For more than a decade, Criss Angel has dominated the world of magic as the biggest name on the planet. From his role as star, creator, executive producer and director of the most successful magic television series of all time, Criss Angel MINDFREAK on A&E Network, to his #1 best-selling Las Vegas stage shows Criss Angel BeLIEve and Criss Angel MINDFREAK LIVE! (in partnership with Cirque du Soleil® and MGM Resorts), to countless critically acclaimed television specials and series, best-selling books, top-grossing retail products, music CDs and more, Angel is the most influential and imitated magician of the modern era. Hailing spectacular reviews from outlets such as Bloomberg Businessweek, who called him "the biggest name in Las Vegas magic," Angel proves time and time again that he is a true force to be reckoned with.
His hit series MINDFREAK on A&E is the most successful magic show in television history, resulting in more hours of magic during primetime than any other magic show ever. The series continues to be viewed regularly by more than 100 million viewers in over 90 countries. According to police in Clearwater, Florida, the live broadcast of the show's "Building Implosion" episode drew approximately 50,000 people to the venue, resulting in the largest crowd ever for any magician, rivaling Houdini. "Criss is the Best, THE BEST," said Oprah Winfrey.
Angel's next series, Criss Angel BeLIEve, premiered on Spike on October 15, 2013 as Spike TV's most-watched original series premiere in over 18 months. In November 2013 Endemol, the world's largest independent production and distribution company, announced that it had acquired the international television distribution rights (outside of North America) to the series, and the show is now seen in over 100 countries worldwide.
Back by popular demand, Angel made another appearance on A&E in October 2016. The network announced a one-hour Halloween special which aired on Oct. 12. The fast-paced television event contained over 30 demonstrations.
In late 2014, Angel unveiled his touring production — featuring his first performances outside of Las Vegas in more than six years — with MINDFREAK® Live! The show's premiere run of 18 shows were a huge success, selling out one month prior to opening. In 2017 the touring show made its international debut in Buenos Aires, Argentina for four dates at the famous Gran Rex Theater.
2015 saw the launch of a second touring show, written and directed by Criss: The SUPERNATURALISTS™, featuring 9 mind-blowing magicians that destroy reality and revolutionize the live magic ensemble experience. Having sold 40,000 tickets in just one location — inits premiere four-week engagement at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut — The Supernaturalists™ initial run was the most successful, record-breaking launch of ANY ensemble magic show in history and a critically acclaimed smash which reached more than 251,250,640 people via global media over the course of its opening weekend. Angel's objective with The SUPERNATURALISTS is simple; while there are other ensemble shows out there, performing many of the same illusions that have been around for years, his goal is to redefine magic touring. Criss scoured the globe for the very best performers, each in their respected disciplines, and the lineup is truly historic. The illusions are not only original, but revolutionary.
Criss Angel RAW – The Mindfreak Unplugged, Criss' third and most recent touring production, debuted in January of 2018 with sold-out shows in nine cities. RAW is a theatrical experience unlike any seen before; bringing Angel's famous sleight of hand street magic, mentalism, and even some of his most iconic illusions to life – all performed in an intimate, raw setting. This extraordinary evening of magic unplugged features Criss and some of his amazing friends with a stripped-down purity that's in-your-face and guaranteed to blow your mind.
For years, Criss Angel BeLIEve was hailed as the #1 best-selling magic show in Las Vegas (Extra), generating $150 million in revenue in 2010 as reported by Newsweek.Following the show's 7th anniversary celebration in 2015, Angel unleashed the future, bringing his brand-new creation MINDFREAK®LIVE! to the Luxor Hotel & Casino in June 2016. The new immersive spectacle – based on the wildly successful touring version, which performed to sold-out houses across the country and was hailed as the "Magic Event of a Lifetime" (Huffington Post) – replaced the critically acclaimed Criss Angel BeLIEve. Angel serves as writer, director, illusion designer, star and executive producer of MINDFREAK®LIVE!. Inspired by his breakout hit TV show, MINDFREAK®LIVE! showcased 90-minutes of the most spectacular, original and revolutionary illusions ever performed on stage. With a cast that includes some of the world's most talented specialty artists, Angel brings his vision to life with a blend of heart-stopping illusions, live musicians and DJs and state-of-the-art technology including animated LED lighting and RGB lasers, LED virtual worlds, 3-D immersive effects, pyrotechnic landscapes and much more. The Las Vegas Review Journal hailed the show as "The #1 Magic Show of All Time!"
Angel is also the most watched magician in Internet history – a YouTube sensation. His "Walk on Water" clip has generated over 60 million views alone, and all his clips combined have generated more than 300 million views. Criss also has the largest social media following of any illusionist, with over six million followers.
Criss is also working on a few top-level retail partnerships to collaborate on a line of new products for release in 2018-2019. In a previous distribution deal, his successful, high-quality magic kits were offered on television, online, and in 50,000 retail stores across the U.S., resulting in sales of more than $30 million globally.
In 2011, Criss' brand power continued to evolve when he was chosen to co-create and appear in a new commercial campaign for Orville Redenbacher's Pop Up Bowl. His casting proved to be a huge coup for the brand as the spot was the number one most recalled commercial during its campaign, topping Ford®, McDonald's® and Kraft® Macaroni & Cheese according to Nielsen and getting picked up for runs in other countries.
Angel's book, Criss Angel MINDFREAK: Secret Revelations (Harper Collins) was a national bestseller and is now in multiple printings. Criss is also an accomplished musician, having produced and performed on five self-titled CDs, which accompany all his live performances and TV appearances.
Angel has received numerous awards throughout his career. Most recently, Criss was honored with a "Lifetime Achievement Award" from the International Brotherhood of Magicians. The award will be presented at the 2018 I.B.M. Convention, and he is the youngest recipient of this distinguished honor which was approved unanimously by the I.B.M. Board of Trustees at its Midyear Meeting. "This incomparable honor has only been presented previously to two commercial legendary magicians – Siegfried & Roy, and now Criss Angel joins them as the most successful magician of our day," said Simone Marron, International Secretary for the International Brotherhood of Magicians.
In July of 2017, The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce honored Criss with the 2,615thstar on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The star was dedicated at 7018 Hollywood Boulevard next to the historic Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and across the street from the star of Houdini.
Criss has been named "Magician of the Year" an unprecedented six times, including from The Magic Castle – far more than any other magician. He was the youngest magician inducted into the International Magicians Society Hall of Fame. Criss was also presented with a lifetime achievement award, The World Magic Legacy Award "A Living Legend," at The World of Magic Seminar in Las Vegas. Additionally, Angel was named the first recipient of "Magician of the Decade," as well as "Magician of the Century" and "Innovator of the Decade." Angel received an International Magic Lifetime Achievement Award and was unanimously selected as the recipient of the 22ndLouie Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Art of Magic.
Angel is tireless in his ongoing efforts to help children through his charitable works. His Johnny Crisstopher Children's Charitable Foundation (formerly Believe Anything Is Possible), was renamed in early 2016 after his then two-year old son Johnny was diagnosed with leukemia. 100% of all donations to the foundation (no deductions are taken for administration or expenses) go to childhood cancer research, treatment and ultimately a cure. His first-ever benefit event, H.E.L.P. (Heal Every Life Possible), brought in over $1m during the one-night live production in Las Vegas. In 2018 Criss received the first American Cancer Society Compassionate Heart Award, presented by Barrick. This award honors community leaders whose compassion is put into action and serve as role models for others.

Ican say I'm officially free :) Yes! Haha, I finished my International Relations project and I took my exam, so it's done. I'm pretty proud about that last one, and the results weren't bad at all either so... YAY me ^_^ Now it's time to rest for a bit until the new semester starts.
One of the things I did once I finished exams was GOING SHOPPING. AGAIN. YES. I know, I shouldn't (???) but I just needed it >_< Good thing is (and turns out to be my legit excuse) I didn't buy ANYTHING from the newest collection haha, so everything are still from sales. Sales usually last a month in Spain, we have one round in January and a second one in July (for my birthday, YAY 8D). Anyway, I'm gonna show you what I bought this last week :)
I got this beige jumper in Pull&Bear (internationally speaking, it's just a Zara sub-brand). It was 9€ only and I fell in love with it, but honestly I hated those little pearls on the shoulders, so I decided I would cit them once I got home (since they were sewed). So that's what I did 8D
This robot blouse is from Zara, and I knew it had to be mine since the first time I saw it <3 It's so geek and adorable I couldn't resist it! x_x
This is my first maxi-bag! Haha~ I really like it, and it's also from Pull and Bear. It was 6€ only! (and the original price was 30€, so I guess that was a good deal 8D). I can use it to go to uni too, it's so big it even fits my folder hah :) I'm proud of this purchase, definitely!
Last but not least, this sleeveless shirt from Pull&Bear too! It's the first time I get something spiked, and it was 8€ so I said, why not? :) One of the things I really want now is a spiked white headband ;_; I've been looking for it EVERYWHERE! I guess I'll check eBay if I'm lazy enough to go look for it to the city centre XD
Also, I've been meeting my friends recently!
With Lukey this afternoon: We had (lol well, I had) a Caramel Frappé and a chocolate cake c:
With Raquel on Thursday: Typical Chen Ji menu, homemade noodles and xiaolongbao <3
With my cousin and auntie at Caelum (a cafeteria in Barcelona where nuns bake all the pastries) last Tuesday: More chocolate cake (melted with strawberry jam) and Jasmine Tea. Speechless <3
With Alex: Last weekend at George Payne's Irish Bar. Huge plate of nachos and BBQ chicken wings <3 What else do I need?
Good thing is... I have a b-day party meal tomorrow with some friends of mine ^_^ We're going to a Japanese restaurant and then to a Japanese bakery! I'm so happy awww, can't wait >_< <3
Also, I've been getting less and less mail those days. It's easy to see that I had to break up with several penpals of mine :\ But well, at least I got some cute things I really appreciate :)
I sent Alice (Taiwan) a pack with old coins my grandpa gave to me, so she "repayed" me sending tons of kawaii stationery and note pads ^_^ Thanks sweetheart! We can barely find such things in Spain, and the ones we have are pretty expensive >_< She also sent me a New Year's postcard, but I'll leave the picture for another post :) Also, she sent me fake money and the typical red envelopes ^_^
This is my first and last letter with Hannah (Macau). Her first letter got lost in the way and it took like 2 months to get her second letter :\ Also, because of the Korea thing. I'm happy I finally got it though! She also sent me a typical red envelope explaining why they're so important for Chinese New Year's ^_^
However, I got many postcards those last few weeks! I realized I should keep going with my collection over letters... :\ They're just random swaps whenever I have postcards available, so I guess it's easier to control rather than having tons of mail due to send asap. I'm still trying to save and I'll do my best from now on :)
Last weekend I was still on exams, but my mom was in a good mood or something (?) and she bought some quality beef to make some raclette at home. Raclette could be defined as "the European version of samgyeopsal" somehow haha, but instead of using an iron, we use a stone. Basically, it's stone-grilled steak at home :) My dad got one for his birthday and we use it once every month or two months.
Table set :) Mom also cut some veggies to grill with the steak (potatoes, green pepper, leek, onion, artichokes...). Olive oil, black pepper, salt and... Yumyum ^_^
My pieces of take, sliced potatoes and chopped artichokes
Strawberries and Greek youghurt with sugar as a dessert! ;_____; <3
Well, and I guess this is enough for this last week I couldn't update :) I'm happy and relieved now! I should get ready for my 2nd semester but cmon... The weekend just started! I also want to go out at night with my friends (what a pity temperatures are dropping down tomorrow ;_____;!!!). Well, let's see what I can do! I really wanted to update the blog hah, I feel like I've been abandoning it these days and that's the least thing I'd do! Oh and, as you can see, I've changed the theme again XD Sorry about that lol but I don't feel like it looks professional... I want to change it but I don't know how ;_; I'm bad at those HTML thingies tbh... I guess I'll do something if this blog ever becomes popular! lol I realised my mom reads my posts too, she stalks me and tries to understand what I write, and she refuses to use Google Translate (good mommy!). Haha if you ever read this, thanks for reading mom! :D
(lol this is lame -__-).
Can't wait to go to Korea so my life will be more interesting XD Today I've accepted my exchange place by the way! Now it's 100% official I'm going to HUFS! Yay :)
Have a Happy February you all! <3 I'll try too hah (I promise nothing ;D)

By taking the services of cheap escorts, you can get plenty of benefits. Some of these benefits can give erotic and sensual fun also to you. However, when you take the cheap escorts services for your fun, then it is essential that you do not expect any kind of sexual benefits from them. I strongly suggest you not to expect any sexual relationship from cheap and sexy escorts as this is not a part of their work. In a general situation they can help you have a nice dating experience, you can have various other things, but you'd never get any sexual services from them.
Also, some men have a tendency of considering cheap escorts as a sex worker and they demand sexual satisfaction after hiring girls. If you have this opinion, then I would strongly recommend you to change this opinion right now. With this opinion, you will never have the desired benefits with hot women. Also, this opinion will encourage you more to expect sexual services from cheap escorts. That means you will never have the desired outcome with hot and that will surely affect your overall experience. And if you can avoid this mistake then you will surely have a better experience.
I already said, that benefits of cheap escorts can also include you in a various ways and you will be able to have great fun with them. But if you will ask for sexual services with hot and sexy women, then you may not enjoy better fun with them. Also, if you will force them for this kind of relationship, then you may not enjoy better pleasure with them in any condition or in any manner. So, not having this expectation will be the only thing that I would recommend you for your entertainment and pleasure needs.

The Prodigy: "We Had Some Great Chats With David Bowie"
But that wasn't enough to convince the band to work with The Dame... or Madonna. Liam Howlett explains all in this month's MOJO Interview, available in our new issue (June 2015/ #259) out now.
DAVID BOWIE IS... good for a chat, but not a track, according to The Prodigy's Liam Howlett in this month's MOJO Interview.
Speaking in the new edition (June 2015/ #259) out now in the UK, the electronic rabble-rouser explains why he turned down the opportunity to produce music for the Thin White Duke and Madonna too, despite becoming friendly with both of them.
The Prodigy toured with Bowie and even signed to Madonna's Maverick label in the US, but Howlett said no to production requests from the pair.
"If it was Chuck D asking I would have done it, but they didn't mean anything to me," he tells MOJO's Ian Harrison. "I remember Bowie coming into the dressing room when we did gigs together in Germany, we had some great chats about drugs and stuff. He was someone I gained a lot of respect for very quickly."
"If it was Chuck D asking I would have done it" Liam Howlett
The Prodigy man also explains that he respected Madonna and her support for his band, despite turning her down too.
"One thing I will say about Madonna is, she took the initiative herself to come and find us," he recalls. "I thought that was respect, so we signed to her label in America."
Get the new edition of MOJO now for the full, extensive interview. Plus there's a cover story interview with Paul Weller and the issue comes with a covermounted free CD, Beyond Saturn featuring 15 mind-blowing cosmic tracks including Panda Bear, TOY, Public Service Broadcasting, Neu! and more.

Mountain Bike Tire Width Is Like Boob Size. They are by preference.
Each person has his own preference size —just like the width of your bike tire. Sometimes its great to have it so big. But do you really need all that?
It depends on your preferred ride— and size. You want it thin, lithe? almost not there? —– short even knobs, perfect for dust and packed conditions. Much like a small perky with cute erasers would feel.
Are you concerned about grip and bounce? You want it thick? (with just the right amount of grip and just stands there proud and very NICE.)
Managing the "balance"
Or do you want it Plus sized? Ample, big and juicy. Much more of a Renaissance womanish type of build. These are the curves that Michaelangelo and Raphael used to draw.
Some like it double D. Big porn star tires screaming, "Look at me!" Over the cliff excessive bigness.
It really is hard to decide which one is perfect for you. You want them all at the same time. You simply want to have 'em! You just have to believe that you can handle them. There ain't no rest for the wicked.
Choices in life.
And we just go back to the original statement that it is REALLY by preference. How will you use it? Will it be for flaunting? Or pure pleasure? For the visual satisfaction? It is relative on how well you can handle the boob and the tire, it is more maximum enjoyment.

Guilty of plagiarism, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter Catherine Fitzpatrick was forced out of her job at the newspaper and dumped from her teaching position at Mount Mary College.

Guilty of plagiarism, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter Catherine Fitzpatrick was forced out of her job at the newspaper and dumped from her teaching position at Mount Mary College. Guilty of a felony, Journal Sentinel reporter Jamaal Abdul-Alim was welcomed back to the newspaper and awarded a teaching position at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
What gives? While plagiarism is not a criminal offense, it seems taking credit for someone else's work is a bigger threat to a journalist's future than a serious felony conviction. As Fitzpatrick's fall from grace reaches a new low with her recent ouster at Mount Mary, Abdul-Alim is thriving as a reporter and journalism instructor. A closer look at this curious tale of two reporters reveals that redemption may have as much to do with admitting mistakes as the nature of the offense.
Simply put, Fitzpatrick cheated on the job, never owned up to her mistakes and continues to suffer the consequences. By contrast, Abdul-Alim broke the law in his private life, never hid his conviction and was forgiven after paying his debt to society.
A respected fashion reporter who won acclaim for her firsthand accounts of the 2001 terrorist attacks while she was in New York, Fitzpatrick plagiarized an online story last June and got caught. Milwaukee Magazine and the Journal Sentinel, in separate investigations, then found several more stories by Fitzpatrick with attribution problems. By copying some sentences and passages word for word without using quotation marks or properly citing her sources, she violated the trust of readers and her bosses. Instead of coming clean to the public, however, newspaper officials and Fitzpatrick signed a confidential settlement that allowed her to resign quietly and get on with her life.
Or so she thought. The stigma of plagiarism can mark a reporter like a scarlet letter. Of course, the added stigma of a coverup doesn't help.
Fitzpatrick learned this lesson the hard way when she tried to reinvent herself as a fashion instructor just as her journalism career was crumbling last summer. After years of using the faculty of Mount Mary's fashion department as sources for her reporting, she applied for a teaching job. Then, on June 26, the Journal Sentinel published an "Editor's Note" naming Fitzpatrick and detailing her first case of plagiarism. Editors promptly suspended her without pay pending further investigation.
That didn't stop her from following through with her application to teach. And it also didn't stop Mount Mary from hiring her despite clear evidence of plagiarism, normally as big a career killer in academia as it is in journalism.
How did she get the job? Fitzpatrick downplayed the situation as a "misunderstanding," and they took her word for it, according to Toni Wulff, Mount Mary's dean of faculty. "Someone is innocent until proven guilty," says Wulff. "There were no facts of any kind."
Actually, there were already plenty of facts available at the time, if school officials had bothered to investigate. They didn't. A simple Google search could have uncovered the story she copied on the history of bikinis. "A background check wouldn't have helped," Wulff argues defiantly. "It was a matter of an accusation that was made and not proven."
Perhaps if Journal Sentinel editors had immediately gone public with evidence of several more plagiarized stories by Fitzpatrick, Mount Mary could have avoided this embarrassing fiasco. Instead, Editor Marty Kaiser confronted Fitzpatrick with the additional evidence on July 11, signed a secret settlement with her on July 23 and printed a watered-down "correction" on August 3, featuring no mention of Fitzpatrick. To teach for the fall term, she would have signed a contract by August 1, school officials say.
It was only after Milwaukee Magazine published its investigation on Fitzpatrick (October 2003) that Mount Mary officials realized they had hired a plagiarist. "You were the ones who informed us," says Sister Jane Forni, vice president for academic and student affairs. "If we had known, we wouldn't have hired her."
Adds Forni: "It is our intention not to offer her a new contract."
Fitzpatrick did not respond to an interview request.
As for Abdul-Alim, he did jail time in 2001 after pleading no contest to a misdemeanor charge for criminal damage to property and a felony charge for fleeing an officer. Fully informed from the start, his editors wanted him back, and he was free to report again following a brief stint at the copy desk.
Within weeks of his release, Abdul-Alim was teaching his first journalism class at UWM. Professor David Pritchard, then Journalism Department chairman, says he hired Abdul-Alim based on his excellent reporting skills. His crimes were not committed on the job and his journalism career was intact, so this was not a disqualifying issue, says Pritchard.
"Jamaal admits he made mistakes," says Pritchard. "His experience on both sides of the criminal justice system has been valuable to his teaching." In fact, Abdul-Alim promptly disclosed his criminal record to the class and Pritchard set up a mock press conference where students quizzed him about the hire and wrote a news report on it.
Interestingly, Pritchard says he had no qualms about hiring a convicted felon, yet he won't hire a plagiarist. "Would I hire Catherine Fitzpatrick? No," Pritchard says flatly. "Plagiarism is unacceptable."

MOORE, Okla. - Bare beer shelves can be seen across the state and retailers say it's because of a future change in laws that they're experiencing some shortages.
"It's just a temporary problem that's gonna really hurt the summer of 2018," said Bryan Kerr.
Kerr owns Moore Liquor in Moore and he likes to stay stocked up with beer, wine and liquor. But, some shelves are seeing a shortage.
"But all through the summer you're going to see missing product in liquor stores that you didn't see missing before," said Kerr.
It's all because of the new liquor law, which goes into effect October 1.
The law will allow alcohol manufacturers, like Anheuser-Busch, to choose as many distributors as it wants, and many are choosing new ones, while low-point beer is getting phased out.
"The big boys, the distributor wholesalers who got the rights, the exclusive rights through law, now that goes into effect on October 1, to sell certain beers are really playing a game at the top with - I'm not really going to be able to sell this beer anymore, so, I'm going to let it run out," said Kerr.
The old retail distributors are winding down their operations by not requesting more products, while the new ones aren't ready.
"Their licenses are not ready to be able to sell that product yet and so we're seeing a shortage as a result of them not being able to get the product that they need into the state and get it out to all of the new customers," said Kerr.
Some small distributors will merge with other companies, making it confusing for the retailer to get more beer.
"We're seeing shortages in Corona, we're seeing some shortages in Modelo, we'e seeing Tecate, Blue Moon, Pabst is a big one, Pabst Blue Ribbon, PBR," Kerr said.
Capitol Distributing LLC General Manager Gordon Green sent this statement to News 4:
"Since State Question 792 passed, Oklahoma has added hundreds of major beer, wine and liquor brands that were previously unavailable in the state. Distributors have hired new workers, increased the sizes of their facilities and contributed to economic growth.
At the same time, our industry is undergoing a major overhaul and has a number of obstacles to overcome before October 1, when cold beer and wine is available, and September 1, when the licensing system changes. Low-point (3.2%) beer is being phased out, which may make it briefly more difficult to find some beer products. Alcohol manufacturers are choosing to do business with different wholesalers, which can cause confusion for retailers about who they can buy certain products from. Some "Class B" wholesalers are winding down their operations and being consolidated into larger companies. All of this may create temporary confusion at the retail level and a temporary inability to find some products. This is to be expected after a series of major, Constitutionally mandated changes to our business model. We anticipate all of those problems being solved by October 1".

By Stasie Maxwell
When you walk into the woods, how often is it to observe or learn about yourself? With a National Monument that is home to over 3,500 species, including birds, butterflies and an amazing diversity of conifers (just to name a few), your own self may not have been on the list of things to observe. On May 25, it was.
While our Hike and Learns are usually organized with the scientific lens of ecology or botany in mind, this one was led through the lens of biomechanics therapy, specifically Qigong and meditation. Biomechanics is the study of human motion and is utilized in determining what caused injuries and how we may prevent them in the future. Qigong is between 4-5,000 years old and is a system of breathing practices and movement therapy geared towards rejuvenation and regeneration.
As we all probably know already, walking into the woods has an immediate anxiety reducing effect. Meditating in a sunny meadow, surrounded by trees and wildflowers can only deepen those relaxing qualities for the body and mind. I, Stasie Maxwell, am a long-time student and practitioner of Qigong and meditation. While we can learn much about the many plants, birds and animals, they also have much to teach us about ourselves. As I led the participants through both seated, standing and movement meditation (Qigong) I shared my favorite relational exercise.
I invited everyone to choose a plant, or animal somewhere in the meadow and observe the characteristics of that plant. I used vetch as an example; the plant spreads easily and quickly, it has many little tendrils to reach out and climb up or out. We can interpret this as an outgoing, opportunistic plant. It spreads its tendrils out in many directions searching for every opportunity. I can then relate those traits to myself. I am more of an introverted person, not outgoing, but I can see when the traits of being outgoing are beneficial. In terms of opportunistic, there is a strategy in feeling out many opportunities and moving in the direction that works best for you.
As you walk through the woods the next time, observe the various traits of the plants and animals, consider if you possess those traits yourself, or if you'd like to, or if there are situations where you could utilize those observed traits. There are lessons all around us, and opportunities for rejuvenation.

Before directing his debut feature, Hungarian filmmaker Peter Politzer gained considerable experience as a film editor. That is why it is not surprising that, in Manhood, the director's main storytelling instrument is montage. He tells us a tale of three generations of people living in Budapest. If D.W. Griffith, in his 1916 movie Intolerance, employed parallel editing to emphasize thematic similarities across different epochs, here Politzer articulates the continuity of phenomena.
Manhood follows three men at various stages of their life in Budapest. Samu (Samu Fischer) is a 13-year-old football fan who dreams of becoming a successful athlete. Deszo (Martin Szipal) is a 91-year-old man whose life is associated with photography and love stories. Forty-year-old bassist Frank (Peter Vass) has a life full of difficulties. Politzer visualizes these lives with a geometric and sculptural visual accuracy. When Deszo speaks in voiceover, while we observe his activities , the impression is that he has been deprived of the right to speak.
The director dramatizes this scenario with black-and-white imagery, although the film seems more gray than black-and-white. This is partly a reflection on our routine and hopeless life. A soundtrack of jazz compositions partly neutralizes this tension, as does humor, which adds comedy.
We can ask a question: what is the ideological or political base of Manhood? The answer is difficult, because the director does not make the meaning or message of his stories clear. The story is not complex. The cinematographer's camera is watching the events and observing heroes from a spiritual perspective. However, it is important to have a deep study of the background where they have to exist. Their "idea of success" is elusive, because the high class determines it.
In this case, Politzer's cinematic language is only descriptive and he just fixes the lives of heroes. Sometimes such narrative techniques are justified, and the film becomes interesting from many perspectives. But in this case, this solution is ineffective. The emotional and intellectual self-reflection on this film becomes difficult for the audience. There is no key episode (a direct and radical scene) in which we see that the protagonists have more or less identical problems; This is the reason for the film's lack of catharsis.

Emilie's Mexico guidebook is the 1994, edition number 7, version of the Lonely Planet. Her version details many more camping locales than our more recent addition, version 10. Version 11 came out in October of this year. The construction of a more comfortable Mexican tourist infrastructure has the Lonely Plant team replacing the lower dollar camping spots and hostels with hotels and ecotourism complexes. Rancho San Nicholas in San Cristobal de las Casas made it into the 94 edition but was no where to be found 15 years later. Its hospitality towards the RV scene warranted its inclusion in the Mexico Camping book, which was the sole reason we ended up there.
You can't travel through Chiapas without seeing the EZLN signs announcing the autonomy of Zapatista sympathetic villagers claiming autonomy from the federal Mexican government. For those of you unfamiliar with the Zapatista rebellion, read up here, and for the latest from EZLN and Subcomandante Marcos check this out. While it is not uncommon to pass through rebel communities the tourist track rarely enters the heart of the guerilla territory. The 1994 occupation of San Cristobal and the surrounding towns most likely altered many lives and changed the course of Chiapas forever. Two such victims were most likely an American couple that had purchased a ranch half way between the Mayan ruins of Tonina and Mexico highway 199. The Americans had selected this particular plot of fertile Chiapan valley as the perfect climate for the Macadamia plantation that they had always dreamed of. The picturesque valley ranch, named Esmeralda, employed many local townspeople and laborers from nearby Ocosingo (whom we met and gave rides to) while providing supplemental income through camping and cabañas for self styled amateur archaeologists.
The reason that Rancho Esmeralda wasn't in our guidebook isn't because Lonely Planet is abandoning the camping and hostel circuit. The real reason is that Rancho Esmeralda has been closed for at least 10 years; the owners either scared off or run off by the Zapatista uprising. Either way our venture down a dirt road to the now rebel encampment was met by more than a few curious stares from local villagers who haven't seen a rig like ours in a decade, if ever.

Tyra Banks & Erik Asla Reportedly Split After 5 Years: What Will Happen To Their 21-Month-Old Son?
Nearly two years after they welcomed their son via a surrogate, Tyra Banks and Erik Asla have decided to part ways and end their relationship, according to a new report. So, what does this mean for little York?
Tyra Banks and Erik Asla are calling it quits after nearly five years together, according to Page Six. The couple, who got together in 2013 and had their first son, York Banks-Asla, via surrogate in Jan. 2016, have reportedly moved out of their mansion in L.A. after ending their relationship. However, it appears they're going their separate ways on good terms. "It came drama-free and they're co-parenting their young son," an insider tells the paper. The longtime couple will also continue their professional relationship, with Erik reportedly shooting the opening credits for the upcoming season of America's Next Top Model. Tyra and Erik reportedly started having issues after York's birth, but have tried to make it work over the last year.
Tyra and Erik met on the set of Norway's version of Top Model, and have always been fairly private about their relationship. Ever since York was born, the supermodel has done her best to shield him from the spotlight. In fact, she didn't even post a photo of his face until more than a year after he was born, and the special photo was actually a Father's Day tribute for Erik. "To all the amazing daddies out there that love their kids unconditionally like my mommy's daddy and my daddy, too…HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! — York," she captioned the pic.
"I don't want [paparazzi] to make money off our child and have the first picture," she explained. "So I posed the damn picture. The next day, there ain't no paparazzi pictures, because mama knew how to hide that camera." Amen!
HollywoodLifers, are you surprised by Tyra and Erik's split?

Halfway to Meeting Baby: A Pregnancy Update
Hi friends! We are a few weeks into October, one of my favorite months in the year, and I thought it would be fun to share a little pregnancy update with you all.
You've been massively supportive, unbelievably kind, and I want to celebrate every moment of this miracle! As of today, Baby Sowell is the size of a cantaloupe! A cantaloupe...in my belly! Can you believe it? Honestly, my brain cannot compute. Nevertheless, it's true! Baby is growing by the minute, and it's wild to even type these words: we are halfway to becoming a family of three. I shared with a friend this morning that this week is big, but it also just feels different.
For the first time in our whole pregnancy, I've finally given myself permission to imagine what life will be like with a baby in our arms.
Our journey has been so unique, and even though I have fought very hard to not let fear or worry have a voice in my ear, it's been tough to take in the good news without wondering if bad news lurks around the corner. I've learned that when you lose something or someone, the old adage "time heals all wounds" certainly bears some weight. With each passing day and week, after every appointment, and during every little baby kick...I heal. I exhale. I learn to trust again, to hope, and to really enjoy these moments as the gifts they are.
The other night, I had a vivid dream we were in the delivery room.
Reed delivered our baby like a regular Grey's Anatomy stud, and in a blink, a midwife placed our bundle of joy in my arms. The scene changed to Reed running down a hall in his scrubs, bursting through double doors to the waiting room. He shouted, "It's a ______!" (My dream bleeped it out - haha!) and our crowd of friends and family cheered. He asked my parents if they wanted to meet their grandbaby and there wasn't a dry eye in the room. I woke up from the dream at around 5am and cried silent tears of joy. I knew it wasn't real, but I smiled as I thought, "It will be."
Little moments like these...baby moving around in my tummy nonstop, and today's ultrasound have been steady reminders that God has us in his loving hands.
This morning's appointment was the one when we were able to find out the gender, to which we quickly declined (mostly so I wouldn't change my mind!), and we got to enjoy a long ultrasound...seeing every little part of baby's growing form. The moment our technician began, we saw a precious waving hand on the screen! I felt so emotional, it was almost as if baby was saying, "Hi Mama and Daddy, I'm doing great!" Everything looks normal but we will receive more detailed results next week. Our technician shared that baby's size is a bit above average...which makes sense considering Reed was a 10 lb baby himself! I was just over 5 lbs when I was born, so I'm hoping ours lands somewhere in the middle. Baby kicked and spun the whole time, making our technician's job a little difficult, but she laughed the whole time, telling us our baby is active and healthy.
Physically, I'm doing great! I can't muster up any complaints, as every moment feels like a blessing.
Of course, some of my symptoms are uncomfortable, but for me, they are indicators this pregnancy is progressing in a normal way. Some of my current symptoms are cramping legs, strong fatigue around 3pm every day, occasional heartburn and indigestion, and some lower back pain. Reed and I went on a difficult 7-mile hike last week, which I so enjoyed, but definitely felt the next morning! Last weekend, we had some dear friends in town, and we drove all around the Bay Area. I loved every minute but felt more tired than ever when Monday rolled around! Everyday, I am learning my limits, listening to my body, and taking it easy when I need to. Sundays are funny days, because when we are setting up for church, no one will let me lift a finger! We're a mobile church, so setup and breakdown are "all in" and as much as I want to help, I know things are different and asking for help isn't weakness. (A hard lesson to learn for a doer!)
My belly is growing rapidly, but my midwife assured me it's so obvious because of how otherwise petite I am, and it could be an indicator of a bigger baby and/or an earlier delivery date! I absolutely love it, and because I know I am eating healthy (aside from the occasional donut run!), staying active, and growing a healthy baby...you won't find me obsessing over weight gain. I feel this time of year is a great one to be pregnant, because it's not too hot to wear stretchy leggings and big sweaters!
Friends and family often love touching my tummy, and I have no problem with it!
I know lots of Mamas who don't prefer "being a petting zoo" (which is totally their prerogative), but this is another one of those things I deeply appreciate, because people are sharing in our joy over our miracle! We feel over the moon to have so many genuinely loving people around us, many of whom have been praying with us since the beginning of this journey. I want to share as much of this with our tribe as possible!
I started a registry (eep!) and thus, the baby gear research has begun.
This doesn't feel overwhelming, but so exciting! One of my closest friends gifted us with the crib I wanted at our housewarming party (cue all the happy tears!) and we picked up the cutest changing table for free, thanks to the Nextdoor app! I have a fun vision for our nursery, and I love walking through the baby section of stores, wondering if our little one will sport baseball caps or frilly headbands. One small perk of waiting to find out the gender is our focus can be on getting the things we'll actually need for a baby, while waiting on clothes until necessary. Babies grow so stinkin' fast, and onesies are surprisingly expensive, so I'm in no rush to have the perfect outfits. As far as we're concerned, a stroller is more important!
This week, Reed and I will begin reading a few books together.
We have some Christian parenting curriculum we're excited to dive into, and I'm going to get a head start on our baby book. Being halfway makes all of this feel so real, and we want to walk into parenting intentionally...with a heart to humbly learn, but also with a plan! My Dad always told me, "without a plan, you plan to fail!" Of course, raising a child is less linear than most things, but I think the principle applies. We will be kind to ourselves along the way, and are sure to make countless mistakes, but without any preparation, we make it harder than it needs to be.
I feel so incredibly grateful to be on this journey with Reed.
He is a remarkable husband... loving, patient, present, intentional, sacrificial, hardworking, romantic, playful, and Christ-like. Our baby is already the luckiest to have a Daddy like him! Thank you for joining us on this special journey, and please continue to pray for us and our baby. We feel the love and prayers already, and count ourselves deeply blessed to have you in our corner. Let me know in the comments if you like reading these updates, and I'll be sure to post more in the future!
Keep celebrating,
All photos by Makenzie Photography, mugs by Beholden Prints, and onesie by Simple but Sassy. My vegan leather jacket is old from Abercrombie & Fitch (find similar one here) and dress is from Target (find similar one here). Reed's denim jacket is from Levi's and his shirt is from H&M (find similar one here.)

Peddle! Peddle! Peddle! TJ and a few of the the Suncrest Mobile Home Park crew hollered as I learned to ride without training wheels. There were a lot of wrecks in this process. I remember still the the feeling of fear and excitement that came with mastering the balance needed to stay upright on a bicycle. Looking back at my youth I realize how much bicycles played a role in my free time. My best bud growing up Justin Brophy likes to remind me that use to tell him how awesome my legs felt from long bike rides. Justin has admitted to me that some of our adventures by bike were a bit strenuous.
Fast Forward many years that passed with biking getting replaced with skating, girls, wild parties, and bodybuilding. Six years ago while working security in a nightclub the head of security John Riffey showed up on his bike. In retrospect I now see the brilliance of John reintroducing me to bikes. This was a very dark time for me and though John might not admit it he knew I needed to peddle. I had a few incidents that put me in an all time low. John had just bought a new bike and offered to sell me his old Trek Y frame bike.
I soon found myself hoping on my bike with my headphones in and pedaling for hours around Greensboro clearing my head. Next I started hitting the trails every chance I had. Realizing that It was time to retire the Y frame I got a more modern mtn bike. Mtn biking was my favorite way to get away from everything. Shredding down mountain sides hyper focused on picking the right line cutting and slicing my way back to the parking lot. I felt invincible. Life has its way of keeping me humble and in 2012 I lost my drivers license and my right to be a motorist. A wreck that could have taken my life or someone else's left me back in a dark place. This incident made it seem like I had hit bottom. I'm blessed to have good friends and family but their support wasn't enough…. I needed to peddle it out.
2013 was one of the hardest years in my adult life. I learned a lot about humility and blessings. Working full time as a personal trainer 6am-5pm then peddling across town to go to massage school from 530pm-9pm M-F. There were a lot of rainy days. Days where I would literally start to fall asleep on my ride home from school. That Fuji road bike was as old as me but I found help at the Asheville Bike Recyclery. Commuting roughly 3000 miles that year I broke almost every component on that bike but I learned a lot. I remember biking in single digit temps and thinking "poor me" and "you don't know my struggle" these thoughts would be broken when I would ride past someone who would be sleeping outside without proper gloves and cold weather attire. This made me decide to live life with less. "Why do I have 6 jackets and one body to keep warm?" I had been meditating on non-attachment to so many worldly possessions that were not serving to better my community. I moved out of my apartment and into a minivan with my bikes. This provided me with my basic needs while allowing me to plan and save for a grand adventure.
5 years after reigniting my love with bikes I decide I needed to find my way and that I couldn't do so without pedaling. The summer of 2015 I shipped my bike to City Hostel Seattle where I would begin a 5000 miles of pedaling and 200,000 feet of climbing to get home. Riding through the Rockies made me know what I would be getting into the summer of 2016.
I'm 4 days out from taking on Riding the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route. My nerves are kicking in as go down my check list and look over maps. I don't know what I will encounter over the next 6 weeks but I do know that the lessons and personal growth I gained though biking has made the impossible possible.
This one is for you Dad. I'll be taking you with me in my heart.

Andrew Motion is an English poet, novelist and biographer, who is the current Poet Laureate in the United Kingdom. A Poet Laureate, for those of you who do not know, is a poet officially appointed by a government and is often expected to compose poems for State occasions and other government events. In England, the official poet of the monarch is an appointed made for life, since the time of Charles II. What a great job huh?
Seems like Andrew Motion could just sit back and write poems these days, but almost three years ago he set out on a mission to create a not for profit organization called the The Poetry Archive.
With almost no poetry on television, outside of your occasional rapper turned poet, and the poetry shelves of most bookshops small and poorly-stocked, Andrew recognized that poetry is increasingly no longer part of familiar life.
Our intention was to use the internet to prove that the sound of a poem is as essential to its meaning as the words on the page. And we wanted that sound to be made by the authors themselves because we felt as we still feel: that poets have unique rights on and insights into their own work. Their accents, pacing, inflection, emphasis and tone all tell us vital truths about intended meaning, indicating the ways in which a work of art is and is not dependent on its creator's self, and achieving a matchless blend of intimacy and address.
We also wanted a website that would be serious but fun, containing high-quality recordings of contemporary English-language poets as well as the best surviving recordings of the mighty dead, starting with the earliest of all: Tennyson.
Around these recordings we wanted to see equally serious-but-fun educational material: brief biographies of the poets, interviews with poets, lesson plans, guided tours, an interactive glossary of terms. And we wanted there to be a colourful part of the site for children. It was an aim to design things in a way that would overcome some of the prejudices and puzzlements that surround the teaching of poetry in schools.
The website now has more than 125,000 unique visitors a month. Every month these visitors listen to more than a million pages of poetry for free. It seems that waning interest in poetry for much of the last century was not a lack of interest but delivery. The Poetry Archive and the internet have allowed poetry to connect with a wide readership.
The Archive has also just completed the first stage of a collaboration with the Poetry Foundation of America, which is funding the addition of 100 American poetic voices, which includes William Carlos Williams, and the US Poet Laureate Kay Ryan.

NetApp, Aptec unveil Expresspod
The two companies target the fast growing SMB segment with new offering
Value-added distributor Aptec, an Ingram Micro company, has announced the launch of NetApp's Expresspod SMB virtualisation solution in the Middle East.
ExpressPod is NetApp's and Cisco's new pre-packaged solution, which combines computing, networking, storage, and management products into a solution architected for streamlined deployment.
According to Aptec, ExpressPod integrates Cisco UCS C-Series servers, NetApp FAS2220 or FAS2240 storage, and Cisco Nexus 3048 switches with infrastructure management to support an open ecosystem of management and hypervisor solutions.
"After having a successful run globally, with Flexpod being adopted by the enterprise and mid-sized enterprise customers, now NetApp and Cisco have launched Expresspod to replicate the same success in the fast growing SMB segment," said Govind Haridas, business unit manager, Security and Storage at Aptec. "It is a validated design and a viable alternative for the customers who want to enjoy enterprise-class performance with limited IT budgets."
According to Haridas, Aptec has launched extensive marketing campaigns to promote Expresspod and is also driving initiatives to enable channel partners to support the various customer engagements. "In addition to a wide range of sales and marketing resources designed to help partners grow their businesses and accelerate customer success, Cisco and NetApp offer a plan, design and implement help desk that allows partners to collaborate with the two vendors in solving real-world implementation challenges," he said.
According to Aptec, critical to the success of FlexPod and ExpressPod is the more than 660 certified FlexPod partners, including 33 premium partners in EMEA and the Americas.
Aptec said clear deployment guidance and training, coupled with support, marketing, and demand-generation resources from Cisco and NetApp, provide help to partners to build and extend infrastructure solution practices to IT departments globally.

In chatting with a sweet (much younger than I am) mama in church last week – I shared with her this recognizable memory from my days as a young mama.
On a rainy morning 20+ years ago, I was dropping my older 2 girls off at school and was headed home to spend the day with my preschooler in our home (which at the time was a new double-wide trailer in the country that did not feel like home). After I dropped the girls off, I drove by a local bank and saw a woman with a beautiful rain coat headed in for her day at work. Stylish raincoats in those days were worn by professional women – women who had a purpose and a career. And I was stricken with envy and jealously, because obviously that woman was more important than I was. From her raincoat, I determined that she had her life together, loved her career and was glad to be going to work on that rainy day. (Of course my theory of the women's fulfilling career was an assumption, but somehow that raincoat gave me an illusion that I wanted to believe.)
As for me that day, I drove home in my old van, in sweatpants and a sweatshirt (basically the yoga clothes of that day) and I chose to be dissatisfied with my life. I lothed where we lived, disliked our van with its ripped seats and right then, I wanted to wear a pretty raincoat that came with a fulfilling job. I can remember those feelings like it was yesterday.
As I share that story now, I can smile, breath deeply and embrace my life then. If I could talk to myself then, I would now tell myself that this was a season of my life. Just one season of many that have come and gone. We would not always live in a double-wide trailer, my preschooler would grow up as would the older girls into capable, strong, lovely women and the old van would get replaced. I would never have a fancy raincoat (that would now probably be in a landfill), but I would have many career opportunities to use my gifts and talents.
Even now, I continue to learn to embrace the season my life is in now. Although it is not a fancy raincoat that now sways me, it can easily be something such as success in an area I desire or financial security. The writer of Ecclesiastes 3:1 said it best … "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens" (click here to read the rest of this passage).
Help me Lord, to embrace the season of life you have me in at this time and to trust only You to fulfill Your purposes for me. Only with You can I embrace my life at this moment and be fulfilled knowing that I am right where You desire me to be.

Francis Redfern lived at 34 Carter Street, Uttoxeter from 1851 to 1895, the year of his death, but this year the museum will be commemorating his 193rd birthday with an evening talk and a family fun event.
"Last year we celebrated the 150th year since his book 'The History and Antiquities of Uttoxeter' was published with our own publication about his life and work. We are now starting to commemorate the man who gave us our name on an annual basis around his birthday in an effort to make his name more widely known in the town." Said Helena Coney, Archivist.
The exact date of Redfern's birth is not known as it was before all births, deaths and marriages were legally registered by the authorities but his baptism was recorded on the 23rd May 1823 at Fenny Bentley.
The talk on May 24th will be given by Chairman of the Uttoxeter Heritage Trust, David Parkes, and will describe his life and works. Booking is advisable.
"The trust holds digital copies of his diary in 9 volumes and these provide amazing insight into the trials and tribulations of his life, we sincerely look forward to sharing that with people." Said Dave Parkes
The family fun event will take place on the bank holiday Monday 30th May and will use the many original watercolours the Redfern created hoping they would be used to illustrate his book, to allow visitors a different perspective on the town and a chance to create their own works of art.
All the events run this year at Redfern's Cottage are funded through their £643k grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, the largest ever awarded to a project in East Staffordshire.
For more information please visit the Redfern's Cottage facebook page, call in or ring up on 01889567176, opening times are 12pm-3pm Tues-Fri, 10am-1pm Saturdays.

Continued diagnosis of norovirus
Although the cost of the detection of norovirus, it is a status quo several thousand yen, and they took the test even simple insurance does not apply.
And closer inspection, it takes tens of thousands of yen, is a test that I did not have to take to feel free, you do not want to check to pay such costs if you do not have.
So, even if there are symptoms of norovirus, the hospital is also the case that few bother to inspect, diagnose.
It will be called "probably norovirus" as viewed from the symptoms, I respond that is common.
You are like many people feel a doubt that when I went to the hospital, etc. Unlike influenza, not us to properly test for diagnosis.
But when will be diagnosed with norovirus exactly, and would not be diagnosed, the method of treatment for status quo because it is together, I do not have much people to a thorough examination.
Administrative work, and those who are working in the hospital, and staff of facilities for the elderly people to cook, the meals, the viral infection has become a very important issue.
It is that sometimes have been reported in the TV news, in some cases can have an infection in such facilities, it has become infected population.
So, unlike our patients in general, or are infected with a virus, or not there, the staff who work in these facilities will need to be inspected.
Because it is also the case that this test has not been properly, to those who are in the facility from cooking professionals, become infected population, must be especially careful.

Fulton Charleston
Fulton is founded on the idea that a home and a neighborhood are built to last for generations. The fact that Fulton developers are builders gave them a special advantage when developing the neighborhood. During site plan design, the developers took into consideration house orientation and its appeal and correlation to the surrounding properties. Fulton homes, a modern twist on Lowcountry architecture, are built with quality materials with an emphasis on low maintenance and energy efficiency. Raised slab foundations eliminate crawlspace humidity. Concrete porches have a tabby finishes and brick borders. Metal roofs lend a historic vibe while adding to longevity and value. All homes feature 2 x 6 exterior walls, vinyl windows, increased insulation, tankless water heaters, high-quality garage doors, high-efficiently HVAC systems and more. Fulton is unlike any other neighborhood. Fulton is a collaborative effort among multiple professionals – all experienced in the Luxury Real Estate Market. This team of Architects, Interior and Kitchen Designers, Landscape Architects and Builders worked together to ensure each home was designed for optimal space utilization both inside and out, with an emphasis on interiors and the highest quality finishes to achieve a uniqueness for each home. All of this was done taking into account the adjacent homes and the overall neighborhood design.Visit the website Free brochure

Shelby Marquardt
Owner, Lead Photographer at Shelby Tsika Photography
You are so loved.
1 john 4:18-19
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.
A few things about me:
Mr. & Mrs.
I am an introverted, extrovert who loves people, but needs to recharge
My idea of a good vacation is doing intense research on food in that city and diving in to allll the restaurants
I am a newly married lady to the kindest man, Cody Marquardt (pictured left)!!
Shelby Tsika Photography is still my business name, even though my legal last name is Marquardt now. As a little girl, I always thought my last name would get easier to pronounce one day. NOPE :)
You pronounce Tsika, SEE-KAH. Marquardt is : MAR-KWOART.
I am pretty obsessed with audiobooks, especially thrillers. Cody says it's not really reading (it totally is)
I pretty much Love all things sweet.
Neutral basics + Ruffles + jeans + flats + tiny jewelry = my go-to outfit
I have an anxiety disorder, and I am not ashamed.
I own a second business, The Kimberly Place. Mental health is my favorite topic, y'all !
Canada is my favorite place in the world.
I am an INFJ on the Meyers Briggs. You should definitely let me know if you are too, because we are less than 1% of the population
I grew up half in Western North Carolina & half in South Texas. The Blue Ridge Mountains have my heart.
The most important thing you should know about me is that Jesus is all that I am and I cannot put into words how incredible His love is for you and me. I believe man was created for His glory. This business is my little space on this earth that I use to honor Him.
I am so happy you are here, and I can't wait to meet you!

Martine I am the most uncoordinated person in the world, but a friend of mine has convinced me to go to body jam as it is so much fun. She assures me that there are other unco people there and it will just be a laugh. I'm feeling that I really need to vary my exercise, so I'm going to give it a go next week. Maybe you should try it too and then we can compare notes?? Hope you enjoy your niece's visit.

I tried body jam when I was allowed to go to the gym. Totally uncoordinated but I had a ball trying

I too struggle with coordination. At least in the choreographed movement realm. Sports weren't a problem, but if the dance class repeated something 12 X's I still wouldn't have gotten it. Good for you!
