Biografía y carrera artística

1994-2012: Primeros años de vida e inicios de su carrera
Ashley Nicolette Frangipane nació el 29 de septiembre de 1994 en Nueva Jersey. Sin embargo, se identifica más con la ciudad de Nueva York. Tiene dos hermanos menores, su padre es afroamericano y su madre caucásica. Se inició en el mundo de la música mientras crecía, originalmente tocando el violín, la viola, y el violonchelo hasta que cambió estos instrumentos por la guitarra acústica cuando tenía 14 años. Al principio planeó especializarse en Bellas Artes e ir a la universidad, pero después de darse cuenta de que no podía permitírselo, debido a los costos, se inscribió en un colegio comunitario para estudiar composición, con la que encontró una conexión después de su primer semestre. Con 18 años, tenía problemas financieros y la música se convirtió en su medio para pagar sus deudas. Tocó en presentaciones acústicas en diferentes ciudades, con varios nombres artísticos. Finalmente escogió Halsey, ya que es un anagrama de su nombre y a su vez una calle en Brooklyn en la que pasó su adolescencia.

2014–2016: Room 93 y Badlands

En 2014, Halsey grabó un canción llamada «Ghost» y la publicó en su cuenta de SoundCloud. Posteriormente la canción hizo que ganara atención, y después de varias reuniones con distintas discográficas, firmó un contrato con Astralwerks. Seguidamente, lanzó Hurricane como su sencillo debut para poco después lanzar su EP debut titulado Room 93 (EP) el 28 de octubre de 2014. El EP fue "visual" ya que contenía vídeos adicionales para cuatro de las cinco canciones que lo componen. Además, en marzo de 2015, Halsey fue la persona más comentada en línea durante el evento South by Southwest.
Actuó como apertura de la banda The Kooks durante su gira en 2014, también recorrió varias ciudades de Estados Unidos en marzo y abril de 2015 como parte de su gira The American You(th) Tour, en compañía de la banda Young Rising Sons y Olivver the kid como invitado especial.

Estilo musical e influencias

Mientras crecía, Halsey se vio influenciada por los gustos musicales tanto de su padre como de su madre. Los principales géneros que escuchaba eran el old school rap y el pop, siendo este último el que más la inspiró durante su infancia y el que la llevó hasta donde se encuentra ahora. Ella menciona que no tuvo como modelos a Jimmy Buffett o The Beach Boys ya que sus padres eran muy jóvenes, pero la criaron con la música de bandas como Coldplay y Nirvana. Sin embargo, las artistas que más admira son Alanis Morissette y Amy Winehouse, refiriéndose especialmente a su forma honesta y auténtica al componer temas. Asimismo, admite que una de sus canciones favoritas es «You Oughta Know» de Morissette, a la que describe como «irónica, sin complejos y autobiográfica». Del mismo modo admira a Amy Winehouse. La cantante ha dicho que es un influencia masiva para ella y que «quiere continuar con su mensaje pero a su propia manera».

Otro de los artistas a los que cita es Matty Healy de la banda The 1975, su capacidad para componer y su desinterés son aspectos que ella admira; describe su contenido musical como «lleno de diálogo y lugares». De la misma manera, comentó que crea una imagen honesta y auténtica en sus canciones, aludiendo: «hace música pop pero sin importar si encaja en la fórmula».

Halsey también menciona a The Cure, Gin Blossoms, Tupac, Biggie, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony y Slick Rick. Los 90s son una época que inspiran su música debido a que las cantautoras femeninas tenían más oportunidades, de acuerdo a lo expresado por ella: «si hubiera nacido hace 20 años, habría sido un éxito hace mucho tiempo.». Halsey además ha señalado públicamente que se inspiró en artistas como Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, Carrie Underwood y Shania Twain.

Su música incorpora los géneros pop e indie principalmente, Halsey se refiere a sí misma como «auténtica». No tiene un rango vocal alto; sus letras honestas y emotivas conectan inmediatamente con las personas, su sonido y sus canciones cuentan historias muy personales. Describe a su contenido musical como algo que trata sobre «tristeza, desamor y sexo», ya que para ella esta línea es casi satírica. Se centra en mantener «una cantidad saludable de vulnerabilidad» mientras conserva la «sensación de conciencia y autenticidad» en su música.

Proyectos

Halsey acompañó a la banda Imagine Dragons durante la etapa norteamericana de su gira Smoke and Mirrors Tour entre el 3 de junio y 1 de agosto de 2015. También ha aparecido en algunas entrevistas y presentaciones, entre ellos Last Call with Carson Daly.

El 13 de noviembre de 2015, el cantante Justin Bieber publicó su nuevo álbum "Purpose" en el cual Halsey colabora en la canción "The Feeling"

También ha colaborado con MAC Cosmetics creando un labial en la colección Future Forward, junto a Lion Babe, Tinashe y Dej Loaf.

El segundo álbum de estudio de Halsey titulado "Hopeless Fountain Kingdom" fue lanzado el 2 de junio de 2017.

El 1 de mayo de 2020 colaboró con el rapero Machine Gun Kelly en el álbum Tickets to My Downfall con la canción Forget me too.

Vida personal
Halsey es abiertamente bisexual y ha anunciado que está reflexionando sobre su identidad de género. A 2021, usa pronombres femeninos y neutros.

En agosto de 2017 inició una relación sentimental con el rapero estadounidense G-Eazy la cual terminaría a inicios de julio de 2018 tras una infidelidad por parte del rapero.

A finales de 2018, comenzó una relación sentimental con el cantante británico Yungblud, la cual acabó por motivos personales a finales de octubre de 2019.

A finales de octubre de 2019, se confirmó que comenzó una relación con el actor Evan Peters, separándose a principios de 2020.

En enero de 2021 anunció su primer embarazo, producto de su relación con el productor y escritor turco Alev Aydin. Su hijo, Ender Ridley Aydin, nació el 14 de julio de 2021.

Walk into any gym or weight room in the world and you'll find fitness obsessed men and women who have at least one thing in common, they love to sweat it out! Some of them are cardio queens, others are meathead gym rats, and others are there because it makes them feel good to know they went to the gym that day (even if they barely worked out.) While all of these people have a respect for fitness in common, when it comes to opinions over weight lifting gloves for men, this becomes a pretty divided crowd. The debate is not about whether or not they exist (duh) it's about which are better, or whether or not to use them at all. We decided to break it down for you and offer up our opinions and reviews not just as a manufacturer of gym gloves but as a collective group of actual personal trainers.
1. Material – The most ideal material for just about any gym glove is going to be Leather. It's the most durable material and the most long lasting. You'll see a lot of knock off weight lifting gloves for men that are made from synthetic "leather like" materials. This isn't because it's a superior product, it just means that it's cheaper to make. At GymPaws® we use the highest grade Napa Leather which is tanned using a vegetable oil process which leave the leather supple and moisture resistant.
2. Uses – This doesn't seem obvious to everyone, afterall a glove is a glove is a glove right? Not right. Gloves and lifting grips vary by their intended use. With the popularity of Crossfit Workouts more and more people are starting to realize the benefits of bodyweight workouts. If you're familiar with bodyweight exercises then you know they require little to know actual gym equipment, however they are no less grueling on your hands. Generally speaking half finger gloves are often too bulky and unncessary for bodyweight workouts. While you can definitely use them, if you're looking for a pair of crossfit gloves you may find that a full glove actually makes your hands and grip sweat more than you'd like. Here's an great example of GymPaws® Original Leather Lifting Grips being used for Bodyweight Skull Crushers.
3. Return Policies and Customer Reviews – If you're buying gym gloves online it's hard to judge how they're going to fit and feel. For this reason it's a good idea to make sure that the manufacturer offers an appropriate return policy. Not all weight lifting gloves for men are created equal and you want to be sure you can return your purchase if you're not happy.
When it comes to gym gloves reviews, look for those customer reviews that are specific and offer some examples of what that particular customer used them for. Lots of gym glove manufacturers online employ less than legit practices for obtaining reviews and making it appear that they sell a popular product. Real customers will leave real reviews, and that's what you should be looking for.

RE: NBA Ref May Have Bet on Own Games [David Stefanini]
First I would like to say I think this is my fault. It seems this week all of my favorites are being thrown into the flames of hell. First we had the Michael Vick incident. This is my idol, the man I said I was when I was in the school yard in 8th grade running around the opponents left and right. Now the game I love the most, basketball, is coming under fire.
I can not agree with J. Mark English any more. When he says, "I don't think people quite realize or grasp the concept that gambling in sports from the very people involved in that sport is a cardinal sin" he can not be more correct. It seems a lot of us turn the other way or say it is ok, but the fact is it simply isn't.
If it turns out over the past few years this NBA official has been shaving points off a game this will be catastrophic to the NBA. Right now they are the third out of the four major sports in America. They will likely never catch baseball or football, and certainly will never fall below hockey (if that still is a sport). But the scars this will leave on the game will be tremendous, and people will not be able to turn the other way. Many fans would not be able to find it in them to trust the league.
Just think about it; if someone who has this much control on the game is betting on the game, and therefore trying to control the outcome that rightfully destroys any trust the fan could have in that league. David Stern has tried to clean up the image of the NBA with the dress code and the 'must play in college' rule; but as Mark said, this is going to harm the league far greater than any dress code or age of a player ever could. The NBA is going to have to make sure that no other NBA refs were involved in this other than Tim Donaghy.
Now I am a fan of due process, and in the case with Vick I think we should find evidence, and then convict because you are innocent until proven guilty. But all the reports I am hearing from numerous media posts does not look good for Tim. The FBI has him linked to countless games over at least the past 2 NBA seasons, probably more.
To go along with Mark English and myself, here is Marc Stein with his thoughts:
It's hard to believe that Barry Bonds can probably claim a greater share of the public's trust than the NBA at large, but that's the ugly reality confronting Stern. As even Stern himself termed it in a statement issued Friday afternoon, Donaghy is accused of betraying "the most sacred trust in professional sports."
To be completely honest, the story completely turns my stomach. I always knew it was a possibility but I never thought it could be a reality. Things like this are not supposed to happen. As Stein said, this is the "most sacred trust in professional sports." I now have the thought in my head that the some of the NBA games I watched as a kid were fixed, and it just makes me sick.
Even if the official is found innocent, the trust will still be greatly hurt. David Stern has to pray that Peyton Manning is tied to Michael Vick's dog fighting to get the headlines off the NBA. And even if Manning was to be found to have involvement, the NBA will still have much more severe long-term negative effects than the NFL could.
One last thing: Mark, please do not say Michael Jordan's story book ending was fabricated. He is my hero and if it is true, lets just imagine it isn't and never bring that up again.

Gandhinagar: In an admission to the Legislative Assembly, the Gujarat government on Monday stated that 184 Asiatic lions living in and around the Gir Wildlife Sanctuary in the state died in the last two years.
What was more astonishing was that out of the 184 lions that died, a total of 32 were declared dead due to "unnatural causes" in 2016 and 2017, reported The Mumbai Mirror.
According to records maintained by forest department officials, while 12 lions, including cubs, died of unnatural causes in 2016, the number was 20 for the year 2017.
In a statement addressed to the state assembly, Forest Minister Ganpat Vasava mentioned that 104 of the leonine creatures died under their watch in 2016 and 80 in 2017.
Shining a light on some reasons that account for "unnatural causes", Vasava said that animals often fall and drown into wells that are not equipped with parapet walls.
The minister also claimed that fencing along railway tracks and speed breakers on roads passing from the sanctuary area are among some of the measures that are being undertaken by the state government to curb such deaths.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this month inaugurated a seminar on the theme of 'Big Cats: Predators Under Threat' with Chief Minister Vijay Rupani among others in attendance. The state has sanctioned a total of Rs 40 crore for the preservation of Asiatic lions under the banner of "Project Lion", said Rupani.
Also at the seminar, Forest Minister Ganpat Vasava had claimed that the population of Asiatic Lions living in and around the Gir Sanctuary has increased to 46% in the last decade.
The Vijay Rupani-led Bhartiya Janata Party government now face the daunting question of whether it is better to be a live dog than a dead lion in the state of Gujarat.

Mah-e-Mir: Pakistan's bid for Oscars 2017
The critically acclaimed Mah-e-Mir, one of the best movies to come out from the resurging Pakistani film industry has been nominated by Pakistan's Academy Selection Committee as the country's official submission in the Best Foreign Language Film Award Category for the 89th Academy Awards. The film Mah-e-Mir was a departure from the usual fare owing to its intellectual content, stellar writing and superb acting coupled with brilliant music and as such was the number one choice of the committee members.
Distributed nationwide by HUM Films and Eveready Group of Companies, Mah-e-Mir is directed by Anjum Shahzad and written by Sarmad Sehbai. The story is set in contemporary times chronicling the life of a young anarchist poet. While denouncing traditions he goes through the sufferings of love, separation and poverty, which drive him to the edge. In all his sufferings, he discovers the 18th century poet Mir Taqi Mir and as the story progresses, he embodies the intense feelings of love, passion and creative madness of the poet. The film stars Fahad Mustafa, Iman Ali, Sanam Saeed, Alyy Khan and Manzar Sehbai in lead roles. The film's brilliant music score was by Shahi Hassan.
Mah-e-Mir was a critical success and appreciated by the public as well, as many people felt that movies like Mah-e-Mir were a welcome change from the usual fare that is coming out from the film industry these days with a throwback to the time when story, acting, dialogue and music would come together to create a masterpiece in which the beauty of the Urdu language is fully exposed.
Commenting on Mah-e-Mir's selection for submission to the Oscars, director Anjum Shahzad had this to say: "I am thrilled by the news. For an ensemble of extremely creative cast and crew this film is a labour of love. Each one of us is proud to be a part of it. I would like to thank the committee for considering our effort worthy of representation and would like to take this opportunity to thank the media, cinema owners and above all the audiences for supporting us."
The Pakistani Academy Selection Committee is chaired by two-time Academy Award and Emmy winning documentary filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy and also includes Iram Parveen Bilal as the charge d'affaires, Zeba Bakhtiar, Adnan Siddiqui, Hasan Zaidi, Sheema Kermani, Sarmad Khoosat, Jamshed Mahmood Raza, Jamil Dehlavi and Adnan Sarwar.
Speaking about why Mah-e-Mir was selected by the committee, Hasan Zaidi said "With its indulging cinematography and romanticism of the forgotten value of literature, Mah-e-Mir's characters and plot nostalgically captured the culture and struggle of the artiste, both by and in its creation. We are very excited to put it forth as a sample of Pakistan's rising standards of cinema."
Committee member Adnan Siddiqui shared what made him cast his vote in favour of Mah-e-Mir: "When Manzar Sehbai Sahib's character comes to meet the poet (Fahad Mustafa), and he talks about his understanding of literature, and Urdu literature in particular, that was the crux, the heart and soul of the movie for me".
The Chair de Affairs of the selection committee, Iram Bilal Parveen expressed how happy she is with the selection of Mah-e-Mir for the Oscars, and was especially thankful to the makers of Mah-e-Mir for their contribution to Pakistani Cinema, wishing them best of luck in their journey to the Oscars.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will announce the final list of Oscar nominees on 24th January, 2017, with the presentation show for the 89th Academy Awards scheduled to take place on 26th February 2017. It is hoped that Mah-e-Mir's local critical success will translate into international selection as well, which will be another feather in the cap of not only Pakistan's film industry but also Pakistan herself.

Q: iOS and Android webview: how to close webview and go back to App? I am developing a webpage which will be called by an iOS and an Android App using a webview.

*

*This webpage would prompt a form to the user

*The user have to fill the fields and submit the form

*Once the form is submitted I redirect the user to another URL

*When this final URL is loaded, I need to close the webview

Is it possible to to this within the webpage or is it something to be managed by the app which open the webview? And how could it be possible?
I read something about UIWebViewDelegate but I'm not sure if it could be the right solution.
Thank you

A: Use a hash in your final URL like http://domain.com/thanks.html#closeWebview then watch URL.
On Android :
mWebview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
    @Override
    public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
        super.onPageFinished(view, url);
        if (url.endsWith("#closeWebview")){
            mWebview.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    }
});

A: You can use UIWebViewDelegate methods to track if the page has been loaded and perform any operation:
-(void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView
-(void)webView:(UIWebView *)webView didFailLoadWithError:(NSError *)error
-(void)webViewDidStartLoad:(UIWebView *)webView

For eg: you could use didFinish like:
-(void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView{
     if(finalURLReached)
         [self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

A: Solution with new WKWebView (UIWebView is deprecated!):

*

*Listen to navigation events via WKNavigationDelegate
webView.navigationDelegate = myNavigationDelegate // or use self when implementing it in your own WebView ViewController

*Listen to certain trigger URL in this delegate
func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, decidePolicyFor navigationAction: WKNavigationAction, decisionHandler: @escaping (WKNavigationActionPolicy) -> Void) {
print("request: (navigationAction.request.description)")
    if navigationAction.request.description.hasSuffix("/yourFinishUrlEnding") {
        print("url matches...")
        decisionHandler(.allow)
        closeWebview()
    } else {
        decisionHandler(.allow)
    }
}

*Close WebView (should works in all presentation variants)
Add this to your assigned WKNavigationDelegate:
func closeWebview() {
    if(controller.presentingViewController != nil && (nil == controller.navigationController || controller.navigationController?.viewControllers.count < 2 )){
        controller.dismiss(animated: true, completion: completion)
    }else{
        controller.navigationController?.delegate = nil;
        // self.animationInteractor.forceCompleteAnimation(.Left)
        let c = controller.navigationController?.viewControllers.count
        let ct = c! - 2;
        controller.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
        if controller.navigationController?.viewControllers[ct] is UITransitionViewController {
            controller.navigationController?.transitioningDelegate = controller.navigationController?.viewControllers[ct] as! UITransitionViewController;
        }
    }
}

Our Story & How We Started
Arizona Mom Benefits From Provision Project
No one should have to make a decision between, "Should I pay my mortgage, utilities, buy groceries or miss out on a medical treatment?" This is especially true when you're a single mom who is battling Stage 4 cancer. This was exactly the situation that Arizona mom, Tiffany, found herself in several months ago.
"In 2004 I was diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer. I found out I was five weeks pregnant right before my mastectomy was scheduled," she shared. Tiffany had her daughter, Ezri, in February, had her mastectomy and went on Tamoxifen.
In 2010, "My oncologist said I was 'considered cured,'" she said. "He didn't really base it on anything scientific. It was just his opinion." Then in January 2011, she asked her regular doctor if she'd run a tumor marker test. "In February 2011 I found out the cancer had metastasized to the bone, and I was Stage 4."
She started immediate, high levels of chemo. During all of this, her daughter's father left, and Tiffany was a newly single parent on disability struggling to pay the bills while fighting cancer. "I used up my savings. My family had a fundraiser to help me out while I waited for the disability payments to come in," she said, adding, "I was living on less than half of my income with 100% of the bills being my responsibility along with my treatments."
In September 2014 Tiffany was faced with the decision of paying the mortgage to keep a roof over their heads, paying their utility bills and/or paying for the holistic treatments she'd been taking with a naturopathic doctor. "I really do credit my naturopath with helping to keep me healthy and to keeping me here."
Tiffany & daughter, Ezri
Tiffany had applied for many grants in the past to help with money for treatments and living expenses and said, "Sometimes you'd hear back, other times you wouldn't. It wasn't very personal." Then she heard about the Provision Project. "I applied, and they got back to me in less than a week, and they helped me pay my electric bill and for my naturopathic bills. They were a God send." The process was easy and personal, she shared. "It's scary to be at a point in your life where you have to decide whether you should skip a treatment that could help save your life or pay your electric bills. You don't want to have to make compromises when your life is in the balance."
The process and the help the Provision Project offered were, "pretty amazing," she said.
Tiffany is a member of a private Facebook breast cancer support group, Booby Buddies, and is in The Living Room of that group – a group dedicated to those ladies fighting Stage 4 breast cancer. "I've been a member of the groups for about a year, and I really recommend it to anyone who has been diagnosed. There is so much support there. You can ask questions, learn from others' experiences and just ask for help or a prayer," she said. "My family is so supportive, but sometimes they just don't understand all that you're going through. It's comforting to have the support of the ladies in the group."
Tiffany said that when she was having a problem with her car she mentioned it in the Booby Buddies group, and Jan James, the founder of the Booby Buddies and executive director of the Provision Project, reached out to friends who own a local mechanical shop near Tiffany. They agreed to take a look at her car at no cost. "When I went there, the mechanics said they felt compelled to gift me with the service for the car (close to a $4,000 repair)," she said. "I couldn't believe the generosity. It was lifesaving because without a car I can't get to my treatments and I can't get my daughter back and forth to school.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS EXPERIENCED IN THIS APPROACH TO TANTRA?
What can you expect from a training or consultation with Peter?
What have other Tantra teachers, practitioners of holistic therapies, Yoga teachers, and workshop participants with the most varied backgrounds experienced?
Jaya Devi
"I received practices that have daily anchored me in the energy of joyfulness."
It's difficult to find words to describe my experience in this retreat. The experience brought me a gentle and joyful inner pleasure. It can seem very funny, but the word that came to me was 'injaculation'.
In this retreat I was able to fit together various pieces of a puzzle of concepts and spiritual teachings that until now were somewhat disconnected. It was also a strengthening of the fundamental aspects of Tantra, a consolidation of my understanding of the various lines of Tantra and how they relate to other spiritual traditions.
As a gift from this retreat I received practices that have daily anchored me in the energy of the heart's joyfulness. After the retreat and through the daily practices that we were given, I notice a definite transformation in my massage work. I find myself much more fluid and connected with my intuition.
I was really struck by Peter's ability to transmit such profound teachings and practices in such a simple and light way.
I thank him very much for showing such patience and full availability during the whole time that we were together.

"Out of this world... such clarity and ease like I've never felt in my life."
"The guided meditation and breathwork workshop with Peter was an out-of-this world experience for me.
I don't find it easy to relax usually, so I was surprised to notice the relaxation of my head, neck and shoulders only 10 minutes in.
Peter has great presence and inspires in me feelings of overwhelming calmness and peace.
I love Peter's approach, just like his personality - very gentle and easygoing.
After the session i was feeling bit high and it lasted for a while; such clarity and ease like I've never felt in my life.
Luciana Manolea (Computer Scientist, Poker Player)

"Peter's piercing clarity, depth of knowledge and gentle heart can lead any practitioner right to the heart of their being."
Peter's piercing clarity, depth of knowledge and gentle heart can lead any practitioner right to the heart of their being.
His embodiment of the Tantric path and his understanding of Advaita put him in a unique position in the community of modern day teachers."

May Varsha
"I felt my whole body electrified, nurtured by the Divine Energy that creates and maintains life."
"I don't know how to explain love, but I am able to recognise it. My experience with Tantric Yoga Massage enveloped me profoundly, upon feeling the love of Peter's touch and the connection with Peter's sensitivity.
Wowww!
I felt the lifeforce fibrillating every cell in my body, a profound relaxation of the mind, in the surrender of simply feeling...
I felt a wonderful divine presence. I breathed intensely, consciously, and it's impossible to describe in words the sensations.
The opening I felt helped me to release through tears, through laughter, in deep compassion :) It was as if infinity was bathing my whole being...
I am truly grateful, as we're all in such need of this love, this relaxation, that came to me through the intelligence of the lifeforce, in the flood of hormonal activation, in the contraction and release of the muscles, through a pleasure that is intrinsic to my being.
I felt my whole body electrified, nurtured by the Divine Energy that creates and maintains life.
I feel gifted by cosmic intelligence in physical form.
Pure poetry!

Tiago Chabert
"I felt a new wave of freedom and new possibilities permeate my being - something that I hadn't felt in a long time."
"Peter's approach is incredibly direct. I felt as if his questions were draining poison from my psyche. The next day I felt a new wave of freedom and new possibilities permeate my being - something that I hadn't felt in a long time. Without Peter's help, it would maybe have been impossible to get to this point because you can't discover a 'blind spot' by yourself, you need a mirror. Peter is the perfect 'ego-surgeon' - gentle, precise and incisive."
Tiago Chabert (Naturopath, Reflexologist, Reiki Master and teacher)
"Peter has a great capacity to transmit profound concepts in a simple and accessible language."
"In the sessions with Peter I felt that I was taken on a voyage to the outer reaches of the universe and to the ultimate meaning of things where all my questions had an answer.
Peter has a great capacity to transmit profound concepts in a simple and accessible language.
I felt when speaking with him that all the universe made sense and left feeling inspired with a smile on my face and warmth in my heart."
Ana Paula Teixeira
"When I got up and went to the mirror I didn't recognize myself. I'd never felt and seen such love for myself."
The massage that I received from Peter taught me that a woman's body is prepared for giving birth pain-free, with pleasure, even orgasmically.
When I booked the massage with Peter I didn't know what I was in for. I knew almost nothing about kundalini, chakras and the connection between breath and lifeforce.
I had been depressed and decided to surrender to a new experience.
On the day I was feeling a little tension and apathy. I didn't know what to do and what could happen. When we began I heard my thoughts: "Am I doing this right? Should I feel something? Could this be it? I continued to do the breathwork and to visualize the circuit of lifeforce through the body. I relaxed deeper and when the massage was over Peter asked me to stay lying down for a while. I continued to do the breathwork as it seemed that as well as feeling more relaxed, I was starting to feel a great pleasure, more and more intense, as I breathed in and out.
I breathed in, the energy rose, I breathed out, it descended. I started to laugh I stopped and continued the breathwork I'd laugh, stop and then continue to breathe and feel immense pleasure.
I started having deep belly laughs When I'd stop, I'd breathe once more to feel an intense pleasure that filled me.
I couldn't believe in the power of the energy flowing… a growing intensity and it was orgasms that I was having, I had as many as I wanted. Until after some time I decided that there was something that I needed to release. I felt ready and the time had come. I felt I needed to release what was inside. Then I let go of what was holding me back.
I had no idea that I was letting go of the past. A pattern was broken and worlds opened up. I had a huge orgasm with female ejaculation just with the breath, without any stimulation of a sexual organ.
It was a very intense moment that I won't forget.
When I got up and went to the mirror I didn't recognise myself.
I'd never felt and seen such love for myself. The transformation of pain into pleasure gave me a power that I never imagined that I had.
Thank you Peter for showing me a way to reach my inner power.
Eternally grateful.

"All was calm and connected. The universe felt like a light breeze.."
A few months ago I read a testimonial about a session of Rebirthing with Peter Littlejohn Cook, from someone not connected to any spiritual path in particular, I just got caught by it, its sincerity, clean thought and the emotion shared.
A few weeks later I decided to call Peter, to try a breathwork session.
My memory tells me that I was a bit nervous; not knowing what this Rebirthing thing was all about because contrary to what I usually do, I went without preconceived thoughts and knowledge. I wasn't expecting anything in particular.
Peter was so kind and gentle, as I always remember him, preparing the session with care, sharing wisdom, no rush, smiling.
All the breathwork was gently guided, accompanied, bonded.
The hours passed as if there was no time and no space
I laughed, I snoozed, remembered past things, invented new ones, felt my skin as if it was me touching me, the world was floating and I was floating with it.
Peter was by my side and I felt safe.
When we parted, I was feeling happy for what I was carrying with me, for seeing Peter's gentle smile.
All was calm and connected.
The universe felt like a light breeze.

"I never expected that this would be such a release for me!"
"I just loved the feeling, when the whole crowd sang with closed eyes, and everything was synchronized, and Peter seemed to orchestrate the crowd.
I never expected that this would be such a release for me! It's amazing that we can do all those things with the voice!
Thank you Peter! Your workshop was one of the 3 most useful things at the SAND Conference for me."

".. helps me open up to my own authentic self."
"I had the privilege to join Peter's spontaneous tantric voicework session at the beautiful SAND venue in Titignano, Italy.
Again and again I'm touched by Peter's presence. The way he is showing, in a natural way, his kindness and sensitivity helps me to open up to my own authentic self.
The voice exercises are helping to open up and to dissolve blockages."
Ana Sofia Pacheco
"... immediately my heart calms, my breath becomes balanced, and my awareness expands."
"Peter has been a very important guide for me. He helps me return to my core, to my roots, releasing me from the fluctuations of my mind and my emotions. Even when I'm in a whirlwind of emotions, when I start speaking with Peter immediately my heart calms, my breath becomes balanced, and my awareness expands. This helps me restructure my ideas and to see my thoughts from a perspective that transcends the ego. The space Peter gives for listening and to allow for understanding to occur, his voice, and the whole way that he transmits his message, that clearly comes "from above", brings me peace and comforts my soul."
Ana Sofia Pacheco (Yoga teacher, Traditional Chinese Medicine therapist, practitioner of Japanese Acupuncture)
Pavani
"The questions and doubts have dissolved.."
"I can't put into words the gratitude I feel for having come to know you and the work you do. I can say without hesitation that the questions and doubts have dissolved. The love and patience which you showed me have unblocked what was holding me back. Eternal gratitude and love to you Peter!!"

There was an explosion of colours inside me... next my body experienced a Marvellous vibration!!..

Floating in a state of Love and profound Gratitude!!!"

I'm "addicted" to massages. I've had massages of all types, shapes and forms from people from the most diverse parts of our dear Mother Earth, but few were the ones with whom I really felt an "encounter". With Peter this encounter was automatic, from the pure and friendly gaze to the confidence and professionalism in his touch.
In other words, Peter knows how to observe, interpret, understand and feel the body. He's a natural-born Therapist, playing his part (like a humming-bird), through healing, to make our journey through life as joyous and pleasurable as possible, as only through the balance of mind, body and soul can we be in harmony with ourselves, with our environment, and with others.
Thank you, and bless you Peter."

"... a genuine communion between the divine feminine and the divine masculine, where I experienced LIFE, LOVE and UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE within myself in deep communion with Oneness."
This workshop for me was entering into a dimension without space and time, where I connected with myself and with the All! Where I felt a genuine communion between the divine feminine and the divine masculine, where I experienced LIFE, LOVE and UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE within myself in deep communion with Oneness.
It was an experience full of PRESENCE and HONORING of the sexual, erotic, vital energy.
It was a weekend where experience substituted words for me... In which NATURALNESS and ESSENCE were lived...
It's a challenge putting into words the experience as I feel that words are too limited to describe it.
I recommend this workshop not only to couples who are wanting to connect or reconnect, but to all who want to reconnect with themselves, with their sacred feminine and sacred masculine.

"I felt a reactivation of the freedom within that I knew as a child - the feeling that everything is possible!"
When I met Peter and experienced his work, I felt an overwhelming desire to smile :) I discovered in myself an opening that helped me to step out of the trap of feeling afraid to BE.
I felt a reactivation of the freedom within that I knew as a child - the feeling that everything is possible!... The feeling that there are no limits in space and time - only curiosity moving us, and around us everything is Nature, beauty, art, Life! And the realization that the naturalness of our naked bodies is the expression of our soul. We are all so unique! Everything is consciousness and alchemy!

Craig Robinson on his 'Mr. Robot' role, his Sundance-winning drama 'Morris From America' and his 'Sausage Party' character's WTF original name.
Matt Sayles/AP
Craig Robinson rose to prominence playing smooth, laid-back guys – soulful warehouse worker Darryl on The Office, romantic crooner Nick in Hot Tub Time Machine, a slightly-tweaked version of himself for This Is the End. But these days, he's nothing but go-go-go hustle. On Friday, he lends his dulcet tones to a foulmouthed, pot-smoking box of grits in the deranged animated comedy Sausage Party. Next week, he switches his style up with an uncharacteristically heavy turn in Morris from America, a coming-of-age indie about an African-American kid living in Germany (and which helped Robinson win a Special Jury Award at the Sundance Film Festival in January). And he's currently bringing menace to Mr. Robot's sophomore season, playing a mysterious new figure in Elliot's life linked to a Silk Road-type black market site.
In the midst of a career month, Robinson took a moment for a phone call with Rolling Stone that spanned the ins and outs of parenting, the shape of hip-hop to come, the racially problematic origins of his Sausage Party character and, of course, whether Donald Trump might be Satan on the down-low.

Do you have kids of your own?
No, I don't.
Then in a movie like Morris From America, which is centered around fatherhood, how do you go about capturing an experience that most parents say you've got to live through to understand?
Well, I have a father. There are a couple things I could point to that I got from him. My parents did the whole good-cop/bad-cop thing — Dad was the bad cop and Mom was the good cop. I remember my father saying, "I'm his father, not his friend." That kind of stuck with me. Then along comes this script, where the father's toeing the line between fatherhood and friendship. I found that very interesting, trying to figure that out.
It was somewhere different for me to go with this whole acting thing. I started to dig deep and look at my relationship with my family, nieces and nephews, kids I've worked with. I'm not a parent, but it's about building on that care and concern. When I was a schoolteacher, my principal said: "Every parent is doing the best they can." That's what I was trying to keep in the back of my mind.
The idea of a father also being a friend is kind of a recent shift. You think parenting has changed over time?
There's definitely a difference. Look at the laws: you can't spank a kid without getting in trouble. That kept me in line!
Your parents whupped you?
Yeah! It wasn't too bad. For stuff like grades, not doing as told — cleaning up, got it for that a lot.
You mentioned this was a different sort of role for you — but did your background in comedy give you a foundation for this character?
One hundred percent. Being on The Office prepared me for drama. Comedy got me ready, but once you get down to it, they're two sides of the same thing. I mean, the delivery has to be different — in drama there's more time to breathe, and comedy's all about hitting the joke. But they're not too far apart.
I never wanted to do just one thing. There's even other things in comedy that I want to do. For me, it's always been that I have to have the vision first. I'm glad somebody else can see it enough to trust me with a role. It's cool any time someone says, "I believe you got this, I saw something in you that says you can do what I need you to do."
Do you think comedic work, critically speaking, is less respected than dramatic performances?
There aren't a lot of Oscar-nominated comedies. Are they less respected? Maybe. But we need them both; you can't have one without the other. I was talking to an Army cat who was wounded in Afghanistan, and he told me all he had was aspirin and Hot Tub Time Machine — that's what got him through! It blew my mind. What could be better than to know you're cracking up someone when they need it the most?
Morris and his dad talk a lot about the generational divide in hip-hop. As rap goes, do you agree with your character that they don't make 'em like they used to?
Definitely. Music is music, it's gonna do what it does, but I think things are cyclical. I think it'll come back around to the classical ways, or maybe not. I keep it old school, I don't listen to a whole lot of new stuff. I'm all Earth, Wind & Fire. I just downloaded Mystikal's "Hit Me." I'm not as current as some folks, but I do like this kid Chance the Rapper — he's amazing.
So, about Mr. Robot — did you do a lot of research on the Silk Road before getting started?
Yeah, I read about the criminal case. That's a lot to digest, man. It's compelling, but a lot of it's disgusting. The darker side of the Internet feels unbelievable, but you know it's there. My character — I gotta tread lightly on this — my character is terrifying. I don't think he likes dealing with unpleasant stuff, but he's a businessman. That's all I can say.
Let's talk about Mr. Robinson, your sitcom that got cancelled last year. Was that at all discouraging for you?
It was a great experience. It was a dream come true, and not only to have a show with my name on it. As I've been working in Hollywood, a lot of times you'll see people who know each other — friends who got each other jobs, I mean — and I wanted to be on a set where I could hire people. I had my band on there. I could get people I know and love work.
The cancellation came, and of course I was like, "Aw, man." You know, I'm fine. But it was one of those things where you have the ratings, and that's what you think it's all about. We got the ratings, then it was wait, wait, wait — and then nothing. Some people loved it, and that's what matters. I've met people who ask when it's coming back when I'm traveling.
You've got a bit part in Sausage Party and your character was originally named "Uncle Tom's Rice." It was then changed to "Mr. Grits," though that still draws from outdated and specifically black stock characters. Did that give you pause at all?
Oh, yeah, there was a lot of pause with the rice. I was just glad when the character changed. It's, uh, yeah. Definitely some pause on that. Uncle Tom's Rice … not a good look.
Do you ever think back to when you were playing keyboards in live shows, doing small venues, and wish things were that simple?
I've got some fond memories. Every once in a while, I'll pop in somewhere and do something like that. I enjoy the chance to do smaller things, like [indie comedy] Rapturepalooza. There's more breathing room. Each project, though, has to make me feel like I'm at the gym, getting better, flexing. That's what guides me.
Earl Gundy, the character you played in Rapture-Palooza, was a power-hungry politician who turns out to be Satan — see any resemblance to people currently involved in politics?
[Laughs] I hadn't thought about that, but I think you're right! Earl Gundy had this quest for power, poisoned all the bigwigs. Maybe I'll have to watch that again.

EarwaxMD recently made its debut on Amazon, and will hit the shelves of a pharmacy chain in August.
Last year, we told you about Eosera, the Fort Worth-based company that has created a treatment to dissolve earwax.
Called EarwaxMD, the company's product is sold over the counter for about $20 and it recently made its debut on Amazon.
The company was founded in 2015 by former Alcon employees Elyse Dickerson, who worked in marketing, and toxicologist Joe Griffin.
After surveying medical professionals and testing dozens of formulations on human wax samples, the product was ready to hit the shelves.
The Dallas Morning News reported that Eosera plans to ramp up production to roughly 36,000 units and will place the treatment on the shelves of a yet-unnamed drugstore chain in August.


Kansas high school and middle school students will compete in the ultimate wind energy learning experience beginning next week. They have done their homework when it comes to wind power and used that knowledge to build, test and fine-tune their turbines. Now it is time to see how they stack up against the competition. Each team's turbine will be put to the test in a 48" × 48" wind tunnel at a wind speed of approximately 3.5-5 m/s.
Four regional competitions are scheduled. The winning teams from each age group (4-8 and 9-12 grades) will advance to the state finals for a chance to represent Kansas in the national competition in Houston, Texas during the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) conference on May 20-23. Registrations are still being accepted. The schedule of events appears below.
Kansas KidWind has been expanded from one event last year to five to make it easier for teams from all regions of the state to participate. This year there are currently 43 teams registered compared to 17 last year. In 2018, students showcased their creativity with wind turbines constructed using everything from soda cans to vinyl records. The 2018 team from Oxford Middle School went on to place first in the national KidWind competition in Chicago.
More information about KidWind can be found at https://kansasenergyprogram.org/kidwindchallenge.


I cannot easily recall a really excellent, well thought through, politically cleared idea that was stopped because of the machinations of civil servants.
I can think of plenty which were stopped because they were impractical, illegal, in conflict with other stated aims of the government, impossible to deliver on to the parliamentary timescale, unaffordable, unwittingly bad value for money, or too slapdash to be taken seriously.
I can also think of plenty of really bad policies that have been pushed through despite voluminous and persistent civil service complaints, including one (from the Treasury) so poor that I couldn't read a submission on it without playing this music.
You cannot read "The Blunders of Our Governments" by King and Crewe without concluding that excessive official insubordination isn't what lies behind a history of bad policies in this country. Far more often, the civil servants have failed to speak up, have failed to reflect wider interests – have, in other words, failed to do what this seemingly innocuous memo asks them to do.
Gosh, lock the doors of the House of Parliament, I sense a coup.
The Institute for Government has a balanced response: of course there are wider interests to serve, including the capacity of the Department to serve future governments. A minister can't just slash and burn the capacity of a department he doesn't happen to like.
This sounds paternalistic, but ministers and their advisers frequently do not understand the implications of their policy spasms. Such spasms often stem from a pitifully thin evidence base, and are only subject to scrutiny from a generally tame bunch of close commentator-friends, who will naturally be told, and repeat back to their readers, that the policy idea is sheer, radical genius.
No it isn't. One of the best ideas I heard from another spad was from Nick Hillman, who said every department should have its Chief Historian, in order to remind the short term and media-harried boss of the day exactly how many times his recent idea has failed. Genuine originality is rare; and originality that works is priceless.
Good policy is seldom stopped by the scheming mandarinate. They are often the messenger of bad news, however, and being more experienced at actually encountering the obstacles, will be more cautious. Sufficient number of bad ideas have been forced through to suggest that the real enemy wasn't some guy in a suit – it was reality itself.
The very best policy takes time, and proceeds through a constant tug of contrary forces, testing opposition the whole way. It takes a little persistence. Much of the early policy referred to here was born either in the hopeless Big Society/Detoxification phase of Cameron's leadership, or during the brief Rose Garden idealism that followed. It ended with the departure of a couple of spads. If it really couldn't get through even when the Coalition was in its pomp, it wasn't very good.
From time to time you will read columns revealing how some great idea has been being thwarted by Mandarins. This is usually the clearest sign than an incompetent spad has been on manoeuvres. It isn't a coup.
OTOH – if I were appointed the leader of an established organisation I would be pretty upset if the people reporting to me sent out a memo to everyone basically saying "Chris has been appointed our boss, he has some crazy ideas, we have a responsibility to manage him so that he doesn't do anything too stupid and especially put the future of the organisation at risk." Now this may in fact be true, but you can see why I might be angry. If the memo was brought to my attention I would have no choice except to repudiate it, otherwise I would be neutralized.
Why did something think it was a good idea to write such a memo? Do our senior civil servants really need this level of handholding? That's worrying in itself. The good old British tradition is that everyone understood these things including their responsibilities but it was never written down. You have to do this by "understanding" as unlike most countries Britain does not have a constitution, which might codify this kind of thing. And you can't just settle constitutional decisions by unilateral memos like this, the split of responsibilities between political and civil service is part of a much bigger picture of how the overall political system works and would have to be extensively debated and agreed nationally.
I think you are taking the exaggerated interpretation of the memo, not its duller reality. The point is that it was written to specify the skills a Permsec needs. And if that hadn't laid out that PermSecs need to navigate the waters between the ideas that are wanted, the ideas that work, the ideas that others want, the ideas that may just happen, then it would be missing something.

Customer service and help desk was a big issue. Smaller businesses will not fit here well. Too long for a response, not enough information on the products, etc... I think CheetahMail might be a good fit for "hands-off" businesses looking for managed platforms but not for boutique mailings. There are much better platforms, for cheaper that can handle nearly any volume smaller business are willing to send.
CheetahMail has grown their platform from just a batch and blast of large quantities of email to one that allows for strategic consumer profiling and targeting. The tool has made strides towards getting to the analytical data so we can do some granular targeting.
CheetahMail's strength is and has always been in sending out large quantities of email quickly. They have also enabled actionable consumer profiles for more granular targeting.
The platform lends its self to deliver more effective campaigns and measureable results by matching clients' audience data to display, video, social, mobile and media activating the audience or consumer.
Tech support is lacking. An account representative with no technical knowledge is your main contact and there is a long lag when technical issues arise because the account representative has to wait on their tech team. There also often is a communication gap as to what the technical issues are as you are not allowed to talk directly to tech support and the account representative must mediate.
Most innovative solutions require much more money and are not included in the basic (self-service) CheetahMail package. For example, integrating with other data sources and having advanced segmentation require you to purchase an outside service that is compatible with CheetahMail but not included in the CheetahMail package. CheetahMail is drastically behind in terms of technology. So much so that we had an experience where we've tried to integrate with certain third parties but were unable to because CheetahMail was not as advanced as the other email providers.
Extremely manual process for setup and reporting. There is no automation or anything easily accessible to the marketers without tech support. They are significantly worse than any other competitor.
CheetahMail has a high learning curve to master and requires a lot of backend work with tech teams to set up. Navigation is not the best and everything that should be automated is still extremely manual.
Account reps have a quick response time but a very slow resolution time. Because account reps do not have technical knowledge, there is a long long lead time between flagging a problem and tech team resolution.
We've evaluated 6 other email service providers and have come to the conclusion that CheetahMail is extremely lacking and consistently on the decline. They lack in innovation, in having the option to integrate data from other sources, in functionality when it comes to automating the email process. If you are going for their self-service option, stay away! I doubt they will still be in business give or take 5 years.
Average web audience grew 300% within three months, with visitors coming from over 100 countries.
Greater integration and cooperation between marketing and sales.
Enabled us to become much more proactive in lead generation that the company was able to do previously. We can monitor behaviour, react to that appropriately and serve our prospects and customers much more effectively.
