Hey Friends!
I haven't done a personal blog update in a while and I'm feeling SUPER called to share some exciting news and also pretty personal shiz with you all so buckle up and hold onto your hats.
The past few months I've been in a bit of a fitness rut.
I've been deep diving into LIFE (traveling, starting a new job, taking a super rad course to uplevel my business and just my life in general) and while I was keeping up with my workouts, I wasn't feeling inspired like I usually do. I started to let my workouts fall by the way side occasionally and my nutrition too -- especially my nutrition.
If you've been following my story for a while , you know that my journey in health & fitness has been a bumpy one. But what I haven't talked much about is how it all started.
Did you play sports growing up?
I may be a creative, actor, and girlboss entrepreneur, but growing up I LOVED playing sports. I played soccer for 10 years of my life -- my dad was my coach! And all through high school, I played volleyball. And I loved every second of it.
I loved the teamwork. I loved the competition. I loved the activity.
And I loved the feeling of being a part of something bigger.
Of pushing my limits beyond what I imagined I was capable of.
Especially in volleyball. I will never forget the day my best friend tricked me into going to try outs. I had never played a day of volleyball in my LIFE and here I was trying to get a spot on the team? Nuh uh. But you know what? I made the team. Second string, but still. I freaking made it. And from that moment on, I was determined to RISE. I showed up to every 6 AM practice with bells on. I knew that all I had to do was work hard, show up and do my best. So I did that, and I got better. And before I knew it, I was sitting first string middle, playing my heart out at every game and proving to myself that I was so much more capable than I ever gave myself credit for.
I just got back from an amazing trip to Ireland (trip recap on the blog to come, I promise!), and I realized while I was there and reminiscing with my dad about my soccer and volleyball days how much I miss it. I miss the challenge. I miss the feeling of committing to something 100% and deciding to RISE.
And that's why I'm so excited to be a part of a super exciting test group for a new agility strength program this month. I got to preview it for the first time this week and holy balls I haven't been excited about a fitness program like this in a LONG TIME. And I'm SO excited to be rocking out this test group alongside of a badass group of women who are diving in head first to rock out this program with alongside of me (If you're looking to ditch the diet, find joy in fitness and feel SEXY AF this summer, come join us! You can get more info here.)
If you've been reading my blog for a while now, you know I'm all about ditching the diet train and making fitness fun, which is why I'm crazy excited about this program because it focuses on transforming yourself in every aspect -- ESPECIALLY internal shifts.
My favorite thing about being a coach isn't watching my clients have massive physical transformations that stick. Don't get me wrong, it's freaking AMAZING to watch the women I work with transform before my very eyes, but it's the internal shifts that they go through that really change their lives. And getting to offer that mental and emotional support to my gals is freaking EVERYTHING to me.
When you challenge yourself, you discover how strong and resilient you really are from the inside out. And I've found that once you start to focus on taking care of your physical health, all of the other areas of your life fall into place. Your mental health. Your relationships. You start to live more on purpose and filled with freaking JOY.
I'm friends with a few of the coaches in the Shift Shop test group and while their physical results are freaking insane, what inspired me the most was hearing about their mental and emotional transformations.
Rocking out a program like this is not easy, and having extra support and accountability is KEY to success. Which is why I'm excited to be hosting a Shift Shop Challenge with my entire coaching team later this month for anyone who wants to try the program with me!
I've been getting a bunch of questions on what this program is all about so here are some commonly asked questions I've gotten...
Q: I've been really out of the loop on a fitness plan for a long time. Is this program crazy advanced or beginner friendly?
A: It's great for all fitness levels. If you have a lot of weight to lose, this program will be your on-ramp to fitness. If you've spent some time away from your regular routine, it will lead you through a fitness tune-up. It's perfect for anyone who wants an easy commitment to jump-start their regimen.
Q: How long are the workouts?
A: In three short weeks (21 days) you progress from basic 25 minute workouts to advanced 45 minute routines - all while honing your nutrition for optimal results.
Q: What are the workouts like?
Here's an outline of how the 3 weeks will go down...
Speed: 25 (25 min) Jumpstart your cardio with 1-minute intervals designed to work your entire body and make you break a sweat.
Strength: 25 (25 min) Build a strong foundation with easy-to-learn 1-minute intervals of resistance movements designed to set you up for success.
Speed: 35 (35 min) Intensity increases as does the formations. This workout was designed to improve your agility, build your stamina and burn more calories.
Strength: 35 (35 min) By combining the foundational moves, the intensity ramps up creating new challenges as you continue to get stronger.
Speed: 45 (45 mins) Up the ante with new dynamic drills that continue to ramp-up your conditioning and get your ready for any challenge.
Strength: 45 (45 mins) The ultimate resistance workout created to challenge every muscle group to increase definition and get the very best out of you.
Shift Core (12 mins) Strengthen your core as you breathe through 9, 1-minute ab-shredding exercises.
Shift Mobility: 20 minutes of focused stretching to alleviate tightness and get you ready to continue the Shift.
Super Speed: 50 (50 mins) Adding in the Beachbody PT Sandbag, this workout brings you 3 rounds of calorie-scorching drills guaranteed to shift your endurance into high gear.
Super Strength: 50 (50 mins) Three rounds of resistance intervals designed to challenge your strength with the Beachbody PT Sandbag. This workout will challenge your body and your mind.
Super Shift Core: Take the Beachbody PT Sandbag to the mat for 9 intense 1-minute core-focused exercises.
Agility Markers and Weights For Base Kit Workouts. Sandbag and/or weights for Deluxe Workouts.
Q: Is there a nutrition component to this program?
A: Hells yes!!! And guess what? NOT a diet. Just a banging lifestyle plan that is all about using food as FUEL.
The nutrition plan uses the portion containers from the 21 Day Fix and Portion Fix, which I love because they give me just the right balance between intuitive eating and structure. Every single meal is planned out so there's no guesswork - you just pick the foods that you want to eat that fall into the containers.
And ALL FOOD GROUPS ARE A PART OF THE PLAN. Yup. Halle-freaking-lujah.
That being said, every week the nutrition plan shifts, which is arguably what I'm most excited about. I know firsthand how much our nutrition choices can shift SO much of how we feel and I can't wait to mix things up a bit.
So, how is it different? Just like the workouts, each week your portions change. You gradually decrease your carbs and increase your protein and healthy fat, so your body starts to burn fat as fuel.
I know this is going to be a challenge because I know I'm going to have to break my snacking and emotional eating tendencies, but at the same time, I know this is going to give me so much freaking clarity.
Ready to make the Shift?
If you're interested in entering the Shift Shop with me, I'm hosting an accountability group with my coaching team and we're all going to do the program together!
We'll have a daily check-in to make sure we stay on track, and it will be a safe, positive space to share our journeys.
These accountability groups are MAGIC and make the biggest difference when it comes to actually following through on your goals and making lasting change happen.
Questions? I'm always just an email away and would love to hear from you!!! Let's rock this summer out :)

The goal of any Customer Relationship Management (CRM) initiative is measurable success against key performance indicators, including return on investment (ROI). Our free white paper, "CRM Adoption: An Organizational Change Management Framework," is organized to help adoption planning teams and company executives manage a successful change management framework and implementation.
A successful CRM investment brings about more leads, higher lead-to-revenue conversion rates, identification of up-sell and cross-sell opportunities, improved customer service, all of which lead to increased client retention rates, growing revenue and your other benchmarks of achievement. To realize measurable returns on a CRM in initiative, your user community must first fully embrace the new system. Successful, widespread user adoption is fundamental to your program's success.
At the core of every user adoption program is the effort to manage the change in user and team patterns and behaviors. To do this, you must first understand the stages of change. To lead teams and users through to the highest levels of CRM effectiveness, you need a well-designed, executed and managed organizational change plan.
A successful change management framework will include:
- Definition of CRM effectiveness by phase
- Adoption plan design
- Assessments of individual and team "Stage of Change"
- Monitoring adoption progress
- Adoption plan execution managed by an adoption planning team, with oversight provided by an executive steering committee
However, your work isn't done once you reach your CRM adoption plan objectives. After implementation, you must continually monitor, measure and manage company-wide adoption levels in order to maintain the highest level of program effectiveness.
To get your free copy of our CRM Adoption White Paper, click here. If you'd like a copy of our associated PowerPoint presentation you can request it here.
Obviously, this white paper is a high-level overview intended to give you, your executives and project managers the elements necessary to create a solid CRM adoption plan. Should you require further assistance, please contact our office.

Related article: 6 Smart Foods For A Healthier Brain
Aging is a natural process that all of us go through. Some people experience what they call as "graceful aging" but in most cases, old age robs people of quality life that we are all entitled for. But how we will turn out during late adulthood depends largely on how we take care of ourselves while we're still young and full of vigor. The value that we give on our health will transcend even during the late stages of our lives when degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's start to show no mercy.
According to National Institute on Aging, Alzheimer's Disease (AD) usually starts at the age of 60 and affects our different mental processes such as memory and communication skills. There is no cure for Alzheimer's Disease but National Institutes of Health has revealed some of the most effective ways to decrease one's risk of developing mental deterioration later in life. Here are the five pillars for a healthier and more active brain:
If you genuinely desire to decrease your Alzheimer's risk, then this is not the perfect time to rest all day and become a certified couch potato. This is because according to Alzheimer's Research & Prevention Foundation, physical exercise reduces your risk of developing Alzheimer's disease by 50 percent. There are a total of 18 scientific studies which can back up this claim and the logic for this discovery is quite easy to figure out: the more exercise you do, the more blood will flow towards your brain to nourish it and improve your mental functions. At least 30 minutes of combined weight training and aerobic exercise for five times a week is recommended to achieve that goal.
Weight Control and Healthy Diet
Weight and diet are two interconnected factors that can significantly affect one's chances of having AD later in life. Through healthy diet, one can reduce weight and decrease Alzheimer's risk at the same time. According to research studies, older adults who are obese have less brain volume that those people whose BMI falls within acceptable range. In addition to that, a scientific study reported in Reuters revealed a strong connection between the abdominal size of a person during his forties and his mental health come the age of 70 and up. Here's an excerpt of their study:
A total of 1,049 of them — nearly 16 percent — went on to develop Alzheimer's disease or some other form of dementia by the time they reached their 70s. Those in the upper 20 percent in terms of belly size in middle age were almost three times more likely to develop dementia than those in the bottom 20 percent of belly size, the researchers found.
Now, aside from exercise, it is also possible to maintain a normal weight through healthy diet regimen like what they have in the countries that surround a famous European sea. Yes, I'm talking about Mediterranean diet or the famous diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, olive oil, whole grains and nuts. What is impressive about this diet is the fact that it doesn't just focus on healthy eating alone as it also encourages people to lead an active lifestyle through regular exercises, the reason why Mediterranean diet continues to be the top choice for the elderly. According to the August 12, 2009 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Mediterranean has been proven to decrease one's risk of having Alzheimer's and other diseases that deteriorates mental abilities.
Brain stimulation through creative activities
Just like our bones that get weaker and more fragile with less body movements, our brain also loses its natural sharpness if we don't take time to stimulate it every once in a while. We have to remember that stimulating activities are like exercises which can make our brain functions sharper and stronger as time goes by. For this reason, finding various activities that will make us think and use our own cognitive functions more is just one way of decreasing our own Alzheimer's risk. Finding new skills to master like learning how to play a musical instrument or speak a different language can boost our mental agility regardless of our age. Involving ourselves in challenging games like puzzles, crosswords, scrabble and other 'mind' games can also help to stimulate our thinking processes.
Establish healthy sleeping habits
Chronic sleep deprivation can take its toll not just on our cardiovascular and digestive systems but on our mental health as well. We all need sufficient rest to rejuvenate and let our mind be free from external stressors so once we fail to get the required 8 hours of sleep, it will be more difficult to process any information or retain it to our memory. Focusing on a particular work detail will be more taxing for a sleep-deprived employee, a phenomenon that can affect the general productivity of any company. One's risk of having Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive disorders is also increased due to lack f sleep so everyone must not forget the value of a good night rest in improving our mental skills.
No man is an island and the more we isolate ourselves from quality social connections, the more risks we have of having mental deterioration later in life. Studies have suggested about the crucial role of social connections in improving our memory and thought processes but lack of time or busy schedules of modern-day citizens continue to be the major stumbling blocks in achieving strong social ties. Regardless if you're young or old, social life must be taken as a priority to maintain a healthy brain. The advent of social media like Facebook has made social connection quite easier to achieve but it's really not enough to boost our mental health. Involving ourselves in a worthy social cause, joining in social groups for therapy or to learn new skills and becoming involved in several missions as "volunteer" are just some of the proven ways to develop and maintain social bonds with other people in the community.
The five tips mentioned in this article are just some of the best ways to decrease our Alzheimer's risk but there are more ways than one to live a healthier life. Degenerative diseases like AD are not curable and usually worsen with age but with the right preventive techniques, achieving a healthier life free from mental dysfunctions will not be impossible anymore.

Bush Never Said "Stay the Course"
Is there anyone left stupid enough to believe ANYTHING this fucker says????
Bush: 'We've Never Been Stay The Course'
During an interview today on ABC's This Week, President Bush tried to distance himself from what has been his core strategy in Iraq for the last three years. George Stephanopoulos asked about James Baker's plan to develop a strategy for Iraq that is "between 'stay the course' and 'cut and run.'"
Bush responded, 'We've never been stay the course."
Bush is wrong:
BUSH: We will stay the course. [8/30/06]
BUSH: We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq. [8/4/05]
BUSH: We will stay the course until the job is done, Steve. And the temptation is to try to get the President or somebody to put a timetable on the definition of getting the job done. We're just going to stay the course. [12/15/03]
BUSH: And my message today to those in Iraq is: We'll stay the course. [4/13/04]
BUSH: And that's why we're going to stay the course in Iraq. And that's why when we say something in Iraq, we're going to do it. [4/16/04]
BUSH: And so we've got tough action in Iraq. But we will stay the course. [4/5/04]

Pi Lambda Phi Hosts 'Burn Away'
September 16, 201793 Views
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Many students burned away their anxieties and fears on a warm and foggy night at Pi Lambda Phi's event Burn Away on Miller Lawn on Thursday.
The night started at 9 pm with a huge bonfire and S'mores for students to enjoy and socialize.
After thirty minutes of socializing, the fraternity members handed out pieces of paper for students to write down something they would like to 'burn away' and forget about for the rest of the semester.
"Sometimes you just have to let it go. Some students that are super caught up in the political climate and it really affects them, this gives them a chance to write it down and get rid of them," said Gjek Vukelj, the President of Pi Lambda Phi.
The close-knit circle of people surrounding the bonfire created a calming environment for students to comfortably and openly talk about their fears and anxieties about the upcoming semester and the real world.
"I'm going to physically burn away a lot of the stress that I've been dealing with, coming into my fifth year here at Pace. Metaphorically, I would like to burn away the fact that the real world is coming in," said Kirk Pineda, a student at Pace.
Some students chose to get rid of old prejudices and stereotypes that have haunted them since middle school and high school.
"People always bullied me and called me an Oreo because I was too white to be black and too black to be white. I was always in this middle ground where I didn't really fit in," said Joshua Francois, a sophomore at Pace.
For other students, participating in the bonfire helped relieve stress, rather than the physical act of burning the paper.
"Being able to just sit back, relax, roast marshmallows, and watch things burn, with my friends and brothers, makes me feel a little bit better," said Jeremy Langdale, a member of Pi Lambda Phi.
This event was created to support the fraternity's philanthropy of the elimination of prejudice by bringing people together and to get the conversations of what those are to each individual started.
"That moment when you write down that prejudice, crumple it up, and throw it into the fire feels good. If we can make other students feel good, for even ten seconds, then we are doing our job," said Vukelj.
During the last ten minutes of the event, students were asked to create a circle around the bonfire with the pieces of paper in hand by Vukelj and were instructed to throw the pieces of paper in to the fire together.
Students stared in awe and clapped for others who went to throw their piece of paper in to the fire as the fire weakened.

How to Upload Custom Fonts to Squarespace
Let's be real, Squarespace has a huge selection of awesome free fonts available for you to use on you website, and we love them for that.
But do they have that gorgeous font you downloaded from CreativeMarket and used throughout all your branding and social media graphics? Chances are, nope!
So, that leaves us with three options...
Don't use your brand font on your website, go with something similar, how important is branding consistency anyway?
Create images of words in your font every time you want to use it anywhere, it shouldn't be too annoying to update later on, right?
Upload your font directly to your Squarespace site and set it to be your H1, H2, H3 or paragraph text and use it easily and whenever you like.
I think we all realize there's a pretty clear winner here, so, let's get to it!
A couple of disclaimers before we start:
This tutorial involves a little bit of coding. Don't freak! It's basically just a copy and paste method, and it's super easy.
You need to make sure you have the correct licensing on your font so that you are legally able to use it on your website. If you can't find the details, just go ahead and email the font creator and ask if you have the correct licence. If you've purchased a font from CreativeMarket you'll be able to see if it's licensed for web use on the product page, otherwise, just flick the seller a message and ask! Better to be safe than sorry (aka, fined!)
Step one
Preparing your font files for web use
Not as scary as it sounds, promise.
Your font should either come in a .TTF or .OTF format. If it has, that's great! That's almost all that you need.
But, if you want to be super prepared and smart about it, there's a couple of other file types that would be good to. This just makes sure that your font is compatible over a range of different browsers (basically all of those peeps still using Internet Explorer, yes, it still exists guys...)
Ideally we need 3 versions of our font: .TTF or .OTF and a .WOFF and .WOFF2
Are you still with me? I swear this step is almost over.
Lucky for us our friends over at FontSquirrel have made this almost impossible to screw up. Click here to the Webfont Generator and upload either your .TTF or .OTF and it will create a .WOFF and a WOFF2 for you! Easy as that.
Step Two
Uploading your font
Head over to the backend of your Squarespace site and click Design > Custom CSS then scroll right to the bottom and click Manage Custom Files
You'll see a button that says Add Images or Fonts. You guessed it, upload your three font files!
Step Three
Adding your font in the css
Ok, you've uploaded the fonts to the backend...
Now we just need to add a bit of code in the Custom CSS box to be able to use them.
First, copy and paste this code into the Custom CSS box:
@font-face {
font-family: 'font-name';
src: url(fontURL.ttf/.otf), url(fontURL.woff), url(fontURL.woff2);
Change font-name to the name of your font. For example I would change mine to Rokkitt.
To change the fontURL's you'll need to click on Manage Custom Files again, and then click on one of your font files. As soon as you click on the file you will see a URL automatically pasted within the Custom CSS box. Paste this complete URL into the corresponding area in the code, between the brackets.
Your code should look something like this:
Hit Save in the top left hand corner, because you've just successfully added your new font!
Step Four
Adding it as a Heading font
So you have your new font loaded into your site, but how do you actually use it? Add it as an H1, H2, H3 or a P (paragraph/body font).
It's easy, just paste this code into the Custom CSS box:
h1 {
font-family: 'font-name';
Just change font-name to the name of your font. You can also change the h1 to h2, h3 or P. It's seriously that simple!
If you don't want to add it as a main heading font, but you still want to use it throughout your site, the easiest thing to do is replace the H1 tag with an H4 tag. Squarespace doesn't automatically have an H4 option, so this means you are actually creating a whole new header option.
If you want to use a H4 tag, you will have to use it within a Code Block (not just a reguar Text Block) but don't worry, it's super easy.
Add your Code Block wherever you want to use your new font. Then add H4 tags around whatever your text is, eg:
This text will be in my new font
Woohoo! You did it! You've officially added your own custom font to you Squarespace site, no need for Typekit or fancy extras, just a little bit of easy coding. Now off you go, type away!

Findlay, OH (13abc Action New) - The Ohio State Highway Patrol is reminding drivers to keep their eyes on the roadways while driving, as part of an effort to stop distracted driving.
The Findlay District is beginning a new campaign involving education and enforcement to address what troopers say has become a growing problem in Northwest Ohio.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol reported 17,827 crashes in 2014 were a result of a distracted driver.
This year, nearly half of all accidents are caused due to drivers not paying attention.
Troopers say they will be on the look out for any non-driving activity, such as texting and driving, that causes a person to take their hands off the wheel or look away from the road.
The distracted driving campaign runs until the end of the month.

This email just came in from David Broodryk on what you should call yourselves if your group wants to see a disciple making movement.
There are several critical mistakes that we have seen in this process. One of them begins with seeing the initial team as a "Missional Learning Community." The name will define the function. Unfortunately, in almost every case, "missional" has no real definition and ends up meaning nothing. "Learning" immediately places Western thinkers into perpetual learning mode with no application. And "community" is the strongest. It will define the group. Every time we used this in the name, it caused the group to settle into a quasi-church that focused on one another and not on the lost!
The first thing I would encourage a church to do is to think carefully about the name of the initial team. Although you will have many communities when you get to movement, you do not launch a movement from a "community." You launch a movement from a "team." The biblical principle here for me is Jesus calling his first team. Although it had many functions of church, its primary function was as a travelling apostolic band. This is made clear from the very first call to "make fishers of men" as the purpose for joining.
We need to be clear with churches. They always default to the pastoral model of creating church, cell or "community." But it requires a very intentional step towards a high-functioning TEAM in order to get to movement.
Just a few rambling random thoughts . . .
Westerners have been discussing, contextualising and redefining the mission of the church for a century. In that time we've gone from "missionaries" to "missions" to "mission" to "missional" without much improvement in how we make disciples.
We're lost in a missional fog. Everyone uses the term, few know what it looks like on Monday morning. It's the reason why the "emerging church" was so bad at evangelism.
So if you want to see a disciple making movement, be careful what you call yourself.

Arvidsson lifts Predators to 3-2 win over Red Wings
DETROIT (AP) — Viktor Arvidsson is playing some of his best hockey of the season and helping the Nashville Predators get some big wins.
Arvidsson scored his third goal in two games and the Predators ended their seven-game losing skid against Detroit with a 3-2 victory over the Red Wings on Tuesday.
Scott Hartnell and Kyle Turris also scored, and Juuse Saros stopped 34 shots for the Predators, who improved to 7-2-2 in their last nine games. Nashville also ended a three-game losing streak in Detroit since a win on Nov. 19, 2013.
Arvidsson, who scored twice in the Predators' 5-2 win over Ottawa on Monday, now has eight goals and five assists in the last 14 games.
"The last two games, I think our line has been a lot better and we're playing with a lot of confidence," Nashville's Ryan Johansen said. "Arvie has been a huge factor in that, because he's been making plays all over the ice lately."
Arvidsson's goal at 4:50 of the third period pushed the Predators' lead to 3-1. The puck skipped over the stick of Red Wings defenseman Jonathan Ericsson, allowing Arvidsson to get in alone and snap a shot by Howard on the stick side.
Andreas Athanasiou and Tomas Tatar scored for the Red Wings, and Jimmy Howard finished with 26 saves.
The Predators grabbed the lead just 4:18 into the opening period. Roman Josi's wrist shot from the point deflected off the right skate of Nashville forward Hartnell before settling into the net behind Howard.
It was 2-0 Predators at 9:35 of the first. Josi's wrist shot squeezed through the legs of Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall and landed right in front of Nashville center Kyle Turris, who tucked the puck past Howard. It was the first goal by Turris since Jan. 30, ending a nine-game drought.
"We got off to a good start, but the second period wasn't good at all," Arvidsson said. "The third period was a lot better, but we still made too many bad decisions."
The Red Wings got on the board at 10:12 of the second as Athanasiou slipped behind the Nashville defense, took a pass from Dylan Larkin and beat Saros with a stick-side deke move. It was Athanasiou's first goal in 12 games.
"I think we needed something to kind of get the momentum going, so it was definitely good to help out," Athanasiou said.
After Arvidsson restored Nashville's two-goal lead, Detroit pulled back within one at 7:54 of the third. From a goalmouth scramble, Tatar jammed a loose puck past Saros.
"I thought the second half we took it to them," Detroit forward Justin Abdelkader said. "I felt from the drop of the puck we weren't winning battles. I thought in the second and third period we were better.
"It's tough to spot a team like that two goals. You've got to fight and scratch and claw to get back. We did. We had a lot of chances as the game went. It's tough to finally lose it."
NOTES: The Red Wings recalled G Jared Coreau from AHL Grand Rapids to replace G Petr Mrazek, traded Monday to Philadelphia. ... Red Wings D Mike Green missed his third straight game due to an upper-body injury. ... The Predators are 5-1-1 in the second game of back to backs this season.
Predators: Host San Jose on Thursday night.
Red Wings: Host Buffalo on Thursday night.

The tree-structure decreasesthe complexity, considerably, compared to the ordinary single-stage interpolator structure.The computational complexity is comparable to a multi-stage Nyquist interpolator structure,but the proposed tree-structure has slightly higher delay. The tree-structure should still beconsidered since it can interpolate with an arbitrary number and all subfilters operate at thebase rate which is not the case for multi-stage Nyquist interpolators.

A possible ankylosaurian (Thyreophora) trackway from the Lower Cretaceous Jiaguan Formation of Emei, southwest China: paleoecological implications.
September 30, 2016:
Ankylosaurian trackways are rare in the Cretaceous red beds of China, and in Asia, in general. Here we report on a possible thyreophoran (ankylosaurian) trackway from the Jiaguan Formation of Sichuan Province, China inferred from an important historical (1970s) report, the first dealing with tracks from this formation. The Jiaguan Formation has recently become well known for an abundance of saurischian-dominated tracksites, indicating that the 1970s report is anomalous. Nevertheless, the record describes a trackway, which represents a large animal with a wide pes up to ~41 cm and a transverse morphology (length/width ~0.8). The trackway is unusual because of the lack of visible manus tracks, perhaps due to preservational factors. The rarity of such trackway morphotypes in China is attributed to the facies preference of Cretaceous ankylosaurians for organic-rich coastal plain substrates,which abound in North America where ankylosaur dominated ichnofacies have been defined.

KULARTS-SF Convenes Third Annual DIALOGUE IN THE DIASPORA During LGBTQ Month with Program Featuring Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Artists
Written by Paul Barrera
On the third weekend of June, from the 15th through the 17th, KULARTS SF will host its 3rd annual edition of "Dialogue in the Diaspora," a three-day convening of diasporic Filipino artists and culture bearers to discuss and engage the ongoing development of Philippine arts across the globe. Still the only event of its kind, the gathering centers on the thought and output of Filipino art makers and arts organizations who originate from outside of The Philippines — a crucial space for exploring the cultural development of the various communities that make up the Filipino diaspora.
"We're so proud to highlight the innovative work that the folks in our community are producing. In many cases, these artists/cultural/community workers are pushing into institutions — education, museums, theaters — that haven't seen the tenacity of Filipino-Americans, and the work of breaking into institutions takes a lot of emotional and physical labor. Dialogue in the Diaspora is a space to convene and congratulate each others' hard work," said Kimberley Arteche, Program Manager of KULARTS SF.
In this way, community development and progress are the primary goals of Dialogue in the Diaspora. Certainly, the three-day program's diverse offerings — a performance on Friday, expert-led dialogues on Saturday, a special Kamayan dinner theatre experience on Saturday evening, and workshops all day Sunday — present attendees a variety of learning opportunities. However, the organizers stress the significance of the programming as directed at a larger goal of continuing ongoing conversations, approaching new ideas, and even proposing solutions.
"To me, each year is a place-marker of where we're at in terms of moving forward. And to also get into the harder discussions around the ethics of telling family stories, or stories that may be exploitive, and to tackle the broader discussions around cultural appropriation, and the ways to respect our communities — whether we're inside or outside of them," Arteche said.
At this year's event, one of the most critical conversations will focus on the work of trans and gender non-conforming artists — exploring how the significance of their work within the context of the Filipino community, while also appreciating the larger cultural spaces to which their work responds. Several of the program's events, including Saturday night's Kamayan Kabaret, will feature trans and gender non-conforming artists and their work — including Brian Batugo performing drag; Earl Paus, who performs regularly with a troupe in honor of the Cockettes; Kreatibo, a queer Pinxy theater/performance group; Jae Tioseco, performing the traditionally heteronormative Maria Clara dance; Kinbaku Love, a Japanese rope bondage performance duo; and music by Josh Icban and Aimee Amparo.
"We wanted to showcase trans and gender non-conforming artists within our own community, because often, our community's trans/drag/queer performers more often perform outside of Filipino spaces due to the difficult and harmful realities of homophobia and Catholicism in Filipino culture. Engaging in dialogue with the panel and with these artists' performances does a few very important things. It reminds us the ways we need to be responsive to the trans and gender non-conforming community; it reminds them that yes, the Filipino community does have their back; and most importantly, it normalizes their narratives, and the really groundbreaking work that they do," Arteche said.
Ahead of Saturday night's festivities is the opening night ceremony, which features writer Melissa Sipin and artist Rosalie Zerrudo — women artists whose work tells difficult and painful stories that might otherwise not be heard. Understanding how these artists are able to engage such heavy subjects with a tender yet determined approach is a key facet of the discussions that will happen at Dialogue in the Diaspora.
"Opening night is a benefit for the Inday Dolls project, Rosalie Zerrudo's collaboration with the Iloilo City District Jail. All of the proceeds from the event, and the sale of the dolls go towards all of the women inmate artists who are participating in the project. The performance Rosalie will be doing is inspired by the real-life stories of the women in the Iloilo jail. And Melissa Sipin is an incredibly beautiful writer. She has been able to very vulnerably tell the traumatic and difficult stories from her family. We'll also be doing a talkback with Melissa on the ethics of telling these stories that can be sometimes viewed as exploitive. We'll be looking at her process, and what she chooses to do with language to craft what she wants to say. It's also a bit of framework for Rosalie's project with the women in Iloilo, that can be a tricky line of doing community responsive work when the stories can be sensationalized? How do we tell the stories authentically, and in a way that doesn't exploit the human beings behind them?"
"We're always looking to see who is doing really good work in the community - and also, who is good at speaking about their work. The biggest theme of this year was, of course, normalizing our Trans/GnC/Queer artists, so making sure that we not only engage them with our highlight panel discussion, but also make sure they are represented within all of the other panels as well. We're always looking at what needs to be discussed. One of the topics that we always want to open up is about cultural appropriation, but it is a difficult one to have without making folks defensive or combative. We didn't have a panel directed at that this year, but hope to always keep that in mind, because it has turned into such a vague and broad subject that we may all have different understandings of. And of course, how to work and move through institutions is always going to be an important topic for our community," Arteche said.
Paul Barrera is a Bay Area native, writer, and community organizer based in Oakland & San Francisco.

Investing in a new website is be a pretty big undertaking for most small and medium businesses. Often it means shelling out a significant chunk of your annual marketing budget in exchange for marketing material that you'll use every single day for the next few years.
Whatever web design agency you choose to work with had better know what they're doing and have the work samples to prove it. And while you should trust the professionals to do their job well, it's still important to vet them properly so that you end up with a design team that understands your vision and can deliver on it at a price that works for you.
So how do you go about hiring a web design agency, anyway? Let these 10 questions guide you on your quest.
One of the first things to do when considering a web design agency is to look at samples of their work. You want to find someone whose past projects have the same vibe that you're going for with your new website.
Yes, you should think the other websites look nice — and don't work with a designer if you don't think their work is good. But you should also connect with it on an emotional level. When you look at their other projects, the little voice in your head should say, "Ooh, yes! THAT one!!!"
If you're not excited by the other websites an agency has designed, chances are you won't be excited by what they come up with for your brand. And if you're not excited or moved by your own website, how can you expect your potential customers to get excited about your company? (You can read more about what customers want to see on your website in our previous blog.)
Your website needs to be able to perform, and whatever design agency you work with should be able to show results. Websites from top agencies should load faster, rank higher, and present a more cohesive brand image than other sites. If an agency you're considering can't show those kinds of results, it's a pretty good sign you should keep looking.
Want to know exactly how the sites we've designed are doing? Check out some of our work.
There's a pretty big divide in the web design world between designers who use templates and those who start from scratch on each project. We've seen our fair share of each, and while you can end up with a decent website through either method, we prefer designing from scratch and coding by hand each time. Here's why …
Imagine that you just shelled out $7,000-$12,000 for a major piece of custom digital real estate. The website looks beautiful, and you're thrilled to show it off … until you realize that it looks eerily similar to about 15 other websites that same agency built.
If we had to guess, we'd say you probably would feel a bit cheated. At the very least, you probably wouldn't be thrilled.
Starting from scratch with each new website we build lets us adapt our designs to your specific needs while giving you a look that's all your own. And in our eyes, there's really nothing better than a site that's 100% your own.
Good design isn't arbitrary, and a good agency knows that. Any designer you work with should be able to back up their choices and clearly explain why it's the right decision. If they can't, they may be trying to stretch the scope of your project in order to charge you more. Approach these agencies with the utmost caution, and be very careful when negotiating with them.
We've explained some of our most frequent design decisions in our recent blog, "15+ Stats You Should Know When Redesigning Your Website."
Websites that aren't mobile-responsive are a rip-off, plain and simple. More than half of all website visits come from smartphones now, and that's expected to increase dramatically in coming years.
So while you still need a standard desktop version of your site, a mobile version should be your priority … and any web design agency that tells you otherwise isn't worth your money.
Testing may be the most important part of building a website because it highlights gaps in functionality and user-friendliness. Nobody wants to pay for a site that breaks the first time someone clicks away from the homepage or that only looks right on one specific browser.
Not testing a site before launching is like not tasting a soup before you serve it — there's simply no way to tell if you're delivering something that's high quality. And if an agency doesn't test for quality, you've got to wonder: Where else are they cutting corners?
A web design agency that's good at what they do will test every function of your website multiple times on at least the 4 main browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge/Internet Explorer). They'll test both the desktop and mobile versions from Apple, Windows, and Google devices.
Websites need images and logos to engage your visitors and give them a feel for your company. If you're building a website for the first time, those images have to come from somewhere, and if you're redesigning your current site, you may need to revamp your brand's entire aesthetic to bring it up to date.
While this one isn't make or break, it's certainly easier on you if the web design agency you choose to work with can also help out on a logo design or sourcing some of the imagery. We've been known to help our clients out with a new logo here and there, and we even helped Foot & Ankle Center find a photographer to take photos for their site redesign.
You may not know this, but some web design agencies retain ownership of the sites they build. This makes it hard for you to make changes as needed down the road, and can even allow them to repurpose your design and content for other clients.
Look for an agency that gives you full ownership and copyright of any marketing asses they create for you, like websites, logos, mobile apps, etc. It's common practice to allow them to use your website (or other materials) in their portfolio and distribute it to their social media channels and email lists. But uses, like copying your site for a competitor, should be strictly forbidden.
This is a question you should be very clear on before signing an agreement to work with a web design agency. Websites can already sometimes be pricey projects, so it's important to be crystal clear on what you're signing up for.
Does the price they quote you include a mobile version of the site? Will it include an special features, like scheduling capabilities, a members-only area, or an app? How will they bill for extra work that wasn't in the original project scope? How many rounds of revisions will they provide? How much will you need to pay upfront, and will there be any payment milestones throughout the build?
While the answers to these questions are really up to each specific agency, be sure that the answers they provide fit within your expectations and what you're comfortable with paying.
You've made it through the interview process and found an agency you're really excited to work with. All that's left is to sign the paperwork and let them do their magic, right?
Not necessarily. Most agencies still need information from you about your website, like access to your Google Analytics. They'll likely also need assets from you like bios, brand logos, fonts, colors, and proprietary imagery. On top of that, we like to schedule a call with our clients to discuss the project schedule and fill out a visual style assessment to get a feel for their design preferences.
Asking this question also shows the agency you're eager to cooperate in getting the project started, ultimately plays a big role in how smoothly your website redesign goes.
Want to know what happens after your new website launches? Check out our previous blog, "5 Important Steps to Take After Launching Your Newly Redesigned Website."
Here at Trajectory Web Design, we believe wholeheartedly that your website should be both beautiful and functional. If yours is lacking in either department, we're here to help. Fill out the form on the Contact page to get started … and don't forget to ask us any questions you have.

I admit that I dream of being able to work from home as a writer. It's what I love to do more than just about anything, and I've loved spending more time focusing on it over the past year. And the dream that goes hand-in-hand with my dream of being a full time writer, is having a beautiful, inspiring, mine-all-mine home office that I can work out of. I'm not usually big on bright colors in my home, I love my neutrals. But when it comes to a room where I could sit and write for hours, I definitely want a room that is bright and inspiring. Right now, I'm loving these spaces that use bright whites with a little, and sometimes a lot, of color.
We'll continue to see what God has in store for me down the road, that's the exciting part, but it would not hurt my feelings to have a room all my own to wordsmith my little heart out.
Happy Sunday to everyone!

By: Aliker David Martin
Saturday November 12th, 2016 Kenneth Akena Watmon, 33, a Kasese Child Protection Specialist, was shot in the stomach and died at Norvik Hospital on Sunday morning.
Next week will mark two years since Akena died and a number of memorial activities like a Pool Tournament, Public Lecture and Prayers have been organized in his memory under the organization Akena Foundation.
For those who lost a loved one and those who lived through it, such a day will forever be ingrained in their memories.
An online poster was sent out inviting the community for the car wash to fundraise to support the activities of Akena Foundation.
A good friend then argued that, "In my opinion, I think friends should allow Akena's family to forget about the painful death of their son. This kind of Memorial event will keep on reminding the old parents and the wounds in their hearts may not heal." My friend's opinion seems unwise but raises fundamental questions on the transition while morning.
Mourning marks a dramatic transition beginning with the trauma of loss and concluding with acceptance of, control over, and separation from a loss (Volkan, 1981; Volkan & Zitl, 1993).
A person can separate from a loss by internalizing the loss to memory and remembering positive aspects of the loss (e.g., fond memories of a dead parent, feelings of self-reliance).
To do this, the person openly admits the loss by repeatedly disclosing his or her thoughts to trusted individuals (Janet, 1925; Lifton, 1973)
Through their designs, memorials represent and commemorate losses (Wolschke-Bulmahn, 2001). In doing so, memorials can help individuals make sense of and recover from losses (Rowlands, 1999).
Being that memorials are public activity, they help entire communities mourn a loss by providing settings for communal ceremonies and rituals (Wasserman, 1998).
So how does memorials facilitate a healing processes?
While memorials may in itself rekindle hatred and anger, more often than not memorials support the healing process in the following ways:
An essential part of healing rests on the ability to tell one's story to have someone listen and acknowledge pain and suffering.
Stories help people make sense of their experience. Stories can provide a release of emotions and help one connect to others when learning to live with loss.
Studies show that if one is surrounded, for example, by people who refuse to acknowledge some one's loss, it will be a more traumatic experience than being in a culture that recognizes the loss.
Providing Public Bonds. Research shows that many people develop continuing bonds with individuals who have died.
Often people want to keep a deceased loved one's memory in their lives. Remembrance events can present opportunities and rituals to help in sustaining those connections.
A person establishes private bonds with the deceased, through internal conversations, private rituals, or holding on to symbolic objects.
Documenting history through Stories. Storytelling does not just benefit victims' families. Individual stories can help the victim's community to understand and come to terms with the magnitude of such tragedy to a family or its community. For instance, Articles in the popular press and photograph books claim war memorials like the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (VVM) in Washington, D.C., are highly therapeutic for veterans (Grunwald, 1992; Meyer, 1993)
Inspiring healing movements. Stories can also help inspire healing movements for other tragedies. For instance, as a healing process, Akena's family has establish The Akena Foundation to keep his memory alive.
This simple gesture could inspire others dealing with the loss of a loved one to establish any other healing movements in the community of those dealing with the loss of their loved one.
In conclusion, "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. ― Richard Puz, The Carolinian. From an Irish headstone. "It's high time, all bereaved are allowed to mourn as they seek justice with love. The pain of death should not make us lose our loving nature because this is who we are.

A giant puma-like cat was feared to be on the loose in one of London's leafiest suburbs on Tuesday after a man said he had been pounced on by a creature, which then stood hissing on his chest.
Anthony-John Holder, who escaped with scratches and bruising after the incident in his garden in Sydenham Park, a suburb in the southeast of London, said he feared the animal could kill someone.
Holder, 37, had ventured to the bottom of his garden late on Monday after hearing his own pet cat howling.
"All of a sudden I see this big black thing pouncing at me, knocked me flying. I was just stunned with it all," he told the London-based radio station LBC.
"I just didn't know where I was, and the next thing there was this big black figure laying on my chest," he said. "It was growling, growling at me and hissing and it then started scratching."
Holder said he had used "brute force" to push the animal, described as being roughly the size of a Labrador dog, away from him.
"This thing knew what it wanted. If I was weak ... I think it could have killed me and then it could have gone on to hurt my family and everything else. I do think it would have done damage to someone," he said.
Police, who were called by the terrified Holder, said they were seeking advice from London Zoo and the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which deals with stray animals in Britain.
"We are advising the local public if they see the animal, do not approach it and to report it to police using [emergency number] 999 and to keep pets indoors," a spokesman said.
In recent years, sightings of giant cats have been reported throughout Britain, but although livestock have supposedly been attacked a number of times, there have been virtually no instances of encounters with humans.
Initially dismissed by scientists as unlikely, evidence from pawprints and droppings has led many to conclude that a number of big cats, perhaps released into the wild from private zoos, are roaming the country.
The notion of a puma living in London is also not as far-fetched as it might seem.
Despite its size and population, London has far more green spaces than most similar-sized cities, both in hundreds of public parks and squares and through the gardens of terraced homes, which form the bulk of its housing stock.
Around 15,000 foxes are believed to live in the capital, as well as a large number of squirrels and other creatures.

The Andersonstown News this week is full of victory for the Sinn Fein camp, and while their is honour in them holding true to their ideals, one has to wonder where the electorate features in all of this. This isn't about being the biggest party, nor is it about getting Martin McGuinness into the first minister position, this is about how to serve the electorate. No where in any write up in the Andersonstown news do I see the word 'cuts', and how Sinn Fein as an abstentionist party will deal with them. It's about victory, and that is honourable, but to concentrate on victory, or who is the biggest boy in the playground is to miss the point entirely.
Lets see how they handle the severe cuts coming to their electorate. Sinn Fein cannot ask people to protest against cuts they are in power to implement, they are a party in power not opposition, they cannot be in a coalition that will oversee cuts and then complain about the cuts, that simply isn't going to wash when people feel necessity knocking on the door.
