Imagine this: biking along with your young child perched safely between your arms. You sing a song, talk about the clouds in the sky, and practice counting to 10. Soon you’ve reached a hill and now you’re breathing too hard to talk, but your kiddo is happily ringing the bell on your handlebars and urging you on.
This is what a family bike ride is like with a front-mounted bike seat. Maybe you already know what this is like; maybe you’ve been using an iBert or Yepp Mini since your tyke was tiny, but now they’ve outgrown it. Fortunately, you don’t have to give up your bike seat days just yet. There are now several front-mounted bike seats on the market that allow you to bike with kids in the 2-5 age range. And one of the best is the Do Little Bike Seat.
The Do Little is a fantastic little seat out of New Zealand, where evidently, they know how to do family cycling the right way.
The Do Little bike seat performs well on pavement, dirt roads, and yes, even singletrack. The seat looks like a normal bike saddle and is comfortable for children even on long rides. Your little one is able to reach the handlebars, which is both fun and add to their stability. Their feet are able to rest on “stirrup” type foot pegs that help keep them out of the front wheel. (See my review of the TykeToter to see the issue we’ve had with open foot pegs).
Like any front-mounted seat, the position of the child does cause the adult rider to ride ever so slight bow-legged. We’ve found we don’t mind it at all on shorter rides, but on outings longer than 5 miles it can start to become a little uncomfortable. Other than that, the position of the child on the Do Little is comfortable and manageable for the parent.
Installation of the Do Little is straightforward and simple. The seat installs to the top tube of the adult’s frame with a few bolts. We like this setup because it allows you to adjust the position of your child on the bike, and because it doesn’t mount to the seatpost (like some other front mounted seats) you can use it with a carbon or dropper post. It also allows the seat to mount to just about any bicycle and doesn’t cause the compatibility issues that many seats have. It is suitable for use on cruiser bikes, road bikes, and even full-suspension mountain bikes. (The latter is what we’ve been using it on).
That said, there are a few things we don’t like about the installation. It takes a few minutes to install / uninstall which means once you’ve put it on your bicycle you probably don’t want to take it on and off very often. Secondly, there is the potential to scratch and/or damage your frame. I didn’t spend to much time worrying about this, but might think twice before I installed it to an expensive carbon frame.
The most important measure of a bike, in our opinion, is how much fun it is for parent and child. If the child is having fun, but the parent is uncomfortable or working too hard, then you won’t get out very often. If the setup works well for the adult but the child is bored or uncomfortable, they’ll learn to associate biking with unpleasant emotions.
Fortunately, the Do Little bike seat is enjoyable for all. Child and adult are free to chat and interact as they bike, making boredom impossible and offering a bonding experience.
The Do Little fits a wide age range which makes the seat a good investment if you’re buying it for a toddler. Do Little markets the seat as appropriate for ages 18 months to 7 years, but I would argue that it is probably best suited for kids 2.5 years to 6 years old. Kids need to have the good sense to hold onto the handlebars and keep their feet in the stirrups before introducing them to an open seat like this. On the other end of the spectrum, your child is likely to get to tall to use the Do Little before they are 7, BUT if you have a particularly small child it is possible. My small 5 year old fits comfortably on the seat with some room yet to grow.
Compared to nearly any alternative, the Do Little is incredibly lightweight. Trailers and trailer-cycles, in particular are heavy. Even compared to a good rear-mounted bike seat like the Yepp Maxi, you’ll find that the Do Little saves you some weight. This is nice because kids are already heavy to haul, you don’t want to add a lot of additional weight in the process.
The Do Little bike seat costs $160 NZD. As of the writing of this review, that converts to about $110 USD. That’s on par with other bike seats and much cheaper than a high-quality bicycle trailer or trailer-cycle. Considering that the seat is durable and can be used for several years before being outgrown, the Do Little is a smart buy.
In case the seat itself wasn’t nice enough, it also comes with a few thoughtful extras that we appreciated such as a carrying bag. Since the seat has several small parts (such as bolts) it is nice to have somewhere to store everything securely together when not in use. It also comes with a few extra bolts in case you were to lose one, and rubber shims to help as a work-around in case you have external cable housing on your top tube where the seat mounts.
Not sure the Do Little is the best choice for your family? Here’s how it stacks up against it’s closest competitors.
If you love front-mounted child seats, but your kiddo has outgrown their iBert or similar similar seat, then the Do Little Bike seat is the logical next step. It is safer than the TykeToter (in my opinion) and more affordable than the Mac Ride. Most importantly, it’s FUN.
Any chance you have a Do Little seat you want to sell? I am just getting into the open seat rider biking and the price, while better than a lot other out there, is still a little on the higher end than I wanted to spend. Since you all look like you may have outgrown yours, I would love to help take it off your hands!
Hi Tiffany, I’m afraid not! But, you could try joining and posting in our biking with kids facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/biking.with.kids/). It’s possible someone there might have one or something similar to sell. Good luck!

From 11th to 15th March 2013, Vienna hosted the 56th Session of the Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) – the United Nation’s annual forum on the issue of drugs, which is attended by 53 Member States. This year, IDPC was among the number of civil society groups in attendance and the IDPC Secretariat worked hard to deliver its established coordination and advocacy functions at the event. These annual meetings have long provided frustration for civil society, which has fought hard to have a voice in the debates. Broadly speaking, however, this year represented an improvement on previous events – a further sign that things are slowly changing within the United Nations drug control structures. IDPC will publish a more detailed account of the meeting in its annual CND Report on Proceedings in the coming weeks (click here to view the report from 2012). In the meantime, below is a brief summary of some of the main developments from Vienna.
As is customary at the CND, Member States spent most of the week agreeing a series of resolutions through negotiations in the ‘Committee of the Whole’, in closed meetings and through corridor conversations. The amended resolutions cover topics as broad as HIV, new psychoactive substances, alternative development, supply reduction in Afghanistan, GHB, and even the return of unused pain medications. There was notably less controversy than in previous years. Member States passed a strong resolution on HIV, hepatitis and tuberculosis which endorses the UN Technical Guidance on HIV and the WHO Guidance on Hepatitis Prevention for people who inject drugs. Resolution 13 also recommended that CND should “play its leading role in the preparatory process” for the 2016 UN General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on drugs, while also “Welcoming the important role played by civil society… and stressing the relevance of the contributions of civil society”.
Ann Fordham (IDPC Executive Director) spoke about the 2016 UNGASS and reminded Member States that “We cannot afford to miss the opportunity to take stock of the negative consequences of the current system and to ensure that the drug control treaties remain ‘fit-for-purpose’ in the coming decades”.
Mike Trace (Chair of the IDPC Steering Group) spoke about the scheduling process and the blurred roles of WHO and the International Narcotics Control Board (INCB).
Eliot Albers (Director of the International Network of People who Use Drugs) endorsed the new ‘Support. Don't Punish.’ campaign – calling for all Member States to implement harm reduction measures rather than treating people who use drugs as criminals.
Maria Phelan (Harm Reduction International) spoke about the need for more harm reduction funding and for more supportive legal and policy environments (again, endorsing the ‘Support. Don't Punish.’ campaign).
For a full list of NGO statements at CND, please click here.
During the week, the IDPC Secretariat worked hard to organise private meetings with a host of government delegations to discuss specific issues and future partnerships. These included meetings with officials from Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, China, Ecuador, France, Guatemala, Indonesia, Kenya, Malaysia, New Zealand, Uruguay, USA, Viet Nam and the African Union – as well as conversations with numerous other country delegations.
As in previous years, IDPC coordinated a series of official side-events and lunchtime events for Member States and civil society partners. These were all well attended – with between 50 and 90 participants at each one – and allowed for further engagement of government officials. The topic covered included cannabis regulation, modernising drug law enforcement, drug policy in Africa, drug policy in Latin America, and decriminalisation. These sessions were organised alongside a number of IDPC’s partners and included speakers from government and civil society. There was also a full programme of other side events organised by member states, international organisations, IDPC members and others – including the Eurasian Harm Reduction Network (EHRN) and the Harm Reduction Coalition. For a fuller account of these events, please click here.
The overall participation of civil society at this year’s CND was very strong, with around 160 representatives present. On Sunday 10th March, IDPC hosted a strategic meeting for members, followed by an open CND orientation meeting and reception – at which around 40 participants strategized for the week ahead. At the same time, the Vienna NGO Committee produced their annual Guide to CND, and coordinated a briefing on Monday morning and an ‘Informal Civil Society Hearing’ (click here for more information).
The UNODC Executive Director, Yury Fedotov, held a constructive dialogue with civil society groups, answering questions from IDPC among others. He reiterated that the UN drug conventions support the provision of measures of treatment, rehabilitation and reintegration as alternatives to punishment, and explicitly supported human rights and harm reduction as core parts of UNODC’s work.
By contrast, the dialogue with Raymond Yans, President of the INCB, was much less constructive. In an often derogatory tone, Mr Yans stated that “harm reduction hasn’t been accepted by the CND”, argued that “the INCB doesn’t have a mandate to give advice on human rights”, and repeated the Board’s questioning of cannabis policy in the Netherlands and safe drug consumption facilities in Canada.
IDPC and Youth RISE ran the CND Blog throughout the meeting in both English and Spanish – providing a thorough account of each speech, intervention and session. The Blog was viewed by more than 1,100 people every day from 77 countries around the world – including government officials inside of the building, and civil society partners who were unable to attend.

Everyone knows calcium is critically important for healthy bones and teeth, but did you know it also plays important roles in stabilizing essential proteins, regulating the contraction and relaxation of muscles, and managing the constriction and relaxation of blood vessels? IIn fact, calcium levels are so important, even a small decline in the calcium levels in the body’s blood and tissues causes the release of a hormone that simultaneously limits calcium’s elimination through urine, stimulates its release from bone tissue, and facilitates its absorption during digestion(Higdon, Drake, Delage, & Weaver, 2001).
In the body, almost all of the calcium you consume is stored in the bones and teeth. The remainder circulates through the blood to other tissues and organs where it performs essential tasks ranging from those mentioned above to the tasks of nerve and cell signaling (National Institutes of Health [NIH], 2013a).
Adult men and women from 19 to 50 years of age and kids from four to eight years of age need about 1,000 mg of calcium each day. From 51 to 70 years of age, men need about 1,000 mg a day while women need a little more – about 1,300 mg per day – to help prevent osteoporosis during menopause. Both men and women over 70 years of age need about 1,200 mg per day. Adolescents and teens from nine to 18 years of age need about 1,300 mg of calcium every day to support healthy bone development (NIH, 2013b).
One of the biggest risks of not getting enough calcium is the development of osteopenia (low bone mineral density) or the more serious condition, osteoporosis, both of which can significantly increase the risk of fractures (NIH, 2013b). Some studies have also indicated that calcium may help reduce the risks of certain cancers and may help provide some protection against heart disease. Other symptoms associated with low levels of calcium include numbness and tingling in the fingers, heart arrhythmias and even convulsions (NIH, 2013a).
Although many foods contain calcium, a report from the federal government (2009) found most people in the U.S. - about two-thirds – aren't getting nearly the amount they need to maintain optimal health. Deficiencies were greatest among girls and young women ages 14 to 50 years of age, although both genders appear to be consuming far less calcium than recommended on a daily basis (Bailey et al., 2010).
Although anyone can develop calcium deficiency, some people are more likely to consume less calcium than others. People who are lactose intolerant or sensitive to milk and milk products, women who are in menopause, and younger women who have unusually low levels of circulating estrogen are at special risk for calcium deficiency. Vegetarians and vegans are also more likely to have low levels of calcium compared to those who eat meat.
Milk and other dairy products are good sources of calcium, but if you're lactose intolerant or you simply don't like milk or milk products, don't despair: there are plenty of other non-dairy sources of the mineral that can help keep your calcium at optimal levels. Sardines and canned salmon, both with their bones retained, are excellent sources of calcium, and turnip greens, kale and Chinese cabbage are good vegan sources. Fortified bread and cereal products and fortified orange juice can also help boost your daily intake (NIH, 2013b).
Of course, if you're looking for an easy way to boost calcium levels, nuts and seeds are ideal. In fact, just one cup of almonds has about 380 mg of calcium – more than a cup of milk, which has just under 300 mg. A cup of Brazil nuts has about 213 mg of calcium, and a cup of pili nuts has 174 mg. Seeds are even more potent sources of calcium. Just a tablespoon of sesame seeds has 88 mg of calcium – try sprinkling some on a salad for a healthy crunch (Kandil, 2012).
Adding foods rich in vitamin D helps increase absorption of calcium in the digestive tract so you can get the most from the calcium-rich food you eat. On the other hand, oxalic acid and phytic acid found in vegetables, beans and whole grains can decrease calcium absorption, which is another reason why vegetarians and vegans are at greater risk for calcium deficiency.
The federal government's Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends people get nutrients from food sources rather than relying on supplements (Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, n.d.). Since nuts and seeds are great sources of not only calcium but other important minerals as well, adding them to your regular diet is an ideal way to supplement your nutritional needs naturally. For some ideas on how to add these foods to your regular regimen, check out the sections below for calcium-rich recipes and snack recommendations from our Health Nut and Registered Dietitian!

A delectable dinner made with more calcium than your average meal, this vegan casserole is ideal for fitting that elusive mineral into your daily diet!
When it comes to adding in calcium-rich foods, you most likely think of items like: milk, yogurt, and cheese as some of go-to sources. While dairy foods are rich in calcium, there are also plenty of other foods that deliver calcium to boost your daily intake.
On food labels, the amount of calcium in the food is referenced by the % Daily Value (DV), which is a set of recommendations for key nutrients based on a 2,000 calorie daily diet, the % DV for calcium is 1000 milligrams, so if a food has 18% of the DV that would have about 180 milligrams of calcium per serving. Similarly, 30% of the DV is 3000 milligrams of calcium per serving. Remember, if you have two servings, all of the nutrition fact data doubles!
Not only do these savory snacks supply a veritable 18% of the DV for calcium in each serving, but they also offer an abundance of other essential nutrients, including: vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. Try tossing some into a salad with quinoa and spinach or serve up chopped sun dried tomatoes with a slice of feta cheese on crackers, like our Vegan “Cheese” Dill Crackers.
These delectable dried fruit pieces provide an equally impressive helping of nutrients. With about 9% of the DV for calcium per ounce and also provides 100% the DV for vitamin C! Savor these delicious chewy treats and the nearly 3 grams of protein each ounce provides to help you power through the work day.

Cook some of these luscious legumes at the beginning of the week and add them to salads or soups for an impressive helping of fiber with 15 grams in each serving. A standard serving also supplies 17% of the DV for calcium and 9 grams of protein to support your nutritional needs.
This superb superfood supplies a surplus of the nutrients you need most in every healthful serving. Simply add a scoop of seeds to your salads, smoothies, baked goods, or stir fries to enjoy the incredible 11 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, 8 grams of unsaturated fat, and 180 milligrams (18% of the DV) of calcium included in every 28-gram serving.
This crunchy carb is a great way to start the day. A gluten-free cereal, this protein-rich snack can be eaten on the go for an easy means of adding fiber, calcium, and iron to your diet.

Carob makes a great snack on the go with dried pods that are rich in fiber to support a healthy digestive tract. The snack also supplies some natural sugars for energy and a modest offering of the minerals many diets need more of: calcium and iron.
These fruits may look funny- but their flavor is even more rich and succulent than that of standard strawberries. Each was soaked in apple juice to add a secondary sweetness and to produce a final snack that also offers vitamins and minerals.

adult men and women from 19 to 50 years of age and kids from four to eight years of age need about 1,000 mg of calcium each day. from 51 to 70 years of age, men need about 1,000 mg a day while women need a little more – about 1,300 mg per day – to help prevent osteoporosis during menopause. both men and women over 70 years of age need about 1,200 mg per day. adolescents and teens from nine to 18 years of age need about 1,300 mg of calcium every day to support healthy bone development (nih, 2013b).
one of the biggest risks of not getting enough calcium is the development of osteopenia (low bone mineral density) or the more serious condition, osteoporosis, both of which can significantly increase the risk of fractures (nih, 2013b). some studies have also indicated that calcium may help reduce the risks of certain cancers and may help provide some protection against heart disease. other symptoms associated with low levels of calcium include numbness and tingling in the fingers, heart arrhythmias and even convulsions (nih, 2013a).
although many foods contain calcium, a report from the federal government (2009) found most people in the u.s. - about two-thirds – aren't getting nearly the amount they need to maintain optimal health. deficiencies were greatest among girls and young women ages 14 to 50 years of age, although both genders appear to be consuming far less calcium than recommended on a daily basis (bailey et al., 2010).
although anyone can develop calcium deficiency, some people are more likely to consume less calcium than others. people who are lactose intolerant or sensitive to milk and milk products, women who are in menopause, and younger women who have unusually low levels of circulating estrogen are at special risk for calcium deficiency. vegetarians and vegans are also more likely to have low levels of calcium compared to those who eat meat.
milk and other dairy products are good sources of calcium, but if you're lactose intolerant or you simply don't like milk or milk products, don't despair: there are plenty of other non-dairy sources of the mineral that can help keep your calcium at optimal levels. sardines and canned salmon, both with their bones retained, are excellent sources of calcium, and turnip greens, kale and chinese cabbage are good vegan sources. fortified bread and cereal products and fortified orange juice can also help boost your daily intake (nih, 2013b).
of course, if you're looking for an easy way to boost calcium levels, nuts and seeds are ideal. in fact, just one cup of almonds has about 380 mg of calcium – more than a cup of milk, which has just under 300 mg. a cup of brazil nuts has about 213 mg of calcium, and a cup of pili nuts has 174 mg. seeds are even more potent sources of calcium. just a tablespoon of sesame seeds has 88 mg of calcium – try sprinkling some on a salad for a healthy crunch (kandil, 2012).
adding foods rich in vitamin d helps increase absorption of calcium in the digestive tract so you can get the most from the calcium-rich food you eat. on the other hand, oxalic acid and phytic acid found in vegetables, beans and whole grains can decrease calcium absorption, which is another reason why vegetarians and vegans are at greater risk for calcium deficiency.
the federal government's dietary guidelines for americans recommends people get nutrients from food sources rather than relying on supplements (office of disease prevention and health promotion, n.d.). since nuts and seeds are great sources of not only calcium but other important minerals as well, adding them to your regular diet is an ideal way to supplement your nutritional needs naturally. for some ideas on how to add these foods to your regular regimen, check out the sections below for calcium-rich recipes and snack recommendations from our health nut and registered dietitian!
create your own confections to cull your cravings for the sweet or savory with these recipes for superbly scrumptious, calcium-laden snacks and meals.
a true powerhouse of calcium, our detox smoothie supplies a whopping 74% of the daily value (dv) for calcium! a superb source for anyone, particularly those subscribing to a vegan diet.
another simple smoothie recipe, this delectable drink offers a healthy helping of calcium with 47% of the dv for the mineral. treat yourself to this sweet savor today!
it can be surprisingly difficult to meet your dietary needs when it comes to calcium, but this delectable salad supplies a hearty helping of the mineral with an abundance of other nutrients.
a delectable dinner made with more calcium than your average meal, this vegan casserole is ideal for fitting that elusive mineral into your daily diet!
when it comes to adding in calcium-rich foods, you most likely think of items like: milk, yogurt, and cheese as some of go-to sources. while dairy foods are rich in calcium, there are also plenty of other foods that deliver calcium to boost your daily intake.
on food labels, the amount of calcium in the food is referenced by the % daily value (dv), which is a set of recommendations for key nutrients based on a 2,000 calorie daily diet, the % dv for calcium is 1000 milligrams, so if a food has 18% of the dv that would have about 180 milligrams of calcium per serving. similarly, 30% of the dv is 3000 milligrams of calcium per serving. remember, if you have two servings, all of the nutrition fact data doubles!
not only do these savory snacks supply a veritable 18% of the dv for calcium in each serving, but they also offer an abundance of other essential nutrients, including: vitamin a, vitamin c, and potassium. try tossing some into a salad with quinoa and spinach or serve up chopped sun dried tomatoes with a slice of feta cheese on crackers, like our vegan “cheese” dill crackers.
these delectable dried fruit pieces provide an equally impressive helping of nutrients. with about 9% of the dv for calcium per ounce and also provides 100% the dv for vitamin c! savor these delicious chewy treats and the nearly 3 grams of protein each ounce provides to help you power through the work day.
this soft snack provides an enticing texture and neutral flavor that can be enjoyed on its own or easily added to an omelet for a quick fix of calcium, iron, vitamin a and vitamin c.
cook some of these luscious legumes at the beginning of the week and add them to salads or soups for an impressive helping of fiber with 15 grams in each serving. a standard serving also supplies 17% of the dv for calcium and 9 grams of protein to support your nutritional needs.
this superb superfood supplies a surplus of the nutrients you need most in every healthful serving. simply add a scoop of seeds to your salads, smoothies, baked goods, or stir fries to enjoy the incredible 11 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, 8 grams of unsaturated fat, and 180 milligrams (18% of the dv) of calcium included in every 28-gram serving.
this crunchy carb is a great way to start the day. a gluten-free cereal, this protein-rich snack can be eaten on the go for an easy means of adding fiber, calcium, and iron to your diet.
these fabulous fruits supply a surprisingly saturated source of natural sugars to give you a burst of energy that is ideal for work or school. the berries also offer complex carbs and an impressive array of nutrients in each 40-gram serving, including: 5 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, 190% of the dv for vitamin c, 10% of the dv for calcium and 30% of the dv for iron.
carob makes a great snack on the go with dried pods that are rich in fiber to support a healthy digestive tract. the snack also supplies some natural sugars for energy and a modest offering of the minerals many diets need more of: calcium and iron.
these fruits may look funny- but their flavor is even more rich and succulent than that of standard strawberries. each was soaked in apple juice to add a secondary sweetness and to produce a final snack that also offers vitamins and minerals.

Florida State treated Division I-AA underdog Western Carolina with compassion Saturday night, sticking to a bare-bones game plan that netted a 50-10 homecoming victory.
A festive crowd of 52,778 watched on a cool, clear night. They let go with one of their largest cheers before the game when former FSU player Burt Reynolds presented FSU trainer Don Fauls with a new Ford station wagon.
Fauls, with FSU for 28 years, is retiring.
So mismatched were the teams that FSU probably could have scored as many points as it wanted. The easy victory was so expected that it did little to enchance FSU's season. It did, however, keep the Seminoles in line for a bowl invitation, probably the Gator Bowl.
Tommy Gay, past president of the Gator Bowl selection committee, watched the Seminoles (8-2) on Saturday and was all but ready to give them his vote.
"We think they are our No. 1 choice," he said. "Of course, that could change, but FSU would be a very attractive team for us."
The Gator Bowl, to be played on Dec. 30 and nationally televised by ABC, is advertising a $900,000 payoff for each team.
That much money is a big consideration for FSU. It needs a big payday to help wipe out a projected deficit of $1.5 million. And the proximity of the Gator Bowl, played in Jacksonville, would allow FSU to travel cheaply to the game and thus bring home more money.
The Seminoles' opponent would come from a list that includes the third- place finisher in the Big Ten, either Ohio State or Michigan, along with Air Force and Oklahoma State.
Bowl invitations will be extended Saturday.
FSU, favored by some five touchdowns over Western Carolina, was superior in every category. The Catamounts had a scrappy quarterback in Kenny Edwards, but he couldn't carry the load. Edwards, constantly chased, completed nine of 24 passes for 87 yards.
"I'd like to have a game like this every week," FSU Coach Bobby Bowden said. "It was tough to get ready, but I am just glad I was coaching our team and not on the other side coaching against us. We were playing against a team that we were much bigger and stronger than. We just ran it in the middle all night."
FSU was led by tailbacks Tony Smith (13 carries, 114 yards) and Keith Ross (15-103), who scored two touchdowns. Quarterback Chip Ferguson completed seven of 18 passes for 182 yards and a touchdown. Hassan Jones caught four passes for 103 yards and a touchdown.
The Seminoles were merciful in that they, for the most part, chose simple, time-consuming plays.
Western Carolina (3-6-1) offered few challenges.
The Seminoles scored on their first possession when Derek Schmidt kicked a 36-yard field goal. They built a 19-0 halftime lead and coasted from there.
For FSU, the game was little more than a necessary chore before turning full attention to a Nov. 30 date with the University of Florida in Gainesville.
The Seminoles made sure they revealed no secrets Saturday. After sticking with inside running plays in the first half, Bowden substituted freely in the second half. The result was an uninspiring, sometimes ragged game.
Homecoming games are supposed to feature lopsided victories by the home team, though, and FSU assured itself of success when it scheduled the Catamounts. Usually, Western Carolina is at least competitive on its own level, but this year it has struggled against even Division I-AA teams.
"It has been a tough year, and tonight sort of culminated everything for us," Western Carolina Coach Bob Waters said. "Florida State is a tremendous football team, and I said before the game that they might be the best we've ever played. Now I'm sure they're the best we've played."

Relational psychoanalysis is a school of psychoanalysis in the United States that emphasizes the role of real and imagined relationships with others in mental disorder and psychotherapy. 'Relational psychoanalysis is a relatively new and evolving school of psychoanalytic thought considered by its founders to represent a "paradigm shift" in psychoanalysis'.
Relational psychoanalysis began in the 1980s as an attempt to integrate interpersonal psychoanalysis's emphasis on the detailed exploration of interpersonal interactions with British object relations theory's ideas about the psychological importance of internalized relationships with other people. Relationalists argue that personality emerges from the matrix of early formative relationships with parents and other figures. Philosophically, relational psychoanalysis is closely allied with social constructionism.
An important difference between relational theory and traditional psychoanalytic thought is in its theory of motivation, which would 'assign primary importance to real interpersonal relations, rather than to instinctual drives'.[full citation needed] Freudian theory, with a few exceptions, proposes that human beings are motivated by sexual and aggressive drives. These drives are biologically rooted and innate. They are ultimately not shaped by experience.
Relationalists, on the other hand, argue that the primary motivation of the psyche is to be in relationships with others. As a consequence early relationships, usually with primary caregivers, shape one's expectations about the way in which one's needs are met. Therefore, desires and urges cannot be separated from the relational contexts in which they arise. This does not mean that motivation is determined by the environment (as in behaviorism), but that motivation is determined by the systemic interaction of a person and his or her relational world. Individuals attempt to re-create these early learned relationships in ongoing relationships that may have little or nothing to do with those early relationships. This re-creation of relational patterns serves to satisfy the individuals' needs in a way that conforms with what they learned as infants. This re-creation is called an enactment.
When treating patients, relational psychoanalysts stress a mixture of waiting, and authentic spontaneity. Some relationally oriented psychoanalysts eschew the traditional Freudian emphasis on interpretation and free association, instead emphazing the importance of creating a lively, genuine relationship with the patient. However, many others place a great deal of importance on the Winnicottian concept of "holding" and are far more restrained in their approach, generally giving weight to well formulated interpretations made at what seems to be the proper time. Overall, relational analysts feel that psychotherapy works best when the therapist focuses on establishing a healing relationship with the patient, in addition to focusing on facilitating insight. They believe that in doing so, therapists break patients out of the repetitive patterns of relating to others that they believe maintain psychopathology. Noteworthy too is 'the emphasis relational psychoanalysis places on the mutual construction of meaning in the analytic relationship'.
Stephen A. Mitchell has been described as the "most influential relational psychoanalyst".[full citation needed] His 1983 book, co-written with Jay R. Greenberg and called Object Relations in Psychoanalytic Theory is considered to be the first major work of relational psychoanalysis. Prior work especially by Sabina Spielrein in the 1910s to 1930s is often cited, especially by Adrienne Harris and others who connect feminism with the field, but as part of the prior Freud/Jung/Spielrein tradition.
Psychoanalyst and philosopher Jon Mills has offered a number of substantial criticisms of the relational movement. Mills evidently thinks this "paradigm shift" to relational psychoanalysis is not exclusively due to theoretical differences with classical psychoanalysis but also arises from a certain group mentality and set of interests: "Relational psychoanalysis is an American phenomenon, with a politically powerful and advantageous group of members advocating for conceptual and technical reform" from a professional psychologist group perspective: "most identified relational analysts are psychologists, as are the founding professionals associated with initiating the relational movement".
Psychoanalyst and historian Henry Zvi Lothane has also criticized some of the central ideas of relational psychoanalysis, from both historical and psychoanalytic perspectives. Historically, Lothane believes relational theorists overstate the non-relational aspects of Freud as ignore its relational aspects. Lothane maintains that, though Freud's theory of disorder is "monadic," i.e. focused more or less exclusively on the individual, Freud's psychoanalytic method and theory of clinical practice is consistently dyadic or relational. From a theoretical perspective, Lothane has criticized the term "relational" in favor of Harry Stack Sullivan's term "interpersonal". Lothane developed his concepts of "reciprocal free association" as well as "dramatology" as ways of understanding the interpersonal or relational dimension of psychoanalysis.

relationalists, on the other hand, argue that the primary motivation of the psyche is to be in relationships with others. as a consequence early relationships, usually with primary caregivers, shape one's expectations about the way in which one's needs are met. therefore, desires and urges cannot be separated from the relational contexts in which they arise. this does not mean that motivation is determined by the environment (as in behaviorism), but that motivation is determined by the systemic interaction of a person and his or her relational world. individuals attempt to re-create these early learned relationships in ongoing relationships that may have little or nothing to do with those early relationships. this re-creation of relational patterns serves to satisfy the individuals' needs in a way that conforms with what they learned as infants. this re-creation is called an enactment.
when treating patients, relational psychoanalysts stress a mixture of waiting, and authentic spontaneity. some relationally oriented psychoanalysts eschew the traditional freudian emphasis on interpretation and free association, instead emphazing the importance of creating a lively, genuine relationship with the patient. however, many others place a great deal of importance on the winnicottian concept of "holding" and are far more restrained in their approach, generally giving weight to well formulated interpretations made at what seems to be the proper time. overall, relational analysts feel that psychotherapy works best when the therapist focuses on establishing a healing relationship with the patient, in addition to focusing on facilitating insight. they believe that in doing so, therapists break patients out of the repetitive patterns of relating to others that they believe maintain psychopathology. noteworthy too is 'the emphasis relational psychoanalysis places on the mutual construction of meaning in the analytic relationship'.
stephen a. mitchell has been described as the "most influential relational psychoanalyst".[full citation needed] his 1983 book, co-written with jay r. greenberg and called object relations in psychoanalytic theory is considered to be the first major work of relational psychoanalysis. prior work especially by sabina spielrein in the 1910s to 1930s is often cited, especially by adrienne harris and others who connect feminism with the field, but as part of the prior freud/jung/spielrein tradition.
psychoanalyst and philosopher jon mills has offered a number of substantial criticisms of the relational movement. mills evidently thinks this "paradigm shift" to relational psychoanalysis is not exclusively due to theoretical differences with classical psychoanalysis but also arises from a certain group mentality and set of interests: "relational psychoanalysis is an american phenomenon, with a politically powerful and advantageous group of members advocating for conceptual and technical reform" from a professional psychologist group perspective: "most identified relational analysts are psychologists, as are the founding professionals associated with initiating the relational movement".
psychoanalyst and historian henry zvi lothane has also criticized some of the central ideas of relational psychoanalysis, from both historical and psychoanalytic perspectives. historically, lothane believes relational theorists overstate the non-relational aspects of freud as ignore its relational aspects. lothane maintains that, though freud's theory of disorder is "monadic," i.e. focused more or less exclusively on the individual, freud's psychoanalytic method and theory of clinical practice is consistently dyadic or relational. from a theoretical perspective, lothane has criticized the term "relational" in favor of harry stack sullivan's term "interpersonal". lothane developed his concepts of "reciprocal free association" as well as "dramatology" as ways of understanding the interpersonal or relational dimension of psychoanalysis.

African low-cost carrier Fastjet to start flying on 29 November 2012...tickets sell started.
It’s finally revealed that new African low-cost carrier Fastjet will launch operations on 29 November 2012.
The company has started selling tickets on its inaugural flight with tickets from 32,000 TSh ($20) one-way, excluding taxes & charges.
Tickets can be purchased through travel agents and fastjet's own sales desk, call centre and offices. Online booking is available through Fastjet's new web site www.fastjet.com using credit/debit cards, as well as by mobile phone.
The airline’s IATA code is “FN”.
Well I have searched Reliance Travels UK but could not find any airline with this name. I guess they have not started to sell their tickets online. Anyways, I would advise them to start selling their tickets on internet and enjoy sales in Europe. They need to work really hard so many companies are already offering cheap flights to Dar es Salaam and many destinations in Africa.

6 Minimalist Habits to Reduce Your Waste!
Reducing your waste is all about changing the way you lead your life, ditching old habits and replacing them with better ones is a great place to start. Minimalism intersects nicely with Low Impact living, as it encourages us to consume less and far more consciously. So taking a closer look at our habits we are able to reevaluate which ones are serving us well, and those that are simply allowing us to continue wasting at an alarming rate.
So much food goes to waste because she shove it to the back of our cupboards and we forget about it. Or we buy ingredients for a special recipe that we only use once. So what we like to do every month is to go through and declutter them. Go through the cupboard and see what has been in there for a while and try and research some recipes that may help us beat the clutter and prevent food from going to waste. By doing this on a monthly basis it allows you to limit the amount of food build up in your cupboards, and encourages you to only repurchase food you know you will eat.
So again along the food waste lines, I go through my freezer at least once a month just to make sure that food isn't being forgotten. A helpful tip is to write on the lid of your container the date on which you place it in the freezer. This helps you to keep track of how longs have been sitting in there, and also gives you a clear indiction of what is and isn't getting eaten.
For me this really adds value to your wardrobe, and prevents you from buying new clothes if you do genuinely value what you already have. I like to go through my wardrobe and make sure, that yes i’m still wearing these things, and yes I still love these things. And if not, I’m going to donate them, recycle them or find a way to give them to someone else. If i’m not valuing those items of clothing, then I am more likely to let them sit in my cupboard and instead go and buy something new, because I feel this sense that I have nothing to wear and I need to get acquire a different item. If I do value my items, then I am far less likely to go and buy something new, and so by taking stock of your wardrobe monthly you can ensure you always love everything you have.
I don’t buy things that often so when I do I like to question whether I really need this item. This helps to prevent bringing clutter into my home, but it also prevents me from buying and wasting a new item that I don’t really need. I ask myself these questions: Do I really need this item? Is there an actual necessity for me to buy this new item? How much value will this item truly bring into my life? How much worse off would I be if I didn’t buy this item? By asking myself these questions, it really helps to prevent me from buying impulse purchases and also just minimising my waste and decluttering my home, because I am not bringing in items that will be undervalued.
I am a plant based eater and tend to eat a lot of legumes, and fresh fruits and vegetables. Due to simplifying and minimising my eating habits it means it has become much easier to buy all the foods I want to eat, unpackaged. Living in London it is of course far easier to get unpackaged foods, but there used to be a lot of foods that I ate which came in packaging. Simplifying my meals enabled me to change my taste buds and essentially enjoy simple foods far more as I haven’t bombarded them with a crazy amount of additional flavourings. Therefore this change has enabled me to prevent so much packaging from entering my home, and therefore reducing my waste.
This may sound a bit weird but for me personally it has helped dramatically to reduce my waste. I used to be a terrible shopaholic and would have the apps for several fast fashion brands and Amazon etc on my phone, which caused me to buy impulse items and many things that I didn’t need. By going through my phone and deleting these apps, it took away both the temptation to buy and also the trigger to mindlessly scroll through things I didn’t even know I wanted. By removing the apps you are reducing your desire for things because you are not reminded of the possibilities every time you look at your phone. This in turn helps you to reduce your waste as you will be lowering your impact by not purchasing unnecessary new items.
