Transformative Self-Healing Essences
skip directly to essence fusions
Health issues are the inevitable result of long-held negative emotions. Studies have shown that negative emotions actually weaken your body, while positive emotions strengthen your body. Shame has the most devastating effect, followed by guilt, apathy, grief, fear, resentment, anxiety, craving, anger, hate, and stubborn inflexibility. Learn more about the physical symptoms that various emotions elicit
Physical pain begins with emotional pain. An electrical charge is created whenever you feel an emotion. These electrical impulses travel instantly along your neural pathways and through cells, triggering the release of chemical proteins called neuro-peptides (NPs). NP's communicate chemical messages throughout your body to prompt physiological responses. Learn why pain demands to be heard ...
In short bursts many NP's can be beneficial. But, negative emotional issues can get 'stuck' in physical tissue causing an NP 'loop-back' or cascade, that, over time, can break down body functions. So, indeed, your thoughts and feelings do cause or alter your physiological state. Learn more ...
... We wanted to address this phenomena by using botanical frequencies to change the electrical signals your body is receiving. If we overwrite a mental or emotional pattern to elicit beneficial neuropeptides, will the physiology change? Will the mental state change, as well?
Our safe, gentle natural botanical frequency fusions are extensively field tested for a broad range of related situations and personality types. Instructions are provided with each essence fusion

By the last sip, I believe I could smell the flowers in the essence. When the package arrived, I noticed my nose was running and my chest has been congested for several weeks with a sore throat. Here, minutes after this first dose, my nose is not running. It's so beautiful how the Universe helps us......I'm very grateful for you and the flowers' support."

This gentle soap is wonderful for babies and the elderly. Keeps delicate skin healthy and smooth. Treat delicate skin with utmost care.
Keep out of eyes. Will sting eyes if it gets into them; but will not harm the eyes. We do not add that numbing chemical to our products. Which allows the chemicals to damage delicate eyes.
Handcrafted, gentle products for babies.
Babies have very sensitive and delicate skin. The toxins in commercial products are damaging to baby's skin. There are over 25,000 chemicals in those products. 70% of those are considered toxic. Here at HealingScents we Hand-Craft the safest most natural products.
It makes sense to use the most natural products you can. Keep your baby safe from these toxic chemicals. Then, less to worry about. Not skin problems, nor eye problems, or future problems with congested liver, kidneys or pancreas.
Regularly using essential oils also fights the bacteria and virus that are the leading causes of colds, flu, and other illnesses.
Final note: If a shampoo claims "No Tears" formula, it means they have a chemical numbing agent in the detergent (it's not soap) to numb the eyes so the baby/child can not feel the irritation. This can lead to eye damage.

Nokia has announced plans to cull 1,800 jobs and across the border Sony Ericsson have slipped out of the top five phone makers.
Nokia announced the job cut as it reported its quarterly earnings, which were an improvement over last year, but sales were still some 2 percent down year-on-year. Nokia CEO Stephen Elop said that the company was facing "a remarkably disruptive time" and warned that its market share would continue to sink. It would probably be a good idea to tell Mr Elop that it's his responsibility to turn the company around rather than make ominous warnings.
On the other side of the border things are not looking up for SonyEricsson, either. The outfit has dropped from fourth to sixth place in overall phone shipments in Q2, with a market share of 3.6 percent. This is the first time in three years that SE did not manage to make the top five. SE was outpaced by ZTE and RIM with 4.2 and 3.7 percent respectively.
Like Nokia, SE is facing increasingly stiff competition in the growing smartphone market. Samsung and LG on the other hand have adapted and grabbed 20.8 and 10 percent of the market respectively.

Fall Reading and Decorating
It is an overcast and cool Fall day, a perfect afternoon to light the candles, cosy up indoors with a cup of tea and a few good books.
Although I love to decorate for each season, I plan to wait until we return from our trip before I do much in the way of Fall decorating.
I am getting wonderful inspiration, however, from the following books:
What are you doing to welcome the Fall season?

The relationship between marijuana and professional sports has become increasingly complicated as legalization spreads throughout the U.S. Some leagues, like Major League Baseball, have relatively lax policies regarding cannabis, while others, like the National Football League, are vehemently against use for any reason.
Now, the racing organization NASCAR, which relies heavily on advertising dollars from giant logos on the company's cars and drivers, has taken a clear stand against the cannabis industry. On Friday, driver Carl Long rolled into the Kansas Speedway with a surprising sponsorship from the Denver marijuana vaping company Veedverks.
According to a NASCAR spokesperson, the sponsorship was never vetted or approved by the racing organization, and the advertisement was promptly removed after it was discovered during a tech inspection. Although NASCAR failed to offer a reason for why they denied the sponsorship, Section 7.6.2.a of the rule book states:
"NASCAR may refuse to permit a Competitor to participate in an Event if NASCAR determines that any advertising, sponsorship, or similar agreement to which the Competitor is or will be a party, is detrimental to the sport, to NASCAR, Series Sponsor, or to the Promoter for any reason, including without limitation, the public image of the sport."
This weekend's race was Long's first time returning to NASCAR's top series in almost a decade. The controversial driver was barred from professional racing for failing to pay a $200,000 fine back in 2009. The penalty was originally levied on Long for using an oversized engine during a race, and eventually led to a eight-year suspension.
Nonetheless, his long-awaited return has proved to be a controversial one, as the Veedverks logo on the hood of his No. 66 car has been unsubtly blotted out from public view. It doesn't seem like the nixed cannabis advert will impact Long's NASCAR return, but it does display how the professional racing organization feels about the nation's budding cannabis industry.

Dia Art Foundation Inaugurates Special Program for the City of Beacon
Residents of Beacon receive free admission to Dia:Beacon on Saturdays and Sundays; special programs and a performance by Pete Seeger inaugurate the initiative on October 17, 2009
Beacon, NY - On Saturday, October 17, 2009, Dia Art Foundation celebrates the launch of free admission for City of Beacon residents on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the year. Dia will inaugurate the initiative with a day of special programs and events, including a performance by legendary folk musician Pete Seeger and remarks by Dia director Philippe Vergne and Beacon Mayor Steve Gold. Free admission is available to all Beacon residents with valid government identification, and the day-long activities to mark the launch is open to the public.
Mr. Vergne states, "Free weekend admission at Dia:Beacon is a good neighbor practice. It is a simple civic exchange that I hope will help make art, and looking at the world through art, more broadly available to the Beacon community who have welcomed Dia so warmly over the past six years. We hope the public will join us on October 17th and participate in the inaugural activities."
Free admission on weekends for Beacon residents builds on the long-term success of Dia:Beacon's Arts Education Program (AEP) which was initiated in partnership with Beacon City Schools in 2001, prior to the museum's opening. The Arts Education Program offers students in the City of Beacon school district a supplementary arts curriculum that provides opportunities for in-depth, structured explorations of art. Students at the elementary, middle, and high-school levels interact directly with works on view at the museum, participating in specially designed activities that relate to aspects of their own school curricula. The program makes Dia's collection and the museum a resource for area students and their teachers and families. Since its inception, the AEP has expanded beyond schools in the City of Beacon to encompass partnerships with local cultural and educational organizations and colleges, a series of professional-development workshops, and the implementation of an education resource website. During the 2008-2009 school year, more than 2,500 students participated in education programs at Dia:Beacon.
Since opening in 2003, Dia:Beacon has additionally hosted extensive public programming at the museum including free monthly gallery talks, dance performances, film screenings, concerts by St. Luke's Chamber Ensemble, and Community Free Days for neighboring counties. These initiatives complement Dia's distinguished collection of art from the 1960s to the present which is on long-term view and temporary exhibitions by contemporary artists.
Launch Day Activities at Dia:Beacon, Riggio Galleries
11:30am Complimentary refreshments, including apples and cider from Fishkill Farms and pumpkin spice muffins from The Funky Baker
12:00pm Welcome remarks by Philippe Vergne, Director, Dia Art Foundation, and Mayor Steve Gold, City of Beacon
Performance by Pete Seeger
1:00pm Guided tours of Dia's collection for adults and families
2:00pm Line, Rhythm, Chance: guided activities for families in the museum's Learning Lab. Open by reservation to children 6 and above accompanied by an adult. RSVP firstname.lastname@example.com.
Free weekend admission for residents of the City of Beacon is made possibly by Lyn and John Fischbach in honor of Pete Seeger.
Dia:Beacon, Riggio Galleries
Dia Art Foundation celebrates the sixth anniversary of Dia:Beacon in May 2009. The museum, which has welcomed over 500,000 visitors since its opening, presents Dia's distinguished collection of art from the 1960s to the present. Situated on the banks of the Hudson River, in Beacon, New York, the museum occupies a former Nabisco box-printing facility that was renovated by Dia with artist Robert Irwin and architect OpenOffice.
Dia:Beacon's expansive galleries, which comprise 240,000 square feet of exhibition space illuminated by natural light, house works by a focused group of some of the most significant artists of the last half-century. These include Bernd and Hilla Becher, Joseph Beuys, Louise Bourgeois, John Chamberlain, Walter De Maria, Dan Flavin, Michael Heizer, Robert Irwin, Donald Judd, On Kawara, Imi Knoebel, Sol LeWitt, Bruce Nauman, Blinky Palermo, Gerhard Richter, Robert Ryman, Fred Sandback, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson, Andy Warhol, and Lawrence Weiner.

APP Questions
Astroparticle Physics has evolved as a new interdisciplinary field at the intersection of particle physics, astronomy and cosmology.
Astroparticle physics addresses some of the most fundamental questions of contemporary physics (see also "Connecting Quarks with the Cosmos: Eleven Questions for the New Century", National Academies Press 2003). Achieving an answer to most of these questions would mark a major break-through in understanding our Universe and would open up entirely new fields of research.

I just wanted to quickly put up this easy lesson that I forgot to submit the other day. I don't think I need to say too much about this tutorial because it is based on an easy cow. There are several tutorials on the site when it comes to drawing a cow, and this one is probably one the easiest lessons I have. There is different ways you can draw a cow, but I chose to keep the design simple so everybody can tackle this submission. The cow design itself just consists of some simple round shapes, and the legs are drawn to match the shape of the cow's body. One of the things I like most about this drawing or cow, is the fact I gave her some really pretty gold colored horns. Now of course you don't have to color in your cow's horns in gold, but if you want to do something like that too, you can. I guess that just about does it for this tutorial description. I will be back later on with some other fun stuff for you guys to draw. Peace out people, and have a fun drawing day!
DragoArt members upload artwork and drawing tutorials! They are also allowed to leave comments on tutorials, profiles, etc. Many more features, as well; it's way better than just being a boring guest! Register Now!

Matt Daigle
CEO of Rise
"At Rise, we believe in next generation home building, today. Making sustainable home building choices should be engaging, and should benefit everyone – financially, socially, and environmentally. Our goal is to make it easier and more accessible for everyone to take advantage of the amazing technologies and advancements in sustainable home building, and breaking down barriers to adoption like cost prohibition and rebate/incentive availability – making it a no-brainer for any homeowner or professional to design and build this way. We're on a mission to change the residential construction landscape by helping everyone build better homes that are fit for tomorrow's standards."
Learn more at http://www.myrise.house/ and http://huddle.today/how-rise-wants-to-help-your-home-go-green/
Q: Civic Technology can be defined as "empower citizens or help make government more accessible, efficient and effective". Do you think that Rise does this? If so, how?
Definitely, yes. The nature of the work that we do is beyond the financial side of things, we're passionate about protecting the environment and empowering our customers to gain the knowledge they need to both save money, and live a more sustainable life. This can be further reflected by our aspiring b-corp certification, which is something really important to us – we're passionate to be a business force for good. We've got multiple stakeholders involved in our platform who all share the focus of benefitting the end user to achieve a sustainable home and lifestyle, these include home improvement professionals, suppliers of environmentally friendly products, energy suppliers/utilities, among many others.
Q: What are the biggest hurdles that Rise solves?
There are a number of myths that sustainable living is too expensive and generally out of reach for many families, however, this isn't really true at all. Purchasing environmentally friendly products for one's home isn't all that expensive, and can have incredibly positive returns through savings. Our mission at Rise is to break this myth down further through educating the masses about sustainable living – the products on the market, the impact they will have on the environment, the money they will save, and everything inbetween. We want sustainable living to be a mainstream lifestyle, something attainable by all.
We want sustainable living to be a mainstream lifestyle, something attainable by all.
Q: How has the service developed over time?
The vision has remained consistent since we started Rise, we've focused on how we can grow something bigger that will have a greater impact while also benefitting all of the stakeholders involved.
Q: What is the role that data plays in your business?
Data plays an instrumental role in helping us communicate the impact of environmental decisions – for example, if a user is deciding between two water heaters, we use the data of the product and impact it would have in regard to water supply, energy to heat the water, etc. to communicate the overall impact of that water heater in the user's home. It's essentially data science used to define the financial ROI and environmental impact of the various products a user can buy to build a more sustainable home, cultivating or further developing a sustainable lifestyle.
Q: How does the data you collect impact your business and operations? Does it impact the bottomline of Rise?
Our mission is to provide users with all the education they need to make informed decisions for sustainable living. Data is at the core of this value proposition and has a major impact on our bottom line.
Q: What role has the government played in Rise's success?
The government has been super helpful in terms of funding programs for helping us get on our feet, things like ACOA, ONB, NRC, IRAP and Planet Hatch. Beyond that, we've begun working with a number of different energy utility companies to help expose and advertise rebate programs by tying them to tangible products. These will help reward the individuals who choose more environmentally friendly products for their home, and their efforts to live a more environmentally conscious lifestyle.

The Australian Museum was an amazing place to get married. It was quirky and different, which was exactly what we were after, but also elegant and classy.
We didn't need too many decorations because the museum displays we used (Wild Planet and The Long Gallery) were stunning enough without adding to them - we just used table centrepieces. Our food was also spectacular, as were the wines.
The feedback we keep getting is that our wedding was the most memorable, spectacular and fun that many of our guests had ever attended.
The only point for improvement I could give is that we did have several changes of wedding coordinator, for various reasons. If we could have had one coordinator throughout I would have said the experience was perfect!
Both myself and my groom would definitely recommend getting married at the Australian Museum!

Epigenetics is the study of cellular and physiological phenotypic trait variations that result from external or environmental factors that switch genes on and off and affect how cells express genes. Epigenetic research seeks to describe dynamic alterations in the transcriptional potential of a cell.
Mechanisms that produce such changes are DNA methylation and histone modification, each of which alters how genes are expressed without altering the underlying DNA sequence. Gene expression can be controlled through the action of repressor proteins that attach to silencer regions of the DNA. These epigenetic changes may last through cell divisions for the duration of the cell's life, and may also last for multiple generations even though they do not involve changes in the underlying DNA sequence of the organism; instead, non-genetic factors cause the organism's genes to behave differently.
Epigenetics is important for cellular differentiation, embryology, the regulation of gene expression, aging, cancer, and other diseases.
Histone acetylation and deacetylation are the processes by which the lysine residues within the N-terminal tail protruding from the histone core of the nucleosome are acetylated and deacetylated as part of gene regulation. Histone acetylation and deacetylation are essential parts of gene regulation. These reactions are typically catalysed by enzymes with histone acetyltransferase (HAT) or histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity.
Acetylated histones represent a type of epigenetic marker within chromatin. Acetylation removes the positive charge on the histones, thereby decreasing the interaction of the N termini of histones with the negatively charged phosphate groups of DNA. As a consequence, the condensed chromatin is transformed into a more relaxed structure that is associated with greater levels of gene transcription. This relaxation can be reversed by HDAC activity. Relaxed, transcriptionally active DNA is referred to as euchromatin. More condensed (tightly packed) DNA is referred to as heterochromatin.
Histone methylation is a process by which methyl groups are transferred to amino acids of histone proteins that make up nucleosomes, which the DNA double helix wraps around to form chromosomes. Methylation of histones can either increase or decrease transcription of genes, depending on which amino acids in the histones are methylated, and how many methyl groups are attached. Methylation events that weaken chemical attractions between histone tails and DNA increase transcription, because they enable the DNA to uncoil from nucleosomes so that transcription factor proteins and RNA polymerase can access the DNA. This process is critical for the regulation of gene expression that allows different cells to express different genes.
DNA methylation is a process by which methyl groups are added to DNA. Methylation modifies the function of the DNA. When located in a gene promoter, DNA methylation typically acts to repress gene transcription. DNA methylation is essential for normal development and is associated with a number of key processes including genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation, repression of repetitive elements, aging and carcinogenesis.
A bromodomain is an approximately 110 amino acid protein domain that recognizes acetylated lysine residues, such as those on the N-terminal tails of histones. Bromodomains, as the "readers" of lysine acetylation, are responsible in transducing the signal carried by acetylated lysine residues and translating it into various normal or abnormal phenotypes. Their affinity is higher for regions where multiple acetylation sites exist in proximity. This recognition is often a prerequisite for protein-histone association and chromatin remodeling. The domain itself adopts an all-α protein fold, a bundle of four alpha helices each separated by loop regions of variable lengths that form a hydrophobic pocket that recognizes the acetyl lysine.

As relatives, friends and neighbors of Bobby Stiles pitched in at the Breezy Point Campground and Bob's Septic Service this week, they all said the same thing.
They said he always had a smile on his face.
Stiles, 44, passed away last week in the emergency room at Jones Memorial Hospital. He and his wife, Charlene, ran the Breezy Point for the last five years or so. They also owned Bob's Septic Service. Since his death, relatives, friends and some seasonal campers have been helping out at both businesses. People have stopped by each day or whenever they could.
Charlene Stiles said her husband never wanted to charge a septic service customer for something that wasn't necessary.
"Just the way Bobby was ... we always treated people fairly,"?she said. "He was always courteous. When people called to have their tank pumped and it didn't need to be pumped, he was always very honest."
Butch Jackson, who lived across the road from the campground, said each would sometimes help with work on the other's property.
"He offered to pay me when he took over the campgrounds. I said no,"?Jackson said. "He was one of those guys who would give you the shirt off his back."
Jackson's wife, Kathy, said, "He had Butch dig holding tanks for him. We never asked for a dime.
"We always yelled at him to slow that truck down coming in here,"?Kathy Jackson recalled, jokingly.
Charlie Boom, Bobby Stiles' father-in-law, who was running the tractor earlier this week, said, "Bob was a great son-in-law, the kind of guy who would do anything for you."
Camper Don Mack said he remembered Stiles from Dresser-Rand in Wellsville, where Stiles worked for 17 years. Mack was working on the grounds earlier this week.
"I knew Bobby before he took over the campground. He was the personnel manager at the plant where I worked,"?Mack said. Mack said Stiles was good at handling labor negotiations on behalf of the plant.
"He was one of the few people in personnel the union ever had respect for," he said. "He knew when a little give-and-take was called for."
Emory Pulver was raking stones out of the dirt so seeds may be planted. He volunteered there to complete 10 hours of community service through his foster program. Pulver said he lives down the road from the campground. He said he heard about Stiles' passing through his foster mother and his bus driver, a Scio Central School District employee.
Penny Lehman, Charlene Stiles' sister, said a bunch of seasonal campers came in to weed, mow and clean lots. She said some students planned to come from Scio Central School, but were told their help wasn't needed.
"So many people came in last night (Tuesday) and did a lot,"?Lehman said. "Those kids were more than welcome to come up on a weekend other than a holiday weekend and have a free day."
Charlene Stiles said there were a lot of people and businesses to thank for the help they've given in the last few days. She said that list even includes a competitor of Bob's Septic Service — Dan Shea of Dan Shea Septic Tank Services of Wellsville.
"They're helping pump tanks to keep the septic in business,"?Charlene Stiles said.
She said the Beef Haus in Wellsville and the Wellsville Full Gospel Church both brought food earlier this week so volunteers working on the grounds could be fed.
"Kim Perkins, a waitress at the Beef Haus, has been for the last two days helping, running the business up here,"?Charlene Stiles said Tuesday. "People from the church have been bringing food up since Thursday (May 14).
"They didn't want me to do anything. They set it up, they tore it down. They left it here so we could put the luncheon on today (Tuesday)?for the people who are here,"?she said. "It's a blessing to have friends and family that?I have. So many cards and food and so much stuff has come up here. They've sent flowers right up here to the campgrounds."
"Some of them worked (Monday) while i was at the funeral. The Wellsville Full Gospel Church has hired someone to help me minimum one day a week, whenever I?need him," she said. "My cousin flew up from North?Carolina to stay with me also, so I wasn't alone."
Rose Derrick of the Wellsville Full Gospel Church said, "We got to know Bob and Charlene because they'd have a chapel service on Sunday mornings."
The service was for campers who were around Sunday mornings. People from the church took turns leading it, Derrick said.
Tammy Perkins, Charlene Stiles' sister, said Bobby and Charlene Stiles came over on Mother's Day to play cards and have dinner.
"We play pinochle, we play canasta, but we were playing canasta that night,"?Tammy Perkins said.
Tammy Perkins said her two daughters, Miranda Schildkamp Belgrave and Jessica Perkins, both miss their uncle very much.
"They both would tell you they love their uncle very much and he loved them,"?Tammy Perkins said. She said he would give her daughters hugs when he saw them. She remembers that if Jessica Perkins hugged her aunt but didn't turn "quickly enough"?to give her uncle a hug, he would say "Where's my hug?
"He was their only uncle who does that," Tammy Perkins said.
Lehman said, "Charlene and Bobby were a great team and they did everything together. They weren't just a couple. They were friends, a husband and wife."
Charlene Stiles said of her late husband, "I want everybody to know he was such a loving husband and a great father."

My year on strata council
by Miina Piir
I wish to provide a comment on having been a member of a strata council, as this is often a thankless task. I volunteered to be on my strata council because there were issues that our strata had to deal with. I started out as the Vice President, but early on the President had to resign due to health reasons, and I had to take on the job. I had an excellent team to work with, but we had our challenges.
First, I learned that I had to be conversant with the Strata Property Act (SPA) – the SPA was my bible. I have learned that stratas have difficulties because we are self-regulated. Owners will often follow the SPA when it is to their convenience, but when it is not they will ignore it. Some owners complain that the SPA is too difficult to understand, and others just do not take the time to understand it. Councils that do try and follow the SPA also encounter grief from owners who accuse them of being militant. As a result I firmly agree with VISOA's stance on two issues: One is the lack of a publicly available source of legislation interpretation to enable strata owners to operate their strata corporations according to the law. Two is the lack of access to an inexpensive dispute resolution mechanism.
Second, I learned that the term "Maintenance - Free Living" is not true. Someone has to do the work. I may not need to mow a lawn, fix a fence, or clean the gutters, but someone still has to take the time to make the phone calls and obtain quotes from contractors, and then council has to choose a service provider. Once a contractor is found, someone has to do the quality control and liaise with the contractor to ensure that the work is completed, and done to the standard agreed upon. Please remember to thank those who volunteer on your council – it is because of these volunteers stepping up to the plate that you enjoy "Maintenance-Free Living". This is especially true of self-managed stratas. If some maintenance is done by owner volunteers to help keep down the costs, be especially grateful for these people as the cost of contracted labor is very expensive and these individuals are saving you money.
Third, I learned that if you think strata bylaws or rules are too stringent
and believe that owners should be allowed to do as they like, maybe strata
living is not for you. I now realize why bylaws may allow only "white curtains" or "green furniture on patios or balconies". It is difficult to enforce a rule that has too many exceptions. Sometimes for the sake of ensuring ease of enforcement the rule must be strict. It is also important to remember that you share the strata property with others and to take into account that your personal tastes may not reflect those of other owners.
Fourth, I learned that alteration agreements are important. Why? It is to
protect all owners from future liability. If alteration/ improvements fail
they must be repaired and all damage caused must be made right. Ultimately the owners are all financially responsible in proportion to
their unit entitlement, if an individual cannot be held responsible. Sometimes insurance may be in effect to cover losses, but the deductible will be the responsibility of the owners.
Fifth, if I ever buy in another strata, I have learned to recognize that low strata fees may not necessarily be a good thing. I now know that the amount set aside in fees for the CRF is critical. I would rather pay more in fees now and know a greater portion went to the CRF, than have a levy in the future where I may be forced to have another mortgage. Yet I also know that in the long run what I pay really is not that much. The difference is that in a well run strata we are planning for the future, whereas if I owned a single home and did not do regular maintenance, I might be forced to get a loan if I had not planned ahead by saving for a rainy day.
Finally I have learned that it is our responsibility as owners, not just strata council, to be familiar with the SPA. I feel that many of the nightmare stories about councils occur because we as owners do not take the time to be conversant with the SPA, or owners pick and chose from the SPA what best fits their personal wants. I had my critics who were not on council. It
was interesting to observe that when our AGM came around, some of the owners who were the more persistent critics were unwilling to step up
and serve. Some owners would rather sit back and criticize and let others to
do the work instead of getting up and offering a helping hand. My sage advice to anyone who lives in a strata is: take the time to serve on council and understand the challenges. Then you will also understand the costs involved in running a strata, and the importance of compromising
individual interests for the sake of the other owners in the strata. Take
the time to read the SPA. It is one of your responsibilities as an owner. If
you find that the rules of strata living are too strict, maybe strata living really is not your cup of tea. I do not regret the time I have served on council, because it has helped me to get to know other owners better, and to know those owners who truly care about their strata. I know I am not the only one who wants to ensure that we continue to be well-managed.

See how one of the best photo retouch studios works in Photoshop.
Photographic retouching studios that work in fashion and editorial are usually cagey about the work they get up to. While car and beer brands are usually happy for studios to show the craftsmanship that goes into compositing elements together for a billboard or magazine spread, the fashion industry likes to pretend that those shots you see were created in-camera – not Photoshop.
So it's great to see these four videos from New York-based Rare, whose clients include luxury lifestyle magazines and brands from Vogue and Harper's Bazaar to Tiffany and Tom Ford.
Of course, the work these time-lapse videos feature by Rare's founder Elizabeth Moss aren't likely to be from big brand campaigns – but the work on show is impressively crafted. The video above shows the most in-depth work – six hours of retouching condensed to 90 seconds – with the videos below showing 90 minutes and four hours work, plus a montage of different projects.

How to Place a Bid on Legal Bistro
Bid-for-Placement: what does it mean? Why do we need it?
A bid is a sum of money that a lawyer offers for the opportunity of talking to a client, to receive his contact information and discuss his case (the minimum amount you can bid on is 6 law dollars).
It's important to remember that a lawyer's bid on a case determines where in the list of competing, "bidding" lawyers their profile will be displayed to the clients, who posted the case. The profile with the highest bid will be displayed first and the lowest, respectively, the last.
Writing an Effective Biography on Legal Bistro Helps Attorneys Get New Clients!
Why should a lawyer bother to write an outstanding biography and why is it the most important part of the lawyer profile? It's so simple!
A bio is a snapshot of a lawyer's professional experience:
who they are,
what they do,
specialist expertise and
examples of client work.
A good biography "sells" their expertise to potential new clients.
Legal Bistro Elevator Pitch for Lawyers
What is an Elevator Pitch?
An "Elevator Pitch", also known as an elevator speech or statement, is a short summary used to quickly define a person, product, profession or organization and its Value Proposition. The name "elevator pitch" conveys that the person who is delivering the message has about the same time that it takes the typical elevator to go from the ground floor the top floor to convince their audience about their proposal. A well designed elevator pitch should be between 30 and 60 seconds.
How to Write a Good Elevator Pitch
The "Elevator Pitch" on Legal Bistro is five lines (500 words maximum) of text that are displayed to potential clients in what we call the "Short Profile Preview". This is the very first thing that a potential client will see about you and your law firm so you should give a lot of thought to what you would like to say.
Why Consumers Love Legal Bistro
Do you need a lawyer but are intimidated by the legal process? Are you concerned that professional legal services may be financially out of reach? Perhaps English is not your native language and you are having trouble finding a qualified attorney with whom you can effectively communicate. Don't worry, if you answered yes to any of these questions you are not alone.
We built Legal Bistro because we were inspired by the contribution that Lending Tree made to the process for finding a mortgage lender. Lending Tree used the power of the Internet to bring online competition in the mortgage application process. Equally important is that Lending Tree's website has helped consumers to better understand the process of applying for a home loan. We hope that Legal Bistro can achieve similar results in the legal services market.
When Lawyers Compete, You Win!
The single biggest reason why consumers love our service is because Legal Bistro facilitates lawyers competing online to serve the client. Our Company motto is that When Lawyers Compete, the Client Wins! Frankly, we believe that both lawyers and consumers win when the competitive playing field has been leveled.
Why Lawyers Love Legal Bistro
Are you happy with the current Return on Investment ("ROI") for your online legal services marketing dollars? Are you spending too much of your time qualifying leads? Do you know anything about the visitors to your law firm's website besides their IP Address and the date and time of their visit? More specifically, are you being provided with case specific facts that will help you evaluate their legal needs?
If you have answered yes to some or all of these questions then perhaps you will appreciate why lawyers love Legal Bistro.
You decide what cases you see based on the Practice Groups, Case Types and Tag or Key Words used when defining your Areas of Practice.

How Good are the "Self Help" Legal Websites? Consumer Report Verdict
In a September Report issued by Consumer Reports entitled Legal DIY websites are no match for a pro, the verdict was that unless your legal needs are very simple it would be best to consult a lawyer as doing it yourself can lead to "unintended consequences". Consumer Reports evaluated the three big Do It Yourself Legal Websites – LegalZoom, Nolo, and Rocket Lawyer to create a will, a car bill of sale for a seller, a home lease for a small landlord, and a promissory note.
Three law professors—Gerry W. Beyer of Texas Tech University School of Law, who specializes in estates and trusts; Richard K. Neumann of Hofstra University, a contract specialist; and Norman Silber, an expert in consumer and commercial law at Hofstra and Yale—to review in a blind test the processes and resulting documents.
Bottom line. The sites offer basic legal advice that might help save you money spent on a lawyer. If you use them for document prep, at minimum get all needed signatures to preserve your rights and prevent disputes, Silber says. But many consumers are better off consulting a lawyer. The websites let you search for one and provide such information as education, background, and licenses.

Interview: The Descendents' Bill Stevenson
The punk drumming pioneer speaks out on a recent health scare, his stint in Black Flag, his songwriting history and more.
Mon Sep 12 2011
Photograph: Craig Cameron Olsen
The Descendents play Roseland Ballroom on Friday, September 23. We recently spent some time on the phone with the band's super-friendly drummer Bill Stevenson.
These days, the Descendents seem to play more one-off festival gigs than full-on tours. How do you decide when to fire up the band again?
We go through periods of just blatant inactivity, and then we fairly whimsically just decide to start doing some shows. But because of the logistics of getting the four of us together, we seem to have bettter luck doing little weekends. You know, several of us have, quote, "real jobs"—Milo's job being very, very real, he's a biochemist at DuPont. And I guess in a way my day job, as it were, has become fairly real. I seem to have begun to lean on record producing quite a bit, although I still definitely do my fair share of drumming and songwriting. And so you throw those jobs into a pot of logistic stew along with everyone having wives and families and also the fact that we live in three different states... The bottom line is, we just get together whenever it's convenient for all of us, and as long as we continue to do it that way, then it's always fun.
So much of your material is really demanding technically, like "Myage," with all those speedy drum rolls. Are there certain songs that you dread going back to after a break?
It's just a matter of getting up to speed with the particular maneuvers of those particular songs and definitely, as you mentioned, "Myage" being one of them. I mean, without entering the realm of technical metal, "Myage" is probably the most demanding punk-rock song there ever was [Laughs].
However, in 2009 and 2010, as you may or may not have known, I became very ill. I almost died. I had a pulmonary embolism and a brain tumor. So it took me some time to get back in the swing after that, but actually, it was funny: I was playing so poorly in 2009 because of the brain tumor that in late 2010, once they took the brain tumor out, I just started shredding again instantly. I was like, "Wow, this is so easy now!" It kinda threw me back to when I was 19 or 20. And I know people that have seen us over 25 or 30 years, like when we were just in England, are like, "I can't believe you're playing like that!" And I'm like, "Yeah, I can't believe it either! I'm lucky I didn't die!"
So are the health issues entirely behind you?
You never know about health, but as far as those issues I had, yeah, I kicked the ass of every one of them.There were four, but they all stemmed from one, which was a brain tumor. The brain tumor rendered me unmotivated, unemotional and inactive, so that brought about tremendous weight gain, which brought about the pulmonary embolism, which is a blood clot that travels from wherever its origin was up in through your heart, smashes into your heart and then you die. Only I didn't die; my heart pushed it through and into my lungs. So the brain tumor caused that. Once I got really big, up to 400 pounds, then it caused diabetes and it also caused sleep apnea because I was so big that my throat airways were closing up when I was sleeping. Any of those things could have killed me, but as it turns out, I killed all of those four things, and I'm totally great now.
Your lyrics have always dealt head-on with different issues in your life, whether it's your father's passing or the challenges of parenthood. Do you feel like there will be some material in all of these health problems?
I think it may end up in my lyrics, but not overtly. I always make this comparison about my lyrics: Ian MacKaye wrote "Straight Edge," right? And I wrote "Bikeage," where I'm clearly making a statement about substance abuse, but I'm not doing it in an overt way; I'm doing it in a way that was very personal to me because someone I knew was being affected by that stuff. So like with my other lyrics, the fact that I went through this health stuff, that'll affect my lyrics, but it won't be like, "Here's my songs about my brain tumor." I'm not like that, you know?
Speaking of the lyrics, you mentioned the longevity of the band, and obviously in the early days, you were writing from an adolescent perspective. Do you come to a point where you have a hard time relating to some of the older songs?
By and large, I think they stand the test of time. These songs reflected a mood that I was in on that day that I wrote it. I had boiled over to some point where I said, "Okay, I have something to say and I'm gonna write it down." So when we're playing it, I may not be in that mood right now at this minute, but I still remember that mood. I remember that it was very real to me. And even in the years that I did write one of those songs, I may not have been in that mood even a month later, but still, it went down and that was the time and place, and it really happened. And the fact that they did really happen, that they weren't made-up little blurbs of poetry, I think that prevents them from being dated as far, as my psychology goes.
Do you feel like any of the older songs took on even greater meaning later in life?
That happens too. The other day, we were playing "My Dad Sucks," and we were like, We gotta change this to "My Kid Sucks." None of us even have dads anymore, they're all dead! We were just joking, of course. But there are some of them where they can ring true in a whole different way. Even like "Suburban Home," which our original bassist, Tony Lombardo, wrote: I went through a period where I was in a big, huge house and starting to collect—you know, George Carlin talks about your stuff owning you—and it's like, Fuck all that. I got rid of all my stuff last year, and now I'm living in a small house. So "Suburban Home" rings true anew, as does "I Don't Wanna Grow Up." When you just get released from jail by them taking a tumor out of your head, you wanna frolic through the waves and the daisies.
Looking back on the Descendents/All catalog, one thing that struck me is that the really lighthearted stuff has always sat right beside the really heavy, serious stuff on your records. Did you guys think about the power of placing those two kinds of emotions right up against each other?
Again, it's back to just the natural course of things. When you wake up in the morning, by the time you finish your first two cups of coffee, in that 30-minute period, you've run the gamut between feeling overjoyed, feeling pissed off, feeling sad about something, feeling surprisingly relieved about something. That's part of every hour that every human lives, is that—I'm not gonna call it schizophrenia—but just that change of color within your psychology. So isn't it natural for those songs to all be next to each other like that? Nobody's mad all the time, and in that way, I can't really get my head around some of the dark metal stuff. And nobody's happy all the time either, so with the happy ska thing, it's like, Aaargh, get away!
Did you feel like that duality was what was missing from the hardcore movement at large and that you were reacting against that with Descendents?
We weren't really reacting against it. Like with "Weinerschnitzel," we drove through Wienerschnitzel, and I got my chili-cheese dog and my fries and everything, and when we drove out the other side of it, our friend Pat McCuistion's like, "Yeah, we should have a song about Wienerschnitzel!" We weren't thinking about what other bands are doing. We were very insular—in some ways we lived in our own little vacuum.
It must have been interesting to move from the lightheartedness of the Descendents to Black Flag, especially the period when you were in the band, when that dark, nihilistic thing was so dominant.
Yeah, and that's something that I never quite embraced 100 percent about that era of the band. Well, there were a few things: One, I didn't like that fact that there was this whole, like, "Let's smoke pot and play slow" thing, because I don't like smoking pot and I don't like playing slow. [Laughs] That wasn't right for me. But also, if you think about the first couple batches of Black Flag material, you've got "TV Party"; you've got "Wasted"; even "Nervous Breakdown," there's a high sense of humor there, and then it kind of went away.
I mean, I liked playing in Black Flag. I just think that when something's that belabored and focused on negative self-introspection, to me that's almost like an arrogance or a self-centeredness in its own way, like, Hey everybody, come into my never-ending pit of depression. It's like, Well, no—I don't want to come in! When you start to feel better come give me a call. [Laughs]
One thing that I've always admired about you is that you've been a songwriter as well as a drummer since the beginning of the band. Did you have a sense early on that you wanted to contribute in that way?
I don't remember the agenda exactly. I think it went like this: Me and Frank Navetta would go fishing, and he was like, "I play guitar, and I have a band I'm trying to start." So we started playing together, and I noticed that he had written songs, which were our first songs that we played as Descendents. And I was like, Whoa, he writes these songs?!? That's crazy. Someone that I know can write a song. Okay, cool! So my neighbor was throwing away this hollow-bodied bass that was kind of beat up, and it was sticking out of his trash can on trash day. So I went over there and grabbed it out and wrote "Myage." So I don't know if there was a plan, but yeah, the first time I put finger to instrument, I wrote "Myage," and I wrote "Bikeage" a couple weeks later.

About the Talk
June 16, 2015 10:35 AM
Charleston, SCCharleston, SC
Collaboration requires us to share our work; to communicate our ideas with one another and to collect other's thoughts to know whether the designs we're producing are meeting the objectives of the project.
But often we wrestle with collecting feedback.
We get comments that are less then helpful because they seem irrelevant or unclear. Or we find that we're getting feedback and reactions at inopportune times rather than points in the process where they would have been useful in informing design decisions.
Our ability to critique speaks directly to the quality of the conversations we have with teammates, whether they be designers, developers, stakeholders, etc. Designers frequently complain about the quality and uselessness of the feedback they are given, but we rarely examine our own processes to identify how to collect useful feedback and make the discussions around our designs more productive.
In This Talk…
We'll explore critique as both an activity and an aspect of any communication or collaboration. Attendees will walk away with:
- A clearer understanding of critique is and why asking for "feedback" is problematic.
- Methods for gathering useful feedback from clients and teammates.
- Ideas on how to introduce team members to the idea of critique and get everyone using it.
- An understanding of where critique fits within the design processes and how to incorporate it into projects.

Welcome to Cedar Hill Farmhouse!! Come on in and let me pour you a warm drink.
This is home #25 on the All Things Home Christmas Tour, and I'm sharing my Christmas decorations with you today.
I want to share with you how I made my house look very festive and welcoming for Christmas without spending much as all. I have a little secret. I can't believe I'm saying this out loud.
I don't buy Christmas decorations any more. Shhhh, I know that heresy in the blog world. I don't like spending money on Christmas decorations because they have to be stored for 11 months out of the year, and they are often expensive yet poorly made.
So my 'fancy' tree is a sapling from the farm. The snowflake ornaments are paper doilies.
Notice my little Charlie Brown tree sits in a vintage enamelware pail with an Ikea tea towel draped over it. The pail and towel can be used year round because they aren't Christmas specific. Also note that I used a lot of holiday ribbon which is an inexpensive way to add holiday touches to a room.
Notice lots of free greenery and inexpensive ribbon was used to spruce up this room.
I do have some Christmas items in the room, but these were purchased years ago.
The living room also was decorated with basically what I had on hand and newly purchased Christmas ribbon.
I made the linen stockings on the mantle last year. More greenery here and ribbon abound here. Also note that I used a vintage family sled for our coffee table.
My Christmas votive holders were made this year. I'll share more about those in the Scoop on a handmade Christmas next week.
My tree is a real Norfolk Pine. To give it some height I put it in an olive bucket on top of a stool. The stool is wrapped in a coffee bag.
The tree is covered with little mini stockings I made last year from vintage grain sacks.
I added ribbon anywhere it looked bare.
Later I decided to move the sled over to the island, just so you know I don't have two in the house. What more greenery and ribbon? But I think you get the point.
I like to have a tray setting here above the range, so for this season I am using a green one with of course my signature red and white ribbon I am using this year. I can change the tray out with the seasons as I like.
Above the breakfast room table.. more ribbon, who knew?
Here's a close up of what I had on my 'coffee table'. Note that most of what you see isn't seasonal at all; it just becomes seasonal with greenery and ribbon.
So I hope I proved my point that with just a few simple inexpensive items you can transform you home into a Christmas wonderland. This year the only Christmas items I bought were ribbon and the Christmas tree. For Thanksgiving I decorated with a few pumpkins and some fresh flowers. You can see what I did, here. And I think you know what direction I'll be headed with Valentine's Day!

Stop Chasing Content, Build an RFP Database
Instead of chasing answers and requested information, sales professionals, and others who respond to RFPs and other sales critical questionnaires, must have easy access to the right information!
At the core of RFP and sales proposal automation solutions, you will find an RFP database, or sales content library, through which you can manage sales-ready information—including answers to client questionnaires and content for sales proposals, sales presentations, statements of work, and other deliverables.
What Are Your Content Challenges?
- Do you navigate through a collection of folders and documents until you find an acceptable answer?
- Or worse case, do you search through past RFPs and proposals for content to repurpose?
- Are you a slave to copy and paste?
- Do you consistently deliver accurate and compliant response documents and proposals? If yes, are you successful because the compliance team has to work double-time reviewing answers?
- With the launch of new products and product updates, does the team have easy access to a collection of sales-ready information?
- Finally, do you make it easy for all team members to deliver selling documents that are correctly branded to your organization?
The absence of a managed RFP database, or sales content library, creates pain for sales, marketing, and proposal professionals—and threatens the team's sales performance.
It's Time to Take Control!
By managing all content in RFP database, you improve productivity throughout the organization, as well as sales effectiveness.
Stop the chase—and support the pursuit of delivering selling documents that put your team a winning position.
SalesEdge has helped hundreds of organizations build RFP database with sales-ready information. Let us show you how.

Perovskite solar cells – Promises and expectations for the third-generation PV technologyOctober 21, 2019Since their invention 10 years ago, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have shown a dramatic increase in conversion efficiency compared with other so-called third-generation solar cells. In 2018, some laboratory tests found that a single-junction PSC cell could reach up to 23% efficiency. Its technology has benefited from developments carried out for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) and organic solar cells (OSC), also called organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells.

PV inverter suppliers develop digital energy solutionsJanuary 26, 2018SMA announced last week that it would set up a digital energy solution subsidiary named Coneva, a move that is a natural stepping stone to diversifying its business and expanding its customer base. Along with its existing business units such as energy storage, off-grid/hybrid and now a digital solutions company, it has a clear roadmap for 2018 to transition its business to a digital world. This move is particularly pertinent when the PV inverter competitive landscape is still crowded and pure-play PV inverter suppliers such as SMA are trying to gain a competitive advantage over its larger industrial competitors such as ABB, GE, Siemens, Schneider Electric and Huawei. In this insight, IHS Markit aims to explain the meaning behind this move to establish a subsidiary and why they are launching it in Q1 2018.Subscribers Only
