Today, Nikon officially presented two full-frame mirrorless cameras: Nikon Z6 and Z7. We participated in the official premiere of cameras. Here are our first impressions.
The long-awaited moment has come. Nikon showed two full-frame mirrorless cameras. The manufacturer, which until now practically did not exist on the market of cameras without mirrors, decided to enter it with a repulse. That's why he decided to launch full frame equipment – only Sony now offers. There are two new models – Nikon Z6 and Z7 . One can compete with Sony A7 III, the other with A7R III. Both present themselves very interesting.
The Nikon Z6 offers high speed and high ISO
Nikon Z6 is less advanced with two models. It has a full-frame matrix with a resolution of 24.5 megapixels. ISO can be raised to the maximum level of 51 200, and the whole is supported by the EXPEED 6 processor . The autofocus of this model has been equipped with 293 focus points, and the matrix is mechanically stabilized. Its strength is valued by the producer at around 5 EV – it is a really good result.In serial mode, the camera will take 12 RAW images in a second. A 3.2-inch screen with a resolution of up to 2.1 million points corresponds to the image preview. The very strong point of the camera, however, turns out to be its viewfinder. This offers a 0.8x magnification and a resolution of 3.69 million points. These are some of the highest values on the market. In addition, the design uses the lens known from Nikkor lenses. This all together guarantees the highest possible quality of the preview – and indeed – the screen is simply very good, but the image quality in the viewfinder really arouses admiration. The very ergonomics of both models (their construction is virtually identical) was taken from the manufacturer's SLRs. What follows – we will find, among others, a joystick for setting the focus point. Unfortunately, there is no touch on the screen, so we have to settle for this solution. At the top there is a mode dial and one for setting various photographic values depending on the mode. There was also a top screen with a preview of the most important parameters. This solution is rare in mirrorless cameras – Panasonic has recently used it in the Lumix G9. Overall, however, the knobs and buttons are slightly less than the manufacturer's top SLRs. What may surprise you because it does not compensate for this touch screen. The ergonomics itself is at a high level, the grip is well contoured, and the whole body of considerable size – it feels good in your hand, which will be appreciated by the photojaps working with SLRs every day.
The Nikon Z7 provides high resolution and ultra-fast autofocus
The higher model, the Nikon 7 offers a matrix with a resolution of up to 45.7 Mpix. The EXPEED 6 processor is also used here, but the maximum ISO is slightly lower – it is 21,600. The hybrid AF system is much better – it has as many as 493 focus areas, which is one of the best results on the market. Sharpening takes place instantly, and the camera works quickly even in the 4EV lighting.The speed of the burst mode is slightly lower, at 9 frames per second. However, we must take into account that their resolution is much higher, so the camera must save much larger files. A large part of the specifications in terms of preview as well as ergonomics coincide with the Z6 model. In both models, special attention is paid to very large – even for a full frame – fixing. The manufacturer explains this by the fact that thanks to the extension of the clamping he could simultaneously provide smaller dimensions while maintaining high quality. We can only write about the quality of the pictures taken that at first glance it looks really great. But that's it, because for now the manufacturer did not give the opportunity to take it test shots. At the same time, I must add that I would not do it anyway without borrowing the card. It turns out that Nikon uses very non-standard XQD cards. It seems that only such carriers meet the speed standards required by the camera. Unfortunately, many people may consider this solution a minus, because such cards are slightly more expensive and harder to access than standard SD cards. In addition, it may come as a surprise that there is only one entry for cards. For many photographers it will be a big minus. In the next year, however, a new type of cards will appear and after updating the firmware you will be able to use them as well.
Both cameras film in 4K
Z6 and Z7 are also an attempt to enter Nikon into the world of film cameras. In both cases, the autofocus works very fast and smoothly in a continuous mode. The stabilization of the 5 EV matrix will guarantee stable shots and should work with the stabilization in the lenses – at least this was ensured at the Polish show, because there is information on the network that, unfortunately, it does not work like this.We will be able to film in 4K resolution at 30fps and Full HD with up to 120fps. These are currently standard values. The camera also has a logarithmic N-Log profile, and there are also 20 color profiles that can be used in both photos and movies. The filming will also help focus peaking, when we want to sharpen by hand, as well as a zebra, informing about x-rays or timecodes helping in synchronizing the image with the sound. We will be able to record uncompressed 8-bit material on an external recorder, so the output image quality can be really high. Of course, there was an external microphone entry. And if we are already in communication – both models offer HDMI and USB version C, while wireless connectivity provides Bluetooth version 4.2 and WiFi in the ac standard.
Price Nikon Z6 and Nikon Z7
New cameras for sale will go in the autumn. Z7 on store shelves is expected to appear at the end of September, and Z6 at the end of November. For the first one, we will pay 16 999 for a body with an adapter for Nikon lenses. The version with the kit 24-70 mm f / 4 was priced at PLN 18 999. We will buy the cheaper Z6 for PLN 9999 in the version with the adapter and for 12,999 with the putty. Prices – as you can see – are very close to what Sony offers. It is difficult to judge whether the cameras will achieve great success. Certainly the specification of both is very strong. But on the other hand it does not beat what Sony offers. The success will definitely be decided by the quality of the photos, as well as the price of the greenhouse, because in this respect, Sony is not cheap at all. And of course the fact that many photographers will be easier to change from a Nikon reflex camera to a mirrorless one than a completely new Sony system.Nikon's strength can be just a greenhouse. In addition to the three glasses available this year, several more to be added over the next two years. In addition, we get an adapter at the entrance to the camera. This can tempt many Nikon users who have invested thousands in the lens of this manufacturer. We will probably see how the cameras perform in a few weeks when they reach our editorial office. Then we will share with you more detailed thoughts.

Cornhole is a lawn game played with beanbags and wooden boards.
The objective is to toss the bags into a hole on the boards: this yields 3 points. Getting the bag on the board is 1 point.
- Get ready to paint by applying wood putty and sanding.
- Apply primer.
- Lay out the design.
- Pick your paint.
- Paint your boards.
- Apply MinWax.
- Go play!
Starting Point
Ready to Paint
One of the most fulfilling parts of creating your own cornhole sets is the design. You've already put in a lot of time and work to make the set, now you want to make sure it looks great so you can show it off to your friends. Before you get ready to prime and paint it, you must do some prep work.
- Take some wood putty and fill in all the holes from the screws and nails and any other blemishes that might be in the surface. If you chose to use a really nice piece of hardwood plywood, you will hopefully have very few things to fill.
- After the putty dries, make sure you give a nice hand sanding to the entire surface so everything is smooth and flush.
- Take a lightly damp rag and wipe off the surfaces to get rid of any dust that might be remaining before you begin to use the primer.
Since the boards are made out of plywood, we need to get a nice base for our paint. The first step in the process is put primer on everything. I used a Rustoleum primer that sticks to anything. This is important to give your paint a solid surface to stick to. This process should be a very quick part, since you don't have to worry about making it look perfect. One warning is that primer is nearly impossible to get off of anything (including yourself). I used a super cheap sponge brush to apply the primer so I could just toss it in the trash afterwards. DO NOT use a quality brush, as it will be ruined once this process is finished. This part doesn't need to look great; just make sure all the wood is covered.
Lay Out the Design
Let the Creativity Begin
The best part of the process is getting to design and paint your board however you want. There really are no limits. You can be as creative or simple as you want. Slight warning: More creative designs take more time and more patience, but are well worth it in the end. If you want straight, crisp lines on your boards, then painters tape is essential. I always use Frog Tape; I think it is by far the best painters tape around. You can measure out your designs, mark with a pencil, and lay your tape down.
I chose a variety of stripes on my boards, fairly simple. This process was a bit more time consuming simply because I chose to use 4 different colors. This means you have to apply multiple coats and continue letting them dry before you can move on to the next color. Also, more colors equals more money (cost). So consider that before you lay out your design. You shouldn't need more than a quart of any color of paint, so don't waste money buying paint by the gallon.
Starting to Paint
Let the Painting Commence
There are a few key issues to address when beginning the painting process.
- Choosing the correct type of paint is very important. If you aren't familiar with paints, you will be completely lost when you walk into Home Depot, Lowe's, or some other paint store. There are a million types of paints, and often the associates aren't as knowledgeable as they should be in order to give appropriate advice.
- When you are choosing your paint, you want to choose an Exterior Semi-Gloss Enamel. I never get an oil-based paint because it's such a hassle to clean and ruins everything else it touches (hence why I hate primer). So save yourself a headache and get a water-based latex paint and life will go more smoothly.
- I chose a Behr Premium Plus paint and they can color it any way you want. It washes out of your brushes very easily and off of your hands, etc.
- Like I said earlier, there is no reason to get more than a quart of any color; a quart is more than enough to paint your boards with multiple coats.
Getting Closer...Added Some MinWax
Clear Coat MinWax
- Continue to be patient as you paint. It's very important that you don't leave any drips or bubbles in your paint. For this reason, I always use a brush and never a roller. Make sure you put multiple coats of each paint, you want this to be a quality product. Let paint completely dry before you apply each additional coat.
- Once you have everything painted the way you desire, there is one more critical step to go. To protect the paint and your cornhole set, you need to add a clear coat polycrylic. Essentially, you are waxing your board with a clear coat. This will protect everything you have just labored hours on, but it will also make your board shiny and slick. The best product for this stage is made by MINWAX. It's water based Polycrylic protective finish. I'll warn you that it isn't too cheap, but don't skip out on this step. Once again, you won't need a lot of this, so a quart will be plenty.
- When you apply this to the board, make sure your paint is extra dry before starting the process. Follow the directions on the can, but essentially, you apply it just like you would paint. If you are nervous, there are plenty of YouTube videos that can help show you how to apply the polycrylic. Apply nice, thick coats. The more coats the better. I always do a minimum of 5 coats, but usually like to apply 7-8 coats. Once again, it's very important to let it completely dry before each coating. Use a brush, not a roller.
Go PLAY!
Last, but not Least
After everything has had time to dry completely, it is time to take your beautiful creation out and test it out.
Questions & Answers
I always seem to have trouble with painter's tape. I put it on fine, but am not sure when the best time to take it off is. Is it better to remove it right away while the paint is still wet (and redo the tape for multiple coats), or after the paint is dry?
You need to get a quality painter's tape. I would leave it on for all of the coats and remove it at the end.
If you tried to redo the tape each time, you would have a very difficult time perfectly matching the line.
So, buy a great tape, and just leave it on until the last coat.Helpful 29
I used a spray primer and paint (all in one) and the boards are too slick. How can I slow them down?
In truth, actual corn hole boards are supposed to be quite slick to make it more difficult.
For those of us who aren't as skilled we don't want it as slick. I've never used a paint and primer in one for this. You'll need to see if there is a clear coat that is matte or semi gloss finish.
Or if the board is solid color, you could paint over it with a less glossy finished paint.
Lastly, you could scuff it up a little with sand paper, but I'm not sure how that would look depending on the design of the board.Helpful 24
I bought already finished boards but want to change the color what do I need to do? Oh I have stencils to put my favorite team in the board can spray paint be used?
Should I use a flat paint, then cover with semi gloss polycrylic? I am worried about adhesion, semi gloss paint covered by semi gloss polycrylic may flake. Your thoughts?Helpful 2
I'm planning on painting part of the board, but leaving the wood exposed on part, likely with some kind of wood stain to make the color darker. Do you have any advice/have you ever done this before? Should I stain only the part where the wood is going to be exposed? Or can I stain the whole thing and then paint over the stain?
Great question. That all depends on the amount of time/work you want to spend and the type of paint you end up using. If you stain the whole thing, you will save yourself a little time and headache, but then you will need a higher quality paint, which will need to have a primer that can go over the stain.
You will be able to achieve great results either way, but my preference would be to only stain the portions that will be showing as a stain in the finished product. This will allow the painted areas to saturate the wood and be guaranteed to have no issues with the stain down the road. Once again, you can honestly do it either way; you will just need to make sure your paint is the proper type to go over stain if you choose to go that route.Helpful 18
Hi. We made bean boards, let paint dry and when I put the poly on, it seems like there are 'blemishes'. I did sand after the 4th coat but even after that and the application of the 5th coat, I still see raised areas/bubbles. Any thoughts? If I keep adding coats, do you think the raised areas will 'blend' in?
Can you use stain instead of paint on boards?
I made one for my daughter and son in law. The scheme is Philidelphia Flyers. They love it.
Hey, just wanted to be sure, did you paint the black first before putting the frog tape over and then paint the other stripes? How far did you paint black "underneath" the other paint?
Thank you! Made my boards based on this post! Nice walk through!
What are the measurements for your paint pattern?
I bought the only birch plywood at my local hardware store and used two coats of KILZ 2 latex primer. At this point, I am pretty sure that the fault is with the veneer in the wood, but I should be able to tell for sure during the repair process tonight. Will post updates tomorrow..
The paint dried in my garage and this weekend was in the 50's-60's so pretty ideal painting weather. This is only the second set that I have built and have not experienced bubbles before. Also, the bubble was not visible until after the paint was applied (I checked the board before purchasing because apparently this is not uncommon...). The bubble popping technique that I came across the most is to put some painter's tape over the bubble, slice into the bubble with the grain and use a knife or razor blade to apply a very small amount of wood glue under the plywood veneer. Then put some wax paper over top of the tape and add weight to the area while the glue dried. The initial layer of painter's tape is so that any glue seepage will go to the top of the tape as opposed to the area on your project. Once the glue is dried, proceed with finishing as normal. Does this approach sound reasonable? Not trying to hi jack your post, but just wanted to provide some more information in case other readers have a similar issue.
I recently painted a set of cornhole boards for a friend. After the final coat had dried, I noticed a bubble (about the size of a quarter) has popped up. It feels like it is a bubble in the plywood veneer. I have looked elsewhere online and the suggestions that I have found seems to indicate that I need to slice the bubble with a razor and insert glue under the laminate layer. Do you know if this is a necessary step or if a few coats of high-gloss polycrylic will be sufficient to protect this place on the board?
I put on the first coat and the boards looked fine, it said two hours for drying, did second coat, I left them outdoors and this morning it's all alligatored and RUINED, sanding lightly doesn't help, makes it smooth but you can still see the horrible marks...I have two colors, put on vinyl decals, lots of time and work and now they look horrible and I have no idea how to fix it
I went to get the Minwax and noticed that I could get gloss, semi-gloss, or satin finish. Which do you recommend?

ESPN NFL Draft guru Mel Kiper has come out with the second version of his Mock Draft. You will recall in version 1.0, he had Mohamed Sanu going No. 26 to the Houston Texans.
There has been a bit of a change in version 2.0.
Sanu is out of the first round. UConn defensive tackle Kendall Reyes is in, at No. 31 to the New England Patriots. Kiper says, in part:
He's not going to shed blocks as a brilliant pass-rusher would, but Reyes can develop into the guy who makes everybody else a better pass-rusher because he demands so much blocking help.
Reyes is no doubt moving up draft boards. He surely was helped by his terrific performance during Senior Bowl week. Reyes, at 6-foot-4 and 300 pounds, turned plenty of heads. He not only played inside during practice, but at end as well. Reyes started the Senior Bowl game, and was credited with one sack.
Kiper also revised his top five prospects by position. There is a new face on that list as well. Phillip Thomas of Syracuse checks in as the No. 5 safety available.

As mentioned in my last post, I had planned to take some time off for the holidays. That came to pass via unintended means. Rather than celebrate and eat and drink myself into an ever-expanding waistline, I fell into a diet regimen with astonishing results. I call it the HC Diet; HC stands for head cold.
The amazing thing about this protocol is its ability to work despite any intentions the user has to drop out. So, instead of eating rich foods and consuming adult beverages, I've been subsisting on a diet of coffee and phlegm. This has been augmented by a strict policy of exercise avoidance.
Though I managed to drag myself to the keyboard for this brief post, the rest of my efforts have been confined to travel between bed and sofa.
Another interesting effect of this miracle diet is its impact on certain intellectual and emotional functions. My creativity, for instance, has all but disappeared along with my interest in virtually any program available on TV. I flipped through at least a thousand movie titles available free on cable, and couldn't find a single one that touched my fancy much less tickled it.
Two visits to the local Doc in a Box generated four prescriptions and two injections (that required a different sort of cheek turning).
Am I feeling better? I dunno. I'm going back to bed now. Maybe I'll have a better idea about that when I wake up. Tomorrow. Or the next day.

Midpoint is the Student Ministry of Decibel Church. It is your place to connect - to bring friends and make new ones. To hangout, laugh, eat, and discover who Jesus is and what a relationship with Him looks like. Midpoint is a place for students from all schools, interests, and walks of life to find fun friendships and people committed to helping you grow in your walk with God.
If you've been a part of Midpoint before, this semester will look slightly different. If you're new here, welcome home! You're right on time. We will not have our midweek service. One way we strive to support families is by respecting your schedules. Sports, honors classes, jobs, and siblings already fight for our students' attention - we decided it's best not to compete for another week night, rather design an environment that highlights our values. Starting in October, middle + high school students will have the opportunity to attend our biweekly hangout; 'Sup? - 'Sup is short for 'what's up?' as well as 'supper'. Every first + third Sunday evening at 5:45pm, we'll gather around a local restaurant table to check-in and continuously build relationships. The best way to stay connected is right here or by following us on Instagram.
We'll see you on Sunday! Our student section is to the front-right. You always have a seat with us.

I have the same issue and encountered the same gap in services. If you are a seed stage startup with no product and no investors yet then there is no way this stage startup can afford $10K per month. All available funds are going into developing the product so you can get to the point of having revenue and hiring your first employee and maybe finally give the founders a bit of salary to pay their living expenses.
I spoke with a number of PR firms but none seem interested or have the right tools for a seed stage startup. I've been doing all the PR and marketing myself, but I also worked at marketing agencies for ten years. It does take up time that could go into other parts of developing the product and running the company, but so far I don't see any other feasible choice. PR needs at this stage are modest; you have nothing to sell, you are just trying to build awareness.

As a child, the memories of my most beloved escapes occurred when we lived in the country. I would disappear for hours outdoors. Exploring the woods next to our house. Running through our neighbor's fields to their spacious old barn; their dog, Norton, on my heels, to climb and play and nest among the scratchy hay bales and comfort of its sweet aroma. Petting the droopy-eyed, red velvety, spotted jersey cows while they methodically grazed; gingerly approaching the friskier black horses, Skip and Lady, to feel their soft lips against my hand and the earthy smell of their coats. Climbing as high in the branches of the cherry trees outside our yard as I could muster the bravery to also climb back down. Arranging the inside of the two-story playhouse Papa built for me as if I had stumbled upon a deserted cottage in the woods. I'd sit there, sometimes for hours, writing stories or keeping a little diary written from the perspective of whichever character I was pretending to be that day. Not surprisingly, some of my favorite stories were the Secret garden, Mrs. Piggle Wiggle and the Boxcar children series. I had imagination in abundance.
These days, I may not have a barn to escape to, fields to run through, cows or horses to pet. Yet it's funny how these moments will return to me, as if reincarnated, when I get the sudden urge to climb a tree, visit a farm, pet a goat, read a children's book, play in a fountain, stomp in puddles or drive through the countryside. Now I have incorporated more 'adult' diversions. I lose myself in my online Spanish course, imagining I was living in the pictures on my screen, speaking a language other than my own. I research newfound interests, like how to plant and grow tomatoes and how to live a shampoo-free life. With my camera around my neck, I stroll Seattle neighborhoods, straining to see life through a different lens.
I sweat my stresses out in weekly Zumba classes, grinning like a sweaty kid on the playground. I step outside my normal self to feel the music of salsa and dance as if life always felt so carefree. I create delicious meals with whatever ingredients I happen to have around, unleashing a different sort of imagination, and savor (or sometimes not) the final product. I hike around my favorite Seattle parks - Discovery, Lincoln, Carkeet - and stroll along the waters of Alki Beach, the downtown waterfront, Lake Washington, or Greenlake. I explore new and not-so-new neighborhoods in my city, admiring the houses, watching the people, browsing the shops, making mental notes of places I want to return to. Sometimes, I escape into a good mystery read late at night, some series about an ordinary sleuth living a somewhat simpler life in a small town, full of quirky, familiar characters. And I sit for hours in my favorite local coffee houses, savoring a delicious, roasty cup of coffee and doing one of the things I love the most: writing.
I love these simple escapes, this smattering of diversions throughout my daily life. They help energize me, in the way the sun floods my soul when it comes out after a winter of gray skies in Seattle, helping me be present in the ebb and flow of everyday life, helping me to stay connected with that curious, playful child still inside of me.

05 Mar What behaviors will result in bans from submitting and/or commenting?
CHECK OUT MORE STORIES SORTED BY:🏆 Top-Ranked Stories 📅 Recently Published 📚 Category ⌛ Length 📝 Author 📖 Title 📅 Published on March 5, 2016
"What behaviors will result in bans from submitting and/or commenting?"Written by
Estimated reading time — 4 minutes
If you've read the rest of the FAQ, this should already be clear, but for those of you who need things spelled out:
- For COMMENTS: Attempting to submit a pasta via comments, attempting to obtain/reveal personal information about myself or ANYONE ELSE (authors, other comment-leavers, Creepypasta YouTubers, etc), offensive slurs (racial, homophobic, nationalistic, sexist, religious, etc), deeply personal attacks on myself or anyone else (this means no attacking other comment-leavers or authors for what you perceive as their religious beliefs, orientation, etc), as well as excessive spamming (do not treat the comments section as your own personal message board for you and your friends on topics unrelated to Creepypasta – this is a waste of my time and server space) will result in the comments being marked as "spam" and thus rejected. The anti-spam filter that I use is "smart" and if I mark a person's comment as spam, it will remember the IP and email address and start automatically deleting future comments from that person. If what you post is really beyond the pale or a repeated offense that somehow the filter doesn't catch, I will manually blacklist you.
- For SUBMISSIONS: Begging for special exceptions/treatment, submitting during a closed submission period, submitting especially offensive, gross, or disgusting pastas (graphic depections of abuse, sexual violence, beastiality, pornographic stories, etc), saying that you are submitting an unfinished work "just for feedback" – in the submission or in response to rejection/Crappypasta posting – or otherwise admitting to wasting my time/clogging up the queue with unfinished work, sending me abusive or offensive comments because your pasta wasn't accepted or read "quickly enough" for your tastes, harassing me about the status of your pasta – these are all now included in the zero-tolerance, one-strike-and-you're-out policy. If you do ANY of these things, your pasta will be deleted and you will be added to the submission queue block list.
While not a "one strike and you're out" thing, multiple instances of spamming the submit queue will get you banned. This means that if you submit the same pasta over and over again across multiple days (to be clear, a cluster of cloned submissions that are more likely a result of the form or site giving errors does not count – I won't punish people for what is almost certainly an error on my server's end – I'm aware that sometimes the site gives people an error message even though their comment or submission actually did complete correctly. I'm talking about people who submit the same pasta on multiple days because they didn't get a response within one day and think that means they need to fill the queue with their pasta over and over again until they get their response) or resubmit something that has been posted on Crappypasta WITHOUT making any edits or changes, you run the risk of earning a permanent ban. If you only do it once, I might let it slide, but if it becomes apparent that you're simply ignoring all rules and just submitting your pasta over and over and over without any actual respect for the guidelines, your submission will be deleted and you will be banned. In most cases, you will receive a warning asking you to stop your spamming. However, if you've spammed to an extreme point (ie, you've clearly been spam submitting over a long period of time and I didn't notice it until later), I may skip that step completely and just ban you.
- This does NOT include separate submissions. Submitting, say, five DIFFERENT stories over the course of a submission period is perfectly okay. I am referring to people who submit THE SAME EXACT PASTA multiple times simply because they didn't read the FAQ and don't understand/don't care that they are not guaranteed an instant response.
- Submitting REWRITES and EDITED VERSIONS of your pasta that was either rejected or previously posted on Crappypasta is okay and encouraged. What will get you banned is resubmitting THE SAME EXACT PASTA that was already rejected and/or posted on Crappypasta. This is stupid, pointless, and only clogs up the queue.
If you have somehow managed to trigger the Sucuri auto-ban (you'll know as the site will direct you to a page telling you that you have been blocked by Sucuri; if you don't see this page, you are not IP banned), in most cases you don't need to do anything – it will automatically clear within a day or two. However, if the ban persists and you believe it's in error, use the Contact Us form to let me know. MAKE SURE TO PROVIDE YOUR IP ADDRESS, otherwise I cannot do anything about it. If I look into it and believe it was the filter being overzealous, I will give you a one-time courtesy and unblock you. However, if you ever trigger the autoban again, it will be final. Likewise, if I look into your blocked IP's history and find anything suspicious or questionable about the way you've been accessing the site, I will let the ban stay in place.
I reserve the right to change or add on to this list as I see fit; unfortunately, I cannot foresee every obnoxious thing that people will do. However, if someone does do something that necessitates an addition to this list, I WILL add it here so that other people are aware of what not to do.
Bans and blacklists can EASILY be avoided by simply reading the FAQ and remembering to treat both myself and other community members with respect and decency. It's really not that hard!

Sinking Feeling, Boat Storage gone bad
KBd posted a topic in Consumer Services & DisputesMy boat was put into storage for the winter. My brand new boat...1 yr old. While in storage something happened to ruin the finish on my boat and the rails ( acid wash dripped down and sat on the surfaces apparently). The covers were also a mess but they were cleaned and I was told that they would repair my bat and make me 'whole again' They were to order the parts and would let me know when they were available. They said I could take my boat until the parts came in or they could wait and perform the services after the season. I never got any word on the parts through the summer. I brought my boat i and they said it would be repaired over the winter ( current season). I have called the service manager and sent emails without response. I held off my current season storage bill until they threatened collection. I finally spoke with him and he assured me that he would return my call by the end of the day. No return call. I have been a reasonable person and have not received any information other than they don't represent that line anymore ( not my issue) . I need legal advice. Is this a consumer issue, negligence issue and what can be done about it. I have all email chains and photos of my boat

Remember Victory Gardens? The "do your part" movement to help the war effort, your country and community by conserving, rationing and growing vegetables in your back yard? The cool thing about a Victory Garden was that you could make one anywhere. A sunny porch stoop, a little raised bed tucked at the side of the house - anywhere!
I went to visit a friend this weekend and her husband was at Home Depot picking up wood for a raised vegetable bed. They're going to build a little raised plot in their backyard for veggies, fruits and herbs. I really really want to do this in my yard. I also want to start a little compost bin. Since my diet is leaning to the mostly raw side of life, a veggie garden would be awesome. I have never done anything like this before, and I'm a little freaked out at the prospect. But I figure if I do my research and start small, it won't be so scary.
|source unknown to me
To get inspired, I've got "Animal, Vegetable, Mineral" on my reading list. I've picked it up before and loved the first 40 pages or so, but as with so many good books in my life, I never quite get back to them. I think its time to pick up Ms. Kingsolver again.

Conquering Phoenicia, NY
Awhile back I visited Phoenicia, NY. We had found a small AirBNB right on the corner of Main Street, and it was an amazing trip. Phoenicia is a small town in New York with a population of less than 400 people. There's actually quite a bit to do in Phoenicia, NY, but this blog article is meant to kind of document my time there. Where is Phoenicia, NY? Phoenicia is about two hours outside of…Read More »
What Are The Health Benefits Of Yoga?
Years ago, I tried yoga for the first time. Like many people, I was really skeptical as to whether or not it would actually do anything for me. As it turns out, there are some pretty unbelievable health benefits of yoga. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't give yoga a chance because they don't have a solid understanding of what it is. In fact, before I tried yoga, I had only ever heard people say…Read More »

I highly recommend learning about essential oils, some common uses, and how they can be used. Especially if you're battling mental illness, essential oils are a great way to give yourself a bump in the right direction. What are essential oils? Essential oils are really just extracts…Read More »
Effective Communication In Relationships
Effective communication in relationships isn't easy to come by. A lack of communication is a very common barrier to a lot of relationships. I think part of the problem, honestly, is that people don't know how to talk about their feelings. It's difficult, so they make fun of it, and that influences a lot of other people to do the same. Effective communication in relationships isn't about sitting down every night and having a heart-felt…Read More »

Dealing With Lost Motivation
Have you lost motivation? It happens to the best of us. Motivation can absolutely fluctuate – throughout the day, week, year, or even throughout your life. This is something that becomes very apparent when you consider that some people are easily motivated while others need to put in quite a bit of work for just a tiny bit of motivation. Especially if you're suffering from mental health disorders, motivation doesn't always come naturally. The concept…Read More »

Managing Anticipatory Anxiety
Suffering from anxiety isn't easy, especially when it's anticipatory anxiety. I remember years ago I heard the term "anticipatory anxiety" for the first time during a therapy session. I had no idea what it was, but it was a concept that made perfect sense. Just being aware of this concept and knowing what it was made a difference for me. Eventually, this meant that I was able to start to focus on recognizing it and…Read More »

Why You Should Use An Exercise Video

What is Internet Marketing?
My interest in internet marketing really sparked at the age of fourteen. At the time, I knew something was different about me, mentally, but I really didn't know what. I pretty much only knew that I was different and that whatever was going on would most likely interfere with my ability to live a "normal" lifestyle – which is how I ended up finding internet marketing. What is internet marketing? Internet marketing has a ton…Read More »
Being Successful
Success is not a one-size-fits-all thing, and I think that a lot of people really forget that. Often times we're reminded of the outline society gives us for being successful: go to college, get a degree, marry, start a career, have kids, be financially sound by the time you're 25 – 30, and then settle down. The problem is, this model implies that success is something you can only achieve while you're in your early…Read More »

What Does Exercise Do To Your Brain?
We're all aware of the most basic benefit of exercise: a more athletic body. It's incredibly common to find someone who is exercising solely for the physical benefits – and there's nothing wrong with that, for a lot of people that works and it's enough. But I've personally found that it's portrayed as this purely physical feat, and it's not – exercise has a lot to do with your mentality, especially when you're depressed. But…Read More »

Chef's Corner: Richard Sandoval
Find out about your favorite chefs in our Chef's Corner column. This month, restaurant writer Dai Huynh interviews chef Richard Sandoval.
Chef Richard Sandoval racks up about 300,000 air miles annually. That's roughly 12 trips around the globe.
With 45 restaurants and lounges around the world, Mexican-raised Sandoval is a superstar. Recently, he opened Bayou & Bottle, in the lobby of the Four Seasons Houston (1300 Lamar). The bourbon-and-whiskey concept is his first Texas endeavor. Known as the "King of Latin Fusion," he opted instead for an abbreviated, modern, American platform of small plates and a few entrees for Houston. The real stars are the 100-plus bourbons and whiskeys savored in a mid-century modern "living room" accented by rich walnut, European gray oak, onyx and Carrara marble.
Hours before boarding a plane to inspect his three restaurants in Dubai, he took time out to talk.
With restaurants in beautiful resorts and your free miles, you must take the family on great vacations.
You know the worst thing about it all? I have restaurants in all these great resorts, but we don't go on vacation while there; I go to work. I can't disconnect. I'm always observing, judging.
Would you say that your grandmother, Maruca, introduced you to the love of food?
Absolutely. In our culture, in Mexico, family is important. On weekends, our entire family would get together at my grandparents' home. If you can imagine this long table with about 20 people, and my grandmother would sit at the head of the table. She and her cooks have been cooking six, seven courses all morning, and there I was, a young boy of 8 or 9, watching what they were doing.
What was the most important thing you learned from your grandmother about good cooking?
She and the maids were always tasting. They weren't cooking from recipes; they were cooking by taste, and that's the most important thing that I've passed on to my chefs. When you cook from a recipe, you're not going to be a good cook because ingredients are always changing.
You published "Modern Mexican Flavors" in 2002, five years after opening Maya on the Upper East Side of New York City. Do you remember what those first few months were like?
It was hard. I was two months from closing. Many people traveled to Acapulco, and all they saw were tequila, shooters, tacos, nachos and combination plates. What they probably had was Tex-Mex. People would say, "Why would I spend $50 at Maya when I can spend $10 at Margaritaville?"
Now, whenever I see (New York Times restaurant critic) Ruth Reichl, I say thank you because she changed the direction of my life. She knew Mexican food and wrote a great review. Maya was the first Mexican restaurant that got 2 stars from The New York Times, and we went from doing 25-30 covers a night to doing 250 every single night thereafter and for the next five years.
Through the years, you've partnered with some high-profile individuals. You and Plácido Domingo opened critically acclaimed Pampano on East 49th Street in New York.
I knew Plácido and his family while I was working in Acapulco at my father's restaurant. He has a compound there, and his family would gather there. When I opened Maya, he would periodically come in to eat.
Why did you opt for a bourbon-and-whiskey modern American concept, rather than a tequila-inspired venue?
There are so many good Mexican restaurants here. To do another Mexican or Latin concept here just didn't make sense.
If this was someone's first visit to Bayou & Bottle, what recommendations would you give them?
The oxtail and bone marrow. It's a braised oxtail with bone marrow. That's one of my favorites, especially in cold weather. Another favorite dish is the scallop with brown butter, sunchoke, and pears.
Bayou & Bottle features many rare whiskeys and bourbons, but you are a tequila and mezcal fan. Do you have a favorite tequila, and can you give us your recipe for a perfect margarita?
I personally like to put a little mezcal float on top to give it a nice smokiness. I use a blanco rather than añejo or reposado tequila. I put in about 2 ounces of fresh lemon or lime, a tablespoon of simple syrup, a tablespoon of quarto and an ounce of tequila.

The main Loy Krathong celebration in Bangkok has been held at Asiatique since 2013. Perviously it was held along the banks of Wat Saket in the Old City, which is still a popular place to celebrate. For anyone around Khao San Road, head to the nearby Phra Athit Pier.
Many hotels in Bangkok host a Loy Krathong event at their swimming pool area (contact your hotel for more information). You can try your hand at Loy Krathong, or even the traditional 'Ram Wong' dance, without fighting your way through crowds of people outside the hotel grounds. Hotels located along the Chao Phraya River are especially popular and often have loy krathong events combined with a special dinner and fireworks.

Mirela came up to Ames last weekend to take senior photos during Sunday afternoon, and we started the session off on ISU's campus as there was still a little bit of fall colors left.
The light shining through the leaves created a fantastic effect and mood for these photos.
The golden glow is absolutely fantastic!
We then moved out to a small park east of campus only about 3-5 minutes by car. This cobblestone staircase made for a neat setting as a backdrop!
Walking back towards the road, we got some neat photos on the bridge only slightly blocking traffic on it momentarily!
Mirela started to put some attitude in these photos that made them stand out with an impact and a bit of her own personality. She has some great sense of style as well!
We then went out under the railroad bridge as the other bridge I had planned on using was under construction. The graffiti worked well for getting a grungy look that went well with her change of outfits.
After this location, we went downtown to get two great locations! This one with the ivy wall turned out amazing! Certainly, it is one of my favorite portraits I have taken ever!
This spiral staircase was nearby, and we had gotten permission a week prior to shoot on it by the owner which I am glad we did! This is another great photo from the day!
The final location we went to was out north of Ames to a lake. This photo in the grass was an impromptu shoot that we quickly did after getting out of the cars.
We then went onto a dock quickly before getting the big planned sunset shot! Glad we did because it turned out great!
Here are the photos we had been waiting to get. Mirela loves sunsets, and we had to get a great unique photo with her there. Luckily, the sunset was absolutely perfect!
A happy accident from the shoot where my flash didn't fire, and we got a silhouette of her against the sunset.
We brought along a golden fabric for her to hold and stand out even more in the surreal sunset! I could not be any happier with how this turned out!
At the end of the day, we had many amazing photos that Mirela and her family can have to document her senior year! Absolutely fantastic girl and family I am so happy to have had the opportunity to be their photographer!

23 time Grand Slam winner from United States of America Serena Williams caused a controversy on the courts yesterday by accusing the referee of being biased and a 'thief' in the final match of the US Open. Up against Serena was 20th seed, Naomi Osaka, who became the first person of Japanese origin to win a Grand Slam. The match held at Flushing Meadows in New York will sadly be remembered for all the wrong reasons, Osaka had managed to beat Serena at every aspect of the game. But sadly the takeaway from the game which the spectators both on and off court are going to leave with will be the spectacle of an angry Serena abusing the referee and smashing her own racquet on the ground. Truly, a very irresponsible act of arrogance and disrespect on the all important finale of the US Open women's event by the tennis star.
You cannot continue to degrade a person and expect them not to finally pounce back. @serenawilliams has consistently displayed perseverance and grace but she is not to be made a fool of. "Let this be a remind to all… I don't cheat to win, I'd rather lose." #usopen pic.twitter.com/5Vwlebh7yx
— Ryan Jamaal Swain (@RyanJamaal) September 8, 2018
The first time Serena lost her cool was when the referee gave her a code violation after her coach Patrick Mouratoglou was signalling her from the stands, something which is not allowed in a one to one sport like tennis. Mouratoglou later on admitted that he had indeed been signalling to Serena some tactics while the game was on but went on to add that Serene might not have looked at him. The referee's act therefore was justified and the code violation was well deserved irrespective of whether she had been looking at her coach or not.
The next big fall for Serena Williams happened when she lost her cool and smashed her racquet on the ground, destroying it completely. The American player did not need any provocation from outside as the loss of a serve was enough for her to break her racquet; this earned her another code violation from the referee. The crowd had started booing, trying to get behind their favourite star and to get back at the referee. Serena started shouting , "I have never cheated in my life. I have a daughter and I stand for what's right for her. I have never cheated." She then did the unthinkable, targeting the referee and calling him a thief and a 'liar', "You stole a point from me. You are a thief," Serena said. "You are a liar. You will never be on a court of mine as long as you live. When are you going to give me my apology? Say you are sorry", she went on to add in a frenzy. Referee Ramos had no option other than terming it as a violation, her third one in a final match and that too when she was the favourite of the fans. Verbally abusing a match official earned her the penalty of a game from the referee who was at a loss of words.
What is surprising is how the left dominated media houses have chosen to side with Serena and term the referee a bigot who discriminated against the player. The referee did nothing wrong here, he made sure the game was played according to the rules and penalised Serena for her rude and loud behaviour on the tennis court. She could have chosen to be an inspiration by winning her 24th Grand Slam graciously, and the first one after becoming a mother. But sadly she chose to hide her inefficiencies in the tennis court behind rage and chose to target the referee by playing woman and victim card all at once. Naomi Osaka who comes from mixed Haiti-Japanese origin was the real sufferer, another woman being harassed by a woman's actions and this time on a court, despicable behaviour indeed.

- E" 37-year-old mom and entrepreneur
"From the very start of our session, Zelda went straight to the heart of my emotional blocks. Before even getting on the treatment table, she spoke to my desires for personal development in a gentle, compassionate and loving way – it felt like the sister I never had was giving me a heart-to-heart talk. On the table she pinpointed where I held emotional patterns in my body and helped me work through them with breath and sound. She planted seeds of positive change in my psyche that are still ringing in my ears and guiding me on a path of self-discovery and fulfillment. This kind of healing work is unlike anything else I've experienced – it was an eye-opening and soul-affirming session and the insights continue to resonate and unfold before me."
"V" 80 year-old Manager
It is a repair job. You give the body an opportunity to repair it self by doing at least 3 things. The big repair is the strong breathing for an hour; that fixed my blocked nose. The second repair was the arthritic shoulder caused by a neck injury; you grabbed it and made me breath into it – repaired. The third thing is my posture – repaired. Wonderful! My trip home on the subway was great – I could breath! Not only that but I felt wonderful during the massage with all the kind words. The only way you could get me to breathe that way for so long was to put me in a trance – fun! You got the results that you figured out I needed without my telling you. You're very smart, intuitive and cautious.
"F" 41 year-old Doctor
From the deep breathing and visualization exercises to the expert bodywork, Zelda makes the stress disappear and provides a great state of relaxation.
"P" 60 year-old Legal Specialist
"The warm strokes of your fingers felt like they were not only on the exterior of my body, but I felt for long periods of time during the session that your strokes were moving within my body following my every breath. The session was a unique, professional, invigorating and totally relaxing experience. Thank you! Trust we can meet again."
"M" 61 year-old Educator/Artist
"Zelda has developed a practice of massage and breathing techniques that are very effective both physically and emotionally. She soothed me while simultaneously and playfully pushing me to deepen my own connection with my body through touch and sound. The practice simultaneously lifts, expands and relaxes, and she fulfills the vivid promise of her website. Among Zelda's greatest gifts is that fact that she is blessed with what in some traditions are called "healing hands". Zelda's hands brim with healing energy, power and strength that are unmistakable upon her touch. Zelda's touch goes well beyond good massage and conveys what can only be learned through years of diverse study and practice that build upon inherent talent and ability. I definitely plan to experience the deeply healing, loving and very sensual presence of Zelda on a regular basis. My session with Zelda was deeply satisfying, joyful and rewarding. I left our session feeling loved, nurtured, relaxed and energized in a way that has stayed with me for days. Thank you!
"K" 25 year-old Accountant
I loved the breathing. You were right – it vibrated through my body. And your voice. And the smells – all the smells were really wonderful, and they helped me relax. At the end I was so relaxed, I felt like rubber.
"R" 45 year-old Cantor
"Zelda is one of the finest healers I have ever come in contact with (and I have come in contact with a lot!) Her hands hold deep knowledge, as does her mind, her heart, and her eyes. If you are looking for new ways to move through your life and the life of your body, I can thnk of few better guides. If you wish to relax physically and begin healing on a deeper level, Zelda can help you there as well. I found our sessions tremendously informative, refreshing, and fun. I laughed almost as much as a sighed. I even slept a bit during. In a world full of semi-informed healers, Zelda is the real thing. And particularly for people of faith, she is incredible — weaving her deep faith with that of her client, and helping us both to move higher."
(Information withheld by request)
"As someone who is dealing with the beginning stages of Parkinson's disease, I realized that I am blocking my feelings and I need to let go. I never realized it before, but I learned today that breathing is important. It isn't easy for me to feel my feelings and breathe, but I see that I have to do it. Thank you!"
"J" 33 year-old Marketing Rep
Breathing through Anxiety, taking in Blessing, Offering Praise. You are a doctor.
"U" 35-year-old Salesman
"Usually I can't relax – and I was VERY relaxed. The session was inspirational and joyful!"
From "R" 39 year-old Socio-Cultural Analyst
"I enjoyed the time that we shared together on Saturday – it was well worth the 5-hour drive to see you. In fact it was one of the most awesome experiences that I had ever had. Every morning when I wake up and every night when I go to sleep I say the words you suggested out loud to myself – and I can feel a profound difference already. I don't know how you can see right through people but you saw through me and appreciate your gentle words and kindness to help me release some pain and fear that I had been going through. Hopefully we can get together again in the near future."
From "S" 62 year-old Engineer
Thanks for a great time together yesterday. You are truly a great find. Take it from someone who has been there, done that, Zelda will not disappoint; she is creative, and attentive to your needs. She will guide you to that special place you've been thinking about and be there for you.
"S" 35-year-old Insurance Salesman
"I could feel the loving in your touch. You purged me of everything negative and you brought in divine healing light."
"D" 34-year-old Engineer
"Although the deep breathing and sounding was difficult for me at first, by the end of the session I felt more awareness and more self-acceptance – and I really felt and was open to your loving tenderness."
"C" 42 year-old Customer Sales Rep
"Thank you very much for taking such great care of me today. I sincerely appreciate you being caring and attentive to my physical self, my breath and, most importantly, my well-being. Your focus on touch and awareness of my presence made my experience very relaxing and soothing. I felt so safe and secure in your very capable hands and my journey was spot on perfect."
"E" 41-year-old Financial Professional
"I had my first session with Zelda earlier this week and was pleasantly surprised by her comforting and nurturing ways. Some people are naturally gifted in what they pursue and she is definitely a gift to behold. The entire session I felt enveloped in her warm, sensuous presence."
"S" 45-year old Salesman
"Zelda: I loved the way you touched me, strong and oh so soft. And you really listened to me. And listening to your voice was so soothing. You have a great aura! It was a great experience. I'll be back once a week, or at least a couple of times a month. Thank you Zelda!"
"J" 48 year-old Insurance Executive
"Thank you so very much for way more than I could have ever expected. Your attention and listening skills were very apparent from our short phone conversation. From the moment I arrived, I felt relaxed and safe in your care. I must say that although I have had many a massage in my travels I have never been so completely cared for and encouraged during a session before. Thanks Zelda!"
From "H" 35 year-old Post Production Assistant
"I felt relaxed the moment we met. Her energy, charm, and personality will start to release your stress way before the fun begins with the most amazing and relaxing massage I've ever had. I completely recommend Zelda. She's amazing … Hope to see you soon again!"
From "N" 25 year-old Licensed Massage Therapist
"As a Massage Therapist and energy healer, I must say, Zelda has the power to heal you in more ways then one. From the moment you step into her world … it becomes your world too. She's very engaged in client satisfaction from the beginning to the end, encouraging you to speak out if anything feels uncomfortable and especially if something feels good. Zelda knows her stuff, she pinpoints any stress areas and really works on them making you feel relaxed, both physically and emotionally. My experience with Zelda allowed me to become vulnerable, my mental guard was let down which gave way to an unforgettable experience. My body was shaking and thrashing with delight as her hands guided themselves to where attention was most needed. Overall, I had an immense experience that's sure to repeat itself when I'm in need for some grounding and attention."
From "B" 62 year-old Business Manager
"It was a great pleasure to put myself into the loving and competent hand of Zelda.From the moment I entered her quirkily decorated studio, I felt her confidence and discernment. She was extraordinarily welcoming, with her 1000-watt smile, brilliant eyes and sweet voice. Her touch was compelling, allowing me to completely surrender to her and it. Any problems I might have had in fully receiving (pretty much the point of her sessions) melted away. Her practiced hands went right to the places that were tight or needed attention. She was, by turns, deep, nurturing, and teasing and loving. Her attention to detail and to specifically me put me in a trance of relaxation.When the bodywork was over, she insisted I remain on her table for a few minutes rather than getting right up. I was thus able to experience a beautiful return journey from Zelda's land of love to my daily self. Many thanks, Zelda!"
From "M" 25 year-old IT Technician
"I'm practicing my exercises whenever I get a chance. A big part of my new job is to greet customers and sell products, which is helping me a lot and will help me a lot in future too – so your suggestions are right on target and very practical and helpful. I'm still trying to figure out what kind of magic was in your hands. It was something very new and amazing!"
From "T" 46 year-old Computer Programmer
"Zelda:You have a directness in communication that fit extremely well with my own communication style. You got me. You got me quickly. I felt like you were able to absorb in 15 minutes what other therapists had taken years at a time to discern. Your advice was clear and had that quality of being simple and powerful. You left me with specific ways to approach my life that made me feel more empowered. You possess a balance of confidence and wonder that instilled the same in me. I was envisioning a wonderful future with your guidance. The bodywork was very in tune with what I needed. What could easily be a situation of self-consciousness was instead very relaxed and meaningful. I felt like your student and your peer.Beyond what was such a physically fulfilling experience was a highly spiritual inner experience I was having. I felt loved by the universe, and respected by you. I could have laid there all-night and talked about life and the world.That night I felt like something big had happened, an opportunity for spiritual growth and/or shift. This feeling continues today as your positive messages continue to resonate with me. Your warm love is still resonating too. I am deeply thankful for your presence and presents! I look forward to our paths intersecting again.Love and peace to you Zelda"
From "A" Dancer
"Zelda works from a natural intuitive gift for healing. There is no pretense, no mumbo-jumbo. She is a regular person who happens to have a gift for understanding the deep-rooted problems that block our energy and keep us from living the lives we dream of living. Her understated, easy demeanor made me feel at home right away. While she worked on me I saw beautiful images as she miraculously spoke words that my heart needed to hear. I could feel energy in my body; I felt doubt and anxiety leave me as they were replaced by a sense of peace and certainty that I haven't felt in years. I would definitely recommend Zelda to anyone who feels anxious or spiritually cluttered. She doesn't as much heal you as put you on the right path toward healing yourself."
From "M" USPS Postal Carrier
"I just wanted to write and thank you once again for the incredible healing session the other night. I have gone for quite a few massages in my life but none compare to yours. The way you incorporate touch with music, breathing and sound techniques was absolutely an original and amazing experience. Not only are you great at what you do but you also have a great personality. I felt completely comfortable and look forward to coming again and again. I will be a repeat client as I feel there is still much more to experience. When our session was over I didn't know how to put into words the way I felt. Obviously I was in a totally relaxed state but now I think the best way to describe my feeling was being totally weightless. I felt as though I shed my heavy body for a new ultra lightweight one :). It really goes to show you what everyday stresses do to you both mentally and physically. After you relieved all the stress and tension I felt like a completely different person."
From "R" IT Technician
"You are open and clear about the connection between physical and emotional being and able to see what needs to be healed simply by what you feel from your hands. You have an ability – a true gift – along with the experience and willingness to be fully open and in tune with other people's energy. I felt at ease and totally relaxed with you in less than five minutes, which allowed me to trust you. This put me in a total state of relaxation. Something I needed for the longest as I have battling multiple injuries for many years. You are truly a special person with a gift that only the few who finds you will experience. You are very in tune with you gift and know how to share your heal to gift with the sick. Thank you for showing me how I need to heal and get back in touch with my body and emotions. Sometimes chronic pain can really take you off track. Thank you for seeing me. : ) PS you seem like a great person to hang with also … LOL"
From "C" Navy Recruiter
"I was so very pleasantly surprised by meeting you – you are a beautiful one! It was a true pleasure to experience such a unique session. Though I might the quiet one, I enjoyed every minute of it! I felt a great sense of relief that lasted into the evening. You will be seeing me soon for another session for sure. Thank you again for your kindness and all those wise words, and for inviting me in your space. Blessings."
From "D" Non-Profit Director
"I very much appreciate the space you hold during the "sacred massage"—the intention, energy, environment, and experience. Knowing it was ok to cry while you did work to help me physically release was very helpful. You create a healing environment that brings body and spirit together, working with your hands, sound, and shamanistic tools/energy work to shift pain (physical and psychological) to foster healing and restoration in a highly caring and attentive environment."
From "G" 50 year-old Real Estate Agent
"After 25 years of work, kids and married life I found myself with everything one would want, however I knew something was missing and that I had lost a piece of who I am. I was fortunate to have stumbled upon Zelda and without reservation made an appointment - it was just what the "doctor" ordered! She made me feel comfortable immediately with her sweet smile and loving eyes. She had me lie down on her table, showed me how to breath, massaged my body and stimulated my mind. I felt myself slipping into an almost dream like state as she touched and spoke to me. Zelda is very intuitive and built on everything I shared during our session, leading me to see what I have been doing to myself over the years. After one appointment I feel a positive change. Looking forward to seeing her again soon!

WASHINGTON, D.C., March 12, 2015 — The Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute (CFSEI) has published a new Technical Note titled "Design for Splicing of Cold-Formed Steel Wall Studs" (Tech Note W106-15), the latest in its continuing series of instructional documents on topics related to cold-formed steel framing for commercial and residential construction.
This Technical Note covers design methods for the splicing of two cold-formed steel studs in a curtain wall or interior nonstructural wall condition. Splicing of wall studs may be required in the field to extend studs to the required length. The discussion covers the two most common types of splices used in cold-formed steel construction—the back-to-back splice and the track-capped splice. Design examples for both types of splices are included.
CFSEI Technical Note W106-15, "Design for Splicing of Cold-Formed Steel Wall Studs," is available free of charge to CFSEI members, and is available for purchase by non-members from the AISI Online Store at https://shop.steel.org/c/48/cfsei-tech-notes. For more information on joining CFSEI, visit www.cfsei.org.
CFSEI maintains a Steel Framing Hotline to answer inquiries from construction professionals seeking cold-formed steel solutions for their projects. Suggestions for additional Technical Note topics are welcomed. The Steel Framing Hotline is accessible at 1-800-79-STEEL.
The Cold-Formed Steel Engineers Institute comprises hundreds of structural engineers and other design professionals who are finding a better way to produce safe and efficient designs for commercial and residential structures with cold-formed steel. CFSEI members work together to develop and evolve industry standards and design methods, produce and issue technical bulletins, and provide seminars and online training to improve the knowledge and skills base of engineers and design professionals.
