When I got an email the other day from a former colleague of mine, I knew he had to be up to something worthy of my attention, as we hadn't really spoken since we parted ways. He was writing to tell me about a new project he was working on with some friends called WAX. It's a new bi-annual print magazine that will explore the intersection of surfing, art and culture around NYC. The idea came about when graphic designers David Yun and Zak Klauck, and writer Aerial Brown noticed a huge hole in publications that speak to the unique community of surfers found in NYC and other urban environments (yes you CAN surf outside of California and Hawaii!). So of course I took a big interest being a designer, surfer, and magazine addict myself and I've already backed them on Kickstarter. Sound cool to you too? Well go support them! The first issue of WAX is expected to drop sometime in May.

Sci-fi movies are always fun to follow, although we are often made logical thinking because the story and background of the story depart from logical science, sci-fi movies sometimes make us realize that physics or chemistry was evident when developed like this, the impact of this, can be for this and so on, but in fact many factors that make the object created in the film is not possible to be made in the real world, although logic and reason can be realized. Visit our bioskop online to watch this kind of movie.
The most commonly used sci-fi of the whole story is about the future, about time machines, or even a movie about zombies, but there is also a simple fictional story like robots that have human-like capabilities and feelings that take control of life human.
Why do you guys have to watch sci-fi movies?
– Train the logic of thinking
– Adding knowledge
– Opening the mind that something might be made, or something might happen when knowledge is used this way if mathematics is used so.

The Von Meijenfeldt family live in the Netherlands and Canada. There are more than 100 members, divided over three branches (De Haas, De Koe and Augustijn). In spite of the small size of the family, the name is rather renowned in the country. A clarification for this could be the apparent foreign nobility and a variety of articles about a few members of the family on the front pages of national newspapers. Less than 100 members of the family Von Meijenfeldt have lived and died in the Netherlands. The first ancestor, Johan August, arrived in Amsterdam 1 May 1793 . He was born around 1760 in the vicinity of the old Hanseatic harbour city of Stralsund in Swedish-Pomerania on the Baltic Sea.
There is a lot of circumstantial evidence that Johan August was a natural son of the Swedish Count Johan August von Meijerfeldt (1725-1800), Field Marshal in the Swedish-Russian War 1788-1790. Names, places, dates and drawings in Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands show so many similarities that one can negate coincidence. Before his wedding to the Finnish Countess Lovisa Augusta von Sparre (1745-1817) in 1763 the Count took part in the Austrian Succession Wars. He first went into the Emperor's military service in Silesia, the Netherlands and Hannover. Afterwards he was needed in Swedish service in Pomerania, where he spent the long cold winters on his Nehringen Estate. The noble Meijerfeldt family joined life at the Royal Court in Stockholm in full French style. Two sons were born and subsequently died from shot wounds (Johan August 1766-1791) and meningitis (Axel Fredrik 1769-1795).
The father of the field marshal was (also called) Johan August von Meijerfeldt (1664-1749). He was governor-general of Swedish-Pomerania after he married Brita Barnekow in 1717. He acquired and renovated the Nehringen Estate, especially the St. Andreas Church. His son built the new manor house around 1880. The church was saved from demolition by the vicar during communist times. Finally the Lords 'loge' inside the church has been inaugurated. The governor-general acquired the Nehringen Estate and became count because of his brave and loyal adventures with King Charles XII in Livonia, Poland, Saxonia and Ukraine between 1700 and 1715. Earlier in 1694 he had been contracted by the Dutch Republic Province of Zeeland under the combined forces of William of Orange, the English King and Dutch Prince.
Twenty years prior to this (1674) Anders Meijer – the father of Johan August von Meijerfeldt – was raised in Swedish nobility adding "feldt" to the name. The main motivation was that he was able to smuggle out a description of the Danish Glückstadt fortress in which he was captured, together with a plan on how to conquer it. Anders became Inspector-General over de Livonian domains of Oberpahlen. There are several sources about his background, of which Belgard (in Brandenburg) and Livonia play a prominent role. The sources with regard to Livonia go back to 1510, when Johan Meijer was the master of the German Order's fortress of Riga.
Many people with a similarly sounding family name used to live in Europe but were not related. Several Swiss, Austrian and German noble families from Konstanz, Maienfeld and Rösebeck have died out. Many Jewish namesakes emigrated from Hessia to the United States between 1850 and 1920 after they adopted the name of their employer or created an own concoction of their first name Meijer, forced on them by Napoleontic rules.

TOKYO, Japan --Japanese scientists have introduced what they say is the world's first robot to express emotions with its face and body.The robot is named Kobian, and it is the result of a two-year project at Tokyo's Waseda University.
- Video: Scientists create robot with emotions

Kobian has 48 "actuators" which allow it to express a range of emotions, including happiness, fear, surprise, sadness and disgust, by opening and closing its eyes, moving its lips and eyebrows and gesturing with its arms and legs.
Of course, being a robot, Kobian is only able to express pre-programmed emotional responses.
The head of the research team that designed the robot hopes it could someday be used to help the elderly with household chores and in nursing homes. For now, it is still at the prototype stage of development.

text: Hi guys, I'm relatively new to SEO, and this site is an absolute bloody goldmine of info! I've got a quick question and I'd be really greatful for any feedback. I've recently been trying out methods of automating my link-building for micro-niche sites. I've had some success (a few top 3 rankings) through manual link building but it's just so tedious. Is it better to focus on niche-related domains for building tier 1 pages, or does it not make any worthwhile difference? So for example, let's say my site was about "Travel," is it going to benefit me more if I publish a blog (as part of a diverse collection of properties) on "Travelblog" rather than a travel-related article on a Squidoo lens? Or can backlinks be just as powerful from generic domains as long as the content is contextual? I'd be so grateful for any help on this. Thanks, Dan. P.S. I'm talking about this in the context of big link-building tools like SeNUKE and Article Demon.

Intercambio and Special Events
For over 40 years, Centro has created a welcoming, inclusive community through programs and events that foster language and cultural exchange. Here are just a few activities that you can join. Bring your friends and family too!
If you are learning English or Spanish and want to practice your new skills with native speakers, we have the class for you. Our intercambio is a unique, weekly, informal get-together of native Spanish and English speakers, focused on strengthening conversation skills. The program is attended by current students and a loyal base of language lovers looking for additional practice. Centro facilitators pair students, suggest discussion topics and lead games. Coffee, tea, and snacks add to a fun evening. Intercambio is held every Wednesday evening from 6:30 to 9:00pm. The first session this fall begins Wednesday September 26.
At the end of every semester we joyfully celebrate the dedication and accomplishments of our students and volunteers with a fiesta and book fair. We bring food from our native cultures to share, we play games, raffle prizes, dance and enjoy the company of our friends and colleagues. Friends and family are welcome. Save the date for our Fall-Winter Fiesta: Friday December14!
Sunday Food and Flyers
Several times a year we meet for brunch in a different New York City neighborhood to sample its national specialities and then distribute flyers to publicize Centro's programs.EMAIL US AT firstname.lastname@example.com to indicate your interest in taking a class, becoming a volunteer, or joining our mailing list ... or to ask any questions. A CentroNYC volunteer will respond promptly.
Classes will also be announced on Centro's Meetup page.
Why I volunteer
I love volunteering with Centro because it?s a unique community that could only exist in NYC, and it?s an embodiment of the diversity of our city. I originally signed up for a class to keep up my Spanish, but unexpectedly found myself in a network of interesting people from all around the world who decided, like me, to call NYC home. As a volunteer, I'm happy to help sustain Centro?s legacy of cultural exchange and supporting immigrants and recent arrivals to our city.

The Sean Healy ponzi scheme crossed so many state lines that postal inspectors had to get involved in the prosecution. He started out in New York, lived and spent in Weston, and funneled money from Pennsylvania. But Healy has finally been sent to a federal prison to serve his 188 months, and it adds a whole new dimension: He'll serve at Federal Correctional Institution - La Tuna, just outside of El Paso... Texas.

Buck and Blegen Awards
Two annual awards recognize originality, excellence, and creativity in article research and writing. Each bestows a cash prize of $600. Two judges and the editor of Minnesota History select the winners.
- The Solon J. Buck Award, named for the magazine's first editor (1915-31) and, later, United States Archivist, is awarded to the best article of the year.
- The Theodore C. Blegen Award, named for the Minnesota Historical Society's superintendent (1931-39), is given to the best article written by an MHS staff member (not eligible for the Buck Award).
History Day Award
Every year, the national History Day program picks a theme for students to investigate in various media. Minnesota History gives its History Day Award to the best senior-level paper devoted to a topic in the state's history. This award includes a $50 prize.
2016 Winners
- Solon J. Buck Award: The award for the best article published in 2016 goes to Joshua Preston for his article, "Senator Allan Spear and the Minnesota Human Rights Amendment," which appeared in the Fall 2016 issue.Preston tells the story of Senator Spear's two-decades-long fight to amend the Minnesota Human Rights Act to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation, a goal achieved in 1993. Spear died before he could include this story in his unfinished 2010 biography. The judges cited the achievement of the author marshalling a variety of new sources to bring this important story of marginalized and misrepresented voices to the fore. They noted the contemporary relevance of this social justice struggle from a quarter-century ago and were impressed with how Preston told the story of a "bold man and a bold movement" without over-heroizing his subject. Preston, a graduate of the University of Minnesota at Morris, is currently a JD/MA candidate at the University of Minnesota Law School and a 2017 MNHS Legacy Research Fellow.
- Theodore C. Blegen Award: No award given
- History Day Award: Isabella Krueger, freshman at Salk Middle School in Elk River, for "Dr. Jane E. Hodgson's Stand for Reproductive Rights in Minnesota." Addressing the History Day theme, "Taking a Stand in History," Isabella examined Hodgson's activist medical career, including the gynecologist's legal test of Minnesota abortion law in Minnesota v. Hodgson, t he first challenge to a century-old law. The case reached the U.S. Supreme Court.
2015 Winners
- Solon J. Buck Award: The award for the best article published in 2015 goes to Susan Bartlett Foote for her article, "Finding Engla Schey: Catalyst for Mental Hospital Reform in Minnesota," which appeared in the Summer 2015 issue. Foote is professor emerita of public health at the University of Minnesota.
- Theodore C. Blegen Award: The 2015 prize for the best article by a Minnesota Historical Society staff member goes to David Mather for "Grand Mound and the Muskrat: A Model of Ancient Cosmology on the Rainy River," published in the Spring 2015 issue. Mather is the National Register archaeologist in the Society's Heritage Preservation office.
- History Day Award: Madison Anderson, sophomore at Cretin Derham Hall High School, St. Paul, for "Jenson v. Eveleth: Encountering Sexual Harassment and Exploring Women's Rights in the Workplace."
2011 Winners
- Solon J. Buck Award: The award for the best article published in Minnesota History during 2011 has been won by co-authors Tom Beer and Tom O'Connell for "Father Francis Gilligan and the Struggle for Civil Rights," which was published in the Summer issue. Born in Massachusetts and trained to be a priest and professor of moral theology, Gilligan was released from his home diocese to teach at St. Paul Seminary after earning his doctoral degree in 1928. In St. Paul, he combined his teaching career with a personal mission to combat discrimination. His work merged Catholic social-justice teachings and sociological approaches to address the inequities embedded in the state's social and economic cultural environment. The authors used a wide array of print and manuscript sources to show how Father Gilligan skillfully built a coalition of labor, business, religious, civil rights, and government workers to effect real social change long before the activist 1960s. Co-author O'Connell is a professor of political studies at Metropolitan State University, St. Paul; co-author Beer is a former community organizer and union business agent, lobbyist, and political director.
- Theodore C. Blegen Award: The award for the best Minnesota History article in 2011 by a Minnesota Historical Society staff member goes to Christopher G. Welter, whose "How Jesse James Nearly Robbed Northfield . . . in 1948" appeared in the Winter issue. Welter's interest was piqued when, in his job as collections assistant (he is now archivist at the Minnesota Discovery Center in Chisholm), he was digitizing letters to the warden of Stillwater State Prison. Among them were inquires about incarcerated James Gang member Cole Younger, sent by Frank Dalton, a Civil War comrade of Jesse James. Working outward from these letters, Welter mined local and national records to trace two strands in this tale: Dalton's attempt to pass himself off as the infamous outlaw (long–and correctly–believed to be dead); and how that masquerade affected Minnesota. Northfield, about to launch its first-ever Jesse James Day celebration, invited the old outlaw (whoever he was) to be the parade's honorary grand marshal. Welter's article details the resulting controversy: Hoax or not, should a murderer be featured in a town parade?
2010 Winners
- Solon J. Buck Award: The award for the best article published in Minnesota History during 2010 has been won by Brad Chisholm, professor of film history at St. Cloud State University. His article, "Okabena: A Bank Robbery Revisited" (Winter 2010/11), reopens the question of who really committed this bold, daylight crime. In 1933, a time when robberies were distressingly> frequent, the heist in this small southwestern Minnesota town was quickly blamed on a set of petty criminals believed to be responsible for many robberies in the area. The article meticulously uncovers and then examines evidence–including proof of police corruption and previously missed information–to determine whether the perpetrators were, indeed, the two men and a woman who served time, all the while protesting innocence, or the infamous Barrow Gang led by Bonnie and Clyde.
- Theodore C. Blegen Award: The 2010 Theodore C. Blegen Award goes to Linda A. Cameron, program manager at the Minnesota State Capitol historic site, whose article, "Common Threads: The Minnesota Immigrant Experience," appeared in the Fall 2010 issue. Drawing on recent oral history interviews as well as nineteenth-century letters, the article shows that, while time marches on and conditions appear to change, Minnesota's recent Latino, Asian Indian, Hmong, Khmer, Tibetan, and Somali immigrants face many of the same challenges as their European predecessors.
- Mary Wingerd, professor of history at St. Cloud State University
- Christopher Welter, collections assistant at the Minnesota Historical Society
- Anne Kaplan, editor of Minnesota History
- History Day: Austin Gromatzky for "Southdale Regional Shopping Center: How One Man's Vision Fundamentally Changed the Culture of the United States."
2009 Winner
- Solon J. Buck Award: The award for the best article published in Minnesota History during 2009 has been won by Edward J. Pluth, professor emeritus of history at St. Cloud State University. His article, "A 'Negro Colony' for Todd County," (Fall 2009) begins with an "intriguing fragment"–a 1917 newspaper article recalling recent settler Timothy Ward's 1869 plan to colonize 700 black men and their families in the county. The article meticulously uncovers and then examines evidence to determine whether the plan was legitimate or a trumped-up accusation by political rivals. The result teaches much about historical research as well as the turbulent post-Civil War era in local, state, and national politics.
- Jennifer L. Pierce, professor of American studies at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities
- Matthew Anderson, collections curator at the Minnesota Historical Society
- Anne Kaplan, editor of Minnesota History
- History Day: Jack Schnettler for "Man of the Hour: How Hubert H. Humphrey Broke the Longest Filibuster in History and Passed the Landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964."
2008 Winner
- Solon J. Buck Award: The winning author is Colette Hyman for her article "Survival at Crow Creek, 1863–1866," which appeared in the Winter 2008 issue. Based on oral history as well as library and archival material, the article shows how Dakota women drew on all possible resources to sustain their families and community in bitter exile after the 1862 U.S.-Dakota War.
- Michael J. Lansing, assistant professor of history, director of the environmental studies program, and a participating member of the women's studies program at Augsburg College in Minneapolis
- Deborah L. Miller, a reference specialist at the Minnesota Historical Society.
- Anne Kaplan, editor of Minnesota History
- History Day: Sam Pritzker for "Road Rage: The Fight to End Interstate 335 in Minneapolis."
2007 Winners
- Solon J. Buck Award: The winner of the Solon J. Buck award for the best article of 2007 is Jane Lamm Carroll, an associate professor of history at the College of St. Catherine in St. Paul. Her essay, "This Higgledy-Piggledy Assembly: The McLeods, an Anglo-Dakota Family in Early Minnesota," appeared in the Summer issue of the magazine. Focusing on a Scots-Canadian fur trader, his young Anglo-Dakota wife, and the family they raised, the article examines the gradual but dramatic social, cultural, and economic shifts that by the 1860s had changed the world the family had known.
- Theodore C. Blegen Award: The 2007 Theodore C. Blegen Award goes to MHS senior exhibit developer Kate Roberts, whose article "Educated Food for Educated People: Richards Treat Cafeteria, 1924–1957" appeared in the Fall issue. Drawing on oral history, artifacts, published sources, and the voluminous manuscript records of this landmark Minneapolis eatery, the article shows how two home economics professors successfully put theory into practice, creating a long-lived institution and serving nutritious, homelike food while always keeping an eye on new trends, competition, and the bottom line.

- Danielle Dart, public programs associate for the History Center at the Minnesota Historical Society

Burma superstar is a must restaurant! Maybe you went in alameda though? And have you been to the SF Creamery in WC yet for ice cream? Yummmm...ReplyDelete
Love this Monica! If you ever need an ice cream buddy, I got your back! Also, if you try biking I would love to join. I love mountain biking but have yet to try road. 30 goals is amazing! Fun way to create our own adventures and progress. I did something similar last year where I just said yes to most anything I would normally say no to. Fun memories were made and I learned how brave or sissy I actually was. (Only thing I failed at was skydiving. I was strapped in and walked away.) -ElizaReplyDelete

Moved to Git yet?
Hi all friends, this post is describing steps to start using Git if you are an SVN user, a situation that I was in recently myself. I will be copying files over from SVN to Git repository but not migrating the repository history, this could be discussed in another post.
I will be using Bitbucket as my Git repository and SourceTree as my Git client.
Create your first Git repository in Bitbucket
Bitbucket is a Git repository service provided by Atlassian. Bitbucket provides several plans ranging from $10/month to $200/month, but the best thing about it is the free plan. The free plan offers the same features as the paid plans except for limiting the number of users to 5 users, which is 4 more than what is needed for personal projects.
STEP 1 – Sign Up to Bitbucket
Go to the URL: https://bitbucket.org/ and follow the process of signing up to the free service.
STEP 2 – Create your first Repository
Log in to the new account and in the main dashboard press the 'Create' button.
Choose a name for the new repository, the repository URL will be:
Choose the repository type to be 'Git'.
Prepare your Work Station
In my case I am using a PC with Microsoft Windows. The process should not be of much difference in case of Linux or Mac OS.
STEP 3 – Install Git
Download Git client at the following URL: http://git-scm.com/downloads
After installing, you can now use Git Bash shell to do pretty much everything you want with your source code repository and working copy. But for this tutorial we are all beginners here and I'd use some GUI to start up with experiencing Git.
STEP 4 – Installing SourceTree
SourceTree is a free graphical interface Git client that combines simplicity and power. Download and install Atlassian SourceTree at the following URL: http://sourcetreeapp.com/
Start Using Git
STEP 5 – Checkout Your Project
Open SourceTree and press the 'Clone/New' button at the top left corner. Enter the path for the project repository and where you like your local working folder to be. You will be asked for your BitBucket account credentials.
STEP 6 – Add Files to Working Folder
Copy your project files to the working folder you've created in the previous step. Ignore the hidden folders called '.svn' if found. For a huge project, you can do that by svn-exporting (and not checking out) the project trunk directly into the Git working folder.
As discussed in the beginning of the post, at the moment we are not concerned with transferring the project history from SVN to the new Git repository. This could be the topic of a following post, or you can refer to these Git tutorials.
STEP 7 – Add Files to Repository
Open SourceTree again and notice that it is now showing all the added files as 'Untracked' files which is indicated by the blue question mark icon beside each file.
- First step in order to add the files to the repository is to stage them. This is done in SourceTree by checking the checkbox beside all the untracked files.
- Then comes the commit step, in SVN committing change is copying the modified or added files to the main repository, this is not the case for Git. In Git committing changes is to record the changes to the local repository which is in this case our working folder. More on this in the discussion below. For now let's commit files waiting in staging. This is done by filling the commit message at the bottom of the screen and pressing the 'Commit' button.
- The last step is to push changes. This could be done either by pressing the 'Push' button at the tool buttons menu. Or you can check the checkbox at (2) to do two steps at one and push right away after committing.
STEP 8 – Modify Files and Commit Changes
Committing changes is very similar to what we discussed in step 7. After modifying a file, open SourceTree. The modified files will appear with a yellow icon beside them in the unstaged area. Check the files you want to commit to move them to the staging area. Next commit changes with an appropriate comment then push them to main repository.
Pulling Files
'Pull' is the action similar to the 'update' action of SVN. It updates the working folder with changes done by others and pushed earlier to the main repository.
How the concept of working directory differs between Git and SVN
One very different approaches using Git is that the concept of working copies is no longer applicable (although I've been using the term loosely throughout the post). What is Git is really doing is it considers all copies or the original repository, a repository by itself. This means your working copy is actually your own repository with all set of features by itself.
How the concept of commit differs between Git and SVN
Now we know how your local copy is a repository by itself, this describes the reason why a commit doesn't mean the changes are submitted to the original repository. A commit is actually committing changes to the local repository history. An additional step named 'push' is needed to transfer commits from local repository to the original repository. An opposite action called 'pull' is when you want to get changes done by other team members from original repository to your local clone.
In addition to the two commit-push steps, Git offers an addition step before you commit which is staging. Think of this as a step to group changes and get them ready for the actual commit. Staging is no altering the history of the repositories in any way. It is just a step for getting things organised before the actual commit.
More information about how to use Git could be found at these Git tutorials. It is using command line not SourceTree though.

Please don't buy anything from me ...
... at least not until you've sampled my free tools and resources!
Then, as I cover the basics, I'll let you know about other Wordskillz™ resources that may be of use to you.
Is there something specific you, or someone you're helping, should be working on?
Once we know where skill gaps lie, I'll let you know of other areas to explore, and other resources to access, some free, some not.
Speaking of additional resources ...
Spelling is the most basic skill. Once it's mastered, it will be time to hone the other word skills, like reading and writing.
I've prepared a simple, easy 5 day spelling course you can access here. This mini-course is like nothing else you've ever tried. You'll quickly learn the best way to learn words, and the best words to learn (that will help you learn even more words). If you want to help someone else become a better speller, there is a free coaching course as well.
Once you've completed either course, you'll have enough knowledge and experience to upgrade. At that point, I'll invite you to use the Wordskillz™ BASIC 30-Word Challenge©.
Once you're underway with the basic Challenge, you'll have enough knowledge and experience to upgrade. At that point, I'll invite you to use the Wordskillz™ ADVANCED Challenge for Spelling and Reading©.

Sleep Studies
Genesis SleepCare provides both in laboratory diagnostic polysomnographic (PSG) sleep studies at our comfortable sleep investigation units and at home sleep studies
In laboratory diagnostic sleep studies (PSG)
Our team performs sleep studies for adults at all our clinics, and for children over the age of 4 years in our Brisbane clinics only. Qualified nursing and scientific staff monitor our patients for the duration of the overnight study, attending to their needs during the night.
PSG is the gold standard in sleep diagnostic testing. PSG is a non-invasive test which records various biological processes that take place while you sleep. These include brainwave activity, breathing, muscle tone, limb movements, blood oxygen levels, and heart rhythm and rate. Additionally, we can perform Transcutaneous CO2 monitoring for suspicion of CO2 retention, as well as 21 lead EEG PSG for suspected nocturnal epilepsy.
At Home Sleep Studies
The Portable Sleep Study Process
After showering and changing into your sleeping attire or loose clothing, patients are required to arrive at their nearest 'setup' location between 4.00pm and 8.00pm. Including paperwork, this process will take around 45 minutes to an hour to complete.
After recording a number of measurements, including your blood pressure, height, weight and neck circumference, a number of electrodes are applied to your head and body. The process is non-invasive. During sleep, the device will monitor and record signals including brain activity, breathing rate, body position, muscle effort, oxygen level and heart rate and rhythm.
We ask you to please return the sleep monitoring device to the 'setup' location the morning after your study. The data will be downloaded and your results will be analysed and reviewed by one of our Sleep Scientists and Sleep Physicians.
Clinically severe results are noted immediately during analysis, and a preliminary notice is forwarded to your Doctor to expedite treatment. Otherwise your Referring Doctor can expect your results within 2 weeks.
[1] Home sleep studies are not suitable for all patients, and may not be suitable for you. At this time, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine guidelines on the use of Portable Monitoring Devices recommends that they should only be used in conjunction with a comprehensive sleep evaluation. Due to some pre-existing medical conditions and depending on what sleep disorder your doctor may suspect in your case, a home sleep study may not be suitable for you. Please consult with your doctor before considering this option.
[2] Please be advised that current Medicare guidelines restrict billing of a portable sleep study to one portable study in a twelve month period. If an abnormality is discovered from your portable study, and you require a second study for treatment, you will need to attend one of our sleep investigation units for the second study.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy (CPAP)
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure is considered the gold standard in treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). CPAP works through the delivery of machine-generated pressurised air that is directed to the upper airway via a mask worn during sleep. The pressurised air splints the upper airway, preventing it from collapsing and closing. Snoring and obstructive apnoeas are eliminated.
While some people take to CPAP readily and immediately, many require support and guidance to help them keep on track. Our service has been designed to provide that essential support.
Narcolepsy is diagnosed during an overnight stay in a sleep investigation unit, followed by a daytime Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT), also conducted in the sleep investigation unit. You may be asked to keep a sleep diary for a week or two prior to your overnight stay, to keep track of your sleeping patterns and how you feel during the day.
An MSLT is a daytime test which involves four or five 20 minute naps at two-hour intervals. This test monitors your sleep patterns, and will show an increase in certain sleep stages (mainly REM sleep) in narcoleptic patients. Most often your Sleep Physician (Specialist) will compare your night study and your day study, along with your symptoms, to correctly diagnose your condition.
GenesisCare is largest provider of radiation oncology in Australia, the UK and Spain, and also the leading provider of cardiology and sleep treatments in Australia. We exist to fill the treatment gap for the biggest disease burdens – cancer and heart disease – in an environment of substantial unmet demand from an ageing population. Click here to learn more

text: Many of our clients wonder what size stationery our rustic and vineyard wedding place card holders will hold. Our answer: You'd be surprised! For example, though the Rustic Real-Wood Place Card and Photo Holder pictured below measures approximately 1 inch tall and 1.75 inches in diameter, it is sturdy enough to hold a table sign that is 4 x 5 inches or a menu card measuring 5 x 7 inches or even a "tall and skinny" version that is 4 x 9.25 inches. Of course, we always recommend that you test out any place card holder in advance with the stationery size you are planning to use, just to be sure. We love the design of this particular card holder. The miniature log is a perfect match for the rustic vibe of a ranch, barn, farm or vineyard wedding.

#9 North Florida 5, #11 Ouachita Baptist
#9 North Florida 5, #11 Ouachita Baptist 2May 13, 2005
ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla.-The ninth-ranked North Florida Ospreys jumped out to a quick lead, then held on for a 5-2 win as the 11th-ranked Ouachita Baptist Tigers made a bid to upset another top-10 team at the 2005 NCAA Division II National Tennis Tournament on Friday at Sanlando Park.
The Ospreys came up with two of the three doubles points. The Tigers grabbed the first point as Jakub Smid and Ondrej Vana defeated UNF's Elad Gabay and Eduardo Perriera 8-4 at number two. North Florida, however, battled back to take 9-7 wins at numbers one and three. Leonardo Gomes and German Escallon upset OBU's 18th-ranked pair of Emilian Rabin and Vagen Akapian, while at number three, Damian De Polignac and Jose Maria Terrera battled back from a 5-3 deficit to knock off the Tigers' Alejandro Chong and Joan Costa.
In singles, the Ospreys quickly made it 4-1 as Perriera bumped off Rabin 6-1, 6-3 at number one and Terrera handled Akapian 6-1, 6-4 at number two. But Costa defeated Glen Marshall 6-2, 6-3 at number six to pull OBU to within 4-2 and the teams split sets at numbers three four and five. At number five, UNF's Gabay rallied back from his first set loss to defeat Vana 1-6, 6-2, 6-4 to clinch the win for the Ospreys.
North Florida advances back to the national championship match for the first time since falling 4-2 to Lander in 1995 at UC Davis. The Ospreys will face the defending champion West Florida Argonauts in an all-Sunshine State match up at 10:00 am Saturday, May 14.

On all operating systems, the printing method is the same, but choose which is the best printer for our home or office depends on multiple criteria. In this article we will give you several tips for you to consider when buying a printer.
Fortunately, there are many options when buying a printer, and the specific purpose of this article is to help you in choosing the right printer for your needs.
When to buy a laser printer and when buying a printer ink jet
The laser printers are best placed in the corporate environment, because they have the best cost / benefit per printed page, and besides that, supporting a large number of prints per minute. The latest models come with Wi-Fi and can be connected directly to a network. Color laser printers are gaining market share quickly, before largely dominated by black and white.
In the other hand, inkjet printer are recommended for residential or office when you need to print only a small amount of pages. It is much cheaper choose a multifunction printer, instead of buying for home or office a printer, scanner and copier by separate.
Over time, inkjet printers have improved print quality with regard to text and graphics, however, the cost of the cartridges is higher than the price of the printer many times, so which many users opt for the so-called "alternative cartridges", cheaper than the originals.
I have a small office, what is the right printer for me?
In this point, the most suitable is a multifunction printer. Through this device, you have three devices in one: printer, scanner and a copier machine. In addition we will save a lot of electricity and floor space. You can set it to print in black and white, allowing us to extend the life of the color cartridges.
An "alternative cartridge" harms the printer?
Everyone says the price of original ink cartridges are the great villain of the printers. But that does not mean that generic and cheaper cartridges, with more amount of ink, are the best alternative. While they may not damage the printer, the fact is that sometimes the performance is much lower and the final page cost is close to the original cartridge manufacturers.
How to understand the print speed?
Print speed is measured in ppm (pages per minute). When we see that a printer is capable of printing 36 ppm in black and 19 ppm color, we know if a printer is fast or not. The faster printers are those that use two cartridges at the same time, so achieve good ppm rates. It is also important to know the time it takes to print the first page, that is, the time it takes the printer to begin printing the first copy.
How to understand the resolution of a printer?
The resolution of a printer is measured in "Dpi" (dots per inch), i.e. dots per inch. The higher the dpi, the better the image quality. If a printer which claims 6000×1200 dpi resolution means you can print 6000 points horizontally, and 1200 vertically in a square inch.
Which it is a duty cycle of a printer?
It called "duty cycle" to the amount of monthly impressions you can deliver the equipment. This information is of vital importance, since through this data can know if you want the printer is large-sized or not. The higher the cycle of the printer, more impressions per day.
What is the most appropriate printer for printing photos?
The Inkjet printers have an important advantage in this type of printing. Even in the cheapest models, we can print high quality photos. To achieve high quality is also necessary to take high-resolution photos
In this point, if we have an image of poor quality and low resolution, it is likely to look good on the screen of your computer or mobile device, but when printing on paper, never get a good quality. The higher the dpi, the better the print quality.
What are the connectivity options offered by printers?
The most common method today to connect the printer to the computer is through USB, since parallel ports has long ago stopped using, at least in the home environment and small office.
Other ways to connect a printer to the PC is via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, a method that is becoming very popular these days.
Who likes to photograph, look for a printer with input cards CF, MS, SD, xD, a resource is PictBridge, this port allows the printer to receive photos directly from a camera that also have that kind of connection.
How to know if the capacity of the paper tray will be adequate for my needs?
Everything depends on the daily volume and the type of printing you need. If you want to print envelopes or paper with high grammage, the tray will be compromised.
Therefore, it is always important to check what is the capacity of the printer trays, both the tray to store the paper to be printed, such as tray receiving the printed paper. Printers with low capacity need to be provisioned more continuously.
I have problems installing drivers in Linux
The inability to install the drivers of some printer models in Linux distributions has been a headache for many people. Currently manufacturers provide drivers for almost all operating systems.
Not to take any chances, when you have chosen the printer, access the website LinuxPrinting.org with your favorite Internet browser and make sure the printer compatibility with Linux distributions, read comments from users and end up taking your decision.
How to calculate the cost per page of each model?
For this operation, it must divide the price of the cartridge by the number of pages it prints (information given by the manufacturer). This calculation is very important, since it will give us an idea of the cost of operating the printer, which will help us to calculate the cost when we have to deal with the replacement of the cartridges.
What kind of paper can I use?
The A4 paper is accepted in all printers. If you want to use other formats and weights, see if the printer model that you want support others sizes. Any unsupported paper can damage the printer.
You know InkSaver?
Before you buy your printer, you can install on your PC a little program called Inksaver. It reduces the consumption of inkjet printers, prolonging the time of use of each cartridge, in addition to full control of how much ink that is used by the printer.

I'm perched on an old barstool in our garage, watching him work. The tinies we've made are sleeping in their beds, worn out by growing up. We've worked all weekend, me and him, loving our Saturdays but somehow filling them with too-much-to-do. After Sunday afternoon began to turn into conversations about what to do for supper and for the evening ahead, tossing out suggestions of drives, parks, playgrounds, pools, we realised that we really didn't want to go anywhere or do anything but be here, home, together. So we tossed some chicken on the barbeque and sat on our back deck, listening to the creek when the tinies stopped talking long enough to take a breath now and again. He balanced our littlest girl on his knee, eating one-handed and I drank a super tiny Corona called a Corinita, about the size of a baby bottle, that made him roar with laughter when he confronted them in the fridge earlier. We ate blueberry-peach crisp that Anne and I made that morning, berry juice running down our chins and the day was just a big show off, warm and bright, lazy and happy.
Now it's just us in the dim, sitting in the garage, me watching him work on a cherry dresser. He's methodically painting this Craigslist find for the girls' room the colour Lamb and, bless him, he never even laughed or rolled his eyes when I sent him to Chilliwack to pick it up, promising to paint it myself this time. We both knew I wasn't going to be painting that dresser but he picked it up anyway, bought the paint from the circled paint chip card I handed him and got to work that weekend, sanding and painting, while the tinies rode bikes and watched the jets from the local air show overhead.
The only condition of his labour is my presence so I sit, perched, feet swinging, talking. We pick out music to listen to and the fluorescent light above our heads buzzes and hums. We're talking about discipline (or the lack of it), church today, new friend debriefings, the book I'm writing, the school he's trying to finish (still) and how frustrating it is to work and work and still feel like you're just barely making ends meet because I do a lot of things really well but unfortunately, none of them make us much money.
The moths are swooping in and the owls are screeching out back of the house. I keep poking my head inside to tip my ears upstairs but all is quiet. Even we are quiet now, listening to Josh Garrel's sing about love and war and the sea in between.
He's working and he's thorough and patient, full attention on the work before him. My eyes are smiling because I know that look and I know his patience, his attention, well and I think I'd like to sit here and watch him work for a while longer, sun setting over the white house with green trim. When I kiss him, he tastes like barbeque chicken and summer days of working, again, just like every summer and I am so glad we chose each other for these days.

Isn't it humongously annoying that Microsoft doesn't make their drivers available for download? What do they have to gain? After all, this software is useless without the hardware...
Well, anyway. After a lot of futile web searches I found the original CD on my shelf, and decided to spare
others a lot of trouble and help Microsoft support its' own products.
Here it is, right off the CD
Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick software version 4.0. My FF2 works just fine in W2k pro with this software and the VIA USB patch. Just follow the instructions in the MS Knowledge Base article and it'll work.
Already tried it? Give your review.


text: Tile & Grout Cleaning If you're like most people that have tiles, sooner or later you will get to the point that no matter how much you scrub, the grout remains looking grungy. You don't have to put up with it! Most Carpet Cleaning Association members also offer tile and grout cleaning as part of their repertoire, using high-pressure water blasting equipment that operates within a vacuum head, meaning very little water being splashed about and very quick drying times. It is infinitely more efficient, easier and safer to use our method than traditional mopping, bleaches, or getting down on your poor hands and knees, scrubbing to no avail and we're sure that the end results will surprise you. Once again we focus on training in this field, encouraging members to attend all and any training in this field, along with the Association holding workshops to complement their training, so you can rest assured that the job you get done will be done right, first time.

text: At first glance, images from Elisabeth Bernstein's "Scape" series (2007-09), presented in lightboxes, appear to depict hazy mountainous landscapes shrouded in veils of cloud and diffuse light. Closer inspection reveals their true nature: Bernstein photographs heaps of paint pigment powder submersed in vessels or spread on tabletops and cast in artificial light, in order to fabricate uncanny "landscapes". Bernstein is interested in exploring environments and dreamscapes that transcend time and specific space; her images could describe earthly terrain or moonscapes, the dawn of a day or a post-apocalyptic glow. Her photography contains drama as well as serenity, a quality that also permeates her time-lapse images of women sleeping, suspended between motion and stillness, wakefulness and dreams.

The beautiful melodic tones of the violin weave into the rhythmic mastery of the mridangam, kanjira and tabla in this very special concert experience.
Shreya Devnath is a student of the legendary Sri Lalgudi Jayaraman, currently under the guidance of Sri Lalgudi GJR Krishnan, and strives to be a worthy representative of this prestigious school of music. She has been actively performing within and outside India for the last seven years. She performs dual roles, mainly as a soloist, but also as an accompanist, performing alongside various other artistes. Her music is characterized by substance and freshness with paramount importance given to aesthetic beauty. It truly is music for the mind and soul, a journey for the artiste and the audience.
Joining Shreya on mridangam is RN Prakash, a versatile artist from Bangalore, South India. He has been playing wide range of percussion instruments since a young age and has performed extensively across the world. On kanjira is a rising young star of the Generation Next music scene, Pujenthan Sivagurunathan, and on tabla is a stalwart of the Music for the Mind and Soul series, percussion master, Kousic Sen. Kousic will join the talented trio in the second half of this amazing concert.
Artists: Shreya Devnath (violin), RN Prakash (mridangam), Pujenthan Sivagurunathan (kanjira), Kousic Sen (tabla)


text: There is not much of a better way to test some new camera and editing software than drinking back alley beers and watching some football with Dani Dukes. The footage was shot on a 7D using the Cinestyle color space and color corrected with Magic Bullet Looks. I used the Epic look and adjusted the contrast and saturation a bit depending on the shot. I really like shooting with Cinestyle and working more in post with color grading and correcting software. The flat Cinestyle profile really allows you to give your film a unique touch and raises the potential for shooting on DSLRs. I was amazed with a few shots that looked like they had no hope and were very easily corrected.

WOW. Amiright? Chanel's bedroom is gorgeous. The epitome of every bedroom dream I have ever had. I mean, this bedroom is GOALS. Thank you SO much, Chanel, for sharing that with us!!!
Don't forget to stop by her site to show her some extra love!
You are all amazing and beautiful and I am so lucky to know so many incredible women! Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to subscribe to my blog via email and follow my social media channels for unique tips and tricks you won't see anywhere else!
Have you looked in your closet lately? When was the last time you actually —…26 August 2016
It's FRIDAY. WOO HOO! Another week, come and gone. How can it already…26 August 2016
Your bedroom is gorgeous. I really wish I could have white linens but I have 3 dogs and 2 cats that would destroy that pretty quick, I like the reading nook the best. I need a reading nook now but in a different color. LOL
LOL! We have a cat too — I totally get that!
I am OBSESSED with your room! I love all the different patterns. I'm all for all-white bedding, it just makes bed so much more comfy!
xo, Amanda | http://www.thegoldengirldiary.com
Thanks Amanda!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this room! Now can you come do mine! haha! xoxo
Chanel did AMAZING
I love your style!! Especially the black and white.
Thanks Michelle!!!
Thanks so much for the feature girl!! xoxoxo
Anytime, girl!! I loved having you!!!
What a beautiful room! I love how light And bright it is!
Wow!! That bedroom is beautiful!!!! I love a mostly white bedroom. Thanks for the inspiration!!! xo
No problem Jaime!!! 🙂
Beautiful room choices! It looks so calming!
http://www.sweetteasweetie. com
Her bedroom looks STUNNING! My bedroom is the one thing I've had full control over designing and decorating. While I'm right there with your "living in a shoebox of an apartment", I still love to look at other people's designs. Gives me some inspiration for the future!
The mirror addition is so great! It definitely makes the space seem larger!
So true Chloe!!!
Beautiful room! Nice work!
Thanks Ryan!!
I saw this on Instagram and just had to see the rest of the room. What a beautiful make over. I wish I could see the before photos 🙂
I know. Totally room envy over here!!!
Oh my goodness Chanel's room is beautiful!! I live in the PNW and all those things: leggings, flannels, coffee, and Amazon fit perfectly here.
I don't think I'd love the summer there (because I've done Texas and South Carolina summers) but I wouldn't mind living there. 🙂
Leggings and flannels work for me!!!!
What a gorgeous room! I love the mirror!
That's a gorgeous room. I love the colors and the pop of black. nicely done.
Thanks Terri!
That looks like a really comfortable room to be in. Wow, can you come over and do my room?
Chanel is amazing, isn't she?
Love the entire concept of the room. I love the minimalist and simplistic chicness of the room decor. Very nice.
Kiwi it is totally chic!!! Thank you!
Love this look from top to bottom! I can image how relaxed and comforted being in this room would make you feel!
So true!! It is Chanel's getaway space!
Such a bright and gorgeous space! I would love to just lounge in there if my master looked this nice!
Me too Roxanne!
That bedroom looks like an upscale hotel…nothing but luxury…love it
Thanks Kim!!! I LOVE that upscale hotel feel!
I love the black and whites! That's totally in right now and I'm glad because it's always my first choice for color schemes!
Mine too!
What a lovely look, very elegant and peaceful.
Thank you Wendy!!!
LOVE your makeover and want to duplicate it in my house! My master bedroom is kinda tiny, so I might have to think about how to "make it work" on a smaller scale! Gorgeous!
Thanks Karen!! Chanel did an AMAZING job!
Oh, my god! It looks so amazing! I'd wish I had such a bedroom!
Why did you choose to overlay the rugs?
I think Chanel did that because it adds texture and dimension to the room! But that is a great question!
I really like the wall color! I want to just jump in that bed and take a nap. Such an inviting space.
So true!!!
Your bedroom is absolutely beautiful! I love the soothing colors and the bold pattern of the rug. It all fits together perfectly.
That is one classy bedroom. I wish I had the chance to redo our bedroom. We just moved in, but we are still unsure if we would be moving again within this year, so my husband vetoed any "large" redecorating. I'm already getting away with drapes and rugs as it is though.
It is SO classy!
What a stunning bedroom! You did a great job!
Wow what a gorgeous room. I lvoe the black adn white theme going on here.
Me too!
More than anything, I admire her courage to have white linens with two small children in her bedroom! 🙂 The style is simple and elegant all at the same time.
This looks amazing!! I love how bright and airy it is. It definitely has the "hotel room" feel!
Love this!! My favorites aspects are definitely the rug and the wall color. In love!
Thanks Hannah!!!
Taylor…this is INSANELY gorgeous!!! Holy macarole. I lovelovelove that mirror above your bed…SO beautiful.
Thanks Erica!
OMGosh, what a stunning and beautiful bedroom makeover! I'm in total need of a re-do and I just love what you have done! Bookmarking this page for future inspiration!
So glad you loved it Jessica!!!!
It looks really pretty. My kids would destroy all that white though. Maybe in a few years when they are out of the destructive stage.
What a gorgeous space! It really does feel like vacation, it's so well designed– clean & elegant.
Thanks Kristie!
What a pretty space!!
I love your space! I love seeing how people decorate their rooms and houses. I love the look of all white, but I have two dogs, and they shed like crazy lol 🙁
LOL. My cat sheds so much!!!
I am loving your new room. We need a lift for our bedroom badly!
Its a great way to change up a space 🙂
WOW!!! So gorgeous! I absolutely love everything, especially the colour!
The redesign turned out beautifully. I love the little details and decorative accents.
Thanks Jill!
what a gorgeous room! Those nightstands, and headboard — swoon! Definitely gave me some ideas for my new space! xx
Right?! SO gorgeous.
What a gorgeous bedroom! I wouldn't mind having my bedroom mad over to look like that! haha

March 01, 2013Last night marked the 15th Annual Transworld Skateboarding Awards honoring the sports biggest and brightest stars. Going down every year in the heart of Hollywood this party can basically be considered Skateboarding's big night out, where everybody converges on the Avalon Hollywood for five hours of sheer fun. A night where its not uncommon to rub elbows (literally) with your favorite current pro or completely fan out on legends of the past. A night that you remember and think about until the next one rolls around...unless you have so much fun that you accidentally forget-if you get our drift. A night that is special, and this year made it that much better as we were fortunate enough to watch our very own Guy Mariano double-fist it and take home two trophies; one for the coveted "Readers' Choice" award and the other for "Video Part of the Year" due to his sensational role in Girl/Chocolate's Prettysweet (which also won the "Video of the Year" award). When all was said and done our friend Mr. Mariano actually graced the stage three times, which is actually an astounding feat and never seen before 60% win ratio! We honestly couldn't be more happy for Guy, and watching him triumph and graciously accept his awards was so gratifying and we feel couldn't have gone to a more deserving individual. Guy is seriously one of the coolest, most down to earth individuals we've ever known and we want to give a big cheers to Transworld and their readers for nailing this one right on the head! Just whatever you do don't call it a comeback... The scene inside the Avalon. Show DJ C-Bot, aka Chris Cote. Lizard on hosting duties?? And the winner is... Yuppp... Guy Mariano! DGK accepts the award for best team. Our dear friends at Girl/Chocolate winning "Video of the Year" for Prettysweet. C'mon, was there really any question... Yep, Guy won two awards! Have you seen his Prettysweet part yet? After party in the back room Bardot of the Avalon. Mike Mo and his lovely lady Talisa enjoying the evening. David Loy in the house. With little bro Ethan as well. Hope that wrists heals soon bud, its not supposed to look like a U is it? Don't take the alley shortcut out. All eyes were on the video premiere. The view of DTLA from the top of the Roosevelt Hotel. Ya, that's right, somehow we managed to make our way into the Penthouse... Ryan Reyes representing. The dopest sight of the evening, the fabled Roosevelt sign. An eerily empty Hollywood Blvd. Apparently refreshments and dudes in robes were everywhere. If you took home on of these congrats, you are

Yes you heard right, I am giving away Love Is In The Air, a 16 page adventure involving a love triangle from the gods above.
The Gist: "Strolling along the roads on a particularly peaceful night as a strange light shoots across the sky. Make a wish! Wait... why is it getting bigger?! A comet shoots into the ground in the nearby forest, this isn't a rock... this is a 10 foot tall humanoid with wings. Join us on a story of love, revenge, and mystery as we discover what petty squabbles the gods are going through and what they have in store for us."
Recommended for four players at level 3 and will take them to level 6. Click the link below to enjoy your free adventure!

It's one thing to be home alone for the night, to live away from home but have roommates, or to be home alone for a few days but have a lot of plans. But having the house to myself for four days, and two days of those (in a row) having no plans was a great reminder that I shouldn't be afraid to have time just for myself. It was nice to be in a totally quiet house and to schedule house cleaning with the plans I had for myself that day.
I woke up Saturday around 9:00 am so I could shower before going to my boyfriend's house (I had to leave at 11:00 am and I take forever to get ready). Despite giving myself a full two hours, I JUST made it and left my house a few minutes past 11:00 am to get to my boyfriend's at noon.
After spending my Saturday with him, my personal time began and it was both relaxing and also pretty productive. I started my Sunday at 7:30 am, which isn't painfully early, but definitely was not my normal 9:00 am Sunday wake up. But I did it anyway because I was visiting a nearby shrine for Mass rather than going to my home parish. I always love visiting cathedrals, shrines, and old churches whenever possible. Since the day was totally mine to plan out, I took advantage of it. That's not to say I can't do my own stuff when my family is home because I can, but I figured I'd go big or go home and knowing that I only had my own schedule to worry about was a bonus.
I got to the shrine at 9:15 am, just 15 minutes before Mass began. The Mass there was a little different from the one at my home parishes, but even Catholic Churches can add their own little touch to Mass, as long as the main parts are the same and they don't do anything against Church teaching. For example, after the homily, a microphone was passed around and people shared how the homily related to their own life… something my church does not do. Another different thing was when the priest asked parishioners if anyone had any prayer intentions and welcomes us to share them out loud. Not all Catholic Churches do this. I know at my church, we just say it in our hearts.
After Mass ended, I took a walk around the statues, saying a prayer at each and then spoke to one of the 70-something-year-old parishioners for over an hour. He was a really nice guy and our conversation would take 1,000 words to write about, so I might just save it for another time.
He was a really cool elderly man, I will say that.
After that, it was finally time to go home and continue with my busy schedule. I ate lunch, took my car to get a car wash, went food shopping, and picked up the book, "Always and Forever, Laura Jean," by Jenny Han. I recently read the first book of the series, am currently ready the second, and just had to pick up the third since I know I am going to read through the second really quickly. After putting away the groceries, I gathered the trash and look a little bit of time to read. I was happy that it was still pretty early in the afternoon, but I didn't have the energy to do anymore chores/cleaning, so I let myself just watch some television and ordered two slices of pizza from our nearby pizzeria.
The whole day really gave me a taste of what it might be like once day when I am living by myself… having to balance out responsibilities with free time. I finished my day with video chatting my boyfriend and reading.
Today (Monday) was a little less busy. I did leave my house to take my mom's car to the car wash, but other than that, I just dusted and cleaned the bathrooms and caught up with my "summer school"/ free blogging classes I am taking. I considered grilling a burger for dinner, but didn't since that's what I'm going to be eating for the 4th of July. Instead, I heated up some frozen food and it was perfect. 🙂
It may seem crazy that I am analyzing this weekend so much, but it really did feel like I was living totally and completely alone for two full days. I had no plans with friends and very little interaction with other people. I got done a lot of stuff that I have been putting off, such as clearing out my old laptop. It was nice to finally check that off my list since I was supposed to do that a year ago.
I ended my day with a nice "chocolate" bubble bath, face mask, and my book.
Overall, even though I wasn't paying any bills, I still felt like an adult and enjoyed the personal time. It reminded me how important it is to take time for yourself once in a while, whether you're single or in a relationship. You need to spend time with yourself. Take time to reflect and re-group, even if it's just a "stay-cation" used to catch up on some things and doing your own thing.
What types of things do you do for yourself? Let me know in the comments below.
