Starting martial arts has helped me gain so much confidence in myself, not only my ability to defend myself but also in day to day life.
Marsden Martial Arts feels like a second home, everyone is so friendly and supportive!
Great place to train! Clean, tidy and professional! Great instruction!
My children have trained here for 10 months now and love it. Their confidence and self control has changed so much that even school have commented on their better behaviour. Friendly, warm, family atmosphere.
Thanks to Steve at Marsden Martial arts for making my daughter, partner and myself feel welcome.
It was our 6 year daughters first Martial arts lesson which she really enjoyed.
I can highly recommend Marsden martial arts to any person thinking about there kids learn some kind of self defense or adult wanting to do some kind of combat sports.
I've been bringing my 6yr old daughter here for 1 month now. She really enjoys coming. The lessons are a good mix of fun and games, learning moves, paying attention, listening and being kind to others. Very well balanced and keeps the young ones interested as well as helping them to make friends. Its defence techniques are appropriate for the age of the children. Very friendly atmosphere. Totally recommend Marsdens to anyone with young children thinking of learning valuable protection and social skills.
The loveliest bunch of people to exist, if you want to get fit why go to a gym where you feel like an alien and not go to a place like this that make you feel as if you are family, well and truly an infinite out of 5 you can't compare anything to this club because it is truly unique and beautiful.
I joined the Academy last year in November with my boys too. It is really nice to have found something to do with my son's that we all really enjoy. The teachers at Marsden Martial arts are all awesome and friendly and I am getting fitter as I'm going more and more. It's a great life choice made to join this Academy and I do not regret it one bit.
I have made a lot of new friends and feel privelidged to be a part of this MMA family.
Sensei Steve, his sons, his wife and his gym members are an unbelievably welcoming family.
Steve spent his own time with us before we signed up making sure we felt comfortable, welcomed and had had all of our questions and concerned answered.
On our first day all of his members were VERY friendly and welcoming, which was great as a few people in our group felt nervous about martial arts.
We were ensured there was no need to be nervous and this was proven correct.
We were shown techniques slowly and safely and then when it came time to practice on each other, we were placed with higher grades who could ensure we wouldn't get hurt and would look after us.
We had a great time and a great workout while also learning lots about martial arts.
We would recommend Marsden Martial Arts to ANYONE.
Joined Marsden earlier 2016. I've previously trained in a number of martial arts for about 20 ish years, and I was instantly impressed with the standard of the instructors and other students, as well as the friendly welcoming atmosphere from all, so settled in straight away.
I've since been constantly learning something new and improving on what I know. The 2 brothers (instructors) do an incredible comedy double act while teaching (but still keeping it professional), which adds to the entertainment and sets a fun scene to train in.
Marsden has improved my martial arts, fitness as well as dropping a few pounds in weight, all while having fun with a new group of friends.
I started out real shy and disappointed in my capabilities being a bigger lady, worrying that I might not be able to do it. But they all have cheered me on and been there when I'm down on myself to pick me up and I truly look forward to going there and giving my best until I make it right :) First class training and always a friend in sight. The staff and trainees push my skills to the limit, pick me up when I'm down and have become a second family to me and my daughter. I was real proud to watch MMA at a recent competition. Our competitors had lots of skill and respect on the mats. It's wonderful to be trained by a family of professionals, that make it all seem so easy and encourage dedication and respect. Thank you all at MMA, you are a blessing in my life.
Tristan, my now 6 year old son, has been coming here for nearly 3 years. I can honestly say, hand on heart, that Marsden's MMA has had a remarkable impact on him. He has gone from not listening and constantly being on his own mission to now being attentative, confident and kind, consistently. He is now in the family class and because he absolutely loves coming, it got me to sign up a few months ago. At 43 I though I was too old to learn something new. I'm not and I love it too! Being a single parent working full time, I have to think carefully about how I spend Tristan's time and mine. This is by far one of the best decisions I have made for us both. A 5 star rating isn't high enough - i'd give it more! Thanks for everything - you are all great!!
So my lil one (Ethan) had his introductory session yesterday! And after a few bumpy minutes of seeming to be shy and embarrassed and totally out of his comfort zone seemed to really enjoy it by the time he had finished.... Aisha spent so much time with him! Encouraging him along and just being so patient! It was hard to sit back as a parent and let someone else do the work! When we got given his kit he totally changed character and seemed to have alot more confidence! He couldn't wait to go back and put his gear on again! Lol... ! So took him again tonight for a session and he has totally enjoyed himself! He even told his dad to get up early on Saturday to take him again!! Lol. The guys are really good and you can tell All the children respect them and each other! It's going to be great watching his confidence grow and his skills develop! So much his dad is thinking of joining!!! Can't wait to get his little brother signed up but he's not three till the end of January! Now that will be a challenge for the guys! Kinda kicking myself we haven't done anything like this sooner! Great team of people who are down there! Would defo recommend and that's just after one full session. Thanx guys.
I just want to say a big thank you to you all I sat and watched arwen on Monday I realised just how far she has come on not just in martial arts but her concentration she sits there watching you all taking in every bit of what you all are saying to them all she's turning in to such a lovly littel girl this is part your doing I just wanted the chance to say thank you to you all she loves coming and is thriving at Marsdens.
So today was the turn of Ellis to join the Marsden crew! He turned 3 yesterday and had his introductory session last nite after months of itching to get on the mats! Sensei Brandon was amazing with him. Very patient and praised him loads! Wasn't pushy and let him get comfy with the new surroundings. Suggested we took him to a main lesson tonight which we did! Ellis loved it! Tried his best to get involved! Listened and seem to really enjoy it! Think he had a lil wobble but was soon back on the mats with Aisha who wouldn't let him escape! After positive comments from sensei Steve and sensei Brandon, quickly signed him up! Gi on straight away which he refused to take off! And even wanted to get back on the mats and try grading! Lol.... couldn't thank or wish for a better bunch of people to help develop my lil ones!! The boys really enjoy coming! Keep up the fab work guys!
Asher has been to a few classes with little Ninjas now and he absolutely LOVES it. He asks me what day it is everyday to check if it's time for little Ninjas. A huge huge thank you to Miss Aisha for making Asher feel so welcome and at home at Marsden martial arts. He looks for you the moment he's through the doors. His listening skills at home have improved dramatically, his confidence has peaked.. I could not recommend more if I tried. Absolutely worth every penny. The families that attend are really nice, there's always a friend to have a chat with for me and for Asher! My little girl is 4 months old and already I can't wait for her to be old enough to start! Sensei Tom and Sensei Steve are fantastic teachers! Extremely patient and just all-around BRILLIANT!! If you're umming and arring about going- GO!!!
amesome family friendly place. me and my friend both attend. i would advise to anyone who is interested in martial arts or who just wish to better themselves to join this club.the sensi's are understanding of different ability levels and play to your strengths whilst bettering your weaknesses, also they are really friendly and obviously very knowledgeable.
I apologise for my terrible writing before I start.
I signed Corey up in March this year, I'd been having a few issues with his listening skills, and controlling his behaviour when he is worked up or frustrated.
Recently he has been attempting (and sometimes succeeding) in pushing the boundaries, to the point where he had gotten so worked up he kicked me in the mouth, causing my lip to split, pinching, biting and also hitting his siblings leaving very clear marks and bruises. I was at the point where I felt like a failure as a parent, that there was no way out. I arrived at the following lesson, and spoke with Sensei Steve, who booked Corey in with Sensei Tom for a talk for the following Saturday. I spoke privately with Sensei Tom, explained everything that had been happening, and he explained his past experiences and how to deal with them. Afterwards he took Corey in and spoke privately with him, before bringing me back in with Corey and amazingly explaining a few ways on how to help Corey improve.
It took a few weeks, alot of tears, and I hate you mummy's! I wish someone else was my mummy! Etc. But I pushed through it and didn't give in. Corey is now like a whole new child, he still has his amazing personality, but finds it easier controlling himself. Of course like with all children, he has his moments to see if he can break any of the new boundaries, but realises quickly that the rules are in place and will be staying.
Marden Martial Arts are definitely the way forward. So much so I signed my Daughter up in August. You don't come here and just become another student/parent of a student. You become part of a huge friendly, and welcoming family!!
Thank you Sensei Tom, Sensei Steve, Sensei Brandon, Sensei Lyn, Aisha, Jake, Lucy and everyone else here. You are all amazing!
Really great place to learn. Such a great friendly atmosphere and everyone, sensei's and fellow students make you feel very welcome.
Just a quick update. Now almost 3 and half weeks since I started and lost a nice 8lb already and feel So much better in myself.
Thank you to all thoes at Marsdens martial arts that's help in my journey so far.
Far more than just martial arts. They really help build your children's confidence and take time out to be there for you and your children if you need them. It's very family orientated and friendly. Our eldest has been going for almost 4 months and he is always counting down to his next lesson.
Jake has now joined the leadership program to black belt and is so excited. He has also been asked to be a mentor to the young students, little ninjas, so he's pretty pleased with himself. A great programme to inspire, ins-till confidence and provide skills that are immeasurable to a young adult. Thank you Sensei's.

Benelli to launch this gorgeous TRK 502 at Milan next week! Look at this thing! And it's a 500cc bike!
By Tony Carter|2020-07-02T08:41:34+01:00November 4th, 2016|Categories: Adventure Bikes, Learner, News, Street Bikes, Touring Bikes, Your Ride|Tags: 2017, Benelli, EICMA, Enduro, Hot Stories, Milan, MoreBikes|
This is the Benelli TRK 502 2017 production motorcycle that is going to be officially released at next week's Eicma show in Milan, Italy.
The bike was first shown a clear year ago at last year's Milan show as a prototype and this finished version looks very close to the widely-praised original.
The twin-cylinder 69mm x 66.8mm 500cc engined bike gets 17 inch wheels (a more off-road version will come with a 19 inch front). It's Euro 4 compliant and gets electronic fuel injection with a DOHC and 4-valves. Max power is 47bhp @ 8,500 and torque is 33ftlb @ 5,000rpm. Gearbox is six speed and the bike has a chain final drive.
The petrol tank is a healthy 20 litres with three litre reserve, the ample fairing has been designed with large wind deflectors which come as standard. The 800mm high seat is deliberately low and sunk 'into' the bike for comfort on the road and clearance between bike and rider when off-road.
A trellis frame is finished in black and the forks are upside down, fully adjustable with 135mm of travel, the rear shock is fully adjustable too. Up front the brakes are radial four-piston calipers on 320mm discs, the rear brake is a single piston caliper on a 260mm disc. The bike comes with ABS as standard. The bike tips the scales at 213 dry.
The TRK 502 is expected to go on sale in the first few months of next year. No price has been announced by the factory (not a surprise, it's not officially launched yet) and the bike is going to come in red, white or grey. Looks great.

Jar Jar Binks Actor Reveals He Nearly Committed Suicide After Star Wars Backlash
By Dirk Libbey published 4 July 18
The Star Wars prequels have received a lot of hate over the years, but a lot of that hate was directed at one man in particular, and it very nearly drove him to suicide. Ahmed Best was the actor who did the motion capture work and provided the voice for Jar Jar Binks. Recently, the actor took to Twitter to share an image of two things, the location where he once considered ending his life, and the child he now has because he chose not to do so.
It's been 19 years since the first of the Star Wars prequel trilogy arrived and the films were certainly not met with the same passion and love that the original trilogy had seen. A great deal of the backlash was focused on the character of Jar Jar Binks, a computer-animated character who spoke with an affected accent who was seen by many to be a silly character designed exclusively to appeal to children.
Needless to say, it's heartbreaking to learn that the backlash against Star Wars: The Phantom Menace and the rest of the prequels was such that Ahmed Best considered suicide. Not liking a movie is fine, we all feel that way from time to time, but it should never be taken out on a performer, who, at the end of the day, is only doing a job.
Ahmed Best is considering putting together a one man show and it appears he may make the topic of his potential suicide a part of it. As dark as that could be, it might make for good therapy for Best himself to talk about the experience of going through the backlash from his perspective. And it wouldn't be awful if the rest of us were exposed to that perspective. If we knew the effect our words had on people, perhaps we would be more careful with them.
While so many may have been hyper-critical of Jar Jar Binks, the character is part of the Star Wars universe for better or worse. Best has continued to voice the character for animated series and video games throughout the years. While Best says the backlash has had an effect on his career, and the lack of varied roles he's had since The Phantom Menace would bear that out. In the end, it would seem that the longevity of Star Wars has made Jar Jar a key part of Ahmed Best's life, for good as well as bad.
You can think what you wish about the Star Wars prequels, but it's difficult to argue that Jar Jar Binks is the real problem with them. The issues are far more fundamental than one character who only wants to make you laugh.

Homepage news > Smoking in cars with kids to be banned
Smoking in cars with kids to be banned
Helen Healy, JMU Journalism
– February 11, 2014Posted in: Homepage news, News and features
Fumes © Wikipedia
MPs have voted in favour to have a complete ban on smoking in cars when under-18s are present.
The vote, which took place in the House of Commons on Monday, had an overall majority of 269 and had been brought before MPs after more than 700 health professionals wrote an open letter to the government last week urging the request to be backed.
Health experts argue that second-hand smoke inhalation is a "major cause of ill-health in children" and that minors are being exposed to "high amounts of tobacco smoke".
Smoke Free Sports, which backs the change in the law, is an initiative which was set up by Liverpool John Moores University to promote health and fitness in primary schools.
They ran a project that involved over 1,000 Year 5 children across Merseyside to promote a healthy smoke-free lifestyle by engaging them in physical activities that raised awareness of the potential damage to health which is caused by smoking.
Ciara McGee, SmokeFree Sports project officer and LJMU PhD student, told JMU Journalism about a study compiled here in the city.
She said: "Second hand smoke in cars is dangerous. Over 80% of this deadly smoke is invisible. In SmokeFree Sports primary school study, 23% of 9-10 year old children surveyed reported being exposed to smoking in cars. MP's must protect our children from such unnecessary hazards."
Smoking has been banned in England in public places and the workplace since 2007 and this new amendment to the Children's and Families Bill is a significant shift in current legislation.
Shadow Public Health Minister and MP for Wavertree, Luciana Berger, welcomed the new amendment. She said: "Ministers now have a duty to bring forward regulations so that we can make this measure a reality and put protections for children in place as soon as possible.
"This is a great victory for child health, which will benefit hundreds of thousands of young people across our country. It is a matter of child protection, not adult choice."

Honoré Daumier facts for kids
Honoré Daumier circa 1850
(1808-02-26)February 26, 1808
February 10, 1879(1879-02-10) (aged 70)
Printmaking, painting, sculpture
Honoré-Victorin Daumier (French: [ɔnɔʁe domje]; February 26, 1808 – February 10, 1879) was a French printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor, whose many works offer commentary on social and political life in France in the 19th century.
Daumier produced more than 500 paintings, 4000 lithographs, 1000 wood engravings, 1000 drawings and 100 sculptures. A prolific draughtsman, he was perhaps best known for his caricatures of political figures and satires on the behavior of his countrymen, although posthumously the value of his painting has also been recognized.
Daumier was born in Marseille to Jean-Baptiste Louis Daumier and Cécile Catherine Philippe. His father Jean-Baptiste was a glazier whose literary aspirations led him to move to Paris in 1814, seeking to be published as a poet. In 1816, the young Daumier and his mother followed Jean-Baptiste to Paris. Daumier showed in his youth an irresistible inclination towards the artistic profession, which his father vainly tried to check by placing him first with a huissier, for whom he was employed as an errand boy, and later, with a bookseller. In 1822, he became protégé to Alexandre Lenoir, a friend of Daumier's father who was an artist and archaeologist. The following year Daumier entered the Académie Suisse. He also worked for a lithographer and publisher named Belliard, and made his first attempts at lithography.
Having mastered the techniques of lithography, Daumier began his artistic career by producing plates for music publishers, and illustrations for advertisements. This was followed by anonymous work for publishers, in which he emulated the style of Charlet and displayed considerable enthusiasm for the Napoleonic legend. After the revolution of 1830 he created art which expressed his political beliefs. Daumier was almost blind by 1873.
A lithograph of Daumier's Gargantua, 1831
During the reign of Louis Philippe, Charles Philipon launched the comic journal, La Caricature. Daumier joined its staff, which included such powerful artists as Devéria, Raffet and Grandville, and started upon his pictorial campaign of satire, targeting the foibles of the bourgeoisie, the corruption of the law and the incompetence of a blundering government. His caricature of the king as Gargantua led to Daumier's imprisonment for six months at Ste Pelagie in 1832. Soon after, the publication of La Caricature was discontinued, but Philipon provided a new field for Daumier's activity when he founded the Le Charivari.
Daumier produced his social caricatures for Le Charivari, in which he held bourgeois society up to ridicule in the figure of Robert Macaire, hero of a popular melodrama. In another series, L'histoire ancienne, he took aim at the constraining pseudo-classicism of the art of the period. In 1848 Daumier embarked again on his political campaign, still in the service of Le Charivari, which he left in 1863 and rejoined in 1864.
Around the mid-1840s Daumier started publishing his famous caricatures depicting members of the legal profession, known as 'Les Gens de Justice', a scathing satire about judges, defendants, attorneys and corrupt, greedy lawyers in general. A number of extremely rare albums appeared on white paper, covering 39 different legal themes, of which 37 had previously been published in the Charivari. It is said that Daumier's own experience as an employee in a bailiff's office during his youth may have influenced his rather negative attitude towards the legal profession.
In 1834 he produced the lithograph Rue Transnonain, 15 April 1834 depicting the massacre in the rue transnoin which was part of the April 1834 riots in Paris. It was designed for the subscription publication L'Association Mensuelle. The profits were to promote freedom of the press and defrayed legal costs of a lawsuit against the satirical, politically progressive journal Le Charivari to which Daumier contributed regularly. The police discovered the print hanging in the window of printseller Ernest Jean Aubert in the Galerie Véro-Dodat (passageway in 1st arrondissement) and subsequently tracked down and confiscated as many of the prints they could find, along with the original lithographic stone on which the image was drawn. Existing prints of Rue Transnonain are survivors of this effort.
Daumier was not only a prolific lithographer, draftsman and painter, but he also produced a notable number of sculptures in unbaked clay. In order to save these rare specimens from destruction, some of these busts were reproduced first in plaster. Bronze sculptures were posthumously produced from the plaster. The major 20th-century foundries were F. Barbedienne Barbedienne, Rudier [fr], Siot-Decauville [fr] and Foundry Valsuani [fr].
Eventually Daumier produced between 36 busts of French members of Parliament in unbaked clay. The foundries involved from 1927 on to produce a bronze edition were Barbedienne in an edition of 25 & 30 casts and Valsuani with three special casts based on the previous plaster castings from the gallery Sagot - Le Garrec clay collection. These bronze busts are all posthumous, based on the original, but frequently restored unbaked clay sculptures. The clay in its restored version can be seen at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris.
From the early 1950s on, some baked clay 'Figurines' appeared, most of them belonging to the Gobin collection in Paris. It was Gobin who decided to have a bronze cast done by Valsuani in an edition of 30 each. Again, they were posthumous and there is no proof, in contrast to the busts mentioned above, that these terra cotta figurines really were done by Daumier himself. The American school (J.Wasserman from the Fogg-Harvard Museum) doubts their authenticity, while the French school, especially Gobin, Lecomte, and Le Garrec and Cherpin, all somehow involved in the marketing of the bronze editions, are sure of their Daumier origin. The Daumier Register (the international center of Daumier research) as well as the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC would consider the figurines as 'in the manner of Daumier' or even 'by an imitator of Daumier' (NGA)
There can be no doubt about the authenticity of Daumier's Ratapoil and his Emigrants. The self-portrait in bronze as well as the bust of Louis XIV have been frequently debated over the last 100 years, but the general tenor is to accept them as originals by Daumier.
Daumier created many figurines that he subsequently used as models for his paintings. One of Daumier's most well-known figurines, titled The Heavy Burden, features a woman and her child. The woman is carrying something, possibly a large bag; the figurine is about 14 inches tall. Oliver W. Larkin states that "One sees in the clay the mark of Daumier's swift fingers as he nudged the skirt into windblown folds and used a knife blade or the end of a brush handle to define the clasped arms and the wrinkles of the cloth over the breast. In oil, he could only approximate this small masterpiece most successfully in two canvases were once owned by Arsene Alexandre."
Daumier made several paintings of The Heavy Burden. The woman and her child look like they are being pushed by the wind, and Daumier used this as a metaphor of the greater forces they were actually fighting against. The greater forces that Daumier wanted to show that they were trying to fight were the Revolution, the government, and poverty. The woman and her child in the painting are outlined by a very dark shadow.
Daumier later in his career
In addition to his prodigious activity in the field of caricature—the list of Daumier's lithographed plates compiled in 1904 numbers no fewer than 3,958—he also painted. Except for the searching truthfulness of his vision and the powerful directness of his brushwork, it would be difficult to recognize the creator of Robert Macaire, of Les Bas bleus, Les Bohémiens de Paris, and the Masques, in the paintings of Christ and His Apostles (Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam), or in his Good Samaritan, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, Christ Mocked, or even in the sketches in the Ionides Collection at South Kensington. There is a room-full of caricatures in the museum Am Römerholz in Winterthur. Don Quixote and Sancho Panza was found as part of the 2012 Munich Art Hoard.
As a painter, Daumier was one of the pioneers of realistic subjects, which he treated with a point of view critical of class distinctions. His paintings did not meet with success until 1878, a year before his death, when Paul Durand-Ruel collected his works for exhibition at his galleries and demonstrated the range of the talent of the man who has been called the "Michelangelo of caricature". At the time of the exhibition, Daumier was blind and living in a cottage at Valmondois, which Corot placed at his disposal. It was there that he died.

Baudelaire noted of him: l'un des hommes les plus importants, je ne dirai pas seulement de la caricature, mais encore de l'art moderne. (One of the most important men, not only, I would say, in caricature, but also in modern art.)
An exhibition of his works was held at the École des Beaux-Arts in 1901.
Daumier's works are found in many of the world's leading art museums, including the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Rijksmuseum. He is celebrated for a range of works, including a large number of paintings (500) and drawings (1000) some of them depicting the life of Don Quijote, a theme that fascinated him for the last part of his life.
Daumier's 200th birthday was celebrated in 2008 with a number of exhibitions in Asia, America, Australia and Europe.

Redick to 76ers on busy day of NBA free agency
July 1, 2017 Updated: July 1, 2017 10:54 p.m.
JJ Redick is trusting the process. And Gordon Hayward got his sales pitch from Miami.
The first day of NBA free agency Saturday saw things starting to take shape, though there's still dozens of more moves to come in the next few days. After an opening flurry that saw Stephen Curry get a $201 million deal from the Warriors and Blake Griffin take about $175 million to stay with the Los Angeles Clippers, most teams started to look at names more within their price range.
With nearly $1 billion in deals agreed to just in Day 1 of this year's free agency period, there is still no shortage of money out there for teams to hand out.
Still out there is another massive offer: John Wall has a chance to sign a four-year extension worth $168 million with the Wizards, another deal under the so-called "super max" structure that allowed Curry to get his record payday.
In other major free agent developments Saturday:
Redick: The sharpshooter agreed to a $23 million, one-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers. He made his intentions for next season clear with three simple words. "Trust the process," he tweeted, his way of saying he was heading to the 76ers, who have made that phrase their mantra during their long rebuilding process. Redick averaged 15 points and made 43 percent of his three-pointers last season for the Clippers, who now need two new starting guards next season after point guard Chris Paul was traded to the Rockets.
Hayward: The coveted small forward was greeted by Heat players for his free-agent visit, along with a banner strategically placed outside American Airlines Arena showing him in a Heat uniform. The All-Star forward who is coming off the best season of his career spent several hours with Miami officials such as team President Pat Riley, and is still expected to visit with Boston and Utah — the incumbent team — before making a decision in the coming days.
Jrue Holiday: Curry wasn't the only point guard to get richer. Holiday agreed to return to New Orleans for $126 million over five years, with incentives potentially pushing that to $150 million. The Pelicans were also talking with Nick Young and Ty Lawson about coming to New Orleans.
Patty Mills: The former St. Mary's player is returning to San Antonio for the next four years at $50 million.
Kyle Korver: Cleveland offered the shooting guard a contract. The 36-year-old has expressed a desire to stay with Cleveland after making it to his first NBA Finals.
Jose Calderon: The Cavaliers also agreed to a deal with the veteran Calderon to back up All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving, reportedly for the veteran's minimum.
Joe Ingles: Utah, still hoping to re-sign Hayward, agreed to re-sign its forward for four years, $52 million.
Langston Galloway: Detroit got some solid insurance at point guard, agreeing with Galloway on a three-year deal.
Dion Waiters: The guard, who spent last season with the Heat, had a list of free-agency targets revealed that not only included Miami but also Chicago, New York and Sacramento.
Michael Carter-Williams: The former Rookie of the Year agreed to a one-year, $2.7 million contract with the Hornets.
Cristiano Felicio: A person familiar with the situation said Chicago agreed to a four-year, $32 million contract to retain the reserve forward.
Pacers hire new GM: Indiana has hired Chad Buchanan as the team's general manager.
Buchanan, 44, replaces Pacers president of basketball operations Kevin Pritchard, who moved up when Larry Bird left in May. Pritchard will still be in charge of the final decisions.
Bird will continue to work with the team as a consultant.

How Alcohol Affects The Nervous System
Drinking alcohol can cause damage to a number of systems in the body including the central nervous system. Alcohol abuse can cause confusion, balance problems, dementia, or even psychosis. Learn more about the dangerous effects of alcohol on the central nervous system today.
Home > Alcohol Abuse > Nervous System
How Alcohol Affects The Central Nervous System How Alcohol Affects The Brain How Alcohol Affects The Body Dangers Of Alcohol On The Central Nervous System Alcohol Withdrawal And The Central Nervous System Find Help For Long-Term Alcohol Abuse
Millions of people in the United States are currently struggling with alcoholism. This is problematic because the highly addictive substance can cause a whole host of medical problems that can impact a person's body and mind in many different ways.
Luckily, most of the damage that the condition causes can be reversed if a person receives treatment in time. If you know someone who is struggling with an alcohol use disorder, it may be helpful to understand how alcohol affects the nervous system.
How Does Alcohol Affect The Central Nervous System?
The central nervous system consists of the spinal cord and brain. It is just one part of the body's entire nervous system. Other areas of the brain and some special organs control the rest of it.
The central nervous system's job is to receive and process information from some parts of the body. This information allows the body to respond accordingly to the stimuli that it receives.
For example, if someone touches something hot, the central nervous system would receive the distress signal and trigger the muscles to pull back so that the skin isn't damaged further. When a person drinks alcohol, several parts of the central nervous system are affected, which triggers a myriad of responses.
Parts of the body that the central nervous system sends and receives information through include:
sexual organs
How Alcohol Affects The Brain
How alcohol affects the nervous system and brain has a lot to do with its molecule size and composition. Alcohol is able to affect the brain quickly because it consists of tiny molecules that can easily permeate the delicate tissues of the organ.
Find the right treatment program for alcohol abuse today.
Since alcohol is a liquid, it is absorbed faster than some of the other addictive substances that have to be broken down before they reach the bloodstream.
This causes a change in the response from the central nervous system since alcohol prevents brain receptors from being able to communicate properly.
Excitatory nerve communication is greatly affected because alcohol is a suppressant. This can lead to someone struggling to think clearly and respond accordingly to the information that they receive from their environment.
Essentially, alcohol affects the nervous system by disrupting nerve communication and slowing brain response, which in turn affects a person's body responses.
How Alcohol Affects The Body
Alcohol affects the body by preventing the fight-or-flight response, which is controlled by the central nervous system, from being triggered. This is why a person's breathing and heart rate become slower when they drink alcohol. It is also the reason their ability to use their senses, like sight and smell, will decline.
Men will notice that alcohol makes it more difficult for them to get or maintain erections. Women may notice that alcohol decreases their ability to become sexually excited.
Interestingly, many people falsely assume that the opposite is true because of the myth that alcohol reduces a person's inhibitions. In reality, excessive drinking affects the central nervous system by making it more difficult to think clearly. This can lead to a person acting in ways that they normally wouldn't consider appropriate.
Risks And Dangers Of Alcohol On The Central Nervous System
Having a drink can reduce inflammation in the body and help a person to relax after a stressful day. But how alcohol affects the nervous system and the rest of the body when a person drinks too much on a long-term basis is different.
Some of the risks and dangers of conditions that can develop from alcohol's effect on the central nervous system include:
Thiamine is essential to the conversion of food into energy. Normally, a person gets all the thiamine that they need from a healthy diet. But if they regularly abuse alcohol, this can block the body's ability to absorb the vitamin.
A few of the signs of thiamine deficiency are:
development of beriberi
Alcoholic neuropathy is caused by the damage that excessive drinking does to the peripheral nerves that are responsible for sending information between the spinal cord, brain, and other body parts.
Some of the symptoms of this condition include:
loss of muscle tissue
sensation of the skin being pricked with a needle
Short-Term Nervous System Damage
If a person continues to abuse alcohol, they may experience a number of side effects to the brain, nerves, and other areas of the body.
Symptoms of short-term nervous system damage caused by alcohol abuse include:
decreased alertness
Long-Term Nervous System Damage
Long-term alcohol abuse leads to a number of adverse health consequences, including risks for cancer, weakened immune system, and damage to the nervous system.
Some conditions which affect the central nervous system and can develop with prolonged alcohol abuse include:
permanent damage to the brain's nerve-signal pathways
Alcohol Withdrawal And The Central Nervous System
Those who drink excessively become physically dependent on alcohol.
If they try to stop drinking without medical supervision, they may experience dangerous withdrawal symptoms, which can include:
grand mal seizures
The muscles and other organs that the central nervous system controls can be affected, too. It is common for a person who is going through alcohol withdrawal to notice that they suddenly have stronger responses to stimuli, because their body no longer has a suppressant in its system. Nightmares and mood swings are another effect of alcohol withdrawal on the central nervous system.
Find Help For Long-Term Alcohol Abuse
Long-term alcohol abuse causes severe damage to the body and brain. Some of the damage may be treatable if a person gets the treatment that they need in time. Anyone who has a loved one suffering from an alcohol use disorder should call one of our representatives for a list of the best alcohol rehab centers that can help.

Another thing that I am annoyed at the fact that everyone at school wants to know what Im reading and immediately they want to read it and then when they do, they do not give me credit for telling them, and no one that I personally talk to take my suggestions and then two years later, they read it when it gets popular! GIVE ME SOME CREDIT!!!!!!!

DONT FORGET ABOUT THE GIVEAWAY!
The One by Kiera Cass was really good. I loved the plot twists that happened and I also loved how it brought out the feels. It was a really good book and reading it was really fun. America was a little better at her annoying habits. But the plot was really good and I loved how Maxon acted throughout the book. I just loved it all. I didn't like a few components but I don't want to spoil anything so I won't say. But all in all, a great book. You guys should definitely read the series if you have not.
Okay, I really shipped the main characters in this book. This book is hard to get into and slow at some times but great plot. I think some of you guys would love it, you just have to get past the beginnings and the slow parts and it is really good. All in all, Graceling was good, but confusing. So if you want to learn more, look it up on Google because it will be hard for me to tell you what it is about and not spoil it for you. So check it out.
Kiera Cass has just released (well a little while ago) on the Epic Reads YouTube channel that shed will be releasing more books of the Selection series. And here is the even better part. IT WILL BE FROM A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW!!!!! So I (and those who agree with me) don't have to deal with as much of America's annoyingness. I do love America at times, but at others, she is BAT VRAP CRAZY AND ANNOYING AS HELL!
The beginning of this book was kind of confusing and slow but once you get into it, it is witty and fun and mysterious. It is a historical fiction/fantasy so it is very interesting. I honestly didn't like it at the beginning because of how slow it goes but you will totally regret it if you do not finish the book because I thought that it was great and well written and so interesting because Dodger meets people like Charles Dickens in it and an insane barber that cuts peoples throats so it is a really interesting book so you should totally check out what it is about and pick up a copy.
Im sorry I haven't been posting, I can't think of some books that I want to review. I'm taking forever to read Graceling so you'll have to wait a little longer for that review. The next book that I will be reading after Graceling is The One By Kiera Cass. And Im very excited to read that. And for all you selection fans out there, Kiera Cass said that there will be even more books in The Selection series and they will be told from a different point of view so very excited about that as well. You can comment a book that you want me to review if you want to see if you want to read it or see if I have the same point of view on things.
Now dont go looking for this online because it has not come out yet. That's right, I got an advanced readers copy of it. On the cover, there is a sticker what it says, THE MISSHAPES*Alex Flynn, Uncorrected Proof, and Not Final Cover so yeah. AMAZING! I got an advance copy like a month before it came out from the publisher. The publisher is Polis Books so you should definitely check them out. I'm actually waiting for another book to come from a publisher or an author called, Up The Tower. So that will be lots of fun too. I feel so special because like this publisher sent me a book and as soon as I read it, I will send out a review of it. Telling you if it was good or just okay or absolutely horrid or maybe even absolutely awesome. You never know.
Now this is not a video book haul like you see on the Youtube(hehe) this is just me writing about the books, so up first is Doon by Carie Corp and Lorie Langdon. This was a really interesting book, I already read it and I dont know if I did a book review on it or not so Ill just not tell you what it is about for now, but it was interesting. I thought that it was a little slow to get into. It kind of dragged for about 70 pages but then all of these amazing things happened so it was really good, I definitely recommend it. My second book is Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. Now I already kind of read this book, I mean I read like 100 pages and got agitated by the cover because it showed a realistic picture of the girl and I didnt like that, so I waited for the new cover to come out and I finally got it. The third book is Alienated by Melissa Landers. I have heard so many good things about this book and I am so eager to start it!


The new SIRS-E Showroom provides a creative live display of a floating ceiling cove design. Featuring a double lit cove using both the RGB Pixel DMX LED Strip and the AcuHue Series RGBW for general cove lighting. The sharp edges and angles give this feature a colorful contemporary design. With a total of 80 custom recessed fixtures, the effect is multidimensional and sure to appeal to the senses. The whole idea behind this project was to transform the room's feel and mood with the varying lighting effects possible. For the dynamic LED Pixel animations, Madrix was used for control. The room can go from a modern, layered accented look for day to day use, all the way to discotheque style vivid and dynamic moving effects.


The purpose of commercial general liability insurance is to ensure a contractor involved in a project has the insurance resources to pay for unexpected property damage or personal injury loss arising during its construction operations. Ensuring all tiers of contractors on a project maintain adequate CGL insurance is an important means of managing and allocating the risks among project participants. If a roofing contractor hires a subcontractor, the roofing contractor has liability for the acts of its subcontractor. For example, if your subcontractor is working on a reroofing project and is in the middle of tearing off a section of the roof when a pop-up storm occurs, the roofing contractor can be held liable for any resulting water damage to the interior of the building where your subcontractor was working. Therefore, you want to make sure your subcontractors have adequate insurance to cover them in the event of a loss arising from their operations or work.
Insurance coverage depends on the policy language. Variations in policy terms may leave gaps in coverage. Because of labor shortages and competitive reasons, roofing contractors are more frequently hiring subcontractors and labor-only subcontractors who may have a non-standard CGL policy issued by a non-admitted, surplus line, insurance carrier. Non-standard policies invariably contain exclusionary policy language or endorsements, which can drastically reduce or eliminate basic coverages that roofing contractors typically expect a CGL policy to include.
The contract provision below focuses on two types of exclusions found in non-standard CGL policies that are particularly worrisome for roofing contractors—the open roof exclusion and open flame or torching exclusion. Although the language may vary from policy to policy, the open roof exclusion typically is worded to exclude any damages from moisture entry resulting from an "open roof"—i.e., when a roof system or section of a roof has been removed, leaving the decking, supporting structure or interior of the building exposed to the intrusion of water, sleet, snow or hail. The torching exclusion typically is worded to exclude any property damage caused by the application of open flame or heat-applied roofing materials, so a fire casualty from torching would be excluded from insurance coverage.
A Certificate of Insurance for a non-standard CGL policy will look identical to a standard CGL policy. Thus, it is not enough to request a copy of your subcontractor's Certificate of Insurance. Rather, to ensure your subcontractors have adequate insurance coverage in place, a roofing contractor should obtain a copy of the subcontractor's policy and all endorsements. A roofing contractor should include a provision, such as the one mentioned, within the insurance requirements section of any subcontract used when hiring a subcontractor.
Prohibiting non-standard CGL policy with open roof or torching exclusions: Commercial general liability insurance maintained by Subcontractor shall not include an exclusion or coverage limitation applicable to open roofs, water damage claims, heat-applied roofing, or use of open flame or torching. Roofing Contractor shall be entitled to withhold moneys otherwise owed to Subcontractor in the event Roofing Contractor has reasonable grounds to believe that it may become legally obligated to a pay claim or damages due to the Subcontractor, including a failure by Subcontractor to maintain insurance required by this Agreement.


Over the last two years, veterans wounded in combat and youth interested in learning leadership skills through scuba involving marine science activities have been volunteering at Mote Marine Laboratory's underwater coral nursery in the Florida Keys.
Not only do these combat wounded and youth volunteers provide important support to Mote — accelerating the coral reef restoration work undertaken since 2006 — they also inspire and challenge one another in a way that only the undersea community can provide.
Thanks to this ongoing partnership, Mote will be setting aside an area in our coral restoration site to honor American servicemen and women. In July, members of the Combat Wounded Veteran Challenge, SCUBAnauts International and the Gold Star Teen Adventures will be coming together with Mote scientists to work at this underwater site for the first time.
"Our mission with this project is multi-faceted," said Dr. Michael P. Crosby, President & CEO of Mote Marine Laboratory. "Because we have the southernmost marine research laboratory in the nation, we're dedicated to restoring the only barrier reef in the continental U.S. And, as an organization dedicated to helping the public understand ocean ecosystems and in supporting the next generation of scientists, we're always looking for new opportunities to involve 'citizen scientists' — like the SCUBAnauts, like the Combat Wounded Veterans and the Gold Star Teens — in our research programs.
More than seven years ago, Mote established our underwater coral nursery where scientists grow colonies of the threatened staghorn coral (Acropora cervicornis) for replanting on decimated or damaged sections of reef within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. When the colonies reach a suitable size, small fragments nearly 2 inches long (about 5 cm) are snipped off and used to create a new colony — similar to the way new plants are grown from cuttings of existing plants. Today, we have about 15,000 coral colonies — some 250,000 fragments — growing in our nursery.
"Members of SCUBAnauts International and the Combat Wounded Veteran Challenge have been with us working in the nursery since 2012, coming out to help propagate coral and replant fragments in our transplant area near Looe Key," said Erich Bartels, Manager of Mote's Coral Reef Science and Monitoring Program who oversees the coral nursery project.
Gold Star Teen Adventures provides adventure camps to the surviving youth of Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps Special Operations personnel who have lost their lives in the line of duty.
The Combat Wounded Veteran Challenge improves the lives of wounded and injured veterans through rehabilitative high-adventure and therapeutic outdoor challenges while furthering the physiological, biomedical and pathological sciences associated with their injuries.
SCUBAnauts International's mission is to guide young men and women ages 12 through 18 along an exciting pathway for personal development by involving them in the marine sciences through underwater marine research activities, such as special environmental and undersea conservation projects, that build character, promote active citizenship and develop effective leadership skills.
"We are very grateful to Mote for providing this exceptional opportunity for combat wounded and injured veterans to show by example to our youth that their limitations are what they place on themselves," said retired U.S. Navy Capt. David Olson, who founded SCUBAnauts and the Combat Wounded Veteran Challenge.
This trip also provides SCUBAnauts with an opportunity to truly understand the meaning of overcoming challenges, said Jim Cassick, Executive Director of SCUBAnauts International.
As part of this Challenge Expedition, Combat Wounded Veteran amputees will collect information and medical data in a partnership with St. Petersburg College of Orthotics and Prosthetics to contribute to the science of human performance, rehabilitation and recreation in extreme aquatic environments. Amputee veterans not already certified will be receiving their SCUBA certification from Divers 4 Heroes, a non-profit organization with the mission to introduce a gravity free environment, our underwater world, to all warriors who have been injured.... mind, body, or spirit.
Special thanks go to the Guy Harvey Ocean Foundation, Oceanic Warrior Program, Divers 4 Heroes, Derby Lane and Dive Key West for supporting this effort.
2014 marks the third year that Mote Marine Laboratory has partnered with the Combat Wounded Veteran Challenge, SCUBAnauts International and the first year that Gold Star Teen Adventures participants are joining us. We are seeking funding that will allow us to expand our partnerships and provide additional opportunities for members of these groups to work with us in our underwater coral nursery. For information on how you can help, please contact Development Officer Jason Wolf at 305- 393-6022 or jwolf@mote.org.

Tim Duncan: the Training and Nutrition Beast You Never Knew About
Learn how Tim Duncan's approach to training and nutrition powered his 19-year career as one of the best players in NBA history.
San Antonio Spurs power forward Tim Duncan, arguably one of the 10 best players to ever step foot on an NBA court, retired today. That's a strange statement, one we've be waiting to write for what feels like a decade, yet Duncan just kept chugging along. His hair got grayer, his stride a little slower, but the Big Fundamental remained effective until the very end, when he was relegated to the bench in the Spurs' matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the 2016 Western Conference Semifinals.
At age 40, after 19 years in the NBA, Duncan finally decided it was time to go. His decision only makes his longevity more impressive. The big man was still playing 30 minutes a game as recently as two seasons ago. And yet, consistent with Duncan's quiet personality,we never heard much about how he kept himself going, how he handled the extra mileage that comes with making the playoffs in every single season of his career.
But when you do a little digging and learn more about Duncan's strict attention to both his training and his diet, it's easier to understand how he lasted so long playing one of the most physical positions in the game for almost two decades. Between the 2012 and 2014 seasons, he lost a good 20 pounds, as he participated in intense workouts that included swimming, sand running, tire flipping and boxing, the last of which he spent much of the 2012 off-season doing with fellow center Roy Hibbert. He was known for beginning his off-season workouts at the Spurs' practice gym in July, a month before the doors were opened to the team.
To relieve pressure on his legs and knees, Duncan also changed his diet as he approached his mid-30s.
"He lost a lot of weight," former teammate Bruce Bowen said in 2012. "In fact, when we would go out to eat, Tim would split the bill and we had a big plethora of food out of us. But now, he's starting to eat wheat bread and chicken only, no mayonnaise, no mustard, none of that."
Duncan also cut down on sugar and bread consumption as he got older, and he stopped snacking late at night. We may not know Duncan's exact diet, but it worked well enough that Al Jefferson, who just signed with the Indiana Pacers, credits Duncan for influencing him to lose weight to prolong his career down in the post.
"I had to get the pressure off my knees, man," Jefferson told SB Nation last year. "Tim Duncan set a great example. He lost his weight, he got down, and he's 38 or 39 still playing at a high level. I just turned 30, and it was time to add some years to my career, man. I've still got a lot of ball to play."
As Duncan leaves the game behind after his Hall of Fame career, countless athletes will look to his legacy for guidance on how to extend theirs. They'll just have to do some serious research to find it.

I have loved reading for as long as I can remember. In fact, I can tell you exactly the book that convinced me to become a writer. Flowers in the Attic by V.C. Andrews. I was eleven years old when I read the novel, and I became so overwhelmed with the idea of creating characters and stories that readers could love the way I loved Flowers in the Attic, that I started writing my first novel shortly thereafter.
Fortunately for you all, that eleven year old little girl's work will never be published, but it started my love affair with writing and diving into worlds and characters that I could get lost in. In 2015, I published my first book, On the Other Side of Aether, and am working to bring the whole series to print by the end of this year.
Outside of writing, and as my introductory line suggests, I'm always incredibly busy. I recently graduated with a master's degree in social work. When I'm not at work, I can be found shouting near-obscenities at hockey games on television or occasionally finding the time to see a Live at the Met in HD performance at my local theater. Now that I'm done with school, I'm trying to re-adjust to having free time. It sounds simple, but believe it or not, it's a struggle to structure that newfound free time into something productive.


Between the Anigrus and the mountain from which the Jardanes rises, a meadow and a sepulchre are shown, and the Achææ, which are rocks broken off from the same mountain, above which was situated, as I have said, the city Samos. Samos is not mentioned by any of the authors of Peripli, or Circumnavigations; because perhaps it had been long since destroyed, and perhaps also on account of its position. For the Poseidium is a grove, as I have said, near the sea, a lofty eminence rises above it, situated in front of the present Samicum, where Samos once stood, so that it cannot be seen from the sea.
Here also is the plain called Samicus, from which we may further conjecture that there was once a city Samos.
According to the poem Rhadinē, of which Stesichorus seems to have been the author, and which begins in this manner, "'Come, tuneful Muse, Erato, begin the melodious song, in praise of the lovely Samian youths, sounding the strings of the delightful lyre:'" these youths were natives of this Samos. For he says that Rhadinē being given in marriage to the tyrant, set sail from Samos to Corinth with a westerly wind, and therefore certainly not from the Ionian Samos. By the same wind her brother, who was archi-theorus, arrived at Delphi. Her cousin, who was in love with her, set out after her in a chariot to Corinth. The tyrant put both of them to death, and sent away the bodies in a chariot, but changing his mind, he recalled the chariot, and buried them.
