Been great to read some of your posts and I feel like I may be repeating some of them in mine, but I need to speak from me in hopes of hearing some information that will fill some missing pieces.
I've always understood people...been able to read them and know what makes them work. The more I get myself and learnt how I worked the more other people became like systems to me. Each one has a unique soul operating it but they are all working off of the same blueprint. This allowed me to connect with them, I've had some really tough experiences and through those I can relate to almost anyone suffering. I've suffered with depression before and still struggle with insomnia and anxiety, the problem I have is that I'm very open to learning and progressing myself but the more I do the more I see the blindness and ignorance of so many others. I have worked with spirit before and sat in circle, but I went along to observe, I was encouraged to go up and give some other people in the circle some messages so I did (feeling crazy) and always managed to get things through, everyone was really excited about me doing it but to me it felt superficial. I didn't want it to be a performance and a part of me didn't trust myself. I have two sides of me - the harsh one and the emotional one. Which thanks to a post on here someone else mentioned it being normal. I can feel truth and I can only speak truth. I know things before they happen and I feel who people are. Sadly people have become tediously predictable, I feel flooded with people who obsess over themselves, who lie to themselves and others, who ignore any responsibility over themselves and I'm losing compassion fast. I still see so much good in people but I find it easier to do this with strangers than my friends. I know I'm connected, I've always felt it and animals and children always connect with me and people always feel safe around me to turn to. I'm just worried that I'm becoming resentful or tired of people and I don't know how to change it but I'm scared of what I'm letting it do to me. I don't want to dismiss people around me that are in their own holes. I guess the hardest thing I struggle with is believing I'm an empath - please understand I say this next bit from the harsh left side of me but I wonder if it's just a self obsessed desire in me to be unique or different to others, is it really about being tuned in to something others aren't or is it just that I need to be better than others to feel of value? I feel like I need to work out the system of an empath which is crazy right because that's about my own need of control, but I can't fully grasp it and understand it so I feel lost in it. I hope this makes sense to you how it does to me and I'm so sorry for a long post, I've been searching for somewhere to speak for so long and coming across this forum has been so helpful.

I think what you are seeking is feeling your own individuality. Most Empath's has a clear or crystal soul, which turns us into chameleons. We channel other people's energy and in a sense become a part of that energy and that energy becomes a part of us. We also spend so much time helping and connecting to other people and often push away time to get to know ourselves. I think this contributes to that feeling you are having. Basically, you've become so many different people, but all you want is to just be you. But who are you?
Now is the time to get to know you. I would get a journal and start writing...about anything really. Your hopes, your dreams, your anger, your spirituality, your job, who you would like to be, what do you like to do? If you look at the journal as e-mails to a stranger, these are some of the questions you may ask them, and you can come up with some of your own. Take some away in the quiet somewhere, somewhere you feel some peace and quiet and start with some basic questions like the one's above. These questions will start generating other questions and will help you go deeper within yourself. This journey in life is about self discovery and you've been so busy discovering everyone else, it's now time to discover you. I wish I could be bigger help but this journey must be traveled alone. You can post questions, get ideas and generate idea's, but this is your time to discover who you are, not only as an Empath, but as a beautiful individual soul. Just as you build a relationship with a new friend or date, treat yourself with the same openness, respect and intention. You can also ask your angels and spirit guides to help you. I wish you many blessings on your path.

Wow, lots you are saying and asking. Is not so easy to get to in clear terms sometimes.
I am sorry that you have had experiences that have you in any way more cynical. If around people who only blame and take absolutely no responsibility for their own actions, it can be draining and the empathy for them can be shaken. There are legitimately times when others do make a terrible difference in how we act and legitimately so. Then it is our responsibility to get better influences. For those who do not even assume that responsibility it can get tiring. If that not as empathic part of you comes forward the more you are around hostility or people who drain you, maybe it is called safety. We all need that at times. Some people are unsafe temporarily and they will try to understand your need for safety if you ever explain it to them. Those who won't may not be in that temporarily unsafe category but maybe there pretty often maybe?
If people have become predictable to you, are you around many who can really flow with their feelings much? In that i don't mean impulse ridden people who do things that are flagrantly inconsiderate and often painful to others. I mean those who have both impulse control yet enough feelings to not be too robotic with everything (have their feelings with them) may have some spontaneity? Not sure if getting at all to what you mean by people being predictable or not. For me, i have known the impulsive people harmful yet predictable. The truly spontaneous yet considerate ones who are not so predictable and that being a good thing, i haven't known enough to be honest. I hope you get to know people who surprise you in good ways. If it is more that they lie to themselves and others and that itself is too predictable, i hope you get to know more who at least will try. Many don't want to face themselves or uncomfortable old feelings they need to face to change and they act by formula through much of life. If that is more what you mean, good luck finding those who try to listen to that which is around and that which is inside. We all flub at times on being fully honest with ourselves, but some are much better than others at hearing and taking it to heart when approached with the right care and honesty.
For that sitting in a circle and finding some of it superficial, things being too ritualized can get pretty cognitive and that can be when some think they are in touch with something whereas they are putting themselves into some state where they are battering any true empathy down. It's too much that California guru thing or so i call it. That you have suffered and have your own feelings is more important than any ritual. Ritual and empathy are pretty opposite aren't they? Having some guru or group tell you how to do it isn't as much as first of all you having you and your feelings. So on what you said about that, yeah get you on that i think. Maybe groups can do things where the group can strengthen empathy, yet i wonder if it would be by letting ritual go and letting feelings flow. Does that sound too hippie? Sorry if so. Hmm, putting that in other terms. If you planned a smile, is it the same as a spontaneous one? How can you "plan" empathy? Empathy is a reaction, not a plan.
Good luck with answers, both intellectual and emotional ones. And good luck with finding people who can sometimes surprise you maybe not with the big stuff, but are heartfelt enough that you may not be able to predict where it goes as much as that it will usually go well.
@timchavez love is the key is my new mantra! Thank you!
@raindancer thank you so much, nothing sounds too hippie at all! I do need better influencers but most of all I need to learn to let go and be around others who do the same, let things flow instead of pushing or dictating. This is actually so interesting because I can hold on to things and I feel crushed when others try to push me in a certain way too.
Thank you so much everyone for helping me on this post. I know it was a long one but sometimes getting it out inspires you in great ways. So happy to have found this forum and if any of you ever want to unload to me I will always take the time to read and listen! Your support and kind words mean a great deal! X

To those arguing for Rome, I add that the Later Empire still has an enormous influence in Eastern Europe: religious practices, the use of the Julian Calender, legal systems etc.
I add that we in the west are still largely 'Rome', for it never 'fell', it merely evolved.

There was a series called Empires that devoted an entire chapter just to Martin Luther who effectively started the religious reformation by emphasizing the individual over the institution. In fact, his attacks on the corruption of the Catholic hierarchy may have been pivotal to the development of western civilizations.
PBS - Empires Series
Martin Luther | PBS
Few if any men have changed the course of history like Martin Luther. In less than ten years, this fevered German monk plunged a knife into the heart of an empire that had ruled for a thousand years, and set in motion a train of revolution, war and conflict that would reshape Western civilization, and lift it out of the Dark Ages.
Luther's is a drama that still resonates half a millennium on. It's an epic tale that stretches from the gilded corridors of the Vatican to the weathered church door of a small South German town; from the barbarous pyres of heretics to the technological triumph of printing. It is the story of the birth of the modern age, of the collapse of medieval feudalism, and the first shaping of ideals of freedom and liberty that lie at the heart of the 21st century.

Ottoman Empire (1299 to 1922)
Capitol: Istanbul.
Population: 35,350,000 (1856)
Area: 5,200,000 km2
The Ottoman Empire can undoubtedly be called the greatest Muslim empire of all time because it stayed on the face of the globe for nearly 700 years. The empire was one of the largest and the longest ruling empire in history. During the 16th and 17th century the empire became the most powerful state of the world.
The first Ottomans were Turkish soldiers known as ghaziz. They had come to Anatolia with other Turks to escape the Mongols. In late 1200 a ghazi leader named Osman had great success in fighting the Byzantines. His tribe members became known as the Ottoman.

Comparing Fractions Using LCM
Try This Out!
Peter walked 3/4 of a mile and Brandon walked 1/4 of a mile. Which boy walked the farthest?
How do you know?
How would you write the answer using <, =, and >?
Moving On Up
Yesterday, we practiced finding the least common multiple of a set of numbers. Now we are going to take that knowledge and apply it to fractions! We'll be finding the Least Common Denominator (LCD).
Try This at Your Table
Alan spent 2/5 of the weekend playing video games. Christina spent 1/3 of the weekend playing video games. Who spent more time playing video games?
Step 1: Find the LCM of the
denominators (LCD)
Step 2: Make an equivalent fraction for 2/5 and 1/3 with the LCM as the denominator for both.
2/5 becomes...
1/3 becomes...
Step 3: Answer the question, use <, =, or >.
Who spent more time playing video games?
Compare these fractions using <, =, and >. SHOW ALL THE STEPS!
1. 4/5 and 3/4
2. 7/10 and 5/6
3. 9/12, 5/8, and 1/2
4. Miguel read 2/3 of the books in his library, and Jhakya read 7/9 of the books in her library. If their libraries are the same size, which person read more books? SHOW YOUR WORK!
How About This?
Amber ate 3/4 of a pie, and Amyah ate 2/3 of a pie. If both pies are the same size, which girl ate more pie?
Note: these fractions have
denominators, so it is more difficult to compare them. If both had a common, or
denominator, we could compare them as easily as we did with the walking example.
Let's Try It
To solve the 'pie' problem, we need to compare 3/4 and 2/3 using <, =, or >.
Step 1: Find the LCM of the
4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21
The LCM is:
Comparing 3/4 and 2/3
Step 2: Make an equivalent fraction for 3/4 and for 2/3 using your LCM as the new denominator for both (Least Common Denominator).
3/4 /12
2/3 /12
What did you get?
So which girl ate more?
How would you write that,
using <, =, or >?
I will be able to compare fractions
(<, =, or >) using the
Least Common Multiple (LCM).
Another Example!
Peanut Butter, try this one (Jelly coaches):
Compare 7/8 and 5/6
Jelly, try this one (Peanut Butter coaches):
Compare 3/4 and 5/7
If finished early
work on this problem:
Vincent watched 9/10 of a movie, and Jacky watched 12/15 of a movie. If the movies were the same length, who watched the most? Show your work!
Warm Up!
On your whiteboards:
Make an equivalent fraction:
3/4 /8
4/5 12/
Find the least common multiple:
3 and 8
5 and 6
Independent Practice
Compare these fractions using <, =, or >. DO BOTH SETS!
is your favorite season, start with this set of problems:
4/5 and 11/15 8/9 and 4/6 9/12 and 3/4
If summer is
your favorite season, start with this set of problems:
6/7 and 12/14 5/6 and 3/4 1/2 and 5/9
EVERYONE try these examples!
1/2, 3/4, and 2/3 1/3, 1/4, and 2/5

"I had an intern a couple of jobs ago who told us on his first day that he was psychic and could predict our requests, and then he made us sit down to listen to his divination podcast."
"I had an intern request a meeting, and they had a prepared a long list of complaints and grievances.
"I understand that sometimes things do not work out exactly as you expect. But this is the worst way to handle it. If you are struggling early on, go to your manager with a list of questions, not complaints. It is way too early to become a problem employee. And looking for the problems will only keep you from seeing the opportunities."
"I once worked at a magazine where another intern committed a cardinal sin of journalism: She didn't understand the difference between transcribing an interview and paraphrasing it. Her script butchered the source's quotes and nearly got the writer in loads of trouble. So, whether you work in media, finance, or law, you may be asked to transcribe something someday. Ask how the person likes it prepared."
Not taking initiative
"The biggest mistake interns make is not taking initiative. Some interns treat the fact that they're an intern as permission to sit back and wait for things to happen — like in grade school, when our only job as students was to sit and be taught.
"One of the things I love about Business Insider is that we're encouraged to make our careers. Interns should embrace that ideal and be proactive every day."
Using the office as a crash pad
"The biggest mistake I saw was an intern sleeping at the office overnight. They went out and got drunk and then came back to the office, maybe to pick up their things, and ended up falling asleep drunk on the couch in the reception area. Someone who had the night shift saw them, took a photo, and sent it to me.
"We spoke to the intern later and explained that the office is not a place to bunk at night or on weekends, and it's especially never a good idea to come back to the office after a night of drinking, because what good can come of that?"
Not understanding boundaries
"I had an intern at my old job who seemed totally normal and competent enough in her interview but ended up being the actual worst. Not only was she rude a lot of the time — thinking that standard intern tasks, like producing articles in our CMS and writing out product credits, were beneath her. She once went over my and my coworkers' head and emailed the CEO about some ideas she had for the company. She had no sense of boundaries and displayed very little respect for her managers."
Leaving for another internship
"I once had an intern who quit a month into the internship to take another internship. So basically I spent many hours training her, checking in with her, making sure she was doing things she was interested in — and then she left us high and dry, having to look for a new intern in the middle of the season. This is a great way to irreparably burn a bridge, something that should be avoided, especially at the beginning of your career."
Working for free
"I'd say one big mistake that I made once back in my interning days was taking an unpaid internship.
"I thought it would be fine since I was supporting myself with another job working in restaurants and gaining experience for a career change. It started out great, but at one point during that time I had a health issue and was barely able to report to the job that paid my rent and expenses. (I was uninsured at the time, too. This was before people could stay on their parents' insurance until they were 26.) I had to bail on my unpaid gig since it just didn't make sense to keep spending all that time and energy working for free.
"They were OK with it, and probably would have given me follow-up recommendations if I'd asked, but I ended up resenting the experience because I felt like my work had been exploited, so I never asked. I later found another gig that didn't pay a lot, but still something, which meant I could at least cut back a few work hours elsewhere.
"It's a mistake to let your work be undervalued."

Zeenews Bureau
New Delhi: Archaeologists have discovered two suspected Egyptian pyramids and spotted more than 1,000 tombs and 3,000 ancient settlements by using infra-red imaging which revealed the underground buildings.
Dr Sarah Parcak and her team pioneered the work in space archaeology from a NASA-sponsored laboratory in Birmingham , Alabama. The team analyzed images obtained from satellites orbiting 700km above the earth, equipped with powerful cameras that can pin-point objects less than 1m in diameter on the earth`s surface.
The images also revealed that ancient Egyptians built their houses and structures out of mud brick, which is much denser than the soil that surrounds it.
In the documentary `Egypt`s Lost Cities`, the team visited an area of Saqqara (Sakkara),which is believed to be one of the most important archaeological sites in Egypt.
They excavated a 3,000 year old house the image of which was obtained through the satellite imagery. The structure of the house shown in the satellite imagery almost perfectly matched with the one they excavated, validating their findings using infra-red imaging technology.

This is the second part of an ongoing series about the hapless white dude city council candidates of Ward 10. Read Part I here.
A guy named David Schorn has entered the race for the Ward 10 City Council seat currently held by Lisa Bender. Schorn is the second candidate to announce a challenge to Bender.
Here are some quick facts about David Schorn that you can pick up from his campaign Facebook page. First, he doesn't know where Ward 10 is. He thinks the Lyndale neighborhood is in Ward 10 (close, but it's actually next door in Ward 8). Geography isn't his strong suit, but he is able to list wrestling, football, tennis, running, swimming, and weight training on his candidate resume.
Schorn was elected to the neighborhood association board (LHENA) on April 19th. He started campaigning for City Council on April 24th on nextdoor.com. The problem is LHENA bylaws prohibit candidates for office from sitting on the board (he still hasn't resigned). This has led some observers to say that David Schorn is bad at planning for the immediate future.
David Schorn is also badly misinformed about Wedge neighborhood controversies involving the local developers known as "The Turkey Guys." First, some things you need to know about the Turkey Guys: 1) they made lots of money selling turkey sandwiches at the state fair; 2) they own and build rental housing in the neighborhood, such as the world famous Rocket House; and 3) they are the subject of controversy among a special contingent of concerned residents (not for their sandwiches, but for their houses).
I suspect that new candidate David Schorn (who seems like he's only just begun to grapple with many issues) has recently been exposed to a lot of turkey talk: as in, Turkey Guys did this and Turkey Guys did that. This may have caused Schorn some confusion. As you can see in this exclusive screenshot obtained by Wedge LIVE, David Schorn thinks the Turkey Guys are from Turkey the country, instead of Turkey-To-Go, the booth at the state fair.
|Private Facebook reply from Schorn campaign page.
|Turkey the sandwich, not Turkey the country
Schorn also has some terrible policy ideas. He would like to solve our housing affordability crisis (which is driven largely by a housing shortage) by stopping housing from being built. And what does the slogan "Parking and Traffic Solutions" mean? Not even David Schorn can tell you. These aren't really policy ideas so much as local issue buzzwords combined into a terrible acronym on his campaign's dasharez0ne-style Facebook header.
Someone pointed out to me that David Schorn is the @dasharez0ne candidate. #daSchornz0ne pic.twitter.com/yjbjIifMNh— Wedge LIVE! (@WedgeLIVE) June 14, 2017
|David Schorn is a "low vacancy rate" denier.
Also troubling, considering Schorn's slogan is "Listening to Neighbors," is his disregard for the rules of the neighborhood electoral process. In a story you'll only see reported on Wedge LIVE, David Schorn cast an illegal vote at a CARAG meeting last night. Schorn is not a resident of the CARAG neighborhood and is therefore ineligible to vote at CARAG meetings.
And let's not forget there is a second Not Lisa Bender candidate in Ward 10 named Scott Fine, who announced his campaign in February. Fine is a web developer with no candidate website, no obvious signs of an active campaign, and he can no longer be reached by phone. Neither Schorn nor Fine have yet registered a campaign committee with Hennepin County; until they do so, both candidates are prohibited from spending or raising more than $100 on their pretend campaigns.

Sandra Kay Teall, 63 passed away Saturday September 30, 2017 at Hospice of North Idaho's Schneidmiller House. She spent nearly a year in darkness but has been released from the pain and darkness into the glorious light of Heaven.
Sandi was born February 27, 1954 to Howard and Ruth Fiedler in Spokane, Washington. She enjoyed the freedoms of growing up in Priest River, Idaho. She graduated from Priest River Lamanna High School in 1972.
She met Mike Teall in 1971 when he returned from Vietnam and she was caring for his brother and sister. It was love and they were married on August 12, 1972. Within a week they moved to Coeur d'Alene where Sandi began attending North Idaho College's nursing program. She completed the program in 1973 and became an LPN.
Sandi began work at Kootenai Medical Center where she excelled as a nurse in the Emergency Room. She thrived on the action and being able to help the people who came under her care in the most chaotic moments of their lives. After many years at the ER she moved on to help start up North Idaho Immediate Care Center with Dr. Jack Riggs. She was instrumental in its success because they were such a great team. She worked there until the company was absorbed into Kootenai Health. Sandi found herself once again employed by Kootenai. Her final position was as office manager for the Kootenai Clinic Family Medicine Post Falls office working with Drs. Stenhouse and Lindblad.
In 1977 and 1978 Sandi's true joy came in the form of her children, Teiko Danielle Teall and Eric Michael Teall. Only to be surpassed by the joy of grandchildren, Cooper, Lucas, Caden and Landon. But being Mom and Nana didn't stop there, she gathered more children to love, Sara Sweet and her daughter Mikayla and then more when Sara married Paul and their twins Colson and Carter came along.
Sandi will be remembered most for her heart. She was the kindest person and it was apparent to everyone who crossed paths with her. Even people on the street were drawn to her. You could always see her good spirit and grace shining through, along with a mad sense of humor. She had the best laugh!
Sandi was preceded in death by her father Howard Fiedler and her mother Ruth Fiedler.
She is survived by her husband Mike Teall of Post Falls, her children Teiko Szasz and her fiancé Gerardo Villegas of Boardman Oregon, Eric Teall and his wife Connie of Coeur d'Alene, Sara White and her husband Paul of Rathdrum; grandchildren Cooper, Lucas, Caden, and Landon Szasz, Mikayla, Colson, and Carter White, David and Bryan Hawkins, Alexis, Tony and Sophia Villegas; her brother Jim Fiedler and his wife Mechele; and niece Amber Fiedler. She also had one grandchild on the way that she did not have the chance to meet, or just maybe in that instant her spirit got to introduce itself on its way to Heaven.
No services will be held per Sandi's wishes. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Hospice of North Idaho. A celebration of life will take place at a later date.

More than 2,000 years ago, merchants laden with silk, ivory and later gunpowder, had only three main trading routes linking China to the West. Caravans travelled to today's Middle East region via Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey. The roads weaving through dangerous mountain ranges and desolate desert regions became known as the Silk Road.
More than commodities though, the Silk Road brought Buddhism and Islam east, leaving new legacies of art and culture in China.
When Genghis Khan led the nomadic Mongols to victory in much of Asia, the Silk Road became the path of communication between the empire's cultures. Traders of different nationalities and religions, including Jews, Muslims and Christians, settled in northern China.
This is where I went in late September. On a breakneck 14-day tour tracing the northern Silk Road backwards, I was transported to a movie-set world of ruined cities, blazing desert oasis, dusty markets and breathtaking 1,500-year-old Buddhist art.
The northern provinces of Xinjiang and Gansu offered pictures of China I never knew existed. Rocky cliffs grander than the Grand Canyon, mountain lakes bluer than Lake Louise, and faces traced with more history than I could ever learn.
We joked that we were paying homage to Indiana Jones, travelling by plane, train, bus, dragon boat, speedboat, gondola, donkey cart, golf cart and camel.
Of course, there was the food: whole-roasted lamb, braised pork hock, camel hoof tendons, freshly made lai-mein (stretched noodles), goat head and intestine soup, desert oasis grapes, hami melon, and deep-fried snake. We tried it all.
I have pictures and in time, I'll have the stories here. Please visit again soon.

ITN Architects was challenged to redesign this an old 1880's Victorian brick house in an old suburb of Melbourne, Australia. The old front part was redesigned to creates about contemporary residential building, including new bathrooms and side windows. Some of the old fruit trees were retained and landscaped around with grass to suit the new backyard layout.
The Austral bricks from the La Paloma were used to design an external bricks in a white "Miro" colour principally to match the existing rendered brick house which is painted off white, and to keep the new work light and clean and to set it off against the green grass.
The new building at the rear of this Melbourne Victorian brick house consists mainly of one large L shaped open plan kitchen, living and dining area with large glass doors across the rear verandah porch, as well as other utilitarian rooms.
The interiors are largely subdued and done in a simple natural white palette, set off with a plain grey concrete credenza, honey coloured timbers and a smoky grey tint mirror splashback. Suspended pendant concrete light fittings also add to the mix. the architects said.

In this video from KCPT, watch an animated demonstration of rotating and dilating a triangle on the coordinate plane. In the accompanying classroom activity, students watch the video; draw rotations and dilations of a triangle; and identify center of rotation, angle of rotation, and scale factors in classmates drawings. To get the most from the lesson, students should be comfortable graphing points on the coordinate plane and reproducing a drawing of a geometric shape at a different scale. Prior exposure to rotation and dilation is helpful.

Tasteful Ways To Protect Precious Male Gland
Are you making the right choices to protect your prostate? More men get prostate cancer than all other forms of cancer combined. So as a man, you want to take care of your prostate. You want to help it to remain healthy and cancer free. Are there any foods that you can eat (or not eat) to improve your prostate health? You bet there are. Today we're going to take a look.
The media, public health organizations, and tons of websites are quick to offer you advice. But most of it is sloppy and poorly researched. Some of the advice is just plain wrong. Some of it is so wrong that it can actually increase your risk if you made the mistake of following it. In today's article we're going to set the record straight. I'm going to tell you what real science has to say about what foods do and do not alter your risk of developing prostate cancer.
The Red Meat Scare
For years now public health organizations have been down on red meat. That despite the fact that real research shows that red meat is actually healthy for us. So it should come as no surprise when a few years ago the media and public health organizations began to warn us that red meat causes prostate cancer.
The study involved was a large scale project in California. And the results reported by the researchers couldn't be more different than what the media reported. The researchers actually found that men who eat meat, including red meat, are at lower risk for developing cancer than men who do not eat meat.
There was one caveat, however. What the study found was that white (including HIspanic) men (but not other groups) are at a higher risk for developing prostate cancer when they eat a lot of red meat that has been cooked at very high temperatures. In particular they found that pan-fried red meat and charred red meat could significantly increase white men's risk.
But there was absolutely no increase in risk for red meat cooked any other way. And suggesting that men should eliminate red meat from their diets could prove to be unwise. Here's why. Red meat is one of the few commonly-available foods that supplies ample amounts of some nutrients that we men need for health.
Other than oysters, red meat is the very best source of zinc. Zinc is especially important for men. It helps our immune systems, protects our testicles, supports testosterone production, and it protects the prostate. Red meat is also an excellent source of selenium, which is also particularly important for men's health including prostate health. It also supplies plenty of coenzyme Q10, which is proven to be important for heart health and energy production. It's one of the very best sources of B vitamins. And recent studies have proven that the fats in red meat are uniquely anti-inflammatory and protective of health, including the prostate.
Of course that doesn't mean that you should scarf down a 20 ounce steak at each meal just because now you've been told that red meat is healthy. Like all healthy things, it is best in moderation. Eat some red meat a few times per week cooked at low temperatures. And if you want to indulge in a grilled steak or a pan-fried burger every once in a while, that's fine too. The danger is only for white men who eat high-temperature cooked red meat frequently
Incidentally, that same study found that poultry and homemade gravy both significantly decreased the risk of developing prostate cancer in all men. So along with red meat a few times per week, you can also enjoy chicken, turkey, and homemade gravy and know that you are doing a good thing for your health.
Does Dairy Really Cause Prostate Cancer?
A lot of doctors and organizations advise men to cut down on dairy because they are under the mistaken belief that dairy causes prostate cancer. And, in a sense, they are right. But you may recall from a recent article that it is only low fat dairy that is implicated. Studies have found a mild connection between low fat dairy consumption and prostate cancer.
However, full fat dairy does not have that association. In fact, full fat dairy actually lowers the risk of prostate cancer (and all kinds of cancer). So if you want to keep your prostate healthy, don't skip the dairy. Instead, reach for the full fat dairy. It's better for you and tastier too. That includes whole milk, whole milk cheeses, whole milk yogurt, cream, and butter.
Will Soy Protect Your Prostate?
Another popular piece of advice you're likely to come across is to increase your intake of soy. This advice is based on some questionable evidence that men who eat soy may experience a slower progression of existing prostate tumors. But even researchers have cautioned that the evidence for soy is "highly biased". In other words, it may not be good science.
Even if soy might slow the progression of the first instance of prostate cancer, it may still be bad news. Research shows that if a man survives the first bout of prostate cancer, eating soy won't protect him from a recurrence. And, in fact, it may make a recurrence even more aggressive.
Even if soy may slow the progression of the first bout of prostate cancer, it does so by feminizing men. Even the FDA reports that soy has a feminizing effect by altering estrogen receptors. And studies have shown that men who eat soy have significant increases in substances that are linked to bladder, colorectal, and prostate cancers as well as cardiovascular disease.
I don't recommend eating more soy. It's not a good bet.
Eat Your Fruits And Vegetables
There's one thing that we can all agree on, which is that eating more fruits and vegetables can significantly increase your health, including prostate health. Study after study shows clear benefits from eating fruits and vegetables. Men who consume the greatest amounts of fruits and vegetables are at the lowest risk for all kinds of cancers, including prostate cancer.
All fruits and vegetables are potentially very helpful. But studies have thus far revealed that the following foods can be particularly helpful.
● Tomatoes - You may recall from a recent article that tomatoes are some of the very best sources of a nutrient called lycopene. Lycopene has been shown to be a powerful health promoter for the prostate. Remember that cooked tomatoes such as tomato sauce or tomato juice are the best sources.
● Pomegranate - this fruit has been proven to prevent cancer cell growth in the prostate.
● Brassicas - The vegetables in the cabbage family such as broccoli, kale, collards, turnips, and rutabagas have been proven to protect against all kinds of cancer, including prostate cancer
Eat these foods as well as a wide variety of other fruits and vegetables daily and you can protect your prostate.
Diet is just one of the things you can do to protect the health of your prostate. Along with getting enough sleep, relaxation, exercise, healthy relationships, and sunshine, smart food choices can give you peace of mind and keep you feeling good.
According to real science, you can protect your prostate best by eating the following, along with a well-rounded diet of a variety of foods.
● Low-temperature cooked red meat
● poultry and homemade gravy
● Full fat dairy (avoid low fat)
● Plenty of fruits and vegetables, including tomatoes, pomegranate, and brassicas
Follow these simple steps and you can rest assured, you're doing the right thing for your health.

Indiana Sunset
In my last posts I shared images of the new Madison Milton Bridge and described what a great job was done in building the new structure. Even though the bridge has many new details that make it a great replacement for the old bridge the one that I like the most is the walkway built on it's east side.
Walking the bridge has become the new pastime for many downtown Madison Indiana residents it's great physical activity and plus you get fantastic views of the Ohio River you were never able to get before. More than that the walkway has become a great place t0 photograph the river valley. There are so many fascinating subjects you are able to capture, from the power plant to the barges and boats that navigate the river below, it is a photographers dream location for the Madison area.
The image I am sharing was done earlier this spring during a beautiful sunset. The walkway gives a great unobstructed view of the valley and you are able to get great sunset shots with out the hills and trees getting in the way. I hope you enjoy the image and if you get a chance to travel to Madison take a walk across the bridge I think you will really enjoy it.
Winter night over the Ohio River
Here is another image of the new bridge over the Ohio River at Madison Indiana. This time I created this shot during a snowstorm at 3 am, best time to get out with no people in the way. All kinds of elements were going in this shot, light,snow and reflections in the river and I think I brought them together for a pretty good image.
The bridge is just one of the many great subjects you can photograph here. Historic Architecture to beautiful natural settings, they all surround the Madison Indiana area making it one of the best spots in Indiana for photography.
Hope you enjoy the image and thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
Madison Milton Bridge
In the time I have been away from this blog many things have happened in our community of Madison Indiana and one of the great things was the opening of the new Madison Milton bridge. Many who had traveled the old bridge can tell stories of how bad it shook or meeting a large vehicle coming from the other direction and thinking you wouldn't make it thru, and there were many mishaps on the bridge as well.
But all that changed with the new bridge. The lanes are very wide and it has a great pedestrian walkway built on the outside of the bridge as well. So travel over the new bridge has a totally different feel than the old one. But the old one had some pretty cool character to it and it was great to photograph as well.
So I thought I might start sharing some photos of the new bridge just so you can see for yourself in case you never get to drive over it. This image came last winter and I really like how the bridge was throwing down that great shadow over the landscape. With the snow and cold I thought it was best processed as a black and white conversion to show the mood in the valley that day.
I will share more in the days ahead and I hope you enjoy this image and thanks for stopping by and taking a look !!
April 3rd 1974 | Madison Indiana
Forty years ago today we saw life changing events here in Madison, I was spared any direct contact, but the destruction we viewed first hand the day after still stays with me today !!
The F4 Tornado missed were we lived by a couple miles to the north and just two years ago on March 2nd another one just missed us from the south by a few miles, with severe weather expected again today who knows !!
But just just to keep you entertained here are a couple videos of the tornadoes that came so close !!
Winter in Downtown Madison Indiana
Reached the 70's today and with spring inching it's way closer and closer to us I thought I might keep posting more images from this past winter before it gets too warm. Even though the winter was pretty harsh I was able to come up with quite a few images in between snowstorms and sub zero temperatures.
Spent a lot of time photographing downtown Madison Indiana this past winter, not for any real reason except that I live downtown and could walk to most of the places I shoot lol !!
I converted an awful lot of my images to black and white this winter not for any real artistic reason but maybe just the fact that was the mood that I spent most of my winter in, whatever the reason most of my winter photography tends to end up that way and I kinda like the results.
The first image I captured at night of Main Street during one of our many snows that we endured, I really liked the dark and isolated feel to this one, being that cold and late not much was going on anyway so it kinda helped out the mood.
The second I took one morning after a snow from on top of a hill overlooking downtown towards the Power plant. The fog was drifting off the Ohio River partially obscuring the power plant, I also liked the roofs of all the buildings in the foreground adding scale to the photograph.
So here you go just a couple more shots from my hometown and the wonderful winter we enjoyed this past year…wink wink !!!
Madison Indiana Winter
Well here it is March 6 and the temperature has actually climbed into the low 40's time to celebrate. The weathermen actually said temps would close in on near to slightly above normal temps the next seven days, knock on wood !!
Last year at this time I was prepping for trips to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and to my favorite spot Clifty Falls State Park, but now as I look out the window that time of my life looks like a million miles away, but we are getting there and before you know it I will posting shots with colors besides white all the time !!
So now before spring finally arrives I am going to share images from this past winter here in Madison Indiana, hope you like winter themed images because I sure captured a ton this year and I am really tired of taking and looking at them lol !!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my photography I hope you enjoy it.

A very exciting time in your company might be when you realize that you have to upgrade your systems to keep with the times. It can be very frustrating and can take some time too depending on what needs to be updated. There's a lot that has to go into the thought process before starting…
Two Approaches
- The company in question always has to have the latest and greatest, who change their systems as soon as upgrades become available.
- The company in question goes through more traditional means. Why change what they have when it's working perfectly fine? These companies upgrade only when forced to do so.
The upgrade plan has to focus on future growth and changes forecasted by the company. The question that needs to be asked when looking ahead is, how will the changes affect upgrade needs in the future?
Five Steps to Planning Upgrades
1. Categorize and Prioritize: Categories include
i. Client Computer Systems
ii. Peripherals
iii. Client Software
iv. Server hardware and software
v. Security
vi. Network devices
vii. Network Infrastructure
Here items can be picked and chosen as to what the organization decides to upgrade. In this if needed subcategories can be created in order to create a more organized plan.
2. Set Priorities: Prioritize based on the costs and benefits ratio. What items need to be upgraded first? Is it an urgent need or a want? Make sure to not upgrade needlessly, make sure that it's really needed.
3. Consider Dependencies: When the company is upgrading their systems they need to take into consideration what might be dependent on others. This might create more upgrades in order for the system to work with the new equipment. Or if applications are being upgraded, the system might need to be upgraded in order to work with them.
4. Phased Rollout: Don't rush it. Testing and discovering of bugs need to be worked out before starting to use the new system. After the tests are completed use small groups of employees to test the upgrades in the production environment. If there's a learning curve use the fast learners first as they can then learn the new system and assist/teach the others when it rolls out.
5. Keep it Scalable: Write out the plan. Get input from other departments and different levels to help create the plan. Plans for expansion of the company and any restructuring needs to be taken into account here too.
Proper Planning
If the organization follows proper planning with scalability included in the process, it can create a very smooth upgrade environment for the company. It would help immensely as upgrading systems can be very costly and stressful if not done correctly. Never rush the process and take time to consider all options before jumping in.

Another week has come and gone and sheesh was this a jam packed one! Monday was spent all day painting the studio (which is almost done!). Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday involved a lot of styling and taking pictures. I love opportunities that allow me to create and capture. Photography has long been a love of mine, so any chance I can work on improving my skills behind the camera and in the editing room, I'm happy to have. There's so much I don't know and sometimes I wish I had time to take a few more photography classes to improve me skills.
And……. all week long I've been battling super sensitive, and irritated skin (I over share on snapchat if you are interested – I'm oleanderandpalm there). But, I'm doing a treatment to take care of a bunch of pre-cancerous spots on my skin. I've been treating my forehead, temples and chest. This treatment has taken me down this week. It's really quite painful and not to mention super ugly. The doctor warned me that it would probably give me flu-like symptoms and I'm pretty sure it has. I've tried to stay hidden in my house, but it's not always possible. I feel like I have to explain to everyone why I look so terrible, it's been a humbling experience that for sure. Anyways, enough about that.
But, the weekend is here! And I couldn't be happier. I need a morning to sleep in (past 7 am preferably). But, the in-laws are coming next week, so I'm sure this weekend will involve quite a bit of cleaning. I hope you have some fun weekend plans to look forward to.
If you missed some of this week's posts, be sure to check out my Homemade Chocolate Coconut Granola Bars, some fun Bath Linen Combinations, and black interior doors might be in my future.
Here's a few posts that I found interesting this week, you should probably check them out as well:
- This cactus wallpaper is going on my phone today!
- I'm a huge fan of wooden beads, I'm going to have to try dying some for sure.
- These little patterned planters are pretty darn cute.
- You just can't have too many bags, this moon tote is adorable.
- I still love a good abstract art DIY, these plates are pretty great!
Happy Friday Friends!

With the World Wide Web having a firm foothold in marketing, content marketing couldn't be any more competitive and yet crucial to success of a business's brand building and customer loyalty efforts. That's one reason why content marketers need to invigorate their content marketing efforts with a different type of content, like SlideShare. SlideShare is essentially YouTube and presentation software combined. The result is a new type of content that is different from what everyone else is doing. And in a web full of content, being different is a wonderful thing.
About SlideShare
SlideShare originated as an easier way for businesses to share presentations between employees in 2006 and has since been bought by LinkedIn. Businesses can now share presentations with anyone with an Internet connection. This board audience lets businesses reach this target audience without putting in a lot of extra effort. SlideShare receives about 50 million unique visitors every month. At the same time, SlideShare visitors are checking out one of the roughly 1,140 slide presentations on its site.
So, Really… What Can SlideShare Do For My Business
The most effective use of SlideShare is exposure for businesses. Businesses get their message out to the masses. As mentioned previously, SlideShare receives 50 million unique visitors a month.
Lead Generation
SlideShare can generate leads for a business when a business uses the Pro account. The SlideShare Pro Account includes the lead generation form.
If your business has been having trouble getting the message right on marketing materials, SlideShare lets business pool their target audience to see which resonates better.
How A Business Can Use SlideShare
For content marketers, SlideShare has a wide range of applications. SlideShare can be used as a platform for traditional marketing presentations, but business marketers can also change it up.
Simply upload a presentation to the site. It can be one specifically for employees or for the masses.
Repurpose Articles
Transform an article into a slideshow with fun fonts and graphics for something different. Businesses can take an old article and give it new life or start with a new article.
Post Marketing Documents, PDFs, Infographics, Videos and Webinar
SlideShare also hosts documents, PDFs, infographics, videos and webinars. Visistors to the site can see and rate them.
Selective Marketing
It can be used just for employee-to-employee presentations, business-to-business presentations or be viewed by the masses. This makes it useful for sales teams and content marketers. Content Marketers can offer a great deal to a group of people, such as those who subscribed to their blog.
Link To Your Site
You can embed the presentation or other material into a blog post on the business's website or just about anywhere.
With SlideShare, businesses and content marketers can repurpose old content, generate leads, and get feedback on their materials. SlideShare is the best way for content marketers and businesses to get their message to the people they need to hear it, even if those people are a single entity or 50 million individuals.

An e-mail message arrived last week, from a woman in Canada: "I bought some of your soap; it is poetry that fits in the palm of the hand."
Excessive kindness, no doubt. And yet, when I watch Nurallah — a former police bodyguard — sit cross-legged to sort rose petals, or shout, his face split in a grin, to come quick and look how much essential oil this batch of Artemisia produced, I have to say that poetry is also the word that comes to my mind.
The idea for our cooperative, Arghand, grew out of a conversation with village elders in the district of Arghandab, a tangle of pomegranate orchards on the far side of the hulking rocks that watch over Kandahar to the north. At the time, I was running a dairy cooperative, and we collected much of our milk from this village, our truck stopping like a school bus for children hauling jerry-cans and pails and 2-liter Coke bottles. I was about to leave Afghanistan for six months, and I was meeting with the village to say goodbye. We touched on what might come in the future. "Milk is all very well," said one of the wizened elders, wrapped modestly in his shawl and kneeling within the circle of his peers. "But for us, really, it's pocket money. Why don't you work with grapes, or pomegranates? Our fruit is our mainstay."
Indeed, though it seems incredible given the desolation of the landscape, fruit has been the mainstay of this region for millennia. Cuneiform tablets record Kandahar's tribute to the Sumerian Empire in Babylon, counted in grapes — perhaps the same tiny oval grapes that are coming ripe now, tender green and almost painfully sweet. The scruffy, slender-twigged trees that give Arghandab the look of an abrupt swatch of forest produce tons of ruby-packed pomegranates. And there are almonds and apricots and ambrosial melons — now heaped up on street corners all over town, shaded by scraps of cloth held up on four sticks. Farmers extract these treasures from the earth with painstaking effort and love.
Listening to the villagers, a few thoughts jostled into my mind. These jewels they grow are valuable, I reflected. There is no need to introduce unfamiliar cash crops like saffron or jojoba. The main challenge is getting Kandahar fruit to a high-paying market — a challenge that could be met in part, I thought, by transforming it into something lighter and less perishable than fresh produce. Whence came the idea of skin-care products. Sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil and many other luscious oils we girls hanker to slather on our skin are derived from fruits grown around Kandahar. And what about pomegranate seed oil? I was fantasizing, but I was sure it was possible.
I am a recovering journalist. All my life I've made words, not soap. But after watching the owner of a New Hampshire company called Luscious Lathers cook up a batch on her kitchen stove, I realized the process is not rocket science. With soap, as with most concoctions, the secret is in the ingredients. And those we would derive from Kandahar's treasures.
And so I embarked on 18 months of study and discovery. During my break, home in Paris and in Boston, I pored over Internet descriptions of seed oil extractors and essential oil stills. I bought a book called "Soapmaker's Companion" and wore out its pages. I learned about "saponification values," lipids and lye formulas. Back in Kandahar, botany and chemistry presented themselves to me. Pomegranate juice, I was astonished to learn, is pH sensitive and acts like litmus: if you pour a jug of the magenta liquid into fresh soap, which is strongly alkaline, it turns … blue.
Equally exciting has been the plant lore. The Arghand guys — young men who had worked for me before, plus Nurallah, who joined us last summer after the police chief was killed — outdid each other discovering things. Karim found castor beans growing all over Kandahar. Abd al-Ahad came back from the bazaar one day clutching bundles of roots. One was golden yellow and sweet: licorice. Another was twiggy and pinky-orange in cross section: madder root, the source of the red dye used in carpets here. And then there was a thick, fleshy black bundle with layers of papery skin: alkanet root. Another litmus-like plant, alkanet provides the purple-blue swirls in our anisette soap.
Nurallah brought a little bag of peacock-blue beads the size of large peas. They crunched in my mouth and gave off an evergreen flavor. A call to my local agriculture guru and a search on Google told me they were Pistacia khinjak, a variety of wild pistachio. They will make the base for one of the bath oils we plan to market next year.
The discovery with the greatest economic potential has been that the scraggly local rose that grows almost wild here — with pungent blooms that burst open like pink fireworks for a few days in May — is Rosa damascena, the one variety that is distilled to make rose oil, a foundation for fine perfumes and that is worth about $10 per milliliter on the international commodities market. Distilling rosewater is a traditional craft here, I learned; women used to do it in homemade stills. But war and drought have killed many of the rose bushes, and the market has contracted. Now, only dried petals, not fresh ones, are available in the bazaar. (People buy a handful now and then for medicinal purposes; herbal medicine practitioners here prescribe roses for depression.) So this spring, Arghand contracted with eight farmers to plant a half-acre each of Kandahar roses. We provided the cuttings, the tractor time and the labor for planting, and a guarantee of purchase for five years. It is a tiny step. Still I can't help conjuring the image: fields of roses replacing poppies around Kandahar.
We have suffered plenty of false starts and dead ends. For a month, we slaved over 400 kilos of grapes, cooking them down to jelly that few people bought, all for a pitiful yield of seeds. (Grapeseed oil will not be incorporated in Arghand products anytime soon.) And yet our labors have also resulted in seven varieties of unrivaled soap, which look like river-polished lumps of marble, and give lather like silk.
(A small group of pilot retailers in the United States and Canada now stock them. And over the past year, volunteers have gathered around us: A French-Canadian Web designer helped us with our site, and high school students in Wellesley, Mass., and Marin County, Calif., have helped us with sales and logistics.)
Equally important has been our effort to establish a friendly and egalitarian working environment inside the Arghand compound — basically, a walled one-story building with space for two workshops, an office, the guys' sleeping room and mine and, below, a vaulted cellar where we cure the soap. Afghan society is formal and rigidly hierarchical, and for all who work here to enjoy the same status shatters convention. I described our system to another expat recently: the three Arghand men take turns by week, the man of the week doing all the shopping in the bazaar, as well as the meal service, washing up and housecleaning. "Ha!" said my friend. "How many have you fired?" Not a one. It has been a pleasure to watch men and women feel increasingly free to hazard their opinions, and to suggest improved ways of doing things, or a new plant to distill.
I know: We are talking about a total of eight cooperative members. Nothing I have just described makes the least difference to the big picture. And yet, in some ways, I experience Arghand as an antidote to the big picture. This work — tactile, clean, fragrant, collaborative — is such good therapy. If we can't clean up Afghanistan, or effectively encourage its democracy outside our gates, at least we can take pleasure in creating something beautiful inside.
If only the big picture did not keep intruding. The village where I used to buy milk does not want us to fetch pomegranates after all. The elders are afraid of retaliation. And our rose gardens are in Panjwayi, now a battlefield.

My Fair Lady and encryption
There's a set of questions that I get asked fairly frequently. Most of these involve encryption, tokenization, and elliptic curves and I can pretty much answer these questions without actually having to think about them at this point. They almost never involve the movie My Fair Lady, but I was reminded of it recently when I saw what a journalist that I had talked to about encryption ended up writing.
In particular, he ended up using "hashing" several times when he should have used "encryption." I suppose that he didn't really understand either hashing or encryption very well, so the terms were roughly interchangeble to him as being some sort of algorithm that's used in cryptography. That's probably a mistake that many people who don't work in the field of information security could make. In any event, this reminded me of how I misheard to lyrics to the song in My Fair Lady where Eliza Doolittle sings about how loverly it would be if she had
Lots of choc'lates for me to eat,
Lots of coal makin' lots of 'eat.
What I heard for the second line was "lots of cows makin' lots of meat."
I was probably 10 or 11 years old at the time, and the alternate lyrics seemed to make perfect sense to me then. So I if I can make that sort of mistake, I probably shouldn't get too upset when journalists confuse things like hashing and encryption.
(There's an entire web site dedicated to misheard song lyrics – kissthisguy.com. It's actually one of the funniest site on the entire Internet. But they don't seem to have this particular one in their database.)

The Effect of Silent Reading Practice on Reading Achievement and Attitudes in Reading.
Bartelo, Dennise M.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a Maryland State Compensatory Reading Program at the middle school level. Specifically, the study attempted to determine the effects of silent reading practice on reading achievement and on student attitudes toward reading. Subjects were 74 sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students in a compensatory reading program that incorporated silent reading practice with daily reading instruction. The Metropolitan Achievement Tests and attitude and interest surveys served as pretest-posttest instruments. The data revealed mean gains in reading and total reading scores that were greater than the results of chance. Growth in grade level equivalent ranged from a .7 to a 2.2 yearly gain. The Pearson Product correlation coefficient revealed no correlation to be significant for the reading subtest scores; however, a .61 correlation was significant at the .05 level for total reading achievement. The attitude survey results showed an increase of 17% in the amount of spare time that students spent reading. Student questionnaires overwhelmingly stated a feeling of improvement in reading ability, with 81% indicating an attitude change toward reading. Parents and teachers also reported support for the program. Thus, the study supported the belief that reading increases a reader's knowledge about reading itself. (RL)

Fluid inclusion homogenization temperatures and salinities demonstrate that cool, low salinity ground waters were present when the thermal plume was emplaced. Dilution of the thermal waters occurred above and below the plume producing strong gradients in their compositions. Comparison of mineral and fluid inclusion based temperatures demonstrates that cooling has occurred along the margins of the thermal system but that the interior of the system is still undergoing heating.

Bressie announced as An Post Tour of Sligo Ambassador
Niall Breslin, better known as Bressie, popular singer/ song writer and television personality on the 'Voice of Ireland' was announced as the ambassador for the An Post Tour of Sligo 2014 at the recently held national launch for An Post Cycle Series. The cycle Series commences with the Sligo Tour on the May Bank Holiday weekend with four other events taking place over the summer months in Clare, Meath, Waterford and Cork.
Bressie who is a keen cyclist and a regular participant in triathlons is looking forward to taking part in the Sligo Tour stating "I am delighted to be on board as ambassador for An Post Tour of Sligo. I have cycled in Sligo before and the scenery was spectacular so I am looking forward to being back in Sligo on the bike in May". He added "This will be my final big training event in the build up to my preparation for an ironman triathlon in Austria later in May and I have heard it is a challenging route so that will be a good test". With the An Post Tour of Sligo having events to cater for everybody from families to serious amateurs including 10K, 60K, 100K and 160K, Sligo ambassador Bressie encouraged people to join him on the starting line in Sligo on the May Bank Holiday weekend.
Last year an incredible 2,500 participants took to the roads of Sligo for the An Post Tour of Sligo 2013, including the family fun day and the main events, and this year promises to be even better with Special Olympics Connacht involved as the 2014 charity.
This is the sixth year of An Post Cycle Series, and almost 50,000 people have saddled up since the very first event took place in Sligo in May 2009. 16,500 people got on their bikes in 2013, a 300% increase on the numbers who took part that first year. The 2014 An Post Cycle Series gets underway on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th May with the An Post Tour of Sligo. This will be followed by the An Post Tour De Burren in Clare on Saturday, 21st June, while the An Post Meath Heritage Cycle Tour will take place on Satruday and Sunday, 26th/27th July. The Sean Kelly Tour of Waterford takes place on Saturday 23rd and Sunday, 24th August and finally the An Post Rebel Tour of Cork will be on Saturday, 13th September. Each county's event is organised by the Irish Sports Council's Local Sports Partnerships in conjunction with their city, county and cycling club partners.
