Athletic Training
Whether you play an organized sport, run track, or spend most of your free time at the gym, physical activity is a big part of your life.
That said, you know that by overworking yourself, you could end up with an injury. Luckily, if you call on an athletic trainer at a chiropractic clinic, you can overcome your pain and get back to your active lifestyle.
Athletic trainers receive special training to diagnose and treat sports and athletic injuries. These trainers can also administer emergency treatments and offer preventative care. They often work with physicians, chiropractors, and medical doctors to provide comprehensive care for athletes.
To become an athletic trainer requires time and schooling. These trainers often have earned their master's degrees and may have participated in doctoral programs and post-professional residency programs before becoming an official athletic trainer.
Even if you're not injury-prone, it's still beneficial for you to see an athletic trainer. Here are some reasons why:
If you're the type who often injuries yourself, you should do yourself a favor and see an athletic trainer. It's possible your form or conditioning could be to blame for your recurring injuries. An athletic trainer can show you ways to improve your posture, form, and conditioning so that you can play longer and harder without nagging pain.
If you have conditions like plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, tendonitis, knee injuries, a concussion, a torn MCL or ACL, shin splints, neck pain, and back pain, an athletic trainer can help. These are the most common sports injuries, and some of them—like neck pain, back pain, and concussions—can be dangerous for your long-term health.
There are several treatments an athletic trainer can administer to get you back into playing shape. These include:
Through a combination of these treatments, you should notice less pain and stiffness and better flexibility. You will soon be able to resume the athletics you enjoy so much.
Are you looking for an athletic trainer in Milwaukie, OR? If so, come see us at Eastside Spine and Injury.

According to their Facebook page:
The Peerage Pathways Project seeks to gather information about an individual's experiences on their journey to elevation. This knowledge will be gathered to provide a better understanding to the Society populace and educate us on both positive trends as well as opportunities for growth. Each person's path to Peerage is different. When searching the internet for information about this topic, I found a lot of individual accounts that helped to set a framework. I know there are thousands of more experiences and stories to be told. My mission is to collect those narratives, so they can be shared with the Known World. This is an Unofficial SCA Group and an independent study.
The survey for the general populace and for peers can both be found on Survey Monkey.

People stared, and that was the point.
On March 11, about 20 North Carolinians carried signs and banners and turbine-shaped windmills along U.S. 301 from Selma to Smithfield. Mechanics stood outside garages and watched, people on the street asked what it was all about, cars slowed and drivers stared, some honking horns and pumping fists in solidarity.
The activists passed through Johnston County on a route mimicking the Atlantic Coast Pipeline's North Carolina path, a project they oppose largely for environmental reasons. The pipeline is a project of Duke Energy and Dominion Resources, the two largest energy providers in North Carolina and Virginia. It will bring West Virginia natural gas to Eastern North Carolina.
Greg Yost, one of the organizers of the two-week protest walk from near the North Carolina-Virginia border to Pembroke, said the group started with 60 people on March 4 and had grown and shrunk as geography and time allowed. The final stage was scheduled to wrap up March 18.
"It sort of rises and falls," Yost said. "We're in our second week now. I expect the group size to double or triple in this last week."
On their Saturday trek through Johnston County, the walkers came from around the state – Durham, Raleigh, Charlotte and Asheville but none from Eastern North Carolina or along the pipeline's proposed route. In the afternoon, Clayton's Francine Stephenson and a handful of Johnstonians joined the walk; the pipeline will cut through land Stephenson owns near Four Oaks.
With the walk, activists said they hoped to bring awareness to a project that many might never know exists but could hurt neighbors and the farming community Johnston retains as an identity.
"I like walking; that's the simple and first answer," said walk organizer Steve Norris said, a retired professor from Warren Wilson College just outside of Asheville. He said he's been an activist of various causes since the Vietnam War and civil rights movement.
"These are really big, big operations, and when people hear Dominion and Duke are coming to town, people say, 'No way we can fight something like that,' " Norris said. "So some people say that there's no sense resisting this even if we know it's a really bad deal. So a walk is a way to challenge that and to let people know that this is not a done deal, that corporations can be challenged; there are ways for people at the grassroots to work together and fight this thing."
Norris said the group meets with locals along the route, some who walk, some who just tell their stories. He said he hears of retirement homes disrupted, family land disturbed and farmers worrying if their livelihoods will remain once the pipeline is up and running.
"We give them a shot in the arm; they give us a shot in the arm," Norris said. "Without them, the resistance to the pipeline wouldn't happen. They're the grassroots of this struggle; maybe we're the fertilizer."
Climate worries
Far from his Asheville home, Norris said he came to this fight because of larger climate-change concerns, feeling that the $5 billion pipeline was a doubling down on fossil fuels when, he said, the country should look elsewhere.
"It breaks my heart to see communities being uprooted by the pipeline, but for me personally, the fight is about climate change," Norris said. "I have children, I have grandchildren, I have great-grandchildren. I worry about whether the planet will be a place where people can live the way I've been able to live the last 70 years."
Stephenson walked the afternoon leg, driving her Toyota Prius from her Clayton home to meet up with walkers at Holt Lake Bar-B-Que & Seafood south of Smithfield. Until she found out in 2014 that her land was in the pipeline's path, Stephenson said, she didn't consider herself an activist or outwardly political. But she said for her, the pipeline fight is personal, changing land she inherited from her father and changing her family's plans for the future.
"My intention for these two plots, divided as they are (by a highway), was that each of my daughters could inherit one of the pieces and build a retirement home there," Stephenson said. "That's important to me because that's where my father lived, my mother, my grandparents. It just has a lot of history. Our family goes back to the 1700s in this area."
Stephenson said pipeline representatives offered her between $5,000 and $10,000 for a permanent easement through her 20 acres. She didn't accept the offer, meaning the courts will likely set the price.
A farmer grows sweet potatoes on some of her land, Stephenson said, and questions remain about how the pipeline might affect the farming operation. She said it's unclear, for example, whether the trucks used to carry harvested sweet potatoes can cross over the buried pipeline or if a bridge will need to be built.
Among counties in the pipeline's path, Johnston is likely among the least resistant to the project, Norris said. Stephenson said she doesn't think many people know about it. She thinks the pipeline is shortsighted, that her land will fall into a permanent easement for an energy source with an eventual expiration date.
"It will be in effect for a few years, and eventually, shell gas will run out in West Virginia and we'll be stuck with an easement that they own forever," Stephenson said.
Meeting a need
Power from the sun and wind is part of the future energy picture, but neither combine to satisfy the electrical appetite of the modern age, said Aaron Ruby, a Dominion spokesman. Until that day comes, if it ever does, he argued a natural-gas pipeline is the cleanest, cheapest way to keep the lights on, while representing a far smaller footprint than either wind or solar.
Supplying Virginia and North Carolina with natural gas means moving away from coal-fired power plants, Ruby said. "This cuts carbon emissions in North Carolina in half," Ruby said. "This project is an essential part of the nation and region's effort to move towards cleaner-burning resources. This pipelines allows Duke Energy to lower carbon emissions. ... The reality is that renewable energy is not capable of meeting the needs of 24-hour power demands."
Ruby said farmers would be compensated for lost crops for two seasons while the pipeline is installed and brought online. After that, he said, it would be business as usual, that most farm equipment could drive over the pipeline and that the heavier loads of timber operations would just need extra padding.
"Farmers should see no difference in using the land as they always have," Ruby said.
While calling the project vital to the region, Four Oaks Mayor Linwood Parker said he's heard many of the concerns about the pipeline and that he respects the people voicing their opposition. "The unknown sometimes creates these questions," he said.
Parker pointed to Raleigh and Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia and said if natural gas is dangerous, the grids in those cities should be switched off.
"Natural gas is the cleanest and cheapest energy source we have at the moment," Parker said, adding the pipeline's construction will bring temporary jobs and added tax revenue. "That's not to say in the future there won't be something better, but at the moment, this is what we have."

Carroll County Commissioner Elmer C. Lippy calls it "bad chemistry," but it may take a psychologist rather than a chemist to repair the relations between the board's two male members and the lone female commissioner.
After suppressing her unhappiness over board relations for nearly two years, Julia W. Gouge has publicly complained that Mr. Lippy and Donald I. Dell aren't giving her much respect.
She claims they have deliberately excluded her from decision-making sessions and kept her in the dark for days, and sometimes weeks, on decisions the two had made. Judging from Kerry O'Rourke's report Sunday in The Sun, it appears as though Mrs. Gouge no longer will quietly tolerate the dismissive treatment she has been receiving.

Several species of Fast Biters appear in the franchise. Most fast biter designs are roughly the same, but come in different colors (dull green, dark grey, red or burnt orange seem to be the main colors) with a line of darker stripes of the color running down the back. These appear in The Land Before Time III: The Time of the Great Giving, The Land Before Time VII: The Stone of Cold Fire, The Land Before Time XI: Invasion of the Tinysauruses, The Land Before Time XIII: The Wisdom of Friends, and the TV series.

Technicians and designers with more than 40 years' combined experience.
- Capitalizing on each program's strength for maximum creative freedom
- Custom designed backgrounds and logo treatments
- Ability to import PC and Macintosh files including high-quality images, animations and video

Builds and Animations
Our highly effective methods improve comprehension and speed up presentations.
The "build" technique is applied to any type of slide.
- A text bullet slide such as a conclusion slide shows each of the speaker's points
- Key rows or columns of complex tables are revealed or highlighted
- Graphs display each series of data individually simplifying presentations.
We advise builds be done simply. No excessive use of flying text. Used correctly, this technique improves the presentation.
We also design more complex animations such as "mechanism of action" movies, which bring complex pathways to life.
Close communication with staff ensures the well-rehearsed speaker is prepared for their presentation using any design.
Intro Animations and Loops
Including our introductory animations gives your formal presentations a professional start.
Immediately engage your audience's attention effectively with one or both of these:
"Walk-in" or "Loop": These short, simple animations of program logos subtly display program titles once the room opens and until the program starts.
"Intro Animation": A 30–60 second program introduction, similar to opening sequences for a television news or drama program, featuring upbeat music, topics, speakers' names, and graphic elements appropriate to the program and theme logo.

Oxhide (Liu Jiayin, 2005, China)- 5/5
I was almost fooled by its documentary-like approach, when I realized by the second half of the film that it must be scripted, considering the carefully planned choices of long, static, cramped-up shots for each scene. And my sympathies all go to the father and his dilemma of either sticking it out for his craft, his passion, or giving in to what the public wants. There is also something ambiguously profound in the ending, where they give no answer or response to what the father says in the end.
The Sacrifice (Andrei Tarkovsky, 1975, Soviet Union)- 3.5/5
Utterly beautiful, if not entirely moving, in the way the whole thing is filmed. Because of Tarkovsky's ease in filming natural elements-- the gentle movements of the curtains, the steps through the mud, the cloth as it starts to catch fire-- and attention to minutiae detail, the way the story unfolds seems to be not that important, considering how we can already guess quite a lot on what will eventually happen from the film's title.
Egg (Semih Kaplanoğlu, 2007, Turkey)- 3.5/5
It is perhaps not as great as Kaplanoğlu's later film, Honey, that just perfectly captures the beauty of the rural landscapes through image and sound and the pains and melancholy of childhood. But, perhaps, I've just never experienced adulthood yet in order to fully relate with and understand the hero's brooding over the past and going back to his roots in this film.
La Perle (Henri d'Ursel, 1929, Belgium)- 4/5
Deliciously fun and erotic. After seeing this, I felt like slickly sauntering around high-class apartments and stealing jewelleries from all the tenants in those tight outfits, just like what I had felt before, subsequent to watching Maggie Cheung portray Irma Vep.
Un Lac (Philippe Grandrieux, 2008, France)- 4/5
Truth be told, while watching it, I kept psychoanalyzing every human relations and interactions in the film even with the father, with his anti-climactic arrival, noticing suggestions of incest between the older brother and sister, and psychological complexes in almost each and every one of them, especially Alexi. But, perhaps, I was using the wrong approach. The filmmaker seems more interested in creating an atmosphere of bleakness living in isolation and capturing the stillness of the scenic snowy landscapes, with his use of non-patterned and uncalculated array of film techniques.
The Ball at the Anjo House (Kozaburo Yoshimura, 1947, Japan)- 4.5/5
Oh, Masayuki Mori was so dreamy then, or maybe I do really have a thing for badass boys. Oh, those smoke rings. Swoon. I don't think there is anything juicier, for me at least, than the crumbling of an upper-class family, troubled by the loss of all their wealth. Yet in this film, one can't somehow help but feel for the family and their plight. This is great, juicy family drama stuff, the kind I've always expected out of old Hollywood melodrama films that mostly just stooped down to either playing it safe or going way over-the-top. But here, prepare for some drama dealing, with class relations, some "Old money" and "New Money" conflict, and both familial and romantic tensions, all done in a sincere manner. I got my eyes all glued to the screen during the grand finale to the ball.
Nostalgia for the Light (Patricio Guzmán, 2010, Chile)- 4.5/5
Going into this, I was expecting the film to be an existential search for truth and to have a sense of wonderment about this whole bigger world up there in space. Although it does mention a thing or two about those things, this is not a film wholly interested in and dedicated to the greater scope of things. It is mostly about memory and the past. Society is keen on finding about the origins of us, humankind, our past thousands of years ago, but it would do anything to forget our immediate past, especially ones that reflect badly on what humans are capable of. Once again, Patricio Guzman does an effective documentary film about his country's continuous agony and suffering that may seem minuscule and insignificant when measured up to the vastness of our universe but that are hugely important to those who have experienced it in the past, these people who also make up the cosmos' intricate thread of the past, present and future.
Bitter Rice (Giuseppe De Santis, 1949, Italy)- 4/5
Oh, Silvana, Silvana. Her dilemmas, confusion and pain over what she is doing towards her fellow countrywomen, both her conflicting feelings of fascination for wealth and luxury and empathy for her fellow rice workers, and her unpredictable behaviour. And, don't pretend you didn't notice her sensuality and beautiful and curvaceous body (and I am not even into women!). These are really what got me engrossed to the whole film, as I wait for her next unpredictable move even though, by the second half, we can sadly guess what her fate will be. That, and the depiction of the minor characters too, the genuine working-class women who work their asses off for this seasonal work and who only occasionally have their moments of triumph and joy.
The Party and the Guests (Jan Němec, 1966, Czechoslovakia)- 4/5
It's hard not to think of the whole film as a political allegory, considering how the party occurs in a forest, isolated away from any real resemblance of a regime or government. And it's horrifying to think how charismatic the birthday man and his son were, how they charmingly convinced the guests that the son abducting them was just a mere game of tomfoolery, his own idea of a game.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (David Yates, 2010, U.K.)- 2/5
I cried, a few shots even before the moment of Dobby's death. It was not because of the film's execution of the scene but because of how I remembered his death in the book. The film made Dobby's last words to his old masters way too melodramatic when I don't think there was any real emphasis to it in the book. There really is going to be a problem when you try to just swiftly execute vital scenes such as their visit to Godric's Hollow. The quick pace of the film also does not capture the slow pace of countless moments of inactivity, of trying to figure out stuff, and of not finding anything at all, the trio kept having in the book. The eureka moments didn't just go, like, bang, bang, bang, you know.

An independent monitor with unprecedented access to criminal and internal police investigations would head up Denver's new form of civilian oversight under a proposal by Mayor John Hickenlooper, reports the Rocky Mountain News. Sweeping changes suggested for the city's civilian oversight of the police department would cost about $500,000 and require two charter changes and a new city ordinance. The charter changes would require voter approval. "There is nothing I will work any harder on for the city," Hickenlooper said. "We will find the money without raising any taxes." Police Chief Gerry Whitman said the proposal is workable but will require selecting a neutral monitor. "Effective and robust civilian oversight has to be a critical component of any law enforcement agency," Hickenlooper told the City Council's Public Safety Committee.
The Office of the Independent Monitor would be mandated to investigate five types of incidents, including all police- or sheriff's deputy-involved shootings, in-custody deaths and any incident in which a police officer or deputy is charged with or investigated for a felony. One of the most significant changes is that the monitor's office would be involved in the criminal investigation of police-involved shootings. The monitor would be allowed to observe interviews after an incident from a second room and pass along questions to those conducting the interview.

Stop buying lattes at Starbucks.
Are all these writers lactose intolerant?
The argument is that spending $3 or $4 every day for a fancy cup of coffee will suck up your savings and wreck your retirement.
Yes, saving is vital if you want to have plenty of money later on in life. But this is the wrong way to think about it.
Tell me to stop drinking Starbucks, and I automatically think: The brewed coffee around the office is awful. And I like — no — love my iced coffee with sugar-free vanilla syrup.
Do I have to give up every little luxury and live the life of a miser?
No. And if you tell people they do, you could scare them away from saving altogether.
A better way to think it: Save first, spend second.
Pick a percentage of your income and make sure it automatically gets invested before you can get your hands on it.
T. Rowe Price estimates that you need to save at least 15% of your pre-tax salary to replace 50% or more of your current income in retirement. If you're starting late, that amount goes up to 25% or more.
The best way to hit that target is through your 401(k) plan. This year the maximum contribution allowed is $15,000. And with a 401(k), the money gets invested before you ever see it. Plus, many people get a company match on contributions, which is free money.
If you need to set aside even more, make regular automatic contributions from your checking account into a mutual fund.
Once you're saving enough, it doesn't matter how you much spend, as long as you don't go into debt to do it.
And when financial writers and advisers list all the goodies you should stop buying, they can miss bigger maneuvers that can save you more money.
For example, move any excess balance in a low-or no-interest checking account into a high-yielding one at, say, an online bank. If you're earning 0.5% one place and can make 5% at another, the difference can add up to hundreds of dollars a year.
And if you do have high-interest credit card debt, try to lower the rate you're paying. You try to negotiate with your current credit card company or roll over your balance to a new card. The average credit card balance in this country is close to $10,000. Reducing the interest rate on a balance of that size by just five percentage points will save $500 a year.
And that's a lot of lattes.

Cardiovascular technicians assist cardiologists and other specialists with tests and procedures of the heart and blood vessels.
Conduct tests on pulmonary or cardiovascular systems of patients for diagnostic purposes. May conduct or assist in electrocardiograms, cardiac catheterizations, pulmonary functions, lung capacity, and similar tests.
The cardiovascular tech job description includes assisting physicians in diagnosing and treating cardiac (heart) and peripheral vascular (blood vessel) ailments. Cardiovascular techs may specialize in any of three areas of practice: invasive cardiology, echocardiography, and vascular technology. Cardiovascular technicians who specialize in electrocardiograms (EKGs), stress testing, and Holter monitors are known as cardiographic technicians, or EKG technicians.
The correct terminology depends on the cardiovascular tech job description and training. However, the common usage is cardiovascular tech or cardiovascular technician. Cardiovascular technologist is used less often. The range in a cardiovascular tech job description will vary widely. Techs in a smaller organization will be less specialized and have a broader range of duties.
Working Environment
Cardiovascular tech's generally work a 5-day, 40-hour week that may include weekends. Those in catheterization laboratories tend to work longer hours and may work evenings. They also may be on call during the night and on weekends. As they are usually paid hourly this can result in significant extra earnings through overtime and other incentives.
Cardiovascular technologists and technicians spend a lot of time walking and standing. Heavy lifting may be involved to move equipment or transfer patients. Those who work in catheterization laboratories may face stressful working conditions because they are in close contact with patients with serious heart ailments. For example, some patients may encounter complications that have life-or-death implications.
Education and Training
A basic EKG technician may only receive a brief training period with some didactic learning while on the job. Most other technicians require a certificate or an associate's degree from an accredited vocational school or college. Cardiovascular technologists frequently have a bachelor's degree or the equivalent.
Employers typically prefer candidates with degrees or certificates from accredited institutes or hospital programs. Most programs also include a clinical component in which students earn credit while working under a more experienced technologist in a hospital, physician's office, or imaging laboratory.
The majority of the
states require some type of licensing or registration. The usual method to
obtain this is:
1) Possess the amount of training and/or a degree from an accredited school
2) Apply for licensure/registration in the state you wish to practice in.
Significant Points
Career Progression
There is not a tremendous amount of upward mobility in this career. Advancement may be to positions such as lead technologists and in some instance department manager. Wages are expected to increase at a moderate pace. Those looking to assume more managerial roles or CEO responsibilities usually acquire additional education in human resources or healthcare administration.

No one can be positive all the time. You will naturally have periods of doubt. These temporary periods will not hurt you seriously. But a consistently negative attitude that persists for weeks or months will destroy your future with the organization. If you find your negative attitude cannot be improved in your present setting, and you honestly feel such an attitude is justified, you should resign.

Chase Carey could take over Sky Deutschland
Rupert Murdoch eyeing solutions for pay TV groupBERLIN -- Rupert Murdoch is set to fly in his No. 2, News Corp. president and deputy chairman Chase Carey, to sort things out at struggling German pay TV group Sky Deutschland.
News Corp. has confirmed Carey is a candidate to take over as chairman of Sky when the company's current chairman, Markus Tellenbach, steps down this year. Sky Deutschland and Tellenbach both declined comment Friday.
Sending in Carey would be a clear sign that Murdoch is serious about fixing Sky and making pay TV work in Germany. News Corp. holds a 45.4% stake in Sky Deutschland but the German operation has proved a money pit. Analysts estimate James Murdoch, head of News Corp. Europe, has invested nearly $1 billion buying into German pay TV.
Things got even worse this week when telco giant Deutsche Telekom announced it plans to knock Sky out of top spot and become the biggest force in German pay TV within three years.
Sky has been pouring money into advertising but so far has not won over many Germans to its service. At the end of last year, Sky had fewer than 2.5 million direct subscribers in Germany, well below the level it needs to be profitable.
Deutsche Telekom has 1.1 million subscribers for its Internet-based pay service Entertain, a figure Telekom says it will triple by 2012.

How to stay inspired/
I am a huge fan of dilly-dallying. Or rather, I should say I have perfected the logic of partaking in activities which masquerade as work-related, when don't really fit in that category. I'm very skilled at sustaining the delusion that reading my favourite op-ed piece in the New York Times counts as work, and that faffing about in Facebook groups is a legitimate business task.
It's a flawed rationality that I have a torturous relationship with. I am very hard on myself for missing deadlines, or even letting meetings go on for too long as they eat into my precious writing time. Yet still, I can find that a 30-minute podcast break turns into an hour, and all the while I'm talking myself into further procrastination. It's all work, right?
At some point in my first year as a full-time freelance copywriter, I realised that procrastination was my psyche's way of telling me that I was bored and lacking inspiration. If you knew me around September-December last year, you'll know that I became mildly obsessed with logging my time in Toggl. Counting is a particularly quirky behaviour of mine, and Toggl gave me permission to indulge this obsessive side. The idea was to see where I was spending my hours – copywriting for clients, checking emails, marketing – and a lot of it was on social media.
However much I do enjoy a good Tumblr binge, scrolling through amateur acrostic poetry was not the activity I needed. I needed creative fuel and more energy to fuel my new freelance copywriting venture, particularly as I was in the middle of a caffeine detox. I needed something that would feed my brain, not give me RSI and FOMO.
I needed inspiration.
Inspiration has become such a hackneyed phrase lately, so I'm partially hesitant to use it. It's a phrase which is partially reminiscent of an obsession with overlaying hand-written text on a scenic photograph, the type you see on Instagram or Pinterest. It's also a term often misused by big companies who want to be portrayed as more human, ethical and connected to their audiences. When I hand over a copywriting brief, an overwhelming amount of brands seek to 'inspire' their customers. What they really mean is 'influence to buy our stuff'. That's not what I mean when I talk about inspiration.
I'm talking about that current of energy that flows through the computer screen as you listen to one of the youngest magazine publishers in the world, their words and cadence reaching out and zapping you across space and time. Inspiration is that fire in your belly that's ignited by a friendly (or not so friendly) argument, the type that outrages you and demands you do something, anything, about this atrocity.
For myself, I feel particularly inspired when I catch up with a dear friend and ex-editor. She has a particular way of making me feel indestructible.
Getting your inspiration can be as simple as going to an art gallery and letting a David Bowie exhibition marinade in your mind, or walking from Bondi to Bronte with the ocean scent in your nostrils. It doesn't take much, but the results are profound. These are the best forms of inspiration – those highly potent doses that require little effort, time, and money.
It's these moments which are essential to combat a fatigued mind.
But sometimes you can't attend the best seminars in your industry.
Or maybe it's raining, or your inspirational friend is sick.
If you're going to keep inspiration as a source of fuel, it needs to be scheduled.
How to stay inspired
We're creatures of routine. Ask me to change my yoga schedule, and you will be met with a stern look that says under no circumstances will I miss my Tuesday morning vinyasa flow. And don't get me started on breakfast: if we were to run out of eggs, I would walk through torrential rain to fetch a free-range batch, or lay them myself. But routines can create boredom, and it's hard to stay focused and productive when you're unmotivated.
And when you're unmotivated and tired, it's really hard to do a thing without grimacing.
So you sit, and you wait for inspiration to materialise. But therein lies a fault in your flawed logic.
Inspiration is not a magical occurrence that materialises as you login to Netflix. True, you might feel inspired after a coffee date with a colleague. But these occurrences aren't always possible. Inspiration doesn't lead to action, it comes from action.
And the idea that inspiration must come to you is one of the biggest mistakes people make when productivity is top of mind.
If you're not feeling inspired, you can't wait for the muse to knock at your door.
Not feeling inspired enough to hit the gym?
Lace up your shoes and go anyway. Spend five minutes on the treadmill. I doubt you'll want to get off.
Writer's block got you down? It's a terrible affliction, but you're not unique. Just write one paragraph. It's all about baby steps. Eventually, you'll have a whole chapter or blog post.
By all means, book that workshop. Go see that person talk about their thing. But if you truly want inspiration – the type that sticks around and is easily accessible – you need to be responsible for it.

Already noted by those notoriously hawkish hacks at the Washington Free Beacon, it is quite apparent that the below clip from the hit British political sitcom 'Yes, Prime Minister' is the best summing up of the West's foreign policy position on Iraq and Syria.
It's a joke in the television show, but in reality it is emboldening our enemies, costing thousands of lives, and ensuring that the Middle East finds itself firmly back in the dark ages.

No matter how scary I try to look, what with my short hair, frown lines, and black clothes, I'm the person in the street everyone seems to approach. Sometimes, I'm asked for directions; sometimes, they want money or cigarettes; sometimes, I'm told a story. And sometimes, I'm asked if I'm saved. I used to answer, "it's complicated", but that opened up a whole conversation I didn't want to have. Then I began saying "yes"—but I discovered that meant further questions to find out if I'm saved in the right way. I won't tell you what I say now; but, it seems that, whatever I say, it's almost impossible to shake such a questioner off. So when I hear Jesus saying that he will make his disciples fish for people, I feel a bit queasy. Continue reading "Fishing for People: The medium is the message"
Beyond human boundaries
So Jesus was at the pub, eating and drinking and talking with whoever turned up. There were gay men and rainbow families; transgender teenagers; women who prioritised work over family life; some sex workers; a couple of drug addicts; more than a few atheists; and some traumatised Muslim asylum seekers. And these people were crowding around and listening to what he had to say. Just inside the door of the pub, a huddle of priests and ministers and good Christian types stood awkwardly clutching their glasses of warm mineral water and grumbling among themselves. "Who is this feller?" they were asking. "If he keeps hanging around those dodgy people, nobody will take him seriously. And what is he saying? If he's telling stories like that, maybe he needs to rethink his connection with the church." Continue reading "Beyond human boundaries"

Apple and Knife, Intan Paramaditha, translated by Stephen J. Epstein (Brow Books 2018)
Apple and Knife is a short story collection by Intan Paramaditha translated by Stephen J. Epstein. It was first published in Australia (March 2018) by Brow Books, the book publishing imprint of the literary magazine The Lifted Brow. Apple and Knife consists of eleven stories that were published in Indonesia between 2005-2010 and one unpublished story. The stories are drawn from Sihir Perempuan (KataKita 2005/ Gramedia Pustaka Utama 2017), a collection of short stories shortlisted for the Khatulistiwa Literary Award, and Kumpulan Budak Setan (Gramedia Pustaka Utama 2010), a horror anthology co-written with Eka Kurniawan and Ugoran Prasad.
Publication of this book was made possible with assistance from the LitRI Translation Funding Program of the National Book Committee and Ministry of Education and Culture, the Republic of Indonesia.
Apple and Knife will be launched in New Zealand (New Zealand Festival, Writers and Readers, March 10, 2018) and Australia (Sydney, Better Read Than Dead, March 23, 2018).
Apple and Knife will be published in the U.K. and Commonwealth countries by Harvill Secker (Vintage/ Penguin Random House).
For more information about the book, please visit Brow Books/ The Lifted Brow website.
For inquiries on publication in other countries and foreign rights, please contact Kelly Falconer, Asia Literary Agency: email@example.com.
Inspired by horror fiction, myths and fairy tales, Apple and Knife is an unsettling ride that swerves into the supernatural to explore the dangers and power of occupying a female body in today's world.
These short fictions set in the Indonesian everyday—in corporate boardrooms, in shanty towns, on dangdut stages—reveal a soupy otherworld stewing just beneath the surface. Sometimes wacky and always engrossing, this is subversive feminist horror at its best, where men and women alike are arbiters of fear, and where revenge is sometimes sweetest when delivered from the grave.
"Intan Paramaditha, who mixes fairy tales and gothic ghost stories with feminist and political issues, shakes up her readers, showing that her fiction is not beholden to a single interpretation. Her short stories reveal that the most terrifying thing in life is not one of the supernatural ghosts that populate her work, but human prejudice. As far as I'm concerned, only writers of genius are able to convey a layered and nuanced world, and Intan is one of them."
Eka Kurniawan, internationally acclaimed author of Beauty is a Wound and Man Tiger, Man Booker International Prize 2016 finalist
"In Apple and Knife, Intan Paramaditha has turned the fairytale on its head. Instead of helpless maidens, these fables are bursting with fierce and fabulous females, determined to exact justice in an unjust world. As the enigmatic title suggests, the writing is juicy and incisive. Every story is a gem and, as with all good fairytales, there are important lessons to be learned."
Melanie Cheng, author of Australia Day, winner of the 2016 Victorian Premier's Unpublished Manuscript Award
"Deliciously dark and expertly disturbing, Intan Paramaditha's compelling Apple and Knife will haunt you. Her weird, original stories reveal the darkness behind old tales and the shadows lurking at the edges of modern life."
Ryan O'Neill, author of The Weight of a Human Heart and Their Brilliant Careers, winner of the 2017 Prime Minister's Literary Award for Fiction
"Abject and visceral, the stories in Apple and Knife are incise, humorous and vividly realised. Intan Paramaditha transgresses narrative conventions, bringing the villain into intimate proximity. Her tropes are marvellously bound, ranging from allegory, dystopian realism to erotic fantasy. Luminous and dangerously entertaining."
Michelle Cahill, author of Letter to Pessoa and winner of the NSW Premier's Literary Award for New Writing
"Apple and Knife challenges contemporary national ideas about womanhood. All the stories in this book speak of distinctive aspects of women's lives, like virginity, menstruation, abortion and marriage, and peel off the myths surrounding them. At a glance, the women in the stories — be they a mother, a daughter, a sister, a blue-collar worker, a white-collar worker or even a fiction writer — could be seen as disobedient. In an interview with Whiteboard Journal, Paramaditha admits she wants to reclaim the word bandel, or "disobedient". Her idea of disobedience, however, is not a conventional gesture, like smoking or having a tattoo, but the inclination to break through, to cross borders, to resist."
Norman Erikson Pasaribu, Mekong Review

Hello everyone!
Here is my review for #GIRLBOSS, by Sophia Amoruso.
Get your copy from Book Depository
The founder of Nasty Gal offers a sassy and irreverent manifesto for ambitious young women
At seventeen, Sophia Amoruso decided to forgo continuing education to pursue a life of hitchhiking, dumpster diving, and petty thievery. Now, at twenty-nine, she is the Founder, CEO, and Creative Director of Nasty Gal, a $100+ million e-tailer that draws A-list publicity and rabid fans for its leading-edge fashion and provocative online persona. Her story is extraordinary—and only part of the appeal of #GIRLBOSS.
This aspirational book doesn't patronize young women the way many business experts do. Amoruso shows readers how to channel their passion and hard work, while keeping their insecurities from getting in the way. She offers straight talk about making your voice heard and doing meaningful work.
She's proof that you can be a huge success without giving up your spirit of adventure or distinctive style. As she writes, "I have three pieces of advice I want you to remember: Don't ever grow up. Don't become a bore. Don't let The Man get to you. OK? Cool. Then let's do this."
- motivates you to stand up and do something
- pure honesty
- it doesn't really have a format, which makes it repetitive at times
- a lot of #humblebrag
- author doesn't acknowledges her luck
Sigh, I don't even know where to start with this one. Mostly because I still don't know 100% what to think of it. Some parts really made me want to really look for something I truly love, work on it and be successful. Other's just annoyed me. I mean, girl, you are writing a book. It literally says in the cover that you are rich and popular. There's no need to remind ourselves about it every few sentences. Although I appreciate your honesty about stealing and dumpster diving, it doesn't really erase or justify the amount of bragging. Besides, it really irritated me that Amoruso refuses to acknowledge that luck played any kind of part in her success. I also refuse to believe this is true. I know for a fact that hard work and talent aren't the only ingredients for success. She was lucky, simple. She found a unique piece, she had the opportunities, she found the right people at the right time. But I'm sure there were people that tried the same things as her and didn't achieve half the success. I'm positive that wasn't because they didn't want it or worked enough. I understand you want to be praised for your hard work or whatever, but I think a bit of humility would make this book a lot more relatable and, consequently, more inspirational. Besides, with the recent news of the store's bankruptcy, this is all very ironic, to say the list.
Anyway, this is a peculiar book but I think it is a good title for young girls to read since there's something to take out of it.
Anyone here has read it?! Please let me know your thoughts!
See you guys soon,

Thesis Title
Unraveling the complex roles of genes in the PIRL family on Arabidopsis pollen development
Graduation Year
Date of Thesis Acceptance
Spring 5-11-2011
Major Department or Program
Dan Vernon
The PIRL family is a group of nine recently identified Arabidopsis genes encoding a novel class of plant leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins. Two of these genes, PIRL1 and PIRL9, have redundant roles critical in pollen development. PIRL2 and PIRL3 are the closest relatives of PIRL1 and PIRL9, comprising the PIRL Subfamily I. Because PIRL2 and PIRL3 are closely related to PIRL1 and PIRL9, it was hypothesized that these genes would share functions in pollen development similar to those of PIRL1 and PIRL9. Furthermore, it was hypothesized that PIRL2 and PIRL3 would also show redundancy with one another and with PIRL1 and PIRL9. In order to test these hypotheses, pollen from T-DNA knockout plant lines with single, double, and triple loss-of-function mutations in pirl2, pirl3, and pirl1 and/or pirl9 was assessed for viability and morphology using Alexander's stain and scanning electron microscopy. Additionally, a pilot experiment to assess differential vulnerability to heat stress in these mutants was undertaken. The results suggest that these four related genes have overlapping and unequally redundant roles in pollen development. This may reflect the evolutionary history of these genes, which are derived from ancient duplication events.
