Have you noticed an improvement in your energy and vitality levels?
As one gets older, many think, in fact almost expect to have less energy and vitality. However, since I started taking Juice PLUS+ ® almost 16 years ago, my energy and vitality levels have noticeably increased.
Have you experienced an improvement in recovering from muscle soreness?
Muscle Soreness Recovery has been a feature and main benefit for me from taking Juice PLUS+® , particularly after my longer runs. Having run 250 Kilometres across the Atacama Desert in March this year and 12 weeks later 250 Kilometres across the Gobi Desert in China, I can tell you it was not an issue, this is quite remarkable. Bearing in mind that I am 56 years of age and running against competitors half my age, some who were suffering from muscle fatigue.
Let me give you an example. Day 5 in these Ultra Races is always "The Long Day". The long day in the Gobi Desert took me 26 hours 56 minutes, helping a young 26 year old man (the age of one of my sons) across the finishing line.
Not only did I not have muscle soreness I did not have it the following day either, not bad for a 56 year old man, on his feet for almost 27 hours, carrying 10Kg on his back in extreme heat and with no sleep. The Juice PLUS+® Fruit, Vegetable and particularly the Vineyard Blend had a major impact on my cardiovascular wellness i.e circulation etc. I also used the Juice PLUS+® Complete to fuel my body to repair, getting my carbohydrate and protein in perfect balance. That wonderful slow release of natural sugars from plant life, from mother nature.
Have you noticed a better resistance to tiredness?
Living a busy life, running my own business, running across Deserts and lot of travelling around the world, you would imagine tiredness would be an issue for me, however tiredness has had little place in my life since being on Juice PLUS+®. I have boundless energy and I often get asked what socket I am plugged into, I say "Juice PLUS+®. "
Have you experienced an improvement in your general well-being?
I have experienced so many benefits from taking Juice PLUS+®, in fact I am so used to feeling "well" all the time, I suppose you could say I have taken it for granted. My immune system is amazing, even tiredness is not an issue.
Have you noticed yourself eating more fruits and vegetables?
I must say I was never a great fruit eater and would only take my usual two or three "cooked" vegetables with my dinner. No real variety and no raw veg. A few months into taking Juice PLUS+® I noticed my food choices, particularly when snacking were changing. Very subtle initially, then more noticeable. I started to eat more fruit and a wider variety of vegetables, more salads, nuts and grains.
Why is Juice PLUS+® important for you?
Juice PLUS+® for me is a "no brainer". It is important for me for several reasons.
(a) At 56 years of age I want to continue to have the "health" that I have to enjoy my family and my life, for many years to come.
(b ) It is so important to me for repair and recovery. As an athlete I create a lot of exercise induced oxidative stress, not good, so having 26 servings of raw food in my bloodstream, my antioxidant level soars and my free radical damage is reduced.
(c) It is about stacking the cards in my favour. It is about prevention. It is and will always be, "my insurance policy".
Why did you decide to take Juice PLUS+®?
Juice PLUS+® made sense to me after hearing an Irish Olympic swimmer explain the benefits from eating a wide variety of fruit and vegetables, particularly raw and the benefits he found himself. He talked about recovery and repair, about high doses of antioxidants in the blood stream and significant reduction in free radical damage. That day I can honestly say that I took ownership and responsibility of my health.

FANGIRL CHALLENGE → [7/10] Female Characters - Joey Potter
Growing up sucks. Not all kisses are magic, and most boys do not live up to your expectations, but there are those times when everything, I mean love, romance, relationships, it all falls together perfectly and it's incredible. It's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it.

Fantastic flavors! This has become one of our favorite summer dishes when peach season hits. We've even converted a few non-fish lovers with these amazing tacos. Way to go Cooking Light!
Tilapia Tacos with Peach Relish
badams Posted: 01/06/09
sbburris Posted: 03/12/10
Quick, decent meal. I bought pre-made mango salsa at HEB to cut down on prep time. Great for a Monday night when you're just getting into the swing of things. Didn't feel like there was enough of the breading for the fish or it didn't coat that well, but it turned out to be a decent dish that I would make again when time-constrained.
AZtoHI Posted: 09/23/10
So good! I grilled the fish and it was amazing. Still have some of the, oh so good, Peach Relish. We are going to have this again tonight for dinner (my husband's request)!
AmyRadish Posted: 03/20/11
Oh my yum! I made a few changes, most particularly because I can't stand cilantro, but I'm looking forward to making this one again. Check out my full review at http://alittlenosh.blogspot.com/2010/07/tilapia-tacos-with-peach-relish.html
shakespeare6710 Posted: 04/25/11
I'm not much of a fish fan, but I really wanted to like this dish. The fish just needed something. I wish I had seasoned it more before tossing in the breadcrumbs. The peach relish would have been really good if I had not mistaken parsley for cilantro--oops. I would make the relish again, but not the fish.
MRupp33 Posted: 07/23/12
Wonderful summer recipe when peaches are in season! I served these with sour cream on top as well which was a nice enhancement. I coated the tilapia in a little olive oil, salt, and red pepper prior to coating in the panko. After I took the fish out of the oven, I hit it with a little more salt, red pepper and fresh lime juice to give it some extra flavor. The relish is so flavorful!! Overall, this is a delicious, light, and wonderful summertime meal. I will certainly make this recipe again!
Liz525 Posted: 12/27/12
The peach relish is delicious. The fish is tasty, but it is a bit difficult to get as much breadcrumbs to stick as I would like.
LindsayUzzie Posted: 06/08/13
would have liked the fish to be a little crispier, but otherwise it was fantastic. I added a simple guac (just avocado with lemon, nothing fancy) and some homemade habanero hot sauce. the tacos were missing a "crunch" so I think next time I'll top with some shredded cabbage, as well. my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed these... he's snacking on the leftovers right now!
stellacorona Posted: 12/03/13
salsa was great! used 1 cup pineapple along with the cup of peaches.
TXLisa Posted: 06/08/14
Thought the size of the slices of tilapia would be too big for tacos, so I cut it into smaller pieces. Agree with other reviewers there's nothing to make the panko stick, but just proceeded with what did stick. Might be better if it was more coated. I loved the peach salsa but kids thought it was too sweet (I love peaches).
JenniferB Posted: 06/30/14
I made it exactly as the recipe said, no changes, and it was absolutely delicious!

Wendy Haight
Professor; Gamble-Skogmo Chair in Child Welfare and Youth Policy
Ph.D., University of Chicago
B.A., Reed College
Office hours:
Please e-mail for an appointment.
Areas of Interest
I am broadly interested in cultural variation in socialization practices and their impact on children's psychosocial development. My recent research has focused on child welfare-involved families including those from rural, drug-involved U.S. families, and children with maltreatment histories who are in care in Japan.
Research Interests
I received my BA in Psychology from Reed College, where I was first exposed to social science research. I went on to study developmental psychology at the University of Chicago, where I received my PhD, and then completed a two-year NICHD post doc in developmental psychology at the University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign. My education in Social Work began with my attraction to the breadth of interdisciplinary research and social scientific research strategies employed by social work scholars to address problems of social justice. I have spent the last 16 years at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign School of Social Work where I conducted mixed-method research with an emphasis on qualitative appropaches. My research includes investigations into how to improve parent-visitations with their young children who are in foster care; designing and evaluating a mental health and substance-misuse prevention intervention for children from rural families involved with methamphetamine and the public child welfare system; and describing child welfare systems, socialization practices, and children's experiences in Japan and Scotland. I joined the faculty at the University of Minnesota School of Social Work in Fall 2011 to assume the Gamble-Skogmo Chair in Child Welfare and Youth Policy.

He's not really known for his off-the-cuff comedy chops, but President Barack Obama definitely landed a few zingers during his interview on "Between Two Ferns."
Host Zach Galifianakis began, "Sorry I had to cancel a few times… my mouse pad broke last week and I had to get my great aunt some diabetes shoes and…."
He's the most powerful man in the free world, but that doesn't mean President Barack Obama is immune from embarrassing blunders.
During the Women of Soul tribute to Aretha Franklin last night (March 6), the Commander-in-Chief introduced the Queen of Soul by misspelling the title of her hit song "Respect."

Today is the day that Netflix releases the entire second season of "House of Cards," and the Commander-in-Chief is excited to see what's next.
President Barack Obama tweeted, "Tomorrow: @HouseOfCards. No spoilers, please." The Head Honcho also made remarks back in December regarding Kevin Spacey's character Frank Underwood.

It's always a challenge to find that perfect dinner date spot, and it looks like Bradley Cooper finally has it figured out.
Bringing an end to his 22-year reign hosting "The Tonight Show," Jay Leno was on the receiving end of some seriously amazing wishes from many of his celebrity pals.
"SexyBack" singer Justin Timberlake tweeted, "Much love to the one and only @jayleno. Thank you for all the laughs and great times! Also... Can I have a car? No? Ok, cool."

He's always had a certain pop culture appeal, and President Barack Obama even included a "Mad Men" reference in his State of the Union address last night (January 28).
The Commander-in-Chief pledged to end wage discrepancy in America, despite the fact that his own administration pays female employees less than their male counterparts.
He is the Commander-in-Chief, and on Tuesday night (January 28) all eyes were on President Obama delivered his annual State of the Union address.
Just as people all over the country took to social media to share their opinions, celebrities were eager to share their reviews of the speech as well. Check out what the stars had to say on Twitter below!

Herc Crashes Into NBC's LAX!!
It's a drama set behind the scenes at Los Angeles International Airport, from screenwriter Nick Thiel, a "Magnum P.I." vet who wrote five studio films between 1989 and 1996: "The Experts," "Fire Birds," "White Fang," "V.I. Warshawski," "The Associate." It stars Heather Locklear ("Spin City"), Blair Underwood ("Full Frontal"), Paul Leyden ("As The World Turns"), David Paetkau ("Candy From Strangers"), Frank John Hughes ("Catch Me If You Can"), and Wendy Hoopes (who voiced Jane, Quinn and Helen on "Daria").
It's also another shitty NBC clone of "Las Vegas," the only new show NBC brought back from last season. Feh!
But what matters Herc's opinion?
TV Guide says:
But what matters Herc's opinion?
TV Guide says:
… feeble drama, which appears grounded from the get-go. … We've spent more enjoyable hours in baggage claim. …
USA Today gives it two stars (out of four) and says:
When was the last time you had fun just hanging around at the airport? Well, you won't Monday night, either. A mishmash of clichéd characters and clashing tones, NBC's airport drama LAX would be a bad show in any season. Given the travel climate these days, you can add "clueless" to its list of failings. This is a series that needs to find itself quickly, because tonight's premiere is simply, completely, lost. ...
The Hollywood Reporter says:
… Even an appealing cast and superb cinematography can't eliminate the impression that this series was outdated before the first scene was lensed. … the runway for "LAX" would seem to be strewn with obstacles. …
Variety says:
… has yet to pick a proper tonal flight pattern … rather than get into anything too personal, slapstick scenes and emotional heart-tuggers break up the dramatic flow. … the pilot episode overall is confused … The confrontations make for far more compelling viewing than the slapstick, though piling on emergencies can be too much. …
The Los Angeles Times says:
For most of us, LAX, or Los Angeles International Airport, is a place to stay out of — that's why God made Burbank — or get through as quickly as possible. … the series' fundamental cheesiness indemnifies it against its failure to be anything better. Having nothing much on its mind makes ample room for the hackneyed and preposterous. … It feels like a waste of time, but not a vile waste of time. It is not mean, which is a kind of accomplishment nowadays, and if that is the best you can say of it, it's also the worst. …
10 p.m. Monday. NBC.

It goes for a more light-hearted approach, and I found this attitude refreshing considering how so many dramas nowadays are ultra serious crime procedurals (the CSI franchise) or ultra sentimental and self-important (Jack & Bobby). I hope they don't "serious up" LAX after the pilot. I found Heather Lochlear and Blair Underwood, criminally handsome the both of them are, to actually be quite pleasant to watch in this.

by Eternal Watcher
First, the reviewer says Heather and Blair's characters spend their time sabotaging each other so one of them can run the entire airport. Heather Locklear...head of LAX? It would make more sense if she was the mayor on Spin City. I mean, what if there was a real emergency, and the airport's ruined because of their mutual sabotage (the fact they had drunken sex once, and are still trying to live it down, doesn't help) But Heather trying to stop a plane...on the runway...by facing it down? Sorry, the WWE sounds closer to reality to me.

lacking nothing
by Napoleon Park
I didn't plan to like it. I never followed any of Ms. Locklear's previous series. And I don't expect to be seeing this again once the new CSI: Miami season starts.----- The reviews have not been great; one mag jibed "just what you need at the end of a long hard day, an hour at a busy airport", while another site critiqued "The reason the "Airport" movies were popular was because they weren't actually set at an airport.----- To inject a somber note, debuting a series about airport security two days after the anniversary of 9/11 might have been in dubious taste. ----- So I did not expect to enjoy it. Things did not look promising for a minute there. We open with a cliche arial view of the city at night and the ominous droning electronic music with multicultural drums that seems to be on every action show these days. And what's this, a man walking out on a runway, shouting to the oncoming plane like a madman. Must be some test of faith. The plane is bound to miss hi...Oh My God, did you see that! Well, that was sort of unexpected. And then they cut to the theme song. Right on top of a man getting wiped away by a huge airplane, cut to a happy, perky, upbeat (though perhaps slightly ironic?) ditty about blue skies. What the? Where's the awful crap music I was all set to complain about? ----- Okay, the dead guy was the head of this airport. I guess we can assume he had a pretty high stress job. And Heather Locklear and Blair Underwood both want it. So "Head of Airport" is a political post appointed by the mayor? I have no idea if that's true or not, but that's our premise. ----- We meet a bunch of characters. A cute brunette with a drug sniffing dog in the role of the plain looking woman (think Penny from Quintuplets). A nice new guy and his world weary boss. Two heavy set gals.A bungling pair of baggage handlers in orange jumpsuits who spent the rest of the episode chasing a loose dog, complete with wacky Scooby cartoon scenes of them running in opposite directions while the dog runs in a third. ----- Plots? We got plots. An immigrant girl from the Phillipines with a one way ticket may get stood up by the guy she came to meet. The Governors's coming. The dog's loose, a little girl is missing a mommy, The mayor has to decide who gets the job, a team of pilots are missing, then show up - drunk. And, oh yeah, did you think there wouldn't be a bomb? There's a bomb. Of course at one point an air traffic controller throws his arms up and yells "That's it, shut everything down!" Can they do that? ----- So how's it turn out? Less predicatbly than I expected. New young guy from Immigration wants to take in the Phillipine girl. Twist one, his grizzled world weary boss went through the same thing, sent his girl back, and has always regretted it. But (twist two) her friend does show up - late. And (twist three) she gives nice guy her number and says "call me" and turns out not to be so nice herself. A cute bit of pretzel logic I'll admit I didn't see coming. ----- Yhat bomb does go off; full of confetti from a group making a point about poor airport security. This is not a big relief; after all, someone got a bomb into the airport past security, the bomb squad failed to prevent it from exploding, and the bomber got away. ----- They never catch the dog, though the baggage handlers start setting out dog food for the stray; apparently the facility's unofficial mascot until a plane lands on it. ----- Oh, and Underwood and Locklear don't get the job; no one does. They stay in the jobs they have because they make a good team. And they do: the chemistry between them is fine, the cast of supporting characters actors is great. And the show is, wildly inappropriately in places, full of wonderful music. Hey, anytime I can see a montage of people chasing a dog, a bomb-defusing robot and a bunch of drunk pilots all set to "Mystic Eyes" by Them, that's a couple minutes of fun television. Yhat's it. No cutting edge, no shocks (except for that opening suicide - unlike the guy standing there facing the plane, I didn't see that coming either), no high drama or deep statements. Just a bunch of interesting characters (including a fair share of attractive ones) and a bunch of hectic, slightly underdeveloped plots all going on at once, and a half dozen or so way cool songs, and an hour or so of fun, nothing more, but what all do you expect for an hour of free network entertainment? It's light-weight, it's fluff. And unlike all the grim, teeth-gritting histrionics and edge of the seat tension of the major networks wall-to-wall crime and medical shows, it's just plane fun.

Banal, thy name is LAX
by JT Kirk
This show most certainly feels lost at the airport. Oftentimes, it does feel like the plain cousin of NBC's "Las Vegas" while others it seems like an incredibly watered-down "Melrose Place". With Locklear getting a producer credit, one has to wonder how much of this trite mess is actually her fault. I think the worst part though is that it IS watchable in a mindlessly-hollow sort of manner. Possibly its biggest crime though is that, aside from Locklear, this show attempts to spin the network's "Las Vegas" series into an airport but forgets the eye-candy women. Ultimately, LAX is lost at the airport, they're not sure what direction they want to take with the series and it ends up thinly-stretched. What is it with NBC and these expensive-looking shallow prime-time-soap pseudo-dramas this year? Did "Las Vegas" turn the peacock's crank last year and they're hungry for more? Meanwhile, they piss all the new-season money away on Hawaii, Medical Investigation, and LAX with virtually nothing in the way of other new series - drama or sitcom - to fill the gap when these series inevitably fail.

This show blew
by Harrys Man Boobs
I saw show last night. I want to sue Heather Locklear's plastic surgeon. She is starting to look like Joan Rivers. Ooof-fa! Did anyone notice that there are not other women as regular characters on the show, except for the dykey dog handler (played by Jane from Daria) and the fat, black comic relief chicks?

But Ubergeek37, that is all they let us watch at the institutio
by jim
It's either that or more episodes of "Who wants to makeover my wife-swapping millionaire bachelor big brother named Joe?". I have to admit, Las Vegas followed by LAX was a bit much. Too much of the same thing. NBC has to split these up. Oh, and Play D'oh, I think NBC already did the "ragtag team of bus depot employees". Didn't John Larroquette have a sitcom in the early '90s set in a bus terminal? Or is that just another fales memory due to my delusional madness?

No good new shows it seems!
by CyberBeavis1326
I turned this trite boring drivel off after hearing Underwood and Locklear get into a pissing contest about them having drunk sex with a kid present. This show really looked almost like the tragedy that was "Fastlane." I just can't wait to see if "Lost" is as good as it seems next week. Oh By the way, why hasn't there been any news on the fact that McG (the asshole to decent cinema he is) is developing a new show called "Supernatural." It would take a moron not to guess what it'll be about. I'll spoil it for those who haven;t heard. It'll be kinda like "The X-Files", but let's hope he doesn't add his dose of nauseation into it as well.

Having been to the real LAX
by Drath
why the hell would I or anyone want to watch a show about it? Don't you just know some network executive was forced to travel through LAX and thought "gee, this chaos is like ER, we should make a show about this!" That reality show about life in real airports actually sounds less inane, and I HATE reality TV. Networks executives have shit between their ears. What them get George Kennedy to do a walk-on if they survive long enough.

The year of ELO
by Jack Burton
First "Eternal Sunshine", now LAX, "Mr Blue Skies" is the trailer song/theme music of choice! Not really, but it's a cool song and I guess qualifies as counter-programming to the usual stuff. LAX was mostly entertaining, but moved too quickly to get a bead on any of the characters yet. The Customs subplot was lame and I have a hard time thinking baggage workers have the run of the airport, including the ventilation systems, but whatever. I'll give it a couple more weeks. It took Vegas a few to hit it's stride and that's the one show I hate to admit I like.

am I crazy? Almost Sexy, what does an NBC show have to do with the WB cancelling Angel?

Dear Randy Giles:
by Almost Sexy
I would say you've brought up a most salient point; that is, I would if I didn't have such a profound disinclination towards the disingenuous. Perhaps a better question would be "What doesn't NBC have to do with the cancellation of Angel/Wonderfalls/G vs E?" You're probably expecting me to proffer some sort of Charles Manson like answer: "Everythin and nothing, jack. That's what is the difference." But I won't let you maneuver me into that box.

"Just plane fun"? Ack!! Has anyone been on a trip lately? Did anyone ever think, while standing endlessly in lines, getting pulled aside for security checks, or waiting for delayed or cancelled flights..."Wow, what a neat place...I wonder what goes on here behind the scenes?". If you have, you are a fine candidate for a lobotomy. You are also a fine candidate for this uninspired drivel. LAX will end up cancelled...just like my last flight to Dayton.

View-killing windmills: Blame the politicians
What started with a small, 12-turbine project in Lempster in 2008 has turned into a run on New Hampshire's ridgelines by large energy companies that want to cover our hills with scores of windmills. Some of them would reach 400 feet tall, 125 feet taller than New Hampshire's tallest building, City Hall Plaza in Manchester. As the scarring of New Hampshire hilltops accelerates, the politicians who promoted this have a lot to answer for.
In 2007, the Democratic-controlled Legislature passed a bill sponsored by Sen. Martha Fuller Clark, D-Portsmouth, which created the state's Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS). Legislators mandated that at least 16 percent of the state's energy production come from new "renewable" sources such as wind power by 2025 (25 percent from all renewable sources). Suddenly, New Hampshire needed windmills.
The law has cost more than views. Public Service of New Hampshire calculates that the RPS mandate has cost it $58.3 million since 2008. It projects another $19.2 million hit in 2013 alone. Ratepayers bear that burden.
Washington shares the blame. Federal tax credits for power produced by windmills go to huge energy corporations such as Spain's Iberdrola, the company behind several New Hampshire wind farms. A recent study by the Northbridge Group of Concord, Mass., concluded that the tax subsidy "encourages wind developers to locate wind farms with little regard to consumer demand, as long as they can be placed on line and their power brought to market to collect the subsidy," the National Center for Policy Analysis reported this week.
Do-gooders trying to force us to switch from coal to wind power have encouraged the industrialization of scenic New Hampshire ridgelines. That industrialization will not stop until these perverse government incentives are removed.

How I use HabitRPG during school season, aka all the time
I am doing this post right now because there is a contest and I would like to win a thing (if you comment). Chances are, I would have gotten around to it sooner or later, because I like accomplishteering. And I wrote this post awhile back and some said you'd explore HabitRPG. I want to know if you did yet. »

When my youngest son was maybe 2 years old, he crept outside our bedroom door very early one morning while my husband and I were still asleep. I awoke to a deadpan, tiny voice whispering, "Let her in. Let. Her. In. Let her in," over and over and over.
Turns out the cat was pawing at the back door, and he was just informing us it was time to, you know, let her in. But holy shitballs, that wasn't even remotely my first thought. (My first thought was vampires, okay? IT WAS VAMPIRES.)
That was a legitimately spooky moment, but it doesn't even hold a (flickering, ghostly) candle to this hair-raising Reddit thread titled, "Parents, what is the creepiest thing your young child has ever said to you?" Clocking in at over 11,000 comments, the forum is filled with an amazing array of stories ranging from hilariously weird to downright terrifying.
Want to see some of the most unsettling of the bunch? Read on ... if you DARE! *flash of lightning, peal of thunder*
I was tucking in my two year old. He said "Good bye dad." I said, "No, we say good night." He said "I know. But this time it's good bye."
While changing my daughter in front of the open closet door. She kept looking around me and laughing. I asked her what was so funny. She said, "the man." To which I replied, "what man?" She then pointed at the closet and said, "the man with the snake neck." I turn around and nothing was there. I'm afraid to look into the history of my house to see if anyone hung themselves in the closet.
I was on a bus recently and we were stopped outside a walk-in clinic. A little girl in the seat in front of me turned to her dad and said, "Death is the poor man's doctor." And that was that.
I jokingly asked: "What's the best way to get a girlfriend?"
7-year-old's response: "Tell her to be my girlfriend or she'll never see her parents again."
"Before I was born here, I had a sister, right? Her and my other Mom are so old now. They were ok when the car was on fire, but I sure wasn't!" He was maybe 5 or 6 years old? It was totally out of the blue..
My five year old son asked me last week "what do you see through the black circles in my eyes when you're controlling me when I'm at school?"
My 5 year old at the time had night terrors and would scream in her sleep. One night I said "mama's here its okay". She looked right at me still asleep and screamed "mama? But who is that behind you?"
5 year old: "Mommy, when you die I want to put you in a glass jar so I can keep you and see you forever." To which the 6 year old responds: "That's stupid. Where are you gonna find a jar that big?"
A friend of mine's child told him, "Daddy, I love you so much that I want to cut your head off and carry it around so I can see your face whenever I want."
I don't have kids, but once, visiting some friends on a farm, my buddy's youngest girl (5 or 6) at the time, was afraid of the chickens. I tried to explain to her that the chickens weren't there to hurt us but she wasn't having it. So I'm sitting around the fire pit, looking at one of the chickens a few feet in front of me when I feel hot breath in my ear as she whispers: "See. He's always watching."
Walking through a graveyard to "visit" some departed family members, we walked across the grave of a baby boy who died shortly after being born. There's a family relationship, so we know for a fact the mother is still alive. My 4 year old son turned to my wife and said "Why is that baby crying? Why won't his mom hug him?"
I was sound asleep, and at around 6am I was woken up by my 4 year old daughters face inches from mine. She looked right into my eyes and whispered, "I want to peel all your skin off." The backstory here is I had been sunburned the previous week, and was starting to peel. In my sleep addled state however, it was pretty terrifying for a few seconds.
My daughter said to me that there is a woman who watches her watch movies in her room and sleeps on the ceiling above her bed when she sleeps. She also says it does not like me and wants to eat my heart. My kid watches Elmo and fucking Dinosaur Train. Where in the hell did she get this from?
Has your child ever said anything super creepy like this?
Image via Warner Bros
freak I got chills reading most of those.
The other day my kids and I were outside playing and my son turns and says come on grandpa and starts running. He's grandpa died when he was 6 months old and he is turning 4 in a couple months. We live at the house where his grandpa lived and died.
My two and a half year old was sitting in the room one day and I hear her scream. I run into the room where she was sitting and she looks at me and says "it's okay mommy it's just the dead cat!" We've never owned a cat!
the skin one was super creepy but not as much as the man with the snake neck!! OUCH!!!
The last one reminds me of that movie coming out, Momma.
ooooo ive got one! My husband and i inherited an antique bed that had been made by relatives of my MIL a couple of hundred years ago... it was actually shipped here from overseas... it is gorgeous but too small for the H and me so we put it in my four year olds room... the FIRST night she slept in it she woke up screaming/ crying.. i ran to her and asked her if she had a bad dream and she said "no someone was here, he touched my foot." aaaaahhh... i told my husband to get his a$$ in there and check for his creepy family ghosts...LOL

Hare Krishna Convention-2009 In Bangladesh
Hare Krishna, Devaki mataji,
I was one of the fortunate ones to be in this massive sadhu sanga convention. Along with the discourses by all the invited dignitaries, I also got to learn how one should be instrumental in making a festival like this happen, how one can inspire and motivate the devotees to pull out such a big operation based on Srila Prabhupada's guidance and one how one can be so affectionate and motherly towards her juniors raising above cust, creed and nationality. Therefore I would like to offer my humble obeisances and convey my gratitude to this one devotee, the author of this article.
It was a good start to inspire all the devotees nationwide, to take them to the wide arena of KC. I look forward to take part in the upcoming one as well.

Mono 2012
Adam visits Curtis's house to purchase some speakers from an online classified ad, but Curtis's eccentricities, coupled with his possession of only a single speaker, unnerve Adam.
"Mono" created for the 2012 24-Hour Film Race and won 4 awards: Audience Award (Boston), Best Acting Ensemble (Boston), Best Lead Actor (Boston), and Best Lead Actor (Los Angeles). The film was written, filmed, edited, and submitted to the contest in 24-hours in a 3'30" version. A few extra hours of post-production polish were executed for this "director's cut" 6'30" version.

$10 (if you purchase directly from 'inspire yoga')
+ shipping (if you're not picking it up).
If you have been looking for a very gentle introduction to a Yoga Asana practice and have found that many CDs aren't 'beginner enough' this could be the CD you've been looking for. The class was actually recorded at 'inspire yoga' so you hear the sound of the wind and waves in the background.
The CD begins with 'Along The Way', an original composition by Gail & Wayne Slaunwhite, to put you in the mood for your relaxing class.
The CD insert has photos of all asanas (postures) to help you along if you are new to Yoga. It is very basic and the instructions very detailed to help you 'along the way'. The pace is very slow so that you have time to move into each posture and so that your body has time to feel each pose
and get used to it.
After repeated practice with this CD, you should feel confident enough to join a Beginner Class, if confidence was holding you back
from signing up for one.
If you have any questions about anything while using this CD, feel free to email Gail and she will help you 'along the way'.

A little History of The Spoonstudio
Gail & Wayne began The Spoonstudio in the Winter of 2001.
They had an idea for a wooden guitar stand that would
be not only supportive, but aesthetically beautiful as well . They created 'Spoonstands' from a variety of woods, hand-sewing the satin padding, hand-brushing the finish. Spoonstands are presently residing across North America and Britain as well, comforting acoustic & electric guitars, mandolins, bouzoukis, resonators.
The 'Spoons' logo came from a combination of ideas:
Their hand-crafted stands cradled instruments perfectly like
2 spoons conforming in the kitchen drawer, snugly, safely.

also happened to be in the shape of an 's' ...
which Gail & Wayne noticed at the same time.
Spoons cradle things ...hold things ... carry things ...
bring nourishment.
At The Spoonstudio, we hope that everything we do cradles hearts, holds space for people to re-connect with their true nature, helps to carry them through difficult times, and brings nourishment to their souls. Whether it be wood-working projects, music, yoga, meditation ... it's all the art of living.
Jai Bhagwan!
Owner/Operator Gail Fulop is 500hr Certified in the Amrit Yoga Method as well as 200hr Certified as a Kripalu Yoga Instructor & is currently working towards her 'Ayurveda & Yoga Specialist' training throught the Himalayan Institute. She also draws from a variety of experiences & methods of Yoga believing that every 'style' has a myriad of offerings.
(above: Gail with Gurudev, March 2014)
"People come to yoga for different reasons. Most are looking for a way to improve their health. Others are interested in effective tools to manage stress. Still others seek personal and spiritual growth. Yoga offers all these things. It's a practice that revitalizes the body, calms the mind, and deepens self-awareness.
Yoga works its magic by bringing body, mind, and spirit into a state of harmony & balance. Focusing on the sensations that arise as you breathe & move bridges the chasm separating body & mind, allowing you to become fully present in your body. A balanced sequence of yoga postures stretches and strengthens the entire body, releasing the chronic tension that so often dulls vitality. As you conclude your yoga session with deep relaxation, energy naturally flows to the areas of your body most in need of rejuvenation & healing. You leave feeling balanced, energized to resume your life, and naturally motivated to sustain your practice."
Richard Faulds (Senior Kripalu Instructor, Kripalu Ctre.)
"It is a non-secular practice which is open-minded meaning that you may bring your own beliefs in to the practice. Yoga is not a 'religion' or a 'cult' ... it is a science. The 'Science of Unlearning'.
The Kripalu Method was designed by Yogi Amrit Desai, known by his dedicated followers as 'Gurudev' (Beloved Teacher). Gail has been Trained in the 'Conscious Crossover' Techniques of the Amrit Yoga Method Revealed by Chandrakant (John Heisler), Kamini Desai, Dr. Vijay Jain (Ayurveda) and included
direct Darshan (direct energetic teachings) with Gurudev himself.
By Gurudev's definition, "Difficulty in the practice of Yoga is not so much in learning what we do not know, but in unlearning what we have acquired so that what is inborn may manifest. The true practice of yoga is founded on the principle that we are born with every quality and strength we need already present within. These are popularly known as intuition, insight, inner knowing, the inner voice, inspiration, etc. But these capacities, which are the higher evolutionary manifestation of prana, are non-functional or inaccesible when they are suppressed by learned belief systems, concepts, habits and other behaviour patterns and attitudes, and preoccupation with meeting goals and ideals. Therefore the whole practice of Kripalu Yoga is learning how to remove the mental suppressions and inhibitions that keep this higher intelligence from manifesting. Kripalu Yoga is not for acquiring any so-called new knowledge from external sources but to awaken that which is already inborn."
Gurudev continues to refine these principles in the Amrit Method®, an innovative and accessible system that enables one to harness the challenges of life as opportunities to awaken consciousness. Through Amrit Yoga, even novice students can experience the deepest levels of tranquility, and experience harmony with all that life brings. Today, Kripalu and Amrit Method practices are taught by more than 5,000 certified teachers in 40 countries. (To learn more about Gurudev & Amrit Yoga visit www.amrityoga.org)
"Yoga is very popular today, but what is popular is not truly Yoga." Gurudev
"To bring your practice, but more importantly, your life into a complete alignment with your prana ... to connect with your true self & free all mental, emotional, physical, & spiritual blocks ... I have found no better tools than in Gurudev's 'Conscious Crossover Methods' of Amrit Yoga." Gail
Jai Dadaji, Jai Bapuji, Jai Gurudev!
In December 2012, Kripalu Teachers & Students gathered around the world to celebrate Swami Kripalvanandji's Mahasamadhi & what would have been his 100th Birthday. Swami Kripalvanandji is Kripalu Yoga's namesake given by his Disciple Amrit Desai in honour of his most-esteemed Guru whom those who loved him called 'Bapuji'. Locally, we gathered at The Fall River Yoga Center
in Bapuji's honour for asanas & Satsanga.
"To read uplifting books or listen to spiritual discourses is good. But to practice even a little is of the utmost importance. The profound meaning of yoga is understood only by those who study it systematically through personal practice. The day you start to practice, your true progress will begin." Swami Kripalvanandji (Bapuji)
"Like music, yoga has rhythm. In your own practice this rhythm should be personal and specific to you. The pace of your movement should ideally be set by the rhythm of your breathing which may change from practice to practice. And most importantly ... listen to prana ... be in tune with the Witness."
Some Yoga History
Yoga began between 6-10,000 years ago, possibly in the fertile valleys and mountainous areas of what is now Afghanistan. During these ancient times, the practice was shared verbally in the language of Sanskrit, passed on through generations. Today, we repeat the names of postures in Sanskrit to uphold the tradition. It is believed that the 'postures' portion of Yoga helped to prepare the body for long periods of meditation. The goal of reaching 'enlightenment' or 'oneness' can be more easily achieved if the body and mind are balanced in union. "To be alive is to be active and if we want to avoid difficulties for ourselves and others, our actions must be benign and also beyond the grip of the ego. A simple matter really, but how difficult to accomplish in daily life." Georg Feuerstein
The word 'yoga' comes from the Sanskrit root 'yuj' meaning to yoke, unite ... a union.
Hatha Yoga ... a branch of Yoga that requires the aspirant to devote time to physical processes such as pranayama (breath & energy exercises) and asanas (physical exercises).
Karma Yoga ... the Yoga of service to others and your God. The main thrust is the renunciation of fruits of action. Selfless action.
Bhakti Yoga ... the path of love & devotion. Rites, rituals, ceremonies are typically the focus.
Jnana Yoga ... a path oriented towards realizing the eternal in its' transcendent aspect. The Jnana Yogi seeks to uncover his true self, separate from body or mind. By denying what is transient, he hopes to abide in the eternal.
Raja Yoga ... "kingly Yoga", a branch which focuses mainly on meditation. This is a precise system which is accessible to anyone regardless of current spiritual status. It is a science in which each stage accomplished brings an increasing degree of peace & wisdom. Patanjali (author of famous 'Yoga Sutras' around 200BC) is generally recognized as the foremost exponent on Raja Yoga.
Kundalini Yoga ... focuses on awakening the soul's energy (kundalini), up the spine through energy centres called Chakras, activating them.

Please arrive to class at least 10 minutes prior to start time to set-up your spot and get settled. It is disruptive to 'centering' when Students arrive at the last minute or late. Promptness is polite & appreciated. Expect during the first class to spend a few minutes filling out a General Health Form and preparing your Facilitator with any health concerns/questions you may have. We are a 'scent-conscious' environment and ask that everyone respect that. Contact the Spoonstudio for class location details.

"We look forward to working with you and welcome everyone regardless of background. Kripalu & Amrit Yoga are for all ... young/old ... athletic/non-athletic! Our objectives are that you leave class feeling refreshed and looking forward to your next session and that we help to foster in you a love of this ancient practice. You may be suprised at the never-ending benefits of Yoga ...
not just on the mat." Gail

Port Clinton, Ohio - Sgt. Joseph Hein of the U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit holds the lead as day one of NRA's Smallbore 3-Position Championship draws to a close. Hein, who has won the Smallbore 3-Position title two out the last three years, shot a record-breaking score of 1194-81x, surpassing the previous National Championship Record by three points.
