I have started swimming at my gym and they do a pilates class on a day i can attend, they have let me book the class but i am now worried i will turn up and be more of a nuisance because i will be limited. Anyone else doing a normal class?
I have started swimming at my gym and they do a pilates class on a day i can attend, they have let me book the class but i am now worried i will turn up and be more of a nuisance because i will be limited. Anyone else doing a normal class?
You would need to ring & check with your instructor. I joined my mum's pilates class but I got here to ask the instructor before hand. There's a fair amount of tweaking/ changing exercises for me tbh, so once these 8 classes are done then I'll be switching to antenatal yoga 😊
I go to a 'normal' Pilates class and the instructor is so helpful. She always gives me other options. She is a mother herself who did Pilates throughout her pregnancies and is very supportive. I will be going to pregnancy yoga when a spot becomes available though.
Thanks well may try it and see if i like it then as i get bigger i will have to look around for a pregnancy class. X
I did pilates before I got pregnant last time and I carried on through pregnancy in a normal class. I just told the instructor and she gave me other options to do and told me when not to do certain things. There were two of us pregnant in the class at the same time. Eventually I did switch to an antenatal yoga class for the last 10 weeks.
Apparently not as it's all based on the core-only pregnant I've been told. You can still do normal yoga and adjust some of the poses x
I've carried on in my normal pilates class, but have had the same teacher for 2 years. So she knows me and my body well and adjusts as needed! Just waiting for a spot in pre natal to come available for me.
Yeah it was ok but all of the exercises were either laying on belly or laying on back so will have to eventually switch to pregnancy pilates especially as i have never done it before. She was good though and adjusted the ones i couldnt do but felt she was pushing me abit too much and MW (midwife) told me not to do anything i wasnt comfortable with so felt bit awkward saying in front of people 'nope wont be doing that' LOL x
Aw that's good you got to go though 🖒 I'm finishing my 6 week course of (normal) pilates this week coming, then I'll be switching to antenatal yoga. I did it in a previous pregnancy & it was more enjoyable- def nowhere near as much lying on your back stuff! X

I've decided to start selling hats. For two reasons. One) I enjoy making them an two) I don't need the million hats I want to make
It will also give me a bit of money, mainly I see it as fabric buying money (to make more hats)
These are going to be my stock styles:
And here are a few I've made so far!
I've already made my first sale! Just need to pick up the fabric for them tomorrow 🙂
I'm pretty excited about the new business option of being a hatter!

We are trying to push out Adobe Acrobat Standard 7.0 to a bunch of users. I have downloaded the Adobe install shield to create and MST file for the installation. Everything seems to be working great with on e exception. Has anybody figured out how to push out Adobe Standard so that the users do not have to activate the product before using it? I have set the MST file so that the users don't have to deal with the EULA screen, but have not been alble to activate it. I don't want to go to the 80 or 100 machine to manually activate it!
Thanks in advance for any Suggestions.

Even before I finished recording my second CD "One World/The Dawn of Ascension" in January 2002, I had the concept in mind for this record. Originally it was going to be called "On the road home". However I was having a difficult time finding the inspiration and energy to finish the project until I met my soon to be wife Rebecca (who lives in the Philippines) in December, 2004. I renamed the CD "On the road to you" because as the old saying goes, "home is where the heart is" and my home and heart are now with my beloved Becca, as we continue to awaken together to the reality of the Divine life while touring the beautiful Philippine islands.
Though as a songwriter I have my own meaning for the songs that I write, I encourage listeners to also find their own meanings in the songs.
1."Away from home" - I wrote this song after ending a long term relationship several years ago.I was feeling very alone. This song is really a prayer to the Divine for comfort and guidance.
2."Follow the wind" - This song is about awakening to and following our deeper, spiritual, true Self.
3."It's you" - I respect and support anyone in whatever their positive religious or spiritual practice may be. My own path has been more of the metaphysical and experiencial approach to spiritual unfoldment. I am a student of (amongst other things) the life and deeper teachings of the great master Yeshua otherwise know by his greek name as Jesus. This song is to him.
4."Choose again" - My daughter Leira collaborated with me on the lyrics for this song.It's about realizing that no matter how many mistakes we have made (or will make) or how hopeless we may feel, we can always choose again. It's never too late. There is ALWAYS another and better choice.
5."From east to west" - I wrote this song to honor all of the great spiritual teachers that have come to America from the east. I wonder sometimes where we would be as a country without the compassion and wisdom that they have imparted to us so abundantly over the last century. Thank you!
6."A new dream" - The title of this instrumental is a phrase from Toltec philosophy which means to dream this world we are experiencing in a new, peaceful and joyful way.
7."Mahal Kita" - These are the words for "I love you" in tagalog, the national language of the Philippines. Of course I wrote this song for my sweet mahal,Rebecca. To listen click here
8."The way to you" - After I went to the Philippines for the first time at the end of April 2005,I wasn't going to be able to return until December because of work. This song was my promise to her that I would return.
9."Missing you blues" - You know, seven months is a long time to have to wait to be with your soulmate in person again. I did however return in December.
10."I am here" - Rebecca and I wrote the words for this song together as an affirmation of the boundless love and caring we have for each other,that knows no distance.I also see an even deeper message in this song. To listen click here
11."Holding on"- I started writing this song in 1990 with no particular person in mind. It was my dream about being with my soulmate and awakening to the wonder of Divine Love and Eternal Life together. The dream is finally coming true.
12."Amber skies" - There are so many beautiful places in this world. I get such a warm feeling inside looking out over the ocean, illuminated under the hue of amber skies. This instrumental is my way of attempting to describe that feeling.
13."A bridge" - I wrote this song to express some of my deepest feelings to and for my kids. May we all find ways to attempt to bridge the gap that we may feel between ourselves and those we love so much.
14."Take me home" - I originally wrote this song for another singer that I was going to produce a couple years ago. She ended up abandoning the project but I liked the song so much that I decided it would be a fitting last song for this album. May we all find our way home to true Love,Peace and Joy!
I hope you enjoy the record. May the Great Divine bless you all!

Our appointment is scheduled for the morning of Friday the 13th. Let's just hope that is not a portent of bad things to come!

Malaysiakini has a Chinese language edition but in its English department, this is what's produced in pinyin when translating the words of Zahid Hamidi (above clip) from the Chinese:
(A) Wo shi Ma Lai ren, [but] Wo men dou shi Ma Lai Si Ya ren (In translation: I am Malay, but we are
still all Malaysians).
This is how the above pinyin would be rendered in the Chinese form or Mandarin:
我是马来人 [但是] 我们都是马来四亚人
Reconverting those characters into pinyin, this is how it might be rewritten:
(B) wo'shi malairen [danshi] wo'men doushi malaixiyaren
Notice the differences between (A) and (B). As example, take 马来四亚人 which, in a single breath, reads as malaixiyaren, meaning Malaysians. It reads in one go because that's how you would also read the word Malaysian and not in a monosyllable form that breaks the word into three syllabi ma-lay-sians.
Which version (A) or (B) reads better? Or smoother? Which is clumsy? Minus the capitalization, is the pinyin phonetic any inferior to the one with the capital letters? Is the capitalization even necessary? Why treat each hanyu character as a standalone, meaning-independent word, like it were an English word when it is not? Why equate pinyin to English at all? Why dictate Chinese on English terms?
In interpreting Chinese, the Anglophile editors of Malaysiakini commit two sins
- Forcing English grammatical rules onto an Oriental language such as Chinese which does not obey those rules.
- Force Mandarin to fit an English monosyllable pattern although the two are completely dissimilar language systems.
What those sins reveal isn't just the ignorance of the Malaysiakini editors but they reflect their arrogance and their acquiring, through education and social habits, of colonial prejudices; in this case interpreting Chinese on English terms. To Anglophiles, the Chinese hanyu never qualifies as a Malaysian language. But English does; it is their mother tongue in fact.

"Is someone getting the best, the best of you?"
Life goes along swimmingly and then you are presented with a life truth. It makes you question whether your beliefs are valid. Whether they make sense. Those beliefs, they fit into your turning world but how they can fit into someone elses when the universe deals them such a blow? How can it be truly explained? Yes the ideas still fit but the reality, so harsh just doesn't make sense. Truly beautiful people, not having done anything in this lifetime to suggest such horrible karma. I just think why……
For a little while now I've been pondering a friendship I have and whether to approach this person as I genuinely have no idea where the friendship sits. Technically the friendship is current, As no harsh words have been spoken but energetically and nuances in behaviour indicate something has shifted…..
Upon pondering and processing and then hearing news of a person's terminal illness it puts it all in to perspective. It puts life in perspective. It puts the everyday into perspective. It doesn't really matter how or what I do to deal with this friendship matter. It is all just background noise to living life.
This week I have regularly been given signs alluding to this. I reposted a TEDX presentation by Louie Schwartzberg from San Francisco on my facebook pages. The message was simple. What if you woke up and today was going to be your last day. Did you live your life as best you could on that day? {Watch It Here Below}
Whilst sitting with my thoughts today with this blog forming in my head the Foo Fighters – Best of You song came on. Irrelevant as to their meaning for the song the words resonated with me. Am I giving the best of me. Are we all giving the best of ourselves to the world. To the people we connect with everyday. I actually don't think it is the hard to do. As long as we have the intention of no harm and kick our egos out of the way, we can live giving the best of ourselves.
Finally the last piece or should I say peace of the puzzle made sense. As many of you know I use Oracle Cards in my daily life for myself and for others. Varying the deck and depending on the day the Peace card has come up more than once during this week. I didn't know how it related. It fits perfectly now.
If we act in peace, if we send out peace in answer to any situation, the answer normally comes forth or ultimately the situation dissipates.
I still don't have the answer as to why bad things happen to good people. I don't think anyone does.
It's not that Ive never encountered illness or death before of those I love. What I think it is, is that as I get older life just makes less sense.
Life is about peace.
I know for this person ultimately when time is closing in for their current moment on earth I'm sure as people have said before when living this situation, it will be about peace within themselves.
I'll be working on peace but also what has been on my mind over recent months and that is service {A blog post that is forming}
How do you give the best of you?
