Top 7 mental skills of Olympic athletes - Akwasi Frimpong
Becoming an Olympian is the height of athletic success. It also happens to be one of the great mysteries for other people, who can't seem to understand how these individuals seem naturally destined for success
the thing: while skills certainly play a huge role, it's the mental makeup of Olympic athletes that them to the top.
Take a look at the top 7 mental skills of Olympic athletes:
1. Persistent Positive Attitude
It takes a great deal of determination to become an Olympian, and this determination is fueled by an attitude that's predominantly positive.
Olympic athletes realize that the pursuit of excellence is more important than perfection, and to do so, means considering themselves as their first and foremost competitors.
2. Consistent Perseverance

One defeat does not mean you are a failure. A time where your efforts fail does not mean you give up. Olympic athletes know it all and are able to persist through difficulties knowing that participation itself is enough for growth.
3. Commitment To Goals
First off, Olympic athletes understand the importance of realistic goal-setting. They assess their own capabilities, their strengths and shortcomings, and set measurable short-term and long-term goals. Once they do, they plan and work hard to keep at them.
4. Effective Social Skills
People are a big part of an Olympic athlete's journey. From friends and family to coaches and sponsors, Olympic athletes know how to communicate with them all—which means conveying their thoughts and listening to their advice as well.
5. Thought Regulation
When the going gets tough, the tough go…self-talking. Success Olympic athletes do more than just believe in their skills; they believe in their self-motivation potential too. They boost self-confidence by regulating thoughts and feelings with realistic, inspiring self-talk.
6. Anxiety Management
Anxiety is a part of being a professional athlete. Studies reveal that elite athletes are in fact at risk of mental disorders such as anxiety and depression, relative to population. Olympic athletes learn to convert anxiety into positive energy, and if it gets unbearable, find the right help and support.
7. Ultra Concentration
Focus—Olympic athletes have it mastered. Years of training, balancing their athletic and social aspects of life, and taking part in competitions hones their concentration power. They have a "here-and-now" , leaving worries of the future to the future.
Every Olympic athlete needs to rev their mental skills to help them their dream of becoming a medalist. If you are out on your own pursuit the athletic success, African skeleton sport Olympic athlete and motivational speaker Akwasi Frimpong can be a great source of inspiration for you!

the question is how fast
caramelized white chocolate is added to praline paste and turned into a sandy powder with tapioca maltodextrin. milk chocolate namelaka infused with lime zest bring more balanced sweetness. the raspberry ice cream is rolled in the sandy mixture to mimic another rock. caramelized white chocolate croquant, braised raspberries, and basil leaves round out the dish.
been busy at the restaurant these last few weeks. our chef has moved back to france after accepting a wonderful position in biarritz, which leaves me to run the kitchen until another chef is found...anyone looking to move to central coast california?
so i'll be a little slow putting some stuff up for awhile. wondering how i could still keep desserts exciting while simplifying at the same time...................................

Winning at Contract Negotiation
Rob Enderle provides strategies that have proven to result in more favorable deals, less chance of litigation and better overall outcomes.
Info-Tech Research Group uploaded a request for proposal (RFP) template to make objectively comparing customer relationship management (CRM) software solutions easier. IT managers and other decision-makers must carefully consider the solutions offered by CRM vendors to make choices that best fit the business. The template provides a standardized layout that makes it easier to capture and organize information about a vendor's offerings.https://o1.qnsr.com/log/p.gif?;n=203;c=204663295;s=11915;x=7936;f=201904081034270;u=j;z=TIMESTAMP;a=20410779;e=i
What if you're a vendor, on the other side of the RFP? As companies and government agencies increasingly use RFPs when selecting vendors, many business pros feel the need for resources that help them negotiate the twists and turns of answering lengthy proposal requests. Tom Searcy's "RFPs Suck! How to Master the RFP System Once and for All to Win Big Business" provides a tested, detailed process for vendors to help them know what to look for, what questions to ask and how to evaluate the request.
These Knowledge Network resources can help you achieve RFP success, whether your organization is issuing or responding to a CRM-related request.

Are You Failing to Free Yourself Due to an Outdated Map?
Imagine you are planning a hike in the wilderness. The trek is out of cell phone reception range so no GPS is available. You want to reach a destination that is further out than you have ever been. You finish your plan and head out to the woods.
The sun is shining, it's a cool 65 degrees with a light breeze. You are walking down a wooded path. The sounds of birds, the cool breeze through the leaves and the small animals make you smile. You feel merged with the forest and your thoughts. You snap out of your Zen like state and look around, all around. Your heart races, beads of sweat roll down your neck and your throat dries up and you think
I'm Lost!
You sprint back down the path in the direction you came. Don't stop running until you are in familiar territory again. Sit down on a familiar stump and catch your breath and figure out what happened.
You were using an outdated limited map that was not large enough to include the new territory.
What Kind of Map am I Really Talking About?
I am talking about your mental landscape, your mindset, your context. It is your beliefs, concepts, experiences, values. The lens through which you assign meaning to the events in your life. A filter through which you interpret, perceive and analyze. Your version of what "reality" seems to be. The cause of many of the results in your life.
It is important to remember that the map is not reality itself. Rather it consists of your beliefs about reality. It is not some rock bottom, unmovable characteristic of reality or an absolute truth. This is good news. It means there is much more flexibility for growth than is usually thought.
What Happens When You Expand Your Mindset?
When you expand your mindset what you believe is possible for your life expands. You become more aware that you are the one creating a limiting map. Thus, you have a choice to create a more expansive one.
Expanding the map connects you with your power of invention. You will remember that you created the limited map that has brought you thus far in your life. This occurs through intellectual cooperation. The agreement often operates out of awareness. Expanding the map brings more of "you" to conscious awareness.
Why is it Important to Expand This Map if I Want to Blaze New Trails?
The bottom line is you cannot keep a limited map of self and "reality" and do extraordinary things. Otherwise, it is like trying to squeeze extraordinary things into a small space.
You learn to move a smaller limited version of yourself out of the way to let something much larger in. This is not about giving things up or reducing them down to figure them out. It is about expansion, proliferation, invention and creation.
This requires a willingness for inner change. It is common in our culture for people to dig their feet and claim this or that will not change me. Yet if you want extraordinary things to occur you must expand your version of what is. People often prefer a few magic tricks and quick fixes within their current mindset. True fundamental change doesn't happen that way. You must expand the paradigm itself.
How Can You Best Expand Your Map?
One of the most powerful ways is by increasing the power of your imagination. The imagination is infinite. It is the non-physical and not bound by any rules or logical restrictions.
Not any use of the imagination. You need an explosive, powerful use of the imagination. Imagination explored and expanded in conscious and aware states. Imagination not used to escape reality but rather to create reality. One of the fastest ways to do this is by using certain types of imagination exercises. (*I teach a series of these not found anywhere else).
But What if I'm Not Imaginative/Creative?
Often in our culture we approach changes with only logic. But this is only a very small part of the picture. The real powerhouse behind the curtain is imagination. And it is a natural part of you.
Think of a time in your life when you imagined something changing on purpose. You perceived in a fresh way via your imagination and it sparked massive changes in your life.
For example, someone imagines that they are no longer a smoker. Or someone who is overweight imagines themselves yourself as lean. Or someone imagines themselves in a new role at work. Yes, they need to act to make it happen. But the fuel behind it and to sustain it is in the imagination.
This is about taking conscious control of this very natural ability. Once you get used to it you'll know it is an integral part of who you are. It is not foreign or complicated at all.
People may be at various levels. But everyone has creative abilities. It is innate to who we are. Ever invent your own recipe? Write a story? Start a new life in a new town? Design a house you wanted to live in? So yes… you are creative.
Each person can improve and expand. If you went to the gym and started lifting 5 pounds, and in two weeks you were lifting 10 – that is progress. You start by lifting 100 pounds – well, in a few weeks you can be lifting 150 – also progress. The question is not where others are… the question is where are you – and how can you improve?
Blaze New Trails by Updating Your "Map"
To go further than you have before you cannot use an old limited mental map. You need to expand your context to experience greater possibilities, results and fulfillment. You need something new, something from the outside of the usual map that has brought you thus far. Imagination used in powerful ways is one of the fastest ways to get you there.
It sure beats being lost in the woods!

Water leaking into the car
Water leaking into the car
damn, just so many issues....
What now??
We cannot take the car through car wash?
That's a new one!
If this were true then I would expect a warning about car washes in the user manual or some other official communication from Tesla. Sounds like your M3 needs servicing to calk up what's leaking. This should be covered as a warranty repair.
pay attendtion to a piece of glass / plastic part on the upper right charging door when flips up, seems like it was glued on, once it falls, it won't charge.
I thought brushless car wash was kosher for Tesla. Anyway it has not happened to me. I even had the the "Royal Spa Treatment with Triple Color Foam".
@deezla. Agreed. Always seem to be reading about another new issue.
Only hand wash? What about in the cold months/winter? Ridiculous already.
Hand washed mine the other day and water got in around the windows. Not a lot but enough to have me concerned when I drive in solid rain. Quite a bit of water had pooled under the hood around the frunk but none actually got into the frunk. May need to have a 'Ranger' come out and look at the door seals!?
Most cars have cowl drain hoses that are routed down the front hinge pillars. I have found some stuck shut. Pour some water into the right cowl area and see if it comes out the bottom of the car. There is usually a bit of hose showing out the bottom of the car and some have a little flap on the end. Not at all sure if Teslas have this design.
Triple color foam is very popular in CA, CO, WA...
>>> its only recommend to hand wash.
Sounds like ski boat makers. These days they recommend that you don't store your boat in the water, and won't warranty any gelcoat issues caused by doing so.
A boat...can't be in the water. Amazing.
Yep, went through a touchless wash with my P3D on Saturday. I accelerated hard out of the parking lot and a waterfall of soapy water came steaming into the passenger footwell from behind the glovebox! Soaked my girlfriend's feet. Unbelievable.
Our preferred car wash consistently causes water leaks into the passenger footwell. Approx 1 cup can accumulate on our all weather mats. It doesn't start flowing in until the brush and wash cycle is finished and the high pressure air dry starts. At another similar wash, we see no leaks at all. This will be our first warranty issue. I'll bet they know exactly the cause. Hand wash only is not an acceptable solution. This ought to be a recall issue.
I have to say I'm a bit shocked. I've never owned a car where water leaked into the car. I can confirm this exact issue. I went to a touchless car wash and afterwards I accelerated quickly and a substantial amount to water poured from behind my glovebox onto the floor mat. Very disappointing. I have an october p3d.
I have a service visit in a couple weeks. Any advice on what I should be telling them to fix?
Ahh.. leaks ... you clearly haven't owned a British Car then ! I used to have to put the umbrella up inside my triumph spitfire when it rained, the good news was that there were enough holes in the floor for the water to drain right out. Land Rover sunroof drains are known to have issues than cause water to pour down the A-Pillar and out of the bottom of the glove box - corroding the wiring loom in the sills over time. Had to get out my soldering iron and find the coroded splice one time - to get the power seats and mirrors to work again !
Yeah - if plastic cowl is not sealing to glass well, or doesn't drain well, you could also get such issues.
My car has been wet inside after rains...cannot find where it is leaking... very frustrating
What part of the interior is wet?
@RedTeslaModel3 how long did they need to fix this? Having exact same issue, just booked service
Did the tesla solve your water problem under the glove box? I have exactly the same problem with my model 3 performance.
This happened to my Model 3 today. I got my car in September and normally wash the car myself. I took it to a hand wash today and noticed water dripping when I got in the car. Never seen this before.
I notice last time the meather mat has some dried out soap and didnt know why. Keep an eye out next time you guys wash your car. Im not gere to complain but to raise awareness. https://www.mykfcexperience.vip/
I have a Tesla 2018 S 100 that was outside overnight in the rain. The next morning i noticed puddles of water on the passenger side floorboard. The water was coming from behind the glove compartment. The window was fully closed as was the door. You could clearly see the water dripping down from behind the dash. The car is 5 months old. Tesla service said they could not recreate it. Seriously not ok for a brand new luxury car. Does anyone have a known fix for this?
I have noticed puddles inside my trunk on 3 occasions on days it is raining.

Happy Halloween!
Boo! Who would be afraid of this silly mummy with purple eyes? So simple to make....just tear strips of white paper, sponge the torn edges with choc. chip, adhere to your black card base, tap a black ink pad over the front to make it look dirty then tuck in two crazy eyes.
These spider web cards are fun to make with the new Spider Web Textured Impressions Embossing Folder from the Holiday Mini catalog. The black and white web is made by DE-embossing, that is, using the back side of of the embossed white paper, then rolling a brayer of black ink across it. That way it rolls over the de-bossed impressions and covers the rest while exposing the original paper color. The bat on the orange card is made using the new owl punch and the large oval punch! Simply punch the owl out and cut off his little feet, then cut an oval in half and snip along the edges with a small round punch to make the wings.
I made these treat bags for the stampers at a workshop I have this afternoon. They are made using the Spider Web Embossing Folder as well. I first cut my paper to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (so I could make two bags with one sheet of paper) and scored horizontally at 2", 4", 6" and 8", then turned the paper and scored at 2". I punched one section with the small oval punch, tore off the top edge, sponged it with white Stazon, then assembled. The cello bags are full of candy corn and tied with a bright yellow and orange ribbon and a "BOO" tag from the Tiny Tags stamp set punched with the Jewelry Tag punch. Yummy!

If only those walking the corridors of 30th Street Station this past Monday knew what was underneath them, they might have decided to take a later train just to get one peak at the gigantic fossils being unloaded.
Kenneth Lacovara, assistant professor for the department of biology, has discovered the world's second most massive dinosaur, an achievement he has worked toward for the past five years in Patagonia, Argentina.
"Those bones represent the most complete super-massive dinosaur known, so we are pretty darn excited about this event," Lacovara said.
His team, including Drexel undergraduates, graduate students, and members of the Academy of Natural Sciences, has been digging up this dinosaur every winter since 2004. Years of hard work in the deserts of Patagonia finally paid off when the massive fossils arrived via container ship, docking at Packer Marine Terminal.
"When it finally got here to Philadelphia, I was awestruck," Jessica Battisto, a Drexel alumna, said. Battisto was part of Lacovara's excavation team as a Drexel undergraduate.

#30DAYSINTRANSITION is an online conversation about embracing change
For 30 days I will be sharing bits of my journey that have made me the proud woman I am today. One year ago I chose to come out publicly as transgender online. Since coming forward with my truth I am have been empowered, genuinely happy and now blossoming into a new life. A huge amount of change has occurred in my life and I have learned that the more we engage in conversation together the more familiar we become on all walks of life. In hopes to understand each other for who we are, not our gender or sexual preference. I am extending an open invitation to all of you to take part in this conversation with hopes to inspire each and every single one of you to share your journeys about embracing change!

Knowledge, innovation, entrepreneurship: the ingredients of economic development.
Our contribution: careful analysis, global perspective, feasible projects
Assessing the economic impact of CERN technological procurement
CSIL experts are currently collaborating with the University of Milan and CERN on a study on the possible benefits enjoyed by companies which have worked as suppliers to CERN. This study is part of the Cost/Benefit Assessment study of the HL-LHC project and a potential post-LHC particle collider concept (Future Circular Collider), carried out by University of Milan in collaboration with CERN (over three years period, 2016-2019).
The FCC Week - held in Berlin from May 29 to June 2, 2017 - hosted a special session on this topic opened by Frederic Bordry, CERN Director for Accelerators and Technology, Lucio Rossi (HL-LHC Project Coordinator), Anders Unnervik (Head of Procurement and Industrial Services) and concluded by comments of experts of the Fraunhofer Institute and the Helmholz Association.
Three presentations by experts from CSIL and University of Milan disclosed empirical results on this topic. In particular, CSIL experts presented preliminary results of a recent wide-scale on-line survey launched - between winter and spring 2017 - to all companies which received at least one order from CERN since the Nineties. 669 CERN suppliers - located in 33 countries, mainly from Switzerland (27%), France (20%), Germany (14%), Italy (8%), UK (7%), and Spain (5%) - responded to the survey, representing 16% of the base population of suppliers and 25% of the actual target population (i.e. companies with an e-mail contact). Responses have been processed by CSIL experts by means of Bayesian Network Analysis, which allows to identify the causal mechanisms through which CERN procurement generates learning and economic benefits on suppliers, and, specifically, the role that different interaction modes between CERN and supplier firms play in producing knowledge spillovers.

This story was delivered to BI Intelligence " Digital Media Briefing" subscribers. To learn more and subscribe, please click here.
The New York Times (NYT) beat analyst expectations in both quarterly revenue and profit, propelled by record breaking digital subscriptions.
Here are some key takeaways and implications from The New York Times' Q4 earnings report:
- The NYT added the most digital news subscriptions in five years. In Q4, the Times added 276,000 net digital news customers, which marks the most digital subscription additions in a single quarter since the company launched its pay wall in 2011, according to NYT CEO Mark Thompson. Overall, digital subscribers increased 46% YoY in Q4 to 1.85 million.
- This was largely fueled by coverage of the election. The company saw an increase of 41,000 paid subscriptions for both print and digital in the week that followed the presidential election on November 8.
- Digital advertising revenue also impressed. The NYT digital ad revenue jumped 10.9% in Q4 to $77.6 million, and 6% for the full year 2016 to $208.8 million. The Times cited smartphones, branded content, and programmatic advertising as major digital ad growth areas in the quarter. Digital advertising now accounts for 41.9% of the company's total advertising revenue, up from 34.1% in Q4 2015.
- However, despite digital growth, print declines remained punishing. Print advertising revenue continued to slide in Q4, falling 20% and driving a 9% drop in total advertising revenue in 2016. Declining print advertising revenues, primarily from a drop in display advertising, drove the company's total revenue down 1% YoY in Q4 2016 to $440 million. For the full year, they fell 2% to $1.6 billion.
The New York Times has also been aggressively investing in its digital content portfolio. This past quarter alone, the NYT launched three separate digital formats to enhance its storytelling:
- 360-degree content. This past November, the NYT debuted its own standalone 360-degree offering (The Daily 360), which brings viewers a new 360-degree video every day. The new offering looks to capitalize on the emerging immersive video trend and the success of its VR enabled app NYT VR, which saw more than 600,000 initial downloads.
- Audio content. As of this week, correspondent Michael Barbaro will be the host of a 15-minute podcast, simply called The Daily, outlining the most important news of the day. The move follows in the footsteps of other legacy firms like the Guardian and the Wall Street Journal, which are both taking advantage of the recent podcast explosion.
- Social content. On Thursday, the NYT announced that it will be launching its own Discover section on Snapchat, with the aim of capturing younger demographics. On average, Snapchat reaches 41% of all 18 to 34 year olds in the US, compared to an average US TV network that only reaches 6% of the same age group, according to Nielsen data.
Many digital media companies have embraced monthly and annual subscriptions. This business model allows digital media companies to provide a premium experience that offers more than the basic, often ad-supported service level.
Subscriptions are enjoying a new prominence as a revenue model for digital content and apps. Internet companies are exploiting the opportunity to boost ARPU (average revenue per user), thanks to recurring payments from a subscriber base.
BI Intelligence, Business Insider's premium research service, has compiled a detailed report on subscription revenue that looks at how prominent players in five separate categories have tried to build a subscription-based revenue stream alongside ad-based businesses: the categories are video, music, news publishing, social networks/messaging, and dating apps.
Here are some of the key takeaways:
- Most companies operate on a "freemium model." Subscriptions typically operate alongside an advertising business.
- Success in freemium boils down to offering a core audience exclusive value that can only be accessed beyond a paywall. The key is to target the most loyal audiences, and sell them on an expanded offering — bundles of features or content — that they find irresistible.
- Some publishers and apps have had mixed results with subscriptions, and vary in terms of how hard they have pushed them. Part of the problem is that ad-dependent companies are worried about limiting audience if they pack away too much value into a subscription tier.
- The proportion of paying subscribers within the total user base varies considerably across digital media industries. Each category is obviously different, and won't face the same challenges and opportunities in dialing up the percentage of subscribers and subscription revenue. Here are some of the proportions of subscribers in apps' user bases: Spotify (25%), WhatsApp (21%), Pandora (5%), Match Group (5%), The New York Times (3%), and LinkedIn (2%).
In full, the report:
- Analyzes the most common subscription-based digital media revenue models
- Explores the drivers that allows some subscription or freemium business models succeed
- Explains the revenue mix and business opportunity in several key digital media industries
- Outlines companies that have succeeded with subscription-based business models

Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV Goggles Review
Hi, are you looking for a Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV Goggles review? Welcome, then! I've always been fascinated by FPV goggles and FatShark makes some of the very best. There's a huge demand for FPV goggles right now as the market for FPV drones has skyrocketed, because of the popularity of FPV racing.
Fatshark has a reputation for making the very best FPV goggles on the market, so you have every reason to expect the very best from a Fatshark product. I was impressed by the Fatshark Dominator V2, and was eager to find out how the Fatshark Dominator V3 fares in comparison, and have to say it does pretty well. Let me tell you why!
The Fatshark Dominator V3 Experience
The Fatshark Dominator V3 goggles come with a widescreen screen. When you wear them, it is as though you're watching a movie in a multiplex. Now, the aspect ratio on the Dominator V3 is 16:9 officially, but I felt it was slightly lower than that – but it was good enough.
The picture is as close you will get to HD in an FPV goggle and considering the price you're buying these goggles for, that's more than what you could reasonably expect.
The Fatshark Dominator V3 comes with a tiny fan on the faceplate which ensures that the goggle never gets fogged. I found this to be a huge improvement over its predecessor.
Wearing the Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV goggles is like watching a smartphone display from one foot away. I felt the Fatshark Dominator V3 was easy on the eyes – it didn't strain my eyes as I was wearing them.
Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV goggles come with IPD adjustment, which will be appreciated by those with wider set eyes such as myself. I thought the OSD (on-screen display) was very clear and precise, much better than I've seen on any other FPV drone.
The Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV Goggles Build Quality
I felt the Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV goggles were very lightweight and comfortable, even more so than the Fatshark Dominator V2. Actually, I felt the battery was heavier than the goggles itself, but that's okay because the design is perfect so you don't feel any discomfort whatsoever. I also liked the adjustable IPD sliders that come with the Dominator V3 FPV goggles.
The Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV Goggles Battery Life
I was quite impressed with the high capacity 1800 mAH battery that the Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV goggles come with. It gives you a lot of usage time per charge, which is what every FPV racer expects from an FPV goggle.

August in the Ozarks
We have had such a wet summer - our young trees have grown tremendously. They will need to be trimmed up a bit in the fall. Our Mimosa has gained back all that it lost in the ice storm and then some. The tiny pines and Scarlet Maple that I planted the summer I moved in now tower over the house - is there anything more comforting than coming home to a place where saplings that you nurtured now shade the lawn?
I hope you will share your own observations regarding August in your corner of the world...I'd love to hear from you.

There's wonderful satisfaction in planting something in your yard and seeing it respond,live and thrive. A visual sign that you touched that place and claimed it.ReplyDelete
So jealous you have room to plant trees. My little patch of heaven has such limited space. One tree in front and one in back is just enough, though. If I had room for more I'd plant some kind of evergreen that would stay green through the grey winters.
Your picture and site look really great!
Thanks Kathy. I like to think about the trees providing habitat for critters and shade for people long after I'm no longer here. Our farm had some really old oaks and it was fun to imagine the generations that those trees sheltered. I want to go on planting trees until the day comes that I can't hold a shovel any longer.ReplyDelete

Students majoring in Health and Fitness Studies may pursue interest in such areas as personal training, strength and conditioning training, worksite wellness, health promotions, fitness centers, and graduate school. When you combine the skinny powers of a good supplement with exercise and a good diet then the results can be amazing: ripped abs, and sculpted glutes.

Troubleshooting Common Issues with your Purchase
In an effort to provide you an easy resolution to common technical issues that may arise with your purchased item(s), we've provided some resources below that we hope will help. Just click on a topic to learn more! We also offer other helpful resources you can use to troubleshoot product issues in this section of our Help Center.
- File will not open in my program
- I do not have the program for the product I purchased
- Fonts missing glyphs/swirls/flourishes
- Product is not working the way it's supposed to
- Product is a flat image, and a layered image was advertised.
- Wordpress error during installation
- ZIP file cannot unzip or is corrupted
- I'm having trouble downloading the product
Common Issues
First, make sure you have unzipped your product. Since all Creative Market products are provided as ZIP files (compressed files), you must first unzip the file in order to use the product. If you're unsure how to unzip your file, you can learn how to do that here.
If your product is already unzipped, but you're still having trouble opening the file, please make sure you're opening the file in the correct program on your computer. Here are some common file types found on Creative Market and the corresponding programs that are typically used to open them:
- AI, EPS - Adobe Illustrator
- INDD - Adobe InDesign
- PSD - Adobe Photoshop
- DOC, DOCX - Microsoft Word
- PPT, PPTX - Microsoft PowerPoint
- KEYNOTE - Keynote (for Mac)
- OTF, TTF - font, installable on all computers
For more detailed information about these files and these compatible programs, check out our File Type FAQ page.
We recommend that you review the product description written by the shop owner very carefully before you purchase. Many shop owners clearly describe what software is required and which versions are required of that software, directly in the body of their listing description. Also, pay particular attention to the "Compatible With" parameter in the product specifications directly below the screenshot. Additionally, you can view the included files in the product. This shows important information about file types and software compatibility.
For example, this product is compatible with [Ps] and [Ai], which means that you'll need Photoshop and Illustrator to use the product. Clicking "Preview All Files" shows the product contains both PSD and AI files. (You can view a listing of all of the files in the product by clicking "Preview All Files.")
For more information about common file types, check out this article.
Some sellers have added specific version compatibility information about their products. If they have, it's available if you mouse over the software icon(s):
Otherwise, for specific questions about whether or not the product is compatible with your software or version, we recommend that you contact the seller directly, and they'll be happy to help answer your questions.
Many shop owners include User Guides or "Read Me" files that will get you started after you download the product. Make sure to review these to learn how to work with your new purchase!
If you don't have the specific software required to use the product, you may be able to download a free trial. Below are some links to free trials of the most commonly required software:
- Adobe Creative Cloud Apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc)
- Sketch (Can be used for vector editing for EPS files, etc)
- Microsoft Office (Word, Powerpoint, etc)
There are a couple of reasons why your font may not seem to be functioning correctly. First, please check the product folder to make sure there are no specific instructions provided by the shop owner. Second, it is important to check the program in which you are using the font. Generally, word processing programs such as MS Word, presentation programs such as Microsoft PowerPoint, or cutting programs like Cricut will not offer robust OpenType support. This means they are not built to display some special features (like alternates and ligatures) that many Creative Market fonts offer. In general, we recommend that you use these fonts in more OpenType-savvy programs, such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or Adobe InDesign, etc. These apps are better choices for that type of usage, because they are more equipped to better handle the OpenType features of your purchased font.
To read more about font installation, using your new font, and how to get the most out of your font, check out our Font FAQ.
It's always disappointing when a product doesn't work in the way you expect! If you're having a technical issue, 9 times out of 10 the shop owner is able to resolve your technical concern, so you should contact the shop owner directly to get your specific question answered. Do this by sending them a private message by clicking on the Message button on their shop page or posting in the comments section of the product page.
Note: Most shop owners sell on Creative Market part time, so they may take a few days to reply. Please note: If we contact them on your behalf, it increases the time to reply to you. However, if you don't receive a response in a couple of days, please feel free to contact Support.
First, we would suggest checking the product folder to make sure there aren't multiple versions of your product. Often times, shop owners will provide a flattened sample file along with their original high quality layered file. For instance, a shop owner could include in the product folder a rasterized graphic which will appear pixelated upon enlargement. However, in the same folder, there is a EPS/AI file that contains the scalable, layered vector format of that same graphic that would allow you to resize the product without suffering any loss in quality.
First, please make sure that the theme you purchased is a Wordpress theme. All of our Wordpress themes are found in our category here, and they differ from themes built for other platforms (like Bootstrap, Ghost, Joomla, etc). Additionally, HTML website templates are not the same as Wordpress themes are cannot be installed on Wordpress.
Here are two issues that may prevent you from installing your WordPress theme:
- Please note that Creative Market sells Wordpress.org themes, which you host yourself. In most cases, our themes are not built to work with Wordpress.com. Learn more about WordPress themes/templates on our site here.
- If you got an error message that there was the style.css sheet was missing, the main style sheet may be named something else, and/or is located in a separate css folder. You may have to redirect your software to locate the correct style sheet from this subfolder.
There are a couple things that could be causing the issue. Here's some things to check:
- What size is the original file? Make sure the downloaded file is the same size as the original product file. If your downloaded file is smaller, your file probably did not download correctly.
- I'm getting a cpgz or part file. This signifies an incomplete or partial download, and we suggest that you try downloading the file again.
- File is the correct size, but it is corrupted. If it is a large file, there may have been a download error that occurred. Please try downloading the file again and consider using a download manager to avoid more issues.
- I get a RAR or 7z file. If this is the case, you will need a special extractor, which you can download free here: Windows | Mac
If you're having trouble downloading a product from Creative Market, we recommend you try these tips to troubleshoot the issue:
- It might help to use a download manager, which would allow you to pause/resume downloads and minimize other download issues:
- Make sure your network connection is not lost at any point during your download. Sometimes the network connection may be lost if your computer goes to sleep, which may result in a corrupted .zip file, or a .cpgz or .part file (signifying an incomplete or partial download).
- Restart your browser. Sometimes a quick restart helps clear up any blocks and allows for faster downloads.
- Clear your browser's cache and the Creative Market cookie and try the download again.
- Alternatively, log in using a different browser, trying the download again.
- Please make sure you do not have ad blockers, an anti-virus program like Kaspersky, or a firewall switched on while using Creative Market. We've received reports from our customers that these tools often block downloads and prevent certain actions on the site.
- If you're downloading the file at work, verify that your IT Department allows .zip downloads. Sometimes a corporation's zealous IT security settings can cause issues on our site or even block downloads.
- Please verify that your Internet service plan facilitates downloading large files. We typically recommend internet download speeds of at least 6-12 MBPS to browse our site, while download speeds of 20 MBPS or more are ideal for the smoothest downloading experience. Additionally, it may help to avoid using a shared connection (such as a library or coffee shop), as these lower-bandwidth areas may result in a less-stable connection or slower downloads.
- Finally, using our Dropbox Sync feature may help.
Please let us know if none of these tips work. We'd be happy to further assist you!
NOTE: If you purchased a large product, it might exceed our shop owners' product upload limit. In these cases, the seller has probably has provided download links in a .txt or PDF file that will direct you to download the product from a third-party host, such as Dropbox. If you're having trouble with the link(s), we recommend that you contact the shop owner right away, as they have the most control over the link(s). However, please note that a seller cannot control your internet connection speed, so if you're still having trouble downloading, we'd be happy to continue working with you to provide an alternate solution.

I always sucked at writing...why?
I grew up constantly telling myself I was not a good writer. I AGONIZED over every report and writing assignment I completed in high school. I sucked it up and wrote out assignments in college, groaning all the way. As an adult, looking back, I wasn't a bad writer. Sure I rushed through the assignments just to get them done (do you REALLY have to do a rough draft first?!), and rarely wrote a paper exceeding the minimum word count. I didn't WANT to write. I didn't want to write because I didn't understand what all of the assignments were teaching me. And now, I actually LIKE it! Isn't it weird how our perspectives change?
One of the ways I changed my mind about writing was by (re)discovering journaling. I have always had trouble doing something that had no purpose, and for me journaling didn't have a purpose. Until it did. Through journaling, I've discovered some very important things about myself. (Nope, I'm not sharing them all here. You'll have to follow me for all of that juicy detail!) I've furthered my business beyond where I ever expected to go with it. Because I started writing answers to BUSINESS-RELATED prompts!
Because I'm now a believer, I compiled this list of 35 business journal prompts for you. Are there any more I should include? Let me know!
1. What's my scariest goal right now?
2. Where do you want to work vs. where you're working now?
3. What's your favorite journal page format, and why?
4. What's your favorite activity in your business? How can you do it more?
5. What's your least favorite activity in your business? Why are you not delegating it?
6. What project is your favorite that you've completed? Why?
7. What was your least successful launch, and what can you do better next time?
8. What's the last business book you read, and what was your best take-away from it? Why?
9. What was the best accomplishment you had in the last quarter?
10. What goal did you miss, and why?
11. What's your top 10 dream purchase list?
12. Have you taken care of YOU in the last week? How? Will you do better next week?
13. What's bothering you?
14. What are you afraid of?
15. Are you happy with your health? Do you need to change anything?
16. Who are you working FOR? Who is important to you?
17. What is the most recent thing you did that was creative?
18. Name 5 things you learned in your business in the last year.
19. What do you want to be doing 5 years from now? 10?
20. Name 5 things you want to be remembered for.
21. List 10 things you could teach someone today.
22. Who is your current business hero? Why?
23. Discuss something in the news media that is affecting your business.
24. Is there a symbol, animal, or number recurring in your life right now? Research what it means.
25. Are you the same you at work and at play?
26. Do you need to reach out to someone for help this week?
27. What is stopping you from finishing your current project?
28. What's your favorite business tip? Why?
29. What should you go back and tell yourself as a teenager?
30. Have you had a big a-ha moment recently? Describe it.
31. Name 5 people you are grateful for and describe why.
32. Discuss your favorite blog post that you read in the last week. Did you write it or someone else?
33. If you could go back and re-launch any of your products, which one would you launch?
34. What's your ideal office space look like?
35. What is your current affirmation?

Hi guys,
obviously will enquire with the authorities here in the UK but I've just moved to London and wondering if anyone knows what a NZ Motorcyle Learners would convert to? I'm 27 years old if that matters and held it for about 9 years (yes I really should upgrade it at some point).
Not all that clear on the website.

I've been reflecting a lot recently. After finishing university I needed some time to recover, I'd had years and years of exams – 9 years of constant exams and coursework from GCSE to masters to be precise! And I just needed a break, I was having some health problems that had cropped up and just needed some thinking time. Time to actually make peace with me, and listen to the voice in my own head.
I knew where I was going in the long-term. I knew where I wanted to be in 10-15 years, I knew what my ultimate goals were. But I didn't have a plan for how to get there. So many people make 5-year-plans, I skipped that one and jumped straight to the long-term goals. Which in some ways was great, it gave me something to work for and a goal whilst I was at university. I woke up every day with a purpose. And I do believe we all need that. But it wasn't useful for day to day life.
Finding Purpose
It's important to have a reason to wake up in the morning, a reason to keep going and to push through whenever you're struggling. But these don't need to be huge goals. You don't need to sit down and write that you're working towards being president, that you're going to invent something life-changing.
It's a case of knowing your own beliefs and values and sticking to them. I sat down and connected back with myself. As cliche as it sounds. I looked at my own actions and my beliefs and re-evaluated everything. Tried to justify all my beliefs to myself.
For example, I've been vegetarian my whole life. I never made the decision to become vegetarian, so I needed to sit down and re-evaluate. Make sure I had a reason for believing that and knew what decision I was making. I was holding myself accountable for my own decisions.
You can also apply this to religious beliefs, beliefs about how to live – do you want to buy or rent, how do you want to work?
Not going to get into my own personal views because this blog isn't focused on a debate of my own beliefs, I just want to help you all to be able to make these decisions and act as a prompt so you can also have thinking time!
Finding Joy
I've been reassessing everything. I've taken the words from Marie Kondo's Lifechanging Magic of Tidying Up and applied it to everything, not just material possessions. We can declutter everything… commitments, relationships, all of the non-physical things in our lives.
I'm now in a position where I'm happy with the things in my life. I want everything I have. I love everything I have. I love all the people in it. And I now know I can give everyone and everything my full time and commitment… and that it's valued.
I really encourage you all to look at your lives, look at your average day. How much of that do you need to do? How much of it do you enjoy doing? How much of it is necessary?
Then look at relationships, do all of your friends help you grow and thrive? Is your relationship with your partner – if you have one – healthy? Try not to drive yourself insane, you'll know straight away. Just ask yourself whether it makes you happy. And cut out things that don't make you happy.
Learning To Be Me
I've really been learning what it means to be me, learning to be comfortable with my own skin. Making peace with myself. It was just a case of really looking into myself and realigning everything.
It's been a long process, I don't think I'll ever be finished because we always need to have an update as we grow and change! But this is my life now.
Hopefully, this one wasn't too heavy for you, are you facing clutter in your life? If you're finding it hard to balance everything, then maybe it's time to take a look and try and make your life a little simpler!
Have a lovely bank holiday weekend, and stay happy!

Comments Off on Three Tweaks Shave Eight Months off Time to Write Novel
Three Tweaks Shave Eight Months off Time to Write Novel
Three tweaks to my writing process enabled me to finish The Case of the Missing Drag Queen in a record-breaking four months rather than the usual twelve or more needed to write my first four books. To be honest, the changes brought my process more in line with what experts recommend. #SlowLearner Tweak #1: Write Every Day I tried to write every day. In the past, I've waited for weekends and other days off and written until I simply couldn't write anymore. The greater the time between sessions, the longer it took to get back into the story, and the more likely I was to waste time editing and revising instead of adding new chapters. Tweak #2: Stop in the …

All the above problems are extrinsic and can be eliminated in the coming times but the major hurdle which any entrepreneur in India faces is the society in which we are living. In India entrepreneurship is seen as a last option rather than a choice. Actually the root of the problem lies in the academic system which is designed for jobs. Skills of students are sharpened just in an effort to make them suitable for adopting a corporate environment. India will become superpower only when it will see a plethora of entrepreneurs but the most important question lies ahead is when our society will be ready to accept entrepreneur as an opportunist rather than a black sheep? And as a part of the same society what role we need to play?[/sociallocker]

The ILA's mission is to to promote the advancement of healthy longevity for all people through scientific research, technological development, medical treatment, public health, education, advocacy and social activism. http://longevityalliance.org/manifesto/
In the past year, ILA has grown. ILA groups now exist in over 50 countries, with unofficial membership ranging in the thousands. It is on its way to official registration in France as a "Fonds de Dotation" (Endowment Fund) and will act as an alliance of pro-longevity non-profit organizations ("NPOs") from around the world.
http://longevityalliance.org/for-an-active-2013-for-international-longevity-alliance/ (also here Collaborations)
The manifesto of the International Longevity Alliance has been translated into 18 languages http://longevityalliance.org/longevity-is-the-common-language/. Several national sites, directly associated with ILA, have been created to promote cooperation and exchange of knowledge in various national languages, including sites for Finland, Japan, Italy, Egypt, India, Israel (also longevityhistory.com), Colombia, France, and some integrated sites for national groups, such as Longevity Day. These sites are in addition to ILA's main online platforms at: http://longevityalliance.org/ and http://www.denigma.de/.
2. A Merit-Based System
We plan to develop a formal system of awards. Some ranks and grades have been initiated on the Denigma platform for performing specific tasks and quests. Yet, the main award system emerged spontaneously. Whoever steps up to initiate or participate in a project gets to do it! We have formed our leadership core on this model. In time, we will develop online projects and activists management systems. Still, our main reward is knowing that we work to advance the cause of longevity for the benefit of mankind.
3. Activism: Meetings, Conferences, Longevity Day & Longevity Month
In 2013, ILA developed extensive on-line communications within the alliance http://longevityalliance.org/groups-supporting-longevity-research-in-different-countries/.
Live meetings and conferences have also been some of our strongest activities. This year, ILA organized two concerted worldwide pro-longevity actions. On March 1, 2013, International Future Day had longevity as its main theme, due to ILA's initiative. The day involved meetings and publicity events in over 20 countries http://longevityalliance.org/for-the-future-of-longevity/.
October 1, 2013, was the United Nations' International Day of Older Persons, which ILA proposed to celebrate as International Longevity Day. On that day, events ranging from small meetings to large conferences took place in over 30 countries. http://longevityalliance.org/celebrations-of-the-international-longevity-day-around-the-world/
Also in 2013, ILA core activists helped to organize and/or strongly participated in scientific conferences and panels throughout the year, including: The 8th European Congress of Biogerontology, at Beer Sheva - Dead Sea, Israel, March 10-13; TedMed Live, Moscow, Russia, April 17-19; 20th IAGG World Congress on Gerontology and Geriatrics in Seoul, South Korea, June 23-27; Sixth Conference on Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS6), Cambridge, UK, September 3-7; Rostock Symposium on Systems Biology and Bioinformatics in Aging Research in Rostock, Germany, September 20-21; Radical Life Extension Conference, Washington DC, September 21; From Biology of Aging to Longevity and Quality of Life, Tel Aviv, Israel, October 1; International Istanbul Initiative on Aging, Istanbul, Turkey, October 3-7; Science Day Celebrations, Kiev, Ukraine, November 10, and more.
For 2014, we plan even more conferences and coordinated international actions. We proposed to focus less on Longevity Day (though it can still be mentioned), and rather will introduce and focus on an entire Longevity Month (probably October). A Longevity Month will have the same organizing and motivating power as Longevity Day, but with greater flexibility, allowing for more events in more places over a longer time period, with greater opportunities for media coverage and public recognition.
We plan to commence Longevity Month on October 1-3, 2014, kicking off at the Heales conference in Brussels – the Eurosymposium on Healthy Aging, an extension of the original conference where many ILA charter members first met in 2012. We envision this gathering of life extension activists from around the world as a seminal International Longevity Summit to coordinate and plan together for the forthcoming month and year, after which participants will return home to organize their own local events, taking care to engage the media in advance.
Other Events:
The ILA and its collaborators will also plan, organize and promote other conferences throughout 2014, including:
India: On June 10-13, 2014, core ILA activists will be organizing a symposium at the 12th Global Conference on Ageing, in Hyderabad, India, entitled "The Aging Process as the Main Underlying Cause of Non-communicable Diseases: Science and Policy". Through this panel, we hope to raise interest in the subject of healthy longevity in India and elsewhere.
Germany: ILA activists will also play a key part in the roundtable Discussion on Healthy Aging taking place at the Hauptstadtkongress 2014, the main German healthcare-related event, in Berlin on June 27, 2014, in a session entitled "Am Puls der Zeit: Regeneration und Verlangsamung des Alterungsprozesses in der Welt von Übermorgen" (On the Pulse of Time: Regeneration and Inhibition of Aging Processes in the World of Tomorrow).
Israel: ILA members plan to produce a special issue of the life-extensionist magazine "Hava Lehaba" ("Let us live from now on") dedicated to scientific and social aspects of life extension, possibly involving a call for papers/essay competition at both humanitarian and scientific university departments, and ending with a large conference in honor of the issue, with invitations of dignitaries and media. It is planned to take place in July.
Throughout 2014, ILA will also promote events related to longevity research organized by our friends, including: Transhuman Visions in San Francisco, USA (planned for February), the Alianza Futurista summit in Spain (planned for March), the International Conference on Genetics of Aging and Longevity in Sochi, Russia (planned for April), New Applications of Aging Research in Switzerland (planned for September), and the Transvision Conference in France (planned for November).
We will also encourage continuous smaller events, meetings and seminars throughout the year and throughout the world. We invite local activists to organize such events.
Denigma (denigma.de) has become the main platform for information collection and exchange. The Lifespan App on Denigma, which systematically maps determinants that prolong (or limit) lifespan in a variety of models, has become the main repository of information on longevity and life extension. It contains information from a variety of sources: Studies, Experiments, Measurements, Comparisons, Factors, Variants, and Interventions extending the lifespan.
ILA has created an informational database that identifies aging and longevity researchers and research centers and provides linking tools to help newcomers and specialists navigate the field. Automated project management has been initiated and will be further developed in 2014 to allow interested persons to learn about and join particular projects of ILA and its collaborators.
ILA has initiated an extensive online course on longevity research, entitled "Biogerontology 101", which will include sections on the biological, computational and social aspects of aging and longevity research. It will contribute to advancements that can lead to healthy lifespan extension in a variety of forms. It will help train future promoters, programmers, experimentalists and advocates for longevity research. The course curriculum is being developed and funding is sought. We project that the course will launch in mid-2014. The format can be easily replicated in several languages. Shorter presentations based on the course, covering various topics of longevity research and advocacy, may be provided to activists to help them organize local seminars and workshops.
ILA hosts an ongoing Skype meeting: "Longevity 24/7". We are testing a variety of video chat platforms for ongoing online communication, and we are developing a video chat on the Denigma platform.
Denigma (Deciphering the Enigma of Aging), based on the Linux open-source operating system, is the main ILA IT platform to collect, hold and distribute information. In 2013, the platform was extensively developed. Deliverables produced during this year include: the building of Denigma Legacy: denigma.de; Longevity Variant Database: longevitydb.org; Denigma Destiny: denigma.org. We have used the platform to establish molecular profiles on ageing and powerful biomarkers to accurately measure biological age and effect of anti-aging interventions (focusing on genetic targets and functional prediction on miRNAs). We have used it to analyze aging-suppressor gene activity measurements (data analysis to link levels with phenotype); to reveal the role of mitochondrial heteroplasmy and metabolic influence (link levels with phenotype); to validate the role of aging as the main cause of diseases. We have provided exact descriptions of the individual influences of aging hallmarks and created hundreds of ontologies and linked annotated data on aging.
In the next year, this work will continue and, with sufficient support, this platform can become the central global hub of knowledge, tools and communications for research on aging and longevity.
9. The "Longevity Multimedia" Project
ILA has initiated several projects enabling people to visualize aspects of longevity research, including: visualization of various aging processes: denigma.de/data/entry/graph-visualization; and the Lifespan Application, the core of the Lifespan Repository, devoted to visualizing lifespan experimental data denigma.de/lifespan/. We are also developing methods for viewing gene interaction denigma.de/data/entry/deciphering-aging and protein structure denigma.de/lifespan/factor/Trp53/. We will develop additional visual interactive tools in the coming year.
A newsletter has not been developed as originally planned. Rather, ILA maintains a regular news blog at longevityalliance.org. A newsletter may be created at a later date. Newsletters in various national languages may be of particular value where information is scarce. An important task will be the creation of popular and attractive content on longevity research and advocacy in multiple languages for diverse audiences. Writers and promoters of such content will be sought.
After many deliberations and contests, the International Longevity Alliance logo has been chosen. Special thanks to members of the Colombian Longevity Alliance and Italian Longevity Alliance for their joint work in conceptualizing and creating the logo. Following the decision on the logo, a special group "Longevity Art" was established to encourage the creation of new art works to help visualize, draw attention to and spread the concept of Longevity Advocacy in the public.
ILA is initiating projects to test life-extending interventions in mice, other domestic animals and simpler organisms using both academic and do-it-yourself biology platforms. In 2013, we initiated a project on life-span extension in mice in cooperation with the Institute of Gerontology in Kiev, Ukraine. Test protocols have been developed for potential anti-aging drugs, as well as a plasma test for pathologies. Logistic procedures have been established. The do-it-yourself biology platform has been further strengthened to encourage testing life-extending interventions in rats and hamsters at home.
The French chapter of ILA ("Longévité & Santé" – "Longevity and Health") leads this project. It has established possible ways to create e-cohort epidemiological studies of healthy longevity indicators. The goal is to employ citizen science to prevent age-related health decline. An overview of current progress can be seen at sceauxlongevitesante.org/deacutemonstrateur-citadin-de-preacutevention.html. Quantified Health approach and designs were discussed at several events in France: on October 5th sceauxlongevitesante.org/longevity-day-france-2013.html and December 17th: meetup.com/QSParis/events/150469852/.
The Longevity Media Team has been initiated, with core representation from the Canadian Longevity Alliance, and also involving members from the UK, US and other countries. The purpose of this team is to facilitate the creation of postings and news on longevity research in the media (both mass media and social media), actively pushing for the public visibility of the topic.
In 2013, ILA submitted several grant proposals for developing ILA and its IT infrastructure. Applications included: The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; Winnovation Foundation in Israel; UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC). Two recent proposals were to establish a research group on Basic Formal Gerontology, within the EC Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) framework, that involved 40 participants from 17 countries, and a proposal for the development of Healthy Longevity Alliance (COST proposal), involving 23 participants from 14 countries. In 2014 we will further apply to a variety of funding agencies.
In 2013, ILA conducted a successful crowdfunding campaign to support lifespan extension experiments in mice at the Chebotarev Institute of Gerontology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences, Kiev, Ukraine. The campaign entitled "I am a little mouse and I want to live longer" has been a success with over $20,000 collected. Thanks to all the donors, and special thanks to the SENS Research Foundation and the Methuselah Foundation for their generous participation! indiegogo.com/projects/i-am-a-little-mouse-and-i-want-to-live-longer
ILA will pursue more opportunities for crowdfunding and other innovative funding in 2014.
17. International Lobbying for Aging and Longevity Research
ILA has created a special team for legal support of longevity research. The team will analyze the regulatory framework for aging and longevity research and propose ways to promote our cause. Several high-level contacts have been established. Proposals for laws in support of aging and longevity research, initiated earlier, were further promoted in 2013 by people directly associated with ILA in Israel, Ukraine and South Korea.
Such proposals can be replicated in many other places and further advanced.
Several public petitions have been initiated in support of Longevity Research: to the EC, US Congress, and the UN.
Several such petitions have been gathered at Longevity Intelligence Communications.
In 2014, we will continue our advocacy efforts, from grass roots to higher levels.
Early in 2013, a special project was initiated to help fund treatment for a prominent biogerontologist, Dr. Stephen Coles, head of the UCLA Gerontology Research Group http://longevityalliance.org/help-save-dr-stephen-coles/. We are pleased to report that Dr. Coles' condition has improved for reasons apparently unrelated to our efforts. We are proud to have participated in his search for treatment, a model action combining communal, humanitarian and scientific aspects. In 2014, ILA will continue to initiate actions involving those components.
The four main categories will be:
1) Modeling – Developing IT platforms for collecting, formalizing, structuring and exchanging knowledge regarding aging and lifespan extension, in order to systematize, plan and prioritize various approaches for the extension of healthy human lifespan for the entire global population.
2) Testing – Promoting and performing scientific testing for lifespan extension; creating sets of rules and methodologies to test interventions related to potential lifespan increase. We will aim to facilitate high standards and best practices in longevity research and support open-access citizen science for longevity research.
3) Education – Offering instruction for both the general public and specialists regarding the biology of aging and lifespan extension; promoting studies regarding these topics for the general public, researchers, medical professionals, journalists and decision makers.
4) Advocacy — Offering policy recommendations in accordance to ILA's objectives and promoting them to the general public and to policy makers at the national and international levels where appropriate according to national/international legislation; building up a supporting community to promote longevity research, a community which would embrace a wide spectrum of social categories and geographical areas.
These areas of activity, reorganized, can be effectively abbreviated as TEAM.
Our mission
: To promote the advancement of healthy longevity for all people through scientific research, technological development, medical treatment, public health, education, advocacy and social activism.
Our main tasks for 2014 and on:
To create an effective world-wide infrastructure for networking and collaboration of longevity researchers and activists and to create the widest possible integration, coordination and dissemination of knowledge in the field of healthy longevity.
Specific projects will include:
Developing the Denigma platform into a central global hub of knowledge, tools and communications for research on aging and longevity.
Developing automated activists and project management system.
Establishing a screening project to test lifespan-extending interventions in mice. A thorough and well-selected screening of potential life-extension techniques could achieve in a few years what traditional research would achieve in many decades.
Creating a database and analytical tools on healthy human longevity.
Further developing national sites and portals in various languages, both in terms of IT infrastructure and content.
Organizing the "Longevity Month" in October, starting with the International Longevity Summit in Brussels, and continuing to local events.
Organizing, promoting and participating in large scientific and activist conferences, including India (June 10-13), Germany (June 27), Israel (July) and more.
Encouraging continuous smaller events, meetings and seminars throughout the year and throughout the world.
Seeking funding for longevity research.
Developing ideas for crowd-funding and other innovative funding sources.
Developing a course on longevity research.
Continuing our advocacy efforts, from grass roots to higher levels, including petitions, law proposals, developing legal infrastructure to facilitate longevity research.
Pursuing media outreach, establishing a database of potential media venues and contacts with media representatives, actively promoting press releases.
Publishing books (original and translations) increasing the visibility of longevity research.
Strengthening publications in social media.
Registering pro-longevity NPOs in several countries.

About Hunting Shadows:
"Marks the entrance of a major new talent. Sheila Bugler delivers a chilling psychological twister of a novel, laced with homespun horrors, a compelling central character in DI Ellen Kelly and a strong contemporary resonance. Fans of Nicci French and Sophie Hannah, prick up your ears." Cathi Unsworth
a very satisfying psychological thrillerChris Curran
this is a very good second book, at least the equal of Hunting Shadows, with which it shares the same psychological insights and chilling climaxCrimeReview.co.uk
There are murder mysteries, police procedurals and psychological thrillers – and then there are books which combine elements of all three. The Waiting Game is one of these … It's a tangled web of a plot, and though the reader knows more than the police do from the outset, through frequent shifts in viewpoint which allow the story to emerge from several different directions, the final dramatic reveal is still a surprise. Bugler handles the complex structure deftly, dropping in subtle hints and stopping short of giving too much away too soon. Her villains and potential suspects are as well-rounded as the good guys, and she sets up some interestingly flawed characters and scratchy relationships among Ellen's colleagues. The less salubrious end of south London is drawn in detail too, and she also doesn't pull back from graphic accounts of mutilation and killing methods … a fluent read … a page-turning plotPromoting Crime
one of the rising stars of Irish literatureClare People
full of chilling twists and turns, I found the story gripping … overall an enjoyable read with plenty to hold the interestFiction is Stranger Than Fact

By Belgian Red Cross and Giovanni Zambello, IFRC
Last Sunday, after a bus carrying 39 Russian teenagers crashed on the E34 while heading to Antwerp, Belgium – killing five people and injuring 19 - a total of more than 100 volunteers from the emergency and social intervention services of the Belgian Red Cross, Flemish community, worked around the clock to assist the people involved in the deadly accident.
Over 30 Red Cross volunteers and staff arrived at the disaster site minutes after the crash to bring immediate medical support to the people involved, starting to transport the injured to the nearest hospitals in Lier, Malle, Herentals, Deurne and Antwerp, and setting up an advanced medical post in a nearby area where they performed triage - the process of categorization of patients based on the severity of their injuries.
Immediately after receiving the news of the crash, the Russian Red Cross, in close cooperation with the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, got in touch with the Belgian Red Cross through the IFRC Europe Zone Office to offer support, while the Russian Ministry of Health deployed two health teams to the Belgium to assist the Red Cross in the relief operations.
In the meantime, volunteers of the social intervention service ensured the the best possible care for the uninjured youth, and took care of the identification of all children in the hospitals where they were taken. The uninjured ones were initially hosted in the fire station of Zandhoven, where they were offered drinks, food, blankets and psychosocial support, and were later moved to Kinderboerderij 't Groenhof, a youth centre in the nearby Pulle, where in the course of the afternoon all children allowed to leave the hospital were also taken. All of them were eventually repatriated from the airport in Zaventem around 2am.
As all the people involved in the accident were Russian, one of the issues faced by the Belgian Red Cross during the relief operation was obviously the language barrier, which made the presence translators an absolute necessity. Thanks to the help of the Russian community in Belgium, the network of the service for asylum seekers and international cooperation, the Belgian Red Cross quickly managed to find Dutch-Russian interpreters within the organisation itself, who volunteered to liaise between the volunteers and the people assisted, and were immediately deployed to the hospitals under the guidance of the volunteers of the social intervention service. An inspiring example of the capacity of the Red Cross to make best use of its own resources to find creative solutions to unexpected challenges.
