Hebes can be the most unnoticed plant, but the most widely grown in gardens. The evergreen shrubs have one of the best flower colours in the garden. Hebes, commonly known as evergreen veronicas, considered very easy to grow and maintain, and make that spectacular splash of colour for containers, tubs or a great fill in plant for the garden.
The best thing about Hebes is that with so many different types, there will be one variety that will meet your garden requirements. Hebes range from low growing groundcover shrubs to the taller shrubs and come in all types of foliage and flower colours. Hebes are a gardeners delight and have a lot to offer to any garden.
The flowers of the Hebe plant can be in a range of colours of white to purple, the foliage can also be variegated in green to purple.
Hebes can be planted in the garden for border filling, or in containers. It is suggested to pick Hebes with the planting location in mind. Low growing ones can be planted in borders for filling or areas like rock gardens, etc. If planting in containers, try the smaller growing Hebes as they last longer and very easy to care for.
Hebe addenda Emma is a popular favourite as its flower colour is a soft but electric purple / pink in short clusters. It has glossy dark green, lance shaped leaves, and a bushy yet compact habit.
Hebe addenda Nikka has one of the most intense deep pink flower shows that will be the talk of the garden. Flowers seen in a red and pink colour and dazzling against the glossy green, lance shaped leaves. Hebe Nikka is another perfect bushy, compact growing Hebe.


Web 2.0 is a trend in the use of World Wide Web technology and web design that aims to facilitate creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users. These concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies (the practice of catgorising content through tags). Although the term suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an update to any technical specifications, but to changes in the ways software developers and end-users use the internet.
This is a free and easy web site development tool, like google sites, to help you quickly and easily create a web site for your classroom or personal purposes.

Ella Young
(1867–1956). Irish American writer Ella Young is most famous as a collector and chronicler of Irish folklore. Her books, written mostly for young people, are noted for their accurate reproduction of the speech patterns and cadence of the simple Irish people among whom she spent the early years of her life.
Ella Young was born on December 26, 1867, in Fenagh, County Atrim, Ireland. At the age of three, she moved with her family to Limerick, in the southwest of the Ireland, where she was greatly influenced by the folk beliefs of some of the locals. Although deeply religious as a child, she was fascinated by the tales of banshees, sprites, giants, and other creatures from Irish legend that she heard from her neighbors. As a student, Young studied law, political economics, and history at Royal University of Ireland. In her adulthood, she moved to Dublin and became involved in the growing Celtic Renaissance and Irish nationalist movements, but she never lost her interest in Irish mythology. She learned the Gaelic language and traveled among the peasants of rural Ireland, gathering myths and tales of folklore. This research would serve as the basis for both her literary and academic careers that would follow. Her early books, including The Coming of the Lugh (1909), Celtic Wonder- Tales (1910), and The Weird of Fionavar (1922), all dealt with richly textured world of Irish myths and legends.
The conflict between the Irish nationalists and England took the lives of many of her friends and colleagues, and in 1925 Young left Ireland completely, immigrating to the United States. There she taught Celtic mythology at the University of California, Berkeley, for many years and continued her writing career. Her first book published in the U.S., The Wonder Smith and His Son (1927), not only continued her interest in folklore but also marked the beginnings of a truly distinctive style. Young retells stories almost exactly as she heard them, showing a keen ear for dialogue. The tales are fast-moving and entertaining and are filled with humor and suspense.
Young continued this formula in two more books for children: The Tangle-Coated Horse (1929) and The Unicorn with Silver Shoes (1932). In later years, Young published several books of poetry and Flowering Dusk (1945), her memoirs. This latter book is more valuable for the insights it gives into the lives of noted Irish intellectuals and nationalists of the day, such as William Butler Yeats and Seamus O'Sullivan, than for its literary merits. Though quite popular in their day, most of the works of Young have not endured, being seen as a bit too romantic for present-day tastes. However, all her books contain an eye for telling and magical detail and a rich Irish voice that make them worthy of attention. Young died on July 23, 1956, in Oceano, California.

Reforming Japan's Government Bond-financed
Social Security System by Overcoming "Silver Democracy"
Japan's social security system is entirely supported by the annual issuance of
government bonds, and the scale of these bond issues is expected to increase
continuously in the future. The social security funds which should provide a reserve
against the peak of the aging of Japan's population in the first half of the 2040s have already begun to be accessed, and there is a possibility that they could be depleted
in around 20 years. Following the depletion of these funds, it will be necessary to
depend on additional issuance of government bonds for the same amount as had
previously been withdrawn from the funds each year. The recognition of this
possibility has the potential to undermine confidence in Japanese government bonds.
In order to avoid this situation and ensure that social security funds are maintained
until 2050, beyond the peak period of the aging of the nation's population, it will be
essential to reduce current pension benefits. This will undoubtedly be difficult in a
"silver democracy," in which elderly citizens possess considerable political power.
However, if those elderly citizens were to be made sufficiently aware of the high
degree of risk inherent in a pension structure in which benefits are dependent on the
issuing of government bonds, it would not be impossible to reach a consensus
regarding the stabilization of the pension system by reducing benefits. Conscientious efforts to ensure that the public is thoroughly aware of the risk in the current pension system will be an absolute precondition for the realization of such a consensus. To
this end, it will be necessary to establish an independent organization to conduct
accounting audits of public pension insurance, following the example of the U.S.
Financial Management Service which publishes the annual Statement of Social
Insurance.

Home Entertainment SA's Weekend Top 10 (8 to 10 May)
SA's Weekend Top 10 (8 to 10 May)
If you still haven't seen robot men or skydiving cars in action, you are not alone. Many still flock to the movies for those experiences. But there's something for you Segway fans too…
Avengers: Age Of Ultron is still taking the lead at the local box office, as it is everywhere else. The sequel still lags behind its predecessor, but that's the domestic (US) box office picture. The team of superheroes are more popular in their second visit to foreign markets, which at this rate might still push the sequel past the original's earnings. If that happens, it may be a first for such a large blockbuster.
Speaking of large earners, Fast & Furious 7 remains near the top of the pack, refusing to budge. It may still end up as the biggest earner of the year and at $1.4 billion worldwide is already the fourth-biggest grossing movie ever. In fact, it just needs another $100 million to dethrone The Avengers from its third spot.
Speaking of third, next on the local chart is Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, the sequel to Kevin James' fluffy comedy about an overweight mall security guard who saves the day and gets the girl. Now he's in Vegas for something and will probably have to save the day again.
At number four and dropping one spot from its debut last week, Get Hard is nonetheless staying around and giving local audience a dose of Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart's colourful comedy.
The fifth spot is a movie called Somer Son, another entrant from the local Afrikaans movie industry. It's a comedy about a married couple whose mundane lives and failing relationship are reinvigorated by a a series of mishaps in the tropics.
Number six is The Duff, a sharp teen comedy about the less attractive girl in school. It's been doing well all round, but here it dropped two spots.
Making a surprise leap upwards is Far From The Madding Crowd, an adaptation of a popular Victorian-era romance novel. It clearly struck a chord with some South Africans, as the film debuted at tenth last week and has since moved up three spots to number seven!
Number eight makes space for Yellow Bird, an animation for the kids. It's about an orphaned city bird who accidentally ends up in a flock migrating to Africa.
Cinderella, the live-action remake of the classic Disney animation, sits at number nine, dropping four spots since last week, That is a lot, but it is also the oldest movie currently on the local charts and is reaching the end of its shelf life.
Finally, number ten is the arrival of Child 44, a thriller about child murders in Stalin's Soviet Union.
This week we say goodbye to French Toast, Run All Night, Book of Life and Home.
Fast & Furious 7 is the biggest earner at the local box office with over R68 million. Yet last week it was R71 million, so this new figure is probably a mistake…
01. AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON (incl. 3D & Imax)
02. FAST & FURIOUS 7
03. PAUL BLART: MALL COP 2
04. GET HARD
05. SOMER SON

Axl Rose performed his second show with AC/DC on the Rock Or Bust tour in Seville, Spain on May 10 and video from the event surfaced online.
The band delivered the same 22-song set at Estadio de La Cartuja that they presented at the tour's opener in Lisbon, Portugal on May 7 with Rose, who stepped in to assist the band in Brian Johnson's absence due to the singer's deteriorating hearing.
Seville marked the second stop of a European tour by the Australian rockers, following which Rose would rejoin Guns N' Roses for a summer stadium tour of North America.
Check out the No. 9 hennemusic story of 2016 on AC/DC here.


Do you remember what you did last summer? Neither do we. But the music sure was dope, rolling out several sacred summer anthems from albums like Magna Carta … Holy Grail (July 2013) and Born Sinner (June 2013), while finding Yeezus (June 2013) along the way. The only thing missing was some authentic music made in the Motor City.
Put on this newly released mid-tempo R&B jam at your neighborhood barbecue and let the summer fun unfold. File under: "groove music." Out this summer. Available on iTunes.
Allandra Bulger originally thought her stage name Insite The Riot was too "abrasive." But then she found meaning in the "revolution in our thinking" (RIOT). And suddenly everything made sense.
Look for her to roll out music from her new album, Girl Meets Beat, this summer–but until then, experience your own musical riot with our playlist favorite, "Keep it Moving."
Rapper Clifton Perry, (that's Mr. Cliffnote to you!), is on to something good with his gangsta rap style that doesn't hold back on the gritty details of living in the "Dirty D." Before adding him to your music queue, see him live at Midtown's The Old Miami June 26.
On Chris "Volcano" Fortson's Graffiti Symphony (out this month), chaos is cut with class. Fresh off his Outstanding Hip-Hop MC Detroit Music Award, Fortson-with the backing of his versatile band, The New Radio Standard-is able to seamlessly switch from hip-hop mayhem to Motor City blues. Meaning: verbally outspoken, lyrically creative and nationally outstanding (VOLCANO).

Poor, pitiful them
Arkansas Times Staff
There is a movement in America, financed by the radical rich, to eliminate all taxes on wealth and income from wealth. If it succeeds, the non-rich, the people who sweat for a living, will have to pay more in taxes to make up the difference.
Arkansas's richest residents are doing their part to load more of the tax burden on their less fortunate neighbors. The Farm Bureau of Arkansas, the Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce and Associated Industries of Arkansas are running advertisements calling for permanent and total repeal of the estate tax (which they call, dishonestly, the "death tax"). Above a picture of a pair of models in overalls and work gloves, the headline says, "Family-owned businesses and farms stand to lose 55% of all assets when passing down from one generation to the next."
The truth is that most estates pay no tax at all. The estate tax is among the fairest of all taxes, affecting only those with the greatest ability to pay. It applies only to estates worth more than $1.5 million, or $3 million for couples, and according to Citizens for Tax Justice, the top rate is 39 percent, not 55. Less than one percent of Arkansans — the superrich — pay any estate tax. No family farm, in Arkansas or anywhere else, has ever been lost because of the tax. Repeal means that workers who don't make a living wage will pay more in taxes so that the Waltons, the Tysons and the Dillards can pay less.
Could have been worse
Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist will be remembered most fondly for what he was not — a right-wing extremist like Justice Antonin Scalia and Justice Clarence Thomas, the sort beloved by the Federalist Society and President Bush. Even so, the Rehnquist court invalidated much progressive legislation — regarding campaign finance, violence against women, protection for Americans with disabilities, age discrimination, the people's right to sue. And, of course, it took the selection of a president away from the people and into its own hands. Had Rehnquist voted the other way in that case, he'd be remembered as a great chief justice.
But the Rehnquist court did not go as far as the ultra-right wants to go in strengthening the rights of the government against the rights of the individual. Roe v. Wade still stands. The court limited the government's right to execute juveniles and the mentally retarded. It struck down laws criminalizing same-sex relationships.
Probably the best we can hope for from John Roberts, the president's nominee to succeed Rehnquist, is that he'll be no worse. If he's a soulmate of Thomas and Scalia, the harm he could do is almost unimaginable. And only the Senate can save us.

Get foreclosure help from the NID-Housing Counseling Agency (NID-HCA).
Receive free foreclosure and mortgage assistance from The National Association of Real Estate Brokers-Investment Division, Inc., Housing Counseling Agency (NID-HCA). This is a national, non-profit, HUD approved agency that was created to help address the enormous need of homeowners across the country who may be facing a foreclosure filing. They provide numerous services, resources and aid to families across the nation. The non-profit will administer numerous programs that focus on the historically under served urban, rural, and suburban minority populations. However people of all income, ages and races can receive foreclosure help.
They can assist all individuals and families that have housing needs. Almost all of the foreclosure assistance they provide is free of charge to the borrower. The NID Housing Counseling Agency employs numerous real estate professionals and housing counselors, most of which are from non-profit companies. In addition, if for some reason the organization can't meet your particular need, they also partner with numerous other charities, government agencies, law firms, and other non-profit groups and can refer homeowners to these agencies or other government programs.
The organization can also provide numerous ways for homeowners to communicate and get information. Counselors are available at numerous office locations around the country, and can be contacted via e-mail, telephone, confidential fax on demand, and they even offer a TDD service for the hearing impaired. In addition they even offer Spanish and Cantonese housing counselors at each location.
Mortgage and foreclosure counseling is always confidential. Homeowners can decide upon either one-on-one counseling and/or a group session or seminar.
Does the NID-HCA provide mortgage help?
Yes. NID-HCA certified mortgage counselors are available at all locations to help you in reducing your interest rate, lowering principal, extending repayment terms, and overall they will help make your monthly mortgage payment more affordable. Counselors are located in communities around the nation, and they are just a phone call always and are available to meet with you in person.
How does the foreclosure assistance program work?
The housing counselor that you will work with at The National Association of Real Estate Brokers-Investment Division, Inc., Housing Counseling Agency (NID-HCA) will contact your bank, lender, or mortgage servicer on your behalf. They will negotiate and explore all possible solutions with the lender in order to find a solution that will benefit both parties. Any agreement that the counselor wants to make with your lender will also need to be approved by the homeowner, so you will be involved in the decision making process as well.
If it is decided that a loan workout is possible, the mortgage counselor will coordinate and formalize the agreement. They will work closely with you and assist with filling out any applications or forms that may be required by the mortgage servicer or lender to move forward. The most common solution to a mortgage crisis will be a loan modification, reduction in interest rate, or the homeowner may need to enter into some other assistance program.
In addition to the foreclosure counseling, free legal advice and assistance is offered to homeowners who are undergoing or close to foreclosure. Legal Services are available for free and can benefit all qualified NID-HCA clients who receive mortgage and/or foreclosure related counseling. Attorneys that are part of the NID-HCA Legal Services team will partner with the Housing Rights Advocates Team, and together these two parties will work closely with NID-HCA mortgage counselors to reach the best results for the client.
To learn more about your the foreclosure assistance program, dial 877-964-3422 more more information or to apply.

Q: MooTools slide jumps around in wrapping div I'm using a slide effect for 'closing' a div, which works fine, except before sliding, it jumps diagonally in its wrapping div, next to a floating div that's above it. Making it look ugly...
This illustrates exactly what I'm talking about: http://jsfiddle.net/ELxPF/
When the floated div is not floated, all is well, so it has something to do with the float. I think the wrapper that is applied to the non-floating div when the slide effect is initiated, does not do clear: both; or something to that effect, causing it to leap diagonally.
What's the best way to resolve this, retaining the floatability of the floating div - and preferably without using extra wrapper elements?

A: I suggest you  use .dissolve() instead.
$('slide').addEvent('click', function () {
    $('two').dissolve()
});

DEMO
And then you can use .reveal() to bring it back.
$('slide').addEvent('click', function () {
    $('two').dissolve();
});
$('one').addEvent('click', function () {
    $('two').reveal();
});

Lisbon has been probably one of my favourite trips this year. If you're planning to visit the Portuguese capital, you can check my blog/vlog on what to do in Lisbon. As you will see, there is plenty to do! However, if you're staying for some time, it's worth to try a few day trips from Lisbon.
Cabo de Roca, alas the end of the world!
You can watch the video and read the blog – or choose one of the them, although the 2 complement each other!
Sintra is a town around 40 minutes away from Lisbon. You can go there by train from Rossio Square station in Lisbon. Sintra is on a hill and historically it was the place where Portugal's kings went to spend the summer and escape Lisbon's heat. You will feel that it's cooler, so bear in mind to bring more clothes with you. You will want to wear trainers too or comfortable shoes because there is a lot of walking.
Sintra is a very touristic town. The centre is very small and all around it there are castles and estates to visit, as you can see in the map. Although most people, like us, do a 1 day trip, I would recommend to spend at least 2 days if you plan to visit all.
We decided to visit 2 places in Sintra: Quinta da Regaleira and Palacio da Pena.
The Pena Palace was the royal residence and today is the most famous and iconic building in Sintra, and possibly of all Portugal. For this reason we didn't want to miss it. The palace is beautiful and colorful like a fairy-tale castle. However, I think that the best part is the garden. We walked all the way up to Cruz Alta (High Cross). It's a 20 minute walk and all up a hill but it's really worth it. It's the highest point in Sintra and the view is spectacular.
Most visitors don't go all the way up there, which was lucky for us and unfortunate for them!
Quinta da Regaleira is possibly not the most famous attraction in Sintra, but it should be! It was AMAZING and one of the best places I have ever visited. Quinta means "estate" and Regaleira was the name of the family that owned the place. However, the most interesting place is not the estate itself, but the park.
The park is like wonderland. You will find towers, dark tunnels, secret passages, underground lakes, a labyrinth, a waterfall, and an initiation well on the style of the Templars. We had a lot of fun exploring and playing around and I absolutely recommend to everyone NOT to miss this place.
Watch the video at the bottom to see more!
Sintra is a small town but the places you want to visit are not necessarily at walking distance. Also, the town is built on a hill and most roads don't have a pavement, which makes it dangerous to walk. You can easily reach by foot the Palacio National de Sintra, right in the town centre, and Quinta da Regaleira, which is a 5 minute walk.
To see everything else, though, you will have to take a bus. There is a bus that goes around Sintra and stops at all major places of interest. I recommend to take it from the Palacio National or from the train station because you have more chances of getting on.
When we arrived at the train station, there were too many people and we decided to walk. We reached Quinta da Regaleira and then decided to take the bus from there to go to Palacio da Pena. Except that the bus didn't stop. It was already too full. So in the end we walked back and took it from the town centre. Other people that were with us stayed there waiting for the second bus, and we watched their exasperation when the bus didn't stop again. So you are advised!
Another thing to consider is that the last bus runs at 8pm. We enjoyed our stay at Palacio de Pena so much that wanted to stay as much as possible and ended up taking the very last bus! It was starting to get dark, so walking down the hill wouldn't have been great. The return ticket is €5.50 (half the prize of the ubiquitous tuk-tuks!).
Belém is a district west of Lisbon. The tram 28, famous for being the most ancient tram in the world, can get you there. However we opted for the train because it takes 10 minutes instead of 30 and because the tram 28 is ALWAYS full of people, mostly tourists.
Being so close, you can combine 2 day trips from Lisbon, going to Belém and Cascais. Cascais is a beach town where locals go to spend a day at the beach.
Belém was the place from where the great Portuguese expeditions departed in the XVI and XVII centuries. Today there is a big monument, Padrao dos Descubrimentos (which translates to "The Monument of Discoveries") to commemorate this golden time. If you want to know more about this period of Portuguese history, you can check the official website of Portugal.
Another architectural sight is the Tower of Belém, which used to be a prison. We didn't go inside mainly because there was a huge queue!
The place we didn't want to miss was the Monastery of Jeronimos. The monks who lived there invented the famous pastel de nata, the most iconic Portuguese pastry. However, I'm sorry to say that the monastery itself does NOT deserve its €10 entry and 30 minute queue. There is really nothing to see apart from what you see in the picture above. It is nice, but not worth the trouble.
Something that deserved our time and money, though, was the Pastel de Belém, the bakery to which the monks sold the original recipe of the pastel de nata. To this day, this is the only bakery to know the original recipe. Maybe it is the power of suggestion, but we felt that these pastel de nata were delicious and somewhat different from the others we had eaten!
Cabo de Roca is famous for being the westernmost point in Europe. For centuries, people believed this was the end of the world! The landscape is pretty wild, with cliffs, rocks, and the Atlantic Ocean.
There isn't much to do but I still liked the feeling of being at the edges of the continent. I loved the landscape so much that I have used the pictures taken there for the header of this blog!
Unfortunately, there is only one, possibly overpriced, cafe/restaurant, so you may want to bring your own food. Also, I'm afraid that the restaurant has the only available toilet in the area and they allow only customers to go. They are quite strict on that, they even have gates like the ones you find to enter the underground! We ended up having a coffee, which was quite annoying, but there was no other choice.
Finally, you can find here the vlog for more imagery of these beautiful locations!
I hope enjoyed this post, goodbye from Portugal!
I'm desperate to get to Portugal. your post has such great tips! I'll definitely have to save for planning!
Love the idea of having the vlog along with the blog post! This is an awesome guide – I'm going to Portugal next week and will be saving this to refer back to when we're there! Thanks!
Of all the day trips you have mentioned Sintra sounds most appealing to me. I have never been to a European castle, so that attracts me even if it is touristy. I would love to climb up to the cross.
All day trips from Lisbon are very attractive and beautiful thing to do. I would live to visit beautiful town of Sintra. Also western point of Europe is great which was believed as end of land. Nice tips on day trips from Lisbon.
Loved your article <3. Just a tiny correction: Belém is not a town, is a "district" from the city of Lisbon (called "freguesia" in portuguese).
Portugal is on my top charts already and I love to spend atleast a month there. I'm always up for day trips and Sintra is a beautiful town. I am in awe with Palacio da Pena, gosh that's too gorgeous just like a fairytale. Thanks for sharing about a wonderful place!!!
I've been to Lisbon, but unfortunately did not have the chance to visit the surrounding towns. I'm due to return to Lisbon in a couple months and I'm very excited to go exploring. Great article!
I loved all the 3 places you chose to recommend as trips from Lisbon. But I must say I am eager to see the landscapes from Cabo De Roca. The place just seems to fascinate me being the tip of the continent.
This really make me want to visit Lisbon (it's been on my travel wishlist for a while). Sintra looks beautiful, but Quinta da Regaleira sounds amazing. I've been noticing on my travels that while I enjoy going to castles (and I do) I sometimes love visiting the beautiful castle gardens a little bit more.
I've never been to Lisbon or Portugal for that matter but it's been on my bucket list for years. All three day trips sound lovely but if I had to only choose one, I think I'd go with Belém so I could taste the iconic pastry pastel de nata!
We have been to Lisbon couple of years back and have explored all of these places. Sintra has so many wonderful places to explore but yes the Pena Palace, Cabo de Roca, and the Quinta da Regaleira are definitely unmissable.
I'm planning to explore Portugal in 2018. Hoping to go on an extended weekend trip to Lisbon and I hope I'll be able to see atleast one of these daytrips. Sintra looks the most gorgeous and more my kinda place with so much of heritage & history!

Manchester Farms
52 Manchester Lane, Avella, PA
Originally established in the 1770s by Isaac Manchester, Manchester Farms -- then called Grandview Dairy Farm -- has remained in the family for more than two centuries. It was recently purchased by direct descendant Margie Pagliarulo and her husband, Joe.
Eager to keep the farm operational but not wanting to run it themselves, the Pagliarulos partnered with experienced young farmer Steve Magan through FarmLink, a non-profit organization that works to connect retiring farmers with potential successors.
Mr. Magan decided to turn to the University of Pittsburgh Small Business Development Center (SBDC) to conduct a cash flow assessment. He saw the various opportunities to expand into new markets and improve operations, and seeked help in doing so.
Mr. Magan met with his consultants to develop a plan for building his organic dairy farm. The Pitt SBDC provided an operational and financial assessment of the business to help him better understand the areas that were most profitable and the areas that could be operating more efficiently.
The experienced consultants also conducted a financial analysis and benchmarks to compare Manchester Farms with comparable organic dairies in Pennsylvania and across the country. Such market research further helped with the development of the farm.
With the construction of a new milking parlor, Mr. Magan looked to expand milking to more cows. He continues to work with the Pitt SBDC to develop value-added marketing opportunities, and he once attracted a visit from Representative Tim Murphy of the 18th District of Pennsylvania.
Through the support of the Pitt SBDC, entrepreneurial farmers like Mr. Magan are helping to ensure that Western Pennsylvania's economic foundation in farming continues through the next generation.
Steve Magan decided to turn the Pagliarulos' old family-owned farm into a successful organic dairy farm.

Craft said the suspect, who reportedly worked alone, did have a criminal history.
"Why would a guy come into a theater and randomly start shooting people?" Craft asked about the shooters motives. "He is deceased. So, we may never know."
UPDATE: 11:00 p.m.
FBI, Louisiana State Police, Lafayette Police Department, Lafayette Fire Department Acadian Ambulance and Haz-Mat are on the scene investigating the shooting.
A riveting story came from Gov. Bobby Jindal who was interviewed from Lafayette General Medical Center. He said one of the injured victims is a teacher who protected one of her friends, who is also a teacher, by jumping between her and the shooter. The benevolent educator was wounded by a bullet and still maintained composure enough to pull the fire alarm.
Ambulances, Haz-Mat vehicles and fire trucks are again rushing to the scene.
Witnesses told KPEL emergency personnel rushed to side and rear exit doors at the Grand 16 at approximately 10:25 p.m.

Police are currently conducting a background check on the shooter, who is said to be a 58-year-old white male.
Police confirmed the shooter used a handgun and began shooting randomly inside one of the 16 theaters. No one outside of the particular theater, showing "Trainwreck," was harmed.
Police confirmed that two people are dead, one being the shooter, and six people were injured in the shooting at the Grand 16 shooting.
Police said an older white male opened fire within the theater about 20 minutes into a showing of the movie "Trainwreck". Then, he shot himself.
Lafayette Police Chief Jim Craft told the media the shooter was a male in his 50s. He said the suspect began discharging his weapon numerous times during the film. Shortly after, the shooter turned the gun on himself.
Craft reported two fatalities and seven injured. The surviving victims who have been transported to local hospitals have sustained injuries that range from non-life threatening to critical injuries.
Three victims were taken to Lafayette General Hospital, two others to Our Lady of Lourdes Medical Center and two others to Lafayette Regional Medical Center for treatment following the shooting.
Lt. Col. Mike Edmonson, superintendent of Louisiana State Police, said there is no reason to believe that the shooter acted beyond the Grand 16 theater, but Craft reported law enforcement officials have been sent to the Grand 14 movie theater on Kaliste Saloom that has been closed "out of an abundance of caution."
Gov. Bobby Jindal addressed the situation by thanking first responders and emergency personnel who acted swiftly with "this random act of violence."
"These senseless acts of violence makes you sad and furious at the same time," Jindal said."This is a time for us to come together. What we can do now is pray. Families are mourning the loss of loved ones."

Q: OpenShift3 Online CPU Resource Limits I'm fairly new to the OpenShift3 Online platform.
So far I can deploy my app and set memory limits fairly easily by editing the deployment configuration.
Is there a way to assign a specific maximum number of milicores to a deployment configuration in OpenShift3 Online?


With the trigger happy yokels in this state, I don't think that will ever be a problem.
Yup. The ultimate Illinois predator. I can't stand what they do but I have tons of respect for them. I wouldn't think of throwing one in a ditch to rot after I kill one.
Agreed treehugger, I have alot of respect for wolves. They are a beautiful animal and have a right to exist in our forrests in Illinois as long as the available prey can support them. I know this will have a negative impact on our deer population. The elk population out west is enough eveidence that wolves, as a top predator, will affect any ecosystem they inhabit in a big way. If wolve populations travel south and east into our state they should be protected and admired. In the future, if necessary, they should be controlled. They belong here and who are we as men and women to say they should not return?
I'd suggest you guys do some research on wolf predation prior to opening your arms wide open. Illinois has way too much livestock to allow wolfs. Wolves just don't kill for food, they kill for sport. They can wipe out entire herds of animals in a single night. As a western hunter I follow the wolf situation closer than most Illinois hunters. Believe me, we don't want them.
its not that we want them or not…......there here…... soooo…. yea…....take it all with a grain of salt….but no worries…...theres plenty of wonton pricks in this state that will happily dispose of these "pests" not realizing the absolute BENIFICIAL aspects these top predators provide…....yea yea they kill for sport and so on…....... are we any better???? at least they are somewhat hungry when they kill…...unlike some folks…. Besides it would take quite awhile for the wolves to estabilish a firm presence in illinois…....unlike other western states where they are more prevalent…... oh yea one more thing…......they were and are protected for many applicable reasons! Regulation is key for the wolves survival as well as the livelyhood of our stewardship with nature!
Hey guys, I was hunting in the Shawnee Forest in Pope County couple years back in January, I saw 3 wolves. Now I know the difference between wolve and yotes, these were definitly wolves as they past within 30 yards of me. These dudes were huge, way bigger than any German Sheperd I have ever seen.

CDD Reveals High Voter Apathy In 2020 Over Disappointments
The Center for Democratic Development (CDD) says apathy ahead of the 2020 election may worsen if the expectations of the citizenry are not met.
The CDD says there's the need for political parties to fulfil their campaign promises after winning elections.
This follows its latest Afrobarometer report which revealed that 12 percent of Ghanaians are unsure they will vote for any political party in the 2020 elections.
The report also showed that this percentage is the highest so far since 2008, after increasing by six points in the last two years.
But Research Analyst with the CDD, Geofred Asiamah, in a Citi News interview said, it is time political parties focused on meeting the expectations of voters.
"I think one key thing we have to take from this finding is the fact that, if the government's policies are responding to the needs of people. What are they thinking, what are their expectations? Are we responding to the expectations of these groups? Have we succeeded in convincing them over the years that we can satisfy their expectations when we come to power? So this is a clear issue for the political parties to decide."
Details of Afrobarometer report
Although the research comes at a time when momentum is beginning to be gathered by political actors ahead of the 2020 elections, producers of the Afrobarometer report said it is impossible to draw solid conclusions about a
likely election outcome since some of the respondents did not declare their votes.
When asked which party's candidate they would vote for if presidential elections were held the following day, more than four in 10 Ghanaians (42%) said they would either not vote (11%), did not know who to vote for (12%), or refused to answer the question (19%).
Majority of those who responded in the affirmative declared support for the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) over the National Democratic Congress (NDC) although the former's preference shrunk by 15 points.
"Compared to 2017, the proportion of respondents who said they would vote for the NPP has dwindled by 15 percentage points from 49% to 34% while the share who said they would vote for the NDC has remained unchanged 22%."
Recent Afrobarometer report proves Ghanaians are disappointed in NPP gov't – Otokunor
A Deputy General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Boamah Otokunor believes that the recent Afrobarometer report gives strong indications that a lot of Ghanaians are disappointed in the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP).
According to him, the fact that only 34 per cent of Ghanaians say they will vote for the incumbent party, shows that the NPP government has lost a lot of goodwill from the populace.
"If we do all the extrapolations, all things being equal you will see clearly that the NPP has lost strong support from the populace. You don't even need the polls to tell you– You go on the streets, you go to the banks, the hospitals and the classrooms [and ask poeple. You will understand what I'm saying]," he said.
Ghanaians indecisive on elections due to NPP still cleaning up Mahama's mess
The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has blamed Ghanaians being indecisive on who to vote for in the upcoming national polls on the NPP still refixing the poor economy they took over from when coming into power.
It's Communications Director Yaw Buaben Asamoa said the citizens are indecisive because their expectations have not been met yet since they are still building the country and will eventually decide as time goes by.
"So you have to take that survey overall and look at the in-built frustration of the system that we have where you have a government come in and literally drag us all the way back. And when another government comes in, the expectation of the people is that having being dragged that far back, they will be rebounded quickly but the problems the Mahama administration left us are such that they [Ghanaians] inevitably feel this thing that their expectations haven't fully been met yet so they're waiting."

Fulfilling the Promise of Broadband
By Matt DelNero | Chief, Wireline Competition Bureau
Today marks the beginning of Lifeline Awareness Week 2015, when agencies and organizations across the country conduct outreach to eligible low-income households about the Lifeline program. It's also worth pausing today to recognize the work that our partners in public utilities commissions across the country do towards making Lifeline both beneficial to its subscribers and the best use of the ratepayer dollars that support it. While these efforts often take place behind-the-scenes, they are critical to ensuring that low-income Americans can access the vital communications technologies they need.
Since the program began in 1985, Lifeline has offered families of limited means discounted phone service so they can access the economic, personal, and public safety benefits of reliable telecommunications service – from calling a child's school to reaching 911 in the event of an emergency.
But as we all know, the communications landscape has changed fundamentally over the past 30 years, and full participation in society now requires more than simple voice service. In June, the Commission found in its Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on the Lifeline program that "[t]oday, broadband is essential to participate in society." With that in mind, the Commission sought comment on how to best include broadband and promote efficiency in the Lifeline program, among other important questions.
As we promote awareness of the benefits that the Lifeline program provides today, we are mindful of the Commission's recent findings about the promise that affordable broadband access holds for low-income households. Broadband can help families fully engage in civic life and meaningfully access health services, job opportunities, and educational resources. And ultimately, all network users benefit when everyone, regardless of income level, can communicate and innovate through broadband access. Among other important topics addressed, the public comments we've already received in response to the Further Notice reveal the remarkable variety of ways that broadband can enrich and transform lives.
The public has pointed to how broadband enables access to new communications technologies for people with disabilities. With broadband service, children can complete their homework and prepare to be engaged citizens, state programs can share health care and nutrition information with parents and expectant parents, veterans can find much-needed support programs, and families can find gainful and fulfilling employment. For Tribal lands, we also have heard from commenters expressing how broadband can be especially useful in remote areas for maintaining important civic, economic, and social connections.
With the Commission's oversight, the Lifeline program has evolved from a wireline-only program to one that embraces the benefits of mobile service. Now, the Commission is looking at ways to modernize and restructure the Lifeline program to keep pace with today's technology. In this vein, we continue to welcome public comment on all issues raised in the Commission's Further Notice, bearing in mind the promise of broadband.

Introduction: When I was a young, I read statements about the lofty standards by which Christians are required to live. When I read the requirements and attitudes involved, I said, "I cannot do this. Why even try?" How did it make any sense to live a miserable life trying to reach an unattainable standard? I should just reject the whole idea because I was certainly destined to fail! Thankfully, it also seemed impossible to live a life without Jesus. Later, I learned about grace and was greatly relieved that I was saved by grace alone, and the lofty standard set before me was the goal of a lifetime, not a requirement for salvation. Let's dive into our study of the Bible and explore the standard set before those who are saved!
Read Luke 10:27-28. Is salvation a matter of what we do?
Read Luke 10:34-35. The Samaritan not only shows compassion, but he actually does something vital to help save this fellow. The Samaritan risks his life and health, detours from whatever his tasks were that day, and gives his own money to aid the victim. Would you do this for someone you disliked? Would you do it for someone who disliked you? Would you do it for someone who had foolishly traveled without protection?
Jesus tells the legal expert that he should do just like the Samaritan. What do you think are the odds of that?
Recall that the story started out with ( Luke 10:25) "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" If the expert fails to meet this standard, is he shut out from eternal life?
Read Matthew 19:17. Is this a correct answer to the question? Can we enter eternal life by obeying the Ten Commandments?
We have two parables and one story spoken by our Lord which say that the most radical love must be shown in deeds to others to be saved. How is this consistent with being saved by grace alone? It seems to directly contradict the concept of grace!
Read Matthew 19:26. After considering these three examples, I would expect Jesus to answer, "Concentrate. Grit your teeth and you can do it." Instead, Jesus says that God can do this, humans cannot. How do you understand this?
Is Jesus saying that with God's help humans can meet this impossible standard? Or, is He saying that only God can meet this impossible standard, and therefore grace is needed?
Read James 2:14. How would you answer this?
Friend, will you commit today to ask the Holy Spirit to start you on the journey to an attitude of absolute love towards all of those who come within your sphere?

Q: Is there a way to serialize a tree without using extra identifier for null? Recently I attended an interview and I was asked to serialize a given tree. As I was about to start, the interviewer asked about the approach to take. I replied, it's going to be preorder with some special char for null.
He said, that will waste a lot of space -can you do that without storing extra chars?
But all approach need extra space, I know a few :

*

*Inorder and preorder both rep.. but this needs 2n space upfront

*Level order .. but again this needs additional space

*Preoder with special char

But above approaches need additional space.
He was adamant that we can do it without additional storage .. on asking what the approach could be .. he asked to google.
Any clues? I have been googling and am not able to find any approach where null is not represented by special character.

Diane is hounded by FBI officials over her connections to Tully – a radical left-wing activist she had been sleeping with – and her previous filmed remarks about President Trump on the DNC audition tapes. Diane thinks that she is being bugged, after the prosecutor plays her a tape of her and Tully talking in her bedroom. The FBI interrogate Kurt about the gun he gave Diane, by saying that it is part of his background check. Proving his love and loyalty to Diane, he orders them out of his house, but not before Patrick Baseheart tells him that Diane will be indicted. It becomes clear the federal government are set on prosecuting her to make an example of the firm. Fighting fire with fire, Boseman leaks false information to a Fox News journalist concerning a porn star who slept with the President, alleging she instead was having an affair with the federal prosecutor targeting Diane; the President, who reliably watches Fox & Friends, would be sure to fire him via a tweet within minutes. Meanwhile, Lucca gives birth to a healthy baby boy, who she names Joseph Quinn-Morrello, but her mother sows seeds of doubt in her mind about Colin.

I would stick to a beginner routine, as the BIGGEST difference in my book between a beginner routine and the more advanced is form. Proper form is critical, as this not only can help prevent injuries, but you actually get more out of your workout with proper form. Additionally, you're giving your central nervous system time to adjust; jumping into a more advanced routine can cause problems.
In a recent meta-analysis of the available injury data in MMA, the injury incidence rate was estimated to be 228.7 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures (one athlete-exposure is defined as one athlete participating in a single fight).[170] The estimated injury incidence rate in MMA is greater than in other full-contact combat sports such as judo (44.0 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures),[171] taekwondo (79.4 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures),[172] amateur boxing (77.7 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures),[173] and professional boxing (118.0-250.6 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures).[174][175][176][177]

The ALACTIC system (aka the phosphagen or phosphocreatine system) is the energy system capable of producing the most energy within the shortest amount of time. A fight-ending flurry or combination uses this energy system. The alactic system is different to the aerobic and anaerobic system in that it produces energy by directly breaking down the ATP molecule, bypassing the conversion of fats, carbohydrates or protein into ATP. However, our body has limited stores of ATP, therefore the alactic system is the quickest to fatigue and can only produce large bursts of energy for up to 10 seconds. Fully restoring phosphocreatine and ATP stores takes around 5-8 minutes; this restoration time can be influenced by strength & conditioning training, as well as the level of development of the aerobic and anaerobic system.
Grappling Range - this is the third and final range of unarmed street fighting. Grappling range is divided into two different planes (vertical or horizontal). In the vertical plane, you can generally deliver impact techniques. Some include: elbow and knee strikes, head butts, gouging and crushing tactics, biting and tearing techniques. In the horizontal plane, you are ground fighting with your adversary and can deliver all the previously mentioned techniques, including various submission holds, locks and chokes.
"Everything has been AWESOME so far….best Martial Arts work out EVER….change NOTHING. WOW…is all that I can say about EVERYONE I have come into contact with….from Mr. Arnebeck to Bob P. to Randy and Josh L….great instructors who take the time to go over techniques with everyone in class and answer any questions…knowing my wrestling background they have all tried to teach me moves that would be suited to a grappler. I have recommended it a ton of people…..I am an assistant wrestling coach at the local high school and I have recommended that all my kids try it. I have done a wide variety of different martial arts-(Wu Shu Kung-Fu {2nd degree green}, boxing{6-2 4kos}, all types of amateur wrestling-{state champion freestyle and Greco-roman} and some Sambo/Judo) and I can say that without a doubt the Warriors Cove is what I have been searching for. From the great class environment to the instructors everything I have encountered has been great."
In the U.S., state athletic and boxing commissions have played a crucial role in the introduction of additional rules because they oversee MMA in a similar fashion to boxing. In Japan and most of Europe, there is no regulating authority over competitions, so these organizations have greater freedom in rule development and event structure.[citation needed]
The truth is this: if you really put your mind to it, went back to school and graduated with an honors degree in exercise science, trained dozens of fighters in person and hundreds of fighters around the world while receiving feedback and tweaking the program to make it better and better, in about 10 years or so you could probably develop, perhaps, an equally effective strength and conditioning program for MMA yourself, just like I did with the Ultimate MM Strength and Conditioning Program.
And most importantly, exactly what to do, how to do it, and when – choose between an 8, 12 and 16 week training template to follow that outlines everything including: intervals, cardio, bodyweight circuits, medicine ball training, weight training, core, NRG System Complexes and more, with exact reps, sets, rest periods and every detail you need to reach your physical potential
Every fighter understands the value of explosive power in combat sports and many believe that interval training is a great way to this sought after quality. Although this can certainly be true if the right interval methods are used, many of the most commonly used interval methods – Tabata intervals in particular among them – are not the most effective tools for this specific purpose.
Before I show you any actual fighting techniques, you need a posture or stance that will maximize your offensive techniques and provide defensive protection. In my Contemporary Fighting Arts, I teach my students a broad scope of strategic stances that protect your center line during a street fight. But for purposes of this how to article, I will only address the fighting stance. But, in order to better appreciate the fighting stance you should have a basic understanding of the center line theory. Basically, the center line is an imaginary vertical line that divides your body in half. Located on this line are some of your most vital anatomical targets that you must protect in a street fight. These targets include the eyes, nose, chin, throat, solar plexus and groin. Your center line is best protected by using a fighting stance that strategically position your targets away from direct hits.
While we may be known for training professional athletes and our Neurological Reengineering programs, BARWIS truly is a place for everyone to enjoy. Check out the list of core services we offer for the general public and please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have. Drop by the center anytime during business hours for a workout and who knows... you might even catch a glimpse of what a professional athlete's workout is like while working up a sweat!
To wrap up the workout, set one final timer. Then, do 10 forward rolls, 10 backward rolls, 100 sit-ups, 10 ground n' pounds (place a heavy bag on the floor, mount, and strike it; this is what's pictured), and 15 pushups. For the remainder of your timer—yeah, we know, you get it by now—jump rope. Slate this workout into your routine and you'll be fighting fit in no time.
Today's session is still a part of the strength cycle, but the load is not sufficient for strength development. For us, strength phase is all about getting the athlete stronger through improvement of various qualities. Today, as it is our third strength and conditioning session this week, we have decreased the intensity and will now focus on improving mobility and structural awareness, which will help you tolerate a heavier load.

How to: Hold one dumbbell in one hand and sit down on an exercise ball. Roll yourself forward, bending your knees and keeping your back straight, until your upper back and neck rest on the ball. Hold the dumbbell close to your chest and lift your free arm straight up into the air. Press the dumbbell up into a chest press. Repeat the movement with your other arm. Continue alternating sides.
Vale tudo began in the 1920s and became gained renown through its association with the "Gracie challenge", which was issued by Carlos Gracie and Hélio Gracie and upheld later by descendants of the Gracie family. The "Gracie Challenges" were held in the garages and gyms of the Gracie family members. When the popularity grew, these types of mixed bouts were a staple attraction at the carnivals in Brazil.[37] Early mixed-match martial arts professional wrestling bouts in Japan (known as Ishu Kakutōgi Sen (異種格闘技戦), literally "heterogeneous combat sports bouts") became popular with Antonio Inoki only in the 1970s. Inoki was a disciple of Rikidōzan, but also of Karl Gotch, who trained numerous Japanese wrestlers in catch wrestling.
I train in mixed martial arts and I actually like the format. I just changed some exercises. Instead of incline press I do pullovers, then I do hang clean and press with face pulls and rotater cuff work. Also I alternate between squats and sumo deadlifts,. You are very correct about overworking the shoulders with all the punching involved and pushing and pulling involved with MA training. I've simply altered the workouts and kept the format and this it's actually turning out to be my favorite routine.
Bruce is learning mixed martial arts, the fast-growing combat sport popularized by the Ultimate Fighting Championship. In the UFC, two fighters square off inside a cage, attempting to harm each other with a mix of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, wrestling, boxing and other fighting styles. Victory is often decided by a brutal knockout or a suffocating chokehold.
"In my opinion, real self-defense is more of a mental match up then a physical size match up. Mr. Arnebeck is a unique teacher. I have found him to be very open minded to new ideas and he realizes the only constant is change. I see him as student as well as a teacher and he is constantly adding to his resume and skills by continuing his education. He has been a student of Rickson Gracie (7th degree black belt BJJ) since 1996, and brings in Rodrigo Vaghi (3rd degree black belt BJJ) and Tom Crone (highest ranking Judo Master In MN) to the Warriors Cove for seminars. Its important to me that he continue to provide me with up to date information."

Not all dig so called Fighters.that go around bashing others. I choose to fight because I wish to be safe and not victim. Survived many encounters from bullying to violent attacks and thanks to mma defence otherwise I'd never here to see how many that are extremely sexist and arrogant to the art as I understand why my senses has said there are too many boy idiots doing mma and not enough women doing mma to protect themselves especially children.
I was able to locate a school called Warrior's Cove, and I was also excited to learn that the school was directly associated with the great Rickson Gracie whom I've seen on many a highlight reel. He is so good in fact that Royce Gracie actually claimed Rickson to be 10 times better than him. I figured it was meant to be and went in for some information.
MMA competition is legal and under the purview of the Professional Mixed Martial Arts Council or PROMMA Africa,[citation needed] which was formed in 2010 with the main purpose to regulate MMA at larger MMA promotions such as EFC Worldwide (Formerly known as EFC Africa). PROMMA Africa began overseeing Rise of the Warrior MMA events in 2010. In 2012 the PROMMA Africa Council was accepted into the Mixed Martial Arts Association of South Africa (MASA) thus granting MMA "national sport" status.[citation needed] In addition to EFC Africa, there are other leagues such as Dragon Legends MMA.[264]
I don't mark the rest periods in between sets or exercises. Rest as long as you need and approach each set as recovered as possible. Avoid failure. You should stop each set before you can't lift any more, and rest longer if you need to so that you can follow along with the workout. The recommended starting weights assume familiarity with the exercises. If you are new to a program like this or are detrained, add a few reps to each rep max recommendation. For example, where it says "3 x 5 with your 8-rep max" instead, do 3 x 5 with your 10- or 11-rep max instead, as the work out will rapidly become too difficult to do with your 8-rep max.
Under the direction of his movement coach, Ido Portal, McGregor assumes a squat position, and catches sticks as they slowly fall to the training mat. He dodges Portal's advances with handstands, crawls on the mat like a sauntering bear, and balances a stick on his feet while lying on his back. These maneuvers may seem disjointed and experimental, but they're deliberate, and have helped broaden McGregor's sense of clarity amid the unceasing chaos of a UFC title fight.
To make things simplier, intensity can be categorized into different training zones. In the chart below, training intensity zones are based off of a percentage of an athlete's maximal heart rate OR a percentage of their lactate threshold. Heart rate is well-known to have a linear relationship with exercise intensity, in that when workload or intensity increases, heart rate will also increase to supply the working muscles with blood.
The Body Action System (B.A.S – get it?) is Bas Rutten's MMA workout program and equipment . A big problem with a lot of workouts is they become stale, but Bas keeps things interesting and fun. Admittedly, this is one of those crazy late-night infomercial things that you order when you're drunk. So, if you're drunk right now, definitely buy this. As for for actual B.A.S. itself, it's easier to just take a look at the picture below.
After reading the post, at first I was pleased and reading the comments. Just disgusted. Sexism is the ugliest of discrimination and to read some, that claim to be Fighters. Which Is worse and to tell anyone of any height or weight can't do mma, are utterly disgraceful. Where did any of you learn any mma training and to carry ego traits like you do is even worse. Everyone has the right to feel safe, and protect themselves. Telling them to go anger management is just pathetic. Have you been to anger management since advising that? I suppose why would you all if claim to be proper Fighters. Should be ashamed of yourselves, no wonder why they teach their own the true statistics of the art because they don't want idiots with egos destroying what took many years to build.
Sambo is a Russian martial art, combat sport and self-defense system.[119] It is a mixture of Judo and Freestyle Wrestling using a Keikogi known as Kurtka. Sambo focuses on throwing, takedowns, grappling, and includes submissions from Judo and Catch Wrestling. Sambo also has a modality known as Combat Sambo, which adds punches, kicks, elbows and knees, making it a proto-MMA hybrid fighting style. Sambo is popular in Russia and eastern Europe, where it is taught as a complement to Judo and Wrestling training, Sambo also provides a good base for MMA with all-around skills for combining grappling and striking. Some notable Sambo fighters that transitioned into MMA include: Fedor Emelianenko, Igor Vovchanchyn, Oleg Taktarov and Khabib Nurmagomedov.
I can say with confidence that 99 percent of us don't have the same schedule as a professional athlete. Instead of a 10 a.m. marketing meeting, professional fighters start their morning with the first of two daily training sessions. Their afternoon may consist of interviews, an appointment with the physical therapist, lunch, a nap, and then they're back in the gym for their second training session.
Perform sport-specific, strength-training moves using body-weight exercises. MMA coach Doug Balzarini recommends integrating movements -- such as the sit-out, bear crawl, sprawl and complex inchworm -- to prepare for a fight. Each of these movements improves balance while working core, upper and lower-body muscle groups. Include these exercises with your resistance-training workouts, performing three to four sets of 10 to 12 reps each.
What is it? The literal Hebrew translation of Krav Maga is "battle contact" and we can't think of a better description. It was developed by the Israeli Defense Force to be used in real-life combat situations. In addition to punches, kicks and throws, it teaches real-life scenarios like how to disarm an attacker. Rubber knives and guns will make appearances.

It wasn't until 1993 when mixed martial arts were first introduced to the United States through the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), a mixed martial arts promotional company. The UFC showcased various mixed martial arts athletes fighting each other without weight classes and very few few rules, by boxing standards it was a bloodsport where just about "anything goes". In 1995 United States Senator John McCain called mixed martial arts "human cockfighting," and demanded that MMA be regulated by an athletic commission. Senator McCain's destain for mixed martial arts was well known after his remark, "MMA appeals to the lowest common denominator in our society."
You will also note I do not use percentages of maximums, but rather what rep max you should be using for your weights. This is because I find this to be both more accurate, and simpler for most people to follow. As an example, if I write "3 x 5 with your 7-rep max," this means you should do three sets of five repetitions with a weight that you could only lift seven times at most. However, you should be able to cleanly finish that seventh rep. If you have to seriously struggle and cheat a little to do that seventh rep, then it doesn't count. Your 7-rep max is the weight where you could do seven very strict reps.

You may be attacked by more than one opponent, thus you need to train for that possibility. While it's extremely difficult to fight multiple opponents with sport based rules, it can be done in a no rules environment, especially where weapons are allowed. A hard finger jab to the eye of one attacker, for example, can put him out of commission while you deal with the second. Training methods where you practice blasting through multiple opponents in order to run or get a better position are also a necessity.

In Norway, sports that involve knockouts as a means of securing victory or points are illegal, including MMA and boxing.[241][242] Norwegian MMA fighters must therefore travel abroad to compete. The Norwegian MMA Federation (NMMAF) was elected as a full member of the International MMA Federation (IMMAF) on 22 April 2012,[243] representing 49 member gyms across Norway.[244] In 2012 the "Merkekamper" concept was introduced by the NMMAF, with government sanctioning, which enables member MMA gyms to hold events with sparring matches, but governed by strict rules concerning how hard a fighter is permitted to strike.[245][246]

U.S. Cancer Deaths Decline Again: Report
Latest Cancer News
Progress on Lung Cancer Drives Overall Decline
Immune-Based Drug Fights Endometrial Cancer
Medicaid Rules May Affect Cancer Survival in US
TUESDAY, Jan. 7, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- The rate of cancer deaths among Americans continues to decline, according to a new report. Over the last 20 years, the overall risk of dying from cancer has dropped 20 percent, researchers found.
The fastest decline in cancer death risk has been among middle-aged black men, for whom death rates have dropped by about 50 percent, the study authors report.
"We continue to make progress against cancer," said report co-author Ahmedin Jemal, vice president for surveillance and health services research at the American Cancer Society.
But despite this progress, black men still have the highest cancer incidence and death rates of all groups -- about double those for Asian Americans, who have the lowest rates, the authors pointed out in a news release from the American Cancer Society.
The decline in cancer deaths from 1991 to 2010 varied by age, race and sex, researchers found. For example, there was no decline in deaths for white women 80 and older, but a 55 percent decline among black men aged 40 to 49 years old.
This progress is largely because of better prevention, screening and treatment, Jemal said. The dramatic decline in cancer among black men is most likely attributable to decreases in smoking, he added.
Jemal said most of the progress has been made in colon, breast and prostate cancer. These cancers can be screened for and, when caught early, have better outcomes, he said.
In addition, decreased smoking has reduced the number of lung cancers, Jemal said.
But some cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, for which there is no screening and for which treatment often comes too late, remain just as deadly, he said.
Jemal, however, expects a brighter future as screening increases as more Americans get access to health insurance through the Affordable Care Act. Not having insurance is the biggest barrier to screening, he explained.
Still, more needs to be done to close the improvement gap between races, an expert said.
"The halving of the risk of cancer death among middle-aged black men in just two decades is extraordinary, but it is immediately tempered by the knowledge that death rates are still higher among black men than white men for nearly every major cancer and for all cancers combined," John Seffrin, chief executive officer of the American Cancer Society, said in a society news release.
The report was published Jan. 7 in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians.
Dr. Anthony D'Amico, chief of radiation oncology at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, said, "The good news is that the rate of deaths has declined again for almost the 10th consecutive year."
D'Amico also believes that these declines are the result of better screening, especially screening for prostate cancer. In addition, new treatments are reducing deaths, he said.
"Something good is happening and I would attribute that to screening and better treatments," D'Amico said. "We have better treatments for men and women, so screening can only help," he added.
In 2014, it's estimated there will be over 1.6 million new cancer cases and nearly 586,000 cancer deaths in the United States, according to the report. Although the number of new cancers and cancer deaths continues to increase as the population increases and ages, the rate of new cancers and cancer deaths is declining, Jemal explained.
For men, prostate, lung and colon cancer will make up half of all newly diagnosed cancers. Prostate cancer alone will account for about one-quarter of the cases, the researchers estimate.
Among women, the most common cancers will be breast, lung and colon cancer. Taken together, these will account for half of all cases. Breast cancer alone is estimated to account for 29 percent of all new cancers.
In 2014, about 1,600 people will die from cancer each day, the report estimates. Lung, colon, prostate and breast cancers are the most common causes of cancer death. These account for almost half of the all cancer deaths. Just over one in four cancer deaths is from lung cancer, the researchers noted.

From 2006 to 2010, cancer rates dropped 0.6 percent per year among men while remaining stable among women. During the same time, death rates from cancer dropped by 1.8 percent per year among men and 1.4 percent per year among women, the investigators found.
Moreover, during the last 20 years, the death rate from cancer has continued to drop from a high of about 215 per 100,000 people to about 172 per 100,000 people in 2010. This means that 1,340,400 fewer cancer deaths (952,700 among men and 387,700 among women) were avoided during that time period, the researchers explained.
