With Degree Show Two: Design coming to a close today, we take a look at our students' final projects and the inspirations behind them.
Performance artist and MA Performance Design and Practice student Jeroen Bloemen is interested in the potential for constructing identities through social media. Under the collective alias Jerome Les Fleurs, he stages different virtual identities, created through one single body, costumes and glitter. Examining the contemporary neo-narcissism fuelled by technology and glorified nostalgic visions of fame and fortune, Bloemen's final project is an exploration of the post-modern self. For his work at Degree Show Two: Design, over the course of six hours, Jerome Les Fleurs transitioned from one identity to another, inhabiting each one gradually and discretely. Here he talks us through five key influences for his identity driven performative practice.
1. The Audience
Art should be created not just for an "art crowd" but for everyone. Layers should not be added to make a work more complex but to make it clearer. In order to communicate ideas, concepts, statements to an audience I try to acknowledge them in the very early stages of my creative process. Often I think: 'Would my parents understand this?'
2. Identity
As identity becomes more fluid, as it becomes something that you can create for yourself, it is also increasingly one of the most important topics in my artistic practice. In a broader sense, identity tends to dominate political as well as online debates. It is often a central theme in films, exhibitions and performances. As identity is no longer accepted as given, it raises a lot of questions, and with the popularity of social media the potential for constructing personal identities becomes even more amplified. So, the question is not just who am I, but who are you?
3. Instagram
This particular platform fascinates me because of its superficiality. Instagram is the perfect example of a visible outlet for contemporary identity transformations. It allows for the opportunity to randomly select imagery — shot by yourself or carefully stolen from others — to post to your own Instagram profile. It allows people to show the good bits, leaving out the bad ones — creating an identity profile like a brand would do. Through Instagram, I can create a narcissistic superficial me that lives the life of a star.
4. Cliché
Discretely using and abusing clichés is a technique I employ to engage a broad audience — signifiers that immediately evoke an emotional response without the obstruction of symbols.
5. Cindy Sherman
Cynthia Morris Sherman (born January 19, 1954) is an American photographer and film director, best known for her conceptual portraits. She explores identity through costume, cliché and photography, and so is a big inspiration to me. Sherman is extremely skilled at making statements that are clear, communicative and provocative.

"I will put my spirit within you." Ezek. 36. 27
A. M. Toplady (from the German) 8.7.
Holy Ghost, dispel our sadness,
Pierce the clouds of nature's night;
Come, thou Source of joy and gladness,
Breathe thy life, and spread thy light.
Come, thou best of all donations,
God can give, or we implore!
Having thy sweet consolations,
We on earth can wish no more.
Author of the new creation,
Bid us now thy influence prove;
Make our souls thy habitation;
Shed abroad the Saviour's love.

Oranges and tangerines are suddenly in season and the farmers' markets are bathed in their smell and color. I remember, à propos of previous post's bitching about birthday and Christmas excess, my mother shaking her head at the riot of insane shopping and spending and spoiling of children (because she too had succumbed; how better can capitalism manipulate you than through your children?) and going about the living room Christmas morning collecting wrapping paper and mountains of horrible plastic packaging, mumbling about how: "On New Year's Day* we'd get a pair of socks…maybe an orange." And while her half of the family had moved from her natal village of Pesta north to Jiannena, another branch, to which she was very close, had settled in the southern Epirote city of Arta, a very pleasant town, the mediaeval capital of the Despotate of Epiros ** and therefore full of beautiful Byzantine churches, which lies in the region's coastal lowlands and is surrounded by one gigantic, heavenly citrus orchard like the Huerta of Valencia or parts of lower Andalusia, so it shouldn't have been too hard to get more than just one orange. But there was no spoiling the children then and in Jiannena one orange was probably expensive enough.
And I'd love to know whose great idea it was to plant orange trees along many of the streets of the city. These are bitter oranges, known as nerantzia (obviously same root as naranja and I would say sounds Persian but is probably Arabic) often called Seville oranges in Britain, and they can only be eaten in marmelades and jams — in Greece, either whole and when still green, or in curled slices of the orange peel…my favorite… Don't put it in front of me; I could eat gallons of it in a matter of days.
But since there's a limit to how many candied oranges a nation can consume, most of them end up fallen on the street, where they get squashed and can be dangerously slippery, but whose rotting smell is not entirely unpleasant.
The compensation is in the early spring when the trees bloom and — while it would otherwise be a sin to compare such an ugly to such a beautiful city — Athens smells just like Seville.
* Greek children, and only children, used to get their presents on New Year's Day, and they were brought by Saint Basil of Caesarea (Kayseri) in Cappadocia. I don't know why, since he was a theologian saint and had no gift-giving traditions associated with him — probably just because January 1st is his feast day — and I don't even know what people here do now.
** The Despotate of Epiros was one of the independent Greek successor states, along with Nicaea and Trebizond, of the dismembered Byzantine Empire that emerged after the Frankish conquest, sack and destruction of Constantinople in 1204, under the rule of one branch of the Doukases, I think, but later also under a motley crew of other Greeks, Serbs, Albanians and Norman Italians. It rejoined a reconstituted Romania, or Byzantine Empire (below), at some point after 1261 when Constantinople was retaken by the Laskarids/Palaeologans of Nicaea. Trebizond, the region known as Pontus in Greek, remained independent.

Anderson soccer tops St. Xavier in double overtime to reach regional final
MONROE – Like its district championship win the game prior, Anderson needed a golden goal in double overtime to beat St. Xavier 2-1 in the 97th minute of a Division I regional semifinal Wednesday night at Monroe High School.
"I hope the boys realize that what they're doing is incredibly special and it doesn't happen for everyone. It's been a joy to go on this ride with them," said Anderson coach Adam Jones.
The conditions were level with the magnitude of the match. Cold, wind and rain pierced the pitch without fail or hesitation, much like the young men on each side in orange and blank and white and blue.
Two minutes into the second overtime, Anderson senior Joey Buscani pushed down the left flank on a motivated run, then dipped back into the middle of the field between two defenders and then veered back out left to create some space.
Buscani's left foot found the sweet spot, his favorite spot – the far post. His shot kissed the inside of the post and angled back into the net. His teammates mobbed him as the Redskins put their stamp on an 18th consecutive win.
"We worked in practice pretty tirelessly on flank play and we knew that they isolated on the flank one (verse) one," said Jones. "So, with Joey, I got on him early and I benched him because he didn't go line when I thought he should have. We had a conversation and it looks like a good coaching move putting him back on the left and what does he do? He cuts center which is exactly why I benched him and then it becomes the game-winner, so sometimes the players know a lot better than the coaches.
"That's what Joey did. He went inside, he went back outside and he got a good hit across the frame. Joey's been huge for us not only as a goal scorer but he's kind of the heartbeat of the team. I'm really happy he has this memory for the rest of his life."
Buscani said, "He wanted me to take it down line, that was our whole game plan was to take it down line. I cut in, I don't even know why I cut in but normally in practice I cut in and back out because I'm a lefty.
"I always aim for the back post every time I shoot it."
This time last season, Anderson (20-1-0) lost in a regional semifinal to Springboro, so they leaned on that heartache and experience.
The only thing making the conditions slightly bearable was the chance for at least one more match, a spot in the regional championship, one of just eight Division I teams left in the state.
The pace was frenetic all night. The field looked like a pinball machine with both sides moving in and out of the other's end with precision and speed, in spite of the weather.
There were solid opportunities to find the net for both sides in the first half, but all were spoiled until the 35th minute when St. Xavier senior Adam Arar found a bouncing ball in front of Anderson's net and sent it home with a well-placed touch that perfectly manufactured the right amount of gentle and firm.
It was a Craig Wellens corner that found Gino Geiser inside the box and his deflected shot found Arar in the right spot to put the Bombers up 1-0 at intermission.
Early in the second half, Anderson junior Brodie Sallows provided the equalizer in typical Sallows fashion. Look away for a second, Sallows is the type of player who can strike quickly and efficiently.
"Every time Brodie gets the ball it's so quick," said Jones. "Brodie's pretty good at burying it. We've been relying on him all year. In the playoffs, we've started him and asked him to play bigger roles for us and he's delivered."
More: Anderson's London soccer transfer: 'The things he does are hard to teach'
Anderson will face Beavercreek Saturday in a regional championship. The location and time have not been announced at this time.
"They're a great team and we go one step at a time," said Jones. "We'll give it our all. I think a lot of people see them as favorites but we like the underdog role."
St. Xavier coach Brian Schaeper said: "Well, the first message was to keep your head up. They played a very hard-fought game. There was nothing about their play I could be disappointed about.
"This team really grew throughout the season. At one point we were 2-3-4. Now, it was against a very difficult schedule and we weren't in a stage of doubt but we changed some things and really grew into a system."
Schaeper said what he'll remember about this team are the people.
"The connections to these kids you've journeyed with, especially the seniors. We had a big senior class of guys that we've walked with for four years," Schaeper said. "I'm very proud of the way this team developed over the course of the season playing the most difficult schedule and taking their lumps and learning from it instead of putting their heads down."

The Loop / Golf Digest — INDIANAPOLIS — I'm standing in line to get my fancy "American Ninja Warrior" media pass, a red clip-on badge that announces to everyone, "F**k no I'm not doing this, it would aggravate my back arthritis," but the kid behind me talks to me anyway, glancing quizzically at my snappy blazer/jeans combo before asking if I'm running the course. No no, I say, joking that I'm too old for that kind of thing. "Nah man, it's OK," he shoots back with a trainer's enthusiasm, "Lots of old people run it." Lots. Lots of OLD PEOPLE. Break an arm falling from a steel trapeze, pipsqueak, and don't come crying to me in 15 years when all your energy-drink sugar turns into side fat and diabetes.
Now in its 10th season, NBC's "American Ninja Warrior" spends its springs traveling to a half-dozen cities before resolving into its finals in Las Vegas. Tonight they're in Indy, dropping a giant obstacle course onto Monument Circle and lighting the surrounding buildings with appropriate Hollywood fervor.
And they're here because Indy turns up for this.

Today we're excited to announce the release of the latest version of our iOS notifier that'll make debugging your iOS applications painless. Our team's been working hard on some awesome features to make our notifier the best iOS crash detection service available.
Built atop the proven KSCrash open source library, we've included all sorts of upgrades to make debugging easy. You're getting top-tier usability and the most accurate crash reports.
Here's what's new:
Our iOS error reports now contain details for all your threads, so you can better diagnose issues where one thread causes another to crash. With better contextual information, you'll debug your software faster, and know with full confidence what was happening in your app that caused a crash.
Key to debugging in iOS is symbolication, where we make sure your stack trace is complete with file names, line numbers, and method names. We give you all these details regardless of whether you've stripped the debugging information from your app or not.
We've now made our symbolication support even better. We fully support the new embedded framework technology released as a part of iOS 8. This means we can symbolicate stack frames in both your application and inside any embedded frameworks you're using.
We've improved our symbolication and stacktrace collection to bring you more accuracy where it matters. Our iOS notifier now gets you even closer to the line of code that crashed, so you can more precisely pinpoint the issue. You'll no longer see stacktraces with Bugsnag frames, or incorrectly symbolicated line numbers. We've fixed any imperfect reporting for a more precise picture of what caused the crash.
The new notifier is fully async-safe! Async safety guarantees we only call async safe functions while handling a crash. This ultimately means your program crashes flawlessly and doesn't lock up. We also avoid calling any objective-c code while handling a crash, so even if the runtime is in a bad state, you'll still get your full crash report.
In this release, we've expanded our crash detection to capture more errors than before. We now effectively capture stack overflow errors, and as an added bonus, we even support Apple's Swift programming language, released as part of the iOS 8 launch. We now capture many more types of rare crashes, so you can be sure we have you covered across the board.
Our iOS notifier is the most accurate and user friendly error monitoring tool. Our team obsesses over crash detection and bug fixing. We're committed to making this process as easy as possible for developers, even when it comes to mobile — our new iOS notifier accomplishes just that. Get started with Bugsnag's automatic iOS crash reporting.

Tribe Spring Recap and 2016 Predictions, Thoughts, & Player Evaluations
hey there, Tribe fans! Happy day before Indians Opening Day! baseball is just about back and that means it's time for 216clevelandgirl to recap the Tribe's spring and give my thoughts about the roster and the team's chances in 2016. so here we go!
while spring training is an important part of a baseball players' preparation, as tedious as it may be, the outcomes of the games don't always mean a whole lot. this year, in 34 games, including the two exhibition contests in Texas on April 1 and 2, the Tribe's spring record was 18-12-4, 3rd best in the Cactus League. while that looks pretty good, it could have been even better.
Michael Brantley To Open Indians' 2016 Season On 15-Day DL
he tried to avoid it, but unfortunately it could not be avoided. today, on April 3, the Cleveland Indians announced that Michael Brantley was placed on the 15-day DL as he continues to recover from offseason right shoulder surgery. we've all known this was going to happen for some time, but the roster transaction did not become official until now. the good news about his DL stint is it's retroactive to March 25. that means, if Michael was ready, he could be activated as early as April 9 and would only miss the first week–just 4 games–of April, as opposed to missing the first two weeks or more of the season. while that once seemed like a real possibility, it now doesn't appear as though he will be back that fast.

Dickie Kerr's Interview About the Chicago Black Sox
The 1919 Chicago White Sox are the most infamous team in baseball history. Eight members of their squad knew about and/or participated in a plot with gamblers to throw that year's World Series to the underdog Cincinnati Reds. Known as the Black Sox, those eight players were ultimately banned from baseball for life by Commissioner Kennesaw Mountain Landis. Although that team is now notorious for the actions of some, they had teammates who gave it their all, yet aren't remembered nearly as much. One of those was pitcher Dickie Kerr, who once went on the record about his experience.

Photoshop Custom Shapes are handy-dandy little things to have in your design arsenal. A Custom Shape, or ".csh" file is a collection of graphics that you can use to draw shapes within Photoshop. The Custom Shape tool functions exactly like the Rectangle, Oval, and Circle drawing tools in Photoshop, the only difference being that instead of boring ol' geometric shapes, you can draw nearly anything.
Some of our products come as Custom Shape (.csh) files, which enable you to draw designs on any image format in Photoshop without the loss due to down/upsizing of JPG, PSD, and Tiff files. This is because custom shapes are in Vector format and depend on a mathematical algorithm, rather than pixel data, when they are displayed. Vectors can be inserted as tiny as a pixel or as large as a billboard without any change in the way the design looks.
HOW TO INSTALL A .CSH FILE (in Photoshop)
1. Open Photoshop and choose EDIT -> PRESET MANAGER from the top menu.
2. When the PRESET MANAGER pops up, choose "Custom Shapes" from the dropdown menu.
3. Choose "Load".
4. When the file dialog comes up, find the .csh file you downloaded from Design Aglow and select it.
5. Choose OK.
You will now see a preview of all the custom shapes in the set in the Preset Manager window. If you cannot see previews, click on the tiny black arrow at the top right of the Preset Manager window. Select "LARGE THUMBNAILS". When you are sure your custom shapes have been loaded, you can choose "Done" and begin drawing with them.
Custom Shapes work in Photoshop Elements too! If you have PSE, follow these steps:
For Mac:
1) Open Finder
2) Select "Macintosh HD"
3) Select the "Applications" folder
4) Select "Adobe Photoshop Elements X" ([where X is the # of your version of Elements (6, 7, etc)] 5) Select the "Presets" folder
6) Select the "Custom Shapes" folder 7) Drag "TEXT_ACCESSORIES_DELIGHTFUL.csh" into the "Custom Shapes" folder
8) Restart Photoshop Elements
For Windows:
1) Open My Computer
2) Navigate to the "Program Files" folder
3) Select the "Adobe" folder
4) Select the "Photoshop Elements X" folder[where X is the # of your version of Elements (6.0, 7.0, etc)]
5) Select the "Presets" folder
6) Select the "Custom Shapes" folder
7) Drag "TEXT_ACCESSORIES_DELIGHTFUL.csh" into the "Custom Shapes" folder
8) Restart Photoshop Elements

The Blacknyellows run the board, leading the Bayern by five points with nine games to be played. Still: Dortmund is restless.
Nothing much happened last week. BVB dropped points in Augsburg, partly lacking concentration, still fighting for their lives. Bayern hammered lousy Hoffenheim 7-1 and ate away two of seven points. A draw away, even to Augsburg, who have put on some outstanding performances, losing only one of their last seven league matches, happens to the best teams in the world. You can ask Messi about that. And nobody ever said that Bayern had a piss poor team, they ARE able to score seven goals but so they are able to drop points in Freiburg. Success however changes attitude. And that's what has slowly happenend with the Dortmund fans recently, if you had a look around the Dortmund forums this week.
Only seven years ago Borussia avoided bankcruptcy on a gloomy day in Düsseldorf. And some four years ago I was travelling on the very same train. I was about to move to Dortmund, mainly because I wanted to be closer to Borussia. Travelling on that train I wrote my first pre-match report for schwatzgelb.com. Borussia faced Bremen and Thomas Doll was in charge. I believe we won that match but played a disastrous season, showcasted on what happens to a club living in the past. Under Jürgen Klopp things have obviously changed. Living in the here and now and quite enjoying it. Not exclusively because we are still in the race for the double this season, not exclusively because we are the title holders, mainly because of the way we play. Mainly because of the Borussia feeling. On match days. Even in a town, far away from Dortmund. There is a Borussia bar in every town. And in every single bar in every single town in Germany, you meet people with great stories on how and why and when they became a Borusse. And frankly: They love to see Borussia win, they love to celebrate titles but they will also be their when things don't end up the way we hope them to end.
Things needed to be said after frustrating discussions this week. But now. Let's focus on the match ahead. With no players injured (but slowly recovering Mario Götze) it will be interesting to see which team Jürgen Klopp is going to field. Will he rest Lewandowski, who during the week made over a the headlines for rejecting Borussia's first contract offer, will he replace Dortmund boy Großkreutz with Ivan Perisic? Perisic, as Lewandowski, during the week said "he dies on the bench when Borussia scores". But a Perisic has a million lives and it also took Lewandowski a year to get into the team. One of the moaning players back in autumn 2011 now leads Borussia offense. Kuba, who for the first time in his Dortmund career, has been showing his talent over more than just a handful matches, has proven that talk plus action equals points. And Jürgen Klopp will stick to the players he fielded against Augsburg.
But what about Bremen? What about Bremen's attack? "It does not make things easier for us", says Klopp about Pizarro's two match suspension and adds "we love to compete against the best players and it will also not make it easier for us to prepare for the match." Bremen's attack will not only be missing Pizarro, but also Marko Arnautovic (injured while playing with his dog), Marin (hamstring) and Hunt. Only Rosenberg is fit to play. Bremen coach Thomas Schaaf now ponders the idea of changing the system to the common 4-2-3-1. "Everything is possible", says Schaaf and asks "what is the best option for us?" If Schaaf sticks to the system new kid Niclas Füllkrug could join Rosenberg in the attack. Füllkrug, 19, has played 74 minutes of Bundesliga football, has 43 touches to the ball and one shot at the goal. Not exactly the kind of player Hummels and Subotic have to fear, but says Bremen midfielder Aleksandar Ignovksi "we are going to beat Dortmund 1-0 and the goal will be scored by Niclas Füllkrug. Those words however were spoken before goalie Tim Wiese and midfielder Bargfrede also announced they were not travelling to Dortmund.
Whatever Ignovoski predicts, whoever is injured – it is our game and it is our task to win the game. We have eleven players to make the most out of Saturday. Eleven players who fill fight for their title chances, who will not be shaking when thinking about their five point lead and what it would be like to lose the lead and we have more than 80.000 fans to turn Westfalenstadion into hell for Bremen tomorrow at 3.30pm CET! Nobody ever said defending a title was easy but also nobody ever said it was not allowed. Just nine more games to enjoy this Bundesliga season. Auf geht's Dortmund, kämpfen und siegen!
Borussia Dortmund: Weidenfeller - Piszczek, Subotic, Hummels, Schmelzer - Bender Kehl - Kuba, Kagawa, Großkreutz - Lewandowski
Subs: Langerak - Löwe, Owomoyela, Santana, Leitner, Gündogan, da Silva, Perisic, Barrios
Werder Bremen: Mielitz - Fritz, Prödl, Sokratis, Schmitz - Ignjovski - Junuzovic, Trybull - Ekici - Rosenberg, Füllkrug
Ref: Deniz Aytekin
Kick-Off: 3.30pm, Saturday, March 17th 2012
The Westfalenstadion is sold out. The 1.000.000th fan will pass through the turnstyles tomorrow. And then sit back for a minute of silence for Timo Konietzka, who died earlier this week aged 73.

Recycling basketball is a hit for local children Twitter
Photos and story by Bryan Hay
Scoring points for hitting recycling bins and losing them for a strike in a gray trash can, about 20 fourth-graders lobbed empty Cheez-It boxes, plastic water bottles, and other recyclables as part of a program on the environment during their recent visit to Lafayette.
For the Cheston Elementary School kids, it was part of a student-led program to learn about college life and heighten their recognition of how everyday objects and actions or inactions can adversely affect the environment. It was done in conjunction with the Center for Community Engagement's pilot program at the South Side Easton school.
Sixteen students in Organizations and the Environment, taught by Andrea Armstrong, guided the youngsters in lessons showing how long it takes for organic and inorganic materials to break down and, using writing and drawing, identifying the kinds of household trash that routinely gets thrown away.
But the highlight of the afternoon in the Marlo Room at Farinon Student Center was recycling basketball, where the kids reached into a pile of refuse and tested their skills and environmental sensitivity by tossing various plastic and paper items into the blue bins. A direct hit was a score for the environment.
Armstrong, assistant professor of environmental science and studies, said the goal of her class is to learn how an organization can take actions to make a difference.
"My students came up with fun educational lessons for the fourth-graders to learn about how to protect the environment and put what they learn into practice," she said.
Liz Passantino '19 (policy studies and economics) said planning and carrying out the activities for the Cheston kids was invigorating. "It's just a lot of fun working with these kids and watching them learn," she said.
Reese, one of the fourth-graders, said he enjoyed a firsthand look at what student life is like at Lafayette. Perhaps even more importantly, "I learned that you can't recycle straws," he said.

Google Chrome is no doubt one of the most popular web browsers today. One of the main reasons for this is its super fast speed, and attractive- user-friendly interface.
For Web developers and designers, this browser in its basic form may not seem like a very useful tool, however, there are many extensions that you can add to it. Through extensions , you can increase the functionality of your browser to meet your needs as a developer.
At the moment, there are so many extensions that have been developed specifically to meet some of needs web designers and developers have. IF you are in the business of web design, Here are 6 useful chrome extensions for designers you will find very useful.
1. IE Tab
This extension allows you to simulate Internet Explorer using Google chrome. This means that you can test how well the WebPages you design display on Internet explorer without having to use the actual internet explorer browser.
Internet Explorer is still a very popular browser and it is therefore important to ensure that your WebPages display well on it. This extension helps you achieve this.
There are also websites that display best on internet explorer than other browser out there. The IE Tab chrome extension allows you to open such sites within your chrome browser. Please note that at the moment, this extension only works on the Windows platform.
2. Web Developer
You can use this great tool when you need to inspect a web Page. It allows you to study scripts and all kinds of hidden information from a website.
Apart from viewing hidden elements, this extension also allows you to fill forms, gain exclusive control of your browser's cache, test your codes and make quick changes. This extension brings you all kinds of useful options neatly organized on in a simple toolbar form.
3. Chrome sniffer
This cool extension allows you to study a web page by letting you view running web applications, and JavaScript Libraries. This extension though very simple makes it easier learn tricks used by other designers. It allows you to hone your skills by letting you study work done by other developers. It can even detect the Content Management System used on a webpage and detect over 100 different frameworks.
4. Code Cola
This is another great extension that you can use to edit your web pages. Using code cola, you can simply click on the area within the web page you would like to edit. You can therefore quickly make the instant changes to Cascading Style Sheets on the go.
5. Resolution Test
When developing a WebPages, you need to make sure that internet users are able to open and view it irrespective of their device's screen resolution. Resolution test lets you adjust the resolution of your browser to see how your webpage looks at different resolutions.
You can use preset resolutions or specify custom sizes. Every developer understands how important it is to test a WebPages in different resolutions. This extension makes this process easier.
6. AddJump
Unlike the extensions mentioned here, Addjump is more of an organizer. If you have several extensions on added to your browser, what Addjump does is help you organize and manage all of them. You can even group your extensions for easier and faster access. This extension brings you all your extension in a single list letting you access whatever you need faster.
Upon initial installation, Google chrome looks like a web browser you can only use for fast web browsing. However, with extensions such as these, you can work more efficiently and perform more tasks within the browser. To install extensions, simply visit the Google Chrome Web store.

My best friend Lisa died. DIED. She died less than a week after her 51st birthday. She started her birthday week with a headache; a headache that just wouldn't go away. Headaches were not common to her and this one was so bad that she complained about it and she was never one to complain about anything. Yet, as we women so often do (men may do the same, but I've never been a man so I really can't say) we push through things and keep going because that is what we do. Lisa, always one to try to see humor in most anything remarked: "I blame everything on menopause". I remain haunted by her social media post that week about her headache.
Lisa was my friend of over 35 years and we had plans of growing into sassy old ladies together laughing through life and old age together. As I'm wading through grief and thinking about what could have made a difference, I'm writing to you about a silent killer and what we can do to keep that killer at bay. Awareness of that killer, the risk factors and awareness of warning signs of a stroke are things that may have made a difference for Lisa and I know she'd want us to get the word out about it.
As women, we are saturated with information about breast cancer and it is pretty safe to say that we are all aware. However, stroke kills twice as many women as breast cancer every year and we are not so aware of that. On average, one American dies from stroke every 4 minutes; about 60% of stroke deaths occur in females.
According to the National Stroke Association:
- Only 1 in 4 women can name more than 2 of the 6 primary stroke symptoms
- 7 out of 10 women said they are not aware they are more likely than men to have a stroke, and were not at all or only somewhat knowledgeable about risk factors
- African-American women suffer from a significantly higher number of strokes than Caucasian women, yet they were less likely to correctly identify what causes a stroke
- Stroke is a leading cause of death for Hispanic women but they are significantly less aware of stroke symptoms
- 80% of all strokes are Preventable
What is the leading risk for Stroke?
- High Blood Pressure
High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) is a silent killer. High blood pressure has no warning signs or symptoms and most individuals don't know they have hypertension. Rarely, high blood pressure can cause symptoms like headaches or vomiting. It is vitally important to monitor your blood pressure on a regular basis. Know your numbers! Having it checked at a doctor's office is a good thing and it is done routinely at appointments, but that isn't enough. High blood pressure goes undetected way too often; make sure you know what your blood pressure is by routinely monitoring it at home with an easy to use, inexpensive device and keep current with preventative exams with your healthcare practitioner. Omron is a manufacturer of home units such as the one I now use: Omron 5 Series Upper Arm Blood Pressure Monitor with Wide-Range Cuff. Ideally, keep your blood pressure below 120/80. A blood pressure with a systolic reading of 180 or higher OR a diastolic reading of 110 or higher requires immediate emergency medical attention for hypertensive crisis.
About 7 of every 10 people having their first stroke have high blood pressure
How can you reduce your risk of high Blood Pressure?
- Be Active. 30 minutes of intentional exercise/ physical activity each day. Walking is excellent and YES you do have 30 minutes to spend each day to improve your health – of course you do! Visit QuittingTheSitting.org to learn how to become less sedentary each and every day.
- Eat Well. Eat a healthy diet that is low in salt and saturated fat. Eat a variety of vegetables and fruits. Eat more vegetables and fruit!
- Don't Smoke. If you Smoke – quit as soon as possible. Visit SmokeFree.gov for some great information and assistance.
- Manage Stress. Stress does damage to our body, mind & spirit. If there are stressors in your life that you can kick to the curb – do it! Find ways to cope with stress such as exercise, meditation or sitting down to color.
- Sleep isn't a luxury, it is a priority. So many things start going wrong when we don't get quality sleep especially over a period of time so shore up your sleep hygiene practices and seek help if needed.
What are the warning signs of Stroke?
- Sudden numbness or weakness of face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body
- Sudden confusion or trouble understanding
- Sudden trouble speaking
- Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
- Sudden severe headache with no known cause
What are warning signs unique to Women?
- Sudden hiccups
- Sudden shortness of breath
- Sudden heart palpitations
- Sudden chest pain
- Sudden face & limb pain
- Sudden nausea
- Sudden general weakness
- 425,000 women suffer a stroke each year
Potentially life-saving medication can be administered within 3 hours of the sudden symptom onset to reverse stroke. If you think you or someone else is having a stroke, call 9-1-1 immediately. Stroke is a medical emergency. Do not drive yourself or wait for a ride from a friend or family member. have an ambulance transport you.
If you think someone may be having a stroke, act F.A.S.T:
F – FACE: Does one side of the face droop when the person smiles?
A – ARM or Leg Weakness: Does one arm/leg drift downward when raised?
S – SPEECH: Is their speech slurred or strange?
T – TIME: If you observe any of these signs, call 9-1-1 immediately.
Ways to Prevent a Stroke?
- Control your Blood Pressure
- Don't Smoke
- Find healthy ways to cope with stress
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Get tested for Diabetes
- Have your cholesterol & triglyceride levels checked
- Drink no more than 1 alcoholic beverage per day
Take action now to control the things that you can to reduce your risk of a Stroke. Be aware of the signs and be ready to take immediate action. Don't ignore symptoms that are sudden, unusual and without a known cause. Trust your instincts! Be a lifesaver – share this information with others and ask them to share with their friends, family and co-workers.
Stay Healthy. Be STRONG. Get After It.

A highly emotional and complicated custody battle is playing out in one southern state, and many Maryland readers are closely following the story. An adoptive family is fighting to keep their daughter, while her biological father is struggling to regain custody of the little girl. The case is anything but simple, and has led to debate across the nation on matters of child custody and adoption.
The child was born with both benzoylecgonine and cocaine in her system. That prompted authorities to remove her from the care of her mother. At the time of her birth, her father was incarcerated. The little girl was placed in the home of a foster family, who eventually adopted her. The same family is also providing care for the little girl's sister, and has taken in many other children.
As part of the adoption, the biological father's parental rights were terminated. He was not present at that hearing, but had a legal representative in place. He was recently released from jail, and appealed the loss of his parental rights. He was successful in that endeavor, and the parties will now have to go back to court to address child custody matters.
These types of cases are never easy, for anyone involved. The adoptive parents have provided a loving home for their daughter, who is nearly 4 years old. At the same time, parental rights are among the most important rights that Americans hold, and losing access to one's child is never a simple matter. As this child custody case moves forward, Maryland residents will watch to see how the court rules, and whether the adoptive family will be able to keep the child to whom they have opened their hearts and home.

I ask Norse about his drive to write poetry.
He feels like a man without category.
He is not from the élite and he is not entirely of the poor.
He is not working class but he is not rich.
Norse was 53 in 1969, the year of the Stonewall Riots.
He was 60 when he published Carnivorous Saint and became
the poetic voice of the gay liberation movement.
Norse discusses recently published letters he received as a
young writer from W.H. Auden.
Auden advised Norse to accept the locked doors of the
literary world as a sign of his true calling in life as a saint.
When Norse speaks of a politically correct left, he means an academic
élite that restrains the use of a certain kind of language even when it's
essential to the work.
Section 3 of the interview closes with a question of identify:
"It seems to me that you're making more than a writer when you take
an illiterate and give him the ability to express himself with a self
conscious understanding of his real social and political position. That
is an extremely powerful thing to do and it can be devastating."

Created by Veroneque Ignace, Kriyol Dance! artistic director, Lavi Miyò is a collaborative dance, music, and visual arts project that employs storytelling and Haitian traditional music, dance, and oral history. The argument at its foundation is the claim that consuming the overarching and highly romanticized notions of resistance with regards to black peoples, and especially people of Haitian descent, disregards the day-to-day traumas that individuals experience. The project centers the creation of work on the terms resilience, resistance, power, and empowerment and their implications on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
This choreographic work was first presented as a work-in-progress, in 2016, through Haiti Cultural Exchange. The event featured Williams College alum, students, and community members: Veroneque Ignace, Laurel O'Connor, Naomi Fields, Olivier Joseph, Len'l Russell, and Marla Robertson. The show was held at Five Myles Gallery, Friday January 29th 6-9pm and moderated, afterward, by Jessica St. Vil and Shalomisrael Diggs of KaNu Dance Theater. Read about it here.
KDC's full length presentation of "Lavi Miyò" occurred June 21-June 22nd.
The event will included a visual arts exhibition of paintings
by Nathalie Jolivert, Brooklyn based Haitian artist and designer.
Her featured artwork chronicles conversations of wellness, Vodou, and urbanism in Downtown, Port-au-Prince. This work has a particular focus on how Lakou St. Michel Archange, a 140-year old Vodou community, provides tools to remain strong both to the community in downtown Port-au-Prince and to its diaspora.
This full length performance was made possible by the continued support and participation of Kriyol Dance! artists, Nathalie Jolivert, Sirene Dantor of Fanmi Asòtò, Five Myles Gallery, Crossing Midnight Entertainment, and Lakou Societe St. Michel Archange, and others.
A special thank you to Citizens Committee for New York City for selecting
Kriyol Dance! Collective as a recipient of the 2018 Neighborhood Grant.

Asia's newest nation celebrated its 10th birthday this month: 20 May in Timor-Leste was a celebration of freedom that also deserved to be a celebration of development. After centuries of foreign rule, Timor-Leste has readied itself to be a full partner in what is shaping up as Asia's century.
Nation-building is a complex process, and the world's media have documented Timor-Leste's difficulties, from the graphic images of violent uprisings in 1999 and 2006, to the assassination attempts of 2008. These disturbing episodes earned it the moniker of fragile state. What some may have missed, however, is that Timor-Leste has emerged as one of the fastest-growing economies in Asia and the Pacific. Projections by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) show the economy has the potential to sustain a near double-digit rate of growth over this decade and beyond.
What's more, this rapid economic growth has been inclusive, reaching the poor and well-off alike. The inclusiveness of growth is best revealed by the progress made in providing opportunity to a nation's children. This is an especially important perspective in Timor-Leste, where half of the population is 18 years or younger. Research by the ADB drawing on household surveys (eg the most recent demographic and health survey) is showing that Timor-Leste has indeed succeeded in expanding the opportunities provided to its children.
Nearly three-quarters of Timor-Leste's young children were in school by the end of the past decade, up from 50% at the start of the decade. Most importantly, the poor were sharing in the opportunities education provides. At the end of the decade, 60% of young children from the poorest families were in school. Among the poorest families, 72% of older children were in the classroom. For both younger and older children of the poorest families, the participation of girls was at least matching that of boys. By the end of the past decade, 64% of young girls from the poorest families were in school, compared with 57% of young boys. For the older children of poorer families, the school participation rate had reached 72% for both girls and boys.
At the start of the decade, only 2% of children under five from the poorest families were receiving a full course of vaccinations. That figure climbed to nearly a third by the end of the decade. A mere 7% of the poorest Timorese children under five were receiving a vitamin A supplement at the start of the decade. Now, more than half are receiving it. Ten years ago, 27% of the poorest mothers received antenatal care from a trained provider. By the end of the decade, this had risen to 75%, with an average across all mothers of 86%. These are important milestones in Timor-Leste's move beyond "fragility" and on to a path of sustainable development.
The nation is also saving for its future, putting aside revenue earned from offshore petroleum fields jointly managed with Australia, in a world-class sovereign wealth fund that now holds more than $10bn for future generations (the Petroleum Fund is explained here). Over the coming 10 years, Timor-Leste will see the second of two new power stations, road and water supply upgrades, and a new international port. This investment will help break a bottleneck on the economy caused by deteriorating infrastructure.
The nation's budget, meanwhile, reveals that Timor-Leste's leaders have remained true to the long-held values that fuelled the country's quest for independence. The principle of equity can be seen in the pensions provided to the elderly, the payments made to single mothers and those with disability, and the support provided to the veterans of the fight for independence. Information on Timor-Leste's budget is also now provided on a near real-time basis by the world-class transparency portal. The essential underpinnings of a modern state – credibility and trust – have been strengthened by the Timorese's assertive efforts to meet the needs of the people. Timor-Leste is now investing in peace and stability.
As it celebrated its first 10 years, Timor-Leste inaugurated a new president – one peacefully elected by the people. President Taur Matan Ruak is part of the next generation of leaders and his appointment marks a healthy sharing of political power across generations that Timor-Leste can be proud of.
Timor-Leste has emerged as an exciting frontier economy, and its application to join the Association of Southeast Asian Nations will help it more closely integrate with the world's powerhouse economies. This is not to suggest that the hard work is over. For a long time, Timorese have been living to survive. The people of Timor-Leste now need to learn to make a living. Success is not guaranteed. We know from international experience that maintaining good governance, and striving for the most value-for-money from government expenditure will be vital if Timor-Leste is to reach its potential and catch up with the rest of Asia.
We also know that each time Timor-Leste stumbled, it stood up again, learned, and moved forward. This resilience, together with the continued support of development partners, can leave us confident that the next 10 years will be a success for Timor-Leste.


text: Recognizing that teachers in all subjects must collaborate to improve literacy skills, Ms. Finnegan, Ms. Hravatic, and Ms. Hart develop vertical teams of language arts and science teachers to refine curriculum and instruction. Language arts teachers from elementary through high school collaborate with science teachers to improve literacy skills by increasing technical reading and writing using high interest science materials and inquiry-based learning. The science vertical team, composed of teachers from grades three through eight, develops a continuum of academic skills and works to refine instruction and communication among teachers. To expand teachers' content knowledge and increase student achievement, the vertical teams invite local universities and community science outreach programs to participate in their work.


text: This post was written by Andy McLean (Editor of The Gospel Project for Students). To see the entire series click here. In 1964 Bob Dylan released a hit song titled "The Times They Are a-Changin." While this was certainly true back then, the same could be said for the times our students live in today. It doesn't take long for one to determine after a brief look around that the current times in which our students are living is something quite different from previous years. Sure, the "spirit of the age" looks the same – in the sense that ethical and religious relativism still reigns in the public square and marketplace – but the current times expresses this cultural spirit in ways that are unique to this generation. Part of the uniqueness involves the massive cultural shift towards globalization and information expansion that has taken place in the timespan of one generation. Students are no longer exposed to competing worldviews and values in their own classroom or in the locker room, but also now the competing ones coming through their laptops, smartphones, and iPods. I'm not saying this as an attempt at providing a study on our cultural and political landscape, nor is it meant to be a shock-and-awe way of illustrating the type of world our students live in. Rather, the point is simply this: as with every time period and every generation, the unique challenges that our students face today underscore the importance of equipping this generation with a biblical worldview that they can build their lives upon as they internalize the gospel. Of course, having our students internalize the gospel and grow deeper in their commitment to Christ should be a given in student ministry – after all that is the very fruit we want to see! However, you know all too well that witnessing fruit like this comes by far too infrequently. There are a number of reasons for this – one being the simple reality that the amount of time we, as ministers, are able to minister to our students is astoundingly low in comparison to other things in their daily schedule that compete for their attention. In my own experience, I remember students that, for whatever reason, I was only able to interact with for an hour each week. In fact, because television, Internet, friends, sports, schoolwork – pretty much everything besides me – was able to have more opportunities (in terms of time percentage) to influence their worldview, I came to miss my former profession of teaching at a private school where my opportunities for ministry tripled by the sheer amount of time I had with students. In the church context, time was a precious commodity that I was competing for against so many other things. And if intentional discipleship is one of your main goals, then being intentional about the time you are given becomes an additional responsibility as you seek to shepherd the hearts of students. In fact, this is the very reason why being intentional about your summer months and not wasting them becomes a tremendous opportunity for potential ministry. One way to state the importance of redeeming the summer for student discipleship is by thinking of the Greek words chronos and kairos. Chronos refers to the concept of time understood in a linear fashion – time understood and experienced in the day to day, week to week, month to month, etc. Kairos, on the other hand, also refers to time, but not in the same way. Time for kairos refers to a specific moment in time and/or a quality of time. It refers to a special moment or period of time within time, an opportunity to be seized upon. When I think about summer months in the context of student ministry, I think of opportunities for kairos. Think about it – there is less competition for the amount of potential time you have with students – school is out, many of the extra-curricular activities have been put on hold, and students generally have a lot of free time during the summer months. So, if one is trying to seize upon opportune moments for intentional discipleship, why not focus on redeeming the summer months for this very purpose? If you are looking to do more intentional discipleship in your student ministry, and if your goal is to see more students' lives changed as they internalize the gospel for themselves, my encouragement would be to give a lot of consideration to jumping on-board with the notion of not wasting your summer. If it's not with your entire group, then grab a handful of students and commit to meet with them as you go through the summer study of The Gospel Project: Students. Not only will it help serve the goal of equipping students with a biblical worldview to build their lives upon, but it will serve you in helping creating kairos moments in the life of your student ministry.

OPi Zero AP + Client mode (Solved)
Bubba replied to Jaco Fourie's question in Orange Pi ZeroJaco you should label this thread solved.
Nightly Builds
Bubba replied to darkdrgn2k's question in Orange Pi ZeroTo get what you want you should build it yourself. It is really easy now that These folks here have done all the heavy lifting for us. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ And you should donate some funds to the project if you are going to use the work.
I saw no wifi improvement between the two versions. The wifi is only used by 1 or 2 people standing 10 feet or less from the zero and the files are small.
There is 10 1.1 and 6 1.4 They all run the older kernel. I found code on the forum which kills all but one core, and slows down the ram, made them "stable" Not able to get to it now, only access to zeros is from the local network at the NOCs Will check my notes when I go back to town
I have 16 zero running 24/7 the only way they stay "online" is with it set to off. Otherwise they drop off after a few hours of inactivity.
I think Chwe meant powermangement off
What are you using your Orange Pi Zero for?
Bubba replied to jimandroidpc's topic in Off-topicSome accept unix files convert them into CSV and make them available to a android app. Some take in KML / XML / text files and convert them and make them available to a android app.
[Share] OrangePiZero OpenWrt Chaos Calmer 15.05.1
Bubba replied to Fuad Salim's topic in Off-topichttp://pulpstone.pw/sunxi/
OK I moved the zero plus H3 to about 10 meters with two walls in the path I ran Ping with and without PM. I see the same thing you see high ping times with pw enabled, PM is enabled on reboot ping_from_0plusH3_PM_off.txt ping_from_0plusH3_PM_on.txt
Not a very good signal, alot of noise, switch channels I will post some test from a Zero Plus H3 later, but I do not see this from my zero's (but my wifi signal is MUCH cleaner)
testers wanted More proper testing - better Armbian experience
Bubba replied to Igor's topic in Advanced users - DevelopmentDo you have a punch list of what you would like tested / how you want the tests be run? Just installing and running does not really provide much info.
First Orange pi not supported anymore ?
Bubba replied to arcadialabs's question in Allwinner sunxihttps://www.armbian.com/orange-pi/ The mainline server is 4.11.... yes older boards are "phased out" You could check to see if you can build a desktop mainline..but do you know if the hardware is supported for AP mode (not all wi-fi can run in AP mode) and if the board has support in the mainline.
Orange Pi Zero - 1MBps SCP transfer speed, is this normal ?Hillz the zero wi-fi is slow, but that is very slow, check the channel you are using make sure to use the cleanest one. the stock antenna are crap replace. at 30 feet with two walls under heavy load I see 3~4 meg transfer, with small text files I see much faster speeds. If you use a usb wi-fi make sure you have a GOOD 5 v / 2~3 amp PSU
Chromium browser fails to launchcan you reproduce the error in a fresh build?? if not then it is not a software issue (bad sd card???) reproduce the error on a fresh build using another GOOD sd card. if you can reproduce the error, post logs, make of sd card, make of psu...so on give the folks here the help they need to help you.
Orange Pi Zero /4.11.0-sun8i/ wlan0 is gone
Bubba replied to hpapagaj's question in Orange Pi Zerostart here... https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/3243-orange-pi-zero-wireless-module-status-xradio-st-cw1200/ the zero works fine in IoT projects, thing is some folks think a cheap 7.00 board can replace 200.00 of x86 gear. ap limit of 5 connections, weak wi-fi signal, crappy stock antenna, weak psu = failure before they start Igor did build a 4.1x image with wi-fi it is linked here

at some point i will have to have a conflict about whether green is dBV or dBu
hmm shitty, simplified code takes 9uS
thats not awesome enough for 100KHz sampling
thats lame i guess the code with the peak hold at work is tripping over its timer interrupt
when your system timer mainloop becomes a mainloop mainloop + int latency
Posted by renesis at 14:27 | permalink | 0 comments
i havent decided yet
i typed 6 tho
theyre upside down
so the colors are on the bottom
you have 2 segment wide status indicators spaced out by one segment
col 9 10 red, col 6 7 yel, col 3 4 green
green = dBV, yellow = pro (+4dBu), red = home (-10dBu)
i told you there were useful!
Posted by renesis at 14:22 | permalink | 0 comments
these are cheap!
and yeah all red is sexy
gimme sec
im going to do: grn (-36dB), grn grn grn grn, white (-6dB), yellow (0dB), red (6dB)
damn i dont remember the eq from buelers day off
Posted by renesis at 14:17 | permalink | 0 comments
maybe use the red and yellow as indicators

Posted by renesis at 00:30 | permalink | 0 comments
not really
most of his shit is digital from app circuits
we used to help him with alot of the simple analog shit
but he actually has memory retention
just get a cheapo devkit
pin breakouts and support circuits already done is nice tho
moon eck0 is not you he cant just puke out functional circuits
thats not expensive
you can maybe find a setup like half that cost from 3rd party
but you might waste time helping them debug it
eck0`: its definitely fair

sounds neat
yes is on the list

For a few landowners, handling their their home is a good deal easier stated than done. That is particularly true for landowners who prefer to give their their home for lease. With respect to the authority, there will probably be some matters so that you can lawfully provide their house as a lease, needed of the landowner. Having a home management organization will help ensure that the home is with no need for the landowner to take a position an excessive amount of time in their their house, in excellent shape.
Handling a house may be full time occupation, particularly when the landowner has several attributes. For landowners who provide their their home for lease, much of the function comprises keeping the house for the renters. For example, every authority has property rules and specific demands for houses that are leasing that have to be satisfied so that you can carry on to supply the home for renal. The tenant is given the right to break their rent and empty the premises, which may cause significant difficulties for the householder by any signal breaches.
That is absolutely good for people who have decided to focus just on handling their attributes. Nonetheless, this is an additional pressure for people who have duties or a few other occupations. Where a house management business comes in useful, this can be. Home management organization may accept the duty of collecting leasing payments for the possessor and keeping the house. Additionally, so that you can get the house leased, the property management OKC organization may also display prospective renters and finish the required forms. To carry out these duties generally, the organization is going to cost a tiny fraction of the lease as payment.
Choosing the property management business that is right could be hardly complex. The truth is, several real-estate firms provide property management solutions to a lot of the customers. This importance of home management is becoming a popular choice for home-owners that have home they can't market. Several instances, when a house is in the property marketplace for a long time, the householder might decide to transform it it right into a lease in order to avoid a transaction they can't manage. In change, the genuine property can provide the house for purchase or rent, with respect to the homeowners requirements. Several property firms however may be just outfitted to provide lease collection solutions and renter variety. It might be as much as the homeowner to take care of the house.

When you're dealing with SEO on pages try to have lots of articles which can be short and about the same thing as opposed to a write-up that's long. With such improves your current ranking. For an aside, many viewers won't read the whole thing if it takes across a few screens to accomplish this.
To have better rankings with search engines like google, populate your "metatag" area with a number of keywords. Better yet, include misspellings of your respective keywords. The keywords within your metatags may help search engines suit your website with relevant searches.

Try to feature a keyword or two within your website name if you can. Make the website straightforward to find when potential visitors are searching for it.

|Ur was an important Sumerian city-state in ancient Mesopotamia, located at the site of modern Tell el-Muqayyar in southern Iraq. Although Ur was once a coastal city near the mouth of the Euphrates on the Gulf, the coastline has shifted and the city is now inland, south of the Euphrates, 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) from Nasiriyah.
The city dates from circa 3800 BC. According to one estimate, Ur was the largest city in the world from c.2030 to 1980 BC. Research indicates that the area was struck by severe drought conditions from 2200 to 2000 BC.
Close to temple buildings at the centre of the city of Ur, a rubbish dump built up over centuries. Unable to use the area for building, the people of Ur started to bury their dead there. The cemetery was used between about 2600-2000 BC and hundreds of burials were made in pits. Many of these contained very rich materials.
British archaeologist Leonard Woolley discovered the tomb of Puabi, which was excavated by his team along with some 1800 other graves at the "Royal Cemetery of Ur" between 1922 and 1934.
| Puabi's tomb was unique among the other excavations; not only because of the large amount of high quality and well-preserved grave goods, but also because her tomb had been untouched by looters through the millennia.
Along a wall, three lyres and a harp deteriorated by time stood still in silence. Woolley described the scenery as if "the last player had her arm over her harp, certainly she played to the end".

SMA and Body Modifications: It's My Choice
People often assume that disability prevents someone from being physically able to express themselves. Especially in the form of body modifications. They would be wrong. One of my favorite forms of artistic expression is body modifications, specifically tattoos. They're my favorite!
I started dyeing my hair in sixth grade. Since then, I've had almost every color you can think of. In 10th grade, I got my first piercings — my lip and my eyebrow. In 12th grade, I had my lip done again, mostly to spite a teacher. However, a while after I graduated, I took my piercings out and traded them for tattoos. (I'm glad I never got a tattoo in high school because I probably would have picked something stupid.)
I've gone in about four or five times to get tattooed. My longest session was six hours, when I got an entire mermaid sleeve done. This itty-bitty, 92-pound girl outlasted a burly guy. It was my proudest moment.
Sometimes I like to think that if things had turned out differently in my life, I'd have been a tattoo artist.
Like anyone with tattoos, people have commented to me about mine. Most of the comments are kind. However, not all of them are. And not all of them are even directed at me. But that really shouldn't come as a surprise.
Interested in SMA research? Check out our forums and join the conversation!
People assume a lot of things about us. Many, many people assume that I am considerably younger than I actually am. While I'm about to turn 22, I often pass for 15 or younger. No matter the context or clues that others are given, I am not often thought of as an adult.
I feel bad for my mom on these occasions.
My family and I were in a bar lounge celebrating an event. This was the second time that I'd been in a bar, the first being my 18th birthday. I am not into drinking, but occasionally, I do partake, like any person my age.
Context clues:
Bar? Check.
Glass of alcohol sitting in front of me? Check.
Arms full of tattoos? Check.
If my body wasn't so small, and honestly, if the wheelchair wasn't in the picture, most would know that I am old enough.
Nevertheless, a woman cornered my mom in the bathroom.
"How can you let that little girl do that to herself?" she asked my mom, who does not put up with that stuff. My mom was a bit confused, though she probably expected what came next. "The little girl in the wheelchair! How could you let her get those tattoos?"
My mom always has quick and witty comebacks to these types of comments. (And yes, as you can probably tell, my mom is my hero.)
This was her answer: "That little girl is 20. I don't know if you can tell from the paralyzer that she's drinking? She is legally allowed to do whatever she wants with her body. Mind your own business." As I said, she doesn't put up with that crap.
That's just one experience.
One doctor asked if I had drawn the tattoos on my arms before coming to the appointment. My appointment was at 8 a.m., and we had driven two and a half hours to get there.
I sure as heck wouldn't be drawing in the dark in a bumpy vehicle at 6 a.m. For one, I don't even have the range of motion for that, as I can only reach about 2 inches of skin on one arm. How the heck would I be able to draw on both arms all the way up to my shoulders? It's hard enough to eat in a vehicle.
It's the nice comments that we should pay attention to. But the odd or the awkward ones are the kind that make me laugh.
See you next week!

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., June 13, 2016 – The 2016 Hyundai Tucson and Azera earned the top spots in the compact crossover SUV and large car categories, respectively, in AutoPacific's 20th annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards (VSAs).
"With many options in the compact crossover SUV and large car categories, we are proud the Tucson and Azera got the vote from consumers themselves for meeting their wants and needs," said Mike O'Brien, vice president, corporate and product planning, Hyundai Motor America. "These vehicles took the top spot in owner satisfaction for offering better value, technology, safety and design."
The VSAs are based on survey responses from more than 65,000 owners of new 2015 and 2016 model-year cars and light trucks. The annual survey measures owner satisfaction on 50 separate attributes. These awards identify the most satisfying vehicles on the market and are an industry benchmark which measures how satisfied owners are with their new vehicle.
"New car buyers have come to expect quality. These awards show how Hyundai is also focused on their customer's needs and desires," said Daniel Hall, vice president, AutoPacific.
The all-new 2016 Hyundai Tucson offers an edgy exterior design, a pair of fuel efficient drivetrains, and a stylish interior that is roomier than its predecessor. A host of advanced safety features are available, including a Lane Departure Warning system, Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross-traffic Alert, Lane Change Assist, Backup Warning Sensors, and Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB). The 2016 Tucson also earned the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS's) 2016 TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation.
The 2016 Azera represents an advanced approach to the traditional premium sedan segment by delivering a powerful yet efficient powertrain, modern design, and luxury features combined with Hyundai's consistently strong value proposition. Azera continues to offer customers the highest levels of luxury, performance, and efficiency, all brought together in an innovative design.
