If there is one thing I love more than anything, it has to be helping people both improve their health, and transform their physiques in record time. So when I heard along the grapevine that super coach to the stars Christian Maurice was coming to town, I was chomping at the bit for the opportunity to learn from this man's expertise firsthand!
Mr Maurice's portfolio is beyond impressive to say the least. Not only is he frequently sought after by Hollywood to prepare tinseltown's A-list for major screen roles; he has also combined his unique skillset to achieve extraodinary results with Olympic athletes, fitness competitors and general population alike.
Over the course of my 3 days with Christian, perched in the front row taking notes like a court stenographer on amphetamines. Yet what I managed to come away with was a VAST bounty of information relating to biochemistry, psychology, nutrition and training that helped me refine my own systems and help me see the art of body transformation in a new light.
Without giving everything away, here were 5 tidbits I took away with me from the course that are frequently overlooked, but equal in importance when trying to rapidly transform a person's physique.
The thyroid gland acts the bodies' thermostat, and oversees energy production in the body on a global scale. However, the physiology of the thyroid gland itself can become quite complex, and a lot can go wrong!
One such example, is an over conversion of triiodothyronine or T3, the bodies predominately 'active' thyroid hormone, to reverse triiodothyronine or RT3.
Reverse T3 is an inactive form of T3 which binds to thyroid receptors in the body, having no action. This results in less real estate for the remaining active T3 to plug into, therefore energy production down regulates and metabolism slows as a result.
What can cause a rise in RT3 levels? Typically it can be found in individuals afterprolonged periods of caloric restriction, as the body seeks to preserve energy expenditure by conversion of T3 to RT3 to lower metabolism. Something I find so common especially in new clients with any history of eating disorders or crash dieting.
Christian spent a large portion of the course emphasizing the adverse effects of chronically elevated cortisol levels, and the importance of resolving HPA axis dysfunction in order to achieve a rapid body transformation.
Chronically elevated cortisol levels interfere with sleep, hormonal balance, thyroid & immune function, digestion, mood, hydration and blood sugar regulation just to name a few. Hence the reason why if your client is maximally stressed, then even with ALL of the other variables in check such as nutrition and training, their progress will be slow.
It is only once you identify what stresses the client and remove the triggers that the rapid results will come. Stressors could rear their head in a variety of ways be it environmental, chemical, mental/emotional, physical or even the result of past trauma. The clincher is that most of the time, the client won't even realize they ARE stressed. Address the stress FIRST.
Just as you cannot out train a bad diet, you cannot out supplement one either. Unfortunately in the quest for body transformation, the sad truth is a lot of folks are just far too eager to commence popping pills to fix their woes, then ACTUALLY change their lifestyle and nutrition
The hard reality is however that abs are indeed made in the kitchen. But it is much more than just the food that we eat. It is also HOW we eat, and how we ABSORB what we eat that also matters.
One thing Christian really drilled home early on, was the emphasis on the cephalic phase of eating and it's relation to our digestion. Defined as in or relating to the head, the Cephalic phase of digestion is the bodies preparation for digestion that commences with the secretion of gastric juices and digestive enzymes in preparation for a meal when food is detected by the senses through sight and smell. In the cephalic phase, all information goes through the vagus nerve where it begins to initiate digestion.
Bearing this in mind, it is worth noting that digestion is in fact enhanced if you prepare your own food as the action of preparing a meal, improves your bodies ability to break it down and assimilate it. Quite often, simply taking the time to cook your own meals and actually sit with your food when you eat, thoroughly chewing your food, can remove the need for digestive enzymes and reduce gastrointestinal upset. This does more for digestion than anything else. So no matter how busy you are, never eat at your desk at work!
Properly chewing your food is the other side of the coin. Not only because it increases the surface area of your food, but because you secrete an enzyme in your saliva called amylase which begins the breakdown of carbohydrates, and also Lysozyme which kills bad bacteria in the mouth and in your food.
In the corporate world, people are celebrated for their ability to work through the night and back it up the next day wearing it almost like a badge of honour. But if you are not sleeping a sound 8-9 hours per night on a regular basis and bouncing out of bed in the morning refreshed, then I'm afraid your sleep is inadequate.
In terms of sleep's effects on body composition, it is important to note the importance of sleep on your bodies' hormonal homeostasis, as your bodies' circadian rhythms greatly affect your degree of insulin sensitivity, testosterone levels and growth hormone secretion. Poor sleep also lowers stress resilience and increases cortisol.
How do you go about fixing someones poor sleep? Asking that question is kind of the same as asking, 'How long is a piece of string?' There may be just as many reasons for the persons disrupted sleep as there are interventions you can take. Which is why a detailed assessment of the clients diet and lifestyle are required before taking any action.
The take home here: the better you sleep, the faster you recover; the better you feel and the faster you drop fat!
Christian endorsed Acetyl-L Carnitine as his number one go-to's in terms of nutritional supplements. Primarily due to it's ability to boost dopamine and acetyl-choline levels in the brain to increase motivation and training drive, as well as stimulating fat burning by carrying fatty acids into the cell mitochondria, your cells powerhouse, for energy! That's a major win-win!
Achieving a body transformation is never black and white, it can be a complex process just as people are complex beings. The real trick to it however, is having enough tricks in your toolbox to get the job done. The true beauty in the ELEMENTAL system, is how it reinforces the value of an holistic approach to health and body transformation.
Weight loss in particular, should be viewed as a side effect of health, as opposed to achievable through fitness fads, snake oil type supplements and aggressive nutritional protocols. We tend to put people on pedestals and think to ourselves that we could never achieve those kinds of results and personal transformations in our own lifetimes. Yet if Christian can take these methods and make them work for Hollywoods A-list, then it will work for you too!
If you ever have the opportunity to attend one of Christian's lectures, they come highly recommended! The good news is, that he will be returning to Australian shores in the near future lecturing again in 2017. Visit the gang over at ICON PERFORMANCE HEALTH for details on future appearances from Christian as well as many other upcoming courses.

Complete restrictions on hooking were definitely the most awful.
A research of woman of the streets in San Francisco located:
70% of the woman of the streets in the research study were raped approximately 31 times by their clients and also 65% had actually been defeated approximately 4.3 times (as pointed out in Carrasquillo, 2014
It has actually made the working problems for several uncontrolled and also for that reason unsafe with violent panders and also a constant clients packed with harasses that are not scared of the authorities or the regulation
Hooking functions the exact same method. Yes, some individuals might abuse hooking as well as wind up unfaithful on a companion with a woman of the street that they ought to not be ripping off on. It does not alter the truth that hooking permits a way of revenue for some that or else would certainly deprive as well as have a hard time without it.
They likewise have the capability to blend with each other and also produce hazardous fumes that eliminate individuals. They can likewise be made use of as an approach of self-destruction or eliminate family pets as well as pets that obtain right into them.
A recap from my essay:.
The research study insists that criminal activities linked with hooking exist due to the fact that hooking is prohibited as well as keeps in mind that locations where hooking is legislated have reduced criminal activity prices attached to hooking. The research study says that outlawing hooking intensifies the preconception bordering woman of the streets, making their victimization either unseen at best, or at worst, something they should have (Carasquillo, 2014).
It has actually boosted threat of Sexually Transmitted Disease's and also wellness dangers for the woman of the streets operating in these problems.
A comparable research in Oregon located:
78% of woman of the streets having actually been raped, 48% by panders approximately 16 times a year, as well as 78% by johns 33 times a year (as mentioned in Carrasquillo, 2014).

Within days, many of us will be winging cross-country to share holiday cheer with loved ones or hosting gatherings of our own filled with punch and pomp.
We will greet or be greeted along with everyone else in our clan - including the pooches. Many among our four-legged families will sport a winter coif and a wagging tongue. While Aunt Shirley bastes the turkey in the kitchen, Frisky tries to baste all comers with kisses.
Some among us will recoil in disgust or embarrassment while others will revel in Frisky's facial. Before arguments for or against this practice are flung about the room, it may be helpful to understand why a number of dogs are hell-bent on licking the freckles right off of you.
Ernest licking starts soon after the litter spills from the womb. It emerges as a social tool puppies use to greet and gather information about mommy and the rest of the brood. Often it is a gesture of appeasement to an elder or dog of "higher rank," a signal that they pose no threat. Most believe it is - at least in part - an artifact from wolfen days when it was easier for mom to barf out dinner when stimulated by her pup's lick to her lips than it was to drag a kill back to the den.
As pups mature, the frequent licking usually gives way to less in-your-face social behaviors such as side-to-side crotch and butt-sniffing. However, some young dogs will persist in feverish snout and lip licking despite corrections by dog elders. This kind of licking can be reflective of the petulant child who wants to get his way, right NOW! This is considered bad form in the canine world and is often met by a snappy retort.
Dogs like to lick us for many of the same reasons they like to lick other dogs. On the plus side, it is a show of affection and a nod of respect toward us as the keepers of calm and abundance. Part of their show of appreciation is to give us a grooming unlike anyone might get at the spa (who needs mud packs and cucumbers!). Numerous oral and nasal receptors allow dogs to "sense" our emotions and revel in our happiness or pull us out of despair.
Of course, licking has its self-serving motives for the dog as well. Quite simply, we taste good to them! They delight in our salty-sweet sweat as much as we delight in pecan pie. The mere act of licking is soothing to dogs; it provides one a way to self-regulate. And dogs love to be close to our faces to feast on our pheromones.
For some people, any licking by a dog is too much. But even for those of us who welcome pooch-to-pooch and pooch-to-person licking, there are some signs to be on guard for.
Incessant, desperate-type licking can be a sign of anxiety or a gastro-intestinal problem. Being vigilant for changes in environment and/or routine could offer clues to the former, while a trip to the vet is required to diagnose the latter.
As responsible pet owners/parents, it is up to us to detect anxiety- or obsessive-driven licking and remediate accordingly for everyone's sake.
When does licking cross the line? Blogger Colleen of dogtime.com has observed some not-so-well-heeled youngsters "herding" other dogs around with their tongues. Seeing more mascara on your dog's tongue than on your guest's frowning face is another clue.
If obsessive dog-on-dog tonguing is noted, immediate redirection to another enticing activity is recommended. Call the dog "off" from licking rather than correcting by restraint as the latter only intensifies the longing to lick.
To curb dog-on-person licking requires more finesse. Only you know how much is too much given your personal preference and knowledge of your social network's sensibilities. You may want to confine facial licking to yourself only and for a certain duration. If you truly love your dog but are averse to licking, facial snuggles and ear rubs can be equally satisfying displays of affection.
Training your dog to kiss on command is one way to ensure that guests with mixed attitudes toward licking leave your home content and grateful for their time with you - and every member of your family.

The following is a transcription of an interview with Gary Miller & Mick Tyas, on Radio Brussels, on 30th March 1993, at the very start of The Whisky Priests 'Bloody Well Live!' Tour.
[To begin the show, the whole band performs 'Perfect Time' live in the studio]
The Whisky Priests live in the studio with 'Perfect Time'. Gary and Mick from the band are here to talk with us. Hello guys.
Gary & Mick:
Hello! How're you doing?
You've just released your fourth album, a live album?
That's right, yeah.
I have the impression that like some other bands in the genre you play, you've difficulties to get the energy on a studio record and you can get it better on a live record?
I think the time was right for us to release a live album, at this moment in time. I think it probably is a better representation of the band than any of the previous albums. But, I mean, it's also been a question of finances in the past as well. I mean, basically, the first three albums, we recorded in the studio, didn't have a very big budget, so that didn't actually help, and we also had problems with the line-up of the band. It wasn't really the right people for the band that recorded those albums, but everyone was just right for this live album. Although we have a lot of experience of playing live, we still have a lot to learn about studio technique, but hopefully we can put that right with the next studio album. Hopefully we'll have more money to spend on the next studio album, but I suppose, to a certain extent, we have found it more difficult to actually get the energy across in the studio. It's not really the same as performing live, but playing live is very much what the band's about, really.
Maybe there's another reason, in the sense that a live record is a kind of compilation. There are three new songs and old material for the rest, of course.
Yeah, I mean, the live album is basically a representation. It was all recorded at one concert, of course, so it's basically a representation of the live set at that time, and at the time we recorded it, most of the set was basically old material, there were a few new ones, some of which have ended up on the live album.
I think it was time to get an album together, chuck all the favourites that people wanted onto one particular album and get them out the way and sort of, in a way, clear the decks for some new material for a new album. People have wanted it for a long time, a live album, and we've wanted to do one from the start, because we realise that our true performances don't come across in the studio, as we've already said.
And as far as the older material on the album is concerned, we also feel that the earlier recordings didn't actually do a lot of the songs full justice. We felt that the songs deserved, you know, a new sort of airing, if you like. We felt a lot of the old songs; we were actually playing them a lot better. We've actually done a much better job of those songs on the live album than we did with the original versions, so in that sense it's a matter of, like Mick says, bringing it all together and actually, you know, putting things to rights, as it were, regarding the previous stuff. But, at the same time, it's not really a 'Best Of', it's just a compilation of a live gig, you know, the live set we were doing at the time, and we just basically chose the songs from that gig that seemed to sort of have the best feel on the night. It was basically what we felt were the highlights of the gig, and the way it turned out, it was a selection of old and new.
The music you play sounds a lot of fun, but there's a serious side to your music as well.
Yeah, definitely. It's a way of taking a lot of more serious subjects and presenting them in a way people can sing and dance to. Obviously, we don't set out to be miserable and dour, but there are certain subjects we hit on but in a way people can enjoy. I think Gary probably has a different opinion to me, he writes the songs, in the main.
Well, Gary?
It's just a matter of conveying experiences; what we experience ourselves, from what we see around us. It's just basically, you know, telling stories of life as we see it, and there is actually a serious point to a lot of it because of the sort of world we live in, I suppose. But we're not trying to make any particular point or convey any particular message, I mean, we enjoy ourselves when we play the music, that's important to us, and we convey that, I suppose, to the audience when we do play. And, at the same time, the lyrics to the songs are important to us, the songs themselves are important to us, and if that sort of rubs off on other people, that's great. But we're not actually trying to say anything specific, you know, the songs just tell stories and life as we see it, really.
If somebody wants to sit down and listen to us and make sense of the words, well that's great. And if another person wants to get up and go crazy, stage dive to the same song, well that's great as well.
Yeah, OK.
So, whatever you want to do, however you want to interpret it.
That's right.
The whole band performs 'Easington' live in the studio]
'Easington' with The Whisky Priests live here in the studio.
Now guys, we were just talking about the seriousness in your music. You do stress a lot the region where you come from in England, the North-East of England, which is a region that is more or less neglected by London.
To a certain extent, yeah.
To a great extent.
You do make, in interviews yourself, the comparison with Scotland, but you're not better off, are you?
No, the North-East is a region unto itself. Scotland has its own identity, as does Wales and Ireland, and, in the same way, the North-East of England has its own identity but it's not a sort of identity that people are actually aware of outside the region. And we are actually very proud of where we come from, but at the same time, we're not trying to make any sort of point, we're not trying to be regionalist, and, at the same time, we're not trying to trivialise the area. It's just the way it comes out, I suppose. Most of the songs we write are telling stories from the point of view of the area where we come from, but they do, I suppose, have a more universal sort of outlook as well, it's just the stories themselves are actually set against the backdrop of North-East England.
What about the traditionals you do? Are they from the region you come from, or are they broader songs?
Almost all the traditional songs that we've recorded or played live in the past have more or less all been from the North-East of England. There might have been one or two, I think, that have been from outside the area, I know there was one song, called 'Jim Jones', which is an Australian transportation song, but all the others are from the North-East of England. And they're just songs that we know and they seemed to fit in with what the band was actually trying to do at the time. We don't actually play as many traditional songs now as we did before, mainly because we don't really feel the need to. We've actually made a point now of using the traditional songs, it was an important thing at one time. We couldn't just be a band that was using traditional instruments and singing songs about the area where we live, using the sort of culture and the history of the area for the actual storylines of our songs, and ignore the traditional music side of it. It was important to us that we did actually play some traditional songs. A lot of those songs are still relevant today. A lot of what those songs are about means those songs are worth singing. But we don't feel quite as much need to sing those songs now as we did maybe two or three years ago. We still play one or two traditional songs but not as many as we did.
Let's come back to this record of yours, 'Bloody Well Live!' It was recorded at the Markthalle in Hamburg, a venue of 1500 people. You will be playing smaller clubs in the next days now, in Belgium and in Holland, what do you prefer, small clubs or big venues like Hamburg?
We don't really mind, it's not so much where we play as who we play to. The audience is more important than the venue. Obviously, some venues are more suitable to us than others. There's no reason why we shouldn't have jus as good a concert in a much smaller club. I mean, the concert in Hamburg was great but we have a good following in that part of Europe. But we're looking forward very much to the concerts in Belgium because we've played one or two concerts in Belgium before, not many, but they all been very good, we've really enjoyed them, and the crowds have been great. Some of the concerts in the Netherlands will be in larger halls but we are looking forward to the gigs in Belgium, I think we might have a good time, we hope everybody will have a good time.
You like playing in the studio as well?
Well, not as much. (Laughs)
It's difficult to really get the feel of what we're trying to put across in our music. It comes across much better in a live setting. But maybe that's just something we've got to work on in the future.
Well, nevertheless we will ask you to play just one more song, but I'll just give the dates for the listeners…
OK guys, thank you for coming to the studio.
Thanks for having us.
Thanks for having us, thanks very much.
[The whole band performs 'Old Man Forgotten' live in the studio]

The Hummel Report
Investigative Reports That Get Results
A Rhode Island 501c3 Non-Profit
Under the Radar
More than 1,500 bills have already been filed in the several months of the 2013 General Assembly session. This week Jim Hummel emerges from a mind-numbing review of all of them to bring you some of the legislation flying under the public's radar: bills that will have you scratching your head and grateful that they have a long shot of ever seeing the light of day.
Close to 1,500 bills have been filed so far in the House and Senate in the first two months of the session. Oh, you'll hear plenty about gay marriage and elimination of the sales tax over the next couple of months. But this week - we're bringing you once again bills flying under the public radar. And my conclusion: it's probably a good thing that most of them will never see the light of day.
This year there are the perennial conflict of interest bills that would require all reps and senators to disclose any interest they may in a businesses that has legislation before the Assembly. Another bill would limit to $200 the amount lobbyists could contribute to lawmakers they appear before. But how about this one? A bill that would ban lobbyists from making any political contributions from January to July - the height of fundraising season. You think that one will make it out of committee?
Are you tired of having your car devoured by a pothole this time of year? or maybe a bridge that's been closed for year while the state tries to figure out how to finance the repairs. Well one state rep has come up with an idea that sounds way too practical: it would mandate that all monies allotted for bridge and road repair actually go for bridge and road repair - instead of into that big Black Hole known as The General Fund.
And think about this one next time it snows: a bill is pending that would allow DOT plow drivers to rake in as much overtime as they can - even if they called in sick earlier in week. It's funny how a cash windfall can make you feel a whole lot better...quickly.
Speaking of roads - you may have heard how hundreds of manhole covers were stolen last year in Providence alone. One senator has introduced a bill that would make it a felony. While a House bill would classify manhole covers as ``protected precious metals'' - along with bullion, coins and medallions - subject to a 14-day hold if somebody tries to sell them to a dealer. What is it that tells me the thieves are going to find a way around this one?
We all know the drill when it comes to an emergency, pull over while a fire truck or rescue vehicle whizzes by. One House bill we found would exempt the drivers of emergency vehicles from having to wear a seatbelt - just the people you want flying around unrestrained well above the speed limit.
Impersonating a public official or a police officer is a pretty serious offense. But one law would make it illegal to impersonate Rhode Island's attorney general. Which raises the question has anybody even seen the attorney general, or know what he looks like?
Finally five earnest House members have filed legislation that would create a commission to look at streamlining government - now that's never been talked about before, has it?. But let's think about it - one more group of people looking at whether we need fewer people to look at.
Fortunately there no bills have been filed this year to make Rhode Island a full-time legislature.
Not yet, anyway.

Valentine's Day week will be the final blow out for the Richmond Avenue staple Pietro's that has been serving up traditional Italian staples since Lyndon B. Johnson was president. Owner Pietro Eustachio broke the news in 2015 that he planned to close his namesake restaurant once the family found the right tenant to take over the building.
There's no word yet on what business might soon fill the space that's currently filled with classic red-checkered tablecloths and rich garlic aromas. In an email to Advocate columnist Patti Vinson, who penned a profile on the iconic Italian establishment, Eustachio's daughter Claudia Powell says, "My parents look forward to spending time their family and grandkids. After 55+ years serving Dallas patrons it was a difficult decision and made with much deliberation. Pietro's Italian Restaurant will be open through Valentine's Day week, doors will close Feb. 20."
Eustachio's love of family, especially his grandchildren, can be seen in photos all around the restaurant. The building has always been a family affair. He raised his children and the living quarters upstairs, and the business has always been staffed mostly by family members.
As Greenville Avenue became a nightlife hotspot, Pietro's stood strong as dozens of other restaurants came and went during its 50 years in business. It adds to the ever-growing list of recent restaurant closures in the neighborhood, including Vickery Park, Good 2 Go Taco, Clark Food and Wine and Cow Tipping Creamery.

At the end of the day, when the vows have been said, the lips have kissed, when the last strains of music have faded,(...) what's left?
I have a confession to make; I spend a LOT of time on photography forums ;) I love it because I get to hear life experiences, different ways of doing business, see TONS of different bodies of work, and hear lots of different questions.
One scenario I see happen quite often is an email that wedding photographers get from clients. The gist of the email is this "We LOVE your work, but we just can't afford the extra $500"
Now before I get to my response, I just want to say this; being on a strict budget is not a bad thing!! Everyone has a budget, and sticking to it is important, no matter how big or small that budget may be. :)
My solution, luckily, is quite simple and practical! Prioritize and itemize your budget!!! It sounds so simple, and yet so many couples don't do this at all! Simply put, when you are creating your wedding budget, make sure you put a priority on each item. So if your top priority is your dress, put a number 1 next to that. Here's the reason for prioritizing; a wedding budget is a fluid thing. You will likely have to move money around within your budget to make everything fit. Some things will cost more, and some things will cost less. So with a prioritized budget, you have a built in scale! You don't take away from number 1, you take away from number 10 to ADD to number 1.
Now one thing to consider when creating and prioritizing your budget; What's left? At the end of the day, when the vows have been said, the lips have kissed, when the last strains of music have faded, the last piece of cake has been eaten, the last bobby pin pulled out of your hair, the dress hung in the closet, the chairs folded up, and you are on your way to your honeymoon, what do you have left of the most special day of your life? Is that expensive meal you provided for your guest left? Are the fancy chairs you splurged on left?
Just in case you were wondering, it's the photographs ;) The photographs are what you have left. Years down the road when you want to remember your wedding day, you pull out your album. You see the expression on your husband's face as he sees you for the first time. You see the tears in your mother's eyes as she gives you away. You see the look of love on your father's face as he sways on the dance floor with his baby girl. You see the day, that moment that has been frozen in time forever, that was the beginning of your life together.

If you've ever worn a great pair of chandeliers, then you know it can be quite the challenge. You want your earlobes to remain perky and pain-free. But usually, these oversized and often heavy earrings cause big lobe droop, and that's not a pretty look on the red carpet or any carpet for that matter.
E!'s gorgeous host swears by BlingDots' foam discs that you simply adhere to the back of your ears. These discreet little helpers give you support against sagging chandeliers and sagging lobes.
"Awards season is always exciting, and BlingDots for earrings are my red carpet trick for wearing amazing chandeliers all day and night."
BlingDots ($$14.99 for 45 disposable pairs, 90 individual dots).
Looking for inexpensive, cute chandeliers?
Check out these adorable turquoise earrings from Aldo! Just $9.99.
We think Catt's BlingDots beauty tip is a smart one. Take it from us, we have had two surgeries on each lobe from wearing heavy chandeliers in the past. You don't want to go there. A little discreet support in the form of two small discs can make a major difference. Wish we knew about this a few years ago.

Our baby cries for hours every night!/
Why does our baby cry every evening? She's two months old and this has been going on ever since she was ten days old. Most of the day she is fairly content, but around 5:30 she starts to fuss and by 6:30 she's screaming. We often spend the next two hours trying to get her to calm down: walking, rocking, singing, and feeding, but nothing seems to help until she falls asleep at 8:30. She's mostly fine during the day but some evenings we feel like trading her in for a new model!
The evening hours with a young baby have been called the "arsenic hours" and it sounds as though you have figured out why. Most parents in your situation feel a combination of sympathy, frustration, inadequacy, and anger as their much loved baby howls her way through the evening. Like you, they try all sorts of approaches to comfort their newborn. Sometimes, by experimenting, parents find one approach that works for a few days. Often, nothing they try makes a big difference.
No one knows why young babies cry in the evening, but they do. It may make you feel better to know that when large numbers of babies were observed to see how much crying was "normal" it was found that many healthy babies fuss or cry for an average of two to three hours a day during the first few months of life. Babies' average crying time increases until they are six to eight weeks old and then gradually decreases over the next two months. The pediatrician who first described this crying as being "colic" also described babies who cried this way as being highly perceptive: they seemed to be extremely sensitive to stimulation and reacted with extended crying when their immature nervous systems were overwhelmed.
Sometimes parents think they have found a "cure" for crying that seems to work, but the "cure" was effective because the baby was getting older anyway!
Even though the crying usually can't be "cured", parents do find that some techniques work when others have failed. You are probably getting lots of helpful (and not so helpful) ideas from friends, but here are some that you may not have heard.
• Extra holding time: Holding your baby a lot when she's not crying may make it easier for you to comfort her when she starts again, but won't prevent her from crying altogether. Don't worry about "spoiling"--at this age, babies need a lot of warm body contact.
• Wrapping your baby: Some babies quiet down when they are wrapped snugly in a receiving blanket. This technique is especially useful for premature babies or for babies who seem very sensitive to their surroundings. If your baby can get her thumb or fist to her mouth, leave her arms free, since self soothing is one of the best skills a young baby can develop.
• Taking a walk outside: Many babies are quieted by the feeling of fresh air and motion. Experiment to see if using a stroller or front pack works better. Even if this technique doesn't work to stop the crying, you will find that you'll feel better getting out of the house and having some exercise.
• Playing background sounds or music that are steady, rhythmical and non stimulating: Some babies quiet to the sounds of vacuum cleaners (available on CDs now!), waves, or electronic meditation style music. The exceptional baby may actually soothe to loud rock music, but most parents have to settle for sounds that belong in elevators or massage studios.
• If you are breastfeeding, try eliminating dairy products from your diet. A few babies are sensitive to the protein in cow's milk that passes through into breast milk. If your baby has this sensitivity, you will see a decrease in her crying within three days. Other dietary offenders can be cruciferous vegetables like broccoli or bulk producing laxatives.
• If you are formula feeding, consider changing to a soy based formula after talking to your health care provider. Changing baby formula rarely makes a difference, although the formula manufacturers would like you to think it does. If you don't see a difference in three days, go back to the first formula.
• If your baby wants to nurse a lot but then cries after coming off the breast, it might be because her tummy is full and she just needs to suck for comfort. Let her suck on your little finger (if your nails are short!) or a pacifier instead and see if that helps. This kind of distress is normal and doesn't need any treatment. (If a baby is distressed after EVERY feeding during the day, she may have a condition called reflux that can be helped by frequent small feedings, positioning, and occasionally medication. Talk to your health care provider about this.)
• You might find this next suggestion intolerable, but please consider it. Let your baby cry without trying to comfort her: This response is very difficult for many first time parents. Parents of more than one child will tell you find that they often have to set a crying newborn down to cry alone when they need to attend to their older child. Often, parents find that when the baby is left to cry for about ten minutes she will go to sleep. Some babies seem to need a break from the parents' stimulation in order to calm themselves.
• Take a break! If your baby cries regularly every evening, you'll feel a lot better if you can occasionally give up her care to someone else. Choose a friend or family member that you trust--this is not a job for a teenage sitter!
Evening crying eventually decreases and then disappears, typically at about fourteen weeks in a full term baby. Nevertheless, while it is going on it is a very difficult problem. Get as much support as you can and enjoy your baby during the day so that you can keep your spirits up at night!

Photos from this trip can be found here.
By climbing these two peaks earlier in the season, we had the advantage of better snow coverage over the cruxes. There had been lots of recent skiing activities on the mountain, so we left our snowshoes behind. Snow travel in the lower section of Coleman Glacier was generally good, and ski and boot tracks were good and easy to follow. But depending on snow conditions on the glacier, getting from upper section of glacier to our camp on the Grant-Colfax saddle was more or less a slog. Although ostholing issue wasn't nearly as bad as we anticipated and we made it to camp in good time.
Wind was blowing in all directions on the saddle, so we didn't have many options for pitching our tents. After setting up camp, we quickly roped up and headed for Colfax Peak. Bergshrund below east peak of Colfax was visible from below, and we found a section with better snow coverage to climb over it. After getting over the crux, we traversed around the east peak on steep slopes before dropping down onto the saddle for the final ascent via Colfax's east face. We placed pickets along the way when terrain got really steep.
Summit was cold as wind continued to blow, but the breathtaking view took our minds off of the cold for a while. Gnarly looking Lincoln stood below us on the west, while Grant Peak staring down at us from 10781′. Alas, it was hard to leave the peak, but we needed to make it back down to camp before sundown for safety. The wind was relentless and it grew bigger as the evening turned into night. All three of us tried not to go outside of our tents unless it was absolutely necessary. We had a clear night sky, but my plan to do night photography was foiled due to constant wind gusts.
Next morning the goal was to leave camp for Sherman Peak at 8 AM, or whenever the sun had a chance to hit the south face of the mountain before we started. Traveling to the base of Sherman Crater Rim was very straightforward, as we roped up and efficiently crossed Deming and Easton Glaciers. Sufficient snow coverage on steep Squak Glacier allowed us to climb onto the saddle at the base of Sherman Peak's west ridge. From there, it was just a steep ascent with a picket placed 30-40 feet before the summit to keep from sliding down the south face.
Amazing views all round, especially view to North Cascades mountains on the east side. Baker was practically in our faces since it was a lot more closer to us than on Colfax. Summit wasn't very roomy, and apart from the constant wind blowing, we didn't stay for very long. After getting back down to the saddle, we proceeded to follow our tracks back down onto the glaciers and traveled back to camp.
Breaking camp didn't go as smooth as I had hoped, we were all still fighting wind that just wouldn't budge. It was early afternoon when we started leaving camp and it had gotten pretty warm
already. By then Coleman Glacier was much slushier compared with the day before and glissading was virtually impossible in most places. Of course, the wind finally stopped at the bottom of the glacier just before we got back on the trail.

Trish McEvoy Veil Lip Colour
Give me a good lippy and I'm good to go. I love how lipstick can wake up your face on a dreary winters morning and can take your look from day to night in a few seconds and I recently tried out a few lip shades from Trish McEvoy called Veil Lip Colour.
A lightweight formula, it offers great pigmentation and wear but with a silky soft barely wearing anything on my lip sensation. I tried it in the shades, Modern Rose, Wild Rose and Tea Rose.
Tea Rose, I would describe as light pink nude. Modern Rose, I would describe as a slightly deeper pink nude and Wild Rose, I would describe as a warm red.
I found the lipsticks to have good staying power and pigmentation with the lighter shades having less - I needed to touch up after about four hours post-eating. The texture and the formula has a nice creamy, moisturising finish to it and it's also fragrance free which is a big plus.
Trish McEvoy Veil Lip Colour is priced at £27.00.

It's hard to keep your ego under control – especially if you are a performer. First of all, you have to possess a certain amount of confidence, daring, and even chutzpah to stand up in front of an audience of 300 strangers. This is multiplied if they have not specifically come to see you and your show. Many of my now 1000's of audiences had come for a dinner and some speeches or awards. Most are surprised to find they are having entertainment. So, I have to take confidence and chutzpah to a new level if I want to win them over. And since they are usually sitting at round tables, I literally must get half of them to turn their chairs to face me. (Without actually asking them to). 45 minutes later, if I've done my job, I have transformed this assemblage of dinner guests into a laughing, reactive theater audience. (Roving wait staff notwithstanding)
While I'm performing it's easy for me to tell how much the audience is enjoying the show, but it's always nice if they come up to me after the show. It's great to get to see them up close, shake their hands and hopefully convince them that I do not behave like my lovable-yet-offbeat stage persona once I am offstage. People say all sorts of interesting things to you after a show. Aside from the usual "I really enjoyed the show", they sometimes feel compelled to tell me about another magician that they saw once, that did this amazing trick that they've never been able to figure out!". But when they say "YOU BLEW MY MIND" or "I HAVEN'T LAUGHED THAT MUCH IN YEARS", I feel truly happy.
So, a performers ego is constantly getting inflated, the deflated, and sometimes it's hard to keep an even keel. But, my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE story about post-show comments is something that happened to me in Las Vegas. I had been hired by a company to write and perform a theatrical-style show about their product, using magic comedy and audience participation. The show, which I performed 15 times a day for four days, was such a great success that they asked me back the next year. Only this time they had hired a new marketing firm that convinced my client that they should write the trade show presentation. My client insisted that the new marketing firm use me as their live spokesperson. The show they wrote was your run-of-the-mill trade show presentation, with me standing (in white tie and tails, no less), talking and reacting to a large video screen. No magic, little humor, and not very unique. I, of course, tried my best to ratchet up the entertainment value of the very dry script and the show went well, although it did not generate the response or the number of leads my show the previous year generated. So, here's the EGO CHECK. Somewhere in the middle of the four days an attendee came up to me after the show and said that the show was good, but last year they had a show that was really great. I quietly thanked him and explained that it was I that wrote and performed last years' show, and that I had nothing to do with the concept and script for this years' show. I felt vindicated… but only for an short while. For one hour later, a gentleman came up after the show and said that he really enjoyed this years' show, and that it was MUCH better than the one they had last year.
I may have forgotten to mention to HIM that it was I who wrote and performed the last years' show.

And now our President
an orange with two tiny thumbs
tweets on his fancy phone; Sad! Lies! Bad!
- -while we try to keep our sanity
through each breaking news story,
as if it really mattered what the big Orange T
Tweets, or what the Conway double talks or the Spiceman denies
(Everybody is lying, you idiot).
While this mogul with tiny thumbs
tweets on , his favorite Fox plays nearby.
And now he thinks Ted is lying.
And now its Crooked Hillary's fault.
And now Obama and fake news.
And he keeps changing the plot of the story.
And now it's the left wingers, and now the hard right
And now the fake news wringers with perfect straight teeth.
We can even see him through the curtain
playing with his phone
promoting the bigoted liar
to be boss of the judges;
picking the climate change denier
to be in charge of the environment;
making the famous doctor who once drove by a ghetto
in charge of urban housing and development
(it's easier than brain surgery after all).
Now guess who is in charge of crucial international diplomacy?
Why it's Vladimir's favorite oil Executive of course, who else?
And all this happens while we just sit
on our couches in front of TV's that spy on us
flipping from reality New Jersey, Atlanta and Beverly Hills housewives,
to human sharks, to survivors, to celebrity apprentices
and sometimes we even watch the sexually harassed
long-legged blondes playing referee
with ex- government employees now being paid
to mock debate how thetiny thumb tweets
will make America Great Again.
On Banon, On Kushner, On Priebus and
Goldmanite Sach'o'shits,
with Spicer, with Ryan, with Generals
and precious Ivanka,
Tweet away, dash away all
and to all
a gold golf club and long red tie
made in J'ina --
which rhymes with Vagina
with a G for Government City
which sometimes is in Florida, sometimes D.C.
but that trouble isn't for the big Orange T
who watches out for his fantastic family,
no, this big T is trouble for you
and trouble for me,
and spells out our
manifest destiny.
Which means
Dear Virginia,

GFFT Announces Formation of U.S. Faster Payments Council
A milestone in the nation's faster payments journey has been achieved! The Governance Framework Formation Team (GFFT) has launched the U.S. Faster Payments Council – an organization whose mission is to facilitate ubiquitous faster payments in the United States. The FPC will work with all stakeholders to:
- Meet evolving end-user needs by advancing the faster payments ecosystem;
- Drive the emerging faster payments infrastructure toward ubiquity;
- Foster a high-quality and secure user experience for all; and
- Support widespread use of faster payments.
By design, the FPC encourages a diverse range of perspectives and is open to all stakeholders in the U.S. payment system, including financial institutions of all sizes, payment network operators, technology providers, consumer and business end users, and a range of other organizations or individuals with a professional interest in payments. The FPC focuses on the broader mission of faster payments ubiquity while upholding competitive prerogatives and respecting members' ability to manage their own internal business operations.
As a solution-agnostic organization, the FPC is in a unique position to tackle challenges that may be more difficult to address through bilateral cooperation alone. The FPC aims to drive faster payments progress by:
- Focusing on the larger goals of safety, security and adoption of all faster payments, and advancing the future of faster payments;
- Enabling FPC members to broaden their reach and leverage their investments across a much broader base of transactions; and
- Creating safe forums for dialogue governed by strong anti-trust guardrails that support innovation, inform system design, and enhance cross-solution risk mitigation.
The GFFT formed the FPC in response to a key recommendation from the Faster Payments Task Force. In its final report published in 2017, the task force directed the GFFT to develop and implement a faster payments governance framework, inclusive of all stakeholders, to facilitate ubiquity of faster payments in the United States.
Read the press release for more information, including a list of founding sponsors and members.
Learn more about the U.S. Faster Payments Council by visiting FasterPaymentsCouncil.org (Off-site).
About Us
The Governance Framework Formation Team is a short-term work group established by the Faster Payments Task Force in 2017 to recommend a faster payments governance framework for the U.S. marketplace. The formation team has carried out its mission in accordance with Recommendation One (Off-site) of the Faster Payments Task Force Final Report (Off-site) – The U.S. Path to Faster Payments. Its objectives were to:
- Develop an initial faster payments governance framework that incorporates public commentary; and
- Establish the framework and membership.
Since mid-2017, the GFFT has focused on the structure, decision-making and processes of a governance framework for a new organization that would fulfill the task force's vision. After developing its recommendations, the GFFT sought industry input in April 2018 and received more than 1,000 comments from a diverse range of industry stakeholders during a 60-day feedback period. After considering the comments and deliberating further, the GFFT finalized the operating vision for a new organization, the U.S. Faster Payments Council (FPC). The FPC was publicly launched in November 2018. After fulfilling various establishment activities for the FPC, the GFFT expects to conclude its work in late 2018.
It was important to the task force that the members of the Governance Framework Formation Team represent all stakeholder perspectives. Members were elected from within the task force or appointed by the formation team itself and include qualified representatives from each of the defined task force segments.

Without Secure Moral Identities No Democratic Republics Will Survive/
Remarks prepared for Hudson Insitute/Bradley Foundation conference on "Democracy, Identity and the Nation State" See full video of the conference here. June 2, 2011
Democratic republics with creative economies have not proved easy to defeat in war. But more than any other regime they are vulnerable to internal self-destruction. The entire foundation of a republic is moral or not at all.
Republics of the American type depend upon citizens who maintain a firm understanding of certain foundational ideas – "a frequent recurrence to first principles," as various of our framers put it.
They simultaneously depend upon citizens who maintain a certain rigorous moral character, citizens well aware of things the law permits them to do but which on account of their own moral commitments they will not do: they will not lie, nor betray their friends, nor abandon their stated moral principles, nor shirk their duties. They will try to live worthy of the freedom endowed in their own souls, and entrusted to their own responsibility – inalienably. One of the foundational principles required for the survival of republics is the clear recognition that there is enough good in human beings to allow republics to work, and also enough evil in human beings to make republics necessary. In one dimension, republics depend on the ability of citizens to trust one another to hold firm to moral principles. In another dimension, republics dare not trust in perfect moral probity, for every man sometimes sins against his own principles, and for this basic reason all public powers must be divided, and all exercises of public power in the republic must be checked and balanced by other powers, as well as by other auxiliary methods. "In God we trust," yes, but for all human beings there must be checks and balances.
There are at least a dozen other foundational principles that citizens must understand and give flesh to in daily practice, to allow republics to function at all. So far as I know there is no single book listing and explaining each of these indispensable ideas. It would seem highly useful for republics to prepare many such books. Let even one single generation forget, or turn its back on first principles, and a republic turns out its own lights. That is why of all regimes the regime of liberty is most precarious, and requires eternal vigilance. Its transmission from one generation to another is fraught with peril. This transmission dare not be taken lightly, as it has been in this country since the 1960s. You cannot teach two generations to be ashamed of their own national principles, and expect those principles to endure. Principles do not endure in some empyrean, but in fleeting, historical human persons of flesh and blood, with all their frailties and still their capacity for noble action. You cannot teach youngsters to delight in vulgar, uncouth, and violent language, without reaping a whirlwind of domestic mutual contempt and violence. The connection between speech and action, gentleness of soul and gentleness of action, is precious.
Natan Sharansky hits the bull's-eye when he points out that a collection of personal relativists dissolves instantly into individual atoms, each of whom is enormously outmatched by totalitarian power. This is particularly true of those dictated to by rulers who declare themselves atheists, because they have turned their backs on their own civilization (Benito Mussolini, Adolph Hitler, Josef Stalin, Chairman Mao). Such rulers enforce atheism coercively, and soon produce many specialists highly skilled in breaking down the logic and psychology of atomized individuals whom they hold in isolation.
The difference between a mob and a people is that a mob is composed of a multitude of atomized individuals, whereas a people is composed of persons who have roots and connections with many associations that are intermediary between the state and the individual. A people is composed of persons who have social identity. [See Tocqueville on the French before the Revolution as a mob, without associations.] A person who has a firm identity does not sit before an interrogator as a lonely subject, stripped naked and shivering with fear. A person belongs to a proud people with a sometimes heroic (sometimes not so heroic) past, and sits before his interrogator not alone but in a communion of souls stretching back far into antiquity and far ahead into a potentially better future – when his interrogator will have been swept into the dustbin of ugly history. Sharansky's pages on this fact of experience are luminous, among the greatest in world literature.
Not only do republics rest on many communions of souls among their people – upon peoples, not upon naked individuals in mobs – but they each also have an identity of their own, different from that of other republics. John Paul II often concentrated on this characteristic of peoplehood, with its concrete historical destiny. Communism tried to isolate all individuals into sealed compartments, unable to trust even members of their own families, even their own beloved children. The overcoming of fear required that such individuals remember their own peoplehood, their own concrete history, their own quiver of arrows of strength and of weakness. In nine days in 1978 that changed history, he awakened the people of Poland to the memory of their own particular past and future destiny, and allowed them to see that there were many more of them than there were Communist apparatchiks. In Cuba, he again stressed the Cuba of history and particular future calling. Wherever he went, he first knelt and kissed that particular soil. He reminded the world that in identity there is strength, there is communion, there is a record of heroic actions to inspire one's own soul and hold it firm. Such an identity forbids anyone from feeling alone and ungrounded and weak. Pope John Paul II, Karol Wojtyla, called this phenomenon the subjectivity of societies and made it a first principle of Catholic social thought.
There he paired it with that other foundational principle: the responsibility of each person to reflect and to choose, to appropriate (to make his own) his own personal future, to take up responsibility for his own destiny. Each person is made in the image of God, not only called to understand and to choose and to act in history, but to become provident for his own future. Wojtyla called this principle the subjectivity of the human person. It is the foundation of republics, the seat of individual rights and dignity and responsibility. The subjectivity of the human person, the subjectivity of societies – they go together.
It might be nice if human ethical life dwelt in an empyrean of abstract universal principles, as in some empty-headed song by John Lennon. In fact, human ethical life is always incarnated in living persons, who are nourished by different historical communions. Human babies are not dropped down chimneys by some Universal Stork who has no particular history. No, each is born from the womb of one concrete woman, one "mother," with one pair of radiant eyes brimming with love. One woman, nourished in one people, in one primary language, in one set of stories told again and again, to inspire both whole peoples and noble individuals in every generation. It is an essential part of human nature, like it or not, to be finite, rooted, non-universal, formed in one particular primary communion of souls. That is why individuals not knowing their own actual identity seem shallow, weak, unreliable in a crisis – they are all alone, pretending to be universal, but full of hot air, in balloons easily popped by skillful interrogators, who show them how they are trapped in webs of their own easily confused, ungrounded logic.
2. The Identity of Citizens of the United States
Alexis de Tocqueville, like any other visitor from abroad, could not help noting how different America is from Europe along the fault-line of religion. In America, he wrote, religion and liberty go together. There was no ancien regime to overthrow, no need to jettison religion in order to make room for freedom. On the contrary, Benjamin Franklin proposed as the motto of the United States this maxim: "To rebel against tyrants is obedience to God." Thomas Jefferson knew that to express the full sentiment of the American people he needed to word the section of the Declaration of Independence dealing with rights in this way: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal, and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights..." The authors of the French Declaration of Human Rights thirteen years later, by contrast, abjured any connection between rights and the Creator; rather, they defined rights in opposition to any belief in a Creator. Well, that is the subjectivity of French society, and the firm connection between religion and liberty is the subjectivity of the United States. To understand either nation fairly is to understand this radical difference, and to grasp this strong identity of Americans as committed to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – the God our founders so clearly appealed to. For good reasons, as I explain in On Two Wings: Humble Faith and Common Sense at the American Founding, they wrote and spoke of "the Creator," not "the Redeemer."
Of course, no American citizen has to profess faith in this Creator, or to belong to a synagogue or church professing such faith. The public self-understanding of America affirms (look at the documents, particularly Jefferson's Bill for Religious Liberty and Madison's Remonstrance) that to choose whether or not to do that is one of the inalienable rights this particular Creator has endowed in us. One does not have to profess this express sense of identity for oneself, but one does have to understand that this connection between the Creator as described by Judaism and the American conception of liberty is part of the American identity. It is part of the identity even of the unbeliever, not as a personal commitment but at least as a historical reality locked in the identity of being an American. One might think of it as mythical, and as a quaint way of speaking of the simple, plain "reality" of individual autonomy. But it would be a self-mutilating denial if one were to deny that this way of identifying the American community is firmly embedded in countless official, public, founding documents (and in statements expressing a virtually unbroken public self-understanding right into our own time).
An authentic American identity does not command a personal affirmation of a faith one does not hold. All that it asks is intellectual honesty about one's own public history. One may find a different, perhaps unique, way of explaining this history, or even explaining it away. But there it is. Eppur, si muove.
Moreover, this "self-evident truth" put into a credible Declaration by Jefferson (and many writers of earlier local Declarations around the nation) carries with it a coherent vision of the human being, his or her relation to the Creator, and his or her relation to all other civilizations, peoples, and individuals. "One" Creator means one whole human family, in which every human person without exception is worthy of respect. Before time was, that individual person was known to the Creator, and allowed to be born among the particular people and in the distinctive civilization in which she now lives and moves and has her being. The narrative of the Jewish God offers a coherent vision of individual rights, honorable and plural social subjectivities, a whole universe of free societies mutually appreciative of each other, and yet each committed to arguing its own vision in the public square, and competing to generate humane cultures worthy of the greatness and goodness of the Creator who envisioned them from all eternity.
It is one of the virtues of the Jewish view of human nature and destiny (which is also in crucial respects the Christian view) that it ties together both the subjectivity of each human person and the subjectivity of societies. Moreover, it does not command homogenization, and certainly not coercion. On the contrary, its intellectual leitmotif (if not its constant historical practice) is the primacy of human liberty. "The God who made us, made us free at the same time," Jefferson wrote. Exactly right. And therein lies both the tragedy and the glory of human life, and the amazingly rich variegation of human history.
To deny the creative power and rock-bottom truth of human identity, and to see it outside the context of the one Creator who made us to be free, are both great errors in human self-understanding. The Creator made the whole human race at one and the same time both different from each other (in our individual persons and in our social identities) and yet participants in the common human destiny of liberty.
Sharansky avers that he trusts enemies self-consciously secure in their own identity more than he trusts those riddled with confusion and a muddled self-understanding. He finds more in common with persons whose views are radically different from his, but who try to live worthy of their own identity, with fidelity and courage, than with those who know not who they are, nor what their foundational commitment is. The latter are infinitely manipulable. The former have a compass, and between him and them there is an analogous story of fidelity and courage worthy of admiration.
Without strong moral identities, no republics will long stand. For if any republic is muddled about its own identity, or caught in paroxysms of self-hatred, its individual citizens will come to pieces, both with one another and deep in their own self-consciousness. Neither the republic nor its citizens have anything morally firm on which to stand. They are begging the strong to come and abuse them.
