The Liverpool and Manchester.
There have been 32 stations on the line since it opened on
15th September 1830.
Liverpool Lime Street.
Opened in 1836 and enlarged in 1845 - 51 the station is still a grand terminus today.The ugly 1960's shops built at the front have recently been demolished
and this has given the station some of its character back. Work is due to commence on 30th September 2017 to provide two extra platforms, on the site of the cab road, and extending some existing platforms. The upgrade work is expected to be complete by 2019 and, it is hoped, direct services to Glasgow and Edinburgh will be re-introduced. It will be the largest improvement works at the station since the 1845 - 51 extension was constructed.
45 108 stands under the impressive train shed at Lime Street opened in 1851 it was the largest of its type at the time. The loco is hauling the 12:03 train to Scarborough on the final weekend
of Class 45 booked haulage.

45156 ' Ayrshire Yeomanry ' stands at Lime Street. This
engine was one of only four to carry a name and it was the
last of the four to survive. Allocated to Edge Hill at the time,
it was later moved to 24B Rose Grove, and lasted until the
end of steam operation in August 1968. It was cut up by
Wards of Beighton in December of the same year.

Edge Hill.
With the opening of Lime Street Edge Hill lost its role as the Liverpool Terminus. This role can still be seen today though in the impressive 1830's station that survives. Virtually unchanged from then it is now one of the oldest railway stations in the country. The original station had opened with the commencement of passenger services on 17th September 1830. This station was rebuilt and the present one opened around 15th August 1836 and has now been functioning as a station for over 175 years. In recent years the station has suffered, considerably, from a lack of basic maintenance especially at platform level with weeds taking over much of the surfaces and on the track itself.

The station approach can be seen through the gate to the right.

The extensive sidings to the north of the station still remained visible at this date with
raifreight liveried Class 31 entering with a ballast train. The length of the platforms are
evident in this shot and the bay platform to the left which housed D200 for a period has
recently been lifted.

The ticket office building on platforms 1 and 2 is of a solid sandstone construction and would have been an impressive terminus in its day. Opened by 15th August 1836 these are now some of the oldest railway buildings in the country still being used for the purpose for which they were built.

The sadly now disused buildings on platforms 3 and 4 are well looked after and are as equally impressive as the ones on platforms 1 and 2.

Wavertree Technology Park.
Opened in 2000 at a cost of £ 2 million the station takes its name from the business park which it serves. The park was built on the site of the former coal concentration depot. The station has a frequent Manchester and Wigan service.
Wavertree Technology Park is situated in a cutting and can be accessed from the technology park itself or from Rathbone Road. The modern ticket office can be seen in the centre of the bridge.

Broad Green.
Broad Green station opened with the commencement of passenger services on 17th September 1830 and first appeared in timetables on 1st March 1831. The station was rebuilt by the LNWR when the line was quadrupled from Liverpool to a point east of Huyton station. A massive change for the station occurred in the 1970's with the construction of the M62 motorway close by. The station was rebuilt and reduced from four platform faces to two. A new ticket office was constructed in a 'modern' style and this is the station that we see today. On 5th March 2015 electric services began running between Liverpool and Manchester Airport and by 2016 all services were booked to be Class 319 units.
The 1970's ticket office of Broad Green stands on the location of platforms 1 and 2 of the LNWR station. With the re quadrupling of the line from a point west of the station to Huyton it will become a pinch point on the system and there is no room for widening of the trackbed at this point.

Roby opened with the commencement of passenger services on 17th September 1830 and appeared in the timetables from 1st March 1831. The station was totally rebuilt by the LNWR with the quadrupling of the line but was reduced to two platforms when the line was reduced to two tracks. The unused platforms were infilled and the subway access was bricked up. In early 2015 the unused platforms had been re-instated and the double track formation laid throughout from Roby to Huyton station. 5th March 2015 saw the introduction of some electric services through the station with one of the two new lines brought into use. The second of the new lines will be available once work is completed east of Huyton station possibly as early as autumn 2017.

Another of the original 1830's stations although reconstructed since then the 'new' buildings are still old and have some interesting features. One being that some of the stone is actually the stone sleepers from the original line.The buildings seen today are from the LNWR rebuilding period. The station was originally called Huyton Lane Gate but was known as Huyton Lane by 1839 with the Lane part of the name being gradually dropped by the LNWR around 1852. By late 2014 the first of the two new lines was brought into use with Huyton bus station and the BT exchange blocking the path of the second new line; during late 2016 work started on moving the bus station and exchange to allow the line to be constructed.

Huyton Quarry.
Directly to the east of the junction with the Wigan line was the station of Huyton Quarry. It opened with the commencement of the passenger service on 17th September 1830 as Bottom of Whiston Incline but was renamed Huyton Quarry by November 1837. The station was to close 10 years after nationalisation of the railways on 15th September 1958 just two days short of its 128 year anniversary.

A station famous in its own right mainly for the Rainhill Trials which were held here to determine the type of traction to be used on the worlds first inter city railway. Nearly as famous is the skew bridge which stands at the west end of the platform and is definitely worth a look. Fittingly British Rail decided that the final booked passenger steam services should run along this line and through this historic station.
One or two of the locals turned out on this day to see the 15 Guinea Specials working
along the Liverpool to Manchester line. It is clear to see what the end of main line
steam working meant to them. Also of note in the background is the goods
shed of the station with the signal box behind it.

Lea Green.
Lea Green station has stood on two sites in the past 180 years the first being a mile or so from Rainhill which opened on 1st March 1831. It had staggered platforms either side of the road over bridge that is Lowfield Lane. The station closed to passengers on 7th March 1955 and finally to goods on 15th September 1958. The station platforms were totally demolished and no trace remains the station masters house which stood in the station yard opposite the westbound platform still survives as a private residence. The new station opened on 17th September 2000 at a new site around ½ mile further east adjacent to Marshalls Cross Road and with its large car park and good bus links it is a very busy station today.

St Helens Junction.
Opened around 1833 the station has contracted over the years with now only two platform faces the bay platforms on either side of the station were taken out of use many years ago. The station still has its LNWR buildings on the eastbound platform and the station masters house is in use as the station cafe. Since the line to Sutton Oak was lifted in the late 1980's the station is no longer a junction but still retains the suffix. Wires and masts now stretch through the station with electric passenger services having commenced on 5th March 2015.

Collins Green.
A station which first appeared in the timetable on 1st March 1831 it was a small station with two platform faces which served a small community. The station was closed by British Rail on 2nd April 1951 giving it a life of just over 120 years.
The site of Collins Green station no trace remains of the station and it is hard to believe one ever existed here.

The station opened with the commencement of passenger services on 17th September 1830 and appeared as Viaduct station in the timetable of 1st March 1831. It was first listed in Bradshaw as Newton Junction and by 1852 had changed to Warrington Junction by 1861 it was being known as Earlestown junction until 5th June 1950 when the suffix was dropped. It is an interesting station mainly due to it having the original 'Tudor style' buildings on platform 2. These are sadly no longer in use but were cleaned and refurbished externally for the Rainhill Cavalcade in the 1980's. Also of interest is the layout of the station it is formed of a large triangle with junctions in the west and east towards Winwick. The Westbound cut off platforms were lightly used for many years, although recently one of these has been brought back into use for Liverpool to Warrington trains as a bi-directional line. The station is well served with trains to Liverpool, Manchester, Chester and beyond along the North Wales coast.
A great close up picture of the Mock Tudor main buildings on platforms 2 & 3. The cut off lines to Warrington can be seen running to the right of the building with the goods lines behind platform 4. An interesting feature of the canopy on the Liverpool Manchester line is the addition of glass panels presumably to allow some light to platform level. The position of these panels can be seen in the next picture.

Newton Le Willows.
The station opened with the commencement of passenger services on 17th September 1830 and was called simply Newton the station was renamed Newton Le Willows on 14th June 1888. With some of the best preserved early railway buildings which date from 1840. The station was once a main calling point for the Anglo Scottish express trains to make connections with Liverpool and Manchester this all ended with the opening of the cut off line via Red Bank. The station still had an important role though as a Motor Rail terminal for many years and evidence of this can still be seen today. Another railway link is McCorquodales the printers adjacent to the station which printed copies of Bradshaw and latterly timetables for British Rail. Network Rail announced plans in 2016 for the 'transformation' of the station including a new booking hall to the south of the line with extra car parking spaces, a bus interchange, new subway, toilet facilities and step free access to the platforms. No mention was made as to what would happen with the existing building on the north side of the line.

Parkside 1st site.
Immediately after passing the junction to Preston and the North would have stood the first Parkside station. Infamous for being the place of the opening day accident which claimed the life of William Huskisson M.P. a memorial can be seen close to the station site from passing trains. The station here opened with the line in 1830 but had a short life for passengers being closed in 1839. The station did remain open as a luggage station but was closed by 1st May 1878 when the second station closed.

Opened in 1839 to replace the first station the second was only a matter of a few hundred yards east of the first. This was due to the new cut off line from the West Coast eastbound toward Manchester therefore more trains could call there. With the station being situated in an area with a low population there was never any real chance of it generating much traffic and it was closed on 1st May 1878.

One segment of the business world has exploded onto the scene in recent years: women starting small businesses out of their homes. Women are becoming premiere entrepreneurs as they turn their passions, creativity and talents into careers they love.
Coming alongside those women to equip and empower them is one of my colleagues, Christy Wright. Her guest post today is an example of the practical insights she gives women at her event, Business Boutique. No matter where you are in business—and regardless of your gender—read on for Christy's advice, which will transform how you do business . . . and life:
When I was in college, I had a mentor named Jana. Jana is an amazing example of a powerhouse Christian leader that I still admire to this day. She was relentlessly grace-filled with my crazy and immature college self, and she was unwaveringly patient when I asked one dumb question after another about walking with God.
In all of our years of mentorship and friendship, she taught me about so many things that shaped who I am even today. But there's one occasion—and literally only one that I can think of—where I actually taught her something.
I remember it vividly, I think because I was so amazed that I actually had something to contribute to our relationship for once!
We were sitting on her couch talking when she began to tell me how stressed she was. Her marriage was feeling the strain of her many commitments, her kids didn't understand when her plans would change, and she was tense because she couldn't pinpoint the problem. All of the things she was involved in were good things—great things even! And she didn't necessarily have too many things going on at the time. So what was the problem?
In a spark of unusual wisdom in that moment, I told her what I thought it was based on what I'd observed.
I took out a piece of paper and created a line of boxes. In each box I wrote one of her commitments. I said, "Jana, your life looks like this." And I showed her the page. "With all things created equal."
I continued, "Some people's lives look like this," and I took the paper and drew a pyramid with horizontal lines across it. Then I wrote the same commitments, one on each line.
(*Disclaimer: This is only an example of someone's priorities, not yours. The right order is your order.)
I said, "I feel like you're stressed because you treat everything in your life as equal. When two things compete, you feel strained because you don't know what to do. When two things compete in my life, I know what comes first because those things have a hierarchy of importance and priority in my life. For example, if I call you to have lunch on your husband's birthday, you panic. (That actually happened.) But your husband's birthday should be more important than a lunch date with me. If you called me to have lunch on my mom's birthday, I wouldn't even have to think about it. I would tell you I couldn't that day because my mom is the priority."
She got it. (And I think we were both amazed that a 19-year-old could think of something that simple but smart!) She told me later that she told her husband about that piece of paper and what I said with her husband, and he shouted, "That's it! That's the problem!" That night, they decided to take all of their many commitments and prioritize them on paper, on purpose.
What Is Your Priorities Pyramid?
We all have a lot of good things, great things, even important things going on. But if we don't prioritize our commitments, we're going to be strained, strapped and stressed. Knowing your priorities reduces stress, guilt and worry, and it increases your confidence and speeds up your decision making! You don't need to just know what's important in your life. You need to know what's most important in your life.
That may have been one bright and shining moment when I was 19, but it stuck with me. If anyone ever asks me to lunch, or anything else for that matter, I know how to answer.
I want to encourage you to draw your own pyramid. Sit down with your family, talk about each of your individual values and priorities, and write down your commitments in a pyramid in order of importance with the most important at the top. Then the next time two important things compete, you won't experience that mental angst when you're pulle multiple directions, because you put the first things first.

Imagine what your life would be like with your credit card and/or student loan debt completely erased. Sounds too good to be true, right? That's what I thought too before I looked into it and talked to people who have actually done it.
Let me tell you a quick story about a friend of mine… He was drowning in over 50,000 in credit card debt when he discovered a shocking truth: All U.S. bank loans are based on lies (they never loaned any real money. Through a scheme called "The Mandrake Mechanism" they simply made it up out of thin air). Hard to believe, I know, but it's true.
Once he found this out, he developed a system to challenge the "pretender lenders" and cancel his debts and… it actually worked :-). Free from his burden, he felt compelled to share it with others. Since then, thousands have canceled their unsecured debts like credit cards and student loans with an unmatched 100% success rate.
You see, after you challenge them to prove any real money went out of their accounts when they "loaned" it to you, they realize they can't. So it's cheaper and easier for them to just cancel your debts than it is to argue with you and risk exposing their scheme to the whole world.
If this sounds interesting to you and you'd like to learn more, please get back to me and I'd be happy to explain things further.
Wishing you all the best,
P.S. - Many people have told me this solution has been the answer to their prayers.
Most of us have through the aggravating and sometimes frightening experience of dealing with debt collection calls for credit cards and student loans. The thought that goes through our minds is "What do I do to make them go away!" I have seen many approaches to making debt collectors go away for about 15 years now. However, most of these methods often are comprised of just a few letters and no help when you need it the most.
There's an overwhelming amount of free advice floating around the internet these days about how to eliminate debt. Much of this advice is mediocre at best, and sadly, it leads many good-intentioned people astray.
Then, there are the paid programs. Many of these are mediocre as well...
: (
That's the bad news. You have to be careful.
But I also have GOOD NEWS...
There are some really good programs that can help you tremendously.
For example, the Liberty Debt Elimination System has changed all that. The Liberty system has pioneered and improved upon a tried and true method of eliminating these pesky debt collectors and helping YOU to regain peace of mind. Liberty also has its own legal team to help those with more stubborn issues. For further information, click here . . .

Finding affordable homeowner's insurance in Florida is no easy task: With an average annual premium of $2,084 (nearly double the the national average of $1,034), Florida has the highest home insurance rates of any state in the United States. This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise considering Florida's coastal geography and the increased likelihood of property damage due to hurricanes and floods.
Despite all this, there are still factors that can reduce what you'll pay for home insurance in Florida — the physical location of the property, the age and condition of the home, and, of course, the insurance provider you choose will all have a significant impact on your monthly payment.
Enter your ZIP code below and be sure to click at least 2-3 companies to find the very best rate.
Find the Best Home Insurance
Enter your ZIP code below and be sure to click at least 2-3 companies to find the very best rate.
Read on to learn about the best Florida homeowners insurance companies, and use the quote tool above to gauge realistic prices and compare rates in your area. It's an interesting state because many of the big name national providers choose not to operate in Florida. That's even more of a reason to get quotes and see what companies can provide insurance to you.
Citizen's Property Insurance Corporation
Citizen's Property Insurance is a not-for-profit, tax-exempt government entity that was established to provide insurance to Florida residents who are unable to find private coverage. With an A rating from A.M. Best, a 4-star grade from Insure.com, a 4 out of 5 rating for financial strength and 4.6 rating for affordability of policy rates, Citizen's Property Insurance is a top choice for Florida homeowners.
The company offers ample discounts on policy premiums, including breaks for complying with Florida Building Codes, installing storm shutters and impact-resistant windows and doors, and having fire alarms and burglar alarm systems. Citizen's also provides helpful Florida-specific resources on their website, such as disaster safety and prevention education to help homeowners stay aware and protected.
Universal Property & Casualty
Universal's online presence isn't as strong as some of the other companies that dominate the Florida home insurance market, but it makes up for that by offering some of the lowest rates compared to its competitors. The company's average annual insurance premium for a home in Florida comes out to roughly $1,500 — or more than $400 less than the state average.
Universal prides itself on its superior customer service, with guaranteed assistance from a real person. During times of natural disaster or catastrophe, this promise may be harder to achieve, but Universal still allows policyholders to file claims 24/7 by rerouting them through an efficient automated system and having representatives reconnect with them.
St. Johns Insurance
St. Johns is a privately held Florida company that specializes in homeowners insurance products. Unlike other insurance companies that offer homeowners insurance as one of several services, St. Johns exclusively provides property coverage.
Though you can expect high level of expertise from a company with such a specialized focus, policyholders are unable to benefit from multi-policy discounts that larger, more diversified companies can offer.
However, St. Johns boasts an A rating in financial stability from Demotech, Inc., excellent customer service, and competitive pricing for their policies, making them a top provider of Florida home insurance. Check out the products and services St. Johns has to offer by visiting their website and using the "Find an Agent" feature to consult with an agent near you.
Florida Peninsula Insurance Company
If you want a Florida-based home insurance provider, Florida Peninsula Insurance Company has become one of the state's top contenders in the homeowners market.
Established in 2005, the company ranks among Florida's top 10 local carriers. Experience handling hurricane claims is one of its most relevant selling points for Sunshine State property owners. Policyholders can file claims not just by phone but also online — a nice touch for a local provider — and take advantage of a robust learning center on the company website. A.M. Best gives Florida Peninsula an A on its Financial Strength Rating (FSR).
One potential drawback is that the company serves "just about" every Florida city, which doesn't guarantee that coverage is available in your area.

New Pharmaceuticals research report from GBI Research is now available from Fast Market Research
Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/06/2012 -- GBI Research, the leading business intelligence provider, has released its latest research, "Ophthalmology Therapeutics Market to 2018 - Dosing Convenience and Cost-effectiveness Continue to Drive Eylea's Prescription Share in Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Wet-AMD)", which provides insights into the global ophthalmology therapeutics market, with forecasts until 2018. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the key therapeutic indications of ophthalmology, namely glaucoma, allergic conjunctivitis, Dry Eye Syndrome (DES), Diabetic Macular Edema (DME), and Wet Age Macular Degeneration (Wet-AMD). The report also examines the ophthalmology therapeutics treatment usage patterns for the covered indications. In addition, the report includes insights into the ophthalmology R&D pipeline.
View Full Report Details and Table of Contents
The report is built using data and information sourced from proprietary databases, primary and secondary research and in-house analysis by GBI Research's team of industry experts.
In 2011, the global ophthalmology therapeutics market was estimated to be around $10 billion, growing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7.2% between 2004 and 2011. The glaucoma market was the largest segment followed by Wet-AMD. These segments accounted for 36% and 32% of the global ophthalmology therapeutics market in 2011, respectively. The decline in glaucoma revenue due to significant generic erosion will change the therapeutic landscape until 2018, when glaucoma is expected to account for 23%, a decline of 13% relative to 2011, and the wet-AMD market is expected to account for 37% of the global ophthalmology market, an increase of 5% relative to 2011. The decline in the glaucoma market is expected to be offset by a healthy growth in the wet-AMD, DME, and DES markets. These markets are expected to grow due to the presence of considerable unmet need and increasing treatment-seeking and diagnosis rates.
The top pharmaceutical companies in the ophthalmology market are Pfizer Inc., Allergan Inc., Alcon Inc, Novartis AG., Merck & co. Inc and Roche. Approximately 70% of the market is covered by these six companies.
- The report analyzes treatment usage patterns, market characterization, pipeline analysis, competitive landscape and key M&A trends in the glaucoma, allergic conjunctivitis, DES, DME, and wet-AMD therapeutics market.

Mankato, MN, Retirement Communities

Anand Mahindra has been known for his generosity. He's always rewarded acts of valour and he's done that more than once. He's swapped the auto rickshaw of a Kerala-based rider for a Mahindra Supro Mini Truck. He even offered to Gift A TUV300 To World Weightlifting Champion Mirabai Chanu. Now, however, the company delivered its newest entrant into the MPV segment, the Marazzo, to the fisherman Jaisal who offered his back to many a people affected in the flood as a means to get into the rescue boat.
In a tweet by Sundar Ramachandran, Anand Mahindra was thanked for the kind gesture. The Marazzo was handed over to Jaisal at the Eram Motors dealership in Calicut by Kerala Minister for labour T P Ramakrishnan. The Marazzo comes with the largest footprint seen on any Mahindra model yet, and its large dimensions are accentuated with bold exterior features and aggressive styling.
The Mahindra Marazzo's styling is touted to be inspired by the Shark and several of the MPV's styling bits have been designed on the same theme. Up front, the MPV comes with a stylish chrome-toothed grille, bold double barrel headlamps with pilot lights, and eye-shaped foglamps with integrated LED daytime running lamps. The MPV also features 17-inch alloy wheels, large ORVMs, and shark-tail-inspired taillamps, connected by a thick chrome slat.
The new Mahindra Marazzo is powered by a new 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that has been tuned to offer a maximum of 121 bhp and develops a peak torque of 300 Nm. The engine only comes mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox, and right now, there is no automatic transmission on offer. Mahindra is also working on the petrol engine and an automatic transmission for the Marazzo and could introduce the same when the BS VI emission norms come into effect from April 2020.

In the recent few years, traffic management officers have witnessed enhanced functionality of traffic lights with the usage of LED lights and bulbs. Because of this, usage of LED lights today has not only remained confined to only kitchen lights, down lights and domestic lights, but also has found applications for designing of traffic signal lights.
In addition, one can find LED lights usage in the form of automotive lights, flashing signs and various traffic signals. Users may also opt to switch them off and on without facing any problem related to flickering or fading process. However, before experts associated with analyzing of traffic signal LED should highlight about specialties of LED light sources, they want to give a basic overview on light emitting diode.
Overview on LED
LED i.e. Light Emitting Diode is a type of semiconductor electronic component, which is able to produce or emit light. It is different from any other traditional source of light because it does not include mercury or any other similar type of toxic substance. Furthermore, this type of product never emits harmful ultra violet rays, because of which the product acts as an ideal option for various light fixtures in homes and in roads in the form of LED traffic signals. If this is not enough, one can also use it for park lights, garage lights, down lights and many more.
Brightness of LED Lights
Individuals unaware of the specialty of LED light sources and fixtures would obviously want to ask about the brightness of such products. Hence, experts have analyzed that LED lights possess high levels of brightness and even come with color temperature variations found in between 2,500K and 6,500K. In this way, you may observe these lights even during daytime.
Lifetime of the Product
LED bulbs are of relatively more practical as compared to traditional halogen bulbs. These come with long life span and low consumption of energy. Experts involved in analysis and study of LED traffic light sources said that such light products are able to last for about 8,000 hours. In addition, they come with small size and thereby, act as a perfect choice for many compact areas and high ceilings as well as those areas, which are of difficult to reach for people. Even these products are of reliable, durable and bright to use. LEDs act as best choices at the time of selecting traffic lights sources and fixtures.

Imaginational OE reflects a heightened play of the imagination with rich association of images and impressions, frequent use of image and metaphor, facility for invention and fantasy, detailed visualization, and elaborate dreams (Dabrowski & Piechowski, 1977; Piechowski, 1979, 1991). Often children high in Imaginational OE mix truth with fiction, or create their own private worlds with imaginary companions and dramatizations to escape boredom. They find it difficult to stay tuned into a classroom where creativity and imagination are secondary to learning rigid academic curriculum. They may write stories or draw instead of doing seatwork or participating in class discussions, or they may have difficulty completing tasks when some incredible idea sends them off on an imaginative tangent.

I always enjoyed long car rides as a kid, because I could get my work done.
My work was stories. And the work I did in the car wasn't the writing, but the imagining. No one expected me to accomplish anything while in transit, so I was free to think about ideas, plots, and characters, which was almost always where my mind would go when I was free.
I don't remember how old I was when I wrote my first story, but it was probably around kindergarten; it was about people who lived on the sun, and I wrote it with a red-orange marker on a piece of yellow construction paper. Dad pointed out (with evident delight, being a sci-fi buff himself), that this was something called science fiction. The first story I can date was in the summer before second grade, and it was about a little girl named Cutey who had a scoop of grape ice cream (given that the marker I had to color it was light purple) that got mixed with some chemicals that caused it to grow to the size of a house. I made a whole series of stories about Cutey, which I wrote in booklets made from the partially-used computer paper that my dad would donate to my Montessori school. I would fold it in half, staple it along the fold, and fill the resulting booklet with story until I ran out of pages, crossing out the residual programmer printouts whenever I came across them. I rewrote Cutey and the Tornado several times, finding this Girl vs. Nature conflict to be of particular importance in my early works. Cutey also went to Hawaii where, naturally, a volcano happened to erupt.
We got a reliable Internet connection at home in 1996, when I was almost 14. The first thing I asked was whether I could make a webpage so I could publish a series of stories I had been writing over the past couple years about the Carlson Septuplets. Soon I had met a lot of fellow young writers I met online; many of them wrote fanfiction, but that didn't interest me because I couldn't fully control the creative process. Others with imaginational OE may well feel differently, but in my case, I wanted to invent everything.
The OEQ2, an instrument designed to measure OEs in a way that's quicker and easier to score than a long interview with an individual subject, focuses on "fantasy" to measure imaginational OE, but it's worth noting that fantasy doesn't only mean magic and other worlds and so on. I did write stories that had magical or fantastic elements in them, but I also had the Carlson Septs and another series about a girl who went to live in Japan with her American family. No magic was required in either case, but there was still quite a lot of "what if?" involved.
Eventually I learned that my ability to visualize things was somewhat unusual. In high school, in a class on opposing viewpoints in science, we were discussing the process of having a back-street abortion. There wasn't a single visual aid, but I created such a strong image in my mind that I passed out because of the image and sensations that occurred only in my mind. Parents understandably focus on the role of imaginational OE in their child's fears; well, as a child, I was terrified of the Emergency Broadcast System, because even if it was "only a test," that awful alert sound would fill my mind with impending funnel clouds, and also possibly nuclear weapons, prompting me to write in my first grade Montessori class about my concern that a technical error could lead to an accidental nuclear launch. Imaginational OE remains an important component of my worries as an adult: the ease of envisioning things like car wrecks makes it hard to completely banish them from my mind.
As this blog attests, I still do a lot of writing; I don't do as much creative work as I used to, but that's something I'd like to change. I still have lots of ideas. I love weekend mornings, because ten o'clock a.m. is—seemingly innately—my most creative time. I wake up, start a warmup of ideas while reading a book or showering or swimming or vacuuming, and by ten, I am always eager to start writing something. Once I start working, the state of flow can last for a good several hours, though eventually I usually realize my blood sugar has dropped while I was in that flow state and I have to eat something.
The things I write now incorporate imaginational OE in that I'm often thinking about the world as it could be. It's therefore a key part of why I think positive change is possible. It really does help to be able to visualize world peace. Just as imaginational OE can increase fear and anxiety because we can see those car wrecks or terrorist attacks in our minds' eyes, it also helps see more clearly just how the world could be different.

Vedula, S and Mujumdar, PP and Sekhar, Chandra G (2005) Conjunctive use modeling for multicrop irrigation. In: Agricultural Water Management, 73 . pp. 193-221.
Download (851kB)
A mathematical model is developed to arrive at an optimal conjunctive use policy for irrigation of multiple crops in a reservoir-canal-aquifer system. The integration of the reservoir operation for canal release, ground water pumping and crop water allocations during different periods of crop season (intraseasonal periods) is achieved through the objective of maximizing the sum of relative yields of crops over a year considering three sets of constraints: mass balance at the reservoir, soil moisture balance for individual crops, and governing equations for ground water flow. The conjunctive use model is formulated with these constraints linked together by appropriate additional constraints as a deterministic linear programming model. A two-dimensional isotropic, homogeneous unconfined aquifer is considered for modeling. The aquifer response is modeled through the use of a finite element ground water model.A conjunctive use policy is defined by specifying the ratio of the annual allocation of surface water to that of ground water pumping at the crop level for the entire irrigated area. A conjunctive use policy is termed stable when the policy results in a negligible change in the ground water storage over a normal year. The applicability of the model is demonstrated through a case study of an existing reservoir command area in Chitradurga district, Karnataka State, India.

"The Break-Up" hints that the broken-up couple will get back together again, but that doesn't make us eager for a sequel. The movie stars Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston as Gary and Brooke, a steady couple who have many reasons to break up but none to get together, except that they fall in love. Since the scenes where they're together are so much less convincing than the ones where they fall apart, watching the movie is like being on a double-date from hell.
Gary is obsessed with the Chicago Cubs and video games, and thinks if they moved the dining table into the living room, that would make space for a pool table. He and his brothers run a Chicago tour bus company, and he is the tour guide. Brooke works in a high-powered Chicago art gallery. They break up because she says he never listens to her, or appreciates all the work she does around the house, or how she cooks his meals and picks up his laundry. All true, but these are not merely faults, they are his essential nature, and he will never, ever, be interested in her world. Not when he thinks Michelangelo painted the ceiling of the "16th Chapel."
True, their arguments are funny, at least while they're still getting along. They have a fight right at the beginning that had me nodding my head and recognizing my own shortcomings. At the 30-minute mark, I thought the movie had a chance, but it grew dreary and sad, especially when they both receive spectacularly bad advice from their best friends (Joey Lauren Adams and Jon Favreau).
There's a stretch when Gary's sleeping on the sofa surrounded by dirty underwear and she's trying to make him jealous by being picked up at home by a series of handsome studs. Would any woman really do this? The way to make a guy jealous is by seeming to really like someone else, not acting like first prize on Match.com.
Gary, on the other hand, tries to make Brooke jealous by hiring hookers to join his buddies in a strip-poker game. Believe it or not, this doesn't work, either. By the time they have a heart-to-heart, it's way too late because both hearts are broken, and it isn't a pretty sight.
What the movie lacks is warmth, optimism and insight into human nature. I point you to "Fever Pitch" (2005), with Jimmy Fallon as a schoolteacher and Red Sox fan, and Drew Barrymore as a business executive. It begins by showing them really and truly falling in love, and then baseball season starts and she realizes he is two guys: the guy she fell in love with and the Red Sox fan. If she can accept both of these personalities, and he can accept her needs, they can repair their problems.
The problem with Gary is that he has only the one personality, and even if he starts listening to her and thanking her for picking up his dirty socks, they will still be profoundly incompatible. For the movie to work, we would have to like the couple and want them to succeed. Despite some sincere 11th-hour soul-searching by Gary, we're sorry, but we don't want them back together, we want them to end their misery.
The supporting cast adds variety, to be sure, but of a strange kind. Occasionally, supporting actors will be so effective you want the movie to be about them. "The Break-Up" is filled with actors who seem to be auditioning for that role. John Michael Higgins, as Brooke's brother, is the leader of a men's choir and tries to turn a family dinner party into a sing-along; this scene might be funny in theory, but in practice it's ungainly. Favreau and Adams, as the best friends, get whiplash from a plot that requires them to give one kind of advice at the beginning and another kind toward the end, as if they hadn't been listening to themselves. And Judy Davis, as the art gallery owner, behaves as if she should be carrying a whip. The best supporting performance is by Vincent D'Onofrio, as Gary's older brother: He does exactly what is required, finds the right notes and is so convincing we hardly notice he is cleaning his ears with separate handkerchiefs.
That Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn are such likable actors compounds the problem. They're not convincing as sadistic meanies, and when the movie makes them act that way, we feel sorrier for them than for their characters. Their problems start in the first scene, at Wrigley Field, where Gary is a jerk who forces Brooke to accept a hot dog she doesn't want and then insults her date. Why would a girl end up with a guy who acts like that the first time she meets him? We never find out. The next time we see them, they're living together.
Must have been some courtship.

Happy Thanksgiving! My favorite part of the holiday is taking the time to be grateful – giving thanks for all that we have. I'm so grateful for my loving family, friends, our health, and for all of you who take the time to read my blog! Thank you! Having an "attitude of gratitude" has been shown to improve overall health, happiness, and well being. Let's all take some time today to reflect on all the gifts we have in life, and keep those less fortunate in our hearts and minds.
Attitude of Gratitude
A study performed at UC Davis in California looked at the effects of gratitude. Dr. Emmons and his team found that taking the time to reflect on the good things in life improved emotional and physical health and well being. They studied a group who kept a journal of the things they were grateful for vs. those who didn't. They found that "those who kept gratitude journals on a weekly basis exercised more regularly, reported fewer physical symptoms, felt better about their lives as a whole, and were more optimistic about the upcoming week compared to those who recorded hassles or neutral life events (Emmons & McCullough, 2003)". Sounds like a pretty easy thing to do, no?
Curious about the other health benefits of gratitude? You can find some great reads here, here and here.
Giving Thanks
During this holiday season, let's keep those who may be struggling in our hearts and minds. There are so many children, adults, and animals – who may not have access to clean water, a filling meal, or a warm place to lay their heads to sleep. The child whose parents couldn't afford food today. The woman seeking refuge in a shelter. The man who just needs a safe, warm place to rest his head. The elderly couple stuck in a senior home with no visitors. The sad dog at the local shelter who just needs a little love. You can make a difference in your community this season by giving back and helping those around us.
Giving back doesn't always have to mean "money". Giving back can come in many forms, from volunteering your times, skills or energy to volunteer at the local shelter, food bank, or hospital to buying food and gifts for organizations who can provide these services. Don't feel like you have to take this on all by yourself. Most companies participate in some sort of giving campaign and most will give you time off work to go volunteer or will match and monetary donation you make up to a certain point!
Unfortunately, with generosity can come those who will abuse it. Please do your due diligence on any company or organization to which you donate time or money.
Need some inspiration to give back? I've compiled a small list below. Let's get started and make the world we live in a better place!
Volunteer your time, skills, or energy:
- Help stock food at your local food bank or pantry.
- Volunteer to read to kids at your local children's hospital.
- Play with the dogs and cats at the local animal shelter.
- Spend time with seniors at a nursing home.
- Workshop resumes and interview skills at a homeless shelter.
- Serve food at a soup kitchen or shelter.
- Build a sustainably priced home by volunteering for Habitat for Humanity.
- Become a mentor.
- Prepare "care kits" for the homeless.
- Use services like volunteermatch.org to find volunteer opportunities in an area for which you are passionate.
- Get active! Read up on solutions for hunger and homelessness – there are many organizations fighting these situations! Get involved by volunteering your time or supporting their cause.
Donate items or funds:
- Clean out your closet and donate items in good condition to Goodwill or a shelter.
- Donate money to your local food bank or pantry for them to buy fresh food. (Why shouldn't you donate cans of food? Watch this video!)
- Partner with your company to donate money to a shelter / food bank/ cause.
- Buy toys or food for the local animal shelter or donate money.
- Buy toys for children in shelters (make sure you check with the shelters to see what they could use first!).
- Purchase blankets and toiletries for homeless shelters.
- Donate money to a cause you're passionate about. Is it saving the whales? Clean water for children in 3rd world countries? You can make a difference!
- Support companies who do good. My friend Z's company, Serenity Forge, is donating the proceeds from the sales of their video games to ACLU Nationwide and Planned Parenthood!
- Spread the awareness – help your local domestic violence awareness program and shelters by donating food, clothes, and time.
- Purchase clothes, sporting equipment, or school supplies for charities such as A Precious Child (make sure you call and ask what they are accepting first!).
- Donate funds to children's hospitals like St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
Have more ideas on how to give back? Let me know in the comments below!
A huge thank you to everyone reading my blog!! Have a safe and happy thanksgiving everyone!!!
