Then she closed the book of dreams and locked it tight
And with dragon breath the key was burnt away
Now the fairy of my soul has died tonight
And I've dreamt my final dream is all she'll say
When you walked away from me the magic died
And she closed the book of dreams and locked it tight
So now all that's left to me is "run and hide"
I can't see there'll ever be another light
All my life I've had her dreams safe in my sight
But my fairy and her dragon are no more
Now she's closed the book of dreams and locked it tight
And my soul is left expiring on the floor
There's such hardship in a life without a dream
And the spark I thought was me has died of fright
When you walked I wonder if you heard my scream
As you slammed my book of dreams and locked it tight
Author notes
Looking closely at the beautiful picture
BOOK OF DREAMS by=manips-of-artist2
You will see the book is finished, that is the back cover. Hence the poem …
Oh the form, well it is sort of based on a Quatern, but they have 8 syllable lines and the repeating line should be more exactly repeated (small variations are allowed and expected). Here I just picked a meter I liked and went with that, changing the line just enough for each stanza.
You may find the meter a little awkward, try reading it like this …
Then she CLOSED | the book of DREAMS | and locked it TIGHT
Just three stresses on each line

Welcome to Friday Food Fight, where two recipes duke it out to become my supper.
This week's contenders:
GARLIC BEEF AND ASPARAGUS STRI-FRY: Stir-fries are always my go-to meal. It's what I make when I don't want to think about it too much, and it always comes out tasty. It's a great way to use up your produce at the end of the week.
*Mum's tip: this recipe calls for a hoisin sauce marinade, but another great option is to mix your own marinade. Use some sesame oil, crushed garlic, soya sauce, oyster sauce and a touch of maple syrup. (This mix has been tested to perfection!)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable or peanut oil
- 1 pound flank steak, cut against the grain into
- 1/4-inch-thick slices
- 1/2 cup Soy Vay Hoisin Garlic Sauce and Marinade
- 1 pound asparagus, ends removed and cut into 1-inch lengths
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup roasted, unsalted cashews
In a medium bowl, combine the flank steak and 2 tablespoons of the Hoisin Garlic sauce. Allow the steak to marinate for 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature.
Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the flank steak and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until mostly brown but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
Add the asparagus to the wok. Stir-fry for about 1 minute, then add 1/2 cup water and cover with a lid. Allow the asparagus to steam for another 1 to 2 minutes until tender-crisp and the water is gone.
Return the beef to the wok. Add the remaining amount of hoisin garlic sauce and stir until everything is well-mixed and the beef is cooked through, about 1 minute more. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir in the cashews. Transfer to a serving dish and serve with rice or noodles.

BEAN & QUINOA TACOS: A fun twist on taco night! Here's another way of using your produce at the end of the week. And adding quinoa to the taco mix gives it a really nice texture and taste and adds a healthy element to your meal.
*Mum's tip: try making your own salsa (this pineapple mango salsa is super yummy!) or guacamole.
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 red pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 green pepper seeded and chopped
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 ½ cups cooked quinoa
- 1 cup cooked pinto beans
- 1 cup cooked black beans
- 15 ounces tomato sauce
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼- ½ teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 12 organic taco shells
- 3 cups lettuce, shredded
- ½ cup grape tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup shredded cheddar
- Sour cream, salsa and/or guacamole, optional
Spray a large skillet with olive oil. Add onion and peppers and cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Add garlic and cook for one minute longer. Stir in quinoa, pinto beans, black beans, tomato sauce, taco seasoning, smoked paprika and chipotle chili powder. Bring to a simmer and then reduce heat to medium low. Cook for 15 minutes. Stir in lime juice.
Meanwhile, heat taco shells according to package directions. Spoon bean mixture into taco shells and top with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and other toppings as desired.
Recipe courtesy of Cooking Quinoa.
*VERDICT*: I'm feeling a little creative and want to build my own meal, so I think I'll make some tacos tonight! I'll give that mango salsa a try as well!
What are you making for supper? Tweet me @warriorrenaud, or use the hashtag #fridayfoodfight.

Well.. I have never been as proud of this year 2 class as I was throughout our residential to Castleton.
We worked together, supporting, encouraging and inspiring each other for the whole two days.
The activities were really challenging but we were able to complete each one, even the hike to the top of Lose Hill, because of our determination and resilience.
We truly have such kind, funny, friendly and helpful learners in year 2. An incredible experience!

Are you more unhappy than happy at work? If so, you're not alone. According to a study by the Conference Board, more than half of Americans are dissatisfied with their jobs. This is the lowest level ever recorded by the Conference Board in more than 20 years of studying job satisfaction.
Research by Lancaster University found that people with low job satisfaction experienced more emotional burnout, reduced self-esteem, anxiety, and depression—all of which, when chronically experienced, can weaken the immune system and increase the risk of physical illness. Emotional and physical costs are not the only price of job dissatisfaction. Lancaster's study showed that depression and anxiety are the most common reasons that people claim long-term sickness benefits.
If so many people experience dissatisfaction, what holds them back from pursuing work that's more fulfilling? In my many years of coaching—which include both good and bad economic times—the majority of clients identify fear as the number one barrier to making a major life change, including pursuing a new job or their own business. Some of the most common fears include:
Financial destitution
Loss of image and prestige
Inability to find a new job
No one will buy the product or service
Others' disapproval or perception of them as selfish
Inability to generate their current level of income
While the shrunken job market is a reality, many of people's fears are exacerbated by self-limiting beliefs that cause them to ruminate on worst-case scenarios at the prospect of any type of life change. These learned patterns are very powerful. In fact, for many people, they are the number one driver of the choices they make and the results they produce. And yet, because most people are not even aware of them, they remain powerless to free themselves from their paralyzing grip.
With the right resources and an effective process, clarifying your ideal work—and developing an action plan for bringing it to fruition—is the easiest part. For most people, what presents the greatest challenge is overriding the self-limiting, habitual patterns that career transition books typically fail to cover, and which most career counselors and coaches lack the psychological training to effectively address.
Yet another factor that keeps people stuck in dissatisfying jobs is failure to align all parts of themselves with their new career or business vision. Each of us is a complex being with many different parts, each of which has its own needs, feelings, and agendas. For example, there may be a part of you that places a high value on a steady paycheck and another part that longs for the freedom of having your own business. There may be a part that's highly career driven, and another part that wants to work part-time (or not at all) to spend more time with your child. Not only do these different parts create a lot of internal conflict and stress, fighting a continuous inner battle consumes your precious life energy and keeps you stuck in your status quo.
Just as it's critical to get all members of a team to work collaboratively toward a shared goal, an important component to making a successful transition into a job or business you love is to work with the different parts of you to achieve inner cohesion. Take time to identify the various parts, explore each one's needs and concerns, and develop an effective game plan to resolve inner conflicts. Creating inner alignment will help you to harness your energy and move into action to create the professional life to which you aspire.

Shortly after we launched Pottermore.com, alongside the new ecommerce business. It's an online experience for Harry Potter fans that complements the ebooks, a content, community and interactive experience site.
The physical books sold 450m copies – it's the largest selling book series of all time and there is still a very healthy run rate of those sales in physical copies, clearly there's a lot of harry potter readers and fans out there, and a lot with digital readers, devices for reading books. The bulk of sales are in the US. Approaching 30% of book market is now digital there, while the UK is a bit behind that and elsewhere in Europe further behind again.
Pottermore is a social network in itself to an extent but our audience is out in other places. We have a very active social media strategy. We have a very broad audience that stretches from 8 to 80 – because of that we're very mindful of what we do in the social media space.

Following a junior career in Saskatchewan, Meissner signed a free-agent contract with the expansion North Stars in the summer of 1967. He played in one game with the team that year, picking up a minor penalty. He spent the rest of the season with the affiliate Memphis South Stars of the CPHL where he had 15 goals and 39 points in 64 games.
Meissner's best year as a pro came in 1968-69 when he scored 27 goals and 53 points for the South Stars in 67 games. He was also called up to Minnesota for five games where he recorded one assist. His final NHL totals were six games played with one assist.
Despite not returning to the NHL, Meissner continued to play professional hockey for another five years. In 1969-70 he suited up for the Iowa Stars of the CHL before moving on to the Cleveland Barons of the AHL the next year. In 1971-72 he divided his time between the Seattle Totems of the WHL, the Omaha Knights of the CHL and the Barons.
Meissner played his final pro season in 1972-73 with the Cleveland Barons, who moved to Jacksonville during the year. In 68 games he collected 20 goals and 45 points.
Meissner's older brother Dick played for the Boston Bruins and the New York Rangers in the 1960s. He is also the uncle of Landon Wilson and in-law of Rick Wilson, both of whom also have played in the NHL.

There's been a dilemma at my house this week. Every time I step out the door and need to take a bevy of children to lacrosse practice or Costco or wherever else our daily adventures lead, I'm faced with a choice between two vehicles:
A 2004 Chevy Tahoe or a 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser.
Only the Toyota is mine. The Tahoe is on loan for the week. Both offer room for five kids and two adults (three of the kids are, like the Tahoe, on loan for the week) with just enough room to spare for some practice equipment and changes of clothes.
Neither SUV offers the cutting-edge technology or panache of modern versions of the Tahoe and Land Cruiser, but their affordability and work-a-holic attitudes make either one a solid choice for a buyer who needs a full-size SUV but has the budget for a used Civic.
The Tahoe and Land Cruiser both have a reputation for running forever. There are over 650,000 combined miles on the two rigs parked in my driveway. The Tahoe has a staggering 370,000, and the Land Cruiser a comparatively few 287,000. I'd trust either of them on a cross-country road trip.
The Land Cruiser feels more solid to drive and is the SUV I'd trust to keep my family safe in any weather conditions.
The Tahoe tends to feel a bit floaty behind the wheel, but its seats are more comfortable and better suited for long trips.
While all Land Cruisers come standard with 4-wheel drive and enough off-road chops to handle any adventure anywhere in the world, shoppers need to be wary of Tahoes, because they come standard with rear-wheel drive. That could come as quite a surprise to a buyer who doesn't look for the 4WD controls until the snow flies.
Both utes offer about 100 cubic feet of cargo space with all seats down, but the Tahoe can out-pull the Land Cruiser with a towing capacity between 7,400 and 7,700 pounds. The Toyota is rated for 6,500 pounds.
Used Tahoes that are more than a decade old can easily be found for less than $8,000. Cars like my nearly two-decade-old Land Cruiser can be had for under $6,000.
For $8,000, would you buy a used Tahoe, Land Cruiser, or another full-size family SUV?

I tried. I failed on the outcome I had in mind. It looks pretty decent though, but not how I wanted. I was going for the "candy cane" look, but came out with "peppermints." Also, only one nail (middle finger) came out nice, & not pink looking. Lol. I stopped after one hand. I shall try again sooner or later. Happy Christmas Eve!
|Salsa & Snow White
I used Sation Snow White as the base color & marbled with China Glaze Salsa & Sation Snow White. If only they all turned out like my middle finger.

Just about everyone owns a cell phone these days, including some young children and teens. Cell phones are all made differently and some can have problems that cause painful injuries you would never expect!
Recently, a 13-year-old girl living in Chicago with her family, contracted second degree burns from using her cell phone. Gabbie was given a T-Mobile LG d500 phone for Christmas and one day while she was using it, her mom Jackie heard screams coming from upstairs. When she got to Gabbie she saw that the phone had burned her neck badly.
Apparently, Gabbie was using her cell phone while it was plugged into the charger connected to a wall outlet. The charger came into contact with the necklace she was wearing and transmitted an electrical current around her neck, which severely burned her.
"She came running downstairs after it happened grabbing her neck," Jackie said. "She was in so much pain she was screaming hysterically."
In most cases, injuries from cell phones come from the lithium ion batteries overheating, so this was a rare case.
Gabbie's phone was purchased brand new from a T-Mobile store and Jackie contacted both LG and T-Mobile about the situation. With no response from LG, T-Mobile offered to pay for Gabbie's medical bills from the incident, along with providing her with a new phone. They also asked for Jackie to send them the defected phone back to the store for testing.
Jackie has taken to social media to tell Gabbie's story and warn others of the potential dangers that could occur in a similar situation. She hopes it will encourage others to use extra caution when using their cellular devices.
SHARE this story with your friends and family on Facebook to spread the word.

The Callander Weekend
Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd August 2010
The Saturday Run
Twenty one people in twelve cars assembled at Tescos in South Queensferry for the start of the days run to Callander. Actually we all seemed to assemble in the burger isle in the shop gathering up essential provisions for the BBQ and social evening. We also had a well travelled group for this run and that was before it even started. With two cars coming all the way from the Yorkshire Ridings Area to partake of some great driving roads and Scottish hospitality, Sue, Lindy and Neill were not to be disappointed on either count. Also joining us for their first ever run were, Mary & Davy, Dennis and John, we hope you all had an enjoyable day.
We were heading to Callander, 40 miles and 45 minutes that should do it. Wrong, remember this is an MX-5 run we never take the direct route, more like 130 miles and around 5 hours, of course this did include a lunch stop. With burgers packed it was time to head off, the first cultural view for our English guests was the two Forth Bridges, this wonder of the world was also being admired from a huge cruise ship anchored below.
We wound our way along the back roads of the Kingdom of Fife, through Auchtertool, Auchterderran, Kinglassie and Leslie before descending down into the very picturesque town of Falkland. Passing by the
Falkland Palace
in tight formation we made a great spectacle, the tourists could only watch and admire our sleek machines gliding by.
Having judged the pace of the days group it was time to head for some more interesting fun roads, following a blast up to Strathmiglo and a few miles west along the A91 we found them. The road to Dunning via Path of Condie with its hairpin bends, was entertaining, the horse riders certainly thought so and became very excited as we passed. We were joined by Richard at this point when in stealth mode he surprised the back marker, slipping expertly into the pack. Onwards we went through Auchterarder and over the river Earn at Kinkell Bridge to Crieff for lunch.
The Famous Grouse Experience
we all parked beside the giant bird and then eagerly headed towards the restaurant for some well earned sustenance. All the food looked good but the delicious haggis, neeps and tatties with the whisky sauce was a fitting choice for this establishment and enjoyed by many.
After lunch it was time for the best part of the run, The Sma Glen and Glen Quaich. With the purple heather in bloom and the sun shining, conditions were perfect to enjoy one of the best roads in Scotland.
For some it was their first time on this particular road and they were blown away by the hairpin bends and the fantastic views. The run ended in Callander in time to hit the off licence, book into our accommodation and get ready for the evenings entertainment.
The Saturday Evening
In time honoured tradition we all assembled in the marquee and enjoyed a few pre BBQ drinks along with the normal jovial banter. Meanwhile our host and head chef Richard was busy sweating over the hot BBQ preparing lots of scrummy food for us all to devour. For the first time in many years our resident entertainer Sandy was unable to attend, this did present a bit of a dilemma as this weekend has always had a musical element. We wondered if Sandys apprentice could step up to the mark as he had been shadowing him for many years and should know all his songs by now, unfortunately this was not to be as the only song he knows all the words to was Alice. After much debate Maria came to our rescue, she knew a very talented singer who would be happy to come along and entertain us for the evening.
Enter Ian Scott, Ian an ex history teacher, historian and singer with a wealth of stories and jokes at his finger tips immediately had the assembled audience eating out of his hands. Also within our small group was our own Ian Anderson club member and weel kent face among the Jedburgh music scene and very talented singer and musician.
Alternating between them, the two Ians and the apprentice kept us well entertained until the end of the evening.
The Sunday Run
On the Sunday morning we awoke to torrential rain and very heavy skies. The original plan was to have had a short run around the Trossachs followed by another BBQ, unfortunately due to the weather this was cancelled.
I would like to end by thanking Eileen and Richard who every year provide us with the marquee, open up their home to us and put in a great deal of work which allows this great event to take place. Its greatly appreciated by everyone.

You are what your father ate - before you were born
Washington, Dec 24 (ANI): Scientists have discovered evidence that environmental influences experienced by a father can be passed down to the next generation, "reprogramming" how genes function in offspring.
The new study, conducted by researchers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and the University of Texas at Austin, shows that environmental cues-in this case, diet-influence genes in mammals from one generation to the next, evidence that until now has been sparse.
These insights, coupled with previous human epidemiological studies, suggest that paternal environmental effects may play a more important role in complex diseases such as diabetes and heart disease than previously believed.
"Knowing what your parents were doing before you were conceived is turning out to be important in determining what disease risk factors you may be carrying," said Oliver J. Rando, principal investigator for the study.
To test their hypothesis Rando and colleagues fed different diets to two groups of male mice.
The first group received a standard diet, while the second received a low-protein diet. To control for maternal influences, all females were fed the same, standard diet.
Rando and colleagues observed that offspring of the mice fed the low-protein diet exhibited a marked increase in the genes responsible for lipid and cholesterol synthesis in comparison to offspring of the control group fed the standard diet.
The study has been published this week in Cell. (ANI)

In any job function there must be specific methods or procedures adopted to ensure effectiveness and productivity, as well as quality. To get an overall success we require commitment and participation by all employees. We must be prepared to cultivate work culture and understanding on latest issues. This is to provide maximum output with minimum capabilities. In any Corporate Organisation SECURITY is one of the main Department that need modification towards present need and challenges.
MALAYSIA is well ahead in its development towards NATION BUILDING. Our MALAYSIA PLAN ie. (NEP – New Economic Policy) Economic Prospers is already half way through. Thank to our beloved Prime Minister Dato' Seri Dr. Mahathir Mohamad. Being our role model as one of the recognized world leaders, he forsee Future Development in Malaysia. It is through his wisdom and analysis that he formulate VISION 2020 with the purpose of creating knowledge citizens and progressive . Through his effort, we implement policies on K. Economy, ICT and last but not least from the support of the players it selves – The K. WORKERS. Perhaps with this policy now is already in progress and will be having better Malaysian in term of Information and Development. There is nothing more important than providing a positive image on knowledge and constitutes the justification of our existence. This has proven valuable in reducing operational liability, risk exposure and in recognising and identifying developing trends before they escalate into more serious problems. Now our government promote K3P Program (an education system to encourage people to read, listen and observe). This is the only way to instill knowledge indirectly at all level within the community. SECURITY is one of the parties involved in upgrading knowledge.
Perhaps conscientious training of Security Personnel is the single most critical factor which effect the success of SECURITY OPERATION. It is through training that we maintained commitment and continuing education of all Security staff, Personal and Supervisory Representative.
Our philosophy of service is based on strategic self interest and business prospers. One must agree that the most successful department is the ones that have delivered outstanding result, driven by simple mural imperative to provide quality service. With good quality and performance, the immediate result is that you loose one thing which you can't afford to loose ie. CREDIBILITY , but we must accept REALITY.
As the saying goes "KNOWLEDGE IS THE ULTIMATE WEAPON TO SUCCESS" the Malaysian authorities maintained a commitment through training to the continuing of all our security staff. Our standard format of training has proven valuable on the expectation of SECURITY OPERATION and MANAGEMENT SYSTEM in globalization.
Whatever perception we are changing we still have to strive on our security MOTTOS :-
1) To Protect
2) To Serve
3) To Preserve
4) To Prevent
Through our job function principles and strategies in line with economic development of the world, it is emotionally interactive primer for personal and professional success. For change of qualities in LIFE, we also have to change our attitude. In considering K. SECURITY we have to stretch for the highest level of creativity, leadership and humanitarian. This is when the following qualities have to be upgrade and check :-
a) IQ (Intelligence Quotient)
b) EQ (Emotional Quotient)
c) SQ (Spiritual Quotient and Ritual Quotient) and
d) KQ (Knowledge Quality)
The definition of "INTELLIGENT" is distinguished for intelligence of an active mind or discerning or endowed with intellect.
In the psychological stand point it is the study of the mind and its processes. During a forum in a Local University sometime ago it was discussed as how to identify persons with High IQ (Intelligence Quotient).
It has been stated that a person with High IQ are being bestowed with a gift from the creator on the other hand it can be cultivated through training the mind to be intellect. It has been also mentioned that a person with High IQ has a special potential to be highly successful and are respected in society. People look up to them for advice. But then again intelligence can be utilized in many ways. It could be for good or evil.
We have heard of great inventors ie. Thomas Edison who invented light bulbs, Alexandra Grahambell invention of telephone. This mentioned few have put their intelligence to good use and for the betterment of mankind.
In our local context we have hardcore criminal who were very intelligent ie. Botak Chin, Bentong Kali, Mat commando to name a few. These people are highly intelligent but made use of their intelligence in a wrong full way which lead to their downfall.
Daniel Coleman, who is the author of a book on Emotional Intelligence states that with IQ alone a person is not a complete person. We have to have Emotional Intelligence (EQ) Spiritual Quotient (SQ).
In order to be guided to being intelligent.
For many years, we have been led to believe that a person's intellectual intelligence (measured as IQ, or intelligence quotient) is the greatest predictor of success. Society assumes that people with high IQs will naturally accomplish more in life. School often uses IQ test results to choose children for gifted programs and advanced placement courses. Some companies even use the results as a criterion for hiring employees.
We have been conditioned to judge intelligence with these numbers. In the past 10 years, however, researchers have found that this isn't necessarily the case that in actuality, a person's emotional intelligence (EQ) might be a greater predictor of success than his or her IQ.
Until very recently a lot of emphasis was given to the role of LOGICAL THINKING, ability to learn efficiently, and memorize the material in determining the conventional Intelligence Quotient (IQ). Pundits and scholars of management and human behavior ignored the importance of emotions and the ability (intelligence) of handling the emotions in day-to-day life situations. Such a concept Emotional intelligence was highlighted by Daniel Goleman in the book published during 1995. The concept of Emotional Quotient (EQ) is simply the index of emotional intelligence that one has.
But What is Emotion? The term emotion has been derived from the Latin 'emover', which may be translated to move, to excite or to agitate. Today, the term emotion is used as an umbrella to any subjective experience. You use the term to express love, hate, attraction, aggression perception, or any other such powerful feeling and pattern. Most of the affairs of everyday life are tinged with feeling and emotion. Sorrow and joy, disappointment and love, dismay and hope– are the feelings we experience in the course of day or week. Without such feelings our life would be quite plain and dull. We remember with warm glow the pleasant moments we lived; we anticipate with pleasure our parties and dates. On the other hand when our emotions are so intense or out of our control (and too easily aroused), they can get us in frequent trouble. Emotions may also wrap our judgment, turn friends into enemies and make us miserable, as we were sick emotionally.
No matter how good and sharp you are in learning a particular subject and how well and efficiently you solve the problems (or make correct decisions) unless you have optimum control over your emotions (measured and indexed in terms of EQ), you will not be able to achieve the best possible results.
Some of us frequently face such a situation while you are involved in your studies facing the examinations. You may have good memory, deep understanding of the subject and despite your having spend good amount of time in the studies, you fail to recall a formula, some text or an equation– just because of your mind overflowing with unwanted emotions and tensions that your general intelligence is unable to handle. You need to have higher EQ also in order to be absolutely successful at the given task. You ought to be self managed development in controlling your emotions in such a way (improve your EQ) so that your emotions do not cloud your basic general intelligence (i.e., IQ). Some people score very high on general intelligence test (e.g., 150 IQ) and yet they fail to receive the fruits in terms of success in their life. It may be simply because they lack certain kind of emotional maturity that is detrimental to their overall performance. True intelligence may be thought of as a combination of both EQ and IQ.
Some psychologists have also referred EQ as true intelligence. It may also be seen as 'healthy development' of one's emotional intelligence. If one were born with high level of innate EL (effective learning), and grew up in a family which provides high EQ (in its environment), it is likely to do very well on an EI test as well as in his overall life. In other words it is the heredity and environment both that contribute towards overall True Intelligence of a person. You may also IMPROVE YOUR EQ by certain simple techniques far as the environmental contribution or role may be positively enhanced towards its development in Psychodrama and Sociodrama.
So friends, remember, it is not simply your abilities related to high IQ but also your abilities related to EQ that determines your overall success in any field. In fact it is the combination of
IQ and EQ that makes you successful in various activities of general life including your examinations and your work at job. It is not surprising, therefore, that many big companies and organizations are exposing their employees to different training programs that are essentially experiential in nature and claim to be helpful in improving the EQ of the participants. Such training programs are designed to improve the understanding of emotions, creating better insight in their participants to be able to deal more efficiently with day-to-day emotional situations at the job and in other social life situations are being sold for over millions of dollars through out the world and specially aimed at white collar jobs.
You may also improve your EQ by becoming more practical in your life and especially in your social relations. Keep on reminding yourself that you have higher goals to achieve and "no one can make you unhappy without your own consent". Avoid irrelevant information that is not useful in achieving your goal– simply ignore it. Relaxation and Meditation may also prove to be useful to you. And over and above the conviction and meaningfulness of you're desired goal will always help you to use your emotions in a fruitful way. Remember the world and the relations are temporary and ever changing don't let them overtake your vision and logic are linked to your higher goals. You will be more successful and happy than before.
The world is now looking at ways to narrow the cultural, political and economical differences among countries through globalization.
However, the common tool used in communication globally the spiritual proficiency is not used though –out the world. Most countries around the world today, are trying their best to train their citizen, as they are going to be the future leaders of country.
Teaching spiritual is an intricate process as there must be an effective method to do it.
Our culture and religion has spiritual educated many people in the country as well as countries that are struggling with spiritual and those that have a fist native culture and religion as a secondary one.
Malaysian society understands the issue. The programme is designed to help belief effectively.
The SQ method of undertaking was a noble approach towards SQ/RQ educator since our current societies in this country are rich in values.
On the other hand, our culture and religion divides the leaning of SQ/RQ into several levels, which makes it easier for leaning.
SQ is already making people in Malaysia to be taught for Malaysian workers to modify their attitude.
On future plans are to tell people that SQ/RQ is a better way for their people to be better citizen complained to other courses in the market. We are confident that SQ/RQ concept once they realized, how effective it can be.
SQ/RQ main forces are simplicity and creativity. We have obviously to put a lot of effort into developing Quality.
Standing as a portal in modernity and culture diversity with a strong adjustment to our SQ and RQ, we will break breach from tradition as they were articulate, competitive, entrepreneurial and promo to inter-ethnic on intervention.
With our Malaysian population of multiracial and religion, its adoptions of legends, myths, belief whether from Oriental, East and Western opus's and RQ play a vital role in introducing modification and practice which will ensure it does not fade into obscurity in traditional norms.
Whatever events, happening or activities surroundings us are knowledgeable, may it be Political, Social, Technologies, Science, Health, Cultural, Religion, Behavioural. The only different is that it's changing the pattern and system according to time and progress. Knowledge is the most important COMMODITY in LIFE. It has a wide variety and rather global subject matter. Through multiple knowledge we can be selective to increase PRODUCTIVITY, RELIABILITY, LONGEVITY, ABILITY and CREATIVITY to success. By collecting, using and enlarging it is a constant challenge for employees towards the 21st Century.
Knowledge is a skill to gather information about future objective in development and progress. It is a self-assessment of skill or competences. The most common method of improving knowledge is through ACTIVE LEARNING. It is a MULTIFACETED ENTERPRISE and DIVERSIFIED social culture. With our gifted six senses human being are able to experience everything. We only need to develop a plan to begin conditioning our METABOLISM to use and produce them healthily. What one need to do is to determine and apply the knowledge that we have on which one is more important to us and will help us to be much effective in making decision consistent with what will give us success. Besides all that endless variety of ideas or object of knowledge, there is like wise something which we knows or perceives them and exercise divers operation as willing, imagining, remembering about them.
This perceiving, active is what we called the MIND, SPRIT, SOUL or SELF PERCEPTION.
Our present government is of opinion that knowing ENGLISH could bring positive result towards BETTER MALAYSIA. Most of knowledge and information are written in English. In learning we apply LOOK WEST POLICY.
Part of new dimension of Life for Malaysian is to look for ideas and methods on TECHNOLOGIES. This is done because we formed the multimedia super corridor approach and built CYBER CITY. Just look at the invention of communication nowadays. Through ICT ( Information, Communication, Technologies ) we are transforming from AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY to INDUSTRIAL now. When competing for success in this Industry one has to be mastering knowledge on science. Hopefully through this VISION we would progress in our future ECONOMY better than other developing countries.
In terms of the working attitude, our Government apply the LOOK EAST POLICY (learning from Japan and Korea – by being a workaholic).
The Dynamic of success for professional and personal development is to improve and update ourselves on KNOWLEDGE with our future ability to "helicopter vision" and manufacture their imagination. The Malaysians are moving from intellectual to specialist to generalist. We can foresee nowadays Malaysia is going through Exceptional progress and people skill. With the present, KQ we have the ability to cope with change and complexity.
If the US Navy is proud of their elite group "THE SEAL", The British Army with the "SAS", The American ZEBRA FORCE, They Royal Malaysian Police with their VAT 69, Security in Malaysia can also be one of the Elite Group which I shall code named The "EEL". EEL represent – Effective, Efficient and Laudable. To be as one of the Elite Team, is part of our Malaysian SECURITY PROJECT LINK Vision. By mastering knowledge we are able to change for a better set of values.
Come 2020, Malaysian Security will be at par or much better off amongst developing nation in SECURITY INDUSTRY. Looking at the History of Malaysian Security we should be more progressive than others at the speed of progress. I would like to thanks APSA and fellow Malaysian Security Practitioners for their kind support and giving me the opportunity to write this article and hopefully would provide Synergetic benefits to the organisation.

Beautiful Mess
|Camo Jacket, Necklace, & Clutch: Thrifted / Dress: Vintage Victor Costa / Boots: Mulberry
Photography: Denisio Truitt
Well since I wasn't cool enough to receive invites to an inaugural ball. {Insert salty ass face here} I decided to wear the front runner of dresses I would've worn in today's post. I've worn this dress on the blog before, for a photoshoot. But haven't had the pleasure of wearing it how it's supposed to be worn. You know how you have those pieces in your closet worthy of an epic ball or special occasion??? That's what I envision for this dress. Maybe one day it'll get the glory it deserves.
Because I had to casualify the dress...I created this beautiful mess of an outfit. Something about it just works, it kinda messes with your head a little right. It's like..."Is she wearing a ball gown and camo jacket? What the hell was she thinking, but wait that's kinda dope...Ok I must admit I really like it." Hahaha, that's what I'd be thinking if I saw me. Sometimes, you have to just let loose and not give a damn. I've been dressing really casual as of late, but I love days when I feel like having fun with my clothes. I could spend hours just playing dress up in my closet with a glass or two of wine. Heaven on earth I tell ya.
Speaking of wine, I believe it's safe to say I'm a certified wino lol. Currently I'm obsessed with "Sweet Red" wine....ummmmmmmm it's so delicious!!!! Welp I hope all is right in yall's world, if it ain't make it right....Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee XO

In-Pipe Turbine Generator (IPTG) Video – How it works…
In an effort to provide low maintenance and "green" electricity to those isolated locations without commercial power access, Lightning Master has developed the innovative In-Pipe Turbine Generator (IPTG).
A cutting edge product, this solution was designed to ensure safety with minimal maintenance and minimal negative environmental impact as it generates power without combustion of fossil fuels.
The In-Pipe Turbine Generator is an electric generator contained in a two-foot section of 6″ stainless steel pipe. It harvests energy by using the natural flow of gas within the pipe to rotate a turbine and produce electric current in coils mounted around its exterior. The generator is designed to generate power 24hr a day with an option for 12, 24 or 48 volt output.
Sites using Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems can effortlessly monitor the IPTG system. To ensure the device operates efficiently, it is built to last with 316 stainless steel. It's approximately 300 pounds and does not compromise the structural integrity of the pipe.
The In-Pipe Turbine alleviates the expense issue of power access in remote locations:
- It can't be stolen
- Other equipment can be run off of the unit
- The IPTG is ideal for battery charging
- Free electricity when well is running
- Units can be run in a series to produce more power

Holy Cow! A big thanks to Leanne for nominating me for a Blogger's Choice Award! I'm up for best Animal Blog--I have two votes already--whoot! Although I wonder if I should say Cinnamon is up for best animal--she has a very loyal fan base. We're celebrating with some parsley. If you enjoy the blog, please consider voting. That would be pretty cool to get recognition for birding...and disapproving rabbits.
Friday was an action packed day, I'm to have to divide the entries up. We started at Carpenter, which at first seemed like it was going to be a morning of nothing but juncos but then some excitement came in with a sharp-shinned hawk (above). We were watching a fox sparrow hop and kick around one of the traps and I was trying to use my mind power to get it to go into one of the traps, when all of a sudden all the birds flew towards the window, missing it and ducked for cover. One of the staff announced: "Hawk!"
Hellziggy took the above photo. A junco had already come into a trap further away from us and an adult sharp-shinned hawk was trying to get it in the trap. I wonder if this is the same sharp-shin that nailed a junco in a trap from last December? The hawk spent quite a bit of time flying and clamping down on the trap--it did not seem to understand that it was not going to be able to get the junco out. Jim Fitzpatrick dug around for a balchatri trap (works well for raptors), bated it and set it outside. When he went out, the hawk flew up in the tree, but as soon as the bated trap was out, it went right back down for the balchatri.
After about fifteen minutes, but the hawk finally got caught on the trap and we brought it in for banding. Before it got its toes caught in the nooses on the trap was on the trap, I digiscoped a few photos.
The bird was an adult male. Isn't he beautiful. It's kind of strange, I'm sued to seeing these guys up close when we band them in the fall, not in the spring. He did not have a full crop, but he did have some meat on this chest, he'd been eating well this winter.
Hellziggy made it to banding and we ended up going to lunch and birding in a few other areas. I was glad she made it today, she got to be the one to release the sharp-shinned hawk. New people at banding always seem to bring good luck and cool birds into the traps!
Incidentally, the junco that had been in the trap that brought the sharp-shin in was let go--it had been through enough that morning, it didn't need the added stress of human handling and banding. Although, when he gets to his mating territory, he will pretty fierce thinking, "Yeah, I did a round or two with a sharp-shin, I can take on any male junco in a territory battle." Although, banding must not be too stressful, the above junco we trapped yesterday has been re caught NINE times since it's original trapping in December of 2004. Nine times and it still goes into the the potters traps and hangs out around Carpenter in the winter. It's not like the traps are the only places on the property with food and seed, there are plenty of feeders and spilled seed for juncos to get to without being trapped.
After banding I thought we would check open water for ducks. We stopped at the St Croix and the wind was brutal. It's been below freezing the last for days and today the wind was twenty - thirty miles an hour at least. The river was covered with hundreds of tree swallows (above) trying to glean what little food they can from just above the water. This is the weather that separates the strong from the weak. Usually tree swallows are already nesting, but this cold has put a stop to that. This report came in yesterday from Wisconsin by Patrick Ready:
Today while monitoring my state park trail boxes I opened a box I was concerned had a house sparrow nest in it. Instead of house sparrows about 12 Tree Swallows came bursting out of the nest box.
These birds are under severe stress with this frigid weather and are bunching up in nest boxes to stay warm to survive. The magnitude of this behavior is very unusual due to the fact that so many tree swallows returned very early this year.
Kent Hall in Stevens Point reported finding 17 in one of his boxes this afternoon and promptly quit monitoring. Anyone needing to check nest boxes during this cold spell should stop and look into the entrance hole to see if any tree swallows can be seen before proceeding. Even this is risky as some boxes may only have 3-4 birds and may not be visible until the box is open and the they'd take flight. Better to hold off monitoring until temperatures return to normal. When night time temps drop below freezing avoid checking boxes until later in the morning in case swallows have gathered inside to stay warm.
I don't know if anyone saw Julie's post last month about dead bluebirds in her box, but I think this is a good warning to readers who have bluebird trails. One of the risks that birds take when arriving back in early spring is dealing with low food supplies and harsh temperatures--this helps ensure the strongest survive, but it hard for us to watch. If you would like to help a little, now is an excellent time to stock up on mealworms at your local bird store and attach cups full of worms to your bird houses or just mix some in with your tray feeder. I also scatter suet into my tray feeders to for migrants.
More on Friday's birding adventures later.

the matches
King Cuerno b Super Fly (3:27, "the thrill of the hunt" or maybe it's "the Big Game")
Chavo Guerrero b Fenix (5:43, frog splash)
Johnny Mundo defeated Big Ryck and Prince Puma in a $100,000 ladder match (19:34)
the developments
Danny Trejo came for the ladder match, unlike Kurt and Alfedo. They are not as tough as Machete.
Super Fly debuted. In the alternate universe of Lucha Underground, he's still a tecnico, still part of Fuerza Aerea (who picked him to be here) and still masked. He lost to Cuerno, who's finisher may have been renamed. Drago watched from the perch, and Cuerno looked at him while finishing off Super Fly.
Vignettes aired for Pentagon Jr. – who traveled to Japan to learn all sorts of evilness involving breaking bones – and (Brian) Cage. Cage's was more MMA/big focused, pushing himi as heel who was different than the Mexican luchadors.
Pentagon Jr. and Sexy Star cornered their partners from last week. A Pentagon Jr. trip led to Chavo Guerrero beating Fenix. Sexy Star threatened Chavo after the match, saying Demon would be back soon. There was a dueling "Let's go Fenix", "Let's go Chavo" chant.
Mundo still had the key prior to the ladder match. Ryck was not confident the ladders would support him and uneasy climbing them; Cisco & Castro got involved as much to climb the ladder for him as they were to beat up Puma & Mundo. Cisco took huge falls, including being sent off the post into two tables on the floor. Puma was taken out by being sent out of the ring and thru a table. When it seemed Mundo was gong to win, a man in a Pentagon mask ran out to stop him. It wasn't Pentagon, but someone the announcers had scene around the Temple but could not identify. Mundo was able to fight Ryck's goons off and get the briefcase.
Cueto demanded Mundo give him back his key. Mundo thought about it, punched Cueto, and dropped the Key on him.
All the gifs for the show are on imgur and the ten that could fit are over on tumblr.
They did a good job of keeping the Cuerno/Drago issue going. Drago looks cool just standing there. Super Fly doesn't seem to have a big role here but he did look good in his big dive.
Chavo Guerrero kept the young Mexican flyer from pulling off most of his exciting offense, this seems vaguely familiar. To be fair, it built well to the end with Fenix getting in some big spots, and it took Pentagon Jr. interfering to cost him the meatch. The end game here is still Demon/Chavo.
Ladder match was great. Mundo and Puma did some creative spots, Cisco and Castro took a lot of beating, and Ryck was used smartly like the Street fight. The new guy – who appears to be "Bael" (B-Boy) based on the taping results – didn't have much of an impactful debut considering how ineffective he turned out to be, but that's a minor grievance in a good match.
Johnny Mundo is on the lineup for the next show. That one is going to be harder to explain.
Cards on the table: I was pretty sure Cage was the guy Dario was talking to weeks ago, the guy who Dario is keeping hidden away by the key. Maybe he still is, but introducing him in the vignette suggests he may have a different role. Guess we find out together.

FRANK MALONEY believes he can help Scott Harrison seal one of the greatest comebacks of all time by leading him to a world title six years after his last fight.
The boxing guru, who made Lennox Lewis a legend, is using all the legal muscle he can muster to get Harrison under contract after a two-year sentence in a Spanish prison.
And next week he hopes to announce the former world title holder's re-introduction to the ring as more than just a freak show.
And hard-nosed Maloney revealed his belief in Harrison making it all the way back to the top is based on the fighter's tough, aggressive personality.
He said: "Harrison's a fighting man. That's all he knows. He'd have a ruck with anyone who came in his way.
"Scott would take on f dta e King Kong if he had to and that's a great trait for a boxer. I have instructed a top barrister to attend to the legal issues relating to Scott's association with the Sports Network group and I want to get that settled quickly."
It was thought Harrison would have been a ticketselling natural to appear on the undercard when Scotland's Ricky Burns defends his world title at the Braehead Arena on March 10.
But Maloney has still to be convinced Scott's home city of Glasgow is the right place to start again after the elongated disruption of his career.
He said: "I know exactly why everyone wants to see Scott fight in Glasgow because he's box office.
"But I have to sit down with him and his father, Peter, and explain a lot of aspects of the business have changed while he's been away.
"We also have to decide what weight Scott will come back at. I'm not convinced he needs that pressure while fighting in front of his home crowd.
"Scott believes he can be world champion and could be right. It's going to be tough but his determination to succeed makes him stand out."

After using your closet for years, you decide to clean it and organize it. While you face the closet you see a nightmare in the form of outfits and other stuff cluttering all-over your closet.

WILLISTON - A clerk at the McDonald's near the intersection of U.S. 27 and U.S. 41 was charged with grand theft this week after her actions apparently were reviewed on a surveillance camera.
Williston Police Chief Dan Davis said a $1,773 deposit was apparently taken from the store's safe May 17 while another employee had the safe open to count money.
"We think the clerk was heading to a bank to get change and she saw the safe was open and that there was a deposit in there from a previous shift," Davis said. "When she thought no one was looking, she took the deposit."
A review of the store's internal security camera system showed investigators what happened, Davis said.
The clerk was summoned to the police department Wednesday to be questioned about the incident and Davis said she ultimately confessed to taking the deposit.
The clerk was identified as Tara Davis, 26, who has an Archer address and is not related to the police chief. She was charged with grand theft and booked into the Levy County Jail.

Rape Crisis Center offering support group
The Alachua County Victim Services and Rape Crisis Center is offering a support group for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, the county reported.
The support group starts Tuesday and will hold weekly meetings for 10 weeks. There is no charge for participants. Trained counselors will be in charge of the meetings.
"Many survivors suffer in silence, afraid to tell anyone. Survivors can experience effects of the abuse years and even decades after it stops. Some of these effects might be depression, a deep sense of shame, intrusive memories of the abuse, alcohol or substance abuse and unhealthy relationships," according to a statement about the support group.
For more information, contact Laura Kalt or Sue Ahn at 352-264-6760 by Monday.

Grant will send Spanish teachers to S. America
A federal grant will fund a project for Spanish teachers to travel to South America and develop instructional materials.
The U.S. Department of Education awarded the $66,574 grant to the University of Florida's Center for Latin American Studies. The four-week curriculum development project is a collaboration between the center, UF's College of Education and Florida's K-12 schools.
The project team includes two UF faculty members and 12 foreign language teachers in 11 Florida counties.
In the first phase, the teachers formed an online community and took part in an orientation program May 16-17 on the UF campus.
The second phase involves trips to Ecuador and Peru, where participants will learn local languages, cultures and educational practices. In the third phase, participants will develop instructional materials that will be available at no cost online and at conferences.

Old gas pumps may be problem as prices rise
Old gasoline pumps could cause problems for motorists, according to the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
These pumps might not be able to post prices higher than $3.99 a gallon, causing some gas stations to post prices per half gallon.
The same situation occurred in 2005 when gas prices rose above $2.99 a gallon. Stations put up signs that the prices were per half gallon instead of the normal per-gallon cost. But the situation still caused confusion and resulted in complaints, the department reported.
State regulations require that gas pumps use per-gallon prices. Gas stations are supposed to retrofit those pumps that can't display the proper price now that the cost of gas has risen so quickly.
To report gas stations that are not displaying the per-gallon price, contact the department at 800-435-7352 or 800-352-9832.

Officials will seize 120 abused horses, donkeys
OCALA - Marion County officials say they will seize about 120 abused and malnourished horses, miniature ponies and donkeys from a resident.
County spokesman Judge Cochran says the county had not yet removed the animals from the properties Thursday night, but court documents filed earlier in the day gave the county possession of the animals.
No charges have been filed against the owner, Francine Derby.
Cochran says emergency medical treatment was needed for some animals, while others were to be placed with volunteers temporarily.
The rest of the animals would be taken to land owned by the county where they would get food and additional medical care.
The animals will eventually be placed in new homes.

The Simple Gift of Walnut Grove (18min)
Directed / Photographed / Edited by John Richard
Production Assistance by James Davies
Music from The Danish String Quartet and Victor Borge
Executive Producer, John Mark Nielsen + Museum of Danish America
The Simple Gift of Walnut Grove is a short film about the life of an early 20th century Danish immigrant named Hans Hansen, as told by his son, 96 year old Walter Hansen. Hans emigrated from Denmark to the United States in 1899 and built a farm out of the native timber he found alongside a marginal piece of land on the Cedar River near West Branch, Iowa. Within Walter's soft-spoken account emerges the dynamic of a father-son relationship forged under the harsh conditions of the early Midwestern settlement.

The sea is close to the hearts of most (if not all) New Zealanders. Walk in to any work space or home in New Zealand, and it's almost certain that you'll see a picture of a treasured beach holiday on a desk or wall. I don't think there isn't a Kiwi alive who doesn't have fond memories of days at the beach.
The great annual summer shutdown is about to occur, when most businesses shut for two weeks over Christmas and New Year. Thousands of (if not a million!) Kiwis are preparing to leave their city homes and descend on the beaches all over the country, for the simple bach* life and two weeks of sun and sea.
*the bach is the traditional Kiwi beach holiday cottage – usually a rudimentary affair with very basic bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and living room, they are meant for sleeping in, and not much else – all other activity happens outside, where meals are cooked over the 'barbie' and eaten al fresco, and the day is spent "mucking around" on the beach, fishing, swimming, body surfing, digging holes and generally having fun.
This is a picture I took a few years back on one such summer holiday – the young boy is holding a handful of shellfish (pipi) he'd dug up from the sand. They're delicious, and especially so when cooked straight away over a fire on the beach, and seasoned with a dash of lemon juice and Tabasco sauce! These ones were put back due to contamination concerns at the time.
I'd go so far as to say that the beach and the sea are a part of the Kiwi soul. Start to talk about limiting rights to access the beach, or catch sizes, and you get extremely passionate responses.
It's a good thing too. If we continue to care, then hopefully it means that we will be mindful of looking after one of New Zealand's greatest natural treasures.
I for one, especially love pottering around rock pools. The first time I went to Makara Beach after I moved to Wellington, I thought I had discovered marine paradise.
Here, the rock pools are sheltered enough from the ocean swell that myriad sea life exists. Standing on the rocks, you gaze into the crystal clear water at this:
Let's now come closer and see more…
The above is Neptune's necklace.
I'd love to know what this one is called. I haven't been able to find out yet.
Sea lettuce (above) is apparently delicious, and I must try some soon.
The unspoilt beauty makes my heart sing and brings a sense of peace and happiness. Not to mention that knitting inspiration abounds!
We spend hours crouched over the pools, spotting the amazing forms of sea life…
Can you see the fish in this picture? There are two of them.
Notice the pink paint-like spots on the rocks? That's a crust-forming coralline algae, known as pink paint! This particular seaweed actually releases chemicals that encourage pāua (abalone) larvae to settle and mature.
Snail and limpets crawl slowly over the rocks, grazing on algae.
Just a bit further out at the edges of the rocks, abalone (pāua) and crayfish hide. On the weekends, the sea is alive with divers, who especially love to come and harvest them and the butterfish that flit in the kelp. I only hope they don't take too much. Some times you see evidence of less than legal behaviour…
This is an undersized pāua that unfortunately got taken before it was of legal size. The divers remove them from their shells on the beach and throw the shells back into the sea in order to more easily hide their greed.
I feel especially protective of what we have in New Zealand, especially after living overseas and going to the beach, full of expectation at finding something like the above, only to see… nothing. Just rocks, and sea. It was horrifying.
Ah yes, the sea is indeed full of bountiful treasures and wonderful experiences. Let us treasure what we have here, and never take it for granted.

We are responsible for removing abandoned vehicles from the public highway.
An abandoned vehicle is generally a vehicle that has come to the end of its life and/or has no owner and has therefore been disowned.
Dumped or abandoned vehicles are unsightly, potentially dangerous, encourage anti-social behaviour and overall negatively affect the quality of our environment. Hounslow Highways is responsible for investigating and arranging for the removal of abandoned vehicles from the borough's public highways.
The following categories are generally associated with abandoned vehicles:
Please note if the first two conditions are not met, the vehicle will not be classed as abandoned and therefore, we will be unable to remove it.
How do I Report an Abandoned Vehicle?
Please use our Contact page so we can investigate.
It would be of help to our investigation if you could provide information about the vehicle, such as the make, model, colour, registration number, exact location and a short note on the condition of the vehicle.
What happens next?
Once your report is received, it will be passed to an investigating officer. The officer will visit the location to inspect the vehicle and assess whether it is abandoned and if so, arrange for its removal. Once removed the vehicle will be taken to the pound where it will held for a short time and then destroyed and recycled.
Untaxed Vehicles
These are vehicles which are not abandoned but have no valid or out of date tax disc on display. The DVLA takes enforcement action for vehicles on the highway that are not showing a valid tax disc. You can report an untaxed vehicle to the DVLA here.

From the southern tip of their own continent and across to Latin America, Asia's two rising and aspiring powers are set to compete for supremacy and the mantle of superpower status. But it's in between these two points that the biggest competition between China and India is set to unfold. Forget Central Asia—Africa is the scene of the next 'great game.'
The reason why the two will zero in on Africa is simple—both have burgeoning, resource hungry populations and rapidly growing economies. If they are to have any chance of sustained competition with developed Western economies, they will need access to the rich natural resources that Africa can provide.
China already looks to have a significant edge on its rival, with two-way trade with Africa set to top $100 billion this year, compared to about a third of that between India and Africa last year.Enjoying this article? Click here to subscribe for full access. Just $5 a month.
Beijing has, after all, been actively courting allies through the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, which since October 2000 has had regular summits attended by the Chinese premier and dozens of African heads of state.
And India's response was a relative flop. It tried to follow in China's footsteps by launching the India–Africa Forum Summit. However, at its first and only summit so far, in April 2008, only 14 African countries were represented out of a possible 53.
Part of the problem is that India's External Affairs Ministry is still infused with what's known in diplomatic circles as 'Pakistani Syndrome'—an unhealthy focus among Indian diplomats at the highest echelons of government, including the national security advisor, on India's western neighbour.
China's African ambitions, in contrast, are not hamstrung by such regional concerns. Although the Chinese dragon is surrounded by what it sees as a sea of sharks wanting to curtail its influence in East Asia and the Pacific—namely India, Japan, Russia, the United States and Russia—it has a broad enough worldview and understanding of international relations to continue to focus on the valuable development of Africa.
Another Chinese advantage has been that many countries in Africa, including Angola, Ethiopia, Mozambique, Namibia and Sudan, feel a sense of obligation toward China after it helped them when they were confronted with the spectre of civil war following the demise of the Soviet Union.
After a surge of attention on the continent during the Cold War, the US and Russia lost interest in spending money in Africa, leaving instability—and space for China to step in. The gaps the two big powers left that China has sought to fill were big ones, with many African nations having depended heavily on their Cold War sponsors in the 1960s and 1970s for state-building assistance after securing independence from their colonial masters. Withdrawal pulled the rug from under any prospects for stability.

About Manuka Honey
Where it Comes From
Manuka Honey is our favorite ingredient by a mile. We love what it does so much, that we named our company Honeyskin!
Raw, organic Manuka Honey is contained in all Honeyskin Organics products, so it is very important to us that you understand what this wonderful ingredient is, where it comes from, and why we stand by it so firmly.
Firstly, we import all of our raw Manuka Honey from New Zealand, particularly New Zealand's North Island. There is where it is produced by local honey bees, who pollinate the flowers of the native Leptospermum Scoparium tree, also know as the "manuka bush" (pictured left). Once the bees produce this special honey, it is then harvested by professional, Unique Manuka Factor® Honey Association (UMF) registered beekeepers, packaged, then shipped to us for use in all of our products.
Our raw Manuka Honey is organic, pure, never tested on animals, and completely free from any added substances or chemicals.
What it Does
Now, here's why Manuka Honey itself is so amazing.
Manuka Honey has been used for a very long time, since "ancient" times to be precise, for it's intrinsic antibacterial[1], anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties.
Manuka Honey is known to help protect against damage caused by bacteria[1], assist the body in surface-level healing, and help your body repair tissue damaged by infection, all while nourishing the skin with a powerful medley of vitamins and nutrients.
Unique Manuka Factor, commonly called "UMF ", is a grade system that represents the level of quality and purity of Manuka Honey. All of our Manuka Honey is rated as UMF 12+, which is considered a high quality grade.
