5 Simple Tips for Fitness Success
Congratulations on taking a forward step to get in shape and feel great. Many people are guilty of wishing they could get a sculpted body from eating junk food and watching TV all day. But that is just not going to happen. Even though getting in shape sounds like a long, time-wasting process, the effort put towards being in shape has many positive effects. If you want to start your journey to having a better body to feel great, here are some tips:
1. Exercise Daily
Exercise daily for at least an hour. You do not have to kill yourself from running, jogging, etc., but you should have some sort of moderate physical activity in your everyday life. If you're looking to shed a few pounds fast, do a higher-level intensity workout. For example, go on a walk at a brisk pace for an hour. Or, you can jog and set certain intervals to sprint during that hour. Make sure you're not in severe pain during your workout. A high-quality, comfortable workout top and sweatpants can protect your muscles to the greatest extent. Just a warning, your muscles will ache after a high-intensity workout. It may be irritating, but that means your body is changing for the better. Be sure to stay hydrated, stretch, and eat foods with a decent amount of protein after each workout. The protein will help keep your muscles, not fat, rebuilding.
2. Eat the Right Foods and Portion Each Meal
No matter how bad your stomach is telling you to go for candy over healthy food, try to stay away from sweets. Sugar from candy will not help you get in shape. Even if it's just a single candy bar, one will eventually lead to another. Fruits and vegetables are the best things to eat when getting into shape. Apples, for example, do a good job of making the stomach feel full for up to 3 to 4 hours. Green vegetables such as green beans and broccoli keep the digestive system clean and running.
Also, stick to lean meats like turkey and chicken. Seafood, such as shrimp, and tilapia are also great alternatives. These foods are full of protein and healthy nutrients to help keep muscles fit and ready for workouts. In addition, be sure to portion what you eat. Having a good metabolism comes from portioning meals. Try to plan out eating six times a day and setting smaller portions, rather than having three large meals throughout the day. This will also help you find yourself breathing smoother when working out rather than huffing and puffing for air. This is because you will have less food in your digestive system, which means more energy is used for your exercise.
3. Keep Track of Calories and Food Intake Per Day
Keeping track of how many calories you eat in a day will be helpful in planning out your physical exercise. Ever wonder why body builders' body masses are so big? That's because they plan out their meals and take in more (healthy) calories than the average person. On the other hand, losing weight and striving for a skinnier physique will involve more physical exercise than calories you ingest.
4. Be Sure to Get Sleep
Even though most of us have eight-hour jobs during the day or night, it is crucial to get enough sleep to recharge the body's batteries. Six to eight hours of sleep will keep the body going throughout the day, but if you happen to feel tired at any point after coming home from work, by all means, take a small nap before exercising. You should only nap for about a half-hour. This will prevent you from staying up later in the night.
5. Stay Motivated
An important key to being in shape is to set goals and keep a positive mindset. If you stay positive, you will be able to push yourself to get that fit body you've always wanted.

Summer Research Assistants Qingyu Wang and Dan Plekhov, both of the Dickinson class of 2014, have just completed an eight week stint working on the Dickinson College Commentaries, and their accomplishments have been substantial. Qingyu is a Computer Science and Economics major from Nanjing, China, and Dan is a Classical Studies and Archaeology major from Glen Rock, New Jersey. They were paid a stipend and given housing through the Christopher Roberts Fund for classical studies at Dickinson.
The first order of business was to create systematic linkages between DCC and Pleiades,
via the Pelagios Project. Pleiades is the main hub online for linked data about the geography of the ancient Mediterranean. More than a map or gazetteer, it is a platform for comprehensively linking data from disparate sources about ancient places. DCC is now one of many digital projects whose geographical data (in our case, notes about specific places mentioned in the texts we cover) is automatically fed into Pleiades. This magic happens through the Pelagios Project, which is a third party that funnels data into Pleiades so the linkages happen without further human intervention.
On our end what needed to be done was to create a single file that listed all of our geographical annotations. We already had Google Earth maps made last summer by Merri Wilson, that contained placemarks with all places mentioned in two of the existing commentaries, each placemark annotated with Pleiades URIs (unique identifiers). The existing Caesar map did not have the Pleiades URIs, and all the linkages in the other commentaries had to be checked for errors. As an Archaeology and Classics major, Dan was perfect for this job, which required a good knowledge of ancient geography, Latin, Greek, and solid research skills.
Meanwhile, Qingyu investigated the .RDF format we were to use for the comprehensive file, and the very specific formatting required by Pelagios. This is not exactly the kind of thing computer science majors do all day, but she dove in and taught herself the skills she needed to complete the work. She was aided by good advice from Sebastian Heath at New York University, and Rainer Simon of Pelagios, a scientist at the Digital Memory Engineering research group of the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology. We had to invent a human-readable code for our specific type of annotations-—so we could keep track of things and every annotation would have a unique designation-—then put all that into a format that Pelagios could deal with. Once we figured all that out, Qingyu created the .RDF file that specifies the linkages between a unique ancient place as referred to in Pleiades, with a specific annotation on a page of our site. Soon, when you go to that place in Pleiades (Gallia, for instance), under "Related Content from Pelagios" you will see "geographical annotations from Dickinson College Commentaries."
Another aspect of that process, in a sense the reverse of it, was the automatic channeling of data from Pleiades into DCC, via the addition of thumbnail pop-ups on the names of places mentioned in the notes fields. As of this summer, when you mouse over such a linked place name in DCC, a thumbnail with a small map pops up, with the link to Pleiades.
The beauty of this is that one does not have to navigate away from the text to get an idea of where roughly the place is; but at the same time, Pleiades is only a click way. Qingyu and Ryan Burke made this happen, using a bit of css code created by Sebastian Heath for use in his ISAW papers. So now DCC is comprehensively linked with Pleiades, and we owe a big debt of thanks not just to Dan and Qingyu, but to the folks at Pleiades (Tom Elliott and Sebastian Heath) and Pelagios (Elton Barker and Rainer Simon).
Dan has extensive training in ArcGIS, so I took advantage of that to have him create some new maps for the Caesar commentary. The showpiece is his beautiful new map to go with BG 1.1, the overview of Gaul. We were also fortunate to get some advice from Caesar expert Andrew Riggsby at the University of Texas, who has written extensively on the representation of space in Caesar. Dan himself did substantial research on geography in Caesar, reading through all of the BG up through Book 6, and making a comprehensive list of places and ethnic names mentioned for future inclusion in an expanded version of our Caesar commentary. He also used ArcGIS to update and beautify several of Antonio Salinas' strategy maps.
Meanwhile, Qingyu was working on her next major project, creating relational database versions of the DCC Latin and Greek Core Vocabulary lists. Derek Frymark ('13) provided spreadsheets that presented the lists in table form. Qingyu hashed out exactly what needed to be done to create the database in Drupal. She miraculously mastered the inner workings of Drupal in virtually no time, imported Derek's spreadsheets, and the result is the attractive, flexible interface you can see here (Latin) and here (Greek). This represents a major improvement to a popular and useful feature of our site, and the feedback from users has been great.
After finishing his mapping efforts, Dan entered the Greek vocabulary lists into our forthcoming site on Lucian's True Story, the first known piece of science fiction. These lists had been initially created by Evan Hayes and Stephen Nimis for their print edition, but had to be adapted for our format.
He then moved on to the preparation of our Callimachus Aetia site, which as you can imagine is a very complicated endeavor due to the fragmentary nature of that text. Just figuring out what we have and don't have as a legacy of Stanford University's Aetia site begun under the direction of Prof. Susan Stephens has been a real chore. Dan has created a new table of contents which, when it goes live, will be an excellent way to see the work as a whole, and to navigate within the text. Dan has been carefully checking everything on the site against the best scholarly editions (Harder, Massimilla, Pfeiffer, D'Alessio), making sure that the formatting is correct, and that the TOC accurately reflects what we are including on the site. He has also helped me to make innumerable judgment calls about what fragments are actually legible and thus to be included on the site, as opposed to so fragmentary as to be for all practical purposes illegible.
Qingyu's third major task, and the most challenging as it turned out, was creating our own instance of Allen & Greenough's Latin Grammar. We link out to A&G at Perseus at the moment, but for various reasons we really need to have our own copy on our servers.
The Perseus Project carried out the original digitization of Allen & Greenough with support from the National Endowment of the Humanities. Perseus makes their tagged XML version available through a Creative Commons CC-BY-SA license, which means anyone can remix, tweak, and build upon it, even for commercial purposes, as long as they give credit and license their new creations under the identical terms. Paul Hudson, author of the SPQR app, provided his own copy of the XML file, along with the php code he wrote that parses the XML file and converts it to an SQLite database. It is this database version of the Perseus XML that forms the basis of our site. Qingyu created the interface based on Hudson's code and a design by Chris Stamas, with the help of Dickinson web developer Ryan Burke. She built it in html, using css and javascript to create the effects and menus on the pages, and used php to make the page interact with the database. All of this took substantial effort and problem solving, but when it goes live I think you'll agree the result is a fast and attractive way to consult A&G, and a real asset to the site.
We view the navigation of Allen & Greenough via the table of contents as a temporary stopgap, and plan in the future to create navigation via Allen & Greenough's Index of Words and Subjects (which is the way most people actually consult the book). But the index has evidently not yet been digitized, and is not part of the XML file. So stay tuned for that. In the long run we would like to have a whole stable of such reference works. My highest priority at the moment would be digitizing Goodell's Greek grammar. But that's a project for another summer!
All these things sound fairly straightforward in retrospect, but they took a great deal of skill, hard work, and creativity on the part of Dan and Qingyu. This summer has been an experiment and an adventure, and in my view a highly successful one, thanks to their outstanding efforts. I am so grateful to have had the chance to work with them, and I believe that the future holds great things for them.

When it comes to gaining insight and understanding of your virtual environment vKernel has some nifty products. They just added two new utilities, Storage Explorer and Change Explorer, to their free vOPS™ Server Explorer that give you more management capabilities with SCOM/SCVMM or vCenter. Sure it's to get you looking into and considering buying the paid stuff with more functionality and remediation but it does provide you with tools to rapidly asses your virtualization environment for free as is. So what did they add?
Storage Explorer
- Gain insight into storage performance and capacity via views across data stores and VMs
- Identifies critical storage issues such as over commitment, low capacity, high latency, VMFS version mismatch
- Alerts you to critical VM issues such as low disk space, latency and throughput issues
- There's sorting and searching support
Change Explorer
- You get a listing of the changes to resource pools, hosts, data stores and VMs within the past week. They also indicate a risk associated with hat change
- You can search & filter to find specific changes
- There is a graphical mapping of changes over a time line for rapid reporting/assessment.
So if you need some free tools to help you get a quick insight into your environment or the need to be informed about changes of performance issues you can try these out. The press release is here http://www.vkernel.com/press-kits/vops-server-explorer-6-3. We have smaller environment at work next to our main production infrastructure where we'd like to test this out. So they need to add support for SCVMM 2012 SP1 a.s.a.p. I think
In a world were complexity reduction is paramount and the TCO/ROI needs to be good from day one competition is heating up between 3rd party vendors active in this arena providing tools to make that happen. This is especially true when they are adding more and more Hyper-V support. It also doesn't hurt to push Microsoft or VMware to make their solutions better.

better skin. see a therapist.
Why do you need a professional skin therapist?
For the same reason doctor and dentist check-ups are necessary: for better health!
Skin is a living part of your body (your largest organ, in fact), that defends against environmental assaults and extreme temperatures. It helps eliminate toxins from the body. It heals from cuts, abrasions and scratches like a champ. It's continually renewing and protecting. Simply put, skin keeps the bad stuff out and the good stuff in.
So why do you dote more on your hair and nails - two items on your body that aren't living?
Your skin needs personal attention from a professional - and that professional is a Dermalogica professional skin therapist.
At Dermalogica, we train more than 75,000 skin therapists a year. Dermalogica professional skin therapists are licensed, intensely educated skin health experts trained to prescribe Dermalogica products and deliver Dermalogica professional skin treatments. They have the answers to your most pressing skin care concerns. They know how to deliver real, visible results. They're the best in the business, and have a real passion for taking care of your skin.
Your best-looking skin starts with healthy skin, and healthy skin starts with a Dermalogica skin therapist. Start living your healthiest skin!

The following post describes Omeka, a Web-based exhibition software application, and the how it was selected, installed on a local server, and is currently used at Johns Hopkins. Outside of Johns Hopkins these processes may serve as models. Alternatives to local hosting of Omeka are also outlined.
Omeka for Instruction
Years ago, our Dean, Winston Tabb, here in The Sheridan Libraries at Johns Hopkins University requested we perform a survey and evaluation of open source Web-based exhibition software, the kind of software that might be a useful adjunct to our brick-and-mortar exhibitions. This genre of software was, at the time, in a nascent stage. Nevertheless, our survey and evaluation included now-mature software applications such as: Collective Access; Omeka; Open Exhibits; and Pachyderm. Each package was downloaded, installed, configured, and evaluated with respect to ease of installation, overall functionality, and prospect of sustainability. In the end, Omeka was our exhibition software package of choice.
What is Omeka?
Omeka is a Web-based exhibition software package written by historians for historians. A product of the Center for History and New Media at George Mason University, Omeka was created so that those with exhibit-worthy content — most notably, historians — could click their way to a visually pleasing Web-based exhibition without the need to learn HTML, Javascript, or CSS coding. Omeka is more than just a Webpage with some images and text, though. It is a multi-user, Web-based tool that includes facility for user account management, for installing and configuring a host of freely-available plugins, for activating and altering themes, for adding and cataloging content items, and for taking those items and creating structured exhibitions with them.
Our Services
Shortly after settling on Omeka as our software package of choice, we decided to install it with two different uses in mind. First, we would install a central Omeka instance for use by the Exhibitions Committee of The Sheridan Libraries and University Museums. This instance would enable librarians and curators to use Omeka as either an online addition to a regular brick-and-mortar exhibition or as the venue for fully online exhibitions. As of this writing, this instance of Omeka was used in fall 2015 to host an online exhibition of materials related to the John Barth Exhibition held at the George Peabody Library. Also as of this writing, it is the intent of the Exhibitions Committee to likewise use Omeka to supplement a forthcoming exhibition on Edgar Allan Poe, again to be hosted at the Peabody Library.
The second use of Omeka would be in the classroom. For this, we set up a separate server and began offering each instructor interested in using Omeka his or her very own Omeka instance on a per course section basis. In this way, each section of each course using Omeka gets its own, dedicated instance, and students from each course section are sandboxed with their fellows, free and able to work together with this remarkable software package.
Typically the way this has worked is that a professor contacts technologist and librarian Mark Cyzyk in The Sheridan Libraries or staff in the Center for Educational Resources to request the use of Omeka. Cyzyk then sets up an instance, generates student accounts, and comes to class at least once during the semester to train the students. He sometimes is accompanied by a subject librarian or curator who addresses subject-specific topics such as where to find appropriate images/video/audio for use in exhibits, copyright and fair use issues, proper citation practice, etc.
Courses Using Omeka
Over the past five years, the following courses have used Omeka for instruction here at Johns Hopkins:
Spring 2012. "Literary Archive." AS.389.359 (01) Gabrielle Dean
Spring 2012. "Seeing Baltimore History: Race & Community." AS.362.306 (01) Moira Hinderer
Fall 2012. "Modernity on Display: Technology and Ideology in the Era of World War II." AS.140.320 (01) Robert Kargon
Spring 2013. "American Literature on Display." AS.389.360 (01) Gabrielle Dean
Spring 2014. "Gender in Latin American History." AS.100.232 (01) Norah Andrews
Spring 2014. "Guillaume de Machaut: Exploring Medieval Authorship in the Digital Age." AS.212.678 (01) Tamsyn Rose-Steel
Spring 2015. "Modernism in Baltimore: A Literary Archive." AS.389.359 (01) Gabrielle Dean
Spring 2015. "History of Modern Medicine." AS.140.106 (01) Jeremy Green
Spring 2016. "Art and Science in the Middle Ages." AS.010.403 (01) Chris Lakey
Spring 2016. "#Digital Blackness." AS.362.332 (01) Kim Gallon
Spring 2016. "The Virtual Museum." AS.389.302 (01) Jennifer Kingsley
Spring 2016. "History of Public Health in East Asia." AS.140.146 (01) Marta Hanson
Alternatives for Using Omeka
If you are not at Johns Hopkins, but are interested in using Omeka, you have two choices: First, you can get your local IT shop to install it. It is a PHP application that runs on the Apache Web server with the MySQL database on the backend, and it is fairly easy and straightforward to install and configure. Second, the Omeka community offers both paid and free hosting services via the omeka.net Website. The free plan includes a single site, 500 MB of server space, 15 plugins, and 5 themes: Plenty of functionality to get you started!
If you are at Johns Hopkins and are interested in using Omeka in one of your classes, please contact Mark Cyzyk, email@example.com, in The Sheridan Libraries.

Fires and Burn Scars in Southeast Australia. According to news reports, more than 70 bushfires were burning across New South Wales, Australia, as of January 10, 2003. Another 20 large fires were burning to the south in Victoria. These true- and false-color Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images from the Terra and Aqua satellites show the fires marked with red.
Initially, the heaviest concentration of fires was located in the Great Dividing Range Mountains in Kosciuszko National Park in southern New South Wales. Over subsequent weeks, the fires became most severe in northeast Victoria, to the south. Gusty winds and high temperatures hampered containment efforts, and the smoke created a significant health hazard.
Fires continued rage for weeks, burning hundreds of homes, destroying farms and livestock, and spreading smoke out across the ocean for thousands of kilometers. On Jan. 21, the smoke had reached eastward beyond New Zealand. Also Fires and Burn Scars in Southeast Australia are very common this time of year with the seasons changing. As well as temperatures rising and fires becoming spread through out the country.
In the false-color images, vegetation is bright green, burned area is reddish brown, clouds are white or robin's-egg blue, while smoke is deeper blue. As seen in the image the amazing color difference. The Fires and Burn Scars in Southeast Australia shown above with the smokey and dark green colors. Also around vegetation.

Dear Seeker of Psychic Powers,
Did you know that every human being,
without exception, as well as many animals are
naturally endowed with "God-given"
abilities including Psychic Powers, Clairvoyance, Telepathy, Mental Influencing and many more, yet most people are
completely unaware of this, believing instead that such
"supernatural powers" belong only to the gifted, privileged
nothing could be further from the truth.
can develop psychic powers and other supernatural abilities, all
you need is the key to unlock them for yourself –
anyone can do it and the Developing Psychic Powers books will
show you how.
The numerous testimonials we receive from people already
enjoying the benefits of Developing Psychic Powers after reading and following
the proven methods taught – methods anyone can learn.
I began the "Developing Psychic Powers" program
around four weeks ago. Doing the exercises as they are
taught in the course, I am beginning to notice an awareness, a
"knowingness" at times during my daily life. I "know"
when the telephone will ring, and who it will be. I
"know" where to go for a parking place. I just "know" that
store will have what I am looking
I could not find my car keys one morning, so
I just stopped, and I "knew" right where they were.
Trusting this new ability is what I have to work on right
now. My keys "could not" have been where they were.
I did not remember going into that room after I came
home. Yet I just trusted, went to the room, and there
they were, just as I had "felt" them.
I truly feel that this course, as it is presented,
is what has made such a major change in my perceptive
abilities. Thank You!
Patricia, Penn Valley, CA
Thousands of years ago our ancient ancestors routinely
used their own psychic abilities for survival.
The ancient cave people had no elaborate equipment which
we take for granted now. All they had were primitive weapons, their
strength and their natural powers upon which their survival
Our ancient ancestors might have seemed "primitive" in terms
of technology and other modern conveniences taken for granted today,
but they sure were not primitive when it came to making maximum use of
the psychic and other powers they knew they had and why they had them.
Before they embarked on a
hunting trip they would paint a picture of their quarry on the wall of
the cave, and by using trance techniques would reach out to their
intended prey, which was often many times their size, then by using
psychic attraction would cause the prey to be ready and waiting. They
always knew beyond doubt they would feed and they did feed –
which is why they were able to survive such harsh ice-age conditions,
with no real shelter or warmth, and in turn why we are here today.
our ancient ancestors not used their natural powers, which is all they
had or needed, to the greatest extent, they would likely not have
survived and neither therefore would the human race.
Even today there are cultures hidden away from "modern
civilisation" who still use their psychic powers of all types, including
telepathy in order
to survive quite happily.
one remote part of the world remote tribes communicate telepathically
just as modern humans use the telephone, sending advanced messages, new
and information purely by psychic means. To them this is natural, and
they would likely be shocked to discover that "modern humans"
do not use this ability or even realise it exists.
You might well even have heard of the "psychic leaders" of
many tribes – known as "shamans".
The truth is – Everyone
has the potential to develop Shamanic Powers – and even greater.
As humans have become more focused upon material things,
influenced by religion and have become more skeptical, these natural
psychic abilities have been forgotten over time – but not lost.
natural psychic abilities of most humans lie buried deep under layers of
materialism and indoctrination, hibernating, just waiting to be
rediscovered and brought to the fore once again.
As the saying goes "use it or lose it".
As with the loss of any facility, whether it be psychic, physical or
mental, once the realisation exists that
any natural ability can be
restored with the right knowledge, exercise and commitment, the
motivation to succeed takes over, and all you need then is the guidance
and commitment.
"Miracles", "Supernatural" or "Paranormal"
become possible and can later even normal.
this I decided to create a
complete course of books for developing all types of psychic powers, books that could
provide anyone with the opportunity to quickly and easily
develop a wide range of psychic powers and other supernatural abilities.
years later the final result was the highly acclaimed Developing Psychic Powers.
immediately the letters of thanks started to arrive.
Hi! I have looked in to this psychic power and
other paranormal things for over a year now, it's amazing what
the human mind is capable of.
I'm listening to a lot of radio shows on this subject several
days a week, it's interesting to hear what other people are
saying about this power of the human mind.
I have just begun reading your developing psychic powers
course, and so far it's been great, I hope everybody who
studies this course and power will use it for the benefit of
all life in the universe.
Thank you very much.
Erik Hirsimaki, gavleborgs lan.

You might well have seen "instructions" on gaining psychic
powers elsewhere on the Web, but be extremely aware that proven
information for developing genuine psychic powers are not easy to find.
Many of these sites are simply jumping
on to the multi-billion dollar "psychic industry" bandwagon,
without even having the knowledge or abilities to teach others.
The very last thing you want to do, as many have
experienced to their own cost and frustration in the past, is to spend
weeks following some erroneous "instructions" that lead to
nowhere except extreme frustration and a lot of wasted time and money
and disillusionment.
Note: it is
extremely important to know how and why each psychic ability
actually works. Simply following a set of instructions is
not enough. The Developing Psychic Powers course explains every
possible aspect of your psychic ability in an easily understandable and
followable form..
One of the secrets to success in Developing Psychic
Powers is the belief that they work.
Developing Psychic
Powers will leave you in no doubt that Psychic Powers are Very Real, and that
You Too
can easily re-gain them.
You have
vast psychic potential that can enable you to enjoy a wide
range of valuable abilities. It is so important to start on the
right foot, and not go down a road to nowhere.
If you do involve yourself with the wrong course of
instruction, and as a result fail to develop any sort of psychic
ability and become disillusioned as direct result, your disillusionment
will act as a great barrier to developing psychic powers in the future
due to a loss of belief and faith in the process.
Belief, faith and
knowing are crucial and Developing Psychic Powers provides
What really matters of course are real life results,
and Developing Psychic Powers has plenty of those as witnessed by the
numerous ongoing testimonials received.
This series of books has advanced my development
in the last few months beyond what I had gained in several
years. I, like many people, want to be the best I can be, to
realize my full potential.
For years I have tried to find real material to
guide me, never finding anything better than my own ideas and
concepts, until now. The Developing Psychic Powers books are
without comparison. No ridiculous philosophy to sort through to
find the meat of the subject. Your way of thinking is right on
the mark.
If anyone is looking for real material to guide
you towards your dreams, they have found the right place. All
that waits is your commitment to you.
S. Johnson, Lexington, Kentucky, USA
For successfully developing any psychic power or
other inner of metaphysical ability the truth is this:
You must have an
accurate, proven, complete course of instruction to be sure of
Developing Psychic Powers, as with any inner ability,
should be a very serious and extremely rewarding process, not something
that ends with disillusionment.
In the past, the real knowledge required to develop your
own genuine psychic powers, has only been known to a very few people
who have used it to their own powerful advantage.
Now finally all that has changed.
I have now created the Developing Psychic Powers course
just for you.
Plain and simple,
if you cannot develop your Psychic Powers with this, you never will

Psychic Powers course will help you to develop your own, natural,

without exception has latent psychic ability, including clairvoyant and
psychic medium abilities that can be realised and utilised to great
effect with the right training.
Our remote ancestors, especially those
living in places such as Egypt and other middle and far eastern
cultures, and long lost civilisations used, and sometimes abused their
own psychic powers.
Hundreds of thousands of years ago
ancient cave people used their psychic powers for survival. Their
legacy remains in the form of cave paintings that depict inner
experiences and even using their instinctive knowledge of their own
inner powers to attract food and other necessities.
Even today their are remote races,
still relatively untouched by "civilisation" who know, understand and
use psychic powers every day for numerous purposes in their daily
The good news is that these latent
psychic powers have not been lost over the ages, they are simply lying
dormant ready to be awakened and realised, by you.
There are those who know the secrets
and have developed their own psychic powers over the course of many
years, with abilities that might seem like science fiction to most
But yet there is nothing "special"
about these people. It is a fact that some are born with "psychic
gifts", but the truth is this:
absolutely anyone can
develop psychic powers and latent psychic abilities with the
right information, training and of course determination,
dedication and commitment.
To help you in realising your psychic
potential we are absolutely delighted to bring to you these proven
books that are absolutely guaranteed to change your life for the better
Once you have learned these psychic
powers for yourself you will never again feel the need to use
telephone live psychic hotlines. In fact you will see these for what
they really are, and know, beyond any doubt, that even the powers they
claim are nothing compared to what you can do for yourself.
In fact, once you have developed your
own genuine psychic abilities, you can even hold private sittings in
the comfort of your own home and charge whatever you feel appropriate.
Just to let you know what has happened since I
purchased Developing Psychic Powers.
I have learnt to quieten my mind and can do this now for up to
20 minutes, which is better than the 10 seconds when I
commenced the course. And something I have noticed since
performing the daily quiet time (giving myself 20 minutes of
uninterrupted nothing) things are easier somehow. I am a sales
rep and I have made budget every month since I started
performing the quiet time. It is as if the sales are drawn to
me, no longer a struggle.
I have had close calls with the police mobile radar patrols and
for some reason I have corrected my speed within minutes before
we pass each other on the highway. This alone was worth the
cost of the course.
Life is good and getting even better.

unexplainable. They explained to me a great many things have

No longer am I in the mindset of "don't tell

great-grandmother when I asked her as a child what was
happening to me. And upon reading them I've come to realize
that I have a few more talents unknown to me before.
Because of them, my life has taken on a whole new

still relatively untouched by "civilisation" who know, understand and
use clairvoyant powers every day for numerous purposes in their daily
There are also people living today
throughout the "modern" world with genuine clairvoyant powers, often
using them wisely for the benefit of themselves and others.
Such people do not generally include
Internet, telephone live psychic hotlines, who often claim the ability
of clairvoyance. People who enjoy true clairvoyant powers rarely flaunt
their abilities, or lurk on the end of a premium rate telephone line
waiting for someone to call for dollars per minute.
The power of the Mind and therefore
potential, latent clairvoyant powers of the Mind are quite literally
unlimited, waiting only to be fully realised by the right course
of training.

middle of the forehead that corresponds to the physical "pineal gland"
of the brain known as the "brow chakra" or more commonly the "third
So what exactly is
Clairvoyance means literally "clear
seeing", but this does not apply to the physical eyes viewing the
physical world. Clairvoyance, or "clear seeing" is actually the ability
to view the non-physical realms that exist beyond the physical world,
realms often known as "the Astral Planes" or the
Even today their are those who know the
secrets and have developed their own clairvoyant powers over the course
of many years, with abilities that might seem like science fiction to
most people.
But yet there is nothing "special"
about these people. It is true that some people were born with
"clairvoyant gifts", but the fact is absolutely anyone can develop
clairvoyant powers with the right information, training and of course
the appropriate determination, dedication and commitment.
The ancient, true and accurate
knowledge of how to develop clairvoyant powers has largely been lost
over the course of thousands of years—until now.

hotline. In fact you will see these for what they really are, and know,
beyond any doubt, that even the powers they claim are nothing compared
to what you can do for yourself.

My name is Ricardo
Booysens and I stay in Kraaifontein South Africa. Ive
been studying different religions for longer than 6 years and
what I didnt realize was that what I looked for was
inside of me the power was in my control. In the
beginning I didnt realize how to utilize it and the
course of developing your psychic powers has helped me
tremendously in my journey as a person but also in broadening
my horizons.
Maybe I should also state that I suffered from depression my
whole life and since I started with this course I realized the
one message that I can take with me the law of
attraction. Since I started practicing that, I worked myself
out of this gloom of self pity and I increased my success as a
business owner, family man and a perfect soul on earth.
Developing Psychic Powers is the one course that I know will
change my life. I am now telling people that If you want what
you always had keep on doing what youre doing at
the moment or choose to change your own reality and experience
real fulfilment now.

Hi everyone, Bryan here…
It's the most wonderful time of the year. No, it's not Christmas, but rather movie-lover Christmas, because the best film festival of all time – FANTASTIC FEST is up on us. We have the first wave of programming to get you all excited and up in arms about attending this year. If you love films more than life itself, then FANTASTIC FEST is the festival for you. It has everything you could possible want, including horror, sci-fi, action, foreign, documentary, and even adult movies. I'm looking at you X-Rated Supermarket. This year is looks incredible with some excellent films on the block right now. Below is the official press release.
Official Release: Fantastic Fest, Alamo Drafthouse's annual descent into chaos and carnage, returns for its thirteenth year, screaming "Yalla!" at full throttle. Loosely translated as "Let's go," this year's rally cry is informed by the Arabic theme that will permeate the festival as it once again delves deep into the corners of the world's best cinema.
"I'm proud to say that this is truly lucky thirteen for us," said Tim League, festival founder and Alamo Drafthouse CEO. "We have another ferocious slate celebrating new and returning filmmakers from all over the world. It's again an honor and privilege to welcome them and their brilliant, brave work."
Kicking off proceedings with this year's opening night film is Martin McDonagh in attendance to present the US premiere of his beautifully comic and delightfully dark tale of loss and redemption, THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI. S. Craig Zahler makes his triumphant return with the US premiere of 2018's most hyper-violent slice of brute force, BRAWL IN CELL BLOCK 99. Not to be outmuscled, Zahler's bringing backup in the form of the thunderous trifecta of Vince Vaughn, Don Johnson and Udo Kier. And Barry Keoghan marks his first Fantastic Fest, sharing Yorgos Lanthimos' savage horror epic THE KILLING OF A SACRED DEER for the first time in the US.
Embracing cinema spanning from Egypt to Lebanon to Iraq to Afghanistan, the festival turns an eye to celebrate the best of the region. Highlights include Egypt's rarely seen Rocky Horror Picture Show adaptation ANYAB and the International Premiere of the box office smash AL ASLEYEEN (aka THE ORIGINALS) directed by Marwan Hamed. "It's truly a joy to be able to showcase a variety of Arabic genre films never before seen in the US to shatter preconceptions." said Fantastic Fest Creative Director Evrim Ersoy. "Cinema from this region is as exciting, inventive and as wild as anything we've ever seen and we're here to prove it. It's going to be a wild ride! Yalla, Habibi!"
Fantastic Fest's global reach isn't relegated exclusively to Arabic nations, as it has once again scoured the corners of the globe to bring the best cinema to Austin, TX. Sweden is well represented with Ruben Ostlund's brilliantly sardonic THE SQUARE; Japan's master of malevolence, Takashi Miike, hits a bloody century with his 100th feature, BLADE OF THE IMMORTAL; Scotland flies its flesh-eating flag with John McPhail's zombie musical, ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE; and Austrian Oscar winner Stefan Ruzowitsky delivers a brutal and relentless ride with COLD HELL.
Maine's finest son, Stephen King, is gorgeously represented with two standouts from Netflix's burgeoning genre slate. GERALD'S GAME receives its US premiere along with the welcome return of Fantastic Fest alumni Mike Flanagan, who delivers a chilling adaptation of one of King's most beloved bedside tales starring Carla Gugino and Bruce Greenwood. And Fantastic Fest first-timer Zak Hilditch will be in attendance to share his perfectly precise vision of King's uber-creepy novella, 1922, for its world premiere.
Sticking with the theme of world premieres, this year's program features a selective set of titles from first-time feature filmmakers whose wildly impressive debuts belie the depth of their filmographies. Spanish short master Yayo Herrero excels with his fantasy horror, MAUS; Bradley Buecker explores wasted youth and packs a visceral punch from the wrong side of the tracks with JUVENILE; and Lukas Feigelfeld shocks with his atmospheric exploration of a medieval hell in HAGAZUSSA – A HEATHEN'S CURSE.
Fantastic Fest alumni are well represented this year as DAN DREAM reunites KLOWN's dynamic duo of Casper Christensen and Frank Hvam for an electric road trip back to the '80s; GENERATION B sees WASTE LAND director Pieter Van Hees return with a mad comedy; and RON GOOSSENS: LOW-BUDGET STUNTMAN delivers the warm embrace of directors Steffen Haars and Flip van der Kuil, whose previous NEW KIDS features and BROs BEFORE HOs crushed at previous editions of Fantastic Fest.
For those unable to make the pilgrimage to Austin this September, there's still reason to rejoice as we'll be realizing a long-brewing strategy of bringing Fantastic Fest and its finely curated programming to three Alamo Drafthouse flagship theaters over the weekend of September 29th. Fans of the best in genre films in San Francisco, Brooklyn and Denver will all feature an exclusive slate of Fantastic Fest titles. Tickets and badges are scheduled to go on sale in the coming weeks.

Moore, Peter Weddick
24 June 1859–15 Apr. 1934
See also: Elizabeth City State University (from Encyclopedia of North Carolina)
Peter Weddick Moore, educator, was born near Faison in Duplin County, the son of Weddick and Alecy Thompson Moore, both enslaved people. His father allegedly was killed by the Ku Klux Klan during Reconstruction, and the task of rearing the five children fell to his mother. Although uneducated, she strongly believed in schooling, and she was deeply religious; it is likely that Moore received from her the perseverance and ideals that characterized his personal and professional life.
It is believed that he attended a school established in the neighborhood by the Freedmen's Bureau. He then studied at the Philosophian Academy, in nearby Sampson County, conducted by Burke Marable, under whose guidance Moore developed independence and ambition. The young man devoted himself to study with great purpose. At age twenty he was certified to teach in a one-room school near Clinton. He supplemented his earnings by raising cotton as a tenant, and with the money he saved he enrolled in Shaw University in Raleigh in the fall of 1880. President H. M. Tupper recognized Moore's ability as well as his need for support and in 1882 appointed him a student instructor. Moore also worked in a brickyard on campus and in a nearby foundry.
A classmate noted that Moore was "well informed on all current events" and that science and mathematics were his favorite subjects. He received an A.B. degree in 1887; later Shaw awarded him both M.A. and LL.D. degrees in recognition of his contributions to education in the state.
After leaving Shaw, Moore taught for about a year in Bertie County and then was named assistant principal of the State Normal School in Plymouth, where he remained for four years. In 1891, on the recommendation of Major S. M. Finger, state superintendent of public instruction, Moore was made principal of the new State Normal School for the Colored Race (now Elizabeth City State University). Here he remained for the rest of his life.
The General Assembly had appropriated nine hundred dollars for the school but made no provisions for either a building or a site. With the aid of the citizens of Elizabeth City and the board of trustees (whose members were all white), Moore and his assistant, J. H. Turner, soon obtained the Rooks Turner Building on Body Road Street and the school opened on 4 January 1892 with sixty pupils. With enrollment increasing each year, the school moved to a larger facility in 1894 and then to its present site in 1912.
Moore was concerned not only with the academic training of his students but also with their spiritual and moral well-being. In addition to intensive and thorough training in subject matter, he stressed "the excellence and dignity of right living." He insisted on upright conduct and always conducted himself in such a manner that his students might learn from his example. As soon as funds were available he added an industrial program, believing that "[t]rained cooks and educated farmers are needed as well as professionally trained teachers." Moreover, some work with the hands, as well as academic exercises, became a required part of the daily routine. He wrote that "industrial education not only increases learning capacity, but promotes fidelity, accuracy, honesty, persistency and intelligence. The capacity to make a living becomes enlarged into the capacity to make a life." He made every effort to provide training that would "help to avoid that which is superficial and furnish in its stead those fundamental qualities that make character."
In addition to his administrative duties, Moore did much of the teaching, supervised the practice school, and handled all disciplinary problems. Around 1921 his health began to fail, and the position of dean was created; John H. Bias was then hired to relieve him of more minor duties. After a few years, however, Moore's health declined further, and it became evident that he could not carry out the responsibilities of his office much longer. At the commencement exercises of 25 May 1928, he was named president emeritus and granted a salary and a well-furnished house for life. After his retirement, at his insistence, he continued to teach courses in classroom management.
For many years Moore conducted the Teachers' Institute in eastern North Carolina and served as president of the North Carolina Negro Teachers' Association, of which he was a charter member. Twice the governor of North Carolina appointed him to represent the state at the National Educational Congress. In 1922 he was also requested to attend an interracial conference in Atlanta.
Indicative of Moore's perception and understanding was his reaction to the political campaign of 1900 for the adoption of an amendment to the state constitution, the effect of which would be to disfranchise Black citizens. "[T]his disfranchising amendment . . . will be a blessing in disguise," he stated. "It will mean the enfranchisement of the literate members of my race. Many of us are trammeled and we cannot exercise that political freedom which is so essential to the uplifting of any people. Hugging the delusion incident to emancipation, my race is all too gregarious . . . Our leaders are now subjected to the hectoring of the illiterate of our race . . . I entertain an abiding confidence that this disfranchising amendment will bring forth an educational awakening, the like of which has never been witnessed in North Carolina [which will] prepare all men, irrespective of race, to exercise the rights of suffrage intelligently . . . upon political principles [and not] be actuated by partisan prejudice."
One observer noted that Moore's greatest work was "the cementing of the ties between the white and . . . colored [races]." Moore himself noted that he had made it a rule of his life never to permit himself to do anything offensive to any person. After his death, the mayor of Elizabeth City attributed to him the absence of racial strife in the city. Another observer wrote that Moore "rose from slavery to a position as educator and statesman, and dedicated his life to the service of both races." To the many people who knew him, it was said, he would always be remembered by his admonition to "be somebody."
In 1889 Moore married Symera T. Raynor of Windsor, and they became the parents of two daughters: Ruth Lawrence and Bessie V. He was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery, Elizabeth City.

Southbound barges on the Mississippi River carry grain destined for world markets.
Those barges regularly pass northbound tows with thousands of tons of fertilizer heading to Midwestern ports and, later, to farmers' fields.
But this year's drought is adding an element of uncertainty to those shipping patterns, as Mississippi River levels reach record lows. Water levels have fertilizer shippers scrambling to get their product to market before low water dries up their most important shipping route.
Midwest Agri-Chemico and its owner Russ Mothershead are caught up in the frenzy.
At a Mississippi River port near Cape Girardeau, Mo., on a recent day, Mothershead watched a backhoe scoop bucket after bucket of fertilizer from a barge, dumping the dry white crystals into a semi-truck. As soon as one truck left, another took its place.
"With the spring planting season coming on, the big demand usually starts around early February," Mothershead said. "So whatever products we can get in and get in physical hands of the end users, at least it will be available until we see what happens over the next six, eight weeks."
Tall, silver-haired, and no-nonsense, Mothershead is built like a basketball player. He has been working overtime bringing in extra shipments of fertilizer.
About half the country's fertilizer comes from domestic plants, many of them near natural gas sources in the Gulf south. The other half comes from overseas and much of it enters the country at New Orleans.
"Canada, Russia, Israel, Egypt. The Middle East supplies a lot of our nitrogen products in the past due to the cheaper gas available to make nitrogen," Mothershead said.
Once fertilizer leaves ports, it heads to people like Joe Kilgus. He's the director of plant food sales for Growmark, an ag supply cooperative based in Bloomington, Ill., that sells 3 million tons of fertilizer annually. His company has been dealing with the low-river-level situation since the summer by stocking up.
"We know the demand is there," Kilgus said. "It's just, typically, we probably would have waited a little bit longer to bring in some of the supply to be a little more sure of actual demand, where this year, it was, yeah, let's go ahead and err on the safe side and get it up there."
Fertilizer is big money. It's a $15-18 billion industry and the Mississippi River provides the cheapest way to get it where it needs to go. One barge hauls 1,500 tons of fertilizer and each towboat, during normal river conditions, averages 15 barges. That is a lot of fertilizer.
Kathy Mathers, vice president of the Fertilizer Institute, says if fertilizer retailers are unable to transport shipments up the Mississippi, they'll be in a real bind. Physically, there are options, like trucks or trains. But really at the end of the day, those options don't work out.
"Trucks are a possibility, though a much more expensive possibility, and the farmer would really feel that in his or her pocketbook," Mathers said.
Mathers calls rail a non-option because there aren't enough rail cars available to pick up the slack. And then there's the cost: It's about $10 to transport a ton of fertilizer on a barge, compared to $25 on rail and $50 on a truck.
Chad Hart, an economics professor and grain market specialist at Iowa State University, says fertilizer prices haven't responded to this yet, but he expects they will.
"Last time we really had problems like this would have been (Hurricane) Katrina," Hart said. "When you look at how Katrina gummed up the system, we saw increases on the fertilizer side of $100-200 a ton. So it was something that producers definitely felt."
The barge and fertilizer industries want the Army Corps of Engineers to release water from Missouri River reservoirs to help keep tows afloat on the Mississippi. For a variety of reasons, the Corps won't do that. But they are moving forward with plans to blow up dangerous rock outcrops in southern Illinois that could snare barges. By their own admission, the Corps has little capacity to improve the situation.
If the drought continues into next year, that could leave farmers, and the folks that ship their products, high and dry.

Statement by Ministers Fast and Ritz on U.S. Country of Origin Labelling
June 7, 2013 - The Honourable Ed Fast, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway, and the Honourable Gerry Ritz, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board, today issued the following statement on U.S. Country of Origin Labelling (COOL):
"Despite consistent rulings by the World Trade Organization, the U.S. government continues its unfair trade practices, which are severely damaging to Canadian industry and jobs.
"Our government is extremely disappointed that the United States continues to uphold this protectionist policy, which the WTO has ruled to be unfair, and we call on the United States to abide by the WTO ruling.
"We are preparing to launch the next phase of the WTO dispute settlement process on the new U.S. rule, which we had hoped to avoid by the United States living up to its trade obligations.
"The Canadian government, with the full support and active engagement of Canadian industry, has fought against this unfair treatment, which is also hurting U.S. industry and consumers.
"When the United States failed to comply by the May 23 deadline, we said we would pursue all options available. Today, we are also releasing a list of U.S. commodities for possible retaliation, to be published as soon as possible in the Canada Gazette, as a way to formally launch the consultation process.
"Our government will continue to consult with stakeholders as we pursue a fair resolution of this issue through the WTO over the next 18 to 24 months. To respect Canada's WTO obligations, our government will not act on these retaliatory measures until the WTO authorizes us to do so."
