This week my mom and my oldest niece are visiting, so we are busy busy enjoying each other's company! Yesterday my mom went with me to my Stroller Strides class, then we ran around town doing various things all day. It was raining, so we came back home, lounged around and watched the Hunger Games movie, then had an evening of pampering, I got my toes and nails done by my niece, plus we did facials, and hair! A great Monday indeed.
Today, now that the rain is gone, we have plans to go to the State Park and go hiking and enjoy a picnic in the wonderful weather! Which I am so thankful we are having! I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday! Follow me on Instagram to see some fun pictures from my week!
Today I'm joining my favorite link-up, with two awesome ladies, Jessica Joy & Jill Conyers! Check out their blogs, because they are awesome, and incredible fitness enthusiasts!
So today's Fit Dish topic, is to talk about 5 People that you would love to workout with! Well for me, I'm just going to share my #1!
Since before I got married, 2008ish, I have been working out with her! And I am so jealous of those that went to Ideafit last year and got to experience her awesome enthusiastic, fit self, and do one of her awesome workouts with her.
Who is it you wonder?
Well I started with Turbo Jam, and later fell in love with Turbo Fire as well.
Yep, CHALENE JOHNSON!
I absolutely love her!
First I fell in love with her workouts! That's one reason why I love group fitness, and especially kickboxing! Turbo Jam was my Jam for so long!
That is the workout I did before getting married, and I felt so toned and fit then! I definitely could tell that it impacted my body.
Later I graduated to Turbo Fire, and once again, I just loved it too!
Then, just this past year I started listening to her podcasts, especially The Chalene Show.
This is basically the only podcast I listen to, and it's my go-to headphone choice while running. Even when I run for 2+hours straight, I just have several of her episodes lined up to stream one to the next.
Once I started listening to her podcasts I realized she is so much more than just a fitness instructor.
First off, I love that she is a Christian woman, who prioritizes and loves her family well, even through all of her successes. And, when listening to her, you learn these two things very quickly.
Secondly, she pushes you to be the best you possible. In every aspect of your life. She's motivating, and has tons of life tips that help you be the best you!
Lastly, she's a huge business woman. And as I have recently discovered the entrepreneur in myself, I enjoy listening to her so much. She is a wealth of wonderful information. There is so much that I can learn from her, and have learned from her.
I have even had my husband listen to her with me, and we have both gotten so much out of her podcasts, through personal, and business development!
So, all that to say, Chalene Johnson is my #1 choice of who I would workout with if I had a choice! I would love to be in her workout class, getting cheered on and motivated to kick harder, and punch more fiercely!
And I would add to that, I would also love to sit under her, post workout with her of course, and let her tell me all sorts of awesome personal, business, and mom tips!
Basically I would love to meet her and learn from her, and obviously take a selfie with her!
So who would you want to workout with if you could pick one person!?!
[bctt tweet="Hm...if I could pick one person to workout with...it would have to be @chalenejohnson! What about you!? #thedishfit #leaveyourlegacy @brittanysuell"]

thank you Duncan,
and bless you!
downloaded that i could, I am only at the beginning of the Rv process so your understand is wonderful to read. I will make this short as I am a little busy tonight and cant really have a good look at the information....
I am feeling that the time of hiding from the men in black is over! I had a attempt of my life about seven years ago, but I am WAY too well protected.
back soon my Go Man Duncan
Fun With RV
Well I have started!
pulling stuff to bits is great fun! and response Photo to share the carnage!
Once again thank you Duncan for the message and photos of parts of your setup! all looks like a very beautiful attic of treasures, and a well insulated one too!
you gave me a lot to think about and I am sure my path will roll over infrount of me in perfect timing as usual....
be injoy
Ah yeah -- thats the start of the game . and if your lucky that pully will come off without to much of a fight. I'll have a little wish for you
Whatever you can do,or dream you can,begin it.Boldness has genius,power and magic in it.Begin it now.
yea! needs to find mi Alan keys!
Come Alan Where Are YA
got a great geny will put up a vid on the morrow...dreams are sweet indeed!
A few more odds and sods
Just an off the cuff observation which seemed very obvious to me but most seem to miss Bodkins, If you want or dare to hope for COP>1 (and of course we all know such thoughts are madness and COP>1 researchers are lunatics don't we ??) then any use of real power is an anathema and a drastic change of thinking is required. let me toy with that idea for you for a few lines
Of course you must use some real power and hence energy after all its the only thing we know how to engineer and you can't build what you can't understand, Its like throwing darts blindfolded. still its obvious the idea is to use as little real power input as possible-- the thinking is, its for little more than a timing reference, to hold this mathematical dimention (if you like)
Even the very light drag of the grease in the bearings is very detrimental . Which I guess you already know as I see your ready with the brake cleaner, Thats also why other builders stress getting those bearings clean and why getting the fan off is so important.
The same goes for the Hatem cascade type machines,The ones that work have very efficient VDUs and extremely efficient (and very expensive) drive motors ,also the alternator being used is a top notch permanent magnet conversion made originally for wind turbines. a typical car alternator has to be and always is an epic fail! I might suggest that you draw a rough graph of the energy gains as experienced by mindfreeer rotor by rotor in his pfd extrapolate that Fibonacci graph backwards and forwards w.r.t energy and you'll see what a very tight operational band your trying to slide into regardless of which system your considering.
All that balancing things and high efficiency it turns out are very important and explain why so very few of these garage built machines worked.
For the moment Bodkins consider that another form of unknown energy might be entering the systems and yet we don't know from where, It seems obvious that to arrange to measure the input and the output is the next step. But measure the input where?
The machine is no respecter of your house KW/hr meter in fact it doesn't even see it.
perhaps the input should be assumed to be from the nearest substation in the street ? perhaps from the generator windings back at the generating station? even to stretch the elastic how about the from energy used to make the coal that makes the steam to drive the generator? standard engineering dictates a loss of efficency at every step. I believe Its this dilemma Tesla was considering when he admonishes us to consider the whole circuit , Of course in our garages and sheds we simply put meters in where its convenient to us and call it "the input", and yes - we are that arrogant. I'll share some of my thoughts here Bodkins or at least where I drew the line in the sand and why.
There are quite a lot of mysteries on our world which we are asked to believe are simply unknown and which like sleeping dogs are simply left to lay. Gravitation is one ,evaporation another - that huge irrigation engine thats been running totally freely for millions of years, and that most common of electrical machines the transformer (just number three of many) The roto-verter had its Genesis in the transformer alas the in depth training video's done by Dan Combine and others which dealt with the ferromagnetic resonance of the trans-verter have been removed.
Here is a section of vintage video by EPD and Chris Carson (RIP) which explain why transforms and by extension squirrel cage induction motors motors don't and can't work as we are taught. The bit of specific interest is 6 min onwards
Some time ago Aaron released a book called 'The quantum key'
The books conjecture is (and I know I'm carving this up for brevity apologies Aaron,feel free to spit the dummy out ) gravity is actually an external omni directional force across the universe.
If you apply that thinking to transformer cores then the pieces start to fit and it starts to look like in practice we are engineering to a mirror image of real events.
I just had a look at your profile Bodkins to see where you are . My house supply here in the UK is 230 volt and so 110 volt site transformers are common here for building site use . Installing one of those transformers to step down voltage is a big help on the way to running on the lowest possible voltage. From the secondary of that transformer is also where I opted to make input measurements. Either end of that transformer must be anti phase and so to my view embraces this very different view of how the electric universe really works. - still you've got plenty to play with yet before you start scratching your head with these thoughts, still they will rough and tumble in the back of your mind I hope.
good luck with that pully by the way , ended up stripping the bearing pullers on mine
btw Bodkins here's the inverter hack that might be capable of fine tuning and looping the RV, and might have started the **** flying.
http://dnp.s3.amazonaws.com/b/b2/INV...CY Updated.pdf
you might not be to worried about these very nasty guys still if you get that far I would err on the side of caution. seems to me when the **** does hit the fan it doesn't get distributed evenly but comes flying out in great big lumps

I worked in the operating theatre many years and understand the heart uses energy from out side the body to implode....So in one sense you implode the experience around you to create your reality around you.
This is how one can over come the fear by imploding it thru your heart.. this will create the reality coming to you from the portal of your heart and give you a heart attack if you block the heart up!.....
There are some others portals that I AM not going into as its the greatest Secret On Earth...
well I got to go and create a reality, back soon after I have had the time to really check your links, GoodMan Duncan
until then here a video
ps. yes uk Yorkshire!
much heart imploded reality creating Joy; Bodkins
winter reading
one of my fav books is this!
glowing ball of magnetism.......... I look out the window and i see greenish (its fall) trees and green grass! I believe electricity has six currents. Positive and negative to me are north and south poles and another two are dimensional shifted. And the last two may just be my eyes!..lol...
Duncan, I have done loads of this stuff before, like seven years ago, but your helping me remember which is so important to me... cheers !
the pulleys a nightmare may drill its out somehow,
the builder 110 volts site transformers is a good idea Duncan. But that may have to wait till I am up to speed with the motor first using variable speed drive. I am not to fuss about input yet..
to much on the shopping list at the moment, need to wait for the universe to bring me the things I need.... in the past i purchase loads of stuff i never used... So now I take it easy and enjoy the process....
Thinking about it i may leave the pulley on for the time being.... something has just been given me!....that I can use for now!
be injoy
Check your PM.
Kind regards
Inverters and batteries , surgery and oddities
I like the motor . It seems like its a permanent magnetic field too? if so it couldn't really be much better. not so sure about the pulley, your fighting for every Joule at that stage and I don't know what the transfer efficiency is.
Thanks for the book Bodkins I've made a start on it but It'll take me a while to digest the information.
I'm not to far away from you Bodkins I live in Kendal .
I've never been inside an operating 'operating theater' or at least only as a horizontal quest as my Gall bladder and I parted company. Having read the introduction and a few pages of the book you suggested and simply based on the few comments you have made I include a few simple observations and clips you might find interesting as an aside. One of the first to split water using almost no energy, (before Stan Meyer) was Andrija Puhurich his research developed from his work in hematology . Andrija it seems was a respected GP and surgeon quite apart from other things . This clip on surgery he witnessed is quite what shall we say - odd
You probably noted that frequency and water featured in his research. Its an odd fact that we ourself s are something like 80% water and although no chemist, I read that at the sub molecular level that rises up to the high 90 s . so it seems there could well be a secret side to water,life and we humans . Just to stay with the theme . Prof Emoto
I'm sure especially if you have come under threat yourself that you have already seen and done some odd things , so simply conjecture follows . The examples of the RV that were looped and so COP>1 all without exception involved batteries . I believe at least part of the COP >1 action is dependent on action internal to that battery.
I offer you a cheap and simple experiment to try so if it fails no great loss. I say fails because in involves human interaction and we are non of us the same. you have seen no doubt that we are electric beings and limbs and nerves are now being pulse stimulated. At the other end of the scale is this (for instance)
Incidentally being also in the UK you know we are just about to do Bonfire night . A little research shows that BONfire is actually named after a Tibetan Shaman's title which would have been known to the maritime Empire the BON-PO . The public exam and test set for the aspiring Bonpo was to mentally ignite dry leaves - as you have see being done here. Much the same thing is duplicated by many Red Indian sect shamens is my understanding
The Bon Foundation-About Bon
as a youngster Bodkins I watched chicken eggs being 'sexed' by a farmer using a pendulum (divining) not knowing any different I thought it quite natural and did it myself. obviously the farmer wanted more Chickens but wasn't to keen on anymore Roosters . Rooster eggs were destined for the frying pan! whilst some of the chicken eggs were allowed to prosper. to cut this short I got quite good at divining - I thought it was quite natural and saw nothing odd in it. Until --
I spent an evening talking with the 3BGS guy David Bowling and replicated the simple circuit that started his investigation.
The circuit was so simple I won't bother drawing it - two gel cell batteries from an electric bike. one very old sulfated and useless, In fact putting a DVM across it on the resistance range showed a resistance of greater than 10Mohm either way. I bought a powabyke which had been left in a shed uncharged for 2 years Bodkins , In the bike were the old batteries and the guy also gave me a new set (so I could change them). one old battery was connected to one new battery in series but reversed - in other words both negatives were connected together, across the two + terminals a small brushed DC motor I think it came from a buggered battery screw driver . well I guess there's a circuit of sorts but with a 10M ohm resistance in there I didn't believe anything could possibly happen. And it didn't (at least not for a while) I simply sat there watching this thing like a dumpling. I was of course willing the bloody thing to turn, and much to my amazement it did, very slowly at first, I found for a short while I could start and stop the thing mentally much as I used to move those divining rods but each time it was getting faster and harder to do; after the fifth time it was impossible and the motor just ran faster and faster It also iced up the battery posts of the old battery - a very strange experience which I have never managed to fully duplicate.
Still Bodkins at the back of your mind those oddities are now linked and I don't really know how or why it fits into the RV and COP >1 story. but I'm sure it does
Kind regards Duncan

I toured festivals doing Cymatic displays with my wife, we make geo-domes out of bamboos... and do installations (she is a artist), the last one was in Sheffield and had 36,000 visitors..
I once built a machine that pulsed the planet (like tesla) and the house nearly fell down!.
I play a 444hz turned guitar that has only five strings and no bridge, so it sounds like a sitar! I lived In Ireland for six months with a bloke who built Harps...
I do energy work, vibration work for the collective.
We had a 50 shamans group stay in the grange where I live and they thanked me for Holding a space for them to do there work....
A priest one said to me "if people could see what you do they would throw money at you" he called me the "Spiritual Bouncer "
I have had a near death experience, And I told them up there "you cant call time of them, they have been denied the Knowledge"
The 10Mohm resistor is what I will be using on my 24 volt fan charger! Just waiting for the stuff to tip up to start building......
I wish to organise a energy conference in the uk at the grange (Hill ) (I sent you a private message) of the location. I would like you to get involved and do a talk? Bring some stuff? No Fear!
Good Morning/Evening Duncan!.....
wife artwork attached and a cymatics video I did at Why Not festival!
ps one last thing My real name is Richard Spray, I don't use this much online as dick is short for Richard(Dick Spray) I tell ya school was hard!...lol...

Well and good Rich - happy to help anyway I can whenever . I dont have any PM from you as yet PMs are not very secure I guess - kindest regards Duncan.
Whatever you can do,or dream you can,begin it.Boldness has genius,power and magic in it.Begin it now.
Cheers Duncan, I will keep playing with the motor and post once i get anything in the line of progress.
Take Cake Goodman Duncan, and Thanks for the info!
you'll have a lot of fun with the RV Bodkins ,I did . There's plenty of information out there on all the basics as I guess you know.
The stuff thats missing is all the COP>1 practical steps understandable alas. I'm enjoying this book BTW although a bit difficult to take a different stance and view point .
I enjoyed your short video on Cymatics and I dare say it impresses. at the festivals,
It crossed my mind that you could do worse than combine it with a simple Theremin set in steps across resonant frequencies - nothing like audience participation . I'll scribble a little bit on what I understand of the odd history of Cymatics a little later although you can probably tell me more than I can tell you !
There's just to many things I want to do and not enough time or money ! The researchers curse.
You write you managed to construct a house shaking thing a'la Tesla -- Don't think I'll try that thanks, not now the mortgage is paid off anyway! Don't really mind leaving Nationwide a heap of rubble but I prefer something with a roof a'top .
I will PM you my contact details Bodkins as there are other pictures and info I'd like to send you Simply ping me a return email or if the PM doesn't work (its always seemed very shakey and insecure to me) I'll post my Phone number. Kindest regards Duncan
Whatever you can do,or dream you can,begin it.Boldness has genius,power and magic in it.Begin it now.
Well I think that's it for me on this forum.....

The small eatery in Kafr Canna is abuzz with life. Some folks are take-awayers. Others, like Hani and me, dine in. Or out, I suppose.
We sit at a table out front. Between us is a spread of delights: round pita bread, golden falafel balls, and a variety of Arabic "chip dips." We dig in.
Tour busses rumble by as we dine. What attracts foreigners to this dusty place, however, is not the food. It is the drink. The aftertaste has lingered here for more than a millennium. Like the variety of "chip dips" on my table, signboards use color and texture to announce the village's market niche: "Cana Wedding Wine," "The First Miracle Sovner Store," and "Wine's Shop and Souviners."
Travelers searching for a bottle of wine to complement a carved wooden camel need not look further. The fruit of the vine, oinos (Gk), yayin (Heb), or nabeeth (Arab) is intrinsic to life in Kafr Canna. It has been a part of this place for a long time.
Literary residues (Amarna Letters) suggest that "Reed Town" has rested beside these marshy vales since the Late Bronze Age. (Incidentally, the term kanna is derived from a root meaning "reed," "rod," or "measure." Elsewhere, it gives us our word "canon," as in "a literary canon." Kafr is just the standard semitic term for "village.") Archaeological excavation in private plots show that Kafr Canna was inhabited from the Neolithic period to the present. It is an extremely old site in good grape country overlooking the Turan Valley.
The event that puts the place on the map though, is a wedding miracle. The story is told by John alone (2:1-11) and has familiar edges. Jesus and family (from nearby Nazareth) attend a party where the wine runs out. With the festivities in jeopardy and the honor of the family at risk, Jesus directs the servants to fill six large stone jars (normally used for Jewish ritual purification) with water. When sampled, somehow, the water has turned to wine! The feast continues! The dim-witted party-master acknowledges the surprise: "Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now" (Jn 2:10).
Other than this exclamation of reversal (and its identity as Jesus's first "sign"), no additional commentary is issued. The reader is left scratching. Is this a "good trick," a "luxury miracle," or something more? (Our teetotaling friends would prefer that the miracle it be censured in some way; turning wine to water might be more to their liking!) One thing is certain though: the account cannot be ignored. It sits there, fermenting at the front end of John's Gospel.
Hani and I sit at the table, sharing events from more recent memory. I tell him how I was scared by dogs outside of Nazareth and got lost inside of Mashhad. He laughs. He tells me about his car troubles and growing family. Now we both laugh. He is truly my Arab brother.
Behind the cafe where Hani and I are eating is a structure commemorating Jesus's wedding miracle. Known as the "Franciscan Wedding Church," it is perhaps the most visited place in town. Six large stone jars rest in the building's apse. Tourists often stop here to renew their wedding vows or to rest up before shopping. The tradition linking this site to the miracle is old (8th c. AD), but not ancient.
John's story of the wedding miracle communicates many ideas. Among them are Jesus's endorsement of marriage, his willingness to engage the community, or even his concern for an embarrassed family. However, an even more profound preachment should not be overlooked.
John weaves the words of the party-master into the account in a way that addresses the larger trajectory of Israel's history. Wine has been served in the past, no doubt. Traditional ablutions (using stone jars) have been practiced in the past, no doubt. But with the coming of Jesus, the very best now sits at the table. Some, like the party-master, have no idea who is among them or what is going on! Others, like the disciples, dare to believe. Might this story be telling us that the embodiment of Israel's hopes and fears has arrived at last, and that the long-awaited wedding party of God is about to begin?

Kerrianne Taylor is a London-based experienced professional who specializes in editing, producing, and content creation for the TV and online industry. During her time at Channel 4's on-demand service, All4, she worked on award-winning shows such as the 2016 Rio Paralympics, Stand up to Cancer, Made in Chelsea, and Scandal. She also co-wrote, directed, and produced an independent short film, Raw Deal, which explores a fictional perspective on the 2011 England Riots, following the journey of 17 year old Imran and his sister as they struggle to make ends meet. She felt that coming from a working class background similar to the rioters, she had a duty to provide a visual account of their experiences and give audiences the opportunity to understand the plight of the young people dependent on the government services that were removed under the watch of Prime Minister David Cameron. As a result of feeling frustrated by the lack of diverse representation, since her early teens she has been determined to broaden the perspectives and voices reaching the public and transform perceptions of contemporary Britain through the visual medium of storytelling.
In 2013, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg's team invited her to be involved with his Opening Doors Campaign to come up with ideas as well as present to several young people with similar backgrounds about her journey entering in the industry as an Assistant Video Producer. This opportunity lead her to becoming a social mobility ambassador for not only Channel 4, but for the TV industry as a whole.

Identifying the influential factors in business' performance is an important cornerstone in business research. Although the study of franchise failure and success has received significant attention among researchers, the lack of knowledge about influential factors on franchisees' performance as an integral part of the franchise system, as well as the consequences of franchising, has resulted in a gap in the franchise literature. According to previous literature, business success and failure results from the three major elements of resources, capacity and competency. Given the firm's resources have a considerable share in explaining the variation of firms' performance, the resource-based view provides an outstanding theoretical explanation for varying performance of the firms, and it looks to be promising for analyzing the franchisee's performance. In franchising systems, provided services by the franchisor have a crucial role in franchisees' performance. Therefore, this research was conducted to show how provided services by the franchisor, through impact on product and services' quality, consistency, price and customer awareness, could enhance the franchisee's performance.
Although there is a large body of literature on franchising systems that are mainly produced from the franchisor's perspective, looking at franchising from the franchisee's point of view has remained largely uninvestigated. Creating and sustaining competitive advantage is the prerequisite for the franchisee's (as an SME) survival in today's competitive environment. This research's comprehensive literature review shows three major groups of factors influencing the franchisee's competitive advantage, including the franchisor-related factors, the franchisee-related factors, and factors associated with the franchisor-franchisee relationship. Since the franchisor has a dominant role in the business, it can influence the franchisee in many ways. Therefore, it is crucial to put special emphasis on how the franchisor-related factors may influence the franchisee business success.
In light of the discussion above, this study was carried out to understand how franchisor-related factors, through enhancing/creating competitive advantage, might influence the franchisee's business success. According to the literature on competitive advantage, three clusters of literature as three perspectives were reviewed and discussed. These include the resource-based view, the industry structure view, and the relational view. In the resource-based view, the firm's resources are considered as a source of competitive advantage, but in the relational view, not only the firm's internal resources, but also the interfirm resources are the source of competitive advantage. Therefore, this perspective has a significant contribution to this study. In addition to services provided services by the franchisor, as the resources, franchisor organizational factors specifically entrepreneurial orientation, and absorptive capacity were found relevant in the franchisee's competitive advantage. Accordingly, an integrative theoretical/analytical framework was built and used throughout the study.
Because of exploratory nature of the study, the qualitative method was chosen and applied. Along with the purpose of the study, a multiple-case study research strategy consisting of seven cases, in two franchising systems, was performed. The results of the analysis confirm that services provided by the franchisor, the franchisors' entrepreneurial orientation, and the franchisees' absorptive capacity have a significant role in enhancement of the franchisees' competitive advantage. Other significant results of the franchisor-related factors enhancing competitive advantage were found to be: the speed of raw material supply, keeping consistency in quality, economy of scale and keeping prices competitive. Furthermore, the franchisor enhances the franchisee's competitive advantage by transferring business know-how and creating collective tacit knowledge, and as well improvement in the franchisee-specific human capital. Intellectual property in a franchise system through transferring the first mover advantage to the franchisee and creating the differentiated position affect the franchisee's competitive advantage. The franchisor's entrepreneurial orientation creates the first-mover advantage for the franchisee. Similarly, the franchisor's absorptive capacity, through creating the first-mover advantage and improving the franchisee's social capital, enhances the franchisee's competitive advantage.

Hopscotch Films
Now Showing
Robert Smith: Nazi Hunter. That's one glib way to describe the odd yet oddly intriguing This Must Be The Place, a road movie of sorts with a Sean Penn performance unlike any other.
Penn plays Cheyenne, a one-time pop star who, despite his retirement from the music scene and his self imposed exile in Ireland, has kept his rock and roll wardrobe; a goth-drag combination which would appear to be modelled on The Cure's frontman, Mr. Smith, by way of Edward Scissorhands.
Cheyenne's comatose-like speech and movement, however, would suggest that Penn is also channelling present day Ozzy Osbourne. It's this distinct way of speaking -- a crackly whisper, if you like -- which some may find off putting, even annoying, but stick with it; Cheyenne will prove to be one of the most original and endearing characters of cinema 2012.
Filling his days wandering around his mansion, playing a variation of handball in the emptied swimming pool with his fire fighter wife, Jane (a too little seen Frances McDormand), and hanging with the young Mary (Eve Hewson), whom he attempts to play matchmaker for, Cheyenne also attempts to keep at bay the guilt over the death of a band mate who didn't make it out of the heady days of the early 1980s music scene.
But Cheyenne's life is taken in a whole new direction when he is called home to New York to see his estranged, ailing father. He's too late (travelling by boat rather than flying) as it turns out, but Cheyenne decides to take up his father's life long mission: hunting down the Nazi guard who humiliated him during his internment in Auschwitz.
It's here that Italian director Paolo Sorrentino's film (named for the Talking Heads song; front man David Byrne appears in the film) takes on the form of a road movie, as Cheyenne travels cross-country in pursuit of his man, experiencing a variety of encounters and connections along the way, including Nazi hunter, Mordecai Midler (Judd Hirsch), and single mum, Rachel (Kerry Condon).
Sorrentino, making his first English language film (co-written with Umberto Contarello), says he started with the idea of the life of an elderly Nazi criminal and worked backwards from there; someone to hunt for the Nazi and the unlikeliest person to do so. Hence, Cheyenne. Not just a pop star but one seemingly in a child-like state and floating through life; tethered only by a small suitcase on wheels which he takes everywhere. Yep, this guy has baggage!
But Sean Penn makes this man with the mousy voice and the androgynous look so appealing, so endearing that any doubts -- said voice and look -- are soon forgotten. And Penn, not surprisingly, manages to balance humour and pain almost effortlessly, rendering Cheyenne as human and not a mere gimmick.
Beautifully shot by Luca Bigazzi (the film's final scenes in Utah are stunning), This Must Be The Place has an almost dream-like hue to it, adding to the overall surreal quality of both the story and its protagonist.
And if like a dream, it doesn't necessarily make complete sense, the film, and Cheyenne, won't be so easily forgotten.

They really milked one of my favourite songs. I didn't mind the film, but I rolled my eyes every time the song was played in all it's different guises.ReplyDelete
Confession: I'd never heard of the song before this film (don't hate me!), but I have since acquired both the original and the Arcade Fire versions. And the scene where the kid sings it, cute!ReplyDelete

Cancer's penicillin moment?
That's partly a reflection of the promising results this experimental new drug has been producing in early stage clinical trials - successfully shrinking tumours in patients suffering from malignant melanoma - but also because of the way the drug was developed.
PLX 4032 is one of the first in a new class of drugs specifically designed to target the abnormal molecular activity resulting from an individual genetic mutation - in this case the B-RAF gene, which is stuck in the "on" position in malignant melanoma.
Its chemical structure is described in a paper in the journal Nature, which outlines the drug's discovery, development and functioning.
We've known for some time that all cancers are the result of mutations in individual genes, but it's only been in the last few years that a phenomenal increase in the computational power of gene sequencing has allowed scientists to begin to sift the DNA code, comparing healthy and diseased cells and teasing out the subtle variations that give rise to cancer. That's given drug companies new targets for drug therapies like the mutated B-RAF gene in malignant melanoma, a previously incurable form of skin cancer.
"We really are at a remarkable moment," according to the Director of the Sanger Institute Professor Mike Stratton. "Modern sequencing techniques give us the potential to identify all of the genetic mutations that give rise to cancer. We've entered the end game in which we're going to complete our understanding of what causes cancer."
Of course getting to that end game is not the same thing as crossing the finishing line. Simply identifying all the genetic mutations that give rise to all the different types of cancer remains a colossal sequencing task, and even where that's achieved there's no guarantee that drug companies will be able to develop suitable treatments.
But the power of DNA sequencing does at least put us on a level playing field with cancer, and the hope, as one researcher put it, is that genomics may be about to deliver cancer's penicillin moment.

Thank you *so* much for providing a link to the original research. All science writers should do that, but so few do!

In your blog and your piece on today this morning you didn't mention the company who have developed PLX4032 or even hint that it had been developed in the commercial sector.
Why do journalist persist with the convention that new drugs are discovered by "scientists", while stories that mention pharmaceutical companies invariably focus on the profits they make or the side-effects of an on-market drug.
Comment number 3.At 14:29 15th Sep 2010, Ian Eiloart wrote:
...From which we divine that in clinical terms, this is an incremental step forward. Tumours regrew after a few months, having acquired resistance to the drug. In just two of 32 subjects, the tumours disappeared. So, we may see a small increase in survival, and a few months longer for more patients.
I guess the exciting thing is that this does represent the breaking of a deadlock for this particular cancer, and that breakthrough came from the information provided by gene sequencing.

This was a very interesting piece (on Thursday at about 08:20) about the possibility of a "Penicillin Moment" for cancer ...
... and so was the article today (Friday, at about 08:20) about the conference at the University of Arizona bringing together physicist, mathematicians, cosmologist and biologists to talk to each other to try to find new ways to address the *lack* of a "Penicillin Moment" for cancer.
Hmmm, perhaps there needs to be some thinking about new ways for the BBC science editorial staff to talk to each other.
Comment number 5.At 13:49 4th Nov 2010, Annie wrote:
My husband took part in this trial. Unfortunately he was one of the unlucky ones. He didn't make it. At first everything seemed to be going fine. All the tumours in his body shrunk by nearly 40%. Then it was dicovered the cancer was in his brain where the experimental drug was ineffective because it couldn't cross the blood brain barrier. Fifty per cent of advanced melanoma cases develop metastases in the brain and of course any malignant cancer that has spread to several sites within the body may also spread to the brain. I asked the doctors what research was being done to find treatments that could cross the blood brain barrier and the answer came back 'very little'. We will not have beaten cancer until we have an answer to this problem. He died earlier this year, six months after diagnosis. A year before that he had every appearance of being perfectly healthy and very fit for his age.

Digital tools and technologies continue to disrupt both industries and job functions.
As it relates to generating revenue, digitalization has had a great impact on the role and competencies of both marketing and sales talent in B2B companies.
While revenue growth is a company-wide responsibility, your sales and marketing leadership and teams remain on the front lines of finding, winning and keeping customers.
The revenue capture process that many companies have operated with for a very long time has been completely disrupted by the new buyer's journey (fueled by an abundance of information and ease of access).
Adapting to this new environment, organizations are accelerating capabilities in both established and new functional areas, including:
- Sales
- Business development
- Content marketing
- Inbound marketing
- Sales enablement
- Customer success
- Demand generation
- Research and insight development
Talented professionals that perform well in this new environment are not easy to find. There is a very good chance that the tools and processes behind today's most successful revenue generators were not taught in their formal learning environment.
In this new normal, job candidates with a penchant for team contribution, learning and adaptability should be identified during the recruiting process. The assessment process must extend well beyond the experience and success communicated in a resume. Past performance is no guarantee of future success. And your recruit must fit well within the existing team dynamic.
High potential candidates are most likely highly engaged and gainfully employed. Not looking thru job postings/boards.
Building talent-based competitive advantage must start with a commitment to the search process.
I look forward to working with you build your industry-leading sales and marketing team.
Exceptional Talent….. Well Placed

Calgary-based Encana Corporation confirmed this morning that the natural gas leak at the site of the third suspected eco-terrorist bombing in the South Peace was sealed at about 8:30 last night.
In a news release from its Calgary office it also confirmed police reports the leak was discovered by a field worker shortly after noon on October 31st. The explosion occurred at a wellhead located 12 kilometres Northwest of Tomslake or about 14 south of Dawson Creek.
RCMP Sergeant Tim Shields put the time of the explosion at around midnight last Thursday, but he says there were frustrating delays in the public reports of the blast to police. [asset|aid=553|format=mp3player|formatter=asset_bonus|title=075401a265f97ce752dcca235c07321a-Tim Shields_2_Pub.mp3]
It is now generally believed the person or persons responsible for the bombings are from this area and/or have an extensive knowledge of the local oil and gas industry. Once again, security patrols have been increased in the area and the public is again reminded police are taking calls at the toll free tip line: 1-866-7473 or at the CrimeStoppers line:1-800-222-8477.

Rosie left the Relic Pack on Saturday October 12th for a rather long journey back to her other mother Annette. It was a beautiful day for a drive from CT to NJ to deliver Rosie to professional handler Kitty Burke who will be heading south the CDCA National Specialty in Atlanta GA this week. Kitty will deliver Rose to Annette, who will return home to Raleigh NC with Rosie after the specialty is over. We are hoping this early delivery will give Rose and her intended Noah some quality time to get to know each other before an expected December breeding date.
While at the shows I met up with a group of folks interested in meeting more Canaan Dogs. Rose had already been handed off, but her mother Camber and half brother Excalibur did a fine job at providing their own personal Meet the Breeds. I enjoyed the lively dog discussion, which veered into many areas of the dog world.
We all had a very special treat on the way home, stopping at Axle's home for a visit. Axle is one lucky puppy! Well, he is about to have his 3rd birthday, but until the next litter comes along….his litter remains "the puppies". Axle's beautifully fenced in yard is enormous! I hope to have some pics soon to share. Axle, Camber and Calibur raced and played till they dropped! I received wonderfully sloppy nose kisses from Axle's two legged brother Logan who had a ball dumping the dogs water bowl all over himself not once, but twice! And in beautiful Canaan dog fashion, the matriarch Camber, who loves children, took it upon herself to protect little Logan from all, included his beloved Axle. What a beautiful fall afternoon spent with Scott and Joanne. Thanks!

Scheduling a massage therapy appointment on a regular basis with a Registered Massage Therapist has numerous health benefits, both physical and psychological. Some of these benefits include:
-Reducing chronic joint pain
-Increasing mobility to enjoy daily life activities
-Decreasing likelihood of headaches
-Lowering anxiety and depression levels
Chronic pain can have an adverse effect on daily life activities. Individuals who suffer from chronic pain can render them practically disabled. There is no motivation to work or socialize, with all the focus on pain. Such pain can lead to dependence on habituates.
Having increased mobility, especially as we age, allows us to perform our daily activities with much more ease. Being able to bend down to pick up something off the floor, sit at the dinner table are things we take for granted. Regular massage will allow us to continue to sustain our daily life activities.
Headaches can be attributed to a multitude of health issues. One of the main areas of issue with headaches is carrying stress in the neck. Stiffness and tension in the neck are two examples of what can cause constant headaches. Having a Registered Massage Therapist release this tension through a massage with greatly increase an individual's enjoyment of day to day activities.
As researcher's breakdown the barriers of anxiety and depression, they recommend stress relief through a variety of activities. One of the most recommended activities to engage in is massage. A massage from a Registered Massage Therapist can have a relaxing effect by affecting breathing and circulation, lowering anxiety and depression significantly.
When it comes to one's health, they must look out for themselves, and do everything possible to live a healthier, stress-free life. A Registered Massage Therapist can help you achieve these goals.

Former PM takes issue with some tax policies
FORMER Barbados Prime Minister, Owen Arthur has taken issue with some of the tax policies of the Mia Amor Mottley administration. On Monday night at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill, where he delivered a lecture, Arthur said that he does not believe there should be taxes on imports as is the case with the taxes levied on the tourism industry during the Budget presented in June this year.
He said that the Value Added Tax which his previous Barbados Labour Party (BLP) administration had introduced was done so in order to avoid levying taxes on exports and investments. Tourism, a service industry, is the country's main export, and according to him, "the move to have taxes on tourism is the reversal of an important policy."
On the issue of the VAT, Arthur said he does not think that there should be a tax system in Barbados where there are multiple taxes, which appears to be the case at present. He recalled that when the VAT was introduced it replaced about 11 other taxes that made the system much simpler.
Arthur who spoke on the topic The IMF and Caribbean, also argued that growth and development comes through an expansion of existing enterprises and the creation of new ones and for that to happen you have to have high rates of return.
The former MP for St. Peter touched as well on the increase in corporation tax announced in the June Budget as well. He explained that under Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME), entities pay taxes at source. "I brought Corporation taxes from 40 per cent to 25 per cent and lowered to 12 per cent to make Barbados the most competitive economy in CARICOM. I would not agree for it to be carried back up to 30 per cent for no reason," he said. (JB)

Life Lately
It's been back to work this week after a little Easter break to recharge the batteries. I've been taking it a little easier on myself lately, trying to listen to my body telling me what it needs; sometimes that's a marathon of Dinner Date on the couch, other times, it's ticking-off my 'to-do list' like there's no tomorrow. So far, this seems to be working and I'm really pleased with the progress I've made on a few projects.
So, here's what's been getting me through my first week back at work...
With the start of a new financial year, I've been wanting to have a more organised approach to my finances, so over the Easter break I downloaded the Wallet app for my phone and it's really helped to keep track of my day-to-day spending. You can set budgets, shopping lists, record income and it also sends an email summary at the end of the month. I'm still getting used to using it, but once I've established it as a daily habit, I'm going to find something similar for my business accounts.
My skin has been particularly hormonal recently, so discovering that Lisa Eldridge has a video all about the PMS Face has been a life-saver! I'm a big fan of Lisa Eldridge and repeatedly come back to her when researching a make-up look for my latest styling shoot.
After spring-cleaning our kitchen, I've been experimenting with my slow cooker recently. I know I should really be looking at spring salads and seasonal eats, but somehow, it's just not quite warm enough yet in little Lancaster. This slow-cooker curry has fed me over 3 days this week!
Social Media
With all the changes (*fear*) on Instagram lately, I thought I'd try something a little different for April, so this month I've been following Julie Harris's #Instabrandchallege. I'm hoping that this will not only help to shake-up how I use Instagram, but will also perhaps give me some more insights into the Morganna Designs brand and how I can use this more in my online content. So far, it's helped me to use the camera on my phone more and to be more spontaneous with what I shoot. If would be great to have some company on the challenge if you feel like joining me?
Last Sunday, having been hooked by the Night Manager, I gave BBC One's new Drama Undercover a go and I can't say I'm hooked just yet. I'm going to persevere as I like to relax on a Sunday evening before the start of a new week. I've also watched the first episode of Marcella and was much more impressed by this Drama written by Hans Rosenfeldt who also wrote the Danish-Swedish series The Bridge (*one to add to my wishlist*). So that's my Sunday and Monday nights sorted!
A few finds for the week ahead...
- These Greek-style parsnip fries look like a yummy alternative to chips!
- These 10 essential steps for the best pamper night sounds like the perfect plan for a Sunday night!
- The Making Time Capsules course is on my *Wishlist* especially after seeing Laura's beautiful films.
So that's me. How are you getting on? xox

Like iD's But Way More Expensive: Rossion Q1
We got this tip from our buddy Jay and his words were "Like Nike iD's but way more expensive". What he meant was that the Rossion Q1 is a fully customizable made to order car. The paint color and interior trim are customizable and tailored to order. Although the Rossion doesn't come with an engine or drive train they "reccomend" a 3.0 liter twin-turbo V6. The whole concept is pretty fresh although it does remind me a bit of the Noble.

Is your office space dull and dreary? If so, a custom interior wall wrap could be the perfect solution. As well as being incredibly durable and quick to install, wall wraps also apply perfectly on virtually any surface. You don't even need to plaster, seal or render walls beforehand.
Ready to give your office a facelift? Here are four ways you can achieve a total office transformation with interior wall wraps and graphics.
Every visitor, client and employee will pass through your foyer or reception area before entering your office. There's no better place to display your company logo and mission statement to promote and reinforce brand awareness amongst both staff and visitors.
If you're promoting a particular product or service, you could install a promotional wrap in your reception area to ensure maximum exposure and brand awareness amongst visitors.
If your office is in desperate need of an injection of colour, vinyl wall wraps are an excellent option. Best of all, there's no limit to how creative you can get. Whether you want to install a giant puppy mural across one wall in your doggy day care centre or inspire your sales team with inspirational and motivational quotes throughout the office, it's quick and easy when you opt for vinyl wall wraps.
Wall wraps don't just brighten up dull spaces, they can even help to bring your team together and nurture brand identity. A whopping 47% of employees report feeling in tune with their brand through the use of wall graphics.
One of the best things about custom wall wraps is that they allow you to create a totally unique theme and design. Unlike with paint or wallpaper, you aren't limited to a set colour or pattern. YOU create the vision and identity you want.
Why not take advantage of the convenience of this flexibility and use wall wraps to provide your customers and staff with important company information? Key training points and company values can be clearly displayed on your walls for all staff members to see. You could even include a timeline of your company's history and achievements along one wall.
Prefer to think outside the box? Custom wall wraps don't have to be used on your office walls, they can be installed pretty much anywhere in your office. From the desks of your break room to the elevator doors in your lobby, wall wraps look awesome on any surface.

First met Cathy some years ago as a customer to my vineyard. Then we would run into each other at various business network events in Bunbury Region.
A few years ago when we needed to upgrade and improve our website I thought of Cathy, and asked her along with another local web business to provide us with a quote to rebuild, upgrade and improve our website. Cathy won our business as we could see she really listened and understood who we are, and that the website would truly reflect us.
Today we still work with Cathy, she provides an excellent service keeping our site up to date, responding promptly whenever we have issues. Here at Vineyard 28 we are very happy to recommend Cathy, and often do. Cath is a pleasure to work with.

Lingual braces, sometimes referred to as incognito braces, are very similar to traditional metal braces in the sense that they both make use of the wire-and-bracket system. The fundamental difference between the two is that lingual braces are custom-made and attached at the back of the teeth which makes them practically invisible unless you open your mouth widely.
Cost of Lingual Braces
In London, incognito braces may cost between £3,000 and £5,000, which is more expensive than most orthodontic devices because it is a much more difficult procedure to perform. Orthodontists, such as the ones from UltraSmile, need specialised training for this type of treatment, for one. The device is also custom-made just for you so that it will involve more preparatory and laboratory work.
Lingual Braces vs Invisalign Aligners
If you are keen on having invisible braces instead of the traditional metal braces that stick out quite conspicuously, you have two choices: lingual braces or Invisalign aligners. Both are custom-fitted to your teeth for precision. Both make use of the latest computer technologies to come up with a design and treatment plan to manufacture braces that are tailored for you.
Lingual braces are compatible with all age groups and can treat most types of incorrect tooth positioning. Although Invisalign is also consistent with patients of all ages, it may not be as effective in treating dental issues.
Meanwhile, eating can be more challenging with lingual braces because food can get stuck easily. Cleaning them is just as difficult because it is much harder to reach them. You will need to add some more time and effort with brushing and flossing. Invisalign, on the other hand, allows you to eat any food you want without much difficulty because you can remove them while eating. However, if you forget to remove them and you ate or drank food that can discolour teeth, your aligners will be stained.
One more thing, the fact that Invisalign is removable can tempt patients to remove them regularly, which will lessen its effectiveness.
Consult Your Dentist
On your next consultation, you may ask your dentist about invisible braces to let them know you are interested in them. Whether you are a good candidate for lingual braces or Invisalign aligners will be the call of your dentist. After he or she assesses the complexity of your case, you will be on your way to a more even set of teeth.

John Mark
Birthdate July 4, 2014
John's mother was a 13 year old orphan and was raped by her doctor who was supposed to have been treating her at the time. Her story was all over the news at the time. Another doctor who had heard about Sonrise called us and explained the situation. Said that the girl would not be able to give birth naturally and will be given a cesarean section for free. She has come to terms on what has happened to her and considered keeping the baby if it was a girl. When she delivered and found out it was a boy she couldn't take him because he looked like the man who raped her. Baby John Mark is with us at Sonrise now and we are counseling with the mother. We are encouraging her to come and visit her son so that maybe one day she will fall in love with him and be reunited. She has come once since the birth and was handed her son so that she can see how cute, big, and healthy he is getting. Please continue to pray for this young girl who is dealing with so much.

Cardiac CT (computed tomography) for calcium scoring is an exam that uses X-rays and a computer to generate detailed images of the coronary arteries. The images are then analyzed intensively by another sophisticated computer program to detect and quantify evidence of calcium deposits in the arteries.
If no evidence of calcium deposits is found, the test is considered "a negative exam." However, since deposits in the coronary artery may be in the form of soft, noncalcified plaque, the absence of calcified deposits does not rule out coronary artery disease. If calcium deposits are found, a numeric score, which estimates the extent of coronary disease, is assigned. Higher scores indicate an increased risk of heart attack in the coming years.
Cardiac CT for calcium scoring is a fast, painless, noninvasive method of evaluating possible heart attack risk. The exam does not require the injection of contrast material.
The exam is painless, involves no injections and only takes a few minutes to perform.
I've always been impressed how friendly and efficient Larchmont Imaging is!!
Everyone was so caring - only place I go and I always recommend it to others

Evie | Sydney Dog Photography
Meet Evie, the loveable seven year old shar pei mix. She was an absolute delight to photograph and could be quite cheeky. She knows all her manners sit, stay, down and roll over and she performed the first three beautifully for the camera, as well as some cheeky pee-a-boo sessions from behind some plants. However, I just couldn't coax her to roll over for the camera. She was quite adamant about where she drew the line too. As soon as I put my camera down or in my bag she performed her 'roll over' admirably but as soon as I lifted the camera she steadfastly refused to move. No matter what we tried to bribe her with: treats, toys, lots of pats, it was still a 'no' from this little lady. Ah well, next time Miss Evie, next time:) And in the meantime, you can all enjoy the dog photography from her session (minus the roll over).
