Finally, we have four residents who will graduate from Eden House in the late Spring and early Summer. These residents have worked hard to complete our two-year program and are ready to enter the world on their own. They are in need of furniture for their new homes, including chairs, couches, tables, dressers and beds. We are also in need of a storage facility in order to keep furniture that has been donated for our residents while they complete the program.
We always welcome individuals and groups who are willing to give their time to help Eden House. We currently need volunteers who can serve as handy people and help with maintenance on the house. Contact our office at (504) 407-0943 if you have maintenance skills you think Eden House could use.
The staff and residents of Eden House are always grateful for donations, both in-kind and financial.

So many of us would like to be able to sleep better, and we often short change ourselves by not getting enough sleep. But it's really important to put sleep at the top of your priorities. It's just so important for a healthy and happy life, in fact science has now proved the adequate sleep is vital for many of the body and brains functions. When we don't sleep well we reduce the body's innate healing and restoring capabilities.
Preparing the mind and body for sleep is key. So here's 5 top tips that I have gathered (and personally tried in my quest for sleep) to aid your journey to the land of nod.
1) Turn off the tech Stop all work and screen based activities at least one hour before bed. So sneaking a check of your phone in bed. Science has now proven the blue light emitted by our computers, phones and tablets stimulate our brains and so keeping us awake. That means trying a paper book rather than a kindle in bed is a good option too. Shutting off all screens an hour before bed allows the body to release its natural sleep inducing hormones.
Also giving the mind sufficient time to wind down after work is vital. Otherwise we go to bed wired and wonder why our brain is still in problem solving mode when we are trying to sleep.
2) Take a bath Taking a bath can be a great way to warm and sooth the body before bed, and soak away tension. Adding essential oils such as lavender can be gorgeous, as lavender is deeply relaxing and helps to prepare you for sleep. You can also add a few drops of lavender to your pillow to continue the benefits.
Magnesium can be a great insomniacs tool, it's know as 'natures valium' and you can simply add magnesium-rich Epsom salts (buy from your local chemists) to gain the benefits. Or alternatively buy a Magnesium Oil Spray (such as BetterYou Goodnight Spray).
3) Enjoy a night time drink No not a whiskey before bed (sorry), try instead a soothing and calming chamomile tea. Or there are special 'sleep tea' blends available, containing ingredients like lavender, chinese red tea, chamomile and rose (try yourtea.com) If you really struggle sleeping don't drink caffeine after lunchtime (or at all), and no dark chocolate in the evening either (sorry).
4) Do a Body Scan Once you get into bed (after turning off the tech, taking a bath and having a brew!) you can try a really simple body scan exercise. Lie on your back in a comfortable way, close your eyes and start to bring your awareness to each part of your body in turn. Starting from the crown of your head and pausing to check what you feel there, and slowly moving your attention all the way down through your body, finishing with your toes. It gives your mind a focus so it doesn't get drawn back into your thoughts and the busyness of your day, and it's deeply relaxing for the body.
You can try a recorded guided body scan I've recorded (sometimes when you start with this technique it's easier to be guided through it) http://www.yogaformodernlife.com/audio-downloads/ You can listen via the link, or download it for free.
5) Try Breath counting Counting the breath backwards is one of my favourite (and most often employed) techniques for getting to sleep / back to sleep. I first learned this practice from Erich Schiffman wonderful book "Yoga - The Spirit & Practice of Moving into Stillness." You can also use it if you wake in the night and need to get back to sleep. I found it especially useful when I had small (and not so small) waking babies constantly breaking my sleep (and my sanity!).
You simply count backward from fifty to zero, synchronizing the counting with your breathing. You'll count the even numbers as you exhale and the odd numbers as you inhale. Lie comfortably in bed, and begin by breathing in gently and fully. As you exhale, mentally say "50." As you breathe in again, mentally say "49," exhale "48," inhale "47," exhale "46" ... and so on. Then when you reach "20," count only on the exhales. Silently count "20" as you exhale. Then, instead of counting "19" on the in-breath, do nothing, just inhale. With the next exhalation count "19" ... and so on until you reach zero.
When you reach zero, stop counting, but stay aware of the natural flow of breath in exactly the same way as when you were counting. In all likelihood you'll be asleep before you reach zero but if not, or if you loose your place, simply start again at 50. As you do this exercise breathe normally, do not control the breath in any way. Allow it to flow freely in and out at its own natural pace, yet softly stay aware of the breath.. There should be no strain in your breathing as you do this. Keep it soft and easy.
I hope these tips help you in your quest for sleep. If you would like any more yoga postures to practice before bed, check out the blog post http://www.yogaformodernlife.com/blog/yogaforsleep

month, I introduced Segoe UI, the new user interface font for Office 12 and
Windows Vista.
Of course, you spend most of your time in Office not looking at the user
interface, but working with documents. Times New Roman has been Word's
default font since Word 6.0 introduced support for TrueType fonts. Although there are numerous other options available, most documents today
are produced in Times New Roman, Arial, or more recently the Web-friendly choice Verdana.
Office 12 ships with six brand new fonts designed for use with the content in
your document. Each of the fonts is optimized for ClearType and suitable
for use both on-screen and in printed documents.
Below, courtesy of Microsoft's Advanced Reading Technology team, are pictures of
the six new fonts along with brief descriptions of each font.
Consolas is aimed for use in programming environments and other
circumstances where a monospaced font is specified. All characters have the
same width, like old typewriters, making it a good choice for personal and
business correspondence. The improved Windows font display allowed a design
with proportions closer to normal text than traditional monospaced fonts
like Courier. This allows for more comfortably reading of extended text on
screen. OpenType features include hanging or lining numerals; slashed,
dotted and normal zeros; and alternative shapes for a number of lowercase
letters. The look of text can be tuned to personal taste by varying the
number of bars and waves.
Calibri is a modern sans serif family with subtle roundings on stems
and corners. It features real italics, small caps, and multiple numeral
sets. Its proportions allow high impact in tightly set lines of big and
small text alike. Calibri's many curves and the new rasteriser team up in
bigger sizes to reveal a warm and soft character.
Cambria has been designed for on-screen reading and to look good when
printed at small sizes. It has very even spacing and proportions. Diagonal
and vertical hairlines and serifs are relatively strong, while horizontal
serifs are small and intend to emphasize stroke endings rather than stand
out themselves. This principle is most noticeable in the italics where the
lowercase characters are subdued in style to be at their best as elements of
word-images. When Cambria is used for captions at sizes over 20 point, the
inter-character spacing should be slightly reduced for best results. The
design isn't just intended for business documents: The regular weight has
been extended with a large set of math and science symbols. The Greek and
Cyrillic has been designed under close supervision of an international team
of experts, who aimed to set a historical new standard in multi-script type
Constantia is a modulated wedge-serif typeface designed primarily for
continuous text in both electronic and paper publishing. The design responds
to the recent narrowing of the gap between screen readability and
traditional print media, exploiting specific aspects of the most recent
advances in ClearType rendering, such as sub-pixel positioning. The classic
proportions of relatively small x-height and long extenders make Constantia
ideal for book and journal publishing, while the slight squareness and open
counters ensure that it remains legible even at small sizes.
Corbel is designed to give an uncluttered and clean appearance on
screen. The letter forms are open with soft, flowing curves. It is legible,
clear and functional at small sizes. At larger sizes the detailing and style
of the shapes is more apparent resulting in a modern sans serif type with a
wide range of possible uses.
Candara is a casual humanist sans with verticals showing a graceful
entasis on stems, high-branching arcades in the lowercase, large apertures
in all open forms, and unique ogee curves on diagonals. The resultant
texture is lively but not intrusive, and makes for a friendly and readable

Learning to Decipher Food Labels will better Balance Nutrients in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients/
Utilizing nutritional labels on food products can be frustrating because they are difficult to understand, and apply to your specialized renal diet. Learning how to understand nutritional labels on food products can be very helpful in balancing your diet and making it easier to comply with your treatment plan. In order to reduce the time you spend deciphering the nutritional facts on food labels, KidneyBuzz.com has provided you a list of essential nutrients and their recommended values.
- Cholesterol: The American Heart Association recommends limiting intake of cholesterol to 300 milligrams or less daily.
- Potassium: Food with more than 200 milligrams per serving is considered high in potassium.
- Sodium: If your serving of food is greater than 300 milligrams then it is considered to be high in sodium.
- Phosphorus: Foods that are high in phosphorus will have a serving size in excess of 160 milligrams.
- Total carbohydrate - The recommended allowance of daily carbohydrates is 130 grams.
- Protein: Daily intake of protein is dependent on whether you are on a high protein diet, or low protein diet. However, the average recommended daily consumption of protein is about 56 grams for men and 46 grams for women.
- Trans Fat - It is advised to consume as little trans fats as possible. The ideal amount of trans fats are in fact 0 grams per day. Often times this is not possible, so KidneyBuzz.com recommends that you limit your intake of this fat as much as possible.
- Saturated Fat - It is advisable to limit your saturated fat to 20 grams or less per day.
- Total Fat: This is a combination of trans, polyunsaturated, monounsaturated, and saturated fats. Note that companies are compelled to list trans fat and saturated fat on labels, and total fat should account for 20-30% of your total caloric intake.
Unfortunately, if you have CKD or are on dialysis, the drawback to food labeling is that it is optional for manufacturers to display the amount of potassium and phosphorus contents, and these are among the most important dietary concerns you have. If you have a question regarding one of those minerals, ask your dietitian or call the manufacturer directly, whose number is listed on the product label. Also, a lot of fast food restaurants will give you nutritional information about their meals upon your request. For further information about nutritional label updates, you can contact the Food and Drug Administration at: 1-888-Info-FDA (1-888-463-6332).
Additionally, you can download many apps for your smartphone or other devices which make it easier to track your food intake throughout the day, and to use real-time data to make decisions about your kidney diet.

It's a blustery day here in Idaho
and I'm cleaning the house like a mad woman
getting ready for our foster care home study later this week.
So many emotions whirling around in my little head
we've been preparing for this for just about a year
but I can't help but wonder
"are we really ready?"
what a giant leap to make
to go from just the two of us
to possibly 5!
That's the way life is though...
and I'm sure we will manage this new adventure
with the same spirit and teamwork
as we always have
Speaking of adventures -
Our very own Big Red has been featured by
an amazing blog from a young couple
who have thrown out conventional ideas about settling down
in the pursuit of finding the perfect place to call home.
I can't imagine living full time on the road
but who knows maybe Tiffany and her man
are onto something?
I mean if you can survive months on end in a travel trailer
it seems to me like your marriage could survive just about anything!
Not to mention how many of us end up living somewhere
we really don't belong?
Be it family or the ol' ball in chain, aka your job
most of us never really got the opportunity
to find that place where we really belong.
I know all to well what that is like -
We ended up in Portland, Oregon
because of family and job opportunities
we purchased a home and thought we would be happy
but before long
we were just pretending...
and so when we got the chance
we made a decision
to try something new
and we are so much happier
but I can only imagine what we might have found
if we had taken a similar road as Tiffany and her husband
and tried to find our "perfect match".
Anywho - there's some food for thought :)
If you have been dying to learn more about Big Red
this post really has a lot of great information :D
In other news:
I put together a special look in celebration
of Paper*Cakes Finds 2nd Birthday
Gosh, I can't believe how time flies,
seems like just yesterday Chelsea
was sharing her idea with me about this new blog.
I'm so proud of what Chelsea has put together
its such a special blog
helping to shine a light
on so many amazing and talented people!
& perhaps exciting for some of you...

What People are Saying About This
The novel that cries out for the stage has gotten the stage. The story is beautifully adapted and acted.
The New York Post
So we open Jane Eyre... The writer has us by the hand, forces us along her road, makes us see what she sees, never leaves us for a moment or allows us to forget her. At the end we are steeped through and through with the genius, the vehemence, the indignation of Charlotte Bronte.... It is the red and fitful glow of the heart's fire which illuminates her page.

Praise for Penguin Drop Caps:
"[Penguin Drop Caps] convey a sense of nostalgia for the tactility and aesthetic power of a physical book and for a centuries-old tradition of beautiful lettering."
—Fast Company
"Vibrant, minimalist new typographic covers…. Bonus points for the heartening gender balance of the initial selections."
—Maria Popova, Brain Pickings
"The Penguin Drop Caps series is a great example of the power of design. Why buy these particular classics when there are less expensive, even free editions of Great Expectations? Because they're beautiful objects. Paul Buckley and Jessica Hische's fresh approach to the literary classics reduces the design down to typography and color. Each cover is foil-stamped with a cleverly illustrated letterform that reveals an element of the story. Jane Austen's A (Pride and Prejudice) is formed by opulent peacock feathers and Charlotte Bronte's B (Jane Eyre) is surrounded by flames. The complete set forms a rainbow spectrum prettier than anything else on your bookshelf."
—Rex Bonomelli, The New York Times
"Classic reads in stunning covers—your book club will be dying."
Reading Group Guide
1. In Jane Eyre, nothing can better show a man's moral worth than the way in which he treats the women in his life. How is Rochester's character reflected in the way he treats Jane, Adele, Bertha Mason, and Miss Ingram, and in his reported treatment of Celine Varens? How is St. John's character reflected in the way he treats Jane, Miss Oliver, and Diana and Mary? Why does this serve as such a good gauge of a man's morality and worth? What other relationships serve similar functions in the novel?
2. Throughout the novel, questions of identity are raised. From her identity as an orphan and stranger in the hostile environment of Gateshead Hall to that of a ward of the church at Lowood; from her being a possible wife of Rochester, then of St. John, to being the cousin of Diana and Mary, Jane is constantly in transition. Trace these changes in identity and how they affect Jane's view of herself and the world around her. Describe the final discovery of her identity that becomes apparent in the last chapter of the novel and the events that made that discovery possible.
3. Throughout the novel, Charlotte Brontë uses biblical quotes and religious references. From the church-supported school she attended that was run by Mr. Brocklehurst to the offer of marriage she receives from St. John, she is surrounded by aspects of Christianity. How does this influence her throughout her development? How do her views of God and Christianity change from her days as a young girl to the end of the novel? How is religion depicted in the novel, positively or negatively?
4. Many readers of Jane Eyre feel that the story is composed of two distinct parts, different in tone and purpose. Thefirst part (chapters 1-11) concerns her childhood at Gateshead and her life at Lowood; the second part is the remainder of the story. Is creating such a division justified? Is there a genuine difference of tone and purpose between the two sections as they have been described? Some critics and readers have suggested that the first part of Jane Eyre is more arresting because it is more directly autobiographical. Do you find this to be true?
5. Upon publication, great speculation arose concerning the identity of the author of Jane Eyre, known only by the pen name Currer Bell. Questions as to the sex of the author were raised, and many critics said that they believed it to be the work of a man. One critic of her time said, "A book more unfeminine, both in its excellence and defects, it would be hard to find in the annals of female authorship. Throughout there is masculine power, breadth and shrewdness, combined with masculine hardness, coarseness, and freedom of expression." Another critic of the day, Elizabeth Rigby, said that if it was the product of a female pen, then it was the writing of a woman "unsexed." Why was there such importance placed on the sex of the author and why was it questioned so readily? What does it mean that people believed it to be the product of a man rather than of a woman?
6. Scenes of madness and insanity are among the most important plot devices in Jane Eyre. From the vision Jane sees when locked in the bedroom at Gateshead to her hearing the "goblin laughter" she attributes to Grace Poole, to the insanity and wretchedness of Bertha Mason, madness is of central importance to the plot and direction of the story. Give examples of madness in the text, and show how they affect the reader's understanding of the character experiencing the madness and how these examples affect the reader's understanding of the characters witnessing it.
7. There is probably no single line in the whole of Jane Eyre that has, in itself, attracted as much critical attention as the first line of the last chapter: "Reader, I married him." Why is the phrasing of this line so important? How would the sense be different-for the sentence and for the novel as a whole-if the line read, "Reader, we were married"?

I handed it to my teacher and gushed, 'it was beautiful, so beautiful!' 'it was her copy' so if your some random person looking to see if this book is good, IT IS. If a kid as younge as me can appreciate it fully, you have to understand how utterly perfect it is! Read read! ^ ^
I read this book for my AP English class; we all kind of dreaded it whe we first heard. I was once told by a friend that it was horrible and that I should never, ever read it. I did, anyway, and I was thoroughly surprised and I enjoyed every bit of it! Knowing very little about the plot (I'd only been told there's a crazy person in an attic --- which I forgot about), or even Bronte's writing style, I read the first ten chapters with shock and awe that the story was about a ten-year-old. Although the entire book is not about a ten-year-old, I was quickly taken with the plot and characters and just descriptions of England at that time. This book read quickly with alternately likeable and despicable characters, unusual language, and beautiful plot. My only complaint is that one character, Adele, speaks chiefly in French. I was lucky enough to be taking French classes while reading this, so I could piece together what she was essentially saying. What she says is not of a whole lot of importance, but it does bring the book to a halt at times. All in all, Jane Eyre exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds and I enjoyed reading it immensely.
Jane Eyre is quite possibly one of my favorite books, one that I have read many times. I bought this edition because I thought the cover was pretty and the fantastic price. Bronte's original text is flawless (although Hindustani is spelled differently in my other copy)I give Bronte 5 stars, however, the introduction by Joyce Carol Oates is terrible. I found it choppy and not that relevant to the story. I don't believe for two seconds that Bertha Mason's insanity was caused by syphilis. I just don't. I also don't buy that Jane thinks human love is more important than God. If she did why did she spend so much time on her knees in prayer? Not one summary, review or movie version I have seen of this story acknowledges any sort of higher power in a non nutcase way. What a shame, I think Bronte should get more credit and less speculation. Let's just take it in the context she wished. I feel better after venting my opinions, bottom line if you want a good copy of Jane Eyre this will work, just ignore the introduction.
Jane Eyre is one of those books you can start anywhere anytime and get so incredibly caught up in the story that you never want to stop reading. I've read this book more than fifteen times and have written multiple research papers on it. The characters are well developed, even smaller ones. Jane is a very strong female character, as is Mr. Rochester. The love story between the two does not dominate Jane's character; she remains true to herself regardless of the situation. This truly is a novel written for all women and should be read by all.
If you're a fan of historical romances such as Pride & Prejudice, Becoming Jane, or Sense & Sensibility you would be depriving yourself of experiencing the beauty of this story by not reading it. I can't wait to see the newest version in theaters!! Please read this and be patient with it's lengthy beginning.. I promise it gets better :) -ash
This book was a bit slow through the first half, but once it gets past Jane's childhood it becomes fascinating and was actually hard to put down. I was amazed by Brontë's vocabulary, writing style, and ability to create such an intriguing and original plot. This is the kind of book that makes you really feel for the characters and get lost in the adventures of their lives. Right when you think you know what's going to happen, Jane Eyre surprises you and another twist to the plot comes in. By the end of the book, I really respected Jane's character and was glad that everything turned out in a way that she liked and had not expected. This is a great classic -- read it!
Jane Eyre is one of the best classic romance novels I have ever read. As we follow Jane through her harshly brought up childhood to the challenges of her adulthood, we see not only the development of her identity but also the merging of minds between herself and her strange but intelligent employer. Ah, but there is a secret that destroys everything expected! Read this book if you enjoy romance with literary value.
I LOVED this book. Jane Eyre is the respectable, yet fiery lady that I wish I could be. It begins with a stormy and well written childhood, and within a few chapters I couldn't put the book down. I've read classics that I was disappointed in, but this is truly worthy of the title "classic". The love story is so pure, and well worth waiting for. Mr. Rochester seems so unlikable at first, but you just can't help falling inlove with him as the book goes on. I wasn't crazy about St. John. but his purpose was necessary to give you a scare. This book gives great insight to the condition of living for women during this time period. Thank God things have changed. I would've been strung up by my toenails if Reverend Brocklehurst had spoke to me the way he spoke to little Jane. After I read it, I wanted more even though the ending was perfect and filling. Beautifully written characters, and C. Bronte's style of writing is fantastic. I did have to keep a dictionary by my side through most of the book, but I'm not a brilliant kind of gal. The improvement of my vocabulary could only be a plus though. Thank you Miss Charlotte Bronte for this timeless piece of work.
I love Jane Eyre. If I were rating Jane Eyre I would give it six stars out of five. (No that's not a typo.) However, do not buy this book. Buy Jane Eyre, by all means, just don't buy this version of it. There are about five typos a page and by the time I finished the novel, I was so frustrated with the mis-prints I could have screamed. And the cover does the book no justice. The clothing of the woman on the cover is of a different time period than Eyre. The back summary is also hugely misleading and makes this fantastic classic sound more like a trashy romance novel than the brilliantly beautiful work that it truly is. But, do buy Jane Eyre. I have never been so moved by a work of literature than by this book. I cannot praise this book enough, mere words do it no justice.
This Charlotte Bronte novel is a wonderful read. I enjoyed everything about this book. It kept me captivated until the very last page. I would recommend Jane Eyre to all readers!
Whenever the Jane Eyre series was on PBS I would always catch the last part, so I went to a local used book store and found a copy. I did not put the book down until I was done.
A Very good book, I would recommend reading Jane Eyre.
I had to read this book over the summer and I wasn't happy about the length. However, I was really surprised about how much I loved characters especially Jane. Even though this book was written almost 200 years ago it is still relevant today and addresses a lot of modern issues women are confronted with today. I highly recommend
JANE EYRE is such an amazing story that it is extremely difficult to put down. This girl, Jane Eyre, reminds me of the orphan named Annie (from the classic movie, 'ANNIE').
Jane Erye is a romantic piece of literary work that describes the life of a woman. I taught this novel to 12th graders and even the males enjoyed the mystery and intrigue of one of the main characters. A must read!!
this book was amazing. i read it in about four days and i just didn't want to put it down. At first i wasn't too into it but then around 50 pages in i was hooked. This is still my all time favorite book hands down.
Jane Eyre is an amazing book and definitely one of my favorites. The beginning, to be quite honest, did start out a little slow for me, however, once I got past all the "background information," I found myself almost obsessed with wanting to know what happened next. A wonderful book, I highly recommend it.
Jane Eyre is amazing! I love this book! I read it in seventh grade at the suggestion of a librarian and have been in love with it ever since. My younger sister then read it and fell in love too. Charlotte Bronte's masterpeice is amazing and remains a favorite of mine, as it will for all time. It is because of this masterpiece I love classic literature.
I just finished this book today. I read it in two days. Last month I saw the movie directed by Franco Zeffirelli, and after I saw that I decided I had to get the book. I was not dissapointed. Bronte dove deep into Janes heart, without becoming over complicated or boring. I was completely engrossed every second. If you haven't read it yet, what are you waiting for?
Twists, turn, madwomen, this book has it all. I haghly recomend it. I mean, what could be better than a mystery, love story, and all around classic at the same time???
Jane Eyre is one of my all time favorite books.My English teacher recommended it back when i was 12. Yes, i admit the first hundred pages are sort of boring but the rest of the book makes up for it. Its so romantic! Jane is a woman to be admired by all. watch the 2006/07 BBC version of the book! Best one yet!!!
Overall, I think the novel, Jane Eyre, is a great story of love and faith. Throughout the novel, Charlotte Bronte gives great descriptions of everything going on mentally and physically around Jane Eyre throughout her life. The character of Jane is greatly relatable to every reader because of her great struggles with finding a family, and finding a way to make the one true love of her life work out while still keeping her morals. Jane Eyre is also an enjoyable novel in the fact that Charlotte Bronte made a seemingly ordinary love story novel into a much more complex and interesting novel, that turns out to be much more than just a love novel in the end. Jane Eyre is also a commendable novel because throughout the novel, Charlotte Bronte continuously keeps you guessing about the ending of the novel. Additionally, Charlotte Bronte gave not only a detailed description for Jane Bronte, and the other main characters, but she also gave gratifying descriptions for other characters that weren't mentioned through the novel very often, giving them a memorable personality and character in the novel. As a whole, Jane Eyre is a great novel that I would highly recommend for any reader, especially ones interested in the time era in which it was written. Jane Eyre is a classic piece of literature which most difficult to put down.
I am only 14 but this book was just great it wasn't really hard to read or understand . I don't read that much but when I had to read this one in school I realized that I probably will read it again because it was so good and that takes a really good book for me to say that
So much more than I expected.
One of my all-time favorites! Such a moving a beautiful tale.
This book was ahead of its time. Charlotte Bronte was a genius.

Celebrating Taiwan
Last weekend seemed to be all about celebrating Taiwan... Not that I'm complaining! I love how the Talking Taiwan podcast keeps me connected to what's going on in the New York Taiwanese American community, and how the opposite happens as well when my involvement in Taiwan-related events leads to Talking Taiwan podcast ideas.
Thursday was the opening reception of the Taiwan: A World of Orchids exhibit at the Queens Botanical Garden. I had been invited by Pauline Huang, the Chairwoman of the Queens Botanical Garden's Board of Directors. I'd interviewed Pauline about the exhibit for Talking Taiwan. I was really looking forward to it because I absolutely LOVE flowers. They are definitely one of my favorite things to photograph.
But the one thing I wasn't looking forward to was the "hike" to get out there. For some reason it always seems like such an ordeal to get to Flushing from Manhattan. It takes about an hour to get there by subway via the good ol' 7 train. I usually only venture out to Flushing for very specific reasons- i.e. to attend special events or to visit friends who reside there. On top of the one hour of travel time on the subway, getting to the Queens Botanical Garden (QBG) would require a 17 minute walk or a short bus ride.
After riding the 7 train out to the terminal stop, Flushing Main Street, I stepped out of the station and up to the street level. I looked around for the Q44 bus, which I knew would take me to the QBG. I spotted the bus in the distance, stuck in the traffic on Main Street, and in that moment knew that I could a catch it if I ran to the next stop where the bus was headed. I sprinted up the sidewalk, got to the bus stop just in time and quickly hopped on the Q44.
As the bus drove along, I looked for the Queens Botanical Garden. Walking there would have taken 17 minutes, so I figured that it would be a short bus ride to get there. As I looked and looked, the QBC was nowhere in sight. Could I be going in the wrong direction? A quick look at my Google Map app confirmed it. I had gotten on the right bus number but in the opposite direction! Right away I got off the bus, and walked across the street to take a bus right right back to where had I started. Flushing is not my friend. Needless to say, by the time I arrived at the Queens Botanical Garden I was late for the opening reception. It had not ended yet, but I was definitely late.
I arrived at the gates of the QBG, feeling a bit harried, but once I began walking into the garden, those feelings quickly dissipated. I've always loved gardens and thought about all the different botanical gardens I've visited during my various travels over the years. It's been a LONG time since I've done that. Gardens, parks and vast green spaces have been respites for this weary traveler.
As I neared the reception area, I heard the strings of classical music playing in the distance. It was a perfect day for an open-air event. The sounds of Taiwanese folk songs filled the air and several artists painted and sketched orchids.
The indoor exhibit featured several varieties of orchids. Click through to see some of my favorites.
I also got to witness the artistry of watercolor painter Che Min Hsiao, who was on hand doing paintings of orchids that day.
Congratulations to Susan Lacerte (Executive Director of the QBG), Lily Hsu (TECO-NY Ambassador), and Pauline Huang (Chairwoman of QBG)!
Sunday was The 13th Annual Taiwan Heritage Day at Mets Citi Field.
I'd heard about the Taiwan Day event in past years, but had actually never attended. This year would be my first time attending and I was looking forward to all of the pre-game festivities which included performances by Liu Sheng Ji (留聲姬), a rock/Chinese orchestral band from Taiwan and the Third Prince.
While I was there I also came across some other interesting characters including "Coffee" the panhandling New York Mets dog.
Oh Bear and Mr. Met were there too but somehow Oh Bear eluded me and I couldn't find him for a photo op. This is the closest I got to snapping a photo of him.
Oh well, I guess there's always next year.
All in all I thought that the event was a great way to showcase some of Taiwan's culture and it was a terrific branding opportunity for Taiwan. During the game, the JumboTron broadcasted Taiwan travel ads, and baseball fans were shown on screen being asked trivia questions about Taiwan.
As the host of the Talking Taiwan podcast, I'm always looking to cover events, people and stories related to Taiwan. So I'll definitely be reaching out to the Taiwan Tourism Bureau to talk to them about Taiwan Day and/or other events that they sponsor throughout the year.
Talking Taiwan is an audio magazine (podcast) about interesting people who are connected to Taiwan and what they are doing.
If you have a suggestion or show idea for Talking Taiwan, I'd love to hear it. Please feel free to comment below, contact me here on this website or to fill out this form on TalkingTaiwan.com if you'd like to be a guest or to suggest a guest for Talking Taiwan.
Talking Taiwan seeks to introduce listeners to the interesting and diverse individuals who make up Taiwan's global community – in Taiwan, the US, and around the world.

MEET THE DESIGNER - KAIRI LENTSIUS Lentsius Design is an...
Lentsius Design is an accessories and clothing independent label created in 2013 by Kairi Lentsius, who is a versatile artist proposing an interesting combination of accessories and conceptual fashion design. In fact, her designs are symbolized by new materials and shapes, sustainability and incorporating technologies in the development of her line. On another hand, she has been developing handmade jewelleries and accessories in Estonia, in particular with her father Mart Lentsius, to create unisex Scandinavian chic and timeless pieces.

If you were…
… A country? Estonia
… A song? "The Time Is Now" by Moloko
… An artist? David Hockney maybe?
… A supernatural power? Flying

You have been working on different projects from print designs, accessories and garments, using original materials and technologies. Do you consider that it's important to be a versatile artist?
I find it interesting to work in different mediums and to reinvent my ideas in different materials. I also prefer to think of myself as a product designer who loves fashion!
Sustainability is a key feature of your work. At a citizen scale, how could we move toward an efficient sustainable development in your opinion?
Oh, I think about it every second day! It does sound like the basics but recycling should really be a part of everyones daily habits but it ain't so. Also avoiding plastic bags is such an easy thing to do if one think that it brings benefit.
As a designer I like the idea that I produce as much as people buy from me. I don't create large amounts of excessive trash to this world and I do take responsibility for it. We hardly create any left overs that can't be recycled.
What's your biggest influence in your artwork?
Materials and people. My brother inspired me to start making jewellery with his knowledge about aircraft engineering, my dad inspired me to incorporate wood to my collections and my friends inspire me to create things for their niche.

Recognizing Jesus
"Jesus Christ is God's language."
– Leonard Sweet And Frank Viola in Jesus: A Theography
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him." (John 14:6-7 NIV)
I am writing this from the deck of the Carnival Dream luxury liner. It is literally a floating luxury hotel. Along with 3000+ other passengers, we are speeding our way to Honduras on the first of 3 stops before returning to New Orleans.
This break has given me the opportunity to just stop. To simply stop. There are no sermons to write, reports to return, people to visit, or projects to work on. It's the gift of rest. With rest, comes reflection. Not the strained disciplined dissection of every action, motive, and thought, but the organic consideration of the meaning of things, the purposes of life, the mysteries of spirituality, and value of relationships.
The week prior to this trip, my world was rocked. One of my favorite people in life died in a tragic accident. He was a member of the congregation in which I serve on pastoral staff, a campus missionary to colleges in the area, a father, husband, and probably one of the most impactful people I have seen. Anyone who ever met Jake liked him. He lived soooo well. At his memorial service, which lasted over 4 hours but had over 1500 people from every spectrum of life there testifying to his impact and influence.
HIs life in essence was a life of love. Not the fluffy, emotive affection that we often regard as love (although, his wife shared that he did have some of that too). No, it was the fierce, sacrificial love that evokes a response. The kind of love that relentlessly pursues the object of its love.
Coincidentally (but not accidentally), I was reading Old Testament Scholar W. Brueggemann's book "An Unsettled God", devotionally. One of the many premises that he reveals in his excellent study of the attributes of God is that due to Israel's misunderstanding of the person of God, that God uses language in his redemption to reveal his character in a way that is unmistakable. The language he uses are "action words" that reveal the true character of God. (Redemption literally means to "buy back", and in the case of Brueggemann's study refers to the return of a conquored, scattered Israel back to his own land in the 6th century BCE). These words are ultimately revealed in Jesus and his body, also called the church. And I am going on record by saying that Jake Baxter exemplified what should be authentic in the church.
Four words:
1. Gather: God spoke of "gathering Israel". The nature of God is to gather people together and unify them in community. Jesus came to "break down" the dividing wall between people, people groups and even that with God. Jake Baxter was a master community developer. Beginning with his home that housed friends, outsiders, the marginalized, and the opportunistic. All were welcome, all felt like they belonged. He showed hospitality as a lifestyle, not simply an event. Jesus revealed...
2. Love: God talked with Israel in romantic love. In the book of Hosea, God sees himself as husband to an unfaithful Israel that he will woo back through sacrificial acts of love. The Greek Scriptures tell us that God demonstrated his love for us in this: Christ (Jesus) died for sinners. Jake loved people in a way that cost him. He lived frugally and literally, everything he had materally, was open to be used for others in need. Some people stole from him, misunderstood his generosity, and took advantage of him, He understood that and was never angry or bitter because the purpose of the actions was not appreciation, but the demonstration of a God who is sacrificially geneorus to others, regardless of their ability to return the favor. Jesus revealed...
3. Heal: God promised to "heal Israel". There is a commitment to make Israel whole. This is different than making Israel wealthy or preventing affliction, but it's a commitment to make them complete. They would recognize that God has accepted them and that he deems them as both significant and secure. Jake ministered to many with addictions, character flaws (writer included), illnesses, and injuries (physical, mental, and emotional). He stood with so many on their journey toward wholeness. The paths of thousands were guided by Jake at sometime or another. Jesus revealed....
4. Forgive: God promised to "forgive all their sins". This shifts the understanding of God from primarily that of Judge to that of redeemer. This is ultimately revealed in Jesus who dies so that world may experience forgiveness. Jake not only practiced forgiveness but understood his relationship with God as that of a relationship of grace. It was because he was forgiven that he could forgive. Once again, Jesus revealed...
All this to say, upon reflection, I recognize that the reason that I was so impacted by Jake is because he is probably the closest reflection of Jesus that I have ever known. I know that Jake, like everyone else, was not perfect. But I am so thankful for having known him and thankful for his huge impact and influence in my life and outlook.
We worshipped Jesus at Jake's memoral services, and it was totally appropriate in light of his life.
Afterall, when Jesus is revealed, the only appropriate response is worship.
God bless you,
Pastor M Traylor

Last night at 9pm was the halfway point of the seminar. We've completed 3 days of training, consisting of 30m standing practice at 7am, breakfast, 2.5hrs of xinjia, lunch, 2.5 hrs of xinjia, dinner, 1.5 hrs of weapons. Train, eat, train, eat, train, eat, train, sleep, and start over. Tonight is a break from the weapons for a class for instructors, taught by Grandmaster Chen Xiaoxing. I'm looking forward to that – he is a wealth of information and we don't often get to hear him lecture.
This is my favorite time of these long training seminars. My legs have finally loosened up, my joints are a little more lubricated, and I love the burn of posture corrections by Grandmaster Chen Xiaoxing. I'm tired, and am projecting ahead to the day when I can sleep in (August 16th), but the training energizes me at the same time. I'm finding my practice rhythm.
I received a posture correction yesterday in Single Whip, one of my favorite moves. The correction was all about finding the alignment, sinking the qi, rooting my stance, and relaxing. I still have trouble getting there on my own, but once there, the feeling is one of incredible strength and power. If I apply this learning to my life (which I always try to do), I realize that to lead from a position of strength and power, I need to continue to look to my spiritual teachings to guide me, just as I look to my taiji teachers to guide me deeper in my form. Finding the way, or the right posture, comes from the humility of progress, from eating bitter, from acknowledging the need to reach deep inside oneself and own one's mistakes. In my life, I am constantly learning, and at times the price is quite high. But I continue to strive for that correct posture, that alignment, that heightened awareness that comes with corrections from a power higher than oneself.
We have 3 more days of training, then a blur of a trip home and back to work before the taiji soreness even wears off. I will transfer what I've learned in Planica to my other life's work, and hope to do better. I am committed to the process, the continued learning, and each time I sink even briefly into that perfect place, I can't rest on that accomplishment, because I know there is an even more perfect place waiting for me the next time.

Since then Erik Winfree, a computer scientist at the California Institute of Expertise , has demonstrated that nonbiologic DNA variants (reminiscent of branched DNA) can be adapted to retailer and process information. DNA and quantum computing remain intriguing prospects that, even when they prove impractical, might result in additional advances within the hardware of future computers.

Searching for the most effective pc chair to your weight can also be essential, be sure that the chair you'll be purchasing can handle your physique weight especially if you are a heavy individual. Most well made ergonomic chairs can deal with up to 250 kilos. In the end you will need a sturdy desk that holds your rig and other peripherals. While I favor to have an L-formed desk, there are quite a lot of others who might favor a big and extensive simple straight desk. Which would you somewhat have?

Pc know-how has helped many 10 yr old children with Earth and house science projects. They've been in a position to obtain computer images and arrange these with text describing the theme of the presentation. The pc allows the youngsters to current their stories intimately, presumably with good inventive composition and features. Printed presentations, carried out by the computer, are often of excellent high quality. As much as the computer know-how has advanced, so too has printer technology. Kids right this moment usually have entry to stylish coloration printers that use laser technology to provide sensible and sharp photos on paper. The days of a kid drawing an ecosystem on paper with crayons are largely gone.
For any gaming system, the typical answer to this is 8GB. I'd say that in almost each state of affairs that that is true. Whereas some video games use over 8GB I haven't seen a huge distinction in quite a few frames one will get simply by having Ram over this amount. That being said, some trendy video games do go over so if you're eager to future proof your system, 16GB might be a good idea.

As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, "Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!"
"Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her." Luke 10:38-42
A few years back, when my daughter Paige insisted on having an Alice In Wonderland birthday party, I knew we had to make her dreams become a reality. We went all out on the decorations, tea party, music, and games. A few special guests even made an appearance (i.e. My wife dressed up as the Queen of Hearts and me decked out like The Mad Hatter).
The day finally arrived for the party. Kids and parents started to come….and come…and come. Before we knew it, our house became filled to the brim. We didn't have enough seats, so people were sitting on top of one another. The snack table was utterly decimated. And, words don't even do justice in describing the decimal level that comes from children hopped up on sugary treats. We went into panic mode, just trying to ensure everyone was having a good time. We raced from one demand to another.
Then it happened…DING DONG…. "um, Tony…I think the cops are here." Sure enough, a "friendly" neighbor had called the police on our preschooler blowout. For whatever reason, the policeman didn't chuckle when I opened the door in my Mad Hatter attire and said, "Have I gone mad?"
Eventually, the cops left and we got things under control. Exhausted and worn out, my wife and I laid on the couch only to have Paige come up, give us a big hug and say, "Daddy and Mommy, that was the best party ever!" Was it? Because I missed it. The chaos and madness happening all around me caused me to lose sight of what was truly important: celebrating this moment with our friends and family.
Life comes us at us pretty quick. The noise and the busyness can lead us to lose perspective on our priorities. We can get so swept up in the demands placed on us that we forget our purpose. The squeaky wheel grabs our attention. We fear that everything won't be absolutely perfect, so we never allow ourselves to be present in the midst of the chaos. The intimacy we crave with God and with others loses out to surface level surviving.
We are more Martha and not so much Mary. Many of us are exhausted, overwhelmed, resentful and weary. We are moving quickly, but getting nowhere fast. So today, hit pause. Have a moment. Take a deep breath. Check your connection level with your Creator. Be honest about where you might be physically present, but emotionally and spiritually distant with Him and others.
The only way for us to survive the chaos is to stay connected. By being still, we are displaying trust and exhibiting humility. Sitting at His feet is what gives us sure footing during the difficult circumstances we'll face. The only "very important date" we are late for is with the ONE who knows and cares about our heart.
- Why are you reluctant to be still and let God speak to your heart?
- How can you slow down, be present and see what truly matters?
God, all too often I allow my circumstances to dictate how connected I feel with You. Help me to just be still. May I carve out moments in my day just to reflect on Your love and the hope I have in You. Allow the time I spend with You to shape my perspective about the world around me. In Your name, Jesus. Amen.


text: vtfolklife May 25, 2016 Manifesting the Talents / Rory Jackson vtfolklife May 25, 2016 As a painter, my aim is to bring to life a presence to the viewer, a relationship between the earth and the people who hold covenant with it. Whether is it through light, reflection, movement or design, I want to bring everlasting life to a moment in time. As long as I can sense a progression in the development of my work, Painting will remain a central part of my life. I think Robert Henri best states my feeling of what it means to move forward as an artist when he says, "All outward success, when it has value, is but the inevitable result of an inward success of full living, full play and enjoyment of one's faculties." Rory spends time between his home in Lincoln, VT and the beach of Cape Three Points, Ghana. While painting the landscape of Vermont, he focuses on the dramatic light, and space around the mountains and valleys, pivoting on his favorite Mountain of Abraham. In Ghana, Rory spends time studying seascapes, village scenes, boats and the reflective light and movement of the sea and the life that depends on its abundance. "All honest observation absorbs into my successes a true vibrancy of life. The balance of the two places keeps my interest in subject matter fresh, while marking each year's progress in two very different seasons." I watch both my sons continue the artistic interest in bringing to life these moments we observe. It is a joy to have the privilege to create, and to watch my own children follow their creative intuition. Allowing a story to manifest reassures me that I am moving in the right direction. Edgewater Gallery, located in Middlebury - Vermont's artistic and intellectual capital - has been contributing to the local culture with vibrant exhibitions from emerging and established artists, drawing national and international collectors and collaborating with a diverse local artisan community. — Rory Jackson, Painter

Guggenheim Museum New York
One of my favorite museums in New York City is the Guggenheim Museum! Frank Lloyd Wright was commissioned to design this building in 1943 and houses the museum established by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation.
This iconic building is truly a landmark with the spiral ramp that leads to the domed skylight. It is a really unique way to present contemporary art.
This is one of my favorite views of the spiral ramp from the interior looking up.
Imagine how thrilled I was to be included in the Guggenheim Museum Shop! If you can make it there for a visit, it is definitely worth the trip because the architecture of this building is so amazing.
You can also shop through their online store and find the Pedestal Egg Cups!
And the Small Pedestal Bowl in Pink! It is a wonderful Spring color!
I hope you get a chance to visit them this Spring or Summer! Enjoy!

The Murder of Sergei Kirov:
History, Scholarship and the Anti-Stalin Paradigmby Grover Furr
While much has been written on the subject of the 1934 murder of Sergei Kirov, most contemporary studies and accounts seem to reach the same conclusions, often based laregly upon half-truths and conjecture. In his latest book The Murder of Sergei Kirov: History, Schloarship and the Anti-Stalin Paradigm, Grover Furr casts a critical eye upon some of the most recent studies of the Kirov murder, refuting decades of misinformation through his careful dissection and analysis of important historical documents. The Murder of Sergei Kirov effectively and definitively challenges the prevailing schools of thought on one of the most controversial events in Soviet history.

Electric vehicle owners can participate in a new Time-of-Day (TOD) rate.
On the TOD rate, when you use electricity is just as important as the amount of electricity you use. You pay different rates for electricity based on the time of day you use it. For example, rates are highest during weekdays in the summer from 5p.m. to 8 p.m.
For plug-in electric vehicle owners, there is an additional 1.5¢ per kWh credit for charging your EV between midnight and 6 a.m. every day, all year long.

I'm enjoying a coffee midway into a 50km ride. It got me thinking. I ride to be healthy. I ride to maintain my middle age weight. I ride coz it's good for me. I ride coz I can. I ride coz it's free. I ride coz it's freedom. There are time I don't feel like riding. I can prepare, fuel my body, ensure my bikes in good order; yet if I don't get out & ride it counts for nothing. Knowledge alone cannot and will not bring about change.
Academics and industry specific experts would have us believe that science, evidence and data are the essence of improvement, advancement and progression. It's true that there is merit in monitoring, reviewing and tracking specific indicators that indeed can enhance and explain performance. Yet, motivation, persistence and sheer stubborn determination remain a mystery. The handle of hope after a fall from grace, a failure in business or relationship or the bruising of ego following a demotion or retrenchment can leave an individual questioning confidence, capacity and sense of identity and worth. Therein lies some of the mystery of being human that goes beyond measurement.
Resilience and overcoming adversity are closely aligned. The more adversity one faces the greater the capacity to overcome and build resilience. Whether it's a teenager confronted by social exclusion; or worse, bullying; an employee constantly overlooked for promotion or those on the dating merry-go-round going on yet another possibility, there resides an ounce of hope that things will change for the better.
Mindfulness teaches us to BE HERE NOW. Accepting our circumstances, status, limitations as well as our dreams & hopes provides the platform for change. Denial of our thoughts & feelings simply perpetuates the dynamo of resistance. Acceptance & persistence facilitate change. The art of trying…again.

Do young employees find it hard to finish tasks? Is it somehow difficult for them to bring a job to completion? So we ask the question and start to look for an answer.
Our cast moves from the problem of finishing tasks to the problem of finishing MOOCS – Those Massive Open OnLine Courses that seem to be everywhere and no where at once. And from finishing MOOCs, they return to the problem of finishing tasks and grasp, for a moment, that they are the same thing. In a world where information is ubiquitous, why do we need to finish anything?

Creative Longing
If you follow me on Pinterest you may have noticed that I have been on a pinning kick lately. I don't know what it is, but recently my creative side has been fighting to get out. I want to go do crafts! Try a new recipe! Have some creative fun!
Unfortunately, finding the time to do these things is difficult, especially now that I have a full time job (which I'm still super stoked about).
The location of the office doesn't help though – it is positioned right around the Academy of Art University. That means that every time I leave the office I am surrounded by creative types. Today, as I walked to grab lunch, I noticed something glorious – an art store right around the corner from the office, complete with all sorts of supplies AND an up to 70% off sale. It took everything in my power not to go inside, poke around and spend all the money I haven't made yet.
Side note: I desperately want to take classes at the Academy of Art but don't have the financial stability nor the time to do so. Such a bummer.
When I was on Facebook today I noticed a friend had shared a photo on her timeline that made me feel even more creatively deprived:
Even just looking at it now it is nagging me to be creative – mainly to redesign the list and make it look a bit more attractive 😉 Maybe, instead, I'll make my own creativity list sometime when I have time and motivation (which will probably be never).
That being said, who wants to be creative with me? We could scrap book, decorate, have a Pinterest party, bake, cook, go on a photo shoot, anything our hearts desire!
Doesn't that sound lovely?
