It's not just cold outside, it's also very hazy!
As soon as you step outside, you'll see the haze and you can even smell it.
The haze that blanketed the valley Tuesday morning was actually from people using their fireplaces and the smoke from Monday night's fireworks displays.
This happens this time of the year because so many people want to have a fire going during the holidays -- even though the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality issued a "no burn day" from midnight to midnight Jan. 1.
With clearing skies, light winds and cold temperatures in the valley, burning wood will increase the fine particles in the air and make it difficult to breathe.
ADEQ says residents and business owners cannot use fireplaces, wood stoves or outdoor fire pits. They're also asking people to drive as little as possible, avoid using leaf blowers and avoid driving on dirt roads.

You can share some of the information items you have collected using Piggy Bank with other people by publishing them onto a Semantic Bank, a communal repository of information.
Adding Accounts to Piggy Bank
Before you can publish, you must register with one or more Semantic Banks:
- Invoke the menu command Tools » Piggy Bank » My Semantic Bank Accounts....
- Click Add... in the Semantic Bank Accounts dialog box.
- In the popup dialog box, type in the URL to the Semantic Bank you want to register with. (The default URL points to our group's Semantic Bank, but we recommend that your group set up its own Semantic Bank.)
- Select the type of account, either OpenID or Username / password; for username / password, enter an account ID of your choice and a password. (Note: currently we do not use encryption during authentication; do not use your precious password here.)
- Click OK, wait for the account to get registered, and then dismiss the Semantic Bank Accounts dialog box.
In the latest versions of Piggy Bank (3.1+), the ability to use OpenID based Semantic Bank accounts with the help of Appalachian was added. The process for adding an account is similar; after step 3 as above:
- Select OpenID as the type of account.
- Choose the OpenID you'd like to use with this Semantic Bank, making sure it supports OpenID authentication (there should be an OpenID login box on its front page)
- Click OK.
- Visit the Semantic Bank and login with Appalachian.
In newer versions of Piggy Bank (3.1+) you can publish from any view of Piggy Bank by clicking on the coin upload icon in your status bar. The icon will show up for individual items (viewed on their own by clicking their title) or for any browsing at all, other than the initial front page view of Piggy Bank.
Your old username / password accounts will still work with older versions of Semantic Bank that don't accept OpenID. Newer OpenID-based accounts may require an intermediate login step after you hit the publishing icon; you will be asked if you want to login if you haven't done so beforehand, and a separate tab or window will open to help speed up the process.
Publishing in Older Piggy Bank Versions
In older versions of Piggy Bank, before 3.1, you could publish an item by just clicking the corresponding Publish button (much like how you save the item). To publish all the items being viewed, click the Publish All button. In addition, while tagging a web page, you can also publish the tags directly to your Semantic Banks by tabbing over to the Tag and Publish button. Note that in this version of Piggy Bank, publishing means publishing to all Semantic Banks you have registered with — there is no fine-grained control over which Semantic Banks to publish to.
Using Semantic Bank
You can browse to a Semantic Bank just by browsing to the Semantic Bank's URL (e.g., http://simile.mit.edu/bank/). Semantic Bank provides the same browsing user interface Piggy Bank. In addition, Semantic Bank lets you browse the items it contains by the contributors of those items (use the "contributor" facet). That is, you can zoom into the collection of items contributed by a particular person.

Skull-wearing burglar chased off in PoultneyStaff Report | October 29,2013POULTNEY - Police are investigating a Halloween-themed home invasion that happened early Tuesday morning.
According to state police, around 3:30 a.m., a resident awoke to find a burglar in the kitchen of his East Main Street home. Police said the burglar was wearing what it called a Halloween-style skull mask.
When confronted, the burglar fled the house on foot, making off with a laptop computer.
The suspect is described as being 5 feet, 10 inches tall, with a medium build and wearing all black and a mask. Anyone with information is asked to call the State Police Rutland barracks at 773-9101.MORE IN This Just InThe Associated Press Full StoryThe Associated Press Full StoryStaff Report Full Story

(Just to recap, linking to reasons #1, #2, and #3 for liberals and moderates to support Santorum)
As Americans who want to see Obama re-elected, we want the GOP nomination race to go on as long as possible.
How does this help Obama? First, the extended contest is damaging all the GOP candidates. Just over a month ago, Mitt Romney seemed like the inevitable nominee. GOP insiders were gearing up to say only good things about him until November…and then he lost several primaries and caucuses. Now there are attack ads flying at every candidate from all sides, and all of them are losing favorability. Meanwhile, their need to constantly campaign in order to win primaries gives them more opportunities for gaffes and blunders, in contrast to which President Obama looks competent and presidential. While they're all busy bickering over issues most Americans don't care about, Obama is busy being a leader. Is it any surprise that Obama's job approval ratings have finally reached a net positive, after months and months of net negative ratings?
The other big reason we want this contest to go on is that it makes the candidates adopt more extreme positions, especially "moderate" Romney, in order to appease the GOP base which is far to the right of the average American. Did you watch last week's debate? You can find it here. At 1:27:30 you can hear Rick Santorum accuse President Obama of "reaching out" to America's enemies and being "afraid" of Iran. Then listen as Newt Gingrich says "as long as you're America's enemy, you're safe" from Obama, but if you're America's ally Obama will throw you under the bus. Then when it's Mitt Romney's turn to answer (at 1:30:06), he AGREES with Gingrich and Santorum!
This is, of course, a ridiculous position. It's nonsensical. The leader who got Bin Laden is protecting America's enemies? What????? This line of reasoning cannot win in a general election. It is simply red meat for the far-right GOP base. And by prolonging the primary contest, we are forcing all the candidates, including the eventual nominee, to toss more red meat out there.
The problem for them is, the more red meat they toss out there for their base, the more out of touch they seem to the middle, not to mention seeming more uncivil. Would Mitt Romney have liked to run against Obama without questioning the president's patriotism or sanity, but only his policy sense? Of course he would. He no longer has that option. Now that he is being forced to fight tooth and claw for nearly every GOP primary, Romney has had to cater more and more to the right fringe of his party and less and less to the moderate swing voter. Unfortunately for him, moderate swing voters are what win general elections.
We are winning. Simply by having these extremists in the race, we are winning. By prolonging the GOP race to the nomination, we win. The right can only lose the longer this has to play out. Santorum is a key piece in this process. Santorum is the one candidate that has done the most to roll back Romney's "inevitability", because Santorum keeps winning states that Romney is "supposed" to win. For this reason, he deserves our primary vote. Let's keep Santorum surging.

Flight costs
On each trip page the adult and child prices are 'Flight Inclusive' by default.
Prices are based on our Group Flights and include all UK taxes. However, charges abroad must be paid directly at the airport on departure. Where applicable this is indicated in the Trip Notes.
Flight Inclusive explained…
We have prearranged special rates with airlines on most trips. These are known as the Group Flights. On these:
- You generally start and finish in London, although we can book regional add-ons.
- You travel as per your individual booking rather than as a group.
- You will be met at your destination airport and transferred to the joining point
To get the special rates these Group Flights offer you must book 3-12 months in advance. We hand back the Group Flight seat allocations to the airline three months from departure. From this point we buy seats on the open market – these are likely to incur a flight supplement.
If you want us to book different flights to the Group Flights there's a £25 booking charge.
Without Flights explained…
Click on the 'Without Flights' link and you'll see the price of the tour without flights, allowing you to source your own flights/ transport. For these bookings it is your responsibility to make your own way to and from the joining point in-country, although we can provide a pre-booked transfer.
Due to the possibility of changes or delays to international flights DO NOT purchase NON-CHANGEABLE or NON-REFUNDABLE tickets.
We can assist with Without Flights bookings
If you book 'Without Flights' to a short or mid haul destination serviced by low cost carriers we can help you find cheap flights. Our Travel Consultants have access to numerous low cost carrier schedules so can give you instant quotes for FREE and book the flights on your behalf for £25.
Extending your holiday
If you wish to go out earlier or return later speak to a Travel Consultants. They can provide quotes for FREE and book the flights for a £25 charge.
Getting to the airport
We have competitive rates for airport car parks and hotels, rail and coach travel to the airport, and upgrades into departure lounges. Speak to a Travel Consultant to see how you can save

October is National Energy Awareness Month, a good time to give your home an energy-minded checkup before the cold months ahead.
Among the most likely places where your house may be leaking energy and money are windows and sliding-glass doors.
"Virtually every building component in a home needs to be replaced at some point, and windows are no exception," said Gary Pember of Simonton Windows. "We'd like to think that our roof, siding and windows will last forever, but they won't.
"Marking your calendar each October to routinely check your windows and patio doors helps ensure they are performing the way they were designed to perform," he added. "These checks also help determine when it's time to consider a window-replacement project that can offer you long-term energy savings especially if you live in an older home."
Pember suggested these tips for homeowners on how to do a window and door checkup:
Examine the inside of your windows and patio doors for hot and cold "drafty" spots or areas. This indicates "air infiltration" air leaking in from outside that can lead to reduced energy efficiency.
Check every window and door to make sure there is adequate weatherstripping and caulking around each. This helps eliminate air infiltration and ensures a weather-tight, secure seal.
Look for "burnt out" or faded areas on your furnishings and carpeting. This could indicate that damaging UV rays are entering your home through your windows or doors. Consider replacement with more energy-efficient units containing "Low-E" coatings on the glass.
If your windows no longer open or close easily or if they need to be propped open it could mean key components within the units are damaged or need adjustment. Or the whole unit may need to be replaced.
Check the fit of your windows or patio doors. This takes two people. At night, one person stands outside the window or door. The other stays inside and, with a small flashlight, traces around the edge of the unit with light. If the person outside sees light coming through the window or door edges, this indicates poor fit or installation and energy loss.
For more tips on windows and energy savings, click on www.efficientwindows.org.
The U.S. Department of Energy has compiled tips for consumers considering window replacements as well as more ways to save at www.energysavers.gov. Also check out the five-minute Energy Yardstick, a way to assess your home energy use, at www.energystar.gov.
Plant daffodils and other spring bulbs. Plant some each week for the next three weeks to spread out your spring bloom.
Dig up corms and tubers of gladioluses, dahlias and tuberous begonias after the foliage dies. Clean and store in a cool, dry place.
Apply mulch to summer-blooming bulbs and tubers left in the ground.
Treat azaleas, gardenias and camellias with chelated iron if leaves yellow between the veins.
Remove water basins from shrubs and pots before the rainy days ahead. That way, your potted plants won't get cold, soggy feet.
In the vegetable garden, plant seeds for radishes, bok choy, mustard, spinach and peas. Plant garlic and onions. Transplant lettuce seedlings.
Watch out for snails and hand-pick them.
Fertilize indoor plants. This will help boost winter bloomers. With colder days ahead, you'll spend more time inside prime time to enjoy your indoor garden.

The Word: Katy Perry and Robert Pattinson are just friends
Katy Perry has been spending a lot of time with newly single Robert Pattinson. They even crashed a wedding rehearsal together last week, and if that's not a magical first date, I don't know what is. However, sources close to the non-couple say there's nothing romantic between them: They're just good, platonic, wedding-crashing pals.
"Rob and Katy are just very similar people and she adores him, as a friend, and she just wants to be there for him as a mate," the source explained to E! News.
Hmm. Well, that source is probably in Rob's camp, since they're clearly British — we don't say "mate" here, mate — unless it's Katy's ex-husband Russell Brand. Either way, seems like Katy's intentions are still unclear. Maybe she's just waiting a bit to make her move so Twilight fans won't try to stake her for stealing Edward from Bella.
Rob was spotted last week moving out of the house he'd shared with Kristen, his girlfriend of almost four years. He took off with his truck piled high with suitcases and belongings, and his two dogs, Bear and Bernie, in the front seat.
No! Not the dogs!
According to the Daily News, Rob and Kristen's relationship has been strained for some time, and they've been arguing about her moodiness and her cheating with director Rupert Sanders last year. Kristen is reportedly devastated by the breakup — although they've agreed to see other people, she doesn't want to, and doesn't want Rob seeing anyone else either.

Because everyone contributes their unique expertise and insight, we are able to create better places. We are professional but low key, and though we're busy, we're not uptight. We are not a corporate firm, where a handful of people often are inaccessible to everyone below them. We help and support each other.
Our dedication to collaboration extends to our clients. We know projects, like people, are dynamic. Site conditions, client needs and construction logistics affect them, and we may need to tweak our designs again and again. But we never give up on our projects. We will work together with our clients, consultants and project team until we fulfill our commitment to creating excellent places.
We understand our team members have families and outside commitments. We encourage work-life balance and community involvement. We volunteer in our neighborhood and professional organizations, coach our kids' teams, and play in sports. But we also work hard in our profession. We may be in the office before the sun rises and after the sun sets, but it's because we love the work we do: We love creating places that are meaningful and inspiring for our clients.

Matrex, Font Manager, and Window Switch
Projects on the Move
Matrex revolutionizes the way databases and spreadsheets cooperate, Font Manager handles fonts, and Window Switch magically sends program windows and complete desktops across the wire.
The tale behind Matrex [1] likely will sound familiar to readers – somebody was unhappy with an existing solution, they developed something new, released an initial version, and found other creative souls willing to contribute, port the program, and translate or write manuals. This scenario is what happened in the summer of 2006 when Andrea Ferrandi got annoyed with his spreadsheet.

Trusted Friend
Be sure to have a dependable person on your bridal team who can take charge & make sure your day is STRESS FREE!
Amanda (Bailey's Harbor)
Rehearsal Fun
During the rehearsal, instead of carrying bouquets, have each one of your girls carry a cooking utensil (spatula, mixing spoon, etc.). It is a fun way to lighten the mood and gives you needed kitchen items for you and your significant other!
Sarah (Wyandotte)
Plan Ahead
Don't wait till the last minute to do everything! Do everything at least a month before you technically should do it! Also, go to David's Bridal to get you bridesmaids' dresses! They are AMAZING! They helped my bridesmaids and I find a dress that they ALL loved and they all looked amazing in even though they all have completely different body types!
Brittany (Cullowhee)
Be Bold
It's your wedding, go crazy! Mix & match the colors of your bridesmaids' dresses to add extra pop of color to go with the theme of your wedding!
Christina (Fords)
Bridesmaids on a Budget
Another big complaint that bridesmaids have (although you'll never hear them say it) is that they will spend a lot of money on a bridesmaid dress that they'll only wear once. Well, here's an idea that will make them a little happier and help make your wedding unique. Give your bridesmaids a color guideline for their dress and then let them buy whatever dress they want as long as it's in your color range. This will give each one of your bridesmaids the opportunity to put their own personality into their dress and might actually get them to purchase a dress that they'll wear for another special occasion.
Stephanie (Cortland)
Be nice!
Remember what it felt like to be a bridesmaid and make sure you treat your girls well! It's a celebration; let everyone involved be able to enjoy it!
Leanna (Fairmont)
It's the Little Things
Focus on little details that make the outfit uniquely yours (or your bridesmaids'). Think: sashes, jewelry, shoes. I let my maids pick out their own dress as long as it was the color I chose from David's. They each get to wear a dress that flatters their own body and fits their personality. For accessories I picked gold/ champagne and let them pick shoes, sashes, and jewelry that fit each girl's unique style. They are all happy with their individual outfit and they all look beautiful next to each other. Forget matchy-matchy. That's so 1990's. It's 2013! Let your maids express their unique style in a way that they still coordinate well.
Colleen (Houston)
Color It Yours
It's your wedding; go crazy! Mix & match the colors of your bridesmaid dresses to add an extra pop of color to go with the theme of your wedding!
Christina (Fords)
Maids' Choice
Try mixing it up! Instead of the same dress and color for your bridesmaids, allow each girl to pick a dress that works with her body type or let her select different hues of your wedding colors.
Catherine (Waynesboro)
Take Care of Your Party
Please remember the essential goodies for your bridesmaids. In their bag, have a water bottle, flip flops or slippers, and chocolate.
Samantha (Zachary)
Make Them Shine
I'm all about making sure my bridesmaids look and feel great on the wedding day, too. When they look great, they'll highlight the bride even better!

laptops batteries
Do you know your laptop battery?When given this question to any user of the laptops batteries,they will get confused. This happens to me once when someone asks me about my dell battery.As you can see, before replacing the Hp Compaq battery Acer battery Apple battery IBM battery Asus battery Lenovo battery Samsung battery Sony battery and Toshiba battery,it is very important to know a little about the field again in the first place. There are several types of Canada laptop batteries that I will share in this post. The types of replacement laptop batteries: 1. Alkaline – This is a common batteries for laptop around, but only a few use this kind and the ruling on alkaline Dell Inspiron 6400 Battery,Dell 1520 battery or Dell 1525 battery will not be rechargeable. You have to shoot once to deflate. 2. Lead Acid – One of the most common use. It is durable, resistant and rechargeable, but unfortunately the Dell Latitude D800 Battery is heavy and full of lead: P. 3. Lithium-Ion – The type of HP Pavilion DV4 Battery or HP HSTNN-DB72 battery that you want to have for your laptop. The quick-charge effect is good for users moving (no need to wait a while for the battery is fully charged.) It is also environmentally friendly as well. 4. Nickel Cadmium – Ni-Cd is one of the oldest types and improved performance of rechargeable acer aspire 5520 series battery, but has a serious problem. After prolonged use (several years),acer aspire 5520G battery will be affected by the dreaded memory effect. This means that the use of battery life deteriorates over time. 5. Nickel Metal Hydride – Ni-MH is considered the successor to the Ni-Cd batteries such as acer aspire 5100 battery and acer aspire one battery, but unfortunately, the dreaded memory effect is as bad as well. However, comparison of the Ni-Cd and NiMH batteries, it lasts longer compared to its predecessor. The chances of using lithium-ion apple A1280 battery is 99% (that is if you are using the new breed of laptops). Just check the abbreviation says Lion or Li-Ion batteries in apple A1281 battery label. There are still some laptops that use Ni-MH batteries these days and you may want to check with the manufacturer if you can make an update of Ni-MH Li-Ion. The unauthorized use of Dell latitude D600 battery could lead to dire consequence. so do be very careful about this. If you have a larger budget you might want to check the SMART acer BATBL50L6 battery. It has a power management circuit and also tells the user which is the current condition of the BATBL50L6 replacement battery.

How to maximize your laptop battery?Well,do as follows.Condition the dell inspiron 1520 battery when u purchase it.Charge the dell inspiron 1525 battery to 100 percent,discharge the dell battery completely,and then fully charge dell gg386 battery to 100 percent again to help the dell laptop remember exactly how much electrical it can hold.From then on,you'll never need to completely discharge the dell inspiron 6400 battery again,but always make sure when charging the dell inspiron 9400 battery that u let it reach 100 percent.Salinas had tip for your dell studio 1535 battery:keep them cool,don't exposure the dell latitude d600 battery to the high temperatures. Pull up overload programs. Run only the programs u are using,the other programs in the background will drain your dell latitude d800 battery life. Don't use any external devices. USB and PC-Cards use your dell latitude d620 battery to function, even when you aren't using them! Power down the display "You can often yield up to ten minutes of hp dv4 battery life per level of brightness lowered," said Salinas.The more you are doing at the same time with your PC, the more memory and CPU usage increases. Both of which directly use up hp pavilion dv2000 battery. Keep your HP tx1000 battery cool. You can take a page out of the extreme gamer's handbooks, and have your system perform more optimally by keeping HP HSTNN-DB72 battery cool. Short discharges and recharges do not fully synchronize the IBM thinkpad x60 battery's fuel gauge with the battery's state-of-charge. This can result in the amount of power available in one cycle being less than expected or the Asus A32-A8 battery meter being inaccurate. 1. Turn off Wi-Fi and BlueTooth - Most acer aspire 5520 series battery have shortcut keys to instantly disable wireless networking. 2. Don't play computer games, music or DVD movies - Multimedia activities drain acer aspire one battery. 3. Adjust your screen brightness - Dimming your display saves acer aspire 5100 battery power. 4 If you do not use your laptop for extended periods of time (a week or more), remove the acer BATBL50L6 battery pack from the laptop. 5. Do not expose the apple A1280 battery to high heat or freezing temperatures. Do not leave your apple A1281 batteryin your car in the summer. Hot Sony BPS8 battery discharge very quickly, and cold ones can't create as much power. 6. Fully charge new Sony BPS9 battery packs before use. New pack needs to be fully charged and discharged (cycled) a few times before it can condition to full capacity. 7. For laptops that work as Desktop Replacement, the Toshiba PA3534U-1BAS battery should be re -installed every 3-4 weeks and allowed to fully discharge. 8. Leaving the Gateway Nv52 battery in a laptop while using an electrical outlet for long periods of time will keep the battery in a constant state of charging up and that will reduce the life cycle of the battery.

A neighborhood pub in Atlanta's Inman Park recently learned the high price of repeat health code violations.
They cost double points the second time around.
The Albert, 918 Austin Avenue, failed a second routine inspection by tripping up on some of the same code violations as before.
"There were a few little things that we also got wrong the last time, so we had double points taken off. It wasn't anything major. We corrected them on site," said Manager Heath Horan.
The restaurant scored a 51/U, and had a 55/U in August. Points were taken off on both routine inspections for having food debris on the equipment, mold inside the ice machine and a few unwanted items were lying around the kitchen.
The inspector recommended a thorough detailed cleaning of the facility.
The grill, cook-line and fryer doors all needed cleaning. Cutting boards had debris build-up and were no longer cleanable. Shelves used to store clean utensils and equipment were dirty with food debris. All the coolers had heavy food debris inside and needed deep cleaning, the inspector said.
In other code violations, an employee handled sliced tomatoes with bare hands. Open beverage containers were on a food prep table near clean equipment and utensils. Multiple food containers in the refrigerator were not properly date-marked for disposal.
The Albert will be re-inspected and Horan said that should get the restaurant's score back in the 90s. Its previous health score was 93/A.
Here are other recent inspection scores from area restaurants.

I am an evolutionary biologist and ecologist working at the French Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA). My lab is located at the Sophia-Antipolis research station (the Sophia Agrobiotech Institute), next to the cities of Antibes, Cannes and Nice (map).
My research is about the theory and modelling of how natural selection causes changes in traits within communities, and the consequences this has. I am particularly interested in the ecological and adaptive implications of spatially subdivided (or fragmented) habitats. For instance, I have studied the hypothesis that divergence in dispersal (colonization) abilities can sustain biodiversity, the so-called "competition-colonization" trade-off mechanism:
I also study, and test theory on, real-life ecological systems, mostly insects in agricultural ecosystems. During my PhD, for instance, I studied the European Corn Borer (ECB), a phytophagous moth and a major pest of maize crops worlwide:

In this volume of The Flashman Papers, Flashman, the arch-cad and toady, matches his wits, his talents for deceit and malice, and above all his speed in evasion against the most brilliant European statesman and against the most beauiful and unscrupulous adventuress of the era. From London gaming-halls and English hunting-fields to European dungeons and throne-rooms, he is involved in a desperate succession of escapes, disguises, amours and (when he cannot avoid them) hand-to-hand combats. All the while, the destiny of a continent rests on his broad and failing shoulders.

-- Robert Preidt
WEDNESDAY, June 8 (HealthDay News) -- Dieters are more likely
than non-dieters to be misled by food names, a new study says.
For example, dieters rated food items with names such as "salad"
as being healthier than identical products with names such as
"pasta," while non-dieters made no such distinctions.
Dieters also believed that candy labeled "fruit chew" was
healthier than the same candy when it was labeled "candy chew," and
ate more of the candy when it was called fruit chews, said the
University of South Carolina researchers.
"The fact that people's perceptions of healthfulness vary with the name of the food item isn't surprising. What is interesting is that dieters, who try to eat healthy and care about what they eat, fell into these 'naming traps' more than non-dieters who really don't care about healthy eating," study author Caglar Irmak, an assistant professor of marketing, said in a university news release.
The findings from the study of more than 520 people suggest that
dieters rely on food names to identify supposedly healthy foods,
Irmak explained. Instead, dieters need to focus on reading
nutritional information on food products and restaurant menus.
"These results should give dieters pause. The study shows that dieters base their food decisions on the name of the food item instead of the ingredients of the item. As a result, they may eat more than what their dieting goals prescribe," Irmak said.
The study appears in the August issue of the
Journal of Consumer Research.

The Life Organizer by Jennifer LoudenPosted on February 13th, 2014 | Filed Under Life Balance, Personal Growth, Self Care
You know how I love to share resources! I am super excited to share this amazing new book The Life Organizer, by Jennifer Louden. It is an exquisite book – a feast to the eyes, and a beloved companion to your continued journey to self care.
We all yearn to have time for personal needs and creative dreams — after all, this is our life to make the most of. And we all know how hard it is to remember what really matters. With distractions from jobs, aging parents, and children — not to mention women's perennial fear of being labeled "selfish" — following our own desires and dreams can become ever more elusive. The Life Organizer aims to help you shift your focus, augmenting traditional goal setting with the ease that comes from steady inner listening and mindfulness. It will become your trusted companion — and maybe the most important book you'll ever own.
The book's author Jennifer Louden is a personal growth pioneer who helped launch the self-care movement. She is widely known as The Comfort Queen thanks to her first bestelling book The Woman's Comfort Book, has been interviewed by Oprah, and has written a total of 6 books on well-being and whole living that have inspired women all over the world. She believes self-love + world-love = wholeness for all. You can visit her online at http://www.jenniferlouden.com.
You also can watch a short YouTube interview w/ Jennifer about the book, which offers an inspiring glimpse into her work here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPf5q1aVTvk
I hope you enjoy her work as much as I go!

This is a season to celebrate in Montreal and for good reason.
The Canadiens host the NHL All-Star Game, the NHL Entry Draft and have a team that just might be good enough to to compete for the Stanley Cup next spring.
None of this happened by accident. The Canadiens were building for years towards this, their 100th anniversary season.
But there is one problem - has anyone thought of the seasons beyond?
Next year, there are storm clouds gathering in Montreal. Ten players on the roster will become unrestricted free agents next summer, including forwards Saku Koivu, Alex Tanguay, Alex Kovalev, Robert Lang and defenceman Mike Komisarek.
And that list doesn't include Christopher Higgins, Tomas Plekanec and Guillaume Latendresse, who will become restricted free agents looking for big raises.
The Canadiens are already a capped team now, so no matter what happens next summer they're going to have to make some tough decisions. And no matter who they decide to keep, they're going to have to let some important players go.
Of the players mentioned, seven of them account for Montreal's top eight scorers this season. So there are going to be some big holes left behind.
But in Montreal right now, they would rather talk about the present. And why not?
The Canadiens haven't won the Stanley Cup in 14 seasons - the longest drought in franchise history. And who knows - maybe next spring, Canadiens players will be sipping champagne from the silver trophy.
Whether they do or don't, there will be a major hangover for the team's 101st season.

PHOENIX (AP) - A 24-year-old man who was base jumping off a mountain in Phoenix suffered injuries when he struck rocks on his way down.
The Phoenix Fire Department says the man's chute opened after he jumped off Camelback Mountain on Sunday morning, but he struck rocks about halfway down the mountain and then fell 60 to 80 feet.
The extent of his injuries was unavailable.
He was being transported to a hospital.
Base jumping is the sport of jumping off fixed structures and using parachutes to break the fall.

(CBS News) Another patron of the Heart Attack Grill has reportedly fallen ill during a meal at the hospital-themed Las Vegas restaurant.
CBS affiliate KLAS-TV Las Vegas reports that a woman is recovering after collapsing unconscious and suffering a possible heart attack at the restaurant that serves up fatty fare.
Restaurant owner "Dr. Jon" Basso told KLAS-TV the woman was "doing everything society tells you not to do" Saturday night at the restaurant, including eating high-calorie foods, drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. Her current condition or cause of the medical episode was not immediately known but Basso said the woman is expected to recover.
If the incident sounds familiar, in February a man suffered a heart attack and had to be taken out in a stretcher while eating the restaurant's 6000-calorie "Triple Bypass Burger."
At the time, the restaurant offered free eating to people who weigh more than 350 pounds and justified that with a tongue-in-cheek mission statement: "Doctors agree that continually cycling body weight up and down is one of the very worst things a person can do to themselves. That's why our program is focused upon keeping your weight in an extremely stable, gradual, and constant upward slope."
Other fatty foods served up by the restaurant include "flatliner fries" or a four-patty quadruple "bypass burger" you can add 20 strips of bacon to for a small fee.
Following the February heart attack - which some restaurant patrons thought was an act, snapping pictures with their cell phones - Basso told CBS This Morning he's just honest about serving unhealthy food.
"Who doesn't want to risk a little danger every once in a while," Basso told CBS This Morning. "If I can put danger back into hamburgers, all the better."
But commenting on the February case, Dr. Sohail Anjum, a cardiologist at the Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas, said, "I don't think hamburger bite or eating a whole hamburger can give you a heart attack."
