Joss Stone Joins HeadCount Benefit
Joss Stone is the latest addition to HeadCounts pre-election Get Out the Vote Party. As previously reported, the non-profit organization will host a party at New Yorks Highline Ballroom on November 3, the night before the 2008 general elections. Stone joins an already impressive mix of musicians, including Robert Randolph, ?uestlove, Stanton Moore, The Benevento-Russo Duo and The Disco Biscuits Marc Brownstein and Aron Magner, among others. RANA/American Babies guitarist Scott Metzger has been named the evenings musical director and will perform with a number of the evenings entertainers.
Stone will offer a number of songs, including the new composition Governmentalist.
The song is also available for free download at both www.HeadCount.org and www.JossStone.com. The track is also slated to appear on Stones next album, which will hit stores next year.
The U.S. election really does impact the entire world, Stone said in a statement. While
I cant vote in this country, I want to do what I can to inspire others, especially young voters, to make their voices heard. I can't think of a better way to release
'Governmentalist' than to partner with a group like HeadCount that actively encourages voting.'
We're excited to welcome Joss to the long list of musicians whove become
involved with HeadCount, said HeadCount co-chair Marc Brownstein. Speaking for myself and all the other musicians who are performing, I can tell you were all excited about sharing the stage with Joss.
The concert will be the final event of HeadCounts year-long campaign to
mobilize young voters. The entire evening will also be webcast through iclips.net.

Water body type 2017
The deep, big, lime-deficient highland area lake – 80 per cent have "good" status
Just in time for World Water Day on March 22, the German Environment Agency (UBA) has chosen the water type of the year 2017: the deep, big, lime-deficient highland area lake. This is good news in ecological terms: nearly 80 per cent of the lakes have "good" ecological potential according to the criteria of the EU Water Framework Directive. All 26 examples of this water body type in Germany are also reservoirs: the Leibis-Lichte Dam in Thuringia, the Muldenberg and Eibenstock dams in Saxony, Rappbode Dam in Saxony-Anhalt, Olef Dam in North Rhine-Westphalia, Grane Dam in Lower Saxony and the Förmitz dam in Bavaria.

Tuesday, February 12I'm Rocking My Peers, Puttin' Suckas In Fear.
The walk through the Dane County Courthouse to my wife's office takes you through a weapons screening station, and for a good reason: The courthouse is where they take criminals before they go to jail (little sneak peek into the Justice system for you, there). Furthermore, a lot of clientele happen to be armed round-the-clock, and it's in the best interest of every County employee that they can work a 9-5 shift without the constant fear that they're about to be capped by someone sick of paying child support.
Of course, when I went through weapons screening, I was ready. I had my belt, cell phone, keys and loose change at the ready, as to not hold up the line. I was making a final slap-check of my pockets when I realized, far too late, that I was carrying a knife.
When I was 17 years old I stole a buck knife from the hardware store I was working at. My dad, a longtime hunter/trapper/Theodore Roosevelt-ian supporter of the Strenuous Life, put it in my head at an early age that one should always have a buck knife at the ready-- not for self-defense or stabbing, but for the myriad other reasons one would need a blade. However, since 1999, the only thing I've ever really used it for was opening Christmas presents. Nonetheless, I procured one, and to this day usually carry it on me because it's part of my routine. If I were ever in a situation where I would need it to defend myself, I would assuredly slit my jugular by accident a nanosecond after flipping it open. Knives, for the most part, scare me.
"I have a knife," I loudly proclaimed to the officer running the metal detector.
Remember, I'm still kind of tipsy. I literally didn't know what else to do, and thought I was royally screwed no matter what I said. I put my hands up, sure that I was about to be wrestled to the ground and carted off to the nearest lockup (I'm assuming there would be one in the basement). Considering the day I was having, followed by the epiphany that I was probably going to quit my job, I saw no better way for this evening to conclude than by having my wife bail me out of jail with the money we were going to use to buy Christmas presents for our cats.
I was forgetting something, though. Weapons screeners don't give a damp shit about a buck knife, or anything else for that matter.
"Take it out of your pocket, put it in this plastic bag and you can get it back when you leave," mumbled the cop without so much as even making eye contact with me. I simultaneously felt relieved and terrified for my wife's day-to-day safety.
On the way home, the Missus and I talked about my snap decision to quit my job. Of course, she wasn't having it, and of course she was right. Sometimes in moments of vulnerability I tend to jump to the most ridiculous and all-encompassing solution as a way to give up thinking on the whole matter whatsoever. I'm a logical guy, but whiskey and sadness have an ability to make solid decision-making skills circle the drain a bit. I promised her I would take the time to think it over.
It had been a long day, full of emotional turmoil, pity, snap decisions, hard liquor, raving lunatics and museum exhibits. I needed to clear my mind in a more positive fashion. I went to the arcade.
There's this place in Monona called Rossi's Vintage Arcade & Pizzeria. For anyone over the age of 25 (or anyone who enjoys fun), it's a beautiful mecca of not only the classic pizza/arcade places of old, but for the kind of youthful nostalgia people like me long for and constantly try to capture. Their pizza is outstanding and the toys and decorations are one-of-a-kind artifacts of a Pop Culture-fueled childhood lived well. Most importantly, their one-of-a-kind arcade sports over 50 timeless (and fully operational) treasures of 80's and 90's video gaming history.
Quick Rossi's side-story: They make a 30-inch pizza there (for the cost of around $60 and well worth it), but they had to stop delivering it after discovering that the standard household door wasn't wide enough to get the pizza through without tilting it sideways. This place is a gift from Heaven.
The Missus and I went with our two closest friends, and I made the mistake of peeking into the arcade area before we started eating. This caused me to do something I haven't done since I was a kid: I found myself eating my pizza quickly in order to leave the table and play video games. It reminded me of the times I would go to Shakey's for a classmate's birthday party, shoveling as much Pepsi and mozzarella cheese into my maw as fast as possible so I could run off and play Skee-Ball for three hours straight. It was a feeling so removed from my current lifestyle that I embraced it with giddiness. I was really, genuinely happy to be there.
All games were a quarter. Not fifty cents, not a dollar, but a quarter. This meant that, with 20 bucks worth of change in my pocket, I could easily sample every game at least once. And for the most part, that's exactly what I did. The arcade area had no direct lighting, just lava lamps, Christmas lights and the colorful strobes from dozens of arcade cabinets chirping in unison. It even smelled like an old arcade; the humid lack of air conditioning, the carpeting saturated with decades of foot traffic, nicotine and popcorn butter. It was one of those experiences of youth I didn't think I'd ever be a part of again as an adult.
As an added bonus, the owner of the place looks and acts like he might be in the Witness Protection Program. In my opinion, there were one too many Italian Mafia artifacts on the wall to be a mere coincidence. But for the love of God, you didn't hear that from me. I'm not afraid I'll be murdered, I'm afraid I'll get blacklisted from Rossi's; a fate far worse than any death.
As my wife and friends scurried from machine to machine, I tried my luck with the Tempest machine. Tempest was a game that reached its popularity before my time, so I never really had the chance to get good at it. To put it another way, I sucked terribly, but I was having such a good time that it didn't matter in the least. In my vulnerable state, this little deviation put an incredible amount of things into perspective for me.
And that's when it hit me. Hard.
I'm 30 years old. I've been an adult for a long time; longer even than I should have been. I have been living with adult responsibilities and decisions since before I could even fully understand the magnitude of them. However, when things got too hard and depression started to make even the most inane and textbook decisions seem like alchemy, I always knew how to balance things out. I never slacked and I never shied away from difficult paths in life, but I always remembered that I needed to be patient and pace myself.
Much like looking at my reflection in the 1990's Family Room hours earlier, looking at my reflection in the Tempest machine made me remember that I like old video games. I like them a whole lot. I also remembered that I like Pop Culture nostalgia, and I like metal lunchboxes and Saturday morning cartoons. I like action figures and synthesized 80's music, and I like television and test patterns and monster movies and gumball machines. I like that I can experience all of this stuff through the Internet, and I also like that we live in a generation where a modern-day pizzeria can stay afloat simply by bringing all of this stuff back to me in exchange for my patronage.
I remembered that I forgot. Forgot all of this stuff. For the first nine months of 2012, I had forgotten who I was, and I had forgotten than I can always, always have it both ways. Most importantly, I remembered that I like writing funny stories for my friends, and there's no good reason I should quit if it makes me and everyone else I know happy. None.
Being an adult, turning 30 (now 31) and wearing a suit to work will only kill you if you allow it to define you, and for some reason, that's what I did for nearly all of 2012. The homeless guy was wrong; I wasn't a businessman. I was Ryan J. Zeinert, but if pretending to be one means that I can responsibly continue towing the line between stark adulthood and youthful happiness, then that was a challenge I was willing to accept. I wasn't going to quit my job; it was quitting stuff that got me into this mess in the first place, and it just ain't my style.
What a day.
In February of 2012, I stopped writing here (among other things) because I was turning 30 and thought I needed to evolve in certain ways in order to achieve my creative and personal goals. In reality, I stopped doing all the things that defined me, purging the things I used to enjoy because I thought they were hindering me. As a result, any future aspirations were washed away with frustration, anger and depression, and I didn't evolve a bit. My motives were pure, but after nearly a year of failure, I finally realized that I had made one of the biggest and most personally-neglectful decisions of my life.
I goofed up and I learned from it.
And at the end of the day, that's who I really am.
It's important to do the things you love. Even if they don't seem grown up, you can't be the guy in a suit if that isn't what makes you happy.
Now excuse me -- I need to go shopping for more Legos.
Now excuse me -- I need to go shopping for more Legos.
JESS - I find absolutely no inspiration whatsoever in the things specifically designed to inspire me. Everything else, though? RIGHT IN THE FEELS.
HOSS - We can have it both ways.
I was looking at Legos last week, and it surprised me how many of them were nearly 100% assembled upon purchase. Isn't there a place where I can just buy a giant bucket of assorted pieces, like back in the day?

Now I can finally get back.
Target has buckets of them. I would rather have the buckets than the limit-use ones that come with the Lego Star Wars. Both of my kids love them. Lego Friends got a bad rap from the feminists but my 9yr old daughter loves them, and it has been a great seller for them.

HOSS - Target? Rad! I got a Target gift card for my birthday, but I spent it all on stuff to clean my bathroom. THIS is precisely the sort of adult responsibilities I'm trying to abandon, here. Thanks for the heads-up.
I too carry a pocketknife every day, usually a beat-up Swiss Army knife but on dressier occasions a smaller Case knife (it doesn't flop around in the slacks so much). I also bought a monumentally useless 8" Bowie knife during a VW Beetle car show at a drag strip in Union Grove a few years back, the product of a tremendous hangover and the raging surge of testosterone that accompanies watching Bugs with wheelie bars. I insist upon using it to open presents whenever feasible.<< Home

Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour might have had a great time in the 1942 film, Road to Morocco, but they didn't go to the Mazagan Beach Resort. That's the most luxurious venue thus far on the MPN Poker Tour, which will return to Morocco on the first stop of 2018 (11-14 January). And someone is going to win a €1,500 package at the end of November thanks to our Route 32: Highway to Morocco promotion!

Have fun on the Highway to Morocco…
Team32Red Report (MPNPT Tallinn)
November 2, 2017 by Nick - 32Red Poker Manager
Filed under Featured, News
It's good to be back
This was the third visit of the MPN Poker Tour to Tallinn, and the reason for that certainly isn't mere convenience. It's a testament to Tallinn as both a tourist destination and a poker venue that, not only did the members of Team32Red have a great time in Estonia's capital, but a number of them had a great time for a second or even third year.
And herein lies the point of why we at 32Red strive to give our players maximum opportunities to qualify for these festivals – it's so much more than poker…
Old, New and Newer
The more you delve into Estonia as something other than just a place to fly to (or sail – the Finnish poker invasion, for instance, came by sea) to only play poker, the more impressive it becomes. As well as trivia nuggets that we might expect, such as the fact that Estonia has the highest collection of written folk songs in the world (around 133,000, in fact), we might be surprised to learn that the country is also the birthplace of Skype, or that Estonia was the first country in the world to adopt online voting (in 2005!).
This mix of traditional and modern is indicative of a happy medium that, as well as forming a successful foundation for society, is mirrored in the ideal way to approach poker. The most successful players tend nowadays to have a practical, realistic approach to the game – with such big fields there are certain pragmatic characteristics that are imperative to achieve a level of continued success. This is also borne out when we see the names of those who cashed in the various tournaments that made up the four-day poker extravaganza.
The Results
Let's get the facts and figures out of the way before moving on to what made Tallinn special…
With the total number of runners 534, and boosted by the flexibility of the action-focused re-entry (up to and including the beginning of Day 2!), the €150,000 guaranteed prize pool was eventually dwarfed by the actual amount generated by a frenzied field eager to make the most of the festival, finally settling at a massive €258,990. In fact, so great was the enthusiasm to play poker (the main Side Event, which spanned two days, also attracted a relatively large field) that at one point the cash machines in the Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel – a fantastic venue – ran out of cash.
It's standard for Day 1b, which falls on a Friday, to attract a lot more players than Day 1a. Locals tend to prefer to wait until the working week is over, while most overseas players arrive at a time that makes Day 1b a more practical option. So, it was no surprise to see the number 416 keep the more than capable organizing team on their toes when Friday arrived. But what did go against expectancy – with so many more players likely to produce a handful of runaway leaders – was that Maksims Aleksandrovs' impressive stack of almost a quarter of a million chips (the players started with 25,000) was still way behind the Day 1a leader, Terje Torstensen, who managed to see his total rise to 357,200!
Up there with a more than healthy 137,300 was Julie Whitworth, who couldn't be a better advert for what 32Red Poker is all about. More about Julie will follow…
The Winner
The eventual winner was Keimo Suominen of Finland. The top prize had been set at an attractively round sum of €50,000, but the wily Finn, after a marathon tournament, understandably did a deal with fellow finalist, Davis Modans, of Latvia, taking the slightly higher sum of €45,200, the title and the trophy by winning their heads-up encounter.
The Crowd Favourite
Gediminas Kareckas was an impressive 53rd for a tidy €1,245 and Mykhailo Lohvinenko finished 42nd for €1,320. However, the 'story' of the week, and topping the Team32Red performances, was the aforementioned Julie Whitworth, finishing what can be described – even in the context of unpredictability that is tournament poker – as un unlucky 13th for €2,590. We have to keep things in perspective and remind ourselves that this is a welcome cash, but as a player succeeds in surviving deeper and deeper into a tournament to the point that the final table – and with it the prospect of a very big win – is literally within touching range, then Julie deserves some commiserations of sorts alongside our congratulations. This is her fifth(!) Main Event cash on the MPN Poker Tour, but one made all the more special when we consider the circumstances that led her to Tallinn. The previous installment had been at Manchester, literally down the road from where Julie lives. But, ironically, she was to miss her much awaited 'home' event due to being hospitalized just as the festival was about to start. 32Red proposed 'rolling over' her package to Tallinn, which promised to be a trip to remember and, with more irony, she barely got to enjoy any of the non-poker fun and frolics and camaraderie that make these events – especially as a Team32Red member! – so memorable because she was too busy playing like a demon at the tables.
Thanks to a number of good and brave decisions and the usual helping of what Fate has waiting in the wings, she more than just survived Day 1 and, come Day 2, it was more of the same.
Julie turned up for the Final Day with over a million chips, sitting more than comfortably in fourth place and – even in this uncertain poker world – heading for the Final Table… Unfortunately, Fate did indeed have other ideas and, a comeback from cruelly timed reverses notwithstanding, she went out in 13th, her sizable and vocal crowd of supporters on the rail sharing her lack of fortune. But when the dust and adrenaline have settled, this will no doubt be a great memory for Julie, who did 32Red proud…
Meanwhile, Diego Domingo Catalan and Angus Dunnington (who had been going for his 3rd consecutive Main Event cash) battled it out to the last two tables of the 2-day, 237-runner Estonia Cup. This event proved to be a victim of its own success when Day 1 went on for so long that the survivors didn't have to wait too long for breakfast…
Team32Red favourites, Phill Huxley and partner Fabienne Freymadl, showed that an actual connection can help when sharing a stack by coming 4th in the hotly contested (and very difficult to adjust to) Doubles tournament, and Joel Holmberg cut a path through the jungle that was the Bounty tournament to take 7th.
We'll come back to a bit more poker later, but here's what else happened in Tallinn…
When in Tallinn, do as the Romans did…
Before playing in an international poker tournament we should spend an evening relaxing in a spa, with a few drinks and snacks, having a sauna or a massage and generally indulging ourselves with whatever level of pampering that's on offer. This is the norm, isn't it? Well, no, it isn't, but a number of Team32Red players accepted the invitation to enjoy such delights on the first night of the festival, and a good time was had by all. The next time you roll up to a bog-standard poker night at your local casino, imagine arriving at the table the day after being a guest at a luxurious spa…
Poker Players' Need for Speed
So, you're at a poker festival and the nerves are starting to kick in – the adrenaline is building to a climactic high because you're sitting there, hands on the wheel, wiping the visor on your helmet, sounds are magnified, deafening, from your breathing to your engine and those around you… and a couple of seconds later you approach the first sharp corner at breakneck speed and the race is on! Yes – you're a guest at another special event for Team32Red players on the MPN Poker Tour: it's time for an afternoon of go-karting.
A 30+ strong team attended what was a very exciting, exhilarating day, albeit one that saw a few crashes and collisions, with 32Red Poker Manager, Nick Diaz, becoming the ultimate champion after winning the Grand Final in masterly style.
Terviseks! Cheers!
After a spa experience and the adrenaline rush of go-kart racing came yet another special event to which our players were invited – beer tasting (obviously). A perfect way to wind down following the emotional, nerve-wracking rollercoaster that is tournament poker, the night provided not only the sampling of a variety of beers, but the introduction of a couple of iPhone games afforded the players' competitive spirit an outing with a difference. Phill Huxley, for example, showed that his skills certainly aren't limited to the poker felt by winning the Tap War event…
Memorable Team32Red Poker (and non-poker) Moments
There's so much more to poker than the hands themselves, of course, but it's also very often true that the outcome of a hand can determine someone's fate. Just one card, right at the death of a hand, might at the same time sound the death knell of your tournament.
And sometimes Fate can deal out the cards in the most cruel order possible… When holding 66 and seeing the Flop bring 672, Artur Yarovoy must have been doing the usual 'control' tricks to curb any sign of enthusiasm. Finding himself up against KK, the only card he didn't want to see appear was a King which – surprise, surprise – appeared on the river.
Much of the time when these tournaments get underway, players aren't too involved and instead take time to settle in – sorting out their chips, their phones and multi-media devices, chair, drink… for the first orbit or so it's often a case of getting ready for the possibly long journey ahead. For MPNPT regular, Deccy Rice, on the other hand, the event began quite differently. Having already added to his package the night before by winning an extra seat in a satellite, he found himself, on the very first hand, looking down at his hole cards to see AA. When this happens right at the beginning, with the blinds – and therefore a typical pot – being so tiny relative to stack size, nothing exciting happens but, bizarrely, Deccy doubled up. Alas, this certainly isn't a guarantee that things will continue to go so well, and he didn't survive Day 1a. Undeterred, he won another seat in another satellite(!), but sometimes it's just not meant to be…
Daniel Leal might be an excellent poker player, but this is what happened when he visited another kind of gaming table. The Olympic casino, to get players in to the spirit of all things gaming (not that poker players tend to need any help…), gives everyone, on joining, a free €5 chip that they can wager on whatever game they like. Daniel strolled over to the nearest roulette table and didn't bother breaking his freebie into smaller denomination chips, opting instead to simply bet it on a single number. Of course, being Team32Red to the core, he put it on 32 (red) and, of course, Fate having a sense of humour, the ball eventually decided to settle on number … 32.
A great time was had…
Here are a few comments from our players in Tallinn. Some are veritable veterans of the Tour, others were making their first (and hopefully not last) trip to a live festival. But they all have one thing in common – a very enjoyable Team32Red experience.
Uriy Ivanov (who won his place via a Route 32: Flip Flop to Tallinn promo): "I really liked the 32Red approach, the VIP events, and the goodwill of the 32Red team"
Phill Huxley: "I won a package in one of the 32Red promotions… 4th place in the Doubles with my girlfriend (I busted us!). First place in the Tap War competition! The social activities were top notch"
Richard Ward: "Had a fantastic time in Tallinn… always great hosts and we get really well looked after"
Stanislav Ivanov: "This time I had liked everything even more than last time! Very good organization"
Dmytry Nesin: "I won a package in a satellite at 32Red a few days before the start of the tournament. The tournament format is perfect!"

Sun, sea, luxury and big money poker – that's what awaits you at the palatial Mazagan Beach Resort, Morocco, which will host the MPN Poker Tour for a second time (18-21 January).

Meanwhile, the Route 32 and Chasing Redbacks promotions offer additional ways to get your hands on €1,500 packages and €550 Main Event seats, and a royal flush in the nightly, fun-filled €300 Guaranteed (€3 rebuy) Flush Royale tournament is worth a €1,500 package!
The package includes entry into the 6,000 MAD Main Event, entry into the 1,100 MAD Side Event, accommodation (including breakfast) for four nights at the Mazagan Beach Resort for you and a guest, €250 towards travel and expenses and a Players Welcome Party invite.

3 businesses in Avon damaged by fire
Avon, N.Y. (WHAM) - Three businesses were damaged in a fire in Avon Friday morning.
The businesses all share one building on East Main Street.
A tattoo shop upstairs was heavily damaged, while a martial arts academy and liquor store both have smoke damage.
Rick Doudt, the owner of the liquor store, said he was doing paperwork when a couple of men nearby came in and told him that the building was on fire.
"I called 911, but I was about five calls too late," Doudt said. "The village of Avon Police and Fire Departments were here before I even knew what was going on."
No one was injured. There is no official cause that has been determined in the fire.

Discussion in 'Wii - Hacking' started by CJL18, Apr 13, 2007.
has nayone done this, or has anyone sent someone there wii to get it modded?
i sent mine in to get modded from modchipman
but there are a lot of members in this forum that would mod your wii for cheaper
how long did it take to get your system back form modchipman?
I attempted to chip mine last week but failed miserably. Found a guy on the net, consoleworkshop.co.uk. Have sent my Wii to him and he said he has repaired it and fitted a new chip as I damaged the original. Just waiting for him to send it back. Fast and friendly service with excellent e-mail comms. Did the work, tested it and gave me a quote. Told me he would put it back the way it was if I didn't want to go ahead with it. Total cost, £75.00 for the repairs and the new chip.
i have an extra modded wii with a wiinja DX chip let me know if you are interested.

Hello readers.
I have received questions from you regarding my envelope forex system and I am glad you like it. I'll try to help you with this article.
Firstly if you have doubt as to setting envelopes using high or low, it is of no problem to use median price on it. If you are in doubt, apply using median price for the EUR/USD daily chart.
Look at the example on the EUR/USD and my settings for the envelope in this case. In this particular trend, it is really difficult to see where to buy at the bottom of the envelopes. No good candlestick or high volatility. I do prefer to wait for a better candlestick confirmation above the 21 Ema like the ones in the circles. Note that after coming from the bottom of the envelope, the price cuts the 21 Ema and starts to generate good candlestick confirmations rejecting lower prices. That is my signal to buy in this example inside the circled areas. The target for me is when the price touches the top of the envelope or the bottom if you are in a bearish trend. Alternatively you can trail your stop loss each time you reach 1x your initial risk and let the trade run.
The higher degree of an uptrend, the better the signals. For this case which is a bullish trend, you need to look to buy in at the bottom only! Never at the top of the envelope. Notice the 21 Ema serves as a good support most of the time.
The perfect signal that I like to trade is the following that you can see in the chart, the blue and the yellow circles around the 21 Ema slightly becoming bullish after a bearish correction. For me that is a golden setup worth the risk.
As many of you asked, the 21 Ema can serve you to identify the trend too.
In another example, the CAD/CHF :
A perfect example of a bearish trend and a well developed envelope set.
The red arrows are the sell signal. In this example, the candlestick at the top of the envelope channel allows us to trade. The candlesticks show rejection of higher levels around the upper band of envelope and produced good sell signals. As well as the signals below the 21 Ema which we discussed in the EUR/USD example above and we have here too but for the down side this time.
The green arrows show good entry points. The shape of the candlesticks can give you a clue if it is possible. The bigger the candle's shadow, the better the pattern.
Following the trend is always the better trade.
Now give a look to the same example above cad/chf with envelopes set to median price:
See? It fits but not as good as setting the envelopes to lower price. Adjust it until you feel comfortable with. This is not an indispensable rule.
Now some settings for the major instruments you asked me for and settings I am using today on Metatrader4:
Apply the price of the EMA as the same as the Envelopes. As long as you can see the envelopes fit well in the chart that you feel good it's ok. Another clue is to look if your EMA is working good as a support or resistance is observing if the price reacts to it.
Hope I was of help!

Ankle-Foot Orthosis
An Ankle-Foot Orthosis (AFO) is a brace that incorporates a custom made orthotic, into a brace that extends above your Ankle joint. This allows for full control of motion at both the Subtalar joint and Ankle Joint. In most instances, these braces are covered by insurance.
Joint motion is generally controlled by muscles and tendons. If those muscles loose their mechanical strength, from disease or long standing deformity, then motion of the joints are uncontrolled. This can lead to improper gait (ability to walk) and will place increased pressure on the joints, which can lead to degenerative arthritis.
Conditions Where AFOs are Beneficial
- Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction (Adult Flatfoot)
- End-Stage Arthritis
- Drop Foot
- Neuromuscular Disorders
If muscular control of foot motion is compromised, an AFO can hold the foot and ankle in the proper position, removing strain from the muscles and joints. If arthritis has reached it's final stage, an AFO can keep the joint from moving, which will substantially decrease pain.
Sometimes, it is important to limit foot motion, but still advantageous to allow the ankle to have full motion. In these instances, an Articulating AFO is prescribed by your podiatrist. This prevents the ankle from becoming stiff, from disuse, while still providing the support needed for the foot.
Dr. McSpadden participated in research involving the use of an Articulating AFO with Physical Therapy, as conservative treatment for Adult Acquired Flatfoot (PTTD). The research poster won 2nd place prize at the Annual Scientific Conference for the American College of Foot & Ankle Surgeons in 2010. Read more about their research in this review article.

The sights, the sounds, and the colors of the Caribbean fill the Cerritos Performing Arts Center as 3-D Theatricals treats its audiences to Lynn Ahrens' and Stephen Flaherty's tale of star-crossed island lovers, the magical musical Once On This Island.
Based on the novel My Love, My Love: or The Peasant Girl, Rosa Guy's tropical adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid, Once On This Island transforms Andersen's sea sprite into T'Moune (Leah Stewart), orphaned as a young child and raised by Tonton Julian (Keith Jefferson) and his wife Mama Euralie (Erika Bowman) as their own on an island called Jewel Of The Antilles.
Colonized by the French, Jewel Of The Antilles now finds its population split between light-skinned, mixed-raced descendents of frisky plantation owners and their female slaves, chief among them a handsome young playboy named Daniel Beauxhomme (Cooper Howell), and darker-complexioned natives who revere gods and goddesses like Demon of Death Papa Ge (Edred Utomi), Goddess of Love Eruzlie (Daebreon Poiema), God of Water Agwe (Jay Donnell), and Mother of the Earth Asaka (Dominique Kent).
When Agwe causes a recklessly-driving Daniel to crash his car one dark and stormy night, it's up to T'Moune to nurse him back to health and teach him the meaning of true love, albeit one forbidden by generations of island prejudice and tradition.
Nominated for eight Tony Awards in its 1990 Broadway debut, Once On This Island has since become a high school theater department favorite but hasn't had a SoCal professional revival in a dozen years, just one reason to celebrate its 3-D Theatricals return.
As anyone who's seen Ragtime, Seussical, A Man Of No Importance, Lucky Stiff, or Dessa Rose can tell you, lyricist Flaherty and lyricist Ahrens never fail to reinvent themselves, and in Once On This Island, their tropical melodies, rhythms, and vernacular prove positively intoxicating.
Book writer Ahrens tells T'Moune's story almost entirely through song, and what a bunch of beauties she and Flaherty have created, from the exquisite "Forever Yours," "The Human Heart," and "Some Girls" to the calypso-flavored "Mama Will Provide," "Why We Tell The Story," and "We Dance."
And speaking of dance, choreographer Yusuf Nasir gives us one spectacular production number after another, and barefoot to boot, adding up to a ninety-minute song-and-dance mix that never fails to mesmerize, (The flashbacking "The Sad Tale Of The Beauxhommes" is a fanciful standout.)
Adding to the magic is a brand spanking new production design by some of SoCal's most gifted stage artists, including Stephen Gifford and Nephi Garcia, whose stunning revolving tropical island set (Gifford's) and vibrantly-hued native costumes (Garcia's) look even more eye-catching thanks to Jean-Yves Tessier's strikingly saturated lighting design.
Rufus Bonds II directs masterfully, and by nearly doubling the original cast to a grand total of twenty, 3-D Theatricals has taken a chamber musical best suited to an intimate setting and transformed it into a bona fide Broadway-scale dazzler.
Performances could not be finer, beginning with Stewart's absolutely captivating star turn as T'Moune, revealing sweetness and depth, singing quite gloriously, and showing off solo dance sizzle in "T'Moune's Dance."
Dynamic duo Bowman and Jefferson bring maternal passion and paternal fire to Mama Eulalie and Tonton Julian, and triple-threat Howell once again combines leading man appeal with edge.
As for those gods and goddesses, Utomi makes death look sexy, Poiema turns Erzulie into a tropical Deena Jones, Kent gives Asaka enough earth-mother warmth to heat the coldest heart, and Donnell's Agwe is as ocean-deep as a water god should be.
Dance captain Jenna Gillespie and David T. Morris make terrific double impressions as both storytellers and as Andrea and Armand, with fellow storytellers Christopher C. Fishburne, Nic Hodges, Gabrielle Jackson, Mia L. Jones, Jade Payton, and Eran Scoggins providing all-around sensational song-and-dance support.
Kayla Joy smith is an adorable Little T' Moune, with Kennedy Nibbe, Mackenzie Nibbe, and Inaya Reddick adding their own little girl charms.
Cast vocals could not be finer under Corey Hirsch's expert musical direction, and with Hirsch holding the baton, the Once On This Island orchestra of six (provided by Los Angeles Musicians Collective) sound like twice that many, thanks in part to Julie Ferrin's pitch-perfect sound design.
Additional production design kudos go to Peter Herman (wigs), Gretchen Morales (props), and Andrew Nagy (projections).
Terry Hanrahan is production stage manager and David Jordan Nestor is assistant stage manager. Jene Roach is technical director.
In programming a musical known best by Broadway buffs (and parents of kids who've performed it in school), 3-D Theatricals is taking a chance on the largely unfamiliar, a gamble that pays off and then some. Guaranteed to get you up on your feet for its celebratory grand finale, Once On This Island is as crowd-pleasing a tropical treat as you're likely to see all year.

The Brazilian Neymar could arrive in Paris in the coming hours, according to a source close to the file, and be presented Friday or Saturday to the media and supporters of the PSG After the farewell to his teammates Barça and after a mysterious stopover in Porto.
The presentation of the player by the French club will take place "probably this weekend", revealed Wagner Ribeiro, adviser of Neymar, present with him and his father at the airport of Barcelona in the early afternoon, before The departure for Porto.
A calendar validated by a Parisian source indicating an expected arrival of the player and his entourage at midday on Thursday.
The expected epilog of a soap opera that lasts for two weeks seems close: the 222 million euros of clause liberating Brazilian contract with Barca should be settled at the Catalan club. An astronomical sum that explores the current record of 105 million euros, excluding bonuses, spent in the summer of 2016 for the transfer of Paul Pogba from Juventus to Turin to Manchester United. "We're going to pay the clause, and from the moment I got the green light on August 1, I went to Paris and brought back a proposal from the PSG to pay the clause, which will be done in The next few hours, "Wagner Ribeiro added.
In a statement, Barça had insisted shortly on the fact that the surrender clause "should be paid in full".
The day had begun with the farewell of the player to his teammates. "Neymar came to train as planned and communicated to his teammates that he was going," a spokesman for the club told AFP. The coach (Ernesto Valverde) gave him permission to Not to train and to look after his future. "
The 25-year-old striker stayed for half an hour at the training center, first going into the coach's office to notify him of his departure and then to the locker room where he took leave of his teammates a By one, according to the account of the Catalan daily newspaper Sport, before going to the airport where it was waiting for a private flight to Porto.
'I'll miss you guy!'
The icon Lionel Messi addressed him a message on Instagram: "It has been a huge pleasure to spend these years with you, + Amigo + I wish you a lot of luck in this new stage of your life. -he.
"Thank you, my brother, you will miss me," replied NJR, endorsing his departure for the first time in a roundabout way.
Announced in London by several media, he actually went on board his private plane in Porto on Wednesday afternoon, with some media referring to a possible medical visit to the city of northern Portugal.
The PSG for its part given in the implication. When the Parisian side Thomas Meunier tweeted "Good then … this scoop", the PSG replied with the same symbol, then writing: "We wait for a little more?", With the symbol of an hourglass accompanied by "Soon" (soon).
'Financial Doping'
The soap opera is no longer a reversal. The Spanish League president, Javier Tebas, is threatening to block the transfer by refusing to collect the money from the surrender clause, which must be deposited at his headquarters so that the player is released from his contract.
"We do not accept this money from a club such as the PSG that violates the standards and laws of financial fair play (FPF)," he said Wednesday to the sports daily As.
Tebas accuses the French club of "financial doping" by receiving "economic injections from countries that offer players to their supporters by withdrawing them to others".
UEFA has told AFP that it will study the details of the transfer to ensure that this is done in accordance with the framework of the FPS.
The arrival of Neymar in Barcelona, in 2013, from Santos (mythical club of Pelé), had already shed in controversy. His transfer, the final amount of which remains unclear, has been the subject of several judicial inquiries.
The Spanish club was convicted of having camouflaged to the fisc some of the costs of the transaction. He will soon face a new trial for fraud and corruption between individuals, during which Neymar and his father, Neymar Sr., will also be tried.
Barça has also frozen a sum of 26 million euros from a notary, who was due to return to the Neymar clan this summer under the terms of the contract extension signed last year, until … 2021.

AmCham Board Directors met with the representatives of the Ministry of International Economic Integration and Reforms, to speak in the name of the businesses about the concerns and suggestions with regards to the current Armenian economic situation.
The first question raised was the Armenian Government's position in the country's transition to the EEU and the level of awareness of the businesses about the changes in the legislation.
Vache Gabrielyan introduced the process of the work in the ministry and how the information is being processed. He explained that the information received by their office is distributed to the appropriate ministries who are in turn are responsible for sharing the info among the sectoral representatives to eventually have the business community updated on the changes. He explained that the information must be distributed but not necessarily analyzed for the businesses.
AmCham requested the Ministry representatives include AmCham in the list of the organizations that the ministry secretariat informs about any changes.
AmCham also requested the ministry to provide AmCham member organizations with the opportunity of hearing from one of their experts how the legislations and the amendments should be treated in order to have them processed in the most rational manner in the sense of time, since the EEU transition is a matter of an extensive and continuous work.
The second question raised dealt with the issues related to the Tax Council.
The AmCham Board assessed the quality of the analytical work carried out within the Ministry of Finance regarding the creation of the new Tax Code, but AmCham also stressed its indignation with regards to the inappropriate level of communication and consultancy of the Council with the businesses.
AmCham informed the Ministry about it initiative to gather a multilateral meeting with the participation of the USAID, WB, IFC and appropriate ministry representatives to share with the concerns of the businesses with regards to the new Tax Code.
Vache Gabrielyan assured the AmCham Board that the businesses should not panic, since the code is not ready yet, and that the business community will be provided with the opportunity of making its comments when the paper is ready, and that the code will not be sent for the approval to the parliament until it is publicly consulted with the businesses.
Third question raised regarded the sectoral technical regulations.
The AmCham Board requested to be provided with the opportunity of aggregating issues from its members with regards to the technical regulations and having them sent to the Ministry for review, that will in its turn send those to the appropriate ministries for investigation.

Bronx, NY
Mother, Mrs. Rose Snedcof
January 27, 1942
September 27, 1942
|Ammo Carrier
Gunshot wounds
Bronze Star, Purple Heart
Manila American Cemetery and Memorial, Philippines.
Birth and Early Life:
Harold Dick was born in Lakewood, New Jersey, in 1924. His father Charles, an Austrian-born immigrant and veteran of the Great War, died when Harold was only three years old. Two years later, the widowed Rose met and married Abraham Snedcof, a Russian Jewish carpenter with three daughters from a previous marriage. The entire clan moved to Tiffany Street in the Bronx, where Harold attended James Monroe high school.
Enlistment and Boot Camp:
Harold was in the middle of his senior year at James Monroe when Pearl Harbor was attacked. Patriotic posters sprang up almost overnight, and young men from the Bronx were filling recruiting stations for the Army, Navy, and Marines. Harold badly wanted to join up, but at seventeen years of age was still months below the minimum age requirement. There was one loophole – parental permission – but Rose put her foot down; she was not ready to send her only son off to war. At least he could finish high school, she argued – surely that would improve his options in the service?
Angry at his mother's decision, Harold took matters into his own hands. A few days after Christmas, 1941, Rose found Harold's bedroom empty – save for a farewell note. In a brilliant flash of teenaged melodrama, Harold had penned the words "I am going somewhere I won't need a suitcase" and run away from home.
The next word the family received was not from a proud serviceman, but from a worried daughter living in Florida. She had custody of a tired and sullen Harold, she said, who was still bent on enlisting and refused to return to the Bronx where he belonged. Rose finally acquiesced and filled out the required paperwork – and Harold joined the United States Marine Corps on January 27, 1942.
With their only son serving Uncle Sam, the Snedcofs decided it was time to do their bit as well. They moved to Rome, New York, where Abraham found work as a maintenance man at the local air force base; Rose volunteered with the Red Cross, knitting woolen goods and wrapping bandages for the boys overseas. (1)
Wartime Service:
After completing his boot training at Parris Island, Private Harold Dick was posted to Company D, First Battalion, 7th Marines. His company was the battalion's weapons outfit; Dick was assigned to a heavy machine gun crew as the "number four man"–an ammo carrier. He palled around with squadmates Elmer Anderson, Vincent Aidigi, and Ed Poppendick, answered the orders of Lieutenant Richard P. Richards, and jumped when Platoon Sergeant Rufus "Bucky" Stowers so desired. In all, the determined young lad from New York fit right in with his new vocation.
The 7th Marines spent the next few months training at New River before shipping overseas – not for combat, as they had anticipated, but for defense duty in Samoa. As 1942 continued and the threat of Japanese invasion diminished, defense duty became garrison duty – and while the scenery was beautiful and the Samoan natives friendly, the men of the 7th couldn't help but feel overlooked as their comrades in the First and Fifth Marines invaded Guadalcanal, and the Second Raider Battalion, encamped nearby, executed a daring raid on Makin Atoll.
In late August, Harold's regiment received orders to move, and by September 18 they were splashing ashore on Guadalcanal and setting up defensive positions – a wise move, as they were shelled by the Japanese that very night, suffering their first casualties. The very next morning battalion commander Lt. Col. Lewis "Chesty" Puller, a hard-charger who believed in aggressive action, began dispatching combat patrols. The heavy weapons of Dog company were not easily portable, so most of the men were left to guard the main perimeter while the faster-moving rifle companies made their combat patrols.
It is likely that Harold Dick spent most of his first week on Guadalcanal in the comparative safety of the main Marine line. He watched the rifle companies, along with a platoon of his company's machine guns, depart for a longer patrol towards the Matanikau River on September 23, and saw them return bearing two dozen stretcher cases on September 25. The Marines had taken a bloody nose from the Japanese along the Matanikau, and Puller had ordered most of them to return to base to await further orders. The following day passed quietly, with little word from Puller who was still out in the jungle with Company C.
Date Of Loss:
On Sunday, September 27, 1942, the riflemen of Companies A and B began bustling about, gearing up for a special mission: a miniature amphibious assault, landing from small boats behind enemy lines to support an attack across the Matanikau River. Company D was to contribute a mortar squad and a platoon of machine guns; Lieutenant Richards' men were tapped for the job, and Harold Dick was quickly loaded down with personal gear and several boxes of belted ammunition for his Browning machine gun.
The battalion was put ashore a few hundred yards beyond Point Cruz–in decidedly the wrong place. A lack of Japanese resistance was a welcome surprise, particularly as the machine gunners debarked in deep water; Ed Poppendick nearly drowned before getting ashore. The gunners watched as Company B formed a quick skirmish line and disappeared into the trees; since their heavy weapons were all but useless in an assault, they were to cover the landing of Company A and then advance with that unit.
Everything went according to plan until Captain Tom Cross's Company A came ashore. Almost simultaneously, mortar bursts could be heard in the vicinity of Hill 84, and the rifle company took off at the trot to help out Company B. Dutifully, the machine gunners covered the movement, then packed up to follow.
They had gone only a few yards into the trees when one of the gunners looked over his shoulder. "I think the Raiders are in back of us," he piped up hopefully. He could not have been more wrong: the figures behind him were Japanese, and closing fast.
"All of a sudden my squad was fighting down at the bottom of the hill while the rest of the guys had made it to the top to dig in," said Ed Poppendick. "I heard gunfire and the platoon sergeant, Stowers… [had his gun] shot right out of his hand. He was right there, a couple of feet away from me, when it happened. I don't know where the hell he went after that. The next thing I knew, this kid right next to me, the number four kid, was shot in the head. His name was Dick, he was a Jewish kid from Brooklyn. I could have touched him; he was that close to me when he got shot…."(2)
Anderson and Aidigi were wounded seconds later; then the corporal in charge and the remaining ammo carrier were hit. The entire squad was out of action before they could even deploy their weapon. Ed Poppendick dropped to the ground beside Harold Dick's lifeless body and lay motionless as the fight swept around him. Eventually, the surrounded Marines managed to fight their way back to an amphibious rescue and safety.
For more on this action, see Little Dunkirk.
Harold Dick was left where he fell. To this day, his remains have not been recovered or identified.

Would you mind tagging me - @dee - when you decide please @johnwilliams_6, so I can keep the weekly email up-to-date? Diolch
Will do! Diolch yn fawr @dee
I would be interested in future lunchtime meet-ups in Oxford, though I am not free on 14th Sept. I am a bit nervous about the idea because I have not yet spoken Welsh to anyone, but I would like to try.Sue
Helo Sue - always nice to welcome someone new to our group. We should be able to finalise the date for the first lunchtime meetup by the end of this week. Could you make it if it's on the 21st (@rebecca would that work also for you?)? It's very natural to feel a bit (or even very! ) nervous, but it's all very informal and I'm sure you'll be fine. Do let me know though, via this thread or by PM, if you have any specific worries. By the way, there's also a walk planned for Sat 23rd Sept (see the Oxford walks thread) which you'd be very welcome to joinHwy, John
Helo John,Thank you for that very kind reply. I am free on 21st September. I can't manage the walk though. I go out with a friend most Saturdays, and she would definitely not be interested in learning Welsh, unfortunately. I have no specific worries, just the normal one that I will not remember how to say anything.Diolch eto,Sue
Just to confirm that when our regular weekly meetups restart after the summer break we're going to try alternating between lunchtimes and evenings. We'll be starting with an evening meetup on Thurs 14th Sept from 5.30pm downstairs in the Jericho Cafe in Walton St. and the following week the meet-up will be on Thurs 21st Sept from 12 noon in the Museum of Modern Art Cafe in Pembroke St. and so on - do join us if you can make it (and diolch eto @dee for the update to the weekly email)Hwyl, John
A quick reminder that there'll be no meetup tomorrow but that the weekly Thursday meetups will be restarting next week on Thursday 14th Sept. Hwyl, John
I'm afraid that I won't be able to make it to this Thursday's Jericho Cafe meetup after all, due to a family emergency. If you're planning to be there, please do post a message to this thread and check later to make sure that there'll be someone else there as well Hwyl, John
Hi! I'll be there, if anyone else is planning to go? Sorry to hear you can't make it, @johnwilliams_6, and I hope the family emergency is resolved as smoothly as possible.
Thanks @rebecca, things are going reasonably well and I'll be back in time for the lunchtime meetup the following week. As for this week, some of the group don't manage to access the forum for one reason or another so I keep in touch with them via email - I'll let them know that you can come to this week's 5.30 Jericho Cafe meetup if any of them are planning on being there and I'll post a message here to confirm one way or the other. Hwyl, John
I can't make this one, but I'm hoping to go to the lunchtime one next week.Hwyl x
Ok, looks like this is not a great week for people - hopefully see you at next week's lunchtime meet up!
@johnwilliams_6 Unfortunately I can't make the 5.30pm ones
OK @rebecca - no problem. Hope to see you and @cat-1 - and @RichardBuck? - next week thenHwyl, John
I am hoping to join you next week too. How do I recognise you?Sue
Hi Sue - that's great. You'll probably spot us without any problem but I'll try and make sure to bring a flag or something else demonstrably Welsh.Hwyl, John
Thanks, @johnwilliams_6. I shall be wearing a red Berghaus jacket.Hwyl, Sue
Just to confirm, there won't be a Jericho Cafe meetup tomorrow (Thurs 14th Sept).The next meetup will be next week from 12 noon Thurs 21st Sept in the Museum of Modern Art Cafe in Pembroke Street. Hope to see you thereHwyl, John
Hi everyone! Unfortunately it looks like I won't be able to make the Thurs 21st Sept meeting ... with term starting I will be embroiled in all sorts of stuff with our new students. After next week, I'll be working away from Oxford on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but if anyone fancied a lunch meeting on any other day I would be up for that.
Gobethio weld chi'n fuan!
Hi @rebecca - if you could make Wed 20th, I've an appointment in the town centre that day so we could meet up then perhaps. I can usually be fairly flexible over lunchtime meetups - most Fridays would be OK for me and either Monday or Tuesday depending on the week. And there's no reason why we can't shift lunchtime meetups to another day if that works for the others - it's really whatever works best for everybody. What do other people think - @cat-1 @RichardBuck @Betterlatethan ?Hwyl, John
Hi everyone, @johnwilliams_6, @cat-1, @RichardBuck, @rebecca
Fridays are usually OK for me. Never Mondays. Occasional Tuesdays, but only the 4th Tuesday of the month. (or 5th if there is one.) Possibly some Wednesdays though timing is a bit tight.

Aims and Objectives
The aim of the Pre-school is to build confidence and expand your child's horizons as they take their first steps towards independence. This is achieved by providing the children with the opportunities for learning through play, social interaction and building on an early understanding of shapes, colours, numbers, counting, mark making along with sharing stories and songs.
Every child/parent has the support of their own individual key worker. Each key worker works closely with the family to make sure the child feels secure, happy and confident within the setting. Each Child's key worker works with the child to ensure they are achieving their next steps (through the use of individual play ladders, observations) and record their achievements in the Child's own Learning Journey book. Parents are encouraged to take these books home whenever they wish to look at what activities their child has been doing, their level of learning and to add to the book if they wish to with things the child has achieved at home. Parents can arrange to come into the setting and speak to the Child's key worker at a time convenient to them.
Within the group, all children are supported in developing their potential at their own pace. Our keyworker system enables us to ensure a planned curriculum tailored to the needs of each individual child. By means of developmentally appropriate play activities and a high level of individual adult input, we offer a curriculum which leads to nationally approved learning outcomes and prepares children to progress with confidence to the National Curriculum at the age of five years.
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS):
The framework is for all those who work with, and care for children aged from birth through to school reception, including those children with SEN and/or disability.
Children are born ready, able and eager to learn. They actively reach out to interact with other people, and in the world around them.
There are seven areas of learning and development within the EYFS. All areas of learning and development are important and inter-connected. Three areas are particularly crucial for igniting children's curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, and for building their capacity to learn, form relationships and thrive. These three areas, the prime areas are:
Communication and Language
Physical Development
Personal, Social and Emotional development
We also support children in four specific areas, through which the three prime areas are strengthened and applied. The specific areas are:
Session Times
Monday to Friday 8.45-11.45 12.30-3.30
Lunch club 11.45-12.30

Michael Des Barres has sold more than seven million albums worldwide both as an artist and a songwriter over the past five decades. His album Carnaby Street garnered a first-round Grammy nomination and two SiriusXM "Songs of the Week" last year, and he has just released Hot 'n Sticky,one of the first true live rock n roll records to come out in years. His enduring love of Delta blues and the rock and soul of the mid-60s beat boom carries forth from his days as the front man for such seminal 1970s bands as Silverhead and Detective, a band personally signed by Jimmy Page to Led Zeppelin's Swan Song records.
Michael Des Barres was also the touring singer for the Duran Duran spin-off group, The Power Station, performing at Live Aid with one of the most iconic live acts of the mid-1980s. From 1982 to 1984, Michael was a member of Chequered Past, which included Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols and Clem Burke and Nigel Harrison of Blondie. In 1983, Michael penned the song "Obsession", which later became a number one hit in 27 countries for LA new wave group Animotion; the track continues to be featured in countless movies, television shows and commercials. Michael continues to work as a performing artist and songwriter. His latest album, Key to the Universe, was released in 2016.

Lebron James, A Successful Rebrand
June 24, 2016
Posted by: Jonathan Weiss
Two years ago, I wrote about LeBron James' decision to return to Cleveland. This move represented the launch of a campaign to repair his brand, still suffering from his ill-conceived nationally-broadcasted decision to leave Northeast Ohio and take his talents to South Beach. His return home in 2014 was carefully constructed and messaged at the time, but his rebrand was ...Continue reading >

Math is a basic subject on your way to studying medicine. Even if it is not an explicit MCAT section, it does provide an important foundation in order to understand several scientific disciplines such as physics, biology, and sociology. A basic mathematical understanding is especially important to fully and immediately understand physical topics and be able to quickly solve any related tasks. This is why it is recommended to attend a calculus course, which is also a requirement for the MCAT exam admission.
At Lecturio you will find math and statistics in two separate courses in order to address each topic in detail.
