This font is inspired from an early 20th century Russian alphabet. I auto-traced just a few letters to spell BRONX to make a t-shirt for my friend JJ who lives there. I got carried away and created the whole alphabet. They were all capital letters, the lowercases and puctuations I got from two other vintage sources.

Erik FaulhaberTrademark
Aeonis is a trademark of Monotype GmbH and may be registered in certain jurisdictions.Copyright
Copyright 2009-2013 Monotype GmbH. All rights reserved.Description
Following Generis, Aeonis is Erik Faulhaber's second large type family. Lapidary inscriptions from Ancient Greece supured Faulhaber on to create this typeface?s basic sans serif forms. This clarity is visible in the simplified form of the typeface's capital A. Further inspiration came from a domed lamp designed in 1952 by Wilhelm Wagonfeld; this went on to inspire the roundness in Aeonis. Faulhaber sees the conflict between antiquity and modernity as a struggle between angular and round forms; Aeonis reconciles these trends. By removing spurs at the stems of the lowercase letters, Aeonis reduces the alphabet to its most basic movements; and in order to further strengthen reading speed, all of the unnecessary horizontal elements lave been left out of the lowercase letters and numbers, too. Aeonis is available in three widths and seven weights. Its open letterforms ensure legibility at small sizes. Aeonis works both in complex text layouts and simple logos. As was the case in the Generis family, all of the numbers, currency symbols, mathematical signs, and punctuation marks in the Aeonis fonts have a coordinated system of widths, ensuring their suitability for tables and financial reports. All of its members of the Aeonis family may easily be used with each other; their design combines a contemporary character with sophisticated typography.License

The first cuts of Trade Gothic were designed by Jackson Burke in 1948. He continued to work on further weights and styles until 1960 while he was director of type development for Mergenthaler-Linotype in the USA. Trade Gothic does not display as much unifying family structure as other popular sans serif font families, but this dissonance adds a bit of earthy naturalism to its appeal. Trade Gothic is often seen in advertising and multimedia in combination with roman text fonts, and the condensed versions are popular in the newspaper industry for headlines.License

I was blessed to survive this crash, when my cruiser was struck by 2 pickups trying to beat a red light. Drivers may not hear your siren in today's well-insulated cars, and may be too distracted to notice your emergency lights.
The surgeon later told me I would not have survived without my seatbelt and my vest (which he felt prevented already severe trauma from being far worse by spreading the impact and encasing my crushed rib cage).
Clear EVERY intersection. Wear your vest. Survive.

On November 21 we announced the introduction of analyst-driven unit trust research to South Africa. While Morningstar has been conducting fund research since 1986 this marks our first foray into Africa. The launch introduces two ground-breaking tools to help South African fund investors and advisors: The Morningstar Analyst Rating and Fund Report. Both tools are designed to convey Morningstar's expectations for a unit trust's ability to produce future outperformance.
Morningstar Analyst Ratings are assigned globally on a five-tier scale running from Gold to Negative. The top three ratings, Gold, Silver, and Bronze – what we call Morningstar Medallists – all indicate that our analysts recommend a fund; the difference between them corresponds to differences in the level of analyst conviction in a fund's ability to outperform its benchmark and peers through time. The Neutral and Negative ratings are assigned to funds that we lack confidence in or believe are impaired in some way.
The ratings should be interpreted as follows:
- Recommended Ratings:
- Gold: Best-of-breed fund that distinguishes itself across the five pillars (our ratings criteria) and has garnered the analysts' highest level of conviction;
- Silver: Fund with notable advantages across several, but perhaps not all, of the five pillars; strengths that give the analysts a high level of conviction;
- Bronze: Fund with advantages that outweigh any disadvantages across the five pillars, with sufficient level of analyst conviction to warrant a recommended rating;
- Neutral: Fund that isn't likely to deliver standout returns, but also isn't likely to significantly underperform;
- Negative: Fund with at least one flaw that is likely to significantly hamper future performance, and is considered an inferior offering to its peers.
Morningstar's fund research is completely independent. We do not seek or accept payment from fund companies for issuing ratings or reports on funds. Morningstar was founded on the belief that investors have the right to unbiased information and analysis and we continue to hold that belief today. This gives us the freedom to speak frankly about a fund's prospects and to spend our time analyzing those funds that investors most care about.
We are also introducing the Morningstar Fund Report. We offer the report in two formats: a condensed free version aimed at retail investors and a longer form report aimed at institutions and sophisticated advisors. The report details the research our analysts have conducted and discusses the factors that have led to the fund's Morningstar Analyst Rating. The Fund Report also provides robust quantitative data to help investors understand a fund's characteristics.
Morningstar's evaluation of a fund is based on five key criteria or pillars: People, Process, Parent, Performance, and Price (see methodology document below for more information). Fund analysts use a combination of public data, proprietary data, and extensive meetings with fund managers and fund company executives to inform their research. All ratings are subject to a rigorous peer review process and require approval through Morningstar's global ratings committee.
Morningstar rated funds are monitored constantly and our reports and ratings are updated anytime a significant development occurs that may change our thesis (e.g. a change of fund manager). However, we do strive to update reports annually whether or not any significant developments occur.
The Morningstar Analyst Rating and Global Fund Report can be found in the following Morningstar products:
- Morningstar Direct (Institutional Fund Report)
- Morningstar Advisor Workstation (seletively available)
- www.morningstarsa.co.za (Retail Fund Report)

A Simple Twist of FateJuly 1st, 2013
David Byrne and St. Vincent – The Capitol Theatre – June 29, 2013
Do you believe in fate? For me, a series of chance encounters over the years has led to a live performance by the collaborative pair David Byrne and St. Vincent. Back in May 2009, I spotted Byrne in the rafters of Webster Hall enjoying Annie Clark's guitar prowess in support of her sophomore release, Actor. Fast-forward two years, the starstruck folks ahead of me in line for a James Blake show at Le Poisson Rouge were gushing about a walk-by encounter with Byrne and Clark. And Saturday night at the grand Capitol Theatre, a belated musical date started with the delicate chirping of birds welcoming audience members to their seats and spotlights framing several brass instruments strewn across the stage.
Filing in, a noticeably blonde Clark joined a headset-donning Byrne as horns blared on the opening number, "Who." The evening intermixed songs from their joint effort, Love This Giant, with Talking Heads and St. Vincent standards. Heavily produced with playful choreography by Annie-B Parson, the brass band along with Byrne formed lines as if ready for a roll call on "Weekend in the Dust." Clark spent most of her time shimmying back and forth across the open floor, toting her electric guitar. Byrne offered his own dance moves with some soft-shoe on "I Am an Ape." As if stripped from the trash-compactor scene in Star Wars, Clark was walled in by the band moving dangerously closer and closer as she sang-spelled, "H-E-L-P, Help me, help me" on the strobe-light-inducing "Marrow."
Byrne ditched his blazer to reveal suspenders on "Ice Age" and demonstrated his skills on the bugle. He called on Clark to join him front and center for "Like Humans Do," to which she jokingly inquired, "What did we win?" But in all seriousness upon concluding "Lightning," she sincerely remarked, "We're superglad to be here." And judging from the vocal responses from the crowd, so were those in attendance. Byrne revealed that "Wild Wild Life" was originally written for a video karaoke contest before everyone in the band joined in on the Talking Heads favorite, each singing a line from the song. For more fun, everyone but Clark lay down on the stage as she slowly crooned "Cheerleader." Later she would battle against Byrne playing the theremin on "Northern Lights." And saving the best for last, the pair returned for not one, but two encores, treating the audience to "Cruel," "Burning Down the House," "The Party" and "Road to Nowhere." —Sharlene Chiu

Arguments For Zoos
* By bringing pеople and animals together, zoos educate the public and foster an appreciation of the animals. This exposure and education motivates people to protect the animals. * Zoos save endangered species by bringing them into a safe environment, where they are protected from poachers, habitat loss, starvation and predators. * Many zoos also have breeding programs for endangered species. In the wild, these individuals might have trouble finding mates and breeding. * Reputable zoos are accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and are held to high standards for the treatment of the animals. According to the AZA, accreditation means, "official recognition and approval of a zoo or aquarium by a group of experts." * A good zoo provides an enriched habitat in which the animals are never bored, are well cared-for, and have plenty of space. * Zoos are a tradition, and a visit to a zoo is a wholesome, family activity. * Seeing an animal in person is a much more personal and more memorable experience than seeing that animal in a nature documentary. * Some would...

There's 47 per cent born every minute
Some 47 per cent of people with access to the internet would be prepared to use a single website to manage all of their finances,...
The study, conducted by TCA Consulting, which provides business and IT advice to the financial sector, also found that 51 per cent of people - both with and without internet access - believe technology will become advanced enough to manage their banking in the future.
Shifting the landscape of gender and diversity
The number of women in tech in Europe is an average of 16%. This guide offers a collection of articles highlighting some of the prominent issues surrounding increasing the number of women in the IT industry.
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.

Almost half of internet users would be happy to manage their current accounts on-line in the future while some 32 per cent would consider managing their mortgages over the web. In addition, 43 per cent of respondents said they would administer their credit cards on the net and 30 per cent said they would do likewise with their pensions.
Mark Reeves, head of the retail practice at TCA Consulting feels the results signify a healthy market for e-banking. "The benefits for banks of providing on-line financial services are great," he says. "Such offerings will enable them to increase efficiency and collect customer-centric data to provide individually tailored value-added service."
The improvements achieved through on-line services will help customer retention and the wider range of services available will increase the value of customers to the bank, claims TCA.
"However, banks still need to persuade more customers to use on-line services," says Reeves. Barely a quarter of the survey respondents believe that technology is more effective than bank staff in handling personal finances, suggesting a need for the personal touch.
Adds Reeves: "These results indicate that many customers still have certain reservations about online banking - particularly revolving around a lack of personal service and perceived gaps in security."
The survey's findings were based on interviews with 960 adults, carried out across the country during October.

IN THE ISH: Father Time
This article by Jutt Sulit appears in SLAM PH #201
Damian Lillard arrived in Manila, a completely different timezone, fifteen hours ahead of Portland where he plays, and Oakland, which he reps on his chest. Jutt Sulit was there, waiting and ready to welcome him to a land that is all ball, all day, all night. Upon landing however, it was Lillard who checked his clock and once again saw – as he does anywhere, regardless of the hour, of the place – it was Dame Time.
On December 16, 2012, in Portland, Oregon, Dame Time was born.
The tension was high inside the Rose Garden. The Portland Trail Blazers and the New Orleans Hornets were tied at 92 with 4.2 ticks left in the game.
With one last shot at a regulation win, Portland head coach Terry Stotts gave his 21-year-old rookie the biggest responsibility – the inbound.
The kid had a couple of options. He had Nic Batum cutting to the corner. He had Luke Babbit, a decent shooter, floating on the wing to receive the initial pass. But as fate would have it, the ball landed back in the hands of young Damian Lillard.
Lillard took one dribble towards his left, took a Babbit pick as he crossed over to his right, and launched a long bomb over the best defense that Ryan Anderson could throw at him.
Swish. Blazers win.
And there it was. Lillard's first NBA game-winner.
The birth of Dame Time.
Since then, Dame Time has been seen in and against cities all over the United States. Just ask Cleveland, Detroit, and above all, Houston. I guarantee you all of them still remember the sting of a Damian dagger.
Last June 13, it was our turn to experience Dame Time. Not in the form of a game-winner or a series-sealing three. But by being graced by the presence of the forefather himself – Damian Lillard.
Dame's stop in Manila was part of the adidas Take On Summer Tour 2016. The same tour that brought in Ricky Rubio last year.
adidas Philippines is always eager to bring in athletes who would have a strong connection with the Filipino fans. With Dame, that correlation is natural. It lies in his background, his beliefs and his climb to the top.
Like us Filipinos, Dame celebrates the struggle. He appreciates the grind. He understands that success is a product of daily hardships and equally, necessarily, daily hardwork.
That connected him to his legion of Filipino fans.
Before heading to the Araneta Coliseum, the former NBA Rookie of the Year spent time with some of Manila's young and upcoming hoopers. They hung out at the People Power monument along EDSA and celebrated a shared love for the game.
Creating history. @Dame_Lillard leads the basketball revolution. #DameTimeManila pic.twitter.com/q4dtWU5uEM
— adidas Philippines (@adidasph) June 14, 2016
"Hinamon kami ni Dame to show our skills," recalled Brgy. Ginebra rookie Scottie Thompson. "He wanted to see our handles so nag dribbling exhibition kami doon isa isa. Then after namin, siya naman."
At that moment, Dame wasn't a global basketball icon among aspirant Filipino players. He wasn't an NBA star among fans. They were all just ballers. No divide.
"Dame is a genuinely nice person," shared UP Fighting Maroons guard Diego Dario. "He never made us feel like we were strangers to him. He felt like a friend you've known for a long time."
From there, Lillard made his way to the mecca of Philippine basketball where thousands of followers awaited him.
Dame had already delivered wisdom to the guys he spent the afternoon with. Come evening, it was time to extend that message to his Filipino fans.
The lights dimmed inside The Big Dome and the LEDs lit up. Out came Dame. The place blew up. Everyone went crazy. It was a lot like the Moda Center everytime Dame would deliver a buzzer-beater.
Every soul in attendance was lucky to have seen Lillard in the flesh. But there were even luckier fans who had the privilege of experiencing Dame Time on higher level.
"We welcomed Dame with high fives like they do it in the NBA, when they call out starters," shared Gian Magno, a Lillard loyalist. "It was a check off of my bucket list."
Dame put on a show and competed in a three-point exhibition against PBA stars Josh Urbiztondo and Chris Tiu. Unfortunately for Lillard, Tiu got the better of him in this event.
On 🔥 @Dame_Lillard up against @chris_tiu in the Three Point Shooting challenge. #DameTimeManila pic.twitter.com/wwasPfr5js
— adidas Philippines (@adidasph) June 14, 2016
Dame got his revenge when the two coached against each other in an exhibition game that featured PBA and collegiate stars. Some standouts from the recently concluded adidas Uprising Summer Invitational were also thrown in the mix.
PBA players Justin Melton, Alex Mallari and Jericho Cruz bannered Dame's team. On the other side, Chris' squad featured Kevin Ferrer and Aljon Mariano.
Lillard's competitiveness spilled all over the game, and to think he didn't even touch the ball once; he didn't have to. He had no plans of losing. He kept calling out his guys for cruising and not taking the game seriously.
When he subbed Dario into the game, he told the young buck, "If no one wants to play, you gotta step up and take over."
And despite being on the opposite end, the guys on Tiu's team weren't spared from Dame's nuggets of wisdom.
Mariano will always remember what Dame personally told him. "If you want to look good in front of thousands, you have to outwork thousands in front of nobody."
You see, we're easily blinded by Dame's cold-bloodedness. By his ridiculous skill-set and his ability to take over in the clutch. We tend to think that Dame Time is a mode that he simply switches on when the need arises.
It's not. What he wants us to understand is that Dame Time is not the last 4.2 seconds of a tied game. It's not the final two minutes of a tightly contested playoff game.
Dame Time is actually the thousands of hours leading up to that moment when you need that big shot.
Dame Time is the when you put in the work, the sacrifices, the blood-sweat-tears supersize combo number 1 in order to find comfort in the uncomfortable.
And in that definition of Dame Time, it still means coming up big in the clutch because then it's not just a game on the line. It's a career. It's a life.
Damian Lillard ended his Manila tour in an unconventional way. He switched into Dame DOLLA, rap god, and performed. It wasn't #FourBarFriday on his Instagram account, but I think we've determined by now: Time is relative, and it bends and folds according to Lillard's command.
The performance reminded me of a verse from his very first song Solider In The Game.
"Experience in my life prepared me for the high life. All the times I struggled just prepared me for the highlights."
That is Dame DOLLA's rhyme. That is Damian Lillard's message. That time. All the time. To be all-time.

Nov 05, 2014
OCALA-- The College of Central Florida women's basketball team got off to a strong start in front of its home fans on Wednesday night in its regular season home opener.
The Patriots (3-0) never trailed and rolled to a 70-52 win over Indian River State.
CF led by as many as 13 in the first half, and after seeing the Pioneers close to within nine at halftime, started the final 20 minutes off with a 20-4 run and was never challenged the rest of the way.
"We had flashes of brilliance in there, but we're trying to get the complete picture," Patriots coach Tommy Jones said. "The runs show that we've got potential and we are tough to beat when we play together.
"I have high expectations for this group and I want them to continue to get better."
Thais Oliveira led the Patriots with 22 points, 16 rebounds and five blocks. The 6-foot-2 freshman from Brazil scored 14 points in the first half and also blocked four shots over the opening 20 minutes to get CF going.
"She's tough and really cleaned up for us," Jones said. "She's a special player."
De'Adjua Snelson added 12 points and five rebounds for the Patriots, while Quira Demery contributed nine points and six rebounds.
Marcella Rocha, a freshman point guard from Brazil, was tough defensively on Indian River, as she finished with seven steals and also added eight points and four rebounds. Meanwhile, Brittany Grant, the team's lone returning starter from last season at guard, pulled down six rebounds.
"This team is very unselfish and has passed well since day one," Jones said. "They really try to make plays. Right now, we've got to cut down on turnovers, but it is only the third game of the year and we'll get there. This group can be special."
CF jumped out to an early six-point lead, but saw the Pioneers (0-3) get to within 19-17 with 9:48 left in the first half.
From there, the Patriots responded with an 11-0 run and led by 13. Rocha forced three turnovers during the spurt for CF and also scored five points, including a 3-pointer.
Indian River, a state tournament team last season, got the margin down to 8, but was unable to get the contest back to a two-possession game before halftime.
For the half, CF forced 13 turnovers and limited IRSC to a 1-of-10 effort from beyond the 3-point line. Oliveira then got the Patriots going with six quick points during their 20-4 run, which turned the game into a rout.
On the night, Oliveira added six offensive rebounds and finished 9-of-19 from the floor. The Patriots also forced 28 turnovers and never let the Pioneers get closer than 20 points after the big run to start the second half.
CF's next home game will take place on November 14 against Miami Dade beginning at 6 p.m. The Patriots knocked off the Sharks by 14 points earlier this season in Gainesville, Fla. The following night will see CF host St. Petersburg College at 6 p.m. The Patriots split a pair of games last season with the Titans, a state tournament team from a year ago, who finished as state semifinalists after a loss to Northwest Florida State.

Interesting in terms of the skills that will be needed by our kids.
Digital Communication Students's curator insight, December 4, 2015 7:00 AM
"The nature of writing has changed tremendously over those two decades due to the significant influence of digital tools and sources". We completely agree with this phrase. Our way of writing is changing more than we notice. I figure that adults notice this more than young people, because this last group were born with the Internet. Nevertheless, its very important to learn how to write properly, this article provides the tools and the practice we need.

Akili Nzuri's curator insight, July 24, 2016 3:06 PM
I chose this one because it is important for me to understand how the writing process has become digital, considering how my students learn it through the computer.
Jedd Bartlett's comment, July 6, 2015 5:32 PM
This has been clear since late last century - the power of technology to shift control of learning to the learner - and thus lead to transformation in learning systems. The point here I guess is that limited access to technology need not limit this power to transform.
flea palmer's curator insight, June 2, 2015 6:47 AM
This looks like it's going to be a fantastic resource as the intention is to add clips on a range of subjects - there are already many great clips around physics. You can register to receive updates.

"The first rule is so important, it's RULE 0.… The new thing is never as good as the old thing, at least right now. Soon, the new thing will be better than the old thing will be." Seth Godwin
Raquel Oliveira's curator insight, February 6, 2015 2:19 PM
gosto da premissa que tecnologia não endereça/resolve necessidades emocionais, básicas na pirâmide aqui ilustrada.
A hierarquia tecnológica de segurança, sociabilização, cognição, estética, etc é um excelente passo a passo para utilização da tecnologia como ferramenta de aprendizagem.
Ivon Prefontaine, PhD's curator insight, March 2, 2015 7:19 PM
This is a project which is ongoing. Maslow, like others i.e. Ellul, had reservations about computers, but his work is important in their uses.
Nik Peachey's curator insight, August 15, 2014 8:10 AM
Still not sure I agree with these conclusions.
Elizabeth Dalton's curator insight, August 16, 2014 7:58 AM
Interesting research - but we need to be careful about the conclusions that are drawn from it. Most important, in my view, is the point that while we do need to learn how to operate digital tools, we cannot assume that we should stop there - we also need to learn how and where they fit to support or facilitate learning. This article shows that information literacy is just as important as digital literacy - librarians have ALWAYS known this - and we need to pay attention to this point!
Yvonne Middelkoop's curator insight, July 21, 2014 2:17 AM
Who are the curators, what motivates them and what makes a great curator?

Nice essay about curation. A useful example of using storify
Ness Crouch's curator insight, April 4, 2015 10:13 PM

Melissa Marshall's comment, September 3, 2013 7:47 PM
yikes, a scary thought. I'm finding that it is partnership with parents that is making the most difference in our school community re: DL education.
John Williams's comment, September 4, 2013 3:57 PM
Bonnie I agree parents are important today so many seem to be tuned out to the needs of there children, it is a lot more than just material needs, that parents need to provide, and with the prevalence of single parent homes, it is even harder. I feel as much for the parent of these homes as I do for the children it can not be easy wearing all the hats.
Nik Peachey's curator insight, July 2, 2015 3:45 AM
Really useful reading for anyone working with students in Latin America.
Corrina Phoenix Miss English's curator insight, April 29, 2015 1:40 PM
Hopefully, this will be very useful in academic writing.

Beaucoup de bon sens et de choses connues. Néanmoins très utile à relire et intégrer...
Nik Peachey's curator insight, August 11, 2014 11:56 AM
This is an article I wrote some time ago. It looks at the limitations put on teacher creativity within the educational technology sphere and how to confront these.
harloff's curator insight, August 12, 2014 6:24 AM
A to the point analysis of why we need a punk attitude to educational institutions. They slow down adoption of new technology in education
Ivon Prefontaine, PhD's curator insight, August 13, 2014 4:39 PM
It is interesting that we think there are no economic interests at play in the e-learning world. There are and they are significant. It does not mean we don't use various digital technologies, but let us make sure we ask questions and challenge their usages when needed.
Julia Echeverría's curator insight, July 5, 2014 5:24 AM

Unas interesantes apreciaciones, las de este post, sobre los motivos que pueden provocar distracciones en los alumnos mientras éstos trabajan con herramientas digitales. El nivel de dificultad (si es demasiado bajo) podría ser un factor.

Liste des compétences:
Demonstrate the ability to interpret, recognize, appreciate, and understand information presented through visible actions, objects and symbols, natural or man-made
Peter Evans's curator insight, November 26, 2013 8:47 AM
I'd suggest a lot of the more innovative university programmes are already doing much of what is suggested here. One thing to emphasise is supporting students to use digital tools specifically for learning as they generally already know how to use these tools. In otherwords, while students may often be digitally competent, they are often less digitally literate in terms of learning processes. Also, what refer to PDAs - surely old tech?
Miep Carstensen's curator insight, December 1, 2013 11:14 PM
Sound advice for teachers to incorprate these core competencies in their teaching programmes.

Blog Challenge from Doglady13
Wednesday, October 30, 2013
"When I signed up for the Strength Training and Endurance class at the Y, we got a list of reflective questions. I thought they were good questions. I've written about some of these things before, as have many of you, but it's good to revisit these themes. Our perspective changes as we make changes. We have new insights to ourselves. I decided to take the questions, modify some where appropriate to make them more universal, and share them with you.
I invite you to join me in a 3 Week Blog -A-Day Challenge. I am starting tomorrow, October 31. That will get me to the week before Thanksgiving (for us in the U.S.) and the beginning of the holiday madness. The start date is arbitrary and I hope others will join in no matter what the date is on the calendar. I hope putting in the effort, will pay off by helping me maintain my healthy life choices.
Feel free to share this. If you participate, please comment and support others who accept the 3 Week Blog-A-Day Challenge. If you are "in", please let us know in the comments section, so we can read and comment on each other's blogs.
Answer one question each day:
1. Have you set a new short- or medium-term goal or challenge recently? Do you have a goal or challenge that you have been working on for a while? What is it? What do you hope to gain from it?
2. Imagine you have met your new short- or medium-term goal or challenge. What would you like to say happened for you while you were working toward that goal?
3. What is your big picture, long-term goal? Why is this goal the one you work towards?
4. What motivates you to stay committed to a healthy lifestyle?
5. What demotivates you and takes you off your fitness and health goals?
6. What is your favorite physical activity overall? at the gym? Explain.
7. What is your least favorite physical activity overall? at the gym? Explain.
8. Have you ever worked with a physical trainer? One on one? Small group? What skills or talents did the trainer have that helped you? What didn't help?
9. What supports do you need in your life to help you reach your short- or medium-term goal or challenge? Do you have those supports? What undermines you in reaching your goals? How do you use those supports to your advantage? How do you work around those things that undermine you?
10. What are the ways in which you are "slippery" and might cheat yourself in your efforts to reach your short- or medium-term goal or challenge?
11. How often do you participate in physical activity and for how long each time? Are you satisfied with that?
12. True or false: I like to be pushed. Elaborate.
13. True of false: I need to be pushed. Elaborate.
14. True or false: I like the way I look. Elaborate.
15. True or false: I feel good about myself. Elaborate.
16. If I could change one thing about myself, it would be _______. How and why would you make that change?
17. One word that best describes me. Elaborate.
18. One word that least describes me. Elaborate.
19. Think of the person who loves you the most. How would they describe you?
20. What simple step can you take to make yourself happier today?
21. This is a long one. You just spent three weeks reflecting on yourself and your journey to a healthy lifestyle. Write yourself a heartfelt, loving intention to help you reach your goal.
An example is, "I intend to show up for myself everyday, in every way to support my physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. I will continue to be a healthy, vivacious person. I will take responsibility for anything and everything that enters my mind, body and soul. I will honor myself."
Write your own intention, but you can also use prayers, essays or motivational phrases from elsewhere. Whatever you write or "borrow" should resonate deeply and be helpful to you as a source of strength and motivation.'
I intend to do this challenge. Anybody else up for it?

I took a look at my calendar and realized...holy cow..we are moving not this weekend, but next. We have not packed a single thing nor found a storage unit. I am wondering when it will actually happen. It seems like every night of the week is filled with something to do, and yet I keep adding to it. I think I am addicted to being busy. You would have thought that after doing the Martha and Mary bible study I would have learned to slow down and get more balance in my life. I am always afraid of missing out on something. Knowing that I have to pack this weekend, I have already planned a football game, a fishing trip, and a night out with friends. Now tell me, how I am going to get anything done? I just hope it all comes together and I stop stressing out and adding to my stress. Evan is always telling me that there is nothing that should stress me out because stress is not from God. I know that..but man it is hard! Tonight the packing begins....I hope we are actually diligent in it and I feel somewhat accomplished.

And While We're on the Subject...
As everyone battles through the scrums of American menswear, I recently had the opportunity to get my hands on The Hill-Side's Black Watch Plaid-Coated Tie, which brings new meaning to process and unprecedented utilitarianism with a dash of - you guessed it - waxed and oil-treated canvas. What truly separates this tie is not just the material and feel but the importance of process, fabrication and individualism. Additional touches, like the understated hand-stamped packaging, provide a better understanding of your product and its history. The Black Watch tie (the one I purchased and pictured) is stamped as follows: N55-005. N = non-selvedge; 55 = 55 inches long; and 005 = the fifth non-selvedge tie they've made since inception. While you're not contractually obligated to explain the process of your neckwear, I highly recommend brushing up on your "It's made in New York" delivery.
[Thank you All Plaid Out for images]

Wax Poetic
After spending the last five days in New York, I must admit it's hard to get past the trends that are relentlessly littering the city: neo-Americana, filiment bulbs, taxidermy, mustaches, tight rolls, speakeasies, and the reclamation of just about everything. While I could spill my guts on all these for hours, there's one element that has my attention more than any other...wax. From the limited-edition Le Labo candles at the Ace Hotel to wax-coated Fjallraven packs at Opening Ceremony to the timeless Belstaff jackets that have now seemingly replaced the tattered leather biker jackets of the downtown set, wax has snuck back onto the radar with a functional sensibility perfect for a time when pure form alone has been pushed into the closet. Truthfully, this all could've resulted from my walking around jacket-less in the rain and thinking how nice it would've been to have something to repel all the misery. However, all precipitation aside, here are a few images of some favorites that - rain or shine - would make any day better.

Back in the New York Groove
I recently stumbled across this amazing image of Mick looking strangely collected (if not jealous of the party in back), and thought how appropriate such an image was for my upcoming trip back to New York. Ah, the days when flying meant class, taste, splashes of well-suited style and the occasional cigarette while sipping whiskey in the back of the cabin. Nonetheless, if anyone should have recommendations on new places to check out while I'm in the city, please feel free to advise. Until then, I'll let Ace take us home...

"Splitting the Atom"
Being that it's a Sunday, might I recommend you take 5 minutes and watch this breathtaking video for Massive Attack's latest single. I promise you will not regret it so long as you promise to watch it on the biggest screen possible. Kind of cancels out their making us wait seven years for another magnificent album.
Friday, April 16, 2010
Rumor has it the latest issue of Apartmento (#5) will premier in Milan at this week's Salone - and yes, I'm excited. With this in mind, I thought I'd drop a little wax on why this magazine is so damn cool. If you have yet to read this burgoening design magazine, well, you're truly missing out. While visits to homes like that of Thurston Moore and Kim Gorden make for exceptional entertainment and visuals (see issue #4 pictured below), it's the complete lack of pomp and polish that makes Apartmento a worthy read - and addition to your coffee table. Launched in 2008, the magazine itself is published out of both Barcelona and Spain, with the three young founders - Nacho Alegre, Omar Sosa and Marco Velardi - all creating and tweaking the content (mostly) via Skype and e-mail. Combine all this with an approachable compact format that perfectly balances everyday interior aesthestics with youthful punches of amusement, inspiration and mischief and you get one bad-ass interiors magazine. If you still don't get it, just have a look at the photos below and think about what they once asked an Argentine photographer: "You're 40 years old. Does it bother you living with your mum?". Get it here.

But how well can it handle stairs?
Google officially reveals its latest robot. (Newer report and Video here)
Google robot revealed: Boston Dynamics' 'Handle' has wheels for feet - Feb. 28, 2017
The Google-owned robotics company officially unveiled its latest robot, Handle, in a YouTube video posted Wednesday that immediately captivated the Internet. Handle, which stands 6-foot-6, looks vaguely human with a torso, arms and legs that have wheels instead of feet.
Boston Dynamics described the combination of legs and wheels as the best of both worlds. The wheels make Handle energy efficient on flat surfaces. (It has a 15-mile range on one charge.) With legs it's able to manage uneven terrain, and go nearly anywhere.

Handle shows an unusual amount of grace for a hulking robot. In the video Handle rolls down steps, jumps over barriers and onto tables. It boasts a vertical leap of 48 inches, which compares favorably to great human athletes like the winners of the NBA's dunk contest.
The Terminator are here almost as well. And that movie karate kid sucked.

These will make great wheelchairs for people.
Really here, make it a frame that can fit on their legs. People could like stand up and move around...Cool it be.

They'll never let them be "autonomous" (talking "robot cops" or even "robot soldiers").....from ED-209 to the Terminators...
the public will NEVER accept autonomous robots who are armed.

The television presenter has been discussing Spurs and the Gunners.
Richard Keys believes finishing above Arsenal would no longer do for Tottenham Hotspur, according to his personal blog.
Indeed, the north London side currently sit above their bitter rivals in the Premier League and are only two points off top.
And Keys wrote: "Spurs' season deserves some kind of reward as well. They've been terrific. A C Lge place and finishing above Arsenal - would that do? Of course not, they're serious contenders as well but I'd love to see Leicester win it."
Such has been Arsenal's meltdown during key moments this season, Tottenham no longer need to compare themselves to Arsene Wenger's men.
Spurs are three points clear of the Gunners and could remain ahead of them even if they pick up a couple of bad results this week.
There is no better time for Tottenham to host Arsenal, meanwhile, who have looked so fragile mentally this campaign it's a wonder they're still in the top four.
Arsenal have still managed to dig out higher finishes than Tottenham every year - even during some of their lowest situations. But this term is certainly the biggest chance of the tables turning.
