In September, I started a cupcake adventure. If you haven't read about it yet, you can do so here. ***
If you like chocolate and mint together, you would LOVE these cupcakes! Layer upon layer of chocolate, then mint, then chocolate, then mint. Mmm.
I was so excited to have a chance to use the cupcake papers my friends Emily and Jacee had gotten me for my birthday--pretty much the greatest gift for a baker and paper-lover like me! :) For these cupcakes I chose the obvious choice--brown!
As with pretty much every other recipe, I started by creaming butter and sugar...soon to be followed by eggs (shown hiding in the background).
While the butter and sugar are combining, I measured out the dry ingredients, including cocoa powder, as well as a half-cup of Andes mint chips.
Dry ingredients were added to the batter mixture.
As well as some half-and-half.
Then, the mint chips were sprinkled on top of the batter and pressed in slightly.
Would you LOOK AT THAT?! Mmm.
Once the cupcakes came out of the oven, they looked like pure perfection...but we're not finished yet!
((look at those mint chunks! Yummy!))
Butter and powdered sugar form the base for the icing...
And a little green coloring and some drops of peppermint extract make everything a bit mintier.
What a beauty! But we're still not done! (remember what I said about layers and layers?!)
Next, I melted some dark chocolate to make a ganache.
And each cupcake was dipped in the chocolate and then topped with a Junior Mint!
Woo hoo! Chocolate, mint, chocolate, mint, chocolate, mint!

first performed on
December 18, 2011
Agape Enterprise, Brooklyn, NY
performed once in 2011
Chloë Bass
Brooklyn, NY
The Bureau cordially invited guests to share a cup of afternoon tea at Agape Enterprise. What does it mean to have a daily cup of tea? "Tea Will Be Served" was a mediated tea and conversation about how what we do shapes us into who we are.
Guests were coordinated into pairs and asked to answer a series of questions focusing on the structure of daily behaviors. A set of serving exercises required guest participation, flipping the service expectation on its head. Rather than simply sitting and receiving a cup of tea, tables were wearable (and thus portable), and guests were guided as they moved around the space to collect the tea things. Interspersed with these activities, tea "menu" questions were asked in dialog. Each partner received a slightly different menu. Concluding the session, photographer TJ Hospodar took a large format portrait of each pair of guests, both to commemorate the experience and to generate materials for the upcoming Bureau of Self-Recognition solo exhibit at Momenta Art (2013). Guest responses to the tea questions will be used to provide information that shapes future activities/exercises that the Bureau of Self-Recognition will present both to live audiences and on the web.
"Tea Will Be Served" primarily addressed the relationship between expectations and reality. Through a series of relatively normal behaviors turned on their head, the performance explored how "making strange" can illuminate both the moment itself and our understanding of the everyday. The performance also aimed to make guests, rather than the artist, the central featured performers, generating the "watched" content for themselves as they experienced it. The artist served only as mediator and guide.
TEA MENU: Set A
Please ask your tea companion the following questions:
Have a seat. / What are three things you do every day? / Boil water. / Why do you keep doing things you don't like? / Brew tea. / How do you define The Daily? / Pour tea. / Where do you most notice yourself during your daily? / Season to taste. / Why is tea for two? / Drink.
TEA MENU: Set B
Please ask your tea companion the following questions:
Have a seat. / What are three things you do every day? / Boil water. / When are you going to stop doing things you don't like? / Brew tea. / How do you define your daily? / Pour tea. / How do we share the daily? / Season to taste. / What constitutes a ritual? / Drink.

Call Answered: Lawrence Leritz: "Dancers Over 40 Legacy Awards" + "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel"
I've always been fascinated by those who can truly dance. Chita Rivera, Gene Kelly, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, and Paula Abdul are just some of those who inspire me with their dance moves.
I am very excited to have the opportunity to interview dancer/choreographer Lawrence Leritz. Lawrence will be honored on December 10 at the Dancers Over 40 Legacy Awards, where he will receive the 10th Anniversary Legacy Award, presented by Tony Award winning Choreographer Jerry Mitchell. Lawrence can also be seen kicking his heels up in the second season of Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, dropping 12/5.
For more on Lawrence visit https://lawrenceleritz.com and follow him on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!
1. On December 10, you are being honored by the Dancers Over 40 Legacy Awards, where your longtime friend and Tony Award winning Choreographer Jerry Mitchell will introduce and speak about you. What does this honor mean to you & to have the award be given to you by Jerry? I am really thrilled and grateful to be receiving the 10th Anniversary Legacy Award from my peers. There's no one in show biz I respect more than dancers. The Legacy Award feels like a pinnacle point shining on so many years as a dancer and choreographer. A pat on the back from those that I admire the most.
Jerry and I go back to the early days of our Broadway careers. I'm guessing we met in 1980. We kept seeing each other at auditions and became friends. We both became busy doing shows. In 1983, I was hired to produce, direct and choreograph one-night shows called Broadway Showstoppers at various Broadway Theatres. We were part of New York Fashion week and wore designer costumes. Other than that, I did what I wanted. It was a great opportunity to create.
The first one was at the Hudson Theatre on 44th St (then named The Savoy). I asked a lot of excellent Broadway dancer friends to perform. The executive producer wanted all girls, but I said I had to have at least one male. They agreed and I called Jerry. The show was a big hit and Jerry was terrific. I knew he would be. Shortly afterwards, we did a smaller version of the show for the Men's Fashion Association in Philadelphia and dancer John DeLuca (producer/writer of Mary Poppins Returns) also joined our group. So it's very touching and meaningful to have Jerry with me that evening.
2. Who or what inspired you to be a dancer/choreographer? As a dancer, Gene Kelly. I grew up in a small town in Illinois, near St. Louis, Mo. As a kid, Gene looked like a regular guy to me. I began taking tap dancing lessons as a teen. Less than a year later, I made my professional debut in the St. Louis Muny's world stage premiere production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's State Fair. It starred Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, directed by James Hammerstein, supervised by Richard Rodgers and choreographed by my 2nd inspiration, Tommy Tune. What a beginning! Everyone was so nice to me. It lead me to believe everyone in showbiz was nice. Lol.
3. When you look back on your career, what are you most proud of and what is something you wish you did differently? Probably that I've endured all this time in show biz and am busy still working. Besides the upcoming episodes of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, I just shot a commercial for Walgreens and recently a feature film comedy Love In Kilnerry as "Deputy Rory." I saw a rough cut of the film and it's hilarious.
Differently? I would have enjoyed doing some more musicals on Broadway. I had additional opportunities, but I was focused on different career directions at the time. I do believe we are always in our perfect place.
4. What do you like most about expressing your creativity through dance as opposed to another medium? Adam, you ask great questions. Movement is a special, non-verbal common language that dancers share. It was the first art form that appeared on the planet. I love the joyful, focused and spiritual feeling of the group experience, uniting together to create some beauty on this planet. A joining together of our minds, bodies and souls for a higher purpose.
5. You have appeared on numerous TV shows throughout your career including All My Children, Sex and the City and the upcoming season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. What can you tell us about your time filming on Sex and the City? That was fun! I auditioned for the role of the "Sexy Hunk" for an episode called La Douleur Exquise. Lol. Sounds deep, doesn't it? They wanted an actor who could deliver a few lines and club dance. We shot at the Barracuda Bar in Chelsea. When the costume supervisor Kevin Draves (who later co-designed costumes for Boobs! The Musical) brought my costume to me, it was a pair of briefs. My mind was racing. Luckily when I arrived on set, everyone had on underwear. It's a funny scene where "Stanford" (Willie Garson) goes to an underground club to hook up with a guy that he met on the internet. My lines were cut, but you can see me in the scene shaking my groove thing.
6. What are you looking forward to about your episode of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel coming out? What was it like to dance on that show? I'm interested to see how the various takes are edited together. It was hard work. I think we're in two episodes. Originally I was told it would be social dancing, so I thought, "well that sounds easy." I found out in morning rehearsal that we were doing very energetic swing dancing to a fast Benny Goodman song! We filmed sixteen hours a day for three consecutive days. I had several dancer friends there which made it a fun experience. And I made some new ones.
7. You also toured with two of my favorite artists, The Weather Girls (featuring Martha Wash) & Laura Branigan. Do you have any fun stories about working with them? I opened for The Weather Girls in LA at the well-known gay dance club Studio One, also in a sexy outfit. After they did their first song, the boys were yelling for me to return. I was sitting in my dressing room oblivious. The Weather Girls started yelling "where is that cute boy?" Security came and escorted me back to the stage. They sang another song and asked me to stand between them as they were bumping and grinding up against me with their hips. The crowd at Studio One went crazy.
8. What have you learned about yourself from being a dancer? Patience. Humility. Focus. Dedication. The importance of being the first one to extend love to others and not thinking about yourself.
9. You are also the producer and choreographer of the 2003 hit Off-Broadway show Boobs! The Musical. What was it like to wear the producing hat for this venture? I enjoy producing. But this one was tough. I worked 24 hours a day, seven days a week. I managed to keep it open for nearly a year. It was my doctorate's degree in producing. I learned a lot. I am very proud that it was a springboard for discovering some new talents, including Kristy Cates (Wicked) and Alena Watters (The Cher Show).
10. If you could dance with anyone, who would you choose? I've already enjoyed dancing with so many great ladies from ballet's Margot Fonteyn and Natalia Makarova to TV's Lorene Yarnell (Shields & Yarnell). I'll trust the universe on the next one.

Whether it's a long-awaited, or a spur of the moment, first time ever match between two current WWE stars, there isn't anything quite as exciting as seeing two Superstars lock horns for the very first time like we will see with Rollins and Balor. Of course, sometimes the match doesn't exactly live up to the hype, but, more often than not, it does.
WWE is hoping that everyone has forgotten about the Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton match that took place in 2002, as they're trying to bill "The Viper" vs. "The Beast" at this Sunday's SummerSlam match as a first time match. But, most fans know that isn't the case.
This list is going to feature matches that were truly first-ever encounters between two WWE stars and some of them matches never ended up happening again. So, without further ado, let's take a look at some of the biggest first time ever matches in WWE history!
15 Kevin Owens vs. John Cena (Elimination Chamber 2015)
Kevin Owens had one of the most impactful debuts in WWE history when he made his main roster debut in the middle of last year, as he started at the top of the roster by taking out John Cena, which led to a match between the two men at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view.
At the time, Owens was the NXT Champion, so no one really knew if this meant that KO would now be a full timer on the main roster. Furthermore, most predicted that he would end up getting beaten by Cena and everyone was shocked when that, in fact, didn't happen.
Of course, Owens' win at Elimination Chamber setup a series of rematches between the two men, and Owens never won another match against Cena. Since then, Owens hasn't been quite as hot, although he does have the potential to be the top heel in the WWE.
14 Dean Ambrose vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins (Battleground 2016)
The fact that this long awaited triple threat match took place at Battleground instead of SummerSlam is still a bit shocking. The likely reason for that is the WWE brand split, as WWE probably didn't want more than one brand vs. brand match at this year's big event in Brooklyn.
Some felt that the triple threat match between all three members of The Shield didn't quite live up to the hype. Of course, most were happy that Dean Ambrose actually ended up winning the match and, while the match itself was pretty good, it wasn't the all-time classic that we were expecting.
Given the fact that all three men still have long careers ahead of them, we'll probably see another triple threat match involving them. In fact, we wouldn't rule out the possibility of seeing it at a future WrestleMania. But, it probably won't happen again for a very long time.
13 Kane vs. The Undertaker (WrestleMania XIV)
The very first meeting between Kane and The Undertaker in the spring of 1998 was a huge deal. All of their subsequent meetings weren't nearly as big as their first, as Kane's character wasn't quite as strong coming out of WrestleMania XIV.
The match was built up over the course of a year, with Kane's debut famously taking place during the first ever Hell in a Cell match between Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker. It was one of the most awesome debuts in WWE history.
Even though both Undertaker and Kane were full timers following "The Big Red Machine's" debut, WWE held off on having the two men face off at house shows, so their meeting at WrestleMania XIV was truly their first and it took three Tombstones to keep Kane down for the 1, 2, 3.
12 Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker (In Your House 1997)
It's crazy to think that The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels only had five singles matches against each other during their illustrious WWE careers and the very first took place at the Ground Zero In Your House event.
Their first match wasn't nearly as big of a deal as their second match, which ended up being the aforementioned first ever Hell in a Cell match, which featured the debut of Kane. But their first match against one another was still a huge deal.
Of course, Michaels and Undertaker ended up facing each other three times in just a couple of months in 1997-1998, and they wouldn't face each other again for well over a decade, when they clashed at back to back WrestleManias. It's extremely likely that, had Michaels not been severely injured in early 1998, he and Undertaker probably would have faced each other well over ten times, as opposed to just five.
11 Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania 21)
If you had to pick the best match of WWE's "Ruthless Aggression" era, Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 21 has to be in the conversation. At the time, Angle was just entering his prime, where Michaels was at the tail end of his, so the timing of their first ever encounter was pretty perfect.
Shawn Michaels had just retired for the first time as Angle was entering professional wrestling, and when HBK finally did return to the ring in 2002, the two men were on separate brands, so it looked like we were never going to get the Angle vs. Michaels dream match. But, not only did we get it, it turned out to be one of the greatest matches in WWE history.
Also, another positive of the Angle vs. Michaels feud was that we got to see Kurt Angle perform his version of Michaels' theme song: "Sexy Kurt," which may have been better than the match itself!
10 Goldberg vs. The Rock (Backlash 2003)
When Goldberg made his highly anticipated WWE debut in the spring of 2003, he targeted The Rock, who, at the time, was making the transition into Hollywood, as his plan was to become a full time actor. Rock had just beaten Stone Cold Steve Austin the previous night and it looked like he was going to take another break from the ring, when Goldberg's music hit.
The Goldberg vs. Rock match at Backlash in 2003 was supposed to be the first of many matches between the two men. But, plans changed, as Goldberg became disgruntled with WWE and ended up leaving the company just one year after his debut.
The battle between the two men at Backlash wasn't the best match I've ever seen, but WWE accomplished what they needed to, as Goldberg defeated The Rock clean in the middle of the ring with his finish. However, they really dropped the ball with Goldberg shortly thereafter.
9 Hulk Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior (WrestleMania VI)
This was one of the biggest matches in WWE history and, at the time, it actually looked like The Ultimate Warrior was well on his way to taking Hulk Hogan's spot as the company's top babyface.
The match between Hogan and Warrior at WrestleMania VI is remembered as an all time classic, but in my opinion, the match doesn't hold up at all. It's full of rest holds and weird spots, such as both men hitting the ropes and running past each other several times, which led to nothing.
But, most times match quality doesn't have anything to do with how something is remembered. The fact is that, at the time, Hogan vs. Warrior was a massive deal, which fans were willing to pay top dollar to see. Unfortunately though, Warrior didn't end up living up to the hype, as he wasn't that great of a draw as WWE Champion, and WWE was forced to put Hogan back in the main event spot just a year later.
8 Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar (WrestleMania XX)
When Brock Lesnar debuted in WWE in 2002, the one thing I said to myself was, "it would be so cool to see him wrestle Goldberg," and when WWE set up the match in early 2004, I was pumped to see it. But, like most people who were excited for the match, I was massively let down by the performance of both men.
Goldberg vs. Lesnar may be the most disappointing match in WWE history, but despite that, we actually still want to see the rumored rematch between the two take place at WrestleMania 33 next year, because some believe that it'll be significantly better than the first, mostly because the two men won't be in the same position that they were in back in '04.
It's not like Goldberg vs. Lesnar two would be a 30-minute, all time classic. But it would be a 10 to 15-minute, intense, hard-hitting match, that would be remembered as one of the best matches on the show if it ever happens, and I can't say the same for their first encounter.
7 Triple H vs. CM Punk (Night of Champions 2011)
There was no one hotter in professional wrestling in 2011 than CM Punk was. It looked like Punk was on the verge of becoming his generation's Stone Cold Steve Austin, but that was sadly squashed by Triple H.
The two men were in the main event of the Night of Champions pay-per-view, as Triple H came out of retirement to take on CM Punk. The match only had one logical finish: CM Punk winning. But, strangely enough, that didn't happen and Punk was never quite as hot again.
The finish of this match was even more baffling when you consider the fact that Triple H went right back into retirement. But, I guess the lesson here is that, if you make fun of Triple H's wife and family leading up to a match, he'll have to get his revenge, even if that means that he'll have to bury the next potential megastar in the process.
6 John Cena vs. AJ Styles (Money in the Bank 2016)
John Cena vs. AJ Styles was a match that many thought they'd never see.
For the majority of his professional wrestling career, AJ Styles was the face of TNA Wrestling, while John Cena was the face of the WWE. Many believed that both men would stay put for the entirety of their respective careers, but then TNA started going down the tubes, which prompted Styles to leave for New Japan Pro Wrestling.
After a year in New Japan, Styles made his WWE debut at the Royal Rumble, and he received a massive ovation. The ovation even surprised Styles, who was unsure if the WWE fans would even know who he was.
After several battles with Chris Jericho, there was only one match that WWE fans wanted to see, and that was Cena vs. Styles. WWE wasted no time going to that match, as they had Styles confront Cena upon his return from injury.
The match itself was fantastic and we're expecting that their rematch at SummerSlam will be even better. Hopefully AJ picks up the win, signed most fans.
5 Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H (WrestleMania XXX)
Unlike with CM Punk, Triple H actually did the right thing in his match with Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania XXX, because if he didn't, the fans in attendance probably would have ended up leaving the building.
The match was pretty good, as most expected it to be. Of course, apart from Lesnar/Taker, WrestleMania XXX is best remembered for Daniel Bryan's WWE World Heavyweight Championship win which closed out the show. It was one of the best moments in WrestleMania history and it should've made Bryan's the company's next megastar. Sadly though, he was injured and was forced to give up his Title, and after a brief comeback a year later, he was forced to retire due to concussion issues.
WrestleMania XXX was a fantastic event, but it wouldn't have been remembered as fondly if Triple H would've beaten Daniel Bryan to kick off the show.
4 CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar (SummerSlam 2013)
This was probably the match that everyone wanted to see the most after Brock Lesnar returned to WWE in the spring of 2012, and the match certainly lived up to the hype, as it was by far the best match on the 2013 SummerSlam card.
It's well-known now that CM Punk wasn't happy about having to lose to a part timer in Lesnar, but it was absolutely the right call, especially because Lesnar was going to break The Undertaker's streak a little less than a year later.
This ended up being Punk's final high profile match before he decided to leave WWE in January of 2014 and even though history says that Punk will return to WWE, it's extremely likely that we'll never see Punk vs. Lesnar take place in a WWE ring ever again.
3 Shawn Michaels vs. Hulk Hogan (SummerSlam 2005)
The Hulk Hogan vs. Shawn Michaels match probably would have been a lot better than it actually was if it would've taken place ten years earlier, as Hogan was barely mobile at this point. But, despite that, it was still a huge deal when it happened, as the two men were the biggest names of their respective generations.
Of course, everybody remembers the match for Shawn Michaels' ridiculous, over the top bumps, which was his way of sticking it to Hogan for not wanting to put him over. The two men were supposed to have three matches together, with the rubber match taking place at a WrestleMania, but Hogan changed the deal at the last second, so Michaels' decided to make a mockery of the match.
While the match was far from the greatest match of Michaels' career, it is definitely one of the most entertaining matches that he's ever had because of his over the top performance.
2 The Rock vs. John Cena (WrestleMania XXVIII)
This match was nearly a decade in the making and, at one point, it looked like it was never going to happen, as The Rock had become the highest-grossing actor in Hollywood, which led many to believe that, if he were to return to WWE, he wouldn't wrestle.
Rock and Cena agreed to their first match the night after WrestleMania XXVII, which was met with a lukewarm response. Basically, they told the fans in Atlanta that they could've given them the long awaited dream match at that year's WrestleMania, but, instead, they were going to make them wait a full year to see it.
The match wasn't all that great, as Rock got tired pretty quickly. But, he still turned in an acceptable performance and, shockingly enough, he ended up defeating John Cena, which we would later learn was to setup the rematch between the two at WrestleMania 29.
1 Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock (WrestleMania X8)
This is another match that many believed that we'd never see, but in the spring of 2002, in one of the best moments in Raw history, Hulk Hogan and The Rock agreed to a match at WrestleMania X8.
If you mute your television while you watch Hogan vs. Rock, you'll probably think that the match stunk. But, when you turn the volume up, it'll come off as one of the greatest matches in WWE history. Of course, it wasn't the most technically sound match of all time, but, much like with Hogan vs. Warrior, it was a match between two of the biggest names in the industry.
The crowd ended up completely booing The Rock, which no one expected, including WWE, as they thought it would be more of a 50-50 crowd. But they were completely for Hogan, although they didn't completely trash the finish, which saw The Rock winning with The People's Elbow.

Specialized Vado 3.0 step thru
Specialized Vado 3.0 step thru
If you can characterize your life as on-the-go, busy, or not having enough time, we made a bike for you—the Women's Turbo Vado 3.0. It's made to accommodate busy lives that are always in movement, which is why we took our exclusive, award-winning pedal-assist technology and accelerated it into the future.
Beginning with the integrated Specialized 1.2 motor, the Vado proves itself as the ultimate city bike. It features a silently operating design with our Custom Rx Street tune that takes the output and makes it the most usable for the urban environment. Think of it this way: The more power you put out, the more power the motor puts out, and this makes accelerations from a standstill both quick and efficient. The belt driven motor is also smooth, silent, and free of annoying vibrations. Perfect.
For the Vado 3.0, we developed a custom Specialized U1-460 battery that seamlessly integrates into the frame, is lockable, and easily removable for simplified charging. With this battery, the Turbo Vado will deliver a pedal-assisted boost up to 71 miles in Economy mode, 30 miles in Sport mode, and 19 miles in Turbo mode. These estimates, of course, have some assumptions—the total rider and bike weight is 220 pounds, the terrain is flat with some inclines, and there is either no wind or a light breeze. In other words, with a top speed of 28mph, there's plenty of juice to take you to and from work, a trip to the grocery store, or even to that new café on the other side of the city.
We also developed a custom 2.2-inch smart computer that lets you view your battery level and toggle various ride metrics such as speed, distance, and time. You can also peruse these screens via the custom handlebar remote without ever removing your hands from the bars.
To top off all of the innovative features, we chose a worry-free spec on the Turbo Vado 3.0, so it features Shimano 10-speed components, hydraulic disc brakes, racks, and fenders.

[artist id="3061469"]Lady Gaga[/artist] may sing about looking for love, but that doesn't mean the pop superstar is ready to settle down just yet. But though she'd never ditch her incredibly successful career for a guy, she may someday like to find Mr. Right and have little Gagas running around.
"In eight to 10 years, I want to have babies for my dad to hold, grandkids. And I want to have a husband who loves and supports me, just the way anyone else does," Gaga, who recently released her album The Fame Monster, said in the January issue of Elle. "I would never leave my career for a man right now, and I would never follow a man around."
Gaga admits that her high-octane career sometimes leaves her a bit stressed. And her body has found an interesting way of dealing with it, which sort of leads back to that baby thing. "I get all the symptoms of a pregnant woman," she explained. "I get headaches, I get tired, I get blurred vision sometimes during a really intense session with the Haus [of Gaga]."
But long before she was a sensation, Gaga was a working girl in New York, busy waiting tables. Unsurprisingly, the confident diva says that she was as good at waitressing as she is at making music. "I was really good at it. I always got big tips. I always wore heels to work," she said. "I told everybody stories, and for customers on dates, I kept it romantic. It's kind of like performing."
These days, with that life far behind her, the singer says that she's focused on trying to get her point across in her edgy pop music. "I feel that if I can show my demise artistically to the public, I can somehow cure my own legend," she explained, alluding to her now infamous VMA performance. "I can show you so you're not looking for it. I'm dying for you on domestic television — here's what it looks like, so no one has to wonder."
As for her aesthetic, Gaga explains that she doesn't want to be the sexy, blond pop star, like women in the past. She wants to be her own creation, even if that means having to stand up for herself to make it happen. "My album covers are not sexual at all, which was an issue at my record label. I fought for months, and I cried at meetings. They didn't think the photos were commercial enough. ... The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself."

Anavar Reviews
Anavar is the a lot more frequently understood name for Oxandrolone, is a moderate Steroid with reduced to no negative effects, consequently it is a popular selection among beginners. First produced in the very early 60's by Phizer (originally called Searle), Anavar was used to assist with building and also maintain less mass for individuals struggling with ailments which create catabolic effects on the body, fight infections, injury healing and also for individuals suffering from Osteoporosis. Phizer (referred to as Searle at that time) stopped generating Anavar in 1989 primarily due to the fact that professional athletes as well as bodybuilders had started abusing this material.
Anavar is among the most expensive steroids available today, and due to it being so mild a greater dose is normally called for a lot more male professional athletes which can be extremely expensive. Prior to underground labs started generating Anavar and also the only option was to get pharmaceutical quality you could possibly have expected to pay a few grand for a good cycle. Nowadays although still expensive when as compared to steroids such as Dianabol or Winstrol you can do a cycle.
Nevertheless, if Anavar is used off-season, any kind of weight you obtain will be simply lean tissue because Anavar doesn't aromatize. In addition, it does advertise a substantial rise in stamina although this will not be accompanied with a boost in mass. Bear in mind that any kind of benefit acquired throughout a bulking cycle will certainly require substantial amounts of the steroid, as well as as a result of the expense of Anavar for sale online, it does not truly make good sense to try utilizing it for expanding.

Uses of Anavar
The analysis of the readily available information showed substantial benefits (p<0.05) when oxandrolone was used in contrast with the control group (placebo or otherwise). This meant lower loss of corporal mass, minimal nitrogen loss, and much shorter contributor area recovery time.
Together with the other advantages it provides, anavar is a quite risk-free steroid to take if the proper biking approaches are adhered to as well as Blog post Cycle Therapy (PCT) is planned. In spite of that it is so moderate, it increases toughness as well as quality muscular tissue mass. For bulking cycles, it is not the most effective selection, as you will not get any kind of puffy mass.
Anavar is a non-aromatizing steroid, as well as for that reason it does not convert to estrogen. In easy terms, when used in moderate doses, without other steroids mixed in, no ancillary medicines (aromatase inhibitors or SERMS) are required for estrogen control. Given that it is known to be among the least androgenic steroids available, it has a very little result on your natural testosterone production.
Thanks to the low androgenic activity, anavar does not present acne or hair loss troubles like other anabolic steroids. Because of that, it is an excellent device for competition prep, in addition to for the reducing cycles.
One more positive effect seen by the professional athletes who utilize anavar, is its wonderful ability for fat decrease. Although it is important to lay out that although it adds to fat loss (especially in the tummy area), anavar should not be made use of as an entertainment weight loss medication.

Advantages of Anavar
Criterion male performance Anavar dosages could vary significantly. For sports enhancement 20-30mg per day will certainly give a boost, yet most will be much better with 40-50mg each day. 50mg daily agrees with for reducing cycles with 80mg being extremely reliable yet raising the danger of negative effects, specifically cholesterol associated. With 50-80mg per day being one of the most usual needed dosage, however, this could obtain very expensive. Anavar cycles are usually safe in the 6-8 week array.
Criterion women performance Anavar doses will normally fall in the 5-10mg each day array with many all ladies tolerating 10mg daily very well. If more is preferred as well as a positive encounter was delighted in with 10mg daily, 15mg daily can be attempted the following walk around. Nonetheless, bear in mind each increase in application boosts the risk of virilization. Those who supplement with 20mg each day, especially those who supplement with more than 20mg each day almost assure some level of virilization. A lot of ladies will never have a have to go above 10mg daily. Anavar cycles are usually risk-free in the 6-8 week array.

Negative effects of Anavar
Anadrol (Oxandrolone) in bodybuilding is appropriate for those having high blood pressure or for those susceptible to gynecomastia of their thymus glands when making use of stronger androgenic steroids. For these athletes a pile containing Oxandrolone and also Deca Durabolin is an excellent alternative. This pile is likewise proper for those having symptoms of inadequate health and wellness when aiming to construct muscle mass using Testosterone, Anadrol, or Dianabol (D-Bol). It is suggested that professional athletes over forty years of age usage Oxandrolone.
An additional welcome attribute of Oxandrolone is that even when taken at very high dosages, it doesn't promote the natural manufacturing of testosterone. It doesn't appear to affect the hypothalamo-hypophysial testicular axis adversely. When taking Oxandrolone, unlike when using most various other anabolic steroids, the testes write a signal to the hypothalamus to not reduce or stop the release of the Gonadotropin Releasing Hormonal agent (GnRH) as well as the Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone (LHRH).
Oxandrolone has been revealed to combine well with Anadrol, which will certainly not aromatize in dosages up to 240mg a day and will only a little affect hormonal agent production. If you take 25mg a day of Oxandrolone with 280mg of Anadrol you will see great lead to terms of stamina gains. In those brand-new to taking steroids there ought to be gains in muscle mass without too much liquid retention and no significant effects on the production of testosterone.

Anavar is a very preferred anabolic steroid for several apparent factors, however it is likewise known as being among one of the most expensive anabolic steroids anybody agrees to purchase. Drug grade and also underground (UGL) grade Oxandrolone are both abundant on the black market for people to acquire, but price distinctions (and the concern of imitation and also fake items) become an issue. There are additionally massive variations in exactly how completion items exist (as an example, Anavar tablet computers could range anywhere from 2.5 mg each tablet all the way as much as 50mg tablets, and the amount of tablets each box or bottle differ greatly also).
Making use of a guideline requirement of 10mg tablet computers, we could effectively determine the market prices of Anavar in between underground as well as pharmaceutical top quality items. A package deal of 60 tablet computers of pharmaceutical grade Anavar dosed at 10mg per tablet can run anywhere from $70 – $150. Underground Var item under all the same conditions (60 tablet computer whole lot, 10mg each tablet focus) can run anywhere from $60 – $180. When you get anavar prices could also fluctuate due to which type of source is made use of (in-person vs. internet sources, etc.) and also the currency exchange rate of moneys at the time of acquisition, as underground market costs are greatly impacted by these.
Since the high cost of Anavar is typically a concern, before acquiring you might need to know a couple of things. For ladies Anavar really is the excellent steroid to use for any type of cycle. But for males, that's not the situation. One more consideration is the quality of the Anavar since this could make a huge difference in determining if your tough made money is being invested intelligently.

How to Be a Good Father
Understanding how to be a good father is not so different from understanding how to be a good human being. Your willingness to read about this subject, itself indicates that you are ready to do, whatever it takes to be one. Being a good father is indeed a tough job, but the most beautiful, incomparable, and satisfying one you could ever do. Read on and get some insight, from a son's perspective.
Omkar Phatak
Firstly, for those of you, on the brink of becoming a father, congratulations are in order and those of you who wish to be better fathers, I wish you all the very best. The lesson of being a good father, is synonymous with being a responsible human being.
Preparing for fatherhood is a balancing act, that is unparalleled with anything you will ever do in life. It is being tender, yet tough at times, being protective without smothering your child, being a good mentor, without trying to take control, letting them be independent, yet being there for them. As you can see, it is not going to be easy. Having the responsibility of an entire person upon you, is never going to be easy for you or your wife.
To be a good father is a journey in self-discovery and the greatest lesson of your life. It is an opportunity to pass on all that is good in you and see a tender new life blossoming under your care. You are going to learn more from your child, than you learned from anybody else ever.
You have been on the other side before, that is, you have been a son. Now, it is time for a role reversal and you are a father now. It is time to unlearn a lot and learn a lot more along the way. Do not blindly give your children, the same treatment, just because you got the same from your mother and father. Recognize the good points of what they did and also identify the bad parts. Pass on whatever good there was and I am sure there was a lot. Forget and forgive the bad parts, if there were any. Make sure that you do not repeat them with your children.
As you face your own difficulties of bringing up your own child, you will be able to appreciate your father and mother, even more, for how they put up with you.
Being the Best Father
Unconditional Love...
Unconditional love is the prime ingredient for being a good father. You do not have to work to bring this out, it's always there in you, just let it flow out. Do not withhold love under a false exterior of appearing to be tough or being a man. Let your child feel loved.
It is very essential that your child learns how to take in love and give out love. If he is deprived of that, it will create problems for him later, when he is connecting with the world outside. When a child grows up, seeing and feeling the love between you and your wife, he will learn to love too.
Enjoy the process of Being a Father
Enjoy the process of nurturing a new personality and seeing a new person take shape. You have to be a child yourself again, to connect with your child. See the world anew, through his or her eyes and see your own perceptions change. Right from changing nappies to dropping children to school, you will relive your entire childhood.
Be your child's friend and his protector. There is something very satisfying in being a father. That feeling, you can only understand, when you see your child for the first time. It is scary and wonderful at the same time. So, enjoy the process of bringing up your child.
Be Responsible and Share Responsibility
Understand the immense responsibility you have on your shoulder as a father. Do not run away from it. Embrace it and grow with it. It is time to shed your careless ways and realize that one more person depends on you now. Whatever you and your wife do, your child is top priority. Think twice before taking rash decisions. In short, remember that you have to put your children before you.
A child's mind is like clay. It is very impressionable and every action of yours around him or her, is going to influence the formation of his or her psyche. A new personality is taking shape in front of you, so be careful about how you shape it. Do things in such a way that there is no doubt in the mind of the child, about what is the right thing to do.
Share responsibilities with your wife. Plan things together. Be conscious about the health concerns of your child.
Be There For Your Child
Work is no excuse for not being there, when your child needs you. What use is the money you earn, when the people who you earn it for, are deprived of your presence, when they need it. It's all about priorities in life. Once you marry and have your child, you must think of them first.
Yes, it is important to earn material comforts for your child. However, just buying big and costly toys is not your only responsibility as a father. A toy can be hugged but it cannot hug back. For a child, people are more important than having things. Remember that, or else do not complain when the child grows up to be insensitive.
Ensure Good Education and Moral Conduct
Good values and good education are the greatest gifts you can give a child. Ensure that he gets the best schooling possible. Teach him through example about how lying is wrong, how hurting people is wrong, and how to respect people. The child, especially a son needs to learn to respect women. The lessons for that will be taken from how you treat your wife, your daughters, and your mother.
Be stern and criticize your child, when he does something wrong, but do so in private. Do not insult him to the point where he or she cannot overcome the guilt. Teach your child, that it's okay to make mistakes, but do not repeat them.
Encourage Curiosity and Independent Thinking
Obedience in a child is a virtue, but not meekness and conformism. Encourage curiosity and independent thinking. Explain things to children, as logically as possible. Do not reinforce false beliefs. Encourage reading and playing sports.
Let There Be Conversation
Talk to your child and create an atmosphere, where he or she can feel free to discuss problems. Let him or her question your methods and thinking. Children are the most honest critics and you will get a lot of insight from them, I am sure. Treat their opinions with respect and do not ridicule them. Teach him to reason things out. This may iron out some of the stubbornness in them.
Spend Quality Time
Go on a hike or camping with your child and show him the wonders of nature. No matter, how busy a schedule, let there be a large portion of your time, that is exclusively devoted to your child. Having fun is an essential part of growth in a child's life. Have fun together as a family and you will stay a family.
Accept Your Mistakes
When you expect frankness from a child and expect him to own up his own mistakes, you must do the same. A child can very easily spot double standards. They are like mirrors. So, when you are mistaken regarding something and the child points it out to you, accept it. This is very important. When a child sees honesty, he or she reciprocates it.
You Can Be Tough and Firm Without Being Violent
There are bound to be situations, where you may have to be strict and stern, when the child is unreasonable. Reprimand him with straightforward words, when you find something unacceptable and make it crystal clear that it should not be repeated and tell him the consequences of his actions. Beating a child never brings out good results in short or long term. Never raise your hand on a child.
Do Not Compare Between Your Children
Do not compare the abilities of your children and pit them against each other. Teach them the importance of sharing and respecting each other, for what they are. Be fair with children and encourage bonding between them.
Mentoring Without Taking Control
You cannot decide the destiny of your child. Every child is different and comes with inborn gifts. Do not try to mold him in your image and do not expect him to trace your footsteps. Nurture your child and provide all the opportunities you can. Put the pros and cons in front of a child and leave the decision up to him or her. Do not force your child into something, when you realize that it's not conducive to his or her inborn talents. Do not kill your child's dreams, but embrace and nurture them. Let the child know that you are always there behind him, for support. Do not use the carrot and stick practice with children. So mentor them, but do not manipulate and control them.
Protect But Do Not Smother With Care
Help your children and take care of them, but do not care so much, that they are unable to stand without you. Encourage self-reliance and resourcefulness in a child. Take pride in doing things on your own and your child will learn that too.
Small Trees Cannot Grow in a Big Tree's Shade
Let the child bloom into his own personality. Give him opportunities to test his strength in the real world. Let him learn to take his decisions on his own. Trust him with jobs and give him responsibility and I am sure, he won't be wanting, in shouldering it. This will build up self-esteem in your child.
Don't Burden Your Child with your Own Unreasonable Expectations
Do not burden children with unreasonable expectations. This puts undue pressure on them. Encourage them to find themselves and be themselves, which is more important.
Never Give Up on Them
Things may go wrong and the child may land himself into trouble. Never give up on him or her. Be there to encourage and be his or her source of confidence and strength. Believe and trust in him to pull out of whatever trouble he or she has gotten into. Do not ignore your children ever.
Let Your Relationship Evolve With Time
As the child grows up to adulthood, be his friend, philosopher, and guide. Let your relationship evolve with time and be transformed into friendship. Let the child benefit from your experience and wisdom and let yourself benefit from the freshness of his spirit.
There is no perfect way to become a good father and life is perhaps the best teacher you can have. No matter what happens, do not let your ego come in the way of reaching out to your children.
You will realize how good a father you were one day, when your son or daughter will beat you at your own game and surprise you with his or her profundity. What you sow, you reap. Nothing can be more satisfying, than seeing your son or daughter fulfill your most ambitious dreams, but it's more satisfying to bring up good human beings. One day, you will realize that it was not you who carried the child, it was the child who carried you.

T-Mobile US (NASDAQ:TMUS) is still adding subscribers faster than any of its major rivals. What's more, the third quarter report this week showed that these growth tactics can deliver cash profits at the same time.
The raw numbers
YoY Growth
$7.85 billion
$7.35 billion
Adjusted EBITDA income
$1.91 billion
$1.35 billion
Swing to profit
What happened with T-Mobile this quarter?
The Magenta network continued a roughly two-year streak of strong subscriber additions, and the growing revenue is starting to pay dividends on the bottom line.
- T-Mobile added a total of 2.3 million net new subscribers in the third quarter, including 843,000 new accounts in the coveted category of postpaid branded phone customers.
- By comparison, Verizon Communications added 1.3 million wireless subscribers and roughly 500,000 postpaid phone customers in the same period. AT&T brought in 2.5 million total net addsbut ended up losing postpaid phone subscribers faster than it could sign up new ones.
- The strong EBITDA increase rested mainly on improved operating income and stable cash management adjustments.
T-Mobile shies away from providing earnings and revenue guidance for upcoming quarters or fiscal years. T-Mobile prefers to refocus your attention on a different set of metrics.
- First and foremost, the company raised its target for customer additions for the third time this year. The old guidance pointed to roughly 3.7 million net new subscribers going Magenta in 2015 -- the new goal centers on 4.0 million.
- Management had previously set a full-year EBITDA profit target at approximately $7 billion, and capital expenses were expected to land at roughly $4.55 billion for the full fiscal year. Based on this quarter's results and ongoing business trends, T-Mobile simply left these targets unchanged.
- Backing out the results achieved through the first three quarters,meeting those full-year targets would require adjusted EBITDA profits of roughly $1.9 billion in the fourth quarter alongside $1.3 billion in capital expenses.
- Putting those calculated quarterly targets into perspective, T-Mobile delivered EBITDA profits of $1.75 billion in last year's fourth quarter while spending $1.3 billion on capital improvements and maintenance.
What management had to say
In the press release, T-Mobile CEO John Legere underscored the long-running trend of solid subscriber additions. Then he boiled the quarter down to a simple sound bite: "Our momentum is strong and our incredible customer growth is translating directly into solid financial growth which makes it crystal clear that putting customers first is just good business."
You can't really argue with any of these points. Put the customer first, and the rest will follow. That's what T-Mobile is doing these days, and the results speak for themselves.
Yes, that customer focus even leads to increased profits along the way. T-Mobile is not the first company to ever figure this out, but Legere is following that script closer than most modern business leaders do.
Looking ahead
John Legere's playbook is full of risky and expensive gambits. The JUMP! handset upgrade plan, for example, may be bringing in a ton of satisfied customers, but it also reduced the short-term device revenues almost as quickly as the service sales rose.
But in the end, the company is padding its top line while also delivering positive cash flows and EBITDA profits. Money talks, and Legere is making it. Investors sure aren't complaining, since T-Mobile has a tendency to crush the market while Ma Bell and Big Red are having trouble just keeping up:

Alison Berkley: The Princess's Palate
Just yesterday, I'm walking down the steep hill in front of our apartment with this enormous bag of laundry trying not to roll my ankle in my platform flip-flops.I'm sort of self-conscious, hoping no one drives by and sees me dressed in sweats with my hair in two messy braids lugging this industrial-sized bottle of generic detergent from Costco, pairs of torn underwear and padded bras spilling out of the top of the hamper bag. I'm feeling very house-frau, even though I'm not exactly sure what that means. The whole coin-operated laundry thing is just so not what I had in mind. Having to save quarters only to have the contents of my underwear drawer and disgusting sweat-soaked yoga wardrobe commingling with other people's is a far cry from the maid service I'd envisioned for myself since the age of three. I guess it's a good thing I am a "freelancer," (i.e. stay-at-home dog mom), so I can at least get into the laundry room in the middle of the day when all the machines are open.I insert almost 10 dollars in quarters and wash out the laundry detergent cup the way Ryan showed me so it doesn't get all mucked up. And I realize this is one of those moments when I feel a little disoriented in my own life, if only because it's everything and nothing I expected it to be.Outside the laundry room, the Browns have parked their Suburban so they can load up stuff for their daughter Teal, who is heading out to California in a few days to go to graduate school. I have to walk through the weeds to get around it.Teal and I met a few years ago and became close friends through our exes, who were best friends. We hung out a lot in those days, even traveled to Hawaii together, went to the spa while the boys were playing golf, went for walks on the beach and that sort of thing. It was her mother, in fact, who once told me that if I didn't go to New York at some point in my life, I would never really know what it means to be a real writer. She said the only way you can ever truly know is to be stacked up against the best. I politely disagreed, arguing that not being in New York is precisely what gave me an edge in my career as a journalist, being in places where all those writers engaged in the rat race were not.It was one of those conversations that haunted me, and more than once I revisited that idea, that maybe my life would be different if I went there. Did something different. Tried harder. Then I realized that this idea of "somewhere else" pretty much occupied the entire decade of my 20s as I moved from this place to that, thinking it would be different when I got there. But it never was.The irony of the Teal story is even though she's always been a good friend we've lost touch since I moved in next door to her parents. It's odd that I never run into Teal but I see her parents everywhere I go, around the complex, in town, and between the complex and town. I haven't found the gumption to approach them and remind them of who I am because I thought it would sound strange to say, "Hi, I'm a good friend of your daughter's, but we haven't really seen much of each other since I moved in with your maintenance guy."The truth is I've been unapologetic about indulging myself in this relationship that I've waited so long for, and let go of various friends and acquaintances as a result. I'll admit there are times when that's startling, when I realize no one has called me or e-mailed me for days and the people in my daily life have been whittled down the way your wardrobe is when you pack your suitcase. You only take with you what you think you need. That's not to say I've forgotten that tulle camisole with the sequins or the rabbit fur shawl, I just don't feel like I need them, at least not every single day.Still it makes me question who I was then and who I am now. For my entire adult life, I've always been striving toward something, this idea of what I wanted my life to be, whether it was to be thinner or prettier or more fit or to travel or to move to another place and try on another identity. Now, for the first time, I've arrived in a place where I have everything I want. I'm finding myself living in the moment instead of always hoping or planning what might happen next. So now that I'm content, where does that leave me? If dreams bridge the gap between reality and our ideas about our reality, I have to ask myself, what are my dreams? I think we all sometimes are afraid to ask that question, just in case we've fallen short.The answer came when I was packing up my condo to move in with Ryan and found an old scrapbook with a drawing my brother had done when he was 10 years old of a Jeep Wrangler with patches on the tires. On it he wrote, "Our dream car."And I realized, since that family ski trip to Snowmass when I was a kid, all I ever wanted (other than a maid, a pinball machine, a trampoline and an in-ground pool) was to live in Aspen and drive a Jeep. Maybe I never was all that ambitious, but at least I can say that my dreams really did come true.
The Princess would like to wish Teal all the best in Cali. Send your love to email@example.com

Choosing Story Themes
First we collected the images that established our lexicon. This is a seeing exercise. What do we see? What do others see? What happens when we look together?
Next we sorted them into stories. Another way to look at this exercise is the old practice of mood boards. This is a saying exercise. What are we saying? What do we want to say? These are emergent patterns that don't resemble the categories established with the shooting script. Instead they are articulations of what we prefer, what speaks to us, what we want to curate and assemble into a set of insights that will inform our criteria and features of our interventions.
Some assets fit into more than one story, and some assets don't fit into any. Each asset is still relevant and meaningful, and can be returned to throughout the iteration process to develop into new stories.
Assembling a Story
A story is assembled out of a series of creative choices that result in a complete picture. We make them intentionally to communicate one complete idea that can be interpreted by different people in different ways. In making these creative decision we negotiate and discover points of convergent and divergent understanding between us, the ones creating the story. Creating a story is both a process of discovery and the creation of a statement that we will rely on as we build our ideas into proposals then interventions.
What ingredients do we need to tell this story?
- still images
- create or curate?
- capture or compose?
- sounds
- written words
- spoken words
- moving images
How do we assemble the ingredients?
- in an order that begins one way and ends another - a change
- in a collection of moments
- in one moment
How do we refer to ourselves?
- We
How do we refer to others?
- You
- Them
What happens in this story?
- describe whats happening internally
- describe what's happening externally
- make a proposal
- make a claim

A major new survey from the Dept of Business, Innovation and Skills has given a compelling insight into the state of the SME nation.
The headlines from the survey show an SME sector committed to innovation, confident enough to continue hiring staff, and increasingly interested in using digital channels to sell to customers, promote their business and train staff.
Sixty-nine per cent of SME employers said they aimed to grow the sales of their businesses over the next three years, with a further 26% of SME employers expected to employ more people in 12 months' time.
Looking longer term, it seems that a large proportion of SME owners believe strongly in the prospects for growth. "In terms of planned growth-related activities over the next three years," the research says, "70% of SME employers planned to increase the skills of their workforce, 49% planned to introduce new working practices, 47% planned to develop and launch new products or services, 44% planned to increase the leadership capability of managers, and 40% planned to invest in premises, machinery or other types of capital investment. Compared with SBS 2014, the proportion planning capital investment decreased by seven percentage points."
However, it's not all positive. There still remain significant obstacles to success. The survey shows that the main challenges were competition (49%), regulations/red tape (49%), taxation (43%), late payment (33%) and staff recruitment/skills (32%).
Additional key findings include:
- Twenty-four per cent of SME employers employed more people than they had 12 months previously. 66% employed the same number of people, and 10% fewer.
- Sectors that were more likely than average to have increased employment levels were information/communications (31%), manufacturing (29%), financial/real estate, professional/scientific, and administrative services (all 28% t).
- Thirty-eight per cent of SME employers had greater turnover (value of sales) than a year previously
- Forty-five per cent of SME employers expected turnover to increase in the next 12 months, 43 per cent thought it would remain roughly the same and eight per cent thought it would be less
- Overall, 50 per cent of SME employers had innovated in the last three years, be this the introduction of new or significantly improved goods or services, or the introduction of new or significantly improved processes. Forty-three per cent of SME employers had introduced new or significantly improved goods or services in the last three years (22% goods, 36% services). Twenty-five per cent had introduced new or significantly improved processes in the last three years.
- The area of skills and training is a perennial concern, and the SBS offers some contradictory trends. Encouragingly 55% of SME employers had arranged or funded training or development for staff in the last 12 months (41% off-the-job, 44 per cent on-the-job). However, compared with SBS 2014, that means slightly less training overall (down two percentage points) less off-the-job training (down five percentage points), and more on-the-job training (up four percentage points).
- Eighty-three per cent of SME employers were digitally engaged, meaning that they had a website, used a third party website such as Amazon, Etsy or Ebay, or have their own social media profile.
Commenting on the findings, Small Business Minister Anna Soubry said, "This survey shines a light on the small businesses that drive our economy and employ millions of people across the country – and it's good news that small firms continue to employ more people. A strong economy underpins the success of our small businesses which is why this government continues to take the difficult decisions needed to keep our economy and businesses strong."
Meanwhile, Mike Cherry, National Chairman for the Federation of Small Businesses, said the government needed to do more to tackle obstacles to growth. "Today's survey provides an interesting snapshot of the small business landscape in the UK. There are many positives to be taken from the findings, including high levels of innovation and turnover growth among small and medium-sized firms.
"Yet the survey highlights a number of all-too-familiar barriers that are acting as a drag on business growth. Key obstacles include regulation, taxation, late payment and finding staff with the right skills – issues that come up time and time again in our own surveys, and must be prioritised by Government if smaller firms are to achieve their full economic potential.
"While it is encouraging to see that a quarter of smaller employers expect to employ more people in 12 months time, this figure is six per cent lower than the equivalent figure in the 2014 survey. This fall in hiring intentions reflects declining confidence levels among many small businesses, amid an ongoing period of economic uncertainty both at home and abroad and a raft of policy challenges that came into effect in early 2016.
"Equally concerning is the fact that the percentage of small businesses that export has remained constant since the 2012 survey, suggesting that Government needs to redouble its efforts to get more firms trading overseas if it is to have any chance of meeting its ambitious export targets."

What parts of their uncomfortable associations should universities remember, and how? Around the world, institutions of higher learning are confronting what to do with symbols of their ties to slavery, colonialism, racism, and other projects antithetical to their values. For years, Berkeley Law has faced protests for its employment of Professor John Yoo, a principal author of the "Torture Memos" of the Bush Administration. The school's exhibit of paintings by Fernando Botero of prisoner abuse by US soldiers at Abu Ghraib has communicated an institutional rebuke to the decision of the United States to rewrite the foundational norms of the rule of law in the pursuit of national security after 9/11.
However, the school is considering removing the paintings, which raises questions of memory heuristics: why the paintings are there at all, what they communicate about the past, and whether the past is worthy of commemoration. The Berkeley case offers insights into how and why debates about symbolic representations are contested moments aimed to shape institutional identity and values.

Higher education subscription
The majority of our funding comes from the UK HE and FE funding bodies, with a contribution from higher education institutions through a subscription.
Your institution's subscription will give you access to a package of services from across Jisc.
- Research and development will continue to be fully funded by the funding bodies
- The funding bodies will also provide significant and additional capital investment.
We will contact your institution directly in the spring each year to outline its exact contribution, which is based on student numbers and income. We appreciate you need these costs to assist your budget planning and will aim to get them to you as soon as possible.
How we calculate each HE institution's contribution
The model for calculating how the charges are shared between HE institutions reflect the value of Jisc to different types of institution.
The model is the same in all parts of the UK. In the example below an English institution is used for illustrative purposes only.
How HE institution contributions differ by country
The UK HE funding bodies contribute the majority (at least 75%) of the cost required to deliver our core package of services to HE institutions. The amount that each funding body contributes differs because of the particular funding context in their country.
HE institutions contribute the remainder, based on the formula detailed above.
Though contributions differ by country - the included services are the same for all HE members.
Invoicing and expected costs
Invoice timing for the Jisc subscription
We will invoice HEIs for their subscription fee in the autumn of each year.
Invoices for optional services (those outside of the Jisc subscription)
Some optional services are VAT exempt for members of the VAT-exempt cost sharing group. For those services where we have to charge VAT - you will be invoiced by a Jisc subsidiary company. In these circumstances you may receive an invoice from Jisc Services Limited.
My institution needs to budget for the costs of Jisc's optional services during the next financial year. Can the current charges excluding VAT be taken as a reasonable indicator of the charges for the subsequent year?In general we hope that the future base cost of optional chargeable services will be reasonably similar to current levels. However, many of the Jisc Group's services (and particularly for digital content delivered by Jisc Collections) are procured from external third party suppliers - so if the Jisc Group itself receives higher input costs from external suppliers we will need to pass on these increased costs.

Actor Adil Hussain says even though he has played the main hero in several regional and international projects, he was surprised when Chandra Prakash Dwivedi approached him to play the lead in his upcoming Bollywood film Zed Plus.
The 51-year-old actor said he asked the filmmaker several times if he was sure about casting him as the face of the movie as he does not have much market value.
"When I was approached for the lead role, I was surprised as I don't have a market value. I do have a very strong following but very few. I was not confident and I asked Dwivediji, 'Are you sure you want to take me in the film?' He said the story is very interesting and we will find a way to sell it.
"He asked me not to worry about it and that is when I felt confident and told him that
as long as you want me, I would love to do it," Hussain told PTI.
However, the actor from Assam, who has starred in films like Ishqiya, English Vinglish, Life of Pi and Lootera among others, said he is not trying to make any statement to other directors by doing a lead role.
"This is my first lead role in a Bollywood film. But I have done so many films as a lead which run in theatres in Europe and also in India, but without any fanfare in terms of its release. My job is to act and the job of a filmmaker is to find actors who they think are competent for a genre. I don't have to prove anything. I think the film will prove something if it does well at the box office," he said.

Theresa Chromati
Theresa Chromati is a Guyanese American multimedia artist born in Baltimore, Maryland. Chromati explores black women as idealized figures that embrace empowering identifications of full figured women adorned with whimsical protective armor such as face masks, pussy lips, and protruding chest keloids referencing diversity of self-identity, ownership, body manipulation, and as an act of self preservation. The artist has begun to incorporate "electrical outlets" as objects to portray black women as powerful sources of energy, yet very vulnerable and over exposed to intrusion, energy draining, or "plugging in".
Rotating between digital and analogue media, Chromati's environments take place in an alternate universe often accompanied by layered audio melodic soundscapes. Graphic elements reminiscent of checkerboard tiles are placed against grand arches that create royal backdrops and mysterious doorways which suggest an escape for women. Chromati emphasizes subtle gestures of intimacy within familial, romantic, and congenial relationships. As well as looking into a spectrum of experiences that exist for women within public and private spaces, exceeding the limitations traditionally imposed on them.
Chromati often pulls references from her mother's, aunties, and neighbors that she experienced during her adolescent years in Baltimore City by focusing on the various nuances of communication within partnerships and black women as community. Her work has most recently been displayed at the Untitled Art Fair, Miami and featured on Art News, i-D, Cool Hunting, and in the Spring issue 2018 of Juxtapoz Magazine. She received her BFA from Pratt Institute and is currently working in her studio located in Bedstuy, Brooklyn.
