Trying to decide which one is right for you? We did our own research to offer our readers some insight behind each of the two giants. Hope this helps with your decision!
Unless you're a well-seasoned veteran (and even if you are) there's a lot to learn when it comes to being your own boss and playing by your own rules in the music industry. For now, let's just focus on the two (yes, two) major Performance Rights Organizations (PROs) options available if you reside in the United States. The third option, SESAC is by invitation only, and wait, there's more for other countries as well (and even in the U.S.), but each operates by their own set of rules. It's a lot to get into, so let's get back to our main two.
First, simply put, a performance rights organization is there to protect the authors, composers, and publishers (more on this topic in another article) of a musical work. The songwriter, music composer, and the publisher each have certain rights and royalties to any song they contribute to creating and it's the PROs job to make sure all parties are paid for any public performance of the song. This includes when a song is played on the radio, in the mall, in a restaurant, etc.
There's the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) and the Broadcast Music, Inc (BMI). Both generally boasts offering the same protection and support to new artists and publishers in their own unique way. We'll share our highlights and allow you to form your own opinion on which works best for you.
BMI was founded in 1939 by the National Association of Broadcasters as an alternative to ASCAP, who at the time had been the dominant PRO option available for at least 20 years. BMI has been known for sporting relationships with some pretty heavy lifters such as Rihanna, Eminem, Maroon 5, and Lady Gaga. Back then, BMI sought to work with and compensate the independent artists that ASCAP overlooked in genres like blues, gospel, jazz, country, and R&B.
To become a member, you either register as a songwriter, publisher, or both. If you're an indie artist who plans on publishing your own work (and possibly the work of others as an independent label), you should go ahead and register as both to ensure you claim all royalties (and rights) and not just the songwriter portion. It's free to join as a songwriter or composer, but there is a one-time fee of $150 for publishers. For most, BMI's monthly meet and greets seem a bit stand-offish and not as engaging with its members compared to ASCAP. They are also pretty strict on meeting timelines for cataloging performances, or you can get hit with a penalty fee. Their payment schedule of royalties is on a quarterly basis, so that means artists are paid four times out of the year. Unless you're on a trailblazing path to collecting a significant amount of royalties we don't recommend you quit your day job.
You can only be a current member, represented by one PRO at any given time and when you sign up with BMI, you're probably looking at being locked into a contract agreement of a minimum 2 years. It's recommended that before joining any PRO you ask around and speak to individuals who are already a member.
Here are a few of our Pros & Cons:
- We liked the video tab where they share insider industry knowledge from industry leaders. Click "Video" then "Education & Advocacy".
- Their site is relatively simple to navigate.
- You can view and download important information concerning new changes in the music industry with the passage of the 2018 Music Modernization Act under the "Advocacy" tab. A MUST read for prospective members.
- You may get hit with other unanticipated fees to license your song(s).
- As mentioned previously, the consensus is that BMI could use a little more work in the consumer relations department, suggesting that they may give the main focus of their attention to their well-established artists vs. the newbies
As always, it's important for you as an independent artist to do your own research to understand how the industry works and affects you! Be sure to check back for our take on ASCAP and more upcoming articles on this subject. Happy researching!

|41 1/8 in x 27 1/2 in (104.5 cm x 69.9 cm)

|This work is in excellent condition.
Joan Miró Barcelona, 1972-1973 is a graphic and animated display of the Spanish artist's distinct version of Surrealism. The subject of this grand composition is a mysterious character that could only exist out of Miró's wild imagination. The figure's primary feature is a bold yellow and red eye, outlined in black and flanked with cartoon curling black lashes. Its body is loosely defined with a prominent hooked nose, serpentine neck, and outstretched arms. The figure has two hands, drafted with an uncharacteristic realism, which upon close inspection appear to be the hand-prints of the artist himself. This element grants a glimpse into the automatic and active process of Miró, while also creating a striking visual effect. Color is introduced sporadically around the figure, inserting limited bursts of red, green, and blue circles and rectangles that seem to suggest the character's inner psyche. A truly fascinating work to behold in person, this large scale work is playfully bold.
Created in 1972-1973, Joan Miró Barcelona, 1972-1973 is a color etching, aquatint, and carborundum on Guarro paper. Hand-signed by Joan Miró (Barcelona, 1893 – Palma, 1983) in pencil in the lower right, this work is numbered from the edition of 50 in pencil in the lower left. This work was printed by J. J. Torralba, Barcelona and published by Sala Gaspar, Barcelona. This work is from a series of 13 engravings in etching, aquatint and carborundum gathered together in a portfolio.

Exxon's Next Chief Will Lead a Weakened Empire
The New York Times confidently tells us.
With Saudi Aramco hoping to take over as the world's biggest listed oil group and rival Shell coming up fast, Exxon's days as Big Oil's unparalleled heavyweight are numbered.
Hmmm. Let's see the details of Saudi Aramco's IPO and let it actually take place before we start writing off ExxonMobil, shall we? Are the reserves up for sale, for instance?
And Shell? On what measure are they catching up fast? Sure, their purchase of BG for a vastly inflated $70bn makes them the largest gas player, but 2015 saw them make $1.94bn profit against revenues of $265bn whereas ExxonMobil made $16.2bn from revenues of $259.5bn. ExxonMobil's return on capital employed was 7.9%, Shell's 1.9%. Granted, Shell employs 93,000 people and ExxonMobil a mere 73,500 but only people who get their information from the New York Times would see that as a good thing.
Shell is a sprawling behemoth which still needs to undergo some serious restructuring, and doesn't seem to have much of a strategy other than to become the world's biggest oil company by biting off more than it can chew. ExxonMobil, for all its size, remains a tightly-run ship.
The company's market cap of around $380 billion is not much changed from a decade ago, and could soon be dwarfed by the state-owned Aramco, which analysts estimate could be worth up to $1 trillion if it goes ahead with an expected 2018 initial public offering.
Sure. But Aramco is being forced into this IPO because despite sitting on top of the world's largest oil reserves they are woefully short of working capital. The privatised company might be larger than ExxonMobil, but we should remember that British Leyland was larger than Volkswagen.
Shell — now valued at more than $200 billion thanks to its 2015 acquisition of BG Group — may produce more barrels than Exxon by 2019.
Production is king? What is this, 2012? Perhaps the journos at the NYT have been left off the mailing list, but the majors stopped chasing production targets and switched to CAPEX reduction and profitability shortly after the oil price tanked in 2014.
Shell's leader, Ben van Beurden, also wants to beat his larger rival in terms of total shareholder return.
Yes, we know Shell wants to "beat" ExxonMobil – that's been their goal for years, although Lord knows why – but they've never been able to quite manage it. What's different now?
The good news for Mr. Woods is that Exxon still dominates in one key respect: return on average capital employed.
Over the last five years, Exxon's return on that measure has bested Shell's by nearly 7 percentage points on average. That is one imperial feature that will take time to erode.
Well yes, that is good news, isn't it? One is permitted to ask why the NYT is giving equal weight to the egotistical dreams of the Shell CEO versus ExxonMobil's vastly superior financial performance.
Because those at the NYT are clueless and don't like ExxonMobil, that's why.


text: In this chapter, the author focuses on the industrialist and philanthropist, Henry Simon of Manchester, including his relationship with the Norwegian explorer, Fridtjof Nansen. Lawnhurst is one of several mansions in Didsbury, built as family homes by wealthy industrialists and businessmen in the second half of the nineteenth century. In Lysaker, Norway, just outside Oslo, there is another mansion house, called Polhøgda, which is very like Lawnhurst. The house was built in 1901 for the Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen, who then lived there until his death in 1930. It was inspired by Lawnhurst: Nansen had borrowed the plans from Henry Simon, after staying there as Henry's guest in 1897.

Witches have always been widdershins people.
Down the millennia, we've put up with a certain amount of guff on this account, even back in pagan times.
But everyone needs a little widdershins now and then.
It's applesauce time right now. The thing about apples is, only the whole ones keep. The bruised, the blemished, the ones with broken skins, will never last the winter.
So you cut them up and cook them down with a little salt and cider. Then you run them through the food mill.
Around and around goes the food mill. It's a collar with a screen on the bottom. You turn and turn the handle, always with the Sun; the applesauce trickles out into the bowl beneath, and the screen catches the stems, skins, and seeds.

Menopause signals the end of your reproductive years. While it's a natural biological process that every woman goes through in her 40s or 50s, many of the symptoms can be unpleasant. Serving women in Thousand Oaks, California, and the surrounding communities, Allen Lawrence, MD, MA, PhD, provides relief from menopausal symptoms at Conejo Valley Advanced Wellness. From mood swings to hot flashes, menopause can make life difficult. Luckily, Dr. Lawrence can help with bioidentical hormone therapy and integrative wellness. To learn more, book an appointment online or by phone today.
Menopause is a natural biological process that all women go through, usually beginning between the ages of 40-60, that marks the end of their reproductive years. Once you enter menopause, you're no longer able to have children. Menopause can last up to four years, and perimenopause, or the years leading up to menopause, can last between four and 10 years.
Menopause is diagnosed after it's been one year since you had a menstrual period. As you enter your 40s and 50s, your body begins producing fewer female hormones, which triggers the beginning of menopause.
Estrogen and progesterone are female hormones that regulate ovulation and menstruation. As you grow older, your body produces fewer hormones. Hormonal imbalance can cause a variety of unpleasant symptoms characteristic of menopause.
Menopausal symptoms can begin developing when you enter perimenopause, and you can experience them even after menopause is over. In perimenopause, you might notice that your menstrual periods are irregular.
Common symptoms of menopause include:
The severity of menopausal symptoms is different for every woman, but these side effects have the power to significantly impact your quality of life. If menopause is interfering with your life, it's time to schedule a consultation with Dr. Lawrence.
Hormonal changes are the cause of menopausal symptoms, and bioidentical hormone therapy can help. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a treatment option that replaces the hormones your body has stopped producing to return balance to your body and mind.
HRT treats the hormonal deficiency by replacing female hormones your body is missing with chemically identical hormones. It can help relieve unpleasant symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness. Depending on your unique situation, Dr. Lawrence can make the best recommendation for the type of hormone therapy that will bring you the most benefits.
For relief from the serious side effects of menopause, consider bioidentical hormone therapy at Conejo Valley Advanced Wellness. Dr. Lawrence takes the time to understand your symptoms and works with you to find the best treatment option. Book your appointment online or by phone today.

The Role of Empathy in Consent
Note: this is long, incredibly nuanced, and full of caveats.

Musing wine thoughts: pain, power, and sex are intrinsically linked for me.

But I think I haven't wanted to touch pain and power… Continue reading Pain, Power, and Sex

I haven't known how to write this, because the truth is in context, and the context is hard. Necessary. Relevant. Vulnerable. Messy. Insanely, poignantly, unmistakably human. And violent.

(If you want to go into the slot's game with a maximum wager as fast as it possible – use the smart "Max Bet". "Spin" and "Autoplay" have the functionality similar to all video slots. Symbols could be present in two groups:
1. "Simple". Here are the "J" – "A" signs of cards.
2. "Hound Hotel's guests". Wilrich Wolfgans III is descendant of a noble family, which is proud of kinship with wolves. (He has thick gray eyebrows and elegant whiskers. Wilrich likes to dive in his thought while smoking a pipe.)
Bromfeld Gross is a very sentimental and suspicious earl. (In the mornings he is always frightened-surprised eyes, wear the dark-purple robe and drinking a cup of hot coffee.) Barneveld Mopss is judicious and unhurried in action millionaire which is wearing a brown cap, the same shade of a waistcoat over the top of a white shirt and a purple tie. (Most all the time Barneveld is holding a cigar in his mouth, and a glass of whiskey.)
Simon Hassell is a gallant, sometimes overly impulsive lord which is searching his "the only one".

Bonus rounds are noble and interesting

Perlane Dermal Filler
Getting old is inevitable and comes with many changes to our bodies. Wrinkles, nasolabial folds and cheek depressions are some of the characteristics witnessed on the face of an older person. Although age cannot be reversed, older people are taking advantage of revolutionary new techniques to improve their facial appearance making them look much younger. This technique is also used by people in need of a better facial form. Some people have scars, acne and parts of their body that need improvement, such as the lips and cheek bone region. One of the techniques commonly used is Perlane dermal filler which is used together with hyaluronic acid found in the spaces between cells in the body. Hyaluronic is used together with Perlane to replenish the diminishing supplies of cells in the face and hydrate the skin.
What is Perlane Dermal Filler?
Unlike most dermal fillers, Perlane dermal filler is not made from animal products which cause hypersensitive reactions, therefore, there is no need for allergy tests to be carried out. Other forms of dermal filler require allergy tests before use. The most interesting part of Perlane is that it is hydrophilic and therefore attracts water. When broken into smaller particles, it attracts more water thus maintaining the fuller facial appearance for longer periods of time. Once the product is in the body it attracts more water, maintaining a good facial form. This explains why Perlane dermal filler lasts much longer than all other dermal fillers.
The Perlane Dermal Filler Process
Like most dermal treatments, Perlane dermal filler is carried out through an injection. The doctor determines the area and amount of Perlane to be injected then proceeds with the treatment using a very thin needle. The procedure does not take long; it takes between 30 and 45 minutes. Most of this time is because the doctor has to use anaesthetic because Perlane dermal filler is injected deep into the dermis and can be painful without it.
Finding a Doctor
Perlane dermal filler treatment should be carried out by experienced physicians or nurses. Treatment by inexperienced physicians can cause a lot of damage. For example, if the inexperienced dermal physician injects you in the wrong place, you will have your face raised on some sides making it uneven. Bearing in mind that these processes are irreversible, it can cost you a lot of money to have a smooth facial appearance. You must carry out research to find the best place to have Perlane dermal filler treatment. There are several blogs and forums over the internet in which the best and most experienced Perlane dermal filler physicians can be recommended. Although well experienced Perlane dermal fillers physicians cost more, treatment from them is worth your money because there is no chance of mistakes.
Perlane Dermal Filler After-Care
A few hours after the treatment all of the wrinkles, nasolabial folds and cheek depressions will not be visible any more. Instead, you will have a smooth and even face that will last several months. Patients with sensitive skins may develop pain, lumps, tenderness and redness at the site of injection. These effects subside after a maximum of 48 hours. Perlane dermal treatment effects last for between 4 and 8 months depending on the area treated. To maintain a soft, smooth and even face without wrinkles and depressions permanently, you will need to have at least two Perlane dermal filler treatment injections every year.

About Barbara Anger
Barbara Anger has been working professionally in the theatre since 1974, with a Masters in Theatre received in 1990 from Vermont College of Norwich U. She is probably best known for her work with Mischief Mime Theatre Co. where she toured nationally teaching and performing original theatre pieces. Her performances are a unique blend of theatre, mime, improvisation and storytelling. They are witty and thought provoking including ideas about relationships and communication. She uses original tales, Aesop fables and myths to create shows for young people.
Her performance work includes stints off Broadway and at many theatres, colleges, and elementary and secondary schools across the country.
Barbara has been an acting professor at Ithaca College since 1985. There she also directs an interactive theatre piece, Date At Eight, that she wrote. This powerful piece about date rape has been performed at Cornell U., Wells College and in January 2001 at Binghamton U. The last two years Barbara has directed monologues for Ithaca College's participation in the V-Day Initiative.
Barbara has been a teaching artist with the Southern Tier Institute for 10 years and has done some performing and teaching with the Institute in Syracuse. She's directed for the Hangar Theatre's children's touring show and continues to do solo performances in the Southern Tier Schools as a BOCES approved artist.
Before devoting herself full time to theatre Barbara worked as a commercial artist doing illustration, past-up and lay-out work, site drawings for engineers and lay-outs for a silk screen house. During this time she also worked creatively making soft sculptures, assemblages, drawings, paintings and prints. Her interest in the visual arts has continued even while working on her theatre pieces. She has now taken a great interest in book making and computer art and continues to create visual art work.
For 25 years Barbara has been teaching students from preschool through college, as well as, adults and senior citizens. She's been a featured performer and teacher at several N.Y.S. Arts in Education Conferences. Other workshops include N.Y.S. Educators Conference, N.Y.S., Council for Children, and N.Y.S. Very Special Children's Arts Festival. She's been a Teaching Artist for the Institute for Aesthetic Education in Syracuse at the Cultural Resource Center and for over a decade at the Southern Tier Institute. Her teaching includes many residencies with schools through NYFA and BOCES. For several years she taught drama classes to young people in a low income housing project sponsored by a City of Ithaca and HUD arts program. The list goes on to teaching acting, storytelling and mime at the Tompkins County Senior Citizens Center, adult and children's classes at Mischief Mime Studio, and in arts camps at the the Community School of Music and Art and Ithaca Ballet. In the past she's taught year long residencies at Greene Intermediate School through an Empire State Partnership Grant (ESP) and in Watkins Glen through a Cultural Arts Grant for the Kindergarten. A third shorter residency was at the elementary school in Bath, N.Y. Last year she did another year long residency at Greene Intermediate and a shorter one at Ithaca H.S. both through ESP Grants. She continues to teach acting to drama majors and non majors at Ithaca College.

From what I understand, QM is all about uncertainty. The wavefunction (or rather $|\Psi|^2$) gives us a probability of finding a particle at a certain point. Then, we measure the particle, and find what point it is at.
Now, here's my trouble - QM states that before we measured this particle, it was in a superposition of many states and did not have a definite position. This also implies the wave function is "perfect" because it gives as accurate information as possible about the position particle before we measure it.
So, how do we know this? Why can't there be a function $\phi$ that doesn't give probability distributions, but instead gives definite locations of particles, and we just haven't found a way of expressing or computing it? Why do we know that the position of particles is physically uncertain, and not just unknown to the experimenter? Sure, Quantum Mechanics works out beautifully and fits the results, but perhaps it is simply a very good theory of probability when we have a much more elegant and simple theory?

This Guy Just Upped the Ante with a Photo Booth Proposal
Get ready for the cutest photo booth session ever. Elite Daily found this adorable proposal on YouTube, and after watching it for ourselves, we can't stop smiling.
Kevin Moran decided to pop the question while striking poses with his high school sweetheart, Molly. The couple both smile pretty in the first picture, and then, well, you'll see…
This is a good reminder that a proposal doesn't need to be elaborately planned out for months (although that's not a bad idea either…) for it to be successful. Sometimes short and sweet is all it takes to secure a "yes!"

TORONTO — Five things to watch for in the Canadian business world in the coming week:
Wholesale trade numbers
Statistics Canada will release wholesale trade data for May on Monday. The Canadian economy has been showing signs of picking up strength in recent months after a weak showing at the end of 2018 and the start of the year.
New railway record?
Canadian National Railway Co. releases second-quarter earnings results on Tuesday. The country's largest railway said it was on track to move record quantities of western Canadian grain after transporting more than 2.3 million tonnes of grain in June.
Rogers earnings
Rogers Communications Inc. will host a conference call to discuss its second-quarter results on Tuesday. The Toronto-based telecommunications and media company said it is confident its new device financing plans comply with federal codes after the regulator said it would submit questions to companies that had introduced such plans.
Suncor update
Suncor Energy Inc. will host a conference call to discuss second quarter results on Thursday. CEO Mark Little told an audience at an energy conference in Calgary recently that despite higher oil prices, the company is more focused on share buybacks than it is on increased spending.
George Weston's turnaround plan
George Weston Ltd. will hold a conference call to discuss its second-quarter results on Friday. Executives told shareholders in May that the company is starting to stabilize about a year into a multi-year transformation plan, and had won new business in its frozen division, mostly in doughnuts and pies.

Oct 21, 2016—
The rate of adoption for radio frequency identification in the retail apparel, footwear and accessories market has more than doubled during the past two years, according to a survey of 60 European and U.S. retailers and wholesalers, conducted by management and strategy consulting firm Kurt Salmon. The company's first large retail study, carried out in 2014, found that 34 percent of respondents had either implemented or were currently implementing or piloting RFID (see Many RFID-Adopting Retailers Report More Than 5 Percent Improvement in Gross Margins). When Kurt Salmon conducted a similar survey two years later, in May 2016, that rate grew to 73 percent. Of the 16 respondents not using RFID, 86 percent indicated that management at their company was focused on other priorities, while only 2 percent felt that RFID would not provide substantial benefits.
The survey's results were published this month in a report titled "The Kurt Salmon RFID in Retail Study 2016."
"We went into the [2016] survey with open minds," says Jason Sain, Kurt Salmon's senior manager and one of the report's authors, "but we were intrigued that there has been such a huge acceleration in growth." Much of that growth, he notes, results from retailers' need to offer products for sale through multiple channels. "RFID is an enabling technology that can support retailers to compete in the digital sales environment," Sain says.
Numerous metrics were collected in the 2016 survey, Sain says, but the most significant "is the pure adoption level. In 2014, adoption was only 34 percent; now it's over 70 percent—that's more than 100 percent growth. That was a huge takeaway." The second key change in survey responses during the past two years, he says, was in the reported return on investment (ROI) of RFID adopters. In 2014, back-room to front-of-store inventory accuracy (the correct count of goods on the sales floor and in the back room, enabling replenishment in the store front to occur in a timely fashion) provided the single key ROI.
This year, there were eight use cases that showed a positive ROI, including reduced time and labor costs (yielding a 12.0 percent ROI), improved back-room to front-of-store inventory accuracy (10.3 percent), self-checkout (10.0 percent), fewer out-of-stocks (8.7 percent), omnichannel fulfillment support (8.1 percent) and reduced shrinkage (5.6 percent).
For its 2016 report, Kurt Salmon partnered with EKN Research to interview 60 apparel industry executives throughout the United States and Europe. Interviews were conducted online, by phone and in person, during May. The respondents' companies each reported annual sales of at least $500 million, with 40 percent claiming more than $1 billion in yearly revenue. Forty-five percent of respondents' companies were apparel or specialty retailers, 33 percent were wholesalers, and 22 percent were fashion, general-merchandise, department-store or accessories retailers.
Kurt Salmon's 2014 survey had found that for those apparel, footwear and accessory (soft line) retailers who adopted RFID, the gross margins were increased by 5 percent, while the primary reported benefit was improved back-room to sales-floor inventory accuracy, as well as improved replenishment rates based on that accuracy. At that time, a few retailers had also been experimenting with interactive solutions, such as smart fitting rooms and magic mirrors. Omnichannel adoption was an interest, Sain reports, but not a primary issue for companies at that time.

T-D Celebrates Mongolian Heritage Day
October 4, 2018
Thornton-Donovan's 2018-2019 school year has begun! And what better way to kick the year off than with a day of cultural celebration?
On Friday, September 14, T-D received its first taste of Mongolian culture, celebrating the country's National Heritage Day. Students crowded the front lawn of the school White House and were met by a large round tent structure. Headmaster Fleming then introduced a Mongolian ambassador, Dr. Surena Dorj, who explained that the official name for the structure was a "yurt." She informed the students of the significance of the yurt in Mongolian culture and its use as a portable home that can be brought down and rebuilt throughout the nation's countryside. Dr. Dorj also informed us of several other aspects of Mongolian culture, such as their love for horses.
The students were then treated with live Mongolian traditional music with a performer playing on the Mongolian horse head fiddle (the morin khuur,) and a singer singing traditional songs. We were then given the chance to build our own miniature yurt and peruse the various Mongolian artworks that were put on display by Mongolian event-planner Byambakhuu. After being treated by Dr. Dorj with a variety of traditional finger foods, T-D's students and faculty were invited to the school's tennis court for the afternoon's main event: a live performance from metal band "Tennger Calvary," a Mongolian music group led by morin khuur player Nature G.
The Overlook Journal had the chance to speak to some T-D students about their thoughts of this cultural event.
"It was well thought out. The traditions of Mongolia and how they showed it to us was really exciting" says sophomore Mohammed Ali '21, who says his favorite part of the day was hearing Nature G's traditional throat singing.
Thornton-Donovan will be engaging more in Mongolian history and culture throughout the year, with thematic classes focusing on its music, historic significance and present society, all leading up to our annual international trip to Mongolia this coming February.

With this regular evening class we invite our most advanced students to continue their research in Seme-nawa under our guidance. On the basis of the what has been learned up to this point, we deal with more technically complex positions. This requires a lot of routine and good communication between the partners. We address flow and dynamics, but also more advanced ideas how to develop a "scene." We show elements and principles of the Kinbaku that we tie "for us." In doing so we pick up positions from the "Water" or "Fire" Elements, and create new versions or develop paths of transformation between them. As a result you will become more free and creative in your bondage whilst creating images that are aesthetically reminiscent of calligraphy or ikebana.
Who is it for?
This workshop is for couples (of all ages and gender constellations) who want to engage on the most advanced level with our interpretation of Kinbaku. Each unit is self-contained and enriches you with a new twist on using erotic bondage in your play.
In order to master the element of air, both partners should have developed a safe routine in joint tying in our style and be able to fluidly manage even more complex suspensions. Advanced students and changers from other styles are welcome.
Results and Benefits
… as a Rigger
- developing more personal, creative and playful attitude towards seme-nawa
- creating exciting and satisfying Kinbaku sessions for both partners
- mastering challenging, aesthetic and erotic ties and the fluid transition between them
… as a Rope-Bottom
- building on the previously learned basics (centering, openness toward the impact, endurance) developing more personal and playful attitude towards seme-nawa
- developing your personal expression and communication style in ropes
- exploring your personal learning edge
- Closed Group of five couples
- 6 units of 2.5 hrs practice each, twice a month for a period of 3-4 month
- Tee, coffee and soft drinks are provided
- Location: Studio 6×6, Berlin-Moabit (detailed address comes with confirmation)
- Language: English / German
Contribution: 430 € per couple, to be paid in advance
Included: Once a month, Sundays, access to the Open Practice Lab, where you can train under our supervision
Starting from Summer 2020 ==> Pre-Registration
Bring along: comfortable, flexible clothing and at least 12 jute ropes, 5 or 6 mm, 7-7.6 m long
Safety and consent * Intention to develop an exciting story * Communication through the rope * Repetition and practice of the technical principles of previous workshops * Transitions based on Kata-ashi, M-Shape, Futo-mono Yuko-tsuri and other positions * Management of suspension ropes * Exercises on creativity, speed and flow when tying in suspension * Plan B strategies: What to do in an emergency * Refining the erotic game of shame and exposure
I am a total beginner in the rope. Is the workshop suitable for me?
The ongoing course is not designed for total beginners, for beginners please see the workshop "From Zero to Patterns and Play." In order to be able to participate really intensively and also to achieve the maximum effect for you, both partners should have developed a safe routine in joint tying in our style and be able to fluidly manage even more complex suspensions.
I do not have a partner. Can I still participate?
The workshop is deliberately advertised for couples. Even if you do not have a bondage partner yet – this is Berlin! Put an Ad in the usual platforms and you will certainly find someone who wants to share the experience with you.
Is switching allowed?
Switching is not "forbidden," but the program is designed so that there will not be time to duplicate the exercises. We do not want the non-switchers be bored… As the principles are repeated in different exercises, you can of course do the exercises alternately if both partners want to learn actively.
My body is not as flexible as the models on the internet, can I still attend the workshop?
Yes. Kinbaku is the play on the limits of the individual possibilities of the person in the ropes, not the execution of fixed techniques. Important is the willingness of the partner in the rope to be in the rope for the limited time and the willingness of the partner with rope to deal responsibly with this gift. We will practice the techniques and principles in the workshop.

Wrestling Ghosts is an intimate portrait of a young mother who over two heartbreaking and inspiring years battles the traumas from her past to create a new present and future for her and her family. Armed with knowledge and compassion, she pursues new strategies to heal herself, including online counseling, EFT "tapping" and Neurofeedback. Wrestling Ghosts provides audiences a rare opportunity to bear witness to the healing process.
At each and every screening we hear that seeing what healing looks like, up close, changes lives. And without fail we are asked "how can I show this movie to my mom, my sister, my friend, etc." and we weren't satisfied with the answer we could give them. Our focus has been community and educational screenings, but not everyone can organize a screening and we are committed to reaching as wide an audience as possible! As a result we have decided to lower the barrier to access and make Wrestling Ghosts available for home-viewing for as low as $7.99.
Community and educational screenings remain our priority simply because there are so many benefits in watching Wrestling Ghosts in community. With our free discussion guide, viewers have the opportunity to share and listen to one another's experiences, discuss content and ask questions to qualified professionals, and connect with service providers. Many school districts and organizations are using the movie for professional development. One of the benefits our partners have witnessed following a screening is the enthusiastic support or buy-in from their staff for trauma-informed initiatives, often the key to successful implementation. Our partners also report that Wrestling Ghosts brings home the importance of those involved in the lives of children and their care-givers to do their own healing work. Wrestling Ghosts and the resources on our site provide an opportunity for this to become center stage and for the viewers to get a sense of what healing looks like and what to do next.
Wrestling Ghosts has been successfully screened at K-12, university counseling centers, clinics, and staff training in a variety of not for profit and governmental agencies including child welfare agencies. We are self-distributing using a grassroots and activist model and licensing fees are supporting our efforts. Our licensing fees (starting at $150) are guidelines for sustainability but our commitment is to our partners and to making the movie available as a tool and resource to raise awareness and grow compassion. As a result, no screening requests will be turned away for budgetary reasons. So please reach out if you want to share Wrestling Ghosts with your staff, colleagues, students, or community.
We look forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback on the movie if you have a chance to watch.
With gratitude for the important work you do,
Ana Joanes
Ana Joanes is a documentary filmmaker dedicated to inspiring conscious action and systemic change through film. Her previous works include Generation Meds, an exploration of our fears and misgivings about mental illness and medication, and Fresh, which celebrates the farmers, thinkers and entrepreneurs who are reinventing our food system. Ana is the mother of three children, and with Wrestling Ghosts, she hopes to contribute to a shift toward a more compassionate world.

age spots and pigmented lesions
Age spots / pigmented spots
At MediCorium the Max G hand piece of Cynosure's Icon™ aesthetic system is used for the treatment of pigment disorders. This is a powerful IPL beamer. An IPL treatment is similar to a laser treatment: With a hand piece intensive pulsed light (IPL) is applied to the treatment areas. The light impulses penetrate the skin a few millimetres deep and warm up the colour pigments, which subsequently disintegrate and are disposed of through the body's lymphatic system. As such, in a few sessions an IPL treatment can brighten up the treated areas of the skin effectively and without any downtime.
A further and even more effective treatment is RevLite SI™, the new and revolutionary Nd:Yag laser treatment.
MediCorium uses Cynosure's Q-Switched Laser, which belongs to the new generation of lasers with a unique nanosecond pulse configuration, so-called PhotoAcoustic Technology™ (PTP). These very short impulses generate a high energy density for the treatment of multi-coloured tattoos (including red colour) and permanent make-up, as well as epidermal and dermal pigmentation.
As a result of the different wave lengths the RevLite is able to safely and effectively treat a range of pigmented lesions such as age spots and pigment disorders in all skin types with minimal side effects.
Treatment information for both:
Preparation: A local anaesthetic is usually not required
Side Effects: Minimal heat development in the skin, tingling or stinging sensation, temporary redness of the skin
Aftercare: Sun protection with SPF50. Sun bathing and visits to the tanning studio should be avoided prior to and for six weeks after the laser therapy

What is a cenote?
The most missed part of a Cancun Vacation
Cancun Mexico is a great place for a vacation. Everyone knows that must do Cancun includes gorgeous beaches of turquoise waters and miles of white sand. Lots of people even know that the area features some of the best Mayan ruins like Chichen Itza and Tulum (read more about those here)…
What many people often miss is that the Cancun area is home to some of the world's most amazing cenotes!
So what is a Cenote? (pronounced see-no-tay)
Okay, what is a cenote and why should you care? Imagine all the excitement and gorgeous features involved in exploring underground caves mixed with a cool fresh water swimming hole. What you are imagining is basically a cenote! A Cancun sinkhole truly is a must see destination!
I'm no geologist, but the basic idea is that over time the type of rock prevalent in the Yucatan (limestone) gets worn away by water seeping into the ground and washing away the rock. As this process continues the rocks wear away and fresh water gathers underground. Eventually relatively large caves form and pools of water gather.
Cenote Cancun
The resultant effect is that they create beautiful cave formations and amazing swimming holes. The Yucatan Peninsula is now home to tons of cenotes. Some feature a collapsed ceiling opening them up to the sun, some have small openings letting a little bit of light in, some are completely underground, and some are perfect for scuba diving into underground tunnels. Regardless of the type, they are all worth visiting.
Cenotes near Cancun
There is no one cenote Cancun is famous for; this is because there are dozens of nearby cenotes to include in Cancun Mexico excursions. Every time I go back to Cancun it seems like a new cenote has been opened to the public.
With more and more tourists finding out about cenotes some of them are getting really crowded and harder to enjoy. Even with crowds a cenote Mexico offers is still worth a visit, but if you plan ahead or visit a similar but different cenote you may be able to relax and enjoy even more.
Cenote Tour
A cenote tour is usually you just paying admission and walking in yourself. Tour guides are available at the bigger cenotes, but I recommend passing on the guide and walking yourself down into the Cancun underwater caves.
Some people will swim and lounge about for hours to get out of the oppressive Cancun sun, while others will make a quick appearance to snap a couple pictures for Instagram.
Best Cenotes in Mexico
Trying to figure out which Cenotes to visit? Check out where we found the best Cenotes in Mexico below!
Cenotes Yucatan
Best Cenotes in the Yucatan Peninsula
Suytun Cenote (Our personal favorite)
Cenote Suytun – Tip – Show up before 10 am and you will have the place to yourself! All the tour buses arrive at 10 am.
Cenote Ik Kil (The most crowded Cenote in Mexico)
Cenote Ik Kil – This gorgeous cenote is very close to Chichen Itza. The fact that it is only an 8 minute drive from Chichen Itza makes it very easy to drop in on. Even if crowded, it is still easy to enjoy.
Cenote Zaci (Under rated Cenote)
Cenote Zaci is another one that you can easily hit on the way to Chichen Itza from Cancun. It is in the middle of the small city of Valldolid, and seems to be one that not a lot of tourist know about so you can expect less crowds.
Cenote Saamal
Cenote Saamal – This cenote is just outside of Valldolid and is located just up the road from the park that features Cenote Samula and Cenote X'keken. The roof of Cenote Saamal is open to the sky which creates little waterfalls on the sides when it rains.
Cenote Xkeken and Cenote Samula
Cenote Xkeken and Cenote Samula -These cave cenotes are located in the same park (just outside of Valladolid). They are each perfect examples of cave cenotes!
