For all of your Trailer Work, AutoVaun in Mesa, AZ 85215 knows how to fix the problem. Our knowledgeable experts will have you back on the road in no time. Leave the dirty work to us!
Our Trailer Work services include:
A brake is a mechanical device for inhibiting a truck's motion. Unlike car brakes, truck brakes have to be bigger and more powerful to stop the truck and its load. Most brakes use friction to convert kinetic energy into heat. The brakes store braking heat in the disc brake or drum brake when braking and then conduct it to the air gradually.
Faulty brakes put you and other road users at a great risk. Faulty brakes increase the chances of collisions. If your truck has braking issues, visit or call AutoVaun today. At AutoVaun, we have brake experts who will diagnose and work on your truck braking system.
Landing Gear
The landing gear is the part of a moving truck that is underneath the main body. It is the supporting structural framework of a truck. A landing gear incorporates the wheels, suspension, brakes, traction motors, and powered units. In case of faulty landing gear, visit AutoVaun today.
Lights are one of the most important parts of any vehicle. This is especially so if you travel early in the morning or late in the evening. The lights provide illumination for you as you drive. In trucks, the lighting system is made up of front, sides, rear, and top lights. The lights are designed to let you drive safely after dark. To increase your safety and the safety of other road users, make sure your truck's lights are in good working condition. Have the lights and the lighting system checked by the experts at AutoVaun. Call us at 480-807-6555 today.
Suspension is a collective name given to the system of shocks, springs, and linkages that connect a truck to its wheels and allow relative motion between the two. The suspension system has the following main purposes: keeping the occupants of the truck comfortable, contributing to the truck's handling and braking, protecting the truck from wear and damage, maximizing the friction between the tires and the road surface; and increasing safety.
With a faulty suspension system, the truck's performance and handling will be greatly affected. Also, driving on rough roads will not be an easy task. If roads were perfectly flat, suspensions would not be necessary. To have your truck's suspension system checked, repaired or replaced by suspension experts, contact or visit AutoVaun in Mesa, AZ 85215 today.
Honest efficient and straight forward, they were willing to walk me through the work needed and answered all my questions.
We have been going to Autovaun for years, they are outstanding. They are not a discount service center so do not expect to save money over a dealership, but they are truly honest, there have been many times where a dealer told me one thing, with multiple items needing to be replaced and at a huge expense and autovaun found and repaired the actual single broken part. We have never had an issue with any work done and all the repairs have lasted us.
They filled my AC with freon and put in a dye that would let them know where the leak was. Since it was leaking I had them fix the ac. While there they noted my check engine light was on, explained to me it was most likely the catalytic converter and called the dealer finding out it was still under warranty. He told me to have them run a diagnostic. Sure enough, the catalytic converter needed to be replaced and everything was covered. I really appreciate Autovaun for going above and beyond to help me out like that.
Quick in, low wait time, and quick out for headlight bulb replacements. Saved me over $100 instead of going to the stealership. I would definitely come here again .
Care (oil change/maintenance) for our two vehicles. "Service with a smile." Over the past few years Autovaun has taken care of pop-up problems with our vehicles (Camry and Buick... older models) with fair prices, timely service and a family attitude that beckons us back...and we go. I trust these folks... and that's not an easy thing to do nowadays with car repair shops...whether it be at dealerships, franchises or independents.... YUP... highly recommended! Thanks Autovaun!!
Have taken our cars to Vaun's for several years. They are friendly and helpful. The prices seem far and they have always stood behind everything they do. They are honest and will tell you if something that needs repaired can wait for a bit or is emergent.
Our family has taken our cars to Autovaun for about ten years. They have always been courteous and personable. We are very protective of our vehicles and the team at Autovaun are too. They are extremely fair in their pricing. They recommend any maintenance that should be considered while also providing an explanation to the effects on the vehicle if the service is not performed and or how long (distance) until it will become a problem. In other words, they are hyper-vigilant about customer costs.
Had upper and lower control arms replaced on my 99 Chevy van at a GMC dealership. Drove it down the highway and it was drifting to the right. Took it back to the dealership. They adjusted the alignment but it still drifted to the right. They told me to go to a frame shop...my frame must be bent...nothing more they could do. Within an hour...Autovaun professional tech had my van perfectly aligned. Thank you guys for blessing my sock offs. Great job!
A regular customer for 4 years now, I continue to return to AutoVaun because they consistently provide a positive experience. The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable, and offer a level of customer service rarely seen any more.
Great job!

Bank security or lack thereof.
Not getting into details, but imagine a firm with three directors Adam, Brian, and Charlie they're all listed on Companies House and they all have access to the firm's bank account.
For various reasons Brian and Charlie have now left and been replaced by David and Eric; they're now listed on Companies house and Brian and Charlie removed. The next step is to give them access to the bank account.
The form to fill out is generally something called a Mandate Change form and allows the addition of signatories to the account; simple enough. However consider who needs to sign and authorise this particular form.
If you thought that it would need to be done by the only extant signatory on file, Adam, congratulations you have a basic grasp of security; if you thought that it could be signed by any director listed on Companies House then congratulations you probably work for a bank.
Remember the bank don't have signature samples of either David or Eric yet amazingly enough it would only take the unknown signatures of these two to provide complete access to the firm's accounts. Oh sure the person being added needs to fill in their own form and provide proof of their identity, but that doesn't need to be signed by Adam either.

I get asked quite a bit about our "parenting philosophy" and I finally started to describe it as being an "F16 Parent". This is somewhere between the concept of the "Helicopter Parent" and the "Free Range Parent". In a nutshell, we give lots of freedom - with a ton of back-up "fire power" if there is the need for intervention. You never know when that safe Bruce Banner loses his mind and goes all Hulk Smash, putting your child in harms way! Here is a video where I give a more in-depth description of what an F16 Parent means to us!
Well, I am off to finish helping my 9 year old pack for his 3 week adventure and polishing up the fighter jet in case it's needed for "reinforcement"

Plumbing in Tyngsborough, MA: Installation and maintenance of plumbing and sewage systems
Domestic water supply systems are installed in those areas where winter temperatures are above 2 degrees. At a lower temperature, it is necessary to provide special measures to prevent freezing of water in the pipes. In the areas of high humidity, the pipes are insulated. This measure is needed to prevent condensation of water vapor which can cause enhanced corrosion. The networks of pipes are connected by threading or welding. To ensure the normal operation of the domestic water supply system, a professional plumber Tyngsborough will install valves. The valves are needed to disable certain areas, but no more than one riser in a building which is taller than 50 meters. The mechanism is designed to provide you with the two-way water supply.
The internal networks of pipes may include watering taps at the rate of one tap per 60-70 meters of building perimeter. Installation is carried out by a professional plumber Tyngsborough in the following sequence: the pipes are mounted, the fixtures are installed, the pipelines are laid, everything is connected and fixed, and then the risers are mounted and connected to the public network. Basically, there are two ways to install water supply and heating systems. If you are going to do bathroom renovation or replace your plumbing completely, you may want to consider both of them. The first type of mounting includes installation of plumbing with the pipes laid out in a sequential order. With the second type of installation, the water is distributed with a help of collector. In this case, one end of the collector is attached to the cold water pipe, and another one is attached to the hot water pipes.
An important component of any sewerage or water supply system is the provision of suitable conditions under which the disposal of the household waste, waste water and other pollutants is taken into account. In order to install plumbing, a licensed plumber Tyngsborough must do the following things:
– Installation of sewer systems outside the building. At the initial stage, it is required to create the most appropriate communication which will be responsible for sewerage pipes (also called the external pipes).
– Installation of internal sewer systems. It is impossible to install the sewer system without performing a function check of all exterior pipes. The plumber must make sure that the pipes are suitable for operation. Only after all external pipes have been checked, the plumber can proceed with the internal plumbing. The works should include wiring of sewage pipes inside the building and installation of the necessary plumbing.
If the drainage or plumbing system has been installed in accordance with all the rules and by using only the high-quality equipment, you can be sure that the troubles and worries associated with installation of sewers can be forgotten for a long time. In addition, you should understand that the regularly and properly working sewage system greatly depends not only on the sanitary conditions, but also on the ecology. It so happens that even when you maintain your plumbing in a good condition, you may need a help of the professional plumber Tyngsborough.

Further Adventures in Hyperspace2018-10-22 05:11 pm
You may remember from my previous post about
Hyperviewer that I'd been plagued by
a mysterious bug. The second time the program tried to make a simplex (the
N-dimensional version of a triangle (N=2) or tetrahedron (N=3), a whole batch
of "ghost edges" appeared and the program (quite understandably) blew up. I
didn't realize it until somewhat later, but there were ghost vertices as
well, and that was somewhat more fundamental. Basically,
nVertices, the
field that holds the number of vertices in the polytope, was wildly wrong.
Chasing ghosts
Eventually I narrowed things down to someplace around here, which is where things stood at the end of the previous post.
I found this by throwing an error, with a big data dump, right in the middle
nVertices was wrong (it's supposed to be
dim+), or if the length of the
list of vertices was different from
1 let vertices = []; 2 /* something goes massively wrong, right here. */ 3 if (this.nVertices !== (dim + 1) || this.nEdges !== ((dim + 1) * dim / 2) || 4 this.vertices.length !== 0 || this.edges.length !== 0 ) { 5 throw new Error("nEdges = " + this.nEdges + " want " + ((dim + 1) * dim / 2) + 6 "; nVertices = " + this.nVertices + " want " + dim + 7 "; vertices.length = " + this.vertices.length + 8 ' at this point in the initialization, where dim = ' + dim + 9 " in " + this.dimensions + '-D ' + this.name 10 ); 11 } 12 for (let i = 0; i < dim; ++i) {
It appeared that
nVertices was wildly wrong at that point. If I'd looked
carefully and thought about what
nVertices actually was, I would probably
have found the bug at that point. Or even earlier. Instead, what clinched it
was this:
1 this.vertices = vertices; 2 this.nVertices = vertices.length; // setting this to dim+1 FAILS: 3 // in other words, this.nVertices is getting changed between these two statements! 4 if (this.vertices.length !== this.nVertices || this.edges.length !== 0) { 5 throw new Error("expect " + this.nVertices + " verts, have " + this.vertices.length + 6 " in " + this.dimensions + '-D ' + this.name + 7 "; want " + this.nEdges + " edges into " + this.edges.length 8 ); 9 }
The code that creates the list of vertices produces the right number of
vertices. If I set
nVertices equal to the length of that list, everything
was fine.
If instead I set
it was wrong. Huh? For example, in four dimensions, the number of vertices
is supposed to be five, and that was the length of the list. When is
not equal to
At this point a light bulb went off, because it was clear that
dim+1 was
coming out equal to 41. In three dimensions it was 31. When is
4+1 not
equal to 5? When it's actually
"4"+1. In other words,
dim was a string.
JavaScript "helpfully" converts a string to a number when you do anything
arithmetical to it, like multiply it by something or raise it to a power. But
+ isn't always an arithmetic operation! In JavaScript (and many other
languages) it's also used for string concatenation.
What went wrong, and a rant
The problem was that, the second time I tried to create a simplex, the
number of dimensions was coming from the user interface. From an
element in a web form. And every value that you get from a web form is a
string. HTML knows nothing about numbers, and it has no way to know what
you're going to do with the input you get.
So the fix was simple (and you can see it here on GitHub: convert the value from a string to a number right off before trying to use it as a number of dimensions. But… But… But cubes and octohedrons were right!
That's because the number of vertices in a N-cube is
2**N, and in an
N-orthoplex (octohedron in three dimensions) it's
N*2 (and multiplication is
always an arithmetic operator in JavaScript). And it worked when I
was creating the simplex's vertices because it was being compared against in a
for loop. And so on.
If I'd been using a strongly-typed language, the compiler would have found this two weeks ago.
There are two main ways of dealing with data in a programming language, called "strong typing" and "dynamic typing". In a strongly-typed language, both values and variables (the boxes you put values into) have types (like "string" or "integer"), and the types have to match. You can't put a string into a variable with a type of integer. Java is like that (mostly).
Some people find this burdensome, and they prefer dynamically-typed languages like JavaScript. In JavaScript, values have types, but variables don't. It's called "dynamic" typing because a variable can hold anything, and its type is that of the last thing that was put into it.
You can write code very quickly in a language where you don't have to declare your variables and make sure they're the right type for the kind of values you want to put into them. You can also shoot yourself in the foot much more easily.
There are a couple of strongly-typed variants on JavaScript, for example CoffeeScript and TypeScript, and a type-checker called "Flow". I'm going to try one of those next.
There was one more problem with simplexes
(simplices?) … but that was purely geometrical, and just because I was trying to do all the geometry in my head instead of on paper, and wasn't thinking things through.
If you're in N dimensions, you can create an N-1 dimensional simplex by simply
connecting the points with coordinates like
[0,1,0], and
[0,0,1] (in three dimensions – it's pretty easy to see that that gives you
an equilateral triangle). Moreover, all the vertices are on the unit sphere,
which is where we want them. The last vertex is a bit of a problem.
A fair amount of googling around (or DuckDuckGoing around, in my case) will
eventually turn up this answer on
which says that in N dimensions, the last vertex has to be at
x=-1/(1+sqrt(1+N)). Cool! And it works. Except that it's not
centered – that last vertex is a lot closer to the origin than the others.
It took me longer than it should have to get this right, but the center of the
simplex is its "center of mass", which is simply the average of all the
vertices. So that's at
y=(1+x)/(N+1) because there are N+1 vertices. Now
we just have to subtract y from all the coordinates to shift it over until the
center is at the origin.
Then of course we have to scale it so that all the vertices are back on the unit sphere. You can find the code here, on GitHub.
Another fine post from The Computer Curmudgeon.

Meghalaya's bura buri government run by the Congress has failed to address the health care concerns of the people, Union home minister Rajnath Singh said, using the Garo term for "husband and wife" to refer to Chief Minister Mukul Sangma and his minister wife.
Addressing two rallies in the Congress bastion of the Garo Hills ahead of Assembly elections on 27 February, Singh attacked the state government over a range of issues, including health care and law and order.
The Centre had raised the allocation of funds for the state fourfold since the Modi government came to power, but the state was still to see development, he said.
Rooting for the BJP in the North East state, he said the party would make Meghalaya the "Scotland of the East" if elected to power, as it had tremendous potential for tourism.
At his rallies in Songsak in East Garo Hills and Tura in the West Garo Hill region, the minister said it was "painful" that the state's people had to go to Bangladesh for treatment.
The senior BJP leader, who started and ended his speeches with a few words in the local language, said his party would ensure proper health facilities throughout the state if it came to power. "I have been told that patients from here were taken to Bangladesh for treatment on a charpoy (cot). This is very painful," he said.
Taking on the Congress-led government, he said it was unfortunate that there was no health infrastructure despite the chief minister being a doctor.
Singh pointed out that the BJP government at the Centre had announced a health insurance scheme which would provide people with free treatment of up to Rs 5 lakh. "The BJP will completely transform health care in the state if it comes to power," he said.
The party would convert the Shillong Hospital into a research institute and open a cancer hospital in the state, he said. Referring to the law and order situation, the Union minister claimed there were 57 police stations, of which only 39 were active.
"How can you expect proper law and order in the state in such a scenario? Who is responsible?" he asked, claiming that if BJP formed the government, it would resolve all law and order issues within three months.
State government employees, he added, were getting the 5th Pay Commission salaries but the BJP would put them on a par with other states.

Utah Considers Putting Stronger Focus on Coding, Programming
A recent national Computer Science Education Week "Hour of Code" event, a one-hour introduction to computer programming, was attended by more than a dozen Utah schools. Teaching kids about computers earlier and moving the currently required computer technology class to middle school is included in the initial recommendations to state leaders. Requiring Utah teens to take another, more advanced computer class to graduate is being pushed by at least one task force. About one-third of Utah high schools teach computer programming or computer science.
As Lisa Schencker of The Salt Lake Tribune reports, a new ninth-grade elective called Exploring Computer Science is taught by about 20 Utah schools and state leaders hope to see that number expand to 50 next school year. Advocates of requiring more advanced computer instruction in Utah schools, such as classes that could include coding, say those skills are becoming increasingly important.
"It's a scientific process. It's a mathematical process. It's [a] literacy process," said Sydnee Dickson, director of teaching and learning at the state office. "Every profession involves some type of coding."
Coding, which is essentially computer programming, is both creative and logical according to teacher Ed Mondragon.
"It forces them to think differently," said Mondragon, who's been teaching computers for more than two decades.
Other schools refused to be overshadowed as they also hosted similar programs. About 40 companies were invited by the Wasatch Institute of Technology charter school, slated to open in South Jordan next year, to the Adobe building in Lehi to teach kids about coding and computer science. Kids as young as age 5 were taught about coding at Freedom Elementary in Highland, by playing a game in which they used cards with directions to move adults around a classroom.
"We all use [computers] without knowing about coding, but the interesting thing about learning the basics of coding is it's the basics of thinking logically," said Canda Mortensen, Freedom assistant principal.
"Coding is kind of the vehicle," Mortensen said, "but what we really want them to think about is, 'If you say this one thing, does it get you what you need?'"
By essentially playing a more advanced version of the game the Freedom kindergarteners played earlier in the week, junior Ruby Straaten practiced coding at a computer at Hillcrest High. She attempted to move an Angry Bird through a maze by giving it a series of directions, but could only use so many directions to do it.
"It's just like learning a new language," said Straaten, who hopes to go into the field.
Mary Evans, a freshman, also tried her hand at coding for the first time.
"It's really so much easier than I thought it was," Evans said. "It's kind of amazing more people don't know about this."

Two meetings, 150 kilometres apart, among Kenya's three dominant political families has fuelled furious speculation and foreshadowed just how acrimonious the 2022 succession might be.
The scheming and expected betrayal back-stabbing are reminiscent of the Jomo Kenyatta, Daniel Moi and Mwai Kibaki succession wars.
The truce between President Uhuru Kenyatta and opposition chief Raila Odinga on March 9 and the meeting on April 12 between Raila and former President Daniel Moi are shifting the political landscape. The country is in campaign mode four years too soon.
Read :
A suspected clandestine deal among the Kenyatta, Moi and Odinga families, if it takes shape, would be a powerful force in 2022, a juggernaut crushing competitors.
With Uhuru exiting and Raila indicating he might not (or might) run for State House, politicians are trying to sense which way the wind is blowing and positioning themselves as potential heirs.
While DP William Ruto has been seen as the Jubilee Party's flagbearer and Uhuru's heir apparent, it no longer seems like a done deal and many people are working to ensure he does not occupy State House.
He was excluded from advance knowledge of the handshake deal and he wasn't allowed to pick his allies for the Cabinet, positioning himself for 2022. Is the succession deal — Jubilee ruling for 20 years — still a sure thing.?
There's Baringo Senator Gideon Moi, the leader of Kanu, which is in Jubilee. But he had Ruto have a history of animosity. After his father's meeting with Raila, he could get a boost to his own presidential ambitions, from both men.
In the opposition, the main figures in the race — so far — are ANC's Musalia Mudavadi, Wiper's Kalonzo Musyoka and Ford Kenya's Moses Wetang'ula.
If he's not in the race, Raila will play the role of kingmaker, which is why his recent warmth with the Mois and Kenyattas has caused ripples and anxiety.
Raila believes William Ruto cost him the presidency in 2012 and most believe he will most likely support anyone but Ruto.
Yesterday the DP said early succession talk about changing the Constitution — and creating a powerful PM — was misplaced. He spoke as Turkana Governor Josphat Nanok said, "During the last election, Turkana people were not with you. But this time we are working with other Rift Valley communities to have one voice on leadership."
Speaking during a thanksgiving ceremony for Trade PS Chris Kiptoo at Chepkosom Primary School in Uasin Gishu, Ruto said the Uhuru-Raila cooperation pact was aimed at uniting the country.
"It's the Kenyan people who have the mandate to elect leaders of their choice. There's no way a few individuals in Parliament can have the responsibility of electing people to powerful positions," Ruto said.
The DP said Kenyans should not misinterpret the ongoing handshakes as avenues to share or create seats for some individuals.
"Politics is behind us. The next election will be in 2022. It's therefore time we focus our energies in serving the people who elected us," Ruto said.
Also read :
Murkomen said the handshake should not be used to derail the development agenda.
"Some people want to take advantage of the handshake to call for a referendum and politics will be the order of the day until 2022. This will deny us the opportunity to implement the Big Four agenda," Murkomen said.
Ainabkoi MP William Chepkut said, "Ruto is the highest-ranking leader in Rift Valley and there is no competition in this region. No soul can tell us otherwise."
Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi said, "The Kalenjin community will not allow Gideon Moi to block William Ruto's chance of becoming Kenya's fifth President."
"Ruto started as hustler and rose through leadership ranks the hard way. Hardship can produce the best President."
Emurua Dikkir MP Johana Ng'eno asked Ruto to consolidate his Rift bloc and end divisions before reaching out to other regions. He told Ruto to his face to bring back rebel politicians and reduce the number of enemies before 2022.
Ngeno told Ruto face-to-face to bring back rebel politicians from his community and reduce his enemies ahead of tough 2022 battle. When the time comes, the community will consult and might ask Gideon Moi to step aside for Ruto, he said.
In Nakuru on Saturday, Mudavadi rejected claims he would join forces with Gideon in 2022, saying he had no plans to meet to meet him. However, he said he was open to working with like-minded leaders to form a formidable force for a better nation . He defended the plan to merge his party with Ford Kenya and said he is not forming a Luhya party.
"ANC and Ford Kenya are national parties which won't lock out other communities since the parties are represented countrywide," Mudavadi said.
"We should not pretend we can't talk about 2022 now. Plans, reorganisations and realignments have to be done. But we should not be so consumed that we fail to deal with priorities of the day," the former Deputy Prime Minister said.
Yesterday, some Kilifi county leaders launched campaigns for Ruto's 2022 presidential bid, saying days of being in opposition are over.
Led by Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa, they said Ruto was the only suitable presidential candidate and called on on everyone to support him.
Jumwa spoke during fundraising for Naona Mwangaza women's group attended by Senate Speaker Ken Lusaka, representing DP Ruto.
For the first time, she shared a platform with Kilifi Jubilee leaders, indicating they are now working together, despite political affiliations.If the Coast supports government, there will be more benefits, she said.
Present were Nominated Senator Christine Zawadi, Magarini MP Michael Kingi and several MCAs. Both Jumwa and Kingi were ODM diehards but allegiances are shifting.
Lusaka urged Coast and Western leaders to unite with the rest of the country to be part of one party and the government in 2022.
Kingi said the Coast leaders would decide between Ruto and Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho for President. He said the region must be in government, not opposition.
Elsewhere, Narok North MP Moitale ole Kenta Raila, his party leader, to declare if he will run for President in 2022, or support another candidate.
Also read :
He said even if the former PM doesn't run, there's no guarantee the Maasai will support Raila's choice for President.
Addressing journalists in Narok town over the weekend, Kenta said Raila should consult all leaders ab out 2022.
"Kenya is not for the Kenyatta, Moi and Odinga's families, it is for all Kenyans," he said. "If Uhuru and Raila's coming together is for succession politics, we are not part of it. As a community, we don't want to be dragged into issues and later be left out," Kenta said.
He said Kenyans are suspicious and people are "on our neck to give them
"If it is unity to bring change to this country, we support it but we will oppose it if is about 2022 succession politics. Kenya is not a dynasty nation," Kenta said.

Let me give you an image.
You're outside. It is summer and it's hot, but there's a light breeze that makes the temperature just right. Dandelion seeds are lazily carried over the soft, springy grass underneath or are carried up into the lazuli sky. You pull your shoes off, sit down, and read.
Are you comfortable?
Heck no. Ants. Sunburn. Nothing to lean on. Grass stains, wind playing with your pages, grass pressing painfully into your elbows. Suddenly, reading in the garden/field/park doesn't seem to be a thing you can do spontaneously without preparation. What you need is a reading kit.
Here's a list of things to take with you when you're an outdoor reader:
In the park:
You've been working your ass off and you can hear the birds outside calling your name. You deserve a break and some sunshine, so you prepare a picnic basket for one:
- blanket to avoid grass stains
- firm pillow to lean on or one of those collapsible thingies
- bookmark (preferably two to clasp your pages tight, for windproof reading)
- sun lotion
- hoodie (you never know when those clouds can come back)
- plastic bag to keep bugs from crawling into your things
- optional: food and drink that don't spill easily. It isn't easy to put down a half-empty can of soda on tall grass.
- Or: go sit on a bench like the others, and use your coat as a pillow so your butt doesn't fall asleep on the hard surface. Didn't you see the sign that you should stay off the grass?
In the city:
if you're tired of shopping or walking and you just want to read for an hour or two before that one friend can come do that one thing with you, it can be hard to find that one spot where you're allowed to sit for a long time without being judged. And what if it's raining?
Coffee shops:
- money. Those chai lattes won't pay for themselves, and it's the only way to bribe the owner to let you stay a bit longer.
- music to block out the noise
- napkins. if you're going for the jar of bar nuts, you're going to get orange fingers.
Train stations:
- music
- hoodie, hats, fingerless gloves and whatnot – it's indoor, but stations can still be cold. Fingerless gloves are a must if you don't want to pull a glove off every time you want to turn a page.
theatres (if you're going to go to the theatre, you might as well go early and enjoy their plush seating with a book)
- flashlight
- napkins (sticky fingers!)
- shoes that are easy to slip off (no one will notice anyway, and no way that you can sit like that for so long)
Universities (that is, if you can pull off looking like a student)
- coins for the vending machine
- clock (in my experience, they're always behind, early, or absent)
- nothing. You don't even have to bring a book. Maybe a library card.
On a break whilst hiking/cycling:
-mud/rainproof bags. You want to keep your book safe and you don't know how far the next shelter will be.
- umbrella
- something to drink. By the time you have reached your ideal reading destination, you will probably be tired and thirsty.
On public transport:
- a ticket (ideal bookmark!)
- music to shut out the noise of wailing babies or of girlfriends on their phone
- scarf/jacket to prop against the window as a pillow
- if you're me, something against motion sickness
At the beach:
- don't. your book is going to be covered in sand.
pebbly beaches:
that's better.
- pillow/blanket for sitting on. Stones aren't comfortable!
- bookmarkers to fight the wind
- hoodie for when it gets cold
- towel. When there's water, stuff gets wet.
- waterproof bag
- two trees
- a hammock (not a wiry one unless you want to look like you wore giant fishnets)
- pillow
- someone to gently wave a palm leaf next to you ànd hold your drink
|freezing feet, so comfortable!
Reading in lots of different places somehow makes me end up with lots of different bookmarks. I've used receipts, postcards (ones I bought myself or got from others), ribbons, yarn, bits of cardboard, unused teabags, feathers, and whatnot. One of my favorite was a receipt for boots I bought in San Francisco, because it felt like it made me look cool. But well, duh. I read books. That's a +5 charisma right there.
And you're reading my blog, which is a +15 sexy.
Until next time,

Breastfeeding is beautiful, healthy, comforting, but lets be real, there are some parts to breastfeeding that suck, no pun intended. This list should work as a great reminder to all the breastfeeding mamas, to realize how much they go through to ensure their baby gets the best nutrition possible. I have to say despite the hard parts, it's definitely worth it!
1.) Engorged Boobs.
Waking up to gigantic boobs isn't always the greatest. They are hard, sometimes sore, and the letdown is strong, so sometimes I have to hand express some milk before feeding my baby or he'd drown in my milk. It's also not fun not being able to fit in my bras and when my boobs go back to regular size, my shirts stay stretched out, not a good look. People say, "Oh, but it's like you have a free boob job flaunt those boobies!" Ummm, I'm a sleep deprived mom, with a baby attached 24/7, and oh just the little fact that they are full of milk, and they spring leaks all throughout the day, oh yeah I feel soooo sexy, give me a break!
2.) Lopsided Boobs.
Yeah talk about a confidence drainer. My left boob is a D Cup while my right is a B Cup, so not a good look. My boobs are literally winking at people, not cool man.
3.) Mastitis.
Let me just say this, I wouldn't wish Mastitis on my worst enemy! The swelling, the pain, chills, it's miserable. Mastitis is not pretty and not fun and can really bring a mama down. I contemplated giving up completely a few times because I couldn't really function as a human being, much less a mom.
4.) Leaky Boobs.
Why oh why do they gotta leak? Why can't the milk just stay contained inside my boobs? It's as if the boobs like to play a cruel sick joke to remind you that you have milk even when you're not even with your baby. Oh yeah , just a random baby crying at the grocery store and it's like Mount Saint Helen.
5.) Getting Your Nipples Bit.
Yes, every once in a while baby likes to use you as a chew toy. You don't get any warning either. It's like suck, suck, suck, CHOMP!!!! So not right. It's like he wants to make sure I'm still alive or something.
6.) Breastfeeding discrimination.
No one ever thinks that they would be harassed or asked to leave a public place because of the way they feed their child, but it happens a lot and it's so wrong on so many levels. How anyone could find anything offensive over a mom feeding her child is unthinkable! I wish I didn't even have to include this on my list , but it's a big part of breastfeeding, unfortunately, and it truly sucks.

I take advantage of that opportunity and create my own soup from scratch.
This soup looks complicated but is actually one of the easiest soups I have ever made.
The main ingredient sweet potatoes, are one of the most nutritious "super foods" making headlines these days.
I gave it an exotic flair by using spices from India.
Having an immersion blender on hand will make it even easier as you won't have to purée the soup in batches in a blender or food processor. You can just blend it right in the pot.
This would make an elegant appetizer for a dinner party or an easy weeknight meal with warm whole grain bread and a spinach salad.
The best part is that it tastes wonderful, and is good for you too!
Curried Sweet Potato Soup
- ~oil
- 1 onion diced
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 6 to 8 peeled and diced sweet potatoes
- 2 teaspoons each of curry, cinnamon and cumin
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- salt and pepper
- 4 cups of chicken stock
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup of cream
- ~parsley
In a large wide soup pot heat the oil and brown the onion and garlic.
Add the sweet potatoes, spices and chicken broth.
Bring to a low boil and cook until potatoes are soft.
Reduce heat .
Purée soup with an immersion blender until almost smooth. Add milk and cream and continue to purée until smooth and blended.
Adjust seasonings and stir in parsley
Serve with an optional flourish of sour cream or crémé fraiche in the center.

Over the last few years, having a photo booth has become a very popular addition to weddings. If you are still deciding whether having a photo booth on your big day is a good idea, here's a few reasons why I think having my photo booth is an absolute must!
Everyone just loves to be a bit crazy, and my photo booth gives guests that chance to show their personality with that little bit of extra privacy. Get some props in there with them to help provide a bit of inspiration and you are guaranteed to end up with some hilarious and memorable snaps to showcase the more wild side of the day. The morning after, all the images will be online for everyone to relive, regret and talk about for weeks after.
There is nothing better than the sound of fun and laughter coming from a photo booth! They offer fantastic entertainment value for everyone, and to capture a few images takes just a few minutes. Then if you can't get enough, head back for round two, three or four! You get unlimited photos throughout the night, allowing everyone to use the booth as much as they want.
"Ed's photo booth was amazing I had to so much fun in there with my daughter!" - Nicola.
"It was brilliant, such a laugh and it was great to have something the children and grandparents could get involved with." – Sarah
"The photos we got of my daughters dressing up are brilliant. Thanks again!" - Lianne
My photo booth can fit a lot of people. Guests can jump right in at any time with anyone, making it a great opportunity to chat, socialise and break the ice. You may end up with an assortment of different groups of people. Your grandma will have her arm around your number one drinking partner from your university days before you know it.
It is usually very difficult to capture photos of every single guest at your wedding (as hard as I try, there's always a few camera shy folk). It becomes even harder when all of those extra evening guests turn up. Some people try to solve this with disposable cameras on the tables. But with this you risk getting back a load of blurry photos of the floor. With a photo booth, I can guarantee there will be some top-quality, entertaining snaps of your guests, and your guests will have a load of fun in the process.
Photography is all about the lighting and this doesn't change with a photo booth! With the help of studio strobes, the images pop off the page, capturing the moment of action in amazing, sharp detail. You won't have to worry about focus or anyone moving – the photos come out crisp and sharp with every press of the pedal. The files are high enough quality that anyone who wants to frame their embarrassment can get their photo printed.
Below is a small sample the Images from just one wedding!
Feel free to click any of the images to see them full screen!
It's really easy!
It's really easy!
It's really easy! Three easy steps:
It really is that simple. Once the booth is set up it runs itself all night, giving me plenty of time to continue capturing the rest of your day.
All images taken that night (except for the not safe for work ones) get uploaded online for you and your guests to share, tag, download and print! All without watermarks, logos or any annoying text - you get to use your images the way you want to.
A space around the size of a car parking space (5m by 2.5m).
A table for all the hats, glasses and other props I bring with me.
A plug nearby so I can power everything.
A gaggle of guests to use it!
Setting up and breaking down takes just 30 minutes.

FXCM Review Forex Brokers Reviews & Ratings
The most welcomed way of examining a new field is reading and getting as much information as possible. You might want to make a withdrawal to cover an emergency but it is very likely the broker won't let you do it. It is in their best interests to keep your capital in your account. Besides the basic concepts of Forex trading, some of the topics covered include trading tools and terms such as leverage, margin trading, lots and pips. One potentially successful forex trading strategy is to buy breakouts to the upside from a trading range and to sell breakouts to the downside. This keeps the spread tight, which is one of your biggest expenses as a trader, and allows you to also profit from spreads as well – if they choose to news trade.
It is true that the forex market is open 24 hours a day, but that doesn't mean the market is active and worth trading for the entire day. If you are looking for the best UK Fx brokers and US ECN Forex brokers list then you can visit Top 10 Forex brokers in the world article wrote by ForexSQ team and choose the Top ECN Forex brokers from the list. Leave your feedback on our website and help determine the most reliable forex broker.
Forex trading also provides a medium for speculation, which works to add deeper liquidity to the market, making exchange rates less volatile. In addition to above mentioned work of E. L.

Forex trading – also referred to as FX, currency trading, or currency trade – is the buying, selling and exchanging of currencies in the foreign exchange market. Fully 80% of trades in the currency market are speculative in nature, put on by large financial institutions, multibillion dollar hedge funds and even individuals who want to express their opinions on the economic and geopolitical events of the day. Moreover, some forex traders offer more than one platform, and each of them may include different elements. Whether you're a full-time trader looking to make a living or a part-time trader looking to make some extra money, the foreign exchange (forex) market has what you desire—the potential to make sizeable profits and 24/7 accessibility. Razor account – This is ECN broker account with commission AU$3.5 per $100.000 traded. Its illegal because so far RBI restricted to trade in any kind of overseas margin trading segment.
Because there are fewer currencies in the world than stocks and commodities to trade, many believe that Forex trading is an easy alternative to investing—it isn't. According to some of the Forex articles we've been reading, as many as 95% of Forex brokers currently offer this trading platform. The currency reflects the strength of its corresponding economy, which is affected by a wide variety of factors, such as inflation and the state of politics and the economy. If I have left any popular books off my list, this does not mean that I don't recommend those books – this is purely a personal list of my top 10 favourite trading books. If you think that trend will continue, you could make a forex trade by selling the Chinese currency against another currency, say, the US dollar.
These ratings can be done by both real traders, who are customers of specific platforms and who discuss them in forums, or by experts, who have the necessary qualities and experience to comment on the official trading websites.

Alzheimers nutrition can be tricky. Which stage of Alzheimer's Disease your family member is in will determine how difficult this task will be. The early stage usually is not too difficult. Their eating behaviors and appetite are about the same as they were before the disease.
Your problems will begin to surface in the middle stage of the disease. The appetite will decrease. They will forget to eat. Their coordination will become increasingly worse and they will have trouble feeding themselves. There are several things you can do to help them get enough to eat & drink. Many people find it is better to have 5 or 6 small meals a day, instead of the usual 3 we are used to. Finger foods are easier for them to manage. Now is the time to begin the health shakes and a daily vitamin if you have not already done so.
Hydration can become a problem which can lead to health issues. You will need to make sure they are getting enough to drink. The recommended amount is 8-10 glasses of fluids a day. Keep an eye on their urine output. If they are not going to the bathroom several times a day they may be getting dehydrated. Another sign of dehydration is dark urine with a strong odor. (A strong foul odor can mean a urinary infection and should be checked by a doctor). A urine infection in older people can wreak havoc! They can have personality changes, quit eating, begin sleeping more, begin falling, or just appear sick. If something is just not right and you can't put your finger on it have them checked for a urinary infection.
As they move from the middle stage to the late stage, alzheimers nutrition becomes a bigger issue. Getting them to eat will become harder and harder. Some people refuse to open their mouth and let anyone feed them. At some point your physician may suggest a feeding tube. This is not a decision to make lightly. If your family member is still in the early stage, please address this with them now! Most people do not want their life prolonged by a feeding tube. I believe that quality of life is more important than the quantity of life. It is very important to know your loved ones wishes on this subject and that you respect their wishes when the time comes.

Let's follow the money abeg
The President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government of Nigeria has announced it is assisting Oyo state government in revitalizing the state's primary healthcare system with the sum of US$1.5 million which is more than NGN500 million if you consider the current exchange rate of the dollar to naira.
This is a huge sum of money that can significantly improve rural healthcare in the state – that is if it is judiciously utilised and not for other purposes.
This development was revealed by the minister of state for health, Osagie Ehanire. Speaking over the weekend, the minister said the Federal Government was determined to revamp 10, 000 Primary Health Care (PHC) Centres across the nation.
According to him, the decision was taken in order to meet the healthcare needs of rural dwellers.
He explained that every political ward in the 774 local council areas would have a centre, with a view to reducing maternal and infant mortality.
The idea is also to ensure that there is no over stretching of facilities and manpower at the secondary and tertiary health institutions in the country.
Ehanire said each of the 36 states would get the sum of $1.5 million to drive the revitalisation, stressing, a total of $500 million has been borrowed to boost the healthcare delivery in the country.
He urged doctors and other healthcare workers to show commitment to growth, while lamenting the incessant strikes in the health sector.
The minister reiterated, "There must be enough commitment to develop the health sector. All the problems about utilities are largely due to management challenges."
He said the need for total commitment is reinforced by the fact that, doctors do not run hospitals only. They need the support of nurses, other health professionals and managers.
Ehanire denounced the increase in what he described as medical tourism, stating that industrial disharmony and unhealthy rivalry among healthcare professionals are inimical to growth and development.

Prepare the Soil
Before the journey to lean can begin, the organization must engage in a variety of preparatory activities. These include not only mapping the current and future state and developing the business case for future action, but establishing a Charter, which serves as a roadmap for implementation and defines the roles and responsibilities of those navigating the path to lean. In addition, preparation focuses on creating a vision and beginning work with leadership to assure commitment, alignment and action toward the future state.
The focus of the first phase is to highlight and recognize instability, so that problem solving can begin. The emphasis is in establishing supervisory authority, instilling a sense of urgency to solve problems, and creating a visual workplace so that those problems become visible. By the close of this phase, the organization must have the ability to see instability, and the skill and knowledge to react to it appropriately.
Continuous Flow
In this phase, the objective is to create continuous, unstopping movement from task to task. Flow is typically interrupted by equipment, process or material. Therefore, each of these elements is examined, and tools are developed to overcome those interruptions. At the close of this phase, processes should flow from task to task, at their natural rate.
Synchronous Production
The objective of this phase is to adjust the flow of processes to the rate of customer demand. Work is redistributed so that each process is completed within this rate, and as work is rebalanced, each task within the process is documented into a standard. Then, from that time forward, the visual representation of that process is used to compare the actual to the standard.
Pull Systems
Once the process flows at the rate of customer demand, the next objective is to pull the product through the various processes, while pulling material from suppliers. This phase is focused on maintaining smooth and even flow, but to do so by pulling production from process to process, where only those parts just necessary for the next production process are at the ready. This, in turn, sets the requirement for the suppliers to provide material at the rate of its actual use.
Level Production
Once the organization is capable of producing at the rate of customer demand, the next stage of improvement is reached by focusing upon the way production is scheduled. The objective is to build product in the exact sequence ordered, leveled in volume, mix and sequence, over a fixed period and equal to customer demand. In this final phase, the organization encounters the greatest challenge to reduce the time from order to completion. Success results in shorter lead time and greater flexibility in meeting customer demands.


text: After a relatively slow winter, I'm pleased to start the new year w/ a bang. Just a month ago, we began a correspondence w/ Mr. Dario Casali, a member of the Valve team who did both Goldrush and Badwater. We drew up a list of questions, and passed them along. http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=4455 As you may have guessed by this point, we received a reply today, and a rather extensive one at that. As a representative of TF2M, the big things I take away are 1. He answered our non-serious questions in good stride. and 2. He specifically asked us if there was anything else we would like. Which means that if you've thought of any new questions, we can sneak them in; http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=4454 Without further ado. Sorry it took so long to get this done, I took quite a bit of time of recently, what with holidays and heavy snow getting in the way! Let me know what else you'd like. Dario Mr. Casali, Here is what our community has come up with so far. We weren't sure if this is something we should be sharing on the Steam SDK forum, so right now these inquiries are only from our group. Your mapping process The most common thing that people want to know about is your development process. If that's something you can share, we would like to understand exactly what happens when you are designing a map from the ground up. I think the first two questions are best answered in the steps outlined below. Is it possible to simplify this development process into bullet points for general reference? 1) What gameplay type should the map be? a. Which gameplay type is most popular? b. Is any gameplay type under-represented? c. Do we want to create a new gameplay type? 2) Initial map blocking phase. If the gameplay is new, code will be written in this phase. a. To begin with I build large gray-textured brushes on the 64 grid to build a rough layout of the map. b. I use models/props_farm/doorframe001a.mdl as a doorway reference and models/props_2fort/window004d.mdl as a window reference. c. I place doorways as access points, windows as visual portals and use 256 or 320 as the major height variants between ground levels. d. Once a basic flow is layout is done, I decide where the spawn rooms will be. I usually just have a large brush with models/props_gameplay/door_slide_large_dynamic.mdl on the front where the exit will be. e. I will place prop_ragdolls at points that I think each class will function within the game. This helps me in several ways. It allows me to get a good sense of scale, and it also allows me to start picturing how the map might be played by each class. I always want each class to have ways to enjoy the map, and using these props at this point in the production process ensures that I don't leave anyone out. f. I place prop_dynamics with the model of models/buildables/sentry3.mdl at points that I want to be defence positions. I can visusalise each sentry's range by giving the prop a fade distance of 1100. When you select the prop, it'll have a yellow sphere around it giving you a precise picture of how effective the gun will be, and which points it can be out-ranged. g. I pay particular attention to flow. I like to minimize the number of turns players have to make on their path through the level. The flow through a map should be as simplified and intuitive as it can be. Paths should only be as convoluted as they need to be for vis reasons, or deliberate path elongation for balance reasons. 3) Initial playtesting phase – I like to start collecting playtesting data as soon as the initial blocking phase is complete. The map should have signs, and fully functioning entities before the first playtest. Use as few details as you can in this period, because it allows you to make adjustments to the level very quickly. It also means you can make major adjustments if necessary without throwing out a lot of detail work. 4) Continue to playtest! Once the changes made to the map are getting smaller and smaller, the artist can begin to work on the map. Usually there will be some high-level art concept defined at the beginning of the process, but this is not essential. 5) When the art is done, we playtest continually to find exploits or bugs in the map. Clip brushes are used to smooth catchy edges, and to prevent players from getting to areas they we don't want them in. 6) Finishing touches are added like cubemaps, soundscapes, HUD messages etc. 7) Rlease! How many people are usually working on 1 map? We usually have one level designer and one or two artists working on it. How closely do you work with the people doing textures and models? And what program do they mainly use for TF2 artwork, and specifically textures? I work closely with the art guys throughout the process to get the art asset production pipeline working in parallel. Once the assets come online, they are integrated immediately so the artist can have feedback on his work. I believe photoshop is the preferred software for making materials. What compile settings do you use for your maps? i.e. soft shadows, hdr, etc. We use VRAD -staticproppolys -staticproplighting –textureshadows –both. Always use VVIS without the –fast option. What means does Valve utilize to test maps for balance? i.e. How do you figure out the number of seconds to adjust respawn time when a cp is taken? The way I balanced Badwater Basin was to time the average respawn + travel time of each team to meet at a predetermined point of neutrality. That way I can tell where the threshold of control will be and balance that threshold to guarantee both teams have a somewhat equal chance of winning. One example of this is the final capture point in Badwater. The point of neutrality is just around the corner to the final area. That is the point at which a blue and a red demoman would meet up if they died at the same moment, respawned, and ran toward each other. Can we see developer-level paintovers of more of your maps, a la the beta Hydro + paintover present in one of your powerpoints? I'm not familiar with paint overs! When do you determine a map is finished? Unlike the rest of us, VALVe is able to update maps if an issue occurs. How helpful is this when deciding if a project is done or not? When a map is free of obvious defects and exploits and has been determined to be fairly balanced, we release it. Upon release we monitor the forums and play the map on public servers and collect a list of post shipping fixes. This usually results in an update of the map a few weeks after the initial release. We don't like to release too many updates to a map because of the high cost of mandatory downloading TF players have to endure. General Inquiries Which of the current maps was most challenging to develop? It's always most challenging to develop a map that is a new gameplay type. It takes time to experiment with different ideas as the concept takes shape. It takes a lot of playtesting and a lot of theoretical postulation. What kind of alternatives were considered to the Alpine environment? Is it common for level design ideas and layouts to get traded in between different game development teams during the design process? IE: A design idea that turned out not to work so well for Episode 2 having made it's way into Team Fortress or Portal. This hasn't directly happened yet to my knowledge. In many cases we take lessons and concepts we have learned from one product and integrate it into another, but this is not often a level design thing. In L4D some aspects of TF were integrated into versus mode – like the 20 seconds respawn time. Since most displacements are natural cliffs and are relatively simple to understand, can you tell us how you created the satellite dish in Hydro? This dish was created by building an 8 sided arch with brush edges all at 1:2 grid angles. Once turned into displacements, the whole thing was smoothed using the subdivide command. Because all the edges were on the 1:2 grid, holes could be cut in them where the steps are. Do you have a favorite game type that you enjoy mapping for or playing? Personally I love the Payload maps, but then I'm biased since Goldrush and Badwater Basin are the only TF2 map types I've made! How have the ways the community received your maps fulfilled your expectations? How have they surprised you? I have been very happy with how the maps have been received. There are many Goldrush and Badwater 24/7 servers, like the Q clan servers. I play on those a lot. What do you think is the coolest idea you've come up with while mapping, and did it end up in the final version? I really like the concept of the cart that you've been pushing through the whole level finally tipping into the big pit and blowing everything up. I think it makes for a very satisfying conclusion! Everything should end with an explosion! You have shown that you are willing to also include maps with more experimental gametypes like cp_steel in your community map pack. How far would you be willing to take this? Would you include a map with a new prefix and game type if it met your standards for quality? Absolutely! We are always on the lookout for fun new TF2 maps. If they are new gameplay types, even better! On behalf of everyone at TF2Maps.net, thank you again for taking time to speak with the community. Everyone here really wants to know how the pros do it, so having some of our questions answered really means a lot us.

Again, let me state this very clearly: Resurrection Church is not closing – but lets be real it's "on the table".
Every parish in the diocese is currently engaged in a strategic planning process with the bishop. The "Christ Jesus, Our Hope – Diocesan Strategic Planning for Parishes" plan is to evaluate the current status of local parishes for the long term stability of the church. Meaning… closings of churches are "on the table" – across the board – across the diocese.
All churches have very low attendance, and there seems to be a lot of different reasons for the low attendance, but according to the report some factors include "demographic shifts, small and large from the migration of many Catholics away from the Northeast to changes in ethnic groups within certain neighborhoods."
The Bishop does not want what happened to schools in their decision of closing to happen to churches. To that end, he is making everyone alert to what is going on.
Some churches cannot support themselves because they are either in poor areas and are not being supported by parishioners, so the diocese has been subsidizing them. Some are receiving up to 40%. Selling church property is not an option, Real estate will probably go back up. Some churches are very close in proximity and some have very high maintenance costs and falling apart.
The bishop has appointed a committee to go to the churches and evaluate buildings, structure, cost efficiency, maintenance. They are also looking at the "sacramental life" of the church e.g. baptisms, weddings, communions, confirmations etc.
As far as Resurrection goes, the buildings are in very good condition, and they do have the leasing of the school building as a steady source of income.

Sometimes the intensity gets so high the only thing to do is to retreat into our own world to breathe through what has, when we are able to look back on it, been one of the most transformational times we have ever lived through.
Waves of Light have been surging through our energetic fields for months, unrelenting in their intensity as they electrify our physical bodies, our life situations, our routines and habits, our thoughts and desires. Anything that is not in alignment with our true purpose is being pushed to the forefront where we have no choice other than to face what is arising and let go, let go, let go.
The push to let go has been just as relentless, considering the amount of letting go we've already done. But it makes you well and truly aware of how much baggage we really do carry around with us and how that baggage impacts on our life experience.
Some false beliefs are so entrenched in our bodies it feels like a bulldozer is needed to remove them. We try and try and try and nothing seems to work. Then we get so exhausted we give up. But that is precisely when the magic happens. When the body is worn down and the ego weakens, therein lies the opportunity for the Light Waves to enter and it's become so clearly apparent these past few months that the only thing to shift deeply stuck energy is High Frequency Light.
It obliterates it in a nano second and when it does the body soars to the highest levels of bliss imaginable.
But something palpable is happening now as we enter the annual Lion's Gate, one of the most powerful energy portals I've experienced over the years which peaks on 8.8.
As Meg Benedicte writes, the Lion's Gate occurs when Earth aligns with the Sirius star system and the Galactic Centre, creating a harmonious portal that unites matter and anti-matter. It is a time that awakens our DNA, activating our bodies at a deep cellular level and intensifying our already intensely activated fields. With the Sun moving into Leo, this energy can feel like the Lion's Roar, electrifying and exhilarating every cell within us as it opens up the channels to break through to the higher frequencies and receive information with ease.
With a direct link back to civilization of Ancient Egypt, with whom the Sirians were closely involved after the destruction of Atlantis, there is already a strong sense emerging of aligning with the energy of the ancients.
I'm being guided to read, learn, study and gain knowledge. To absorb at lightning speed all I can to help unlock what is hidden within. When we are directed to certain books or teachings, there is often something embedded within them that will trigger a memory, a knowing, a remembrance. Something will arise that's been long buried, bringing with it an overwhelming sense of abundant joy of having unlocked a connection we've long been searching for.
The key is to never give up and never stop believing we have the power to change our lives.
Everything is lining up now to propel us into our divine purpose, deeper into the knowledge and wisdom of our own Truth. The power of this monumental portal is immense and available to all who are embracing their own courage and consciously choosing to accept.

Following a tip about weighing eggs before cake baking I now do this every time. Eggs vary so much in weight it still surprises me.
So first of all weigh your eggs and use equivalent amounts of butter, sugar, and flour.
75g Dates (blitzed in the food processor)
2 eggs (total weight of mine were 137g)
137g butter at room temperature
137g caster sugar
137g self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp espresso coffee powder mixed with a little hot water and cooled
1. Cream the butter and sugar.
2. Add the eggs, flour and baking powder and mix.
3. Mix in the blitzed dates and the coffee liquid.
4. Spoon into a prepared loaf tin (I use paper liners)
5. Bake at 180 degrees C or GM 4 for about 35 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the cake comes out cleanly.
6. When cool top with a thick mixture of icing sugar mixed with a cooled mixture of 1 tsp espresso powder and 1 tbsp hot water.
