"Learning educates, work enriches"
|Greetings from the leadership of Keleti Faculty of Business and Management at Óbuda University!
Dear Visitors!
The 21st century brings new challenges for young graduates. They must prepare for positions, they need to acquire professional knowledge that may not even exist at the beginning of their studies. Consequently, transferring scientific knowledge cannot be the sole role of higher education. Its task is also to encourage students to find interdisciplinary, innovative solutions to develop analytical and critical thinking skills, social and professional competencies and to foster continuous self-development. In addition, the aim of Keleti Faculty of Business and Management is - beside providing young graduates with a wide range of competences expected by the labour market – to make them acquire practical skills during their studies that enable them to become an integral part of their organizations when they complete their studies.
In accordance with our strategic goal, we consider practice-oriented training to be of paramount importance. Hence, our company partners are actively involved in designing and providing practice-oriented education. In addition, our excellent employees dedicated to latent management as well as realignment of students, in order to reach our vision, implement the latest educational technology and methodology in education.
The faculty's portfolio offers students a chance for self-development in a wide range of courses from vocational higher education to master's degree. In addition to traditional economic courses (such as business and management, commerce and marketing, business development), we also offer interdisciplinary trainings that utilise synergies arising from the diversity of the university, such as technical management, business informatics and business-engineering education. A further opportunity provided by the Faculty to acquire practical knowledge is the dual training available for our bachelor and master programs, which offers opportunities for professional practice parallel to full-time studies at leading companies of the Hungarian economy.
Our educational portfolio is further enriched by the fact that we have nearly 70 partner universities in Europe and worldwide. They are open to our students who are eager to participate in part-time training to complement their knowledge with information about local or international economic, technical and IT trends and develop their language skills in a native language environment.
Beside the high-quality education, the main forte of the faculty is its vibrant academic life. Our academic staff participates on several domestic and international conferences, professional forums and presents the results of their research. In addition to these, the faculty also hosts a number of scientific and educational events where our students can participate without a fee. With this we endeavour to encourage them to turn with scientific curiosity towards social, economic or technical problems. There are currently six research groups and two student circles at the Faculty that recruit students interested in academic career, but the Scientific Students' Conferences organised in each semester, plenty of international and domestic conferences and publication opportunities are also aiming to reach and nurture our young talents.
Our mission is not only to provide knowledge and develop competences, but at the same time we offer a community for our students in which they can simultaneously develop, discover new things, experiment with creative ideas, and support others in this regard. The members of the community are not only students and teachers of the faculty, but experts form our partner organizations, and former students.
I hope that you will soon become a member of the Keleti Faculty of Business and Management's community!
Budapest, 2018.
dr. Kornélia Lazányi, Dean

Thomas Moore, Central Park, New York City
There Silence, thoughtful God, who loves
The neighborhood of Death, in groves
Of asphodel lies hid, and weaves
His hushing spell among the leaves.
—"Alciphron" Thomas Moore
Edgar Allan Poe, in an 1840 review of "Alciphron" by Thomas Moore, writes the following:
At page 8, he [Moore] either himself has misunderstood the tenets of Epicurus, or willfully misrepresents them through the voice of Alciphron. We incline to the former idea, however; as the philosophy of that most noble of the sophists is habitually perverted by the moderns. Nothing could be more spiritual and less sensual than the doctrines we so torture into wrong.
Thomas Moore was Ireland's most beloved poet and a friend and biographer of Byron—their letters read like a 19th century version of Lennon and McCartney trading song lyrics; Moore wrote famous songs, and Poe, 'jingle man' that he was, admired the Irish bard exceedingly, and Poe goes so far to wonder in this review whether Moore might not be the best poet of all time—that's right: No. 1.
But Poe wrote real Criticism; his reviews were Criticism, not puffs, and therefore we see in the quote above a stern disagreement with a mind he very much admired. Such things go on in the heaven of Letters, far above the little minds who think classical music is funeral music and Criticism is mean.
When he called Poe 'the jingle man' in a private conversation with a young William Dean Howells, Emerson wasn't being mean; he was just being stupid, for Poe excelled in so many genres never attempted by Emerson that it would jingle the stoic New Englander just to think on it. It is not that Emerson never rhymed himself; he did, but he somehow fancied that his rhymes harbored a rich philosophy while Poe's rhymes were only rhymes—well, that is a point not yet resolved, but Poe was not bereft of thought—but why waste our time on a silly remark of Mr. Emerson's?
The following passage may suffice to illustrate that Poe's reviews were more than a little thoughtful, at least as thoughtful as Emerson's colorful sermons which cogitated upon gigantic ideas, while Poe wrote philosophically on actual things:
["Alciphron"] is distinguished throughout by a very happy facility which has never been mentioned in connection with its author, but which has much to do with the reputation he has obtained. We allude to the facility with which he recounts a poetical story in a prosaic way. By this is meant that he preserves the tone and method of arrangement of a prose relation, and thus obtains great advantages over his more stilted compeers. His is no poetical style, (such, for example, as the French have—a distinct style for a distinct purpose,) but an easy and ordinary prose manner, ornamented into poetry. By means of this he is enabled to enter, with ease, into details which would baffle any other versifier of the age, and at which La Martine would stand aghast. For any thing that we see to the contrary, Moore might solve a cubic equation in verse, or go through with the three several demonstrations of the binomial theorem, one after the other, or indeed all at the same time. His facility in this respect is truly admirable, and is, no doubt, the result of long practice after mature deliberation. We refer the reader to page 50, of the pamphlet now reviewed; where the minute and conflicting incidents of the descent into the pyramid are detailed with absolutely more precision than we have ever known a similar relation detailed with in prose.
A remarkable observation from a 'jingle man,' but not remarkable to those who have actually read Poe; and his remark on the French is pertinent: Poe wrote in many different ways to a purpose, and Emerson's 'jingle man' gibe is but the jealous growl of a man who wrote in the same style—and not a precise one, either.
One style: this is true of the current followers of Emerson and his line—which includes Whitman, who wrote in the style of Emerson's prose (except for "O Captain! My Captain!" which modernists hate) and William James, Emerson's godson, whose nitrous oxide philosophy influenced Gertrude Stein, John Ashbery, which brings us right to the present day of scribblers who fancy themselves very modern and very free.
The moderns' practice is so free, their writing has no shape at all, for it is but poetry trying to shake free of poetry, form that is trying to shake free of forms, and thus the whole structure of po-biz is one gigantic bee-hive of prose that buzzes sans music, sans philosophy, sans criticism, sans poetry—a prose without any style whatsoever, except that style which rejects all style, like that philosophy which rejects all philosophy; a good example might be the head-scratching ruminations of 1990s Jorie Graham, the strolls in the park at twilight by John Ashbery, the cacophony of thousands of William Carlos Williams-influenced modern poets who race to the end of their lines like school-children hurtling pell-mell out of school.
One style of No style.
How was such a horror allowed to occur?
My guess is that somewhere along the line, it was decided that, to have a style, and, worse, to be proficient in a number of styles, was insincere.
How dare Poe write "Ulalume" —and Eureka— and his Criticism— and his humorous tales— and his detective fiction— and his "To Helen" and his "The Masque of the Red Death"—and his Marginalia—and his Sea-faring novel—and his Reviews—and his essays—and his Tone Poems—and his Romances—and his early Science Ficiton—and his tales of horror—how dare he!
Surely Poe was some Victorian prank, and modern poetry, with its frankness and its bare-bones honesty and its one trusty style has saved the best of us from the sin of that populist trash.
So goes the unspoken analysis of the solemn modern who ponders Emerson and Pound with the utmost somber common sense.
But where's the music?
Why, if we allow music, the 'jingle man' and his jingling might creep back into the tent, and with him all those styles, the Criticism (O mean criticism!), the poetic stories, all those genres he invented or developed, and that is so much work (what do you think we are? Geniuses?)—better by far to proceed down the noble path of making poetry as "free" as possible! Quick! Get me my copy of Aldous Huxley's send-up of "Ulalume!"
For isn't this the 800 lb. gorilla in the room? Poe recounting how Thomas Moore is more descriptively precise in his poetry than anyone else in their prose points a cold finger directly at it: Shakespeare, after all was a poet in his plays and Shakespeare's works are remarkable for their story-telling popularity as well as for their music; Moore, Shakespeare-like according to Poe, was very popular in his day, that Irish sun hidden now by the prosaic little moon of american modernism.
What poet in our day—and we can include the whole previous century–has the popular, story-telling, philosophical appeal of a Shakespeare, or an Alexander Pope, or a Thomas Moore, or a Poe, or a Byron?
This is a large topic, but something tells me it begins with the moderns' horror of poetry that has music.

As a teacher of photography, I can sometimes be so focused on nurturing my students creativity that I often forget about stretching my own creative muscles. I have really been making an effort this last week or so by entering some photographic competitions and also spending a day at The Baldessin Press studio in St Andrews (thanks Silvi Glattauer!). I have a few ideas brewing in my mind for a series but feel like I need a little extra encouragement to get going. Luckily I have some amazing people around me that have given me a much needed but gentle prod in the right direction. The wonderful Deb Dorman has created a group meet-up for creatives so that we can support and encourage one another but also be accountable in moving forward. She has also come up with some monthly challenges, of the creative kind, to help us get those muscles back into shape. I really need to just get shooting again, simple as that!
There are so many opportunities to enter photography competitions at the moment, which is great. I have just been re-editing an old image (below) for one of these comps where the image must provoke, arouse or challenge the viewer. It is a very confronting image that I hope will provoke some conversation around the issues of domestic abuse.
On a creative note…It is amazing how differently I have edited the image this time. Shows I have come a long way in the last few years.

Winter, my favourite time of the year. A time to really enjoy catching up with all the locals that come to the market week in and week out. Jo and I spend a good 4 hours here each week…..it nourishes the soul and keeps us connected to the small rural community that we live in. Market time is our time. No husbands, no kids, no thinking about anything else except relaxing. Absolute bliss!
Here are a few of my favourite stalls that are part of my weekly ritual 'market time'. First up, my veggie shopping. Then up the hill a bit for breakfast at the Thai stall (the best satay sauce in the southern hemisphere!) The penultimate destination is the Chai Tent with a hot, spicy cup of Chai from Robbie. Lots of time spent here for talking, laughing and watching the world go by.

(…and here is my full group photo of the Laudanums)
THE LAUDANUM PROJECT presents
The Laudanum Project would like to introduce you to Sandrine Moreaux. Sandrine is not like other girls. She is complicated. Very complicated. In the year of 1920 Sandrine arrived on the streets of Paris searching for the divine temple of her obsessions – the infamous Théâtre Du Grand Guignol. What she found therein was a terrifying reflection of her own yearnings and dreams that rendered her transformed, reborn but above all beautiful, so very beautiful.
The Grand Guignol Automaton is coming to the 2014 Melbourne Fringe Festival this September.

I was in the offices early here this morning arriving a little before six o'clock. Sitting in my office waiting for me when I got there were three officers and the Director of Counter-Theocracy of the Laal Hethri, Thaantu Beobrai. "You have a problem," he said. I sat down at my desk lit a Gitanes and reached into the bottom drawer for my pint of Woodford Reserve and replied, "What have I done now?"
"This isn't about some transgression you have done this is about what you and most of the media on Terra have failed to do. And you will fix it starting this instant," Beobrai snarled. He produced a folder from somewhere and threw it on my desk. i opened it and it revealed a case that vaguely recalled from 2007.
"We covered this case eight years ago. Ted Klaudt's in jail stories got a lot of hits Justice was served what's this got to do with anything now?"
The taller female Laal Hethri officer, a member of the Special Branch of Urine Dowsers, spoke up, "You scanned the document, you did not read it. This is a different case. Do your fucking job."
"Alright, relax." I took the time to real the names. She was right this was a different case the timelines sort of overlapped and it did take place in South Dakota. This case of abuse was far greater in scope and had some twists and turns in it that made a knot build in my stomach. Halfway through the documents I looked up at Beobrai and asked, "How do I fix this?"
Thaantu stood up and fluttered his wings briefly, "An injustice has been done, a horrible injustice. I hear you have printing presses and computers here, yes? Use them to level the playing field. Those girls were muted by the government of South Dakota and it's officers; I want you to unmute them. Be their voice as this newspaper has been the voice of the silenced on Terra many times before. But be warned the people who are at the heart of this case will not simply go quietly. There will be much collateral damage once the truth comes out, however, I have the utmost confidence in you Schwartz. You've never let us down in the past."
And with that the cops were gone and I called a meeting of my research staff. By seven, I was reading Cavalor in on all the details I had learned about Richard Mette, Gwendolyn Mette, Kim Dorsett, and South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley. We discussed the potential routes we could take in reporting on this story with a keen eye on having to have the facts before we proceed and then laying those facts out for the Living. "This isn't a political gotcha story," Cavalor said leaning back in his chair. "What appears to be a gross cover up here is likely for personal not political reasons. The parties involved here were concerned about careers and profits not people or policy."
I asked The Boss, "So who should write this article?"
Cavalor leaned forward thinking, "It is a crime story and it does have a political angle but in the end it's a story about people who have lost their childhoods, their innocence, at the hands of not only two odious Souls, but also the state organs that are supposed to protect them. It is your story Fred. Go and write it."
So here I sit fifty one minutes later with my head and desk filled with facts about to tell you a story that is both horrifying and in the end hopeful.
The state of South Dakota has had its share of problems in regard to how the Department of Social Services [DSS] operates over the past twenty years. To say that SD DSS was aggressive in protecting their bureaucratic fiefdom within the state government would be an understatement. Several whistleblowers have come forward over the past two decades and most often they became victims of DSS. In one case, an American Civil Liberties Union attorney named Robert Doody after hearing the NPR segment on Native American children in foster care began seeking clients to sue the state for their abuse of power and other charges. Doody's own child was taken from him by DSS for his trouble.
The Mette case revolves around the abuse of girls placed in the care of Richard and Gwendolyn in the late 1999. Twice members from DSS went to the Mette home to check on the welfare of the children and nothing was done. The girls were abused horribly over a period of several years. The details are outlined by Lee Stranahan, who used to be a writer for Breitbart.com, below:
For years, 6'9" 310 pound Richard Mette raped & tortured his adopted Lakota Indian daughters at the home he shared with his wife Wendy Mette in the town of Aberdeen, South Dakota.
After Richard Mette was arrested in 2010 authorities learned he assaulted Katrina Mette nearly whenever they were alone from the time she was eight years old, sometimes forcing her to play a game he called "Beating or Blow Job." The police found a huge collection of pornography including titles like "Family Lust" in Richard & Wendy's bedroom. In the open, public area of the house they found a large set of "Sex Dice" with the pictures of of body parts on one die and words like kiss, suck or caress on the other.
Richard Mette would be charged with 23 counts of rape of child under ten years old and related charges. Wendy Mette would also be arrested and charged with 11 counts of abuse or cruelty to a minor.
The abuse could have been stopped earlier. The South Dakota Department of Social Services investigated the Mettes twice before the 2010 arrests; once in 2001 and another time in 2007, when Richard was sexually assaulting his daughter constantly. In both investigations, the police and DSS found evidence of inappropriate touching and physical abuse but left the children in the home and allowed the Mettes to continue in the foster parent program with a warning to stop spanking the children.
After the 2001 case, the Mettes were allowed the adopt the foster daughters that Richard would go on to assault.
In the 2007 case, State's Attorney Kim Dorsett failed to file any charges, despite the fact that the Mette daughters told police that Wendy Mette had been told that Richard Mette was assaulting them.
After the 2010 arrest, the rape and abuse cases against the Mettes were spearheaded by a young Assistant State's Attorney named Brandon Taliaferro and a children's advocate named Shirley Schwab. Both Taliaferro and Schwab clashed with the DSS, who were trying to reunite with girls with Wendy.
But a few months into the case, a stunning turnaround happened.
After a June 1st, 2011 hearing where it was announced that a lawsuit against the DSS on behalf of the Mette Girls was in the works, Taliaferro was removed from the Mette case. In September 2011, under a direct order from South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley, Brandon Taliaferro was fired from his position as an Assistant State's Attorney.
Schwab contented to work on the case. On October 31st, 2011 she filed a court report that included evidence that State's Attorney Dorsett had a lucrative side contract with the Department of Social Service that prohibited her or her private law firm from doing anything "in opposition to the interests of the state of South Dakota or any of its departments."
That motion exposing the conflict of interest by Kim Dorsett happened to come just days after NPR ran a three part story by journalist Laura Sullivan called Lost Children, Shattered Families that put a national spotlight on South Dakota.
So that's the story in a nutshell. Brought to Light will be having a press conference in about an hour in Washington, DC. Across the street from this press conference on the Mette case and the cover up South Dakota AG Marty Jackley will be presiding over the National Associations of Attorneys General as its President-Elect. I wonder if any of the well heeled men and women in this conference will even care that this man and others worked so diligently to keep a child abuser out of prison and reduce the amount of time another would serve after intimidating witnesses, victims and those charged with protecting the girls?

To me, photography is where realism and creativity become one. It allows the creation of a new reality driven by passion and the individual's vision. Regardless of whether the focus is a person, a product or a place. Images that tell a story, convey emotion or depict a time.
My passion for photography began when I was 8 years old with simple soviet lomo camera Smena 8M (still have this camera in perfect condition). All the process of film photography was magical and exited.
My professional career started as a photojournalist, shooting for Israeli news magazine and covered Second Israel-Lebanon war in 2006. At the same time I was able to practice as fashion and portrait photographer and had the opportunity to work for leading magazines in Israel.
Today, I'm specializing in headshots and portraits photography, product photography, advertising and international corporate events. Industrial and branding photography for major companies.
During all these years, I enjoyed capturing the most beautiful moments of each couple's wedding. Hundreds of weddings and celebrations, Canada wide, US as well as overseas. Using relax approach and being almost invisible during the event, I'm always trying to surprises couples with moments filled with love and simple storytelling images.

Vadim Daniel is a very professional and talented photographer. He and Nadia (makeup artist) made sure that I was satisfied with every step of the process. He really cares about the quality of the product and goes above and beyond to ensure that the results are nothing less than spectacular. Vadim and Nadia were available to give their honest and professional opinion throughout the photoshoot, which was essential to the final outcome. They were also very patient and flexible, yet determined and engaged, which made working with them a real pleasure! I recommended him to some friends, without any reservation!
Nadia Daly
Vadim Daniel is definitely a professional. It is so nice and easy to work with him that you do not even notice how time passes. The most important thing is that the result exceeds all my expectations.
Y Mars
Vadim is very professional and very patient, with photo retouching skills that are nothing short of impeccable. Nady the makeup artist does an outstanding job as well. Will definitely use their services again and would recommend them to anyone.

Alexandra Lemay
Amazing team. I was looking for a while to get a corporate photoshoot and was lucky to find Vadim and Nadya. I felt at ease at the camera which normally is not my case. Quick and qualitative work. I got 200 pictures one better than another…It was a real challenge to choose 2. Highly recommended and will bebusibe their service again for sure!
Maia Slivinschi
My sweetie and I had our professional headshots done with Vadim and we are thrilled with the results. He was very knowledgeable and incredibly detail orientated. The originals are all absolutely breathtaking to the point where I felt we didn't even need touch ups. We are looking forward to working with him again soon !
Jason Bergeron
Excellent! Vadim is very professional and creates a relaxed and fun atmosphere in his space. His studio and equipment are top of the line. I was able to see my shots on a large screen as we took them, and Vadim did small edits on his tablet so I could see what he is capable of doing with touch-ups. My headshots look amazing and even more importantly, my agent loves them. He captured who I am, which is the most important aspect of an actor's headshots. The quality of the photos along with the price of the session and what is included, is unbeatable. Highly recommended.
Ryan Browne
Vadim Daniel is an incredibly professional photographer, he works closely with his clients very well.

Bryan Ribao
Vadim is a discreet professional who is smooth and patient. I felt at ease in different poses, following his instructions. He also took the time to adjust the head shot touch-ups according to my feedback. I highly recommend him for professional, business-type pictures.
Philippe Adib
Working with Vadim for my professional headshot was a pleasure and the results exceeded my expectations. He understood that the headshot was part of my branding strategy, and instinctively knew what image I wanted to project. He made me feel at ease in front of the camera and delivered on the results. I look forward to working with Vadim on a portrait unifying my two careers, in the future. — Diana Sobolewski, Wine Agent & Romance Author.

Vadim was our photographer on our wedding day and he surpassed all our expectations! Not only was he super professional and organized but he was also discreet, friendly and very attentive.

Thanks so so much for making our day so magical

He also makes it an easy experience, too. Wonderful professional photographer. Am pleased to recommend Vadim Daniel."
Kristina Tomaz-Young
Very professional and proficient photographer. Has a very clean and comfortable studio. He will patiently guide you throughout the poses to ensure you look as good as possible, even when you have no posing experience such as myself. He will suggest ideas and creatively experiment with different lighting and environments to achieve very visually interesting headshots. His rates are more than reasonable, and he delivered beautiful retouched photos with some bonuses I was not expecting. I am happy with my experience with Vadim and would definitely recommend him to anyone.
Thaer Jleilati
"Vadim IS GREAT! I basically have no modelling experience at all. I went into the studio very nervous. Vadim was very patient and it was easy to transition into the shoot. He managed to catch great shots for my Miss Universe Canada 2016 pageant headshot and I could not be any more pleased with the results. He knew the best angles of my face. Thank you!"

United States First Daughter, Ivanka Trump, spoke about Queen Máxima of the Netherlands on Tuesday evening regarding how much she has learned from the Argentinian-born Queen of the Netherlands.
Trump and Her Majesty met for the third time in New York's Four Seasons Hotel where they were both invited to take part in a panel discussion on female entrepreneurs in the context of the World Bank initiated 'Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative.' The initiative has been set up to help ensure female entrepreneurs are given equal chances with their male counterparts (i.e. loans and financial services).
On the Queen, Ivanka, who serves as an advisor to her father, US President Donald Trump, remarked, "I have learned so much from Her Majesty, and I hope to learn a lot more."
The First Daughter was not the only one singing Queen Máxima's praises. The leader of the panel discussion, World Bank President Jim Yong Kim, stated, "She has a lot of expertise, and I have to take an extra day to prepare myself. She often knows more than me. We are very grateful to her for what she does."
During her remarks last evening, Her Majesty stressed the importance of good data saying, "How can governments make plans for better access to financial services for women if they do not know the underlying figures? I am calling for figures that have been broken down for men and women. That also applies to banks and the private sector."
Queen Máxima is in New York for a series of meetings as part of her role as the UN Secretary-General's Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development. The Queen was named Special Advocate in 2009 by then UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. She will be in New York through today.

February 2013
Charles Manson killed 'a bunch of other people' according to cult member's lawyer in never before heard tapes
Attorney Billy Boyd claimed Charles 'Tex' Watson revealed Manson had been
involved in a number of other murders
Previously unheard audio tapes have revealed that a cult member's lawyer believed Charles Manson masterminded more murders than the seven he was linked to.
On the tapes attorney Billy Boyd, who represented Manson Family member Charles 'Tex' Watson, says he'd personally recorded around 20 hours of interviews with his client in 1969.
He goes on to say that during these interviews, Watson told him "about a bunch of other people Manson had killed", adding that his client never implicated himself in these additional killings.
The never before heard tape on which the revelation was made consists of an interview Mr Boyd conducted with an author some time before his death in 1999.
News website MyFoxLa.com obtained the tape and published its audio for the first time earlier this week.
Los Angeles police are reportedly keen to analyse the tapes in an attempt to potentially solve a raft of historic murders.
Watson is currently serving life in prison for the murders of Sharon Tate Polanski, Jay Sebring, Steven Parent, Abigail Folger and Wojciech Frykowski on August 9 1969.
The murders were committed by members of a cult known as the Manson Family, led by the charismatic criminal and counterculture figure Charles Manson.
Manson believed the world was set to be engulfed in an apocalyptic race war between blacks and whites known as Helter Skelter.
The concept, he claimed, had been explained to him in code in The Beatles song of the same name, and he is alleged to have encouraged members of his cult to commit murders in order to set in motion events leading to the end of the world.
Manson was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder, convicted through the joint responsibility rule and sentenced to death in 1971.
His death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in 1972 and, despite multiple attempts at parole over the years, the 77-year-old remains locked up in California's Corcoran State Prison.

From time to time you'll have negative ideas and really be spiraling to them for days long. However, you can free yourself from the chaos by attempting to focus on a blink of positivity for as long as a few moments to a longer time period of fifteen or thirty minutes of positive ideas. For more insights, continue reading.
However, you should not lose hope; instead keep yourself together and keep hanging in an effort to pull yourself from the negativity and slowly cling to positivity and reside within it. Needless to say, it's easier said than done.
Compose your fears and negative thoughts down so you could identify them and work on them so. Try this suggestion: For one negative thought, focus on three positives.
Negative thoughts are dangerous and you will fall into a loop without ever recovering and instead giving rise to suicidal ideas on the contrary. If that's the case, you can save yourself by calling at least one dependable person in your life, speaking or not even telling your problem. You get independence from your ideas for the time being and get to a lighter mood. Yes, you're free from the negative thoughts and you'll be amazed how soon you begin positive self-talk again.
Positive self-talk is indeed healthy. You remain ingrained on the perfect grounds, carrying out your everyday chores responsibly and thankfully. You smile, joke and laugh with other people making their day and yours too.
Positive thoughts are much more overpowering, educated and relaxing. It is possible to focus on ideas one after another, keeping them constant and feeling great about yourself.
Consistent thoughts this way would be the secret to joy, abundance and prosperity. They will always put you in the stream of positivity, helping yourself to get things done and to sing and whistle in your way to slow success.
So who doesn't enjoy having consistent thoughts? In actuality, everybody does. Why is that so tough to attain? Simply, because we're chained by our negative thoughts. Simply follow the advice in this report and you are certain to soar. Palm Bay Squirrel Removal follows these steps for greater workplace happiness and success catching animals.

The lectures begin at 8 a.m. at the Broadway Building Conference Center at 500 West Broadway. This year's theme is "Caring for Your Heart – Shaping the Future Today: The Structural Heart Program at IHI."
From 7-11 a.m., participants can also receive a blood screen (lipids and glucose) for $5. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) tests are available for $10 and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) tests are available for $10. Payment is by cash or check only. For the most accurate results, individuals are asked not to do eat or drink anything 12 hours before the tests. Refreshments follow the test. In addition, there will be displays and information booths on the many ways to stay heart healthy.
"Each year, this event welcomes nearly 1,000 Western Montanans who are looking to take a more active role in educating themselves and getting up to speed on the latest treatment and prevention options," says Tim Descamps, executive director of the International Heart Institute Foundation.
The Heart Expo is also an excellent opportunity to meet the award-winning cardiac team at the International Heart Institute of Montana and Providence St. Patrick Hospital. This is the tenth time - and the fifth year in a row - that the group has been designated as one of the 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals in the Nation by Truven Health Analytics.
"Receiving the Top 50 honor is a testament to the incredible work of a multidisciplinary team of cardiac surgeons, cardiologists, nurses, technicians, pharmacists, quality improvement experts and an entire community of hospital and clinic support staff," says Joyce Dombrouski, chief operating officer, Providence Western Montana. "This staff and team have continually worked to improve the cardiac care offered to patients in Western Montana. This expertise and commitment to providing the highest quality care translates to better survival rates, faster recovery and fewer complications for the patients we serve."
The Truven Health 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals study measures performance using independent and objective research in key performance areas such as risk-adjusted complications, 30-day readmission rates, severity-adjusted average length of stay, and wage- and severity-adjusted average cost. If all cardiovascular providers in the U.S. performed at the level of St. Patrick Hospital:
The study singled out 50 hospitals that achieved superior clinical outcomes. Organizations do not apply or pay for this honor or pay to promote their award. More information on this study and other 100 Top Hospitals research is available at 100tophospitals.com.
For information about the Heart Expo, please call the International Heart Institute at (406) 329-5668 or visit Montana.Providence.org/HeartExpo.
The awards recognize the hospital's commitment to ensure patients receive the most appropriate treatment for heart attack and stroke, based on the latest scientific evidence.
More than 700 third and fourth graders from schools around Missoula County will participate in a fun-filled half-day of health-related educational stations.
St. Pat's is one of 823 hospitals to receive an "A" for its commitment to reducing errors, infections and accidents that can harm patients.
Providence St. Patrick Hospital was one of 844 hospitals to receive an "A" ranking among the safest hospitals in the United States according to Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grades.

Heather Siple is more than just a photographer; she is an artist. Armed with camera and black-and-white film, she immortalizes her subjects in rectangular frames of two dimensions...which yet seem to posess a third.
For Tome of Mystara, Siple presents a fantasy series. "Abstract in Darkness" envelops the viewer in a maze of shadow around a seemingly innocuous cyrstal glass...does a gaping maw loom above? The other four photographs in the series portray a young man with a sabre. These shots become portraits through Siple's talent; the high-born young man, a low-level fighter, poses with his blade before riding off to his first battle. "Reflecting Blade" captures him best: daydreaming of the battle ahead, anxious of its outcome and of his uncertain future. He looks to scry it in the sword's polished shine, but sees only himself peering out. The potential of the photo is mastery.
Tome of Mystara is thus proud to present the photography of Heather Siple:

Today's Word Bohemia prompt which can be found here…
It was that time of the year when the smell drifts from fresh-cut grass to woodsmoke. The children skipped off, new bags on their backs, full of crisp new books with sharp white pages waiting to be turned.
"Come straight home," the parents say. "Don't stop. And don't go into the woods. There's still wolves there you know, they'd make a nice snack out of you."
They pointed out the huntsman's cabin at the edge, the border between safe and unsafe. "If you're ever stuck, ask him to walk with you."
The parents shook their heads and muttered about how he'd done his best to save that lovely girl in the red coat. Such a pity.
In his cottage, the huntsman stroked the red material. His souvenir. He remembered Red. They'd called her that, all of them. An orphan. With a frail grandmother. Wouldn't ever be missed.
We all know wolves are really afraid of people.

Environmentalists and engineers are warning that the Cabinet plan to export Lebanon's trash is wasteful and morally irresponsible, and they say the country should keep its trash within its borders.The Cabinet selected two firms, Howa BV of Holland and Chinook Urban Mining International of Britain, to take charge of export operations.Instead, the Cabinet said it would pay for exports in part out of the Independent Municipal Fund, continuing a practice that has drained local budgets for over a decade, environmentalists say.Last week's Cabinet decision also affirmed a 2010 decree to invest in waste-to-energy facilities, that would incinerate the country's garbage or at least transform it into fuel.Chehayeb was at pains to note last week that he did not recommend incineration or waste-to-energy to the Cabinet.

Hello, my name is Doug Turley and I would like to introduce myself. I live in Nashville, Tennessee with the love of my life, Bonnie. I have a daughter who recently graduated from West Virginia University.
My own Alpha-1 story begins with a diagnosis of emphysema in the early 90s. I used inhalers for the next couple of years but the treatment was not helping – I was getting much worse. While preparing for hernia surgery the surgeon looked at my records and was surprised that a 41 year old man had the kind of lung problems I was having. He asked if he could order a blood test. So in 1997 I was finally diagnosed with Alpha-1. In 2003, my lung disease had progressed to the point that I decided to go ahead with a lung transplant. I got my new lungs at Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis.
Before I developed lung problems I managed several different businesses – a bakery, grocery, restaurant, clothing store and pharmacy. I became an AlphaNet Coordinator in 2000 and although the success of my transplant would allow me to return to my former career, I have chosen to stay with AlphaNet. When I am not working I like books, movies, music and computers. In fact, I have become sort of the informal troubleshooter for any AlphaNet Coordinator with computer problems. I also have a toy poodle that I enjoy grooming.
I enjoy being able to share my experiences and having a lung transplant is a big part of that. I can help people with Alpha-1 who only see a bleak future realize that there are many things they can do to make their lives better. I can reassure them and I like being there for them.

These two videos were found on Alzheimer's and Dementia Weekly, a wonderful website with lots of information helpful to all. http://www.alzheimersweekly.com/
This short film will move you in a wonderful way: a son, a father with dementia & love's incredible power.
WHILE HE STILL KNOWS WHO I AM, By Kenny Chesney
When my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I was determined he would not forget me … or I him. This is a grand tribute to all who are living with and dealing with Alzheimer's disease.
PERSONAL NOTE from June 2017: I am in a really good place right now, brain wise! I've been taken off of several medicines including Aricept and Namenda (Dementia medicine) to see if that is the cause of some lightheadedness I've been experiencing. So far the lightheadedness is significantly decreased, so now the goal is to determine which medicine was causing it.
Please come back next time when I'll share more topics about dementia from myself or from this source. If you want to get an email whenever I post a blog (I write about other things, not just Alzheimer's) find the "FOLLOW" box which is usually to the right hand side somewhere, enter your email and respond when the confirmation email is sent to you.
If you are in need of prayer for yourself, in your role as a caregiver, or if you have any specific questions please send me a comment with whatever information you want to share or ask about. I'll say again that I'm not expert, but I probably experienced with my mom a lot of things you're going through and will try my best to help. If I don't know the answer I will tell you I don't know. I'll never judge, I've been judged enough to last a life time and would never do that to someone else. My email address is email@example.com if that is an easier way to communicate.
Until next time,

"On Monday the City Council will hold a hearing on a bill to impose commercial rent control in the city by requiring binding arbitration in rent disputes in an effort to help small retailers. Before taking such a radical step—and it is radical—council members need to answer these questions.
Is there a crisis for small retailers and could it solve itself?
Of course rents have risen during the unprecedented economic expansion that began in 2009 and continues at a robust pace. But retail vacancies are rising too, although no one actually has reliable data on a citywide basis. Higher vacancy rates have already translated into lower rents and a steep plunge is more likely than a resumption of increases.
The biggest problem small retailers face is online competition, which makes it difficult to charge as much as they need to cover expenses and costs them a big percentage of their former customers.
The council would do better to begin thinking about what will be needed when the retail base of the city—both big and small outlets—shrinks by a substantial amount.
Why enact a bill that is most likely illegal?
As the Crain's Instant Expert this week pointed out, the New York Bar Association and a list of other experts believe commercial rent regulation can only be imposed by the state Legislature.
Advocates should also consider another possibility. Enacting commercial rent regulation will give the opponents of all rent regulation a new opportunity to challenge it at the U.S. Supreme Court. With the new conservative majority, there is a chance the court would find all forms of rent control unconstitutional.
Finally, how do you respond to the fact that the rent rules are fundamentally unfair and will impose all kinds of unintended and negative consequences?
As I wrote a few weeks ago, with this bill the City Council would put the interests of one kind of businessperson ahead of those of another kind.
It will also lead to negative results such as disinvestment and overall physical degradation of commercial properties, the stunting of economic growth and interference with desired change."
