Another "Friend" card
I have really enjoyed my evenings this week since hubby is visiting his mother in California and am actually getting some craft time in. Yesterday, an old friend stopped by on her way thru Idaho from Arizona. We met for lunch and just visited for a couple hours. It was so good to see her again. It amazes me how God can bring someone into your life and even tho you do not get to see each other or do not really correspond much, the love you share as friends remains forever. I do not think her and I have even emailed each other for almost a year.....never talk on the phone.....well do not really communicate at all until we can meet up. And once we meet up, it is like we were still neighbors..... like so many years ago. I do thank the Lord for the awesome friends he has given me.
Anyway, Just thinking about friends and how much each one means to me, I made this card for a very special lady in my life. I hope she likes it when she receives it. I used one of my newest Mag stamps. I love the color combination of pink and green so went with it. lol You can see I added lots of bling! I sprayed the flowers with Glimmer mist and added stickles to the leaves. I did use a paper doily to follow the sketch but it seems to be lost in the midst of all the flowers. This is the first time I have used my old but never been used MS butterfly punches. Thank you so much for stopping by.

So says one of my best mates when I told her how long its been since I last was able to write a post here. She gives me permission to let it go..so I suppose I will too. Because, to be honest, and a not just a bit crude, I have been doing an awful lot of fucking. And it's been just beautiful!
But now the fucking is not happening. Because my Lover and I are apart again, because it's family holiday time...first his, then mine. So, besides a very brief connection between the two family holidays, there are almost 6 long weeks of being apart that need enduring. And it has tested both of our endurance already...much more strongly than we would have imagined, whilst thinking about it in the middle of our connected physical cocoon.
So to finish off my slightly shocking opening writing device, I need to say that I am suddenly moved to write again. Because there can't be any fucking. Naturally.
We are beginning to see a pattern around our finding time to be together. Our togetherness consists of a couple of nights at a time together if we are able to co- ordinate our business trips away. And then a possible once a week overnighter when my Lover commutes into my city. We make the most of these moments. One of us usually draws the other in, gently, and quickly, as we come down from the adrenaline-fueled deadline-packed lives we both lead. There's a quiet sense of urgency between us - get to the calm and connected beautiful cocoon as soon as possible so as not to waste a moment. A massage. A hot tub. A connected couch conversation. A fierce and urgent fuck. Something that makes the world fade away and become only the deep and connected space between us. And that space, however long it lasts, feels really like another world. We do both escape there. Love. Laugh. Talk. Fuck. Sleep. Hold. Paradise for the two introverts that we are.
But the harder pattern to bear is, of course, the separation. The inevitable ending that is brought on by The Next Thing, whatever that is. And we are suddenly packing, showering, leaving, saying goodbye, with never quite enough time to process the separation before The Next Thing begins and real life resumes. There is an ache in parting, but it can't be seen and felt too much because there is life to make happen and the cocoon is supposed to be the restorer of the life force that enables the rest of it to some extent. It's all right in those times when we know it will be a few sleeps until we are together again. But it gets worse when that can't happen. When we know it will be long and distant weeks before we can find each other again.
And so at those times the process of separation takes days. And it is this separating time that I feel my old pain coming to me. I know that I was so very interested in the process of self-revelation I was having with each man I've met. And this actual real connected and happy relationship is no exception. I can see that it will stretch and challenge and grow me more than any relationship ever has... if I manage to stay the painful part of the distance.
For some reason. Co-incidence? My Lover's issues? Universe intervention to teach me things? Every time we separate in anticipation of a longer time apart, his day seems to consume him. He disappears from me, able to be only briefly be in touch. I find myself reaching for him. Longing. Aching. And he is unable to reciprocate. So the separation always seems to begin for me in a suddenly back-footed way. I need too much of him. He can't reciprocate. I feel the deep loss in disconnection and I begin to grieve. And cling. And feel a rejection (unintended) and the pain that comes with that. I begin to spiral into sorrow. And that sorrow feels so intense and painful, not helped, I'm sure, by the cocktail of drugs I'm currently taking to try to quell my most recent Rheumatoid flare. Chemo. Cortisone. Biologics. All messing with my emotional and physical disposition in a way that I can't quite get a handle on. So. On shifting sands. And lost in an ocean of sadness and despair at times. Not an easy way to miss a Lover.
But of course, things aren't a straight line here anyway, are they? That sorrow. Loss. Sense of rejection and abandonment. They are not simply created by my Lover's distance. This isn't something he's 'Doing To Me'. I know now, after years of therapy, that these are ancient feelings, being churned up in response to this place, but not formed by them. Just even being able to see that has to be a black belt in my own journey of self awareness. I can't blame him for them. And it's really good to know that unequivocally inside myself. But that's grownup me. 5-year-old me has a different perspective. She is always sitting in her familiar place, cheek and ear up against the door outside daddy's studio, not allowed in, waiting for that moment when the door may open and he will emerge, and be mine again. Waiting for love. Waiting for love.
In my case, the metaphorical door is my cell phone. My WhatsApp account. Lover messages come in through a special alert that is reserved for him. I carry that phone around obsessively. And drop almost anything I'm busy with when his message comes in. In true Pavlov's dog style, every time that bell rings I get a little surge of adrenaline-fed frission and excitement. It's him. Talking to me. Brilliant! Sometimes it's a very arbitrary something, and I feel a twinge of disappointment. Sometimes it's him telling me he can't talk right now...disappointment deeper. Sometimes he asks me a question...I answer...but by the time I finishing typing my response, I see he has already left the conversation and it may be hours again before he picks up the phone to read my response. Even deeper disappointment. I find myself living my life between messages, and tuning into him deeply the moment he is available to me. His experience of me is, I think, of almost total availability. Access. I know I cannot even tolerate the idea of letting him down by not being available. Unexplained absences. Distance. Never want him to feel that Pain of Absence. Unavailability. Things that I suffer on a daily basis. I love him by being almost obsessively available to him. Because that's what I crave. How I think love is. Protecting the one you love from the pain of separation.
I thought everybody loves like this. At some naive level I think I see loving as doing everything you can to protect your loved ones from the pain that life can bring, and most especially from the pain that you might bring to them, in this case, by 'neglecting' them by your absence. But, I'm starting to be regularly reminded, not everyone has this particular flavour of pain that I carry around inside me. They don't need to be protected from it because THEY DON'T EVEN FEEL IT. Whaaaat?
Last session I spent with shrink she gave me such an important story to work with. Her first boss had the weirdest habit. He was wealthy. Very very wealthy. But every time there was some sort of office function he would send her to the food table to pile him a plate of food. Pile being the operating word. He would stand at a distance and monitor her piling, secretly encouraging her to put more and more onto the plate. Then she would have to go and hide the plate in his office fridge. And then pile a second one. That was the ritual. And then he would snack on those plates of food, well into the following week...where the food was stale and limp. Even though he had money enough to order in fresh gourmet food daily if he so desired. She found it a nauseating and disgusting habit. Until one day he told her the story about the poverty and real starvation he had grown up with as a child. How he would go for days without food and knew real hunger. She joined the dots. Never knew whether he did.
She says that I have the equivalent poverty of emotional connection and care. Brought up with very few of my emotional and connection needs met in an abusive (mom) and neglectful (dad) world. My inner child well knows that pain of waiting and waiting for love. And there is a very strong part of me that suspects that love can be withdrawn at any time. I'm prone to hoarding it in just the same way that boss needed piled plates. Drop everything. Every time. Be present and available for that connection moment. Feel the transitory emotional rush of joy that happens with each connection. Cherish it. Never. Ever. Miss an opportunity to allow it to happen. Anticipate it. Make space for it. Plan for it. Embrace it. This could be the last scrap ever.
The fear in me is about the sense of loss and abandonment in the terrifying potential withdrawal of love that is so normal for me that I don't even notice myself expecting it. And so all-consuming is it, that I can't believe that every human being around me isn't feeling that same fear. So I project it onto everyone I love. Assume they feel it. Work like crazy to reassure, surround and protect them from feeling it. Because it is my deepest pain. And how would I be able to even say to myself that I love someone if I don't work tirelessly to ensure they never experience it because of something I've done. My need. Your need. Satisfied in very present, deeply bonded connection. And the completely incorrect assumption that we both feel the pain. And both crave the connection.
So to my lover. We have both felt the unravelling of us as the days go by into this long separation time. I'm feeling more and more of that ancient pain coming up while he lives his home life, and work life away from me. I get more and more needy and clingy. More and more wounded by what feels like his lack of presence. He feels more and more blamed and at a loss as to how to reasonably and lovingly respond to what must feel to him like an abyss of need in me. He is struggling with his own drug-induced imbalance and shifting sands as he also wrestles a flare. Both of us despairing at some level - this thing is supposed to be enriching and life-giving, and instead we find ourselves drowning in our own and each other's demons, not really sure about how to keep this place safe. My ever-presence is starting to irk him.
Trudy: "Lover, I'm hearing that you're too busy for me. That my need for time with you is a burden. That my disappointment when we can't have time is unacceptable. That my expectations are unreasonable. That this pain we're experiencing is because I'm doing it all wrong."
Rainman: "Trudy, I'm saying that we're not getting it right. That our need vs expectation/hope ratio is out of alignment with what is practical.
"And that our remote connection is not good and it spirals downward
"And that I find it a huge challenge constantly being or feeling like I'm on the back foot with respect to your needs. And that I seem unable to change that.
" And it is difficult knowing that you are always looking....Hoping...Waiting...Disappointed"My guarding my phone. Obsessively carrying it with me. Cheek leaning up against daddy's door. Answering his every text. Being present whenever he has time for me. Organising my life around being with him when he can make the time. It's too much for him. And he will never love me back that way. It's how I love. But it's not a normal way to love. And I need to find a new way. I need to hold the anxiety in my little child and soothe her. And find a more grownup, functional way to love and be loved.
I tried a new practice last night. I left my phone alone in my room and focused completely on feeding my huge family. Chilled with my boys, let them figure out the finer arts of chicken carving and serving dinner hot to hoards. Had to keep soothing my growing anxiety of my phone alone in my room. Telling myself over and over that my lover would survive the distance. That he wasn't craving connection like I was. That he would comfortably take it in his stride. That this separating time wasn't about love, or the lack thereof at all. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was subjecting him to feelings of abandonment because of my lack of presence. Coaching myself through it all was exhausting. By the time dinner was finally done and the dishes washed, I fell into bed, with a deep turmoil inside me. Didn't know how to even tell him what was in my mind. And then did another 'abandoning' thing. I told him I thought I needed to sleep to recover. Which I did.
We said goodnight. He wasn't able to intuit that I needed loving words from him that would calm and reassure me. Maybe he wasn't capable of them either. I know I wasn't.
So Waiting seems to be how I love. One of the ways I love. I think it's time for me to gently let go of that practice. It comes from a dysfunctional place in me. and if I am to heal then here is a good place to work at that. I end this piece, not with a hopeful sense of 'Eureka'. My heart feels heavy and sad, and my body wants to sleep, even though its only 9.30 am. I hope my lover will want to see this through with me. It feels like it won't be an easy path that I can facilitate lightly and make it feel simple. It feels dark and fraught. And I feel tired when I look at it. Growing healthier sometimes takes a very painful path. I'm walking it now.

Tomatoes & Sunshine
I had fun (most of the time - except when it got late and I was a little tired - added those "character" stitches!! LOL) "practicing" my FMQ. I quilted "Snail Tails", "Whirlygigs" and "Wonky Echoes Diamonds"! and what better summer fabric, but red gingham for the backing!!
I've had several other finishes: two wee care quilts for our guild benevolence. One I forgot to get a photo before I took it to guild meeting, but here is the other. The guild received several big tubs of donated fabric and Marcella handed me a pile of fabric and said, "Here, doing something with this!" It was panel fabrics with coordinated prints and I cut out the panels and added sashing and cornerstones.
I practiced (again) some more new designs that I found on Lori's blog! Every Tuesday she does a FMQ tutorial and she has a tab with many of her designs for you to reference!! I LOVE her methods and designs, so added some to my quilting!!
In that stack of fabric there was also a panel of a Mary Englebreit design from which I had made a wee care quilt several months ago, but there were two little 8" x 11" panels left over, so I made two little quilts from them. One I sent to a friend in Colorado and the other I'm going to give to Marcella! She has a collection of teapots and one is a Mary E. so I thought this would make a cute little mat for that tea pot!
I also have another finish. This one was for a client (a co-worker of Mandie's) and it was my first bed-sized quilt to quilt on my DSM. Adrianna had bought the top at a garage sale for $1!! (where was I when this garage sale was going on!! LOL) I added the border (her choice) and quilted it for her. She chose poly batting and much to my surprise it quilted up very nicely! There must have been over 100 different fabrics, and it was so fun to stitch along and see every one!! From what I hear, Adrianna's mother (who had suffered a stroke) was trying to keep it for herself!! So, I guess they were happy customers! As you can see in the photo, I just cross hatched the center and did a double cable in the border. I also did something new - I rounded the corners to match the rounded cable corners and I think it gave it a unique look.
Last, but not least, Karin and I met up again as she made a pass through town!! We always have such a sweet time together and this time was no different even though she could only stop for a few minutes to "stretch her legs" and "hug my neck"!! Of course we met up at the fabric shop and she helped me pick out binding for a baby quilt. AND this time I remembered my camera so you can see that we really do meet up!!
Aren't those fabrics just wonderful!!!! LOL!!
She had been shopping at another quilt shop in another town and she so very, very, very generously gifted me with some 1/2 yard cuts of some CW repros she had picked up! Aren't they wonderful!! She just blessed my socks off!!
Well, I've tarried long enough here! I do want each of you to know that your kind words of concern over my loss of Tate touched me deeply. He is still sorely missed, but my two young dogs Pete and Bess have stepped up and are attempting to fill his "paws"! Blessings to each of you!

I love the name Tomatoes and Sunshine ! You are going to have to teach a class at the guild on FMQ on a domestic machine, you're very good. Enjoyed reading about your quilting !

A very clever name name for your red and yellow quilt. I'm working on a blue and yellow Jacob's Ladder and your cleverness made me think of Blueberries and Sunshine for the name.
Cute photo of you and Karin. Good thing you two didn't have longer to visit or you might have gotten into trouble...????

Yes surprisingly this isn't a joke at all, there's a LEGO film being made called LEGO: The Piece of Resistance. Both DC super hero's Batman and Superman will be featuring in it also.
The film will be directed by both Phil Lord and Christopher Miller who are both well known for their work directing Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. They will be having both iconic DC super heroes in the film, in a way it does make sense in a way though since Batman and Superman have been with the LEGO franchise for videogames and building blocks.
Will Arnett, a very hilarious man will be voicing Batman and the directors want to get Channing Tatum to voice Superman… I find it very weird that they want Channing to do this, don't get me wrong the guy's pretty good at acting he was great in Step Up but I just don't see his voice being for Super Man but I could be wrong. Chris Pratt will be voicing the protagonist of the film.
It gets weirder LEGO: The Piece of Resistance is going to be a hybrid film being live-action and LEGO animation, I don't know how they're going to pull this off to be honest it just doesn't sound like something I'd watch. Director of Robot Chicken Chris MacKay will be co-directing the film; he's also in charge of some parts of the animation. This brings up the question how much of the LEGO will be done through CGI? Since Robot Chicken is well known for its stop motion animation, the film is said to be released on February 28, 2014.
Lego's been doing a lot lately; recently there have been three new video games that have been announced being made by LEGO. Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, LEGO City Undercover and LEGO The Lord of the Rings, so far the only thing that's got me very interested is the LEGO LOTR since I'm a huge fan of the beautiful world Tolkien created.

If you're looking for a more minimalist and modern feel, the sleek curves of our heavy-gauge Santol line by Charingworth (a Studio William Welch Company) are a popular choice in many leading contemporary restaurants.

A recent Bigfoot video making the rounds on the Internet has captured the interest of Cryptozoologist and Sasquatch enthusiasts. The short clip, captured in Provo Canyon, Utah shows what appears to be a Sasquatch type creature rising up amidst some foliage. Uploaded by a user named 'Beard Card', the original video clip has already scored millions of youtube hits and continues to attract attention.
Beard Card was in the area on a camping trip with three other people. The videographer and the others were in the canyon observing the herds of deer so prevalent in the area. The group spotted what they at first thought was a black bear moving behind some trees near Squaw Peak and Little Rock Canyon. As the dark figure was moving along, Beard Card began filming. Suddenly, what they assumed was a bear rose up to a bipedal position. Unfortunately, Beard Card ran away in a panic just as the figure stood up, causing the camera to pan away and leaving many unanswered questions. He has stated in interviews that he does not know exactly what the figure was and that he was not involved in any kind of hoax.
While the video continues to generate interest, many people have speculated that the figure may be someone in a gorilla suit. If true, it was a risky time for such a hoax since the footage was captured during deer hunting season.
The video clip certainly doesn't provide enough data to conclude wether or not the subject is simply a human or if it is indeed an unknown bipedal creature. Personally, I don't believe that the figure is a bear as some have speculated. It's possible that it's a human, perhaps a hunter who was quietly waiting for deer although there's no evidence of a firearm.
Utah's wilderness area is vast so the possibility of an unknown creature in the state is much higher than in more densely populated regions.

Slumdog Millionaire actress Freida Pinto's belly button is now being feted for having one of the world's most beautiful belly buttons by Vanity Fair magazine which is conducting a new poll to find world's most beautiful belly buttons.
The magazine has given out a list of 19 women with beautiful belly buttons, one of which will be adjusted as world's most beautiful belly button.
According to the magazine, her belly button is perfectly shaped, a cute round button within a perfectly concentric outer circle.
"Beautifully shaped belly-buttons strategically exposed at anti-war protest marches can distract politicians from war agenda and make them ponder on the futility of wars. Out of billions of belly buttons on this planet, only 19, we believe, can stop wars." said the magazine of its chosen list which is eclectic mix of personalities from Hollywood, actresses like Kate Hudson and Angelina Jolie to political personalities like Queen Rani of Jordan and First Lady of France, Carla Bruni.
The magazine, of course, did not examine billions of navels to choose the selected nineteen.
"We did a google image search of belly buttons and shortlisted nearly 2200 nicely-shaped belly buttons. Out of these 2200 images of belly buttons, we removed from our list, all those belonging to obscure, unknown women and men who had posted pictures of their exposed navels on the Internet and arrived at a shorter list of 200 beautiful belly buttons belonging to well-known celebrities. Since all of these 200 beautiful belly buttons were perfectly shaped and indistinguishable from each other, we again did a google search of the these 200 international celebrities and based on a complicated mathematical formula which combined the number of search results with their current popularity, we finally arrived at our war-stopping list of 19 beautiful belly buttons" said Grandyon Carter, editor of Vanity Fair.
As a result of this rigorous selection process, many proud owners of beautiful belly buttons like Nicole Kidman, Charlize Thermon and several Indian actresses like Shilpa Shetty and Katrina Kaif failed to make it to the hallowed list.
Reactions to the list, especially the inclusion of Freida Pinto's belly button, are a mixture of outrage, disbelief and community pride. "Does Freida even have a belly button?" is the most common reaction of most netizens to the news of her inclusion in the list which is not a surprise considering that there are not many pictures of her exposed navel in circulation. But many have defended the inclusion of her belly button in the list and congratulated her for achieving yet another milestone in her brief career as an actress.
According to informed sources, Big Brother contestant and Indian actress Shilpa Shetty is devastated at the news of her belly button being excluded from the list and is wondering why in spite of regularly exposing her navel at every opportunity and despite keeping herself in news by buying a stake in IPL's winning team, Rajasthan Royals, her belly button was not considered popular enough to warrant a place in the list.
Though Freida Pinto has made it to the list of 19, the chances of her belly button being voted as world's most beautiful belly button are relatively less. Early voting trends reveal that Angelina Jolie and Gisele Bundchen are leading the votes tally with 23 percent and 18 percent of total votes. Pinto's belly button has garnered just 2 per cent of the votes.

I have been visiting family for a few weeks in the desert and red rock mountains of southern Utah. I stopped at a quaint vintage and handmade consinment shop in downtown St. George.
I was rummaging through some old post cards when the suited old man in this one caugh my eye:
I do indeed wish you a happy new year
I loved it and such perfect timing to find it two days before 2009 was gone forever. But when I examined it closely on the postage mark it was stamped Los Angeles (where I ended up celebrating my new years) December 3, 2:30pm 1909. Yes! That means it was sent by this jolly gent to a Mrs. JC Brawn, 1862 Winfield Ave, Los Angeles, California exactly 100 years ago to celebrate the new year of 1910.
and so from me (and my baby camila) to you:

In this world that we live in today, we are taught either to take, take, take, or give, give, give, or a flip flop of both.
When we are out of balance, dysfunctional patterns tend to keep us locked in particular mindsets that prevent us from truly reaching our full potential and our full sovereignty. If we grew up in a dysfunctional family, chances are that we are operating out of one of these two patterns of either giving waaay too much or taking waaay more than our share. If you have heard the expression, "give an inch, they take a mile" then you know what I am talking about. Those of us who grew up with either a single parent or an alcoholic or rageful parent know that this is a pattern that is extremely challenging and definitely hard to break.
The key to this pattern releasing itself for good, is the concept and practice of Energetic Responsibility. Energetic Responsibility consists of being in true alignment with yourself at all times, and learning how to navigate the waters of communication on an energetic and verbal level when interacting with others and making decisions for yourself. If you have never experienced energetic responsibility, it may be a foreign concept or appear as an arrogance, or indifference in others, when in fact, they are just taking care of themselves.
Most people that are energetically responsible, are loving and kind, and have full confidence in their abilities, and their boundaries are very strong, leaving very little room for negotiation on being taken advantage of by another person. You will also notice that they will be somewhat transparent in their communication and tend to make sure that they are not offending anyone, even if they are taking care of themselves. This is quite an uncommon experience to witness in this world that we live in today, but it does exist and you will notice it right away by the level of peace of mind that someone reflects in their personal experience.
Most people on the planet have learned dysfunctional and violent communication skills through their family structure, and have absolutely no idea that they are in fact communicating in a way that might harm or trigger others, emotionally or energetically. It takes a lot of practice and mindful communication to learn how to navigate an interaction in a way that offers safe and respectful communication. As we navigate these changing times, it is vital to be responsible for our communication with others, and not make assumptions and rather ask questions, rather than assuming that we know what others are thinking and act or react out of a fear-based idea that somehow our needs are not being met or we are not being taken into consideration.
When we finally learn to love ourselves, we realize that we do not desire to harm others in any way, as they are representative of ourselves. When we see someone that triggers us or makes us feel uncomfortable, a loving approach for ourselves would be to step into a place of right relations with ourselves and check in before acting out of a reaction or responding in a way that might fuel a fire that has already been lit. Sometimes we do not know what is really going on and can have trouble identifying what our feelings are and why we feel unsafe in the presence of another, if there is no back story. In those cases especially, it is always good to take the time to check in with ourselves and identify what the feeling actually is that we are feeling and where it is coming from. We can ask ourselves the following questions: "Is this mine, is this true, is it fair?" It could be that we are in actuality having a judgment about that particular person, before really checking in to see what it is about. Maybe our judgment is based on something as simple as the fact that they have not showered, or do not take care of themselves and their hygiene, or something similar. If, in those moments, where we find ourselves in judgment, it is encouraged that we look at what is really going on with that other person, and step out of our judgment, so that we may see the truth of that situation. In the eyes of compassion, maybe that person, more than anyone, needs unconditional love and someone who respects their lifestream enough to interact with them and tell them the truth, in a loving and honest way.
In other scenarios, you may actually feel unsafe and want to run away from that person. Chances are that you feel unsafe due to other influences that you can't necessarily put your finger on, but know are there, such as a disembodied energy that may be attached to that person, due to substance abuse, and their energetic field being open to allow those energies to enter their space. In that case, it is best advisable to not lock eyes with that person, as energies can jump from person to person through the window to the soul. This also means however that it is imperative to remain neutral and not judge this person, as they may be totally unaware that they are hosting an energy in their field.
In all these ways, we are taking care, rather than care taking. We are being energetically responsible, and making sure that we stay safe and also take care of our own needs in the process. If we feel sorry for someone in that position, chances are we will get ourselves in a mess if we attempt to "save" someone, without really knowing what we are doing and how we will affect that person's reality. Maybe they need to experience such depths of despair to really learn where their power lies, and to "save" themselves from their own demise. Their soul may have had reasons for choosing such a reality, and it is not up to us to determine their healing. If we are asked to help someone, we also need to be mindful that it does not impede upon our own growth or energy, and take care of ourselves by checking in about it every step of the way. If we ever get to that point where we know we have hit our limit, then we must retreat in order to take care of ourselves, and not give too much.
Sometimes we are addicted to helping others, due to a need in us to be needed or not be alone. This dysfunctional behavior can set us on a path of destruction, and leave us in a state of depletion that then compromises our physical health. A lot of times, our body will let us know that we have hit our limit, by creating a health crisis, to get us to listen. Most of the time, people refuse to listen, barreling through the pain, and continuing to function because of the demands of our society and the way our lives have been set up. The problem with this idea, is that we will not be around to enjoy our lives if we do not "take care" of ourselves. The mainstream ideas that society pushes continue to set us up for failure, and we end up harming ourselves, by allowing our power to be given away to these ideas that we must continue to push through and hurt ourselves in order to meet the status quo. Recent articles are coming out that are revealing that we are in fact in a construct that has been designed and set up for us to fail, and for others to benefit from our efforts. This is not the place for me to go into this at this moment, more will be revealed about this as time goes on and as it becomes more and more apparent, it will be obvious to anyone who is paying attention.
Taking care of ourselves rather than care taking others requires us to be diligent and pay attention to the nuances of our environment and interactions, so that we may benefit from our decisions and moving forward.
A few suggestions as to how to take care of ourselves:
When confronted with a decision and deciding about how to proceed forward in any given situation, it is important to check in with ourselves. We can do this by placing our left hand on our heart, and closing our eyes, and asking our heart's intelligence which direction feels the most aligned with our hearts. We will know the right decision by the way our body responds. If we feel contraction or resistance, it may be our ego attempting to stop us from expanding, but also, it can be a warning. The way we can tell that it is the right decision, is if we feel at peace with that particular detail and how it fits into the whole scenario. If you do not feel at peace, then it is probably not the best time to make that decision or to move forward with that decision. There may be more details that need to reveal themselves before proceeding. If you just dont feel good about it, chances are that it is not the right decision.
When confronted by a person who is either bringing force towards you or a violent energy verbally, rather than fighting back and battling the demon head on, you can use the yin-yang practice, of countering the yang with the yin, by receiving with love and then throwing the yang off-balance into the yin, being able to come back with the yang as a direct force to be reckoned with, making sure that it is coming from a non-violent perspective and more about holding a boundary or standing in your truth, rather than your ego accusing or challenging the other person to the finish to see who wins. An example of this would be if someone starts yelling at you and requires a response after they have just accused you of something or have pointed the finger. You know you will not necessarily win the battle, so rather than fighting the battle, you allow that person to be heard while you surround them in white light and you allow them to complete their sentence so that they have spoken their truth, and then you give the situation a space of silence before responding, so that you can come to a resonance within yourself where you are responding in love. This person may be hurt and is really asking for love, and does not know how to ask for what they need. If you happen to be guilty of said accusation, this makes it even more important to come from a place of love and take full responsibility for your actions, and own them. If you are not guilty of said accusation, it is vital to counteract this violence with non-violent communication and respect, coming from a place of love.
Another issue that many of us are having in our lives these days is in regards to what is taking place all around us. As more and more people begin to lose their grip on this reality due to the imbalances present in our society, it is even more imperative that we listen and find the truth within ourselves, and stay true to our center. A good way to practice this is to tune into our heart space every morning before we begin our day. From the moment we open our eyes, we have a choice as to how we go about our day, and how we choose to operate in the world. If we begin our day by dropping into our heart space, and the center of stillness within, it gives us an opportunity to come from a centered place in all of our interactions, so that we may be operating from a space of love, rather than being thrown off our center by any particular encounter. Since we encounter so many different energies within our realities on a moment by moment basis and we are required to interact with these energies, it is good to be coming from a centered approach.
A good way to do this is to come into our hearts by focussing on our breath and begin circular breathing, so that we can activate the chi within our bodies. Most of the time we are in need of going to the bathroom first thing in the morning. It doesnt have to take long for us to do this practice. It is more about finding your center within the heart. If that takes just 2 minutes then great, if it takes 10 minutes then great. It all really depends on where you are in any given moment. First focus on your heart, and imagine a golden sphere of light pulsating in the center of stillness within the center of your being, usually located between your heart chakra and solar plexus. As you breathe into this golden sphere, you can allow it expand on the exhale, creating a bubble of golden light around your body and spilling out into the room. When that feels established, you can add a rainbow sphere of light around your golden sphere to allow for neutrality within your energetic matrix. This practice can be jarring to your reality at first, so be mindful of this, as you begin to expand your awareness outside of the proverbial matrix. Ending this practice by remaining deeply in your heart center of peace and stillness, will then establish a construct within which to operate in your daily reality allowing you to listen and hear your original thoughts and to recognize what is yours and what is not. Allowing this discernment will change your life.
If you are interested in learning more practices that will change the way you interact with the world on an energetic and verbal level, the Energetic Responsibility Online Course will be coming up in September in the fall of this year. You can sign up by sending me an email expressing your interest and I will be sure to put you on the list. Other courses will be offered including Magi and Priestess Trainings, and Sacred Pilgrimages next year.
Also, just to let you know, I am writing a 3-Volume Series about Multi-Dimensional Living entitled Kaleidoscope. Stay tuned for my keynote speaking engagements coming up in the new year as well
I will be Headlining 3 Days of Light again this year on the weekend of August 28-30, 2015, where I will be one of the Keynote Speakers and performing my well known DNA Source Code Activation and Into the Void Ceremonies for all participants.
Life is full of surprises, and we must be prepared and ready to embrace life as it comes, while taking care of ourselves rather than care taking others and depleting ourselves.
I truly hope this has benefited you, and that this reflection, learned from my own experience, is useful in some way.

Fanchon woke to a loud crack of thunder that rattled the shutters. He sat up to find Aloysia sitting in on the settee between their children Greta and Matias with a quilt wrapped around them. Their faces were pale and eyes wide.
"I don't know how you could sleep through this," she said as there was a knock on the door.
"Come," Fanchon said.
The door opened and Kennard entered.
"Everyone is frightened Father," Kennard said. "They are afraid of the storm."
"Gather everyone in the dining hall," Fanchon said and Kennard left.
'I will have word passed by the dragons,' Aylward told him as more thunder rattled the shutters again.
Greta pulled the quilt over her head and Matias buried his face in his mother's shoulder.
"Let's get dressed," Fanchon said. "It will be alright."
Kennard would soon turn one hundred and showed signs of being a good leader. Greta was fifty but still timid at times. Matias was nineteen afraid of nothing, well nothing except this storm. Fanchon led the family out into the hall where others were coming out of their rooms. They met more people going down the stairs to the dining hall. Eventually everyone was accounted for. He stood at the head table and looked out over the frightened faces as a lightning lit around the shutters for a second before thunder followed. Some of the children hid under the tables.
"I know this is the worst storm we've ever seen, but this castle is strong and safe," Fanchon said. "Having several weeks of storms that have gotten progressively worse has made all of us nervous."
"What about the lightning Lord Fanchon?" someone asked. "There was a cow that was struck last week. It was killed instantly and half cooked. The tree it was next to was split in half"
There were gasps and murmuring among the people.
"I know," Fanchon answered. "We are safe within this castle. When we were building it Malvin mentioned the lightning was drawn to the veins of metal in the mountains. We made a thick rope of metal to go from the very top of the castle to deep under the ground on the north side of the castle. I've seen lightning strike the pole on top of the castle and the rope carry the lightning into the ground."
Another crack of thunder interrupted him.
'The village has been flooded,' Aylward said. 'The people are frightened and confused.'
"Aylward just reported that the village nearby is flooded," Fanchon said. "Their homes are built from wood alone, not the strong stone we are surrounded by. We may need to give them aid in rebuilding. This storm will pass and we will be safe."
"I am grateful for this strong castle along with all of our friends and family here," Kennard said as he stood up beside Fanchon.
"The village has flooded before and will flood again," Fanchon said. "Here we have water that is clean and safe to drink that comes to every bathing chamber in the entire castle. It is warmed by the heat of the volcano. I know the storm is frightening but here we are safe."
"Let's all have some warm cider to drink until the storm passes," Aloysia said.
Everyone spent the rest of the night in the dining hall. The storm broke and began to clear at sunrise. The courtyard of the castle was full of debris blown in by the storm and the kitchen garden was barely salvageable. It was late afternoon a few days later that they finally had most of the courtyard cleaned up. As he walked out of the portcullis Fanchon noticed a couple of men approach from the south. They were covered in mud and appeared exhausted as one dropped to the ground.
"Bring two horses quickly," Fanchon said to Tor.
He ran over to where the second man sank to his knees beside the other.
"Are you from the village?" Fanchon asked and the man nodded. "You are safe here. We'll get you inside so you can clean up and rest. We'll be having supper in about an hour."
Tears began to run down the man's face. Fanchon helped Tor get the two men onto the horses. Other men joined in to carry them up to rooms on the first floor. Fanchon helped with the man who had been on his knees. The man was at first frightened of the dragon head faucet but soon relaxed into the warm water.
"The village flooded and most of the fields were washed away," the man said at last. "Some are now covered by the stream. It won't be long before it starts washing homes away. Everyone wants to move. Some have left already."
"My dragon told me the village flooded," Fanchon said.
"It's happened several times before. Last year I went south to Brinley to see if there was somewhere to build a new village, but the villagers I found said that they barely survive on what the king leaves after collecting a portion of their harvest for his own use. Every man is taken from his village at seventeen and forced into the army for at least three years."
Fanchon remained silent.
"Everyone in the village is terrified of the dragons, but there's nowhere else," the man said softly.
"I know," Fanchon replied.
"Is it true you live longer than we do?" the man asked.
"I am two hundred seventy two years old," Fanchon said nodding. "We arrived a hundred years ago. I visited your village shortly after we arrived."
There was a tap at the door.
"Come," Fanchon said.
"Here are some dry clothes, Father," Kennard said. "What about the rest of the villagers? Will they be safe where they are?"
"We should build homes and shops outside the castle wall for the villagers," Fanchon said as he shook his head.
"What would you expect in return?" the man asked.
"Only for your men to help build the buildings and care for your own fields," Fanchon said. "It makes no sense for us to not help you when we have been so fortunate."

Kyle Stanley rallies to win Phoenix Open
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) – For the second straight week, a PGA Tour event ended with Kyle Stanley in tears. This time, they were tears of joy.
Taking advantage of Spencer Levin's final-round meltdown, Stanley rebounded from a devastating loss at Torrey Pines to win the Phoenix Open on Sunday, overcoming an eight-stroke deficit in a comeback as unlikely as his collapse a week ago.
"You go from a very low point to a high point,'' Stanley said. "I'm not sure I expected to maybe recover this quickly. … I think the biggest challenge was seeing if I could put last week behind me. I think I did.''
Stanley closed with a bogey-free 6-under 65, holing a 4-foot par putt on the par-4 18th to finish at 15-under 269 – a stroke ahead of playing partner Ben Crane and two ahead of Levin.
Levin, six strokes ahead entering the round and seven in front after one hole, shot a 75.
"It just wasn't my day, obviously,'' Levin said. "But I gave it away, simple as that. You have a six-shot lead and lose, you gave it away. My hat's off to Kyle. He played a great round. He went and got it. But if you've got a six-shot lead and don't win, then I think it's on the player with the lead, for sure.''
When asked about Levin, Stanley echoed what Torrey Pines winner Brandt Snedeker said about Stanley a week ago.
"I really feel for him, experiencing that,'' Stanley said. "You don't want to wish that upon anybody. He's a very good player, way too good of a player to not bounce back or recover.''
At Torrey Pines, Stanley led by seven shots early in the final round, and still had a four-shot lead as he stood on the tee at the par-5 18th. But his third shot had too much spin and didn't get high enough on the green, spinning down the slope and into the water. He three-putted from 45 feet, then lost to Snedeker on the second playoff hole when his 5-foot par putt caught the right edge of the cup.
"I'm never going to forget that,'' Stanley said. "But I think it makes this one a lot sweeter, just being able to bounce back. I'm kind of at a loss for words. I'm very grateful for the support I've gotten. It's unbelievable. Unbelievable turnaround.''
The 24-year-old former Clemson player from Gig Harbor, Wash., earned $1,098,000 for his first PGA Tour title.
One of the tour's longest hitters at only 5-foot-11 and 165 pounds, Stanley birdied the par-5 13th and par-4 14th to take a one-stroke lead at 15 under. On No. 13, he powered a 376-yard drive through the desert area to set up the tying two-putt birdie.
"Got a really good break there. Not quite sure how that ball ended up where it did,'' Stanley said. "We only hit 9-iron in there.''
On 14, he hit a 325-yard drive down the middle and holed a 12-footer to take lead.
"Kind of a chip wedge in there,'' he said.
Levin, winless on the PGA Tour, birdied the 14th to regain a share of the lead, but followed with a double-bogey 7 on the par-5 15th.
"I wasn't doing trying to do anything different,'' Levin said "It had to be my mind. You get weird thoughts creeping in here and there. At least, I do. I think it was more my mind than my swing. Just kind of just wanting it a little too much.''
On 15, Levin's drive bounced off the cart path on the right and ended up against a cactus in the desert area. He took an awkward stance near the cactus and got the ball back into the second cut just off the fairway with a hockey-style slap with his driver. He emerged with jumping cholla stuck in his shirt and pants, then hit his third shot in the water short and right of the green.
"I pushed it a little bit, but I guess I didn't hit enough club,'' Levin said. "I thought 4-iron would go over the green and 5-iron didn't carry.''
Stanley parred the final three holes, hitting a difficult recovery shot to 20 feet from an awkward angle under cactus to the right of the green on the short par-4 17th.
"It's not a shot you really ever practice,'' Stanley said. "I had pitching wedge out, Brett (Waldman, his caddie) gave me the sand wedge. Just shut the face and tried to play a little bit of a hook, and it came off perfect.''
Playing two groups ahead of Levin, Stanley birdied five of the first 11 holes to get to 13 under, and within three strokes of the faltering leader.
Levin birdied No. 3 to reach 18 under, but bogeyed Nos. 4 and 6 and dropped two more strokes on 11 and 12 to let Stanley into the mix. Stanley, though, wasn't fully aware where he stood.
"I didn't pay much attention to the leaderboards until maybe four or five holes left,'' Stanley said. "Once I made a couple birdies there on the back nine, I figured I was maybe getting close. But I didn't really think about it too much today.
"I made the mistake of thinking about it probably all of the final round last week. So, this week, I just kind of tried to just let it happen.''
DIVOTS: Crane shot a 66. … Phil Mickelson tied for 26th at 6 under after a 73. "I just couldn't quite get it going,'' the former Arizona State star said. … The crowd was announced at 58,447, bringing the seven-day total to 518,262. A tournament-record 173,210 watched play Saturday.

With Calgary reported to be the city leading Canada's economic recovery, some might wonder if this is at the expense of arts and culture. Others are taking a proactive line to make sure this isn't the case, particularly via activism in the lead-up to this month's civic elections. In this spirit, my report will look at a range of projects that connect community and economies of scale.
Mark Lowe, Bin 15
Calgary is currently host to the Mountain Standard Time Performative Festival. First held in 2001, M:ST has grown to become a mainstay for performative practices in the city. The 2010 incarnation includes Governor General Award-winner Istvan Kantor, Reona Brass, Dave Dyment, Mark Lowe, and a first time collaboration between Suzen Green and Ryan Statz. Lowe's performative installation Bin 15 is set inside a grain silo and probes urban rural schisms, specifically the corporate monopolizing of family farms. Conceptually reminiscent of Rodney Graham's City Self/Country Self, this project may not have the same "kick" as Graham's, but Lowe's sound art generated inside the bin is sure to pack a punch.
Suzen Green and Ryan Statz, How To Look For Work In The Big City
Another work that probes the challenges of meaningful employment is How to Look for Work in the Big City by Ryan Statz and Suzen Green. For this project, Statz will wear a three piece suit knitted by his partner, Green, trading in a "myth amongst the knitting community that a girl should never knit a sweater for her boyfriend, under the fear that all the labour and love used in its production will go unappreciated, or worse still, signal the demise of the relationship." This public up-selling is sure to turn heads and bring serious fun to the streets.
Jennifer Crighton, The Condemned, 2010, installation detail
On another community front at the Pith Gallery and Studios, you can take in the compelling handmade installation work of Jennifer Crighton. This relatively new space housed inside an old building with almost obscured deco lines is located in Inglewood: one of Calgary's oldest communities and one that is now subject to gentrification. This topic is addressed in the upstairs gallery via Crighton's The Condemned. Three large-scale drawings, tiled together on scrap paper, depict local old houses. It's worth noting that a candidate for the upcoming municipal elections not only visited the space, but also recognized the work. For although the glory years here have passed, she knew that one property had later become a brothel. From here, one can make links to Crighton's interest in building new culture as she wonders aloud, "Are we integrating history?"
Jennifer Crighton, Sweater Porn, 2010, installation detail
This leads us to the downstairs exhibition space, home to the artist's Sweater Porn. We find mannequins embracing on a dated sectional couch and wall works bearing, respectively, custom knitted forms and drawn knit patterns atop porn pics. With the gallery's front room feel, Crighton is well placed to articulate that "craft and pornography often intersect around obsession… are found in private domestic environments…[and that] the relationship between these two things may be closer than we think." Hence, Crighton's additional reference to "stitch'n'bitch" sessions. Similarly, a symbiotic contrast would be that one obsession is invariably driven by women and the other by men. With the couch installation set in a dimly lit gallery window, a passing audience may wonder if the mannequins are cloaked in crocheted shawls or layered with fetishistic garments of titillation. Either way here are oft-hidden economies that enshrine historical craft with contemporary art.
Guido Molinari, Mutation Rythmique Rouge-Orange, 1966, acrylic on canvas
Turning to the commercial gallery scene, Paul Kuhn has two shows this fall that promise to invigorate historical and contemporary approaches to the continuum of art and economics. In October/November, there's a solo exhibition from the estate of Guido Molinari: one of Canada's foremost painters from the modernist era. Think fields of colour, stripes, and hardening edges. Kuhn and Molinari were longtime friends (the artist passed away in 2004) and, although Molinari was known as a proactive individual inclined to sell work from his own studio, Kuhn has dealt his work since 1995. For this show, visitors will be treated to paintings from the 1960s, including canvasses up to six by eleven feet. Kuhn observes, "this is the classic Molinari period."
Edward Burtynsky, Oil Spill #10, Oil Slick at Rip Tide, Gulf of Mexico, June 24 2010, 2010, chromogenic print
Following in November, Kuhn presents one of Canada's biggest living names in contemporary art, photographer Edward Burtynsky. Known for his large format images depicting industrial development, this upcoming exhibit is drawn from two series: Oil and Water. Central to the show is new work from the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Apparently art really can create ripples through the crude currency lying at the heart of Canada's energy business. Burtynsky will be in attendance at the opening on November 20th.
Investment of a different nature is occurring over at the University of Calgary where a major new building project is underway that will see the Nickle Arts Museum move to a new home in the Taylor Family Digital Library. This will see a shift from the conventions of the current discrete exhibition spaces into three new galleries spread over two floors, configured in a much more open format. Opportunities for programming multimedia and new technology will be enhanced in what appears to be a convergence of services and architecture.
From Unraveling the Yarns: War Rugs and Soldiers
John Wright, newly appointed Director of Arts and Culture for Library and Cultural Resources calls the move, "an integration of ideas, collections, and people, with art and archives presented as a whole to further discovery and research." One of the downsides of the move is that for the next year the Nickle has ceased regular exhibition programming while the twenty-five thousand holdings in the permanent collections are being prepared for relocation. On the upside, the new space will be free of charge, bring in more traffic, and, during the transition, weekly lunchtime lectures will continue in the old space until the end of the year. Additionally, Michele Hardy from the Nickle has co-curated an offsite exhibit called Unraveling the Yarns: War Rugs and Soldiers. This showcases the Fyke Collection of Afghan War Rugs alongside some of the weapons that are depicted in these contemporary handmade weavings. The project is mounted at Founders' Gallery in The Military Museum.
Artsvote Flashmob
In conclusion, while Calgary still has no major public museum of modern or contemporary art, there's clearly plenty of activity to demonstrate things are moving forward. And for those that have been following my updates on transitions at other institutions, not only does ACAD have a new president (Dr. Daniel Doz), so too has curator Wayne Baerwaldt been named acting Vice President Research and Academic Affairs. And for those who want a say in the bigger picture this fall at the polls, Artsvote has been taking to the streets to mobilize the cultural sector. From flashmobs to polling candidates on their arts' platforms, the cultural economy is not rolling over.

About Us
Rx-Safety.com is a family-owned and -run optical lab and internet store. Our goal is to provide our customers with affordable, top-of-the-line prescription safety eyewear. We know that the average working American is doing their best to get by and save a few dollars wherever possible. It is our goal to make eyewear affordable so that our customers don't have to break the bank to get a pair of glasses for work or play. We also strongly believe that safety should not be sacrificed to save a few bucks, and we are proud to offer the highest quality safety eyewear and precision optics at prices that are well below the competition's.
The way we manage to keep our safety eyewear so affordable is simple: we do our own work. Our full prescription optical lab allows us to process almost all of our prescriptions in-house, where most of the competition has to purchase prescription lenses from an outside lab. Since we cut out the middle man, we are able to offer our customers significantly reduced prices compared to the competition, even on advanced or complicated prescription glasses such as wraparounds or motorcycle glasses with removable facial cavity seals. On top of that, our prescription optical lab features some of the most advanced technology, including a full line of CNC edging machines and an advanced CNC generator. We are able to produce hundreds of pairs of prescription lenses a week thanks to our committed staff and array of prescription generators, polishers, edgers, and coating machines.
Our company is a family in more ways than one. Our owners - Robert Phillips and his son, Ryan Phillips - launched Rx-Safety.com in 2001 in Middlesex, NJ, after the Phillips family had already been in the optical industry for almost 100 years. in 2001, the company had four employees (including the owners) and ran only a few jobs a day. Today, our company has grown to over 40 employees and we ship between 100 and 200 packages daily. We are proud of our ability to produce high-quality prescription safety glasses in a timely manner, and it's all thanks to our loyal and dedicated team. Rx-Safety encourages a "family" atmosphere, because we know that our team's positive attitude and dedication is what will keep us growing. Our employees are our strength, and we would not have grown to where we are today if it wasn't for them. We are proud of our family.
Rx-Safety specializes in prescription wraparound safety glasses, impact safety, and customization. If there is something that you are unsure of, or if you need help with finding what's right for you, please don't hesitate to contact us. One of our experienced staff members will be more than happy to help you find what you're looking for. From all of us here at the Rx-Safety family, we look forward to working with you, and thanks for your patronage!

A big-screen adapation of hit video game series Metal Gear Solid has been in the works for years. Every now and then reports have surfaced indicating a possible production, but nothing has ever come of it.
In 2012 however, a film version was announced at the series' 25th anniversary celebrations. With Sony Pictures in charge and veteran film producer Avi Arad involved, it was a more concrete announcement than we've heard in many years, and now there may be a director in the mix as well.
That man is Jordan Vogt-Roberts. Haven't heard of him? Well, he's only directed one film, Kings of Summer last year, but it was a critically acclaimed debut that shot Vogt-Roberts to the top of Hollywood's hot up-and-comers list.
Deadline reports that the director is in early talks to helm the project, which has endured a problematic path due to creative differences between the game's creators (Hideo Kojima and Konami) and the studio.
Having now reached a middle ground, the story of stealth operative Soldi Snake can at last be told on the big screen.
Based on the 1998 video game, Metal Gear Solid follows Snake as he infiltrates a nucelar weapons facility to rescue hostages and stop a terrorist threat. That may sound like a basic premise, but then there's the matter of a giant robot and a back-story involving cloning.
That's just scratching the surface of Metal Gear Solid's lunacy. In the subsequent three core numbered console titles - as well as some spin-offs and this year's MGS 5 set-up Ground Zeroes - the series has spun a complex web of narrative spanning many decades.
Let's hope the film won't be quite so confusing.

Ken Cronin, CEO of UKOOG
By Mark Lammey
The UK's onshore oil and gas trade body has called for the Scottish Government to realise fracking's potential and ditch its moratorium on the technology.
UK Onshore Oil and Gas (UKOOG) said the government's own research had debunked many of the wilder claims about fracking's environmental impacts and that continuing the moratorium was unjustified.
A moratorium on unconventional oil and gas development in Scotland has been in place since January 2015 while the government investigates evidence on its potential impact.
A consultation on fracking was launched earlier this year and finishes at the end of May. A final decision is expected to be made by ministers by the end of the year.
UKOOG today issued its response to the consultation, arguing that the "science is clear" and that regulation was strong enough to deal with the roll out of shale in Scotland.
The trade body said there is no viable or affordable alternative to natural gas for use in domestic and industrial heating.
UKOOG chief executive Ken Cronin said: "We strongly believe that there is a significant economic opportunity for Scotland but we recognise that as a result of a deeply polarised debate and an extremely unfair depiction by some of the onshore oil and gas industry there is still much to do to ensure local communities within the central shale belt have proper information.
"Our conviction that a moratorium is no longer justified is underlined by the fact 30 wells have been drilled in the last 20 years and gas has been produced in the central belt of Scotland. This has happened without incident – to the environment or to public health."…

Study Abroad Students Need InsuranceFiled Under: Health Insurance
Study abroad insurance makes certain that if you get ill or injured while in another country for academic purposes, you will still have the same access to great, affordable healthcare you would have in your home country. Without it, you could face expensive bills that could take months to pay off.
You see, the healthcare coverage you have in your home country probably doesn't cover injuries and illnesses that occur overseas. So if you have to visit the doctor, the emergency room, or the hospital, you will have to pay for the expenses completely out of pocket. And since you are used to paying co-pays for doctor's visits, you likely don't realize that the true, uninsured cost of a visit can be $200 just for a basic visit.
With study abroad insurance, you'll only pay a fraction of the costs incurred by your medical needs - just like you would at home. Office visits, hospital visits, and prescriptions are all covered. So while you complete your international study adventure, you can focus on the experience at hand; not the worry of trying to pay for expensive medical bills. Commenting is not available in this channel entry.
