New to yoga and don't know the difference between Vinyasa, Hatha or Iyengar? We know, it's confusing. So let's break it down to help you choose which is right.
If you're new to the yoga world, you may have already noticed there are different styles to choose from. Although all practices are based around the same core elements – moving through structured poses combined with breath awareness and meditation – yoga is certainly not a one-size-fits-all practice.
Many people take up yoga to improve their health and fitness, but stick with it because of the stress-relieving benefits. That said, it's important to take the time to explore which type will benefit your lifestyle, personality and health goals right from the get go.
"I recommend trying out a few different classes or styles at varying studios to figure out which type you like," suggests yoga instructor and health coach, Lee Holmes.
Here are three of the most popular practices to choose from.
When it comes to complete mind and body relaxation, Hatha yoga is your go-to class.
"Hatha Yoga provides the tools to improve your life, recover from illness, reduce stress and anxiety and overcome daily obstacles to find a state of calmness and peace," says Holmes.
Classified as a mind-body exercise – just like Tai Chi and Pilates – Hatha is a gentle type of yoga and develops mental focus, providing a greater connection between mind, body and spirit.
"Classes create a highly transformative, healing and inspirational environment, which includes healing and energising movements to strengthen the muscles and provide mobility and balance throughout the body," says Holmes.
But Hatha isn't the only stress-busting class you can try. In general, practicing yoga has been found to help with anxiety and levels of stress hormones in the body.
Most people don't associate yoga with a high-intensity workout, but it can be hard work – especially when it comes to the practice of Vinyasa.
The idea behind this style is to combine breathing techniques – to calm the mind – and maintain a constant flow of movement via what are known as asanas or postures. Which is where the workout comes in!
These poses have been found to improve muscle strength, body composition and endurance just as much as resistance training – so you can expect to get your heart rate up. It also does great things for your cardiovascular system, encouraging oxygen to flow through the blood, loosening muscles and releasing toxins.
While it's still a relaxing experience, the focus is on strength for both body and mind.
If you're one of the many people plagued by neck and back pain, Iyengar classes may be the perfect way to realign yourself – both physically and mentally. It's all about alignment of the muscles that help with posture and focuses on aligning the Pranayama – breath control – and Asana – the physical practice of yoga poses – with precision.
While these poses can be demanding in effort and require attention to detail to ensure each is carried out correctly, beginners shouldn't be discouraged. It's not uncommon – in fact it's encouraged – to use props and tools to assist in controlling each pose to get it just right.
It's worth checking with your doctor before embarking on a new exercise program, especially if you suffer from any aches or pains or any health condition.
One of the main reasons yoga is so popular is that it can easily be done anywhere – especially once you are familiar with the moves and have your downward dog down pat.
So if you're feeling stressed or out of balance, here are three easy exercises you can do anywhere, anytime.
Don't forget - you don't have to be an expert yogi to get the benefits of yoga, start slowly and enjoy the process.
- From standing, step your feet out wide.
- Turn your right foot out by 90 degrees. Turn your left toes in slightly towards the right foot.
- Reach your right arm out to the side, over your right leg, and engage your right thigh.
- Drop your right hand down onto your shin, ankle or the floor on the inside or outside the right foot – whichever feels most comfortable for you.
- Stack your left shoulder on top of the right one as you open your chest, reaching the left fingertips towards the ceiling.
- Look up toward your left fingertips (if you can).
- Hold for five breaths.
- Lie on your belly with your feet together.
- Place your hands near your shoulders, palms flat on the floor and lift your upper body off the mat.
- Keep your pubic bone on the mat and make sure your shoulders are down and away from your ears.
- Roll your shoulders back and lift the chest higher, while keeping the lower ribs on the floor.
- Hold for five breaths then release.
- Start in a kneeling position.
- Drop your buttocks toward your heels as you stretch the rest of your body down and forward.
- Rest your stomach on top of your thighs and your forehead on the mat.
- Stretch your arms forward, then as your forehead rests on the floor, bring your arms around and to your sides, palms facing upward.
- Hold for 10 breaths.


JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — Paul Menard has won the pole for the NASCAR Cup Series race at Chicagoland Speedway.
It's the second career pole for Menard, who has just one top-five finish this season. He also qualified first for a race at Daytona almost exactly 10 years ago.
Ryan Blaney joined Menard on the front row for Sunday's race. Blaney was second at 179.880 mph in his No. 12 Team Penske Ford.
Chase Elliott, Kurt Busch and Clint Bowyer rounded out the top five.
The cars for Martin Truex Jr., Jimmie Johnson, Denny Hamlin and Chris Buescher failed inspection. They had their qualifying times disallowed and will start at the back of the field.


Planet Fitness has announced a strategic partnership with Kohl's to launch 10 Planet Fitness stores adjacent to select Kohl's locations.
The deal will see the fitness center franchisor leverage about 20,000-25,000 square feet adjacent to the retailer across the country throughout the year. Planet Fitness opened 230 stores in 2018 and has more than 1,700 stores across 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Panama and Mexico.

Five year plan, turns into reality.
Our first visit to the beautiful Turks and Caicos Island was in 2007. Right then and there, we knew that it was the most magical place we have ever seen and will ever see. As we came back year after year, it felt more special with each visit. It felt like home. It took us no time at all to realize that this is where we want to lay down our roots and grow old together. In 2012 we bought this incredible land and are finally ready to make our dreams come true.
We hope you enjoy Empyrean Villas. We have put our hearts, hopes and love into making this an amazing experience and we hope that you grow to love the Island as much as we do.

Did You Know? New York Is the Deadliest State for Pedestrians.
Did you know that New York State has the highest fatality rate in the nation for pedestrians? Topping the list of states at 29%, New York State's roads are among the deadliest for pedestrians, according to statistics reviewed by the Tri-State Transportation Campaign.
Although many of these accidents occur on the busy streets of New York City, Westchester County and surrounding communities contribute to these numbers. Out of 12 downstate counties, Westchester had 30 pedestrian fatalities on its roadways. The most dangerous streets, with two fatalities each, were Crompond Road, Old Post Road, and US 1.
Causes of Increased Pedestrian Deaths
Why are these horrible accidents occurring? A recent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) study concluded that 75% of pedestrian deaths occur when it is dark outside. There are many other contributing factors as well.
According to the NHTSA, the following are some of the most common factors that lead to pedestrian death:
Failure to yield right-of-way
Driver inattention
Pedestrian error
Increased use of electronic devices, both while walking and while driving
More SUVS and larger passenger vehicles on the road, which have a greater chance of resulting in death to pedestrian
In addition, with the COVID-19 outbreak, many more people have taken up walking in their neighborhoods for exercise, rather than heading for the gym. This puts more pedestrians on the roads.
Recent Westchester Pedestrian Accident
Although the data found that most of these accidents occur at night, when it is more difficult to see and be seen, day-time accidents occur as well. In Yonkers, on February 8, 2021, there was a deadly crash involving an off-duty Yonkers police sergeant and an 80-year-old pedestrian near Kimball Avenue and Fox Avenue in Westchester. Currently, no violations or charges have been filed and the accident remains under investigation.
Measures to Prevent Pedestrian Deaths
There are many suggestions being considered to help lower these numbers. Municipalities can help pedestrians by installing better crosswalks and sidewalks, better streetlights, and refuge islands placed in the middle of busy roads.
Similarly, car manufacturers can improve headlights to boost a driver's vision in the dark. Likewise, pedestrians can help drivers by always facing traffic, being aware of a blind curve, staying far enough off the road and by wearing bright, reflective clothing.
Recently, the New York State Department of Health issued a warning on Facebook regarding pedestrian safety. "You see headlights, but the driver may not see you, especially walking at dawn, dusk or after dark. See and Be Seen!"
Representing Pedestrian Accident Victims
Losing a loved one in an accident is nothing short of tragic. Our legal team at Injured 914 is dedicated to helping families and injury victims recover compensation throughout Westchester County. If you were injured as a pedestrian or have lost a loved one in this type of accident, contact our firm for a free consultation to discuss your legal options.

Q: Typo3 v7.6 and Imagemagick not work

I have installed typo3 7.6. To work with the images set, I installed Imagemagick 7. Then I added the necessary paths in the configuration. I tested it, but it does not work.
What is the reason?

Imagine breathing in fresh, coastal air with each inhalation of your practice.
As you release the air, you feel the warming sensation of the sun on your skin.
A gentle breeze brushes the heat off of your skin, cooling you down as you build heat.
Is there really any better way to do yoga?
Just under the terrace, you can look out into the ocean as you study for your certification course, making Portugal the most dreamy destination for a yoga teacher training. Ready for your upcoming life-changing experience?
If you get your RYT teacher certification from a Yoga Alliance registered yoga school, then you can be sure that you will be getting an in-depth study of the yogic lifestyle. These courses will include the study of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika, the yoga philosophy, asanas and postures, meditation, pranayama, and teaching yoga methodology. Alternatively, you can search for programs registered with the International Yoga Federation.
You can choose which yoga studio to train with based on the yoga style, such as yin yoga, Iyengar yoga, vinyasa flow yoga, yoga nidra, ashtanga yoga, or restorative yoga. You can also select your yoga course based on which programs you are most interested in, such as yoga therapy, tantra massage, Ayurveda, or diet.
Search for programs that are similar to the world-renowned Rishikesh Yogpeeth or Arhanta Yoga Ashram in India, or yoga studios like the Samahita Retreat in Thailand.
The first step to becoming a certified yoga instructor is to complete the 200 hour TTC course. And if you're going to make a yoga retreat out of it, Portugal is an amazing place to do it. There are plenty of beaches (the entire country is basically a coastline) and plenty of mountains, too. If you love to surf, hike, relax, explore, eat, or whatever, Portugal has it for you.
Perhaps the most popular style of yoga is Vinyasa. As a result, many yogis are looking for a teacher training that covers Vinyasa style yoga.

Choose between standard safety glasses and safety goggles to safeguard your employees. Workplace hazards should to be identified and analyzed when choosing eye protection to ensure proper protection. Safety glasses protect eyes against general impact. In work environments where ultraviolet radiation is a factor, glasses with UV protection are required. When work environments expose employees to high velocity particulates, safety goggles are a better option than safety glasses. Goggles are also essential when working with chemicals, vapors or fine dust.
AFT offers eye wear with a variety of lens colors and coatings to comfortably safeguard employees in a variety of environments. Employees who wear vision-correcting glasses will benefit from over-the-glass styles, while protective eyewear with adjustable, extendable temples offer a one-size-fits all option that allows employees to adjust glasses for a custom fit. Shop our selection of protective eyewear from trusted brands such as BOSS Safety, Crews Glasses, ERB Safety and Uvex by Honeywell. We know that style is just as important as safety, so if you don't see the lens or frame style that you prefer, or if you require bulk quantities, please contact us and let our experienced sales team provide a custom quote or search for the style you desire. When it comes to protecting your eyes, AFT has got you covered!

The Triple Sugar Threat (甘党1・2・3?, lit.: "1-2-3 Sweet Tooth") is a treasure in the game Pikmin 2. It is a hanami dango, a popular sweet in Japan. This particular stick contains one pink, one white, and one green sugar ball. It is found on sublevel 6 of the Snagret Hole and is held by one of two Burrowing Snagrets, usually the one closest to the water. Blue Pikmin can be used to cross the water or other Pikmin can be carefully guided across on small patches of land. Once the Snagret has been defeated, the player can cash in the Triple Sugar Threat for 60 pokos.

Usman Khawaja has been axed from Australia's XI to make way for the returning Steve Smith in the fourth Ashes Test, starting Wednesday.
Khawaja hasn't made a half-century all series and was considered to be in a shootout with Marcus Harris to play at Old Trafford
Harris has won that race and will be afforded a second chance this series to open alongside David Warner.

RSA v ENG
Uzzie cops drop for Smith
Khawaja is in a downward spiral and his career is at a crossroads
England's solution to an Ashes flop: Hide him down the order
Stay with us... why picking Mitch Marsh actually makes sense
Late umpiring shake-up confirmed for crucial Ashes Test
Starc's new skill put him back in the running for Ashes call-up
Khawaja will run the drinks having failed to impress in England across 12 innings, dating back to 2013. After six Tests in England, the 32-year-old averages just 19.66.
The left-hander narrowly outscored Harris in last week's tour match against Derbyshire, scoring 72 off 157. Harris also made a half-century (64), and has only played one Test since returning to the Australian side.
The rise of Marnus Labuschagne and Harris could count against Khawaja in the coming home summer, although the left-hander has proven those doubting his Test credentials wrong in the past and coach Justin Langer is a big fan.

"I like how calm he is in big Test matches. Sometimes it comes across as him being very laconic but Mark Waugh was like that as well," Langer said last month.
"He's been the pin-up boy of Australian cricket in the sense that he knew what he had to do. He had to get fitter and stronger, he had to improve his fielding.
"He's done all those things. He's been very good as a leader."
Khawaja suggested last week he still feels "really good batting" but a lack of big runs was "obviously frustrating".
Roy uprooted in England order
Fast bowler James Pattinson has also been left out of a 12-man squad, which includes left-armer Mitchell Starc, who is yet to play a match this series. Peter Siddle will also return having been rested at Headingley.
"The decision on the 12th man will be one of the bowlers," Langer said.
"Whatever three (fast bowlers) we select we're going to have a very good bowling attack."
Meanwhile, selectors have resisted the urge to pick Mitchell Marsh despite the all-rounder top-scoring against Derbyshire. That keeps Matthew Wade safe in the Australian middle-order, while vice-captain Travis Head will retain his spot at No.5.

Smith is expected to return to batting at No.4, which means Labuschagne will be promoted up the order into Khawaja's vacant spot at No.3.
Langer backed Smith to pick up where he left off in the Australian team after missing out on the third Test with a delayed concussion.
"He's moving really well. We're hopeful that he gets back into the zone, hits the ball off the middle of the bat," Langer said.
"The whole time he's been here he's been batting well. So let's hope he can continue that. It's important for our team and it's just nice to know that he's back in the team."
Australian XII: Tim Paine (c, wk), David Warner, Marcus Harris, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Matthew Wade, Pat Cummins, Peter Siddle, Mitch Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Nathan Lyon.

Interview with Beneath The Void!
Location: Warwick, New York
PSAB: Why did you choose the band name "Beneath The Void" for your band?
BTV: The band name was chosen to give people a name that they could take in any way they pleased whether it was a big empty space or a vault filled with your dreams, purities, fears, emotions, flaws, fantasies, imagination or really anything you can think the "Void" is. With the name being "Beneath The Void" I feel it could be a neutral zone between earth and space or beyond that. The concept for me is just my strong imagination. There's no wrong definition in our minds.
PSAB: You recently released your debut self-titled EP. How was the feedback when it released?
BTV: Well for what it is i suppose not so bad. I mean for most of the band this was our first release period so its definitely our "guinea pig" EP or demo so to speak. It gave us a great perspective as to what people thought of us and the fine line between what the majority of listeners are looking for and just what we wanna play. I think in our next release it will show we have a better fine balance of the two now. Whats really interesting is the most/best feedback we have recieved was from The U.K or even australia rather than the U.S which to me is amazing.
PSAB: If you could be signed to any record label, which label would that be and why?
BTV: Metal blade or Sumerian because they have a lot of our favorite bands on the label and from what I can see both labels are growing and doing well. We wouldn't mind being on the same lineup as many of our favorites though it would be intimidating.
PSAB: How is the metal scene in Warwick, New York?
BTV: Currently very desolate this genre of music is a rarity to be heard or mentioned in this town and i think we are the only active metal band in Warwick. Now talking 6 or years ago? It was pretty sweet for a small town. Luckily Jersey is very close haha.
PSAB: What one band has played the most influence on your music?
BTV: Far too many to name because so many have had a heavy influence on us.
PSAB: Do you have any shout outs to give to your fans, and the readers out there?
BTV: Hell yeah to all who have taken the time to check us out and listen to our music especially those who come out to see us perform live! Big thanks to a venue called "Sounds Asylum" out of middletown New York go check

It is the last day of week 6 and I finally plugged all the weights and measurements into a spreadsheet I used for previous workouts and got some hard facts.
I'm a measurement nut, so I like as much data as possible. I weight myself everyday and my scale tells me weight and percent body fat. I know those scales aren't perfect, but if you do it at consistently the same time every day they should give you accurate trend data. I do it first thing in the morning after I pee.
I also measure myself with a tape measure every Monday. Chest, belly (at the belly button), waist (narrowest part of my torso), hips (where my belt goes), thigh, and neck. This lets me calculate Waist to Hip, Waist to Chest Ratio, and a Body Fat measurement for men that the Navy uses with just measurements. I also added BMI.
Given all that data, here's some results.
Total weight loss: 8.6 lbs so far.
Percent Body fat loss: 2%.
This means I've lost 6.37 lbs of fat and 2.23 lbs of lean body mass. I'd rather have not lost muscle, but I feel stronger, so I'm not sure what that means. Strength increases can be caused by muscle recruitment, which means you are using the muscle you have more efficiently. My muscles are also harder for what that is worth.
Lost an inch in my belly and chest and lost .65 inches in my waist and 1/2 an inch on the belt line.
My BMI has gone from 27.07 to 25.94. According to the linked website, you are overweight if your BMI is 25-29. So I'm right on the edge of "normal".
My spreadsheet also projects using the average loss and number of weeks left in the challenge. It says at the end I'll weight 188 and my percent BF will be 24.1.
So things are working, but I'm still thinking about changing my diet. I don't feel like I'm getting enough to eat because I've started being hungry all the time. I'm thinking about going low carb – which P90x tells you to do from the beginning if you want to get lean. Of course I've become so accustom to entering my calories I might freak out if I started entering higher calorie things. I haven't decided yet, but I want to be leaner in 3 weeks when I go to Vegas. I'm sure we'll be at the pool and I'm not shirtless ready yet.

Create a green space on your driveway- Do it yourself or professionally installed with so many options! A while back, I wrote about Green Driveways and Paths, which ended up being a pretty popular article. I figured that it would be helpful to see your options when it comes to porous surfaces, permeable paths and eco-friendly driveways.
Green driveways not only are more pleasant to look at, they also can reduce urban heat retention, reduce CO2, reduce runoff, improve drainage and aquifer recharging, provide some water filtration and more! They can also be cheaper in the long run over asphault (resurfacing costs and crack repairs) and concrete (repairing cracks, staining) not to mention preventing washouts and pot holes.
Systems already embraced in Europe typically last over 20-30 years, with little to no repairs or maintenance. The main options for green driveways are using some sort of permeable surface along with turf, gravel or ground cover to enhance the beauty and green factor.
The most inexpensive and easiest to do yourself, the basic concept is to lay a brick or stone tread for the tires. This will give your driveway a rustic feel as settling and compaction of soil beneath the tracks will lead to an uneven surface. Some may find this desirable to complete the green look, others may want to pursue more finished options. If you need a larger surface, such as a full driveway with multiple approaches, you will want to look into the alternatives below.
This option creates a solid structure with voids for drainage and ground cover to grow in. Upside is it is inexpensive, fairly easy to do yourself (DIY) and effective. The turf or recommended native ground cover will spread to cover the blocks leaving you with what would appear to be a lawn or yard area. Where you may run into issues is with settling, dead ground cover if you actually park a car on top for any extended period of time.
The more professional option, with better results in the long run would be a grid system. There are several out there with varying costs and diffuculty of installation. The basic concept is to set the grids in gravel and sand to help distribute vehicle weight, preventing compacted roots and ruts.
Grasspave2 grids – Materials and installation cost $4.50 to $8 a square foot, depending on the existing soil.
Geoblock grids – Grids run $3 a square foot and usually do not require any gravel or sand for home driveways.
Ecogrid – Prices depend on application (they have different thicknesses for light or heavy duty).

Zidovudine inhibits thymidine phosphorylation in the isolated perfused rat heart
Delia Susan-Resiga, Alice T. Bentley, Matthew D. Lynx, Darcy D. LaClair, Edward E. McKee
Zidovudine (AZT; 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine), a thymidine analog, has been a staple of highly active antiretroviral therapy. It is phosphorylated in the host to the triphosphate and functions by inhibiting the viral reverse transcriptase. However, long-term use of AZT is linked to various tissue toxicities, including cardiomyopathy. These toxicities are associated with mitochondrial DNA depletion, which is hypothesized to be caused by AZT triphosphate inhibition of mitochondrial DNA polymerase γ. In previous work with isolated heart mitochondria, we demonstrated that AZT phosphorylation beyond the monophosphate was not detected and that AZT itself was a potent inhibitor of thymidine phosphorylation. This suggests an alternative hypothesis in which depletion of the TTP pool may limit mitochondrial DNA replication. The present work extends these studies to the whole cell by investigating the metabolism of thymidine and AZT in the intact isolated perfused rat heart. [3H]thymidine is converted to [3H]TTP in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The level of [3H]TMP is low, suggesting that the reaction catalyzed by thymidine kinase is the rate-limiting step in phosphorylation. [3H]AZT is converted in a time- and concentration-dependent manner to AZT monophosphate, the only phosphorylated product detected after 3 h of perfusion. Both compounds display negative cooperativity, similar to the observations with cloned and purified mitochondrial thymidine kinase 2. The presence of AZT in the perfusate inhibits the phosphorylation of [3H] thymidine with a 50% inhibitory concentration of 24 ± 4 μM. These data support the hypothesis that AZT-induced mitochondrial cardiotoxicity may be caused by a limiting pool of TTP that lowers mitochondrial DNA replication.

There's somewhat of a paradox inherent in Vundabar's songwriting – a conflicting sense of nostalgia contrasted with the realization that they couldn't sound more current. The music they make feels like something that should have been heard a long time ago, while simultaneously continuing to forge ahead sonically. Vundabar's high energy live show is the stand out quality of this band and is an art they've undoubtedly perfected by touring non-stop around the country. Vundabar's shows never fail to be captivating, complete with infectious jams, guitar moves galore, intricate drum work, and humorous stage banter to top it all off, the band has become known for putting on an entertaining show.
The Red Pears are an indie/alternative band from El Monte, CA just a little east of Los Angeles. The band consists of Henry Vargas on guitar and vocals, Jose Corona on drums, and their good friend Patrick Juarez taking on bass duties. The Red Pears were created the summer of 2014, when Jose and Henry got together forming another with a new concept- having known each since high school playing in different groups, separately and together. Things took off for The Red Pears rather quickly, crediting shared similar influences, similar backgrounds and a similar mindset as the main reasons.


With 20 years of experience, I know and have lived how Project Management over the years has changed. Submitting my CV with project management experience is not really cutting it now, you know why? Because companies and organisations are going through major change and need leaders who can take them on that change.
A Project Manager is a loose name or title. If you're not from the project management world, you are told you are someone who bosses others around (my favourite explanation my brother describes my job as). Yes there is an element of coordination, organisation, leading others, but no good PM is bossing them around. That's not even needed experts say now, why have a PM, if you can have self organising teams with Agile? True a good working team, does not need someone else to tell them what to do, but merely guide them, coach and take the flack and be that spokesperson when all else fails and the project gets hairy. Believe me it does get hairy; the PM is there to shield and defend as best possible, always constructive, factual, diligent and proud of the team behind that project.
Traditional project management is for me the foundation, the bread and butter of a well performing project manager. The tools, techniques and experience from waterfall and traditional PM is invaluable and gives a great framework to build upon. Now as technology and working practices have changed, as well as no longer a job for life. Agile has allowed some fluidity but still based on those essential traditional methods.
What's next and how will it evolve?
Project managers in my experience, are also change agents, life coaches, transformation leads, leaning processes, identifying business process changes not just the project they are leading or implementing.
It's evolving as the industry and world evolves, does a PM for example need to be full time or have full time tasks, no.
Do we need to work in just one industry? Theoretically no.
Why can't a good experienced PM being able to handle the same challenges of over budget, over-resourced, risks and issues whether it's in Financial Services, Construction, Marketing, Public Sector or a non-profit? I'd like to think that the PMI or other body would think that would be possible, but I know the answer. We are typecast into certain industries, due to your experience.
For example I have mainly worked in Financial Services in delivering complex web and integration software programmes, but I am fortunate to have also worked in the branding marketing and non profit sectors and can re-forge my image and use my blended skills to fit to the company's needs in a PM type role.
Now there is one area I believe the role of PM is definitely evolving into. Transformation.
Whatever the circumstance of change; acquisition, growth, external factors, economy, transformation is very much here to stay and in demand. I've spoken to local agencies where clients now are looking for more than a marketing digital agency but someone who can translate business needs to solve it for them, in the guise of a transformation. A good transformation project manager would be able to speak the language of the business, converse with all stakeholders and still deliver the bread and butter of excellent Project Management. They'll also be able to identify gaps in processes, team structure, ways of working that all go together with project delivery and operational efficiencies. I've seen a few discussions about 'junior project managers', this role is non existent in mind, there's either experienced or non-experienced PMs with length of tenure an indication towards level of experience. You'll get what you pay for!
So those zombies, the current Project Managers walking dead? They will remain so if they don't look outward, I call it 'bringing outside ideas in'. Learn new practices, retraining regularly and networking.
Project Managers in the future will need to have a greater understanding and take a larger role in the active delivery of complex projects.

EFG Essentials: Great Video Games for Kids on Nintendo Switch
by EFG Staff November 6, 2020
by EFG Staff November 6, 2020 2 comments
The Engaged Family Gaming team has the mission to provide information and support families who want to play video games with their kids (and board games too). We work hard to provide parents with the tools they need to make informed decisions about their children's gaming. To facilitate this, we help parents who might not be "gamers" themselves learn to understand the games their children are playing and help them find great video games for their kids.
The "EFG Essentials" is a core collection of games we frequently recommend across different genres. The purpose of these essentials is to provide a starting point for families to engage with high-quality games. Below are our EFG Essential games for kids on the Nintendo Switch.
ESRB Rating: E 10+
Also Available On: PS4, Xbox One
Minecraft is one of the best selling games of all time, and one of EFG's family games of the last decade. It is so well known that I questioned whether or not to include it here. But, it is too important of a game to leave off.
Minecraft holds a special place in a lot of kid's hearts because it is so flexible. It can be so many different games for so many different people. It can be a survival game, a creative outlet, a multiplayer battle game, and more. It even ends up being the equivalent of a popular TV show considering how many hours of the game are consumed globally each month (Hint: It's a lot.)
Super Mario Odyssey is a great Mario game that just about anyone can play and enjoy. In this edition, you can throw your hat at enemies to take control of them and you take over their bodies to use their powers. There is plenty of content here and collecting all 999 power moons is a challenge that does not get old. This is a must-buy for all Nintendo Switch owners
Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
ESRB Rating: E
The Mario Kart series has slowly grown to be the biggest game in their stable of exclusives. Ever iteration is met with thunderous excitement and delivers fun that the entire family can enjoy! Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the definitive version of the very best that the franchise has to offer.
Every track is masterfully created (or recreated) and the music is jazzy and fun in all the right ways! Not only that, but the deluxe version includes the DLC that introduced Link and Isabelle to Mario Kart and made the case for the next game to just be called, "Nintendo Kart."
This is the first game I recommend to families who buy the Nintendo Switch. It is an absolute must own.
Action Role-playing
Long time EFG fans will know that this is one of my favorite games of all time and that means that the games above it have to be pretty significant in order to leave Breath of the Wild in the 4th spot. That isn't to say that this isn't one of, if not THE, best video games Nintendo has ever made though.
Breath of the Wild was our game of the year in 2017 and it faced stiff competition from Horizon: Zero Dawn.
It earned its place because it took the Legend of Zelda franchise in a bold new direction by eschewing the linear path of item collection and temple dungeon completion in favor of an open world that could be tackled in any order. Open world games are by no means new, but this was a welcome addition to Zelda and I can't wait to see where they take it next.
Captain toad Treasure Tracker is a simple puzzle game that can be challenging but is very accessible. This was originally a minigame in Super Mario 3D World that was so in-depth they made it into a full game. We love spending time solving these puzzles.
It's a top-down puzzle platformer without a jump button. Your goal is to get to the star usually at the top of the level, so you have to figure out how to get to the top. Definitely a fun time for all Puzzle game fans.
The phrase, "Let's settle it in Smash!" is very common in our house, and I can't imagine that it is uncommon elsewhere.
The Super Smash Bros. series has been around since the Nintendo 64 era and it continually grows in scope and in popularity. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate lives up to his name and its fan base is huge as it is the best selling fighting game of all time. There are obviously members of the Super Smash Bros. community that prefer earlier games like Super Smash Bros. Melee. But, as far as we're concerned it is the best game in the series.
It's often difficult to recommend fighting games to anything other than fighting game fans. Smash is the exception I can recommend this game to anyone that owns a Nintendo switch and feels comfortable that they will enjoy it.
Platformer +
Super Mario Maker 2 is one of the best creative tools for young and adult gamers alike. This game lets you create Super Mario levels using art styles and mechanics from across the history of Nintendo. It has a well-made tutorial that offers plenty of new ideas. Players can browse player-made content by individual creators or select an endless mode that selects levels based on difficulty. Super Mario Maker 2 is easily the best level creation experience for the Nintendo Switch.
Pokemon Sword and Shield are great Pokemon games and are great RPGs. With a team of six Pokemon, you will travel the Galar Region on your quest to become the champion. Though the campaign is short the post-game content is enough to last hundreds of hours. You can catch all the Pokemon, make a competitive team, and participate in online tournaments, or you can battle your friends.
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is one of the best 2d platformers available on the Nintendo Switch. This is actually a rerelease of the original game that was available on the Wii U. It has been polished, and a new gameplay mode featuring Funky Kong has been added to help make the game more accessible to newer/younger players. Funky Kong moves through levels on his surfboard so he doesn't take damage from spikes and can hover while he comes down from jumps.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe
The 2.5D side-scrolling port of the Wii U original has been updated for HD and includes all the original maps and the New Super Luigi U DLC. Nintendo has also included a new playable character, Toadette, for the Switch version. This is a hidden gem because so few people bought a Wii U that the original game went unnoticed to all but the most hardcore of fans. It is definitely worth a look.
Animal Crossing New Horizons is a life sim game where you move to a deserted island with a group of animals. The goal is to spend time on your island making it beautiful, befriending other animals on the island, and earning money (bells). The available tasks change with the seasons, but there is always something to do. This is a must-have for Switch owners looking a relaxing game.
The Adventure Pals
Also Available On: PS4, Xbox One, PC
The Adventure Pals from Armor Games is an absurd jaunt through a bizarre world where almost nothing makes sense. Turtles can do backflips. Whales complain about "hashtag body shaming." The hero's best friend, Sparkles the giraffe, can use his tongue like a propeller to slow their collective fall. The villain wants to turn everyone into hot dog monsters. Every single one of those sentences is true. And here's one more: This game is just as fun as it is ridiculous.
Shovel Knight Treasure Trove
Also Available On: PS4, Xbox One, PC, Wii U, 3DS
This wily Kickstarter from 2013 is still alive and kicking. Shovel Knight does an amazing job of taking all of the things that we love about old school platformers like Mega Man, Duck Tales, and even Castlevania and smashing them together into a wonderful, cohesive whole.
Shovel Knight is a fun protagonist whose adventures are silly more often than not, but packs some serious challenge. The other games in the treasure trove are all wonderful and feature different knights from the first game in their own wild adventures; each with their own mechanics and stories.
It's hard to find a better value than Shovel Knight Treasure Trove and it is easy to recommend it to anyone, especially folks looking for an old school challenge!
The most recent update to the Mario Party franchise brings back to 4-player board game mode that has been so beloved as well as introducing a 2 vs 2 mode with grid based maps. You can test your skills against the others in your living room as well as see how you stack up against others across the globe in the new Online Marathon feature. Nintendo has also leveraged the ability to link two Nintendo Switch systems side by side on a table to play arena games or mini baseball. This is going to be the party game that you want for game night.
Snipperclips is a two-player puzzle game where players each take on the role of different shapes. The goal is to overlap parts of each other's "bodies" and "snip" off the overlapping pieces. This will let you complete challenges like creating a bowl-like shape to carry a ball across a playing field. This is a fully cooperative experience that is unlike anything else that you've seen before.
ESRB Rating:E
Rocket League is, quite literally, soccer as played by rocket-powered vehicles. It launched in in 2015 to great fanfare and has only grown as they added more game-modes like "hockey" and "basketball"
This is a great game to play (and watch) because of how wild the matches can be. There is just something exciting about watching race cars flying around a track and crashing into a massive steel ball and trying to score a goal.
Simply put… The Messenger is a modern response to the Ninja Gaiden series from the NES era. Sabotage Studio is a team full of people who love that game and have gone out of their way to show their reverence in game form.
It isn't an easy game, but the experience is well worth the effort. The soundtrack alone is worth spending time with the game. But, exploring the different levels AND playing with time travel mechanics are rewarding.
This is definitely a game that needs to be on your radar.
Farming Simulator / RPG
Also Available On: PS4, Xbox One, PC, Mobile
Click the picture to purchase on the online Switch Store.
Stardew Valley is a remarkable game. It is a farming and life simulator where you play as a younger person who inherits a relative's run-down farm. You need to build it up, explore the surrounding wilderness, meet people, get married, etc. It is a wildly engaging game that has been a sensation since it's release. This is a great game to relax with.
Tetris 99
Tetris is an all time classic, but Tetris 99 surprised us by adding in a HECTIC battle royale mode. You play Tetris against 99 other players in a frantic race for survival.
I have spent hours playing this game and building my Tetris skills. Everything moves at a desperate pace so the games move very quickly as well. Its definitely worth a look.
Dragon Quest Builders 2
The Dragon Quest Builders series paints itself in a much lighter tone than the Dragon Quest series. Specifically, Dragon Quest Builders 2 integrates co-op multiplayer that shows promise for both epic exploration, combat, and construction to put it in league with Minecraft in terms of its possibilities. Unlike Minecraft though, the story of Dragon Quest Builders 2 is meant to also serve as a tutorial and narrative focus for its block based construction. This is in contrast to the much more open world that is traditional Minecraft. The play dynamic will give some structure to keep the sprawling options presented in a meaningful way and keep the more casual fan engaged in the gameplay.
Kirby Star allies is a simple platformer that anyone can enjoy. The game is fun to play, and if you want to 100% the game then you will have plenty of things to do, with many hours of play. Plus with the ease of access to local play and with controls that work well with all control schemes, it makes a great multiplayer game for all ages. A must-have for all switch owners.
Sonic Mania Plus
Sonic Mania is a fast paced action/platformer that brings modern polish to a nostalgic classic. Sonic Mania is features Sega's iconic Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails (with additional characters in its most recent rerelease) battling their oldest foe Dr. Eggman.
This game features levels that are blend of remixed classic Sonic from the Sega Genesis Era, and original locations built to make the 12 zones as a whole feel like breaking new ground while keeping it harmonious with the classics. Sound track and Art style are deeply inspired by the 16 bit era, but benefit from complex remixes and smooth flashy animation thanks in part to modern processing power. Controls differ depending on which character you play, everyone has 'gotta go fast', but each features different movement options to make each character's traversal through the levels a distinct experience.
Sonic Mania has a very robust local multiplayer experience, with available game modes that allow for cooperation and competition. It's multiplayer only lacks in its ability to be bring all of its fully online.
Sonic Mania Plus, Sonic Mania's most recent release, solves some of the imbalances during gameplay by rebalancing boss difficulty and turning Bonus Stage content from a counterintuitive 3D experience to a send up of Sonic Pinball. The Plus Edition also introduces "Encore Mode", a new game plus style experience where both art and item placement have been remixed to provide a newer experience.
Sonic Mania Plus is an EFG Essential for anyone looking for the perfect modern Sonic Experience.
After Yoshi's Wooly World, Nintendo has done it again and added a cute aesthetic to a Yoshi's Island game. This time around the levels look like a child made them out of craft supplies including cardboard, paperclips, paper cups, and tape. While you traverse the levels, there are the typical Yoshi collectibles, hearts, flowers, and red coins. The collectibles are what really make this game a challenge. You can go through the levels, or you can try and collect everything. At certain points during the game, you will need to replay levels to search for certain items in the background and foreground. Each level also has an opposite view where you much search for a Poochy puppy. While the game can be tedious with replaying levels, sometimes multiple times with different objectives, this is a great stepping off point for your young children to play a platformer.
Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition S
ESRB Rating: T
Also Available On: PS4, PC
Dragon Quest XI is the most recent edition to an ongoing series of role playing games by Square Enix. The series is known for the art style of Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball. Dragon Quest is a series that consistently comes out with a reliable turn-based combat system that has seen nothing but simple improvements.
Its place as an EFG essentials is based on its ease of entry in an ongoing, fantasy story. The fantasy elements that many other games work off of got their start here with a chosen warrior of light and a band of friends and heroes rally to fight the darkness.
Dragon Quest has had a consistent following in Japan since its first incarnation on the NES in the 1980's. That following was earned by creating a game as much storybook as turn/quest based game.
Luigi doesn't get the spotlight very often. That honor is normally reserved for his brother Mario. The Luigi's Mansion series is the exception. These spooky adventures feature Luigi while he tries to rescue his lost brother from King Boo. Luigi's Mansion 3 and includes a lot more variety in the environments than previous editions because it takes place in a massive haunted hotel. This will be a great game for kids who love to explore and solve puzzles. (Note: This game is definitely more silly than it is spooky so don't be super concerned about kids getting scared.)
Addendum: Fortnite
At this point almost every kid on Earth has played Fortnite. But, we wanted to include it here for the sake of completion. It is a worthy recommendation though. Fortnite is huge. It is a great alternative for more mature shooters since it there is no blood and most of the action is over the top and silly as opposed to violent.

11 Games to Make You Laugh
Joy July 20, 2020 - 12:14 am
Can you guys help with a list of good co-op games for younger kids (4-10) to play online. Not couch co-op where they have to be in the same room, but essentially board games they can play online with others. Like my oldest who is 10y/o and plays online chess with his friends. Something like that but for younger kids. Something strategic, teamwork or competitive or world building, but not too violent like Worms.
Stephen Duetzmann July 20, 2020 - 9:32 am
Hi Joy! Thanks so much for your comment!
My first recommendation is Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics. This is a collection of board games and other simple multiplayer games that can be played online on the Switch.
Non-violent cooperative online games are rare, but we will research where we can and publish a list soon.

Swedish team proves unstoppable in Hickstead Nations Cup showdown

Nations Cup showjumping
Royal International Horse Show (RIHS)
Sweden continued their impressive form in the Longines Nations Cup series to sweep victory in the Hickstead leg on Friday (26 July).
The team only needed three of their four team members to jump to secure the win on a total of four faults at the Longines Royal International Horse Show.
Last year's winners Ireland were drawn first to go and put in strong performances across the board to finish second on a score of eight, with Italy close behind on 10 faults.
Sweden, who won the Nations Cup on home soil at Falsterbo earlier this month (11 to 14 July), were the only team to finish on a clean sheet in the first round.
Fredrik Jonsson (Cold Play), Angelie von Essen (Luikan Q) and Peder Fredricson (Zacramento) produced foot-perfect rounds, meaning fourth team rider Rolf-Goran Bengtsson (Oak Grove's Carlyle) had no need to jump.
"When I was told that Sweden had never won here I thought, 'we'd better change that!'," said Swedish chef d'equipe Henrik Ankarcrona. "Luckily, it all came through."
The trio added just four faults from the second round, meaning nobody could catch them.
Ireland and Belgium were neck-and-neck going into the second round, with the final standing dependent on Irish team anchor Paul O'Shea and Imerald Van'T Voorhor jumping clear.
This was the first Nations Cup track for course builder Paul Connor and it was met with praise from the riders. Faults were spread across the 1.60m course, with the treble at four and the big oxer after the water catching out several.
Mr Connor said he was "very pleased" with how it rode.
"The questions I asked played their part, which was good, and faults came all over the course," he said. "It is an honour to have been asked to design and build it and there's a great support team for my first one."

Rome is the epitome of a European capital city that has a rich history and culture, and is proud to keep it that way at its forefront. Its gay scene is not as prominent as other cities such as Paris, Berlin and Madrid – and you can probably "thank" the fact that the Pope resides there for that – but in the past decade or so has begun to catch up and cater towards its LGBT community and tourists that travel there. The city does, however, have a lot to offer travellers who want to sightsee and learn more about Rome and Italy's long and interesting history and many consider it one the world's best places to escape to for a romantic holiday.
Arcigay has been the largest national LGBT organisation since 1985 and have been fighting for more LGBT rights for many years, including civil unions, gay marriage, gays and lesbians being able to adopt and more recognition for transgender people. Many gay venues throughout Italy require people, both natives and foreigners, to purchase Arcigay membership (usually about €10), in addition to the admission cost, even those who are just visiting the country for a short time.
Unlike more modern and cosmopolitan cities such as Manchester and Barcelona, Rome's gay venues are not confined in one specific area and are found all cross the city, but neither are they as obvious, with many of them being hidden behind busy areas down small streets or above other buildings and businesses. This is perhaps because of the city's strong religious influence that gay places feel less accepted or are made to cover up. This should not stop tourists though, as there are an increasing number of gay-owned bars and clubs, shops, restaurants, cafes and other venues that should be checked out and are becoming more and more popular with the LGBT community, particularly around Viale San Giovanni, which attracts most of them (although again, is not the city's main gay area). There's even a gay beach located about 40km away from the city. For a full, detailed list of places, click here.
Besides trying out Rome's gay scene, the city's obvious attractions are of course its beautiful and intriguing architecture – which ranges from ancient to medieval, from renaissance to baroque, from neoclassicism to to fascist; historical and religious sites; and famous statues. The Colosseum, the Vatican, the Trevi Fountain, the Piazza del Popolo, the Pantheon, the Column of Marcus Aurelius and the gardens of Villa Borghese are just some of the most popular places worth visiting. Art galleries, history museums and, more recently, fashion exhibitions are also abundant. However, if you really are more of a modern fashionista, then style capital Milan – approximately 600km to the north of Rome – is the place to go if you have time, and although it seems far, a stop off at Florence along the way is recommended. For a shorter but just as worthwhile a journey, Naples is situated around 220km south of Rome.
At Gay Homestays we have an extensive range of more than 100 accommodations available in Rome, whether they be spare rooms in people's apartments or houses, guesthouses or B&Bs or whole properties, with a good mix of both LGBT and LGBT-friendly hosts who welcome anybody to stay with them to enjoy and explore this great and interesting city. So why not check them out and book one for when you next travel to Rome?
The best times to visit Rome are during the cooler but warm months of Spring and Autumn but if you want to go for Pride and see the LGBT community take over the usually conservative city, then it takes place on 15th June. From then on and until September there is also "Gay Village", a summer-long festival chock-a-block with events and parties all over Rome and in its gay venues.
