Waco - The line snaked all the way out of the service area, across the lobby, past the post office boxes, and out the door of the U.S. Post Office on Wooded Acres in driving rains that poured out of leaden skies Wednesday.
Noon time crowds waited patiently as one postal worker filled a station at the counter inside, patiently weighing parcels, applying postage and ignoring the fact that he was utterly alone to service the demands of the year's biggest holiday rush.
In fact, the throng of more than a hundred wet, miserable, harrassed postal patrons stood and watched as he measured with a tape measure the girth and length of a parcel, carefully jotting down the figures.
Three times.
He did it three times.
Beside him, a half dozen work stations sat idle, piled high with such items of holiday cheer as fruitcakes and plates of cookies wrapped in colorful packages.
Some kind of dahkine look-see pidgin, blalah. What means this?
Now comes the revelation: It's all about the insurance.
Very interesting, no?
In an effort to eliminate $5.5 billion in annual payments to pre-fund retirement health benefits 75 years into the future, a majority Republican U.S. House of Representatives is following the lead of Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, who is already cutting staff by attrition.
They propose to close 3,700 local post offices, 200 mail processing plants, and lay off 120,000 workers in addition to eliminating the legislation that requires Congress to fund postal workers' retirement health benefits 75 years into the future at the cost of $5.5 billion per year.
The cause for the crunch is falling volumes of mail in a snail mail system that has lost out to e-mail, cybermarketing and a reduction of direct mail catlogs and marketing schemes.
Transportation costs for trucking paper to printing plants, shipping finished product to bulk mailing facilities, and fuel surcharge pass-through costs to patrons alone has dented the failing postal system's bottom line, fractured its cost effectivity, and made unfeasible the massive hemorrhaging of red ink for the past 40 years.
Merry Christmas. Ho. Ho. Ho.

There is a large variety of cushions available on the market today, but it is quite simple of how to narrow down the right cushion for you. The main features one has to keep in mind when choosing a cushion is Positioning, Balance, Pressure management, function and Comfort.
Client positioning is important so as to aid both in comfort and as a major function of the cushion. The cushion should provide a stable base so as to ensure stability for the muscle structure and reduce pressure off the base of the spine. Also the cushion should aid in the alignment of the spine in doing so decreasing the effects of poor spinal posture.
A number of cushion designs and materials have been created over the years so as to aid in the different needs of patients. Most cushions also come complete with a bi-elastic cover which is waterproof and air permeable.
Foam Cushions:
Foam cushions are the entry level of cushions and are used for patients who have little discomfort while sitting and/or have a low risk of pressure sores. A variety of egg shell foam cushions and propads are available. These types of cushions relief pressure and enhance circulation.
Gel and Foam Cushions:
Gel and Foam Cushions can range in protection from medium to very high risk of pressure sores according to the composition and use of materials. Mainly used for patients who spend a long period of time sitting down, the gel and foam cushion has been proven to aid posture, aid in pressure relief while providing a high level of comfort. The price of the cushion depends on the severity and needs of the patient; therefore it is advised to seek advice from a therapist or doctor before purchasing one of these cushions. Pouches filled with gel are the best choice together with extra wedges to help you with good posture and positioning.
Air Cushions:
Air cushions are at the top of the chain when it comes to cushioning systems. Through their unique fill of air cells they provide maximum pressure relief and comfort while aiding persons who have pelvic or spinal dis-alignment or disorders (such as Scoliosis or Spina Bifida). The cells inside can be moved displaced so as to cushion the areas which are most prone to pressure sores. The disadvantage of these cushions is that one has to be careful not to puncture the cushion.

text: Cape Town - With less than a week to go until the first ball of the ICC Champions Trophy is bowled, former West Indies captain Brian Lara has tipped England to lift the trophy as he helped The Prince of Wales launch the tournament.The tournament kicks off on June 1 in England and Wales, with fixtures taking place at Edgbaston, The Cardiff Wales Stadium and The Oval, before the final on June 18.Alongside fellow cricket legends Jonathan Trott, Kumar Sangakkara and Azhar Mahmood, Prince Charles and Lara met children from eight Lambeth schools, with each school representing a nation participating in the ICC Champions Trophy.Receiving the trophy from tournament director Steve Elworthy, Prince Charles officially presented it to David Richardson, chief executive of the ICC, to launch the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy.And while disappointed not to be watching the West Indies in action at this year's tournament, Lara – who led his country to ICC Champions Trophy glory in 2004 – insists England have what it takes to go all the way on home soil."The ICC Champions Trophy was always one of the high points of my career, especially playing in the final at The Oval in 2004," said Lara."I understand that this year's tournament is going to be bigger and better than ever, so it's going to be an awesome experience for the fans and us former cricketers to see who is going to lift the trophy."The Champions Trophy is so special to me. During my reign as captain, or even just as a West Indies cricketer, we didn't have many trophies to celebrate, but I clearly remember what happened at The Oval on a dim September evening."It's one of the most unbelievable experiences playing at this tournament. We came off the back of some really bad Test cricket, so to still be able to boast about it 13 years later is great."I think in these conditions, England will be my firm favourites. After losing out to the West Indies in the Twenty20 World Cup, you look at the team now and they have some exciting players."England, in the past, would have maybe an Ian Botham or a [Andrew] Flintoff, but now you can look at the entire team and it's very one-day cricket oriented."Today, you look at the England team and you've got players playing in the IPL, and players who are astonishing with both the bat and ball."England will kick off the ICC Champions Trophy against Bangladesh at The Oval, hoping to make amends for their 2013 campaign in which they lost out to India in the final by five runs.Former England batsman Trott was a member of that squad who just missed out on success at Edgbaston, but, like Lara, is confident the 2017 team can right the wrongs of years gone by."It would have been so nice to have won the final in 2013, I still have a few nightmares about that, but hopefully this team can go all the way," he said."I remember there being such a great vibe in 2013. The English crowds are so loud and can be intimidating."England have got the home advantage and they can use that, but there are some good teams around the world in great form, so it's going to be a really interesting competition."England have been playing some really good cricket both home and away, but I don't necessarily think there's much pressure on them."There's perhaps a feeling that it's about time to win a one-day tournament, which would be very nice, and they have been going well in the T20 competition as well. They'll be going into the Champions Trophy with some good form and some good momentum."

Golf Links, Ghaziabad
Location: Golf Links, Ghaziabad
Located in Ghaziabad, this club is a part of a residential township, whose architecture, interior design and landscape design was all part of the scope. This club is planned in a different way, where the visitor moves from top to bottom, entering the ground floor first and then going down to the basement, located in a 5 m deep ditch. This land sunken by 5 mts greets the visitors with surprise as its not visible at the entry but is navigated as one moves forward.

The first time I told a guy I loved him, I was 19. He was a sweet kid but very wrong for me. Passionate about beer bongs, didn't like to sit still, had a knack for making innocuous expressions sexual. I was pretty sure we were going to get married.
One day we were laying on his bed and I was overcome with the desire to tell him I loved him. It had been about three months since we'd put a name on us, which I privately deemed long enough, and "Dancing in the Moonlight" was playing in the background. After concluding the song would work for our imminent first dance, I cupped my shaky hand around his right ear and did it.
"I'm in love with you," I whispered, five-year-old style.
"I love you, too," he said, throwing me for a loop with the format change.
I remember a deep thrill running through me. I couldn't wait to say it again. We stayed together for another year and a half, barring a two-month break he initiated due to, "loving me too much and not being ready."
The next time I fell in love, the declaration of this fact wasn't so different. About three months into defining it, I told him I loved him and he said it back. We were so excited and in love. He was much older than me, a comedian on Twitter (we met at a Tweetup, isn't that hip?); our feelings for each other must have been at least partially powered by the drama of our unlikely bond. My entire family almost disowned me for dating him and we broke up six months later.
The third time I fell in love, I said it first again, around six weeks into making it official. We were laying on a dock when it occurred to me (I'm such a mush), and then sitting on my bed when it made its way out of my mouth. He said it back right away and we were giddy. Our new love felt so urgent, and then it morphed, over many years, into something different, much deeper. And then we let it go.
I'm such a freak for love. I fall fast, which I think is a nice thing. But when I think back on each of my first I love yous, I can't help but feel a little cynical. Now that I'm older, a little love-worn and years into my habit of intellectualizing the charm out of everything, I'm not sure I'll ever be quick to say it again.
The politics of "I love you" — what a terrible way to put it — came up in the Man Repeller office the other day. We started recalling our first times and most recent times and the stories were hilarious and touching, really. And each came with its own unique form of baggage — obligation, awkwardness, unintended pressure. Maybe it's unavoidable, the nifty little combo-pack of thrill and nerve that accompany the words.
When have you said "I love you?" Did you feel like a kid with stars in your eyes? Like a sensible adult? If you said it too fast, did that cheapen it? If you waited too long, was that weird? How soon is too soon? I HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS. Impart your wisdom below, please.

St. Louis (AFP) - Sitting on a couch watching the Masters on television with an injured left wrist, Brooks Koepka never dreamed he would win two majors this year, much less battle his boyhood idols.
But the 28-year-old American did just that, defending his title at the US Open in June and taking his third major crown Sunday at the PGA Championship by two strokes over Tiger Woods.
"When I look at what I've done in the past two months, it's incredible," Koepka said.
"Looking where I was, sitting on my couch watching the Masters, to think I would do this, I would have laughed at you and told you there was no way, no chance. I can't even believe it."
As impressive as his long drives was Koepka's coolness under pressure, a composure that has become a trademark.
"When I show up to the majors I'm very focused, very disciplined," he said. "For some reason the majors get my attention. When you're firing at flags you have to be calm and focus on every shot."
To battle Woods and 2013 Masters winner Adam Scott, an Australian who took third, was a dream for Koepka, who idolized both in his youth.
"To duel it out with them, it's pretty neat. I don't think I ever dreamed of that situation that I was in," Koepka said. "It really is surreal."
Woods was impressed with Koepka's skill.
"It's tough to beat when the guy hits it 340 (yards) down the middle," Woods said of Koepka. "When a guy's doing that and hitting it straight and as good a putter as he is, it's tough to beat."
Scott sees how Koepka handles himself in the biggest moments.
"What has been interesting to watch is how much of a big time player he is," Scott said. "I'd just keep doing what he's doing because he's showing up at the right moments in the biggest events. He's got that mindset. There's something inside his brain that makes him believe that's what he's destined to do."
Koepka gets into a routine and keeps swing coach Claude Harmon III, his chef and a physiotherapist near during majors.
"He has a unique ability on these really intense weeks to be the calmest he is all year," Harmon said. "Brooks is a creature of habit. He enjoys keeping the same guys around him. He likes the routine. That's one reason he's so successful. He's able to keep things normal. He doesn't get too high. He doesn't get too low."
He admits being down when injured but adds, "I've never been more focused, more driven, more excited to play."
Koepka has won three majors in 14 months, the fastest such run since Ireland's Padraig Harrington took the 2007 British Open and 2008 British Open and PGA.
- 'One of the best shots' -
Koepka was most proud of a 247-yard tee shot to six feet that set up a birdie at the par-3 16th hole.
"I hit a laser right at the flag," he said. "That will probably go down as probably one of the best shots I've ever hit under pressure."
And he felt pressure as the roars for Woods reverberated across the course.
"You could hear a different roar like every 30 seconds, so we knew what was going on," Koepka said. "It's pretty obvious when Tiger makes a birdie. I'm sure everyone is rooting for him.
"I was very impressed with the way I hung in there. But to hear some of these roars, I can't even begin to tell you."
Even so, it didn't rock Koepka's indomitable self confidence.
"I knew even when everybody was making that charge, if I just hung in there, made one good shot at a time, kept it rolling, I was going to have a chance to separate myself," Koepka said. "And that finally came."

World cup 2018: Senegal lost to Croatia in Warm-up Match
London, June 9, 2018, (AltAfrika) – Croatia fought back from a goal down to end their World Cup preparations with a 2-1 victory over Senegal in Osijek.
Hoffenheim forward Andrej Kramaric netted the winning goal after being set up by captain Luka Modric.
Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic had cancelled out Ismaila Sarr's 48th-minute opener with a heavily deflected free-kick just after the hour mark.
The lively Sadio Mane missed a late chance to level for Senegal when he struck the post.
Senegal, unbeaten in their World Cup qualifying campaign, kept the home crowd quiet until Kramaric sparked the hosts into life.
Croatia face Nigeria in their opening World Cup Group D match on June 16, before facing Argentina and Iceland.
Senegal begin their Group H campaign against Poland on June 19, then meet Japan and Colombia.

SaaS Customer Service Essentials
We believe that to compete in the SaaS vertical today and in the future, you have to build an organization that can create a product, customers are always in love with, and also gets high retention from them (Hiten Shah). And to continue, creating a product is the easier part. Customer "wow" factor comes from customer service and an excellent one at that. Saas customer service is not as easy as it sounds.
This is exactly why SaaS companies cannot simply afford to provide average customer service. The competition is immense; to sustain and grow, you need to display a strong commitment towards providing value and delivering a superior customer service experience. This will not only help retain customers but attract new ones as well.
Delivering a superior customer experience is not easy. The following tips will help you get started and ensure that customers won't slip through your fingers.
1. Always be honest with your customers
When you run a SaaS business, you are bound to encounter problems or make mistakes – bugs, incompatibility, server issues, etc. Obviously, the customers will feel angry and frustrated.
But that doesn't mean they will switch to your competitors immediately. Customers are sensible and more understanding than that. You need to be transparent: promptly answer their questions, reassure them, and make sure you resolve the problem within a reasonable time.
Customers will switch if you don't handle the problem in a responsible manner – like being reluctant to admit the mistake, or dismissing their claims, or giving them incorrect information.
Apple has a dedicated page which shows the status of their services – whether any of them are down or if they have identified an issue with any of them or if a reported problem has been resolved. Additionally, it gives users a heads up on any scheduled maintenance that could cause issues.
2. Don't wait for customers to ask questions
Let's look at a couple statistics relevant to this point:
- Only 1 out of 26 unhappy customers complain. The rest churn.
- A typical business hears from a mere 4 percent of its dissatisfied customers.
If you want to deliver a stand-out customer experience, merely responding to customer queries won't be enough. It is the most basic of expectations a customer has when they subscribe to a SaaS product/service. You need to go above and beyond if you wish to retain your customers.
This is why more businesses need to adopt a proactive approach to Saas customer service. It will help you identify and resolve customer issues before they snowball into bigger problems. Not only does this shows that you are considerate, but you are saving customer's time too.
In order to adopt a proactive approach to customer service, you should start:
- Collecting customer feedback actively, and make sure you act upon it.
- Regularly monitor user activity.
3. Automation should not replace personalization
There is no denying that automation has helped SaaS businesses more efficient, from lead nurturing to engaging with your customers. But at what cost?
SaaS businesses often use automation to tackle customer issues. Things go wrong when these systems fail to identify situations which need human intervention.
There may be several personalization options within the automated system itself, but, nothing can replace a human being who actually understands the emotions behind the screen.
Companies should use automation platforms to monitor and report problems, and not to communicate with people. When your customers want to seek help or convey their problems to you, make sure they have easy access to your help desk, phone, or live chat.
4. Always be ready to help your customers
If you don't help your customers when they need it, you will probably lose the customer forever. You may have your reasons to do so – it might be against company policies, terms, and conditions, etc, but, this will create a very bad reputation for your business.
Remember, dissatisfied customers will talk to a lot more than when they are satisfied!
Few tips to avoid such situations are:
- Never try to shift blame onto your customers.
- If you are not trained or equipped to solve the problem, transfer the call or assign the ticket to someone who is capable, immediately.
- If there is no way your company can help them – take the time to explain clearly why you can't/won't do it, and offer suggestions and alternatives.
- Never question customers intentions or their perception of your product.
5. Maintain consistency
According to Forrester Research, "70% of CMO's did not list retention as a top priority." This is the reason why many SaaS companies act indifferently after you become a paid customer. They are too focused on customer acquisition that they end up ignoring existing customers.
It is a very short-sighted approach. These stats will further confirm this point:
- Increasing customer retention by just 5 percent boosts profits by 25 to 95 percent.
- 68 percent of customers abandon companies because of poor customer services.
- There's a 5-20 percent chance of converting a new prospect. But, in the case of existing customers, you have a 60-70 percent chance of conversion.
The best way to improve retention is by being consistent. Don't make unrealistic claims, be it the customer support team or the sales team. You can under promise and over deliver, but never over promise and under deliver. Customers will end up feeling cheated.
Bottom line
At the end of the day, founders and CEOs of SaaS companies need to give more importance to customer retention. They should make sure that strategies are framed with the existing customers in mind. Then, educate and empower Saas customer service teams to handle the customer queries and complaints effectively.
Authenticity, empathy, and promptness, these are three key attributes a support team should develop in order to build a long-term relationship with customers.

United States: Green Home Construction Commences at First Florida Hemcrete Project

American Lime Technology, the North American leader in sustainable hemp and lime-based green building construction materials is proud to announce construction is underway at the first green home in Florida utilizing Tradical Hemcrete.
By PRWeb
American Lime Technology, the North American leader in sustainable hemp and lime-based green building construction materials is proud to announce construction is underway at the first green home in Florida utilizing Tradical Hemcrete.
Located just blocks from the coast, this green home will offer extraordinary benefits to occupant health, comfort, fire resistance, pest resistance, sustainability and energy consumption, as well as protect its occupants from Hurricane force winds. With a design typical of single family homes in Florida, this house is subtle, practical and quietly makes a bold statement about green construction for mainstream consumers.
Hemp and lime-based binder are cast over a largely conventional wood frame. Lime render (think breathable stucco without portland cement) exterior finish will be directly applied to the Hemcrete walls. The interior of the Hemcrete walls will be a coated with a thin layer of breathable natural hydraulic lime plaster that will allow the beautiful organic hemp aggregate texture to show through. The plaster will be finished with a limewash color coat.
The developer making this project a reality is Bob Clayton, a retired mechanical engineer with a deep interest in creating awareness of sustainable building technologies. This green building is not intended as a one-of-a-kind project, it will be available for sale. The home is a prototype (designed in typical Florida ranch style) showcase for affordable green home construction projects planned across the state.
Wall and ceiling materials including the Hemcrete are hygroscopic, fire-proof, and breathable. The exclusive use of lime and natural minerals in the building envelope materials ensures that no VOCs will off-gas and pests will find the wall absolutely unappealing. All construction will comply with the currently adopted Florida Building Code 2007 with Florida Building Code Supplements 2009 as well as Florida Fire Prevention Code 2007. In addition the house is designed to withstand wind speeds of 123 MPH.
Mario Machnicki, president and CEO of American Lime Technology will visit the construction site Tuesday August 14, 2012 to review construction progress with the developer, general contractor and architect. His visit will include a demonstration of lime render and lime plaster application.
Chicago, Il based American Lime Technology offers a range of construction materials and services to support forward thinking architects, engineers and building owners in their efforts to develop sustainable high performance residential, commercial and industrial building envelopes.

While visiting Pittcon last week, I talked with a colleague who now works for USP. When I complained about the reliability of the written USP method, his (paraphrased) comment was,
"the USP method was never meant to be used. Labs are expected to develop and validate their own procedures. ... It was just published as a guide."
I was wondering if anyone else has come across this attitude, either directly, or as part of a training seminar? Certainly the method as written in USP is difficult, if not impossible, to valildate, but this is an unfortunate situation when a standard method is published but isn't expected to be actually used?
How is everyone else doing with their validation experiments? Any comments, questions, problems?
Post them here.
Comments on USP 467 From a USP Employee
While visiting Pittcon last week, I talked with a colleague who now works for USP. When I complained about the reliability of the written USP method, his (paraphrased) comment was,
My experience with USP methods is actually quite negative (unfortunately). Nevertheless I am surprised by the statement you paraphrased. I assumed that USPs were written the way they were mainly because of legacy problems: by the time a method becomes a USP method there is a good chance that there is better technology to perform a similar kind of analysis.
I can't remember which USP we were dealing with last, but it was an ELISA-like method that asked for the use of huge beads (in the order of a few millimeters in diameter). You had to bind an antibody to the beads (four or five of them in a tube) and then essentially run the ELISA-like experiment. The analysis was performed visually, with a yellowing-brown color denoting a positive signal and no color being negative (of course what you really got was shades of yellow-brown in all vials). The trick was to run controls and then compare the negatives and positives to your sample. After a lot of work and not being able to get it to work, we decided to transfer the method from these beads (which by the way could only be bought from a single source) to an ELISA plate. The results we got when the antibody was immobilized on an ELISA plate were like night and day. The experiments were a lot easier to run and the results were as clear as day. Since the USP method was vague enough we were able to use the new method and drop the old one. In addition since this work was defined by the customer, there was little resistance to perform the experiment using the new method (that worked like a charm) instead of the old method (that never worked).
I do not know how relevant this is to your applications, but at least in my experience there is room to "work around the USP" to get it validated. The USP we dealt with was literally impossible to validate. Luckily the technology involved was very simple so it was just a matter of us "updating" the protocol to what we knew works today. Having said this I can imagine that the number of USP methods that could be validated in this way is limited at best.
i'm using 467 method in residual solvents assay almost 2 year,not smooth going,very gloomy?peak area repeatability often bad?
i wonder, what's your problem in usp467 method?it may have some shortcomings,but most of it maybe reasonable,how to make some modification to be better?

On March 17th, the St. Patrick's Day shenanigans can officially begin. Especially for Boston college students, the spirit of St. Patrick's Day can be celebrated in many ways. This holiday appears to be a popular time for students in the Boston area to splurge on beer and hit up as many bars as possible. This, unfortunately, may not be possible for all students.
With due dates coming up for tests and papers while future endeavors are being explored, students from Emmanuel College appear to be stressing over balancing their social lives with school work. The academic pressures and class obligations are causing students to reconsider going out for events such as St. Patrick's Day, the day that makes inebriation a socially acceptable form of celebration.
Will Wrigley, currently a junior at Emmanuel College, says that he is, "definitely going out on St. Patrick's day since I don't have class the next day. But, if I did have class, it would probably be a different story."
Drinking before class is no longer an option for many students. And, since St. Patrick's Day is infamous for over indulging in alcohol, students will be far from able to function in class.
Some students, however, are defying this idea and find that St. Patrick's Day is a time to alleviate every day stresses from the semester.
A junior at Emmanuel College, Kirsten Pereira, said without hesitation, "of course I'm going out. I'm too stressed to not go out. St. Patrick's day is going to be my time to unwind." With a class on Friday morning, Kirsten is one of the few upperclassmen who are risking jeopardizing class commitments.
March 17th will be the day where we will see whether or not students at EC will act upon their urges to celebrate St. Patrick's Day during this stressful semester.

Reality Transurfing Trick To ALLOW Abundance (Very Powerful & Simple)
In this video I will share a simple reality transurfing technique that will enable you to allow abundance at a much greater pace.
Allowing your abundance is not as much about taking progressive action towards your goals as it is about setting clear intentions and then simply affirming your wellbeing/appreciating all the parts about your life that are already amazing.
Life is a mirror that reflects your relationship to it.
When you affirm your wellbeing and appreciate what you already have, you transform your layer of reality through that positive attitude.
Your life then reflects back to you all of the love and appreciation that you put out – giving you more to be appreciative of.
This creates an ongoing positive feedback loop of reality that continues to shift you onto more pleasant lifelines where you ideal self is living your ideal life.

A Great Way to Learn about Occupations & Build Your Professional Network
Informational Interviews are a great way to network with professionals, learn about positions that are or will become available, and/or learn about occupations you are interested in. The primary purpose of informational interviews is to learn about a job, career, business, and/or the education, training, and certification needed to do a specific job. It is not a job interview, but it is a fantastic way to develop a network that could help you find a job in the future.

Our Types of Yoga Classes
Vinyasa Flow takes dynamic yoga to a deeper level by integrating rhythmic breathing with conscious movement. As in all physical yoga, you will increase strength and flexibility - and by uniting body and breath, you'll learn to move from moment to moment with absolute awareness.
Based on Baron Baptist's series as well as a variety of other style of yoga including ashtanga and Bikram, this is a dynamic flowing sequence built around sun salutations. This empowering practice builds heat, endurance, flexibility, strength and concentration. Many adaptations possible to suit students of varying abilities. All Vinyasa Flow classes are heated to 95 degrees and are 90 minutes long.
Vinyasa Slow Flow: Vinyasa Beginner uses the same principals as a Vinyasa Flow class but at a slower pace and not as many postures. More emphasis on form and alignment (room temp 80°) 90 minutes.
Whether a first time student or an experienced yogi, this class is sure to melt away the stress of a busy life style and increase a sense of calmness and peacefulness. A variety of asana postures will be offered to gently warm and tend to your physical practice. Breathing technics to diminish distractions and assist in a more self-aware and grounded experience. Each class will conclude with a short sitting mediation. Class is 90 minutes and open to all levels.
Power Hour: Vinyasa Flow class condensed to an hour (room temp 95°)
This is a class for all levels of yoga students. We will do the fundamental asanas ( postures)which include standing, forward bends, twists, as well as breathing techniques and breath for relaxation ( Pranayama) with attention to form. We will explore the postures as well as learn their modifications . This will give begining students a strong foundation and enhance alignment for advanced practitioners. Wonderful for strengthening, toning, and increasing flexibility.
Iyengar Yoga often makes use of props, such as belts, blocks, and blankets, as aids in performing asanas (postures). The props enable students to perform the asanas correctly, minimising the risk of injury or strain, and making the postures accessible to both young and old. This upbeat class begins with a light warm up, and focus on pranayma (breath work) core sequence, posture flows and balance poses with modifications to accommodate everyone. This class is beneficial to the student looking to deepen their practice through flow, holding the postures and pranamya.
Yin yoga is a more meditative approach with a physical focus much deeper than Yang like practices. Here the practitioner is trying to access the deeper tissues such as the connective tissue and fascia and many of the postures focus on areas that encompass a joint (hips, sacrum, spine). As one ages flexibility in the joints decreases and Yin yoga is a wonderful way to maintain that flexibility, something that for many don't seem to be too concerned about until they notice it is gone. Yin offers a much deeper access to the body. It is not uncommon to see postures held for three to five minutes, even 20 minutes at a time. The time spent in these postures is much like time spent in meditation.
When we meditate we explore. When we our mindful we are cultivating and finetuning the basic human ability to be fully present. There is growing research that when you train your brain in this way, you're actually remodeling the physical structure of your brain. Jeff will offer a 6-week instructional series for beginning meditators. These classes give a good overview of mindfulness meditation practice. They include instructions, guided meditation and discussions which help students establish and sustain a daily meditation practice.

Dear members & visitors,
I hope your all looking forward to the new summer golf season at Todmorden Golf Club. Over the past few months we can reveal some further completed changes to the layout at Rive Rocks.
The 4th winter tee has now been removed with planned new winter tee being at the front of the usual 4th tee. We have now cleared some of the heather to the front of the 4th tee and revealed large boulders underneath the tee we are aiming to keep exposed as a feature.
The feedback received has been very positive on this and may I give a special thanks to Leighton Gengler for his hard work and efforts to complete the project with Nigel & Steve. Leighton is a proud sponsor of the club and a tee sign soon to be put in place on one of our tees. For any groundwork or care needed Leighton is highly recommended as he has been associated with our club for a number of years for servicing all our grounds machinery.
The 4th tee we feel now allows all ages and abilities to play the hole at its measured length ensuring enjoyment and a fair test for all.
Projects on the old 9th winter tee/ practice tee have also been completed seeing the relaying of turf from the 4th winter tee. We have utilised further the turf lifted here to lay the new 16th competition tee. We hope to have these in play by June/ July hoping with some fair weather they will bed in quickly and be to the standard needed to put them into competitive play. These projects have only been achievable through kind members donations of cash and time to allow further competitive layout options for our golf course, I would like to personally thank them again as it wouldn't be possible without them, they know who they are.
Replacement of a couple of steps to the 6th competition tee have also been arrived out due to regular wear and tear that made them tired and in need of replacement.
Our greens have had the 'dreaded' hollow tining process carried out on April 1st of which I would like to clarify a number of points on this issue as I have had many comments regarding this process.
Hollow tining/ aeration is an essential process to be carried out at Todmorden Golf club. We have superb surfaces from May until the end of October every year as a result of the way we maintain our greens which is guided by our budget, equipment owned and also demographics. The aeration carried out in November is to ensure that the greens are playable all winter hence we don't dress the greens which is down to budget and also ensuring members can play the full course through winter. I can recall only less than a handful of times we haven't played full course greens this winter which was due to snow/ hard frost.
Since I became greens chairman we have tried all ways to help provide the best greens year round including, not hollow tining for winter, not hollow tining for summer and hollowing for both.
Two years ago we changed to a none hollow tined surface for winter & summer which resulted in a disease of the greens called 'all patch'. Many of you will remember this as the greens were way below our usual standards until around July which we agree was too late.
This change wasn't a decision made by Nigel or myself but one voted on by council to try & provide greens playable all year round, also mainly to save money. The frustration of this is it wasn't a change that we thought would work nor one that we'd considered due to the risk factors of it. That winter and spring was one of the wettest we had and therefore the greens were unplayable for the majority of the winter and due to the weather bred disease in the greens as a result of not hollow tining.
Following this decision the cost of treating the greens made us worse off in terms of playing surfaces for our members but also inevitably cost us more than the process we know works every single time. Due to the attempt to try a 'different process' we have reverted back to what works for Todmorden golf club given our demographics, budget and provide us with the best greens arguably within our district.
The contractors that we use need to be booked at least a few months in advance hence we have the hollow tining booked in as late as possible to avoid clashing with the winter league which has always finished in late March usually and to give us a month to ensure they are ready for May and run through until the next treatment in early November.
We have looked at all options to maintain the greens over the past 5 years I have been greens chairman and Angus Woodhead who I took the role over from did the same. Sadly given our demographics, budget, machinery available the best way to provide us with the surfaces we have is to carry out this process every early April.
I apologise if some members feel that they believe another way works better but the evidence we have gathered proves what we do works best for the club & our resources. STRI 2 years ago assessed our greens following the none hollow tined approach which underlined the best way to maintain our greens and that's the way we now carry out our maintenance.
To clarify on micro- tining our greens like other clubs, we do not own this equipment and to have any relative effect on the surfaces throughout summer we would need to carry this process out 3/4 times over the season which we do not have the funds for to have external machinery hired in and dress the greens each time to allow for another way to maintain the greens as some might feel this would work well. Not forgetting when this gets performed it does effect the surfaces for up to a week once carried out, currently we have no issues with this as from May-the end of October we do not need to carry out any major works on the greens.
We are set for some warmer weather in the next week or two and we are praying for some rain to come with it as this will enable further growth on the course which so far has been very slow. To clarify we have been using the sprinkler systems since they were recommissioned in late March as and when we can. Due to windy conditions & cold temperatures we have used them when we have been able to get water on the greens. Lows of freezing overnight sadly haven't enabled us to use the sprinklers overnight nor pushed any promoted growth on the course. April showers and warm weather is actually what we are hoping for though so far we have had dry, windy and cold conditions.
Please have support in what we are doing at the club in regards to the course as with the changes made through new projects and given a bit of warm weather (hopefully a bit of rain) our course will be in superb condition as always come May ready for a long summer of golf ahead. Nigel and Steve give their all to the club and take great pride in our superb golf course as it's one thing we can all be proud of as it matters just as much to them if not more than us as members.
Thank you for your time & good luck in the start to our summer season at Todmorden Golf club.

As we go through our days, lots of unexpected thoughts pop up in our minds.
We hear a song, and a memory of the past comes to the surface. Or, we listen to a newscaster gab or read an article and visualize a scene, and suddenly a thought occurs to us. Our minds ponder a million little snippets that drift in and drift out.
I thought it might be fun to review some of my ponderings; topics that popped into this busy head of mine during my non-stop day.
1. This week I listened to a newscaster do a commentary on the subject of why Millennials would rather have dogs than children. I thought about this…
After all, it is a lot easier to raise a pooch than a child. And, maybe these Millennials are facing the facts of life better than we did. We just had children without sitting down and figuring out the lifestyle that would best suit us. We did not take into consideration the financial burdens of child-rearing.
These Millennials sit down and weigh 'everything.' Here are some of the reasons these young adults prefer having a dog:
1. They think the world kind of sucks now.
2. They cannot afford a child and are prudent about incurring debts.
3. Buying a home or an apartment large enough to raise children is too expensive.
4. They don't think they would make great parents.
5. They want their freedom to travel, and they even worry about their genetics.
Personally, I don't think they are crazy or selfish. I think they are wise to think about the most important decision they will ever make outside of who they choose to marry. What do YOU think? I genuinely want to know!
2. I read an article that said women over 60 are happier in the workplace than younger women.
These women are happier because a woman's mental health improves as she 'grows up.' Studies show that women in the 60+ age bracket are very happy campers unless they are beset with illness. Many are living alone and find going to work mentally stimulating and enjoyable. Thoughts?
3. Life after 100 was mentioned on television today. I knew how I would feel if, I live to have seen more than a century, because of my experiences with older women living to that age and beyond.
My mother has a beautiful friend who is 104 years old. They have dinner with their caregivers at least once a week. Though she has all of her senses, she is lonely and is in pain from ailments, and her hearing is almost negligible.
Her lifestyle is minimal; no movies or theatre, no shopping because 'where is she going' and the list goes on. Let's live it up darlings and make the most of each day. It is all about our attitudes and our curiosity. Only time will tell how long our journey may last.
4. When the earthquake struck in Indonesia, I wondered about having different kinds of survival kits in our home. I came up with this:
A survival kit for fire; meaning the right products in our home.
A survival kit for hurricanes, tornadoes, and earthquakes.
How many of you have these types of kits in your homes and cars?
5. I sent a poem to my granddaughter who had Cancer surgery, and that led me to think about how a grandmother can share her personal bout with Cancer.
Honesty shared with grands is the best policy. I would not be stoic. I would be a realist and in a heartfelt manner, explain my thoughts and feelings to my grands.
I would make my story a lesson. I would teach them the importance of being honest with their feelings, as well as the greatest takeaway… to be proactive in taking care of their health.
I would hope to share the positive and negative affects Cancer has had on my life. (Yes, there have been both!) Are you a cancer survivor? How did it change you?
6. I listened to a program on loneliness.
Our population is filled with women living alone and lonely. It is quite astounding and epidemic in proportion to those living with others.
I know some of you are alone and sad and don't know who to turn to or where to turn. If you are physically able to leave your home, your loneliness is in your control. In other words, your attitude. Everything is attitude, darlings. You know your DNA. What excites you? What interests you? What would make you feel good about yourself? Answer these questions in writing and then use your positive attitude and ACT.
Join a church or synagogue, join a charity group and help others, join a workout group, a travel group, a card group and even think about going back to school or signing up on MATCH. It is all about attitude. Not money. Focus not on what you CAN'T do and instead, choose to embrace what you CAN do.
Gotta rush, darlings. I have a FaceBook Live, a photo shoot and a pooch that has to go out! I am so busy, I am dizzy.
One more message…when you are so busy, you are dizzy or stressed to the nines, sigh first and then breathe. A deep, balancing breath, it is worth its weight in gold. I am breathing and blooming, even on the busiest of days. Join me!
P.S. If you missed my LIVE event you can watch it here.

If you work in education, particularly higher education, you're probably focused on a range of projects connected with improving learning outcomes for students, developing sustainable and cost-effective funding models for the institution, and modernizing teaching practices and business operations. Such projects may form part of a modern digital campus initiative, with investments in both physical and digital infrastructure primarily geared to student learning experiences. However, this expenditure must also support the changing nature of academic activity within the sector. Desktop virtualization will form part of your IT stack today, but it's worth considering how recent advancements in virtual desktop infrastructure could help you accelerate growth, balance priorities, and adapt to change.

The Icing on the Cake by Alison Kent is a True Vows book, which is one of the first reality-based romance series. From the back cover.~
MATCHMAKER, MAKE ME A MATCH…dot.com! An online dating service is not Michelle Snow's idea of how to find love, but when the Big 3-0 hits, Michelle decides she has nothing to lose since she hasn't brought a date home in ten years, she's professionally burned out, and her climb up the corporate ladder has come at the expense of abandoning her sweet dream: to own a boutique cupcakery.
Todd Bracken, early thirties and a successful technology consultant, isn't exactly a player after being off the market and pours himself into his dual passions of martial arts and home-sweet-home renovations. Only there's no one to come home to so he decides to give Match.com a try. Todd isn't so sure the Internet dating scene is his thing-until a message pops up in the wee hours on a weekend night: "I like your smile." Todd likes-a lot-the whole package that glides into a French bistro in Washington, D.C.
It's serious mojo-at-first-sight, but will love find its way in the digital age with a "You've Got Mail" courtship? And when Todd challenges Michelle to not only go for her dream but let him share it, will they be able to make it happen together despite obstacles more plentiful than a show of rainbow sprinkles?
Alison Kent's cutting-edge style smartly takes the contemporary pulse of love and wraps it in timeless truths as she journeys into the open hearts and secret dreams of Michelle Snow and Todd Bracken. The Icing on the Cake is a delicious treat that's as delectable as it gets!
I love reading about character's HEA (Happily Ever After), and was really excited to give HCI's new line of True Vows books a try. Alison Kent posted on facebook and twitter she had books available for review, and I jumped at the chance to read her story. I'm a big fan of romance, and Alison totally delivers as she tells Michelle and Todd's story. I knew all along this story was about a romance between two real people who met on Match.com, and even knew the outcome of the story from an article I'd seen on-line. I was still hooked from the very beginning and couldn't wait to see what happened between Michelle and Todd. We got to see romance, loss of a family member, job loss, starting up a new business, and most of all what it takes to make a relationship work.
I've been a fan of Alison Kent's for years and she once again gives her readers a beautiful romance. I fell more in love with Michelle and Todd as a couple with every page I read. I think it is amazing they have a book that tells their love story from the very beginning. Must say I'm a fan of HCI's new True Vows line and will be purchasing and reading more in this series.

The relational database was born in 1970 when E.F. Codd, a researcher at IBM, wrote a paper outlining the process of defining such a database. Since then, relational databases have grown in popularity to become the standard (Sumathi & Esakkirajan, 2007) (Churcher, 2012).
Originally, databases were flat. This means that the information was stored in one long text file, called a tab delimited file. Each entry in the tab delimited file was separated by a special character, such as a vertical bar (|). Each entry contained multiple pieces of information (fields) about a particular object or person grouped together as a record. The text file made it difficult to search for specific information or to create reports that included only certain fields from each record. An example of the file created by a flat database could be the following (shown in Box 1).
With such a file, it would be necessary to search sequentially through the entire file to gather related information, such as Lname or salary. On the contrary, a relational database allows to easily find specific information as well as to sort information based on any field and to generate reports that contain only certain fields from each record. Relational databases use tables to store information. The standard fields and records are represented as columns (fields) and rows (records) in a table.
By using a relational database, information can be quickly compared because of the arrangement of data in columns. The relational database model takes advantage of this uniformity to build new tables out of required information from existing tables. This way, it takes advantage of the relationship of similar data to increase the speed and versatility of the database.
Relational databases are created and manipulated by using a special computer language, named the Structured Query Language (SQL), which is the standard for database interoperability. SQL is the foundation for all of the popular Database Management Systems (DBMS) available today, from Access to Oracle.

No takers for industrial land in MP as new rules stump investors
Three months after the MP government notified new rules for management of industrial land and buildings, not a single allocation has taken place due to lack of clarity on lease rates.indore Updated: Jul 10, 2015 21:58 IST
Three months after the MP government notified new rules for management of industrial land and buildings, not a single allocation has taken place due to lack of clarity on lease rates.
While suggestions from the industry association were sought by the state department during the drafting of the new rules, some last minute changes were made without its knowledge.
In April 2015, the government issued a gazette notification stating that the collector's guideline would be applied for assessing the value of industrial land close to urban areas. The industry is up in arms over the move as it led to a steep hike in lease rent rates.
"Why would any industrialist pay collector's guideline rates for leasing a property? On top of that, there are development charges. Not a single industrial land has been allocated since this new rule came into effect," Dewas Industry Association president Ashok Khandelia said.
All industry associations, including Pithampur Audyogik Sangathan and Association of Industries, Madhya Pradesh, have opposed the new rule that they consider a major departure from previous norms.
The industry maintains that since the land is being leased and not sold, there is no question of paying the collector's guideline rates. Meanwhile, investors are in limbo over allocation of land in industrial hubs across the state.
Industrialists say investment on land constitutes a major chunk of the cost of setting up a unit, and the new rule has made it almost impossible for investors to do so in Madhya Pradesh.
Meanwhile, a delegation from the industry recently met senior government officials to apprise them of the situation. State industries commissioner VL Kantha Rao said the government is looking into the matter.
The state government had come out with a slew of measures to promote small and medium enterprises (SMEs) by reserving a portion of industrial land in every district. However, the new rule in turn increased lease rent rates making it unaffordable for smaller enterprises.
"The state government should clear the confusion at the earliest as a prolonged delay in fixing the lease rates will delay investments," Pithampur Audyogik Sangathan president Gautam Kothari said.
