This is not really a contemporary subject but one to keep in mind for when bond opportunities arise. Graham in his book, the Intelligent Investor, discusses how sometimes second grade bonds, or what we would now call high yield or junk bonds trade at extreme discounts to their maturity value due to changes in interest rates and due to the change in the perception of risk. The junk bond yield has significantly increased over the past few months but is still far from opportunity territory as it was the case in 2016, 2011 and especially 2009.

The Intelligent Investor - Chapter 6 Summary - Bonds And IPOs
Good day for investors. Today we continue with our Book summary of the intelligent investor and we discussed Chapter 6. However if you are interested in a more more modern perspective on value investing please check out my book on Amazon modern value investing. The link is in the description below where I discussed 25 tools how to analyze companies in addition to modern perspectives on portfolio strategies. Chapter 6 of the Intelligent Investor discusses junk bonds foreign bonds and new issues stock IPOs. So junk bonds. This is really not contemporary now because the interest rates on junk bonds are really low when compared to other interest rates. So there is a huge risk because those interest rates expand and there is little return because you're not going to risk that much for investing in junk bonds. Let me show you. This is the U.S. high yield effective yield and you can see that now it is at six point eleven percent but in 2016 it went to almost 10 percent in 2012. Again it went to 10 percent and during a real recession it went to 23 24 percent and that's when you have to buy those junk bonds. Not when things are good. You have to buy them when things are bad. What's very interesting that the Graham tells us how all the junk bonds suffer severe sinking spells in bad markets. But most of them recover when favorable conditions returns. So this is really crazy. Nothing has changed since the 1960s 50s 40s junk bonds go hugely up hugely down. And you can read bad market conditions.
You can buy them really really with the huge discount. So given the low interest rates now and if we see interest rates expand we can really see those bonds those junk bonds be bought at huge discounts when a bad market comes and then it is the time to look at junk bonds. Look at what the probability of default. Finding those that don't have default or that those have a margin of safety and then investing for now the risk is too small for the reward. But if you're just patient and you wait for the normal market cycles you will find that opportunity just to show how an increase in interest rates affects the bond. This is the yield on Tesla's bond which means that investors are now scared for the risk of law and the bond is much cheaper than it was when it was issued with a 5.5 percent yield on foreign bonds. Graham is completely against foreign bonds but then you have to see OK how that fits your portfolio your portfolio diversification and whether you need to be exposed to currency risks or not. If you live in one country you might want to stick to those country yielding bonds. If you don't like global risks that's something that's a personal preference and foreign bonds are different than foreign stocks because a business is a business and the bond has much more risks because all those risks are fixed like currency risk interest rates etc. etc.. So keep that in mind. Now what about IPOs. Graham really doesn't like IPOs from a general perspective. But he says that in a bad market times there could be opportunities in IPOs.
Then when the bull market somewhere in the middle of the bull market then IPOs are fairly priced and in the late stages of the bull market IPOs are extremely overpriced. So if you look at the IPO as you might want to wait a little bit that they are more fairly priced and that's what we have seen happening with snap chat. However in the early stages of the bull market just think of Facebook the is we're OK priced but even then Facebook stocks first drop almost 150 percent only to rise to the current levels. So be careful with IPO. You can perhaps always wait or invest in stages to get to lower energy prices because those are usually very very volatile environment. Further when the IPO is done. Always keep in mind that the bent bank promoting the IPO gets a fee between two and eight percent. So there will be very very positive on promoting that to get the high fees as possible. Therefore I don't like to invest in IPOs. I like to invest late or if the story is the same but the market stops liking it. So I usually look at an IPO free six months later or after the lock in selling period from the management has passed. So something to think about. Graham says also that we have to look at IPOs later when there is really a margin of safety and when those become a bargain the morrow of this chapter is that in the market nothing changes the same cycles happen over and over again. There is enthusiasm about high yield. People take a lot of risk for a little bit higher healt.


text: http://www.hindustantimes.com/editorials/the-whatsapp-facebook-case-will-determine-india-s-online-privacy-laws/story-fyJQgjZhDa55iaOPw1KV4J.html There is no guaranteed right to privacy enshrined in the Indian constitution. However, in many judgements over several years, several legal luminaries have interpreted Article 21 – the right to life and liberty as giving rise to a somewhat limited right to privacy. There are a number of restrictions to a right to privacy, mostly articulated through interpretations of various judgements of the Supreme Court. It is in light of this, that the ongoing case in the Supreme Court challenging the messaging application WhatsApp's privacy policy becomes important. This is primarily because the right to privacy is a lot more complicated <http://www.hindustantimes.com/tech/to-share-personal-data-or-not-it-s-time-india-came-clean-on-its-privacy-laws/story-DpQ3mqdTi8unTC9wDHYSoM.html> when it is transposed from offline life to an online universe; where corporations not based in India are used widely by Indians for communication, knowledge dissemination, etc. Important questions that need to be asked are who has access to all our tweets and Facebook posts? Who has access to private photographs shared only with family on a WhatsApp group? The current case in the Supreme Court essentially deals with these changes in the privacy policy on WhatsApp. The petitioners contend that WhatsApp had a far more stringent privacy policy before being acquired by Facebook in 2014. Now, both content and metadata of users can be accessed by Facebook. This change is significant because in theory, data collected by Facebook can be used for tracking and monitoring of users <http://www.hindustantimes.com/tech/facebook-twitter-whatsapp-are-all-selling-you-to-be-able-to-sell-to-you/story-m4YRxc8qrtWsP7xn42JL8M.html> very easily. Since the social media giant already collects a lot of other data including location, 'likes', friends, etc; giving it more access to other private details of users' lives could be dangerous. India's first regulation for 'data privacy' came through the Information Technology Act of 2000. This law deals with compensation for negligence in implementing and maintaining reasonable security practices and procedures for sensitive personal data or information; and provides punishment for disclosure of information without the information provider's consent. In the case of privacy concerns regarding the unique identity scheme or Aadhaar database, the attorney general had argued in the Supreme Court that privacy is not a fundamental right <http://www.hindustantimes.com/india/citizens-do-not-have-fundamental-right-to-privacy-centre-tells-sc/story-ykRepEFYCvWteceqLNuz9O.html> guaranteed to Indian citizens; and therefore collecting and storing biometrics cannot be a violation of such a right. This case is still underway and has been referred to a larger bench of the Supreme Court. In light of the complicated jurisprudence surrounding the right to privacy, the WhatsApp case takes on an important hue. The judgement in the case could determine the way ahead for privacy – both online and offline – in India. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That's right, I made a fishing film. Please ignore my terrible casting technique (it works!)
Fantastic !! Drone footage is epic. Looked like a great way to spend the day.
Nil durum volenti !!
Youre casting is better than mine. Dont wanna be too far out for rig anyway. Caught a 31lb female where you were fishing in the video a couple years ago. Was an imense struggle to land it on my own.
What prawns are you using? I always use crab. Run out yesterday down Haast way. My son caught the only rig of the day on raw shelled prawn I had in the freezer for a treat when no one was home but they wouldnt stay on the hook long until i tied the bastards on.
Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
Not a fan of sand between the toes Gimp? Cool vid man
My son was using prawns yesterday and had the only hookups.
Never fished in such perfect conditions on the coast and had such little action.
Tons of porpoises in close probably didn't help tho. Once the tide went out a bit so did they and we started getting some luck.
Gimp has let me know of the prawns he uses so I will get some and give them a try tomorrow.
Just had a feed of panko coated rig for tea. Very nice.

I don't know how to introduce this, so let's just get to the story.
Brett Zorse, 50, apparently took a liking to a 32-year-old woman he was seated next to on a flight between San Francisco and New York. Being the friendly, flirtatious type, Zorse struck up a conversation or 2 with her during the trip, conversations she says always managed to find their way into Sexland, a place to which she was not interested in traveling. For example…
At one point, the woman recalled, she offered to retrieve something Zorse wanted from the overhead compartment, remarking that she would save him from having to climb over her to get his belongings. "I'd really like to climb all over you," Zorse replied, according to the woman.
Either because she had had enough of him or because it's just something she does, the woman took some medication to help her fall asleep a few hours into the flight. We can argue the wisdom of that decision all day long, but that's what she did. And weird guy or not, nobody should have to consider the possibility that what allegedly happened next is going to happen.
About 40 minutes before arrival at John F. Kennedy International Airport, the woman "woke up… to Zorse massaging her thigh underneath her skirt."
When the woman demanded to know what he was doing, Zorse reportedly said, "It's not like I molested you. It's not like I stuck my finger in your pussy or grabbed your tits." Zorse followed up that statement by noting, "I wouldn't mind a massage right now."
I think now might be a good time to point out that there were actually 3 people in this row of seats, not just the 2 we've been focusing on. We have the woman, we have Zorse, and because why wouldn't the type of guy who would do something like this also do something like this, we have Zorse's 12-year-old son.
Zorse, of course, has a slightly different take on what went down/came up.
He told police that he believed the nice lady was "flirting with him. He said that she had been telling him how attractive he was and that he was a good father, and that as a result he felt that a bond had formed between them. He admitted that yeah, he put his hand on her leg for maybe 30 seconds, but there was none of that under the skirt funny business, thank you very much. But interestingly he did say that there was a chance he could've said all that it's not like I molested you stuff, which is almost as good as an admission, no?
He was charged with simple assault and could spend up to 6 months in jail, where it's not like someone might make with an inappropriate finger or anything.

Nissan has just given the Navara some minor tweaks and upgrades in its latest refresh for 2019. While it's not the most radical of changes, Nissan actually focused more on improving what's underneath the pickup truck. From cleaner turbo-diesel engines and better stopping power, to a new infotainment system and uprated suspension, Nissan was quite busy indeed improving the Navara.
Let's begin with the not so obvious changes Nissan made for the pickup truck. Like its predecessor, the familiar front fascia design remains on the 2019 facelift. What's new, however, are the black inlays on the LED headlights which give the Navara a fresh new look. Then there's the new alloy wheel designs that are available in 17- and 18-inch sizes.
But what is perhaps the most obvious change on the 2019 Navara is its updated rear suspension. With it, the rear of the pickup now stands 25mm taller, which could help matters off-road and with the payload. Moreover, Nissan said that the revised rear suspension also improved the Navara's cargo carrying capacity. Stopping power on the Navara was is also better thanks to four-wheel disc brakes, doing away with the rear drums.
Not only did Nissan give the Navara some exterior changes, they were also busy making upgrades inside the cabin. Greeting occupants inside is a new 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system dubbed 'Nissan Connect'. According to Nissan, it has a user-friendly interface, comes with Apple CarPlay, and comes with connected services that can remotely control certain functions of the Navara.
With the help of an app, the driver can lock the doors, check the fuel level, or even locate where the vehicle was parked. Other than that, the Navara's cabin largely remains the same as before.
Under the hood, the Euro-spec 2019 Navara is powered by a 2.3-liter turbo-diesel engine. For its latest update, Nissan claimed that both the 163 and 190 PS versions now conform to Euro 6d-temp emission standards. Nissan says power delivery was improved on the entry-level version as well thanks to the addition of a twin-turbo system which was initally available only on the more powerful variants.
As before, the 2019 Navara is equipped with Nissan's suite of Intelligent Mobility features. These include: intelligent around-view monitor, intelligent emerency braking, hill-start assist, and hill-descent control.
The refreshed Nissan Navara will be offered in Europe first and eventualy make its way to other markets in the coming months.

I Corinthians 13 starts with a great list of things we can do that are considered "nothing" without love. In the realm of parenting, I've added "raise kids who love the Lord" to that list. While there's nothing wrong with having this as a goal of parenting, there's also nothing wrong with the list in I Corinthians. Without love, though, "raising kids who love the Lord" is nothing.
Is it even possible to raise kids who love the Lord if I don't love raising them that way? What about if I'm not loving the Lord myself? My prayer is that God would be give me a heart of love for Him and all He's done for me followed by a love for my family, including Jeremy and the boys. Then I know my attempts will not amount to "nothing."

Amos 1:1-2; 5:14-15, 21-24
"But let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream."
I wonder if there is a bigger act of silence we can take part in this weekend which is not just to stand in silence for a couple of minutes but to actually silence those who denounce and those who speak war and those who enflame and those who do not speak of the love of humanity and the compassion of justice.
What if we silenced those who speak of war, of power, of hero worship, of the "really great" armaments we have responsibility for (but perhaps not the wisdom to go with that responsibility)? What if our news channels silenced all of that and found stories instead that told us about examples of peaceful living, of swords beaten to ploughshares? A whole weekend. What might we feel after that towards each other?
Of course, keeping silent about injustice and tax dodging and secret arms deals isn't good either but what if we extend a silence across a weekend against those who rally for war of any kind, who want to make only one group great again, who separate themselves from neighbours and who think the rich who avoid tax that creates welfare, support for the terrorised and keeps communities safe are clever. This is a bigger conflict than bloody war. It is a bigger silence we offer.
But let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

Moto X tablet release mystification since phone confirmation
Thursday is a big day for Motorola, as we get to see what the Moto X has to offer, although the jury is still out on this device, because we are unsure if it will be a mid-range or high-end smartphone. However, that is not the only confusing thing, as we had assumed to learn of another Motorola X device, a tablet.
The Moto X tablet release is one of mystification, because we heard several rumors at the start of the year, but since the Moto X phone confirmation, things have gone a little quiet, although come to think of it, the rumors went stagnant a few months ago now.
We have to ask ourselves why the rumors of the X tablet stopped, because the likes of the Wall Street Journal reported back in December of last year that there would be a Google X phone and tablet, although we know that name has changed since?
Maybe it is because Motorola knows that the Moto X phone is to be a mid-range device, and so feels this is a tougher market to crack for a tablet, considering there is a wider choice. Okay, we know the high-end tablet market is no easy thing to crack, but there does seem to be a greater choice of mid-range tablets, such as the Kindle Fire HD.
However, Amazon could be moving up to the higher-end tablet market if we are to believe the latest reports. Anyway, back to the Moto X tablet possibility, the likelihood of Motorola announcing this device on Thursday is slim to none, although it would be good to see how they would compete with the Nexus 7 or 10.
Even though there is no sign of a Moto X tablet coming anytime soon, would you welcome one, and if so what would your expectations be in terms of design and features?

So you want to flatten your tummy out, and you're willing to try exercising. If you've got a heartbeat and a television, then you probably know about treadmills, stationary bicycles, elliptical runners, ab exercises and the like. In short, you probably have some notion of exercise that is advertised to be directed toward losing stomach fat. Because you already have this notion, it is important for us to address it: the forms of exercise that you have used or that you are thinking about using are probably not the best ways to get a flat stomach. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to examine the differences in fat-loss benefits between low-intensity and high-intensity exercise, and to highlight the best and most efficient exercises for belly fat, most notably sprinting.Targeted Abdominal ExercisesGotta get this one out of the way. Targeted ab exercises like crunches, air-biking, side crunches, sit-ups, etc. are excellent exercises – if you want to gain stomach muscle. While these exercises do burn a moderate amount of calories, the rate of calories burned per hour is roughly equivalent to that of a leisurely (low-intensity) bike-ride. Ab exercises can actually make your stomach a little larger, because they build the muscle that hides beneath the fat. Eventually, you will want to build your abdominal muscles, but if you build them before you can see them, then your efforts will directly counteract your goal: a flat stomach. Therefore, this kind of exercise, though recommended in very modest amounts for general health and posture stability, is really not among the best exercises for belly fat.Low-Intensity (Aerobic) Cardiovascular ExerciseSure, your heart needs exercise. Whose doesn't? So how does your heart exercise effect your fat-loss goals? Perhaps the most prevalent myth about cardio and fat-loss is that there exists such a thing as a "fat-burning zone" and that this zone is ideal for trimming down. In point of fact, there is a heart-rate zone in which the body's primary expenditure comes from fat, just as there is a zone for protein and a zone for sugar. However, there are many reasons to reject the notion that exercising in the fat-burning zone is really not the best method of cutting down your tummy.In the first place, consider the people who actually exercise within this zone. Are they skinny? This well-circulated myth does not seem to have helped very much those who adhere to it. Rather, it keeps them in the gym for hours everyday, hoping that eventually they'll see returns from all that time they put into their exercising.In the second place, there is no physiological merit to burning fat while you exercise. Bear with me. Your body is an adaptive machine. In the face of any adversity, your body will make adjustments to handle that very same kind of adversity should it happen again. Exercise is actually a kind of adversity. In fact, that's exactly why we exercise. We want to present our body with adverse conditions to which it must adapt. In the case of a person looking to cut down their bodyfat mass ratio, the adverse condition we are presenting the body with is fewer calories consumed than expended. This forces the body to feed on itself, so to speak.But it's not enough to simply change your eating habits. If the kind of exercise that you do encourages fat retention and discourages muscle retention, then your body will respond by eliminating muscle and retaining fat. In fact, your body would much rather keep the fat and get rid of the muscle if you force it to feed on itself, because muscle requires constant energy expenditure to retain.The best way to exercise and see absolutely no results is to do only low-intensity exercise within the fat-burning zone. Why is this? You are not exerting very much effort with your muscles, so your body will strip them down to only what you use. In order to retain muscle mass, it is important to do high-intensity exercise which tells your body that you need to keep those muscles.In addition to encouraging muscle loss, you are encouraging fat-retention when you exercise within the fat-burning zone. This is because you are relying on fat as a primary source of energy when you exercise. Your body recognizes this and makes sure to keep plenty of fat in storage for the next time you exercise, because it doesn't want to run out of fuel. For this reason, it is important to exercise within the sugar burning zone, because this kind of exercise will encourage sugar retention (within muscles) and discourage fat retention (within fat-cells). And sugar-burning happens, of course, with anaerobic, or high-intensity exercise.At this point, you may be wondering, "how will I ever burn fat if I'm always burning sugar when I exercise?" Simple. You burn far more calories by just being alive than you do by exercising. As long as you make sure that you are consuming fewer calories than you are expending (but don't starve yourself!), your body will make sure that the parts that are used for fuel are appropriate. In other words, you'll be burning fat throughout the rest of the day. One of the primary reasons that it is important to exercise is not so much to burn calories as it is to tell your body how to burn calories.High-Intensity (Anaerobic) Cardiovascular ExerciseYou see, your body wasn't designed to run marathons. As impressive as it is, running marathons is actually a relatively recent phenomenon. If you think back on what it took to survive before Man as a race developed the means to live a sedentary lifestyle, there really is no survival-based reason for running very long distances at a steady pace. In fact, most human survival actions involve spurts of high-intensity exercise. Therefore, in order to maximize the human model of fitness, it makes sense to adhere to this evolutionary mold.So what are the best forms of exercise that fit this mold? Generally speaking, anything that involves sprinting. Now I'm not endorsing doing nothing but sprints until you can't breathe. Far from it. However, you should keep in mind that sprinting expends about seven times the number of calories as walking, which means you need to do very little of it to start seeing an effect. Additionally, sprinting encourages very a low body-fat ratio, which anyone can see anecdotal evidence for on the Olympics. You can also look at running backs, wide receivers and cornerbacks (in American football) as great examples of sprinters. These guys don't have a shred of excess fat on them.Good health requires some form of intensity within your exercise, but it doesn't need to kill you. Perhaps the easiest way to include high-intensity exercise is to alternate between jogging and sprinting. This gives your body varying exercise conditions, which demands high muscle-retention. Your body will have to adapt to more diverse exercise circumstances, and that almost always means that fat-mass will be sacrificed.But high-intensity exercise doesn't have to come only in the form of running. You might instead cycle as hard as you can in between sets of lifting. You might also simply alternate between high-intensity and low-intensity cycling. As long as you are incorporating high-intensity exercise in your workout, you will encourage sugar retention in your muscles and fat loss in your fat-cells, and you also will not have to spend as much time exercising. So dash, my friends, and dash fast!

The Best Exercises For Lean Muscle Mass Gains and Fat Loss
Which bodybuilding exercises are the best ones for lean muscle mass gains and fat loss? This is one of the most common questions that I get asked on almost a daily basis.In weight training, there is a variety of exercises that one can choose from to sculpt the body of your dreams. Results in bodybuilding are generally measured in body composition changes; increased muscle mass or tone, depending on the goal, along with decreases in body fat. The speed at which such changes are acquired depends on the training protocol used, the nutrition plan followed and the amount of rest (good night sleep) that the trainee gets.In order for a training protocol to work at peak efficiency, not only must it be periodized or cycled but it also must include exercises that give you the most stimulation in the minimum amount of time.Different exercises provide different levels of stimulation. Exercises like the leg extensions, while excellent for sculpting the lower part of the quadriceps, produce less of a stimulating effect than an exercise like the squat. The efficacy of an exercise really depends on the exercise's ability to involve the maximum amount of muscle fibers and also on its ability to provide a neuromuscular stimulation (NMS).Neuromuscular stimulation is of crucial importance as it is the nervous system that ultimately sends a signal to the brain requesting to start the muscle growth process. Having said that, how do we determine what the stimulation factor of each exercise is? Such will be the topic of the next section.How To Determine Which Exercises Are Best for Muscle Gain and Fat Loss? – NMS ClassesIn order to rate what the NMS of each exercise is, I borrowed the Class rating system used for classifying the speed of DSL systems (technology used to achieve high speed connections to the Internet through your phone line) and tailored it to fit my purpose. In this system a Class 1 technology has lower speeds than a Class 2 technology.Therefore, in our exercise rating system composed of four classes, a Class 1 exercise yields the lowest NMS (this class is composed of variable resistance machine type of exercises) while a Class 4 exercise yields the highest NMS and is therefore the hardest but most stimulating one. In each class we may also have subclasses such as Class 1a and Class 1b. A Class 1a exercise will yield less NMS than a Class 1b.Class 1aClass 1a exercises are composed of isolation (one joint) exercises performed in variable resistance machines (such as Nautilus) where the whole movement of the exercise is controlled. These type of exercises provide the least amount of stimulation as stabilizer muscles do not need to get involved since the machine takes care of the stabilization process. An example of such an exercise would be the machine curl.Class 1bClass 1b exercises are compound (multi-joint) movements performed in a variable resistance machine. An example of such movement would be the incline bench press performed in a Hammer Strength machine. Since the movement is a compound one, more muscles get involved and therefore the neuromuscular stimulation is higher than that offered by a machine curl for instance. However, the fact that the machine takes care of the stabilization issues limits the growth offered by the exercise.Class 2aClass 2a exercises are composed of isolation (one joint) exercises performed with non-variable resistance machines. An example of such exercise would be the leg extension exercise performed in one of those leg extensions attachments that come with the benches that are sold for home gyms. These attachments lack the pulleys and the cams that would make the exercise a variable resistance exercise. Therefore, the muscles need to get more involved in the movement, something that as a result provides better stimulation.Class 2bClass 2b exercises are composed of basic (multi-joint) exercises performed with non-variable resistance machines. An example of such would be the bench press unit that is attached to the Universal type of machines or a leg press machine that contains no pulleys or cams that would make the exercise easier. Since there are no pulleys or cams to make the exercise easier as you lift the weight, the NMS is higher.
Class 3aClass 3a exercises are isolation (one joint) exercises performed with free weights. An example of such exercise would be a concentration curl performed with a dumbbell. It is still not very clear whether a multi joint exercise performed on a machine offers the same amount or better NMS than the one offered by a free weight isolation exercise. However, for the purposes of this discussion, we will assume that the free weight isolation exercise provides more stimulation as stabilizer muscles come into play (especially if you do the exercise standing up).Class 3bClass 3b exercises, as you probably guessed by now, are multi jointed basic exercises performed with barbell free weights.Class 3cClass 3c exercises are multi jointed basic exercises performed with dumbbell free weights.The barbell exercises provide less NMS as the movement is more restrained as opposed to dumbbells where the weights can go in all types of directions unless all of your stabilizer muscles jump in and constrain the movement. Because of this, dumbbells provide the highest NMS in this category.Class 4Finally, Class 4 exercises, the king of exercises, are free weight exercises where your body moves through space. In other words, any exercise where your torso is the one moving, such as squats, deadlifts, pull-ups, close grip chins, pushups, lunges, and dips, will provide the most stimulation possible and therefore, the fastest results. Haven't you seen at the gym how many people do great amounts of weights in a pulldown machine but have trouble doing pull-ups?The reason for this is that in order for you to perform these type of exercises you need to be capable of not only carrying the added resistance but also involving your bodyweight as well. Therefore, many muscles are called into play in order to perform this feat. If you look at it, by performing dips, chinups, squats and deadlifts you are really hitting every single muscle in your body! These exercises not only give you fast results, but they also create functional strength; in other words strength that can be used for your daily activities.If you are great at performing pull-ups and you go to perform a pulldown you'll see how easy the task of performing a pulldown is. As a matter of fact, depending on your pull-up strength, you might be able to lift the whole stack in most pulldown machines. However, the reverse in not true. While you may be very good at performing pulldowns you may not be able to perform many pull-ups as the strength gained in the pulldown exercise is not as transferable as the one gained in a pull-up. Again, the reason for this phenomenon is NMS.ConclusionNow that you know what exercises are the ones that give you the most bang for your buck, then my recommendations are the following:If you follow very low volume routines (3-7 sets per bodyparts), please choose only exercises in the Class 3b, 3c and 4 region.If you follow a medium volume type of routine (8-13 sets per bodypart), stick mostly to Class 3b, 3c and 4 type of exercises but for those bodyparts where you perform 12 or 13 sets, you may want to incorporate 2 or 3 sets at either the beginning or at the end of the workout from one of the lower classes. This is especially true for legs in which a leg extension movement at the beginning of the workout is a great tool for pre-exhausting the quads or at the end of the workout serves as a great finishing movement.For high volume routines (14-20 sets per bodypart) you can get away with having 1/3 of your routine composed of lower class (Classes 3a and below) exercises.Remember, convincing your body to grow and develop muscle is not an easy task. However it becomes an impossible one if you choose exercises that do not provide a significant NMS effect. Therefore, always choose exercises from the higher classes in order to show your body that you mean business.

Overwhelmed by the Complexity of Options? This May Help
The Benefits Of Using Wireless Payment Terminals
Gone are the days when customers would pay for purchases with cold hard cash. Every minute counts in the contemporary world and whatever business you are in, people are always in search of faster and more flexible solutions. Purchasing with plastic has become run of the mill working procedure in the current world where comfort and security strive for the top spot in everybody's need list. Wireless credit cards allow businesses to accept credit cards wherever transactions happen, making the sales procedure more convenient and quicker. If you are still on the fence on how your business can benefit from the credit card revolution, read on to find out how beneficial these machines are.
You can carry a wireless credit card terminal in various areas similar to the phone, laptop, a music player or a notebook. Wander into most forefront retailers and you will see that it is being utilized as a portable point of sale (POS) machine. Wireless processing is ideal as it enables you to take payment right on the sales floor of your store, at sporting events, food trucks among others. A phone line is not necessary for a lightweight wireless payment terminal to operate. This allows you to quickly accept payment at whatever point and wherever you are operating from.
Do you remember how the customary credit card terminals were fueled? Commonly through a dial-up internet connection by means of a landline telephone. Wireless terminals do not work in a similar manner. Wireless internet-based credit card processing terminals usually take on similar sizes and designs like their dial-up counterparts but they are connected through Wi-Fi internet. Similar to your Wi-Fi connection on your computer, wireless terminals send and receive data immediately. A snappier connection provides speedier transactions enabling you to send you lively customers on their way.
Customers are rightly wary of allowing their cards out of sight and data breaches are high on buyers and merchants worry list. Any retailer who recognizes, stores or transmits cardholder data follow the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards. As much as this might appear to be difficult particularly to small-scale entrepreneurs, conceivable security breaches are significantly diminished. This assures customers that your systems are secure and the shared sensitive information won't be compromised.
The sort of machine used to make the job can have an impact in the sum you pay since every credit card transaction incurs processing costs. You will obtain higher costs if you have an old stationary machine that is unequipped for processing payments in various ways other than the manual entry. Processing costs are lower for 'card-present' transactions meaning the physical is shown for buying instead of its data obtained on the web. With wireless terminals, a greater amount of these exchanges can happen thus sparing cash.

Baguio is Philippines' first UNESCO 'creative city'
maxItemsPerPage: 10
maxPaginationLinks: 10
Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, November 1) — Baguio City is the first Philippine city to be part of a global initiative to improve urban living standards by developing industries based on innovation and creativity.
In a Tuesday press statement, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) said the "Summer Capital of the Philippines" is one of 64 cities worldwide to be included in the Creative Cities Network.
"These new designations showcase an enhanced diversity in city profiles and geographical balance," said UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova.
The Creative Cities Network was created in 2004 "to promote cooperation with and among cities that have identified creativity as a strategic factor for sustainable urban development," according to the UNESCO website.
It uses the framework of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which sets international priorities for economic, social and environmental development.
The UNESCO Creative Cities Network aims to:
strengthen international cooperation between cities
strengthen the creation, production, distribution and dissemination of cultural activities, goods and services
develop hubs of creativity and innovation
fully integrate culture and creativity into local development strategies and plans, among others
The Network covers seven creative fields: Crafts and Folk Arts, Media Arts, Film, Design, Gastronomy, Literature and Music.
Baguio City was included under the Crafts and Folk Arts category.
The city was short-listed into the Network in September 2017.
Aside from being a popular holiday destination — renowned for its chilly climate and numerous pine trees — Baguio City is also recognized for its artistry, with the likes of BenCab and Kidlat Tahimik among the distinguished members of the Baguio Arts Guild.
It is also known for promoting Cordilleran woven art through Narda's. The owner, renowned weaver, Narda Capuyan, had kept the tradition alive by training young women in creating handwoven products.
The city is also home to many Igorots, who are natives of the Cordillera Administrative Region.
Notable handicraft items, which are often sold as souvenir items, include handweaving, wood carving and metalcraft.

Chapter 4: On Common Prophethood
Discourse 1: The Necessity for the Existence of the Prophets
So as to prove that there is Common Prophethood the wise men say, "On the one hand, man has numerous needs such as the necessity for having a wife and children, and food and clothing, etc. On the other hand, man cannot live alone. Rather, he has to live in the society and each person must accept to do some job. One must do business and the other bake bread. Another must be a tailor, and eventually every person must do something, so that people can continue to live their lives.
Everybody must gather together so that man fulfills his need to have a social life. It is not possible for them to spread themselves all over the wildernesses and the jungles. This gathering of mankind is described as civilization, and where everyone comes together is called a city. And for this very reason they say, 'Man is social by nature.' This means that man's nature needs a social life."
Man possesses lust and anger. And because of his lust capacity, everyone wants to attract benefits to himself and fend off harmful things. When people gather together in one place and have decided to live together on the one hand, and on the other hand, they have the two powers of lust and anger - they need laws to moderate these two powers. This is so that they do not engage in acts of oppression, attacking and not observing the laws and invading each other's personal territory. However, if making and passing laws is in the hands of man himself, firstly each group will make laws to benefit itself and harm others. Secondly, he cannot pass laws which are perfectly just.
Thus, since man's laws are never fair, it is necessary that the laws for man's life be designed by God the Exalted - who is the Creator and Possessor of mankind. And the law must be declared to man's society by the means of one of the Divine Prophets. This law is exactly what we call religion. It is that religion which makes man aware of God.
Explanation of the Religion
Therefore, religion is a law which includes a chain of obligatory acts, precepts, laws and commandments which have been made by God the Exalted and announced (to mankind) by one person. In summary, the subject is that man has numerous needs and by the means of those very needs, he needs a society. This social man wants law and this law must be just and divine, so that all the classes of the society benefit from it without oppression. Of course, this important event will not take place without the existence of religion.
So far, man's need for God's law has been proven, however, who must preach this divine law and God's religion. It must be stated in answer to this question, "The only one who can intercede between God and the people, and achieve the highest rank which is called Prophethood is a Prophet. The Prophet is the one worthy to achieve this high rank and become the interceder between God the Exalted and the people, so that he may hand over the divine religion to the people without anything lost or added. Prophethood is the revelation from God to the Prophets.
The Difference between a Prophet, a Messenger and a Prophet who Guides the People of His Time and Those after His Time
If it is the case that a Prophet is also given the mission to guide others, in addition to being a Prophet, he is also a Messenger. And if he was given a mission to invite all of the people of his time and after his time (to the religion), he is called Ulul-Azm. And if he had the position of being the Seal of the Prophets, and his religion continued up until the Resurrection, he is the Seal or Last of the Prophets.1 Thus, the position of being the Seal of the Prophets which is that of His Holiness the Prophet Muhammad (S) is higher than the rest of those ranks.
The Necessity for the Existence of the Prophets as Expressed by Imam as-Sadiq
There are numerous narrations which prove the existence of the Prophethood, including a narration from Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) as follows, "Once one of the deniers of the Prophethood, and an opposer of Islam asked the Imam (a.s.), 'What is your reason to prove the existence of the Prophets?' The Imam (a.s.) replied, 'When it is proven that we have a Creator and Maker who is Wise and His Work is based upon wisdom, we may understand that God the Exalted is Wise, and would never leave man in a state of being uninformed. God cannot be seen or touched by anyone. He does not converse with anyone.2 It is also proven that God the Wise must have Divine Ambassadors to guide the people to what benefits them, and to warn them about what harms them. These Ambassadors teach mankind what to do to have an Eternal Life and make man understand that he should not abandon those duties or he shall be in hardship forever and be destroyed.
Thus it has been proven that God the Exalted has some Divine Ambassadors who are the Prophets being learned and wise men. They are in the highest rank of knowledge. The difference between them and others is that they have been trained in knowledge by the Lord of the world. God the Exalted educated them to train and teach other people.
The Creation and the features of the Prophets are similar to mankind in having eyes, ears and other parts of the body. They walk, eat and in general are the same as other people in these affairs. However, they cannot be compared to other people from the aspect of knowledge and a spiritual state. Thus it has been proven that outstanding individuals are appointed to the post of the Prophethood to guide mankind so that the Divine Decrees and Prohibitions are related to the people."3
The Attributes of the Prophets (Innocence, Knowledge, Power and Patience)
Of course, these divine individuals are not similar to mankind in terms of wisdom, attributes and morality. This means they are the Manifestation of God's Names and Attributes. In particular, the Prophets must have four attributes, so as to achieve being the Manifestation of the Holy Essence of God as follows:
1- The Prophets must be the Manifestation of God's Holiness. For this very reason, they must be Immaculate, so that in action, in thought and in speech they are free from all mistakes and sins. The reason why the Prophets must be Immaculate is that they may be trusted by the society and the people. This is so that they do not take anything away from or add onto the revealed matters, and commit no sins.
2- They must be the Manifestation of God's Wisdom and Knowledge, so that they may receive the religious precepts and decrees from God the Exalted, and then relate them to the people. The reason why the Prophets have the position of Knowledge is that they know all the good and bad things. This is so that they may have a firm footing on which to enjoin the people to do good and admonish them from doing the evil.
3- The Prophets must be the Manifestation of God's Power. This means that they can do things which other people cannot, and which are miracles to prove their Prophethood.
4- The Prophets must be the Manifestation of God's Patience and Mercy. This is so that they may be patient when oppressed as a result of the Manifestation of God the Exalted's Mercy.
The Necessity for the Existence of the Divine Proofs (The Prophets and The Imams) on the Earth up until the Ressurection Day
After Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) stated these remarks about the necessity of the Prophets' Missions and their necessary attributes, then he (a.s.) mentioned the following significant point, "This Divine Proof4 must remain up until the Resurrection. And this Caliph of the Truth from God the Exalted must exist in every era in order to give the people an Ultimatum. No period of time must remain without a Divine Guide and Proof. It is also stated in the Holy Quran,
"…I will create a vicegerent on earth…" The Holy Quran: Al-Baqara 2:30.
God's aim in creating mankind is that the Divine Caliph always exists on the Earth. Just as He states,
"I have only created Genies and men, that they may serve Me." The Holy Quran: Az-Zariyat 51:56.
One of the requirements for these Divine words of God the Glorified is that in every era there must exist a perfect person so that God the Exalted is worshipped as it is should be done. If it is not so, meaning that if God's Caliph, the perfect person and the men of truth do not exist on the Earth, then what the angels stated will come true. As we read in the Holy Quran,
"…They stated: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood? - whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy Holy (name)?"…" The Holy Quran: Al-Baqara 2:30.
Of course, the issue of the Earth not being left free of a Proof is found in the words of the Commander of the Faithful Ali (a.s.) to Kumayl ibn Ziyad Nakhayee – may God be pleased with him – as follows, "This Earth is never free of a Proof. However, that Divine Proof appears at one time and the people see him. And at other times, he is absent and concealed from the people's sight."5
There are also a lot of narrations about this issue concerning that if the Earth is left without a Proof, it will take in all its inhabitants.6 And in some other narrations it is stated that the Earth will engulf its inhabitants with waves, just as the sea covers its inhabitants with waves.7
And in another tradition it is stated that God's Prophet (S) stated, "The stars are the security for the people of the Heavens. When the stars fall down, the people of the Heavens will also fall down. My Household is also the security for the people of the Earth, and when no one from my Household exists on the Earth, all the people of the Earth will also perish."8 Therefore, there is an absolute need for a Divine Proof in this world since the firmness of the Earth and sky is due to the existence of the Divine Proof as we read, "Due to the blessing of the Divine Proof, the daily bread is given to the people. By the means of his existence, the Heavens and the Earth are firmly maintained."9
Therefore, today the firmness of the sky and Earth is due to the mediation of the Immaculate Imam of the Time (May God the Sublime expedite his noble appearance): Even though that Imam - May our souls be sacrificed for him - is apparently not amongst the people, so that they may make use of his existence. However, his very existence is a blessing for the people from God.
From amongst the words of Mr. Nasir ud-Din Toosy we read, "The very existence of the Imam of the Time - May God the Sublime expedite his noble appearance - is a blessing from God and his involvement in worldly affairs is another blessing. We ourselves are the ones who put off the involvement of His Holiness (a.s.) in worldly affairs, and are deprived of the blessing of his presence."10
This means that the people do not yet deserve to benefit from the appearance of His Holiness - the Riser (a.s.)11, and the filling up of the Earth with justice by him (a.s.) after it has been filled up with oppression. Thus, the loss is ours, not that if Imam al-Mahdi's (a.s.).

I think it's about time for this...
Anyway. Before, the only wiki I frequently used was The Book Of Aberoth Wiki. Then, one day, on the featured wiki section at the very bottom of a page, (Which Is Gone Now, I Think?) I saw, among others, a big picture of Dolan, and a caption that said Teh Meme Wiki. I though 'Oh, Cool. A Wiki About Memes! Maybe I'll go on it...'. A few days later, I went on it, And Discovered that there was no Page on Sanes. After adding the page, I went around adding more and more stuff, and now I'm the Bureaucrat, and have over 1,300 edits!Read more >
Wow! I'm really making a lot of edits! (Actually I have more than 800, according to Special:Listusers.)Read more >
Uh oh... I better go edit something!Read more >
Well, time really seems to fly by! Only about one month ago (Or less!) I joined this wiki to add a page on Sanes, and now I'm a Content/Discussions/Thread Moderator and Rollback with 350 Edits! I hope that as time goes by I'll continue to contribute, I probably (Certainly!) will.
P.S. I have 1371 global edits across wikia! (I think...) P.P.S. This is the only wiki I have posted blogs about how many edits I have where people don't just answer with stuff like [[1]]. (The guy that posted that only had three edits, and they were all insulting me or vandalizing articles.)

Bye now.

Monumento is the second publication dedicated to the work of Alexandre da Cunha.
Da Cunha's practice is predominantly based on ideas of the readymade and found objects which he re-signifies, inviting viewers to see them with a new perspective. In recent years, Da Cunha has taken these ideas to a monumental scale, with commissions of public site-specific works in Boston, London, and São Paulo as well as other large outdoor works in US, Europe and South America.
These large-scale installations constitute the core of Monumento. The book also showcases a series of smaller table sculptures, as well as a selection of Samplings, a series of works on paper which flirt with notions of collage, appropriation and the public realm.
Monumento includes an essay by Fernanda Brenner and a conversation between Da Cunha, Phillip King and Jenni Lomax; the book is designed by GUNMAD and edited by Maria M. P. de Pontes.

Feisal Abdul Rauf (non-profit organizations whose stated missions are to enhance the discourse on Islam in society.
He has condemned the 9/11 attacks as un-Islamic and called on the U.S. government to reduce the threat of terrorism by altering its Middle Eastern foreign policy.[5][6] Author Karen Armstrong, among others, has praised him for his attempts to build bridges between the West and the Muslim world.[7] In 2010, Sufi Imam Rauf received national attention for his plans to build Park51, an Islamic Community Center, two blocks from Ground Zero in Lower Manhattan.
Rauf was born in Kuwait. His father, Egyptian Imam and Sunni scholar Muhammad Abdul Rauf (1917–2004), moved with the younger Rauf to New York City in the 1960s. The elder Rauf assisted with efforts to create the multimillion dollar Islamic Cultural Center of New York, the first building designed as a mosque in New York City, which took 25 years to complete and opened in 1991.[8] His father, Abdul Rauf, was actively involved in the American Civil Rights Movement with Malcolm X.[9] Rauf studied physics at Columbia University, where he earned his bachelor's degree in nuclear engineering in 1969,[8][10] before earning a master's degree in plasma physics at Stevens Institute in Hoboken, New Jersey.[11]
After finishing college, Rauf focused on religion, and became the leader of a New York City mosque.[11] Rauf has written three books on Islam and its place in contemporary Western society, including What's Right with Islam, later printed in paperback with the changed title What's Right with Islam is What's Right with America.[12] Rauf served as imam of Masjid al-Farah in New York City's Tribeca district between 1983 and 2009.[2]
Rauf is a friend of the Nur Ashki Jerrahi Sufi Order, and in 1983, he was appointed prayer leader at their Masjid al-Farah mosque.[13] In 1997, he founded the American Sufi Muslim Society (ASMA),[14] which has since been renamed the American Society for Muslim Advancement. Rauf worked to improve relationships between American society, the American Muslim community and the wider Muslim world. He founded the American Society for Muslim Advancement (originally named the American Sufi Muslim Association.[15])
The organization is now headed by his wife.[2] He is a member of the Council of 100 Leaders (C-100) on West-Islamic World Dialogue at the Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As CEO of Cordoba Initiative, Rauf coordinates projects that emphasize the bonds that connect the Muslim world and the West.
Speaking at his New York mosque in 2004, Imam Feisal said: "The Islamic method of waging war is not to kill innocent civilians. But it was Christians in World War II who bombed civilians in Dresden and Hiroshima, neither of which were military targets." He also said that there could be little progress in Western-Islamic relations until the U.S. acknowledged backing Middle East dictators and give an "American Culpa" speech to the Muslim world, because there are "an endless supply of angry young Muslim rebels prepared to die for their cause and there [is] no sign of the attacks ending unless there [is] a fundamental change in the world".[32]
Responding to a question during an interview on New York [33]
CAIR, and criticized by some other Muslims such as Sufi mystic Stephen Suleyman Schwartz, director of the Center for Islamic Pluralism in Washington.[35]
Supporters of the project point out that two mosques already have firm roots in Lower Manhattan and that one of them was founded in 1970, pre-dating the World Trade Center.[36] Controversy over the location ensued, and in an interview with Larry King on September 8, 2010 Rauf was asked "...given what you know now, would you have said, listen, let's not do it there? Because it sounds like you're saying in retrospect wouldn't have done it." Rauf answered: "If I knew this would happen, this would cause this kind of pain, I wouldn't have done it. My life has been devoted to peacemaking."[37] On September 12, 2010 on This Week with Christiane Amanpour, Abdul Rauf repeated that if complaints had been raised in December 2009 when the project was front page news in The New York Times, he would have moved it, but at that time there was broad support for it, which did not change until May. He furthermore expressed concern that a move would be used by radicals internationally to claim that "Islam is under attack in the Western world".[38]
On January 14, 2011, Park51 developer Sharif el-Gamal surprised Rauf by unilaterally announcing that Rauf would no longer speak for or raise money for Park51, replacing him with Imam Abdallah Adhami. The split was attributed to a number of differences in vision for the project—Rauf had wanted a larger interfaith center named Cordoba House, but el-Gamal had changed the name to Park51, wanted it to primarily serve Muslims, and to have a local scope. The removal of Rauf from this leadership role raised concerns that the project would be unable to raise the necessary funds to build the planned center.[39] On January 29, Rauf announced that he would move the Cordoba House to a different site if one were offered to him and if the new site was "on par, or even better" than the current Park51 site.[40]
Rauf owns several apartment buildings in Hudson County, New Jersey, including four in Union City, and one in North Bergen in which he lives. By 2010, numerous residents of Ruf's properties in Union City had alleged that those properties have fallen into disrepair over the course of the prior several years, with some of the residents attributing this to time Rauf spends on his activities in Lower Manhattan.[11] On September 8, 2010, Union City Mayor Brian P. Stack, who criticized Rauf as a "slumlord", announced court actions to have a custodial receiver take over management of these properties,[41] and the creation of a Quality of Life Task Force to identify 15 apartment buildings in need of renovations, including Rauf's.[42]
A September 15, 2010 hearing revealed that following a September 7 inspection that determined imminent hazards, police began monitoring two of Rauf's buildings, due to inoperable fire alarms and sprinklers, and failure on Rauf's part to hire a private fire patrol. Judge Thomas Olivieri gave Rauf's lawyers until September 23 to produce plans and evidence of efforts to address these violations, lest Rauf face loss of control over the buildings.[43] On November 9, Judge Olivieri placed the Central Avenue property into temporary custodial receivership, with $7,000 in rent payments held in escrow from Rauf's attorney set aside to pay for the repairs.[44][45]
According to 2010 reports by the Bergen Record, Rauf met with U.S. Senator Robert Menendez around 1991 when Menendez was Mayor of Union City, to request state funds to renovate three of his properties. As a result, Rauf received $80,000 in city funds, $384,000 from the Union City Community Development Agency, $1.3 million in construction loans from Hudson County's Affordable Housing Trust Fund, and $630,900 from the state. Rauf was also sued for fraud in 2008 by his one-time business partner, James Cockinos, over a $250,000 mortgage that Cockinos gave Rauf for his Central Avenue property, ownership of which Rauf then transferred to Sage Developments for a second $650,000 mortgage. Rauf and his wife, Daisy Khan, made payments to Cockinos for 11 years, but ceased after a fire damaged the property. The two parties settled out of court.[11]
Fareed Zakaria praised Rauf for speaking of "the need for Muslims to live peacefully with all other religions", for emphasizing the commonalities among all faiths, for advocating equal rights for women and opposing laws that in any way punish non-Muslims.[46]
Walter Isaacson, head of The Aspen Institute, says Rauf "has participated at the Aspen Institute in Muslim-Christian-Jewish working groups looking at ways to promote greater religious tolerance. He has consistently denounced radical Islam and terrorism, and promoted a moderate and tolerant Islam."[47]

In the summer of 2014, I found myself in helpless tears as I watched a country I loved succumb to the trauma of an Ebola epidemic.
In 2012, I lived and worked as a local girl's club co-creator and organizer in Yekepa, Liberia and visited Monrovia on numerous occasions to gather ideas from other organizations. In order to create a successful and culturally appropriate girl's club, I spent a lot of time gathering information on Liberia's culture, art scene and history.
While I watched the news from my home in the U.S., I could vividly picture the extreme chaos and fear that was overtaking the same streets and alleys that I had, only two years before, danced and played along with my young Liberian comrades.
Having recently graduated from George Washington University's master's in art therapy program with a focus on trauma and international work, I began analyzing and predicting the extreme emotional and psychological impact this situation was going to have on the children of Liberia.
Research shows that if childhood trauma is not successfully intervened with psychosocial support, it affects all aspects of a child's well being and future development. With this combined understanding of trauma, expressive arts therapy and Liberia, it didn't take me too long before I couldn't sit idle any longer.
By October, I began to evaluate what I had at my disposal. I had recently begun my three-year doctoral program for public health at East Tennessee State University, was an art therapist, and had a unique perspective and connection to Liberia.
I called an old colleague who had lived in Liberia for two years and shared my ideas. Within two weeks of that crucial call, Jessi Hanson was on a plane to Monrovia equipped solely with my idea of building an emergency therapeutic-based expressive arts program for children most affected by Ebola, our mutual connections to the country, her incredible strengths in program development and our shared passion for the children of Liberia.
During Jessi's one-month stay, we built a successful program, which was first implemented in a children's isolation center through the guidance of Liberia's Ministry of Gender and Social Welfare.
The program trained female Ebola survivors to use culturally adapted expressive art therapy techniques to help support children in 21-day isolation through activities that build healthy relationships, explore resiliency and hope, help children express emotions and grief and provide a safe place for children to laugh and heal.
Six months and $3,000 later
Within six months — and with $3,000 in donations — the organization and nonprofit dubbed Playing to Live! was successfully working with children who have survived or have been orphaned by Ebola.
After our initial program in the isolation center, Playing to Live! hired and trained two female staff, one of whom is an Ebola survivor herself. The staff works in communities two to three times a week with large populations of children most highly affected by Ebola. Due to our speedy development, we as an organization are still developing outreach and fundraising strategies, so we have learned to stretch every dollar donation.
We hit a niche, and I still cannot believe the amount of impact and success we have had.
Playing to live
The background and foundation of Playing to Live! has been my personal career goal for many years, though I didn't anticipate that it would happen when it has.
In six short months, Playing to Live! has grown and matured into a global organization. We have built our focus on providing an expressive arts program meant to be adapted to each culture in which it's used. Through our work and evaluations in Liberia, the clinical team has quickly begun to build the foundation for this global reach, and we are excited about our second country implementation in South Africa this summer, where I will be spending nine weeks through a partnership with a local organization and my doctoral work.
The clinical team creates activities that support healthy relationship building, creating safe places, target resiliency and build a space for trauma healing from their respected professions — currently yoga therapy, art therapy, play therapy and child life. The activities are stored in an "activity database" but are adapted by local community members to create relevance and significance.
We work with closely with local organizations to continue to build programs, and our activities are currently performed through training non-clinical community leaders in how to support children experiencing trauma. We follow the progress of the programs through evaluation and weekly updates from the local staff, and we are overwhelmed with the current excitement from Liberia and now South Africa.
Six months later
Six months feels like a lifetime.There are times when reality hits me, and I can't believe the amount of progress and success that has come from Playing to Live! It has been by far the hardest journey I have taken thus far, and I realize that it's because this work is my heart and soul. When it hurts, I hurt, and when there are days where everything seems to fall into place, I feel my heart sing.
I have gone from being a new art therapy graduate to a doctoral student, and now to a business woman in the nonprofit world. The fact is, though, that I continue to be amazed at the incredible difference art expression and play can have on a person in trauma.

When I was at the airport getting ready to depart for Belfast, I made the most of the duty free by spending a small fortune at MAC.
I've always missed the opportunity to snap up their limited edition brushes when they went on sale in Belfast. As soon as I set eyes on this stunning face set by the talented artist and designer Rebecca Moses, I knew I had to have them. This one of the biggest collections of the season featuring face kits, lip bags, brush kits and eye bags and it will be launched before the MAC Summer 2013 Illustrated Collection.
Her collaborations with leading unique visionaries, such as Vera Wang, Kartell, and designer footwear company Fratelli Rosetti have captured her unique flair for illustrations. The set contains a power, foundation, stipple and concealer brush that comes in a gorgeous make up case.
The brushes are so soft and the perfect size for carrying them around or when I'm travelling.
I'm over the moon with my set and I can't wait to use them. It's great to see a fabulous artist and designer like Rebecca collaborate with an exciting brand such as MAC.
I have a few holiday posts coming up, so stay tuned!

Project SEARCH is run in partnership with Fosse Way School, the Royal United Hospital and Virgin Care. Students study and complete internships at the Royal United Hospital, supported by a teacher and job coach with the aim of gaining employment at the end of the year.
