In this article, I'm going to lay out the foundation of how you can avoid the frustration of knee pain. I also provide exercises you can use to limit your chances of getting knee injuries

I could see he wasn't happy. It was etched across his face as he performed an exercise that he deemed too easy.
My Client had come to me a month earlier because he had developed knee issues and wanted help so he could run again.
He was confused why he was getting these problems now. He had played rugby all his life and an enthusiastic member of the local high intense bootcamp.
"Do you sit down a lot"
"Yes, I'm a lawyer. We all do"
"Have you had any pain in other areas around your knees"
"Not really, although sometimes my calf pulls and I get the occasional twinges in my back"
"What type of exercise do you do"
"You know, the usual. Running and I go to my local bootcamp"
I knew already but the movement assessment confirmed it for me. My client was experiencing the all too common yin & yang effect of modern life. Sedentary work environment followed by all out exercise with little attention to 'prehab' or optimal movement.
Your knee is a joint. Its prime function is stability and the movement you require from the joint is flexion and extension. It allows slight rotation but won't thank you for it.
The knee joint is created by the femur (thigh bone), the tibia (shin bone) and the patella. For its protection and its ability for fluid motion, these 3 bones are surrounded by cartilage and ligaments.
The ligaments create a sturdy strapping of the joint to allow strength & stability of the joint. The cartilage such as the meniscus provide a smooth surface. This aids the knees ability to have smooth motion but also absorb the load of the body as you walk, jump and run.
Additional to the cartilage, the knee joint also houses bursa which are fluid sacs that act like cushions while the knee takes a load.
Movement of the joint is created from the muscles that attach to the knee joint. When the knee flexes (bends) the hamstrings initiate this while the quadricep muscles initiate the extension (straightening) of the knee joint.
In an ideal world, your knees ability to achieve flexion and extension will serve you well right up until you're hitting 100 years old. Bad times hit the knees when:
Gangsters through the ages have utilised the value of option 'C. Naturally there is not much this article can advise to prevent a baseball bat to the knees other than to say, stay out of trouble.
So, I am going to focus on the first two options in this article!
The thing to constantly keep in mind is, all joints of your body are highly resilient and your knees are no exception.
As a result, when you experience knee pain it is the result of a cumulation of challenges to the knee joint rather than one direct action.
For example, lets say I assess you and find when you walk (or run) your knee turns inward as your foot lands on the floor. This is known as the 'valgus collapse'. It is caused when the hip joint internally rotates and the femur motions inwards (adducts) upon the foot landing.
Rather than the weight of your body going through the strongest part of your knee which is through the joint, the weight directs towards the inside of the knee joint which houses a lot of the ligaments.
Think of the amount of times in a day your feet land when you walk, run or when you bend your knee such as when you get up and down from your chair.
Now think how many times it will occur in a year. You can start to see how it is inevitable your knee is going to experience ACL tears, Miniscus tears and patello-femoral pain just to name a few of the common knee joint injuries.
What I have described is just from ONE example of what can happen to the knee!
So this is when the knee joint continually moves outside of its originally intended alignment, what about when it is forced to take up another function outside of proving stability?
This tends to occur when its other surrounding joints are being lazy, namely not providing mobility. For example, Go to a wall place your foot about 12 inches away from the wall and with your hands on the wall drive your knee forward while keeping your heel on the floor.
Does your heel come off the floor?
If you lack the mobility of your ankle joint, other joints have to compensate. Yep, you've guessed it – the knee joint.
Your body will always take the path of least resistance. When you walk and your knee comes forward in its stride it will be up to the knee joint to provide extra movement if the ankle joint doesn't allow the necessary mobility to cater for that stride,
What you will see is a lateral movement of the knee joint (as it can't go forward any further), creating a wearing and tearing of the ligaments
I hope you can see that a combination of how you move in everyday life AND in exercise can create the cumulative effect of pain and injury in your knee joint.
How do we deal with this then? The following is 5 questions to Answer to assess the problem of your knees.
Your derriere is the largest muscle of the body. As a result you'd expect it to have a pretty pinnacle job, and you'd be correct! Your glutes actually have 3 parts to them; Gluteus maximus, Gluteus medius and Gluteus Minimus.
The Gluteus maximus primary job is to extend the hip (think getting up from a chair/squat or propelling for as you walk/run). The glute medius and minimus have similar jobs of internal & external rotation of your hip, moving your leg in a lateral motion (abduction & adduction) as well as helping to stabilise your hip, pelvis & femur (thigh bone).
That quite a lot of jobs right?
Excessive sitting down turns off (inhibits) your glutes. What can you imagine happens to the joints around the area (psst, your knees!) if your glutes aren't firing on all cylinders?
If your Glute medius & Minimus are inhibited, it is not stabilising your hip when you do basic acts like walking. This means more pressure is going to be placed on your knees because the load above it (your hips) are not being stabilised.
One way you can easily check this is to place your hands on the top of your hips and go on one leg. If you find one hip drops so it is lower than the other, your glutes are likely to not be activating as well as they should be.
One of the 'truths' you need to realise about the body is it will always take the path of least resistance when it is being asked to do something.
Take walking for example; You place one foot forward, stride forward and for a period you're on one leg as your rear leg propels forward to take the step.
In an ideal world, what should happen is throughout this movement your knees should remain facing forward in line with your feet. This relies on 2 factors:
If these factors aren't present what will happen is, each time you walk/run/get up and down from a chair, the path of least resistance will be your knee going inwards (known as Valgus knees).
To get an idea of the impact this will have on the inside of your knee, give the Elvis Shimmy shake a try for a minute and get a sense of how it feels on your knee…then times it by 1000 as you are doing this lateral action EVERY DAY!
Stand in front of a mirror and relax.
Notice which direction your feet are pointing. Notice whether your kneecaps are facing forward or outward?
Now stand sideways to the mirror. Take a side glance and notice what you see. Do you have a lower back tilt causing your pelvic to tilt forward (Anterior tilt)? Is your head protruding forward, along with a forward lean on your upper back (thoracic flexion)?
All of these factors are deviations from your optimal postural alignment. In an ideal world, when you stand up straight:
Any deviation from this position and you face the increasing likelihood the joints that are responsible for stabilising you, your knees being one of these, have more pressure on them than they can handle.
At some point when watching rugby or American Football you will see a tackle where a player launches at their opponent from side on where their knee goes sideway.
If the unfortunate recipient of this tackle is particularly unlucky they will experience the "unhappy triad". This is damage caused to 3 of the major ligaments of the knee; Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Medial Collateral Ligament and the medial meniscus.
This is worst case scenario where there is direct trauma. For us everyday folk, we can help matters by ensuring there isn't too much lateral movement going on in our knee joint.
Aside from what I've talked about already, another factor is ensuring your quadriceps and hamstrings are operating correctly.
The principle function of the quadriceps and hamstring is the flexion (Hamstrings) and extension (quadriceps) but also helps in the stabilising process to prevent the knee from buckling.
In the process of getting up and down every day from a desk bound existence, we become very quad dominant without complimenting quad strength with Hamstring & glut strength. This is problematic as there is an unequal distribution of strength attempting to stabilise the knee.
One of the prime times when you need a stabiliser joint to do its job is when there is impact, such as when you jump or when running.
To aid this process the knee has shock absorbers known as Menisci which absorb force impacted on the knee. The knee also has Bursa which are fluid sacs that act as cushions in the areas where muscles & tendons move over the bony joint.
In short, we can handle impact. However, excessive impact that can come when there is misalignment and weak muscles not doing their job can see stability being compromised and these shock absorbers wearing away.
Issues such as Menisci tears and bursitis (inflammation of the bursa) can occur when there is too much strain on the knee joint due to instability.
As you look through these 5 questions, you may start to become clear on what is contributing to your knee pain. Thankfully, a lot of time there is a solution and part of that solution comes with what exercises you do on a regular basis.
In the next section I will present 6 exercise that I feel MUST be present in order to strengthen the areas around the knee and help eliminate knee pain.
Squats is an old stable in the exercise world and for good measure. A compound exercise due to its recruitment of multiple muscles, the squat activates your quads (a prime muscle group for stabilising the knee) and the muscles of your torso which prevents your torso from flexing forward as you squat.
The bridge is a very easy exercise to really activate your glutes, in particular your gluteus maximus which is responsible (amongst other things) for stabilising your hip whilst moving.
When moving you'd want your hip to be stable because if it isn't there is extra pressure on your knee to take the load.
The bridge is a very good starter exercise and perfect for focussing on really squeezing the glutes hard. I recommend two methods. One where your knees are directly above your hips and the other where your knees are out wide, changing the angle of activation.
The hip hinge isn't an exercise per say. It's a movement that's the basis for a large array of valuable exercises such as the deadlift and kettlebell swing. It is imperative to get the hip hinge right. Failure to do so results in putting the load into your lower back rather than your hips. Cue sore back and weak hamstrings!
The knee raise walk is the first exercise I describe where you are beginning to test your knee stabiliser muscles. When you walk and run you are on one leg. The knee raise walk helps you practice keeping the knee in line with your foot.
I like this simple exercise because it challenges the stability of your knee joint in a controlled manner. From the moment your rear foot drives through and raises out in front of you, you will need to stabilise your planted knee.
Lateral jumps is a great exercise to impose "mini trauma" on your knees without doing damage.
A common problem with the knee joint is placing too much pressure on the meniscus cartilage. This is especially true with people with a history of playing 'lateral sports' like hockey and squash.
This acts as shock absorbers and work with areas of the quadriceps like the Vastus Medialis Oblique (VMO). The VMO help keep the knee in alignment with the foot.
There are 3 muscles related to the glutes: Gluteus maximus, medius and minimus. Whilst people can work the glute maximus with the bridge exercise, the medius and minimus is commonly neglected. This can be a problem as these muscles are of key importance to knee alignment and stabilisation.
Knee pain isn't a sign of aging. It is a sign it is not being supported enough to carry out its function of flexion and extension. By implementing these 6 exercises and applying the 5 important principles your experience of knee injuries reducing dramatically.

20 years ago, a bunch of kids (Danilo Uncino, Sara Cominato, Alice
Bonzani, Luca Cagnetta, Massimo Cantori) have seen something so
unbelievable that it shattered their world and destroyed their friendship.
But especially Alan (Roberto D'Antona) has never forgotten about what he
saw, and has since become an archeologist, trying to find out the truth by
studying legends. And what he has found out is as unbelievable than it
looked back when, they have actually witnessed an old man, Oras (Carmelo
Bacchetta) sending a witch, Kaisha (Annamaria Lorusso) to hell. Thing is,
since then someone, Sirio (Alex D'Antona), has summoned Kaisha again, and
she goes on a rampage to conquer the world, starting with Alan's hometown.
And soon, the little village is riddled by zombie attacks and similar
ungodly occurances - reason enough for Alan, who has been all over the
world on the job to return home again and hook up with his friends from
back when, Leo (Francesco Emulo), Asia (Nicole Blatto), Mia (Erica
Verzotti) and Alex (Fabrizio Narciso). Now while Alan has an idea what's
going on, he has no idea how to fight Kaisha, but fortunately Asia has
since taken a job in Oras' curio shop, and Oras thinks he recognises the
chosen one who can send Kaisha back to Hell in Alan and hands him magic
daggers. There's just one problem, to get even into striking distance to
Kaisha, Alan and friends have to fight their way through her zombie army,
and even if they're eventually joined by a cynic cop (Andrea Milan) and
two air-headed martial artists (Michael Segal, Carmelo Bacchetta), that's
anything but an easy task ...
Now of course, the story The
Last Heroes tells isn't exactly an original one, in fact such stories
have been a staple of 1980s Italian horror, from Lucio
Fulci's Gothic Trilogy downwards, and makes little if any
attempts to hide its influences. But that's not at all to say The Last
Heroes is a simply derivative movie, as it more than makes up what it
might lack in originality in style, atmosphere, suspense, gruesomeness ...
and humour, the one element yesteryear's shockers from Italy so sadly
lacked. But that doesn't make this movie a moronic parody at all, the
humour, that's mostly very Italian in style, is well-placed, never
detracts from suspense or atmosphere or destroys tension, but it makes its
rather esoteric concept more relatable. And apparently the whole cast was
in on the joke, and especially Michael Segal as air-headed martial artist
is really hilarious.
Really cool genre entertainment in all.

"We've enhanced aspects of it — including staging and characters — that are unique and help reinvent the classic," said director Matthew Davidson. "I would say our set and soundtrack, as well as some previously unseen characters, really set this production apart."
Davidson said he is focusing on the show's timeless themes and trials.
"It doesn't matter who you are or where you are — everyone can relate to the struggle of making new friends. And even set in a barn with a pig and a spider, those problems are relatable and heart-warming," he said. "This show is truly for all ages. I like to say our youth productions are similar to Pixar films. Children and youth love them, but also take them at face value while parents are also able to really be moved and dig into the deeper layers. There is something in this show for everyone."
The cast includes more than 15 people ranging in age from 7 to 18 years old.
"Charlotte teaches the importance of friendship, love, and sacrifice," said 18-year-old Courtney Cox, who plays Charlotte. "This character has been a fun and exciting challenge as I have learned to push my theater abilities in all new ways, which I hope to carry with me forever."
The cast explained recently that there's a lot to love about this family friendly show. As Templeton the rat, 17-year-old Samuel Porter said he is impressed with the set design by Dale Johnson.
"I really enjoy playing with my character and seeing the different things I can do with it," he said.
While 8-year-old Blake Fox who plays Fern said, 'my favorite part is that I love animals."
Katherine Holmes, 18, plays Edith Zuckerman and is narrator.
"For me, 'Charlotte's Web' is all about relationships, and about making something out of the life you have and not wanting something different for yourself. If we can get one of those messages across, I think we will have accomplished something great," Holmes said.
Tickets are $10 for adults (ages 13 and up) and $5 for children 2 to 12 years old; ages 2 and under are free. Showtimes are 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday (April 27-28, 2018) and 3 p.m. Sunday, April 29, at Alamance Fine Arts Academy, 355 South Main St., Burlington.

An apology is unnecessary. This is a horrible time of year normally, and then the addded trauma of your babies' anniversary does not help. You are in my thoughts and prayers too. And I just read your last post- I am glad your friend got it, at least as much as she could. She's right- it's only a year. It's such a short period of time in the grand scheme of things. And it's unrealistic to think you should be "better". It is just way too hard, and way too painful. I hope you are extra good to yourself this week. Your boys are in my thoughts.

You don't need to apologize. I'm feeling the same way, the need to pull back, read less, get away from all the heartache I feel. I think of you and the twins all the time. Holding you close, Sue. So very close. XO.

No apology, lady (and why, oh why did you make me have Nirv.ana songs in my head?). It's not easy this time of year and pulling back is the only thing that's keeping me from crumpling.
Much love to you, you and the boys are always in my heart.

My apologies for not getting to this post until now. No need for you to step back, especially now. I relived my last week and days in vivid technicolor -- amusing, given that I had completely lost my short term memory and I couldn't even tell you what I had for breakfast a few hours earlier.
Know we're here for you, remembering right with you, even if you're not posting. I'm so sorry S.

I suck at comenting and blogging right now. You have every reason to want to pull inward right now. Don't apologize for being a normal, grieving mom. Losing your boys is hard enough, having the loss come on Christmas Day is just cruel.
Know that you are being thought of by many and that no matter how it feels, you are not alone, ever.

Butter and line the base and sides of a 20cm springform tin. Blitz the digestives in a food processor until you get fine crumbs, or bash in a sandwich bag with a rolling pin. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the melted butter until it looks like damp sand. Tip into the prepared tin, and smooth the mixture with the back of a spoon to make an even base, then chill.
Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water. Put the raspberries in a food processor or in a jug using a stick blender, and blitz to a smooth purée. Sieve out the seeds. Warm the raspberry sauce in a small pan with 1 tbsp sugar until just starting to steam, then pour over 1 drained gelatine leaf in a bowl and stir to dissolve.

Fold the strawberry purée into one with a few drops of food colouring to make it light pink, the raspberry mix with the gelatine into another with more food colouring so it's dark pink, and the vanilla bean paste into the third.
Spoon the raspberry filling over the biscuit base, smoothing the surface so it's flat. Next, add the strawberry filling, gently smoothing over without disturbing the bottom layer, then repeat with the vanilla mixture, using a clean spoon to level the top. A spatula or knife might help with this to keep from dragging the below layers. Chill for 4 hrs or overnight.
Run a knife around the sides of the cake tin between the cheesecake and the parchment, and loosen the base. Transfer to a cake stand, and smooth the sides, using a palette knife, to neaten the layers. Mix the chocolate with a few drops of lemon extract, if using.

With large volume attacks on companies such as LinkedIn and Uber, businesses should be concerned about cybersecurity safety and preparedness now more than ever. With the number of attacks predicted to increase in 2018, it should be a top priority for businesses, no matter how big or small. However, with so much information on the internet, there are a lot of misconceptions about cybersecurity out there and it can be hard to defend against all of these without confirming their validity. Did you know that small businesses made up over half of last year's breach victims?
The assumption that a business or an individual is incapable of being hacked is dangerously false and should not be considered. It is a must for every employee to be involved with cybersecurity efforts and always keep it in mind when dealing with work-related matters. Cybersecurity is an ideal that requires constant efforts and should always be one of the top priorities for any business. Make sure your company is safe by educating yourself on the top 10 cybersecurity myths below.

Teachers represent faculty and staff who are responsible for using a variety of instructional strategies to address individual students' strengths and needs, thereby ensuring each student has an opportunity to learn and succeed.
As teachers interact with their students while providing instruction, they play a very important role in establishing a safe, supportive learning environment. Positive teacher–student relationships can have long-lasting effects on the social, emotional, and academic development of youth. Teachers can improve the school's environment by actively seeking to prevent physical violence, bullying, and emotional abuse in their classrooms and throughout the school by building relationships with students and staff.
Teachers can develop culturally responsive classrooms to foster a collaborative environment.
Creating a culturally responsive classroom allows teachers to understand the differences among the cultures in the classroom, while still recognizing and valuing individual student needs. Understanding the diverse needs of students can assist teachers with creating relationships with students that are built upon collaboration. In turn, students will feel more empowered to speak out, ask questions, and give input to classroom procedures.
Teachers can create welcoming classrooms for all families in which they feel invited to become a part of their child's learning.
Not only do quality relationships among teachers and students improve students' academic success, but fostering positive relationships with students' families also can contribute to students' success in the classroom. Involving families in the educational process should not be viewed as a one-time event (e.g., teacher–parent conferences), but rather as a continual process in which teachers begin to understand the needs of the families they serve and their diverse backgrounds.
Students are more likely to connect with their schools and communities if they have a positive, trusting relationship with their teachers.
Positive relationships and attitudes among teachers and students can support an environment in which students feel safe and learning takes place. Students feel more connected with their school and community when an adult provides encouragement to students to become actively involved within and outside the classroom. Teachers also can coordinate links between the school and community resources to further provide services that enhance classroom instruction.

FLORENCE, Ala. (WHNT) - The quest to become the top school system in the state continues in Florence as the system receives another accolade. This recognition is not for the students, but the teachers.
According to Niche.com, Florence City Schools is one of the top 10 systems in the state for a teacher to work. Superintendent Janet Womack sees the list as another way to affirm they are working in the right direction. She said student achievement doesn't come without excellence in the teaching profession.
"You must work to elevate both at the same time," Womack explained. "As you are helping your students rise to the top, you have to put things in place that will help to arrive there also."
One program Womack credits for elevating teachers is Impact 80. Florence partnered with UNA to offer teachers an advanced degree at a reduced cost. Womack said the program was made possible by a private donor paying for a third of the cost for each teacher. And with an advanced degree, teachers are able to make a higher salary.
"We have invested in our teachers and helped them see how they can also continue to climb on that salary schedule, which honestly, is a part of this ranking as well," Womack stated.
And Womack said they have worked tirelessly to create a work environment and culture that teachers desire to come to everyday.
Womack expects to climb higher on the list in the coming years as statistics catch up with the current environment. She said most of the statistics used are on average about two years old.

Freer Auto Body named RBGA Small Business of the Month
ALTON — The RiverBend Growth Association recently named Freer Auto Body as the Small Business of the Month for July.
The award is given by the RiverBend Growth Association (RBGA) every month to a regional small business that is dedicated to community service.
"Community service is what made us what we are today," owner and president Tim Freer said. "We try to give back as much as we can."
Under the inspiration of David Freer, then an 18-year-old graduate of Ranken Technical College, Freer Auto Body was founded in 1991. Their first space was a 30-foot by 50-foot building.
David Freer died in 2008, but his family, including brother Tim, Tim's wife Carrie, and parents Mike and Margaret, continue to operate the business today. Their current space spans more than 17,000-square-feet.
"We didn't get where we are today by not working hard," Margaret Freer said.
In addition to serving on several community boards, the family-operated business has painted free of charge several vehicles, items and equipment including fire trucks, Salvation Army bells, rescue boats, water buggies and plaques. The company also hosts blood drives and fundraisers and raises money for scholarships.
The family is one of the top supporters of Community Christmas, which is sponsored by the Telegraph and the United Way providing generously to families in need at Christmastime. Tim Freer's daughters, Taylor, 12, and Lily, 9, also chip in volunteer time. Every year, they help organize the open-to-the-public event "Christmas in July," a jump-start to and in preparation for Community Christmas fundraising.
The pair of sisters will host Christmas in July from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Friday, July 29, at Freer Auto Body, where the girls, along with friends and family, will sell and serve a sloppy Joe lunch. This is the event's eighth year running. In its first year, it raised $2,500. Last year, it raised $25,000, Tim Freer said.
Freer's daughters have been recognized by United Way as "outstanding community volunteers" in the years since the founding of the event.
This is the fourth time that Freer Auto Body has won the RBGA's Small Business of the Month award. It also received the Captains of the RiverBend Award in 2004 and 2013. In 2011, the business received the Golden Leaf Award from the Godfrey Women's Club.
The company, now in its 25th year, offers auto body repair, custom fabrication, accessories, insurance claim assistance and rental cars. The company employs 20 individuals, including the family.
For more information on Freer Auto Body, visit www.freerautobody.com or call 618-466-6151. Freer Auto Body is located at 4512 Alby St. in Godfrey.
The RBGA is both the chamber of commerce and the economic development organization for the communities of the Riverbend. Each month one association business is selected as Small Business of the Month. The monthly winners receive approximately $3,500 worth of marketing. The association can be reached at 618-467-2280.

"I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like
the most High."—Isaiah 14:14
"And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ;
or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
"For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall
shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible,
even the elect."—Mark 13:21, 22
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;"—2 Timothy 4:3
"That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight
of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;"—Ephesians 4:14
Meister Eckhart, Gerard Groote and Brothers of the Common Life
"Simply defined, mysticism is the immediate experience of oneness with God. It is this experience that characterized the teaching of Meister Eckhart (1260–1327), who sparked a mystical movement in western Germany.
"Eckhart was a well-educated Dominican theologian…whose message on the union of the soul with God was typical of mysticism. According to Eckhart, such a union was attainable by all who pursued it wholeheartedly. Eckhart's movement spread from Germany into the Low Countries, where it took on a new form called the Modern Devotion, founded by Gerard Groote (1340–1384).
"After a religious conversion, Groote entered a monastery for several years of contemplation before reentering the world. His messages were typical of a practical mysticism. To achieve true spiritual communion with God, people
must imitate Jesus and lead lives dedicated to serving the needs of their fellow
human beings…
"Eventually, Groote attracted a group of followers who came to be known as
the Brothers of the Common Life…They also established schools throughout Germany and the Netherlands in which they stressed their message of imitating
the life of Jesus by serving others…"
—Western Civilization: Volume I: To 1715, by Jackson J. Spielvogel, p. 303
Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ
At age 15, Thomas à Kempis (1380–1471) went to a school conducted by the Brethren of the Common Life. Thomas, thought to be the the author of the
short devotional book, The Imitation of Christ, was a follower of Geert Groote mentioned above, and Florentius Radewijns, the founders of the Brethren
of the Common Life.
The Imitation of Christ, first published anonymously, in Latin, ca. 1418,
is a short manual of devotion, named for the title of the first of four books.
TIOC was heavily influenced by the mystic goal of oneness with God and the
Modern devotion of Gerard Groote and the Brothers of the Common Life.
Thomas was apparently (accidentally) buried alive, in that splinters were later found embedded under the fingernails of his corpse. He was denied canonization on the grounds that a saint would not fight death in this way.
—Wilkins, R.: A History of Man's Obsession and Fears, 1990
A couple sources claim that The Imitation of Christ is second to the Bible in
being widely read. The Imitation of Christ is praised by Protestants and Roman Catholics; the Jesuits give it an official place among their "exercises;" and it is in full conformity with the Catholic faith both of the time it was written and with the Catholic faith today.
The teaching in The Imitation of Christ is 180-out (the complete opposite) of what is taught in God's Word. TIOC with its major wresting of scripture, is a very contemplative book, focused on suffering, doing good works to appease God and be holy, guilt trips from the Voice of Christ who was unkind and demanding to the Disciple, and references a number of Roman Catholic doctrines such as purgatory, as well as other unbiblical thinking.
But mostly, TIOC promotes the actual eating of Jesus' body in the Eucharist
(in a very sensual manner, alluding to a physical marriage relationship to God)
as the way to be holy and become Jesus (have oneness/union/divinity with god). One can apparently eat "Jesus" and achieve holiness and divinity, but never be completely forgiven of sins.
God's WORD
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."—Romans 6:23
"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."
—John 17:17
I have included a few quotes (PG-13) from the 18 short chapters in An Invitation to the Holy Communion, one of the four short books in TIOC. In these few chapters, a harsh, condescending Voice of Christ instructs a Disciple on how to have oneness with God through the Holy Communion (Eucharist) by eating the real body and the real blood of Jesus, doing good works, and what sounds like eucharistic adoration.
This is not the Jesus of the Bible, but another Jesus and another gospel. To me, the book destroys confidence in the goodness and kindness of the Lord and His Word, presenting Man's Word and experience as an alternative—isn't that what the serpent did in the garden?
excerpts: An Invitation to the Holy Communion from
Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis
Chapter 3. It Is Profitable To Receive Communion Often

of the Body of Christ in Mass and Communion.
Chapter 8. The Offering of Christ on the Cross; Our Offering
The Voice of Christ
Offer yourself to Me, therefore, and give yourself entirely for God…I even
gave My whole Body and Blood for food that I might be all yours, and you
Mine forever.
Chapter 12. The Communicant Should Prepare Himself for Christ with Great Care
The Voice of Christ
"…You have need of Me. I do not need you…You come to be sanctified and united with Me…
Chapter 13. With All Her Heart the Devout Soul Should Desire Union with Christ in the Sacrament
The Disciple
"…Surely there is no other people so fortunate as to have their god near them, as You, our God, are present everywhere to the faithful, to whom You give Yourself to be eaten and enjoyed for their daily solace…
Chapter 14. The Ardent Longing of Devout Men for the Body
of Christ
Chapter 15. The Grace of Devotion is Acquired Through Humility and Self-Denial
Chapter 17. The Burning Love and Strong Desire to Receive Christ
The Disciple
Let all people, races, and tongues praise You and with the greatest joy and most ardent devotion…And when they have received the longed-for devotion and blissful union, and…have retired from Your holy, Your celestial table…
God's WORD
"For all those things hath mine hand made…saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word."—Isaiah 66:2
"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise."—Psalm 51:17
"But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
"How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
"These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit."—Jude 17–19
"This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish."—James 3:15

The New York Giants surprised the NFL world during the first round of the draft when they took Ohio State cornerback Eli Apple with the tenth pick.
Though Apple was considered a first-round talent, mock drafts mostly had him going lower, and few of them had the Giants taking him with a pick many felt they needed to nail.
ESPN's NFL insider John Clayton recently discussed the pick on 97.5 The Fanatic, and said that it appears Apple wasn't really the Giants' first choice. Instead, the team had an "intelligence failure" that led them to "reach" for Apple.
Clayton said:
"For the Giants, clearly it was intelligence failure. It wasn't intelligence as far as the selection, but the intelligence in the office, because I was hearing, like everyone else, that John Mara wanted to take Jack Conklin. He was going to try [to] push Jerry Reese to do that.
"However, Jerry and the staff were looking to take Leonard Floyd. ... Guess what, two teams jumped the Giants and now they had to reach a little bit to take Eli Apple. That kind of diminishes it a little bit."
Clearly, this isn't a ringing endorsement for the Giants front office.
Prior to the draft, teams like to put out smokescreens to hide their intentions of whom they plan to draft. From what Clayton says, it sounds like the Giants did a horrible job of that, as their top two prospects were snagged before the tenth pick, with the Bears actually jumping them in a trade to take Floyd with the ninth pick.
Furthermore, if the Giants weren't entirely sold on Apple as the tenth pick, it shows a lack of quick thinking to not try to trade down, select Apple or another prospect lower, and get an extra pick in the process.
This says nothing of how Apple could help a revamped Giants defense, but it's not a promising sign for how the front office handled the draft, particularly after a massive spending spree in free agency.

My husband used to ask the same question, "Have you seen my _____?" To which I would actually answer "yes" and say where, or "no". But if my answer was "no", he would then ask, "Well where would I have put/left it?"

My husband lays stuff down in really random places, however, he does not immediately write them on a post it.
I am not kidding you when I say that in the 8 years that I have known him, he has lost at least (and I mean, lost and we have never found them to this day)
5 sets of car keys
2 cell phone
his drivers license, twice
his bank card 5 or more times
all of his little tools (screwdrivers, etc) he just goes and buys more
his whole wallet once
1, just 1 of his Birkenstock sandals
about 8,000 lighters (yes, he smokes)
about 35,000 ink pens
This is why I have to take control.

Here's the flaw in your logic: Y'all ask "Have you seen my _____" when that's not actually what you mean. That question implies "Do you know what ________ looks like?" What you should ask is "Do you know where my ________ is/are?" While the responses you listed are still a possibility, I'm much more apt to answer the ACCURATE question with an accurate "nope."

I do something similar if I am having a hard time remembering someones name, yet it's on the tip of my tounge. I will go through the alphabet in my head (sometimes out loud too). When I get to the letter of their name I can see it mentally spelled out in my head. 9 times out of 10 this method always works for me.

Today is my baby boy's birthday! Excuse me while I cry in the corner… I can't believe my baby is 6 years old already! Since it's his birthday, I'm catering to his every want on this special day. Which means, I would only make my boy's favorite breakfast on this special day: Chocolate Chip Pancakes!
Even though I love to spoil my kids, nutritious foods are still of upmost importance to me. These little ones are still growing, so I try to ensure that they get all the important nutrients they need, even in their favorite carb-heavy, favorite "naughty" foods.
This is why I love Kodiak Cakes and always have a box of the flapjack mix on hand. We've seen this ingredient before in my Food Friday mug cake edition. Well, today I implemented it in the simplest way, the way it's intended to be used: pancakes!
The line-up of ingredients:
2 cups Kodiak Cake mix
2 cups Unsweetened Almond Milk
2 eggs
10-15 chocolate chips
(makes 3 pancakes as big as a 6 year old's head)
That's it! A childhood favorite, but loaded with protein. I combined the first three ingredients and poured the batter into my largest skillet. Once the first side started to brown, I added the chocolate chips. Super-amazing mom pro-tip: don't add the chocolate chips too soon or they stick to the pan and create a nasty burn on your golden brown pancake. I wouldn't know from experience, of course, I make perfectly crisp, golden brown flapjacks, every time!
Now, if I were having this deliciousness, I would add sliced banana, walnuts, and sugar-free syrup. My boy chose Nutella and sugar-free syrup.
Macro Breakdown for one pancake:
41g Carbs | 7g Fat | 23g Protein

The very next morning, Beatrice is back in the fields with her newborn strapped to her back, pausing only now and then to nurse or soothe him.
Tephna kneels by Jaclyn's side, doing her best to pick up her friend's slack.
Her own little brother Adam plays happily in the mud. There are no other children of his age for him to play with, but he has their sister Oriel's little toy bear to keep him company.
Every morning of the season, Tephna's father lets her bring in the fruit from the garden before they walk up to the demesne for the day.
By Wednesday evening, the harvest is in. On Thursday, Henry and Beatrice have their son blessed and named, and invite their neighbours to celebrate the Feast of the Angels with them.
Walter is the name they have chosen. After lunch, they let Tephna hold him for a little while.
She and Jaclyn have their first taste of nectar that afternoon.
Everything starts to seem very funny.
Outside, some of the younger children bob for apples.
The brewer's boys soon get bored and give up, leaving the competition to Kinborough and Oriel.
Kinborough's brother comes over to cheer her on.
Oriel snags the victory by just one apple.
But she is not a gracious winner.

Costa Atlantica To Cruise Asia In 2013
Italian cruise line Costa Cruises has announced it will raise capacity in Asia for the 2013 cruise season, sending the 85,700-GRT Costa Atlantica to the region. The 2,680-passenger ship joins the Costa Victoria, which is being deployed to the Far East this year together with the Costa Classica, to double the line's offering as it looks to diversify beyond its native Europe.
From May to June 2013, Costa Atlantica will operate out of Singapore on a series of Southeast Asian itineraries. She will visit ports including Koh Samui, Kuantan, Laem Chabang, Langkawi, Malacca, Penang and Port Klang on 3-, 4- and 7-day cruises, which can be combined into a 14-day voyage.
The ship then repositions to Shanghai, homeporting in the Chinese city from June through October 2013. She will sail short cruises to Japan and South Korea from China, calling at Busan, Fukuoka, Hososhima, Jeju Island and Kagoshima.
Launched in 2000, Costa Atlantica celebrates Italian cinema and the arts, which serves as the inspiration for her interiors. Each passenger deck is named after a movie by Italian film director Federico Fellini, with images from masterpieces "La Dolce Vita" and "Madame Butterfly" and recreations of Venice's historic Caffe Florian. 1,057 cabins and suites, 4 restaurants and 12 bars, as well as a host of wellness and entertainment facilities ensure guests cruise in comfort and are kept occupied at sea.

Pig Races
For the pigs, we've patterned the races after horse racing's Triple Crown. Our Triple 'Pig' Crown series features 90 races throughout October and three "marquee" ones – The PIGtucky Derby, SQUEAKness and BOARmont Stakes. Visitors can wager on their favorite pig and will receive a numbered raffle ticket. At the end of the race, a ticket will be drawn from the winning pigs slot and that individual will win a prize from one of our sponsors.
The month-long event raises money by allowing people to place bets on who they believe will win each race. Those bets are given in the form of a donation. Each "betting" participant receives a special pig nose and if their pig wins the race, they'll be entered into a drawing for a special prize provided by our sponsors. To date, the Maris Farms Triple 'Pig' Crown event has raised more than $25,000 for St. Jude & Seattle Children's Hospital during its 13-year run.
