Going Big at The Big Event
02.23.2017 | Lisa Densmore Ballard
What makes one racer top the podium again and again — and another accomplished athlete suddenly choke?
I saw it happen firsthand at Big Sky, MT, at the Phillips 66 U.S/ Masters Championships in mid-March. It's the nature of any top-level competition. We all know that winning at a big event takes desire, physical preparation and on-snow training and mental focus. But the strategies throughout this article can help increase the odds of earning a medal.
I am a Masters racer myself. A lot of the events that I reference in this article are Masters races along with Masters athletes. If you are unfamiliar with the format of Masters racing, you can visit their website, here, to become better acquainted.
1. Treat the Big Event like any other race.
Easier said than done. After all, it's the big one, which probably involves more travel, more hype, more competition and more social opportunities. Adding to the challenge is the fact that it might be your first time racing at the host mountain. Despite these factors, if you can keep things "normal," your odds of performing better will be higher.
"I always try to do my best and enjoy the moment no matter which race it is," says Pierre Jeangirard, a well-qualified masters racer. "I like the pressure of big events because of the competition, but it's not different than any other race except that the results are more rewarding."
Rocky Mountain master Lauren Beckos managed to channel the higher energy of Masters Nationals into wins in women's "Class 2" in every event at Big Sky. "I tell myself the same thing in every starting gate — have as much fun as I can,'" she says. "But at Nationals, there's an extra feeling of excitement to leave it all out there. You have to wait a whole year for another shot to race against many of your competitors from other divisions."
2. Ski Smarter.
With more racers on the roster and more depth in the field, many skiers approach every run with an "all or nothing" attitude. But sometimes, an "almost all" strategy is better.
"I always try to do my best because every class competition requires full-on racing," says Nick Hudson of Rocky Mountain, a member of the 2016 Masters National Team who nabbed a bronze in the downhill and GS and silver in the slalom and combined in men's Class 10 at Big Sky. "You need to take risks to be faster than a competitor, but you also need to consider where you stand in the combined. Ski the way you know how. You won't re-invent yourself on race day."
3. Rest Up.
"I get more sleep before I go to a big event," says Hudson. "I don't overdo it after a race, either, if there are more race days. At Big Sky, I wasn't skiing on Lone Peak, though I would have liked to."
Rocky Mountain masters star Jennifer Kaufman says she likes to freeski, but keeps it reasonable. "I get a huge rush from major events, but I also try to make sure I am not wearing myself out," she says. "I may be out freeskiing, but probably not doing nonstop mogul runs. If I am feeling a bit tired, I'll spin or do a light run to get my legs going."
4. Loosen Up and Stay Hydrated.
To stay sharp and energized at a Big Event, Beckos brings plenty of water and food. Far West racer Linda Crowell finds a gym for light workouts and stretches a lot. And Karen Kilian, a member of the 2016 Masters National Team from the Pacific Northwest, rides a stationary bike or jogs.
"I learned at a race camp that after a day of racing, it's good to do something active for 20 minutes," says Kilian. "It helps get rid of lactic acid in the muscles. I also drink plenty of fluids. Altitude, dry air and working hard on the hill can lead to dehydration, which will affect your ability to ski well."
5. Focus mentally.
Sure, but how, especially when a big event is usually several days long? For example, the NASTAR Nationals includes a GS and slalom, often with qualifications for the Race of Champions, and then of course, the team races.
"I can't change anything about my skiing technique on race day," says Kaufman, who skipped the Masters Nationals this year to race another big event: the Criterium in the Czech Republic. "I try not to worry about what I did or didn't do earlier in the season. I'm in the moment and ski hard when the time comes. I take each race one day at a time."
The Masters Nationals at Big Sky was an even longer marathon — three days for the downhill, then three more days for the super G, GS and slalom. Rocky Mountain's Phillips Armstrong, who won gold in the super G and combined plus three silvers in downhill, GS and slalom in men's Class 2, follows a similar strategy to Kaufman. "I try to think about the week in small blocks," he says. "Thinking of all the runs at once puts too much mental pressure on me."
Easterner Pepi Neubauer, who won the downhill, super G and GS in men's Class 10 and who's on track to win the FIS Masters Cup in his age group this winter, definitely finds another gear for Big Events. "I do get myself pumped up," he says. "I put myself in a special frame of mind until the races are over. It helps to stay hydrated, eat good food — carbs and protein — get a good night's sleep and not party too much."
6. Arrive Early.
If it's a place where he hasn't competed before, Neubauer makes a point of arriving at least a day early to check out the race venue. Hudson does, too.
"I get familiar with changing fall lines, terrain, blind spots and snow conditions before the race," says Hudson. "It helps a lot."
"I review the last race email sent out to make sure I didn't miss anything," says Beckos. "I also look to see where the parking and race trail is on the resort's website. I always aim to be there when registration opens or inspection opens on a new hill. The extra time keeps me on schedule and insures a more enjoyable, relaxing day."
"One of my stress points is not being familiar with how to get to the start or the course," says Kaufman. "If I'm not familiar with the mountain, I try to get everything figured out in advance, such as where I am staying and how to get to the course from there, so on race day I can calmly get to the start on time and get myself warmed up and ready to race. I mentally rehearse how my day will go. If I am uncertain about something, I ask about it."
7. Have Fun!
This is my most important factor when it comes to going big at a Big Event. When I'm enjoying myself, I'm more relaxed and feel looser and stronger on my skis.
"Look around at the smiling faces of other racers and feel the energy and support," says Beckos. "We're all there to challenge ourselves and each other."
Her husband, John, who won the slalom and super G in men's Class 2 at Big Sky, is another enjoy-the-moment racer. "For us younger, non-retired racers, win or lose, we have to go to work afterward, so I enjoy the camaraderie," he says. "Not everyone gets to ski race where you can try to go as fast as you can!"
And if you don't ski well, it's not the end of the world. "I'm there to have fun and if I do well, that's great," say Jeangirard. "If I don't, life goes on. I do get disappointed if I make mistakes, but if I ski well and get beat then I have to do better next time."

Totally just moved here and LOVING IT. Welll..this is week three really...but still. It is a huge change from the little nowhere town to this supercity, but I feel more home than ever. The hardest part is being alone for the time being...and no T.V.
But because I don't have the T.V. to preoccupy myself and waste hours maybe I'll get a little more active again.
EEEEEE. This is so much fun~!

text: Having had a bit of a busy schedule this week and feeling so tired last night, I wasn't sure how well my early morning run would go today especially now that I'm well and truly into the longer blocks of running. However, buoyed by some wise words on here and knowing I've put in the work and my fitness MUST be improving,(?) I set out this morning...and it felt GOOD! Also, I ran further in the 25 mins than I did on R1, so I must be getting that little bit faster!!! Yipee! I love C25k and wanted to share that with you!

Dec. 27, 2006: Gun Registry
39th PARLIAMENT, 1st SESSION
Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security
Evidence , June 12, 2006 -- via Punted Posters MINUTES & DEBATE OF BLOC MP MOTION TO RETAIN THE GUN REGISTRY
[....] Mr. Dave MacKenzie (Oxford, CPC):
[....] This was an inquiry of the ministry done October 13, 2004.
[....] It says:Trends in crime statistics can be influenced by many factors including socio-demographic and economic changes, legislative and program changes and changes in police practices. The specific impact of the firearms program or the firearms registry cannot be isolated from that of other factors.
I'll present this to the clerk. That was in bold print from the ministry.
[....] Ms. Kadis mentioned the hits on the system. I've talked to front line police officers, and by and large those hits are automatic links in CPIC queries. You can set up your CPIC system, or your own computer system--some departments do--such that if they run a "10-28", which is a vehicle registration check, when the name of the registered owner comes back, it also queries the firearms registry.
Make no mistake, 6,500 queries a day are not being made to the firearms registry to determine firearms. The vast majority, and I would say to you that almost all of them, are made because they're automatic links into the system.
The fact that you've run a car and found the registered owner's name...and the fact that the individual has firearms in his home means nothing to you. You're not interested in his home. If you ever, for one minute, walked up to a house and wanted to trust that information about whether or not there were firearms in that house, because you'd checked the registry, you'd end up with dead police officers.
They don't trust it, and they can't trust it. That's not because there's something necessarily inherently wrong with it, but you don't know that there are firearms there or not anyway. The individual who is most likely to use a firearm would have the firearm there because they'd stolen it for whatever means.
So the firearms are not going to be registered. It doesn't add to safety--of my son or my son-in-law or my nephew--and for that reason alone, I think we could use those resources in something else.
If you people are intent on supporting this motion, then I say to you, at the same time, it's time we invited people in here from both sides of the spectrum to give us a view of really what the system does or doesn't do. I suggest to you that it does less than you may have been led to believe.
Mr. Laurie Hawn (Edmonton Centre, CPC):
[....] I agree with my colleague that if we are going to do this, then we need to call in a lot more folks to talk about it who have the actual experience. We talk about front line police officers, and I have a bit of a problem with that. I've talked to an awful lot of front line police officers, most recently an assistant commissioner with the RCMP, and I have not talked to a single front line police officer who would rely on this, or has relied on it, to any extent at all. I just have a hard time with people who tell me that's the case, because I know it's not.
In terms of the 6,500-hits-a-day discussion, when you say that it's inappropriate to question that, I'm sorry, it's entirely appropriate to question that. The misinformation that comes out because of that misquoted statistic skews the argument. To say that we have 6,500 hits or queries to the gun registry, and therefore it must be useful--it's just not true. My colleague has explained why that happens. I suggest to you that you know that's true. The experience in the U.K. and Australia, with similar draconian legislation--and they've had it longer than we have--has proven that it doesn't work.
The École Polytechnique was obviously a horrible crime. The gun registry would not have stopped what happened at the École Polytechnique. You cannot stop a madman who is intent on carrying out a crime like that. It would not have had any impact whatsoever.
We talk about the drastic measures that we're being told we're trying to take, but we're not talking about repealing Bill C-17 at all. That's been there for a long time and it's going to stay there. Criminal behaviour hasn't changed. We're not talking about the inanimate object, we're talking about the person. When you talk about equating drugs with guns, drugs are not legal, period. Firearms are legal, with restrictions, which we have in Bill C-17.
The firearms causing most of the damage in Canada are illegal firearms. Obviously criminals don't register their firearms, and we know that. Those guns are not coming, by and large, from peoples' basements, they're coming across the border. That's a fact. Any police association will tell you that. Canada Border Services will tell you that. Nobody is going to deny that women, that Canadians, that everybody needs protection from people who will intentionally cause them damage.
I have another problem with quoting statistics that go back to 1995 when the long gun registry didn't even come into effect until 1998. Reductions from between 1995 and 1998 have nothing to do with the question at hand. My problem with this argument always has been, on any side of an argument, that people use misleading data, misleading statistics, and half-truths to suit their arguments. Everybody on any side of an argument does that, and I'd be the first to acknowledge that.
I'd just like to finish with the suggestion that, if we are going to do this, we do indeed call some witnesses, including--no kidding--front line police officers, not chiefs of police associations. I don't know why some of them have done the politically expedient thing that they have done, but I can tell you that up to and including assistant commissioners of the RCMP, they're not buying this. Frankly, I don't buy it either. [....]
Think what a couple of billion dollars would buy.

Do This Again And Again
by Steve
Memo to Harry Reid and Dick Durbin: Stage one of these back-and-forth's on the Senate floor every day between now and the end of next week, using a different Senator interacting with one of you, preferably a Senator up for re-election this year. It's free media that the nightly news can steal as a packaged story with video, thus playing into their "cheap is better" approach to storytelling. Hammer four or five main themes and issues so that a narrative can settle in, and work in a little humor. Frist would have no way to stop it, since Senators have a right to floor time.

"There are a lion and a tiger in the storeroom, so do you want me to call them out?"
"There is a lion behind the curtain so do you want me to call him out?"
"There are a lion and a tiger behind the curtain so do you want me to call him out?"
"If you make noise again, I'll just call the lion/the tiger out to bite you."
"If you don't look at the cards, then I'll just bring you out. Do you want it?"
LOL! Those are what I have been telling the kids recently. I have no any other way to make them shut their mouth up. Hence, this is what I used to do.
For Aaron, a 3-year-old little boy, he will shake his head with a big, cute smile. His chubby face makes me melt. I will pinch his chubby cheeks and then I will stand up and pretend that I'm going to bring the lion/the tiger out. He will quickly run to me and please me not to bring the lion/the tiger out. Hahaha! That's fun indeed.
For Eve, a 4-year-old little girl, she doesn't really afraid of what I say. Every time when I stand up, she will just follow me and she will step into the storeroom without looking if there is a lion or a tiger in it. The only thing I can do is to tell her that the lion/the tiger is in a box. Gahhh! She is too brave!
These are the funniest kids that had been fooled by me. Haha! Anyway, I will look for another chance to joke with the others by using the same way. Let's wait and see if I can do it. XD
Good night!

Ford recently unveiled its C-MAX Solar Energi car, with a first-of-its-kind solar roof. This is an advantage to consumers to have a hybrid car that doesn't need to plug-in to recharge.
The C-MAX Energi car is powered through a Fresnel lens, which uses the sun to recharge its batteries. The Fresnel lens concentrates the sun's power and tracks its movements throughout the day, which will take it about a day to fully charge.
Ford says that this car can be fueled for approximately 75% of a trip made by the average driver. The C-Max uses an estimated 108 miles per gallon for city driving. To put this into perspective, according to Ford, if every car had this solar panel-covered canopy, we could reduce emissions by about 1 billion metric tons.

Dresden in Chatham-Kent County, Ontario — Central Canada
Spirituality and Community
Spiritualité et Communauté
Built around 1850, this modest rural church was moved from Mersea Township to this site in the 1960s and is representative of the churches in which Reverend Henson preached while living at Dawn.
Reverend Josiah Henson was most closely associated with the Dawn settlement's British Methodist Episcopal (B.M.E.) Church in which he preached many of his sermons. That church was demolished in the 1940s due to safety concerns, although the organ was saved and is displayed inside this church.
The local church was one of the Black community's most important institutions and served as a place of worship and a centre for meetings, educational purposes, recreational and social activities. Reverend Henson, along with other ministers and the church community, played an important role in preserving Black culture.
Construite aux alentours de 1850, cette modeste église rurale, qui se trouvait auparavant dans le canton de Mersa, a été transférée sur ce site dans les années 1960. Elle est représentative des églises dans lesquelles le révérend Henson prêchait lorsqu'il vivait a Dawn.
Le révérend Josiah Henson a surtout été associé à l'église épiscopale méthodiste britannique (B.M.E.) de l'établissement de Dawn dans laquelle il a prêché bon nombre de ses sermons. Cette église
L'église locale était une des institutions les plus importantes de la communauté noire et servait de lieu de culte et de centre de réunions et d'activités éducatives, récréatives et socials. Le révérend Henson, de mêne que d'autres prêtres et la communauté religieuse, contribuèrent de façon notable à préserver la culture noire.

There have been a lot of theories about why the Pistons have faltered this season. General manager Joe Dumars and coach Terry Mills have tried everything, from trading Chauncey Billups for Allen Iverson to benching Richard Hamilton to starting super-sub Antonio McDyess.
None of it has worked as Detroit (20-32 ATS, 27-25 overall) limps into Thursday having lost four straight contests and nine of 11 home games.
On Tuesday, the Bucks were without three starters but the Pistons barely showed up and were down by nine less than six minutes into the game and down 12 points by the end of the first quarter. New point guard Rodney Stuckey continued his recent funk. He had more fouls (six) than combined points (three) and assists (one) in 31 minutes.
There are really two possible explanations for Detroit's nosedive this season. One, Rasheed Wallace doesn't care anymore. Two, Rasheed Wallace isn't very good anymore. Worse for the Pistons, they could both be true.
Wallace missed all five three-pointers he chucked up against Milwaukee and his statistics are down across the board. He barely checks in defensively and he looks slow. Of course, he is 34 years old and has played heavy minutes, first when McDyess was gone and then when the Pistons went to the smaller lineup.
Factor in an injured right foot and Curry's reducing Wallace's playing time to facilitate some fresher legs and spirit. And Thursday, there is always the presence of Tim Duncan, which seems to get Wallace fired up. He scored 19 points in an 89-77 Pistons' win at San Antonio in early December.
Detroit is telling itself that tonight's is a big game.
"We need to beat quality teams," Iverson told reporters. "We need that challenge. We need somebody that's going to come in here and want to kick our butts all over the basketball court, just to see how we respond."
There is no help on the way, as the Pistons will not make a notable trade before the deadline. With Oklahoma City's trade for Tyson Chandler (once rumored to be swapped for Wallace), the Pistons could have more salary-cap space than any other team this offseason. It's ranging anywhere from $20 to $25 million, once the expiring contracts of Iverson and Wallace come off the books.
On Tuesday, Detroit tried a new lineup that includes McDyess at power forward. The losing streak plus Amir Johnson's ineffective play convinced Curry to put his best rebounder in the lineup.
"We'd love to have him off the bench," Curry said to the media. "He's been one of the most productive bigs off the bench in the league this year. Unfortunately, Amir has struggled against starters."
The lineup against Milwaukee was the 11th that Curry has used this season.
"When you win, you can stay with the same lineup," Curry told the press. "We have a team coming in here Thursday (San Antonio) that's been one of the best, just like us, over the last eight years and they've changed their lineup a ton of times. The only difference right now is they're playing better basketball and have won more games."
Bye bye Hornets
Thanks to bad decisions to give full mid-level contracts on Mo Peterson and James Posey, New Orleans was going to be several million dollars over the luxury tax next season if it didn't dump a large contract.
So, they had to dump Tyson Chandler to Oklahoma City for Joe Smith and Chris Wilcox. Chandler was having a horrible season and Smith and Wilcox help the Hornets' depth issues. But Chandler's defensive presence will be missed and New Orleans seems destined for an early exit in the playoffs.
Maggette a factor
Clippers fans will be shocked to hear that Corey Maggette has been happy and effective coming off the bench for the Warriors, who are 4-0-2 against the spread their last six games. Maggette sulked when Los Angeles tried to bring him off the bench last season.
"The situation was totally different," Maggette told reporters. "The approach was... I was injured. And I talked to (Clippers coach Mike) Dunleavy a little bit and it was 'I want to get you back in, blah, blah, blah.' Then, after that, he kept me on the bench. Never had anything to say about it."
The lack of heavy minutes always helps Maggette's nagging hamstring injuries.

girl you are so adorable! I'm glad I found your blog (although you are changing it soon?). I cant believe that blazer is from Old Navy, I haven't been there in ages, but I guess they have some cute stuff.ReplyDelete
I'm in love with your style though, and how you look at old family pictures for "fashion inspiration". I read some of your features and I love that you volunteer at the Museum of Natural History, I am in looove with museums. We don't have that many museums in Kansas, but you bet I have a yearly membership at most of them haha.
I haven't been to NYC in almost a year and a half now so I'm glad I can come to your blog to live vicariously through you!
great pictures ~ Sunsets are just so gorgeous <3ReplyDelete

wow, beautiful girls!ReplyDelete
Amazing photos! I get chills when looking at arty photos like these of New York people - sometimes I forget that people actually live there and it's not just a city from stories and films. It's the real people I'm actually interested in - which one is you? :) Every single girl in these photos is drop dead gorgeous, and the city makes for an incredible atmosphere. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete

Looks like a really fun shoot! I love the city lights and the blazer!ReplyDelete

These photos have a unique composition, and it's definitely a plus that they're taken on top of a building overlooking a famous city. They have that certain charm to them that makes each photo unique. The photo of the sunset is particularly breathtaking!ReplyDelete

The Walking Dead was presumed dead, but fittingly it has risen from its own grave to deliver the best episode of the season so far, leaving us very hopeful for the memorable finale that Clementine deserves.

The Council began the year as one of the most exciting new narrative adventure games of the generation, but it will end it as an uneven plot that stumbles to the finish line. The finale is the season's worst episode.

Dynasty mode has come to the MFL, and although the idea behind this deep mode is exciting, the way it's implemented is severely hampered by bad menus, too high a budget, and other things that prevent regular fun.

Strange Brigade has received a few free updates and some new playable characters, but now the first major content drop has arrived in the form of Isle of the Dead. Sadly, it takes no risks whatsoever and will feel too familiar.

The Walking Dead: The Final Season seems likely to end on this up and down finale which does well to recap the Telltale saga since their surge in 2012. It's decent and nothing more, and stings quite a lot as an incidental finale.

The Council has been one of the coolest surprises of the year, refreshing the episodic adventure game subgenre with new and interesting systems. Sadly, it finds a low point with its penultimate episode.
Posted 4 months ago by Mark Delaney, 6 comments
The Council proved to be more than a one-episode wonder in its previous episode. This time, it's proven it can even avoid the common middle episode slump seen by so many similar games. It's time to start trusting this series.

For fans of Prey, the idea of a roguelite DLC might have filled them with trepidation, but "Mooncrash" is an experience that shouldn't be missed.

The Council premiere episode was a long overdue reinvigoration of the narrative adventure genre. Could it follow that up with another impressive episode? The short answer is yes. This series will not be a one-hit wonder.

text: Report post Posted March 13, 2015 Quick Background: My guild fell apart 2 weeks ago and as such I am looking for a new preminent home as well as switching roles.Since MT roles are few and far etween I am transitioning to DPs with Tank OS. Last night was my first night testing out Necroblight (using the WA "addon" and rotation posted here on IV), and I was very happy with it. But, I feel my DPS is still very low (AMR infographic rates me as doing 23% of the DPS for my gear and I find that unacceptable).

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011 – The Toronto Fashion Incubator held a small presentation open to TFI members. The night turned out to be highly informative and well worth the $35 (almost double for non-members) to attend. Being the high school-er I am, I'm not afraid to admit some of the economical talk, and superior lingo went right over my head. So here I have compiled my notes from the evening into a non-PHD holder friendly format.
About WSGN
Simply put, WSGN is a trend forecasting company; an insanely huge international forecasting company that has helped the names like Target, Nickelodeon, Guess, Adidas, Sony, etc. They look high and low in every hidden corner of the world; observe social behaviours, and study the economy, culture, and so much more, all to bring you trends in a wide in fields that cover design and style. Now without the fancy words: Companies subscribe to their trend reports (for a rather large, but necessary fee) to stay above the competition.
The top 3 trends for 2012/2013
1. Hyper-Culture […Sci-fi collaborations of every culture imaginable…]
- Think Gaga in Asia wearing an African kimono. This hyper-culture trend is all about cultural collaboration. The colours we'll be seeing are pastels on acid. The hue is just slightly different in a more intense way than the pastels we saw this past winter. Also, fashion is truly becoming a statement. The general public will begin to care about the message they send with their clothes. One idea discussed is having two different style shoes (one plain, one with embellishments), to say you are putting your best foot forward. Punny. Shape-wise we're looking at drapery, and wrapping with a sci-fi feel, meaning we will also have sharp edges and strong clothing structure. Remember that paint splatter trend? Where we threw paint all over our jeans (think Mean Girls 2). Well, prepare your spray paint bottles for the new graffiti inspiration.2. Radical Neutrals […Quiet designs that speak volumes…]
- Moving far away from anything "hyper" we're quieting down to hear the loud whispers of radical neutrals. Simple will take center stage, and speak volumes by doing so. One of the biggest trends coming in is that of gender neutrality. We've slowly been seeing it in Japan. It goes without saying that the colours will be muted and faded (barely-there shades). When I first heard about the trend immediately thought of the minimalistic trend that I not exactly new, but now I understand Radical Neutral to be more of silent protest against the cluttered, unjust world.
3. Eco-Hedonism […Environmentally responsible extreme-luxury…]
- Scientists are the new celebrities. We're no longer looking at science as something to discover, but something to change and alter. Why? For survival? For aesthetics? Or possibly just because we're just discovering that we can. We're all about nature and science becoming one changeable and ultimate force. Food is included in this. Think of a micro-photo of the genetic build-up of a tomato, enlarged, printed, and sent out on a dress. Back in 2009 Lady Gaga emerged on stage wearing a rock formation inspired dress, thus begging geological formations into fashion muses. Continuing with this into 2012/13 we're seeing the underbelly and forgotten sides of nature; fungi. The undersides of mushrooms, and moss, and all sorts of other things I wouldn't want to be touching in a forest, but as an embellishment on a sleeve I'm all for it. Moving on, fur is out. Fur coats peaked with Marilyn Monroe, and should have died long before Snoop Dog got his hands on one. Now we're looking at feathers as more than an embellishment, but as a texture (think of fish scales).

Despite all the time you've spent in the gym all you've got is one pack? Well, meet this little boy who has some fine six packs…and he is just three.
His mum Ursula told Daily Mail Australia:
"I first noticed Dash had the beginnings of a six pack about six months ago when I was changing his nappy. He curled his feet up towards the sky and I saw it and sent a picture to his dad saying "do you see what I see?" He's too young to realise he has it of course, but he's already incredibly muscly and just loves to exercise."
On where his love for exercising emanated, she said:
"I'm reasonably fit, as is his dad, but Dash's love of exercise really came from his love of the outdoors. He's outside every day, come rain or shine. I used to run with him in the pram when he was a baby, and as soon as he hit two, I took him out on what I thought would be a gentle jog, Dash ended up running four kilometres!'
Dash's favourite exercise is jumping. Ursula takes him to an indoor trampolining centre as often as possible, where he will bounce for more than two hours at a time.
'For his second birthday we built Dash an outdoor activity centre complete with trapezes and places to swing and hang from. He just loves it.

Since today is Thursday I thought I would throw it back to my high school days when I took a class called speech and creative writing. This was a poem at the time related to my life a lot.
So a blast from the past;
To write love on her arm
A poem by yours truly.
To write love on her arms;
I write love on her arm to show her that love is in the air.
I look at her scars and tell her she's beautiful and never want to leave her.
I look at her and think "god, you're the most beautiful girl in the world to think that I have the best gift and it's her. It's always gonna be her".
I look at her and tell her she's beautiful in hopes that one day she will look at her scars and think the same thing too. In hopes that maybe one day she'll realize that life is worth living and that todays the day.
Today's the day I tell her I love her more than life. I can't live without her. I can't possible do anything without her.
Today's the day I think to myself that life is worth living.
That the reason I'm here is for you. To help you get by. To help you learn that love is in the air.
That we can walk together on this road hand in hand. The path is long but our legs are strong.
Together we can fight anything.
Today I look at her scars and tell her she's beautiful.
Today she looks back at me and tells me she is.

He is called on to guide an Israeli couple (Anna Khaja and Anthony Batarse), and a Palestinian (Oren Dayan), who go through admissions together because they have suffered similar tragic endings. As the details of their deaths and how their fates are intertwined become clear, the clerk attempts to teach them the wisdom required to find everlasting peace.

Well, it seems like Mixology Monday is the only thing that can get my lazy hands to write an article in these days! I have to admit that, taken by the creation of a new menu at work, plus the winter chills and an important upcoming competition, I haven't written anything since last MxMo. And that is not acceptable. So, with spring on its way I decided to dedicate more time to this slow-paced blog. I have a couple of posts lined up, including the drink I will present at Bols Around The World and an all new veggie drink program. Stay tuned (I always wanted to say that).
Enough with promises that I probably won't fulfill, it is now time to talk about the new MxMo theme; first of all let me say just how much I respect this month host: Putney Farm. This is an example of a great blog with captivating posts, arguably the best drink pics on the web, and always something clever to say. What a productive family!
This month theme is "inverted", and I must confess that it took me more than a week to come up with a decent recipe. The theme is great,there are just way too many options. If you can take a moment to look up this announcement post, Stewart will explain everything there is to know about this month challenge.
So, here's what I came up with.
The 35th minute
1.5 oz Saint James Rhum Agricole Imperial Blanc
0.25 oz Curacao
0.75 oz Dindarello Maculan*
0.25 oz fresh lime juice
0.25 vanilla and orange oleo saccharum**
1 lemon peel
Mezcal as needed
Fresh thyme, lemon, lime and orange zests.
Muddle the lemon with the oleo saccharum and the lime juice. Add ice and all the other ingredients and stir for quite a while. Double strain over ice, in a chilled rock glass previously washed with Mezcal. Garnish with pressed fresh thyme sprigs and a knot of citrus zests.
For this month I decided to pay a little tribute to the Superbowl, and more precisely to the black-out occurred in the Dome. The 35th minute is when the teams went back to action, and when all of a sudden San Francisco regained momentum (they lost in the end but it was a much better team after the black out).
However, this drink is not to be intended as inverted this way. What I wanted to create was a typical east coast drink, mixed up in a west coast manner. West coast bartenders tends to prefer classic drinks, whereas west coasts ones generally use fresh markets ingredients. I started from the quintessential "brown, bitter and stirred" cocktail, the "Old Fashioned", to arrive at a much fresher version of it, using fresh ingredients and spirits often found in Californian craft bars. This article here, although a bit dated, sums up pretty good the main difference in thinking cocktails between east and west coast.
The drink is definitely fresh, with some interesting fruit notes coming from the young rum agricole and the Italian dessert wine (Dindarello) . There is a very pleasant vanilla and citrus feel that persists after the sip, whereas the aroma is dominated by the smokiness of thyme and mezcal. As far as Old Fashioned go, definitely a more summery version, to be enjoyed outside on a patio, while sunbathing.
Once again thanks to the guys at Putney Farm for hosting this month, looking forward to next month!
* Any fairly oaked white dessert wine will do I suppose.
** Oleo Saccharum is a hell of a way to give subtle flavors to your drinks. It is a bit time consuming but absolutely effective. I have been playing around with it for a couple of months and to retrieve some info i ran into some good posts about it. If you need a lot of it you should check this out, instead this is a good example of a more complex one. For my vanilla and orange oleo I usedthe zest from 4 oranges and 1.5 oz of vanilla flavored confectioners sugar.

I was sitting in my house, with the windows open, enjoying the nice weather and a good book when I heard a squawk. Well, it wasn't really a squawk. But it was something. And I thought, "That is a funny sounding bird."
Then, I heard it again. And again. And again and again and again. With only a couple seconds in between each squawk.
At this point, I was pretty sure it wasn't a bird. In fact, I thought it might be a cat. I have seen a couple cats hanging around my house, or bolting from under my front steps when I'm walking up them and successfully scaring the pee out of me. So I thought maybe the squawking was actually meowing. As I stood up to go investigate, the thought of a sad and forlorn cat standing outside my house mewling made me think that I would soon have a new family member.
But as I stepped outside, I saw what the cause of the noise was. A squirrel, in a branch about 25 feet up, sprawled out on its stomach. And squawking. I squinted up, trying to see what was going on, wondering if I'd have a dead squirrel in my lawn in a while. But it was hard to see what was going on. And since I don't have binoculars, I went in and grabbed my camera and used the zoom to try and see what was going on. But that didn't reveal much either.
During this whole process, the squirrel stayed in the same spot, and kept squawking. I thought maybe if I got closer, I could get a better look. So I moved a few steps closer and the squirrel stopped squawking. I moved a few steps closer and suddenly, the squirrel jumped to its feet and turned to face me. I took a few steps back, and the squirrel scurried a foot or so down the branch, but then turned and looked at me again.
Now, at this point, I was having visions of the squirrel launching itself from the branch and attaching itself to my face, at which point I'd start screaming and writhing in pain something along these lines.
So I backed up a couple feet closer to the house as the squirrel scurried across the branch, over to another tree, down the trunk and across the yard.
I'm not really sure what was going on. But the more I think about it, I'm wondering if it's a plot. Maybe the squirrels have teamed up with raccoons and/or bats and they are out to get me. I mean, the bats HAVE taken residence in the bell tower of church right across the street.
And here I always thought squirrels were my friends.

Hi everyone,
Yesterday I showed you Max Caviar Nails in black. Today I have the multi coloured seed beads for you.
The box contains the same black base and clear top coat as the black Caviar nails. The beads vary in colour from blue, green, red, yellow, pink, gray, orange and white. The also have different sizes.
I apologise for my dehydrated hands and cuticles. I blame the warm weather.
I like both the black and muli coloured ones. The muli coloured ones are easier to see, but the black ones also have a certain appeal.
You can simply remove these beads with regular nail polish remover. I didn't put the clear topcoat over the beads though, thinking it would ruin the look and feel. You can even recycle these beads. You remove them from your fingers and put them in a small cup (or something alike) and pour some more nail polish remover (you can use acetone, but that's not really neccessary) on top. Then you rub the remaining polish off with a cloth. And they're as good as new.

I really like this! But I wondered if the beads stay long enough? Because when I first saw this set, I feared that they may come off, which would be a shame!ReplyDelete
It depends on how much you use your hands. If you don't do much else besides typing you're good for at least a day. I haven't tried sleeping with this mani, but I believe you might lose some beads thanks to friction with your pillow or something. I wouldn't recommend wearing this when working in the garden, I'm pretty sure you'll lose the beads ;-). This is a good mani to go out, I think. After one evening of fun, I believe you can recycle most of your beads.ReplyDelete

This week I've been in full TV prep mode as we launch into filming series six of Chatty Lasses.
It's always a hectic time preparing for any chat-based show, but filming 12 episodes so closely together always brings that feeling of excitement.
Although there is lots of planning to do, I love it as it involves a lot of research into new and exciting topics that will be discussed on the show and used in interviews with guests. So this week I've been researching statistics on body image and self-confidence, an increasingly hot topic in the media.
While searching for some stats to use on the show, I was blown away by some of the studies and research outcomes I came across.
I knew that body confidence stats weren't going to be good, after all we live in a world where heavily filtered selfies have become the norm and the media has piled on the pressure to be a certain weight and size.
Even with all of that firmly in my mind, I wasn't prepared for some of the crazy stats that I uncovered.
One online poll revealed that 91% of women are unhappy with their bodies and 80% off them feel insecure because of images they see in the media.
But it's not just women who are having a hard time with their body image as I then went on to read that 25% of teenage boys have been teased about their weight!
When I finished my research I was left feeling shocked and, if I'm honest, really quite upset.
When on earth did it become OK to poke fun at someone because of how they look? It is quite simply unacceptable, and those dishing out such remarks should think at length about how they would feel if the shoe was on the other foot.
It's all too easy to assume that because someone is overweight, for example, that they must be lazy or greedy.
Now don't get me wrong, this may be the reason why some people have become out of shape and unhealthy, but for the vast majority there are a whole host of underlying factors … so it's time to stop being so judgmental, and that goes for those comparing the fluctuating weights of celebrities in magazines to those simply passing comments about people in the street.
I was always brought up to believe that you should never judge a book by it's cover, and you should treat people how you wish to be treated … when did so many people forget this and lose the ability to be kind?
The reason that so many people feel unhappy with themselves and their appearance is because of what they see in the media (as the above statistics suggest) and while we can't control what is printed and posted by big organisations, there are things that we can do to boost our own body confidence and that of others too.
First up, give yourself and others compliments. Let's build each other up rather than tear each other down, and that includes the mental conversations we have with ourselves too.
Rather than looking in the mirror and having negative thoughts about ourselves, instead swap them for positive ones.
Social media also has a lot to answer for, but we don't help ourselves by heavily filtering photographs and taking and deleting ten photographs of ourselves before choosing the one we wish to share on our Facebook or Instagram.
How about just taking a photograph, stop over analysing it and just share it. Be yourself and be proud of who you are and what you look like.
If we don't make an effort to change these behaviours now, goodness knows how all of this will effect our kids when they are older!

Keyword AdvertisingOverture (now part of Yahoo) was the first company to let advertisers bid to place their ads alongside search engine search results. Someone searches for "trampolines", and your ad for trampolines shows up above the first search results, for a fee. If someone clicks on your ad and visits your site, you are charged an advertising fee. You only pay when someone clicks on the ad and visits your webpage. This is called keyword advertising and is also known as CPC or PPC (Cost Per Click or Pay Per Click). The names mean what they say -- you pay when someone clicks on your ad, their is a cost for each click and visitor you receive. Initially, these ads only appeared on the big search engines, usually above search results (highlighted in a different color or something to denote them as paid listings or advertisements) or off to the right side of the screen. Google initially had no advertising on their site, but were lured by the big money available once their traffic grew and grew and they became the biggest search engine. They refined Overtures model and created the AdWords program, whereby advertisers could bid on keywords and phrases and have their ads show up alongside search results for those words and phrases. This worked well, allowing Google to show relevant ads to their tens of millions of daily visitors, bringing in billions of dollars in revenue over the years.
Google expanded the AdWords program to include other sites besides their own. Sure, they might dish up 100 million searches each day, but those searchers then left Google after clicking on some other site and then clicked through hundreds of millions of more pages. What if Google could also display ads on a bunch of other sites and domains? This led to the creation of the Google AdSense program, which basically expands AdWords to a whole network of partner sites who choose to sign up with Google and put the ad code on their pages. Google's trick to making a lot of money is to analyze the text and content of any given page, and then to selectively match the best advertisers from their millions of ad partners and display their relevant ads on that page. So a page about barbecues has ads about barbecues on it. With AdSense, Google hugely expands their reach to millions and millions of sites, instead of just Google.com.

Everything about Big Data Management
Big data are simply data sets that are so large that they're very hard to process with traditional database management tools.

And now, something different is padding its soft feet across my Persian rugs to take its place on centre stage. A poem. A beautiful and disturbing poem that twists and turns.
These Cold Bones is written by our very first Femme Fatale in the 2012 showcase, Anna Harris. With these deft and chilling words Anna proves her versatility as author and poet. Please enjoy...
wearing skinless bones
the very ones
with which I hugged you
- the ones that stifled moans
Cosseted you,
pronounced you mine
when I was warm
and when I warmed you, too
- when we were fine
I used to radiate
some said, with love of life
a life of love
the love of you
- the perfect wife
Arsenic, a slab of marble
and cold hard clay
divides our bond
six feet apart
- by night, by day
Me down, you up
too far to touch
each alone
in solitary chill
- no fleshy warmth to clutch
Your poison seeped
in through my mouth, my skin
my blood, this casket
and now it feeds the earth
- that I'm encased within
You're frozen to your spineless soul
a foreign chill to mine; worlds apart
But I'll feast, take my revenge
when you take sleep
- my succour, your sucking callous heart

Vinyl has come back in a big way. If bands started producing short runs of numbered cassette tapes, would you buy them?
I would
because I still listen to tapes in my old, old car. I don't think many people would though, as the sound quality is undeniably poor.
I love cassetes!
they're really bloody cheap, but you can get get great sounding cassette tapes now. they do degrade quite quickly though which is a downer.just wondering, we might do a short run of say 100 to try it out
I reckon it's worth a try
They do have a certain charm to them.
Plus there were all those cassette-only labels back in the early 80s, so maybe you could make references to that.
cassettes don't really have the charm
or sound quality or any of the things vinyl has which has made it come back.
Generally, a bit of a pain in the arse. I'm trying to either replace all of mine, or rip them.
One great thing about them 'back in the day' was that you'd actually listen to albums all the way through and wouldn't skip tracks for fear of a) caning the battery in your walkman or b) missing the start of the next track.
I'd still buy them though, yeah. If I liked the music and it was the only way to own it.
bands do
goodbooks did didnt they?
cheers for the opinions. seems like it's maybe worth a try but only ever as a short run. the benefit being that it still has a novelty factor and is so damn cheap. vinyl is still pretty expensive to have pressed but maybe that'll come down with more bands doing it now
Vinyl never went away
Are cassettes cheaper than CDrs?
Can't say that
cassettes have ever really appealed to me. I've been gutted too many times when cherished recordings have been lost because they're too unreliable.
I have some promotional cassettes
that the Futureheads sent out before their first album was released.
cassetes had their time
but we might as well get all dewy eyed about wax cylinders.
good link above. enjoy it i did
Cat & Girl always speak the truth.
However http://www.undereducated.com/ are putting out a series of split cassetes that seem doing well.
I personally wouldn't by them, rubbish sound quality without the aesthetic qualities of vinyl. Plus if you're self releasing CDrs you can make some pretty lovely artwork for them.
i'll check that out. i just wondered really whether it'd be worth doing mainly for a novelty factor. a short run. bands are always looking for other bits and bobs for their merch. we're trying to do a little comic or paper too but i don't really think it'd end up working. anyone know any places tha do cheaper vinyl pressing services? the ones i've checked otu so far, it seems to cost bout 700-800 for a pressing of 500

srigurubhyO namahA
The 107th mantrA speaks of the similarity among the trinity and their benevolence in terms of being protective of their devotees.
பயன் அறிந்து அவ்வழி எண்ணும் அளவில்
அயனொடு மால்நமககு அன்னியம் இல்லை
நயனங்கள் மூன்றுடை நந்தி தமராம்
வயனம் பெறுவீர் அவ் வானவ ராலே. 5.9.107.
Trinity Are Kin
But if we thus the soul of truth probe and bare,
Aya nor Mal to us no alien Beings are
But Indissolubly Kin to Nandi, the Three Eyed
Blessed be ye all by the Heavenly Three. 5.9.107.
Com - But if we thus the soul of truth probe and bare, If we evaluate (the trinity) using the yard stick/ measure of the merit earned by the jIvAs (through these deities) Aya nor Mal to us no alien Beings are braHmA or Vishnu are not of a different nature to siva. But Indissolubly Kin to Nandi, the Three Eyed They (the trinity) are ever engaged in their respective duties (viz. creation & c) as divinely willed by lord of the Three Eyes, siva. Blessed be ye all by the Heavenly Three Hence, O people of the world, attain to greater states through the worship and subsequent grace of the holy trinity – the three fold aspects of siva : braHmA, Vishnu and rudrA.
* This mantrA clarifies the position of the sage, just in case the ignorant reader assume that the sage is biased and partisan when it comes to the celestial hierarchy! To first set forth the differences in the states indicated by the names braHmA & c when compared with the supreme siva, the sage spoke of the limitedness of the glories of the trinity. But here to stop the reader from getting any wrong notions, he uses a different measure (in the place of glories).
The limitations of the trinity notwithstanding, when it comes to the granting of merit and spiritual upliftment, the trinity are definitely capable of delivering. In this aspect, that of benevolence and spiritual merit, they are non-different to siva. This is because they are manifestations of the same supreme principle and are ever engaged in their duties as assigned by siva.
With this mantra the sage confirms that there is nothing wrong with the position of those mathAs or schools of thought which hold one among the trinity to be the highest. This is because the worship of the trinity is also quite capable of producing the spiritual and material advancement of the devotee. Hence their non-difference.

How can 2 minutes a day for 10 days change your relationship with that one somewhat challenging student…Here's how.
We've all had them – students who test our patience, coming to class every day with the intent to challenge us by disrupting the class or asking questions unrelated to the lesson. Some teachers ignore them, give up on them, and have learned to zone them out completely.
I, on the other hand, accept their challenge. In my years of teaching, I have discovered that the kids who intentionally disrupt and try to rattle the class are the ones who are seeking the most attention and more often than not, for understandable reasons. When you think about it, why do kids act out in and out of the classroom? They are demanding attention because they aren't getting it where they yearn for it most – at home.
Authors Dr. Allen Mendler and Angela Watson suggest a concept called the 2 X 10 Strategy.
The concept upon which the 2×10 Strategy is based, is simple: spend two minutes a day with your student for ten days straight talking about anything they want. There is likely to be hesitation in the beginning but you can work through that as the days pass. The strategy aims to unravel the root of the behavior but more importantly, establish a connection between student and teacher.
I have recommended it to several teachers who were struggling to building positive interactions in their classes. As a teacher, it isn't difficult to recognize which kids require intervention. For me, it was a student who looked for every opportunity to disrupt the class with jokes, raise their hand enthusiastically when I asked a question, only to ask if they could go to the bathroom. And when I let the disruptive behavior slide, it escalated into eye rolls, deep sighs, disrespectful responses and rudeness towards classmates.
I had a teacher share her amazement with me at just how effective this method was with a student whom she struggled to like. She commented in an email to me:
"Thank you for sharing the 2×10 strategy with me. I was skeptical about whether or not it would work, but decided to try with one of my students who was always trying to do the opposite of what I asked her to do. I discovered she was the oldest of 5 to a working mom who she rarely saw. She was responsible for cooking their meals, and she often got the smallest portions. This made me connect with her and see her in a new light."
As the days went by she allowed the student to talk about anything she wanted, learning that the student loved crafts and aspired to be a fashion designer.
By the end of the ten days, she'd probably lost count of the days and the minutes. She told me,
"Moving forward, the student approached me every so often to tell me a quick story, and I was happy to listen, no longer timing our 'sessions.' Disruptions in class were limited to the occasional silly jokes but they were never mean-spirited."
Other educators who have implemented the 2×10 Method have also noticed tremendous changes in their students. Many students went from staring vacantly at their teacher to making real eye contact during class. Although they still struggled somewhat with the lessons, they were now much more attentive and exhibited a renewed desire to learn.
The 2X10 Method shouldn't be seen as a trick to get students to behave. It creates an opportunity to make a genuine connection with your students so you can understand why they do what they do and improve your relationship with them. Investing just two minutes a day to get to know your troubled student offers a venue for expressing him or herself. When students see this opportunity, they will often take it. Even the most challenging kids just want to be heard!
If you're having trouble reaching your troubled students, the 2X10 Method will open doors that might otherwise remain closed.
