Every Thursday 1-7pm in Hangar 1 (tentaja)
Bike project NUK Tempelhof in cooperation with THFwelcome: Together with the refugees, we also repair bicycles and make them safe for riding. For the refugees these bicycles are very useful, because they have the possibility to overcome the isolation in the hangars and participate in the urban life – whether for the road to work, to school, to meet friends and relatives or simply take an ride.
With metal sponges and creep oil, we clean out rusty parts and make them standard, patch hoses or mount new brakes. Additional tools, unused wheel or wheel parts can be brought to the former airport.
At the moment the bike workshop takes place every Thursday from 1 to 7pm in Hangar 1 (tentaja). You are welcome to visit and join us.
We are looking forward to everyone who wants to get involved: firstname.lastname@example.com

Senior-Friendly Technologies
Interaction Design for Senior Users
Henry Been-Lirn Duh (Author 1), Ellen Yi-Luen Do (Author 2), Mark Billinghurts (Author 3), Francis Quek ( Author 4) and Vivian Chen Hsueh-Hua ( Author 5) Sharifah Nadia BT Syed Khastudin: Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, email@example.com
Interaction design in Human Computer Interaction means to produce a product that can support human being in their everyday tasks and daily life. Human being can be classified into many categories and this paper currently specific only for a Senior Citizen or in another word is Elderly. The elderly represent a people who can benefit a technology from a health application or even playing games online through mobile phone or desktop. But from the technology these days we can see that most of the applications or even the hardware are most towards young generations which shows that the attention towards the elderly has not been considered at all. In this paper the authors were focusing on how the elderly consume their mobile phone games. This is due to most of the elderly use at least one mobile phone each and will only use it for call and message purposes. By conducting a study on this matter at least the industry knows how to make their product more interactive towards their potential customer including the elderly. Mobile games design , technology , elderly , mobile phone , design , games I. INTRODUCTION
According to the United Nation (UN), the age for elderly was 60 years old and above. While there are generally used a definitions of elderly age, there is no universal conformity on the age at which a person becomes old. The familiar call of a calendar age to mark the starting point of old age assumes similarity with natural age, however at the same time, it is generally acknowledged that these two are not necessarily identical.[1] Even though the world population ageing is currently increasing, the technology still need to be used by the senior citizens. Being part of the technology users, the needs of this group of people should be taken into consideration. Hence, a study has been conducted to introduce a human-centered methodology for pioneering a game play, according to the ethnographic principles and participatory design. This methodology was applied in a project for designing game concepts for and with senior citizens. The study started off by observing and exploring their usual haunt, researching what positive experiences arise in their daily life. These observed passions then become the input for brainstorming activity between the senior citizen and the IT researchers. The seniors and researcher generated the game-ideas together and, as a result, co-designed the selected ideas into the game ideas. The outcomes of this methodology are stimulating game concepts, directly transplant on the passions and admirations of the senior towards what they have been contributed. [2] From this thoughts, the researcher will get vital elements on how to produce something that can represent the meaning of significant fun from the eyes of the senior citizens. II.ISSUES
Most of the time the problem faced by the seniors were the phone features which was giving a difficulties to them when they are in the middle of excitement. Due to this matter it will caused a discouragement and makes them feels abandoned. The studies from Wijnand & Herman [3] is to look further than the traditional perception of usability requirements dictate by age-related functional restrictions, regarding the design opportunities that prevail to create digital games that will suggest attractive content shared with an...

I have been given the task of evaluating our phone system... We currently have 3 offices. Our main office is connected to the other 2 via 25mb fiber and 1.5mb T1. Our main office has 16 users, 2nd office 27 users, and 3rd office 4 users. Our phone system is the NEC Electra Elite IPK. I know that right now we have all of our phone systems connected via voice T1s. I would like to elimnate those and piggy back on the data 25mb fiber and 1.5 T1. Any help would great be appreciated.

Define your most basic requirements first. How many lines, must they be physical, etc. Trying out a true, complete VoIP solution like Asterisk is completely free if you don't need to connect to physical lines and not that bad even if you do. You can put it in and run it side by side to see how you like it before making a commitment.
We like Elastix as an easy package of Asterisk.
We just went through this, so I have a little experience.
You've made the right first step by coming to your network of peers here at Spicworks! You may also want to do some research to familiarize yourself with VoIP, if you are not a telephone expert.
Then, define the specifics of what you want the system to do: feature sets, connections, etc. GET YOUR USERS INVOLVED HERE! We'll call this an RFP, even if your company does not require RFP's. Prioritize those things that are must haves (not having this particular feature is a deal breaker), nice to haves (you might be willing to pay for them if the price is right), no way Jose (you will not be willing to pay for this feature no matter the cost). Some vendors will try to convince you to buy their product because it offers additional features. But, if you don't need those features, it's not really a bargain. Having a prioritized list keeps you focused and keeps vendors on the same page so that you can compare apples to apples.
Then find telecommunications vendors in your area and invite them in. They will all come in and do an assessment. They'll go over the available features and possibilities with you. I was very surprised at what was actually possible after talking to the vendors. KEEP YOUR USERS INVOLVED HERE!
Update your RFP based on the new information and share it with all the vendors.
Get everything in writing! Even if the salesperson promised you something, it won't happen unless you have it in black & white. Be very specific - my idea of a rack was not the same as my vendor's idea of a rack!
Right now, the economy is not so good and vendors are hungry. Use this! Don't be afraid to let Vendor A know Vendor B's bottom line price. BUT DON'T LIE! You're building a long term relationship here and no relationship can prosper built on lies.
Please, please if you go with a true VOIP system make sure it has a dedicated switching system! I might also suggest using an IDS on that network.
Other than that the above statements from the other posters are very valid. I've never attempted one like Asterisk. We put together a proposal for a VOIP system. The major suggestion I have (other than switching) is to make sure you show the cost relevance between POTS and VOIP (including dedicated POTS lines and forwarded lines from one location to another). Be aware that, despite my personal feelings and thoughts, VOIP is not seen as "secure" in the security field. At least not at the .gov level. Those are just some thoughts.

Good suggestions above.
Poll your users.
Determine what you currently have on your network that you want to leverage.
One of the big things people forget here is to also evaluate the dial tone connectivity in the same investigation!
Many times we have been able to seriously cut down the phone bill by implementing a VoIP solution.
We have successfully installed the AltiGen VoIP IP PBX while reducing the monthly ongoing phone bill to help fund the new solution.
One think to look at is the NIC in the computer you are connection the phone to, Megabit or Gigabit. You will want to match the phones speed with the computer. Also where the phones are going to be places and where the network drops are, you may need longer network cables to go to the phones then back to the compute. If you are not going to use a VOIP switch, each phone will need a power block.
We have been using ShoreTel phone system for about two years and are very happy with the system. We have three sites and 124 phones ShoreTel, IP560, IP560G, IP230, IP110, and 6 SIP phones.
Here is a link I have found handy www.voip-news.com/faq/voip-migration-faq/
I'd like to echo ehat Ken Eisman stated - the first step is to define your requirements, - do you need DDI, Voicemail, integration with CRM software, call recording software compatibility & costs etc etc.
Alot of these are pretty much standard, but you may have some oddities, and these are where the differences came in. I upgraded out phone system back in April from an ancient NEC PABX to a Cisco Call Manager. One of the rivers for going with cisoc was the freely available API's for integrating it in to Microsoft CRM, Mitel for example would have needed software develeopment costs (according to our supplier anyway).
I think one of the key elements its to make sure your switching infrastructure is as good asit can be, I was lucky and got the budget to replace all data switches and routers etc with new Cisco POE kit so it's cisco end to end, but if for example you go with an Avaya IP office, I would try to put in Avaya end to end - sure they're all supposed to be fully compatible, but as soon as something goes wrong you know what would get blamed.
Don't go for the power bricks if at all avoidable, they;'re a real pain, POE is much easier to work with, and make sure the handsets you go for have a data switch to connect your PC to - not all of them do.
There are lots of systems out there, I avoided Asterix as I'd heard a lot of stories about vendors happy to install it but then thinking the support is up to you, as it's open source - and I prefer my phone system provider to provide the maintenance. Maybe that's a UK thing though.
+1 on data switch on phone - very handy. Keeps from adding additional data drops
+1 on PoE. More than likely you will need to evaluate your network infrastructure to handle VoIP so take the plunge and get PoE switches.
Don't get locked in to a closed system. My BCM is VoIP but compatible with NOTHING other than Nortel.
During this time, consider Exchange or email server integration/compatibility.
Just a few more ideas.
Don't forget to check the Better Business Bureau's website for complaints/comments on the vendor if you are using one.
I also check references. I have actually had some vendors give a relative's business and drinking buddy's cell phone for a reference..
Good luck... There are lots of good suggestions here....

We have the same phone system. If I'm not mistaken, that should be VOIP capable, right?
I'll give a thumbs up for Asterisk in a small office situation like yours. It's great to try out since it's free & open source. I tried it in its early days when you needed a fair comfort level with Linux, but now they sell it on appliances that are fairly easy to get up and running yourself.
Wanting to push most of the traffic over the WAN links is a great idea - but don't forget about disaster recovery and caller ID. If you collapse all of the systems into routing over the WAN and out the home office, what happens if their WAN link goes down? You might want to convert those voice T1s into a couple of POTS lines locally so they have some way to make calls if the WAN goes down. Plus, if they are in different area codes, you might have to do special magic in the main system and with your ISP to get their calls to go out of your main voice T1s with the proper caller ID.
I am a former VoIP engineer. I worked for an asterisk company for a few years before becoming the IT manager at my current endeavour. I ripped out a busted asterisk box, replaced with PBIAF (PBX in a flash), ran into hardware issues, upgraded the hardware and changed to Elastix (better system)
Elastix is great, contains PBIF for the PBX aspect of asterisk and a lot of other stuff on top like hylafax for faxing. If you know Linux you can confgiure sendmail to relay to your server(s) there by allowing email integration. The cell phone rolling to users out of the office, the recording of phone calls in and out at 12k+ calls weekly, being able to add Cisco, Polycom, Aastra phones etc wihtout licensing is all huge. We use a fractional PRI and it is sufficient; when I started I bumped up the DS0's for more capacity. I think with something like fiber you should check out a product from someone I recommend being in the field call Commpartners. They sell a direct connect T1 based service; because you have plenty of high end bandwitdh you could have a tunnel or some type of VPN setup to not only encrypt your Voice but allow a direct connect to a redudant SIP host. There are alot of other SIP based host out there as well. I think, like programming, you need to understand the very aspects of what the users are used to (build the program to them not visa versa) and how you can engage them for new technologies, but also how to save, or at least break even, while providing new age reliability and features.
This is a daunting task but if you put enough effort into it, you can, and I am sure will, get this right.
Getting a knowledgeable and reliable reseller is probably the best thing you can do. They will be able to guide you, and if they are really good, save you money and increase functionality. Check references!
My recent experience with Allworx:
Our users love it (my primary concern) and so do I - double bonus :)
I put in a Cisco VOIP solution here two years ago and it has run very smoothly. While I don't think that Cisco is the only one to look at it definitely was the one for us.
I would recommend a book called "Taking Charge of your VoIP Project" by John Q. Walker. It is a cisco press book, but it is vendor neutral and covers everything you will need to know and do. It's quite thorough and I would have been lost without it.
Select your vendor as much on how well you think you can work with them as well as the equipment. If you have superb equipment but the vendor is a nightmare to work with you will be hating life.
I would also suggest a high quality network tester. I bought a Fluke CableIQ Qualification Tester. It does the bare bones but isn't too expensive.
Spend sometime looking at your over all network infrastructure and if feasible and in budget make any necessary network changes prior to your VOIP project.
As others have said stick with one vendor if you can for all of your network equipment. I have two places, our Lab and a shipping trailer, that have Linksys's instead of Cisco switches. While the phones work getting the VLANs to work correctly across the entire network was a pain because of the difference.
Label everything on your network if you haven't done so already.
Plan on lots of over time :)

Preserved Fish Roe — Aatheli Garab
I am sharing the process described by my Great Grandmother, Dosibai Wankadia.

Zoroastrian Genealogy: From Ancient Iran to India
In earlier times, both Iranians and Indians were part of the same tribe identified as the Proto-Indo-Iranians belonging to the Indo-European family. With the roots in the Caucasoid, that is the Indo-European family, it then branches out to form the Nordics, Alpines and the Mediterranean. The Alpines bifurcate into Armenoids and the Iranoids that is the Proto Indo-Iranian family roughly around the 4th Millennium BC. They wandered and settled on the southern Russian Steppes.Read More »

After attaining certain stability in Sanjan, the Parsis started settling in other towns along the coast of Gujarat. They settled in Navsari, Surat, Khambhat, Bharuch, Ankleshwar, and Tarapore while maintaining trade contacts with Iran. Records show that from 900 AD onwards the Parsis had settled comfortably in these towns and had become quite prosperous. Several years of peace, which had helped the Parsis survive and prosper economically and culturally were followed by 200 years of continuous disturbances. Despite these unfavorable conditions, the Parsis managed to keep their distinctive nature intact.Read More »

Today I've got an Eyeshadow Palette to review, this Eyeshaodw Palette is by Sample Beauty and seems to me like it is a dupe of the Morphe palettes so I was quite intrigued to see what it was like. The Palette cost £15.00 and is a Shimmer Palette, when I received the Palette I was quite shocked at how much pigment there was! I loved all the shades in this Palette and I was super excited to try it🌟
As you can see the Palette is like a dupe of 35O Palette by Morphe. All the shades are shimmers and they are all quite bright which I do like. The look I created below I used the shade called freshly toasted in the Zoeva Cocoa blend Palette in my crease. Then I used the first shade on the bottom row on the outer corner of my lid and blended into the crease and the pink shade which is on the third row at the end on the rest of my lid. To do my eyeliner I used the Rimmel Exaggerate Eyeliner and the Benefit Mascara!🎀
Let me know in the comments your thoughts and whether there is anything you would like me to review! Also if you liked my post make sure you gave it and like and follow me I would appreciate it a lot!🎀💕 Until next time, Beccy x

Mustard and calico, tan and leather, tortoiseshell and Popular Penguins... and of course the odd luxurious sparkle.

Sharing Dance 2018 (National Ballet School)
Join Canada's National Ballet School and Dance Nova Scotia on June 10th at the Central Library's Paul O'Regan Hall for Sharing Dance Day 2018.
Every year Canada's National Ballet School (NBS) commissions the creation of an original piece of Canadian choreography and supports individuals and communities across the country as they learn and perform the piece on NBS Sharing Dance Day. Dance Nova Scotia is excited to be taking part in this national celebration of dance, and we invite you to join us! This year there is an afternoon of festivities at the Central library in HRM.
We believe that dance is a fun and physical way for people of all ages to get moving. We also believe that NBS's Sharing Dance Day will encourage more people to participate in dance classes in their communities. Our goal is to help Canadians to recognize and value dance as an effective way to get healthy, active and artistically engaged.
So why get involved in NBS Sharing Dance Day?
- It's a fun way to demonstrate the relevance of dance to all Canadians
- It's an opportunity to support and connect with your community
- You will be part of a national celebration of Canadian dance
This year, GeNie Baffoe and Michelle Olson, two talented choreographers representing different styles of dance, geographic locations and cultural backgrounds, collaborated to create a unique work that explores the importance of environmental stewardship. CHECK OUT THIS YEAR'S CHOREOGRAPHY
Learn more about THE CHOREOGRAPHERS.
Check out the choreography and drop in one of the instructional sessions that will be taking place and be sure to join us in the Paul O'Regan Hall to join in the dancing.
Your impact:
By getting involved in learning the NBS Sharing Dance Day choreography, you are joining a community of dance studios across the country, helping to promote the benefits of dance for people of all ages.
Free instructional videos and resources are available online to support your involvement. You can choose to perform the choreography at your year-end recital, partner with a community group to dance in a public park, or even join in the fun at the Halifax Central Library on June 10th.The NBS, along with Dance Nova Scotia and other local partners will be celebrating Sharing Dance Day in the O'Regan Room! There will be lots of dancing featuring local dancer groups and dancers from the region. As well, Genie Baffoe will be holding instruction sessions to teach the choreography and the day will end with one big, wonderful communal dance of the special choreography. If you can't make it to the Central Library you can create your own NBS Sharing Dance Day; maybe an intimate celebration within a single class or a larger event that includes friends and family members - we encourage each school to implement the choreography in the way that works best for them.
Remember if you are in Halifax on June 10th at the O' Regan Hall in the Central Library on Spring Garden Road, 2 - 4PM

LinkedIn, an online community for networking with colleagues, peers, bosses and recruiters, is a career networking website that boasts 85 million members and continues to gain popularity worldwide, according to a recent AFP article.
In an age where job-seekers and employers alike turn to the internet for job postings and qualified candidates, digital resumes on websites such as LinkedIn and VisualCV become invaluable feeds of information, opportunity and outreach. They also provide a form of social networking outside of very personalized Facebook and Twitter accounts, which would be a step in the right direction for many college students seeking post-graduate employment.
Furthermore, if you have built up a portfolio of multimedia productions, projects or web designs, digital resumes on VisualCV can also help to display a dynamic body of work and impress a potential employer. Showing you are technology savvy and up on the latest in social media might just give you an edge in the extremely competitive job-market.
So if you are serious about getting a job, check out LinkedIn and VisualCV.

King Street Oyster Bar got started because Rick was tired of driving to DC to get good oysters. He and his best friend Jorge were ready for something new, and so was the town of Leesburg, their home for 25 years. They partnered to open up their first location in historic downtown Leesburg, VA, in 2016.
Now, King Street Oyster Bar specializes in bringing fresh oysters from both the West and East Coasts of the US and Canada to the communities we call home. On any given day, we offer 10+ varieties, which we get no more than 24 hours out of water from the East Coast, and no more than 48 hours out of water from the West Coast. It's a quality and freshness you can taste.
Our menu also offers other creative seafood dishes and American-style fare with fresh, relatable ingredients, and a $5 happy hour menu every day of the week with inventive cocktails and craft brews.

Moth origami lampshade in grey by Studio Snowpuppe
So, here's my next grey post in my celebration of grey kids rooms colour schemes this week on Kids Room Style File.
I think lampshades are one of the most difficult things to shop for, especially for ceiling lights, because they are such a feature of a room. So,it's important to get it right.
If you are planning on rocking a grey colour scheme for your kids room, you won't go far wrong with this modernist, Moth origami lampshade in grey by Studio Snowpuppe. Not least because it's handmade, which is always such a lovely thing to know.
Almost unbelievably, the Moth origami lampshade is folded from one single piece of special Shade paper and the folds play with the light to help it fall in interesting ways. I also love that you can choose the colour of the cord to complement or contrast with the lampshade.
The Moth comes in a couple of sizes, the one pictured above is the XL size, which is 40cm height x 40cm diameter, it fits around a standard energy-saving lightbulb.
You can find out more about the lampshade and check it out in different sizes and colours over on the Studio Snowpuppe Etsy Store.

Instead of my usual Friday Flowers, I wanted to share with you some of the spectacular vineyard colors that are carpeting the hills of Northern Sonoma County this autumn. Literally in every direction that you look around here you see all these amazing fall colors, as the wineries in the area gather up their grapes and are now in the midst of their "crush" season...
Cloverdale is at the northern-most edge of Somona County, and just a little way up Hwy 101 you cross into Mendocino County, where there are vineyards, too:
In the hills above Cloverdale, I've been fascinated by the vineyards that, seen from a distance, remind me of pieces of variegated corderoy:
I stopped along a Cloverdale road this week and took these photos, starting up close and then panning outwards to the larger panorama...
And here's a view looking southeast, towards what I think is Geyser Peak (since Geyser Peak Winery is just below it along the highway in Geyserville).
And would you believe that after a day of taking shots of golds and oranges and reds, the evening sky decided to give the vineyards a little competition by ending the day with this blood-red sunset:
May your weekend be filled with dazzling Fall colors - wherever you live!

In the underground path, one can see Gehn's Scribe running away and mounting the maglev to the Jungle Island.
This L-shaped island has a wide plateau covered with water illuminated by lamps, and rimmed by Wahrk tusks. A path passes through a formation of spikes and a gigantic "miniature" map of the Rivenese islands. An elevator leads to another plateau 100 ft above, with an artificial lake housing the Map Room, and Fire Marble Dome connected by a catwalk. A Wahrk can be heard bumping below.
A balcony overlooks the gigantic map of the islands, and a button controls which of the island is "selected" by raising Rivenese water on its surface, forming its geophysical features.
From the plateau, one can see below the pathway, a lower level. A north-south path leads to Gehn's Survey Room.
Places of interestEdit
- Tram to Book Assembly Island
- Located to the north of the island, it is connected to the balcony outside Gehn's Laboratory in that island. Unlike other tram stations, there are two exits in this; each exit is accessible according to where the tram is rotated.
- Tram to Jungle Island
- Located to the underground level, to the east shore of the island, it is connected to the "secret" station in Jungle Island, below the Wahrk idol, presumably used only by Gehn and his minions, like his Scribe.
- Map Room
- A metallic structure floating in the middle of the elevated lake. It has a rotting spike matrix. According to which island is selected in the panel outside, it displays parts of the island on the matrix. It an be used to locate the exact coordinates of all Fire Marble Domes.
- Fire Marble Dome
- Situated in the elevated lake, it is marked with the symbol of ORANGE. It houses a linking book to Age 233. The kinetoscope across the catwalks has been bent by a Wahrk.
- Elevator
- Accessible by the corridor of the other side of the tram station, it is located in a pentagon-shaped chamber, passes through an elevation of Rivese water, and leads to the underground corridor leading to the Jungle Island tram or the Survey Room.
- Gehn's Survey Room
- An underwater observatory room. Stairs lead up to a throne where Gehn can sit and spy on other places around Riven. This room is mentioned in Gehn's journal. The right-hand gadget has 6 buttons marked with the D'ni color symbols. Rotating the dial and pressing a button, lights an underground bulb of the corresponding color. The purple light (corresponding to Book Assembly Island) is out, while the red light summons a Wahrk. The purpose of this gadget for Gehn is unknown, although in the game it serves teach the D'ni color symbols.
- The left-hand gadget has two functions. The one function is to rotate the dial and control the periscope in the Village Lake of the Jungle Island. From there one can see the cave formation that makes the outline of a Rivenese fish, and its wooden eye symbol. The other function of the gadget is to spy on Catherine's cell in Prison Island.

One interesting discovery in the process of that repair was that nothing in the house was either square or level. Hewn logs straddled a crude stone foundation – which had settled unevenly over the years leaving the walls and flooring at a twisted angle. Replacement flooring had to be cut at awkward angles in order to fit. It was an expensive lesson concerning the importance of a good foundation. When the undergirding structure of a building is weak and misaligned, the superstructure cannot remain strong and true.
That is why it was so important for the foundation of the church to be aligned properly. In describing how the church of Jesus Christ was built, the Apostle Paul begins by saying, "having been built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone" (Eph. 2:20).
You see, a church founded upon the teaching of the apostles and the prophets has to, in turn, have a true alignment for that teaching. How do we know if the teaching of the apostles and prophets is correct? Or what if they disagree with each other – as when Paul challenged Peter in Galatians 2? What is the ultimate authority that establishes the plumbline for the authoritative teaching of the church? Paul says it is Jesus Christ – "Christ Himself being the corner stone."
The corner stone of an ancient building served as an alignment stone for the foundation. The Greek word of the original biblical text for corner stone is akrongoniaios. This is a compound word containing the word for corner (gonia) combined with the prefix word for the extremity or uttermost part of something (akron). Literally, it means "lying at the extreme corner," and refers to the crucial stone that was laid in setting the parameters for a foundation. The angle of the cornerstone was precise, and it determined all of the subsequent lines and other angles of the building. It was a standard for the bearing of the beams and walls in the construction of the entire building.
This, then, is the significance of Jesus to the foundation of the church. He is the first and foremost element of the undergirding structure upon which everything else is aligned. The teaching of the church must line up with the teachings of Christ. The character of the church as a loving and caring assembly of people finds its orientation in the compassion of Christ. Concern for the eternal welfare of a spiritually lost world, as well as the development of God's people to maturity, is the true angle of our Lord's ministry upon which the church is built.
Jesus is the cornerstone of the foundation of the church, and those who would build upon that foundation must be diligent to keep their eyes on Him. Unlike that old farm house, the church of Jesus Christ has a solid foundation where the angles are true and the lines are straight – because Jesus is the cornerstone.

In a minute, I'll give you a sneak peek into the most important part of one of my big goals this year. It's something that's almost embarrassing to share with tens of thousands of people. And I haven't shared it with anyone.
But I realized something yesterday…
Yep.. I messed up. I think we need to take a step BACK.
The last few weeks we've talked about ditching New Years Resolutions in favor of Goals [you can catch up here, if you missed it].
And we got a ton of great questions about how to help achieve those goals.
In fact, we'll be writing up detailed blog posts on a few of them that are too in-depth to answer in a quick email.
There was a problem with all of that though.
The problem is, I forgot one GIANT thing. Something I know better than to leave out, because it is absolutely crucial in my personal goal setting every year. In fact, it's also crucial in how I raise my family, how I operate my business, and live my life as a follower of Christ.
And I can sum it up in one word.
What's your key motivation?
What's your purpose behind this goal?
What's at stake if you don't achieve it?
What's at stake if you DO achieve it?
What would be measurably different in your life tomorrow morning if you woke up and you had exactly what you wanted?
It's about really digging in deep, and being authentic and even vulnerable with yourself so you can find your #1 Why.
I almost didn't send this next part…
But then I realized, I have to be vulnerable first, in order for others to follow suit, so they can take the next step towards achieving their biggest goals this year.
But before I reveal some of my WHYs, let me give the 30 second back story first:
Almost 6 years ago now…
[just to show, if you don't fix your problems NOW, half a decade will fly by before you know it]
I injured myself deadlifting [basically picking up a bar off the ground that's loaded with weights on each side if your'e not familiar with this lift].
They were these awkward plates that aren't evenly round circles, so they twist a bit when you're lifting. And when they hit the ground, you never know if it'll be the low point, or the high point.
AKA Dangerous when maxing out!
The bar hit the floor, everything bounced all wonky. Next thing you know, I've torn multiple muscles, in my back, neck, dislocated disks and have a neck that convulses and locks up when I turn left. (I'm no longer an ambiturner)
Long story short, fitness has been very challenging the past 5 years, but more importantly I let my injury become an excuse. An excuse that lasted several years too long.
But if I once was in great shape and know how to get there, have access to the best supplements in the world, and have spent almost 15 years learning about diet, nutrition, training and everything fitness… why couldn't I get my injury fixed and get back to where I once was?
It's simple. I didn't have a strong enough WHY to push through the messy middle.
You must know your WHY to improve your odds at success (in anything)
I didn't have a true, authentic and deep enough conviction that mattered to me, and that I connected with. One to push through the struggles, to get up early before the kids were awake, to pivot and make a new plan every time my preferred style of workouts aggravated my injuries. Or to just get it done, even when work and life were busy.
And you'll need one [or more] too, because no great goal will come easy. It will get challenging, and if your WHY isn't big enough, you'll quit. You WILL hit a wall.
We're already a few days into February.
(wow, that happened FAST right?!)
How have your goals been going? Are you struggling? Have you thought about quitting? Have you already given up?
In a minute I'll ask you to take another big action to help ensure your success at what matters most to you this year.
But first, let me lead the way.
I'll start off being a little more vulnerable than I feel comfortable being in front of thousands of people. But to be honest, that uncomfortable feeling was what queued me in to knowing it was the exact thing I needed to do.
When you start to feel uncomfortable with actions in your goals, it typically means they're big enough and important enough to truly matter. You're headed in the right direction.
So push through that fear and take action, before it has a chance to cripple you and stunt your growth. [Can you tell my theme for 2016 is Massive Action? ;-) ]
Let me give you a sneak peek into a few of my Top WHY's for one of my major goals this year.
Your WHY may be similar to some of mine, it may be entirely different! As long as it matter deeply to you, you're on the right track.
Now I want you to take a moment, go back to your #1 fitness goal for the year and write your biggest, most meaningful WHY behind this goal.
And that's your assignment today:
Assignment #1: Identify your what [goal] and your why.

The upper chamber had at the resumed sitting in the committee of the whole, extended special privilege of, 'take a bow,' to Messrs Hauwa Lawan, (Jigawa); Kenneth Kobani (Rivers); and Joel IKenya, (Taraba) while the opposition vehemently resisted the appearance of Obanikoro, a nominee from Lagos state, before the senate.
Senate President, David Mark, frustrated all attempts by Senators Bukola Saraki, Olugbenga Ashafa, Babajide Omoworare, George Akume, Olubunmi Adetunmbi and Ganiyu Solomon, among others, to frustrate Obanikoro's clearance.
The aggrieved senators cited various constitutional and senate points of order to draw Mark's attention to the fact that Obanikoro was not eligible to be appointed as a minister because he had been implicated in some very sensitive issues that touched on serious national interest.
They also argued that there were some legal suits hanging on the neck of Obanikoro including an originating summons of a Lagos High Court instituted by a Peoples Democratic Party member, Kemi Lawal, which restrained the Senate against confirming Obanikoro as minister.
Angered by Mark's insistence that the screening and confirmation of the ministers must continue, all the opposition senators walked out of the chamber and addressed a press conference where they expressed their disappointment in the senate leadership handling of the issue.
Notwithstanding the fact that the senators had left the chamber, the senate president still went ahead by ruling on the overwhelming voice votes of the remaining PDP senators who approved the nomination and confirmation of Obanikoro and the other nominees as ministers.
Other nominees confirmed by the senate having been earlier screened last week included, Senator Patricia Akwashiki (Nasarawa); Prof. Nicholas Akise Ada (Benue); Col. Augustine Akobundu (retd.) (Abia); and Mr. Fidelis Nwankwo (Ebonyi).

Painting, oil on paper, 14in x 12.5in
|Oil and pencil on paper, squared for transfer Spencer blocks in tone as he experiments with his composition. Music, like literature was an essential part of Spencer's life and many of his works have the rhythms and tones that suggest music is present. The shape to the right has become the ivy covered cottage 'The Nest', which belonged to Spencer's grandmother. The men going past 'The Nest' carrying their ladders worked for Fairchilds, the builder in Cookham, and were a late addition to the composition, their crossed ladders suggesting the impending crucifixion.
Drawing, pencil on paper, 9.25in x 12in
The house is 'Fernlea', Spencer's childhood home. Spencer's vision is of Christ, at a terrible moment of his life, in the familiar and comforting setting of his village. This is one of several studies for the oil painting Christ carrying the Cross, 1920 (Tate) through which we see Spencer gradually developing a composition which includes lots of incidental details. Throughout the studies the rhythmically arranged figures hanging out of the windows of 'Fernlea' remain. In the final painting they are still at the windows but each one has wing-like curtains fluttering beside it.

Steroid Side Effects – Why You Should Avoid Them
Steroids have become so mainstream, it's ridiculous, the bodybuilding industry has become so parasitical. It seems anyone who has taken a steroid cycle or won an amateur bodybuilding competition think they know how to train and what kinds of steroids to take. Mistake number one, why are you taking steroids or considering them in the first place? In this article we will discuss why steroids will mess you up.
In today's modern bodybuilding society most men do not want to hear anyone say stay away from steroids. If you are considering taking steroids, there are a few reality checks you should consider, you might save yourself some money and save your health.
Steroids are not going to make you superman overnight
I have seen so many young guys taking steroids 6 -8 weeks after they start training, the bodybuilding industry has hyped steroid use so much that young men think that the only way they will get big is by roiding up.
If you think taking steroids will get you big overnight, think again! Before you take any kind of sports enhancement drugs you need to learn how to train.
Training is more important than steroids
Training is one of the most important things you can do to build muscle. In order to build solid and dense muscle, you need to train hard and lift heavy. You cannot expect to be an overnight success. Building muscle takes time, persistence, and dedication.
I personally believe one of the biggest failures most men face today is wanting things too fast without working for it.
Steroids are not going to take you far if you do not have a solid foundation. Besides hardcore training, try sticking to the basics, train with core compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench press, barbell rows, rack pulls etc.Training properly is the best way to build quality muscle.
You should have a good diet before you consider taking steroids
Besides training, diet is one of the things any bodybuilder should be focusing on. LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!. If you are serious about transforming your body you should be paying close attention to how your body reacts to food.
To make things closer to a science you should write down your meals and how you felt after you ate certain things. Check your progress week after week, see how you feel taking a close look at muscle gains, fat, bloating, and water retention.
Are you genetically gifted?
One thing a lot of guys do not take into consideration is that maybe they are not genetically gifted. there are very few 5′ 1″ basketball players, just like there are very few 6′ 7′ ice skaters.
Like it or not, genetics play a HUGE role in bodybuilding, this does not mean that if you are short and skinny you cannot be a bodybuilder, thing is, genetically some people have a hard time gaining muscle.
It has to do with muscle fibers and how well your body responds to resistance training. If your body does not respond well, even if you take steroids, it is not going to help much.
Taking steroids can be a psychological merry-go-round
For a lot of guys taking steroids literally messes them up, both physically and mentally, a lot depends on how long you take them. Taking steroids for a long time will eventually tell your body to not produce testosterone.
There is no doubt that steroids will help make you stronger and bigger. Problem is after you stop taking them you are going to shrink back to your original size.
Taking Steroids can cause severe health issues
When people talk about taking steroids, they only take into consideration the side effects of one particular steroid. When people juice they generally are taking a combination of several substances, this combination can be deadly.
Long-term side effects can include an enlarged heart, risk of stroke, diminished sex drive, and possible tumors down the road. Everyone is different so every individual will react differently to steroids.
There are alternatives to taking steroids
There is no substitute for training hard and eating right, this is probably one of the best ways to gain muscle. No one should consider taking steroids until they have been training for a few years.
If you want something to help you gradually boost strength and gain weight there are things like Creatine, Whey Protein, and legal steroids that can help you naturally make gains. Unless you are competing professionally, why would you want to harm your body? For many, a natural alternative can work just as well.
Steroid use should not be taken lightly, it is a serious decision and they are substances that most men do not need and should not be taken, having said that I leave you with a video of Scott Herman discussing the issues you may expect from taking anabolic steroids.

RSL NSW fundraising suspension 'grossly unfair'
The flow-on effects of a state-wide fundraising ban have left a small group of war widows feeling "useless".
It comes nine months after the Wagga Women's Auxiliary were forced to cease raffles and sandwich making amid a probe into the financial dealings of RSL NSW.
As a result of the investigation, a temporary ban on all RSL sub-branch associated fundraising, including raffles, barbecues, cake sales, poppy and Anzac Day badge sales.
The state body this year said it hoped to lift the suspension before November.
Until then, sub-branches supporting returned soldiers and their families across the region remain in limbo, as do its associated charities.
Wagga Women's Auxiliary president Robin Millington said its members felt as if the rug had been pulled from underneath them.
These are the women who sell poppies in November for Remembrance Day and Anzac Day badges in April.
In addition, the small group of women over 70-years-old, have every month baked cakes and made sandwiches to sell at a Legatees' weekly card game.
"We'd be lucky if we made $100 from that," she said. "But every little bit helps."
Ms Millinton said the ladies enjoyed coming together and did their part to assist the Wagga RSL sub-branch.
She said the ban had been frustrating.
"We feel a bit useless," Ms Millinton said. "One day you're just told you can't do anything … it's almost as if it comes to a dead stop and you can't do any little thing to help."
The sub-branch's acting trustee David Williams said the ban had been "grossly unfair" for the women of the auxiliary.
He said the charity understood the reasoning behind the move, but conceded the process had been frustrating, with the actions of few affecting many.
While the Wagga branch has missed out on close-to $60,000 worth of donations since last August, Mr Williams said it had managed to maintain its services and programs.
"The smaller, less wealthy branches, like Culciarn, Lockhart and Henty, that continue to struggle," Mr Williams said. "It's the little things they miss out on."
He said the money these sub-branches received from the sale of poppies and Anzac Day badges was generally enough to support various projects, like hampers for war widows at Christmas and electricity bill assistance.
Mr Williams said fundraising was well on the road to restarting, following conclusion of an Australian Charities and Not-for-profit Association probe into RSL NSW, this week.
"We're just waiting for an authority to say we can go ahead again."

According to Iranian state media, an Iranian police officer has been killed, and three other officers wounded in the protests sweeping the nation.
It's the first reported fatality among security forces trying to reign in those demonstrations. CGTN's Jessica Stone reports.
According to Iranian police, a protester opened fire using a hunting rifle on police at a demonstration in the central city of Najafabad. Three more officers were also wounded.
The demonstrations began Thursday in Northeast Iran. Protesters have specifically chanted against the government and its supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. They want their country to pull out of costly proxy wars with Saudi Arabia, and focus on rebuilding the economy. Fuel and food prices are rising…as is unemployment.
Even as he allowed a temporary block on social media, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani called on the protesters — and police — to remain peaceful.
"So the people have a right to criticize, all over the country," said Rouhani. "But, criticism is entirely different from violence and damaging public properties.
Monday, he called the protests – an opportunity.
"In my opinion, what happened within the past few days, on the surface it looked like a threat, but we need to turn it into an opportunity," he said.
Meantime, global reaction is building. Berlin is calling on Tehran to respect the rights of protesters and on all sides to refrain from violence.
FM @sigmargabriel on Iran: We call on the government to respect demonstrators' freedom of assembly + their right to give voice to their opinion freely+peacefully. Following confrontation of past days, all the more important for all sides to refrain from taking any violent action.
— GermanForeignOffice (@GermanyDiplo) January 1, 2018
The Russian Foreign Ministry is accusing foreigners of stoking the protests, saying quote:
"External interference which may destabilize the situation is unacceptable," according to Russian outlets, Sputnik and RT Television.
After repeatedly weighing in on the situation in Iran through Twitter, U.S. President Donald Trump tweeted Monday too.
Iran is failing at every level despite the terrible deal made with them by the Obama Administration. The great Iranian people have been repressed for many years. They are hungry for food & for freedom. Along with human rights, the wealth of Iran is being looted. TIME FOR CHANGE!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 1, 2018
Sunday, Rouhani accused Trump of "always acting against the Iranian people" – blocking their visas to the U.S. and failing to certify the Iran nuclear deal. Under U.S. law, Trump has until January 13th to recertify the deal again.

The new Oris Tubbataha Regulator Diver (ref. 01 749 7663 7185-Set RS) limited edition automatic wrist watch speaks the same design language as their current Oris Regulateur Der Meistertaucher (ref. 01 649 7610 7164-Set) professional diving timepiece, but is slightly smaller, is rated for more practical water resistance and is equipped with their new movement, which is based on the well-known Sellita SW220 unit.
According to the corporate press release that we have received, the model is designed together with the Tubbataha Reefs National Park in the Philippines and the Swiss brand promises that part of the proceedings will be donated towards the good cause of the conservation of the coral reef and its vast eco-system.
Rated for an impressive depth of 500 meters, this is a real diving companion for professionals, not just some casual watch in a diver's disguise and thus the Swiss watchmaker didn't have to make any shortcuts trying to reduce its impressive dimensions.
Even without the large fluted crown, the Tubbataha Regulator measures in whole 47 millimeters in diameter, which makes it virtually unsuitable as an everyday watch (well, I know a couple guys who are not shy wearing such monsters with jeans and blazers,) but is not a problem if you plan to wear it with a dry suit.
Together with a relatively thin bezel, the XXL-large case allowed for a really impressive face real estate with enough space both for the small seconds indicator (placed at 9 o'clock) and hours sub-dial (at 3 o'clock), as well as for a complete set of the huge, luminous hour markers and an oversized minute hand.
Yes, as the name tells us, this is a watch of a pretty rare "regulator" type.
Although, when it comes to casual watches, some people find the setup a trifle inconvenient, the layout looks outstanding when the primary function of the watch is to count down time, which is measured in minutes.
Besides a scratch-resistant ceramic bezel inlay in Oris traditional color (looks like Indigo to me, but I am not sure), the watch also features a helium escape valve that prevents the sapphire crystal from popping out during decompression.
It is reported the Oris Tubbataha Regulator Diver will be offered as a limited edition model with a total number of timekeepers limited to just 2000 pieces.
Not sure about pricing, but we should probably expect something in the range of $3000 – $3500*.
See also: Oris Maldives Limited Edition 300M Diver (Ref. 643 7654 7185 RS / MB)
* UPDATE ON PRICE: The Tubbataha Regulator was actually offered at an even more affordable price of $2800, which makes it even more interesting for those tired of the standard three-handers.
