up to their duty threatening to
shoot dead the first man who
attempted to force an entrance

doned the undertaking giving
it up as a bad job.
The Marim says-Trimble
is a bad man he committed a
crime which will aroiue any

was a grave mistake in attempt-
ing to inflict summary punish-

placing at datiauce the laws of

his trial according to law and
will be sure to reecive that jus-
tice which the enormity of tlie

The people are foreif
monarchies of the old wbrld to
relax their holds on the throttle

a monarchy in name than in

France is a republic an infant
it is true but give her time ;
she will grow to the .symmetrical
stature of a republic after a

BUENA PARK – Mayor Fred Smith and Buena Park police officials agree that an officer pulled Smith over Monday night as he drove along La Palma Avenue near Buena Park Downtown.
The agreement stops there. Police say Smith didn't stay in his lane. Smith said one of the officers was trying to set him up for a DUI arrest, retaliation for City Council actions Smith has taken in the past that displeased the officers' union.
The citation shows that Officer T. Reyes stopped Smith just before 8:30 p.m. near the corner of La Palma and Stanton avenues. The citation says Smith was "lane straddling," and violated California Vehicle Code 21658(a).
"The mayor was stopped. They conducted a typical traffic stop investigation," Police Chief Tom Monson said. "He was cited and released."
Smith, appointed as mayor last week, attended a party on Monday evening and got stopped on his way home. Smith believes officers followed him from the time he left the party, trying to catch him under the influence. Smith said he did nothing wrong.
"I don't drink," Smith said. "Not even wine or beer." All he had in his system, he said, was Diet Coke and fish oil.
Despite that, Smith said the officer told him that he smelled alcohol, and put Smith through sobriety tests.
Smith said all this took place because he voted to have Capt. Corey Sianez take Monson's place when Monson retires in March, a decision Smith said is unpopular with some officers. Smith also voted last year to have video cameras installed in police cruisers.
Smith voted for that item, he said, because "We've had a couple of heavy-handed cops."
The Buena Park Police Department has been the subject of litigation alleging officers crossed the line during stops. In 2007, the city agreed to pay a $5 million settlement to the family of Juan Herrera, who police shot and killed after a pursuit in 2004.
Was Smith targeted?
"It's my understanding that the officer was surprised to see who he stopped," Monson said.
When he saw Reyes step out of the patrol car, "I knew I was screwed," Smith said. "Reyes is part of that group."
Reyes was off-duty on Tuesday afternoon and could not be reached for comment.
During the stop Smith hurled obscenities at the officer.
"I already knew he was going to write me a ticket for something, so the only thing I could do is belittle him," Smith said. "They can do whatever they want. They won't break me."
Video cameras captured the confrontation, including when another officer stepped in to apologize for Reyes' behaviour, Smith said.
Monson would not release the video or audio, saying they were evidence in the case.

What is it Like to be with a Pure Devotee?
by Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayan Maharaja
[Submitted by Vrndavana dasa (of Govinda's Juices in Honolulu, Hawaii)]
June 2, 2001: Surely one is blessed to be with some one who has, and is generously giving, the most valuable objective, and the means to attain it, without a need or desire for anything in return. Giving everything, in need of nothing, a pure manifestation of love, the suddha-bhaktas come only to help us. Devotees in Washington D.C., inspired by Srila Bhakltivedanta Narayana Maharaja's sweet hari-katha and resplendent presence, went on nagara-sankirtana in the streets of the nation's capital today. The onlookers gathered in hundreds, with smiles, curiosity and wonder, taking pictures and videos as devotees danced in ecstasy. With the White House in the background, twenty or more teenagers, caught up in the euphoria, danced along with the devotees. It was obvious to all that the Lord was smiling to see so many happily engage in His service, in a place that is suffering from a lack thereof. It was so apparent that there was some very special energy in that transcendental sound, as so many onlookers were so attracted to the devotees. By following the orders of the Lord's pure devotee, Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja, the devotees carried his transcendental shakti in to the hearts and minds of all who could hear. Few could resist the sweet sound of the maha-mantra.
From May 29-June 4, just outside Washington, a wonderful facility in the peaceful and natural setting of Prince William Forest Park was chosen to accommodate the devotees who had come there from all over the world. There, Srila Narayana Maharaja spoke of the sweet pastimes of Bala Krsna, which melted hearts to tears. Forty devotees took the opportunity to ask for spiritual guidance by formally becoming his disciples. They surrendered themselves to him, confident that he could save them from the scorching fire of the material existence. Srila Narayana Maharaja carefully accepted their request and promised to deliver their hearts to the lotus feet of Radha and Krsna.
Several dramas were performed, and Srila Maharaja especially liked the play of Sri Gangamata Gosvamini. It's the story of a beautiful girl who led an exemplary life of renunciation, and attained perfection in womanhood by following in the footsteps of Srila Rupa Gosvamipada. Srila Maharaja was impressed that the devotees knew this story. When he asked how they knew, they said they had heard it from a lecture he had previously given in Australia. He was pleased to see their eagerness to grasp his message. The following is a transcription of the lecture that inspired the drama, given in Murwillambah, Australia, on Jan 14, 2000.
Gangamata Gosvamini
There was a beautiful girl in East Bengal named Saci devi. She was the daughter of the King of Putiya. From the beginning of her life she heard about Krsna and gave her whole heart to Him. From the time she was about five years old, she used to worship Krsna, sing to Krsna, play with Krsna, and do everything with Him. When she was about sixteen years old she became mad for Him.
Saci devi was not only beautiful, but she was very intelligent and she used to also study Sanskrit and Bengali. Her father and mother were very worried for her marriage, but she refused totally. She told her father, "My marriage has already been done. There is no need of another marriage. Don't be worried. I will go to Vrndavana and I will meet my beloved there."
She took her Deities and was ready to go to Vrndavana alone, on foot, which was a three to four thousand mile journey. There were no airplanes or any modern conveniences in those days. She was preparing to go by foot, but her father arranged everything.
Don't waste your time. Remain in your positions. If you are married, that is okay. If you are not married, if you are renounced, that is okay. If you are not renounced, that is okay. But hear hari-katha wherever you are and in whatever position you are.
Having come to Vrndavana and being mad for Krsna, she began searching for Him everywhere, wandering here and there. She would go to Vamsivata and ask that Vamsivata banyan tree: "Where is Krsna? Can you tell me where is Krsna?" There was a disciple of a very exalted devotee named Hari Dasa, and he was in the line of Srila Rupa Gosvami. He was always chanting and remembering Krsna. He was also giving classes, just as I give in the evenings, and all Vrajavasis and saints and sadhus in our line would attend. Saci devi also used to hear the classes, and she was attracted. She told him, "I am taking your asraya, shelter. Please give me initiation, otherwise I will die. I want to see Krsna, and I want serve Krsna and Radha." Hearing this, he was so much happy. Though he never wanted to initiate anyone, he initiated that beautiful princess.
Hari Dasa then gave Saci devi instructions on how to chant, how to remember, how to practice in the line of Srila Rupa Gosvami, how Krsna is her beloved, and how she should serve Radhika. He told her that her guru will be a manifestation of Visakha devi or Rupa Manjari.
Sri Hari Dasa did not want her to be alone. He told her that there was an elderly lady of about fifty years, and that lady was very matured in hari-bhajana. He placed her in the hands of that devotee, just as Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu placed the hands of Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami in the hands of Sri Svarupa Damodara.
After her initiation, Saci devi was always weeping for Krsna. She used to chant more than one lakh of harinama daily, and she was totally absorbed. Her Guru never gave her any bhajana kutira. Rather he told her, "Oh, you should arrange this yourself. I have nothing to do with these things. You should manage."
Saci devi used to live in a broken temple on the Yamuna ghat, and there she would perform her sadhana-bhajana. She never made any management for taking prasada, but rather she would go from door to door, taking very little madhukari. She would take one forth of one chapatti, not taking all or even half of it. Everyone loved her. They wanted to give her foodstuffs, but she never accepted them. She never wore nice clothing. She wore only warn and torn white cloth, and she was satisfied by this. She had no electricity, and no facilities at all.
Then, by continually hearing and developing her Krsna consciousness, she became totally renounced. When she became twenty-five years old her Gurudeva told her, "You should go to Radha-Kunda, to the place of Raghunatha dasa Gosvami, and do bhajana like him. And also take that nice elderly devotee."
For the next twenty-five years Saci devi remained in the renounced order, doing madhukari (begging) and somehow maintaining her life. There was no problem in maintaining herself, and therefore she used to perform bhajana day and night. She did not sleep, even at night.
After twenty-five years her Guru, now very old, called her and said, "You should now go to Nilacala, near the Gambira of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and you should remain there for some time. There you will become siddha, perfect; so don't delay. Also, you should discover the place of Sarvabhuma Bhattacarya. At present it is in ruins. No one is taking care of it and practically no one knows about its existence. So you should go and discover it, make a very simple temple there, worship there, live there, and you should take the prasadam of Jagannatha.
That elderly lady was now gone, and therefore Saci devi went there alone. Somehow she came in the same way that Sri Sanatana Gosvami came from Vraja Mandala to Jaganatha Puri, traveling for many days on foot. You cannot imagine how she came.
Once in Puri, Saci devi discovered the place of Sarvabhuma Bhattacarya. She made a hut of leaves and began to live there, chanting and remembering Krsna. In the evenings she used to give classes on Rasa Pancadyaya (the five chapters in Srimad Bhagavatam 10th Canto regarding rasa-lila). Sometimes she spoke on Venu-gita, and sometimes on other very important subjects of Srimad Bhagavatam.
When giving class, tears would come to Saci devi's eyes. All the residents of Puri were attracted, and even the King used to come in disguise to hear from her. The King made a proposal: "I want to give something to you. I want to build you a nice hut, and I want to give you a donation." Saci devi refused the donation and said, " I don't want a donation from any king."
One day, on Makhara-sankranti, all were going to take bath in the Ganges, which was hundreds of miles away. At that time Saci devi made up her mind: "I should also go to the Ganges to take bath." She made this determination in her mind, and she was going to go, but at midnight she saw, "Oh, the Ganges is coming." There was a very heavy, roaring current. As though by magic, she found herself in that Ganges, where lakhs and lakhs persons were taking bath. The current in the Ganges took her to the temple of Jagannatha, and then it entered and touched the feet of Jagannatha. [The Ganges originally came from the feet of Jagannathadeva, because He is Krsna Himself. When Sri Vamanadeva took the universe away from Bali Maharaja, His foot went through the universal covering and touched the Causal Ocean. A drop of that Causal Ocean thus came into the universe as the Ganges. It is also said that Ganges is originally a sakhi of Srimati Radhika from Goloka Vrndavana. It can therefore be said that Jagannatha Himself, in the form of the Ganges, picked Saci devi up and brought her to His lotus feet.] She was now there at Jagannatha's feet, and the door was closed. No one else was there.
In the morning the priest came, opened the door, and thousands and thousands of persons came in to take darsana. The priest saw that lady and said, "Oh, why did you came here? To steal the ornaments of Jagannatha?"
Saci devi was absorbed in Krsna, thinking, "Krsna is so merciful. Ganges came to me, made me take bath, and her current took me to the lotus feet of Jagannatha." She could not answer that priest, however. [It is prohibited for a devotee to reveal his or her realizations, and moreover, no one would have believed her.] She was thus taken to jail as if she were a thief.
During the night Jagannatha gave a dream to the King, and also to the prominent pujari. Saci devi would now become famous as Gangamata Thakurani or Gangamata Gosvamini, due to her being carried by the Ganges. Jagannatha told them, "Go at once and beg forgiveness. Bring Gangamata Thakurani in a golden chariot, with drums and all other paraphernalia to make a royal reception and royal procession. Also, you should become a disciple of that lady, along with your priests and all others prominent persons."
The king awoke and at once went to the jail with golden chariots, a large crowd, and a royal reception. He brought her to her cottage and said, "Jagannatha has told me, "You should go and take shelter of that devotee. And, if you do not take initiation from her, I will finish your whole dynasty." Along with all his councilors and others, he now began to fast and pray, "Be pleased to give us initiation very soon." Gangamata Thakurani replied, "My Guru has not told me to do this. I don't want to make any disciples." Jagannatha then ordered her, "For Me, to please Me, you should make disciples." After that she accepted them.
The king then promised, "I will give some land for Sarvabhuma Bhattacaraya, and I will make a very good temple there. I know that you have come from your Gurudeva for this." He made a temple, but Gangamata Thakurani was always living in the temple of her heart. Her temple was there.
She continued to give classes, and all the residents of Puri, as well as the highly elevated devotees, used to attend. One day, while she was absorbed in chanting and remembering the pastimes of Krsna, a brahmana from Jaipur came to her. That brahmana had been serving the Deity of Raya Kisora. Who is Krsna Himself. Krsna had told him in a dream, "You should take me to Puri and give me to Gangamata Thakurani." The Deity continued, "She will serve me. If you don't do this I will curse you. You are not doing proper service to me. Sometimes you give offerings and sometimes not. You sometimes give Me bath and sometimes not. You are not doing service as you were before. So please go there and give Me to her. Otherwise, I will curse you, and your dynasty will also be finished."
That brahmana then took that very beautiful Thakurji in a basket, and walked on foot for many months until he came to Puri. Now he approached Gangamata Thakurani and requested her, "Thakurji has come. Please take Him and serve Him. She refused and said, "I am doing manasi-seva in the line of Srila Rupa Gosvami. I cannot do all this. I have no time to worship and do all these things."
The brahmana became very worried and thought, "What to do?" Gangamata Thakurani had a Tulasi garden. That night the brahmana left the Deity in the midst of her Tulasi garden and fled. At four the next morning, Raya Kisora, that is, Syama Raya, said to Gangamata, "You are neglecting Me. I came to have your service, your love and affection, and you are neglecting me. I'm thirsty; I'm so hungry. So please take me. Prepare something and offer that to Me." Gangamata Thakurani then went to see that Deity. Charmed, and took Him in her arms. She brought Him inside the temple and began worshiping Him there, and still now that vigraha is there.
When the king heard about this, he thought, "I am fortunate to be the disciple of this great devotee."
All the ladies should try to be like Gangamata Thakurani. She never even dreamed of marrying any worldly person. I have come to help you to become a devotee like this. The world is like a fire, a burning forest fire. We have seen such a big fire in Florida. It burned for miles, and the government could not do anything. The burning forest fire of material existence is greater than this. We are in that fire, and we can never be saved as long as we are in material consciousness. If someone puts ghee in the fire, what will happen? It will become bigger. You will not be able to be saved.
The father of Yadu Maharaja, Yayati, had so many very beautiful wives, but he was not satisfied. When he was old he wanted to take the youthful age of his son, but Jadu Maharaja refused and told him, "This life is only meant to serve Krsna. If you were a pure devotee, I would have been very happy to give you my youth." Yayati then asked his second son, Puru. He said, "Puru, you are my very dear, darling son. Please give me your youth. I want to further taste material pleasure. My thirst has not been quenched." Puru replied, "O father, I came from you, and so I'm giving you my youth." Yayati thus became young, and for many thousands of years he engaged in sense gratification. He was not satisfied, however, and one day he thought, "What silly things am I doing?" He quickly returned his youth to his son, and then left everything and went in the forest. This history shows that the world is a burning fire. The fire in the sea is thousands of times greater than the forest fire, and we are in that fire. We should try to know all these truths. Don't waste your time. Try to develop your Krsna Consciousness. If you are married, there is no harm in that. Along with your wife and children you should try to be detached. There must be some sense of duty, but no attachment at all. You should think, "I must serve my wife (or husband) and children because they are eternal servants of Krsna. For this reason I should help them."
Male devotees should try to become like Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami, Srila Sanatana Gosvami, and Srila Rupa Gosvami. Lady devotees should become like Gangamata Thakurani, Jahnava Thakurani, and Hemalata Thakurani. Sometimes Jahnava Thakurani exhibited four arms. [Jahnava Thakurani is the eternal potency of Lord Nityananda. Nityananda has two potencies, Jahnava and Vasuda. The son of Vasuda devi is the incarnation of Godhead, Bhirabhadra, He was searching a guru and was recommended to take shelter of Jahnava Thakurani, but he thought, "She is my mother. How can she be my guru?" One early morning, after passing and just before taking her bath, Jahnava Thakurani was undressed from the waist up, as was the custom for Indian ladies. Bhirabhadra saw her in that condition, standing by a well, and became shy. She immediately manifested two more arms, and with them she covered her breasts. Bhirabhadra then offered his pranama to her and took initiation.]
Don't waste your time. Remain in your positions. If you are married, that is okay. If you are not married, if you are renounced, that is okay. If you are not renounced, that is okay. But hear hari-katha wherever you are and in whatever position you are. Offer pranama to that place where hari-katha is being spoken. Offer pranama to the organisers, and offer satstang-pranama to the speaker and to the whole audience. Then, very soon you will have sadhana-bhakti, bhava-bhakti and prema-bhakti. Try to realize all these things. These are truths.
Gaura premande hari hari bol.

GM Only Bright Spot in June Car Sales with Dramatic 26 Percent Increase, Forecasts Edmunds.com
SANTA MONICA, Calif. — June 27, 2005 —This month's car sales will top 1.57 million units, a 9.4 percent increase over June 2004 (or 5.2 percent when adjusted for the one extra selling day this year), according to Edmunds.com, the premier online resource for automotive information.
The majority of the increase in June will come from General Motors. GM's Employee Discount promotion boosted the automaker's sales by a dramatic 26 percent compared to June 2004 (or 21 percent when adjusted for the number of selling days). Edmunds.com projects that GM will sell more than 475,000 units in June and increase its U.S. market share to over 30 percent. In fact, GM is predicted to be the only major automaker to post a market share gain this month. GM's May 2005 market share was 25.4 percent.
"GM's promotion succeeded not only in generating showroom traffic by creating a sense of urgency for the consumers, but also resulted in a significant market share gain - which is exactly what GM and its dealers needed after several months of declines," observed Jesse Toprak, Edmunds.com Senior Analyst. "The one-price-shopping aspect of the program resulted in a promotion that made car shopping less stressful and simple. We expect GM to extend this promotion at least until the end of July."
Edmunds.com's current research and proprietary statistical models also predict that Chrysler will sell 211,000 units in June, resulting in a market share of 13.4 percent, down from 14.3 percent in May. Ford is predicted to sell 270,000 in June; this would cause Ford's market share to slip to 17.2 percent in June, down from 17.6 percent last month.
Among Japanese automakers, Nissan is predicted to sell more than 99,000 units in June. Nissan's market share is expected to remain in its May level, which was 6.3 percent. Toyota is expected to sell 193,000 units, which would result in the automaker losing market share - from 13.5 percent in May to 12.3 percent in June. Honda is predicted to sell 121,000 units and also lose market share - from 8.2 percent in May to 7.7 percent in June.

Jonny Wilkinson will sit out Newcastle's final Heineken Cup group game at Newport on Friday night.
The England fly-half required 10 stitches after suffering a head wound during Falcons' 17-15 defeat against Leinster in last night's rearranged pool six clash.
Dave Walder is his likely replacement, with Michael Stephenson switching from wing to full-back and fit-again Liam Botham returning in the number 14 jersey.
Scrum-half Gary Armstrong, hooker Nick Makin and prop Marius Hurter are also probable starters.
Like Newcastle, Newport cannot reach the quarter-finals, and they give Shane Howarth an outing at full-back, enabling Matt Pini to take a breather.

2017 has been a huge year of change for me.
After a quite bad 2016, this new year has seen me take steps towards a new life. If you had asked me in January 2016 where I would be next year, I could have never guessed that I would be travelling the world and accomplishing a livelong dream.
So far this year I have quit my 9-5 job, started a new relationship, and I packed my bags to travel around the world on a one-way ticket…and it's only the 7th week of the year.
This trip comes with some expectations and many, many, many question marks. Like many who have gone this path before me, there are many things I would love to get to see and accomplish during my gap year. Some of which I might be able to, and some of which I might have to leave for later.
So here is my travel bucket list for 2017
Like many, I have many destinations in mind. It is a big world out there and there are many sights I still have to see.
- Visit Zhangjiajie National Forest Park (China)
- Hike Mount Huashan (also known as the world's most dangerous hiking – China)
- Teach English in a school (anywhere in Asia)
- Visit the temples in Angkor Wat (Cambodia)
- Ride a motorbike through the streets of Jaisalmer (India)
- See a Bengal tiger in the Sundarbarns National Park (Bangladesh – India)
- Visit Bran Castle (also known as Dracula's Castle) in Transylvania (Romania)
Middle East:
- See the sunrise at Petra (Jordan)
- Visit the Great Pyramid of Giza (Egypt)
- Walk among chimpanzees in Mahale (Tanzania)
- Go back to volunteer at Upendo Face Orphanage (Tanzania)
- Jump off Bloukrans Bridge (South Africa)
- Walk on the Sahara Desert (anywhere in North Africa)
- Get lost in the blue streets of Chefchaouen (Morocco)
What I have crossed off my travel bucket list so far:
- Did an African safari (Tanzania – 2016)
- Visit Neuschwanstein Castle (Germany – 2013)
- Attend Oktoberfest (Germany – 2015)
- Attended a Barcelona FC football match (Spain 2015)
Middle East:
- Flew on a hot air balloon in Cappadocia (Turkey – 2013)
North America:
- Visit pyramids of Chichen Itza (Mexico – 2010)
- Attended my first Lucha Libre match (Mexico – 2010)
- Went skydiving for the first time (Canada – 2015)
South America:
- Visit Iguazu Falls (Argentina – 2010)
- Witness the amazing Uyuni Salt Flats (Bolivia – 2005)
- Ride down Death Road on a mountain bike (Bolivia – 2011)
- Attend a FIFA World Cup (Brasil 2014)
- Scuba dived in Galapagos Islands (Ecuador – 2015)
- Complete the Machu Picchu 4-day Inca Trail (Peru – 2005)
- Visit the amazonian rainforest (Peru – 2017)
What are your thoughts on my travel bucket list? Is there anything you see that you would like to do yourself? Or perhaps have already done before? Let me know in the comment section!

Yesterday I was stopped on the way to class by a guy who boldly asked me for my number. It completely caught me off guard and I agreed to give it to him, knowing he wasn't really my type. I might be open to trying to get to know him better first, except after he put my number in his phone, he pulled out a cigarette and I really cannot date a smoker. I'm now expecting a text/call from him any day now but don't know if I should tell him immediately that I'm not interested? Should I say it's because of his smoking? Any help on what to say or do would be appreciated!
Most Helpful Guy
You say exactly that. "You caught me off guard with your proposal, I normally don't give my number out to guys that quickly. I don't think I can go out with you, I don't think you're my type, and I don't date smokers. Sorry"
But you know he'll say he only smokes at bars and isn't a smoker.11|00|0
Thank you very much! (: That seems like a good, genuine way to be straightforward with him without being rude. I was mainly confused on what to do because I was afraid that I'd already led him on by giving him my number in the first place! That's definitely not something I try to do!
You're welcome, good luck.

You probably know Chyl's inside out by now, even if you haven't been to the restaurant yet. It has become one of the most blogged about and instagrammed brunch favourites in Brussels.
And yes … we finally made it there as well.
Now about Chyl's. I probably loved this place 10 to 15 years ago. L-O-V-E-D it. The 30'ish plus me … well … the passion has faded a bit and we had a less heated relationship. Let me explain.
20'ish old me: I love this place. I could have brunch at Chyl's every day if I could afford it. Oh should we order drinks? Yes, let's eat here too. Yes, we should definitely share one of their big brunch platters.
Oh, don't you just love their ethnical inspired décor?
Did you see Taylor and Calvin are here too? Yes, I heard they broke up too. Weird.
And it is so bright. And the plants hanging from the ceiling? So inspired. Loving it here. Let's come here every day, dressed in our skinny jeans and wearing our Stan Smiths.
30'ish old me: Thank God we reserved. I didn't expect it to be this busy. Glad we didn't bring minus … there is no way he would sit at any of the tables. I don't even think they have baby chairs. Do they?
Oh God, when did everyone get so young? And all are dressed the same – skinny jeans and Stan Smiths.
Anyway … what should we have? I would like to try their brunch formula. 20e juice and coffee included is not so bad, is it? OK we'll order the Oriental and the Nordic brunch.
Should we try one of their fresh juices too? Let's see.
A bit crammed don't you think? Also, how do they water these plants?
… in summary: no, I have not become a grumpy old woman. I hope 🙂 but Chyl's is very much targeting a different crowd.
Chyl's is part of the new, delightful, pretty, boho trendy Brussels restaurant scene. Yes the food is tasty, yes the décor is nicely mixed, and yes the people are beautiful. But it does not offer anything extra that other – many! – Brussels brunch places don't also offer. And whilst we really enjoyed our brunch, my practical (older) brain had space issues, service issues (not too quick or too pleasant), and to be honest a bit of price vs quality issues too.
I should add however that their bio shop is a great Brussels find!
Chyl's – Rue de Belle Vue 62, 1000 Brussels

Hey Everyone:
Just a brief blog shout out to all of you. I am here to encourage all of us to turn toward the power of Love.
I am here to en-courage all of us to say YES to the Power of that Love that lives inside of you.
In it and through it, there is nothing that impossible. Everything is possible. Its the alchemical catalyst of miracles. If you are breathing, you are a miracle.
I have some close friends that are going through it. They are facing the biggest challenges you can imagine. They are such immense teachers. They are incarnations of courage and integrity.
I am writing to anyone who has felt their whole world spins on its axis. The diagnosis. The phone call. The letter from the attorney. A phone call from the IRS. Feeling like you are in need of a miracle to pay your mortgage. Facing death. Facing life. Feeling down. Feeling alone. Feeling beat down by the world.
Together, we can turn it around, no matter what "it" is. Maybe the circumstance is not going to change, but I PROMISE YOU CAN change and your whole life can light up.
NO matter what we are up against there are some BASICS we can always come back to. Basics that help us get up, step up, show up, love up, and live up – no matter what our circumstances are.
Here is how Pema Chodron says it: "Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible in us be found." Bam. That is it. We keep saying yes to life, even when we have NO IDEA what is next.
You are indestructible. You are not the diagnosis, the divorce, the despair, the dread, or the darkness. You are indestructible. Sometimes, it takes some energetic and emotional muscle to remember that and stay in that strength. Right? Sometimes that can feel like lifting weights you just don't have the strength for. YET, you do.
You have more strength than you can ever wrap your head around.
Check out my video here for a 10 minute soap-box preaching session with my new beard. I'll summarize the video below (video link is at bottom of page in case this does not load in your email browser).
Life is all about energy. Life is energy. Energy in motion. Waves into particles, particles into waves. Whats the highest energy in the Universe? Love. Love is true Power. And it not only "gets us through", it takes our darkest nights and midwifes the birth of a new and miraculous life. It takes the crappiest situations and converts them into inspiration, learning, empowerment, and meaning.
Thus, we need real tools to harness real energy. Here are 3 easy tools. Love takes the small and broken people and makes them Mighty Messengers. Love takes broken glass and makes a mosaic. To manifest that energy, though, you have to know how to flex your emotional muscles.
Lets dive in: State + Story + Strategy = Love in Action
State: At any time, you OWN your state. You may think you are a victim to your moods, thoughts, circumstances, and feelings. You are not. You own that. It won't help any of us to shirk that responsibility. When we are called show up for life in a big way, or when we just want to be the best version of ourselves, we have to learn to own our STATE.
What is state? Its your energetic and physiological vibration. Its your breath. Its your physiological flow. Its how you feel. Think of a time you felt terrible and disempowered. What was your state? How did you breathe? What was your posture? Where was your head, your eyes? Was energy going up and out or down and in? Where was your focus? On whats working or what could go wrong? We own our STATE. The STATE you are in is a foundational axis upon which your life spins. It drives and influences your thoughts, emotions, focus, stories, meaning, decisions, action, and destiny.
Great state = health. Low state = dis-ease.
Great state = coinicdence, ideas, motivation, healing, movement, peace, fun.
Low state = stuck, polarity, chaos, banging your head against a wall, no perspective, negative emotions, breakdown. Tension.
Want to optimize your state? Change your breath. Change your posture. Change your focus. Move a muscle, change a thought. How do you feel after you workout? How do you feel after taking a vigorous walk? How do you feel after taking 10 invigorating breaths. How do you feel after prayer? Meditation? Dancing? Laughing? It takes a MOMENT to shift your state.
Learn and apply techniques to optimize state, every day. I spend 45 minutes every morning, first thing, doing deep vigorous breathing (Sudarshan Kriya as taught in the Art of Living) then meditating. I move my body every day, a few times a day to activate energy, muscle, breath, brain, and vitality. I workout about an hour daily. I have made some major mistakes in my life when I did not manage my state. We own our state and it can change in a minute.
It only need take a minute. Sit up straight. Put your hands on your heart, and think of people you love – deeply – and activate that high energy state of APPRECIATION. It takes just a moment. Before you meet with your doctors, find your flow and get in state. Find your flow and get in state before any meeting, any encounter, any thing that is challenging. Find your FLOW as much as you can. I promise, it will change your life entire life.
Work it every day, throughout the day, and it becomes a NEW habit. You'll simply vibrate at a higher frequency. This isn't something you read about or talk about, it is something you DO. Like attracts like. You'll attract the exact situations that are required for you to wake up. Any situation is thus seen as an empowered opportunity, so long as you can reside in that high state of peace AND power.
STORY: Change your story about your life and you change your life. Simple. Change the way you look at things, and things change. Its a quantum axiom. Change your story, and the particles of your life elevate into waves and EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE and no situation is unworkable.
What do you believe about yourself or your situation? Nelson Mandela's story, after he found his alignment in prison, was that he could change Apartheid by sending letters to world leaders every day. He then realized he could become a leader who would make a new South Africa. That was his story. Pretty empowering. He could have just been a victim and lived his life pissed off, angry, and resentful. His choice to step up changed the course of history and pushed humanity forward. Mother Theresa was driven by a mad love for humanity. She was rejected again and again by her superiors. Love never fails and never quits. That was her story – to Love until it hurts. She changed humanity and pushed us forward. The Dalai Lama has a story that the Chinese oppression has taught him boundless compassion and love. He could have become a terrorist and advocated violence. He is changing the world and pushing us forward.
What about you? What if every challenge was here to show you what you are made of? To lovingly pull you into Love, to healing, to being who you TRULY are? Pain is your fuel for progress. Its a gift. Even that diagnosis. Even that letter from the lawyer.
What is our story? An empowering story, plus a high vibration state is going to produce powerful, empowering, and positive emotions that will help you think clear thoughts and make awesome and powerful decisions. No matter how far down the scale your life seems, this is an axiom of truth. You are not too far gone. Your decisions then create destiny.
We can't skip steps. We have to OWN our state and AUTHOR our story. If we don't someone else will. Its either love or fear, my lovelies.
So what story awakens love? What fuels your fear?
Get clear on what you want and you know what story you need. Have fun. You get to write your life. You can't write your circumstances all the time, but we always author our story.
Strategy: When we OWN our state and we consciously AUTHOR our story, we can USE a great life strategy to get wherever we need to be. Tony Robbins tells it this way: If you want a sunset and you are driving east, its a terrible strategy. You can be super pumped in a hot state and have a killer story, but if you are heading the wrong decision you wont get there. Destiny is a direction. You need a strategy. Telescope your truth. Strategy is what gets us, step by step, from "here" to "there".
I spent years coaching leaders and change agents on a weekly basis to develop these three things and I watched business grow, I watched millionaires get made, I watched people get really empowered, and people becoming very happy people.
We all need help developing a strategy, and thank God, there are so many resources. I don't do that kind of coaching any more (although you can see below how you can hire me as your soul muse catalyst at a fraction of the cost of my previous high end strategy coaching).
When you need a strategy you'll find the resources you need to get there: a book, a trainer, a coach, a network practitioner, a book agent, a seminar, a synagogue. When the student is ready, your teacher will appear. Want to show the universe you are serious? Own your State and Author your Story and your teacher(s) will appear. Be ready. Open all your senses and then some. Become a six sensory student.
Sometimes, A great strategy is leaning in, sitting still, letting go of old teachers, preachers, doctors, and myths that no longer serve. Sometimes, a great strategy is to learn to be with ourselves without trying to contrive fake happiness and manipulating reality to meet our selfish ends.
Own your State, Author your Story, and Get a Strategy to help you take one step at a time into and towards destiny. You deserve it. Just making progress on this path will fill you with so much momentum, leverage, and happiness. Nobody will be perfect, ever. Just making progress will fuel you. Guess what? It also fuels the people around you and will inspire others to be their best.
Today, I went to the gym. I was pretty pooped after a long morning with clients. I worked out for an hour visualizing all sorts of things – a healthy body, having fun with my family, aligning all my energy centers. I then did some strength work pushing and stretching my limits. I meditated at the end for 5 minutes to bring all that energy into my heart. I headed to Chipotle filled with energy and all I wanted to do was see the best in others and spread that love. I love to make people smile. I love to leave a room better than I found it. The world needs it. The manager came out and said, "Lunch is on us, thanks for being so awesome." All it was was State, Story, and Strategy and the burning desire to LOVE this world and LIVE without limits.
"Only to the extent that we expose ourselves over and over to annihilation can that which is indestructible in us be found." YES!
You got this. Anytime we can support you let us know. If you need some wind in your sails, hit us up. We are here for you. We have 2 new awesome programs to coach with me at an absolutely phenomenal price of $49 per month.

By JON PARELES
Published: April 27, 1987
FOR a project that's earnest, meticulous and politically sensitive, Paul Simon's ''Graceland'' show is also a lot of fun. It arrived Saturday at Radio City Music Hall for the first of five sold-out concerts, interspersing South African-derived songs from Mr. Simon's ''Graceland'' with the music of South Africans themselves.
Apartheid is not forgotten, but the concert has more to do with the caroming wit of Mr. Simon's lyrics and the buoyant-sounding music of South Africa's black workers, a combination that keeps wriggling free of expectations.
Mr. Simon has often dipped into foreign styles. Simon and Garfunkel's ''Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme'' borrowed from Britain's 1960's folk revivalists; ''Late in the Evening'' looked to Caribbean salsa. (''Mother and Child Reunion,'' Mr. Simon's 1972 foray into Jamaican reggae, reappeared at Saturday's concert with a more African lilt.) But for concerts, Mr. Simon often used bands of American studio musicians. What makes the ''Graceland'' tour a milestone is the liveliest, gutsiest backup he has ever had.
The band, featuring the South African guitarist Chikapa (Ray) Phiri, bounces and percolates and chatters, whether it's playing mbaqanga (township pop), other South African styles or African-American hybrids. (What seems to have attracted Mr. Simon to mbaqanga, along with the irresistible groove, is the way vocal lines add extra syllables just where American ears least expect it.) For vocals, Mr. Simon is joined by three South African women and by the remarkable 10-man Ladysmith Black Mambazo, South Africa's pre-eminent Zulu choir, which sings in resonant, cathedral-organ chords.
In a tradition of competitive singing called iscathamiya, Zulu choruses do dance routines while they harmonize, and Ladysmith Black Mambazo, led by Joseph Shabalala, has great moves. Ladysmith's own unaccompanied selections, in Zulu, call for singing and pointing and soft-shoeing that might steal the show but for the language barrier. The choir also supplies harmonies, and Rockettes-defying footwork, for songs from ''Graceland.''
The concert features two musicians in political exile from South Africa, the singer Miriam Makeba (who was slightly hoarse on Saturday) and the flugelhornist Hugh Masekela. In the two-hour-plus concert, all the performers appeared together and in various combinations.
Direct comments condemning apartheid were made only by Mr. Masekela and Ms. Makeba, clearly a conscious choice. Ms. Makeba sang ''Soweto Blues'' by Mr. Masekela, a bitter song about the 1976 uprising; Mr. Masekela performed a song about Nelson Mandela, the long imprisoned leader of the African National Congress, and the stark ''Stimela,'' depicting the train that brings mine workers into South Africa. (Mr. Masekela also had the show's dud, a pop-jazz ballad by Jon Lucien.) Mr. Simon, the only white performer, addressed racial issues more indirectly. Along with hints in the album's lyrics, on stage he segued his own ''Gumboots'' into ''Whispering Bells'' by the Del-Vikings, from 1957. Hundreds of other 1950's songs fit the three-chord pattern of ''Gumboots,'' but the Del-Vikings are remembered as a racially integrated group.
The show ends on an earnest note, with a Ladysmith Black Mambazo hymn that prays for peace followed by ''God Bless Africa,'' identified as an African national anthem. But the band's limber mbaqanga and Ladysmith Black Mambazo's exuberant story-songs are also signs of the unquenchable spirit of the South African majority.
