An Evening with Jimmy Webb

Jimmy Webb is widely considered a living legend of songwriting. A leader and mentor in the industry, Webb is the only artist ever to have received Grammy® Awards for music, lyrics and orchestration. His songs have been recorded by some of the greatest voices of all time including Frank Sinatra, Barbra Streisand, Elvis Presley, Isaac Hayes, Art Garfunkel, Linda Ronstadt, Michael Feinstein and Judy Collins, not to mention his rap hit with Kanye West. Webb is one of those rare songwriters who manages to bring a genuine measure of magic to everything he touches.
In 2016, Rolling Stone Magazine listed Webb as one of the top 50 songwriters of all time. Jimmy Webb was the youngest person ever inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame and served as its chairman.
John McCutcheon
Thursday, Nov. 29
As one of the most respected and loved folksingers of our time, John McCutcheon's music evokes a profound mark of place, family and strength. The breadth of his talent is staggering. He is a master of a dozen different traditional instruments, most notably the rare and beautiful hammer dulcimer.
Much of his work continues to focus on writing politically and socially conscious songs for adult audiences. One of his most successful songs, "Christmas in the Trenches" (from his 1984 album Winter Solstice), tells the story of the Christmas truce of 1914. In his performances, McCutcheon often introduces his music with a story. He has become known as a storyteller, and has made multiple appearances at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough, Tennessee. McCutcheon's music appeals to people of every generation and background. Like a conversation with an illuminating old friend, his live performances are full of charm, wit and wisdom.

Influenced by iconic artists like Aretha Franklin and Mavis Staples, Foster has developed a unique sound that can't be contained. Infused with a little blues, folk, soul, rock and gospel, Foster's powerhouse voice and familial warmth will blow you away.

For two decades, Gretchen Peters has been one of Nashville's most beloved and respected artists. Sexy and sublime, angelically clean and devilishly dirty, blemished yet beautiful, Peters rose to the top of her craft by writing and recording songs that explore the deep corners of life with empathy and integrity. Inducted into the Nashville Songwriter's Hall of Fame in 2014 and named one of the best 60 female singer-songwriters of all time by The Telegraph, Peters has undoubtedly earned herself a spot among the country's upper echelon of contemporary composers and among her generation's most compelling singer/songwriters.
Royal Wood
Thursday, April 18, 2019
Since being named Songwriter of the Year by iTunes in 2008, Royal Wood has become established as one of Canada's most accomplished alt-pop singer/songwriters, producers, arrangers and multi-instrumentalists.

A virtuoso multi-instrumentalist and award-winning songwriter with a distinctive voice, Molly Tuttle has turned the heads of even the most seasoned industry professionals. Since recording her first album at the age of 13, Tuttle has accumulated various accolades, including most notably the International Bluegrass Association's Award for Guitar Player of the Year in 2017 – making her the first woman to win this prestigious award.

When I was little, I wore pajamas to bed.
Bright-colored pajamas with racing cars and trains and zoo animals on them.
As I grew up, or the pajamas wore out, I'd get new pajamas.
And the old clothes ended up in the rag basket.
For wiping up spills in the kitchen or drying my dad's car after we washed it.
I'd pick out the familiar tatters out of the basket and remember wearing them.
These days, I don't wear pajamas.
And I use sponges and paper towels for spills.
And use the automated car wash at the gas station.
When I was little, I wore pajamas to bed.

PSIGEN's solutions were built for flexibility and scalability.
We understand there's no one-size-fits-all AP solution for all organizations, so our products are designed to meet the needs of companies of all sizes and structures. PSIcapture can integrate with your organization's scanners, MFPs, fax servers and network folders, as well as your document repository.
PSIGEN's products can be scaled to suit growing companies, as well as those that need to downsize. It's fully customizable and flexible, making it the most sensible document capture option for Accounts Payable departments at any company.
Why Choose PSIGEN's AP solution?
Automated Invoice Processing
Manual invoice processing is time-consuming and expensive. PSIGEN's automated AP processing tools help companies experience cost-savings and improved productivity by eliminating tedious manual tasks.
Reduce the time spent processing an invoice and cut costs.
Example: The average cost to process an invoice manually is $22.75. If you manually process 1,000 invoices per month, or 12,000 per year, assuming your processing is the same as the average, invoice processing costs our business $273,000 annually. If you switch to automated invoice processing, the average cost to process the invoice is about $3.40, so the cost of processing the same amount of invoices for one year is $40,800. That's an annual savings of $232,200.b

How to Go to Sleep on Time: 10 Steps + on Tax News Online Report.
How to Go to Sleep on Time
Do you keep telling yourself that you need more sleep, but just can't seem to get to bed on time? Sleep is very important, but sometimes life is too busy or distracting. Here are some tips to help make your bedtime a healthy habit.
1 Determine how much sleep you need. Everyone's personal sleep requirements differ, and it's important to know your own needs so you can set an appropriate bedtime and stick to it. This may not be evident to you if you've been pushing your sleep to fit the rest of your life but the main indicator is feeling refreshed on waking. Too many hours of sleep can make you feellethargic and sleepy while too little can leave you feeling irritable and exhausted.Start keeping an eye on the time you go to bed and equate that with how you feel when you wake up. Don't check the time too often or it'll get worse. Try different times to see which bedtime gives you the optimal feeling when you wake up.
2 Figure out what time you need to go to sleep, taking into account the optimal hours you need personally and the time you need to be up each day.Determine when you have to be up in the morning and count back the number of hours of sleep you need. This is your bedtime.Use the sleepyti.me bedtime calculator to help you work out your best bedtime. It is found at:http://sleepyti.me/Be aware that even with the best of wills, most adults aged 18-45 and older don't function that well if they're not in bed by midnight (shift-workers excepted) and that the optimal going to bed time seems to be between 9pm and midnight.[1] There is even a saying that one hour of sleep before midnight is worth two hours after![2]
3 Don't balk if the time you need to get up is earlier than you want it to be. A time on the clock is nothing more than a number. Staying up past midnight is not a mark of coolness, and going to bed before 8:00 does not make you one of the kids. Time is what you make of it and the idea is to make the most of it and stay energized each day.Aim to always get up at the same time every day, no matter how badly you may have slept or how late you got to bed. Your body needs to establish its own regular routine and once this happens, the rest of your life fits around your sleep schedule.
4 Remind yourself of the reasons to get a good night's sleep. These include better cardiovascular health, decreased blood pressure and stress hormones, increased alertness and energy, better memory and clarity of thought, improved mood and less risk of depression, better appetite regulation, and more time for your body to heal itself from daily wear-and-tear.[3] If that's not enough to convince you, think of the downside of not getting enough sleep: your irritability increases, creativity plummets, you feel less inspired and you can become more stubborn, while you may also experience headaches, stomach upsets and other bodily signs.[4]
5 Plan ahead. Determine what needs doing during your waking hours, how much time the tasks require, and when you will be doing them. Schedule tasks into the time you have and don't add in additional tasks for which you do not have time. Time-adding tasks will also add stress and make it more difficult to get things done and get to bed on time. And remind yourself that though you may feel as if you're making the most of the day by doing more tasks, your ability to perform them efficiently wanes the longer you work at them and the tireder you become.
6 Make a bedtime routine.Keep it short, but a good routine will help both your mind and body relax and prepare for sleep. Do similar things each night that signal bedtime, such as cleaning your teeth and having a shower, having a hot drink, checking the doors are locked and maybe some meditation.Read How to have a good bedtime routine and How to get off a bad sleep schedule for more ideas.
7 Eliminate distractions.
Bedtime is not TV-watching time or internet-surfing time. If you like doing any of these activities later at nt, do them well before your appointed sleep time. However, it's not advised to use electronics in the bedroom as they disturb the peace of the bedroom and any such use in the hour prior to bedtime will keep you too alert to sleep. Reading however is good, it is calming and often makes you go to sleep quicker.
8 Make bedtime an appointment with yourself and go to bed.
Write into your diary if you must! Remind yourself of the benefits again, and just do it.
9 Look for the benefits. The better you get at going to bed on time and getting enough sleep, the more you will see these benefits in your life. You'll notice greater energy, a more positive outlook, faster thinking ability, better reflexes and all the other positive things that come with being alert and refreshed. Look for these positive signs and use them as motivation to continue with your good bedtime habit.
10 If nothing else works, use melatonin. It's a fast, effective oil that does NOT make you wake up drowsy.
Sleep can be affected by the seasons, with some of us needing more sleep during winter and less during summer.[5]
Before going to bed, turn on "do not disturb" mode on your iPhone or other tablet device. If you receive a text, email, or other alert, the phone will not make a noise, causing you no interruption throughout the night. Alarms will still sound.
Turn down the lights well before bedtime, including on your computer monitor, to ready your body for sleep.
Try to keep your waking and sleeping times consistent. Your body will become accustomed to sleeping at these times and it will be easier to actually go to bed when you get sleepy at the right time.
Remove all electronics from reach an hour before bedtime.
If your bedtime works out to be at a time that is still light or noisy, look for ways to reduce the noise or light in your sleeping room.
Exercise. The move your exercise/workout, the sooner you sleep. Cardiovascular exercise improves quality of sleep too.
Read a book. Read the income tax code.
Put an eye mask on if there is too much light in your room. This blocks the light out in all areas.
Meditate with twists of neck, holding each twist at least 4 breaths. This will immediately relax you and prepare for a good sleep.
Don't let others distract you from your bedtime. If they do, gently remind them that you have an appointment with yourself. It might help to explain your reasons. They might make an effort to get to bed on time, too!
Taking melatonin with certain other medications (such as anti-depressants) can be very dangerous. If you take medications, ask your doctor before taking melatonin.
Comfortable bed, right room temperature
How to Sleep When You Are Not Tired
You go to bed early, or for a nap, but for whatever reason, you're not tired or sleepy. There are many tricks you can use to relax your mind and body to make yourself fall into sleep mode more easily. If trying to sleep when you're not tired is a constant problem in your life, you can also change your routine to make it easier for you to fall asleep at night, even if you feel wide awake. See Step 1 below to get started.
Part One of Three
Relaxing Your Body
1 Adjust the temperature. The temperature in the room should be slightly cooler than what's comfortable for you. A slight drop in temperature induces sleep. [1] But don't let yourself get too cold, especially your feet; cold feet can be disruptive to sleep, so put on some socks. You may wake up and have to take off those socks in the middle of the night, but that's better than letting those cold feet keep you awake.
It can take several hours for your body temperature to cool down after exercise or exposure to excessive heat, so make sure your body is at normal temperature when you get ready for sleep.
2 Adjust the lighting. If you prefer a completely dark room, cover all lights such as digital alarm clocks, or any other electronic device in your bedroom that has a light on it. If you prefer to sleep with dim lighting, wear an eye mask or lower your lights until you are comfortable enough to sleep. Do not sleep with your lights on, as this disrupts sleep and makes it hard to become tired and relaxed.[2]
3 Adjust the sound level. Consider putting on some white noise (sound machine, fan blowing etc.), which has been shown to make people fall asleep more quickly. Also, people find the ticking of a watch or clock soothing. [3] If you prefer everything quiet, turn off anything that causes noise.
You can also consider wearing earplugs before you go to bed. It can take some time to get used to them, but they can help block out sounds you didn't even know were keeping you from sleeping. They can also be particularly useful if you share a bed with a partner who can wake you up.
4 Adjust your sleeping position. Keep your back straight, and make sure that your neck isn't resting too high or too low. Avoid sleeping on your stomach, as forcing your head to one side is hard on the spine and neck. If you sleep on your side, put a narrow pillow or rolled-up towel between your knees to keep your hips in a neutral position. Even turning from your right side to your left can help you fall asleep if you're feeling wide awake in the same old position.
5 Make your bed comfier. Swap your over or under-stuffed pillows for the ones you keep in the guest room. If your mattress is lumpy, flip it over or cover it with a foam pad or other blankets. The more conducive to sleep your bed is, the more likely you will be to feel ready for bed. We've all lied in a nice, cozy hammock in the sunlight and fallen asleep when we weren't even feeling particularly tired, haven't we? Well, a cozy bed can have the same effect.
6 Get some exercise at least three hours before bed. Go for a run, hit up the gym, take a long walk, or do some stretches to help you get your heart rate going before you ease into bed. This will work out your body and will make you more tired; doing this at least three hours before bed will keep your adrenalin from pumping right before bedtime and keeping you awake. If you work out shortly before bed, then you will feel more awake than ever.[4]
7 Avoid alcohol or caffeine right before bed. Though a glass of wine may initially make you feel drowsy, if you consume alcohol right before bed, then it will disrupt your sleep cycle and make you fall into a less deep sleep. If you do like to have a nightcap, just have it 2-3 hours before bed so it doesn't keep you up. As for caffeine, you should avoid caffeine after 2-3 pm, or ideally even after noon, because it can take up to eight hours for the caffeine to fully leave your system, which can definitely make you feel not so tired even when you want to fall asleep.[5]
8 Drink cherry juice. Or snack on a variety of other foods that are rich in melatonin, which are known to help you feel sleepier and to help you drift off faster. Though you should avoid eating right before bed or you may be up with indigestion or general discomfort, eating some of these foods a few hours before bed can help you drift off: [6] [7]
Sweet corn
9 Curl your toes. When you get in bed, curl your toes upward for a few seconds, relax them, and then repeat the gesture. This can help you relax your mind and your body, so performing a series of ten of these if you are feeling way too alert for your own good can help you fall asleep when you're not tired.[8]
10 Drink herbal tea. Herbal tea, whether it's chamomile or peppermint, has been shown to calm your body and mind and to help you feel tired and relaxed. Have a cup an hour or two before bed — you don't want to drink too much liquid right before bed or you'll be more likely to have to get up to urinate. If you make drinking herbal tea part of your pre-bed routine, this will help you fall asleep even faster.
11 Eat a healthy, lighter dinner. Get a healthy dose of carbs, proteins, and fruits or veggies with your daily dinner. Avoid spicy or overly heavy meals that are rich in fat or sugars, or your body will be more alert and uncomfortable throughout the night. Just a healthy, balanced dinner will do the trick in making you feel more tired. Make sure to eat it at least three hours before bedtime so your body has time to digest the food. Here are some great dinner options that can help you feel tired while still feeling healthy:[9]
Lighter pasta with cheese
Tofu with couscous
A glass of warm milk with oatmeal
A kale salad, salmon, and rice noodles
Part Two of Three:
Calming Your Mind
1 Recreate boredom. This varies from person to person, but whatever that activity is, it should lull your brain, not engage it. Slow, calming music lends itself well to this. Reading something that is completely uninteresting to you is good as well. Try reading the income tax code. Some types of puzzles or games may work as well, such as Sudoku or Solitaire. Listen to a very dry podcast. Play tic-tac-toe with yourself. Organize that stack of paper on your desk. Do whatever you think is the most boring thing possible.
2 Perform breathing exercises. Try abdominal breathing, yogic pranayam, or a one-minute breathing exercise. Close your eyes and focus on the breath falling in and out of your body. As you do this, picture each part of your body relaxing, one at a time. Focusing on your body will keep you from thinking about anything else from the outside world.
3 Visualize something relaxing and repetitive. For example, think of small, warm waves washing over your body at regular intervals to coincide with your breathing. Meditate to calm yourself and clear your head. Don't pick anything too exciting or thrilling, or you will start to work yourself up. Picture a calming beach, a gorgeous, lush forest, or a beautiful rose garden. Imagine yourself walking through it all.
Think of one of the most beautiful and calming places you have ever been to (a clear stream of running water in a field of wildflowers in the mountains to a peaceful lake). This should help you relax.
4 Read. Reading can help calm your mind and take your thoughts off of anything that might have been troubling you that day. Read something light and a not too gripping, such as the local news, a paperback, or a piece of historical non-fiction. If you read a gripping thriller or an emotionally disturbing news story, then that will keep you up even longer, and will make you feel even more awake if you just can't stop reading.
Challenge yourself and read the most boring thing you can find, from your old chemistry textbooks to a dry report about the state of another country's economy.
5Turn off all visual stimuli at least an hour before bed. Put away the iPad, phone, computer with Netflix all cued up, and turn off that television. Your eyes should begin to start to rest and to stop seeing all of the images that will make you feel more awake, jumpy, and less able to focus. Stop being the person who drifts off while watching television or with a cell phone in her hand and get rid of all of those high-sensory distractions, which are guaranteed to make your mind feel more alert when it's time for bed.[10]
6 Stick to the fifteen-minute rule. This rule is simple: if you've been lying in bed for more than fifteen minutes and are unable to fall asleep because you're not tired, then try something else. If you continue to lie there, your mind will continue churning, and you may even work yourself up and feel even more awake than you did when you first closed your eyes. Once fifteen minutes have passed and you're no closer to catching those z's, do something else that is not very taxing. Read a magazine. Pace around your room. Drink some herbal tea. Hum to yourself. Sit up and stare at your hands. Do something new and you will start to drift off.
Whatever you do, though, make sure to keep the lights dim — even reasonably dim if you're reading.
7 Avoid intense conversations before bed. Five minutes before bed time is not the time to get into a big fight with your significant other or to call up your best friend and complain about all of the stress you're facing at work in great detail. If you live with someone and have to talk right before bed, make sure you don't bring up anything more intense than the type of herbal tea you're going to buy at the store tomorrow. Otherwise, the conversation will make you feel even more alert and awake, and it will take you even longer to fall asleep.
If you live with someone who loves intense conversations right before bed, reschedule them for two to three hours before bed instead, if you can.
8 Think about everything you did that day. Another way to calm your mind is to go through everything you did that day, up to the most boring little detail. Start with how many blackberries you placed in your morning oatmeal and end with which quadrant of your teeth you decided to brush last. Try to break it down hour by hour and see how specific you can get and how many things you can end up remembering. Unless you're a superhero or an ER doctor for a living, chances are that this alone will be boring enough to put you to sleep.
If you've gone through your whole day and still feel wide awake, try going through your entire week. Surely that should be boring enough to make you drift off.
Part Three of Three:
Developing a Sleep-Friendly Routine
1 Find your sleepy time routine. If you want to feel tired when you want to go to bed, then you have to find a routine that helps you decompress and fall right into bed that starts at least half an hour before it's time to get some shut eye. This can include some light reading, listening to classical music, reading the newspaper, or doing whatever light, low-intensity activities help you forget your problems and start to recognize that your body needs rest.[11]
Once you find this routine, stick to it, and if you know you have to get to bed a little earlier one night though you're not tired, start the routine earlier and you can trick your mind into feeling tired a bit faster.
2 Go to bed around the same time every night. You may not be feeling tired because you're trying to go to bed three hours earlier than you normally do — probably because you have to wake up earlier. If you want to make it easier for yourself to fall asleep, then you have to get used to falling asleep at around the same time every night and waking up around the same time every morning. That way, your body will get used to feeling more tired at the same time every night or more alert at the same time every morning.
3 Only use your bed for sleeping and sex. If you want to regularly be able to fall asleep, even if you're not tired, then you can't watch TV in bed, do your homework in bed, talk to friends on the phone in bed, or do anything in your bed other than have sex or try to fall asleep. If your mind and body associate your bed only with sleep and sex, then it'll be easier for you to drift off when you close your eyes, instead of getting all worked up about the weird phone call you just got from your best friend or about all of the homework you still have to do.
Find a space in your home or room that is designated for "work only." This will help you save the relaxing stuff for your bed.
4 Get out in the sunlight as soon as you wake up. Once you roll out of bed, head for the window or the balcony as soon as you can. The bright light from the sun will tell your body's biological clock that it's wakey-wakey time, and this same clock will help you get to bed in about 14-16 hours, helping you stabilize your waking up and going to bed routine.[12]
5 Set aside a "worry time" for earlier in the day. If one of the reasons you don't feel tired when you go to bed is because you stay up for two hours worrying about your relationship, your health, your status at work, etc, then you need to work on setting aside a "worry time" earlier in the day so that there's nothing on your mind by the time you're ready to hit the hay. It may sound silly, but if you say, "I'm going to worry from 5-5:30 PM every day" and do nothing but worry, write down your worries, or say them aloud during that time, then you'll get them off your chest.
If you wait until bed time to slow down and really think about your troubles, then yeah, you're bound to feel wide awake for a long time.
6 Avoid hot baths before bed. Though many people think that nothing will help them fall asleep faster than taking a hot, relaxing bath right before bed, the truth is that taking that late hot bath will actually keep you awake for longer. Taking a hot bath will, not surprisingly, turn up your body temperature, which can take up to 6 hours to return to normal. And the higher your body temperature is, the harder it will be for you to fall asleep, so avoid those hot baths before bedtime because they will have the opposite of their intended effect.[13]
7 Kick fluffy (or Spot ) out of the room. Another way to develop a healthy routine that keeps you from staying awake for longer than necessary is to stop letting your dog or cat share the bed with you. Though you may love nothing more than the feeling of this furry, cuddly creature sleeping beside you, studies show that people who sleep with their pets have a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep because those cuddly creatures can wake you up in the middle of the night.[14]
You may think that having your dear pet next to you will help you fall asleep when you're not feeling tired, but it will actually make you even more awake
Tips ^^
Sleep with a large pillow or stuffed animal, because no one likes to sleep alone.
Cuddle up to your favorite stuffed animal, close your eyes, and think of anything that makes you happy.
Clear your mind of all thoughts, try to think of positive memories and visualise calming scenes.
Daydream. It will get your mind off of anything stressful or worrisome and just let you drift off into whatever world you create.
Use the bathroom to make yourself more comfortable and prevent having to get back up any time soon.
Lay still and relax. Close your eyes, and try to clear your mind.
Surround yourself with calm, peaceful things that may help you slow down.
Fluff your pillow if it's hard, so you can go to sleep.
If you wash your hair, make sure that the wet hair isn't pressing against your neck or you can dry it. Wet hair can be cold and prevent you from sleeping.
Have a warm beverage about an hour before you go to bed. Avoid coffee or anything with caffeine. Warm milk is usually a good choice.
Don't stress out about falling asleep, thinking "I have to sleep now or else…" This creates anxiety that prevents sleep. Instead, be laid back about it: "It'd be great to sleep right now, but if I don't, no big deal. At least I'll get some rest, and have a chance to relax."

China will further open up its service sector to foreign investors, the Commerce Ministry said on Feb 1.
The move is part of the country's long-term commitment to shift its economy toward a growth model driven by consumption, services and innovation, thus contributing to global economic growth.
Gao Feng, spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce, said: "The ministry will work together with the relevant departments to open up sectors including finance, education, culture and medicine in an orderly manner."
In addition, restrictions on foreign investors' access to the Chinese market would be further reduced in such fields as child and elderly care, architectural design, accounting and auditing, commerce and trade, logistics and e-commerce.
"These endeavors are made to create a more attractive investment environment for foreign investors," Gao said.
This year is China's 40th anniversary of implementing its reform and opening-up strategy since 1978.
"The best way to mark the anniversary is to take further measures to open up," Liu He, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Liu, who is also director of the General Office of the Central Leading Group for Financial and Economic Affairs, said China will continue to comply with the international trade rules, relax restrictions on market access and further open up its service industry, especially the financial sector.
It is "a confident gesture" to emphasize the opening-up of the financial sector, which would allow more foreign institutions to operate in China, said Zhu Ning, chair professor of finance at the PBC School of Finance, Tsinghua University.
"It shows that the country is keen to introduce more experience to improve corporate governance and risk management of the domestic financial sector," Zhu told Tencent News in Davos.
For years, China has been dedicated to shifting its economic growth model toward one driven by consumption, services and innovation. Data show these efforts are bearing fruit.
In 2017, China's service sector output increased 8 percent year-on-year, outperforming the national GDP growth rate of 6.9 percent, according to data compiled by the National Bureau of Statistics.
Li Jun, director of the international service trade research institute, affiliated with the Commerce Ministry, said the growth in the service sector output coincides with the country's decision to further open up to the outside world.
"The sector's opening-up not only requires the relaxation of restrictions on market access, but also makes the application procedures more transparent, regulated and simplified," Li said in a research note.

I'm here to inspire you to be your best self possible. Although my business is personal training I encompass mind, body, and spirit because each relates to the other. I committed myself to health and fitness over 25 years ago after both parents fell ill physically and mentally which in turn challenged their bodies, minds and spirits. It was a long road & I saw how important it is to care for your body via exercise, nutrition & stress reducing techniques i.e. meditation. I became passionate about self care & I hope to motivate & educate you on many health issues such as hormones, inflammation, low energy, starting a program & how to stay motivated.
In this blog I want to share a couple habits I have found to be incredibly helpful on my fitness journey.
I start each day off with drinking 8-10 ounces of water first thing – YES, even before my coffee. Your total body water percentage is an important measure of good health. The human body is made up of 55-65% water. Water is the primary building block of cells. It's needed to metabolize both protein and carbs, it lubricates the joints, and flushes waste. These are only a few reasons why water is so important!
I live by the 80/20 rule which means 80% of the time I eat incredibly clean: fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats. 20% of the time I eat whatever I want but in moderation – YES, even alcohol … in moderation.
I make exercise a priority – non-negotiable! And I know what you're thinking, "It's easy for you because as a trainer you're doing it all day long" - but the truth is it's just as hard for me to find time to fit in my own workouts as anybody. What I do is schedule my workouts as if I am scheduling a meeting with my boss. You'd never skip a meeting with your boss, right?!
Follow along on my journey! Find me on Facebook or Instagram.

About Ganesh
Expressing in Visual Medium always has been my first love. I was a good painter in childhood. Travel was another passion and I was always amazed by the play of light created by mother nature. My love for photography helped me in capturing those magical moments. The initial photographs taken on my first digital camera gave the confidence to this self-taught photographer to start commercial work using Pro-DSLR and a studio setup. Since beginning my works are published in International publications like National Geographic, sanctuary Asia and many reputed Indian publications in print and digital forms. Currently, I am an official reviewer for major products in photographic and lighting equipment made by leading International manufacturers.
Since last 5 years [ as a professional and full-time photographer ] I have focused chiefly on Wedding - Pre-wedding shoots and travel shoot around India. nothing makes me happier than seeing the joy on the faces of newlyweds and their family while seeing the wedding photographs for the first time. My journey from the Sony DSC-H50 [ my first digital camera in 2008] to the cutting-edge Alpha III ecosystem is a wonderful story in itself!

The Miami Heat will try to even up the Eastern Conference Finals tonight in Boston. And when they take the court, they will be battling more than the Boston Celtics. They will also be going up against history.
Since 1980, the Boston Celtics are 24-6 at home in the playoffs when they have chance to win a series. That is an incredible .800 winning percentage. And they are just as good in close-out games at home in the Eastern Conference Finals or the NBA Finals where they are a combined 8-2.
How are the Celtics so dominant home when they have a chance to finish off an opponent?
Of course, a big part of it is the players. But the Heat will also be facing the fans in the Garden. And there may not be a more electric atmosphere in sports than the Garden in the playoffs when the Celtics have a chance to finish a series.
Considering LeBron James and Company's reputation for underperforming under pressure, this doesn't bode well for Heat fans.

The Tigers Fast Running Squad are not taking a cold Canberra Winter's Day as any excuse for a rest. While others braved the indoors it was the sprinters of UC Ginninderra Athletics Club who left the spikes on the table and dived into the depths of sand running today.
Runners aged 12 to 45 years tried their hands at a fun but gruelling beach session at North Lyneham Beach Volleyball courts. The temperature didn't reach 8 degrees but these quick Tigers were showing a liking for their unusual off track work.
The pre-season preparation that the Tigers are putting in over winter is already showing plenty of return with Neil Thomas last weekend taking half second off his 200m time and 0.25s off his 100m time at AACT Winter High Noon. Our Masters get Faster squad member is really excited to be improving week in and week out. He now gets bragging rights at home over his son Eden - will it last?
This coming weekend (2-3 July 2016) UCGAC will put on another Winter Club Day for members and invited guests. So come along and experience fun, fitness and social competition with the Tigers this season.

Wally My history...
Wally is short for Waltraud, a nice German name that no one can pronounce - so Wally adopted me (maiden name was Schabestiel)- I was born in Kiel, a city in northern Germany on the Baltic Sea. At 8 yrs old I got onto a big boat with my mom, dad and little brother Gunter and ended up in Windsor Canada. My dad had already stated working in his own Auto Electronic business in Detroit when, as Canadian citizens, we immigrated to the states and settled in Garden City.
I must have gotten my entrepreneurial spirit from my my dad (Opa)! He also had a darkroom in the basement under the stairs in several of our homes and loved photography. I still have his 2 1/4 black and white negs from both Germany and the states when we were young - what a treasure!
They also had professional photographs taken at times - and I so cherish these.
Take a look at some of my favorites---
I graduated from Garden City West in 1967, went to Schoolcraft Community College and then graduated from U of M. (after getting married to Russ Spice, living in married housing on the Michigan State campus and then the U of M campus)
I have a teaching certificate in German and English, but spent the years with the my girls (Julie and Tracy) at home - with just some jobs in new home real estate and market research,
Wally is the matriarch that started this family business 20 years ago. and so proud of what it has become.
At that time, I had been photographing for the Masonic groups I was involved with - I was the official photographer for the OES (Order of the Eastern Star) for their yearly Grand Chapter Sessions and also did a lot for the Rainbow for girls ( A Masonic youth group) when my girls were active in it and I was an advisory and State Official. It was so exciting to get published in their little newsletters etc. That got me hooked. When I was going through a divorce during that time, I had to choose between taking a minimum wage job somewhere or following my dreams and start my own photography business. I decided to go for it and have never regretted it!
In the early years we were often published in the Bridal magazines, they would often contact us to see if we had any photos of something to go along with articles they were writing - these would then be published nationally in all the magazines across the country.
I have always been active in eh local and state photography associations - starting on the local level with the Detroit Professional Photographers Association (DPPA) I was on the board for 5 years and served as the president 2007-2008. So happy to see Julie follow in my footsteps as the current president and doing an awesome job.
We learned so much from the associations we joined - local statewide and national - from the speakers and programs as well as the other professional photographers who freely shared their knowledge and experience.
This is my third year for being on the board of directors for the Professional Photographers of Michigan (PPM)). Ed has recently joined the board also.
My youngest daughter lives in Alaska with her family and i have loved to visit over the years - some of my best travel/fine art prints have been from this beautiful awe inspiring state.

ME vs. Protesters[editorial]
Author: Brent Kim (I would like to remain anonymous if this is printed.)
A message to the protestors against military recruiting on campus:
Oh liberal/radical protesters of small stature! How does one have the male genitalia to protest against something you know nothing about? You! The one holding the sign saying, "Sign petition to ban military recruiters!" Did you ever have experience in the United States military services? I am presuming not since the way you walk and approach people telling them of your weak cause, make you look as though you have flat feet! Where is the proof of your flimsy accusations? One of them being, "They don't really give you money for college! They're lying!" I would like to see thee with thy own eyes standing next to one of the many veterans attending SMC with them supporting your cause. Another fantasy of mine would be to see you very protesters hiking in the California wilderness with more than 100 pound rucksacks on your backs. I doubt I will ever see the day, let alone you protesters being able to hold up your Styrofoam signs for more than a minute at a time. I also question the maturity of you protesters, especially the ones standing directly next to the military recruiters holding up your signs with immature little smirks on your faces that show a cry for attention. I believe you protesters are the typical, standard, liberal, un-life experienced, ranters that complain about everything. Since were on the subject of free speech, I believe your protest is amended and acknowledgeable, but one other right protrudes in my mind; that people have the right of choice, and if one does not want to join the military, one is not required to approach and talk to the military recruiters. That leaves the question, "What do you protesters have to complain about? The recruiters are just standing there ready to talk to anyone who approaches. They do not shove signs and recruiting paraphanelia into students' faces. Then what is your objection to the recruiters? Does their very presence bother you? I'll be honest, your very presence bothers me because of your weak cause, but I will not waste my inalienable rights trying to get people to sign a petition to get rid of you very protesters...or would I?...Nope, I won't. My cause would be weak, pointless, and based on personal preference, JUST LIKE YOURS.
Yours truly,
Mr. Furious

Bonnie 'Prince' Billy shares video for new single 'No Time To Cry'
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy shares the video for his single, No Time To Cry taken from his new album Best Troubadour.
The album is an affectionate homage to the Merle Haggard songbook landing on pages unmoored from their time and located anew. With such a prolific catalogue of work, Bonnie and the Bonafide United Musicians were tasked with representing an earnest and faithful reworking of Haggard's greatest songs.
Released on one of Merle's lesser known albums, 1996, the single, No Time to Cry is a truly poignant and deft reinterpretation of Iris DeMent's ballad on loss and growing older. To accompany the song, Bonnie and Co. have released a stripped down music video of footage taken during the live recording sessions for Best Troubadour.

We just barely answer any of these questions in this week's Triple Shot! Light week!
WRITER: Scott Snyder

Sure, it is Superman week with Man of Steel opening in theaters, and also this Snyder (Scott) writing the new Superman title, Superman: Unchained.
There's no reason for us not to go back to Wayne Manor for the origin of The Batman in Batman #21. This embossed cover comic is the first in the 'Zero Year' storyline—one meant to replace Batman: Year One in The New 52 parlance.
Fans of the Batman Begins will recognize a beat or two, from Bruce Wayne being away from Alfred for a period of time, but this story is all new, all different.
We're introduced to Bruce's Uncle Philip (Martha's Brother) who is running Wayne Enterprises. Also, we get an origin of the giant penny, shining in copper glory in front of Wayne Tower. We get introduced to the Batcave, Riddler, and The Red Hood Gang as well.
Intriguing story here so far but something is missing. I love seeing tales of Bruce Wayne training to become Batman, and let there be a million of them, please! Denny O'Neil and Edward Hannigan's Shaman delivers an awesome origin of the Batcave from Legends of the Dark Knight, set just before Miller's Year One.
We'll see how this susses out, Snyder sneaks in tropes of the Batman lore in interesting ways, but he only has one shot at telling the origin of Batman in The New 52. Trying to top the 26 year oldYear One could be daunting, Batman fans have held on to that story very tightly. Snyder's modernizations and imaginings of the Lucius Fox tech are already super cool here in issue #21.
THE BLACK BEETLE: NO WAY OUT #4 (of 4)
WRITER / ARTIST: Francesco Francavilla
Publication Date: June 13, 2013
Price: $3.99
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Buy it HERE
The first miniseries of Francesco Francavilla's The Black Beetle, which sold out of initial copies, concludes this week. The slick pulp detective superhero book will be collected in hardcover in the fall for a beautiful collected edition.
Francavilla's Eisner Award winning art coupled with his love for the noir pulp drama gives us a book based on a character that's both familiar and unique. You might assume this is a reboot or an old hero, but The Black Beetle who serves Colt City is an entirely original creation.
In this fourth issue, we discover the secret of his nemesis Labyrinto and the mysterious mob murders. A deep seeded revenge tale leads the cool looking Labyrinto to unspeakable deeds against friends and family, but The Black Beetle is hot on his trail, and has been for a while.
The Black Beetle will return, also in the fall for the start of a new arc, Necrologue. Francavilla is on to a hit with this Dark Horse series, we will be returning for more.

The 13 Artifacts of the Witchblade / The Darkness universe are being sought in the latest Ron Marz comic.
Defrocked priest and wielder of the Rapture Tom Judge along with The Magdalena and thief Michael Finnegan descend upon a mansion Norway, each hoping to get their hands on The Glacier Stone. A terrifying demon has been summoned to protect the stone and the three team up to scare the powerful demon into the woods after a drawn out fight scene in the mansion.
The speechless demon baits Magdalena onto some ice, where she ends up single-handedly slaying the demon with her Spear of Destiny. The Glacier Stone is lost to the depths of the ice to be found, presumably after the the spring season hits.
As a comic book fan, I couldn't have been less prepared for picking up a Witchblade title randomly from the shelf! My unfamiliarity with the book, and clean slate with the characters gave me a good perspective. Ron Marz can write an action packed comic and Turini is great at drawing the two major fight scenes as well. I enjoyed the supernatural elements that reminded me ofHellblazer, and thought the character design of the demon was quite spooky.
This was a solid comic that I didn't feel I needed a tutorial on Witchblade mythos to enjoy. Next month's arc starts off the brand new 'Geometry of Hell' storyline.

Oh my goodness it's the mother of all writing topics this week.
It is the mantra that everybody quotes, but very few explain. This is quite amusing since telling is all about explaining what happened in the story instead of illustrating it. It's also understandable because it's bloody hard to explain.
What it actually means is that you should evoke what's happening without needing to explain.
Yeah that's about as much use as telling you to show, don't tell isn't it?
One of my favourite online articles (linked in the link section below) calls it Seduction, not Instruction – and yeah that works too.
But in the end "Show, don't Tell" is best illustrated by Showing rather than Telling.
It was Linda's birthday party. Her classmates were there with gifts and everyone seemed friendly – but her low self-esteem insisted they were really there for the chocolate cake.
Showing (warning – written off the top of my head)
"Happy Birthday, Linda!" Sarah said. A brightly wrapped parcel was pushed under her nose. "Open it! Open it!"
Linda began to peel back the sellotape until she heard a snort.
"For goodness sake stop fussing!" her mother said.
"But it's a waste to tear it."
"You're keeping everyone waiting."
Linda looked up from the parcel in time to see Sarah's eyes flick towards the table with the food on it. She swallowed back tears. Typical! Her classmates weren't here for her, just the chocolate cake.
The second example isn't high art by any stretch – in fact it's pretty damned bad (as I noted I wrote it off the top of my head and it therefore comes with a dire punctuation and first draft crap warning) but it shows better than the first example which is pure telling. As a basic rule any time you summarise an event instead of writing it as a scene you're telling not showing.
That's large scale telling.
There's also small scale telling. This is things like using adverbs and adjectives instead of evoking what's happening. Now adjectives aren't always bad – if it's absolutely necessary that the reader knows the coat is brown (maybe the colour is a clue that will help solve the mystery once someone says it was blue and thus reveals they weren't there or something) then just say it's brown. But most often they are just not needed. Adverbs on the other hand are probably best avoided. Lot's of novels use them but saying something in a way that avoids them is usually stonger.
Take the following:
As Linda fell she desperately reached for the nearest branch and almost reached it.
and compare it to:
Linda 's arms flailed around her as she fell – her fingertips brushed the bark of a branch and she strained towards it, but her fist closed on nothing.
Again not high art at all(I should have written up some examples a few days ago but I've been busy outlining), but I think the second is a bit more evokative. The first bit needs more work to capture the desperation. I wanted to use blindly or wildly but those are adverbs too.
I can see myself editing this with a very red face in a few weeks, when it's rested long enough for me to edit those passages, and make them better.
Anyway Links that probably explain this better than me:
- Seduction, not Instruction Part 1
- Seduction, not Instruction Part 2
- Show, don't Tell (apparently it's the first rule of writing).
- Show, don't Tell, the story
- Learning as we go – article one (you'll have to scroll through the introduction to get to the article but it's worth it)

Overcoming a Segregated Background
The Future of Centrist Politics
Stuart Stevens and David Baria, a pair of prominent Mississippian figures from the two major parties, were at the Oveby Center to discuss the prospects for more centrist views at a time when American politics seem hopelessly polarized.
Stevens (on the right, with member of the audience Clant Seay), a native Mississippian who managed Mitt Romneys presidential campaign in 2012, and Baria, a Democratic leader in the Mississippi legislature, were joined in concersation with Charles Overby, the chairman of the center, and Overby Fellow Curtis Wilkie. Both Overby and Wilkie have long experience covering national politics as journalists.
Though a major player in national Republican circles, Stevens has become a fierce critic of President Donald Trump and his style of divisive politics.
During his tenure in the Mississippi House of Representatives, Baria (on the right, with member of the audience Jeff Roberson, an attorney with offices in Jackson and the Gulf Coast, has become one of the Democratic Partys most respected members in the legislature. Last year he served as the partys nominee in an unsuccessful bid for the U.S. Senate seat held by Roger Wicker.
The final program of the Overby Center spring lineup is on April 27. It will be a discussion about the segregationist era by three men who graduated from Provine High School in Jackson in the 1960s -- U.S. District Judge William Alsup, who now lives in San Francisco and is the author of a recently-published book, Won Over, Jackson attorney Danny Cupit, and Charles Overby. In his book, Alsup writes of his experiences as a child raised amid official segregation and his journey to become a civil rights advocate.
An Overby Center Conversation: The Truth About Fake News
Looking At The Father of Black History
To put an exclamation point on the celebration of Black History Month in February the work and life of Carter G. Woodson, an educator, historian and author who was known as the Father of Black History, was the topic of discussion at the Overby Center on Monday, March 4.
Burnis R. Morris, the Carter G. Woodson Professor at Marshall Universitys School of Journalism and Mass Communications and author of Carter G. Woodson: History, The Black Press and Public Relations, lead the conversation with Alysia Steele. Steele is an assistant professor of journalism at Ole Miss and author of Delta Jewels: In Search of My Grandmothers Wisdom.
According to Morris, Woodson was influential in the early years of the 20th century, enhancing opportunities for black Americans still emerging from the burdens of slavery. He encouraged newspapers to write about significant African-Americans, Morris recently told Time magazine. He believed racial discrimination would be lessened when whites and other races realized that African-Americans also made contributions to the world.
Woodson created an organization that is now called the Association for the Study of African-American Life and History. Woodson caused a revolution in the teaching of black history on college campuses, Morris said. He also chose February to be the time to emphasize black history because the birthdays of both Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass fell in that month.
Analysis of Politics During Mississippi Election Year
Top political Mississippi reporters, Emily Wagster Pettus of the Associated Press, a respected veteran of the statehouse press corps in Jackson, and Adam Ganucheau, who is carving out a strong reputation for his political stories in Mississippi Today, spoke on Monday, Feb. 18, with Charles Overby and Curtis Wilkie on this years statewide elections.
They provided early assessments of the various races including the upcoming battle for governor. Two of the states ranking government figures, Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, a Republican, and Democratic Attorney General Jim Hood, seem headed toward a major confrontation in the race for governor. And popular Republican Secretary of State Delbert Hosemanns campaign for lieutenant governor is being challenged by Oxfords state Rep. Jay Hughes, a strong-willed Democrat. Other candidates have expressed interest in these races as well as additional statewide contests that will be decided this year.
Both Pettus and Ganucheau are graduates of the University of Mississippi with degrees in journalism and have amassed extensive experience covering elections in Mississippi.
Judges Make Hard Decisions Every Day
Spring Programs at Overby Center Under Way
The spring programs at the Overby Center are now under way, featuring judges, journalists and authors.
Our programs feature a nationally known federal judge who grew up in Mississippi, journalists from The New York Times and The Washington Post, authors and political experts, said Charles Overby, chairman of the center. The programs offer a rich opportunity for conversations between the panelists the audiences on a broad array of subjects.
Each event will take place in the Overby Center Auditorium. The programs are free and open to the public, and parking will be available in the lot adjacent to the auditorium. The schedule includes:
Wednesday, March 20, 5:30 pm. THE TRUTH ABOUT FAKE NEWS
The chief media columnists for The New York Times and The Washington Post will weigh in on the fake news phenomenon and how it is not only undercutting a civil discourse in the country, but is also striking at the heart of our democracy. Margaret Sullivan of The Post (the former public editor of The New York Times) and Jim Rutenberg of The Times, a long-time political reporter, head up a panel on this issue that has gone from a funny catch phrase to a crucial challenge for covering the news. They will talk with Overby and Overby Fellow Greg Brock.
Wednesday, April 3, 5:30 p.m. THE CENTER CANNOT HOLD
Yeats coined the term 100 years ago in his famous poem, The Second Coming, but the expression applies today in the nations bitterly divided politics. Stuart Stevens, a Mississippi native and architect of Mitt Romneys 2012 presidential campaign, and David Baria, a Democratic candidate for one of Mississippis U.S. Senate seats last fall, will talk about the dilemma with Overby and Wilkie.
Wednesday, April 17, 5:30 p.m. OVERCOMING A SEGREGATIONIST PAST
U.S. District Judge William Alsup of San Francisco and attorney Danny Cupit of Jackson were white high school and college friends in the segregated environment of Mississippi in the 1960s. Alsup has written a book, Won Over, about how he broke through the segregationist status quo to become a civil rights advocate. He and Cupit will talk with legendary U.S. Judge Thelton Henderson of San Francisco, Charles Overby and Curtis Wilkie about their experiences.
The Overby Center for Southern Journalism & Politics' mission is to create better understanding of the media, politicians and the role of the First Amendment in our democracy. The Center is funded through a $5 million grant from the Freedom Forum, a foundation dedicated to educating people about the importance of a free press and the First Amendment.
The Overby Center features programs, multimedia displays and writings which examine the complex relationships between the media and politicians - past, present and future. The Overby Center pays special attention to Southern perspectives.
Adjacent to the newly renovated journalism department facility at Farley Hall, the Overby Center is a new building that features 16,000 square feet of conference space. It includes a 225-seat auditorium, a multipurpose conference room that will accommodate 100 people for seminars and dinners, and a boardroom seating up to 24 people.
The center has state-of-the-art technology and video throughout the building, including a news wall with nine large-screen TV monitors for showing live news programs and current front pages from 12 Southern states.
The center is named for Charles L. Overby, editor of the Daily Mississippian at Ole Miss from 1967-1968. Overby was the CEO of the Freedom Forum and Newseum until his retirement in 2012.

|Lawrence Booth | CPD
Lawrence Booth, 34, of Oak Forest was taken into custody after patrol officers recognized him from surveillance photos and conducted a street stop in the 12th (Near West) Police District this week.
Booth is charged with three felony counts of aggravated robbery - indicating the presence of a firearm and felony attempted robbery - indicating the presence of a firearm. He was also charged with felony possession of a controlled substance.
Booth is accused of:
• Robbing the Dunkin' Donuts at 1015 West Lake Street at 7:37 p.m. on October 14th. In that incident, a white male in a navy blue hoodie approached the restaurant's cashier, implied that he had a handgun, and took cash from the register, according to police.
• Robbing the Dunkin' Donuts at 201 West Lake Street while implying that he had a handgun at 10:11 a.m. on October 21st.
• Robbing the Supercuts at 810 West Monroe of its cash register proceeds while implying that he had a gun at 9:10 a.m. on October 19th.
|Bank robbery suspect | FBI
Booth was due in bond court on Friday afternoon.
On October 16th, police issued an alert to West Loop businesses that connected the robbery of a bank in the 900 block of West Randolph with the robbery of Dunkin' Donuts at 1015 West Lake and one other commercial hold-up. Booth is now charged with the donut shop burglary. But the 12th District CAPS Office today stated that the bank robbery is now believed to be a "separate, unrelated incident."
