Comes the Revolution
LOS ANGELES — Andrew Breitbart, the publisher of Breitbart.com and a couple of other popular websites, set the tone for a program at the University of Southern California last Wednesday by calling George Stephanopoulus of ABC News a little rat with a runny nose.
He continued by equating mainstream newspapers and television news, National Public Radio, Hollywood and American universities with totalitarians around the world, citing Joseph Stalin, Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, cultural Marxism and storm troopers.
He was joined by Jon Fleischman, founder of FlashReport.org, a popular website out here that aggregates and reports on California politics, government and cultural life. He offered the opinion that "President Obama represents the abyss. He is taking us over the socialist cliff."
Then he added: "We're in a war here, a cultural war, fighting over the future of the country. We're playing defense against the dominant culture."
Breitbart, you may remember, made his bones trying to destroy ACORN, a social agency advocating for poor people, by using hidden cameras to photograph a community organizer offering advice to a phony "pimp," actually a Breitbart staffer — then editing the film and giving it to Fox News.
He is a very serious, very angry man, and a professional (with his own definitions of professional) who helped found and establish The Huffington Post. And though he might deny it, I, for one, found him more angry than he is Republican or conservative.
"I don't give a damn about Romney or Santorum," he said. "I am trying to level the media playing field," which he sees as tipping wildly to the left.
In addition to Stephanopolous, who worked for President Clinton, Breitbart is enraged by the fact that James Carville, another Clinton product, is on television so often playing the folksy Southerner. He also has a thing about Christiane Amanpour being married to James Rubin, a former Clinton spokesman.
(No one mentioned that Diane Sawyer of ABC News was in President Nixon's press office, and so was David Gergen of CNN.)
It was a revealing hour, sponsored by the Annenberg School's Center on Communication Leadership and Policy, opening a window into what kind of thinking is behind or under the Republican Party, the tea party and the conservative movement, which are not all the same thing by any means. The panel included a student, Lizzie Breiter, president of the USC Republican Club, and Jonathon Wilcox, a CCLP instructor who once wrote speeches for Republican governor and senator Pete Wilson. In fact, the person they attacked most often was George Soros, who helped finance MediaMatters.org, which presents itself as a rapid response monitor and corrective to right-wing websites and blogs.
They all seemed to see this as an exciting time for media — and it is. Breitbart said his mentors or examples were Rush Limbaugh and Matt Drudge of the Drudge Report, who forced their way onto the media playfield. If you think back to what Drudge managed to do from a small apartment with no money in West Hollywood in the mid-1990s, he is practically the Gutenberg of aggregating news and opinion to serve a political purpose. It was Drudge whose career has best illustrated a basic Breitbart tenet: Today, anybody can be the media.
Where does all this go? I don't know. To me it seems like the just-below-the-surface rage against the machine in the Democratic Party during the Vietnam War. But Breitbart, a great performer, says this phenomena is at best still in its adolescence. Can't argue with that.
As for me, both an academic and a liberal columnist, Fleischman had this to say: "American colleges are the petri dish for hell."

Josie Gibson - Top Tips for keeping the weight off
1. Make time to move whether it be walking the kids to school, cycling into work, hitting the gym or at home with a
fitness DVD. Make Time and incorporate it into your life like a job that you have to do.
2. Do Not keep rubbish in the cupboards. If you keep naughty food in the cupboard you are going to eat it and if you are anything like me its always late at night.
3. Be organised with your meals. Roughly know what you are going to have and do not let your self get hungry as this is when you reach out for something unhealthy.
4. Always read your food labels and check the ingredients, If you don't recognize or can not pronounce most of the packet don't even bother. If sugar comes up as the top ingredients that's what it contains the majority of.
5. If you know you have a passion for something naughty, find the healthy alternative, You can
make healthy ice cream, pizza, fish and chips- just find what you like but a better version of making it so its good for your body.
6. Weigh AT LEAST once a week. All this is doing is measuring where you are- think of it as mini report. You would have a report to
check whether you are good at your job so why not where you are with your body. I always go for a body scan once a month at James Starks gym in Bristol.
7. Stay motivated by joining a slimming group or hiring a PT or making a pact with friends- its always easier with other people
8. Track your progress when
losing weight, 98% of people who track their progress succeed.
9. Look at yourself in a swimsuit in the mirror from time to time. This way you can look at your body and design it how you would like. You can literally design your body to whatever you want it to be- think of yourself as an architect and your body as the foundations.
10. I always choose HIIT training over any other sort of training. This for me helps me
lose weight fast and affectively gives me a nicer shape.

When it comes to the idea of having something for your pet you need to be definitely vigilant. A pet you own is no less than your family member and so any compromise over it is not at all acceptable. This means you must take care of every single thing that is associated with the pet you keep be it the food you provide your pet with or the tools you have been collecting for its grooming.
These days a lot of people have been found involved in the grooming of their dogs and which they do on their own. However, some people also prefer taking their dogs to a professional but that is a situation associated with numerous hassles. However when it comes to having the task of grooming done on your own you must consider the idea of having the right dog clippers in your hand. When you go through the different dog clippers review you may get confused because some are being appreciated and some aren't. so, rather than making a decision entirely over the dog clippers review it is suggested to go through the details provided below so that you may have the right purchase carried out.
- Always look for the sharpest clippers, when the clippers you end up buying aren't sharp enough you may get yourself in a trouble and so as your dog because they won't work comfortably.
- On the other hand, you need to have clippers that aren't dull; when the clippers you purchase are dull you may face a lot of trouble. Since the dull clippers rather than cutting the coat end up pinching and pulling the hair which in turn makes it painful for your dog to tolerate the pain.
- Always ensure that the clippers you are purchasing are associated with the best quality motor and make sure while using if the clippers get hot keep them aside or else the motor may get burnt.

Kurt Kober is running for Lieutenant Governor.
Hello, I'm Kurt
A third generation sheboyganite and lifelong democrat running for lieutenant governor.
My family, the community of Sheboygan, and the State of Wisconsin launched me. Now I want to help rewire Wisconsin.
Let's Rewire Wisconsin!
It's time to focus on Wisconsin - where it's going and how best to get there.
Why Now
Over the next decade, our country and state will experience major social and technological change. We will see driverless cars and trucks, the ability to work from anywhere, and jobs we can't even imagine today. We need visionary leadership to make the most of the coming opportunities.
Why Wisconsin
Together, our state has led in transformational times before. Wisconsin shines when we invest in hard work, education, and collaboration. It's time to remember the spirit of fighting Bob La Follette and move our state forward once again
Why All of Us
We are stronger when we work together. Our whole state was transformed through our cutting edge university system. A group of workers came together in Milwaukee to found the labor movement, creating better working conditions for all. This takes working across aisles, compromising, and being kind.
Looking Forward
What could the future look like?
Meet Pam.
In the face of declining foot traffic she leverages tech, social media marketing & a low-interest "business transformation loan" to become a national home goods e-commerce business.
Meet Clete.
Leverages a Made in Wisconsin equipment "sharing" business to help his family's farm become a leader in the organic milk movement that's supported by a national "Crafted in Wisconsin" campaign.
Where do we start?
If Wisconsin embraces change by:
Investing in high speed internet for all to open up economic opportunities at the individual, business, and community level,
Executing personalized, life long learning to prepare a workforce for rapidly evolving markets,
Leading the disruption in our core industries of manufacturing, agriculture, and biotech instead of being disrupted, and
Demonstrating how protecting the natural environment can be an economic driver to recruit new employees into the state while also encouraging recreation for all existing ones…

For years I've disliked John Lennon's supposed masterpiece, "Imagine." Oh, the tune is lovely, especially in its simplicity. The lyrics, though, just bother me. Until recently I never really understood why I couldn't connect with the song.
But in the last few weeks, the reasons for my disdain became clear and they should have been obvious to me a long time ago. "Imagine" is supposed to describe a utopian reality, the world of a "dreamer" in which all is right and good. The world that John describes, though, isn't in my opinion a utopia at all. In fact, it sounds rather frightening and dreary.
The lyrics are in italics. My comments are in bold beneath them.
Imagine there's no Heaven
Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
It's harder to imagine that there is a Heaven, not so much its existence, but what exactly it would be. Real or not, Heaven gives many of us great hope for better, happier days to come. I'd rather "imagine" Heaven than imagine an eternity of nothingness.
OK, I can imagine no Hell, I suppose (of course how does one imagine the non-existence of a thing?) That seems pleasant enough. This bit about sky being the only thing above us, again, seems fairly lonely. I don't see the pleasantness in that.
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Odd words to come from a man who fought for years to live in a particular country, i.e. the United States. If countries aren't so important, Mr. Lennon, why did you want so badly to stay in this one? A border is just an arbitrary line on a map, after all. No thank you, I quite like my own country and others as well. Countries, like languages, make and shape people into who they are. One of the great things about our world is that there are so many different people from so many different places. We eat different foods, worship in different ways, celebrate family differently and, by necessity, live in societies that are governed differently. If you want to imagine no bad countries, I'm on board with that.
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
It would be wonderful if there was nothing to kill or die for. That one's a bit hard to argue. The positioning of that lyric before "an no religion too" is unfortunate. There is no doubt that "religion" has been a major source in human history of all kinds of strife. I would never suggest otherwise. It has also provided BILLIONS of people with comfort in time of need. I bet one local church in my area has fed more hungry people than John Lennon ever did. For many, some type of "religion" has given us inner peace, a sense of something larger than ourselves, a purpose even. And, no, I'm not going to divorce the words "religion" and "faith" or "religion" and "spirituality." Others can argue that if they like.
Ideally, the aim of faithful people is to better their lives and the lives of those around them. If that is a goal, it certainly is an argument for the so-called "good" in "religion."
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
This sounds good. Let's try to imagine that. Like I said, "religion" should be about the business of making the world a better place, including promoting peace. Sadly, human beings don't like peace really and no silly pop song is going to cause them to want to get along with each other.
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
No thanks. I'm not interested in the "world be(ing) as one." I would like us to love and respect each other. How about we all try following the "Golden Rule" for awhile; see where that takes us.
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
Elvis Costello asked in "Other Side of Summer," "Was it a millionaire who said imagine no possessions?" Yes, Elvis, it was a millionaire who said that. That millionaire was killed as he was returning home to one of the most exclusive residences in the mightiest city on earth. Apparently "possessions" do not include: million-dollar plus apartments next to Central Park; millions in cash; royalties from the most successful songwriting partnership that has or will ever exist; investments in various companies, etc. I really resent the preachiness — hypocrisy — of this line.
Besides, I quite like my possessions. I don't have too many fancy things, but I have a cozy home, family heirlooms, comfortable furniture, a brand-new bass guitar, a reliable vehicle and clothes. I have loads of books and even more CDs. I guess John thinks I should give up all so the world will be better place.
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
It can't really wrap my head around these lines. Sure, no hunger seems easy enough to understand. I'm not sure, though, where need turns to want and want to greed. I'm also not sure what that "brotherhood of man" would look like or how we'd "share the world." Sounds like just so much blather. Possessions, as I suggested aren't bad in and of themselves, and I'm not sure I want to imagine the fruits of my labor belonging equally to others. What do I get in exchange for everything I'm to imagine no longer having?
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
I could never join this cult. 'Cuz you're really talking about destruction (of our entire way of life) and you can count me out.

ERP Operational Level Benefits & Business Goals Correlation
Hi All,
I am a new member of SAP Fans community. As a part of my project at Infosys India, I am analyzing the level of correlation between the high level business objectives(like Revenue Growth, Customer Satisfaction etc) and the KPI's at the operational level (like Order fill rate, Cash to Cash cycle time etc). More precisely, I am interested in aligning the ERP benefits at operational levels (which in turn effect KPI's) to high level business goals.
In that regard, I would greatly appreciate some inputs on how to correlate the above parameters effectively (like are there any useful frameworks, tools, industry wide best practices etc).
Thank You very much!!
Help us correlate ERP Business benefits and High level Business goals by taking this Survey and get the Survey results and uses(upon request).

The Benefits of Juice Cleanse
With the right Juice cleanse, it is possible to detoxify the body for more mental, emotional and spiritual awareness. It is also possible to feel more energized as the body has been given some time to rest and rejuvenate. As a result, you can have healthier looking skin and more energy. Whether or not you have a healthy lifestyle, detoxifying the body through juice cleansing has many added benefits.
Why Juice Cleaning?
As well as detoxifying the whole body, juice cleansing gives the liver a chance to reduce its workload and as a result it will work better too. The liver is a primary organ for carrying out the process of detoxification on a regular basis. Giving it a rest now and again will only help it to help you keep a clean body. As well opting for juice cleansing and allowing your liver to rest gives the added benefit of an improvement in your skin as well as more mental clarity.
It is important that the juice is fresh and not pasteurized as pasteurizing is done using high heat which ends up destroying the vital nutrients in the juice. Juice cleansing, or fasting, helps to give your digestive system a rest since it takes less energy to absorb the nutrients and as a result you will get a sense of renewed energy after you have completed a juice cleanse.
During a juice cleanse it is possible to experience some side effects that although unpleasant are just part of the process. You may notice that you have a stronger body odour and bad breath. Pimples may appear on different areas of your body. This is just the way your body is trying to release toxins. You may also experience more gas as yeast or parasites die off. Not to worry though, as this is only temporary and an indication that your body is detoxing.
Make sure when you are juice cleansing that you use a broad variety of fruits and vegetables in a combination that will enhance your health. One of my favourite juice combinations is 1 carrot, 2 stalks of celery, 1 apple and a tomato. There are a number of different combinations to try and you will probably want to experiment to find your favourite.

Christmas is about celebrating our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It's about celebrating his birth and renewing our faith. It's about rejoycing because His birth proves that good triumphs over evil. It's important for us to take a step back and find peace among the chaos. Jesus brings peace to our lives and focusing on Him {the reason for the season} instead of everything going on around us allows us find the calm. This is one thing I personally need to remember. I was SO SO
During crazy times, here are a few things that I do to keep calm and find peace among chaos:
- Have some quiet time, by myself, to meditate and pray.
- Step away and take a break from what I'm doing when I get overwhelmed.
- RUN! This is honestly my number 1 stress reliever. Other types of workouts work as well.
- Yoga, by myself, with calming music. Relaxation at it's finest!
- Snuggle with my hubby {unless he's the one who is stressing me out :)}
- Bake...it takes my mind off of what's bothering me

The boat, NZL92, do things it refused to do. They snapped the spinnaker pole, jammed the headsail and gennaker, and limped off the Waitemata racecourse, leaving Team NZ to trot to the end on your own for the second working day running. "They're tough boats to sail and they will bite you. But that's what tends to make it so fantastic," stated TeamOrigin bowman Matt Mitchell.

XML Editor: First of all, I really appreciate the Annotated XML Spec done by Tim Bray! It's great to see why some decisions are made and the technical explanations are really helping me get a grasp on XML much quicker than otherwise. Now, to the point: I think there might be an error in the document at rules 49 and 50 (3.2.1). The first references to 'cp' are not hyperlinked. This caused me some confusion for about 3 seconds.

I still remember how deeply impressed I was while watching the movie "All the invisible children''. The movie reflects the miserable and difficult economical, social conditions that children face in seven different countries; some of them are victims of physical, psychological violence, some of them have to work hard to earn money and their years of childhood are running out in unbearable conditions. The movie was released in 2006 and consists of seven short stories directed by Emir Kusturica, Spike Lee, etc. The directors express their attitude towards significant social problems - unprotected children, hard life conditions at home, relationships among peers, violence against children, deviation, perception of a child as a person, who has his/her own rights. The novels are representing problematic issues from different cultural, sub-cultural perspective that gives the movie multicultural context http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfDbM7XrF4Q.
Unfortunately, the issue of protecting children's rights is quite unpopular theme in Georgian media or political discourse. It should be one of essential concerns for the society to bring up, educate and take care children. But, the ignorance of these issues is quite obvious in Georgian environment. As I have observed, media broadcasts mostly those events, that are organized by politicians or different international and local organizations, e.g. on the international children's day children's houses are gifted with candies, drawing-pads, etc.
The statistics related to children is very disturbing in Georgia. According to Unicef research (2009-2011) every fourth child in Georgia is socially unprotected and lives in miserable conditions. The number of these children is reaching 77 thousand (!) http://ghn.ge/news-71112.html.
Furthermore, there is also other important problem related to the lack of information about how to raise a child. According to Unicef report (2007) 79,8% of children was physically punished by their parents and 82,3% of children was affected by psychological violence. 21,5% of parents declared that they were beating their children, eight respondents reported, that they have tried to suffocate their children.
While searching some information about children's conditions in Georgia I found one research - "Attitude toward violence and aggression in adolescent age''. (There was no note about who has conducted the research, supposedly some governmental institution). The size of the sample was 1000 respondents. I would like to stress out few questions which were raised in this research.
1. To your mind, who/which social institution is able to solve the problem of violence and aggression in young generation?
- The majority of respondents think that this problem could be solved by the whole family - 43.3% and by church - 31%. The percentages for other important social institutions vary like this:
- School - 4,5%
- Teachers - 0,3%
- Government - 5%
- Police - 3,2%
- Media - 0,8%
- The Ministry of Education and Science - 0,5%
According to these data we can consider, that Georgian society does not fully recognize the importance of social institutions in country's development process. The involvement of social institutions in solving problematic social issues is inevitable for the democratic society. Hence, only family and church are not able to eliminate the problem of violence and aggression in younger age, as this problem is also connected with school, teachers, governmental institutions, etc. Moreover 74,7% of respondents report, that they have scarce financial resources to buy all necessary things for their children... How this kind of families will solve so many problems related to their young family members?
There is a widespread opinion in Georgia, that some facts must stay "at home'' and should not be declared to the society; as a result of this approach human's rights are often sacrificed. My hypothesis that the principle family problems must stay "at home'' was proved with several questions and answers from the mentioned research:
- Has a child in your family ever become a victim of violence/aggression from other child? - 98.5% - no
- Has a child ever become a victim of violence/aggression from your family member child? - 98,7%- no
- Has a child from your family ever become a victim of violence/aggression from an adult? 98,9%- no.
- Has an adult person become victim of violence/aggression from your family member child? -99.3% - no
The high percentages on these questions could be explained with the social desirability phenomenon. People refuse to answer sincerely to the sensitive questions about their family, private life, and are careful about sharing their problems with the wider society. In addition to this, Georgian society is not fully informed about the forms of violence, children's rights. This hypothesis was confirmed with following data.
From this diagram we can observe how Georgian society lacks the information about forms of violence: pinch, shake, shout, curse (!!!), command (!!!), pulling the hair, swearing (!!!), and etc. are forms of violence, but high percentage of investigated people do not consider them as a violence against a child.
I think it is a complicated to judge the society, where people do not have information about such delicate issues, and furthermore, the majority of the society lives in poverty. Our society is not ready to revise the stereotype that despite their age children are independent individuals, who have their own rights. Also, the opinion that adults have right to punish children, command them and etc. is quite widespread in our society.
It is worth mentioning, that 22% of respondents report that movies involving aggressive, violent scenes negatively affect children's behavior, but at the same time, only 0,8% of respondents consider the role of media important in solving the problem of violence and aggression in children and adolescent. Hence, this proves that people do not fully realize which methods are the most effective to solve the issue. Who must be responsible for informing Georgian society about problematic civic issues? - governmental institutions, civic society, intellectual elite, media, church, or maybe they altogether ... ?

BURROUGHS HIGH — Three minutes into Thursday's 30th annual Burroughs Magnolia Park Optimist Tournament opener Thursday the Burbank High girls' basketball team began relenting on its pressure defense.
The Bulldogs didn't need to press much further.
They already had a 14-point lead, had yet to allow more than a single field goal attempt and had forced six turnovers against an overmatched Canoga Park squad.
That's how most of the game went for the Bulldogs, as they cruised to a 66-13 win at Burroughs High. Burbank (4-1) will next play at 3:30 p.m. in Saturday's quarterfinals.

text: Hi everyone! I've benefited from gold and silver prices rise through mining stocks trading but i'd like to slowly involve myself with future trading. First of all, from what i've understood, spread trading is the safest starting point. Am i right ? I've read somewhere that spreads in metals are expressed in the opposite way spread for other products are. Example of what i've read: "Buy JAN/DEC" would mean long DEC and short JAN for a bear spread in gold and would mean long JAN and short DEC for a bull spread in corn. Is this right ? (Is this also a standard or do brokers have different "codes"?) Also if you have some resources (books, website) on futures and spread trading that you like, please feel welcome to share these Many thx in advance.

GERHARD GROOT (1340—1384), otherwise Gerrit or Geert Groet, in Latin Gerardus Magnus, a preacher and founder of the society of Brothers of Common Life (q.v.), was born in 1340 at Deventer in the diocese of Utrecht, where his father held a good civic position. He went to the university of Paris when only fifteen. Here he studied scholastic philosophy and theology under a pupil of Occam's, from whom he imbibed the nominalist conception of philosophy; in addition he studied canon law, medicine, astronomy and even magic, and apparently some Hebrew. After a brilliant course he graduated in 1358, and possibly became master in 1363. He pursued his studies still further in Cologne, and perhaps in Prague. In 1366 he visited the papal court at Avignon. About this time he was appointed to a canonry in Utrecht and to another in Aix-la-Chapelle, and the life of the brilliant young scholar was rapidly becoming luxurious, secular and selfish, when a great spiritual change passed over him which resulted in a final renunciation of every worldly enjoyment. This conversion, which took place in 1374, appears to have been due partly to the effects of a dangerous illness and partly to the influence of Henry de Calcar, the learned and pious prior of the Carthusian monastery at Munnikhuizen near Arnhem, who had remonstrated with him on the vanity of his life. About 1376 Gerhard retired to this monastery and there spent three years in meditation, prayer and study, without, however, becoming a Carthusian. In 1379, having received ordination as a deacon, he became missionary preacher through-out the diocese of Utrecht. The success which followed his labours not only in the town of Utrecht, but also in Zwolle, Deventer, Kampen, Amsterdam, Haarlem, Gouda, Leiden, Delft, Zutphen and elsewhere, was immense; according to Thomas A. Kempis the people left their business and their meals to hear his sermons, so that the churches could not hold the crowds that flocked together wherever he came. The bishop of Utrecht supported him warmly, and got him to preach against concubinage in the presence of the clergy assembled in synod. The impartiality of his censures, which he directed not only against the prevailing sins of the laity, but also against heresy, simony, avarice, and impurity among the secular and regular clergy, provoked the hostility of the clergy, and accusations of heterodoxy were brought against him. It was in vain that Groot emitted a Publica Protestatio, in which he declared that Jesus Christ was the great subject of his discourses, that in all of them he believed himself to be in harmony with Catholic doctrine, and that he willingly subjected them to the candid judgment of the Roman Church. The bishop was induced to issue an edict which prohibited from preaching all who were not in priest's orders, and an appeal to Urban VI. was without effect. There is a difficulty as to the date of this prohibition; either it was only a few months before Groot's death, or else it must have been removed by the bishop, for Groot seems to have preached in public in the last year of his life. At some period (perhaps 1381, perhaps earlier) he paid a visit of some days' duration to the famous mystic Johann Ruysbroeck, prior of the Augustinian canons at Groenendael near Brussels; at this visit was formed Groot's attraction for the rule and life of the Augustinian canons which was destined to bear such notable fruit. At the close of his life he was asked by some of the clerics who attached themselves to him to form them into a religious order, and Groot resolved that they should be canons regular of St Augustine. No time was lost in the effort to carry out the project, but Groot died before a foundation could be made. In 1387, however, a site was secured at Windesheim, some 20 M. north of Deventer, and here was established the monastery that became the cradle of the Windesheim congregation of canons regular, embracing in course of time nearly one hundred houses, and leading the way in the series of reforms undertaken during the 15th century by all the religious orders in Germany. The initiation of this movement was the great achievement of Groot'sEnd of Article: GERHARD GROOT (1340—1384)

Anel Van der Walt
Being a gymnast for the best part of her life, it was difficult to find a sport that shares the same physical challenges and technical skill set, until Anel stumbled across this new sport they called Pole Sport and Fitness. She started pole dancing in 2011 and she was immediately hooked. Pole dance gave her a platform to deal with epic personalities and meet extravagant people! It allows for strength, grace and artistry and gave her a new skill set all together. Anel is now a competitive pole dancer and instructor, and known for her dynamic tricks, beastly flips and tumbles.
Anel's titles include:
- Runner up Pole Sports League 2013
- Runner up Pole Acrobat Professional, The Pole Factor 2016
- Runner up Arnold Classics Pole Championship Series 2017
- Winner Acro Pole Gold Division, Acro Pole Art Classic (APAC) 2017
- Winner Pole Acrobat Professional, The Pole Factor 2017
Anelma Botha
Anelma's love for dancing started at age 5 thanks to her flat feet. The doctor advised her mom to take her for ballet lessons to help develop her foot bridge!
A few years later she started taking modern dancing and tap dancing lessons and continued with ballet. She passed her advanced modern exam with distinction and ballet intermediate exam with honours. Anelma started pole dancing in 2013 and fell in love with this amazing sport!
Anelma is passionate about teaching and likes to choreograph new routines using various styles of dance. Creativity, flow of movement, perfectly beautiful lines and musicality is what inspires her.
Robyn Khoury
Robyn started pole dancing in 2011, in a small studio in Pietermaritzburg, before joining The Pole Project in 2014. Having had no prior dance or gymnastics experience, Robyn understands the hard work and dedication that is required to increase your strength and flexibility for pole.
Robyn finds pole dancing incredibly rewarding, and constantly surprises herself as she achieves moves and combos that she never dreamed were possible! She loves the flexibility and freedom to experiment that pole dancing provides, and is known for her fearlessness and back-breaking moves.
Robyn started teaching Beginners and Intermediate classes at The Pole Project in 2016. She has found so much joy in being able to share her passion for pole, and in taking students on the journey that changed her life.
Sherry Bremner
Sherry started pole dancing in 2011 and fell in love with it instantly! With a background in acrobatics and modern dancing, she quickly progressed to the competition stage. In 2013, as part of a duet, Sherry competed in and won the National Pole Sports Competition. She and her partner then went on to place 2nd at the International Pole Sports Championships in London. Since then she placed 1st in the Pole Art division of Pole Theatre 2015, competed in the Pole Championship Series Africa 2016, as well as the Elite solo and duet divisions of the National Pole Sports Competition 2016. Sherry also won the duet division of The Pole Factor 2016 with her partner. Sherry has been a brand ambassador for X-Pole South Africa since 2015. She also loves her part time job as a pole instructor, finding that sharing her passion is extremely fulfilling.
Vanya Keren
Vanya's passionate pathway to pole led her to The Pole Project.
Her respect and admiration of this art form and sport not only propels her to excel at pole, but to also break down the misconception that pole is synonymous with "striptease and sleaze".
Vanya was immersed in the world of dance since age 3, and was a professional dancer from age 16. This paved the way to Vanya becoming a renowned yoga instructor since 2009. Her background in dance and yoga has also equipped her with an impeccable work ethic.
Vanya's inherent ability to "mine the silences" between movements and moments is fluid and dynamic. As an instructor, she possesses the patience, tolerance, compassion, care and fun-fused-energy that is so essential in making a good teacher; while injecting each and every student with the power and inspiration to dare to go beyond themselves and achieve NEW HEIGHTS!
She entered her first Pole Factor competition in 2016 – after only 10 months of poling - and won the Pole Artiste Amateur division.
"Confidence and making the IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE is true power. I love that this sport allows both men and women to do just that - I could go on, but that's another chapter in what has been an awe-inspiring journey. See you in class."

Catskill Double-Wing Drop Leaf Cabinet Cart - 20" x 20" Expands to 40" x 20"
|Your Price:
Lead Time: Typically ships within 2 to 5 business days.
Shipping and delivery info: This item ships UPS.
About this product
- 7/8"-thick hardwood butcher block and drop leaves (two)
- Overall dimensions (leaves down): 20"W x 20"D x 34-1/4"H
- Overall dimensions (leaves up): 40"W x 20"D x 34-1/4"H
- Storage drawer, enclosed cabinet and open shelf
- Finished with Catskill's Original Butcher Block Oil
Note: Full assembly is required.
Despite its compact size, with a footprint of only 20" by 20", this kitchen cart provides ample storage and a variety of work space configuration options. An open shelf, drawer and storage cabinet will help you keep your kitchen neat and well organized. And its hardwood work surface is expandable to twice its base size. Yet it fits neatly against a wall or in a corner when not in use. Thanks to caster wheels, you can easily roll it out when it's needed, then back to its resting spot.
A Drop Leaf on Each Side Adds Workspace plus Flexibility
With two independently operated drop leaves, the Drop Leaf Cabinet Cart adjusts to suit the task at hand. The cart's stationary top – 20 inches square – is all you'll need for most small food prep chores. For slightly bigger undertakings, raise a single leaf to work on a surface 30 inches wide by 20 inches deep. And when preparing a full family dinner, extend both leaves and enjoy the luxury of a solid and reliable work surface that's 40 inches wide and 20 inches deep, or nearly six square feet. That's as much space as you'll find on many large-size carts or small to medium-size islands, and it's 100% hardwood butcher block, 7/8 of an inch thick.
Makes an Outstanding Storage Cart Too
For added storage, this rolling kitchen cart includes a drawer for utensils along with an open shelf for items like cookbooks, a sugar bowl and salt and pepper shakers, plus a lower cabinet where you might store cookware or mixing bowls. The drawer is just under a foot wide and over a foot deep (front to back). The open shelf is a 15-7/8-inch square with 6-1/2 inches of vertical clearance. The inside of the cabinet is a similar-sized square, but 15 inches high.

1. Coke in the final frontier. In 1985, Coke became the first soda drank in space when astronauts on board the Space Shuttle Challenger tested the "Coca-Cola Space Can."
2. Gotta try them all? Well, it will take you 9 years. In addition to Coca-Cola, diet Coke, Sprite and the other well known soft drinks, Coca-Cola boasts over 3500 beverages under 500 brand names. So, happy drinking!
3. Coke is richer than some countries. According to the CIA World Factbook, Coca-Cola, with it's $35 billion dollars in revenue, ranks 84th among the world's economies. It is followed by Costa Rica.
4. Coke's distinctive bottle shape is no accident. When the Coca-Cola company decided to start bottling their product, they realized that they needed a way to make it stand out. After all, other drinks were being bottled as well, and the bottles all looked the same. Earl Dean , the supervisor of the bottle molding room at Root Glass Company of Terra Haute, designed the bottle based on the shape of a cacao seed pod. Thanks to its unique shape, customers can distinguish Coke bottle from any other bottle by feel alone
|5. Looking to cut your sugar? The average American
consumes 142 pounds of sugar per year. Based on the fact that the most
of us drink 125.7 classic Coca-Colas a year, and there are 39 grams of
sugar in each serving, about 10.8 pounds of the sugar consumed by each
person comes from Coke.
6. "There's nothing like the real thing." New Coke (as customers called the changed recipe that Coca-Cola released in April of 1985) might have been good enough for the astronauts to bring to space, but not for the American public. In July 1985, just 3 months after it was replaced by the new formula, the company brought back its original recipe under the name "Coca-Cola Classic". New Coke–or Coca-Cola II as it came to be called–is no longer sold in the United States.
7. Please recycle. 300,000 tons of aluminum–17.4% of the United State's aluminum production–go into making Coke cans each year. That is a lot of metal.
8. Mexicans really love their Coca-Cola. While American, British, Chinese and Indian customers drink a combined average of 642 servings of Coke products per year, Mexicans drink 665 servings.
9. Coke is kosher. The Coca-Cola company took the risk of releasing its super secret recipe to the scrutiny of Rabbi Tobias Gefen in 1935 in order to ensure that its Orthodox Jewish customers could drink Coke without fear of breaking their dietary laws. Kasherizing Coke meant replacing glycerin made with unkosher beef tallow with a glycerin made with coconut and cottonseed oil, as well as changing the recipe from one that used grain-based sugar to one that used beet or cane sugar around Passover.
10. Coca-Cola is not just for drinking. Many people use Coke for everything from cleaning and stain removal to making a great ham.

Towards better online Terms & Conditions
The CommonTerms project aims to reduce the need for consenting to online terms without good reasons. This could make the internet a much better place for all, and contribute to digital sustainability.
The "biggest lie on the internet", of course, is "Yes I have read and agree to the terms". Reading is not reasonable, so everybody lies. How can users be expected to make wise choices when they do not know the terms and usually not even see the price for online services? How can providers be expected to offer fair terms if nobody even notices?
The project was initiated in 2010 by Metamatrix AB and funded by the Internet Foundation in Sweden (Internetfonden) for several years. See for example our reports Previewing online terms and conditions (pdf, 2MB) or Fighting the Biggest Lie on the Internet (pdf, 2MB).
Due to other assignments, Metamatrix has not updated the full project website since 2015. But - unfortunately - the issue is still very relevant, even after GDPR addressed some aspects. We have tried to stay up to date with developments and made sporadic contributions in other ways. For example, we discuss the results in a 2019 publication by think tank Fores called "Plattformssamhället" (chapter 5, in Swedish).
This rest of this page describes some of the conclusions from the project, so far.
How to overcome the fine print obstacle
Pär Lannerö, 2015
Today: meaningless consent
Meaningful consent is rare on today's internet. Usually, users are neither informed nor in possession of good reasons for trust. Yet we repeatedly consent to unfavorable terms, especially in the privacy domain. We feel like we have no real alternative, and no real influence over online terms of service. We're usually in a hurry and prefer to avoid consenting to anything, if possible. But when there's no way forward but through consent, we keep our fingers crossed, tick the box and hope for the best. This is the "biggest lie" on the internet ("yes I have read and agree to the terms").
There's no way we can read and understand all of the fine print (Terms & Conditions, Cookie declarations, Privacy policies…) and there's no way contracts will disappear.
The CommonTerms project has been exploring ways to stop the "biggest lie" problem since 2010. We have studied what other similar initiatives have done, and produced prototype "solutions" to the problems associated with the biggest lie. We conclude that
- Contracting, even using fine print, is essentially something good.
- But the biggest lie is a real problem with several negative implications.
- It is not the most urgent problem around for most people, which can help explain why the situation has not been dealt with in a serious manner.
- It is rather complex and touches on many disciplines, including law, commerce, psychology, technology, security, design…
- We still believe the problem can be significantly reduced, and that several types of improvements can and should be combined to this end.
Five ways to challenge the obstacle
In the following we summarize a central conclusion from our work so far: Five different categories of efforts that can and should be used to reduce the need to lie when consenting to agreements online. Together, these efforts can turn the fine print from obstacle to a vehicle for mutual protection and support.
The first (bottom) 3 categories reduce the need to read contracts at the time of consent (virtually cutting out slices of fine print). The next makes reading more rewarding, and the last (top) one makes reading easier.
Mandatory user protection
Terms of service and consent dialogues can be reduced in size when law or other mandatory regulation provides users with basic levels of protection, or in other ways define a common ground. If such regulation has legal preference over anything that can be put in a contract, there's no need to deal with the issues in the contract.
Since the internet crosses many national borders, and it can be very hard to tell what jurisdiction applies to activities in a specific system, international conventions are attractive here. But mandatory protection could also be provided at national or regional (eg. EU) level. It can apply to all kinds of interactions, or to specific industries/business sectors.
Mandatory legal protection of users (as well as providers) can reduce the amount of fine print and the risk associated with accepting contracts.
The Dynamic Coalition on Platform Responsibility (DCPR) which is currently being discussed in the context of the UN:s Internet Governance Forum, is an example of user protection with a global scope. The DCPR aims to produce a common baseline agreement for user protection in social media platforms. Another example is COPPA, which gives some basic protection for minors on US websites.
DCPR, by the way, does not only concern itself with the substance matter of online contracts, but also defines a common due process.
Time shift
When you cannot create mandatory protective systems, there may still be a lot of benefit in standardization of entire contracts or parts of contracts. With standardized contracts or contract modules, you can read and understand once and then easily accept or reject when you see it again and again. In the open source software world, standardized licenses (GPL, Mozilla, BSD…) work like this, and have been used for decades. For copyright, Creative Commons licenses enable a time shift in a similar way: Users learn the licenses once, then reuse this knowledge many times.
Different ways to remove the need to read at the time of consent.
It is easy to imagine a techincal infrastructure that can remember your consents, for later re-use. A personal cloud service could store a copy of every fine print clause you accept or decline, and every part of every new contract you encounter could be automatically compared with your previous decisions regarding similar clauses. You could configure your software to automatically accept things you already accepted, and to display only clauses that you have not already seen, or to display only clauses that you or your friends usually do not accept. This would greatly reduce the need to read at consent time. A database of common terms/clauses would be a very useful component in such an infrastructure. A handful of projects, including CommonTerms, have done work in this area.
An alternative to storing decisions for re-use as you go is to maintain a preference model. With P3P (platform for privacy preferences) users could pre-configure their web browser to accept or deny certain types of cookies. This was another kind of time shift from the time of consent to an earlier occasion. However, a large percentage of users never bother to configure their preferences, so I'm more attracted to the successive accumulation of preferences by logging actual decisions you make in real life settings.
And just as you can time shift reading, understanding and decision making backwards, sometimes you can time shift forward from the current time of consent. Just-in-time consent can happen when a particular action is about to be taken in a system that you have been using for a long time. Any clauses pertaining to the particular action could be omitted from the contract you usually have to consent to when registering for the service.
Another option is to offer trial use of a system or service without the need to read and accept extensive fine print. Instead, the user could be offered a sandbox/novice status, possibly with some restrictions. This might not be popular with sites who want to boost their number of "members", but it would also lower the threshold for people to check out a new service.
Consent based on trust is usually less burdensome than informed consent, and still often results in a better protection of your interests.
Extending your arm so that your doctor can take a blood sample, is a good example of meaningful consent based on trust. Relying on experts or experienced friends' recommendations usually make decisions rather balanced. This is especially attractive if you're a novice in the domain. Even automated expert systems can be useful.
Sometimes, for example when selecting a restaurant in a new city, we rely on the "wisdom of the crowd". But take care. The crowd can be wrong or even manipulated.
You pay extra for brands, but the investment the brand owner has put into it also creates a reason for trust. And reputation is one of the best tools we have to stop deception and fraud.
If you have good reasons to trust the other party, consent can be meaningful even if it is not informed.
Transparency, investigative journalism, and civil rights organizations are other sources of trust, because they incentivize providers of goods and services to deliver quality.
By actively supporting trust creation using tools such as certifications, accreditation, transparency and auditing, we can reduce the number of times that netizens need to hesitate at consenting.
Empower users
Users' willingness to read (or in other ways gain knowledge of) terms & conditions should increase if there's any chance reading will actually make a difference. If users can actually influence the trade-offs being made in a contract, this should make reading more meaningful. Giving users more choice than take-it-or-leave-it could do miracles here.
If it makes a difference, users will be more motivated to become informed.
Another way to add meaning to reading the T&Cs is gamification. The online gaming company Zynga explored this in Privacyville, where users could collect a few points for later use inside the game by actively exploring different sections of the Terms. I do not think this option is open for every context, though.
Make reading easier
Last, but not least, we definitely need to make it easier to read, navigate and understand the fine print that remains after the above cropping.
Some of the terms you will still need to be aware of, but the effort required for this can be significantly reduced.
We can accomplish this using plain language instead of legalese, and with clever use of tools in the UX and accessibility toolboxes. Education can reduce the literacy gap between contract and readers, but it will take time.
The CommonTerms project has proposed to standardize the presentation of terms. We do not think that icons can be used, except for a very limited set of very important and very common clauses. But standardization of categories, ordering, formatting and terminology can be used to make reading easier.

Friday Foto File: Just a little squirt
I've gotten in the habit of sitting outside to eat my breakfast every morning, and the little squirt bottle above is one of the things that goes out with me. I also take my breakfast (of course, usually a protein bar), a tall glass of ice water (that I must finish before I can go back in the house), a towel (in case there's still dew on the metal chair), the phone (so I'll hear it if it rings and also because it shows the time), my Kindle (or whatever book I'm reading), and Levi (Butch doesn't get up that early).
I never stay out there for more than half an hour, but it gets hot so early some days that a couple of well-placed squirts on my arms and legs can keep me cool until I've finished drinking the mandatory big glass of water. Not to mention that Levi adores having water squirted onto his tongue.

It sounds like a wonderful way to start!ReplyDelete
Thanks for commenting on my blog. Somehow, in the crashing of my last computer and restoring things to my new one, I had lost you. Now, you're back on my Google Reader.ReplyDelete
Well I am sorry Velvet but on my tablet I had lost you too...I had to go to Patsy's blog to get caught up with you...love the new glasses....but your eye brows are white like mine...I have resorted to using a darker blond brow pencil and just draw them how I want them and then pull the bangs down...It works for me...I don't let any one get to close to my face but grand kids.....and if you have a dollar a six year old grand boy thinks you look great... The ring is precious...your dad was full of it but you got your writing skills from him.....you are a joy....God bless you...I so enjoy your blog....ReplyDelete
Rottrover, it's a great way to start the day. Lets me ease into it gently instead of having it thrust upon me.ReplyDelete
Betty, glad to have you back. I like your blog because you almost always say what I'm thinking.
4th Sister, I've missed your presence here, but I've kept up with you on your blog, so you weren't lost to me. My eyebrows always disappeared under the rim of my old glasses, but now I'll have to pay more attention to them. I think that brow pencil may be the answer. So nice to hear from you.

I bet your mornings are fun, now that you have Levi for entertainment!ReplyDelete
What a sweet routine!ReplyDelete
Janet, Levi can make playing with a stick look like the most fun ever.ReplyDelete
Holly, sweet's a good word for it. I've never been a morning person, but now that I don't have to use an alarm clock and start my day before I'm ready to, I've begun to enjoy those quiet early hours.
Your comments might be the very best thing about blogging. I love it when you care enough to share your thoughts here, so go ahead and say what's on your mind.

Cross-reference information is somewhat renderer-specific. The information about whether `lambda' is a syntax or variable binding turns out to be the same for HTML and Latex, which is why `raco scribble ++xref-in setup/xref load-collections-xref --pdf' often works, but section links are different for HTML and Latex. I've previously considered adding a `raco setup' mode that builds Latex/PDF cross-reference files for all installed documentation (and then add something like a `load-collections-latex-xref' function to `setup/xref'). Now, though, I think it might be easier and better for the renders to collude so that the Latex renderer can use the HTML renderer's cross-reference files. Neither renderer keeps a superset of the other's information right now, but maybe the HTML information could become a superset of the Latex information. I'll investigate and report back.
