Nowhere is the old adage “What goes up must come down” truer than in climbing. We climb up and after we reach the top, whether it’s a mountain summit, top of a sandstone spire, or the end of a bolted sports route, we have to return to the ground, descending to the flat earth below. It’s important to remember that you are not off your day’s climb until you safely descend to the cliff base and then hike back to your car at the parking lot....

In dance, timing refers to moving to the beat of the music. However, having perfect timing means more than performing basic steps perfectly to music beats. It’s not difficult to move to the beat, but it takes lots of practice to teach your mind and body how to actually feel the beat of the music. Perfect timing is being able to let go and allow yourself to express your feelings through your movements, instead of trying to keep count of the beats in your head....

A nurse practitioner (NP) provides primary and specialty healthcare. Like a physician, he or she assesses and diagnoses patients, orders laboratory tests, prescribes medications, and manages health conditions.

This is one of several occupations that fall under the general title, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN)....

Getting a great shave used to be an expensive process. Blades for the better mass market razors (such as the Gillette Fusion ProGlide) tend to be expensive, while the less expensive blades just don’t provide a great shave. When I came across an ad for Harry’s, I was intrigued but skeptical. With Harry’s, Andy Katz-Mayfield and Jeff Raider are attempting to do the same thing for shaving as Raider did with Warby Parker and eyewear—make a high-quality product at a much more affordable price....

Think about your priorities for a moment. Where are you on that list? It probably starts out with your kids at the top—naturally—followed by other responsibilities, like your job, taking care of aging parents, helping friends, and then…somewhere at the bottom: you. You might even feel as though this putting-yourself-last approach is a necessary part of single parenting on your own. (And it often is, because you can only do so much....

Most venues are accustomed to the pressures that come with coordinating multiple events in a short time span. After all, their business depends on them providing quality service, and every event is an opportunity to showcase their skills to both event planners and attendees. The most critical time though comes before the show even begins, when the client walks into the banquet room for setup. It is at this moment where the tone will be set for the rest of the day....

Always keep in mind that being a summer associate gives you a chance to evaluate the firm, as much as they’re evaluating you. What if you spend the summer at a firm and decide you don’t want to go back permanently? Or what if they reject you, and you don’t have that option?​ If the firm you summered at isn’t going to work out permanently, you need to decide what to do next....

The formal definition of gymnastics, according to Oxford Dictionaries, is “Exercises developing or displaying physical agility and coordination. The modern sport of gymnastics typically involves exercises on uneven bars, balance beam, floor, and vaulting horse for women, and horizontal and parallel bars, rings, floor, and pommel horse for men.” Gymnastics is a sport in which athletes called gymnasts perform acrobatic feats – leaps, flips, turns, handstands and more – on a piece of apparatus such as a balance beam, or with a piece of apparatus like a rope or ribbon....

The “stymie” is an archaic part of golf, no longer in use, in match play in which one golfer’s ball sat on the putting green between the hole and the opponent’s golf ball. In other words, Golfer A’s ball blocked the hole for Golfer B’s putt. Unless the two balls were within six inches of one another, the golf ball closer to the hole was not lifted during the stymie era....

G♯ major chords exist, so why don’t we ever see a G♯ major key signature? Simply put, it’s too complex for practical use, and there’s an easier way to express it: with the key of A♭ major (its enharmonic equivalent). Key signatures contain a maximum of seven singular sharps or flats, which we see in the keys C-sharp major and C-flat major, respectively. But, if we were to continue the pattern of sharps, the next key signature would be G-sharp major, which contains an Fx (double-sharp)....

As former USGA president David Fay once explained, the organization wants its national championship to “always (be) regarded as the world’s toughest golf tournament.” “We try to make it hard and fair,” Fay said. “Sometimes you get close to the edge and sometimes you go over the edge....
