How School Administrators Are Dealing With Incidents Of Hate : NPR
Good article with number of telling examples, along with a description of an ADL program in action:
One of the gold standards in teaching tolerance is a program run by the Anti-Defamation League called "A World Of Difference." The number of schools calling and asking for the program has jumped five-fold recently. Brookline High School reached out after being hit with two incidents of racist and anti-Semitic graffiti. Administrators recruited 30 students to go through three full days of training — to learn to run tolerance workshops for their peers.
"Ok, folks! Showtime!" bellows the ADL's New England Senior Training Consultant Rob Jones from the front of a gymnasium. His dreadlocks swinging out from under a felt fedora, Jones bounces around the circle of students, grilling them on what they've learned from the exercises they've done so far and getting them ready to be leaders instead of participants. They begin by practicing how they will introduce themselves to classmates when they run a workshop.

"My name is Josh Gladstone," starts one. "I'm doing this program because I have seen many issues at the high school, and even though we attempt to have a couple of assemblies, I don't think it's enough."
The students role-play and rehearse everything from ice-breakers to exercises meant to encourage empathy and bystander intervention. Jones coaches and corrects. "You don't wanna preach," he tells one. "You do not wanna come off as better than [them]… like you really need to help them. We've all laughed at jokes we shouldn't have laughed at and made comments we shouldn't have made. We're all trying to learn together."

Indeed, even in their left-leaning "bubble" — as some Brookline students call it — they've seen an uptick in hate.
Junior Talia Vos, who moved to Brookline from Mexico, says she felt it the day after the election. She was in the hallway between classes and yelled out to a friend –- in Spanish — to save her a seat.
"A group of boys behind me, they started chanting, 'build a wall!'" she recalls. "It's just these new social norms of how we treat each other."
After 30 years of doing this work, Rob Jones worries that many of the communities that need these programs the most are also in denial.
"Certain populations just won't talk about it because they don't get it — they don't get it," he says. "They're like, 'we don't have any issues.' But boy, they have a lot of bigoted behavior."
Along with prevention, many schools these days are also quickly learning the art of "the healing response."
In Brookline, after the hateful graffiti was found, students banded together to re-paint the table that was vandalized to "reclaim it from hate." Other schools have called in professional facilitators to moderate a "community conversation."
Following the KKK graffiti in Attleboro, dozens of students mobilized to counter the hate with kindness. They wrote "love notes" to each of the high school's nearly 2000 students, staffers and teachers.

Q: Can Magento be integrated with CakePHP? Can Magento be integrated with CakePHP?
If my site is developed in CakePHP. Can I do the product module including shopping cart in Magento?

A: Yes, it can. For example:
require_once 'app/Mage.php';
umask(0);

Mage::app();
Mage::getSingleton('core/session', array('name'=>'frontend'));

$cart = Mage::helper('checkout/cart')->getCart()->getItemsCount();
echo 'Items count: ' . $cart;

Look at these articles:
http://www.exploremagento.com/magento/run-magento-code-outside-of-magento.php
http://blog.chapagain.com.np/magento-how-to-run-magento-code-in-an-external-website/

A: can make the Mage class working for me in pure php code with the above example. But you know Cakephp has its own routing mechanism. I have magento installed in the root and trying to add another application built with cakephp - that application has its own data structure & database (mainly be used for custom reporting and some tracking stuffs) but will share some data from magento (that is the main site)

A: I managed to do a hack (and there where no other way to do that).
The hack is you need to put the "function __()" inside in line 93 of Magento app/code/core/Mage/Core/functions.php
    if (!function_exists('__')) {
        function _ () { .... }
    }

and you need to do the same for "DS" in app/Mage.php line 23
    if(!defined('DS')) {}

then you can just use the Mage class and do all the operation to Megento.

Two deer hunters were not having any luck so they asked for advice from an old-timer. "You can just about guarantee a deer if you learn to hunt with dogs," he said. The two hunters got a trained deer dog and hit the woods. At the end of the day and still empty-handed, one hunter said to the other, "Maybe tomorrow we'll get one if we throw the dog out of a higher treestand."

Neuroradiology is the medical subspecialty that evaluates the various disorders of the central nervous system, including the brain, head and neck regions, and spine. Primarily using the powerful cross-sectional techniques of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT scan), they also perform contrast myelography and image directed therapeutic injections in the spine. Angiography is used to diagnose vascular lesions of the central nervous system, which in some instances may be treated by catheter directed techniques.

William Newmarch
William Newmarch (28 January 1820 – 23 March 1882) was an English banker, economist and statistician.[1]
Born at Thirsk, Yorkshire, Newmarch went to school in York; as a young man, he held posts as a clerk there. A clerk for a stamp distributor, he moved on to the Yorkshire Fire and Life Office, and then to the banking house Leatham, Few, and Co., in Wakefield (1843–1846). He then moved to London and worked for three financial institutions:
the Agra Bank (1846–1851)
secretary to the Globe Insurance Company (1851–1862)
chief officer in the banking-house of Glyn, Mills & Co. (1862–1881)
Newmarch took an active part in the Royal Statistical Society, of which he was one of the honorary secretaries, editor of its journal, and President (1869–1871), and the Political Economy Club. He was also elected a fellow of the Royal Society.[2]
Newmarch died at Torquay on 23 March 1882 and was buried at West Norwood Cemetery.
In early life Newmarch published a Guide to York, undertook correspondence in the Sheffield Iris, and gave lectures. He contributed articles to magazines and newspapers. His knowledge of banking was displayed before the select parliamentary committee on the Bank Acts in 1857.[2]
Newmarch collaborated with Thomas Tooke in the two final volumes of his History of Prices and was responsible for most of the work in them. For 19 years he wrote a survey of the commercial history of the year in The Economist.[2]
After Newmarch's death, friends founded a Newmarch Lectureship in economic science and statistics at University College, London.[2] Arthur Bowley, Josiah Stamp, Udny Yule, and Theodore Gregory were amongst the lecturers.

I got to listen to the coyotes howling this morning as I packed up. I can only assume it was the same pack I saw last night. Had intended to get going a little early, but I didn't even get out of my bag until almost 8a. I was just so cozy and warm.
No matter, I was still about 20 minutes early for the light on Kaweah, so I ended up hanging out below the pass waiting on the sun anyways. Great captures today…incredible pass. Kaweah Gap is without doubt one of the most stunningly beautiful places I've ever seen. I was moving at a snail's pace all morning, because I kept stopping to take photos. The west side was even more beautiful. Hamilton Lake is a prime campsite. I imagine it's packed throughout the summer months, but I saw just one person from Big Arroyo to Eagle View, which is a mere mile from the parking area. I had this incredible place almost to myself. Actually, I had almost the entire 62 miles from Whitney to the Sherman Tree all to myself. Fall: the High Sierra's best-kept secret.
The pit toilet at Hamilton Lake is, like most pit toilets, a glorified cathole. That said, it's a hole in the ground that's fit for the Gods. And it came just in time. I was thinking to myself during the descent, "Dang, I need to dig a cathole soon. Wait, maybe there will be one down at Hamilton." Eureka! And boy, what a view. Again, undoubtedly one of the best I've ever enjoyed while taking care of business.
A thick smokey haze engulfed the valley beyond Hamilton Lake, and it persisted almost all the way to Crescent Meadow. I wonder if they were doing a controlled burn. There were no signs, but then again there was nothing indicating a wildfire either. It eventually cleared, but not until I'd reached the parking lot. I enjoyed a snack and snapped some photos at the HST sign before finishing the last 2.5 miles through a maze of well-traveled trails to reach the General Sherman Tree, and the official end of this trip. On the way, just a quarter mile from the parking lot, a coyote hopped out onto the trail in front of me. She ran along ahead of me for a few hundred feet before leisurely dipping off into the trees. I don't think she ever realized I was behind her. She was so beautiful, and certainly about the last thing I expected to see so near cars and people, especially with so much wilderness around her. It happened really quickly; I never even reached for my camera.
After the first couple trail junctions, there were no more signs that indicated the way to Sherman. Instead, I followed signs for the Congress Trail. I think it's a loop. When I reached it, I turned right which got me to the General Sherman Tree. I dunno if left would've been faster. I reached the Sherman Tree at about a quarter to 7p. Just enough time for photos. They're dark, but they'll do!
I freakin' love working out all of the troublesome logistics on the front end. There is nothing – and I mean nothing – like hiking back to the car and actually being totally done. There is nothing to plan or work out, nothing to rob me of that precious moment. It's so satisfying.


The mission to the 1km-wide space rock, known as Ryugu, could provide clues not only to the asteroid's formation but to the formation of our solar system.
The Japanese space agency have now selected dates for the deployment of smaller crafts from Hayabusa-2 .
The Hayabusa-2 spacecraft arrived at the asteroid, some 186 million miles from Earth, in June. Since then, engineers have been working on plans to explore Ryugu's surface.
The first will fall on 21 September, when small robots will hop out of Hayabusa-2 and onto the asteroid's surface, exploring it and sending images back home.


The Heaven giveaway is now closed. Check back on May 12 for the next giveaway.
On Valentine's Day 2007 my husband of 25 years died very unexpectedly on his 50th birthday. As you can imagine I was and still am devastated. His journey to our eternal home led me in search of a book so that I might study and become more knowledgeable about Heaven. At a Mardel's book store a wonderful Christian employee led me to your book Heaven. He prayed with me as he could tell how sorrowful and grief stricken I was. It was a wonderful experience. I immediately began to read your book. What a comfort! I cannot tell you how it helped me.
Here's Randy talking about what the responses to the Heaven book have meant to him.
The deadline to enter the Heaven giveaway is Friday, April 25, and 3 randomly drawn winners will be announced in a blog post on Monday, April 28.
So if you haven't read Heaven yet, or even if you have, I hope you'll enter for the chance to win a signed copy. And if you'd like to share the book, for the month of April, Heaven is also on sale at the Eternal Perspective Ministries website for $14.99 (retail price $24.99, normally $17.49 from EPM). Each copy will contain a bookplate signed by Randy.
It's the perfect time to buy Heaven as a gift for Mother's Day. For every copy sold, $7 will be specifically designated to World Relief Mozambique's 2008 Child and Maternal Health Program. You'll be getting a gift for mom, and helping out needy moms and their children in Mozambique.
Tragically, nearly one fifth of Mozambique's children die needlessly before they reach their fifth birthday. But World Relief workers and volunteers are helping village women to understand the causes of illnesses and make changes to keep their children healthy. Faith and trust in a loving God is growing as mothers learn to practice better care for their families.
We're especially excited to help these moms because two private contributors to World Relief have announced they will match—dollar for dollar—the first $50,000 given to the Mozambique program!
If you would like to donate further funds to World Relief, you may send your contribution to EPM and 100% will be given to the designated ministry.


Catherine Hunter has lived her life in luxury. Fine clothes, exotic cuisine and the best of what life has to offer. But when her father promises her hand in marriage to the son of a business colleague, the fifteen-year-old decides it is time to take matters into her own hands. No more being the trophy daughter of her government official father – Catherine would rather be homeless and free rather than the privileged daughter living in gilded cage.
And so Catherine Hunter becomes Cat, a homeless boy who stows away aboard a starship in attempt to flee Anglya and leave all means behind. But life as Cat brings its own set of complications. Pretending to be a boy is more difficult than Cat envisioned and the hold of those who run Anglya reach far beyond the borders.
This book has a lot of promise. The idea of a privileged girl being the one to lead a rebellion using inside knowledge is different from most of the dystopian novels I've read of late. And I liked the idea of the storms which fill the skies and the world in which this novel was set. However this book just fell a little short for me.
Cat was a hard character for me to like. I didn't feel any sort of connection to her and despite all she goes though – it all felt a little easy. From the moment she ditches her father to being a homeless boy and then becoming a full-fledged member of the Stormdancer crew it only took around ten pages. There needed to be more struggle. More moments where there was some uncertainty as to whether she would be able to overcome whatever was holding her down at the time. But throughout the novel, every thing comes so easily and there is no obstacle which isn't overcome within the space of a few pages. Cat is also rather judgemental yet defensive. She is fairly demanding with an air of entitlement. Even when she is begging for forgiveness, she orders others around in the same breath. It just made her unlikable. Even when trying to understand the difficulties she must be going through she made it so hard to be on her side.
As for the romance? I wanted to like Cat and Fox as a couple. How adorable as their names together?! But despite knowing that these two were going to be each other's main romantic interest, I felt zero chemistry between them. Ben and Matt had more tension between them than Cat and Fox. I'm not saying romance needed to be the focus but I wanted something more than Cat's frequent blushing and constant arguing to show some kind of relationship between the two.
I wanted more from Take Back the Skies. More about the different world in which the characters live. More struggles for the characters and suspense over what will happen to them. More romance between the leads. I loved the idea of the storms defending borders but thought that idea could have been explored more. The characters were a little simplistic and shallow but had potential to be more interesting. I felt this book told me more than it showed me and by that I mean instead of getting to choose how I felt about things and people, I was told in black and white. I wanted to be able to form my own opinions from memories and actions rather than being explicitly told. For me this is a book which conceptually has it yet fell below my expectations with regards to execution.
The ending threw a bit of a curve ball and whilst I'm curious as to where this series is going to go next, I don't think I'll be continuing. This isn't a bad book it just didn't deliver the story I was hoping it would. As a young author, Lucy Saxon has a lot of promise and is one I'll be on the look out for in the future.
I've got a review copy of this too, I've only read like 70 pages yet but I've heard really negative reviews about it so it's taking me ages to get through! I think almost every review I've read has agreed that Lucy Saxon has potential, which is great! Hopefully I can finish it soon.
Unfortunately I haven't read a single good review of this yet 🙁 *sobs* It makes me feel so bad for the author. As a teen writer I can understand how hard it must be for her, but then again, I'd want to be judged alongside other authors, and not given a free pass just for being a teen. Hopefully your next read will be better!
I really loved Take Back the Skies – which I totally wasn't expecting. I'd read quite a few bad reviews beforehand so maybe my expectations were lowered. I thought it was a really fast-paced fun read though, and I loved Cat.
I actually didn't mind it either. Of course it wasn't without it's problems, but I strangely found it really entertaining and hard to put down. The ending completely undid most of that for me. It was strange to say the least. I thought two of the characters might have been gay, did you get that feeling too? It seemed to hint a little, but didn't reveal any secret relationship or anything though.
I felt the same here, although I did enjoy the whole world that the book was set it (my first steampunk so obviously). Definitely very easy. I would have liked a lot more in the start before she even left, how do we even know that her life at home is as bad as she thinks it is? Plus that ending really really annoyed me. I wanted to throw the book on the floor after that epilogue. I definitely think that this book would be a whole lot better if it was marketed towards Middle Grade readers. It's not enough detail or anything to be a full YA novel. I heard that the rest of the books in the series are going to be set in the other countries!
Gaah, I've really just been seeing bad review after bad review and now I don't even know if I want to pick it up. My review copy has been staring back at me for awhile so I'll have to think about it. I'm curious about this ending though so maybe I'll just skip the middle haha. Amazing review though!
Whilst I wasn't the biggest fan – I know there are a lot of people out there who really liked it. I think Kelly over at DivaBookNerd really enjoyed it. Don't let my thoughts put you off.

The pison pins are made of special alloying steel. The piston pin surface is hardened and quenched, and for this reason the piston pins have high strength, hardness and ideal geometry accuracy after machining. During the whole service life the piston pins preserve stability of their mechanical and physical properties.
The modern European equipment allowed us to improve the accuracy of the piston pin machining and change its fit in the piston. Before that we had to ensure a press fit from 0 to 0,01 mm between the cold piston and piston pin, but now the clearance is from 0,003 to 0,015 mm. The fit does not require the piston heating for the piston pin installation.
The fixed piston pin is anchored to the connecting rod small end with a screw and bolts and pressed. This type of piston pins can rotate only in the piston bosses.
The floating piston pin is free to rotate both in the connecting rod and in the piston bosses. Generally it is secured against axial movement by circlips. The floating pin ensures a uniform load of the parts and prevents one-sided wear.

Ribe est une localité de la municipalité d'Esbjerg, en région Syddanmark (Danemark du Sud), à l'ouest du Jutland, au Danemark.

Tout au long du Moyen Âge et même au début des temps modernes, Ribe a été l'un des plus importants ports de la mer du Nord. Bien qu'elle ait aujourd'hui perdu de son rayonnement, elle a conservé le charme de ses nombreuses maisons de pêcheurs et commerçants, et possède encore un patrimoine architectural remarquable avec, notamment, la Riberhus, sa cathédrale.

Histoire
Fondée au début du , Ribe est la plus ancienne ville du Danemark.

L'essor
En 860, quand Ansgar, l'archevêque de Hambourg-Brême débuta la mission de déployer le Christianisme vers les pays nordiques, il demanda au roi du Danemark, Horik II, de construire à Ribe la première église scandinave. La ville était à ce moment-là la ville de Scandinavie la plus importante en matière de commerce et de négoce, cette importance s'est accrue après le passage de l'archevêque. En 948, le premier diocèse danois y sera établi. Mais la construction de la cathédrale telle qu'on la connaît aujourd'hui ne commença qu'en 1150 pour se finir cent ans plus tard, en 1250.

La fin d'une longue période de prospérité
Ribe a beaucoup grandi en taille et en importance jusqu'au , quand une succession d'événements malheureux marquèrent la fin de son essor : la ville a brûlé en 1580, a été touchée par des inondations ( au-dessus du niveau des mers en ), frappée par des épidémies de peste à quatre reprises (un tiers de la population décimée en 1659), et a vu son port ensablé, freinant considérablement le développement de son commerce.

Aujourd'hui, Ribe n'apparaît plus sur les cartes du commerce, mais ses habitations du  font d'elle une destination touristique très populaire.

Bâtiments et installations
La ville s'étend au nord et au sud de la rivière Ribe Å, un barrage a donc été construit pour en faciliter la traversée. Le prolongement de ce dernier dans Ribe constitue la rue principale de la ville. Des échelles à poissons ont été placées à proximité du barrage pour permettre aux poissons de remonter le cours d'eau.

Le premier hôtel de ville danois, celui de Ribe, se trouve sur la place Von Støckens. Ce bâtiment fut construit en 1496, mais ne fut utilisé comme hôtel de ville qu'à partir de 1708.

Géographie
Ribe est située au sud-ouest du Jutland, près de la mer du Nord et de l'embouchure de la rivière Ribe Å. À  au nord-ouest se trouve la ville d'Esbjerg, et à  à l'est se trouve Kolding.

La superficie de la ville couvre .

Environnement
La ville de Ribe abrite quelques remarquables espèces d'oiseaux comme la cigogne blanche européenne, qui construit ses nids au sommet des cheminées des habitations. Cette espèce disparaît progressivement en raison de l'extension des aménagements agricoles en Europe, ainsi que de la sécheresse de son aire d'hivernage en Afrique.

It is well known that one really good way to get extremely rich is to hold a large concentrated position, often as the founder, in the stock of a company that realizes extraordinary success. Another way, generally viewed to be less reliable, is to win the lottery. In a very interesting research report, finance professor Hendrik Bessembinder argues that these two paths are actually very similar. Professor Bessembinder collected data on monthly rates of return on every stock that has traded on an American stock exchange any time over the last 90 years. The total number of such stocks is 25,782 and the total number of monthly observations is 3.52 million (note that very few companies were around for the full 1,080 month period, so that the total number of observation is much smaller than 1,080 times 25,782).
While the average monthly real return is positive, the median return is negative. That is, more often than not, the real monthly return on an individual stock is less than zero. The reason the average is positive is that sometimes there is a large gain (in statistical parlance, the distribution has a positive skew). Stock picking, like playing the lottery, involves lots of small losses and an occasional large gain. This skew holds both for monthly returns and compounded longer-term returns. In fact, the lifetime real return for most companies is negative.
Another result reported by the professor is that the entire cumulative wealth generated by the stock market over the past ninety years, $31.5 trillion, was generated by just 4% of the companies. Thus, if you adopt a strategy of picking individual stocks, you have to be really good to be successful, because only a small fraction of stocks are likely to turn out to be big winners.
I think the main implication of this research, and certainly the author's main conclusion, is that investors should maximize the diversification in their portfolios. One reason is that diversification reduces the volatility or risk of a portfolio. A second reason, highlighted by this research, is that broad diversification increases the probability that your portfolio will contain at least one or more of the winning companies.
The standard academic assumption is that the natural logarithm of the stock price is normally distributed (this means that the stock price itself is lognormal). Many people have noted that assumption cannot be correct, at least not for daily price moves. The reason is that every once in a while, every few hundred or thousand trading days, there is a very large movement in a stock price, much greater than could occur under the normal distribution. This is the proverbial "ten standard deviation" event. Thus, many sceptics argue that the "true" distribution for stock prices and returns has much fatter tails than the normal.
Unfortunately, the professor's results don't shed much light on this issue. His major finding is that stock return distributions are positively skewed, with the degree of skew higher for longer compounding periods and greater volatility. This finding does not imply non-normality; in fact, it arises even if the monthly return distribution is normal (and therefore with zero skew)! To illustrate how this can be, the professor assumes a normal distribution for the monthly return and considers drawing randomly from this distribution and computing compounded returns. He assumes a monthly mean return of 0.8% and various levels of monthly volatility. He considers a range of investment horizons from one year to ten years.
For single stock portfolios, the historical average monthly volatility is about 18%. The simulated results using 18% monthly volatility show only 24% of ten-year returns are positive. The historical average monthly volatility for well-diversified portfolios is more like 6%. The simulated results using 6% volatility show that 72% of returns are positive.
The simulated results broadly mimic the historical data. Both individual stocks and diversified portfolios exhibit positive skew that increases with the compounding period. However, this skew is much greater for individual stocks than for broad market portfolios. This is due to much greater volatility for individual stocks. Individual stocks have a large chance of a negative return, over any compounding period. The key point is that well-diversified portfolios have less volatility and a much greater chance of a positive long-term return. Individual stock picking is playing a lottery, investing in diversified portfolios is not.

This is an innovative pedagogical approach that integrates science and technology into a range of topics. The success of the STEM program is tied to the emphasis on hands-on exploration, which stimulates higher-order thinking. Students develop a deeper understanding of how science and engineering work in the real world.
A bonus for French comprehension in this approach is supported by research: when French is embedded within the context of a core subject, in this case, Science, it is proven that students improve their ability to use that language.
Science is taught only in French from Grades 3 to 6.

HOME ESSAYS Equity and Trust Coursework
Equity and Trust Coursework
Topics: Trust law, Common law / Pages: 15 (3605 words) / Published: Oct 26th, 2010
Unlike the common law, which has a set boundary of rules and regulations, equity does not have a concrete structure due to its complex historical background[1]. Trust, governed by the laws of equity, is a unique creation of common law and is often dealt with challenging and versatile series of events. This problem involves complex areas from topics of formalities, constitution of trusts, and covenants to settle. In this essay, I will fully concentrate on whether each section of the trust is enforceable, and the effects that the 2006 will could have brought about towards the trust.
Covenant – Constitution of Trust
a) On our first issue, we would have to consider the written covenant by Angelina in 2005. Her first intention was to make a discretionary trust for her children, but would the trust be enforceable just because it was written in a deed? The basic meaning of a covenant is a formal way in which the common law allows a person to make binding promises. Unlike contract, a covenant can be enforced in the common law regardless of consideration. But in equity, the trust would be held insufficient unless all formalities have been administered, which in our current situation, the trust was incompletely constituted. The main issue arose when none of the personal possessions listed on the covenant was transferred to Brad, the trustee. To add on the problem, there was no evidence that the children have provided consideration for Angelina's promise, therefore they were merely volunteers under equity where it should completely render the trust unenforceable. This was shown in the famous axiom in Milroy v Lord[2], Turner J denotes: 'Equity will not assist a volunteer to perfect an imperfect gift.' What this means is, equity simply will not assist a person to become a beneficiary under a trust, unless the trust is fully constituted or if the person is already a beneficiary, then it would not matter if the person provided consideration. Equity will not

And once again, we need some volunteers to participate in the Blanco County Courthouse Centennial Celebration on Saturday, 17 September. The parade starts at 5 pm, you'll need to be there at 4:30 pm to line up. We will wear our dancing outfits and walk/dance/twirl along the parade route twice around the courthouse. After that you are welcome to walk around and enjoy the festivities! Please let Pepper or Paul know if you are interested.
Halloween is next month, start thinking about your costume!


Last week I signed up for this and a few days later had this in my inbox. 9 minutes of power-packed moves, she has me hooked on her method. I'm barely able to sweat my way through her entire aerobics DVD yet but I'm so sore after my first try that I know I got a good workout. Tracy is guaranteed to be the antidote to an indulgent St Patrick's Day!
9 minutes?? I am sold, I can always find a few minutes a day to help get in bikini shape!
She's killer, isn't she? HAve you watched the video with gwen paltrow? I need to motivate!
congrats to you! work it!
I totally signed up. All of her clients have enviable figures. New Year's resolution (in March) here I come!
I am not, however, willing to give up cocktails. That's pure ridiculous-ness.
So curious about this...did it work, or you crzy sore?
I just bought one of her DVDs, can't wait to try it out!
