St. Lawrence Seminary springs from humble beginnings
Karen Mahoney, Special to your Catholic Herald | April 22, 2010
It's affectionately known as the "Hill of Happiness." Whether students graduated from St. Lawrence Seminary High School in 1864 or will graduate in 2010, a common thread is woven through each of them – a strong devotion to Catholicism entwined with a solid education.
Two diocesan priests, Fr. Francis Haas and Fr. Bonaventure Frey, arrived from Switzerland to establish a Capuchin order in the United States in 1856. Two Swiss Capuchins joined them on Mount Calvary, and both joined the order after building a small friary atop the lush, wooded hill. Four years later, the Convent Latin School opened as an offshoot of the friary.
Initial enrollment was four students, each of whom paid $10 to cover room, board and tuition. Fifteen students enrolled the following year and 20 more a year later.
Adding a college wing in 1864 offered the high school boys a stepping stone to study for the priesthood. Enrollment quickly grew and another college wing was added in 1867.
Optimistic, the 1868 school year began with 28 Capuchin friars and 42 students in the newly completed friary and college. The joy turned to disbelief as a Christmas fire in the sacristy gutted the entire complex, except for a portion of the church.
From the ashes, school rebuilt
The rebuilt school, "The Little Seminary of Saint Lawrence of Brindisi," named after the founder of the Capuchin Order, reopened the following fall. Another college building, St. Joseph Hall, was erected in 1872, and the Laurentianum, the current main office building and classrooms, was built in 1881.
In 1895 Fr. Haas died after realizing his dream to found a Capuchin order in the United States, and with the knowledge that St. Lawrence was a renowned educational institution for young men interested in the religious life. Fr. Frey lived to see the 50th anniversary of the Capuchin foundation in Mount Calvary. He died in 1912, also leaving the legacy of the successful St. Lawrence Seminary High School. The school's name was formally changed from St. Lawrence College to St. Lawrence Seminary in 1953.
When he was a boy, Capuchin Fr. Werner Wolf, local minister (superior) of the Capuchin Friars at St. Lawrence Friary, followed his older brother Eugene around the campus while discerning his secondary education. Fr. Eugene attended St. Lawrence, joined the Capuchins and resides in Mount Calvary today.
Fr. Wolf attended St. Lawrence from 1946 to 1950, and went to the Capuchin novitiate in Huntington, Ind., after graduation. His first permanent assignment as a Capuchin out of formation was in 1960 at St. Lawrence Seminary, where he taught speech, religion and geometry.
For 18 years, Fr. Werner Wolf served as teacher, prefect, spiritual director, formation director and vice rector. In 1978, he served as provincial director of vocations and director of a residential pre-novitiate program, followed by several years as an itinerant preacher. Several positions later, he was asked back to Mount Calvary to serve as local minister of the Capuchins.
"I thought it would be difficult for me to come back to (St. Lawrence Seminary) when asked in 2005 after so many years in vocation and formation ministry. First of all, I believe the present administration runs a tight ship, but a good one, outstanding formation morally, educationally, spiritually and socially," he said. "Upon returning, I found two items really standing out, one, the fraternity system of student living and life and two, morning and evening prayers each school day and three Eucharists each week."
The Friday Mass is a powerful experience, according to Fr. Wolf, who said the entire student body, the staff and faculty attend as one community. The prayer life and the fraternal life provide a close-knit family atmosphere that draws students together, he said.
While student dress, demographics, enrollment, technology and music changed since Fr. Wolf set foot on campus in the 1940s, the greatest change has been the focus on security and protecting the school's youth.
Overcoming scandal
A sexual abuse scandal rocked the campus in the early 1990s after it was learned that five Capuchin friars abused 14 former students from 1968 to 1986. The abusive friars are either deceased or left the order, and none was convicted of a crime.
Not one student dropped out when the scandal broke during the 1992-93 school year, and enrollment has remained constant at around 225 students. Parents and alumni maintained their loyalty to the school's mission, but significant changes were made to protect this tragedy from ever happening again, Fr. Wolf said.
"Security is an obvious change. Before, dorms were never locked, nor most areas," he said. "Now, no dorm, room, or activity area functions without supervision by an adult."
In learning from its mistakes, the school has continued to flourish despite a decrease in vocations and, according to Fr. Wolf, the continued existence of St. Lawrence Seminary High School is nothing short of a miracle.
"I come back to the hill that is literally 'out in nowhere' existing in this day and age – it is like Notre Dame," he said. "In many ways, as time has changed, it is a marvelous ministry training school and is going to continue to impact and imprint the local and total world community in some manner or form."
Strong leadership guides school
When hundreds of seminaries closed in the 1960s due to a decrease in vocations, Fr. Keith Clark, president emeritus of St. Lawrence Seminary, saved the school from following the same path, according to Fr. Wolf.
"His leadership brought Capuchins and lay staff together in a common trust and value system," he said. "Rector Fr. Dennis Druggan and others pick up on that and have placed it on solid footing for the spirit, life and culture of the 21st century."
As a student in the early 1950s, Capuchin Fr. Ron Smith remembers a completely Capuchin staff except for those working in the kitchen, housekeeping and maintenance, and a primarily white student body.
"I was present for four years of high school and one year of college," he said. "After that, I joined the Capuchins in the novitiate in Detroit where Fr. Solanus Casey (Venerable Servant of God) also lived."
Showing the Calvary spirit by being Christ-like was the focus of spirituality at the time, as well as a strong devotional life through the rosary, communal meditations, the Mass and the sacraments – most of which remain constant today, said Fr. Smith.
"One important item that remains constant in the school is the importance of the individual," he said. "Faculty meetings attest to this. When I taught here in the 1960s and 1970s, meetings were long because time was taken for each individual. The growth, challenges, successes, failures, joys and sorrows of our students became part of faculty concern, care and prayers. Faculty meetings and other gatherings still reflect this central concern."
From 1966 to 1977, Fr. Smith taught English and served as a dorm supervisor in St. Mary's Hall from 1966-1970. He also served as coordinator of a group of minority students, which called itself the Coalition of Oppressed Peoples, and was intended to be a support for minority vocations and a vehicle of instruction and information on race relations and stereotyping.
Academically, more challenging
Returning to St. Lawrence Seminary in August 2006 as an English teacher, Fr. Smith now serves as spiritual director; substitute English teacher, study hall supervisor and helps with recruiting new students.
In addition to demographic changes, the course schedules are academically more challenging than they were.
"There are college credit courses being taught at the upper class level," he said. "I know more reading is required, including during break times. There are more electives available than there were in my previous times at (St. Lawrence Seminary)."
While the school has not had a separate college for more than 40 years, Fr. Smith finds it difficult to judge whether the change is positive.
"This is a change in student leadership and maturity which I am sure had its influence and implications, but is more difficult for me to judge," he said. "I believe that college age students had a great positive influence upon me as a student, especially those who went on to become ordained or entered religious life. The fidelity of these men, Capuchin and non-Capuchin, remains an inspiration in my life."
Focus on developing spiritually
The focus at St. Lawrence to live a deep spiritual life and develop a greater appreciation of the Catholic faith is one reason Fr. Smith felt drawn to the priesthood.
"I learned the practice of 'lectio divina' (contemplative prayer) at (St. Lawrence Seminary) and it has been a part of my prayer life ever since," he said. "I have very good memories that go back to my days as a student in the early 1950s. Friendships formed during those years have lasted through the decades to the present time. Living so close together in the big dorms of those days, living very simply without many things, and in a tight schedule with few options or electives of any kind, our shared life gave us experiences of faith and inspiration."
While discerning his vocation to religious life during his first year of college at St. Lawrence Seminary, Fr. Smith was moved during a retreat by Capuchin Fr. Rupert Dorn.
"Sharing that experience of discernment with closer friends at the time is a lasting happy memory of mine through the years, including discussions in which we were not in agreement. That discernment process required me to think through my priorities of faith and gain a better sense of listening to the Holy Spirit."
Graduates enter various career fields
As the provincial minister of the Province of St. Joseph of the Capuchin Order, Fr. John Celichowski began his education at St. Lawrence Seminary as a freshman in 1976. Although vocational discernment is still an integral part of St. Lawrence, graduates go on to a variety of professional careers, such as doctors, lawyers, members of the FBI, engineers, and other noteworthy professions.
The Celichowski family is no exception.
"All three boys in our family graduated from (St. Lawrence Seminary), my twin brother Chris and I in 1980 and Tim in 1982," he said. Chris has been married for 21 years, has four children and is a partner in a law firm in Edina, Minn. Tim has been married for 22 years, has two sons, and works for an environmental engineering firm in Milwaukee."
Throughout high school, Fr. Celichowski enjoyed participating in student council, Right to Life club, track and field and cross country.
"I'm almost embarrassed to say that, after 30 years, I still hold the school record for the 3,200-meter run," he said. "When I was there, football and basketball were the big sports. The school dropped football many years ago and it has been replaced by soccer and wrestling."
Fr. Celichowski joked that his class was on the cutting edge of technology when he learned to type on an IBM Selectric typewriter under the tutelage of Sr. Veronita.
"Now, they have cell phones and social networking sites that were more the realm of science fiction when we were students," he said.
Fr. Celichowski's fondest memory of his time at St. Lawrence is the brotherhood of students and the solid Catholic education he received.
"In addition to the brotherhood, the dedication and example of so many of the friars who served there, the liturgies, learning how to take responsibility for my spiritual development, and trying and succeeding at running after I failed to make the basketball team were so important in my formation," he said. "High school sports taught me a lot of lessons about leadership, self discipline and teamwork."
Parents can feel confident that by sending their sons to St. Lawrence, they will be exposed to quality Catholic education, become a whole person in body, mind and soul, and learn the central lesson of the Gospels, he said.
"That greatness is not so much in achievement and power, but in service, regardless of one's particular vocation" said Fr. Celichowski, quoting Mark 10:35-45, when Jesus reminds his followers that to be great, they must be servants, "'For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.'"

When ripping large quantities of CDs, you really have to have an efficient way to query and edit CDDB entries. So here's an Emacs library for doing that. It includes a bunch of convenience functions for fixing up other people's bad entries, and you also have all the standard Emacs editing commands at your, er, command, so it's rather nice.
I also download the entire database from freedb now and then. It's useful mainly when sampling (old) vinyl. By using an approximate match for the albums, I can usually find the album in question, which means less typing for me.
However, the DISCID collisions these days are just ridiculous. I've written about this before, but the situation is as ridiculous today as ever. I mean, even more so. It's now impossible to submit any new album on the "rock" category, so everything I submit now is apparently "folk" or "data".
Re collisions: Have you considered musicbrainz.org instead?
They seem to have a better concept for identifying discs.
musicbrainz is a proprietary service, isn't it?
The problem is when submitting, not querying, so I doubt that musicbrainz could have a (significantly) better CD identification system than freedb.
The MusicBrainz data is free (public domain + Creative Commons): http://musicbrainz.org/doc/About_MusicBrainz – The software is GPL/LGPL.
I've found that it handles collisions well, but I am too lazy to look up how/why.
Ah, right. I was thinking about Gracenote.
It looks like the MusicBrainz people have done the right thing with their ID system, so there'll be fewer collisions.

In 1985, the esteemed novelist worked with composer Todd Barton to create an album of unheard language and instruments. The reissue highlights the rich, totally immersive art Ursula K. Le Guin sought to create.
"Heron Dance," the first song is one of the more evocative pieces on the album—wordless, electronic, and organic, with synthesizer, handmade instruments, percussion and what appears to be a dulcimer-like instrument. Like the novel, Music and Poetry of the Kesh pulls freely and weirdly and somehow unobtrusively from multiple genres—sacred, choral, poetry, avant-garde, minimalist, and downright New Age. In its original packaging, it resembles some lost Terry Riley collaboration, or a bootleg of John Cage and Merce Cunningham's first Happening—something forested and futuristic. Barton visited Le Guin on her Napa Valley ranch, the ostensible setting for Always Coming Home, where he collected field recordings. The ambient sounds of creek and crickets feature on "Twilight Song"; campfire and coyotes filter into the female chorus of "Yes—Singing," the woods encroaching on the studio.
The songs of the Kesh speak to an earth-based spirituality, referencing ceremonies of actual Native Americans: "Sun Dance Poem," "A River Song,"; there are songs for willow trees, dragonflies, herons, and quail. The titles alone are risky; are these cultural appropriations? In the wrong hands, they could be, of course, particularly if Le Guin and Barton had opted to base them on actual sacred or ceremonial songs. But Le Guin resolved instead to listen not so much to other music but to the land itself, as she had done since childhood.
Le Guin is the daughter of two prominent cultural anthropologists who focused their work on Native American tribes of Northern California, especially the Yahi, a California tribe decimated by genocide. In the early 20th century, Alfred Kroeber made wax cylinder recordings of Ishi, the last known member of the Yahi, speaking and singing in the language that would largely die with him. Theodora Kroeber wrote Ishi in Two Worlds, as well as another, partly fictionalized book based on Ishi's story.
Undoubtedly, Le Guin grew up hearing Ishi's recordings and the music of other indigenous people. Native American friends were frequent houseguests at her parents' "rundown, easy-going" Napa Valley ranch. Her Kesh songs honor the simplicity of hymns and sacred music, but they feel distinct, true to the world of the characters Le Guin created. Barton built instruments that he and Le Guin imagined the Kesh people would have played—a seven-foot-long horn, a flute made out of bone—and then taught himself and ostensibly the other musicians on the album, to play them. When he asked Le Guin if the Kesh spoke English, she responded, "Drat!" and then spent months making up an alphabet, included in the back of the novel, and vocabulary for her lyrics.
You don't need to "speak Kesh," or to have read the book, in order to appreciate the idiosyncrasies of this album, but one heightens the understanding of the other. Think of The Music and Poetry of the Kesh as an open invitation to entering another, other-world of Le Guin's. The album moves through a series of a cappella or sparsely accompanied songs with entrancing choral arrangements of female voices, male ones, and the harmonizing of both. "A Teaching Poem," delivered at normal speed, will sound most deceptively familiar to listeners of indigenous music; the slowed-down "Sun Dance Poem" casts it in an otherworldly, monastic tone. Listen outdoors and the creek water you hear in Le Guin and Barton's songs may sync up to the muddy river you're passing; listen during a city's winter and the percussive rhythm and bell-like tones will commune with your apartment radiator. These are sounds that seek to speak from then and beyond, to right now.
"The people in this book might be going to have lived a long, long time from now in Northern California," Le Guin writes in the opening pages of Always Coming Home. "They are translations from a literature of the (or a) future." The Kesh's music and poems, too, are modern and archaic at once—they reach back to ancient hymns for the earth to repair the toxic damage wrought on their own. Pulling from the long ago past to address the people of the not-so-distant past, these songs are celebratory and a clarion call at once.


Last year we held our first annual Drama Camp and we hired Kurt Duval from Green Man Productions to host a few workshops in the areas of: Voice and physicality, Ritual theatre and Collage drama utilising different styles of Theatre. He really engaged the students and made the practical side of the workshops accessible for them to work on and end the camp with a mini performance piece, which they then used in their end of year performance at the Logan Entertainment Centre. The students ended the camp with a strong understanding of the content and left the camp feeling they had accomplished something that was worthy of performance.

Q: Split the query string with repeatative special characters using SQL This is my String
Declare @qstr as varchar(max)='hireteammember.aspx?empemail=kuldeep@asselsolutions.com&empid=376&empname=kuldeep&adminname=TMA1&term=5&teamid=161&contactid=614¥1&WP=100¥5¥Months&Amt=500&DueDay=5&StrDt=12/31/2013&MemCatg=Employees&StrTm=21:05&PlnHrs=5&WrkDays=true¥true¥true¥true¥true¥false¥false'

I want to extract the values of empid,empname,adminname,term,teamid,contactid,WP,Months,Dueday,StrDt,MemCatgmStrTm,PlnHrs,WrkDays and assign them to new variables
I have used
select ( SUBSTRING(@qstr,CHARINDEX('=',@qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&',@qstr)-CHARINDEX('=',@qstr)-1)))

but only getting the 'empemail' , for the next occurance of special char '&' , not able to get the values of further terms ,  if i am using '&' in spite of '=' .
Help me to split the whole string

A: How about using XML to split the values into rows, and then splitting them into columns.
Something like
Declare @qstr as varchar(max)='hireteammember.aspx?empemail=kuldeep@asselsolutions.com&empid=376&empname=kuldeep&adminname=TMA1&term=5&teamid=161&contactid=614¥1&WP=100¥5¥Months&Amt=500&DueDay=5&StrDt=12/31/2013&MemCatg=Employees&StrTm=21:05&PlnHrs=5&WrkDays=true¥true¥true¥true¥true¥false¥false'

DECLARe @str VARCHAR(MAX) = SUBSTRING(@qstr,CHARINDEX('?',@qstr,0) + 1, LEN(@qstr)-CHARINDEX('?',@qstr,0))
DECLARE @xml XML
SELECT  @xml = CAST('<d>' + REPLACE(@str, '&', '</d><d>') + '</d>' AS XML)

;WITH Vals AS (
        SELECT  T.split.value('.', 'nvarchar(max)') AS data
        FROM    @xml.nodes('/d') T(split)
)
SELECT  LEFT(data,CHARINDEX('=',data,0) - 1),
        RIGHT(data,LEN(data) - CHARINDEX('=',data,0))
FROM    Vals

SQL Fiddle DEMO

A: CREATE FUNCTION dbo.SplitQueryString (@s varchar(8000))
RETURNS table
AS
RETURN (
    WITH splitter_cte AS (
      SELECT CHARINDEX('&', @s) as pos, 0 as lastPos
      UNION ALL
      SELECT CHARINDEX('&', @s, pos + 1), pos
      FROM splitter_cte
      WHERE pos > 0
      ),
    pair_cte AS (
    SELECT chunk,
           CHARINDEX('=', chunk) as pos
    FROM (
        SELECT SUBSTRING(@s, lastPos + 1,
                         case when pos = 0 then 80000
                         else pos - lastPos -1 end) as chunk
        FROM splitter_cte) as t1
  )
    SELECT substring(chunk, 0, pos) as keyName,
           substring(chunk, pos+1, 8000) as keyValue
    FROM pair_cte
)
GO

declare @queryString varchar(2048)
set @queryString = 'foo=bar&temp=baz&key=value';
SELECT *
  FROM dbo.SplitQueryString(@queryString)
OPTION(MAXRECURSION 0);

when run produces the following output.
keyName  keyValue

-------  --------

foo      bar

temp     baz

key      value

(3 row(s) affected)

I believe that this will do exactly what you are asking.
SQL FIDDLE DEMO

A: If the order of the values in the html string remains same i would suggest using the whole string name like
select ( SUBSTRING(@qstr,CHARINDEX('empemail=',@qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&empid=',@qstr)-CHARINDEX('empemail=',@qstr)-1)))

If you are still looking for nth occurance then refer to this link

A:     Declare @qstr as varchar(max)='hireteammember.aspx?empemail=kuldeep@asselsolutions.com&empid=376&empname=kuldeep&adminname=TMA1&term=5&teamid=161&contactid=614¥1&WP=100¥5¥Months&Amt=500&DueDay=5&StrDt=12/31/2013&MemCatg=Employees&StrTm=21:05&PlnHrs=5&WrkDays=true¥true¥true¥true¥true¥false¥false'

(select ( SUBSTRING(@qstr,CHARINDEX('&empname=',@qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&adminname=',@qstr)-CHARINDEX('&empname=',@qstr)-1)))

(select ( SUBSTRING(@qstr,CHARINDEX('?empemail=',@qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&empid=',@qstr)-CHARINDEX('?empemail=',@qstr)-1)))

like this i have splitted and updated The whole string. Thank you All for your answers, Your answers Helped me to solve this

I was only 4 years old when McEnroe, the brash Irish-New Yorker, played Borg, the stoic Swede, for the Wimbledon singles title in 1980. But my tennis coach had a tape of the match and later I had the opportunity to see it. The match, especially the 4th set tie-breaker, was truly extraordinary. Some say it was the greatest tennis match ever played.
No sport does nostalgia better than tennis (Guess this English author never met an American baseball fan, or played much golf.); it wallows in the stuff. True, tennis has a rich history, but judging by the amount of time most tennis buffs spend gazing in the rearview, you might well think history is the only thing the game has going for it. The future is rarely regarded as bright; the past, by contrast, is seen as shining, growing more luminous the more distant it becomes.
Of course, some moments from the past deserve a long, retrospective gaze, and this year's Wimbledon affords one such opportunity, marking as it does the 25th anniversary of what ought to be known at this point simply as The Match. It was exactly a quarter-century ago that John McEnroe and Bjorn Borg met in what is considered by many to have been the greatest match ever played at Wimbledon, possibly the greatest match ever played anywhere.
The particulars: Borg won the match in five sets, taking the final stanza 8-6 to notch his fifth consecutive Wimbledon crown. But what stands out in most minds, of course, is the fourth-set tiebreaker, won by McEnroe. It was a tiebreaker that required 34 points and 22 minutes of play. It caught everyone who saw it utterly spellbound and left them completely spent. It was hard enough as a spectator to carry on to a fifth set; how Borg and McEnroe managed to answer the bell, and managed to keep up the quality, still reels the mind.
Of course, the numbers hardly begin to tell the story, and words are not much better. If you have been living under an exceptionally large boulder all these years and have never seen a tape of the match, do yourself the favour. Suffice it to say, it was simply a day on which two of the game's greatest players happened to play what can fairly be called the matches of their lives, and happened to do so while playing against one another. The result was several hours of the most brilliant tennis imaginable, tennis that only got better as the match got tighter.
The match was an instant classic, of course, and as the years have gone by, it has loomed ever larger in the sport's collective memory - and not just because it was such a thrill to watch. It is also because that kind of artful tennis does not get played any more. Wood racquets have given way to graphite ones, soft, rally-friendly balls have given way to fuzzy hand grenades, and players drawn on a human scale have given way to Goliaths. Back in 1980, finesse was the coin of the realm in tennis, and that is certainly no longer the case.
Memories of the Borg-McEnroe match also have a bittersweet edge because their rivalry proved to be such a fleeting one. Indeed, they met only three more times in grand slam finals: at the 1980 US Open, at Wimbledon again in 1981, and at the US Open again in 1981. McEnroe won all three matches, and it was his five-set victory at the 1981 Open, a tournament that had bedeviled Borg throughout his career, that drove the Swedish icon into early retirement.
With five Wimbledon titles and six French Open crowns, Borg had already secured himself a place among the all-time greats. And yet he was still just 25, presumably with more sublime tennis to be played, and it is hard not feel a tinge of regret at his hasty departure from the game, and particularly in light of the impact it had on McEnroe.
In retrospect, it is clear Borg's retirement was a severe blow for McEnroe. It is often noted that, when Borg was on the opposite side of the net, the normally combustive McEnroe behaved like a choirboy. Indeed, Borg was the only opponent consistently spared his histrionics. McEnroe respected Borg in a way that he respected no one else, but there may have been more to it than that; perhaps, in some subconscious way, McEnroe also knew that he needed Borg - that Borg was the only opponent who could truly motivate him and coax the best out of his game.
McEnroe went on to win only three more grand slam titles, which is something of a minor tragedy when you consider the talent he possessed. (It is hardly going out on a ledge to say that he may have been the single most naturally gifted player ever to pick up a tennis racquet). True, the game changed on McEnroe in the mid-1980s, with the arrival of Ivan Lendl and power tennis, but had Borg stuck around a little longer, McEnroe might have written an even bigger place for himself in the history books.
Compelling stories will be written at this year's Wimbledon; the tournament seldom lacks for drama - but just never anything quite as dramatic as what was seen on Centre Court that mythical Saturday afternoon 25 years ago. It is one memory worth wallowing in.

If you haven't heard of the Cat Daddy by now, you must not have cable (like me) or live in outer space. He's this chill, rock n roll guy who has a show on Animal Planet, called "My Cat from Hell" where he helps pet guardians work through their cat issues. It's a pretty cool show, although I don't like the name. The title itself gives the impression that a cat's poor behavior could be a result of their personality, when really it's a result of the stimuli and environment around them.
The author, a now famous "cat mojo" expert, shares his life's journey in parallel of rescue cats, while becoming clean from drugs and working at an animal shelter.
This book was unexpectedly a heart-warming and encouraging book about following your passion to do what's right. I expected it to be full of mostly tips on how to live with cats, which it did have a few of those, too. Jackson shares his life story and how he came to be a cat mojo expert. The parallels he makes are deeply moving, which I shed a few tears on. It was an easy read that I finished in a few days, and came out the other side with a heart full of gratitude.
Nothing really. A few more specific cat tips would have been nice.
Everyone has their own struggles, during which animals show deep, unwavering love, even if they themselves are suffering. A lot of people choose to mask pain in life. Heck, even I have done this with alcohol a few times. You know, that drink "just to take the edge off of a stressful day"?
Is it fear that we hold? Some are afraid to face the reality we live in, like Jackson did for decades. We all need to take a cue from his book, and realize we cannot shy away from the pain. That pang of guilt in your gut or tear in your eye you have when you see a malnourished, abused, and neglected animals is nothing compared to the physical pain that animal feels, yet they still express love during this pain. The difference is, we have the power to change their outcome. As Jackson said, the love we have for our own animal companion, bottle it and share it with all.
This next quote, I find particularly helpful. I have personally noticed this in my own home with my tabby, Bailey.
Why should you care about this book? If you are someone who doubts your direction or worth in life, or you just love cats, then read this book.
The moment of "Um....I can't remember what to say! Ah!"
Amen to that, Jackson, Amen.

LO MONACO HOUSE
Lugano, Switzerland / 2012
A single family house perched above Lake Lugano, this project consists of two main components: the crystal and the pedestal. With its strong shape, the crystal contains the semi-public functions of the house including the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The pedestal supports the crystal and contains the private functions of the house, such as the bedrooms and studios. Similar to Brancusi's two-piece sculptures, the crystal and the pedestal interoperate, yet retain their individual formal and material character.
Figural Apertures
The crystal features two large figural apertures: one focused on the primary view of the lake to the south, and the other oriented north to the forest. These apertures provide a site of speculation for the project by defamiliarizing the notion of 'window' in domestic architecture as either a punched hole or a transparent wall. By avoiding a strictly legible boundary between opaque and transparent surfaces, the perimeter of the aperture perimeters become intricate and loopy, as if doubled in length along the same area. This figuration resonates outward, drifting across the surfaces of the crystal. Comparable to Frank Lloyd Wright's Freeman House, the two major apertures are flanked along their perimeter by patterns of micro-apertures, challenging the viewer's perception of the boundary between interior and exterior worlds.
Tectonic Fictions
The crystal's opaque surfaces are patterned with extruded seams and deep black channels, similar to subdermal tattoos or scarification. Composite supercomponent joints add further micro-articulation to the surfaces. Supercomponents are never separated at mass edges, but rather follow an unfamiliar, puzzle-piece tectonic logic. Joints are glued on site with structural adhesive to avoid an inadvertent indexing of manufacturing processes.
The polarized discourse between the 'tectonic,' where means of construction is expressed, and the 'atectonic,' where means of construction is fully suppressed, is traded in for a new approach, one where tectonic signs become ambiguous and possibly fictional.

Q: Best algorithm to sort linked list based patient's seriousness and arrival time? Let say a patient serious rank have 1, 2 and 3. What is the best efficient algorithm to sort the patients based on their seriousness and arrival time, if both patient have same seriousness, then arrival time is use to compare.
For example:
Patient name  Seriousness  Arrival time
Abby              3          7:01AM
Ally              3          7.08AM
Alicia            1          7.10AM
Abbygal           2          7.14AM
Annie             1          7.16AM

After sort get result like this:
Patient name  Seriousness  Arrival time
Alicia            1          7.10AM
Annie             1          7.16AM
Abbygal           2          7.14AM
Abby              3          7:01AM
Ally              3          7.08AM

A: To sort linked list, the most often used method is merge sort because it is easy to implement with linked list and it's one of the best comparison-based sorting algorithm.
When you say if both patient have same seriousness, then arrival time is use to compare., it means you need a stable sort, and merge sort is stable, so give it a try.

Having grown up in Sydney for 27 years and our family living on a low budget, we found free things that we could still have fun doing and to tell you the truth I love my mum even more for it to put the time in to still find us these things to do, keep us busy and put a smile on our faces.
As it goes, you don't need all the money in the world to live a good life, you just need the right people around you in the right places.
1.Darling harbour offers a picture perfect walk with views of the harbour, opera house and Luna park plus a great playground of no charge for the kids including some water for them to splash around in. Not far from there is Paddy's Markets and the Royal Botanic gardens that you can have a peaceful afternoon in.
2. There's always a stroll along the Harbour Bridge, have a seat and take some photos on the Opera House steps. Not far is the Art gallery for those who have an eye for pretty things.
3. In Sydney's northern beaches there's Palm Beach, where the famous 'Home and Away' is filmed and played to air, so it's always fun to check that out and if you're lucky it might be filming day!
4. The rocks has a very romantic setting for couples to have some alone time enjoying great views.
5. Penrith offers the Nepean river also with a huge playground for children and a rope swing into the water for the adventurist kids. And don't forget, it's a get place for fishing!!
6.The Blue Mountains offer The Three Sisters in Katoomba which is something to not be missed including a great walk to go with it and not far from there is the Blue Mountain Botanic Gardens which are beautiful.
7. Kiama offers the blowhole that every tourist loves to visit, while they throw on a farmers market also free to attend and if it's the right time of year there's also whale watching for the whole family to love.
8.Fitzroy falls is also another great walking track with an outstanding waterfall to see, they have picnic areas and also a cycling track from Fitzroy falls to Kangeroo Valley and if you're up for walking there's also the sublime point walking track in Wollongong.
9.Wollongong also has the Nan Tien Temple which even kids love, there's a fantastic bike track from Wollongong to Thirroul but be sure to not miss Wollongong's Head Light House, they also have the big Cannons and plenty of interesting history around the place. They host eat street markets of a Thursday night in the heart of Wollongong and the music makes you feel right at home.
10. Cronulla, Sutherland Shire – Gods Country they say with some of the most stunning beaches where you will also find the figure 8 pools in the royal national park after an amazing walk around the place.
11. Bondi beach never disappoints with an awesome atmosphere, the best beach in Sydney with a free pool for the kids. And for the youngsters there's some awesome artists working on some great pieces around the place.
12. Parramatta has James Ruse Water Playground which is free of charge and a great day out for the kids – just don't forget to slip slop slap!
13. If you love to Star gaze then keep a look out as sometimes there might be a 'free entry' weekend to the Sydney Observatory. That's always worth the wait.
Sydney has so much to offer that's free but more than that, its where you will make some of your best memories and friends.
Well what are you waiting for?! Stop reading and get out there!! Its adventure time!


Is anyone else loving the abundance of blueberries right now? As much as I'm counting down the days until cooler weather, I don't want all these glorious blueberries to go away.
Finding ways to use blueberries is part of the fun. I've been baking up a storm. I've even made jam, but more on that later. I hope you'll forgive me for posting another quick bread this week. They are one of my favorite things to bake (and eat!), and they're also a great use of fresh fruits.
I have a longstanding love of banana bread, which is good because I make it relatively often. We have a tendency to buy bananas and not eat them. Anyone else do that? Luckily, overripe bananas are a baker's best friend. And, there are endless variations of baked goods to be made with them.
I added some fresh blueberries to this round of banana bread. I really love the combination of blueberries and bananas. You get two sweet fruit flavors that play together oh-so well.
In a surprising move on my part, I did not add any nuts to this bread. It really doesn't need them, although some almonds sprinkled on top before baking might just be perfectly lovely. I did add a bit of sour cream for a little tart punch and for a lovely texture.
Leave your mixer in the cabinet for this recipe. You can easily mix this bread without it. And, if you prefer, you can make 12 standard-sized muffins instead of a loaf.
Find more quick bread recipes here.
Combine melted butter, sugar, and brown sugar until well-mixed. Mix in egg and vanilla. Stir in bananas and sour cream.
Add flour mixture in 3 or 4 portions, mixing just until combined. Stir in blueberries.
Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake 40-45 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the edges of the bread. Then, transfer bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
Blueberries are one if my favorite things about summer. I always have overripe bananas on the counter or freeze them for muffins or quick bread — you can't beat it! Your bread looks delicious and blueberry jam sounds incredible!
We're also of the sort that continuously buys bananas and don't use them before they go overripe- so this is perfect! And the blueberries now are incredible. Gorgeous recipe.
I've never had the combo of blueberry and banana. It looks and sounds delicious!
I'm totally missing out on blueberry season right now. I've cut back on my berry purchasing because funds were tight this month. And I haven't gone to pick any either! Need to fix that. Loving the blueberries mixed into this banana bread.
You can't ever go wrong with banana bread! Love those blueberries dotted throughout.
Made the Blueberry Banana Bread two days ago… it was absolutely fabulous! Blueberries and Bananas – what a delightful combination.
Followed the recipe exactly… it was very moist inside and the outside was crunchy sweet… thank you so much for posting.
But I loved the old one too!
With this heatwave I haven't been baking at all.
Can't remember if I've done a banana bread with berries?
Took an extra 20-25 minutes to bake without drying out.
This looks great. I may even break from my tried-and-true banana bread recipe to give it a shot!
This blueberry banana bread is delicious. I just made it. The best ever that I have made. Love your recipe. Amazing.
I'm so glad you like it, Tammy!

Kids Are Freaked Out About Climate Doom. Can Bedtime Stories Help?
A new crop of books have an empowering message.
Jason PlautzMay+June 2022 Issue
When author Katherine Applegate was touring schools for her book Wishtree—a novel on prejudice for tweens, told through an oak tree's perspective—students kept wanting to talk about the climate crisis. They were stressed about whether polar bears would die, panicked about the world they're inheriting. Their questions inspired Applegate, but she was daunted: Her previous books have dealt with heavy topics like animal cruelty and poverty. Climate collapse, though? That's a challenge.
But it's one that children are grappling with. A 2021 worldwide survey of 10,000 young people published in The Lancet found that 59 percent were very or extremely worried about climate change and 75 percent felt the future is frightening. The publishing industry has embraced the mood: According to Nielsen's publishing market research, sales of children's books related to the environment rose 69 percent between 2019 and 2021. These aren't just tales about animal tea parties or Truffula trees. Inspired by Greta Thunberg, these books capture kids' anger and despair, and are loaded with calls to action.
Take Sita Brahmachari's Where the River Runs Gold, a 2019 middle-grade novel set in a dystopian future where bees have died off and children must labor to pollinate crops. Or Lily Williams' picture book series on extinction, If Animals Disappeared, launched in 2017. We Are Water Protectors, a 2020 picture book by Carole Lindstrom, illustrated by Michaela Goade, and inspired by the Dakota Access Pipeline protests, was a bestseller.
Children are "so much more sophisticated and enlightened and aware and idealistic" than we assume.
Applegate—who jokes that her "default setting is pure and utter pessimism"—tackled those emotions in her latest book, Willodeen. Targeted to kids ages 8 to 12, it's set in the village of Perchance, with fantastical animals like the flying hummingbears and stinky screechers. Perchance is also beset by disasters and droughts. The title character's parents are killed in a catastrophic wildfire. "It almost seemed the earth was mad at the lot of us," Willodeen laments.
Mental health research has shown that focusing on doom and gloom can paralyze people into inaction, while more inspirational and action-oriented work can be motivating. To that end, Applegate says she wasn't worried about creating a world fraught with eco-crises—children are "so much more sophisticated and enlightened and aware and idealistic" than we assume, she says. Instead, that backdrop sets the stage for a hopeful triumph, as Willodeen perseveres to advocate for troubled species to uncaring politicians.
Another model comes from Coco's Fire, co-written with the Climate Committee of the Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry, a think tank of practicing psychiatrists. When Coco, a young squirrel, learns about climate change–fueled disasters, an inner fire symbolizing her anxiety starts burning red. As she meets other activists and starts cleaning up her own life, it cools into a blue flicker, one that helps her "get more involved, not upset." Jeremy Wortzel co-wrote the book with his fiancée, Lena Champlin, as an alternative to the images of a lone polar bear or sinking cities that children might encounter. The flame is inspired by the visual metaphors that psychologists use to introduce children to big concepts like death. "That traditional trope of scaring people into agency, that we're in trouble and you've got to act now…doesn't help everybody," Wortzel tells me. "We tried to get to the root of what that anxiety that spurs people is actually doing."
Will a scared squirrel or a magical village really soothe kids' existential dread? The climate crisis is what philosopher Timothy Morton calls a "hyperobject," something so unmanageable it overwhelms people's minds. The mental health community has no official guidance on treating climate anxiety, but studies have found that individual actions help patients cope. Coco's Fire follows a six-step "Climate Talk" guidance developed by the psychiatrist group. First, they say, introduce climate change and find out what children already know. That's followed by simple scientific explanations and a clear (not sugarcoated) discussion of what it means, reasons to hope, and ways to get involved. The talk ends with a reminder of the wonders of the natural world.
Leslie Davenport, a therapist and author of the kids' climate anxiety book All the Feelings Under the Sun, says the conversations look different based on age. Kids younger than 6, she says, tend to develop an innate sense of stewardship for nature. As kids become aware of climate news, Davenport focuses on small actions like recycling or driving less. Around age 10, she says, the "despair" creeps in and the conversation needs to evolve. Narratives about triumph in the face of realistic crises, she says, are therapeutic. "A story that is purely apocalyptic isn't helpful, but one where emotions are acknowledged and kids can find ways to navigate their feelings and get involved, that can break through," Davenport says.
Goade says that was the goal of We Are Water Protectors. The idea of Indigenous people fighting an oil pipeline (represented as a black snake) sounds overwhelming. But she and Lindstrom felt that it was a perfect story to offer inspiration in the face of the insurmountable. In virtual book talks, students eagerly asked what they could do to help the water protectors.
"As children's book authors, someone once said we are 'peddlers of hope,'" Goade says. "That can be a bit of a challenge when we're feeling underwater with the current state of things. But it's also a really amazing thing."

I am reminded of the hostility that the Welsh language and its speakers experienced, now, largely overcome, apart from in a  few die-hard opponents who fail/refuse to understand that it really isn't that scary to have a bi-lingual society, and, no, they're not talking about you (a state of mind that I describe as "arranoia").

Trade headlines dominated market action and drove the DAX index 0.4% higher on Monday as President Trump's extension to the March 1st trade deadline relieved the index sensitive to Sino-US trade developments. Despite trade optimism, upside on the DAX should be fairly limited given Germany's soft economic data and risk of US auto tariffs on the EU. Germany releases consumer confidence report today while price action on the DAX index should be led by trade headlines and cues from global markets as the day stores Brexit updates from PM Theresa May and a statement by Fed Chairman Powell.
The DAX index managed to hold above the 11500 level to end at 11505 on Monday. Though the technical outlook remains positive, a shooting star candlestick formation on the daily chart suggests bullish momentum has weakened and sellers have gained control with strong support found at 11380. A move below this level alongside an RSI reading below the 50 mid-line would suggest further downside pressure towards the 11270 level.

Some of you may have already spotted a little detox-preview on my Instagram account (@vickyheiler), and so I thought it was time to give you a more detailed update after completing my first 2 days of nothing but liquids with Detox Delight. First things first: I know detoxing is experiencing a certain hype right now, and I know some of you are already sick of hearing about it. However, I am the kind of person that always needs to experience things in order to form an opinion. I don't listen to judgements about other people, I try to get to know them. I don't believe others when they say somethings doesn't taste good, I like to try it myself. Naturally the same goes for detoxing!
– Weight Loss: I'll be honest and skip the blah blah, I think it is a good thing to drop a pound or two before all the holiday feasting begins. As always, I am fine with my body, but I would be lying if I didn't like the thought of my jeans fitting a bit looser (like just about every other girl out there, I guess).
– Timing: I am doing the juice cleanse together with Kathi and this week we both only had meetings and appointments on 2 days, plus her boyfriend is currently studying abroad and Mike is out of town for 3 of the 5 days, which makes things a lot easier (as in: not watching someone eat amazing food while you're sipping on juice).
– Skin (!!): You guys know I have eczema and am always looking for ways to make it better. Whether it is my skin care routine, fitness or diet – I try to make little adjustments that may have an effect on my skin. One of the many promising effects of detoxing is glowy, fresh skin, shiny hair and healthy nails. Sounds good to me!
– Energy: Lately, I've been dreading to get out of bed in the morning A LOT . Not because I don't want to go to work (I love my job), but because I simply feel exhausted and tired. Almost all the time. While you usually get super tired the first few days of detoxing, towards the end your body adjusts. Supposedly people even wake-up bright and early on day 5 of the detox program, filled with energy and drive.
– Discipline: And lastly, I wanted to test my will-power and discipline. Going 5 days without a single bite of solid food seems kind of crazy if you ask me, so I wanted to see if I could do it!
All in all, I am totally confident that Kathi and I will pull through with the 5 days. I am excited to finish today with my soup and then we'll already be half way done. As of this morning, my weight was also down 1.7kg, but I blame that on the 6 L of liquids that we're currently drinking each day.
*a big thank you to Detox Delight for supporting our detox!
..ich finds so schade, dass es immer vermarktet wird und damit in verbindung gerät mit abnehmen – dabei ist der eigentliche zweck doch das entgiften des körpers, was in allen anderen punkten widergespiegelt wird. für mich haben dadurch alle reviews einen kleinen negativen beigeschmack :/ dabei geht es ja einher mit den fasten-kuren, die es schon seit längerer zeit gibt und genaugenommen genau das gleiche sind.
ich glaube, ich verstehe was du meinst, aber ich denke nicht, dass alle die eine solche Kur machen nur das Abnehmen als Motivator sehen. Denn jedem ist bestimmt auch bewusst, dass nach einem Tag mit "normalem" Essen nach der Kur das Gewicht schnell wieder oben ist. Alle Mädls/Frauen mit denen ich bis jetzt gesprochen haben, heben im Anschluss an das Detoxen vor allem die tolle Haut und Energie hervor 🙂 Ich denke wenn man das Gefühl selber mal erlebt hat, weiß man, dass das Gewicht zur Nebensache wird und die anderen Benefits eindeutig überwiegen. Trotzdem wollte ich so ehrlich mit euch sein, und zugeben, dass natürlich ein paar Kilo weniger auf der Waage auch Spaß machen.
Also I'm pretty sure the headaches came from the caffeine withdrawal. If you drink a lot of coffee your body adjusts to it and as soon as you take this "drug" away, your body reacts.
All the best for the rest of your detox!!!
digital highfive for you girls for doing this during a freezing cold winter month … i did it once in summer when it was super hot and my body usually wouldn't even require any proper food – and still i struggled with it!
Cant wait to read about your final report!
We're definitely feeling MUCH better today on day 3 – I am hoping it'll only get better from now on 🙂 And of course we'll keep you updated with the results!
PS: How cute is that packaging!?
Ich wünsche euch noch ganz viel Erfolg beim Durchhalten, aber ihr habt es ja schon fast geschafft :))) Immer positiv!
I really love this blog but hate it when a product which is obviously snake oil hailed as a wonder treatment. A scientist explains here http://wholehealthsource.blogspot.de/2014/03/the-ultimate-detox-your-kidneys.html why all the glitzy things with the word "detox" slapped on them are BS.
I don't necessarily agree with you. I do think the kidneys do an amazing job at actually "detoxing" our body, and possibly "detox" is even the wrong word for what I am currently doing. However, I do think that these types of juice cleanses certainly give your body a break, allow you to take a few days to revaluate your diet and eating habits, and mostly: learn a lot! I am finishing up on day 3 right now and actually just returned from the gym. I can tell my body is doing really well with the juices, and in all honesty, I don't care if it is specifically toxins that I am getting rid of. But whatever this juice cleanse is doing to me, I feel amazing and my body is healthy.
265€ für eine 5 Tage Kur finde ich schon recht happig.
Für das Geld kann man die Säfte und Suppen auch selbst zubereiten und das dann auch mit frischen Zutaten.
Ich verstehe nicht warum Ihr die Sachen kauft , vor allem da du schon so viele Rezepte zum selber machen gepostet hast ?
Wenn gesundheitliche Probleme wie Neurodermitis und chronische Müdigkeit bestehen würde ich empfehlen mal einen Heilpraktiker oder Ayurvedaspezialisten zu konsultieren 😉 nur so als Tipp da gibt's tolle Entgiftungsprogramme die auch auf die entsprechende Konstitution und Befindlichkeiten zugeschnitten werden.
klaro ist das viel Geld. Aber ich sag's dir ganz ehrlich: mich hat es total interessiert! Ich wollte das einfach selber mal testen und am eigenen Körper erleben. Ich habe durch die Bank nur Positives gehört und freue mich schon wenn ich euch nach meinen 5 Tagen mehr berichten kann!
Vielen Dank für diesen intensiven Einblick! Ich hab vor kurzen auch eine Fünf-Tage-Detox gemacht. Allerdings mir festem Essen und einfach vegan, clean, kein Salz, Weizenmehl, Zucke etc.
in deinem Post erwähnst du, dass du Probleme damit hast morgens aus dem Bett zu kommen. Meine Ärztin hat mir vor ein paar Tagen erzählt, dass die meisten ihrer Patienten, die momentan an Symptomen wie Müdigkeit und Unlust leide, einen hohen Mangel an Vitamin D haben. Vllt solltest du das mal checken lassen. Bei mir hat es sehr viel geholfen, dass ich Vitamin D jetzt extra zu mir nehme.
danke dir für den Tipp! Werde ich auf jeden Fall abchecken lassen. Hab auch schon gehört, dass die Schlappheit mit Vitamin B Mangel zu tun haben kannn, daher nehm' ich Vitamin B Komplex seit einiger Zeit. Aber wegen dem D-Mangel check ich gleich mal.

FAIR PARK

40. Fair Park Coliseum
Located northeast of Cotton Bowl Stadium next to the Horse Barn, Fair Park Coliseum was built in 1955 with the capability of seating seven thousand people. The first major event it hosted was the premiere of the National Finals Rodeo in 1959. The founders of the competition wanted to use the event as a way to determine the world champion of steer wrestling, bull riding, tie-down roping, saddle bronc riding, barrel racing, team roping, and bareback bronc riding. The rodeo was a complete success and continued to call Dallas home until 1961 when it moved to Los Angeles.

The St. Louis Braves played in Missouri until the National Hockey League decided to adopt the city into its organization. The team then moved to Fair Park and became the Dallas Black Hawks as part of the Central Hockey League. The minor league team made its big debut in 1967, proceeding to win four Adams Cup Championships. Throughout their tenure, the Black Hawks remained the hockey representatives of the city. In 1982, the team dissolved itself two years before the league came to a close. The Dallas Freeze arrived on the scene in 1992, but only stayed at the coliseum for one season. The following year, the NHL's Minnesota North Stars moved into the area and became the Dallas Stars. This time, however, the team claimed Reunion Arena as its home.
A member of the American Basketball Association, the Dallas Chaparrals arrived in 1967 but received disinterest from the public. The owners changed the name to the Texas Chaparrals during 1970 in an attempt to become a regional team. The players competed in Dallas, Fort Worth, and Lubbock. Ultimately, the effort ended in complete failure. Instead of returning to Fair Park, they split their games between Dallas Convention Center Arena and Moody Coliseum. The team's failure to get into the playoffs for the 1972 season led to the owners selling the Chaparrals to businessmen Angelo Drossos and Red McCombs. Upon the purchase, the team was renamed the San Antonio Spurs.
The year of 2011 brought the arrival of the Assassination City Roller Derby. The rollerskating team was originally founded in Plano during 2005 as part of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association. Although the team gained lots of popularity while performing at the coliseum, the players left at the end of 2013.
During the state fair, the coliseum has hosted several attractions. They include horse shows, haunted houses, and live entertainment. Currently, the place is being used by retailers, merchants, and local businesses. The back of the building displayed sand sculptures for a couple of years until they were replaced by a stage for musical performances.

Title: Sun hats, sundowners, and tropical hygiene: managing settler bodies and minds in British East and South-Central Africa, 1890-1939
Author: Wells, Julia M.
Periodical: African Historical Review (ISSN 1753-2531)
Geographic terms: Kenya
Subjects: colonists
Link: https://doi.org/10.1080/17532523.2016.1281875
Abstract: The protection of white settler bodies and minds against the tropical climate was a central concern in Britain's African territories. Despite substantial medical advances from the 1890s onwards, and the continuing colonial narrative of European medical power and superiority, white settlers in the tropics were viewed as profoundly vulnerable throughout the early twentieth century. Tropical hygiene advice and equipment developed in response, with every aspect of daily life commented upon by experts in guidebooks and medical advice books. This article explores how white settlers in British East and South-Central Africa, primarily Kenya and Rhodesia, negotiated and adapted the highly prescriptive body management recommendations found in the advice literature. It considers three strands of advice: dress, 'sanitary segregation', and 'moral' matters (including alcohol consumption, sexual behaviour, personal hygiene, and mental wellbeing). It argues that settlers did not simply replicate professional advice, and that, although influenced by recommended hygienic measures, they managed their bodies in far more dynamic and variable ways, adapting advice to produce individualised body management regimes.
