The history of Feng shui
Feng shui is a Chinese philosophy of art and science that started over 3000 years ago. Feng shui can be translated to wind-water, and it's closely linked to Taoism.
It's much practices in architecture and interior design, as in metaphoric terms of "invisible forces". These are forces that are supposed to bind the universe, earth and humanity together –also known as qi.
Even though feng shui have existed for thousands of years, it was suppressed in China (mainland), but during the cultural revolution in the 1960s it regained the popularity we know today. Now many buildings are built in a "feng shui"-way and there are ceremonies and blessings from a feng shui master.
Feng Shui interior
In feng shui they believe that how are homes are is a reflection of how we feel inside. Feng shui helps you through the environment in your home, to come in an alignment. With who you are and where you want to be. It's a perfect way to harmonize you energy with the energy in your home.
So what do you do in your home? We have to consider what we bring into our home, how you arrange your rooms and how to maintain. In feng shui we believe that everything and every object has an energy. When everything has an energy, there is a way to guide it and let it flow in your home.
The five elements
Earth is square shapes (directions South-West, North-East), it symbolises stabilty and permanence. The colours of the earth is pale yellow, light brown, sand and beige. Objects that are earth are ceramics, stones, crystals and landscapes.
Wood is rectangles, long and high shapes (directions East, South-East). Wood benefits career prospects, motivation, creativity, growth and wealth. The colours of wood is browns and greens. Objects are wooden things, furniture, plants, pictures of trees.
Water is wavy and curved in shapes, (direction South). Water benefits career prospects, communication and opportunities. The objects that are water are mirrors, glass, fountains and sea landscape. Colours are black and blue.
Fire is triangled and peaked shapes (directions North). Fire benefits energy, passion, intelligence, recognition and fame. Colours for fire are red, orange and purple. The objects for fire are candles, light, sun and pictures of fire.
Metal is round, half-moon and domed (directions North-West, West). Metal benefits networking, transmitting energy (good and bad) and health. Colours for metal is white, gray, gold and silver. Metal are objects like swords, coins, pictures of metal.
Combine and bring it together
The goal is to combine all the elements and bring them together. This to increase the good energy in your home. There are many specific and detailed ways to make your home the ultimate feng shui-home. You don't need to follow it to every single detail, but it's a good thing to have in the back of your mind. It really makes the home more balanced.

The only way we are going to win the anti-illegal immigration battle is to go to the root of the problem: America's unconstitutional wealth-transfer system. We need to remove the incentives for people who come to the United States for a free ride. This will mean dismantling the welfare state that millions of Americans participate in and defend.
The reason many (not all) illegal immigrants are willing to break the law to enter the United States is because it's attractive to them in terms of monetary benefits. Many come for jobs and work hard at them. We want these types of immigrants, but they are often overshadowed by those who take advantage of lenient immigration policies, don't want to assimilate, and benefit from our unconstitutional and immoral wealth-transfer system called "welfare."
Islam is the wild card. There are millions of Muslims who believe it is their Allah-ordained mission to remake the world into a global caliphate by any means at their disposal. They will even use our democratic process to accomplish it as they are slowly attempting to do in the United States. Rep. Keith Ellison is a prime example. He is a nut case who has said, "If they can ban Muslims, why can't they ban Mormons?" Of course, Muslims are not being banned. But if Mormons were blowing up churches, mosques, raping, beheading, drowning, and burning Christians, and gunning down people on military bases and airports, then I would be all for a Mormon ban.
Trending: The President's Beef with Stormy Daniels SOMEHOW Got Dumber
But it's Ellison's fellow-Muslims who are doing things like the following that deserve increased vetting:
"In a recent attack, some 90 Muslims stormed a Christian church in eastern Uganda, beating and tying up the men present before raping 15 of the Christian women." (Breitbart)
There are other Muslim enablers like Nancy "Tell Them You're a Muslim" Pelosi. Mass immigration from Muslim nations could be a deathblow to our way of life. For many, the welfare state is a way to finance their objectives until they are in the ascendancy.
The great immigrant movements of the 19th and 20th centuries came about because of economic opportunities and the pursuit of social and political liberty. The welfare state was almost non-existent. The Great Society was not implemented until the mid-1960s. Since then we have seen a rise in multi-generational unemployment, fractured families, government dependency, and a solid block of voters to keep the welfare state intact. This is mostly true, in terms of percentages, of black families. It's a shame. The war on poverty has become a war on the poor, and what liberals want is more poverty programs to keep the war going.
Most people my age (I was born in 1950) are grandchildren and great-grandchildren of immigrants. I lived in a neighborhood of second-generation immigrant families: Poles, Italians, Jews, Czechs, Ukrainians, Irish, and others.
When my father returned wounded from the Korean War (he had his right leg blown off), we lived in a housing development outside of Pittsburgh that overlooked the Monongahela River that was called "The Projects." It has since been razed.
At the time, the area was a booming steel, iron, and coal center that was populated and worked by immigrants. A dozen smokestacks are all that remain as a reminder of what used to be. The Waterfront — a super-regional open-air shopping mall spanning the three boroughs of Homestead, West Homestead, and Munhall near Pittsburgh — has replaced the once burgeoning steel industry that gave Pittsburgh its nickname — the Steel City.
But it could all turn to dust like the mills turned to rust if Americans don't say no to the welfare state. If we don't, we will be overwhelmed by people who will eat our capital until there is nothing left.
We moved out of the projects when I was five. My parents purchased a house in the South Hills area of Pittsburgh with other families that were just starting out.
Illegal immigration was not an issue. Immigration was manageable because there were laws, and our nation was selective. Not everyone got in, but we knew that everyone in our neighborhood shared a common set of moral standards even though we may not have shared a common national heritage.
Everyone worked. Most people lived within their means because they knew there was no Great Society ready, willing, and able to bail them out of a financial fix by taking money from other workers. There was compulsive Social Security, of which Congress exempted itself, but almost no one saw it as the only source of retirement income.
Here's the hard part for many conservatives who are quick to blame immigrants. Modern-day immigrants did not create the welfare state. We did. Dr. Gary North writes:
"Some people think that the big problem with illegal immigrants is that they are taking advantage of the welfare rolls. I'm sure a lot of them are. Whose fault is that? It's the fault of the Anglos, who created the welfare system. It wasn't created by illegal Mexican immigrants. It began in the New Deal. It was promoted by graduates of the Ivy League universities. All of this was invented by educated people, and it was supported by grassroots Democrats who used the programs to get elected after 1930. The shock troops of the welfare state are not Mexicans. They are Anglos."
Then there's government education, the biggest welfare scam that most Americans fool themselves into believing is free. What is the predominate worldview taught in today's government schools designed by the same people that created the welfare and warfare State? Moral relativism and a bigger welfare state.
Dr. North continues with some painful truth:
"The hue and cry against illegal immigration is a hue and cry against the fact that illegal immigrants come here to take advantage of the unethical social and economic structures that have been set up by the Anglos. Anglo voters look at Hispanic immigrants, and they perceive them as weak people: welfare clients. But at least half of the American population is on the dole in one way or the other. The two biggest welfare programs in the country are Medicare and Social Security. The beneficiaries of these programs are primarily white middle-class voters who got old. The only way that these two systems can remain solvent longer is because of new workers coming into the economy. But these new workers, at the margin, are Hispanics. They are doing in the United States what immigrants out of North Africa are doing to the welfare state economies of southern Europe. They are keeping the welfare system going."
Building a wall won't fix the multiple moral and political strangleholds that are choking America by Americans. "Any conservative who gets in a dither over amnesty, but who is unwilling to eliminate the welfare state, has his priorities messed up. His ethics can be summarized in this moral axiom: 'Illegal immigrants should not have access to our loot. We stole it fair and square.'"

When looking for his friends, Jasper stumbles on to a vampire fight, a dead girl and one severly injured. He brings the injured one back and the Cullen family befriends the girl in a heart beat. But how'd she end up so injured? Who were those vampires? The girl slowly tells the story. This is Harlow's story.
2. Confusion
Rating 5/5 Word Count 1045 Review this Chapter
When we got to the house, we found everyone circled around the girl. She lay (blood free, I might add) on the hospital bed in the middle of the living room. She still had the grin on her face. The scent of her blood was still strong, but at least it wasn't pouring out of her. She wore a new purple dress, almost exactly like the one before, except with out the rips and tears.
"Isn't that odd" Carlisle said. They all seemed to be thinking about something.
"What's with the smile?" Emmett asked. Everyone fell silent with thought. It was kind of odd. She looked like she was in total happiness. Jasper had a peculiar expression across his face.
"She has the oddest emotion projecting from her. Like, pain, obviously. But it's like she's ... recalling a memory. A happy one" Jasper murmured. It was sort of odd. I remember very vividly when I got transformed, and it was not one of my happiest memories. Heck, it hurt like hell! It completely shocked me how she could be grinning like that.
As we silently thought to ourselves something happened. The once perfect face of happiness was replaced with a horror struck look. Suddenly the girl screamed out an ear piercing scream. We all jumped at the sudden scream. We didn't know what to do with ourselves. Carlisle quickly ran upstairs and came back down with some pain killers. He took the needle and plunged it into her neck. The scream seemed to get louder, not stopping for a breath. Then, she let out a huge sigh and the grin went back onto her face.
"What was that?!" Emmett burst out. We were all thinking the same thing. Then that reminded me.
"Edward, what is she thinking?" I asked. Everyone turned to Edward as he focused on the girl.
"Hmm...It's all sort of muddled. Like she's thinking about many things at once" Edward sighed.
"But what exactly?" Rosalie said. That sort of surprised me, because as far as I was concerned, Rosalie didn't want anything to do with this new girl.
"The name Evan is being repeated many times, there's screams of agony, the scent of blood..." Edward said. We all went silent.
"Well, I'm outa here" Emmett said as he walked out the door. Carlisle and Rosalie followed along with him. Edward, Alice, Jasper, Esme and I all stayed in our positions. Edward and I were silent in thought, while the rest looked troubled.
"What happened to her, that's what I wonder. She was so ... broken" Esme whimpered to herself. Then she quietly got up and left. Alice and Jasper looked the most troubled of all. Alice sat on his lap with his arms wrapped around her, their usually position. But their faces looked extremely troubled.
"The emotions projecting from her, their unreadable" Jasper mumbled to himself. Alice lovingly rubbed her hands over his hands, but her face was just as troubled.
"There are so many decisions that have to be made, I can't see that far at all" Alice said grumpily. It was sort of cute seeing Jasper and Alice annoyed together.
After one last glance at the girl, Edward went over to softly play the piano, quite a stress reliever for him, while I went over to the phone to call Jacob.
Jacob very happily agreed to let Renesmee stay over at his place while the new girl was here. I sighed as I punched in the numbers and waited while the phone rang.
"Hello?" It sounded like Billy's musky voice.
"Hi Billy, it's me, Bella"
"Oh hey Bella, how are you?"
"Good thanks, uh Billy, can I talk to Jacob?"
"Sure" I heard some ruffling, a cough.
"Hello, Bella?" Jacob's sunshine voice rang through the phone.
"Hey Jake, what's up?" I smiled.
"Everything's great here, Nessie's fine" He said.
"Can I talk to her?"
"Sure thing Bells" more shuffling and a burst of giggles. I smiled despite myself. Her peeling bell like laugh was probably my most favourite sound in the world.
"Hey Mom!!" Renesmee's voice rang through the phone.
"Hello darling! How are you and Jacob?" I said enthusiastically.
"Great, we were down at the beaches all day! The tidal pools are so cool!" And Renesmee went on about her time with Jacob. Even on the phone, the way Renesmee and Jacob spoke about each other sounded like they were talking about gods. You could even then tell that they were meant for each other, no matter how much it bugged me.
"So when am I coming home? Well, I can stay a bit longer, I think. Oh, and what about the girl?" She asked.
"I think you've got to stay there a bit longer, maybe a week or so. Renesmee, can you put Jake on?"
"Alright, bye Mommy!!"
"Bye Renesmee!" I heard more shuffling.
"What's up?" said Jake.
"Can Renesmee stay a bit longer? Like a week or something?" I asked easily.
"Of course! She can stay as long as she wants!" he said, just as I expected.
"Alright, call you later, bye!" I said as I hung up the phone.
I quietly walked over to the piano and sat beside Edward, who was playing a relaxing blues number. I snuggled my head into his shoulder.
Without Renesmee, I didn't feel totally complete. But luckily Edward filled in a lot.
"Hmm, you know, it's getting sort of crowded in here" I said slyly. He looked at me with a curious expression.
"Yes, yes. Ah, let's go to our cottage. It's not crowed at all there. No, it'll be just the two of us" I continued while wrapping my hand in his. He picked up the mood quickly and before I knew it we were in our cottage tangling ourselves together.

The residential markets in both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have continued to achieve positive outcomes, with condominium prices moving upwards by 1 to 2 per cent per quarter as expected, according to the latest Vietnam Property Market in Quarter 1 report released by Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL).
Total new supply in both cities reached nearly 20,000 units in the first quarter and 18,000 units were sold in total; an impressive figure compared to recent years. The market in the first quarter continued the uptrend witnessed in 2015, with numerous projects achieving sales rates of up to 90 per cent at launch.
In Hanoi prices have risen faster. In the primary market prices increased further, of 1 to 5 per cent quarter-on-quarter. At some completed projects, discounts of 1 to 3 per cent have been offered on remaining units.
In the secondary market, the affordable segment reported the highest growth, of 1.9 per cent quarter-on-quarter. Price increases at completed projects were reported at 1.5 per cent quarter-on-quarter, compared with 1.8 per cent at under-construction developments.
Ho Chi Minh City also saw continued high price increases in the residential segment. In the primary market, especially apartments, prices moved higher and considerably so in the mid-end segment. Marked increases were seen in Districts 2 and 4. Prices in villas/townhouses continued to rise at a fast pace, mostly led by some large-scale affordable projects in District 9.
In the secondary market, apartment prices were higher across the board, with growth of 57 per cent quarter-on-quarter recorded at an increasing number of properties. Villas/townhouses, meanwhile, saw price rises continuing but at a slower pace than in recent quarters.
2016 remains a positive year for Vietnam's real estate market with bright signs in most segments. According to Mr. Stephen Wyatt, General Director of JLL Vietnam, the property market has seen 25 years of development with various ups and downs. The market is developing and maturing at a faster rate than previously seen.
"Developers, investors, banks and government authorities are more alert to market dynamics and prudent in their actions and roles," he said. "JLL believes in strong parameters and the development of the property market in the future, and 2016, in particular, will remain a year of promising prospects despite global challenges."

After being attacked by private colleges, community colleges are mounting a defense and publishing studies that clearly outline the differences between the public and private institutions.
A debate has been raging in the world of higher education recently, after for-profit colleges launched attacks on community colleges. In the wake of the first, and much anticipated, White House Summit on Community Colleges, criticism has been circulating about the "unsavory recruitment practices" of these institutions, according to a report on Inside Higher Ed. Community colleges have also been accused of providing less-than-stellar academic quality, course availability and individual attention to students. Now, community colleges are fighting back against accusations, with a new study designed to point out the differences between these institutions and their for-profit counterparts.
Just How Similar?
The American Association of Community Colleges recently released a brief titled, "Just How Similar? Community Colleges and the For-Profit Sector." The study focuses on the fundamental differences between community and for-profit colleges that makes it difficult to compare the two types of institutions according to the criteria that have been used recently. According to a press release on PR Newswire, while the post-secondary institutions may offer a number of common programs, that tends to be where the similarities end. These institutions serve a widely different population, which results in different outcomes and success rates overall.
Some of the differences noted in this study include:
- A higher ratio of minority students at community colleges. More than half of all Hispanic students and 40% of Black, Native American and Alaskan Native students were enrolled in community colleges in 2008, according to the study results posted at the American Association of
Community colleges are under siege from for-profit colleges. Learn about the lawsuits and reports and whether the claims are fact or fiction.
For-profit colleges seem to face an uphill battle these days, both on campus and on Capitol Hill. Enrollment, which skyrocketed during the heat of the recession, is beginning to plummet. Some surveys are showing students from for-profit colleges unhappy with the education they received vs. the money they paid. Some for-profit colleges are even facing class-action suits for misleading advertising or an inability to deliver on their promises.
Perhaps it should be no surprise that these institutions are turning on their community college counterparts, releasing a recent survey conducted by Norton/Norris Inc. that found similar complaints with community colleges. The results of this survey were published on Business Wire and report that community colleges are also purportedly dealing in unsavory recruitment practices and providing low quality in terms of education. The results were released just prior to the summit on community colleges hosted by the White House earlier this month.
What the Numbers Show
The Norton/Norris survey found a lack of transparency in reporting important information like graduation rates, employment rates and pass rates on certification examinations. The survey also found:
- Community colleges are not living up to their expectations in terms of course availability, relevance of coursework and schedule flexibility.
- The colleges are not providing high quality education in their academic offerings.
- Many students leave community colleges due to family issues, lack of availability of courses and concerns about the quality of education.
Dr. Jean Norris, lead researcher on the study, told Business Wire, "At a time when community colleges are
President Obama and Dr. Jill Biden give community colleges proper credit and discuss strategies for improving the support given to these campuses at the first ever White House Summit on community colleges.
Community colleges are being hailed as the saviors of the future of America's economic and academic stronghold. However, these institutions still fight against a slew of challenges, including drop-out rates of nearly 50% and an overall perception that a community college education is less valuable than a degree from a four-year university. President Obama, along with Dr. Jill Biden, have attempted to at least address some of those challenges in the first-ever community college summit held at the White House this month.
Purpose of the Summit
This community college summit was scheduled to meet a very specific purpose, according to information found at WhiteHouse.gov. President Obama organized the gathering to bring experts together to discuss the role community colleges will play in training a competent workforce for the future. Community colleges are also imperative to help President Obama successfully reach his lofty goal of leading the world with the highest proportion of college graduates by 2020.
This website states that community colleges provide the largest portion of higher education in this country, with an enrollment of more than eight million students during the last academic year. Statistics support the fact that these institutions are in a prime position to raise the bar on workforce training in this country overall.
Dr. Jill Biden, who has taught in community colleges for 17 years, understands this concept better than anyone. That is exactly why President Obama appointed Dr. Biden to oversee the summit to determine how community colleges can become the
Have community colleges shaken their unfair reputation as being "13th" grade? A new poll shows that more Americans are seeing community colleges in a positive light.
With college graduation rates trailing today, more emphasis is being placed on community colleges as a means of assuring our country's future economic stability. A recent AP poll suggests that the majority of Americans are realizing the many benefits of a community college education, bolstering the image of these institutions as a viable alternative to four-year universities today. This poll comes at the same time the White House has launched the first ever summit on community colleges.
What the Numbers Show
According to a report on Google News, the Associated Press and Stanford University conducted a poll to find out what Americans' attitudes were toward community college. The poll found that the vast majority of Americans (71%) believe it is advantageous for some students to attend a community college, rather than a four-year institution. Nearly the same number polled agreed that an education received from a community college is "excellent" or "good."
The poll also asked whether community colleges do a good job of preparing students for a professional job after graduation. Out of the individuals polled, 62% said community colleges adequately prepare students for the work force, while 68% said that four-year universities succeed in this goal. These numbers indicate that the majority of Americans today are pleased with the education received at a two-year college, improving the image of community colleges in the world of higher education overall.
The only groups that did not find community colleges on par with other institutions were Blacks and Hispanics.
Community college students in Florida are at risk of identity theft. Learn about what private information was accidentally published on public community college websites and how students can take action to guard their identities.
A number of Florida community colleges notified faculty and students last week about a potential security leak that may leave them vulnerable to identity theft. According to a report on Wakulla.com, as many as 126,000 individuals at six Florida colleges may have found their personal information inadvertently posted on the Internet between May 29 and June 2 of this year.
The colleges have notified affected individuals that the leak occurred, but what steps should they take to protect their personal and financial records?
Who is Responsible?
A report on SC Magazine states that a glitch in the College Center for Library Information's software led to the leak. According to the CCLA website, this organization provides automated library services and electronic resources to many Florida colleges. The organization determined that the leak occurred during a software upgrade, and they were unaware of the problem until a student reported finding personal information during a Google search.
"We pride ourselves on protecting private information and deeply regret this inadvertent exposure," CCLA CEO Richard Madaus said in a statement posted on SC Magazine, as well as other news publications. Madaus added, "I apologize to those involved for any worry or inconvenience this may cause them. We will continue to enhance our technology to safeguard all of the information entrusted to us."
Who was Affected?
Six Florida colleges were included in the leak, including:
- Broward College
- Florida State College at Jacksonville
- Northwest Florida State College
- Pensacola State College
- South Florida Community College
- Tallahassee Community College
These six colleges were affected

"I made this rolling pantry because our pantry in the house is very small. It has a can dispenser at the top that i got the plans from Steve from mere mortals.which you can get here. I modified it to suit my needs, when full it holds 64 cans. It has a large "bread box" style drawer in the middle for potatoes. having 3 growing kids there is always a shortage of food storage available. :) the bottom cabinet has been divided into two shelves for cereal and other box goods. It measures 6 ft high 30 inches deep and 24 inches wide. i made the carcase out of sanded 3/4 ply. stained with Early American and finished with several coats of lacquer. the center panels for the doors are poplar with padauk, maple, and a small square of purple heart in the middle. rubbed with danish oil and sealed with lacquer. All of the trim is poplar with the Early American finish again. The can dispenser was made separately and then set into the carcase and simply tacked into place to keep it from moving around.
-- there is always room for improvement.

Very nice pantry, great build. Looks like it's pretty convenient being mobile. Nice work on the doors too.

CD Reviews
A one hit wonder -- but what a hit!
m_noland | Washington, DC United States | 12/20/2000
(3 out of 5 stars)
"Dawn Penn has a reputation as a one hit wonder -- her performance of "No, No, No" is mesmerizing, and it went to the top of the charts twice -- in the 1960s when first recorded, and then again in this 1994 remake (which appears in two different mixes on this disk). But after "No, No, No" the rest of the material is pretty undistinguished, even working with several production teams. She has a good voice, and apparently could get steady work as a backing singer, but she seems to lack the personality or charisma to really shine as a solo artist -- except on that one song. One might want to skip this disk and obtain a recording of "No, No, No" off a collection."
A treasure for anyone who enjoys reggae.
m_noland | 05/22/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)
"Between her haunting and mesmorizing voice and the wonderful melodies and lyrics, this is a fantastic collection of songs. What a shame she hasn't encountered more acclaim. This woman deserves to be as well known as Bob Marley and maybe someday she'll get her due. Until then, count yourselves lucky to partake of her incredible talents."
Soft, Mellow Reggae that has you longing for island love
m_noland | 01/07/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)
"This cd has it all. Love songs with a reggae feel and soft sensuous Dawn on top of sexy bass lines. Enough said, this CD is a Reggae classic from the first cut to the last."

Been meaning to reply to your post since you put it up, sorry it took me so long.
I really like the sound of Her Fearful Symmetry and have added it to my list of what I want to buy at the end of the month 🙂
What I've Read in December
This Month I've Read (December)
This month I have managed to read 3 books, I am very pleased with this considering it was Christmas! I try my best not to give away any major plot spoilers!
So, onto what I have read in December:
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
When Nick's wife goes missing on their 5th Wedding Anniversary, questions are asked. The blame is pointing at him. He is keeping things from the Police, and his wife's diaries are indicating not all was well within his marriage. Did Nick kill his wife? This is the major question in this book.
I had heard good things about this book, and sometimes when that happens it can be a little disappointing. I hadn't heard anything about the plot, thankfully, so I was drawn into the saga straight away. The book is split into different parts, which I think is a very clever twist. I was totally convinced I knew who had done what, and then it was completely turned onto its head: This book has twists and turns, and although I had a faint idea I knew what may happen, I kept questioning myself. I found this book to be very clever, engaging and it's a very good thriller. The ending is something I hadn't considered, and in a way, quite an eery ending. The dialogue at times can be a little corny, but if you can get over that, then you will really enjoy this psychological thriller. Can definitely see why it has had rave reviews.
Her Fearful Symmetry Audrey Niffenegger
Julia and Valentina, mirror twins, inherit a flat in London from their aunt Elspeth. The flat overlooks highgate cemetery. The problem is, they had never met her, due to an incident between their mother and her twin sister years before. They move to London to find out what mysteries lie in the past. One of the conditions of the inhertiance is that they live in the flat for a year, and their Mother, Edie, must never step foot in it. People who have been in the flat feel that Elspeth's ghost remains. Moving to London means they meet people in their Aunt's life, such as Robert, her lover who works as a guide at the cemetery, and Martin, a man with OCD upstairs. Family secrets are revealed, as well as the twins finding out more about themseleves, in the process.
I was very keen to read this book as I loved The Time Traveller's Wife. This book is totally different to that, but it is the same well written books, about modern day, with an unbelievable, suspend the thoughts of reality, twist. Just like travelling through time, you have to believe something that is completely ludicrous, and Niffenegger's skill is making you do that. The book starts a little slowly, and I felt a few chapters probably could have been missed out, especially at the beginning. The relationship of the twins is very well written, and you can feel their frustrations, their bond and their emotions. I sort of felt I knew what was going to happen, but again there was a twist in this book that I hadn't considered, or seen coming, right up until it happened. The book is full of ghosts, emotions, and the past, present and future. It is about what you want, and what you get. The ending to the book is just as haunting. I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it. A great, spooky, eery tale.
Clare Balding: My Animals and Other Family
This is a brilliant, heart-warming book. I didn't realise what a fascinating life Clare has had so far, and that her family had so many connections – including the Queen! If you've ever loved a pet, ever confided in them, ever felt they were your best friend, you will understand Clare's love for her animals and pets, and how they teach her lessons about her life, and make her realise how to be herself and get on in life. I love the way her life is mapped out through the pets she had at the time and who won the Derby or the Grand National. You can learn so much about her life through her tales, she doesn't need to spell it all out for you. It's an easy to read book, perfect for this time of year.
So that's what I read this month! I am starting off the New Year with a classic – To Kill A Mockingbird. I am also going to try and read at least 3 books every month in 2014 – what's your book reading target, if you have one?

Nanoengineering materials..., Dr. Al-Amin Dhirani, UofT
Room: 100
Department of Physics and Astronomy
Dr. Al-Amin Dhirani
Departments of Physics and Chemistry
University of Toronto
"Nanoengineering materials: A bottom-up approach towards understanding long outstanding challenges in condensed materials science"
Chemists have made tremendous advances in synthesizing a variety of nanostructures with control over their size, shape, and chemical composition. Plus, it is possible to control their assembly and to make macroscopic materials. Combined, these advances suggest an opportunity to "nanoengineer" materials i.e., controllably fabricate macroscopic materials from the nanoscale up. This affords an opportunity to realize a wide range of controlled and potentially even new behaviours.
This talk will present a variety of examples of such behaviours, such as single electron effects, metal-insulator transitions, semiconductor transistor-like conductance gating, and, most recently, strongly correlated electronic behavior. The latter is particularly exciting since strongly correlated electrons are known to lie at the heart of some of the most exotic, widely studied and still outstanding challenges in condensed matter science (e.g. high Tc superconductivity in the cuprates and others).
The talk will also survey new insights and new opportunities that arise as a result of using this nanoengineering approach, including how such materials have provided inspiration for new technologies.
STUDENTS – after the talk, you're encouraged to return to the 2nd floor Atrium lounge to meet with the speaker.
COFFEE – coffee and cookies will be available in the 2nd floor Atrium lounge at 1:15 p.m.
CELL PHONES – as a courtesy to the speaker and audience, please set your cellphones to "silent" mode. Thanks!

Siblings Willow and Jaden Smith Split Young Stars Honor at 2011 BET Awards
There was a lot of love for the Smith family at the BET Awards tonight as siblings Willow and Jaden Smith tied for the Young Stars honor at the ceremony.
The sister and brother, who were not only up against each other but also Shenelle Edmonds, Keke Palmer and Diggy Simmons, shared the honor in a tie for the award.
They hugged each other tightly as they heard their names announced and made their way up to the stage, where they were handed the trophies by actors Tracee Ellis Ross and Malcolm-Jamal Warner.
"I wanna say thank you to BET for giving us this award and to all of our fans," said Jaden.
Willow then acknowledged their parents, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, who were in the audience. "I'd like to thank my mom and dad for letting us push harder and keeping us on track with our music and stuff," she said.

Former Kentucky first lady Martha Wilkinson, who championed efforts to reduce adult illiteracy and ran a brief campaign to succeed her husband as governor, has died. She was 72.
Her husband, Wallace Wilkinson, was governor from 1987 to 1991.
Doug Alexander, his spokesman during his administration, says Martha Wilkinson died Wednesday at a hospital in Florida.
During his term, voters approved a state lottery and lawmakers overhauled public schools.
Wallace Wilkinson failed to get a measure on the ballot allowing himself and other constitutional officers at the time to run for a second term. Martha Wilkinson ran a brief campaign for governor herself, promising to continue her husband's policies.
The Wilkinsons married in 1960.
Her husband became a millionaire businessman, only to see his business empire collapse in bankruptcy.
Wallace Wilkinson died in 2002.

On Monday, November 5th, 2012, El País published an article about the problems of the new Dutch coalition cabinet (composed of liberals and social democrats), under the title El Gobierno de centroizquierda holandés se estrena con un alza de costes sanitarios (The Dutch centre-left Government makes its debut with a rise in sanitary costs). In the second paragraph is written the following (translated as accurate as possible, between quotation marks):
"The last Dutch centre-right government (in minority), headed by [Mark] Rutte himself, had to hand over the demands made by the xenophobic leader, Geert Wilders, in exchange of his support in the Parliament, and aligning himself with Israel. That produced moments of major embarrasment for a country which has boasted about its tolerance. At the beginning of this year, for example, the Netherlands were the only E.U. member which rejected to address a report concerning the violence perpetrated by Israeli settlers against Palestinian civilians."
One could ask Isabel Ferrer, the author of the article and El País' correspondet to The Hague, why being aligned with Israel prevents a sovereign State like the Netherlands to be still considered a tolerant country; specially when an A.D.L. report published in March 2012 shows that Spain is less tolerant than the Netherlands towards Jews by almost all indicators, as well as the most intolerant country (when compared to Poland, Russia, Germany, France, the U.K. and the United States) towards Jews and muslims, according to a Pew Research Center report published in 2008.

International Youth Diabetes Leaders Share Best Practices
MILLVILLE, PA – On October 6, 2005, youth representatives from diabetes camps throughout the world gathered at Camp Victory for the DCA's "Camp Depot", a four-day conference for staff serving children, teens and families affected by diabetes. Over 90 youth leaders traveled to participate from Brazil, England, Spain, Mexico, Bermuda, Ecuador, Puerto Rico, Canada and many regions of the United States.
In the wake of AYUDA Inc.'s Campo Amigo Ecuador '05, a weeklong camp for Ecuadorian youth with diabetes, Camp Depot, orchestrated by the Diabetes Camping Association, AYUDA Inc., and Setebaid Services, was held at Camp Victory, host site for the Harrisburg Diabetic Youth Camp, an annual summer event for more than 80 children from the surrounding area.
"This international exchange occurs at a time when issues of health care and global responsibility are increasingly critical. Meeting the challenges faced by youth with diabetes requires increased collaboration within the diabetes community and an expansion of volunteers' roles in building this community throughout the world" said Jesse Fuchs-Simon, President of AYUDA Inc.
The Keynote speech entitled "The Foundations of Leadership" featuring Chris, Thurber, PHD promoted the value of the diabetes camping experience for youth. Dennis Wolff, guest speaker, and Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture spoke of the importance of the camp experience for children with disabilities. In addition to having the opportunity to listen to medical and camping professionals speak, the conference featured discussions as well as breakout sessions, which allowed participants the opportunity to exchange ideas on relevant topics and network with other diabetes camp organizers from around the world
Mark Barone, Asociacion Diabetes Juvenil, ADJ representative, added, "Camp Depot has been an incredible learning experience and I will bring many new tools and ideas from Pennsylvania back to help improve my program in Brazil."
AYUDA has provided support to diabetes communities throughout the Americas for more than 12 years. Campo Depot marks the third annual international diabetes conference supported by AYUDA. In the coming year AYUDA plans to expand its services into Belize.

Career Advice
Cover Letter Tips
Too many people approach their job searches from the perspective of their own needs. They need a job, they need to make more money, they need flexible working hours and benefits. This is not the way to get a job. In fact, this "me-too" method of job seeking is unlikely to get you anywhere.
Why You Should Use Association Websites in Your Job Search
In this article Harrison discusses the importance of using association websites in your job search. One of the best places to track down jobs which (1) few people know about and (2) you stand good odds of getting an interview if you apply, is association websites. Associations are not experts in advertising themselves, and so the jobs on their websites are far less likely to be found by people looking for jobs online. The people you are competing with in the job market generally are not researching association websites for job opportunities and leads. Employers typically like posting jobs on association sites because applicants from association sites tend to be serious about their profession. If you are in the job market, using association sites for research is highly recommended.

The Power of the Positive
If you can believe something, it is quite possible that you can achieve it. All of your expectations begin in your mind, so you must think highly of yourself in order to do well. Believe religiously in your strengths, your abilities, and the strength of the market. Do not listen to negative influences or surround yourself with negative people, as you will find the happiness and success you seek in a positive place.
You Need to Delay Gratification
In this article Harrison explains how long-term enjoyment of life requires that we delay gratification until a later time. The most successful people in the world show the ability to delay gratification. Failure is the result of not delaying gratification. Not facing problems is something related to our ability to delay gratification. One of the most important things we can do is to confront a problem early. Ignoring problems is a simple expression of the unwillingness to delay gratification. Our problems will not disappear. The problems that we need to confront are a barrier to our future growth. It is in your best interest to delay gratification. The people who delay gratification are found to experience the most success in their careers and lives.
How to Be a Good Manager
When a company can no longer survive, all of its jobs disappear; a good manager's job, then, is to ensure the company's survival. As a good manager, you need to truly be on the side of the company and dedicated to its continuance; the more the company succeeds, the more you will grow along with it. Good managers care about what happens to their organization, but the best managers focus continually on the organization's progress and best interests.
Seek Substance and Not Style
Bad people and influences surround you, and try to influence you to become like them. Do not be seduced by people who are beneath you, but instead people who are better than you and who will help you develop an awareness of your own strengths. Seek substance in your jobs, relationships, and free-time activities.

The Butterfly Effect, Pacifiers, and Interconnectedness
Everything is the universe is connected, and nothing exists completely independently. Since all people are connected by their actions, you can accomplish nothing without others. Do not resist this universal law of interconnectedness, and avoid the unhappiness that comes from the belief that you are separate from others. Connection is a universal law, and one with which you need to act in accordance.
Your Job Is a Game-Make Your Opponents External
In this article Harrison explains how you can ensure success in your career by externalizing your opponents. Your job is like a game; if you work hard, play by the rules of the company and are seen as part of the team you will be viewed as a valuable player for the company. The most significant part of any game is the presence of an opponent. Don't look for an opponent among your co-workers. Never speak negatively of your team members. Instead, concentrate on the external opponents. External opponents bring you and the team closer as you work towards a common goal. In order for you and your company to succeed it is important to have an external opponent. Harrison advises people to consistently work hard and not participate in the politics. This is a sure way to score big in your career.
Finish What You Start
People with meaningful lives finish what they start; this says a lot about their character, and leaves a lasting impression on those around them. Completing the tasks you are assigned will make you the kind of person that companies retain year after year, and will help you better assess your capabilities. You must be accountable for finishing what you start, and you can do so by putting your mind to it. When you always finish what you start, you will find yourself performing at your absolute best.
How to Talk about Other Interviews in Your Interviews
Employers sometimes ask in the course of an interview about other interview you may have had, and how you handle this question can determine your success. You must convince your current interviewing employer that their position is your first choice before divulging any information about other interviews, and be careful how you justify your other interview to your prospective employer. You must convince your current interviewing employer that you consider their position to be your best fit, and would most help you meet your career goals of upward mobility.
You Need to Offer Hope
In his article, Harrison talks about how hope is the element central to most of our circumstances. We may buy medicines to heal a particular physical problem, but what we are actually buying is hope; the hope that we will get better after using that medicine. It works in much the same way for job seekers and recruiters as well. When you present your credentials to a prospective employer, you offer hope in the form of your qualifications and experience. Harrison says it is important to convey hope in a job interview, because eventually it is only hope that the recruiter will use as a benchmark when choosing one candidate over another. Depending on how you see it, you as a job seeker can offer the recruiter a definite hope to improve his or her situation.
Managers, Idea People, and Workers
You, like everyone else, are naturally disposed to be either a dreamer, a manager, or a worker. Consequently, your happiness and success depends on whether you are doing the work that is suitable to your disposition; you may not be reaching your full potential in you are in the wrong role. Your success in both career and life depends largely on your ability to honor your nature.

Do Not Ever Be Afraid to Broadcast Your Value
You need to constantly broadcast your value in your current job; make sure that your bosses are aware of what you are doing and the value you are providing them. Your supervisor or potential employer wants to know what you bring to their organization. In order to accomplish this, work behind the scenes and make sure your boss is aware of everything you do!
Sick Crows, Your Attitude, and Being on the Winning Team
Adopting a positive attitude will always bring you closer to success, as nobody wants to be associated with a losing side. Everyone wants to associate with and hire winners, and avoids losers. Nothing is more important than maintaining a positive attitude, as many employers hire people based primarily on attitude; with the right attitude, everything else will fall into place. You must look like you are on the winning team, even if times are tough; nobody wants to hire a loser.

Anthony Robbins, Work, Jobs, Careers, and Missions
In this article Harrison discusses that you absolutely and positively need a mission and it is going to change your life. When you find something you are good at, and approach it like a mission, everything changes. A mission is much more powerful than being good at lots of things. Employers want to hire people on a mission. Your career needs to be a mission. This is the most important career advice you will ever receive. The highest state of work is when you are on a mission. The difference between having a job, or career and having a mission is huge. A mission will propel you forward. A mission will bring you everything you ever wanted. A mission will open up opportunities and will transform your life and career. There is nothing more important than a mission. You need to be on a mission.
Bad Dancing, Submitting, and Surrendering
You must surrender to your profession, doing work with which you are comfortable and in which you are interested. Conversely, you have submitted to a job in which you are uncomfortable and which does not conform to your values; nobody thrives in such a situation, and such a job is unlikely to advance your career. When you hold your profession in high esteem, however, there is no need to resist your job and you can easily surrender to it.

In these intolerant times, this E-book by Eric Garner can make us smile due to its accuracy and wisdom. Each quote, part of this book, offers its readers essential learning to skillfully manage people. In this collection, you'll find about 500 quotes...
Feral Children, Puzzles, Jews, and Filters
The quality of your life is not determined by your job, city, or lifestyle, but rather by the filters through which you experience these things. These filters shape everything in your life, and influence your life and career for better or worse. How you use these filters are the most important factors in your decision making; develop filters that empower rather than limit your experience, and you will unlock the secret to a successful like and career.
Find the Best Target Audience for Your Skills
There are people in your life, just as in everyone else's, who do not appreciate your talents and will seek to undermine you. You must avoid situations that place you among these kinds of people, and instead find colleagues who recognize and appreciate your efforts. Your work environment will do much to either motivate or de-motivate you, so make sure to find one that recognizes your talents.
Man Perms, Famous Authors and the Importance of Being Heard
When I was in eighth grade, my parents decided to transfer me to a very exclusive private school.
They were not just alarmed that some of the kids in the public school I was attending were already smoking and having sex –but that some of the boys...
Specialize, Be Seen and Associate with Greatness
Not too long ago, I was spending the afternoon with a man who had sold a company for $850 million that he had founded. His home was perched on a cliff over the ocean in Malibu – sort of like Tony Stark's home in the Iron Man movies. Very few people...
Groups and Their Norms Determine the Outcome of Our Lives
One of the most important aspects of the people around you is their definition of the "norm"; norms of acceptable behavior exist everywhere. Your own definitions of normal and acceptable will determine your success in life, as will those of the groups with whom you interact. Develop an understanding of the norms for the many groups in your life.
How to Choose a Recruiter Based on Recruiting Style
Recruiters use a variety of approaches, each of which has its merits; the best recruiters, however, use a combination of established methods. You need to work with a recruiter who understands these various methods, and supports your job search on multiple fronts. Exceptional recruiters are even more valuable in a bad job market, as their approach or combination of approaches will make the difference in whether or not you find employment.
The Magic Story
Frederic Van Rensselaer Dey's The Magic Story first appeared in 1990 and created an immediate sensation worldwide. The book is in two parts and the author has remarkably woven the fundamental principles of the 'New Thought Movement',...
Lessons of Stars: How to Be a Star in Your Life and Career
When Cameron Diaz first moved to Hollywood she very quickly became one of the most popular people in town. Everyone knew who she was: she was well-liked, popular and someone people were talking about and wanted to know and be friends with.

Froth, Downward Wages, and the Importance of Repeat Business
When you give your employer a good value, they will be motivated to keep you even in the lean times. Nothing is more important to your career than making sure your employer is satisfied with your work, which will make them likely to use you over and over again. Working for companies where there is a lot of froth will present you with more money-making opportunities; understand that froth moves in cycles, however, and it is more important to have consistent work than to hold out for ideal market conditions.
Your Life Is Controlled by Your Decisions and Your Commitment to Them
In this article Harrison discusses how your life is controlled by your decisions and your commitment to them. You have the power to choose in your life, and your decisions shape your entire existence. You need to choose to make empowering decisions in your life and your career. You need to make a commitment to back up your decision. People who achieve the most are those people who make decisions and then proceed to follow through with them. There is so much power in making decisions and making these decisions with commitment. If you do not make decisions about your life and stand behind them, your life will be made and shaped by someone else. Do not let others and the world decide what happens to you. Decide what you want for your life and commit to those decisions today.
Share What You Know
Information is the most important thing you can possess; the more you share information with your colleagues, the more they in turn will share information with you. Never try to protect information, but share it freely lest others move away from you in favor of others more giving with their information. When you withhold information from others, you inhibit your own growth; the more you share, the more others will reciprocate.
Colonic Hydrotherapy and the Need for Variety
Although many people claim to seek a state of peace, all people fundamentally seek variety in their lives and pursue it in different ways. People must satisfy this need for variety in order to be happy, and seek out new experiences and situations in which they face tension. Maintaining a healthy variety in your own life, therefore, is key to your happiness and success; doing so will replace boredom and stagnation with growth.
The Way to Power
L. W. Rogers's Self-Development and the Way to Power is a marvelously inspiring book that speaks of happiness as a product of wisdom. Rogers states that a person is either a slave of nature or a master of its law. He believes that suffering is unnatural and an imposed negativity. Everyone is supposed to be happy and hence we must discover our innermost powers and develop them in order to live a healthier, wealthier, and happier life. This book contains a strong message and can benefit you immensely. It is my pleasure to be sharing it with you.
How to Make Any Change You Want
When I was around 14 years old, I spent several months going to a public high school on the outskirts of Detroit. Within a short time, I met a couple of kids I liked. These kids had all been using "snuff"or chewing tobacco for years.
Appreciate Those around You
It is important to appreciate the contributions of those around you. Many people do not appreciate the good things that others do around them. It is rare for people to offer help in any situation, and even rarer for that person to be appreciated for their contributions. The more you appreciate the help that you have received, the more help will come your way.
To-Do Lists, Tactics, Strategies, and Going to the Moon
No organization or person will succeed for long without a strategy; be part of a company with a strategic objective. Furthermore, you must develop your own overall strategic objectives for you life and career. Create daily to-do lists that will bring you closer to your goals; such tools keep you focused and enable you to accomplish far more than those without a strategy.
What Makes You Unique?
In this article Harrison discusses that how we choose to define our uniqueness largely determines the direction that our lives take. People have an innate need to feel as if they have a unique identity and are making a unique contribution to the world. You need to make sure that you are basing your feelings of importance on something positive. Harrison is of the opinion that what makes you unique should be related to what you do for a living and should help you advance in your career. We have a natural instinct to choose some defensible characteristic of uniqueness and importance. You undoubtedly have some characteristic that you feel makes you unique. Make sure this (1) is a positive trait, and (2) helps you advance in your career.

Good Samaritans and Community Heroes will have law on their side
Good Samaritans and community heroes will have the law on their side in future, Justice Secretary Chris Grayling announced today.
The move is designed to bring some common sense back to Britain's health and safety culture.
The government is taking action to support the millions of people who volunteer and carry out good deeds every year. An important part of this is to make sure they are not put off from participating by worries about risk and liability if something goes wrong.
It's also bringing forward measures that will put the law more clearly on the side of employers who do the right thing to protect employees if something does go wrong through no fault of their own.
Changes are being made to counteract the growing perception that people risk being successfully sued if they do something for the common good – like leading a school trip, organising a village fete, clearing snow from a path in front of their home or helping in an emergency situation.
The measures will also provide greater protection to small business owners who face challenges from irresponsible employees even if they have taken a responsible approach to safety training and procedures.
To make sure everyday heroes are protected, the law will be changed so that judges will have to give weight to three additional factors when deciding negligence cases.
They are:
If the person was doing something for "the benefit of society" –to give weight to the fact people were doing a good deed like volunteering, running an event or trip, or helping out by clearing snow. If they had been acting in a "generally responsible way" – to make sure the court will give consideration to the fact people may have taken care when organising an activity but an accident has happened. If they were "acting in emergency" – if they stepped in to help someone in danger but something went wrong.
Justice Secretary Chris Grayling:
I don't want us to be a society where people feel that they can't do the right thing for fear of breaking regulations or becoming liable if something goes wrong. I don't want us to be a society where a responsible employer gets the blame for someone doing something stupid. I want a society where common sense is the order of the day, and I believe this measure will help us get there.
The law changes will be made in new legislation. They are expected to come into effect next year.
Notes to Editors
The proposed changes to the law would make sure the courts take into account the context of an incident if a negligence case is brought. They would not prohibit cases from being brought, in order to ensure that people can still seek justice if they have fallen victim to an accident caused by genuine negligence. The changes follow on from ongoing work by the Government to tackle the growth of compensation culture. Major reforms have already begun to bring down high insurance premiums which have been blamed for making it to expensive to run a car or organise an event. The new law changes could have a further impact on insurance premiums by reducing the amounts insurance companies expect to make in payouts and allowing them to pass on savings to their customers. In February 2012, the Prime Minister David Cameron pledged action to tackle high insurance premiums following a summit with the insurance industry, where insurers committed to pass on savings to their customers.
Since then the Ministry of Justice has:
Transformed no win, no fee deals so lawyers can no longer double their fees if they win, at the expense of defendants and their insurers. Banned "referral fees" paid between lawyers, insurers, claims firms and others for profitable claims – which have driven the growth of compensation culture. Reduced by more than half the fees lawyers can charge insurers for processing basic, uncontested claims for compensation for minor injuries suffered in road accidents – from £1,200 to £500. Banned claims management companies from offering cash incentives or gifts to people who bring them claims. Recommend a friend deals also banned, along with contracts agreed only over the phone. Changed the law so that regulated companies which breach Claims Management Regulation Unit rules can be fined (as well as the existing sanctions of being suspended of closed down). We have recently consulted on the level of the fines – which are proposed at up to 20 per cent of the annual turnover of companies – for offences including using information gathered by unsolicited calls and texts, providing bad services or wasting time and money by making spurious or unsubstantiated claims. This will mean fines of hundreds of thousands of pounds, and potentially millions in some cases.
