Don't Be On Autopilot When it Comes to Autoimmune Diseases
By Natalie Miller Moore
Thanks to all the people who helped me find these interviews!
Women in their 20s and 30sare busy—they've got kids and jobs and stress. So when they feel tired, or achy, they tend not to think much about it. Too many times, women write off these symptoms as unimportant. But autoimmune (AI) diseases affect twice as many women as men, and they often begin to show up mid-life.
"When I was seven months postpartumwith my son, things starting getting weird. I had headaches, I'd get dizzy. When I had really bad pains in my hands and wrists—I thought they were carpal tunnel from holding him," said Betsy Lavin, 43, from Williamsburg, Virginia.
In Betsy's case, it was more than that.Her symptoms of fatigue and joint painpiled up, but she thought it was normalnew mother stress... read more over at the Health Journal.

Jack Hunt School is a co-educational foundation, comprehensive school and specialist language and sports college in Netherton in the city of Peterborough in the United Kingdom. Students are aged 11 (Year 7) to 18 (Year 13). Refurbishment of the premises, as part of the Peterborough Secondary School Review, increased the capacity by one form of entry in each year group, with a similar increase in the sixth form, amounting to around an extra 175 places.[1]
The school was officially opened by Alderman Dr. Jack Hunt, chairman of the Education Committee of the then Huntingdon and Peterborough County Council, after whom it is named.[2] Briefly, until education in the county was reorganised in 1976, it functioned as a grammar school.
Jack Hunt School became a Beacon school in September 1999 for an initial period of three years. Following a successful application to the then Department for Education and Skills, Beacon status was granted for a further three years with effect from September 2002. In 2004, Beacon schools came to an end nationally and Jack Hunt successfully applied to become a new Leading Edge School.[3]
In September 2001 racial tensions escalated at the school following the racist murder of former pupil Ross Parker in the city shortly after the September 11th Attacks. Three Asian pupils were suspended in October 2001 following an attack on another pupil[4] but the school and headmaster Chris Hilliard were later praised in Parliament for the way they managed to overcome such problems.[5]
On 16 January 2012, the school received a hoax call stating that a bomb had been planted on the premises.[6] Subsequently the entire school had to be evacuated. The pupils were left outside for hours, leading to numerous complaints from parents. In response, and as a token of apology, the head purchased a doughnut for every pupil.
Jack Hunt Pool is an 82 feet (25 m) dual-use facility, built on the premises but open to the general public. Jack Hunt is also home to Peterborough's Yamaha School. The school offers Keyboard, Guitar and Drumming to the community. In 2019 Jack Hunt opened a new block with a new dining facility, new classrooms and an all-weather astro turf football pitch.
Notable former pupils[edit]
- Fatima Manji, a Reporter, Channel 4 News[7][8]
- Aston Merrygold: member of boyband JLS.[9]
- Keith Palmer: better known as Maxim Reality, MC with dance act The Prodigy.[10]
- James Fox, Paralympic Rower. Part of team that won gold at the 2017 Paralympic Games.
- Louis Smith, Olympic gymnast. Whilst not a Jack Hunt student, Smith often used their gym facilities for training.[citation needed]

"Hello, is anybody down there?" I shouted into the darkness. But only my voice echoed back, the familiar sound reverberating off the stony walls of the cave's entrance. I waited, cupping my hand to my ear and hoping to hear voices or footsteps emanating from somewhere down in the dark depths of Skull Cave. The eerie silence remained as thick and heavy as its companion darkness, both seemingly ravenous, with little light and only the occasional sound of a drip of water or a fading echo making it beyond their grips.
Above me hundreds of steps twisted back to an arc of light, which was now only the size of a tennis ball in the distance. My hope was that I might see some other visitors beginning their descent.
The rock walls surrounding me were jagged and sharp-edged and looked more like the inside of a geode than the smooth tube I had expected would have been made from an ancient lava flow. Nothing seemed alive down there, instead the space felt almost sterile.
Above me, beyond the mouth of the cave, lay a sage-brush desert wilderness that was full of life. Although the harsh landscape is strewn with clusters of glassy sharp–edged, porous black stones, within those intimidating fields brave manzanitas and gnarled western junipers grow, as do tufts of meadow grass and the occasional but brilliantly colorful wildflowers and rabbitbushes. When I hiked quietly I found mule deer shifting between grazing lazily and standing alert, listening, when they noticed my approach. During my drive in the night before I had to slow my truck to a crawl in order to dodge thousands of daredevil kangaroo rats as they darted back and forth across the road.
Above, the sky at Lava Beds National Monument seemed bigger somehow — unconstrained by a valley of mountain walls or towering trees, able to stretch out toward the horizon on all sides, full of heavy cotton-ball clouds against an azure backdrop during the day and a velvet-black background scattered with shining sequins at night. Up there, out of the cave, was alive. But down where I stood it seemed the opposite, a world collapsing in on itself, vehemently expelling anything from the upper world of light. But looks can be deceiving.
I crouched on the metal stairs. A few feet ahead lay a line of darkness where the fading evening sunlight from above abruptly ended as if a curtain had been pulled across the path. I strained to hear something familiar. And that's when I heard it. Soft at first, growing louder as I listened. The sound was like that of lightly crumpled paper with a few clicks and high squeaks. At first I thought it might be coming from somewhere above, but as the noise grew closer it also grew in intensity. "Bats," I thought and flicked on my headlamp before starting down the stairs into darkness.
I'd never been to Lava Beds National Monument, which is located in the northeastern hinterlands of California, but I had learned some of its history when I studied geology and Native American history.
The Medicine Lake shield volcano, 30 miles northeast of Mount Shasta, actively spat out eruption after eruption some 500,000 years ago, resulting in one of the finest examples of a "recent" lava flow that exists on America's mainland. Strewn about the 46,000-acre park are – more than 700 lava-tube caves (dozens of which are accessible to hikers), fumaroles, conical cinder-cone hills, spiky spatter cones, pit craters, hornets, maars, streaming lava flows and expansive, nearly unnavigable volcanic fields. Reading about this place in books or viewing pictures pales in comparison with touching and feeling the earth's transformative powers encapsulated in molten stone.
Driving to the park I took Interstate 5 north, almost to Oregon, and then turned east on state Highway 161 through the Lower Klamath and Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuges. As I drove through the reedy, marshy wetlands the air erupted with swarms of butterflies and moths, awakened early by the year's shorter-than-normal winter. The air, smelling of sweet hay and wet earth, enveloped me as the marshes opened onto an enormous lake where the clouds of flying Lepidoptera headed. Unbeknownst to those flying kaleidoscopic insects, waiting for their arrival were uncountable birds that represented an unbelievable diversity of species.
Stopping my truck, I stood in awe at the lake's edge as waterfowl flocked in the air, floated on the water or gathered on the shore. The navy-blue surface of the water was only partially visible, scattered with dense clusters of shimmering green-winged teal that created a multicolored checkerboard-quilt pattern with groups of blue-gray cranes, white snow geese, and the earth tones of a dozen duck species, including wood, canvasback, goldeneye, mallard, bufflehead and others. There were coots, pelicans and even swans. In the sky, hawks, eagles and songbirds twisted and darted, feeding. Standing there I understood why the Modoc tribe, who had lived in this paradise for thousands of years, had fought so furiously to stay.
In November 1872 a six-month war broke out between the settlers and the Modoc, who were increasingly being displaced. The Modocs' war leader, Kientpoos — or Captain Jack as he was known by the settlers — gathered 50 warriors and 100 women and children within a natural lava fortress of deep trenches and small caves. At first the settlers and local authorities believed that sending a few hundred soldiers with guns would be enough to dislodge the group, but when they returned back to town bloodied and beaten, up to 1,000 more troops were commissioned and sent. In the end, 53 U.S. soldiers, 17 settlers, 15 Modoc warriors and five Modoc women and children had perished. The Modoc were overwhelmed by sheer numbers and the lack of supplies. Captain Jack surrendered and was hanged, while his people were sent as prisoners of war to the Quapaw Agency in Oklahoma, where nearly half soon perished of tuberculosis. In 1978 the Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma was federally recognized, and eight years later so was the Klamath Tribe.
"I am but one man. I am the voice of my people. Whatever their hearts are, that I talk. I want no more war. I want to be a man. You deny me the right of a white man. My skin is red; my heart is a white man's heart; but I am a Modoc. I am not afraid to die. I will not fall on the rocks. When I die, my enemies will be under me." — Captain Jack, Modoc Tribe
As I plunged deeper into the earth the temperature decreased steadily and the sound of the bats' wings increased. What had been stagnant, near-odorless air now stirred, bringing with it a musty, woolen aroma. I paused and took a deep breath. Reluctantly reaching up, I turned off my headlamp and braced myself. My feet stood firm, hands steady, palms dry. When I felt the first brush of wind near my face I kept my eyes open in the darkness, not wanting to miss anything.

Hot Tips For Staying Cool During Summer Running
It's' hot, hot, hot! If you are still running outside, here are some smart tips to make it more tolerable.
10 Tips for Summer Running
Sandal season has started. When you can't wear your orthotics, in order to keep your feet happy, check out these supportive sandals.
Science Friction: Get Rid of Blisters
Attention all athletes and parents:
Knee injuries are way too common. Get a biomechanical examination of your lower extremity today. Over the past 20 years, the number of young athletes presenting with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries has increased. This is primarily due to the growing number of children participating in competitive sports at an early age and being exposed to more intense levels of training.
Female athletes have the greatest risk of ACL injuries with rates 4-6 times as high as their male counterparts in similar sports. Some of these injuries may be prevented through new forms of training, a good biomechanical screening, and appropriate coaching.
Knee injuries, especially those involving the ACL, are a significant concern for athletes. The ACL is one of the 4 major ligaments that stabilize the knee. Its primary function is to help prevent the leg bone, known as the tibia, from sliding forward in relation to the thighbone, known as the femur. Its secondary function is to restrict excessive straightening of the knee and rotation of the knee. Additionally, the ACL protects the shock absorbers of the knee, known as the menisci, from damage that could occur while jumping, cutting, rapid decelerations, quick changes in direction, and pivoting in sports.
The consequences of ACL injuries include short-term disability, pain and a treatment phase, which involves surgery, and a 6-9 month intensive rehabilitation before returning to sports is considered. The potential consequences of an ACL injury may be more pronounced for girls than boys. A study of high school athletes found that compared with boys in similar sports, girls were more likely to have surgery and less likely to return to sports after an ACL injury.
The reason ACL injuries occur is complicated and sometimes not understood. Approximately 80% of the ACL tears occur without any contact with another player while the athlete is landing from a jump, decelerating suddenly, or quickly changing directions.
There are many risk factors involved in the ACL injuries. Some are from what is called extrinsic factors such as wearing shoes with long irregular cleats which increases the friction between the foot and the turf, weather conditions which affect the playing surface such as grass fields which are either too wet or too dry, and improperly attended to; as well as, other improper equipment the athlete wears which may change their body mechanics and the interaction this equipment has with the playing field.
The other set of factors are called intrinsic factors. These Include factors such as abnormal foot mechanics, imbalance in muscle strengths, muscle tightness muscle weakness, poor core strength abnormal knee position and hip positions. These are the things we will test for at your ACL screening and make recommendations to hopefully prevent injuries like this from occurring. Call the office today (610)522-9200 to schedule your preventative screening for knee injury. Thank you.

Quidel Announces Strategic Business Partnerships at ASBMR Conference; Specialty Products Group Expands Global Capabilities in Osteoporosis Products
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 26, 2005--Quidel Corporation (Nasdaq:QDEL) today announced at the 27th Annual American Society of Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) conference in Nashville, TN, that its Specialty Products Group (SPG) has secured strategic co-marketing agreements with Cambrex Bio Science Walkersville, Inc., based in Walkersville, MD and Nordic Bioscience Diagnostics A/S, based in Herlev, Denmark. These partnerships will leverage Quidel's global capabilities to collaborate with osteoporosis research institutions for the development of new markers which may benefit osteoporosis and post-menopausal patients.
"With these strategic business partnerships, Quidel is poised to advance the development of markers in the field of bone health and osteoporosis," said Noah Nasser, general manager of the Specialty Products Group. "These alliances provide a gateway for Quidel to fuel and further expand its growth and development in the global bone health industry, by tapping into new, international markets and sales opportunities," he added.
Quidel's two-year partnership with Nordic Bioscience Diagnostics is a co-marketing and sales alliance for promoting both company's diagnostic bone assays into the Nordic and Baltic states, creating a unique diagnostic solution for analyzing bone turnover.
In return, Quidel will sell Nordic Bioscience Diagnostics' Serum CrossLaps(R) ELISA (CTX-I, an in vitro diagnostic kit for measuring bone resorption) in the U.S. market. The tests will be positioned as a package for measuring total bone turnover (both resorption and formation). This partnership with Nordic Bioscience Diagnostics enables Quidel to provide clinicians and researchers with an unprecedented opportunity to measure bone turnover and better understand the underlying nature of osteoporosis and related diseases.
"This alliance positions both companies to further strengthen market leadership and increase sales potential globally," said Dr. Dagmar Kasper, head of sales and marketing, Nordic Bioscience Diagnostics.

Hi Everyone!
I'm down in Destin for my "mid-summer's dash in and refresh" time for my properties. This is the time of the year when I check up on housekeeping and maintenance issues, and I also restock my cleaning products, cleaning supplies, etc. In my cards this week I see some trips to the Wal-Mart (cleaning supplies), the furniture store (to replace a damaged chair), the linen store (to replace a comforter) and what trip would not be complete without a trip to my local Home Depot! And of course, I'll sneak in a bit of beach time too.
It's so refreshing to see all the tourists back in Destin this year. Remember these blog posts from last year? http://community.homeaway.com/blogs/christine/2010/05/07/gulf-coast-oil-spill-update It's hard to believe that this same time last year Destin was a bit of a ghost town. The BP oil spill was a devastating disaster with no end in sight. How quickly we all forget. Let's just say I am so happy that the worst of this is behind us. It seems that our loyal tourists are back this year.
With the amount of tourists in town, I would venture to guess that most owners here are having a pretty good rental year. But I know, at what price? Though the tourists are back, it seems that the oil spill created or should I say has exacerbated a monster—bargain hunters!
I did an inquiry analysis for my properties and from what I can tell; it's getting harder and harder to get quality bookings. In the past it used to take me 6-10 inquiries to get one booking. This year for my Destin properties, it seems to have doubled, tripled and even quadrupled. The one common denominator is people are shopping around for bargains. Do you think if we all double our rates next year and then run specials, "50% off" the renters would go for it? Ha! Probably not; but it's nice to dream about it.

If you're any kind of genre geek, you know who Bob Burns is. He is the keeper of the Wolfman (and the American Werewolf), the Creature, the Alien Queen, the original King Kong armature, the Time Machine, and a variety of classic movie props. He is also an incredibly knowledgable film historian who's forgotten more about monster movies than any of us will ever know. Take a look at his website if you don't believe me.
I've had the pleasure to be around Bob on a few occasions, and he's an absolute gentleman. And if you've got Wednesday, May 16th open on your calendar, you can meet the man yourself at Dark Delicacies in Burbank, where he'll be signing copies of The Ghost Busters: The Complete Series. That's right, the Saturday morning television show from the 1970s, which starred Larry Storch, Forrest Tucker and Tracy the Gorilla (trained by Bob!).

Car manufacturer Ford is often associated with trucks. Considering the fact that F-Series truck from Ford is amongst the best selling vehicles, it is quite obvious that they would want to maintain their reputation. So, it should not be surprising if the upcoming F-Series truck amazes the customers. When it comes to heavy duty trucks, the upcoming 2017 Ford F250 Super Duty will be redesigned by the manufacturer. It will be coming with lighter frame and body, more spacious interiors and upgraded technological features.
2017 Ford F250 Super Duty – Use of High Steel and Aluminum:
The Ford F250 for 2017 will have a complete boxy frame which will contain 95% high strength steel. According to the company, this new frame will be as much as 24 times firmer that presents one. It will also be including FWD components, axles and drivelines along with towing equipment.
The new 2017 Ford F250 Super Duty will be using aluminum body panels, just like the light duty F-150 truck. According to Ford, new frame made from high strength steel and aluminum panels will help in reducing the vehicle's weight by approximately 350 pounds. This reduced weight will be redistributed to other parts of the truck to increase its hauling and towing capacity, which is the actual function that a Super Duty truck is supposed to perform.
Cab Configurations and Trim Levels:
The 2017 Ford F250 Super Duty will offering Regular Cab with two doors along with a Super Cab (extended cab with four doors) and a Crew Cab configuration with four doors. For commercial purposes, chassis cab version will also be offered. This Crew Cab configuration will offer four conventionally opening full sized doors, while extended cab features rear hinged doors.
All these cab configurations will feature new interior design along with longer cabin, which results in more leg space. Crew Cab and Super Cab configurations will come with flat floors in second row, which makes loading large items in the cab easier.
Cargo beds will also be offered with lengths of either 8 foot or 6.8 foot. Trim levels of 2017 Ford F250 Super Duty includes XL, the base model, along with mid-level XLT model. Lariat serves as an upscale trim level while Platinum and King Ranch belong to the luxurious class.
Special Features:
While driving a truck like F250, the main problem could possibly be visibility, especially with a trailer attached. For this reason, this upcoming truck will be using as much as 7 cameras for helping the driver. Out of these seven cameras, four of them will be forming a 360° view around this truck, while another one will be mounted on rear of its cab above cargo box. An additional option of trailer mounted camera is offered for improving visibility while backing up.
Some common driver assistance features will also be offered by 2017 Ford F250 Super Duty, including lane departure and blind spot monitoring, and collision avoidance system. In order to offer better steering assist at lower speeds, a new steering option, which uses an electric motor, will also be offered. Multimedia options offered include latest generation of infotainment system and voice recognition from Ford along with a touch screen display of 8 inches.
2017 Ford F250 Super Duty – Powertrain:
2017 Ford F250 Super Duty truck will continue to use the current a gasoline 6.2 liter V8 or a diesel 6.7 liter V8. A completely new 6 speed transmission unit will be paired with gasoline engine. Even though power specifications hasn't yet been announced, V8 gas engine in current model offers 385 HP and 405 lb ft of torque, while diesel unit generates 440 HP along with 860 lb ft of torque.
Both these powertrain configurations will be available in four wheel or rear wheel drive system. Towing capacity is expected to increase up to 14,000 pounds for diesel unit and 15,900 pounds for gas engine.
2017 Ford F250 Super Duty – Competition and Pricing:
The 2017 Ford Super Duty will have traditional competitors in the form of Ram 2500 and Chevy Silverado 2500HD, while 2016 Nissan Titan XD is a relatively newer rival. Recent update to Chevy offer improved interior and better styling, while towing capacity and driving comfort has increased with Ram. Prices have not yet been revealed but introduction of new technology might increase base price for this truck. It will go on sale late next year with an expected starting price of $34,500.

Until We Meet Again by KD Robichaux
A Standalone Romantic Suspense Novella
Bounty hunters Justin, Kenton, and Nico did their job—catching and putting away the trafficker who had been kidnapping young women all over the state of Tennessee.

A few months ago, a friend and mentor connected me, Caroline Gikuru, to The Addis Clinic and after learning more about the work they are doing on the continent and what they hope to achieve, I was delighted when Michelle Turner, the Executive Director reached out to me to see if I'd be interested in joining the Board of Directors.
Having returned to Kenya after living in the US for a decade and a half and having worked in the non-profit sector, I understand both societies well and I could see how I can utilize that knowledge to be of service to the board. Furthermore, as a proponent of sustainable development, I was particularly drawn to The Addis Clinic's model of providing support to physicians and clinicians on the ground, as opposed to sending foreign doctors to do the work.
In my service to the board, I went to the Mufindi District in Tanzania at the end of March to meet with prospective partners. Since there had been prior communication with the prospective partners suggesting that a member of The Addis Clinic could visit the facilities in Tanzania, I ended up going as the organization's representative and to provide telemedicine training. Given the geographical location of Mufindi, access to medical care remains a challenge in this Tanzanian district in the southern highlands, because the villages are not close to major hospitals that can provide a wide range of treatment. Additionally, the communities are connected by rough, unpaved roads, making the journey to seek medical care more time and resource consuming.
During my time in Mufindi, I witnessed that the residents of that area primarily depend on subsistence farming or manual labor to make a living. Thus, their income is rather low and is typically allocated towards household needs and educating the kids where possible. So, when one is faced with dire medical needs, it can be challenging to even afford such treatment.
When I visited the Unilever Hospital, Mufindi Children's Village, Village Schools International and the Care and Treatment Centre – a local clinic, I met with physicians, clinicians and community health workers who provide health services to HIV-positive individuals, orphans, and the Mufindi community members. All health care providers were thrilled to hear about the work of The Addis Clinic, and that they can consult on difficult cases with physicians in the U.S. and receive feedback within a short period. The fact that this service would ease financial constraints brought about by referring patients to distantly located hospitals was particularly appealing to them.
By partnering with local clinicians, I believe that The Addis Clinic will be able to provide much-needed support in terms of consultations. The clinicians in this area will be able to reach more patients and treat them in a shorter time frame and for a lot less than before. I also believe that by allowing the local physicians and clinicians to remain the primary providers of care interacting with the patients, it fosters professional development and secures employment for the referring clinicians, and preserves the cultural integrity of the patients who get treated by people who understand them culturally.

Always be ours,
This day, O Lord, and evermore.

Robin + Myles: Engaged | Calgary Wedding & Engagement Photographer
These two simply couldn't stop smiling when they were together!
We shot Robin + Myles Engagement Session a couple of weeks ago & decided to go for two completely different looks... equally as romantic though!
We spent the evening at Reader Rock Garden (which for those of you who know me well, is one of my VERY favourite spots in the city) The flowers were perfectly in bloom and the mosquitos were thankfully, nowhere to be seen. We then headed downtown as the sun went down for a much more modern feeling among the angular glass & lights!
Love how they turned out & we can't wait to shoot your wedding this summer guys!!

- Page 1 Canon i-SENSYS LBP5100 Colour Laser Printer Review
- Page 2 Canon i-SENSYS LBP5100 Colour Laser Printer Review
- Page 3 Feature Table Review
- Page 4 Print Speeds & Running Costs Review
Key Specifications
- Review Price: £253.64
Canon has been going through a particularly good phase with its printer line up, both in the inkjet and laser printer markets, and it has a strong range of mono and colour laser printers in the i-SENSYS brand. The LBP5100 colour laser comes in at a very competitive price, but has too much been snipped away from its feature-set to compensate?
The slightly-sloping, blank fronts of Canon's i-SENSYS laser printers have become something of a trademark and this colour unit looks cleaner and blanker than most, thanks to a thin line of just eight LEDs at the top and no control buttons at all.
There's a 250-sheet paper tray right at the bottom, with a supplementary, single-sheet feed virtually at desktop level. A second feed tray with the same capacity can be added as an optional extra. Paper feeds out to a fold-up tray, which cleans off the printer's lines when folded closed. If you forget to open the tray before starting to print, pages fall harmlessly from a slot at the back of the printer, rather than jamming the paper path.
At the back of the machine there's a single USB 2.0 socket – Ethernet is only an option – and a power socket mounted inconveniently high up the printer's chassis, so the mains cable drapes across the desk.
Canon uses combined drum and toner cartridges, so setup and maintenance is very simple. Pull down the front cover and each of the four cartridges is lined up vertically within the case, with a transfer-belt attached to the cover itself. Cartridges slide in, in a silky smooth way and don't even need to be held in place by latches.
The software supplied is basic, but includes a driver that supports all the features of the printer, including duplex print, multiple pages per sheet and watermarks.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

Five Greatest Accolades across the World of Sports
Every league in the world of sport hosts a major awards evening of some sort at the end of each season to commend those who have excelled in the sport. So, now we will jump all over the world to uncover the most prestigious individual accolades that are available in a sport or in the top league of that sport.
Football: Best FIFA Player
Source: Luka Modric, viaTwitter
Football is, far and away, the most popular sport in the entire world, with the World Cup being the pinnacle event on the sporting calendar every four years. But, each year, legendary footballers and managers will be selected to a panel to decide who the greatest footballer in the world has been over the last year for both men and women.
Many thought that Cristiano Ronaldo would once again claim the award, but this year saw Luka Modric claim FIFA's Best Men's Player after a great season for Real Madrid and left the World Cup as the best player of the tournament with the Golden Ball award. Despite so many of the best female footballers playing for Lyon, it was Marta of Orlando Pride who claimed the Best Women's Player after coming second in assists and goals as well as being voted the NWSL most valuable player.
Ice Hockey: Hart Memorial Trophy
Source: Frank Seravalli, via Twitter
While ice hockey is enjoyed across much of Europe and North America, the NHL stands as the top league in the world due to the amount of money on offer and the drafting system which invites the best young talents from across the world every year. So, being named the most valuable player in the NHL sets the player as one of the best players in the world – which is exactly what the Hart Memorial Trophy does.
Players like Connor McDavid and Alex Ovechkin were in the conversation, but the conclusion of the 2017/18 season saw the New Jersey Devils' Taylor Hall claim the prestigious Hart Memorial Trophy. In the 26-year-old's second season with the Devils, Hall managed to score 39 goals and 54 assists. He carried his team to their first playoff berth since 2012, scoring 41 points more than his next closest teammate.
Australian Football: Brownlow Medal
Source: Melbourne FC, via Twitter
Australian football is immensely popular in its native land and is one of the most demanding and physical sports in the world. Every year, the AFL awards the Brownlow Medal to the player adjudged to be the best and fairest player in the league. Being the best is one thing, but being the fairest in such a high-contact sport requires some very special performances.
In 2018, Oddschecker saw Tom Mitchell as the favourite to take home the Brownlow Medal. On the night, it was indeed the Hawthorn Hawks midfielder who took the most prestigious award on offer. In the voting, he managed to edge out Steele Sidebottom of the Collingwood Magpies by four votes despite Sidebottom being a major factor in his team making it to the grand final.
Cricket: IPL MVP
Source: Cricket.com.au, via Twitter
One of the biggest annual events on the cricketing calendar is the Indian Premier League. Every year, the best short-form cricket players are drafted to teams for huge sums of money to compete for the title. It's the rise of the IPL which has been a major case in the argument of T20 cricket rising to become the preferred form of cricket – over one day and test cricket.
The Indian Premier League's Most Valuable Player award has been won by so many of the best cricketers in the world as the IPL attracts the best every single year. Greats like Virat Kohli, Chris Gayle, Sachin Tendulkar, and Shane Watson have all won the IPL MVP award, and in 2018, Sunil Narine of Trinidad and Tobago took the coveted prize on the ten-year anniversary of the league.
Basketball: NBA Maurice Podoloff Trophy
Source: Baseline Hoops, via Twitter
The NBA manages to attract players from all over the world to compete in the big-money North American league. Due to the way in which the league works, every team will have a star-studded player at some point during its existence, which means that many players compete for coveted individual accolades from different teams each season. The greatest of the individual awards is the MVP award, which sees the player hoist the Maurice Podoloff Trophy.
Recent times have been dominated by players from the Golden State Warriors, Cleveland Browns, and Miami Heat, with Stephen Curry and LeBron James taking six of the last ten awards. However, the conclusion of the 2017/18 season saw the star of a rising team take the MVP award. James Harden is the centerpiece who has enabled the Houston Rockets to be competitive against the ever-dominant Golden State Warriors in the West.
There you have it; five incredibly prestigious awards from the world of sport which recognize the very best players in the sport following their achievements in the season.

After three years in the wildly trendy Heights neighborhood, living in the long shadows of downtown Houston, we are heading to Pearland (yes, like the fruit), a relaxing, spacious suburb 18 miles due south. There's a Sugarland too — and there's also a Muleshoe, Texas, a Happy, a Hoop and Holler, a Turkey, a Noodle, and even a Ding Dong, Texas (Pop. 22).
Daily commutes will find us in downtown Houston five days a week, so we won't miss a thing the city has to offer. The workshop will be slowly packed up during the coming months with brushes, tools and machinery heading to storage for a bit, but it will all be whole once again and better than ever in late fall 2017.

The game was tight throughout, but Oberlin jumped out to an 8-2 lead in the opening four minutes. The Tigers responded with seven straight to take a 9-8 advantage and the Yeowomen grabbed a 16-12 lead at the quarter break. A 6-0 stretch midway through the second propelled the Tigers to a 29-27 halftime lead.
DePauw was ahead by three early in the second half after Melinda Franke hit a three on the Tigers' first offensive possession, but Oberlin came back with eight straight to take a 37-32 lead. The Tigers scored six straight to regain the lead briefly. Oberlin's Olivia Canning hit a free throw with 46 seconds left in the third to give her team a 44-42 lead, but DePauw's Maya Howard buried a three with 35 seconds left and then, after an Oberlin miss, she hit a jumper that rolled around the rim and fell in near the end of the period to give DePauw a 47-44 lead after three.
Oberlin was still within four with less than four minutes left, but Howard's 3-pointer with 2:54 remaining and three free throws from Sydney Kopp pushed the margin to double digits.
Howard led all scorers with 24 points in addition to a game-high five assists. Kopp added 13 and a game-high eight rebounds, while Budde followed with 10 points.
Canning paced Oberlin with 18 points with Abby Andrews chipping in 10 points and Tyler Parlor grabbing seven boards. Ally Driscoll led the way with four assists.
DePauw shot 46.2 percent from the floor to Oberlin's 43.6, and the Tigers knocked in 5 of 15 3-pointers and kept Oberlin from hitting in a three in nine attempts.
The Yeowomen were the first team all season to outrebound DePauw as they held a 30-29 advantage and they outscored the Tigers in the paint, 42-16.
DePauw opens NCAC Tournament play at home on Tuesday, February 20, when it hosts Allegheny at 6 p.m.

Happy fake Monday (Tuesday)! It's always tough coming back to work after a 3-day weekend, especially when the weather has essentially forgotten it's winter and decides to show up wearing 80° temperatures. I'm not complaining, but it definitely makes me antsy for spring and summer. BRING ON THE TANK TOP AND BOOTY SHORTS.
How was everyone's Valentine's Day? To be honest I've never really been much of a celebrator of this day, but this year felt different and I decided to embrace it a bit. My boyfriend and I exchanged gifts, and he got me a tank top and hoodie from Unbroken Wear. The nice part about dating someone who is also super into CrossFit is that it makes gift shopping easy and fun. He also woke up early before I was up, snuck out and bought flowers to give to me as soon as I woke up.
Yay flowers!
We mostly just spent the day together hanging out after I went to the barn to hang out (harass) my horse.
Then, he made us dinner which was deeeelicious – bacon, eggs and avocado. He made it last week too and I think it might be my perfect meal. This picture doesn't make it look terribly pretty, but it certainly is delicious.
Yesterday was a holiday – YAY – which meant I spent most of my day at the gym. We did a pretty tough partner WOD that took my partner , Shannon and I around 30 minutes…this was one that was definitely worse than it looked. Side note: I've had Shannon as my partner before and I love doing WOds with her! She is always so positive and puts forth so much effort. I don't have a photo of her, but she is just the sweetest.
Normally, these long chipper workouts are in my wheelhouse (I have an engine for sure, but the shorter/more intense workouts are harder for me) but this one definitely proved to be tough. Not undoable, just took a looooong time.
I also apparently have very poor time management skills, as I got to the gym around 10:45 AM with the expectation of doing my strength work for Barbell Bikini before the class/WOD listed above, as on Saturdays & holidays our gym typically only has one class that is only a long partner WOD (no strength work). But I pretty much just farted around for a good hour socializing before realizing it was 11:50 and if strength work was going to happen, it was going to be after that monstrosity. Not my best strategic move, but hey – sometimes it happens.
My strength work on Monday was to work up to a maximum weight on the following complex: 1 clean + 1 hang clean + 3 front squats. I worked up to 103, which normally would not be super heavy, but my legs felt pretty tired after all those double unders/wall balls/box jumps…basically everything in the WOD.
I genuinely don't realize how tall I am on a day-to-day basis until I see video of me doing things like this. I will never be as fast as I want to be, because I am so damn far from the ground. Grrrr.
That's it for me. How was your weekend? Did you celebrate Valentine's Day?

City Lviv Ukraine, Lviv tourism - Ukrainian tour operator
Lviv as a popular tourist destination - a great European city, an integral and crucial component of the image of modern Ukraine.
Being a part of Galicia and a real Mecca for tourism, the city of Lviv in Ukraine had considerable historical path of development, having had terrible shocks repeatedly. The external face of the city, developed tourism, living space, numerical and national composition, occupation and culture of its inhabitants were changed not only over the centuries, but also due to historical changes that have occurred over more than 750-year existence of the city. From the mid of XIII century Lemberg was an important political, cultural and economic center of Ukraine, and now it is also a prominent tourist destination. Unlike other capitals of his time, Lviv always kept its prominent role in Ukraine over eight centuries, regardless to which state or empire it belonged. Leopolis remains the same to today - the center of culture, spirituality and tourism in Ukraine.
Modern Lviv - a great cultural, scientific, industrial center of Ukraine and the city whith actively developing tourism. Due to its advantageous geographical location, preserved traditions, intellectual potential and developed tourism Lemberg has good prospects for development of culture, science, tourism and trade in Ukraine. Located near the border of Ukraine and the European Union, the city of Lviv is an ideal place to meet with colleagues from other European countries, this is the reason why business and recreation tourism is very good developed in Leopolis.
Special attention to the city attracts architectural heritage, old buildings that breathe history, narrow streets and eternal temples, cafes that smell good coffee and sunlit areas - all this creates additional interest in tourism in the city of Lviv. Please note that the ensemble of the historical center of the city is included in UNESCO World Heritage List.
However, Lviv due to its geographical location in Ukraine and historical tradition should play an important role in the relationships of Central and Eastern Europe, its cozy cafes and restaurants are an excellent base for informal meetings, exchanging views and experiences and of course for the tourism in Lemberg.
Please contact us directly for the exact costs as all depends on the dates, hotels, guide's availibility etc... Thank you.

The much anticipated, brand new 2011 Accords are finally here. Even better news? They're on Sale! Come to Shockley Honda and ask your sales consultant for more details.
The Honda Accord Sedan and Coupe have returned with exciting, innovative, and sophisticated features. Best of all, gas mileage is better than ever. Honda said the new Accords will impress customers with a one to three mile per gallon increase in its fuel economy ratings.
Some of the major changes for the Sedan include a rearview camera and USB Audio Interface for an iPod. A leather trimmed interior, upgraded wheels and new taillights are just a few of the other upgrades that the new Accord has to offer.
The Accord Coupe takes "sporty" to a whole other level. Within the interior, a new race inspired paddle shift on V-6 models with automatic transmission increases the performance tremendously.

The State Monad: A Tutorial for the Confused? - Brandon.Si(mmons)
I've written this brief tutorial on haskell's State monad to help bridge some of the elusive gaps that I encountered in other explanations I've read, and to try to cut through all the sticky abstraction. This is written for someone who has a good understanding of the Maybe and List monads, but has gotten stuck trying to understand State. I hope it's helpful! The Data Declaration: To understand a monad you look at it's datatype and then at the definition for bind (>>=).
Introductions to advanced Haskell topics
Many people bemoan the sharp divide between experts and beginning Haskell programmers. One thing I've noticed is that "advanced" Haskell topics all have one thing in common: there exists only one good tutorial on that topic and only the experts have found it. This post is a collection of links to what I consider to be the definitive tutorials on these topics. Monads Monads are technically not an advanced Haskell topic, but I include this topic in the list because the vast majority of monad tutorials are terrible and/or misleading.
IO: You may say I'm a monad, but I'm not the only one!
One of the things I love about Haskell is its tools for abstracting computation. There are so many different ways to look at a given problem, and new ones are being invented/discovered all the time. Monads are just one abstraction, a popular and important one. When you're learning Haskell, you're told 'IO is a monad', and whether or not you understand what that means, you start to see the significance of binding impure values, returning pure ones, using do notation, and so on. I thought I was a pro at monads after discovering liftM, but I still hadn't really made the jump to understanding monads in general, rather than as something specific to impure IO operations.
The sequence monad
I'm currently reading the excellent tutorial on monads here: and paraphrasing it to help me understand. You may prefer to look at my earlier post first. This is a follow-up to that. We've already seen that ((fn [a] ((fn [b] (* a b)) 2)) 1)
Why I'm betting on Elixir
Background: I've spent the past 6 years building web applications in Ruby and the Rails framework. I've flirted with new programming languages as they came out, but Elixir is the first language that has been able to captivate me. Ruby Crushed It! The ruby language and the Rails framework completely changed the way web applications were built; it started a religion of values that the community cared about. It pioneered the idea that the tools programmers use should be optimized for developer happiness and productivity. It made the bold challenge that it is developers' jobs to make sure their code was adequately tested and worked.
Haskell/Understanding monads
Monads are very useful in Haskell, but the concept is often difficult at first. Since they have so many applications, people often explain them from a particular point of view, and that can confuse your understanding of monads in their full glory. Historically, monads were introduced into Haskell to perform input/output.
Abstraction, intuition, and the "monad tutorial fallacy"
While working on an article for the Monad.Reader, I've had the opportunity to think about how people learn and gain intuition for abstraction, and the implications for pedagogy. The heart of the matter is that people begin with the concrete, and move to the abstract. Humans are very good at pattern recognition, so this is a natural progression. By examining concrete objects in detail, one begins to notice similarities and patterns, until one comes to understand on a more abstract, intuitive level. This is why it's such good pedagogical practice to demonstrate examples of concepts you are trying to teach. It's particularly important to note that this process doesn't change even when one is presented with the abstraction up front!
Programming with impossible functions, or how to get along witho
A recent paper by Hyland and Power speculates about an alternative universe in which languages like Haskell develop along a path in which monads don't play a starring role. This post will be about making tentative steps in that direction to see what developer-friendly alternatives might exist to solve problems like writing code using I/O in an elegant and readable manner. I think all of what I'll say was worked out 20 years or more ago but there may be some good reasons to think about this stuff again.
Elixir, ReactJS, and the Technologies That Will Rule Until 2020
My name is Ken Mazaika and I'm the CTO & Co-founder of The Firehose Project. I'm a strong believer in the idea that the software development environment is evolving at such a fast pace that it's far more practical to learn the fundamentals instead of the next group of cutting edge technologies. However, beginners will often ask about the future of web development. And it makes sense.
In earlier parts of the book, we have made a few passing allusions to monoids and the Monoid type class (most notably when discussing MonadPlus). Here we'll give them a more detailed look and show what makes them useful. What is a monoid?[edit] The operation of adding numbers has a handful of properties which are so elementary we don't even think about them when summing numbers up.
Monads, lifting, join, and side-effecting actions.
While playing around with querying ElasticSearch I bumped into something that I hadn't really understood explicitly before about monads, nesting, and IO. Rather than blather on, I'm going to share a "literate" ghci session that demonstrates the point. Main editing change I made was to remove duplication in the output from querying the type :t in ghci. import Network.HTTPimport Control.Monad (join, liftM) let url = " Importing the HTTP client library, a simple one based on IO.
the Monad
I'm currently reading the excellent tutorial on monads here: and paraphrasing it to help me understand. The simplest monad is let, the identity monad. (let [a 1] (let [b 2] (let [c (* a b)] (let [d (* a a)] (let [e (+ (* b b) (/ c d))] (let [f (+ c d e)] (let [g (- c)] (* a b c d e f g)))))))) The let above represents a complex computation. During the computation, values are computed, names are bound to values, values are used as inputs to functions. Values could also be pulled in from the global namespace, and side effects could be produced.

The key discipline for your change management strategy is to ensure your insights platform is used. At Market Logic, we help clients create awareness inside their user communities with training programs that are designed to make each user feel comfortable using the software and motivated to do so.
To achieve this, focus training around two themes: creating a sense of familiarity with the software and knowing when it's relevant to use.
Of course, each software comes with some training, but it's generic and not helpful. It's more of "click here, go there" – with no further instruction. Why not go one step beyond to train your users to not only learn how to use the software, but when to use it and for which purpose and business problem.
To do this, your training curriculum has to leverage company language. At Market Logic, we kick off the onboarding process by interviewing key stakeholders and representative users to learn your language. For example, one company might say ad hoc research while another says primary; in the same way, one might have a consumer and market insights department, another a strategy and insights team.
We also train teams separately – with different examples and exercises for research, marketing, and R&D teams. Even within departments, we see different user groups with specific business needs, so it's never a one size fits all approach. For example, one group might need to mine copy test KPIs to guide new creative for a brand, while another wants to explore general trends that impact the whole category, and another still is hunting down past pack design for an emerging product class.
One of my clients uses our software for ad hoc research while also storing brand activity reports and one-pagers on the insights platform. This way, the software becomes the single source of truth to compare and review all brand activities, when the time is right. What better opportunity than the annual brand planning season, when every marketer in the business has a ton of "what do we know about …?" questions and the need to constantly refer to key guidelines.
To bring a sense of familiarity and timing to every user, personalization is key. Here it's super important to personalize with a purpose, so landing pages are tailored to give each user group immediate access to the content they need. Of course, this helps to further push content and modules across user groups.

Living with migraines
Living with migraines and chronic pain can bring a feeling of disconnect that not everyone understands.
Inspired by Earth Day on Sunday, I was desiring to feel more connected to the universe around me.
SO, today, I listened to a podcast - a TEDtalk radio hour about how our Earth is thoroughly connected. Below is the podcast which is a compilation of snippets from multiple TED talks ranging from topics like "re-wilding" to whales. It also discusses the theory that our earth is liken to one giant organism - each species playing it's own role in the functioning of the earth. This podcast will surely have you in awe of our earth, and the role we play in it.
Just like our Earth is one organism, so are we. Our bodies are incredibly complex and connected. Migraines are not singular in nature- typically not being triggered by a singular thing or involving just a singular part of our bodies. That is why a holistic approach is so important. The more layers of support and defense we can give ourselves through lifestyle modifications, the more equipped we will be to fight migraines.
Listen, be inspired, and let me know what you think in the Comments below.
We are stronger together.
