Downward Facing (Black) Dog
One of our anonymous referrals from Mind Oxfordshire speaks about his depression and what Yoga Quota has done for him
I was first diagnosed as having depression 4 years ago and, since then, the black dog made its unwelcome and unannounced visits from time to time.
The last time – the worst I've experienced - was around 3 months ago.
The darkness slowly crept up on me – I was irritable and short-tempered – and before I knew what was going on a huge shadow had crept over me, gradually blocking out any rays of light in my life. The wonderful people in my life - my partner, our lovely children, family and friends – failed to lift my spirits. I became inward-looking, avoided social situations and was consumed by an overwhelming tiredness which sucked the remaining life out of me.
My mind was racing with negative thoughts which I couldn't get rid of. It felt as though there was no end to the daily despair I felt. Suicidal thoughts flashed through my mind – in the shower, on the allotment, playing with the children. They came out of nowhere, making me feel even worse.
Why am I telling you this? Because depression feeds on the shame and stigma that surrounds it, leaving depressives feeling even more lonely and isolated than they already are. Depression hates people talking about it. Just by knowing that others have depression, or have had depression, can make a huge difference.
I went on sick leave from work. At first I slouched around on the sofa, lacking the motivation to do anything. I had previously done a mindfulness course which had really helped, but I had slipped out of the habit of taking time out to meditate.
It sounds ridiculous, but 3 months ago I didn't have the energy to just lie on my back, close my eyes and meditate. Eventually I forced myself to do a 5 minute mindfulness meditation. Afterwards, I almost cried, relieved that my mind had slowed down for the first time in ages. Since then I have meditated daily, sometimes several times a day. It has made a huge difference to how I feel. My mind is calmer and less cluttered. In practising mindfulness – focusing on my breath, observing my thoughts, and being in the present moment – I accept my thoughts, both good and bad. Thinking is what the mind does so don't push your thoughts away; watch them, recognise them and accept them.
I had been thinking about trying out yoga for some time. Then – during a conversation with someone at the mental health charity, Mind - I found out about Yoga Quota. I was amazed and heartened to discover there was a charity like this providing yoga classes for those may not normally be able to access them. Since I took my first class I haven't looked back. I love it and I look forward to each session. Like mindfulness meditation, you need to focus on your breath and, like meditation, yoga is a personal journey which needs regular practice. Through the classes I have met some lovely people, had some good laughs and heard some good music. I'm feeling great, I'm more aware of my posture at work, and I now walk taller with more confidence. That's not a bad return.
I hope others with depression and other mental health conditions get to know about, and experience, Yoga Quota. Talk to someone, a friend, family or a mental health charity, such as Mind. Don't go through it alone.

How To Avoid a Premature Child?
Answered by Shaykh Ilyas Patel and Faraz Rabbani
Question: I am within the 3 months of my pregnancy and my last pregnancy resulted as prematurity. is there anything that you can recommend for me to pray to make sure that this baby is not premature?
Answer: In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
I pray this finds you in the best of health and spirits. May Allah grant you an easy pregnancy and a healthy child.
We should remember that everything is in the Hand of Allah, and whatever He manifests is ultimately best for us if we respond to it in the best of ways. Remember the words of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) that,
Strange indeed are the affairs of a believer, for anything that happens to them is good—and that isn't true for anyone but a believer. If good happens to them, they are thankful and that is good for them. If difficulty befalls them, they are patient and that is good for them. [Related by Muslim and others, on the authority of Suhaib (Allah be pleased with him)]
A powerful means of seeking Allah's favor, mercy, and assistance is heart-felt supplication after each obligatory prayer.
With that, some scholars recommend the following—based on experience, and as an application of what the Qur'an and Sunnaestablish regarding seeking healing through the Qur'an:
1. Anyone who, whilst placing his hand on the stomach of his pregnant wife, repeats Ya Mubdi ( O Originator) 99 times at the time of suhur (before Fajr), neither will she have a miscarriage nor will she give birth prematurely, insha Allah. [M.Musa OlgarUpbringing of Children pg 28]
2. If an expectant woman writes Sura Al-Haqqa (in the 29 Juz) and wears it as an amulet (ta`weez), it will protect the unborn child from physical, mental and spiritual calamities, insha Allah. [A`maal Qurani, M. Ashraf Ali Tahanawi pg 64]
And Allah Knows Best
Ilyas Patel & Faraz Rabbani.

The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations State Department and USAID Management Subcommittee is proposing legislation to explicitly forbid State Department employees from using personal email accounts for their official work for the department.
"There are serious and systemic security management problems at the State Department that span the tenure of several Secretaries," said Sen. David Perdue (R.-Ga.), who filed the Securing our Secrets Act of 2016 to make it clear to State Department employees they can never use private email accounts and servers to handle sensitive and classified information.
"Most recently during Hillary Clinton's tenure, these security weaknesses were amplified by the use of private email servers and non-governmental email accounts," he said. Clinton is poised to become the Democratic nominee for president.
FBI Director James B. Comey Jr., said in his July 5 announcement that he recommended to Department of Justice prosecutors that they do not charge Clinton, yet the director said her private emails were a serious vulnerability. "We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial e-mail accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account."
Comey added:
We also assess that Secretary Clinton's use of a personal e-mail domain was both known by a large number of people and readily apparent. She also used her personal e-mail extensively while outside the United States, including sending and receiving work-related e-mails in the territory of sophisticated adversaries. Given that combination of factors, we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to Secretary Clinton's personal e-mail account.
The FBI director also said that in general he found the State Department's handling of classified information uneven and often lax.
The SOS Act would put the Office of the State Department Inspector General in-charge of ensuring that the department's emails are secure and that the law is followed.
The act also requires the department's to conduct regular audits of emails to detect spillage of classified information through electronic correspondence, upgrade information security training for State employees and produce an annual report to Congress all security violations and the department's response to security violations.

Mt. Greenwood's Robert Walanka, left, and Worth's Richard Plant show off their book that was just published 25 years after they created it.
One man loved to draw, the other loved to write.
They created a kid's book and thought their future was bright.
Getting published, however, proved to be quite a fight.
But 25 years later, everything is all right.
Back in 1990, Worth's Richard Plant and Mt. Greenwood's Robert Walanka combined on a children's book called "The Wunderful Tree."
Plant did the drawing and Walanka crafted the words. Walanka admires the works of Dr. Seuss, so he used rhythm and rhymes to tell the story of evil turning good.
They were pretty proud of their work. They were ready to show it to the rest of the world.
But they never got to show it to the rest of the world.
Walanka estimates that he sent the book out to more than 70 publishers.
"I was rejected and rejected and rejected and rejected," he said. "I was so frustrated I just shelved it. I put the manuscripts away.''
But he got into the world of self-publishing last year and wrote a book called "The Insect King," which he said didn't sell much.
"But it got my foot in the door," he said.
So Walanka dusted off the "Wunderful Tree" manuscript and found a better-known self-publishing company – AuthorHouse of Bloomington, Ind. -- to help print and promote the book.
Twenty five years later, Plant, a 68-year-old butcher at Pete's Fresh Market, and Walanka, a 66-year-old media specialist at the Daniel Burnham Elementary School library in Cicero are finally in the book game.
While they both know that selling their product won't be easy, they are hitting the ground running as they plan to promote their book this weekend at Fiesta del Sol in Chicago and will visit schools and libraries in the Chicago area. They also plan on marching in the Worth Days Parade in August.
For the 68-year-old Plant, who is hoping to retire after 40 years as a butcher in the near future, this is a dream come true.
"Ever since I drew for the school newspaper at Morgan Park High School, this is what I wanted to do," Plant said. "I had resumes all over the place but I couldn't get my foot in the door. This is something I always wanted to do but over the years it was more of a hobby.''
When the two tag-teamed 25 years ago for this book, in which a tree saves one land from being overtaken by "evil meanies" from another land, Plant could practically read Walanka's mind as to what he wanted the characters to look like.
"For some reason, when he told me about the book I immediately had in my head what I was going to draw," Plant said.
With the exception of added coloring courtesy of Ian Piirtola, Plant didn't have any revising to do.
"These are the same drawings we did 25 years ago," Plant said. "I was surprised they didn't want me to do more – but they liked it just the way it was.''
Walanka is not too shy when he talks about his book. He said he has been around children's books for years and thinks his book more than stacks up with many of the others he has seen.
"My book is better," he said. "I read books all the time. I read this book to a classroom of kids at Burnham and everyone clapped after I read the book. They loved the book. Teachers have told me this is the best book they've read.''
While Plant said his favorite illustrator is Chester Gould (who created Dick Tracy) Walanka said he loves Dr. Seuss.
"Every book I write is in rhythm. It rhymes. Sometimes to write four lines might take me six hours. I was signing a book for someone and I'm Jewish. He said 'we should call you 'Dr. Jewss.' Maybe if this works out, I'll call myself that.''
The self-described "former hippie" is almost done writing another book and Plant is putting the finishing touches on the illustrations. Walanka is telling any writer who will listen to keep pursuing their dreams.
"If I can do it at this age, anyone can do it," he said. "Don't give up. That's reality.''

Where To Get An Incredible Logo Created
Where To Get An Incredible Logo Created – If you're setting up a company offline/online or just want a little bit of work done to your current logo, then it can sometimes be hard to find a place that won't charge hundreds of dollars for a logo. I used to pay upwards of $200 to $500 per logo design, this was before I found the 4 sites I'll talk about below. Today, I'm going to show you where you can get a logo created for $5, $10, $27 and $129, after all the time I've spent getting logo's these are by far the best services that I've worked with. I'm going to start with the cheapest and go down in price.
Fiverr – Cheapest $5
The first and cheapest on the list has to be Fiverr. You can get a logo on Fiverr for $5.50 (inc service charge), which is insanely cheap. Most people ignore Fiverr due to the saying "You get what you pay for", in my opinion that saying doesn't mean anything when using Fiverr. I've got around 50 to 100 logos created on Fiverr. I use them for my niche sites, bulk sites and fake authority sites. The logos hold up well and as long as you know what you want you can get an awesome logo created.
Freelancer – Still pretty cheap $10 – $20
If you want a little more quality than Fiverr, but still want to keep that rock bottom price, Freelancer might just be the perfect place for you. Now you do need to shop around a little and it usually costs around $10 to $20 to get a nice logo created.
The only reason why I don't use Freelancer for most of my logo's is due to it being a little harder to use and trust people on. You really do need to be careful about who you employ on Freelancer. Due to the fact that people sometimes have no clue what they're doing. Once you get past the dodgy people it's a very awesome place to get a logo created.
LogoNerds – Best – Where I Get All My Logo's Created $27
My favourite place on this list. I use LogoNerds the most. I'd say I get around 80% of all my logos created on LogoNerds. I used to use Fiverr for all of them, then I found LogoNerd and realized I could get great quality for a very log cost. I now use Fiverr for my more low quality, bulk websites and logo nerds for all my high-profile blogs and sites.
What do LogoNerds Offer?
You get all the below for $27, not bad right?
- Web Ready Formats
- 3 Different Concept Choices
- Free Revisions
- Delivered in 3-5 Business Days
- Satisfaction Guaranteed
I've never worked with another service that offers 3 amazing concept designs at this price. If you're looking for the best priced and the best quality then look no further. You'll not find better at that price.
48HoursLogo – Amazing, But Expensive $99 Starting Price
Last on the list is 48HoursLogo, now I personally on use 48hourslogo for really important sites. I've got a very high-profile site releasing sometime in 2015 and I'll use 48hourslogo to do my logo, you do get incredible quality and it's by far the best site to choose for your logo.
With every competition you do you'll usually get around 30 different concept designs and if you know what you want you can get it without any question about it. In the future I'll try to use 48hourslogo more, I just prefer LogoNerds right now, due to price and quality. I know I'll get an incredible design every time with LogoNerds.
Where To Get An Incredible Logo Created – This was just my quick guide on where to get the best logo created. This is where I personally recommend. I've used all of these sites and way more, so I definitely know the difference between a good logo and a bad one. I hope this helped you out. If you need any more advice then just use the comments below.

One of the most common areas for mold growth is the underside of roof sheathing. This is due to poor ventilation of the attic, not enough insulation, water seeping in from the roof or siding, or poor venting from bathrooms.
Mold Solutions specializes in attic mold remediation in the Chicago area. These techniques require containment of the contamination to prevent the spread of mold to other areas of your home. Attic mold can be the most difficult to clean up due to lack of access and tight spaces, which is also why most people don't know they need an attic mold remediation company in Chicago.

Attic Mold Remediation Process
The traditional method of attic mold remediation is to hand, power sand, or wire brush along with the use of HEPA vacuuming, wiping with a detergent and finishing with a sealant. Older homes especially in the Chicago area have not been properly inspected for attic mold.
Mold Solutions MMR mold stain remover process reduces labor and lowers expenses. It is ideal for attic mold remediation due to its ability to get into tight spaces.

The 2017 Audi S8 Plus competes and it becomes the upper echelon of the luxury-sports-sedan realm. The trading blows with its machines as the 577-hp while Mercedes-AMG S63 and the 600-hp BMW Alpina B7 . S8 was not quite keeping up in the horsepower wars with its previous 520-hp. Audi introduced the top-dog Plus model in this year with more power. That is the reason of why it is now the only S8 configuration provided to U.S. buyers. Audi S8 2017 also difference with a shorter wheelbase, 117.8-inch as with the BMW 7-series. Not only it, the Mercedes S-class as the regular A8 is long-wheelbase only in America while the A8L in Audi-speak. There is an uprated chassis including a stiffer suspension and bigger brakes. All of them are as well as a subtle visual makeover. It has the unique styling care front and rears and snazzier interior trim too .
2017 Audi S8 has a higher price for the new model year. It is up $1025 or less than 1 percent to $116,850. black leather with Arras Red stitching is the only change and it costs $5500 as part of an Audi Design full leather package. The engine of Audi S8 2017 is the perfect one with twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8. It has a sinister yet subdued rumble and rockets the huge all-wheel-drive sedan down the road just like a supercar-like force. It is not dedicated to American ways.
There is extra visual aggression which enough to make sure you will not be mistaken for an A8 driver. the S8 Plus's blistering style makes it one of the ultimate car sold today. It will cruise around like the huge and luxury Sedan. in Dynamic mode, 2017 Audi S8 hunkers down on its suspension. It also seemingly defies the physic because it has keen steering. More than it is deft responses, and a willingness to rotate. There is still a con. The interior gives a sign that the A8 is getting on in years. By its subpar technology offerings compared. There is completed by others in the super sedan class. You should pay for more entertainment features for this car. It is cheaper than the Mercedes-AMG S63 and the BMW Alpina with its gorgeous feature. The feature is worth with its price.

This week started out with my youngest son breaking his thumb, then Symon coming down with strep throat. Life was rather busy and chaotic, but then suddenly our 'dramas' paled in comparison with the horrific circumstances that many are experiencing in Christchurch after the latest earthquake.
I think most of us in New Zealand (and many overseas) have been in a state of shock as we sit and watch the news. Strangely, (and despite having many more urgent things to do) I have found myself often sitting on the couch, staring blankly at the live coverage of the quake on the news and crocheting (in between tending to my dear man-sick males of course).
Seriously, crocheting is soooo therapeutic.
We have cried as sad news has been reported, clapped with joy at the footage of live people being pulled from the rubble, and prayed earnestly for these precious people in Christchurch.
Thankfully there are many ways that we can help (see here and Gail is doing something awesome here) - it's the least we can do.
Tomorrow, I am looking forward to my Things I'm Loving post, because seriously... despite the devastation and sorrow, there are many things that I am thankful for. Hoping you will join in too.
Regular news updates here.
Keep praying.

As a tribute to NYC Fashion Week, we bring you Seven Black T-Shirts – a video from one of our Vidaao Creatives.
As they put it: " A collaboration with our friends at Hitchcock Partners to show how quality is subjective. In the film we ask people to examine 7 black t-shirts that have all their brand markings and logos hidden. The prices of the T-shirts ranged from $280 to $5, from Prada to Hanes. All the participants had a difficult time telling the t-shirts apart. Our point was that quality is subjective and the value in a product is created by the story a brand tells to the public."

By Tench Phillips
How does a civilized society disintegrate into civil war and murder within a short span of time? Throughout the last century, state backed violence has been waged time and again by modern industrial societies against their own citizens. Germany's descent into fascism is the most notorious example but there's been many more descents into barbarism by governments whose institutions were hijacked by their military, by tyrannical dictatorships, or by corporate forces.
Critical analysis reveals that the roots of war are firmly embedded within the Western tradition of political liberalism, the socio-economic system controlling the world today. Liberalism is the worldview based upon the writings of John Locke and Adam Smith. It is the belief that the enlightened values of democracy, human rights, freedom, and justice are only obtainable through the economic system of finance capitalism. Their mantra that is sounded ad nauseam is for free unregulated markets, privatization of the public commons, and increased economic growth.
Liberalism has two separate tracks. The rightward current of liberalism has evolved over the years into the libertarianism of today. It's the belief in unfettered, unregulated markets to achieve the greatest social good. To paraphrase Ronald Reagan–big government can't solve the problems, it is the problem. This sentiment against the abusive power of government has justified the ongoing conservative attempts to dismantle social welfare, cut taxes for the wealthy and corporations, and divert greater funding to the military.
Some simple-minded libertarians still cite the bad writing of Ayn Rand as sound economic philosophy–consider the Speaker of the House Paul Ryan. I would recommend that he should quit his post and go back to school, but even if he did, the education he'd receive in most colleges in this country would be the same old backward looking neoclassical economics.
And then there is the leftward current of liberalism that has ebbed and flowed through various periods of New Deal social programs. These are government attempts to create a more equitable and just society by expanding social programs and regulating unfair corporate practices. And yet any hard-won legislation really only succeeds in placing Band-aids on the gaping wounds inflicted by a rigged capitalist system that enriches a wealthy elite at the expense of the working class. And since the two political parties are beholden to Wall Street, any effective social program like universal healthcare can't ever get out of the starting gate. All the while the semblance of a people's democracy is maintained by the Democrats.
The fallacies inherent within liberalism can't be perceived within the system that created the problems to begin with. But the outcomes of global finance capitalism are painfully obvious: a diseased populace, ecological disasters, mass incarceration, income inequality, unpredictable climate change, and massive perpetual war. And yet immense corporate profits can be reaped from all of the misery that's inflicted on the planet.
The most recent war in the long barbaric history of Western Europe took place in the early 1990s. The seeds of sectarian warfare sprouted after the death of Tito, the long-time communist dictator of Yugoslavia who had held the various factions of the country together–all the while walking the line between the communist block and the western powers.
The final collapse of the socialist federation of Yugoslavia in 1991 led to the complete break-up of the country into separate republics. Soon ethnic tensions were exploited by domestic leaders as well as by western governments that pumped military arms into the escalating conflicts.
The Bosnian War began in 1992 in Sarajevo, the very city that is attributed to be the start of World War I–the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in 1914. Over the decades, Sarajevo developed into a modern European city, a beacon of music and culture, and a multi-ethnic stew of Bosnian Muslims, Serbs and Croats.
So what forces orchestrated the disintegration of civil society within such a short time? A new documentary by filmmaker Roger Richards attempts to shed light on the various issues that led to the Bosnian War. Sarajevo Roses: A Cinematic Essay will show on Wednesday, June 7 with the Norfolk filmmaker in attendance.
Richards took an international photojournalism assignment in 1992 and traveled to Sarajevo on the outbreak of the Bosnian War. The city was already being bombarded under a siege by the Bosnian Serbs and the former Yugoslav Army. An average of 300 mortars-a-day were lobed into the city from the surrounding higher elevations.
The war lasted for four long years, killing some ten thousand residents of the city. The war in Bosnia triggered the worst mass killings and ethnic cleansing of civilians in Europe since the Holocaust in World War II. The genocide continued as the world watched on TV.
Target bombing by NATO finally silenced the Serbs, and peace talks were later held in Dayton, Ohio, in November 1995. The negotiations resulted in a federalized Bosnia and Herzegovina being divided into a Croat-Bosniak federation and a Serb Republic. Several political leaders were put on trail in international courts and found guilty of war crimes.
Sarajevo Roses draws from the voices and experience of those residents who lived through the catastrophe. They recall a life before the war of a tolerant pluralistic community. They could not envision how fast the nationalistic forces were able to use the mass media to terrify, corrupt, divide, and manipulate their fellow countrymen.
Richards has compiled and edited Sarajevo Roses from footage he filmed over a period of 24 years throughout his numerous journeys back to Bosnia during and after the war. He has chosen to narrate the film himself in a sober and poetic manner. But mainly he lets the film's subjects speak for themselves. There are five survivors of the siege that are featured in the film. In ongoing interviews, they recount their lives during the siege and then through their continuing struggles to recover from the trauma in its aftermath.
One of the film subjects is a medical doctor who tirelessly treated the wounded during the war without necessary medical supplies. He testifies in the film that the capacity to commit acts of extreme violence against our fellow humans is not limited to any particular ethnic group or nationality. War brings out the irrational beast that lies just beneath the surface in all of us, and only when we are aware of this dark side, may we have some hope of conquering our base impulses.
Richards has captured some of the most iconic images of the war, including that of a cellist with the Sarajevo Opera. On the days following a deadly mortar barrage, he would bravely play in the streets dressed in his tuxedo. Amazed by his performance, terrified people would briefly stop and listen as they ran between buildings to avoid snipers. "I play, I cry, people cry around me," he says in the film. "I hate when journalists talk and say, 'Your weapon is a cello,' " he says. "Cello is a music instrument, especially when national concert hall is destroyed, when national theater is destroyed. You take an instrument and you play on the street."
The title of the film comes from the numerous craters from mortar shells that remain on the concrete walkways and streets. They would sometimes create a fragmented pattern that looks like a floral arrangement when filled in with red resin.
Richards says that Sarajevo Roses may not have answers, but that the film provides many instructive warning signs. It's sobering to learn that even in societies as integrated as Bosnia's, ordinary citizens can be convinced by politicians and propaganda to accept, condone, and participate in genocide. "It has happened in Bosnia and in the Middle East. It has happened in the United States," Richards asserts.
Europeans are paying attention to the lessons of Richards' film where it premiered last year at the Sarajevo International Film Festival and was showcased for members of the European Parliament in Brussels, Belgium.
If the citizens of the world don't soon learn the tragic lessons from past brutal transgressions by governments and to demand the social and economic reform for the common good, it will soon become too late to do anything in the face of violent authoritarian regimes.
However the biases of liberalism don't allow for a clear-headed critique of global finance capitalism. As a result the seeds of fascism, nationalism, class warfare, and racism go undetected. Historically, when these oppressive forces are manipulated by those in power, it is invariably blamed on an elected leader such as our current President and not on the system that propelled his rise to the top. Liberalism has failed us. We have a pathological system that promotes self-interest, hyper-individualism, competitiveness, and wealth accumulation at the expense of a healthy civil society.
There's a war on the planet being waged today by governments and corporations. It's imperative for people around the world to confront the war cartels and the corporations that are profiting from the global arms trade. A revitalized anti-war movement on a global scale would be a good start.

Have you ever heard of the musical phenomenon called the Mozart Effect?
A French researcher named Dr. Alfred Tomatis introduced the concept in his 1991 book Pourquoi Mozart? (Why Mozart?), suggesting that listening to the music of Mozart can help 'retrain' the ear of children with learning disabilities – it can help stimulate healing of the mind, or even expansion of the brain itself.
In fact, through his research, Tomatis claimed Mozart helped adults with depression, assisted them in learning a second language faster, harnessed their communication skills, improved their creativity, and even contributed to bettering their on-the-job performance.
The 'Effect' became more popularized through former music critic Don Campbell's book, The Mozart Effect. In the book, which realized the entrepreneurial benefits of such a claim, Campbell theorized that listening to Mozart will temporarily enhance the brain's ability to generate and conceptualize solutions to relatively complex problems. Although highly controversial and containing many flaws, Campbell's book caught on like wild fire.
So much so that in the U.S state of Georgia, the governor decided that funds should be used to buy a Mozart CD for every newborn Georgian.
Although there has been no direct evidence for enhancement of overall intelligence, music does hold a special place in the minds of many academics and students alike.
Music in the 'classroom'
Athabasca University professor Reinekke Lengelle in the Master of Arts Integrated Studies (MAIS) program uses music to promote successful writing for herself and her students. Students write "proprioceptively" while listening to Yo-Yo-Ma's Unaccompanied Cello suites in the course Writing the Self (MAIS 616).
When penning her dissertation, Career Writing: Creative, expressive, and reflective approaches to narrative and dialogical career guidance, Reinekke Lengelle sat at a table in the corner of the living room and played Chopin through her headphones to focus on her writing while her children watched TV.
"It helped calm my brain in a way that allowed me to keep writing – to keep focused. It was very calming. It sometimes felt like the keyboard was a kind of piano on which I was composing. I think the writing is better for it too – there is more beauty in it. Scholarly articles should be inviting to read from an auditory point of view," says Lengelle.
"I didn't thank Chopin in my forward, though in hindsight, I should have."

#1: Speak English

#6: Pass a 20 question test on what your candidate is FOR and AGAINST before you can vote for them
#7: Pass a 10 question test on basic US Government
#8: Pass a 10 question test on basic US History
Basically, the intent of these extra regulations is to weed out people who have no idea who they are voting for and the impact it will have on our country. And to also only allow people that contribute to this country in a positive way bot financially and morally.
So, you say that all the citizens need to get some tests and attest their intelligence level to do vote.
According to Wikipedia, vote means a method for a group such as a meeting or an electorate to make a decision or express an opinion"often following discussions, debates, or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting.
Please begin your claims and provide prudent proof. I'll do rebuff your argument points
thanks and hope this debate is meaningful.

I know what the definition of voting is and how and why our voting system operates the way it does.
And I also know that Voting Rights have evolved through the ages. As seen in the following link I provided:
I am just saying it should stop evolving in the direction to make everyone able to vote. It should start evolving to make the quality of every vote better. America should prefer Quality or Quantity.
Here are a few videos of the types of people I want weeded out from voting:
These videos support why my proposed voter criteria #4,#6,#7, and #8 should be implemented
#1: Speak English
Should be implemented because our Country should speak English, it is our primary language. If somebody wants to vote for America's President, they should speak English too. We shouldn't have to spend all that money to cater to people who can't speak English. Here is a supporting story:
#5: Never committed a Felony
I will leave this out of this debate because I have already started another debate, just pertaining to exactly this.
#2: Employed
A person voting for the ruler of this country should be contributing to this country, not just sucking every ones tax money and sources. It is not fair for the people who work to have their vote cancelled out by the guy next to him that doesn't work and voted for another candidate that will end up negatively effecting the American worker. The only exception would be if you were a full time student. Here is another supporting source: http://procapitalist.wordpress.com...
#3 Not on Welfare
See #2
Please provide arguments as to why #1 through #8 Voter criteria, with exception of #5, should not be implemented.
Thank you

Welcome to my website
So here it is. My first website. You found me and I'm so glad you did.
Lee Woodruff.com. Kind of scary. Like a brand: a type of ketchup, pantyhose or fabric softener. And there is a huge part of me, with only two books under my belt that feels like a complete fraud having a website at all. Don't you have to BE somebody to have a website?
But here I am, a techno-peasant who has plunged into the world of on-line communications and I'm thrilled to be able to communicate with you, show you some of my work and listen to what you have to say as well. I will try to keep this blog updated on a regular basis.
I can honestly say that over the past two years, after the publication of In an Instant I have been honored to meet so many individuals and families who are facing their own challenges that life has hurled at them.
When someone has read the book, one of the biggest compliments I hear is when that person tells me that they can imagine we might be friends if we lived in the same town. As a writer, it is an honor to think about the connections made to everyone who reads something I wrote. It's humbling.
I hope that with this new book, Perfectly Imperfect and with the first book, In an Instant, I have captured some of the many, commonalities in simply being a wife, mother, caregiver, sister, daughter, working woman, friend and all the many other ways we define ourselves.
I also invite you to contact me with your story. Sometimes just the act of sharing opens people up to continue healing or simply feeling part of a greater community.
And now – a list of this week's fun words to say. I'm a word-collector and so when I come across a word I like, or dislike, (some of these are parts of the male anatomy involved in reproduction ) I add it to a list.
These are my current fun words:
Naturally Lycra is the key ingredient in Spanx. Now most of you gals know what Spanx are. I like to tell my husband they are sausage casing for the female form. A modern kind of girdle. You are looking nice and tight in your clothes and then BAMM – when you peel the body stocking off at bedtime it's like Cup-O-Noodles after you add the hot water.
Some secrets are best not shared.
Lastly — Do you twitter? Now you have a good reason to…
With Memorial Day coming up– I'd love for you to Join me and Tweet to ReMIND Tweet for Injured Troops on Memorial Day Weekend
ReMIND.org's goal is to mobilize 400,000 Twitter users over Memorial Day weekend (Friday, May 22, to Monday, May 25). We want to send a message of support to the troops who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan and their families, and raise $1.65 million for local support services and resources to assist their recovery from the physical and psychological wounds of war. Each Twitter user must Tweet at least four times in order to attain our goal.
Let our service members and military families know that you recognize the sacrifices they have made. Pledge now. Tweet to ReMIND on Memorial Day weekend! http://tweettoremind.org/
Tweets for Tweet to ReMIND must include the hashtag #tweettoremind

I loved your first book and can't wait for my pre-order to arrive. The website is great–wish you were visiting Long Island at some point, but I guess we'll have to try and see you in NYC.
BarbMarch 26, 2009 at 12:13 am
Oh Lee, here I am sitting at my laptop far away in New Zealand. Waiting for winter. Missing my friends. And watching your video clip talking about your jewelery- it was like sitting on the beach at Slim and being funny with my dear friend… Thank you! More videos please, you look so great to me. Love,
Deborah BernsteinMarch 27, 2009 at 12:44 am
Hi Lee,
I had the pleasure of meeting Bob a few weeks ago when he was filming interviews for the "Swimming Soldiers" segment at our villa on St. John. I recently released a book, "Yoga in America" and he mentioned that you have an active yoga practice. I'd be delighted to send a copy of the book to you. I've you'd like that, please email the your mailing address to firstname.lastname@example.com. I hope you enjoy the book – it has been receiving a lot of positive reviews and proceeds from the book support our fundraising to host future trips like the one we sponsored for Wounded Warriors when Bob was on island. Kind regards and best of luck with the blog…I know it talks a little while to get it up and running, so let me know if I can help in any way. Namaste, Deborah
Molly NanceMarch 27, 2009 at 5:23 pm
I love your new patch of the Internet park, Lee. And though I'm avid reader of blogs, Web sites and a FaceBook junkie, I haven't yet made that leap to Twitter. Now I'm inspired. I'll get on board and Tweet for the troups. What an amazingly easy and fast way to make such a profound impact. I tell ya!
LauraMarch 28, 2009 at 12:40 am
Your website and blog are welcome additions to my "favorites"! I can't wait for your new book Lee; you have a beautiful way of writing. It is one that makes me feel like you are sitting next to me, talking on the porch (mine, yours or the Inn!) or a couch. Thanks for sharing your gift of writing with all of us!
becky tinlinApril 16, 2009 at 3:41 pm
i was a little disheartened when i read the number 9 in your list of tips in this issue of Ladies Home Journal. I have recently had 3 major surgeries, I lost a brother-in-law and 4 days later i lost my sister. I lived for the moments when i could connect with someone who would simply say "the peace of the Lord be with you." i knew instantly that my faith and my beliefs were truer and stronger and that my heart and spirit would heal. to not say anything that praises the Lord for His strength, His grace, His watching over me, His love, His guidance, His light in my life seems so foreign to me and to not have others share with me their love of the Lord is something I hope i never have to deal with. if not for the fellowship and the family of faith, i would not be here today to so much as read a book. I have followed the amazing journey that the Woodruff family has taken, the good, the horrible, the wonderful healing and I feel it was Because of God, despite people hiding their love and faith for fear it wont be "taken" as it was intended. God Bless you all. Good luck with your book, you are a talented writer—praise God for that.
becky tinlinApril 16, 2009 at 5:38 pm
my comment was not posted????? a simple opinion is not posted unless it is gushy and gooey????????? makes me wonder about many things here.
adminApril 18, 2009 at 11:42 pm
hang on a tick!!! wait a sec— its just me managing my website– mother of 4, loser at technology and book coming out on Tuesday– I've been on the road for the past two days taking care of my Dad with Alzheimers– and now I'm back home. Just completed a home birthday party for my nine year old twins. I'm just logging on to the website now to see what is happening and yes– every comment (unless they are very cruel or dirty) will get posted. I'm not one of those people with "handlers" to do this for me though, so please be patient with me folks!
Becky, thanks so much for taking the time to visit the site and read the Ladies Home Journal article and to have read the first book. Between this website, email, facebook and alll the other things I'm supposed to be doing Im feeling really inadequate for not getting back to you sooner.
adminApril 18, 2009 at 11:52 pm
Becky– I am reading from the bottom up so I just saw this. I have much to say about faith and in our first book, "In an Instant" it is very much laced through the pages. I don't mean to suggest that people should "hide their faith" when they talk to someone going through a difficult time or worry it might be "taken as it wasnt intended." I do urge people to say what makes them feel comfortable, but in talking to literally thousands of caregiver and people who are going through a rough time one of the most common pieces of advice I heard was the over-use of "trite" phrases– (not all necessarily laced with faith). Sometimes these canned phrases can sound like greeting card philosophy. That's very different in my book than "the peace of the Lord be with you." Im the first one to say, out loud and proud — that faith , family and friends were are still are my cornerstones, before during and after Bob's recovery. We would not be where we are today without the "three F's"
Wherever I speak publically, whenever I talk to people I am very quick to give my faith and relaitonship with God its proper due
I believe God is not in the tiny details of an awful tragedy. He doesn't decide that this particular child will die or get cancer, that your brother-in-law will pass away or give you a reason to have surgery again, for the third time– and I am so sorry about that. He is just there– loving us always and helping us to heal in amazing ways.
I hope what I have said makes some sense and Im so sorry for what you and your family have gone through. I am so glad that your faith sustains you.
BethApril 24, 2009 at 1:11 am
Hi Lee!
I'm so glad you have a website and a new book! I loved your first book (and recommend it to everyone) and was happy to see that you are still writing. Thanks for being a wonderful, funny, real, and thoughtful writer. I look forward to seeing what's next!
all my best!
PattyMay 1, 2009 at 3:48 pm
Hi Lee,
Thank you so much for coming to KC to speak. I love your book.
I just finished reading the friendship chapter and it brought tears to my eyes. I know I'm reading a great book when it makes me cry and reflect. I am taking my time reading your book because I want to savor it like a good cup of coffee. Even though I have one child not four I can still relate to your words. I also lost my Dad a month ago and the hospitalization he had is still fresh in my mind. Your writing about Bobs hospital stay hits home. I have three sisters and I will pass the book on to them after I finish.
Thank you for your honesty and compassion. Please keep writing if you can. I look forward to future books. Have a great day!!
bob from THE OLD SCHOOLMay 7, 2009 at 1:13 pm
Hi lee,
Thank you for your article on the FOX opinion Blog. it was very touching and real!.
I would like to ask you to contact FOX and request that they redesign their blog to prevent "trolls" or ID theft on the blog itself. It seems that many including myself are the victims of anoying bloggers who simply log in using the identical ID of someone allready on the blog and countradicts and slanders everyone on the blog.
All that would be needed is for FOX to eliminat duplicate ID's and since they have the ID and the email address that should be simple.
I have attempted to contact FOX directly but to no avail. this has been an increasing and anoying issue lately.
best regards and Happy Mothers Day,
bob dittmer

I'm so pleased I found your blog as I have been very curious to find out more about your family since I saw you on Oprah last year while I was recovering from my own MTBI. My father also has TBI from a quite serious accident so it was fantastic to see you on TV discussing.
I need to find out if your books are available in NZ to buy!
I truly am so pleased to see your husband has returned to work and that you are out talking about Brain Injuries – so much education needs to be done! I am sure Bob is still struggling with fatigue and memory issues as well – I would love to hear more about his return to work and the subtle difficulties. My father has said that people just don't understand that he is not what he used to be, how frustrating it is to no longer have a good memory etc etc.
God bless!
NancyMay 25, 2009 at 8:19 pm
Lee, I just finished the new book and I can't tell you how deeply it moved me. Lots of experiences of you saying things I thought only I thought. I didn't want it to end and I may start it all over again. It's been a perfect morning out on my deck alone with iced tea, your fantastic book, a sweet dog and Kenny Chesney singing in the background-ain't nothing better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for both of your wonderful books. Keep em coming, I can't wait!! Love Nancy
Debbie WootenMay 28, 2009 at 6:56 pm
Dear Lee, You & your family have been in my mind so often. I was thinking of you yesterday and when I could not sleep last night I thought I would try to find a web site for you, not knowing you really did have one. Complete with a blog! I have been able to feel alot of the same emotions that you have. My husband was diagnosed with dementia when he was 63. He is now 67. During emergency surgery in Feb. he was diagnosed with a frontal lobe tumor. You think your life is going along really well then everything can change in an instant. I feel sad lonely and unloved while trying to keep my husband on an even keel. My thoughts and prayers are with you & your entire family as each new day unfolds. Sincerely, Debbie Wooten
Lee WoodruffJune 6, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Debbie – I am so sorry for your journey and I hope the book brought you some comfort…it is a very tough journey and I wish i had the answers and a magic wand for all of the people i meet. god bless you

Lee WoodruffJune 6, 2009 at 2:15 pm
did you ever get the book– perhaps through the internet?
Mary-Katherine RogersAugust 3, 2009 at 1:55 pm
Dear Lee,
Just finished reading Perfectly Imperfect. As an oldest sister of three girls growing up in the 60's, everything you write about resonates, the last three chapters especially. I, for one, am glad you kept in #9 in What I Know Now. I am a person of enormous faith and mother of a daughter with Marfan Syndrome. When a child is first diagnosed with a potential death sentence, hearing "God never gives you more than you can handle," nearly sent me over the edge. In fact, I think God frequently does give you more than you can handle at that moment and it is up to one to just keep moving forward in faith, that EVENTUALLY, you just might be able to handle it. I agree that all of those platitudes should be stricken from the English language! Keep up all of your good works and peace to you.
Hello LeeAugust 3, 2009 at 6:33 pm
We met in Spokane Wa. a while back at a confirence put together by St. Lukes hospital. I would like to pass on some info. to you. You met with my wife as well and KXLY 4 interviewed us all. I am 2 year's 4 month's 3 days old today. Died 4 time's that day, broke my neck and face in 5 place's. Truely the hiden injury.
Thank you in advance
SusieAugust 24, 2009 at 4:51 am
Wow. Read some of your earlier blogs and here are some thoughts: 1. You are brave. I'm not referring to bob but of course that but w how honest you are in your responses to comments.
2. You are generous. You don't have to respond to peoples comments but you do. Very kind
3. I love words too. Some goofy ones I drove my family nuts w are: we drove the Yakima to winnemucca. ( a yellowstone trip)
berings. I got stuck on that word and used it constantly drove my husband mad. Concierge. Aw. No explanation needed. K.s.
ColleenAugust 25, 2009 at 3:16 am
I just would like to say thank you for giving me hope and strength through your own experience. My brother had a stroke a couple months ago which affects his word retrievel, language, cognition, etc.,. He struggles with memory but I just finished a phone call with him and he said something to me that he has been unable to say to me when we would end a phone call and I am crying tears of happiness. He said, "Love you dearly" I have not heard those words for so long. My sister-in-law and I have been staying positive after reading your story and know he can make it and so can we. Thank you
Rebecca Weber (Little Rock, ARAugust 29, 2009 at 11:38 pm
I'm reading "In an Instant" which I got while Bob was in Little Rock to speak. I recently shared it w/my niece whose huband is in the hospital from injuries suffered when a tree collapsed on him 5wks ago. Julie read it and is holding on to your experience as Frank recovers from his injuries. Anyway, now I'm reading it and came to your 1/31/2006 entry re: your arrival to D.C. You mention your friends Susan Baker and her husband, Robin, and I'm thinking, "I know these people". I worked in the Dept. of Pediatrics when Susan Brady & Robin Baker did their residencies at the Univ. of Ark. for Medical Sciences. I'm soooo enjoying the book and it was fun to come across this little "blast from the past".
Bob autographed the book for me and I'm planning to ask Frank to sign it once he's able to write again. Frank awoke just this week and while very different, he & Julie have their own "In an Instant" story to tell. May God continue to bless your family and thank you for sharing your story.

Comments to add to the list of "What Not to Say"
Hi Lee,
I spoke with you shortly, at the end of the Brain Injury Association of WA event tonight. I felt very touched by the evening, the people I met and spoke with, some of whom I met tonight, others were part of my husband's entourage of doctors and law office staff post accident.
I sent another note of thanks to your foundation's e-mail address. I remember a piece that I forgot to write in that e-mail. You invited stories about inappropriate things that people say. I believe this one tops them all. It's mine, so I get to put it on top.
My husband Bill was hit by a car while riding his bicycle home from work in the bike lane on Second AVE, downtown Seattle on October 2, 2002. I was in Santa Fe at school when I received the phone call from his sister. I returned to Seattle, Bill's dad picked me up at the airport and we drove to Harborview, Seattle's trauma center. I was asked to wait, as they were doing a procedure, I can't remember details, other than I needed to wait down the hall. His brother was in the room as well and as we proceeded down the hall to see Bill, he tells me, "now that Bill has had the test, I'll get the materials for him and get him a bible." I was very patient with him and said something very nice – but I really did want to smack the daylights out of him and invite him to get the hell out of our presence.
Let me know if this is juicy enough to add to the list. There's plenty of backstory to it too. He and his wife gave us bibles for Christmas one year. Not nice bibles, but crappy paperback ones that looked like pulp fiction. So I asked his wife, 'what is this?', in a conversational tone, thinking it was a work of fiction that she had recently enjoyed. She proceeded to describe to me what the FLIPPING bible is, as if, at 36 years old, with the name MARY flippin MARTHA, I didn't have a clue what it was. I was floored. I still am.
Best to you and your family, Lee. Please feel free to call us for a cozy place to stay in Seattle if you are visiting and would like a more personal encounter with our beautiful State. We can share really bad brain humor. That's one of the reasons I stick with my pain in the A** husband. He's wicked funny. Mary Edwards 425-271-1979 PS, you've also inspired me to write. I have always known it will help me deal and heal.
