II:85. Their fashions of mourning and of burial are these: Whenever any household has lost a man who is of any regard amongst them, the whole number of women of that house forthwith plaster over their heads or even their faces with mud. Then leaving the corpse within the house they go themselves to and fro about the city and beat themselves, with their garments bound up by a girdle and their breasts exposed, and with them go all the women who are related to the dead man, and on the other side the men beat themselves, they too having their garments bound up by a girdle; and when they have done this, they then convey the body to the embalming.

II:86. In this occupation certain persons employ themselves regularly and inherit this as a craft. These, whenever a corpse is conveyed to them, show to those who brought it wooden models of corpses made like reality by painting, and the best of the ways of embalming they say is that of him whose name I think it impiety to mention when speaking of a matter of such a kind; the second which they show is less good than this and also less expensive; and the third is the least expensive of all. Having told them about this, they inquire of them in which way they desire the corpse of their friend to be prepared. Then they after they have agreed for a certain price depart out of the way, and the others being left behind in the buildings embalm according to the best of these ways thus: First with a crooked iron tool they draw out the brain through the nostrils, extracting it partly thus and partly by pouring in drugs; and after this with a sharp stone of Ethiopia they make a cut along the side and take out the whole contents of the belly, and when they have cleared out the cavity and cleansed it with palm-wine they cleanse it again with spices pounded up: then they fill the belly with pure myrrh pounded up and with cassia and other spices except frankincense, and sew it together again. Having so done they keep it for embalming covered up in natron for seventy days, but for a longer time than this it is not permitted to embalm it; and when the seventy days are past, they wash the corpse and roll its whole body up in fine linen cut into bands, smearing these beneath with gum, which the Egyptians use generally instead of glue. Then the kinsfolk receive it from them and have a wooden figure made in the shape of a man, and when they have had this made they enclose the corpse, and having shut it up within, they store it then in a sepulchral chamber, setting it to stand upright against the wall.

II:87. Thus they deal with the corpses which are prepared in the most costly way; but for those who desire the middle way and wish to avoid great cost they prepare the corpse as follows: having filled their syringes with the oil which is got from cedar-wood, with this they forthwith fill the belly of the corpse, and this they do without having either cut it open or taken out the bowels, but they inject the oil by the breech, and having stopped the drench from returning back they keep it then the appointed number of days for embalming, and on the last of the days they let the cedar oil come out from the belly, which they before put in; and it has such power that it brings out with it the bowels and interior organs of the body dissolved; and the natron dissolves the flesh, so that there is left of the corpse only the skin and the bones. When they have done this they give back the corpse at once in that condition without working upon it any more.

II:88. The third kind of embalming, by which are prepared the bodies of those who have less means, is as follows: they cleanse out the belly with a purge and then keep the body for embalming during the seventy days, and at once after that they give it back to the bringers to carry away.

II:89. The wives of men of rank when they die are not given at once to be embalmed, nor such women as are very beautiful or of greater regard than others, but on the third or fourth day after their death (and not before) they are delivered to the embalmers. They do so about this matter in order that the embalmers may not abuse their women, for they say that one of them was taken once doing so to the corpse of a woman lately dead, and his fellow-craftsman gave information.

II:90. Whenever any one, either of the Egyptians themselves or of strangers, is found to have been carried off by a crocodile or brought to his death by the river itself, the people of any city by which he may have been cast up on land must embalm him and lay him out in the fairest way they can and bury him in a sacred burial-place, nor may any of his relations or friends besides touch him, but the priests of the Nile themselves handle the corpse and bury it as that of one who was something more than man.

These days, as more and more consumers are learning more and more about each particular strain of cannabis, there is an increasing amount of focus on the difference between Sativa and Indica strains. While some prefer one type of strain over the other, there are also quite a few Indica/Sativa hybrid strains.

Generally, even strains that combine a Sativa and an Indica background tend to lean heavily towards one side or the other in both genetic background and effect. However, Candy Kush Express Fast Flowering is unique even amongst Indica/Sativa hybrids: at 40 percent sativa and 60 percent Indica, this Kush strain is about as close to a true, evenly mixed hybrid that there is available. This translates to a unique blend of both Indica and Sativa effects.

The Sweet Special strain is part of Candy Kush’s direct genetic background. Among other things, this strain is known for a sweet taste and hearty, durable plants. These assets translate to Candy Kush, as the plants are physically sturdy for growing indoors or out, and the taste is always pleasingly sweet. The legendary Royal Kush is the other genetic parent of Candy Kush. Royal Kush is a famously Indica-heavy strain, being descended itself from the inexpressibly potent Afghani Kush. Both Afghani and Royal Kush are prized amongst insomniacs for their sedative effects, and more casual and/or recreational smokers note the heavy “couch-lock” present in these strains.

Since this strain does have slightly more Indica in its genetic background, a strong physical stoniness is present. However, the Sativa element of this strain shows itself in a heady, soaring euphoria. The Sativa aspects of Candy Kush help balance the effects, giving the soothing effects an unusual yet welcome energetic quality. This variety is gaining popularity for its unique blend of uplifting and deeply relaxing effects. The most effective medical uses of this strain are stress and pain relief. The low CBD content helps regulate the sedating effect, meaning that this strain has the capacity to relax without completely knocking users out.

It is notable that even with low CBD, the THC content of this strain weighs in at a very hefty 18 percent, making it one of the more potent varieties available. If grown outdoors, these plants yield at least 450 dried grams or up to 500 grams per plant if grown outdoors, or 475 to 525 dried grams when grown indoors. Since this is a Fast Flowering strain, flowering takes only seven weeks. When growing outdoors it is best to schedule for an early September harvest. When fully grown, the plants will reach a height of up to 100 centimetres indoors, or up to 170 centimetres outdoors.

Like all Fast Flowering strains, these Candy Kush plants make for an easy growing process. Even novice growers will find that it is surprisingly easy to quickly yield dense, high-quality buds with through a straightforward growing process. Candy Kush Express Fast Flowering is ideal for growers who are interested in an unusually balanced strain that is easy to grow quickly in either indoor or outdoor conditions.

Bautista holds off van der Mark for pole in Argentina!

Saturday, 12 October 2019 16:45 GMT

With the majority of the field setting strong lap times early on in the session, there was plenty of surprises right through the WorldSBK grid!

The 2019 MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship is in its penultimate round of the year in Argentina at the Circuito San Juan Villicum. Saturday means Tissot Superpole and Race 1, with the WorldSBK class back on a good pace in the 25-minute Tissot Superpole session. With the track cleaned up and the sun beating down in the Land of Silver, it was Alvaro Bautista (ARUBA.IT Racing – Ducati) who took pole position, in a session where the qualifying tyre was not the choice of the field.

The session began in tentative fashion, with riders feeling their way into the session in a precarious fashion. It was a disaster for Loris Baz (Ten Kate Racing – Yamaha), as the Frenchman suffered a nasty highside at the final corner. Baz was up and relatively OK, but he started his Tissot Superpole session on the back foot. With the first ten minutes complete, Alvaro Bautista was the rider on top, but there were plenty of riders surprising, with the likes of Alessandro Delbianco (Althea Mie Racing Team) in sixth and Leon Camier (Moriwaki Althea Honda Team) in eighth. Home-hero Leandro Mercado (Orelac Racing VerdNatura) was marooned in pitlane with a technical issue.

As the final ten minutes approached, Bautista remained on top ahead of Michael van der Mark (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK Team) and Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK), as the order began to change. Having been top of FP3, Toprak Razgatlioglu (Turkish Puccetti Racing) was in fourth, whilst Alex Lowes (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK Team) completed the top five.

And in extraordinary and perhaps unusual fashion, the order remained exactly the same, with the qualifying tyre not yielding strong lap times. Therefore, Alvaro Bautista took his first pole position since Assen on his first visit to San Juan, whilst Michael van der Mark took second place and back-to-back front rows for the first time in his career. Jonathan Rea attempted to take the pole away from Bautista on his final lap but couldn’t improve in position, cementing his third place.

It was a career-best Tissot Superpole performance for Toprak Razgatlioglu, who was confirmed in fourth place and was top Independent rider. Alex Lowes was rooted in fifth place and made it both Pata Yamahas in the top five, whilst it was a second consecutive second-row start for Michael Ruben Rinaldi (BARNI Racing Team), with the Italian securing sixth.

Chaz Davies will lead the charge from the row three from seventh, as the Welshman made a bold call to remain on the race tyre for the duration of the session. Behind him, it was the biggest surprise of the weekend, as Alessandro Delbianco (Althea Mie Racing Team) rocketed to Honda’s and his best Superpole session of the 2019 season. Delbianco is ahead of GRT Yamaha WorldSBK duo of reigning WorldSSP Champion Sandro Cortese and 2018 San Juan pole-sitter, Marco Melandri.

Big names outside the top ten include 2013 WorldSBK Champion Tom Sykes (BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team) down in 13th, the first time he has been off the first two rows after participating in a WorldSBK Tissot Superpole session since Magny-Cours in 2015. Leon Haslam (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) was all at sea as he was down in 14th place on his first time in San Juan, whilst Loris Baz managed to get back out but was only 18th. Leandro Mercado didn’t complete a lap.

Top six after Tissot Superpole in San Juan, full results here!

  1. Alvaro Bautista ( Racing – Ducati) 1’40.771
  2. Michael van der Mark (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK Team) +0.125
  3. Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) +0.140
  4. Toprak Razgatlioglu (Turkish Puccetti Racing) +0.463
  5. Alex Lowes (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK Team) +0.637
  6. Michael Ruben Rinaldi (BARNI Racing Team) +1.290

How to validate FAQ Schema Page?

To appear your FAQ Schema page in SERPs, you need to validate your schema as it is the most important step. Especially, if you are using an online FAQ Schema generator then you have to be very careful regarding validation.

If you are using a plugin like Yoast, Rank Math then you don’t have to worry much since they are top SEO plugin. They have their coding standards and they test every functionality within the plugin before pushing live.

But validation is a critical step so let’s find out the tools to Validate FAQ Schema.

Structured Data Testing Tool: Since Google is deprecating the Structured Data Testing Tool, so we are not going to use this tool for validation.

Rich Results Test: we are going to test our URL using Google Rich Results Testing Tool. Here the testing tool offers two ways to validate the rich results. You can directly paste your article URL in a first way and in the second way you can paste the code.

For the code section, go to your article and right-click on your browser and click View Page Source, copy the whole code and paste it into Code section of Rich Results Test Tool.

Here, we are going with the first method as it is easy to use.

1. First, go to Rich Results Test website

Here in Search Console, we can see a separate FAQ menu in the sidebar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use FAQ Schema in a Homepage?

The answer is both yes and no. If you are running a static page or landing page then you can use FAQ Schema but in other cases, you cannot. I advise using FAQPage Schema only on single-page applications for the homepage.

Is there difference between FAQ Schema and Q&A Schema?

FAQ and Q&A Schema are totally different schema but both are used to get the rich results in Google Search Engine Result Pages.
FAQ Schema is mostly used on Frequently Asked Questions to answer the questions. It can only be used by Author to answer the question for the same topic i.e. using user-generated content is invalid.
Q&A Schema can be used on the forum/product page where users can submit multiple answers for a single question.

Can I use FAQPage Schema more than one Instance?

No, you cannot use FAQ Schema in more that one instance. You can only use one FAQ Markup per page or article.

Can I promote affiliate products using FAQ Schema?

Google FAQ Schema Guidelines states that advertisement in FAQPage is an invalid case. so you cannot promote the affiliate products or any advertisement in Frequently Asked Questions Schema.

What can I use within FAQPage Schema?

FAQPage Schema supports Headings – h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, Links/Anchor Tag – a, Line Breaks – br, Lists (Ordered, Unorded) – ol, ul, li, Paragraph – p, div, Bold – b, strong, Italics – i, em, etc.

How many questions does Google show on SERPs under FAQ Schema?

Google mainly displays 3 questions by default and gives the ability to expand up to 10 questions in SERPs. If you have more than 10 questions then Google Insert the link to your site indicating View more on your site name.

Can I use FAQ with other Schema?

Yes, you can use FAQ Schema with other schemas like product review/rating but keep in mind that Google may show only one rich result.

This is an ultimate guide to add FAQ Schema in WordPress without a plugin. You can also use an SEO plugin like Yoast, Rank Math, etc to create a FAQ section in your blog post.

Also, I have mentioned above to add FAQ Schema in Genesis and GeneratePress WordPress Theme. If you are using another theme then your theme may have similar functionality to insert JSON-LD Script.

If you have any query and FAQ schema then feel free to comment below.

I am obsessed with WordPress and write articles about WordPress Speed Optimization, SEO, Blogging. I mostly publish tutorials on GeneratePress and GenerateBlocks.

4 thoughts on “How to Add FAQ Schema in WordPress?”

    • Yeah, the lead developer, Tom is advising to remove the theme schema. so, remove it. If the same schema is used by Theme and SEO plugin then it is not good for SEO. Test your URL in Rich Result Testing tool and see if there is an error.

      • Hi Suraj, I don’t see any errors while testing on the Rich Results tool. My site is (Electricvehicleweb (dot) in) Would I be missing out on something if i disable the Generatepress Schema? What is your general analysis?

Aftershocks from the National Football League’s investigation into workplace misconduct at the Washington Football Team are prompting some team owners to take the rare step of questioning the league’s handling of the high-profile investigation.

Although the NFL unveiled its conclusions from that investigation back in July, the controversy roared back to life in the middle of this season after offensive emails connected to the probe, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, led to the resignation of Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden.

Teen charged in shooting at Mount Tabor High School in Winston-Salem held without bond

High School Shooting-North Carolina
Skip Foreman
Members of the North Carolina State Highway Patrol talk in a shopping center parking lot in Winston-Salem, N.C., on Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2021. The troopers were part of the law enforcement response after a student was shot and killed at Mount Tabor High School.

A 15-year-old charged in the shooting death of a classmate at a North Carolina high school last month will remain held without bond.

Judge Athena Brooks denied a motion to release Maurice Evans Jr. on bond Thursday, news outlets report. Evans is charged with murder in the Sept. 1 shooting death of William Miller Jr. at Mount Tabor High School in Winston-Salem.

District Attorney Jim O’Neill asked the judge that the request for bond be denied, citing the community and Evans himself were safer with him in custody. Video of the confrontation shows Evans shooting Miller between classes, as Miller stood within feet of a teacher, O’Neill said.

Defense attorney J.D. Byers told the judge that Evans, Miller and others had been in an ongoing rift and Evans was afraid to return to school. After Evans was shot in June, an image of him in the intensive care unit appeared on social media and Byers said Miller commented that he was “going to finish the job.”

While Byers stressed that Evans had every reason to fear for his life, O’Neill called the shooting targeted and egregious.

Delfs brings holiday tradition of 'Hansel and Gretel' to RPO

It takes a bit of imagination to picture the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra’s music director Andreas Delfs, as a little kid.

But travel back a bit more than a half century, and he was a little boy in Germany, just five years old, attending his first opera. It was then that he got caught up in the magic of a fairy tale — Grimms' “Hansel and Gretel,” with music by Romantic composer Engelbert Humperdinck.

Jacob Walsh
The RPO's Andreas Delfs has considerable experience as a music director of opera companies in Europe, and will bring that experience to a semi-staged version of "Hansel and Gretel" on Nov. 20.

Delfs clearly recalls that moment: “The thrill when the lights went out. And when the overtures started.”

He has heard and conducted many operatic and orchestral performances in the years since then, but he says he finds “Hansel and Gretel” just as exciting today, 55 years later.

Delfs and the RPO bring that excitement to Rochester with their second performance of “Hansel and Gretel” on Saturday, Nov. 20, at Eastman Theatre’s Kodak Hall.

There's an element of magic in “Hansel and Gretel,” a sort of spooky otherworldliness that was a common theme in early 19th century German musical theatre, and still casts its spell today.

“When the holiday season starts, every little city, every theater, every amateur group puts up Hansel and Gretel,” Delfs says of the German Christmas tradition, which is similar to American holiday ritual of performing Tchaikovsky’s ballet “The Nutcracker.”

“I was reminded that showing you my holiday tradition would be a nice idea,” Delfs says.

The RPO production is in English, and “semi-staged.” That means limited sets and costumes, as the singers perform on stage with the orchestra.

To evoke more of the imaginative story with this limited setting, stage director Grant Preisser has cast the entire drama as a dream, simplifying the action to focus on the music and the relationship that connects the brother and sister. He was inspired in part by his experience growing up with five siblings, something that he says took time to appreciate.

Hansel and Gretel rehearsal.png
From left, Rachele Gilmore (Gretel), Stephen Powell (Father), Katherine Ciesinski (Mother), and Reilly Nelson (Hansel) rehearse the RPO's "Hansel and Gretel."

“They protect each other, and they support each other, as often as they’re like, teaching each other and poking fun at each other,” Preisser says of the opera’s siblings Hansel and Gretel. “But at the end, they survive, because they are a team, and they complement each other really, really well. And that’s just beautiful storytelling.”

Delfs and the RPO perform “Hansel and Gretel” — along with singers Reilly Nelson, Rachele Gilmore, Stephen Powell, Katherine Ciesinski, Catherine Martin, and Jasmine Habersham — on Saturday, Nov. 20, at 8 p.m., at Eastman Theatre’s Kodak Hall, 60 Gibbs St. $30-$78. Proof of vaccination, IDs, and masks required. 585-454-2100. Hear more from the cast and crew of "Hansel and Gretel" in an On Record interview with WXXI’s Julia Figueras.

A co-producer on Prince's upcoming 'Deliverance' EP has been blocked from releasing any new music after a lawsuit from Prince's estate.

A United States District Court judge in Minnesota has granted a temporary restraining order to the estate of Prince against the planned release of a six-song EP titled Deliverance the musician recorded between 2006 and 2008.

News of the surprise release first arrived Tuesday night in a press release touting "New undiscovered Prince recordings." The title track, opening with a fierce blues riff before settling into a steady gospel-tinged groove, became immediately available on iTunes and Apple Music, with the other five songs set for release on Friday, the one-year anniversary of the musician's death.

But on Wednesday, Prince's estate sued George Ian Boxill, the project's co-producer, claiming Boxill was "unauthorized" to release the music.

"The Estate is taking immediate legal actions to prevent Mr. Boxill's continuing violations of his agreement and the rights of the Estate and its partners in Prince's recordings," the estate said on Wednesday before the ruling. "Any dissemination of the recordings and underlying music compositions, or fixation of the same in any audiovisual work or otherwise, is unauthorized and in violation of the Estate's rights to the master recordings and musical compositions."

On Wednesday night, a judge agreed with the estate, writing that Boxill "shallnot publish or otherwise disseminate any unreleased recordings that comprise the work ofPrince Rogers Nelson that are alleged to be within the scope of the ConfidentialityAgreement between Boxill and Paisley Park Enterprises." The ruling also forced Boxill to immediately deliver all of the recordings to the estate.

As of press time, "Deliverance" is no longer available on any streaming services.

Speaking to Rolling Stone, David Staley, co-founder of RMA, the Vancouver, Washington record label behind the EP, says that as the title track "Deliverance" was commercially released prior to the temporary restraining order, he is confident the single will soon be available again on major digital platforms.

"I was pleased by the ruling last night, which in a nutshell indicated everything that has been released up to the time of the judge's ruling, late evening April 19th, can be and should be enjoyed by the fans," Staley tells Rolling Stone. "This includes the 'Deliverance' single and all other released works. My team and I are excited for the 'Deliverance' single to be available again to Prince's loyal fans. I, like Ian, feel 'Deliverance' is a very timely song and believe it will bring comfort to many in these trying times."

A representative for the estate did not immediately reply to a request for comment on the judge's ruling, but in a statement on Wednesday, laid out their case against Boxill.

"During his unparalleled career, Prince worked with many sound engineers, including Mr. Boxill," the statement said. "Like the other engineers that had the opportunity to work with Prince, Mr. Boxill signed an agreement, under which he agreed (1) all recordings that he worked on with Prince would remain Prince’s sole and exclusive property; (2) he would not use any recordings or property in any way whatsoever; and (3) he would return any such recordings or property to Prince immediately upon request.

"Mr. Boxill did not comply with his agreement," the statement continued. "Instead, Mr. Boxill maintained copies of certain tracks, waited until after Prince’s tragic death, and is now attempting to release tracks without the authorization of the Estate and in violation of the agreement and applicable law."

The restraining order is set to expire on May 3rd, with a hearing planned before then to determine the next course of action.

As the battle for pay equity in sports rages on, more and more women are investing in themselves

·17 min read

The ESPY icon trophy is behind her glistening on a shelf set up for video call backdrops. It’s additional proof Abby Wambach is a big-name presence, a household name with the U.S. women's national soccer team record for international goals. There are two World Cup titles. An Olympic gold medal. All said it's a career worthy of the trophy.

Wambach walked onto the stage that July with fellow 2016 honorees Peyton Manning and Kobe Bryant feeling like the world was finally acknowledging women. Women had finally made it. But then she looked to the men and her mind shifted.

“It was the most sobering reality check of my life,” Wambach told Yahoo Sports. “It was like I got slapped in the face with the inequity. Their biggest concern was where they were going to invest their hundreds of millions of dollars that they rightfully earned. And mine was how I was going to recreate myself to pay my mortgage. How could we have such vastly different experiences?”

It broke her heart. And when something breaks your heart, as her wife, Glennon Doyle, says, you find your people and do life-changing work.

Four years later, in July 2020, the NWSL announced Angel City FC as an expansion team with Wambach named to the star-studded ownership group. Athletes Unlimited, a player-driven company with women’s softball, volleyball and lacrosse leagues, counted Wambach on its board of advisers. Both organizations feature predominately female athletes.

And they’re not alone. When the COVID-19 pandemic forced sports shutdowns around the globe a year ago, there was worry it would set women’s sports back — again. Would priorities shift? They asked.

The answer does appear to be a yes. But not in the way initially feared. Viewership for women’s sports was up last summer even amid declines for the men because of better broadcast deals that actually make it easier to watch. It’s also because diehard and emerging fans alike have media outlets dedicated to women’s sports to promote them, discuss them and even do the obvious of designing a viewing schedule for them with information otherwise difficult to find. Just Women’s Sports (JWS), which partners with female athletes, did that and more after its 2020 launch. (JWS is also a media partner of Yahoo Sports.)

“I think that for women’s sports to really break through and become mainstream and be everything that we want it to be, we need women involved,” JWS CEO and co-founder Haley Rosen says. “They’re in the space, they know what this world is, they know how to authentically cover it. They know what feels real to them in their sport. And I think that’s really, really important.

“I think we just need to cover women’s sports for what they are because they’re awesome. And bringing the women in that are a part of this world, I think that’s going to be a huge part of that.”

To do all of this — grow expansion teams, cover those teams, launch a podcast, keep it all afloat — takes sponsorship money. And after years of calls for investment in a space on track for climbing revenues, businesses are finally making the move even amid a potential economic downturn.

Much of it comes down to women. Women are taking control and being the change they want to see in women’s sports from ownership to media companies to sponsorship opportunities.

Angel City FC set groundwork for women’s investments

Wambach was understandably curious when two-time Golden Globe winner Natalie Portman slid into her DMs last year and asked to chat.

“I don’t get very many direct messages from famous people,” Wambach told Yahoo Sports. “And I was like, sure, Natalie Portman? This feels weird.”

Portman was offering Wambach an opportunity to be part-owner of an expansion NWSL team. The predominantly female ownership group includes actresses and more than a dozen former USWNT players. The offer was an easy yes for Wambach, 40, who believes if the “opportunity was offered to anybody on the planet, they would say yes.”

“She’s sweet to say that,” ACFC co-founder and CEO Julie Uhrman told Yahoo Sports. "But we actually heard a lot of ‘no’s.'”

The standardly applied format for women’s sports is to take whatever the men are doing and copy it. What people are starting to come to terms with is that the same old rules don’t always apply from men’s leagues dating back a century to women’s only reaching a quarter of one.

ACFC is doing things differently, and Uhrman said that confused potential investors who couldn’t figure out the organization’s foundation. Yes, it is a sports team focused on success both on the pitch and in the pockets. It is also an organization built from the “Time's Up” movement that wants to do good for the world.

“You had to have somebody who understood and wanted to level the playing field and give exposure to great female athletes,” Uhrman said. “But also understood that they had a responsibility to leverage their platform and their voice to amplify what it is we are doing because that will raise both ships. So an investor needed to understand both sides of the equation.”

Uhrman got involved early because she played in a basketball league with the third co-founder, Kara Nortman. She’s been a member of male-dominated professions for decades and had to work harder than them to be “successful and seen.” It was the same feeling she had playing sports. Certainly a feeling other women in the ownership group hold.

“[It was] the idea that I could play a role to not only build a women’s professional team here in Los Angeles,” Uhrman said, “but also increase the awareness and amplify how incredible these women are on and off the [field]. And to be able to say that we should be seen as equals and we are just as talented and work just as hard and can be just as profitable. And I wanted to prove that that is possible.”

Uhrman thinks the timing is right given the success of the USWNT over the past decade. Its ownership model was revelatory and other NWSL teams have followed suit with famous athletes.

Tennis superstar Serena Williams is part of ACFC and Naomi Osaka bought a minority interest in the North Carolina Courage. Kendall Coyne Schofield, a two-time Olympic hockey gold medalist and the Chicago Blackhawks development coach, headlined a new Chicago Red Stars investment group announced March 1. Brittany Matthews, the fiancee of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, has a stake in the new Kansas City team, which was previously the Utah Royals.

It's a stark comparison to the standard older, rich white man owning a franchise. ACFC has clearly laid the groundwork for investing and ownership. And other leagues are seeing it the same. Renee Montgomery retired from the WNBA to buy into the Atlanta Dream ownership group, becoming the first former player to own a team.

Athletes in Wambach’s other venture are experiencing an ownership stake and playing simultaneously.

Athletes Unlimited gives power to players

The professional women’s sports timeline is a short one in the U.S.

The WNBA enters its 25th season this May as the longest-running professional league in the country. The NWSL is the longest-running soccer league at nine years after failed attempts in the 2000s.

Other sports have struggled to break through even given their popularity at the youth levels. Take women’s volleyball, the second-most popular sport for high school girls behind outdoor track and field. There have been three attempts at a professional league and all disbanded within two years.

“Having gone overseas and played over there, we’ve seen [a professional league] is possible,” Cassidy Lichtman, a gold medalist volleyball star with Team USA, told Yahoo Sports. “I think a lot of the myths around what people want to watch, and ‘Will they watch women’s sports? Will they watch volleyball?’ get broken a little bit when you go, ‘OK, well they're watching it everywhere else.’ So is it that people don't want to watch or is it that we haven’t put the money and the priority on it within the U.S.?”

Lichtman is the chair of the Player Executive Committee for the Athletes Unlimited volleyball league that launched last month. The company has three leagues (softball, volleyball and lacrosse) and doesn't use city-based teams to limit operating costs. The model is based on fantasy sports with individuals earning points and the top four serving as captains for the weekly draft.

Wambach is one of seven women, mostly athletes, on the advisory board.

“I think that if you look at women’s sports over 100 years — a century-long span — I think we’re still in the kind of early stages of building out what’s going to work and what won’t,” Wambach told Yahoo Sports. “Athletes Unlimited is a new and innovative approach to trying to solve this big problem. And also doing it for the right reasons. It’s not like they are trying to invest the right amount of money. They are trying to give these women the right kind of ownership to what they’re a part of.

“And then, of course, just giving women more opportunity. That’s so important. Giving women and showing them that women being represented at tables where big decisions are made is everything.”

That little aspect is meaningful. The women actually playing the games can be their own change. There’s no lobbying for better amenities or equal treatment. No doing something because that’s “the way it’s always been done.”

“It’s been incredible and so refreshing to be asked our opinion and to be given actual decision-making power in something that’s so important to us and that we have much knowledge on,” Lichtman said. “This isn’t even one step forward, it’s 100 steps forward in terms of how much our insights are included into the development of this league.”

Athletes Unlimited also had what other leagues have not: buy-in from media outlets and TV broadcast deals. Because as every single story about women’s sports will tell you: if you can’t see it, you can’t be it.

Tackling the tricky 4 percent problem

The beauty of the Just Women’s Sports podcast hosted by USWNT star Kelley O’Hara is that she never tells you that. There is no emphasis on asking what it’s like to be a woman in sports. It’s about what it’s like to be an athlete. Her conversations are fun, lively, intriguing and don’t miss on star power. For fans of women's sports, that's still rare.

“I’ve come to realize in life that if you want to see something happen, you can’t look around and expect someone else to do it. You have to be the one to do it,” O’Hara told Yahoo Sports shortly before the July 2020 premiere. “So for me it was like, if I want this to be better, if I want there to be better storytelling around athletes, I need to get involved.

“If we just leave it up to somebody else to do it, they’re going to do it their way.”

O’Hara did 20 episodes all remotely during the pandemic and many while she was playing in the NWSL 2020 Challenge Cup. She lets the guest tell the story and pokes deeper than the surface-level questions often emphasized when predominately male-focused shows have on a female athlete. In an episode with WNBA Players Association President Nneka Ogwumike, O’Hara compares the woman who had to be talked into going pro to the heralded leader we see on morning TV announcing a groundbreaking collective bargaining agreement.

Just Women’s Sports viewed a podcast as its flagship product after it launched a newsletter in January 2020 to curate women’s sports content for fans and ran into a problem.

“What we learned really quickly and what sort of launched the rest of the company is [that] 4 percent is nothing,” Rosen, who played at Stanford, told Yahoo Sports.

Though 44 percent of all sports participants are female, only 4 percent of media coverage goes to them. JWS is chipping into it with stories, the podcast and “The Soccer Show” that launched this month on YouTube.

“I’m living the day-in and day-out of being a female athlete, a professional female athlete, and not getting the coverage we deserve [like] not being able to turn on ESPN and see all the score lines or the highlights I want to see,” O’Hara said. “Haley roped me into this because she made me realize this is super important. And I believe in the mission that is Just Women’s Sports.”

USWNT superstar Alex Morgan, O'Hara's first guest on the podcast, is now a part of her own media company with four-time WNBA champion Sue Bird and Olympic gold medalists Chloe Kim (snowboarding) and Simone Manuel (swimming). Togethxr launched at the beginning of Women’s History Month and intends to bridge the coverage gap. Montgomery, the new Dream co-owner, also plans to continue her broadcast and podcast career she launched during the pandemic.

“I think one of the things about women’s sports is we’re not talked about enough on women’s platforms,” Montgomery said on a media call. “It’s not normally national media that cover women’s sports as I feel that they should. For me to be able to be in the media space, [I can] talk about the Dream and women’s sports and not even just the Dream, but the WNBA.”

All aim to give female athletes the proper coverage, and not a standard one-template-fits-every-female athlete cover.

“When we box female athletes in that way, the content is stale, it’s boring, it’s redundant,” Rosen said. “And we’re really reducing rich, interesting, thoughtful, innovative, great women to just being these one-dimensional things.”

Sponsorships grow with change in consumer habits

A deeply invested ownership group and lively podcast aren’t going to pay the bills alone. Teams and media outlets need money, and for decades, women’s sports haven’t had it.

Businesses strike sponsorship deals with the NFL and NBA for the brand recognition and increased revenue it can bring. Women’s sports, because of lack of investment from every angle, don’t have that same glean.

Yet consumers’ attitudes and buying habits are changing. The “official sponsor” of the NFL may be top of mind, but does it align with that customers’ values? Maybe not. Women’s sports realize this and are tapping into it.

Birdies, a footwear company founded in 2015, is the exclusive sleeve patch partner of ACFC, its first sports partnership. The choice was intentional by owners Bianca Gates and Marisa Sharkey, who were prompted by the pandemic rather than scared away because of its economic impact. They are working moms and experienced the disproportional toll it took on women so they wanted to support that segment anywhere they could.

“We took a different lens. Our mission is, how can we use our platform to lift up women?" Sharkey told Yahoo Sports. "And so last summer in the middle of the pandemic we thought, ‘OK, what is something that we can control in a time where everything feels like we can’t control anything?'”

They focused on rallying women to get out the vote. When they met with Uhrman shortly after the presidential election, it was perfect timing coming off that success. They also learned Angel City’s sponsorship model gives 10 percent of the revenue back to the community.

“When they see Angel City showing up in a meaningful way," Uhrman said, "that has nothing to do with packing a stadium or LED signage, but has to do with making real impact and creating an emotional connection and a relationship with customers, it is an incredibly unique proposition and proposal that we have that they’ve not heard from other brands."

Birdies launched to fill a void in the footwear industry and has a similar mission as ACFC. The families are also sports fans and watch the U.S. women's national team.

“We are so much better together. Our mission is to lift up all women. It’s almost impossible to do it alone, right?” Gates told Yahoo Sports. “To rally with another company whose mission is the same and we can work together, that is powerful. That is tremendously powerful.”

There are still more traditional sponsors getting into the women’s game. Budweiser became the first official beer sponsor of the NWSL in 2019 and launched a challenge for others to join. O’Hara, who famously received beer from fans at the 2019 World Cup ticker-tape parade, launched season two of her podcast by announcing Heineken as a sponsor.

“I think that that shows people from the outside, like, OK, our [podcast listener] numbers are great,” O’Hara told Yahoo Sports. “People want to be involved, they want to connect their name with Just Women’s Sports, with this podcast. Heineken being a big-time beer brand, I think it’s a great partnership.”

On an even bigger stage, the WNBA announced Glossier, who collaborated with them based on social justice work, as the official beauty partner of the league in a move that feels a long time coming. Why shouldn’t beauty products for women be marketed by a women’s league that has players using those products on the court every night?

What happens amid all this partnership is crossover interest between brand consumers and league fans in both directions. That creates more viewers, more purchasers, more interest, more investment.

The trickle-down effect in women’s sports

This isn’t a hot trend that will peter out. Women’s empowerment in the sports space has been growing for years and is seen daily as a collective. It takes a level of confidence and unity as a player or coach to publicly call out the NCAA for unequal treatment in the men’s and women’s basketball tournament bubbles. They couldn't have done that without women before them speaking out about inequity.

“People don’t understand when you give a woman an opportunity, the trickle-down effect is real,” Wambach told Yahoo Sports “So what they [Angel City FC founders] have found out is by offering these ownership shares to the very women who helped build women’s soccer in this country, they have recruited the strongest team that they possibly could recruit.

“What happens is when you give a woman an opportunity like that, all she wants to do is spend the rest of her life trying to pay you back. And that’s all we’re trying to do.”

Every woman Yahoo Sports talked to about a changing landscape spoke of an investment that went beyond money. These steps forward are passionate ones that continue to build upward. It’s the next step in correcting persistent problems. They can be the change they want rather than lobby for others to change it.

“Female athletes are invested in changing the space,” Rosen, who started JWS with four athlete partners, told Yahoo Sports. “And it’s just wild to me because they’re competing at the highest level [and] there’s so much pressure on them but they’re also thinking bigger picture: ‘How do we leave this space better for the next generation?’ Getting connected, getting these women involved — I’m not going to say it’s been easy but it’s been very natural for us. It feels like everyone wants to work together to make this space better.”

In an unprecedented year that was initially forecast to set women back a decade, they launched forward to set a better standard for decades to come.

Release Date: March 16, 2012
Directed by: Tony Kaye
Written by:  Carl Lund
Starring: Adrien Brody, Lucy Liu, Marcia Gay Harden, Christina Hendricks, Blythe Danner, James Caan, Bryan Cranston, Tim Blake Nelson, William Peterson

Tony Kaye has been pretty out of the picture since American History X, and after all the controversy that surrounded the movie, it’s not that surprising. While he’s worked on a few projects between then and now, he’s finally back with a bang of a film named Detachment.

The film follows three weeks in the lives of several high school teachers, administrators and students — most importantly of these is substitute teacher, Henry Barthes. During his time at this school, he interacts with those around him, including a young prostitute named Erika that Henry takes in, attempting to keep his distance. With each person he meets, Henry begins to lose his composure, finding the detached lifestyle he’s grown accustomed to unraveling little by little.

Most movies about the education system pretty much make everything about a savior teacher. Take for instance Dead Poets Society, Stand and Deliver, Freedom Writers, and even School of RockThe issue is that each of these films tries too hard to focus on the education system rather than on people themselves, and they’re usually predictable and happy.

Whether or not you’ve been placed into a public school system where no one really seems to care and the few who do are just being drowned in how futile their attempts seem to be, you can understand exactly what this film is going for. It’s a reminder that even when you try your hardest, there’s an enormous chance that things won’t work out the way you expect. There’s always some hope, but trying to hang on to that hope is the hardest thing to do.

Brody’s performance as Barthes is spectacular; clearly the best work he’s done since The Pianist. The way he interprets this character and brings out the darkness within him is impressive and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him snagging a Best Actor nomination this year (assuming this film even gets the recognition it deserves).

The supporting cast of school faculty is as colorful as can be, showing off the skills of Lucy Liu, Marcia Gay Harden, Christina Hendricks, Blythe Danner, and James Caan in small and simple segments that one wishes were expanded further. The two that surprise the most here are Caan and Liu — one with dark humor and the other with an intense breakdown. Even Bryan Cranston stands out in his two minutes of screen time.

For a first time screenplay by Carl Lund, one doesn’t expect something that goes as deep as Detachment does. It’s gritty, it’s real, and I’d even go as far as to say it deserves a longer runtime — maybe even an HBO miniseries to further develop these intriguing characters.

The blending of a documentary style and a straightforward film works out well. You can see how Tony Kaye is further developing his own style with Detachment, drawing from his past work in American History X and Lake of Fire

Rating: ★★★★¼

Just yer average twenty-something college student with no time on his hands who ends up watching (and writing) too many movies and shows for his own good.

  1. definitely wanna see this

    “It’s gritty, it’s real, and I’d even go as far as to say it deserves a longer runtime — maybe even an HBO miniseries to further develop these intriguing characters.”

    I did enjoyed Detachment, but this is pretty much why I wouldn’t rate it too high as you did (your review is still pretty good). It started out gritty, but loses some of its grittyness halfway through and then recovers it.

    Adrien Brody and Sami Gayle (the actress playing as Erika) were really good to watch, but a good chunk of the characters weren’t fully developed, with the execption of Lucy Liu and James Caan, who barely did much with Brody / their respective characters were more like a side story. Yet, both were great with their storylines.

    Wished this film premiered months ago during the awards season. I would put it ahead of Descendants, Moneyball, War Horse and ELAIC. As for 2012, I think this will be lost in the shuffle.

    Hope to see Tony Kaye doing more films.

There is a little one thing for everyone, from tropical all-inclusive motels to cozy mountain getaways. Searching Groupon’s air-inclusive trip page for affordable trips to tropical locations can yield some great outcomes.

Couple that with $200 airfare onto the island from Miami, and also you’ve received your self a 4-night time tropical getaway, complete with flights, for lower than $500 per person.

From what I can see, Ocho Rios has quite good snorkeling, even better than nearby Montego Bay. As you may know, Ochi is about ninety minutes from the Montego Bay Airport alongside the north coast, and there are quite a couple of large all-in resorts along there.

More than anywhere else in Costa Rica, Manuel Antonio is right for guests of all ages. Manuel Antonio National Park, Manuel Antonio’s paradise seashores, and the massive variety of family pleasant activities and excursions attraction to households from the world over.

YNPN Triangle NC Leadership: Chanae Wilson

Chanae Wilson, Vice Chair

How long have you been a member of YNPN leadership? What have your roles been?

I've been on the board since the end of 2018. I was the programming co-chair until the end of 2020 and I am now the Vice Chair.

What draws you to the nonprofit sector?

Nonprofits strengthen communities by meeting the need/people where they are at. The sector plays a vital role in building and working with communities to provide critical services that contribute to economic stability and mobility. I am committed to ensuring everyone in North Carolina has the opportunity to live healthy and prosperous lives.

What drew you to join the YNPN Board of Directors?

I had been interacting with YNPN through their national conference and programming events. I received an email from the newsletter and thought, "why not". I was looking for ways to build my knowledge in the Nonprofit sector and grow as a leader.

Why is Black leadership in the nonprofit sector so important?

Nonprofits often work in communities that are facing issues rooted in systemic racism. Each employee should have a foundational knowledge of the challenges these communities face. When you look at Nonprofit organizations, their staff typically does not reflect the community and experiences of the people they hope to serve. We need all kinds of people to move the work forward, but the people directly impacted often do not rise as the leaders who drive the strategy to solve these pressing issues. If the current leaders have never faced the kind of challenges that come with being BIPOC in an impoverished community, how can they pave the way for change in these same communities? It is essential to have leaders from the BIPOC community to drive the change the sector hopes to see.

What's it been like leading a nonprofit throughout 2020 to today? Do you think there is anything positive, for you personally/professionally or for the industry at large, that's come out of the struggle of the last 13 months?

At times it can be scary and uncomfortable, but mostly it has been an experience of amazing growth and constant learning. I don't think any of us could have anticipated 2020 would have looked the way it did, but my team was gracious, adaptable, and up for the challenge. We took things one day at a time.

When your time on the YNPN BoD has come to a close, what do you want your legacy to be?

The group of folks I've worked with have been so intentional in creating a healthy culture where voices are heard and everyone feels included. We also set a solid foundation for the organization's long term sustainability.

 Ravi Kumar finishes last, Istvan Peni wins gold | YoGems

Ravi Kumar finishes last, Istvan Peni wins gold in ISSF World Cup Final shooting

October 26, 2017

ISSF World Cup

Reference: http://www.hindustantimes.com/other-sports/ravi-kumar-finishes-last-istvan-peni-wins-gold-in-issf-world-cup-final-shooting/story-M170Uq4UcYiNdeQIiI8nQK.html

India’s Ravi Kumar failed to break the jinx, finishing eighth in the final of men’s 10m air rifle on the second day of the World Cup Final at the Dr Karni Singh Shooting Ranges on Wednesday.

In February this year, Kumar had finished at the same position in the final of the season opening World Cup here.

In the Munich World Cup in May, the Indian shooter finished fifth.

It was Kumar’s third final of the season, and there were expectations. He was steady in the qualification round, scoring 623.9 to end fifth, making cut for the final. The top eight enter the medal round.

Kumar started the final round on a promising note. His first shot of the five-shot series fetched 10.5. But he missed the inner circle in his fourth shot, scoring just 9.2. The error proved costly as he slipped down from fourth to the bottom place among eight.

“It was a bad day. I wasn’t able to recover from a bad shot,” he said after the match. His personal coach Manoj Kumar too looked disappointed. “There is no scope of error in the final,” he added.

Twenty-year-old Istvan Peni of Hungary claimed gold with a world junior record of 249.8 points.

Peni, who despite being a junior often competes in the senior category, displayed steady shooting that helped him win the title in his first World Cup Final appearance. Vitali Bubnovich of Belarus won silver with a score of 249.5.

In fact, both the top two shooters were neck and neck in the closing stages and the gold was decided on the last shot, with Peni scoring 10.0. Bubnovich shot 9.9 to settle for second spot.

Peni’s more seasoned team-mate Peter Sidi won bronze with a total of 228.5.
