"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience."
Dr Wayne Dyer
If the story, that is your life, is unfolding exactly the way you wish it to unfold, you may stop reading now, and kindly pass the address of this website on to someone whose life story is not to their utmost satisfaction.
If however, there are a few, or a great many, paragraphs or chapters in your life's story that you wish to change, then open your mind and heart very wide, now, and read on.
I can guide you towards a better way of living your life. A spiritual life.
At the very least you will VIEW your life somewhat differently, be more relaxed about it, and therefore feel more at one with yourself.
At the very best you will fully understand that you ARE a part of the unlimited, eternal, living, intelligent, and creative spirit which is our universe, that you possess all its powers, and that you are able to shape your life story in any way you like.
I can guide you towards your spirit, to examine the very reason why you do not remember that you are a spiritual being, and teach you to take control over the creator of all your life experiences: YOUR MIND!SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE on YOUR JOURNEY towards ENLIGHTENMENT
I offer individual sessions and workshops for people who are interested, motivated, and ready, to embark on their own inner journey, working towards a life of more ease and acceptance, of peace and joy, using their own inner, divine spiritual self as a guide to get there.
My intent is to lovingly assist anyone and everyone in becoming aware of, and learning to develop and use, their mind's existing connection with their own higher, spiritual self (which is always connected to the universal spirit or Christ Consciousness, Source, God, Love, Is, etc), for guidance and healing.
I support my clients by maintaining awareness of my own spiritual connection to the divine, whilst being in session with them. I am then becoming a catalyst for my client's awareness to emerge, and grow.
The process I am hoping to initiate, to support, to foster, and further, in a person, first leads the person from a state of ignorance and unawareness, stress, confusion, fear, illness, etc, towards deep and ongoing RELAXATION. This is the very beginning. The crucial basis.
Whenever deeply relaxed in body, emotions and mind, INSPIRATION (known as intuition, "gut feeling", coming from a person's spirit) is able to, and will, enter the person's awareness, advising them of the best way to think, feel, speak and act.
As more and more inspiration is allowed, accepted and followed by the person's mind, their thinking and behaviour changes more and more, gently, from deep within, in a sustainable and lasting, as well as in a caring and loving way. This is the process of inner, spiritual TRANSFORMATION.
This transformation ultimately leads the person to a final stage of happiness, bliss, health, peace, joy, which is commonly referred to as ENLIGHTENMENT. Enlightenment will be permanent, in the end, but will also occur along the way. At first occasionally only, and not deep, then more frequent, and deeper, as the person's awareness grows. So even along the path, during the process, improvements to one's sense of well-being and happiness in life emerge and develop.
I will use a variety of skills and tools to enhance my client's life experience, towards more self-awareness, and awareness of their oneness with the divine. When working with their CONSCIOUS MIND, I use talking, listening, lectures, readings, discussions, exercises, breathing, affirmations, visualisations, counselling, etc.
Yet more effective is the work directly with a person's UNCONSCIOUS MIND, using touch, symbols, meditation, etc. This avoids intellectualisations, and bypasses the ever questioning and doubting conscious mind. One such tool is REIKI, a non-verbal way of directly connecting their spirit with the universal spirit. Reiki works safely, and on all levels: spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical. Physical touch is hugely transformational, when used as the deepest expression of unconditional love and trust.
I am also offering a broad range of very different perspectives on life, and on the world, in order to assist one's conscious mind to get a better and deeper understanding of our perceived reality. Some of these views one may find strange, or even quite challenging.
When a person's mind is (re)connected to the person's own spiritual self, and the mind accepts and trusts the spirit's guidance, the person's intuition will always lead the person towards a more healthy, calm and focused mind, more healthy and balanced emotions, as well as a more healthy and fit body. All else follows. If all works in harmony with spirit, all will be well.
If all or some of what I have said on this website spoke to you, on some deep level, and you feel somehow that this is right for you right now, then perhaps your time has come. Perhaps you are ready to seek and find your way back home."
Sessions are usually one-on-one face-to-face sessions. But we may also phone, email, chat, skype, ... or work in groups.
Sessions are by appointment only, and appointments are allocated in two hour slots.
Monday to Saturday 6am 8am 10am 2pm 4pm 6pm 8pm
Each session can be as long or as short as you require or wish it to be. But I will also listen to what feels right to me. Generally sessions are between 60 and 90 minutes long.
By mutual agreement. Expressions of gratitude gratefully accepted.
By mutual agreement. I may be able to see you in your home, but prefer my practice rooms.
Monday to Saturday 12noon to 2pm
You are always welcome to bring your partner, or a friend, at any time, if that makes you feel more comfortable.
I do not need any information from you, or about you. However, you are welcome to share. If disclosed, any information given is treated professionally and confidentially, and remains with me only.
I will not record any details, before, during, after, or about any session, in any form, written, oral, or digital.
I will not be able to, nor try to, remember what we did in any session.
I will treat each session as a session with a new client. After all, you will not be the same person I saw last time. Neither will I.
I take no responsibility whatsoever for any reactions you may experience, or actions you may perform, before, during, or after any session, well knowing that all of us always create all of our experiences, unconsciously or consciously.
I strongly advise you to always question and evaluate everything. Including anything I say or do. Believe no one. Not even your own thoughts or emotions. Trust only your own inner voice of intuition. Only believe what feels true inside you.
The name INNER LIGHT (symbolising our spirituality) and the LOGO, comprising of a HEART (to symbolise the perceived home of our spirit), an inward turning SPIRAL (to symbolise our growth path towards it), and a LIGHT (to symbolise our spirit itself) is a reminder of the journey we are all on, consciously or unconsciously, and its destination, the conscious (re)connection with our divine true nature.
SPIRITUAL GUIDING, to me, means being guided by one's own spirit towards connectedness with the divine. Whilst other fellow travellers (having experienced periods of connectedness on their journey) can point towards the path (by connecting to, and speaking from their own spiritual self), each person will need to find, trust and follow their own "Inner Light" to get to the destination – called enlightenment.
Everyone must seek and find enlightenment, sooner or later, for and by themselves, through an inward journey into one's deepest core. The journey can only begin when one's time has come, when one is ready to willingly embark on this adventure, is ready to choose, trust and act. This is YOUR JOURNEY too.
ENLIGHTENMENT is a temporary or permanent state of awareness of one's human mind, during which it realises and accepts the divine nature of one's being, as well as the truth behind our apparent reality, resulting in the enlightened person being in a blissful, peaceful, joyful state, independent of what life presents on the outside.
I am a Spiritual Guide with an extensive understanding of the universe, life, the human condition, as well as the connections of body, soul (mind, emotions), and spirit, who is dedicated to the service of the highest good for all, with a deeply loving intent and approach.
I see everything in the world as a child of an unlimited and eternal, intelligent and conscious universe, and all existing forms and beings as brothers and sisters. Therefore, unconditional love and unconditional service are my guiding principles.
A wide range of life experiences, both common and unique, paired with my scientific focus, as well as my Computer Programming, Tour Guiding, and Mental Health work experiences, enable me to understand and empathise with my clients, and offer practical support.
Relevant formal training includes: Turning Point (1994), Reiki I (1994), Reiki II (1994), Avatar (1995), Success Motivation (1995), Creative Drama (1998), Lifeline Counselling (2004), Mental Health (2005-2009), Self-Awareness (2010).
I am no Spiritual Healer. I am no Psychic. I am not a Psychiatrist. I am not a Doctor. I am not "religious". I am simply a fellow traveller on the same path, who has been studying our universe, life, humans, and the "spiritual" conciously for over 25 years.
But who I am is not important at all! I am simply a messenger. A bridge, a catalyst, a channel, a facilitator, which you may be able to use for your own spiritual unfolding. Only you, your spirit, and the spiritual message are important.
When we are truly "In Love" with a person, we want to be with them, always, embrace them, and give ourselves to them completely. We are kind, open, honest, happy, forgiving, energetic, etc. We are the best we can be. We give our love to them freely, and they give us their love freely. We want the best for them, disregarding our own needs. We do not want to change them - we enjoy who they are. At the same time, in their presence, we can be who we really are. We choose to be together. We choose to love and give.
Imagine life was a person, and we could be "In Love" with life. Even better, imagine we could be "In Love" with the whole universe, with everything and everyone in it - always! Imagine this could be our constant way and state of "Being", a state of "Being In Love".
I believe each of us can achieve, and retain, this state of "Being in Love". I believe it is not a matter of coincidence. It is a matter of awareness, choice and action. We have to become aware of our thoughts and our beliefs, our emotions and our reactions, and consciously choose to love, and to give freely and unconditionally of ourselves to others, at any given moment.
We all have an inner guide who leads us in the right direction. This guide is our "heart", our spirit. We must never listen to the voice of our ego, as it will always lead us away from love and union, towards anger, worry, fear, depression, illness and isolation. We have to learn to listen, to trust and to follow our spirit, our intuition - without hesitation or doubt, no matter how our actions appear on the outside. A loving intention is all that is needed to access our "heart".
I encourage you to consciously embark on "Your Journey" towards "Being In Love", a journey towards "Enlightenment", a journey towards your true self.
Universal Life Energy and You
The word Reiki (pronounced "Ray-Key"), meaning Universal Life Energy, describes the infinite, intelligent and self-aware energy that is our universe, the energy that everything is made of, including me, and you.
Hands-On Healing through Spirit
Reiki is the name of a method of healing through the laying on of hands. During a session the Universal Life Energy, or Universal Spirit, connects with the receiver's individual spirit through the Reiki practitioner, and then, directed by the receiver's spirit, moves to, and acts, wherever healing is needed in the receiver's body, emotions or mind.
A good practitioner will be connected to the Universal Spirit, and their hand positions will be guided by their intuition.
Simple, Safe, Pleasant and Effective
Reiki is a natural, simple, practical, effective, safe, gentle, pleasant and relaxing healing method, that can be used in conjunction with all other forms of conventional or alternative healing. It does not interfere with any religious beliefs. In fact, neither the receiver nor the practitioner need to believe in it for it to work. It heals on all levels, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual, simply through intent. It can never do anyone any harm.
A Transformational Tool
Reiki awakens a person's spiritual awareness, and facilitates their inner transformation from a state of ignorance to wisdom, sickness to health, isolation to oneness, suffering to bliss. It empowers a person to follow their inner guidance, teaching them gratitude, acceptance, forgiveness and unconditional love, and leads them towards enlightenment.
This website is under development. Like you, it will change and grow.
In the near future, new topics (like "Stories" and "Perceptions") will be added to the existing "Being In Love" and "Reiki" ones.
And some time later, this website will be expanded into a much more comprehensive site.
If you feel that this website and its content is of any interest or help to you, on your journey through life, and towards your enlightenment, please make sure you come back for regular visits, to benefit from what has been added.

The Secret Level
In Octodad: Dadliest Catch, there is a secret level called Toilet and Trouble. It's a quasi-2D platforming level with three ties at the exit. It marks a departure from the rest of the game and is a challenging, but fun, hidden level
How to Unlock Toilet and Trouble[edit]
In the Aquatic Fun Center, there is a toilet in the men's room that is directly beneath a ventilation grate. In the Silent but Dadly level, it's the stall where the biologist is standing before you distract him with a diversion in the break room. In Silent but Dadly, the flush lever is usable, but the toilet will not flush.
Once in the bathroom, put both of Octodad's tentacle feet into the bowl of the toilet and flush it. If you do this in story mode, you will be transported into Toilet and Trouble. If you do it during freeplay, the mission will end, but Toilet and Trouble will be open in the freeplay menu.

I loved Francois' character! He has a good heart and enjoys using his intelligence to fantasize about other worlds and magical creations.
I loved Francois' character! He has a good heart and enjoys using his intelligence to fantasize about other worlds and magical creations.
Jon Kent and Ian Wayne are the sons of Superman and Batman. They team up with a mysterious girl named Candace, with a troubled past, and the unlikely friends investigate an evil plot involving a deadly illness sweeping the streets. Meanwhile, the world is drowning as the polar icecaps melt and sea levels rise. Metropolis is flooded, and millions are forced to evacuate their homes and find shelter as "flood runners" in nearby towns, Jon and Ian included. Can they outrun the floods and find out who is behind the deadly virus?
I feel conflicted about this book. The characters are good, and I loved the artwork, but the story is hard to follow, because the plot is very chaotic. The scenes jump around with very little explanation about what is happening. The characters have extreme emotional reactions to situations, but it is never explained WHY they are reacting that way. There is almost no backstory on anyone. Continue reading
I loved this graphic novel! The artwork is colorful and vibrant, showing the clear action and the emotional responses of the characters. It really brings the story to life and creates an energetic mood.
The plot is excellent, with many moving parts that propel the story forward. Each scene is interesting and full of excitement and mystery.
I loved Diana's young character! You can really feel the struggle she is working through as she tries to figure out who she is and what her place is among the Amazons. She has such a strong personality, and her courage begins to blossom even while she is fighting for her own self-worth. Her emotional reactions as she interacts with other characters are powerful and pull the reader into her shoes. Continue reading
I enjoyed this graphic novel so much! The character development is wonderful, and I liked how the various plot lines wove around and finally resolved together. The super girls join clubs where they are either TOO good at the activity, risking revealing their powers, or they join a club where they are really terrible at the activity, and they feel stupid and incompetent.
The best part about this story is the adorable friendships between all the super girls! They are all so different, with different powers, abilities, personalities, and interests, but they love and support each other through everything, and not just in their crime-fighting missions. They really come together to inspire and encourage one another, and I loved the caring dynamic they shared. Continue reading
I LOVED this graphic novel!!! Everything about this book is amazing! The artwork, the characters, the plot, the dialogue, the action; it all comes together so perfectly to grab the reader's attention and tell an engaging story. Continue reading
Wallace, Amelia, and Spud are off on another set of minor adventures in the woods and creeks around Snug Harbor. They spend their days hunting the Sasquatch, tracking a prehistoric turtle named Gramps, playing basketball, making blanket forts, eating pancakes in the shape of a top hat, and ducking out of their schoolwork.
I love how imaginative Wallace is! He can take the smallest bit of nothing and turn it into a wild adventure, dragging his friends along with him.

I loved the way the hilarious fan mail stories are woven into a bigger story as the Justice League battles an invasion of insectoid aliens. The writing is really clever to bring together so many different snippets of superhero life with little glimpses of the regular kids who are their most devoted fans. Continue reading
Some of the suggestions are funny, but some are actually do-able. Some of the ideas would only last for a short time, and some are the perfect exit strategies.
If you are wondering how to escape an office party, how to get out of another dinner with your talkative aunt, or how to avoid eye contact with an acquaintance you barely know, this book will give you tips on excuses, disguises, small talk, and cover stories to get you out of any situation.

Cashae Monya, left, and Tamara McMillian star in "Intimate Apparel."
New Village Arts' production of Lynn Nottage's "Intimate Apparel" is among the finest stagings the Carlsbad theater has accomplished in recent memory. Thoughtfully directed by Melissa Coleman-Reed and featuring a superior star turn by Tamara McMillian, this realization of Nottage's 2003 play about an African-American seamstress clutching at love and dreams is sublime in its storytelling and engulfing in its sadness.
A creator of fine intimate wear around the turn of the 20th century, Esther (McMillian) yearns for a meaningful life of her own and one in which she may be cherished and desired like those for whom she sews. The prospect of a long-distance lover (sending letters from Panama) buoys her hopes. In Nottage's intelligent script, very little turns out as one might expect, and Esther's strength and heart are tested throughout. The NVA cast in this deliberately paced but literate drama also includes Cashae Monya, who brings to bright but bittersweet life part of Esther's wayward friend, Mayme.
"Intimate Apparel" runs through October 20 at New Village Arts Theatre in Carlsbad. $25-$36; newvillagearts.org
From the opening moment of Heather Raffo's "Noura," when the title character (played with arch desperation by Lameece Issaq) stands alone in the snowfall until its abrupt though unsatisfying end, this one-act drama pulsates with tension. A Chaldean Christian refugee who has left her homeland of ISIS-terrorized Iraq for a new life in Queens, New York, Noura feels herself in the psychological and emotional vise of two worlds: past and present.
In the San Diego premiere of this play at the Old Globe under the direction of Johanna McKeon, questions and platitudes predominate during a claustrophobic Christmas celebration among Noura and her husband (Mattico David), young son (Giovanni Cozic) and lifelong friend (Fajer Kaisi). The anticipation and subsequent arrival of an orphan college girl from Mosul precipitates the startling revelation of secrets and the articulation of sentiments long suppressed or festering.
For an hour-and-a-half play that takes place in a very short time window "Noura" traffics in complications, personal conflicts and identity crises enough for a work three times this length.
"Noura" runs through October 20 at the Old Globe's Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre in Balboa Park. $30 and up; theoldglobe.org
"BAD HOMBRES/GOOD WIVES:" San Diego Rep playwright-in-residence Herbert Siguenza tapped Moliere's "School for Wives" and the narco telenovela genre for inspiration here. The result is a satiric comedy that includes one of Siguenza's Culture Clash co-founders, Ric Salinas, in a supporting role. It's at the San Diego Repertory Theatre through October 27.

Definition and Overview
Patients with diabetes require a special nutritional diet to effectively regulate their blood's sugar levels while addressing their nutritional needs.
With similar nutritional needs as other people, diabetics' greatest challenge comes in the form of their dietary limitations. This is because everything they eat has a direct effect on their blood sugar level, which means there are certain restrictions that must be taken into consideration. These restrictions also place them in danger of not meeting their nutritional needs.
Who Should Undergo and Expected Results
A diabetic nutritional plan is a must for all patients suffering from diabetes mellitus, a condition wherein a person's blood glucose level is higher than normal. A patient can achieve the right nutritional plan with the help of a registered dietitian specializing in diabetes management.
A nutritional plan is a crucial part of diabetes management to ensure that the patient gets proper nutrition despite his condition. These plans have been in use for disease management as early as 3500 BC. Although the development of insulin-based treatments made patients' meal plans more flexible, watching what they eat is still necessary. A diabetic who is following a good nutritional plan as part of his treatment has a good chance of thriving despite his condition.
In addition, a diabetic nutrition plan also plays a key role in the prevention of the disease. Prevention of diabetes entails three different stages, starting with primary prevention wherein a high-risk patient is identified and critical lifestyle and dietary changes are implemented. This moves on to secondary prevention, wherein proper nutrition is used as a therapeutic technique, and tertiary prevention, wherein proper nutrition is used to manage the complications of diabetes to extend a patient's life.
However, there is no specific diabetic diet plan that works for all patients. Although there are currently a lot of diet plans that are beneficial for diabetics such as low-carbohydrate plans and low-fat plans, certain modifications and customizations are often still necessary. Thus, in most cases, each patient are given a specially designed meal plan that takes into consideration the unique factors of their condition, medical history, and even lifestyle. The meal plan will help keep patients on the right track by detailing the kinds and a specific amount of food that they can eat both at mealtimes and in-between snacks.
How the Procedure Works?
A diabetic nutritional plan typically consists of the following:
Balanced diet recommendations - Most diabetic patients need to consume a diet consisting of 40 to 60 percent carbohydrates, 20 percent proteins, and 30 percent fats. Carbohydrates may be sourced from fruits and vegetables, dairy products, beans, and starch-based items, whereas protein may be obtained from meat, fish, dairy products, and poultry. There are certain limitations, though. For example, although meat is considered as a good source of protein, the diabetic diet prioritizes fish and poultry over red meat choices. Also, it is important that meat be consumed for its protein content and not for its fat content, which means patients need to trim off some of the fat found in most meats. Fat, on the other hand, may be sourced from butter and margarine, aside from the fat found in meat. It is also important for diabetics to consume a lot of fiber, especially plant fiber.
Limitations - Other specific limitations are also detailed. For example, a diabetic may eat dairy products for its protein and fat content, but it is best if they use products with a low fat percentage. Fortunately, most dairy products nowadays come in non-fat or low-fat versions. Also, while poultry is a good source of protein, patients should refrain from eating the skin, as this contains a lot of fats.
Food restrictions - Diabetic nutrition plans also usually list the types of food that patients should avoid. For example, they are generally advised to steer clear of fried foods and alcoholic beverages, among others. Most diabetic nutrition plans also feature an exchange list, or a list of alternative foods that can be used as substitutes for the food products that diabetics are not allowed to consume.
Sugar and sodium consumption levels - Contrary to the belief that diabetics cannot consume sugar, it is actually possible for these patients to consume sugar as long as it is incorporated into a balanced diet plan, which means the sugar intake is limited to a certain amount and frequency. The same goes for the amount of salt they can use in preparing their meals.
Eating schedule - Diabetics are also advised about the ideal eating schedule and amount of food consumed during each meal. Smaller portions that are eaten throughout the day are considered more ideal than eating big portions during the three main meals of the day.
Recommended lifestyle modifications - A change in eating habits is also best supported by lifestyle changes to better manage diabetes.
Possible Risks and Complications
Proper diabetic nutrition plays a key role in preventing the potential risks and complications of diabetes. People who are suffering from this particular disease face a high risk of both short-term and long-term health risks, such as but not limited to:
- Nerve damage
- Vision problems, such as glaucoma, retinopathy, and cataracts.
- Coronary heart disease
- Hypertension
These complications arise when the patient's blood glucose levels are left elevated for a long time. This highlights the importance of strictly following the right diet plan. In fact, this has proven beneficial for many diabetic patients who have been living without any complications for decades. Patients, however, who do not take their nutritional plans seriously, face a higher risk of developing complications as the disease progresses.
However, it is important that patients also understand the limitations of their nutritional plan. Although following a balanced diet can help fend off potential complications, it is not the only feature of their treatment plan. The meal plan should be supported by regular exercise, stress management techniques, and lifestyle changes, such as smoking or drinking cessation.

What Exactly Brings About Painful Heel
Plantar fasciitis causes pain under your heel. It usually goes in time. Treatment may speed up recovery. Treatment includes rest, good footwear, heel pads, painkillers, and exercises. A steroid injection or other treatments may be used in more severe cases. Plantar fasciitis means inflammation of your plantar fascia. Your plantar fascia is a strong band of tissue (like a ligament) that stretches from your heel to your middle foot bones. It supports the arch of your foot and also acts as a shock-absorber in your foot.
Plantar Fasciitis is simply caused by overstretching of the plantar fascia ligament under the foot. So why is the ligament being overstretched? There are different factors, over-use, too much sports, running, walking or standing for long periods (e.g. because of your job) weight gain, our feet are designed to carry a 'normal' weight. Any excess weight places great pressure on the bones, nerves, muscles and ligaments in the feet, which sooner or later will have consequences. Even pregnancy (in the last 10 weeks) can cause foot problems! age, as we get older ligaments become tighter & shorter and msucles become weaker; the ideal circumstances for foot problems, unsupportive footwear, 'floppy' shoes with no support as well as thongs affect our walking pattern, walking barefoot, especially on hard surfaces like concrete or tiles, low arch and flat feet or over-pronation. An important contributing factor to Plantar Fasciitis is 'excess pronation' (or over-pronation). This is a condition whereby the feet roll over, the arches collapse and the foot elongates. This unnatural elongation puts excess strain on the ligaments, muscles and nerves in the foot. When the foot is not properly aligned, the bones unlock and cause the foot to roll inward. With every step taken your foot pronates and elongates, stretching the plantar fascia and causing inflammation and pain at the attachment of the plantar fascia into the heel bone. Re-alignment of the foot should therefore an important part of the treament regime.
The most obvious symptom of plantar fasciitis is a sharp pain on the bottom of the foot, near the heel. Here are some signals that this pain may be plantar fasciitis. The pain is strongest first thing in the morning but gets better after a few minutes of walking around. The pain is worse after standing for a long time or after getting up from sitting. The pain develops gradually and becomes worse over time. The pain is worse after exercise or activity than it is during activity. It hurts when stretching the foot. It hurts when pressing on the sides of the heel or arch of the foot.
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. This may show tenderness on the bottom of your foot, flat feet or high arches, mild foot swelling or redness, stiffness or tightness of the arch in the bottom of your foot. X-rays may be taken to rule out other problems.
Non Surgical Treatment
A change to properly fitting, appropriate shoes may be useful in some patients. Some individuals wear shoes that are too small, which can exacerbate many types of foot pain. Patients often find that wearing shoes with thicker, well-cushioned midsoles, usually made of a material like high-density ethylene vinyl acetate (such as is found in many running shoes), decreases the pain associated with long periods of walking or standing. Studies have shown that with age, running shoes lose a significant portion of their shock absorption. Thus, simply getting a new pair of shoes may be helpful in decreasing pain. For individuals with flat feet, motion control shoes or shoes with better longitudinal arch support may decrease the pain associated with long periods of walking or standing. Motion control shoes usually have the following characteristics: a straight last, board or combination lasted construction, an external heel counter, a wider flare and extra medial support. A change in shoes was cited by 14 percent of patients with plantar fasciitis as the treatment that worked best for them.
Surgical Treatment
Like every surgical procedure, plantar fasciitis surgery carries some risks. Because of these risks your doctor will probably advise you to continue with the conventional treatments at least 6 months before giving you approval for surgery. Some health experts recommend home treatment as long as 12 months. If you canât work because of your heel pain, canât perform your everyday activities or your athletic career is in danger, you may consider a plantar fasciitis surgery earlier. But keep in mind that there is no guarantee that the pain will go away completely after surgery. Surgery is effective in many cases, however, 20 to 25 percent of patients continue to experience heel pain after having a plantar fasciitis surgery.

It looks like the pricing structure you know well from all the miles you have logged in Jeremadra NSW cabs. But Uber Fare Estimator actually uses a bit different pricing model. Uber taxis in Jeremadra NSW charge riders per mile when moving, and per minute when idling. Even so, Uber rates do beat cab fares in Jeremadra NSW.
It's also important to note that you don't have to tip your Uber taxi driver. And most people do tip their Jeremadra NSW taxi driver.
If you add a tip of 20% to the Jeremadra NSW cab fares, Uber looks like an even better deal and beats out other Jeremadra NSW taxis' prices.

But I don't know any working mothers with young children who have regular sex—and there's definitely a distinction. 04.06.201804.06.2018 Comments Add a comment. Being serious is all fun, but having a little bit of humor in your intimacy game is pretty sexy. May 5, They also have a different take on what constitutes sexual freedom; one that reflects the new social rules and regulations that their parents and grandparents unintentionally helped to shape. If you do not desire sex, or can control your desire for it and who is able to do that? We can't just go out for drinks on a random Tuesday night! If you miss a day, you just add on a day, extending the challenge, but you can't extend the challenge past 40 days. Letters and laws written on tablets of stone or billboards bring death. I would say with the apostle Paul:

The association shall keep financial records sufficiently detailed to enable the association to comply with sections 515B.3-106(b) and 515B.4-107.

The current time is of the competitive environment and thus marketing becomes must if you want to survive in the market. It is all the difference of marketing that two shops beside each other receives a different number of customer orders every day. Keep stuck with an old traditional way of operating the business is not going to work anymore. The time demands change. Your restaurant business must be up to date to not just survive in the market but to grow as well. Marketing is the easiest weapon you can use to fulfill all the purposes. Below are the five things which are must for any restaurant business.
Social media
A museum must be interested to study your business if you still don`t have social media accounts for your business. Not having social media account for personal use is your choice, but not using it for your business is a warning alarm for your restaurant business. Social media is the most economical option available for doing marketing of your restaurant business, even it is a proven channel to gain more leads if you are serving the quality. Go for the specific type of content according to the social media platform. Like text status for Facebook, video story for Instagram and a good quality image for Pinterest. And yes, don`t forget to attach a link to your business app below every post.
An app
Have an app for your restaurant and provide a facility for those customers who can not come to the restaurant for dining or can't wait to place the order on call. The app provides a better customer experience which helps to establish a brand identity in the minds of the customer. It will also help you to get good traffic from the app. Go for an experienced restaurant app builder to get a hassle free app. So that you can focus on business and not be worrying about the app whether it is working fine or not.
A website
Along with the app, it is advised to launch a website as well. Keep it up to date by launching offers, posting recipes, replying to customer reviews etc. It creates an engagement of customer with your business. It is more likely that 56% of customers will come to your restaurant as he/she is having a good bond with your restaurant. Just like the app, the customer must be facilitated to order from web panel as well. A platform compatible app and website is more suitable for this purpose to accommodate data on various platforms in order to provide same data everywhere.
Offers to offer
Offers are loved by everyone and discounts makes people crazy about the thing. Apply discount coupons, exclusive offers or even happy hours to drive more customers to your restaurant business app. Even the successful big giant businesses are doing the same. We often see such things with those big businesses. Try to include different offers on regular basis to expand the customer base and these things keep the customer engaged with you for a very long period of time. This is one of the best ways to increase customer satisfaction with your service. After all who can say no to offers, right?
Responding to reviews
Neglecting negative reviews is a bad practice. It may lead the restaurant business to close the shutters forever. Reviews are the most sensitive part of the restaurant business, especially the negative one. Give some time to work out on the negative reviews received by your app and website and try to fix it. It is your chance to accept your mistake and stopping it from being repeated in the future. It will ensure the good health of your good food restaurant business. After all, everybody wants the same but only few can get the key to success.
Running the business with just traditional way is not possible anymore. The principles of traditional business are definitely the pillars of a successful business. Try to combine the traditional tit-bits with the modern approach to get flawless opportunities. That will be a complete combo for your restaurant business. Such small simple things play a huge role in the growth and sometimes for a big hike!

Great post! I want to build a website for a restaurant. Recently I've found a review of website builders for cafe and restaurants on http://www.webbuildersguide.com/website-builder-categories/best-web.... I should say, there are many good variants there. But your words sound persuasively and the suggested plugins look great. So, I'll keep your post in mind. Thanks for sharing!

Cutter location hurts Niese in second start

CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Jon Niese's rough start to spring continued on Tuesday.
The Pirates' left-hander surrendered a long two-run homer to Darin Ruf in the first inning against the Phillies in a 4-2 loss that saw him pitch three frames of four-run ball. He hit one batter, walked another two and allowed two hits.
"I fought through it," Niese said. "Right now, I'm not really worried about the results. I'm just worried about the process, getting the volume. It'll come. The results will be there."
• Spring Training:Schedule | Tickets | Complete info
Niese said he was throwing each pitch in his repertoire, but that he didn't have his best stuff, particularly in his two-seam fastball. Additionally, he had trouble locating his cutter, but he did feel his offspeed pitches were coming along.
"I felt pretty good with my changeup at the end and felt like I used that pretty well," Niese said. "My curveball is getting a lot better."
With one out in the first, Niese surrendered a walk to Peter Bourjos. He battled back against Maikel Franco, forcing a flyout to center, but Ruf took Niese's cutter deep to left field -- albeit with the wind blowing in that direction -- and over the wall.
"I told him when I got on first base that I'm never throwing it to him again," Niese joked. "He punishes me every time I throw it to him. If I throw him a good cutter, he can't handle it. But if I make a mistake with it, he's a good hitter -- he's going to hit it out.
"Just have to be weary of staying focused out there on every pitch and executing."
Carlos Ruiz flied out to right to end the inning, but the second didn't go much better.
With one out, Niese hit a batter and surrendered a walk before Cesar Hernandez ripped a triple to center, scoring two more runs. Niese then forced a fielder's choice and a flyout to get out of the second.
Niese finally settled in during the third, recording a perfect inning.
Of the nine outs that Niese recorded, four were by way of the fly ball while just two were on grounders. In Niese's previous outing, which saw him give up four runs to the Blue Jays last Thursday, he was able to induce just one ground-ball out in two innings.
"Execute pitches in the bottom of the zone," Niese said of the solution. "I really wasn't living there today. I wasn't able to locate my two-seam fastball, and my cutter, which are normally the pitches I can get the ground ball with."
Added manager Clint Hurdle: "We're going to continue to sit back and encourage Jon just to transition. There's a lot going on for a player that gets traded. For me right now, he's kind of over-competing. He wants to do well."

The brunette beauty took to her Instagram story on Monday evening – showing he followers she was watching Celebs Go Dating.
Feeling naughty, Sophie deliberately paused the show exactly as Nadia Essex pulled a seriously questionable face.
With her head tiled in the air and mouth wide open, it looked as if the dating guru was mid-orgasm.
Nadia is currently keeping a low profile after her co-star Eden Blackman has been accused of cheating on his girlfriend.
While the so-called relationship expert is yet to comment on the claims, screen shots of messages he allegedly sent to another girl appear to confirm that he played away.
Stirring the pot, Sophie captioned her post: "Caption this," before a laughing crying emoji.
She later added: "You lot are naughty... I can't even post your replies."
Sophie currently plays Ellie Nightingale in the hit Channel 4 soap.
The 25-year-old joined the show in 2015 as the Nightingales' took over The Dog In The Pond pub.
While she's keen to keep her day to day life out of the spotlight, Sophie recently let her hair down at the Broadcast Awards.
The central London ceremony, which was also attended by Love Island babe Olivia Attwood, took place at The Dorchester Hotel celebrating everything the TV and media industry have to offer.
Dressing up for the occasion, Sophie opted for a statement green check suit jacket and matching short shorts.
Showing off her killer pins, the actress wowed as she posed for photos.
She completed her look with black heeled boots and a matching clutch.

PRIMROSE Shipman will give evidence to the public inquiry today (Friday).
Lawyers representing the wife of the world's most prolific serial killer failed to persuade inquiry chairman Dame Janet Smith to allow her to give evidence either in private or via a video-link from a remote location.
Her barrister Jim Sturman claimed the mother-of-four was 'terrified' about giving evidence and feared her quality of evidence would be affected.
He described his client as being in a 'unique situation' - having been forced to move house three times since her husband's arrest - and said only wives of dictators facing war crime trials faced the same kind of pressure.
But inquiry chairman Dame Janet Smith ruled that Mrs Shipman should give evidence from 10am this morning.
Caroline Swift QC, leading counsel for the inquiry, admitted it would be 'an ordeal' for Mrs Shipman to give evidence, but said many other witnesses had faced similar concerns.
Miss Swift QC said in phase two - which will be broadcast on international news channel CNN - 'there will be people whose careers and professional reputations may be affected by the outcome of this inquiry', but they had no choice but to take to the witness stand.
Andrew Spink, barrister for Tameside Families Support Group, said the vast majority of his clients were not 'inherently hostile or unsympathetic to Mrs Shipman', but said it could cause some resentment if they felt Mrs Shipman was given 'special treatment'.
Mrs Shipman, who now lives near York, closer to Frankland Prison where her husband is serving 15 life sentences, will be asked questions about 'general matters relating to her role within her husband's practice' where she sometimes worked as a receptionist.
She'll also be expected to answer questions relating to three cases being investigated - those of Irene Chapman, Elaine Oswald and Joyce Woodhead.

Telugus' self-respect belittled: YSRCP
01 Nov 2013 2:11 PM
Hyderabad, Nov 1,
2013: YSR Congress Party on Friday objected to the national flag-hoisting by
the District Collectors and other officials in Telangana districts on the AP
Formation Day.
Speaking to
reporters after the AP Formation Day celebrations at the party office here,
party spokesman Gattu Ramchandra Rao said Telangana Ministers not attending the
AP Formation Day celebrations in the Telangana districts is an insult and
dishonor to all Telugus.
Sri Potti Sriramulu
became a martyr to fulfill the 102-year old ambition of all Telugus and Burgula
Ramakrishana Rao also sacrificed his CM post for the sake of united AP, he
said, observing some people have chosen to denigrate the Telugus and their
"The word Andhra had
been adopted taking a cue from the Warangal-based great poet Bammera Potana's
Andhra Bhagavatam after the AP formation. But Ministers like Jana Reddy and
Uttam Kumar Reddy have chosen to inflict insult to all Telugus by their
behavior," he remarked.
Gattu asked both the
Ministers whether they could dare to get the Collectors arrested as they are
not from Telangana. "They have no right to continue as ministers," he said.
Asserting that
Telangana can be developed only if the state is united, he warned division of
the state will only help revival of the feudal system. "The supporters of Jana
Redy and Uttam Kumar Reddy resorting to the disruption of Smt. Vijayamma tour
only smacks of their feudal mentality. Even Telangana people will also not
appreciate this behavior and they are hanging their heads in shame" he fumed.
Recalling that 375
people died in Telangana after the tragic death of YSR, Gattu took objection to
the vandalism of YSR statues at a few places and said YSR had earned a
permanent place in the hearts of Telangana people "Just because you have
destroyed a few statues of YSR, you cannot remove his memories from the hearts
of the Telangana people," he told the likes of Jana and Uttamkumar.
Questioning the credentials
of Jana Reddy's love and affection for Telangana, Gattu asked him not to target
other parties for attaining supremacy over TRS in the Telangana area. "It is
better you fight TRS directly for your supremacy but not with us," he warned
Jagan hoists national flag
YSR Congress party
chief Sri Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy hoisted the national flag at the party
headquarters earlier in the presence of several senior party leaders and
hundreds of activists.
He also paid floral
tributes to Mahatma Gandhi, Sri Potti Sriramulu and Dr. YSR on the occasion of
the AP Formation Day.

Getting a Boost from Nutrition Bars
As summer approaches and the sun begs to make an appearance, so do we…on bike paths, hiking and running trails, waterfronts, sports fields…any outside venue, really. The seasonal upswing in outdoor activities, enhanced by growing focus on wellness and active lifestyles, means a boost in the increasingly favored on-the-go snack: nutrition bars.
According to a study by Mintel, US nutrition bar sales are expected to increase to $6.2 billion by 2018. The nutrition bar category consists of three segments:
- Health and Wellness Bars: primarily used as a healthy snack alternative.
- Sport Bars: used to fill the protein and energy needs of the physically active.
- Diet Bars: designed for diet and weight loss.
Once popular as a diet-driven meal supplement ("diet bars"), nutrition bars are now appealing more to a growing population of on-the-go, physically active "health conscious" consumers. These shoppers appreciate the grab-and-go benefit of bars to satisfy between-meal snack cravings ("health and wellness bars") and activity-driven energy and nutritional needs ("sports bars"). As the largest and fastest growing segment in supermarkets, health and wellness bars now represents 45% of bar sales, while sports bars represent 37% of the category, and diet bars trail at 18%. Overall, retailers are enjoying a trifecta of increased growth in health & lifestyle bars: more shoppers buying greater quantities more frequently.
Nutrition bars now meet an array of specific dietary and consumer preferences. Today's health conscious shoppers are opting for foods containing increased antioxidants, heart-friendly fiber, whole grains and good fats to prevent aging and life-threatening illnesses. Many health and wellness bars boast these nutritional attributes, while many sports-related bars feature high levels of protein for optimal post-workout macronutrients. Shoppers can also find nutrition bars with a broad range of dietary specifications, including gluten-free, vegan and paleo. Brands touting limited real-food ingredients also target followers of the "whole food" movement.
In addition, as environmental concerns become increasingly relevant to consumers' buying decisions, nutrition bar varieties appeal to these customer needs. A recent study reported that 54% of consumers wanted more sustainable protean in their diets. In response, bar producers have been exploring new sources of lean protein sourced from plants (e.g. pea protein) and insects (e.g. cricket flour). Growth and increased demand for natural and organic products have also brought bars made with certified organic ingredients to the market.
With increased popularity of nutrition bars and evolving consumer preferences, supermarkets are devoting from 4′ to 24′ of space for assortments of the three bar segments. Allocating more space to nutrition bars, with particular emphasis on increased space for energy and protein varieties, is resulting in disproportionate sales growth. Offering full caddies of bars (particularly multipacks), rather than just individual bars, is also driving revenues while meeting shoppers' increased per-purchase quantity demands. Finally, merchandising bars at checkout, on separate racks and in the snack aisles, further contributes to incremental sales.
The nutrition bar category remains robust due to growth in healthy living, product innovation, and demand for convenient, healthy snacks. Retailers' attention to this category not only supports shoppers' lifestyles, but also takes advantage of one of the fastest growing categories in supermarkets.

Question: How did this become a problem?
Answer: Strong Urchin recruitment in 2011, Warm water conditions in 2013 known as the "Blob", Sea star wasting disease effecting 20 species of starfish, and poor kelp recruitment all combined to allow urchin populations to increase.
Question: How extensive are the urchin barrens in Monterey?
Answer: Nobody tracks a single species, but I estimate there are about 2,000 acres of urchin barrens containing about 80 million purple urchins. This is based on RCCA data and personal observations. There is an effort in this project to map urchin barrens.
Question: Won't the sea otters eat them?
Answer: No, at least not on starving urchins. Sea otters are a land animal struggling to survive in cold water and must consume 25% of its body weight in a day. Openly grazing urchins do not have gonad reserves and have little nutritional value. Sea otters eat a wide variety of foods and some specialize in eating urchins, but they are wise enough to not rely on starving urchins for food.
Question: Don't people eat them as sushi?
Answer: Uni comes from harvested red sea urchin gonads. Purple urchins are smaller and not harvested commercially. The purple urchins in the urchin barrens are openly grazing, looking for, but not finding, algae to devour. They are starving and their gonad is reduced to basically a hollowed out test. There is not a commercial market for purple urchins.
Question: Won't they just go away on their own?
Answer: Urchin barrens are an alternative stable state. unless there is some perturbation in the stable state it will remain that way for decades. Possible purturbations are: cold water, pollution, predation (Sheaphead, spiny lobsters), and disease. Disease seems the most possible when the urchins are in such close proximity. A disease was thought to have occured in Southern California in the 70s that reduced their numbers and there is evidence that urchin disease is effecting urchins again in SoCal.
Question: Can I just smash them when I dive?
Answer: No, it is illegal to smash urchins. Killing critters without a purpose is considered "wanton waste". With a fishing license you can take 35 urchins per day, but that excludes the urchins in the MPA's where the accessible urchin barrens reside. Plus, there are so many urchins that removing 35 is simply not enough. Efforts to remove urchins must be coordinated so that entire area is cleared to a low urchin density where kelp has a chance to establish. Randomly smashing them is ineffective and unlawful.
Question: Are divers removing them up north?
Answer: CFGC has changed the regulatory language to permanently increase the bag limit of purple urchins to 40 gallons of purple urchins in Sonoma and Mendocino Counties only. We are proposing a similar regulatory language change in Monterey.
Question: Will smashing them create a spawning event and make matters worse?
Answer: Maybe, but it doesn't matter. There is no peer reviewed scientific publication that proves that smashing purple urchins causes a spawning event. The urchins are starving and lack genetic material and before smashing random samples of urchins are cut opened and a GI test is performed to ensure that they are starving and lack gonad. The amount being smashed is statistically insignificant relative to the enormous amount of urchins spawning at their most effective time in spring. More likely, small mashed urchin remains are eaten by fish and other urchins.
Question: Have purple urchins been a problem in other areas and what was done?
Answer: Purple urchins have been successfully removed in Palos Verdes California. Until MPA restrictions were put in place urchins were removed in Orange County 3 days a week for 12 years by volunteer divers. On the California north coast, frustrated abalone divers are removing urchins bi-monthly at organized events.
Question: Will removing urchins bring back kelp?
Answer: In other areas where urchins were removed, giant kelp came back very quickly, within a month it was growing, and the following year it was a kelp forest again. This project will study removal to determine how this dynamic works in Monterey Bay to inform a larger removal effort.
Question: What's the hold up? When can we get started?
Answer: The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has granted Reef Check a permit to get started. Sign up on this website! We are petioning for emergency regulatory language change that will allow recreational divers to remove urchings ata site not in an MPA this sping. Sign up and we will notify you when the event is scheduled.

Cutting carbon footprints remains an important topic for Robeco, particularly following the launch of our own climate change policy in 2017. Robeco supports the targets for lowering harmful greenhouse gas emissions globally, as set out in the 2015 Paris Agreement.
One focus area was targeting the Group of Seven leading industrialized nations. In May, Robeco was a signatory to the 2018 Global Investor Statement, signed by 288 investors from around the world, "calling on the governments of the G7 nations to increase efforts to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, accelerate private sector investment in the low carbon transition and commit themselves to improving climate-related financial reporting."
The statement was delivered in advance of the G7 Summit on 8-9 June 2018. Similar statements were issued in 2016 and 2017 and provided a strong signal of the investor community to the G7 nations
Next to our policy efforts on climate change, we gave our opinion on the EU Action Plan for Sustainable Finance via the European Fund and Asset Management Association (EFAMA).
In July 2018, Robeco supplied feedback to EFAMA regarding a letter it was sending to the European Commission about disclosures relating to sustainable investments and sustainability risks. This included amending Directive 2016/2341. While this may seem rather technical, the final plan has the potential to introduce sustainable finance on a level playing field across the EU, and is a major debating point for sustainable investors.
Robeco's comments focused on the need to be positive, clear and not too conservative about promoting sustainable finance. Whilst we agree that investment using environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors should not become a box-ticking exercise, we also believe that the implementation of sustainable finance is unlikely to be a 'one-size-fits-all' approach.
We further encouraged EFAMA to be more ambitious in its recommendations. For example, the letter recommends that the asset management industry can contribute to a more sustainable economy by "engaging with companies in their portfolios to better understand the management of their ESG risks and opportunities." Robeco is convinced that engagement should also aim to improve overall ESG conduct.
Support for making palm oil production more sustainable led to Robeco participating in the Roundtable of Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) annual event in August. The industry faces issues related to deforestation, labor rights and has a substantial carbon footprint. We have engaged for many years with palm oil companies and will step up our efforts in 2019.
Robeco wrote to the RSPO, backing its moves to strengthen its standards for certifying the sustainable production of palm oil, a certification process that undergoes public review every five years. The final letter was sent to the RSPO Secretariat, its Principles and Criteria Task Force, and workshop consultation leads.
Although a handful of firms are already engaging directly with the RSPO via calls and meetings, major updates by letter will be shared with signatories as they occur. This is in addition to a high-level press release that was sent in August.
On 15 November, the RSPO ratified and adopted a certification standard aimed at universally strengthening social development, environmental protection and economic prosperity across the sustainable palm oil value chain. The RSPO has also developed an additional and separate standard specifically geared toward independent smallholders which is due for ratification in November 2019.
Finally, regulation has an important role to play in promoting sustainability, and therefore Robeco follows initiatives from the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), an association of bodies that regulate the world's securities and futures markets. Members are typically primary securities and/or futures regulators in a national jurisdiction, or the main financial regulator from each country.
Collaboratively with many other investors, we wrote to IOSCO in April to express our support for its review of ESG issues in two of its committees. We called on the group to endorse the Sustainable Stock Exchanges' Model Guidance on Reporting ESG Information to Investors as a consistent principles-based approach to disclosing sustainability issues.
We also asked IOSCO to engage with the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) in their ongoing sustainability work, including examining metrics as a starting point towards developing a minimum, baseline level of disclosure. Finally, we sought IOSCO's endorsement of the Financial Stability Board (FSB) Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations as a means for a deeper examination of climate-related disclosures.
