WELLESLEY, Mass., May 15, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hybrid cloud technology, which pairs the security of a private cloud with the cost-effectiveness of a public cloud, is set for explosive growth in coming years, according to a report by BCC Research.
The global market is expected to see a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.1% through 2022, when it could be worth $98.8 billion, according to the report Hybrid Cloud Technologies: Global Markets to 2022.
Major players in the market include Microsoft Corp., Oracle Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co., Cisco Systems Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon Web Service, VMware Inc., IBM, Rackspace Inc., Dell, Red Hat Inc., Atlantic.Net, Expedient, CenturyLink Inc., NTT America, DXC Technology Co., Hitachi Vantara, Alibaba Cloud, Flexential and Accenture.
Research Highlights
"Increasing need for collaboration among organizations and rising standards for interoperability between cloud services and existing systems are some of the factors influencing or driving the growth of hybrid cloud technologies in the global market," the report states. "However, challenges related to data security, compliance and legal issues, to some extent, are expected to hinder the growth of the market."
Growth May Be Restrained By Security and Legal Challenges
Though hybrid cloud solutions offer many benefits, there are lingering issues related to data security and compliance which are hindering full-fledged growth. Many organizations implementing hybrid cloud architectures are struggling with cloud security management, and this has become a significant problem. Also challenging growth is the presence of different regulatory and compliance requirements in different countries. For example, privacy laws in Europe and Japan demand that private data, including emails, be stored in data centers within those regions.

Ad of the Day: Secret's Latest Stress Test Has a Transgender Woman in a Pinch Women Know Well
Welcome to the ladies' room
Becoming a woman is hard. There's that whole awkward adolescence, then the long canyon of negotiating space—with men, in careers, with other women. It takes a while to know who you are, to figure out whether you like high heels or not, hair long or short, red lipstick or something less aggressive.
Are you less aggressive? Do you address problems or quietly wait them out? What does either position look like in the eyes of others? Are you interesting? Is it OK to want to be interesting and pretty? Do you have to smile when somebody asks you to?
It isn't a journey we'd impose on anybody.
And one of the biggest tests of everyday womanhood happens in public bathrooms, those social watering holes where grooming happens, decibels rise and packs form. The space is so small that you can't be ignored; you will be sized up. You time the length of your pee, even if no one else is listening. You follow conversation; whose voice is louder, who is dominating? Who gets the mirror, who's blocking the sink? And will you be tacitly accepted by the eyes you decide matter, in that eternal few minutes of relieving nature's call?
It's a little nothing, but it can mean a lot in the moment.
Secret introduces this very quandary in the latest installment of its #StressTest campaign from Wieden + Kennedy Portland. Women flood into a public bathroom, chatting amiably. It's a warm but sharply enviable space, full of pretty people who aren't questioning a word that comes out of their mouths—who aren't questioning themselves (even if they are, deep inside).
Meanwhile, in a dark stall, another woman panics. The cues are clear: She has probably always been a woman inside, but is just learning how to express that woman outside. She's in the negotiating-space portion of her transition. And it's deafeningly horrible.
After a deep breath, Dana exits her stall.
"Great dress," a voice says.
"It's really cute," says another.
Meanwhile, the words onscreen read, "Stress test #8260: Dana finds the courage to show there's no wrong way to be a woman."
As the ad wraps up, all the women watching collectively breathe out with our heroine.
"This ad was inspired by transgender women and a real-life moment which is stressful and challenging. This is one of many stories about women's stress we're proud to share," Janine Miletic, brand director of North America Deodorants at P&G, tells Adweek.
"Ladies' Room" has the unique quality of being both universally resonant among women, and timely, given the current political climate and all that hullabaloo about bathrooms and who gets to walk into which one.
"This spot was not intended to make any political statement or to support or oppose any specific legislation," Miletic clarifies. "We're nonpartisan and not affiliated with any political party. 'Stress-Tested for Women' builds on Secret's rich history of supporting all women who show courage in redefining feminine strength."
Per Miletic, Secret's objective has always been to support "confident, modern women" in its advertising. "The campaign highlights a variety of stressful situations that are culturally relevant, and how women face those challenges with courage every day," she says. "This spot is another story that we are telling through that lens. Secret knows it takes guts to redefine cultural norms, and proudly supports all women's efforts—big or small—to take life and stress head on."
At the end of the ad, Secret promises "2x better sweat protection" for when your glands become your enemies. We like the campaign because, instead of focusing on obviously sweaty moments—the classic "day at the gym"—the brand takes on situations unique to its target, small acts of bravery that take more out of us than the other sex can easily understand. To wit: Foregoing a more typical "job interview" scenario, Secret previously pounced on that touchy request for an overdue raise.
Dana's story follows in this path, and she's sure to resonate with the women in transition whose quiet everyday benchmarks haven't often been represented—much less this kindly.

Former British prime minister Tony Blair warns that political upheaval from Great Britain's Brexit vote in June to the collapse of the Italian government on Sunday signals the most dangerous time for Western democracies in decades.
"It does feel perilous, actually, because I think there are decisions that are being taken of vast moment in circumstances where systems are fragile," he told Capital Download on Monday. "And that is troubling."
It has been a year of unexpected victories by populist and nationalistic forces that are challenging the establishment: passage of the referendum pulling Britain from the European Union, the election of Donald Trump as president in the United States, defeat of a measure in Italy that prompted the prime minister to announce his resignation.
More from USA Today:
Paul Ryan: Obamacare phaseout will leave 'no one worse off'
NYC mayor wants $35 million for Trump Tower security
Navy Secretary recommends two Medals of Honor
And in the Austrian election Sunday, the candidate representing the party founded by former Nazis lost — but after commanding 46% of the vote.
Blair, who was in Washington to address a conference sponsored by the bipartisan group No Labels, announced last week the launch of a new organization that will try to help build a more muscular policy agenda for centrists and encourage networking among them across Europe, in the United States and elsewhere. Given the rise of extreme voices on the left and right, he said, "I'm not sure we're asking the right questions right now, never mind giving the right answers."
Of particular concern to him is a "longing" for an authoritarian leader.
"It's amazing how many people you will find who will reference a style of leadership of (Russian) President Putin in a positive way," he told USA TODAY's weekly video newsmaker series. "I think people want their country moving and they think that if the present system is not moving it, and not making the changes that they want to see, then maybe someone who just says, 'I don't care what anyone thinks; I'm just going to go for it, and this is what I'm going to do' — that has a certain attraction.
"If the center isn't a place of strength and vitality, and it looks kind of flabby and just managing the status quo, then you're at risk of someone coming along and doing that."
In his speech to the No Labels conference, he faulted some centrist political leaders for failing to do enough to improve the economic prospects for workers disrupted by globalization and to ensure a sense of personal safety at a time, for instance, that Great Britain and other European countries have absorbed a wave of immigrants from Syria. "People will only put aside prejudices if they think there are rules," he said.
Blair sees a common thread from Brexit's passage to Trump's election to support for Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, a provocative figure whose anti-drug campaign is blamed for thousands of deaths.
"There is immense amount of anger at established ways of doing things," Blair said. "There is, I think, a whole group of people who feel ignored by those in power, that is for sure true. There is more anger around in politics than for a long time." While issues such as immigration aren't new, there is "much greater skepticism towards globalization and the benefits of it."
What's more, "social media is a revolutionary phenomenon," he went on. "It changes the way politics works. It changes the way the media works. If we're not careful, it locks people into conversations with people who just agree with them, and who then have a general conspiracy-theory view of the rest of the world."
Blair has never met Trump and didn't criticize him.
Asked about whether it was wise for Trump to accept a congratulatory telephone call from the president of Taiwan — the sort of conversation every American president since 1979 deliberately has avoided — Blair demurred. "I'm not going to get into your politics," he began. "To be honest, in the end, I'll tell you what I really think: Let's see how it works out."

You've heard the phrase, "We don't deserve dogs," and if you've ever even met a Very Good Boy (or Girl), you know it's true. And that selfless, uplifting nature of the beast is the basis of new play by Deborah Haber. "LIKAH!" (Pronounced lee-kah) features a joyful, storytelling pup whose story is meant to help children deal with the issue of loss. The character is based on the Haber's real-life Border collie, whose life Haber began chronicling in a diary. During this time, Haber lost her sister to ovarian cancer, followed by the death of her older dog. "As I chronicled Likah's life's journey, I realized the significant message within this sweet pup's story," Haber said in a provided statement. "I realized what I was documenting was actually my own experiences through Likah's eyes." Before its New York City debut in the fall and national launch, the play will be presented as a series of staged readings in Rochester. A portion of the proceeds will benefit CURE Childhood Cancer Association, Education Success Foundation, and Lollypop Farm.
Friday, May 17, at 7 p.m.; Saturday, May 18, at 2 p.m.; and Sunday, May 19, at 1 and 4 p.m. at Geva Theatre Center (75 Woodbury Boulevard). $10. Recommended for ages 5 and older. 232-4382; gevatheatre.org.

Sometimes you just have to make things all gone.
I moved into our new home the end of May. Somehow, believe it or not, most of the rooms still have one or two unfinished projects hanging out.
In the bedroom there is the unhung painting of lovebirds. In the living room my doll collection awaits a display box, posters wait for frames and … In the dinette an army of little nick knacks litter the window sills.
I'll stop now before I totally stress you out too.
Unfinished projects are a part of life and so is choice. Today I chose to put these bits and bobs into a big plastic bin that slides so nicely under a table. Poof! Just like magic the "to dos" fade back, the guilt is gone and I am enjoying the house more.
What do you need to pack or bag? Give yourself permission to not be perfect today or tomorrow or this month.
Now, enjoy the rest of your day. I will.

-A woman from Kwale County is appealing to well-wishers to help her two-year-old son access treatment for a rare condition
-The boy was born without anus. In addition, the young one had both the male and the female organs
-She is asking well-wishers to enable her raise KSh 330,000 required for the corrective surgery to be conducted at the Kijabe Mission Hospital
Esther Mwende Mwamyugah, 28, understands the pain of bringing up a child born with a congenital anomaly.
Two-year-old Riziki Shee Mwangare was born without the posterior opening for removing waste. In addition, the young one had both the male and the female organs.
READ ALSO: NASA yafichua mbinu kabambe itakayomfanya Uhuru Kenyatta ajiuzulu mwenyewe
Dr Nicodemus Mwea, a senior paediatric surgeon at the Coast Province General Hospital (CPGH) notes that young Shee suffers from proximal hypospadias and anorectal malformation.
Hypospadias is a birth defect of the urethra in the male where the urinary opening is not at the usual location on the head of the penis.
Between November 2015 and March last year, doctors made a channel in the stomach to enable him to pass stool like other normal children.

Apart from the corrective surgery, young Shee will require an operation to pave way for urine.
Subsequent operations would also aim to have the testicles which are currently located inside the body brought out.
The corrective surgeries would also have the female organs "sealed" given past biopsy tests have indicated that Shee is male.
"Biopsy specimen from his private parts showed that he is indeed a male," says Esther holding out a document from Lancet Laboratories containing the test results.
"I'm the only one in the whole village with a child with this type of condition. Sometimes neighbours laugh out loudly at my son whenever he ventures out to play," says Esther.
She says it has not been easy staying in her Tiribe village in Kwale County where villagers claim that she is bewitched.

A letter by a doctor who has been attending to Shee estimates the corrective surgery to be conducted at Mombasa Hospital or Kijabe Mission Hospital would cost KSh 330,000.
She says earnings from her husband who is a boda boda operator can hardly support the family leave alone pay for the child's treatment.
"I used to wash cloths for people but I was forced to quit so as to take care of my son," she says.

Using a simulation model crafted to integrate the short-run and long-term impacts of tax reform on the housing market, we find modest impacts from fundamental reform of the Federal income tax. These results suggest that concerns over the impact of tax reform on housing values and household net worth are overstated. To the extent that reform is otherwise desirable, fears of drastic effects on the housing market should not stand as an impediment to reform.
A revised version of this paper appears as "Fundamental Tax Reform and Residential Housing," (with Donald Bruce), Journal of Housing Economics, Vol. 8, No. 4, December 1999, pp. 249-271.

Chalfont St. Giles Church
Chalfont St. Giles Church in Buckinghamshire has various churches for distinct religious faiths such as Anglican, Baptist and Methodist. It is frequent for a town to have more than one church and Chalfont St. Giles is no exception.
Alas church attendance has been falling for the last 50 years in the United Kingdom, with 15% of the population attending at least once every month, nevertheless Atheists and Agnostics are still in a minority, representing 33% of the residents.
We think the grounds for the decline is in simple terms that people do not believe in God any more, with wars raging across the planet and the wealth of the nation in a bad way it's straightforward to comprehend peoples lack of faith. In our opinion the Church needs to be re-branded, if you think of the staple values of Church such as togetherness, family, marriage and community leaving aside God for a second! If you ruminate on all the good things that Churches represent in our Chalfont St. Giles community then it is in reality astonishing figures are going down. Surely we all want our Chalfont St. Giles to be a fantastic place to dwell, where people get along, they assist each other in times of need and people offer to each other without asking anything back in return. So what we are asking is for you to go along to your Chalfont St. Giles church and plea for change, you want to help, and you think it is only right and proper that the rest of your community chip in and help with things. The UK is on its knees because nobody wishes to work to a greater goal...it is time for change...come on people..let's get together and make this happen
Churches in the past and future have worked together with other organisations such as native schools, groups such as the beavers, cubs and scouts as well as being prominent in assisting other groups of inhabitants such as the lonely, humble and abused. The church is seen as doing good causes which sees them in a good light.
Churches have been seen in a dim light recently with the pope resigning, the first pope in more than six hundred years, and nobody was entirely sure of the reason why, a lot of people have speculated that it is not just a matter of the pope getting older and not being able to carry out his job to the fullest.
The scottish Cardinal Keith O'Brien recently deserted after admitting sexually inappropriate moves to young men schooling to be priests, considering his anti-gay rhetoric in bygone times, this was seen as "do as I say not as I do"!
On the lighter side of things churches are seen as a very peaceful position to be - a good place to reflect on the things that are happening in your life at the present moment.
A game we used to play as children was to find the oldest headstone..i.e. the earliest date, that is a game that can keep children smiling for a while as well as giving them good exercise as they run/walk round the cemetery.

The Girl from Slytherin was sly, manipulative, ambitious, determined and cunning, everything a Slytherin should be. So why did she, the girl who got put into the 'evil' house have such an affect on the rest of the school? Wasn't everybody else meant to hate the Slytherin's? Was it because she was a trouble-maker, yes. But there was something else about her. Something that nobody could quite understand.Something that inticed people to want to find out what was really hidden behind those dark Green eyes.

Both mechanical and laser cuttersare normal fabricating processes found in today's manufacturing companies. Each method uses its unique equipment and contains its benefits and drawbacks. Preference on the list of two usually depends upon a variety of factors, such as application prerequisites, cost-effectiveness, and output capabilities.
Mechanical Cutting Resources and Processes
Mechanical cutting, which includes tooling and machining, is a process that utilizes power-driven apparatus to form and form a substance right into a predetermined design. Some typically typical laser cutter machines found in mechanical cutting contain lathes, milling equipment, and drill presses, which match the operations of switching, milling, and drilling, respectively. More details!
A lathe is metalworking equipment that spins materials, usually which has a computer-controlled electric motor, while a laser cutter machineremoves excess inventory to create the required shape. Cutting substance may be used to help maintain temps handle, lubricate the going parts, and take away particles, or "swarf," from the work piece.
Milling Machine
A milling machine includes a stationary cutting instrument as well as a movable desk to that your work piece is anchored. Manual or pc directions maneuver the table around the rotating blade to help make the desired slashes. Milling machines,just like a laser cutter machine,can handle creating sophisticated or symmetrical forms across axes. The four primary types of milling machines happen to be hand-milling, plain-milling, widespread, and universal styles.
Drill Press
A drill press is a fixed drill mounted to some stand, or bolted to the ground, and motivated by an induction motor unit. It includes a foundation, a pillar, a desk, a spindle as well as a drill brain. A three-pronged cope with raises or reduces the drill little to create cylindrical holes in a very work piece. Because the tad spins and slashes the steel, the fluting around the drill holds the dirt, or swarf, way up and from the hole.
Laser Cutting Products and Methods
Laser cutting utilizes a power emission device to target a highly-concentrated blast of photons onto a little section of a work piece and reduce precise designs from the material. A laser cutteris usually computer-controlled and will make highly correct cuts with an excellent finish. The most frequent laser cutters are generally from the gaseous CO2 or Nd:YAG selection.
CO2 Lasers
The skin tightening and co2 laser cutteremit a gasoline discharge that will serve as a method for a light source beam. It is among the highest-powered continuous influx lasers used today, primarily because of its high output-to-pump-power proportion. Carbon dioxide-based beams slip over the infrared side on the light range, with wavelength rings calculating between 9.4 and 10.6 micrometers. They're famous for welding, cutting, and engraving metals, in addition to resurfacing biological muscle.
Nd:YAG Lasers
Unlike co2 laser cutter, neodymium-doped yttrium metal garnet, or Nd:YAG, lasers happen to be solid-state units that work with a crystal-like a light-medium. Besides, they feature laser beam diodes or display lighting fixtures that optically water pumps their beams, which emit an infrared wavelength of 1064 nanometers. Nd:YAG products are a few of the most common lasers found in manufacturing, with software in welding, cutting, engraving, marking, and etching some materials.
Mechanical Trimming vs. Laser beam Cutting
Since laser-cutting will not only cut stuff but apply carry out to something, it's instead a more streamlined procedure than its mechanical options, which often need post-machining treatments. Furthermore, there is absolutely no direct contact between your laser machine and the stuff, reducing the opportunity of contaminants or unintentional marking. The laser cutter machine as well creates a more compact heat-affected area, which lowers the chance of materials warping or deformation on the cutting site. Click here for more information:

I see a lot of documentation and questions about what the currying technique is, but I have found very little information on why one would use it in practice. My question is, what are the advantages of currying? Perhaps you can provide a trivial example where currying would be preferable to conventional method invocation.
I work in C++ while the sun is up, so to date I have had little exposure to currying other than out-of work tinkering with languages.

If you've been involved in a road traffic accident (RTA), and your airbag has failed to deploy, you may be entitled to claim compensation. You can also claim faulty airbag injury compensation if your airbag has deployed when it shouldn't have done. Overall, airbags are great pieces of safety equipment which have helped to save lives in all road traffic accidents.
However, if they aren't fitted correctly, or the airbag itself is faulty, then they can lead to serious injuries and even wrongful death. Here at Tylers Solicitors, we can help you to claim faulty airbag injury compensation claims following any kind of RTA.

Airbag Injury Compensation Calculator
The amount of compensation that you may be entitled to receive depends on a range of different factors. The most important factors are how severe your injuries are and to what extent these injuries can be blamed on the airbag.
If an airbag deployed which caused your injuries without an associated road traffic accident, you are likely to have a stronger case and seek a higher level of compensation.
If you're curious about how much compensation your faulty airbag injury could be worth, use our simple faulty airbag injury compensation calculator below!
Burned by Airbag Combustion Compensation Amounts
|When your airbag deploys, it is possible for the speed of the deployment, or issues with the combustion, to leave you with noticeable burns. These burns can be relatively minor, but in some cases, they can leave you with permanent scarring and even long-term health conditions. A faulty airbag can deploy with too much pressure, or combust during deployment, which can easily lead to serious burns. The amount of compensation you will be able to claim for depends on the severity of the burns and any long-term health conditions.
|£1,360 to £85,340
Facial Damage Following Faulty Airbag Deployment Compensation Amounts
|One of the primary benefits of airbags is that they protect your face and head during a road traffic accident. However, if these airbags are faulty, they sometimes will not deploy, or deploy in such a way that your head and face is unprotected. A faulty airbag can lead to a range of serious head and facial issues, including scarring, damage to teeth, jaw fractures, loss of hearing, eye injuries and more.
|£1,360 to £307,000
Chest Injuries Due to Faulty Airbag Deployment Compensation Amounts
|Some of the chest injuries you might suffer from following a defective airbag deployment (or lack of deployment) can be incredibly serious. In some cases, a faulty airbag during a road traffic accident can lead you to suffer from crushed lungs, broken ribs and more cosmetic issues like serious bruises or scarring. In some cases, chest injuries caused by faulty airbags can even life threatening or lead to long-term health conditions.
|£3,150 to £131,620
Wrongful Death Caused by Faulty Airbag Compensation Amounts
|In the worst circumstances, it is possible for a faulty airbag to lead to a wrongful death. Airbags are an essential piece of safety equipment in any road traffic accident. If they failed to deploy, and the RTA resulted in a wrongful death of a loved one, you may be entitled to claim compensation. When it comes to wrongful deaths, there are many different factors taken into consideration, including age of the deceased, role in your household and dependants.
|Can Exceed £307,000

The MOTHERLOAD
Mar 30th
The word for today is "motherload" because that's exactly what today's Sparkle Video is. "Dancing Queen" features the ladies of ABBA in the outfits: slinky sequin catsuits with matching neckties(?) and boots. Their disco ball-esque set is so effective at drawing you in to the mood as swirling dancers move all around them like a dream. At approximately 2:56, the "light-up dance floor" on the stage kicks in for a dazzling grand finale and then to top it off..it's a karaoke video! All this is just too much Soldiers, and when I say "too much" I mean perfect. The motherload.
Multi-Sparkle Ear: APPROVED!
Mar 29th
Posted by lasparkles in APPROVED!
I saw this today and was so delighted that I had to take a photo. This eye catching ear decorated in fabulous Multi-Sparkle belongs to Honey, manicurist to the stars, who is so rightfully proud of her dazzling good taste that she quickly turned around so that I could capture the other side. She is a true believer in "More is More" and assured me that it never crossed her mind to go minimal with her colorful gemstones and Honey… that kind of style is always APPROVED!
CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF of SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!
Mar 23rd
For your pleasure on Sparkle Video Day, I have chosen to feature two videos of the same song by the same group because I honestly couldn't decide which was more splendid.
Video A shows the Boys Town Gang performing their hit "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" in a standard "lip-sync-to-track" moment but looking marvelous nonetheless. The male backup "dancers" (something makes me think they're not really dancers) are rocking their best matching leather daddy looks and Jackson Moore's dress screams early 80's disco fashion in the most fabulous way. Batwing sleeves, down-turned metallic belt and draping made to move with her body as she slinks around on stage is purely top drawer!
Video B features an appearance on Top of the Pops where they're singing live and feeling it! In this version, the backup "dancers" are also backup singers and while they're covered a bit more they still make sure to have guns fully exposed in matching electric red low-slung tanks. As for the lovely Ms. Moore, all I can say is "eat your heart out American Apparel!". She is working full length black satin explosion like the Johnny Cash of Disco and I'm loving it!
The Multinauts
Mar 22nd
Posted by lasparkles in Stuff
A while back Ronson went out and hired real live video specialists to create a dazzling promo for one of our parties. They used all kinds of tricks to make him look like he was zipping around in outer space and it was pretty darn cool. Well, check out The Multinauts who have totally raised the bar by making a Sci-Fi series of galactic proportion. Aside from the usual things you'd expect from a show about space, they also wisely included a lot of special elements to make this series such a smashing success. Cocktail parties, gobs of lasers, hot electro music and bitchy fetish queens are some of the fabulous things in their universe and I want more so I'm hoping they add a new episode soon. Perhaps I should suggest they film one at the next Join the Sparkle Army party… but it will be called "The Multi-Sparkle-nauts"!
Mar 16th
It's been a while since we had some Rock n' Roll on Sparkle Video Day and there's no more glamorous, rockingess, sparkle-tastic one than The Gossips's "Heavy Cross". First and foremost: OUTFIT! Holla Beth Ditto! This is a girl after my own heart and the personification of "More is More". Hair, makeup, nails, jewels- she is completely covered in fabulosity. Even in her more casual look she makes sure to wear a sparkling black "T", post-punk eye makeup and dramatic red lips. As for the music, it's right on point with how I like my rock which is hard hitting with lots of rhythm for dancing and this song rages with the passion in her voice. I'd also like to give special sparkle kudos to the director for adding the flowing glitter effect that encompasses everything (exactly what glitter is meant to do!) and for lighting it all with star filters because just like me, that never gets old.
Escape Machine
Mar 15th
Posted by lasparkles in Music
This past Monday was my birthday and also the release date of "Escape Machine" and might I say, what a fabulous coincidence! In fact, at first listen it was exactly like eating a piece of deliciously rich chocolate cake when that magical first bite sends shivers down your spine and jolts of electricity through your heart. It's still that way no matter how many times I play it and that's because Sare Havlicek has left no frequency untouched on his latest concoction of sounds. If I had to choose only one word to describe how it makes me feel, I would say "happy", however there's no way for me to choose one favorite track so here's a small glittering taste.
The journey begins with "Diamondback, Pts. l & ll" which leads with an orchestrated string open that sounds like the beginning of a classical serenade and then KABLAM! You are in space transport! From there, the experience is a dazzling combo of Sare's trademark cosmic instrumentals mixed with super catchy and hypnotic vocals and then sprinkled with a bit of funk. Singer Hannah Mancini takes "Vibe On You" to a special place I like to call "the love child of Chic and Lisa Stansfield" and.. guess what? There's boys! Yes, male vocals are also included this time around featuring Mitja and Charlie Denholm which add some new layers to Sare's "cake". Perhaps it falls under the TMI category, but "White Noise Voice" gives me tingles in all kinds of places and speaking of tingles, if this was the 70's "Burning Hot" would surely be on the soundtrack to one of those disco-tastic disco porn movies. "Sense Station" kicks major-bass-ass and "12 Fingered Chime" takes me instantly to a hot summer night on a rooftop party watching the sun go down surrounded by good friends with smiling faces, sparkley cocktails in hand and makeshift dance floor going strong. In other words, happy.
(Escape Machine is released on Nang Records)
BEAM ME UP to SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!
Mar 9th
One of the most fabulous things about being a Pisces is that you are on the same page with all other Pisces about basically everything, but when you happen to share the same exact birth date, it's more like KABLAM!. Such is the case with myself and devoted Sparkle Soldier Ana, who chose today's Sparkle Video to kick-start our birthday celebration weekend (that's right 3 whole days of disco balls, laser beams and sparkling cocktails!) and what a dazzling number of perfection! A group after my own heart, Midnight Magic not only pays homage to a classic disco bass-line, but also honors the Word of Glitter in the most righteous way. "Beam Me Up" truly has everything one could ask for including a trumpet playing alien, whaling keytars , a glitter encrusted space warrior who casts "light-up-dance-floor beams" down to earth and a lead singer whose haunting vocals have a hint of the late great Teena Marie. However, the most fabulous thing about Tiffany Roth is that she and I share the same makeup aesthetic, which I call the "Sparkle Onslaught", which defines itself as a look that has no glitter limits (as IF there ever would be!). The best part of today is that they are playing live tonight at Le Bain which is where I'll be, and so should you, in a cache of glimmering sequins.
Mar 2nd
Today's Sparkle Video has several things that are near and dear to my heart: disco balls, animals, hot guys and sexified dancing. Most of all, it features the ultra-fabulous Charo who has taken up the cause to ban bullfighting in her home country of Spain and here in "Dance, Don't Bullfight", she pleads her case extremely well. I'm sure when given the choice, most people would choose boner grinding bedazzled beauties on the dance floor over watching an animal be tormented and killed – but that's just my opinion as a professional veterinarian. However one look at Manolo, Charo's adorable pet bull who also stars in this video, and I think you'll agree that this cruel "sport" has got to go! I will miss those tight toreador pants tho'… Cuchi Cuchi!
Magic Showerhead

Dear Constant Reader,
Happy Friday! Here's your tip!
When removing garments, position the removal downstage.
You want the audience to see you remove the garment, so you should avoid blocking the action with your body. On the other hand, if you're trying to remove something more covertly, turn it upstage.
I am clearly lacking in performance photographs* because this photo by RDJ After Dark is the only picture I could find even close to illustrating this tip, and you can't see the stocking I am removing from my downstage leg because black on black…
Like this tip? There are lots more in Miss Mina Murray's Little Book of Better Burlesque.

If you are into the business management world, you've probably heard about the concept of "Design Thinking". This methodology consists of understanding the person's needs, in order to create the best process to reach the solution.
According to Arne van Oosterom, Founder and Senior Facilitator of DesignThinkers Academy , "It allows you to first find the right question and then fit the process to it. Design thinking gives you the freedom and tools to question everything and break away from constrictions, biases and blind spots."
However, not everyone is aware of the benefits Design Thinking can bring to B2B and B2C strategies. One of the experts in this topic is Ashley Welch from Somersault Innovation, whose sales grew disruptively by approaching her customers following the basis of Design Thinking. From her experience, we defined these simple five steps for improving any sales strategy:
Step 1. Become a "detective"
One of the main lessons of Design Thinking is asking the "why" of everything and not taking anything for granted. For achieving this, you need to understand your customers in the deepest way possible and find a proper answer to the question: "Why do they need your service/product?".
This may seem an easy and old-fashioned question, but it all depends on how further you are analysing the customer and how many factors you are using to find the answer. That's why we need to become a "detective". Once we understand their routines, body language, their way of working, their perspective, how they behave as a seller and as a customer, etc., then we will have a real proper answer.
Step 2. Be an Active Listener
When selling a product, we may make a common mistake, which is having an answer ready in our mind, even before the customer replies. This is because, as sellers, we are used to being focused on our product. However, the center of our attention should not be the product, but the customer. For this reason, it is very important to develop the ability of Active Listening, that is, hearing and understanding what people are really saying.
Improving our Active Listening skills is as easy as developing some simple habits, such as showing that you are listening by nodding, sharing your opinions respectfully and avoiding judgments and interruptions.
Step 3. Consider many different ideas
Another common mistake is using the same approach for different situations, just because it led to a desirable outcome in the past. Every person is different, then each customer will have different needs and different problems.
The best way of accomplishing this goal is having as many different opinions as possible and avoid any kind of judgement towards other ideas. You will reach a better outcome having five people working on it for one day, than having one person working five days.
Once you have all the ideas, try to complement some of them, instead of rejecting all ideas except for one. This process may take time and you may need to repeat it with different ideas. But once you reach the final decision, you will be sure that it is the best solution.
Step 4. Show your Value Proposition
It is time to meet with the customer and present your result. In the presentation, find a way to show them the deep research you did in Step 1. Make them see both your data-based and ethnographical findings. Doing this, you will make the difference.
Another tip to keep in mind, is letting them know that Design thinking is not only about covering customers' needs, but also giving value to their businesses. That is why we should sell the solution as a Value Proposition. Presenting it from this perspective is one of the key factors for success.
Step 5. Be empathetic
Design Thinking is about understanding others' needs, so that we always need to take into account their way of thinking and their emotions. Be curious about them. Only by doing this, we will reach an effective outcome.
Consider this as an advice and a reminder, more than a final step. Empathy must be present in all the process. As Arne van Oosterom said, "Design thinking is an essential mindset to build empathy with users, really listen and walk in their shoes."
There are many cases of companies whose sales have grown after changing to a Design Thinking mindset, such as Tesla or Uber. But the results are always better when these steps are followed in every aspect of the organization, such as Operations and Human Resources. The key is always understanding others, being open-minded, having a willingness to learn and avoid negative criticism.

Hence, Dr Sriram Shankar, a cardiothoracic surgeon at Gleneagles' treated Lukose with an open-heart surgery and three coronary artery bypass grafts. Dr Shankar waived the fee for his service, knowing his family's financial concerns; yet, he was billed SGD78,000 by the private hospital while recovering at home.
Lukose's family had made a crowdfunding appeal to raise funds for his hospital bills, as the MediShield Life and his employer insurance (covers only SGD13,500) would not be enough to cover his hospital bills.
Subsidised treatment, limited hospital beds for emergency patientsMediShield Life was created in 2015 to provide general medical coverage for all Singaporeans including permanent residents, from birth till death. It targets Class B2/C wards to reduce burdens of hefty medical bills among patients – if they opt for subsidised treatment.
In case of emergencies, patients are taken immediately to the nearest public hospital, where subsidised treatment under MediShield Life would be an option. For Lukose who needed emergency medical attention, he had no choice but to be admitted into the nearest private hospital.
This brings forward two main concerns within the Singapore healthcare system. Firstly, the lack of hospital beds in the emergency department of public hospitals; and next, the limited financial protection for these patients with a basic insurance coverage at times of need.
Statistics under the Ministry of Health (MOH) showed the total number of hospital beds in Singapore was 11,936 in 2001 and only increased by about 2.8% to 12,268 in 2016. However, the national population has increased by 37% from 4.1 million in 2001 to 5.61 million in 2016, according to the Department of Statistics Singapore.
This translates to a disparity where there is a limited number of hospital beds to accommodate a possible surge of emergency patients.
Additionally, Singapore's public healthcare spending is just about 2.4% of GDP (SGD 9.8 million out of SGD 400 billion) – which is probably one of the lowest in the world. Limited budget allocated to the healthcare sector fetches limited subsidies available for patients.
Limited government subsidies on healthcare sector; financial burden for patientsLooking at Singapore's healthcare system – the national health scheme comes with a key principle where no medical service is provided free of charge (regardless of subsidised amount). It is a hybrid model of health care system, combining government subsidies with patient co-payments. This makes Singapore healthcare system being ranked as one of the world's best, with a relatively low cost to the government.
Yet, more than 60% of healthcare costs are paid by patients out-of-pocket, with less than one-third of all healthcare costs are paid by the government. The health insurance provided may not pay for the full hospital bill. As follows, patients will need to pay an initial amount (called a "deductible") based on a subsidised class, as well as co-pay the rest of the bill. Aside from that, they will have to pay 10% of the rest of the bill for Integrated Plans.
Workers are contributing up to 10.5% of their wages to mandated savings accounts (Medisave account), for health care and insurance. This is much higher than the average of 14% in high income countries, according to World Health Organisation (WHO), and may be one of the highest national health insurance contribution (pre-pay basis) globally.
Even with the government subsidy, hefty medical bills can cause financial strain among patients, especially those without add-on integrated plans for more expensive hospital treatments. Thus, those who need urgent medical attention might not be able to afford them – especially among those who are dependent on basic insurance coverage only.
With the well-receiving media attention, Lukose's family managed to raise about SGD16,000 on the crowdfunding website, according to the Straits Times. As of recent updates, Gleneagles Hospital waived Lukose' medical bills, and the funds raised would be donated to those in need. MIMS

Young Boy Arrested For Refusing To Go To School. Moving can be hard for any prepubescent teenager and they usually act out in all sorts of way when they are upset with moving to a new city or state. Well this 14-year-old boy decided that he wasn't going to go to school anymore. What happened next? His mom called the police and then he was arrested.
The 14-year-old really didn't want to go to school in St. Augustine, Florida. Him and his mother had just moved there from New York and the boy refused to go to school anywhere but there. When met with the challenge, the boy's mother first took away his cell phone and disconnected the internet and the boy still stood his ground. So logically the next step was to call the police..
When the cops arrived the boy clearly told them he wasn't going to school. The officers told him that it was either that or jail and the boy's reply was, "Do what you gotta do. I'm not going to school." So the police took the 14-year-old to the juvenile detention center. Do you think it was right for the boy's mother to call the cops to soon? As a parent shouldn't you try a little harder than taking away and punishing the boy? Especially when it was clearly your decision to move and not his. What do you think? Share this article and let us know.

Smart's latest limited-edition fortwo debuts in Geneva with green paint and a green spirit.
As more and more smart fortwos hit the streets, drivers of the microcars may begin to feel the need to stand out. That's where the company's limited edition trim packages come in. The latest special-edition smart fortwo scheduled to debut in Geneva will be green in color and in spirit. The "edition limited three" bows with unique green paint, a cheerfully redesigned interior and a standard stop-start system.
Like past smart special editions, the limited three starts with special paint. This time around, it's a handsome metallic melon green, accented by aluminum finished "limited three" badges and staggered-width fifteen-inch wheels. The limited three is available as a coupe or a cabriolet.
Inside, the melon green motif is continued, with color-matched fabric and dark brown leather accents on the steering wheel and shift knob. Matte silver trim is also liberally used, giving the limited three a distinctive look on the inside. The limited three is based on the fortwo's "passion" option package, so standard equipment includes smart's softouch automatic-manual transmission, power windows and automatic climate control. Coupe versions of the limited three also get a panoramic roof with a sunshade. Power steering, heated seats and an upgraded sound system are on the options list.
Keeping the limited three green at heart is the micro-hybrid drive (MHD) technology, which integrates a stop-start system. When the limited three's speed drops below eight km/h, the already frugal 52 kW/71 hp shuts down entirely. The engine restarts when the brake pedal is released. Smart claims fuel savings of 8 to 20 percent in stop-and-go traffic. CO2 emissions are also reduced.
The smart fortwo edition limited three bows in Geneva, with German pricing including VAT set at €15,470 for the coupé and €18,510 for the cabrio.

This is the first blog in our "Digital Marketing to Physicians" series. In the coming weeks, we'll take a close look at how health systems, medical device manufacturers, and healthcare recruiters can use digital marketing to engage specific physician audiences.
How much time do you spend thinking about email deliverability? If you're like most medical device marketers, the answer is probably "not much."
Deliverability is a measure of your ability to get an email into the intended recipient's inbox. It's the most fundamental metric of email marketing, but it's often overlooked. In the rush to write and design your email messages, optimize their deployment timing, and analyze the resulting data, it's easy to forget about deliverability. Yet your email campaigns will never be truly successful without high deliverability rates.
Here's why deliverability matters for medical device marketers:
- Doctors have to receive your messages in order to read them. If your target physicians aren't actually receiving your emails, you can't hope to engage them with your marketing messages or be sure that they read critical recall notices. All the time, money, and effort you put into developing effective email campaigns is essentially wasted.
- 99.5 percent deliverability reaches more doctors for the same cost. The math is simple. If you purchase 100 email addresses but your message is delivered only to 86 of them, you're paying for a lot of worthless addresses. On the other hand, if you use a physician email database that guarantees 99.5 percent delivery, you get more for your email marketing dollar on every campaign.
- High deliverability lets you expand your medical device user base. The traditional sales rep model is effective for building physician loyalty to your products, but it doesn't scale well. However, email lets you engage far more qualified prospects in the same amount of time. When your email messages reliably reach nearly all of the physicians on your list, you can be confident that you're connecting with many more valuable targets.
- Low deliverability means some doctors may not receive critical recall notices. When a serious problem with a medical device is discovered, patient health depends on alerting doctors as quickly as possible. Email is fast, but unless your database provides high deliverability, many physicians may not hear about the recall. Both patient safety and your brand will be at risk.
- High bounce rates may lead to blacklisting. Low delivery rates indicate that many of your emails are bouncing, often because the email address is invalid. If your campaigns consistently generate high bounce rates, ISPs may blacklist your IP address, which will prevent delivery of all of your email messages at least temporarily.
Deliverability is the most fundamental metric of email marketing, yet it's often overlooked.
The best way to ensure high deliverability rates is to work with an authenticated physician email list. Simply put, authentication is the process of verifying that the addresses on your list are accurate and belong to the intended recipients. In addition, a high-quality physician email database should be updated daily and include only physicians who have opted-in.
Keep these factors in mind to ensure your medical device email messages reach the doctors for whom they're intended.

According to the political compass, I'm Economic Left/Right: -8.38, Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.41, which places me somewhere a bit further out than the Greens, Nader, Nelson Mandela, Ghandi, and The Dalai Lama. Bush is in the opposite quadrant. Not surprising.
Bored. Did a few others during my jurisdictional studying.
SW- You would feel most at home in the Southwest region You advocate a large degree of personal freedom and a large degree of government control over the economy. Your neighbors include such folks as Jesse Jackson, Ralph Nader, Hillary Clinton, and Zack de la Rocha of Rage Against the Machine, and may refer to themselves as "liberals," "left-wing liberals," "civil libertarians," "democratic socialists," "egalitarians," or "anarcho-socialists."

• Strongly supportive of gay rights.
• Of the belief that immigration has been good for this country.
• Supportive of affirmative-action.

• Of the belief that basic health insurance is a right.
Socialist - You believe the free market can be beneficial, but that a large and powerful state is necessary to redistribute the wealth of the top classes to those of the bottom. You also think that basic utilities and trasportation should be publicly owned. Your historical role model is Eugene Debs.

If you're a die-hard football fan with big dreams of watching the Denver Broncos face off with the Carolina Panthers on the gridiron for Super Bowl 50, you may want to prepare yourself for some super-sized disappointment, unless you have some pretty deep pockets.
The average resale price for just a single ticket to the big game is nearly $6,000, according to the resale aggregation and research site TiqIQ. That's a whopping 42.29 percent higher than Super Bowl tickets cost at this time last year.
But last year tickets to the Super Bowl XLIX matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, climbed to more than $9,000 on average as game day drew nearer, TiqIQ noted.
Super Bowl 50 will be played at the San Francisco 49ers' Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Feb. 7.
Most Super Bowl tickets are only available by resale, MarketWatch reports. The NFL distributes tickets to the host city, the teams (which dole them out via a lottery system to season ticket holders), event sponsors, athletes and ticket brokers, "with most ending up on the secondary market," MarketWatch explains.
"For the regular fan trying to get to the Super Bowl, getting a ticket at face value is almost impossible," StubHub spokesman Cameron Papp told MarketWatch.
According to Denver's CBS4, the Broncos were allotted roughly 12,000 tickets for the big game, some of which were offered at face value to lottery-winning season ticket holders.
"Face value you're looking at $850-plus per ticket with some service fees," ticket seller Candy Lewis with A Lewis Tickets told CBS4.
Of course, scoring tickets is just one expense you'll rack up going to the Super Bowl. Lodging, airfare, food and local transportation can also add up quickly.
According to Priceline, flights into the Bay Area range from $313 to $531 and hotel prices vary from $65 to $899 per night in San Francisco and $95 to $1,499 per night in Silicon Valley. Priceline said Mineta San Jose International Airport is a cheaper flight option than San Francisco International or Oakland International.
If you do plan to go to the big game, travel experts say time is of the essence.
"If you're on the fence about going to the Super Bowl — now's the time to book," David Solomito, North American brand director for travel search engine Kayak, told NBC. "According to last year's data, flight prices increased by more than 35 percent once the two Super Bowl teams were determined. So book now to score the best deal."
After you've counted up all the game day expenses, it's pretty clear that unless you're rich, you'll be watching the game on television, like the vast majority of Americans. In that case, for a good viewing experience, check out "3 Best Bargain TVs Fit for Super Bowl 50."
If you want tips on how to save money when hosting a Super Bowl party, "10 Super Bowl Party Hacks to Save You Time and Money" may help.

Movavi Screen Capture Studio Review
Avangate Image 1 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This video capture software has three modules: Image 2 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: The welcome screen offers tutorials on how to use the software effectively. Image 3 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: Anyone can learn and use the interface with few to no problems.
Image 4 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: While you're recording, Movavi gives you a running tally of how long your video is and how large the video file will be. Image 5 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This video capture software lets you fine-tune the parameters of your recording before you start. Image 6 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This software offers one of the most comprehensive sets of video-editing tools out of the 10 products we reviewed.
Image 7 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: Import videos and audio files from your computer into your project. Image 8 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: Add transitions and effects to your video. Image 9 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This program has a library of title cards you can use in your project.
Image 10 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: The program offers a library of video filters to enhance the look and feel of your video. Image 11 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This video capture software also allows you to record audio separately from your screen recordings. Image 12 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This program gives you 13 different language options. Image 13 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: The video-editing portion is simplified so anyone, even novices, can use it.
Image 14 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: The video editor also offers more advanced features: You can adjust the color and audio, crop the frame, pan and zoom and more. Image 15 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: You can export your finished project into 11 different video formats. Image 16 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: This software allows you to optimize your project for smartphones and tablets. Image 17 of 17 Movavi Screen Capture image: You can optimize your videos for uploading to sites like YouTube and Facebook.
Movavi Screen Capture Studio claims the top spot in our review of the best video capture software. Its wide range of recording, editing and production tools make it the ideal screen recording program for both casual and professional users. You can use it to capture your entire desktop or a specific region, application or window. It's also great for recording streaming video, video games, video VoIP calls and more. It even records the screens of mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
This software's tools make it easy to create professional-quality videos. It's the easiest program to learn and use on our lineup. So whether you need to make a software tutorial, a presentation for work or a simple YouTube video, Movavi Screen Capture Studio should meet all your needs.
Movavi Screen Capture Studio is the only program in our lineup to have every recording and capture tool we look for in this category. You can use these capturing tools to record anything that happens on your computer, whether it's an application, game, a Skype call, streaming video — it does it all.
When you launch this screen recorder, the welcome screen has three options: If you're using Movavi Screen Capture Studio for the first time, tutorials pop up to help you get started. These tutorials are invaluable to the novice because they show you how to get the most out of your software. You can turn the pop-up off or simply skip the tutorials. When you select the Capture Screen option, you can choose to record your entire screen, a custom portion of it, or a specific window or application.
You also have the option to capture your system's audio so your audience can hear what's going on. Additionally, you can record your voice through a microphone.
You can even do both at the same time. The multiple options allow you to record exactly what you want from multiple sources, and this saves a lot of time and energy during the editing phase. The Record Audio feature is exactly what it sounds like: You can record your system's audio or sound through a microphone or other external sound device without any video attached.
This is useful for recording narrations and other voice work. Separately recorded audio clips also give you more control over the sound of more complex projects. It's also good for recording audio-only projects like podcasts or audiobooks. You can control what you're recording either through the onscreen interface or with hotkeys, which are keyboard shortcuts that allow you to quickly start, stop and pause recordings with a simple keystroke.
Hotkeys are quicker than using your mouse, plus you don't capture unnecessary cursor movement. This screen recorder offers the most comprehensive array of editing tools of all the programs on our side-by-side comparison chart.
If the tools were sold as a separate application, it would give the best video editing programs a run for their money. This is in stark contrast to most of the video recorder software we reviewed in which the editing features are limited to trimming unwanted footage and adding text — and some have no editing tools at all. Movavi Screen Capture Studio goes far beyond the basics. This software allows you to pan and zoom across your footage to highlight important aspects of your screen.
You can also fine-tune and enhance your audio, something only one other application on our lineup allows you to do. Additionally, you can add media that's on your computer to your project — outside video and sounds can easily be dropped in and edited just like the content you capture from your screen.
The editor also has a number of video and audio-enhancement tools. You can add effects, filters, transitions, titles, captions and more.
You also get some advanced tools, such as the chroma key green screen , slow motion and video stabilization. These features are generally found in stand-alone video-editing applications; none of the other programs we reviewed have these tools. The export options this video screen recorder offers stands heads and shoulders above the competition — no other application we evaluated even came close to offering the options that Movavi Screen Capture Studio does.
You can export your video to 11 of the most popular video formats. Only one other program offered more. There are multiple options to fine-tune technical aspects of your final video such as resolution, FPS frames per second and sample rate.
These controls are great for advanced users, and the default options will satisfy the needs of novice users. You can also optimize your video for playback on more than devices.
So if you know your video is going to be watched on an iPhone 6 Plus, simply select that option from the "For Apple Devices" tab. The program will automatically tailor your video's setting for that device. It also has options for Android and Windows devices as well gaming systems and other media players. No matter which device your video is displayed on, it's seen in the best quality possible. And the quality is excellent. During testing, we created 10 identical projects using each video capture application on our lineup.
Our video experts inspected the results, searching for imperfections in the video such as pixelation, motion blur and hesitation in the video.
In almost every case, they found noticeable flaws that detract from the viewing experience. But that was not the case with Movavi Screen Capture: Our experts found the video to be crisp, clear and nearly identical to the source material. Only one other program matched this level of quality.
Although you can optimize your video for YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook, there's no way to upload them from the program itself. This is an odd omission since the majority of the other video capture programs in our review offered this option.
We'd like to see Movavi add this feature in future editions because it would save regular video makers the time of manually uploading their videos.
Movavi makes this software extremely easy to learn and use, but there may be times you need some guidance. Aside from the above-mentioned in-application tutorials, Movavi offers a wide selection of how-to articles, video guides and a knowledge base on their website. Almost any question you have can be answered by consulting these resources. If you have a customer-support issue, you can contact Movavi through their online contact form and wait for them to get back to you through email.
They usually respond within 48 hours. If you can't wait that long, you can log into the website's live-chat service. You'll be connected with a customer service representative almost immediately.

Hi all,
So I think I must be nuts!
At the weekend I took part in a crazy event called "Tough Mudder" (Not sure if any of you have heard of it) which is basically a half-marathon with 22 terrifying obstacles, most of which involve fire, water, electricity and of course mud. I have no idea how I got through this, but I definitely learnt a lot about myself by taking part.... as I'm sure many anxiety and depression sufferers can confirm, one of the biggest issues is over-thinking and focusing on the negative. Now I'm 100% guilty of both of those, I overthink EVERYTHING, focus on the worst possible case scenario, and even when amazing things have happened I will always, ALWAYS focus on the negative no matter how big or small. But the way I got through this event was by NOT thinking - just doing! Looking back on it now I'm terrified by some of the stuff i actually did (I feel slightly panicky realising that I jumped from 20 ft into some deep water - my worst nightmare) but I know I got through it by just ignoring all the scary thoughts and doing it. It's probably easier said than done but I'm absolutely going to try and apply this to daily life now... And after what I put myself through, I figure what's the worst that can happen???
Hope everyone is doing well, just thought I'd try and share some positivity (and madness) with you all xxx

Pridey is a name of Anglo-Saxon origin. It was a name given to a crafty or cunning individual. Further research revealed that the name is derived from the Old English word prætig, which meant crafty. Some variants of the name have the suffix man appended to them; this seems to have occurred sometime in the late 15th or early 16th centuries.
The surname Pridey was first found in Staffordshire where they held a family seat from early times and their first records appeared on the early census rolls taken by the early Kings of Britain to determine the rate of taxation of their subjects.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Pridey research. Another 78 words (6 lines of text) covering the years 1192, 1st , 1612, 1676, 1661 and 1676 are included under the topic Early Pridey History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Before the last few hundred years, the English language had no fast system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations are commonly found in early Anglo-Saxon surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Pridey were recorded, including Prettyman, Pretyman, Pretty and others.
Another 26 words (2 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Pridey Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
To escape oppression and starvation at that time, many English families left for the "open frontiers" of the New World with all its perceived opportunities. In droves people migrated to the many British colonies, those in North America in particular, paying high rates for passages in cramped, unsafe ships. Although many of the settlers did not make the long passage alive, those who did see the shores of North America perceived great opportunities before them. Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Research into various historical records revealed some of first members of the Pridey family emigrate to North America: Edward Pretty settled in New England in 1654; Thomas and Penelope Pretty settled in Virginia in 1654; George Pretty settled in Virginia in 1607; thirteen years before the ".
