The basic principle of kinesiology is to balance the body's energies.
Picture the body's optimum state of wellness as a triangle with 3 sides - physical, emotional and bio-chemical. All are vital. Kinesiology seeks equilibrium for all sides of the wellness triangle.
Kinesiology uses the gentle art of muscle testing along with the 5 elements & energy meridians of TCM (Tradtional Chinese Medicine).
What is it that you want to achieve? What would it be like to function in this new way? What keeps you from achieving it? What would happen if you didn't achieve it?
These are the questions that hold the answers. When we set a goal, our focus and energies become balanced towards it.
It is truly holistic as your body selects the priority method that would best serve you to achieve your goal. Sometimes this involves stimulating certain points, stretching muscles, sabotage clearing, creative visualisation, talking, emotional & postural stress release and many more fascinating options. You are full of possibilities!
In kinesiology, we are working with energy. We believe that any problem/ blockage a person is experiencing is due to a blockage of "chi" . " Chi" means life force energy and relates to how this flows through the energetic meridians of the body. Interestingly enough , "chi" also means the twenty-second letter of the Greek alphabet and the twenty-second star in a constellation.
Kinesiology is a powerful combination of Eastern & Western techniques that come together to access the body's innate wisdom and restore equilibrium.
Muscle monitoring/testing is used as a form of bio-feedback and also identifies emotions that keep us stuck in old patterns. This means that you already have all the answers to what is holding you back physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
The most exciting news is, we can discover information today on the best way to clear the path towards what you would like to achieve, straight from the most reliable source – you.
Imagine bringing your mind-body to the energetic buffet, and allowing it to choose! It's great for stress, fatigue, pain, digestive & emotional issues.

My passion for kinesiology started 4 years ago when I attended an introductory Touch For Health class. Something shifted within me. I couldn't get enough of this wonderful and fascinating modality, as a result I went on the journey to study and achieve my qualifications in Kinesiology.
Marvelling at the mystery that was unravelling, I came up against my own limitations along the way and kinesiology was such an eye opener. It really assisted me to open my heart. To really live that passion of who I am. To not be lurking somewhere in the shadows of my life wondering about what could have been.
Whilst I don't believe kinesiology can tie your shoelaces for you or do your tax return. I do hold a vision of a world where oneday, this is possible. Or a utopia without shoe laces or tax returns.
I am a Kinesiologist and Singer/Songwriter with a sense of humour.

The 501 Team
06 Jan Foster fuels Devil Dogs with growth, experience
Posted at 19:09h in Neighbors, Sports by Mark Oliver

Morrilton point guard Devin Foster took last year's second-round state tournament loss personally. This year, the scrappy senior is laser-focused on personal growth and helping his team make an impact in his final year with the Devil Dogs.
"Last season, I felt like I let my team down at the end of the season because I didn't build my leadership habits the way I should have," Foster said. "This year, my goal is to be a better leader. I want to take that next step — to not only get all-conference and all-state, but to show college coaches that I can lead, score and do whatever it takes to help a team at the next level."
So far so good. Through seven games, Morrilton (4-3, 1-0 Class 4-4A) has thrived on its strong bench play and defense to show that it can be competitive.
"We're doing very well this year," Foster said. "We've gotten experience against some of the top teams in the state — Central, Sylvan Hills and Maumelle — and we're winning games in dominant fashion. Our biggest asset is our bench — they're playing hard and buying in to what we're doing, and that's why we're winning more."
Most impressive for the Devil Dogs this season was delivering conference rival Dardanelle's first loss of the season — a moment Foster believes has sparked his team's confidence further.
"Winning [against Dardanelle] was a great statement game to show our conference that we are here not only to compete, but to dominate," Foster said. "They're a really good team. We have a lot of great shooters on our bench, and we worked to get them involved. If these guys continue to grow and buy in to what we're doing, then I think we can get past the second round of the state tournament this year."
Foster was selected to this year's 501 Basketball Team — 34 players representing the best the 501 has to offer both on and off the court. The team is sponsored by Conway Regional Health System and First Security Bank. The senior was nominated by his head coach, Keith Zackery.
"Devin is our team leader," Zackery wrote in his nomination. "He could run the entire practice in my absence. He is vocal, possesses great communication skills and has a good skillset to go along with his leadership abilities. He works at his game, so it's easy to follow a guy that walks it like he talks it."
This week, Foster and the Devil Dogs face hot-handed Ozark. Where one sees a challenge, Foster sees opportunity for his team to achieve greatness.
"Ozark is a really good team," Foster said. "They're not only favored to win our conference, but district and regionals, too. Playing against them would be great for us. Beating them would send a message that Morrilton is playing to win and isn't just playing around. We're looking at district, regionals and state this year."
"I expect Devin to be Devin this year," Zackery wrote. "I expect him to lead our team as the primary point guard; make the right decisions and reads, offensively; and be a calming presence, vocally and physically with body language, whenever things aren't going well."
Off the court, Foster works to give back to the community he calls home.
"Coach Zackery tells us to always do five good things outside of basketball every day to build great character," Foster said. "I always enjoyed going to local nursing homes to play bingo with the residents and learning their stories. I also help out around the school and mentor freshmen."
"Devin does community service events with his team and spends some of his extra time mentoring some of the younger kids in our community in his free time," Zackery wrote.
With dreams of playing at the next level, Foster describes recruiting during the COVID-19 pandemic as challenging.
"Trying to meet coaches has been pretty hard, due to the virus," Foster said. "They can't come to my practices, so I have been handling my recruitment through social media, e-mail and recruiting questionnaires. I'm also working hard to be a better leader. In my free time, I'm working on myself and watching film. In games, I'm focusing on my on-the-ball defense and my willingness to guard the basketball for 32 minutes."
"Devin will be missed dearly by our program as a whole," Zackery wrote. "He has earned the respect of his teammates on the court, and he has been a special kid to our program and the forward progression it has taken."
Morrilton plays at Ozark at 7 p.m., Friday, Jan. 8.

Finally, You Can Trade Stocks For Free!
Get ready world! Wall Street is about to get a lot more friendly.
Photo: Michael Daddino/Flickr
Back then, free stock trades weren't possible
Free stock trading isn't exactly new. In fact, plenty of companies have tried and failed in the process. Any number of problems have beset these pioneering companies. From beginning to charge commissions and fees to questionable management to poor corporate reputations, they haven't stood the test of time.
When I first started investing and researching individual stocks, I was a wee middle schooler. As I tried to understand the markets, my burgeoning interest was dampened by trading fees. With only a couple hundred dollars to my name, stock trading fees of about $50 made it financially oppressive. I couldn't invest in Apple (ticker: AAPL) right after the iPod was released, but I wanted to.
Fees destroy profits and wreak long-term havoc on investment returns — especially for those getting started. Thankfully, fees have been on a precipitous decline in recent years. From that abominable $50-fee time to now, you can see great change. Most online brokerage companies are around $10 or less per trade.
Unfortunately, if you're an average investor — or even a day trader — you'll spend money every year rebalancing your portfolio to better diversify. Whether you choose individual stocks (more risky) or exchange traded index funds (more diversified), you'll be spending about $20 per stock to get in and out. And that should be frightening to anyone. Heck, that's 10% of my monthly food budget!
The hope for fee-free stock trades
The lingering question: Is there actually a non-scammy, reputable way to trade for free? Until very recently the answer was still no. Unless you had gobs of wealth ready to trade, investment and brokerage companies had no interest in providing for the little guy or gal. Free didn't really exist; the handful that tried, failed.
Today, there's good news for everyone — at every income level — because data and tech companies have solved this wretched problem. Today, I'm making a rather lofty prediction: nobody in the United States will pay to trade at average investor levels within 7-10 years. Today, there's hope on the horizon for a more affordable, accessible investing world.
The cost of everything tech-related has fallen. We can store more and get data faster than ever before. It makes all of our consumer products less expensive to purchase, and has the added benefit of making cloud applications cheaper, too.
We are just beginning to benefit from these reduced costs, as many cloud-based providers have opted to slash costs for services. For instance, Google Drive offers 15GB free and for $2.00 per month, you can receive 100GB. Think about it, only a few years ago we were working with floppy disks that stored about 1.5MB!
As technology prices decline, the consumer has benefited appreciably. And it's leaving room for innovators to save us even more when trading stocks. If a company can utilize the latest technology, reduce brick and mortar costs by only having an online presence, make money off of user data, and turn cash-on-hand into interest for them, then you could have a success story.
Robinhood saves money for everyone
The other day I was reading up on a new tech startup that's aiming to do everything I mentioned. They have an office — not hundreds or thousands of offices. They have a staff of coders, developers, graphic designers, and technical support to make something for the 21st century.
The company's called Robinhood. I don't know if they could come up with a better name than that! They aim to "democratize" stock trades by removing the "$10 [fees] for every trade." Now, the wealthy and the hopefully-soon-to-be wealthy can participate in the market without being eaten alive by trading fees.
Instead of porting over old ways about investing, Robinhood revolutionizes everything about trading. All you need is a smartphone (iOS only, Android coming soon). With a few taps, anyone can invest for free.
Here's where I want you to ask, What's the catch, Sam? Nothing in life is free, right?
True. Nothing in life is completely free. There's always some trade off. The fees that used to be captured by older brokerage houses are eliminated; instead, the company profits off of unused cash balances in portfolios. For instance, say you deposit $1,000 in a Robinhood account. Until you formally invest in a stock, that money is borrowed by the company and put in an interest-bearing bank account for them. As you research and decide on a stock to buy, they scoop up a little interest in the process.
Additionally, Robinhood uses advanced technical features that will likely be able to track user data far better than stodgy companies. I'm always cautious about data-based companies, but the potential gain is worth the information loss.
Robinhood is backed by some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley, including Andreessen Horowitz and Google Ventures. That has provided them with some much needed funding to get off the ground and running. With Google behind them, I trust their platform and user-focused future. This isn't a company that will crash and burn like Zecco did.
First impressions on this new app and trading platform
I deposited my first funds into Robinhood's iOS app a few days ago. Trading stocks and ETFs were easy. As if conditioned to wince over the costs like before, I clicked and beared for some strange $7-10 trading fee. It never came.
Robinhood is an honest platform with some exciting energy. When I reached out for support via their FAQ forums and Twitter account, responses were delivered within 24 hours — usually in a couple hours. That's impressive for a small staff with plenty of new accounts. The company seems to understand that if it's to appeal to younger, more tech savvy generations, they'll need to meet them where they are — Twitter included.
Reducing these trading is a wonderful first step towards a more accessible, affordable stock market for all. The dangers of stock market manipulation are still ever present, but being able to enter the market without these fees is amazing. And having a terrific platform on top of it is a wonderful thing!
Want to try it out? Unfortunately, it's invite-only at this stage, but I have 3 invite codes up for grabs! Comment below and share this article on Twitter. I'll email the codes to 3 people within 7 days of this article.

In Search Of Robin Hood
By Frugaling 1 Comment
Photo: Robin Hood/Flickr
Only 80 people
Today, we stand at a dangerous precipice. About 80 people have the same amount of wealth as the bottom 3.5 billion people combined — $1.9 trillion.
That's a staggering gap in equity.
Unlike the myth of "job creators" and "hard work," these 80 people can never match the productivity and ingenuity of 3.5 billion. Unfortunately, the system of global income and wealth inequality doesn't allow for more social distribution.
We need a Robin Hood
There's a legendary hero who attempted to change these economic circumstances: Robin Hood. Whether man or myth, he was a rebel. The character is famous for taking from the rich to give to the poor.
He forcefully redistributed wealth through illegal, anarchic action in a folklore landscape that was divided and unequal. Simply put, he noticed injustices and took individual action to change the system of wealth inequality.
Levying a global wealth tax? Nearly impossible.
In Thomas Piketty's 700-page tome, Capital in the Twenty-First Century, he acknowledges deep economic patterns of global wealth inequality. In no uncertain terms, Piketty suggests we are approaching another Gilded Age.
His major proposal is a global net worth tax to reassert some amount of economic equality (among other suggestions). In a way, this could be a heroic Robin Hood-like effort to help the planet's people — not just a select few.
A global net worth tax might not be possible. Too many countries, wealthy people, and corrupt states would prevent it from happening. But there's something else that's growing in popular support: the Robin Hood tax.
The Robin Hood Tax could work
This cleverly named tax is supported by around over 350 economists and 50 charities including Greenpeace, Christian Aid, Comic Relief, Oxfam, One, Save the Children, The Salvation Army, and Unicef. Ultimately, this tax would be levied on banking and financial transactions that are traditionally made by the wealthiest 1%: those in the financial industry.
Potentially, taxes on financial instruments and industry in general could raise billions of dollars in revenue. The "Financial Transaction Tax (FFT)" at the heart of the Robin Hood tax could raise about 380 billion dollars per year.
These taxes would be sorely received by the wealthiest classes, but it would create a base and middle class for the majority. This could change lives.
Now, we just need to find a politician that'll put on some green tights.

Q: how to add footer template dynamically in asp.net I have created a gridview dynamically. There is template fields described in designing portion. All the columns were created thru code behind as follows. Its works fine. Here I can listed the pages for each rows. But I dont know how to implement the sum of pages in the footer template thru code behind.
TemplateField Pages = new TemplateField();
Pages.HeaderText = "Pages";
Pages.ItemTemplate = new GridViewTemplate_Pages();
gv1.Columns.Add(Pages);

    public class GridViewTemplate_Pages : ITemplate
    {

        void ITemplate.InstantiateIn(Control container)
        {
            Label PagesLabel = new Label();
            PagesLabel.DataBinding += new EventHandler(this.PagesLabel_DataBinding);
            container.Controls.Add(PagesLabel);
        }

        void PagesLabel_DataBinding(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Label lbl1 = (Label)sender;
            GridViewRow row = (GridViewRow)lbl1.NamingContainer;
            lbl1.Text = DataBinder.Eval(row.DataItem, "PagesReceived").ToString();
        }
    }

Given ShowFooter="True" in aspx page and RowDataBound written separately. The following code works fine if I given footer template in aspx page but do not know how to get the result in programmatically. Please advice.
    protected void gv1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
        {
            int RowTotalPages = Convert.ToInt32(DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "PagesReceived"));
            TotalPages = TotalPages + RowTotalPages;
        }
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Footer)
        {
            Label m = (Label)e.Row.FindControl("gv1TotalPages");
            m.Text = TotalPages.ToString();
        }
    }

A: You can create the footer to a gridview like this.
//Code
GridView gv = new GridView();
gv.RowCreated += delegate(object dsender, GridViewRowEventArgs ge)
{
    if (ge.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Footer)
        ge.Row.Cells[0].Text = "Something";
};
gv.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
gv.ShowFooter = true;
BoundField bf = new BoundField();
bf.HeaderText = "col 1";
bf.DataField = "Length";
gv.Columns.Add(bf);
gv.DataSource = new string[] { "One", "Two", "Three" };
gv.DataBind();
Form.Controls.Add(gv);

This is for the dynamically created gridview and a footer. You can change accordingly.

A: Its a silly thing. I made it complex. I need the sum of pages in the footer row, then why should I think and confuse about GridViewTemplate and Itemplate class. Simply I added the Total pages in the session and recollect it in the DataControlRowType.Footer. Here is the code:
    protected void gv1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
        {
            int RowTotalPages = Convert.ToInt32(DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "PagesReceived"));
            int RowTotalCharges = Convert.ToInt32(DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "ChargesReceived"));
            TotalPages = TotalPages + RowTotalPages;
            TotalCharges = TotalCharges + RowTotalCharges;
            Session.Add("TotalPages", TotalPages.ToString());
            Session.Add("TotalCharges", TotalCharges.ToString());
        }
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Footer)
        {
            e.Row.Cells[4].Text = "Batches Count: " + gv1.Rows.Count.ToString();
            e.Row.Cells[5].Text = Session["TotalPages"].ToString();
            e.Row.Cells[6].Text = Session["TotalCharges"].ToString();
        }
    }

Thanks Stephen, that's good to know. Did you need to build these up from the patches, or is there a way to combine presets? I haven't had much time to fiddle with the Synchron player yet, to unsure of how to do all this.
Would be nice if VSL provided user presets for things like this.
I started with the VSL presets, and then added/subtracted from those. Saves a bit of time that way.
In the VI version, matracies from I, II and III could be combined into a single instruemnt. I assume that's not posible with the Synchron player is it?
Totally possible... and that's what I've done. For example I have a dimension labeled "mute" which expends out into sub dimensions with all the necessary articulations. For the Sul Tasto bowings, I've inserted them into "shorts" "longs" "legato" etc.
Here's a tip too when customizing: I've had some pretty awesome results by blending the portamento and normal legatos into a crossfaded dimension.. sometimes, depending on the velocity there's a little phasey thing going on, but more often than not it is a really smooth effect for certain musical requirements.
It's not with close mics, but the Tchaikovsky demo I made has a ton of repeated notes.
My view is that you need everything... the only issue with the VI Series strings compared to the libraries recorded with 10+ mic positions is the tonal realism.
I feel like the ultimate combination (if they decide to do it) would be the Synchronized Dimension Strings combined with Synchron Strings I, and then maybe a Synchron Strings II with some additional articulations (detache, a super slow/soft legato, harmonics, col lengo, portamento).
With VI Orchestral Strings alone, compared to SyStrings, you just don't get quite as much depth of tone/sound. PLUS with multiple mic positions, you can treat the sound with different FX (some saturation, pulling a little more harmonic content, etc). Great for a mixer!
This whole thread was incredibly useful! Thank you Dietz and Dewdman.
For me, I use Start, Velocity Xfade, Expression, Slot Xfade, and Legato Blur. And depending on how much tweeking, you might also consider Humanize and the Filter as well.
I agree pretty much with everything mohsohsenshi said.
One thing I'd note about a laptop as a master: if it is streaming a LOT of midi data all at once, even at higher latencies, you will get some clicks/pops.
For example, if I load all of the mic positions for the Yamaha CFX, and I'm playing one of my virtuosic piano arrangements (might hit 2,000 voices of polyphony in some bars) it will totally crap out. My PC slave is totally fine, but the laptop/Logic can't handle it.
At some point I'll need to get a better master machine... so perhaps consider that!
If VSL decides to do a Synchron Brass, it would be interesting to see if they would do it "dimension" style... 4+4+3+1(b. tromb)+1(tuba). Or if they go with 6 horns... or Mahler size of 8. Would they add a piccolo trumpet? Would be neat!
Based on that above video I believe, and I may be wrong, that VSL is normally partial to the dark european sound of the rotary valve trumpets... so it may not be with these instruments.
Off the top of my head, the standard symphonic literature is a high concert D (Bartok concerto for orchestra, Bernstein Kaddish Symphony...). I can say that recording a high D over and over for a sample library would be miserable for most players... sure, there are your 1st call guys, but still not pleasant. But, that would help with those folks who had complaints about the regular Dimension Brass range.
Then, with a brass library, you consider the mutes. I would like to see a handful of articulations with straight mute, and then a handful with harmon mute. Same if they do a piccolo trumpet. The icy orchestration of Petruska's ghost from the Stravinsky ballet calls for muted piccolo trumpet... it's a GREAT effect!
Trombones should have all possible glissandi at different speeds AND fluttered tounged in addition to regular.
For the legatos, there should be pure slur, but then also an option for very light tounge that is used to kind of just bump the air a little bit when landing on the next note. Needs to be a soft bump thought!
On tone, I would like the engineer/producer to really capture the ones that have a more open sound compared to the other brass libraries... more "ohh" in quality. Sometimes, the sound can air on the side of "eee."
Then, a little vibrato control!
Lastly, and I'm not even sure this is possible, but "bells up above the stand" articulations (a couple longs, and a couple shorts)... just for that extra epic Mahlerian blasting.
If you watched the Smart Spheres DEMO I did, here are the EQ changes I made to different parts of the keyboard on the 274-D Synchron Piano (see attachment). This preset is probably a good starting point as well for a "concert" setting for that piano.
It is a ridiculously difficult arrangement by Pletnev of the March from the Nutcracker ballet performed and mixed by me. I love this piano! Notice how in a certain velocity range during the trumpet theme how that final note this piano has sort of a forte-piano (fp) sound on that e minor chord, because I'm landing in a certain velocity range... that's a tonal/dynamic characteristic not found in other libraries (or on most real pianos to be honest... you won't find it on these banged-out/stretched-out C7s in the LA/Nashville studios.. lol).
...and if you're not familiar with Pletnev, check his performances out on Youtube. He's a legend!
Also, this passage could be difficult for an ensemble to pull off.
Have you considered different inversions of the chord so you can make use of some open strings? in G minor, you get two!
Check out some of the paterns in the MIDI Sequencer of VI pro. Often, there are switches between articulations that give it a more realistic feel.
AND pay attention to the ends of the notes plus the space in between each note. You can sometimes fiddle with the 'release' slider.
Finally, you can affect the color of the sound (depending on what is really going on with the rest of the music) with the 'filter' slider.
Steven, yes actually I realized I had heard something of yours after writing that. Excellent work though I'm sure you don't care what I think.
Just having a little fun, and never missing an opportunity for a little shameless self promotion But thank you very much!
Somehow I never hear any music by them.
Better "out of the box" sound requiring less EQ to fix the noise.
Better playability requiring fewer adjustments to the MIDI after a performance.
For film scoring, piano parts tend to air on the soft side (the opposite of the current curve)... could be more inspirational for composers!
Granted, this is what *I* would do. If none of these are implemented, then I certainly have workarounds and handy "save presets" options once I get it dialed in how I like it. I have a feeling though VSL will introduce a curve... they're really good about listening to their customers when they have reasonable requests.
I have the same issue (annoying key noise on some release notes).The noise is more audible when playing softly (final chord of a soft piece, for example). It reminds me the noise of a silent piano.
The Steinway is beautiful but I agree that hammers are too hard (at least, compared to then my own 205 cm grand piano). It is not easy to produce a «muffled» sound with that software intrument.
Turn up Dynamic to around 120 (maybe more?) and turn down MIDI Sensitivity to around -20.
Also, go to the edit page and take the upper half of the keyboard and put an EQ shelf below 200hz... (or get the bell curves so you can keep a little bit of the piano "body" below 70hz) that helps reduce all that noise, yet on the lower half of the keyboad you can preserve the low end.
I would like to 2nd this observation... and think to a small extent, the CFX could use a tweak fixing the bias towards the fortissimo and fortississimo as well. It is a timbral issue, agreed.
For the harshest of tone, only the very top velocities should be reserved for it. (Sort of like "harsh" shorts on the Synchron strings) For the almost-top velocities, I feel there should be a gradual timbral curve. But as of now, if I'm in the upper 1/3, it's all pretty "loud" timbrally.
One other thing.... I sent a file over to VSL about the keynoise on the Steinway, which to my ears is really loud, causing a whole lot of noise/mud in the 75-184hz range. If this is adjustable in the sample, then perhaps that would alleviate some of the preceived timbral "bias" towards FFF. Maybe?
it's the timbral mapping that's heavily skewed in favour of fff.
You can perform the alternations at any tempo, it's just about the gaps between the notes, in a slower tempo the gaps may become to large therefor the player triggers starting notes (where two alternating variations are available). Just take care about the gaps between the notes, minimize them if necessary, and you will trigger the "performance repetitions" (8 variations).
I think it would be VERY helpful if in the manual there was some coverage of how to get Synchron how to "behave" based on the MIDI notes themselves. I remember a past thread where I had asked if legato behavior was affected by touching vs overlap vs long overlap notes. Or maybe a video tutorial?
But for what it is worth, I also am very excited to have a MIRx for Synchron.
So, the way I've got mine set up is in the VIpro matrix, I have a bunch of articulations.
I navigate that matrix through keyswitches that are on the lower end of the keyboard (my primary keyoard is a 64-key). The X axis is white notes, the Y axis is black notes. I load one instrument, on one channel, and in the performance, I switch articulations through those key switches. Of course, the keyswitches are outside the range of the instrument.
Then, I have velocity crossfade on, so that no matter what the velocity is, the "loudness" of that articulation is determined by the velocity Xfade CC position (low = soft, high = loud).


A point-of-purchase display manufacturer was looking to increase the speed in which its finishing department was applying tape, while the end user was looking for a quicker way to assemble the signs in the field. They had currently been using a double-sided acrylic film.
We recommended that the customer switch to a ¾'' wide roll with an extended liner on each side of the adhesive. However, along with the ¾'' rolls would come a 10% price increase. We assumed there would be resistance from the customer.
There was skepticism within the customer's purchasing department. They did not believe that an increase in production could justify the increase in price. However, after seeing their Budnick sales representative demonstrate the easy removability of the extended liner, they understood the vast improvements. This product is now on spec in a major national home improvement chain and required on all of their products.

Yesterday when I dropped Jackson off at school he started to cry and ran towards me. I picked him up and said, "Ms. Ernistine is your friend, remember?" and handed him off. He cried for a second and then stopped. She took him with her to erase the dry erase board. He loved it and was fine.
Today when I dropped Jackson off, Ms. Ernistine walked out of the classroom to get something. As soon as he saw her in the hall, he turned, buried his face in my leg, and wouldn't let go. I thought it was a sign it was going to be a bad drop off. I finally get him into his classroom and put away his stuff while he walked around (good sign). Then, I got a wipe to clean his face (which he actually likes). Instead of running to me, he ran to the toys and started playing. I decided to use that moment to say bye-bye and head for the door. He looked at me, looked at the toys, and went back to playing.
I know a lot of parents think it's a sad day when their kid doesn't look back at school and just wants to be with friends or play, but not me. I was overjoyed! Maybe I'll change my mind later, but for today it was a good start to the day. For two days in a row I didn't start my day with my heart being ripped out because Jackson is so upset that we're leaving him.
This is a long video, so it may not be for everyone, but it's mostly meant for one person. Uncle Stephen (Stockman) told us he left a present for Jackson at the house while we were out at the MacGregor/Morris family reunion 2010 (pics to follow).When we got home, we discovered the light box, aka "dark". Stephen had taken a tupperware container and fitted it with batteries, wires, lights, and, Jackson's favorite, a light switch. When we saw it, we knew Jackson would love it, so we decided to capture his first moments with it so Uncle Stephen could see how much his kindness is appreciated by his number one fan.
Yesterday Jackson took 2 steps. Good sign. He hasn't tried since.
Today we had the appointment with the specialist. He agreed there wasn't a break, but thinks there's a fracture.
He said 85% of kids under the age of 2, with a slide injury (usually going down with a parent), who refuse to walk, have a fracture. To be 100% sure Jackson would need a bone scan. The bone scan requires putting him under, giving him an IV with dye, and then doing the scan. It's expensive and an unnecessary danger. The doctor said if it's positive, they still don't do anything. Therefore, there's no point in doing the bone scan. With 3-7 days he should start walking with a limp. In 3 weeks he should walk without a limp. If not, we have to go back in. But, we do have to keep him from climbing, jumping, or playing on structures. That will be fun!
All in all this is good news. Never thought that 1 - I'd say a fracture is good news or 2 - that I would in some way contribute to fracturing my son's leg.
These are pictures of Jackson having fun at the park before the evil slide.
This is the evil slide. After crawling up the slide, Jackson wanted to go down the curly slide face first alone. Mommy decided it would be safer if she went down with him. They went down the curly slide a few times and Jackson had a blast. Then, he wanted to go down the evil slide face first alone. Once again, Mommy decided to go down it with him so it would be safer. The slide was much smaller and faster than anticipated. Poor Jackson got banged up on the way down and his feet caught the sides a couple of times. We thought he'd be okay, but after he finally calmed down he still wouldn't put weight on his leg.
We ended up taking him to the ER for an x-ray. After sitting there for 4 hours, we learned it wasn't broken, but the doctor (who was the nicest ER doctor I've ever seen) thinks he damaged the ligaments or cartilage in his left knee. But, at his age the doctor didn't know what they would do. He didn't think they would operate at his age. So, now we have to take him to a specialist on Tuesday.
While we were there, we got to experience the bright spot of Katy. I know this type of things happens elsewhere, we haven't ever seen anything like this in Katy. A trashy, trashy man came limping out of his room. A nurse asked where he was going and he said out to smoke. She explained that he couldn't because it's a non-smoking campus. He said he didn't care (with slightly different words) and went out. Blood was seeping through the thick, white towel wrapped around his foot. He went anyway. When he came back all hell broke lose. He was told he was discharged and would have to check in again if he wanted to have his foot treated or receive pain medication. He went nuts, cussing, yelling, screaming and shoving. Poor Jackson got scared and started crying. We overheard he got shot in the foot. Interesting... They had to chase them down in the parking lot to get them to sign some paperwork.
Jackson is sleeping right now. We hope he wakes up and can suddenly put weight on his leg.


The Pétrusse casemates are temporarily closed.
Their origin goes back to 1644, when the Spaniards reinforced the medieval fortifications. Under the supervision of the Swiss fortress builder Isaac von Treybach, they built - among other defence works-the powerful Beck Bastion, named after Governor Baron Johann von Beck, a native of the city who had played a key role in the Wallenstein affair on the side of the Emperor. Initially this bastion was as high as the adjacent terraces on the right; it was raised to the present level of Constitution Square (the wall is 27 meters high) by Vauban in 1685. In 1673 the Spaniards erected the so-called "Ravelin du Pate" to strengthen the defence of the Beck Bastion; this triangular construction is one of the few well-kept fortifications. Marshall de Vauban conferred the present shape to all the Petrusse fortifications and built the "Small Staircase". From 1728-29 the Austrians added the "Bourbon Lock" and the "Large Staircase" and in 1746 the casemates of the "Petrusse Battery" (54 gun emplacements). One century passed and the fortress was enlarged and reinforced: the second ring was extended and the third started, so that Luxembourg became the "Gibraltar of the North". By and by, the Petrusse fortifications fell into oblivion and neglect, as their strategic momentum limited itself to the valley. After the dismantling, stipulated by the 1867 London Treaty, they confined themselves to walling up the loopholes and most entrances. Only in 1933 were the Petrusse casemates valorized again: on 26th July, the first visitors were able to visit them.

You don't need to compromise flexibility training for strength work, according to Eric Lichter, director of football performance at The Ohio State University. He says the Romanian Deadlift "strengthens the glutes, hamstrings and lower back, [and] increases the flexibility of these essential football muscles."
USC football S+C coach Chris Carlisle explains that because the RDL is a closed-chain movement, the hamstrings and glutes work "in conjunction with each other so an imbalance or overdevelopment of one does not occur. This is the best way to train these muscles, because that is how they are used on the field."
Furthermore, the RDL prevents quad dominance, which often results from regularly performing lower body lifts, like Squats and Leg Presses. All in all, RDLs will help you achieve what flexibility programs are geared toward: injury prevention and improved performance.
Focus on: Working through a full range of motion, bringing dumbbells as low as flexibility allows. "The hamstrings are often overlooked, especially for big guys," says two-time Pro Bowl center LeCharles Bentley. He adds that tightness in the hamstrings is very common for offensive linemen throughout the course of a season, making the Dumbbell RDL a valuable in-season lift.
Focus on: "A massive stretch on the [hamstrings] and the glutes," says Luke Richesson, former performance specialist with Athletes' Performance and current strength coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
"The Speed RDL can be implemented [into] a speed and strength program with a lower-body emphasis," he says.
"The bottom line is we're training for symmetry. Many high school level athletes do a lot of lower-body pressing, but they neglect the pulling."
Focus on: Stability and balance on one foot. "So many athletes that are really strong on two legs, when we put them on one leg with a stimulus in their hands, they're all over the place," says Clif Marshall, performance director at Ignition Athletics Performance Group. "We try to work stability, balance and strengthening the hamstring."

Sex assaults mar bull run festival in Spain
Agence France-Presse / 08:13 AM July 16, 2017
Revelers run in front of a Puerto de San Lorenzo fighting bull during the third running of the bulls at the San Fermin Festival, in Pamplona, northern Spain, Sunday, July 9, 2017. Round-the-clock merrymaking in Pamplona has seen reports of rape and sexual molestation. AP
MADRID, Spain — Eleven people were arrested on suspicion of sexual assault at this year's infamous bull running festival in Pamplona, Spanish authorities said Saturday.
The annual San Fermin event, which sees hundreds of thousands of revelers pack into the city and engage in round-the-clock revelry, has been plagued by cases of sexual assault in recent years.
Pamplona city hall said police had received 14 complaints relating to sexual assault and molestation during the nine-day celebration.
Pamplona has stepped up its campaign against sexual assault at the festival after a 18-year-old woman was alleged to have been raped last year by five men from Seville, who also recorded the attack.
Municipal officials this year plastered the city with signs showing an open hand with the slogan: "Pamplona free of sexual aggressions".
The festival, immortalized in Ernest Hemingway's 1926 novel "The Sun Also Rises", dates back to medieval times and features religious processions, folk dancing, concerts and round-the-clock drinking.
But the highlight is a bracing daily test of courage against a thundering pack of half-ton fighting bulls through the city's cobbled streets.
Police said a total of 64 people were injured by bull's at this year's event — around a quarter fewer than in 2016. Twelve were hospitalized.
Despite the obvious danger, only 15 people have been killed during the bull runs since 1911, with the last fatality coming in 2009.
Anyone aged 18 or above can take part, though authorities warn it is at their risk. CBB

Abdelmajid Chaker (), né le  à Sfax et mort le  à Tunis, est un militant nationaliste et homme politique tunisien.

Biographie
Abdelmajid Chaker est le frère du militant Hédi Chaker.

Il appartient à une famille proche du Néo-Destour où émerge son frère Hédi qui en est son dirigeant à Sfax.

Pour sa part, il préside le bureau provisoire de l'Union générale des étudiants de Tunisie (UGET) en mars 1952. Une nouvelle présidence du bureau exécutif de l'UGET, débutée le , est controversée par le fait qu'il est recommandé par le Néo-Destour et n'est pas délégué au congrès, ce qui est contraire au règlement intérieur.

Il est arrêté fin  et condamné à dix ans de prison pour avoir mené une action de tracts et de fabrication de bombes artisanales. Il est gracié en 1954 et rejoint la France pour terminer ses études de droit.

Habib Bourguiba le désigne en août 1956 comme directeur du Néo-Destour en remplacement de Taïeb Mehiri. Il intègre son bureau politique en avril 1957. Durant son mandat, il joue un rôle tactique important durant la crise de Bizerte et dans le tournant socialiste. Il est élu trois fois député, en 1959, 1964 et 1969.

Il occupe les postes de ministre de l'Agriculture, du  au , et de l'Information, du  au , alors que Mohamed Sayah le remplace à la direction du Néo-Destour, devenu le Parti socialiste destourien (PSD), le .

Chaker, partisan de l'expérience de collectivisation menée par Ahmed Ben Salah, le soutient dans l'ultime réunion du Conseil de la république tenue le . À la suite de son éviction, il est écarté du cercle des décideurs alors que l'on met fin à l'expérience socialiste.

Bien qu'il soit élu au sein du comité central du PSD au congrès de Monastir en 1971, avec 455 voix, il n'est plus membre du bureau politique. Il occupe ensuite plusieurs postes diplomatiques, dont le dernier à Genève, avant de s'éloigner définitivement de la politique après l'ascension de Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali au pouvoir.
Il est actif au sein des Scouts tunisiens et du haut comité de soutien au Club sportif sfaxien.

Il fonde le Parti libre destourien tunisien démocratique, qui se déclare comme « héritier naturel du Destour » mais ne se déclare ni socialiste ni libéral. Il est légalisé le  mais un conflit l'oppose au secrétaire général du parti, Fayçal Triki, à propos de l'adhésion au Parti El Watani Ettounsi ; Triki est favorable à la fusion alors que Chaker préfère une simple coalition, le premier bénéficiant du soutien des membres du comité directeur qui retirent « démocratique » du nom du parti. Chaker rejoint alors Nidaa Tounes individuellement et non comme représentant d'un parti et intègre son comité exécutif. Il le quitte cependant par la suite pour rejoindre l'initiative d'Omar Shabou, le Mouvement des destouriens libres.

The deaf wife
A man goes to his doctor and says, "I don't think my wife's hearing is as good as it used to be, what should I do?"
The doctor replies, "Try this test to find out for sure. When your wife is in the kitchen doing dishes, stand fifteen feet behind her and ask her a question, if she doesn't respond keep moving closer asking the question until she hears you."
The man goes home and sees his wife preparing dinner. He stands fifteen feet behind her and says, "What's for dinner, honey?"
He gets no response, so he moves to ten feet behind her and asks again.
Still no response, so he moves to five feet. No answer.
Finally he stands directly behind her and says, "Honey, what's for supper?"
She replies, "For the fourth time, I SAID CHICKEN, you deaf bastard!"

Nobody! Figuratively, anyway. In the literal sense, many people do it and if you're shopping for a television mount, you've probably found designated corner rigs can be pricey. FireFold's WM-SM-SS-TSE is an affordable, flexible option. Whether you are, in fact, positioning your TV in a corner or you're trying to accommodate a recessed niche or a wide viewing area, articulating mounts can be just what you need to get the effect you're looking for. Articulating (or "full motion") mounts extend from the wall, tilt up and down, and swivel side to side, making them extremely versatile. This one will handle most TVs with screen sizes between 32" and 55" and weights under 40 lbs.
The WM-SM-SS-TSE has a single extension arm that can pull away from the wall up to 22". Completely folded up, it is less than four inches from the wall. Installation only requires one stud and the mount is small and light enough for a single person to complete the project from start to finish. It comes with full instructions and the hardware for classic wood stud mounting. For masonry or metal studs, you may need different hardware. Once hung, this articulating mount can tilt down 10 degrees and swivel a full 90 degrees side to side.
The WM-SM-SS-TSE can fit VESA mounting patterns up to 400x200. But what does that mean? How do you know if it will fit your screen? It's easy if you have your manual, a measuring tape, or the internet! Since you've obviously got web access, we'll start with the latter. A quick query of the search engine of your choice can usually answer your question for you. Just be sure you have your monitor or TV's exact model number as many manufacturers switch their mounting patterns from year to year. The VESA pattern should also be listed in the specs of your manual. If you don't have the manual and can't find the model number, or if you prefer to take a hands-on approach, you can calculate your VESA pattern yourself. Using a tape measure or ruler, measure the distance between the mounting holes on the back of the screen. Measure horizontally and vertically, not diagonally. There should be two numbers, both in millimeters. These numbers will be your VESA pattern.
