Henry's Running the Marathon for Calvert Trust Exmoor
Henry Potter, son of our very own Chief Executive Tony Potter, will be running in the 2013 London Marathon. This year the race is on the 21st April, and Henry has set himself the target of raising £1,700 in aid of Calvert Trust Exmoor, which will go towards our bursary funds, enabling guests who require financial assistance to be able to have a holiday.
Henry said "I'm doing it for Calvert Trust Exmoor because they enable people to do things that they may not have though they were able to do, providing confidence which will help them in their every day lives."
You can help Henry to reach his target by supporting him through his web page: www.virginmoneygiving.com/HenryPotter
Henry says his goal is to run the marathon in less than four hours, ideally 3hrs 30mins, but we think that secretly he would love to beat his Dad's time of 2 hours, 59 minutes & 20 seconds! Tony ran his personal best time at the first ever London marathon in March 1981.
Please help Henry to reach his fundraising target for us by donating here:www.virginmoneygiving.com/HenryPotter. You never know it might prompt him to run even faster if you do!

We all know the tried and true statement, "Money can't buy you happiness." Cliché as it may be, it remains true. Money can buy many things: cars, homes, vacations, clothes—but it cannot buy happiness. The best things in life are free, and you can find great positivity from these things. Some of the best free things in life include:
At the end of the day, blood always runs thicker than water. Your family will be there, and this is something money could never replace. Although some people may not be in contact with their blood related relatives, your family is whom you make it. As a result, some may find this familial comfort through other relationships, like friends and significant others.
Friends can be much like family, and friends can be a cherished part of life. Friends should not be bought, and you should be able to find the comfort of a companion, cost free. Friends provide a network of support for you to share moments of happiness, sadness, and any other remarkable life milestone. Many friends are lifelong, and some just spend a brief moment in your life—either way, these friendships can be the best part of life.
Similarly to the rewarding feeling you get from your friends and family, another free thing in life is romance. The love of a significant other is a feeling like no other, and this is free. Significant others function to enrich your life and complement your being. These life benefits cannot be bought.
Aside from the relationship you may have in your life, there are also personal accomplishments that can be rewarding. Working hard and seeing the result is free, and there is nothing like the high of success. People can find much happiness from setting a goal and achieving it. Some examples of cost free achievements that could bring you great joy are completing a marathon, finishing a painting, starting a new business, and many many more.
A full happy life includes not only relationships and achievements, but also spirituality. Now, not everyone is religious, but most people have a sense of spirituality. Finding a way to understand the world, and develop a moral compass can be your own spirituality. Whether you believe in karmic energy, meditation, bible study, prayer, or just doing what you believe to be right—this is your spirituality.

Australia has again proven its bars stand up to the best in the world – three have placed on the World's 50 Best Bars List, including one from Melbourne.
Brunswick Street favourite Black Pearl is on the list at number 22, slipping from last year's spot at number 10.
Unfortunately nearby Fitzroy cocktail bar The Everleigh didn't make the list this time, despite sitting at number 25 last year.
Two Sydney bars returned to the list in 2016, although both have placed slightly lower this time. Baxter Inn went from number six to number 12, and won best bar in Australasia. Last year Bulletin Place ranked 28th, this year it was 46th.
In the top 100, Melbourne's Eau de Vie came in at 90 and Sydney's Lobo Plantation at 95.
Attaboy in New York City, run by Australian Sam Ross, came in at number five.
See the full World's 50 Best Bars list here.
You can try Bulletin Place's cocktails at the Broadsheet Sydney Restaurant, open now. Bookings are available at broadsheetrestaurant.com.au.

So mom and dad were going shopping in the city the other day and when I realized this, I decided to have a sit-in, until they decided to let me come. I was all set to go back into the house after my walk, but come on, I love going for walks in the city! So finally they gave in (they had no choice really, I was NOT moving!) and brought me with them. It was a lovely day, and I even got to see my friends Suzy & Inge! And tonight after dad's game I'm going home with them to stay for a few days while mom and dad go to the States for Xmas. So next week when they come back we'll have lots of pictures from my visit. Merry Xmas everyone!

Wildflowers are prized by home gardeners because they are low maintenance, and are available in a wide variety of colors, shapes and sizes. You can find wildflower varieties suitable for almost any growing condition--hot and dry to shady and wet. You do not need to have a plot of earth to grow your wildflowers; containers will do nicely.
From Wildflower Seeds
Select wildflower seeds that are either native to your region or are recommended to grow in the environmental conditions in which your container will be located. If you plan to place your containers where they will receive full sun all day long, the wildflowers you choose should be sun loving. Carefully read the back of the seed packages for growing requirements.
Fill your container with clean all-purpose potting soil. Your wildflower seeds need a well-draining soil.
Plant your wildflower seeds to the depth recommended on the seed package. Most wildflower seeds need to be sown on top, or just under, the soil surface. Because wildflowers in their native setting generally self-seed, most wildflower seeds should be planted as if they fell from the mother plant.
In most USDA planting zones, you can sow your wildflower seeds in your container in the fall, September to November, so that the seeds will either germinated then and establish a strong root system before winter, or stay dormant until the ground warms in the spring. Whether your seeds sprout or stay dormant will depend on the wildflower variety you planted.
Water your container soil to keep it moist, not soggy, after you you have planted your wildflower seeds. The soil will need to be kept moist throughout the period your seeds are germinating and until the seedlings have developed a strong root system. Once your wildflowers are 2 to 3 inches high, you can cut back and allow your container soil to dry slightly between waterings.
Using Wildflower Bedding Plants
Select wildflower bedding plants that have the natural habitat similar to where you intend to place your container or are native to your region. If you plan to place your wildflower container in full sun, for example, your wildflowers need to be ones that naturally are found in full sunlight. Also, be aware of the compatibility of your wildflower plants in a container. Observe which plants grow together in their natural habit, or consult with your local cooperative extension for advice. For ongoing wildflower blooming, plant a variety of plants that bloom at different times.
Plant your wildflower plants in a container that is filled with an all-purpose potting soil that drains well. Be sure you have selected a container that will accommodate the growing root system of your wildflower bedding plants.
Water your wildflowers to mimic their natural environment. If the wildflowers normally grow in shaded areas, where the soil is consistently moist, your container soil must also be kept consistently moist. Wildflowers that grow in drier conditions should have their container soil dry out between watering, then give your wildflowers a good soaking.
Allow your wildflowers to form seed pods after they bloom so they will reseed in your container, as they would in their natural environment.

Conte's future at Stamford Bridge is in doubt, following a poor run of results.
UK Mirror reports that the Italian's future could be decided this month, when they take on Barcelona in the Champions League last 16 and the two Manchester clubs in the league.
The Premier League champions were thrashed 4-1 at Watford on Monday, days after losing 3-0 at home to Bournemouth.
Chelsea are currently fourth, 19 points off the leaders Manchester City.
Conte was rewarded with a bumper new contract last summer that runs until 2021, after guiding the Blues to the championship.
Club director Marina Granovskaia hoped the 48-year-old could "continue to deliver results both domestically and [in] the Champions League."

The extended drive area on the twelfth hole at the elbow of the dogleg, looking toward the hole. This is a very narrow area with water on the right and in front.
Teeing off on the reworked eleventh hole
The course at Taylor Meadows Golf Club in Taylor, Michigan, is to reopen 4 July following the redesign of three holes.
The project has been led by golf course architect Steve Forrest of Hills Forrest, and has focused on the course's tenth, eleventh and twelfth holes.
Forrest has looked to improve relationships on the course, and has added a pond beside the fairway and at the edge of the green on the tenth hole. This will discourage players from routinely hitting a driver off the tee.
The architect has also reconstructed the eleventh and twelfth holes, taking advantage of a newly acquired 7.5-acre plot of land that has been made available to the club. This means that the distance from tees to a nearby road is increased, thus improving safety.
The distance between the back tees on the tenth and eleventh holes has also been increased. Safety will therefore be improved here as well, as there is now an unobstructed line of site between the tees, allowing players to alert other players of any wayward shots.
"In addition to the improved relationships, players will get to experience an exciting and beautiful new par three as well as a fun, short par four and an intriguing double-dogleg par five," Forrest said. "The total course par will be increased by one."

Since I spend most of my time watching movies and tv shows, and listening to music (when am not watching tennis of course), I decided to let you know my favorite movie/song/tv episode every now and then. Cuz you know how sometimes you really want a nice suggestion for a song or a movie and you can't think of anything?! Well, am just tryin to help :)
So my picks for this week are:
Movie: August Rush
I first heard about this movie when I was watching the Oscars and Keri Russell was presenting one of the songs nominated for best song and it was from a movie she was in called August Rush. I finally got to see it today and I loved it. Am not gonna give you a review or anything but in short, it's about an 11-year old music prodigy who believes he could find his parents through the music he hears in the world around him.
Song: Ayub Ogada - Kothbiro
From the Constant Gardener Soundtrack. My friend actually had a dance performance on this song a few weeks back and I've been dying for the song ever since. Somehow today I was flipping through channels on TV and stumbled upon the movie "The Constant Gardener" and amazingly enough, it was at the exact moment that this song was playing in the movie. It was easy to figure out the name of the song after that since I just searched for The Constant Gardener Soundtrack on Amazon and listen to 12 music samples till I reached number 13 - Kothbiro :) Don't you just love it when these random coincidences happen???
Song: Yael Naim - New Soul
I heard this song on the MacBook Air ad I was watching on YouTube, and immediately got my hands on it. A few days later, I heard it playing during one of the 30-second breaks between games in a tennis match at the Indian Wells Masters Series. Apparently the ad made the song an instant hit. Enjoy it :)

The Joggers Handbook
Okay, you've finally made the decision.
It's time to do something about your health and well being.
It isn't that you are overweight (well, maybe just a few pounds). It isn't your age (since when is a young 40 considered middle age?) Of course it could have nothing to do with climbing the stairs to your office (didn't you always wheeze like that?)
Yep, it's time to get serious. If you think that jogging is something you just jump into, think again. Yes, the sooner you get started, the better. However, a little preparation will go a long way toward learning how to "run for your life!

Hamstring Injuries
In this article we will examine the difficulties and frustrations athletes suffer with acute and chronic hamstring problems.
Before you read on, do you have a question about hamstring injuries? You can get help and information from our Caring Medical Staff
First, what are some of the different types of hamstring injuries?
Hamstring injuries are a hamstring strain/pull, a partial tear, or a complete tear. A diagnosis of chronic hamstring problems may include Tight hamstring muscle syndrome or simply hamstring syndrome.
- Grade 1 hamstring tears are considered the mildest injury.
- Grade 2 hamstring tear and Grade 3 hamstring tear injuries may take months to heal if they respond at all to conservative treatments. In grade 3 tear the muscle can completely pull away from the bone at the tendon attachment.
Tight hamstring muscle syndrome or simply hamstring syndrome is a complaint among some athletes. Athletes may experience gluteal sciatic pain (a pain in the bottom of the butt) from an inflammation of the sciatic nerve at the insertion site of hamstring muscles to ischial tuberosity.
Tight hamstring muscle syndrome can also be a postural abnormality seen with spondylolisthesis in athletes, which is the dislocation of a vertebra and may be referred to as disc related tight hamstring syndrome. Symptoms may include a pinching of the nerve that extends to the hamstring muscle because of the dislocation of the vertebrae.
For someone with a chronic hamstring problem, telling them that hamstring muscle syndrome or a "pulled hamstring" can be difficult to treat would come as no surprise.
Doctors from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine recently suggested in the medical journal Orthopedics that the typical difficult to treat hamstring patient may have already been given several traditional conservative treatments, including physiotherapy and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which are both considered inconsistent treatments. Corticosteroid injections are frequently recommended and have demonstrated success but can adversely affect local tissues and the detrimental long-term effect of cortisone has been well documented. With these findings, doctors exploring different treatment options have found Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a safe, effective treatment for several orthopedic pathologies.1 We are going to discuss more research below on PRP injections as part of a comprehensive Prolotherapy program.
Hamstring Syndrome Treatment
In the Journal of strength and conditioning research, University and medical researchers in Taiwan wrote that medical treatment of hamstring muscle syndrome typically involves at least part of the RICE protocol, rest, ice, compression, and elevation. Although some of these treatment components do bring some initial pain relief from hamstring injuries. Research evidence shows that "ice application or topical cooling does not enhance and appears to delay the return to normal of muscle damage markers and subjective fatigue feeling after eccentric exercise."2
In other words, RICE hinders the healing of muscle tissue. Even the inventor of the RICE protocol is now saying both ice applications and rest delay muscle healing.
The dangers of ice therapy have been noted for decades, in a landmark 1992 study from Duke University published in the Journal of athletic training, ice applications were shown to cause muscle damage, because of the dangers of freezing tissue. This danger could also extend to nerve damage.3
- Hamstring stretches are another typical treatment, however, static, dynamic, passive stretching without accompanying muscle strengthening exercises can do more damage and lead to more injuries and pain problems.
- Dutch researchers at the University Medical Center in Utrecht released their findings in early 2017 suggesting that in elite soccer players, although hamstring flexibility is thought to play a major role in preventing hamstring injuries, there is no significant relationship between hamstring flexibility and hamstring injuries.
- Stretching does NOT prevent hamstring injuries.4
Another standard practice is the use of steroids and anti-inflammatory medications. However, side-effects of steroid injections and anti-inflammatory medications and their soft-tissue damaging properties have been well documented in the medical literature.
Let's get back to stretching and muscle exercises that put not only the hamstring, but knee instability at risk.
Does preventative training put your knee at greater risk?
Doctors at the University of Health and Sports in Berlin published these findings in the journal Medical hypotheses.
- Both hamstring and ACL injuries are among the most typical injuries, particularly in a change of direction and high speed running sports. They're also difficult to treat.
- In the past few years, sports medicine practitioners and exercise scientists have mainly been focusing on the development and implementation of preventive programs in order to reduce the number of lower limb injuries, mainly by improving knee alignment.
- A number of studies have been able to prove the success of these training interventions, which are mainly addressing sensorimotor abilities and plyometric activities.
- The number of non-contact hamstring injuries has nevertheless been on the rise, particularly in sports like soccer and football.
- The researchers introduce the hypothesis that some training interventions have a massive influence on the activation patterns in the targeted muscle group, and on the biceps femoris in particular.
- Training-induced adaptations in hamstring activation patterns can thus lead to an increased injury susceptibility.5
Hamstring Muscle Syndrome, Buttock Pain and High Hamstring Tendinopathy – is stretching the danger?
Beyond how to stretch hamstrings – how to repair injured hamstrings: From a regenerative medicine perspective, the preferred long-term solution is to strengthen the ischial tuberosity, a point of attachment for the hamstring muscles with regenerative soft-tissue treatments such as Prolotherapy, Platelet Rich Plasma, and Stem Cell Therapy. These injection treatments stimulate repair of the buttock pain and posterior thigh pain. One way they do so is by strengthening the tendon attachments of the semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris muscles of the hamstring.
This is attested to by the pain deep in the buttocks or upper back-side of the thigh reported by some patients and confirmed by physical examination as tendon injury near the origin of the hamstring muscle off of the ischial tuberosity. That is the name of the bone which bears body weight in the seated position. It is an injury we see in mid to long distance runners, yoga practitioners, and occasionally non-athletic individuals who have been injured by improper chiropractic adjustments or physical therapy.
- Occasionally the damage to the tendon in chronic cases can be severe enough to cause irritation of the nearby sciatic nerve, thus producing back pain symptoms of referred pain down the entire back of the leg which is more typically associated with herniated lumbar discs.
The pain is worse when the patient is seated on a hard surface, and after running, especially at faster speeds. There can be pain at rest in severe cases.
- The bent knee stretch test is applied for the diagnosis of this condition with the patient lying supine. The hip and knee are first maximally flexed towards the patient's chest, and then the knee is extended gradually. Pain at the origin of the hamstring on that side which reproduces the patient's pain is diagnostic.
Additionally, a diagnosis for injection treatments such as Prolotherapy relies on direct thumb pressure over the proximal (center) hamstring tendon in the buttocks, the so-called "jump sign" to reproduce the pain, localize the injury, and determine the best treatment. Direct firm pressure on affected areas causes the patient to "jump' because of accentuation of the pain.
Finally, injection of a local anesthetic solution into the tendon-bone junction (enthesis) of the affected hamstring tendon can cinch the diagnosis by immediately eradicating all evidence of pain at rest or with motion or sitting.
In summary, there are several other conditions that can produce a similar symptom complex of high hamstring tendinopathy.
- Herniated lumbar discs and sacroiliac ligament strain both refer pain into the deep buttock area.
- Spasm of the piriformis muscle is another common condition in athletes and, in older individuals, metastatic cancer to the bone and pelvic stress fracture must also be considered.
Fortunately, all of these conditions except for the latter two will respond to appropriately applied Prolotherapy, but making the differential diagnosis is critical in order to achieve the most rapid response. When necessary, X-rays, bone scan, or MRI imaging is ordered.
Prolotherapy injections can offer the fastest route to recovery from high hamstring tendinopathy. The only possible danger from prolo for this disorder is the proximity of the hamstring tendons to the sciatic nerve, but proper experience and technique will always avert any problems in this regard. Should the nerve ever be touched by the slowly advancing prolo needle (a precautionary measure on the prolotherapist's part), there will be a quick electrical sensation down the leg. As the needle is withdrawn or redirected, any discomfort will be mild and temporary.
Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy
Doctors from the University of Colorado School of Medicine and the Southern California Hip Institute published research in the Muscles, Tendons, Ligament Journal which cited the research surrounding the use of Platelet Rich Plasma Injections for hamstring tendinopathy.6 Here is the summary:
- In a study from the British Journal of Sports Medicine, doctors compared PRP, platelet-poor plasma (PPP), and no injection in professional athletes with MRI-positive hamstring injuries.
- All patients underwent a standardized rehabilitation program. Time to return to sport was found to be significantly better in the PRP group (mean 21 days) compared with the PPP group (mean 27 days). No significant difference in re-injury rate was noted between the three groups at 2 months or 6 months following intervention.7
- In another study led by the University of Colorado Hospital Department of Orthopedic Surgery, doctors examined 18 patients with chronic proximal hamstring tendinopathy who received a single PRP injection by ultrasound guidance. Patients had chronic hamstring pain symptoms for an average of 32.6 months prior to their injection and all patients had attempted other non-surgical treatments such as cortisone injections and physical therapy prior to injection. Based on a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, patients had an average improvement in pain of 63% at 6 months following PRP injection.8
In recent research that we cited at the beginning of this article, doctors at Northwestern University looked at 18 patients, 12 females and 6 males – average age 42.6 who had pain that lasted an average of 32 months.
- The patients received one PRP treatment. Six months after the injection, 10/18 patients had 80% or greater improvement.
Overall, the average improvement was 63% with one patient – little to no improvement. The only documented side effect was post-injection discomfort that resolved within seventy-two hours.1
This was ONE Injection – please see my article on choosing a PRP doctor, we discuss the idea of single injection PRP treatments.
These result could not be replicated long-term in cortisone groups. In a study from Stanford University, "Fifty percent of patients had symptomatic improvement lasting longer than 1 month after percutaneous corticosteroid injection, and 24% of patients had symptom relief for more than 6 months."8 Compare that to the PRP treated patients at Northwestern who had 80% relief.
In other words, the typical conservative treatment of cortisone is not a guaranteed cure for this hamstring injury.
What these researchers found is what Prolotherapy doctors have long known: a better approach to hamstring injury is to strengthen the fibro-osseus junction of the ischial tuberosity with Prolotherapy. The ischial tuberosity bears body weight in the seated position and is a point of attachment for the hamstring muscles. In the above research, Platelet Rich Plasma injection was used at the "muscle origin" the fibro-osseus junction.

Same–day Transfers are processed immediately and cannot be canceled after the instruction is sent to us.
Future Day Transfers
A one-time (non-recurring) transfer scheduled for a future date (a "Future Transfer") will be processed on the scheduled transfer date, if that day is a Business Day. A Future Transfer scheduled for a non-Business Day will be processed on the next Business Day. Consumer Internet Banking customers may change or cancel a Future Day Transfer up until 7:00 p.m. on the scheduled date of transfer as long as it does not show the payment is in an "in-process" state. Business Internet Banking customers may change or cancel a Future Day Transfer the night before the schedule date of transfer. Future day transfers, that are made as a payment on a loan may be made from checking accounts only.
Recurring Transfers
You may schedule transfers that do not vary in amount to automatically occur on a regular schedule of your choice. If you request that the first transfer in a recurring transfer take place on the day you initiate the Recurring Transfer, that first transfer will be processed as a Same-day Transfer, and all rules for a Same-day Transfer will apply to it.
Except for that situation, Recurring Transfers will be initiated on each scheduled transfer date, if that day is a Business Day. If a scheduled Recurring Transfer date is a non-Business Day, your scheduled Recurring Transfer will be processed on the next Business Day. Except for that situation, Recurring Transfers will be initiated on each scheduled transfer date, if that day is a Business Day. If a scheduled Recurring Transfer date is a non-Business Day, your scheduled Recurring Transfer will be processed on the next Business Day. Consumer Internet Banking customers may change or cancel a Future Day Transfer up until 7:00 p.m. on the scheduled date of transfer as long as it does not show the payment is in an "in-process" state. Business Internet Banking customers may change or cancel a Future Day Transfer the night before the schedule date of transfer. Future day transfer, that are made as a payment on a loan may be made from checking accounts only.
Failed Transfers
If you don't have sufficient available funds in the Eligible Account from which the funds are to be transferred, we will not make the transfer on that date, but we will try again on our next processing date for Consumer Internet Banking customers. If you still don't have sufficient available funds in the Eligible Account from which the funds are to be transferred, the transfer will be cancelled. If the transfer is a Recurring Transfer, the remaining transfers will not be affected. For Business Internet Banking customers we do not retry a transfer the next day if it fails. We do send you an alert to let you know that it failed.

The theme for July is TRANSFORMATION.
July is a 2 Act Play. In the first act, the first two weeks, you are likely to get a tour of your emotions, fears and all the attachments that are in the way of this transformation. The second act begins on the 16th and brings love, compassion and a higher emotional centered energy to everything, anchoring this TRANSFORMATION through beauty and love.
We could also say that this month is all about love; transforming fear into power through love, transforming doubt into confidence through love, transforming old emotional wounds into great wisdom through love. It is an opportunity for us all to learn our lessons through the tough love of spirit and to finally begin to love and cherish ourselves deeply and unconditionally.
Much of what has happened in the world is because of fear: fear of the unknown, fear of death, fear of entrapment, fear of abandonment, fear of what we may feel, fear of what we night not feel, fear of what we may lose, fear of losing control, fear of failure, fear of success, fear of being seen, and many others.
We have reached a point in our evolution where it is time to break out of the cocoon of fear and allow ourselves to soar with new wings from a place of love. This will not happen overnight, but we have a chance this month at a good start.
So the first couple of weeks may not be an easy time. You may have to revisit your emotional psyche and do a bit of clearing. You may feel triggered, impatient, reactive, emotional, cranky, irritated, out of sorts, discouraged, overwhelmed, defensive, mistrusting, and have a general feeling that nothing is working in your life. There is a pressure to transform something, but the clarity is not there yet. This too shall pass. Meet this time with discipline around your practices and self-care. Focusing on how you can better support yourself and who you are is key to your own personal transformation. Set strong intentions to be affected only by the positives around you and don't take other people's negativity and reactions personally.
When fear comes up, as it will, examine it and see it to be the illusion that it is. Especially fear of "what could happen" is not grounded in anything real. It is imagined and fabricated from a library of past events that should really cease to run the show. Your instinctive center as well as the first chakra hold all of your survival information that often triggers fear. It is important that you work with your instinctive center this month and bring it into present time so it is not triggered by old programs and past karmic experiences. (There is help with this on our monthly support Mp3)
So in these first two weeks you get a chance at "karmic clean-up" and completions. Completions are an important factor in allowing transformation. To the extent that you are holding on to how something "should have been or should have happened", you have not completed that experience for yourself and therefore holding yourself back from your own evolution and getting in the way of your own transformation. Forgive and move on. Focus on completion, letting go, and bringing yourself into the present. If everyone could simply focus on eliminating fear by being present and acknowledging love, we could truly change the world.
Remember that whatever it is you feed, that is what will grow. So feed the love, not the fear.
The second half of the month brings with it the higher emotional center. This is the energy of love, connection, agape, a huge open heart and an experience of essence connection. It is the same influence that we had in the 1960's that initiated the incredible creativity and revolution in music, art, relationships, community and radical innovative ideas. The higher emotional center is the fuel that will feed a new version of creative revolution more focused on spirit and with a greater sense of maturity and purpose.
During this time, you may feel yourself greatly inspired to do something radical and outside your comfort zone. It is a time to connect with others, to feed your creativity, to come up with new ideas and to fall in love with yourself, your life and everything around you. (Support Mp3 has a beautiful visualization for this.)
How the month shows up:
Radical personal transformation is possible. Start with taking care of yourself, loving yourself, giving yourself the time and space for emotional assimilation, clearing, healing, and allowing yourself to prioritize your life according to what matters the most to you. Give yourself permission to be irritated and cranky as long as it does not affect others. Be careful of impatience and judgment and always move yourself to a place of compassion and forgiveness.
You have the opportunity this month to end up not recognizing yourself (in a good way). Things could be that different. Transformation can happen suddenly with a huge change in your life that may appear to be challenging at first. This could bring up blame, judgment and possibly even anger. Trust in spirit that whatever you are drawing towards you as an experience is somehow integral to the big picture of your life unfolding in the right way.
Make sure this month to take time for yourself in the area of self-care. How can you best support your own priorities? How can you take better care of yourself as your own most valuable possession? Remember to have compassion and forgiveness and to be in love with yourself.
This is a trying month for relationships in the first half and a beautiful month for relationships in the second half. As you focus on your own emotional needs and self-care in the first half, it will become very apparent who does not support you and who does. Don't take it personally. It may be time to move on.
Important relationships that have been somewhat stagnant have an opportunity to rekindle some creativity and inspiration as long as they don't get mired in blame, resentment and misunderstandings. Transformation is most radical in the relationship with yourself that that of course will influence all your relationships.
Because of the need for completion of karmic cycles as well as letting go of the past, many relationships will be affected. Some will go by the wayside and some will go through deep transformation into something new. Radical transformation can include sudden changes in relationships, some beginning and some ending.
It is important this month to be emotionally open, to process and heal old relationship wounds, and to take full responsibility for your part on the karmic wheel of relationship lessons. Get to the place of complete acceptance and love. It will serve you well.
We mentioned the self-care piece which is integral to the month. If you practice it, your health and well-being will improve. Put yourself first this month through self-love and miracles can happen. Love your body and your body will love you.
The physical body wants to move. It is a good month to take up dancing, running, sports, aerobics and other ways to move the body.
Well-being this month includes the movement of energy. You may be inspired to take road trip or have a change of scene, do some travel and be stimulated by other environments and information. Shake it up, change it up, change your routines, be available for something to change and transform.
There is a pressure to transform everything including environments. Completion and clearing of what represents the old is important. What are you holding on to? What is your motivation for doing so? Examine your environment with new eyes and be ruthless about making change. Anything that is old energy or a "someday I will do something with this" needs to be either let go of, completed or revitalized.
Work with the energy of love and make sure you love your environment. If you don't, it will be difficult to feel supported by it. If there are things that irritate you, ask yourself why? What are you putting up with that does not resonate with you? What can you transform? If you share your environment, where can you be accommodating, less resistant and more accepting without completely compromising yourself?
As to nature and the greater planetary environment, look for events that will cause the greatest transformation. These may be sudden and radical and could even be devastating. But they also create the opportunity to bring communities together on a foundation of love and compassion in order to experience a higher emotionally centered time through it all. In this way the fear that may be generated through an experience beyond our control can be transformed into power through love.
Your personal transformation will inform what happens in your business, and with your projects and partnerships. If you put yourself first as we are suggesting, whatever needs change will go through a transformation. Watch irritability and impatience as energy that has been on hold for a time is suddenly ready to move. Focus on connecting with the higher purpose of a project and a higher vibration that is possible in all business and partnerships.
Priorities and motivation play a big part in what goes through transformation this month. Be in love with your work. Be in love with your partners. Be in love with your business. Be in love with your service. If you are not, you should be putting your energy into something where you can be.

Back in my younger days, until I was 11 or So, I did ballet. Every week I went with my grandma to the dance school for lessons and practice.
But being a child who knew exactly what they wanted (trust me, I didn't really), I quit. I tried to reignite the dancing fire at high school (I went to a sports college), but I'm afraid to say the bullies kept me away from that one. So when I hit uni, and I became a bit more me, a bit more carefree, I tried again with adult ballet and hip-hop – I'm not sure I'd be where I am today if I hadn't joined the dance society and gained the confidence I did.
However, since leaving uni, I'm afraid to say dance has faded into the background. I went through a phase of doing Supermalcolms classes at pineapple, but only for 4 months or so. My efforts focused more on fitness at the gym and running (as it's free!), and I forgot how good a dance class can really be – both for physical and mental fitness. That was until I tried out Bollywood fusion this week.
Kiran Kishore, runs two Bollywood classes a week – one at Pineapple Dance Studio and one at the newly opened BASE in Vauxhall. Based on traditional dance moves, choreographed to her favourite Bollywood songs the dances can vary hugely as does the music – but it always looks fun!
You start as all humble Bollywood dancers do, giving thanks to everything which allows you to dance. The warm-up then starts to introduce the traditional moves in a slow repetitive way, so you can start to get a feel for how you need to move your body for the next hour. The warm-up actually felt like an alternative aerobics class. It doesn't take long to get warm, and it's on to the main event.
Kiran talks through the steps four counts at a time, with attendees following the moves. After roughly each 16-32, dependent on how tricky the steps were, we practised to music until we all felt comfortable. There was plenty of space for questions too, of which I obviously asked a couple as the hand positions were completely new to me.
I actually surprised myself with my memory for choreography, as even when Kiran stepped away for one practice round, I just about managed even if I did miss a step or two haha.
But it's not about being perfect. It's about the fun. Enjoying yourself. The effort you put in. The sweat. Moving your body in ways it doesn't usually. Working out in a new exciting way. And trust me, this is a fab way.
It doesn't matter your level, as Kiran is usually at the front to follow, and the moves are broken down into manageable sections. There's lots of time to practise too. I hadn't been dancing for at least a couple of years, and I've never been great at It, it's always been for fun but I picked it up pretty well.
The hour goes pretty quickly once you've got into the swing of it, but at only £7 it's really reasonable for an hour class. What's more, the proceeds actually go to Help Refugees! So it's for a great cause. So there's no excuse 😉
- Price: £7 at Pineapple and £8 at BASE with proceeds going to Help Refugees. (You will need to pay membership to get into pineapple dance studio)
- Fun/serious: so much fun! Great for shaking off the day's stress or even as a girls night activity
- Level: suitable for all. Everything is broken down so well, and plenty of run-throughs
- Recommend? Yes! I want to get the team at work to do a class for team building haha
- How to book: Bollywood fusion is on at Pineapple Dance Studio on Wednesdays 7-8pm (find here) or BASE dance studio Thursday 6-7pm (find here).
Have you tried a new fitness class or fun dance class recently?
*I was invited along to try Bollywood Fusion. All views are honest and my own – I have since pitched a Bollywood class to the Wellness team at work 🙂

Originally I was quite confused with the announcement of Moonlight Online: Global. Here it was a vampire/werewolf influenced MMORPG, yet I had never heard of it. What's more, after doing a little digging I find this MMORPG was actually originally launched in 2012 after taking quite a long time to develop. So why the reboot? The news I found on the website didn't offer much insight, but after perusing a few sites I gathered the game's original aesthetics where geared towards fans of the Twilight series of Edward and Jacob fame. It appears as though that style didnt quite work out for the developers over at IGG.
Thus, the developers decided to close down the MMO and focus on altering its art style to better match the more traditional vampire and werewolf designs. You know the original one with sharp teeth and large claws.
They actually sum up the change in style quite nicely:
Best of all, we've done away with all the mushiness and shininess of any tween pop movies.
Players can play as boring humans, but why would you when you can be the infinitely better werewolves and vampires? There aren't many MMORPGs these days that deviate from the standard Fantasy or Sci-fi theme so it's nice to see an MMO in a new setting. I couldn't find any indications as to whether the actual gameplay has changed, but you only need to wait till March 20th and download the game here to find out for yourself.

This is what took so long to develop? Seriously? Ew. Just..eww. Aesthetics aside, the combat looks so damned sluggish..ugh. This is about as exciting as Flyff..just awful.
No objection! But I still hold the point that MMO without charater-level makes me more excited. For example, Age of Wushu, EVE Online, City of Heroes…
I think this game is no challange at all! Simply follow the steps to forward? No! I quit! I'd rather play Age of Wushu.
ahhhh there's so much new title out now, thunder kings, age of wushu, tera. i cant decide which one to start first.
It's interesting and I believe will be another sandbox hit like Age of Wushu, which many people are following now.
I wanna say, recently comes some weird games, for example Age of Wushu, even with low configurations can we run this game. The dynamic sunlight and shade…the shaking tree leaves…everything looks awesome and amazing!
Tried this game and removed it five minutes after I started.
when your will wow clone, play forsaken world, not this game crap here
The original was a Browser Only title on FaceBook, this launch seems to be a Client version. I thought the original was still up? It's still listed as up on FaceBook but I haven't tried to play for some time to know really.
I don't really see much difference in the style of the graphics. The original advertisements were geared towards Twilight people – the new ones are geared towards people who dislike Twilight, but the graphics of the game seem to actually be the same (only looking a little bit better in the client version than the browser one). It seems they only really changed the advertising and not the actual graphic style.
Other than the Werewolf / Vampire gimmick, the game didn't offer anything new or different. It was a very base game the same as hundreds of others that use the WoW type formula.
And while there are good and different ways to do PvP, this game was a pure unregulated open world gank fest after level 20. People begged for a PvE option or an update to the PvP system. They were ignored. That's a huge part of why the game failed and isn't going to do well again – IGGs stubbornness in keeping the game an open world PvP gank the lower players festival while not adding anything new, different, or fun to the genre.
Huge numbers of games have transformations. There are many better PvP games out there if they're banking on some type of PvP gankers coming to play, and there were no PvE options past 20 (and no warning before hand that that's what the game turned into). I haven't read that this client version is going to be any different.
It was somewhat unique as a Browser game back before there were many full RPGs like this in browser games but it still took up a client sized folder on your system anyway and as mentioned, wasn't that fun after 20 when it turns to gankers paradise.
Agreed, all these people posting; "this was a game?", so out of touch mmorpg community lol! Yes it was a game, announced for several months on almost all mmorpg websites. And flashed as an ad in most other media websites. Any ways,
It launched as FB game but I never saw as twilightish. They never did anything in game really geared towards twilight, they just had some ads suggestive to the movie. It is kind of egotistic to say your piece of crap mmorpg resembles a popular movie. That is like me saying LoTRO represents…oh wait….that ugly game does represent an epic multibillion dollar budget movie with top special effects…so I guess it sort of works like that, add vampires you have twilight.
Like other people hint at, Forsaken world does it, well…TRYS it, and almost wins. They had a serious theme, darker, eviler…but it is forsaken world…the lore and story is over at level 2, and it is just a farm for cash game in carnival events sooooo….pass that up. No one seems to do vampires right, so if these guys just copy and pasted typical mmorpg and added vampires and warewolves…ok, so be it… Im still having fun in the graphically well presented (with amazing story and gameplay) TERA! but I Can see the dial up kids with VGA cards enjoying this title.
They're are 2 types of mmorpg players ones that like pvp ones that dont. IF you dont like pvp especially open world pvp then why bother starting on that game in the first place just to go to forums and gripe and whine about open world pvp? For me if a game does not have open world pvp I will not even bother trying it pve is easy if I just wanted pve I would stick to console games I like a challenge and real life players offer that pve does not. So as I said dont like pvp then dont bother playing the game just to be a whine bag on forums about it. Its not like they hide what the game is all about and you have to play it to be surprised by this "open world gank fest" as you called it.
Graphics aren't nearly as important as gameplay and @Graphicswhore : Your comment about rocking a gameboy is so beyond weak. Gameboys don't have co-operative third person shooters, mmorpgs, online FPS games and the list goes on. Many people look to PC for it's variety and versatility. Sounds to me like you're just trying to justify your empty sense of gaming where as long as it's shiny it's great. You probably liked Final Hallway 13.
First off, if you don't think graphics matter, why even own a pc? Go rock a gameboy from 87 or bust out your Comador 64 and play some Zork. Or hell get rid of all ur rigs and just play games on ur cell. I'm sick of all these hipster nerds so hung up on retro gaming. It's 2013. If a dev team can't make a game with both amazing graphics and gameplay then they should change professions. Free to play has nothing to do with this either. For the original price of a ps3 you can build rig that can max all setting even in planet side 2. Free to play games also make a crap ton more money than p2p games. ps2 gw2 vindictus and dcuo are perfect examples. So again, that logic isnt logic at all. But then again….. Average American iq is 100 so who exactly understands this. Here, in lame mans terms….. If graphics don't matte as much as gameplay, sell all ur tech, buy a dungeon masters guide, and go live the basement dream.
Graphicwhore stop playing video games and just watch Blue ray movies that way you'll get your fill of AMG amazin graphics…
I'll take gameplay over graphics any day of the week. Having pretty graphics is great, sure, but the novelty wears off soon enough, and unless you have solid gameplay backing up those pretty graphics of yours, you're screwed.
What do you consider "amazing graphics" anyway? Personally, I consider Arma 3's graphics to be pretty f'ing great, but should I assume that every developer can make games like that? Can a lot of their players afford a computer to run a game like that online? Probably not. So I'll gladly take a game with slightly worse graphics but better gameplay. Nothing wrong with trying to maximize the amount of people who are able to enjoy your product.
And I own a pc to, among a great deal of other things, have fun gaming. If I really wanted AMAZING GRAPHICS, I could just look out the window. So yeah, I'll stick with good gameplay, thanks.
Not sure if you're in any place to insult someone's intelligence with this comment.
It can be 2013 or 2020, if the gameplay and storyline sucks and the only thing that it has going for it is graphics, then you're basically owning a 20+ gb slide show. No, graphics don't matter, you're just spoiled by those big titles who so happened to have both graphics/gameplay therefore you think every game has to be that way, but it doesn't.
A company can make the most fun game in existence and the graphics would be unremarkable, bet it'd do just as wel as those titles.
It's funny seeing those scarlet blade adverts where it says 'most anticipated mmorpg of 2013'.
It's hard leveling ?
Tons of mmos shall not pass through the wall for here comes Neverwinter to rape them all
Well, I've played both. And even though both games are horrible, Moonlight Online is still better.
Neverwinter..horrible? lol…you high man?
He is very high right now!
Neverwinter is an average mmo, nothing special, except the lore ofc
Like the others said. Neverwinter wont rape anything. Just an avarage game that will be P2W. Never played in Beta Meanwhile? Run around in the Town. Everywhere u look, u see "Zen" and this game is just in Beta. I expect more from a D&D game.
off topic of the game in question,
but sadly agree, I only played a few hours of the last beta but I didn't find that Neverwinter raised the bar at all (damn running here, then running there, then running back…..and what is with seeing distant scenery yet I have to get to just outside long range attack to see mobs?????).
Maybe GW2 has set the precedent for me (even with all the things that are bad with it), so for me in this genre I think ESO is the next thing to look forward to.
get past level 15. Only advice I can give in all honesty. If you find the game to easy the difficulty starts to take a steep climb at 20. At 30 you'll need climbing gear, for the dungeon delves more so because the damn things work more like raids than any 5 man you're used to starting at that point and it's just the half-way mark. It's a good game, good lore, good combat. It's still an mmo none the less and despite what some people would like to think I never found anything amazing about GW2 despite having two max characters.
It does pretty much everything other MMOs do just in a different/more free form manner. But in the end, it's the same crap. -.-
Neverwinter is overhyped as hell , the combat is just annoying (IMO) and the graphics are nothing special.
Graphics aren't going to be computer breakingly good, the entire point of a F2P title is to be played by everyone and anyone, so putting up a graphical barrier would've been a terrible idea. As for the combat, out of personal curiosity what do you find annoying about it? o-o
Trust me I realize that graphics aren't everything, I'm not too demanding on that point either. I'm just saying, graphics isn't something that the game has going for it.
As for the combat, it might very well just be my personal opinion. I didn't enjoy the fact that a lot of the skills require you to aim at the enemy to be used, it made it feel like something in-between action combat and tab-targeting to me.
Overall it's not a bad game by any means, but it certainly doesn't live up to the hype IMO
I see, well to each there own I suppose 🙂 though I can't leave this without stating my opinion that, if you didn't have to aim your skills at the enemy then it would be a tab-target MMO as opposed to action combat. Just my two cents.
Is this world of warcraft?
Forsaken World? No wait…
I was about to say, isn't there already a game with vampires and werewolves- oh, sorry- lycans.
Wow…So they originally planned on making an mmo with shiny, sparkling vampires? Huh. Well, I mean, with all of the sexual themed mmos out there aimed towards the male audience, Scarlet Blade being the most recent, throwing one geared towards women might not be a bad move. But really? A Twilight themed game? I gotta go with the guys down at IGG. It's probably going to be a better game this way. I'll be sure to try it out come the 20th.
That felt so good to do. Probably will never do it again.
CONGRATULATIONS for succesfully mounting! EVERYONE LISTEN! HE JUST MOUNTED! Everyone applause!! *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap* *clap*
