The Princess and The Platypus Foundation Presents The Princess Diana Museum

The largest collection of Princess Diana's personal historical items in the world currently on display, online 24/7. The only Diana online museum that contains over 1,700 carefully curated iconic, personal and historical artifacts spanning Diana's lifetime from early childhood through her tragic death. Displayed in a 3D interactive environment, the artifacts depict her incredible life and reveal her enduring legacy.

Once inside the museum, a real time location map and virtual avatars will guide you through the museum in English or Spanish. An exclusive community chat and video feature will enable visitors to share experiences in real time to create a sense of belonging. In addition, over 40 exclusive interviews with Diana's friends, designers, artists and closest collaborators will give you a unique insight of one of the biggest icons in modern history. We hope this virtual journey will unite people from all around the world and inspire a desire to treat others with kindness and to help others while expecting nothing in return just as Princess Diana once did.

"With the sudden rise of COVID-19 virus forcing us to practice 'social distancing,' we are making access to Princess Diana's Museum completely free for one month. This will not only help take people's minds off of all the bad news out there but it will help them connect with each other since users can interact in the museum environment and give back in Diana's honor", Renae Plant and Livinio Stuyck founders at The Princess & The Platypus Foundation said.

The museum works perfectly with your internet broadband connection, any operating system PC/Mac/iOS/ Android on any popular desktop, laptop or tablet internet browser. Mobile phones are not supported due to the large extent of graphical elements and information rendered.

Dressing Like a Million Bucks: How Looking Good Can Affect Your Poker Game

When you walk into a room, one of the first things that people tend to notice is how you’re dressed. Looking sharp and well groomed will give you an instant confidence boost and guarantee your welcome in almost any room. In the world of poker, this is no different. In our article on ‘How to Achieve 'Understated Elegance' in 3 Simple Steps’, we describe how going for simple and classic clothes that fit you well is guaranteed to hit the mark. Less is also more when it comes to accessories as well as hair and grooming. With these tips in mind, you’ll help ensure that you’re physically and mentally ready for your next poker game.

While poker used to be a casual pastime often enjoyed at home via online platforms, many of the high profile tournaments nowadays are very much glamorous social events held in the very best gaming establishments across the world. Yahoo’s article on ‘How PPPoker is Bringing a New Social Dynamic to Poker’ outlines how the game has increased in popularity throughout the years due to a combination of community-based technologies and high-profile major events. In more ways than one, this trend has encouraged some players to be more conscious about how they look, act, and dress.

Over time, clothing trends have come and gone. Men’s Fashion Magazine describes how the cowboy look was popular in poker games in the past due to the game being “dominated by strong manly types from the Southwest”. More recently, sports jerseys, football caps, and comfortable outfits have become the norm due to the long hours players have stay at the tables. On the other hand, more stylish types choose to wear blazers or smart casual outfits, including business suits with sharp shoes and a tie. Other accessories include oversized headphones, which can also help keep your head in the game. The typical poker pro tends to wear sunglasses, baseball hats, hoodies, or masks and facial hair to hide much of their facial expressions. Alternatively, others who are more disruptive want to dress a little off-kilter to strategically confuse their opponents.

However, dressing well can eventually land you a sponsorship deal and help you become a part of the big leagues. In Forbes’ article on ‘How to Get to The World Series of Poker Final Table’, Chad Holloway, 2013 WSOP bracelet winner, states that getting to the final table means that apart from players winning seven-figures in prize money, “many become poker celebrities and are considered big names for years to come. There are also sponsorship opportunities (much less than in years past though),” which means that as well as upping your game, you should try to dress well to catch a sponsor’s eye.

Finally, no matter how you decide to dress for your next poker game, always make sure you’re comfortable in your own skin. Inc mentions the concept of thin-slicing, which is defined as the process of analyzing visual details instantaneously. The first impression you make when you sit down at that poker table will instantly affect how other players view you, so it’s up to you to project a confident and cool exterior to match your game.

Photo Recap: Doggies on the BeltLine

Doggies on the Beltline was a huge success. The well-attended doggie parade and costume contest is a product of Doggies on the Catwalk (DOTC). The organization’s founder, Fashionado’s E. Vincent Martinez wanted to create a family-friendly event for the community and dressing adorable pups in Halloween costumes for a Sunday afternoon party was the perfect way to do so. Well over 100 dogs and twice as many humans marched down the Atlanta Beltline and ended with a big doggie party at Piedmont Park.

A huge thanks goes out to DOTC Foundation sponsors: Atlanta Pet Life Magazine, Harry Norman Intown Office and Piedmont Bark.

THE 144th ANNUAL WESTMINSTER KENNEL CLUB DOG SHOW EXPANDS TO THREE DAYS IN 2020

“king” Best In Show 2019

The Westminster Kennel Club will expand its iconic dog show to include an additional third day of breed judging at Pier 94 in New York City. The Westminster Week celebration of dogs will kick off on Saturday, Feb. 8, with the Masters Agility Championship followed by the 144th Annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on Feb. 9-11, 2020.

Westminster will continue its annual benched dog show tradition, which offers the public an opportunity to meet and greet nearly 3,000 dogs of 205 breeds and varieties. In 2020, this will include an extra dog show day on Sunday, Feb. 9, at Pier 94. Spectators will now have a weekend opportunity to interact with hundreds of dogs and watch top show dogs vie for a chance to compete in the Groups, which will be held during the evening at Madison Square Garden on Monday, Feb. 10 and Tuesday, Feb. 11, 2020.

For 2020, Westminster welcomes a newly eligible breed, the Azawakh, to the competition. Originally from the West African nations of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, this guardian and hunter has a long history as a companion to nomads of the region. The Westminster Best of Breed winning Azawakh will make history as the first in its breed to compete in the Hound Group at Madison Square Garden. To learn more about this African sighthound, please visit the Media Center or the Azawakh breed page on Westminsterkennelclub.org.

"We are thrilled to offer dog lovers another day to meet top canine competitors from around the world," Westminster Director of Communications Gail Miller Bisher said. “Westminster looks forward to continuing its tradition of celebrating purpose-bred dogs, and their owners, breeders, and exhibitors, by sharing their heartwarming stories and highlighting their achievements in dog sports.”

There are a variety of ticket options on sale now at westminsterkennelclub.org. Also, find a quick reference guide to Westminster event tickets here.

UPDATES: The Westminster Kennel Club welcomes 204 breeds and varieties among 2,630 entries from 49 states and 19 other countries to its expanded three-day dog show featuring the top three breeds per day—Dachshunds, Poodles, and Golden Retrievers—at Pier 94 in New York City from Sunday to Tuesday, Feb. 9-11, 2020. America’s longest continuously held dog show culminates with Best in Show awarded Tuesday evening during the live three-hour broadcast on FS1 from Madison Square Garden. 

Westminster Week kicks off with the Masters Agility Championship on Saturday, Feb. 8, 2020 with 330 entries followed by the iconic, all-breed, benched dog show including the Junior Showmanship competition with 108 entries. The Masters Obedience Championship with 22 entries will be held on Sunday, Feb. 9, 2020.

Dachshunds dominate on Sunday with 55 entries (all varieties) during the Hound breeds judging. Historically bred to hunt badgers because of their tenacious hunting spirit and good nose, today’s dogs excel at assisting police with tracking duties and competing with their owners in Earthdog events.  

Poodles are paramount on Monday with 43 entries (all varieties) during the Non-Sporting and Toy breeds judging. Originally purpose-bred as a retrieving water dog, the Poodle still retains that job today as well as being a wonderful companion and superstar in the Obedience and Agility rings. 

Golden Retrievers grab the top spot on Tuesday with 48 entries during the Sporting breeds judging. Preservation breeders of this traditional bird hunter and field worker are maintaining the breed’s unique characteristics which make them valuable in today’s society as heroes in search-and-rescue work, amazing comfort dogs in the aftermath of tragedy, and brilliant guide dogs for the blind. 

Joining the Westminster roster of breeds for the first time is the Azawakh with 6 entries. This slender sighthound and ancient companion of desert-roaming nomads will debut on Sunday during the Hound breeds judging.

3 Ways to Stay Healthy as You Age

Growing older is inevitable, but this doesn’t mean your health has to decline at the same time. If you are healthy and active now, you have a better chance of staying this way as you age. While there may be unexpected bumps along the road to getting older, but there plenty of things that you can do to make sure that you have as smooth a ride as possible.

1.    Stay Active

This goes without saying, but as you get older, you will more than likely feel tired more often and this can cause you to become stagnant and avoid exercise, which can be detrimental to your health.

You must combat this growing tiredness if you want to be as healthy as you can be as you age, but you should also know your limits. Take walks in the park, golf with friends, and if you enjoy the gym, make sure to keep going to your heart’s content.

There are plenty of ways you can exercise and stay active that can fit around your lifestyle, even as it changes as you age.

2.    Get Regular Check-Ups

Keeping a healthy relationship with your doctor is beneficial as you get older. As you might expect, most people encounter more health problems as they age than at any other period of their life.

If you keep your doctor in the know about your body, they will be able to catch things before they develop and provide you with the best possible treatment available. Several times a year is enough to keep them up to date with how you’re feeling and any changes you might be experiencing.

3.    Maintain Your Hormone Balance

As you age, your body may start to produce less testosterone or estrogen. With hormone balances out of sync, your body can start to ache, fatigue, and make you feel generally low. These symptoms can put a great stress on your daily life and bring down your quality of life as well; however, if you seek hormone replacement therapy you can keep these symptoms under control, bring your body back to its optimum hormone level and live a better and healthier life overall.

Some symptoms of aging are inevitable and must be endured as a part of life, but hormone imbalances are not one of them!

One of the best ways to stay healthy as you age is to embrace it. No one stays young forever, and it can negatively impact your mental health if you think that way; after all, a few grey hairs or a head full of them never hurt anybody.

As long as you continue to look after your body by eating well and being active and listening to it when it needs treatment, you should age as gracefully as ever. There is no harm or shame in accepting that you are aging and that your body’s needs are changing as you grow older. After all, it is just another stage of life to enjoy.

Party for Piedmont Park September 5, 2019

Every morning around 7:30am, eight men wearing “Piedmont Park Conservancy” imprinted on their chest set out on golf carts, trucks and mowers to tackle the 200 plus acres of beautiful Piedmont Park. Standing from any Piedmont Park gate looking in, anywhere your eyes can see is likely to be impacted by the Piedmont Park Conservancy. Whether you love to visit the Dog Parks, play in the playgrounds, shop at the Green Market, attend camp, splash in the Legacy Fountain, or jog around the running track, you can see the efforts of this hardworking team.

The Conservancy is now celebrating their 30th anniversary at the fall fundraiser, Party for Piedmont Park! While Party for Piedmont Park is one of the most important events benefitting the Piedmont Park Conservancy, it is also a joyful celebration of the life of Piedmont Park. Great food, drinks, music, and auction items all contribute to a wonderful evening of support.

Pop the champagne and turn on the music, because the Conservancy and over 500 friends are going to have a night to remember. Guests will arrive at Greystone, a gorgeous venue hall with original granite walls overlooking the pool and Lake Clara Meer. Then, attendees will be treated to an open bar, restaurant tastings from Atlanta’s premier spots, and an opportunity to snap a picture at the photo booth. Dance through the decades with DJ BIGG H and Ricardo Spicer of Amp’d Entertainment. Finally, check out a live drawing by The Sketch Effect and an experience-based auction spreading across the venue.

Many Atlantans don’t realize that Piedmont Park is much too large for just city support. The Piedmont Park Conservancy must raise over $3.5 million each year and rely on over 10,000 hours from volunteers to preserve and enhance beautiful Piedmont Park. Support your park by attending the Party for Piedmont Park on September 5, 2019! CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS!
