Jay Baruchel is a Canadian actor and screenwriter. He played Josh Greenberg in the FXX comedy television series Man Seeking Woman and played the lead character in Judd Apatow's comedy series, Undeclared. He is known for his voice role as Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III in the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, and for his roles in comedy movies such as Knocked Up, Tropic Thunder, She's Out of My League, This Is the End. He talks about the stresses of life that Hiccup deals with in How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World and where he hopes to see Hiccup go in the future.
Screen Rant: Hiccup has grown a lot over the course of the series. In this movie he is forced to reconcile the ideal world that he envisioned as a kid with the realities of growing up as an adult leader. In what ways has that affected him in this newest installment?
Jay Baruchel: It’s everything that he's dealing with, you know, it's a different side of the existential crisis that he was kind of going through in the beginning. In the first film he is sort of born into the margins and at odds with the culture that he grows up in. And there's like a sort of that form of a existential crisis where he's trying to see where he fits in, does he have anything to contribute and who is he supposed to be and how much of his dad should he be. In this one it's the other side of it because it's like he's got everything he's fought for and fought to preserve, this paradise where we can all coexist might not be good for us or for them. And well, that's heavy cause that's been like his great defining ambition and philosophies that we should all just be able to live together. And now that's tested and he has to ask himself if that's actually the case. And to me that coupled with him now in charge and struggling with all of that because it's very easy to be the sort of opposition. It's easy to complain about things when you're the one that actually has to create and run stuff. That's a whole other kettle of fish. And I think by the end of it, he really becomes the man he was always meant to be. Right. And I think that this movie ends the way that it should this saga could have no other ending. And the one that we have in this film. And yet it's still hard to see coming.
Screen Rant: It's so touching. You played the role for years and now you finally get to see the conclusion. How satisfying is it for you to actually see this through?
Jay Baruchel: Oh man. Immensely. It's like I have felt so fortunate because like, I really feel like I do such a small, I own such a small piece of this film of these movies, of any of these movies because all I do is talk into a microphone and then three years go by and I'm rewarded with I get to tell the world that I'm part of this thing. I almost feel like I'm running a racket, but it's like really, really special and it's special because I always knew it was good. I know these movies were good and I have no anticipation that they would become a global movement over the course of over a decade. At the same time I always thought they deserve too. So I am very happy to be here at this pool, you know, at this point with this movie. But also that we were able to make this specific ending, you know, because I think our characters and our fans deserve something special. And I think this is the one.
Screen Rant: After, during the second one, did you know that this was going to be the ending?
Jay Baruchel: I'll go one further. I knew that there would be a version of this ending before when we started doing the first one. Because it's kind of been hiding in plain sight because the very first line, the way the movie opens. And you know, whether people notice that or not is a different thing, but I always knew the implication is that they go away and they separated at a certain point. So I always knew the ending would be kind of quasi sad white Fang neighborhood. I knew this was coming, but I didn't know exactly how we'd get there.
Screen Rant: It's funny you say that because I was talking to Dean earlier and I completely forgot that until he mentioned that. I was like, oh yeah, this was like all along. Hiccup doesn't really get to experience the hidden world. Do you think it lives up to his expectations?
Jay Baruchel: Oh, Jesus Christ. Yeah. Does it ever. I think it definitely because he sees the real paradise, you know. He's hell bent on creating it on Berk or what he thinks it's supposed to be. And then when he sees the hidden world and how they actually have a home and how they all make sense together there. I think that's what convinces him that they're better off there.
Screen Rant: You've lived with Hiccup in film, TV, video games for nearly a decade. Are there any plans to revisit Hiccup in any auxiliary medium or are you finished playing the character?
Jay Baruchel: Oh, Jesus, I think I'm finished. It's a hard thing to say because I would, you know, who knows. And it all comes down to if I'm supposed to keep playing them, I think I will. But I don't know that I am, and I think it starts with Dean and I would be really hesitant to do anything that would run the risk of diminishing showing three films.
Screen Rant: What are some of your favorite Hiccup moments from the franchise?
Jay Baruchel: Oh the first time we see him in number two and he's got the suits that really cool suit on is pretty dope. Him sacrificing himself in this one is pretty special. It's heavy duty. And of course him flying alongside Toothless is absolutely, that's one of those special, that's the reason you go to the movie theater. But I'd be hard pressed to do better than like that first time that I get him to touch my hand in the first time. That's like, that's pretty good stuff.
Screen Rant: How do you feel about participating in a live action adaptation if given the chance?
Jay Baruchel: Oh, Jesus Christ. Yeah. I mean, wow. Again, like it depends on so many different things. I don't know that if that ever happened, I don't know that the people in the world would want me to play it. I know as a fan I would love to see a live action version. That would be cool.
Screen Rant: How would you like Hiccup and the Dragon franchise to be remembered in cinematic history?
Jay Baruchel: Oh Geez. I could talk about the sort of technological achievements and all this contributions, which are like, these movies have advanced the medium of cinema measurably. We've always been at the cutting edge and, you know, to me our flick the first one smoked Avatar and so I think that stuff's all cool, but I really like to think that people will remember quite fondly this thing that maybe never. These films are kind of a little engine that could, you know, because I there weren't a lot of people who were assuming the a movie about an awkward kid that trains the dragon was going to connect the way that it did. So I would like to and that we wore our heart on our sleeve the whole time. We were always hopeful. These are very hopeful movies but also very realistic. It's emotionally realistic because these movies have always been truthful about the cost of things.
Screen Rant: It does this great job of making it. It's not just the kids. Everybody can relate to it and it doesn't shy away from the loss of love as well.
Jay Baruchel: That's exactly it. And to love is to lose. And to grow up and to change and all these things that are like important truths that are also, I think maybe potentially complicated and difficult. And in the interest of cleanliness, people would probably just avoid them, but we never did it.
Screen Rant: Very true. So back to the movie, how has Hiccup handle responsibility being chief of Berk and the time between films?
Jay Baruchel: As well as he could, but I think it's also stressed out of here. I think that he sees, that other guy how heavy is the head that wears the crown, right? So I think he's like, yeah, he's very, very short on sleep when this movie starts.
Screen Rant: He looks badass when you first see him. Talk to me about the dynamic between you and Toothless and what's going on in Hiccups head as he realizes he's eventually gonna have to let him go.
Jay Baruchel: Yeah. It's a hard thing for him because he connects with Toothless in a way that he hasn't been able to connect to any person. And he was raised to believe that he was an oddball. And then everything that made him different than the rest of his culture, and that these were failings. He realizes through his friendship with Toothless these are actually virtues. But then he realizes that the best thing for Toothless might not be sticking by him. And that's a harsh, heartbreaking thing that I suspect every parent has to come to that conclusion at some point.

After our latest titanosaur entry and a week off, here's... another sauropod. This one's different though: it comes from early on in the history of sauropods, and shines a light on the early diversification of the group. I introduce Lingwulong shenqi, debuting as the world's oldest known dicraeosaurid at somewhere around 175 million years old, and the first substantiated dicraeosaurid from Asia. These "oldests" and "firsts" are more important than they might sound.
Aeolosaurus is one of those dinosaurs that is referenced fairly often in the literature, but has not left a strong impression with non-specialists, kind of like a character actor who's appeared in dozens of movies and TV shows over the years. The name rings a bell, but it's hard to recall much detail. It's easily the least familiar dinosaur to have both a namesake clade (Aeolosauridae/Aeolosaurinae/Aeolosaurini, depending on your taste, with the last being the most commonly used) and three valid species. It's not Aeolosaurus's fault, after all, unless you want to blame it for its habit of bequeathing only bits of tails to posterity. If you saw one amble by, you would definitely remember it.
Caudals from several aeolosaurinids (A–E) and other titanosaurs, from Martinelli et al. (2011), showing how the neural arch and its processes are shifted to the anterior end of the centrum. It also shows the procoelous nature of titanosaurian caudals, a style of ball-and-socket articulation with the socket in front and ball in back. In Aeolosaurus this is not a perfect ball, but skewed dorsally. Anterior is left and posterior is right, in case you need the orientation. "MPMA\without number" is actually part of the holotype of Aeolosaurus maximus, so all three named species are supposedly included, but the specimen labeled here as "MPMA\without number" actually appears to be CPP 248 (supposedly C) per an earlier figure in the publication. Could C and D be mixed up?
Fun with nautiloids: an essay in futility?
Or: "What good is a seven-foot nautiloid?"
In most reconstructions of marine Paleozoic life, large orthoconic (straight-shelled nautiloids) get two jobs: they are either large menacing objects in the water, usually seizing some unfortunate trilobite; or they are parked on the seafloor, again often engaged with a trilobite. The general takeaway is that a giant nautiloid was a voracious predator. Trilobites presumably are selected as the prey because so few other animals that lived during the heyday of the giant nautiloids both moved under their own power and were bigger than a few inches, making them about the only group worthy of the honor of artistic predation (although we can guess that a not-insignificant part of a giant predatory nautiloid's diet would be smaller nautiloids). Another, less scientific reason for having a nautiloid capture a trilobite is that otherwise Paleozoic marine reconstructions would be a whole lot of small filter-feeding animals not going anywhere, which doesn't make for dramatic art.
Nautiloids and trilobites: natural enemies forever locked in combat. Also pictured: many snails.
Last year for Fourth of July week I put up a post on dinosaurs of the National Park Service. With the same time of year upon us, I thought I'd try something similar. Now, we haven't had all that much change in NPS dinosaurs over the past year, but there's something else that's even more appropriate: bison. Cue the map!
For this map, parks with paleontological materials of bison are indicated, with two questionable occurrences (18 and 32) represented by gray question marks. See text for caveats. 1. Lava Beds National Monument; 2. Golden Gate National Recreation Area; Santa Monica Mountains NRA; Joshua Tree National Park; 5. Nez Perce National Historical Park; 6. Craters of the Moon National Monument & Preserve; 7. Yellowstone NP; 8. Fossil Butte NP; 9. Timpanogos Cave NM; 10. Arches NP; 11. Glen Canyon NRA; 12. Zion NP; 13. Tule Springs Fossil Beds NM; 14. Lake Mead NRA; 15. Grand Canyon NP; 16. Great Sand Dunes NP & Preserve; 17. Chaco Culture NHP; 18. Gila Cliff Dwellings NM; 19. White Sands NM; 20. Bering Land Bridge National Preserve; 21. Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve; 22. Denali NP & Preserve; 23. Theodore Roosevelt NP; 24. Wind Cave NP; 25. Badlands NP; 26. Missouri National Recreational River; 27. Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve; 28. Lake Meredith NRA and possibly Alibates Flint Quarries NM; 29. Waco Mammoth NM; 30. Padre Island National Seashore; 31. Ice Age National Scientific Reserve (affiliated); 32. Valley Forge NHP.
For bison, I'm not quite as confident with my records as I am for, say, mammoths or sloths or dinosaurs. In large part this is because bison are relative latecomers to North America and their record goes to the present. If you've got a random mammoth bone, nobody's going to blink an eye if you call it "Pleistocene", but a random bison bone is not so indicative. There are probably isolated occurrences of fossil material that I don't know about because they've been classified as recent or not classified at all. In addition, some researchers are strict about not considering specimens paleontological if they are more recent than a certain age, whereas I am not so strict about the Holocene. (Of course, then you get into the overlap with archeology.) Therefore, the list I have is subject to change. At this time, perhaps the most notable occurrence from these 32 parks is an early Holocene bison bonebed found in the Wisconsin side of Interstate State Park, one of the units of affiliated Ice Age National Scientific Reserve (I plan to cover it in more detail at another time). Otherwise, the record of NPS fossil bison is mostly isolated, incomplete material, with some bison dung in cave settings.
Distribution is dominated by parks west of the Mississippi, particularly those larger than a few hundred acres. There are some not currently listed, such as Big Bend NP, Death Valley NP, and Glacier NP, that would not surprise me if they eventually are added. East of the Mississippi we don't have as many large parks, and there's a definite tendency for large mammal records to come from caves, so I would expect to add some of the parks with caves over time.
Or maybe I should look at some of the coastal parks. From O. P. Hay's 1923 catalog of eastern North American Pleistocene finds (extant B. bison gets the next map in the volume).
One of the things you will encounter with the genus Bison in North America is the usual complicated taxonomy. The exact timing of the arrival of Bison in North America is not certain, but bison were established by at least 160,000 years ago. Bison arrived as Bison priscus, the widespread Steppe bison, which was not unlike the modern bison. B. priscus evolved into B. latifrons, which can be distinguished by its large size and enormous horns, and B. antiquus, which was not quite so large nor extravagantly equipped with horns.
For B. latifrons, there was never such a thing as having too much horn. Cincinnati Museum of Natural History & Science mount, photo by James St. John via Wikimedia Commons.
B. latifrons went out of the picture during the most recent Ice Age (a unique sense of timing compared to all of the species that went extinct right after), but B. antiquus was still there to carry the bison banner. B. antiquus in turn evolved into the yet smaller B. bison in the early Holocene, about 10,000 years ago. The transitional phase is sometimes described as another species (or subspecies), B. occidentalis. We ran into B. occidentalis way back in early 2014 on I-35E, and this is also the form that has been identified at the Interstate State Park bonebed.
A regularly updated, searchable, and sortable directory of basic information on published species of nonavian dinosaurs, pterosaurs, choristoderes, placodonts, basal sauropterygians, and plesiosaurs (separate sheets). Other groups to be added over time.
I am a researcher and writer who has been helping to inventory and catalog the fossil resources of the National Park Service.

Welcome into the kitchen, we’ve made it to the end of the week and a glass of wine has been poured. The menu for tea is a quick pull it together for the boys and I. The boss is out with a friend and a very rare occasion for a Friday night! Rice and a tub from freezer containing left over frozen lentils and lamb curry, served with broccoli and a spoon of mango chutney before some boys tv.
I got the boys to bed an hour ago and I’ve been shamelessly procrastinating, clicking and looking through Pintrest…man that can zap time! And the irony of it is that I’ve been clicking through organising oneself…..until I got a hold of myself and went to play the piano for 10 mins. We have the easy play version of La La land….the pieces are very evocative of the film and a joy to play. I take it slow and remarkably they sound ok.
My blog has been calling me despite the fact when I sit down to write it’s a struggle….and finally starting to type and explain how the evening has gone is a help. Spending time on something un-interrupted is a luxury and so sitting here with my mind to roam free is taking all my will power to concentrate!
The clocks changed last Sunday and my plans to revolutionise my weekly habit were going to kick in…easily bounding out of bed at 6, fresh and ready to take the world on…..it didn’t happen! It happens to be pitch black at that time (obviously) and the last thing my brain wants to do is wake up! Add to the that there’s definitely been a dip in the temperature, the sporting gazelle did not appear and I just wanted to pull the duvet over my head when the wakeup call went.
The new Honey & Co Foodtalks Podcast appeared in my stream today. This edition held with Ed Smith creator of the Blog Rocket and Squash (another recent discovery) has been blogging for 7 years or so. He talks through how he came to blogging and how food became his calling rather than being a lawyer. For a guy in IT with a passion for cooking well, this really struck a chord.

Thanks for the nod. I envy you your want to try new culinary creations. I’m a lazy cook. 🙂 Our missing hour just returned this weekend, so I’ll notice it when leaving work Monday at 5 p.m. and it’s getting dark. And one can lose much time on Pinterest.. I so get that!
Music got me through this week, too. Pandora.com recently introduced me to Arcade Fire. I like!
Hope to see you again next week! Have a creative, gratitude-filled week!
Cooking is my chance to be creative at the same time as helping at home. I can sometimes getaway with closing the door whilst I prep something. So I get a little peace as well. Thanks for saying hello and hosting again.
It is easy to lose a lot of time on Pinterest. I like Arcade Fire, too! Have a great week.
Scared to go back there!

Let me be clear: I’ve been friends with Caitlin Ng for more than a decade, and I’ve had a crush on her for just as long. And I’ve known, all that time, that I wasn’t her type.
I’m wearing an inflatable T-Rex costume and dancing along to Christmas carols sung by an elderly barbershop quartet.
Yes, I’m being paid to do this.
And that’s how Caitlin finds me when she leaves work late in the middle of a snowstorm. She asks to stay with me because her house is farther away and her power is out. Of course, I say yes.
When the heat goes out in my apartment and she asks me to join her in bed to snuggle for warmth, I say yes, too.
But being so close to her is dangerous for my heart…or could a weekend of Christmas fun actually lead to the romance I desire?

Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine, and the Murder of a President by Candice Millard chronicles the fascinating life of James A. Garfield. Goodreads summarizes, “ James A. Garfield was one of the most extraordinary men ever elected president.
In addition, Destiny of the Republic is filled with wonderful illustrative material for sermons, as is most other good works of history. Garfield’s affair shows us the danger of breaking our marital vows.

Retention Partners Blog: No promotion affecting your employee retention?
No promotion affecting your employee retention?
So, sometimes we’re responsible for looking at clients’ resignation histories to find out what’s really going on with employee retention. Are there certain times of the year that encourage people to quit? Are there certain employees groups who leave more than others?
One thing that we see in many organisations is the loss of staff at around the 3 year tenure level. This group is really valuable to most organisations because the employee is now skilled and experienced and giving great value to the business. However, it’s also the time in a role where competence is mastered and ambitious people are looking for the next challenge.
This can be tricky to solve because the traditional path to more challenge is to take the boss’s job. But now there are flatter structures and too many people trying for too few roles. Sometimes it’s just easier to get a higher job in another organisation.
Do you notice people quitting (EXITS) because they think there’s nowhere else to go internally? What have you put in place to secure them for another year or so?

Covering a yawn with her hand, Despina sighs. "I sure wish my guide'd show up. I'm really ready to hit the hay. I don't suppose you could give me directions to the reservation?"
"Oh, I could get you to Stone Circles, the biggest of the native villages, okay, or even Mound, which is a bit trickier, but that wouldn't solve your problem.” The sheriff lifts, then lowers his cap, smoothing his hair in between. “There's no motel or hotel out there, no boarding house, and I can't imagine you living with any of the Indian families I know."
She feels tears welling up in her eyes. Hoping that the poor light hides them from the sheriff, she continues, "Do you know this Juan Quantico, the man who said he would meet me?"
Gruffly, the sheriff admits, "Yes. But he never comes to town."
"So you said earlier." I wonder if I've unwittingly caused a skirmish in the local version of Cowboys and Indians? "Could that Tomás fellow Tex ran off possibly be the one I'm supposed to meet?"
Still sounding angry, the sheriff stiffens, then says, "Possibly, but not very likely. There's still a vacancy next door at The Blissful Rest."
"That doesn't do me any good." She hesitates.
It's the obvious strings that seem to be attached to that offer. Besides, if I admit to a lawman I don't HAVE the money for an overnight, I'm likely to become suspect #1 for every robbery or break-in in a five county area.
"I promised to live on the reservation." Her words sound hollow and false even to herself.
A pretty thin excuse. I haven't started yet. As far as I know, I haven't even set foot on the reservation, and from all the help I'm getting here, I'm not likely to tonight.
As if he can read her mind, he adds enticingly, "Rooms let for only $8.00 per night. They're pretty primitive -- no water, minimal heat."
Raising, then lowering her eyes dramatically, Despina reaches for one last sip of water. "Oh, I'm sure they're plenty warm enough for tonight."
With a patient smile, he, too, takes a sip. "The desert gets cold at night."
"I've read all about diurnal ranges, I assure you." Her hand barely hides a yawn. "If he doesn't put in an appearance pretty soon, I'll just have to sleep in the back of my truck."

Many Beaverbrook residents are concerned after discovering Hydro One has marked trees on their properties. A number of homeowners discovered orange spraypaint on their trees last month. Neighbours, concerned about what the markings could mean, sent a flurry of emails back and forth.
The utility recently cleared its easement just up the road in Morgan’s Grant. It removed trees, hedges and shrubs, as well as invasive species like wild parsnip, and planted a pollinator seed mix to create a more meadow-like environment in the stretch of land that runs between homes.
Residents in Beaverbrook are worried the same could happen, but right in their backyards.
It includes work at the Richcraft Recreation Centre on Innovation Drive.
“Every single tree and shrub is going to be taken out there,” said Wilkinson. “They’re even making the city move 40 or 50 trees planted in front of the Richcraft centre, approved by hydro at the time three or four years ago.
More than 30 people attended the meeting on July 18, including tech entrepreneur Terry Matthews.
Residents need to “work together to stop Hydro One from stripping the vegetation in Kanata under the full corridor width; to interact with Hydro One immediately and ask for mutual respect in the work to be undertaken early next year to achieve safety and continued tree-trimming practices as previously undertaken over the last 50 years,” said Matthews.

The Presbyterians are a Protestant church organisation . The congregation became Unitarians before 1835 and the Chapel closed in c. 1860. The Chapel became a school in the 1870's for infants up to 6 years old. Average attendance reached 84. The school closed in 1895 when the infants school was built in King Street. Since then the building has had numerous uses. In 1922, permission was given for use as a cinema, dance studio, meeting room for the 'Young Men's Christian Association', Church Lad's Brigade and Women's Institute, all at different times. The Temperance Society and Duffield Chess Club have all used it too. In 1964, it became the premises for Abbeydale China Company, up until the 1970s. Until 1988, it was used as an engineering workshop. It then stood unused until it was demolished. The library is situated next door. This is taken with the library behind the photographer.

Then take a small step of action; then another and another. Wear clothes that you feel good in. Staying in your comfort zone, fearing failure, and so avoid taking risks. Low self-esteem doesn't just affect the way we look at and think about ourselves, but also the way we view the world around us. So glad I found your website. These steps might seem awkward at first, but they'll get easier with practice.
And that's just some of the reasons people attend our courses. In my health class, I am researching how confidence in girls decreases with age. That creates unpleasant atmosphere at a workplace. Try to exercise at least 30 minutes a day most days of the week. Make a Self-Esteem Bucket Another great self-esteem activity is the self-esteem bucket — one that you will definitely find both amusing and interesting, plus very inspiring. This exercise will help them take control of their development and give them a sense of ownership in their own , a trait that will serve them well in the future.
Tip: Self-confidence is about balance. Take yourself out on a date. Find a class through your local adult service or community centre. You have found the web's most reliable, practical and effective self help site for developing confidence and raising self esteem. But back then I had great self confidence and didn't care what anyone thought of me. No matter how small the goal, the act of completing it will boost your self-confidence and you will be better prepared to tackle larger goals.
The truth is, all of that is just marketing and branding. Your perspectives, gifts and value are exclusively yours. Who talked you out of them the first time? You don't need to react negatively to negative thoughts. It can be hard to move forward especially if something in your life has caused you to doubt yourself. Want to be great at public speaking and presentations? To get a job, you need to apply. Helping your young adult child to feel confident can be a challenge.
Being as drunk as I was, I wasn't able to catch my balance and the railing wasn't bolted up correctly so over I went, 10-12 feet head first. Changing your perception for yourself and replacing your self-image with a new one, takes time and effort. Unfortunately, many of us spend our lives focusing on the needs of others rather than ourselves. Sit comfortably, or lie down, and close your eyes. Do you think boys also experience this confidence decrease but in a different way? If you are wondering about it, the goal of this exercise is showing you what hurtful life experiences, and negative things others have said to you, can actually do to your self-esteem. It made me realise that whilst I may be terrified to be in certain situations, as many people do, I am more than capable of dealing with them in a manner that comes across confidently and assured.
Which leaves you thinking 'What the hell is wrong with me? When you feel joyful, your joy is contagious. Why Do You Need Help? This I know If you want to change your life, a it starts and ends with your thinking b see a. Even some psychiatric institutions are recommending most of the techniques elaborated below, so I suggest you to pay close attention to them. At the other end, we have people who may be over-confident. She knew how to joke, she was an amazing storyteller, and there was some charisma about her that was unknown and a mystery for others. Instead of feeling worthy, you will feel inappropriate in your life, and that you don't deserve happiness.
Take a close look at this as it is vitally important! And then all your failures will be nothing but the memories of the past. They might need some help from you, but they should be able to come up with several traits that they find important in a friend. All this lowers their self-esteem still further, sucking them into a downward spiral. You should do all these steps three times a day: 1 When you wake up 2 At lunch 3 Before you go to bed Visualizing and planning for success in meeting your goals makes it exponentially more likely that you will achieve them. This fear of failing can be debilitating and cause young adults to miss opportunities. Or maybe you like the thrills of treasure hunting with a metal detector? Everyone makes mistakes — and mistakes aren't permanent reflections on you as a person. I gradually understood that when time appeared to be passing more quickly, the sounds I perceived were more measured in their nature.
Instead, break your goal down into smaller parts and focus on each separately. Confidence is the gateway to success; to the life that you wish to lead and to the dreams that you desire to live. I would search for a niche. It all seems so glib and is written from the perspective of someone who has their health and strength and who seems incapable of putting themselves in the position of someone who doesn't. These self esteem tips will help you feel better about yourself. People love me and respect me, and I nothing can stop me from becoming who I want to be! The importance of knowing yourself and being at peace with who you are cannot be overstated.

Gambia executed nine death row prisoners overnight Thursday and more will take place in the coming days, Amnesty International warned Friday. President Yahya Jammeh (pictured) vowed last week to carry out all death sentences by mid-September.
AFP - Amnesty International on Friday said that Gambia had executed nine death row prisoners, after President Yahya Jammeh vowed to carry out all death sentences by mid-September.
"Amnesty International has received credible reports that nine persons were executed last night (Thursday) in Gambia and that more persons are under threat of imminent executions today and in the coming days," the rights body said in a statement.
A Gambian security source reported that all 47 death row prisoners had on Thursday night been "transferred to one place" but he and other sources could not confirm the executions.
"The man is determined to execute the prisoners and he will do so," the security source told AFP, referring to President Jammeh.
The president's office said in a statement late Friday that the people on death row "have exhausted all their legal rights of appeal as provided by the law" -- without, however, confirming the nine executions.
"The law of the Gambia on the death penalty is very clear. In due compliance with the law of the Gambia, all the persons on the death row have been tried by the Gambian courts of competence jurisdictions and therefore convicted to death," the statement said.
"Also, in accordance with the law, these people have exhausted all their legal rights of appeal as provided by the law."
In a televised address to mark this year's Muslim feast of Eid al-Fitr on Sunday Jammeh said: "By the middle of next month, all the death sentences would have been carried out to the letter.
"There is no way my government will allow 99 percent of the population to be held to ransom by criminals."
According to Amnesty those executed include one woman and two of them are Senegalese citizens.
France condemned Gambia’s decision on Tuesday in a stern declaration made by the foreign affairs ministry, calling on the president to aim instead towards a total abolition of the death penalty.
"The decision of the Gambian president Yahya Jammeh to execute nine prisoners after more than a quarter of a century without execution would be a giant leap backwards", said Paule Rigaud, Amnesty International's Africa deputy director.
Amnesty said the last official execution took place in 1985. However AFP's correspondent in Banjul reports that executions have continued unofficially with the most recent taking place in 2007.
Death sentences in Gambia, a sliver of land wedged into Senegal, are carried out by hanging.
Jammeh, a former military officer who seized power in a 1994 coup, brooks no dissent in a country often blasted by rights bodies for abuses.
Many top officials have found themselves charged with treason, often related to coup plots which observers have said are a sign of paranoia by Jammeh, who won a fourth term in office in November 2011.
Last year eight military top brass, including the former army and intelligence chiefs and the ex-deputy head of the police force, were sentenced to death for treason.
Amnesty urged Gambian authorities to "immediately halt any further possible executions".
The reported executions come after a lightning visit this week by an envoy of African union chief Boni Yayi, who urged President Jammeh to renounce his plans to execute all the prisoners, many of whom are political detainees.
"After having learned of the imminent execution of a number of prisoners sentenced to death, President Yayi, who is very concerned, wished that President Yahya Jammeh not carry out such a decision," Benin's Foreign Minister Nassirou Bako Arifari told Radio France Internationale late Thursday.
But the government remained undeterred.
Friday's statement said: "The general public is hereby warned that the peace and the stability of the Gambia as regard of the protection of life, liberty and property of individuals must at all costs be preserved and jealously guarded. This is the position of the Gambia Government."

This is why I love the internet, two of my favourite shows combined.
Reports are coming in that Matthew Vaughan has been confirmed as the director of the next Star Wars movie! This and the rumoured writers that are on board suggest a darker tone to the next triology. It could be what the fans hae been waiting for since Empire Strikes Back.
Check out Total Film for the full report.
With the forthcoming and highly anticipated spring 2013 release of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ prequel ‘Oz: The Great and the Powerful’ directed by Sam Raimi (Spider Man, The Evil Dead) it would be worth reflecting on Disney’s forgotten 1980’s predecessor ‘Return to Oz’ which was dismissed by audiences and critics alike when it was released back in 1985 but has since gained a strong cult following over the years from loyal fans of the L Frank Baum’s Oz books and of films from the 1980’s. It has since inspired the Scissor Sisters to write a song, ‘Return to Oz and numerous blogs and tributes have been written by fans all over the world. Here we look at how a film with such promise became a massive box office flop resulting in one of Hollywood’s greats Walter Murch never directing a film again and why it deserves to be considered a cult classic of the 1980’s.
The idea and for making another Oz film initially came from Murch himself in the early 1980’s who had previously won an Oscar for Best Sound Design in 1979 for Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Apocalypse Now’. Disney owned all the rights to the Oz books at the time and despite Murch never having directed a full length feature before Disney wanted to proceed and bought into the idea of making another Oz film.
Murch’s script was adapted from Baum’s books, ‘The Marvellous Land of Oz’ 1904 and ‘Ozma of Oz’ 1907 but his own ideas were clearly shaping the story. He saw his film as ‘one side’ of Oz and as un-official sequel of the beloved ‘Wizard of Oz’ and not a direct sequel and his Oz was a very different Oz to what Disney and film audiences had originally anticipated. There were strong connotations to the original Oz film such as the yellow brick road, the ruby slippers, Dorothy’s friend such as Tik Tok (Tin man) and Scarecrow, the Emerald City. However, Murch’s story was a much darker re-interpretation of Baum’s stories. Firstly it wasn’t a musical, this film was much more sombre in tone with much more dramatic realism throughout the film. Within the first twenty minutes we see Dorothy (played by 9 year old Fairuza Balk) unable to sleep as she keeps dreaming of Oz. She is subsequently whisked off to hospital by her Aunt Em (Piper Laurie) for electric shock treatment by creepy Dr Worley to help her sleep and this was only the beginning! Once Dorothy escapes and is on her way to Oz, she finds the yellow brick road all destroyed and cannot find her friend Scarecrow who has been turned into an ornament by the evil Nome King so she sets out to find him. Making new friends on the way she encounters the nasty Wheelers who were simply petrifying for the average 8 year old at the time. Dorothy is then imprisoned by the wicked Princess Mombi who has over thirty inter-changeable heads in her castle so for young fans of the original Wizard of Oz this ‘sequel’ would probably be remembered more like a childhood horror film.
The film was marketed by Disney as a sequel and child-friendly fantasy but had been given a PG rating instead of a G. Essentially the film wasn’t suitable for very young children so for those who went to see it at the cinema and were expecting a sweet Disney fairy tale like the ‘The Wizard of Oz’ found it petrifying. Critics at the time were centering more on how sinister the story was given the age group that the film was targeting instead of focusing on the real quality of the filmmaking and screenplay so the film performed poorly at box office. Murch’s production was massively mismanaged and ended up so over budget eventually leading to bankruptcy and Disney made a massive financial loss.
Despite all the production troubles, financial woes, and criticism ‘Return to Oz’ is a hugely entertaining film for those who like their fairy tales a bit more spooky and should be seen as a stand alone film and not a direct sequel to ‘The Wizard of Oz’. The stop motion effects are excellent and deserved far more recognition at the time of release. It is hauntingly imaginative full of quirky characters, such as Pumpkinhead, Tik Tok, Bellina (the talking chicken) and Scarecrow who all have a wonderful friendship with Dorothy. It is full of energy and creativity with a beautiful melancholic score composed by Dave Shire. The costumes, the sets, and lighting also attributed to making this a compelling and irresistible fantasy. Along with other 80’s classics such as ‘Dark Crystal and ‘The Never-ending Story’, Return to Oz’ is highly recommended deserves the 80’s cult classic following which it has gained amongst older children and adults over the past twenty seven years.

On Thursday 28 February, twelve Whitecliffe Fashion Design students embarked on a 5-week journey through India to learn about sustainable practices and participate in artisan craft workshops.
Currently in the third week of their trip, the students have already been involved in many cultural experiences, visits, craft-making lessons and have learnt a range of different manufacturing processes. One of their first stops was in Ahmedabad where they visited the Arvind Mills and Arvind Indigo Museum. The Arvind Mills is a leading textile company in India, dedicated to leaving the smallest environmental footprint possible, as well as focusing on ethical and social sustainability within surrounding communities. They own or manage 15 global apparel brands including commonly known brands such as Gap, Calvin Klein, and Tommy Hilfiger.
Another stop was visiting the Calico Museum which displays art that is sustainable in its practices. These included hand dyed textiles with natural plant and insect dyes, fibres spun and woven by hand, and materials grown without pesticides. All of which ties into the trip’s sustainability focus on crafting high quality textiles and garments with the lowest possible negative impact to the environment and its people.
Crafts that the students have spent numerous days working on include embroidery and different embroidering techniques, Rogan art, patchwork, appliqué, weaving recycled plastics and block painting.
Plastic weaving is an innovative and contemporary craft, which is carried out on Polymer looms known as Polylooms. Plastics are collected from garbage and industrial waste, then cleaned and segregated on the basis of colour and quality. Following this, the plastic is cut into long strips, wound on a bobbin, and then woven into material used for various products. Left over pieces of plastic are used to create tassels, so that no plastic is wasted in the process. The block painting workshop started with preparing the cloth. Using teak wood blocks that had been carved in geometrical patterns and floral motifs, the students then stamped the cloth with the designs. The next step, was dying the cloth in indigo, henna or madder root for colour before drying.
To read about their amazing experience so far and to follow their journey with daily updates, have a look at their PMSA 2019 blog here.

The race for agriculture commissioner got a shake-up on Wednesday night, as state Rep. Brandon Creighton announced he would instead run for state Senate and former state Rep. Sid Miller said he would enter the ag commissioner's race.
State Rep. Brandon Creighton, R-Conroe, announced Wednesday night that he would end his bid for agriculture commissioner and instead run for the seat to be vacated by retiring state Sen. Tommy Williams, R-The Woodlands.
"Southeast Texas is one of the fastest growing regions of our state, and I believe we need experienced, conservative representation from someone proven to deliver results," Creighton said at a kickoff event for his Senate run in Montgomery County.
Meanwhile, Republican former state Rep. Sid Miller will announce Thursday that he has decided to run for agriculture commissioner. The former state representative from Stephenville will compete in the Republican primary against two other candidates, Austin-based lawyer Eric Opiela and Uvalde Mayor J Allen Carnes.

Creativity is in the Top 3 skills that employers looked for when they were recruiting in 2018, says to www.businessinsider.com, and that’s not a surprising fact at all. As technology becomes more advanced, there are new opportunities for small and medium businesses that allow them to grow and expand. And that is a great thing. However, it can also change the way companies promote and reach-out for customers.
Social media is a huge deal these days. It brings new opportunities and lets people share content to the right audience. It can help you build a brand and get to know your customers a bit more. But because of social media being available for everyone, it is very hard to create content that will stand out. Average social media user spends about 5 seconds on each piece of content. If they won’t find it interesting until then, they simply scroll down to look for something more adequate.
It’s not just the social media site of the business that creativity will have a positive impact on. Because of the high number of competitors on the market, creative solutions will help you get ahead from your rivals.
A great example of that kind of creative solution could be Tesco and their first loyalty card back in 1995. This idea has pioneered the ‘loyalty card revolution’, and now we can find them almost everywhere.
In Bevlan we understand that improving creativity can be quite challenging. That’s why we’ve got 3 quick tips for you, that will help you make your existing team more creative.
It’s important that your team members feel confident in expressing their ideas, even if these are not always very good ones. Letting people feel comfortable when talking about what they’ve come up with will encourage them to think about such solutions even more in the future, which will then improve their creativity.
This doesn’t mean just any type of music, but that relaxing and popular music which will help you and your colleagues feel comfortable and relaxed at work. Music has a positive impact on the human’s brain and results in better and more creative ideas.
The best way to help people get creative is to show that creativity is your piece of cake too, and what could be a better place to do so then a breakout area where most of your employees spend their breaks. When having a rest, we are more likely to be inspired. That’s why implementing some creativity-related touches into your breakout areas, such as vibrant colours and art could be a great way of improving the creativity in your team.
We hope that you’ve found the above quick tips useful. Creativity is key in order to find the most innovative solutions, just like Tesco did 24 years ago.
You may want to have a look at our range of breakout furniture. Our specialist will help you get that creative touch we’ve mentioned earlier.

The road back has been a long one for Jon ‘Bones’ Jones, but he’s finally reclaimed the UFC’s Light Heavyweight Champion. Jones picked up the belt at UFC 214 defeating Daniel Cormier.
Jones and Cormier have a long history. They had to reschedule their first fight in 2014 after Jones injured his leg. Jones then tested positive for “cocaine metabolites”; later paying a $25,000 for violating the UFC’s Athlete Code of Conduct.
Eventually, the fight went ahead with Jones coming out victorious. Then, in 2015, he was arrested for his involvement in a hit-and-run and stripped of his title. Cormier beat Anthony Johnson in a fight to fill the vacated Light Heavyweight spot.
It was announced that Jones would face Cormier again in a 2016 title bout, but the fight was not to be. First it was rescheduled due to yet another injury (this time, Cormier foot was hurt); then, in July of 2016, Jones earned a one-year suspended after testing positive for estrogen blockers. By the time Jones and Cormier faced off in July 29, 2017, it was a long time coming. In the end, Jones landed a viscious head kick in the third round and was able to secure the victory via knockout.

Rabbi Feldman is happy to discuss the details of both the wedding and the marriage with the couple and/or their parents and can provide useful resources based on your needs.
Rabbi Feldman wants to be a source of support and counsel for the members of interfaith families when the time comes that they must face their own impending death or that of a loved one.

Cremation is prohibited by Jewish law. As such, our Rabbi Feldman will not officiate at the service of anyone who is to be or has been cremated.
We encourage you to reach out to one of our rabbis or leadership with any questions you may have regarding your family's participation in communal life at The Jewish Center.

Bebe Rexha recently announced that she has graced the cover of Nylon Magazine’s April 2019 Music issue. The Inquisitr reported the stunning cover where Rexha poses in sparkly jeweled attire behind a pretty pink backdrop. The post received over 198,000 likes on her Instagram page.
In the interview, Bebe expresses that she dates people based on their energy and not strictly on their gender.
“If I want to make out with someone, I’ll just make out with them. I don’t care who you are. I’m big on energies,” E! Online reported her saying.
“I think I scare men,” she told the magazine.
Rexha is no stranger to mentioning her sexuality in her music either. Her latest single “Last Hurrah” mentions being done with men and women, and her collaboration with Rita Ora, Charli XCX, and Cardi B last year was about wanting to kiss girls.
According to The Daily Mail, Rexha won Country Song of the Year for her huge collaboration with Florida Georgia Line on “Meant To Be” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards last month.
In February, Bebe was nominated for her first two Grammy Awards. She was up for Best New Artist and Best Country Duo/Group Performance for her collaboration with Florida Georgia Line on “Meant To Be.” Her production and writing credits for other artists consist of Madonna, Selena Gomez, Tinashe, Iggy Azalea, We The Kings, Nick Jonas, and Eminem. After building a fanbase and releasing three EPs, Rexha released her debut album Expectations last summer. The album went top 20 in the U.S., Canada, and Australia, while it went top 40 in the U.K.
Bebe’s latest single, “Last Hurrah,” has achieved over 50 million streams on Spotify and over 34 million views on her YouTube page for its official music video. So far, it has peaked at No. 1 on the U.S. Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart and No. 22 on the U.S. Mainstream Top 40 chart. In the U.K., the single is climbing the charts and has so far reached No. 50.
On Twitter, Rexha has been teasing her fans about her second studio album, asking them what she should title it.
Rexha posted a photo to her Instagram yesterday sharing that she was currently in London, U.K.

Science denialism can seem intractable, and studies on the topic are seldom encouraging. For example, research out of Yale Law School suggests that when people form their opinions on contentious topics such as climate change or evolution, political or religious values trump knowledge of the concept.
A study published in March in BioScience begs to differ, at least when it comes to evolution. Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and their colleagues measured participants' knowledge of evolutionary theory, as well as their acceptance of evolution as fact. They found a significant link between understanding the fine points of the theory and believing in it, regardless of religious or political identity.
Unlike earlier research that involved only high school or college students, the demographics of the 1,100 subjects in the new study better approximated those of the overall U.S. population. The researchers also used more nuanced language in their questions to distinguish between subjects' intellectual grasp of evolution and their personal feelings toward it. It remains unclear whether science education leads directly to increased acceptance of evolution, but the Penn study supports this possibility.

No one is going to love you exactly like you imagine. No one is ever going to read your mind and take every star from the sky at the perfect time and hand it to you. No one is going to show up at your door on a horse, with a shoe you lost. Do you understand? That's why you have to love yourself enough, so that any other love just adds more candles to the cake you've already iced.

Events unfolding in Freetown this week have illustrated the political mood in Sierra Leone. The incumbent regime of Ernest Bai Koroma and his All Peoples Congress (APC) have been all-but-defeated and are now in a permanently collapsing defensive position.
There is no doubt that the APC is fighting a losing battle. They have lost the electoral contest and failed to align with the popular aspirations of Sierra Leoneans. It is a fact that APC supporters have now fully realized that Samura Kamara, the handpicked candidate of Ernest Koroma, is heading into the second round of this election as a badly defeated and morally broken candidate.
The broken state of the APC candidate is the real motive behind the ongoing attacks on the credibility of the National Electoral Commission (NEC) and the persistent harassment and intimidation of electoral staff by the police.
The desire to protect his stolen wealth is fueling Koroma’s ambition and determination to rig the polls in favor of his party. He is also concerned that the many people he has offended and trampled upon in the last ten years of his presidency will seek revenge.
A few months ago, APC leaders and supporters claimed that the advent of the National Grand Coalition (NGC) and Kandeh Yumkellah would reduce Maada Bio’s 37% in 2012. These speculations and predictions turned out to be wrong. Bio has not only forced the APC into a second round, but he has garnered an impressive number of votes in areas that are considered traditional APC strongholds.
Compared to Bio’s reported 2012 statistics against the now outgoing Ernest Koroma, this is an impressive leap. Bio’s more than 43% lead in this first round has illustrated an increased electoral advantage for a candidate who some had said was unelectable.
The ongoing opposition victory and success have occurred in an electoral environment deliberately constricted by a corrupt and rogue incumbent president who does not want to leave political office.
Why have the covert and electorally subversive actions of Ernest Koroma failed to give Samura Kamara an undue advantage in the polls sufficient enough for victory?
This shock is what now torments the APC leadership and members.
The APC’s ongoing war against NEC is a clear indication of its apparent defeat. We must force Koroma and his APC to accept that they have completely lost the support of the people. They must understand that the ongoing bribery of certain politicians will certainly do nothing to balance the electoral scale in favor of Samura Kamara.
APC leaders have continued to deceive their supporters with false hopes and stories about their defeat in the first round. It is clear that Ernest Koroma knows his authoritarian and vindictive use of state power has created more hatred and dissent against his regime. He knows quite well that his government is facing an election with an abysmal political and administrative record hanging over it.
These methods include the coercive use of the judiciary and police forces, the bribery of political actors and voters, and the crooked application of draconian legislation and judges. Koroma’s ultimate aim is to prevent an opposition victory in this election. He is desperately determined to do anything to subvert the democratic process and undermine the popular will of Sierra Leonean voters.
Koroma’s combined authoritarian methods and tactics against the opposition have so far failed to yield his desired intentions. His techniques and tactics keep crashing against the resilience and determination of a growing opposition support base.
Bio has defied all the anti-democratic efforts and intrigues by Koroma and his gang of politicians. Now Koroma and his men are scared that they have to face Maada Bio in the second round with a defeated candidate who is growing more unpopular by the second.
It is now evident that Samura Kamara’s morale is down and he lacks the energy to compete in a clean electoral contest politically.
Over the last two weeks, Koroma has been begging the former ministers and other politicians he had sacked, humiliated, and marginalized to support his doomed successor. These discredited politicians, once humiliated by Koroma, have now found renewed relevance in the APC. They have assembled themselves into a “new campaign team” that is equally backed by a few discredited APC elements in the media.
Their first subversive move has been to initiate a media campaign against the National Electoral Commission (NEC) and its staff. These APC journalists and politicians have falsely alleged that the opposition spent five million United States dollars in bribes on electoral staff to rig the polls.
Koroma used vitriolic propaganda campaign, the police service, and judiciary to harass and intimidate NEC officials a few days ago. These ugly developments are all part of renewed efforts by Ernest Koroma to create the basis to justify a planned rigging of the second-round elections in his party’s favor.
The APC plan is to discredit the NEC and, by extension, the results of the first round to deny the opposition its justified leading position against the APC ahead of the second round. The logic of this APC attack on the image and reputation of the Electoral Commission, including the organized police harassment and intimidation of its staff, is a calculated effort by Ernest Koroma to create the basis for a planned rigging of the second-round elections.
The plan is Koroma’s last-ditch effort to rescue his defeated candidate.
The opposition must carefully examine this situation, and they must understand that it is their responsibility to prevent the APC’s planned subversion of the popular will of the masses. The opposition must prepare its rank and file in anticipation of the rigging plans of the APC. They must make it impossible for Ernest Koroma to forcefully impose Samura Kamara as president of the country without a mandate of the people.
Second, there is no way out for the APC’s defeated candidate. Samura Kamara has no chances of survival in this second round. Kamara is already a broken and crushed contender. The APC plans on rescuing Samura Kamara by subterranean and subversive efforts.
What does this mean in the real geometric of electoral politics? It means that the opposition party activists and members must be entirely ready and willing to secure the votes of the masses. They must protect and defend their electoral victory.
The lessons of the first round are now a template that they can work in a more sophisticated way in this second round.
Concretely, all pro-democracy forces tasked with monitoring the voting process must not allow the APC to stuff ballot boxes in their strongholds. They must vigilantly and efficiently watch the entire voting process. This task includes inspection of the voters’ registers. It also involves the verification of the casting of ballots, and the surveillance of every activity in the polling stations, including the correct recording, tabulation, and computation of votes, and the monitoring of the tallying and reporting of total vote counts.
The resilience and robust determination of the opposition to protect and defend the votes is undoubtedly the only insurance against the last-ditch plan of Ernest Koroma to steal the elections.
The APC’s early attempts have failed. For example, in the weeks before the first round, the APC paraded the length and breadth of the country with rented crowds organized in dancing masquerades designed to deceptively create the impression that Ernest Koroma and his unpopular handpicked candidates were the favorite choices of the masses.
Koroma and his boot-licking media propagandists and social media vigilantes had claimed that the APC would win the elections on the first ballot. Koroma’s so-called “thank you tour” and the subsequent APC dancing crowds that followed were the initial rigging plans that failed to yield the desired outcome for the APC in the first round.
The failure of those plans happened mostly because the opposition was robust in monitoring the voting process. Robust monitoring left the APC with no opportunity to actualize its rigging plans at the ballot box fully.
But the second round has yet to come. The task of defending the ballots must include a strong willingness to protect the leadership of the Electoral Commission against the ongoing authoritarian methods of Ernest Koroma if the need arises.
The failure of the financially induced dance parades to ensure an APC lead in the first round is illustrative of how the money will do nothing to change the swelling tide against the APC. No declarations of support for the APC by any so-called third-party coalition or candidate will add any political value to the APC’s electoral chances in this second round.
The popular political aspiration and electoral mood of the overwhelming majority of voters in Sierra Leone today is not driven by any declarations of small party candidates. The growing tide against the APC is the overwhelming anger and outrage against the suffocating corruption and kleptocratic conduct of Koroma’s regime.
The APC leadership’s arrogant belief that their stolen public wealth would successfully subvert the democratic aspirations of ordinary people is heading for a rude awakening. Thus, the APC’s ongoing effort to empty the Central Bank into the pockets of individual politicians is pointless.
Koroma and his men should now clearly realize that their efforts will have no impacts on the decisions of ordinary voters. The hundreds of billions of Leones already lavished on the street parades did not produce the APC’s desired outcomes in the first round. Why would this really be different in the second round?
The earlier the APC leadership realizes that no amount of stolen money thrown at corrupt politicians will save Samura Kamara from continued defeat, the better it will be for the public budget.
The underlying truth is that Samura Kamara is already defeated and broken. He has no chance of recovering in this second round. That is just the hard fact the APC must try to accept.

The Oxford Karate Academy Karate Kid classes (see timetable) are aimed at teaching children respect which extends beyond the class. The children are expected to show respect in the community and this is supported by asking the parents and school teachers about their behaviour.
We offer karate training for children from 4 years old. Karate Kid classes use fun combined with life skills and achievement awards that are built on simple less-aggressive martial arts skills.
Orange Belt Juniors performing Mae Geri (pictured right).
Discipline is an important part in teaching self defence to children and is taught in a non-threatening way. Good behaviour is rewarded with positive reinforcement by the karate instructors (senseis) and the class is taught to recognise and appreciate good behaviour.
Children's karate is touch contact and all children wear protective sparring gear to maintain safety. The sparring gear is fun to put on and looks really cool in class.
Fun is an important feature in teaching children and this helps build good rapport in the class.
Parents are expected to help out occasionally and may be asked to hold pads for the kids to strike. In fact we want the parents to train too!
We teach anti bullying and stranger danger strategies and these are extended to the parents watching class.
The children are expected to bring a friend to class for a FREE trial session and this is rewarded financially if that friend should join. In fact one child has had £130 in rewards!
. Remember that adults can reap the same benefits too! Take a look at the testimonials on this site.
Call 07956 902101 to book a FREE trial session.
Don't forget to include your name, address, phone number and age of student if enquiring for a child. We ONLY accept emails from parents and not the children themselves.
We’re looking forward to seeing you in class. Let's KICK START your child into the exciting practice of Karate with our super team of Black Belt instructors and see if we can make them Black Belts too!
