Sperone Westwater
Author: Anothertravelguide.com0 COMMENTS
The new building of the Sperone Westwater art gallery has become the latest addition to the New York list of culture tourist destinations. While the history of the gallery boasting a collection of artwork by prominent artists of different nationalities and from different countries dates back 35 years, recently it expanded its premises by moving to a building designed by Foster+Partners, the company of the British architect Norman Foster. Located in Bowery (one of the oldest streets in Manhattan), the building is a stone's throw from the New Museum of Contemporary Art designed by SANAA. Unlike the 'white cube' of a traditional art gallery, the architecture is dominated by vertical movement. From the outside, the building is reminiscent of a tall eight-storey glass shoe box; eyes are drawn towards the giant red lift perpetually travelling between the second and fourth floors. It is actually a moving exhibition space which offers the visitors an unusual vantage point - an opportunity to view the exhibited works of art while travelling up and down. The new gallery opened with a solo show by the Argentine artist Guillermo Kuitca.

Wall Art Interior Design Tips from Matthew's Art Gallery
Your home is a hideaway from the world and somewhere that's a reflection of your own unique tastes and style. And one way to reveal your innermost desires and fancies is to display wall art – tell the world (or at least your visitors) who you really are!
Of course hanging art on your wall also has the added advantage of hiding a cold, bare wall and providing a bit of interest in a room which may previously have been lacking in character.
When it comes down to it though, wall art suits any room in the home – even the bathroom provided you treat the art properly to prevent steam damage.
Create a particular mood with wall art
Yes, wall art really does have the ability to change your emotions. It can brighten up a dull, texture-less room for instance, or even instil a sense of peacefulness in a cluttered, messy hangout. Metal art (a form of aluminium alloy) can actually add real lightness and physical warmth to a room when the sun reflects on its surface.
Create a focal point
Art on a wall doesn't only take away from other parts of a room you'd rather hide; it also provides a conversation focal point. That's because the painting or metal work will draw the eye of whoever enters the room, becoming a natural source of small talk (which works particularly well in an office if you're meeting colleagues for the first time).
So what type of art works well on walls?
Personally we're fond of oil paintings, but we're also partial to metal art which has been making a bit of a re-surgence in recent years (it was extremely popular in the 60s and 70s and is certainly becoming so again thanks to the popularity of 50s/60s-based shows such as Mad Men).
Hanging art work on display means you don't have to spend so much money on furniture and fittings since the painting itself will often provide enough decorative interest.
Interior designers often match a whole room from one piece of art work. For instance they may use a large painting which is predominantly orange, to provide the accent colours for the rest of the room ie the cushions, vases and candles would also be in shades of orange.
Interior design tips for wall art
- Ceilings too high in your room? Then reduce their height by hanging a large horizontal painting or piece of wall art (this provides the illusion of the ceiling being lower in height). Alternatively, lengthen the height of a ceiling by hanging a vertical painting.
- If your wall boasts a pretty big surface then a small painting is going to drown in all that space. As a result large walls should have large paintings – or at least a whole collection of smaller ones.
- Want to make your room seem longer? Then hang a series of smaller paintings horizontally. To make it seem taller, nail them up vertically.
- If your room seems a bit on the claustrophobic or small side then it's a good idea to hang a painting with a distant horizon scene as it'll make you look further out when catching a glimpse of it.
- Want to add drama to a light room? Hang a dark coloured painting or artwork.
Ok, so maybe you've finally decided on the size, type and purpose of the painting or artwork you want to display. When it comes to finally putting it up though, just how high or low should it go?
We'd normally recommend hanging the painting at eye level (your own) although most interior designers recommend 60 inches as a good height for most individuals.
Having said that, if it's a piece of art you'd rather get a good look at while seated (eg in a study or dining room) then obviously it's going to have to go lower down the wall. In this case hang it at what will be your eye level when you're actually seated.
If there's going to be a fireplace, sofa or a hall table underneath the painting then it's a good idea to hang it at least six inches above the object in order to allow the art work to stand out. Make sure too that the painting isn't so much bigger than the furniture underneath (eg a plant stand) that it dwarfs the object.
If you'd like to view your art work as you climb your staircase then opt for several smaller paintings in increasing height rather than the one large painting. The former has the pleasing effect of merging with the upward flowing movement of the stairs.
Finally, if you're a bit on the anxious side about getting the precise location for your painting, then practice first. Cut out the shape of the painting on card or paper then tape it to the wall and leave it there for a day or two to see how you feel about it. Do this several times until you're absolutely sure you have the perfect spot.

Regional principals voted 11-1 to make the switch at a conference meeting at Beverly High School on Friday morning. According to Athletic Director Frank Shea, four schools similar in size and competitiveness were voted out of the NEC last month, which contributed to the switch. However, because football starts late in the year, that sport will remain in the NEC for two seasons, according to Shea. "We don't have any ill feelings against the Northeastern Conference," Shea said. "It's been a great 14 years." Prior to making the move to the NEC, Revere Athletics had been in the GBL for more than 75 years, according to Shea. Affecting 25 varsity teams, Shea explained, the switch will be a learning curve and it won't be perfect at first. But there are advantages. Students will return to school an hour earlier from away games and won't have to travel as much to communities such as Gloucester, Beverly, Marblehead and Swampscott, with the exception of some sports. Shea went on to say that Revere athletes will only play twice against each school and will have to find other schools in the league to compete against. "Championships won't mean as much since the Northeastern Conference is a big league," Shea said. "Most of our schedule was already set." Tara Vocino may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Revere resident Amy Bell is running this spring's Boston Marathon in memory of her father, who died after a short battle with bladder cancer in 2001. By Tara Vocino L ess than one year after giving birth to her son, Adrian, Revere resident Amy Bell will be running in the 123rd Boston Marathon. She will also be running in memory of her father, Jim, who passed away form bladder cancer in February 2001. Bell has raised approximately $4,000 to benefit the 2019 Pediatric Hematology Oncology Team at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). "This time will be very meaningful to me, as I will be seven months postpartum and this is a personal goal that I have set for myself," Bell said. "In 2001, I lost my dad to cancer, and during his battle, he spent time at MGH and received excellent care." She said she also received great health care when Adrian was born at MGH. Bell said she is running for those who can't run and to raise money for families living with cancer. She is hopeful that one day, the world will be cancer-free. Her fourth marathon – Bell has also run in the New York and Berlin Marathons. She ran Boston for the first time in 2015 and finished with a time of 4:07:29. However, she said this could be a slower year. "Realistically, this year, I anticipate finishing in five or more hours," Bell said. "Being almost six months postpartum, my training has been less intense Revere resident Amy Bell is running the Boston Marathon this spring for the 2019 MGH Pediatric Hematology Oncology Team, partly because of the excellent care she received when her son, Adrian, was born at MGH.

She said she runs in Newton before work and along Revere Beach with cross training in-between. Bell follows a training plan that was created by New York Runner, a nonprofit organization that customizes training based on goals, expectations and training time.

Daylight Savings Time begins this weekend. Everyone needs to set their clocks forward an hour before they go to bed tomorrow night (Saturday, March 9), as the time switch takes place officially at 2 a.m. on Sunday. But State Fire Marshal Peter Ostroskey urges homeowners and apartment tenants that it's also time to take care of some potentially life-saving matters. "This weekend as you change your clocks, check your alarms," Ostroskey said in a statement issued by his office this week. "Working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms can save your life. Replace aging alarms, and unless they have a 10-year sealed battery, replace the alkaline batteries now," the state fire marshal said. Replace aging smoke alarms "Smoke alarms, like other household appliances, don't last forever," said Chief Timothy J. Grenno, president of the Fire Chiefs' Association of Massachusetts, "Every 10 years the entire alarm needs to be replaced, not just the batteries," he added. The state fire code requires replacement battery-operatSKATING CENTER www.Roller-World.com | 781-231-1111 ATM on site Located adjacent to Honey Baked Ham in Saugus Plaza, South Bound Route 1 MBTA Bus Route 429 FREE WI-FI - 2 WIDE SCREEN TV'S FULLY AIR CONDITIONEDR Fall-Winter Skating Schedule ATTENTION!

Manufacturers generally recommend smoke alarms be replaced after 10 years and carbon monoxide alarms after five to seven years. Newer models with 10-year sealed batteries are designed to last longer and do not require replacement batteries. "Fire officials see too many disabled smoke alarms in fires when people really needed them to work … We hope that if smoke alarms are easier to maintain, people won't be tempted to disable them," Chief Grenno said. Time is your enemy in a fire "Time is your enemy in a fire, and working smoke alarms give you precious time to use your home escape plan before poisonous gases and heat make escape impossible," Ostroskey said. "Remember: Smoke alarms are a sound you can live with." In the average house fire, there are only one to three minutes to escape after the smoke alarm sounds. "No one expects to be a victim of a fire, but the best way to survive one that does occur is to have working smoke alarms," Grenno said. "Take a few minutes to protect those you love by changing the batteries in your smoke alarms this weekend. Then take a step stool and some 9-volts to your parents or older neighbor's and ask if you can refresh their smoke alarms," he said Senior SAFE Saugus is one of 242 fire departments across the state that have grant-funded Senior SAFE programs. Seniors who need help testing, maintaining or replacing smoke alarms should contact the Fire Department or the Saugus Senior Center for assistance. "Four out of every 10 of the people who have died in fires last year were over 65 … We want our seniors to be safe from fire in their own homes," Ostroskey said. The $2,600 Senior Safe grant that Saugus received for the current fiscal year enables the Fire Department to provide fire and life safety education to the town's elderly. Seniors have a high risk of dying in a fire. Fire and burns risks for seniors include cooking, smoking, home oxygen use, and electrical and heating dangers. Senior SAFE also aims to improve safety in senior housing. Programs include the following: • smoke and carbon monoxide alarm installation • testing and replacing batteries • installation of clearly displayed house street numbers • heating limiting devices on stoves • in-hood stove fire extinguishers • night-lights Education is key to improving the safety of seniors at home. Senior SAFE creates partnerships between agencies that serve seniors and fire departments. Together, these agencies collaborate on local fire and life safety education programs. ~ Legal Notice ~ City of Revere Public Hearing Notice is hereby given in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 40A of the Massachusetts General Laws and Sections 17.40.030 and 17.16.170 of the Revised Ordinances of the City of Revere that the Revere City Council will conduct a public hearing on Monday evening, March 25, 2019 at 6:00 P.M. in the City Councillor Joseph A.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE - Friday, March 8, 2019 Page 9 RHS senior Poetry Out Loud champ lauded by school board By Tara Vocino P oetry Out Loud champion Shiara Pyrrhus recently shared her poem and story with the School Committee. A senior at Revere High School, Pyrrhus read "Haiti," by Jennifer Rahim, which describes the devastating earthquake that struck the island nation nine years ago. The poem referenced that the will of the citizens outweighed the destruction caused by the earthquake. "For the Earth has spoken, to you, her magma Creole," Pyrrhus said during her reading. "Full-throated syllables, uprising from deep down, an honest elocution — rudimentary sound: guttural nouns, forthright, strong, the rumbled conviction of verbs unfettered by language has a connection to the earth. I was really excited when I found the poem and that I was able to do it justice." Tye said Pyrrhus's performance was lovely to listen to. Student Ava Hawkes was the first runner-up and Alessandra Santos was the second runnerup. According to Poetry Out Revere High School Senior Shiara Pyrrhus was recently selected as the winner of the spoken word competition Poetry Out Loud.

Pyrrhus said it was because she felt helpless living in the United States at the time of the disaster, having immigrated to the United States when she was eight. "So often, people see the negativity of poverty there, but it has the ability to create beauty from destruction," Pyrrhus said.

Have I always been so carefree about flying and traveling? Hell. No. Surprisingly, however, I was much more ok with it as a young child and even as a teenager and young adult (I lived in New York and went to college in Arizona, after all!), but not so much in my late twenties and early thirties. Of course, there was no elfin way I was gonna let fear stop me from seeing the world. In fact, I recently gave two books I read years ago (Don't Panic and Stop Obsessing) to my friend Nicole and, when I handed them to her, I noticed some stickies I'd written to myself on inside, one being "I have the courage to fly again." I don't even recall having such a strong fear, a fear so intense it led me to read books and write affirmations. But I did. And I no longer have that fear. At all.
That said, our recent trip to Spain entailed an eight hour flight from NYC to Barcelona, then a shorter flight (on a much smaller plane) from Barcelona to Madrid (please see Beauty, Charm, and Kindness. Madrid. for details about the first few days of our trip), and an eight hour return to NYC from Barcelona (in seats that did not recline).
We booked our flights on March 5th, exactly eight weeks before we'd arrive in Barcelona. With everything going on and getting ready to launch the blog, I didn't have any time to put into planning. But we knew we wanted to go and I found an airfare that we couldn't refuse ($400 per person round trip).
The next eight weeks were spent not thinking about our trip. As time passed, friends and family went from asking us what our plans were to urging us to book accommodations immediately. I wasn't too worried about it, though, because with the brilliant Airbnb, I figured we could always book something last minute. And we didn't even have our itinerary mapped out. In fact, deciding to fly to Madrid for the first part of the trip was something we decided pretty last minute and we were lucky enough to get a decent airfare on the one-way inter-city flight.
We literally did not book a place to stay in Madrid until May 1st, three days before our arrival. Thanks, Airbnb!
Travel Tip 1: PackPoint makes traveling with cognitive dysfunction (or just a regular busy life!) so easy. You just pop in your destination, duration of your trip, and activities, and it tells you the weather and what to pack. You can even add and remove items as needed. I always travel with my own pillow, for example, so I just add that to the list so I don't forget it (which I have too many times in the past). It is truly genius!
Travel Tip 2: Having a healthy appetite and so many dietary restrictions, I always travel with my own snacks. Listed here are some of my all-time faves: Go Raw Organic Choco Chunk Coconut Crisps, Go Raw Sunflower Seed Sprouted Flax Snax, Bar de Jar Raw Organic Almond Butter Truffles, Eden Organic Dry Roasted Pumpkin Seeds, Alive & Radiant Perfectly Plain Kale Krunch, Forager's Project Greens Organic Vegetable Chips, The Good Bean Roasted Favas & Peas in Sea Salt, and, last but not least, Sole Grano Pacific Almond Mix (add more almonds to counter the sugar from the dried fruit!). Don't forget lots and lots of H2O, too!
Here are some highlights of our trip, including my amateur photos:
Day 1: Barcelona to Madrid
Our flight on American out of JFK was delayed by four hours (with very little communication in between), so we missed our connecting flight on Vueling to Madrid. Our first encounter with the kind people of Madrid was at the Vueling customer service counter at Barcelona-El Prat Airport. What a pleasant experience! They were so helpful in getting us in touch with the insurance agency (we purchased missed flight insurance just in case), and I've never ever dealt with such a helpful insurance agent. They put us right on the next flight out, no questions asked. Total gems.
After almost needing to use the charming barf bag on our inter-city flight (we were in the very back of the plane, next to the loos…and, lemme tell ya, it was no smooth ride!), we arrived in Madrid. And the fun began.
Day 2: Day trip to Toledo and scrummy lunch at Ludena. It was here we met Jenny and Tom and enjoyed delicious authentic Spanish cuisine. Read more about our time in Madrid and Toledo here.
Day 3: Evening train ride from Madrid to Seville via Renfe
Our Airbnb, a sexy converted apartment with all the modern amenities one could wish for (including a rain shower head and central air conditioning), was right in the heart of the bustling historic Jewish Quarter, nestled above a delicious tapas restaurant. We had two balconies, one off of the living area and one off of the bedroom, with wrought iron railings, beautiful French doors, and rustic wooden blinds. We felt like true residents of the city, which made the experience that much more authentic.
We dropped our bags and headed straight to La Bartola. Oh. Em. Gee. Some of the best tapas and tintos we had in Spain! (See food porn photos from this amazing dining experience here).
It was pretty late, so we took a short walk after we finished indulging, then headed back to the apartment for some good rest.
Day 4: From Bull Fighting (utterly disgraceful, in our opinion) to Flamenco Dancing, the charming city of Seville had so much to offer beyond it's historical and nautical beauty. The especially narrow streets were evidence of the ancient establishment of the city, and the stunning architecture made us feel as if we were in a Spanish fairytale. We couldn't pass a doorway without the desire to take a photo. There should be a museum just to showcase las puertas de España!
We decided to explore Seville on foot, as we usually do on our travels. We walked to the Canal de Alfonso XIII where we explored the Plaza de Toros (but did not stay for a fight. As I mentioned before, we are both really against the whole thing. It's murder, after all. But we felt since we were there, we should check out the arena), the University of Seville, Plaza de España, the Parque de Maria Luisa, then to the modern neighborhood of El Porvenir. On our journey, we came upon a quaint residential area where we ran into a little cafe (Cafeteria Benjamin Martin) and were forced to place our order en español. Our kinda spot!
Side Note: Throughout our travels, I realized how well Yo hablo español. Te impresioné? Bueno! 😉
We then walked back to the Jewish Quarter for an afternoon nap. That night, we walked and walked (we clocked 75 miles on this trip) to the best gelato place in Seville, La Fiorentina Heladeria. We then walked from there all the way to La Azotea for dinner (where we met fellow blogger, Anissa Prifti of The Oufti Perspective – check her out!) then hit a truly authentic and amazing Flamenco show at La Carboneria, a gem my husband scoped out along the way. SO. MUCH. FUN. The way this woman moved her feet was beyond human comprehension. And the male vocalists? Aye, yai, yai! You wouldn't think it by looking at them in their sweaty button-downs and old-school denim jeans, but, WOW. We'd been to other Flamenco shows (where the performers were actually dressed in traditional costume) and not one of them compared. If you want to see a real Flamenco show, you must go to Seville!
Some more pics from Seville…
Day 5: We pick up our rental car at Seville airport and hit the open Spanish road. We have no plans as to where we will stop along the way. We want to wing it.
Check out some videos of our road trip @ItTookTurning40 on Instagram.
Of course, every American we encountered told us not to miss Alhambra in Granada, so, as we made our way across the south of Spain in our Jeep Renegade, we made our first stop. The park was so peaceful and beautiful, it's easy to forget you are an earthly being. Granada's city center also had it's ancient charm, but I'm not sure if it was a function of not spending enough time there or if it was because we were feeling genuinely local with the car, but we didn't love it. We walked around and saw the sites, and even had a delicious Moroccan lunch (I was surprised at the lack of Moorish influence in Seville, but once we arrived in Granada, it became obvious we were only a boat ride away from beautiful Morroco).
All throughout Spain, we met kind and delightful people; people as beautiful as the country itself, on the inside and out.
We hopped back in the Jeep around six and headed out just in time to see the sunset all around us. Next stop? Only the Spanish Gods knew where we'd end up. We'd stop when we got too tired to keep driving. Imagine driving in a foreign country between mountains and sea with only the moonlight…and your headlights to guide you?
Seeing that this post is already WAY TOO LONG, you will just have to stay tuned to find out where we ended up next…
Until then, viva España!

Losing Touch: Revisiting the Importance of Touch and Physical Play in Childhood Development
Touch and physical play are instrumental to healthy child development in many domains. We are wired to move, to experience each other in space and time beyond words. In recent years, one such physical form of play has declined. Opportunities for children to engage in rough and tumble play have decreased, and in some circles the attitude towards its utility has taken a negative turn. Lines between the healthy aspects of physicality and harmful aggression appeared to have blurred. For this, a hands-off mentality has taken hold in many natural places of play.
Lost in the overly structured and "hands off" philosophy are opportunities for natural connection and the promotion of self-regulation. On the softer side, touch, whether a hug, a pat on the back or playful tap happens far less in the U.S. than other countries. Further, in schools and centers where children spend most of their days, touch is often discouraged. On the more active side, rough and tumble play is, for the most part, off-limits.
While these policies are most likely not changing anytime soon, there are things parents can do to make these important aspects a part of our relationships and rituals. First, let's take a brief look at three important physical aspects of social-emotional connection.
The skin is the body's largest organ and touch is vital to healthy development. In his book, Touching, Ashley Montagu states that ''touch is ten times stronger than verbal or emotional contact… We forget that touch is not only basic to our species, but the key to it.'' Touch is vital to the expression of care and connection, and is important to the development of a healthy attachment.
Rough and Tumble Play
Rough and tumble play involves physical contact such as wrestling and tumbling, and has been linked with both emotional regulation and physical aggression in early childhood. While mothers engage in physical play, it is often fathers who engage in the rough and tumble type. Studies found a relationship between rough and tumble play and physical aggression in early childhood if the father played a less dominant or submissive role. No such correlation existed if the father played a dominant role in the dyad.
The authors followed-up on this study 5 years later, found that the associations remained true. Importantly, the impact of rough and tumble play on the development of self-regulation was modulated by the quality of the father-child dyad. If the father maintained the role of challenging and supportive of learning in the domain of physical interaction, rather than a submissive partner, rough and tumble play contributed to the child's psychological adjustment over time.
Screen Time
One aspect of the loss of physical connection comes in the form of replacement. Relating rituals and some aspects of play have been replaced by the two dimensions of screens. The important point here is not the value of screen time, but what is not happening in its place. Time spent on screens is time away from play and social interaction.
Screens will not be going away and the question is not about technology, but how it does or does not influence social-emotional development in the overall picture. While research is in the early stages, some studies have found a negative relationship with the development of executive functions (EF) and social skills. Executive functions (EF) are critical to prosocial behavior and regulating emotions. One study found "television may negatively affect children's social behavior by directly affecting cognitive functioning, which may, in turn, manifest in poor social behavior." The study revealed that even watching child-oriented programming was negatively related to executive functions. Simply put: touch, physical play, and relating occur in time and space and are active processes.
What you can do:
- Make touch a part of relationship rituals, such as greetings, good-byes, play, and celebrations.
- Introduce rough and tumble play if it isn't already a part of relationship building. While you may engage in lose-win interactions (child gets away from you, or tackles you to the ground) it is important to maintain the authoritative stance. This includes maintaining safety, stopping play, setting limits, and teaching appropriate physical engagement.
- Plan the use of technology and place limits on screen time. The addictive quality of screens can no longer be refuted (based on research the American Psychiatric Association has proposed the diagnostic label of Internet Gaming Disorder), and findings suggest the pattern starts earlier than one would expect. Again, technology is neutral and we are empowered by how we use it. If the passive world of screens is the center of attention, real life will seem more challenging and more difficult to negotiate evident in the behaviors we witness when screens are removed. Whenever possible make screen time an active rather than passive process, engaging with children in content appropriate to their developmental level.
- Get outside and move. Playing catch or "stop and go" games like "freeze tag," not only help develop executive functions, but are opportunities to develop relationships. Give your child a piggy-back ride. Hold hands on a walk.
- Snuggle up with a good book. Younger children can sit in your lap and enjoy a picture book. For older children, reading is a great side-by-side activity. Designate a special place to share space and sit close enough to touch shoulders, share a laugh, pat knees, and rub circles on their back.
- Consider your own beliefs of touch and physical play. When, where and how were these thoughts and ideas transmitted? Are these beliefs based on developmentally sound concepts? Reflect on your own experiences of touch and physical play as a child. Was affection shown by touch? Was rough and tumble play discouraged or encouraged? How has this influenced your present view?
Little things matter and add up over time. Even if touch is not your or your child's love language, it is still an important expression of love and care.

Meet Libby Ethridge, our Central PA Office Manager! Her family's transparency about she and her sibling's international adoption drives her to spread awareness about the adoption process through the eyes of the adoptee. Read on to find out more about her adoption story and how she helps clients, family, and friends!
Can you tell us more about your personal adoption connection?
I would love to share my adoption story. All three of my siblings and I joined our family through adoption. My older sister, older brother, and I were all adopted from Korea; I was three years old at the time of my adoption. My parents also adopted an infant from Erie, PA a month before they picked us up from Philadelphia! Now, my older sister and brother-in-law are in the process of adopting in Florida and have been matched with an expecting mother. Adoption has marked my whole life, and I am so grateful.
What was it like growing up with siblings who were also adopted?
Having been adopted internationally, there were hurdles my older siblings and I experienced togehter like language, food, and culture; as non-infants, we had memories of where we came from and our life prior to arriving in America. My parents presented being a transracial family as normal; they always expressed how we were a family; all of us.
As someone who was adopted across racial lines, what would you want families considering transracial adoption to know?
I would want them to know that there will be challenges that they and their child will face, but it is truly worth it. When their child faces questions or prejudices from others, they should validate those questions and concerns by listening. I always encourage counseling and gaining as much knowledge from other parents who have adopted transracially as possible.
How did your parents talk with you and your siblings about adoption?
Since we were older during our adoption process, we always knew we were adopted, so that was never a secret or something they hid. My parents were always so proud of all of us all being adopted. We would celebrate National Adoption Day when we were younger, and my parents were proud to share the story of how we became a family.
What advice were you able to pass along to your sister and brother-in-law during their adoption process?
I think that aside from giving advice, I had a deeper empathy for their process because of my work with families through AFTH. Realizing the time, energy, and emotional strength it takes to go on the adoption journey made me want to support them financially, listen as they struggled through uncertainty, and share the success stories to hopefully encourage them.
How has being an adoptee influenced your work at AFTH?
Being an adoptee influences my work here because I understand the longing of our clients to build a family of their own. In my interactions with adoptive parent, it motivates me to give them the best available resources, so their adoption process is a wonderful, strengthening journey. It has also influenced the way I think of our birth parents because I personally know that every birth parent's story and reasons for placing are different.
Thank you for sharing such a unique perspective on the adoption process, Libby!

Too Big to Play Small
Engage…or Die
He's too much of a gentleman to come right out and say it, but no matter how successful you are, Dr. Gerry Clum is telling us all, as individual chiropractors, "You're probably not thinking big enough."
And that's because chiropractic is just big enough to be in danger of becoming a victim of its own success.
As chiropractic has grown from a fringe profession fighting for its life as a separate and distinct profession, it's starting to be a player for people's hard earned healthcare dollars…and that makes us a target (again).
Watch as Dr. Jason Deitch asks Dr. Clum what it's going to take for you to achieve the marketshare you deserve in return for the value chiropractic brings to its patients.

TeraRanger Tower is a competitor to the traditional Lidar. The big difference is that the TeraRanger Tower doesn't have any moveable components which makes it completely silent.
Another advantage is that there's no need to worry about a contact with eyes. TeraRanger is able to register an obstacle 14 meters away and the accuracy is 4 cm. Mainly it's useful for drones and other autonomous vehicles. The proportions are 150 x 45 mm and it weighs 130 grams.
