About me

Finding the right person to talk to is hugely important to ensuring you can make the most of your counselling relationship. I would always suggest at least one assessment session.
In my practice, I hope to offer you a warm, respectful and supportive environment in which you can feel safe to talk. I follow an integrative approach to therapy. This gives me a wide variety of therapeutic models to draw from including psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, analytic and relational schools of thought.
I have worked to date for a hospice, a leading centre for short term counselling and am currently seeing clients with more complex needs in a major London mental health hospital alongside my private practice.
Please feel free to call me so that we can have an informal chat before setting up an assessment.

Castro and Trump
Castro was an autocrat. The fact he gave his brother the government, and the two of them haven't created any thriving institutions to succeed them when Raul is gone, are proofs. Poverty is intense, and Cuba is beginning to open its doors to tourism in a way which may lead to the kind of despotic oligarchy familiar in China or Russian kleptocracy. Cubans who have the opportunity to get out risk their lives on rafts to do so.
Yet Castro never became a billionaire like Putin, now reputedly the richest man on earth. Nor was he ever a mass murderer, like Pinochet and the other dictators we actually supported in Latin America, Africa and elsewhere. Our hatred of dictators has always been very selective, even under Eisenhower and Kennedy. Trump will finally detach this from any possible narrative or methodology, and will like the killers who like him, and hate those who hate him. That will not only be our foreign policy but a version will be our domestic policy as well.
Voting against themselves
Among the most poignant reading since the election has been the continuing interviews with sick people who are critically dependent on their Obamacare but who voted for Trump. Some of them did not believe he would repeal their coverage. One Trump voter interviewed actually works as a navigator helping people enroll in Obamacare, and she did not believe she would lose her job, either. Others apparently did not know what they had was Obamacare, as in Kentucky, where they were enrolled in a system called "Kynect" (but then shame if they thought they were voting to take other people's coverage away). in any event, these all seem proofs that a major segment of the electorate, large enough and strategically placed to win the electoral vote, is too desperately ignorant to function in a democracy. This has been going on for decades, but this is the election at which millions of people have wilfully handed complete control over their lives to a party that has also vowed to harm their Medicaid, Medicare and social security. Even if the Republicans don't accomplish everything on Paul Ryan's list, it seems ike something of an endgame. The Republicans finally got the electorate they have been cultivating, building, miseducating since the 1950's.
Secrecy and kitsch
All month long I send myself text messages on topics to cover in this column, and by the end of the month, some are pretty cryptic. This is one of them. Here's what I think I meant. I have been thinking a lot about how you conduct a democracy when a large number of the facts you need to know are kept secret from you. Through-out the '50's and '60's, if you believed the Official Narrative, we were fostering new democracies everywhere, while we were fact covertly supporting coups and even the murder of democratically elected presidents in Congo, Iran, Guatemala and Vietnam. On top of classic governmental secrecy classification and covert operations, we now have political covert action as well, through dark money and Citizens' United. TV ads claiming the Democrat you liked would harm your Medicare may be purchased by billionaires who themselves want to take your entitlements away. There is little information left available as to what anyone's actual agenda is; we really do live in a "post-truth" world, which means a world of lies. The product of this, which did not seem a necessary result but, now that it has happened, does not surprise me, is that the Narrative we are left with is really cheesy, pure kitsch, of which the stalest, silliest, most embarrassing example in the history of the world, aside perhaps from some Byzantine emperors whose names we have forgotten, is the Trump-Narrative, including bit parts in wrestling matches, steaks, Trump University, The Apprentice and the Presidency.
Create a creole
This was another cryptic text, but what I think I meant is that it would be a good idea now to develop a secret, colorful, nuanced protest-language so we can keep on, in the presence of the Man, talking rather freely about important things, without fear of being understood.
From the free speech manuscript I have been working on for years, from a section on creoles:
The Romany language has been accused of being a "thieves' cant" Isabel Fonseca, Bury Me Standing (New York: Vintage Books 1995) p. 13. When I edited Wikipedia, the article which was sabotaged the most with crude and ugly insults was that on the Gypsies. Vaclav Havel called the Gypsies "a litmus test not of democracy but of a civil society". p. 15 More so than the Jews, they are the ultimate outsiders, liminal, rootless, aspiring neither to assimilation or a homeland. "You will never learn our language", a Gypsy activist proudly told ethnologist Isabel Fonseca. "For every word you record in your little notebook, we have another one—a synonym, which we use and which you can never know". p. 13 One of their proverbs is: "When you are given, eat, when you are beaten, run away!" p. 35 There is a legend "about the full moon's being dragged down to earth by the sheer intensity, weight and witchery of the Romany tongue". p. 53 Some Gypsies enjoy fooling the solemn scholars who study them; in 1776, a gypsy told Jacob Bryant, an English scholar, that the Romany word for "father" was "ming", which actually means "vagina". p. 54
Rituals of shame
Immediately after the election, Trump announced that he had prevailed on the Carrier Corporation to keep some jobs in America it was planning to move to Mexico. Franklin Roosevelt or Dwight Eisenhower or even Richard Nixon would have done a victory lap with Carrier's president, presenting him as a hero for his cooperation. Trump stood up before his adorers at a rally and narrated his victory over Carrier:
I called Greg and I said, 'It's really important we have to do something because you have a lot of people leaving,'" Mr. Trump said Thursday, adding that he dismissed the CEO when Mr. Hayes responded that he had already built a new facility in Mexico. "Rent it. Sell it or knock it down. I don't care." Tedd Mann, "Carrier Will Receive $7 Million in Tax Breaks to Keep Jobs in Indiana" The Wall Street Journal December 2, 2016 http://www.wsj.com/articles/indiana-gives-7-million-in-tax-breaks-to-keep-carrier-jobs-1480608461
This is identical to a Brooklyn schoolyard ritual I remember from my childhood: a bully who humiliated someone would then brag about it to the rest of us, narrating the specifics: "And then he said...and I said...."
This just confirms what we already knew, that the new Presidency will be built on rituals of humiliation as its cornerstone; visits to Trump Tower by Mitt Romney (that disconsolate restaurant photograph!) and Ted Cruz, in the hope of receiving jobs never forthcoming, were another variation.
Smells like Fascism
People deluding themselves or trying to make a deal with power can rationalize at warp speed, but yes, my goodness, rallies before adoring cheering throngs, nad professional wrestler-type vaunts that this or that thing is "not gonna happen", and foreign policy set or stock values driven down by colorful threats or boasts all confirm that Donald Trump is the Man on Horseback.
Nazis and Cuteness
The headline of an article on the PBS website says it all: "Nazi salutes 'done in a spirit of irony and exuberance,' alt-right leader says". (This is Richard Spencer explaining the chant he led at his post-election conference of "Hail Trump! Hail our people! Hail victory!". (http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/white-nationalist/) This is a thing, a new "Nazis are cuddly" meme, of which Milo Yiannopoulis is lead killer-teddy bear, with his justification of anti-Semitism as the exuberant antics of a "mischievous, trolly generation".
Comet Ping Pong
There is a moment at which the irrationality exceeds the ability of language to describe it and we are left speechless. The feverish raft of whisperers about Clinton-sponsored pedophilia at a DC pizzeria, resulting in a man taking a semi-automatic weapon there to free the nonexistent slave children, crosses that threshold. "There all the barrel-hoops are knit, / There all the serpent-tails are bit,/There all the gyres converge in one, /There all the planets drop in the Sun".
Of course the punch-line is that the white guy with a powerful mass-murder weapon was allowed to place it peacefully on the pavement and survived the encounter, by contrast to the myriads of black men who get shot in this country reaching for wallets.
For twenty years or so I have occasionally visited snopes.com to source urban legends or to check on the truth or falsity of Internet memes. A few weeks ago, Facebook, struggling under its fake news problem, announced that it was hiring Snopes as a consultant. Then I saw a lurid article in a British tabloid, The Daily Mail, about some scandals underlying the founders' divorce and new sexual affiliations, drug use, and the like. What I believe we were witnessing was what I will now start calling the "lapidation" process, of using proxies, including trolls, hackers, Wikileaks and the press, to stone to death anyone standing in the way of power. An occasional stone may be a truth--the most lurid accusation hurled at Thomas Jefferson, that he was having sex with his slave Sally Hemings, proved to be true--but "everybody must get stoned". Truth in this environment of sharp, killing lies is merely accidental.
Putin everywhere
Vladimir Putin, reportedly now the richest man on earth, seems to have his tentacles on the left as well as the right, as Glenn Greenwald, whom I respected more than anybody, unflaggingly lays down covering fire that Putin's bad behaviors worldwide have not been proven, Julian Assange speaks of Russian openness, tolerance and diversity, Edward Snowden lives there, and everybody goes on RT propaganda television. This is a nightmare, and its getting worse.
In 1964, the Supreme Court decided New York Times v. Sullivan, which stands for the proposition that you can't sue the press into bankruptcy. In 2016, pernicious and very dangerous billionaire Peter Thiel, who has been spoken of for a Trumpian Supreme Court appointment (after all, he once practiced law for seven months), sued Gawker out of existence. Don't pay attention to what they say, but what they do.
Israel and the UN Resolution
In Edmund Wilson's To the Finland Station, there is a lovely description of a moment at which Karl Marx's ancestors detached themselves from the rabbinical tradition and attached themselves to the Enlightenment. In the air I breathed growing up, and even the Sunday school I attended at Beth Elohim, a reform synagogue, I grew up imagining that we Jews were of the Enlightenment. The only Jewish names which meant anything to me, and they were poetry, were Spinoza, Mendelsohn, Einstein, Brandeis, Cardozo, all, in my mind, poets of diversity and tolerance.
Today, the unique concurrence of events and facts which have placed Israel off limits as a subject of criticism, which have made the least disagreement with Israeli government policy towards Palestinians into "anti-Semitism", and which have led Trump's new appointment as Israeli ambassador even to characterize people like me, critics of Israel, as "Nazis", are part of a headlong flight from Enlightenment values.
In forty years, a succession of Israeli governments have paid lip service to a two state solution, without showing the least desire of, or making the least progress, towards, accomplishing it; the saddest part is that a compliant, passive, exhausted Palestinian government rules the West Bank, an ally waiting for Israel to give it a state, but unable to exert any leverage to move things along. Now forces within Netanyahu's coalition are starting, with new boldness in the Trump era, to speak of a "one state solution", which means: "We will continue to rule over Palestinians for the rest of time". The settlements proliferate, as they always have, and the Enlightenment, already badly broken, dissolves right there.
Even though it was merely a symbolic gesture, I support President Obama and Secretary Kerry in their abstention on the critical UN resolution.

question by: Lowcountry Concrete
Cell color change alert for upcoming due dates.
I have searched and found a few topics pertinent to this question, but unable to find an answer. I am trying to keep track of employee certifications and would like to create a spreadsheet that would change the cell color when the date comes to 6 months prior to expiration. Ideally, I would like an email reminder, but do not see that as an option without and add on and I have done that with no success. I know this is a simple fix, but can't figure it out

As told to Paul Little.
In 1995, I was turning 30 and I'd spent 1994 wondering what I was doing and where I was going. I'd been working for Russell McVeagh as a copyright lawyer for a couple of years and knew that was too corporate for me, so went to a smaller firm, Keegan Alexander. I was doing more court work there but it was still not really what I wanted to do. And I had also just come out of a long-term relationship, so it seemed definitely the right time to figure out what I ought to be doing.
I'd been spending a lot of time at bFM, hanging out with a lot of musicians. I did the legal advice thing, and I joined the board. Then I started acting for musicians, negotiating their contracts without even really knowing what I was doing.
At the beginning of 95, I went a bit feral. I was still at Keegan Alexander but I started abandoning corporate work and acting for more musicians. I stopped wearing a tie. My hair got longer. Then I stopped wearing a suit and turned up at work wearing jeans that were more holes than jean. I took the corporate art off the walls and replaced it with gig posters.
Logically I should have been thinking about going off and doing it on my own, but I didn't have the gumption. However, after a few months of me acting like this, the senior partner, Michael Friedlander, who I have a lot of respect for, called me into his office and didn't fire me, but suggested it might be time I did my own thing. I left there with a carload of paper clips, pencils and other stationery and moved to a loft on K Rd, above what was then a bakery and is now a sex shop. I opened my own practice and it was tremendously freeing.
I embraced the freedom of being on my own in a hedonistic way. I spent most of the middle of that year with two close friends, Sarah and Aaron, who worked for record companies. We often stayed out until dawn. We called it the winter of our discontent. There was a bar downtown called Poppa Jack's, and in the back was a private bar called the Dragon Bar. I think I spent more time there than in my apartment, and there were lots of times I would have rolled straight into my office from there.
I built a practice working for musicians and started to manage clients, which I'd never considered before. At the end of 1995 I was managing Garageland, Nathan Haines, Bic Runga and The Chills. I thought that was also just something on the side and I would continue to be a music lawyer, but 95 was the last year I spent rooted in New Zealand.
Before that, labels presented artists with contracts and they signed them. There were managers, but I don't think anyone was aggressively chasing it as a career internationally.
With the corporate law I had just felt it wasn't what I was made to do. I would always think: I can't possibly be doing this in 10 or 15 years. Then I found an aspect of the law that suited me.

damn you, webfuckinghosting…0
and after the horrendous hubb.co disappearance, seems like iWeb's $149/month server has a lot of issues, so i'll have to relocate all my current web projects. I've been searching for some decent rated webhosting company to rent a server from for a while now, with no real success… everything is "on pending" for the time being. FML !
i plays gsop bucharest.0
yay… just got a GSOP Bucharest package on OnGame. It's a $1600 buy-in four day nlhe freezeout mtt, with 5 nights accommodation and $700 spending money. Adding the package to this month's online winnings makes January 2011 my best month yet, despite running pretty rough most of it.
since getting back from vienna, two weeks ago, i played ~850 games, with a 500 game breakeven stretch. that's pretty painful, and kinda fucked up my game for a while there. but then, had an upswing these last 4 days. up ~35bi in 200 games.
last week, i bought myself a wireless keyboard & mouse kit, webcam and a new printer… just felt i needed a small reward… also bought an 120gb ipod classic yesterday, and right now i'm moving my music collection to it.
i'll start taking shots at $100s and $200s in february. 5-6bi shots at each level, though, 'coz i need most of the profit to pay up some of my debts and dad's operations (he'll have to get cut again, because of Craiova's shitty medical system).
a couple of days of peace, that's what i need right now…
Wat ? Where's June ?0
I'm really trying to realize wtf did i do in June. Poker-wise, i haven't been playing online at all (130 games whole month) and live poker has been pretty cruel with me. I'm still ~$1.3k up in june, but actually spent it all on i don't know what.
Debt-wise, I might just be able to get a ~$6k loan from a bank in the next couple of days, at a smaller interest than the 10%/month I'm currently paying. This would be great, and might help me in finally playing the DSO Namur at the end of this month. I'd love that, even though I practically have absolutely no live poker bankroll. Meh, at least I'm traveling.
I NEED TO PLAY >1000 games this month, or else. OR ELSE ! ORRRRRR EEEEELLLSSSEEEEE !

Canadian heraldic artist Cathy Bursey-Sabourin has recreated Canada's 13 provincial and territorial shields on a series of jigsaw pieces that encircle a central coin to create a large, 14-part coin. Each shield is exquisitely coloured and presented in the order each province and territory entered Confederation. A garland of maple leaves visually connects the pieces and carries a ribbon with each province's and territory's year of entry into Confederation. The central coin features a selectively gold plated Centre Block of Parliament Hill with the Centennial Flame burning in the foreground. A double-date (1867-2017) flanks the Peace Tower, and its clock indicates 10:00 pm when fireworks usually begin on Canada Day.
Each piece of the puzzle is legal tender with a face value of $50 (central coin) and $20 (each of the jigsaw pieces) and each piece of your 14-piece puzzle coin features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

The Power of Images in the Age of Augustus
University of Michigan Press, 1990 - Art - 385 pages
"Art and architecture are mirrors of a society. They reflect the state of its values, especially in times of crisis or transition." Upon this premise Paul Zanker builds an interpretation of Augustan art as a visual language that both expressed and furthered the transformation of Roman society during the rule of Augustus Caesar. The Power of Images in the Age of Augustus illustrates how the establishment of monarchy under Augustus Caesar led to the creation of a new system of visual imagery that reflects the consciousness of this transitional age.

A fantastic guide to the propaganda of the Augustan era. No one has compiled all of the images presented by coins, monuments, statues, and everything else better than Paul Zankar, after weeks of searching for the right book to use as a guide for a paper on the topic, Zankar's book was a total lifesaver. Information is presented in a way that is interesting, meaningful, and precise, with historical context outside the immediate sphere of propagandists.

Page 3 - My interest is instead in the totality of images that a contemporary would have experienced. This includes not only "works of art," buildings, and poetic imagery, but also religious ritual, clothing, state ceremony, the emperor's conduct and forms of social intercourse, insofar as these created a visual impression.

A Last Look at Florida
|Thursday, 11 March 2004
|written by Teresa
The clear shallow waters flow from the spring down the run and into the St Johns River. The temperature at source is seventy-two degrees and the Manatees are attracted to the warmer waters taking shelter and comfort from the colder river for a few months each year. Here at Blue Spring State Park they are constant visitors from November to March and even though the tourists outnumber them it's still worth the experience. The crystal waters of the spring run offer a wonderful view of these huge docile herbivores. Their characteristic flat disc tails acts as a slow majestic paddle, each stroke sending them gliding through the water. At rest, they lie on the sandy bottom gently rising now and again to take a noisy breath of air through their hippopotamus like snouts before settling back down for further snoozes. Their social nature is much in evidence as they play follow my leader, holding onto the manatee in front, as many as three piled up in this bizarre formation moving through the water before collapsing in a writhing mass, cavorting with each other. Now, we have read about mating herds but those appear to be larger gatherings and besides which this is a family website.
Speeding boats pose a significant threat to the slow moving Manatees, frequently colliding with them. Many get killed, the lucky ones escape with tell tale marks. These distinct scars are visible on nearly all the animals in the spring run and watching their slow stately progress it is easy to see why their usual speed of three to five miles an hour is of little help in this battle for survival with humankind.
There is something about these giants that touches me. In spite of their size they seem gentle and un-intimidating, the smooth curves of their bodies, their magical tails and comical snouts adding up to a most unlikely looking creature.
The warm waters are also home to some extremely large Gar as well as Catfish that appear to have a symbiotic relationship with the Manatees, performing a cleaning service by nibbling algae off their backs. Blue Tilapia excavate cone like depressions or nests in the sandy bottom of the run where they lay, hatch and protect their young and the little Florida turtles bask on low lying braches quickly slipping back into the water at the first sign of danger.
One afternoon we rent a canoe and prepare to venture out onto the river but have to maneuver around a manatee that has decided to snooze on the bed of the little launching bay. At the last minute he saunters off, aquatic style, as Sterling says. Mid-week there are few boats on the water and after the hubbub of the busy park; the surrounding quiet is a delight. The sound of the paddles slicing the water and the raucous objections of a disturbed heron are as loud as it gets. It is a wonderful way to experience the place, the alligators basking, the turtles sunning, the birds busy in the reeds and us just part of it, gliding by peacefully. Fortunately, Sterling is at the 'helm' that strangely enough turns out to be at the back of the canoe and so we do not spend hours going round and round in circles, although my lack of balance does assert itself and he finds himself having to compensate for the perpetual wobble; it's not really the place to go for a dip.
Now we are parked on the edge of the salt marsh in the lee of Little Talbot Island. The apparent flat uniformity of the grassy acres slowly come alive as the tide brings in a new lease of life. The sunlight glints and sparkles on the rising water level as it fills the channels and seeps out across the grassland, covering the oyster beds in the process. The Live Oaks and Junipers framing the camper are draped with Spanish moss; air plants nestled amongst the foliage. Early morning brings a surprising symphony of birdsong, the woodpeckers drumming out the percussion, the warblers carrying the main melody.
On the ocean side of the island the Atlantic laps up the empty expanse of beach, the dunes behind devoid of development here in the state park. Just inland, separated from the beach by older grass-covered dunes is a dense coastal hammock and a short trail winds through these various habitats, returning along the waters edge. It is our last stop in Florida before continuing north into Georgia and back to the realities of early spring and long trousers.

Ecoflo's range are the most appealing, because of the following features:
Why buy something that is too large for your current needs? Ecoflo offers the opportunity to start with a low-cost small scale unit and expand capacity later without needing to buy a whole new waterless composting toilet.
Relative to the type of home construction and space available, many of our competitors' products are large and cumbersome. Ecoflo offers split systems (composter under the floor) and large capacity self-contained units (the entire unit is above the floor). We have low profile split system composting toilets requiring just 650 mm clearance between the ground and the bathroom floor. Many people prefer the look of a split system. Our footprint under the bathroom is the smallest on the market.
Other manufacturers specialise in either batch or continuous process waterless composting toilets. We offer both types plus a hybrid.
Unique to Ecoflo are beautifully designed waterless toilet pedestals which resemble the style of "normal flushing toilets", but without that ugly and wasteful water cistern. We have both classical and modern style pedestals.

|Hisanori Hayasaka
|First Appearance
|Chapter 37
|Last Appearance
|Chapter 202
|January 15
|Smiling Face Ltd. owner
|Known Relatives
|Yukinori Hayasaka (younger brother)
Hisanori Hayasaka (早坂 久宜 Hayasaka Hisanori) is one of the two Hayasaka brothers and older brother to Yukinori Hayasaka. He works in the blackmarket, and is the main villain of the Hayasaka Arc. He does not appear in the anime.
Hisanori is a calm individual who is always seen smiling. He has great trust in his brother, Yukinori, and usually leaves the dirty work to him. Hisanori appears to have hidden agendas and he is very shrewd at making decisions. Yukinori himself has admitted he still doesn't understand how his brother thinks.
Hisanori lived with Yuki in a cold winter town when they were younger. They were apparently abandoned by their parents and had to watch their own backs as the people of the town were just as cold as the weather there. Yukinori was trapped in an avalanche at one point, and after Hisanori saved him he swore to always follow his older brother no matter what.
Mochizuki Tateo was the one who told Hisanori to smile as it would bring good fortune. Yukinori is the only one who has seen Hisanori without his smile, though veins show up on Hisanori's face when he is clearly angered. Hisanori's eyes have never been seen open except in an unclear picture on his manga info page. When he returns in the HAL arc he sports sunglasses and a different hairstyle. Hisanori appears to have a liking for cats and weapons. His favourite movie is "The Scream".
During the Hayasaka Arc, Mochizuki wanted to frame Yako and Neuro as drug traffickers so that they could be controlled for the benefit of the company. Hisanori had other plans however, as he wanted to take down Mochizuki and take over the company.
Plot OverviewEdit
Hisanori first appears with Mochizuki during Yako and Neuro's first visit to the company building. He was Mochizuki's right-hand man and handled most of the difficult paperwork for him. Hisanori recruits Godai as a bodyguard later when Yuki asks him to get him new subordinates. During the raid at the docks, Hisanori and Yuki arrive with Godai to carry out their plans. They get Godai to get rid of Yako and Neuro but Godai doublecrosses them at the last minute to rejoin the detectives' side. Hisanori becomes furious and tells Yukinori to deal with Godai while he deals with the rest. He betrays Mochizuki and reveals he had secretly ordered illegal weapons. Hisanori attempts to kill everyone in the warehouse but Neuro easily beats his subordinates and threatens him to shoot. He becomes agitated and brings the warehouse down when he realised he had lost. Yukinori notices this and goes over to rescue Hisanori.
During the HAL arc, Hisanori and Yuki make their reappearance, now as the owners of a smuggling company called Smiling Face Ltd. They sell Neuro a helicopter equipped with missiles, though this causes Yako to fall into debt after HAL's defeat. Yako consults Hisanori and Yuki to find ways to earn money quick, but quickly refuses when they presented extreme options (prostitution and illegal organ marketing).
Hisanori returns with a vengeance in the recent chapters, where he blasts off Kasai's subordinate, Shura, as payback for Kasai attacking his brother.
He is last seen during the last chapter still working with his company.

As the Asian Games winds down on Sunday, residents of Jakarta and Palembang – the two co-hosting cities – are wondering what will become of their cities after all the hype and massive revamping and construction of sports venues and infrastructure leading up to event is over.
In notoriously gridlocked Jakarta, commuters have been enjoying reduced traffic and faster travel time as the odd-even licence plate policy has been expanded to more roads for the duration of the games, which end on Sept 2. Private cars with odd-numbered plates can only use those roads on odd-numbered dates, with even-numbered plates allowed on even-numbered dates only.
The policy was expanded to ensure that it would take no more than 30 minutes for Asian Games athletes to travel from the athletes' village to the main sports venues in the city.
Some residents are happy with the significantly reduced traffic congestions, especially those who use public transport and are often stuck in buses and taxis with fast-running meters.
"It would be good to continue the odd-even plates restrictions and make them permanent. The traffic is much smoother now and we have much less congested roads and intersections, especially when traveling with Transjakarta buses," Bernadetta Febriana, a resident of South Jakarta said, referring to the city's main network of public buses.
The Indonesian capital has undergone a dramatic revamp with less than the usual amount of time to prepare to stage the 18th Asian Games, the second-biggest multi sports event after the Olympics.
Hanoi was awarded the games in 2012 but withdrew in 2014 citing lack of preparation and financial capability. The Olympics Council of Asia appointed Jakarta and Palembang, the capital of South Sumatra province to co-host the games, although some venues are located on the outskirts of Jakarta in neighboring Banten and West Java provinces. This is the second time that Jakarta has played host to the games. The last time was in 1962.
Urban planning expert Nirwono Joga said the city needed the momentum that an event such as the Asiad can create as a spur to undertake a major revamp and speed up infrastructure development.
"Apparently it is doable, financially and time-wise but it needs a boost to speed it up such as hosting a major event like the Asian Games. We can do it in just a few years and even in months," he said.
In preparation for the 1962 games, the Indonesian government started construction in 1960 of the Bung Karno sports complex, where the main venues are located. It also built the Selamat Datang (welcome) statue at the roundabout, in front of the Hotel Indonesia – the first international standard hotel in the capital, which was also built to accommodate the Asiad athletes, officials and guests.
For this year's games, the number of Transjakarta buses has been increased to anticipate those traveling without private cars due to the odd-even policy. The city's main thoroughfares now have wider sidewalks for pedestrians to encourage more people to get around by walking.
Joga said this would be the right moment to get more people walking from one point to another, reduce the use of private vehicles and increase the use of public transport.
"But we will need more expanded and walkable sidewalks for that. We can't tell people to take public transport if there are no safe and comfortable sidewalks for people to walk on after they get off the buses," he added.
"The city administration should continue revamping sidewalks in other parts of the city, and not just in the main thoroughfares for foreign visitors' eyes," he said.
Also noteworthy have been efforts to reduce the foul smell emanating from the Sentiong River – nicknamed Kali Item or Black River for its black, heavily polluted water – which is close to the athletes' villages in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta.
The river was sprayed with an odour neutralizer in order to improve the atmosphere for the international athletes staying in the village.
"So apparently there is a technology to reduce the river's pungent smell but we are only moved to use it just because we are hosting the games. Why didn't we try to use it earlier?" Joga asked rhetorically.
"We should not stop here and instead use this event as a momentum to continue cleaning the river and make the city more livable even when the games are over," Joga added.
Changes in the capital, in his view, could motivate other cities across the country to do the same to create a more livable environment for their residents.
What happens in the capital city reverberates all over Indonesia, he said, citing the news about the dismantling of a pedestrian bridge in downtown Jakarta and its replacement with a zebra crossing for pedestrians. President Joko Widodo tried out the crossing with Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan as news camera clicked away.
"It is only a few meters long but it generated nationwide publicity, even though the original aim of dismantling the bridge was more for aesthetic purposes instead of promoting walking as a means to get from one point to another," he said.
The governor said the bridge was dismantled because it blocked people coming from the city's north side to view the Selamat Datang statue, one of the city's most famous landmarks.
"Let's not stop making the city more civilised and amenable to modern living just after the games. It is time to view fixing the city's problems with the perspective of a modern metropolis, instead of the perspective of a big village as we have been doing all this time," Joga said,
The city has also built more sports venues to stage the games and rebuilt the outdated velodrome and equestrian park to meet modern, international standards.
Danny Buldansyah, the spokesman for the Indonesia Asian Games 2018 Organizing Committee (Inasgoc) said that despite the limited time available to prepare for an event as big and complex as the Asiad, Indonesia has managed to pull it off. The various sports competitions, which began on Aug 18, have been running smoothly so far with generally positive reviews from athletes, officials and spectators.
"We had to build more venues, such as hockey and volleyball stadiums, just three months prior to the games, because we had later confirmation of more participants in certain sports," he said.
He acknowledged concerns about what will happen next to the venues for less popular sports such as the equestrian park and how to maintain them and keep them useful.
"They will be managed in a partnership with private entities for other commercial uses," he said.
"We are also confident now that the equestrian park has met international standards, it could be hosting more international equestrian competitions in the future," Buldansyah said.
According to him, Indonesia has experienced an influx of roughly 25 million people consisting of athletes, sports officials, VIPs and foreign journalists for the games in Jakarta and Palembang.
"We have more people visiting for the games compared to the number of people in the 2014 Asiad in Incheon. It is a sign of their trust in us to host the games," he added.
Muslim residents living within a one-kilometer radius from the equestrian park in East Jakarta had to adjust their Eid Al Adha festivities, which fell on Aug 22. The Eid Al Adha celebration is a time when Muslims donate cattle or goats for slaughter as sacrifice and the meat is donated to the poor.
An order passed by the governor in 2017 put a restriction on the seasonal trade of cattle within the area, and 35 mosques within the restricted zone are forbidden to slaughter the sacrificial animals, in compliance with the international regulation that the area within a kilometer from the equestrian park should be an equine disease free zone.
A caretaker at the Al Hurriyah mosque in Pulo Asem neighborhood near the park said congregation members were aware of the restriction and have complied to it by donating their animals to be sacrificed elsewhere.
"For many of us here, the Asian Games is a once in a lifetime event, so we don't mind with this restriction because we want to take part in supporting the games," Purnomo said.
The story was first published in Bangkok Post

We have a new Director of Children's Ministries!
If you're part of the Willow Creek Church family, you know how special Drew Taylor is to us. Drew began his ministry at Willow Creek as an intern from nearby Reformed Theological Seminary. Serving within our children's ministry, God eventually developed Drew into its director, a position he held for several years.
Earlier this year, our elders called Drew to the position of Assistant Pastor of Families and Connections. This move enables Drew to grow in some new directions, specifically better connecting our guests and members, while also insuring his continued presence within the children's ministry.
In order to offset Drew's step in these new directions, we are so pleased to announce that Joanna Diemer is our new Director of Children's Ministries! Joanna's been a consistent servant within our children's ministry, and we believe that God's prepared her for this very important role. We praise God for his provision.
Joanna Diemer was born and raised in the beautiful state of Oregon. She attended Taylor University in Upland, Indiana where she met her husband Matt. The Diemer's moved from the Cincinnati area to central Florida in 2000. Joanna's brother-in-law and sister-in-law are long time WCC members, Nick & Angie Parker.
Joanna served as a middle school math teacher at Markham Woods Christian Academy until she decided to stay at home and care for her two children. She has homeschooled her daughter Sarah, a 10th grader at International Community School and also has a son, Alec, who is 21 years old and attends Taylor University.
Joanna has served in children's ministry as a Sunday School teacher for 5 years, as well as a VBS leader, and has served as a MOPS (Mothers of Pre-schoolers) volunteer. Joanna loves supporting her children in their baseball and softball games, spending time with her husband, and reading or listening to podcasts.
It will take a little while for Joanna to get fully up to speed, so please keep her in your prayers. Also, remember that Pastor Drew is still connected with our children's ministry. He can answer any questions you might have!
Much love in Jesus,

Client Launch
Congratulations to the Bangor Public Library in launching your new website! BPL has been involved in the community since their opening date in 1911. This historic library recently underwent an extensive renovation and opened many new meeting and business centers for patrons to rent.
We worked with the library in developing a new website that helped patrons navigate through the content. This website had the challenge of taking outdated content and giving it a facelift. It was our goal to highlight events at the library in addition to the new spaces they now offer for rent. The library now features a cafe in their newly built atrium.
We are currenlty working with a local developer to design an app for the library.

Barack Obama Quotes About BabiesQuotes about: Babies
The system isn't working when 12 million people live in hiding, and hundreds of thousands cross our borders illegally each year; when companies hire undocumented immigrants instead of legal citizens to avoid paying overtime or to avoid a union; when communities are terrorized by ICE immigration raids -- when nursing mothers are torn from their babies, when children come home from school to find their parents missing, when people are detained without access to legal counsel. When all that's happening, the system just isn't working.
[The White House staff] start bringing in their kids, who you think should be babies and now are in second grade or something, and you've watched them grow up. So I think what ends up happening is you end up maintaining those networks and those contacts, but the concentrated interactions and experience that you have here, I don't think, I don't expect you can duplicate anyplace else.

When I was young I memorised this poem by Robert Louis Stevenson. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
When I was sick and lay a-bed,
I had two pillows at my head,
And all my toys beside me lay,
To keep me happy all the day.
And sometimes for an hour or so
I watched my leaden soldiers go,
With different uniforms and drills,
Among the bed-clothes, through the hills;
And sometimes sent my ships in fleets
All up and down among the sheets;
Or brought my trees and houses out,
And planted cities all about.
I was the giant great and still
That sits upon the pillow-hill,
And sees before him, dale and plain,
The pleasant land of counterpane.

Etienne Hamel wrote: Is it a good idea to buy just the blade and do the rest ourselves? because i wanted to do it but i don't know if it's a good idea... Etienne, Once again, you're asking a very very broad question. What kind of project are you undertaking? What are your goals for the project? What is the experience level of the people working the project? What kind of sword are you assembling? Is the blade shaped and heat-treated? Etc., etc. Please give us more information if you want us to help you. If you ask non-specific questions, you will get non-specific answers. Also, consider editing your topic title to let readers have a better sense of what the thread is about. Again, please be specific.

The fact that they are using the previously listed terminology, and the mirror polish on most of their blades and components does not bode well for their quality. The blade shapes don't look very historical to me at least. In short, not something that I would buy, but it's up to you. As for whether or not it's a good idea to do it yourself, that's a call that you should be making yourself, since I/we don't know what you're capable of doing or your background in this subject. www.addisondelisle.com Etienne Hamel Location: Granby (QC) canadaJoined: 09 Sep 2006 Posts: 433 Posted: Thu 04 Jan, 2007 7:49 am Post subject: it is more sports blade not very historical but durable here's some info of some peoples that bought them: Feedback from our customers : David M. Cvet, A.I. IMAF, President & Founder (AEMMA) : "Our Heimrick swords have been used in training in Toronto, fought in tournaments in Canada and the USA and continue to retain their superb performance." Brian McIlmoyle A.I. IMAF Principal Instructor (AEMMA) : The Academy of European Medieval Martial Arts uses Heimrick swords exclusivly, AEMMA considers these swords to be of excellent quality and unsurpassed value. Anyone looking for a well balanced and robust training blunt should end their search with Heimrick Armoury swords. Chris Myers (Company of Maisters) : I am very pleased with the Heimrick swords. They are light weight, well balanced and durable. The price is also very reasonable. I recomend them to anyone who is training in the art of the sword. Harry T Heydon (ONT) (Blades of Glory) : I have spent 4 years and alot of money trying to find a sword that will hold up to our style of fighting, and at the same time at a reasonable price. Your swords meet both these requirements admirably. I have purchased and used "combat ready" swords from other companies and had them break in as little as 30 seconds of fighting (July 3, 2000, Promenade Days Barrie, Ont.... luckily it was after a show - as I refused the sword maker's request to use it in the show until we tested it in combat!). Another "combat ready" sword did not even last one practice before the half of the blade broke off. Jeff (NJ): Terrific weapons!! They're beautiful AND practical. My only worry is my wife's jealousy (and that she's got one too!)! Chris (NY) OTL : I would like to let you know, we have used these blades in practice and in tournament in Terena Portugal. These swords are the best I have seen or used. They have a nice balance, and the pomel and grip fit us very well. Your blades have great flex and sensitivity, and the edges are getting harder with use. DAKAO (TX) : I just got your sword today! It looks quite nice yet with clean lines -- just like I expected it. The balance is terrific! ADAM BIRCH (CDN): my expectations have been far exceeded. The Item is beautiful. Nice clean lines, good balance. This sword will serve me well in the years to come. CHRIS DELLA FAVE (O. T. L.) (NY) : I wanted to let you know, the sword you made for my wife is excellent. We are VERY pleased with it's weight and balance. Thank You. JOSEPH CADIEUX (Tournament Production) CALIF : I just wanted to let you know that I received the 2 swords and they were in use at the Livermore tournament last weekend. They broke 2 swords made by an unknown competitor with out much more than a surface scratch. MICHAEL CASSIDY (NJ): I purchased and received the rapier dagger set... I wanted to just say that I used the sword in the Ren fair I was in and it was great. Folks loved how it looked and the other fighters loved how it held up and the functionality of the blade. After 4 months of practice and constant use and 2 weekends of the show, the blade is in almost perfect condition (minor burr's and very small dings). This set has been one of the best sword buy's I have ever made in regards to a beautiful show piece and fully functional fighting piece combined. CAT McLoed (California) : Very easy to wield considering it's length. I had to adjust my style due to it's size. Excellent blade, it took some serious punishment today and was envied by many both before and after it was used with success. Flexes just right, balanced for speed everyone was most impressed. ALEXANDER NEPPL (Germany Bavaria) : I am very satisfied with the shortswords. You manifested that you are a very great swordsmith I think. Kirby M. Miller, (Alaska)......I have 158 swords from all over the world and no other compares to Heimrick's in balance and flexibility. It is nothing less than an extension of my arm. My many thanks to JP and Heimrick Armeor. Chris Penney OMSG (Ottawa) : The sword arrived today. It feels great- it's light, and the balance feels good. I look forward to trying it out. Aaron Pynenberg (Wisconsin USA) : I have been using the Longsword now for about a week and a half. I love it! It is a very well made piece congrats. It really shows how well made it is with other blunts. The finish is very durable and easy to maintain, perfect for WMA just as advertised, thanks for the quality Etienne Hamel Location: Granby (QC) canadaJoined: 09 Sep 2006 Posts: 433 Posted: Thu 04 Jan, 2007 7:53 am Post subject: And for the steel it's steel-molybdenum. Addison C. de Lisle Location: South CarolinaJoined: 05 Nov 2005 Likes: 27 pages Posts: 614 Posted: Thu 04 Jan, 2007 8:59 am Post subject: Thank you, but I already read the testimonials on the actual page. And as for the steel name I read that as well, but it doesn't mean all that much because molybdenum is used in many different steels as a hardening agent, so it doesnt tell you all that much about the properties of the steel. This entire discussion seems rather tangential to your actual point, which is whether or not people on the forum think you are capable of assembing a sword yourself, which is in itself a question that you should be able to answer yourself. If you are comfortable with securing the pommel, wedging the guard, shaping a wood core for the grip, possibly covering the wood core with some sort of material such as leather, wire, or cord, then go for it. www.addisondelisle.com Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First Forum Index > Off-topic Talk > Good idea?

About Us
One daylily at a time is how my crazy obsession of collecting daylilies began. I purchased Hemerocallis 'Baja.' It done well, then I began to find a world of variety. Visiting other daylily gardens led to my dream of sharing my passion with others.
When the daylilies bloom, I see Jesus smiling at me. He is saying, "That a girl! This is what God has meant you to do." Seeing the joy and smiles of my customers as they stroll through the garden reminds me of why this is my dream.
I have been growing daylilies for 16 years and counting.
I am a member of the American Hemerocallis Society. AHS is a great resource for information, clubs and daylily database.

Louisa Deasey recently got in contact to tell me about the connection between her father, the author Denison Deasey, and Richard Aldington. She wrote:
I recently found hundreds of my dad's diaries and letters in the library in Victoria. There is a lot of correspondence with / diary entries around his time in St Clair when Aldington lived at Aucassin – 1948-1951 particularly. Aldington influenced my dad's life very strongly, inspiring him to become a writer and draft his first books, encouraging him and writing to him an awful lot until his death in 1962. My dad wrote the memoir "Lunch At The Villa" which was published in 1981, in the Bulletin. It was based on the time he met Aldington and Kershaw was working as his secretary in the south of France.
Louisa is writing a book about her discovery of this archive, which will be published by Scribe in 2018. She continues:
What set me on the whole treasure hunt for Aucassin / Aldington's granddaughters was that i found a small pil of black and white photos of Aldington and Catha in France in the 40s and 50s in dad's collection. I'd never known who they were of… until I started looking into the library material…
As part of my research, I travelled to St Clair in March. I met a lovely man named Raphael Dupouy there, and he took me to the Villa Aucassin, where Aldington lived, and where dad stayed in 1948/49/50. I also met Sylvain – Alister Kershaw's son – in Paris. He really wanted to come with me to Aucassin (he would have been so welcome, as he works as a French/English translator and, as it was, Raphael and I had much difficulty communicating!) but he'd already booked a trip to Spain for the dates I was in Saint Clair.
Raphael Dupouy is the cultural director for Lavandou Tourisme, and he is writing an article on my trip / the Aldington links, which will be published in August. It will be in French, in a publication called Figue Libre – he took some photos of me at Aucassin, too.
That article can be found at the Figue Libre website. It's on page 4 of the current issue (no. 39). You'll have to dust off your French, though, as Louisa says!

NOT LONG AGO, the typical American woman with some discretionary income considered a massage or a body "facial" an occasional luxury. But now, for many women, these treatments--in addition to regular hair styling, facials, waxings, manicures and pedicures--are a once- or twice-a-month habit. Full-service salons are increasing in numbers, and salons that once just tended to the hair and nails are expanding to include facials, massages and other forms of full-body care.
Aida Thibiant, owner of one of the first European-style skin and body-care salons in Beverly Hills, maintains that cleansing the entire body surface is as essential to health and good looks as caring for the face. Her body facials, administered on a massage table, begin with an all-over steaming and exfoliation with a honey-almond scrub. This deep cleansing is followed by a massage and a head-to-toe moisturizing masque, removed with warm, moist towels. Her salon also has a Panthermal machine, the only one of its kind in California, Thibiant says.
In it, the client reclines on a wood-slat bed while a fine mist steams open the pores; then the body is spritzed with a moisturizing oil and rinsed lightly.
"More and more American women are turning to full-body care as they turn away from heavy exposure to the sun," Thibiant says.
