Before a VDA can be used, it must register (establish communication) with one or more Controllers on the site. The VDA finds a Controller by checking a list of Controllers called the ListofDDCs. The ListOfDDCs on a VDA contains DNS entries that point that VDA to Controllers on the site. For load balancing, the VDA automatically distributes connections across all Controllers in the list.
Why is VDA registration so important?
In addition to the ListOfDDCs, the ListOfSIDs (Security IDs) indicates which machines in the ListOfDDCs are trusted. The ListOfSIDs can be used to decrease the load on Active Directory or to avoid possible security threats from a compromised DNS server. For more information, see ListOfSIDs below.
If a ListOfDDCs specifies more than one Controller, the VDA attempts to connect to them in random order. The ListOfDDCs can also contain Controller groups. The VDA attempts to connect to each Controller in a group before moving to other entries in the ListOfDDCs.
XenApp and XenDesktop automatically test the connectivity to configured Controllers during VDA installation. Errors are displayed if a Controller cannot be reached. If you ignore a warning that a Controller cannot be contacted (or when you do not specify Controller addresses during VDA installation), messages remind you.
The administrator chooses the configuration method to use when the VDA registers with a Controller for the first time. (This is called the initial registration.) During the initial registration, a persistent cache is created on the VDA. During subsequent registrations, the VDA retrieves the list of Controllers from this local cache, unless a configuration change is detected.
The easiest way to retrieve that list during subsequent registrations is by using the auto-update feature. Auto-update is enabled by default. For more information, see Auto-update.
There are several methods for configuring Controller addresses on a VDA.
You specify the initial registration method when you install a VDA. (If you disable auto-update, the method you select during VDA installation will also be used for subsequent registrations.)
The following graphic shows the Delivery Controller page of the VDA installation wizard.
Citrix recommends using GPO for initial VDA registration. It has the highest priority. (Auto-update is listed above as the highest priority, but auto-update is used only after the initial registration.) Policy-based registration offers the centralizing advantages of using Group Policy for configuration.
To specify this method, complete both of the following steps:
This setting is stored under HKLM\Software\Policies\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent (ListOfDDCs).
In the last step of the example in the auto-update section, we moved Controller B to a different Site. Auto-update takes care of updating the caches for VDAs in the Site where Controller B previously resided. The administrator for the Site where Controller B now resides simply creates/updates the policy setting to add the FQDN of Controller B.
To specify this method, complete one of the following steps:
This information is usually stored in registry value ListOfDDCs under registry key HKLM\Software\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent or HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent.
You can also configure this registry key manually or use Group Policy Preferences (GPP). This method might be preferable to the policy-based method (for example, if you want conditional processing of different Controllers, such as: use XDC-001 for computer names that begin with XDW-001-).
Update the ListOfDDCs registry key, which lists the FQDNs of all the Controllers in the Site. (This key is the equivalent of the Active Directory Site OU.)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent\ListOfDDCs (REG_SZ)
If the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent registry location contains both the ListOfDDCs and FarmGUID keys, ListOfDDCs is used for Controller discovery. FarmGUID is present if a site OU was specified during VDA installation. (This might be used in legacy deployments.)
Optionally, update the ListOfSIDs registry key (for more information, see ListOfSIDs below):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent\ListOfSIDs (REG_SZ)
Remember: If you also enable policy-based VDA registration through Citrix policy, that configuration overrides settings you specify during VDA installation, because it is a higher-priority method.
This method is supported primarily for backward compatibility and is not recommended. If you're still using it, Citrix suggests changing to another method.
To specify this method, complete both of the following steps:
For more details, see Active Directory OU-based discovery.
If you plan to use only MCS to provision VMs, you can instruct MCS to set up the list of Controllers. This feature works with auto-update: MCS injects the list of Controllers into the Personality.ini file during initial provisioning (when creating the machine catalog). Auto-update keeps the list up-to-date.
This method is not recommended for use in large environments. You can use this method if you:
To specify this method:
As best practice:
Auto-update (introduced in XenApp and XenDesktop 7.6) is enabled by default. It is the most efficient method for keeping your VDA registrations up-to-date. Although auto-update is not used for initial registration, the auto-update software downloads and stores the ListOfDDCs in a persistent cache on the VDA when initial registration occurs. This is done for each VDA. (The cache also holds machine policy information, which ensures that policy settings are retained across restarts.)
Auto-update is supported when using MCS or PVS to provision machines, except for PVS server-side cache and for persistent VMs that are manually provisioned.
To specify this method:
How it works:
For example:
In a multi-zone deployment, auto-update in a satellite zone automatically caches all local Controllers first. All Controllers in the primary zone are cached in a backup group. If no local Controllers in the satellite zone are available, registration is attempted with Controllers in the primary zone.
As shown in the following example, the cache file contains hostnames and a list of Security IDs (ListOfSIDs). The VDA does not query SIDs, which reduces the Active Directory load.
You can retrieve the cache file with a WMI call; however, it is stored in a location that's readable only by the SYSTEM account. Important: This information is provided only for information purposes. DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE. Any modifications to this file or folder results in an unsupported configuration.
Get-WmiObject -Namespace "Root\Citrix\DesktopInformation"
-Class "Citrix_VirtualDesktopInfo" -Property "PersistentDataLocation"
If you need to manually configure the ListOfSIDs for security reasons (as distinct from reducing Active Directory load), you cannot use the auto-update feature. For details, see ListOfSIDs below.
Exception to auto-update priority
Although auto-update usually has the highest priority of all VDA registration methods and overrides settings for other methods, there is an exception. The NonAutoListOfDDCs elements in the cache specify the initial VDA configuration method. Auto-update monitors this information. If the initial registration method changes, the registration process skips auto-update, and uses the next-highest configured priority method. This can be helpful when you move a VDA to another site (for example, during disaster recovery).
Controller addresses
Regardless of which method you use to specify Controllers, Citrix recommends using an FQDN address. An IP address is not considered a trusted configuration, because it's easier to compromise an IP than a DNS record. If you populate the ListOfSIDs manually, you can use an IP in a ListOfDDCs. However, FQDN is still recommended.
Load balancing
As noted earlier, the VDA automatically distributes connections across all Controllers in the ListOfDDCs. Failover and load balancing functionality is built into the Citrix Brokering Protocol (CBP). If you specify multiple Controllers in your configuration, registration automatically fails over between them, if needed. With auto-update, automatic failover occurs automatically for all VDAs.
For security reasons, you cannot use a network load balancer, such as NetScaler. VDA registration uses Kerberos mutual authentication, where the client (VDA) must prove its identity to the service (Controller). However, the Controller must prove its identity to the VDA. This means that the VDA and the Controller are acting as server and client at the same time. As noted at the beginning of this article, there are two communications channels: VDA -> Controller and Controller -> VDA.
A component in this process is called Service Principal Name (SPN), which stored as a property in an Active Directory computer object. When your VDA connects to a Controller, it must specify "who" it wants to communicate with; this address is an SPN. If you use a load-balanced IP, mutual Kerberos authentication correctly recognizes that the IP does not belong to the expected Controller.
For more information, see:
Introduction to Kerberos: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/askds/2008/03/06/kerberos-for-the-busy-admin/
Mutual authentication using Kerberos: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms677600
Auto-update replaces CNAME
The auto-update feature replaces the CNAME (DNS alias) function from XenApp and XenDesktop versions earlier than 7.x. CNAME functionality is disabled, beginning with XenApp and XenDesktop 7. Use auto-update instead of CNAME. (If you must use CNAME, see CTX137960. For DNS aliasing to work consistently, do not use both auto-update and CNAME at the same time.)
Controller groups
In certain scenarios, you might want to process Controllers in groups, with one group being preferred and the other group used for a failover if all Controllers fail. Remember that Controllers are randomly selected from the list, so grouping can help enforce preferential use.
Use parentheses to specify groups of controllers. For example, with four Controllers (two primary and two backup), a grouping might be:
(XDC-001.cdz.lan XDC-002.cdz.lan) (XDC-003.cdz.lan XDC-004.cdz.lan).
In this example, the Controllers in the first group (001 and 002) are processed first. If they both fail, Controllers in the second group (003 and 004) are processed.
The list of Controllers that a VDA can contact for registration is the ListOfDDCs. A VDA must also know which Controllers to trust; VDAs do not automatically trust the Controllers in the ListOfDDCs. The ListOfSIDs (Security IDs) identifies the trusted Controllers. VDAs will attempt to register only with trusted Controllers.
In most environments, the ListOfSIDs is generated automatically from the ListOfDDCs. You can use a CDF trace to read the ListOfSIDs.
Generally, there is no need to manually modify the ListOfSIDs. There are several exceptions. The first two exceptions are no longer valid because newer technologies are available.
So, unless you have a specific reason, do not modify the ListOfSIDs.
If you must modify the ListOfSIDs, create a registry key named ListOfSIDs (REG_SZ) under HKLM\Software\Citrix\VirtualDesktopAgent. The value is a list of trusted SIDs, separated by spaces if you have more than one.
In the following example, one Controller is used for VDA registration (ListOfDDCs), but two Controllers are used for brokering (List OfSIDs).
As noted previously, a VDA must be registered with a Delivery Controller to be considered when launching brokered sessions. Unregistered VDAs can result in underutilization of otherwise available resources. There are a variety of reasons a VDA might not be registered, many of which an administrator can troubleshoot. Studio provides troubleshooting information in the catalog creation wizard, and after you create a Delivery Group.
Identifying issues during machine catalog creation:
In the catalog creation wizard, after you add existing machines, the list of computer account names indicates whether each machine is suitable for adding to the catalog. Hover over the icon next to each machine to display an informative message about that machine.
If the message identifies a problematic machine, you can either remove that machine (using the Remove button), or add the machine. For example, if a message indicates that information could not be obtained about a machine (perhaps because it had never registered with a Delivery Controller), you might choose to add the machine anyway.
A catalog's functional level controls which product features are available to machines in the catalog. Using features introduced in new product versions may require a new VDA. Setting a functional level makes all features introduced in that version (and later, if the functional level does not change) available to machines in the catalog. However, machines in that catalog with an earlier VDA version will not be able to register.
Identifying issues after creating Delivery Groups:
After you create a Delivery Group, Studio displays details about machines associated with that group. The details pane for a Delivery Group indicates the number of machines that should be registered but are not. In other words, there might be one or more machines that are powered on and not in maintenance mode, but are not currently registered with a Controller. When viewing a "not registered, but should be" machine, review the Troubleshoot tab in the details pane for possible causes and recommended corrective actions.
For more information about functional levels, see VDA versions and functional levels section in Create Machine Catalogs.
For more information about VDA registration troubleshooting, see CTX136668.
You can also use the Citrix Health Assistant to troubleshoot VDA registration and session launch. For details, see CTX207624.

The 1st trimester has always been the hardest of the three for me. The unrelenting nausea and fatigue of being awake make a daily nap not just a good-to-have. In fact, if I miss one, I'd feel almost unmoored and unable to function until I got a quick cat nap in.
So I was nervous about our trip for many reasons, one of them being the difficulties of traveling so early into the pregnancy. My mom didn't want me to go at all, so worried was she about not only the flight but the tiredness I'd feel traversing new cities with jet lagged kids in tow. In the Chinese culture, it's taboo to travel the first three months, that you're doing it at the risk of the pregnancy.
Unfortunately, the flights and accommodations were booked months ago. There's no way I was skipping this.
But right before the trip, the nausea also started. And I thought, oh my God. What if I get this while on the flight? Will I be hurling into the paper bags the whole time? And, can you imagine how I'll do in the humidity and heat with the morning sickness? The forecast didn't look too bright.
But amazingly, for the most part, the nausea has been so little I'd say it's nonexistent. It comes and goes once in a while. But it's not something that stays with me the whole day like it usually does. And I definitely haven't thrown up (so far anyway).
My energy has also been pretty great. I don't really need a nap even when I've been walking hours with an 18 month old strapped to my chest. The difference in my usual fatigue levels at this point in the pregnancy is shocking. I keep thinking about how surreal it is that the morning sickness has been kept at bay this time around and how active we've been on this trip without being tired. It's really remarkable.
This is not to say it's all been smooth, though. I've been spotting for a week now, and it's actually getting heavier. While the bleeding is normal and occurs in a lot of pregnancies, the recommendation is to see a doctor ASAP, especially since I'm cramping too. The two together is often an indication of a miscarriage. Since I'm abroad though, I figure I'll wait til I get back. Not much to do unless I want to go to an ER. I mean, if it's going to happen, it'll happen. Besides, it's too inconvenient for the boys to be hours without me while I'm at the hospital.
But with the bleeding + cramping, I've been thinking about the possibility of this pregnancy not coming to term and what that means for us as a family. The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning towards stopping and not trying for more and being ok with just two kids. CS is surprisingly more bummed about this than me.
In the meantime, we're trying to keep the last part of this trip more low key to allow me more down time to rest.
Onwards and upwards!

According to my Google search words,"how to tie a bow" is the most constantly searched for DIY. For some of you I realise that this is glaringly obvious but for those who don't, this DIY is just for you. I think I was born with ribbon in my hand as I can't remember when I haven't added a bow to my hair, to a present or even a door handle - to me anything be-ribboned is better. Here's my how to, with a few ideas added in.
Materials - Well anything ribbony really. I love using colourful scraps of fabric (tear selvedge to selvedge to make a strip), netting, grosgrain, velvet anything goes really so get creative.
1) First take your ribbon and fold in half and then half again making a pair of "bunny ears"
2)Put the left "ear" over the right
3) Tuck under and back on itself
4) Pull tight and you have your basic bow
5) Snip your ends to length, I normally keep my ends double the length of the "ears" and always cut on a diagonal
For gift wrapping
1) Find the centre of your strip and place horizontally across your box (so there are equal lengths either sides)
2) Flip your box over, and twist your ribbons 90 degrees
3)Bring your ribbons back to the top and secure in a double knot
4) Repeat steps on a basic bow
I love using brown paper and colourful ribbons for my presents, it works for any occasion and anytime of yearAmazon for a bumper pack) to make a cute little brooch. There is so much beautiful embellished ribbon out there buy something decadent and give out as gifts, I think that they would make great favors for a wedding. Alternatively you can spruce up an old necklace buy tying a length of colourful ribbon or fabric onto it, tie just of centre to keep it interesting.
Now your set to make your life bow-tastic - happy making!

September 29, 2009 --People with moderate hearing loss report good results with a new hearing aid called the Lyric. The device fits deep in the ear. Because of that positioning, the microphone is right by the ear drum.
Users says the device provides better sound quality with less feedback than other hearing aids. Wearers control the volume and turn the device on and off with a remote.
The Lyric must be replaced every two to three months, when batteries fade.
The hearing aid is expensive. A two-year supply costs close to $4,000.

By now, there is no person who has not heard of the picture taking stall which we get to see in most of the events these days. Though it has been there for some time, right now it is very much used by a number of event organizers to add more fun for their guests. Also, by now these pictures taking stalls have also gone through their own transformation process which has made them quite an attractive addition to have at any event.
However, you should know that by now due to the advances in the photography industry we have two types of picture taking stalls which we can use at events.
The Traditional Picture Taking Stall
The traditional picture taking stall is the one you will see at most of the events. It is the picture taking stall which offers you the chance to get pictures alone or with a group of friends posing as you want to. These days the picture taking stalls are also digitally operated ones. So, you will have the chance of using a touch screen to give the instructions about the way you want the pictures to be taken.
The Picture Taking Stall with the Green Screen
Then, we have the other kind of picture taking stall which is a Singapore photo booth that comes with a green screen. While the traditional one is going to take pictures of you with the background which actually exists at the place, this green screen picture taking stall is going to put any background you want to have in the background and take your picture. This means though you are really in a building somewhere in the city you could taking a picture in front of the Eiffel tower. This can be a really fun experience to have for anyone taking pictures in such a picture taking stall.
There is no rule which says you should choose this picture taking stall or the other. You just have to consider what will please your guests the most and what you can afford to spend for the picture taking stall. However, you need to remember you will only get complete satisfaction out of the pictures you take at the picture taking stall if it is provided to you by a good picture taking firm. They usually make sure they have the best picture taking stalls for the people who come looking for them. Also, their help throughout the process will make everyone happy. You will be able to get exactly what you want from them.

Jim McCann
JIM McCANN
Founder & CEO of 1-800-FLOWERS.com, entrepreneur, and growth expert
Stop and Sell the Roses
What Being a Social Worker Taught Me
The Importance of Relationship Building and Customer Service
Lessons as an e-Commerce Pioneer
McCann's focus on customer relationships and his willingness to embrace new technologies and business channels helped change the way flowers and other gifts are marketed for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays and special occasions.
McCann recognized early on the enormous potential in providing on-the-go consumers with the ability to express themselves and connect with the important people in their lives through top quality floral gifts combined with exemplary, personal service. McCann has also consistently managed to stay ahead of the curve in multi-channel retailing by embracing new technologies, such as 800 phone numbers and the Internet, often long before other retailers recognized the opportunities that these developments would provide both for business and consumers.
In addition to being the first company to have its 800-telephone number as its name – a marketing insight that helped solidify the brand in consumer's minds – McCann was a pioneer in online retailing – seizing the enormous reach of the Internet as early as 1991. Utilizing thorough knowledge of his customer base and market, McCann focused on expanding brand name awareness and instilling a sense of trust and convenience.
McCann's strategy for growth includes an effective combination of birthing new businesses and making
acquisitions of businesses and brands that resonate with customers as great sources for exceptional gifts. One such new business is the BloomNet® wire service which provides retail florists with diverse resources such as website hosting, a comprehensive technology platform for retail store management and the industry's first and only online digital floral directory. On the acquisition front, McCann has expanded his company's gift offerings, and become a leading player in the Gourmet Food and Gift Baskets business, by acquiring such iconic brands as: Fannie May®, makers of gourmet chocolate and other confections; Cheryl&Co.®, creators of individually-wrapped fresh baked cookies, brownies and cakes; and The Popcorn Factory®, which offers gourmet popcorn and other snacks in exclusively designed collectible tins.
Keynote speaker Jim McCann attributes much of his success to the lessons he learned in his first career, in the social services.
At St. John's Home for Boys in Rockaway, New York, McCann recalls, he helped underprivileged youths learn how to overcome the many challenges of their environment. His experiences greatly influenced his management style and prepared him to lead 1-800-FLOWERS.COM toward becoming one of the world's most successful multi-channel retailers.

Organizing committee
The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG), a not-for-profit organization, is the international governing body for gymnastics. It is the longest-standing international sport federation (est. 1881) and has been part of every Olympic Games since the inception of the modern Games in 1896.
The FIG federates 142 national gymnastics organizations and is run by a 30-person staff at its international headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland.
The FIG governs seven gymnastics disciplines: gymnastics for all, men's artistic, women's artistic, rhythmic, trampoline, aerobic and acrobatic gymnastics.
The Artistic Gymnastics World Championships were first held in 1903 in Antwerp, Belgium, the FIG founder's hometown. The most recent Championships took place in Glasgow, Scotland in 2015.
The 2017 AGWC Organizing Committee (2017 AGWCOC)
The FIG awarded the 47th Artistic Gymnastics World Championships to Montreal (CAN) in February 2015 following a successful site visit. Gymnastics Canada and Gymnastique Québec created a local Organizing Committee (2017 AGWCOC) to plan and deliver the event.
Hosting the event in Montreal will require 500 volunteers, including 100 members of the Organizing Committee, as well as 20 staff.
The 2017 AGWCOC is made up of a political and an operational structure.
Political structure:
- Board of Directors
- Governors Committee
- Risk Management and Finance Committee
- Legacy Committee
Richard Crépin is the President of the 2017 AGWC.
Operational structure:
- Senior management and five divisions supported by a team of staff and volunteers (Finance, Administration & Human resources, Marketing & Communications, Competitions, Hosting & Protocol)
- An Operations Committee consisting of the CEO and Division Directors
Jean-Paul Caron is the CEO of the 2017 AGWC.

The event took place at the Radisson Hotel JFK in Jamaica, New York. You might think that because this was a martial arts awards ceremony that it strictly paid tribute to the best competitors in a particular competition. However, while there were martial arts training seminars prior to the awards banquet this past weekend, Kuroshi Kai Kan's Recognition Awards actually celebrates individuals that participate in activities that improve the lives of those within their communities.
Some of Kuroshi Kai Kan's community programs include clothing & canned food drives, an Ambassador Fund that donates goods to assist families abroad, and the Boys to Men Affair, which helps young men learn how to deal with life's many challenges.
This year's Honorees included Grandmaster Eddie Lamar, Grandmaster Bahiy Muhammad, Shihan Errol Bennett, Sensei Eric Coleman, Sensei Paul Sequence Ferguson and Shihan Luis Aviles. The event also recognized many others, including the late O'Sensei Ronald Duncan and Sister Betty Powell, who has been described as "a fighter for just causes." The night also included a stand-up comedy performance and a demonstration by two young students, who showcased kata and a display of the bo staff.
The lineage of the members of Kuroshi Kai Kan date back to legends in competition martial arts, including Dr. Moses Powell, Professor Florendo M. Visitacion, a.k.a. Professor Vee, Soke Little John Davis, and others. Yet, while it is an organization steeped in tradition, it acknowledges a changing world, one filled with communities that need to search from within to grow and move forward.
I think the slogan on the Kuroshi Kai Kan banner at the event - "Martial Arts Evolution" - is appropriate. The evolution of modern American martial arts traces back to men who interacted with world cultures in such environments as the military, bringing their knowledge back to their communities and - finding a lack of opportunities - put their knowledge to work by founding schools in major cities throughout the U.S. Additionally, during the Second Great Migration, African Americans ventured from Southern states into Northern, Mid-Western and Western states for work, where failing city services left harsh, sometimes dangerous conditions that forced people to search for ways to protect and defend themselves. They were met by new immigrants from Asia, who themselves were immigrating into the same large cities. Later, film imports from Asia exposed then-exotic forms of fighting that inspired inner city dwellers to mimic what they witnessed on-screen. And now the martial arts seems to be evolving yet again and Kuroshi Kai Kan focuses on traditional ideals of honor, community and brotherhood, with an understanding of the many life goals that the martial arts can help an individual to acheive. Today's traditional martial arts schools continue to instill a value system, along with training, and the men and women I had the pleasure of meeting Saturday are a fine example of the results.

Combining Acupuncture treatment with Mindfulness meditation
Combining Acupuncture treatment with Mindfulness Meditation is the single most effective way to treat most of the modern day stress related illnesses and conditions. This treatment harmonises the bodies energies to the mind energies, allowing a complete healing.
The accumulative energetic effect is not the simple addition of two approaches, but a squaring or tripling of the effectiveness of the treatment. One multiplies the effect of the other.
The results are simply amazing.
The patient has a 'usual' treatment of Five Element Acupuncture yet whilst the needles are in place we practice mindfulness.
This can be one of many of the mindfulness practices:
I prefer to start with the 'Counting the Breath' meditation www.calm-mind.co.uk.
In the Counting the Breath Meditation I lead the patient through the practice of focusing their mind on their breath, the in-breath then the out-breath whilst counting the breath.
Breathing in 1-------Breathing out 1: Breathing in 2--------Breathing out 2: and so on up to 9 and then back to 1
Why should I do this? What possible therapeutic effect would this have.
In my 28yrs of experience of treating with acupuncture I have come to realise that 98% of all conditions presented ultimately are derived from the conscious and unconscious perception of the patient.
That is not to say that the presenting condition does not exist…of course it does…. But the question we have to ask is "where did it come from in the first place?…what was and maybe is the causative factor driving the imbalance which has resulted in the presenting condition?" And once this is identified how can we reduce, reverse and optimise this situation?
Mindfulness answers this fundamental question.
Many physical imbalances in the body are a direct result of chronic long term, unnecessary and excessive stimulation of the endocrinal / hormonal symptoms.
Where do these hormonal secretions come from?
A simple glance at how the brain works and the interactivity between generalised areas of the brain, namely, the Pre-frontal cortex, and the limbic system including the Hippocampus and the Amygdala answers the question admirably.
When you think about the past and the future and then make a judgment call, you stimulate the release of the appropriate hormone into the blood flow to activate the desired effect. Be it hunger, fear, cold, happiness, or any of the multitude of emotional responses and activations which we have.
These responses are perfectly natural and appropriate for the wellbeing and the smooth flow of the life cycle of the body.
So Where is the Problem?
Excessive rumination. We are thinking and making judgments far more often than before. We are all more educated and have more expectations than ever. Not to forget the overload of incessant information coming into our brain from the medias and internets. It is considered that if you rea a Sunday paper from cover to cover that you will take in more information in that one reading than your ancestors in the 15 Century did in the whole year, our minds are literally in hyper drive.
Your mind and body were designed to function gently together in the 'real' world. Where the threats and dangers were real. Today most threats and dangers are thought based intellectual projections and 'hanging onto' past experiences. They are not real life threatening situations like tigers or charging woolly mammoths, but instead they a thought constructed 'paper conceptual tigers'.
The seat of the emotions, the Limbic area of the brain, can not and does not have any filter system to discern the information created in the Frontal Neo Cortex it can not tell between between a thought tiger and a real tiger. (That is why TV and movies work so well!) the body and its reactions can not differentiate between the two. Meaning that the thought of a problem/ threat is as much a catalyst to create a hormonal release into the body mind system as a 'real' actual threat.
And as we are becoming more intellectual, using the prefrontal cortex more than ever before we are swamping ourselves with virtual, make believe threats which turn into an internal hyperactive hormonal soup coursing through the body most of the time. The result is that the body is in an almost constant state of critical alert and hypertension. All this through thinking too much about what might happen and what happened in the past!
If this happened occasionally then we could cope but consider your age then deduct your early childhood (7 yrs) and time in that becomes the years which you have been living with the red danger light on… no wonder the NHS is overwhelmed with all these illnesses, the body can no longer cope with the stress
The Solution
To learn to truly relax, both the mind and the body.
First we have to bring the mind back to the present moment, 100%, and not using your judgmental ability to assess or evaluate the situation. Do this by learning to just focus on the five senses.
What you can hear
What you can feel
What you can see
What you can touch
What you can taste
When you do this through resting your cognitive and conscious focus into and onto what is actually happening in and around you at this moment in time.
The tool for focusing on the present
I use the 'Focusing your mind on the Breath' as my tool of preference. Why? Well the breath is always available, and is always in the present moment. When I focus on my in-breath with 100% attention… then I am in the present moment. When I focus on my out-breath with 100% attention … then I am in the present moment. When I am in the present moment then I am not thinking about the past or the future, as I am focused and thinking about the present moment, when this is happening then I am not catalysing a hormonal cascade through out the body. The mid brain, the Limbic system takes a break from the fear, anxiety and worry created from the thoughts generated in your pre-frontal cortex.
Aaahhh…………. I then can truly relax and rebalance. Mind and body.
When I truly relax and rebalance I make more space. More space in my mind more, space in my body.
With the more space the tension drops away and I relax, the body allows the chi/ energy, the blood the vitality to permeate through out the body healing and revitalising those parts which need natural and caring attention.
We begin the journey back to full health and wellbeing.
The journey is not fast, not easy and not free. The price you need to pay is that of time , effort and practice.
Mindfulness is a skill and a skill takes time to learn and perfect.Times of stress and ill health can be seen as a positive opportunity to reassess our lives, a call to inner growth and change and the need to find ways to go beyond the bounds of old, worn out familiar patterns and habits that prevent us from being well and happy.
Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way;
On purpose, In the present moment,
and non - judgmentally.
(Jon Kabat-Zinn)
The body mind connection
We all respond or react to stress differently. What may seem an enjoyable challenge for one person, can be deeply distressing for another. We all have different resources in strength, character, physiology and perception and in order to deal with stress and the challenges that life presents, we try to find ways to adapt.
Often we react to a stressful situation in a habitual or emotional way that can be damaging to our health, such as fear, anger or blame, or avoidance through food or drugs. Mindfulness helps us to see the 'bigger picture' and empowers us to respond in ways that are kinder to ourselves and others and better for our health.
Mindfulness helps you to calm the mind and clear away inner tension.
When you view life from a less tense and more spacious perspective, you are able to respond to the challenges and stresses encountered, in a way that is healthier, rather than reacting with fear and emotional and physical strain.
Developing a stress free life
Avoiding stressful events is not always possible, but by learning the tools to change the way that you react to stress is much more effective. With most causes of symptoms of stress it is not the problem necessarily that needs fixing, more importantly it is your reaction to stress and how that makes you feel.
Mindfulness helps to bring
- Less judgment and more kindness to ourselves and others
- Self acceptance and self worth
- Calmness and increased clarity and mental focus
- Relief from stress and anxiety
- Increased energy and vitality
Mindfulness helps to focus the mind, body and helps you to see more clearly, what arises such as thoughts, emotions, mental or physical sensations
Being present in each moment and observing naturally what ever arises without feeling that it has to be fixed in some way, without judgment, aversion or attachment helps you to trust and accept more fully, each moment with increased self acceptance and kindness, opening a new perspective when faced with a stressful situation.
Mindfulness supports health.
The overall effect of mindfulness is supportive to the effect of acupuncture treatment, also for the body/mind continuum to create and maintain a stable level of balanced health. The mind relaxes, tension dissolves and the body relaxes, this allows the Qi (subtle energy) to flow more freely. The circulation and flow of vital energy throughout the body aids the natural transformation processes and functions within the body bringing increased balance and homeostasis and promotes a renewed sense of well-being and relaxation.
Acupuncture and mindfulness help to restore balance naturally and supports your personal path to better health and happiness.

House Speaker Paul Ryan reveals that he will support presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump for president, although he cited differences with the controversial New Yorker's policy proposals.
"I feel confident he would help us turn the ideas in this agenda into laws to help improve people's lives," Ryan said in an op-ed in his hometown paper. "That's why I'll be voting for him this fall."
Ryan released his op-ed right before Clinton took the stage for her foreign policy speech in which she condemned Trump's credentials on national security.
The essay focused primarily on the House Republican agenda, arguing that he had a lot planned for a government led by a Republican president.
Ryan admitted that although he was uncertain about supporting Trump, meeting him in person to discuss policy made him more comfortable about the decision. Ryan added that the House Republican vision would be "a positive, optimistic vision for a more confident America."
"It's no secret that he and I have our differences," he said. "I won't pretend otherwise. And when I feel the need to, I'll continue to speak my mind. But the reality is, on the issues that make up our agenda, we have more common ground than disagreement."
Ryan also took a stand against Hillary Clinton.
"A Clinton White House would mean four more years of liberal cronyism and a government more out for itself than the people it serves," she said. "Quite simply, she represents all that our agenda aims to fix."

Lee Jasper, the race advisor to London mayor Ken Livingstone, was today suspended following allegations made by the London Evening Standard.
Livingstone has released a statement calling for a police investigation, which he said would allow both him and his advisor to clear their names.
He said Jasper had been subject to 'trial by media'and said the Standard's investigation – a series of stories by reporter Andrew Gilligan stretching back to December – was a 'shameful campaign'against him.
'The Evening Standard should immediately take any evidence it claims to have to the police or stop making these false allegations – in the good old phrase, put up or shut up,'Livingstone said.
'I have made the extremely difficult decision that like any GLA officer subject to a police investigation, Lee Jasper will be suspended pending the outcome of the police investigation.
'As the interests of London are best served by putting an end to this malignant political charade I have concluded that a full police investigation is the most authoritative way to end this story once and for all.'
Police are investigating financial irregularities surrounding payments to six charities and business from the London Development Agency. In January Metropolitan Police officers raided the offices of the South London Green Badge Taxi School, which the Standard alleged was run by associates of Jasper. It has received £351,000 in funding.
Jasper said that there was a 'deliberate attempt'to divert attention from the London mayoral election in May.
He said: 'This is being done deliberately and consciously – far from seeking clarity, the Evening Standard for 10 weeks has been running stories of false allegations against me without taking alleged 'evidence' to the police."

Does this franchise really sell? Why do they keep making it?
Some of them are incredibly obscure, and only available in parts of Europe. All of the GBA entries were that way.
Who is chocoto?
So.. is this that Mario Kart killer everyone's been talking about?
In fact I heard some talk about this being not that bad. It has stolen 95% of Mario Kart but it seems to be no shovelware.
Still I do not care about this title.
This game isn't all too bad according to this ign review http://wii.ign.com/articles/886/886153p1.html
I might give it a try
I guess it is ok but after you've played Mario Kart Wii you have to wonder why Cocoto team bothered... do you think the people who made this actually played Mario Kart Wii but still thought nah, our Cocoto Kart is soooo much better!?!? (And yes, I know they probably started making this before Mario Kart Wii came out but surely they had to know Mario Kart vs Cocoto Kart... hmmm... I wonder which the consumer is likely to buy!)

With my husband off in So. Cal. for work, leaving me alone with two kids for the first time for a week, I consoled myself this afternoon with a little retail therapy...
Several months ago I saw this book, what shall we do today? 60 creative crafting projects for kids at Lowe's. Every time I am there I look for it. So today, when I went there to buy colorful electrical tape and marigold seeds for two other projects, I finally decided to buy it. After all, I need something MORE for Griffin to do while Daddy's gone...
But right next to it was Amanda Soule's HANDMADE HOME Simple Ways to Repurpose Old Materials into New Family Treasures. I LOVE her blog SouleMama.com, and got her first book, THE CREATIVE FAMILY as soon as it came out a couple years ago. She just has so many fun creative ideas for crafting with your kids, and including your kids in the creative activities you enjoy!
So of course I bought them both. And then there was another filled with creative nature & garden projects intended for Grandparents to do with their Grandchildren. I justified that one as a possible gift for my Dad (once I'm done with it). But can't remember the name as I lent it to my neighbor who has helped me with the kids so much this week.
Like I need more ideas for new projects... On a recent questionaire when asked if I collect anything I answered, among other things, "yarn & craft supplies, books about yarn & craft supplies, baskets & boxes to hold yarn and craft supplies." The last two were added by my husband, but clearly I have a problem, and far more books than I'll ever read. But I LOVE having a craftroom so well stocked that when Griffin wanted to make this felted family nest we saw at Beneath The Rowan Tree last week, and paint with fruits, vegetables and even cars, I had everything we needed on hand!
Maybe tomorrow I'll figure out how to get the pictures of Griffin's recent projects off my phone to post them. But I have decided not to let my difficulty getting photos onto my new laptop keep me from blogging anymore. Now I hope to have a quiet few moments to peruse my new books and enjoy a rootbeer float, before baby Willow wakes up for her next round of nursing.

Even though the bulk of our experience has been with fly fishing, we have many guests that fish rod and reel. Those who fish rod and reel can enjoy fishing from the banks or fishing from a boat, our rentals or from their own. They run the gamut from armchair bank fishing with bait to technical ultralight spinning tackle using state-of-the-art artificials.
We highly value these customers, and even though we're not top class rod and reel fishermen ourselves, our knowledge of the rivers and the area can be of great help.
Standard spinning tackle is the norm here: 5' to 8' rods, standard or ultralight reels spooled with 4 or 6 lb line, and lures from small Mepps, Cleos and Panther Martins to Countdown Rapalas will get the job done most days. The simplest bait fishing solution is usually Powerbait. The secret for most folks is to go smaller and lighter. In other words, lighter lines, lighter weights, and smaller lures. The tackle that a lot of folks bring has been set up for bass and needs to be scaled down for trout. Even though we don't keep a lot of spinning tackle at the Lodge, we can help with the rigging and tell you where you can pick up what you need. We also have no problem whatsoever with independent guides picking people up at our Lodge.
So no matter what you fish with, you're certainly always welcome at Fulton's Lodge, and we'll help you any way we can.

According to this week's responses, the standouts from episode 9 were certainly Dawn and Malcolm, but Andrea, Eddie, Sherri, Cochran and even invisible, serene Brenda had stand out moments. No one is buying that Dawn will end up taking herself out, but we all expect some fireworks in the next episode and hopefully, another blindside.
For each episode, we provide 3 podcasts: an episode recap, an interview with the castoff, and a chance for Survivor fans like yourself to sound off on what you saw and how you think the castaways are fairing in the game. Fifteen fans shared their thoughts on episode 9 and predictions for what we'll see next.

Years ago I was cutting squares for a quilt. I exclaimed happily how it would look so great when I finished and then I caught my sister laughing. "What's so funny?"
"You're not going to finish it."
"Yes, I am!"
"No, you're not. You never finish anything."
"I am this time!"
"I'll believe it when it happens," she snorted.
I got so angry about it that I didn't ever pick up those cut squares again. Really, I showed her!
I'm still afflicted by the same un-finishing I ever have been. Just when I think I have a project in hand I OH LOOK SOMETHING SHINY OVER THERE.
It drives my loved ones crazy. It would drive me crazy too if I remembered I was supposed to finish something or other.
I made a promise to Other Half: every day this week I am going to tackle one project, one abandoned area, one neglected space and fix it. I think it will help if I share with you exactly what I'm fixing and organizing (public humiliation at a task unfinished helps, right?) I'm going to try really hard to LOOK IT'S SHINY finish something I started. I can do this.
The vintage sewing table!
- The vintage sewing table that I was going to turn into a bathroom sit-down vanity way back when I got it thrifting in the first week of December.
- The orange table has been in my family room for so long, poised to make it up the stairs after what would surely be a quick makeover, that I think I've started decorating around it. Maybe I don't want to move it! Maybe it should stay! Maybe I should stick with the original plan.
- Gift bag that we used to carry presents home from La Professora's house on Christmas Day. Still contains presents.
- Wrapping paper, yes, from Christmas Eve.
- The camera box from my new camera that I can't use because I don't have a memory card for it yet.
- The instructions for the camera that Other Half unfolded when I called in a panic from Costco to make sure I was buying the right memory card. Still have no idea if we have the right kind.
- Someone's PJs are on the floor.
- Someone's sweater and jeans on the floor.
- Baby wipes.
- Outgrown baby church shoes.
- Oh, and there's still a sewing machine inside the table that needs to be removed and the surroundings cleaned off.

"We have won, and now we have to start working to implement our program and unify the country," Romano Prodi told Italians after the official count confirmed from that country's national elections confirmed exit polls showing Prodi's center-left coalition had deposed the government of Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who had allied Italy with George W. Bush's foreign policies.
With his Olive Tree coalition of moderate Christian Democrats, liberals, Greens, Socialists, former Communists and Communists on track to gain solid control of the lower of the two houses of the Italian Parliament, the Chamber of Deputies, and a narrow majority in the upper house, the Senate, Prodi says he is positioned to begin to implement an ambitious agenda. If all goes as planned, one of the new prime minister's first moves will be to pull Italy's contingent of 2,600 troops out of Iraq.
That will deprive the Bush administration's "coalition of the willing" occupation force in Iraq of its fourth largest contingent.
The Italian withdrawal will be the latest blow to the administration spin that suggests the occupation is a multinational initiative. A score of countries have withdrawn their troops or are in the process of doing so. Many of the exits were hastened by elections that — as in Italy this week — saw voters chose political leaders and parties that promised to quit the coalition.
With Italy out, only three countries — the U.S., Great Britain and South Korea — will have more than 1,000 troops on the ground in Iraq.
The Italian exit is expected to come quickly.
Prodi's coalition promised during the campaign to implement an immediate withdrawal and, in nationally-televised debate last week he spelled out how it will work. "When we go to the government we'll decide for a speedy pullout of the troops, in secure conditions, talking with the Iraqi authorities," said Prodi, who explained that his priority would be to implement the exit strategy "as soon as possible."
Prodi could have a hard time implementing much of his program, as the close divide in the Senate and his own unwieldy coalition are likely to make governing difficult. But the process of getting Italian troops home will be eased by the fact that many member of Berlusconi's coalition also favor withdrawal. Indeed, in an attempt to diffuse the war issue during the recent campaign, Berlusconi, himself, had suggested that he would try to get Italian troops out of Iraq by the end of the year.

"We've got Anna Chlumsky, who is overdue in many people's eyes and Kate McKinnon, the big name of the group that won last year, and Judith Light, who never won for 'Who's the Boss?'" Gold Derby senior editor Rob Licuria summarizes during our recent webcam chat (watch above) about the Best Comedy Supporting Actress Emmy race. Joining Licuria to analyze this race in detail are Gold Derby contributing writers Charles Bright, Riley Chow, Zach Laws, Tony Ruiz and Amanda Spears. The nominees in this category are:
Vanessa Bayer, "Saturday Night Live" – "Host: Dwayne Johnson"
Anna Chlumsky, "Veep" – "Groundbreaking"
Kathryn Hahn, "Transparent" – "Life Sucks and Then You Die"
Leslie Jones, "Saturday Night Live" – "Host: Tom Hanks"
Judith Light, "Transparent" – "Exciting and New"
Kate McKinnon, "Saturday Night Live" – "Host: Dave Chappelle"
SEE 2017 Emmy nominations list: All the nominees
"That finale for Judith Light is so spectacular," Ruiz declares. "She's funny, touching, she gets into it with her family, and then it's capped by this performance piece where she does a cabaret version of Alanis Morissette's 'Hand in my Pocket' and it seems odd at first and then she sells it completely."
"Under the tape system, this is one scenario that would have helped the 'SNL' players," Spears argues. "But I am going for my favorite kid star ever in my favorite kid movie, Anna Chlumsky, for not just the most well-adjusted child star, she is going to be an Emmy winner because if she can't win under this, it's never going to happen."
"Kate McKinnon as the winner last year should be the automatic frontrunner," Laws argues. "But she wasn't competing with anyone from the show last year. Now she's got Leslie Jones and Vanessa Bayer." "I have Kate McKinnon winning, but I love that it's so tough," Bright says. "Leslie Jones is blowing up right now. She's really establishing herself … she is just rockin' it." Chow is also backing McKinnon, arguing that "'Saturday Night Live' has 22 other nominations this year, so it seems like it is bigger than ever."
