Just to find out what they think about my work. But when my dad noticed it, he got angry, dumped the letter into the bin and told me that he has already payed a lot of money for my education and that he won't let it happen that I waste my time with such unprofitable studies."
"Has he ever had a look at your pictures," Zeke asked.
"I don't know much about art, but even I can say, that you are pretty talented. One day you could become a famous photographer. Earn a shitload of money with your pics."
Casey chuckled, slightly embarrassed.
"Just pipe dreams though. Tomorrow I will go back to Columbus. My dad has already placed a flight-ticket at the airport."
Zeke looked up surprised, a slight disappointment was rushing through him.
"Tomorrow? I thought you wanted to stay here over summer. There are still some weeks left."
"My dad says it makes no sense to waste even more time and money. I guess, he wanted me to come here because of Andy. To be good friend with him can be helpful … his dad has a lot of influence."
Casey pulled the face.
"Well, I guess I can't count on his help anymore."
Suddenly Zeke felt anger rushing through him. My dad this … my dad that … was he not able to make own decisions? It was his life and no one had the right to tell him what to do with it. Not someone as selfish and small-minded like his father. He needed to free himself out of his clutches or one day he would end swallowed up by a world which wasn't his.
He couldn't say why suddenly the memories hit him out of the blue. A little boy, about five years old. He had spend the day with making a card for his dad, with glitter and hearts and stuff. When he heard him coming home in the evening he run to him to gave him his present, so full of proud. He didn't even need to close his eyes to remember the stoney face of his father while he eyed the card for a while, finally he shoved it back to him and said: Try it again, Ezekiel, you can do this so much better.
He hadn't thought about it for so long. No, Casey was not the only one who did grow up with an overpowering father. Like Casey Zeke had build up a shell around himself but he had never been the obedient son who tried everything to satisfy his father. He had rebelled against every kind of authority, more than once he had gotten himself into trouble. And the more his dad freaked out the more he had enjoyed it. It had taken almost twenty years until he realized that it was time for his own life.
His eyes were thoughtfully resting on Casey. He was still not sure about what he was going to do, but maybe this was his last chance before Casey would leave Miami.
"Tell me, Casey, how old are you," he asked … as if he didn't know.
"Nineteen. Why?"
"So you are legal. Old enough to go your own way. You are not a puppet in his hands, you know."
"You mean ..."
Casey stopped, blinking wild.
Zeke nodded.
"I mean it's time for you to make a decision. You can move on like before. Follow all the rules of your dad, try to satisfy him … which will probably never happen ..."
"He just wants my best," Casey protested weakly.
"If you say so. In my eyes he acts pretty selfish. He didn't even try to understand you, it's all up to him and his way of life. But he can't force you to give up all your dreams, to make a show out of the rest of your life. When you are willing to take the risk, Casey, the world is open for you. You don't need to go to Law School just because he wants you to go."
Casey looked almost shocked as if the thought alone was a sacrilege. All too long he was following his father's wishes and had put back his own dreams. The thought to stand on his own two feet was bewildering and frightening. But Zeke could read in his eyes, how much he longed for doing this step.
"When I'm not going to Stanford, but stay back in Ohio and go to a local art school, he will kick me out of the house," Casey finally answered.
"You don't know him. I won't get a penny from him for school or needed photo-stuff. And I cannot afford that."
"You can't? You own two good hands and a smart head, Casey. Try it with jobbing."
Zeke chuckled at Casey's dumbfounded face.
"It's nothing wrong with it to work for your dreams, you know? Not everyone can live on daddy's credit card."
Suddenly looked Casey embarrassed.
"I'm not like that," he murmured.
"All this doesn't mean anything for me. Best time of my life … back in Herrington. My dad asked for good grades but beside of that he didn't care much about what I was doing."
"I know!"
Zeke nodded.
"He must be pretty blind that he doesn't notice how unhappy you are with the life he tries to force you into. But I agree with him in one point. It's a waste of talent to go to a local art school. Better try one of the great Colleges in Frisco or New York."
For a moment Casey looked stunned, then a smile sneaked on his face.
"I would like to go to New York," he admitted.
"The Film Academy. Their Photography School is one of the best, well-known all over the world."
"So, what are you waiting for? Send out your application. You have nothing to lose, huh?"
"It's too late. College starts next month. You need to enroll months ago."
"Fine. Go for next year. It will give you some time to settle down. Get familiar with the town. I'm sure you will fall in love with it in an instant."
Casey smirked.
"I know no one in New York. No place where I could crash. No money. No job. How should this work?"
"You could stay with me … at least for a while," Zeke said.
Casey looked bewildered.
"Here? In Miami?"
"In New York. Just some days … and I will go back there. It's just a small apartment in the basement and the bathroom is more a closet. But I'm sure we could find some room for you and your stuff."

This is a personal review of Appliance Servicenters Southeast company here is Augusta GA. If you in Augusta GA, I DO NOT recommend this service company,,, read on:
5-15-13 – We had a service appointment for a household refrigerator that was running warm, not cooling down properly. Appliance Servicenters Southeast sent a service repairman that arrived at 1:45pm. I opened the door and he shoved a business card literally in my face. He then walked back to truck, seen him grab his toolbox. I met him at the door again, let him in, he walked in the door shaking his head in disgust. Why, I do not know. 30 seconds after meeting him through front door I could tell something was not right with this service tech, and the attitude he was expressing though his body language.
I showed him the way to kitchen, and my dad proceeded to explain the problem with the refrigerator. I looked over at the repairman, and he was still shaking his head in disgust in a very negative way. Being disrepectful to my dad as he spoke as if he did not want to hear, listen to it or deal with it.
Service tech began to pull the refrigerator out, then grabbed his toolbox and walked out the front door without saying anything. Not even a minute later I walked towards front door and noticed his truck was gone. Service tech was not even in house 2 minutes, did not say a word other than expressing disgust and negativity through his body language and motions. He walked out and left without saying a word.
I'm 54 year sold, and have had my share of calling on service repair people over the years to the house. Have never had any problems, all good, but THIS experience with Appliance Servicenters Southeast this afternoon is by far the WORSE customer service experience I have ever come across!
I DO NOT recommend Appliance Servicenters Southeast

En-Twinned Lives: Twins Experts Thomas J. Bouchard, Jr. and Nancy L. Segal of the Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart Re-Unite to Discuss Behavior Genetics and Evolutionary Psychology
Miele, Frank, Skeptic (Altadena, CA)
THOMAS J. BOUCHARD, JR., is Professor of Psychology at the University of Minnesota and Director of the Minnesota Center for Twin and Adoption Research. He is best known for initiating and carrying out the Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart (MISTRA), which revealed the remarkable similarity in the behavior of identical (technically best termed monozygotic) twins who had been separated very early in life. This detailed study, which included physical, medical, and psychological measurements of a large number of such cases, established the importance of genetic factors in just about every aspect of human behavior.
The remarkable similarity of one pair of monozygotic twins reared apart, called the "Jim twins," captured worldwide media attention and led to the identification and study of many more cases. As described by Bouchard's colleague and co-interviewee Nancy Segal, in her book Entwined Lives, each Jim had a dog named "Toy," had been married twice--first to wives named "Linda" and then to second wives named "Betty," one named his son "James Allan," the other "James Alan," Both "Jims" drove a light-blue Chevrolet to Pas Grille beach in Florida for family vacations, smoked Salem cigarettes and drank Miller Lite beer, served as part-time sheriffs, bit their fingernails, suffered from migraine headaches, and left love notes to the wife around the house.
Professor Bouchard has conducted extensive research in human behavior genetics, as well as evolutionary psychology.
Recently published papers include: Koenig, L. B., & Bouchard, T. J., Jr. 2006. "Genetic and Environmental Influences on the Traditional Moral Values Triad--Authoritarianism, Conservatism and Religiousness--as Assessed by Quantitative Behavior Genetic Methods." In McNamara, P. (Eds.) Where God and Science Meet: How Brain and Evolutionary Studies Alter Our Understanding of Religion. Volume I: The Evolutionary Psychology of Religion: How Evolution Shaped the Religious Brain. Westport, CT: Praeger.
A publication currently in press is Bouchard, T. J., Jr., "Genes and Human Psychological Traits." In P. Carters, S. Lawrence & S. Stitch (Eds.), The innate mind: Foundations for the future (Vol. 3). Oxford: Oxford University Press.
NANCY L. SEGAL was one of Bouchard's most important collaborators on the MISTRA project. Now Professor of Psychology and Director of the Twin Studies Center, at California State University, Fullerton, she was named Distinguished Professor in the Humanities and Social Sciences and Outstanding Professor of the Year (2004-5). Dr. Segal also received the 2005 James Shields Award for Lifetime Contributions to Twin Research from the Behavior Genetics Association and International Society for Twin Studies, the 2008 Social Responsibility Award from the Western Psychological Association, and the 2006 International Making a Difference Award (Multiple Births Canada).
Dr. Segal is the author of Indivisible by Two: Lives of Extraordinary Twins (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2005/2007) and Entwined Lives: Twins and What They Tell Us About Human Behavior (NY: Dutton, 1999, NY: Plume 2000), and senior editor of Uniting Psychology and Biology: Integrative Perspectives on Human Development (Washington, DC: APA Press, 1997). She received a 2003-2004 American Fellowship from the American Association of University Women and is an Associate Editor of Twin Research and Human Genetics, the official journal of the International Society for Twin Studies. One of the most interesting pairs of separated identical twins Dr. Segal has studied and described are Oskar, who grew up Catholic in Nazi Germany, and Jack, who grew up Jewish in Trinidad.
Dr. Segal has appeared on Good Morning America, 20/20, the Oprah Winfrey Show and Discovery Health.
SKEPTIC REUNITED THESE "MINNESOTA Twins" to explain how twin and adoption research changed the face of psychology and explain the growing influence of human behavior genetics on evolutionary psychology, economics, and political science. …

It saddens me to look at what happen with the plastic ban bill (AB1998) possibilities for California. When I heard about the bill not passing the day it happened, I tried to talk about it, but inside I felt alone and powerless. Beth Terry from fake plastic fish has so much information and support. Please take a few moments to read her post. Hopefully she will inspire you to take action in ways you didn't think of before. I have copied her "what can we do now" suggestions.
We have to get on the stick, people. We can't just wait and assume that a bunch of environmental groups are going to solve this problem for us. We have to make our personal actions count. We've got to get outside our comfort zones and use our influence to halt the production and use of single-use plastics.
1) Stop using single-use plastics yourself. Just stop. No excuses. Forgetting bags at home is not an excuse. You don't develop a habit by letting yourself off the hook time after time. More than once, I have carried out my purchases in my hands. If I had too much to carry, I put stuff back. Because I don't have a car. But if you DO have a car, bring your cart out to the car, unload your stuff, carry it home and maybe put it in bags to bring it into the house. You won't forget again.
2) Talk to your friends and family about why you bring your own bags, bottles, containers, etc. with you. Don't be preachy but also, don't keep your actions to yourself. Yes, you have to start with your own personal actions, but if you leave it at that, we'll never make big enough change to make a difference. Set an example. Talk to people. Make your actions count for more.
3) Talk to store managers/owners about banning plastic bagsfrom their stores. It's worked in several places already. Rebecca Hosking in Modbury, England got all the merchants in her town to commit to stop handing out plastic bags. She circumvented the legislative process altogether. Green Sangha has put together a flyer that you can print out and hand to store employees explaining why you refuse plastic bags: Why I Don't Use Plastic Bags (PDF). The bottom of the flyer is the part that's most relevant.
4) Write to your legislators — local, state, and national — and demand legislation banning single-use disposable plastics, like plastic bags. Organize your family and associates to write letters too.
5) Use the power of social media to spread your campaigns. It's not hard, and IT'S FREE. We don't need the money of the plastics industry if we use the power that we do have. Our votes are what get them into office. We just have to let them know what it will take to win our votes.
Want some ideas for how to create a social action campaign? Ask me about Take Back The Filter. No really, if you're serious about creating a campaign, ask me. It takes commitment. But anyone can do it, and I mean YOU.
6) Write letters to the editor of your local paper. Worried about how to do it? Don't be. Just start writing. Keep your letter short and to the point. Here are some tips: How to Write a Letter to the Editor that Gets Published and Read. Seriously. Try it. The very first time I wrote a letter to the editor, it got published in Rolling Stone Magazine. I'm not kidding.
7) Take to the streets. Learn how to visit your representatives and talk to them. Participate in rallies. Get out and get to know the people in your neighborhood. Organize street cleanups and beach cleanups to make people SEE what single-use plastics are doing to the environment with their own eyes. These cleanups don't solve the problem, but they do spread awareness.
The point is that each of us must take our actions to the next level, whatever that is. Get a little outside your comfort zone. Try talking to a stranger once, and see how it feels and what happens. So many of us, women especially, are worried about people thinking we are "pushy" or that they won't like us. We worry about making people angry. So what? SO WHAT? I'm pretty angry about what we're doing to the planet and the fact that the monied interests are only concerned with maintaining a status quo that is killing us.
Do you think they're worried about making ME angry?


text: I am a 29 yr. old female whose hair has been thinning for the past few years. My hair is at its utmost worse. I have gone to dermatologists and I have gone to Bosley Medical hair restoration facility to have it evaluated. I was told I could have surgery done and that it might hopefully restore my hair. The thing is, I cannot afford the surgery. I am back in school full-time. I have left my job so that I could finish my last two semesters of school. Therefore, I can't even finance the thing because I have no income at the moment. The more time goes by, the more my hair keeps thinning. I even went to a hair salon to get hair extensions put on using a strand by strand method, but not even that could be done because the bonds were noticeable at the top of my head. So what am I left to do? I have no idea but I am simply in need of some consultation and help. Can someone please help me and guide me in the right direction. This is a terrible thing to have to deal with. I try and keep a positive outlook on life and I try to be happy for the most part, but there are times where it really gets to me. I know I am not the only one out there who is suffering internally; there are thousands or perhaps millions in my shoes. I hope the best for us all. Perhaps someone out there that can help will do so. Please, anyone that can help me out in this situation, please do so. All I need is direction as to what I should do. Thank you ...Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

Reliable yield maps allow farmers and farm consultants to analyze yields per field, within fields, across fields and across years. Yield maps can be used to develop yield stability zones, or to identify reason(s) for low/high yielding areas by overlaying them with other geospatially tagged data such as elevation maps, soil series maps, etc. For reliable data, pre-harvest calibration of yield monitors and sensors should be followed up by careful operation in the field and proper post-harvest data cleaning in the office (Figure 1). This article presents best practices (pre-harvest, in-field, and post-harvest) that minimize yield monitor data errors and noise, reduce loss of data, and speed up data cleaning.
- Field naming. Develop a simple and consistent set of field IDs or names for each farm. Make sure all operators know and use the correct field identification. Using numbers eliminates spelling errors. Inconsistency in a field's name from year to year results in extra, time consuming, post-harvest data clean-up.
- Field boundaries. Establish and load geo-spatially fixed/frozen field boundary files into the Yield Monitor prior to harvesting. This will assist in maintaining the accuracy of field IDs. Preloading fixed field boundaries facilitates assignment of harvest data to the correct fields as the harvester moves from field to field. Follow the procedures in your Yield Monitor manual to load boundary files before harvest begins.
- Calibrate. Calibration using accurate scale weights or a grain cart with load sensors will increase accuracy. When calibrating, harvest as you would normally do in average crop areas in the field (include variability in the field, not just the best part). Re-calibrate the yield monitor often – for each crop or even variety that is being harvested, and for significant changes in crop conditions (very dry to very wet). Check and zero the mass flow sensor every morning so that the sensor identifies crop flow accurately. Clean the lens of the moisture sensor and inspect for damage daily.
- Field name/ID. Check to be sure correct field name/ID is entered or displayed before harvester enters a new field. Avoid inventing field names "on the fly." Carefully check spelling if manually entering a field ID while harvesting. Misspelled or variations in field names from season to season make it difficult to match field data files across years for yield comparisons and within-field variability analysis. Proper field naming will ensure that yield data are assigned to correct field files.
- Harvest speed. Maintain a steady harvest speed within the calibration range for your system. Yield data recorded outside of the calibration range will be less accurate (irregular and/or very slow or high velocities over parts of the field result in yield calculations errors).
- Header height. Be sure the monitor logs a start and stop for each directional pass across the field to ensure data and yield area are logged properly. In most cases, the operator must lift the header beyond a set height to trigger the "stop logging" signal when exiting a pass or turning in the field. For some equipment, material flow can also be used to log the end of passes when the header is not raised for turning or for driving in the field without harvesting. Correctly logged field passes expedite trimming of unrepresentative start and end pass data points (ramping effect) during the cleaning process and proper shifting of data when correcting for flow and/or moisture delays relative to GPS location.
- Swath width. Be sure the recorded swath width is the actual width harvested. If swath width is not recorded properly, the harvested area calculated is wrong and so is the yield value. If the GPS system of the yield monitor has a large positional error (e.g. WAAS), turn off the auto swath adjustment and manually enter the default swath/chopper width. When harvesting less than the default chopper width without auto-swath, manually adjust swath width of the pass in the yield monitor to avoid erroneous yield calculations.
- Short rows. For long, narrow fields, plant and harvest rows the length of the field rather than the width if practical and consistent with soil conservation and other farm objectives. Short harvest passes distort yield data due to ramping velocity and flow impacts at the beginning and end of a pass, leaving few or no accurate data points in very short passes.
- Multiple combines/choppers in the field. If using more than one combine or chopper on a field, harvest a discrete section of the field with each one rather than mixing their passes across the whole field. Differences between operators, equipment and sensors result in different flow and moisture delays. These factors, if interlaced across the field, make it difficult to properly clean data.
Do not risk losing the season's data by just leaving it on your monitor or relying on the cloud to save it. Download the raw yield monitor data files periodically during the season. The data cleaning protocol requires raw data to be transferred into Ag Leader format. Save the original files, backing them up on thumb drives and on your computer.
In Summary
Reliable data are essential for making the right decisions in field management. Mitigating errors at the source reduces the amount of data loss when filtering out noise during the post-harvest data cleaning process. The accuracy of yield data depends not only on proper calibration of yield monitoring equipment prior to and during harvest, but also on operation in the field and post-harvest data cleaning. Data become more reliable and the data cleaning process can be accelerated with implementation of the pre-harvest, in-field, and post-harvest practices described in this article.

Labyrinth Lost by Zoraida Córdova
I was unexpectedly loving this book for about the first third to half. Unexpectedly because it was nominated for a reading program by someone whose taste in books doesn't usually mesh with mine. I love Alex's family and the descriptions of her sisters and mom moving so easily with their magic. I could feel how they were part of two worlds and I was drawn into their lives. I love the mythology Cordova has created for this book with the dead ancestors still being around and still having jobs to do after death. Alex's family's lives felt rich and homey while the female characters were strong, powerful and beautiful. I couldn't understand why Alex would be so dead set against taking her place with these wonderful people so that was one of my first issues with the book. But then again, there has to be some conflict to make a story so of course she has to be some sort of misfit.
Despite my issues with Alex, I was totally absorbed throughout the beginning of the book and even a ways into the adventures in Los Lagos. But then it all started to get too trippy for me. After finishing the book I read a bunch of reviews on GoodReads where many people referenced Alice in Wonderland for the section set in the underworld and that helped me to figure out why I didn't care for the end of the book since I am not an Alice fan nor do I like psychedelic literature. It started to fall apart for me at the section in the field with what are sort of fairy-esque creatures. But mostly, I had a hard time following where they went, how they got through the mountains, the battle scenes, the ghosts who helped them, what Alex's powers were, how they worked... It was not clearly drawn enough for me and all of that went on for too long. I wish the story had stayed in Brooklyn. Since tht didn't happen, I wish that the part of the story taking place in Los Lagos had been less frantic with well-defined events.
Finally - liked the relationship that developed even though it ended up being another insta-love situation. The hints about the relationship seemed obvious to me but I think that won't be the case for many readers.

Ireland has been just great so far! The weather has been a lot more clear than I thought it would be. We did have some snow here that actually stayed in the ground for so long that there were actual snowball fights (I heard that doesn't happen really often here); and I thought I ran away from snow when I left from Finland!
It really seems just like a typical autumn weather in Finland.
We also had a power outage in school, and the school just ended when the power went out. Too bad it was our last class!
We also made a trip to Killarney with a exchange student group. We had a stop in Limerick on the way for the day, where we visited a castle and a museum. And this market, that had a great atmosphere and a nice selection of different things, as seen in the pictures 🙂
The school in the Athlone Institute of Technology in general is a bit different than the TAMK. The school is a bit more like high school, so as the teachers teach, expect you to take notes and they give more homework and individual work to do than they do in Finland. I feel rather happy on my own studies so far, as the native Irish students seem to be a little bit lazy and thus they make me feel that I'm actually very clever!
A little bit about the beers, Guinness is just lovely here in Ireland, definitely a lot better than it is in Finland. Don't try Guinness in Finland, go to Ireland instead! You can't really imagine how much it differs before you try it.
The picture on the left-hand side is one of my favorite craft beers I tried in Ireland, Rustbucket from the Kinnegar brewing. It's a rye ale and the rye gives it a little bit sweetness but the taste is still quite strong and full of flavor.
I wish everyone has a nice stay 🙂

Muskurake Dekh Zara Movie Review 1
The Film
Muskurake Dekh Zara has hackneyed story that is presented as a modern day love drama and gets your mind fatigued.
The Synopsis
Vivek (Gashmeer Mahajani) arrives in Mumbai to become a chef. He has all the ill luck on his side. His bride-to-be runs away with another person on the night of his wedding. However, he falls in love with Preeti (Twinkle Patel) who in turn loves Prakash (Hiten Paintal). To his horror, Vivek finds out that Prakash is the same guy with him his fiancé eloped on his wedding night. The rest of the story deals with untangling the romantic mess.
The performances
With haphazard delineation of characters, no actor is able to perform in any impressive manner.
The Techniques
With a poor story line and poorer screenplay, the films rambles on with least interest in the technicalities of cinematic story-telling.
The Verdict
Muskurake Dekh Zara is a pain in you know where…recommend this to someone on whom you would love to take revenge.
The Cast and Crew
Gashmeer Mahajani, Twinkle Patel, Sunil Sabarwal, Simran Suri, Chirag Sethi, Hiten Paintal, Tiku Talsania, Mukesh Bhatt, Atul Parchure, Khayali, Rajshree Choudhary, Om Katare, Arijit Sen Gupta, Jiten Mukhi, Reshma Merchant and

Jakarta, Meet Your Most Active Member – Wonderline!
From the 15th of October, she will be leading you through a 6 Week Fitness Challenge By GuavaPass. Read more about Wonderline and the Challenge below!
I have always loved running long distances and that was my only form of fitness since I was young to keep me fit. Aside from having a stamina for running, I didn't know much about fitness. My siblings are very athletic but I never saw the need for incorporating fitness into my life, and only ran when I really needed to lose weight after the holiday seasons.
A few years ago, one of my girlfriends told me about GuavaPass back when they first launched in Jakarta, and it sounded so interesting, I signed up then and there.
I really got into it, and we ended up going to classes together instead of hanging out at our typical dinner and drinks spots. And it was so much more fun! I loved having the options to try out all these different types of exercises all over the city. It was a match made in heaven for me. Through GuavaPass, I discovered so many forms of exercises that I would never have tried on my own.
My sister is now an avid GuavaPass user after I roped her in, and we're constantly going for classes together. GuavaPass just made it so much easier for me to hang out with my loved ones. My dad even became a member for a couple of months to go for classes together with us!
I love new experiences and every new class and studio is like an adventure on its own. It gave me the opportunity to cross-train as well find out what I like in exercise and training. It allowed me to keep on going and growing. Having started GuavaPass in Singapore, I was able to continue with my fit lifestyle when I moved to Jakarta, and even when I go abroad on holidays in SouthEast Asia.
I think the most pivotal change that joining GuavaPass has resulted in is working out every day, and setting it to become one of my priorities. I used to favor Friday night outs, but now I would rather have a Friday evening spin class and rest early so I could enjoy an early Saturday morning class! I've definitely changed my eating habits as well as my entire lifestyle. Working out so often and keeping a healthy lifestyle gave me that extra glow on my skin as well! I also decided to pursue pilates more in-depth and have just recently completed my Stotts Pilates Certification. I'm not about to become a Pilates instructor or change jobs but experiencing Pilates classes on GuavaPass definitely sparked my interest in the exercise and made even more interested in knowing more about it.
My fitness journey definitely transitioned from losing weight to getting strong, and now it's becoming more aware, inside and out. I used to go for yoga classes and spins, then a lot of HIIT and circuit, kickboxing. Now, its all about control and awareness and I would like to incorporate it not only in my movements but also in other areas of my life!
