Recently Dr. Luigi Gratton was a guest speaker on one of our coach's team calls. In this segment of the call, he discusses NSF vs Informed Sport Certification and why Beachbody made the switch to the latter. Getting educated on this certification process has really heightened my respect for the Performance Line of supplements.
Who is Dr. Luigi Gratton?
Dr. Luigi Gratton is a new addition to Beachbody's executive team, joining our family in January 2018.
Luigi, as he likes people to call him, is a medical doctor with a masters in Public Health. He is currently the Group Vice President of Nutritionals, the team who is responsible for all of Beachbody's nutritional supplements—Shakeology, the Beachbody Performance line (Energize, Hydrate, Recover, Recharge, and Creatine), the Shakeology Boosts (Power Greens, Digestive Health, Focused Energy), Daily Sunshine, and the new Beachbars.
He came to Beachbody as a result of his interest in eating clean, eating sustainably, and eating organic and non-GMO plant-based foods. After earning a certificate of sustainability at UCLA, he started looking at companies that were focused on sustainable nutrition and he found Beachbody. He was so impressed, he knew he wanted to work with the company—and the rest is history so to speak.
I want to briefly touch on Beachbody's nutritional philosophy because it's so intertwined with the sports certification.
In short, Beachbody's nutritional philosophy that's at the core of all of their supplements is to deliver the macronutrients (i.e., protein, fat, carbs, etc.) and micronutrients (i.e., vitamins, minerals, trace elements, etc.) that our bodies need to function properly in order to boost our health and serve as a powerful weight loss tool.
Protein is KEY to this philosophy because it replenishes muscles after exercise and muscle mass determines our metabolism, which is central to weight loss.
Until recently, Beachbody used to use NSF to certify their nutritional supplements.
NSF, which is an acronym for National Sanitation Foundation, is an independent and acredited U.S. based organization that was founded in 1944. In 1990, they changed their name to NSF International and lost the acronymn.
NSF International develops health standards and certification programs that serve to protect food, water, consumer products and environment. In short, their goal is to protect and improve the health of humans around the world. They do this by developing standards, testing and certifying products and systems, as well as auditing, educating, and managing risk.
They are old, massive, and they certify an extremely broad spectrum of products to ensure they are hygienic—such as appliances, nutritional products, medical devices and much more.
Although they are an extremely reputable organization, Beachbody chose to switch to Informed Sport to certify their nutritional supplements.
Based in the U.K., Informed Sport is an international quality assurance program specializing in sports nutrition products and nutritional supplements.
They work closely with manufacturers and suppliers and review their systems and test their products and ingredients to certify that every batch of a supplement and/or raw material that bears the Informed-Sport logo has passed the test for being free of banned substances. The program also provides athletes with a reliable risk management service to enable them to choose supplements that have undergone quality control testing as required in elite sports.
Why Did Beachbody Make the Switch?
As I mentioned, Beachbody recently switched from using NSF to Informed Sport to certify their nutritional supplements.
Informed Sport is as good or better than NSF and test all of the same banned substances.
Informed Sport is more internationally recognized. Even American sports teams are recognizing them because they're so good.
Informed Sport certifies individual batches of supplements and enables the consumer to check them by batch number on their website. NSF does not do this.
Informed Sport has a higher and faster level of customer service.
Like NSF, Informed Sport is compliant with the nutritional supplement/substance regulations of the U.S. military.
Like NSF, Informed Sport meets the requirements of international anti-doping organizations, such as WADA (World Anti-Doping Association).
Being an avid cyclist and mountain biker, I love my supplements because they help me workout longer and stay healthy. But, I will NEVER sacrifice my health or integrity by taking anything other than a safe supplement.
I've recently started velodrome cycling and have come to witness the impact of banned substances on a sport. Having military friends and a brother who went through the Navy Seal program, I'm also aware of how crucial it is to trust that a supplement is safe.
The fact that all of our Beachbody supplements, especially the Performance Line because they're so awesome for sports, are certified safe by Informed Sport makes me incredibly proud.

← What is the 2B Mindset by Beachbody?


@Lef_RSA wow... oO stay safe!

Trumps went on spiritual warfare offensive against demonic forces, says pastor
Adan Salazar | Infowars.com - February 8, 2018 Comments
First Lady Melania Trump demanded the White House be spiritually cleansed prior to moving in, a pastor recently stated.
In a February 2 interview on The Weekend Vigilante with Sheila Zilinsky, Pastor Paul Begley claimed Melania's desire to "completely exorcise" the White House may have sparked Trump's own religious fervor.
"When the president allowed 40 pastors to come into the White House and anoint him with oil and lay their hands and pray on him—seven times he's done this—that is unheard of," Begley stated.
"At least he is humble enough and recognizing that he needs God enough that he keeps bringing them in for the prayer. And I've got to say this, it might have started with the First Lady."
Begley continued: "The First Lady – in that five hours when the Obamas and the Trumps went down to the Capitol and Trump was being sworn in as the 45th president of the United States – Melania Trump said to her husband, 'I'm not going to go into that White House unless it has been completely exorcised.'"
President Trump reportedly agreed.
"During that five hours when they were ripping out carpets and changing drapes, there were people in there packing up every idol. The only thing that was left, Sheila, was one cross on one wall. They cleansed the White House. They had people in there anointing it with oil and praying everywhere."
A post shared by drrmhb (@rodneyhowardbrowne) on Dec 28, 2017 at 12:29pm PST
Begley added that previous administrations had left demonic symbols at the estate, and elaborated on the Clinton's fascination with Haiti and voodoo:
"[A]pparently during the eight years when Obama was there, and maybe even some of the presidents before him, there were all kinds of idol gods and images and all kinds of artifacts in there that were demonic, even some of the stuff from the Clinton era because they were really tied in with the Haitians."
"I can tell you, you can read the "Serpent and the Rainbow" story and find out just how much Haitian witch-doctor influence was on Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton's lives," Begley added. "They constantly went back there. They spent their honeymoon with a witch doctor. Who does that?"
The Washington Post reported that in 1975 the Clintons held their honey moon in Haiti.
"They toured the old hotel where the writer Ernest Hemingway once stayed and visited a voodoo high priest dressed in all white," The Post reported, adding the Clintons were a "Haiti-obsessed family."
The former President's book, My Life, also contained passages claiming the Clintons "watched the arrival [of] the spirit, people putting burning torch over their body, walking on hot coals without being burned while other grabbing live chicken and biting their head off," according to the Haiti Observer.
In her book, What Happened, Clinton also comments that her frustration made her want to craft voodoo dolls of members of the press and Congress "and stick them full of pins."
"Melania said, 'You've got to get all of that out of there and send in some preachers and priests to go in and cleanse the White House or I will not spend one night in it.'"
Pastor Begley says while the Trump's acts may seem overboard, they are necessary in the arena of spiritual warfare.
"This was a major spiritual – it might sound like overdoing it, a little excessive," he said, "but you've got to take the seat of authority when you go into spiritual warfare. You start with the spiritual authority and then it goes on from there out. I think that that might have been where this whole thing began, in a mighty way of exorcising the demons."
According to CNS News, Pastor Begley based his accounts on sources inside the White House who declined to be named.
President Trump delivered remarks at the 66th annual National Prayer Breakfast Thursday where he affirmed, "Our rights are not given to us by man; our rights come from our Creator."
Melania is the first Catholic First Lady since Jackie Kennedy.

Jeezy And Jeannie Mai Engaged
Congratulations! Quarantined Couple Jeezy & Jeannie Mai Are Engaged
Source: Gilbert Carrasquillo / Getty
The snowman's smitten—so much so that he popped the question. Even with the coronavirus pandemic happening, Jeezy recently still found time to romantically get down on one knee and propose to his "The Real" host honey Jeannie Mai.
The news comes from PEOPLE magazine who confirmed that the proposal went down March 27. According to the pub, Jeezy, 42, was originally planning to propose to Mai, 41, sometime in April during a previously planned trip to Vietnam but had to cancel due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
So instead, Jeezy planned a romantic quarantine proposal at his house in L.A.
"Jeannie and Jay [Jeezy] were set for a trip to Vietnam this April. What Jeannie didn't know is that Jay was planning to propose," Mai's rep tells PEOPLE. "Instead, Jay decided to bring Vietnam to Jeannie with a surprise quarantine date night in his home filled with Vietnamese food and decor."
This will be the second marriage for Jeannie, Jeezy's first. Back in 2016 Jeezy popped the question to his baby's mother Mahi, it's unclear what happened to that relationship.
The two began dating in November 2018 but didn't take their romance public until August 2019. They've been happily coupled up ever since and recently spent their first Thanksgiving together surrounded by Jeezy's friends and family.
Jeanie also previously cried comparing her tender trapper honey to her ex-husband Freddy Harteis. According to Jeannie, Jeezy is super supportive—so much so though that he left his own birthday party early in Atlanta to personally drive her to the airport.
"When [Freddy] said things like 'good for you' or 'that's cool,' I'm like, that's great, he supports me! That to me is my standard of support. I didn't even know until my new relationship that something as basic …" she said, before trailing off and tearing up. "I'm not crying to feel bad. It was just so touchy. But even something as basic as, like, at his birthday party, he left his own birthday to drive me to the airport…he was like 'are you kidding? I want to see you off.'"
"Be mindful of your standards," she added. "Sometimes being alone in that time I took for myself, was my upgrade."
Watch Jeannie get emotional about Jeezy below.
Jeannie previously stated that she and Jeezy had an 8-hour first date and Jeezy gave her a homework assignment.
"He looks at me, he goes, 'Can I give you a homework assignment?… I want you to think about the last eight hours we spent together, and think about what do you envision us doing together. What do you picture me being in your life? If that matches my notes, I will pursue you. If not, we're cool to be friends.'"
Looks like that homework assignment paid off.
Congrats to the future Mr. and Mrs. Snowman, Jeezy and Jeannie!

Automatic deployment of component-based applications
In distributed systems like those based on cloud or service-oriented frameworks, applications are typically assembled by deploying and connecting a large number of heterogeneous software components, spanning from fine-grained packages to coarse-grained complex services. Automation techniques and tools have been proposed to ease the deployment process of these complex system. By relying on a formal model of components, we describe a sound and complete algorithm for computing the sequence of actions that permits the deployment of a desired configuration even in the presence of circular dependencies among components. We give a proof for the polynomiality of the devised algorithm and exploit it to develop METIS, a tool for computing deployment plans. The validation of METIS has been performed in two ways: on the one hand, by considering artificial scenarios consisting of a huge number of different components synthesized by following typical configuration patterns and, on the other hand, by exploiting it to deploy real-life installations of a WordPress blogging service.

Big Y to sell 'undersized' Massachusetts store
Location unable to accommodate evolving retail model
Russell Redman 1 | Feb 16, 2019
Big Y Foods is looking to sell a supermarket in Adams, Mass., to another operator because the store is too small for its current business model.
The Springfield, Mass.-based grocery chain said yesterday that the Adams location, at 1 Myrtle St., has a footprint of just 16,000 square feet — compared with the retailer's average size of 55,000 square feet — and it "can no longer operate this store effectively" in order to "keep up with Big Y's current changing consumer needs."
Related: Big Y Foods to phase out plastic bags
For example, Big Y said, the Adams store doesn't sell fresh pizza, fish and chips, or sushi and carries an "extremely limited" selection of organic foods. Selling space for local products such as fresh produce also is limited, and as a result the store offers 40% fewer of these items than a typical Big Y supermarket. The pharmacy, too, lacks space for the pharmacist to provide private medication consultations and administer vaccinations, such as for flu and pneumonia, the retailer said.
And as the chain's retail model has evolved, the Adams store's space proved insufficient to accommodate new offerings, and the site's 2.48 acres had no room for expanding the building, Big Y noted. For instance, customers seeing items in Big Y's circular or other Big Y locations often were puzzled about why they couldn't find them in the Adams store, Big Y explained.
The company added that operating constraints remained even after a $500,000 upgrade project for the store in 2013 that include new amenities and the replacement of outdated equipment.
"It is always difficult to close a store, especially one that has been part of the Big Y family for 35 years," Charles D'Amour, president and CEO of Big Y, said in a statement. "We appreciate all of the help and support from this employee team along with our loyal customers who have been shopping there. We hope that we can continue to serve these loyal shoppers at other Big Y locations in Berkshire County."
More representative of Big Y's current strategy is a store that opened in late January in Marlborough, Conn. The 54,000-square-foot stores serves up a broad menu of prepared foods, including hand-tossed pizza, rotisserie and fried chicken, wing and hot food bars, made-to-order sandwiches, store-made sushi and a soup bar. It also houses an eat-in café; a wide assortment of natural, organic and gluten-free products and local fresh produce; a make-your-own nut butter station; full-service bakery, seafood, deli and floral departments; and self-scan checkout stations.
Big Y said it's "aggressively pursuing another operator" for the Adams location but hasn't disclosed a potential suitor. Published reports said the grocer has identified a buyer for the store, which is slated to be shut in March. To help customers needing transportation after the Adams store closes, Big Y said it will provide shuttle service from the site to its North Adams supermarket. In the Berkshires area, Big Y also operates a store in Pittsfield, Mass.
Plans call for Big Y to lay off about 90 employees of the Adams store, but the company said it's working to place as many staff as possible at other locations. All affected employees will receive a benefits package and be eligible for an assistance program. The retailer also has retained a career services firm to aid with job searches and other outplacement services.
Overall, Big Y operates 83 stores in Massachusetts and Connecticut, including 71 Big Y supermarkets; 10 Big Y Express convenience and fuel locations; one Fresh Acres Market specialty supermarket; and one Table & Vine wine, beer, spirits and specialty foods store.

Apply your face cleanser to the wet brush and by using circular motion, move the device gently all over your face and neck. Make sure your skin is damp wet. For this step, you can use L'Occitane Immortelle Precious Cleansing Foam which contains floral water of Immortelle. The key to choosing cleansing products is knowing what kind of skin you have. If you have oily or combo skin type, this product is definitely worth a try. Since L'Occitane is a plant-based company, you can expect little to none chemicals in the products.
By this time, we expect you have already applied your toner but not your moisturizer. Applying toner right after cleaning your face is important if you have acne-prone or oily skin. TruSkin Naturals Vitamin C Serum is a powerful anti-aging formula. It is filled with Hyaluronic Acid and can make your skin feels more revitalized. If you want to look young, that is exactly what this serum is going to give you. Shrinking the pores, preventing breakouts, clearing up acnes or even minimizing the appearances of acne scars are exactly what this serum will do. Oh, yes. You can use it on your neck and for all animal lovers, fret not. It's cruelty-free and never been tested on animals.
What is better than applying a serum onto your skin? Yes! Applying two different types of serum. The reason why is because you want to give your skin the full cover of your skin care routine. For a radiant glow and luminous skin complexion, we suggest you try step 3 with L'Occitane Anti-Aging Divine Extract. This serum is best applied early in the morning after washing your face and before your moisturizer. Also, later in the evening before you are going to bed. The essential oils found in this serum are none others than myrtle and immortelle. It helps in preventing your skin from losing the firmness. If you have dark circles or heavy eye bags, this is the exact serum that you will need.
Face cleaning, toner and serum are not enough. You have to complete the skin care regimen by applying a face cream. Did you know that without moisturizer, your skin is prone to drying out and sun damage? As we age, face cream has become one of the vital skin care products that everyone should have. For a youthful glow, L'Occitane Anti-Aging Divine Cream seems like a good choice. It was given the award of the Best Miracle Cream in Anti-Aging Beauty Bible 2012. Can you believe that? The active ingredients found in it are all plant-derived, just like most of L'Occitane's products. This divine cream helps in nourishing, comforting and rejuvenating the skin. Apply it every time after you are applying the L'Occitane Anti-Aging Divine Extract onto your skin.
Dark circles under the eyes are usually caused by the thinning of the skin or the loss of collagen. If you are taking certain medication, your blood vessels would also dilate. Seasonal allergies, regularly sleeping on your stomach and even rubbing your eyes excessively are all the contributors to why you have dark circles. Most people tend to shy away from having photos of them taken whenever their eyes are exposed. But most beauty and skin care companies are aiming in coming up with some of the best eye creams. L'Occitane Divine Eye Cream has plant-based active ingredients. It helps in diminishing any signs of aging around your eyes. All you need is the smallest drop to cover both of your eyes. Make sure you apply this as the final step of your skin care routine before putting on your make-up.
Finding the best skin care products does not have to be a challenging task. Think of it like some types of blind date. You go on this journey of finding "The One", meet a couple and finally found the right one and sticking to it. We hope you were able to get a little bit of help in choosing your next beauty products through this post. Share with us about your skin care regimen in the comment section below.

1906 Lynching on the Square
KSMU | By Emma Wilson
Published August 27, 2010 at 10:43 AM CDT
KSMU archives
The events honoring the 50th anniversary will include a march to the Park Central Square in downtown Springfield. (Photo credit:
Editor's note: this story was produced and published in 2010.
In our ongoing Sense of Place series, we explore the history of the Ozarks in order to determine why things are the way that they are in our community. For this story, KSMU's Emma Wilson takes a look at one of the most disturbing events in the history of Springfield and how the impact is still felt today.
Prior to 1906, the African American population of Springfield is estimated to have been between 10 and 20 percent of the overall population. There were black-owned businesses, black leaders of the community, and though Springfield was segregated, there were relatively good relations between black and white members of the community. Springfield was even seen as a safe haven for African Americans who felt unwelcome in more rural areas of southwest Missouri.
All of this changed, however, when three black men were lynched on the public square during Easter weekend, 1906.
It all began when a young, white woman named Mina Edwards and her friend, Charles Cooper, claimed they had been assaulted, and Edwards raped, by two black men the night of Good Friday. Despite Cooper's claim that the men had been wearing masks, the police began looking for two men matching his descriptions.
"They came up with two men named Coker and Duncan and they arrested them...the city police did," said John Sellars, the director of the Springfield-Greene County History Museum. He says that not long after those two had been arrested, the man that Horace Duncan and Fred Coker worked for came and vouched for them.
"They were both laborers at the Pickwick Transport Company and they had been loading freight all night long. [They] had been with him [so it] couldn't possibly have been them and so they were released," Sellars said.
Released, only to be arrested again just a few hours later--supposedly for their own protection--as rumors grew that a lynch mob was forming.
Sellars says when the crowd descended on the jail, which was near the intersection of Central and Robberson, it overpowered the sheriff and his deputies and they could not prevent them from breaking in. Estimates of the mob's size are anywhere from 400 to 4,000 people.
Duncan and Coker were then marched down Boonville Avenue to the Park Central Square and hung from the Gottfried tower. The Gottfried tower was a large iron structure that used to stand in the center of the square to support the street car wires. Ironically, on top of that tower was a replica of the Statue of Liberty.
"Then they went back to the jail and broke out a third African American young man and did the same to him." Sellars said.
Will Allen was being held at the jail as a suspect in a murder case, and he became the third victim of the 1906 lynch mob.
"And not only were they hanged but they were also set on fire," said Father Moses Berry, who runs the Ozarks Afro-American Heritage Museum in Ash Grove. "They were burned after they were hanged and then their body parts were actually distributed among those who were more sadistic as sorts of mementos of the lynching that took place. In my opinion it was an act of domestic terrorism."
The following day, Easter Sunday, The New York Times reported that the governor of Missouri was offering a $300 reward for evidence against the perpetrators of the lynching. Later, 18 men were indicted for the lynchings but there were no convictions. By Sunday evening, National Guard troops were headed into Springfield to prevent further violence. Berry said that the damage to the community had already been done.
"As a result of that terroristic act of hanging people in a public place, people became so frightened that they left Springfield in droves," Berry said.
Almost overnight the African-American population of Springfield dropped from about 20 percent to 2 percent.
"And after having left Springfield they didn't re-populate even unto this very day, a town with over 100,000 people with less than 4 percent population." Berry said.
Wes Pratt is the Coordinator for the Diversity Outreach and Recruitment program at Missouri State University in Springfield. He says that in order to escape hate and the threat of violence, many black citizens had to leave everything behind, crippling the African-American community of Springfield.
"The ramifications, the repercussions of it still exist today. You basically destroyed an economic base for a community. You basically shattered hopes and dreams of many who had viable businesses. There were professionals here and we haven't been able to overcome that in over 100 years, and that's a sad commentary," Pratt said.
While the trauma of the past has taken its toll on the community, there has been a push in recent years to encourage more diversity in work and educational environments by programs such as the Diversity Outreach and Recruitment department at Missouri State.
"If I didn't believe in Springfield I wouldn't be here. And I wouldn't want my grandchildren to be here or my children to come here and live. There is a tremendous opportunity in Springfield but, in part, we've got to deal with what happened and understand it and make sure it never happens again." Pratt said.
Reporter standup: "I've come down to Park Central Square and I'm standing at the spot where Horace Duncan, Fred Coker and Will Allen were murdered a hundred years ago. Pratt says that while it may be painful to remember and re-tell the story of the lynching, it is essential to understanding why Springfield is the way it is. Neglecting to discuss it allows people to separate themselves from their own history and lets them forget the horrors humans are capable of. For KSMU's Sense of Place, I'm Emma Wilson."

Net Gains
In a professional sports world where attendance has declined across the board and player lockouts have become dinner-table discussion topics, the Seattle Storm has experienced an increase in attendance and season-ticketholder retention. According to the organization, gross revenues have risen 76 percent in three years. Corporate sponsorship of the team has similarly increased, and the organization touts strong community partnerships. But the real thrill and challenge in the niche-market Women's National Basketball Association—since its teams already play the best women's basketball in the country—is to make the league a viable, respected, enduring business.
The women-owned Storm franchise is pulling its share of the load. And, says co-owner Dawn Trudeau of the organization's business model, "It's working."
Having recently completed its 15th season, the WNBA, for better or worse, is stepping from the shadow of its fostering organization, the NBA. Even with big brother's backing, the story of the league has been one of indigence and impermanence. Six WNBA teams have folded and three others have relocated as the league expanded from eight teams to 16 and then contracted to the current 12. Franchises shift regularly, often resulting in diluted talent and weak footholds in the cities where the teams play. Only three franchises—the New York Liberty, Los Angeles Sparks and Phoenix Mercury—remain in their original cities from the eight-team league that began play in 1997.
According to Jim Copacino, the Seattle-based ad wizard whose firm Copacino + Fujikado is behind much of the Seattle Mariners' popular television advertising, the biggest challenge to the Storm's future is the financial stability of the WNBA as a whole. "If every team were in Seattle's position," Copacino says, "I think you'd have a healthy and viable league. But we know that isn't the case." The WNBA's new president, Laurel Richie, is optimistic, however. "When we have teams that are strong and steady and stable and growing," she says, "then, by definition, so goes the league."
The Storm's business leadership understands and embraces this mandate. "Our goal is to play our part, however small or big that may be, in securing the financial viability of the WNBA," says Storm president and CEO Karen Bryant, who was named Executive of the Year by the Seattle Sports Commission at the group's annual Sports Star of the Year event last January. "And we think the most compelling way for us to do that is to build the model and make it happen."
From the beginning, Force 10 Hoops, which bought the Storm from Clay Bennett in 2008 for $10 million, has strived to operate in the black. While it also measures success through ticket sales, sponsorships and fan engagement, its ultimate goal has always been profitability. "In order for our team to survive long term," says co-owner Ginny Gilder, "it needs to be an operable, viable business."
Still, while the Storm is seeing increases in almost all of its major metrics, Bryant says the team is two to three years away from profitability. This, she adds, puts the company slightly "ahead of schedule" for operating in the black by 2014, which the ownership group had been told was a reasonable expectation when it bought the team from Bennett.
One way Bryant and Force 10 hope to grow revenue is by generating income in the off-season. Because the WNBA season runs from June through September (and into October if the team is in the playoffs), the Storm's revenue flow fluctuates greatly. Bryant, confident in the Storm's popularity on and off the court, is trying to figure out ways to market the team year round.
The recent history of that team is familiar to many Seattleites and fans of Washington basketball. In 2008, as the Seattle SuperSonics picked up and moved to Oklahoma under new owner Bennett, four women calling themselves Force 10 Hoops stepped in to assume ownership of the local WNBA franchise—and keep it in Seattle. Dawn Trudeau, Lisa Brummel, Ginny Gilder and Anne Levinson—Levinson is no longer with Force 10—bought what was then an 8-year-old team.
When Force 10 acquired the Storm, it avoided the bare-bones, cost-cutting model typical of many WNBA franchises. It also made Bryant the CEO. Bryant had been with the Storm since its inception in 1999 in advance of the 2000 season, first as vice president of business operations and then as chief operating officer. Before joining the Storm, she had been assistant general manager of the Seattle Reign in the now-defunct women's American Basketball League.
From the beginning, Bryant and the owners agreed that hiring talented staff was the key to success. "You have to execute," notes Trudeau. Bryant says that in three years, she and Force 10 have effectively doubled the staff of the organization from its original complement of 16.
Next, the Storm amped up television coverage by negotiating deals with local broadcasters in 2010. While WNBA games don't generate NBA-type dollars, the Storm benefits from dial position when its games are on KONG-TV and from the ability to control content by producing its own broadcasts. Seeing the Storm on TV allows someone to sample the team and decide whether to attend a game, says Bryant, who believes TV coverage is "the single biggest thing in terms of the long-term success of women's basketball."
"Once people see us, they like us and they want to come back," adds Trudeau. Season ticket figures don't lie: The Storm's season ticket retention for 2011 approached 90 percent, having exceeded 80 percent in each of the previous two seasons. (The NBA pushes for retention rates of 85 percent with its franchises.)
Of course, it helps that the Storm captured its second WNBA championship in 2010, winning every game it played at home and generating the sort of community buzz most sports-team owners only dream about. The Storm caters to a primarily female and family-oriented demographic, but it hopes to expand its fan base through continued marketing. "The fact that we've really built this business from the fan's point of view, I think, is extremely noticeable," says Bryant. Copacino and Gilder agree, pointing to a widespread sense that Storm players are not that far removed from the general public, and that there's a feeling of intimacy and excitement generated inside KeyArena, the team's home court.
The enthusiasm of the fans is what drove the Storm's latest ad campaign and website redesign, developed by Wunderman Seattle. The ads feature photos of players and fans caught up in the fervor of a game. Each photo is labeled with words like "Pride," "Drive" and "Yours." "The biggest business challenge is simply getting new people to come in and experience a game," says Sean Howard, Wunderman's global client services director. "Once you go to a game, most people are really kind of hooked."
Howard believes that attracting fans to KeyArena goes beyond ticket sales. He says Force 10 and Bryant have a "level of sophistication of how they think about their particular brand and what they are trying to do with it, [and] what they are trying to inspire in the community." Promoting those ideals, he says, shows "a level of thinking and leadership that is league leading within the WNBA."
This level of thinking includes early decisions made with long-term goals in mind. "Our goal is eventually to make money," says Brummel, "but our goal [was] to get the team here [in Seattle] and sustain for the long term, more than anything else."
Bryant shares the belief. "The Storm will live on long past us," she says, "and we have the pleasure and privilege of being stewards here and now. But long after that, the relationships that we have are really what's priceless."
The real drivers of success, Bryant believes, are quality basketball and an enjoyable fan experience. "We're all just working on packaging," she says.
The product is exceptional in all 12 WNBA markets, she adds. The Storm is merely one of the first franchises to invest so heavily in it and to be "nimble" enough to take advantage of its independent ownership.
"When the owners bought the team," Bryant says, "they said, 'We want to be a model franchise to illustrate to other teams that if you invest in this business, the return [on investment] is there.'"
Having won a WNBA championship in the third year of Force 10's ownership, the Storm clearly demonstrated the sort of ROI that not only builds balance sheets, but also fan engagement. And having weathered a much more diffcult year this past season—at press time, the Storm was battling just to make the playoffs—Bryant and company know full well that true success in bringing women's sports into the mainstream is as much about winning converts as it is about winning games.
Sponsorship and success
The Seattle Storm has seen a 32 percent growth in sponsorship dollars year over year. Its sponsors include such local icons as Alaska Airlines, Virginia Mason, Seattle Children's, Group Health, PCC and Ivar's.
The Storm is one of five teams in the WNBA with a "marquee partnership," something common in professional soccer but unusual in other American professional sports. Under the team's agreement with Microsoft, the jerseys that Sue Bird, Swin Cash, Lauren Jackson and their teammates wear sport the logo of Microsoft's Bing search engine. Ad executive Jim Copacino sees the brand association as particularly fitting. "The league and the Storm's brand fit well with the Bing brand," he noted. "It says, 'We're an alternative. We're not the biggest. We're scrappy and you should pay attention to us.'"
The Storm's corporate sponsorships are steeped in community building. Storm players, coaches and staff make more than 100 appearances each year. Many players partner with nonprofit organizations in Saettle. The team carries out its multiple annual community programs under the banner of the Seattle Storm Foundation. —S.D.

By 2001, surgeon Mark Puder, MD, at Boston Children's Hospital was tired of watching babies slowly die from liver disease that should be preventable. He suspected something needed to be adjusted in the IV nutrition formula — particularly the fat component, derived from soybean oil and known as Intralipid.
But the prevailing view was that parenteral-nutrition-associated liver disease was a result of other components of the IV formula, not the lipid portion, since liver damage occurred even when the lipid was omitted from the formula.
Puder and surgical resident Jenna Garza, MD, decided to tease apart the biology. Kathleen Gura, PharmD, a clinical pharmacist specializing in nutrition, also joined the project. Doing multiple studies in mice, they tested various formulations, combinations and administration routes.
Omegaven: Patient zero
In the midst of this, Gura was trying to help a patient who needed treatment for an essential fatty acid deficiency, but had a soy allergy and couldn't receive Intralipid. Gura successfully treated hi with a fish-oil based formula — Omegaven — from a European company, Fresenius Kabi. Some formula was left over, so she and Puder decided to try it in the mice.

Results were dramatic: the liver disease the mice had developed with Intralipid disappeared.
"I presented the laboratory data at Grand Rounds," says Puder. "One of my surgical colleagues, Rusty Jennings, had a patient with rapidly progressing liver disease, and asked, 'Can you try Omegaven in my patient?'"
Puder and Gura got approvals from the FDA and Boston Children's Institutional Review Board to try it on a compassionate-use basis. On September 26, 2004, Charles Rolfe became the first baby in the world to receive Omegaven as the sole lipid in his IV nutrition solution.
Born with gastroschisis, a birth defect in which the intestines develop outside the body, Charles spent the first eight months of his life at Boston Children's, receiving IV nutrition and tube feedings. With the standard lipid emulsion, his liver had deteriorated to the point that he would soon die without a transplant. His parents were willing to give Omegaven a try, even though it had been studied only in mice.
"It was risky and I was very hesitant," says Puder. "But Charles had run out of options and was running out of time."
With Omegaven, Charles quickly began to recover. Labs showed his liver was functioning perfectly. Just over a month after his first dose of Omegaven, he was taken off the transplant waiting list.
"He went home within a few weeks after getting it," says his mother, Alyson.
Overcoming skepticism
We received a lot of support from the nurses," notes Gura. "Back in the day, a lot of nurses transferred to other units because it was so hard to see children die slowly of liver disease."
Even with this success, not all of Puder's and Gura's colleagues were convinced that the standard IV nutrition formula should be changed. Clinical nutritionists dismissed Omegaven, saying, "everyone knows it's not the lipids" causing the liver disease. And there were safety concerns.
"We were going against dogma," says Gura. "People thought you'd get bleeding, people thought you'd get an essential fatty acid deficiency if we used Omegaven as the only lipid source."
But one by one, Gura and Puder began using Omegaven in patients with IV-nutrition-related liver disease on a compassionate-use basis, with good results. Patients began arriving from all over the country to receive it.
Puder, Gura and colleagues began publishing case series, first in two infants with short bowel syndrome (including Charles) who had IV-nutrition-related liver disease, then in another 18 infants. To date, there have been more than 70 publications.
A hospital steps up
Though almost all infants got better with Omegaven, the FDA remained unconvinced.
"They wanted us to do a randomized controlled trial, which Kathy and I refused to do because we saw such good results with Omegaven," says Puder.
In addition, Fresenius Kabi wasn't interested in pursuing testing of its emulsion in the U.S., especially in gravely ill infants. In fact, the package insert for the product in Europe said Omegaven was contraindicated in liver disease. It was being used only in adults, as a supplemental anti-inflammatory agent, for periods of less than two weeks.
But Puder and Gura convinced the company to keep providing it, and Boston Children's made Omegaven available to any child who needed it, at its own considerable expense. (As an "experimental" treatment, it wasn't covered by insurance.)
"We received a lot of support from the nurses in particular," notes Gura. "Back in the day, a lot of nurses transferred to other units because it was so hard to see children die slowly of liver disease."
Finally, in December 2017, Puder, Gura, collaborators and the company had assembled enough data to go back to the FDA, which has become more willing to expedite their reviews in cases of dire need. Less than nine months later, the agency approved Omegaven for children with liver disease associated with parenteral nutrition.

"Prior to this, all lipid emulsions had a 'black box' warning, saying they could cause fat overload syndrome that could be fatal," says Gura. "We convinced the FDA that Omegaven doesn't cause this side effect, and we were able to have the black box removed."
The prospective study is still enrolling, and to date, more than 280 patients have received Omegaven under compassionate-use guidelines. Most have done well. The vast majority are still alive, including Charles Rolfe, now 14. He still receives IV feedings, but is doing well, loves fishing and the outdoors and will enter a technical high school this fall. The Rolfes still keep in close touch with Boston Children's and visit every four to six weeks.
Now that Omegaven has FDA approval, other hospitals can readily obtain it for their patients.
"It's kind of crazy that Charlie's 14 and it's taken 14 years to get it approved," says Alyson. "It's good that other people are being saved."

[1] "f" "g"

I want to access elements of those vectors using an array containing the vector indices, e.g.:
> indices
     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,]    1    3    2
[2,]    2    2    2

This is the desired output:
     [,1] [,2] [,3]
[1,] "a"  "e"  "g"
[2,] "b"  "d"  "g"

I found the following way to do it:
test_list <- list(c("a", "b"), c("c", "d", "e"), c("f", "g"))
indices <- matrix(c(1, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2), nrow = 2, ncol = 3, byrow = TRUE)
t(apply(indices, 1, function(row){mapply(`[[`, test_list, row)}))

Is there a cleaner, more idiomatic way?

A: One option involving purrr could be:
map2(.x = test_list,
     .y = asplit(indices, 2),
     ~ .x[.y]) %>%
 transpose()

[[1]]
[1] "a" "e" "g"

[[2]]
[1] "b" "d" "g"

Or a base R solution using the idea from the comment provided by @nicola:
mapply(`[`, test_list, asplit(indices, 2))

A: Another option in base R
out <- do.call(rbind, lapply(test_list, `length<-`, max(lengths(test_list))))
`dim<-`(out[cbind(c(col(indices)), c(indices))], c(2,  3))
#    [,1] [,2] [,3]
#[1,] "a"  "e"  "g"
#[2,] "b"  "d"  "g"

great, little, perfect, fit and middle.
This product had a total of 403 reviews as of our last analysis date on Apr 5 2019.
Perfect, great little pouches hold phone perfectly and the drink cups really keep your drink secure and cool!!
Love this accessory! It's definitely a must have for any BOB stroller!
Difficult to figure out how to pump the tires with the crappy instruction sheet.
It is also out of date.
I have a 2017 bob and the model shown in the instructions did not match up.
The other one is fine but definitely more flimsy.
Too much weight will cause this thing to turn over.
I bought this because the bob doesn't have a cup holder or place for keys and phone.
We have to pay extra attention to how the handlebar is tilted before just placing a coffee cup inside of the console.
I tried to use a standard drink holder and it ruined the handle grip.


Enjoy the calming and balancing benefits of this Wild Lemongrass + Orange hand & body lotion as well as the refreshing scent while your skin enjoys the well balanced moisture that will moisturize and soothe tired muscles.
Suggested use: Using dime sized portions, gently press the lotion into your skin with slow sweeping motions. Continue the application by massaging to stimulate circulation and blood flow. For best moisturizing results, apply while your skin is damp, and reapply throughout the day as needed.

New ADCS president: COVID-19 will 'plunge more families into poverty'
The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to plunge even more children and families into poverty, the new president of the Association of Directors of Children's Services has warned.
Echoing concerns raised by WillisPalmer weeks ago that many of the measures introduced to combat the spread of the virus have placed vulnerable children in increasingly dangerous situations and the fallout will be even more damaging than the coronavirus itself, new president Jenny Coles anticipates a spike in referrals to children's services after restrictions are lifted.
"I am worried about the pressures being stored up for us and what we might have to tackle, all of which comes on top of severely stretched and woefully under-funded children's services. I do recognise this is true across all public services as a result of a decade of austerity, but children and young people should not, must not, pay the heaviest price," said Jenny Coles in her inaugural address.
"I expect we will see huge spikes in demand across the children's social care spectrum. Referrals to children's social care are low at the moment, for obvious reasons, as the biggest sources of referrals, police, health and schools, are occupied elsewhere. I fear we will uncover new unmet need in the child in need space but more worryingly, in the child protection space. And, there is a very high probability that we are building up a backlog of new care applications which may result in more children needing to come into care," she added.
Ms Coles also highlighted:
- The calls to Refuge's hotline for reporting domestic abuse are up many fold.
- There will be an increase in the number of children and adolescents ensnared in sexual and other forms of criminal exploitation, recruited in gangs, because they have missed months of the protective factor of school.
- Increased incidences of children living with one, two or all three of the factors – parental substance misuse, domestic abuse and parental mental ill-health and emotional distress.
- Widening of health inequalities.
- Increased mental ill health.
"The impact of social distancing restrictions, and the closure of schools and colleges will have a lasting impact of children and young people. Young people are inventive and creative and have of course found plenty of ways of staying in touch with their friends and families. But, for some the enforced social isolation will be compounding and exacerbating their worries and anxieties. I am deeply concerned that we will see a sharp rise in the number of young people self-harming, or worse, that suicide rates will increase across the population," added Ms Coles.
She added that she "fully intended" to keep child poverty high on everyone's agenda and pledged to work closely with DfE, other government departments and with providers to achieve a national sufficiency strategy of placements for children in care.
Furthermore, she highlighted the importance of the Care Review to have a sharply focussed, clear aim of improving outcomes for children in care and care leavers, saying the aim should not be clouded by seeking to reduce the number of children in care per se, but to ensure the right children are in care, at the right time, in the right placement with the right support.
"The announcement of extra funding for children (and adult) social care is welcome. But I just want to say loud and clear, this is not yet job done for children's services…We must work towards a sustainable long term funding settlement for children's services. Before the pandemic, children's services were woefully under-funded and stretched to the limit. The current crisis is significantly exacerbating that inadequate baseline of funding. The resources needed during the nation's recovery from the pandemic will be eye-wateringly large. I'm sure that the government will invest in its citizens' futures. I want to see unprecedented levels of investment in our children's futures, please," Ms Coles concluded.

The heart of Thrive316 are the discussion guides found in the doctrines, virtues, and practices. Each discussion guide consists of a series of questions or talking points to inspire spiritual conversation. These discussion guides were written for informal dialogue between friends; although, they are often used in small groups or more formal Bible studies. They work best in groups of twos and threes. The larger the group, the more wooden the discussion can become.
The mistake people sometimes make using the discussion guides, especially in a group, is to approach them as closed questions with a specific answer rather than as a launching point for discussion. We refer to this as the Sunday School answer verses the thoughtful answer.
The Sunday School response goes as follows. Everyone looks around at one another seeing who will state the obvious. Someone finally says "lying" or "greed." Everyone nods and sort of agrees that is the correct answer. The group goes onto the next question. The group has found the solution.
The thoughtful answer probes a little deeper. It goes beyond the obvious and interacts with the question: much like two friends might do when discussing a current event. One friend might say to another, "I think they were giving for the wrong reasons. They obviously desired to impress everyone with their spirituality, and make a big show of giving, but were unwilling to pay the true cost of total surrender. They were not honest with themselves or others regarding their spirituality. They were insecure and pretentious and that came through in their actions." The other friend might respond by saying, "I totally see that. However, I think they were also influenced by legalism or a sense of spiritual performance. They measured spirituality by their deeds rather than their heart. They probably thought they were being spiritual because of the amount of money involved even as they lied to others around them." The first friend then asks, "Doesn't that come back to faith, or their lack of faith? They were not willing to trust God to satisfy their needs in life: financial, social, and personal. They were still trying to be in control." The conversation continues as new ideas and questions emerge and play off of the initial question or talking point.
The whole key to having rich and helpful discussions is the ability to move beyond the Sunday School answer to more thoughtful and honest answers. There are a variety of ways group leaders can help facilitate this kind of discussion. The tips after each discussion guide will remind you of some of these principles.
First, remember each discussion guide is a conversation rather than test. The goal is not to come up with the right answers, the goal is to explore the truth presented in the Bible passage. Thus, we should be intentional in exploring the nuances, impact, and applications for the various truths we encounter in scripture.
Second, the discussion guides are talking points, and as talking points are fluid. You may spend more time on one question than the others. You may skip some questions altogether. You may add questions you feel are relevant to your group. Allow the Holy Spirit to direct the conversation.
Third, if a question seems wooden or bogs down, ask questions of the question. Why did the author include this question? Why is it important to ask or establish this question? Does this question establish an important truth to build on? Is there anything going on that is beyond the obvious? How might people legitimately answer this question differently? What other questions might this question inspire?
Fourth, if you are leading a group, go through the questions ahead of time and develop a discussion strategy in your mind. You obviously want the Holy Spirit to direct the discussion. However, if the discussion bogs down you are prepared to probe, challenge, and direct.
These are some of the highpoints to keep in mind as you lead Thrive316 discussion guides. Again, the smaller the group, the more natural the conversation tends to be. The larger the group, the more group dynamics influence the discussion and people to be less open. Simply recognizing these tendencies and striving for thoughtful and meaning conversation regarding scripture will help you maximize the effectiveness and impact of your discussions.


Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC), a subsidiary of the government controlled Indian Railways, that handles the catering, tourism and online ticketing operations, is now going beyond its core competence of train ticketing to add general e-commerce to its site. The idea seems to be to capitalise on the huge eyeballs the site gets through its train ticketing platform.
It has signed up with Yebhi.com to launch its online shopping platform. This is through a partnership between IRCTC and Shop Online Trading Pvt Ltd. (SOTPL), the company that runs Yebhi.com (under brand rights from Big Shoe Bazaar India Pvt Ltd to comply with FDI norms in the sector).
IRCTC will add a 'Shopping' section on its existing portal and will have all the product categories present on Yebhi as of now, shared Nikhil Rungta, chief business officer, Yebhi.com.
He also said the entities are looking at gross merchandise value of around Rs 200 crore in the first year of this venture. As per the deal, SOTPL and Yebhi.com will be responsible for developing and managing the e-commerce platform for IRCTC. The front-end will belong to IRCTC and the whole back-end supply-chain will be managed by Yebhi.com. Rungta said the interface should go live in a few weeks.
"With this association, IRCTC is getting a readymade supply chain with all products offering at one go powered by Yebhi.com and at the same time Yebhi.com is able to reach out to real India that starts from tier II, tier III cities and goes deep into tier IV and tier V locations," said Manmohan Agarwal, co-founder and CEO Yebhi.com.
This partnership follows a tender process initiated by IRCTC in February this year to shortlist a partner for its online platform. The tender was open for e-commerce companies with a minimum annual turnover of Rs 40 crore in the last financial year via their B2C e-commerce business.
IRCTC has been talking about foraying into product ecommerce for some time now. Earlier this year, reports suggested that IRCTC has initiated a proposal wherein it was planning to sell footwear, furnishings and electronic items such as mobile phones through its platform.
IRCTC gets close to 1.2 million daily visits generating 180 million transactions every year. Thus, it is the largest e-commerce site in the country focused on the train ticketing business. It had added air ticketing sometime ago. With this move IRCTC is looking to leverage this platform for selling other goods, becoming a one-stop e-tailing platform.
Yebhi.com raised $12 million (Rs 65 crore) from its existing investors in a bridge round earlier this year. It has in total received a capital influx of over $39 million (Rs 214 crore). It started as a shoe e-tailer but expanded latter to a lifestyle e-com firm with multiple categories like home, lifestyle and fashion and electronics along with mobile recharge on its platform.
Earlier, Agarwal told Techcircle.in that the portal is doing five-figure (over 10,000) orders a day. Will this partnership spell big success for Yebhi? We will have to wait and watch.


elmori83 and Makanic like this.
The issue has been taken care of.
How long is the limite of time?
And are there 8c even though i've been using several accounts at the same time?
Works well, has frequent updates and is easy to use.
Paid version of this is the best hunter bot, period.
Hi dude, what will be the cost of the bot?
It's a great bot that does what it says. Don't be afraid to use it. If it helps, in my opinion, this bot should be premium because that is how it works.
Been using this for a few days now, and so far it's smooth as butter.
I've only used Bird Snares, but no issues at all so far.
About to get 53 and do Eagle's Peak, so we'll see about box traps, but if this review isn't updated assume it went fantastic.
Chop your way through Old School!
Blast cash straight into your pockets!

Happy Holla-Days from Harlem! — New Heights Youth, Inc.
We had a great turnout at our Annual New Heights Holiday Party on Wednesday night, December 16th! Over 200 staff, coaches, student-athletes, and parents gathered at the Dunlevy Milbank Center to celebrate with each other over delicious food, drinks, and desserts. Musical entertainment was provided by DJ Ray (hopefully this will become an ongoing tradition) and Academic Coordinator, Sekou Hamer, announced our "Student-Athletes of the Month," congratulations to Callie O'Brien and Keith Williams.
We also conducted a toy drive to support families in the FACES NY organization, and our families went above and before to provide toys and presents for many deserving families across NYC. We handed out Under Armour New Heights hoodies to middle school students and T-shirts were available for purchase. In the coming months, we are launching an online store where you can purchase more New Heights gear, so stay tuned.
A big thanks to all who came out to celebrate the holidays as a part of the New Heights family!
