New glasses from some Japanese brand I can't pronounce nor spell; Striped top, Cotton On; Hot pink cropped pants and brown leather bag; both Zara; bag tag courtesy of Tod's & flats by Meher Kakalia.
I got my mother to snap a photo of me before I left for meetings this afternoon. This, unfortunately, will not happen too often because I can only get my mother to photograph me when I'm not wearing anything that's short, tight or low-cut which happens very occasionally. In addition, while my mother is brilliant at a lot of things, she's not the best photographer. She took this photo while I was in between blinks and about to laugh at her trying to photograph me.
I'm wearing my new prescription glasses that are awesome! My eye doctor told me I needed glasses, and the the thing is, it's only my left eye that's funky. Is that weird?
You can call me
Lisa Faz "Left Eye" Lopez, now, thanks.
I popped by the Doorstep Luxury office this afternoon and I'm absolutely in lust with neon pink Diane De Marla bag, and this Blue Braided Marble Choker by Tuleste Market. This, coming from a woman who never wears necklaces, is quite the compliment. The choker is unreal!
Watch this space for more photos from my visit to their office!

Robert McGinnis does his usual flawless work on this cover for Erle Stanley Gardner's The Case of the Bigamous Spouse. Many summaries of this online, but briefly, it's about a door-to-door saleswoman who is implicated in the murder of her best friend's new husband, who was married to two women. Rest assured, Perry Mason sorts it all out as perfectly as McGinnis sorted out this cover.

Above, a Universal International Pictures promo shot of American actress Kathleen Hughes, who starred one of our favorite hilariously awful films, It Came from Outer Space, and another movie that sounds terrible but which we haven't seen yet, Cult of the Cobra. She also acted in television extensively and appeared on Perry Mason, Gomer Pyle, I Dream of Jeannie and Mission: Impossible. This image dates from 1953.

In color therapy pink symbolizes unconditional love, and you wear it when you want someone to be instantly drawn to you. Well, that stuff must work, because we're instantly drawn to these covers by Robert McGinnis for Erle Stanley Gardner's Perry Mason series, circa early 1960s. We were thinking about changing our website a bit, but now that we know this about the color pink, forget it. Our traffic might drop to nothing.

You may be asking yourself whether this book is really about what the cover seems to imply. Yes, Erle Stanley Gardner's fictional attorney Perry Mason does indeed encounter a talking parrot that saw a murder. The Case of the Perjured Parrot was published in 1939, so we're pretty sure Gardner was the first writer to conceive of such an outrageous plot device. He has plenty of fun with the idea, and his bird is full of surprises. Or birds, we should say, since there turns out to be more than one. In the end, Perry Mason learns that a parrot can be as difficult a witness as a human. Excellent cover art is by unknown.

Erle Stanley Gardner's The Case of The Sulky Girl is one of those books that was reissued many times through the years with different covers, all quite nice. This isn't an exceedingly rare occurrence, but the quality of the art in this case is notable. Below, we have seven examples starting with the original paperback cover from 1933, followed by excellent efforts from Muni (panel three), Dawson (panel four), Peffer (panel five), McGinnis (panel seven) and unknowns.

Home of Golf Awaits after Coronation Foursomes Area Final10, August 2018
Four Scottish golfers are looking forward to the dream chance of teeing up at the 'Home of Golf' in the final of one of the largest domestic golf participation events.
The team duo of Angela Joss and Hannah Bycroft, along with Libby Pow and Jan Allan, successfully qualified for the final of the 2018 Coronation Foursomes in St Andrews after coming through Area Finals at Aboyne and Hamilton respectively.
At Aboyne, Joss and Bycroft from Alford GC came out on top with 39 points. Alison Christie and Mary McGregor (Torphins GC) took second spot on 38 points, with the pairing of Liz Clark and Chris Cowie (Peterculter) third on 37 points.
Meantime, at Hamilton, Pow and Allan from Ralston GC finished runner-up in the Area event, but with the winning duo of Jackie MacFadyen and Jacqui Golding (Linlithgow GC) unavailable to compete in the final, the Paisley pair will take their place.
The third-placed team at Hamilton were Valerie MacKinnon and Muriel Young from Old Ranfurly GC. At both Area Finals, the second and third-placed teams received vouchers for their efforts.
Joss, Bycroft, Pow and Allan will now be among the 32 finalists who will tee up at the Eden Course at the 'Home of Golf' in St Andrews on Monday 24 September. They will also stay at the prestigious Old Course Hotel Golf Resort & Spa and have the chance to book a place in the Pro-Am for the 2019 Women's British Open.
Women and girls from golf clubs across Great Britain and Ireland have been competing among thousands of golfers to celebrate the 65th anniversary of the iconic event.
As part of The R&A's continuing drive to encourage more women and girls into playing golf, the event celebrates the camaraderie, companionship and friendly competition that women and girls have enjoyed over the last 64 years.
Local competitions were organised by golf clubs in Great Britain and Ireland to give golfers the opportunity to reach the Grand Final.
The best 100 scores based on nett differential then qualified for the Area Finals, held at 16 venues around Great Britain and Ireland in July and August, before the top 16 teams book their trip to St Andrews (including travel and awards dinner) for the finale.
Established in 1953 to celebrate the Queen's Coronation, the team event is open to all members of affiliated golf clubs in Great Britain and Ireland who hold a current CONGU handicap of 36 or under.
Over 25,000 competitors from 1,200 clubs took part last year with more encouraged to tee it up in 2018 for the chance to etch their names in the Coronation Foursomes roll of honour.
It was Siobhan Behan and Lorraine Walsh from Killeen in Ireland who went on to take the title in 2017, amassing 41 points in the handicap stableford foursomes format to finish one point ahead of Hayston duo, Susan Thom and Joyce Woollon from Scotland.
The Eden Course is one of seven courses at St Andrews Links. Opened in 1914, the Eden Course was designed by Harry S Colt and is named after the Eden estuary.

The 9th Dimensional Arcturian Council ~ The Realm of Infinite Possibilities
"Greetings. We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.
Basing your beliefs upon what has already been keeps you stuck in a sort of time loop. Breaking free from your beliefs about what has been and how you got to where you are will break you free from the loop and from time itself. We want to encourage you to move beyond time and to move beyond your minds, and therefore, beyond beliefs, which are formulated by your minds based upon something you call 'the past.'
Instead we invite you to a realm of infinite possibilities, the realm of the now moment, the realm of your true self. You can, and you often do, break free from your beliefs, and it is always at those times when you are lost in the moment.
So the easiest way for you to break free from all of these limitations is to get fully engaged in something you enjoy. Moving towards that which you love is the ultimate in freedom, freedom from the constructs that you have been basing your reality upon and free from the programming that keeps you locked in a loop.
We want to see you break free because your relief is our relief. Your ascension is our ascension. We are tied to you energetically, and we are happy to be part of your evolutionary experience. As we give you something simple like this to work with, we can see you lighting up and recognizing how you can apply these principles.
We see you in your hearts, even though a message like this also appeals to your minds. As we invite you to this realm of infinite possibilities, you become closer to us, and we enjoy that feeling of connection as well.
We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you."

Editor's note: Financial institutions must make the new account opening process quick and convenient, or risk high customer abandonment rates.
The importance of first impressions can't be overstated, and this rings especially true when it comes to consumers' first interaction with their potential bank or credit union. Technology has dramatically raised service standards and expectations, and as a result, banks and credit unions must enhance their digital strategy when it comes to attracting new customers and opening their accounts.
In the critical new account opening stage of a banking relationship, speed and convenience are imperative. Consumers' patience has shortened significantly, and their perception of a long wait has shortened. Processes that are overly complex or confusing will cause them to abandon whatever they are trying to accomplish, creating a significant challenge for banks and credit unions who are tasked with meeting security and regulatory demands which often causes some friction for consumers.
While customers understand the importance of financial safety measures, they are no longer judging the quality of their interaction with their bank or credit union based on what might be available at another institution. The baseline for comparison is made up of companies such as Venmo, Airbnb and Uber.
The onboarding of customers and members is where this type of comparison can be particularly frustrating for all involved. Nonetheless, to meet consumer expectations, banks and credit unions should limit the digital onboarding process to less than five minutes. Financial institutions can accomplish this by reducing data entry through tools such as photo ID capture. Financial institutions have the opportunity to use their own data as well as information from third parties to assess the risk of new customers while still leveraging technologies that can make the account opening process easier and quicker than it has been in the past. A convenient, intuitive process, bolstered by data analytics and coupled with clear instructions and FI follow-up, has become table stakes in this area.
In addition to offering a quick, convenient experience, banks and credit unions should also strive to facilitate the new account opening process through customers' and members' preferred channels. It's no secret that smartphones are typically the channel of choice for younger generations to engage with their service providers. In fact, according to a survey conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of D3 Banking, 70% of Millennials say that it is at least somewhat important that their bank or credit union offer a mobile account opening process.
Despite this preference for mobile account opening, 52% of FIs don't allow customer to fully open accounts digitally, according to the Digital Banking Report. This is simply unacceptable from a customer and member experience standpoint, and has the potential to create a significant abandonment rate. It will be critical to banks' and credit unions' success to allow customers and members to complete the new account opening process entirely online, especially via mobile.
FIs that are able to successfully harmonize and streamline the new account opening process will benefit from reduced abandonment rates. According to a 2018 survey by Jumio and Javelin Strategy & Research, these are the top five reasons Millennials abandon mobile banking:
- 38% Process too long
- 27% Forgot password
- 22% Authentication too long
- 19% Process too complicated
- 18% Difficult filling out forms on device
Savvy financial institutions that recognize the need to enhance the new account opening process are increasingly partnering with a digital banking provider that offers an adaptive platform. An advanced, modern digital banking platform can enable banks and credit unions to facilitate the intuitive, frictionless experience customers and members expect online and on their smartphones, backed by the necessary security and compliance requirements.
In an era where consumer patience is thinner than ever before, banks and credit unions must ensure the initial experience with potential customers and members is a strong one. By making the new account opening process quick, convenient and available via their customers' preferred channels, financial institutions can reduce abandonment rates and strengthen customer and member relationships.

After nearly 8 long years of listening to Congressman Steve Daines, and now Senator Steve Daines, scream "repeal and replace" across our TV sets he's settled on just the repeal effort.
Yesterday, MTN's Mike Dennison reported that Senator Daines (and Commissioner Rosendale) have decided that ripping away coverage for 22 million Americans wasn't enough, and they need to see 32 million Americans lose coverage.
On it's face this seems to be your usual run-of-the-mill GOP talking point/attempt at public policy: take from the poor to enrich the wealthy.
But earlier this week Senator Daines rode in on his white horse and took credit for funding Community Health Centers across Montana.
From the Montana Standard:
Daines said Montana's Community Health Centers provide reliable access to affordable health care close to home.
"I'm pleased that Montanans … will continue to have the health services they rely on," he said.
I don't disagree with Senator Daines. It is great that Montanans will continue to have the health services they rely on.
But less than 7 days after claiming credit for this money, Senator Daines wants to take away the source of this money.
The much maligned ACA created a Community Health Center fund. This money trickles down to the states in the form of the grants that Daines claimed credit for.
If Senator Daines gets his way next week, and the ACA is repealed, the CHC's across Montana will not get this vital funding. It will be harder for them to balance their books. It will be harder for them to keep the lights on. It will be harder for the Montanans who use CHC's for care to receive treatment.
The result will be the antithesis of Senator Daines' quote: He will be pleased that Montanans will no longer have access to the health services they rely on.
All for the fulfillment of a campaign promise.
Senator Daines can't have it both ways. Either the funds from the ACA are good and allow for Montanans to have access to the care they need. Or the whole bill needs to go.
This week he championed money from the ACA. Next week, he will vote to repeal the bill and get rid of that money and the coverage for 32 million Americans.
If you look up hypocrite in the dictionary, you'll find a smiling picture of Senator Daines.

Really like the simplicity of this and the use of the serif font.
What i think i like about this the most is the layout. How the
layout falls around the side of the packaging in a really interesting way.
I really like how the type is spread along the side
of the packaging, its broken up but still legible.
Really love the use of the type here, its looks like
its raining down the side of the packaging. Its just an
interesting way to use type and layout.
Really love this fold over box and how the type
is used across the whole of the net. I also
like how its wrapped around the packaging, this is something
I am defiantly interested in trying out
Really like the thin stoked type here,
the light type contrasts really well against the
background. It also creates its own pattern.

Gears 5 Status
For bug reports, common questions and official support, please visit Support.GearsofWar.com.
Known Issues
Online Stability
Status: Work Ongoing
We are consistently working on server-side updates to improve online stability as fast as we can. Our services are stable, but a couple of issues remain that we are currently investigating:
- Being dropped from Horde matches
- Session instability for Campaign Co-Op
Deployed fixes:
- Decreased number of disconnects from online matches
- Dramatically improved time to match
- Addressed infinite loading into Campaign in Single Player
- General stability improvements
Progression Issue
Status: Resolved – Progression Rollout Underway
We have now resolved this issue and a rollout of saved stats during the period where Progression was not being awarded is underway. This process will take numerous hours, and we will update this page when the rollout is complete.
Additionally, we have work in progress to address the Collectibles, Chapter Progress and related achievements.
This covers Tour of Duty, the End of Match flow, Character Levels, Level / XP and Campaign profession.
Stats Issue
Status: Resolved
We have deployed a fix for Stats and are now seeing them perform as expected.
Related issues:
- Unable to select Modifers, including Modifiers disappearing in menus
- Campaign collectibles registering as collected in-game but not appearing in the Collectibles Menu
- End of match stat errors
- Stats displaying as 0 in the War Journal
- Leaderboards not loading
Service Notifications
Update: 5:45pm PT
We have been gathering reports from some players missing collectibles and chapter progression, including related achievement progress. We have a plan to target resolving this and work is underway. We'll keep you apprised of any updates.
Update: 12:45pm PT
Services remains stable, though we continue to address disconnects for Campaign and Horde. The Progression catch-up roll-out is mostly complete. Tour and Character Skills are most affected by this. We'll post when it's finished
September 8th
Update: 10:10pm PT
The progression and stats issue is now resolved. Over the next few hours, your Tour of Duty, XP, rank, Character levels, and end of match flow should slowly return to their correct state. We will update when this backlog has been completed.
Update: 8:10pm PT
We have fixed an issue causing infinite saving checkpoints. We no longer are seeing this problem; however, if you are experiencing this, we want to hear from you. We're still working on Progression. At this time, Progression is saved but very delayed.
Progression covers Tour of Duty, XP, Levels, Character Levels, End of Match Flow and more.
Update: 3:00pm PT
Due to the large number of people playing our game since Early Access launch, we've encountered a few scalability issues with our back-end servers and services that have impacted players.
Specifically for players experiencing issues with Campaign, the majority of reported issues seem to be related to the 'infinite checkpoint saving' state – which is apparent when the Checkpoint Saving notification in the bottom left runs for more than 20 seconds.
If you encounter this issue, please quit to main menu immediately. At that point, re-enter the Campaign and continue to play. This should prevent loss of progression (other than your last checkpoint save) and avoid many of the resultant issues this can cause.
Thank you so much for your patience. The team at The Coalition is actively working to improve overall game stability as quickly as possible. To stay up to date on the latest information, please visit Gears5.com/Status.
Update: 12:30pm PT
We are rolling out a deployment over the next 30m.
During this time, you may experience an increased amount of disconnects, but the end result will be a general increase to stability. Thanks for your understanding and patience.
Update: 8:45am PT
We are deploying a server side update to help reduce the number of disconnects in online play. While this happens, you may be kicked out of a MP game as the update is released
September 7th
Update: 9:00pm PT
We're happy to say the recent update has fixed issues with stats, achievements and post-match. However, it will take time for the services to catch up to the volume of stats posted since launch. As always, thanks for your patience.
Update: 7:30pm PT
We have identified a second issue with the stats service. All stats have been recorded, but players have issues retrieving them. We are close to a fix, and apologize for any service disruption. We will post an update as soon as we deploy.
Update: 12:45pm PT
We have addressed an issue that was a significant contributor to players dropping from online Campaign co-op sessions. If you were encountering issues connecting or maintaining a connection in Campaign Co-Op, please try again now.
Update: 10:30am PT
Stats are now functioning as intended. You can review your campaign collectibles and MP stats in the quick menu. Note: As the system processes the backlog, it may take a while for stats and achievements to update.
Update: 8:00am PT
Good morning! The team has analyzed the 'gathering results' data and feel they have identified the stats problem. An update is being deployed that should resolve the issue. Please visit http://support.gearsofwar.com for help and to report issues.
September 6th
Update: 11:05pm PT
We have deployed an update that has meaningfully reduced instances of players being dropped from online matches. We will continue to monitor the situation over the coming hours.
Update: 8:00pm PT

We have identified the issue and are working to deploy a fix as soon as possible.
Update: 2:20pm PT
The team have been heads down implementing several server-side updates over the past few hours.
We have seen a decline in the number of disconnects occurring, and as we continue to work on additional updates. Stand by for further news soon.
Update: 9:50am PT
We are deploying an update to improve matchmaking times and lobby dissolves. Players may be kicked out of matches during this rollout.
Thanks for your patience. We will continue to monitor and provide details.
Update: 8:00am PT
We are seeing reports from a small percentage of users that are experiencing difficulty matchmaking and/or getting disconnected from online services. We are actively investigating the issue and are working hard to get all users connected ASAP.
Update: 1:25am PT
Following our latest deployment, we are seeing a dramatic improvement to service stability. The team will now be monitoring the impact of this change to determine if additional updates are needed. Thank you for your patience.
September 5th
Update: 12:30 am PT
Over the next 15 minutes, we are deploying a server side update that will enable a portion of users back online to play. While this happens, you may be kicked out of multiplayer games as the update is released. Thanks for your patience.
Update: 11:55pm PT
Our team is working hard on fixes for several issues blocking some users from connecting online (inc. Campaign). You'll see this as 'Connecting' in the bottom right of the main menu. We'll provide updates as we progress towards a solution.

We are working to mitigate this asap and get you playing. Thanks for your patience.

Medication – Hoi An Travel Guide to Money Saving
When we first came to Vietnam one of the biggest surprises we got was how cheap medication was. Back home in Australia, people told us how they paid huge amounts for 'subsidy listed' medication. Here – without the subsidy – the same brand of medication costs a quarter of the price. It is not fake medication, it is the real product that you buy in your own country. We don't understand so – go figure!
Below, we have listed a Hoi An Pharmacy that comes recommended by expats. However, if you cannot find what you are looking for, we highly recommend Phuoc Thien in Danang. Opposite the Big C, it is the 'go to chemist' for many Westerners. You'll be surprised what they stock.
Note: Prices for medication are usually higher in Hoi An than in Da Nang; pharmacies nearer the hospitals are more likely to stock 'hard to find' drugs
Approximate price Guide in VND & US dollars for 1 MONTH'S supply of medication in Vietnam for …
High blood pressure (perindopril arginine/amlodipine) = 204,000VND ($US 9.27)
High cholesterol (Fenofibrate) = 100,000VND ($US 4.54)
Parkinsons (Madopar) = 150,000VND ($US 6.80)
HRT (Tibalone) = 420,000VND ($US 19)
Shingles = (Neuran) = 260,000VND ($US11.80)

for Visual Music Artists, Writers, and Venues
Pavana glosada (v. 2) from Jean Detheux on Vimeo.
This is the second version of this piece, with music magnificently interpreted by Paola Erdas (http://www.paolaerdas.it/).
First version is here: https://vimeo.com/22810432
Here's an album of movies done in collaboration with Paola: https://vimeo.com/album/2985377
Attempting to make visible what Paola's playing evokes in me, navigating that sensitive and elusive space between being "too close to" and "too far from" the music is very demanding. If Norman McLaren said that "animation is what happens between the frames," Visual Music is likely what happens between the music and the images, and that dialogue is often overwhelmed either by the music, or the images...
Paola and I are preparing for a live images - music concert, a concert that will take place in Trieste on December 12, 2018.
In order to be fully ready for that momentous event (we've been collaborating for over 10 years, but this will be our first meeting in person and of course, our first live concert, Paola lives in Trieste, Italy, I in Montréal, Québec), I need a recent laptop (a MacBook Pro), new or used, capable of sustaining the demands of my generating and mixing images sequences in real time. If I have the proper tools for working in my studio (or in venues which are within driving distances), I do not have proper equipment that could travel with me by plane, nor the means to acquire it on my own.
I am therefore conducting a fundraiser, between October 10 and November 10, 2018, I hope to be able to raise enough money to at least buy the hardware needed t make the most of that concert.
Here's where you can read more about the fundraiser, and hopefully contribute to it (no donation is too small or too big): https://theeyelistens.net
Thank you (merci, le texte est disponible ne français également)
The music, "Pavana glosada," is by António de Cabezón.
Available on Paola Erdas' CD "CABEZÓN, LA TECLA DE L'ALMA" (ARCANA A 357)
Festival ready (digital file, .mov h.264)
Please consider supporting my work (VERY MUCH in need of support these days). You can make donations via PayPal, starting from here : http://www.vudici.net/movies/morphing.html#new123108 (this type of work receives very little help, if any, from the usual channels).
Thank you

Jake Austin's Baptism
Gena Martin, wedding planner and owner of Platinum Party Planning, put her party planning skills to use when coordinating the gathering of friends and family to witness the baptism of her son Austin. Patrick and Gena had family from all over the U.S. come and support them!
Renee Landry Style made these beautiful and simple flower arrangements for the service.
Rev. Scott Finnicum preformed the ceremony at the gorgeous Mt. Zion Methodist Church in Grandy. The stained glass windows are phenomenal!!
Little Jake Austin was a bit of a ham during the ceremony. I have quite a few pictures with his tongue out!
Such a beautiful family moment!
I love this photo of Austin's godmother, grandparents and great grandmother all looking on with so much love and emotion!
Congratulations Martin family!

In today's edition of #FridayFaves I share 4 of my favorite apps. Each present an opportunity to connect with me and a community of real, raw, faith-filled warrior women....AND there's some exciting news @ the end!
Click on any pic to download!
YouVersion Bible App
The YouVersion Bible App is my favorite bible supplement. It's just incredible that you get to carry the entire 66 books of the bible in countless versions with hundreds of devotional studies right in your pocket! And to think, persecution and martyrdom still exist in other parts of the world. What a privilege we have! I wrote more on how I use this incredible app in "Is it a PRAYER Problem or a PRAISE Problem?!" and would love the chance to connect with you there! Look me up, and let's be friends!
Because who DOESN'T love Instagram, right?! I have "met" some incredible people on Instagram. My friend, Lauriel started following me a few years ago and would like and comment on my pics...then we began a conversation. And before you knew it, we were on the phone and FaceTime with eachother regularly praying, petitioning, and supporting each other during a very rough time in both of our lives!
Or my friend in Australia who came upon my IG over a year ago simply by looking up #Jesus and reached out and has become an amazing encourager, coach, and friend!
Find me on IG @heatherferroni
Anyone else struggle with regular exercise?! I do! I admit I just don't prioritize it and fit it in to my VERY full calendar...But because I work mostly from home and get antsy pantsy sitting in front of a computer sending emails, engaging in video conferences and taking calls...I ask my good friend, Siri to set timers and reminders to get me up and moving. The Seven app is so convenient and easy for me! 7 Minutes of simple exercise with no equipment required. It's a great way to get out of bed or have a lil midday break!
What an amazing way to connect...think of FaceTime, Skype, Google Hangouts...BUT BETTER! I connect with colleagues all over the country for weekly meetings and coaching calls using ZOOM! Beginning September 5, 2017 I am hosting bi-weekly prayer calls using Zoom. If you're interested in connecting with other amazing warrior women to start the day with our eyes fixed on Jesus or ending an evening downloading our requests and praises before God, please send me a message so I can get you the information. We gather for just a few minutes while we're getting ready for work on Tuesdays @ 7am PST and on Thursdays @ 7pm. Won't you join us?!
Oh! AND....there will be some online book studies coming soon! Wouldn't it be INCREDIBLE to gather together virtually to connect and have conversation all from the comfort of your own home. No speeding across town in rush hour traffic to get to your connect group, no more having to miss because of a wild storm of because you don't feel too good...it's a convenient option for those outside AZ, travel for work or have very "full" lives like I do...One click login and you get to connect with your girls and have REAL conversation, share insights and ah-ha's, pray together and build relationships with women in different places! The leverage of technology is POWERFUL! If you're interested in learning more, you're DEFINITELY going to want to get on my email list because SO many exciting updates, events, and opportunities to connect are on the way!

Stomach acid—with a pH that's lower than vinegar—that regurgitates into the esophagus and mouth can dissolve tooth enamel and create erosive lesions near the back of the mouth. While many people with GERD recognize it by the uncomfortable heartburn symptoms, some patients only experience GERD while they sleep and may not know they have it. Some patients complain of not sleeping well but do not even realize they are suffering from GERD. Sometimes while doing your dental exam we see an increased loss of tooth enamel on your back teeth that is unexplained and we may advise you to check with your Doctor to be tested for GERD. Your Docor will prescribe a medication that will help inhibit the production of acid, which will in turn help with your GERD and help to save the enamel on your teeth. If you have concerns about GERD and the condition of your teeth ask us at your next visit.

It's almost back to school time!
Seems like school just ended for the summer, but the back to school bell will be ringing very soon- here are a few things you can do to help keep your kids' teeth healthy for when they go back to school! • Plan healthy lunches. Things that are good for teeth include high-calcium dairy products such as milk or cheese; strawberries, which can actually help whiten teeth; high-fiber foods like spinach or beans; and for daily drinks, water. • Re-stock dental supplies. It's never a bad time to check to make sure you're all stocked up on dental supplies. It may even be worth it to leave a bit of floss in your kids' lunches each day, so they can clean their teeth while they're at school. • Set up a rewards program. If your kids have fallen into bad habits during summer, help refocus them by setting up a rewards program. For instance, brushing their teeth can be worth 15 minutes of video-game time and flossing can be another 15. (This can work well for parents, too, with a little self-discipline.) For now, enjoy the rest of the summer!

Here's another great photo from the Powell Flutes trial-session at the 4th Summer Flute Academy at ESMAE, Porto in July. Shown below, Samuel Maia trying out an Aurumite® 9k head joint on a sterling silver Handmade Conservatory flute body. Style style style, Sr. Maia!
Did you know that you can switch out head joints and flute bodies separately? This can be a great solution to finding your dream instrument within your price range!
Aurumite® is a patented-by-Powell fusion of one layer of sterling silver and one layer of gold—in this case, 9 karat gold, on the outside of the tube. Powell offers two other types of Aurumite®: 14k, which has a heavier layer of gold on the inside of the flute tube,and Ruby Aurumite, with a 14k rose gold layer on the outside of the flute tube. All combine the "best of both worlds": the projection of silver with the warmth, depth and finesse of gold. Handmade Conservatory flutes are available in Aurumite 9k, while Handmade Custom are available in 9k, 14k, and Ruby Aurumite. To make an appointment to try them out in Lisbon or in your area, just click here.

Everyone is welcome! Join our global social movement to improve maternity care! 😉
There is always something new happening with #MatExp, and at last we had the chance to speak about it at a global conference. So it made me smile arriving at the prestigious Excel centre in London seeing purple planes taking off every few seconds 😉
I was staying with my best friend from school in the suburbs of London. I had some eventful journeys to and from Excel over the 3 days of the conference. But that is a different story. As is the fun we had together. Thanks Theresa! 😘
There is always great excitement around the Quality and Safety Forum. People are meeting up from all over the world. It is a networking fest. 💜
It was helpful to print off our badges in advance to avoid long registration queues. And add a bit of graffiti. 😉
The stream of people arriving was never ending! 3000 people from 80 different countries.
And here is the very special lady that I couldn't wait to meet. Zel Maikori is doing amazing work improving maternity care in Nigeria. We were going to be presenting together!
First I had to queue to register my poster. Thankfully my friend Maureen had tipped me off to get a fabric version, folded neatly in the top of my bag. People had struggled on planes with long plastic tubes, checked in as excess baggage. 😱
It was a great feeling to see people looking at our #MatExp Whose Shoes poster in the general exhibition, and soon I was going to get a chance to do a poster presentation.
We had also done a '#JFDI' 'video poster', This includes a crowdsourced RAP, personally commissioned by Sarah-Jane Marsh, fab NHS Maternity Transformation leader, performed by some of our amazing #MatExp mums. You can watch it here.
#Quality2017 is huge! I had to get my bearings. I asked Olivia but she just kept smiling at me...
It is such a huge event and so many people to talk to. It is hard to balance all the different things I want to do. I am really looking forward to joining the 'Q community'. 🙏🏼
But I did NOT miss my friend Anya @Anyadei quizzing Don Berwick & Lord Darzi. Wow! 👏🏽👏🏽
It felt incredibly authentic having world healthcare leaders interviewed by patient leaders.
And it was the first time I'd had the privilege to hear Margaret Murphy. A lovely lilting Irish tone, full of insight and common sense. Margaret's son Kevin had decided not to become a doctor in case he made a medical error costing someone their life. And then died himself as a result of a medical error. Well done Margaret for your courage in telling Kevin's story and making so much good come from the learning from this.
Then it was time to vote. Yay! A debate about the tick box culture would take place that evening. I knew which way I would be voting… And yet my friend Christina Krause @ck4q from Canada would be on the opposing team, and she is awesome!
I learned about 'Patients as partners' work in Sweden. A far more structured, 'cautious' approach than Whose Shoes but with very similar aims. I had arranged to meet fab Cristin Lind after the session and compared notes in more detail with one of her colleagues discussing our respective maternity programmes.
At the break, I was missing my co-conspirators in the #MatExp gang -Leigh Kendall was coming, but not until the evening. I fancied a game of Jenga! It always feels quite symbolic to me. How far can you make scarce resources go, before it all comes crashing down!
Leigh is one of our 'no hierarchy, just people' #MatExp leaders and has set up the influential #HugosLegacy, following the death of her son Hugo, born prematurely. I was looking forward to seeing her later.
I headed off for the main exhibition hall. It was time for the poster presentations around person centred care. I wasn't quite sure how it would work, as I hadn't done one before.
I was thrilled to see a 'great poster' sticker on our poster and invitation to submit it to BMJ Open Quality. I have no idea if we will have time to do this - there is just too much happening.
We had a large group of people. The idea was that we would each get the chance to present our poster for five minutes, including the opportunity for others to ask questions. All the posters were really interesting and covered very different topics: global best practice around person-centred care.
The presenters' styles were very different, but as always the more interactive ones were more engaging.
This poster had survived an emergency landing coming from Sydney! ✈ So many stories, so much to learn!
Person centred care is being applied in acute settings – a cardiac ward in Sweden this time!
My mind was working overtime. I have visited Sydney Children's Hospital – and Whose Shoes is being used as part of improving communications in the #CYPMeFirst programme.
I wondered if we'd get round to my presentation. It was almost at the end. I asked people if anyone was keen to join a global movement to improve maternity care – and by the way did they like my necklace? #MatExp 😉
I was thrilled to have a chat with Dr George Perrett, one of the fab Darzi Fellows. We originally met through our coproduction module. He very generously said that 'Whose Shoes' was a really authentic coproduction tool being used very successfully at his hospital: Homerton. It reminded me of the packed (standing room only) #MatExp workshop we'd held there!!
George then did his own presentation – palliative care in an acute setting! Last but not least. Everyone had the chance to crowd around him and ask great questions!
I then went to a session entitled 'Developing the next generation of healthcare leaders in Africa and around the globe'. It was interesting and gave me insights for my own presentation with Zel the following day.
As soon as I sat down, a lovely young GP sitting next to me said Hi ! Dr. Lesley Perkins: another one of the fab Darzi Fellows - I make such great connections through this work! At the end of the session, we stayed and chatted for an hour. I gave her a #JFDI badge for her wonderful work in reducing unnecessary diagnostic tests.
Eek! I needed to make time to do the 'speaker check in' with the technical guys. My presentations are simple in content: visual storytelling rather than death by bullet points. But with embedded audios, film clips and time delays, things can go badly wrong... 😱
I had chosen a good time. The queues had died down and Alec and Richard couldn't have been more helpful. Can you see the sweeties on the table? We had a bit of a laugh! 😂
Alec and I ran through the whole thing. Nothing was too much trouble. We needed to blend it into a single presentation with the slides Zel had already submitted and there was a significant technical hitch. Alec promised to sort it. I gave him a #MatExp 'I said, I did' badge. 😉
I had lost track of the programme. I was disappointed to miss the 'patient innovators' session but heard it was really good. Take a look at a powerful #wearenotwaiting hashtag. I will see if it is available to catch up with on the livestream app.
Then it was off to the evening debate. I was delighted to meet Ann-Marie Riley, one of the originators of #EndPJparalysis. She definitely deserved a #JFDI badge. Kate Pound introduced me to her – apparently she had been 'starstruck on the escalator'. Twitter's a very strange connector!! 😂
The debate was fast paced and entertaining.
Well done indeed Christina Krause. But you owe me one. #VotingBias 😉
It was magical stepping out into the night, reflecting on a great day
I bumped into some wonderful people from across the world – united in the desire to work out the transport system and find our way home!
People. Just people. So much more in common than that which divides us.
On the Friday, it was another early start. My session was at 11am but I wanted to arrive to be part of the social movement session at 8am. I had really enjoyed meeting Sasha Karakuselic the previous evening. Get on board with #EndPJParalysis! Spread the word about #MatExp - over 💥700 million💥 Twitter impressions now!🚀🚀🚀 🔥 Look up #CovMindTheGap too! 🔥 And #VibrantHealth17! 😀📈
Helen Bevan and the Horizons team were leading the session. Kathryn Perera was talking powerfully about what it takes to build a social movement. I was very proud to see @leighakendall on the team. A highly skilled NHS Communications professional, telling everyone about #HugosLegacy and #MatExp. I have just seen that there are over 100 Steller stories about #MatExp and #NobodysPatient, and another 33 about #MatExpAdvent! 🎅🏻🌲😉
Hello Talya from Canada!! When you've been told to talk to the person next to you for 2 minutes, but you find someone really interesting … We sat and chatted for ages. Talya is trying to improve things for older people in Toronto. I told her about #FreeGillsMum.
It was time for our session. Speaking about #MatExp at a global conference. I felt the weight of responsibility as it is such a collaborative project. I had submitted the abstract hoping to speak with my co-founder #FabObs Florence Wilcock, Consultant Obstetrician at Kingston Hospital, but had only managed to secure one main speaker place.
Stowaway Teddy was there early. Where on earth had he come from? "Anyone can be a leader" was his key message. 👏🏽
Zel and I had a final run through in order to decide how best to present our material. We decided to do the whole thing as a double act. We had really 'clicked' by then and become friends. The situation in Nigeria and the UK is the very different but yet so similar in many ways. We are all people & the basic needs are the same.
Challenge assumptions. Shift the power dynamics. These important messages were at the centre of both of our presentations.
A powerful graphic from one of our #MatExp Whose Shoes workshops, drawn by Anna @New_Possibiliti.
Zel spoke about the problems in Nigeria and what they are doing to improve things (lots). We couldn't believe how relevant this comment was, posted in the Nigerian collaborative WhatsApp group the previous day. And for me, it challenged a lot of assumptions, How could some of the problems be so very basic... and yet they had a WhatsApp group??
I was proud to talk about Whose Shoes. Bringing everyone together as equals – 'no hierarchy, just people'. And the audience didn't realise that Leigh was going to join us and talk about the difference #MatExp has made to her as a bereaved mother and to building #HugosLegacy.
The whole session was lively, interactive and dynamic. It was full of 'lemon lightbulbs': lots of tips and ideas of what people can actually do to make a difference. Hoping #FabObs Flo's lithotomy challenge will now take off (even further!) around the world! 🚀
Linking to the challenge that Zel was outlining, I was particularly proud to talk about two projects taking #MatExp Whose Shoes to Uganda. Alice Ladur, for her PhD, is working with men, changing attitudes and improving outcomes for women and babies.
It is so important to walk in other people's shoes and coproduce solutions that work. My favourite example from Zel's presentation was different tactics to get men more involved in their wives' maternity care. If your husband comes to your antenatal appointment, you can jump to the front of the queue! Just imagine suggesting that one in the UK!
I am running out of space. I wish I could tell you you more about our session, particularly how we were challenged at the end about performance measures - what difference is it all making? What have the Romans done for us? We immediately got people from all across the world jumping up saying what they would now do differently. We were handing out #JFDI and 'I said, I did' badges. People were queueing at the end to get our details and to find out how they could join the power - and fun! - of the #MatExp Whose Shoes social movement.
It was fabulous that so many of our friends came along to support us – both English ones…
And our new Nigerian friends! 💜 #Quality2017
We gave a big shoutout to all the fab women, families and staff who have contributed to our collaborative project. It was lovely to see the reciprocity as they too mentioned us.
Leigh and I went off to enjoy lunch together. #MatExp brings real friendships and we certainly know how to unwind and support each other.
Meanwhile, the buzz of the event continued.
But all too soon it was time to say goodbye
Lots of stats 📈📊 were flying about. It seemed I was making quite an impression. I was chuffed to get the chance to put our Whose Shoes work, and particularly #MatExp, on the map.
The time had simply whizzed by and now it was time to go home. I smiled seeing a sea of lemon. Did you know that lemons are the secret ingredient for building a change platform?
It had been an exhilarating two days. I really like the Quality and Safety Forum. Hoping we will get a chance to speak again next year and involve Florence Wilcock, and tell you about our #MatExp'Nobody's Patient' project. For now, it's the weekend and a chance to remove the shoes and grab some moderate inactivity! Thank you for following our journey 💜 Gill @WhoseShoes 👠👡👢👞👟

So this might be a stretch for tupperware tuesday, but I've been looking for an excuse to talk about my favorite hot fudge recipe. I store the butter used in the recipe in my tupperware butter keeper, so that counts, right?!? And I used my tupperware whisk to stir it. :)
My great Aunt Verna was the best. She was my Grandma Arlene's sister, and best friend. She was 98 when she passed, and it was the night before we lost Baby David. She was and is so special to me. My Grandma Arlene died when I was 2, and Verna helped me feel close to my Grandma, even though I never really knew her.
I don't think it was a coincidence that she left us the same time we lost David.
I have always loved making her hot fudge topping, but now, it means even more.
Great Auntie Verna's Hot Fudge Topping:
1/4 c margarine (I use butter)
1/4 c cocoa
1 c sugar
1/3 c milk
Cook until comes to boil, then add a splash of vanilla right before serving.
Eat over ice cream. Add nuts, bananas, peanut butter, berries, whip, or sprinkles.
For only 2 servings: 1 Tbsp margarine (butter), 1 Tbsp cocoa, 1/4 c sugar, 1 Tbsp milk, dash of vanilla.
Eat ice cream with hot fudge, Auntie Verna would want you to.

Microsoft releases Windows 10 Redstone 5 Build 17682 to the Fast ring
Microsoft seems -- finally -- to have got the hang of its six monthly update schedule for Windows 10. Not only has it pushed out the April 2018 Update to over 50 percent of Windows 10 users in a very short space of time, but the next feature update, codenamed Redstone 5, is shaping up very nicely already.
The big new feature in this next major update is Sets, and Build 17682 introduce some improvements to it based on Insider feedback.
- Windows 10 April 2018 Update rolling out at an impressive rate
- Windows XP 2018 Edition is the operating system Microsoft should be making
- How to enable Ultimate Performance power plan in Windows 10
Set's new tab page has been updated to make it obvious that you can launch apps, with favorite choices listed under Frequent Destinations.
In addition, this build improves wireless projection, and makes Remote Server Administration Tools available on demand. For this latter addition you just need to go to "Manage optional features" in Settings and click "Add a feature" to view all the available RSAT components.
There's also a new post-upgrade setup screen which lets you make sure you're still running Windows 10 how you want to be.
Other general changes, improvements, and fixes in this build include:
- Fixed the issue for Windows Insider Program for Business folks where PCs using AAD accounts to receive new flights (via Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider Program) where they would see a "Fix me" option presented and couldn't to receive the latest flights.
- Microsoft is experimenting with adding tips and suggestions to the Settings homepage. If you see one of these, you can choose to opt out by clicking the "…" in the top corner.
- Fixed an issue resulting in some apps missing pinned and recent items when you right-clicked their icons in the taskbar.
- Fixed an issue resulting in File Explorer showing blank/generic icons for any file type associated with a UWP app.
- Fixed an issue where Alt + Tab would sometimes unexpectedly have duplicate entries for app windows in recent flights.
- Fixed a crash when asking Cortana to play any music in recent flights. This issue also impacted the ability to launch apps using voice commands.
- Fixed an issue where if the taskbar jump list didn't show (for example if you clicked away before it finished launching), the next time you watched a video full screen the taskbar would unexpectedly appear on top of the video.
- Fixed an issue where you couldn't scroll to the end of the clipboard items list (WIN + V) using mouse wheel/touchpad.
- Fixed an issue where the wallpaper and app preview thumbnails were unexpectedly flipped when using Task View in Arabic or other bidirectional display languages.
- Screen snipping (WIN + Shift + S, or other entry points) will now default to rectangular snipping. Your most recent mode selection (rectangular or freeform) is preserved across invocations, so you may not notice a change if you have already been using this experience.
- Fixed an issue resulting in the "Add a feature" page in Settings not finding any features in the last few builds.
- Fixed an issue where text written using OTF fonts wouldn't show up when printed.
- Fixed an issue resulting in some apps failing to launch recently with application error 0xc0000005 when certain antivirus software programs were installed.
- Fixed an issue impacting certain touch-capable devices where all Bluetooth accessories would periodically stop working until the screen was touched.
- Fixed an issue resulting in some explorer.exe hangs when using Remote Desktop, projecting your screen, or having multiple monitors in recent flights. This issue may also have led to Microsoft Edge hangs.
- Fixed an issue resulting in multiple Win32 apps and system components becoming unresponsive after waking from sleep in the last two flights.
Known issues include:
- Microsoft is working on adding dark theme in File Explorer and the Common File Dialog, but still has some things to do. You may see some unexpectedly light colors in these surfaces when in dark mode.
- After updating to this build, Mixed Reality Portal will reinstall the Mixed Reality Software and environment settings will not be preserved. If you need your Mixed Reality home experience to persist, Microsoft recommends skipping this build until these issues are fixed.
- Some Insiders may find increased reliability and performance issues when launching Start on this build.
- Some Insiders may experience some bugchecks (GSOD) on this build with "Critical Process Died" error.
- If you have a Surface Studio, it will fail to update to this build with a "Your PC hardware is not supported on this version of Windows 10" error.
Known issues for Sets & Office include:
- Sets UX for Office Win32 desktop apps is not final. The experience will be refined over time based on feedback.
- The top of some Win32 desktop app windows may appear slightly underneath the tab bar when created maximized. To work around the issue, restore and re-maximize the window.
- Closing one tab may sometimes minimize the entire set.
- Tiling and cascading windows, including features like "View Side by Side" in Word, will not work for inactive tabs.
- The Office Visual Basic Editor window will currently be tabbed but is not intended to be in the future.
- Opening an Office document while the same app has an existing document open may cause an unintended switch to the last active document. This will also happen when closing a sheet in Excel while other sheets remain open.
- Local files or non-Microsoft cloud files will not be automatically restored, and no error message will be provided to alert the user to that fact.

Barry's Relatively Speaking: An Exchange Student Starts Chain of Events
Posted on Nov 12, 2012
Barry's Relatively Speaking shares the personal experiences and stories of genealogists found in the Everton Genealogical Helper Magazine collection on MyGenShare.com. D. Quarterson shares the following experience.
I had never had much interest in genealogy for one simple reason; my father often told me that Grandfather Quarterson was an orphan. While I knew my father was born in a little village in southern Belgium called Grez Doiceau and that the
original family name was Quatresous, I saw little reason to document so scrawny a family tree. However, I was in for both a surprise and one of those serendipity experiences which must make a dedicated but frustrated searcher cry.
We had hosted an exchange student from Belgium and our son was invited to spend the following summer in Brussells. During his visit my son's hosts thought he would be interested in visiting the village where my father had been born. It was a pleasant visit but being an extremely small village, the tour took very little time. So, instead of returning directly home they took a side trip to the IBM exhibition and information center. Our exchange student's father worked for IBM and had visited the center many times. So instead of accompanying the tour, he struck up an idle conversation with one of the center employees. The man was surprised to find they had visited Grez Doiceau. After all, that is where he lived and knew for certain there was nothing in such a small village to interest an American teenager. But when it was explained that my son's grandfather had been born there, the gentlemen became quite interested. It seemed that he was the village's archivist in his spare time. He took what information my son's host had on the family and promised to locate and copy my father's birth certificate as a momento of the visit.
What came back exceeded anyone's expectations. It seems that when my father talked of "Grandfather Quarter-son" he was not referring to my grandfather, rather his own father'? father. Our friendly acquaintance r jnaged to trace our lip back to my great great j ,!fathr orn in a nei nboring village it
The boy had indeed been an orphan and following the tradition of the time, the family that took him in "coined" a surname rather than giving him their own. Since he had been left on their doorstep with four coins, called sous, wrapped in a handkerchief, they gave him the name "four sous" or "Quatre Sous". This was later contracted to Quatresous, then Americanized to Quarter-son.
While grandfather lost touch with his uncles, brothers and cousins after emigrating to Pennsylvania in the 1890's; and the rest of the family gradually drifted away from Grez Doiceau; I at least know I have a larger family somewhere and am confident I will find them someday. All this is thanks to a casual side trip, a friendly chat and an inquisitive part-time archivist.

Doug "Uncola" Lynn examines the trends and forces that render elections irrelevant. From Lynn at theburningplatform.com:
In so many ways, elections in America have become just another manifestation of bread and circuses; like watching a reality TV show when your house is on fire. It's why this article was almost named:
"The Inevitableness of Reality Requires Honesty and Acceptance"
Of course, the 2018 Midterm Elections will be analyzed ad nauseam, with other writers and pundits parsing it better than this blogger. However, suffice it to say: There was no Blue Wave and Trump has now solidified leadership of his Republican Party; at least more so than during the last two years of his administration.
In a raucous press conference the day after, Trump claimed victory and said his party "defied history to expand our Senate majority". The president also said his focus in the days prior to the election remained on the senate and pointed out that most of the candidates for whom he campaigned had won their respective races.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Personal health information for 1,708 Ohio residents who have health insurance through Aetna was exposed online, Aetna Inc. said in a statement Friday.
The protected information was "inappropriately available online for a period of time," the company's statement said.
"The information available online generally included first name, last name, Aetna member identification number, provider information, claim payment amount, and in some cases procedure/service codes and dates of service.
"There are no instances of Social Security numbers or bank account or credit card information being involved," the statement said.
The company said it is sending letters explaining the situation to affected plan sponsors and individuals, and will have a toll-free number for affected individuals to call with questions.
Aetna said it confirmed in May that a privacy breach had occurred "involving two computer services that display documents to members." The company said it subsequently took steps to block search engines from displaying information from the documents.
"At this time, we are not aware of any misuse of the information made available online as a result of this incident," Jim Routh, chief security officer for Aetna, said in the company's statement.
Aetna has more than 750,000 members in Ohio, according to the company's website.

Christmas Shopping Gone Wild (Plus One Gift She Wouldn't Expect)
'Tis the season to be jolly. 'Tis the season for cheer. 'Tis also the season to steal presents from indecisive fellow-shoppers' carts without any fear. This was my story a few weeks ago, when my shopping cart got "emptied" by another shopper because I couldn't make up my mind. I had started my Christmas shopping at an online store, where I found the perfect gift for my friend. For a split-second, just a split-second, I hesitated on "proceeding to checkout" and when I refreshed a few moments later, my item was gone from my cart! Shopping does get a little wild this time of the year but that's Ok, because somehow, I got a good feeling from it. It felt good knowing someone had snatched a gift from my cart to purchase it for someone else! In a weird way, I was a Secret Santa. Very nuanced, but a Secret nonetheless. And for that opportunity, I'd allow 15 more cart-thefts from fellow shoppers but no more- all in the spirit of Christmas.
If you haven't started shopping, clearly you like to live on the edge. Lol, I'm kidding. To help you along, below are some PGI-selected gift ideas! "Number 6" on the list labeled "For Her" would be something she would never expect. Of course, it goes both ways and it should equally be on the "For Him" list but we ran out of space *Shrug*
That said, I'd really like to hand Ed a leather-bound folder containing "Number 6", I'm a little tired of buying sweaters and trending gadgets. Just a little. I know it's too late now to get"Number 6", I should have told you earlier, I know, but there's always next Christmas!
As for me, all I want for Christmas is to draw closer to the birthday-boy and some snow! Let the elements align!
Wouldn't it be great handing "Number 6" to a someone-especially someone who really needs it?! What's on your Christmas list?
1. Fendi Cat Eye Sunglasses 2. Kate Spade NY Hybrid Smart Watch 3. FujiFIlm Instax Mini 8 Instant Film Camera 4.Kendall and Kylie Bambi Key Fob 5. Ted Baker Ichlibi Bow Pump 6. Property Deeds encased in a Kate Spade File Folder 7. Victoria Beckham Half Moon Shoulder Bag

Yoga Etiquette
Common courtesies we extend to one another:
Cell phones. We encourage you to take a break from your devices…in fact, unless you are a doctor and/or are expecting some emergency call we ask that you leave your cell phone in the hall, on mute or vibrate, with your other belongings for the duration of the class. If you must have your cell phone with you and will need to answer a call or text we request that you take the following steps to safeguard the peace your fellow yogis are hoping to revel in…1. alert the teacher before class begins. 2. Arrange to be at the back of the room closest to one of the exits and 3. Discreetly and quietly leave to conduct your business so that the class can proceed uninterrupted.
Signing Up and Arriving for a Class
Review our class schedule and select an appropriate class for your level and schedule.
Students may register online to reserve a space or sign up at the studio.
Note: If you have registered online and are not present 3 minutes prior to class your spot will be given to the first person on the wait list if the class is full.
Please arrive at least 5-10 minutes before class starts. Allow time to find parking and to check in and settle down.
Health Concerns
If you have an injury, medical condition or history of an injury and/or a pre-existing medical condition (e.g. low blood pressure, heart conditions, etc.) check with your doctor that your chosen style of yoga is suitable for you and talk to us – we want to help you!
We also ask that you inform the instructor before class. If you are unsure of whether your medical history will permit your participation, please contact us.
And while we don't see being pregnant as a medical condition (we do know that it is a life-changing event) we ask that you inform the instructor, do your research and select an appropriate class for your level. Don't be afraid to ask us questions – we want to help you!
Arriving Late & Leaving Early
For the benefit of yourself and fellow practitioners, we request that you don't arrive to class later than 10 minutes after class has started and to avoid leaving early, if at all possible.
The true benefits of yoga come through experiencing the practice in totality. Each class starts with a warm up period and ends with a relaxation period. These are intrinsic pieces to the whole experience. Entering late and leaving early don't allow for you to achieve the full benefits of the practice and can interrupt your fellow practitioners from reaching their full benefits, as well.
In the event that you arrive late or need to leave class early, please unroll or roll up your mat quietly (in the hallway if necessary), open and close the door mindfully – be aware of how you impact others in transitioning into and out of the practice room.

Mapping the Mixed Emotions following Osama bin Laden's Death The Death of a Terrorist: A Turning Point? [nytimes.com] provides an overview of the wide and varied mix of emotions following Osama bin Laden's recent death. Gathered from about 10,510 unique comments, the dotplot diagram contrasts the responses with negative (left) versus positive (right) emotions, against whether they consider the death significant (top) or insignificant (bottom) in terms of being a turning point in the current war on terror. Squares with darker shades represent multiple comments on the same emotion versus significance location. Although its seems the commenters were allowed to plot their comments themselves (?), some interesting patterns can be observed, both in terms of outliers are a straightforward correlation between the positive emotions and the expectation that a significant turning point is reached.

The expert's guide to Instapaper They arrive by Twitter, by RSS, and by email. They're passed around on social networks. They're embedded in online articles and blog posts. I'm talking about all of those links to things you'd like to read but can't. Making time to read everything you find on the Web the moment you find it is hard, so you probably don't read it at all—unless you use a read-it-later service like Instapaper. Instapaper makes it easy to save online articles for later reading: Just click a bookmarklet in your browser, and the story you're looking at is saved, stripped down to just its text and essential images. Change MAC Address To Bypass Network Usage Restrictions With DynaMAC MAC address, also known as Physical address of a system, assist network administrators to identify clients connected in LAN environment. Changing MAC address of (NIC) Network Interface Controller may come useful in situations where system admins filter out clients by their NICs MAC addresses instead of system IPs. For instance, if an extra security layer is added to the LAN network, system admins may easily identify unauthorized users by reading their MAC addresses even if they have already spoofed their IPs in order to gain access to one specific network group. To prevent this, you might need to change your physical address of NIC card. Moreover, some servers restrict their service usage by identifying periodic requests from same client, i.e same physical address of NIC card. In such a situation, DynaMAC can come useful to quickly bypass restrictions imposed by network admins and website owners to gain access to network and use online services.

What's hot? Introducing Zeitgeist We've just launched an exciting new project which, as you can see from the screenshot above, looks (and behaves) a bit differently from most other things on the Guardian site. Zeitgeist is a visual record of what people are currently finding interesting on guardian.co.uk at the moment. While other bits of the site are curated by editors (like the front page, or individual sections) or metadata (like blogs, which display in reverse-chronological order), Zeitgeist is dynamic, powered by the attention of users, which is why we've put this into the Community section. The combination of content objects changes throughout the day, sometimes by the minute, as activity shifts around the site, stories get linked to or talked about, new stories are published and become widely-read and so on. You can also explore what was attracting attention on a given day in history (2010 only, for the time being) via the "previous" and "next" navigation links. So how does a story end up in the Zeitgeist?

Screen recordings, also known as screencasts, could serve a number of purposes, such as teaching your less tech-savvy relatives or friends some time-saving techniques, and showing customer service agents what the problem is when screenshots are just not enough. You have a few options when it comes to screencasting (such as Camtasia which offers to record your screen for $299, or Camstudio). However, if you want simpler applications that can do the same thing without the heavy toll on your computer's memory or your wallet, try these easy-to-use web-based solutions. Since all of the following offer the recordings for download, you can edit the screencasts to your liking in your preferred video editor, or start over with ease.
30+ Cool Content Curation Tools for Personal & Professional Use As the web becomes more and more inundated with blogs, videos, tweets, status updates, news, articles, and countless other forms of content, "information overload" is something we all seem to suffer. It is becoming more difficult to weed through all the "stuff" out there and pluck out the best, most share-worthy tidbits of information, especially if your topic is niche. Let's face it, Google definitely has its shortcomings when it comes to content curation and the more it tries to cater to all audiences, the less useful it becomes. The demand for timely, relevant content that is specific to our unique interests and perspectives has given rise to a new generation of tools that aim to help individuals and companies curate content from the web and deliver it in a meaningful way.

Thoughts Before I Go
In the comfort of my childhood home anticipation flooded my mind.
The next four months promise change. I will be living in Barcelona with a lady in her early sixties who only speaks Spanish. As I processed this new information, a stir of emotions surfaced within me.
First, a laughter fueled by excitement overcame me. Next, without warning, the upcoming changes culminated and hit me in the gut, leaving me feeling completely overwhelmed. The comforts of home and my support system of close friends would be an ocean away.
Anxious thoughts infiltrated my mind until the voice of reason raised her voice, introducing the question, "Julia, isn't this what you wanted? Here lies the opportunity to improve your language skills, to embrace a new culture, to learn how to be more independent and self sufficient. Here lies the opportunity to feel invigorated by a completely new and unique experience that will take you outside your comfort zone.
Yes, this is uncomfortable, but that means you should do it.
An intrinsic wanderlust fuels my curiosity about the world, and I understand that the only way to make the most of this experience is to live with an open mind. So, may 2018 teach me how to open my mind and my heart and live vivaciously.
Adios, 2017
