For anyone looking for a well made, reliable, and fast tactical vest, this one is more worth it's weight in value! It's a one size fits most, though it just fit me tight enough to get myself into some fast action gameplay, and it's pretty snug, even for a very thin guy like myself. The best part is that it's all molle, so adding any kind of molle accessories is a must! The back is open however, giving you better ventilation, though it does nothing to blunt the BBs to the back, which is not as fun, but it's airsoft. The fact that its so sturdy for its given price makes this an awesome buy, what's not told in the videos is the inner pouch that can hold glow lights, papers, or even magazines, though the snug fit Might make it uncomfortable, having a few mags pushed up against your chest can be a bit annoying.
Overall this is more than worth picking up, with such a great value, including its discounts with the coupons, you can't go wrong.
Sturdy build
One size fits most
No back plate (also a pro)
Excess straps dangle
K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple, Stupid) is what comes to mind here. I like having the flexibility of being able to customize my loadouts and that I only bring into the field what I need and not worry about having excess "stuff" getting in the way.
1. Simple to use and to wear.
2. Lightweight
3. Allows me to customize my loadouts.
4. Good protection against bbs fired from a close proximity.
1. I hope I don't get shot in the back.
Fits almost anyone perfectly due to the ajustabilty of the straps. It can carry all my gear and I have about 6 or 7 pouches on it.
Can carry all my gear
Plenty of spaces to add more stuff
Can have a backpack on the back if you want
No place to put a hydration carrier (Can have a backpack)
Some Straps on the inside but not a big deal
|Is this compatible with the Hydro Harness?

Jachai Polite Jersey
, N.Y. (AP) —whatever bitterness he once had toward the Green Bay Packers in preparing to face his former team for the first time since his departure."I've got nothing but love for the organization," Hyde said following practice as the Bills (1-2) prepare to travel to play Green Bay (1-1-1) on Sunday. "I wouldn't say it was a wound. I wouldn't say I was cut open."And yet, that's exactly the opposite of what the sixth-year player told two reporters in November, some 10 months after signing a five-year contract with the Bills in free agency.Hyde was so upset upon learning the Packers weren't going to make an offer to re-sign him with six games left in the 2016 season, he said: "It was like someone stabbed me in the back."Standing alone at his locker Wednesday, after insisting he bore no ill will toward the Packers, Hyde broke into a laugh upon being reminded of his previous comments."Do you have proof?" he asked, before acknowledging what he said."Maybe," Hyde told The Associated Press
Chuma Edoga Jersey
, "I put a Band-Aid on it and it's healed up since then."As a team leader, Hyde is in no position to stir up bad blood or create bulletin-board material in preparing to face an Aaron Rodgers-led offense at a time Buffalo's defense is beginning to show signs of jelling.After allowing 75 points and 653 yards through the first six quarters of the season, the Bills have bounced back by allowing nine points and 375 yards over the past six quarters.It's a stretch capped by a 27-6 win at Minnesota on Sunday, in which Buffalo forced three takeaways and limited the Vikings to 14 yards rushing — matching the second-fewest allowed in team history."I feel like the last six quarters was our brand of football," Hyde said. "The first six quarters, I can't answer for that. But it's good to see we're making strides, getting better."And he understands the progress can be easily derailed by Rodgers, even if the quarterback might be limited by a left knee injury."I'll take Aaron Rodgers hobbling over most of the quarterbacks in the league," Hyde said. "He still has the intelligence
Trevon Wesco Jersey
, has the arm. He's going to get it done regardless."Rodgers hasn't forgotten what Hyde can do either."Look at the time he spent with us. He played corner for us and made big plays. He played safety and made big plays, returned punts," Rodgers said. "You hate to see a guy like that go."Packers coach Mike McCarthy called Hyde "a stud," while saying there was "a business aspect" to why Green Bay didn't re-sign him.Hyde played a jack-of-all-trades role during his four seasons in Green Bay after being selected in the fifth round of the 2013 draft. He played safety and cornerback and also returned three punts for touchdowns.That wasn't enough for the Packers to keep him, which led to the Bills making Hyde an offer on the first day of the free-agency signing period.Hyde immediately formed a bond with safety Jordan Poyer, another free-agent addition, and rookie first-round pick cornerback Tre'Davious White.The three combined for 14 of Buffalo's 18 interceptions, tied for the sixth-most in the NFL last season. Hyde had a career-best five interceptions to earn his first All-Pro selection by being named to the second team.He credited his success to being able to focus on playing just one role, while also fueled by how his tenure ended in Green Bay."When a team doesn't want you
Shareef Miller Jersey
, and basically tells you straight up they don't want you, it's kind of like motivation to keep getting better," Hyde said.The secondary has struggled this season by having already given up seven touchdowns passing, after allowing just 14 last year.Hyde hopes the Bills can build off how they played against Minnesota.What he doesn't care for is having the focus placed on his return to Lambeau Field."We're 1-2, coming off a big win. We're trying to get this thing rolling," Hyde said. "It's not about Micah Hyde going back to Lambeau. It's about the Buffalo Bills playing the Green Bay Packers for a win." NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Saints left tackle Terron Armstead and Eagles defensive end Michael Bennett are active for their NFC divisional round playoff game Sunday, setting up a key matchup of prominent starters trying to overcome physical ailments in the playoffs.Armstead, who has been hampered by a pectoral injury since Nov. 11, last played part of New Orleans' victory over Pittsburgh on Dec. 23. He appeared to aggravate the injury during that game and went to the sideline early.Bennett had been listed as questionable for the game after practicing on only a limited basis on Friday because of his foot injury.Three other Eagles who'd been listed as questionable —linebacker D.J. Alexander (hamstring)
Zach Brown Jersey
, receiver Shelton Gibson (hamstring) and tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps) — also are available to play.All of the Saints de-activated for the game were healthy reserves: tight end Dan Arnold, running back Dwayne Washington, linebacker Manti Te'o, offensive lineman Will Clapp, defensive end Trey Hendrickson, offensive lineman Derek Newton and receiver Austin Carr.Philadelphia deactivated receiver Mike Wallace (ankle), linebacker B.J. Bello, defensive tackle Bruce Hector, cornerback Sidney Jones (hamstring)

Alba-Technic Developing Innovative Hip Protecting Device
[WINTHROP, ME – March 2018] Alba-Technic, a Research and Development firm in Kennebec County, has been awarded a $225,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support the development of the Hip Defender™, a hip protector for the elderly that features advanced materials and technology infused with a fashionable design.
Hip fracture is one of the most serious fall-related injuries in older adults, with a high rate of mortality and disability. Within one year following a hip injury, 20% of elderly die and 30% of community dwellers are placed in nursing homes. Accordingly, hip injury prevention in the elderly is an increasingly important health concern, yet "technology has not significantly improved the design nor protection of hip protectors currently on the market – they are still bulky, and uncomfortable, therefore, most people will not wear them," according to Alba-Technic CEO Jim Ferguson. "With this award, Alba-Technic will build upon our patented EVO2™ impact resisting system to design the next generation of hip protectors that people will actually want to wear, thus preventing countless hip injuries and even deaths," asserts Ferguson.
This NIH grant is the latest addition to Alba-Technic's growing list of funders, which already includes the Maine Technology Institute, National Science Foundation, National Football League (NFL), Under Amour, NIST, and others. High-profile collaborators will be working with Alba-Technic in development of the Hip Defender™, including world-class researchers at the University of Maine, Orono Center on Aging, UCLA Professor of Medicine Dr. Steve Castle, and Industrial fashion designer Claudia Rebola Ph.D.
Alba-Technic, LLC is a small business committed to developing personal protective products based on its patented shock-absorbing technologies (EVO2™) that help prevent serious injury. The Hip Defender™ will be a non-stigmatizing, aesthetically pleasing hip protective wear that protects elderly persons susceptible to falls. The Hip Defender™ is the company's second product and is an important next step in Alba-Technic's mission to empower people to be safe while enjoying the activities they love, regardless of age.

Thomas Stearns Eliot
He is born in USA from an English, very serious and religious family. He escape to Paris, where there is an opener mentality. He transfers to London where, in the 1915, he marries a ballet dancer. His family isn't agree for this marriage, and decides to don't give him money any more to live, and so he starts to work. He know Joyce and the intellectuals of the period, being agree with their ideas. He write in these years Proufrock, who represents the ant – hero. In 1927 he becomes an English man refusing to be American, and he converts to the catholic church. His wife, in these years, becomes crazy, and he leaves her in an asylum. From this moment he changes the theme of his production, and he is left form the circle of Joyce, seen as a traitor.
Waste land (1922): land is seen as the desert
The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock (1915).
Journey of the magi
Cocktail Party (1950)
After the conversion he writes about the problems of modern man, but he proposes another solution (with hope, that is another level from Prufrock). He modifies the form, the genre: he begins to write plays, to reach, to communicate to every one. The starting point of this play is the crisis, common theme of al the character. It is the description of the moment in winch they are facing a serious problem of their life. Every character lives an Epiphany, a personal epiphany. Every character has a past full of betrays, of sins and errors. But, in different with Prufrock and Joyce's characters, they can speak with another person, they can reveal their secret and so take conscience of their trouble, limit, situation, and decide to solve it. He overcomes paralisys.
Every character ha a personal limit:
-Edward isn't able to decide anything;
-Lavinia thinks she's a victim;
-Celia is passionate, che loves loving, but she isn't the wife, she build her life on a dream. She can't accept a middle way, a compromise; she needs something enough, something total.
Edward & Lavinia: at the start between them there isn't love, but is an habit. Lavinia's leave provokes, opens the way to a new possibility. Edward at the start is like Prufrock, but he has the possibility to change. His problem is that he doesn't know who is himself; rather his wife knows it but here, in different with Prufrock, there's hope, the possibility to go out from their situation, and to find a solution. Edward in front of reality recollects good and nice past. His attitude is escape from reality. Edward and Lavinia betray each other, they accuse each other, thinking to know perfectly and completely each other. When doctor Reilly speaks to them the y discover that they aren't able to love and to be loved: they're isolated. Their reaction stars again facing the problem, not considering the last event happened. They consider again their relation and their situation: the troubles remain but now they're able to face them. Crisis: how to solve this situation? Reality con help you, you can solve your problem only if you involve in this question: you have to live your problem.
Peter: with him starts the problem of what is reality, of what is truth of the past. He thinks about love, but doesn't live it his reactions built by his mind thoughts, thinking some events, some signs.
Celia: she is in love with Edward. At the starting point she considers doctor Reilly like a devil (because he was against her scheme, because he is helping Edward's marriage): so what is against her thoughts is negative. Theme of dream: in front of negative things (the impossibility to remain with Edward), she becomes attaches to the dream (that is remain with Edward). Her change happens when she meets doctor Reilly. She asks him if she can love something that exist only in her mind. She asks him if she can ever love and to be loved by someone; if she can heal from the hungry of something that she can't belong. Doctor Reilly answers that there are two ways: the first is the known and normal way, the marriage, the relation with a man; the second is the faith born from desperation, that is true but unknown, so it needs faith. She chooses the second way (she become a nun and goes to mission).
Doctor Reilly: he doesn't say to any characters what they have to do, but he helps theme to consider what they're already thinking; he proposes ways to solve the situations (Celia for example would work for her salvation). The proposes of doctor Reilly are something from which start, it isn't a jump in the empty. There isn't a better way than another, both are good, but you have to choose completely one, to live in a compromise.

The film's solid reporting by Rolling Stone journalist Greg Palast has been reviewed positively. He includes voter suppression information from the 2016 presidential election and focuses on Kansas's flawed and unsecured Voter Registration Interstate Crosscheck program. Celebrity appearances include Ice-T and Richard Belzer, Willie Nelson, Rosario Dawson, and Shailene Woodley. Actor Jason Alexander states, "Palast's amazing, mind-blowing, literate and disturbingly funny account of what has happened to this country has left me dizzy."
Invite friends and neighbors. The public is welcome to attend.

A week ago Michael Dirda praised a new novel by Sarah Waters. I hadn't heard of Waters or her talent, so I went to my local shop and picked up Fingersmith, her 2002 novel, which I finished reading yesterday. I now want to read all her novels. Such is the influence of a good critic-reviewer, and, more importantly, a very good novel.
Fingersmith was full of surprises, including one of my favorite literary devices, a dual narration of the same events. This device works well in modern classics like Fowles' The Collector and a contemporary classic like Priest's The Prestige. I sometimes call these "duel narrations", because a good dual narration fights with perception, the reader's and the characters therein, and to write well of events from multiple viewpoints requires rare talent and skill.
Maud and Sue, the storytellers of Fingersmith, are surrounded by colorful minor characters–my favorites are the smut-inclined uncle, and a moaning sick woman in the Sucksby house that nobody ever sees and who is ultimately forgotten. The fog and soot soaked London and country settings seemed more influenced by Conan Doyle and Poe's Usher house than by Dickens (Waters gets compared to Dickens, but I like her better–her characters say "fuck" often), and Waters' way with fright and suspense seems better than any American novelist writing today.

Shipping containers are specially designed to withstand the harsh weather conditions that seasons can bring. That's why you have to ensure that it's sturdy enough to endure constant exposure to the elements at all times.
But where to do you start? Here are a few questions you might need to know about a shipping container shed and why you need to choose a fabric structure.
What is a shipping container shed?
A shipping container shed is a great outdoor solution for people looking for ways to fulfil their outdoor and backyard storage needs.
Most shipping containers comprise weathering steel, which is resistant to outdoor corrosion and is strong and durable. A typical shipping container can endure weight equal to six containers stacked on top of each other.
What are the benefits of using a fabric structure?
Using shipping container sheds made of fabric structures has more benefits than you would expect. It's easy to install and to dismantle if you need to relocate it.
There are even a few shipping container sheds made with specially designed UV-blocking fabric that helps reflect the sun's heat. Additionally, there are a few fabric structures that have noise control features and comprise environment-friendly materials as well.
Can I attach it to an existing shed?
Depending on the shed design and its strength, you can attach a shipping container shed to a one you might already have. However, it's highly recommended to have an engineer thoroughly inspect its structure to ensure that it will be able to carry the weight of the additional shed.
These are just a few facts that you need to know about purchasing a shipping container shed for your outdoor storage needs. It's always best to check reviews of the supplier first before purchasing one. It will ensure the quality of the product.

The Environment Ministry plans to request at least $5 million to establish a so-called sanitary landfill in place of a local dump in Dinnieh whose closure earlier this year has led garbage to pile up in several municipalities.Instead, local unions of municipalities in Minyeh-Dinnieh, Koura, Zgharta and Bsharri had paid a private landowner to use the site, beginning with Dinnieh in 2002 .According to Mustafa Seif, a family member of the landowner, who runs the landfill, the municipalities owe him some LL200 million ($130,000).In any case, the site's closure has led trash to amass in various sites across the four districts, spilling over into some of the 1,000 or so informal dumps that are estimated to have sprung up since the 2015 garbage crisis.In an attempt to solve this, Jreissati recently submitted a road map to the prime minister -- 25 sanitary landfills would be established across the country in place of the informal dumps, many of which line roadsides or spill into valleys and are burned regularly. Jreissati said he would need $5 million or $6 million to buy the Aadoueh dumpsite alone.Jreissati said following the meeting that the locations of waste treatment sites would be studied in a meeting Friday.Jreissati held a news conference Friday to respond to Frangieh's comments.

Israel's Defence Minister Ehud Barak on Sunday approved the purchase of a fleet of US-built F-35 strike fighters in a move set to ramp up the capabilities of the Israeli Air Force.
The minister "approved in principle" a recommendation by the military to purchase the F-35 or Joint Strike Fighter (JSF), a statement from his office said.
Israel is initially expected to buy 20 of the aircraft in a deal worth an estimated 2.75 billion dollars, the top-selling Yediot Aharonot daily said in several reports published last week.
Should the deal be approved by the security cabinet, it will be the most expensive weapons deal ever signed by the Jewish state, it said.
"The F-35 is the fighter plane of the future which will give the air force better short-range and long-range capabilities which will help state security," Barak said in the statement.
Delivery of the first F-35s, which are still not yet operational, is expected only in 2015, the paper said.
The price includes the cost of setting up a logistical infrastructure in Israel to allow local firms to manufacture spare parts for it.
Udi Shani, defence ministry director general, said a key element of the deal was an agreement which would allow Israeli industries to get involved in the assembly of the plane and the manufacture of spares.
"The considerations for approving the deal were not just about the operational abilities of the plane but the agreements for involving Israeli industries in the assembly of the plane," the ministry quoted him as saying.
Acquisition of the F-35, which is made by US aerospace and defence giant Lockheed Martin, will give Israel access to stealth technology that will provide it with air superiority over enemy anti-aircraft defences.

St Enoch station was a mainline railway station in the city of Glasgow, Scotland between 1876 and 1966. The hotel was the first building in Glasgow to be fitted out with electric lighting; the station was demolished in 1977.
Located on St Enoch Square in the city centre, it was opened by the City of Glasgow Union Railway in 1876;[1][2] the first passenger train stopped there on 1 May 1876 and the official opening took place on 17 October 1876.[2]
In 1883 it was taken over by the Glasgow and South Western Railway (G&SWR) and it became their headquarters.[2] Services ran to most parts of the G&SWR system, including Ayr, Dumfries, Carlisle, Kilmarnock and Stranraer. In partnership with the Midland Railway, through services also ran to England, using the Settle and Carlisle Railway from Carlisle to Leeds, Sheffield, Derby and London St Pancras.
It was the site of a rail crash in 1903 in which 16 passengers were killed and 64 injured when a train overran the buffers. In the 1923 grouping it was taken over and then operated by the London Midland and Scottish Railway. After the nationalisation of the United Kingdom rail network, the station was run by British Railways.
The suburban service to East Kilbride was diverted to St Enoch in 1959, when all but three services were dieselised; the diversion was said to be necessary to reduce the numbers of trains at Glasgow Central.[3]
It was a large station with 12 platforms and two impressive semi-cylindrical glass/iron roofed train sheds; the station was closed on 27 June 1966[1] as part of the rationalisation of the railway system undertaken by the British Railways Board chairman Dr. Richard Beeching; upon closure its 250 trains and 23,000 passengers a day were diverted to Central;[4] the roofs of the structure were demolished, despite protests, in 1977.[5] The clock that was suspended from the roof of the station was saved from destruction and is now on display in Cumbernauld Town Centre.[6]
The St Enoch Hotel which fronted the station was also demolished in 1977.[5]
Current site[edit]
The site of the station is now occupied by another glass structure, the St Enoch Centre, a large shopping centre; the remains of the station and hotel were used to help in fill the Queen's Dock, today the home of the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC).[5]
The red sandstone ticket hall which stands in St Enoch Square immediately west of the shopping centre is not part of the former rail station, but is the former ticket hall for the adjacent St Enoch subway station on the Glasgow Subway.
Though the mainline station is gone, parts of the arcaded approach embankments (now containing shops and restaurants) can be seen to the east of the shopping centre's car park on Osborne Street.[7] Although the short remaining section which once led into the station now goes nowhere, the southern section remains as a freight line along the route of the Glasgow City Union Railway, crossing the Clydebridge Viaduct of 1899 which spans the River Clyde.[8]
Dunlop Street railway station[edit]
St Enoch station replaced a previous station close by called Glasgow Dunlop Street, which was opened by the City of Glasgow Union Railway on 12 December 1870[1] and closed by the Glasgow and South Western Railway the same day St Enoch opened.[1]

Essays on Literature:
What women had to fight and go through in the 18th century to break the views men had of women. I will focus on women writers of the romantic period that stood for their rights and changed the women's title forever.
Many people would consider Mary Wollstonecraft the ""mother of feminism"" and her piece on the Rights of Women was the beginning of a lot of later arguments and struggles for woman equality. Many of women activists, such as Catherine Macaulay, Priscilla Bell Wakefield, and Mary Anne Radcliffe came after Wollstonecraft to take a stance and speak their voice. The definition of equality is having the same quantity, measure, or values as another. For decades woman such as those mentioned fought for this description to be true amongst males and females. Many males, including Rousseau, claimed that ""Nature intended that subjection of the one sex to the other; and that consequently there must be an inferiority of intellect in the subjected party"" (320).
Women in the late 1700s and early 1800s were observed more as objects of possession to the male population than as an equal human being. According to Macaulay, women were told that ""they must abstain from those vices which are contrary to their personal happiness"" (321). Men were not necessarily intelligent in all manners but rather speak out of pride and indulge in the interest of their own happiness. Rather, they were simply useful for nurturing the children, working around the house, needle work, and other various trivial tasks. According to Radcliffe,
A large part of The Black Book consists of columns ostensibly printed in Milliyet, one of Turkey's most important newspapers. In the novel they are presented as pieces written by a character who is a journalist. They appear at regular intervals, interrupting the novel's straight narrative, and because they determine the shape of The Black Book, they caused me a great deal of difficulty. Because I was having such a good time writing in the voice of a columnist, balancing fake erudition with a subtle buffoonery, the columns kept getting longer, dominating the book in a way that destroyed the balance and composition of the whole. Even today, when readers say to me, "I read The Black Book; the columns are wonderful," I am at the same time pleased and also troubled.
Those who have read the book in translation are the ones who say this most often. The Western reader is entranced by the strangeness and facile narration of the columnists I parody, who belong to a tradition that stretches beyond Turkey to include many other countries living within the same cultural contradictions. They are a dying breed, but we can still find echoes of them in columnists I parody, who belong to a tradition that stretches beyond Turkey to include many other countries living within the same cultural contradictions. They are a dying breed, but we can still find echoes of them in columnists writing in Turkey today.
In Turkey a real columnist will write four or five times a week. He will take his subjects from every aspect of life, geography, and history. He will deploy every narrative shape and strategy, whether drawing upon the most mundane daily news or philosophy or memoir or sociological observation.
John Keats was born on 31 October 1795 (probably), first child of Thomas Keats and Frances Jennings Keats, who had apparently eloped1. Everything was pretty ordinary for all concerned for a while--the Keatses had three more sons (George and Thomas, plus Edward who died as a baby) and one daughter, Frances, by 1803. That was also the year when John went away to school at Enfield. In 1804, John's father was killed in a fall from a horse. Just over two months later, for mysterious reasons, Frances remarried, to a London bank clerk named William Rawlings. Frances quickly decided she'd made some sort of terrible error and left, taking nothing with her since the laws of the time decreed that all her property and even her children belonged to her husband. Frances' mother, Alice, swept in and took custody of the children, but she could do nothing about the Swan and Hoop, which Rawlings sold immediately before disappearing. It was around this time that John became prone to fistfights, which he rarely lost even though he was small for his age2.
Frances reappeared suddenly in 1809, ill and depressed from many years of depending on the kindness of strangers3. John was overjoyed to see her and took care of her devotedly, but it was soon obvious that she had consumption4. She died in 1810, a year or so after her brother died of the same disease. John was crushed, and turned from fighting to studying. A year later, one of his financial guardians, a man named Abbey, sat him down and asked John what he'd like to do for a living. John had already considered the question, and replied that he'd like to be a surgeon5. So he was duly apprenticed to a surgeon named Hammond who lived in the neighborhood.
What is a hero? A hero to a child would be anything from their favorite character on a television show to their favorite athlete, where as when asking an adult it could be their mother or father, Jesus, or maybe even a political figure like the president. The definition of a hero is all in the eyes of each individual. A hero is someone or something that will display courage and will even sacrifice themselves in the face of danger and difficulty. A hero is also someone who will intentionally overcome obstacles for the benefit of others. The courage and self sacrifice is judged by those around the person to determine if they believe what he or she has done was heroic.
Heroes are very important in society for people to draw inspiration from for their everyday lives, business, and theirs and their families values. There are many different heroic figures in today's society. Many people, especially teens, have heroes that are athletes or celebrities, or even rock stars. These "heroes" are not the ones that people should be admiring and looking after because many of them are in trouble with the law or are frequently on television because of their bad actions. People should be admiring the everyday individuals that pull people out of burning buildings, or are fighting in wars for the nation's freedom, or even an individual's parents that do everything in their power to provide a good life for their child. Those are the real heroes of today. The ones that are in it for the greater good, not just to benefit themselves. The people who give others strength to get through life's difficulties.
Pets can even be heroes to some people. For example, when a lady from Maryland choked on a piece of apple pie, her dog jumped and landed on her chest, forcing the food to come loose. Another is when the Keesling family from Indiana was about to be overcome by carbon monoxide, their cat clawed at the wife's hair until she woke up and noticed it then called for help. This is a good example of how a person definition of heroism comes into play. To these families their animals are heroes because they might not still be there without the acts.
Well with tradition in the respect of architecture, Hatshepsut like her predecessors set out to build her Mortuary temple at Deir el Bahri. But unlike previous buildings Hatshepsut's temple set a new architectural standard for future pharaohs, with her incorporated originality and daring architecture. Hatshepsut's Mortuary Temple is a remarkable creation, made not from quarried rock, but from the surrounding limestone cliffs, it truly is the apex of Thebes. Composed of three terraces, flanking carronades and spacious courts was a complete new innovation, unlike any before with its ascending ramps carved from living rock. The building is a true testament to the society in which Hatshepsut lived, and never fails to impress even the toughest of historians such as Gardiner who stated 'even now there is no nobler architectural achievement to be seen in the whole of Egypt'. The temples madgesty impressed her people and reinforced as well as strengthened her position as a pharaoh capable of great might and also challenged the pharaoh of the future to rival her masterpiece.
Expedition to Punt, Year 9
The jewel of Hatshepsut's reign was her expedition to Punt, not only did the expedition bring greater wealth to Egypt it also bore the cost of Hatshepsut's monumental building scheme. The expedition opened up trade between Egypt and inner Africa, via contact made, significantly not for conquest but trade. The land of punt opened up many wonders to the Egyptians, as seen by the reliefs etched into Hatshepsut's Mortuary temple. Punt brought a variety of marine life, date palms as well as frankincense and ebony trees and other exotic goods such as ivory, live animals and skins as well as gold.

Intro Cool WordPress Websites
Over the past 10 years, I've used a lot of different WordPress themes and have been really disappointed. Up until recently, I was utilizing MyThemeShop, which was pretty excellent. But I still had to do a lot of customization to make it do and operate the way I needed it to. A few of weeks ago I decided to give GeneratePress a try, and let me just say, it is undoubtedly the best WordPress theme I have discovered in 10 years. I had been blown away and am moving all my sites to GeneratePress. I'll go into precisely why in my in-depth GeneratePress review under. And if you're wondering, yes I've tried Genesis, Astra, OceanWP, Avada, X motif, Divi in addition to several other lightweight and thicker multi-purpose themes. Cool WordPress Websites
To Get started, Click here to download GeneratePress.
GeneratePress Review
GeneratePress is a totally free WordPress theme made by Tom Usborne, a programmer from Canada. I've really seen it for many years from the WordPress repository. Most of you know that I am pretty picky when it comes to web performance, and so I have a tendency to dismiss everything in the repository. Typically because a lot of stuff on there isn't that good, or not encouraged for long. However, in this case, this was a mistake. The theme currently has over half a million downloads, 80,000+ busy installs, with over 500 5-star ratings. So obviously Tom is doing some thing right here.
I Really installed the free version of the theme and in a matter of 15 minutes bought the superior version. I could tell right off the bat, the programmer was thinking precisely how I was envisioning a theme should get the job done. And I'll go into that more below, but let's first look at a number of the features. I'm going to be covering the superior edition of the theme, because it's worth very penny. In fact, Tom, in the event that you read this and are seeing Scottsdale, Arizona, coffees on me.
Super lightweight and fast. Modular design allowing you to enable/disable things you do not want running. This is only one of the greatest reasons I adore GeneratePress.
Responsive, looks great across all devices.
Schema built-in, for greater outcomes in SERPs.
Dramatic integration with the WordPress Customizer. I haven't been a fan of the customizer in the past, but Tom does it right.
Compatible with all popular plugins, Yoast SEO, WooCommerce, EDD, BuddyPress, bbPress, and WPML. Fantastic browser service back to IE8.
It also works great with the popular fast-growing Elementor page builder. If you would like to dive into even more customizations, these really are a terrific combo. I have also read that individuals using Beaver Builder have had success.
Translation ready.
Font wonderful built in.
A lot of filters and hooks which make it great for developers.
Excellent active service from the developer. Normally, 3 updates per month.
The Documentation can be incredible. Besides have good documentation on their site, the subject has been around long enough that everything I Googled during the setup process was found inside a couple of seconds from their own forum.
Going Deep Into GeneratePress
Now it's Time for the fun part! I test a brand new theme right from the box with no customizations to just see how fast the foundation is. This tells me a lot of what I could expect by the time I add everything to it. Running the stock GeneratePress WordPress motif on Kinsta hosting clocked in at a whopping 265 ms load time. I was quite impressed.
One Thing I was concerned about with GeneratePress was that the modular design was going to generate a whole lot of big files, but this isn't the case. You can tell that Tom literally worked hard on making sure that every file packed in GeneratePress is as little as possible. Together with HTTP/2, the amount of files is not as important. However, the size is! Take a look at some of the center GeneratePress files under:
/generatepress/css/unsemantic-grid. min.css 2.9 KB
/generatepress/style. css 7.1 KB
/generatepress/css/mobile. min.css 1.6 KB
/generatepress/js/navigation. min.js 1.1 KB
/generatepress/js/dropdown. min.js 1.5 KB
This is a developer that cares about functionality! And I have Seen exactly the same throughout all the premium add-ons. They are literally as small as possible get them. In reality, Font Awesome is probably the largest file included. And that is not even his. With Font Awesome 5 coming round the corner, we can anticipate that to get smaller too.
The premium add-ons Are installation in what I'd call a modular layout. It is possible to activate/deactivate whatever you aren't using to ensure they do not load on your website. As the co-developer of the perfmatters plugin that has a script supervisor built-in, I felt right at home for this. Everything should be designed this way.
If You're interested, I'm using the following add-ons on this site:
Page Header
No Child Theme Needed
One of The best features of GeneratePress is I no longer have to use a young child motif . This makes my life so much easier. No longer editing my functions.php or header.php documents. I can literally upgrade my GeneratePress theme this exact minute rather than lose a single customization. The hooks add-on definitely can help make it possible. It permits you to incorporate custom code/PHP everywhere throughout your WordPress site. Cool WordPress Websites
Other Things I Love About GeneratePress
On every Page/post you have a lot of alternatives. You can alter the sidebar layout and the footer widgets.
You Can quickly swap a page involving the default to a full width page, in addition to disable elements.
The WordPress customizer choices is really where GeneratePress really shines! Remember, a lot of these choices are permitted from the premium add-ons. I can not show you everything, otherwise, we'd be here all day. But allow me to show you couple which really come in handy.
Responsive Columns
Another Plugin I highly recommend grabbing is the free Lightweight Grid Columns. Not to my surprise, this is also created by the exact same programmer as GeneratePress. It enables you a super simple way to add responsive columns to any page or article. Characteristics include:
Desktop grid thickness
Tablet grid thickness
Mobile grid thickness
Insert Customized classes
Add custom inline designs
Equal height columns
Here is An example below:
You might want to Also grab his amazing WP Display Posts plugin too. View my featured posts on the sidebar of this site? That is using the WP Show Posts plugin. I have it set to display posts from a particular"featured" category. You might also have it show last modified/updated articles, recent articles, etc.. I am using the free version and it works great.
To Get started, Click here to download GeneratePress.
Sections Add-on
The Sections add-on in the premium edition of GeneratePress lets you perform all kinds of things in terms of design. Consider it like a webpage builder with no bloat. GeneratePress is certainly not just for blogs! I am in reality utilizing GeneratePress for our ecommerce site (perfmatters.io) which is running Easy Digital Downloads. Don't hesitate to look it over. However, as you can see below, it looks nothing like a site.
Speed Tests
For those Of you that are regular readers, you probably didn't even notice that I changed the whole motif that powers woorkup.com. It only took me about an hour to get GeneratePress to mimic my MyThemeShop theme which I had spent annually customizing. Here's a comparison under.
woorkup.com Old MyThemeShop Theme
My older MyThemeShop motif was pretty fast, but I spent a great deal of time customizing it. In fact, I have gotten a great deal of emails from you guys asking me to publish all of my customizations. My advice now is, just get GeneratePress!
woorkup.com New GeneratePress Theme
With the New GeneratePress motif I managed to attain faster speeds and 600 fewer lines of code! And keep in mind, I do not have a kid motif. All the customizations were made with the wonderful GP hooks and snippets plugin (both CSS and PHP).
Like the WordPress theme I've running on woorkup? You are in luck. Tom asked if he could create a replica of woorkup for the new GeneratePress site library. I'm pleased to allow you to know that you can now put in my woorkup motif on your own GeneratePress website with only a single click! It is called the Marketer theme. Get started with a great blog layout instantly.
brianjackson.io Old Array Theme's Theme
Additionally, I Moved over my personal website, brianjackson.io, to GeneratePress. Previously I was using a theme from Array Themes. It's a pretty basic minimum website, as I do not use it for much. As you can see it loaded pretty quickly.
brianjackson.io New GeneratePress Theme
I was Able to replicate the entire look 100% in GeneratePress in under one hour. And as you can view it loads faster! Amazing. I was even able to eliminate a few plugins which weren't needed because of GP.
forgemedia.io Old Array Theme's Theme
I also Moved over our business site, forgemedia.io, to GeneratePress. Previously I was using a theme from Array Themes. It's a pretty basic minimal site, as we simply use it to our LLC. As you can see it loaded pretty fast. Cool WordPress Websites
forgemedia.io New GeneratePress Theme
I had been Able to move everything over and get it looking exactly how I needed it in under one hour. And as you can view it loads even faster! Amazing. I was able to get rid of a total of four plugins and it dropped my total page weight 2x!
I can not express my Excitement about finding GeneratePress and I'm moving over all my sites for this (which includes some EDD e-commerce websites ). Once I have my 9 sites all running in GP with no child themes, my entire life is going to be a breeze! The developer has restored my faith in multi-purpose subjects , which when done the right way, can actually perform faster.
And The best news isI now have a billion more options to choose from than I did earlier.
What GeneratePress Is Good For…
GeneratePress Is the perfect option for performance-focused users that want to have the ability to personalize and control precisely how their site appears.
You Can make GeneratePress perform pretty much anything. And because GeneratePress has a focus on functionality, the site that you build will have a great base to make it load quickly.
Because Of that, people who build WordPress sites for a living love GeneratePress. They will typically pair it with a WordPress page builder and use it for literally any type of website.
But GeneratePress Might Not Be A Good Fit If…
…you Need something that will immediately appear perfect from the box.
For Example, if you know you want to produce a style blog, you might be happier choosing a market theme that is developed exclusively for fashion bloggers.
Even though GeneratePress is becoming a great deal easier to use, thanks to its pre-built Website Library, GeneratePress still seems very barebones when you first install it.
So To make GeneratePress look how you would like it to, you'll most likely need to go in and personalize matters. And while the substantial benefit of GeneratePress is how customizable it is, some users, particularly casual users, do not like having to make those changes .
GeneratePress Features Which Make It Unique
Here Are some of the particular features that explain why GeneratePress is indeed popular.
Lots Of Customization Options From The Real-Time WordPress Customizer
Beyond Functionality, another place where GeneratePress does nicely is its customization choices.
GeneratePress Utilizes the WordPress Customizer for customization, which is convenient because you'll be able to see all the changes that you make in real time.
The Free variant of GeneratePress provides you decent possibilities, but if you own GeneratePress Premium, you will be able to customize nearly all about your site.
For Example, if you go into the Design region, you can configure detailed settings for yourown:
- Header — you can move your header round and alter its own styling
- Navigation — GeneratePress gives you two different navigation options, including sticky menus
- Sidebar layout — you can use a Couple of sidebars
- Blog post layout — such as featured picture size, metadata, etc..
- Footer layout — just like how many widgets to add
Likewise, That the Typography area enables you to control the font to get every single element on your site, including buttons:
And You also get a thorough area to control the colour of every single element on your website.
All In all, GeneratePress will provide you a lot more customization choices from the WordPress Customizer than most other topics. This level of detail may be a little overwhelming if you are a beginner. But as soon as you understand how the preferences come together, you'll have full control on how your site appears.
Optimized Performance And Quick Page Load Times
Around All of its features, GeneratePress consistently has a focus on excellent performance and clean code. The whole theme is less than 30 kB, and it will be about as small as you are ever going to find for a WordPress theme. Even most other optimized WordPress themes are still 200+ kB. And some badly coded themes can even exceed 1 MB!
GeneratePress Also has no code dependencies, which helps you avoid the leave blocking error that Google Pagespeed Insights often cites.
Place That collectively, and you get a superfast-loading motif. How quickly? To give you an idea, I ran a little test.
First, I set up an empty site utilizing a random popular WordPress.org theme (Envo Magazine). After testing its performance with Pingdom, it
- Had a performance grade of 77
- Loaded in 1.05 moments
- Had a page size of 243.9 kB
- Had 15 requests
That is Not bad in any way! However, GeneratePress can do better.
Next, I triggered GeneratePress on exactly the same test website without changing anything else. Here's how GeneratePress did:
- Had a performance tier of 87, 10 points greater
- Loaded in 666 ms, ~37% quicker
- Had a page size of 26.8 kB, ~90% smaller
- Had 9 requests, ~40% fewer
If You perform that same test with other topics, you'll continue to see that GeneratePress is one of those fastest-loading WordPress topics in existence. Cool WordPress Websites
Other Useful Premium Extensions, Plus Much Modular Approach
Beyond Giving you more design controls from the WordPress Customizer, GeneratePress Premium also comes with a lot of other useful features such as:
- Elements — a unique feature that lets you create custom hooks, page headers, or layout templates.
- Page Header — lets you create a unique page header onto a per-page basis.
- Sections — that is kind of like lightweight page building. It lets you create separate"sections" onto a webpage, each with their own design and column settings.
To Stay lightweight, GeneratePress also gives you a modular interface where you can select and choose what features you would like to trigger.
That Way, you don't have to slow your site down for a feature which you're never going to use.
Pre-Made Starter Sites Make It Easier To Design Your Website
In The last, you needed to build GeneratePress sites from a blank canvas no matter what, which made the theme difficult for casual users to install.
Earlier In 2018, however, the programmer added a new Site Library attribute for GeneratePress Premium users which allows you easily import any among the 25+ pre-built demo sites.
You Can import them directly from your WordPress dashboard.
Yes this site still uses GeneratePress! All I did was click a couple buttons to import a demo site.
Page-Level Settings Give You Detailed Control Over Each Piece Of Content
With Most topics, every page and post will use the same settings for the most part. You may have some custom formats or templates — however you do not have very much control past that.
GeneratePress Changes that by giving you a brand new Layout meta box for every single page and post:
You Can utilize this meta box to:
- Change how many sidebars your site uses, or the sidebar orientation (such as altering the sidebar from right to left)
- Choose how many footer widgets to use
- Disable certain elements, like your header, navigation menu, post featured image, article title, or footer
- Create a special"container" to your page builder
Where These controls are the most useful is if you're using a WordPress page builder.
By Disabling certain components, you're in a position to produce the correct baseline for your own page builder layout, which makes it easy to create custom content as needed. Cool WordPress Websites
GeneratePress Replies: Affordable And Works On Unlimited Sites
The Heart GeneratePress motif is available for free at WordPress.org.
That said, If you are serious about utilizing GeneratePress, I believe you should buy the GeneratePress Premium plugin, as that is what makes the theme so flexible. The free version doesn't give you almost as many settings in the WordPress Customizer. And you'll also lose out on the premade Site Library.
GeneratePress Premium is also still quite reasonably priced. It costs just $39.95, and that provides you use on infinite sites. You will also get a 40% discount if you want to renew to continue receiving support and upgrades after the first year (you can, of course, continue using GeneratePress after the first year without renewing — you just won't receive any more updates).
When You consider that the typical premium WordPress theme will often cost around $60, GeneratePress offers a great value.
As I mentioned, I do not believe GeneratePress is for everyone.
If You want a niche-specific theme, you can probably save time by purchasing a theme that fits your requirements for your niche out of day one.
However, If you are willing to spend some time changing preferences, then GeneratePress' style controls give you the flexibility to flip it into any type of WordPress website. Or, you may even have the ability to find a starter website that fulfills your needs to save some time.
Additionally, It's one of those fastest-loading WordPress topics you will locate. Therefore, if you're seeking the best performance possible, using GeneratePress as your WordPress site's base is a great decision.
If You blend it with fast-loading hosting, you should have no difficulty making your website load in under one second. Cool WordPress Websites

Losing teeth, no matter the reason, is rarely a good experience. In fact, most would call it one of the most difficult things you'll ever have to deal with. Teeth are part of your everyday life. You rarely notice it until you lose them, though.
The good news is that if you do lose a tooth, you're not out of luck. Thanks to advancements in dental technology you have more options than ever before when it comes to tooth restoration. Dental implants are increasingly popular. Today, we're going to take an in-depth look at implants.
What are they?
When you see a dentist for implants, you'll learn that implants are nothing more than a titanium post, inserted directly into your gums. The post is then covered up with a dental crown. The end result is something that looks so real only Dr. Roy A. Smith, III can tell the difference.
Why implants?
A question we often get here at Rocky Ridge Dental Associates in Vestavia Hills, Alabama, is why you'd want implants. After all, getting a titanium insert in your gums doesn't sound like much fun, does it? The reason our team recommends them is that they're so effective at acting like real teeth.
You do have to care for your implants like you would your real teeth. Otherwise, you'll end up with the same problems that necessitated implants in the first place.

Remember the iTunes Music Store? Back in the day, iTunes was the way most of us, Mac or Windows PC users, bought the music we listened to.
Apple was kind enough to add a few dozen internet radio stations to the listening mix so we wouldn't stray far from iTunes. Then, a strange thing happened. Another generation came along and found iTunes too confining, too expensive, and too much like 1999.
Pandora came along and internet radio was born again. Then, the Swedes launched Spotify and monthly subscriptions became popular. Suddenly, we long time iTunes users had more choices and iTunes had competition.
The latest to grace my Mac is the increasingly popular Rdio, yet another streaming music service to muddy the once crystal clear iTunes dominated music waters.
All you need is an open browser tab on your Mac to listen to music from Rdio, but there's an Rdio app for the Mac which enhances the experience.
Rdio uses the Mac's keyboard media keys, starts your Rdio collection by matching up the music library in iTunes, and gives you another way to listen to music. Rdio is another example of music mobility. iTunes is the past. Something else is the present.
Rdio is smart enough to know the future of music is music that moves so there's an iPhone, iPad, iPod Rdio app, plus Android, Windows Phone, even BlackBerry.
Here's the kicker. Rdio isn't free.
Just using the web browser will give you unlimited streaming starting at $4.99 a month. Add more listeners or devices and the price goes higher. And that doesn't take into account what it costs for bandwidth, although Rdio allows streaming via Wi-Fi and storing music on your device.
Choice and a little competition is a good thing. iTunes isn't the only game in town for Mac users.

Bridge of Love
Bridge of Love is located nearby KritsadaDoi building, it is the bridge designed and constructed to be the sign of strong and forever love. Why forever love? This is because there will be a lockpad for lovers or couple to say their promise and vow to each other by making a wish, vow, and promise through lockpad, lock it on the steel sling and throw the master key away into the guardian frog's mouth in the river so that their love vow and promise will be forever locked.
It is believed to be one of the strongest way to make their love last forever. On the other hand, if you want to know how serious he/she, this activity will sure be a good test fromt he acting if he or she wants to lock his/her vow and promise on the lockpad with you. Try it then at least you would know how serious he/she does for your relationship.

Some Ways to Frame "Regeneration"
I have been working with the Regenerative Communities Network to cultivate bioregional-scale projects that do this very thing. One of our challenges is that most people have not been trained in regenerative design practices — including how we frame regeneration itself.
The purpose of this article is to lay out some of the ways that regeneration can be framed… helping us conceptualize what we are doing and communicate more effectively with our partners in the field. My intention is not so much to be comprehensive as it is to stimulate further discussion. We need to have conversations about the language we use to work together, especially when conflicts arise and it becomes necessary to navigating through diverse points of view.
For starters, to re-generate means there must previously have been processes or mechanisms for generating outcomes in the first place.

In most cities, including mine, land is scarce, and we have to learn to live close, very close, to each other.
This very nice example of the architecture of togetherness is a three-level urban townhouse design by Sweden architecture firm Elding Oscarson. It seems to fit in nicely with the older neighbours.
It takes a lot of design thinking to do this well. You want to fit in, nicely, and yet have the feeling of being in a place of your own. This little office is across the small yard at the back.
I think I could live here happily, very close to my neighbours, but still apart. From here.
The Japanese have lived close to one another for a long time. Their architects have responded beautifully.
The above townhouse is the work of Ikuyo Nakama.
The little yard is open and sunny, but sheltered. From here.
Now to Berlin.
British architect David Chipperfield did this little beaut in Germany's most fabled and fashionable city.
Yes that's nice too.
David Chipperfield does a nice job of most things, so I'm not surprised this is a peach. Images from here.
The above are all unitary residences, custom dwellings for one, two, or more. Other ways of living close together involve sharing a group of living units designed as a unified structure or set of structures. In my town, the most popular option is the high-rise condominium tower, where people live one on top of the other, until you get to the TOP.
The more congenial, neighborly solution, is the townhouse complex, where everyone has their own personal access, and a little piece of earth to cultivate, if they wish. It does take more land, but the benefits are, I think, considerable.
This above is in LA, specifically West Hollywood. It is the work of Lorcan O'Herlihy Architects and is called Gardner 1050, a 10 unit project.
Here's the shared courtyard space at Gardner 1050. From here.
Still on the West Coast of the US, an award winner for affordable housing
Above, K Lofts in San Diego, winner of an award for Excellence in Affordable Housing by the US agency HUD (Housing and Urban Development). The architect is Jonathan Segal. K is a nine-unit loft building on a 9,000-square-foot urban property in downtown San Diego, a mixture of very low income, affordable, and market rate rental units with each unit containing large private outdoor spaces and oversize glazing. Nice going Jonathan. From here.
Previous generations of urban dwellers also had a shortage of good space, and many lived in townhouses connected side by side in rows i.e. row houses or terraces (England)
Clapham, near London.
London, itself.
Amsterdam, right on the canal.
The 2 above from loving living small. More examples from England here.
If TWO is your magic number, consider the Duplex:
This above is a more recent TWO some, the Quarry Street Duplex, Robert Hillier, FAIA Princeton, NJ. Found here
And back to Japan for a duplex house with court in Tokyo. It was designed by K+S Architects / Nobuya Kashima + Aya Sato. See here
But there are other ways to live together. The LA Dingbat is one I like a lot:
In the La Brea area of Los Angeles.
Another LA dingbat. Both above from here
Of course people will find there own way to live together, whether an architect is around or not. This from here. But I think these people must have been inspired by Habitat, in Montreal, by Moshe Safdie, still a supreme example of the architecture of togetherness.
Built in 1967. More from apartment therapy.

Bakugo vs. Uraraka (
The match between Katsuki and Ochaco begins with Ochaco making her move first. She tries to reach Katsuki, but Katsuki uses an Explosion on her. Katsuki reaches down to the floor to grab her, only to find Ochaco's jacket lying there. Ochaco moves behind Katsuki to attack him, however, Katsuki's reflexes allows him to attack her with an Explosion, knocking Ochaco back. Ochaco tries to get up first, but Katsuki reaches her more quickly and uses another Explosion on her. Katsuki then uses more Explosions on her, causing the crowd to rebuke Katsuki's actions. Shota criticizes the crowd for thinking that way, saying that Katsuki is on guard due to his opponent's strength. Ochaco, despite being battered and wounded from Katsuki's Explosion assault, thanks him for not letting his guard down as it allowed her to put her plan into motion; to create a meteor shower from all of the rubble utilizing the effects of her Quirk. Ochaco fires the meteor shower of rubble at Katsuki, planning to use the shower of rubble as a distraction so that she can attack him directly with her Quirk. However, Katsuki uses a huge Explosion, destroying Ochaco's meteor shower of rubble and knocking her back onto the ground at the same time. Ochaco gets up and starts to move towards Katsuki, however, her wounds prove to be too much and she finally collapses on the ground, unable to move. Midnight goes to check on her condition and declares that Ochaco is unable to battle anymore, thus Katsuki is the winner.

"Cut not the wings of your dreams,
for they are the heartbeat and the freedom of your soul."
~ Flavia
Emergent Studies Institute courses are currently organized into a variety of departments based on our mission of spiritual education and global change. We actively engage in emergence, meaning that our departments and specializations may always evolve and grow as time goes by and different interests emerge. We take pride in focusing on the needs of our ever changing and growing global community.
We embrace the concept of Emergent Education, in the virtual classroom, to activate imaginations and engage in transformation. This approach is a beautiful alternative to the patriarchal structure currently used in public education which employs linear thinking and utilizes pre-determined learning outcomes identified by those 'experts' outside the classroom and established before students walk in the door regardless of their skills, background or interests. In addition, we utilize Emergent Curriculum which relies on the experts inside the classroom and educational organization to create courses that are relevant and powerful. We encourage and cultivate each individual teacher's creativity, community co-creation and attentiveness to individual learners. Emergent curriculum activates teacher creativity and student learning for the benefit of all.
Certificate Program: We believe that spiritual practices and/or expressions solidify our connection daily with the divine. Actively engaging our body/mind/spirit in healing practices such as walks in nature, meditation, artistic expression, act of kindness and music can be an important spiritual anchor. This spiritual foundation then becomes crucial as our students take what they have learned to go out into the world and be a part of creating positive change.
