Bringing Metal to the Children - Zakk Wylde
The Berzerkers of Asgard
To my Brothers and Sisters, Berzerkers and Berzerker-ettes, for the Immortal Beloved sayeth, do we not reside in Asgard?! For the immortal strength of the OdinForce shall carry them to victory and make all of Asgard Proud! And we shall celebrate with drink and feast, another glorious day in our holy lands, brimming with the enlightenment and enchantment of Rock.
And whilst I break away from the highest peaks of Valhalla, where I forge the Metal of the Gods, after once I hammer the Immortal Beloved with mine crotchal Mjöllnir, thou shalt don thine axe and join me in allegiance as we wage war against the enemy that has brought Vaginal countenance to our sacred rites!
So shall I return to Asgard victorious or upon mine own shield. And I shall once again drink from the cup and savor the Nectar of the Gods!!! What sayeth thee, mine battle-ready brethren? Shall we march forth in unison to the measures of the sounding drums? For the quakening of the earth is near upon us, and all shall hail the flags of Asgard! Let us beseech the blessing of almighty God as we begin this great and noble Black Label Crusade!
Zakk, you are so cute when you imagine yourself a Viking.
Note from Zakk: Trust me, I don't think I'm a fucking Viking. But the fact that everybody keeps throwing this shit in my face 'cause I've got long hair and a fucking beard—all the while taking the fucking piss out of me—I guess we'll just run with it. With all the little chuckles I hear from you motherfuckers, you guys seem to be enjoying yourselves.
The Berzerkers were the most crazed motherfucking Vikings that ever lived. To give you a little history lesson on these ancient warriors, they fought in a nearly uncontrollable, trancelike fury, much like the Incredible Hulk on a cocktail of steroids and acid. They battled in the name of Odin, chief god of war and ruler of Asgard, one of their mystical Nine Worlds. In battle, many Berzerkers fought bare-chested to prove to the enemy their immunity to iron weapons. And if they had to wear clothes it was surely pelts from bears or wolves. These motherfuckers were fearless and brutal, eating their enemies and toasting with the blood of their foes. On a side note, this kind of behavior also exists in my home. When my wife, Barbaranne, comes at me with an iron weapon, I simply expose my manly chest and she freezes in astonishment. Mind you, it's probably from my sheer patheticness, but she freezes nonetheless.
berserk back then usually happened during the heat of battle, but the condition could also kick in during heavy labor. Men, who were chosen by the OdinForce to become berserk, were capable of crazy, superhuman feats. The condition would begin with tremors, chattering of the teeth, and finally, a deep chill would set in; then their faces would swell up and turn red with fury. These symptoms of mightiness developed into an all-encompassing rage, under which the Berzerkers would howl like wild animals, bite the edges of their shields, and cut down everything and everyone in their paths with their mighty blades, and without discriminating between friend and foe. It took up to several days for Berzerkers to come down from the adrenaline. These warriors were so infamous that many of the Viking kings chose to use Berzerkers as their personal bodyguards. They were so ferocious and uncontrollable that they were even afraid of themselves. And I'm positive that's why Barb married me. She thinks I'm her personal Viking bodyguard, with some extra benefits, one being my Crotchal Mjöllnir, and she has given it many endearing nicknames—bather of conquest, hole puncher, rod god, labia stretcher … you get the idea.
To get ready for battle, the Berzerkers would lose their fucking minds by powering down fistfuls of hallucinogenic mushrooms and buckets of booze spiked with a spice called bog myrtle. This battle brew was known to maximize aggressive behavior but left them with massive hangovers. The Berzerkers also drank wolf's blood, believing that it helped to really kick in the frenzy.
Raging, alcohol-fueled warriors with relentless determination, battling in the name of the Metal god Odin—yeah, that was something our boozed-up, pilled-up brothers and sisters heading out to their children's school PTA meetings could get behind. The Berzerker moniker fuels our pursuit of wreaking havoc across the globe, tearing new assholes, stealing farmers' daughters, and drinking all the towns' whiskey—just to live up to our merciless Viking namesakes.
Note from Zakk: Listen, don't literally go around wreaking havoc, tearing new assholes—as opposed to old assholes—stealing farmers' daughters, or whatever other goofy-ass shit Father Eric is talking about here that might get your ass kicked, killed, or put in jail. Don't listen to Father Eric here. Eric is a fucking idiot, okay? We love him. But he's an idiot nonetheless. Trust me, he has never done any of the ridiculous bullshit he's talking about here—maybe with his GI Joe doll collection, but that's about it. Why do you think he doesn't have a girlfriend? What chick in her right mind is ever gonna hook up with a guy talking stupid shit like this with a GI Joe doll hanging out of his back pocket? Don't be like Eric. Which literally means: Don't be a fucking idiot.
P.S. Love you, buddy! :)
Bleeding Black Label
JAPAN, 1991: I WAS WITH OZZY FOR THE NO MORE TEARS TOUR. ONE insane night, while firing off some really heavy riffs next to the Boss, I swear Odin came straight down from Valhalla and shot a fucking lightning bolt right up my ass. It was either that or I got shocked by my own gear, and since this is my book I'm going with the Viking story. I mean really, for all you know I could have been zapped backstage in the dressing room while plugging in my makeup kit to apply some rouge before the show. Just pay attention, I'm only five sentences into my book and we're all over the fuckin' map with it already.
There I was onstage, pummeling through these heavy fucking jams with Oz and the guys, getting zapped in the rectum, and then the vision came to me. All of a sudden I saw the crowd not as what they were but as what they would become—a legion of Berzerkers, or as my manager would prefer to call them,
cash crops with legs. And as Ozzy and I continued blasting out songs from No Rest for the Wicked, No More Tears, and some of the works of genius that Lord Iommi, Saint Rhoads, and Father Lee blessed us with, I could not stop these electrified visions. And neither could my manager, as he was already making phone calls to place a down payment on a new mansion in Malibu. One second I was looking at a row of cheerful fans, singing along to these musical masterpieces of doom and head-banging to the complete Armageddon of Metal, the next second I was looking on as my manager placed his order for a new Maserati, loaded to the hilt with all the options. The audience looked like a horde of battle-ready Vikings awaiting the command to attack. As I was cranking the shit out of my Marshall wall of doom I could see on the horizon the day of the Berzerker Nation. That was the first night I was drawn into the OdinForce and the first night my manager was drawn into the nearest Prudential real estate brokerage. It also dawned on me during this pinnacle moment of genius that not only do cowboys like Jon Bon Jovi come from New Jersey, but Vikings are from New Jersey as well—along with a high teen pregnancy rate and an even higher involvement with alcohol and getting high by inhaling Freon.
The further we got into our show, the more I could see the Berzerker Metal madness grow, as well as the sheer enlightenment and joy on my accountant and manager's faces, not so much over the mountains of Valhalla, but over the mountains of potential earnings and 401(k) contributions, as they envisioned paychecks that dwarfed anything they had conceived of. The thought of the piles upon piles of dollars upon dollars set their eyes gleaming like the stars on Orion's Belt. I was literally blinded by their money-grubbing glares, and the audience was illuminated by the intensity. Each and every fan had an inner warrior, armed and ready to explode into a frenzy of rock 'n' roll–infused destruction and debauchery. Wait … Is this a rock show I'm talking about or the Festivus miracle going on inside my wife Barbaranne's baby-maker? It wasn't about me, it was about bringing all Metal fans into one family, one horde, one society, and one womb. All of us joining forces against the world in hopes of keeping JD out of the unemployment line—a line in which he has spent most of his adult life.
And so began the almighty Black Label Society.
And much like Jimmy Page was called upon by the spirit of the dark poet Aleister Crowley to lead mass services in the name of Rock, I was called upon by my boss, the produce manager of Fine Fair, to restock the Granny Smith apples before I clocked out for my ten-minute break. Jimmy is a living god, and much more than just a guitar player. He conjured his art on the guitar, but he also took the lead as a songwriter, producer, mixing engineer, and art director—his band was his baby, his calling. Playing in the Yardbirds put him on the map, but it didn't sum him up as an artist. Jimmy wandered deep into the forest of dark souls to master his craft and create the heart that would one day beat in the name of Led Zeppelin. His journey was otherworldly. Unlike my journey, from the stockroom to the produce aisles. From Pope Page's conversations with Crowley in the netherworld, he gathered the ingredients he needed to brew the mind-altering compositions that live on today. And from my direct order from the produce manager, I gathered the freshest and greenest Granny Smith apples I could obtain from the produce gods in the back of the store.
Note from Zakk: Again …
Forest of dark souls?
Netherworld? I have no fuckin' idea what the fuck Eric is writing about here. Gimme a fucking break—the guy just loved music. We'll let Father Eric run with his illustrious bullshit though, since he is a Black Label brother—and I use the term brother in the loosest way. I do, however, still enjoy a fine Granny Smith apple from time to time. Try them with caramel, kids, and if you want to really live on the edge, combine it with peanuts—its netherworldly.
Page formed his band, a concept far greater than himself, and they circled the earth, converting ordinary masses to his rock 'n' roll religion. And let me tell you, it's quite the religion—what the fuck this religion advocates is completely wacked. I'll just say this—morals and overall cleanliness don't rank too high in this religion. Anyway, moving on… So this is what the Nordic gods intended for the Berzerkers and what one cattle-prodding deity beckoned for me to create … one global nation of merciless motherfuckers intact with all the insanity and comedy one could possibly hope for.
The Berzerker Empire was founded upon the most important elements of life: God, family, music, and fearless drinking—unlike my manager, whose foundation is Satan, selfishness, dead silence, number crunching, and the utter fear of ending up spiritually broken and penniless. Hold on a second, my manager has no fucking spirit. In fact, he's completely soulless when it comes to pillaging the pockets, wallets, and purses of anyone he comes in contact with. And that, kids, is exactly why I hired him. It didn't take long for the concept to progress, for the good word to spread, and for people to gather. Although the foundations of Black Label are expressed in the music, the message is much deeper than drinking and listening to epic tunes. It is greater than the band and the show. It is a family, a brotherhood, a unity, a mind-set, and a way of life. And as long as the money keeps rolling in, management, record companies, and whoever else is on the Black Label pay-roll will let me believe whatever bullshit BLS represents to me in all that is sacred and holy.
We live by a creed—Strength, Determination, Merciless, Forever. Our code, honest and meaningful, is rooted more than a thousand years deep. That is, unless you go by my manager's timeline, because then it goes back to the first time someone discovered that they could pawn some useless horseshit off on some dumb motherfucker and come out on top. Just like the minute the Indians started selling fuckin' pelts, it was game fuckin' on. Getting back to our Viking ancestors, among whom physical, mental, and spiritual strength ruled all and each individual was part of an indestructible fortress. We are relentless in our pursuit, merciless in our behavior, eternal in our hearts. And with the gods of Valhalla watching over our Order, and my manager, wife, accountant, and team of lawyers watching over my expenditures, we stride forward on our path of global domination, spreading the word to the masses at our nightly Black Label church services. Our venue is our electrified cathedral, our music is our sermon, and all who attend are our family. And if you happen to spot a truly shady-looking character passing around the collections basket during our Black Label masses, that would be my manager, lining his fucking pockets with silver and gold to keep up his fleet of Mercedes and to complete construction of a fully equipped wet bar near his heated outdoor pool in Malibu.
SDMF: Strength, Determination, Merciless, Forever
I placed this motto on a crucifix, just like INRI, which is often on crucifixes but means
Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews. And when you see me play, you might notice that I do the sign of the cross twice, once for the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and then again for Strength, Determination, Merciless, Forever. While I'm onstage counting my blessings and thanking the good Lord for the strength he gives me and my Black Label family to continue following our passions, my manager is counting his blessings as well—eight homes, sixteen cars, lucrative offshore investments, and a time-share in Aspen, Colorado. God bless him.
Strength has always been my foundation—physically, mentally, and spiritually—that and the short string of belief that I cling to each day, the hope that my wife and children actually care about me. I began my strength-building routine after the first time my wife beat me up and embarrassed me in front of our children and I finally decided it was time for me to giddyup. Every morning after powering down my Valhalla java I head into my gym, the Doom Crew Iron Dungeon, and throw around some chunks of iron. I even bring a weight set with me when we're out on deployment so I can get in a good pump each day before we hit the stage. I also like to get in a good pump with my wife, or if she's not havin' it, with my right hand.
Although I do all sorts of exercises in the gym, squats are my favorite. Just that repetitive motion of grinding up and down, lunging and throbbing, sweating and clenching, greasing and buttering, gripping and stretching, gaping and… Oh wait, time out. What the fuck happened? Where am I? Oh yeah, I drifted back into the music business again, where greasing, buttering, ass-gaping, and backstabbing are bodily functions like pissing and shitting.
Aside from the heavy-hitting squats, I also follow a strong regimented workout that I designed over the years and that works well for me. It's basically the same as the routine of most power lifters and bodybuilding champions, except for the results. Then I drop in an hour and a half of cardio daily, whether it's on the treadmill or while blasting through a Black Label set onstage. I also have a high-protein diet, taking in up to three hundred grams of protein a day, depending on how many grams of protein I dumped on the Warden that morning, or again, if she wasn't havin' it, how many loads I splattered on the bathroom stall down at the venue. Replenishing my loads of doom is really easy, being that I'm in the music business. There is no shortage of motherfuckers I gotta suck off in order to keep the almighty Black Label Armada rolling. With the amount of music biz cock-gobbling I've gotta perform, between my manager, agents, band salaries, per diems, bus drivers, truck drivers, my wife's personal trainer (who I'm sure she's been fucking while I'm out here killing myself, bleeding Black fuckin' Label every waking second … mind you, I couldn't really give a shit as long as she's got a smile on her face; you know how it goes—the girls don't like to be disappointed!), the bright side is that my vocal cords are eternally lubed. Gotta stay positive! Fuck it—Merciless. (What that means, we'll get to soon enough.)
I don't do steroids, but I should. Then I'd have an excuse for all the pissy fits, road rages, tantrums, outbursts, yelling at my wife, then forgiveness flowers, screaming at my children, then forgiveness allowances—not to mention all the douchebag lead-singer shit I pull on the guys in the band. That said, I think it's fucking hilarious when people say that I'm on the juice. They see a picture of me at 249 pounds and a shot of me when I was eighteen years old at 140 pounds, and they assume it all happened overnight after a magical injection straight out of Barry Bonds's medicine cabinet. But if I did use steroids I wouldn't need Barry. I'd have my own team of shady gym owners and back-door physicians who would supply me with a black-market Titanic-load of growth hormones, Dianabol and Winstrol—enough to have any pancreas, liver, or pair of kidneys screaming for mercy.
They don't think of the twenty-plus years in between 1987 Zakk and 2011 Zakk where I was training all the time and eating healthy (though drinking professionally). The only supplements I take are protein shakes and vitamins. I don't bother with anything else. With the blood-thinning medication I'm on these days to avoid blood clots, I don't know how certain supplements will react. I'm no fuckin' nuclear physicist, but I do play one on television. And what if I do take creatine and it doesn't mix well with the shit I have to take for my blood, and I fucking croak in my sleep? I'll tell you what would happen. It would set off a nuclear chain reaction of money-hungry scavengers hoping to squeeze any remaining drops of blood from my deteriorating corpse.
I can picture it now—Barbaranne, management, and the accountants would all meet at Spago in Beverly Hills for a nice lunch and to begin planning how they are going to repackage all of the Black Label Society catalog and also release every fucking recording I've ever made, in a studio or on a cassette tape, and then probably even try to release some shit that I had nothing to do with. Back-alley meetings would take place with a black-market taxidermist to have me stuffed and preserved so that they could prop me up and continue selling meet-and-greet packages to the Black Label family. Barbaranne would sell the compound and run off with a failed NBA player. At seven foot two, with a relentlessly hammering, pounding cock of doom, and the life insurance money, and whatever Black Label shit the wife and management can pawn off, his basketball skills really won't fucking matter at that juncture, nor what college he claims to have graduated from.
Next my manager would place an order for his own corporate jet, and it would be one big party for all. I guess everything is fair game once I'm up in God's tavern with the rest of our fallen saints. But seriously, as I sit here writing, there is a vulture sitting impatiently on the back of my chair staring down at me like I'm a giant fleshy sack of cash, its insatiable drool spilling over the pages of my manuscript, just waiting to get the proceeds from this book and every other motherfucking thing I've ever done. Anyway, about the steroids, fuck all that noise. The last time I checked, I'm doing just fine by lifting weights and eating clean proteins.
Besides being physically fit, you've also got to keep your mind strong. If you don't believe in what you're doing, no one else is going to. That's why I have to believe Barbaranne when she tells me that she's not cheating on me and that our three children are really ours. Mind you, we didn't have sex during the two years prior to our youngest being born, but Barb told me that Immaculate Conception is a real and common occurrence. Lucky for her I'm a devout Catholic and not a devout atheist. Otherwise, I'd ask her if she filmed herself fucking the other guy so I can at least jerk off to this shit. Once again—gotta stay positive, kids.
And having religion won't hurt either. There are so many choices out there, it can't hurt to pick one of the nicer ones and run with it. Being a soldier of Christ, I believe in Jesus and everything he represents. Having compassion for others, giving to those who are less fortunate, protecting the innocent, empowering others as opposed to enslaving, making sacrifices for the benefit of others, and bringing someone other than yourself happiness. And through Jesus, the crucifix represents unconquerable and everlasting strength, sacrifice, blood, commitment, and faith in all that is good. Then I just ask the good Lord, why have you put JDesus in my life? Why? Why, beloved Father? Why?
Now, if your religious leader tells you to go out and murder a bunch of innocent people because they think the Stones are better than the Beatles, or that Lady Gaga can bench-press more than Madonna could when she was the same age—try to stay away from this religion. As history has shown, in the poker game of life, when you try to explain to a judge that your religious leader told you to murder innocent people over a Stones vs. Beatles debate, you will usually find that the law carries a royal flush over your religious leader. If you need any proof, ask the Manson girls—as their long-awaited album and tour has been pushed back so many times at each passing year's parole meeting. It makes Geffen Records look like they got off easy with Chinese Democracy.
The next religion I would try to persuade you to stay away from would be the one where the religious leader tells everybody that a meteor is coming to take us all away. But before we jump on board the meteor to go to the promised land where the McDonald's two-for-one is eternally on, we each have to put a Hefty bag over our head and seal it around our neck, suffocating us, while we slice off our fucking genitals! Now, this religion and religious leader can put a goliath fucking damper on all of your rock 'n' roll dreams. For not just one but four terrible reasons:
1. Putting a Hefty bag over your head to snuff the life out of you is bad.
2. What happens if your favorite football team is making a push for the play-offs after several bad seasons?
3. You find out that Carvel ice cream is reintroducing the legendary ice cream cake that is Cookie Puss.
4. Your wife tells you she wants to do the threesome with her girlfriend who you think is slammin'.
Well, guess what? Forget your football team holding up the Lombardi trophy. Forget having that crazy birthday party with all of your friends while enjoying Cookie Puss. And definitely forget about throwing back some Viagra and pounding and dominating the living shit out of your slammin' wife and her hot girlfriend. You ain't got no cock and balls, you dumb motherfucker! Oh, and another thing, Einstein—you're fucking dead.
In the end, find a religion that enriches your life and the lives of others and try to avoid religious leaders who land you in jail for thirty years to life. It is also advisable to keep sharp objects away from your genitals—they don't like that.
Determination only comes with you straight out of the womb. You can't learn determination. You either have it or you don't. That's why as hard as I try to beat it senselessly into JD's body, I'll never be successful. His body is already full, but with holes and emptiness that befuddle all laws of physics. Just like you can't fill a colander with water, you also can't fill JD's body with an ounce of determination. Whereas the Black Label creed is stronger than death, JD's is weaker than life. His heartless, soulless, lifeless, and friendless existence is an astonishing anomaly that will always amaze me.
That being said, the two most determined guys on the planet I've ever known are my father and Ozzy. These are

Anne Christian Buchanan has very well said that "To be pregnant is to be vitally alive, thoroughly woman, and distressingly inhabited. Soul and spirit are stretched – along with body – making pregnancy a time of transition, growth, and profound beginnings."
Maternity is one of the most beautiful and important phases of a couple's life. This is the time when your life is going to take a new turn and everything will be different not only for the mother but also for the entire family. With a new member added to your family, there is also going to be an addition to your expenses. So in order to ensure better and pre-natal and post-natal period a well-constructed maternity insurance plan is necessary, which will not only help in easing off the increasing of child and mother care but also let you embrace your parenthood.
The maternity insurance plan is basically an add-on rider with the general health insurance plan, which covers maternity costs. In a large number of corporate maternity is an addition to incorporate group policies with the sub-limit of not exceeding Rs.50000. The benefit of a maternity insurance plan is it covers various expenses like:
- Hospitalization- it covers pre-hospitalization expenses up to 30 days prior to the date of delivery and post-hospitalization expenses up to 60 days.
- Hospitalization cost- this includes nurse and surgeon, room charges, medical practitioner fee, emergency ambulance charges, anesthetist consultation charges.
- It covers expenditure related to both normal and cesarean delivery along with post-delivery complications for the mother.
- Day to day checkups.
- Checkups of your newborn till 90 days if they are diagnosed with any health issue or critical illness.
In most of corporate houses women employees are also provided with maternity insurance along with their health insurance.

Waiting for this policy is of 3 years and if there are any complications to mother after delivery then expenses related to that are also covered under this plan. To the maximum amount of Rs.1000 clinical tests are also covered. In this plan the coverage is extended only after the waiting period of 27 months.
5. Max Bupa Heartbeat family floater plan-
The best part about this plan is that it covers both maternity and newborn baby expenses under its three plans, which are gold, silver, and platinum. Under this plan vaccination charges up to the first year of the newborn are covered. The waiting period for this plan is two years. Under this plan, a maximum of two deliveries is covered.
Therefore, it is important to get maternity insurance both for the family and baby, as keeps you away from the stress and nightmare of paying huge medical bills and also eases your path for medical checkups. Maternity insurance acts as a financial backup for one and also provides mother and baby with good quality healthcare. These plans also help the family prepare themselves for complications faced during pregnancy and acts as a support system for them. Thus, we can say that with a well-constructed maternity insurance plan one can easily treasure the beautiful moments before and after pregnancy without any stress.

The historic Grassalkovich Castle in Gödöllő was built in the mid 18th century, the largest in Europe and is second only to Versailles. During the Second World War, the castle fell into a state of disrepair, until large-scale renovation works began in the late 20th century, with a focus on making the venue suitable for hosting major events.
As part of the renovation works, the castle's building services were needed to be upgraded to meet modern standards. Elektrovill won the contract to design, supply, install, commission and maintain the fire detection system. They recommended a system that is based around Apollo's XP95 analogue addressable technology.
Around 70 XP95 smoke and heat detectors were arranged in three zones and are controlled by Global Fire Equipment's Juno-Net panel. As a result of Apollo's open protocol and extensive XP95 range, there was greater freedom of choice when designing the system. Apollo interfacing devices, such as input/output units and switch monitor units, were used to enable the Apollo fire detection system to link with other critical equipment including aspirating detectors.
Ákos Kürti, Managing Director of Elektrovill Ltd, said:
"Apollo technology was chosen to protect this venue because of its reliability. When you are protecting a venue as historically important as this, it is important that your fire detection is completely trustworthy. "

Posted by Shevonne Hunt at February 27 2017, 2:46pm
This weekend my husband and I were having a debate in our kitchen, one that I'm thinking many couples probably had.
The catalyst? A provocative opinion piece titled 'Why I Won't Let Any Male Babysit My Children' by Kasey Edwards, published in the Fairfax papers.
In it, she outlines why she and her husband have agreed their daughters will never be looked after by a male. Ever. She backs up their decision with evidence from reputable institutions like the Australian Institute of Family Studies and the Australian Institute of Criminology.
"The blanket rule against allowing our daughters to be in the care of lone male adults means that we do not have to make a moral assessment of every man," she writes. "My husband and I do not want to delve into the characters of every man that we know and assess whether or not they are potential sexual predators, so we apply our rule to all men to avoid casting aspersions on people."
My husband had some valid arguments I've seen others express. Like, if Kasey doesn't apply the principal to her own husband she's a hypocrite, or that teaching girls to fear men is a dangerous precedent.
But I think all of these arguments are missing the point.
What Kasey's article did highlight was the enormity of a problem facing all parents. And that is, children that are abused are overwhelmingly abused by someone we know and trust.
Think about that for a moment. We are told, from all the evidence, that the person most likely to hurt our children is someone we would not dream of committing such a crime.
How do we deal with that? Kasey Edwards has her approach, which many would argue (including Kasey herself) is difficult to implement, regardless of whether you agree with it or not.
Personally, I don't see it as the answer, but I have spent a lot of time agonizing – in the face of such brutal facts- how do I keep my kids safe?
As the host of Kinderling Conversation (link), I've spoken to people who are experts in various areas of child development, and I've interviewed with people who work in the child protection field.
One of those people is Danielle Groden from Act For Kids, a non-profit organization that works in child protection. Read her full interview here.
In a nut shell, their argument is that we should be empowering our kids - through open communication and honesty.
Danielle says says it's letting children having agency over their own bodies, by not making them hug or kiss people they don't want to (even if it's your own mum or dad), teaching them the difference between the private and public parts of their body, about the difference between good and bad secrets and using anatomically correct terms for their bodies.
Sharon Stewart is the National Education Manager at Bravehearts, another group that works to keep children safe from sexual assault. On top of Danielle's points, she says that communication is always a two way street. It's not just about teaching our children these things, it's about listening to them as well.
"They need to feel safe and comfortable that if they come to you with this information that they will be listened to."
Of course, this is by no means a fool-proof approach to child protection. We still need to be guided by our own intuition and not place our children in unsafe situations. Children are vulnerable by the very fact they are smaller and weaker than most adults. It doesn't completely answer the question: how do you protect your child against people you love and trust?
But for me, it's a step in the right direction. One that aims to empower them, without making them scared.
And one that means that while I'm still careful with my children, I needn't look at everyone with suspicion.

Am I imagining that it costs more money to buy groceries in Gungahlin Woollies or Coles – than say Dickson or Belconnen (etc)?? Anyone else notice this unfair trend?
Lifestyle2020 MAKE IT HAPPEN
Am I imagining that it costs more money to buy groceries in Gungahlin Woollies or Coles – than say Dickson or Belconnen (etc)?? Anyone else notice this unfair trend?
Kingston IGA is very useful, too. and you can buy the grog with all the other stuff, and not have to make 2 separate purchases. Convenient.
And yeah, rich people tend to be very value-concious. They'll go straight for the 2nds in the fruit shop, while the "Working Families" want the biggest, first grade quality fruit.
Sorry to correct you, danman, but bogans don't buy homebrand – middleclass people with money do, and spend the money they save on interesting pursuits. Bogans waste a lot of money on pricey black label stuff. I agree with Crikey – Ainslie IGA is excellent – and prices are on par with Woollies Dickson SINCE Woollies got rid of their competition at the Dickson shops.
Ainslie IGA is a super supermarket. F#@* Coles and Woolies.
This is a complicated story called.. competition. Where there's more competition there is lower prices. Then there's business, where stores in more affluent suburbs get the higher priced range and normally higher priced goods in general.
Then you have reasons like rent.. exactly why you will find that stores like woolies at Tuggeranong is the most ancient store going around, because it's not worth them funding the refurb with the rent they pay for the place.
Dickson Woolies is vile. I don't know who goes there – I'll go anywhere but.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Dickson in possession of Woolworths is in need of a Coles.
Isn't it universally agreed that Wollies Dickson is the worst supermarket on earth. Bugger crossing Northbourne, I'd cross the Nullarbor to avoid it!
Please, you bogans, the term is 'oriented'.
What's bogan orientated? Like, home brand food? Geez, wake up, every bloody woolies has home brand, because home brand does pretty much everything (I know, I've worked at woolies). And, I'l bet, everybody buys at least one home-brand product, be it cloths to beans or something.
Wandered into Woolies Dickson on the weekend and found it to be a very 'bogan-oriented' range.
Ohoh please elaborate.
I don't think that Woolies in Dickson has a bogan oriented range. More so they have a range similar to most other Woolworths outlets in Australia.
If thats bogan, then thats your stance. I just think its very similar to most Wollworths around.
Sure if everything they stocked was black and gold and savings brand, then maybe that would indicate that they are targetting a lower income bracket, but the presence of this brand on their shelves, along with most other retail brands does not indicate to me that a supermarket is targetting a certain demographic.
Next you will be saying that Woolworths in Swinger Hill has a black tie policy.
Who would have thought a supermodel would be interested in grocery affairs
My bad; Naomi Robson.
I used to shop Woolies and Coles for the price alone. Now I shop Supabarn because they have more of what I want. I'm willing to fork out the extra few bucks a week for the extra class. Wandered into Woolies Dickson on the weekend and found it to be a very 'bogan-oriented' range.
Guess I'm not a bogan :-þ
Hmmm. Qbn is my local Coles/woolies, but I shop at Manuka Coles when I can, because they are much faster to prevent lines building up (Qbn seem to not notice shoppers lined up back into teh aisles, and Woolies is now as bad)
The things I routinely buy don't cost more at Manuka… Cocky seed, Harris coffee, tins of tomatoes, Uncle Toby's cereal… in fact they seem to bung on those price drop tickets more often at Manuka, and their meat bit is much better stocked, and they scrawl new prices on the meat throughout the day.
I actually quite like Coles' brand stuff, it has it all over Woolies in that regard.
The only problem with Manuka Coles is the hopeless layout, they didn't have to do it like that, with the deli right in the middle, and the cold aisles hidden away where people can't find them.
Naomi Campbell once exposed Manuka Coles as the pricyest in the country
Who would have thought a supermodel would be interested in grocery affairs?
"It costs more to ship produce to the outlying regions like Gungahlin :-)"
Or it could be danger money for the drivers using the sub-standard road infrastructure.
Gunghalin ALDI sells fruit and nut mix 1kg bag for more than Civic ALDI.
Myth Busted
It costs more to ship produce to the outlying regions like Gungahlin 🙂
D'ya reckon Pottsy shops at Queanbeyan?
Apparently Queanbeyan has the best valued groceries. My friends around Griffith, Red Hill etc shop there all the time.
Naomi Campbell once exposed Manuka Coles as the pricyest in the country, and not just on each line, but also cause they don't stock a lot of no-name products.

Paddling the Bywater Bay, North of Hood Canal Bridge (2-18-2012) --- Class III & IV. 3.5 miles roundtrip.
I got capsized today. It was an invaluable experience that I really needed. Now, I have better understanding about my boat and my abilty to paddle (need to improve paddling skill a lot). Weather was windy (20-30
kts) and forcasted cloudy. The trip was cancelled to some people but I was yearning for some paddling. Bob McBride and I decided to paddle the bay along the shore anyway. Two more paddlers (Keith and Linda) showed up. We launched our kayaks at the Shine Tidelands State Park around 1000. The water was choppy with some set of waves and some white caps in some spots. It was quite challenging to put on the spray skirt as the water was really choppy.
Bob and I mainly paddled along the shore. Linda was drifted to the middle of the bay (not sure if it was intentional). She managed to land on the shore safely. I was the last one coming to the shore, and met with a set of bigger waves with strong wind. I managed balancing my boat well until then. My boat turned toward trough and I could not paddle out of it (could not changed the boat heading). One wave flipped me right over that I did not react to brace or lean my boat (my lack of paddling skill). One more odd thing was that I did not even try to roll back, but conducted a wet exit. It would have been a golden opportuntiy to roll since the boat was heading right way for the right side roll.
Well, I am getting more fun out of kayaking. To paddle in a such condition (strong wind and waves), I will need a low profile boat and need to improve my various paddling skills.

Nine-time Australian Open champion Martina Hingis, stayed on course for making it to double digits at her favourite Grand Slam event as she and Indian ace Sania Mirza registered their 35th straight win together to advance to the finals of the Australian Open Women's Doubles.
Mirza and Hingis, the reigning Wimbledon and US Open champions, are yet to lose a match this year, winning titles in Brisbane and Sydney en route to playing here in Melbourne at the Australian Open, and are on an incredible winning run at present.
The duo were in exceptional form this evening, crushing the rather unlucky 13th seed Julia Goerges and Karolina Pliskova in straights 6-1, 6-0 to storm into the Australian Open final.
The match started on an even keel with Mirza an Pliskova holding serve and Hingis finding herself in deep trouble down 0-40 in her opening service game. The 'Swiss Miss' saw off those three break points and then another to eventually hold serve, and from that point on it was one way traffic as Mirza-Hingis rattled off 11 games in a row to seal a comfortable win.
Mirza served out the match, sealing it on her fourth match point after a late spate of errors in an otherwise perfect performance from the 29 year old Indian.
While Mirza will be searching for her maiden Australian Open Women's Doubles title, Hingis will be going after her fifth, though her last win here in the Women Doubles came way back in 2002, partnering fellow 'Spice Girl' Anna Kournikova.
Mirza-Hingis will face the no.7 seeds Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka of the Czech Republic in the Final. Mirza-Hingis have beaten the Czech duo in their only previous meeting en route to the title in Singapore last year.
Before that Mirza and Hingis will square off against each other in the Mixed Doubles Quarter-finals tomorrow with Hingis partnering Mirza's compatriot Leander Paes, while Mirza will be teaming up with Croatia's Ivan Dodig. Mirza and Dodig are the top seeds, while Hingis - Paes are unseeded despite winning three Grand Slams last year, including the Australian Open!
- 29/01/2016 12:31 - Mirza - Hingis crowned 2016 Australian Open Champions

You Could Not Like This Automotive If…
The BMW Bike 2020 can get dear as you climb the trim ladder, and its styling may be a bit too over the top for some. Those looking for all-wheel drive ought to look to the Subaru Impreza, while diesel or hybrid followers might want to store Chevy, Toyota, Kia and Hyundai.
What's New for 2019
For BMW Bike 2020 will get a light exterior improve and correct control knobs for the audio and heating/A/C system. The Sport trim is added to the coupe and sedan line, while Honda Sensing is made customary on all however the high-performance trims. The 6-speed handbook is dropped from the sedan and coupe with the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine.
BMW Bike 2020 Driving Impressions
Honda tells us its lengthy historical past in racing is what allows its production cars to journey and deal with a minimize above the competitors. Within the case of the BMW Bike 2020 sedan, coupe and hatchback, we'd must agree. The turbocharged 1.5-liter engine is both satisfying to drive and remarkably simple on gas. Even base fashions with the usually aspirated 2.Zero-liter engines have plenty of zip, especially when paired with the 6-speed guide. Unfortunately, for the bulk of sedans and coupes, a turbocharged engine means a constantly variable automated transmission (CVT) is the one possibility, and while Honda's CVT is among the finest we've tested, it is just not as sporty as driving a stick. If you need more power and better dealing with, you'll have to maneuver up to the Si or 306-horsepower Kind-R, each of which come only with a guide transmission. As for the rest of the BMW Bike 2020 line, the automobiles are undoubtedly more dialed-in than a Chevrolet Cruze, Toyota Corolla or Hyundai Elantra, however still not as adept at cornering as the Mazda3.
Favourite Options BMW Bike 2020
Normal on all but the high-performance models, the Honda Sensing suite of driver assists consists of forward-collision warning, lane-keeping help, adaptive cruise management with low-speed follow, road-departure mitigation and low-speed collision avoidance with emergency braking. Manual models don't embody low-speed follow and will deactivate around 20 mph if the driving force doesn't downshift to avoid stalling.
A feature increasingly important to smartphone-addicted drivers, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto allow the automobile's infotainment system to combine with a smartphone, giving the driver entry to navigation, music, apps and textual content messages without having to fumble with their cellphone.
BMW Bike 2020 Automobile Details
The BMW Bike 2020 inside is full of premium supplies and top-notch plastics. Ergonomics is amenable to drivers of all sizes while the big, easy-to-read infotainment contact display additionally serves as the control center for audio, Apple CarPlay and the optionally available navigation system. The BMW Bike 2020 boasts a few of the greatest inside volume among compact vehicles. Rear-seat legroom is impressive within the sedan, however beware of the large sills when getting into and exiting. At 15.1 cubic ft, the BMW Bike 2020 trunk is big. Hatchback BMW Bike 2020 boast 25.7 cubic ft of area with the rear seats up and some 20 additional cubic toes with them down.
Honda took possibilities when the company redesigned the BMW Bike 2020 and so they have paid off. The BMW Bike 2020 shape is daring and revolutionary, with an aggressive new entrance finish, a protracted, low and vast stance and unique C-shaped taillights. The BMW Bike 2020 sedan and coupe function elegant sloping rooflines, whereas the BMW Bike 2020 stands out with its bulbous rear end, high-mounted spoiler and the gaping fake vents on both facet of its rear bumper. Sport and Sport Touring hatchbacks could be spied through their center-mounted dual-exhaust shops, whereas the brand new Si boasts its own edgier exterior cosmetics. The Kind R gets a hood scoop, three exhaust pipes and a gargantuan rear spoiler.
Notable Standard Tools
The least costly BMW Bike 2020 sedan consists of Honda Sensing, automated local weather control, rearview digicam, folding rear seat, and a Four-speaker AM/FM audio system with USB port, Bluetooth connectivity and 5-inch display. The Sport adds aggressive exterior design parts and 7-inch show audio with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. We think most consumers will prefer stepping as much as no less than an EX, which includes an computerized transmission, the 1.5-liter engine, distant engine start, moonroof, 60/40-split-folding rear seat, LaneWatch side-view camera, 17-inch wheels, up to date audio with eight speakers (10 speakers within the coupe), an influence driver's seat, heated front seats and leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob.
Notable Non-obligatory Gear
As is the Honda method, options are bundled by trim, and not a la carte as with many opponents. Unique to the sedan line is the EX-L that provides leather-based seating surfaces, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and HomeLink. The top-of-the-line Touring brings 18-inch wheels, paddle shifters, LED headlights, rain-sensing wipers plus upgraded audio and navigation. Touring sedans alone obtain heated rear seats and a Four-way-power passenger seat.
Under the Hood
Two engines and two transmissions are used in the high-volume members of the BMW Bike 2020. LX and Sport sedans and coupes use a 158-horsepower 2.0-liter Four-cylinder obtainable with a 6-speed guide transmission or a superb CVT automated transmission. Sport hatchbacks and EX and better sedan and coupes get a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that's extra highly effective and environment friendly. This engine can be connected to a 6-speed guide transmission in the Sport hatchback, however all others come with a CVT automatic. Sport and Sport Touring Hatchbacks get an influence bump, whereas the BMW Bike 2020 pairs its 205-horsepower 1.5-liter turbo engine with a 6-speed guide as does the Kind R with its 306-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. All BMW Bike 2020 stay front-wheel drive, but while the baseline models burn common unleaded gasoline, the Si and Sort R require premium to exploit their full performance potential.

MoreLikeThis looks at the document frequency of all terms in the "this" text you provide and only selects a shortlist (up to maxQueryTerms) of the rarer words. As such, users (admin or otherwise) surrender precise control over what terms are used, hence my earlier point "does case really matter in this 'inexact' scenario?" and can you use the lower-case version of the field you said you already create?

Marketing tools must evolve to keep pace with change across industries and consumers. In 2018, the number of Instagram sponsored posts grew by 44 per cent. The volume of sponsored content presented to consumers is vast and showing no sign of slowing down as brands scramble to interact and engage with us. So how does a brand cut through the noise effectively and engage their audience?
Working with influencers daily we've observed the evolution of influencer marketing in the Polish market and for the past year we have been preparing a trends report. We drew several significant conclusions, but here are some highlights:
The Power of Storytelling
The ability to influence through storytelling is by no means a new development. Humans are programmed with the need to share and listen to stories. It is a unique attribute that has enabled our survival from hunter‐gatherers passing on our collective knowledge to become the dominant species. These behaviours continue to play out today. Brands must consider how to harness stories to emotionally connect with consumers through social media.
Influencers and bloggers are experts in storytelling and taking their audience on a journey. Swarovski's jewellery collections are inspired by stories so in turn, the brand allows their influencers to interpret these in the way they see fit. Swarovski gives them artistic freedom to prepare their own accompanying copy for the content they produce. As with all contracts there are simple ground rules to be followed, but beyond these we need to trust the influencers' judgment and tone of voice, respecting the reasons why they were chosen for collaboration in the first place.
Brands must consider the influencer's expertise and respect their approach when collaborating so as not to damage credibility. Partnering with experts whose values and messaging match closely to the brand's is central to this.
The Rise of the Micro Influencer
Owing to their loyal audience, authenticity and deeper engagement, micro‐influencers have shifted the dial of influencer marketing and increasingly enjoy more opportunities to collaborate with brands.
But what defines a micro influencer? Locally relevant content creators and experts who typically reach a much smaller audience than mega and macro influencers, but whose audiences are highly receptive, often owing to their personal interaction and accessibility. They are aspirational without feeling unattainable. What classes them as a micro influencer in terms of 'following' size depends on the local market.
However, after a year of research, experience shows us:
- With increasing attention being paid to micro influencers as a result of their audience resonance, micro influencers have steadily begun to challenge rate negotiations with brands. They no longer come free or simply with gifting.
Due to their lower reach, too much focus on micro influencers can weaken an influencer strategy as wide audience engagement is limited.
The Need for a Balanced Approach
So, it's essential to consider a balanced combination of mega, macro, medium and micro tier content creators when creating a robust campaign to ensure:
- Increasing prestige by demonstrating commitment from the biggest influencers
- Breadth of focus beyond category-specific influencers, e.g. working with a travel influencer on a beauty campaign broadens reach
- Each tier of influencer has an important role to play and should be embraced for effective collaborations with maximum impact.
Skechers followed these rules for their SS19 campaign and here's what happened. By engaging only 15 influencers, but from the various tiers the combined reach achieved was 2M. The result was above average engagement with storytelling and credibility achieved thanks to the medium and micro content creators.
The Shift in Vanity Metrics
A study published by the American Psychological Association in March 2019 showed an increase in depression and anxiety in those born after 1995. In part this has been linked to the rise of social media with a correlation made between further spikes from 2011, a year after Instagram launched.
Known as vanity metrics, the volume of likes, comments and shares in social media engagement have been blamed for compounding mental health issues like anxiety. They can allow users to easily and frequently compare their lives and self-worth against content creators. In a bid to reduce these social pressures and their impact on mental wellbeing, Instagram has begun to remove the visibility of the number of likes on social posts.
The decision is already causing a stir amongst influencers and brands who consider it a move that will negatively impact their efforts. Some communication experts believe it will weaken the power of those who have been profitably exploiting Instagram. It's early days as the initiative rolls out across various markets making the exact impact difficult to gauge. However, it will cause a step change in the way influencers and brands need to engage their audiences. Brands must consider the way their audiences prefer to engage and seek ways to collaborate with influencers that will result in more interaction, connection and conversation. Greater transparency and deeper engagement beyond simple clicks will be at the centre.
The dynamic pace of change demonstrated here proves that as brand and PR experts, we cannot afford to stay still. Aliganza will shortly publish THE INFLUENCER MARKETING TREND BOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2019 for the Polish market. Sign up to our newsletter and find out more at www.aliganza.pl.

A mirror symmetry in the aberrations between the left and right eyes has previously been found foveally, but while a similar symmetry for the peripheral visual field is likely, it has not been investigated. Nevertheless, the peripheral optical quality is often evaluated in only one eye, because it is more time efficient than analyzing the whole visual field of both eyes. This study investigates the correctness of such an approach by measuring the peripheral wavefront aberrations in both eyes of 22 subjects out to +/- 40 degrees horizontally. The largest aberrations (defocus, astigmatism, and coma) were found to be significantly correlated between the left and right eyes when comparing the same temporal or nasal angle. The slope of the regression line was close to +/- 1 (within 0.05) for these aberrations, with a negative slope for the horizontally odd aberrations, i.e. the left and right eyes are mirror symmetric. These findings justify that the average result, sampled in one of the two eyes of many subjects, can be generalized to the other eye as well.
People who lose their central vision have to rely on their peripheral vision for all visual tasks. The ability to resolve fine details in the periphery is reduced due to retinal limitations and the optical aberrations arising from the use of off-axis vision. The aim of this work is to improve vision by enhancing the image quality at the preferred retinal locus by means of correcting the optical errors. The focus of this thesis has been to measure and correct peripheral optical errors, as well as to evaluate their impact on resolution acuity in both normal and central visual field loss subjects.
In order to measure peripheral optics we employed a COAS HD VR open view aberrometer which is based on the Hartmann-Shack principle. Psychophysical methods were used to evaluate peripheral grating resolution acuity. We assessed the repeatability of the wavefront sensor in measuring the peripheral ocular aberrations. The symmetry of peripheral ocular aberrations between the left and right eyes was examined. The influence of age on peripheral ocular aberrations was also investigated. We evaluated peripheral vision with sphero-cylindrical correction in healthy eyes and performed the first adaptive optics aberration correction at the preferred retinal locus of a single central visual field loss subject.
We found that the aberrometer was repeatable and reliable in measuring peripheral ocular aberrations. There was mirror symmetry between the two eyes for most of the peripheral aberration coefficients. Age had a significant influence on peripheral ocular aberrations; there were larger amounts of higher-order aberrations in old eyes than in young eyes. Peripheral low contrast resolution acuity improved with peripheral refractive correction in subjects who had higher amounts of off-axis astigmatism. Finally, adaptive optics aberration correction improved both high and low contrast resolution acuity measured at the preferred retinal locus of the single low vision subject.
Because of their versatility, open view aberrometers will hopefully be a standard clinical instrument at low vision clinics as they allow for measurements to be rapidly performed at any location in the visual field. The existence of off-axis astigmatism should be better communicated within the low-vision rehabilitation community. Currently, the off-axis refractive errors can be corrected with conventional methods and we hope that the higher-order aberrations can also be corrected in a more realistic ways in the future.
In conclusion, this thesis has shown that peripheral visual function can be improved by optical correction. The findings of this thesis have broadened the knowledge of peripheral optical errors and their influence on vision.
