In the past 18 months, I've taught more than 60 classes and workshops for General Assembly covering social media, Google Analytics, WordPress blogging, digital marketing, marketing technology, and various other topics. One of the questions I get asked at the beginning of most of these sessions is, "Do I need my computer?"
There are 2 reasons that attendees ask this question. First, will they need their computer to actually complete any specific tasks? Second, will they need their computer to take notes? The first one is easy. The second question is a personal preference, but that preference comes with some science. If you take notes by typing, you're putting yourself at a disadvantage, because when you write something down, you remember it better.
The same type of science applies to when you are creating something new. Writing down your goals makes them "real". Writing someone a personal "Thank You" note really ups your relationship game. Writing down your tasks enables you to check them off one by one, bringing a Dave Ramsey-esque sense of accomplishment. Also, when you see a word written down, that sight evokes new thoughts about that word, its meaning to you, and its context. Finally, when you write something down, the very act of writing it down seals it in your memory 7X better than seeing it, hearing it, or typing it.
And, as you've probably guessed by now, the first step towards creating a great pitch for your business or startup is to write it down. Specifically, write down the following points:
- What is the problem your organization is solving?
- What is your solution to this problem?
- Who is your most ideal customer?
- What do you need to succeed in solving the problem?
It's vitally important for you, the founder & leader, to know and understand each of these points each in its most intimate detail. How else will you impart this knowledge to employee #1 or employee #100? It's your torch to carry, and you are the one who will communicate these answer to anyone and everyone.
An additional step that I find very helpful for this exercise is to answer each question in the form of, or at least in the length of, a tweet: 140 characters only. Einstein said, "If you cannot explain it simply, you do not understand it well enough." I agree wholeheartedly with Mr. Einstein. You should be able to explain what you do to a 5-year-old and your grandmother at the same time, and have both of them generally "get it."
That requires brevity and simplicity. It's not easy, but that's why we practice, and practice starts the first time you write it down.

Limited Early Bird Tickets at Ducky's ($20)
Student Price (Id Required) $10 Tickets at the Door ($25)
Sonya is part of the new breed of blues and soul musicians, always searching for new ways to revitalize the form. A triple threat, Sonya is a fiery guitar slinger, soulful blues belter and a songwriter of depth and craft beyond her years. She is joined by her husband Ryan Taylor (Gtr) to form a powerful guitar duo, backed with an excellent Boston band led by our old friend Bruce Bears (Toni Lynn Washington and Duke Robillard).
Here is what Brent Staeben, Artistic Director of Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival says of their 2017 appearance:
"Sonya Rae was really quite something. A tremendous lead backed up by a highly skilled band. She exceeded all my expectations and I'd have her back in a heart beat."
The couple has logged many miles in their young careers, from Boston to Austin then Nashville, where Sonya was signed by BMG Chrysalis. You can get a taste of their earlier incarnations in soul and country here.
The two have worked with or shared stage with artists ranging from Austin queen of soul, Tameca Jones, Gary Clark Jr, John Popper of Blues Traveler, John Medeski and Derrico Watson of the Victor Wooten Band and have made TV appearances on shows such as the the ABC series "Nashville". They are two of the finest young guitar players in the scene today and continue to provide audiences with high energy and soulful performances up and down the east coast and beyond.

How To Apply For A South Korean Tourist Visa With Your Philippines Passport
Please do note that the Visa Application Tips that I am posting are all for free. But if you need a little more assistance, I can give you a one-on-one travel coaching for a minimal fee-- it's a lot cheaper than getting it through a travel agency. Together, we can go through your documents, fill in what's missing, practice for the interview, and work together for you to get that visa!
Book an appointment now and learn more about it here!
Annyeonghasseyo! A LOT of Filipinos are addicted to Korean Dramas, Korean Pop, Korean Beauty Trends and all things korean. There's no better way to get a real feel of this korean addiction than going to Nami Island where Winter Sonata was shot, taste the authentic kimchi, samgyeopsal, and the famous hangover soup, as well as walk around Gyeongbokgung Palace in the traditional Hanbok and witness the changing of guards.
It's a lovely country with such a distinct culture and beautiful weather (4 seasons, nothing less!)-- no wonder it's a favorite destination for Filipinos. But first things first, we need to get that visa!
The process for South Korean Visa is pretty fast. You can process it at least two weeks before your flight, although it is not recommended. It's always better to process it at least one month before your flight to give you an allowance for any lapses on your requirements.
Note that since July 1, 2018, you can only course your Visa Application with an Accredited Travel Agency. This means you can no longer personally apply for it. I have compiled the list of Travel Agencies and the guide below.
1) Application Form which shall be filled out truthfully and legibly;
2) 1 Passport size colored photo attached to the application form;
3) Original Passport which should be valid for more than 6 months;
4) Photocopy of Passport Bio-page (page 2);
5) Original & Photocopy of valid visa/s and arrival stamps to OECD Members and Countries for the past 5 years, if applicable;
6) Original Personal Bank Certificate (must include account type, current balance, account opening date, ADB); and the (Read More: Our guide on SHOW MONEY)
Bank Statement (original or certified true copy of bank statements/passbook for the last 3 months)
NOTE: Always keep the receipt of the Bank Statement and Bank Certificate, they usually ask for this too.
Supporting documents are those that you should bring aside from the Primary Requirements. It is to prove your financial capacity to enter and stay at their country as well as your intention to return. The supporting documents varies on your status as follows:
1) For employees- Bring your original Certificate of Employment (must include applicant's position, date hired, compensation, office address, HR landline number (cell-phone number is not allowed), HR e-mail address), ITR(Income Tax Return) or Form 2316 Copy and copy of PRC Card or IBP Card, if applicable.
2) For business owners- Photocopy of Business Registration from SEC or DTI, Photocopy of Business Permit or Mayor's Permit, Photocopy of ITR (Income Tax Return) or Form 2316 and Copy of PRC Card or IBP Card if applicable.
3) For students- School Certificate (Original), Copy of School ID, Copy of Birth Certificate, Parents' Documents (Check status for the documents), and copy of parents' NSO Marriage Certificate.
4) Other Status- Please check the complete list of visa requirements here for more details.
Additional Requirements If You're Invited By A Korean National:
1) Invitation Letter, and
2) Photocopy of Inviter's Passport or Identification Card (authentication not required).
Additional Requirements If You're Invited By Company In Korea: 1) Invitation Letter, and
2) Photocopy of Korean Company Business Permit (authentication not required)
Read More: Our Guide on Refundable Flight Reservation
Read more: Our guide on Booking for Refundable Hotel Reservations
STEP 1: Complete ALL the requirements;
STEP 2: Fill out the application form legibly and truthfully (don't leave anything in blank. Write N/A if the item is not applicable to you);
STEP 3: Once you have everything ready, you may now find an Accredited Travel Agency to process your application. Note that personal applications are no longer allowed in the South Korean Embassy unless you are a spouse or child of a Korean national, a government employee on a business trip, an application with urgent humanitarian reasons, or a visa issuance number holder from Korea.
STEP 4: Coordinate with your chosen Travel Agency as to the release of your passport and hopefully it will be approved! :)
1. What are the Accredited Travel Agencies that process South Korean Tourist Visa Application?
As of now, there are 35 Travel Agencies that are accredited by them:
Casto Travel Philippines Inc.: Makati
2) How much is the visa processing fee for South Korea?
The visa itself is free of charge if you're staying for less than 60 days. For those staying for 60-90 days, a fee of 1,800 is required. However, the processing fee is required for the travel agency which could range from 500-2,000 Php.
3) How long is the processing time?
It depends. It's 3 working days for those with OECD visas and 5 working days for those without OECD visas.
4) Do I need to have a 'show money'?
Definitely as they are asking for a bank certificate and bank statement. However, it is not clear how much should be in your account. People say that Php 50,000 is more than sufficient. I actually know some people who have less than that but was still approved.
5) What if my visa gets denied?
You can re-apply after 6 months. (It's so long. I know)
6) Are there cases where I do not have to submit my ITR?
Yes. Frequent travellers who have travelled as tourist to OECD member countries within 5 years are exempted from submitting ITR.
7) Can I apply for a multiple entry visa?
Yes, but only in certain cases. If you have visited South Korea for 4 times over the last 2 years or more than 10 times in total (at least one of the visits must be within recent 2 years), then you can apply for a Multiple Entry Visa.
8) Are there any other cases?
YES! With your BDO Gold Credit Card and BPI Gold Credit Card, you can apply for a multiple entry visa which is valid for 3-5 years without the need of any financial documents. Promo is valid until December 31, 2019!
9) Do I need a visa to visit Jeju Island?
No need! With your Philippines passport, you can visit Jeju Island for up to thirty (30) days.
10) Do I need a travel insurance?
It is not mandatory but I always recommend getting one. You'll never know what will happen on your trip so getting one is a MUST for me. Mabuti na ang sigurado! :)
11) Is it advisable to avail of the services of a tour agency?
For me, it doesn't make any difference if you avail of their services. I got ALL my visas without their assistance. I did it all by myself! Aside from being very expensive, it doesn't guarantee the approval. It's always up to you-- the way you dress up, how confident you are, the documents you submitted, and the way you answered the interview questions that matters.
For more information, please visit the website of The Embassy of South Korea In The Philippines. Good luck on your visa application! Send my regards to Lee Min Ho if you happen to see him in South Korea. Haha!

Squarepusher is Tom Jenkinson, a man who has pushed the boundaries of electronic music as far as possible since its inception in 1995. The list of his work and its variety is impressive for any musician of any genre and with each release, the direction he takes is completely unpredictable which is exactly what's happened with "Damogen Furies" once again.

text: If you are like so many of us without electricity, how do you pass the time ? I thought that it was a good opportunity to organize. Pick a drawer that is easy to move to a light source. I chose to do my bedside tables…always full of special letters and notes from my children. My kid's drawers, however, are full do doll clothes and accessories. Spending some time laying out all of their outfits and then with our joint creativity, we began to make lots of other outfits that they wanted to dress their dolls in. Photographing the outfits allowed us to make a wonderful "look book" for use at any time…play dates with friends or runway fashion shows. Storing outfits in plastic food storage bags can assist you with remembering your new looks if you don't have a camera! Not only did this help pass the time, we had a blast designing some awesome outfits! While many of us were not in harms way with hurricane Sandy or perhaps mildly inconvenienced, please remember all those who were affected by this unprecedented storm.

What Makes a Game Classic? My Buddy Plays Mahjong
What makes a game classic? Part of the answer is longevity. Most people consider chess classic; we've played it for centuries. What about playing cards? Woodblock-printed cards appeared during China's Tang dynasty (618–907), while written rules for card games were first seen in15th-century Europe. Another characteristic of classic games is continued popularity. Games such as Monopoly in the 1930s and Scrabble during the 1950s broke sales records at first. But they continued to sell in the years that followed and do so today.

Rare! Weird! Collectible! A Great Donation of Board Games
The Strong's board game collection is unique in all the world. Unlike specialized collectors, the museum thinks broadly about what it acquires, striving to represent both ancient and modern examples, simple games and complex ones, and extremely typical editions and rare versions for the varieties of play they represent, as well as the cultures that inspired them. So I was delighted earlier this year when Don Lyon of Binghamton, New York, offered the museum the opportunity to select from his collection of board games dating from about 1950 to 2000.
Dungeons & Dragons: Innovative Role-playing Game Merits Hall of Fame Induction
In the 1970s, a group of gaming friends added the concept of role-playing to the previously straightforward play of war games. Gamers Gary Gygax and his associate Jeff Perrin published instructions for Chainmail, a medieval war game, in 1971. This game differed from all other published war games by including a fantasy supplement based in part on the increased cultural interest in the works of fantasy authors such as J.R.R. Tolkien and Robert E. Howard, author of the Conan series.
Sid Sackson: Game Player and Designer
The Strong not only collects playthings, but also acquires significant material related to the invention, manufacture, and use of those playthings. One of the museum's treasures is the collection of games, game prototypes, and archives from noted American game inventor and historian, Sid Sackson. Sackson (1920–2002) is revered among inventors, collectors, and serious players for his lifelong dedication to games and the gaming world.

To much of my surprise when I arrived that morning Katelyn could've really cared less about the rain and was just taking in the day! After roaming around the Royal Park Hotel I understood just why! This place was just AMAZING... from the conservatory where the ceremony was going to be held to this amazing entry way where the first look took place! As we started the ceremony the rain was still falling on the glass ceiling in the conservatory just setting the mood for this very romantic wedding. I have never been apart of a wedding though where there was just not a minute in the day where the rain broke and we were able to sneak outside so I pulled the two outside and said we HAVE to capture the rain! They were all for it and we capture some GORGEOUS rainy day wedding shots when the sun went down! So I hope you enjoy this rather large blog post (probably should have split into two but nahhh)

Our house probably was build in the 1840th and is situated in the middle of the small upper part of the village Castiel. Its surrounded by similar wooden houses of the same period of the 18th and 19th century. So you can find here a typical village of that region of the Swiss Alps.
We carefully renovated the house in 2011 completely, separating it in two apartements, adding two modern bathrooms established in the former cattle shed, installing a central heating system based on wood pellets and a warm water system based on solar power.
The character of the building was safed as much as possible so that the interior is almost completely original from the 19th century.
The position on the southslope of the Schanfigg-mountains and above the low land fog results in a fantastically sunny location all year round.

What was your situation?Liam
"I began the company three years before Steve came on board. It was a fledgling business with six staff and we got by on the smell of an oily rag. When Steve entered the fold, things began to take off. Now we are forty plus people.
"I love making new things which means every design starts from scratch, through to production. While we are always able to surprise and delight, it also means that we are in a constant state of new, which is hard."
"When I began Liam had been operating using MYOB, let's call the accounting 'relaxed'. Things needed to be tidied up, I knew how I wanted it, but I didn't necessarily know how to get there, and I struggled with the amount of work.
"We were also finding cash flow challenging and each season would pay for the next."

"When we spoke to Aimee, we discovered that she could anticipate our problems. We were impressed with this. We never saw her as an outsourcing offer, we saw her as a business partner."
"At first, we felt vulnerable opening up and letting someone in, but Aimee is easy to trust. She has grown processes and systems that work for us, that haven't constrained us and have allowed us to remain focused on what we do best."
How did IGC help you?Liam
"In Good Company brings another element of balance to the mix, an ability to dive in and make sense of data which then gives us the confidence to make decisions and grow."
"While we are financially conservative, Aimee didn't help us become less conservative, but gave us the ability to operate with reassurance. We have a lot of livelihoods in our hands and we wish to create an environment where our team and customers feel happy. Being good financially contributes greatly to that."
The relationship evolvedSteve
"When we began the relationship, In Good Company provided rudimentary book keeping and managed receivables. Progressively they took over payables and then the entire administration side of our business, production reporting, wages, bill of material, purchase orders and financial reporting."
"Due to the seasonality of fashion, there is a high volume of work four times a year. Working with IGC means we have a team of people who can deal with the influx and then reduce the work load where necessary."
Is IGC an innovative service provider?Liam
"Yes, in the way they have adapted with technology and their systems and processes. They provide in-house apps to speed up information flow and connection, and they are constantly changing and moving."
What challenges did you face that IGC helped you to manage?Steve
"A massive one has been understanding and refining our GP. This has given us measurable improvements year on year that has enabled the business to grow. We haven't got speed wobbles and Aimee's guidance has allowed us to keep our financials in a state where we have been able to grow without having to bring on external investors."
"The great thing is we haven't had to face a large challenge. IGC has enabled us to work around obstacles. They developed our financial knowledge and we now have a greater level of reporting and intelligence around our finance and administration."
What was the primary benefit of working with IGC?Liam
"They have allowed us to remain independent and supported our growth. In times of intense pressure, they have enabled us to not be worried about our finances and cash flow as we were able to trust completely that we were in someone's capable hands."
"We can put our attention into doing the things that we do best and know that they have our back."
What's next for you and IGC?Steve
"We would like to refine our targets around store profitability, refine the way we create, establish bench marks that the company can set and work to over the next 3-4 years.
"We want to work with IGC to educate our staff and give them a greater degree of knowledge around financing, budgets and P & L's. We believe this will allow us to become more sophisticated and operate at a higher level."
Any final comments?Steve "This has been a nice opportunity to take stock and, in all honesty, we don't thank her and appreciate what she brings to the business enough. A fair chunk of our success is because of her and her team.
"We have deliberately made it, so she can never get away. We have built a friendship with her. It's much more than a business arrangement, she's certainly a friend."
"We love you Aimee.
"We see Aimee as our CFO and everything she manages falls under that. We put Aimee on our organisational chart as the CFO. Our team sees IGC as our finance department, they just sit in a different building.
"We want to be continually excited by the opportunities that present themselves, to be challenged and to learn. We believe our relationship with In Good Company will help us achieve this."

fake skin
Stormy Stewart
who needs a face lift it is halloween. Narly faces are all the rage. So why not create one even narlier than it was before.
How to Make fake skin
- fake skin
8 TBSP flour
5 TBSP warm water
Regular or Halloween face makeup
Mix together the flour and water, this will result in a dough like mixture. Do not add the makeup into the mixture.
Use this mixture and with a bit of regular elmer's school glue it can be affixed to the face or body. Mold the dough or fake skin to desired effect and then let dry. Drying time is at least 10-15 minutes, However after adding the makeup and the fake blood or other gruesome effects the simple skin recipe come to life.
- Fake blood
2 bottle of light corn syrup
very hot water
1 tsp of liquid dish soap (Dawn
red food coloring
blue or green food coloring
In a small bowl combine the corn syrup and water (just add a little add a time till the correct consistency is achieved. Add your red food coloring, it can be made darker by adding the blue/green.
Store in the fridge. Prior to applying to the skin, apply cold cream. To use: drip, spray or smear as your ghoulish heart desires.....
OR For blood use blue liquid laundry starch with red food coloring added. It sticks well, it gives the coloration of blood, and dries with the consistency of real blood. Or a mixture of cocoa and water with food coloring, placed in squeeze bottles drips marvelously. Very gory.
For a simpler simulation of blood: mix catsup and face cream!

I need your ideas!
On starting a company in New York City
On September 25th, 2017, I wrote in a Facebook post that I was starting a company in New York City. 6 months later, I can confirm that that's the way I'm heading.
"If it's still in your mind it's worth taking the risk"
In these last six months though, I've hit more walls then I could ever imagine before, but I'm very grateful for every single hit as they all taught me some incredibly valuable lessons. It might sound cliché, but I can assure you it's been quite a journey…
"If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you"
So what happened? How am I so sure it's gonna happen this time? I figured some things out, and so did my parents. For the last year, I woke up every day thinking, "what can I do today to bring me closer to my goals?". It's an exercise in gratefulness. And if you do that for a year, you'll learn some things.
I've learned New York City is an essential part of my existence.
I've also learned I can actually do something there. Something I wasn't so sure about 2 years ago. By the connections, I've made there, and the feedback they have given me, I'm sure I can make the big city of New York my home.
I've learned to blame myself for everything that goes wrong in my life.
I've met some of the most amazing people I've ever known that respect me and that I respect back. Mutual respect is probably one of the most important values in my life. I can't function without it.
I've gained practical experience in Marketing, Social Media, Coliving, Running a business (long story), Real-Estate, Video Production, Web Design…
"The cost of not following your heart is spending the rest of your life wishing you had"
And a lot more where I would love to talk to you about in person ;) This article isn't supposed to be long, it's just to update you on what I've been up to. Right now, I've been back in Belgium for about a week. Something I swore by not to do this year, but something changed. My parents visited me in New York a few weeks ago, and they offered me the opportunity to start a business in the United States by sponsoring my investor visa. It's a long and complicated story, but it means that this time, I have a shot to really make it happen in New York.
Writing a business plan is my next step in this process, so if you have any ideas for me, hit me up!
About Louis De Keyser
Louis is a 20 year old, in the process of moving from Belgium to his dream city, New York. He was the founder and CEO of Tiny House Belgium, a Tiny House Design and Construction company that focused on promoting the idea of 'smaller living' and 'living life without a mortgage'. He sold his business in January 2017 to pursue his dream of moving to North-America. Right now, Louis lives in Toronto Canada. Stay up-to-date by signing up to my Messenger List!

This article was published on Oct 5, 2018, in the peer-reviewed Orthopedics and Rheumatology Open Access Journal.
Rheumatoid arthritis has no cure, so long term treatment is indicated. An individual's dietary choices greatly influence the progression of chronic autoimmune rheumatic diseases. This review shows that the plant-based diet has good scientific evidence of safety and efficacy for both prevention and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Studies have shown significant improvements in specific symptoms, such as number of tender joints, Ritchie's articular index, number of swollen joints, pain score, duration of morning stiffness, grip strength, and improved laboratory values such as sed rate (ESR), C-reactive protein, and rheumatic factor. Patients placed on a plant-based diet also have a beneficial shift in intestinal microbiota, which correlates with clinical improvement. With respect to prevention, those following a plant-based diet experience a reduction in risk of rheumatoid arthritis by about 50%.
RA patients should be advised that a plant-based diet that includes appropriate amounts of carbohydrate, especially dietary fiber, is important for maintaining the symbiosis of intestinal flora, which could be beneficial for preventing autoimmunity. As disease severity worsens, individuals with RA may experience functional decline that can impact dietary intake. New healthy plant-based convenience foods are a good choice for such patients.
Treatment with a plant-based diet is affordable for the patient, has no adverse reactions and no contraindications, and it can be combined with any of the standard treatments. For mild cases it may suffice as a monotherapy. For moderate and severe cases, it may serve as an adjunct, allowing dosage reductions thus lessening the costs and side effects.

May 4 (GMM) Monaco has denied it pays no fee to host the fabled street race in the Principality.
The race is commonly called F1's 'jewel in the crown', amid rumours its history and status meant it was the only event on the annual schedule that is charged no fee.
"That's just a rumour," Monaco's Prince Albert II told the FIA magazine Auto.
"Maybe the rights are less expensive than for other circuits, but there is a fee," he said.
The Prince's comments come after the now-ousted F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone recently admitted that he overcharged some race promoters.
But now it is confirmed that Ecclestone actually under-charged Monaco.
Prince Albert II said: "Bernie was well aware what Monaco brought to formula one — he said it himself, as do the sponsors and drivers. He always took care of us, but he still made us pay what he reckoned was the right amount."

matt & katie :: wedding film :: laurinburg, nc/
Katie and Matt's wedding day was one of those weddings where you could feel the emotion and excitement throughout the day. Watching Katie's sisters as they prepared her to walk down the aisle to Matt with such care and love was so sweet. You could tell they were preparing her for the day she had been so excitedly waiting for. The guys spent the afternoon getting ready as guys do which entailed a lot of joking around and picking on the groom! But when it came time for Katie and Matt to exchange gifts you could see that the anticipation of the day was becoming real and their reaction opening their gifts was priceless, and was only topped by their faces when they saw each other as Katie walked down the aisle.
Their ceremony was beautiful as the church was filled with loved ones watching the two become one. They had a lot personal touches and special moments.
The reception was fun filled with a live band, all of their close family and friends and a great evening for all! Everyone was so excited celebrating the new Mr and Mrs Gardner and we are so thankful we got to be a part of such a special night!
Check out their video to see for yourself!

After an extended hike or a longer stroll, there are few things better than a dunk in our swimming pond. It was cleared by hand and measures 15 meters long, 7.5 meters wide and up to 2.5 meters deep. A hygienic plastic foil serves as the bottom liner.
Our water preparation process is conducted entirely without chemicals. We instead purify the water naturally using UV-C light and a sponge filter. The immersion pump does have to run around the clock, but is inaudible. This technique allows us to use the valuable moisture for watering plants.
Algae on the side walls and the occasional frog who finds our pond a lovely place to abide only add to the atmosphere. The water is nearly crystal clear and invites guests to come relax. An underwater bench provides a handy place to sit and read while having a soak, although there's plenty of enjoyment to be had from simply looking out at the mountains and ocean. The pond is also big enough to allow for a few laps. There's a staircase to make it easier to get in and out of the water, although the algae can make it a bit slippery. Please remember to be cautious. We've got something for those who enjoy an outdoor shower as well: we've installed an outdoor shower directly next to the pond.

Back in the early 1990's, choreographer Dana Reitz and lighting designer Jennifer Tipton set up a laboratory at The Kitchen to investigate the "essential natures of movement and light." Both were theater veterans who had been frustrated by the obstacles to collaboration—while a solo dancer might rehearse in a barn, stage lighting took truckloads of equipment and hours of positioning to achieve its effects; the two elements rarely converged until the day or two before a show. Reitz and Tipton's research blossomed into movement/light workshops worldwide and into the dance Necessary Weather (1994), credited to Reitz, Tipton, and dancer Sara Rudner equally. Critics raved; the dance toured, then vanished. Sixteen years later, at the Baryshnikov Arts Center (May 13-15), it was back.
One hour long, no intermission, no music. Not much movement, either. Instead, shadow and light model the stage space into a travelogue suggesting elemental terrains: mountains, glaciers, deserts, ponds, glades. The dancers pass through these landscapes on solo pilgrimages. The feeling between them is of detachment, if not indifference; two interludes of perfunctory physical contact and a quasi soft-shoe routine do not change that impression. It's acts of light, not danced behavior, that make for moments of oblique human rapport: Reitz's silhouette looms against the backdrop becoming a storm cloud of turbulence as Rudner wanders within; the dancers come to rest at opposite edges of a broad pool of light—divided by space, joined in repose. They hold a straw hat; it morphs into a radiant chalice of gold.
If the lighting deepens our perception of the figures, the reverse is just as true. Without dancers moving across the stage, either minimally or not at all, we probably wouldn't perceive the contours and volumes conjured up by the lights. It's when the balance shifts and dancing attempts to take the expressive lead that the piece fails to cohere. Other than as noted above, the occasional bursts of dance-like movement are improvised (I learned by attending twice). Reitz doesn't cover ground in these solos. She stands, precise and contained; her arms weave like antennae bouncing brainwaves through the cosmos. Rudner, on the other hand, launches herself through space, decanting movement with liquid ease.
Anyone who's watched Reitz and Rudner over the years will have recognized their distinctive movement personas. But in this context—that is, in this revival—the dancers seem strapped into contrastive type (Reitz the analytical vs. Rudner the sensual; Reitz the cool vs. Rudner the impassioned) and the dancing seems arbitrary to the whole. Was it any different the first time around? I asked those who'd been there in 1994 if the choreography had changed. No one could say. It was the lighting they remembered most of all.

A Survey in Light
JUL-AUG 2018 | ArtSeen
At the entrance to Mary Corse: A Survey in Light at the Whitney Museum of American Art, a monitor plays White Light (1968), a film showing a young Mary Corse at work in her studio. In one scene, Corse holds a square of fluorescent tubing, moving it playfully in front of the camera. The square begins to glow, seemingly from within, without any apparent wires or electrical source.

If all the toy ads, over-the-top decorations (starting in October!), and incessant credit card use are bringing on the holiday blues, try creating some new holiday memories that are fueled by compassion, not commercialism. These simple traditions will not only let you share important values with your children, they will also lift your spirits. It's guaranteed: your kids will treasure these memories long after their once-coveted toys are broken or forgotten.
–Jenny Friedman, Executive Director
Make a Difference...
The holidays are a perfect time for memory making. Here are ways to get started.
1. Gather loved ones for a service project at home. You have so many options for helping those in need: assembling care kits, making sandwiches,downsizing rice and beans, tying no-sew fleece blankets, creating pet toys or decorating wooden Stars of Hope for communities struggling with disasters. If you include extended family, perhaps you can forgo your traditional gift exchange and have everyone pitch in to purchase the "ingredients" for your project.
2. Cultivate gratitude. The holidays are such a whirlwind, it helps to have excuses to pause and notice what matters. Create a gratitude jar or gratitude garden, or read stories that inspire thankfulness. In December, spend a few minutes each day with our Hunger Calendar.
3. Take each of your children on a kindness date. This is a great opportunity to talk individually with your kids about why you value kindness. You might buy flowers and deliver them with a holiday card to a children's hospital, care facility, or veteran's home. Or go toy shopping for Toys for Tots. After you donate your unwrapped gift at a drop-off location, stop for a cup of hot chocolate. Or bake cookies together and deliver them to neighbors or your local fire station or police department.
4. Host a holiday party centered around giving. Assemble card-making supplies and have your guests create holiday cards for our overseas troops, a care facility, or a children's hospital. Or ask each guest to bring a pair of socks, mittens or a hat to donate. Hang each donation on a line around your house as your guests arrive.
5. Create a DIY kindness calendar. Count down the days until Christmas, Hanukah or the winter solstice by doing one small act of kindness each day. Pick out colorful envelopes or small bags, one for each day, and hang them on a clothesline. Write a small act of kindness on cards, put one in each envelope/bag, then choose one to complete each day.
6. Give "kindness" gifts. Choose gifts that spread joy and compassion. Pick out big-hearted books for everyone on your list. Or give gifts that teach giving, like the For Purpose Kids Do Good Starter Kit, a service activity, or a cooperative game.
Talk About It...
Ask questions that encourage reflection from children.
What's most important to you about the holidays? Why?
What might we do to focus more on giving during the holidays?
How should you act if you receive a present you don't like? (Explain why gratitude matters.)
Name someone outside the family that you're grateful for and explain why. How might we let that person know? What do you wish someone would thank YOU for?
If you were to make a list of what you wanted to give, rather than what you wanted to get, what would be on the list?
What's the best gift you ever received?
Another tradition to consider: One night each week throughout the holidays, gather the family, make some popcorn, hot cocoa, or s'mores; light a fire (or candles); and cuddle in blankets while you read (and then talk about) a holiday tale or any big-hearted book from our collection. Picture books are treasures for any age, and can be used to start BIG conversations about kindness, gratitude, compassion and empathy -- values that have traditionally defined the holidays.
"The holiday season is the perfect time to reflect on our blessings and seek out ways to make life better for those around us."
– Terri Marshall, American writer

Post-election madness
Whatever party is in government there is never enough money to go round, says Hugh Pearman. If it were down to him, stage designers would run the economy.
Election night will be every bit as enjoyable as usual, here at the cutting edge of design criticism. My deep-sleep pattern will be pleasantly undisturbed by the agony and ecstasy going on out there. My vote for the Green Party will give me an unassailable moral superiority in the debriefings of the days to come. For now, I have woken up and silenced – with a single blow of the hand to the radio – John Humphries, James Naughtie and a legion of hung- over, dandruffy, pot-bellied politicians in bad suits. I know, I know – the men are even worse.
Anticipating tomorrow's grey dawn, let me be the first to welcome hundreds of Design Week readers back into the country. Here is a summary of what's been happening while you've been away on your suddenly urgent overseas fact-finding missions: nothing.
To those of you considering leaving for good as post-election ennui sets in – don't do it! We need your taxes. We need them very badly.
Everyone is agreed on one thing: there's no more money – for anything – and nor will there be in the foreseeable future. A short while before the election was called, I had a corking dinner with the merry pranksters down at the London Docklands Development Corporation. The LDDC was demob-happy – it will cease to exist soon – and most of the conversation was a variety of self flagellation. Exactly what had their great Thatcher/Heseltine experiment achieved in terms of design quality? Nothing, they shrieked, their voices cracking with hysteria. To cheer themselves up, the LDDC had wheeled on a free-thinking, intellectually proficient – and very fat – Tory economist from the
Government Office for London. The conversation got round to the various grants and tax breaks given to revive derelict Britain over the years. This roused the corpulent guest to speak: "Where's the population?" he demanded.
We looked around nervously. The wharves were deserted. He explained the obvious: without crazy government borrowing (forbidden by the Maastricht Treaty), what any British government can spend is only what it can raise in taxes. Unemployment can only be beaten down so far. Taxes can only be put up so much. We can't pull the Lottery stunt again. There's not much left to privatise. The only other way to get more money is to have an expanding population of working age – which we do not have. Therefore, the money spent by any British government on tackling dereliction is just the same money every year – sliced up in different ways and given different names (Single Regeneration Budget, anyone?). There is not, and will never be, enough money.
I found the solution to this impasse when I went to the National Theatre the other week to see Brecht's Caucasian Chalk Circle, for which the National has built itself a whole new theatre-in-the-round for 180 000. Not architecture, you see, but stage design. This demountable theatre, complete with dedicated acoustic and lighting rigs, can be put into store and brought out whenever the National needs it.
The play was a bit over-declamatory even by Brechtian standards, but I couldn't fault the design (by the Olivier's production manager Annie Gosney and her in-house team). It is the UK's only large in-the-round theatre and it was done on a wing and a prayer. It brought to mind the temporary timber and scaffolding theatres of Aldo Rossi and Tadao Ando, but much more besides. It reminded me of the stage-set interiors done in the burnt-out bit of Castle Howard for the filming of Brideshead Revisited in 1980 which are still there masquerading as the real thing. It made me think of the Sherlock Holmes Baker Street set in Manchester's Granadaland, which seems real even from six inches away, and the exhibition of proposals to rebuild Paternoster Square in the City of London back in the early Nineties, where one of the allegedly awful existing blocks was done-up inside so well, you thought: this is great, why knock it down?
On this day, then, with everyone wanting more public money and none available to give, only one design profession knows how to magic real, new spaces out of thin air. They have been refining their art and their science, making silk purses out of sow's ears, since Shakespeare's day. Stage designers, march from your burrows into the daylight! Your country needs you!

text: New Delhi, Jun 25 (ANI): What's better than starting your day with a cup of hot coffee? That doing so can help fight obesity and diabetes as well. A recent study has found that drinking a cup of coffee can stimulate 'brown fat', the body's own fat-fighting defenses, which can fight against obesity and diabetes. Published in the journal 'Scientific Reports', the study is one of the first to be carried out in humans to discover components that can have a direct effect on 'brown fat' functions, an important part of the human body, which plays a key role in how fast calories can be burnt into energy. The team used a thermal imaging technique to trace the body's brown fat reserves. The non-invasive technique helped the team to locate brown fat and assess its capacity to produce heat. "From our previous work, we knew that brown fat is mainly located in the neck region, so we were able to image someone straight after they had a drink to see if the brown fat got hotter," said Symonds.

On Tuesday September 13th we took a step into new territory, and launched the Walk On! Challenge; an online event that challenges you to make a commitment to Be Your Best Self, set a personal goal in motion and walk. The event is inspired by Bruce Lee's own Walk On! story, which we share below. You can participate from the comfort of your home, a beach, trail, park – basically anywhere you can walk. It's not about the distance you walk, it's about committing yourself to a personal goal and taking the all-important first step towards it. The challenge takes place on Saturday, October 22nd. This is something we've never done before, and are excited (with a few nervous butterflies) to hear your thoughts, and see you take a step towards a personal goal on October 22nd.
A goal for the Bruce Lee Foundation, is to not only be a beacon of motivation for the people our programs support, but also to give you the permission to chase your own goals. Achieving a personal goal, especially one you may have had on the back-burner for a long time or one that might seem impossible to achieve, takes dedication, time, willpower and support from those around you.
That's all well and good, but how do you get started? Below we share the first step Bruce Lee himself took that provided daily motivation for him to keep going during a tough time in his life; a step that reinforced for him that in every single day there is an opportunity to learn, dedicate yourself and take another step towards your ultimate goal. That first step for Bruce was to write it down! He didn't write down his overall goal per say, but this first step was the catalyst for a multitude of personal milestones that were still to come in his life. This is his Walk On! story.
The years between The Green Hornet and the Hong Kong films were often difficult for Bruce Lee. In Hollywood he wasn't getting offered the roles he felt he deserved, he struggled to support his family and injured his back very seriously. Bruce was told that he would never be able to participate in martial arts ever again.
One day he took a hold of one of his own business cards and wrote the phrase "Walk On" on the back. He bought a special stand for this card and kept it on his desk as a constant reminder to keep moving forward. With this as his personal mantra and motivation, Bruce Lee worked himself into the best shape of his life, wrote pages of notes on many different subjects and ideas, and further developed his art of Jeet Kune Do.
The rest…is history. When life gives you obstacles you must summon the courage and Walk On!
This is the actual business card Bruce kept on his desk as a visual reminder to keep going. Photo supplied courtesy of ® & © Bruce Lee Enterprises, LLC. All Rights Reserved. www.brucelee.com
Now, it's up to you to take that next step for yourself. Join walkers from all around the world, accept the Walk On! Challenge today and walk towards your goal on October 22nd.
Our Walk On! Challenge goal is to raise $10,000 during the campaign. That money will be invested into our programs, so that more Little Dragons can access martial arts training, BLF Scholars can be provided with mentoring and support throughout the school year and the development of a virtual Bruce Lee Action Museum can continue. It's free to participate in the challenge, and you'll have an opportunity to make a donation or become a fundraiser when you register. We've created a pledge "Commitment Card" for all participants so you can write down and share your goal, as well as put together some exclusive rewards just for fundraisers.

Patient's Guide for CSF Leak
At the Cedars-Sinai CSF Leak Program, we are dedicated to providing patients with the resources they need to regain their best quality of life. Here is some general information about getting care with our team:
Frequently Asked Questions
The brain and the spinal cord are surrounded by a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which is in a sac-like covering called the meninges. The thickest outer layer of the meninges is the dura. The brain normally floats in this fluid, which helps to cushion the brain from injury. A CSF leak happens when a tear or hole in the dura allows the fluid to leak out. When a CSF leak occurs, it reduces the fluid volume and pressure drops, a condition known as intracranial hypotension. When this occurs, the brain can sag, causing a headache that worsens when the body is in an upright position. CSF leak is the most common known cause of intracranial hypotension.
CSF leak can occur following medical procedures such as a lumbar puncture (spinal tap), epidural injections or spine surgery. In these situations, the condition usually is found quickly.
In other cases, the condition may occur spontaneously, usually due to an underlying weakness of the dura. CSF leaks often are the result of connective tissue disorders, which can cause this weakened dura.
Since many patients with this condition never seek medical care, or their symptoms go away without treatment, the prevalence of cerebrospinal fluid leaks is unknown. An emergency department study at Cedars-Sinai estimated that new spontaneous cases occur each year in at least 5 per 100,000 people. However, this sort of study tends to underestimate how often these cases occur, because it includes only a more severely affected group of patients.
Cerebrospinal fluid leaks may occur at any age, but is more common among people between the ages of 30 and 60, with most cases happening around 40 years old. CSF leaks occur more often in women than in men.
For many patients, symptoms go away without any specific treatment. Bed rest, increased hydration and caffeine intake are usually the initial course of treatment. An abdominal binder also may reduce headache pain by increasing fluid pressure in the head.
When these conservative measures don't work, the most common treatment is epidural blood patching, which may be done even when the specific location of the leak is unknown. In this procedure, some of the patient's blood is injected into the spinal canal outside the dura. The blood clots over the hole, stopping the leak. This may be performed several times.
Other options include epidural injections of fibrin glue or surgery at the precise location of the leak. Surgical interventions use sutures, clips, synthetic sealants or artificial materials to close the tear.
The CSF Leak Program is led by world-renowned neurosurgeon Wouter I. Schievink, MD, who also serves as director of microvascular neurosurgery at Cedars-Sinai. Schievink's expertise in intracranial hypotension and CSF leak has led to the development of highly specialized diagnostic, treatment and surgical options for patients.

Can the logic of $\sqrt[n]x = x^{1/n}$ be applied to tetration and other natural numbered hyperoperations greater than exponentiation, or, do reciprocals of positive integers as the second argument of a hyperoperation greater than exponentiation always equate to the root analog of that operation? Is there a general proof of this?
An example of what I mean is x tetrated to the one half and the super-square root of x being the same value, then extended to all positive integer denominators and all hyperoperations above exponentiation.

Third Street is dangerous to drive on because you can't see the lines between the lanes. The lanes south of Hudson are constantly moving on and off the MUNI tracks without warning.
Last night I was driving in the rain on Third Street. You cannot see any where the lanes begin and end at night in the rain. Your entire attention must be on where you are going, so you have no opportunity to look for pedestrians or bicycles or anything other than "where did my lane go?" This is too dangerous. We need white lines between the lanes that glow in the dark on Third Street.
This video shows how dangerous Third Street is in the day light.
1. Drivers of cars and bikes have no time to watch for pedestrians stepping out onto the street because attention has to be given to following the winding path of the road.
2. At night in the rain the street lanes are impossible to see. The raised ridge between the street and the MUNI line is not visible. This is the most dangerous street in town for everyone.
3. What will it take for reason to prevail? Must we sue over this too?
4. The raised platforms and street trees make it MORE DIFFICULT to see pedestrians and others waiting to cross.
