Should IT Vendors Fear the Open Compute Project?
Mark A Campbell, Trace3
February 10, 2014
Hey, what is the Open Compute Project (OCP)? OCP is a YAOST (“Yet Another Open-Source Thingme” – my term). Spear-headed by Facebook, OCP aims to provide open specifications for how to build all the stuff people stick in data centers. A bit ambitious for sure, but since its 2011 launch, a large OCP community has grown up around the concept of stripping down infrastructure components to their bare rudiments and reaping lower costs.
Why are OCP products cheaper? As an example, the x86 OCP server is 24% cheaper and draws 38% less power than its traditional counterpart because it strips out all unnecessary accoutrements like sexy faceplates, custom brackets and unused/unwanted proprietary applications and agents. One Facebook study found that faceplates alone require an extra 28 watts per rack just to pull cooling air through.
OK, but what does OCP make? Well, just specifications, really:
- Servers & Motherboards – Both x86 & ARM
- Storage – Cold storage, high density, flash and high capacity variants
- Racks – with massive intra-rack data rates and scaling
- Data Centers – Facebook just built one in Oregon with a 1.07 PEU!
- Networking – small, cheap and wicked fast top-of-rack switch
Many vendors are providing “whitebox” products built to OCP specifications for VM farms, VDI, Hadoop, cold storage and bulk cloud capacity.
What are the challenges to OCP? An OCP customer has to work with a posse of smaller whitebox cowboys as opposed to just calling in Sherriff Big Blue.
Once the equipment arrives, there is additional rack and cable work.
Since OPC was born out of the hyper-scaled world, its design decisions lean towards providing greater efficiencies at larger scales which reduces savings when implemented in smaller enterprises.
There are also questions of support, compatibility and OCP compliance with whitebox vendors. With a traditional vendor you pay more but get a handy 1-800-WRING-MY-NECK number in case something breaks or doesn’t meet specs. Not necessarily so with some whitebox vendors.
So why are companies adopting OCP? The number of adopters is growing steadily as OCP becomes a mainstream approach to commoditized infrastructure. Many of the obstacles to OCP adoption are being overcome:
- The “some assembly required” labor is decreasing as richer pre-fab bundling options evolve.
- Even the “one neck to wring” support issue is being avoided as many OCP adopters switch to a “ready spares” model instead of the traditional support contract, saving them even more.
- OCP has a list of approved vendors and is creating a certification program to guarantee whitebox products adhere to the OCP specifications (there is a job opening on their site for a Director of Certification – know anyone?)
Adopters are also using OCP as a catalyst for co-migrations such as physical to virtual, Windows to Linux and monolithic databases to virtual open-source alternatives.
Should vendors be afraid? The honest answer is the old consultants’ favorite – “Well, it depends”.
Some traditional vendors are jumping on the bandwagon and they will likely do well working both sides of the fence.
Still other specialty products, like core switches, backup servers, and specialized security devices, are currently outside the scope of OCP – but the keyword is “currently”. Longer term OCP plans could target these areas as well.
Today’s traditional vendors are not too worried about OCP. But this could change quickly for one simple reason; OCP allows customers to disrupt big vendor lock-in! Big IT vendors who have been “buying the stack” are raising the ante with their customers when ELA time comes around. OCP provides a very powerful stack of poker chips that innovative IT departments can use to re-raise the pot-odds back in their favor. Expect them to use it.
It is still early days and things are changing fast – two recent examples; IBM dumped its x86 server business due projected margin pressure from competition like OCP and ever-proprietary Microsoft just joined OCP and added their cloud server specs to the fray. So this will be a fun game to watch in the coming months. Keep an eye out for future blogs on OCP.
Footnote: Every OCP blurb ever written has felt obligated to mention OCP’s thought leader, Frank Frankovsky. I am no different. If you don’t know him, do a quick search and check out his 1974 Dennis Ritchie-esque beard – a good omen methinks.
If you don’t know who Dennis Ritchie is, well then … just grep –ir “Ritchie” * | sort

Reviewed by: Mojomums reviewer Katie
What they say: This funny, stylish slider book is sure to give little ones a giggle. They’ll love joining in with a game of hide-and-seek as they move the sliders to reveal the lion hiding in every scene. Is it in the restaurant? Or at the hairdresser’s? Just push the slider to find out!
With beautiful artwork from google doodler Lydia Nichols, all the family will enjoy reading and playing with this fresh new novelty series.
What we say: “I read this book with my 2 year old and we absolutely loved it! It is the kind of book you can read over and over again. I can’t wait for my almost 6 year old to read it with his little brother and baby sister in the not too distant future.
From the beginning right to the end the book is vibrant in colour and exciting. The book allows the reader an adventure to locate the lion hiding somewhere in the book. The sliders on each page are well made and difficult to break, which is great when you have a toddler handling the book!
The repetitive nature of the book will enable a toddler to finish off the sentence and it will definitely become a well read and favourite for night time reading.
Overall a fantastic story and I absolutely must go and search out the other book in the series!”
I Thought I Saw A Lion is available from many good book stores and online from Amazon.

“…the first taste affects all the members of the body: two spoonfuls of this last liquor is a sufficient dose; and if any man should exceed this, it would presently stop his breath, and endanger his life.”
Its fearsome reputation came from a unique quadruple distillation – the extra two distillations increasing the purity of the spirit while raising the strength to 90% ABV.
Aquavit, vodka, eau-de-vie, usquebaugh all mean ‘water of life’ for in mediaeval times of disease and plague alchemists believed, with good reason, that high strength alcohol was a life preserver.
The new spirit X4 was recreated in 2008 by distilling director Jim McEwan at Islay’s Bruichladdich distillery, before being reduced to a less perilous 50% ABV at bottling. “X4 has loads of flavour, it’s no mere vodka substitute. It’s the original usquebaugh, the spirit of the Vikings that our forefathers knew. They didn’t wait to mature it, nor did we. It’s a little bit of history – so savour the flavour.”

Effects of Lactation on Post-Partum Amenorrhoea: Re-Estimation Using Data from a Longitudinal Study in Guatemala
In this paper we re-estimate the effects of breastfeeding patterns on the timing of resumption of menses after controlling for maternal nutrition and maternal stressor variables. The analysis shows that simple hazard models, used on data from a longitudinal study in Guatemala, provide estimates of effects on timing of resumption of menstruation that are (a) comparable to others discussed in the recent literature and (b) generally consistent with hypotheses relating patterns of lactation, maternal nutritional status, and maternal stressors to processes that accelerate (decelerate) resumption of anovulatory cycles

It is important to get a scalable hosting solution if you would like to run your online business successfully.

Shared web hosting is vulnerable to attacks and will not scale well if your site get a lot of traffic. Speed will also be affected. The support may depend on the platform you choose. HostGator or Blue Host will offer good support.
Virtual Private servers:
Those websites which need to scale quickly can depend on the Virtual private server which is among the reliable web hosting solutions and one can get more than 100,000 visitors to their site. There is high security but if one site is hacked yours may be vulnerable as well. You may need to trade scaling for speed though this server is designed for scaling. The drawback is there is no WordPress support. However, there will be many tools for a lot of platforms.
This server will be dedicated completely to your needs and your data will be secured as this will be your own server. Dedicated web hosting server will scale quickly like the new servers and there will be no speed loss. One will get experienced server support too and similar tools like VPN will be offered.
This is among the best server choice for hosting. Scaling will be ten times faster and WordPress engine will serve the page quickly as caching systems are built by hand. Support will be offered to optimize the WordPress site and if you are running a WordPress site then yopu must consider the managed server hosting for best results.
So, analyze your online business needs and depending on it select the best web hosting server for your website to get exemplary business benefits online and complete peace of mind too.

As if destroying a country and its culture ain’t bad enough, how about destroying its future, its children? I want to scream it from the rooftops! We are complicit in crimes of such enormity that I find it difficult to find the words to describe how I feel about this crime committed in my name! In the name of the ‘civilized’ world?
“Forget about oil, occupation, terrorism or even Al-Qaeda. The real hazard for Iraqis these days is cancer. Cancer is spreading like wildfire in Iraq. Thousands of infants are being born with deformities. Doctors say they are struggling to cope with the rise of cancer and birth defects, especially in cities subjected to heavy American and British bombardment.” — Jalal Ghazi, for New America Media
According to Dahr Jamail, “The U.S. and British militaries used more than 1,700 tons of depleted uranium in Iraq in the 2003 invasion (Jane’s Defence News, 4/2/04)-on top of 320 tons used in the 1991 Gulf War (Inter Press Service, 3/25/03). Literally every local person I’ve ever spoken with in Iraq during my nine months of reporting there knows someone who either suffers from or has died of cancer.
Ghazi reported that in Fallujah, which bore the brunt of two massive U.S. military operations in 2004, as many as 25 percent of newborn infants have serious physical abnormalities. Cancer rates in Babil, an area south of Baghdad, have risen from 500 cases in 2004 to more than 9,000 in 2009. Dr. Jawad al-Ali, the director of the Oncology Center in Basra, told Al Jazeera English (10/12/09) that there were 1,885 cases of cancer in all of 2005; between 1,250 and 1,500 patients visit his center every month now. — ‘The New ‘Forgotten’ War’ By Dahr Jamail, 15 March, 2010
Even the BBC was forced to acknowledge the reality (Listen: ‘Child deformities ‘increasing’ in Falluja’ 4 March, 2010). True to form I searched the BBC Website in vain for the video clip I watched last week, so you are spared the horrific scenes I witnessed, recorded in Fallujah’s main hospital. Had this been Saddam’s legacy, we would have seen images like the one above endlessly repeated in the mass media, complete with UN resolutions and the like.
The short piece posted on the BBC Website ends thus:
“In a statement, the Pentagon said that “No studies to date have indicated environmental issues resulting in specific health issues. Unexploded ordinance, including improvised explosive devises, are a recognised hazard.””
End of story as far as the BBC is concerned. So how come this isn’t a headline? Even Stop the War Coalition barely mentions it, more concerned it seems with the plight of imperialism’s warriors, Britain’s warriors who have shooting this foul stuff at not only Iraq’s innocents but at the innocents of the former Yugoslavia and Afghanistan. But then we are the citizens of Empire which explains why Stop the War has little or nothing to say on the subject.
“When they said that depleted uranium was the US empire’s weapon of choice, they lied. The word “depleted” is a public relations spin. It makes it sound like the nuclear material is worn out. It’s not. It’s Uranium. Let’s just call it Uranium. In other words, DU is low-level nuclear waste. DU can also contain trace amounts of “neptunium, plutonium, americium, technitium-99 and uranium-236.” — http://tuberose.com/
British and US government statements that Depleted Uranium is a ‘conventional’ weapon are contradicted by the facts:
Depleted uranium (DU) weaponry meets the definition of weapon of mass destruction in two out of three categories under U.S. Federal Code Title 50 Chapter 40 Section 2302.
Since 1991, the U.S. has released the radioactive atomicity equivalent of at least 400,000 Nagasaki bombs into the global atmosphere. That is 10 times the amount released during atmospheric testing which was the equivalent of 40,000 Hiroshima bombs. The U.S. has permanently contaminated the global atmosphere with radioactive pollution having a half-life of 2.5 billion years.
The U.S. has illegally conducted four nuclear wars in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and twice in Iraq since 1991, calling DU “conventional” weapons when in fact they are nuclear weapons.
DU on the battlefield has three effects on living systems: it is a heavy metal “chemical” poison, a “radioactive” poison and has a “particulate” effect due to the very tiny size of the particles that are 0.1 microns and smaller.
The blueprint for DU weaponry is a 1943 Manhattan Project memo to Gen. L. Groves that recommended development of radioactive materials as poison gas weapons – dirty bombs, dirty missiles and dirty bullets.
DU weapons are very effective kinetic energy penetrators, but even more effective bioweapons since uranium has a strong chemical affinity for phosphate structures concentrated in DNA.
DU is the Trojan Horse of nuclear war – it keeps giving and keeps killing. There is no way to clean it up, and no way to turn it off because it continues to decay into other radioactive isotopes in over 20 steps.
Terry Jemison at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs stated in August 2004 that over 518,000 Gulf-era veterans (14-year period) are now on medical disability, and that 7,039 were wounded on the battlefield in that same period. Over 500,000 U.S. veterans are homeless.
In some studies of soldiers who had normal babies before the war, 67 percent of the post-war babies are born with severe birth defects – missing brains, eyes, organs, legs and arms, and blood diseases.
In southern Iraq, scientists are reporting five times higher levels of gamma radiation in the air, which increases the radioactive body burden daily of inhabitants. In fact, Iraq, Yugoslavia and Afghanistan are uninhabitable.
Cancer starts with one alpha particle under the right conditions. One gram of DU is the size of a period in this sentence and releases 12,000 alpha particles per second. — http://tuberose.com/
So come on all you allegedly civilized people, what are you going to about it?
PS: Oh, I forgot about the DU weapons supplied to Israel by the US, also dropped on the people of Gaza.

What are other people saying about Ahead of the Game?
Andrea Fogarty, Black Dog Institute
"I've loved working on the Ahead of the Game project with this dedicated team. If you're interested in developing your resilience, the Your Path to Success in Sport workshop has some great ideas and I have personally learned so much from working through the online exercises. One thing that has stayed with me is the idea that when things are tough, you can stop, notice your initial reaction, and then try to reframe any negative ideas into possible solutions. I highly recommend all of the programs - though I am a bit biased!"

Connecticut delegation ‘outraged’ at postal facility closings
Connecticut’s congressional delegation, including the four federal legislators who represent Shelton in Washington, are blasting a U.S. Postal Service (USPS) decision to close two facilities in southern Connecticut this year. They said the closure, to take place a year earlier than previously expected, will impact 1,200 jobs.
The state’s all-Democratic delegation also blamed the expedited closure of two mail-sorting operations on Republicans in Congress, and vowed to work to reverse the decision.
Stamford and Wallingford facilities
In a joint statement, the U.S. senators and congressmen expressed their strong disappointment in the decision by USPS to speed up closure of the Wallingford and Stamford postal processing facilities. The closures, which were originally scheduled for next year, will now take place this year.
“We are outraged at the Postal Service’s decision to close the Wallingford and Stamford processing facilities an entire year earlier than the original deadline,” the statement said. “Closing these facilities will impact nearly 1,200 jobs, reneging on a promise to the employees and communities that these facilities would remain open during this year to allow enough time to reform the Postal Service and assess if these closures are fiscally prudent.
“For years,” they continued, “our delegation has been calling for action on real reforms to get the Postal Service back on a sound fiscal footing, and now a failure to act by the House Republican leadership means jobs lost and livelihoods threatened.”
Will work to change the decision
In the statement, the legislators said they committed “both to reversing this decision, preventing further closures, and to ensuring that Connecticut residents do not experience delays in mail delivery.”
The statement said while the USPS must make changes to avoid fiscal problems, this will require a comprehensive plan.
“USPS is correct in one respect: it cannot sustain itself under the current system,” the legislators said. “But unilateral action is not the answer. Congress must pass a comprehensive plan that addresses the challenges facing the Postal Service and continue to provide affordable, accessible service to every address in the country.”
Who represents Shelton in Congress
Shelton is divided between two congressional districts — the Third District represented by Rosa DeLauro, and the Fourth District represented by Jim Himes.
It also is represented by U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy. The state’s other congressmen are Joe Courtney, Elizabeth Esty and John Larson.

I was in my ancestral home of Michigan last week for a little r&Ur. It was nice. Got to do some nice stuff. See some stars for instance. Got to see a couple of those. They’re pretty neat. I recommend checking some out if you ever find yourself where you’re not being constantly assaulting your senses. I also went to church. It was the first time in a long time, and I have to say still not a fan.
1: Know what religion you are!!!
The church we were at was a Lutheran one. Fine. But halfway thorough the church service they had a thing where they did first communion. I know what you’re thinking. That’s a catholic thing. But for some reason they did it in the wrong church, and I have no idea why. I wanted to stand up and yell, "wrong church idiots", but since I was the guest I decided not to embarrass the church man.
2: Let’s fucking cool it with the songs
We sang a bunch of songs. I don’t blame the pastor. I can see why you’d want to kill some time, but it's not like these folks were having fun with it. Part of the problem is song selection. There’s way too many. The song book we were working with had 720 different songs. That’s too high. On some level I guess variety might be a good thing, but most of these songs are garbage. The Beatles only have 275 songs. There is absolutely no reason for there to be more church songs than Beatles songs. Pair that down to the best of the best, a Blue and Red album of church songs. Let’s say you sing three different songs a week. 52 weeks a year. I’ll even add two. One service for Christmas and another for Christmas eve. That’s 54 services. Threes songs a session. So all you need is the best 162 songs. I don’t care how you do it, but take the rest of these horse shit songs and throw them the fuck away. Put them in a separate book and burn it. For old times sake.
3: Don’t be so scary please.
At one point the pastor took all the children aside in front and talked to them in front of everyone. He asked them what the point of a drivers license was. He let the kids guess for a minute then told them the answer he was looking for. He said it was for identification. He then made a little joke about how he used his to “do adult things.” Okay. Little inappropriate for the kiddies, but I appreciate the joke for the back of the room. I was wondering what this had to do with Jesus until he brought it together in the most horrific way imaginable. He said that Jesus needed identification too, but his wasn’t a drivers license it was his “gaping spear wounds in his side.” Yikes. He then ushered the kids out of there for a Sunday school class that was probably a lot of crying.
4: Cupholders in the pews
This should be an obvious one. Why has this not happened yet? As a mug I had once said "you don't want to see me before I've had my coffee." That goes for you too G*d! Come on church, let's get on this.
I don't know if church will take any of my ideas. I certainly don't plan on listening to them in being a globetrotting comedian. But here's hoping, for their own sake, that they take a serious look at a few of these.
All in all, I give church a D+

Investigation of left-handed meta material in microstrip antenna application Abstract The speculation and invention of left-handed metamaterial (LH MTM) had sparked the interest of many researchers globally and was said to help increase the gain and directivity of the microstrip antenna. Therefore, the scope of this project was to design, simulate a LH MTM structure in order to proof the claims. The combination of the square rectangular split ring and the thin wire structure was used to obtain the negative value of permeability, mu and the negative permittivity, epsiv. From the simulation done, the gain of the antenna has been increased to 1 dB. This had proven that the focusing effect of the LH MTM really enhance the gain of the antenna.

From the Brink: As part of a regular series featuring content from BRINK, Jason Rao of the American Society for Microbiology and David Silbey of Cornell University discuss the importance of collaboration between governments and NGOs in containing a disease outbreak.
The 2014 outbreak of Ebola in the countries of West Africa quickly became a global health crisis. Ebola symptoms often did not manifest for three weeks after exposure, allowing an infected person to travel around the world before they knew they had the disease. One American physician made it home from Guinea to New York City before his case manifested, threatening an Ebola outbreak in the largest city in the United States. Though his case was contained, there was a global spread, not of the disease, but of fear of the disease, and policymakers and politicians discovered that their reaction required skills and coordination across borders and oceans.
These kind of emerging and reemerging infectious disease outbreaks have not only tested governments, but societies and individuals themselves. How prepared are we as citizens? As a nation? As an interconnected global community? How well informed are we? How well can we respond? From SARS to MERS to Ebola and now Zika, the globe has dealt with numerous outbreaks and learned a number of lessons. In some areas, we have adapted and improved our capabilities, and in others, there remains much work to do.
Lessons from the Frontlines
While there is a natural focus on what individual governments and international organizations, such as World Health Organization (WHO), did to prevent and respond to an outbreak, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) also played a crucial role.
NGOs had the technical expertise, human resources and communications and policy infrastructure needed to mitigate a crisis before, during and after it occurred. NGOs, for example, often had the local knowledge and were locally known in the areas where the diseases ran rampant. NGOs thus played an important role on the front lines in administering aid, but were also as a trusted resource, building crucial relationships with local communities fighting the current outbreaks and fostering resiliency for future ones.
Another one of the lessons learned was that, more than ever, disease outbreaks were a national security concern. “[W]e must come together to prevent and detect and fight every kind of biological danger—whether it’s a pandemic like H1N1 or a terrorist threat or a treatable disease,” said President Barack Obama in 2011.
The launch of the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) in 2014 formalized the connection between national security and public health, recognizing that whether an epidemic outbreak or a bioweapon attack, the capabilities to prevent, detect and respond to insurgent disease were identical. The GHSA has provided a common and global platform for government agencies to act together effectively. The recognition that health and security are now inextricably linked meant the response to them had to be sustained by the ongoing diplomatic efforts of the international community. Here again, NGOs have proven effective, as trusted and unbiased experts providing a neutral voice, and being a trusted ally to achieve the objectives of both public health and security communities alike.
The American Example
In the U.S., the recent Ebola outbreak further strengthened collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control, Department of Defense and United States Agency for International Development, all coming together to deploy a range of programs, connected in part by the GHSA. NGOs were leveraged in the roll-out of these Ebola response programs, with capabilities developed from their substantial earlier activities.
Specifically, large scientific associations such as the American Public Health Labs, Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute and the American Society for Microbiology gained experience and proved their effectiveness in the roll out of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief starting back in 2004. They helped to stem the tide of HIV and other infectious diseases across Africa and beyond, building laboratory capacity and other programs.
These scientific societies deployed subject matter experts and pulled in not only their parent society, but often universities and professional groups. Thus, individuals developed their own understanding and, more importantly, built trust and relationships that lead to lasting and sustained collaboration beyond the scope of the initial government funded activity.
The capacity developed was not just of physical space and equipment, but also of the networked understanding of a range of people. During the Ebola outbreak, that very capacity, once focused on HIV/AIDS, shifted to include the new outbreak. It remains in place to deal with emerging infectious diseases.
NGO capacity building has proven useful in other ways. While U.S. government assistance on health security has historically been less focused on Latin America, the NGO community has maintained strong ties across the Americas. Through organizations such as the Pan American Health Organization and a robust north-south university network, NGOs have a hemispheric capacity that will, for example, play an important role in the response to the recent Zika virus outbreak.
In addition, the NGO connections with universities are also creating new pathways for careers in global health security and diplomacy, where diverse expertise and experiences are needed. The American Association for the Advancement of Science Policy Fellowship program is an example, placing PhDs in research science in government jobs, leading to an infusion of science into policy and vice versa. The new Global and Public Health Major at Cornell University is an undergraduate example, creating expertise in the areas needed to deal with emerging health threats globally.
Health issues, particularly those of emergent diseases, have become internationalized. The lines between health, security and diplomacy have largely vanished, meaning that any response to them has to come from a multitude of organizations, governmental and non-governmental. In these responses, NGOs have been particularly useful, offering area- and disease-specific knowledge, managing capacity building in both physical and knowledge resources and developing long-term development paths for expertise. The combination proved substantially effective with the Ebola outbreak in 2014, and hopefully will do the same with the next emergent disease.

We could talk all day about how much we love hunting and would love to help guide you on the hunt of your dreams. The real test is when other hunters are satisfied with their experience. Take a minute to read the reviews below about the hunts we’ve provided and then contact us to book your hunt today!
By far the best guy in the business. Seth Chase knows how to track and score big on big game! I plan on bringing my dad next year. This is a gift he will never forget. Thanks!-Willy Monreel
I was anticipating a simple hunt in the woods, but this urban guy has seen the beauty of New Mexico and I love it. The adrenaline rush was nothing like I’ve ever had before. I took home the largest elk I ever saw. Western Outfitting was great!-Jason Vors
I would highly recommend Seth and his hounds to anyone who wants to hunt game – especially big cats. This guy knows what he’s doing. It’s work, but we had a blast.-Erwin Washington
Roughing it never felt so good. I feel like this should be a reality show – The Big Game. I would do it over in a heartbeat.-Carlos Huerta

On Thursday, the Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras resigned and called for new elections. The problem was that he couldn’t deliver the promises to the Greek people on which his leftist party gained power. They included an end to the austerity measures their international debtors had demanded as a condition for continued loans; loans needed to prevent Greece from default and ejection from the Eurozone.
This is the challenge for leadership in complex environments. Ideology promises simple solutions to the world’s problems. Donald Trump will solve the migration flood in the western hemisphere by the erection of a big fence. Mr. Tsipras and his Syriza party promised to simply refuse any further austerity measures. Simple solutions have enormous appeal. Just think of the various superfood fads that have swept the U.S. and similar business obsessions.
When Tsipras got in office, he was faced with a different challenge: that of governing a country within the community of nations. He had to think about the future of Greece’s economy as it is affected by current decisions. Simply, he had to think about the consequences of policies and could no longer linger in the courts of demagogic pandering. This put him in the awkward position of needing to move his own body politic to face difficult realities. His resignation and call for elections appears to be his move to do that.
Would Donald Trump similarly awaken to the polarities involved in leadership if elected? One can never tell. Our recent history is marked by moves that show political action is the result of convoluted convergences: Nixon opens China, Bill Clinton presided over NAFTA and the Defense of Marriage Act. Trump’s level of media-seeking bombast raises questions about whether he is capable of the attention needed to understand the multiple competing forces at work in our world. He demonstrates powerfully the appeal of living in a (mental) world of one’s own construction. Ideology is playing god, albeit in a very small universe.

A step-by-step guide to setting up WordPressify and MySQL on Mac.
WordPressify is a modern workflow for your WordPress development, with an integrated web server, that ties into GitHub, BitBucket and GitLab via WP Pusher.
Setting up MySQL Locally
The easiest approach to setting up WordPressify is to have a local instance of MySQL installed, this runs on the Mac and can be controlled MySQL from System Preferences…
- Download MySQL Community Server from the official site.
- Follow the installation instructions.
Connecting to local MySQL via Sequel Pro
I prefer to use Sequel Pro to connect to MySQL rather than using the command line. You can download Sequel Pro for free here.
- Open Sequel Pro.
- Choose the Socket option.
- Enter the Username and Password you created during the MySQL install.
- You should now be connected.
Preparing to install WordPressify.
- Create a new database
- Create a new user or assign a current user the correct privileges
- Keep note of the database name, username, and password. You’ll need these on the next step.
These instructions can be found on the WordPressify website, I’ve included here for ease of use. I have a folder which I use for my Laravel Homestead sites and install each instance in here to keep my workflow simple.
- Using the command line navigate to your desired root directory.
- Install WordPressify by cloning the GitHub Repository.
git clone https://github.com/luangjokaj/wordpressify
- Install the NPM dependancies.
- Change the template name. Open the gulpfile.js and edit this line:
const themeName = ‘wordpressify’;
- Download the latest version of WordPress.
npm run install:wordpress
- Start the workflow and complete the WordPress Install.
npm run dev
- Connecting to local MySQL during the WordPress Install.
- Add the database, username, and password.
127.0.0.1as the host.

Today on tap and any day by single brew we offer this limited edition treasure
(untill we can’t get it any more – it is limited)
Honduras Finca Santa Marta Catuai
Here is a picture of the area this bean is grown
“Santa Marta is an organic farm located in Tegucigalpita, Yoro, Honduras at an elevation of 4,100-4,850 feet. The Hawit Brothers have been on the forefront of organic farming for a number of years. The farm borders the Parque Nacional Pico Pijol (national forest preserve of Honduras). Pico Pijol is situated on the flanks of Montana de la Flor (Mountain of the Flower). Santa Marta is a biodiverse farm – shade trees include Guama, Liquidambar, Oak, Cedar, Guajiniquel and Musaceas. Irrigation on the farm is by natural spring water.”
The Catuai bean is a bean which originated in Brazil and whose cup features sweet attributes such as caramel, chocolate and fruity acidity. What makes this particularly special is the process. This coffee is prepared in the ‘honey-process’ manner. This is a hyped up version of a natural (unwashed) process that produces amazing results. The method has been used in Ethiopia for years and is now finding its way into new and different origins. Only truly ripe red cherries are picked. The red outer cherry is milled off and the inside mucilage is retained in order for it to dry into the inside hull and bean. The beans and mucilage are then dried on elevated beds in order to produce an even drying. The beans are covered with a cotton shroud either at night or during particularly hot parts of the day to give an even drying. The result is a true ‘honey’ flavor and character to the bean. The cup is complex with honey throughout.
Cupping notes include complexity of cinnamon, woodiness (pine), and spice with subtle clove. This is a unique coffee with balance and depth.” James Cannell
Stop on in and try some you will Love it!

There has, over the past few years, been increasing use of unconditional offers by institutions, as part of their admissions and recruitment strategy. There are a number of ways in which unconditional offers are being used, but in a nutshell, it involves giving students who are yet to complete exams and gain their results an offer that is not conditional on the grades that they will receive in the future.
There are, throughout the sector, differing views on this increasing use of unconditional offers but it is safe to say that it is a controversial subject and has led to recent interventions by the Secretary of State. The debate rumbles on and we are not going to revisit it in any detail here. Instead we are attempting to add something that may have been missing so far: the views of students and their attitudes to the increased use of unconditional offers.
With millions of visits to Whatuni and the Complete University Guide each year, we used this audience to conduct a snap survey, receiving over 600 responses in two weeks (end of May/ beginning of June 2019). Respondents were UK based and interested in studying at an institution in the UK. The survey aimed to help us begin to understand students’ attitudes to unconditional university offers.
Some of the results may surprise you. Students are, in the main, supportive of the increase use of unconditional offers and our research suggests that they do encourage students to accept a university’s offer.
- 45% of respondents have received one or more unconditional offer, this rises to over 50% when we only include those who have received offers to study in 2019.
- 68% of unconditional offers are valid only if the applicant firmly accepts the offer.
- 57% stated that they were either significantly more likely or more likely to accept an unconditional offer than a conditional one.
- 43% of respondents view the increasing use of unconditional offers as positive for students.
- 40% of respondents believe that receiving an unconditional offer would or will have no impact on how they approach their study and exams this summer.
- BTec students the most likely to receive one or more unconditional offer.
Detailed findings – sample:
With 615 responses the survey was aimed at, but not exclusively, at those users of our sites looking to commence their university studies in the autumn of 2019. Therefore 68% of respondents were intending to commence study in 2019 and 83% have lodged an application with UCAS. In line with this, 65% of respondents are still awaiting their grades and so would traditionally have expected to receive conditional offers.
The vast majority of respondents are studying for A Levels (75%) with 12% Btec, 5% International Baccalaureate, 4% Access to HE Diploma, 2% Scottish Highers, 8% Other. Just under half (47%) are studying at a State School, 24% in an FE College, 12% an Independent School, 9% at Grammar School and 16% ‘Other’.
The types of offers respondents have received:
Considering only those looking to study in 2019 and who have submitted an application through UCAS, we can see that the majority of respondents have received the maximum number of offers, over 97% of respondents have received one offer or more.
How many offers have you currently received?
We then asked respondents whether they had any received unconditional offers and found that half of respondents have received one or more unconditional offers.
How many of the offers you have received are unconditional?
Interestingly, when we looked at what type of school or college those who received unconditional offers were currently studying at, we found that 51% of state school pupils had received no unconditional offers, this rose to 57% amongst those studying at Independent or Grammar schools. In fact, the students most likely to receive one or more unconditional offers are those studying at an FE College.
When we delve a little deeper and look at the qualifications they are studying, we see that BTec students are the most likely group to receive one or more unconditional offer, compared to those studying for access to HE Diploma or A Levels.
Of those who received one or more unconditional offers, 68% of them state that the offer is subject to them firmly accepting the offer, with a further 12% unsure whether or not the unconditional offer was only valid if they firmly accepted it.
Were any of the unconditional offers only valid if you made that university your form choice?
Attitudes to unconditional offers:
There is no getting around the fact that students are attracted by unconditional offers.
Of those students who received one or more unconditional offers, 57% stated that they were either significantly more likely or more likely to accept an unconditional offer than a conditional one.
Do unconditional offers make you more or less likely to accept that offer?
These attitudes and findings are further backed up by the fact that of those who received unconditional offers nearly half (49%) firmly accepted an unconditional offer and only 29% rejected an unconditional offer in favour of a conditional offer. Interestingly, if we filter to only include those whose offer or offers were valid if they firmly accepted it, the findings change very little but do decrease slightly with 45% stating that they firmly accepted the unconditional offer. This suggests that it is the unconditional offer itself, rather than the pre-requisite to firmly accept it that has the greater impact on the student’s behavior.
If you received an unconditional offer, did you: (Filtered to include only those who received one or more unconditional offer)
We then subsequently asked respondents to state their views on the increasing use of unconditional offers by universities. Interestingly the results show that 43% of respondents view them positively, with a third stating the reverse. There is no significant difference in the responses if we filter to only include those who have received an unconditional offer.
Some universities are issuing more unconditional offers than ever before. What are your views on this?
Attitudes to their upcoming exams:
Amongst all respondents, just over 40% believe that receiving an unconditional offer would or will have no impact on how they approach their study and exams this summer. This rises to 53% amongst those who have received and are holding one or more unconditional offer. However, just over a fifth of those holding an unconditional offer believe they will be less motivated to study and just under a fifth state that they will be more motivated to study.
Would/does having an unconditional offer change the way you approach your studies and exams in the lead up to university? (filtered to only include those holding one or more unconditional offers).
Conclusions – what can we conclude from this short survey?
Firstly, it highlights the widespread use of unconditional offers as a recruitment and admissions tool and the fact that they are, in the vast majority of cases, being used to actively encourage students to firmly accept one offer over another.
Secondly, this survey shows that in respect to changing applicants’ and students’ behaviour at the offer making stage of the journey, they are having an impact – students are more likely to accept an unconditional offer over a conditional one.
Thirdly, students don’t view them in the same negative light as certain parts of the media and the education sector. This view does not change in any significant way whether or not the student has received an unconditional offer or not.
Finally, students don’t tend to feel that receiving an unconditional offer will negatively impact on their studies and exams – one of the key criticism of the increased use of unconditional offers.

Eid ul-Fitr concludes the fasting month of Ramadan, during which we have been witnessing a tragic situation. Nevertheless we send our Muslim fellow-citizens and companions in history and destiny sincere congratulations on Eid al-Fitr, together with prayers for safety and security, reconciliation, love and peace in our Arab countries, especially in Syria, Iraq, Palestine and Lebanon.
Today, more than ever before, all we Christians and Muslims need a new spirituality to bring us from exclusion to inclusion, rejection to acceptance, stereotyping to understanding and from distortion to respect; from condemnation to compassion, hostility to friendship, competition to integration, and from hatred to love and the broad bosom of God, because God is love.
This spirituality will help us rebuild our homes that are currently threatened with physical and spiritual destruction, and enable us together to rebuild what has been broken down spiritually in our society, and reconstruct its material and human social fabric.
I invited everyone to this in my most recent letter entitled, "Message of an Arab Christian Patriarch to his Muslim brethren." I hope this letter has reached its designated readership.
I close my greetings with a passage from the above-mentioned letter:
“The task entrusted to us in the Middle East is to challenge the West and the whole Muslim world by our Eastern Christian-Muslim unity, based on a new type of civilization: the civilization of love.”
With love and prayer
+ Gregorios III
Patriarch of Antioch and All the East
Of Alexandria and of Jerusalem
For the Melkite Greek Catholic Church

This is the recipe of cannoli (well, my family’s recipe!). It’s a traditional dish from Sicily and it requires very specific ingredients that are sometimes hard to find abroad… there are many Sicilian migrants here, so l am lucky enough to find almost anything. If you can’t find ricotta cheese, you can try and substitute it with cream cheese or whipped cream or a mixture of both. To make the shells, you need a mould that l have brought from Sicily… but it’s a very simple object and you should be able to find/make something like it. They are simple cylinders (about 10 cm long) made of heat resistant aluminum and empty inside.
SICILIAN CANNOLI - CANNOLI SICILIANI
- 250 gms of plain flour
- 25 gms of lard
- 1 tbsp of sugar
- ½ glass wine of red wine vinegar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 egg white
- Lard or vegetable oil for deep frying
- 1 kg of ricotta cheese preferably sheep milk ricotta, but cow's milk ricotta is ok too
- 600 gms of sugar
- 100 gms of dark chocolate
- Candied pumpkin and/or candied orange peels optional
For the shells, knead the flour, lard, sugar, vinegar, egg white and salt together until obtaining a smooth dough. Divide it in six and start working on one of the pieces. Flatten it with a rolling pin and then pass it in the pasta machine. Start from the largest pin and pass the dough through several times, progressively thinning the dough, till the 3rd thinner most pin (#6). You can also roll the dough by hand... just make it very thin: approx. 2 mm thick.
Then get a coffee plate, place it on top of the rolled dough and cut around it. Make approximately 25 circles. Roll them loosely around the mould and stick the ends with some egg white or water. Deep fry them in hot vegetable oil or lard carefully removing the mould half through the frying process. When ready, place them in a plate lined with kitchen paper and dry off the oil. Let them cool down. These shells can be kept up to 4 weeks in an air tight container.
For the ricotta filling, sieve the ricotta very finely and keep in the fridge overnight. The following day, add the sugar to the ricotta, mix well and sieve it again. Then add the chocolate in thick pieces. If you want, you can also add candied pumpkin and candied orange peels to the cream.
To prevent the cannoli from getting soggy and soft, fill the shells with a generous amount of ricotta cream just before serving them and sprinkle them with icing sugar.

How ideas go viral in academia
How ideas move through academia may depend on where those ideas come from–whether from big-name universities or less prestigious institutions–as much as their quality, a recent study from the University of Colorado Boulder suggests.
The new research borrows a page from epidemiology, exploring how ideas might flow from university to university, almost like a disease. The findings from CU Boulder's Allison Morgan and her colleagues suggest that the way that universities hire new faculty members may give elite schools an edge in spreading their research to others.
In particular, the team simulated how ideas might spread out faster from highly-ranked schools than from those at the bottom of the pile–even when the ideas weren't that good. The results suggest that academia may not function like the meritocracy that some claim, said Morgan, a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science.
She and her colleagues began by drawing on a dataset, originally published in 2015, that described the hiring histories of more than 5,000 faculty members in 205 computer science programs in the U.S. and Canada.
That dataset revealed what might be a major power imbalance in the field–with a small number of universities training the majority of tenure track faculty across both countries.
"This paper was really about investigating the implications of the imbalance," Morgan said. "What does it mean if the elite institutions are producing the majority of the faculty who are, in turn, training the future teachers in the field?"
To answer that question, the researchers turned the 2015 dataset into a network of connected universities. If a university placed one of its Ph.D. students in a job at another school, then those two schools were linked. The resulting "roadmap" showed how faculty might carry ideas from their graduate schools to the universities that hired them.
The researchers then ran thousands of simulations on that network, allowing ideas that began at one school to percolate down to others. The team adjusted for the quality of ideas by making some more likely to shift between nodes than others.
The findings, published in October in the journal EPJ Data Science, show that it matters where an idea gets started. When mid-level ideas began at less prestigious schools, they tended to stall, not reaching the full network. The same wasn't true for so-so thinking from major universities.
"If you start a medium- or low-quality idea at a prestigious university, it goes much farther in the network and can infect more nodes than an idea starting at a less prestigious university," Morgan said.
That pattern held up even when the researchers introduced a bit of randomness to the mix–allowing ideas to pop from one end of the network to another by chance. That simulated how university departments might learn about an idea through factors other than hiring, such as journals, conferences or word of mouth.
The results seem to paint a dim picture of academia, said study coauthor Samuel Way, a postdoctoral research associate in computer science. He explained that recent sociological research demonstrates that workplaces benefit by having a lot of diversity–whether in gender, race or in how employees are trained.
"If you have five people who all have the exact same training and look at the world through the same lens, and you give them a problem that stumps one of them, it might stump all of them," Way said.
He added that it may be possible for the academic world to blunt the impact of the sorts of biases the team revealed, including by adopting practices like double-blind peer review–in which the reviewers of a study can't see the names or affiliations of the authors.
"In a setting like science where it's incredibly difficult to come up with an objective measure of the quality of an idea, double-blind peer review may be the best you can do," Way said.
The study did, however, contain a bit of good news: The bias toward big-name universities mattered a lot less for high-quality ideas. In other words, great thinking can still catch fire in academia, no matter where it comes from.
"I think it's heartwarming in a way," Morgan said. "We see that if you have a high-quality idea, and you're from the bottom of the hierarchy, you have as good a chance of sending that idea across the network, as if it came from the top."
Other coauthors on the study included graduate student Dimitrios Economou and Associate Professor Aaron Clauset, both in computer science.

I’ve had IBS for what feels like a 100 years now and have been faced with every throwaway comment from people who might mean well, but don’t get it. So I figured, why not turn those comments into a cheat sheet of things NOT to say to someone with IBS. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s that you’ve got to educate people around invisible illnesses. Here goes!
1. Is it just a bit of an upset tummy?
I can assure you that it’s never this simple. Oh how us IBS sufferers would love for it to be just an upset stomach. The reality is something more along the lines of upset stomach multiplied by 10 with a real urgency to go and sometimes no control over our bowels. Add to the mix intense stomach cramps where it feels like someone has stuck a knife in your intestines and is slowly twisting, extreme bloating, nausea, and feeling clammy all followed by a nice bout of lethargy. Then you’re more on the right lines.
2. Do we have to leave now? Can’t you wait 10 minutes?!
An IBS belly does not wait 10 minutes, let me tell you. When you have to go, you have to go, immediately. Urgency, anxiety, you name it, it’ll kick in and when it does it’s an urgent situation of fear, panic and extreme distress. Trust me, I’ve been there many times. Those extra 10 minutes will be the longest 10 minutes of an IBS sufferers life and the pain will only continue to intensify for them.
It sucks that you might miss the end of a gig, the best part of a party or something as simple as a train, but trust me, the person with IBS doesn’t want to leave early, they have to. Their body is working against them. The longer you leave it the higher the chances are of a complete body breakdown. And no one, I repeat no one, wants that. I can confirm that.
3. Seriously, can’t you just eat around the cheese/dairy/gluten/onions?!
No. Because if I eat said cheese/dairy/gluten/onions I can assure you that you won’t see me for the rest of the night.
4. So you don’t know if you can make it because you might have a flare up?
I’ve been in situations where the mere thought of having an IBS flare up while out has given me so much anxiety, that I’ve decided I’d rather miss out than put my body through the added stress. Other times, I’ve accepted an invitation and just gone for it, throwing myself in at the deep end. This has both paid off and been a mistake for me. It’s one of the toughest decisions and sometimes the stress alone can make you unwell.
If it’s something I’ll regret missing, I make sure I suss out what my emergency plan looks like before I go. I suss out travel time, the toilet situation and food choices so that if the worst case scenario presents itself, I know where I need to go. This takes out some of the worrying thoughts.
There isn’t a clear-cut, easy answer to this one. What I would say is be honest with your family and friends, explain the situation and then trust your gut. Only you know how you feel.
5. Have you been in the loo all that time? What have you been doing?
Oh you know, plucking my moustache hair, painting my nails, shopping on ASOS… Seriously though, my response is always, “yes I have.” And that’s that. You can’t help it.
6. Seriously, you need to go again?
Yep. And I’ll probably need to do so at least another three times until my body has cleared itself out completely, thank you very much. Would you like to swap guts?
7. You should go to the doctors about that
Been there, tried that, taken all the drugs, had all the tests, cried a million times and got the t-shirt. Thanks for that brilliant idea though.
8. Try and relax
Ahhh, if only it was that easy. You try being relaxed why your insides battles against you, while your anxious mind runs away with you and while your bowel dictates your every movement.
9. Should you be eating that?
Sorry, do you know my can-eat list better than I do? Also, I always like to point out that I’m not 10 years old. Yes, every now and then I like to sneak a bar of chocolate in my gob but it’s my body, my choice and only I can know if it’s truly worth it or not.
10. I wanted to cook for you but forgot what you couldn’t eat, so just made a creamy lasagne, is that ok?
Unfortunately not. Said creamy lasagne will aggravate my insides and see me crippled over in pain, running to the nearest bathroom (that you’ve likely just cleaned) within 10 minutes flat.
Instead, offer to send a list of what you can eat and some meal ideas that work for you on a regular basis. It’s all about education my friend.
Got any of your own witty comebacks? Drop ’em below.

Landmark study on 'Legacy' reveals
82% could leave a "heckuva mess!"
A Conversation with Ken Dychtwald PhD, CEO of Age Wave
Internationally acclaimed author, gerontologist and psychologist
Click the play button or download the audio by clicking the tiny icon on the upper right
What is the lasting gift of Legacy? And – who’s giving that gift? Or not bothering at all?
My guest in the Legacy Café is Ken Dychtwald, CEO of Age Wave and internationally recognized author and gerontologist. He recently released a groundbreaking study on legacy and aging as a research project with Bank 0f America/Merrill Lynch.
In the study titled, “Leaving a legacy. A lasting gift to loved ones”, Ken discovered that 82% of us will likely be remembered with the phrase: “Well, you left a heckuva mess.” Not good!
Turns out 94% of the 3000 people surveyed said they would like their legacy to be “a life well lived with family and friends that love me,” while only 4% said their legacy is the wealth they accumulated. Hmmm…
Join my conversation with Ken for a fascinating review of his eye-opening study and what various generations are thinking of ‘legacy’, how each is acting to live it….and give it.

Thank you for visiting Quilt Moments’ blog. I am thrilled that my block appears in the new Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Volume 7 hitting newsstands May 7th and it’s fun to be part of the blog tour. Today I’ll share some ideas on how to use my block and give you a chance to win several goodies. Keep reading to the end to see what you could win!
I made the block using the Love Flows collection designed by Jan Douglas for Maywood Studio. Here are some images of what 5 blocks set on point look like for a 40″ x 40″ tabletopper / wallhanging.
First, here’s what the quilt looks like using the same fabrics shown in the block above.
Next, here is the same setting using brown instead of cream for the background, and changing some of the fabric positions.
Now let’s see the block in a different fabric collection, Garden of Enchantment by Maywood Studio.
The large print shown on the border is what is used for all the 4-patch block centers.
I have many patterns and a book featuring this easy technique which you can see on my website, but
here are the construction highlights:
1) Cut or rip a piece of large print fabric containing at least 4 fabric repeats lengthwise down the middle and save one of these pieces for the wide borders
2) Cut out and layer four identical pieces of the fabric following the design repeat and pin around the perimeter with flathead pins carefully capturing the same motif through all fabric layers
3) Rotary cut strip sets 3-1/2” wide and then sub-cut them into 3-1/2” square sets.
4) Take a square set, and rotate the four identical squares to create a 4-patch kaleidoscope. There are four different rotation options so have fun choosing your favorite look!
Have fun choosing a large print to make your own block. Florals work great, but you can also have fun using novelty prints and kids’ prints.
I was so inspired by the Love Flows fabric collection while working on my block submission that I made a twin size version of my Trellis Garden (QM116) pattern with the fabric and updated my pattern cover to feature the fabric as shown below.
Here is an image of a queen size quilt using my Kaleidoscope Symphony design and the Maywood Studio’s Garden of Enchantment fabric line that I showed you above. Adding easy “4-patch kaleidoscopes” to the center of blocks is a fun way to spice up your blocks so give it a try!
Now for the goodies. Leave a comment on this post by midnight Friday, May 3rd, for a chance to win a copy of the new Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks Volume 7 magazine, a Quilt Moments’ pattern, or my Kaleidoscope Symphony book. Tell me what pattern you would like to win (you can see all of them on my website).
Then remember to visit Quiltmaker and all the other blogs for more entertainment and chances to win prizes.
Enjoy all your quilt moments!

How much do you know about men’s nutrition? I don’t know as much as I should, but as I have now left the phase of fatherhood where I would ram whatever I could find into my mouth because I was busy looking after two pre-schoolers, it’s an area I am increasingly interested in. I have more time to think about my health and I am more concerned about my nutritional needs.
I recently attended an event to learn all about how berries are farmed and how you can cook with them (watch this space, a blog post on this subject is coming very soon!). Nutritionist Jenna Hope was also at the event and she delivered a very interesting talk about the nutritional value of berries, in particular making a couple of remarks about how berries can be very good for the prostate.
This got me thinking. Rarely, if ever, have discussions about nutrition with male friends delved much deeper than the fat content in food. I thought I could be on to something and so asked Jenna for some general pointers on nutrition and men’s nutrition.
I hope you find her answers useful. If you have any specific queries or comments, please do feel free to leave a comment yourself at the end.
Can you please introduce yourself and your work?
Hi, I’m Jenna Hope. A nutritionist registered with The Association For Nutrition. After studying as an undergraduate and a masters in nutrition, I set up my nutrition consultancy business which is Jenna Hope Nutrition. I work with individuals, brands, corporate companies and the media to deliver smart, practical and digestible nutrition advice which is aimed at improving overall health and wellbeing. In addition to this, I also co-founded a business with a fellow nutritionist where we deliver nutrition education in schools, colleges and universities.
I have heard you say a lot about stress and tiredness the impact this has on most people. What is the link between stress, tiredness and food?
Stress is significantly linked to food choices and the amount of food consumed. Some people lose their appetite when they’re stressed due to the cortisol (stress hormone) which reduces metabolism and digestion as a priority. On the flipside, around 40% of people increase their food intake in response to stress.
Highly palatable foods (e.g. high fat, high sugar foods) dampen down the release of cortisol which leaves you feeling calmer. In addition to this, we also know that when you’re tired you’re much more likely to consume higher sugar foods to increase your energy intake and more of it. Leptin, your satiety hormone, becomes less effective and as a result you’re more likely to feel hungry too.
Thinking specifically men’s nutrition, what are the main nutritional issues that men face?
As a general rule of thumb males face challenges such as being less interested in nutrition (definitely not all but in many cases). Time is also a challenge and social drinking is also a huge player as there can be a subconscious bias to pick unhealthy food and alcohol. It’s also sometimes not seen as ‘manly’ to opt for healthier options. With women it’s deemed more socially acceptable to pick healthier options and care about your nutrition whereas for some reason men aren’t talking about it enough and it’s definitely a conversation which needs to be opened a lot more.
Men also struggle with a slowing metabolism as they age which can prove challenging if they continue to eat what they’ve always eaten.
Thinking again of the main health issues affecting men, how can they adjust their diets to make them healthier?
It’s really about incorporating more plant rich foods to ensure adequate levels of phytonutrients. These are chemicals which are found naturally in plants.
Lycopene is a key antioxidant which has been found to reduce the risk of prostate cancer in men. Fibre consumption is also really important to maintain a healthy gut function. Gut disorders amongst men are very common although they’re often not spoken about as males seem to get on with life without complaining too much.
Ensuring adequate fibre consumption can also help to support a healthy gut. I also find that with the men I work with in my clinic, many are drinking too much coffee which is contributing to their daily stress response and in turn can affect their gut health and overall nutrient status.
Thinking specifically about fathers, What do they need to keep in mind nutrition-wise? I’ve previously read quite a bit about prospective fathers and what they need to consider for good sperm health. Have you any pointers here?
Whilst everyone is different and fertility is a very personal topic there are a few key nutrients which play a role. Selenium is vital to help make the sperm swim.
Foods such as brazil nuts, shellfish and meat are great ways to ensure adequate intakes. Zinc is also particularly important in maintaining sperm count and the quality of sperm. Meat and fish are a great way to ensure adequate zinc levels. Vitamin B12 also helps to protect sperm count and sperm motility. Meat, fish, eggs and dairy are rich in B12. Those following a vegan diet are recommended to supplement with B12.
What do you have to say about current food trends such as veganism, keto diet and intermittent fasting?
There are so many fads at the moment and whilst there is no one size fits all it’s important to be aware that just because something worked for your friend / neighbour it isn’t necessarily going to work for you.
With regards to the keto diet, the research is focussed around epilepsy management and not weight loss. The literature fails to favour one diet over another for weight loss over a period of 2 years. The keto diet is also very restrictive which can pose challenges and increased risk of binging later on.
Intermittent fasting is an interesting one and one which we don’t have enough literature on at the moment. The main theory as to why it can generate weight loss is due to the reduction in calories due to the reduced eating window.
Finally, veganism is a current trend which I fully respect anyone who is choosing to go vegan for environment or ethical reasons although it’s not necessarily healthier. It can pose risk of deficiencies such as omega-3, calcium, iodine, Vitamin D and B12 and therefore you need to ensure you’re getting your nutrients from other places.
We’re coming up to holiday season. What advice would you give families to ensure they eat healthily while on vacation?
I’d say don’t stress about what you’re eating but at the same time try and make healthy, conscious decisions. Just because you’re on holiday isn’t to say that you should go all out and go mad.
You might eat a little more and drink a little more than normal but try and opt for good quality protein and vegetables at breakfast (avoid the pancakes, waffles and sugary pastries at breakfast) and save your sugar consumption for later on in the day when you’re more likely to enjoy an ice cream.
When it comes to alcohol stay hydrated between drinks, try and opt for clear spirits and tonic over sugary cocktails and beers as the sugar content can quickly add up.

Let this song be your soundtrack.
Let this song be your soundtrack.
Our perspective on all of life changes when we truly know that we are SAFE in God.
We all have them. Conversations that we dread, that don’t go the way we hope they would, and that some of us even agonize about afterward. Whether it’s asking your boss for a raise, negotiating with a supplier, or figuring out how to give a negative evaluation to an employee – conversations about difficult topics bedevil us. We dislike the upset beforehand, so we tend to put them off. We dislike the tension while they’re going on, so we tend to cut them short and don’t get what we want. We’re not at our best under those circumstances, and that further cuts into our effectiveness. And we find them haunting us afterward, thinking about all the things we could have said.
It’s time for those conversations to go better. This book will take you through a process that will help you stop dreading difficult conversations, get what you need out of them, and look back at them with satisfaction. Let’s get started.
The dread that precedes tough talks comes from fearing that the experience will leave you worse off than you were before – emotionally wounded, perhaps, possibly humiliated, almost certainly feeling bad because you didn’t get what you want.
Here’s what’s happening: Your mind is projecting a bad outcome because of your fear. That creates a doom loop that has your emotions feeding off your negative thinking, and your negative thinking feeding off your emotions. There’s nowhere to go but down.
It’s time for some positive talk. When you think about the coming conversation, don’t let the negative thoughts crowd in. Instead, tell yourself something like, “I am confident and serene. I will handle the conversation beautifully.” Use your own words and concepts, specific to your situation, but that should give you the idea. Keep your mantra simple and positive and avoid negative statements (don’t say, “I won’t be afraid”; say, “I will be courageous.”
Rather than dwelling on the possible bad outcome and feeling so miserable you never have the conversation, project yourself into that happy future state.
The idea is to drown out the negative emotions with positive ones. That will prevent you from getting worked up, and it will stop your mind from feeding off your emotions, ending the doom loop.
But you have to practice it faithfully. What I can tell you is that if you practice saying your mantra to yourself several times a day for a few minutes, and especially whenever negative thoughts develop, you will find yourself shedding your emotional discomfort. An especially good time to practice your mantra is when you are waking up or falling asleep. In those half-awake moments, our conscious minds seem to access the unconscious – where the fear resides – more easily.
It takes a while – sometimes several weeks – but stick with it. The results are worth it. They will surprise you. One day you’ll suddenly notice that your stomach is no longer tied up in knots about that conversation. You’ll face it with equanimity.
Once you’ve achieved that happy state, you’re ready for the next step.
It seems obvious: It’s about what you’ve been dreading – asking your boss for a raise (and getting shot down); trying to persuade a colleague to change an approach to a major software implementation (and getting shot down); accusing an employee of pilfering company supplies (and getting stonewalled).
No. The conversation is about articulating to your boss all the great things you’ve done for the company, or perhaps pointing out that people at your level of experience are making more than what you’re making now. Or the conversation is about how we can save tons of time, money and effort if we do the software implementation in the right way. Or the conversation is about taking responsibility for one’s actions, both good and bad.
That’s framing. And it’s the key to a successful conversation. If you frame an issue with your positive end in mind, it will come out very differently than if you frame it around your fears. You want to begin the conversation with a brisk, confident, statement like, “Let’s talk today about the money my cost-saving ideas have meant to this company and how I can be fairly compensated for that.”
Do you see the difference? Right away, the issue on the table is about good things like fairness, and your positive contribution, as well as your compensation, rather than your boss’ penny-pinching.
How you frame the conversation will determine how it can go. Always look for the positive setting, and one that assumes your position, and then puts the negotiation on how that works out. In other words, it’s not, “Can I get a raise?” because that sets up the listener to say “No.” Rather, it’s “Let’s talk about how the company is going to compensate me for my contributions of the last twelve months.” The different phrasing assumes that you deserve better compensation; the question on the table is how much.
Of course, this kind of positive framing won’t stop a complete Grinch from saying something like, “Bah Humbug! The company has no intention of compensating you for anything you’ve done!” But then at least the lines have been drawn in a way that lets you debate that issue, not some other one like how hard the boss’s life it right now.
If there’s an elephant in the room – a big, obvious problem that everyone involved knows about, but for one reason or another is avoiding – then you can usually get good mileage out of naming that beast. Sometimes you can change a long-festering issue, other times, you’ll just get a collective sigh of relief. But you’ll almost always get respect for courage and integrity.
It’s really important, then, to think clearly about any such elephants beforehand, in the calm before the battle, when your emotions are not roiled and you have some time to sort out what you have to say. The idea is to state the problem or issue in a way that points back to your frame. “I know the indictments and the fifteen straight quarters of losses have taken a heavy toll on the company and its management. That’s why my cost-saving strategies have been so important. Without them, Blunderbuss Enterprises might not even been able to avoid bankruptcy. In Q3 alone, we put $5 million back to the bottom line . . . “
Bring up the elephant before anyone else does, and you will strengthen your side of the conversation rather than weakening it.
As the conversation gets going, the opposite party may well fling brickbats at you, no matter how hard you work to keep things positive. “Of course I take company supplies! I haven’t had a raise in six years! The company owes me!”
Those kind of emotional curve balls are designed to deflect attention, and induce guilt, not to resolve the situation positively. And you’ll find the conversation rapidly spinning out of control if you chase your interlocutor down those particular rabbit holes. Instead, say, “What I hear you saying is that you feel that you’ve gone a long time without a raise, is that right?” Then, once you’ve got agreement on what was just said, you can make your move. “Let’s talk about your raise at another time. Right now, let’s resolve the issue of those company supplies, and how much the losses are costing us.”
Get the employee focused on the shrinkage issue, rather than compensation, and you can stay focused on the real problem.
You have to recognize that hard conversations, the kind that you keep putting off because you’re afraid of the answer, often involve some tough bargaining, and the likelihood of an acceptable outcome becomes much more likely if everyone involved feels that their needs and emotions have been heard and respected. So be prepared to spend some time doing just that, using your reflective listening skills.
People often won’t identify how they’re feeling. Instead, they’ll make an accusation. “You never . . .” “You always . . .” What you need to listen for here is the emotional feeling behind the charge. “What I hear you saying is that you feel underappreciated. Is that right?”
You’ll be surprised at how much easier it is to talk to someone once these emotional attitudes behind the statements, charges, and accusations are acknowledged. But you have to listen closely and carefully, without defensiveness, to hear the emotion. It’s easy to get defensive, and occupied in refuting the charge, rather than hearing the attitude behind what’s being said. You must remain open, and be willing to acknowledge that your actions have perhaps led to someone else feeling hurt, afraid, lonely, or distrustful.
The key is to stay open no matter what. Emotional conversations tend to induce feelings of defensiveness, guilt, and anger, and those are explosive emotions to handle at any time, and certainly under the gun. Prepare yourself beforehand by thinking through the possibilities, but then listen hard in the moment, because you may well be surprised. Many of us are not aware of how our actions affect others. This is a good time to find out.
Once the conversation has gone on for a while, you’ve framed it successfully, listened to the emotions carefully, and reflected them, it’s time to state clearly what the remaining differences are in the context of your initial frame. “So let me clarify for a moment. I hear you saying that the company is prepared to offer me a 3 percent raise and the chance at a 50 percent bonus at the end of the calendar year if those revenue targets are met. What my research indicated was that a 6 percent raise would put me in a fairer position given my achievements. It sounds like we agree on the bonus arrangement, and we’re 3 percent apart on the raise. Is that the way you hear it?”
Once the other party agrees, or you reach agreement on the differences, then you’re in a strong position to make a counter offer, or accept the other person’s proposal with conditions, or whatever you feel is appropriate. If you’re too far apart, you can suggest a break in the discussion for both parties to think things over, and get agreement on when to resume.
That gives you an opportunity to restate your goals, if you still are far apart and you want to continue to negotiate.
Always begin by stating what both parties agree on, in order to stress the positive, making it more likely you’ll be able to move forward on the remaining issues. It’s why negotiators in very difficult, protracted bargaining impasses spend time on getting a mutual understanding on things like the shape of the table, the conditions for negotiation, and so on. Once we get into the habit of agreeing, we build positive connection and emotional rapport, and we’re more likely to conclude with a final agreement.
Of course, some negotiations are too difficult, or too negatively charged, for that kind of atmospheric conditioning to help much, but most everyday conversations are helped enormously.
Just as you need to be open to hearing the other party’s emotional story, you need to be ready to state yours. In very fraught situations, of course, this can be ferociously difficult. But sometimes simply saying how you feel will lead to a breakthrough or at least an important acknowledgment from the other side. “I’ve been hurting for several weeks ever since that last conversation in which you said my contribution to the company was essentially nil. I need to feel like I’ve got your support when I’m going up against that tough negotiating team from XYZ Enterprises. I need to feel like the company has my back.”
A lot of the agony of these hard conversations comes from unexpressed hurt feelings, so rather than make accusations, state the facts, and say how you feel as a result. You will feel a good deal better just to get your feelings out in the open. Make them the “I” statements of psychological lore, rather than “You said” statements. Explaining how you feel is something that the other person can’t argue with. “You” statements will quickly put the other party on the defensive.
While stating how you feel won’t always turn the conversation in your favor, it will almost always give you added leverage.
Always go armed with the clear knowledge of what you can accept, so you’ll know when you’re ready to push for agreement. Sometimes, all you can get is the willingness to keep talking. In both cases, it’s extremely important to reach a mutual understanding on whatever the next steps are – time and place of your next meeting, further outside research that needs to be done, or a complete meeting of minds. Whatever you can agree on, state it clearly and use it to define the action that will result.
Tough conversations can lead to extraordinary breakthroughs, happy surprises, and emotional healing – but only if you actually have them. Prepare yourself to keep the emotions as positive as possible. Frame the conversation in ways that give the other person a choice among positive outcomes for you. Be open about big outstanding issues. Listen openly without defensiveness and reflect the underlying emotions of the other party. Name the areas of agreement and the ones where differences remain. Be open about your feelings, too. And move forward on action.
Taking these steps won’t make tough conversations easy, but they will create the conditions for a successful, mutually satisfying outcome.
On March 12, 2008 I had an appointment with death. What I mean is, I had a divine appointment scheduled, unbeknownst to me, at a murder scene.
It began with an appointment with a man who makes wooden crosses: a run-of-the-mill visit to Deheisheh, the largest refugee camp in Bethlehem. At the time I was living in Bethlehem, Israel/Palestinian Territories. I went to meet my friend David and a local man to pick-up a handmade cross to be a prototype for a large order of other such crosses, made of olive wood by the man’s father to be sold overseas to help pay for medical expenses for his twenty-something son, a paraplegic after being shot by soldiers several years prior.
When I arrived I saw my friend, Shaadi, a Palestinian who often gives tours of the area to visitors. He was with two Iranian-Americans and preparing to go to Mar Saba (a monastery in the Judean wilderness outside of Bhem). He asked if I wanted to go. I did. So David and I went – postponing our meeting with the woodworker until that night.
After several hours at the monastery we returned to Bethlehem. It was shortly after 6pm. Shaadi got a phone call. Hot with distress he turned to us, “The IDF just killed four men in Bethlehem, in their car, they were wanted men.” David and I asked questions. The visitors waited. Shaadi said it just happened, just then, they were killed by a rocket his friend thought, one of the dead was a major Islamic Jihad leader in the West Bank — and Shaadi was going to the scene. “Do you want to go?”
Yeah. We do.
So, we did. Two American believers, two Iranian-American tourists, and two Palestinians (Shaadi and our taxi driver, Abed).
You want me to describe the scene; and I will BUT, see that:
1. God in His kindness and His omniscience brought me there – He placed some of His light in a very dark place.
2. It was an honor to be able to be there.
3. It was an honor to be with Bethlehem in an evening of highest turmoil and grief.
4. It was a turning point for me as well.
It was a small car – a red one, four door, maybe 20 years old. Hundreds of people rimmed it. Abed told me to stay close, and I did. He took me right up to the car, through the crowds of frozen electricity, like the stain a lightning bolt leaves in a stormy sky. The windows were crumpled, shattered under the onslaught of machine-gun fire. It wasn’t a rocket, as Shaadi’s friend supposed, it was a spray of bullets from a special unit of Israel Defense Forces, clothed as Palestinians, riding inconspicuously in a Bethlehem taxi. Reports said they attempted to arrest the four men (3 Islamic Jihad, 1 Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade). The most significant man, Shehadah, they wanted for 8 years. The four men, laden with weapons, fired on the IDF special forces when they attempted to arrest them, and the IDF immediately killed them all. The car itself made new clarity of “riddled with bullets.” Dozens of holes every where: each seat inside with its own red-red-red-red bullseye: four concentrated blood stains at each passenger’s chest-level, with the trails of helter-skelter bullets splayed around.
(for video taken about 15 minutes before we arrived on the scene
(take note: blood and bodies)
(for a news article on the event: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/125552)
“Faddal” (“please go ahead”) I said, moving back at one point to allow a boy, maybe ten, to slide past me – his hands gingerly touching the car as he squeezed by. His eyes surprised me. Not fear, not demand, but frankness. He wanted to see up-close.
I was suddenly tired, rigidly sad. I wanted all those kids to be protected from this. I wanted someone to take them home, to keep them from an impression of reality more likely to breed hatred than love. I wanted them to have Father God’s kingdom within them, to remove them from the competition of the kings and rulers of this world.
A wall of people my standing couch of false relaxation, I drifted toward those I came with. Shaadi was leading them back to the taxi. He jolted around, “Where’s Daaaaaw….?!” – the “n” swallowed by our eye contact. I smiled sincerely, “Thanks.” I knew he was looking out for me. In an ocean of mayhem, I appreciated it a lot.
Next stop: the hospital where the bodies were being taken.
I should add it worked out impeccably we happened to be in a cab with Palestinians when the news broke. It put us in-the-know and also gave us language and understanding of the event, plus the mobility to be dropped off right outside the hospital before Abed went to park the van. Also, it was amazing we “happened” to be tugged out of Bethlehem that day, particularly because the scene was 1/4 mile from my apartment and the circle of chaos and closed streets was encompassing.
Thousands of people swarmed the hospital’s front and back entrances.
Three corpses on stretchers were passed overhead, rafts on waves of sobriety and hysterics. The grand entrance of one body was buoyed by one incessant phrase and one volume: desperately loud.
(which means “Allah (God) is great!”)
Women wept. Weak-kneed boys and girls sobbed, held up by a friend in the same way a man with a broken ankle would be.
Family and friends of the dead.
My tears were already shed. Floodgates released at age 16. That evening I walked into the news coverage I watched for 12 years, the scenes which had once broken my own ability to stand. I was well-trained for the moment which drank me up that fated March Wednesday.
Glug glug glug drank up I was. I prayed. I watched. I slid through the tense multitude to get a better look at this and that. I prayed for kids I saw. I prayed and engaged with the crumbling women, the youth staggering into the ER screaming, “I’m not going to let this go! I’m going to do something to get back at them for this!”, the friends of mine I bumbled into that night (it seemed a large portion of Bethlehem was there), the ones who collapsed under the agony of sadness and were toted into the ER swollen with families, the speechless bystanders. I prayed and engaged with this little city of David, Bethlehem:
the Only One
who could ever turn
this tide of grief, revenge, and consummate oppression.
There is an oft-quoted verse in the book of Esther which says more about why I was at the hospital that dark night:
“And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?”
After leaving the hospital, David and I filled a previous commitment to visit a family in the camp: the father in the family “happened” to be the Minister of Labor in Bethlehem. Then we went to get the wooden cross and visit the woodworker’s family. Everyone was in a hubbub over the night’s events; and there we were, the hospital’s clamor still affecting our heartbeats; and our heartbeats still affecting the hospital’s clamor: our peace a holy residue of promise and hope.
for such a time as this.
for murder scenes and war zones, troubled neighborhoods and troubled neighbors,
for places in deep need, for people longing for hope,
for nations, for cities, for individuals,
for such a time as this.
We must not be afraid, but confident. We must not be afraid of “darkness”, but confident in who we are:
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. The answer to the problem. The peace to the chaos. The hope to the hopeless.
We should rejoice when we get the privilege of being all these things,
whether at a crime scene in Bethlehem or a parking lot at the mall. Light belongs in darkness.
“This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you,
that God is Light,
and in Him there is no darkness at all.”
A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl.
I usually say I don’t believe in bad days, and I don’t – in that everyday with God is still guaranteed to be moving from glory to glory (even when I don’t observe that with my eyes); it is at its core, a GOOD day. However, rough spots happen. Personally, I’m terrifically exasperated and looking for resolution in the midst of it. I’m living in the divine tension of resting in knowing God is moving on my behalf, and also doing the part I am responsible for. I’m stir crazy and yet, I simply want to be still. I want to go somewhere wonderfully intoxicating like the Amazon and yet I want to simply be in Redding and drink the luscious stars in the night sky. I want to see whole cities engulfed by love and I want the homeless guy I passed today on the street to be engulfed too. In all that I am waiting for several major things to take flight. Like a housecat who sits at the door calmly waiting to be let in, and moments later is digging her claws deep into the door in frustration and eagerness – I am torn between patience and impatience.
These times are an opportunity to let love lead, not emotions, not circumstances, but the forever FULL love of God. For me they are a time to practice the fine art of rejoicing when I don’t feel like it. One’s soul, the seat of one’s emotions, is subject to one’s spirit, the part of you seated with Christ in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6) and thus innocuous to one’s atmosphere. God turns even exasperation into joy. Sometimes it’s merely about getting alone with Him in quiet, laying down, and chatting with Him – not for answers, but just to chat. It’s like having a conversation with a good friend – you don’t only talk when you “need” answers, you talk to get to know the person and to be known by her.
If you are in the exasperation zone, I declare NEWNESS to you today. Today is a day when mountains will move, peace will come, and HOPE will rise. God wants to meet with you. He wants to talk with you. He wants to share His heart with you. He LOVES you and accepts you fully. He champions your dreams. He is your GOOD Father.
I heard this song for the first time yesterday and it was like eating Ritz crackers as a six year old with a tummy ache:
calming, strengthening, and reassuring.
And so to all who are called to blaze new trails through thick terrain, take heart. The reason your journey is irresistible is YOU WERE BORN FOR THIS. The world needs you to take your place in history and in the future.
You can do it! And with great glory, you will. The world awaits the revealing of the sons and daughters of God.
As a friend recently wrote,
“Cynicism is the language of cowards – always think the worst, you’ll never be disappointed.
And as the psalmist wrote, “I would have despaired, but I know I will see God’s goodness here on earth” (Psalm 27:13)
Jesus is the HOPE of the nations. How can we not have hope when the embodiment of hope lives inside us?
Make that new path. Pave that road. Believe change is possible. Believe Jesus. Generations to come will be grateful you did.
I have been thinking a lot lately about bravery and doing what has never been done. Amelia Earhart is one of my heroes. I once saw her in a vision in which she looked intently in my eyes and said, “No one understands what I am doing.” Then she hopped in her plane and flew away. That moment was pivotal for me. I knew what she meant. I imagined the flak she received for her “foolish” confidence and her grandiose vision. I thought of the eye-rolls she must have endured when sharing her dreams. Yet, she knew there was more in her breakthrough than herself – there was a future full of millions of people. She made a way through flight. Now, most people think little of flying – and thousands of people do it daily. In some sense, Amelia saw this. From far off, from eighty years ago, she SAW it. She knew she was blazing a new trail that would soon become well-traveled. Her “unthinkable” dream, has become our norm.
And so it shall be for peace and flourishing in the Middle East.
“The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.”
(I painted the above painting in worship at BSSM one lovely March day this year. It’s called, “A Brave New World.”)

What could be more delicious than a freshly prepared drink made by yourself? Not a single juice, even the most famous and popular brand, can be compared with a freshly squeezed drink. To do this, you need a citrus juicer and fresh juicy fruits of the genus of citrus. In such a drink, a maximum of vitamins remains and there will be absolutely no difficulties in its preparation.
If you like fresh juice from fresh lemons, grapes or orange, you should get a citrus juicer from here. With the help of such devices you get a great, invigorating drink, rich in vitamins.
In order to choose the right machine, you need to pay attention to its characteristics such as: power, volume of capacity for collecting juice, the degree of filtration. It is also important to which manufacturer the equipment belongs. You need to familiarize yourself with the characteristics of various models, consider all the options, read reviews or consult with the seller in the store.
It would not hurt to view the various reviews on specific devices, to pay attention to the degree of vibration, efficiency and the quality of the juice, which comes as a result of spinning. For home use, do not purchase a professional device. If you are going to prepare the juice for yourself and your family members, a hand-held machine is also unlikely to work. The ideal option would be an automatic citrus juicer.
Automatic citrus juicer
The automatic device for the production of juice has a very interesting principle of operation, in which a person takes minimal participation. You will only need to collect the juicer and prepare the fruit. Next, citrus fruits are cut in half, juice is squeezed out of the halves, and the peel is discarded in a special container. At the exit, we get pure juice. Due to the fact that the skin of the fruit is not affected, the bitter essential oils do not get into the drink, and it comes out tasty. Before operating the unit, it is necessary to study the instructions for use.
Manual citrus juicers
Manual juicers are cheap and easy to use. There are several types of manual devices for the "extraction" of juice:
---> A device similar to a large-sized garlic bowl. Such an apparatus is used when it is necessary to obtain a small amount of juice (for example, a couple of spoons for salad dressing).
---> A juicer consists of a lamp and a nozzle. This is the most simple device to use: you need to cut the fruit in half and scroll half on the nozzle - the juice will drain into the tank, and the skin will remain in your hands.
---> The juicer-spray has become a novelty in the field of handheld devices. The principle of operation of such a unit is as follows: a rod is inserted into the whole fruit, and in order to get the juice, it is necessary to press the sprayer. A glass of fresh juice with the help of such a device you can hardly get, but for irrigation with lemon juice of fish or meat before baking it will be quite enough.
Professional citrus juicer
In various cafes and bars used professional juicers, designed for the preparation of large quantities of juice. In such devices there is a special cover that protects the hands during operation. The kit comes with several nozzles of various sizes. Such devices have a nice design. But there is no need to purchase such a device for home. Before using such units it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the operating manual so as not to break the expensive device.
Important points when choosing a citrus juicer
Fresh juice, many want to drink in the morning, but few people want to wait a long time until the glass is filled with the desired liquid. What should you pay attention to when choosing a device for getting juice?
---> In order not to spend a lot of time waiting, it is better to purchase a juicer with a lot of power. As a rule, the power of the device can be in the range of 20 - 100 watts. The higher it is, the faster you will get the finished drink.
---> Further, it is recommended to look at the size of the tank to collect the drink. In this case, the principle “the more the better” does not fit. Since fresh juice is better to drink immediately after preparation, the bowls for juice in many devices are designed for a maximum of several glasses. It is also possible to feed the juice directly when it is immediately in the glass, and not in the container for collecting the drink.
---> The spout of the juicer, through which the liquid is fed, should be as comfortable as possible and do not miss a single drop of juice past the glass. It is good if an additional filter is installed on the spout.
---> Pay attention to the presence of the function "reverse" in the juicer (rotation of the cone for squeezing the juice in different directions). With this mode of fruit, you can squeeze more juice.
---> Someone prefers juice with pulp, someone does not - these preferences must also be taken into account when choosing a juicer. Well, if the device has the ability to change the size of the slots of the nozzle (through which the juice passes). The larger the slot in the centrifuge grid, the more pulp you will get as a result.
---> It is worth paying attention to the material used in the device. Thus, the body may be plastic, but the operating elements must be stainless steel.
---> An important detail is the presence of attachments of various sizes. After all, citrus fruits come in different sizes, and to get more juice, you need a nozzle that would best fit the size of the fruit. Do not forget about the holder for fruit. It is necessary for convenience and safety during the extrusion of fresh.
---> Pay attention to the manufacturer of technology. Acquire the device of the company that has established itself in the market, and whose equipment is in high demand and has only positive feedback.
Among the large range of juicers, everyone will be able to choose for themselves the most suitable option for price, power and other characteristics. By purchasing a juicer, you can enjoy a homemade, freshly prepared fresh, rich in vitamins every day.

Are you a camera-dodger?
First, let me say this: I am the mom who dodges cameras and dreads viewing pictures of myself.
I have kids, and the purpose of my life seems to be to make their lives as close to perfect as possible. I find that I am always my last priority (well, aside from cleaning my bedroom, that might be my actual last priority. It is a DISASTER.)
Anyway, I feel you, moms who dodge my camera.
You spent all your energy getting the kids washed, dressed, brushed, and coached for pictures and there is no energy leftover for yourself.
You might hire me to take pictures of your kids because you LOVE pictures of your kids. I get that too, I’m the same way — a zillion pictures of the kids will never be enough, but maybe one picture with me in it per year is as much as I can force myself to do.
Let’s take a moment and think about family photos from another angle.
Instead of just thinking about what you want in a family picture, take a step back and imagine for a moment what you children will someday want to see in these family pictures.
They want to see YOU … their beloved parents.
I understand that when you look in the mirror, all you see are flaws. I understand because I feel the same way.
But when your children look at you, they see love. I know this because this is how I still view my own mother. If I focus hard enough, yes, I can tell that she doesn’t look the same way she did 20-30 years ago, but to me she is beauty personified. Here is a picture of my parents from about a month ago:
When she sees pictures of herself, maybe she sees wrinkles. But I see a lifetime of beautiful smiles and the love she poured out over her 5 kids. I am so grateful that she allows me to take pictures of her, because I do treasure them.
The bottom line is this: your children might not know it yet, but they want and need pictures of their parents. They will treasure those pictures for the rest of their lives, and their children will as well. Remember that the next time you are planning a family photo session.
Then find a way to get yourself into the picture.
To help with that goal, I have two great options to boost your confidence and get you photo-ready:
Option 1: Pamper yourself
If you have a favorite salon or spa, get an appointment for shortly before your photo session, and get pampered! Maybe schedule a facial the day before, or a nice haircut or hairdo the day of the session.
My friend Valerie (of Valerie’s Mobile Hair) can come to your home and do your hair and makeup. That way you can be confident that you look your best for your photo shoot. Valerie will get you feeling pretty and confident – she is great at what she does! Here is a mother-daughter duo she pampered before a photo session:
Option 2: Get help perfecting your personal style
My friend Pam is an image consultant, and she can help you look your best — no matter your size, personal style, lifestyle, or budget.
(1) Come to your home and help you pick out a few perfect outfits using the clothes and accessories already in your closet.
(2) Overhaul your wardrobe top to bottom and help you create style from chaos
(3) Overhaul your wardrobe and organize a unique shopping experience to buy the clothes you need to complete your wardrobe.
Pam will have you feeling and looking more confident and stylish in just a few hours, and she can train you to keep that new confidence and style going forward.
Visit Pam’s website here: Positive Reflections
Seriously, Pam has a gift. Check her out. I’ll wait.
If these options might help you, send me a message and let’s set something up! I think you are worth it. Don’t be shy – do it for the kids. 😉

New york city wrongful death and survivorship lawyers
In accident claims and cases, the types and kinds of fatalities and serious injuries involved are limitless. Aside from liability issues and determining fault, the serious injuries suffered are very real, painful and often permanent. Permanent, disabling injuries not only change the life of those injured – but their families as well.
Though many serious injuries and the resultant pain and disabilities are obvious, observable and visible, many are less apparent – though no less painful, disabling and permanent. The nature, duration, extent and possible permanency of the injuries suffered must be thoroughly evaluated and established for any claim or law suit. In many states, for certain claims and suits, injury categories have been established by law. New York also has similar laws for certain types of accidents.
Like most states, New York has laws defining the severity of injuries in various types of claims and cases. In New York, like other states, when someone is injured in an accident involving a motor vehicle, there are certain “no-fault” statutes which apply; most notably, to define what is a “serious injury.” Also, if someone is injured at work, their ability to recovery for injuries, generally, is limited to workers’ compensation benefits. Though an injured employee cannot directly sue an employer, there are instances where a “third-party” claim or suit might be brought against other persons or entities possibly at fault for the accident. Under New York law, the nature, duration, extent and possible permanency of an employee’s injuries must meet the New York Workers’ Compensation Law definition of “grave injury.”
There are other examples where New York law may affect or limit the ability of any injured claimant to sue and/or recover for their injuries. That is why it is critical to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.
So what is a serious or grave injury? Though not exhaustive, examples of serious injury categories include motor vehicle accident cases and those involving workplace (often construction site) accidents.
Motor Vehicle (No-Fault)
Article 51 of the Insurance Law provides that a plaintiff in a personal injury action arising out of negligence in the use or operation of a motor vehicle must establish that he/she has incurred a basic economic loss exceeding $50,000 or must establish that he/she has suffered “serious injury.”
Insurance Law § 5104(a), (b). Serious injury is defined as personal injury which results in one of the following:
- Significant disfigurement
- Loss of a fetus
- Permanent loss of use of a body organ, member, function or system
- Permanent consequential limitation of a body organ or member
- Significant limitation of use of a body function or system
- Medically determined injury or impairment of a non-permanent nature which prevents the injured person from performing substantially all of the material acts which constitute such person’s usual and customary daily activities for not less than 90 days during the 180 days immediately following the occurrence of the injury or impairment. Insurance Law §5102(d).
New York Labor Law (construction site accidents)
Under New York Workers’ Compensation Law Section 11 “grave injury” means one or more of the following:
- permanent and total loss of use or amputation of an arm, leg, hand or foot
- loss of multiple fingers
- loss of multiple toes
- paraplegia or quadriplegia
- total and permanent blindness
- total and permanent deafness
- loss of nose
- loss of ear
- permanent and severe facial disfigurement
- loss of an index finger
- an acquired injury to the brain caused by an external physical force resulting in permanent total disability
Fatalities (Wrongful Death & Survivorship)
Traumatic injuries of any kind can result in death, whether instantaneously, shortly after an accident or gradually, over days, weeks or even years. Certain types of injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries, head & face trauma, spinal cord injuries, internal injuries and burns and smoke inhalation often are fatal. Whether from the blunt-force trauma associated with motor vehicle accidents, other impacts and falls or from burns and smoke inhalation caused by fires, fatal injuries are devastating to one’s family, relatives and friends.
To bring a claim or suit for a loved one’s death, there are certain time limitations – or statutes of limitations – within which a lawsuit must be filed or the claimants will be forever time-barred from filing suit.
In New York law, fatalities caused by the negligence, carelessness and recklessness of others, may be compensable should fault be established. In any action brought in New York to recover damages for a person’s death, there are two separate causes of action: specifically, survivorship and wrongful death. A survivorship cause of action is where an estate seeks recovery for a decedent’s conscious pain and suffering prior to death. A wrongful death cause of action, conversely, belongs to those distributees of a decedent’s estate who have suffered pecuniary (economic) loss occasioned by the death.
Statute of Limitations
The applicable statute of limitations will differ depending on the cause of action asserted. The New York statute of limitations for a survivorship cause of action is three (3) years from the date of accident or one (1) year from the date of death, whichever is longer. However, in accordance with Section 5-4.2 of New York’s Estates, Powers and Trusts Law [EPTL], the statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim is two (2) years from the date of death. Though certain exceptions may apply, it’s always best to seek a legal consultation as soon as practicable following an accident.
In New Jersey, the applicable statute of limitations for both survivorship and wrongful death claims & suits is two (2) years.
A survivorship action is brought by a decedent’s estate to compensate for the decedent’s own pain and suffering prior to death. In order for an estate to prevail in a survivorship claim for a decedent’s conscious pain and suffering, there must be evidence that the decedent exhibited “cognitive awareness” prior to death. Said another way, the estate must prove that the decedent was conscious and aware at some level for a period of time after the accident and endured pain and suffering before dying.
The elements considered by a jury to award compensation for a decedent’s conscious pain and suffering include the time interval between injury and death, degree of consciousness, likely severity of pain, likely suffering experienced and the apprehension of one’s own impending death. New York courts also have recognized a decedent’s “pre-impact terror” as an element of conscious pain and suffering.
A separate cause of action for wrongful death is where decedent’s survivors may seek compensation for economic losses, both incurred and anticipated in the future. In New York, the elements of a wrongful death claim or suit, generally, include: (a) a death, (b) caused by the wrongful conduct of another, (c) giving rise to a cause of action the deceased could have pursued if the death had not occurred, (d) the survival of one or more persons who have suffered loss as a result of the death and (e) damages.
Unlike a survivorship claim, only distributees, as defined in New York’s EPTL 4-1.1, can share in the proceeds of a wrongful death action. Because of this distinction, the claimants in the survivorship claim may differ from those in the wrongful death claim.
The damages awarded in New York wrongful death actions are recoverable by a decedent’s distributees to compensate them for their own economic loss occasioned by the death of a loved one; and, consequently, are not considered part of the deceased individual’s estate to be distributed either via intestate distribution or the terms of a will. EPTL Section 5-4.3 limits an award of damages in a wrongful death action to “fair and just” compensation for the pecuniary injuries resulting from decedent’s death. The recoverable damages may include loss of support, voluntary assistance and a possible inheritance, as well as medical expenses incident to the decedent’s death and decedent’s funeral expenses.
In order to establish a right to a wrongful death recovery, claimants need only show a reasonable expectation of support from the decedent. Once that burden is met, the calculation of the amount of damages is left to the jury. Claimants need not need prove that they were receiving any actual support at the time of decedent’s death.
To establish “fair and just” compensation for a claimant’s economic loss, a New York jury would be asked to consider a number of factors , including the decedent’s: age, health and life expectancy at the time of death; work habits and present position; future earning capacity and potential for career advancement; and, the number, age and life expectancy of decedent’s distributees.
Again, the claimed damages are limited to economic losses. However, in addition to future lost wages & earnings and actual expenses incurred, the loss of future support and services which might otherwise have been performed by the decedent also might be recoverable.
Importantly, if the distributees are minor children, the economic damages claimed (to age 21) also may include loss of parental support, including a parent’s nurture, intellectual, moral and physical training and guidance.

(April 21, 2016)—Anywhere you go, there are people who are on a spiritual quest; or maybe like to meditate? Regardless of what makes one feel at peace, there is a place in New Mexico that you can do that 365 days a year.
Despite anyone’s preconceived notions about Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, it’s a place where artists, eclectics and people who love the healing waters (that most people don’t know about).
As some of you may not know, Truth or Consequences was named Hot Springs, New Mexico, long before it was named T or C.
In efforts to boost tourism, the city changed it’s name to Truth or Consequences, the name of a game show with the promise that they would host the annual festival every year. As the game show lasted from 1940-1988, the name Truth or Consequences remained, and somehow the name Hot Springs, was lost.
For most of my life, I didn’t know that there were hot springs in T or C. Losing the name Hot Springs, New Mexico, may have actually hurt tourism more than boosted it. Anyhow, to make a long story short, there are a lot of things you DON’T know about T or C and this event would be the perfect opportunity to delve into the history of this remarkable small town and what they’re doing now. When we visited last year, we were encountered with some of the nicest people we’ve ever encountered and would love to revisit again. As for for you, Loyal New Mexicans, get out of the house and enjoy this fun-filled event.
Here is a partial listing of options for folks….

Google released their new custom search options earlier today, and reader Jason has already figured out a simple URL hack to keep the sidebar options open with every search.
The problem with the new options is that there is no preference to force the options panel to always stay open; you have to click the Show options link each time you want to view the expanded options. Jason figured out that if you simply add
&tbo=1 to the end of the Google search URL, the new options will automatically show up whenever you perform a search.
Using this knowledge, you can edit your own custom keyword bookmarks to make sure that the options are expanded by default, or use the same technique for any Google search you are using. Thanks, Jason!
While you're polishing your Google search filtering skills, check out how to display the date a web page was first published, find wallpaper with an exact dimensions search, and then filter Google results by date with a URL trick.

Air Studios is up for sale. The recording facility based in Hampstead has served the UK and international music, film and games industry since 1991.
Founded by Sir George Martin after his departure from EMI in the late ‘60s, Air Studios was originally based in central London until its relocation to Lyndhurst Hall. The building was originally a church and missionary school and benefits from world-class acoustics.
The award-winning studio’s facilities have been used by artists including Coldplay, Sir Paul McCartney, Adele and George Michael.
Air Studios and Abbey Road are the only two UK studios with full orchestral recording facilities. The Hampstead-based studio has the capacity to house both a full symphony orchestra with choir simultaneously.
The hexagonal-shaped Lyndhurst Hall studio is the largest studio of the four at the premises and has delivered soundtracks for films including Atonement, Life of Pi and Grand Budapest Hotel. TV show scores recorded at Air include Dr Who, Sherlock and Black Mirror.
Richard Boote, who acquired Air Studios in 2006, said, “The sale of Air Studios is a significant moment in the history of the music industry. Some of the most legendary soundtracks and records of the 20th and 21st century have been recorded at Air Studios and we know that there is still scope to expand and grow the business further. Air Studios and those who work at the studios are hugely important to me and I am sure that this will lead to an exciting new future for the facility.”
Co-owner Paul Woolf added: “It has been a privilege for us both to have served as owners of Air Studios. We now feel it’s time to pass the baton on to the younger generation and look forward to seeing Air Studios continue to produce world-class, award-winning music for years to come.”

OIL SEARCH fought back against the oil price slump, reporting an increase by 72 per cent in net profit for 2014 with the successful start-up of PNG LNG to thank.
Net profit after tax for 2014 was US$353.2 million, the highest profit in the company’s 86 year history.
In a statement, Oil Search said net profit of US$353.2 million included a US$129.6 million after-tax impairment charge, which largely related to the impact of lower oil prices on the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets.
Oil Search’s core profit, excluding impairments, was US$482.8 million, 135% higher than the previous year.
On a conference call, Oil Search managing director Peter Botten said the successful start-up of PNG LNG in April last year resulted in an outstanding year for the company, with record production, record revenue, resulting in record profit for the company.
Production increased by 186% to 19.3 million barrels of oil equivalent for the year, Mr Botten said this result reflected the delivery of PNG LNG and continued performance from existing oil fields.
Sales bumped up 164% on 2013, with Oil Search reporting 17.76 million barrels of oil equivalent in total sales for the 12 month period.
Shareholders were rewarded with a big increase to dividends as a result of the company’s strong full-year results.
Oil Search announced a 2014 final unfranked dividend of eight US cents per share and an additional unfranked four US cents per share as a special dividend.
Mr Botten said he was confident in how Oil Search will manage in the low oil price environment, but acknowledged the need for collaboration and coordination of projects to reduce cost and avoid expensive overlaps in timing.
“We are in great shape- good shape at least – to manage the low oil and gas price environment. We need to be prudent, we certainly don’t need to panic,” Mr Botten said in relation to cutting costs in 2015.
A reduction of about 20% in the company’s 2015 capital expenditure budget was announced in response to the fall in oil prices.
Exploration and evaluation costs are reduced by 25%, production capex down 20% and corporate capex cut by 40%, Oil Search announced in a statement.
Mr Botten said the company has a strong balance sheet and liquidity position which will help deliver future projects, with the focus being on supporting the high returning LNG expansion and development projects.

Plenty of people are already looking ahead to the outcome of the 2010 elections, in particular what happens to the Democrats’ control of Congress. The party of an incumbent President almost always loses seats in Washington in an off-year election, and with the Dems having just enough votes to stop a filibuster in the Senate, Republicans have a powerful incentive to stall Barack Obama’s agenda as long as possible: they know full well that these few months are likely the high point of his influence in his (presumably) first term.
But if you really want to see a shift in power in Washington for the next decade or longer, pay attention to who wins the STATE legislatures next November. The state representatives and state senators elected 15 months from now will preside over the rawest political act in America: the redrawing of congressional and legislative district lines based on the results of the decennial census. Redistricting is legislative sausage-making at its finest, with members jockeying to preserve or extend their own power-bases at the expense of enemies. In the process, they usually try to forward the overall interests of their particular party or faction as best they can.
The results can be ludicrous at times (at least one member of Congress is reputed to hold her seat because her colleagues in the state senate so despised her that they happily tailored a Congressional district to her needs), but they can also be flat-out obscene. Redistricting in the early 1990s was bad enough, with certain Democratic urban legislators teaming up with suburban Republicans to sketch sprawling monsters linking scattered pockets of (presumably) like-minded voters, in the process often creating a slew of safe Republican districts enveloping a handful of others packed to the gills with minority and other reliably Democratic voters.
Those early efforts were the first to benefit from database modeling of proposed districts down to block level, and even though new plans often took hours or even days to run through the mainframe, the practical political results were impressive at the time. But compared with what Tom DeLay achieved in Texas in 2003, they were strictly amateur. Pushing the new Republican leadership of the Texas Legislature to RE-redistrict for the 2004 elections (even though they were only in power because of lines newly drawn in 2001), he managed to eliminate enough incumbent Democrats in Congress to shift the state’s delegation in Washington from rough parity to a 21-11 Republican advantage. By contrast, Texas voters split about 55-45 Republican overall in 2004 –hooray for democracy!
If I sound cynical about the redistricting process, I have a right: my first substantive political experience was working for a member of the Texas House of Representatives during a special session devoted to redrawing those precious political lines in 1992, during which at one point I quite literally walked into a smoke-filled room. Right out of college and drenched (not wet) behind the ears, I glimpsed a world I didn’t really understand — but watching the rubber meet the road of politics was a most enlightening experience all around.
Redistricting can be ugly regardless of which party is in charge, but it’s also going to happen, regardless of which party is in charge. So if you really want to influence the political course of this country over the next decade (at least), you have the chance — if you work to elect state legislators whose views align with yours, and if you get started NOW.
For starters, individual donors, volunteers and voices can often have a much larger effect on a local race like one for state representative than they can on a state-level or national election. Legislative races may be more expensive than they were 20 years ago, but they still run on a much smaller scale and usually with much less money to spend on television. Consequently, individual donations matter more, as do individual endorsements and individual volunteer hours. So does direct voter-to-voter outreach — with fewer messages filling the airwaves, the contents of an email from a friend may be the only thing someone remembers when he or she goes to vote.
But WHEN you help matters as much as HOW you help, since time and money spent early in the campaign process usually pay off disproportionately — donating 10 hours a week NOW will probably help a candidate much more than donating 10 hours during the week right before the election. Plus, the primary elections are all-important across much of the country, again in part because of gerrymandering, and they’ll start up next Spring. So get cracking! If you want to see a particular brand of congressmember populate Washington, now’s your chance — provided that you’re willing to put in the time and/or the money.
Let’s explore the implications of this idea for online politics a little further, in a couple of upcoming articles.

Shri Mataji: (Addressing the room). There are lots of people who are seekers today. That’s how I have come back again.
And the truth is, that we are the Spirit. Now in these modern times when people only talk of science, people cannot believe that there is something like the Spirit and that there can be all-pervading power, a subtle pervading power which does thinking for us, organizing for us and which also loves us.
Some [UNCLEAR] think too much of it. [UNCLEAR] important so [UNCLEAR] equally important.
But if you have a scientific attitude towards it, then it can be proved. If you take it as a hypothesis, then it can be proved that there is an all-pervading power, subtle power that exists. Because it is the rule of English, and then later on followed by the certain attitude of intellectuals, we should say, we have tried to sort of put some clouds on this truth which was there. But it exists. It is there. And, in Sahaja Yoga, we can prove the existence of this all-pervading power.
That means you can feel it on your fingertips. This all-pervading power, you can feel it as a cool breeze on your fingertips. And when this power which we call as Kundalini rises, it pierces through six centres, subtle centres, and emerges out, of your fontanelle bone area, which we call it as “tat”. And that’s how you get your self-realization. Now we had saints in this country, so many saints have been there, and they were people of extraordinary character. They never did anything wrong, they never murdered anyone, they never hankered after money, they didn’t trouble anyone, and they were such righteous people. And nobody told them to be. They were just like that, they were like angels. And now the time has come, that/then we have to become like that. This is a very big evolutionary step, one more jump. We have come to the stage of human beings, we have to jump one more where we have to become saintly, in the sense we become righteous, virtuous, very powerful, dynamic as well as very compassionate. So these things have to happen. Have been predicted by many people. And the time has come in this Kalayuga, as they call it.
People are so much under pressure, that they are seeking much more than ever did before. This trouble of life is too much, and they have no absolute answers. Everybody says they are right. But nobody has been able to prove that it is an Absolute. In Sahaja Yoga, you can prove it, that it is an Absolute. Because you can feel it on your fingertips, even on your hands, you can feel it. And then if you can decode it, and you should know what are the centres five plus, seven centres, left-hand side, emotional side and [UNCLEAR] mental side, you can easily even diagnose the disease of a person. You can cure. You can bring mental peace to a person.
Now people talk of peace foundations. But they have no peace in them. Those who get Nobel prizes for peace, I have seen they have no peace in themselves. You don’t have peace within yourself, how can you talk of foundation?
So, you become a person who is in a witness state. That means you become thoughtless. And you can see you are aware, very aware. And you can see the beauty in art, the joy of that image within yourself without thinking about it.
Apart from that, the whole system transforms into a personality which feels the collective consciousness [UNCLEAR] “Samuhik Chetna”. Now, this collective consciousness is vibrations means vibrations, you can feel another person’s centres. You can feel your centres. Sitting down here you can feel the centres of anybody you want to. Because it is like a very subtle ether. Into every, anyone Kundalini [UNCLEAR], that knowledge is there.
And this is our heritage. [UNCLEAR] is our heritage. Science is not our heritage. Science has no humanity. The countries who have gone, too far in science have to sit back now. Because it has created problems. Tremendous problems of humanity, social life and even…(pause)
Question: [UNCLEAR] people from history?
Shri Mataji: So people have taken to extreme quality and, ah, democracy, democracy. And somebody said no, communism is alright. But both are wrong, in their own style.
Communism is wrong because the wealth is of [UNCLEAR]. Now say, I have got powers supposing, of healing others, curing others, doing everything, joy, everything then I am capitalist. But I can’t keep it to myself. I have to give it to others. So I am a communist. So these theories are artificial because they deal with material things. And material things cannot be useful. Because in a sense, economic wants are not satiable, in general. That doesn’t mean.. you should have material things. But there should be a balance. Out of the way they have gone to produce now, plastic. In America now they have created mountains and mountains, in bags. Mountains and mountains of plastic, they don’t know what to do. Cannot dump it in the sea. You cannot burn it. Now they have got acid rain, another problem which is such a big problem that they are saying at least 70% of their trees will be lost in acid. The ecological problem, then all the ports you will find the problem, on the seashores where they are full of trash from the many ships which, they have carried all these oils and everything.
So out of proportion they have…and we have to know that machines are for us, we are not for machines. Now, they have become the slave of the machine, they can’t take it. You will be surprised that in England, you cannot get anything fresh, everything has to be deep freeze?. If you want to take something fresh, then they will say, a fresh pizza will have this type of [UNCLEAR], this kind of insecticide, another will have this kind of poison [UNCLEAR] it will cause you cancer. Every day there’s in the newspaper it’s “don’t eat this because it will cause cancer”.
So this artificiality..(pause)..has created this problem. We have got too [UNCLEAR/proud]. We have to learn from them. Now they are waiting for a shock. Anything is possible. Now, America has taken to drugs. At least sixty-five per cent of people in America are nervous [UNCLEAR/wrecks], they are twitching their eyes, twitching their faces, hands start shaking like this. I mean, you won’t find people like Indians there. I mean you get quite nervous; their hands are shaking like this. Young people. And drug addiction. Drug addiction is a tremendous problem. That has come because they are not satisfied with life. They want to run away, its an escape.
But why are they trying to escape, if they are affluent, which they are? And in the most affluent countries like say, Switzerland, and Sweden, Norway, these are the most affluent. In those countries, there is a competition going on, in committing suicides. So Indians must [UNCLEAR] of course we have to come in the centre. We are too much materialistic; too much bound by conditionings and our wrong ideas about God, in general, the caste system. Dominating women everywhere. And all kinds of injustices in the name of religion, scheduled caste this, that. Religion cannot be unjust, cannot. But it has happened. Because it has gone into the hands of people who are not religious, actually. They just claim they are. They are mostly fundamentalists.
It has to go into the hands of people who are saints. But the saints when they came here they were tortured. That’s how spirituality is on the wrong lines. If it comes to the right side, right, proper righteous way, you will be amazed, Sahaja Yoga you can increase the yield of the crops ten times. Some with that you can have…I had a sunflower which was so big a plant. I produced out of sixty kilos of rice, one-thousand-four-hundred kilos of the husks, rice, we can say. One-thousand-four-hundred that, in one acre. because this Chaitanya starts flowing through you. This All Pervading power starts flowing through with that you can do anything, there are many..but.. [UNCLEAR]
Question: How can this power? You mean this Kundalini, Sahaja Yoga and all.
Shri Mataji: Pardon?
Question: The power Sahaja Yoga, transforming…
Shri Mataji: Yes.
Question: That is actually Kundalini Yoga.
Shri Mataji: Yes, Sahaja Yoga. Sahaja. Sa means with, ja means born. Born with you. It is within yourself. In the triangular bone lies this power. It’s like any instrument has to be put to the mains. In the same way, we are [UNCLEAR]. Then we start acting like a computer.
And the whole transformation takes place. Now the Sahaja Yoga is working out in quite.. [UNCLEAR].
In Russia, we have very good people. Russian people, I don’t know how to say, they are very silent minded, their bent of mind is, they are very intelligent. And when I went there, I was amazed at the way these people accept it. Absolutely. Two thousand people in the hall, some were outside. I didn’t know what to do. They said, “Mother” when I came out they said, “Mother, aren’t you going to give us Self Realisation?” And I said “Alright tomorrow you come along, you sit outside. And all those who were inside, and outside were there in the morning. It’s spreading like a religion. People are just taking to Sahaja Yoga.
And we had called some from doctors there, they came there. They gave some papers. Also, we had three doctors in Delhi who had done M.D. in Sahaja Yoga on different subjects of, [UNCLEAR], asthma and psychosomatic diseases. There they saw it, they understood it and accepted it. And the doctor who is in charge of the department there. Immediately he said, I am not going to visit anymore. And he gave us an independent charge, independent organisation. We are the only ones who are an independent organization. So see their alertness, see they are [UNCLEAR]. And it is our heritage. You see, the problem is, so difficult to take to that.. [UNCLEAR]..talked of Atmasakshatkar (Self Realisation).
All the saints have talked about it. And it should not be difficult. Where they have not done anything about religion, how they jump in. Because there is no conditioning. Because of our so-called religious conditioning, we are spoiled.
Question: In what way is it religious conditioning..other forms of yoga, so many forms of yoga?
Shri Mataji: See, there are other forms like you can say, Hatha Yoga is there. But actually, the modern Hatha Yoga is not the Hatha Yoga. Because it has to be “Ha” and “Tha”. “Ha” is the Surya, that is the right side and “Tha” is the left side. So the modern Sahaja Yoga does not consider?…[UNCLEAR]. They just do work, right side exercises, this that.
This was Patanjali’s work was done, thousands of years back when we had four ashramas. First of all, Brahmacharya. At that time, they used to select some boys for realisation or they used to cleanse people who used to [UNCLEAR].
Question: This was conceived by Patanjali?
Shri Mataji: Beg pardon?
Question: Was this was conceived by Patanjali?
Shri Mataji: So he accepted it. It was conceived much before that. You can say there were three types of movements in our country. The first one was where the Veda, started where they [UNCLEAR/”vedha”]. Now Veda also [UNCLEAR] “vidha”. “Vidha” and “bodh”, means you should feel it on your central nervous system. It is not mental. Vedas were done just to develop the right side, find out about elements. How we can excite the elements, how we can make them awake for us. That is called the Vedas.
Left side one is the Bhakti by which people tried to call God, invoke Him and make Him.. [UNCLEAR].
The third one was done by Nagpanthees and also [UNCLEAR] and all these people. They worked on the central path [UNCLEAR]. Very, very few people really achieved. We can say that in the tree of life, there were one or two flowers. At the time of Janaka, only one person Nachiketa was given realization by him. He had to go through lots of “pareekshas”, lots of tests were taken and then he was given realisation.
But today I feel its the blossom time. And there are many people who can get realization. So the modern Sahaja Yoga, you can think. Sahaja Yoga is a very ancient thing, nothing new. But Sahaja Yoga which is working en masse today, it has two specialities. The first one you can give it en masse, you can give it to many people. Thousands of people can get their realization. Secondly, without doing any manner, without doing [UNCLEAR], whatever may be the person, he has to first feel [UNCLEAR/awakened]. So when the waking takes place in the Brahma Nadi, there is a little light comes and the person can see what’s wrong with him. Like say you are holding a snake and it is dark, you cant see. You might say it’s not a snake, its a rope. But there’s a little light, you can see and throw it away yourself I don’t have to tell you. In the same way, a little light of the Spirit comes. And in that, and you become your own master. You become your own Guru. You don’t need anyone. And then you yourself correct [UNCLEAR]. And the third thing, you have all the powers. So you can give realization to others. You can cure yourself. And that’s how you know the Spirit.
Like Mr Murthy now. He’s [UNCLEAR]. He’s from [UNCLEAR]. He came to see me in Bombay. He had some physical problem. His wife had some physical problem. They got cured. Then he came down. Nobody saw me in my car. He came. And he gave realization to others and started the session. Then I went there.
So like one enlightened light can enlighten another light. But by itself, it cannot be enlightened. And this is for the emancipation of the whole Earth. See how these people here who are changed or [UNCLEAR], you won’t believe, these are the people from countries like Germany or England, they are so changed, so changed. When they come to this country, they touch this country with their forehead. They say [UNCLEAR].
You can’t pay for it. It’s a living thing. It’s a living thing. Firstly, you cannot pay God money because God does not understand money. You cannot. Those who live on God’s money are UNCLEAR]. And this is something like the sprouting of a seed. You put the seed in the Mother Earth, it [UNCLEAR/comes out] by itself. You don’t have to pay to the Mother Earth. She does it inside. In the same way, it starts within you, the process of evolution. You don’t have to pay for evolution. This is one thing one should understand. And then it works out.
Question: How is it that good people have some problems? Disease [UNCLEAR].
Shri Mataji: Problems. Very simple. You see, supposing a tree is sick, which is there. Now if you try to treat the leaves you cannot cure that. You have to go to the roots. So we go to the roots. And in the roots of our being, there are seven centres. And these seven centres when they go out of order, then these all problems start. Some will be physical, some will be emotional, some will be financial, and some will be [UNCLEAR]. So once the Kundalini starts rising, she puts these centres right. By they get connected, you get integrated, plus she nourishes. And then, when shes connected, all the time you are nourished.
Question: Kundalini is raised through Yoga, Sahaja Yoga?
Shri Mataji: Beg pardon?
Question: Kundalini is raised through Sahaja Yoga.
Shri Mataji: You see, we call it as Sahaja Yoga because Sahaja Yoga has many other things apart from Kundalini. First of all, it establishes a very pure innate wisdom that means, you become absolutely righteous. And you become very powerful, very much very powerful, very magnetic. And you are helped by the all-pervading power. So you don’t have any darr (Hindi: means fear). Whatever you decide, it happens. So you do not have to worry or hanker about anything. So Kundalini Yoga may be a little bit you raise it, then you stop.
After raising the Kundalini, when you are connected you have to grow. Not only just a sprouting an of the Kundalini, but you have to become a tree. So the becoming is important. Like you are of a religion, you can call yourself Hindu, Muslim anything, but you can commit any sin. Not in Sahaja Yoga. Once you get it, you are innately [UNCLEAR]. You just don’t do it.
And we are that. Human beings are that glorious thing. We have no idea about yourself. We don’t know all that. That’s the main point. Once we know ourselves, then it is tremendous. Tremendous. After all, God has not made us just for the waste of time. There must be some purpose.
Question: [UNCLEAR] speaking in [UNCLEAR/Manor]?
Shri Mataji: [UNCLEAR/Manor]..two nights I am speaking there [UNCLEAR]. And we have a very nice centre. And we have many people there, who are very capable. And they can help other people establish themselves. In the beginning, you have too little bit, establish yourself to know where [UNCLEAR] It is very easy to do. And it works out.
Shri Mataji: [UNCLEAR]..a statement? (To Sahaja Yogi): Have you said anything?
Sahaja Yogi clarifies: [UNCLEAR/feeling?]
Shri Mataji: Which is not. We have had so many people [UNCLEAR]. Only thing first people feel a cool breeze coming out before that sometimes there will be heat coming out that’s all. On their hands, they feel [UNCLEAR], nothing has happened. Except for very few people like Rajneesh’s disciples, collapsed, what can I do? They came to my program, they just collapsed. So, I mean, they are people who have done really wrong things.
Question: How is this practice of Sahaja Yoga, some [UNCLEAR/form of meditation]?
Shri Mataji: No, you become. You are in meditation. You don’t have to meditate. But cleansing has to be done morning and evening. Five minutes morning and evening ten minutes. Not too much time. But it cleanses you completely. Then once you are established, there is no point.
Question: For Sahaja Yoga, you start all the centres in India.
Shri Mataji: All?
Question: You manage all the centres?
Shri Mataji: Yes, they manage that. We have centres all over. We have in Bombay, I don’t know how many, maybe more than one dozen, but…
Sahaja Yogi: Eighteen.
Shri Mataji: Ah?
Sahaja Yogi: Eighteen centres.
Shri Mataji: (In Marathi) Kiti? (How Many?)
Sahaja Yogi: Eighteen. One eight.
Shri Mataji: Eighteen centres.
Question: Are you paying any money?
Shri Mataji: No, no not paying. But only knowledge. And then collectively being there. And they listen to my lectures. And understand more. But you see, I have given at least, I don’t know how many, a thousand lectures in English, Marathi, Hindi. So they try to understand further. How to live, how to work it out. Also, we have music. We have international marriages. Very interesting. People are very joyous. Happy. So there is hope for all of us. (Laughing).Only we have to …UNCLEAR.
Note: There is a break in the recording here and then it resumes again. Q&A seems to have gone on without being recorded.
Shri Mataji: ..Supposed to be absolutely useless. And passed with flying colours, got scholarships. Recently one boy came and told me he got ninety-four per cent marks in. [UNCLEAR].He’s in Sahaja Yoga. So it can be really marvellous. And you don’t feel tired. See now, my age is sixty-seven years I have completed. And I am travelling, all kinds of things I am doing. All the time I am travelling. Forty nations, you can imagine.
Question: You travelled through forty nations?
Shri Mataji: Yes, above forty. But I think twenty abroad and on this side, Australia. I have been to Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, maybe Japan also. Then I have come back to all the European countries. I have been to South America, Colombia [UNCLEAR].
Question: And Sahaja Yoga is known in more countries..all countries where in.. ?
Shri Mataji: Yes.
Sahaja Yogi: Mother is the greatest traveller [UNCLEAR]. I don’t think…[UNCLEAR]
Shri Mataji: Yes. Even my husband who represents a hundred and thirty-four nations. He tells me you are [UNCLEAR/worse] than me.
Shri Mataji: I don’t feel because see if you are there, you are there. If you think you are travelling, there may be a problem. I never think .. if I am sitting here, I am sitting on the plane, I am sitting there, it doesn’t matter. If you are with yourself you don’t even feel bored. Enjoy it. As [UNCLEAR] said you are never alone than alone. That’s the situation. And such nice people coming on?. We have many experts, scientists but we have lots of.. [UNCLEAR for almost 30 seconds with side conversations over the audio].
Shri Mataji: We have other projects also. Schools that we have got [UNCLEAR]. Now we have those started. We have got an ashram also. There also we are; we want to teach our children about electrical work. Those children who fail in eighth class, there is no future. So we teach them all these things. Brickwork and electrical work, plumbing work, all these kinds of things. So they have something. Some sort of depth in their hands.
So, there are many ways by which you can improve the capacity of the body. And then you can, it improves the capability, I don’t know why. You will be surprised, there are Indian Sahaja Yogis they have become so artistic. Very [UNCLEAR]. You can imagine. Very poor people also. There was one poor buy who got scholarships and now he is a graduate in the art college. You must have heard about J.J. School of Arts. He graduated with flying colours. He got scholarships for art. He was a very ordinary boy.
Question: And tomorrow you are giving just a lecture about this?
Shri Mataji: No, no, no I am giving realization also. And also with that.
Question: What methods of realization do you..how do you..?
Shri Mataji: After realization, you feel the cool breeze in your hands, in the beginning. You feel the cool breeze out of your head. You feel very peaceful and calm.
Question: I mean [UNCLEAR/during] lecture?
Shri Mataji: No, no, I just ask them to put their hands towards me [UNCLEAR]. But then you can do it, once you are realized.
Question: How long does it take?
Shri Mataji: The question was asked to Ramadasa.
Sahaja Yogi: You can have it now (laughing).
Shri Mataji: No, the question was asked to Ramadasa. Ramadasa said “tatshan”, that moment. But there should be the authority to do it and there should be the one who wants to take it. So “tatshan” was the word he used. He was the guru of Shivaji. He said that “tatshan”, that moment. They all have talked about it. Kabira has talked about it, all of them have talked about it. Specially Gyaneshwara, have talked about it. If we have the knowledge, knowledge of the roots we have, they have knowledge of the tree. But the tree can’t reach out to the roots. We have to learn it.
Question: You think all people have the same capacity to receive or some people are more willing than others?
Shri Mataji: Then it cannot be forced. You see, you have to respect that person. Because you have to ultimately get the cool breeze. So you cannot force on anybody. If somebody does not want it, they cannot get it and we cannot force. Sometimes we have to ask. I mean God is not. UNCLEAR. It is not.
Question: Are some races by nature more receptive. People in Asia for example?
Shri Mataji: Sometimes, we have in all races people who are realized, race does not matter. But Indians are very spiritual, very much. But as they have got their independence so easily, they don’t have much value. I think Indian Sahaja Yogis are not..do not have as much value for Sahaja Yoga as western Sahaja Yogis. They got it, so religiously work it out. [UNCLEAR] they do this, they do that, going all over the world, in every conference they are there to help [UNCLEAR/others]. So many Germans went to Russia to give realization to Russians. Can you imagine the Germans going to Russia? So they think the cool breeze is the greatest thing and the glorious thing which they have achieved.
They have to be established, so they go all out. In India of course, people get realization all right. But we want my mother to be realized, sister to be realized, bring the whole family into realization, it’s like that. But doesn’t matter. Still, we have some very great Sahaja Yogis.
Question: You are talking about Self Realisation. In your lectures, [UNCLEAR] get self-realization?
Shri Mataji: I think in Hyderabad, at least eighty per cent did. Madras I would say? (to Sahaja Yogis)
Sahaja Yogis: Seventy.
Sahaja Yogis: Seventy percent. Bangalore?
Sahaja Yogi: [UNCLEAR]
Question: Afterwards, they, what, practice this Sahaja Yoga or..?
Shri Mataji: No, no they have to come to the centres to understand. First of all, they need to understand what is the problem with them. Then to understand how to develop this. And then they have, must know how to give it to others. Very simple, its very simple. Because, you see its like, as we have got eyes, we can see clearly, in the way we get special eyes, special awareness. By which you know within yourself.
Question: And what is role played by Sahaja Yoga in that?
Shri Mataji: What is it?
Question: Role played by Sahaja Yoga in that.
Shri Mataji: Sahaja Yoga is the system by which the Kundalini rises, and you get your realisation. That is the fourth thing I should say, for the time being. By Sahaja Yoga, you achieve that state. That higher state. It’s a higher state of realization which you achieve. Which one has to achieve.
Question: By himself?
Shri Mataji: Not himself. It is somebody who is a Sahaja Yogi, can do it. If somebody has an enlightened light, can enlighten. If one Sahaja Yogi can give it, that person when he gets it he can give to others. One Sahaja Yogi can give realization to thousands.
Shri Mataji: There are some who did that.

While preparing my book over the last eight years or so, I accumulated quite a few Rickenbacker basses. I'm no longer an active player, and I'd like to see the collection distributed to folks who want/need/appreciate a good Rick! Is it a Laredo or a Cheyenne II? The answer is "yes." I bought this used on eBay from Prussin Music in September 2010 as a 4004L Laredo. I'm one of those weird people who prefer the gold hardware over chrome, so I gots t' thinkin' . . . I'll bet gold hardware on Turquoise would look great, so I swung a swap with Dane Wilder for gold for chrome (which he prefers). The only item I didn't exchange was the jackplate which I wanted to keep with its original frameset. Come to find out, the body wings of this Laredo are made with the maple/walnut/maple sandwich construction usually found on the Cheyenne II, so with the exception of having a finished fingerboard and the chrome jackplate, this is really a Cheyenne II! This bass was made in 2004 before RIC repositioned the pickups to the original "raised" positions. One thing that isn't quite kosher is that the bridge is the Schaller item; the original chrome bridge was the ABM. The Schaller attaches with three screws, the ABM, four. So underneath the bling are another set of holes. You gotta admit, Turquoise and gold sure is pretty! Price is firm at $1800 with case (plus shipping). No trades, no lower offers.

NASA astronaut and author Buzz Aldrin talks space travel and life on Earth.
Buzz Aldrin, 86, is an American icon. On July 20, 1969, he landed on the moon as NASA’s Apollo 11 Lunar Module pilot. The next day, he became the second man to walk on the moon’s surface. Since then, the former Korean War fighter pilot has received countless medals and awards, earned his doctorate from MIT and been “to infinity and beyond” as the inspiration for Toy Story’s Buzz Lightyear. We caught up with Aldrin to talk about space… and life.
The future of NASA…
We went from NASA previously being an advisory agency. And then, to get to the moon, it had to become an operation agency. Now we’re finding that the private sector can do many things better than the government. Maybe we need to do more advising corporations’ commercial activities in space, and participate in that, too.
Working together as a planet to explore space, rather than competing as national space programs…
You certainly don’t compete, you cooperate. You have to. I’m doing the best I can to provide input into NASA. I have a little feel for strategy, being with the program and familiar with military strategy and policy and nations. We have to alleviate things with Russia by connecting back in space. We should be open to trying to do that with the Chinese. Because doing that is something that is right — above the atmosphere.
Surrounded by greatness…
I got to know people. (Billionaire and aerospace engineer) Howard Hughes, (Medal of Honor recipient and aviation pioneer) Jimmy Doolittle. I knew (U.S. senator and astronaut) John Glenn in Korea. He was a captain, years before. These were inspiring people.
Envision the image of somebody walking into the future with their arms spread out, encountering as many opportunities as they can find, examining them, testing them, trying them, and then pick the ones that you can make the best contribution, and they can make a contribution to you. Not just a flash in the pan, but something that is permanent. And if you get into trouble in any different way, ask for help. Because you’ll find that when you help somebody else, you feel better about helping them. And you may need the same help from somebody else one of these days.
Aim high. No dream is too high with your eyes in the sky.
Aldrin has authored nine books, his most recent being 2016’s No Dream is Too High (co-author Ken Abraham). These are the 13 tenets of the philosophy of Buzz.
“The sky is not the limit … There are footprints on the Moon!”
“Keep your mind open to possibilities.”
“Show me your friends, and I will show you your future.”
“Second comes right after first.”
“Write your own epitaph.”
“Maintain your spirit of adventure.”
“Failure is always an option.”
“Practice respect for all people.”
“Do what you believe is right even when others choose otherwise.”
“Trust your gut … and your instruments.”
“Laugh … a lot!”
“Keep a young mindset at every age.”
“Help others go beyond where you have gone.”

Thank you all for your kind words on my last post. It has been such a relief sharing such exciting news with everyone. We are all so excited around here. Yesterday, Sebastian and I took a trip to the outlet malls, and I went a little crazy buying baby clothes. When Sebastian was a baby, I was so sad when he grew out of all his adorable little onesies, and now I have a chance to revisit this baby stage once again, and I couldn't be happier.
In other exciting news, our bathroom remodel is in full swing. The bathroom has been fully gutted, and now the contractors are working on replumbing the whole thing. I am so excited to see it all come together. It's always stressful having the house under construction, especially with a toddler and being pregnant, but at least I can see the end in the near future. When we remodeled our kitchen a few years ago, it took close to a year to finish, which was a pretty big nightmare. If you can afford it, I highly recommend hiring someone for your project. From experience, it is way less stressful.
We are getting prepared for our trip to Hawaii. With leave in just a few short weeks now, and I am very much looking forward to relaxing in the sun. I wish that I could also be sipping on a margarita at the same time, but I'll have to try and make do with some virgin drink options this time around. Brent has been abstaining from alcohol in my presence, which has been a big help, so unless he's spilling sloppy margaritas on my lap, I am sure I'll survive.
I have been on a pretty big cooking spree these past few weeks. I've experimented with a lot of new recipes at home. I'm feeling extra creative and motivated, and I am completely obsessed with really healthy foods this pregnancy. Lots of vegetables and fruit. Tonight I think I'm going to try and create a shrimp and asparagus pesto pasta, because did I mention that I'm also really into pasta this pregnancy.
Last month I randomly threw together this cheesy spaghetti. I did not anticipate it to turn out this good, which seems to be the theme of my cooking these days. I start off with an idea, doubt myself a little during the process, and then, in the end, it turns out amazing. This recipe is so simple. Pasta, oil, garlic, tomatoes, cheese, and seasoning. It tastes similar to a mac and cheese, just a little more sophisticated. The recipe takes a little under 20 minutes to prepare, so it has been a go-to favorite of ours for the last little while.
SPAGHETTI WITH A CHEESY TOMATO AND GARLIC SAUCE
prep time: 5 minutes
cooking time: 20 minutes
12 oz dry spaghetti noodles
3 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp chili flakes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup pasta water
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
While you are waiting for the water to boil, add the olive oil to a large frying pan on low heat. Add the tomatoes, garlic, salt, pepper, and chili flakes and sauté until the tomatoes become soft and broken down.
Once the water has begun to boil, add the dry spaghetti noodles. Cook until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a cup of pasta water to the side.
Add the pasta to the frying pan, tossing with the olive oil and tomatoes. Slowly add 1/2 cup of pasta water to the pasta, continuing to toss. You want the pasta very drippy at this point.
Add the cheddar cheese to the pasta and toss until melted. At this point, you can add a bit more pasta water to get a saucier sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

The Food and Drug Administration just released a statement admitting that, well... They were wrong. “We are proposing a rule to revoke a health claim,” said Susan Mayne, director of the FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, in the release. “For the first time, we have considered it necessary,” she explained, revealing that they have never taken back a claim like this before.
The previous claim held that soy, a popular plant-based protein and the building block of tofu, reduces the risk of heart disease in those who eat it. Soy-based products have been at liberty to flaunt this claim on their packaging, asserting that their food or drink can mitigate heart disease risk. Similar health claims are common not only with soy products, but with other foods, as well.
“Since 1990, the FDA has been responsible for evaluating health claims on packaged foods to ensure that they are rooted in strong science,” expressed Mayne. “To date, we have authorized 12 such health claims, such as the effect of calcium and vitamin D in helping to lower the risk of osteoporosis or certain fruits and vegetables to lower the risk of cancer.”
This claim, however, may have missed the mark. Evidently, as the American Heart Association pointed out in 2008, while soy does have a direct link with cholesterol, it’s a bit of a stretch to say that this correlation also extends to a reduction of heart disease risk.
The the Weston A. Price Foundation, a non-profit that promotes nutrition, called out the FDA in 2016 over the same claim, advising that the agency reevaluate the claim in light of more recent research.
Once this research was considered closely, the release concedes, “Our review of that evidence has led us to conclude that the relationship between soy protein and heart disease does not meet the rigorous standard for an FDA-authorized health claim.” Soy didn’t make the cut, and the FDA no longer feels comfortable with companies flaunting the potential benefit on packaging.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that soy increases risk of heart disease - or that soy is in any way bad for you. It simply doesn’t have as strong a tie to heart health as was previously thought. And that the FDA, thrilled about the health implications of soy products, jumped just one foot too far in its health claims’ assumptions.
While we’re bummed soy won’t guarantee you a lower risk, consider eating one of these foods to reduce your risk of heart disease instead.

Technology is an improved route to an unimproved target. Technology is making us so bust that we can can’t even discover time to spend with our closed one’s. it might be stunning to know that persons are in contact through chat and online messaging though they’re in same metropolis as a result of they suppose its more faster and efficient however they’re forgetting that assembly personally can by no means substitute online chatting.
Technology has made research much easier. Before on-line Encyclopedias, Google Scholar, JSTOR, and different on-line analysis instruments were available, college students were forced to spend quite a few hours in the library. With the new instruments, college students can conduct research quicker in the consolation of their homes. With Google and other serps, college students can find relevant information sooner and more effectively. Additionally, there is no such thing as a extra need for intensive memorization as information is extra available.
If I repaired a couple of gadgets with my limited technical provide I ruined a many with my limited dose of technology. Nonetheless, I fastened their problems later with my technical brains after getting a small description concerning the technology used in them. As a technical geek, the first gadget that I attempted to repair was a small alarm clock. And once I say restore, I literally imply removing all the gears and replacing them again. It took me two complete days to render the clock utterly useless after slicing a small essential copper coil inside it. And I by no means felt sorry for that. Because I received an opportunity to peek into the technology as utilized in small alarm clock. And in the present day I know how the 555 timer technology is used for designing an alarm clock. And it is a quite simple technology which many Engineers should not acquainted with even after graduating out of their technical programs.
The advances within the technology and pharmaceutical merchandise have resulted in plenty of innovations in the healthcare industry. Technology will not change the artist (at the very least not within the near future) or artistic types; it in reality requires more of us. A programmer can write extra advanced and refined code that can do many mundane capabilities, even mimicking creativity, however that means to imitate is nothing greater than coded directions and there is a restrict to what they’ll do. Real human creativity could make leaps and jumps and associations that a program cannot.
Rights have little meaning unless they are often enforced and trendy technology has made IPRs enforcement increasingly difficult. Photocopiers make it attainable for anybody with access to a machine to reproduce works entitled to copyright protection and the Internet allows anyone to make literary or musical works out there to the world.
Latest analysis indicates that among the essential issues in gross sales and communications proper now have emerged as a result of people consider you can substitute face-to-face (and voice-to-voice) communications with textual content, e-mail and social networking. Neil Postman additionally sees technology as undermining human processes as well. That technology creates ‘a tradition without moral foundation’ and undermines social relations between people. This will at present be seen with the argument over social networking sites on the web. It was created for folks to speak and network, yet some people use it as their only type of communication with different folks. This doesn’t necessarily help their social skills in the real and outside world away from the web. Individuals can develop into addicted and reliant on this technology and use it as their fundamental type for creating social relations. It makes issues like understanding facial expressions and body language laborious to know.
Different features of society and our particular person lives are additionally influenced by technology in many direct and indirect methods, together with governance,entertainment, human relationships, and our views on morality, mind, matter, and our own human nature. Unnecessary to add that these developments additionally invigorate economic development because the effective use of technology reduces the material manufacturing value and the overhead fees which generate financial savings in the economy and thus result in nationwide improvement.
There are some people who fear that the technological revolution and evolution we’re experiencing today is moving too quick. There seems to be a lack of privacy in some respects and the specter of a Big Brother society looms bigger than it has since 1984. Whether or not their fears are effectively founded or not will stay to be seen, but it’s unlikely that people will ever willingly quit the almost prompt connections to our wired world.
Science and technology problem mental property systems, particularly patent laws. New fields reminiscent of information technology and genetic engineering force courts to resolve learn how to apply legal guidelines made earlier than such technologies were contemplated. As data itself becomes more precious, folks and establishments search extra safety for control of the information and its income. At the same time, society has an rising need for entry to some kinds of data and safety from the usage of others.
Technology Articles, Technological News
Over the past few decades, technology has grown at an exponential charge providing trendy society with many of it’s creature comforts. Optimistic assumptions are made by proponents of ideologies equivalent to transhumanism and singularitarianism , which view technological improvement as typically having helpful effects for the society and the human situation. In these ideologies, technological development is morally good.
This has opened up quite a few doorways for working adults who have beforehand been restricted by time and resources. The technology of online videos or recorded tutorials permits students to review on their own time, whether or not day or night.
Affect Of Technology On Enterprise
Whereas there are benefits to constant evolution of technology, their evolution has additionally seen the increase of its harmful power as apparent within the creation of weapons of all kinds.
Technology has created a myriad of the way of speaking simply and efficiently. The Internet has the entire same features radio and TV offered. It’s quick, free, long reaching, but much more so. As an illustration, the Internet does not have to attend for a recurrently scheduled information program. Articles posted on a news website can be found immediately to individuals throughout the globe. Additionally, whereas some information websites have experimented with paid subscriptions, most news is accessible without spending a dime. Lastly, the long reach of the Web has caused ideas reminiscent of globalization, the idea that all the folks on the planet are interconnected, part of a single (albeit very large) community.
Many individuals mistakenly imagine it’s technology which drives innovation. But from the definitions above, that’s clearly not the case. It’s alternative which defines innovation and technology which permits innovation. Consider the classic “Construct a better mousetrap” instance taught in most business schools. You might have the technology to construct a greater mousetrap, but when you have no mice or the outdated mousetrap works effectively, there is no opportunity after which the technology to construct a greater one turns into irrelevant. However, if you’re overrun with mice then the chance exists to innovate a product utilizing your technology.
Online schooling allows extra students to get an schooling. Handicapped students, students that need to travel quite a bit, and college students with jobs can now full their levels wherever they go along with a versatile schedule and often at their very own tempo. Resulting from its lower costs, online training also advantages decrease-earnings students.
One other new hobby, completely based mostly on trendy technology, is robotics. This pastime needs loads of expertise in mechanical and electronics science. However one other factor is essential for robotics and that is synthetic intelligence. Trendy robots do not simply complete the pre decided activity, now they’re able to make contact with a human. This sort of recreation needs numerous schooling and skill.
Teaching With Technology
Developments in technology, valiant journeys, and vital individuals of the Age of Exploration created a powerful step toward the trendy era. The first area during which info technology became vital was with regard to billing. Old-fashioned paper-primarily based book-retaining was time consuming and inefficient, and was not in a position to shortly tell a resort proprietor what the state of affairs of their resort was. Fortunately, advances in fashionable record preserving enable for a lodge proprietor to maintain observe of what they have available, how a lot of it they’ve, and how a lot it prices. Accounting is difficult, however advanced accounting software, particularly that tailored to the unique wants of the hospitality business, helps to enable resort house owners to make sensible decisions. Providers and products which can be no longer used may be quickly reduce off to save cash, while those who show demand can be elevated in amount or modified so as to reduce the heavy usage.
Communication and technology also play an important position in the neighborhood. Via varied mediums, people can get help and seek data freely. There are programs that work to learn individuals in society who may be going by way of hardships and even these looking for a spot to volunteer their skills. There isn’t a limit to what one can do contemplating online banking, purchasing, shipping, movies, music, and gaming are all accessible. In addition, technology ensures clarity, in both audio and visual systems, thus one can have the benefit of each area of communication.
Trendy Developments In Technology
In our present tier of ever-advancing technological society, after all our students are also affected however the steady climb of what becomes considered frequent, everyday technology. We are in a Renaissance not like anything for the reason that 1700’s. A lot of what we love was birthed in the inventive Renaissance: the novel, female writers, and many others. Software program, computer systems, technology itself, are instruments and inventive folks all the time use tools, well, extra creatively. If a piece of software is launched that does a supposedly inventive process and all of the sudden everybody can do that task, the creative and proficient person goes to make use of that software extra effectively and to a better end than most others.
Not all results of technology on training are positive. Technology also allows college students to cheat extra simply. Nevertheless, new technology allows instructors to detect plagiarism. Technological developments may discourage essential pondering since solutions are extra readily available. Technology also encourages college students to spend their time doing different activities akin to playing video video games and participating in social networking.

Education has modified significantly in the final twenty years. Nevertheless, the Internet can also be constantly advancing, which means the face of digital information is always altering too. Videos have develop into standard on the Internet, so many news websites are beginning to use video clips to enrich, and generally even change, written tales. Different websites, reminiscent of NPR, offer the choice to play recordings of radio exhibits that have already aired.

Advanced Contemporary Cupping Practitioner and Licensed Massage Therapist Marisa Sabin, of Cupping for Wellness & Beauty, in Naples, provides cupping treatments and massages, as well as easy-to-use self-care products that include CelliCupp for cellulite care and FitCupp for all ages and lifestyles. For first-time clients, she is offering a $25 discount on either a one-hour massage/cupping session or a cellulite lift treatment through July 15.
Cupping brings healthy balance to body tension by improving hydration, collagen and blood circulation. Water within the body softens muscle and connective tissues, while hyaluronic acid plumps the skin’s surface. Improved circulation brings better health while promoting detoxification.
Sabin contends that cupping can release tension in the back, neck, hips, feet and other areas, improve sciatica symptoms and increase poor range of motion, anxiety, muscle cramps, digestion and plantar fasciitis. She also provides tips and advice on how to use self-care cupping products at home.
Location: 3699 Airport Rd. N., inside Naples Aesthetic Plastic Surgery & Med Spa. For more information or an appointment, call 239-919- 6573, email Marisa@MarisaSabin.com or visit MassageCuppingNaples.com.Edit ModuleShow Tags

GMB MEMBERS TO JOIN MARCH IN KNOTTINGLEY WEST YORKSHIRE ON SAT 19TH DEC TO MARK CLOSURE OF KELLINGLEY LAST DEEP MINE IN UK ON 18TH DEC
UK will lose skills, traditions and culture associated with coal mining and communities will suffer the social deprivation of losing their source of employment says GMB.
GMB, the union for energy and coal workers, will take part in a march through Knottingley on Saturday, 19 December to mark the end of Kellingley Colliery which is closing on Friday 18th December. This is the last deep mine in the UK. The march will leave the Town Hall at 12.30 pm to Kellingley Miners Welfare Club for a rally.
Phil Whitehurst, GMB National Officer, said "Kellingley affectionately called the "BIG K" once employed 3,000 miners and was the biggest deep mine in Europe. Now the final 450 miners, the last in a long line stretching back for generations, are having to search for new jobs before the shafts that lead down to 30 million tons of untouched coal are sealed with concrete.
Kellingley and the coal industry in general has been let down by successive governments – both Conservative and Labour – who have failed to halt the pit closures. Thatcher in 1984 wanted to break the NUM because it was the bastion of the trade union movement but failed. The Cameron's Conservative Government with no industrial strategy has now succeeded where Thatcher left off and the last deep mine in the UK is to go. This is a very sad day as our proud industrial heritage is destroyed by the Conservatives.
Pam Ross, lay officer in the GMB Yorkshire Coal Staffs branch, said "It is very sad time and the death of UK deep mined coal – it started, really, with privatisation – British Coal was privatised in a different way to other nationalised industries. I think the underlying purpose of that was possibly to try and kill off the industry and the NUM as a punishment for the 1984 strike.
The real disappointment was the lack of support when Labour swept into power in 1997 – we waited for some kind of sign from them – although, after a lot of campaigning, we did manage to get some funding for developments, but it was never enough to save the industry. UK Coal and its predecessor, RJB Mining, failed to make a success of the industry, but there were so many other contributory factors, world price of coal, events beyond our control such as the problems with Daw Mill, and in recent times the dumping of cheap US coal in the UK because of fracking in the US.
It is ironic, considering that we will still be burning coal – certainly till the moratorium in 2025!- but none of it will be UK deep mined coal. The UK should be world leaders in Carbon Capture and Sequestration – and despite every Government over the last 20 years paying lip service to an energy policy which includes that, and has included coal, nothing has been done – every project has come to nought, including the most recent one, which has been scrapped.
Whenever the politicians talk about security of supply, here we are, sitting on hundreds of years of coal, for which the technology exists to burn it cleanly (it is happening in Canada!) but we will no longer have access to it.
We will also lose skills, traditions and culture associated with coal mining, and obviously suffer the social deprivation from communities losing their source of employment. It’s ironic that there are so many coal mining museums in the UK – obviously the general public has a lot of empathy for miners and mining, pity the UK Government did not share that empathy and invest the future of the coal industry."

When you think about Karnataka food, different things come to your mind – like Gokak Kardantu, Belgaum Kunda, Davanagere benne dose etc. These places have become synonymous with these popular dishes. I have been on the lookout for Davangere benne dose for a very long time. I had previously posted a version of benne dose here. Last week when I was going through my recipe collection – if some of you remember, I had mentioned earlier that my dad had given me a huge collection of recipes that he collected over the years, just for me. Love you dad – I found an article about Davanagere food. And there was a recipe for benne dose. I cannot believe I had missed reading this recipe!. Better late than never.
So I immediately decided to make it and declared to V that he will have these dosas for next day’s breakfast. When I started, I realized that there were some confusions about the recipe. So wherever I got confused, I just went with my instinct. Ohh these dosas –along with its two sides, which make a huge difference – were just out of the world. I want to make this for my parents when they visit next time.
The article says we have to use ‘Jaya thick rice’. Since that is not available here, I used idli rice. It mentions, we have to wash some rice, dry it and make rice flour, but the quantity is not mentioned. I just used rice flour. It also says we can make the dosas 1hr after making the batter, I was not so sure about that. So I kept it for fermentation overnight. The quantity was enough for 3 days for two of us. After making the batter, I took 1/3rd of it out and kept for fermentation. Remaining, I refrigerated. About 1 cup of batter was left out that day. Next day I took out another 1/3rd and mixed the 1 cup left out fermented batter. Let it rest for about 30mins and made dosas. They came out really well. Repeated the same for last batch.
The article says, these dosas are served with bhaji and chutney. While the bhaji is quite bland, the chutney is made very spicy. It is an experience in itself to eat the dosas with these two sides. It also mentions that for the chutney, a special chutney masala that is readily available in shops is used, unfortunately the masala recipe is not given but the article says that the masala is made of moggu, cinnamon and cardamom. Since I did not have moggu, I used cloves. The chutney was very very flavorful.
Give it a try atleast once. I am sure you will love it, like we did.
Ingredients for dosa:
1 cup urad dal
2 and 1/2 cups idli rice/dosa rice
1/2 cup rice flour
1 cup poha(avalakki)
1/2 tea spn methi(fenugreek) seeds
Soak urad dal, methi seeds and rice for 1 hr. Wash poha in water.
Grind all together to a soft batter. Now add rice flour, salt and grind again (or mix well with a spoon).
Keep it aside for 4-5hrs.
Heat tava and spread a thin dosa. Add some butter pieces. Flip the dosa and fry for a min. Flip again and fold. Serve with a dollop of butter on top.
Ingredients for bhaji:
1/2 cup onion
2 green chillies
1 tea spn mustard seeds
3-4 curry leaves
A pinch turmeric
Cook the potatoes in pressure cooker, peel and mash them.
Heat oil and add mustard seeds. When they start popping, add curry leaves, green chillies, onion. Fry for few minutes. Add turmeric, salt and potatoes. Mix well.
Ingredients for chutney:
1 cup fresh/frozen coconut
6 green chillies (chillies I used were not very spicy)
1 tbl spn choppes ginger
1/4 tea spn tamarind
Grind all with minimum amount of water needed.
Serves : 6-7
Preparation time : 45mins

If you’re living in Malaysia, then that time of the year is coming. The Big Bad Wolf Book Festival is beginning in a few days — Which means, if you’re like me, then you’re gonna be stuffing yourself with lots of coffee, head to the sale after midnight, and probably spend half of the remaining day catching up on sleep — Not to forget the massive discounts, of course.
And oh, there’s a chance that you’re gonna end up with some books that you’ll probably never read.
But forget book festivals for a moment there. Sometimes you stumble upon a book in a bookstore and you heard from “some people” that it’s good — Only to discover that it’s not worth your time and money. If only you knew more about that book you wouldn’t have bought it.
Well that’s your fault.
Here are some strategies that you can use in getting good books :
Check Out Recommendations :
I’d often look at the figures I admire (including close friends and teachers/mentors) and try to find out about the books that played important roles in shaping who they are. To name a few as examples, Ryan Holiday got me started on reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, Seth Godin’s canon on marketing and plenty of biographies. John Steinbeck got me started on William Faulkner. Bob Dylan got me started on T.S. Eliot and Jack Kerouac’s poems and novels.
They don’t have to be famous or whatever, as long as they’re people whose opinions you value and respect.
It’s also useful to flip through the bibliography section at the back of a book that you really like, and pick one book from it as your next read. Plus, you get to widen your knowledge base this way.
Do Some Research
Another important thing to do would be to read some reviews by other people who have read the book (My favorite place to go is Amazon, if not Goodreads). No doubt you’ll find some really good to really bad comments about the book — That’s alright, their opinions don’t have to be yours, because you haven’t read the book. But the reason to do this is so that you’ll have an idea of what you expect to get from reading it, and therefore make a decision if it’s gonna be worth a try.
Look For The Best Places To Buy
If I think a book is available in my campus library, that’s where I’d look for it first. If the book is good and I’d like to own a personal copy of it (So I can dirty it with notes etc.), I’ll buy it.
Before you do, a good thing to do would be to visit websites of bookstores and compare their prices. I’m not sure if you care much about this step, but I do. Because more often than not, there would be huge discounts on Book Depository than if I were to buy in local stores. It’s a bit of a wait to get your books delivered (It’s a UK company), but I personally don’t mind.
Other than that, to avoid buying on impulse, I hardly ever buy a new release in the market, unless it’s from an author that I really love — This year I pre-ordered Robert Greene’s Laws of Human Nature and received some pretty cool bonuses from it — And hey, how often does that happen.
I’m not saying that I don’t love book festivals. I do. It’s even like a yearly tradition for me. But year after year, the amount of books I buy there seem to decrease or at least stay more or less the same.
When you see that many books on deathly discounts, it’s normal to feel like “If I don’t buy this now, I’m gonna be at loss, because I’m gonna be spending more money later on books that I could have bought now at huge discounts). But in actuality, you’re wasting money in the present, because you’re buying books that you won’t read.
So one thing to keep in mind is to not trick yourself into buying books that you plan to read. Instead buy only the ones that you’re very, very excited to read.
Also, you can set a budget — If your total price exceeds say, 50 bucks, then whether you want to or not, you’re gonna have to let some books go.
Lastly, if you look at your library, or anybody else’s for that matter, you might be able to call it an “anti-library” — As Nassim Taleb coined — A library containing some books that were not read. And that’s not necessarily a bad thing. From the unread books, an anti-library reminds you of how much knowledge you still don’t have.
But that doesn’t mean anyone is encouraging you to build on your anti-library. Spend and buy responsibly, and while you can, avoid making decisions that you’ll come to regret.

University staff visited Tullos Primary School in Aberdeen this week where they took part in the first workshop being delivered under the University's partnership with Aberdeen Football Club Community Trust.
Professor Norman Hutchison and Pam Cumming, School Engagement Coordinator at the University of Aberdeen Business School, delivered a lesson on entrepreneurship and marketing to P7 pupils, who were challenged to come up with a marketing plan that would help Aberdeen FC reach out to local communities.
They were joined by staff from the AFC Community Trust, with whom staff from the University have been working on a plan to help primary school pupils develop skills in literacy and numeracy.
Commenting afterwards, Professor Hutchison said: “The pupils came up with some very good and innovative ideas on the ways Aberdeen FC could grow their business model.
“There was a high level of engagement and enthusiasm in the classroom and at the end of the hour, each group had to present their ideas to the class. The session covered a large number of learning outcomes and will hopefully inspire the pupils to be entrepreneurial.”

I don’t know about you, but I hardly ever write anymore. Every once in a while I’ll use handwriting when I’m taking notes on a Bit Rebels conference call, but for the most part, I don’t write anymore with a pen and paper. Handwriting is quickly becoming an art of the past. It’s a shame really because writing is such an individualized way to artistically express words. Do you know what your handwriting says about you?
I didn’t know until today that the way we write our letters gives people a glimpse into over 5,000 personality traits. I touched on this topic a year ago when I wrote an article called What Your Handwriting Reveals About Your Personality, but today we are getting into the nitty-gritty of it all. If you’ve ever watched those crime shows or movies, you’ve probably seen a handwriting analysis where the detective looks at the size, looping and slant of a person’s handwriting to determine certain things.
This infographic called What Does Your Handwriting Say About You? by National Pen goes into some serious handwriting specifics. Who would have ever known that the way we cross our Ts and dot our Is would reveal so much about our personalities? That’s not all either. According to this infographic, your handwriting can give clues about your health and energy levels too. It’s also interesting that “Handwriting that is bunched up, moved out of alignment, or otherwise different from the rest of the writing indicates a lie.”
I alternate between my right and left hand when I write, and the handwriting from each hand looks very different. I wonder what that means. If you want to test your own handwriting, just naturally write a paragraph on a piece of paper and then compare it to what this infographic says. Is it correct? Is what your handwriting says about you true?

The Intruder, a short story by Melbourne writer Alice Hughes
Alice Hughes is an author of short fiction based out of Melbourne. She wrote The Intruder at the beginning of this year, and has called it a way of testing what the short story form can do with sound, and stripped of images.
She awoke like this: in the black. Not darkness. Black. Darkness had no relevance to her. Darkness was as meaningless as the table lamps that littered her apartment.
She stretched, feeling towards the space where Eric should have been. But she was alone in the bed. Her hands gripped at absence.
“Fine,” she muttered to herself. “If it’s like that.” They had fought the night before, and he was good at holding a grudge. He had probably slept the night on the couch.
She sat up, and swung her legs over the side of the bed. Using her toes, she sought out the cane that lay on the floor, delighted as always to feel its presence and its permanence.
“Eric?” She called out, picking up the cane with her toes and then slipping the leather band around her wrist. She did not need it to navigate the apartment – she knew every nook and cranny of the place; could see it in her mind’s eye; could feel it, in the way she knew people with sight could not – but she liked having it with her. It was her extra limb. She felt odd without it.
“We’re going to argue this morning as well?” She called out. No answer. What a bastard he could be. How much egomania lay within that thin frame. Eric believed his problems were problems grand enough to disrupt the pattern of life itself. Eric was not only the hero of his own story, but the story of the goddamn planet earth – in his mind everything before his birth was a prelude to his great and awe-inspiring dance along the mortal coil.
“Whatever,” she called, and then rose, the cane limp around her wrist, navigating herself into the corner of the room where her dressing gown hung on the back of the door. She had slept naked. She hated the feeling of clothes as she slept. Pajamas suffocated her. She could drown in cloth.
The gown felt good against her skin; she felt the material as it slid up every inch. Of course, those with sight liked to talk about how the blind had heightened senses: it was one of the things they found interesting. They liked it the way they are amused to discover that apes can solve simple wooden puzzles.
And yet she had to admit for all of his faults – and how many there were – Eric had never treated her with the patronizing curiosity most of those with sight did. He never asked dumb questions. He never exploited her, not even for a joke. Not like the rest of them. There had been other boyfriends who thought it funny to move around the furniture in her apartment; thought because she was comfortable with her blindness they could be comfortable too. Thought they could poke fun.
But Eric never had. Eric: respectful to a tee. And yet here he he was, sulking. Like a child. Like he so often did. And all because of a stupid argument over his stupid mother.
“You’re really not talking to me?” she called, a little softer now. She was standing in the doorway to the bedroom – the couch where he must have spent the night was only a few meters to her left.
She waited, and in the silence heard the drip, drip of the tap coming from the bathroom. He had forgotten to turn off the fucking tap. Again.
This was another problem: he treated her like he would treat anyone else. But she wasn’t anyone else. She had needs – individualized, specific needs – and one of them was a certain kind of silence. Nothing drove her as mad as the little noises that people with sight tend to ignore: the slight buzzing of the TV when it was asleep, rather than off; the whine a radio developed when turned down low; the taps – the fucking taps – dripping.
Why couldn’t she find the happy medium? Why couldn’t she find the man that didn’t tease her, but didn’t just try to ignore her blindness either; didn’t consider her sight deprivation some odd personality trait that would go away if disregarded?
She strode straight through the living room, past the couch she saw Eric sleeping on in her mind’s eye, and through to the kitchen. She opened the fridge, heard its hum (loud), and pulled out a carton of orange juice. She didn’t want to fight with Eric anymore – she was rarely angry the morning after – but now she was being pulled into another domestic. She was being forced to play the part of the bitchy fiancée, annoyed over nothing, because he was playing the part of the bastard fiancée, and he was playing it well.
She took the carton over to the kitchen counter, placed it down, and then moved to get a glass from the cupboard, brushing her arm over the counter, feeling it strike against something, anticipating the crash of whatever she had just knocked over before it even hit the ground.
It shattered – it must have been a glass Eric had left on the counter, stupidly, stupidly. How hard was it to put the glasses back where you found them?
“Jesus fuck,” she exclaimed. “There’s fucking glass everywhere.”
There was silence, save the slow drip of the tap from the next room. “Eric? Eric, you have to come help me. I don’t know where the glass is. It must be all over the floor.”
No answer. No sound. Except: drip, drip, drip.
“Please, honey,” she said, and was ashamed to find fear had crept into her voice. “Eric?”
Drip. Drip. Drip.
“Fuck you then,” she muttered. “You fucking asshole.”
Drip. Drip. Drip. She took a step towards the living room, out of the kitchen, and pain shot through her foot. She had trod right on a piece of glass – a splinter of the stuff, she could feel it, deep – and she let out a squeal of pain as she practically leapt over the rest of the linoleum, and through to the safety of the carpeted living room.
“I’m bleeding,” she barked, hobbling over towards where he was on the couch, ready to hit the guy, cane out, all prepared to feel the tip of it go sinking into his stupid, sleeping back…
But her cane did not strike Eric. It hit the back of the couch.
He was not there.
She was a little stunned. All the air seemed to be sucked out of the room. He wasn’t in bed. He wasn’t on the couch. The apartment was so small; there were very few places he could now be. Suddenly, she was afraid. Genuinely afraid.
And then, from the bathroom: a cough.
Her whole body went into spasm. It was fear, and it dripped through her. That was Eric coughing, wasn’t it? Then why wasn’t he answering?
“Eric? Hey, baby?” She called out, slowly.
From the bathroom: a shuffle, the unmistakable sound of sock clad fleet stumbling over the tiles. She raised her cane up, instinctively.
“Eric,” she cried, almost hysterical. “Eric, for fuck’s sake.”
There was another hacking cough, followed by the sound of fluid hitting the sides of the sink.
She was suddenly sure she needed to be very, very quiet. She stood perfectly still. There was somebody in her apartment. Eric would not ignore her like this, no matter how angry he was.
Her mind flashed with the word: intruder. It strobed through her brain, searing itself there. What had happened to Eric, then? He was not strong – what if he had been beaten up? What if he had been killed?
She let out a whimper, and then threw her hands up to her mouth, clamping it shut.
A moan came from the bathroom. It was a complicated noise, made from the back of the throat, but wet, as though a person with a mouthful of fluid was trying to speak.
Fluid. That was the word she used in her head. She did not want to use the word blood. Although, what else would it be?
A scenario rushed itself through her mind: an intruder had broken in. Eric had heard (how had Eric heard, and she hadn’t? a voice inside her probed, but she ignored it) and had risen to attack. He had gotten a knife from the kitchen – maybe the glass fit into that somehow (somehow? How? came the voice again), and then he had gone to attack the intruder, had managed to stab him. But the intruder was too strong, he had hurt Eric, maybe he had knocked him out, and now the intruder was in the bathroom, coughing up blood, wounded, but still dangerous.
Another terrible, agonized sound came. She flinched at it.
In no time at all the voice that kept interrupting her resurfaced. It was, she supposed, what her mother would have liked to call the voice of reason, because such phrases are a mother’s bread and butter.
Don’t be stupid, came the voice. You would have heard an intruder. It’s Eric in the bathroom, but he’s hurt. Maybe not badly: don’t always think badly. Maybe he’s sick. Maybe he’s vomiting.
Or, she thought, taking over from the voice, maybe Eric had had a heart attack. Maybe he was on his knees on the bathroom floor, gasping for breath, bright light blinding him, close to the end…
But then the noise came again. That moan. And with that noise, she could no longer convince herself that it was Eric, sick in the bathroom. She could no longer convince herself that the figure in the bathroom was Eric at all.
She took a step backwards. She raised up her cane. There was no way out of the apartment without passing the bathroom door. She was going to have to make a run for it, straight through the corridor, past the bathroom, out, out of the front and down the stairwell, and –
She needed a knife. The intruder would hear her pass the door – Christ, he had already heard her, she had been walking around the place shrieking like a mad housewife – and he would come bursting out, armed.
Maybe she should just stay still. If she could make it clear she was no threat – she was blind, for Christ’s sake – maybe the intruder would leave her be. Maybe if she could call out to him, let him know that she was not going to try to stop him…
A terrible, pained howl came from the bathroom, horrendously loud.
Before she even knew what she was doing, she was running. Fear had seized her body. She dashed straight through the corridor, approaching the bathroom –
BAM – the bathroom door flew open, just as she passed it, and a terrible stench, finally released, came from the room; it smelt like rot, like blood, like shit. She turned, her back to the now open bathroom door, and her hands slid up, trying to find the doorknob for the front door, just as she felt a sudden, swift rush of air against the back of her neck, the intruder right fucking behind her, and then her hands clamped on the doorknob, and she threw it open, and stepped straight through, into the stairwell of the apartment.
She screamed. The intruder had caught onto her long, flowing hair, and as she had darted forward, he had held on. The hair was pulled out at the roots. Her hands flew to the back of her head, instinctively protecting herself. She stumbled – so close to falling down the stairs – but steadied herself against the bannister.
“Get away from me!” She managed. She wanted to be loud: Terrence and Holly, the old married couple. They lived at the apartment at the bottom of the stairs. Surely, if she shouted loud enough, they would be able to hear her. They weren’t that deaf
She stumbled forward, gripping the bannister, down the stairs, one foot at a time, the cane tapping uselessly at her side.
A sudden rush of air came against the back of her neck, and she screamed again. The intruder was swiping at her, and there was no doubt anymore: he wanted to hurt her. He hadn’t broken in to steal anything; he had broken into kill her and Eric. Eric had tried to stop him. Eric had failed. The intruder wanted her dead. She could feel that intent emanating from him. That was all he wanted. He wanted her dead, but before that, he wanted her pain. The simple barbarity of his actions told her that.
She slipped down the stairs, all her weight propelling her forward, and let out another desperate shriek.
“HELP! Please help me!”
She was all the way down the stairs now. She could no longer feel the intruder behind her, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t there – that didn’t mean anything – and she stumbled forwards, and straight into Terrence and Holly’s door.
She expected it to be closed, but she also expected it to be locked. As soon as she pressed her weight against the door, it flew open, and she hit the ground hard. Sudden pain shocked through her wrists. Of course: Terrence and Holly bragged about the way they never bolted their door – never even latched it – because they were old, and old people though that naivety was a virtue. She was stunned; pinned to the ground. She didn’t think she’d be able to get up again at all, until she heard.
The noise went like this: thump. Thump. Thump.
It was the intruder walking down the stairs.
She got to her feet, desperately, and scrabbled forward. She did not know Terrence and Holly’s apartment: had no idea where the obstacles lay, had never seen it from the inside. “Terrence? Holly?” She shouted, and was greeted with a sudden sharp pain in her right shinbone – she’d walked straight into something. She stumbled backwards three good steps. She couldn’t move – had no idea where to go – she was a rat in a maze. She threw her hands forward, desperate to feel something, anything, but there was just so much empty fucking space, and that noise from upstairs – that thump, thump, thump, getting louder and louder…
She let out a terrible, anguished scream. It was louder than she thought any scream could be. It stunned her.
It must have stunned the intruder, too. Because now there was silence. The slow, terrible footsteps on the stairs had stopped. She stood in Terrence and Holly’s apartment – in their living room? their corridor? – and there was total silence.
And then: a slow moan.
Not from behind. Not from the intruder.
From right in front of her. “Terrence? Holly?” She said.
Another moan. This time, more feminine.
There was a shuffling sound, and then a sudden, terrible gasp of air hit her in the face. It smelt like blood. It smelt like meat.
They were so close she could feel their breath.
She filled her lungs, ready to scream again, when suddenly, from behind, something grabbed her shoulders so tight she thought they would break like twigs.
Of course, those with sight like to talk about how the blind have heightened senses: it is one of the things they find interesting. But it did not take heightened senses for her to feel the hard, cold thing as the hands grabbed her. It was the hard, cold thing she had bought with Eric almost a year ago now. She had never seen it with her own eyes of course, but knew it. She knew it because the man in the shop had handed it to her, and she had worked it through her fingers, testing its shape and size.
It was Eric’s engagement band.
A hoarse, pained scream escaped her lips. As though that were the cue it had been waiting for, the thing that had once been Eric gently pulled her head to one side, and held it there, exposing the clean white waiting flesh of her neck.

Just saw this law review article posted. A Due Process Right to Record the Police, Glenn Harlan Reynolds. Washington University Law Review, Vol. 89, No. XXX, 2012 . http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2043907 III. CONCLUSION In an age of ubiquitous recording, citizens have already learned to expect that virtually anything they do outside of their home may be recorded by someone. Yet those recordings are usually controlled by others who have no obligation to retain them in order to protect citizens’ rights. Under these circumstances, a due process right of citizens to record their encounters with law enforcement (and, perhaps, other government officials) serves to level the playing field and to protect important liberty interests that may not always be fully protected by the First Amendment. At the same time, this due process right imposes no significant burdens on government officials or on the public fisc. This being the case, there seems no reason why courts should not find a due process right to record the police, and many reasons why such a right should exist.

The Rivers State Government says it is resolute in fighting crime and those behind them head on.
The State Chief Executive, Chief Nyesom Wike stated this while inaugurating the Rivers State Justice Sector Reform Team at the NBA House in Port Harcourt, yesterday.
Represented by his Deputy, Dr. (Mrs) Ipalibo Harry Banigo, Governor Wike said the inauguration of the Justice Sector Reform Team is in tandem with the resolution of the State Government to bring to the barest minimum all forms of criminality in the State.
According to him Government has been consulting with the different sectors of justice administration in the state, noting that Government recently met with the Judiciary Law Officers and security agencies to brainstorm on the way forward in the administration of justice.
Governor Wike said the Team would close all loopholes created by administrative lapses due to the different command structures in the sector which are often parallel.
The State Chief Executive thanked the Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption Programme (RoLAC) of the European Union and the British Council for their participation in the inaugural work shop to prepare members of the team for the task ahead.
In his address, the State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Zacchaeus Adangor said the State Government has put several measures in place to ensure that justice gets to all, stressing that Government has continued to work with the police and the court for prison decongestion.
While noting that the justice delivery system in the state is poised for greater service delivery, the Attorney General disclosed that the State Ministry of Justice has created the Office of the Public Defendant to defend indigent members of the public as part of efforts to give succour to the less privileged members of the public.
In his goodwill message, the National Programme Manager of Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption Programme (RoLAC), Danladi Plang thanked the Rivers State Government for the opportunity to partner with Government in the inauguration of the Rivers State Justice Sector Reform Team.
According to him, the British Council has been working in the Justice sector in Nigeria since the year 2002 with the establishment of the first Team in Jigawa State in 2003, noting that Rivers State is the 29th Team so far established.

Originally from L.A. The Last Artful, Dodgr; real name Alana Chenevert made the move to Portland back in 2013. A few years later, a chance meeting with EYRST label co-founder Neill Von Tally would be the catalyst for this unstoppable twosome.
Since that encounter, Dodgr and Tally have come together to create music quite unlike anything out there today. Unable to be pigeonholed these two unleashed their first joint effort, an EP titled Fractures back in 2015. Today, the Portland based duo release Bone Music; an 11-track project that tells the story of a blue-collar worker trying to find the balance between working and their personal relationships.
SFPL’s own Arlene Danna had the opportunity to speak with Dodgr and Tally and gain insight into the inner workings of this unique duo. We discussed the inspiration behind the project, how they met, the relevance of Bone Music given the current political climate of the country, and so much more. Delve into the world of this captivating duo below.
Bone Music drops Feb. 3. Tell us about the project.
Dodgr: It’s the story of a blue-collar worker. It’s like a love story too.
Neill: All of those things are definitely true. The album is definitely a concept album and pretty much through the production, through our features, through what Dodgr does we’re telling the story of these different characters. Ultimately the story is that of a blue-collar worker who is struggling with their relationships and is kind of going through the traditional myriad of things we all experience relationship wise as well as going through the experience of trying to remained employed, and realizing that you have to work your whole life to get these things. So coming to the understand that nothing in life is free, nothing in life is easy and you just have to push through. So that’s the big take away of the narrative we’re telling…
Dodgr: …Without giving too much away.
So how did you guys come up with the concept?
Neill: The concept in a way sort of revealed itself to us. We were working on a lot of music together and we hadn’t necessarily planned on any one album or any one direction. A group of songs started feeling tied together and we realized there was a story we were beginning to tell. Once we got six to seven songs to that story we decided that would be what we would focus on. We essentially tried to round out the plot almost or the trajectory of the characters from the story we were telling with that story.
Bone Music itself the actual concept and where that name comes from is something that I’ve been aware of for a long time. Music was cut into x-rays during Soviet Era Russia when music was illegal. The distribution of music was illegal so a black market was created. So going back to the blue-collar worker and struggling your whole life that aesthetic is somewhat dark and somewhat cold. We realized that could easily be tied to similar things that went on during Soviet Era Russia and that there was sort of this thread going through. So Bone Music is the title and the origins historically of where that comes from are meant to portray the aesthetic we were pushing with the project.
Wow, there’s so much backstory. It’s so interesting that everything sort of ties into the story you were trying to tell. Dodgr I know you’re originally from L.A. How did you guys link up?
Dodgr: I moved to Portland in 2013 and was working at a dispensary in early 2015. Neill actually walked into the dispensary I was working at and one of my coworkers asked me to ring him up. They were like “Dodgr can you ring this guy up” and he was like “The Last Artful, Dodgr” and I was like “Yea, that’s me.” We linked that day. He told me about his studio space and we talked about hanging out and making some music. It just turned into this beautiful combination.
That’s awesome! So Neill you had heard of her?
Neill: Quite literally maybe 4 or 5 days previously was the first time I had heard of her. I was very excited to hear about her because I’m very involved in the Portland music scene and I’m always looking to know what’s going on here. Admittedly I wasn’t trying to seek her out or anything I was just happy to know that she existed and was doing her thing. But you know it’s undeniable. You read about someone and then a few days later they’re standing there in front of you. You can’t really ignore that.
Wow, talk about the universe working its magic.
Neill: Absolutely. Definitely serendipity there.
So at that point Neill were you already working with EYRST and developing that?
Neill: Yes, I co-founded EYRST with Martell. Essentially Martell was the financial backer and monetary founder behind it and then on my end I was more the vision and the goal. Why the label exists and what we’re trying to do. I had sort of picked out a few people who were going to help start EYRST and had gotten the initial funding and a studio space set-up. We had signed a few artists already. I definitely at that point wasn’t planning on signing anymore people but again Dodgr and I worked so well together there was no reason to not do this project under EYRST.
In your interview with Sway you described the project as this “dystopian industrial universe.” Do you feel that’s something that kind of ties into the current climate of the country and the things that are going on?
Dodgr: We actually just had this conversation in the studio yesterday. How Bone Music is proving itself to be a little revelatory and maybe even predicting some circumstances. I called it a post-industrial dystopian universe. You really could put Bone Music anytime in the near future, the far future, the past and it could be of relevance to what’s going on. There’s always going to be destruction. There’s always going to be turmoil within society and Bone Music is pretty much describing the inner turmoil that one faces amongst all the external is going on out in the world.
Neill: We sort of realized it’s even more relevant than we thought it would be. Which again we would never wish these circumstances to be the circumstances under which we’re releasing the project but at the same time we really hope that the project can speak to people. Maybe even more now and provide some solace or comfort in a sense. Being able to listen to the music and know that you’re not the only person that feels someway about what’s going on.
That’s something that I noticed EYRST prides itself on. This idea of creating music people can enjoy but also providing a sense of activism through that as well.
Neill: Yes, definitely. One of the main mission statements for EYRST is to ride that fine line between activism; where reality is and the fact that we need to be responsible human beings; but also the fact that we need a chance to let go. Escapism is a necessary tool for survival and you can’t really function as a human being if you’re always trying to escape or always focused on the harshness of reality. You’re either super depressed and won’t get anything done or you’re bouncing around so much you’re not really making a difference. We all need to in some ways at least do our part.
Dodgr I saw that you had the opportunity to perform as a backup singer for Aminé on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon when he performed his hit “Caroline.” How was that experience?
Dodgr: It was a lot of fun. I got a Facetime from Aminé like 3 days before he wanted me to fly out to New York. He told me he had this opportunity to be on Fallon and we wanted to make sure that his hometown was represented properly. So he wanted me to be one of his backup singers and help him with his hit song. Shoutout to that dude for giving me that experience. It was a lot of fun hanging out backstage and just getting to see The Tonight Show. That set is a lot smaller than one would expect. It’s super tiny but the people who work there are awesome and I can’t wait to go back on my own. Well not on my own with Neill actually but I mean not as someone’s backup singer. [Laughs]
Is there anything else you’d like to share about the project?
Dodgr: There’s a Instagram multiverse that we want people to definitely seek out. It’s @BoneMusicMultiverse. From there we’re revealing an accompanying screenplay and a bunch of different choose your own adventure style things.
Neill: We tried to just build this sort of multimedia universe so if people want to get into what we intended for the album they can but of course we want people to bring their own interpretations and come to their own decisions on what it is. Art honestly really comes to have its meaning on an individual level. We have a screenplay and some little things that we hope people will check out. It exists now. A couple of the songs are linked and then on Friday the rest will become unlocked. You’ll be able to go to an Instagram through the multiverse that represents each individual song so there’s 12 different Instagram accounts essentially.
Bone Music is available now on iTunes. It is also available for streaming on Spotify.

She is detailed and stays in regular communication on all aspects of your deal.

On our Purchase, we were in a bidding war, and Jaime was fierce in negotiating in our favour! Jaime comes with our highest recommendations!
Jaime has acted as the selling real estate agent for two of my properties the most recent which sold in April 2017. She is extremely thorough in completing the market analysis ensuring the sellar obtains the best possible price for the property. Her marketing strategies are very professional and ensure the widest possible exposure. Throughout the sales process she is prompt in keeping the sellar advised of showings as well as activity on comparable properties. Jaime is a real pleasure to work with and you can be confidant that she will do her best to sell your property. If you are looking to buy or sell in the Central Okanagan I would highly recommend Jaime.
Jaime is an exceptional agent. We are lucky to have met her and then to decide to list our home, then to sell very quickly. GREAT Job Jaime. Thanks again.
Because of us living in Vancouver, Jaime was good at keeping us informed of what was available in West Kelowna. When she showed us homes, we so appreciated her honesty about the home and she was good at know what we were looking for. We appreciated her guiding us through all the paperwork so effortlessly.
Jaime is extremely good at her job. She is personable, professional, knowledgeable and very friendly. We have used Jaime before as a Realtor, referred her to friends and family and will use her in the future.

Our house sold in 6 days!!! Jaime is extremely knowledgeable of the Real Estate market and was such a help with the purchase of our brand new build home!!! She knew just the right questions to ask the builder and we are so grateful for her personal experience. One of the greatest qualities that we appreciate is Jaime's willingness to continually be in contact with you. We were NEVER left wondering what was going on! Even after all the dust settled and we had moved into our new home, Jaime was still in contact with us making sure everything was okay! We highly recommend Jaime Briggs.
Jaime was completely professional in every aspect of the purchase of our new home and the sale of our current home. She has been very thorough, honest, accommodating, competent, knowledgeable and very supportive in every way. This has been a very positive experience in every way.
My spouse and I have relocated approximately 14 times throughout the years. However, this most recent move has proved to be without a doubt the most efficient and professional, primarily due to the efforts of Miss Jaime Briggs. For those of you whom are looking for a representative to truly provide all aspects of a Realtor, and then some, I would highly recommend the above Realtor. On behalf of my spouse and I, outstanding and thank you Jaime. You have truly outdone all previous competitors!!
James & Deanna
Hello Jaime: We just wanted to say thank you again for all of your help with finding us our new home. With everything we have planned this year (new home, baby, wedding) your efficiency, knowledgeable opinions and organization were very much appreciated. You helped us find our perfect home much faster than we expected to. We have heard that looking for a new house can be grueling, tiring and disappointing, but you made it so much fun for us. We thoroughly enjoyed working with you and will recommend you to everyone!
Jaime was a valuable partner in assisting my family during our move from another province. I can definitely say that she earned every penny of her commission. Thanks to Jaime, our move from out-of-province was stress-free and it went off without a hitch. She was able to find the perfect home for our needs and we are very happy with it. I can honestly say that Jaime went well above and beyond what I expect (and have experienced) from other real estate agents in the past. She even lent us furniture temporarily until our moving truck arrived! We have since recommended Jaime to many of our friends and they have all been very happy with her services as well.
We had been going to several open houses, viewing online and social media. Every point of exposure we would see Jaime. We met a few times & felt that she was a hard working & personable Realtor.
Jaime is the best. Love her. Very knowledgeable. Very hard worker. Works long hours and always looks her best.
Jaime's service was exceptional. She is very helpful, knowledgeable, and very professional. We would never consider anyone except Jaime as our Realtor.
Jan & Mark
Jaime was recommended to me by a colleague at work who described her as the "consummate professional;” the description was spot on. Jaime acted as our agent in the purchase of our new house. I was very impressed with her ability to get to the heart of what my husband (who was working out of town!) and I wanted in a new house. I was also impressed with the way she managed the entire process, working with us to ensure the purchase went smoothly. But what most impressed me was her after-sales service. When most agents are ready to pack up and leave, Jaime continued to work through any issues we had, following up to make sure that we not only were satisfied but very satisfied. This is what, in my mind, makes her stand out from other agents. Jaime Briggs has my recommendation!
We always felt in good hands and that our needs were fully being taken care of with Jaime as our Realtor.
Jaime was absolutely terrific and worked really hard for us. Thank you so much.
Jaime is very professional, very detailed oriented, prompt, works very hard for her clients, friendly, caring, super great.
We cannot express enough how professional & knowledgeable Jaime is. Punctual, communicates very well. Excellent negotiator!
Jaime got us an accepted offer in 3 days! Can't wait to use her again!
I interviewed 3 agents before deciding on Jaime Briggs. Her attention to detail & experience are what swayed me.
Excellent - Exceptional - Realtor! Great to deal with.
Annette & Randy
Jaime is VERY Professional.
Larry & Pat
Jaime has become a friend. She was very helpful and knowledgeable with the purchase of our house and gave us valuable info in selling our house. Definitely will use her again and recommend her whenever possible.
Ian & Thelma
Jaime worked hard to fulfill our 'wish list'. Thanks!
Deanna & Andrew
Jaime did a fantastic job. Her attention to detail and organization should be commended.
Wayne & Cynthia
Thank you. Jaime was great to deal with.
I appreciate all the communication, help, advice & very professional marketing strategies.
Don & Cindy
Jaime Briggs is an "Exceptional" Realtor! She is professional, very friendly, knowledgeable & is willing to do what needs to be done to sell our home. Her marketing skills are exceptional and she got us great value.
Jaime's customer service is well above average. Jaime's name was super honest and she was very accommodating for us.
Jaime is absolutely outstanding. She worked very hard to sell our home and made the purchase side of the transaction absolutely enjoyable. We would not hesitate to recommend Jaime as an agent to any of our friends. Thanks Jaime for everything!
Sincerely, Lisa Houghton President, Smith Creek Developments Inc
June 23, 2010
It is with great pleasure that I recommend Jaime Briggs as a real estate professional. My family, our related companies, and I have been working with Jaime for over three years. During this time, we have listed multiple newly constructed homes for sale with Jaime, which have always resulted in positive experiences. Despite an unstable economy, she was able to achieve profitable and successful sales while fulfilling the demands of all parties involved. Jaime has proven to be an honest and responsible person in her dealings with us, and we are constantly impressed with her organization, knowledge of the local housing market, and extensive advertising efforts. We are always informed of news involving our houses for sale and updates in the real estate economy as they happen, and look forward to her monthly package of marketing campaigns and open house announcements. With unparalleled work ethic, Jaime has gained our respect and confidence for all of our real estate ventures; we are fortunate to be able to relax and trust her to take care of the details from start to finish. Based on our experience, Jaime has a high degree of integrity and ambition; she is definitely a leader rather than a follower. Her positive attitude, honest reputation, and optimistic personality make her a pleasure to deal with. If you require any further information, please feel at liberty to contact me.
Jaime helped us find our current home (which we love) and sold a building lot for us as well. Throughout both transactions we found her to be very professional, patient & thorough. She goes 'above & beyond' in providing service (eg.) when we drove up to our house on closing day in November, we found Jaime knee-deep in snow, shovelling our stairs for us! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
The best thing I liked about Jaime is her confidence in what she is doing. She jumped in with both feet, gave us superior service and delievered. She was honest and upfront. If we move back to Canada in the future I would not hesitate to hire her to find us a house at a good price, as she sold our house with the utmost integrity. Thanks Jaime.
In May 2008, I needed to sell my home in Kelowna. I had met Jaime once before through mutual friends at an outing. I knew from the number of signs ( most of which had sold stickers on them ) she had in the Upper Mission that she was someone I needed to talk to. I called and we set up an appointment. She outlined how she approached her role as a realtor, we reviewed some marketing material and the next day we signed a listing agreement. Literally, the next day Kelowna became a buyers market! We were constantly in touch with information on showings, open houses, status of other listings & current sales. We continued to make sure we were priced right and adjusted accordingly. We endured through the fall of 2008 which saw the entire world take a step backwards and the home finally sold during a snow storm in January! Jaime always provided feedback from showings asap & often dropped off current copies of advertisings she had placed in various magazines etc. I would recommend anyone looking to buy or sell talk to Jaime!
Jaime was awesome! Our house had been listed with another realtor for about 15 months before we switched to Jaime. She helped us sell it in about a month.
B & L Ewert
We recently decided to sell a property that we had spent the last year renovating. When it came time to decide what real estate agent to use, we weren't happy with the ones we have used in the past, and decided to find a new one. Jaime came highly recommended to us, and after having her look at the property, we decided to list with her.We have sold numerous properties in the past, but we have never had a real estate agent quite like Jaime. She was honest, hard working, enthusiastic, efficient and effective. After only two days of the pictures (and they were great pictures) being on the internet, Jaime had an open house. We were shocked - no realtor that we had used in the past even had an open house for at least 3-4 weeks after the house being listed. We sold the house during the open house. We appreciate that this was an extremely quick sale, but we contribute this to Jaime's hard work and she continued to work hard for us until the conditions had all been removed. In addition, her feedback link on her website kepts us informed and again we had never seen that before.We feel she is a huge asset to Coldwell Banker and quite frankly, could be teaching others on ways to improve their skills. We highly recommend Jaime to anyone we know that is looking to buy or sell a home.
J & L Croy
We would like to thank you so much for all your hard work you did in helping us find the perfect home. In the few weeks you spent with us, you were so efficient and organized and always available to fit our schedule. You recognized and considered our need and budget and worked with this to find a home that fit our personality and lifestyle. I don't think we could have done this with any other realtor! We appreciate the time you took to show us all possibilities and options and really helped us think about what would be the "smarter choice" in buying our first home. Jaime you are truly excellent at what you do, we will definitely recommend your services in the future and we will be happy to work with you again when selling or buying our next home!
D & M O'Brien
Thank you so much for all your help in selling our house! We could not have done it without you!
Jaime was very professional and conscious of every detail. She was great to work with! We certainly recommend her!
N & S Rutherford
Jaime is our "Okanagan-Brenda". Brenda was our long-term Realtor in Maple Ridge. We were extremely loyal to her. Jaime is in the same league as being a FANTASTIC Realtor and really worked hard for us!
E & K Foster
Wow! What a great job selling our house. Very dedicated and professional. Thank you Jaime.
Jaime went above & beyond to sell our house! We were very impressed with her dedication & motivation! We would buy from her anytime.
G & W LeClaire
We met Jaime Briggs at an open house prior to looking with an agent in Kelowna. She seemed well informed and eager to help us. We could not be happier.
Jaime was excellent. She went out of her way on many occasions to help us with this deal. We are VERY happy and will definitely use her again.
Jaime has been very supportive every step of the way. She's honest and direct and very knowledgeable of the market. She's helping us sell our house now (after buying). I'd recommend her!
Jaime was the perfect rep for us! We will use Jaime again.
Jaime worked long hours & spent lots of time on my house deal. She is honest and driven and helpful and enjoys her job, and it shows. I am very appreciative of all that she did for me.
Jaime was very thorough and attentive to our needs. She was always available and bent over backwards to finalize the deal. She was very nice and we appreciated her help.
Very professional and extremely happy with the amount of time she spent with us in finding the perfect house!
R & J Schiller
Jaime Briggs is awesome! We were moving to Kelowna from Calgary & showed up to look at properties with very little notice and were only in town for 1 1/2 days. Jaime worked her butt off and showed us everything in our price range. Once we had selected the house, she even showed us around our new neighborhood. Jaime did an awesome job.

One of the things that should set science fiction, fantasy and paranormal (SFFP) books apart is their cover. I often see SFFP covers that don't give any indication of the SFFP content inside. So how DOES a cover say SFFP?
First and foremost a cover should reflect, evoke or allude to the content inside, but that in itself is not enough. The cover also needs to include elements that reflect their particular genre. This is especially important for indie authors and/or new authors. Not everyone is Philip K Dick so not everyone can rely on such a minimalist cover to sell their book.
The above cover could be almost any genre, including a math textbook.
Here are some elements that help evoke genre.
Stars and space - mainly they work for science fiction/space travel but they can also work in some fantasy or paranormal novels
Mist - a mainstay of urban paranormal, also might have a place in high fantasy or sci-fiction
Flares - can be used in any of these genres. They are particularly useful in highlighting the title treatment but can also take the place of fairies or other magical creatures.
Magical creatures - obviously only relevant if the BOOK has magical creatures!
Manipulated coloring - can work on any SFFP genre.
Leather! - a mainstay of the Urban Fantasy or Urban Paranormal genre (see also above cover!)
Specialized weapons - relevant to all SFFP genres
For indie authors, the final consideration is whether a cover look can be replicated. Most of us rely on series and serials, companion books and free shorts or novella to help drive traffic to our new books. For his reason we need to make sure the cover design we choose will fit into a strong series concept. Several of these above are part of series. Here are a couple more:

Don´t keep the bike parked inside all winter in Edmonton when you can have a beautiful ride to sunny Phoenix AZ and put it in storage there for the winter - and then got RIDE it at least once during the 7 months you normally wouldn´t even see it!
Yes, you could drive straight to Phoenix on the main highways in about 3 days, but it´s a bike - so take the scenic route. See BOTH sides of the amazing Grand Canyon, and lots more.
I spent a fair bit of time planning this route and it wound up great except for two places where after a long day of riding in warm sun I was unable to get a cold beer (ugh!).
Starting at my usual meeting point at the highway weigh scales just south of Leduc on the QE2. This is a great place to meet up with your buddies for any ride out of Edmonton going south. There´s a large open area that´s rarely used where you can wait for each other. If the scales are not busy, yes you ARE welcome to ride across them and weigh your bike. Those scales, as big as they are, are accurate to about 5 or 10 kg!
Stopping for gas in Red Deer, you can likely use the new east bypass around Calgary. It´s a very long perfect straight, but it gets you all the way past Calgary in about 25 minutes!
Stop in Nanton for a nice break with a tour of the Bomber Command Museum. It´s a small, excellent, very hands-on museum with tons of very cool things to see which are likely interesting even to those who are not that interested in war or airplanes.
When you cross the border into Montana, take the scenic route through St. Mary - one of the very best motorcycle rides in that part of the country.
The Holiday Inn Express in Browning is VERY motorcycle friendly. They even have a special bin of wash rags and bucket of soapy water right at the main entrance especially for their biker guests.
From Browning, take the gorgeous route through Glacier park. If you want to go to Whitefish, cool, otherwise, head straight down to Missoula via the smaller roads and you will be rewarded with awesome scenery.
Keep going south after Missoula to Salmon. Gorgeous town with a really nice fast running small river which is great to watch from your hotel balcony at the Stagecoach Inn.
Head south out of Salmon and be rewarded with about 2.5 hours of non-stop twisties on perfect roads.
Now the un-fun part - you pretty much have to take the interstate from Pocatello through Salt Lake City Riding through SLC is HORRIBLE. It is pretty much always bumper to bumper parking lot for a good hour or more, and there are very few reasonable detours to take. So, before entering SLC, make sure your tank is filled and your bladder drained, put on the tunes (if you have them) and relax as you putt through this mess.
A while after SLC is a little armpit called Nephi which offers a few fairly cheap hotels at the very south end. Warning! That awesome looking steakhouse beside the last motel is OK, but it is DRY (no alcohol). So if all you want is a cold beer after sitting in the SLC traffic jam for two hours, be warned.
Leaving Nephi, head east a bit to get onto the back roads down to Bryce Canyon. Gorgeous drive except for one bit shortly before Bryce park which has a ridiculously low speed limit (like about 30 mph where it should easily be 50 or more). Ride down into Bryce and check out the amazing views.
From Bryce my intention was to go to Kanab, a hidden gem of a city. Just check out the YouTube tourism video of it to see what I mean. However, ALL the hotels in Kanab were booked, even though it was off-season, so I found a good deal at the Cedar Breaks Lodge in Brian Head UT. Absolutely amazing ride through forests of twists to get there. Note, it´s about 9500 feet above sea level, so check the weather first. When I went it was perfect, but it did drop from about 26C at Bryce to 8C when I arrived in Brian Head in the early evening.
Leave Brian Head as soon as it´s warm enough to do so (I left about 08:00 and it was 9C in the sunshine), and have breakfast in Kanab. There´s a Mexican restaurant about half way through town that serves breakfast. They have an outside patio and in Kanab, it´s quite warm early in the morning (it was 25C at09:30).
From Kanab, enjoy a nice drive to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. The North Rim is far less touristy than the South Rim, and it´s amazing how they let you walk right out onto the very edge and dangle your feet over! The South Rim is all railings and safety barriers.
From the North Rim, it´s quite a drive around to the South Rim. Stop at Marble Canyon for an opportunity to get a photo of your bike with amazing red cliffs behind it, then stop off at the crazy-ass tall bridge over the canyon.
I stopped for the night in Tuba City. It was a long day of hiking the North Rim and riding in the hot sun, so all I wanted when I checked into the nice, and very reasonably priced Moenkopi Legacy Inn was a cold beer. D´oh! I was informed that Tuba City is on ´dry indian lands´ and the nearest alcohol is about a 1.5 hour drive away. Never mind, I watched the amazing eclipse of 2015 from the totally dark field behind the hotel instead.
From Tuba City, it´s a couple hours of nice riding to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. What I found second most amazing, after the canyon itself, is that this is a HUGE tourist draw with large parking lots for tour busses and all, that has ONE crappy little washroom facility with a HUGE lineup to get in. It was mind boggling how they can spend so much money making a multi-building tourist facility with about 3 toilets per 1000 visitors.
From South Rim it´s a beautiful ride for about an hour to Flagstaff, then back on the Interstate to Phoenix. Top up your gas when you can because it´s surprisingly far between fuel stops.
In Phoenix, I stored the bike at CubeSmart Storage on E Washington St. It is literally adjacent to PHX airport, although it´s almost an hour walk all the way around the end of the runway to the terminal, so a cab is recommended. The lockers there are ALL drive-up, so parking the bike is a breeze. My FJR1300 slid right in. I don´t think a much wider bike like Goldwing or Harley would fit, better phone for door measurement first.
