Attractive prices for printer inks
It is known that people who have printers reach for a large number of ink when shopping. Therefore, they try to find such inks that combine very good quality with an affordable price. It should be as low as possible, however, it is important that too low a price does not reduce the quality of the carcass. Fortunately, currently available inks are available for sale, which allow for a large number of prints, but have very good, affordable prices. They can be both original inks and substitutes that allow you to make black and color prints. Therefore, it seems that if you find the highest quality carcass, you can easily buy more of them.
Sales places for printers
New printers are sold in various types of places. The most known of such stores are usually run in large cities in easily accessible places, which can be reached at any time of the day. Frequently recommended print shops are also run in large shopping centers and in smaller towns. At present, there are also such owners of stores with printers who run websites where they present their assortment. Thanks to this, they manage to reach an even wider group of clients, especially young and active customers who frequently use the Internet. It should be emphasized that such clients usually use the offer of a particular store for many years.
The widest choice of printers
Currently, the largest selection of printers is available on the Internet. That's why people who want to purchase a really original printer are eager to visit websites and browse through them for hours. A wide selection of printers is also made available through large stores with computer and printing devices. Slightly fewer printers are available in the supermarket with a department with computer hardware. However, finding a good quality store of this type allows you to get acquainted with a really wide range of printing equipment. They have sufficient quality and allow for a large number of prints without any obstacles. So you can see that people who want to buy a printer can find really rich offers for themselves.

It used to be that you just had to live with your appearance— suck it up, even if you didn't feel like your best self. Luckily, that's no longer the case. Here at Dr. Gary J. Price's office, he believes that every patient deserves to live their best life as their best self by aging gracefully. But, how can you age gracefully without going under the knife? We have a few options for you to consider.
Anti-Aging Products
Skin care can go a long way; especially when it's good skin care. To help your skin stay hydrated, protected from sun damage, and to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, invest in skin care products that contain things like a broad-spectrum sunscreen, hyaluronic acid, retinol, and vitamin A.
Botox is another great way for you to age gracefully without having to go under the knife. By temporarily relaxing the muscles across your forehead and around your eyes, Botox helps to give you a more youthful look by temporarily reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
If you feel like your skin has lost all of its elasticity, then join the aging club. Even though a loss of collagen in your skin is a normal part of the aging process, it doesn't have to be something that you just deal with. In fact, by getting dermal fillers, Dr. Price can help to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles while also adding temporarily volume to the skin. The result? A younger looking you!
You don't have to hate the aging process. In fact, you can age as gracefully as ever with the help of these and other non-invasive procedures. During your initial consultation with Dr. Price, he will go over all of these options with you as well as surgical options that you may want to consider. Are you ready to take the next steps to learn more? If so, then this article is just the thing for you. Contact us at our Guilford office today at (203) 453-6635.

Just two weeks ago, City Weekly readers voted Utah Gov. Gary Herbert the Worst Utahn in our annual Best of Utah issue. I now wonder, if the voting took place today, whether he'd again win that distinction. In the past 14 days, he's posited a locally heretical compromise (as if he has any leverage, but still) on federal and state land issues. That's new.
But Herbert also did the unthinkable. While 26 of his fellow Republican governors (plus Democrat Gov. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire, which belongs in Canada) took the position that they would not accept Syrian refugees in their states, Herbert announced that Utah would not follow that shadowy din, and Syrian families are welcome here. That categorically eliminates him from being Worst Utahn. Too late, of course, but it was a worthy gesture on Herbert's part.
Syrians have fled their own country by the hundreds of thousands this past year. Until the events in Paris this past week, Syrians had generally been regarded across Europe as being more worthy of sympathy than other Middle Eastern refugees, especially after images of Syrian children drowning in the Aegean Sea made even the Germans feel guilty. In the days following the Paris attacks, it was revealed that the bombing plot was likely hatched in Syria and that at least one of the dead attackers—or at least his passport, valid or counterfeit—had passed through a refugee checkpoint on Greek island of Leros. That was that. Syrian refugees are now considered to be terrorist threats.
If citizens of the United States are very good at something, it's that we always fall hard for manufactured enemies. Our leaders and political pundits know this. They are jingoists: "persons who brag about a country's preparedness to fight ... blustering, bellicose, or blatant 'patriots.'" Thus, the posturing, patriotic governors in 27 states say they will not accept Syrian refugees. And people cheer. And they will cheer until something blows up. And by the looks of things, something might. And if it does, chances are very slim it will be at the hands of a Syrian—refugee or otherwise.
Let's see: The United States has committed to accepting 80,000 refugees from the Middle East. Of that number, only 10,000 will come from Syria. A blip. Yet Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas, whose state is home to 2 million undocumented residents, says, "no federal official can guarantee that Syrian refugees will not be part of any terrorist activity." Yes, the irony is lost on Abbott that his fellow Republican Donald Trump wants to build a wall along the Texas border to guarantee we keep out criminal or dangerous Mexicans. Abbott suddenly worries about legal Syrians? A couple thousand new residents of the Lone Star State will not hide the crap covering Abbott's boots.
Or how about Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal? He's come out loudest and strongest against Syrian refugees, but get real: He was just a pop-off presidential prospect. Jindal, a Catholic, was raised Hindu. Wanna bet that if a person of the Hindu faith ever commits a similar crime, that Jindal would be so outspoken? Actually, you don't have to wait, for there are many recorded acts of Hindu violence against Christians in India, where Jindal's parents were born. Wouldn't you know it? Both Christians and Hindus view India's Muslim population as a larger threat to each.
But why go there? Try this 2005 sentiment instead: "Thousands of refugees were dispersed to other states, some as far away as Utah. As the refugee population disperses, it is possible that individuals with criminal records will be sent to other states—and some may resume their criminal activities." Yet, despite that sentiment and fear we were warned of, Utah warmly took in citizens left homeless from Hurricane Katrina that struck hardest in New Orleans, La., USA. How about a thank you, Bobby, you sniveling weasel?
Utah did that for Bobby's state because it was the right thing to do. Yeah, yeah, they were fellow citizens unlike those Syrians. But be honest and remember how much anti-black racial rhetoric was spread post-Katrina. Playing off of fear is always a dangerous game. While others played the race card, Utah stood up. I'd rather be a Utahn than a Louisianian.
Or a Floridian. Ted Cruz, son of a Cuban immigrant father, knows better, but ambition makes fools of us all. He foolishly claims Syrian Christians are less risk to us than Syrian Muslims. Remember the boat people of Mariel Harbor in 1980, anyone? Of the 125,000 Cuban refugees who finally reached Florida, weren't a large number of them considered to be criminals and mentally ill? American "patriots" were cruel to those Cubans. Yet, we took them in, not even asking if they were Communists. Is America worse off ? Cuba now accounts for 3 percent of all new U.S immigrants. We take the good with the bad. Bad: Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. Good: Cuban Sandwiches and Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez.
Has Gov. Doug Ducey of Arizona forgotten that his state gave birth to the Oklahoma Bomber, the Catholic Timothy McVeigh? And will Gov. Sam Brownback of Kansas please take ownership of McVeigh's born-again Christian bombing partner, Terry Nichols? Alabama gave us the Olympic Park Bomber, Eric Rudolph. Thanks, Gov. Robert Bentley. I'm more happy than ever that the Ute football team smacked your 'Bama hicks in 2009.
In our Best of Utah issue, we named the Topaz Museum as Utah's Best Historical Art Exhibit. You really should visit. And when you do, be reminded that we've been through this before, we've survived and become stronger, and that hate and suspicion are our real enemies. And, be reminded that Gary Herbert did a very good thing this week. For now, he is not our Worst Utahn.

Most people only consider to replace a pillow they have been using for years only after they experience some neck discomfort during their sleep or upon awakening. Is there a best time to decide when to replace a pillow? If you reading this article and have neck pain and wondering if your neck pain was caused by your pillow, I hope you shed some light based on my experience we see in our neck pain patients.
Many patients come in with neck pain has considered changing or have already replaced their pillow. It is not common to hear patients having owned five to ten pillows or more and still suffer from neck pain! So the million dollar question is when you have neck discomfort or pain, did the problem arise from the pillow or your neck? It may surprise you if I tell you that the problem is more often the neck that needs to be fixed first. Once the neck is better, you might find that sleeping on the same pillow is more comfortable. In short, don't go spend unnecessary money on pillows until you know the origin or cause of your neck pain.
Obviously, there comes a time when you have to replace the pillow as it is not giving your neck the proper support it needs. After a patient gets a neck adjustment or neck tune up, but the pain returns especially upon awakening, then it may be worth to consider getting a new pillow. Even if you don't have neck pain, consider replacing a new pillow if its more than one year old. There are other advantages of replacing your pillow more so for hygiene such as dust mites, allergies or stains.
Which type of pillow should your replace? Well, for the best neck support, I find a memory foam does a fantastic job, if they have not been degraded or break down. Have your even seen your running show cushion peel off without warning? Even branded memory foam such as Tempurpedic pillow will degrade. In the following video, I show you a pillow brought by one of our patients who has had neck pain.
Tests to Determine When To Replace a Pillow.
The first test most commonly described to determine when to replace a pillow is the Fold Test. Basically, what you do is to fold the neck pillow halfway. If it is very easy to do, the pillow has lost its resilience indicating the need to replace the pillow. The method or pillow fold test may not work well for memory foam or foam pillow. So I usually suggest a Pinch Test which is illustrated in the video. Interestingly, the video where I describe when to replace a pillow is a Tempur-Pedic brand, that is only slightly more than a year old by a young adult male. Hope this tip will help you make a good decision when you buy your next new pillow. By the way, pillow store owners or department stores usually put these old pillows that start to degrade on SALE. Hence, don't be surprise if most of the pillows you see in the department store fail the pillow Pinch Test.

I have been a bit behind with my book blog posts this year as I have been busy writing my new Poetry book… but have been recently trying to catch up on my middle grade novels. So, I'm VERY excited to be sharing some of my favorite middle grade novels so far of 2021 with you! There are SO many amazing novels this year, so if you have a tween looking for a new book to get lost in this summer, or are a middle school teacher looking for a new book to share with your class – I'm hoping you will find one or two titles in this list. The books this year are rich in diversity and include many novels written in verse (#ownvoicesnovel and culturally immersed adventures seem to be the trend this year!), fantasy, historical fiction, sci-fi, and contemporary fiction all layered with many important themes. Happy reading, everyone!
Red, White, or Whole – Rajani Larocca
A heartbreakingly, poignant and hopeful story written in verse. Reha is a young American Indigenous girl who feels torn between her two cultures. Her life is turned upside down when her mother is diagnosed with leukemia. The voice of this character is so believable and so relatable. Have your Kleenex handy.
Ancestor Approved – Intertribal Stories for Kids – edited by Cynthia Leitch Smith
I am SO excited about this book of short stories written by American and Canadian Indigenous authors, including local BC author, Monique Grey Smith. The short stories are perspectives of a variety of Native tweens who are all attending a major powwow in Michigan. (major text-to-text connections to the adult novel There, There by Tommy Orange!) The stories are sad, joyful, funny, mysterious – and the voices weave together beautifully to bring the pow-pow to life. A must for school libraries!
The Frog Mother – Brett D. Huson
I had no idea that this series existed – but this is the fourth in the Mothers of Xsan series – a collection of stories that connects the world to the matrilineal society of the Gitxsan people of the Pacific Northwest Interior of British Columbia. Previous books include Sockeye Mother, Eagle Mother and Grizzly Mother. This book follows the life cycle of the spotted frog and the connection the Gitxsan people have at each stage of their lives. Gorgeous illustrations. Would be a wonderful series for integrating indigenous beliefs and knowledge into an exploration of life cycles.
The Mysterious Disappearance of Aiden S. (as told to his brother) – David Levithan
If you are looking for a portal fantasy to escape in – here it is! One night, 12-year-old Aidan disappears. He and his younger brother Lucas both go to bed (they share a room), and when Lucas wakes up the next morning, Aidan is gone. Police are called and the town searches everywhere. Six days late, Aiden turns up. Where had he been? And so begins the story of twists and turns, truth and reality, fantasy and belief. Love the relationship between the two brothers.
The Last Fallen Star – Graci Kim
This new series by Graci Kim weaves Korean culture and folklore into a thrilling, fast-paced contemporary fantasy. I learned so much about Korean culture. The story is funny, magical, and explores some complex family relationships, sisterhood, and food! I loved the spunk and determination of Riley, the main character, who tells the story. I believe this will be a popular series!
Unplugged – Gordon Korman
When Jett Baranov, rich, privileged, entitled tween, is sent to The Oasis wellness camp for six weeks (think low frills, no tech, vegetarian experience), he is bored and resistant. Enter a cast of diverse characters, pranks, a mystery, and the fun begins. Short, fun summer read told through multiple voices.
The Lion of Mars – Jennifer L. Holm
What would it be like to be an Earth kid, living in a small Mars settlement in 2091, populated by just a few kids and adults? This engaging sci-fi story about 11 year old Bell, who lives on Mars at the American Mars colony explores this question as well as topics of isolation (lots of connections to Covid isolation), problem solving, and living life to the fullest. Some really great character development in this one and I like how it combined science fiction with some "deep thinking" philosophical questions.
Alone – Megan E. Freeman
Another book I read in one sitting, heart in my throat, then sobbed at the end. Twelve year old Maddie wakes up one morning to discover that her entire town has been evacuated and she's been left behind with her neighbour's dog, George (best dog character ever!) The story, told in verse in Maddie's brave voice, is harrowing, poignant, and thought-provoking. (Think contemporary version of Island of the Blue Dolphins) The language is gorgeous, with sparse text on each page – a great choice for both fluent and reluctant readers. The story was very emotional for me – sometimes quite intense but a perfect ending. (Warning – deals with the loss of an animal so be prepared) I loved everything about this book.
Starfish – Lisa Fipps
I finished this book in one afternoon. Loved it so much. It is written in verse and explores Elle's heart-breaking and inspiring journey through being overweight and bullied into a place of self-worth, standing up for herself, and claiming her right to take up space in the world. It is so inspiring, beautifully written, and had me in reaching for my Kleenex several times.
Thanks a Lot, Universe – Chad Lucas
Set in Halifax Nova Scotia, this middle-grade novel featured two extremely likeable characters – Ezra and Brian. Chapters alternate between their perspectives amidst issues related to important topics including anxiety, bullying, family, and sexuality. Love to have a new voice in Canadian middle grade novels – this one would be best suited for upper middle grades and early high school.
The Gilded Girl – Alyssa Coleman
A wonderful mix of of magic, quirkiness, enchantment, historical fiction, justice, privileges, friendship, and heart! Set in New York in 1909, this book, inspired by the classic The Little Princess, explores issues of inequality and social-economic status mixed into a fast-paced, highly visual, magical, historical fantasy. I LOVED this book and so good for many themes and discussions.
Cece Rios and the Desert of Souls – Kaela Rivera
Lots of excitement about this book and it's actually the first Latinix fantasy books I have ever read. This book is SO MUCH FUN! (Think Pokemon meets Rick Riordan) It is a story about family, community, and power, and the inherent connection between all of those things. It weaves adventure, action, magic, supernatural creatures, Latinx-based mythology, friendship, and lots of emotion into one fast-paced, spirited story! Cece is a likeable protagonist and I feel a second book coming on! (or maybe a movie??)
Stamped – Jason Reynolds and Ibram X. Kendi
The children's version of the groundbreaking bestseller Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You (available in both adult and YA), this book takes younger readers on a journey from present to past and back again. Readers will discover where racist ideas came from, identify how they impact America today, and meet those who have fought racism with antiracism. Along the way, they'll learn how to identify and stamp out racist thoughts in their own lives. Powerful and one of the best introductions to the history (and present) of race, racism and antiracism for younger readers I have read. Short, easy to read chapters would be great to prompt class discussions.
Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Boy – Emmanuel Acho
Wow. If you are looking for a great anchor book to help your younger readers better understand white privilege and racial issues – here it is! The nonfiction book is aimed primarily at white readers to better understand racial issues and should be in every school library across the country. It's an adaptation of the viral video series by Emmanuel Acho called "Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man." I would recommend using this as a class read-aloud to launch discussions rather than assign for independent reading as there is a lot to unpack. Each chapter focuses on a race issue including white privilege, microaggressions, bias, color blindness, systemic racism, the Confederate flag, etc. I would likely read one chapter at a time and then have a discussion. Such a great anchor book for Transform and the Knew-New strategies. It has a conversational tone and never feels as if it talks down to readers but OH, SUCH AN IMPORTANT BOOK!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Would love to know what books are now on your TBR pile! Please share this list with your colleagues so we can get these amazing books into the hands of all the young readers we know! Thank you!

My husband, Edward, has been a member of the Jamestown-Union
Hill Lions Club in Jamestown, N.C., for some years now. I have gone
with him to several of the club's meetings and events, and I
have noticed there is a virus that just kind of passes back and
forth from one club member to another.
Unlike most viruses, this one is not at its worst during the
winter months. Rather, one or two members will get the virus in
January, a couple more contract it around March and a few more
catch it in the spring and early summer. By August and early
September this virus is no longer a little hit-and-miss problem: By
this time it picks up a lot of steam and becomes a full-blown cloud
of black smoke – and like most influenzas it is rather contagious.
Some of our local doctors have named this virus 'Yester Year in
The virus originated years ago with Willard Moore. Willard was
somewhat of an heirloom/antique/ junk collector, but his true love
and fascination was with engines – what made them run and how he
could make them run better, smoother, or longer. Willard loved
engines, from the little hit-and-miss engines to the big
steam-powered engines that once powered everything from sawmills,
cranes and shoe factories to ice cream makers and shingle cutters.
There weren't too many types or sizes that he had not taken
apart, overhauled, put back together and added to his collection at
his Dillon Road farm.
A little over 30 years ago the Jamestown-Union Hill Lions Club,
of which Willard is a charter member, was looking for a way to
raise money to help visually and hearing handicapped people and to
help support Camp Dogwood, a special camp built just a few years
earlier for the visually impaired. Someone suggested that 'some
people out there' would pay to see Willard's collection,
and indeed some did. That was the beginning of 'Yester Year in
Yester Year offered something for all ages. Older people loved
standing around reminiscing about the good ole days, showing
outdated machinery to younger generations and sharing stories about
how Rumely OilPulls, Galloway hit-and-miss engines, or
International Harvesters operated. The younger generations were
fascinated that anything could produce power without sticking a
plug in the wall, inserting four 'C' batteries or flipping
a switch, and getting a cup of fresh apple cider straight from the
cider mill was a refreshment for all ages. The smell of cane
cooking – and knowing there would soon be fresh molasses to taste –
was always an incentive to head for the crusher and the big
In October 2000 Willard held an auction and sold off many of his
antique pieces. A lot of people thought that would be the end of
Yester Year in Motion, but 2001 brought another Yester Year and
this year, on Sept. 28, Yester Year celebrates its 30th
The show also offers blacksmithing, horse shoeing, a log sawing
contest and a flea market, and there are plenty of old machines,
engines, tractors and, yes, 'old geezers' to explain them
all. Yester Year is like a good marriage: No matter how many years
you're in it, something new and different happens every year to
keep it exciting.

Wichita Native Sheinelle Jones On Her Journey To The 'Today' Show
It's been eight months since Sheinelle Jones joined the weekend team at the "Today" show. The news anchor recently traveled back to her hometown of Wichita--on her first weekend off from the network-- to speak at the Alpha Kappa Alpha 80th anniversary banquet. KMUW's Carla Eckels talks with Jones about her journalistic beginnings, which lead to her high-profile life at NBC in New York.
On working her way to the top:
"I think sometimes people underestimate. They see you on TV with Matt Lauer and they're like, 'Oh my gosh, she just got there!' And people haven't seen me since I graduated from Heights (High School in Wichita) in 1996, but it has been a long road.
I interned here in Wichita in high school. My junior year I was at the USD259 building learning how to edit. My senior year in high school I was at Channel 12 (KWCH) interning in my little cheerleading skirt, ripping scripts and doing what they needed me to do, run teleprompter.
I went to Northwestern University and majored in journalism. My freshman year I came back and worked at KSN for free, and then my sophomore year in college I interned for the summer at BET News. The next year after that I went to Topeka, Kansas, and worked at the American Eagle at the mall to make money and rented this little apartment and interned at the CBS affiliate in Topeka. So every single summer when I was in college I made it a point to be in a newsroom somewhere and working for free.
On her humble beginnings in news:
"A lot of the kids just want to be a news anchor and want to get paid but it starts years before that. You have to be willing to work for free -- do the things others won't do. I remember when I was in college interning at one of the stations I found myself in line at a gift shop at Wesley Hospital waiting for Beanie Babies 'cause one of the reporters couldn't go get one and really wanted a Beanie Baby!
There would be lines of people and I was out in the rain like, 'How am I going to be Oprah in line getting Beanie Babies?' I was like, 'How is this going to help me?' But that's what you do; you grind."
On the best piece of advice she ever received:
"It was like, I know I want to be a news anchor, I want to be a reporter, but how do I do it, you know? And I got the best advice: Someone said, 'Ask for what you want, take what you get, and use what you get to get what you want.' And that's been my career."
On her early goals:
"There's something about, I guess as a kid, the little peacock and the logo...I just grew up kind of watching NBC, and nothing against the other stations, but I think that was top of mind for me: NBC. It was almost surreal for me to get that job at the 'Today' show; it really was.
(In) Mrs. James' 5th grade class at Gammon Elementary, we had a career day and we had to draw pictures of what we wanted to do, and I remember it was a yellow sheet of construction paper and I drew myself as a little news anchor, a little helmet hair, hoop earrings and a little box by my head and that's what I wanted to do.
Before there were vision boards, I had a vision room. I had Janet Jackson, Tevin Campbell pictures of all the stars I liked on one wall, cheerleading pictures on another, and my other wall I had the black-and-white head shots with the signatures of the local anchors. I could recite anchors of Wichita, Kansas, like people can recite NBA players. I mean, they were like my heroes!"
On what it's like to work for the 'Today' show:
It is absolutely intense. I think the people see the fun, and it is fun sometimes, but it is intensity like I've never known. (In) local news there are some people in the studio; at the 'Today' show there are a ton of people in the studio. In local news you can be pressured or you're worried about the ratings and all of that. The 'Today' show you are competing against Good Morning America and CBS This Morning. I mean, you know, the stakes are so much higher and you are a cog in the wheel. You are one of so many players...and it's pressure that comes from yourself to hold your own.
I anchored that very first weekend, and that music comes and that logo and that date scrolls across the screen and then the lights come on and there's like eight billion looking at you in the crew, and I was like, 'This is HAPPENING.' I was, like, having a moment inside."
On the show bringing her mom, Sheila Kinnard, to sing on Broadway:
"It was great to give her that experience because, you know what, my mama sacrificed a lot. When I was in college, people who know my mom--she's Ms. AKA, Ms. Link--she dropped ALL of those activities that had dues; she stopped all of that to help get me through school. Northwestern University is not cheap. I'm paying loans until this day. But she sacrificed that for me to get me through college.
So now as an adult, it was so gratifying. Fast forward to working for the 'Today' show and having them fly her to New York City and putting her up in a hotel for a night...(it) was priceless to me! Now I'm like, 'Mama, what do you need?' I want to be like an athlete buy my a house; I can't, but people, we love our mamas because our mamas have done so much for us over the years.
"My mom, you know, has a beautiful voice, so to be able to put her on that stage and let her be able to sing on Broadway--that's the beauty of working with the 'Today' show 'cause you can do stuff like that. That's when it hits me, when it's like, 'Wow.' To be able to put my mom on a stage on Broadway, for them to be able to open up the doors before the show started, and to be able to let her sing with a star (Lisa Howard)."
On visiting Wichita:
"You take things for granted. Wichita is a wonderful community and we rally around our young people and we love them to pieces and we're just good folks. I think sometimes we get bogged down in it because we think the grass is greener, but it is a beautiful city and this city made me. So many people have sewn seeds in me, and so this was a great weekend to come back and to say thank you and to smell the fresh air and to give my city a big old hug!"

Ah, the VMAs. The award show that might have seemed to drag on for ungodly lengths to us plebs, was in fact a mere pre-game for the golden geese among us. Exclusive, A-list after-parties raged long into the night across New York City, from Guess and Republic Records' Vandal bash to Drake and Rihanna's Up&Down rave. No spot, however, was more exclusive than the private soirée at Pasquale Jones, where the likes of Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Kim, and Kanye toasted to themselves and then each other. What a night, what a life. Click through for all the best post-VMAs moments you missed.

According to Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks rookie Luka Doncic is a better player than the future Hall of Famer was at 19 years old.
Nowitzki says Doncic's court vision and passing at such a young age is something he's never seen during his 20-year NBA career.
.@swish41 On @luka7doncic: He's Incredible; Better Than Me At 19: https://t.co/TPA7mEUIU0 pic.twitter.com/GvXqaEuzJM
— 105.3 The FAN (@1053thefan) September 11, 2018
Dirk adds, however, that he doesn't want to put undue pressure on the rook.
Per 105.3 The Fan:
"Yeah, he's been here now for a week," Nowitzki said. "He's scrimmaged every day and works hard. I'm really liking what I'm seeing. He's incredible with the ball for a big guy. He's unbelievable in pick and roll play. His court vision is already unbelievable. I couldn't believe what I saw from a 19/20-year-old. He's a good shooter when he has time and I think he's going to be great for us for a long long time.
"Obviously, I don't want to put too much pressure on him, either. But coming over from a different country, I went through the same thing 20 years ago. It's tough. You have to adjust to a lot of things. For me, that took a whole year. That year was really really tough.
"He's an incredible talent. His court vision and passing for his size at his age is something I've never seen in my 20 years."
Is he better than you when you were 19?
"Oh yeah. I could shoot a little bit but I never had the court vision … the savviness that he brings to the game. Just the way he already reads the pick and roll … all the stuff like Chris Paul and these guys do … He's going to be fun to watch especially with bigs like DeAndre (Jordan) and Dwight (Powell) rolling to the rim … He's going to pick defenses apart and it's going to be fun to watch."

With Christmas Eve less than 20 days away no doubt you are wondering what to get your new parent friends for Christmas or perhaps your other half…
An integral part of my childhood and teen years was the NOW compilation albums.
I joined the party at NOW (that's what I call music) 13
which contained such hits as
A Groovy Kind of Love
He ain't heavy (he's my brother) and, the excellent
Don't Worry, be Happy.
Well- what about this for an idea…
Now that's what I call parenting.
REM -Everybody hurts
This relates to the labour itself and, in later months the unfamiliar pain of having your eye gauged out by a child grabbing onto your face playfully.
Cat Stevens- The first cut is the deepest this clearly relates to the episiotomy. Oh no love- you won't need one- you'll just sneeze your baby out…I'm talking about other people.
Aladdin & Jasmin- A Whole New World.
No turning back now…it's all change. Forever.
Sister Sledge- We are family
Because dudes, that's what you are now!
Coldplay- Yellow
Jaundice is more common than you realise people. Don't sweat it.
The Ramones-Baby I love you.
(Less at 4:45am when you are bawling your head off, but never the less- I love you, OK?)
Bon Jovi- Sleep when I'm dead
You are either awake because your baby won't sleep or awake wondering why they are so quiet.
Radiohead- Creep
How you will now move around the house when your little cherub is resting. You may also take to angry shushing and fingers on lips signs.
Absolutely futile.
Utterly pointless, they will wake as soon as they hear your ass hit the seat.
Arcade Fire- Keep the car running
This relates to a couple of new parent issues…either having to take the baby out in the car to get them to sleep or, having the car running for approx 30minutes while you run in and out of the house getting the serious amount of kit you now need every time you go out!
Pato Banton- Baby come back
For bad parents- this refers to the time they roll off the bed and are sandwiched between a headboard and wall, for better parents it refers to your über advanced child crawling very early and wanting to explore; constantly.
Areosmith- Dude looks like a lady
For moments like this!
The Drifters- There goes my Baby
For when your little one starts crawling, starts nursery and, starts needing you less *sob/sigh*
Breathe Owl Breathe- Swimming (I'd never heard of it either- thank god for Google!)
For occasions like this…
The Black eyed peas- Shut up just shut up, shut up.
For situations like this…or this.
Frank Sinatra- That's life
Because, unless you live in a fairy land- you will experience situations like this (it can't just be us- can it?!)
Annie Lennox- Why (why, why, whyyyyyyy)
This refers to you utter feelings of helplessness when your child is crying and you have no freaking clue why!! Not. A. Scooby.
I have trawled the Internet for tracks called
Jesus Christ, give me the drugs
Crayon on the carpet and crackers on the wall
I am a shell of a person. Waaaaaa haaaaaa and
Let me pee alone
But alas could not find them…
What would you have on your playlist?

This is one for the WTF? Category if I had one. Turns out the father of heavyweight prospect Tyson Fury, Mr. "Gypsy" John Fury is going to jail.
His crime? It seems that Mr. Fury fought himself in a fight with one Oathie Sykes at a car auction. He shoved his finger in Sykes' right eye and gouged it out.
Moments before he did this, "Gypsy" John Fury declared himself to be the "toughest man in the country." Now that is a bad ass move.
Turns out the elder Fury was a heavyweight prospect himself at one point in his life and earned an 8-4 record over a professional career that lasted from 1987-1991 (with a brief comeback bid in 1995.) The closest he came to making headlines was against Henry Akinwande in 1991 and Fury was stopped in the third.
The following is an excerpt from the Manchester Evening News, describing the court testimony.
Choking back tears, Fury – of Moss Lane, Wilmslow – begged the judge for mercy after admitting wounding Mr Sykes with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
"I'm worried about my son," he said. "His boxing career is on the line."
Speaking of the victim, he added: "If I could give my own eye to him to get back to my children I would do – I'm begging you for my life."
Mr Sykes told court that he believed Fury wanted to completely blind him in the attack on the morning of July 14 last year.
"It was like he was trying to pull his finger into my brains through my socket," he said. "I was screaming, 'Please stop, you're hurting me.'
"After that he tried to take my other eye – he tried to blind me, sir, not once he tried to blind me, twice."
Mr Sykes told the court he had gone to British Car Auctions at Belle Vue to buy his 17-year-old son Buddy his first van when John Fury approached him with his 'chest up'.
The two men had been pals but had a violent bust-up over a bottle of beer during trip to Cyprus in 1999.
When they met at auction Mr Sykes claimed Fury asked him: "What about me and you finishing that fight?"
The victim claimed that he said 'I don't want no trouble' and Mr Fury replied: "I'm the best man here in the auction, I'm the best man in the country."
Mr Sykes added: "He meant that he could beat any man at the auction, he's the best man at fighting."
The pair traded punches, lurching between cars, before Fury grabbed Mr Sykes by his shoulder-length hair and gripped him in a headlock.
"He was pushing his hand in my face," said Mr Sykes. "It was his finger, it went in my eye, in the corner and he wouldn't stop, he was like gouging and poking and twisting and poking, all of a sudden I heard this sound, a clicking like, a popping noise and when he took his hand away I realised blood was in his hand, a lot of blood."
The attack, which Mr Sykes said he 'thought would never end' was witnessed by scores of car-buyers.
Mr Sykes' teenage sons Buddy, and 13-year-old Jesse, saw the 'awful aftermath' after going to the cafe to get a drink.
Fury was arrested a month later and admitted the offence, saying he was 'a man of honour' who was willing to accept responsibility.
But he denied that he had meant to deliberately blind the victim in what had merely been a 'hard contest'.
He claimed that the victim had bitten him on the cheek, and had been accidentally injured when he pulled his face away.
This meant the two men had to give evidence in court before Judge Michael Henshell.
Fury said the brawl had started out as a fair 'fight between travelling people' before Mr Sykes family waded in, leaving him 'frightened for my life'.
"If I was going to do what he said I done to him it would have been a lot worse than that," he said. "I'm a not a feather-duster man."
Fury said that Mr Sykes had targeted him 'to make a name for himself' knowing that he was 'out of shape'.
But Mr Sykes denied it had been a 'straightener' – an organised fight between two grudging parties – and told the judge 'what John Fury did was wrong'.
His son Buddy, himself an amateur boxer, said his father suffered a 'savage beating', and his 13-year-old brother, Jesse, also gave evidence in his dad's favour.
Judge Henshell ruled against Fury's account of how the victim was injury as 'entirely unconvincing'.
Defending the father-of-six, Michael Levy said while fighting was a 'way of life' in Fury's community, he was not a violent man, but someone dedicated to his family and the career of his 'extremely accomplished' son, who plans a world title challenege.
Sentencing, Judge Henshell said Fury had been 'cold-blooded' in inflicting the 'catastrophic injury'.
A spokesman for the CPS said: "This was a sustained and unprovoked assault that led to a man losing an eye.
"The fact the root of this dispute which originated more than 12 years ago was so trivial only serves to highlight the senseless nature of the attack."
The elder Fury should have gone into MMA in the early days…

75 years later, Women's Abruzzese Club granddaughters embrace Italian tradition
In the 1940s, fresh off a life-changing move across the world, a handful of women met at a neighbor's home in Binghamton.
They passed out cups of coffee and chatted about the day, a casual gathering of women bonded by a common thread: Each of them were immigrants who'd left their homes in the Abruzzo region of Italy and sought connection in an unfamiliar environment.
Meeting at each other's homes around Binghamton's Seventh Ward neighborhood, this group grew to become the Women's Abruzzese Club of Binghamton, an organization celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.
While times have changed — one member recalled how the group's founders' typical day might start with a full load of laundry, then preparing a host of baked goods and somehow managing to then put on a clean dress and go grab a cup of coffee with friends — the descendant generations of the group's founders hold tight to their ethnic traditions.
"These women were fantastic," said past president Connie Capani, who's been a member for 30 years. "I don't know how they did it."
A look to the past
An anniversary celebration held in October at Traditions at the Glen in Johnson City begins with Bellinis. Color-coded paper programs from past events, spaghetti dinners and banquets cascade along a long table.
At the opposite end of the room, some of the around 60 members whose mothers and grandmothers were also part of this club gather around dozens of photos and newspaper clippings pinned up on display boards.
"This was when we used to do pageants," Pam Previti says as she points to a black-and-white photo of herself as a child contestant.
There are also articles clipped about the group's many spaghetti dinners.
In the beginning, everyone made their own sauce at home, then they served it all together at the site of the event and raised money for the club and charitable organizations. More recent dinners have supported causes like Mercy House of the Southern Tier, Shriners Hospitals, Danielle House and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
"We try to do something for the community also," said club president Tina Walls. "It's not just for us."
They've sent packages of cookies, jellies and clothing to servicemen overseas for Christmas, led Catholic pilgrimages and every year marched in the Columbus Day Parade down the streets of Binghamton. You'll also find them selling Italian cookies outside Boscov's as part of the accompanying Italian festival.
"We get together, and we have good times," Previti said.
A new social club
It's less likely to find a member who's a recent immigrant from Italy these days. Rather, the common thread tying current members together is the tradition of their mothers and grandmothers.
"Pretty much everybody is a second or third generation," Walls said.
So they get together once a month and have coffee at St. Mary of the Assumption Church in Binghamton, at the heart of the neighborhood where their mothers and grandmothers lived.
They share baked desserts and chat about the next event their planning — the club will gather at Nirchi's for a Christmas party Dec. 2 and gather donations for a charitable cause.
They make mountains of spaghetti and tomato sauce for fundraising banquets, and if a member hasn't mastered the art of making meatballs, her fellow members might host "Meatball School" — it was a joke, Previti says, but she did get a certificate for passing.
Unlike their grandmothers, Binghamton has always been home for today's members of the Women's Abruzzese Club. Their topics of conversation and daily concerns are not the same as those women who met in their living room for coffee 75 years ago.
But they continue to meet, recruit new members and embrace their family's heritage.
"It's carrying on the tradition," Capani said.

The mystery didn't last long: Microsoft is the company behind the proposed $700 million data center near Des Moines, Iowa.
"Project Mountain" is an expansion of Microsoft's existing data center in West Des Moines, pushing the company's investment in the region to the $1 billion range, says Debi Durham, director of the state agency in charge of economic development. The Iowa Economic Development Authority board approved $20 million in tax credits for the project.
The company already employs around 50 people in Iowa and plans to add at least 24 more for the new data center.
Microsoft had originally purchased a plot of land big enough for the expansion, according to the Des Moines Register, which first reported the news.
The Des Moines area has long been a finance and insurance hub and serves as the headquarters for companies such as Wells Fargo, ING Group, Principal Financial Group and AvivaUSA. Now it's becoming a significant hub for data centers. Facebook announced a $1.5 billion data center in Altoona, Iowa last April, and Google already has a data center about two hours away in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Last year the Register reported that 3-4 companies were evaluating the area for potential data centers.
Like other popular sites for massive new data centers, such as rural Oregon and North Carolina, Iowa offers tax incentives, inexpensive land and cheap energy. "The biggest issue for these companies is the cost of energy," says Durham. "We have natural energy resources that are nationally competitive." Iowa doesn't charge a tax on electricity, which provides a very large savings to these companies. She says these energy tax incentives were originally created for manufacturing companies, which are still the biggest employers in the state. She also points out that 20% of the state's energy comes from wind. Facebook, for example, cited availability of wind power as a major reason it chose Altoona for its data center.

Probably intended for the sitter's husband, Paul Cobb Methuen [1752-1816], Corsham Court, Wiltshire, but possibly neither finished nor delivered. Possibly (Mrs. Gainsborough sale, Christie's, London, 10-11 April 1797, 1st day, no. 12);[1] Caleb Whitefoord [1734-1810]. Paul Sanford Methuen, 3rd baron Methuen [1845-1932], Corsham Court; purchased c.1893 by (Wallis & Son, London); sold 1893 to Peter A.B. Widener, Elkins Park, Pennsylvania; inheritance from the Estate of Peter A.B. Widener by gift through power of appointment of Joseph E. Widener, Elkins Park; gift 1942 to NGA.
Technical Summary
The very fine, tightly plain-woven canvas was originally rectangular in format but was cut down to an oval size at a later date. Subsequently the painting was enlarged again, once more to a rectangular format, by means of lining onto a rectangular auxiliary canvas. Because the oval composition was slightly below the center point of this new rectangular format, the painting was later cut down along the bottom edge, and perhaps relined. The ground of the original canvas is white, thinly applied; a thicker white ground was applied to the added canvas, masking the weave. The original painting was executed thinly and fluidly with slight impasto in the highlights of the pearls and dress. The paint surface has been abraded overall, severely in the feathers, and the impasto has been flattened slightly during lining; there are no major losses. The thick natural resin varAnish has discolored yellow to a considerable degree.

ROTI CANAI TRANSFER ROADWhat is Malaysian without nasi lemak or roti canai, right? Haha. One of the most famous roti canai is located at the Transfer Road. The usual roti canai is eaten with the simple curry or kuah dal, but this time we had the roti canai with chicken curry (I think) but not like the normal ones. The thin-and-garing roti canai dipped into the special kuah mmmmmm 'twas really delicious, the best roti canai I'd ever eaten so far! Typical Ardilla, one is never enough, I ordered another piece of roti canai hehe.

WHEELER'S CAFEJust down the road in the Love Lane, near the hotel where we were supposed to check in, there's a cafe called Wheeler's Cafe. While waiting for the time to check in, we stopped by at the cafe and had some coffee to freshen up our body. Orang kata, mengopi sat. Not really a coffee lover, I think my coffee was really, really pahit though it was how a cup of coffee should taste like haha. I put a few packets of sugar and creamer, but nahh the taste was still the same. I should have bought like Tiara's because her coffee was sweet and not really coffee-ish, if I'm not mistaken it was caramel mo... okay forget it, I forgot its name haha.
UNIQUE PENANG ART GALLERYDah siap minum, poopoo apa semua kat cafe tu (MashaaAllah perangai haha), still got some time and to not wasting it, we entered the Unique Penang Art Gallery which is in the Love Lane as well. It is a shop where they sell painted postcard, but it's not like any other places that you buy a postcard, put a stamp and put in the mailbox. The unique thing about this shop is they provide a service to send postcards in the future! Ikr, it's cool! You pick a postcard, write everything you want in that postcard (they provide some colour pens and variety cute stamps), put back the postcard into its plastic and write when you wanna that postcard to be sent! Boleh lah tulis kat future self or best friends ke. Kalau tulis kat future husband bahaya sikit, mana tahu kalau jodoh dengan orang lain hmm this is awkward.. hahaha. While we were writing, the owner of the shop gave us some nutmeg juice (jus buah pala), yelah dari tadi muka kehulu kehilir mencari postcard hehe.

PENANG CLAN JETTIESAfter praying and taking a short nap, the four of us packed our essential things and went to the Clan Jetties, which is located straight down from Lebuh Chulia. There used to be 7 jetties, but 1 had been destroyed by fire. Each jetty is named after a Chinese clan and these water villages have been there over a century! You have to be careful when walking on the lantai papan, though they're still strong, jangan lah pula duk berlari lari atas tu haha.
We moved on to Armenian Street aka Lebuh Armenian. I really love how they call Lebuh this Lebuh that because the only lebuh I knew before this was lebuhraya haha. At Armenian Street is where most of the street arts can be found. We parked our car (aceh sejak bila jadi 'our car' entah) at one place and then YOLO jalan kaki pi sana sini ikut google map haha. We passed by Masjid Kapitan Keling. Masjid Kapitan Keling was used to be the state mosque of Penang and it was named after the head of Indian Muslim community who lived there around 200 years ago. Oh yeah, before I forgot, we tried the famous ais kepal there! Susah rupanya nak makan ais kepal ni, siap sampai tertumpah tumpah. Try it if you come here, at least when someone asks you what is ais kepal then you know what it is.

PASEMBOR AT GURNEY DRIVEHave you tried pasembor before? Pasembor is like a (fried) yongtaufoo without the soup or sauce + kuah rojak haha. We went to a pasembor stall in Gurney Drive. It was my first time trying pasembor and immediately fell in love on the first bite, but I dislike the telur sotong, ugh. The interesting part of this pasembor here is pakcik tu nyanyi siap pusing pusing time tengah prepare the pasembor! Haha comel je. Then, before having dinner (tak tahu lah pasembor ni nak kata makan apa), we shopped clothes in the Gurney Plaza first. I only packed clothes for one night, so nak tak nak kenalah beli.
CHAR KUEY TEOW SANY, BAYAN LEPASMy stomach was growling, telling me that it was hungry. Google showed us some of the best char kuey teow in Penang and we chose Char Kuey Teow Sany in Bayan Lepas. Nisa ordered the double char kuey teow, Tiara and Afar - the usual ones and I ordered the special char kuey teow (with extra prawns). The perks of having low peptide YY (which sends signal to the brain that you're already full and reduces one's appetite), I ordered another place of special char kuey teow haha.
We tried to find the roti kaya that we had yesternight but unfortunately, it wasn't there. Balik lah ke hotel dengan perasaan hampa tak dapat roti kaya :'( haha.
End of Day 2.

How Much Could Westley Really Survive In 'The Princess Bride'?
"There's a big difference between MOSTLY dead and all dead."
Our Movie Mythbusters series answers the age-old question, "Okay, but could that actually happen in real life?"
As its plot uncoils, "The Princess Bride" proves to be a sadistic flick. Hidden among the foliage of comedy, adventure, fantasy and romance is the brutal pattern of one character's incessant punishment: Westley.
He's punished in all his iterations: As Farm Boy, he's stripped of a name and consigned to manual labor. In his training to become the Dread Pirate Roberts, he's threatened with death each night before bed. As the Man in Black, he's put through a trilogy of physical challenges, only to wind up being pushed down a steep hill into a swamp filled with lethal terrors. And as Westley, he's captured and thrown into an actual torture chamber.
So how would a real-life Westley fare against the constant punishment? Let's find out.
"His true love is marrying another tonight, so who else has the cause for ultimate suffering?" -Inigo Montoya
Cliffs Of Insanity
The first of three physical challenges against Vizzini's crew, Westley's climb up the Cliffs of Insanity always struck me as a little…fantastic. It also might be the easiest to test, mathematically.
According to Guinness Book of World Records, the greatest "height" climbed on a five-meter rope in one minute is 27.8 meters. Translated: A guy climbs up and down the rope for 60 seconds as many times as he can, without using his feet.
Ireland's Cliffs of Moher was the filming location for the Cliffs of Insanity. The Cliffs of Moher are 214 meters at their highest point. But it stands to reason that Vizzini wouldn't have chosen the highest point — he didn't expect to be followed by anybody from Florin. So, using the Cliffs' lowest point, we can assume Westley had to climb just 120 meters.
Dividing 120 meters by 27.8 meters yields 4.57. That figure represents the number of minutes Westley would have to maintain his climbing — not easy, but not necessarily impossible. Remember: Westley only has to free climb (without feet) for part of the way. Once he reaches about two-thirds of the way up, he begins to scale the cliffs by walking up the rock face and pulling himself up with the rope.
You can also compare a picture of record-holder Marcus Bondi (below) to Westley's physique in the clip and see that they're of roughly the same build. Marcus is not noticeably huger than Westley.
Another point: If we're going to accept that Andre the Giant can make this climb saddled with three other bodies, Westley's feat should seem easy-peasy by comparison.
The Chatty Duel
This is my favorite film duel ever. But the question isn't whether it's a good duel — the question is whether somebody with several years' training (Westley) could best a lifelong swordsman.
So what does it take to be good at fencing? Is it a ya-got-it-or-ya-don't sport? According to Slate writer Emily Yoffe, not so much. Writes Yoffe:
"The problem was fencing called for three skills I lack: the ability to think strategically, master arcane rules, and make your hands and feet move independently. But I had one quality I thought might overcome these deficits: an endless supply of free-floating hostility. Unfortunately, it turns out, as with much of life, getting incensed doesn't get you anywhere in fencing."
Later in the film, Inigo himself admits that the Man in Black is a better strategist than he. And Inigo is, if nothing else, a bag of free-floating hostility. Those facts alone make Westley's victory seem totally plausible.
There's also the Malcolm Gladwell theory that mastering any skill takes 10,000 hours. Westley was away from Buttercup for five years before returning as Dread Pirate Roberts and fighting Inigo. If we go by Gladwell's rule, Westley would have had to practice 5.5 hours per day to achieve fencing mastery. (10,000/5 = 2,000. 2,000/365=5.47.) No days off, nearly six hours a day. Seems unlikely that he would've hit the full 10k hours — but then again, Westley has several advantages here that Inigo does not:
- He was trained by one of the most feared violence-mongers around.
- Wonderful strategist.
- He has more chips on the table in this fight — Inigo doesn't much care what happens to Buttercup. By his own admission, he's doing this for the paycheck. Westley, however, is in this for love.
Fighting the Giant
Westley defeats Andre the Giant in hand-to-hand combat. His method? The Rear Naked Choke. It's an actual, real-world martial arts move that cuts off blood to the brain by pinching an artery in the neck, resulting in unconsciousness. Totally doable.
The Battle of Wits
Iocane powder: Odorless, tasteless, dissolves instantly in liquid. Could Westley really have built up immunity to the stuff and survived his laced cup of wine?
In theory, sure. Snake handlers often inject themselves with sublethal doses of venom to build up tolerance. This real-world practice, called mithridatism, supports Westley's claim that he's spent years getting his svelte pirate body accustomed to the deadly Australian compound.
Drink up, Dread Pirate.
The Fire Swamp
The three terrors of the Fire Swamp are flame spurts, lightning sand, and R.O.U.S. (I don't believe they exist.)
The flame spurts and large rodents don't deserve much mythbusting — anybody with good reflexes and a sword can dodge flames or kill rats. What I'm interested in is the lightning sand: a super-fast sinkhole that swallows a person up. Westley dives into the quicksand to save Buttercup and is gone for…just 30 seconds.
I went to a primary source for this one. Can a person hold his breath for 30 seconds? (Please pause while I try to hold my breath for 30 seconds.) Yes. Apparently so.
The Pit of Despair
I've mulled and mulled about how to mythbust this one. The truth is: There's no real-life analog to a magical torture device that uses suction cups to suck days, months or decades off someone's life.
But if we're going to accept that such a machine exists within this fictional universe, we've also got to accept the existence of Miracle Max. So could Westley survive the Pit of Despair? Probably not. That is, not until Billy Crystal shoves a magic malt ball covered in chocolate down his throat.
The Takeaway
A real-life Westley might be able to scale the cliffs, best the Spaniard, beat the giant, and outfox the Sicilian. And the Fire Swamp is no problem — not that anybody's going to be setting up a summer home there, mind you. The only hiccup in the movie's unrelenting abuse of Westley is the Pit of Despair — but a real-life Westley wouldn't have to worry about that, anyway. Given that it is, you know, magic.

Simple basic advice is often the sort that we remember. Before you get to the airport remove any old stickers or tags from your luggage, don't identify yourself to the crowds as a frequent traveller. Frequent travellers have a number of potential problems and if at all possible you want to hide this fact from…
On top of the world. Well not quite - its no Everest but it felt good and what a view across the English countryside.I spend most of my time either in front of a pc screen, running situational awareness workshops, coaching self defence or martial arts.

Tip of the week - How you get in and out of your car can leave you vulnerable to assault or robbery.In my 3 step system transitions are always considered but they are what most people forget or brush over.That change between two known states is a time of significant risk. With one leg inside and one outside of the car and the persons thoughts already moving onto the next part of their day they are more vulnerable than they need be.Instead of this which is the normal method most adopt try sitting 1st with both legs facing out and then swinging both into the vehicle together.It allows your alertness and situational awareness to remain active and enables you to employ both legs to kick off any assailant with you getting trapped half in the vehicle.#situationalawareness #people #assault #safety ...

To slow my friend you already are dead from first shoot
Looks fun
Tip of the day - Lock your car door.When you stop at the lights or in traffic if your central locking is off then anyone can gain access to you or anyone else in your car.Imagine being stuck in traffic with a young child in the back when someone suddenly opens the rear door and takes them.Imagine pulling up at the lights and someone opening the door and getting in the passenger seat holding a knife pointing at you.Imagine when you cut someone up while driving and in their rage they get out with a hammer.Forget the old stories of requiring the doors to be open following an accident. Modern locks, central locing and crumple zones all helped make that no where near as important as your security.This is all part of situational awareness and keeping you, colleagues and family safe.#security #training #situationalawareness ...

In Brazil you don't have to stop at a red light at night if the road is clear. I was in a taxi once and the driver would always approach red lights slowly so no need to stop. Maybe same in some other countries?
Attending a training course today but its scheduled for friends over the water, EST not BST (time) so took the opportunity to boost the brain and body beforehand.Walking is for me a great way of escaping life giving me time to regenerate.

Situational awareness training ensures your people know how to stay safe.This kind of training fits perfectly in the corporate environment and is often much more suitable than self defence training.Although I provide both I find self defence training works best when people have regular sessions over a period of time. People underestimate the ability of most violent people to be good at what they do, deliver violence at an intensity you have never witnessed before.Never underestimate your opponent.#people #staysafe #training ...

I'd like to talk to you about self-defence, and situational awareness. As you can see, around me, is one of my martial arts academies where I teach people sports such as MMA, Boxing and MuayThai kickboxing as well as self-defence and edged weapons training primarily for security staff or contractors. Most of the people who approach me from the corporate sector ask for a self-defence workshop and I have a background in corporate, so I understand, a normal working day understand, working from home, working in the office, travelling on business. However, what they are really after is ensuring the safety of their people and making their people aware of what's going on around them. The easiest way to do that and probably the most effective for the majority of people is something we describe as situational awareness. It's understanding your environment, who's around you and the risks that are likely to be there. How to identify, manage, and plan what's going to be around and, how you can overcome that. Also understanding the transitions between each. In a workshop by explaining issues I have come across I get people to bring their stories to the group because I don't think I've run a workshop where people haven't had experiences that fit perfectly within the context of the training. Often people who are in the room and work with each other every day are not aware of the issues that person has had. It could be during their work life, a previous career or outside of the working environment, but bringing those into the discussion makes it relevant to people and they can see themselves in that situation. That is what makes it relevant to them. That is far better than just being lectured to, which is the most boring thing in the world What I am after is getting people involved and then showing them the tool set that they can use time and time again, to understand and manage their risks. It's called situational awareness. It's probably what most people would think of as avoiding conflict, avoiding confrontation and to me, that's key.Self-defence is when all of that has gone wrong. But the attackers often have years and years of experience and they are experts in what they do. So it is much better if you can avoid that conflict and confrontation, and you've got all of this that you could do beforehand. And that I believe is the the key to situational awareness. #people #security #hr #conflictmanagement ... See MoreSee Less
