Perth may be the most isolated capital city on the planet, but they have it easy in other areas. Mainly in weather. After spending a week in Perth and enjoying balmy Autumn temperatures I felt bad for all my Victorian friends that were adjusting to the first chilly temperatures of the season. ANZAC day dawn ceremonies in Ballarat were enjoyed with a temp of 2 degrees (Celsius. That's 35.4F). Meanwhile in Perth, I enjoyed the chance to keep strutting about in summer dresses like this sleeveless number.
I was out an about to have a look at Public, an art event presented by Form in WA. 45 artists take part in the event over 9 days in Perth, reclaiming public space with art on a massive scale. Multistory buildings, public car parks, skinny lane ways and alleys were transformed and we wandered the streets to check it out.
I don't think Straker's piece was part of the event, but I'm a die hard Mr. Squiggle fan. My favourite character is absent. For lots of my childhood, my mother called me Gus. Gus is the snail with a flowerpot on its back in Mr. Squiggle, not included in the above neon work. That coughing, cancerous tractor is missing too.
Cute, little houses with feetsies!

TOKYO (Reuters) - This is not how Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe probably imagined reaching a key milestone in his economic revival plan.
Pro-growth measures meant to complement hefty doses of budget and monetary stimulus met with a cool reception and their formal approval on Friday coincided with turbulence in financial markets hit by sharp reversals in global capital flows.
A sense of disappointment that steps unveiled over the past several weeks left out measures such as corporate tax cuts or labor market liberalization was so apparent that it made Abe promise more after July 21 upper house elections.
"The growth strategy decided today will be the starting point," Abe said in a video message on his office's Youtube channel.
"I will ensure political stability and in the autumn I will launch the second round of the growth strategy."
The challenge for Abe and his hand-picked central bank chief Haruhiko Kuroda will be how to sustain business and consumer confidence through the rough market patch until new policies take shape and measures adopted so far bear fruit.
Both have tried to soothe nerves with assurances that the economy was improving.
Economists agree that the economy should have enough momentum to cope with market turmoil and say there is not a lot more policymakers can do besides doing what they have already promised.
"They have said what they want to do. Now it is a matter of execution," said Robert Feldman, chief economist at Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities in Tokyo.
The cabinet's rubber-stamping of the growth strategy, the so-called third arrow of Abe's economic remedy to two decades of stagnation, comes amid signs that the economy is picking up pace. Growth in the first quarter accelerated to an annualized rate of 4.1 percent, outpacing U.S. growth, and there is evidence that exports and output are also improving.
Much of that has been driven by improved global demand as well as relief for exporters from a weaker yen, as well as a boost to consumer and business confidence produced by the Bank of Japan's pledge to do whatever it takes to beat deflation, starting with doubling its monetary base in less than two years.
However, the yen clawed back some of its losses to trade at its highest levels in 10 weeks on Thursday, while stocks extended their recent slide to more than 20 percent since hitting a 5-1/2 peak hit on May 23.
Such a reversal, driven mainly by shifting expectations about the scope of U.S. monetary stimulus, threatens to undermine that "feel good" effect from the bull market and softer currency.
Yet economists and commentators say as long as Abe stays focused on the economy, keeps ticking boxes on his "to do list" and makes good on his promise of a second batch of pro-growth reforms, there are reasons to be optimistic.
Economists at Nomura Securities estimate that just measures proposed so far - including special economic zones, power sector reform and incentives for private sector investment - if implemented would add 0.5 percentage points to economic growth every year until the end of this decade.
Analysts warn, though, it will not be smooth sailing.
In the first months of Abe's term all stars seemed aligned in his favor: rallying stocks and the retreating yen were boosting business morale and his push for a radical overhaul of central bank policies was winning plaudits at home and abroad.
However, things got more complicated with financial markets facing global headwinds, an upper house election that is Abe's to lose and some tough policy choices ahead.
For example, a cut in corporate tax rates advocated by business lobbies and one of Abe's advisers does not have the support of the powerful finance ministry.
Its chief Taro Aso on Friday questioned the wisdom of such cuts when the majority of Japanese companies were taking advantage of loss write-offs to effectively avoid paying such taxes
"Seventy-five percent (of corporations) are not paying," Aso told reporters. "So cutting corporate tax won't be effective for all those who are not paying."
In months after the elections the government will also have to decide whether to raise the sales tax to fund swelling social security costs and present a credible plan to meet its fiscal targets and rein in ballooning public debt, which is already exceeds two years' worth of the nation's economic output.
Opinion surveys show Abe's party is on course to win the upper house election by a big margin and gain full control of both chambers of parliament and some analysts say it is only natural for the government to play it safe until then.
"The Abe administration will probably start discussing controversial issues such as a corporate tax cut and labor market reform if his ruling party secures a stable government," said Junichi Makino, chief economist at SMBC Nikko Securities.

So it's no surprise that they would come together to form this enigmatic soprano sax duo. They demonstrate how well two soprano saxophones actually sound together. I especially like their use of the slap tongue technique and multi-phonics. These are two extended techniques that I feel sound really good on the soprano.
Their duo CD release, Live at Bauchhund Berlin 2010, on Armirani Records.was actually recorded on the sixth anniversary of Steve Lacy's death. So I'm sure Lacy was there in spirit, not to mention influence.
I haven't heard it yet, but it's currently in route to my mailbox as we speak.
The first soprano sax duo I ever heard was record called Chirps, with Steve Lacy and Evan Parker. I can't think of two players more different. However, collectively, they made it work.
This clip of Harri and Gianni was taped at the Black Motor Club at Telakka - Tampere, Finland. Which seems to have a lot a interesting and adventurous music. Definitely a place I'll keep my eyes and ears open for.

Rainy weekday mornings, as far as they go, are never as good as they are in Paris.
As a kid, a rainy morning meant I would be walked to school instead of going there by myself. The seldom-washed windows of the école communale were streaked with the residue of too many coal-fired furnaces, and when it rained recess was held indoors instead of in the school's courtyard. No big sacrifice there. The French educational system back then did not include phys ed, so time spent outdoors was mostly either standing around or chasing each other without much gusto in lackadaisical games of tag. The teachers supervising us smoked their Gauloises and Gitanes cigarettes in a corner and tried to look properly angst-ridden (existentialism was very big), prompted to move only if a pupil's fall included blood and sprains.
On rainy days recesses held inside, a mayhem of paper airplanes, spitballs, pushing, shoving and tripping reigned in class. The teacher left and would return a half-hour later to restore order by whacking a long, straight ebony ruler against the blackboard. I remember that my fingers were permanently ink-stained; each school desk had a built-in ink pot filled by the teacher in the morning. We learned cursive writing with ink spreading on skin, class apron and under fingernails. To this day, I recall the bitter taste of the dark liquid when I licked and tried to rub it off my hands.
At home it was different. My mother had an atelier, a dress-making shop that catered to the middle class and aped the fashions of better-known couturieres. I'd come home from school, shed my rain cape (a real woolen cape that would get sodden and smelly) and do my homework on the fabric-cutting table.
I loved it in the atelier. There were two part-time models—living mannequin—who to my delight walked around in a state of constant déshabillé. Neither had finished school, but they helped with my homework, doing multiplications and divisions that always came out wrong. I didn't care. I was fascinated by barely concealed breasts and derrieres, the curve of a leg or a spine. The math was checked by the enterprise's gay designer and chief tailor whose facility with numbers was more pronounced than those of the models. When the homework was finished, the models and I played cards—war, usually, which requires neither intellect nor knowledge of mathematics.
Rainy days kept everyone indoors. The sewing machines clattered, fabrics hissed while cut; the atelier smelled of café-au-lait, croissants, chalk dust, and garlic from the model's saucissons sandwiches. I gathered remnants and made fringes for my pants so they'd look like cowboy chaps. Long strips of discarded fabrics became headbands, belts, sashes, bandannas and skinny neckties. Squares became parachutes attached to lead soldiers hurled towards the ceiling or out the windows, because on rainy days in the spring and summer, my mother would throw open the large windows to let in air and the wet sounds of the city.
If Proust had his madeleines, I had and still have the sensory memory of diesel fumes, wet cobblestones and smoldering anthracite. I remember tires on water, the rushing of storm sewers, the streams escaping from the mouths of the gargoyles. There were seas of black umbrellas, the soaked flooring of an adjacent café, the aroma of the local épicerie and the sweet and tart tang of the vintner's shop.
And that's a Paris no terrorism will ever touch.

The officer is mounted on a black. Many blacks are a very dark brown. So I've used that as the highlight with an even lighter brown around the mouth and sheath.
As we have not yet accomplished my dream of living next to the stables, overlooking the horses as they graze. I use photos of t'internet as a handy reference. In the case of the trumpeter's mount, I used the one below, but allowed the light grey/white dapples to accentuate the highlights somewhat more than one the real horse. If enough people are interested and like my results, I'd do a specific post on how I paint horses sometime.
You'll note that I've also gone for darker tones than my norm on two of the troopers, based on this example of a faded black:
Once I've completed the brigade command stand, I'll post up a picture of the full regiment.

Testing a ladder line for an electrical half wave length will yield meaningless results with a MFJ 259B Antenna Analyzer. What works with 50 ohm coax will not work with any other impedance coax or ladder line (unless it's 50 ohm ladder line). The analyzer is a bridge circuit where the other three legs of the bridge are 50 ohms. The fourth component must also be the electrical equivalent of a 50 ohm resistor for a meaningful readout. But not to fear. It can still be accomplished with just a little work. The steps to find an electrical half wave length for a ladder line are identical to that of a 50 ohm coax.
Using the same technique as would be used with a 50 ohm coax first find the electrical quarter wave frequency . With the far end open and the near end attached to the analyzer tune for a dip at the lowest frequency. Going through several dips to get to the lowest one is normal. Both resistance and impedance should dip as close to zero as possible. If impedance is zero but resistance is high keep tuning until both are zero. Note the frequency.
Now find the next frequency up where both resistance and impedance dip to zero. This frequency should be triple the first frequency. This will be another odd multiple of a quarter wave and it should be the three quarter wave frequency. Make a mental note that the difference of these two frequencies is the electrical half wave frequency. For example the first frequency was one quarter wave length and the second frequency was three quarter wavelengths. The difference would be two quarter wave lengths or one half wavelength. How do we get to meaningful dimensions? We need the velocity factor.
The MFJ 259B has a built in advanced mode function called distance to fault. The distance to fault will be the electrical distance to the end of the cable. It will be longer than the cable itself because the insulation slows down the electrons (by an amount known as the velocity factor!) To find the distance to fault hold down both the mode button and the gate button at the same time until advanced mode appears on the screen. Press the mode button repeatedly until the distance to fault mode appears.
Repeat the steps above but this time enter the data into the analyzer. Go back to the lower dip frequency and press gate. This will become the 1st data. Next rotate the frequency knob to the next highest dip and press the gate button again. This is now the 2nd data. Press the gate button a third time and the distance to fault will appears.
We need to know the physical length of the cable so measure the total length with a ruler. Velocity factor is the quotient of the distances measured electrically by the analyzer and the actual measured length. Divide the physical length by the electrical length and the quotient is the velocity factor. An example would be .88.

Our research on radiotherapy for cancer treatments optimizes a narrow X-ray beam radiation dose that targets tumors while minimizing radiation exposure in surrounding healthy tissue. Though bombarding a tumor can help treat cancer, unfortunately, radiation doesn't pick and choose the cells it harms. Healthy tissue is often damaged in an act of "medical friendly fire." With the help of optimization models developed at WID, a wide array of data — MRI pictures of internal organs, varying oxygen content of human tissue, scattering tendencies of radiation beams and even the rise and fall of the patient's chest — can be parsed to minimize the collateral damage likely to be caused by lifesaving technology aimed in a less-than-optimal direction.
Combinatorial Screening
A problem often encountered by biologists centers around defining appropriate protein and drug (factor) concentrations in a mixture of signaling factors to realize a desired biological outcome. For example, this outcome may be realized in the production of a particular cell-type to be used either as a tool for discovery or a therapeutic. Current high-throughput […]

This is what we learn through an article in the ABC News: "Gino Biondi, the chief marketing officer for ScentAir, the company that developed the scent for Sony and makes the diffusers, says the smell of vanilla puts women, typically intimidated by electronics, at ease, while the mandarin denotes class. The bourbon is there for the guys. "It basically enhances the environment for a first great impression," says Biondi, whose company serves everyone from Express clothing to Mandalay Bay Resorts".
But scent in general aids consumerism. A study appearing in the Journal of Consumer Research, affirms that scents improve consumers' memory in relation to products, according to scientists at the University of Michigan and Rutgers University. The co-authors Aradhna Krishna, May Lwin and Maureen Morrin claim that scented products perform better in info memory tests vs. non-scented products. "This occurs even though the product scent is not reintroduced at the time of recall, and even when memory is assessed as much as two weeks after product exposure."
Martin Lindstrom, author of "Buyology: The Truth and Lies about How we Buy" gives some examples of how specific odours act subliminally and how they're used: Vanilla is considered comforting due to its evoking breastfeeding milk, therefore "making you feel childish, young, energetic" while wood reflects a back to nature, earthy, solid, classic set of values. On the other hand fruit is summery, thus making people feel "more open-minded, happy and sexual", while lavender affects the heart beat by slowing it down thus making people linger longer in the stores. Cigars and leather are the perfect choice for banks and law firms, apparently, as these odours reflect "conservative values" (supposedly people in power having the money to afford the smell items, I'd presume, so you feel like you're in the hands of authority and successful monetary churning). Several companies from fashion to cars (and even real estate) work with these guidelines in mind and the trend is only going to expand.

FROM THE FRONT | Madonna opens first Hard Candy Fitness center in Mexico City
YE OF bulging biceps and limber legs just opened the first gym of her new international chain Hard Candy Fitness (after her last album) in a posh Mexico City neighbourhood. Clearly, this woman's earning power knows no bounds...
What do you get for the $160 monthly dues and an initiation fee that's inching towards $1,000? Apparently Madonna has personally helped craft the classes (yoga, capoeira, dance, etc.) and you get to stare at giant Lichtenstein-esque pictures of the singer (for inspiration) while breaking a sweat on the rows of workout equipment in this vast space (3,000 square meters vast). America will have to wait, although we bet the UK won't have to for as long...
Russia, Brazil, Argentia and undisclosed locations in Europe and Asia are the next spots to get their own Hard Candy gyms. The US won't see one on its soil for some time.
Hard Candy Fitness has been opened by Madoona in partnership with the founder of 24 Hour Fitness, Mark Mastrov and her manager.
The strapline on the Hard Candy Fitness website? Harder is better. Clearly the mantra by which the material girls lives by when it comes to working out.
Get ready to work it like the Material Girl in Mexico City.

""I'd offer my skinned palm to shake your burned one, but that wouldn't work."
Sanctuary Point is a sleepy little town, especially since the war has taken most of the men away. That is, until there is a fire...and a murder. Erica doesn't know what to think now that her friend Ada is dead and is even more confused when she finds out that the fire was set on purpose. Who would do such a thing? It was a good thing Lorne had happened to be driving by or else she might have died as well. But who is Lorne and why does she feel so good around him? But perhaps they both need to come to grips with their lives and their relationships with God. Because how can they act on their growing feelings for each other if they don't get their pasts in order first? And that includes finding a dangerous murderer before someone blames them for it!
My Opinion: This novel does a great job pulling you into its world and wrapping you up in its mystery. Exciting and tense, you get absorbed into the story, trying to unravel the mystery before it's too late. The characters were colorful and warm. Erica is a strong, budding young woman in an age where women are dealing with a world with few men. Lorne is a tarnished war veteran, unsure of his worth and his place. Together they fall sweetly in love. Their interaction was wonderful as were the other characters in the town. Everything was well researched and you felt like you really had traveled back in time to this little town suffering the effects of the war. The Christian angle was apparent but not overwhelming - well written. This is one I would recommend.
I received a free copy of this book to review. No other compensation was given. The summary and review are 100% my own.

George Ball on the Middle East
When Iraq invaded Kuwait, the situation seemed urgent. American representatives had shown King Fahd and his Saudi advisers communications intercepts which indicated that Iraq might he intending to continue its predatory sweep to the Saudi oil fields. Since the Saudis by themselves would not be able to stop them, the King reluctantly decided to invite American help. That help was provided, but initially with only a limited objective: to protect Saudi Arabia and avoid what could become a dangerous monopoly of the world's oil resources.
As the situation evolved in further discussions at the UN Security Council, the objective of intervention was gradually reformulated. No longer was it a question simply of defending the Saudis. The crass lexicon of power politics gave way to a more abstract and thus nobler level of justification: the need now was to halt 'aggression' as that term is employed in the United Nations Charter. This new purpose found expression in 12 far-reaching resolutions which the Security Council adopted in the following few weeks. The first confirmed that Iraq's move against Kuwait had indeed constituted an 'aggression' – a finding which made available the enforcement machinery outlined in Chapter Seven of the UN Charter. As a first step in activating that machinery, the Council authorised a trade and financial embargo against Iraq.
Anxious to build emotional support for his policies, the President undertook to demonise Saddam Hussein, while also personalising the conflict to such an extent that it looked like a slanging match between a cartoon figure named Saddam and another named Bush. At the same time Secretary of State Baker, with his instinctive concern for domestic political approval, publicly stated that the purpose of American intervention was simply 'jobs'.
Mindful of the need to persuade the voters to support the huge troop deployments he apparently already had in mind, the President seemed to feel it essential to generate in them a virulent hatred of the opposition. That effort led many thoughtful Americans to question whether a democracy could ever conduct a limited war. If it was necessary to indulge in hyperbolic denunciations so as to get the people to fight, a leader, carried away by his own rhetoric, might easily end up going far beyond his original objectives in order to justify his vituperation. Sure enough, it soon appeared from what Bush was implying that America dared not content itself with anything other than the death of Saddam Hussein, or at least his removal from power. That inspired a futile and demeaning press discussion as to whether the Government ought to modify its settled policy forbidding the assassination of other nations' leaders.
Although passionate fulmination is the enemy of legality, it was finally called to the President's attention that all the Security Council had authorised was the enforcement of its resolutions: for the Council to sanction any action to change the Iraqi leadership would represent interference in internal affairs of a kind firmly excluded by the Charter. At the same time the reaction to the President's demagogic statements was so adverse that he hastened to restore the case for America's involvement to a higher plane by reverting to the vital need to halt 'aggression'.
Despite this new higher tone, the issue of oil continued to intrude in the public discussion. Although oil was something all Americans could understand, its significance as an issue ultimately depended on the prejudices of the individual interpreter. On the one hand, oil gave a grubby reality to America's decisions; on the other, it detracted from the purity of the American intention.
Questions of motivation apart, the events that led to the war were unambiguous. To enforce the trade and financial embargo, the Bush Administration organised a formidable coalition of both Arab and Western powers. Many hoped – and even assumed – that the President would thereafter try one by one to exhaust the whole list of non-violent measures set out in the United Nations Charter before resorting to military force. They also assumed that when he promised to move the nations to 'a new world order' he intended to use the UN machinery to shape his grand design.
Rumblings from the White House soon revealed a shift towards unilateralism. By November, the President began to express doubts that an economic embargo alone would secure full compliance with the Council's resolutions. Instead, he implied, the Coalition should back its economic enforcement efforts with the threat of military intervention, and his actions made it clear that he considered a visible deployment of military might essential to give credibility to that threat. As soon as the Security Council authorised its members to use 'all necessary means' to achieve the enforcement of its resolutions, he ordered a doubling of America's already huge deployment. This immediately complicated the issue. In the view of military leaders, a deployment of roughly half a million men and women rendered the system of rotating military personnel impracticable. Yet to retain such a huge complement of men and women under desert conditions for the indefinite period required to test the full efficiency of economic sanctions would, they felt, impose too much hardship. Since the feasibility of alternative strategies has now been made moot by the rapid conclusion of the war, that contentious issue can be left for future scholars. Yet victory need not preclude an honestly-faced regret that the experts were denied the chance to test the effectiveness of enforcement measures in a situation almost ideally designed for their use.
Similarly, the fact that the strategy finally adopted largely achieved its purpose should not discourage us from reflecting on the consequences of America's national impatience, which prevented us from testing the potential of Article 43 of the Charter. This provides for the creation of a true United Nations force flying the blue flag and operating through an international chain of command. By failing to avail ourselves of that provision we created at least the appearance of a Pax Americana, since it was the United States rather than the Security Council which took the key decisions.

Experimental investigations were mainly carried out to clarify the influence of the seabed proximity on hydrodynamic forces on a submarine piggyback pipeline under regular and irregular wave action. Nondimensional force coefficients for drag, inertia and lift on the piggyback pipeline were obtained with an equivalent diameter based on the Morison equation. The effect of the gap ratio e/D between the bottom of the large pipeline and the seabed on force coefficients of the piggyback pipeline was studied. The results indicated that the force coefficients initially decreased and then remained constant when e/D was beyond 0.5. In addition, a two-dimensional hybrid numerical model, FEM-k-ω-VOF, was applied for a numerical analysis. A comparison of numerical and experimental results showed that the calculated values of wave forces agreed well with those of the experiments and that the numerical model can be employed to predict the hydrodynamic forces on the submarine piggyback pipeline.

Sadie's Raqs Flow Training and Certification Program presents students with a comprehensive, in-depth curriculum to learn, experience and explore the rich diversity of the dance form commonly referred to as "Bellydance" in the West or "Raqs Sharqi" or "Oriental Dance" in the East. Students will receive the technical tools and training to gain mastery over the vast and evolving vocabulary of Bellydance movements from the traditional to the modern…
The Raqs Flow Level system
The Raqs Flow program is designed for students who seek to achieve personal growth and development through completion of all 4 levels. Levels 1 and 2 are open to anyone interested in learning more about Raqs Flow or just looking for in-depth training with Sadie, without the obligation to test. Levels 3 and 4 are closed to students who are certified in Level 1 and 2.
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Level 4
- Raqs Flow Level system 100%
Raqs Flow celebrates the belief that our bodies are innately designed for dynamic movement. Dancing is one of the most natural and primitive forms of self-expression, devotion, cultural heritage and social bonding.
Dance is very therapeutic and healing on both a personal and social level and is accessible to all! Aspects and benefits of dance are accessible even to those who are physically impaired or immobile.
Raqs Flow seeks to instill a deep understanding and appreciation of the technique, history and culture of Bellydance as well as examining the art form in terms of its historical and current context, relevance and application.
The training program allows students and professionals a safe, non-judgemental space to discover and study the many facets of the subject on a deeper level than would otherwise be possible.
The program empowers students with the knowledge and know-how of understanding their body and expressing themselves through dance movement; helping to removing all blockages, physical, mental and emotional that keep us from our flow. Raqs Flow respects each person's unique way of interpreting this art form as well as the journey that brought them to it, while honoring and preserving the traditions of this dance for future generations to enjoy. There is so much wisdom and culture of this ancient yet ever evolving dance.
The 250-hour—4 level program— educates, motivates and inspires students through direct interaction and participation in program intensives and immersion opportunities; such as retreats, workshops and tours. The program requires students to fulfill a required amount of hours toward intellectual study, projects, assignments and personal practice which can be done on their own time and at their own pace within the guidelines of the program.
The design of the program allows students to stay dedicated to the style of their preference while exploring and learning about the relevance and importance of all the styles that make up the art form. Students completing and earning certification in all 4 levels of the program will be eligible to participate in advanced level graduate courses which will offer specialized, focused training in certain professional topics.

Sadie's Raqs Flow
"Since I took the first Raqs Flow Level 1 in March 2015, I realized what my strengths and weaknesses are as a dancer and especially as a Bellydancer. The course inspired me to try out and continue learning as much and as many different styles of the dance as I can."Raqs Flow Student Eve
"All in all, the Level 1 certification went incredibly well. Not necessarily because of reaching some level of success, but for the whole experience. The many dance sisters and brothers I met and united with over laughs and food and of course making it through one of the most challenging physical workouts together! The incredible education Sadie & David provide on the origins, history, culture and rhythms of Oriental Dance. The beautiful movement and appreciation of each and every dancer."Raqs Flow Student Julia
"I feel as though I have been given the gift of rejuvenation. I have danced consistanly for over 20 years, but I rarely take the time to reflect, drill from the ground up, and focus on foundation.
I absolutely love the all encompassing approach of Raqs Flow. I feel the history and education on culture is invaluable.
This Raqs Flow journey has helped me grow as a student, mentor, teacher, choreographer and more."Raqs Flow Student Erin
"I was surprised at how Sadie is able to make things and movements I had mentally classified as 'beginner' hard again. After the weekend, my body was sore and tired! (In a good way.) It definitely was great drilling the fundamentals…."
Raqs Flow Student Liz
My program offers students a focused, in-depth curriculum to fully immerse themselves into the Oriental Dance arts. Raqs Flow was designed to develop technically strong, educated students who hold a broad understanding and scope of the dance form commonly referred to as Bellydance. Students will realize quickly that Raqs Flow is not about me or learning "my style". My main premise is to help students find their own voice and their own flow while exploring this rich, diverse art form.
The most common approach to learning Bellydance leads the majority of students to train in classes and "weekend warrior" style workshops that focus mostly on "bestselling" topics to sell out a class. This approach barely skims the surface of what this dance has to offer; if it even touches on it at all and ultimately leads dancers in the direction of imitation rather than creation.
This is a program for students looking to go a journey of personal development. My floor is open to students who are just discovering this beautiful dance as well as advanced professionals seeking a safe, non-judgemental space to continue honing their craft. As your mentor I will push you, challenge you and inspire you!
As of now, there is no governing body that qualifies or licenses Bellydancers to professionally teach, perform or offer a certification program. At least not by the standards of institutionalized higher education or other certifying agencies such as ACE in the fitness world or the Yoga Alliance in the yoga world. Maybe one day there will be, but for now Bellydance will continue to thrive the way it has for hundreds of years; and personally I think that leaves the frontier open for incredible artistic expression and creativity.
True, anyone can hang a shingle and call themselves a "professional" but this does not mean that there are not really great and worthwhile programs out there with incredible teachers, quite the opposite actually. It just means that you should do your homework in researching dancers. Ultimately it is you who will make the decision on whom you deem qualified based on what you are looking for in a teacher and who you connect with. When seeking an instructor or mentor, align with your personal dance goals and the type of people you want to surround yourself with.
I was motivated to create Raqs Flow by my students and their enthusiasm and trust in me! My ultimate inspiration comes from a place of deep gratitude and insatiable desire to empower others! I want people to fall in love with this dance as much as I have!
In the nearly two decades I have been practicing Bellydance I have performed and taught thousands of hours and thousands of students, in hundreds of cities in over 40 countries. I have made dozens of instructional videos and shared the stage with some of the worlds greatest legends and stars. I have had the privilege to discuss the politics and issues that are of concern in the Bellydance community with many of my peers and respected artists.
I have learned hard lessons and have been challenged and pushed to my limits. My enthusiasm to continue dancing has ebbed and flowed. I won't insult you by pretending that it is all glitter and glamour because it is not. To be great at anything takes patience, self-examination and growth.
To this day I train and study with our living grandmothers and grandfathers of the dance. I train my body through other modalities of movement and I strive to link the connections of a universal dance language as well as appreciate and perserve the uniqueness of Oriental Dance. Being a foreigner in love with an art form from Arab culture has motivated me to understand all that I can about it on a deep level. The journey never ends. I am a seeker! Teaching for me is the highest form of education.
Raqs Flow is not just a training program, it is a community of supportive, creative individuals. The real magic happens within the community setting. Raqs Flow is a beautiful way to network with other dancers and to find yourself surrounded by a positive, encouraging environment. That is the energy that I attract and uphold for all of my Raqs Flow trainings and retreats. If your looking for tough love and militant style training, then Raqs Flow may not be for you.
As a person who wishes to contribute to the beauty and kindness in the world you will not find any harsh, dogamtic teaching styles with me. While the Raqs Flow curriculum is physically demanding and challenging and I push my students to give their best and to break thresholds within themselves, at the end of the day, I treat all my students with respect for the individuals they are. There is no "one size fits all" conformity mentality in my program.
My ultimate goals is, once again, to empower students and leave them feeling better about themselves. If I can help anyone more deeply connect to their physical bodies, then I know that will positively impact all areas of their life.
Level 1 is open to all levels of dancers but it is recommended that you have some basic knowledge and experience with beginner Bellydance techniques and movement. As preparation for level 1, you can take online classes with Sadie or work with her DVDs to get familiar with her teaching style.
Level 1 and 2 are open to anyone interested in learning more about Raqs Flow or just looking for in depth training with Sadie without the obligation to test. Levels 3 and 4 can only be attended by students certified in Levels 1, 2 and 3.
Raqs Flow does not train dancers in any one style of "Bellydance"; it creates students who are aware of their body and helps them understand how to create dance movement. Raqs Flow will explore a handful of different techniques and postures to create the movements of the Bellydance vocabulary. These techniques are broken down into Sadie's specific format, referred to within the program as the "Raqs Flow Movement Vocabulary" as well as examining and breaking down what is referred to within the program as the "Raqs Sharqi Movement Vocabulary"; these are the core movements and steps that make up our dance form and have been adopted from culturally Arabic dances for as far back as we can historically document. Additionally other regional Middle Eastern styles will be studied, practiced and examined within the program.
The 4 level, 250 hour program will take students anywhere from 2-4 years to complete depending on the pace they want to set for themselves and the training offerings. Trainings will be offered more frequently as the program evolves.
No. There are many aspects, attributes and qualities a person must posses to succeed at anything in life. Raqs Flow helps students to develop many of those skills. It specifically gives students an edge as a technically trained and skilled dancer who understands the art form he or she is interested in making a profession within, however it is not a pass to success. Many of the graduate programs offered after the Level 4 begin to delve deeper into crafting a profession as a dancer.

I stamped the adorable Winky Bean by The Greeting Farm on Make It Colour Blending Card in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and coloured her up with my Copics. For once, I knew which papers I wanted to use and I have to admit it helped... A piece of old double-sided Bo Bunny paper and I cut the two patterns that reminded me of the flowers on my image, added a pearl to them and that was it - simples!
That's all from me today, have a lovely day! Hugs,

Why do our volunteers give up their time to present programs of carefully-selected music for you? Well, here's a partial answer.
Rob Nowicki was hosting "The Early Music Show" on August 8, 2011, and aired a particularly strong lineup of music from Telemann, Graun, Purcell.... and Bach.
Ah, Bach!
Rob aired Bach's Cantata # 169 "Gott soll allein mein Herze haben" BWV 169, from a Harmonia Mundi release featuring Bernada Fink, mezzosoprano; Frieburger Barockorchester; and Petra Mullejan, director.
After the program, he found the following voicemail from an anonymous caller, whose voice trembled with emotion.
"I am so happy to have heard this wonderful-not wonderful-magnificent!-ecstatic! divine! music…….The Bach has been beyond description-I am enchanted by it! I wish to send to the man who has been taking care of it all blessings-blessings on him and many, many thanks. Good bye."
We know we air great music that can stir the soul. It's wonderful when we receive an occasional acknowledgement.
If you'd like to hear this soul-stirring program, it's available for on-demand listening from our online tape vault. But you need to act soon -- our archive only holds programs aired in the past two weeks, and after that, this show will be lost to the ages.

Benign Fasciculation Syndrome (BFS) is characterized by widespread involuntary muscle activity consisting of muscle twitching or fasciculations. The cause is unknown and no anatomical or physiologic lesions have been identified to date. In 4 of the 14 patients (36%), the ENFD was significantly decreased in the calf, and normal at the thigh, and in 10 the ENFD was normal at both biopsy sites. Six of 11 patients tested (54%), had significantly decreased SGNFD; 2 at both the calf and thigh, 2 at the calf only, 1 at the thigh only, and 1 at the foot. The conclusions are that many patients with BFS exhibit a significant decrease in SGNFD or ENFD, with the SGNFD preferentially affected. Small fiber neuropathy should be investigated as a potential cause or contributing factor to BFS.

Muscle cramps (and/or twitching) are a common complaint and are thought to arise from spontaneous discharges of the motor nerve terminal. Polyneuropathy is often causative, but small-fiber neuropathy (SFN) has not been assessed. We performed skin biopsies on consecutive patients with cramps but without neuropathic complaints. Twelve patients were biopsied, 8 with normal small-fiber sensation. Seven patients had decreased intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD), 2 with non-length-dependent loss. A cause for neuropathy was found in 1 patient with cramp-fasciculation syndrome. Creatine kinase was elevated in 8 patients, 4 with decreased IENFD. Muscle biopsy, performed in 8 patients, but was diagnostic in only 1, with McArdle disease. Our data show that 60% of patients with muscle cramps who lack neuropathic complaints have SFN, as documented by decreased IENFD. Cramps may originate as local mediators of inflammation released by damaged small nerve that excite intramuscular nerves.

"It was Valentine's Day in Minnesota. It was cold and dark and bitter and that was just the people."
"A dark night in a city that knows how to keep its secrets. . . . But on the 12th Floor of the Acme Building, one man is still trying to find the answers to life's persistent questions: Guy Noir, Private Eye."
Like The Firesign Theatre's Nick Danger before him, GUY NOIR is a radio parody of old radio shows, the private detective genre, and just about any other target that comes into range.
But Guy lacks the loopy anarchy and abrasive cutting edge that The Firesign Theatre often brought to their satire. And no wonder. Guy appears in a series of radio sketches by nice guy Garrison Keillor, along with Walter Bobbie and the rest of NPR's Prairie Home Companion cast, a radio show that's been on since, as Guy puts it, "Jesus was in the third grade."
Still, the skits, which range from a few minutes to close to a quarter of an hour, are generally good-natured fun, complete with all the expected cracking wise, surreal plot twists, bad/great puns and guns going off all over the place that you've come to expect from any private eye spoof worth its fedora and office bottle. And Guy's a likable enough companion for a guided tour through the not-really-that-mean streets of St. Paul, Minnesota; a good-hearted dick prone to a little existentialist musing and "Did he really say that?" dead-pan observations. Particulalry when it comes to the ladies. This guy, you see, notices things...
He works out of the downtown Acme Building, but was originally from the New England village of (everyone take a breath) Piscacatawamaquoddymoggin.
And in his quiet, unassuming way, he's infiltrated the culture, even appearing in film in the 2006 film A Prairie Home Companion, as played by Kevin Kline. In the film, the perpetually down-on-his-luck gumshow is reduced to working as a security guard at a radio show to pay the bills.

When other people cry "Omakase" at a sushi bar, they mean, "Let the chef decide." When we say it, we mean, "Astonish me!" At first-rate midtown emporiums like Kuruma Zushi and Sushi Yasuda you get exquisite fish on perfect wads of vinegared rice. But there's something a bit ruthless and dull about it all: expensive jewels handed down by Olympian chefs to unworthy supplicants. We prefer the human touch -- and a bit more theatrical presentation -- and find it at Taka in the West Village. Taka is unorthodox in some respects -- its sushi chef and owner, Takako Yoneyama, is a woman -- but her omakase meals, reasonably priced at about $70 per person, are classic. A small plate (she makes the pottery herself) holds a seascape of perfumed giant clams nestled amid tiny raw oysters on the half-shell. The yolk of a quail egg on a clump of toro tartare is camouflaged by shredded seaweed: a little bird's nest. We love that she watches closely as you eat, because Takako aims to please, and her aim is always true.

When the topic of whether employee remunerations should be transparent is discussed, it is often hard to come to a consensus. Today, an increasing number of employees are requesting for a more honest and open approach to sharing information about everything from company financials to hiring decisions to employee salaries. On the surface, it may feel like it is a good idea to make employee salaries public, but there are certain factors you should consider beforehand and decide whether revealing the salaries of employees is good for your business.
Will it be motivating or demoralizing?
When employee pay matters are made transparent, this move can help to motivate your employees. They can see that there are obtainable and clear rewards when they put in extra effort in their duties and work activities. The idea of being able to increase overall productivity is definitely a huge plus as what you need to do is simply to make their salaries public. However, this may also create an opposite effect if certain employees feel that the extra effort they put in is not being rewarded in the form of monetary compensation.
How will your employees feel about pay matters being made public?
As every company has their own unique corporate culture, it is safe to assume that not all employees will be thrilled about the idea of having transparency around payroll matters. Some of them may feel that the big reveal is an invasion of their privacy. It will be wise to conduct an employee survey or speak to them individually to find out exactly how they will feel about salaries being made public before proceeding with any plan you have in mind.
Do your employees understand the different components of their salaries fully?
Many companies will have some sort of structure in place to determine how much an employee earns, whether it is based on factors like skill or seniority. While many employers may feel that the salary structures are straightforward, not all employees can understand the said structure and may become more disappointed when their salaries are made public. If you decide to make salaries public, you will have to be prepared to explain the pay structure as well as its gaps to your employees to help them understand better and prevent any potential resentment.
The issue with fairness
You may encounter instances of employees feeling slighted when they find out that some of their peers are earning more than them. While you as an employer understand how the salary structure works and that everyone is paid fairly as well as receives fair employee benefits, some employees may not agree with you. If you are going to go ahead, you must be prepared for backlashes. This is understandable as your employees are struggling to come to terms with their salaries being lower than others.
What about the state of things in your business? Has your company made salary information public? Do share with us in the comments!

It's happened to me way too many times to count. You pick out the perfect pair of jeans in a kick-ass wash. You wear them. And, because you are a normal hygienic human being, you throw them in the wash. When you pull your jeans out of the wash, you notice that they have faded — they aren't the same kick-ass shade they were when you bought them. Well, damn. Don't worry, I've got you covered with an easy trick to keep your jeans from fading in the wash.
Okay, yes, it sounds really weird, but it works! During the final rinse cycle of your laundry, pour in 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar. The vinegar will help keep the dye in your jeans and will help prevent your jeans from fading in the wash!

Who it's for: BNZ by Colenso BBDO and Finch
Why we like it: by putting $6 million of shredded cash on display, BNZ manages to give Kiwis a tangible look at how much money they are losing through their mortgage payments. The immediate impact of seeing a huge pile of destroyed cash struck a chord with the online community, resulting in a rapid response and vigorous debate on a varied range of topics.
Who it's for: Ecostore by Ahi Rands, Ecostore's in-house team and Jake Hocking
Why we like it: In early September a crudely crafted cartoon figure called Eco Man hopped onto YouTube and told the story behind Ecostore. And much like all great superheroes, Eco Man has returned for a sequel in which he explains the benefits of using plastic made from sugarcane. The conversational delivery when combined with the quirky animations make an important and somewhat complex message more accessible and gives consumers a reason to make an environmentally friendly choice.
Who it's for: Foodstuffs by Colenso BBDO and Finch
Why we like it: Foodstuffs shows that retail advertising isn't only limited to shouting about products in another slightly absurd ad that makes use of New World's partnership with NZ Netball. As a recent StopPress article pointed out, New World most certainly doesn't apply a drug-testing policy to its staff.

October has flown by, but it will not be over until I share our favorite recipe for pumpkin bread! Bursting with flavor and open to add-ins, this bread is a fall tradition for our family.
Despite all the ingredients, preparation is a cinch!
Mix the wet ingredients.
Mix the dry ingredients.
Mix together.
Add in some raisins or toasted nuts if you want. Chocolate chips would be yummy too! It is fun to experiment with it!
Bake in 2 loaf pans (yes, it makes two – give one away!) and let it cool before slicing. Then enjoy a taste of autumn!
Autumn Spice Pumpkin Bread
1½ cups brown sugar
½ cup oil or applesauce
2 eggs, beaten
1 (15-oz.) can pumpkin, or 2 cups fresh pumpkin puree
1/3 cup water

¾ cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. allspice
½ tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp. cloves
½ tsp. nutmeg
¼ tsp. baking powder
½ cup raisins
½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans, toasted
- Mix sugar and oil. Add eggs, pumpkin, and water.
- Sift dry ingredients together; add to pumpkin mixture and blend well.
- Stir in raisins and nuts if desired.
