This episode is a little different. As you know, we alternate between interview shows and Burt and Scott discussing whatever comes to mind. In this case, we had a number of news-related items to stitch together, but we had help in doing so. This was something of a chowder, a goulash, a salmagundi, a boullabaise, a melange of content.
First, Bob Katz, BSI ("Dr. Anstruther") joined us again, but this time he told us all about "The Mind and Art of Sherlock Holmes" — the latest in the BSI's series of quadrennial conferences. This gathering at the Chatauqua Institution is not exclusive to Baker Street Irregulars; it's open to any Sherlockian who wishes to participate in a conference centered around art of all sorts. In this case, that includes theater, film, music and even podcasting (!). Plenty of food, drink, Sherlockian shopping, sightseeing and more.
Rachel Smillie, Ph.D. is a research assistant at the University of Porsmouth, where she's conducting a study of Sherlockians and their organizations, called "Celebrities, Fans and Muses." She is interested in getting in touch with Sherlockians from all over the world. If you're involved with a Sherlockian society — particularly if you lead one — please get in touch with Dr. Smillie to participate in the survey.
We subject Ron Lies to a Wait Wait Don't Tell Me-inspired quiz in which Scott does a mediocre Bill Kurtis impression, and then we get on with the news.
The Editor's Gas-Lamp is "The Days We Envy" from Vol. 4, No. 3 of the Baker Street Journal from 1954. And our Easter egg contains some tales from Down Under and a surprise update on one of the earlier news items.
Finally, we discuss Episode 95 in which we'll interview Jamie Mahoney and Leah Guinn, authors of A Curious Collection of Dates. And we brainstorm what we'll do in Episode 100. If you have ideas for what we should do for our centennial show, please let us know.

Anthony Hita and Melissa Wei Luo were fortunate enough to attend the Vernacular Architecture Forum's 2018 Potomac Conference thanks to a combination of funding from the Vernacular Architecture Forum's Ambassador Award and the PennDesign Albert Binder Travel Fellowship. As architectural conservators in training, out of classroom experiences play a crucial role in building our professional network and broader understanding of the built environment.
The conference's opening reception aboard the Cherry Blossom rolling down the Potomac to historic Mount Vernon acted as an appropriate inauguration to the tours and topics presented in the following days. In a sense, the trip ushered us into a mindset of traveling back in time in such a way that as we sat on the rear porch of Mount Vernon overlooking the river, we could almost imagine George and Martha Washington relaxing to the same views several centuries prior.
One of the most incredible qualities of vernacular architecture is its ability to communicate the experiences of disparate groups through space and time. This sense of transportation to another time continued the next day during the long but rewarding tour of Maryland's Lower Western Shore. The tour stood out in particular because it provided an opportunity to not only see historic properties, but in many cases also to interact with owners and community members who live, work, and gather daily in them. Often, buildings are presented apart from the people who use them. Yet, vernacular architecture cannot exist separated from those whose needs and desires helped shape it. The buildings became not simply static edifices frozen in time, but living realms of humanity which are continually adapted to meet the challenges presented by continued use.
In particular, we quite enjoyed Kenah House for its sensible layout of interior space, secluded lower level bedroom, and quiet and comfortable work spaces. The congenial atmosphere of the house was reinforced by the current owner who took time to greet each of us and share his experiences of living and maintaining the space. His presence helped underscore the fact that the Kenah House is still a home. Likewise, St. Francis Xavier Church was enhanced by the presence of many of the members of its weekly worshipping community. The members shared their pride in their continued use of the historic building to meet the needs of their community.
We also benefited from the paper sessions on Saturday as they reinforced the fact that architecture is inevitably shaped by both internal and external forces. Susane Haveika's paper on her experience studying Inuit architecture on the banks of the Arctic Sea was interesting as it showed how members of the community creatively responded to the Canadian government's attempt to regulate and standardize housing, resulting in a very distinctive vernacular style. The session on Erasure in the Urban Vernacular Landscape was full of passionate voices regarding many social and preservation issues that plague American cities, such as gentrification, identity erasure, and loss of historic neighborhoods. As preservationists we can utilize our professional knowledge to act as intermediaries to mitigate these issues and try to help people ensure the survival of their heritage.
The conference was an exciting opportunity to be among seasoned professionals and discuss a wide range of topics relative to architectural history and preservation issues. As ambassadors, we hope to be able to interface with other students and professionals back in the Philadelphia area to help others experience the formative lessons engagement the VAF has provided us. We plan to take the issues and questions raised through participation in the conference back to our classroom and professional settings to encourage further connection between our peers and the greater field of vernacular architecture preservation.

By: Jessica Cickay
Exactly two months ago marked the first time in my 25 food-filled years that I tried red meat. I'm not a vegetarian, I'm not religious and I'm not against eating animals – I just was never fed a cow (or a pig, for that matter) and always deemed everything from a quarter-pounder with cheese to a filet mignon non-options. My random rebellion began one night with a single taste of my boyfriend's burger, and let's just say it was love at first bite. Luckily, my dabble into the meat department came just in time for an outdoor BBQ on the patio of Bambara in the Hotel Marlowe in Cambridge, where Chef Jay Silva served up a rainbow's variety of sliders that could satisfy herbivores and omnivores alike!
The good thing about being me is that I have no qualms about "playing stupid" sometimes. And when it comes to getting the most food possible with the shortest amount of wait, I am the best pretender around. That said, I was able to sample ample amounts of Chef Silva's sliders, leaving the rest of the crowd clouded in the smoke of his grill and at the back of the line. While sipping on a glass of Prosecco sweetened with a simple strawberry syrup, I treated my impatient taste buds to perfectly prepared Spring Pea Arancini. These ping-pong ball sized puppies were packed full of tender Arborio rice, fresh green peas, ooey-gooey parmesan and mozzarella cheeses, and then flash fried for a one-way trip to my mouth.

Are you searching for more knowledge about ConnectAudience? Today I'm Doing a ConnectAudience Review & Will Show Everything About It! Please read through my ConnectAudience Review about it before selecting it, to evaluate the weaknesses and strengths of it. Can it be worth your time and effort and cash? "Are you a marketer on Facebook?" And "Do you find it difficult to earn profits from your subscriber lists?"
If the answer to both of the questions is "YES", you and I share one thing in common. I was a salesperson on Facebook, and when I first started, I met so many troubles. My biggest ones were campaigns and subscriber lists.
I knew neither how to create campaigns for my targeted audiences nor how to make them buy my product. Every campaign I set up was a disaster, and despite the subscriber lists that I had, I could not earn money from them. So I decided to stop a little, and look for a useful tool, that can help me solve my problems. And luckily, I found ConnectAudience while I was surfing the internet. I got attracted at the first moment I saw its name.
ConnectAudience is a software that allows you to run email targeting campaigns on Facebook, a great way to get your subscriber lists and Facebook Ads working together. Want to retarget those who opened your email but didn't click on a link? Easy. Those that didn't open your email yet? No problem. If you are curious about how this product solved my problems, read the following review to find out.
Creators Of ConnectAudience
Wilco de Kreij is author of ConnectAudience. He made his big success being an affiliate marketer which he has been doing full time since 2006 and Wilco's new product has been well received by his fellow marketers who have confidence that he has delivered an excellent job in his new project.
The CEO and founder of Marketing Released, Stefan van der Vlag is one of the people who are already praising Wilco's new product. He says that given Wilco's track record of producing many 6 figure products, he could not have gotten it wrong in his newest product. He tells people to brace themselves for high EPCs and many thank you emails from their customers.
That someone like van der Vlag has confidence in the upcoming product isn't something to be taken lightly. Van der Vlag is among the top crop of internet marketing specialists and for him to believe in the product, it surely must be good. He has previously worked at Glorious partnership and McDonald's and has himself created a number of successful info products. He is also talented in many other digital components.
Another marketer, Mark Thompson, also praises Wilco and expresses his faith in his colleague's new product. He talks of how Wilco takes much pride in each and every one of his products and how he is always super confident when promoting any of Wilco's new products because he knows it will translate into a lot of sales conversion when backed with impeccable customer service.

ConnectAudience Review – What is ConnectAudience?
ConnectAudience – A powerful platform that allows you to run email retargeting campaigns on Facebook. Moreover, want to retarget those who opened your email but didn't click on a link? Easy. Those that didn't open your email yet? No problem.
This is possible because ConnectAudience syncs your subscriber lists directly into a Facebook Custom Audience inside your Ads account. Wow IT is amazing software.

Some FANTASTIC Features of ConnectAudience
With ConnectAudience, you can automate activities between your Facebook ads manager and your subscribers, which gives you the ability to build your lists of customers email from any other ones. And if you make any changes to your lists, it will automatically manage and update.
Moreover, you can not only create an email list of subscribers on your own but also build a retargeting campaign on Facebook just for them. This process usually takes about an hour, because you have to go through many steps. But with this software, there is only less than a minute.
How does it work?
In my ConnectAudience Review, I want to show you how I used this product to create a campaign targeting my subscriber lists:
- Step 1: Get access to ConnectAudience and add name of the campaign
- Step 2: Choose the list of subscribers you want to target in "Filter" bar
- Step 3: There will be "Audience size" bar appearing so that you can see the number of subscribers you are targeting. Then choose "yes" or "no" for the question "Do you want to publish to Facebook", and also the boxes "I agree to the Facebook Custom Audiences Terms", and " Update this audience on a daily basis."
- Step 4: Set time for the update in step 3. Click "Create Audience", then see "Status" bar and keep track to your campaign.
It is not complicated at all, right? I learned how to do it in 10 minutes, so I hope with these steps in my ConnectAudience Review, you can do it too.
The greatest thing about this product is that anyone can use it. No matter you are a starter, seasoned Facebook marketer, or a small business owner, you can use ConnectAudience. It is very easy to use and appropriate to any promotions.
Besides, I think its idea is simple but very dynamic. Even if you can think of targeting your email lists of subscribers by Facebook campaigns, it will take so many steps to finish. But with this software, you can squeeze the process lasting about one hour to a minute. So much time is saved, and you can work on other more significant tasks.
I boosted my revenue from 2 dollars to 312 dollars per subscriber after two weeks using this product. That's 156 %. What an incredible number. Imagine if it is 10, or 20 dollars per subscriber, that's when you get rich.
Perhaps I am an ambitious person, so I want to make much more money in the future. But ConnectAudience has only developed on Facebook. If it can spread through Twitter or Pinterest in the future, I think it will satisfy my needs.

Upsell 2: ConnectLeads
What is ConnectLeads?
Facebook recently introduced Lead Ads, allowing everyone to collect email subscribers on Facebook with just a single tab. Lead generation on Facebook has never been easier!
There is just one problem… You can't connect Facebook Lead Ads to your autoresponders – making the feature virtually worthless.
Guess what? That's where ConnectLeads comes in.
ConnectLeads automatically submits all leads real-time into any autoresponder – making this the tool every Facebook advertiser & business owner is waiting for.
Facebook ads are a great way to build your email list.
If you always wanted to figure out a good way to build an email list then listen up and read my ConnectLeads review. One of the best ways to build an email list today its my place in ants on Facebook.
Why Facebook such a good place to build your email list? It is a great place to build your email list because you're able to pinpoint a specific demographic and market to them. That means that you get to show your ads to people who you want to show you too. This also means that you choose people who are likely to need your products and your services.
Many people think of Facebook PPC ads is just a place to sell things and to fish for likes and look for a great ConnectLeads bonus. But that is not so it is a great way to build your email list into get engagement for social media. What you start building your list via Facebook Ads you notice that you would get better people on your list.
You get people who were actually interested in the things you have to say and the things you have to promote. They will enjoy contacting you and receiving information that you have to give.And, This mostly happens because they chose to engage with you, it shows the clicker app and for some reason they're attracted to what you have to say.
If you want to build a email list very fast then Facebook is a place where you need to be, especially if your using the new Connect Leads tool. It is the place where you need to be because it is where the people are.
They're over 100 million people on Facebook and they're all open to hearing what you have to say. If you can tell her your message to them and touch them on the way that other marketers do not touch them then you will have a customer and a person who trust you.
When it comes to social media it really is all about connection, and not just trying to sell a product. That is where most people go wrong with social media did think that it is all about trying to sell a product when it really is a place to connect. So with the golden to get an email list you need to focus on connection, attracting them to you and promoting to them in a very personal and direct way.
If you are able to master building report, creating a connection and delivering information in a very classy way you will build not only a large email list but a following on Facebook. The following that you create on Facebook might actually be more powerful than the email list that you create. You might become that person who's supposed to look forward to seeing every day about a subject that they're interested in.
So think about it in a multi-fold way on one end you are building an email list and on the other you are doing attraction and brand marketing to create an identity that people have a rapport with and who they will follow.
What is the difference between ConnectLeads & ConnectAudience?
ConnectLeads will enable you to get Facebook Lead Ads connected with your autoresponder. This means that if someone enters your Facebook Lead Form (enters their email address), their email address is automatically sent into your autoresponder or email software. The focus of ConnectLeads is to collect email subscribers from Facebook onto your email list.
ConnectAudience does – in a way – the opposite. It connects your autoresponder or email software with your Facebook account, so you can create Facebook custom audiences based on who is on your email subscribers' list (ConnectAudience collects that data from your autoresponder and sends it into Facebook as a Custom Audience). The focus of ConnectAudience is to get more results from the email subscribers that you have.

Call it a reverse treasure hunt: go out and search all the cuisines on earth and bring back one that doesn't love bean soup. It's hard to picture you having much luck. Bean soup combines what has to be the world's least expensive protein for nourishment with what has to be the world's least challenging cooking technique.
Cooking soup requires no specific style of pot, no specific form of heat, and lots more time than trouble. Best of all, if you have or have access to virtually anything, from meat to broth to vegetables to herbs and spices, it will find a happy home in a bean soup.
As you might expect of a recipe that's so popular globally, flavor profiles have been known to take beans in almost every direction. Most are broth-based, since the cooking of beans gives off starch that thickens eventually – but there's certainly no law that says you can't make a cream- or milk-based version of almost any bean soup.
That's what happens with so-called Senate Bean Soup, a favorite in the cafeteria of the Capitol in Washington, D.C. This legendary navy bean soup even has cubed potatoes, making for additional substance. Too bad most of the laws passed within the building don't follow suit.
One of the coolest things about bean soup is that many cultures call it merely that – Bean Soup. They feel no need to get more precise, since most home cooks love the fact that if Soup A is great made with red kidney beans, it's also great made with lima beans or black beans or chick peas.
The recipe is almost always the same: Cook beans in water or broth with vegetables, seasonings and, if you've got it handy, one or more kinds of pork. Cook until the beans are done. And then eat. We prefer actual visible beans in our bean soups, but virtually all bean soups are also excellent when pureed, if that is your more allegedly elegant preference.
Still, despite this rather delightful generic quality, some soups have become synonymous with certain cultures, so much so that when you visit that culture or even one of its restaurants near you, you feel the need to order that soup.
Do not dare go to Tuscany, for instance, and not have one or more versions of Tuscan White Bean Soup (typically made with the white kidney beans known in Italian as cannellini). Bean soups are important to Greek cuisine as well, especially in the poorer mountain villages where that might be the only crop that grows. Expect wild oregano and thyme to add to the layers of flavor, and a little extra punch from a squeeze of lemon
And don't you dare go to Cuba, or Nicaragua or El Salvador, or pretty much anywhere in Central America, without enjoying Cuban Black Bean Soup. Anywhere except Cuba, in fact, the soup might well be listed on the menu as Cubano. Just so you never forget where it came from. – John DeMers
This is a white bean soup, meaning it can be made with any white bean with pretty much the same recipe and delightful result. Navy and Great Northern beans are among the favorites readily available in dried form, though finding dried cannellini opens the door to Italian flavors as surely as using dried pintos opens the door to Mexican. Feel free to adjust your spices accordingly.
2 pounds dried navy beans
3 slices thick-cut bacon
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 carrots, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 cups chicken broth, or additional water
1 ham hock (optional)
6-8 leaves fresh basil, sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme
1 teaspoon fresh oregano
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
Salt and black pepper
¼ cups Mom's brand Special Marinara
Soak the beans overnight in enough water to cover by 2 inches, then drain the beans. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon in the olive oil until it starts to get crisp, then add the carrot, celery and onion, stirring until lightly caramelized. Add the garlic and stir 1 minute more. Add 4 cups of water plus 2 cups of chicken broth (or 6 cups of water), followed by the ham hock.
Add the herbs, bay leaves, parsley and seasoning. Stir in the tomato sauce. Bring to a boil and cook until beans are tender and liquid has thickened. Remove the ham hock. To complete this process, use a fork to mash some of the beans into the soup. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a sprinkle of paprika. Serves 6-8.

Why Hating On Your Ex's New Bae Only Makes It Harder To Move On
We all know that gut-wrenching feeling that occurs when you see your ex's name pop up on Facebook. Douchey McLoser is now in a relationship with Queen Bitch.
First, it's a shock. Maybe you shed a few tears or feel some twinges of regret.
But then comes the social media stalking. You start taking screenshots of the new girlfriend's profile pics and, more importantly, screenshots of some of the ugly tagged ones.
You then send them to your BFF, asking, "I'm prettier than her, right?" As a prideful and independent woman, I'm ashamed to say I've stooped so low.
But, I'm not above it, and I doubt you are, either. So, stop acting like you've never pulled these moves.
After stalking and trying to figure out what this girl's story is, the comparing stage begins.
What makes her better than me? Is he happier with her?
Maybe she's funnier than me? Prettier? Nope, we already covered that one.
It doesn't matter how things fell apart, who hates whom or how much you truly want him to move on or not. This isn't about that.
Unsettled issues and conflicts with your ex may hurt, but your hate for the new girl is all about comparison.
I've been the stalking, crying and comparing girl before. So this time around, I took a new route, and it feels pretty damn good.
Sure, when I first found out about her, my ex was trying to rub it in my face because I broke his heart. I wanted to throw up, but you'd better believe I put my game face on.
It's much easier to get through anything in life when you act like a confident boss bitch.
Do you really want to be the pathetic ex hating on the new girl? No, that is not a cute look.
Don't waste your life emotionally invested in a part of your past. Why would you put your energy toward someone you don't need while you could be — I don't know — focusing on important things?
Hating on the new girl is something you will regret putting so much time into. It's difficult to move on and let anyone else into your life when you're wrapped up in this piece of what used to be.
Be the bigger person. Easier said than done? Trust me, I know.
But this is something you're going to keep running into in life, so it's time to figure out how to handle it. Chances are, the new girl is intimidated by you.
If she's a standard new girl, she's stalking your Instagram and asking her BFFs for validation. After all, you had her man first. At this point, you still know him better.
Sure, he's probably filling her head with all the reasons he would never want you back and why you're a psycho bitch. But no matter what he says during his time of recovery, he loved the crap out of you.
Sorry to break it to you, but you probably have a lot in common with the new girl. (After all, you do have the same taste in guys.)
Stop trying to find reasons not to like her because you're just attempting to justify yourself. Have some confidence.
If it helps, think of all the things that drove you crazy about him, and laugh at the fact that now, she's the one dealing with them all.
When it comes down to it, you broke up for a reason. It doesn't matter who did the breaking, whose fault it was or why it all happened. The relationship ended for a reason strong enough to pull you apart.
As clichéd as it sounds, it really does mean it wasn't meant to be. There is someone out there for you who is a better match, and that inevitably means there's someone out there who is a better match for him, too.
Maybe it's this girl, or maybe it's the next one. But, letting that weigh on you is causing an unnecessary burden.
You have the power to control the way you act and, in turn, the way you feel. No positivity will be brought into your life by hating this girl.
Empower yourself, and make peace with her.

Our client walked into our showroom looking for advice on how to improve the functionality and feel of their unique and spacious Ancaster home. At the time she did not know whether it made more sense to transform her entire home or search for another house that would meet her family's needs. Perched near the edge of the escarpment with sweeping views, we knew this was a home her family did not want to part with and our goal was to help her transform it and love it. She wished for a modernized kitchen, a style that would still suit the overall design of the house.
We started with a concept for the kitchen, which of course being the hub of the home, was to need a notable transformation in order to better accommodate their growing children, family and friends as well as utilize the available space to its full potential. On our client's wish list was a large island, which was to fill in the expansive area in the centre of the kitchen. This island was to provide a gathering space for entertaining while adding a significant amount of storage. We worked with the original plan of the home and moved appliances around existing windows while maintaining a familiar and practical cooking space for our client. Once we had a concrete plan for the main room of the house, we collaborated with Goldwing Renovations and visited other areas of the house including 4 bathrooms and a spacious home office, to ensure that all areas of this main floor renovation came together and met the requests and needs of our client and her family. Full home renovations are always a journey and this project was one with another beautiful end result.

July 2014
By Chitra Jha
The Great War between the parts that we love and the parts that we reject can only be won when we love and accept every part of ourselves, for all of it is divine, says Chitra Jha
When I first heard the words, "Know thyself", I conjured up an image of some mysterious divine self inside me, who I had to 'seek' and know. But gradually, as I progressed on the Path, I understood that know thyself simply means – know your day-to-day self through its day-to-day expressions. Be conscious of all your aspects and understand that all the aspects are an expression of the divine Self that you are. There aren't "certain" divine qualities within you, your entire being is divine; every expression of yours is divine.
he moment we understand this truth, we start valuing each aspect of ourselves. We also realise that 'I am the one I was looking for." This is the true import of the term.
I arrived at this delightful understanding after a great deal of introspection and contemplation. Allow me to share my personal understandings in a nutshell with you.
There are multiple selves in one human body
Our normal perception of ourselves (the human software) limits us into thinking that inside us there is one 'self' with a distinct personality. But when we look within, and encounter our thoughts and emotions, we begin to understand that our "personality" is not formed by just one "self" but a multitude of them. We actually house a 'crowd' within us. There may be a rebel self, a seducer self, an intellectual self, a wise self, an organiser self, a devotee self, and a victim self; each with a different story, a distinct style and a motivation of its own, often strikingly dissimilar from that of the others. No wonder they are usually not at peace with each other. In fact, they are constantly in conflict. Their individual impulses, desires, principles, obligations, and aspirations create an unceasing struggle within us.
Identify all the 'selves' that reside inside your body
If you wish to identify your sub-personalities, first make a list of all your 'known and accepted' personality traits. Imagine that each trait belongs to one 'self' residing inside you. Identify as many 'selves' inside you as you can. For example, inside me live an honest, a loving, an intelligent and a wise self. However, since we operate in a plane of duality, the polar opposite of these 'selves' must also be inside me – whether I am aware of them or not; which means that inside me also lives a dishonest, unloving, unintelligent, and a stupid self. (And this is just a small list, the more observant of yourself you are, the more your list grows – until you realise that you have every possible kind of person in your personality.)
Notice your feelings about your 'selves'
When you make your own list you will notice that while you feel very good about acknowledging the presence of the first group of selves or people, it is very difficult to acknowledge the presence of the second group. The attachment to the first group and the aversion to the second group is the cause of all our inner (and outer) conflicts.
The Operative Ego
The first group of selves together form our Operative Ego – the cornerstone of our personality. Its primary purpose is to protect us from pain. It helps us satisfy our inner need to avoid the pain. This protector-controller group emerges early in our life. As a child, we look around and notice what type of behavior is rewarded, and what is punished. We figure out the rules of the world around us, and create an appropriate model of behavior for ourselves in our specific environment. Our operating ego takes birth from this acceptable code of behavior. It determines how we should operate in this world, and how others should perceive us. As we grow up, some other parts of our personality develop and contribute their flavour to the original operative ego.
We own all our primary selves with pride and consider them 'right' for us (and for others) – after all they bring us success and rewards. This 'ownership' creates our righteous behavior. The more attached we are to our primary selves, the more righteous and judgmental we become. Our 'operating ego' is the window through which we see our world.
Our Inner Child
The second group of 'selves' together forms our Inner Child – a term coined by Dr. Carl Jung, a Swiss psycho-analyst, to represent our suppressed, disowned sub-personalities, that don't find favour in either our inner or outer environment. We consider them the 'wrong' kind of selves, the kind that need to be punished – after all, they bring us pain.
These 'rejected' selves make us feel vulnerable, sensitive, emotional and shy. We cannot expose them to others for fear of ridicule. Since we ourselves reject them, we fear that others too will reject them. We hide them behind the operating ego's masks; which loves to 'control' them and keep them in their place. It does the same with such people out in the world too.
The inner struggle
The 'operating ego' makes us outwardly focussed. It wants us to stay engaged with people, things, food, body, shopping, TV, Internet, news, politics, pollution – in short anything and everything that doesn't leave us with any time or inclination to focus within; because the moment we look within, we will have to face our inner child – the disowned sub-personalities, the inner demons. The operating ego's mandate (charter of duty) is to protect us from these inner ghosts and it does its duty very efficiently – no wonder we keep promoting it.
However, the inner child is equally smart. It sends out a vibration (an SOS message) to the universe to bring us those people, situations and circumstances that will "trigger" the appearance of one or the other sub-personality. A constant barrage of such triggers and the resultant showing up of the sub-personalities – who have to show up very quickly, before the operating ego has a chance to control and suppress them (this is what happens in a stress reaction) – increases the work-load of the operating ego. So much so that it begins to feel overwhelmed, tired, stressed, and frustrated with its non-stop work. This is when it turns to some substance to dull its pain. Our addictions are our operating ego's ways of dulling its pain – the pain that it incurs as a cost of sparing us the pain of owning up and facing our hurt and wounded sub-personalities. And why are the sub-personalities (the inner child) hurt and wounded? Well, anyone who is suppressed, disowned, unloved, unacknowledged, unrecognised, rejected, and controlled would feel hurt and wounded. Wouldn't you feel the same?
Illness and death
When nothing else works, the inner child brings out the most potent tool from its arsenal to draw our attention to it. This is the tool of physical pain and illness. Even the smartest of the operating egos can't deny the presence of illness and physical pain. However, it uses the blame-game (blame weather, people, bacteria, virus, mosquitoes, whoever – but DO NOT LOOK WITHIN) to divert our attention and urges us to take resort to prescription drugs. (The only difference between illicit drugs and prescription drugs is the regulation of dosage. The long-term damage to the body's hardware is the same.)
The inner child sends an SOS for more pathogens, who in their love for our "suppressed selves", create more pain. Now the battle becomes more intense. The lines are drawn more clearly. The operating ego uses all the means at its disposal – people, money, material, drugs. And inner child summons its forces – pain, pathogens, and immobility. A lot of energy (time, money, resources, and health) is lost in this battle. Both sides suffer immense losses. Both feel tired, helpless, hopeless, and depressed. But neither knows the way out of this mess. Finally, the body cannot take it anymore and gives way.
Operative ego and inner child get liberated from this body, and look for another "battle-field" to continue their war. And the karmic war carries on.
Lack of acknowledgement
The problem is that we not only don't acknowledge our sub-personalities, we also do not acknowledge our operating ego or our primary selves. We refrain from praising these 'selves' in our false humility; in order to not sound too proud. The operating ego feels hurt and unrecognised by this dismissive behaviour – especially after all the pains it takes to "protect" us from the so-called demons within. Hence, it begins to "exert" itself more strongly and develops "show-off" tendencies. This creates our need to talk about (and hear about) our accomplishments all the time. Such talk pleases our operating ego and strengthens it. However, it also makes it work double-shift to suppress the sub-personalities.
Detachment with ego
When we first become 'aware' of this drama going on inside us (and also being reflected in our outer world), we begin to 'detach' ourselves from the 'operating ego'. Of course, the ego resents and resists this detachment big time. It feels unloved – 'not good enough' – and wonders what went wrong. In order to win back that love (and attachment) it begins to do its job of controlling the sub-personalities and protecting us from pain more vigorously. (The dramas in our outer world intensify as well.) However, the moment the sub-personalities sense the change of dynamics, they start showing up more and more. This increases the operating ego's work and tires it out.
Delusional operative ego
The stronger (or more delusional) the operative ego, the more the fear of suppressed sub-personalities showing up – hence, the greater the suppression and control (both in the inner and outer worlds). Such people can't relax. They can't let their hair or guard down. There is a lot at stake. The whole 'reputation' of the operative ego (the one we identify with most strongly) is at stake.
Have you ever wondered why simple, humble folks do not need to suppress their inner traits so much? They have nothing to lose. When we have nothing to lose, we are fearless. A person who has nothing to lose or nothing to fear cannot be controlled. Hence, the whole world operates upon the "carrot and stick' policy. You can be controlled if you have something to lose or something to fear – even notionally. Fear of loss is the biggest fear – even if it is a notional loss.
In our mob mentality, we don't pause to think if our fears are real or notional. It is either fight or flight for us. Who has the time to pause and think?
Awareness and compassion
When we begin to pause and think, we become aware that everyone needs love, acceptance, acknowledgement, appreciation, and recognition. So, we begin to offer these gifts not only to all the disowned selves (as and when they show up) but also to the operating ego, which is only doing its assigned job. When the disowned selves are owned and acknowledged as an integral part of the same 'whole', the need to control them is no longer there, and the operating ego dissolves (it has no more role to play – no more job to do).
When we appreciate our primary selves – our so-called good qualities – without guilt, we enhance our self-confidence and self-esteem. A healthy self-esteem does not feel the need to suppress the sub-personalities. It helps us take our so-called shortcomings in our stride. And we remain comfortable 'being human'.
When the 'operative ego' feels appreciated, it calms down. It still does its job of keeping the sub-personalities under control, but does so more professionally, without any personal axe to grind. After all, it is getting its due.
When the inner child knows that it is allowed to express itself within a certain boundary, it loses the inner need to jump up and show itself at the first opportune moment. (Have you seen how children 'act up' when they are not allowed free expression within given boundaries? Our inner child does the same. It re-acts.)
When the operative ego and inner child begin to 'understand' each other; an inner truce is declared, which gets reflected in the outer world. When both work together for our highest good, miracles get created. We do not need to fall sick, or face adversity; because the inner Child is being heard. We do not need to act pricey or show off because the Operative Ego feels appreciated. We do not need to control or suppress anyone, because all is well in 'Ram Rajya'.
Awareness helps us see that all small selves joined together form the Self. Compassion helps us look at both warring sides and realise that both are right in their own way. It makes both feel 'understood' and loved. Both awareness and compassion help us in integrating all the conflicting elements by embracing them as important aspects of duality.
When both begin to work together joyously, our life becomes joyful. When our relationship with our 'Self' is healed, all our outer relationships heal as well.
Back in the 15th century, Kabir Das sang, "Pothi padh padh jag mua, Pandit bhayo na koye, Dhai aakhar prem ka, Padhe so pandit hoye." People who fill themselves up with bookish knowledge die without achieving mastery, but one who learns two-and-a-half syllables of love, becomes a Master.
How do we learn these two-and-a-half syllables? The answer lies in 'loving the Self'. The more we learn to love and accept all aspects of self – the more we become filled with love for Self – the Master within. It all begins and ends with us. We are the Alpha and the Omega.
I am
It is only after I truly understood my 'Self' that I realized the import of 'I am……'; for whatever I write after 'I am…..' is an expression of the Divine. 'I am……' is the strongest proclamation of the Divine. If I say, "I am dark" then dark is divine; if I say, 'I am fat', then fat is divine. However, it is up to me if that is the expression I wish to choose and create.
By proclaiming that I am fat and dark; I am creating more of that divine aspect in my being. Dark and fat are divine aspects but the question is, 'do I want to embody these divine aspects?' I have 'infinite' choices of expression. I can choose those divine qualities (all qualities are divine) that make me feel good about myself – that I enjoy expressing. AHA! This was a big "aha" moment. I create my "Self" (all the selves within me) by my "I am" statements. It is time to become more aware of them; and create my "selves" consciously.
Through the above understanding, I found the answer to the question, "Who am I?" Whatever I write/say after, "I am ………" is who I also am. Everything I fill in this blank is an expression of my divine Self – God, if you please!
I am expanding the definition of God through my 'being'……and so are you!
This answer is truly liberating. I feel freer than I have ever felt.
Now I KNOW my "Self"………and the journey of discovering more of me continues…
Wow! This sure is exciting!

Inspired by Minecraft, Zelda, Diablo and more...capable of melting the heart of our own Luke Plunkett (actually, the guy already worships The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)...and just all-around amazing-looking...
This is the game codenamed Cube World. It's being made by a mere two people and will be out for PCs eventually. It can be played solo, but what we've got here is a stretch of multiplayer. So pretty!
Details about what's in the video, from the game's lead creator, Wollay:
- Hang gliders: You will probably get these with level 10 or higher. They're quite fun to use, especially when you fall down. :) You get stunned and fall down when you fly against a wall.
- Sprinting (consumes stamina)
- Some attacks can stun enemies.
- New monsters and items
- Dungeons
- Rare zones: Just like items, zones can have different rarities. Monsters are stronger here and drop better loot.
- Dungeons: In the video you see a castle dungeon, featuring female Orcs! :P
- We're also adding new zones like lava lands

Buyers Guide
Cast nets, for the most part, don't have numerous varieties. Still, there are sure factors that ensure an imperative job in the execution of the net, and if you don't gauge those elements before getting you net, you probably won't end up with your ideal one.
While you may think it is as basic as tossing any conventional net into the water, truly, there is some belief that should be put into it. Without the correct net and appropriate information of how to utilize a bait cast net, you could finish up tossing your net directly over a school of baitfish and not catching anyone. To enable you to stay away from this, and to explore the many cast net sorts available, we have assembled a guide that will enable you to pick the perfect cast net for your angling needs.
Net size
The measure of the net you pick will depend on your involvement with the game. Fledglings will need to run with a net no greater than 8 feet. By and large, the span of the net is estimated as far as its sweep when opened. On different occasions, it is estimated by how tall it is when held up. Most experienced net hurlers will get themselves a 10-foot net. Meanwhile, experts that are very much prepared will, in general, go with the greater 12-foot net yet this is basically not utilized or required by the general angler.
Obviously, the experience level isn't the main factor to think about while picking your net size. In case you are on an expansive ocean angling vessel, you will require a bigger net than if you are on a little kayak or ordinary kayak. In case you are using small vessels, you need a smaller net as well.
Net Weight
The net weight alludes to the measure of weight that is added to the border of the net to enable it to sink at a quicker rate. The most well-known net loads you will go over are 0.75 pounds, 1 pound and 1.5 pounds per sweep foot. So a 6 foot net furnished with 1 pound for every foot will have a gross load of between 8-9 pounds including the genuine net weight.
While you may feel that heavier weight is dependably a superior decision, it depends entirely on the profundity of water you plan the net weight alludes to the measure of weight that is added to the edge of the net to enable it to sink at a quicker rate. The most well-known net loads you will go over are 0.75 pounds, 1 pound and 1.5 pounds per sweep foot. So a 6 foot net outfitted with 1 pound for every foot will have a gross load of between 8-9 pounds including genuine net weight.
While you may imagine that heavier weight is dependably a superior decision, it depends entirely on the depth of water you intend to toss into. Most of the time, a heavier net will be a superior alternative as it will sink quicker. On the negative, a heavier net will require significantly more exertion to toss into the water effectively. In shallow water, a heavier net will require more exertion and not really create that quite a bit of a more prominent outcome. Finding a weight that adjusts exertion and depth is perfect.
Catch size
As referenced already, you will need to give close consideration to the size and kind of the lure you want to catch. In case you are hoping to get mullet, it will require more net than compared to the case where you are hoping to lure shrimp. This plays a pretty vital role in deciding the mesh size; it has a very important role in the size of your net as well. Fish that are small and remain in shallower waters will require both a mesh size & net size that is smaller as compared to the bait cast nets.
Mesh size
When you have settled on a perfect size for your next angling net, it is critical to focus on the size of the mesh you need. Mesh size is basically the span of the weave in your net or the gaps found in them. If you are going to catch small fish, you will require a small sized weave with the goal that the fish cannot just swim out once they have been caught in the cast net.
The size of the mesh you will require relies upon two principal factors: how deep you intend to cast your net and the span of lure you are hoping to get. Fortunately, small bait will, in general, remain in shallower waters while greater fish will, in general, live in somewhat more deep waters. This enables the two variables to be firmly related that you won't need to give this thing a lot of thought.
In case you are hoping to cast into shallow waters of below 3 feet, a size of ¼" will be perfect. Here you will most likely effectively get lures like shrimp and minnows. This sort of throwing should be possible from the shoreline and does not require a vessel of any sort.
You will need to remember that the smaller the size of the mesh, the slower your net will sink underneath the water's surface. Hence, a work size of ¼" will sink at a slower rate than a ½" work net. Due to this, you won't be successful throwing a ¼" net into 6 feet of water. This is on the grounds that it will sink to the base at an excessively moderate rate to successfully have the capacity to get any fish.
There is a wide range of strategies utilized for successfully tossing a cast net. We prescribe attempting a couple of various strategies to get a decent handle at the game and finding a technique that works best for you.
While there are numerous online instructional exercises that you can access, the best strategy is to band together with somebody who is experienced and learn from them. Many cast nets will accompany guidelines, and some even have instructional exercise recordings that will enable you to pick up the information vital for progress.
Final thoughts
Angling is a good outdoor activity, and it is pretty addictive as well. In case you love fishing yet you don't have the tolerance for sitting with an angling pole for quite a long time, then what you need is a cast net!
They are significantly problem free. You additionally get the opportunity to angle in various waters. The best part is you get the opportunity to get huge amounts of fishes in one go. Cast nets additionally don't require any broad procedures or principle to pursue and with some training, you can ace the craftsmanship.
Cast nets are accessible in an assortment of sizes which makes them an incredible option for beginners. Begin with a little sized net and then move on to others. These nets are additionally an incredibly kid-friendly choice which will empower you to invest some good time with your child while having loads of fun!
Likewise, bait cast nets are intended to enable you to profit by a fruitful catch and guarantee that you get loads of bait.
We've provided you with reviews of the best cast nets for the money, all the while keeping your needs & requirements in mind. So just go out, purchase the best cast net accessible in the market & have a great time!

The Muslim Association of Britain welcomes the suspension of a number of members of the Conservative party, due to Islamophobia, as a result of the BBC's actions.
We hope that the party takes appropriate swift action against these suspensions and that an independent inquiry into Islamophobia within the party follows as a whole.
Former MEP Sajjad Karim's confirmation that a current serving minister directed Islamophobic abuse towards him demonstrates the extent of which Islamophobia is normalised within the party and thus the urgent need for a comprehensive and thorough investigation throughout its ranks.
Anas Altikriti, President of MAB said, "The Prime Minister's call for a general investigation into all forms of hate is simply not enough given the party's specific problem with Islamophobia. There is evidence of current ministers as well as the Prime Minister contributing to this problem. We are, therefore, reiterating our demands that the party takes serious measures that would challenge the rise of this repugnant form of racism on every single level."

Where's Michaela's Missing Ring on 'HTGAWM'?
Warning: Spoilers ahead!
On Thursday night's winter finale of How to Get Away With Murder, "Kill Me, Kill Me, Kill Me," we finally learned who killed Annalise Keating's husband, Sam: Wes Gibbins. (Although, Michaela Pratt probably helped with her slick over-the-railing maneuver. How did Sam survive that fall, anyway?) The episode was packed full of shocking "OMG" moments, but, when it was all said and done, I was left thinking about one specific thing: Michaela's missing engagement ring. A few weeks ago, during Episode 3, "Smile, Or Go to Jail," we discovered that Michaela lost her engagement ring while helping to get rid of Sam's body. Surprisingly, none of her bright law student accomplices were all that concerned or even willing to help her look for it. Isn't anybody worried that the ring might turn up at some point in the near future and link one or all of them to the crime? Yeesh. HTGAWM doesn't return with new episodes until Jan. 29, so in the meantime, let's ponder: what role will Michaela's missing engagement ring play in the remainder of Season 1? I've got a couple ideas...
After the students (sans Asher Millstone) decide to burn Sam's body in the woods in order to get rid of all of the DNA evidence, they proceed to... chop him up into tiny little pieces and put those pieces into garbage bags. Whoa. Whoa.
There's an argument when it comes to disposing of Sam's remains. Wes wants to take them to an incinerator (probably a smart choice, but, uh, where does he plan on gaining access to one of those?) and everyone else just wants to throw the bags into a dumpster. Wes is outnumbered — a dumpster it is! It's around this time that Michaela discovers that her ring is gone. She's panicking, but everyone else is sort of like, "What a drama queen! It's just a ring, get over it." ...BUT WHY ISN'T ANYONE THINKING ABOUT THE IMPACT THAT THIS COULD HAVE ON THEIR EFFORTS TO, YOU KNOW, STAY OUT OF JAIL?
When they arrive at the dumpster, Michaela starts to look for her ring in one of the bags, but is too grossed out to continue. (Which I understand, but also... try harder? Your future is at stake, hello?) Connor Walsh, who appeared to be having a great time cutting up Sam, tells her to grow up and chucks the remainder of the bags.
Case closed. ...Or is it? As morning comes, viewers are deliberately (in my opinion) shown a shot of a garbage truck collecting the contents of the dumpster. Now, this could've been a way to say, "Ah, the garbage is gone. They're home free!" Or, it could've been a way to say, "Pay very close attention to what's happening right now — it's going to come back to bite everyone in the ass later on." I suspect it's the latter.
So, where did our group of fearless future lawyers go wrong? Well, what if they were captured on a security camera at the dumpster? Now, I'm not a garbage expert (yet), but aren't some private dumpsters under surveillance in order to prevent random people from using them? If the students were caught on tape disposing of a bunch of garbage bags... yeah, that would be really bad for them.
Is it possible that the bags could then be recovered before they end up in a landfill somewhere (again, not a garbage expert)? The remains might be unidentifiable, but if Michaela's ring turns up inside one of the bags... yeah, that would be really bad for them, too. (Well, it would mostly be bad for Michaela, but, if someone like Asher were to testify in court that he knew that they were all together that night, then they all could be in trouble.)
Of course, I could be wrong about this whole dumpster thing. It's also possible that, somehow, the police will be led to the woods while investigating Sam's disappearance and stumble upon Michaela's ring on the ground — you know, right next to a big, person-shaped fire pit. That would be really bad, as well. I suppose the ring could've fallen off during the struggle with Sam at the Keating household. It might be found by Michaela or one of the other students and end up being a total non-issue — but that's not what my gut is telling me here. This feels like a big, important loose end.
I'll admit, in some ways, HTGAWM is kind of a silly show — but it's an important one, too. Even with its occasionally over-the-top acting and probably unrealistic legal proceedings, it still manages to be a compelling, fun hour of television, week after week. Personally, I can't wait to see how the rest of Season 1 unfolds.

I always had good feeling about mobile ecommerce; the best practices to make shopping (on mobile) simple, easy, quick & painless. Until recently when I came upon an article which spoke about the real "ecommerce world" riddled by issues which most ecommerce merchants are still working on. And these issues are just not the minor obstacles in a path to glory, but are some major hassles that are costing businesses more than half of their mobile sales.
It is then that I realized how it is like to be shopping on a high-end phone, in a private boat, and still not feel right about it!! And that is because of the numerous complications & problems that need to be taken care of. A recent study found that an unresponsive site (especially for mobiles) has a high rate of seeing a bounce rate of up to 75%. This is a staggering number of potential customers bouncing out, when you can take care of the responsiveness and mobile enhancement on your own. While many feel that the field of mobile ecommerce is quite confusing, it doesn't have to be so. Let us look at a few points about what is bothering the customers when it comes to mobile ecommerce, why cart abandonment is one of the biggest threat to a business and how digital wallets can be used to increase mobile conversions.
So What Exactly Is Going Wrong?
If you have ever visited your own website on a phone and attempted to purchase something, congratulations! You have taken the first step towards creating a seamless shopping experience to your customers. It is obvious that if you are able to find the smallest issue while shopping, your Such shortcomings eventually lead to cart abandonment when the customer leaves the website without buying anything from the items added to the cart. Apart from this, there are a few other reasons which concern the ecommerce market as the customers are not quite finding it comfortable while shopping on a mobile device.
It is a Complete Mess
I have seen many such websites all over the internet. The website looks as though the company is running a scam or they themselves don't know what they are doing. Such poor UI/UX for websites are a major factor for the customers to turn away. A study conducted a few years ago saw that a whopping 94% of the customers who were hesitant about a website, were because of its design.
Along with the design & ecommerce website development, comes a bunch of functionalities and features which when handled in an improper manner, can cause quite a bit of a problem.Pop-ups or overlays are one such effective tools which when used effectively can play a huge part in consumer experience and for gathering leads. But utmost care needs to be taken when using them on a mobile as they might get very frustrating for someone who is visiting your site for the first time.
The entire shopping experience on an ecommerce website is highly dependent on the images and the content used. As the customers are more prone to buy a product based on its appearance (not the actual one though) and the product description, high-quality images & top-notch product descriptions are a must for the website.
Digital Wallets
I was certainly not surprised when a study through the Baymard Institute claimed that almost 20% of the consumers abandon their carts due to major concerns relating to the safety of their info on a mobile device. I expected to see a greater number of people with similar concerns. This is obvious, since over the years, we have been trained to think that having card information on a mobile device is more dangerous than having it on a desktop. It is at such points that Digital Wallets play their role to remove that fear among consumers, which in turn means more revenue for businesses.
But before we jump right in, what exactly are digital wallets?
A digital wallet or an electronic wallet holds your card details in a manner which allows you to purchase things rapidly without having to compromise on security and encryption. These digital wallets play a major role in eliminating the barriers set up by the tiresome button clicks and lengthy procedures to just checkout from the website.
So what does this mean for the revenue of an ecommerce business?
What is better than just a couple of taps before finalizing the payment and making a checkout from the website? This is what Digital Wallets bring to the consumers who are looking out for convenient ways to shop & this can result in at least three times more conversions through mobile carts leading to better ROI for a standard practice in the market. Quite a deal, isn't it? Allowing the users to pay through Google Wallet, Apple Pay or Amazon Pay reduces the friction points which most of the consumers encounter when they pay normally from their credit cards. 3 out of 10 times, a customer just abandons your cart because he must take out his card and type in the number every time he wants to shop. On the other hand, Digital Wallets allows the customers to buy anything they want in less than 60 seconds. Which one would you prefer?

Case Study
Unique materials for a highly versatile house

Madrid, Spain

Villalón Studio
Kitchen island | Table
End date
Beatriz Aparicio
A home with plenty of light
Natural light is the main feature of this 230 m2 family home located on Calle San Juan de La Salle in Madrid. The Villalón Studio team needed to create functional and versatile spaces that could suit all members of the family, regardless of the occasion or time of day. To this end, the abundance of light entering the house, thanks to its position, has been key to optimising the space to the maximum and making the most of each room.
For the dining room, María Villalón and her team opted for light cream and grey tones, both for the upholstery of the sofas (Tapicerías Ilarcuris) and the rugs as well as for the walls, flooring and furniture, while darker colours were used for the wood in some of the chairs and for a small bar designed to make and serve cocktails, one of the owner's passions. Furthermore, rattan plays an important role, as it is found in the doors of the auxiliary unit situated in one of the sides, as well as in the screens, designed by Pablo Yubero, which act as mobile separators that can adapt the room and the lighting, depending on the desired intimacy or openness.
A large travertine table has been chosen as the centrepiece. A unique piece that undoubtedly draws all the attention and gives this space a great prominence, due to the exclusivity and originality of natural stone. The result is a welcoming, ever-changing and stylish space in which works of art such as those by the Gärna Art Gallery and Beatriz Aiguabella add a touch of colour.
An island that brightens up the kitchen
In the kitchen, maximum use has been made of the space, with an island designed with Dekton Taga, from the Stonika Collection, which is characterised by its blend with nature and its high-shine colours. Taga is a greyish colour with marble-like crystalline veining inspired by the Taj Mahal quartzite, which features all the advantages of Dekton surfaces, such as high resistance to stains, high temperatures, scratches and impacts.
On the island, made by Mármoles Cuesta, is the hob and sink area, followed by a small wooden kitchen diner next to some chairs, where you can eat with the family, have a drink with guests while cooking or use it for any other purpose.
The same natural and minimalist style has been used for the bedroom and bathroom, with the main focus on natural elements such as wood in tables and seats, and organic fabrics in cushions, headrests or curtains. In addition, the natural light that enters through the large windows is, once again, the best ally of the spaces, helping to bring dynamism and spaciousness to every corner of this home.
