Bowen Therapy ~ Reiki ~ Shamanic Medicine ~ Therapeutic Touch
Jason Cook ~ Linda English
You brush your teeth each day, and take baths or showers, exercise and eat well. But part of being healthy has to do with maintaining a healthy energy system. Electromagnetic fields are everywhere, and permeate everything. Daily you are subjected to hydro EMF's, cell phones, microwaves, wiring in your home, computers, and a host of other EMF's. Learn more about the danger of EMF's
Being in close proximity to other people (especially negative people!) or simply watching the evening news can have detrimental effects on your energy field, too. Learn more about your energy field, how it works, and how energy therapies can help you
Variations of energy therapies include Usui Reiki, Karuna, Imara, Blue Star, Shamballa, Gendai-Reiki-Ho, Threshold Reiki, Seichim. Ki Kou, Zenith Omega, Qi Kung, Quantum Touch, Shamanic Healing, Healing Touch, Therapeutic Touch, and Magnified Healing
Although there are many different Energy healing modalities, they all work basically the same. Energy therapies simultaneously address emotional, psychological, energetic and physical. That's because you ARE energy. Your body is really comprised of billions of vibrating atoms!
On a physical level, your own electro-magnetic energy naturally draws hemoglobin (iron + oxygen) to injured tissue, thereby increasing oxygen exposure for tissue regeneration and lower pH
At the atomic level, your own electro-magnetic energy excites photons in the cells, causing energy impulses that travel instantly throughout the body to interact with regulatory systems such as the endocrine and nervous systems. Beneficial neuropeptides are released including endorphins, which are natural pain killers. Toxins are released from cells. The body's immune functions and rapid self-healing mechanisms are induced.
Because they stabilize your electromagnetic energy, Energy Therapies help to reduce free radicals. Every atom's optimum level of vibration is restored. The result is harmonization of your entire body. Healing accelerates by as much as 250%! You feel relaxed, alert, and vitally alive.
Quite often an emotional blockage or trauma will release during or after treatment. This is particularly helpful for people who have undergone trauma through an accident or injury, or health issues that stem from an emotional or psychological cause.
Excellent to reduce stress, heal emotional trauma, and to promote recovery or minimize side-effects, energy therapies are an ideal adjunct to traditional medical procedures such as surgery or cancer therapy. They can be performed anywhere, with or without the use of high-tech devices, and generally do not require disrobing. In some cases, practitioners may not even physically touch you. Quantum energy Therapies are also excellent for treating animals.
Training and certification requirements vary for each modality. Please ask each practitioner about their qualifications

Bowen Therapy applies gentle rolling pressure over skin, fascia, muscles, nerves, ligaments and tendons, with short pauses between moves. This soothing restorative technique connects the fascia with the nervous system to ease inflammation, pain, mobility issues, respiratory problems, digestive disorders, gynecological problems, stress, and lymph circulation. It provides overall well-being. A series of 3 treatments is generally required. Exercises, natural remedies and nutritional supplements may be added to reduce inflammation, relax muscles and promote healing
There are 2 levels of accreditation: Practitioner & Therapist. Bowen Therapy is also effective for mobility issues in animals. Separate certification is required
Using their body's own electro-magnetic field like a magnet, practitioners gently pass their hands over a person's body with or without touching it. Photons in the cells respond, causing energy impulses to travel instantly throughout the body, interacting with regulatory systems such as the endocrine and nervous systems. The body's immune systems and rapid self healing mechanisms are induced. Beneficial neuropeptides are released, including endorphins, which are the body's natural pain killers. Oxygen-rich hemoglobin is attracted to injured tissue, thereby increasing oxygen exposure for tissue regeneration
Clothing does not interfere in a treatment. Treatment is relaxing and entirely painless. The only sensation may be some tingling

Shamanic medicine is different from most types of healing in that it teaches the individual how to heal themselves through connecting with the natural world, as well as involving the use of healing herbs and smoke practices. While shamanic practices differ depending on where the practitioner was taught, the overall goal is always the same; using the healing power of nature and awakening the inner natural being of the afflicted.
By connecting with the natural realm, a patient of shamanic healing can learn to heal themselves on a molecular level, and in some cases even connect with the spirit world. A shaman's goal is often to have those they are treating learn their true self, and by doing that connect with their ancestral roots.
For some, shamanic medicine is the only true form of healing, and a more naturalist approach to treating the human body and soul. Free of any unnatural chemicals, and using the wisdom of the ancient practitioners from times long forgotten, shamanic medicine is one of the healthiest and most wholesome approaches to healthcare.

Therapeutic Touch is a quantum energy healing technique that is entirely painless. It was developed in the early 1970's by Dolores Krieger, Ph.D., R.N., an American Professor of Nursing, and her mentor, the late Dora Kunz, a well-respected "natural" healer. Therapeutic Touch was first conceived as an extension of professional nursing care and marked the first time in history that 'laying-on-of-hands' was taught as a full-time university subject.
Twenty-five years of effective clinical practice and solid research has resulted in mainstream acceptance of Therapeutic Touch. Today there are more than 18 Ph.D. Theses on Therapeutic Touch and 22 Post-Doctoral Therapeutic Touch Research Projects. Many Canadian hospitals recognize Therapeutic Touch and allow its use. The Order of Nurses of Quebec, the Ontario College of Nurses and the Victorian Order of Nurses (VON) have accepted Therapeutic Touch as a nursing modality. In many Canadian hospitals it is used in Oncology and Maternity, with organ transplant, in Intensive Care Units, and on the wards.
Therapeutic Touch promotes relaxation, reduces anxiety, and often diminishes pain, making it especially useful in hospice work. There are no harmful side-effects, and some benefit is always attained. Local Therapeutic Touch Networks offer FREE treatments by students who are working on their practicum.

Israel and Hamas on Monday resumed indirect discussions over their fragile cease-fire in the Gaza Strip, a top Hamas official said, but he warned that violence could flare again if negotiators did not quickly come to an agreement.
In an interview with reporters in his suburban Cairo villa, Hamas deputy political leader Mousa Abu Marzook said the militant Palestinian group would continue to seek weapons even as an Israeli delegation arrived in Cairo to begin talks over the second stage of a cease-fire agreement reached last week. He also said Hamas would not rule out renewed rocket attacks if Israel decided to attack Iran.
Abu Marzook said the Monday talks marked the second round of negotiations since the Egyptian-brokered cease-fire took effect Wednesday. He said that the session would focus on Hamas's demands to loosen Israel's six-year blockade on the Gaza Strip but warned that protracted negotiations could shatter the delicate truce.
"If they stall too much in any of the issues that have to do with my freedom and breaking the siege, the field is open," he said.
Israel tightly limits the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza, including a ban on the import of most construction materials — measures that rights groups and local officials say have crippled Gaza's economy and hindered reconstruction efforts in the wake of a 2008-09 Israeli ground invasion.
Israel also enforces a blockade on Gaza's seaport and a 500-meter buffer zone inside the border, encompassing 17 percent of Gaza's land, in which trespassing Palestinians are often shot, according to the Gisha Legal Center for the Freedom of Movement, an Israeli human rights organization.
Lifting these restrictions are key to Hamas's demands as the negotiations move forward, Abu Marzook said.
Israel and the United States have sworn off direct negotiations with Hamas, which they label a terrorist organization. Hamas and Israel have been negotiating indirectly through Egyptian messengers, Abu Marzook said.
But previous cease-fires have broken down, and the Hamas leader said the group would continue to acquire weapons, even as the two sides struggle to negotiate a long-term peace.
Abu Marzook said Monday that the Palestinian resistance movements must "defend themselves."
Israel has vowed to halt Gaza militants' stockpiling of weapons, including Iranian-made long-range rockets. During the conflict, militants for the first time hit targets near Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, showing off newly powerful capabilities that brought threats closer to Israel's population centers.
Israel routinely bombs tunnels that militants use to smuggle weapons, food and other commercial goods from Egypt's poorly policed northern Sinai region. Egyptian guarantees to put a halt to the weapons traffic was a key factor in Israel's willingness to stop its assault on Gaza.
But Abu Marzook said Egypt would not be able to end smuggling across its border.
"There is nothing to be done," he said, adding that weapons would make their way to Gaza no matter what legal barriers are set to keep them out.
Some of those weapons have been from Iran, Hamas leaders have said, suggesting that a relationship that frayed between Hamas and the Islamic republic earlier this year is on the mend.
Ties had suffered after Hamas leaders abandoned their longtime base in Damascus, another close Iranian ally, amid Syria's worsening civil war.
On Monday, Abu Marzook criticized Iran for supporting the embattled regime of Bashar al-Assad in Syria, and he urged the Islamic republic to get in line with the democratic sentiments of the Arab Spring.
"Iran must realize that there is a public opinion in the Arab world, so it must remedy its positions so it does not lose the Arab world because of its stances on the region's crises," he said.
But Hamas officials have also signaled in the days since the cease-fire came into effect that the group's relationship with Iran remained strong.
Gaza Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh and Hamas political leader Khaled Meshal both thanked Iran last week for providing Gaza's fighters with the weapons they used in their latest battle against Israel.
And Abu Marzook did not rule out the possibility that Hamas would use those weapons to back Iran in a war against the Jewish state.
"These hypothetical questions are difficult to answer," he said. Hamas would condemn any Israeli "aggression" on another country. "But how we will act about this aggression — this is something that would undoubtedly be decided in its own time."
The eight-day Israeli assault on Gaza "was like reconnaissance for Iran," he said, because it showed Israel's military playbook.
Abu Marzook said the conflict had demonstrated that Palestinian Authority head Mahmoud Abbas, who runs the West Bank, was a largely irrelevant figure.
"People eventually head to the actor in the battle," Abu Marzook said, referring to Hamas and its fight in Gaza. "Why would people head toward him?"

This website was created for the purpose of sharing, as concisely as possible, my work to date as it applies to my case for tenure and promotion to Associate Professor at Indiana University Kokomo. I am including links below to the following recourses:
- My CV
- My Creative Agenda
- My Teaching Philosophy
- The Indiana University Kokomo criteria for promotion and tenure
- The Humanities Department criteria for promotion and tenure
- My portfolio website
My Case for Excellence in Research / Creative Work
According to the Humanities Department Promotion and Tenure Guidelines, the standards for excellence by faculty producing creative works state: "the candidate must provide documentation that establishes a record of achievement using the items outlined in 1.2.4." This is followed with, "Documentation should be provided for approximately 6 to 10 achievements during the period under review for promotion with tenure, with at least three meeting the criteria for excellence as defined in 1.2.4." (3.12.A.b).
In this website, I am including documentation of 20 creative research achievements which merit excellence as outlined in 1.2.4 and which also demonstrate a planned progression towards establishing a national reputation in my area of creative research and practice. Included in these are 12 national juried exhibitions, 2 international juried journal showcases, 5 international exhibitions, and one invited screening of note. During this period, I was also a recipient of an Indiana University New Frontiers of Creativity and Scholarship Grant ($18,500).

When you sit down to a delicious meal, the last thing you want to think about is counting calories. But with a little creativity, you can trick yourself into eating less. When it comes to eating better, less is definitely more.
Things that are really good don't need to be gigantic. That's why espresso is served in a "shot" rather than a "Big Gulp," and truffles are bite-sized instead of supersized. Unfortunately, most of us have lost sight of this and think bigger is always better.
Downsizing your portions is not difficult if you approach your food in this way. Here are a few strategies to help you go for quality over quantity:
• Pay attention to your food, and savour every bite. Eat sitting down, but not in your car or while watching X-Factor. It's a lot easier to mindlessly wolf down enough food to feed a small army when you're not paying attention to your food.
• Converse over your meal and have fun. This in turn will slow you down, which is good since it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to tell your brain that you've eaten enough.
• Cook more. Get to know what real food tastes like - cooking from scratch doesn't have to be difficult. You'll find that spending time in the kitchen gives you a greater appreciation of what you're eating. Plus, your house will smell wonderful.
So much goes on around the table while you're eating, and so much of it can affect your appetite. Subtle cues like lights, temperature, aromas, the shape of a wine glass, a whiff of espresso, can all tempt you to overindulge.
But a recent analysis of dozens of studies on "food ambience" (those factors around you that tickle the senses) suggests you don't have to give in. Instead, experts say, you can make the environment work for your waistline.
Here's how:
Look before you eat: The brighter the lights, the quicker you'll eat. Physiologically speaking, light intensity revs up the nervous system, and you'll often respond by eating too fast.
Result: You'll end up stuffing your stomach before your brain can tell you that you're full.
Unfortunately, dim lighting is no solution, because it can hide signals of satiety. We lose track of what we have eaten. That's why people tend to eat more in candlelit restaurants; they linger, picking at their plates even if they're full.
The antidote: If you have to eat in a brightly lit restaurant like a fast-food joint, eat slowly. In dimly lit restaurants with more romantic settings, pick one: drink, starter or dessert. Keep yourself attuned to your feelings of fullness. When you're full ask your waiter to take away the plates so that you don't continue to pick.
Dine on the patio: As a general rule, the hotter the climate the less people eat. Heat slows down your metabolism so your energy needs and your hunger decline as the mercury rises. Use that to your benefit.
The smart strategy: Ask for an outdoor table whenever the weather cooperates. Out where it's balmy, people seem to prefer food that's less dense and usually less caloric (salads instead of mashed potatoes, for example).
Tame your tableware: Supersized portions can make you think bigger is normal. That may override your "I'm full now" body sensors. Just as influential are the size of your plate and the shape of your cup. It's called the size-contrast effect. Bigger plates trick people into believing they're getting smaller servings.
So do short, fat glasses. Even bartenders -- renowned for their ability to eyeball a shot of alcohol accurately -will fill a shorter glass with up to 31 percent more than they pour into a tall, narrow one.
The solution: Avoid jumbo plates, and choose taller, thinner glasses.
Play hard to get: People tend to eat almost everything you put in front of them. Convenience is one of the strongest triggers for overeating and snacking.
The answer: At family gatherings and other occasions when overeating is likely, serve the food and then put the serving platters on the counter or even in another room. Buy fewer ready-to-eat snacks so you'll have to work harder to nibble when you're not hungry.
Parcel out snacks into single-serving resealable bags and avoid buying food in bulk. What if you just can't resist the buy-one-get-one-free offer on biscuits? Stow away the extras in the back of the cupboard. Out of sight, out of mind, out of body.
Every meal can't be a fine dining experience but if you think more about what and how you're eating you'll be more likely to eat less and enjoy it more.

Thorin peered into the encroaching shadows, stars still dancing in his vision from the abruptly vanished firelight. In the previous scuffle the first time they confronted the elvish revellers, the company had eventually been able to find one another. Thorin wondered if their second plan, for him to go first so as not to surprise the elves into running away, might have been foolish. It would not shock him if the whole thing had been a scheme by the blasted creatures to draw them off the path, hungry and desperate as they were, and then separate them.
So here he was, stumbling in the pitch-black, calling out Dwalin's and Balin's, Fili's and Kili's and Bilbo's names in succession, to no avail. There was no answer, no sound to indicate he was anything other than hopelessly alone, and helplessly lost. He had no way of knowing if his fellows were safe, or even alive. As far as he could tell, they were far away, way out of earshot.
Standing still would do no good. Sitting on the ground and hoping someone might stumble across him in the dark would do no good. So Thorin turned until he had what he felt might be the right direction, and began to walk.
It slowly and ominously occurred to him as he trudged along that something was wrong. The forest was as forbidding as it had been since they stepped in, and he had the same conflicting feelings of being both utterly alone and also followed by thousands of eyes, but this was something else. Something new, or changed. Something in the weight of his own step.
Thorin checked to make sure he had his axe. It was there. His heavy coat, his belt, even the light but assuring weight of the key around his neck, all was where and as it should be.
Except for the sword.
Thorin stopped dead still as he drew what should have been Orcrist. It wasn't. The scabbard and the hilt were the wrong shape and width, and Thorin was dumbfounded as to how he could have failed to notice up until now. At the very most, it could only be half Orcrist's size. He must have picked up the wrong weapon the first time they tried to talk to the elves. What and who's was this sword then, if it wasn't Orcrist? A dagger, rather than a sword. Well-made, but not dwarf-made. He had no way of having acquired it from one of the elves, they had all vanished as soon as he stepped in amongst them. He couldn't recall any of the dwarves in the company carrying such a weapon. He ran his fingers over the flat of the blade. Odd. The smooth swirling pattern on the blade was the same as Orcrist's, but …
Oh. He couldn't recall any of the dwarves in the company carrying such a weapon, because no other dwarf in the company did carry such a weapon. But Bilbo did.
This was Bilbo's sword.
Thorin sat down, exasperated, and rubbed a hand over his face. He had fought with small swords before. Angry as he was for having lost Orcrist and picked up this tiny dagger, that wasn't a problem. If he was confronted by a denizen of the forest, he would be able to defend himself. But if Bilbo hadn't picked up Orcrist when Thorin picked up … whatever this toothpick was called, then Bilbo was weaponless. And even if Bilbo did pick up Orcrist, it was considerably heavier than his own sword, and not double-edged. He had seen the way Bilbo swung that small sword about when he had come rushing to Thorin's defence, what felt like so many months ago. He doubted Bilbo was capable of wielding any weapon properly, let alone Orcrist.
Thorin pushed the thought to the back of his mind. He would find the others, or at least try, and they would sort out the business then. He stood and continued to walk, now even more troubled than before, which was quite frankly extremely troubled, so much so that he did not notice in time when the ground began to give way. A soft rotted plank of wood gave way under his foot, and he tumbled head-first and rolled down a decline covered in dead leaves and dotted sparsely with roots and thin trees. He tried to grab at the skinny branches, but he either missed or they came off in his hand. When he saw what was at the bottom of the decline, Thorin tried to claw his way to a stop, but not quickly enough. He hit the water, and half a second later, Bilbo's sword thudded along the decline after him and landed on his face.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I have no idea if Thorin lost his axe in the goblin's cave, so I included it here just in case.

The Biancocelesti supremo is keen to bolster the squad at the end of the season and revealed that Edy Reja's future at the club is not in doubt
The Italian capital club's hopes of finishing in the top three and securing a Champions League place have taken a serious blow after they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Novara early on Wednesday.
However, Lotito revealed that coach Edy Reja's long-term future at Lazio is not in danger and insisted that the club will focus on strengthening the squad in the summer.
"Reja's stay has never been a problem for us, we want to continue with our project," he told Sky Sport Italia.
"We hope to sign two or three champions so that we can also compete in Europe.
"Miroslav Klose? From what we know, he could feature in the last two matches, but it is still not a guarantee."
Lazio will visit Udinese in a key Serie A fixture on Sunday.

This is getting interesting. Remember, as I wrote October 3, when the Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) on June 23 adopted the 2009 Modified General Project Plan (MGPP), the arena was described as 850,000 square feet, as it had been in 2006.
On September 9, after the comment period on the MGPP had closed, Forest City Ratner announced that the new design, by Ellerbe Becket and SHoP, was for a 675,000 square foot arena.
On September 17, the ESDC Board affirmed the MGPP and the press release cited a 675,000 square-foot arena.
Now structural engineer Thornton Tomasetti, on its page for the Barclays Center, states (right) that the arena would be 750,000 square feet.
Either they're referring to some design that was not actually announced or the arena has already been enlarged in some way.
There was no mention at the ESDC board meeting of a smaller arena. And the project site plan that was part of board documents again stated that the arena would be 850,000 sf, thus contradicting the press release.
So those officially overseeing the project apparently don't know. And if Forest City Ratner really does plan a 750,000 square foot arena, shouldn't they say so?
Sunday, January 10, 2010
So, how big would the Atlantic Yards arena be? Structural engineer says it would be 750,000 square feet

Eagles set for Barons after win over Mules
Cocalico took care of its business Friday night and Manheim Central did as well, setting up what figures to be a juicy first-place showdown Friday night in Manheim.
The Eagles had no problems Friday at home against winless Solanco as Spencer Moser rushed for 179 yards and a pair of scores to pace the Eagles in a 43-7 victory.
All told, Cocalico rolled up 336 yards on the ground in jumping out to a 43-0 lead after three quarters before calling off the dogs.
Moser got the Eagles going on their second possession, racing 85 yards down the sideline for the game's first score.
Then after a Solanco fumble, quarterback Brock Gosling made it 14-0 when he scrambled in from 20 yards out.
Cocalico would eventually double that lead to 28-0 before the half as Gosling hit Mitch Shober on a 10-yard touchdown pass before Moser broke another long one, rambling 74 yards for the score.
The Eagles (4-1 overall, 2-0 section) then added the finishing touches to this one with a pair of Jhett Janis touchdowns of 13 and 33 yards in the third to make it 43-0 and invoke the Mercy Rule.
Solanco did get on the scoreboard late as quarterback Caleb Groff scored from five-yards out.
As for this Friday's big game in Manheim, the Barons are coming off a 69-7 drubbing of winless Lebanon Friday night.
Like Cocalico, Manheim Central is 4-1 overall and 2-0 in Section Two play.
Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. More EAGLES, page B-4

Ready for the weekend? Well, you might think you are, but not until you download this DJ mix by local mix-master Sean Drake, also known as Mister Drake. Formerly a resident DJ at Pawn Shop Lounge, Drake has been away from the music game for a while. He made his return a few weeks ago when he celebrated his birthday at Back Door Bamby at the Vagabond, dropping plenty of house-y grooves and indie-dance staples.
Maybe that short stint reignited Drake's passion for DJing because he returns tomorrow night at the Vagabond with Heidi and Audiofly. The Get Physical beauty should be reason enough to stop by the Overtown locale, but for those of us with fond memories of partying between Pawn Shop's trailer and thrift store knick-knacks might appreciate the extra nostalgia.
Still, if your expecting a open format set from Drake these days you'll be sorely disappointed. He has successfully abandoned the middle-of-the-road "genre" for deep groove and house. Check it out!

|Property type
Newly renovated 3500 sq ft 5 bedrooms ,4 bathrooms, new pool under lanai. House is next to fine shops and restaurants, 5 min walk to Lido beach. Fully furnished, all brand new as of Nov 09.
Walk to St Armands Circle, Lido Beach, 5 min drive to downtown Sarasota with theater, opera, more restaurants and entertainment.
Keywords: Single Family Home
We stayed in this lovely home and loved every moment of it!!Very spacious, clean!! Nice pool!
Owner was very nice to deal with!!
I plan on returning!!
Our family of 14 found this home to be a dream come true!! How wonderful to be able to walk to a beach of white sand with shelling, swimming, sunning and playing in the surf wonderful activities. We also enjoyed being able to walk to restaurants and a delicious ice cream parlor.
Walking to church was also possible because it was less than 10 minutes away at a leisurely walking pace.
The house provided ample space for table games, a small delightful swimming pool , and just relaxing.
The downstairs bedroom was perfect for grandparents with the younger generations taking the upstairs bedrooms.
The owner communicated with us right away and was available for any of my questions. Our group consisted of 5 adults and 3 grand kids. Our son arrived on the last three days. The location and quiet neighborhood were awesome. The home provided privacy and enjoyable atmosphere for our stay. The kids enjoyed swimming in the pool and we each cool beverages as we watched them play. It was just a short walk to Lido Beach, stores and restaurants on St. Armand Circle. There were sunsets that will take your breath away. My husband and I went for early morning walks to St. Armand Circle and Lido Beach. We all went to Lido Beach during early evenings when it was a little cooler and stayed for hours. This was the most relaxed vacation that we've had and it had to do with the large house and location. We hope to rent again next year.
We had a wonderful vacation week, June 13, 2015, in the perfect house for our large family! There was ample room for 4 couples and 4 grandchildren. The home was very nice and the pool was greatly enjoyed. Thank you!
We had three families (consisting of 8 adults and 6 kids) who stayed in this home very comfortably for a week! We arrived a little early and the cleaning staff was there. She was nice enough to let us keep our bags in the garage while we ventured out in the area. Upon our return, the house was clean and the bed linens were left on our beds to prepare. Some were actually still in the dryer. That was good for us as we wanted to make sure things were clean and in order. The owner was a pleasure to deal with, the house was very spacious, fully stocked with all the amenities. The location is perfect! Walking distance to the beach and to St. Armand Circle. However, a vehicle is necessary to be able to go shopping for necessities. Also the pool is on the small side but sufficient. We look forward to returning next year!!
If location is important, then this is the house for you. You can walk to the beach and St Armand's circle within 5 minutes. The house is also quite spacious. We found it to have a bit of a musty smell upon entering, which could be due to being closed from the long winter. The kitchen has a very nice island and lots of counterspace, with four bar stools, which unfortunately are well worn and need some new padding. The pool is nice, but a bit smaller than expected. Most of the afternoon sun is shaded by the house so it's perfect for those wanting a shaded patio. We thought the pool was going to be heated but you must request it apparently. Just a heads up so you don't make the same mistake we did.

We would like to have created the website template where the content can be added and modified by myself easily through Content Management System (CMS) including adding new pages.

Now she is a homicide victim's widow-frightened, desperate and trapped in a web of murderous greed that reaches out from a time of unrelenting terror. And the dark, deadly secrets that hold Else prisoner threaten to ensnare Beau and new partner Sue Danielson as well-and to rock their world in ways they never dreamed possible.

Read an Excerpt
Lying in Wait
Chapter One
I didn't get much sleep that night. I was up early the next morning. Standing on my twenty-fifth-floor terrace, I was drinking coffee when the fall sun came creeping up over the tops of the Cascades. The previous day's rainstorm had blown away overnight, pushed eastward by the arrival of a sudden high-pressure system. The storm had left behind it a layer of low-lying, moisture-heavy fog that clung to the ground like an immense downfilled comforter.
Looking out across Seattle's skyline from that height, I found that the city's streets were shrouded and invisible, as were most of the surrounding low-rise buildings. I could hear the muffled sounds of passing cars and buses in the street below, but I couldn't see them. Now and then I could pick out the sound of an individual car churning down the street, its progress marked by the distinctive hum of pavement-destroying tire studs. Here and there across the cityscape, the tops of other high-rise buildings loomed up out of the fog like so many huge tombstones, I thought. Or like islands in the fog.
Wasn't that the name of a book? I wondered.
No, it was Islands in the Stream. I had never read that particular Hemingway opus. My familiarity with the title came from working countless crossword puzzles.
That's what happens when you live alone. Your mind fills up with unnecessary mental junk like so much multipath interference on an overused radio frequency. Just as static on a radio keeps a listener from hearing the words, stream-of-consciousness interference keeps people who live alone from thinking too much. At least it helps. I had brought my grandfather's ashes home with methe night before. Even now, that discreetly labeled metal box was sitting on my entryway table. Sitting there, waiting. Waiting for my grandmother to decide what should be done with it.
I had asked her if there was some particular place where she would like the ashes scattered, or did she want an urn? Her answer was that she didn't know. She'd have to think about it. She'd let me know as soon as she made up her mind.
Chilled by the damp, cool air, I was headed back inside the apartment for another cup of Seattle's Best Coffee when the phone rang. Beverly Piedmont had been so much on my mind that somehow I expected the call to be from her, but it wasn't. It was Sergeant Watty Watkins, the desk sergeant from the Homicide Squad.
"How's it going, Beau? How's your grandmother holding up?"
"Pretty well, under the circumstances."
"Are you working today, or are you taking another bereavement day?"
"I'll be in. Why? What's up?"
"We've got a case that just turned up a few minutes ago, over at Fishermen's Terminal--a fatality boat fire. If it's a problem, I can assign it to someone else."
"Watty, I told you, I'm coming in. I'll take it. Who'll be working the case with me?"
"There'll be an arson investigator from the Seattle Fire Department, of course. As far as Homicide is concerned, pickings are a little thin. Detective Kramer and two of the other guys are off in D.C. for a training seminar this week. I'
probably team you up with Detective Danielson.!! I was partnerless at the moment. Both of my last two partners, Ron Peters and Al Lindstrom, had been injured in the line of duty. For the foreseeable future, Ron was stuck in a wheelchair, and Al had just taken a disability retirement. Those two separate incidents had turned me into the Homicide Squad's version of Typhoid Mary. I was beginning to feel like an outcast.
For weeks now, I had been working by myself on the cold trail of a twenty-five-year-old homicide. The bullet-riddled skull had surfaced during the hazardous-waste cleanup of an import/export shipping company that had left Harbor Island in favor of cheaper rent in Tacoma. I had pretty well exhausted all possible leads on that musty old case. Frustrated at being exiled to a dead-end case and tired of getting nowhere, I was bored stiff and ready for some action.
Sue Danielson is one of the newest additions to the Homicide Squad. Not only is she relatively inexperienced, she's also one of the few female detectives on the team. Still, a partner is a partner. Beggars can't be choosers.
"Sue Danielson's fine," I said. "Is she there already? Does she have a car, or should I come down and get one?"
"She's right here," Watty replied. "I'll send her down to Motor Pool as soon as I get off the hom with you. She'll stop by Belltown Terrace to pick you up on her way north."
"Good," I said. "I'll be waiting downstairs."
And I was. Sue pulled up to the curb at Second and Broad in a hot little silver Mustang with a blue flashing fight stuck on the roof. Some poor unfortunate drug dealer had been kind enough to equip the Mustang with a 5.0-liter high-output V-8 before unintentionally donating it to the exclusive use of the Seattle P.D. by way of a drug bust. As I crammed my six-three frame into the rider's side, I wished the bad guy had been taller. Short crooks tend to buy cars that are long on horsepower and short on headroom.
"How's it going?" I asked.
"Great," Sue said brusquely.
I was still closing the door when she gunned the engine and shot into traffic just ahead of an accelerating Metro bus that was lumbering down Second Avenue. Seattle police vehicles are supposedly nonsmoking in these politically correct days, but there was more than a hint of cigarette smoke wafting around in the Mustang when I got inside. Despite the cold, the driver's-side window was rolled all the way down . . .Lying in Wait. Copyright © by J. Jance. Reprinted by permission of HarperCollins Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved.

This was my 12th J P Beaumont book and I must say that I have enjoyed each and everyone of them. Jance has the ability to hold your attention from the first page. I have not really read many murder mysteries, but Jance has me hooked.
I love her books, from the plot to the characters. I can never put them down.
It was alright. Seemed to fall flat compared to the other Beaumont books. Missing the spark the others always have. The end payoff was not satisfying and not laid out well. Left some things unexplained and seemed to move on from the climax without a blink. Worth the read only if youre following the series in order. My least favorite yet.

Beauty at the Falls by larsmidnattWatch
©2012-2017 larsmidnatt
Fantastic. using it as a wallpaper on both my screens. looks slightly lacking in detail in 1080p. dunno what it is.. little bit blurry? high compression?
because of the tools used to render the image at at the time it probably was slightly blurry because it took so many hours to render, and would have taken substantially longer to get sharper. Even with newer faster tools it's still an issue, but I do recall when this was made some renders took 2-3 days to finish properly and I really didn't have that much time. My guess is this took several hours, and even that is more than I really like to wait.
Lovely work!
nice scene at the background too.
exelente como no fuese real gracias por inspirarte asi
Man this cool stuff
Nice lower half here.
realy beautiful and so hott..
More like "Booty" at the Falls.
omg look at the damn sexy water fall
Nice! and Big!)

A Columbus man is home but not necessarily resting comfortably after shooting himself in the buttocks Friday night.
Aurora Flight Sciences is expanding its Columbus operation, but a company spokesman declined to give specifics Friday, citing continuing negotiations.
Columbus Air Force Base received the all-clear Friday afternoon after a fire retardant foam spill at the base about 48 hours earlier.
As the birthplace of Tennessee Williams, it is appropriate that Columbus has been selected as the first of three cities in Mississippi to host the renowned writer's powerful play, "Orpheus Descending," Feb. 23-25. The Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival in Massachusetts and Infinite Theatre Co. of New York have teamed to bring the production to the playwright's home state.
When it comes to college admissions, the International Baccalaureate diploma may not make much of a difference, but admissions counselors from the local level to the Ivy League were unanimous in their praise for the program.
They were fresh-faced and eager, half-shy and half-confident in that way only high school seniors can be. They stood in the lobby of Columbus High School last spring and donned blue gowns, graduation caps slipping down over their eyes and falling off their heads as they sheepishly laughed.
Students and faculty were evacuated from Columbus High School this afternoon following a bomb threat, but as of 3:30 p.m., police and bomb-sniffing dogs had found no device on campus.
The world is changing. And those things affecting the Asia-Pacific region will impact all of us, an Air Force general told members of the Columbus community Thursday. "The world ... is reshaping. It will shape our futures as well," said Gen. Gary North, commander of Pacific Air Forces.
A Columbus bank is putting part of its operations in the vacant first-floor space of the building that also houses the Columbus-Lowndes Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The town of Artesia will soon have a new fire station, thanks to a rural development grant. The old station overlooked 112 N. Front St. for more than three decades, but it was demolished in September to make room for a new one to be constructed at the same site.
Columbus police arrested the man accused of burglarizing Watkins Washette on Saturday and stealing a load of laundry in addition to cash from arcade games.
U.S. marshals and Lowndes County sheriff's deputies continue to search for a convicted sex offender this week. Jesse Steven Shelton, 41, was convicted in 1999 of attempted sodomy in the first degree.
The Lowndes County Sheriff's Office arrested three people Monday -- including two juveniles -- in connection with two unrelated home burglaries. Jeremy Marc Adams, 29, of 8061 Highway 12 E. No. 9, was charged Monday afternoon in connection with a home burglary on Woodlawn Drive.
"Does not get along well with others" seems to be routine at Columbus-Lowndes Convention and Visitors Bureau board meetings. The show was on again Monday evening as board members accused, yelled and generally disagreed among themselves and with others.
The general manager of Columbus' new and only Chrysler dealership is glad to add the last line of the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram family to the business. The owner of Columbus' former Chrysler dealership said he is doing well without the line but is still charging the automaker rent for the sign on his property.
JACKSON -- The Church of the Annunciation in Columbus and the Old Byhalia High School Auditorium have been awarded Community Heritage Preservation grants.
The addition of West Point and Clay County to the Columbus-Lowndes Development Link came with an enthusiastic reception. The Link board unanimously approved expanding its reach at Friday's regular quarterly meeting.

Tandoori Chicken
|Chicken pieces
|4 Large
|Lemon juice/Lime juice
|3 Tablespoon
|2 Teaspoon
|6 Clove (30 gm)
|Plain yoghurt
|1⁄4 Pint (150 Milliliter)
|Mustard oil
|2 Tablespoon
|Hot paprika/Sweet paprika
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Ground coriander
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Ground cumin
|1 1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Ground ginger
|1 Teaspoon
|Orange food color/Red food color
|1 Teaspoon (Leveled)
Skin the chicken pieces and gash them all over with short but deep slashes.
Rub over with the citrus juice and 1 teaspoon salt and leave for half an hour or so.
Squeeze or finely chop the garlic into the yoghurt.
Stir in the oil, spices and colouring.
Coat the chicken pieces evenly, cover and leave in a cool place (not the refrigerator if possible) for 24 hours, turning from time to time.
Heat the oven to 220oC/425°F/Gas Mark 7.
Stand a grilling rack in a roasting-tin.
One by one, remove the chicken pieces from the marinade and let the excess drip back.
Lay the pieces on the rack.
Bake for about 30 minutes depending on how big (and how cold) they are.
To give the slightly charred finish of real tandoori cooking, place beneath a grill for a few minutes.
Serve with a salad and wedges of lemon to squeeze over.

Carlo Bargagna has taken a fresh look at the forms of traditional floor lamps, giving them an essentialist flavour for Officinanove and proposing their use in small, often overlooked spaces of modern living rooms.
Demì thus becomes a decorative element for corners and walls, enhancing columns and a luxury alternative to the usual outdoor lights. The load-bearing structure, shaped to bear in mind the slightly jutting skirting boards, makes it possible to fix the floor lamp to the wall.

How to Spend Your First $100 on Retargeting Ads
May 21, 2014 - Get free updates of new posts here
Have you ever wondered how the hell Zappos can show you ads about the shoes you looked at a few days ago? Or how you can continually see my face all over the internet after you visit Monthly1k.com?
Retargeting can be one of the best ways to attract the right customers and capture additional revenue. Even if you haven't done much paid advertising, it's easy to get started.
|(For those that already know what retargeting is and how to set up a campaign, skip to the bottom where I share some advanced strategies)
For everyone else, buckle up to learn more about retargeting, how to get started, and exactly how to spend your first $100 successfully on retargeting.
What is Retargeting and How Does It Work?
Retargeting assumes that when someone visits a product or site that they have some level of interest in it, and that if they are shown that same product or site again through an ad and they click that ad they will likely buy the product or revisit the site.
In fact there is psychological principle called the "mere-exposure effect" which states that you prefer the things that you're familiar with (ht @tommyismyname).
TV ad frequency has been playing on this principle for years, and it's the real reason why it's so effective. When you see the same ad on TV 1,000 times, they are banking on the fact that you'll be so familiar with the company or product that you will naturally like and trust it more.
For most sites, more than 90% of visitors visit and leave without converting or buying.
So how does it work?
When someone visits your website, you add a cookie to that person's browser and as they open new sites and pages advertising exchanges across bid on showing more advertising to that specific person.
The key to retargeting is it is MUCH easier to advertise and sell to people who already like you vs. brand new customers.
Which are you more likely to buy?
A pair of shoes you searched for, read about, and then see again online as an ad.
A pair of shoes you have never seen before that appears as an ad.
The key difference between retargeting and regular advertising is you already KNOW that the customer is interested at some level.
Types of Retargeting Ads
We've had the exact same Monthly1k ads for over a year now. There are 3 types of ads I'd recommend creating:
1: Direct Purchase. Direct image back to your product purchase page. Ours goes to Monthly1k
2: Free. Free product related to your main product. For us, we promoted a free validation cheat sheet.
3: Content advertising. Promote an ad to a helpful article that also promotes your service. Here's the article about how AppSumo was started for $50.
All have worked equally well. I'd encourage you to start off with #1, direct purchase since it's easier to try to get people to buy vs distracting yourself with creating free things or writing content. (Just be sure to have set up ways to capture email addresses.) Also, my face and name is plastered all over these advertisements because we found that a face and name converted better than just a product.
The 5 Most Popular Places for Retargeting on the Web:
1- Facebook newsfeed:
2- Facebook sidebar:
3- Google Image Ads:
Seen on YouTube and 3rd party websites
4- Google text ads:
5- Twitter feed:
At AppSumo, we've seen the most profitable ads on:
1- Facebook sidebar ads
2- Facebook newsfeed ads
3- Google Image advertising
We have not seen profitable ads within Twitter, so I won't cover how to set them up. (Also if you're wondering, we don't do text ads—all of our ads contain images.)
Before showing you exactly how to get started, let's look at the basics of how I've set up my retargeting campaigns:
Noah's Retargeting Campaign
Who I use and why:
I use Perfect Audience (includes $60/credit for a trial) because it's harder to do retargeting inside Facebook via Google's retargeting (they call it remarketing). Perfect Audience can do both FB and Google. It uses the same pixel so that you only have to set it up 1x.
Advertising tip: Other retargeting companies are the same. If you are spending over $1,000 a month, go to your advertising company and mention you're considering using their competitor: AdRoll or Retargeter (both good companies) and the company will likely reduce their margin for you. : )
Also Facebook has it's own new Website Custom Audiences feature, but I want you to start today—and the easiest way to do that is through Perfect Audience.
A good benchmark for retargeting ROI: 200%
That means for every $1 you are spending you are making $2. Why 200%? No particular reason, but it feels good to double your money. Too high means you might be missing out on volume. Too low means you aren't making enough money.
Here are the latest AppSumo numbers:
We spent $4,168.19 and have made $9,365.00. That's a 224% ROi. A bit above target! Woot!
You should always aim for 200% ROI. This may seem high, but if you follow the guide below you'll have the knowledge to reach it. You are wasting your time and money if you can't reach 200% ROI.
I use a retargeting campaign when:
1- People visit AppSumo or Monthly1k, but don't purchase a product
2- We are doing a time limited product launch.
3- Growing an email list and getting a customer's email address
Getting Your First Retargeting Campaign Started
Step 1: Create 'Launch New Campaign':
Step 2: Create your Remarketing list (the people who will see your ads)
1. Name your list FBx (so you can separate out FBX vs newsfeed ads) – Ad group
2. Leave blank so you can always have the people in your retargeting list
3. Add a * so it'll show on every page on your domain e.g. http://okdork.com*. (Or if you're targeting a specific page you can add * after the url to act as a wildcard. This way tracking will work on a url wether is exactly okdork.com/about or has trailing okdork.com/about/?src=buffer.) You can exclude people who've visited a confirmation page or buy page. I'll show you how to do just that later.
Step 3: Add/Paste a Site Tracking Tag in the Header or Footer File.
Create a Facebook Retargeting Campaign:
Step 1: Choose the List to Include (and Exclude)
Caution: If you WANT to exclude people who've bought or only retarget people who've visited a certain page. Go back to:
This is how you can Exclude people who've visited a certain page.
These are the lists I want to include and the group I want to exclude.
Targeting Window: This means showing your ads to people on your list who've visited your site in past X amount of days. Personally I recommend 30 since if people haven't taken action within that time period I don't think they will.
Geo targeting & Dayparting: Please ignore for your first campaigns. You can find more about these in the advanced strategies PDF at the end if you're interested.
Step 2: Spend $75 on Facebook Sidebar retargeting ad
An ad in a Facebook sidebar will get shown way more often versus a newsfeed ad. Remember, repetition and frequency are your best friends in retargeting.
Title: How Noah Kagan did it (How your product or company made or will make a person successful)
Image: Me (We found photos of people convert higher than other images)
Body: I worked at Facebook, Mint and started AppSumo. Want to start your own business? Let's go. (Bold claim with call to action)
Tip: If you don't have a banner or a designer handy, I recommend Right Banners, Thenounproject or Swiftly.com.
Step 3: Spend $25 on 1 newsfeed ad
Sidebar FB ads have been our best ads because, unlike the newsfeed ads, they are shown more often. In the advertising world that's called frequency. And with retargeting it generally takes a decent number of impressions to finally get someone to click and take an action.
Even though you can do Google (web) or Twitter retargeting, they have converted less over the past year for me and this article's goal is to set you up as easily as possible.
Should you exclude people who have already bought my product or service?
There are two camps of psychology about advertising to existing customers:
1. Reinforcement: Some people get buyer's remorse. By continuing to show ads about your company or your product, you can reinforce a the decision the customer made.
2. Exclude: After the customer has bought, save your budget just for new customers who have not bought yet.
I am a fan of camp #1. However, I only show ads to people who have visited the site in the past 30 days. As you develop additional campaigns, Aaron Zakowki recommends creating different lists for customers so that can you can create specific and different messaging after they purchase.
Campaign, Pricing and Scheduling
Retargeting list started, Check.
Ads created, Check
Now it's time to get them live.
Step 1: Create a New Conversion Goal
Conversion Name: Name it
Conversion Type: Add the url of the "Thank You" or other confirmation page a customer visits once they've purchased
Revenue Value: Self-explanatory 🙂
Conversion Counting: Count every conversion
Since your retargeting pixel is on every page and you've listed above which page is the conversion you DO NOT need to add another pixel or do more work.
Step 2 : Set a Weekly Budget
Since you are doing 30 days, commit $75 / 4 = $18.75 as your weekly budget for the FB Sidebar ad.
Campaign Schedule: Run it continuously starting today
Bidding: To start, let it be optimized. What this means is they'll figure out what you need to pay per click to start actually getting clicks. In the advanced section below I'll share some strategies about how you can be more effective with this. In the beginning, set it and forget it.
Note: You will need to create 2 campaigns. 1 for your Facebook retargeting (sidebar) and 1 for your Facebook newsfeed.
Put in your credit card and you are ready.
Retargeting Campaign Optimization
I like reviewing campaigns on a trailing 30 day basis. Because of holidays or fluctuations of traffic, 30 days provides a pretty good amount of data to make changes to your campaign. 7 days is too short.
Tip: After 7 days, put the performance percentage in your campaign name. That'll help you have a baseline for the next time you revisit your campaign performance. I also auto-schedule in my calendar a weekly review of my ads so I don't have to actively think about them as much.
Here's exactly how to optimize a retargeting campaign:
Step 1: Look at spending for all campaigns over the past 30 days
This helps me see if I'm completely sucking or on track with my 200%+ target. Whoo, I am.
Step 2: Break it down into specific campaigns.
You can do this by clicking on the little graph icon (1). Then compare your cost (2) and profit (3). For this campaign we are at 538% ROI which is awesome!
Example: Let's say my ROI Profit / Spent is 150%.
This campaign is not meeting my target goals and #s:
1. So I click edit on the campaign
2. I take what the current CPM in the top left is:
3. Then I figure out what that eCPM (effective cost per thousand impressions) needs to be at to get to 200% ROI.
Stupid math:
$3000 revenue | $2000 cost | $.52 eCPM
Need cost to be at $1,500 for me to have my target ROI.
2000-1500 / 1500 = 33% decrease in cost
And 33% less of $.52 (*.66) = $.34
So I click edit campaign and change to manual bidding to $.34
Then my cost should get me the ROI I want. Hoozah!
Next Steps for Retargeting Ads
Warning: People who are coming from retargeting DON'T buy right away. Otherwise they would have bought or taken action when they were on your site the first time. Commit at least 30 days to see your results. Some people get impatient and think retargeting isn't effective. As well, you are only doing $100 so you aren't losing a ton of money if it all goes badly.
Go to PerfectAudience now and get live then come back and read. If you have a blog and want more subscribers, you can do retargeting. If you sell products, you know this will help. Most sites only get 2% conversion rate so you had 98% of your people leave to never be seen again. Don't let that happen. Noah cares 🙂
At this point if you've never setup retargeting, do it today. It should be one of the best channels you have for increasing your business.
