We have a dear lady at our church whom I have really come to appreciate. For sake of privacy, we'll call her Mrs. R. She has seven children and still teaches the younger five, which range in age from 11-17, at home. She gives me hope that I can not only learn to survive life as a homeschool mom but also thrive. A month and a half ago she shared a devotional at our ladies mission society meeting and it really blessed my heart so I asked if I could share it with you. She agreed, so here it is. I hope you are blessed as much as I was.
"A.P.P.L.Y. our Hearts unto Wisdom"
Written by Mrs. R.
Our theme this year is "Apply our Hearts Unto Wisdom" drawn from Psalm 90 vs 12 and 17, with the emphasis on verse 12 today. "So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."
Looking briefly at some thoughts on Psalm 90 written by men of God from the past: It is a Psalm written by Moses.
Title. A prayer of Moses. Moses was an old and much tried man, but age and experience had taught him that, amidst the perpetual changes which are taking place in the universe, one thing at least remains immutable, even the faithfulness of him who is "from everlasting to everlasting God." How far back into the past may the patriarch have been looking when he spake these words? The burning bush, the fiery furnace of Egypt, the Red Sea, Pharaoh with his chariots of war, and the weary march of Israel through the wilderness, were all before him; and in all of them he had experienced that "God is the Rock, his work perfect, all his ways judgment" (De 32:4). But Moses was looking beyond these scenes of his personal history when he said, "Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations." (De 32:7), and we may be sure that he was also looking beyond them when he indited the song, Thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Yes; he was casting in his mind how God had been the refuge of Jacob and Isaac, of Abraham, Noah, and all the patriarchs. Moses could take a retrospect of above a thousand years, which had all confirmed the truth. I can do no more. At this point of time I can look back to the days of Moses and Joshua and David, and descending thence to the days of the Son of God upon earth, and of Paul and Peter, and all the saints of the Church down to the present hour; and what a thousand years avouched to Moses, three thousand now avouch to me: the Lord is the dwelling place of those that trust in him from generation to generation. Yes; and to him who was the refuge of a Moses and an Abraham, I too in the day of trouble can lift my hands. Delightful thought! That great Being who, during the lapse of three thousand years, amidst the countless changes of the universe, has to this day remained unchanged, is MY God.—Augustus F. Theluck, in "Hours of Christian Devotion", 1870.
Looking especially at verse 12,
Verse 12: So teach us to number our days. Instruct us to set store by time, mourning for that time past wherein we have wrought the will of the flesh, using diligently the time present, which is the accepted hour and the day of salvation, and reckoning the time which lieth in the future to be too uncertain to allow us safely to delay any gracious work or prayer. Numeration is a child's exercise in arithmetic, but in order to number their days aright the best of men need the Lord's teaching. We are more anxious to count the stars than our days, and yet the latter is by far more practical. That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Men are led by reflections upon the brevity of time to give their earnest attention to eternal things; they become humble as they look into the grave which is so soon to be their bed, their passions cool in the presence of mortality, and they yield themselves up to the dictates of unerring wisdom; but this is only the case when the Lord himself is the teacher; he alone can teach to real and lasting profit. Thus Moses prayed that the dispensations of justice might be sanctified in mercy. "The law is our school master to bring us to Christ", when the Lord himself speaks by the law. It is most meet that the heart which will so soon cease to beat should while it moves be regulated by wisdom's hand. A short life should be wisely spent. We have not enough time at our disposal to justify us in misspending a single quarter of an hour. Neither are we sure of enough life to justify us in procrastinating for a moment. If we were wise in heart we should see this, but mere head wisdom will not guide us aright.
Verse 12, from Hints to the Village Preacher
1. The Reckoning. (a) What their usual number. (b) How many of them are already spent. (c) How uncertain the number that remains. (d) How much of them must be occupied with the necessary duties of this life. (e) What afflictions and helplessness may attend them.
2. The use to be made of it. (a) To "seek wisdom"—not riches, worldly honours, or pleasures—but wisdom; not the wisdom of the world, but of God. (b) To "apply the heart" to it. Not mental merely, but moral wisdom; not speculative merely, but experimental; not theoretical merely, but practical. (c) To seek it at once—immediately. (d) To seek it constantly—"apply our hearts", etc.
3. The help to be sought in it. "So teach us", etc. (a) Our own ability is insufficient through the perversion both of the mind and heart by sin. (b) Divine help may be obtained. "If any man lack wisdom." etc.—G.R.
And finally from the Plain Commentary
Verse 12. To number our days. Number we our days by our daily prayers—number we them by our daily obedience and daily acts of love—
When the Bible says we need teaching…that means we need to LEARN. I believe that the Bible instructs to our weaknesses so if there is a command to "DO" it is because we are very prone to "NOT DO".
In this Psalm we are asked to learn to number our days so that we can apply our hearts to wisdom. I am a mom of 7 and have been homeschooling for 16 years. I thought at the time I would be schooling forever but now with 2 graduates, 3 high schoolers, and 2 middle schoolers time actually seems short. Time flys and as Christian Ladies we need to number our days so that we can serve God in whatever capacity he has us.
Applying our hearts to wisdom -
Our Hearts are the center of our mind, emotions and will. Martha Peace in the Excellent Wife used this illustration. I like it because it reminds me to acknowledge all three parts of my heart but also to keep them in balance so the heart is wise. Sin in any of these areas divorces the heart from wisdom.
Here is an acrostic that I came up with with help with the concept:
Attitude: How I feel and respond (Mind and emotion)
"This is a day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it." It is a act of the will that rules my emotions. I have a choice when things are good or bad. I can choose contentment, I can bring my thoughts and emotions captive to Christ, or I can act in pride, selfishness, fear, and anger. Its my choice.
Perspective: My view of the situation (Mind)
" All things work together for good to them that Love God…." Do I believe that? Does my view of the situation show that I believe that. When Jesus healed the man with the whithered hand he asked him to stretch it out. He was asking him to do something impossible that He then enabled him to do and healed him. One thing to ask God to do is to reveal any blind spots in my perspective…..they are not blind spots because I can see them!
Perseverance: An act of the will in which I choose to keep going
We are to press for the Mark of our High Calling in Christ Jesus. One of my favorite passages in the Old Testament is when God tells Moses that he put them through the wilderness for all those years to test them to see if they would obey and walk in the way God wanted them to. Sometimes we just need to do the next thing….
Love: The Greatest of these is Love
Love is an emotion but it is also an act of the will! Read I Corinthians 13….memorize it, meditate on it…LIVE IT purposely with vigor!
Yield: Giving it all to God
Applying our hearts to wisdom takes the yielding of all things to God. Our Mind, our wills and our emotions. I cannot yield to God if I don't know him. I need to get into the Word and see what it says to me. The Bible tells me that the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord. We know the way, we need to choose to walk in it.

I heard or read about Zentangle as a way to practice mindfulness and that it could help with improving free motion quilting skills. After I did some research on the internet, I found I could purchase a beginning Zentangle kit on-line. However, when I discovered Suzzie's Quilt Shop offered a beginning Zentangle class, I decided to sign up for a class instead – and that was a great decision! The class was fantastic. I learned about the Zentangle process, including some history and the simplicity of Zentangle. Marisela is a wonderful instructor. Not only was her presentation warm and friendly, but she was good at communicating what to do and why to do it. She is clearly an experienced teacher and the personal touches she added to the class are things I couldn't have gotten from a kit. Most of all, her passion for Zentangle is contagious -- I am hooked! I learned so much and was thrilled with the Zentangle tiles I created. I highly recommend taking a class from Marisela!

This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
I don't know where to start, I've learnt so much! I started this course with no idea how to teach students a foreign language and I feel that I have gained the tools that will give me the confidence to go out there and teach english to those who want to learn. The grammar was a wake up call as to how little I actually know about my own language. I feel that I have learnt how to teach the grammar skills that come naturally to me, as a native english speaker, as I have an understanding of how they function. I have been given the tools to form well planned and balanced lessons that I will use to keep the students interested and learning effectively. The course has given me so many innovative activity ideas that have inspired me to come up with my own. I plan to adapt these activities to my individual classes. I have learnt how to make up worksheets and tests which I will be using throughout my teaching career. An invaluable tool that I have gained will be the ability to choose material and teaching aids that will be relevant to the individual classes according to their language level and interests. I have been able to view
examples of good and bad lessons and will use this experience as a reference for my own lessons. I have learnt how to conduct myself with different learners and will put this to use when teaching students of different ages and language levels. Overall I feel that the course has prepared me on all aspects of teaching english as a foreign language and I am very excited to get started.

Burqa ban aims to whip up Islamophobia
By Linda Waldron
Hundreds of Muslim women and children rallied in Punchbowl, Sydney, on September 19 to protest a burqa ban soon to be debated in the NSW parliament. The bill, introduced by Christian fundamentalist MLC Fred Nile, criminalises wearing a "face covering while in a public place" except as part of a job, entertainment, recreation or sport. It states that "a religious or cultural belief does not constitute a reasonable excuse for the wearing of a face covering", thus exposing the aim of criminalising the wearing of the burqa or niqab by Muslim women.
Modiied Fred Nile election billboard - telling it as it is.
In May ALP and Coalition MPs joined minor parties to vote down the bill, but then supported its reintroduction in June, when only the four Greens and Family First MP Gordon Moyes voted against.
On August 23, NSW Premier Kristina Keneally announced that the state government had decided to oppose the bill, because "such a ban has no place in multicultural NSW". The rout the ALP experienced in NSW and Queensland in the federal election only two days earlier undoubtedly motivated the ALP's new multicultural rhetoric. On September 10, NSW opposition leader Barry O'Farrell announced the Coalition would also oppose the bill.
European bans
While the electoral concerns of the major parties prevent them supporting the bill, the global scapegoating of Islam ensures that the issue will return. Across western Europe, politicians are debating banning the burqa, citing security, women's rights and secularism in justification. The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and some Italian states are debating or legislating against the burqa. In mid-June Spain's ruling Socialist Party introduced a new "religious freedom" bill that bans the burqa in public places. The bill does not prohibit the wearing of religious veils such as the traditional Spanish mantilla, so its anti-Islamic motivation is clear.
With Europe's largest Muslim population and second largest economy, France's ban constitutes a powerful attack against Muslims. In mid-July France's lower house voted 335 to 1 for the bill, and it passed through the Senate on September 15. The bill was instigated in June 2009, when 65 cross-party MPs, led by Communist Andre Guerin, called for a parliamentary commission into the spread of the burqa among French women. President Nicolas Sarkozy supported the call, saying, "We cannot accept, in our country, women imprisoned behind a mesh, cut off from society, deprived of all identity. That is not the French republic's idea of women's dignity."
Both the French Muslim establishment and the left endorsed the ban. In 2009 human rights minister Rama Yade, who is a Muslim, said that she would support a ban if it protected women's rights. Dalil Boubakeur, rector of the Paris Mosque and former head of the French Council of the Muslim Faith, welcomed the ban because French Muslims need to practise an "open and convivial Islam that allows people to live side by side". The current head, Mohammed Moussaoui, while raising concerns about laws stigmatising vulnerable groups, also supports discouraging women from wearing the full veil. Some Socialist and Communist MPs abstained, but their refusal to vote against ensured the ban's passage through parliament. Socialist lawmaker Francois de Rugy warned that if judges overturned the law, it would be a "priceless gift to the fundamentalists we all oppose".
Forced assimilation
While the French parliament used the pretext of women's rights to pass the bill, its true motivation was to force the assimilation of a religious minority. National Assembly and ruling Union for Popular Movement member Jacques Myard made this very clear on the SBS Insight program on September 21: "... behind the veil you have also many other problems, like do the lady want to shake hands with men? Do they want ... separate swimming pool? Do they want to go to mixed schools? Do they want to eat next to somebody who is eating pork? This is the principle which is at stake — what kind of society do we want?"
The burqa ban is the most high profile of a series of racist measures against France's immigrant underclass. On July 30 Sarkozy proposed stripping foreign-born citizens of their citizenship if they are convicted of "threatening the life of a police officer or other serious crimes". In 2009 the government deported 10,000 Roma to Romania and Bulgaria, and it has recently escalated the deportations. EU justice commissioner Viviane Reding on September 16 branded French policies towards the Roma people as reminiscent of Nazi-era deportations. In 2004, the parliament banned the wearing of religious symbols in government schools, which while ostensibly applying equally to Christians, Jews and Sikhs, actually targeted Muslim women who chose to wear head scarves. The following year civil unrest in impoverished predominantly Muslim African immigrant communities sparked a three-month state of emergency. Then minister of the interior Sarkozy was accused of inciting the riots by referring to poor youth in Parisian suburbs as "thugs" and "rabble". In 2002, under a new Anglo-French agreement, Sarkozy, as minister of the interior, closed the Sangatte Red Cross refugee centre near Calais to prevent cross-Channel movement of asylum seekers.
Britain, which has the second largest European Muslim population, looks unlikely to follow the continental trend. Conservative MP Philip Hollobone has tabled a French-style bill but has received little support from either the ruling Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition or the Labour Party. In July immigration minister Damian Greene told the Sunday Telegraph, "Telling people what they can and can't wear, if they are just walking down the street, is a rather un-British thing to do". Unlike France, whose Muslim population come from former African colonies, Britain's Muslim population mostly comes from Pakistan, Afghanistan and the Arabian Peninsula, where the burqa and niqab have a long cultural tradition.
'Security' furphy
In Australia banning the burqa is being argued on security grounds. Nile's bill prohibits the wearing of a face covering that "conceals the identity of the person". In May, Liberal Senator Corey Bernardi called for a ban after a burqa was used for disguise during a Sydney armed robbery.
Yet security is a furphy. Muslim women already remove face coverings for identification purposes at airports and at the request of police. In May then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd stated that no law enforcement agency had advised him that the burqa was a security threat. According to Insight presenter Jenny Brockie, the Australian Bankers Association prohibits the wearing of motorcycle helmets in banks, not for identification, but because wearers are more difficult for police to overpower if they commit a crime.
The argument about security is a device to obscure underlying racist and sexist prejudices. In May Liberal leader Tony Abbott said he understood Bernardi's position: "I think a lot of Australians find the wearing of the burqa pretty confronting but it's not the subject of Coalition policy and I don't intend that it's going to be". Julia Gillard agreed: "I can understand Australians that do find it a bit confronting, it's a little different on our streets." In August, Ameer Ali, Murdoch University economics lecturer and vice-president of the Regional Islamic Council of South-East Asia and the Pacific, called for a burqa ban because the burqa and niqab are "the lingering relics of a patriarchal, misogynistic and tribal culture". In June 2009 prominent journalist and feminist Virginia Haussegger published an opinion piece in the Canberra Times calling for a ban, because the niqab and burqa are "tools of patriarchy used to subjugate women" and "an aggressive way of saying I will not integrate into your society, and I care nothing for the cultural mores and social traditions of this country".
No defenders of the ban value the right of a small minority of Australian women to practise their religion as they see fit and wear what they choose. "Feminist" arguments to ban the burqa are a veneer for restricting the dress and lifestyle choices of Muslim women. Proponents are committing the same sexist offences of which they accuse male relatives of burqa-wearing women. Legislating against the spiritual choices of Muslim women makes them targets for physical attack, verbal abuse and state-sanctioned persecution. The ban is not about women's liberation but about using a "confronting" image to confuse and divide leftists and feminists, manipulate public opinion about Islamic communities and whip up racist hysteria.

"boasting an impressive cast and memorable soundtrack and set pieces, Beauty And The Beast makes for a solid family film that'll become a firm Christmas favourite in years to come"
Beauty And The Beast is a Disney live-action remake of it's beloved original 1991 acclaimed animated outing of the same name. It's based on a French fairytale titled La Belle et la Bête (Beauty and the Beast), written originally by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve with publication in 1740. This was later abridged and rewritten by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont and published in 1756, becoming the more commonly known version of the fairytale.
The film tells the story of an arrogant Prince (Dan Stevens) who is transformed into hideous creature for his opulent and selfish ways, when he refuses to help an enchantress disguised as an old beggar, who offers him a rose in exchange for shelter in his castle from the bitter cold weather outside. The Prince now a Beast, must dwell within his cursed castle and kingdom until he finds true love and breaks away from his bonds of arrogance. The Beast has until the last petal falls from the enchanted rose given to him by the enchantress to learn to love and receive love from someone who is able to look beyond his monstrous appearance and see his inner beauty and humanity. If he fails to break the spell he will remain a Beast forever, and so will his castle and all who reside within its walls.
Emma Watson plays Belle, a non-conformist village girl who has a love of reading books and dreams of adventures beyond her village where she is misunderstood and ridiculed, she is supported by loving father Maurice (Kevin Kline), so her existence in the village isn't all bad.
To her dismay, she is pursued by the amorous advances of Gaston (Luke Evans), a vain and arrogant former soldier, now a hunter, Gaston is admired by the town's folk and desired by the women as a worthy suitor. However he has stated his love for Belle and that he wishes to marry her, but Belle offers no reciprocation and keeps turning down his advances. Gaston together with his trusted sidekick LeFou (Josh Gad) has decided that nothing will stand in his way in his pursuit to marry Belle.
Riding out of the village on his horse Phillipe, Maurice as always promises to bring his daughter Belle back a rose (since that is all she desires from his travels. On his journey back Maurice gets lost in the night woods and pursed by a pack of wolves before escaping and stumbling upon a hidden castle. Here he seeks shelter and help, but is frightened off. Leaving the castle grounds Maurice attempts to take a rose for Belle, but is confronted by the Beast and locked away for the "crime", leaving Phillipe to gallop back to the village.
Belle realising something is wrong and that Phillipe would not return without his master mounts the horse in pursuit of what's happened to her doting father. Arriving at the mysterious castle Belle searches for her father only to find him imprisoned and telling her to leave immediately for her own safety. In the shadows surrounding her father's cell the voice of the Beast cries out tell Belle her father is being held prisoner for stealing a rose. Upon being confronted by the creature as he exits the shadow she pleads with the unsympathetic Beast to let her father go. The Beast commands that someone must be held accountable for the theft. So under pretext of giving her father one last hug she steps into the cell, gives him a loving hug and against his wishes pushes her father out of the cell becoming the Beast's prisoner.
Maurice then returns to the village seeking help in rescuing his daughter. Meanwhile Belle is left contemplating in her cell what has just transpired when she is let out by Lumière (Ewan McGregor) a talking candelabra and Cogsworth (Ian McKellen) a talking mantel clock both of whom were transformed under the curse. Lumière formerly a butler and Cogsworth a chamberlain. Belle is shocked and delighted to discover other household guests and servants who are also now transformed. They encourage her to speak and dine with the Beast explaining how he is not what he seems to be.
Beauty And The Beast truly feels like the animated classic brought to life at times; and it is, it is essentially beat for beat, which isn't a bad thing, we know the story and that iss what they are giving us. The genius thing that Disney are doing with their classics, is to bring them to the attention of the new generation that haven't grown up with the animated classics.
The sets and animation almost overshadow the cast, and the film retains the songs from the original and follows the original plot and with the new songs thrown in, and Emma Watson, well add singer to the list of things that this young talent is capable of, she's incredible!
However, the film does feel a little too long coming in at an 129 minutes. The Beast as played by Dan Stevens is admirable but seems to have more character and depth as the Beast than as the Prince, admittedly we don't spend a huge chunk of time with the Prince, he isn't even mentioned by name, although we do know it is Prince Adam. Emma Watson is watchable as Belle, however you do feel like sometimes you're watching Emma Watson with it seeming at times that Belle is a part she has yet to completely grow in to. The rest of the ensemble cast bring enough to their respective characters to keep the entertainment following at a solid pace.
Overall, boasting an impressive cast and memorable soundtrack and set pieces, Beauty And The Beast makes for a solid family film that'll become a firm Christmas favourite in years to come.

Scout Analytics said it introduced the new division because media revenue has shifted from the distribution of media to the consumption of media, which means publishers need to focus more on deriving revenue by monetizing events and subscriptions, for example, to highly engaged users. "Our initial research shows that digital revenues are under the most pressure from the unrecoverable loss in ad inventory and not because of online ad prices," Matt Shanahan, senior VP-strategy at Scout Analytics, said in a statement. "New methods for analyzing an audience will help publishers avoid guessing and enable them to find monetizable opportunities faster."

Hey Guys, I just wanted to share with you all that I've started doing BSF. BSF for all of you that don't know is Bible Study Fellowship. As a kid, I did this for many years in the school program, and now in my 20's I've decided to go back into the adult program and continue to study. It's a study that is in around 30 countries worldwide, and it is a christian bible based study that is Non-denominational. They have a women's program, men's program, young adult program and children's program. I have only been going the past two weeks, but I can already say that it enriches your life, and really has an impact.
Now, this is not exactly beauty related. But, I felt like I wanted to share this all with you this morning. From time to time you all know I like to share personal things on this blog as well. I used to write little scripture verses that impacted me that day on each of my blogs about beauty or style. So, I've decided to try to do that again.
Today I wanted to just share two verses that I will cling to today:
For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.
Luke 8: 17
John 16:33
I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will havetribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."
Later today I will be back to talk about the monochromatic nail trend!

If you're like most teenagers, you want to be muscular, lean, and strong.
Maybe you want to look like those ripped guys and gals you see on social media, or maybe you just want to be better at sports.
And so you want to get serious about weightlifting, and for good reason–it's the best way to gain muscle and strength.
You might have some concerns, though.
Some people say that teenagers can't build any muscle to speak of until their bodies are more developed. Others say that it's dangerous and will possibly even stunt growth.
Well, I have good news:
Teenagers absolutely can lift weights safely and effectively.
Weightlifting isn't nearly as dangerous as many people think and doesn't stunt growth, and if you start young, you can enter your twenties with the type of body that most people can only dream of and be well on your way to long-term health, happiness, and well-being.
So, if you're ready to get a head start on building your best body ever, then keep reading…
Table of Contents
Contrary to what some people think, research shows that bodybuilding is one of the safest "sports" you can engage in.
Case in point:
In one review of 20 studies, scientists found that, on average, bodybuilding produced just one injury for every 1,000 hours of training.
To put that in perspective, if you spend 5 hours per week weightlifting, you could go almost four years without experiencing any kind of injury whatsoever.
Researchers also noted that most of the injuries tended to be minor aches and pains that didn't require any type of special treatment or recovery protocols. In most cases, rest with a bit of ice and heat wins the day.
For comparison, sports like ice hockey, football, soccer, and rugby have injury rates ranging from 6 to 260 per 1,000 hours, and long-distance runners can expect about 10 injuries per 1,000 hours of pavement pounding.
In other words, you're about 6 to 10 times more likely to get hurt playing everyday sports than hitting the gym for some heavy weightlifting.
That said, weightlifting can be quite unsafe when done improperly.
If you don't learn proper form on key exercises and take care to progress gradually, it's very easy to get hurt in the gym. If you do, though, your chances of injury are quite slim.
the fear that weightlifting will retard growth stems largely from research published in the 1970's on Japanese child laborers.
It was found that these kids, who often carried heavy loads, tended to be shorter than the norm, which gave rise to the theory that lifting heavy things when you're young might stunt growth.
This sounded plausible enough and spread like chain lightning, but it not only has no legitimate scientific evidence to back it up, it has actually been refuted by other research.
For example, a study conducted by scientists at German Sport University found that weightlifting had no effect on height, even when kids started as young as 6 years old. Similar findings were reported in an extensive review of research on elite young athletes conducted by French scientists.
Use this workout and flexible dieting program to lose up to 10 pounds of fat and build muscle in just 30 days…without starving yourself or living in the gym.
The single most common weightlifting mistake people make is using improper technique.
You know, stuff like…
These types of errors usually stem from simply not knowing what proper technique is or taking the time to learn it or being too aggressive with progression, add weight too soon and sacrificing form for load.
Don't make these mistakes.
Your first priority in your weightlifting journey should be learning proper technique on the big compound lifts like the squat, deadlift, bench press, and overhead press.
These are the exercises that are going to give you the most bang for your buck in the gym, and thus are the exercises that you want to improve the most on.
Then, once you know what good technique is, resist the urge to stray from it in hopes of faster progress. Remember that high-quality reps are not only safer than sloppy ones, they're more productive as well.
There's little debate that a high-protein diet is best for building muscle.
Protein provides your body with the raw materials necessary for creating muscle tissue, so if you don't eat enough, you'll always struggle to gain muscle.
What is "enough," though?
Well, it's quite a bit more than most people are used to eating, but not quite as much as some people claim.
Research shows that eating 0.8 to 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight per day is ideal for muscle gain.
If you're very overweight (25%+ body fat in men and 30%+ in women), then this can be reduced to around 1 gram of protein per pound of fat-free mass per day.
Either way, it usually comes out to around 30 to 40% of total daily calories from protein.
Now, while most people understand the importance of eating adequate protein, carbs are another story.
Low-carb diets are a "thing" these days, but they really don't deserve the hype because they don't help you lose fat faster, and they most definitely don't help you gain muscle faster, either.
To the contrary, eating a carbohydrate-rich diet has a couple of key muscle-building benefits.
High-carb diets also help you preserve muscle when you're cutting, which helps you reach your ideal body composition faster.
So, here's the bottom line:
If you want to gain muscle as quickly as possible, then you want to eat more and not less carbs.
A good starting place is getting 30 to 50% of your total daily calories from carbs.
Want to know more about how much protein and carbs you should eat? Check out this article.
Most young people get into weightlifting to look lean and jacked.
You know, like Zac Efron in Baywatch.
While learning how to control and optimize your body composition is a fantastic way to develop self control, personal mastery, and commitment, if you take it too far, it becomes physically and psychologically unhealthy.
You see, to get "shredded," you have to reduce your body fat levels to around 6 to 8% for men and 12 to 16% for women.
There are two problems here.
In other words, younger people just aren't supposed to be ripped in the way that adults are.
Here's the good news, though:
You don't need to get as big and lean as you might think to have a great physique.
If you're a young guy walking around with an additional 15 to 20 pounds of muscle at 10% body fat, your friends are going to think that you look like a Greek god. For girls, all it takes to have that killer bikini body (and booty) is an additional 5 to 10 pounds of muscle at 20% body fat.
Don't worry about getting leaner than that until your body is fully developed and done growing (20 years old and up for most people).
The exact foods that you eat have little impact on your body composition.
You can lose weight and gain muscle eating "unhealthy" food so long as your calories and macros are set up properly.
That's why food choices are given short shrift by many people in the "IIFYM" crowd, who understand the fundamentals of energy balance.
Well, just because you can eat a nutritionally bankrupt diet and be lean and muscular doesn't mean you should, especially when you're young.
There's a reason why people that eat higher amounts of fruits and vegetables are, on the whole, healthier and more likely to live longer, disease-free lives than those who don't eat enough.
Your body requires a lot more than calories, protein, carbohydrate, and fat to stay healthy and vital. It needs nourishment in the form of vitamins, minerals, and other micronutrients.
Moreover, the habits that you develop when you're young tend to bey very "sticky" as you get older, so if you develop good eating habits when you're young, Future You is going to find it much easier to eat well.
On the other hand, eat poorly as a teenager and Future You might have to deal with a whole host of physiological and even psychological health conditions that will make it very hard to be healthy and happy.
So use this opportunity wisely.
Learn how to prepare healthy, delicious meals, how to enjoy treats and sweets in moderation, and how to eat intuitively as opposed to weighing and tracking everything that you eat.
When you're young, it's easy to look at people who've been training for years and get discouraged.
It seems like everyone is bigger, leaner, and stronger than you, and it's hard to see yourself ever measuring up.
Then you hear about steroids and can't help but wonder how a cycle or two might accelerate your progress.
"They can't be that bad," you think. "I'm young, I'll probably be fine…"
Actually, you probably won't.
Steroids can cause severe and permanent problems in adults, and they're even more dangerous for teenagers.
For example, steroids are known to stunt growth in adolescents by retarding skeletal development.
Fortunately, you don't need steroids either as a teenager or adult to get the body that you really want. If you put in 3 to 5 years of high-quality work, you can gain a tremendous amount of muscle and strength.
Frankly, teens can skip supplements altogether and be just fine.
There are far too many young guys (and some women) who think that they have to choke down handfuls of pills and powders to get the body that they really want.
This simply isn't true.
Supplements don't build great physiques. Dedication to proper training and nutrition does.
Unfortunately, the supplement industry is plagued by pseudoscience, ridiculous hype, misleading advertising and endorsements, products full of junk ingredients, underdosing key ingredients, and many other shenanigans.
Most supplement companies produce cheap, junk products and try to dazzle you with ridiculous marketing claims, high-profile (and very expensive) endorsements, pseudo-scientific babble, fancy-sounding proprietary blends, and flashy packaging.
Worse still, in many cases, you really don't know what you're putting into your body.
For example, many supplement manufacturers use raw ingredients that contain high levels of heavy metals and other toxins, one company was spiking their pre-workout with an methamphetamine-like drug, and another was selling a fat burner that contained Prozac and chemicals that caused liver damage and even failure.
This is why doctors often recommend that teenagers avoid sports nutrition supplements altogether, and I agree. The potential benefits just aren't worth the risks.
That said, if you're dead set on adding supplements to your regimen, here's what you should know.
Research shows that inadequate sleep can slow weight loss, promote weight gain and muscle loss, and reduce testosterone levels.
The bottom line is that your sleep hygiene is like your diet—it's either working for you or against you.
Sleep poorly for too long, and the consequences can be dire. Sleep well, though, and the benefits can be surprisingly far-reaching.
When you give your body enough high-quality sleep, you'll perform better in the gym, and you'll gain muscle and lose fat faster. Oh, and you'll probably feel better throughout the day, learn faster, and live longer, too.
How much sleep do you really need, though?
Well, sleep needs vary from individual to individual, but according to the National Sleep Foundation, teenagers and young adults need 7 to 10 hours of sleep per night to avoid the negative effects of sleep deprivation.
If you're lifting weights regularly, you'll want to aim for the higher end of that range because research shows that getting 10 to 12 hours of sleep every night can significantly improve your physical performance and recovery.
Since many things like diet, exercise, genetics, and age ultimately affect how much sleep your body needs, a simple way to determine what's optimal for you is to pick a two-week period such as a vacation and go to bed at the same time each night without an alarm set.
Chances are you'll sleep longer than usual at first if you have "sleep debt" to cancel out, but toward the end of the second week, your body will establish a pattern of sleeping about the same amount every night.
When that happens, it's trying to tell you something: that's how much sleep it needs.
There's nothing wrong with lifting weights in your teens, but you have to be smart about it.
If you don't know what you're doing in the gym, it doesn't take much to screw your body up, and if you get too fanatical about your body image, you can set yourself up for serious problems down the road.
Follow the advice laid out in this article, though, and you'll have no trouble safely gaining muscle and strength while also developing a healthy relationship with food and optimizing your body composition.
To summarize, here's what you need to do:
If you want a "paint-by-numbers," step-by-step blueprint for building a muscular, lean, strong body...faster than you ever thought possible...then you want to check out my bestselling books.
Here's a little sneak peek of what you'll learn inside...
The bottom line is you CAN achieve that "Hollywood body" without having your life revolve around it. No long hours in the gym, no starving yourself, and no grueling cardio that turns your stomach.
My book will show you how. Get it today and let's build a body you can be proud of.

Syrian president Bashar Assad has invited President Obama to visit Damascus, in the wake of a U.S.-Saudi press for Syria to "demarcate" its border with Lebanon. By marking the Syrian border and giving up its claims to Shaba Farms, also known as Mount Dov, and placing Mount Dov inside Lebanon's borders, the reasoning is that Israel will have no rationale to claim the militarily strategic Mount Dov, and so Hizbullah will also have no reason to attack Israel. The move is on to neutralize Israel.
It's a fantasy – it's not going to happen.
For those who have forgotten, Israel liberated Mount Dov from Syria during the 1967 Six-Day War. Lebanon claims that Mount Dov belongs to it, and Hezbullah uses Israel's 'occupation' of Mount Dov as proof that Israel is 'occupying' 'Lebanese territory' thereby justifying its existence in Lebanon. The US claims that if Syria demarcates its border with Lebanon, and puts Mount Dov on the Lebanese side of the border, it will take away Hezbullah's raison d'etre (see map below).
It's a bit shocking to know that in 2009, there are countries without official borders.
Israel took over the area in 1967 and sees it as part of the Golan Heights. The UN accepted this position following the IDF's pullout from Lebanon in May 2000 but Hezbollah and Lebanon claim that this is Lebanese territory still under Israeli occupation.
From Israel's long-time point-of-view, Shaba Farms (Mount Dov) has been off the table for discussion.
In the 1923 Anglo-French Demarcation Agreement, which set the borders between the British and French mandates in Palestine, Syria and Lebanon, the area was included in Syria. The maps of the 1949 Israeli-Syrian Armistice Agreements similarly designated the area as Syrian.
In the 1967 Six Day War, the farms were occupied by the IDF as part of its conquest of the Golan Heights. Lebanon was not involved in that war, and Israel did not engage in any fighting against it.
At that time, no one – neither Syria nor Lebanon – claimed that the area was Lebanese.
IN THE negotiations leading to the Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon in 2000, Lebanon for the first time raised its claim to the farms, but based on all previous historical documents and maps, the UN sided with the Israeli version, i.e. that this was Syrian territory and subject to future Israeli-Syrian negotiations. The Lebanese claim was used by Hizbullah to continue its resistance to "Israeli occupation of Lebanese territory.
At the time of the 2000 Israeli withdrawal the UN asked Syria about its position on the issue. Damascus was in a quandary: On the one hand, this was obviously Syrian territory; on the other, if Syria conceded that the farms belong to Lebanon, there might be a chance of getting one more sliver of Arab territory out of Israeli hands.
Syria thus responded that whatever its former claims to the Shaba Farms, it now agreed to cede them to Lebanon.
But when the UN asked Damascus for a formal document stating that the area had indeed been legally transferred to Lebanon, Syria balked – and it has still not supplied such a document.
The short story is that Syria has refused to recognize Lebanon as a sovereign state. Not until this year did Syria appoint it's first ever ambassador to Beirut. At the same time, Lebanon sent its first ambassador to Syria.
Damascus still has powerful allies in Lebanon, including Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed Shi'ite party with a powerful guerrilla army.
The U.S. has pressured Israel to withdraw from Mount Dov for years.
The area is a 100 square mile parcel of land located at the foot of Mount Hermon where the Syrian, Lebanese and Israeli borders meet. Israel took control of the area after the Six Day War in 1967, and since then has built up a number of military outposts on the strategic hills.
Israel's indefensible borders on all sides have led to the necessary land-grabs gained in the 1967 war. How can you defend your people when your enemies refuse to respect your border towns? This 2006 report describes the importance of not letting your enemy bite at your heels:
The drive up to the top of Mt. Dov on Wednesday is done along a narrow and winding road, accessible only in armored vehicles, a memory of Hizbullah's incessant shelling of IDF outposts there not so long ago.
The Gladiola outpost is situated just over the Lebanese village of Shuba with a clear view of Ghajar, as well. Soldiers man heavily-fortified positions along the ridge, keeping an eye on the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) patrols below.
Strangely enough, during the war this summer, the Mt. Dov area was quiet, and saw nearly no fighting. According to the officer, the explanation is simple – Hizbullah does not attack military bases, since they know that in such a situation they will lose.
The importance of the area to Israel is clear:
Since the war in Lebanon, the IDF has invested millions of shekels in fixing the infrastructure along the mountain – from repaving the winding road to installing new antennas and surveillance equipment.
The officer said the soldiers stationed in the series of outposts along the mountain play a key role in assisting the IDF to form accurate assessments of Hizbullah's plans.
The purpose of the powerful Hizbullah in Lebanon is to protest the Mount Dov possession by Israel, claiming that the land belongs to Lebanon.
Hizbullah's attempt to claim sovereignty of Mt. Dov is because the group needs an excuse for its existence," he said. "Otherwise, they are worthless."
Israel Matzav questions any notion of Syria's abandonment of Hizbullah and says this:
Engagement' is one thing and giving up real assets (even if the asset is only a claim) is something else. Mount Dov is a very strategic point that is used for military purposes by Israel.
Why would the Syrians want to let Lebanon have it?
What is Lebanon giving them in return?
…even if Israel were to hand Mount Dov over to Lebanon tomorrow, Hezbullah would continue to exist and would continue to charge Israel with 'occupying Lebanese territory.'
So what is the U.S. doing? Should Syria mark their border and place Mount Dov in Lebanon's hands, and Israel acknowledge that border and abandon the area, how can Israel be rightly convinced that the position would not once again be used against the people of Israel? Could a treaty between Israel and Syria be achieved? Would such a treaty mean safety for Israel? There is no way for Israel to be rightly convinced. This has been a U.S. endeavor through the Bush years. The U.S. should not ask Israel to enter into such an agreement. Afterall, had Israel's neighbors respected their sovereignty, the 1967 War would not have happened.
I believe that if the U.S. and the free world would wholeheartedly and very publicly back Israel, Hamas and Hizbullah would be defeated by the very notion that the west would assist Israel's defense of its own borders. It's very simple. Actively support the right of the Israeli people to exist…but rather than follow such a justifiable position, we quake at the wrath of the Muslim world. The thing we seem to ignore is that living inside that Muslim world is a sovereign non-Muslim nation. Where is the justification for the Muslim rejection of these people?

It ain't always easy to explain how we make a living (especially at those big family gatherings). In such moments, we stick to a simple script: Newad is a media company that has proven to be particularly skilled at reaching influential adults aged 18 to 49 through indoor advertising. Advertisers come to us with their ads, we frame them and get back to them with results. Easy breezy, n'est-ce pas?
In a nutshell
Why us?
Our superpower?
Our favourite colour?
Our greatest regret?
Our dream destination?
Michael Reha's Biography
In 1995 Michael Reha said sayonara to his days not being his own boss and founded Newad. Back then, selling ads in bathroom stalls was no easy feat. For Michael however, who already had a few impressive accomplishments under his belt (namely a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Law, in addition to a career as a lawyer), no challenge was too great.
Newad is anything but your average indoor advertising company and with the success of the business came fancy titles. In 2000 Michael was named president and by 2010 he made acquaintance with three meaningful letters (C.E.O). Regardless of labels, his involvement and passion for the company has always remained the same.

Hold the phone for a second - just what IS the job of the State Attorney General if not to uphold the laws of the state? Just asking. Perhaps that's what Gov. Brewer wants to know, too:
A sudden new twist in the ongoing rhetorical and legal struggle over Arizona's tough new law to round up illegal immigrants.
Late Friday night as the Memorial Day weekend began, Arizona's Republican Gov. Jan Brewer, in effect, suspended the state's Democratic attorney general from defending the new law in upcoming legal challenges. The measure, known as S.B. 1070, is due to take effect this summer and, among other things, allows local police under federal guidelines to check the immigration status of people they stop. (For a full list of background stories, see Related Items below.)
The governor's abrupt action against Terry Goddard, her likely Democratic opponent in this fall's gubernatorial election, came after months of disputes between the two and at the end of a long day of legal maneuvering in both Arizona and the nation's capital.
As the state's chief lawyer, Goddard would be expected to take the lead in defending Arizona against challenges to the Legislature's action, which erupted after years of state frustration with the federal government's inability to secure the state border with Mexico against illegal immigrants, drugs and criminals.
However, Goddard has vocally opposed the measure, so much so that the Legislature gave the governor advance authority to hire outside legal counsel.
On Friday, Goddard met with the Obama administration's Atty. Gen. Eric Holder in Washington, then held a news conference just hours before Brewer's handpicked attorneys were to meet with Holder, an outspoken critic of the law.
Brewer said, "I believe the federal government should use its legal resources to fight illegal immigration, not the State of Arizona."
Seeing apparent collusion between the two Democrat lawyers, Brewer pulled the plug Friday night.
Hmmm. Sounds like there is some monkey business going on with the person who is supposed to be on the side of the state, not the party. Gov. Brewer is not taking this collusion lying down:
Her statement (full text below) said:
Due to Attorney General Goddard's curious coordination with the U.S. Department of Justice today and his consistent opposition to Arizona's new immigration laws, I will direct my legal team to defend me and the State of Arizona rather than the Attorney General in the lawsuits challenging Arizona's immigration laws.
Despite widespread criticism in the media and the Obama administration, whose officials including Holder admitted they had not actually read the legislation, numerous polls have shown deep support for the measure nationally and within Arizona.
And that approval has transferred over to Brewer, who was trailing Goddard early this year in polls of a hypothetical matchup come Nov. 2. Brewer inherited the governor's office last year when Janet Napolitano resigned to accept the man-caused nomination of Homeland Security secretary from President Obama.
Brewer has sought to meet with the now-vacationing Obama during a trip to Washington next week. But the Democrat has been unable to fit the Republican governor and the border issue into his impossible schedule.
Imagine that - the one who is trying to enforce federal law is actually going up in ratings, while those who seem to want porous borders with no enforcement are going down. Hmm. I wonder what message can POSSIBLY be taken away from THAT?
And how about Obama not meeting with Gov. Brewer while she is in town? She is going to be in town because Obama appointed her to a Special Council a while back. But he refuses to meet with her to discuss this issue about which HE has made an issue. Wowie zowie. Perhaps we should change his title to "Petulant In Chief."
You gotta give it to Governor Brewer - she is one helluva strong woman. Obama choosing not to meet with her says way more about him than it does about her. He has no qualms throwing out barbs and zingers, but when he is faced with someone who will stand up to him, he hides. What a bully he is, and what a coward. He could take some lessons - a lot of them - from Gov. Brewer, don't you think?

I often hear statements that go something like this. "Wow!! These are some really nice pictures." Followed by the age old question: "What kid of camera do you have?" I know that this is meant as a compliment and I am learning to take it as such. Yes, I do admit that a good camera can mean everything when it comes to getting that one shot, but ultimately people take pictures and not gear. The true Artist/Photographer, placed in a national park somewhere with the cheapest of cheap cameras, would set about using the camera he or she has.
So why am I creating this page? So those who really want to know and are curious, can come and fill their insatiable curiosity to their heart's content. In the end you may actually leave this post wondering if gear really matters to Clark Graber or not and if I am being consistent.
My first camera was a Samsung S860 Which I bought at Walmart for about 100$. I don't remember much about it because I didn't have it very long. I dunked it in a lake. (I was actually the one dunked if you wish to be technical, but this is about gear and not falling in the lake.) Don't have a lot of pictures that I took with it on this site. I was still learning the Art of Photography.
I replaced with a Sony DSC-H7. This was an advanced P&S I really liked it. I have a few more pics on this site that I took with it. It had lots of zoom and it focused reasonably fast for a P&S. My mom and brother use it now.
I decided I wanted a DSLR and so I went and did lots of research and settled on the Nikon D5000. This is what I have now. I bought it along with a 18 mm - 55mm VR and a 70 - 300 Sigma DG Macro. The camera and kit lens were refurbished by Nikon and the 70 - 300 was used. The first 18 - 55 fell of the table and so I replaced with another refurbished lens exactly like it. I don't use the Sigma lens anymore because I upgraded to a Nikon 70 - 300 VR. My camera will not Autofocus with the sigma. I just added a 35mm 1.8 dx to my collection.
P.S. I'd like to add that when I say "my gear" it is with the understanding that me and everything I own really belongs to God. I do this for His Glory and if He wanted to take it from me that would be His privilege.
So my current collection is as follows:
Camera in my SmartPhone
Nikon D5000
35mm 1.8f dx (Love this lens)
Nikon SB-600 External Flash
Below are some pictures of the gear I use. Note the picture of the back of the camera. There is a piece of rubber missing below the dial. It is where the thumb would rest. Also look close and you will see some of the buttons are well worn. My philosophy is use the gear. You'll never get any pictures if you don't take your camera places.

The names you'll find here are musicians whose artistic ability – genius, in some cases – has dwarfed their limited commercial success. So don your white robes and join us as we count down the 20 gods of cult.
20 Television Personalities
From being asked by Kurt Cobain to support Nirvana, to The Futureheads' cover of 'A Picture Of Dorian Gray', to being the glue that bound the C86/Creation scene of the late '80s, Television Personalities have nonetheless never troubled the mainstream.
Here's Andrew from MGMT on their genius: "We set up a couple of shows with them – they were wild shows. When TVP play they can be completely disastrous, or just really good. It confused the hell out of our fans. They've made some of the best music of the last 30 years."
19 J Dilla
Like so many in the hip-hop scene, it took death for the work of James Dewitt Yancey, to be given the appropriate reverence.
Not by Jack Barnett from These New Puritans though: "My brother lent me a copy of 'Donuts' – two days before he died, weirdly.
"He was unique for his approach to rhythms, a kind of out-of-timeness. I admire his imperfections; he was definitely the most standout figure from that entire independent hip-hop scene."
Download: Anything on 'Donuts'
18 Alec Empire
With Atari Teenage Riot, Alec Empire invented digital hardcore and reconnected techno with politics, while as the label boss of Digital Hardcore Recordings, he's been the leading light in the Berlin electronic avant-vanguard.

17 Bill Drummond
While others schemed it, he lived it.
While most moaned about the state of the charts and banality of record labels, he put the entire music industry over his lap and gave it a spanking – whether it was The KLF deleting their entire back-catalogue, costing themselves a fortune, or them toasting another fortune in the infamous burning-a-million-quid saga.
Drummond has always gone out and brought us back the news about the relationship between art, music, and commerce.
16 Bis
Despite being the first DIY-punk-pop-riot-grrrl-band-who-wrote-their-own-fanzines to appear on Top Of The Pops, this Glasgow trio were the subject of much derision.
Yet in recent years their cult has striven to right past wrongs; 2010 even saw their fans hold International Bis Day, with tribute bands playing in venues worldwide.
15 Billy Childish
Born Steven John Hamper in 1959, Childish is an English artist, painter, author, poet, photographer, filmmaker, singer and guitarist.
He is loved by Graham Coxon: "I watched Thee Headcoats play at St John's Tavern [in Archway, London] in the mid-'90s. That was long before I met Billy – I think Thee Headcoats were coming to an end by the time I actually went to go talk to him.
14 Big L
In hip-hop, so often you don't know what you got 'til it's gone. Never more true than with Lamont Coleman, dead by bullet at 24, possibly in a tragic case of mistaken identity.
13 Lydia Lunch
Lydia Lunch is a spoken-word performance artist who has, at times, made GG Allin look like the kind of chap you'd take home for tea with your grandparents.
In New York in 1976, aged 17, she formed Teenage Jesus And The Jerks, an abrasive no-wave noise band who took punk's rudimentary three chords and ripped them apart with knives and beer bottles.
12 Mike Patton
For over 20 years the 42-year-old Californian has been confounding audiences, fronting a succession of bands who push the envelope with every note.
Simon Neil from Biffy Clyro is an acolyte: "We love him because he's always shown the right amount of contempt for the industry and has always followed his own muse. It's a lesson that more bands could follow…"

11 Whitehouse
Whitehouse were formed in Brighton in 1980 by William Bennett, under some encouragement from Mute boss Daniel Miller, who bequeathed William a WASP synthesizer. Bennett used the instrument to make an awful, ear-splitting racket over which he and a 14-year-old runaway from Bristol called Philip Best would screech vulgar lyrics.
10 Mark Linkous
When we were putting together this issue, everyone in the NME office argued about who should be in this list. Nearly everyone said Sparklehorse. Then when Mark Linkous passed away the doubters joined them in agreement.
9 Daniel Johnston
Daniel Dale Johnston is perhaps US indie's ultimate cult hero – yet he's seen his career hindered by his long-term bipolar disorder. Here's Marina Diamandis on his enduring brilliance: "What I love about Daniel Johnston is that he can't hide his emotions and doesn't have a lot of vocal control. I've got a Daniel Johnston T-shirt and I'm going to cover 'Walking The Cow' one day.
8 Yoko Ono
Alongside her late husband John Lennon, Yoko was one half of the principal avant-garde power couple of the late '60s and '70s. In mainstream circles, her art, both musical and visual, has often gone unrecognised but she's not short of her devotees.
We thought we'd call her up and see how she felt about being in our list: "I don't feel like a cult hero – but if you tell me I am then I accept it! I have just gone down my own path and made art and music that expresses how I feel."
7 Ian Svenonius
Whether fronting seminal DC punks The Nation Of Ulysses, The Make-Up, Weird War, or his new band Chain And The Gang, Ian Svenonius is a true underground don.
We asked him about his cult heroes. "My main hero is Fidel Castro because he really is heroic. In rock'n'roll, the people that people love are the ones who make one record or die. Like Nick Drake and The La's. I see myself as an edge-frayer, slowly polluting the rock'n'roll gene pool and having less people care about me."
6 Bob Pollard – Guided By Voices
Nobody wrote songs like Guided By Voices – short, snappy, lo-fi perfect pop that was more often than not drunker than Shane MacGowan at a wedding.
The Strokes' Julian Casablancas is a member of their cult: "Guided By Voices' music is like all the great knowledge that's out there in the world, things like Oscar Wilde's Phrases And Philosophies For The Use Of The Young or reading quotes from The Analects – you know, the Confucius thing…
5 The Yummy Fur
Led by 1990s frontman Jackie McKeown, The Yummy Fur were not only one of the most important Scottish indie bands ever – before finding success with Franz Ferdinand, Alex Kapranos and Paul Thomson made up their numbers – but also a unique band with an impressive catalogue of work in their own right.
4 The Replacements
Envied for their talent by other bands in their home city of Minneapolis, this permanently wasted stink-rock foursome were banned from rock clubs across America for trashing stages, and loathed by their record company for wrecking every opportunity that came their way. But behind that goofy demeanour and songs called things like 'Gary's Got A Boner', The 'Ments had a soft spot a mile wide.
3 Richard Hell
Richard Hell might not – as he claims – have actually invented punk rock but, at the very least, he was the man who gave it its identity.
Sporting the kind of haircut previously only modelled by lunatic asylum patients and wearing a shirt held together with safety pins, Hell – born Richard Myers in 1949 – wasn't to know that 40 years later his sartorial statement would be a uniform for fledgling rock troupes worldwide.
2 Alex Chilton
As a 17-year-old in 1967, Alex Chilton was the singer with Memphis pop-soul act The Box Tops when they scored a global Number One hit with 'The Letter'. But when the band split he found himself a has-been aged 20.
His response? Forming Big Star, whose mix of '60s British pop and heartfelt, self-doubting lyrics flopped, before a plethora of bands – principally Teenage Fanclub – started to recognize Chilton as one of the all-time great American songwriters.

1 Mark E Smith
Life in The Fall is brutish and short, but some alumni have achieved independent celebrity. Marc Riley, who played on The Fall's classic album 'Hex Enduction Hour' (1982), is now a BBC 6 Music DJ. Brix Smith-Start, guitarist during the mid-'80s, is now a sidekick to Gok Wan.

Given the rapid adoption of tablets and smartphones, the likelihood of websites being accessed from a variety of devices and locations is inevitable. As a result, responsive design's popularity has been steadily increasing. Yet, advertisers and publishers acting on this trend may be missing a huge opportunity by not digging a little deeper.
Traditional responsive design leverages one code base to modify layouts to fit screen size when it could do so much more. With advances in technology and strategic application of content, advertisers can offer a more compelling user experience. Data supports the importance of a consistent user experience across multiple platforms as well as the value of influencing users at the moment they are transacting with your brand.
The evolution of "responsive" design takes into consideration key influences such as "What" (What products and services are you promoting or selling?) "Who" (what device is the user on? A competitive device? An older device? An iPad?), "Where" (where is the user? In a store? Near a store? At en event? Likely in their home?). "When" (what time/season/day is it? Is there seasonality to your business?) "Why" (what makes a user loyal to your brand?). By leveraging these easily accessible messaging points, advertisers are able to deliver the most compelling message to the right person at the exact right time.
The idea of "the next phase responsive web" doesn't stop at experiential improvements. While development firms are building more agile and contextual digital experiences, there is a shift of technology from server-side delivered experiences to front-end or client (browser) determined experiences. This has an influence on SEO and can – if done properly – begin to positively impact natural search traffic. All of these elements combine to give the term "Responsive Web" a more elegant and sophisticated meaning.

It is usually worn out by drugs asides infections and inflammations. Unlike the kidney which is a pair and donors are easily found, the liver is just one and no one with a healthy liver will easily donate it (except the person is willing to die). Depending on the type of disease associated with the liver, the successful treatment of a liver disease varies.
Surprising Ways You Can Damage Your Liver
Consumption mistakes; Adults who were/are alcoholics and drugs abusive are mostly affected with liver problems which lead to discomfort and early deaths because the oxidative capacity of the liver decreases with aging.
Misuse of drugs and drug abuse; Drugs especially paracetamol/painkillers and any other drug should not be taken every time. It should only be taken when necessary in the appropriate dosage because the metabolism of drugs takes place in the liver. Continuous metabolism of drugs by the enzymes present in the liver results in the production of more active and toxic compounds which produce liver injury.
Diseases of the liver and its causes;
Alcoholic liver diseases including alcoholic hepatitis, fatty liver, and cirrhosis are caused by excessive alcohol consumption.
Budd–Chiari syndrome which is caused by blockage of the hepatic veins (including thrombosis) that drains the liver.
Hepatic encephalopathy is caused by an accumulation of toxins in the bloodstream that are normally removed by the liver.
Hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E are mostly sexually transmitted diseases of the liver (not all are sexually transmitted). It is caused by viruses which cause liver inflammation and is usually the cause of liver cancer.
Liver damages caused by drug abuse particularly paracetamol, other painkillers and drugs used to treat cancer.
Care of the liver;
♥ Eating healthy foods like green vegetables, garlic, apple, avocados, green tea, grains and liver from edible animals helps to build a strong liver.
♥ Regular exercise aids the proper functioning of the liver.
♥ Avoid or take a little quantity of alcohol.
♥ Keep your weight under control to avoid fats in the liver.
Stay healthy!

All public authorities have mechanisms such as complaints or grievance processes, through which either employees or members of the public can raise matters of concern. For the most part, individual issues are able to be raised and resolved through these mechanisms. Occasionally however, an issue may arise which because of its seriousness, the seniority of the person it affects, or for some other reason, it may not be appropriate to use the usual complaints/grievance process. In cases like this it may be appropriate to lodge a public interest disclosure.
The Public Interest Disclosure Act 2003 (the PID Act) enables people to make disclosures about wrongdoing within the State Public Sector, local government and public universities and offers protections for doing so. The PID Act aims to ensure openness and accountability in government by encouraging people to make disclosures by maintaining confidentiality and providing immunity from detrimental action.
Anyone who believes on reasonable grounds that the information they have is or may be true can make a disclosure, including an employee of a public authority or a member of the public. A disclosure is more than a general complaint about dissatisfaction with a product or service or a decision by the public body, and is more than a personal grievance that can be resolved by agreement between parties. In order to be covered by the Act, the information needs to relate to a matter of public interest.
This could include:
Should the matter fall under this category the next step is to contact RWWA's PID Officer, Matthew Thomas (General Manager Human Resources) by phone on 9445 5521 or email email@example.com for the matter to be discussed.
Reporting Suspected Misconduct
Individuals can contact the RWWA PID Officer to report instances of suspected misconduct involving RWWA staff or Directors.
Alternatively suspicions may be reported to the following external agencies:
Advice regarding what constitutes serious or minor misconduct is available at the following sites:
Any stakeholder aggrieved by a decision of RWWA shall be required to commit concerns in writing to the RWWA CEO, who will then determine how the request shall be dealt with. Responses to concerns should be received within one business week.
In accordance with Part 5 of the Freedom of Information Act 1992, the following Information Statement has been prepared to provide advice to the public about RWWA's operations, the type of documentation available and how the public can access that documentation.
This Statement has been expanded to include not only the statutory requirements of the FOI Act, but the RWWA Privacy Policy.
