Honoring Military Veteran Employees: Things You Can Do
There are over 19 million military veterans living in the United States, and many of these people are employed in the same civilian jobs as their neighbors and friends. Veterans bag groceries, fix cars, answer phones, and work in the medical field. If your business has a military veteran in its employ and you want to honor your employee in a very special way, here are things you can do to say you appreciate all the work they've done to keep your freedom intact today.
Plaques or awards
On holidays where honoring veterans is especially appropriate, such as Flag Day and Veteran's Day, you can display a plaque or award in your employee's honor. This plaque can feature a military symbol of the branch your employee has served in or simply be a plaque that expresses your company's gratitude for your employee's years of service. You can display these plaques and awards on special days in the main office, and place them in a break room or other discreet area during the rest of the year so you can still honor your military employee without always making them center stage.
If you are concerned about your other employees being jealous of the "special attention" your military employee gets, you can get a plaque with all your other employees' names on it that you can display next to the military veteran's plaque or award. The other plaque can say something along the lines of, "These valued employees thank our veterans" so all your employees feel recognized when honoring their veteran employee.
Honoring holidays
Your company may be open every day of the week or may only close during the major holidays, such as Christmas or New Year's Day. If this is the case, make sure your military veteran employees can still take off the national holidays that pertain most to them, such as Independence Day. If the rest of your employees still have to work on these days while your military employee takes time off, you can remedy this situation by giving your other employees overtime or holiday bonus pay for their hard work.
You may also want to begin closing your business on military holidays in honor of your veteran employees and allow all your employees to have this special time off with or without holiday pay. Discuss with your employees whether they would like to have this extra time off, or if they would be willing to work a half or even full day with compensation.
Honoring military veterans in the workplace is a great way to say you are grateful for their hard work to protect your freedom. In placing out plaques and awards and giving time off for appropriate holidays, your veteran employees can feel like they are appreciated in many ways.
For personalized plaques and other awards, contact a company such as Hometown Awards.

What if there is more than 1 Carer in the same Household?
Only 1 person may claim a Carers Allowance to look after someone. So if there are 2 of you caring for 1 person, then only 1 of you may claim.
If, however, 2 people are cared for in a house, e.g. a married couple take care of 2 disabled elderly relatives, then both of the carers would be able to claim, as they each care for 1 other person.
This would also apply for a husband who was the carer for his wife, while she in turn was the carer for a disabled child in the same house. Both the husband and wife would be able to claim Carers Allowance. You can even have the situation where a husband and wife take care of each other. Provided they both meet the basic conditions, they could each be paid carers allowance.

Growing up I always dreaded the day when pea soup was served in school. I used to stir it around to cover all edges of the bowl so it looked like I had eaten some. The highlight of the pea soup day was that we always got pancakes for desert.
Today I love pea soup but I make it with frozen green peas and not the Swedish traditional yellow split pea.
I have garnished this soup with sprouts, cress and toasted coconut. I like adding some crunch to a puréed soup or I have this feeling of eating baby food. I toasted the coconut flakes with 1/2 a table spoon of maple syrup and a sprinkle of salt.
Added bonus with this soup that it only take 15 minutes to make!
Time 15 minutes
Serves 4
Pea, Mint and Coconut Soup
800 g peas, I use frozen petit pois
4 x spring onions
5 springs of mint, plus extra for garnish
1 lime, juiced
400 ml coconut milk
300 ml boiling water
1 vegetable stock cube
1 tbsp cold pressed virgin coconut oil
Start with boiling the kettle. Place a large saucepan on the hob with a table spoon of coconut oil.
Chop the spring onion and sauté on medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Add the peas, stock, water and coconut milk, bring to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Any longer and the peas will loose their vibrant green.
Take the soup off the heat and add the lime juice and fresh mint. Using a hand blender, blitz the soup until smooth. Taste and add more lime and salt if needed.
Serve with some mint, sprouts (I used alfa alfa and radish sprouts), cress and maple toasted coconut flakes.

VENUEThe Richmond Weekender
22 Bendigo Street, Richmond
Director Jeff Malmberg
Country USA
Year 2010

Language 83 min
This multiple prize-winning documentary is a surprising tale of love! secrets! pain! adventure! – and dual realities.
The inspiring story of 'Marwencol' is one of a man who chooses to build a new life and a new world – in miniature. After Mark Hogancamp is gravely injured in a bar brawl he creates a 1/6th scale World War II-era town as a form of DIY therapy. Populating it with figurines of friends, family and his attackers, he photographs his brave new world with stunning and often comic realism. Then Marwencol is invited to hang in a New York gallery and Hogancamp is forced to confront the spectacular imitation between his life and his art.
Marwencol screens as part of The Richmond Weekender, a unique event series happening at the former Channel 9 Television Studios every weekend throughout March. The Richmond Weekender screenings are age 18+ events.
–Jeff Malmberg, Director
"Who's to say that Mark's constructed reality is any less valid than most people's "real world?" In Marwencol, they may find more love, pain, morality and feeling than in their actual lives."
–The Village Voice
"Exactly the sort of mysterious and almost holy experience you hope to get from documentaries and rarely do, Jeff Malmberg's Marwencol is something like a homegrown slice of Herzog oddness, complete with true-crime backfill and juicy metafictive upshot."

Refer your loved one and receive $100 voucher each*!
*terms and conditions apply
When you're a family member coping with the hearing loss of a loved one, you may encounter frustration, the feeling of being ignored, separation from the relationship and isolation from daily family life. These are all normal reactions to the communication difficulties you are experiencing. However, family life doesn't have to suffer if everyone can agree to follow these 10 tips.
1. Don't take it personally
When communication challenges pop up, take a deep breath. Remind yourself – no one is purposely trying to be rude. If you don't understand someone, take it in stride; you can fix it and move on, rather than letting it become cause for anger.
2. Get the listener's attention first
When you want to speak to someone, especially when they're involved in a task, gently touch them to get their attention before speaking. Alternately, saying their name and waiting for them to look at you before continuing ensures you have their attention before speaking. This gives them a chance to concentrate on listening to you and if necessary, reduce background noise by muting the TV or turning off the faucet, before you begin speaking.
3. Clearer is better than louder
Speaking clearly, enunciating each syllable, generally helps the person with hearing loss understand more than shouting.
4. Add pauses to your speech
People often think their family member with hearing loss will understand more if they slow speech down dramatically and drag out each word. This is a myth. It's much more effective to slow speech down a bit by putting a slightly longer pause between each word, rather than saying the words slowly.
5. Avoid one-word answers
For a person with hearing loss, a one-word "yes" answer can sound strikingly similar to a one-word "no" answer. This is especially true in background noise or when the listener can't see the speaker's face. Instead, practice saying things like, "Yes, I did," or "No, we weren't." Those extra syllables don't take much effort and go a long way to helping the listener understand what you said. People with hearing loss can benefit from more words to gather the meaning. Even "cannot" is easier to understand than "can't," which is easily mistaken for "can" and may cause disastrous results.
6. Get closer
In challenging hearing situations, like restaurants, parties or places with lots of background noise, position yourself so you are face-to-face with the person with whom you're conversing. Resist the temptation to call out from another room – walk to the location of the person you're seeking and then talk at a normal level.
7. Rephrase, don't repeat
If someone indicates they don't understand what you said, avoid saying the exact same thing again. Instead, rephrase the sentence so it's stated differently.
8. Get professional help
If communication difficulties are creating family conflict, help is available. Most hearing care practitioners are experts at helping family members learn new communication strategies and would be happy to assist. Advice coming from a neutral third-party is often easier to accept than when it comes from a loved one.
9. Wear the hearing aids
If you're the person with hearing loss and you have hearing aids, wear them consistently. It shows you're doing your part to enable communication. If you're the family member of a person who is resistant to wearing hearing aids, show appreciation when they do wear them. Buying your loved one a package of hearing aid batteries is a kind gesture to show you care about being able to communicate with them.
10. Get the facts
If you think you or your family member may be having trouble hearing clearly, you owe it to yourself and your family to find out what's going on. Only a licensed professional hearing care practitioner or physician can thoroughly test hearing and determine the best course of action for hearing loss. Don't delay getting a hearing test – every day is a new opportunity to communicate effectively with your loved ones.

This kid didn't actually catch the homer, but he may have been in Aaron Judge's way.
Ready for a weird sequence?
Astros shortstop Carlos Correa opened the scoring in Game 2 of the ALCS with a home run that just barely cleared the fence in right field.
An eager young fan sitting in the outfield sparked a bit of controversy on the play after he appeared to reach for the ball and potentially distract Yankees rightfielder Aaron Judge.
For the second straight game, Carlos Correa puts the Astros on the board first https://t.co/2nT1mn7S3s— Sports Illustrated (@SInow) October 14, 2017
Although it's very clear from the replay the kid didn't actually catch the home run ball with his glove, the play was close enough to where it fell into a sort of gray area. Judge likely wouldn't have caught it anyway, but it was close enough to start some confusion online and elsewhere. The kid did appear to stick his glove over the fence.
Houston took a 1–0 lead on the solo shot, before the Yankees tied in in the next half-inning when Todd Frazier hit a double that...
Got stuck in the fence.

At times, I wonder whether we actually know what our flowers mean before we buy a bouquet for our loved one; or select certain seasonal flowers for an event decoration. In one of our previous articles, we commented that most flowers do not need any introduction; when presented appropriately, floral gifts put a smile on even a sad face, and they encode special memories for the both the giver and the taker. However, demonstration of knowledge of artistic symbolism for your floral gifts can show that you've not merely picked up something from the stands but that you've thoroughly judged the relevance of the same. What a great way to establish an artistic and emotional connect with your date, or a personal connect with your business client!
At Inspirations Florist, we believe in creating that personal touch for your gift recipient; you can choose from our standard or luxury bouquets, baskets, and orchid pots, and also order bespoke flower arrangements of single-type or multiple-type flowers. This is a lot easier to do when you know some artistic or scientific significance of the flowers. We've put together this article for you to be able to add relevant teeny-tiny personal notes to your chosen floral ensemble.
Carnation is truly a fascinating flower; one could pretentiously get lost in its whirlwind floral whorls. Its fragrance is often spicy or peppery. It therefore, does stand for fascination, impulsiveness and adventure. In a full-grown flower's whorls, you could very carefully slip in little love notes and thus pleasantly surprise your better half (unless he or she is a person who doesn't like to mess with the natural beauty of the flower). Carnation is rarely gifted as a single-type bouquet; you'd rather include other flowers like Gypsophila or lilies to make your bouquet more interesting. However, a singleton Carnation can be a sweet surprise gift at any time of the day. Carnation goes well with rounded corporate bouquets too.
Gerberas are the most non-fussy flowers in our opinion. They grow with ease and can be maintained easily. You'll find these flowers in a variety of colours and quantities in our stores. A smile for every face, these flowers are great to cheer-up a person quickly; you don't have to plan way too ahead of time in order to gift gerberas to a friend or a BFF. Gerberas stand for cheerfulness, optimism and innocence. At Inspirations Florist, you'll find these flowers in most of our bouquets and baskets, and we often stitch select Gerberas and Gypsophila florets to create beautiful button-holes for your suit too. We recently did a bespoke white Gerbera and rose heart-tribute for a funeral service; I think no other flower could have had such a calming effect as this one.
Rose is undoubtedly the most famous symbol of love. The act of gifting a bouquet of red roses is often (and in many cultures) considered as equivalent to exchanging passionate kisses between lovers. White roses are great to be gifted to someone you love but not necessarily in a romantic relationship. It could be your BFF or mother or a sister or anyone you sincerely and eternally admire. Yellow roses are your best bet if you like someone but are not yet sure of how far the relationship might go. Traditionally, yellow roses stand for infidelity but you needn't worry whether your yellow rose bunch gives out a message of flirtatiousness. The only thing that matters is that whether you admire her beauty or intellect, it should genuinely reflect in your personal notes or greetings. As with most flowers, you could slip in a rose of any colour in a multi-floral bouquet, and not worry about whether your recipient would misinterpret your 'only admiration' for 'love'!
Who doesn't go crazy over the charming fragrance of the large white lily at night? Roses may be the best symbol of love but lilies are the best symbolic gifts to indicate any positive pure, serene emotion. Lily buds in a bouquet often signify fertility of a kind: it could be celebration of the birth of a child; or it could even mean prosperity and luck in a new venture one undertakes. The calla lilies are the majestically royal ones; growing a calla lily potted plant is known to bring a positive aura in decorating your home or office space. Gifting lilies often signifies that it is your absolute pleasure to be sharing time with the recipient, and also indicates that you care for that person much more than they think you do. Unopened or half-bloomed lily pods can make good corporate gifts too: they stand long and tall, symbolising a long-term commitment with your client. Symbolically and aesthetically, lilies are my absolute favourites; so much that I sometimes gift white lilies to myself, especially when I feel a pang of self-indulgence or a need for self-appreciation!

TSZPNFEY - the Chinese respiratory gymnastics
FITNESS of the HOUSE - 5 video lessons
One of effective respiratory gimnastik, promoting fast weight loss, has recognized system of exercises bodifleks (BodyFlex). This unusual program was developed by the fifty-three-year-old American Grieg Childers which could return after the birth of three children to itself desired 44th clothing size instead of hated the 56th.
Exercises bodifleks represent combination of special respiratory gymnastics to certain types of loading. Aerobic breath - and on its basis the respiratory gymnastics bodifleks is also developed - saturates organism with oxygen which splits fat; exercises poses promote training of muscles and muscles, returning them elasticity, tighten skin, helping to struggle with wrinkles and cellulitis. At the same time, despite quiet and slow speed, occupations bodifleksy give aerobic effect several times stronger, than intensive occupations by run or power exercises.
Alec Borsenko is the famous writer and the experienced thick gut specialist – bodifleks writes the following about system: "Exercises bodifleks are the best of the ways of enrichment of organism which are available today oxygen. You receive aerobic special effect of times in five quicker, than from running. If you run within hour, then burn 700 kilocalories. If you are engaged hour in ordinary aerobics, you burn 250 kilocalories. If you do one hour of exercise by technique bodifleks, you will precisely get rid of 3500 kilocalories".
Exercises bodifleks can be divided into three groups: isometric, isotonic and stretching.
Isometric involve in work one group of muscles, isotonic, respectively, - a little, and stretching develop elasticity at muscles.
But indispensable condition of result is aerobic breath on the basis of which all exercises are carried out. Bodifleks causes enrichment of organism oxygen which promotes fast combustion of fats and lipids. And it is all way, unusual for the ordinary person, to breathe and receive the oxygen, necessary for organism, – special, so-called phrenic breath when breaths are taken through nose, and exhalations – through mouth is required here. After the first class in system bodifleks the person notes raising of mood, improvement of the general health and vital energy.
Advantages of system bodifleks
* occupations do not take a lot of time: as a rule, for achievement of resistant positive results 15-20 minutes a day there are enough;
* responses about bodifleks testify: waist volume for 5-7 classes in this system can decrease to 5-15 cm;
* bodifleks – the only system of breathing and physical exercises which trains not only body but also has exercises on face rejuvenation and necks (exercises "Lion", "Ugly grimace");
* it is possible to be engaged bodifleksy at any age and in any conditions: independently at home, at work or strener at group trainings.
Features of system bodifleks
* By means of aerobic breath large amount of oxygen which saturates blood comes to organism and together with it it is delivered to tension site that promotes intensive splitting of fats.
* Bodifleks accelerates process of metabolism.
* Bodifleks strengthens lymph flow that promotes the accelerated conclusion of slags, toxins and other harmful substances from organism.
* Bodifleks well influences intensity of reduction of muscles of stomach, causing its reduction in sizes over time, and, therefore, and reduction of quantity of the consumed food.
* Uniqueness of system bodifleks is that it can effectively work in two directions: to promote reduction of total amounts and to model separate problem zones (buttocks, hips, waist, etc.).
Results of trainings on system bodifleks
- loss of excess weight, reduction of volumes in problem zones, reduction of cellulitis;
- decrease in nervous tension, finding of quiet state, cheerfulness;
- improvement of condition of skin;
- improvement of the general health (disposal of snore, locks, migraines, "female" problems);
- general rejuvenation of organism;
- increase in flexibility, grace finding;
- improvement of work of the blood circulatory system, acceleration of cleaning and digestive processes.
Three rules for good result
Rule 1. Regularity
Only systematic trainings provide the necessary load of muscles and yield desired result. And here has no value intensity of loadings: constancy plays crucial role.
Rule 2. Occupations on hungry stomach
Indispensable condition – all classes bodifleksy are given only next the heart. Ideal time – since morning, right after awakening. If there is no opportunity to be engaged since morning, keep in mind that it is possible to start occupations not earlier, than in two-three hours after the last meal.
Rule 3. Refusal of rigid diets
It is not necessary to combine occupations bodifleksy with rigid diet or starvation. The organism during trainings will spend enormous amount of energy which should be filled. If you feel need for decrease in quantity of food, limit yourself in reception of sweet and farinaceous food. There will be quite enough Togo.
Occupations bodifleksy are contraindicated in the following cases:
- at heavy cardiovascular pathologies (heart failure 3-4FK, pulmonary hypertensia, aorta aneurism);
- with the increased intracranial pressure, aneurisms of vessels of brain;
- if in backbone implants are established;
- after the undergone backbone operations (there has to pass at least a year after operation);
- in the presence of sharp inflammatory and infectious diseases (temporary restriction);
- at exacerbation (recurrence) of chronic diseases (during remission it is possible to be engaged bodifleksy, and sometimes and it is necessary);
- at tumoral diseases;
- at bleeding (any localization);
- at pregnancy.
Technology of breath
The technology of breath needs to be mastered surely completely before you start performance of exercises.
To learn it is correct to breathe on system bodifleks, it is recommended to accept initial pose:
1 stage of phrenic breath. Exhalation through mouth
The first that needs to learn, - ability is correct to exhale air from lungs. In this case it is important that lungs were left by completely all fulfilled air. Therefore it is necessary not just to exhale it, and to squeeze out literally – approximately so we leg squeeze out air from ball. That such exhalation has turned out, round lips and extend them a little forward as if you are going to whistle. And then begin to let out quietly and slowly the air through mouth. When you understand that you cannot squeeze out from yourself at all any more, stop and close lips.
2 stage of phrenic breath. Fast breath nose
Now all attention to nose. Provide that you have no mouth at all or it was sewn up with threads. Make sharp breath through nose: inhale as it is possible more stoutly and more sharply, like the vacuum cleaner involving air. Your lungs have to be jam-packed by oxygen.
At similar breath the sound effect is obligatory, and the made sound, the better is louder. And if you inhale absolutely silently, it means that you take breath incorrectly. The fast and strong breath through nose by definition cannot be silent or silent. Try to pull air very much: provide that you were in vacuum, and now to you have allowed to inhale air.
After your lungs are filled to the full and you cannot inhale air no more, stop. Now we switch attention to lips: they are densely closed and do not let out the air. The head is a little raised. And the nose just does not work, provide. That it is absent at all any more. All air is held in itself.
3 stage of phrenic breath. Sharp exhalation mouth from diaphragm
The following task – to push out all involved air through mouth. But it is necessary not just to exhale, and to make it straining stomach, as if beating out air from lungs stomach muscles. For this purpose open widely mouth, prepare, and then sharply squeeze muscles of diaphragm and stomach – then lungs will clench too and will push out all air. Such exhalation has to be followed by the whistling sound which reminds sound leaving the punctured air tire: something the py-y type or "pas - ah".
At this stage all attention has to be on diaphragm – the diaphragm pushes out air outside. Even if muscles of your stomach weak, the diaphragm has to be all the same normally developed. Try, push air as soon as possible.
4 stage of phrenic breath. Breath delay
This stage is considered the most difficult part of breathing exercise. Close lips as it is possible more densely, do not try to involve air nose. In general forget that you have mouth and nose. You have nothing to inhale air.
Incline the head to breast a little. Now attention to stomach. Begin to consider slowly (in mind) and to gradually tighten belt. The stomach leaves inside, turns into flat board. The stomach, intestines and other bodies begin to leave under edges. The stomach as if rises up, beginning to pull for itself intestines. Everything that is in your stomach, rises too and begins to leave under edges.
Now your stomach not flat – it concave, is similar to hollow which is usually formed in the punctured ball. There is feeling that your peritoneum touches backbone.
The stomach needs to be pulled in slowly, counting up at the same time to eight. It is necessary to consider as follows: one-one-one, two-two-two … Most likely at once at you all eight steps will not turn out to hold breath – usually begin with three-four, and already process of trainings ability to eight is reached. Keep in mind: as soon as at you all eight steps turn out to hold breath, you can consider that you have practically mastered preparatory stage. At this stage of delay of breath with simultaneous retraction of stomach all exercises are carried out.
5 stage of phrenic breath. Breath through nose
After you have counted to eight and have felt the stomach around backbone, can inhale. Just relax all muscles and allow air to rush into your lungs. After breath delay lungs are filled with air accompanied by the sound reminding whimper - "vs-sh-sh".
What else it is necessary to know about phrenic breath
It is necessary to understand that if it is about phrenic breath, all five stages are important here. It is impossible to train the first or third and to forget about the second or fourth. Or completely to master the correct breath, but not to master exhalation. Therefore it is necessary to control strictly itself throughout all occupation.
Such breath it is recommended to train in the morning, on an empty stomach, when the stomach was not filled with liquid and food yet. Performance of breathing exercises with the filled stomach can lead to nausea and vomiting. Therefore it is necessary to start trainings right after awakening and reduction of in order.
It is desirable to train at first in front of big mirror. Then it is visible at what stage you do not work at full capacity and where you deviate from the most correct position of body.
Do not forget to air the room before trainings: it is impossible to do breathing exercises indoors with the air filched after night dream.
Directly it is necessary to pass to physical exercises only after full development of all five stages of phrenic breath. On development of technology of phrenic breath 3-4 weeks of continuous daily trainings, as a rule, are required. And when you will master this breath, you can start performance of exercises of the main complex. Begin with 5-timunutny training and gradually increase its duration.
Main set of exercises bodifleks
"Diamond" (we clean fat and we tighten skin of hands)
We begin training with the same pose which you have already mastered at preparatory stage when you learned to breathe correctly: legs are placed, knees of polusognuta, hands rest above knees. We do breathing exercise, then we hold the breath and we pull in stomach. We become straight and put legs at shoulder length, we sphere hands before ourselves. We hold hands so that elbows were highly and only fingers adjoined. That it was easier to hold elbows above, it is possible to round back slightly.
Strain the sphered hands, rest fingers each other and begin to press on fingers as it is possible stronger. Do not move hands - you press only one finger-tips. You have to feel the muscular tension arising on all hand from wrist to breast. Try to keep pressure within eight seconds (eight steps), then exhale, relax hands and return to starting position. Repeat this exercise three times.
When performing exercise elbows should be held highly. If to lower elbows, pressure will go not to muscles of hands, and to thorax. Hands touch each other only finger-tips, and palms do not participate at all.
"Boat" (boat) - for beautiful hips
Sit down on floor and widely move apart direct legs in different directions. After that pull socks to yourself and in the parties, trying to stretch muscles of hips thus even more. Heels at the same time do not come off floor. Put hands for back, rest palms against floor. Try to hold hands straight lines and not to bend them in elbows. In such situation complete all five phases of breathing exercise, incline the head forward, as usual, pull in stomach and hold the breath.
After delay of breath move hands forward and put them directly before yourself palms down, having a little inclined back. Then slowly move fingers of hands forward, without tearing off them from floor, try to bend as low as possible. If all of you do correctly, you will feel how on internal surface of your hips muscles last. Bend forward as low as possible and count to eight. After that exhale, become straight and put hands for back. Execute exercise three times.
During performance of this exercise it is not necessary to strain – hips have to be completely relaxed. It is necessary to stretch muscles of hips gradually, without sharp movements. Try not to bend knees at all – otherwise loading will decrease.
Exercise "Lion" (for lifting of face skin and neck)
Starting position usual: legs on width of 30-35 cm, hands lean above knees. We carry out breathing exercise, then we hold the breath and we accept the main pose, having pulled in at the same time stomach.
We collect lips in small circle, then we open eyes as it is possible more widely and we look up (we tighten muscles under eyes). Along with it we lower lips in circle down (strains cheeks and area of nose) and we put out tongue to limit, without relaxing lips. We count up to eight. We carry out exercise five times.
You should not open mouth too widely: the circle of lips has to be such as if you are surprised to something, i.e. small.
Exercise "Ugly grimace" (for neck and chin)
Perhaps, it will be simpler to execute at first this exercise without respiratory part. Become exactly, you hold the head directly. Remove front lower teeth for upper (i.e. make the wrong bite) and stick out the lips as if you want to kiss standing nearby (remember pictures on which the adjusted monkeys are represented romantically). Pull neck, continuing to stick out lips until you feel that your neck is strained to limit. And now slowly raise the head up and look at ceiling – you have to feel severe stretching from chin tip to the breast. Also it is not necessary to be surprised when next day you feel rather severe pain in neck – before these muscles never so strained.
When exercise is mastered, try to combine these grimaces with breathing exercise. At first accept the main pose for breath, execute breathing exercise, then, as usual, pull in stomach and hold the breath. And now become in the main pose – become straight, take away hands a little back, raise chin up. Stands on a tiptoe it is impossible – soles have to concern floor completely.
When you master this exercise (and you will understand as far as it justifies the name), try to combine it with other parts of exercise. There is initial pose, as well as the main pose for breath – hands over knees, legs are placed, buttocks in such situation as though you want to sit down. Having executed this breathing exercise, hold the breath, pull in stomach, and return to the main pose. Execute exercise "Ugly grimace" four-five times, holding every time the breath into eight accounts.
Exercise "Lateral extension" (on muscles of the lower part of stomach and waist)
Accept the main pose for breath, execute breathing exercise, then pull in stomach and become in the main pose. For this purpose lower the left hand – now on the bent left knee there is your elbow. Delay sock of the right leg and extend this leg aside, at the same time the foot should not come off floor. Your weight has to fall on the left knee. Then raise the right hand up and last it to the left side – sideways it has to be felt how all muscles from waist and to armpit last. And the hand has to be the most direct and be yours over the head.
Sustain such pose all eight accounts, then relax and take breath. Execute this exercise on three-four times for each party.
When you raise hand, do not bend it in elbow – otherwise the extension will be executed incorrectly. And for good extension it is necessary to watch that fingers of your extended leg were tense. Also do not bend forward – you hold back directly.
Exercise "Procrastination of leg back" (Swallow) - strengthening of muscles of hips and buttocks
Accept initial pose: fall by floor, lean on palms and knees, and then – on elbows. Extend one leg back, fingers of this leg "look down". Distribute the weight on hands and the bent leg. At the same time your head has to be raised, and you look directly forward. Now complete all five phases of breathing exercise. At the end you pull in stomach and you hold the breath. And now you accept the main pose: you raise the direct leg which is taken away back as it is possible above, still you pull sock to yourself.
Provide: all your wealth consists between buttocks now – squeeze them with such force that the big gluteus has strained. Continuing to hold the breath, squeeze buttocks yes of eight accounts. After that take breath and lower leg. Execute this exercise on three times on each leg.
Very important during performance of exercise not to delay sock of the straightened leg – it can change blood circulation in which there is burning fat, and then it will go to the area of calves, and we need to train big gluteuses, but not calves. The sock has to "look" at you. The straight line should hold the leg which is taken away back – then in gluteuses the necessary tension will be created. It is necessary to rest against floor only elbows and at all not palms.
Exercise "Scissors" (strengthening of muscles of the lower part of stomach)
Accept initial pose: lay down on back, straighten legs. Put hands palms to yourself under buttocks down. The head lies on floor, the waist is also pressed to floor – it should not come off during exercise performance. At first, as usual, we do breathing exercise, then we pull in stomach, we hold the breath and we pass to the main pose.
We raise legs up – they have to be at distance about ten centimeters from floor. Also we begin to do fast wide moves: at first we part legs in the parties, then we cross them (i.e. we do all exercise, familiar since the childhood, "Scissors"). We try to extend socks as it is possible stronger and we do not cave in in waist. Make 9-10 moves, then lower legs, have a little a rest. Repeat this exercise three-four times.
You should not raise legs over floor higher than ten centimeters – thus you reduce load of press. Do not tear off the head from floor, and always you keep palms under the buttocks.
Exercise "Cat" (universal exercise)
Exercise "Cat" is considered universal and the most useful of all system of exercises bodifleks – it involves area of back, hips and stomach at once.
Accept initial pose: go down on all fours, lean on palms and knees. You hold the head exactly, you look forward. Back and hands – straight lines. Do breathing exercise, as usual, hold the breath, pull in stomach and accept the main pose: incline the head down, at the same time curving back up as it is possible above – like cat who is extended after dream. Record such situation into eight accounts then inhale and return to initial pose. Repeat exercise "Cat" several times, and then relax.
It is more preferable to carry out this exercise right after awakening, before breakfast. As a last resort, after food there have to pass at least two hours. It is necessary to accept the main pose slowly, smoothly, without doing sharp movements. At right execution exercise has to look as one wave which is rolled from stomach and to back.
Exercise "Abdominal tension" (strengthening of muscles of upper and lower press)
This exercise not only strengthens press muscles, cleans excess fat in stomach, it still stimulates blood circulation, improves work of heart, vessels, urinary system, respiratory bodies, gastrointestinal tract.
Accept initial pose: lay down on back, having slightly bent legs in knees. Densely press foot to floor – they have to stand on distance about 35 centimeters from each other. Raise hands up – the head lies on floor – and reach for ceiling. Execute breathing exercise, as usual, properly pull in the stomach, hold the breath and accept the main pose: raise shoulders, at the same time keep hands straight lines, continue to last up. Cast away the head a little back and focus the look on the imagined point located on ceiling behind you. Try to raise shoulders, and also breast as it is possible above. Then slowly fall back by floor – at first lower back, and already then shoulders and the head. As soon as the head appears on floor – at once again rise and last up. Hold the breath and you hold the recorded situation eight accounts. Exhale, fall by floor and relax. Do exercise three more times.
During performance of this exercise it is not necessary to be shaken or make a start from floor – only one muscles of press have to work. The head should be held a little cast away back, having raised chin. It is impossible to press chin to neck at all – it is possible to injure neck. It is also not necessary to stick out stomach when you last up, - at all not those muscles will work differently. Try as it is possible to pull in stronger stomach and densely press waist to floor.
Exercise of "Seyko" (strengthening of hips, disposal of "riding breeches" and fatty excess overknee)
Accept initial pose: kneel, resting hands against floor. Then straighten the right leg, extend it to the right side so that it was at right angle in relation to body. You hold back exactly, do not bend knee of the right leg, and lower foot and put on floor. As usual, execute breathing exercise, at the end hold the breath and pull in stomach.
Further you pass to the main pose: raise the extended leg to the hip level that it was parallel to floor. Then pull this leg forward, trying to get the head. Try to hold leg as it is possible above and surely you watch that it was always straight line. Sustain pose into eight accounts, exhale, then lower leg, accept initial pose. Change leg and do the same exercise already for the left leg. In total it is necessary to execute three repetitions on each leg.
During performance of exercise do not bend elbows, it is possible to reject only a little the body to keep balance. The leg needs to be raised as it is possible above and as it is possible to pull stronger it to the head.
Exercise "Pretzel" (training of muscles of hips and forming of waist)
Accept initial pose: sit down on floor, having crossed legs in knees so that the left knee was over right. This exercise is considered bilateral: at first it needs to be carried out on one party when the left leg is from above, and then – in other party, having changed the left leg for right. The leg which is below needs to be held directly.
Take away the left hand for back, rest it against floor, and right put on the left knee.

About UU and Starr King Church of Hayward
Background on Unitarian Universalism: the uncommon denomination
Imagine a Religion
- Where People with Different Beliefs Worship as One Faith
- Where Inspiration Comes From Not One but Many Spiritual Sources
- For People Who Simply Can't Accept What They've Always Been Asked to Believe
- Where All Are Welcome
That's Unitarian Universalism, the uncommon denomination.
Unitarian Universalism (UU) is congregational, but non-credal. The seven guiding principles of UU are:
- The inherent worth and dignity of every person;
- Justice, equity, and compassion in human relations;
- Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth in our congregations;
- A free and responsible search for truth and meaning;
- The right of conscience and the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large;
- The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all;
- Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.
Unitarian Universalism is the result of the joining of two liberal faiths: Unitarianism and Universalisism.
Unitarianism was founded on the principal that people should be able to choose between creeds, because, "We need not think alike to love alike."
American Unitarianism developed in the New England states, as congregational churches. Resisting a call for Puritan orthodoxy, these Unitarians believed in free will and a benevolent, rather than angry, God.
Universalism developed in the United States, by ministers who did not follow the strict Calvinist doctrines of eternal punishment. Believing instead in loving redemption of all, which ultimately grew into a belief that lasting truth is found in all religions. Universalism challenged individuals to embrace those marginalized by society. Welcoming freed slaves and ordaining women ministers.
Thomas Starr King, described the difference between Unitarians and Universalists as, "Universalists believe that God is too good to damn people, and the Unitarians believe that people are too good to be damned by God."
Starr King UU Church
As to our place in history, the Starr King UU church of Hayward was founded in the 1950s. Our founding members left their previous church because they were opposed to churches signing McCarthy era act of loyalty statements.
We've been an active liberal congregation ever since.
As our parish minister, Katie K., discuses on the get to know our minister page, "In this living tradition, we are encouraged to be the arbiter of our own beliefs, and our congregation is a good illustration of that, as we include liberal Christians, neo-pagans, natural theists, atheists, agnostics and others. "
Our Five Year Vision - (adopted March 2007) A vibrant, dynamic community where meaningful transformative spiritual practice flourishes in an intergenerational environment. A congregation that:
Celebrates our unity in common worship and nurtures each individual's search for truth.
Provides adults and children with a rich array of opportunities for personal and spiritual growth and service to others.
Embraces visitors and welcomes them into our spiritual community.
Actively addresses critical social justice issues, making a real difference in people's lives through moral, spiritual and material support.
Cultivates an aesthetically pleasing environment that enriches our community and spiritual life.
Or As sixteenth century Unitarian, Frances David said, "We need not think alike to love alike."

Friendship between Bhavana and Karthika....
It's very rare that film actresses make lasting friendship among themselves. Most often, friends turn foes without any warning. This is especially true in the case of Bollywood. But, two actresses in Malayalam have formed a thick bond of friendship between themselves.
Bhavana is a busy heroine in Tamil. Soon, Karthika will make her debut in Tamil as the heroine of Pulanvisaaranai-2.
Both are such good friends that if they start talking, they just wouldn't stop.
Bhavana's mother had got so annoyed by their prolonged conversations that she has banned her daughter from using the mobile phone on the sets of her films. It serves two purposes- it doesn't distract her daughter from work when she's at the shooting spots and it helps to avoid unnecessary gossips. Unit members would start assuming that she's talking to a mysterious man on the other side of the phone.

Ousted former President Park Geun-hye unilaterally ordered the shutdown of an inter-Korean industrial complex last year without proper consultations or a legitimate process, a panel report showed Thursday.
The report was unveiled by a nine-member committee of civilian experts that has been reviewing the previous conservative governments' North Korea policies, including Seoul's closure of the Kaesong Industrial Complex in February 2016. The panel was launched by Seoul's unification ministry in September.
The Park administration shut down the factory zone, just north of the inter-Korean border, in response to North Korea's fourth nuclear test and long-range rocket launch in 2016. The move put an end to the last symbol of inter-Korean reconciliation.
"It is verified that the closure was decided by the president's unilateral verbal order without discussions or consultations at the official decision-making level," the report showed.
The former government said that the shutdown was decided at a National Security Council meeting on Feb. 10, 2016, right before the announcement. But the report showed that Park made the order two days earlier.
It also said that the closure was a decision that transcended law, adding that even a political decision amid a security crisis should be made within the boundary of law and under legal procedures.
|This file photo shows the Kaesong Industrial Complex, the now-shuttered inter-Korean industrial park, just north of the inter-Korean border. (Yonhap)
At that time, the ministry said that the decision was aimed at preventing money generated by the industrial park from bankrolling North Korea's nuclear and missile development.
But the panel said that there is no sufficient information or evidence to support the claim that funds from the complex had been used for other purposes.
"This hampers the legitimacy of the government's decision and limits Seoul's future stance over the resumption of the Kaesong complex," the report showed.
The report failed to clear up speculation that Choi Soon-sil, the now-jailed longtime friend of Park, might have been behind the closure. The former government dismissed the allegations.
Choi was at the center of the corruption scandal that led to Park's impeachment in December 2016 and ousting earlier this year.
The report is likely to rekindle a row over under what conditions the operation of the Kaesong complex could be resumed.
The liberal Moon Jae-in government is seeking better inter-Korean ties and engagement with Pyongyang, though it now focuses on employing sanctions and pressure on the North over its nuclear program.
Seoul said the resumption of the industrial park would hinge on progress in the resolution of the North Korean nuclear and missile problems.
"With implementing U.N. Security Council resolutions on the North, we need to re-open the Kaesong park and to actively prepare for it if certain conditions are met due to changes in the global political landscape," the report added.
The committee, meanwhile, added that intelligence on North Korea should not be politically used, saying that the government broke the practice of not revealing details about defections by North Koreans.
Last year, the ministry announced that 12 North Korean female workers at a Chinese restaurant and Thae Yong-ho, a former diplomat stationed in the North's embassy in Britain, defected to the South.
"The ministry passively made the announcement at the request of Seoul's spy agency. It has been identified that the ministry was not even well aware of intelligence details," Im Seong-taek, a lawyer and panel member, told a briefing.
|This photo taken Dec. 28, 2017 shows Kim Jong-su (R), head of a panel of experts reviewing previous conservative governments' North Korea policy, holding a press conference. (Yonhap)
The panel also stressed that the issue of humanitarian assistance should be separately handled from political considerations and civilian inter-Korean exchanges need to be encouraged.
A joint tour program at Mount Kumgang in North Korea has been suspended since 2008, when a South Korean tourist was killed by a North Korean soldier there. Seoul also imposed sanctions banning inter-Korean exchanges in May 2010 to punish North Korea's sinking of a South Korean warship.
The panel's review came as the Moon government seeks to set a North Korea policy that can survive through succeeding administrations regardless of their ideology. It said that South Korea's inter-Korean policy should be made based on public consensus and law and in a consistent manner.
The ministry said it will take into account the panel's policy recommendations in setting its policy on North Korea and unification.
"We humbly accept the panel's review. We will take the necessary steps on reform proposals made by the committee," said the Ministry of Unification said.
A ministry official said that currently, the ministry is not considering issuing an apology or punishing those who were involved in policy decisions under previous conservative governments. (Yonhap)

@markboulton Can't believe I'm defending Comic Sans in any way, but I'm inclined to agree that, in the right context, it's not a bad font.
@dylanharrington Tell Grady to get on Twitter. It'd be nice to see more SolSet peeps around these parts….

East Fife midfielders Kyle Wilkie and Mark Lamont are to follow 'keeper Ryan Goodfellow out of the door at Bayview.
Bayview boss Darren Young is moving swiftly to mould his side ahead of the new campaign and says on-going fitness issues surrounding the midfield pair have contributed to his decision to release them.
He said: "We spoke with Ryan and have just decided to go in a different direction.
"With Kyle and Mark it's more of a fitness thing.
"We have to think about our budget as well and need players who are fully fit."
However, the manager is keen to retain a large bulk of his squad and has offered new deals to Kieran Millar, Chris Duggan, Craig Watson and Aaron Dunsmore while Scott Linton, Kevin Smith, Chris Kane, Pat Slattery, Mark Docherty and Jonathan Page are all contracted through next season.

A Simple Favor – Movie Review
A Simple Favor – Movie Review
Rating: B+ (Very Good)
Trailer/Thumbnail Courtesy eOne Films
Over the past number of years, Paul Feig has become a director known for woman-centric comedies with improvisational gags and action set-pieces. He's proven capable of making those sorts of films, but A Simple Favor marks a solid departure, albeit still with a good number of his trademarks. The plot takes some outlandish and absurd turns, but that's part of its appeal as we see Anna Kendrick's cheery mother try to make sense of the whole ordeal. The dark comedy meshes well with the main mystery as Feig is able to balance the various tones. A Simple Favor is a wild ride that's unapologetic about what it sets out to do.
A Simple Favor is a film gifted with the perfect casting. Anna Kendrick nails the role of a mother who attempts to shine brightness into even the most mundane activities and seeing her embroiled in a dark tale of death allows for a humourous contrast. Feig directs multiple scenes with Kendrick's Stephanie and Blake Lively's Emily having conversations and getting to know each other. Adapting Darcey Bell's novel, screenwriter Jessica Sharzar crafts an unusual friendship between the two that works in setting up Stephanie's determination later on. The movie slowly but surely unravels secrets that help in expanding who they are.
The comedy is a bit darker than often seen in Feig's films and he handles this slight change in tone rather well. Some of the funniest scenes involve Stephanie hosting her online tutorial show, done on a fake YouTube with clever little visual touches. The movie will occasionally cut to a trio of fellow parents looking at the oddball relationship that transpires with the lead protagonists. These small scenes allow Feig to comment on the action from an outsider's perspective, with Andrew Rannells being particularly funny. Feig also knows how to use location incredibly well, with Emily's house feeling larger than life and Stephanie's home is appropriately cozy.
As A Simple Favor tells its story and the mystery's layers start unraveling, the movie excitedly gets even more absurd. In most other films, this would be when the story begins to lose its sustainability. And yet, Feig makes these ridiculous revelations part of the fun and one admires the directions taken. The use of flashbacks is well handled as the movie builds towards its climax. A Simple Favor does start to run a little long during the third act, a common problem with Feig's work. Some slight snipping here and there would have helped matters and not made the final landing feel so sluggish.
It's neat to see Paul Feig go in a different direction with his next film and A Simple Favor does offer many pleasures, particularly when Stephanie finds herself thrust into Emily's world. There are some solid surprises to keep one's interest going and the film successfully jumps between the dark comedy and the more dramatic scenes. Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively have great chemistry, showcasing the strengths of both performers. A Simple Favor is a twisty escapade that is not afraid to take a fair amount of risks and bring the audience down some unpredictable roads.

Since the day it hit the streets amateur 10 years ago, tuners have been modifying the Nissan GT-R in an effort to churn out sufficiency horsepower and torque to provide energy to a small city. These days it's a meeting of one-upmanship, with various shops competing for bragging rights. Extreme Turbo Systems in Vancouver, Washington, is extent the best-known GT-R tuners in the business. Watch as one of the shop's GT-Rs maxes out a dyno with an estimated 2,719 horsepower and 1,587 lb-ft of torque.
The dynamometer in point can only read up to 2,500 horsepower. Past that the chart simply flatlines, interpretation the car was making far more. The final output of 2,719 was determined using a formula based on the car's torque achievement. That's more than five times a stock GT-R's output when it primary debuted in 2007. While that much power is completely unusable on the high road, this car was built purely for drag racing.
The video itself is rather amusing to watch. The driver quickly pulls up a few gears, before going deep into the accelerator. The nose lifts and tires start to stretch. Think top fuel dragster. It's difficult to hear the exhaust note over the tall-pitched turbo whine, but several seconds in, the car coughs, spitting out a few flames and rattling the circumjacent tool boxes and cables, possibly breaking the television. At least ETS unplugged or removed the car's airbags.

Author, of Jesus Calling Sarah Young, has compiled a daily devotional to add to her series entitled Jesus Always Embracing Joy in His Presence. The structure, format, and style mirror Jesus Calling. This devotional also includes 365 entries.
Each entrance is a short reading of a few paragraphs. The entry is written as if Jesus is speaking to the reader. There are reference verses at the bottom of the page revealing where in scripture the inspiration for the entrance was found. The original Jesus Calling devotional has the overarching theme of encouraging the reader to sit in the presence of God each day and consider the personal nature of scripture. The theme for this book is Joy. Sarah Young says "Jesus Always is designed to increase your Joy and strengthen your relationship with Jesus."
My personal experience with reading Jesus Calling as part of my daily devotional is that some days I was encouraged, other days caused me to think differently on a subject and explore it further. This book has done the same in a short time.
"Let me lead you beside quiet waters and restore your soul. Just as lovers don't need to say much to communicate deeply, so it is in your relationship with Me-the Love of your soul."
"I am able to see all your flaws and failures, yet simultaneously love you with glorious, unfailing Love."
These words of encouragement are just two of many statements that fill the pages of Jesus Always. I found the introduction to this book just as impacting as the devotionals I read. This book was created in times of deep distress for Sarah Young. Moving seven times in a short amount of time, increased hearing impairment, vertigo, and other stresses have all been a factor in Sarah Young's desire to remind us that "we can choose to live this way (embracing joy) even during our most challenging times." I hope you find Jesus Always just as encouraging as I have!
In exchange for an honest review, I was given a free copy of the book Always Jesus by booklookbloggers.

LendIt Fintech, the world conference series dedicated to lending and financial services innovation, has released its comprehensive industry white paper on Open banking.
LendIt Fintech conducted this study to provide an in-depth look into how far the Open Banking trend has progressed, and how great an impact it will have on the financial competitive landscape. Through research into banks' developer websites, the latest offerings from commercial banks, fintechs and internet brands, and industry interviews, LendIt affirms the likelihood that Open Banking will restructure the industry in terms of business models and services created through collaboration.
LendIt Fintech CEO Bo Brustkern said "We are excited to share our findings with the industry. We think it's vital to address the fundamental question of exactly what steps a company must take in this era of open banking in order to play a leading role and remain competitive. That's what we set out to achieve with this white paper."
LendIt Fintech interviewed several companies at length for the study, including PwC, Railsbank, Bud, Deposit Solutions, OakNorth and NACHA. More than thirty other companies are identified for their leading efforts in open banking including Fidor, Fiinu, QED Investors, solarisBank, Spiir, Starling Bank, Monzo, Yolt, Visa, Mastercard, HSBC, Barclays, RBS, BBVA, PayPal, Chase, Intuit, Wells Fargo, Zero, Finicity, TrueLayer, ForgeRock, Sainsbury's, Tesco, Apple, Google, Facebook, Alibaba and Tencent.
Speaking to LendIt Fintech, Jamie Campbell, Head of Awareness at Bud, said "If you're a consumer unhappy with your bank's service, you can now switch in an instant to a new financial services provider… on an app, without having to transfer your actual bank account." With power arguably shifting into the hands of the consumer, what's next for today's financial services providers, and how can the established banking system adapt and keep pace with this new generation of challenger banks?

Maui was spayed yesterday, and unfortunately, it wasn't a smooth ride. Most spays are usually quick and fast, and I was not worried at all until we picked her up. When we first saw her, she wiggled her behind like usual, but she let out the most precious cry. I've never heard her cry that way before. The vet told us that she woke up early. I guess the anesthesia wore off too fast; it must have been because she's larger than most Miniature Schnauzers. Anyway, she's drugged up on lots of pain medication and antibiotics. She's slept most of today and all of yesterday, which is a good thing because she's getting her rest. Oh, and to make things worse, parts of her legs and her tummy are bald from the IV and the heart rate monitor. Eeeeeps! It'll take a while for her hair to grow out! Hopefully with all the rest, she'll be back to her normal "pupself" very soon!
Today, she managed to get outside to enjoy some fresh air and sunlight.
As for scrapping, I haven't cranked out any layouts, but I did make two mini albums recently. The first mini album is from my trip to Atlanta.
The second project I created is a heart chipboard album about my family. I really love the way this one turned out, and it means a lot to me.
I have some other pictures I want to share from this past weekend's dinner party. Gloria's cousin took tons of photos from their Lunar New Year celebration that are absolutely stunning!
Last but not least, we found a new dog boutique, Happy Go Lucky in San Jose, which has a bunch of organic treats! I was really excited about this because Maui is pretty limited on what she can eat! Here's a picture of her waiting to eat her sweet potato and chicken treat:
