When I made the decision to leave my unfulfilling career, I was struck by how many times I heard the phrase "I wish I could do the same." Of course, having a supportive spouse and savings helps a career transition. But pursuing a non-traditional career is no less risky or scary whether you have a million dollars in the bank or considerably less. Most of the women who said the phrase had no need to "wish." They just needed to find the force within that separates leaders from followers: Courage.
As many of us will likely one day tell our children, "What is right is not always popular, and what is popular is not always right." Sometimes taking a chance means spitting in the face of uncertainty, and shrugging off the naysayers who tell you that you can't or won't succeed. Leading by example takes courage and has nothing to do with your intellect, upbringing, connections, or the size of your bank account.
A lucky few are born with loads of it. Others need to dig a little deeper and find support in those who have succeeded -- for reassurance, guidance and simple comfort that the crazy idea might actually work.
I've had the pleasure of interviewing many entrepreneurial women in my writing endeavors, and I'm always struck by the power of their stories and shared lessons. They aren't celebrities. They weren't handed success on a silver platter. They're just brave working women who had the courage to lead by example and step off the cliff first, for the rest of us to one day follow if we so choose.
Here are a few tokens of their advice that bear repeating, for added support to all the working moms who are living on their own terms and bravely leading by example.
"If you can hang in there and persevere, the seeds you have planted will start to grow."
-- Randi Busse, founder, Workforce Development Group
"It's OK to be fearful, as long as the fear isn't paralyzing."
-- Claudia Gryvatz Copquin, journalist/author/blogger
"Do what you love and what you know. Knowledge is power. When combined with passion, it's the ultimate foundation to your success."
-- Dominique MacPherson and Melinda Marinack, The Mini Social
"Don't be afraid to puff up your chest and proudly declare your expertise."
-- Rachel Honoway, founder Honoway Interactive, LLC
"Know which opportunities are worthwhile and those that require too much sacrifice."
-- Debra Cohen, president, Home Remedies of NY
Whether it is your intention or not, leading by example can have an undeniable inspirational impact on other women. Offer support. Share your secrets of success. You might just find that courage is contagious.
The modern woman is redefining what it means to have a successful career. Rather than feeling torn between climbing the corporate ladder and having a happy family life, many women are choosing to merge the two and transition careers from a traditional role to a more flexible one. Working Mom 3.0 is reinventing the definition of "working mom," as office hours are held at home and revolve around nap times. This column begins by chronicling the experiences of Stephanie Taylor Christensen, a marketing professional turned self-employed stay-at-home mom, writer and yoga instructor, as she strives to redefine "having it all" on her own time and terms |

Today's brilliant idea on How to Make Almond milk in Less Than 3 Minutes—lickety split!—comes from a gfe reader, Thia. And there's no straining or pulp to contend with using her method, I might add!
The Back Story on How to Make Almond Milk in Less Than 3 Minutes …
I shared a blogger friend's video on making almond milk on my gfe Facebook page the other day. I and a few others, including Thia, ending up having a brief discussion in comments on adding sweeteners to homemade almond milk, how much almond milk you get from a cup of almonds, etc. Towards the end of the conversation, Thia dropped a bombshell. A good bombshell. Like a "Why didn't I think of that?" bomb of an idea!
Thia: "If you happen to keep almond butter around, there is a real easy way to make it! One tablespoon of almond butter per cup water. Pinch salt. Sweetener to taste. Shake it up. (Blend, if using dates, rather than a liquid sweetener.) Straining optional, in this case."
Me: "Wow! I love that idea!! Almond butter goes quickly when I have it around, but I do have some right now. Thanks, Thia!"
The Testing …
So yesterday, I grabbed my jar of Maranatha No-Stir Almond Butter, which contains dry roasted almonds, organic unrefined cane sugar, palm oil and sea salt, and tested out Thia's method of making almond milk. (Note that I have linked to Amazon for display purposes only. I can get this almond butter at a much lower cost at my local grocery store. I just bought a jar at my local Wegmans for $5.49. One 12-ounce jar contains about 11 servings, 2 tablespoons each. Once you see the recipe, you can do the math on how many containers of almond milk you can get from one jar.)
Thia said that she used one tablespoon of almond butter for every one cup of water. I found the results from those proportions a bit thin for my tastes, but I had only added a single date because there was already sugar in the almond butter that I used. I upped my almond butter amount slightly to 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon per cup of water. Those results made me happy. Admittedly, this homemade almond milk is not as thick as store-bought almond milk, but it doesn't contain gums, lecithins, or carrageenan, and, frankly, I'm thrilled about that. You see I had stopped buying almond milk because it wasn't agreeing with me. At first, I thought it was because of the almonds, but then I surmised that it was really more about those other ingredients.While Thia says she got the idea for making this almond milk when she added water to clean her "empty" almond butter jar and shaking it around created what looked like milk, I did find this idea elsewhere online. So as is the case with many great ideas, it's not a brand new one. But it was brand new to me and I wanted to share it with you all just in case you had not heard of it either! And Thia and her idea are still the bomb to me, because otherwise I would not have know of this concept and would have continued to be almond milk free. And that would have been sad. Very sad. By the way, you can find Thia and her other easy, "real food" ideas at Pixx Eye View on Facebook.
The Results and Benefits …
I absolutely love that I can make almond milk on demand now in whatever amount I want and that I can totally control the ingredients. For cooking, I like my almond milk unsweetened. For drinking, I added a wee bit of maple syrup and vanilla to my almond milk. I just added some to my glass and stirred versus making two containers (one unsweetened and one sweetened), but if you have a lot of almond milk consumer, two jars might be the way to go. (I enjoyed my homemade almond milk with a Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie.)
And, as Thia said, even when starting totally from scratch with almonds, she still often chooses this route of turning her almonds into almond butter first, and then adding water, etc. to turn that into almond milk. With this method, there is no pulp to worry about using up! You are consuming all of the almonds with no fear of wasting anything.
Plus, here's another thought … you could add a little of this almond milk to coconut milk when you wish to lessen the coconut flavor. Or if you have some in your family who don't like the taste of almond milk, you could add a little coconut milk to your homemade almond milk.
Last, you can use this recipe to make milk from any nut butter so if you can tolerate others nuts, but can't eat almonds, give your favorite nut butter a try in place of almond butter. Again, you can use a ready-made nut butter or your own homemade nut butter. You can add any sweetener you like … honey, maple syrup, yacon syrup, dates, etc. … or not. You can add a pinch of sea salt … or not. You are in control here!
If you enjoy simple ways to make kitchen staples of your own, check out more ideas below the recipe!
- 2 cups filtered water
- 2 tbsp plus 1½ tsp of your favorite almond butter (to taste; I like this one, but homemade is fine if that's your preference)
- Sweetener of choice; honey, maple syrup, yacon syrup, pitted dates (I like Medjool dates), etc. (optional, to taste)
- Pinch of sea salt (if needed, your almond butter might already contain some sea salt)
- Add all ingredients to high-speed blender. I used my Vitamix, but any good blender will work fine. If you're not adding a date, you might even be able to use a shaker jar.
- Mix until blended, about a minute.
- Use immediately or chill before serving. Keep refrigerated. (Contents may settle over time. Just shake your jar before using.)

Li-Kim Chuah's Profile
A self taught photographer and collage artist from Melbourne, I'm interested in creating provocative and surreal images using my own photography and found vintage images. My style varies depending on the images I am working with but a lot of the time my work involves bold bright colour. As much as I try to make appealing, nice, pretty images, I always fail miserably and end up with something rather twisted.

Trainers Tom Amoss and Steve Asmussen ended the 141st Fair Grounds Race Course & Slots meeting in a dead-heat for most victories with 42 apiece when they combined to win half of the races on the closing-day card March 31.
For the third straight season, jockey Rosie Napravnik and owner Maggi Moss led their respective categories at the New Orleans oval as well.
Asmussen extended his record number of leading trainer titles to 12, while Amoss tied Jack Van Berg for second in Fair Grounds trainer titles with 10. Asmussen won his sixth consecutive leading trainer crown at Fair Grounds.
Last week, Asmussen became the second-leading trainer all-time nationally in victories, passing Van Berg. He now has 6,423 lifetime wins.
Amoss won four races on the closing-day program to notch a share of his first local training title since 2006-07. He and Asmussen also shared a meet title in 2000-01.
"It's been a while," Amoss said. "It's good to know the stable had one left in them! But truly, every once in a while the horse gods give you a magical day and today was truly a magical day. Four wins is almost gluttonous, but we'll take it, for sure. I'm proud of the stable and I'm proud of everyone that works for the barn."
The last time a trainer other than Amoss or Asmussen led the standings at Fair Grounds was the 1998-1999 meet, when Al Stall Jr. tied with Amoss.
Amoss now has 922 career Fair Grounds victories, second behind Van Berg's 1,210 (estimated), while Asmussen is third with 863.
Napravnik cruised to her third consecutive leading jockey title with 125 wins, her highest total at Fair Grounds. She finished 43 wins ahead of James Graham, who was runner-up for the fifth time.
"My husband and I have made this our home and we love this city and the racing here at Fair Grounds, so it was great to be back this year," Napravnik said. "It's great to have all of the supporters, the owners and trainers, helping rack up the wins. We'll be back next year and we're looking forward to it already. I hate to leave."
In another race that came down to the final day, Maggi Moss earned her third straight leading owner title with 19 wins, one more than Asmussen.
Moss, a Des Moines, Iowa attorney, finished third in the national owner standings the past three calendar years.

The best anti-aging cream in europe costs 3 euros
It is incredible how we spend money easilly in anti-aging products just to buy the best brand on the market.
But is it the right thing to do? We all know that anti-aging creams are our best friends but sometimes we just cannot see the effects that they are supposed to produce.
If you are lucky enough to live in Europe you can buy the best anti-aging cream on the market for as little as 3 euros (less than 5 dollars).
A recent study showed that the best beauty brands available are not able to deliver the same effect as this supermarket cream. The cream is called CIEN Q10 and it is made by LIDL, a famous german discount supermarket.
None of the most famous anti-aging cream were able to provide the same effect as this unexpensive one.

This week on The Newsroom, we watched a few big plans start to crumble just as the Genoa tip's sources began to build. While each character had his or her moments of brilliance this week, it was Maggie Jordan (Alison Pill) and her story that shined the brightest.
When we first saw Maggie during the premiere, we saw a "new" Maggie with hair a few shades shy of "natural" and a rather violent cut. When ACN's attorney questioned the transformation, Will was quick to jump to her defense. He told the prying, mocking attorney (played by Marcia Gay Harden) that if she went through what Maggie had experienced, she'd kill herself every day. We didn't learn exactly what that experience was until this week, but we knew it had to do with her trip to Africa.
This week, Maggie and Gary were finally off to Africa and, despite working on a story involving Kony, they were first asked to do a human interest piece on some soldiers as they work to rehab an orphanage. Sounds simple enough, right? Maggie was certainly looking forward to it. And, indeed, they made the most out of their time there. Maggie even bonded with a little boy named Daniel, who insisted she read him the same story over and over again.
They waited too long to leave, and when night fell they were told it was too dangerous on the road at night and they'd have to stay at the orphanage. Late into the night, they heard commotion outside. Rebels tended to raid farms and families for their cattle, killing anyone in their way. So, the orphanage director went outside to tell the raiders they had no cattle and to ask them to be on their way. The men continued to advance, so the director evacuated the orphans onto the buses parked behind the school.
When they all reached the bus, one kid was missing: Daniel. They went back into the orphanage and found Daniel under Maggie's bed. Scooping him onto her back, Maggie ran back to the bus, but before they got there, the men shot at her, taking out Daniel instead. The little boy died in her arms.
As for the crazy hair? Daniel was obsessed with her hair, playing with and twirling it, mesmerized by the color he'd never seen before. Maggie's response: "That color is called blond, Daniel, and it's nothing but trouble."
How is all this relevant? The attorney is trying to figure out if Maggie is stable enough to be placed on the stand during the investigation and hearing over the story the News Night gang will eventually produce based on the Genoa tip. While Maggie swears it's no big deal, it clearly is.
Neal (Dev Patel) finally convinced Will to spend on-air time chatting with one of the girls from the Occupy Wall Street movement. Once Will (Jeff Daniels) got a hold of her, though, he flayed her as nicely as possible by simply questioning their methods. He drills into them about needing a clearer message, more defined goals and, whether they like it or not, a leader.
The major problem with her skewering though was that by sheer luck the girl also said she knew something involving the Genoa tip/story. Once Will killed it, she wasn't about to tell. In the course of several hours, the NN team tried to work its magic on her to woo the information out of her. She was headstrong, though, and before long each of them only proceeded to chastise her more.
They got their information, though.
Meanwhile, Jim had a moment of shining idiocy, too. After abandoning the Romney bus with only two other people who believed in his message, MacKenzie (Emily Mortimer) continued to lay into him about the lack of information they were now getting. He finally caught gold while asking the Romney spokesperson his usual bout of questions, including about the recently uncovered racist name of Rick Perry's ranch. The spokeswoman loses her temper with his badgering and tell him to "f*** off." Jim got it on tape.
That should be good, right? Right. Except the idiot agreed not to run it if she'd score a 30 minute interview with Romney... for his "rival"/follower, Hallie (Grace Gummer). Not only does the news make it back to a furious Mac, but Hallie finds out the truth behind how she scored the interview, too. Jim is pulled back to New York, but not before being berated (and then kissed) by Hallie.
And that, dear friends, is "all the news that is news."

Quite naturally, if you configure the Firefox address bar to best fit your needs, you may be able to considerably increase your productivity.
Again, no need to install all those addons listed, just choose those that are likely to help you get things done faster.
1. FireFox Shortcuts For The Address Bar
In the official list of the shortcuts we only can find a couple of those related to the Firefox address (location) bar:
Command | Windows | Mac | Linux |
Select All Text in Location Bar (e.g. to quickly copy it) | Ctrl+L or Alt+D | Cmd+L | Ctrl+L or Alt+D |
Complete .com domain | Ctrl + Enter | Cmd + Enter | Ctrl + Enter |
Complete .net domain | Shift+Enter | Shift+Enter | Shift+Enter |
Complete .org domain | Ctrl+Shift+Enter | Cmd+Shift+Enter | Ctrl+Shift+Enter |
Note: you can change the auto-complete behavior by installing this Firefox plugin: URL Suffix . This addon is also great for non-US users who need to quicker access regional extensions (like .com.ua, .ru, etc):
2. (Mistyped) URL Path Fixes
With FireFox's awesome bar which does a great job suggesting what I am going to type, I use the address bar more and more often to type the URL manually. Therefore the following two addons (that make sure I don't spend much time dealing with mistypes) are just invaluable:
URL Corrector
This addon makes sure you always type the address using English letters, no matter which language your computer is currently set to use. As a user with Russian origins (and thus having two languages on my laptop I regularly switch between), this addon is very useful for me.
(Note: I haven't tested it with any other languages except Russian):
URL Fixer
This addon corrects typos in URLs that you enter in the address bar. You can enable or disable confirmation options for the tool to ask you first if you want the URL corrected:
- Corrects common misspellings of .com, .net, .org, .edu, .gov, .mil, etc;
- Fixes the protocol mistypes (http:, https:);
- Fixes mistakes in most popular domains (the database seems fairly large to me or probably it pulls domains from my browsing history – I am not sure about that):
You can turn off/on the confirmation window by right-clicking on the Firefox address bar:
Another similar addon that can be used for URL correction is FireFix. It claims to "learn and correct mistyped web addresses typed in the address bar". I found URL Fixer more usable but it's up to you.
3. Faster Browsing
Locationbar2 "linkifies URL segments" which basically means that you can easily click-through upper-level folders in the URL path (hold CTRL, Shift or Alt for that). Besides, it has a nice visual effect putting emphasis on the domain to reduce the clutter:
UrlbarExt extends the Location Bar with a set of commands. I have hidden most of the commands but a few of them seem really useful:
- Go one directory level up in the URL;
- Copy the URL;
- Shorten the URL:
The options allow to hide any of the commands from the location bar:
4. Enhanced Search Options
There are quite a few addons that add/fix search capabilities of FireFox (Awesome) Location bar. Here I am listing my personal picks (choosing is either of them is the best way to go):
This one was already mentioned by me in the post on making FireFox more search-friendly 8 Tips To Make FireFox Search Friendly 8 Tips To Make FireFox Search Friendly Read More . The addon supports multiple Google services and also displays your related search history (it's limited to Google only):
- gweb – Google general search;
- gloc – Google local search;
- gvid – Google video search;
- gblog – Google blog search;
- gnews – Google news search;
- gbook – Google book search;
- gimg – Google image search;
- gpat – Google patent search.
This addon integrates search bar into the location bar: it shows both search and URL suggestions and adds some handy search options.
With Omnibar you can switch between the search engines right from the address bar (just click on the search engine icon in the location bar):
It has other nice features like wildcard support, mouseless search engine switching (works pretty much like FireFox's smart keywords) and auto-complete.
The addon is not perfect (see the discussed bugs) but it has been doing its job pretty well for me so far.
Via options you can set the number and the style of the suggestions displayed:
5. About:Config Hacks
1. Auto-Completion:
If you don't have Omnibar installed for auto-completion functionality, you can add it yourself from about:config
- In the address bar type about:config;
- Filter: browser.urlbar.autoFill
- Double-click on the value for "browser.urlbar.autoFill" to set it to True.
2. Easier Partial URL Highlighting
By default, Firefox automatically highlights the entire URL; to change this default behavior (if you, like me, have to copy parts of the URL paths frequently), you will need to do the following:
- In the address bar type about:config;
- Filter: browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll
- Double-click on the value to make it False:
Non-Productivity Addons For The Firefox Address Bar
Just a couple of addons that are not really about productivity but are just fun:
- Fission combines the address bar and progress bar (Safari style) which makes loading websites fun.
- TwitterBar allows you to tweet right from your address bar. For active Twitter users this can actually be a time saver.
Now, which hacks do you use to customize your FireFox address bar?
Leave a Reply
Thanks, browser.urlbar.autoFill option was really helpful to me in Firefox under Linux (Ubuntu).
Also on point 1, if you press F6 from anywhere other than the Awesome Bar it will select the whole address.
For me, it selects the Google toolbar search field. Can Google toolbar change that default behavior?
I am not aware of that, in all installations I have had (Windows 7 in Work, OSX at Home) Firefox and IE all select address bar for me, will test this out with Google Toolbar.
What set up you using?
+1 for omnibar
After using Chrome for a few months, it was IMPOSSIBLE to switch back to Firefox without this addon :P I'd ALWAYS type searches into the address bar and then I wouldn't get what I wanted. Great addon :)
It would be better if they added search feature to address bar like in Opera where you can just type "g something" and search for this "something" in Google or other really useful websites like Wikipedia ("w" option), etc.
But I like that they at last copied from Chrome logics of tabs management.-
In your Firefox, click on the icon in your search text field -> Manage Search Engine -> Define keywords for each search engine.

Can You Reduce Your Stress By How You Breathe?
Do you need to relieve your tension at the end of the day? Do you want a system to help you relax so you can be more productive? We get exited in our everyday lives causing a state of arousal even though we have nothing to be excited about. This can cause undue stress, emotion problems including anger and depression, not to mention being irritable. Along with this are the physical things like headaches and stomach aches. Knowing how to relax with focused breathing exercises can help get rid of the symptoms and calm you and also can help you sleep. A better quality sleep helps you feel rested and thus be more productive during the day.
You must be in a good comfortable position for your breathing exercise. This is the first step. There are many positions you can take. These include: lying on your stomach, lying on your back, sitting with your legs crossed, sitting on your feet with your knees forward and lastly, standing. Whatever position you decide on should be one that is comfortable for you or you won't be able to relax at all not matter how you breathe. Find something that works for you and change positions during the exercises to find the most comfortable. You may want to change positions anyway as some of the breathing exercises make more sense as you change.
Also, the proper breathing technique is important. This is the next step in the process. Normally we take pretty shallow and short breaths. When you are doing the breathing exercises it is important to take longer, fuller, deeper breaths. This helps put is in a more relaxed state. To accomplish this, breathe in and out with your stomach going in and out. While you are doing this type of deep breathing make sure you stay relaxed by not moving your shoulders up and down or you will again be taking shallow breaths. Breathing deeply should result in bringing out the chest, the stomach and the collar bone.
Also you need to breathe very slowly allowing about 5 second when you inhale and 5 seconds when you exhale, but do focus more on the technique above than the pace. Breathe in through the nose and out through your mouth, breathing deeply in and out.
Focus your attention on your breathing and clear you mind of anything else to relieve the stress. This is the point of the exercises, to keep focused on the breathing so your mind doesn't have a chance to wander. When it does, just slowly concentrate more on the breathing again and you will find it easier to focus. The more you do it the easier it becomes and when you focus on the breathing, the stress and discomfort fade away with the relaxation.
Visualization can help also while you breathe deeply. Picture the muscles relaxing slowly and move your mind from one muscle to the next as you relax. Feel the stress leaving your body through your hands and feet.
You will find that deep breathing to go to sleep is a great method to relieve the daily stress and thus helping you become more productive in your everyday life.

Under-pressured reservoirs Horizontal and extended reach well designs Velocities in liners allow for solids settling Hz section is not 100% utilized Liquid loading of shallow to medium depth well bores Cleanout damage is becoming more of a problem each and every day Why is This Technology Required
Why This Technology is Required Alternative processes such as fluid circulation, swabbing, gas cleanouts and bailing or pump to surface technology have limitations and can no longer be generally applied. –Adds pressure to formation (over-balanced) –Does not work in Hz –Costly to deploy –Slow process --- › expensive
How it Works This systems utilizes two unique technologies to revolutionize the well bore cleanout operations. Our JetPak™ system utilizes FlatPak™ coiled tubing technology as well as specifically engineered jet pump to remove solids and liquids from well bores. The primary function of this technology is to create a low pressure environment in the well bore to pump the fluid and/or solids to surface.

Questions Surrounding Horizontal Well designs How long should the lateral section be in a given formation? Is drainage making it to the toe of the lateral? Stimulation type, Ball frac vs. mono bore and liner diameter choice Optimize fracture size and type What is the PBHP and inflow characteristics at specific intervals or stages? How does this correlate with frac type / volume and stip log. Fluid and solids viscosity and velocity in the lateral Drainage Area
Conclusions In the mid 1990s, the SPE did a world wide study on the production from Hz wells of all types. They found that, on average, 30% of the lateral sections did not produce. Our findings reaffirms the out come of this study. During our tests the majority of the Hz wells we have entered have offered the best production from the mid point to the toe of the lateral section. Alternately the liner has proof of non production since new, drilling fluid, drilling enzymes or the liner entirely full of sand. We are running BH recorders on each and every cleanout. This is another diagnosis tool we can use to identify issues or potential upside. To make a horizontal well economically successful, it has to yield at minimum 4 times what an offset vertical produces. Thus, we are still in our infancy when it comes to completion and production of Hz wells. This information may help E&P companies design wells that will optimize recovery of the given formation. Geology- Longer may not always be better.

The Social Exchange Theory (SET)
An overview of SET with evaluation and research
- Created by: sorrel
- Created on: 01-12-13 15:06
First 464 words of the document:
There are several different versions of SET, but underlying them all is the view that people are
selfish. Homans (1974) believes that people view their feelings for others in terms of profits- that
is, the rewards obtained from the relationships minus the costs. The greater the rewards and the
lower the costs, the greater the profit and, therefore, the greater the desire to maintain the
relationship. Blau (1964) argues that interactions are `expensive', as they take time, energy and
commitment and may involve unpleasant emotions and experiences. Therefore, what we get out of a
relationship must exceed what goes in. SET is therefore an `economic theory', explaining
relationships in terms of maximising benefits and minimising costs. The `social exchange' is the mutual
exchange of rewards between partners, like friendship and sex and the costs of being in the
relationships, such as freedoms given up. A person assesses their rewards by making comparisons:
Thibaut and Kelley proposed that we develop a comparison level (CL) - a standard against which all
our relationships are judged.
Comparison levels are the product of our experiences in other relationships and our general views on
expectations of partners.
A relationship deemed worthwhile will exceed our current CL.
There are also comparison levels for alternative partners (CLalt) - a person weighs up a potential
increase in rewards from a different person.
This theory assumes that all social behaviour is a series of exchanges; individuals attempt to maximise
their rewards and minimise their costs.
In society, people exchange resources with the expectation that they will earn a `profit'
Social exchange, in line with other `economic' theories of human behaviour, stresses that
commitment to a relationship is dependent on the profitability of this outcome.
This theory has been used to explain why some women stay in abusive relationships. Rusbult and
Martz (1995) argue that when investments are high (e.g. children) and alternatives are low (e.g.
nowhere to live, no money) this could still be considered a profitable situation.
A relationship is maintained if rewards exceed costs and the profit level is not exceeded by possible
alternative relationships. Thibaut and Kelley et al (1959) proposed a four stage model setting out
how relationships could be maintained via predictable exchanges.
Sampling Rewards and costs are assessed in a number of
Bargaining A relationship is `costed out' and sources of
profit and loss are identified
Commitment Relationship is established and maintained by a
predictable exchange of rewards
Institutionalisation Interactions are established and the couple
`settle down'

Carcanet Press is our most courageous publisher. When you look at what they have brought out since their beginnings, it makes so many other houses seem timid or merely predictable.

A W.H. Davies ReaderEdited by Rory Waterman
Not Yet Available This title is available for academic inspection (paperback only).
eBook (PDF)
ISBN: 978 1 784100 90 2 Categories: 20th Century, British, Memoirs Imprint: FyfieldBooks Published: January 2015 280 pages (print version) Publisher: Carcanet Press Also available in: Paperback, eBook (EPUB), eBook (Kindle)
W.H. Davies (1871–1940) was popularly though reductively known as the 'tramp-poet' due to his remarkable journey from vagrancy, in Britain and the United States, to considerable literary success. 'Discovered' in part by Edward Thomas, who admired his poetry, Davies became a prolific memoirist and occasional writer of fiction, criticism and drama. He is now known almost exclusively for a handful of poems and for his memoir The Autobiography of a Super-Tramp; his other writing has long been out of print. This book collects generous selections from Davies's prose memoir, poetry, and critical prose, alongside comprehensive notes. It brings back into print the work of a remarkable, controversial and unduly neglected author.
Praise for Rory Waterman
'Rory Waterman writes poems of the kind thereâll always be a need for â poems that require skill to make but donât insist on it, that combine keen-eyed observation and immediately graspable shades of feeling in a memorable way. Watermanâs is a very appealing voice, laconic, unillusioned and vulnerable. His world is a recognisable and convincing one, his rueful, sometimes harsh sincerity is palpable, and he deserves to be read by anyone to whom these things still matter.'

Meet John Musgrave
We wanted to spread the word that we have added some new faces to Modulus. Meet John. He is our Senior Software Engineer, and we are lucky enough to have him on the Modulus team. With that being said, get to know John and why he joined our Modulus team!
Who are you and how did you learn about Modulus?
Hi everyone, my name is John Musgrave, I am a Senior Software Engineer at Modulus. I learned about Modulus from their presence in the startup and Node.js communities. I think the first time I used Modulus was after reading Sacha Greif's book "Discover Meteor", in which he mentions Modulus in one of the first chapters.
What attracted you to Modulus?
I feel like Modulus was on the frontier of the shift towards cloud computing when it was just starting to emerge. They had a cloud hosting platform that let developers focus more on their code, and were proponents of both Node and Meteor development.
Where did you go to school, what did you major in, and what attracted you to that major?
I went to school in the Cincinnati area for college and high school. I took some introductory programming courses at the high school level, and had enough interest in the subject to major in it in college. I think I was hooked after I got my first algorithm problem, and I also worked on a few simple games. Something about the challenge was intriguing. It was just the only class in high school that I was really interested in, I had never wanted to stay up all night working on anything school related before that. It also made me become a lot more interested in learning Math and Science. I think it gave me a way to apply all of the theory that I was learning. It interested me, not only from a Math perspective, but from the language perspective. Learning how to express the same concept in a different way was something that I found interesting. I enjoyed everything I studied in college, but I think my favorite course was Compiler Theory and Design. Mainly because of the work done by famous linguists, who developed the first computational models of language, which is something that is fascinating to me. And the underlying theory of a finite state machine is one of the concepts I use on a daily basis.
Where have you worked before coming to Modulus?
I have worked in several other startups in the Cincinnati area. Before working at Modulus I was a Senior Software Engineer at Roadtrippers. I have also worked as a freelance developer for a while.
What do you do in your free time?
In my free time I like to read a lot of different things. Mainly literature and philosophy, but also technical books. I like to exercise and ride my bike. And I really enjoy playing music.
What are you passionate about?
I'm passionate about technology, which is changing faster all the time, and is also changing the way people live and work.
What are your goals while you work at Modulus?
My goals for working at Modulus are to become the best developer that I can, and to deliver the highest quality product that I can to our users.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
If you asked me at age five I would have probably said that I wanted to be Batman. He did all of his own engineering too. I think after that I always wanted to do something with computers. When I was younger Nintendo 64 was all the rage, so I wanted to learn how to program so I could make video games.

Limitations are often perceived as restrictions that control us from doing or achieving what we want. They stop us from discovering and embracing new opportunities that would help us understand our capabilities more.
The second in KSearch's KEP Talk Series entitled Accept No Limits was conducted on January 30 by Caryn Ingco, one of the Consultants of HR/Sales & Marketing Practice Area. The goal of the talk was to break our habit of just accepting limitations. According to her, accepting our limitations and not exerting an effort to go beyond them actually hinder us from developing and accomplishing our plans and goals.
The talk highlighted three crucial points about limitations. Caryn started her talk with the value of knowing our limits. Recognizing our limitations plays a major role in self-development and motivation since it determines what we are strong at and what we need to improve on. It is important to note though that these limitations should not, in any way, hinder us from exploring and pursuing something new. We should not surrender to these limitations so that we will not tread through life feeling insecure and afraid of failure and rejection. Instead, we should be thinking possibilities.
To emphasize this second point, Caryn quoted Arthur Clarke who said, "The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible." According to Caryn, we should not stop at just knowing our limitations. We should also break the glass ceiling that we have built out of insecurity and fear of failing. This glass ceiling only stops us from exploring other opportunities and possibilities, and maximizing our capabilities. We should instead learn to look at our limitations, not as restrictions that prohibit us from developing ourselves, but as hurdles that we should overcome. Caryn stressed that we should realize our capabilities, think of possibilities and be brave and confident to leave our comfort zones. We need to believe that although limitations are quite overwhelming, they will surely lead us to personal and career satisfaction if conquered.
Lastly, Caryn advised that we should instill in us the habit of accepting no limits. Limitations are not there to discourage us from doing what we want. On the contrary, a limitation is a driving force that motivates and pushes us to accomplish even more. When limits are recognized and accepted, we become creative and learn to find ways to be better.
In addition, we also need to release our limitations and move forward to another challenge with a smile and a hopeful heart. Every opportunity that comes our way should be faced without fear. When we continuously assert our right to be successful in our career, we consequentially widen our perspectives in life and make progress in managing our own limits. In the end, our limits become our jumping board for more successful endeavors in life.

ALOHA! PACÍFICA-ROMÂNTICO-perfeito para relaxar! Este condomínio à beira-mar foi recentemente remodelado com estilo, classe e um toque de Havaí! Esta unidade piso superior oferece privacidade, uma espectacular vista panorâmica para o mar e tem uma localização central para tudo o que Maui tem para oferecer. O Oceanfront Bedroom Master Suite tem uma bela cama king size e seu próprio banheiro privado. A cozinha tem balcões de granito, piso de travertino, e todos os novos aparelhos.

De sua varanda, desfrutar de alguns dos melhores observação de baleias em Maui (meses de inverno). Além disso, quando o surf pega, Maalaea produz o famoso "Freight Train", uma das ondas mais rápidas e as mais longas de surf do mundo (melhor nos meses de verão). Apenas alguns poucos passos de distância, desfrutar de mergulho, natação e beachcombing. 10 minutos do aeroporto de Kahului. Welcome to Paradise TAX ID # W37836622-01
We definitely recommend this place!
The location in Maalaea is a great central location, and very easy to get to. It is across the street from the Maui Ocean center, next door to many of the boat excursions, and less than 30 minutes from Kahului, Lahaina, or Kihei. Best of all, the condo is NOT in a chintzy tourist area, so you can enjoy peaceful ocean views and beach access.
Kitchen is well stocked, and the owner leaves snorkels, beach chairs, and most anything else you could want. Everything is clean and pretty well maintained. Separate bedrooms easily accommodate 4, although the back bedroom has less airflow and might be less comfortable on especially hot days. Most days, though, the trade winds provide a steady rush of fresh air.
But best of all, the view outside your window is absolutely stunning! No better way to wake up than with coffee on the balcony overlooking the bay, and no better way to finish your day in the evening. Just awesome!
Perfect ...next to all the Boats for whale watch and snorkling
We LOVED our time in this condo.
Centrally located between all of the things to do in Maui.
The harbor was a real added plus.
We loved watching the boats coming and going. We got to know each vessel and their time schedule.
Walking distance to the harbor and the town of Maaleaha.
Condo was very comfortable. The lania was where we spend most of our time when we were in the condo.
Very easy to get to from the airport. Whales were starting to come in. Great condo to do some serious whale watching.
Thanks Rebecca Q for sharing with us.
I can't say enough about how wonderful our experience staying at Rebecca Quigleys unit at Maalaea Yacht Marina. The unit was very clean and well stocked with all the essentials one could ask for. We booked it within a few days of leaving for the islands, and was very impressed on the quick response. Will definitely be staying here again and telling all our friends and family.
We really enjoyed going to eat at Beach Bum right there in the Harbor
Also, Matt the manager was also very helpful and the property is absolutely beautiful🌺
Thank you you so much Rebecca❤

We stayed 5 nights at the condo and enjoyed every minute. Kitchen is beautiful and well stocked; we cooked most meals there. The view from the kitchen, master bedroom and lanai are wonderful. We could see the turtles right from the lanai every day.
The winds at Maalaea Bay are strong, but that made for decent cooling of the condo every day. There is no central a/c but for the most part it wasn't bothersome. I didn't choose to boil anything on the stove, run the oven, and made sure to close blinds at times sun was directly shining in, but that's all common sense in a place in the summer. I live in the mountains and we don't have a/c either so you just learn to work around it. If you're wanting 65 degree temps inside though, then you may want to rethink this place. Otherwise, it was just fine without a/c. We were in the tropics afterall!
The nearby beach was nice, lots of turtle sightings and within walking distance. It was nice having coolers, snorkel, boogie boards and towels available as well.
Maalaea Bay is easy driving distance to many places on the island. We easily drove around the northwest part of Maui around Lahaina and back to Kahalui one day, as well as a day trip to Hana and down to Haleakala to watch the sunset. Bundle up - it's cold up there!
Try Mana Foods in Paia for groceries. It's a hippie coop with fresh cooked foods, salad bar and groceries with a lot of local produce. Prices are reasonable. Paia is a fun town with a great vibe. It's abou 15 minutes from the condo. Mambo Cafe is a fun place for lunch.
Overall, we had a great stay at the Quigley's condo and would be glad to go back! It was quiet, relaxing, comfortable and in a good location. Rebecca was very helpful with info prior to the trip and reservations were quick and easy.
Highly recommend!
We could not ask for a better place to stay while visiting Maui. The location was perfect. The Condo was excellent. There was everything you would want for preparing meaI's - including spices. The view was beautiful. There was always a breeze to cool things. Very highly recommended!!

LATEST: Rock band Crowded House have confirmed reports they will reunite for a 12-month world tour later this year (07).
Tour dates are still being finalised, but the band will play at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California in April (07).
The group will include singer/guitarist Neil Finn, bassist NICK SEYMOUR and touring keyboard player MARK HART.
The band is currently holding auditions for a drummer to replace PAUL HESTER, who committed suicide in 2005.
Finn says, "It feels right to us that the band should re-emerge at this time. We look forward to reconnecting with the audience that we established and for whom we still hold a deep respect.
"We aim to make the upcoming shows and the new music every bit as vital and spirited as what has come before."
A new album, TIME ON EARTH, will be released to coincide with the performances.

Shostakovich, Dmitri
(dyĭmē`trē shŏstŏkô`vĭch), 1906–75, Russian composer, b. St. Petersburg. Shostakovich studied at the Leningrad Conservatory (1919–25). The early success of his First Symphony (1925) was confirmed by positive public reaction to two satirical works of 1930—an opera, The Nose (Leningrad; from a tale by GogolGogol, Nikolai Vasilyevich, 1809–52, Russian short-story writer, novelist, and playwright, sometimes considered the father of Russian realism. Of Ukrainian origin, he first won literary success with fanciful and romantic tales of his native Ukraine in

Severely castigated after Stalin saw a 1936 production of his popular opera Lady Macbeth of the Mzensk District (1934), he was restored to favor with his powerful, traditional, yet ironic Fifth Symphony (1937). From then on he concentrated on symphonic compositions, with later, post-Stalin symphonies tending to deconstruct the traditional Beethoven model (in all, he wrote 15 symphonies) and, during the World War II, on heroic cantatas. Influenced by MahlerMahler, Gustav

Click the link for more information. in his monumental symphonies, many of which include choral portions, Shostakovich was basically a Russian nationalist composer whose work represented traditional classical forms and generally remained accessibly tonal. Nonethless, his tart harmonics and musical portrayal of pain and turmoil are distinctly 20th cent. in tone. His outstanding works include 15 string quartets, a piano concerto (1933), the Piano Quintet (1940), the Eighth Symphony (1943), 24 Preludes and Fugues for Piano (1951), and the 13th Symphony, "Babi Yar" (1962).

I agree with a previous review about their tipping policy, but more on that later. Six of us enjoyed a very nice meal just off the sidewalk on a beautiful evening with great people watching.

We have eaten here quite a few times, due to the street side ambiance and relatively inexpensive eats. The construction next door is infringing on their atmosphere right now.

This is always the best place to enjoy a pure and unique Italian Bakery or a coffee for your breakfast. Every time I go there, its quality of service and product are Amazing!. If you are around Las Olas Blvd please do not miss this place, put it on your list!!!.
Delicious Italian sandwiches, variety of baked goods, pastries and coffee with friendly staff. I love both locations on Las Olas Blvd.
They bake their own bread and the ciabata is awesome, literally, it's very large. It is also delicious. The pizza is also very good. Marvin is a terrific waiter.
Food okay, service a mess... They offered a free Appetizer to is, which was on the Bill in the End. They Took it of and instead we found 18% Service Fee on the Check...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And: forgot drinks, coffee, brought all food together... First and last Time... sorry...
