How would you live your life if you possess the ability to foresee the future?
Would it help you to live a better and more fulfilling life?
The answer is probably different for each and every individual. Some of you may say that fortune telling is taking away all the surprises life can bring, others may oppose, they would live a happy life avoiding all the bad choices they have made.
This idea may seem distant and far-fetched, but the truth is that magical abilities once available only to prophets and magicians are now accessible to anyone thanks to predictive analytics.
Predictive Analytics is not something new. It has already been around for some time but is gaining more attraction only now. Why?
There are 2 prerequisites for predictions to deliver a meaningful value to businesses.
The first, there is a large amount of data. A few years ago, there was simply not enough data about customer behavior, but the situation has rapidly changed since then. People are leaving data everywhere.
We are connected to the internet more than ever before. If we are not using our laptops, we are browsing the internet on our cell phones. We are hanging with our friends on social media, purchasing various products, reading content, ordering food, etc. The majority of our daily life has moved to the virtual area.
And as we are leaving footprints when accessing a store during a rainy day, there are digital footprints we leave when accessing an e-shop, regardless of the weather.
These footprints represent digital evidence, while predictive analytics models can be considered as witty detectives able to find connections between these seemingly unrelated footprints and predict our future steps.
The second prerequisite is computational power. Predictions need a fast and powerful infrastructure. Again, something which was not available up until now. With the advent of big data analytics and cognitive computing, predictive analytics has obtained the computational power required to deliver meaningful insights.
We have the data and the computational power, but what comes to your mind if you hear the word predictive analytics.
Unless you are an experienced analyst or a data scientist, the primary connotation is something like “I do not want to deep dive into this“. The good news is that with the advancement in technology, predictive analytics is no longer the privilege of data scientists but is accessible to ordinary people.
Platforms like Exponea enable anyone to create advanced predictive models and power their marketing campaigns with insights about expected future behavior of certain customer segments.
Insights into customer behavior are something that resonates with the world of digital marketing. Smart businesses understand the value of seeing people behind data and take all measures to collect and analyze as much data as possible.
Modern e-commerce is shifting from a price-based competition to an experience-centric fight for customers. Price is not the differentiating factor anymore, but customer experience is making the difference.
Personalized experiences in the context of predictive analytics are about delivering the right content to highly engaged customers just the moment they are considering whether they will perform a certain action or not. In other words, predictive analytics enables you to nudge the subconscious mind of your customers where the decision-making process occurs.
We are witnessing a new era when predictive analytics is transforming the world of digital marketing into predictive marketing. Predicting the future steps of your customers creates a whole new set of possibilities.
Campaigns efficiency optimization – predictions allow you to find segments of customers with a high probability of successful conversion. Once these segments are identified, you can use predictive analytics to determine which communication channels have the best response rate for each individual customer (emails, banners, SMS). Using these insights, you can target customers more precisely and effectively.
Increased revenue – the fact is that 20 percent of your customers are bringing your business 80 percent of the total revenue. Up until now, you have been able to perform RFM analysis and explore high-value customers and target them with special offers. Now imagine the impact of your campaigns if you can predict which customers will buy from you in the next 2 weeks, months, etc.
Better brand perception – the outcome of targeting only customers with an increased propensity to purchase is that customers with lower engagement may appreciate the decreased frequency of your newsletter or other marketing communication. As a result, optimization of marketing campaigns may lead to increased loyalty. For example, in the context of email campaigns, predictive analytics allows you to send fewer emails with a higher impact.
The same applies to the unsubscribe rate, if you reduce the number of emails sent, you are decreasing chances that your customers will get upset and unsubscribe from receiving your marketing communication.
Thanks to predictive analytics, businesses now possess data about customer history, present, and future. With predictive scoring, you can now enrich your customer profiles with predictive data (probability of purchase, churn, visit, email open).
With the right marketing tool, you can easily power your campaigns with predictive insights stored in a single customer view and create a higher level of personalized experiences for your customers.
In practice it works like this, you run a prediction model on your customer base. For example, a probability of purchase in the next 30 days. As a result, you will obtain a different number for each of your customers which represents the probability of purchase. This data is added to customer profiles and can be used in your marketing campaigns.
For example, you can create a segment of customers with the highest probability to purchase and target them with personalized offers (product recommendations, discounts, etc.) through their preferred channel.
While predictive marketing is still a relatively new area, there are no doubts that it has a considerable potential for the future. According to Predictive Analytics-Global Market Outlook (2017-2023), this market is expected to grow from $3.89 billion in 2016 to $14.95 billion by 2023.
Based on this data, it is reasonable to expect that by 2023, the majority of e-commerce businesses will use predictions to some extent. Although this train is running fast, it may be better to jump in now, as there are still some places to sit, rather than wait until it is safe to enter but completely full and slowly moving.
If adopted properly, predictive analytics can help you shift your marketing campaigns from targeting random customers into smart campaigns powered by predictive customer intelligence.
This will enable you to use your resources more effectively and target only customer segments with an elevated potential of conversion regardless of whatever your goal is (purchase, email open, etc.).

Sir Alex Ferguson claimed today that Manchester United will only sign a player in January that they have been scouting for some time, and with the club being widely connected to Nicolas Gaitan, the Benfica midfielder is set to be the subject of a great deal of transfer rumours coming up to the next window.
When asked whether the Red Devils would be signing any players to cover their growing injury list in January, Ferguson replied: "Not necessarily. I don't know why people keep going on about it.
"[I won't buy] unless someone appears we have always been interested in, but there isn't."
Long-term targets for United have been identified by news outlets around the globe, and scouts for the English giants have been watching Gaitan for some time.
After losing Paul Scholes at the end of last season, it was assumed that United would sign a replacement midfielder in the summer, but the club maintained that they were not in the market for one, and purchased a defender and winger instead.
Now the need for a playmaker appears greater than ever, and though Gaitan would cost the Red Devils around £25 million, his wage demands would be a lot lower than number one midfield target Wesley Sneijder, who United have been connected to on numerous occasions over the last six months.
The starlet has scored eight goals in 32 appearances for Benfica since moving to the club in the 2010 summer, and he has been rated as having the potential to be a top European talent by numerous pundits and experts, including Ferguson himself.
"Gaitan played with intelligence and showed great individual skill," Ferguson said when Benfica faced United in the Champions League group stages, and the Scot is reportedly stepping up his chase of the 23 year old in the hopes of bringing him to Old Trafford.

Child themes are an immensely useful tool that you can and should use for a variety of operations regarding your actual WordPress theme. The simplest explanation of what a child theme is would be that it is a sub-theme that has the same properties and functionalities as the parent theme. Consequently, its main purpose is for you to use it to modify your WordPress theme (your parent theme) without actually changing its files.
First of all, we would like to note that child theme is an extension of parent theme. Consequently, you can only create it as a duplicate of an existing WordPress theme. You can use a child theme for extending already created functions or adding new ones. Therefore, when the child theme is activated, every theme functionality stays the same and you should be able to keep on working as before.
We’ll assume your WordPress site is live and uploaded to a web server and that you’re already using your parent theme. In the following text we’ll guide you through how to create your own child theme.
Navigate to ../wp-content/themes and create yourthemename-child folder.
The best practice is to give your folder the same name as the parent theme. However, you’ll need to add the suffix -child.
Next, you’ll need 3 more core files, each of the different type.
Go to a text editor of your choice and create functions.php and style.css files.
In the style.css file you’ll give your child theme a heading with an appropriate description. Fields are pretty self-explanatory.
And in functions.php file you’ll call your stylesheet using WordPress’ default wp_enqueue_scripts function. This function registers your child theme’s style and performs an action to run it.
Another thing you need is a thumbnail preview for your child theme. That’s the 3rd file mentioned above, in case you’re wondering.
Next, simply go to any photo editor and capture a screenshot of your theme. Name it screenshot.png (make sure you don’t create a JPEG image). Alternatively, copy the screenshot.png from parent theme and paste it in your child folder.
That would be all when it comes to creating your child theme. You should now be able to add custom functions and styles for your active theme. And you’ll do that without modifying the existing code. We hope this was helpful. Let us know in the comments below.
We hope this article to was helpful. If you liked it, please feel free to check out some of these articles as well!

The 26th to 28th October 2012 saw only the second hosting of the Bonitas Radox Golden Gate Challenge by the Wildlands Conservation Trust’s Wild Series team. This trail run event is run in partnership with South African National Parks at the Golden Gate Highland National Park in the Free State, in an area known as South Africa’s “best kept secret” in terms of our national parks. This event was again a huge success, with 187 runners participating in the event and experiencing 3 days of challenging and well-designed trail running. The Golden Gate Highlands National Park offers an incredible network of trails that challenged the most hardy trail runners, but also allowed them the most amazing views and vistas, with an abundance of highland grassland game to keep them company. The event was won by Wayne Scott (8h 6minutes) and Erica Walker (9h 25min) respectively in the men’s and ladies categories while many were relieved to have simply finished the race. Throughout the event, runners were praising the professional manner in which the event was run, and the amazing routes selected for them to traverse, despite grasps from participants when the next day’s race profile was revealed!
The Bonitas Radox Golden Gate Challenge is fast growing into a recognised trail running event on the annual calendar, and will cement itself as a key event for SANParks, as the funds raised from this event going into supporting the development of key infrastructure and management at Golden Gate Highlands National Park. The focus of this support will be primarily on Bearded Vulture conservation, supporting the vulture feeding site and associated vulture hide, allowing many more people to experience close-up views of these amazing icons of the Maluti mountains.
The Wild Series team have again run an event that stands above the rest, and Wildlands would like to thank the sponsors of the event (Bonitas, Radox and Wedgewood), all the Golden Gate Highland National Park staff, and the SANParks Honorary Rangers who made the event run smoothly and safely, and all the participants, your support and funds ARE making a contribution to securing our natural heritage!

After watching much of the Suns vs Spurs series in this years playoffs i got thinking about Bruce Bowen and really am struggling to come up with a definitive opinion on him and his 'Dirty' tag. Bowen has always been an offensively limited or uninvolved player during his career, never averaging more than 8ppg, but has always been heralded as one of the league's defensive elite. Every year people argue tirelessly that Bowen deserves a Defensive player of the year award, as he is yet to win one.
Many argue that Bowen benefits from the Spurs excellent defensive systems and having 'The Big Fundamental' Tim Duncan guarding the rim like a junkyard dog (one that doesn't have facial expressions). But in reality Bowen is truly an amazing and versatile defender, almost always guarding the other team's best player, from 7 foot Dirk Nowitzki, to Carmelo Anthony, to the diminutive Steve Nash, this isn't the issue which perplexes me, i know Bowen is the man defensively, so smart, deceptively strong, possesing crazy lateral quickness and even better timing.
Bowen even has signature dirty moves! The foot undercut after a shot leading to a rolled ankle - Bowen simply doesn't allow the player to land on the ground - ankle go crunchy. Rcently he's added the schoolyard bully trip up and knee to the crotch to his repetoire. In the current playoff series with the Spurs, if evidence is to be believed, Bowen has really outdone himself. Prompting Amare Stoudemire to go to the press calling Bowen and his oddly schnozed teammate Manu Ginobili as 'Dirty players'.
Now i personally would call myself a very physical defender, and much like Bowen i am often put on the other team's best offensive player, and coming from a defensively minded player i have to say i will, if given the oppurtunity take a shot at a good player, in order to get inside his head and knock him out of his concentration, there's no specific rulebook to this obviously, but bumping, holding and bending the rules regarding physicality of defense is part of the game and if you can get away with it, it probably means you're just a smart player. But the line, no matter how blurry has to be overstepped sometimes. In this instance Bowen is really acting improperly by all moral standards of basketball, you can legally bump someone, therefore making a semi-illegal bump a viable tactic, but tripping someone or knee's to the crotch aren't really in the rulebook last time i checked.
I feel as if i should criticise Bowen for his actions and i don't admire him per se, but there's something intriguingly daring about what he is doing. The facts are Amare stoudemire is crying like a baby and the Suns are rattled and down 2-1 in the series, and all this attention on these past games is destroying the Suns focus, Bowen has gotten inside their heads. However, the league is no doubt going to take action against Bowen, the evidence is overwhelming. In relation to his knee to Nash in game 3 he said: "It's just part of the game, I think, that you have to be man enough at times, when you do something and it's not the right thing that you've done, you have to be man enough to say, 'Hey, I'm sorry for that.' That's all it was, in the spirit of competition."
This will no doubt land Bowen in hot water as the league is already reviewing several of these recent incidents, but at the end of the day is it worth it if the Spurs win the series? I'm at a moral loss here to be perfectly honest. My only conclusion is Bruce Bowen - great defender, crap person.

Kansas City United Against Crime, a local crime-prevention initiative, aims to close the gap between local law enforcement and communities in an effort to reduce crime in Kansas City, Mo.
Efforts are underway to organize several events during the month of October. Look forward to more information after Labor Day.
Kansas City Mayor Sly James recently met with President Barack Obama at the White House to discuss violent crime in the community.
James shared how half of Kansas City’s homicides can be traced to a 13-square-mile segment of the 319-square-mile city. Read the Kansas City Star story.
Persons can prevent crime through crime prevention education and reporting crime-related offenses to local law enforcement.
Residents will have the opportunity to learn more about crime prevention with free family activities around the metro area.
Connect with Kansas City United Against Crime on Facebook to stay updated with crime-prevention resources in the community.
LINC is supporting the effort by helping staff the coalition and developing the website and Facebook page. The website contains information about each police patrol division and a map that will show current crimes by typing in a zip code.

You have presented the biomechanics and rehab lectures at FAMI for the past 2 years; what do you enjoy most about teaching FAMI?
Teaching the breakout biomechanics labs where I get a chance to talk about the function of all the anatomy the participants are learning, and transfer knowledge into practical application.
In terms of curriculum at FAMI, what do you find is the most valuable to FAMI attendees?
The anatomy labs where you can view the previously dissected prosections combined with the clinical lectures from the anatomy professors. The combination of 3-d visualization of actual structures and clinical information is very effective.
Many different disciplines/instructors attend FAMI each year – Pilates, yoga, GYROTONIC®, personal trainers, manual therapists – just to name a few. Do you find that creates a positive learning environment at FAMI? How does this variety of instructors/ backgrounds affect the FAMI experience?
It definitely creates a positive learning environment. I think people of varying disciplines come in with distinct perspectives on the material and different ideas on how they’re hoping to use it. It’s great because some practitioners will ask questions that others wouldn’t have thought to ask which expands everyone’s perspective on the information.
As a member of the FAMI staff, what do you find is one of the most consistent characteristics of the FAMI attendee?
What advice would you give to this year’s Winter FAMI participant, as far as preparation for the course?
Think about what you want to get out of FAMI and what your goals are for attending. That way you can come in with the right focus and take advantage of the opportunity to ask deliberate questions to all of the expert presenters.

Chickens are pretty amazing birds. The more time you spend with them, the more you come to appreciate their beauty, their eggs, their personalities, and their ability to communicate. In my family, the language of chickens continually amazes us. Scientists have discovered that chickens have more than 30 recognizable phrases used for communication, and we agree!
“Chicken” is an easy language to learn. The best way to learn what your chickens are saying is through observation. Simply pull up a seat, watch, and listen. Some of the first sounds you’ll get to know are the peeps of happy and content chicks; they express themselves with peppy little peeping sounds as they wander around the brooder exploring their environment. Loud and deliberate peeping signals that the chicks are too cold or that something else is wrong. My favorite chick sounds are pleasure trills. As you watch those new baby chicks drift off to sleep in their brooder, you will hear quiet, subtle, melodic sounds that would be easy to mistake for a cat’s purr. Don’t be mistaken — these are pleasure trills, a chick’s expression of utter contentment.
Chicks don’t develop “adult” chicken sounds until they are around ten weeks of age. During this time, their peeps and squawks begin to evolve into more purposeful communication. As your flock grows, listen to them. You will surely pick up a bit of their language and come to recognize their sounds. Some are obvious, like the crowing of a rooster, while others are subtle.
They will entertain you as they announce that they need to lay an egg, and again, moments later, as they sing the “egg song” that heralds the arrival of a warm egg in the nesting box. They will come and check you out, cocking their heads from side to side, and finally they will say hello: “Buh-dup.” They will even share with others that a threat is nearby.
One of my favorite things our hens do is say goodnight to us. As we go in to lock up the coop at night, we are greeted in the darkness by quiet strings of coos, trills, and “doh, doh, dohs.” I like to think of these as “grown-up” pleasure trills. Yes, most nights we linger and answer each and every one. Here is what our goodnight conversations sound like.
As you learn to speak chicken, you’ll find that the language of chickens is universal. It doesn’t matter if we are at home with our own flock or visiting friends’ chickens. They all seem to speak the same language, and to me that is just simply amazing!

This is the current data for home prices, inventory and market activity for the greater Phoenix area, including Scottsdale. The Scottsdale real estate market has been on an upturn since the end of 2011, when home prices were astonishingly low.

With continued low unemployment rates, sustained population growth and surges in key industries, Arizona’s economy continues its positive trajectory. These were the findings presented last week by prominent economist Dr. Christopher Thornberg of Beacon Economics at the Alliance Bank of Arizona 2019 Economic Forum.
Steady growth was seen across all areas of Arizona, as every major metropolitan area in the state experienced solid job growth and consistently low unemployment rates. Looking from the second quarter of 2017 to the second quarter in 2018, Arizona’s economy grew 6.8 percent compared to 5.4 percent nationwide. Employment increased by 93,900 workers, a 3.3 percent increase from Dec. 2017 to Dec. 2018, while population growth was at 2.2 percent, which was significantly higher than the 0.4 percent experienced nationwide. Similarly, during the same period, the state’s unemployment rate sits at 4.8 percent, which is higher than the 3.9 percent national rate.
Builder confidence in the housing market for those aged 55 years and older strengthened in the fourth quarter of 2018, according to National Association of Home Builders.
The organization’s latest Housing Market Index revealed sales of single-family homes of those aged 55+ increased six points to 66 in Q4.
Real estate investing is one of the best ways to diversify a portfolio and make a little side cash. It’s one of the most stable markets there is, and you can leverage others’ money to make it happen.
According to CNN Business, 2019 may be a good time to invest in rental property, thanks to the reduction of home sales and increase in rentals.

Escape games have become very popular, and although I was very dubious when Mr WembleyWonderful suggested the idea for our 11-year-old, they both came back absolutely enthusiastic . They went to the Breakout Rooms in Watford , which accommodate 2 to 6 people for 1-hour sessions, and offer games of different levels of difficulty.
We also tried mini-golf with 12 kids this weekend, and although I was dreading the logistics of such a large group, it was really fun for everyone (adults included). We went to the Lost Jungle in Edgware , with opened quite recently and is therefore absolutely pristine; and also very accessible as right off the M1.
In the past we’ve also tried horse riding in Stanmore, with the Stanmore Riding School, They offer 30-minute taster sessions on Saturdays and Sundays, which can be booked for birthday parties. You just need to call them (well in advance!) and discuss their available slots – which need to be outside of weekly lesson times.
We’ve also done bo wling in Stanmore (I know, I have somewhat of a geographic bias…) at M18 Lanes. They are open to kids in the day (but not in the evening) and you can book either a kids’ party package or one or two lanes without any package.
Climbing at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre. On top of the weekly lessons, the climbing wall can be booked for private events, where the kids get a climbing initiation with an instructor for 90 minutes. There is also a climbing wall at Hendon, close to Brent Cross, and they also offer private parties hire.
Swimming parties in various pools across London. Many sports centres offer private hire of either the kids or the main pool for parties; very often providing floats! Hertsmere Leisure Centre in Bushey is an example.
Parties at the RAF museum . The place in itself is amazing, even for someone like me with little interest in either planes of weapons.

Trumpeter Chris Botti, who performed Friday night at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis, has become an annual visitor to the Nicollet Mall concert venue. As usual, most of the hall’s seats were occupied, since the constantly touring Botti knows how to please audiences and keep them coming back for more.
The Grammy winner began his career as a jazz musician, but expanding his musical repertoire to embrace pop and rock has made Botti one of the top-selling instrumentalists ever; he’s sold more than 4 million CDs.
Earlier in his career, Botti did separate tours as a sideman backing two of the most successful pop artists of modern times: Paul Simon and Sting. Doing so gave Botti exposure to audiences beyond the somewhat limited jazz category, and he must have picked up some pointers on how to engage an audience and create a sense of intimacy, even in a large, rock-scale venue.
With CD and concert-ticket sales like his, Botti can afford to hire top-shelf musicians and singers, and that is what he does.
One of the most dramatic pieces of the 90-minute performance was Botti’s crystalline rendition of Spanish composer Joaquin Rodrigo’s “Concierto de Aranjuez,” which the late Miles Davis introduced to jazz fans on his “Sketches of Spain” album. He followed that with one of his own ballad hits, which some of the avid Botti fans in the audience recognized after just a couple of notes.
Then Botti quickly switched gears, blowing brassy midrange riffs over an electric funk tune designed to showcase the group’s powerhouse drummer, Lee Pearson.
Botti the ballad specialist reprised a couple of jazz standards, “When I Fall In Love” and the moody “You Don’t Know What Love Is.” The group used the latter piece as a launching pad for an uptempo instrumental workout with Pearson, bassist Richie Goods, Botti and pianist Taylor Eigsti alternating high-flying solos at a breakneck pace.
Another instrumental virtuoso touring with the group is violinist Corline Campbell, who earned a standing ovation with a briskly played solo classical piece.
Botti’s traveling troupe also includes a couple of show-stopping vocal talents. One of them is dazzling R&B singer Sy Smith, who was part of “The Tonight Show” band during Jay Leno’s tenure. Smith raised the roof with a soaring version of “The Very Thought of You,” showing off her stunning vocal range, at times vocally resembling the singer Randy Crawford.
Then she and Botti traded stratospheric high notes on a rendition of “The Look of Love,” a tune featured on Botti’s Grammy-winning “live” DVD.
Several years ago Botti paid homage to his Italian roots with an album called “Italia,” co-writing the title track with the great operatic tenor Andrea Bocelli and performing it with him in Italy. Near the end of Friday night’s concert, Botti brought out a lesser-known but also impressive opera singer named Rafael Moras to reprise the dramatic piece.
Grammy Award winning artist and Shure endorser Chris Botti spent some time with us in Nashville to discuss his inspirations, why he likes audience interaction, and how the wireless Beta 98H/C is an important part of capturing the sound of his trumpet.
While fronting the Police, Sting crafted the jaunty “Man in a Suitcase” 36 years ago. As it turns out, a good friend of Sting’s, trumpet player Chris Botti, is living that life – and loving it.
The Grammy Award winner sold his luxurious Hollywood Hills home and almost all of his possessions two years ago and moved into a Manhattan hotel.
Botti, 53, who will perform tonight at the Sandler Center for the Performing Arts, just lives for the music. He’s on tour so often that he spends little time at his hotel, save one month a year when he does a residency at Manhattan’s Blue Note in December.
The charismatic entertainer’s last album is 2012’s “Impressions,” but he isn’t even thinking about his next release.
Botti said he is focusing on his show – part rock, part jazz and part classical.
There is plenty of material for him to select. Botti has nine albums to draw from and can play many different styles.
He certainly has made some key connections.
In 1990, Botti started a decadelong touring and recording relationship with Paul Simon.
In 1999, he began touring with Sting, who allowed him to solo during his shows.
Some folks in the music industry are less than complimentary when Sting’s name is dropped.
Botti and Sting live within blocks of each other in Manhattan and often hit the town together.

I am forever looking for nice jeans. Looks nice, feels nice, made well, and are comfy and flattering.
Is my only option the Hudson, Seven's, True Religion's and the like that are out there?
Aren't there some mid-range price jeans ($50-$100) that qualify under the above standards?
I've been to the Gap...and they have changed their styles from last year...I don't really care for their selection.
Tons of places like Marshalls, Ross, TJ Maxx carry those jeans for $30 - $60, you just have to look!
i get most of my jeans (sevens, tr, joes, hudsons, etc.) at sample sales for usually around $70 each.. try looking around your area for some! there are def alot in CA.
Karen Millen Jeans, to me are one of the most comfortable, However she is based in England nevertheless her line is available in department stores in the U.S.
I am a die-hard Paige Premium Denim fan; I would say that if they do for you what they do for me you will gladly lay down $160 for a pair.
Obviously, jeans fit everyone a little different; but, I have never had a jean fit like it was made for me until I tried on a pair of Paige.
I highly recommend to anyone that they try a pair of the Laurel Canyon style for themselves and then draw your own conclusions.
Paying good $ for jeans is worth it if you can wear them until they fall apart and they make your but look like it should be modeling victoria's secret lingerie.
The stores in my area get cleared out of the good stuff in record time....too many stay at home Moms with time on their hands I guess.
I will check there. thank you.
Well, yes, I agree! I guess I just didn't try on the right brands a couple weeks ago. I bought a pair of Juicy that were on sale ($110 down from $185, so I was pleased) that fit well, a pair of sevens, but the legs are cut a bit narrow....less than a boot cut and I like space down there, and pair of James jeans. I was at Sak's for literally 2 hours trying on a roomful of jeans.
I also picked up a pair of "it" jeans from the Brass Plum section of Nordstrom, they were $58 I think. I like them, and they fit well, I just wish they were an inch or two longer. They are regular and I need talls so I can wear heels with them.
There was a store at the mall that had every imaginable brand...and I believe they have Paige there. How do you wash them? Do they shrink at all?
Also check the Loehmanns in your area they get more of the high-end designers; and their prices are fabulous.
I have a question about jeans, I'm really tall, so I'm constantly on the search for jeans that have a long inseam, but are still super cute. I'm a size two so I like jeans that sit really low and flatter my figure. The problem i face all the time is ordering jeans online that are listed as 2-long... and they are NOT long. Victoria's Secret has long jeans, but they don't sit low. any suggestions?
The Laurel Canyon style (as do most of their styles) have a bit of stretch too; and they are long so perfect with heels. I just can't say enough about Paige - I would love to hear your take if you ever do try a pair on. One thing to keep in mind - I have had to try multiple pairs in the same size to find the ones that fit me the best; sometimes there is variance even in the same size.
You can check out their offerings on Neimans website to get a heads up; I have the fairfax with leather trim (love these), the Laurel canyon in every color wash avail, the gauchos, the deconstruction in dark and light washes, the Hollywood Hills in dark wash, and the nailhead in mdm wash. If they ever go public I will buy stock.
Paige Premium Denim; both Nordies and Neimans have good return policies.
laurel Canyon sits low on the waist; the deconstruction washes sit the lowest.
You could ask someone when they receive their shipments, usually it's about once a week.
I have to agree with you about Paige jeans. I started in September and have bought two pairs. They are wonderful and they fit great. Definetly my favorite brand so far! They wash great too.
i love paige too. perfect amount of stretch. try shopbop.com i usually wait until there is some sale on jeans and try to snag a pair. but yah those are def worth the money. in nyc we have century 21 which is sort of like a tjmaxx but a little better. they have designer jeans on sale as well.

Chris Weidman has reportedly pulled out of his UFC 199 middleweight championship bout with Luke Rockhold because of an undisclosed injury.
Fox Sports on Tuesday reported the former middleweight champion had withdrawn from the June 4 main event at The Forum in Inglewood.
Rockhold (15-2) dethroned Weidman (13-1) by TKO in December.
Whether the UFC comes up with a late replacement or scraps the middleweight title bout has yet to be determined.
The UFC 199 co-main event features bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz defending his title against longtime rival Urijah Faber.

This statistic shows the birth rate by the educational attainment of the child's mother in the United States in 2017. In 2017, 55 children were born per 1,000 women who held a Bachelor's degree and 64 children were born per 1,000 women with a graduate or professional degree.
The birth rate covers the number of births per 1,000 women.
Covers civilian noninstitutional population. Since the number of women who had a birth during the 12-month period was tabulated and not the actual numbers of births, some small underestimation of fertility for this period may exist due to the omission of: (1) Multiple births, (2) Two or more live births spaced within the 12-month period (the woman is counted only once), (3) Women who had births in the period and who did not survive to the survey date, (4) Women who were in institutions and therefore not in the survey universe. These losses may be somewhat offset by the inclusion in the Current Population Survey of births to immigrants who did not have their children born in the United States and births to nonresident women. These births would not have been recorded in the vital registration system.

Lots of folks avoid making artichokes for dinner because they’re time intensive little buggers.
There’s so much…preparation. And eating them isn’t the easiest thing in the world, either.
So while there’s a great pay-off at the end (the heart!) AND the eating process can be fun (hands! butter!), lots of folks avoid the overwhelming journey and just opt for potatoes.
As the owner of a very small business, you might feel like getting your marketing done is as overwhelming as eating an artichoke. It just takes so much…TIME.
There is, after all, actual work that you need to finish, or you won’t get paid. I get it. I’m in the same boat.
The important thing to remember though, is that every little bit helps. Baby steps are crucial. They move you forward and build good habits.
Habits that can ultimately bring you all the customers you’ll ever need. So next time you’re feeling overwhelmed, and you can’t figure out when to tackle your marketing, just stop. Breathe. And take a moment to think things through.
Schedule it. Make a weekly appointment with yourself and keep that time sacred.
Preempt that from happening by blocking out the time now. Go ahead and get your calendar. I’ll wait.
Okay – now take a look at your schedule. What makes the most sense for you? My recommendation is 1 to 2 hours every morning. Early. Before the phone starts ringing. That’s when my brain is fresh and I’m at my most creative. If an hour in the morning won’t work, then schedule it for the afternoon or evening. Or lump it all together into one day. But schedule it now.
Plan it out. Every successful business does the necessary planning.
And don’t forget it’s a continuous process. So don’t think that once you’ve created a plan, you’re done. Nope. Life happens and things change.
You’ve always got to look ahead and make adjustments. But plan!
So, figure out where you are now. Set some goals. And now, map it out. Create a marketing calendar so you know what you need to work on each week.
If you need help creating your marketing plan, there are lots of great resources out there. Google it. Or you can ask me. It’s what I do. We can look at your budget, and your goals and figure out your most cost-effective and efficient options.
Make it visible. This is especially important if you’re the type of person that works on “out of sight, out of mind” principles.
Get yourself the biggest white board you can find. Or better yet, go on down to your local home improvement store and buy some white board paint. (They have blackboard paint, too.) Paint an entire wall in your office and then plot out your plan three months at a time.
Refer back to that calendar you created. Use your favorite color markers. Make your own system. But make sure it’s up close and in your face. This is a sure-fire way to keep your marketing top-of-mind.
Organize your To Do list by time increments: things you can do in 5 minute increments, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. That way, you’ll know what you can expect to do on any given day. And if, by some miracle, a window should open up in your day (say 30 minutes), then you take that next 30-min task and get ‘er done!
Be accountable to someone. If you’re not already part of a mastermind group, find one or create your own.
And then share your goals with them. Knowing that you’ll have to report back to your peers on your progress is great motivation.
For tips on finding and building a mastermind, read Joe Vitale’s Meet and Grow Rich, or check your local MeetUp.com page.
Outsource it. You have your strengths, sure. But that doesn’t mean you’re superhuman.
You really can’t (and shouldn’t) do it all yourself. Figure out what it is you’re good at, what you actually like doing, and then hire someone else to do the rest. There are plenty of affordable options out there — both online and off. Pursue them. Ask your local community college for an intern, or visit elance.com for a virtual marketing assistant.
It’s important to remember that you have an hourly rate. And if you can pay someone else to get something done in half the time it would take you to do it, you’ve just saved yourself a bunch of money!
Does your marketing artichoke feel doable now? It should. And eating it should actually be kind of fun, now that you know how to make time for it.
Have other suggestions? Please add them in the comments at the end of this post and share!
Glad you liked it, MJ. If you decide to paint something, post a pic on FB!
where do you get he darling and fantastic images… they are a great addition to great writing.
Great tips, Tea! I really like the idea of organizing the To Do list by time increments. One thing I try to do is, get at least one task done before opening my email or face book. Sometimes it’s hard but when I do it, it feels good knowing I can cross that one task off my list!

At the very least you’ve summarized your progress on three pages with your logo on the bottom and dessert smudges on the cover. Or maybe that was me.
Either way, the reports you deliver during a consulting engagement inform and direct your client.
Are you taking the time to produce the internal reports that inform and direct the health of your consulting firm?
Whatever aspirations you harbor for your consulting firm, you need to know how you’re performing. That’s how you identify barriers and plan future progress.
The five reports below are mandatory to steer your consulting firm toward a better future, whether your firm has one or 101 consultants.
You’re recording your (team’s) successes, accomplishments and achievements.
Your upcoming delivery capacity requirements.
Predict your cash position over time, so that you can identify and avoid cash crunches.
Most of the consulting industry misuses the utilization metric. The percentage of hours spent on billable work is misleading and scrutinizing that statistic is counterproductive.
The overall capacity of your firm to create value for clients and profit for you.
If you’re using software to generate your P&L, that software will also spit out a balance sheet. Easy peasy. Whether or not you need it depends on the size of your firm and your long-term intent.
If you’re striving to build a salable asset, then you need to keep your balance sheet healthy. A firm laden in debt or without clear financial controls is a tougher sell.
Do you use reports to guide your consulting firm? I’d like to hear what you’re doing.
Totally agree, Dennis. When I was talking with my colleague Richard, who’s a consulting firm operations wizard, and he mentioned the standard reports he likes to see.
Let me know how you fare when you start regularly accessing these 5 reports for your own practice, Dennis.
I am very grateful for your advice every month.
Of course the sale if your book is one of your goals but when I met you here in Brunswick, ME a few years ago I could tell you sincerely want to help folks.
Most of us in this profession have learned that immense joy and satisfaction comes from helping others succeed. I bet that’s why you’re in the business of advising others, too!
Also, thank you for the very kind words, Evan. I’m equally grateful that you take the time to read and offer your thoughts as a comment.
Good stuff. And a quick indicator of awareness and ability. Next question is how quickly can you produce that info and how many people and systems are invovled to get that data?
I knew some smart consultant would point to that series of questions, and that smart consultant is you, Ray.

Kodi, formerly known as XBMC, is an open-source software all-in-one mega entertainment center which can be installed on Linux, Windows, iOS, Android, Raspberry Pi, and I’ll be showing you how to install Kodi on your Mac running OS X Yosemite, Mountain Lion, and Lion (10.6 and above). With this bad boy install on you Desktop, or laptop, you’ll be “in the car” and on your way to completely free TV, movies, and much more (YES I mean FREE TV which includes cable.) Kodi allows, or gives, the user the ability to play and view most videos, music, podcasts, and other digital media files from local, or network, storage media and the internet.
While installing Kodi on Mac OS X 10.8 or higher then you might get a message saying that XBMC/Kodi “can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer”. This is due to the OS X Gatekeeper feature that is designed to discourage users from downloading third party applications.
Step 5. OS X will give you a scary warning that is a bit exaggerated. If you’re not comfortable with this, use the “right click” method mentioned above.

There isn't any reason why commercials directing should have anything to do with race, but with so few black directors in the business - who comes readily to mind besides Paul Hunter? - the arrival of Chris Robinson, with a string of hip-hop video hits behind him, makes one wonder if he can escape the marketing ghetto politely filed under "urban." In his favor, surely, is the fact that he's at an A-list company like Partizan, where, as far as Robinson and Partizan executive producer Steve Dickstein are concerned, race will not be much of an issue. "Look at Tarsem," says Robinson. "He's an amazing director. I'm not sure what race he is. Who cares what race he is?" Adds Dickstein, "We never had directorial categories here, like automotive or tabletop. We just have directors. I look at Chris as a director who's black - not a black director. There's a depth to his work that transcends any genre. "
"It'll take time to be judged as just a filmmaker," admits the 31-year-old Robinson. "We're still dealing with that in our culture in America, learning to judge people by the merit of what they do. Make no mistake, before anything I'm Chris Robinson the black man. That's just a truth, and I'm very proud of that. But if you put the reel up, it should be, 'Hey, that's a good filmmaker,' or 'That's a funny filmmaker.' Not, 'That's a black filmmaker.' "
If you put the reel up, Robinson's work is impressive indeed. Nevertheless, he comes out of the largely segregated world of hip-hop video, and his first commercial, for And 1 and Fallon/Minneapolis, starring NBA wunderkind Kevin Garnett, is more or less a hip-hop video, with beats by none other than Timbaland. Which is partly why Robinson got the gig. He's the kind of guy who's on a first-letter basis with people like P. Diddy, and, as he puts it, "I could just pick up the phone and call Timbaland."
"It's true this whole And 1 thing came about because of a certain credibility Chris has with rappers and musicians, but the idea, which is bold in its expression, is told with an amazing sense of humanity and emotion," says Dickstein. As Robinson explains, "If you put classical music behind this commercial you'd still have a story about Kevin Garnett's psyche and his journey from being a kid in South Carolina who was in trouble with the police and whose mom burned his jersey 'cause she didn't want him to play basketball. It's a story about his life - but his life happens to have a hip-hop soundtrack to it."
As does Robinson's, of course. He grew up in Baltimore and later moved to California where he enrolled at Foothill Junior College and played nose guard on the football team. It was there that he "got bit by the film bug," he says. "I always wanted to have a camera in my hand." He started making small-time videos for friends and eventually got a break with Profile Records, then home to Run DMC, for a video for a rapper known as Smooth Da Hustler, around 1993. "When I came in, the groundwork really wasn't set for hip-hop videos," he recalls. "The guys that I looked up to were Mark Romanek, David Fincher and Jean-Baptiste Mondino. But my biggest influence at the time, just to be a filmmaker and believe that it could be done, was Spike Lee. He's a shining example that you could actually do it." Hip-hop video-wise, "after Hype Williams raised the bar, ever since it's been on," says Robinson. "This is what we aspire to, the mini movie. To those artists who want to be innovative, we can say, 'Come on, let's do it.' Everybody's pushing the envelope now. They want more."
And they're getting it. To those of us with only a casual hip-hop acquaintance, who tend to stereotype it as a tediously repetitive boast-and-bling thing, Robinson's videos are a pleasant surprise. He's got dialogue, humor and plenty of snappy narrative and great-looking film. Standouts on the reel include P. Diddy's "Bad Boy For Life," in which Sean Combs and his retinue move into a house in the white suburbs and scandalize the neighbors, only to be scandalized in turn by tattooed white skate punks. The Busta Rhymes/P. Diddy collaboration "Pass the Courvoisier" lives up to the mini-movie moniker with a perfectly controlled blend of humor, action and style. Cypress Hill's rap-metal "Trouble" is a brilliantly evocative tale of a man facing his many inner demons. Moreover, Robinson can jump genres with ease, well beyond the R&B clips he's done for Alicia Keys, Ginuwine and others. He not only shot the recent Dave Navarro "Hungry (Empty Girl)," with Carmen Electra as a robot, but, as unlikely as it may seem, he did Mandy Moore's teen-fluff hit "Candy." "I got a little diversity happening," he laughs.
May it keep on happening. "We're looking at work for him right now that's outside the urban market, because people are recognizing him as a talent, not as a black talent," claims Dickstein. Robinson himself is cautiously optimistic. "When you can really be judged just on the content of your character, it'll be a different world we live in. But the world is changing for the better, slowly but surely. Everything else follows suit."

The clock measuring the one year allowed for the treasure trove search at Victorio Peak will begin ticking on May 15.
That is one of the first things spelled out in the Army´s licensing agreement which was signed April 4 by Terry Delonas and Brig. Gen. Ronald Hite. Delonas signed for the Ova Noss Family Partnership and Hite, as commanding general of WSMR, signed for the Department of Army.
In addition to the timeframe, the 16-page document limits the search area to a one mile radius of Victorio Peak, says the exploration will be without cost to the Government and the work will not interfere with other missile range activities. There also are paragraphs and subparagraphs outlining a variety of requirements ranging from a $200,000 deposit to lists of treasure locations and on-site participants.
The agreement goes to some length to make a distinction between what constitutes treasure versus artifacts. Paragraph 12 states, "All archeological resources, antiquities, or items of historical or cultural interest....whenever located on WSMR shall remain the property of the Government."
After this statement there is a long laundry list of what might be considered an artifact. It includes such common items as mortars, baskets, pottery, rock carvings, arrow heads and jewelry. The list was obviously lifted from a generic license because it includes, "all portions of shipwrecks." It seems unlikely a shipwreck will be found within Victorio Peak.
Now for the interesting part. The paragraph goes on to define "treasure" as "coins, gold or silver bullion, precious metals (not including metals with radioactive value), precious cut and uncut gems (not including jewelry or gems set in valuable ornaments), unset and loose jewels, and related valuables."
So, what happens if anything is found? The agreement says the partnership will cease operations immediately. Together, representatives of WSMR and the partnership will make a written and photographic inventory. The two parties will then categorize items as artifacts or treasure or neither with WSMR having the final determination in the matter.
Artifacts will then be dealt with by WSMR according to federal law. Treasure will be removed by the partnership under the direction of WSMR personnel.
At the signing Delonas said they were checking on vault storage with several banks in the area just in case something is discovered.
After removing the treasure, if any is found, the Department of Army will take custody of it. Following another inventory, the Army will, through the Department of Justice, go to the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico and request a determination as to the ownership of the treasure. Any subsequent court proceedings will certainly be fodder for the "entertainment-news" programs.
Another interesting requirement of the license is that "neither the Licensee nor any individual or company shall sell participation interests in the project contemplated by this license or in any manner utilize this license to promote the sale of stock or other securities or effect the financing of such project without first disclosing such transaction(s) to the Secretary of the Army." This portion of the license is intended to prevent anyone from implying that the Army endorses or backs the search.
To control the site and prevent any possible misrepresentation or fraud, all representatives of the partnership must consent "to a thorough search of their persons, vehicles, equipment, and any other personal property by Government security personnel." This includes a search prior to entry to the area or entry into any cavern or tunnel and a search on returning or emerging.
After the signing, Delonas said he could not say when the first activity would start. He did confirm that their first efforts will be directed at drilling small holes into the peak and then lowering cameras down the shafts.
He said they have developed a very sophisticated camera apparatus which contains video and still cameras and lights. They will be able to lower one device and control it from the surface to obtain live television video and 35-millimeter still photos.
He indicated this will probably take a few weeks and they will then withdraw to digest the data they collect. What they find will dictate how they will finally approach the peak for a full blown attempt to gain entry to any particular cavern.
In talking with Delonas after the signing he revealed he has a sense of humor---really a bit of black humor. He said he was happy the end of the search was finally in sight because all of his efforts during the past years had basically ruined his life.
Laughingly, he went on to say one of their financial backers was connected with the movie industry. This backer told Delonas the story would make a better movie if nothing was found. The movie could then portray a man who had wasted his life on nothing. It would be a tragedy and, after all, most of the greatest stories ever written were tragedies.

Cold but sunny early on and okay for a ride around the wharf. The picture is of swans below the Red Bridge at the end of Banana Walk. There was ice about early so take care on two wheels, particularly the geriatrics!
Was at an 18th birthday bash at Heywood yesterday and, during travelling, the top bits of a wind-turbine, above the otherwise rustic rolling hills and trees, could be seen starkly white against the sunny blue sky. There is a wind-farm in the area but just one turbine was visible. Which. really, in such countryside, is one too many. So today, the news that planners have turned-down applications for a similar, possibly larger, wind-farm at Hawarth (Bronte Country not far away) is good news indeed. From the canal tow-paths at Radcliffe the Heywood wind-farm is easily seen stretching across the distant hills. It looks silly and is, by default, grossly inefficient. Meanwhile, a small, unobtrusive, Archimedes Screw, set by a weir on the River Irwell locally, uses the far more efficient power of gravity and water to generate regardless of wind action.

Freezing but sunny this morning by the canal. Elton Reservoir was half-frozen; the moored boats still out. There were quite a few cyclists out in the sun too, some of them on new bikes and riding (as yet) a little ‘carefully’ perhaps. I even saw, on the main road, a tandem. These are popular but, around here, they are unusual.

It was actually warm today – with sunshine! – the roads, around Bury, jam-packed with shopper’s cars (?) So a bumper day for parking fees eh?
Rather than bike-riding a rellie needed a lift with some furniture and so that was today’s ‘keep-fit’ activity. Tomorrow may be sunny too so a good day for the bike may be on the cards.

A little warmer and very quiet along Radcliffe Canal this morning. Two pairs of swans were passed and from the scaffolded bridge a ride to Elton Reservoir done.
Boats were at anchor, (I think that’s the nautical term) at the Bury end, so there might be sailing there tomorrow. From the reservoir embankment, which was quite puddle-strewn this morning, the track behind the boat-club was ridden to the ‘gates’, at Cycle Route 6, and from there up the slopes to Bury and Bolton Road and then Grindsbrook for a downhill dash home.
Myriad sea-birds at the Bury end of Elton Reservoir.
Weather-wise a far better ride today than of late so get the bikes oiled and ready!

Quite a bit warmer this morning and the snow has, in the main, gone. It was dull and damp though around the wharf and the town hall but, if you stay-in while it’s wet in Radcliffe you’ll never go out! It seemed to be growing darker and darker this morning and so, fearing a rain-deluge, a short ride along Banana Walk to the wharf and Cross Lane was chanced. The roads are wet but ice-free.
They’re still on about horse-meat in the daily blogs, but, here’s a thought: just see how much ‘Real, Guaranteed-Beef-Burgers/Lasagne/Mince’ cost now that the cheap ones have been ‘exposed’.

Snow this morning and, at just gone twelve noon, it’s still snowing. But a ride along the lanes and canal was done okay earlier. (Mornin’ Ron & Trev!) It was awesome at Withins Reservoir and then at Elton Reservoir, the snow falling heavily while there.
From the reservoirs to the canal and a ride back via the Red Bridge and Banana Walk. It was ok on the bike but best go slowly and watch for ice. There are a few more photo’s, taken this morning, on the February 2013 Page.

No snow this morning but, for photographs, it was a bit dull and being dive-bombed by sea-gulls was awesome! A dry run then down to the canal then along to (almost) Bury and back via Bury & Bolton Road and Grindsbrooke. Without the jungles of Himalayan Balsam plants it was easier to get a couple of photographs of Hinds Lane, for oopart, and one or two of the swans, above, which were between bridges this morning.
At most other ‘news’ ‘sites they’re on about horses/horsemeat, so swans and gulls is a bit different at least – there were, too, a few squirrels along Hinds Lane…mmm tasty snacks perhaps? And, once again, foxes aren’t exactly flavour of the month – so perhaps, as meat-balls, they might be.

A cold ride this morning but pedalling soon warms you up. We expected snow but just got rain and cold – well, it is (Greater) Manchester!
Apparently those govern-mental are thinking about (what with? ) charging more ‘road tax’ if you use the ‘bigger’ roads such as motorways. There are, locally, a couple of handy little cars for sale but by the time you’ve got them ‘on the road’ you’ll have shelled-out a fortune in insurances and taxation. So I’ll stick to two wheels and Cycle Lanes for the time being. I walked past expensive examples of the car-makers art this morning, queue’d-up, they were, by the town hall.

Just rain this morning and, it’s a bit busy here. The picture was taken a few days ago at the Radcliffe canal breach site near Little Lever. Without the summery greenery it’s easier to see the stones and steel beams (railway lines?) used to support the canal side along the hillside.
More pictures of the whole MBB Canal from Bury to Little Lever are at oopart – The Radcliffe Canal page.

Overcast this morning but okay for a ride to Radcliffe and then along to the ‘Advert Bridge’. Umpteen Canada Geese were very noisy – must be territory-time.
Apparently, during the past week, the pm secured, at the eu, a general reduction in the eu budget. Sadly, for the UK, this means that we’ll actually have to pay more in. Doh!
At Durham they’re trying to build a new Police HQ but Great Crested Newts have been found on the site – which is a local ‘green’ spot – so building has been halted until May 2013 at the earliest.

It's been one of the most talked about buildings in Wincanton, for all the wrong reasons.
For many years the derelict house on the Wincanton Gateway retail park has been sticking out like a sore thumb greeting visitors to the town, who must pass it to either access the town centre or stay at the Travelodge hotel.
But now Wincanton residents have cause for celebration - because the house is no more.
Employees at Hopkins Developments - which owns the site - have been on site over the last few days with heavy machinery tearing down the house, which lies next to The Wagtail pub.
Once the house has been completely razed to the ground and the surrounding area cleared up, the vacant area can be take up by another business.
Nick Colbert, who represents Wincanton on South Somerset District Council, has welcomed this move.
He said: "I am very pleased to see another eyesore in the town being removed. Bit by bit the town is improving its image.
"The derelict site off Station Road now has the new extension to our primary school on it. The derelict former shop in Silver Street has been demolished and is well on the way to being tidied up.
"The derelict area of land behind the old Colbert Smith office was a no man's land, but following legal clarification as to ownership I was able to get that tidied up.
"This burnt-out house has been a topic of conversation for years, so I am overjoyed to see it is being demolished.
"Slowly but surely, piece by piece, the eyesores are going and Wincanton is looking better. The public can help the image of the town themselves by not littering - it is thoughtless and there is no excuse for it."
Lawrence Hill - on which the Gateway site is located - remains a flurry of activity besides the demolition work, with the new Hopkins Concrete plant rapidly taking shape there.
Domino's Pizza confirmed in September that it would be building a new takeaway outlet on the retail park, which will set next to the existing KFC.

A number of scientific studies have linked pre-menstrual tension – PMT (also called Pre-menstrual Syndrome) – with magnesium deficiency in the woman’s body.
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is experienced as a group of physical and emotional symptoms which some women experience 1-2 weeks before their menstrual period. Normally, these symptoms subside when the period starts and within a couple of days of menstrual flow. Statistics indicate that PMS affects over 80% of women of the reproductive age at some point in their lives, and about 40% of women experience symptoms bad enough to affect their daily life.
The symptoms may include, but are not limited to, cramps, dizziness, tender breasts, water retention & swelling of the body, abdominal bloating, food cravings, especially for chocolate, nausea, vomiting, stomach upsets, appetite changes, insomnia, general discomfort, anger, irritability, crying seemingly for no reason, aches and pains all over the body, fatigue, lowered immunity, and a number of other symptoms.
The complexities of the reproductive cycle mean that the body mobilises itself for possible fertilisation and pregnancy. This preparation leads to a number of hormones being produced in large quantities, and released into the body, leading to physiological and psychological changes in all the body systems. Magnesium plays a very important role not only in the production of hormones but as an integral part of ATP – the energy molecule of every cell.
Premenstrual activity in the woman’s body requires a lot of magnesium. If it is in short supply, then certain processes are slowed down, and general physical and psychological tension, fatigue, cramps, aches, pain, lack of energy follow as just some of the numerous symptoms of what we call Premenstrual Tension.
The studies mentioned above were using oral magnesium supplementation to draw positive conclusions about the role of magnesium in reducing the symptoms of PMS. However, oral magnesium supplementation has its limitations. Not everyone can absorb it via the digestive tract, and even those who can absorb only a relatively small percentage of what has been ingested. Much of oral magnesium passes through the body unabsorbed. The chances increase when chelated magnesium is taken instead of cheaper forms of it. Magnesium citrate, magnesium orotate are some of the chelated forms of good quality magnesium supplement. They will also be milder on the stomach since unlike magnesium oxide, they do not take hydrochloric acid out of the body, so do not upset digestion.
To increase magnesium absorption into the body, I suggest using magnesium chloride transdermally – in the form of magnesium oil to spray the body daily, or to massage it directly into the skin. The oil can be strong and irritating for some, being a concentrated salt solution, so can be mixed with water as desired, to soften its action. You will still get sufficient magnesium from it to benefit from transdermal supplementation.
Another way is to soak in magnesium baths, preferably daily, using either magnesium chloride flake or Epsom salt. Although Epsom salt is cheaper to buy, magnesium chloride is a better option, since it has a simpler molecular structure, and gets straight to where it is needed. Dr Mark Sircus recommends magnesium sulphate for transdermal magnesium supplementation in most cases, except for some specific conditions. You would need between 500g-1kg of magnesium chloride per bath.
Various research results have shown that transdermal supplementation replenishes magnesium in the body much faster than oral supplementation. Of course, intravenous injections would be even faster, but for a majority of people, they are not necessary. I suggest using magnesium transdermally on a daily basis for 2 weeks at the start of the treatment, and once every 2-3 days afterwards, or as required.
Other natural remedies include vitamin B complex, Vitex Agnus Castus (Chaste Berry) – to regulate hormones, Evening primrose oil, and calcium. Exercise, sufficient sleep and healthy nutrition are also advised.
