Goldsmiths University of London Occupational Psychology
Goldsmiths University of London Occupational Psychology
Training as an Occupational Psychologist in the Institute of Management Studies will equip you with the scientific knowledge and practical skills to challenge the status quo and offer innovative solutions to workplace problems.
Occupational Psychology, both as a professional and academic field, seeks to address questions of critical importance in business and enterprise.
- How can we select the best employees?
- How can we enhance health and performance?
- What does effective leadership look like?
- What impact does coaching really have?
The MSc in Occupational Psychology, run by the Institute of Management Studies, will equip you with the knowledge and skills to begin considering these questions. The programme has been designed in line with British Psychological Society (BPS) Division of Occupational Psychology (DOP) requirements and has been accredited since 1995. We recently updated our programme content in line with the 2014 changes to the DOP Occupational Psychology curriculum and, as of September 2014, we are teaching in line with the new curriculum.
The MSc in Occupational Psychology aims to equip you with a thorough grounding in the application of psychological theory to work settings, to provide you with the skills necessary to conduct cutting-edge research in applied research projects to a high level of competence, and to impart core practitioner techniques and awareness.
Excellent employment rates
The programme's success is increasingly reflected in the excellent employment rates of our former MSc students in both public and private sectors. Some students also go on to carry out PhD level study with us to become academic Occupational Psychologists.
Develop a theoretical and empirical knowledge base
In the IMS we work to the academic-practitioner model. That is, our Occupational Psychology programme is specifically designed to equip you with a theoretical and empirical knowledge base that you can bring to your consultancy and practice. To that end, you'll have the opportunity to engage in both cutting edge research, as well as practical skills sessions. For your research dissertation you'll have access to academics with expertise in areas such as occupational health and wellbeing, talent management and entrepreneurship.
Distinguished Speakers Series
In addition, in the IMS we have an invited speakers' programme called the Distinguished Speakers Series. This series provides specialised talks by either academic or practising experts in various fields of business, enterprise and occupational psychology.
Contact the department
If you have specific questions about the degree, contact Jo Lloyd
Entry requirements
You should have an undergraduate degree in Psychology, or in a relevant subject (not necessarily Psychology), of at least upper second class standard. Relevant work experience will be an advantage.
Important information about career routes in occupational psychology
For those applicants who have a BSc or a BA in Psychology from a university that is accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS) (This is also known as having Graduate Basis for Chartership; GBC), the Goldsmiths' MSc in Occupational Psychology (if successfully completed) will allow you to progress to BPS Stage two training, and eventually attain professional chartership in occupational psychology (if Stage two BPS requirements are met).
For those applicants who have a BSc or a BA in Psychology from a university that is not accredited by the BPS, you will not be eligible for the BPS Stage two training at present, but will nevertheless be welcome to join the Goldsmiths' MSc in Occupational Psychology. Importantly, it may be possible for you to gain BPS recognition for your non-accredited BA or BSc in Psychology through applying directly to the BPS through this link.
For those applicants who are unable to gain BPS recognition for their BSc or BA in Psychology, and those applicants who have a BSc or a BA in a discipline outside of psychology, you will not be eligible for the BPS Stage two training at present, but will nevertheless be welcome to join the Goldsmiths' MSc in Occupational Psychology. Applicants in this situation may consider completing a BPS accredited psychology postgraduate conversion course prior to undertaking the MSc in Occupational Psychology. This will permit eventual progression to the BPS Stage two training, if the MSc in Occupational Psychology is successfully attained.

Bail was set at $250,000 for a 33-year-old man who barricaded himself inside a Kennewick apartment for seven hours after allegedly threatening to kill the resident with a gun.
Jorge Garcia Jr. pleaded innocent this week in Benton County Superior Court and is set for trial Sept. 8.
He's charged with two counts of second-degree assault and one count of felony harassment, each with a domestic violence allegation and a firearm enhancement.
He also faces charges for unlawful imprisonment with a domestic violence allegation, possession of methamphetamine and two counts of first-degree unlawful possession of a gun.
Garcia has been in the Benton County jail since his arrest July 11 following the standoff at a West 21st Avenue complex.
Kennewick police and the Tri-City Regional SWAT Team made several attempts to talk Garcia into leaving the apartment and tried to force him to leave by shooting tear gas canisters through windows. Officers had their weapons drawn for hours in front of the apartment, and eventually SWAT team members climbed onto a balcony and entered through a sliding door.
Police were tipped off that something allegedly was wrong inside the apartment when a resident sent her friend a text message saying Garcia held a gun to her head.
The woman told police that Garcia, who's from Pasco, had been living at her Kennewick apartment for some time, renting one of the bedrooms, court documents said. She became concerned about Garcia continuing to stay there because it was obvious he was selling narcotics from her house and, as a convicted felon herself, she didn't want to be around the drugs, documents said.
The woman said she had confronted Garcia about her concerns, then he became agitated and accused his housemate of stealing some of his money, court documents said.
She denied it and Garcia left the bedroom, but he returned with a .45-caliber pistol, documents said.
Garcia allegedly raised the gun and pointed it at her, saying, "I will shoot you. I will (expletive) kill you, I don't even care." Meanwhile, he continued to demand his money back.
Garcia again left the bedroom. He returned a short time later and put the gun to the woman's temple while holding onto her by the neck, court documents said. He repeatedly blamed her for stealing his money and said he would kill her if he didn't get it back, documents said.
The woman, who was wearing only her underwear, tried to leave the apartment about 7:15 a.m. but Garcia grabbed her arm and pulled her back inside, documents said.
Police arrived and Garcia "then appeared to panic and retreated back inside the apartment," court documents said. He used couches, a bed and a refrigerator to barricade the apartment's door, police said.
After his arrest, officers searched the apartment and found the guns and drugs.
Garcia's three prior felony convictions are for second-degree burglary, third-degree assault and possession of a controlled substance.
Garcia also has a pending felony charge of possession with intent to delivery methamphetamine in Franklin County Superior Court. An arrest warrant was issued in May after he failed to appear for a hearing.
Court documents for that case say Garcia is known to the Tri-City Metro Drug Task Force as "a mid-level drug trafficker."
A confidential informant reported to a detective in early April that Garcia had been overheard talking about going to Sunnyside to replenish his supply of drugs, court documents said.
At the time, Garcia's driver's license was suspended and he had a warrant for his arrest.
Two days later, the same informant reported seeing Garcia arrive at a Pasco home in a red Cadillac sedan and place a bag in the car's trunk.
A Pasco officer stopped Garcia as he was seen driving away from the home. The Cadillac was impounded and, while in storage, an officer and his K-9 partner walked around the car and the dog reportedly gave "a positive alert" for narcotics.
Police got a search warrant and allegedly found 26.48 grams of crystal meth and a scale inside a handbag that was sitting on the rear passenger side seat.

When your currency lost one third of its value in 24 hours ii creates chaos. The effect is jacking up the prices of all imports causing frenzy buying a high priced items.
Russia gets 80 percent of its revenues from oil.
Oil is down 40%.
Trading in the Russian ruble was volatile early Wednesday morning, rallying briefly on news that the Finance Ministry was ready to sell some of its foreign currency reserves, and then weakening again.
The ministry said Wednesday morning that it was prepared to sell as much as $7 billion of those reserves to support the ruble, which a senior official said was "extremely undervalued."
We will sell "as much as we need to," Alexei V. Moiseev, the deputy finance minister, told journalists, the Interfax news agency reported. Separately, Interfax said that the Finance Ministry had already begun selling currency reserves.
The ruble was at 68.25 to the dollar in midmorning trading. It closed at 67.50 on Tuesday, when it swung wildly to about 80 rubles to the dollar after opening the day at 64.
The fear was sparked by the plummeting ruble, which has dropped 17 percent against the dollar in two days despite a dead-of-night decision Tuesday by the Russian central bank to impose a steep interest-rate hike to stem the currency losses.
Russia's central bank hiked interest rates from 10.5 percent to 17 percent to try to tempt foreign investors to buy ruble-denominated assets even at the price of a potentially devastating recession
Putin remains tremendously popular in Russia, but his rule has long been predicated on a basic bargain with voters: They gain economic prosperity and stability in exchange for acquiescence to a political life devoid of real opposition. His half of the deal now appears in question.
Currency traders seem to be betting that at this pace Russia will run out of reserves before oil prices get high again.
Net capital outflow may reach $134 billion this year, more than double last year's total.
The ruble, which has depreciated 50 percent this year against the dollar, is the worst performer among more than 170 currencies tracked by Bloomberg.
1998 was huge devaluation and default on Russian debt. Russia's actions indirectly led to the collapse of LTCM—a major hedge fund which required an unprecedented $3.6 billion bailout orchestrated by the US Federal Reserve.
But while markets gyrated in 1998, the US economy benefitted from three positives: consumers' purchasing power benefitted from the drop in oil; the strong dollar boosted profit margins for importers and helped keep the Federal Reserve from tightening policy; and the drop in interest rates lowered mortgage rates and boosted home affordability.

It was a dark and stormy night; Meg Murry, her small brother Charles Wallace, and her mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most disturbing stranger. "Wild nights are my glory," the unearthly stranger told them. "I just got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment, and then I'll be on my way. Speaking of ways, by the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract." A tesseract (in case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book. A Wrinkle in Time, winner of the Newbery Medal in 1963, is the story of the adventures in space and time of Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin O'Keefe (athlete, student, and one of the most popular boys in high school). They are in search of Meg's father, a scientist who disappeared while engaged in secret work for the government on the tesseract problem.

Seven-year-old Lena wants to use brown paint to paint a picture of herself. She and her mother take a walk, and Lena learns that brown comes in many different shades.
Tucker is a streetwise city mouse. He thought he'd seen it all. But he's never met a cricket before, which really isn't surprising, because, along with his friend Harry Cat, Tucker lives in the very heart of New York City—the Times Square subway station. Chester Cricket never intended to leave his Connecticut meadow. He'd be there still if he hadn't followed the entrancing aroma of liverwurst right into someone's picnic basket. Now, like any tourist in the city, he wants to look around. And he could not have found two better guides—and friends—than Tucker and Harry. The trio have many adventures—from taking in the sights and sounds of Broadway to escaping a smoky fire. Chester makes a third friend, too. It is a boy, Mario, who rescues Chester from a dusty corner of the subway station and brings him to live in the safety of his parents' newsstand. He hopes at first to keep Chester as a pet, but Mario soon understands that the cricket is more than that. Because Chester has a hidden talent and no one—not even Chester himself—realizes that the little country cricket may just be able to teach even the toughest New Yorkers a thing or two.
Doomed to—or blessed with—eternal life after drinking from a magic spring, the Tuck family wanders about trying to live as inconspicuously and comfortably as they can. When ten-year-old Winnie Foster stumbles on their secret, the Tucks take her home and explain why living forever at one age is less a blessing that it might seem. Complications arise when Winnie is followed by a stranger who wants to market the spring water for a fortune.

Salvador Jiménez-Flores recently displayed an installation work entitled I Am Not Who You Think I Am/No soy queen crees que soy (detail pictured above) at the Grand Rapids Art Museum as a part of ArtPrize 2014, in which a series of fired clay self portraits line the wall in a single line–each with a distinct set of characteristics related to themes of identity, immigration, culture, transition, religion, language, and knowledge.
His work touches on the recurring theme of the relationship between identity and the transition between two cultures: rural Mexico and metropolitan America. Jiménez-Flores' work began as a way to cope with the move from a small town in Mexico, a transition that was made more difficult by his initial limited grasp of the English language. As he combed his history and his transition in the present for an understanding of his identity, amidst major change and dichotomous cultural experiences, he used art as a means of expressing himself and coming to terms with new experiences that simultaneously looked back at his life in Mexico. He writes:
In my work I document my journey to adapt to living in the United States, while looking back at what I left behind in México. The challenge of being bicultural and bilingual is that I live concurrently in two different worlds. Neither my adaptation to a foreign land nor the return to my motherland will ever be complete. Everywhere, I am a foreigner.
Jiménez-Flores sees himself as an artist-activist who feels a responsibility to his community to address issues that affect them and to use art as a medium through which to express ideas, outrage, motives, memories, even confusion.

When it comes to young women and their periods, Endometriosis is a very scary word. The last thing a young girl wants to face besides cramps is the possibility of a life time of debilitating pain. Endometriosis, often called "Endo," affects over 5 million women in North America alone. While Endo is one of the most common gynecological diseases, it is also a disease that is fairly new. There is not much known about Endometriosis, as what causes it and how it works are still mysteries to doctors and patients alike. The symptoms are general to regular pre-menstrual and menstrual issues: cramps, heavy bleeding, etc, though often these symptoms are on a much larger scale. Many don't understand exactly what Endometriosis is, as many feel the disease is nothing more than a really painful period. On the contrary, Endo is a disease that can cause health problem after health problem, and surgery after surgery with no relief. In a nut shell, Endometriosis is when the tissue of a woman's uterus (aptly called the endometrium) grows in areas around the pelvis outside of the uterus. For instance, the ovaries, fallopian tubes, bowels, bladder and appendix, as well as inside and outside of the uterus itself are the organs that usually fall pray to Endometriosis adhesions. Endo has also been known to spread to one's lungs, which causes the lung to collapse once a month during menstruation. The scary thought is that with the limited knowledge the world has on this disease, the education is limited. Doctors keep their patients in the dark, offering a harsh drug called Lupron as a quick fix for pain, or using pregnancy as a cure. One treatment is as unsuccessful as the next. The only defining way to know if one has Endo is through a minimally invasive surgical procedure called a laparoscopy. Endometriosis cannot in anyway be seen on an ultrasound, nor can it be seen on an MRI or CAT scan. Any doctor who diagnoses a patient without a "lap" cannot be trusted, in my very humble opinion. On that topic, if a doctor pushes you to become pregnant or insists on Lupron, leave the office and find another physician. Pregnancy is NOT a cure, and while on average 40% of women with Endometriosis suffer from infertility, they also usually conceive with some medical help and hormone treatments.
I made this blog with a purpose, as most bloggers do... I want to be heard, or rather... I want Endo suffers to be heard. I'll go through every aspect of what Endometriosis is about, from surgeries, to diets, to Endo in pop-culture, and of course, my own experience. I've been given this disease for a reason, and hopefully one day I'll make a difference :)
Welcome to my Endo Blog! LET'S START THE FIGHT AGAINST ENDOMETRIOSIS!

I figured that after two posts in a row about food I needed to mix things up a bit. Here are a few songs currently making my playlists recently.
"Sigh No More" - Mumford & Sons
"Love will not betray,
dismay or enslave you,
It will set you free
Be more like the man
you were made to be.
There is a design,
An alignment, a cry,
Of my heart to see,
The beauty of love
as it was made to be"
"MarryYou" - Bruno Mars
I love the sound of this song even though I can't say I agree with the view on marriage ;)
"Forget You" - Cee Lo Green (the edited version ;))
This is another one that I really love the sound and feel of. It can make me smile even when I'm in a super crappy mood.
"To Build a Home" - The Cinematic Orchestra
An incredible song. I love the way it builds and swells. I could listen to this song on repeat for hours.
"In These Arms" - The Swell Season
Such a beautiful song. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova sound so great together.
"Flightless Bird, American Mouth" - Iron & Wine
Love this song. It's so chill and very pretty.
"Someone Like You" - Adele
I'm slightly obsessed with her new album, and this is my favorite of the whole cd. A beautiful song. Daniel sounds pretty cute singing the chorus ;)
"Parachute" - Ingrid Michaelson
It's a pretty big departure from your typical Ingrid Michaelson, but it works and it's fun to sing along to.
"Transatlanticism" - Death Cab for Cutie
This was the song I listened to all the time when I was in Hamburg for three months in college. It's still one of my go-to songs when I'm missing the states and my family.
"Canvas" - Imogen Heap
I love her music. This song is so great.
"Blood Bank" - Bon Iver
I can't get enough of Bon Iver. This song is often stuck in my head.
"Wake Up" - The Arcade Fire
An amazing song. Hearing it on the preview for "Where the Wild Things Are" made me want to see that movie.
"Norwegian Wood" - The Beatles
I don't think this one needs an explanation.
"Paris (Ooh La La)" - Grace Potter & the Nocturnals
I downloaded this before we drove to Paris for Christmas. It's a really fun song.
"Cosmic Love" - Florence + the Machine
I love the epic feel to this song.
Okay, that's probably enough for now. I listen to A LOT of music, so there are plenty of songs making the rotation these days. ;)

I also picked up this set of Dina Wakely stamps with all these flying birds on it. How fun are they?
And speaking of birds, here's a few photos I took last Saturday out in our boat.
That's all for me today. Hope your weeks is going good!
And thanks for stopping by my blog.


text: Following New York hotel trends could be a full-time job. There's the boutique movement to make stays feel homier, and the hipster movement to make lodgers feel they're riding the cutting edge. There's a slew of hotels by Ian Schrager, where an overnight is the equivalent of getting the man's autograph. Minimalist design means lots of black-and-beige and the dozen square feet of emptiness that passes for space in cramped New York. All those things are very much in play, along with lobbies decked out as sports bars or art galleries or drawing rooms or bistros or some other theme-theme-theme, in order to create a lobby scene and lots of buzz, and room rates that go up-up-up.

My last post on Beadfest beads was filled with photographs of colorful beads. This one on what I bought is a little duller – monochromatic as I mostly bought metal or metallic paints. You can buy anything and everything you want while Shopping in USA but when you are on an extremely tight budget, shopping for art or jewelry supplies can be considered a frivolous pursuit. Still, I managed to shop and here is my haul – artsy/crafty and jewelry related things that I bought at Michaels and at Beadfest. Apart from these items I shopped only for food, Disney souvenirs, and yes "Foreign" Chocolates to feed 100 hungry mouths back home 😀
Outside the US, the word 'Michaels' conjures strong images of a treasure filled cave like structure (from Alladin) in the minds of crafters. You imagine endless aisles of crafting supplies that are to be reverently bought and carefully used. So when you step in to the store, it is a sort of an anticlimax moment – it is after all, just a craft store, that is going to tempt you to spends three times your budget.
I loved the flowers and art materials (at the King of Prussia store) but felt that the beads were far too expensive. Most beads sold there are from India or China and even at 50% off they were atleast twice their original price. So I bought some artistic wire, wire gauge, mini canvases, Prismacolor pencils for coloring on metal, Pebeo paints (my biggest splurge there), metallic alcohol inks, some rhinestone connectors and metal texturing plates. I also found a really cute Mickey – Minnie T shirt in the kids coloring section for $3.5 that was surprisingly well made and I wore it to Disneyworld.
My friends later told me, that they never shop at Michaels without a coupon. I didn't have one, so I checked the price of everything in Indian web stores, their availability or lack thereof and only when I found a bargain I bought it. I swear I have never made so many currency conversion calculations in a single day at the end of which I became fluent in the multiplication table of the number 69. Inspite of my crazy calculations, I still spent about $132 there, which was 2/3rds of my shopping budget for the entire US trip. I left Michaels thanking God for wonderful relatives, who believed in giving me cash gifts, that I could spend on art supplies.
Since I was at Beadfest the entire weekend, I was able to look through the booths more than once which translates into – going overboard my budget even though a lot of what I wanted to buy wasn't available to. My first bead purchase were the decoupaged and resin beads. I have great plans for the Frieda beads and the banana fiber horn. I bought a Xuron cutter for 12g-18g, hard solder paste, a cup burr (which was quite difficult to find) Apart from these I spent bulk of my budget at the Metallaferous booth buying textured metal, chain, bracelet blanks and a locket and at the Parawire booth buying (yes) more wire and 5 in 1 texturing hammer which has been on my list for 3 years now.
I also bought some UV resin to try as my students keep asking me about it, some casted metal for coloring and really cool enamel headpins which was my "best buy". The Artist was selling it for just a dollar a bunch on Sunday afternoon as end of show special. On the last day, I finally gave in and bought some beetle wings and Afghan coins. My mom has been behind my life to get myself some swarovski or cubic zirconia earrings that look like solitaires and not wanting to disappoint her I finally found some luscious earrings with Cubic Zirconia (mine look like solitaries and hers are snowflakes) for the both of us. Also, my parents were getting our apartment painted while I was away and in the middle of all that chaos my mom lost her new (aka my old phone) and was extremely upset. So I got her some swarovski pearls because I was feeling really bad for her and put away some cash for a new phone.
What is a good haul post without some freebies thrown in? I got awesome swag from the Ice resin booth – you guys are the best !! and some really yummy beads made by Lori Schneider who along with Robin Showstack were my roommates for a couple of days. It was so much fun being with them.
Out of the three beads, the beetle is my favourite (the hieroglyphics beads is the back of the beetle) and I am so happy to have some really cool artisan beads that I can use for challenges and contests.
That concludes my account of my Shopping in USA. I realize that I have been incredibly slow in posting about my trip and even when I do, its not in the right order. But then, with one infection after the other, I am all wiped out. All my energy is spent on just preparing for class and getting there on time, that I just don't feel like doing anything else. Finally I made some Jewelry the past weekend for the BNB "A day at the beach" Challenge – Beach sparkle necklace and Color pops necklace. Do check them out and like them to vote for me
I hope you found it interesting

Citizens v2.0
MyPet-NPC (Citizens Trait)
Sentry (Citizens Trait)
Builder (Citizens Trait)
Spells list is reduced from 450! to 390 ish since updati from 1.7.9 to 1.8

Server has 10GB ram 8 core Xeon V3 CPU 28 GB solid state disc. 105 slot.
Sister test server is whitelist 38 slot Bukkit 1.7.9 / 1.8 R01
Host: Beastnode
Location: Netherlands EU

OP Enchants are enabled here.
Custom enchants.
LOADS of mobs.
Public server facilities.
Custom OP Jobs. Integrating 350 custom spells + many perks into 7 jobs as level up rewards.
(Magicspells 3.1 by Nisovin + Jobs 2.12.0 by phrstbrn)
Server Unique OP McMMO++ experience with MagicSpells & Jobs integratation.
You may take 5 of 7 jobs here. 350 spells. More homes. "odd" permissions. Through jobs!
Read that? 350.. spells.. Abilities.. Madness.. Trickery.. Much power to explore! (Actually 390)
Every few jobs levels you can /c list and /c help newspell'sname to see what you just learned.
Spells are for the most part built into jobs. Farmers get farming spells, miners get mining ones,
raiders get travel, damage and protection spells, mechanics get crafty stuff.. and so on.
A farmer, after a while can replant entire horizons with a few clicks fully ready to harvest. Free.
Many ridiculously useful spells are seeded into jobs. Create water in the nether for example.
Every mob head in the game & more drops here. We have also added mcMMO.
PVP World (Is being moved to new world in development Caelus VERY soon)
Seperate inventory /backpack /enderchest for this world.
We have tried to limit the ability to cheat here. It is for the most part a legitimate world.

Land Claims = Sky to bedrock 140 blocks wide for just placing 1 emerald ore.
Shift click and define a new size to resize and shift click again to finish, done.
While you resize a field place more of the same block type to add more size. Easy.
Each field has many configurable options for you to try out or you can use the handy defaults.
Performance notes.
The server's config for magic spells is 6000+ lines long and jobs is 3000. Plugin timings show
whisper quiet jobs/magicspells near zero drain on 20 tps.
You can (with right rank+) check the server ram, tps, chunks, entities and perform maintenance with a single spell.
You will note no block update lag, ever. EVERY harvestable item is put into jobs not just
"crops" as most servers have, so boring "farmer". The custom jobs here is very rewarding and
pays for almost all kills, crafting, repairs, enchants, harvest, blockbreak and place. XP AND cash.
^ mcMMO I finally added it to compliment jobs and survival play. All skills. All ranks. ;p no bugs.
Jobs EXP reduced by 50%. 18 Jan.
Was causing TPS hang issue with mcMMO skill level EXP. Hanged server every time! :O
Apparently mcMMO (bukkit 1.7.9 R02) cant stand ridiculously high jobs exp payouts?
This issue is fixed now testing vs 100s mobs a time. Exp was the issue. mcMMO & Jobs.
Custom self written plugin CraftyZombies has a on item drop listener for rotten flesh replace.
Large groups of giants cuasing 100s of baby zombies on death could spike the TPS with
item replace spam. This issue is still causing TPS spikes on large spell based grinders
such as /c cbacubes and /c gbathole. Crafty zombies greatly supports rank up money.
It will be removed shortly and the renkup costs reduced. ;)
EXP Orbs dont drop on this server (worldguard setting) Jobs is set to do this instead
auto paying EXP to level bar as it's earned.

Andy Reid did a fine job in keeping his Kansas City Chiefs up for their NFL showdown on Sunday in a 45-10 win against the Washington Redskins, but he has to do it for three mores games if the Chiefs are going to enter the playoffs with enough momentum to get something significant accomplished.
After a 9-0 start, the Chiefs faltered in three games, albeit two of those losses were to the Denver Broncos. Obviously the Chiefs were in danger of losing the momentum they picked up in their undefeated start, and will very possibly have to take a wild card spot into the playoffs since the Broncos won't be easy to move out of that top spot in the AFC East.
Building a 38-10 lead at halftime helped the Chiefs gain momentum in a hurry. The Redskins were struggling, but the Chiefs weren't going to be fussy on who they beat. They badly needed a win.
Reid has to keep his team in the proper focus for the next three games, which include two road tests at the Oakland Raiders and the San Diego Chargers, plus a home game with the Indianapolis Colts. It's never easy to advance deep into the playoffs by way of the wild card route, but it's been done frequently in the past. Wild card teams that enter the playoffs playing well usually have great success, and that needs to be Reid's goal with Kansas City. The three-game losing streak is over, and now it's time for a four-game win streak heading into the playoffs to make the Chiefs a bona fide Super Bowl contender.

Big Love
But the kids loved it and I loved having the company all day.
Six kids, ages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, in a van. Serious, delicious, chaos.
Though later we got smart and took turns running outside-the-van errands so that we would not have to do the full-on clown car routine every time we stopped.
When we got to our destination, downtown for the kiddie train, I remembered with a flash of "oh crap" that in all the chaos I had forgotten to put Wes's shoes into the car. No matter, he is almost always barefoot at home, so he didn't complain about walking across the parking lot or the gravel trails and my city is known for it's free thinkers. If a man wearing a bikini and a full-length fur coat on a street corner can be beloved by the population then my three year old can get away with a little barefoot action on the kiddie train. And the playground. And lunch, which even I will admit is pushing it but thankfully at the restaurant the cashier took the offhand remark I made about being sisterwives with Amy seriously and then she just thought I was part of a fringe religious group and not merely a neglectful mother. Amy was too polite to say anything, but I sense that they do things differently in the Big City where she lives.
We had a big time on the train. Wes sat with the ladies.
At lunch when I ordered three kids' meals the cashier said "Aren't there six of them?" and I replied "Oh, yeah, we're sister wives" and gestured at Amy who was ordering for her family. The cashier looked at me very seriously and said "Oh." I tried to backpedal but it was loud in there and I don't think she heard me.
Lunch went as well as it can go with six under six crammed into a booth and then we stuffed everyone back into the car and made a vow to each other that the next time these children saw the light of day would be in my backyard because there was no way in hell they were getting out of that car one more time until we got home. We drove to a spot where Google promised we would find a hipster ice cream sandwich food truck only to learn, after getting the kids all! fired! up! about ice cream ice cream ice cream! that they were closed for some random reason that was posted on their Twitter feed about three minutes prior to our visit. After we all shook off the disappointment we headed to another food truck and ordered cupcakes for everyone (which were eaten in the car) and the afternoon was saved!
On the way home most of the kids fell asleep so we ran Amy by Chick-fil-A to satisfy a lemonade craving and then headed to the grocery store for dinner supplies and wine.
I left Amy in the car with three sleeping and three awake kids and RAN into the store. Like literally ran through the aisles throwing food into the cart--all the ingredients for a kid-friendly chicken fajita dinner, a couple of gallons of milk, and the first bottle of seven dollar wine that caught my eye went in. I was back to the car in fifteen minutes flat. Everyone was awake and SO CHATTY so we headed for home as fast as the party wagon could take us.
At home I shooed everyone into the back yard for sprinkler and baby pool fun while Amy and I sat on a bench in the shade. Absolutely perfect afternoon. The day flew by and then it was time to eat dinner. Eight people around the table! Extra hands to help with the meal! I get it now, it's not harder to have twenty kids like the Duggars, it's EASIER and MORE FUN. I just have to get Ryan on board with that plan. And get some older kids who can actually help around the house instead of spending James's bedtime cracking eggs into the sink (Wes, tonight) or making "potions" out of toothpaste (Charlie, also tonight).
We went our separate ways after dinner, but after the kids were in bed we both sneaked back out again and met two of my friends at a restaurant for drinks. We sat on an outdoor patio and talked late into the night. It was an absolutely fantastic day and Amy is welcome to come back anytime. In fact, just move in next door.

I just realized I never commented on this! And yes, Marianne, we ARE Cardinals fans!!!
It was so so so so so fun to hang out. The van ride was comical and insane and lovely all at once. The fact Wes had no shoes really didn't even make us blink and DAMN THAT ICE CREAM SANDWICH truck!
Any time you want to come to Chicago, I will return the favor. Plenty of room at Chez Snarky -- come visit any time!

In all three cultures, gardens had some religious importance. The level of significance placed on gardens as a spiritual place differs greatly between them.
The Roman society was well organized and had great appreciation for artistic form. The importance placed on artistic ability and formal influence gave way to symmetrical, manicured and aesthetically pleasing garden spaces. The lack of separation between church and state and prominence of religion in the culture meant that one of the main functions of gardens was a place of religious expression and mutual worship. Religion and art were intertwined. Gardens were a place of religious expression and activity, but by no means were they the most sacred place. The Romans viewed religion as a give and take relationship where the pious person expected something in return for worshipping the God. The church itself was obviously on a higher level, but there were a number of features indicating that gardens were a holy place to show devotion in Roman culture including shrines or aediculas, herms and statuary representation of Gods and Goddesses who were related to gardens. Venus, for example was originally a goddess of Gardens and Vineyards.
The fall of Rome then ensued and in the "Dark Ages", religion took over as the highest power in medieval culture. The church had a lot of money and thus gardens took a lot of different religious meanings based on ones relationship with the church. Society had a distinct hierarchy and the Kings and Nobles were focused on the pleasurable, relaxing and entertaining aspect of gardens. They were ornamental, produced fruits, grapes for wine, there were parks for hunting and herbers where courtly love would arise. Mazes were the main feature rooted in religion for those at the top of the pyramid. They were symbolic of that if you make good life choices you will end up with redemption. The Medieval Monastery had three types of gardens. The cloisters were purely religious while self-sufficient vegetable gardens were utilitarian. Cloisters represented the Garden in Eden and became simultaneous with Church imagery. Symbolism was pervasive: the four rivers coming from the center were a religious allegory and evergreen trees embodied eternal life. The enclosed Mary gardens were similar in that Mary symbolically became the garden. The white lilies represented purity, yellows were her glowing soul and red roses show her unconditional love and gratitude. The plebians gardens had a primarily functional purpose of growing vegetables and herbs because they could not afford to make ornamental gardens with religious significance.
After the Ottomans rampantly conquered territory and spread Islam, they established the purpose of gardens as a place that reflects Paradise, what is promised in afterlife. The Qu'ran, or religious text for Muslims even described how the garden should be formed. All Islamic gardens have a religious mission, and art and religion were almost synonymous and were essentially integrated into life. The Chahar Bagh was this layout of an earthly paradise with the quadripartite forms also seen in cloisters. They represented water, wine, milk and honey. The relationship between Christianity and Islam can be seen in gardens – both emphasized water, symmetry and enclosed spaces.

The Case of the Beautiful Begger (1965), by Erle Stanley Gardner
In the 80 or so Perry Mason novels Gardner pumped out, I don't think the formula ever varied at all. Someone would come to Mason about a legal matter of some sort. While Mason was dealing with that, someone would be murdered. Mason's client would be accused and the lawyer would have to uncover the real killer's identity to win his case.
But if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Gardner was a masterful storyteller, able to concoct infinite variations on this theme. The Mason novels are plot-driven, dialogue-heavy tales that are quick and fun to read, dripping with entertaining plot twists.
In Beautiful Begger, a young woman comes to Mason for help after her rich uncle has been declared mentally incompetent by greedy relatives. Mason, as he always does, goes all out for his client—even when his client isn't really playing ball with him.
In this case, his client's primary concern is helping her uncle. To this end, she takes it on herself to pretty much bust him out of the sanitarium in which he's been confined. This, in turn, makes Mason's job that much more difficult.
It's not long before someone turns up dead and the young lady is arrested for murder. But Mason soon comes up with a ploy (involving tampering—but not really tampering—with evidence) to trick the real killer into revealing himself.
Gee whiz, this is fun stuff. Mason is a smart, likable protagonist. There's not a lot of deep characterization here, but little touches (like Mason giving a large tip and making a special point of verbally thanking his waitress after getting good service in a restaurant) help make the various cast members seem real.
But Gardner's incredible skills at sound plot construction and basic storytelling are what really carry the novel along. Erle Stanley Gardner could not have written a boring Perry Mason novel if he tried.
Next time, we'll see what Belgium sleuth Hercule Poirot is up to in The ABC Murders.

I like this and it is very true. No matter how many obstacles we go through in life, we all get up and try again and become the best we can, no matter what.ReplyDeleteReplies
Absolutely Viv! As awful as the hard times can be, we wouldn't be the people we are without them. We can not appreciate the good times without the hard times, nor can we become strong and happy. We just have to learn how to keep going despite them, learn from them, and not lose sight of all the good that is still on offer.Delete

Our days at Gymboree
My husband and I have wanted to put our daughter Tiffany in a class that we all can learn and have fun in. We had found Gymboree Play & Music on Gymbo Buzz & found it very interesting. So we signed her up for a free class. As soon as we got to Gymboree the teachers and staff were & have been very polite and welcoming. So that day we signed her up for the Gymboree Play & Learn 4. Tiffany has learned many fun and new shapes, colors and her favorite song "They're Bubbles in the Air". She has also learned how to share and play nice with all her Gymboree friends. Tiffany is always so excited knowing she will be going to her Gymboree Play & Learn class! As first time parents, we have learned many new and different techniques every week on how to teach our daughter Tiffany. We would like to thank the teachers and staff at Gymboree of La Habra CA. We have recommended and have not stopped talking about Gymboree to all our friends and family.

Upcoming Safety Awareness Week highlights the dangers of floods
Michael W. Freeman and Clermont Forum Editor
March 11, 2014
With warm temperatures returning but not the sweltering summer heat just yet, it seems likely that for most Lake County residents, the only real weather concern these days is how often they can get outside to enjoy the picture-perfect conditions. While watching the meteorologists predict a return of the low 80s as snow continues to blanket many northern states, few area residents are likely to be worrying these days about natural disasters like a possible flood. Lake County's Emergency Management agency, though, is hoping to at least remind them that flooding, when it happens, can be catastrophic, and it's always better to be prepared for the worst.
Weather Buoys In Ocean Will Improve Forecasts
March 25, 1991
A network of 65 new weather monitoring buoys will be scattered across the Pacific Ocean over the next two years in an effort to improve weather forecasts, the government said Sunday. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said the United States, France and Japan were cooperating to place the moored buoys across thousands of miles of ocean from the Galapagos Islands to New Guinea.
Warming Oceans
April 21, 1989
A RISE in the surface temperature of the oceans of about 1 degree Fahrenheit from 1982 to 1988 is twice as much as scientists had believed was happening, says Alan Strong, oceanographer with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Strong said Thursday it is too early to say whether the warming was due to a normal but unusual variation in ocean conditions or came from a forced rise in Earth's overall temperature because of the greenhouse effect.
Top Weatherman
July 22, 1989
A FORMER professor, John A. Knauss, has been chosen to head the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, an agency he helped create in 1970. The White House told of the selection Friday, subject to Senate confirmation. Knauss, 63, is a former dean of the University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography. He will be the undersecretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere, overseeing NOAA. The agency includes the National Weather Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service.
Satellite Shuffle
January 25, 1989
THE EASTERN weather satellite that provides cloud pictures seen in newspapers and on television is being shifted westward. Its counterpart in the West died Saturday of old age. Another one is not scheduled to be launched for at least 18 months. Thomas M. Pyke Jr., head of satellite services at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, said the loss means that meteorologists will have ''only limited coverage of Atlantic and Pacific ocean areas where these severe storms originate.
Agency Launches Study Of America's Shoreline
February 14, 1998
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, troubled by declining fisheries and rampant coastal development, wants to identify the problems that afflict America's shoreline and marine ecosystems. ``There is an urgent need to nail down the causes and extent of the problems that plague our coastal areas so solutions can be found,'' NOAA Administrator D. James Baker said Friday in announcing plans for the ``State of the Coast'' study.
U.s. Government Web Site Struck By Pakistani Hackers
October 26, 2001
SAN FRANCISCO -- The U.S. government is investigating an attack on one of its Web sites in which a well-known Pakistani hacker group posted a message threatening to turn sensitive information over to the al-Qaeda organization unless the United States agreed to meet its terms. A Web server for the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration was disabled for a few hours Oct. 17 and has since been taken down.
Harris Corp.'s simulators clear milestone in $740M weather-satellite deal
By Richard Burnett, Orlando Sentinel
September 3, 2013
Harris Corp. said Tuesday it has put the finishing touches on a group of advanced weather-data simulators - the latest piece of a nearly $740 million program to help build the country's next-generation weather-satellite network. The Melbourne-based electronics and communications company said it recently delivered the computerized weather-data simulators to the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as part of a lucrative deal to produce the satellite network's ground-based communications system.
Congressional committee concerned about the state of U.S. weather forecasting
By Mark K. Matthews, Washington Bureau
May 23, 2013
WASHINGTON – With memories of Monday's deadly Oklahoma tornado still fresh, a U.S. House panel on Thursday debated the best ways to improve weather forecasting and reduce the number of weather-related deaths -- though firm answers proved elusive. "The people of Moore, Okla., received a tornado warning 16 minutes before the twister struck their town," said U.S. Rep. Chris Stewart, R-Utah, of the storm that killed 24 people. "We can do better. " Of key concern is the number of Earth-observing satellites circling the globe.
Today's Buzz:
Does record 2012 heat confirm global warming?
Orlando Sentinel Editorial Board
January 10, 2013
This week the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported that the average temperature in 2012 in the contiguous United States, which doesn't include Alaska or Hawaii, exceeded the average in 1998, the previous record year for heat, by a full degree. Last year also was the second worst year on NOAA's index of extreme weather in the United States. The year 2012 included Superstorm Sandy, which did tens of billions of dollars in damage, and a drought that struck more than half the nation.
Asian carp study grant announced
August 30, 2012
ANN ARBOR -- The University of Michigan is expected to get nearly $300,000 from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to study the possible effects of Asian carp on the Great Lakes. Democratic U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow of Michigan announced the grant funding Monday for the Ann Arbor-based school. Invasive bighead and silver carp have infested the Mississippi River and its tributaries. Government agencies have spent more than $100 million on efforts to keep them out of the Great Lakes, where scientists say they could unravel food webs by gobbling plankton on which other fish rely.
Weeki Wachee mermaids, other 'aquatic humanoids' are unreal, feds say
By Kevin P. Connolly, Orlando Sentinel
July 5, 2012
Attention Weeki Wachee fans: Federal scientists are taking aim at your favorite attraction. An arm of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently announced that mermaids are not real. "No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found," NOAA's National Ocean Service says in recent tongue-in-cheek web post . The announcement comes as Weeki Wachee Springs gears up for its 65th Anniversary Mermaid Reunion on July 14 and 15. "Special mermaid performances are planned with our current mermaids along with the former performing mermaids," the park's website says.
Funding weather satellites crucial for storm forecasting
By Marion C. Blakey | Guest columnist
June 29, 2012
Several years ago, when a senior government official was testifying before Congress in defense of weather-satellite budgets, he was stunned to be asked by a member, "Why are we building meteorological satellites when we have the Weather Channel ?" Those of us in the aerospace industry know the short answer: Without the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration , there would be no Weather Channel. The satellite imagery and data utilized by the Weather Channel and countless other reporting and predicting outlets are generated by satellites operated by NOAA and developed under the auspices of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration . In fact, more than 90 percent of all weather data generated for NOAA forecasts comes from government satellites.
Pilot Whales Beaching On North Carolina Coast
January 16, 2005
MANTEO, N.C. -- At least 22 pilot whales beached themselves on the coast early Saturday, and at least 17 of them died, officials said. The whales were stranded along a five-mile stretch of land near Oregon Inlet in the northern Outer Banks, said Laura Engleby, spokeswoman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. "We suspect there are more than 30" stranded whales, she said.
Prepare For El Nino 2001
November 21, 2000
QUITO, Ecuador -- El Nino could affect South America's Pacific coast again in 2001, an oceanographer said Monday. "There's a good chance there will be a moderate El Nino next year starting around the Northern Hemisphere's fall and going through the winter," said David Enfield of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration. El Nino can provoke drastic changes in weather, including intense downpours and a longer rainy season than usual.

Florida freeze triggers death of coral, other marine life
By Curtis Morgan, MCCLATCHY/TRIBUNE NEWS
January 29, 2010
MIAMI - Bitter cold this month may have wiped out many of the shallow water corals in the FloridaKeys. Scientists have only begun assessments, with dive teams looking for "bleaching" that is a telltale indicator of temperature stress in sensitive corals, but initial reports are bleak. Given the depth and duration of frigidweather,Meaghan Johnson, marine science coordinator for The Nature Conservancy, expected to see losses. But she was stunned by what she saw when diving a patch reef nearKey Largo.

The term "smart grid" is used more and more, but its definition is still subject to controversy since its usage covers a wide range of technical fields. In this report, Yole Développement's analysts suggest a three-layer definition for "smart grid": a software layer, a communication & sensors layer and a power layer. The report provides a global understanding of the smart grid concepts, following two main approaches:
Report Highlights
This report details how the companies envision business opportunities in the Smart Grid world and covers a broad range of their potential applications. From startups to heavyweights, companies are betting that energy management will be the next big thing. Intel, Google, Cisco & GE, for instance, are all investing in tomorrow's technologies to create the "smart grid momentum".
Market Trends
With the growing need of power consumption (from 15 400 B kWh in 2000, to 25 000 B kWh in 2015), national grids require more quality and reliability to regulate electricity flows.
This report helps to understand the overall stakes of smart grid adoption, providing an accurate time to market and player challenges to overcome.

Tidy removes whitespace from an inner tag to an outer tag.
a b
a b
after it goes through Tidy. See how the whitespace character move from inside the span to outside it and now separates the two spans. This is a problem when the spans have CSS that affects whitespace. For example, when there is the CSS white-space property set on the elements.
a b
a b
So, even if there are 30 spans in a row, since Tidy moves the whitespace, the browser can break rendering between spans. However, HTML5 parsers like Parsoid or RemexHTML will not move whitespace like this. So, there is no place for the browser to break the line since there is no whitespace between spans. This causes the row of spans to extend horizontally indefinitely.
This is most likely to affect on pages that have a list of entries. This usually comes from templates. So, editors will have to do what Tidy does by moving space around. One simple solution would be add a whitespace character after the span in the affected template like in this itwiki example which is used in w:it:Template:Campioni_NBA and which was rendering badly before this fix.

What effects will alcohol have on me if I'm taking an amoxicillin prescription?
Depends. I wish people would talk about how much of what they are drinking how often! one drink, or two, once or twice a week, will not have any impact. If you are drinking more than that, it decreases your body's ability to fight infection, and is not good for you. People who drink to excess have more infections, and more severe ones. There is no particular interaction with Amoxicillin to my knowledge.
Hmmmm? Usually Amoxicillin and alcohol would hold no major untoward effect. However, why would you mix the two? If ill, you need to be taking care of yourself, getting plenty of rest, liquids, nutriition, sleep and taking medications appropriately. Alcohol has no place here. Abstain from use until you have finished your medications and healed, then you may resume reasonable use of alcolol if at all.

Years for Dogs include… 1910, 1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018.
Positive aspects of the Dog are; magnanimous, courageous, noble, loyal, devoted, attentive, selfless, faithful, modest, altruistic, prosperous, philosophical, respectable, discreet, dutiful, lucid, intelligent. In the less positive are; disquiet, guarded, introverted, defensive, critical, pessimistic, forbidding, cynical, stubborn and moralizing.
Auspicious colours for 2018 are red, green and purple. Flowers are rose and cymbidium orchids. Numbers are 3, 4, 9 and directions of NE, E, S are auspicious.
A large component of the year will be around how we know ourselves, the opportunities we are working towards and on, as well as how this relates to how we are known.
In light of this, culinary minds may enjoy cinnamon, kelp, pepper, spirulina, citrus and stone fruit and watermelon. Other health tips for 2018 include; gentle detox with green tea, chamomile tea, honey dew melon, capsicum, sweet green chillis [not hot], granny smith apples, pink lady apples, pears, snow peas even choko. Some of you may want a picture with that. You have to wait for my recipe book for my favourites. Herbs like ginger, tumeric [heat before eating], parsley, oregano, lemon zest and aniseed.
Industry for the Earth Dog 2018 include; Police, Politician, Interior Designer, Scientist, Professor, Priest, Nurse, Clerk and Judge. Famous Dog's are the likes of Elvis, Bill Clinton, Justin Bieber, Mother Teresa, Madonna and Churchill.
Inclusively speaking as we step into 2018, there is an overall theme of moving forward, in line with what is right. As a people, there are many more of us awake and consciously engaging in having a safe and positive community, for us right now as well as for the generations to follow. There is a large group of us now wanting to be able to pass the torch having made progress in stability, sustainability, respect for nature and to be able to not just pass on a mess to be cleaned up by whoever comes after and whoever can summon the courage. We want to pass on a flourishing foundation for health and prosperity. However to do this, we have some work to continue, some neighbours to assist in waking and some to heal. Sharing our stories is going to be the torchlight for the next 6-8 years, this will include adapting the language as we move forward to show that it is possible to heal and to move into thriving, as individuals and as a community.
This balance that we work to right, will leave some invigorated and others will have fatigue to navigate. Turning towards a more natural and simplified lifestyle will support all here. The more you can be aligned with this the better. This will also feed our communication and clarity. We will rely more and more on our own centre for protection, understanding and release the desire to be lead, in some instances blindly and begin the real transition into our modernisation. This is the true deconstruction of known securities. What was is definitely is no longer.
Governance and Finance.
Takes a turn building on the events we have seen in the end of 2017. Britain clashes with the Middle East as it ventures into sharing its opinions with the assumption that it still holds its old glory. China ceases to be a small player in the minds of a global mindset that has been in play since the last official dynasty, the Qing dynasty ending in 1912. This community has had a long preparation and can work together with much more cohesion than many others. It also has a much longer future in its eye.
The U.S, Russia and North Korea, continue to play absurd violent games to prove who is the biggest kid in the yard, as part of the deconstruction of an old guard. Russia will have more moments of truth in declaring more tidbits of the hidden realities that governments have been using and for how long, with great detail. This will also be an attempt to save grace and the illusion of power. These three are in line for the largest chunk of dismantling, while the assumption of the peoples support is nowhere to be seen. Putin may not be a shoe in for the next election, however manipulation on a large scale is not over yet. There will be 1 or 2 real contenders from the oligarchs that will gain support keeping us on our toes.
Australia comes more to its senses in a coming of age with the addressing of being happy as a part of South East Asia, and recognising our true place in the scheme of things. This will adjust our U.S. alliances, impacting trade and giving birth to new industry and manufacturing here. Uzbekistan will be a major stake holder in new alliances with its neighbours in efforts to rebuild and create supply for its workforce, complimenting with local trade with specific interest around textiles, gold and copper. This will be further highlighted with a gold shortage in the market as borders and positions are drawn. The great new spark of Bitcoin, will be in flux as larger entities with vested interests will use more egregious tactics to falsify the market. Though at this point it will do little to stop the change in perception of new currency, as well as the introduction of other peer to peer finance systems. This is beginning now with some of the larger banks working on peer to peer systems, however the impact they are hoping for of a take over of this sector is highly unlikely to succeed. It will be the deconstruction of the mindset; if we can't take it over, we'll destroy and destabilise its credibility. The balance is already moving.
Tunisia will also come into the spotlight with creative resolution for production and market placement particularly with textiles. Art and Culture will also grow. South America will have major upheaval with crime and violent crime within its borders and desperation will create large disruption incidents. Outcry's for assistance will be heard and add to the change of global currency and trade. Terms will shift.
Be gracious as you enter the age that includes the nurturer and truth of the Wise Woman. More of the right action and words to match are the part of this movement. Although it is also a call to balance for Men and Women. It is a reckoning of the balance for the legacy we pass down to our children and communities. We will navigate the landscape of inclusion, honesty and recognition of value.
This also encompasses how we relate and this includes our inner dialogue, as in how do we relate to ourselves? Does your conditioning dominate and leave you feeling at the mercy of all? Does the negative and disparaging voice continue even when you are operating as though it is silent? Do your outer relationships mirror aspects within? Delving in here is a very pertinent part of the coming year, how are we treating ourselves and others? As a being of energy, are you creating a bearing of playfulness and curiosity? Our relationships in the coming year will challenge the notion of how you operate within and without in regards to your stories and the stories of others.
Jealousy, envy and resentment will come spilling into the fray for your consideration, to bring a centre of truth. Prepare to be revealed. This is a liberation of the soul and magic of all of us. Timing will not be your call, treatment of the situations will determine the acceptance or calling out you receive. Growing in grace is the longer agenda in the year of the Earth Dog, getting or being grounded is the play book. Consider what you are putting out to the world at large and understand to the core of your being that it will return in kind. Compassion will be a challenge to get to and resentment will foster a perception that its to hard, to mean and uncaring. I urge you to continue forward, be gentle, be brave and take each moment with as much kindness and composure as you can muster. Try to, in the moment, listen and pause your reaction, breath and allow your response.
Career / Vocation.
Remember to count your blessings. Fulfilment of contracts and terms will go back to an understanding of being the 'norm'. Adaption is also the name of this game, this includes the balancing of smaller business with conglomerates and corporations. People will be looking to go local and national with a clearer understanding of what this means for the community and how it bolsters not only the economy but also the morale of neighbourhoods. More care will be taken to build relationships as the awareness shifts from churn and burn to long standing relationships.
Home and Familia.
Communication is key as is being present. Excuses will be called out as just that and don't ask if your not willing to here yes or no. Hypocrisy will be the villain and age will not save you. Consider… Your ideal scenario and take the time to walk towards it as you hold hands and support each other to individual and group goals. More conversation, more listening. Gatherings and appreciation of precious time come to bear as we navigate what we value, how to appreciate it and the sharing of each other with care, love and the respect of equals.
The component of release is well served by decluttering in 2018. Remember to place items at the door so you action removing them to find a new home or give them as donations. Shelters often need items for people in their care.
Grow, build, include is the motto here. The bigger picture is at play, consider a plan that after it covers what you want/desire, enables paying it forward and the benefits of others that you may not see or receive credit for directly. Let it out to flow forward and encompass others, grow the love base in your community, actively. Keep in your mindfulness that any fear or anxiety over how will it help me is an old pattern. Actively cultivate the mindset that if your neighbours are better accepted, cared for, supported, then as a part of the community so are you. It may not be you today who needs support, but as for tomorrow or another you care for directly, to know these aspects are continuing to grow and flourish is a calming and soothing acceptance. It bodes well for all of us. As Oprah says, 'I come as one, but I stand as 10 000'.
Activities that ground and relax while adding to fitness are of use particularly as stamina and fatigue will be at an all time high. Issues of the heart, small intestine, eyes and kidneys will play a large part. Blood health and cleansing as well as sexual health will be a large constituent for our communal well being.
The call of better care starts with the self to create and maintain a reserve for the overflow to be shared with others. This applies with health, our first wealth. Think of a vegetable garden, healthy, thriving, when we eat from this our bodies responds in kind. If there is abundance, when we have more than is needed, there is comfortable enough to share and they can respond in kind in the body and in return to you. It is a cycle that keeps giving. Health for 2018 is about continuing a cycle that keeps giving.
When eating or choosing foods, consider will this keep giving? It is not enough to fill the body, we need to fuel. The cleaner the fuel, the cleaner and better quality the energy. There fore aspects to add in your lifestyle are seasonal eating, clean water, much less artificial and over processed food sources. Raw food is also an addition to be increased. Generally speaking 80% of our diets serve us when raw. Food portions are also a consideration, as is listening to the body and hearing what it is asking for. This is a support for detox, repair and longevity.
I would also add, as fatigue is a factor next year, find your self a good practitioner, be it massage, acupuncture or healer. They will intrinsically add to your efforts and help build a better you, more present body, mind and spirit. Please also remember the wisdom of rest and disconnection to regain your sense of self. 2018 is also the contemplation and engagement of your holistic approach to health, the question is how do you care for your self. Start here and incorporate better care of you each day, be it food, relaxation, fitness and rest.
General Acknowledgments.
2018 is about how we befriend ourselves and others, the differences in how we live, express ourselves and how we accept. Our love base. Whether it is free flowing or stilted and in a state of imbalance, the outcomes this creates and how we navigate and survive them. Our differences are not going away, they are growing and this is a cornerstone for our year of the Earth Dog.
I urge you not give up or give in. Deepen your awareness, your understanding and your acceptance of those not like yourself. Because in the long run, this is actually what makes us all alike. Change is our only real constant, even as individuals we evolve, circumstances pivot us around who we think we are, who we project ourselves to be, its all a story. Next year engages and challenges us directly around this. Acknowledge that when I discuss these aspects I don't see them as negative or necessarily as easy, I see them as opportunities.
Opportunities to connect with co creative change, to embrace the joy of who we truly are, separate and together, its all the same. The ability to thrive and own who we are, to activate success, contentment, pleasure and peace in our bearing is and always has been to go through. There is no need for avoidance, step forward and address where and what you are. Ownership is the way to thriving, those in the 1% already know this.
As always I wish you every health, happiness and prosperity for 2018. Should you desire being present and pro active, make a booking. We support our Clients to thrive into success.
Much love, R x.

IIA president calls for better risk management
The new president of the Institute of Internal Auditors has called on company boards to manage their business risks better in the wake of corporate disasters.
Link: WorldCom: Internal auditors want major overhaul
In particurlar Richard Nelson said recent accounting scandals had shown the need for 'an effective, high profile internal audit operation to provide [non-executive directors] with the assurance they need'.
He added that internal auditors could add 'true value to any organisation'.
Making these comments in his inaugural address Nelson said he aimed to accelerate the IIA's expansion during his presidential year and would ensure that education and training provided by the institute would 'raise awareness of internal auditing as a vital service to senior executives'.

Merrill Lynch warns of more sub-prime hits
Merrill Lynch takes $7.9bn sub-prime hit and warns that worst is to come
Merrill Lynch takes $7.9bn sub-prime hit and warns that worst is to come
US investment bank Merrill Lynch yesterday revealed that it had taken a
$7.9bn (£3.5bn) hit from its exposure to sub-prime mortgages and warned that
further bad news could be around the corner.
The bank said it had taken a conservative view in its valuations, but said
that because valuations in a frozen market were so difficult to calculate,
further hits down the line were a possibility.
Accounting rules allow banks to mark sub-prime instruments to model in a
frozen market, but such modelling is notoriously complicated and open to error.
US investment banks have taken billions of dollars in write-downs from
sub-prime exposures.
