Developer Cheerio Posted September 23, 2013 Developer Share Posted September 23, 2013 This tutorial will teach you how to create a mod which replaces the music in 'Don't Starve'. For this tutorial, we're going to replace the main menu music. This tutorial requires:- PC version of 'Don't Starve' and 'Don't Starve Mod Tools'- The 'Music Mod Tutorial' mod installed through Steam Workshop or on the Klei Forum downloads. Tutorial:All music in 'Don't Starve' is triggered through events. To change what music plays, we need to create a new sound event using the FMOD designer and then tell the game to use that sound instead. Let's get started! To launch the designer, Double click on the 'Don't Starve Mod Tools' in steam. Now inside the designer, browse to your mod folder and open 'music_mod.fdp'. Next click on the events tab and scroll down till you find the 'music_FE' event. Right click on the blue area and click on replace sound. Browse to the mod folder and select 'sample_music.wav'. Press 'CTRL+B' to bring up the build menu and click the build button. You can now close the designer. Browse to the mod folder and open up a file named 'modmain.lua' in your favorite text editor. Remove the two dashes next to the 'music_FE' line and save the file. Now start the game, enable your mod and you should now hear your new main menu music. Happy modding!

Dordogne Hotels Annie Loves
On my last visit to the Dordogne–in June 2017–I tried three hotels, two of which I am happy recommending. Why do I not recommend the third one? The people were super friendly there, but the beds were not comfortable and halls looked like a Motel 6. But you can check it out if you’d like: it was the Hôtel Le Périgord in Port de Domme, near La Roque-Gageac.
Now, on to hotels we DO recommend, especially if you’re on a honeymoon or romantic getaway. Château La Fleunie in Condat-sur-Vézère was a lovely find. It is an honest to goodness château in the Dordogne! Yours for the night for as low as around 100€ per night.
Here’s a gotcha: some of the hotel is air-conditioned, the rest is not. The twin room we booked in the chateau proper was not. Because it is an actual chateau dating back from the XII century, we hoped the thick walls would keep us cool, and they did, but only to a point. If you’re going between May and October, be prepared and book one of the air conditioned rooms.
This is one of those great Dordogne hotels that is not only a chateau, but it has a great-looking pool too! Since we didn’t have AC, we cooled off in the pool for a couple of hours, a very French thing to do. There isn’t a bar near the pool, but you can order a drink at the bar.
The restaurant attached to the hotel is stylish and the food pretty good, but I think it’ll be some time before they can aspire to any Michelin stars. I give them kudos for outstanding service, but the food was meh and the night we were there they were mostly serving hotel guests. .
This would be a great hotel for honeymooners and probably a nice place to hold a wedding reception too!
Hostellerie La Roseraie in Montignac: this is a charming hotel right in the center of Montignac. It is plush, comfortable, the rooms are pretty, we had a great night sleep there and I am pretty sure you will too. The lady at the desk was polite (I said polite, not friendly or warm). This hotel does not have a pool, but it has great air conditioning inside the rooms, which made up for it.
There was a heat wave under way when we visited, so we were grateful for it. There are lovely sitting common areas in this hotel, but they are not air conditioned and were too warm to sit and read or sit and write, too bad, we should go back during a cooler season.
This hotel also has a strange-looking elevator. It looks like it was added recently and it is slow. It is nonetheless effective when hauling suitcases, and it also makes the hotel wheelchair accessible. We enjoyed the small city of Montignac, the walk along the Dordogne river was great, it’s an unpretentious place with friendly folks and a lovely church.
If you are going to visit the Dordogne, you need to plan out both your hotels and what you’re going to do every day because you will be assaulted by offers once there. The Dordogne is quiet all year and surprisingly touristy in the summer months. You may want to listen to Episode 82 and Episode 46 to prepare for your visit. I will soon publish a new episode specifically about my latest trip which included the hotels mentioned on this page.

How do we store fat?
How does our body store fat? Fat, (adipose tissue) is found in several places in the body, generally underneath the skin (subcutaneous fat). There is also some fat surrounding your vital organs for protection. An adult man tends to carry body fat in his chest and abdomen, producing an “apple” shape whereas women will carry fat in their breasts, hips, waist and buttocks, creating a “pear” shape. The difference in fat location comes from the sex hormones oestrogen and testosterone.
Generally there are three fat layering periods when the body is much more inclined to convert excess energy from the diet into fat cells. These periods are: during the third trimester of pregnancy as the foetus is developing; between nine and eighteen months of age; and at onset and duration of puberty. If there are significant excess calories present during these “layering periods”, then more fat cells will be produced (hyperplasic adiposity) and this means more fat cells for life!
It was always thought that following these fat layering periods, the number of fat cells was set for life, and that as we overeat, these fat cells simply get bigger (Hypertrophic adiposity). However, we now know that continued overeating will lead to new fat cells emerging even in late adulthood, and it is this new fat cell growth that is more difficult to counter.
Hope is now emerging for people that have always been overweight (people with excess fat cells). Just as we believed that once these new fat cells developed they were with you for life, it is now thought that if fat cells can be reduced to a certain size for a period longer than 9 months, they are programmed to die off. The significance of this finding is that hyperplasic adiposity is reversible, which was previously thought impossible. This is also why diets don’t work – they are too short-term and only shrink your fats cells, which simply leads to adiposity rebound – and you know what that means!
Set point theory suggests that following 9 months at a particular weight our bodies will re-set the “set point”, linked to the current number and size of fat cells. In other words, if you can lose weight and maintain it for at least 9 months, you have a good chance of long-term maintenance of the new lower weight. (Conversely if you are overweight for more than 9 months, this will become your new set point, and losing weight will be more difficult.) This is seen as the “ratcheting” effect of continual weight gain through life – or chronic hyperplasic adiposity.

Pakistani Politics Risk Aggravating Problems and Heightening Regional Tension
Self-serving Pakistani politics threaten to aggravate the country’s myriad problems that have strained its relations with the United States and could heighten tension in the restless, key geo-strategic region of Balochistan, a vital node bordering Iran in China’s Belt and Road initiative and the earmarked home for the People’s Republic’s second foreign military base.
Pakistan’s short-sighted political battles are being fought at a time of worsening relations with the United States over alleged Pakistani support of militants and concern that the United States may withdraw from the 2015 international nuclear agreement with Iran. They potentially create a dilemma for China which is heavily invested in Pakistan with its more than $50 billion China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
Keen to prevent ousted former Prime Minister Nawal Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League – PML-N from winning a majority in elections scheduled for July, the Pakistani military, in the latest incident, appears to be backing efforts to force Nawab Sanaullah Zehri, the PML-N Chief Minister of Balochistan, to resign.
The stage to remove Mr. Zehri was set last week when the province’s interior minister, Sarfaraz Bugti, known for his close ties to the armed forces, stepped down after co-sponsoring a motion of no-confidence in the chief minister in the provincial assembly.
The targeting of Mr. Zehri, signalled the closing of the door on already failed efforts to drive a wedge between various nationalist Baloch insurgent groups and weaken Islamic militants that have wreaked havoc in Balochistan with attacks on Chinese, Pakistani military, and Shiite targets.
Closing the door amounted to kicking a dead body. Informal contacts between the Baloch provincial government, the federal government when Mr. Sharif was still in office, and Brahmdagh Bugti, a Baloch nationalist living in exile in Switzerland, who heads the Baloch Republican Party, fizzled out when Mr. Zehri came to office in late 2015. Nonetheless, Mr. Zehri refrained from slamming the door shut.
By the same token, Mr. Bugti’s demand that Pakistan end its military and paramilitary operations against nationalist forces in Balochistan, a resource-rich, population-poor region the size of France that straddles the border with the Iranian province of Sistan and Baluchistan, as a pre-condition for formal talks was likely one reason that the contacts failed.
More militant nationalists refused to endorse Mr. Bugti’s position, but quietly watched whether he would make headway. Even so, there was no guarantee that the militants would have accepted a deal negotiated by Mr, Bugti, whose grandfather, Nawab Bugti, was killed by the military in 2006, a year after he had presented a plan for greater Baloch autonomy that stopped short of demanding independence.
The timing of the effort to topple Mr. Zehri and foreclose renewed contacts with Baloch nationalist factions could not be more sensitive. It comes, against the backdrop of a long history of military support for militant religious groups to counter the nationalists in Balochistan, and at a moment that the armed forces have used militants elsewhere to weaken the PMN-L while at the same time refute US allegations that it backs extremists in Pakistan as well as Afghanistan.
The Trump administration said last week that it was cutting almost all security aid to Pakistan believed to total more than $1 billion until it deals with militant networks operating on its soil. Pakistan, in response and in advance of a visit this month by a United Nations Security Council team to evaluate Pakistani compliance with its resolutions, has sought to crack down on the fundraising and political activities of Hafez Saeed, an internationally designated terrorist accused of having masterminded the 2008 attacks in Mumbai.
The crackdown constitutes a double-edged sword. Pakistan and its military needs to be seen to be acting against internationally designated terrorist groups, yet Mr. Saeed has been treated over the years with kid gloves. His organization was allowed to continue operations under multiple guises and although he was put under house arrest several times, he was not remanded behind bars. It wasn’t clear whether the crackdown by the PMN-L-led federal government of Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has the backing of the military.
Mr. Saeed has recently attempted to move into mainstream politics with the backing of the military. Military support was “a combination of keeping control over important national matters like security, defense and foreign policy, but also giving these former militant groups that have served the state a route into the mainstream where their energies can be utilized,” a senior military official said. Mr. Saeed, who headed Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), widely viewed as one of South Asia’s most violent groups, was a military proxy in confronting India in Kashmir.
Associates of Mr. Saeed said that their participation in this summer’s election was in part designed to prevent the PMN-L from returning to office. “There is little else more patriotic than ensuring the ouster of the Sharifs. Pakistan needs a government that serves Pakistani, not Indian interests,” said Nadeem Awan, a spokesman for Jamat u-Dawa, widely seen as a LeT front headed by Mr. Saeed.
Former Pakistani strongman General Pervez Musharraf, said last month that he was discussing an alliance with Milli Muslim League (MML), the political party Mr. Saeed is trying to register. Speaking on Pakistani television, Mr. Musharraf pronounced himself “the greatest supporter of LeT.”
The military, also last month, displayed its political influence and inclination by mediating an end to a weeks-long blockade of a main artery leading into Islamabad to protest a perceived softening of the government’s adherence to Islam in a proposed piece of legislation.
The resolution was seen as favouring Tehreek Labbaik Pakistan (TPL), the organizer of the protest. TPL is a political front for Tehreek Labbaik Ya Rasool Allah (TLR), which glorifies Mumtaz Qadri, who was executed for killing Punjab governor Salman Taseer because of his opposition to Pakistan’s draconic blasphemy law.
All in all, the Pakistani military appears to be embroiled in battles on multiple fronts in a Herculean effort to satisfy target audiences with contradictory demands. Countering the PML-N by supporting religious forces complicates refuting US allegations of support for militants.
It also risks escalating violence in Balochistan and enhancing opportunity for external players like the United States and Saudi Arabia to use the province as a launching pad for efforts to destabilize Iran should they opt to travel down that road.
President Donald J. Trump has to decide this month whether to certify Iranian compliance with the nuclear agreement and waive US sanctions. A failure to do so could lead to a US withdrawal from the agreement.
China, by the same token, sees Pakistan’s use of proxies against India as useful, yet needs stability in Balochistan to secure its massive investment.
Pakistan could well be the ultimate loser in battles between its various institutions that appear focused more on vested interests than on resolving issues that have long held the country back such as extremism, intolerance, and ensuring fundamental rights. In pursuit of their own interests, neither the United States nor China appear willing to help their Pakistani allies look beyond their narrow and most immediate concerns towards the development of policies that would launch the country on a path of security, stability and economic prosperity.

At least 15 friends shared the cited post on my Facebook wall today. What you think about? I am working day to day with silver nanoparticles, but...
Condoms treated with silver nanoparticles could ‘completely inactivate’ HIV, other STDs
Canadian researchers say they have found a solution to the humble condom’s fatal flaw: nanoparticles.
Condoms have a 15% failure rate, so a University of Manitoba team tried soaking condoms in a solution packed with “remarkable,” microscopic silver nanoparticles, and the treated devices appeared to kill all HIV and herpes in lab experiments, the scientists report.
“Till now, there has been no single condom with additional protection against sexually transmitted infections available on the market,” noted the group’s paper just published in the International Journal of Nanotechnology. But when their novel nanoparticle condoms contacted HIV, “the infectiousness of the virus could be completely inactivated.” full article here

Most of us are familiar with Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, a timeless classic for the Christmas season. Maybe we read the story at some point, or we've seen a film or theatre version of the work that Dickens wrote in 1843. After all these years, why does A Christmas Carol still resonate with us, no matter our walk of life? I think it has something to do with love, family, and our common humanity.

Arsène Wenger says the most consistent team will win the Premier League title, and believes this season is different and less predictable than previous years.
"What has changed in the league this season is that all the teams can make results," he said. "You have seen Birmingham against Chelsea. It is like that anywhere. It is not that you go there, turn up and take three points. That has gone. After March, some teams will be safe, or will not go for Europe and you take some easier points, but from now until then in this championship the consistent team will get it."
The Arsenal manager also said the club are "prepared to go as far as we can" in pursuing their legal action against Netherlands over the injury which Robin van Persie picked up while on international duty.
"Something needs to be done," said Wenger when asked about the possibility of suing the Dutch FA. "Hopefully we can set a precedent for the future." But Arsenal are still waiting for their lawyers to make a decision on whether legal action could be won if they seek compensation for the loss of their striker.
Van Persie injured his ankle while playing in a friendly against Italy last month, and is likely to miss much of the remainder of the season. Wenger is hoping to bring in players during the January transfer window to provide cover for those who are injured, and some who have international duties at the African Cup of Nations.
Cesc Fábregas is to have a scan on his hamstring and Wenger knows he may be without his most creative player for up to three weeks if the Spaniard sustained a tear while scoring against Aston Villa on Sunday. Arsenal also have Denilson out with a back complaint, but could have their Czech midfielder Tomas Rosicky fit again for the trip to Portsmouth on Wednesday.
"I have said we will keep our eyes open and if a good opportunity turns up we will do it, but at the moment I haven't got any (names)," said the Arsenal manager. "I will have to look maybe as well at midfielders and how big the damage is. If we lose Denilson and Fábregas we will be short there. I don't know yet.
"Alex Song will join up with Cameroon on 4 January," Wenger added. "The rule is the same. We have to free the players two weeks before the competition starts, which is 10 January, but Cameroon have chosen to join up later. That is their choice, we did not make a request."

Sorry I haven’t been in touch for ages…there is no excuse.
There was a bout of depression that nearly got me, but I will tell you about that later.
I have just returned from a holiday in Thailand that included bathing and feeding Elephants. Seeing the process of their “poo” being turned into paper.
Learning the secrets of Thai cooking at a cookery school in Chiang Mai. Then travelling further south to explore some of the islands and their beautiful beaches. Experiencing the healing effects of Thai massage.
Why would I now feel depressed?
I became very aware of the negative internal chatter in my mind. Part of me was imploring another part of me to stay upbeat. But I couldn’t. In fact, feelings of negativity had me sinking fast!
I was feeling depressed. Why?
Was it that my wonderful holiday was over? That I’m still grieving? Maybe I was just overwhelmed by my workload? Or perhaps it’s Brexit?
What soon became clear is that the WHY does not matter. Continually exploring the ‘whys’ only brings more negative thoughts to the surface. Changing my state became my priority and doing this quickly, my goal.
Here is what I did to fight the depression
The first and most important thing was to change the “internal chatter.”
At the risk of this sounding like a plug for one of my self-help downloads, I started to listen to Stress Free With Confidence. This is a hypnosis program I made almost thirty years ago. After just two days I noticed my thinking had changed quite dramatically and as a result, found myself smiling again.
My thoughts were brighter. When a negative thought arose it quickly switched to a positive one. The change was automatic and the good thoughts began to flow again.
More importantly was the shift in my feelings and I felt more upbeat.
This helped me to get moving.
Exercise helped me move forward and invigorated me. Walking activates the heart and lungs and changes the way you breathe. When you change the breath it will often change the way you think and feel. A couple of walks in my local park and surrounding streets really helped.
So did reaching out for support from loved ones and close friends whom I was able to share my feelings with. It’s so important, in fact essential, to reach out. Call someone. Talk about it.
Yoga always gives me the space to gain insight into my feelings and this awareness helps me to “catch” myself before I fall too far. I did a slightly longer practice each day.
Having re-booted the stress free programme in the back of my mind, I also started juicing again which boosted my energy.
I applied a great Ayurvedic treatment and gave myself a top-to-toe sesame oil massage before languishing in a bath. This felt nurturing and nourishing.
Sometimes just one small change can make a huge difference to the way you think and feel.
For example if your job requires sitting at a desk all day, get up regularly and move a round. Take the stairs rather than the lift where possible.
I love that quote …“Think you’re enlightened? Spend a week with your family!”
For many, family is the messiest part of life. People just won’t do what we want them to do will they!
Christmas holidays often mean spending prolonged periods of time with people who can push your emotional buttons, so what’s your plan to survive Christmas and the strong opinions or personalities that can arise at this time? Check out my tips below.
The Christmas holidays are a perfect time to develop a regular mediation habit. Start with 5 minutes, building to 7 and then 10 minutes a day by week two. Along with enormous health benefits, at this time of year meditation can offer you the perfect excuse to get away and give yourself some much needed time and space. Check out my other blogs or click here for simple meditation techniques.
2. Breathe To Alleviate Boredom
I remember someone telling me of their dread of the office party and the boring conversations they had to endure each year. If you get stuck with the office bore try practising a simple breathing technique whilst they’re talking to you. Keep looking at the person and subtly bring your awareness to your nostrils, silently count One on your next inbreath, two before you breathe out, three as you exhale and four before you breathe in again. When you’ve counted 5 ‘whole’ breaths in this way make your excuses ” well, it’s been great catching up and I want to talk to …. now, enjoy the rest of the party” and run!
3. Develop compassion.
If step 2 seems a bit harsh, maybe you can develop the art of active listening? You’re with the office bore again (except you no longer refer to them in such a way) imagine you can drop down into a very peaceful space within and begin listening with an open heart, i.e. with absolutely no expectations, no desire to escape and without a need to fix them, question them or judge anything they say. Good luck with that!
4. Boundaries. Where are yours?
What is your tolerance level for a particular person? So for example you don’t get along with your sister can you sit open-heartedly listening to her for 5 minutes or 10? What and where is your limit? It’s important to know yourself in this respect. Think about these interactions ahead of time. Once you’ve reached your tolerance level with that particular person have an “I need to get up and get some water”statement handy, so that you can change your position and your state. Plan ahead, is it possible to arrange to sit next to someone you do enjoy talking to?
5. Booze. Is it time to monitor your intake?
At what point might you say something you could regret? If two drinks leave you merry and sweet but four make you a bit mouthy… perhaps you need a plan. Think ahead. How do you want to feel when you wake up after you’ve been out partying? When you look back over the previous evening’s events do you want to be happy with your ruminations or will you be cringing because of something you said or did? Will that extra drink make the difference? Plan ahead and decide when enough is enough. Before you go out think about an alternative to alcohol get a really clear picture of it in your mind, for example imagine a nice glass of sparkling tonic water with a shot of lime cordial and a twist of lemon, or a pot of freshly brewed coffee.
Christmas is an especially good time to be thoughtful, kind and generous to others but I hear so often of people (usually women) who have run themselves ragged trying to make the perfect Christmas for others only to end up ‘coming down with something’. So be kind to yourself first, it’s then easier to give authentically to others. Make time for you and as you give yourself a bit of space ask yourself “what do I want, what do I need.” When your cup is full there’s a tendency to only want for the good of others and if you’re okay, you’re in a better position to take care of others.
Thank you for taking the time to read my blogs, visit the site and purchase products I really value your feedback.
Wishing my family, friends, clients, yoga students and readers a great Christmas and all you would wish for yourself throughout 2019.
Reactions to stress are stored in the mind and body, they shape our perceptions and view of the world.
Constant repetition of the fight, flight and collapse response takes its toll on the immune system and leaves us susceptible to illness, disease. Similarly mental responses to stress include anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance and phobias.
Therefore self-care on more than just one level is vital to our health.
More importantly, finding ways of controlling our reactions to stress mentally and physically, rather than allowing it to control us, is essential to being a well being.
I should know I’ve been a stress management expert for many years and my clients know that even one small change makes a huge difference to the quality of life and can help you cope better.

Stress management is something that has to be built into and made part of each day.
Furthermore, repetition is the mother of all skill and stress management requires practise.
You wouldn’t expect to go to the gym now and then to have a strong, toned body and it’s the same with maintaining a calm, relaxed state in the face of stressful events and triggers.
Firstly you have to know the difference between stressed and calm. Practise a Progressive Relaxation. Do it Now!
Simply tense every muscle starting with your face, screw your eyes up, your mouth, neck, shoulders arms etc right the way throughout your entire body, tensing until it’s almost unbearable then slowly release and enjoy the feeling of gentle relaxation spreading through your body.
Secondly repeat this as often as possible so that you train and engrain the right responses to stress.
Finally, stop the stress reaction more quickly by recognising tension and stress as it’s creeping in. Consciously pay attention to that knot in your shoulder or tightness in your neck, use it as a trigger to start the relaxation response.
Because stress increases when we forget to breathe properly humming and whistling will help you to breathe better. A whistle or hum is effectively an exhalation.
Try it now, you’ll notice that you take a bigger, slightly longer inhalation after you’ve whistled or hummed. Increased breath means more energy and a calmer state and better equanimity of mind.
Most importantly reprogram your mind to combat stress while you sleep. The Stress Free With Relaxation program allows your subconscious mind to absorb positive suggestions and counter daytime stress triggers.
Maximum effort required, put in earbuds as you drop off to sleep. Return On Investment = Feeling rested and refreshed with a positive state of mind and wellbeing. Effortless!
When Louisa was younger she used to love people watching with her sister when they were in the car. They would take it in turns to pick out a stranger who they would judge and criticise for something, each trying to out-do the other with insults.
When she was older Louisa felt more and more uncomfortable indulging in what had once felt like harmless fun.
She’d reasoned as a teenager that it didn’t hurt anyone because the strangers couldn’t hear them and it eased their boredom.
Years later however Louisa recognised that the discomfort she felt stemmed, not only from being mean to innocent strangers, but also because of what it told her about herself and her attitudes.
What our judgements say about us
If you can be unkind about a stranger, how mean are you to yourself? Do you spend a lot of time criticising the way your friends and colleagues behave? Then you’re probably harsh and critical about yourself.
Judging others means you’re judging yourself. When we point the finger of blame or judgment at another, you’ll notice three fingers pointing back at yourself. We levy a much heavier burden of judgment on ourselves when we judge others.
In life we tend to attract mirrors of ourselves, in our partners, friends and colleagues.
Look at the things in others that you like or dislike, love or hate, you’ll discover that they are aspects about yourself that you are not owning.
Consider the one thing that you find most abhorrent, something you believe you would NEVER do – be very careful, because you almost certainly house some aspect of that deep within your psyche!
So the next time your inner Judge starts pointing, be kinder to yourself and curl those fingers into a yoga mudra (gesture). Bring your thumb and index finger together and slowly repeat the words ‘I am peace, you are peace, there is peace’
Judging takes up a lot of psychic energy and takes us away from the here and now. Next time you catch yourself judging, distract your mind by singing the lyrics to a favourite tune.
Constant judgements mean that we are not accepting what is, which creates conflict and creates mental turmoil.
Sack the Judge and treat yourself a to a mental holiday. Discover more peace and positivity when you retrain your brain with my positive thinking book and audio.
There, I’ve said it these are some of the charming names attributed to women experiencing menopause. Women who have reached a stage in their lives where they are no longer able to bear children. Names mainly levied on us by the patriarch of the past.
The reality of course is that Women are wise and when we realise that pretty much everything that walks the planet is born of woman, we are in fact Creators, Goddesses even.
When we consider the pain and suffering women endure to give birth to humanity, shouldn’t women be honoured, respected and revered at every stage of life?
Some stories portray the crone or hag as disagreeable, malicious, or sinister often with magical or supernatural abilities that can make her either helpful or obstructive. Well that’s pretty much true of all of us really, men and women.
And as if creating, birthing, nurturing and child rearing isn’t enough, woman have the menopause to look forward to with it’s myriad of symptoms.
There are hot flushes, dryness, sleep problems, excessive tiredness. Oh and then there’s the rapid mood swings, along with that wonderful feeling that your brain matter has been swapped for a cauldron of cotton wool!
Want to know about more symptoms? Google NHS menopause for more information.
Because so many of you have asked me to write about the menopause what I offer you here are my tips and beliefs for dealing with this phase of life.
It’s a time for cleansing on many levels and clearing out the crap!
Many women at this stage realise that they can no longer live incongruently or out of sync with themselves, it just doesn’t work anymore.
People, jobs, gatherings and even friends that were tolerated in the past have no place during the menopause.
Maybe the description of Crone as disagreeable, unpleasant and ugly arises because during the this phase, women often wont tow the party line anymore.
In menopause women are no longer prepared to bend and mould to the ideals of another or even their own earlier scripts.
Many women I’ve worked with yearn to return to themselves, to be more authentic and congruent, done with their roles and labels.
Some want peace, some want fun, or to be heard, whilst others crave adventure. It’s time to do it differently.
So let’s welcome the menopause and treat women in this stage of life with a reverence for their innate wisdom and knowledge.
We teach other’s how to treat us.
Like all things, that which we seek outside of ourselves must be found within first. What can you do today to welcome and revere yourself?
The Hot Flush
I remember the first hot flush that roared up my neck and face like an inferno. Feeling distinctly uncomfortable I got up to distract myself when someone brought me a glass of cold water. Its was a kind act of awareness, considerate and thoughtful. One that remained with me.
After that I learned to stay present with flushes, other than to reach for a glass of water. You’ll also find an ice pack or a packet of frozen peas on your pulse points pretty handy at this point.
Instead of running away from or trying to avoid this physical phenomena, I urge you to stay with it. Dive into the feeling, embrace and welcome it in, there’s a wisdom in it somewhere.
That Which You Resist Persists.
I hear you say that’s all well and good but what if I’m in a meeting or an important event? Same advice – stay with it. Everything reaches a peaks and has to subside. The more you panic or try to stem it the more fierce it can seem. If you’re fidgeting around mopping your brow and looking uncomfortable people will notice more. Imagine you’re loving that feeling of warmth.
12 Tips for coping better with Menopause
1. When you feel a flush rising, aim to stop what you’re doing and sit down. Slowly sip a glass of cold water until it passes.
2. Allow yourself time and space to yield to the feeling. You’ll notice that when you do this, that the feeling passes more quickly.
3. Try this lovely yoga breathing exercise called Sitali. This is the version I practice and it must be done sitting in a well ventilated space. Not standing on the platform of the station or in a room blasting out air-conditioning.
4. If sleep disturbances are your main issue and you keep waking up or struggle to get off to sleep, treat yourself to my hypnosis audio program Sleep Well Now or read up on the tips in my book The Art of ZZZ’s
5. Where possible allow yourself some quiet meditation time on a daily basis.
6. Gentle yoga stretching such as yin and hatha yoga are ideal for personal practice. I prefer to practice and teach fluid movements with weight bearing poses and attention to the breath.
7. Yoga lowers blood pressure, counters stress and can alleviate pain and discomfort, do a littel each day.
8. Your temperature can go up and down like a fiddler’s elbow during the menopause, so invest in a proper silk pashmina, it will keep you warm when you feel chilly and cool when you’re hot! They’re also great for mopping up the excess schvitz!
9. Keep a fan in your pocket or bag it gives you a sense of control when your body heats up.
10. The homeopathic remedy Sepia worked brilliant for me, minimising symptoms such as brain fog and tiredness.
11. I’ve practised Ayurvedic principles for many years and found Pukka Herbs’ Aloe Vera juice to be the best. It’s cooling, great for the skin and helps with problems like constipation. It also acts as a carrier taking herbs to body parts that need them.
12. I would drink a shot glass of aloe vera morning and night and take the herb Shatavari – also from Pukka, which helps to combat the dryness that can come with menopause.
There’s a notion that we’re no longer in our masculine warrior phase, out there chasing and hustling a living. It’s time to sit back into the powerful energy of the feminine and allow ourselves to receive.
The feminine energy is depicted by the moon and in the same way that it’s cool brightness can throw light across a darkened sea. This can be a time of enlightenment as we take time to ‘be’ and receive our inner wisdom.
Naturally we’re all different and these are just things that worked well for me I hope they help you. Share your tips with me on my Facebook page thestresshacker or in the comments section below.

Krill Oil Plus – Testimonial
What’s the deal with krill oil?
My grandparents took cod liver oil, as a liquid, from a container. Gross, yet reasonable.
Traumatized by cod liver oil, my parents chose instead to take fish oil in capsules. Much much better than raw, fluid oil – however still not tasty.
And also me? Well, nevertheless my study, I’m giving krill oil a go. It’s apparently the brand-new generation of fish oil, with a number of unique benefits.
Individuals have taken some kind of fish oil for ages. Fish and shellfish is thought about to be particularly beneficial when included in the diet plan, and the reason for that is the presence of 2 special omega-3 fatty oils: EPA as well as DHA. While a few other non-seafoods have omega-3’s, it’s not remotely near the amount consisted of in different fish – and also most significantly, it’s an extremely various kind of omega-3.
Many different health and wellness consultatory teams have actually recognized a trouble with North American diet plans: we do not consume sufficient fish nowadays. The ordinary American eats approximately one fish dish per week.1 I typically eat no fish meals per week!
Thankfully I located VitaPost Krill Oil Plus. There’s absolutely nothing questionable concerning these little red softgels – all I taste is a tip of vanilla flavor. They’re Buddy of the Sea Licensed, and best of all, the price is right.
Why Do People Take Fish Oil?
Omega-3s generally came to be preferred in the 1930s after they were found as important dietary fats. They’re called ‘omegas-3’ because of a chemistry factor – the initial dual bond from the omega end of the carbon chain seeks the 3rd carbon … anyhow, that’s trivial. What is essential is that our bodies can’t produce omega-3s from other sorts of oil, so we require to get them in our diet plan. It coincides with omega-6s, however in contemporary diet regimens we actually get way too much omega-6s.
Individuals in the ’30s didn’t realize the various sort of omega-3s had different effects and also utilizes in the body. It wasn’t until the late 70’s that an association was made between an entire lot of healthy and balanced people as well as two omega-3s you can only receive from seafood: EPA and DHA.
Nowadays nutritional experts and also insurer alike know just how important it is to obtain DHA and also EPA. And also if you’re not eating sufficient fish (or various other seafood like shrimp), then fish oil is the next best thing. Or is it?
It’s been half a lifetime since 1980. If krill oil was about when EPA as well as DHA came to be ‘a thing,’ it would have been far more popular.
The Advantages of Krill Oil
Because the main benefit of fish oil is the omega-3’s, it makes sense to choose a solid omega-3 supplement, right?
For a nutritional supplement to be solid, your body has to take advantage of all of it. Things regarding fats as well as oils is they can be tough to digest. Way too much oil as well as it’ll just pass throughout you. The omega- threes in krill oil is taken into consideration to be much more easily absorbed than those discovered in fish oil. This is because half of krill oil’s EPA and DHA is connected to ‘phospholipids,’ which are much easier to absorb than the plain ‘triglycerides’ in fish oil. An additional perk that krill oil has, is that it’s thought about to be really stable as well as devoid of heavy metals.2.
I assume lots of people who do not obtain many omega-3’s in their diet might take advantage of krill oil supplements. Omega-3’s are thought to support heart health and wellness, skin health, joint health and wellness, and mind health, things which relate to many individuals. I have dived into a few of the study below to see what is credible and also what needs better examination.
Omega-3 fats are believed to sustain a healthy and balanced cardiovascular system. Krill oil consists of phospholipids that are thought to support healthy and balanced cholesterol degrees within the typical range. Phospholipids are an unique sort of lipid (fat) that forms a part of every cell membrane layer and assists to control molecules as well as ions passing in as well as out of the cell. Krill Oil Plus includes 100mg of phospholipids in a regular offering.
The researches have actually revealed a mix of results, some great, some negative. I found a research study that compares older and also more recent research studies to discover the reasons for the different outcomes of omega-3 fats. The meta-analysis located total proof still sustains the American Heart Association’s suggestion of having 2 portions of fatty fish per week.3.
Some individuals are blessed with a normally stunning glow. For the remainder people, we look to skin care, serums and also supplements to help attain the exact same result. One nutrient you might wish to consider is astaxanthin. This antioxidant has expanding proof that it can be taken for skin appearance, specifically aging skin.
Astaxanthin is thought to aid support the look of aging skin by impacting the expression of collagenases (the enzymes that break the peptide bonds in collagen). Krill oil is an all-natural resource of astaxanthin, and it is the active ingredient responsible for krill oil’s bright red ‘pop’.
A higher consumption of omega-3 fats EPA as well as DHA has actually revealed potential in sustaining cognitive feature, especially for individuals with mild cognitive impairment.
Fantastic news for expecting moms, supplementing with very-long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) while pregnant and also breastfeeding can also profit infant’s IQ. In one research study, expectant females supplemented with omega-3 fats from midway via maternity through to 3 months postpartum. Youngsters whose moms had taken these omega-3 fatty acids later on racked up greater on intelligence tests.4.
Although fish oil has far-ranging benefits, sustaining joint health and wellness is the reason so many individuals begin reaching for this supplement. Individuals that supplement with omega-3 daily have discovered this substantially supports their joints.5 When it comes to krill oil, the intense antioxidant astaxanthin has actually likewise been associated with the assistance of connective cells as well as healthy and balanced joints.6.
It’s very easy to see why individuals take krill oil supplements. Contrasted to supplementing with vitamin C or iron tablets, krill oil seems to be more about supporting overall wellness as opposed to taking on certain problems or deficiencies.
The clinical neighborhood has confirmed numerous terrific benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, as well as I am sure there are several various other advantages yet to be validated.
Why select Krill Oil Plus?
With a sea of krill oil supplements on the market, it can be tricky to recognize exactly how to choose the ideal one. Here are several of the conditions I utilized to assist select a krill oil supplement:.
The planet is a restricted resource and it is something we all have a duty to consider, not just for our own sake but for our children and also grandchildren. Sustainability is especially crucial for the sea as our survival relies on the oceans.
While there are a number of rogue cowboys in the fish oil supplement industry, one characteristic of a sustainable manufacturer is the Buddy of the Sea accreditation. This certification is the only lasting fisheries qualification program that is identified and also monitored around the world by a National Accreditation Body. VitaPost consumer assistance kindly gave the Good friend of the Sea certification (RINA, No. FOS92/18) for the fishing companion that provides Krill Oil Plus.
Soft Gel Dimension.
I learned the hard way is not all fish oil supplements are made the very same. Some are about an inch long and are dreadful to swallow!
Fortunately, Krill Oil Plus is a teensy half-inch oval. Now when I visualize omega-3 supplements, I visualize these bright red softgels, regarding the dimension of a finger nail.
Preference & Scent.
One of one of the most off-putting aspects of fish oil in any form is the idea of the dubious smell or preference. This is especially real for any person that matured slurping a tsp of cod liver oil or taking an old- institution fish oil tablet computer with the unpleasant aftertaste.
Fortunately times have changed and also today’s krill oil softgels are very advanced. Some softgels utilize a specially-formulated capsule to postpone the release of fish oil; some make use of a flavored pill. The Krill Oil Plus softgels have a subtle vanilla flavor. This smells like freshly baked cookies – and also I have not experienced any kind of questionable aftertaste.
Offering Size and Warns.
You ought to take one softgel of VitaPost Krill Oil Plus once or twice daily or as directed by your healthcare professional. Depending upon how many capsules you take each day, one bottle can last one to 2 months. At two softgels a day, you’ll be getting 200 mg of very-long-chain omega-3s (EPA & DHA) in addition to 200 mg of phospholipids. That goes a long way in the direction of your weekly omega-3 consumption!
It is suggested you take Krill Oil Plus with dishes. This is due to the fact that consuming oils on a vacant tummy does not appropriately promote the production of the bile that is used to break down oils – leading to inefficient absorption. I.e. it would be a waste.
This product has crustacean shellfish with the krill. As the visibility of fish, the softgel capsule is made from gelatin (bovine) so it is not a vegetarian or a pescatarian item.
Just like any kind of supplement, always talk with your healthcare specialist prior to using any kind of dietary supplement.
Of all the krill oil supplements on the market, I am most delighted to advise VitaPost Krill Oil Plus. It has a reputable sustainability accreditation, it consists of a solid quantity of advantageous phospholipids and EPA/DHA, and the pills do not have any kind of questionable preference or scent.
These supplements are easy to take, both in dimension and aroma. I such as that there is adaptability around whether you take 1 or 2 capsules per day. I mean if you wished to experience the impacts quicker, you could take 2 each day or if you intended to make the supplements last longer just take one per day. I like the option!
Krill oil is most definitely worth taking into consideration for an everyday well-rounded support supplement. Whether you are trying to find skin support, heart support, cognitive assistance, joint assistance or something else, VitaPost Krill Oil Plus has something for everyone.

NEW YORK – Direct marketing could not find a more ardent fan than Richard Thalheimer, chairman/CEO of The Sharper Image and keynote speaker yesterday at the National Retail Federation’s shop.org annual conference.
The San Francisco retailer has been using direct marketing across print, television, radio, catalog, solo mailers, package inserts for most of its 25 years.
“I’m a direct-response advertiser, The Gap is a good example of a display advertiser,” Thalheimer told a crowd of 350 e-commerce and marketing executives. “To me, I want to see a measure or source for every dollar I spend on that return on investment model.”
The company last year spent between $35 million and $40 million on catalogs, $22 million on infomercials and $2.5 million on radio. Results to such an outreach are measured on a current basis, Thalheimer said.
“We expect to get a payback within 90 days,’ he said. “If it doesn’t happen, then we consider the campaign finished.”
The monthly catalog is the biggest direct marketing vehicle for The Sharper Image. Seventy million copies are mailed out a year. And frequent attempts are made to refresh products.
Still, it is hard for the company to attribute sales to a particular direct channel or 118 stores nationwide. So, like many retailers, the emphasis is on a seamless multi-channel experience for consumers shopping across channels.
Of course, it helps that 75 percent of all Sharper Image products are unique to the retailer, developed internally. This avoids the need to compete with rivals on price points.
Thalheimer, who openly acknowledged Amazon.com and DVD rental site Netflix.com as his online favorites, debated the costs of selling on the Internet versus the catalog.
“It costs us about $50,000 a page to get a page out in the catalog in production and postage costs, and we estimate the life of the product is 30 days,” Thalheimer said.
But that’s because the catalog drops each month, he said. A page’s costs rise to $80,000 in December because of the holiday. Still, that is $700,000 for a 8-inch-by-10-inch page, which will reduce to 7 ¾-inches-by-9 ¾ inches due to postage increases.
Online, that is not an issue for product pages on sharperimage.com, Thalheimer said. Only the initial investment is required for setup.
“That online page, the second month is free,” he said.
His advice to the attendees is to have as many images and products on the page. This avoids frustrating U. S. consumers, most of whom have dialup Internet connections.
Moreover, consumers do not like switching back and forth between pages and prefer all information on a page – something the company keeps in mind in page design.
Retailers should also use e-mails more judiciously. The Sharper Image customers say they prefer contact no more once every four weeks.
Indeed, Thalheimer said outbound e-mails are considered one of the biggest irritants online. Good retailers and marketers should let consumers opt out and also be aware of not abusing the number of e-mails sent out.
“Some day there will be regulation that will stop it altogether,” Thalheimer said.

In-gas-cell resonance laser ionization has been performed on long-lived isotopes of Pu at the IGISOL facility, Jyvaskyl ¨ a. This ¨ initiates a new programme of research towards high-resolution optical spectroscopy of heavy actinide elements which can be produced in sufficient quantities at research reactors and transported to facilities elsewhere. In this work a new gas cell has been constructed for fast extraction of laser-ionized elements. Samples of 238−242Pu and 244Pu have been evaporated from Ta filaments, laser ionized, mass separated and delivered to the collinear laser spectroscopy station. Here we report on the performance of the gas cell through studies of the mass spectra obtained in helium and argon, before and after the radiofrequency quadrupole coolerbuncher. This provides valuable insight into the gas phase chemistry exhibited by Pu, which has been additionally supported by measurements of ion time profiles. The resulting monoatomic yields are sufficient for collinear laser spectroscopy. A gammaray spectroscopic analysis of the Pu samples shows a good agreement with the assay provided by the Mainz Nuclear Chemistry department. ...

"We are asking the community to help us solve these cases," Durham Police Chief Jose L. Lopez said. "We know that there are people who have information on these shootings and we need them to come forward."
The most recent one happened Saturday on Atka Court. A 16-year-old girl was shot in the back of the head while standing in a parking lot.
She remains in stable condition. A male was seen running to a dark-colored SUV that was parked near the scene. The SUV, which was occupied by three other people, sped from the scene.
On June 14, a 14-year-old was shot in the buttocks while on Hart Street.
The victim was walking with two other children when shots were fired from a gray vehicle similar to a Chrysler PT Cruiser. Bullets also struck two parked vehicles and a stop sign.
In the third incident on May 23, a 7-year-old was shot in the foot outside an apartment on South Hoover Rd.
According to witnesses, shots were fired from a green 4-door vehicle, possibly similar to a Ford Escort. Police believe another person returned fire at the vehicle.
"I know some people may be apprehensive about providing information, but we need your help to make this a safer community for all of our children in all of our neighborhoods," Mayor Bill Bell said.
Anyone with information about the crimes should call District 1 investigators at 560-4281 or CrimeStoppers at 683-1200. CrimeStoppers pays cash rewards for information leading to arrests in felony cases and callers never have to identify themselves.

After a difficult and disputed drafting, on July 5, 2017, the Italian Parliamentapproved the Act n. 110/2017, which introduced the crime of torture in Italy.The lack of will of Italian Parliament in promulgating the law, even thoughStrasbourg Court urged in several occasion to reform the law in order to avoidcases of insufficient sanctions in case of violation of art. 3 of the EuropeanConvention on Human Rights, can be explained through a redefinition of themodel of legislative rationality: legislator might be considered rational whenit enacts ambiguous legislative texts at the lowest electoral cost if it urged todo by the pressure of supranational jurisdictions. Finally, even though thisact needs continuous intervention by the judges, who could adopt the role ofsubstitute legislators (thus violating the legality principle), the norms enactedmight be considered “ethically justified” since enhance legal remedies againsttorture. For, our redefinition of rational legislator does not imply a form ofmoral scepticism in public affairs.

Helping our patients maintain a healthy mouth and smile is the main goal of general dentistry. Oral health is a key indicator of overall body health. We prefer to provide more minor, preventive care than to see patients require more intensive treatments due to a problem that was not managed over time. We want to ensure that your oral health is optimal, thus positively contributing to the health of your entire body. The team at Schneider Family Dentistry is here to brighten your smile and pave the way for a brighter life.
Cleanings And Exams
This is routine and preventive care, comparable to physicals and bloodwork performed by your primary care doctor. Our hygienists clean the plaque and tartar from your teeth, take xrays to check for cavities and monitor bone density, and monitor your gums for recession, inflammation and irritation. Your dentist then does a thorough oral exam, checking jaw alignment and function, autoimmune issues, enamel health, tooth and bite alignment, soft tissue health, and airway health. In addition, they look for decay, oral cancers, and other potential problems.request an appointment
When tartar and plaque lead to decay, tooth enamel erodes allowing germs to penetrate teeth. This leads to cavities, or holes, that need to be filled. Schneider Family Dentistry uses ceramic tooth-colored fillings to fill cavities. We can also replace old fillings as needed, especially old non-bonded fillings that have created cracks in the enamel. This often prevents the needs for crowns and other more expensive treatments. We are proud to use the industry’s best composite filling materials and “bonding agents” which allow us to replace the damaged or chipped part of the tooth quickly and painlessly with a near-perfect match.request an appointment
Special coatings can be applied to teeth to ‘seal’ and protect them so they are less likely to get cavities. Sealants are often used on children, since they are still learning to brush properly. Some adults also get sealants, usually if they are more prone to cavities due to tooth structure, diet, or inability to properly brush.
Fluoride makes teeth stronger and more resistant to decay. We recommend fluoride toothpaste and we apply fluoride treatments during hygiene visits. Fluoride is more effective when applied directly to the teeth, rather than ingested.
An extraction is performed to remove a tooth, whether because of disease, crowding, or damage. When extractions are required, the area around the tooth will be numbed and your dentist will remove the tooth. A small amount of bleeding is normal, as your mouth will replace the removed tooth root by forming a blood clot in the area.request an appointment
It can be difficult to determine the source of dental pain. Our dentists are skilled at diagnosing difficult to find dental pain. We use several techniques to isolate the source of the pain and then diagnose the problem and recommend a treatment plan.request an appointment
Chips & Breaks
Broken teeth can happen to patients of all ages. We take pride in working to get these dental emergencies in quickly, sometimes in the same day. We are proud to use the industry’s best composite materials and bonding agents (like glue) which allow us to repair the damaged or chipped part of the tooth quickly and painlessly with a near-perfect match.request an appointment

If you asked me what I thought was the biggest way to impact a room’s look, I’d say one word: paint! Painting is fairly easy to do, inexpensive, and comes in so many choices, so it can really transform a room’s look. Of course, if you’ve ever spent time debating paint colors and trying to pick one out, you know that it can be a nail biting experience some times. One cool tool to make things easier and find color inspiration is Glidden's My Colortopia Show Your Colors Gallery. The gallery has user submitted before-and-after painting projects to really demonstrate how paint can transform a room’s look.
One of my projects is even in the gallery! The very first project we took on when moving into our house was repainting our powder room. The previous owner had painted the bathroom a bright electric blue color and to make matters even worse, the walls, ceiling, and back of the door were all painted the same terrible color. You know, so the room really felt like it was about to close in on you! We repainted the room ASAP, but interestingly enough we stayed in the blue family- this time it was just a much softer and more elegant shade of blue.
You don’t have to go far to see all of the before-and-after projects featured on Show Your Colors, just check out the widget below! It’s full of great paint transformations and inspiring projects. Scroll through the photos below to see the projects. You can even submit your own photos.
Have you done any painting projects recently? Do you have a go-to paint color or palette of colors you like to use?
Note: I have been sponsored by Glidden brand paint to write this post but the thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.

The Battles began on season 14 of The Voice, with the coaches all tapping a celebrity mentor to help prep their teams for the next stage of the competition. Julia Michaels joined Team Adam; Trace Adkins joined Team Blake; Shawn Mendes joined Team Alicia; and Hailee Steinfeld joined Team Kelly. Each coach gets two steals during this round.
The first battle matchup was Jamai and Sharane Calister from Team Alicia. Keys had them sing Mendes’ own “Mercy.” Both were very powerful singers, and they sounded great together. “They blew the roof off this whole place,” Keys said after their first rehearsal. This season showed battle stage rehearsals, and Calister and Jamai both seemed ready in theirs, exhibiting confidence.
In their battle, both Jamai and Calister showcased impressive performance skills and delivered on the vocal front, too. They were very evenly matched, leaving Keys with a hard decision. The coaches all seemed stumped as to who the frontrunner was, but Keys picked Calister as the winner, and no one opted to steal Jamai.
For her first battle ever, Clarkson paired former boy band singer Dylan Hartigan and the 14-year-old artist Brynn Cartelli. She had them sing an edgy arrangement of “Ready For It” by Taylor Swift that suited both of their voices. Steinfeld and Clarkson worked with them on figuring out how to move on stage. Clarkson said they did their homework for their stage rehearsal.
In their performance, Hartigan and Cartelli were well matched, too. They had strong chemistry on stage, and together they transformed the song into something totally new. “You’re a star,” Levine told Certelli, adding that even though Hartigan’s energy was infectious, he thought Cartelli was the winner. Clarkson chose Cartelli, and just when it looked like Hartigan might go home, Shelton stole him.
Team Blake was up next, and Shelton paired former competitive bodybuilder JessLee with experienced backup singer Kyla Jade. Shelton said he wanted to give them something outside of their respective genres, so he had them sing “One Last Time” by Ariana Grande. Jade realized in rehearsal that she needed to find a more aggressive approach since she was reverting back to being backup. In their stage rehearsal, Jade had improved in asserting herself and making sure she was taking up enough space.
Though it was a strange song choice for both artists, they ended up delivering a fun battle that allowed them to showcase their technical abilities. Keys praised JessLee’s versatility and said Jade still needs to work on opening herself up. Shelton chose Jade, and JessLee went home.
Team Adam was up next, with Levine pairing Rayshun LaMarr and Tish Haynes Keys. He had them sing “Sweet Thing” by Chaka Khan. Michaels said she can feel that LaMarr, who overcame cancer, has been through a lot when she hears him sing. LaMarr said he was nervous to battle Keys because of how “flawless” she has been so far. In their stage rehearsal, both artists were at the top of their game. It was bound to be a killer battle.
LaMarr and Keys indeed brought the heat in their final performance, and both struck that ideal balance between working together but also striving for their own edge. Clarkson said Keys reminded her of Aretha and said she would probably pick her, but Shelton said it was equal. Levine surprised by choosing LaMarr, but it seemed inevitable that Keys would be stolen. Clarkson went for it, scooping up Keys for Team Kelly.
Team Alicia was back up, this time with a battle from Christiana Danielle and Shana Halligan. Keys had them sing “Use Somebody” by Kings Of Leon. Keys compared Danielle’s voice to Ella Fitzgerald’s and praised the indie quality of Halligan’s voice. Their coach came up with a lovely, indie folk arrangement of the song to suit both of their voices. Mendes said he was drawn to Danielle’s tone in rehearsal.
Their final performance was gorgeous and emotional. It can sometimes be harder to pull off a battle with more subtle, slow arrangements like this, but Danielle and Halligan found ways to make it just as dynamic and engaging as the more upbeat song choices. Halligan occasionally struggled with her enunciation, but there’s something special about her voice. “The moments that were powerful were very, very powerful,” Levine said. Shelton said he would pick Halligan, but it was ultimately up to Keys. She chose Danielle, and Halligan went home.
Team Kelly closed out the night with a battle from D.R. King and Jackie Foster. Clarkson had them sing “Sign Of The Times” by Harry Styles, a song choice that fit both of them well. “They are incredibly big singers,” Clarkson said, adding that she thought they could handle it. They definitely did, already sounding strong in their first rehearsal. Clarkson was specific with her coaching, and it paid off, pushing King and Foster to new levels.
Foster and King closed out the night of battles powerfully, both showing off their huge voices without ever oversinging. They are both powerhouse singers, and they made it difficult for Clarkson to choose a winner. “That was honestly my favorite battle to date,” Keys said, adding that the situation “sucked” for Clarkson. But she had to choose, and she went with King, leaving Foster on the chopping block. But all three coaches swooped in for a chance to steal Foster, who chose to join Team Adam.
The Battle Round continues tomorrow night on The Voice.

Kozma helps rally Cardinals
BY HOWARD FENDRICH Associated Press
Saturday, October 13, 2012
10/13/12 at 4:53 AM
Related story: Sabathia, Yankees hold off Orioles.
WASHINGTON - Doesn't matter how bad things look for the St. Louis Cardinals. Trailing by a bunch, down to their last strike, they simply stay calm and do what it takes to win.
Erasing an early six-run hole in Game 5 slowly but surely, the defending World Series champion Cardinals got a tying two-out, two-run single from Daniel Descalso and a go-ahead two-run single from Pete Kozma in the ninth inning and came all the way back to beat the Washington Nationals 9-7 Friday night and win their NL division series.
It was the largest comeback ever in a winner-take-all postseason game, according to STATS LLC. No other club in this sort of ultimate pressure situation had come back from more than four down.
First-year manager Mike Matheny and the wild-card Cardinals, the last team to clinch a playoff spot this year, will open the NL championship series at San Francisco on Sunday.
Down 7-5 with two outs in the ninth against Nationals closer Drew Storen, the Cardinals twice were a strike away from losing. But Storen walked both of those batters, Yadier Molina and David Freese, setting the stage for the unheralded Descalso and Kozma - Nationals manager Davey Johnson even called the rookie "Cosmos" before Game 4 - to come through.
When Cardinals closer Jason Motte got Ryan Zimmerman to pop out to second base a half-hour past midnight, the Cardinals streamed from the visiting dugout for a rather muted celebration, all in all.
This was nothing new to them.
Over the past two years, St. Louis is 6-0 when facing elimination, including victories in Games 6 and 7 of the 2011 World Series against Texas.
Down to their last strike in the Fall Classic a year ago, trailing by the exact same 7-5 score, the Cardinals rallied in Game 6 and then took the championship in what turned out to be the final year with the club for slugging first baseman Albert Pujols and then-manager Tony La Russa. Now Matheny, who got the Cardinals into the playoffs as the second NL wild-card team on the next-to-last day of the regular season, has them back in the NLCS.
And to think: Washington, which won the NL East and led the majors with 98 wins, got off to as good a start as possible Friday.
Seven pitches, three runs. Just like that, Jayson Werth's double, Bryce Harper's triple and Zimmerman's homer got the hosts jump-started in their first Game 5.
That opening outburst, plus a big third inning highlighted by the 19-year-old Harper's homer, made it 6-0.
St. Louis was not about to go gently into the night, though. The Cardinals chipped away, chipped away.
Suddenly, it was 6-4. Descalso's homer made it 6-5 in the eighth. And a four-run ninth completed the reversal.
