5 Empowering Lessons from "Writers In Their Prime: Navigating a Screenwriting Career At Any Age"
By Helenna SantosMarch 26, 2021April 29th, 2021No Comments
On March 24th, WeScreenplay, in partnership with the Meryl Streep-backed The Writers Lab, held a great panel as part of Actions for Positive Change, an ongoing virtual series where we explore specific ways to amplify diversity and inclusion in screenwriting.
"Writers In Their Prime: Navigating a Screenwriting Career At Any Age" featured Co-Founder of The Writers Lab Elizabeth Kaiden, The Writers Lab alum and ScreenCraft Drama Winner Kenyetta Raelyn, and accomplished writing team Mark & Anna Casadei. This panel focused on the specific challenges of starting a writing career at a later age in life and offered fantastic best practices, tips, and tricks.
Watch the full panel below and then continue on for 5 key takeaways!
Age and experience can be your biggest advantage
Often writers who are starting out later in life can feel like they are behind in some way, or like their age is a disadvantage. The panelists reiterated numerous times that while the industry does have a bad reputation regarding ageism, things are changing, and age and experience can be your biggest advantage.
Mark Cadadei said that "no one has ever asked us our age." The important thing has been "do you have a good story? We want to hear your story… Fade out isn't the end of the script, literally it's just the beginning. Now you have to transform your mind into a business-person… you sell yourself along with your story…they are meeting YOU. They want to see who YOU are as an individual. So, when someone comes in with all of these life experiences, it has started to perk a lot of people up. And they go, 'holy cow that's a pretty interesting backstory you have there. You've got some pretty cool things that you can add'."
Elizabeth Kaiden
Elizabeth Kaiden added that the "best thing to share when you are a writer… best foot to put forward… is who you are. Because truthfully, if you're a writer, you're a storyteller, and it's simply a matter of how well you tell your story. Quite frankly another 25-year-old writer from Los Angeles who has had no life experience and studies screenwriting in college is just not interesting. Whereas an engineer from Dayton, Ohio or an ex-military kid from Alaska might have some really interesting things to say, might have her own sense of humor, might even come with grey hair and glasses, and still make you crack up. How do YOU tell your own story?"
"Even before your scripts, especially when you're taking meetings, the first thing you are selling is you." Kenyetta Raelyn reiterated, "So, regardless of your age, you have to know who you are, and…you have to learn how to present yourself in a certain way and take the time to invest in yourself to figure that out."
You don't have to live in NY or LA to start a writing career
Building a career is all about community, networking, and knowledge, and the doors have been blown wide open for writers to have access to all of that at their fingertips.
It might take longer to get a career off the ground if you don't live in a major city for the entertainment industry, but it's not impossible. And truly, especially for this circumstance, there has never been a better time to leverage social media.
Anna Casadei mentioned that "while living in Alaska, [she went to UCLA online]…and got [her] screenwriting Masters certificate through there, and one of those scripts got optioned and went into development." She also "got a Manager. It was all through networking, through social media… As long as you are willing to put yourself out there…you're going to find those opportunities…you have to be more aggressive in a nice way, being your own advocate, being proactive, and getting yourself out there meeting the right people because you need that combination of good, solid work and connections."
Kenyetta Raelyn
Mark Casadei then emphasized that it's great to visit the market you want to work in one to two times a year. Specifically, he would meet someone on social media and then also in real life, to help grow those relationships.
"The pandemic has changed everything….People are more willing to meet online, which gives you more options about where you can be and that wasn't the case just 2 years ago." Kenyetta Raelyn said. She also was clear that "you have to have a social media presence" and it's important to be on the right side of the "digital divide. You must have a Twitter presence…at least a Facebook presence."
Mark and Kenyetta both offered that there are a number of great lists of industry professionals to follow on Twitter. These lists include prominent writers, managers, and executives. As Kenyetta said, "There are movers and shakers in the TV world," adding that it "gathers all their voices so you can subscribe and just get them in your feed… [that way you're] on the pulse of what's happening."
Contests can catapult your career
Contests like the numerous ones offered here at WeScreenplay are a fantastic way to get your name and your work out there.
In order to get that first general meeting, Elizabeth stated that "competitions, labs, any of those kinds of contests that you can apply to are helpful just in terms of cracking open the door. Because then you can write a letter saying, 'hey, I'm one of the finalists from, or hey, I just attended this lab', and it's just a way to bring you up out of the crowd a bit so somebody might actually respond to you."
Sarah Eagen, WeScreenplay's Head of Writer Development who moderated the panel, added, "We just had our spring Diverse Voices Lab…and there were general meetings that we set up for our writers. So, all the writers that were selected for the lab had general meetings with production companies, with literary managers or agents if they were still looking for representation, as well as group calls with some executives. So, they are getting that practice, they are getting those first meetings, so when they go in to pitch their own thing it's not going to be a foreign experience."
Your bio matters more than your resume
For those who have come to writing after having another career, there can be an intimidation factor when it comes to lack of experience in the industry on a resume. The good news? The consensus is that your bio matters more than your resume.
Mark said that "What you do in your day job can actually help you… if you're a Chef and you write a story about culinary, and they see that in your background, they love that!" Anna added, "It's going to show on the page." And Mark went on to encourage everyone to "never be afraid to put your life experience [out there] if it directly relates, especially to the story you're pitching to them…People love to know that you know what you're talking about."
Kenyetta agreed, "It's rare that anyone asks [her] for a resume, they're more interested in a bio. So, [she] think[s] it's really important to [craft a great bio]. 250 words are really all you need." She also added that it's good to incorporate your life experience into that 250-word bio "in a way that relates with what you write about."
A manager can help augment your hustle
Often when seeking representation, writers go straight to looking for an agent and by-pass partnering with a manager. Mark mentioned that "the reality is, that as a new writer starting out, you aren't going to get an agent… an agent's job is to make money… they want a client that they know they can market." He went on to say that "a manager is a different story. And what's nice about managers – managers work not only with you on your writing if you can find a good manager – but they work on your career progression and how that's going to look."
Mark & Anna Casadei
A great tip that came up, is to look for a manager in smaller boutique agencies with 20 to 30 clients. Elizabeth added that "the young managers who don't yet have a big client roster are hungry to do some hustling to find their people that they can do some hustling for," are great to partner with. "The most important thing in finding a manager match… that you find someone you like and get, who likes and gets you and what you're writing."
Mark also emphasized that "you are still responsible for your own hustle", but a manager "helps augment your hustle" to which Anna stated that you "need someone with the same level of hustle as you or higher".
When asked about the key to getting representation, all of the panelists reiterated that a writer needs to be at the point where they are ready for representation. They once again stated that it's a business and you have to be marketable. Kenyetta talked about using the contests that you enter and place in or win, as leverage to open doors. Mark added that when seeking representation, it's important to have a great portfolio with multiple scripts. He said to "have at least a minimum of 3 to 5 screenplays that you can show to them and say this is what I do." Whether those scripts are in the same genre or different genres, those scripts need to be polished, solid, and ready to go.
In conclusion, each panelist reiterated that no matter what age you are, the life you have lived and the experiences that you have had, all contribute to why your voice is valuable.
Definitely stay tuned for the next Actions for Positive Change event, and learn more about WeScreenplay's screenwriting contests!

10 Ways to Create One-of-a-Kind Script Ideas
Joanna KeJanuary 6, 2022
How to Set & Keep Screenwriting Goals
Shannon CorbeilDecember 23, 2021


In the 100 days that I have been at Ameinu I have been deeply impressed with the energy and passion of the organization's leadership — as well as activists around North America and partners in Israel — who see Ameinu as a profound expression of their Judaism. Particularly compelling for me is the forthright way that Ameinu, the embodiment of the Labor Zionist movement's hundred year history, wrestles with— and seeks to live – its identity as Progressive Zionists in the 21stcentury. While not a simple bumper sticker message, Ameinu understands of the multiplicity of values, goals and connections that we have as Jews, North Americans and human beings and seeks to make vitally important contributions to our community.
Ameinu's vision for the Jewish community resonates strongly with my own experience growing up in the Young Judea Zionist Youth Movement with rich family roots in Habonim and Pioneer Women. My future activism was in great part formed by what I learned in YJ and the peer leadership tradition of the movement. It guided my college work with the Brandeis Progressive Zionist Caucus, in the Soviet Jewry movement and ultimately as head of HIAS, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society. Throughout, I have consistently sought out activist visions for Jewish life that merge an intense particularist concern for Israel and vulnerable Jewish communities with a universalist approach that fully embeds Jewish life within national and humanitarian values. Ameinu is such a place.
Clearly as Zionists we are devoted to the security of Israel and to helping build a peaceful and prosperous future for its citizens. Israel is the fulfillment of thousands of years of Jewish longing for a home and we Progressive Zionists have played a central role in helping to create the vibrant Jewish homeland we have today. It is because of this existential Jewish connection to Israel that Ameinu will never give up on the struggle for a just and secure peace between Israel, the Palestinians and all of her neighbors. We are driven by Herzl's call to action "If you will it, it is no dream." And we are inspired by Israeli Justice Minister and chief negotiator MK Tzipi Livni who said, "History is not made by cynics, but by realists who are not afraid." Cynicism and hopelessness are luxuries that we as Zionists cannot afford – now or ever.
As Progressive Zionists, our movement cares about the quality of Israeli society, not just the mere fact that a Jewish state exists. Will Israel fulfill the idealistic promise of its Declaration of Establishment – with its commitment to equality for all its inhabitants – Jew and non-Jew alike? Progressive Zionists can't simply pay lip-service to this idea, declaring that Israel must remain a Jewish and democratic state while taking actions that threaten Israeli democracy. If Israel is to be a just society, then both Israel and its ardent friends in the Diaspora must work together to ensure that the state treats minority populations equally with the Jewish majority, that the economically vulnerable have a strong social safety net and economic mobility to reach their full potential, that economic development proceeds in an environmentally sustainable manner, that Israel strives for leadership in global humanitarian responses to international crises, and so much more. For decades, Ameinu has stood and worked together with our Israeli partners to fulfill this vision of social and economic justice in the Jewish state.
So how can Ameinu and Progressive Zionists in North America and throughout the Jewish world fulfill the promise of our history and our values? I believe we must lead, organize and act to foster economic and social justice in our own countries and across the globe. We must fight dire poverty at home and abroad, promote a living wage and labor rights, provide a strong social safety net for the needy, welcome immigrants and protect refugees, promote civil and human rights, combat the epidemic of gun violence be true partisans of global peace, defend democracy and voting rights, compassionately and generously address humanitarian disasters, prevent genocide while caring for its victims and sustain the earth for future generations.
Ameinu is already moving forward to respond to these daunting challenges. We have briefly outlined an ambitious set of economic and social justice goals that will guide our advocacy in the weeks, months and years to come. [Watch this space for details on the goals and opportunity to join in advocating for justice.] Clearly a huge amount needs to be done and I welcome the chance to participate in a dialog with activists at home and abroad as we study, debate and organize together. I look forward to hearing from you – feel free to contact me at Gideon@Ameinu.net – to share your ideas on priorities and strategies to best reach our goals. Together, we can create our Progressive Zionist vision for the future.
L'shalom, and may we and the movement go from strength to strength.

Motor Neurone Disease Week: Inverness nurse and Inverurie grandfather speak about diagnosis
by Michelle Henderson
Angus Paterson with his wife Carole in Dundee.

A student nurse from Inverness is helping to raise awareness of Motor Neurone Disease (MND) after becoming the youngest sufferer in the Highlands.
MND is a rapidly progressing terminal illness, which stops signals from the brain reaching the muscles. Sufferers can lose the ability to walk, talk, eat, drink or breathe unaided.
Sheree Gregg , 28, who lives on the Black Isle, was first diagnosed with the terminal illness in March following 16 months of gruelling tests.
Sheree Gregg, 28, was diagnosed with the condition in March.
The University of Stirling student began noticing a change after she started to lose the strength in her hands, resulting in her dropping items more frequently.
Speaking for the first time in aid of MND Action Week, she said: "Within the past year it's progressed so much – I can't put gloves on and I struggle with a lot of daily tasks. Getting ready, changing my clothes, doing my hair, preparing and eating meals are just a few and these are only going to get harder over time. I've got three fingers which don't extend at all anymore, they're just stuck and don't move. The muscle wasting is now really quite noticeable up into shoulder."
As Miss Gregg looks to the future, she says more people need to be "much more aware" of the implications.
She said: "I think people need to be much more aware about what this illness is and what it does. The amount of people that I've spoken to who say 'oh well you can get some tablets for that' or 'you just need a bit of rest'. When you tell them there's no cure, and you have to explain it's a terminal illness and that I won't get any better, it'll just get worse, and they still don't really understand."
Meanwhile, life for Aberdeenshire grandfather-of-four Angus Paterson, 74, has been turned upside down after being diagnosed with the debilitating condition in July last year.
The former Avionics Engineer, from Inverurie, went to the doctor after he began falling over.
He said: "My life is chalk and cheese compared to before the diagnosis. I used to play golf, which of course I can't now because I can't sit in a wheelchair and swing a golf club. I used to love sailing too, which I can't do anymore either.
"It was very hard accepting these things but I'm starting to get used to it. I can't drive either and I think that was the hardest one. I feel a bit in limbo at the moment as I don't know what to do with myself but I'm sure I'll find something to do to replace these things."

India to chair crucial UNSC sanction committees on Taliban and Libya
9 January, 2021 | newsx bureau
India is all set to chair three crucial subsidiary committees, Taliban and Libya sanctions committees as well as the Counter-Terrorism committee. This is India's eighth tenure at the UNSC as a non-...
India began its two-year tenure at the United Nation Security Council as a non-permanent member on January 1. After this addition, India is all set to chair three crucial subsidiary committees, Taliban and Libya sanctions committees as well as the Counter-Terrorism committee, announced the government.
India's permanent representative to UN, Tirumurti said that the Taliban Sanctions Committee has always been a high priority for India, keeping in mind its strong interest in Afghanistan. India aims to keep the focus on the presence of terrorists and their sponsors threatening the peace process in Afghanistan. "It has been our view that the peace process and violence cannot go hand in hand," he said.
India's responsibility of chairing this committee has put it in a position, where it will have a crucial say in the Afghan peace process. Its chairing of the Libya Sanctions Committee will put it in close consultations with all major world and regional powers, including the US, Russia, Turkey and UAE.

"We will be assuming the chair of this committee at a critical juncture when there is international focus on Libya and on the peace process," said Tirumurti. India is positioned to chair the CTC in 2022, which coincides with the country's 75th anniversary of Independence.
"The chairing of this committee has a special resonance for India, which has not only been in the forefront of fighting terrorism, especially cross-border terrorism, but has also been one of its biggest victims," added Tirumurti.

On Thursday, September 9th, Utah Department of Public Safety (DPS) Commissioner Jess Anderson, members of the Utah Legislature and administration and staff from the State Crime Lab gathered to announce the completion of a milestone in the DNA testing of sexual assault kits. Utah is the 8th state to eliminate its backlog of sexual assault kits.
The project involved significant efforts and cooperation between many different agencies and entities, including law enforcement, prosecutors, the legislature, forensic scientists, victim advocates, and health care providers. The completion of the testing will help Utah enhance its criminal justice system and ensure justice for victims.
Through the cooperative efforts to eliminate the state's backlog, the following results have been achieved:
11,193 previously unsubmitted and untested rape kits were submitted and tested
5,025 DNA profiles have been uploaded into CODIS, the national Combined DNA Index System
1,072 suspects have been identified in CODIS and sent to law enforcement agencies for further investigation
We Made This a Priority
Utah DPS Commissioner Jess Anderson
DPS Commissioner Anderson recognized the Legislature for the critical role its members played in leading to this milestone achievement.
"Legislators have been our partners through this entire endeavor," he said. "It's been their vision and their drive to see this through that's helped us get to this day. "
"We as Utah and DPS made this a priority," Commissioner Anderson said. "Since 2015, with the support of the legislature and $2 million out of DPS' own budget, we've processed 11,193 sex assault kits, uploaded 5,025 DNA profiles into DNA profile database, and identified just under 2,000 suspects."
Commissioner Anderson said that processing time for sexual assault kits has been reduced to 90 days and that DPS has set a goal to get that down to 30 days.
A Victory for Survivors of Sexual Assault
Utah State Representative Angela Romero
"This isn't a Democrat or Republican issue," said State Representative Angela Romero. "This is a human rights issue that we had to take care of and we had to bring a voice to survivors of sexual assault."
"From the bottom of my heart I thank everyone who helped me pass this legislation," she said. "This is really a victory for survivors of sexual assault and hopefully they'll receive justice. And I thank everyone here who worked with us to make this happen."
Representative Romero was the sponsor of HB 200 in the 2017 legislative session. The bill initiated the sexual assault kit testing process by requiring all of the following: the testing of all sexual assault kits within a specified amount of time, the development and implementation of a statewide sexual assault kit tracking system, the development and presentation of training for law enforcement officer for trauma-informed and survivor-centered responses and investigations of sexual assault and sexual abuse.
A Milestone for Our State
Utah Senate President J. Stuart Adams
"Eliminating Utah's sexual assault kit backlog is a milestone for our state," said Senate President J. Stuart Adams. "As a lawmaker who has worked on this issue for years, getting to this point is gratifying. However, our work is not complete. We are committed to standing up for sexual assault victims by continuing to implement policies and funding systems, like CODIS. Providing vital information and resources enables law enforcement agencies to find perpetrators quickly, preventing additional assaults from occurring."
The Beginning of Our Continued Pursuit of Justice
Dr. Julie Valentine
Dr. Julie Valentine is a professor and Brigham Young University and a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner. In the latter role, she see patients who have been sexually assaulted and uses a sexual assault kit to collect evidence from the victim.
"Many years ago, my patients would ask me, after having a rape kit collected, they would ask me, 'So what happens to my rape kit? What happens to the evidence collected from my body?'" Dr. Valentine related at the press conference. "The truthful answer was, 'I don't know.'"
To find out, Dr. Valentine started research that revealed that only about 20% of rape kits were being submitted for analysis. After she shared this information with law enforcement officers, prosecutors, Utah's Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice, victim advocates, legislators, "Utah rallied, Utah came together to say 'We need this information,'" Dr. Valentine said. "As a primary author of our original federal grants, I dreamed of today. Now when I take care of a patient and they ask me 'So what's going to happen to my rape kit? What's going to happen to the evidence they collected from my body?' I can truthfully tell them, 'this will be submitted and this will be tested.'"
Dr. Valentine said that testing the rape kits supports vicitims and it gives them a voice. "It tells them 'you matter and we care but it also uses science to establish justice. We have cases where testing the rape kit it shows us
In her concluding remarks, Dr. Valentine noted, "We can't consider today the end of the backlog of testing the rape kits, it has to be the beginning of our continued pursuit of justice and eradicating sexual violence."
The Whole Nation Should Be Paying Attention To What is Happening Here in Utah Today
Utah State Representative Eric Hutchings
State Representative Eric Hutchings discussed the completion of sexual assault kit testing in the larger framework of current efforts toward police reform saying, "This is the type of policing, this is the type of public safety that our nation is begging for."
Representative Hutchings noted the collaborative effort that helped achieve the testing completion and said, "I couldn't be more proud that Utah again has taken the time to step up and step out…I'm really grateful that we had the foresight to get on it and to do it and to do it right."
"I think the entire nation is going to benefit from the example Utah is setting with the technology and capabilities it is embracing that will help us better protect our communities than we ever have been able to do," said Representative Hutchings.
Justice That Sits on a Self For Years Isn't Justice – It's Injustice
Utah State Senator Jake Anderegg
Utah State Senator Jake Anderegg recognized Representative Romero for her role in getting the state to this point.
"Representative Romero brought it to our attention and we realized this area had been neglected or at least underserved, we knew we had to do something. Because justice that sits on a shelf for years is not justice – it's injustice," he said.
"We are striving every day to improve," Senator Anderegg said. "This is a great example of what I think can happen when we come together and I think we've got a lot more to do and I look forward to it."
Where We Go From Here As A State
Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson
The Utah Legislature recently appropriated additional, on-going funding of $1.6 million to the crime lab to support future efforts. Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson provided details about the "three simple but very important things" this funding is designed to do.
Speaker Wilson noted that it will "provide resources to continue reducing turn around time in the crime lab so we can get information to law enforcement quicker [and] to help victims faster."
"It will allow the state crime lab to implement technology that will solve cases where DNA results previously had been inconclusive," he said.
In addition to being able to get better information to solve crimes, the funding will also allow the crime lab to "implement some additional new technology that provides additional information about DNA samples using a singular process that can help solve cold cases," which have not been able to be solved using current and previous technology.
State Crime Lab Director Jay Henry
State Crime Lab Director Jay Henry concluded the press event by thanking the crime lab staff, who have worked diligently to eliminate the sexual assault kit backlog. He also thanked the Legislature for their commitment to helping ensure the Crime Lab had the resources necessary to achieve this goal. "This investment in public safety is going to pay dividends to law enforcement, to suspects that have been wrongly accused and also, importantly, to victims," said Henry


Sunrise on the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year and the longest night of the year.
In the United States and the rest of the northern hemisphere, the first day of the winter season is the day of the year when the Sun is farthest south (on December 21st or 22nd). This day is known as the Winter Solstice. The term solstice means "sun stands still." As the Earth rotates on its tilted axis and circles the sun each year, the sun appears to change its position very little during this time of the year.
This astronomical event officially arrives this Friday, December 21, 2018 at 5:23 p.m. EST. At this time of year, each day is about 24 hours, 30 seconds long. The winter solstice, also known as midwinter, is the shortest day of the year and the longest night of the year. It occurs when the sun appears at its most southerly position.
This year's winter solstice is unique since a full moon will appear full both Friday and Saturday nights. According to Michelle Ganney, the names of the moon originate from the Native Americans, who marked December's full moon as the beginning of the coldest part of the year. The Long Night Moon is named after the longest night of the year on the winter solstice.
In addition, a meteor shower will be on display in the nighttime sky. The American Meteor Society points out that the Ursid meteor shower should be visible in the mid-Northern Hemisphere. At the peak there should be about 11 sporadic meteors per hour just before dawn. The shower gets its name because its meteors appear to emanate from Ursa Minor, also known as the Little Dipper. Unfortunately, the full moon makes the meteors hard to spot.
A few years ago an observation on the winter solstice inspired this response which has implications for today.
Brilliant meteors linger to impress.
Wonders appear to those with eyes to see.
Revealing a more sure word of prophecy.
Let us fix our eyes toward the Eastern sky.
And look up, for our redemption draws nigh.
But understand the meaning of these things.
5 Just as you do not know the way and path of the wind or how the bones are formed in the womb of a pregnant woman, even so you do not know the activity of God who makes all things.
Just as you don't understand what the life-breath does in the fetus inside a pregnant woman's womb, so you can't understand the work of God, who makes everything happen.
17 and I saw all the work of God, I concluded that man cannot discover the work that is done under the sun. Even though man may labor in seeking, he will not discover; and [more than that], though a wise man thinks and claims he knows, he will not be able to find it out.
11 He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.
We find another illustration of the incomprehensible greatness of God Almighty in Romans 11: 33-35., as the Apostle Paul offers what has been designated as a doxology or hymn of praise. Derived from two Greek words, doxa, meaning "glory" and legein, meaning "to speak," these verses give praise to the indescribable virtues of God.
33 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and decisions and how unfathomable and untraceable are His ways! 34 For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been His counselor? 35 Or who has first given to Him that it would be paid back to him?

Japanese electronic appliances manufacturer Toshiba says the recent Jessye Norman and Midori concerts in Bangkok are testimony to its mission to contribute to society in diverse ways.
'Toshiba is all about good products at reasonable prices. And we want to transfer this theory to culture too, which is why we have brought world-class artists at affordable prices' said Kobkarn Wattanavrangkul, vice president for Thai Toshiba Group of Companies, yesterday.
Norman was brought in by The International Peace Foundation, while Midori's concert was in conjunction with the Bangkok Symphony Orchestra. Both artists performed charity concerts.
'The two concerts did not cost more than Bt5 million, but brought together a wide variety of people. They expanded the tastes of local audiences;' Kobkarn said.
'There's the belief that culture is only for the rich, but we believe it's for all people,' she said.
Many corporations promote sports, but not culture, as they feel it is an expensive proposition.
'But we worked hard to prove this wrong and focused on art, culture and education;' said Kobkarn referring to the variety international artists Toshiba has brought to the country for more than a decade.
This is why Kobkarn was happy with the master classes that Midori held for young music students in the city, for which she charged little than her basic honorarium.
�Midori has a great commitment to spread music in the community,� Kobkarn said.
'We want to bring the heart back to the community. Business is not just about the brain but the heart too. At Toshiba we firmly believe that the materialistic world is not all about profits and products. As the materialistic world expands, so should the world of humanity,' she said.
Toshiba has four companies with nearly 4,000 workers in the country, and everyone was involved in the cultural programmes of the group.'We don't calculate sales and returns in this field, as we believe that there are hidden benefits for, everyone,' said Kobkarn.
Kobkarn, who won an International Woman's Entrepreneur Award recently, is particularly proud of the art competition Toshiba holds every year, which brings in at least 2,000 entries at five levels from kindergarten to university.
Toshiba says this cultural and educational ethos is manifested by its companies around the world.
The Tokyo office sponsors a jazz festival every year, while the London branch supports the Asian section of the Prince Albert Museum and the Science Museum.
The New York branch backs the 'Explora Vision' science project, with science teachers' associations in schools.


PLEASANTON, Calif., May 6, 2009 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) -- Adept Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:ADEP), a leading provider of intelligent vision-guided robotic solutions, today announced financial results for its 2009 fiscal third quarter ended March 28, 2009.
Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased 52% to $7.7 million, compared to $16.1 million for the same period last year, and decreased 30% from $11.0 million in the second quarter. The decrease in revenue was driven by a decrease in orders across all industries and services business in January and February 2009 reflecting the global economic downturn affecting the Company's customers. The Company reported a GAAP net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.42 per share, which compares to net income of $983,000, or $0.12 per fully diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and a net loss of $4.6 million, or $0.57 per share in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Adjusted EBITDA loss was $2.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2009, compared with adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. A discussion of this non-GAAP measure and reconciliation of this measure to the applicable GAAP measure is included below.
Gross margin was 38.2% of revenue in the third fiscal quarter of 2009, compared with 46.3% of revenue in the third quarter of 2008 and 42.2% in the second quarter of 2009. Adept's gross margins were negatively impacted by lower volumes which caused under-absorption of fixed manufacturing expenses, although the Quattro product margin remained steady throughout the quarter. Operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2009 were $6.4 million, compared to operating expenses of $6.6 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2008 and $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2009.
During the quarter, Adept implemented new expense reductions expected to result in quarterly savings of approximately $1 million starting in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, which began on March 29, 2009, with the full effect realized in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, which begins on July 1, 2009. Included in the savings were additional voluntary executive salary reductions lowering the base salary of our CEO by 15% and of other executive management by 10%, which together with salary reductions effected in January 2009, reflects a total reduction of 35% and 20%, respectively, in addition to other employee salary reductions.
Adept's cash and short-term investment balance at March 28, 2009 was $8.7 million, as compared to $11.0 million reported as of December 27, 2008.
"We experienced a significant slowdown in January and February of this year as a result of the worldwide recession," said John Dulchinos, Adept's president and chief executive officer. "We saw numerous customers idle production lines and delay capital investments in the first two months of the year, which had a significant impact on our revenue. We are encouraged by an increase in activity since then, including a 29% increase in Quattro orders during the quarter, indicating that our business may be stabilizing. Looking forward we continue to focus on managing our resources and returning to cash flow positive operations. We took steps during the quarter to reduce our operating expenses by $1 million per quarter, which should be fully reflected in our first fiscal quarter of 2010. We have now secured a $5 million line of credit and our balance sheet remains strong. With our realigned cost structure we are confident that we have sufficient cash to weather this downturn. With our new product offerings and solid design wins in our key markets of packaging and solar, we are also confident we are well positioned to return to growth and profitability once the economy begins to recover."

Amazon: The Largest Online Shopping Websites in the World
Subject: Marketing Topic: Article
Amazon was founded in 1995 by Jeff Bezos and is based out of Seattle, Washington. Amazon is one of the largest online shopping websites in the world. This site is widely known for its wide selection of books, although the site has expanded to sell electronics, music, furniture, and apparel. Similar to eBay, users can also purchase and sell items using Amazon's online marketplace system.
The company was originally a book seller but has expanded to sell a wide variety of consumer goods and digital media as well as its own electronic devices, such as the Kindle e-book reader, Kindle Fire tablet and Fire TV, a streaming media adapter.
Amazon has separate retail websites for the United States, the United Kingdom and Ireland, France, Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Australia, Brazil, Japan, China, India, and Mexico. Amazon also offers international shipping to certain other countries for some of its products. In 2016, Dutch and Polish language versions of the German Amazon website were launched.
In 2015, Amazon surpassed Walmart as the most valuable retailer in the United States by market capitalization, and is, as of 2016 Q3, the fourth most valuable public company.
History about Amazon.com
Jeff Bezos incorporated the company as "Cadabra" on July 5, 1994. Bezos changed the name to Amazon a year later after a lawyer misheard its original name as "cadaver". In September 1994, Bezos purchased the URL Relentless.com and briefly considered naming his online store Relentless, but friends told him the name sounded a bit sinister. The domain is still owned by Bezos and still redirects to the retailer. The company went online as Amazon.com in 1995.
Bezos is said to have browsed a dictionary for a word beginning with "A" for the value of alphabetic placement. He selected the name Amazon because it was "exotic and different" and as a reference to his plan for the company's size to reflect that of the Amazon River, one of the largest rivers in the world.
Amazon is headquartered in Seattle, Washington. The company has individual websites, software development centers, customer service centers and fulfillment centers in many locations around the world.
Amazon announced on October 11, 2016, plans to build convenience stores and develop curbside pickup locations for food. In December 2016, the Amazon Go store was opened to Amazon employees in Seattle. The store uses a variety of sensors and automatically charges a shopper's Amazon account as they walk out of the store, therefore there are no checkout lines. The store is planned to open for the general public in early 2017.
In 2011, Amazon had 30,000 full-time employees in the USA and by the end of 2016, it had 180,000 employees. It employed 306,800 people in full- and part-time jobs worldwide.
Amazon's Website
The domain amazon.com attracted at least 615 million visitors annually by 2008. Amazon attracts over 130 million customers to its US website per month by the start of 2016. The company has also invested heavily on a massive amount of server capacity for its website, especially to handle the excessive traffic during the December Christmas holiday season.
It allows users to submit reviews to the web page of each product. Reviewers must rate the product on a rating scale from one to five stars. Amazon provides a badging option for reviewers which indicate the real name of the reviewer (based on confirmation of a credit card account) or which indicate that the reviewer is one of the top reviewers by popularity. Customers may comment or vote on the reviews, indicating whether they found a review helpful to them. If a review is given enough "helpful" hits, it appears on the front page of the product. In 2010, Amazon was reported as being the largest single source of Internet consumer reviews.
To avoid copyright violations, Amazon does not return the computer-readable text of the book. Instead, it returns a picture of the matching page, instructs the web browser to disable printing, and puts limits on the number of pages in a book a single user can access. Additionally, customers can purchase online access to some of the same books via the "Amazon Upgrade" program.
Associates can access the Amazon catalog directly on their websites by using the Amazon Web Services (AWS) XML service. A new affiliate product, aStore, allows Associates to embed a subset of Amazon products within another website, or linked to another website. In June 2010, Amazon Seller Product Suggestions was launched (rumored to be internally called "Project Genesis") to provide more transparency to sellers by recommending specific products to third-party sellers to sell on Amazon. Products suggested are based on customers' browsing history.
Amazon Prime is a paid service ($99 per year, plus a free 30-day trial or $10.99 per month) that gives Amazon shoppers a few distinct advantages. Members of Amazon Prime are eligible for free one- or two-day shipping on most items, among several other perks.
In 2005, Amazon's Prime subscription offered free two-day shipping and lower one-day rates. Prime membership increasingly offers other benefits, including unlimited video and music streaming, photo storage and e-book lending.
Multi-Level Sales Strategy
Amazon employs a multi-level e-commerce strategy. Amazon started off by focusing on Business-to-Consumer relationships between itself and its customers, and Business-to-Business relationships between itself and its suppliers but it then moved to incorporate Customer-to-Business transactions as it realized the value of customer reviews as part of the product descriptions. It now also facilitates customer to customer with the provision of the Amazon marketplace which act as an intermediary to facilitate consumer to consumer transactions. The company lets almost anyone sell almost anything using its platform. In addition to an affiliate program that lets anybody post Amazon links and earn a commission on click-through sales, there is now a program which lets those affiliates build entire websites based on Amazon's platform.
On 2 February 2016, General Growth Properties' CEO, Sandeep Mathrani, during a year-end conference call with investors, analysts and reporters mentioned that Amazon plans to roll out 300 to 400 bookstores around the country. This was an unconfirmed comment, however, due to the source, a media frenzy ensued. In November 2015, Amazon opened its first physical bookstore location. It is aptly named, Amazon Books and is located in University Village in Seattle. The store is 5,500 square feet and prices for all products match those on its website.

Hey Lynn! Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question! Mickey's Backyard BBQ is so much fun, you are going to have a great time.
I see where on the official menu it says 'and more'. I did some digging on some of my favorite unofficial Disney fan websites and here is what I found. As of June 2015 the menu is chicken, ribs, hot dogs, jambalaya, honey-mustard baked chicken, veggies, salads, corn on the cob, cornbread, baked beans, watermelon, marble cake, warm fruit cobbler, strawberry shortcake (when in season), beer, wine, sangria, lemonade, and iced tea. I don't see chicken nuggets or french fries listed on any of the sites I looked at. The menu can change at anytime without notice, so please do keep that in mind.


When you are writing your research proposal for your dissertation you might struggle to make it better or to simply find the motivation to do it at all. Have no fear because many students have been in your shoes before and more will follow.
When you are writing an essay, you can turn to a system of motivations. Some students use punishment as a motivator, while others use rewards. Still, others use feedback.
If you want motivational feedback, you can turn to a trusted group of friends, a writing group, or your loving family to give you the feedback that you need. If, for example, you need to hear how you are brilliant, it might be best to call your grandmother. They are often great at that.
It is perfectly reasonable to tell the person from whom you are seeking feedback what type of feedback you want. You can tell your reader that you want to see only if they can grasp your main argument, and that you know the draft is very rough and not properly edited. Then they can turn around and tell you "yes I got the main argument" instead of "wow that was really poorly written, with bad transitions and a lot of errors".
While you are writing, you should give yourself rewards. Create a deadline for your first draft, and when you finish, do something that will make you cherish the accomplishment such as eating a tub of ice cream, renting your favorite movie, or meeting a friend for coffee. A tangible reward, no matter how small it is, can give you the dose of additional motivation that you need to finish your essay.
Some students need to schedule daily rewards to motivate their essay writing. If you really love to watch your favorite television show, and you happen to own the full seasons on DVD, you can reward yourself each night before bed with one episode, assuming you completed the amount of work you needed to do for the day.
For some students, punishments work best. Instead of rewarding every accomplishment, they tell themselves that if they fail to finish ____ by a particular date, then they won't be able to do ____.
Find a method of motivation that works best for you and use it to produce top notch papers.

Successful, Profitable Website Im happy to introduce two new Boxes for Thesis Professionals today: contact chris pearson thesis Google Tag Manager and master phd thesis Google Analytics. Fallout, then, after all that, about a week later Chris announced that Thesis was moving to a split GPL license. For now, the first thing Chris should do is actually consider respecting open source and GPL. In June, a three-person panel was assigned to the case. If so, how much does Chris Pearsons approach and style throughout the feud play into it? Chris, on the other hand seems to be trapped in a scarcity mindset. All of these reasons not to post bikini pics. On the redirected m website, Automattic never alludes to any connection with Pearsons Thesis framework.
In response, Pearson filed a domain dispute with the National Arbitration Forum, seeking ownership of the domain for himself. Automattic does not offer any products or services using the thesis name. The Case for Automattic, in response, Automattic raised their own contentions: Thesis is a generic term. In this case, however, the community is mostly against, automattic. Chris Pearson published a rather vocal and passionate explanation of his stand, wherein he questioned Matts decision and intentions behind the purchase of the m domain name, and went as far as wondering whether Automattic were operating with a selective bias on their mind!

Chapter 102: The MC Actually Had a Plan?
Posted on September 3, 2015 by mike777ac
"This is so~ fucking gross~! Can't you bastards please stop exploding on me?! You're making me feel like a dirty whore! Ugh, die cleaner! Oh for fuck's sake! I don't want your scabies, I already have plenty of weird diseases already, so go away~! Rah, no, that's a bad touch! Kill these bastards faster damn it!" Michael was trapped inside of a cocoon of Goblins, Orcs, Hobgoblins, Imps, and Hellhounds, but none of them could actually attack him anymore, because everyone was being crushed by the piles of corpses outside.
Not only were there dead bodies in the thousands, but plenty of living enemies were trying to get to the Nephilim at the center, while being bombarded by bullets and cannonballs. After five minutes of that, the hordes were starting to thin and Simon finally decided to personally take action.
He roared "Move outta the way you stupid fuckers!" as he and several of his Super-Elite melee fighters, began utilizing their 'Enrage' skill to kill their own forces. The Boss' gigantic, flaming glaive, looked like it was completely made out of crimson steel.
Michael used his wisp-form to observe the chaos outside, while he was physically trapped by the living bodies of burly Orc men and women. As he saw the colossal weapon, easily cleaving through the backs of level-fifteen, rank-E, heavily armored, Elite Warriors, he muttered "What a dumbass… Well, whatever, this is what I was hoping for, hehehe~. It's a shame though; that's definitely an Epic, but even if I kill him, I won't be able to take it."
Then he finally found his targets; waiting a few hundred meters behind their leader, were his most trusted and powerful Healers, along with an Archmage of Fire, a High-Shaman of Water, and a lightly armored Super-Elite Marksman. Michael 'Whispered' his partner, who already seemed to be in the area: "You take the Chaos Sage, I'll kill the High-Priestess of Darkness."
The moment that he materialized behind that three-meter tall Ogress, his favorite spell had leveled-up: "Astral Step Level 3: During Astral Projection, the caster immediately teleports to the location of their incorporeal astral-form. Costs 80% of the caster's maximum Mana."
An instant later, his blade stabbed through the back of that pitch-black robe, and cleanly bisected the huge woman. Even Sarah was able to pierce her Obsidian Wakizashi through the spine of that Super-Elite Hobgoblin man.
His Health didn't instantly fall to zero, but he was paralyzed, and when she channeled Hate-Strike into the wound, the blood-vessels in his brain quickly froze. Even though the skill had leveled-up to three, the description didn't actually change and even the mana-cost remained the same.
They were two of the most important weapons in Simon's arsenal, and he didn't even realize that they died. In fact, even the two squishy casters and the leather-clad Marksman had no idea what was happening a dozen meters behind them.
The Archmage of Fire and the High-Shaman of Water were both Hobgoblins; the former was male, while the latter was a beautiful woman. Both of them were only about five-feet tall, and each had around fifty HP. Thus, when Michael teleported behind the two, he was able to utilize a single horizontal slash, to bisect them.
When the Ogre Marksman was about to scream, a strange glowing ball was telekinetically thrown directly into his mouth and blocking off his airway. At the same moment, Sarah 'Shadow-Stepped' onto his left shoulder, and then shoved her slender blade into his left carotid artery.
His Defense Rating was relatively high, but she was still able to land a critical hit and cause him to start bleeding excessively. As he tried to grab her, she crawled around the back of his head and slashed off his right ear.
By that time, Michael activated Arcane Pull, and the glowing ball yanked the terrified Ogre from inside of his throat, completely crushing his trachea. Without even being able to resist, a huge sword was impaled through his sternum, and swiftly removed the rest of his Health.
After that, the two of them rampaged around the hundreds of Mages, Priests, and Archers, who were left out of that ongoing, gigantic catastrophe. There were so many explosions and screams, that when the Nephilim and Dark-Goblin began massacring the ranged forces, Simon and the others were completely unaware.
Actually, since they were 'Enraged,' it would have been nearly impossible for them to pay attention to something that was happening so far away. Two of his Ultra-Elite Ogre Berserkers were even trying to kill each-other, and eventually teamed up against him.
Casually watching that scene unfold with his Astral Projection, Michael was laughing hysterically, as his body was unconsciously hacking and slashing apart a ridiculous number of squishy enemies. While in 'auto-fight' mode, he still had to order himself to use spells or perform complicated actions; yet, he would instinctively use that 'Aegis' on his left hand to block spells and arrows, while the right would use the Arcane Siegeblade as both a shield and a sword.
Sarah however, had to constantly and carefully use her superhuman Agility and reflexes, to narrowly avoid being killed by random shots that were aimed at the fluffy-winged, giant glowing beacon of death. She had to struggle to survive, but was actually grinning and snickering quietly, as she teleported around and slaughtered dozens of enemies per minute.
Even though they couldn't gain experience, their Passives and skills were rapidly improving. After half an hour, the cannons, muskets and just about everyone else on the walls had run out of ammo; only Captain Shiro and a few of his Lieutenants still had bullets left to fire.
However, the twenty-thousand enemies were whittled down to one. A single, complete insane, severely wounded, six-meter tall, High-Orc Hell Knight.
Simon was using his Epic glaive to continuously crush, slash and hack apart the mutilated pile of corpses that laid before him. He was laughing maniacally, while roaring "I finally kill you, fucking Nephilim bastard!"
His thick crimson armor had dozens of scales falling off of it, and his helmet had been lost at some point, revealing his hideously scarred face. That colossus still had 450/750 Health left though, and while his Stamina had dwindled, Mana was constantly regenerating.
Michael knew that it was going to be a tough fight, and was standing next to Sarah and Captain Shiro on the southern ramparts. The middle-aged Feline Dwarf sighed loudly, "Are ya sure ya wanna fight against that monster? After seein what ya did out there, I won't doubt yer skills, but even if he only hits ya once… Well, I'm sure ya already know what'll happen."
The Nephilim snickered, before saying "I'm just the Tank; I'll keep his attention and try not to get chopped in half. All heals need ta be on me, while your team is responsible for actually killing this gigantic fucker. I can deal a decent amount of damage, but this bastard has way too many regeneration skills. Hell, his left arm was cut off by that Ogress, and now look at him, hehehe~. Just be careful of his AoE attacks… Don't stand in the fire!"
Sarah was completely exhausted, she was sitting down on the edge of the stone railing and planning on watching an entertaining show. Only about fifty Feline Dwarves had actually died, so there were a decent amount of other spectators who were gathering on the southern ramparts: The rest were watching from the various portholes along the wall.
After rebuffing himself, Michael also had a spell called 'Natural Protection' cast on him, which boosted his Endurance by five points and reduced his damage taken from Chaotic enemies by 20%. A Super-Elite Priestess of Fire used a spell called 'Aegis of Flame,' which could block up to a hundred points of Fire-damage: Although, she didn't have enough mana to keep it on him constantly.
He complained "This is why having a team is important… Sarah, when the fuck are you gonna learn something useful? Instead of dicking around with Necromancy, you should learn a bunch of spells first. A perfect team needs a shit ton of complimenting buffs!"
The Goblin-girl glared at him, "It's only been a few days; normally it takes years to do this shit! Besides that, we've been fucking non-stop since I got my Profession! After this, I'll learn a few new tricks and then we'll go hunting for a while… It really fucking pisses me off that I can't even hurt you anymore!"
Michael snickered, walked over to the angry woman, leaned down to her level and roughly pressed his mouth against hers. She bit down onto his lip as hard as she could, but wasn't able to cause any pain or deal any damage. The two of them were relatively 'clean,' since he could used 'Telekinesis' to remove dirt, grime, blood and guts from his skin and she had the skill 'Devouring Shadow.'
His sword was floating around behind the back of his head, and since he was using both 'Lightening' and 'Angelic Grace,' it appeared incredibly strange to any Feline Dwarves of the Darkness or Light Affinities. In fact, even the fact that the two radically different races were 'together' in that way, was considered a huge taboo.
Thus, most of the spectators were disgusted… Especially when the Nephilim slid his unarmored left hand underneath her ripped and torn tiger-fur skirt. While the two of them were 'enjoying themselves,' Captain Shiro and his Lieutenants were making their way down the wall and walking out the front gate; unlike Michael and Sarah, they couldn't fly or teleport, and jumping down would have been relatively dangerous.
However, when he tried to 'enter' his 'girl-frenemy,' a barrier stopped him and a notification popped-up: "Friendly-Fire has been averted."

Might wanna switch the first "wall" with the word "way" here: "his Lieutenants were making their wall down the wall"
mike777ac on September 19, 2015 at 9:20 pm said:
Sigh, I made so many mistakes this chapter…
a whopping two misstakes, wow right. (insert voice filled with sarcasm here)
"she she was sitting down on the edge of the stone railing"
Missing the word "to" here: "Michael 'Whispered' his partner"
Nah, this one is intentional; he isn't physically whispering, but using the telepathic communication. Thus, he 'Whispered' his partner.
Kinda like "Michael fucked his partner." well, I mean that it's the same sort of phrasing… not that telepathic communication is fucking lol
Ah, I see, thanks for telling me.

Yeah, why the hell would survive until level 10 if they were trying to tank shit like he does? lol

Now he will realize that he can only fuck in his home territory LOL
Well, he had all his gear on, and she barely has any, plus she's lower level lol. It'd be different if he was naked? lol
Riger on September 3, 2015 at 6:03 am said:
Maybe, maybe not. Isn't his strength stat quite a lot higher than hers? And until her 'you won't rip anymore' passive levels up, it's still damage, and companions can't damage each other except in certain situations.
Yeah, it kinda has to do with percentage of health too. Sarah's health is way lower than his, so even 1 point of damage would be considered friendly fire. On the other hand, he could probably receive 2 or 3 and not have it considered friendly fire?
How does that work with a bunch of attacks. Could she continuously deal a few points of damage?
It probably has to do with current health percentage rather than max health?

So if his wang's a weapon… Can he unequip it? And would it become a tattoo or float behind him? :p
No lol, it's part of his body
synthous on September 3, 2015 at 4:01 am said:
Well, if it'has enough of a damage rating to be blocked by friendly fire, it deserves a name, no?
His dick deserves a name?
If it can cause friendly fire, it needs a weapon description. Mike, what's the quality? Do tell us what the guys dick rating is 😐
Well, it's probably about 50 DAR

Lmfao, I was gonna say Arcane Destroyer…
That's got to be the strangest aircraft carrier in all of existence. You should make a space story next. A toss up between drones creating more drones and then naturally unable to say to, alien from an experiment.
You like robot girls? You like robot girls.

lol cock blocked by the system…i wonder is that was one of the goddesses being jealous.
and i really hate suggesting this but please give sarah some kinda of super stretchy pussy passive so he doesnt tear her a new one each time they fuck i mean come on. I wanna read a chapter where he fucks her stupid
Void on September 3, 2015 at 1:52 am said:
Pretty sure she already has, a passive like that. She got it a couple chapters back, I think its called flexibility.
pretty sure flexibly applies to joints
Void is right. I'm pretty sure it was talking about her skin and flesh being more flexible. I'm tired, so I don't feel like hunting for it. It should be within the last 10 chapters, though.
It was literally 4 chapters ago…. lol or 5
yay for people answering questions for me, even though I didn't read this first, so I answered anyway… fml lol.
Didn't she get that passive before the battle, cause they had sex too much and her body kept regenerating until she adapted to it lol

I have suffered chronic pain in the soles of my feet as well as other parts of my body for 13 years. I have had all of the tests you can think of but still no ease in pain. There was a newly qualified Dr at my surgery whom I saw last week did even more blood test only this time adding the vid D 3 test. The results came back suggesting I had Fibromalga ( not sure of spelling) and I was also vitamin deficient my count was only 25. I was prescribed a vit D3 capsule of 20000 to be taken 3 times a week. Now this is the unbelievable bit I awoke the very next morning and climbed out of bed ready for the usual pain and nothing not even a wince. It has now been 6 days and my life is so different I would be sceptical if anyone told me this story and even I thought ok I will take the vit D capsule to go along with everything my doctor asks of me...THIS IS A MIRACLE for me.
When I get out of a car I no longer need to stretch my tendons gently and limp badly for the first 10 mins and then be in great pain after a half hour of walking sooner some days. I must admit that by the end of Easter Sunday my feet and legs ached but nowhere near usual but then again I was entertaining at home for 10 people so was on my feet for 14 hrs. My advise to anyone is give them a try my friends and family can't believe the change in me.
If you are half as lucky or even a quarter as lucky as I have been with this supplement your life will change beyond your wildest expectations and believe me I have never in my life made a statement like this. I run my own busy company and in the last 5 years both of my Achilles tendons have snapped that is to give you an idea of how serious my problem was. Try it.
