"Ground yourself in wellness and serenity so you can shine and soar to your fullest potential."
My name is Mary Patterson. I received my massage therapy training at Kennebec Valley Community College in Fairfield, Maine, where I received my Associate's Degree in Registered Nursing two years prior to beginning the massage program. I also received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Holy Cross before that. I have a passion for wellness and I have enjoyed becoming a licensed practitioner in the fields of nursing and massage, a certified practitioner in Reiki, and yoga, reflexology, and Jin Shin Jyutsu. I am certified in pregnancy massage, basic elements 1 of craniosacral therapy, and I have completed training for part 1 of Yamuna body rolling and Yamuna foot fitness. I am eager to share my passion for wellness through my service oriented work and hope to inspire and help others along their path towards health and well-being.
My business mission is to promote holistic health and wellness to the community by providing quality services in massage, yoga, Reiki, and reflexology in a relaxing and professional environment.
My personal mission is to use my passion for wellness in order to live a life of wellness and inspire others to live well physically, emotionally, and spiritually. By using my abilities as a nurse, massage therapist, yoga teacher, reflexologist, Jin Shin Jyutsu, craniosacral therapy, and Reiki practitioner, and enhanced by my caring, optimistic, and encouraging personality, I strive to assist and teach others in the areas of bodywork, exercise, and relaxation.
Massage, yoga, Reiki, reflexology, Jin Shin Jyutsu, and cransiosacral therapy are all natural, holistic approaches to wellness. They promote relaxation, a sense of groundedness, and mental focus, as well as help restore energy flow and balance body systems. They also increase muscle health, tone, flexibility, posture, balance, and help heal injuries by assisting the body's natural ability to heal itself.


The Komakorau Stream at Henry Rd is a water quality site. The stream is soft bottomed with the substrate consisting of mud/silt at the monitoring site. The stream banks have some riparian cover in the vicinity of the monitoring site.
The Komakorau Stream drains the area around Puketaha/Gordonton, and flows into the Mangawara River near Taupiri and the Mangawara then flows into the Waikato River. The water quality sampling site it situated on Henry Road, just past Candyland. The predominant vegetation upstream of the sampling site is pasture, with dairy being the dominant land use. The stream passes through unfenced pasture at the sampling point with some riparian cover, mainly consisting of willows. The substrate is primarily mud/silt with a high concentration of iron oxide, which gives the water its orange colour.

Though the 29,029-foot-high summit of Mount Everest was first conquered on foot by Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary in 1953, it was conquered by air two decades earlier.
In April 1933, RAF squadron leader Douglas Douglas-Hamilton, otherwise known as Lord Clydesdale, led an ambitious attempt to fly over the summit of the world's tallest mountain.
With the financial backing of philanthropist Lady Houston, the Houston Everest Expedition took off from an airstrip near Purnea, India at 8:25 a.m. on April 3, 1933.
Lord Clydesdale flew a modified Westland PV-3 biplane accompanied by Colonel Stewart Blacker. Following them in a Westland PV-6 was Flight Lieutenant David McIntyre and photographer S.R. Bonnett.
The flight would test not only the mechanical capabilities of the biplanes at dizzying altitudes, but also the endurance of the pilots in the thin and frigid air.
Expedition members give a statement before departing London.

The crew members were flying without the benefit of pressurized cabins, and relied on oxygen tanks to breathe.
At one point in the flight, Bonnett felt faint and experienced shooting pains in his stomach. He paused filming and sat down inside the cabin, where he discovered a gaping fracture in his oxygen line.
He quickly tied a handkerchief around the breach, and was able to resume his duties without losing consciousness.

As the planes neared Everest, the deflection of winds off the mountain created a down current, which caused the planes to drop 1,500 feet as they struggled to climb skyward.
Despite the high winds, at 10:05 both planes soared a hundred feet over the summit. They spent another 15 minutes circling the roof of the world before beginning their journey back.
Lord Clydesdale was awarded the Air Force Cross for his leadership of the expedition, and the footage shot by Bonnett was cut into the Academy Award-winning documentary Wings Over Everest.

When You Can't Look at the Photograph, Look Into the Person Behind It
by Aaron Schmidt September 25, 2020
Working with the Boston Public Library's extensive photographic collections from home has been a challenge. While digitized images are crucial in our work, evaluating an object that you cannot see in person is like solving a murder with just the chalk outline. But thanks to a photograph inventory project at the BPL completed in 2019, we can use recorded data to learn about the history and context of the images. In the last four months, we have concentrated our efforts on learning more about the personal histories of the photographers represented in our collection.
Screenshot of the photographic creator data and demographic worksheet
In this period, we have made a particular effort to learn more about the collection's women photographers. In doing so, we were able to discover the stories of some of the pioneers in their field.
Allen C. Hinckley as Hagen in Wagner's Götterdämmerung by Emilie Bieber
In 19th century commercial photography, it is well documented that many of those working in photographic studios were women. They worked as greeters to the customers, and behind the scene as colorists. (This was considered an appropriately "feminine" professional pursuit at the time.) Some women did the technical work of printing and developing the images, but they almost never had their name stamped on the photograph, denying them due credit.
But through our demographic research, we have discovered a number of photographs taken by women who founded and ran commercial studios. These include:
Emilie Bieber, who was likely the first woman to run a photo studio in Germany
Adèle Perlmutter-Heilperin of Atelier Adèle in Vienna, who ran a studio co-owned with her brothers and was the only woman to be appointed a photographer of the Austrian imperial court
The mysterious Madame del Tufo, who ran a studio in Colombo, Sri Lanka
Portrait of Unidentified Sitter, Photograph by Helen F. Stuart - Carte de Visite Collection, Boston Public Library
Closer to home in Boston, we have the fascinating story of Helen F. Stuart, who started her career as a "hair artist" and taught herself photography to document her creations. She expanded her interest in the photographic arts and became involved in Spirit Photography, a macabre fad that used photographic trickery to create images that depicted departed loved ones floating as spirits in the background. While we don't have any examples of her spirit work in our collection, Stuart's earth-bound portraits prove her talent.
Thanks to the Associates of the Boston Public Library, the work of many press photographers is discoverable online in the Brearley Collection, a huge aid to those of us working with these collections from home. As we see from our press holdings, opportunities for women photographers in the commercial realm became more plentiful in the last half of the 20th century. While working as a press photographer was a high pressure, low pay, and largely anonymous pursuit, it put you on the front row of history as it was being made.
Two of the most well represented female photographers in our collection include Judith Buck and Teresa Zabala, who made their living in this rough and tumble world of newspaper photography: Buck for the Boston Herald as early as 1965, and Zabala first for the Boston Record-American and later for a long stint at the New York Times. We are just starting to uncover their stories and look forward to sharing this research with the public alongside their groundbreaking work.

ARTES event: Picturing a New World – Cortés – Moctezuma, 1519–2019: A Special Study Afternoon and Conversation
A guest post by Anna Espinola Lynn and Clare Hills-Nova
On 23 October, 2019, ARTES, together with the Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford, hosted a transdisciplinary session at the University's Weston Library, focusing on Mesoamerican manuscripts. The event was designed to mark the 500th anniversary of the historic meeting between the Spanish explorer Hernán Cortés (1485–1547) and the Aztec ruler Moctezuma the Younger (1466–1520), just outside Tenochtitlan (now Mexico City), on 8 November 1519. Attendees included students, academics and representatives of other cultural institutions.
Attendance at this exclusive event was by invitation only. Would you like to take part in similar visits in the future? Join ARTES today!

The afternoon began in the Weston Library's Visiting Scholars' Centre. On view were the Selden Roll (MS. Arch. Selden. A. 72 (3)) alongside two modern books produced by Alfonso García Tellez, using the traditional, amate paper-based techniques evidenced by rare Pre-Hispanic codices and rolls.
The session began with Sir John Elliott's essay on the Cortez-Moctezuma encounter before moving on to presentations by Giuseppe Marcocci (University of Oxford), Emily Floyd (UCL), and the Bodleian Libraries' Head of Conservation, Virginia Lladó-Buisán.
Giuseppe followed Sir John's paper with a consideration of the roles vision and visual culture took on in the encounter between the Spanish visitors and the Mexica. Turning to contemporary accounts of the encounter that emphasize vision, as well as representations of the imagined or real Other, Giuseppe pointed to visual asymmetries active in colonial contexts as they participated in relations of power.
Emily, meanwhile, provided a reading of the pre-colonial Selden Roll as it expressed the formation of a new cycle of rule in central Mexico. She discussed the multiplicity of ways the Roll can be read, and invited further conversation as to possible representations of time, succession, generation and regeneration. Regarding the name of the Selden Roll, Emily noted that this was associated with its colonial history of collecting more than with the Roll's actual content, commenting that 'The Roll of New Fire' had recently been adopted as a more appropriate title for it.
Virginia followed up with insights into the processes and materials used in creating the Roll, drawing upon the results of recent research. Participants in this session had the unique pleasure of getting up close to the Selden Roll and asking those experts present questions about anything from shifts in hue or line quality, to contexts of production in pre-colonial and colonial environments, and on the multivalent symbolisms in the Roll.
Following a compelling period of conversation around and about the objects, the afternoon concluded with a visit to the Weston Library's Talking Maps exhibition, where the Codex Mendoza (Bodleian Library MS. Arch. Selden. A. 1) was on display. Here, they were able to extend the conversation regarding the authorship, readership and linguistic referents of the pre-colonial Roll of New Fire versus the colonial era's Mendoza Codex.

New Publication: Kirstin Kennedy, Alfonso X of Castile-León: Royal Patronage, Self-Promotion and Manuscripts in Thirteenth-century Spain (Amsterdam University Press, 2019)
Alfonso X 'the Learned' of Castile (1252–1284) was praised in his lifetime as a king who devoted himself to discovering all worldly and divine knowledge. He commissioned chronicles and law codes and composed poems to the Virgin Mary, he gathered together Jewish scholars to translate works of Arab astrology and astronomy, and he founded a university of Latin and Arabic studies at Seville. Moreover, according to his nephew Juan Manuel, Alfonso was careful to ensure that 'he had leisure to look into things he wanted for himself'. The level of his personal involvement in this literary activity marks him out as an exceptional patron in any period. However, Alfonso's relationship with the arts also had much in common with that of other thirteenth-century European royal patrons, among them his first cousin, Louis IX of France. Like his contemporaries, he relentlessly used literary works as a vehicle to promote his royal status and advance his claim to the imperial crown. His motivation for the foundation of the university at Seville was arguably political rather than educational, and instead of promoting institutional learning during his reign, Alfonso preferred to direct the messages about his kingship in the lavish manuscripts he patronized to a restricted, courtly audience. Yet such was the interest of the works he commissioned, that those who could obtain copies did so, even if these were still incomplete drafts. Three codices traditionally held to have been copied for Alfonso in fact show how this learning reserved for the few began to filter out beyond the Learned King's immediate circle.

ARTES Coll & Cortés Travel Scholarship report: Pablo Ordás (PhD, Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 2017)
My name is Pablo Ordás and I was granted an ARTES Coll & Cortés Travel Scholarship to conduct research in the UK. Thanks to this scholarship I was able to spend three weeks (22/10/2018–10/11/2018) at The British Library, researching Spanish manuscripts closely related to my previous PhD research, dedicated to 'The Gothic Cloister in the Kingdom of León: Spaces, Destinies and Images'.
British Library, Add Ch 24807. Copyright: British Library
The British Library houses a small but very interesting collection of Spanish charters (Add Ch 24802–24815 & 24819) that date back from the reign of Alfonso IX of León (†1230) to a papal confirmation of Innocent VIII (†1492). Because of my previous research I was especially interested in the two confirmation of privileges granted by Alfonso XI, for different reasons: Add Ch 24805 preserves the lead seal of the king, something exceptional since most of the documents were stripped of their seals in the following centuries; Add Ch 24807 is a confirmation of previous privileges that were confirmed by the king's father, Fernando IV (†1312) and that date back to his grandfather Sancho IV (†1295). Remarkably, the first 9 lines of the latter document are a series of intitulationes that describe the original documents. Another interesting aspect is that this charter was given during the tutorship of the infantes don Pedro and don Juan, Alfonso XI's uncle that died in the Disaster of the Vega de Granada in 1319. The rarity of royal confirmations during the minority of age of the king and this first tutoría (1312–1319) make this document exceptional.
Detail of British Library, Add Ch 24807. Copyright: British Library
A real surprise came under the fold at the bottom of the parchment, where the name of Pedro Rendol is mentioned. Pedro Rendol is a somewhat obscure character that paid an important role in the rebellion of 1296 when infante don Juan el de Tarifa (†1319) and Alfonso de la Cerda (†1333) claimed the crowns of León and Castile respectively. Apparently don Juan was crowned at León, with the agreement of the clergy and the city council, thanks, among others, to Pedro Rendol. When the rebellion was suppressed and Fernando IV punished its most important leaders, Pedro Rendol's possessions were confiscated but he managed to remain a relevant player in Castilian politics. His presence in this royal charter, next to his former patron infant don Juan, proves it.
Add Ch 28406 is the testament of Doña Blanca de Portugal, abbess of the monastery of Las Huelgas de Burgos. I was interested in the fragments of a wax pendant seal that are still attached to the silk threads hanging from the document. The condition of wax seals such as this is generally worse than that of lead seals. This example no exception: the seal is broken and only the upper half is preserved.
Finally, I was able to work with a very remarkable manuscript, the Primera Partida by king Alfonso X (Ms Add 20787). The miniatures of this manuscript have been barely studied and only a monography from the 1970s (Juan Antonio Arias Bonet, Alfonso X el Sabio: Primera Partida según el manuscrito Add. 20.787 del British Museum, Valladolid, 1975) is dedicated to this exceptional book. The volume is illuminated with 26 miniatures, from capital letters (7) to vignettes (19) that are used as visual representations of the following tituli.
The Law Code of King Alfonso X ('el Sabio'), Primera Partida, British Library, Add 20787. Copyright: British Library
The book is usually related to the same workshop that illuminated the most famous of Alfonso's literary productions, the Cantigas de Santa María. However, some questions arise from a study of the manuscript's miniatures: no traces of the Cantigas' characteristic frames with royal arms are present in the British Library manuscript; illustrations related to the reigns of Alfonso X' (1252–1284) and his son Sancho IV (1284–1295), always depict the the king beardless, something that would become common under the reigns of Fernando IV (1295–1312) and Alfonso XI (1312–1350). Could this be a later manuscript that follows the aesthetic path of the Cantigas? A deeper study should be undertaken in order to answer this question. So far we can only attest to the importance of the volume's iconography and the close relationship between the miniatures and the text.
I am sure that these documents will make my research richer and I will be able to include this information in my future research. The charters related to Alfonso XI and Doña Blanca are of particular importance for the history of León cathedral.
To conclude, I am indebted to Dr. Tom Nickson from The Courtauld Institute for his support and guidance, and for organising the seminar Art, music and ceremony in Medieval Castile at Trinity College (Cambridge, 29/10/2018) while I was in the United Kingdom. Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to ARTES and Coll & Cortés for their generous support, without which this stay would have been impossible.

Kevin Forant and Tom Ziegler discuss building confidence and discipline through Hayastan Mixed Marti
Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) has often been referred to as the fasting growing sport in the world, as it has continued to rise in popularity. A passionate and dedicated MMA community can be found at Hayastan MMA Charlotte. They offer a variety of training options, for everyone from beginners to professional fighters. Regardless of skill level, everyone who trains at Hayastan finds an encouraging environment with a collective spirit of self-improvement and continued progress.
A tight knit group of instructors and students rallied to keep the school going after the passing of Founder, Sensei Paul Booe in 2015. Now instructor (and former student) Kevin Forant owns the school, and instructor Tom Ziegler runs the day-to-day operations. Forant, Ziegler, and instructor Tony Tan comprise the head coaching staff.
How has the transition been from student and pro fighter to instructor/owner?
Kevin: It's been natural. When I first started training with Paul, I told him that I wanted to learn good technique and then I wanted to pass it on to others. I was always a leader in class, and planned to open my own school at some point. Now I teach full time, as well as cornering and coaching fighters.
How long have you been involved with MMA?
Tom: I was a MMA fan first, and then started formally training in 2007 with Paul. I was working in finance and mortgages, but I didn't enjoy it. Eventually I told my wife that I wanted to focus on this as a career. She was surprised, but supportive—her support of the idea was key. And I made the jump-to doing this full time-in 2013.
Kevin: I've trained at Hayastan for ten years. I had no martial arts training prior to that.
Do you still compete professionally?
Kevin: The last time I competed in the cage was almost two years ago. I'm getting older. I'm 37 now, so I've let the competing go a little. I have another business and I have a family - a wife and two kids. She's very supportive and has been to every single one of my fights. But it's hard to take time away from those things. I'm sure even when I'm 45 and my career is long gone, I probably still won't want to admit retirement.
What kind of people train at the school?
Tom: We've got people who just want to stay in shape; maybe they're tired of fitness gyms or the same routine. They want to engage their minds as well as their bodies. Others are interested in the self-defense aspect. We also get people who are fans of the sport and want to learn the moves they've seen. And there are those people who want to compete and fight.
Kevin: Humans have a primal instinct to be able to face someone if they challenge you. MMA helps give you the confidence to do that. Occasionally, we've had a younger person who may be thinking they want to learn this so they can beat someone up. But once they start training, they realize they don't need to intimidate anyone else, because they now have enough self-confidence. They no longer feel like they have to down someone else in order to build themselves up.
Do you ever get students who are being bullied?
Kevin: We've had some single moms bring in their pre-teens or teenage sons who are lacking in a father figure. Not that we can replace a father, but we can help them with some things that fathers would teach their kids, such as confidence or self-defense. We see a change in them. At first, they were nervous, maybe they were even forced into it. But after a month or two, we see them go from making excuses not to train, to finding reasons to come more often.
How much of MMA's popularity is tied to the UFC?
Tom: It's become a lot more mainstream and popular since 2005 when "The Ultimate Fighter" show premiered. In the finale, two fighters fought for a spot in the UFC. That was the first time the UFC was on live TV, not PPV. It started to explode. Before that, it had a diehard following, but from then on there was a buzz created about the sport. The UFC created weight classes, rounds, more rules. It came to be regarded as an actual sport.
Kevin: The UFC is a big part of it because that's what most people see. They are the biggest promoter of the sport and the UFC attracts the best fighters from around the world. It's how most people are first introduced to MMA, and the growth of the UFC impacts the growth of
the sport.
What are the benefits for people involved with MMA training?
Tom: People can't help but develop physical benefits and mental benefits. You become more coordinated, agile, and greater focus. You learn how to perfect technique while you're fatigued. We've had people who've never played a sport, they come in like silly putty. They get mat burns and bruises, and aches and pains, but over time their body adapts. Their bodies become tougher, and the silly putty becomes more like chiseled stone.
Kevin: Traditional martial arts schools that teach karate or taekwondo tend to emphasize how they build confidence and discipline in kids. But with MMA, those same principles can be applied for adults. It's not too late. Confidence and self-discipline is developed through MMA. Things like coming to class and working out when you don't feel like it, eating right, constantly improving yourself. And being in an atmosphere with a lot of camaraderie helps.
The camaraderie is key, right?
Tom: That's a big part of it. You become part of a team, something bigger than yourself. It's like being part of a family. The bonds that are created through this shared experience is something that's hard to put into words, but it's very strong.
Tell us about the training you offer?
Kevin: People want to train where they can learn skills and techniques that are applicable to competing, even though only about 10% of our student base competes. Most people like to train like a fighter, even if they aren't interested in competing. They still want to use the same methods. We have strength and conditioning, grappling, and kickboxing/MMA classes, which includes striking. With striking, we also teach knees and elbows (on bags and pads) in addition to punches and kicks. Only people preparing for fights need intense sparring, so that is separate from normal classes.
What would you say to people who are nervous to try MMA?
Tom: Just know that everybody is here to help you get better. You're not going to be thrown to the wolves, and nobody is going to be pushed to do something they're not ready for.
How is MMA is different from what's often the stereotype?
Kevin: With any sport at a high level, it takes smart people. A football game play may look easy on TV, but there's a lot involved with drawing up a play. With MMA, it's not just throwing kicks and punches and seeing who wins. It's about finding and exploiting the weaknesses of others, and developing and applying your own strengths. It's like physical chess. There is always a move and a counter move, which is constant. Especially with grappling, you need to be thinking two or three moves ahead of your opponent.
Who can do this sport?
Tom: Anybody can do it. People think you have to lose weight or get in shape first, but you don't. You'll learn and get in shape as you go. Kevin and Tony and I look out for people who may be struggling with their conditioning. You can go at your own pace. All you have to do is communicate. If you need to take a break, that fine. If you're not comfortable with something you can just say, "I'll sit that one out." Don't let ego get in the way. The most important thing is to just keep showing up.

Charles D. Hyatt Jr. (February 28, 1908 – May 8, 1978) was a collegiate basketball player in the late 1920s.

The Syracuse, New York native played three seasons at University of Pittsburgh under coach Clifford Carlson (1927–30). An exceptional shooter, Hyatt scored then-outstanding 880 points throughout his college career. He was named an All-American three consecutive times, and additionally Helms Foundation Player of the Year in 1930, when he led the nation in scoring with 12.6 ppg.

After his college career, Hyatt played AAU basketball, and later coached in the Professional Basketball League of America. Hyatt was inducted into the Helms Athletic Foundation Hall of Fame, the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in its inaugural class in 1959, and the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame in its inaugural class of 2006. In 2019, Charley Hyatt was posthumously inducted into the Pitt Athletics Hall of Fame.

I was born and raised in Michigan. I moved to Hawaii with my husband to do my internal medicine residency, and we have since made Hawaii our home. I earned my bachelor's degree in biology, my master's degree in biology with a focus in cancer research, and my medical degree from Wayne State University. I did a surgical internship at St. John Hospital and Medical Center and a residency in internal medicine at the University of Hawaii. I also completed a critical care fellowship at the National Institutes of Health and a fellowship in pulmonary medicine at the Johns Hopkins University. I am a diplomat of the American Board of Internal Medicine, and I belong to the Society of Critical Care. I am board certified in internal medicine, pulmonary disease, and critical care. I am also a clinical instructor in the Department of Medicine at the University of Hawaii.
It became clear to me during my undergraduate studies and in graduate school that my calling was to work directly with patients rather than to pursue a career in medical research. During my internal medicine residency, critical care stood out for me as the specialty that would be most professionally rewarding for me, and it has proven to be so over the years. I currently serve as co-chairperson of Kaiser Permanente Hawaii's ethics committee, and I represent the Hawaii region on the Interregional Ethics Committee, which is made up of representatives from all of the Kaiser Permanente regions. I have published research on the properties and activities of tumor cells and on the effects on mortality of blood transfusion in the ICU. I contributed to an article that was published in the Internal Medicine Board Review. To keep up-to-date with developments in my field, I attend professional conferences and subscribe to several critical care journals. I am very pleased to be a part of the Hawaii Permanente Medical Group, which comprises a professional, well-trained group of practitioners who enjoy a strong collegial bond. My philosophy of care is to work with the critical care staff using a team approach in providing care that has been shown by current research to be most effective.
My family and I enjoy outdoor activities such as surfing and horseback riding. We also enjoy painting and playing music at home.


The Blackpool Council case involved a judicial review brought by a firm of solicitors who occupied a unit at an enterprise centre owned and operated by the Council.
The lease was due for renewal in June 2013. The firm was advised by Blackpool Council that the lease would not be renewed and that the basis of that decision was that the firm had brought a number of successful personal injury actions against the Council. The decision not to renew the lease was taken by a corporate assessment group to whom the Council had delegated the decision. Aggrieved at the decision, the solicitors sought to judicially review the decision of the Authority.
The local authority sought to take a preliminary point that the decision itself was notamenable to a challenge by judicial review, in that it was performing a purely private function in the context of a commercial relationship relating to a commercial premises.
• whether the challenge involved genuinely substantial public law challenges based on fraud, corruption, bad faith and improper motive.
In the Blackpool Council case the authority had published a set of selection criteria for each unit at the enterprise centre, which the firm met. On those facts it was determined that there was a sufficient public law element to render the decision amenable to challenge by judicial review.
The authority was under a duty not to exercise its responsibility for improper or immaterial purposes. There was no evidence before the Court that the authority had considered the firm rationally against the published tenants selection criteria.
As the sole reason for the decision was the intent to punish the tenant as a consequence of it engaging in actions against the Council, the Court found that the decision was susceptible to challenge and should be quashed.
The outcome of the judicial review was predictable; what is of more interest is the range of decisions made by public bodies that may be susceptible to challenge and judicial review.
This clearly prompts the need for decision makers in similar circumstances to make open and transparent decisions based on robust criteria, with the decision making process clearly recorded. Without this audit trail, any decisions will be subject to the risk of judicial review.

It has been almost a month since I have posted on here. I have been doing so many great things time just flies by. I have had no PT for a full month. I am still do the things that Joe taught me at the gym and continue to keep working. I am hoping to see improvement still in strength and endurance. I am hoping to see Joe this summer and show him what a great improvement I have made.
As the title says I have some new-found skills. I am very excited to share them with you all. The first takes a few pictures and explaining.
For a year before I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia I could not tie my right shoe at all. Some days I could do it. Most days I would tie my shoe and slide it on. After a few weeks at pt in 2012 I was able to once again bend enough to tie my shoe, but in my own way. I will show you.
This is how I tied my shoes before surgery.
This was a lot of bending of my back to do this. Let's say that Joe did not like it very much. I was happy that I could tie my shoe again. 🙂 Over the moon after not tying my shoe in a year. This is how I did it right up until surgery.
For six weeks I was not allowed to bend past 90 degrees so my lovely Mom or Dad tied my shoes. Thank you guys.
Well after going back to my old method the more flexible that I got I started tying my shoes the way I did before my hip bothered me. This is how.
Siting on a chair or the couch to tie them. Still bending my back and a little bit more at the hip.
Well Joe decided that I needed to learn a whole new way that would flex my hip more. Let's say that I was not very excited about this. It meant a lot more work on my part. I will show you the pics then explain.
This is my new way to tie my shoes. My right hip bends past 90 degrees every time I do this.
It is more work on my part because I now need to get down and up off the floor often. It has made my right leg stronger though. I can now get on the floor by using my right leg first. Great. That probably makes no sense. Well I am enjoying my new way. It is taking time to getting used to. I need to break my bad habits and remind myself to do it that way. I am happy that my hip is bending more and that it takes some of the stretches I would do away. It will become natural just like everything else.
Yup I said squatting! Joe had started teaching me to squat it helps bend the hip to 120 degrees. It is rough because it is something that I have never done in my life. I can get my hip to 120 degrees but as of right now I need to hold on to something.
Started by holding on. I can bend to 120 degrees doing this.
This pic is after weeks of practice my hip bends a little better when not wearing jeans. I can now squat at a students desk when I am teaching as long as I can balance on their desk. I have done it a couple of times without even thinking about it. It was great.
The next pic was only the second time I had tried this. I was able to hold it for about 30 seconds.
Squatting sort of. First real-time with out holding on. Look at that hip bend.
It is getting better every time that I do it. As it becomes easier it becomes natural and that excites me. Even before surgery this was something I could not do. My hip wouldn't even bend past 90 degrees no matter how hard I or Joe tried. What an improvement.
As the weeks and days go on I learn that I have many new skills that might seem simple but are a big deal to me. It can be something as simple as lifting my foot without my hand to put on my shoe. Or sitting through a movie at the theater not having to move because of pain or move at all. To climbing to stairs alternating feet and then coming back down the same way. That puts a smile on my face every single time. To knowing that I am returning to my "normal" whatever that should be. I am getting stronger ever day and I can see it. Just on February 25 I stood up off the floor with my right leg in the front with out holding on for the first time!! I was super impressed with myself.
I saw this sitting on the counter the other day and it brought a smile to my face.
You may ask why this brought a smile to my face. Well just about 7 months ago I was taking these every four hours just to make it through the day. I now might take them once a month. I am proud that I no longer need them. My pain is pretty much gone. I have muscle pain from teaching them how to work all over again. That is what brings the smile to my face.
Yes there are goals and skills I have not reached yet but I can see them in the near future. The major one that is going to take time is getting the rock out of my gait. I have what you call a reserve Trendelenburg gait or Trendelenburg lurch. It will take strengthen muscles in my right leg but I am getting there.
I always seem to think a lot when I am typing for this blog. But hay that is what it is for right. Life is always changing and I am seem to be ok with that now. Change used to be so hard for me to deal with. Yes it is still hard but I seem to deal with it better now. I am breaking a lot of old habits and forming new ones. I guess you can teach an old doge new tricks. HAHA. It may frustrate the heck out of me to have to change so much but it is ok. I am happy to do it as long as it is going to help. I am and have always been happy with who I am. I am also happy with where I am. I am getting the strength back and even more. Now that my right leg is working so much better I notice that my right arm might be able to be better. It might be time to return to OT. I know that has nothing to do with my hip.
I am more than happy that I had this done. It has given me my life back. Who ever knew. I am enjoying work at Wegmans again and teaching and love every day that I don't need to turn down a sub call. I can't wait to see what the future holds. Here is a trip to Hawaii in my near future, to hike Diamond Head. That goal has taken me far.
The title says it all. Life does continue. So many little things equal to many big things. This week showed me many different things.
Monday brought me another good workout. Still no real pain and I have been going since last Thursday. The five-hour shift at Wegmans treated me well. No extra pain like the last time. Once again what a difference a few weeks makes. I am happy that I had the guts to take that leap and work the 5 hour shift. It just showed me that yes I can do it and it will be OK. Today was one of my last PT visits. Many great things happened during PT today. First is I was able to squat better than I could on Saturday. I had been practicing. Still holding on well-doing it, but if I tell you that there was no way even holding on that I could do this before surgery you would be amazed how far I can do it now. Next my pt had me put on my Bioness and asked me to walk with it on. It is going to show you how much my hard work has paid of and what a difference the THR has made. I was walking with the Bioness and my PT noticed that I was walking faster than the Bioness could respond. My hip has let me increase the speed that I can walk. This made me smile I always thought I was going to be pokey. Now I am pokey only if I choose to be. One time after I stopped walking I looked over at my PT and he had a big smile on his face. I asked him what he was smiling at. He said that both of my feet were pointing forward. I told him that is what he had taught me to do and I worked hard to get it to do that. My right foot before surgery was pointed out at a 20 degree angle. Since before surgery and after I worked very hard to get it to point forward. It is now and I don't even have to think about it anymore. I was happy that he noticed. It was great that something so simple made him happy. Well for me it was not so simple. The day ended great.
Wednesday I weighed myself in and in almost a year I have lost 54 pounds!!! Very proud of myself. It was a lot of hard work and still working. When I look back and think how much work it was with a half dislocated hip and pain. It makes me even more proud that I did it. I went for another great workout today. I hit a couple of mile stones today. I went up and down the stairs 4 times. That equals half of the 99 stairs that I will have to hike up Diamond Head. 48 up and 48 down. I was working on the stairs for a surprise for my PT on Saturday. I will tell you more when that happens. Second major mile stone was that I did 2 miles on the elliptical in just over 30 minutes. Best distance yet. I am excited that all these new things are not causing me pain like they were in the past. It is an amazing feeling.
Friday was another great day. I taught again the first time since January 16. Today I was a kindergarten teacher. That is my favorite. The kids were amazing and it was so much fun. Half way through the day I posted this on Facebook. I have made it a half day so far with ABSOLUTELY NO PAIN. As I sit here typing this I have tears of joy running down my face. THIS IS AMAZING!!!! As the day came to an end I decided to sit on the floor with the kids. I sat on the floor for a good 15 minutes Indian style. That put a smile on my face that I was able to do that. A year ago it would have been possible for me to sit there but not Indian style and would have been a lot of work to get up and down. My PT and I decided to move our last visit to tomorrow so I could meet his family that I have leaned so much about. I was very excited. I felt great when I got home the only pain was back pain above my right hip. I took 2 ibuprofen and all was better. It was an amazing day. When I think about it, it was hard to believe that three weeks ago that I was in so much pain that I didn't want to move. Still sleeping with my ice pack at night but hoping to lose it soon. But I kinda like it now. The day ended great no real extra pain. Here is to Saturday.
Up early for my last PT visit. Well if you haven't figure it out yet I have been seeing my PT Joe since November at my home. When he left his job at the clinic I thought that it was pointless to start with a new pt that knew nothing about me. If this was my doctor I would follow him too. It was the BEST decision I could have made. Well I have been working with Joe for just over a year on and off, so I didn't but did want to say goodbye. I am ready for my life to move on and see what I can do on my own. Today Joe was moving my leg around and said that my hip was bending at 105 degrees. Nice. After some stretching, I had a surprise for Joe. I told him that I could go up the stairs WITHOUT holding onto railing. So up I went showing him. Yes it is easier with Bioness on but I can do it with it off. He was impressed. I had told him that I had been working very hard at it. It is not perfect but I can do it most of the time. I will keep practicing until it becomes natural for me just like my foot pointing forward. The second surprise I had for Joe was great too. Joe had been teaching me squat while hanging on to something. When I first did it a week ago. I would hit about 90 degrees before I had to stop. Well I worked very hard all week-long. I was able to do it today and bend my hip to 120 degrees which is what a normal hip should bend to. Even before surgery my hip no matter what we did would not go past 90 degrees. What a major improvement. I will take it. After a lot of hard work I got to meet Joe's lovely family. His wife is awesome and his two kids are great. They are very happy young boys. I enjoyed sitting on the floor with them playing with toys. Put a smile on my face. It was very nice to meet his family since I had heard so much about them. Finally time to say goodbye to Joe. 😦 First a picture.
This is my PT Joe. He has done amazing things with me. Thanks for everything.
As I sit here and type this I have thought about many things. I know that I can continue doing things on my own but know I always have help when I need it. My major thought that might seem weird is how strange it is to work and live without pain. Might seem crazy but I had gotten so used to the pain so to not have it bothers me some times. May seem weird but when you have lived with pain on and off for 10 years it becomes your normal, it is hard when that changes. Trust me I don't want the pain back ever. I love that my life is now becoming closer to my "normal". One day I will get there and will be happier than a pig in mud. As you can see life does continue after a THR at the age of 28. The light at the end of my tunnel is getting closer and closer.
I would like to thank everyone that is reading this blog. I hope that people are finding it helpful. There are many young people out there that need to hear the success stories. I hope mine has helped.

11 Fascinating Black History Sites in Philadelphia
January 17, 2022 May 17, 2022 / By Laura Longwell
From Old City to Germantown, there are lots of fascinating Black history sites in Philadelphia. Museums, churches, and other monuments offer insight into the important contributions African Americans have made to shaping the fabric of the city and the entire country.
Black activists, artists, religious leaders, and formerly enslaved people in search of basic freedoms have passed through Philadelphia and helped make the city what it is. See the sites around Philadelphia that are dedicated to sharing their stories.
President's House
Part of the open-air exhibit at the President's House
The President's House was occupied by George Washington and John Adams during their terms of office while Philadelphia was the temporary capital of the United States. Though the historical building no longer stands, an open-air structure in its footprint provides information about the house and the people who lived there.
Importantly, the exhibit at the President's House explores the paradox between the founding fathers fighting for freedom for some while owning other people in the shackles of slavery. It addresses the nine enslaved people Washington kept in the city and what their lives were like in the household, including those who attempted to escape.
Despite its name, the National Constitution Center goes well beyond information related to The Constitution. The museum features exhibits and activities related to the achievements of African Americans and to significant moments in the quest for equal rights.
Displays focus on pivotal Supreme Court cases–including Brown v. Board of Education and Dred Scott v. Sandford–and Constitutional amendments that helped establish civil rights. Visitors can also see a rare copy of the Emancipation Proclamation signed by President Abraham Lincoln and a copy of "A More Perfect Union," a speech delivered by then-Senator Barack Obama at the National Constitution Center.
Christ Church in Old City
One of the most visited sites in Philadelphia, Christ Church has welcomed many notable residents and visitors, including Presidents, signers of the Declaration of Independence, and other figures whose stories are well known. A visit to Christ Church highlights the stories of other parishioners who have often been overlooked by history—both the enslaved people and the free people of color who worshiped and were baptized here.
One such story is that of Absalom Jones. An enslaved person who attended the congregation, Jones later bought his freedom and founded the first African American Episcopal Church nearby. As its leader, Jones was ordained by Christ Church as the first Black priest of the Episcopal Church.
Cliveden
Bedroom in the 18th-century Cliveden mansion
Built in 1767, Cliveden is probably most well-known for its role as part of the Battle of Germantown which raged around the estate in 1777. A tour of the home goes well beyond the American Revolution and deep into the stories of the Chew family who owned Cliveden for seven generations and the enslaved Africans who built the family's fortune.
Research into over 200,000 historical Chew family documents has revealed lots of details about the lives of enslaved workers and indentured servants on the Chews' plantations around the Mid-Atlantic as well as their properties in Philadelphia and Germantown. Some details are included in tours, and the exhibits around the property are regularly reinterpreted and expanded as new information comes to light.
Mother Bethel AME

Mother Bethel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church was founded by Bishop Richard Allen in 1794. Born as an enslaved worker owned by the Chew family (though not at the Cliveden estate), Rev. Allen wanted a self-reliant congregation where Black Philadelphians could worship without being subject to segregation by White church members.
As the mother church of the first Black denomination in America, visiting the beautiful building is a top thing to do for lovers of history. It is located on the oldest piece of land in the country continuously owned by Black Americans.
Mother Bethel was a stop on the Underground Railroad and welcomed abolitionists such as Frederick Douglass and Lucretia Mott. Today, its stained-glass windows, underground tomb, and artifacts regularly draw visitors to hear the story of the church that remains such an integral piece of early African American history.
African American Museum in Philadelphia
The African American Museum in Philadelphia is the first museum in a major US city focused on the heritage and culture of Black Americans. It goes beyond the expected, using art and artifacts to tell the story of African Americans in the Philadelphia area and around the country. Exhibits cover everything from the contributions of African Americans in the early history of the US to civil rights, the Negro baseball league, and art.
In addition to its sizable permanent collection of tools, household items, and ceremonial objects, the African American Museum features the Jack T. Franklin Photography Collection. With over 500,000 negatives and photographs, the Franklin Collection chronicles events and milestones in the city's African American community.
Fair Hill Burial Ground

At over 300 years old, Fair Hill Burial Ground is one of the most historical sites in Philadelphia. It was founded in 1703 by the Quakers and has been used as an active burial ground on and off over the centuries.
Quakers were active in anti-slavery activities dating back to the late 1600s, so it's not a surprise that Fair Hill is the final resting place for many people who were strong in their abolitionist views.
Among the most notable abolitionists buried at Fair Hill are Lucretia Mott and Robert Purvis who were both well-known speakers and activists. Mott, the founder of the Philadelphia Female Anti-Slavery Society, helped runaway slaves from Maryland and Delaware who had reached Philadelphia. Purvis, a free man of mixed race, was part of the American Anti-Slavery Society and helped numerous people seeking freedom, which ultimately earned him the title of President of the Underground Railroad.
The graves of Mott and Purvis are part of the Second Saturday tours at Fair Hill, which tell the story of the area's history and the significance of the people buried there.
Johnson House Historic Site
Johnson House and its historical marker
Located in Germantown, the Johnson House Historic Site is one of the most fascinating Black history sites in the city. Built in 1768, the stone home looks today much as it did in colonial times.
The Johnsons were devout Quakers and offered their home as a station along the Underground Railroad, a pivotal spot for formerly enslaved people making their way further north to stations in Montgomery County, Bucks County, and beyond.
Tours of the Johnson House include information about the family, the Quakers and the anti-slavery movement, those who sought freedom here, and the people who risked their lives to help.
Belmont Mansion and Underground Railroad Museum
Belmont Mansion in Fairmount Park is another one of the historic Underground Railroad sites in the city. The mansion was home to Judge Richard Peters, a well-connected, prominent judge in the colonial era who counted George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and other famous people among his friends. Judge Peters was also the first non-Quaker member of the abolition movement in the area.
An opponent of the Fugitive Slave Act, Judge Peters bought slaves in order to free them and set up his home—which was then on the outskirts of Philadelphia—as a stop on the Underground Railroad. With the assistance of Cornelia Wells (a free Black woman who lived on the property) and others, formerly enslaved people could integrate into Philadelphia society or continue to move further north.
The Underground Railroad Museum at Belmont Mansion provides information about the site's history and the story of Cornelia Wells and others. Tours are available several days a week.
Black history murals
Staircases and Mountaintops: Ascending Beyond the Dream by Willis Humphrey and Jonny Buss
With thousands of murals and public artworks, the city has lots of pieces dedicated to famous and influential African Americans that are worth seeing.
In North Philly, on the side of the recreation center bearing his name, a mural honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. shows his march from Selma to Montgomery Alabama. Not far away near Fair Hill burial ground, Harriett Tubman, Rev. Richard Allen, and others who were active in the Underground Railroad are memorialized for their important work.
Musicians like The Roots (512 S. Broad Street), John Coltrane (29th and Diamond), and Marian Anderson (740 S. 17th) are also honored with murals for their musical and cultural contributions locally and on a national scale. From the mural in Fishtown of Sixers' Matisse Thybulle to baseball legend Jackie Robinson at 2803 N. Broad Street, athletes are also among the many people acknowledged on the city's walls.
Octavius V. Catto Memorial
Statue of Octavius V. Catto at City Hall
One of the most influential African Americans in Philadelphia in the 19th century, Octavius V. Catto was a teacher, athlete, and civil rights activist who fought for voting rights and the desegregation of streetcars. On October 10, 1871—the first election day after the 15th Amendment was passed, guaranteeing Black men the right to vote—Catto was assassinated near his home on South Street.
The Octavius V. Catto memorial on the south side of Philadelphia City Hall depicts Catto in a powerful stride toward the ballot box. The pillars behind him represent a streetcar and illustrate his accomplishments and contributions to the city.

New Launch: The All-New Omega Speedmaster 'Silver Snoopy Award' 50th Anniversary
by Deep Majumdar
The new Omega Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary is all about celebrations. The watch pays tribute to NASA, the Apollo 13 mission, and most importantly, the Silver Snoopy Award presented to Omega by NASA.
Snoopy, the white beagle ended up on the Omega Speedmaster thanks to one of the most popular incidents in the history of manned space missions that took place a little over 50 years ago. The story of Snoopy being associated with NASA space missions began during the Apollo 10 mission. The Apollo 10 was essentially a dress rehearsal for the Apollo 11 mission.
The Command Module of the Apollo 10 mission was named "Charlie Brown" and the Lunar Excursion Module was named "Snoopy". These were not mock names. In fact, these were the actual names of the space vehicles. The "Snoopy" name was chosen as the Lunar Excursion Module was meant to 'snoop around' the moon to discover good landing spots for the Apollo 11. Quite witty, I would say.
For those who do not know, the Peanuts comic strip, of which characters such as Charlie Brown and Snoopy were a part of, was a mega hit in 1969.
The Silver Snoopy Award
the story behind the Silver Snoopy Award is simple yet fascinating. In order to appreciate the efforts and hard work put in by the support staff of all the space missions, NASA came up with the glorious and noble idea of the Silver Snoopy Award. The award is presented by astronauts and it says the following words – "In Appreciation' For professionalism, dedication, and outstanding support that greatly enhanced space flight safety and mission success."
The Story Of Apollo 13
What exactly happened during the Apollo 13 mission? Read on. The mission took place during an era when the overall interest in lunar missions had begun to somewhat fade away, but something very interesting happened at 55:54:53 or at the fifty-five hours – fifty-four minutes – 53 seconds time mark. There were two oxygen tanks in the Service Module and one of them exploded during routine maintenance.
The astronauts as well as the ground support crew were forced to think of various creative ideas to get the astronauts back home safe and sound. This included an idea of using the Lunar Excursion Module as if it was a lifeboat. The Lunar Excursion Module and the Command Module remained connected to each other as both the spacecraft looped around the Moon and were set to a trajectory that led them back to Earth. Nobody knew at that point in time that this will become the single most talked-about use of a wristwatch chronograph in the history of wristwatches.
The astronauts used their Omega Speedmasters to time a crucial and life-saving 14-second mid-course firing of the Lunar Excursion Module's engine to correct their trajectory back to Earth. This was a huge deal as the rocket engine of the LEM was not meant to do such a thing. It was meant to control the descent on the moon's surface.
The Apollo 13's command module along with the whole mission crew landed merely a mile from the intended destination point and just a little over three nautical miles from the recovery ship named 'Iwo Jima'.
In 1970, in order to acknowledge Omega's role in this daredevil rescue operation, NASA astronauts who were in the Apollo 13 mission awarded the watchmaker the Silver Snoopy Award.
The All-New Omega Speedmaster 'Silver Snoopy Award' 50th Anniversary
The new 50th anniversary watch is launched in a rather classic Speedmaster-esque stainless steel 42 mm case. There are blue accents to be found on the bezel, hands, hour markers, and of course, the Omega insignia. Oh, and the strap is also blue.
A closer look will also let you spot the iconic Snoopy illustration in the small seconds sub dial of the new watch. However, the most interesting feature of this launch is that unlike the previous Silver Snoopy watches, this one here is not a limited edition. Yes, you read that right.
Honest Opinion
The last Silver Snoopy watch released was a limited edition back in the year 2015. It featured a white dial with a luminous Snoopy in an iconic "sleeping on top of the doghouse" posture. Viewers coiuld see a thought bubble sprouting from Snoopy's head that echoed the famous line from the 1995 blockbuster film, 'Apollo 13', "Failure is not an option!" Furthermore, it contained text reading "What could you do in 14 seconds?", a direct reference to the 14-second last minute tactical move made by the astronauts of Apollo 13 mission to use the lunar module's rocket engine to get back to Earth.
The dial of the new Omega Speedy is silver and is laser-engraved with Ag925. Ag925 is essentially Sterling Silver, which is, by definition 92.5% pure silver. The dial includes three more blue sub dials. The sub dial at the nine o'clock position features a 'Snoopy' in the form of an embossed silver medallion that carries the words "50th Anniversary".
In a way, this is the most direct tribute the watch offers to the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission. Snoopy is presented in the exact same style as it is in the silver pin that NASA astronauts present to award recipients.
The watch also offers blue PVD hour markers as well as hands. The case back is something that is completely new and rather cool looking. It features an animation of the earth, the moon, and lastly, Snoopy himself who is inside a white Command and Service Module or CSM.
The Magic Of The Case Back
Omega has created something truly magical and fascinating. They are calling it the 'magic hand'. This essentially allows Snoopy and CSM to 'move'. How? When the chronograph is activated, Snoopy and his CSM travel over to the far end of the moon. This is, once again, a direct reference to the trip taken by the Apollo 13 astronauts.
The Earth disk rotates once every minute. This is in coordination with the timepiece's small seconds hand which symbolizes the rotation of the Earth itself. Those with keen eyes will also find the quote, "Eyes on the Stars."
The new Omega timepiece is backed up by the METAS-certified Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861 by Omega. It features a blue ceramic or zirconium dioxide bezel. Just like the earlier 2015 Silver Snoopy watch, this watch comes fitted to a nylon fabric strap, only this time in blue along with white stitching on the sides.
It is hard to believe that it has already been 50 years since NASA awarded Omega with the Silver Snoopy Award. This watch not only does absolute justice to the Silver Snoopy Award, but it also upholds the playfulness of the very idea of putting a cartoon beagle on such a prestigious award itself.

1. Confirm all your vendors, such as your florist, band, limos, etc.
2. Drop off all your essentials at your venue — your favors, your place cards, your cake cutter, your cake topper, etc.
3. Take a couple of days to really pamper yourself — your hair, a spa visit, a manicure and pedicure. Just really relax.
4. Make sure everything is packed and ready to go for your honeymoon. The last thing you want to do is be packing the day of the wedding.
5. Make sure all your vendors are paid well in advance. You don't want to be carrying around money the day of your wedding.


Quality assurance refers to all the policies and processes directed to ensure the maintenance and enhancement of quality in education. It is the systematic review of institutional capacity, infrastructure and human resources to ensure that agreed and acceptable level of quality exists in the education provided by Education and Training Providers (ETPs).
Education and Training Providers are the main custodians of quality within their institutions. Much as it is the responsibility of the BQA to safeguard the public interest in sound standards of education qualifications, ETPs have the primary responsibility for the quality of their programmes and their assurance.
Given the fundamental principle of quality assurance that institutions should be responsible for driving internal quality assurance processes, it is imperative for all registered ETPs to establish Internal Quality Assurance Committees (IQAC). Since quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC will become a part of an institution's management system and work towards realising the goals of quality improvement, enhancement, and sustenance.
General Education (GE) is mandated to register and accredit Education and Training Providers (ETPs) within the GE sub system. These are ETPs from Early Childhood, Primary, and Secondary (Junior and Senior).

Anyway, Cathy Rose Garcia, formerly of Korea Times and now of ABS-CBN News wrote an article on her good friend's latest accomplishment. It is appropriately titled "Filipina Makes Wave in Korea". Jasmine is definitely making waves and we all couldn't wait for the movie to be shown in its regular run.
Jasmine Lee and Yoo Ah In as mom and son in the movie Wandeugi or Punch.
imho – she looks young for a Mom role.
Yay for Jasmine! More power!

I named Wizkid superstar before he became one- Banky W brags
Banky W, a singer, actor, and director, has spoken up about how he envisioned Wizkid as a "superstar" before he became one.
"I am happy of what Wizkid is achieving," he remarked during a radio interview uploaded on Instagram. I named his debut album 'Superstar' because I wanted people to think of him as a superstar rather than the up-and-coming performer he was at the time."
"That is why investing in people is a wonderful idea. We played a minor role in their early days, but look at what he (Wizkid) is now accomplishing for others. Finding one's voice as an artist is crucial. Anyone can adopt anything, but one should strive to be the best version of oneself. That's what I've found to be effective."
Asked why he shut down his record label , he answered: "I think that was the best thing for us. I think we had done the label part and the majority of those who were under the label found their feet in the industry when they were with us. As far back as 2016, I knew I didn't have the energy for managing an active label. A year after I shut down the record label, I focused more on working with corporate clients.''
