What you can get for free in case of flight cancellation
In the unfortunate event of having your flight canceled, you should know that there are several forms of coverage that you can receive for your inconvenience. As specified here, airlines are obligated to provide you with free things to make the whole mishap less unpleasant. Read on to discover your rights in case of flight cancellation, and how to go about to claim them!
What is a flight cancellation?
Air travel is a busy business. In spite of its high level of management and logistics, things don't always go as smooth as intended. For various reasons, airline companies choose to cancel their flights or make sudden, last-minute changes to their flight schedules.
When an airline fails to manage a flight cancellation properly, hundreds or even thousands of passengers may suffer from it. People's personal lives, work schedules, and obligations get canceled or at least delayed. For this reason, you, as a passenger are entitled to unalienable rights and in some cases a decent amount of free stuff.
What causes a flight cancellation?
Unless you have decided to give up on your next trip by plane, the only part deciding a flight cancellation is the airline company. Airlines almost always try to avoid canceling a flight, for the reasons presented above. However, when delaying it does not represent a viable option anymore, the company may cancel your trip because:
- The weather does not allow it
- The plane suffers irreparable damage
- Earthquakes and tsunamis
- Air traffic congestion
- Security issues
Besides these factors, airline management glitches can also impact on the decision to cancel a flight or not. Additional causes may also include fueling problems or the late arrival of the aircraft from a previous flight.
Your rights in case of flight cancellation
The flight ticket that you buy represents a legal contract between you as a consumer and the company as the service provider. In full accordance with the terms and conditions that this legal contract implies, you are entitled to several consumer and passenger rights in case of flight cancellation.
There is not a standard set of rights offered by all airline companies, but in general, if your flight gets canceled, you are entitled to:
- A refund for your ticket or at least a replacement flight
- Financial compensation
- Early confirmation about the reasons for flight cancellation
Free stuff you should receive
If you are in the airport waiting for your plane to depart and the airline decides to cancel it, you are entitled to free things, such as:
- Food
- Refreshments
- Overnight accommodation
How to claim compensation
Monetary compensation for flight cancellation vary depending on company policy, the value of your ticket and the time when the airline canceled the flight. The closer the cancellation is to the departure date the bigger your coverage should be.
Your best choice to get rightful compensation for your flight being canceled is using the services of a professional company like airclaim.com. With the help of experts that hold substantial experience in the air travel business, you can claim proper reimbursement for your money and your inconvenience.


text: The Manbug looks like an oversized ladybug. I'm a big fan of the Ladybug, it's probably the design I carry the most, since it's always part of my EDC. The Manbug seems to big for keychain carry, to me at least. However, I think it fits nicely in a neck sheath or pocket carry. The ergos are nice, but –as with the ladybug- I would still attach something to the lanyard hole to improve overall grip and handling. I have Ti capsule that fits one CR123 battery that could fit very nicely to the Manbug. Personally I'd go for the polished G10 handle. The Manbug should be a very functional pocket knife you could use among even the most critical non-knife people. This one's definitely on my wish list.

The Grove 1950's
The Grove back in 1950 is somewhat different to what it looks like nowadays. The only part of the ground that currently remains is the shed which was constructed around the 1950's. As you can see from the photo's below the ground was a three sided affair with a cricket square.
The wooden undercover terrace was constructed aroudn the 1930's and is where the Harry Rudge Stand is currently located. Air raid shelters can be seen on the bottom photo.
The Grove 1980's
As shown below in the 1980's with it's famous slope. You can see the extent of the slope on the Shed End of the ground. Also shown below is the wooden side of the ground where the Harry Rudge Stand sits now. The old changing rooms are also shown at the bottom of the picture set.
The floodlights which are shown on the photo's the club won in 1983 lasted until 2001 when a new set were installed and officially inaugurated at a friendly against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Grove 1986
Work was undertaken in 1986 to lower and level the pitch in 1986. The problem was that the slope barred the club's way to promotion so it had to go. The huge amount of soil that was removed in levelling the pitch was used to build a terraced bank along the eastern side of the ground and at the Stourbridge Road end. The construction of the bank and the lowering of the pitch gave the ground a more enclosed feel.
In 1987 the 420 seater Harry Rudge Stand was completed on the site of the 1930s vintage wooden cover, whilst at the same time the rest of the ground received a face lift. The stand was extended in 1998 and again in 2000.

This article includes discussion of CLIPPERS and chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids. The foregoing terms may include synonyms, similar disorders, variations in usage, and abbreviations.
Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) is an inflammatory condition of unknown etiology, primarily involving the brainstem and cerebellum. Symptoms of CLIPPERS include subacute onset of brainstem symptoms--most prominently, ataxia, diplopia, dysarthria, and altered facial sensation. The core radiological features are punctate or curvilinear perivascular gadolinium enhancement, typically in the pons and adjacent cerebellum. Neuropathological examination of affected areas reveals a perivascular lymphocytic inflammation with predominant CD4+ T cells. Clinical and radiological features respond to high-dose corticosteroid treatment, but continuous oral corticosteroid treatment and steroid-sparing agents are needed to prevent relapses and to reduce the risk for subsequent parenchymal atrophy and chronic ataxia. The differential diagnosis for CLIPPERS is broad, and a careful workup is needed.
Key points
• CLIPPERS is a relapsing subacute brainstem syndrome presenting with symptoms such as ataxia, diplopia, dysarthria, and altered facial sensation.
• MRI shows punctate or curvilinear gadolinium enhancement in the pons and adjacent cerebellum. Lesions may extend into the basal ganglia or the cervico-thoracal medulla.
• Neuropathological examination of affected regions shows a perivascular lymphocytic inflammation that may involve both white and grey matter, with a CD4+ T cell predominance.
• No biomarker is available for CLIPPERS, and the differential diagnoses is broad, requiring a careful workup of alternative causes. Proposed diagnostic criteria are helpful in differentiating CLIPPERS from CLIPPERS mimics and, in typical cases, allow for diagnosis without brain biopsy.
• Both clinical symptoms and MRI abnormalities respond well to high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone, but continuous oral corticosteroid treatment and steroid-sparing agents are often needed to prevent relapses.
Historical note and terminology
CLIPPERS was initially described by Dr. Pittock and colleagues in 2010, based on a case series of 8 patients with similar clinical, radiological, and pathological features and a robust response to corticosteroid treatment (Pittock et al 2010). Following the original description, a number of smaller and larger case series and case reports described similar patients, expanding the clinical and pathological features (Biotti et al 2011; Gabilondo et al 2011; Jones et al 2011; Kastrup et al 2011; Simon et al 2012; Taieb et al 2012; Tohge et al 2012; Sempere et al 2013; Kerrn-Jespersen et al 2014). Patients with alternative diagnoses initially suspected to have CLIPPERS have also been reported. These include CNS lymphoma (De Graff et al 2013; Lin et al 2014), systemic T cell lymphoma (Nakamura et al 2016), Hodgkins lymphoma (Mashima et al 2015), primary cerebral angiitis (Buttmann et al 2013), anti-MOG-associated disease (Symmonds et al 2015), multiple sclerosis (Ortega et al 2012), and chronic hepatitis B infection (Weng et al 2015). Such cases have led to discussion of whether CLIPPERS represents a unique condition or merely a group of disorders that share the early features of ataxia, brainstem symptoms, and pontine perivascular contrast-enhancement on MRI. A large case series of 35 patients with a presumed diagnosis of CLIPPERS (of whom 23 were ultimately diagnosed with this disorder) has led to proposed diagnostic criteria for the differentiation of CLIPPERS from its mimics (Tobin et al 2017).

The Art and Practice of Diplomacy
The Art and Practice of Diplomacy
These papers are selected from the lectures and articles which I have written during the past thirty years. Most of those on contemporary subjects such as the treaties of peace or the progress of international institutions are now out of date, while those on historical subjects have often been incorporated in books subsequently published. Those selected are either lectures which have not previously been published or lectures based on personal experience which contain information not easily obtained elsewhere or historical articles which may still be of interest in themselves.
The two lectures on the 'Principles' and 'Machinery of British Foreign Policy' were first delivered at the University of Bristol but have subsequently undergone considerable revision. That on 'The Council of Europe' was given at the International Congress of Historians at Paris in 1950. Since all deal in large measure with diplomacy, either as seen by myself in action or recounted from historical sources, I have thought that the title of the first paper, in which I summed up shortly some of my conclusions on its technique, might well serve to describe the whole volume.
I am most grateful to a number of institutions and journals for permission to reprint those papers already published; to the London School of Economics for that on 'The Art and Practice of Diplomacy', the annual oration of 1951 and that on 'Lord Palmerston at Work' which appeared in Politica, a journal now defunct; to the Historical Association for those on 'The Making of the Charter of the United Nations' and 'The Accession of Queen Victoria', both of which were published in History, the journal of the Association and that on 'Fifty Years of Historical Teaching and Research' which was published in a pamphlet, 'Jubilee Address 1956,' on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary; to the David Davies Memorial Institute for that on 'Sanctions: The Use of Force in an International Organisation'; to the Weismann Institute at Rehovoth, Israel, for that on 'The Founder of the National Home'; to the British Academy for that on . . .

Season Ends in Extras
Whitecaps advance to Eastern Division Championship series
By Evan Petzold / Great Lakes Loons | September 6, 2018 10:59 PM
MIDLAND, Mich. - An RBI single to shortstop was enough to end the Great Lakes Loons season in Game 2 of the Midwest League playoffs. The West Michigan Whitecaps, after taking Game 1, stole the second at Dow Diamond on Thursday due to Luke Sherley's RBI single to shortstop in the top of the 10th inning.
Despite a 1-0 lead for the Loons (0-2) throughout the majority of the game, the Whitecaps tied the game in the top of the ninth. Reece Hampton singled off reliever Darien Nunez down the right field line to score Sherley for a 1-1 tie.
The only run for Great Lakes came on a balk by Whitecaps starting pitcher Wilkel Hernandez to score Eric Peterson in the bottom of the third inning.
Great Lakes sent out 2018 third round draft pick John Rooney to the mound to start against West Michigan. Rooney, a left-hander, pitched 2.2 innings of no-hit baseball before giving way to sixth-round pick Bryan Warzek.
Warzek managed 3.0 innings. He struck out three hitters, allowing two hits and two walks without a run. After reliever Stephen Kolek went 2.0 scoreless, it was Nunez's opportunity to slam the door in a one-run game during the ninth inning.
With two outs, the Whitecaps (2-0) recorded back-to-back singles. One of the two came from the bat of Hampton and allowed Sherley to score.
Sherley's single in the top of the 10th to score Colby Bortles proved to be the difference maker for West Michigan. Nunez put Bortles and Jordan Pearce on third and second base, respectively, before Loons manager John Shoemaker pulled him for Drury.
Even though Drury gave up the run, it was charged to Nunez. He allowed two runs on four hits and one walk in 1.2 innings pitched. Nunez (L, 0-1) was the only Loons pitcher to be tagged for earned runs on Thursday.
Whitecaps right-hander Billy Lescher took the bump for the bottom of the 10th. Down to its last out, Great Lakes got a double from Deacon Liput to keep the season alive for Jacob Amaya.
Lescher (W, 1-0) forced Amaya into a groundout to end the game and the season for Great Lakes.
With the win, West Michigan advances to Round 2 of the Midwest League playoffs. The Whitecaps will play either the Bowling Green Hot Rods or Lansing Lugnuts in a three-game series.
The Great Lakes Loons have been the Single-A partner of the Los Angeles Dodgers since the team's inception in 2007. Dow Diamond serves as the team's home and also houses the Michigan Baseball Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity, and ESPN 100.9-FM.

Britain's richest individuals: The battle between entrepreneurs and heirs
10 min read
11 May 2016
More than half of the wealth among the top 100 richest people in the UK is gained through inheritance or climbing the corporate ladder, analysis of the Sunday Times Rich List reveals – but what does this mean for our nation of entrepreneurs?
The latest round-up of 1,000 wealthiest people in the UK shows the UK plays host to 120 billionaires worth a total of £343.9bn.
But our analysis of the top 100 shows just one third have gained their riches through the struggles of starting a small business while more than half have made a living from inheritance or climbing the corporate ladder.
Our research shows that of the top 100; 49 inherited their wealth, 34 are entrepreneurs, eight happen to have climbed the corporate ladder, while nine have started their own successful business in a similar field after leaving a high-powered job.
What a difference a decade makes
Top of the list are the Reuben brothers. The property and metal trading tycoons are self-made billionaires having moved from Mumbai to London in the 1950s and made their fortune investing in Russian metals market during the fall of the Soviet Union in the 1990s.
They can technically be classed as entrepreneurs, although they have not created a unique product or different business, as most of their money is made from trading and property.
The makeup of the list has barely changed in the past decade. In 2006 the Reuben brothers were the eighth richest in the UK with steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal at number one. His wealth has fallen from £14.8bn to £7bn in a decade – he is now the eleventh richest in the UK.
The main difference has been that those at the top, particularly with inherited wealth, have seen their value grow.
The list does slightly reflect the changes in dominant industries. Retailer Philip Green was the fifth richest in 2006 at £4.9bn, he is now the 29th richest, worth £3.2bn.
You also now need to be richer to get a mention – in 2006 you needed £60m to get into the rich list, now you need £103m.
The top eight territories where you can find the ultra-rich population
Inherited wealth
Of the top ten, six have inherited their wealth, such as the Hinduja Brothers. Now worth £13bn and the second richest in the UK, their business, which invests in industries such as property, oil and healthcare, started as part of a family empire in 1914.
Others such as Charlene de Carvalho-Heineken and Michel De Carvalho, the seventh richest in the UK, have inherited money from the Heineken beer brand.
Even those who can be classed as entrepreneurial in the top ten are not actually offering a product or service but have made money from clever investment or business strategy. For example, Arsenal shareholder Alisher Usmanov is the tenth richest in the UK, worth £7.5bn, having made is money through mining.
Continue reading on the next page for a breakdown of the top ten richest individuals in the UK and what got them there, as well as a look at "true entrepreneurs".

The lavish first class suites that airlines have to offer
The true entrepreneurs
You have to wait until number 17 to find an entrepreneur in its purest sense, James Dyson. The inventor spent 15 years getting his now infamous dual cyclone vacuum cleaner to market and is worth £5bn.
Just below him is Virgin founder Richard Branson, with £4.52bn of wealth. In 2006, Branson was the ninth richest in the UK, valued at £3bn. His business interests have moved since those days from transport and phones to the more lucrative technology and airlines.
Entrepreneurs begin to feature more prominently down the list. At number 30, Laurence and Francois Graff, worth £3.2bn, have built a successful diamond business while a few places below at 34 is Tom Morris who started discount store Home Bargains in Liverpool in 1976.
There are also inspirational examples of businesses started at home, such as investing platform Hargreaves Lansdown, which was launched in Peter Hargreaves front bedroom. Its co-founder Peter Hargreaves is now the 50th richest person in the UK at £2.15bn.
At position 66 you will find Douglas and Mary Perkins who turned a small optician into Specsavers, which allowed them to become worth £1.55bn.
Continue onto the final page, where we'll look at those who climbed the corporate ladder, self-made women and the ten wealthiest youngsters in the UK.

Corporate climbers
Some names in the list have made their money by climbing to the top of a big firm or launching a business after a successful career in a similar industry.
For example, John Grayken, who founded private equity firm Lone Star, is a new entrant at number 20 – he's worth £4.4bn, but he is an ex-Morgan Stanley banker.
Or at number 54, former journalist Michael Moritz built his wealth to £1.95bn after working his way up to partner at venture capital firm Sequoia Capital, which has backed big tech firms such as Google and Apple.
All the self-made ladies
If you are looking for some female inspiration, you have to go further down the list to position 24 and Denise Coates. She is the richest self-made woman in the UK at £3.76bn, having turned her family's tiny betting shop business into the online gambling giant now known as Bet365.
Dial smart band from will.i.am on the market – and it doesn't need a phone to work
The young ones

Until the latter part of the 19th century, most American clothes shops were boutiques, selling only one type of item, such as hats or gloves. This meant customers had to make trips to several stores to put together a full outfit.
At first, brothers Joseph and Lyman Bloomingdale's shop was no different – it focused on hoop skirts, which were fashionable at the time. However, in 1872 they opened a shop that sold a wide range of high-end clothing, much of it imported from Europe.
The Bloomingdale Brothers Great East Side Bazaar (as it was initially known) proved such a hit that they moved to a larger location in 1886 (where it still resides today).
The brothers benefited from the fact that the nearby area experienced rapid development, bringing in business. Smart use of publicity, capitalising on its proximity to major transport links, also attracted shoppers.
As a result the store began to expand, taking over the adjoining buildings. By 1929 these had beenconsolidated into a now-famous Art Deco building that spanned an entire block.
By the postwar period, Bloomingdale's was firmly established as a New York icon. It provided many famous European designers with their first exposure to the American market. Indeed, it was so popular that Queen Elizabeth II visited it on a public trip to New York in 1976.
Meanwhile, a takeover by rival Macy's, in 1948, gave it enough capital to open up satellite stores, starting with one in the New York suburbs. Today, it operates 37 stores around the US, and a branch in Dubai.

Hollywood actor Ken Jeong, star of The Hangover, slams WWE icon John Cena
Actor appeared as guest host of Monday Night Raw back in 2009 but says he narrowly avoided injury after the wrestling legend went off-script
HOLLYWOOD movie star Ken Jeong has delivered a scathing shot at WWE legend John Cena as insists he "absolutely sucks".
The 49-year-old, who shone as Leslie Chow in massive hit "The Hangover", is a huge wrestling fan and even appeared for Vince McMahon's promotion.
He was made the celebrity special guest host of WWE's flagship show Monday Night Raw back in 2009.
Jeong has recently released a new stand-up comedy special on Netflix.
And he uses the performance to take a swipe at 16-time world champion Cena – after comparing his cancer surviving wife Tran to the icon.
He says: "She's Vietnamese John Cena But she doesn't do this [you can't see me gesture] f*****g bull***. Do you know what I mean?"
He then goes on to describe his segment with Cena on Raw, which resulted in huge Leader of the Cenation apparently going off-script and throwing the 5ft 4in silverscreen star over the top rope and almost causing him injury.
Jeong says: "John Cena lifts me up for a bodyslam, throws me over the top rope, and the five mother******* who were supposed to catch me didn't!
'VERY EMOTIONAL' WWE owner Vince McMahon reduced to tears after Brock Lesnar lost title
"He throws me over the top rope, I hit the concrete, my head hits the wooden plank.
"You can hear the sound of my head hitting the plank. I had to call Tran after Raw went off the air to assure her that I was okay.
"My whole point is John Cena absolutely sucks. He really does. I'm just saying."
Cena was forced to miss last month's Royal Rumble through injury and he is currently not scheduled to compete at WrestleMania 35 in April.
Rumours are mounting that he could be in line to face WWE Champion Daniel Bryan at the Showcase of the Immortals.
Cena, who is enjoying success in Hollywood in his own right, currently holds the joint-record with Ric Flair for the most world championship reigns.
WRESTLEMANIA 35 - How can you be there?
ALL rise for The Showcase Of The Immortals!
WWE's annual showpiece WrestleMania takes place on April 7 from the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, but when can you get tickets for it?
And what is the best way to get there from the UK?

As was hinted at in earlier posts, our 2012 theme at Dyn is Better, Faster, Stronger. 2011 saw a number of changes here: a new office, many new clients, the concept of functions and lots of new faces. We spent the last year putting a lot of new stuff together, making the year ahead about fine tuning.
Since reliability is core to our services, the reliability of our staff is also core. We think about it as a bus theory: how many people can get hit by a bus before operations suffer (yeah, a little morbid)? As a result, we try to have people cross trained and share responsibilities.
2011 meant that almost every function became part of a system, mostly because of scale. We had to figure out how to break things up so that multiple people could share the load. We went to systems instead of individuals.
For 2012, we're going to go back to people.
People are the ones that make differences and ensure that things don't fall through the cracks. People are also the ones that challenge how things are done and replace broken systems with better systems. In the end, people make the difference in anything and everything a company does.
The only difference is that there are a lot more of us now that help make a difference at Dyn everyday.

Tesla bought an engineering firm to see that the production of Tesla Model 3 runs smoothly.
If we look at the preorders of Tesla Model 3, we are able to see that there are a lot of cars to be made by the company. Like this, we are looking for almost 500,000 cars per year by the end of 2018.
In order to meet the deadlines of production and to meet the haughty demands of customers, the company is set to obtain partnership with another one.
Tesla is all set to obtain Grohmann Engineering, which is a German firm that is specialized in automated manufacturing. The company will help Tesla in building these cars.
This bargain and acquiring will help Elon Musk's company to complete its tasks and to speed up its productions. Grohmann is supposed to serve as the base of Tesla's Advanced Automation Germany facility. If everything goes in the right direction, then the deal can be finalized in the year 2017.
The company is looking to add 1000 new jobs for advanced engineering and skilled technical jobs in Germany in the next two years. This mean that Tesla is certainly looking to invest in Germany.
This partnership was in news from the past many months. Tesla was planning to build a partnership with Grohmann in order to manufacture the upgrades form the past few months.
Tesla has to achieve a lot in order to make Model 3 production successful, according to Engadget. The company has to work for new Powerwalls and Powerpacks for batteries.
The company is also looking forward to self-driving capabilities. Tesla has also acquired Solar City earlier this year thus, this new move is not surprising.

As Scientology declines, its members are even giving up on their spooky super powers - 2016-09-05
We want to thank Artoo45 for alerting us to the latest Advance! magazine, which has always been one of our favorite Scientology publications. It's in Advance! that the "OT Phenomena" column runs. Jefferson Hawkins, who once edited Advance!, tells us that column was one of the most popular things the publications division put out. And we can see why.
It's in this column that the highest-leveled Scientologists, the privileged and wealthy few who have reached the "Operating Thetan" levels, share a glimpse of the way they were bending the universe to their wills with the superhuman powers promised at the upper end of Scientology's "Bridge to Total Freedom." And back in the day, oh what powers and abilities those OTs had.
If you're one of our longtime readers, you may remember excerpts that we ran at the Village Voice from copies of Advance! magazine from the 1970s and later. In those columns, Scientologists would relate that they could leave their bodies at will, travel across space and time, and perform all sorts of miracles (or figure out, from several states away, what the color of your patio furniture was).

As you begin to build a build of a subscriber, it may become desirable to start displaying your follower numbers from several avenues, such as your Twitter followers, Facebook fans or your RSS subscribers. It lends some credibility to your site, showing that you've already built a decent reader base.
I decided that it was about time that I did this on Do It With WordPress, for the experience (and this tutorial) if nothing else. It actually wasn't as easy to come up with this information as I had hoped, so I ended up largely crafting these snippets myself to get it just the way I wanted.

The Rainbow: Symbol of the Seven Paths to God
The rainbow has long been a symbol of hope, as white light passes through prisms of raindrops, and seven distinct colors are revealed. I think of the rainbow as a metaphor for the seven paths to God, which are likewise a part of what seems to be an indivisible whole -- each a precious reflection of one aspect of divine consciousness.
The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is our relationship to God; happiness, gratitude, and the knowledge that we have been given unique gifts with which to serve.
The Number Seven in Ancient Traditions
The number seven has special properties in most ancient traditions. Religious historian Rosemarie Schimmel (The Mystery of Numbers) documents numerous references to the number seven in both the natural and supernatural worlds: seven seas and seven heavens, seven planets of the solar system, seven days of the week, and seven notes to the musical scale. Creation was fashioned in seven days -- including the Sabbath, or day of rest. Seven steps led to Solomon's temple, which was built in seven years. The Proverbs extol the Seven Pillars of Wisdom, and throughout the Old Testament, seven recurs as a power number.
In the New Testament, Jesus prescribes that we forgive 70 times 7. In the Book of Revelation, Christ held seven stars in his hand, seven seals are opened, letters are sent to the seven churches, seven trumpets announce the Judgment Day, and seven angels pour out seven bowls of tribulation. There are seven sacraments, seven deadly sins, and seven charisms, or gifts of spirit.
There are seven branches to the Tree of Life in Kabbalistic Judaism. Sufism, the mystical aspect of Islam, states that the mind of God unfolds into the human intellect in a seven-step process. The Buddha sought enlightenment for seven years and circled the Bodhi tree seven times before settling beneath it for his final meditation prior to enlightenment.
Hinduism is also based on a system of sevens, including a medical/philosophical understanding of the lifeforce energy, or prana, that powers the human body. Prana circulates in nadis, similar to acupuncture meridians, that flow into seven wheels of energy called chakras.
In the tradition of the Native American Medicine Wheel, there are seven sacred directions. Beneath our feet is Mother or Grandmother Earth. Above us is Father or Grandfather Sky, the direction of Wakan Tanka, the Great Sacred Mystery. To the East lies the power of the rising sun. To the South lies abundance and creativity. To the West lies transformation. To the North lies wisdom. The seventh direction, where all energies come together, is within our heart.
Get The Latest From InnerSelf
In this book, we will consider how the seven directions and the seven chakras reveal seven paths to God. Although we will discuss these paths in a sequence that may seem linear, one path is no more "advanced" than another. They are simply different expressions, distinct rays of energy that each of us embody.
Path One: The Everyday Mystic
Path One corresponds to the color red, the blood of the womb of our physical mother, and to the fiery womb at the core of Grandmother Earth who nourishes us all. In the tradition of the Medicine Wheel, it represents the Earth, the direction Down. In the language of yoga, Path One flows from the root chakra, the place where the life-force energy is curled like a serpent, waiting to unfold the creative process of life.
Path One is earth-centered, home-centered. It is the domain of what I call the everyday mystic, who sees the Creator in every bush and tree, in the gifts of food and shelter, in nurturing and in the fulfillment of the everyday needs of life. It is the path of gratitude and caretaking of the earth and all her creatures.
The Path-One mystic embodies a trusting, powerful, earth-centered spirituality like that of First Nations People, including the Native Americans. Their tribes had a strong sense of place and a history rooted in a particular geographical area. At one with the physical world around them, they perceived the interconnectedness of all things, the circular nature of the universe, and the rightness of both birth and death in the overall scheme of creation.
Path Two: Generosity of Spirit
Path Two follows the direction South on the Medicine Wheel, the summer season of increase and abundance when the earth bears fruit. This seasonal energy is related to the personal energy of the second chakra: sexuality and birth. Yoga science relates the creative second chakra to the Leydig cells that occur both in the ovaries and the testes. These cells synthesize testosterone and mediate our ability to carve out territory for ourselves, a niche in which we will bring forth the abundance of our soul, offering our gifts to the world.
In this path of creativity and abundance, male and female aspects join. Our male aspect provides the space in which our feminine aspect becomes the womb of creativity. In the Hindu tradition, this is called tantra yoga, the sacred marriage of male and female. The eight books I have authored, the mind/body program I helped develop, and the students I have mentored are the fruits of combining my male and female aspects. Offering these gifts to the world is pure joy, and the energy that comes back to me from those who receive them keeps the creativity flowing. The key to Path Two is generosity of spirit -- being secure enough in ourselves that we can receive from God and give to others in a way that encourages both of us to bring forth our creative gifts.
Path Three: The Passion to Serve
The third path follows the direction East on the Medicine Wheel, the spring season when the life-force returns after winter. In yoga science, this seasonal energy is carried personally within our solar plexus or adrenal center. East is the direction of the rising sun, the new day that brings the energy and power to dream a new world into being. Similarly, the third chakra is the powerhouse of action, the furnace of passion and emotion whose fire fuels our dreams and gives us the stamina to fulfill them. Think of Biblical prophets such as fiery Elijah, feisty martyrs such as Joan of Arc, or modern orators and visionaries such as Martin Luther King. These charismatic people emanate a kind of "fire in the belly," an undeniable passion that can either make people sit up and take notice or run for cover.
The basic question for Path-Three mystics is: "Whom do I serve?" If we serve ourselves, to the exclusion of others, as do dictators and power-hungry zealots such as Hitler, we fall into spiritual peril and are likely to add chaos, rather than creativity, to the universe. If we serve the world, we use our potential as co-creators with God. Path Three is what the Hindus call karma yoga, the path to God -- Union through service.
Path Four: The Way of the Heart
The fourth path follows the seventh direction of the Medicine Wheel: Within, and the fourth chakra, the heart or thymus center. The Path-Four mystic can truly say, "I love the Lord My God with all my heart, soul, and mind, and I love my neighbor as myself." The Hindus call this path bhakti yoga, the way of devotion. One may be devoted to a personal aspect of God such as Krishna, Jesus, Buddha, or the Mother Mary -- or to the realization that, when we see with the eyes of the heart, we can worship God within every person.
Yoga research correlates the heart chakra with the cardiac plexus and the thymus gland. The thymus is an organ of the immune system, and the cells that develop within it are called T -cells. The job of the immune system is to tell self from not-self. It is a boundary organ. In Eastern thought, the thymus regulates the boundary between earth and heaven. The heart chakra is the midpoint between the three lower and three higher energy wheels. It is represented in Hindu iconography by the six-pointed star, which in Judaism is the Star of David, or Solomon's Seal. It symbolizes the downward ray of God's energy, which meets the upward ray of human energy. The heart chakra is thus considered the meeting point of earth and heaven, karma and grace. Path-Four mystics such as Mother Teresa bring about heaven on earth through love.
Path Five: Thy Will, Not Mine, Be Done
The fifth path follows the direction North on the Medicine Wheel, the season of winter in which stories are told and we reflect on the natural order of the universe and our place within it. This impersonal energy of order is reflected personally in the fifth chakra, the throat or thyroid center that represents discipline, will, and responsibility. In Hindu philosophy, this is the path of raja yoga God -- Union by following the specific moral disciplines that preserve the community, honor life, and lead to personal growth. For the observant Jew, it means carrying out the letter of the law as prescribed in the Torah and the Talmud, with one's whole heart and mind.
The Ten Commandments, like the Buddhist precepts for living and the Hindu system of raja yoga, provide a template for using our human will to live in accordance with the divine will. Those who take such commandments to heart struggle with moral dilemmas: Is war ever righteous since it violates the commandment against killing? Is abortion a sin, and is it any less of a sin to bomb an abortion clinic to stop it?
Many Path-Five mystics walk a narrow line between obedience to God and blind zealotry. Like St. Paul, they can be dangerous when doing their own will, but inspired and inspiring when doing God's will. The bottom line for Path Five mystics is whether their acts are kind and compassionate -- not in the abstract, but in the particular moment -- and for the particular person with whom they are interacting.
Path Six: Contemplation and Transformation
The sixth path follows the direction West on the Medicine Wheel, the fall season when the life-force energy withdraws and nature goes to sleep. The abode of the setting sun, west is the direction of the ego death that makes room for rebirth into spirit. This is often accomplished by undergoing a dark night of the soul, like the Buddha, when our old life is left behind and we enter a period of wandering or searching before the sun of enlightenment rises.
When we awaken to our new life, we see things not through our physical eyes, but through the wisdom eye. As Jesus said, "Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is sound, your whole body is full of light; but when it is not sound, your body is full of darkness."'
Yoga science relates the sixth chakra to the pineal gland, a vestigial third eye complete with light receptors, which the French philosopher Rene Descartes called the "seat of the soul." It has long been linked with higher intuition, "medicine," or teaching dreams and visions.
The dark night of transformation calls out the question: "Who am I? Am I just this body, or I am something more?" In answering this question, the Path-Six mystic is called to deep meditation and contemplation. These practices help her to shed the ego's attachments to praise and blame, tragedy and triumph. Through them she develops the contentment, equanimity, and compassion of one who has communed with God and knows the beauty of life, beyond the appearances of suffering and limitation. In the Hindu system, Path Six corresponds to jnana yoga, the path of insight.
Path Seven: The Way of Faith
The seventh path follows the direction Above in the Medicine Wheel, representing the action of Wakan Tanka, the Great Sacred, or the Great Spirit, as it is often translated. In yoga science, it correlates with the seventh, or crown chakra, where the life-force energy enters the body and God becomes manifest in physical form.
Our faith is an important determiner of openness to Spirit. The nature of our faith develops and changes throughout the lifecycle, through the dark nights of the soul when we are challenged to transform, and through the work we do on the different spiritual paths. Eventually we have the faith to recognize that grace is a paradox; apparently wonderful events can curb our growth, while devastating events may spur it. We then receive the higher grace of nonattachment.
If we follow our spiritual path and do the required psychological healing along the way, we set the stage for God Union. But we will never get there through works, for ultimately, God-Union is a grace, the unearned gift of a generous parent to her child. Whether it occurs while we are in this body or when we have been reborn to the Spirit World is not important, nor within our control. And since the state of union is sometimes beyond the capacity of our perceptions, its truest measure is in the kindness, creativity, charity, and compassion that are the fruits of Spirit made manifest in our life.
Your Primary and Secondary Path
We are each working with the energy of all seven directions, all seven chakras, but in my experience each of us has one primary and one secondary, or supporting, path on which we concentrate the majority of our energies. Our primary path is the one through which our major contribution to the world will be made. It comes naturally to us. For instance, Path Two -- creativity and abundance -- represents my work in the world. My greatest joy is to write and teach and to help others recognize and use their gifts. I love to study -- as a doctorate, three postdoctoral fellowships at Harvard Medical School, writing eight books, and being a lifelong learner -- demonstrate. These are natural talents necessary to fulfill my soul purpose. While I had to develop them, the raw material was already there.
My secondary path relates to the seventh direction, Within, or the heart chakra. Our secondary spiritual path is often based on a wound whose healing will develop qualities that we need in support of our primary purpose. All my life I could easily give love, but for reasons stemming from my childhood, felt unworthy to receive it. So the love I gave was of a limited type, calculated to get people to like me. I had trouble giving people honest feedback about behaviors that hurt me, for fear they would be angry with me. I also had to learn that giving people everything they want may disempower them, rather than helping them bring forth their gifts. In order for me to use my gifts as a Path-Two teacher, I had to learn about love, a process that continues to unfold.
In addition to our primary and secondary paths, we also learn to use the energies of the other paths as they are needed to fulfill our purpose. With time you will recognize how working with the different paths can help you develop skills and attitudes that may not be innate, and which you will need at different times in your life and work.

A spokesperson for Georgia's secretary of state's office tells Axios human error is responsible for the outsize number of ballots cast in a northeastern county (670) compared to how many voters were registered beforehand (276), numbers which McClatchy's Christine Condon reported this week.
Why it matters: That's not Georgia's only election problem. At least one of the state's county websites has been a target of Russian hacking attempts, according to a Mueller indictment. Cybersecurity experts have found vulnerabilities in an election server in the state, and court filings in a federal suit, brought by cybersecurity experts against the state, allege several issues with the state's voting machines and voter registration.

hey guys jus lookin for a little info jus bought a redcat rampage mt pro an i know there a a bit of diferance in the base an pro model s ok with that said they seem real slugish off the line what can i do to get a lil more pop off the line gear set s clutch spring s give me some links guys ty
well to start out put a 8k clutch spring in it and put a walbro carb on it 668 or 990 and a ddm dominator pipe will wake it up over the stock tuned pipe
I agree with what Chad has stated. A good pipe, like the DDM Dominator for the Rampage and an 8k rpm Clutch spring will help considerably. If that isn't enough then I would consider a carb change, especially if you are running into any tuning issues.
Clutch spring 8000 is defantley a huge improvement over stock.

Grow Your Own Salad Start Some Seeds Inside today!
Thinking of having a Home Garden this year? What about growing your own Salad? Amazon has a few really cool Grow your own Salad Kits available. Many people are deciding to take the plunge and deciding to grow some of their own vegetables this year. Growing salad ingredients would be a great place to start.
You could make a hotbed for your salad garden. That's what my Grandma used to do, all she had was a square wooden box with an old window she had hinged to the back so she could open it up when the weather turned warmer. That's on my list to make this year. Grandma's favorite lettuce to grow was Buttercrush. It was delish! She would make the best salad with it. I'll give you her recipe at the end.
First you would want to start in the early spring for fresh greens in your salad, they like the colder weather. You might then add some peas to the garden that would add nicely to your salad. Spinach is especially nice in a salad as well as other dishes. Then it would be time to get some tomato plants to add to your garden.
If you have never had a fresh from the garden tomato, then put this at the top of the list of plants to buy, because you will never taste anything more delicious and you can't buy them at the store and it will be on your plant list every year once you have grown one of your very own.
Indoor Salad Garden Starter Kit: Seeds, Growing Dome, Instructions & More: Grow Arugula, Mizuna, Chard, Lettuce & More
They have many varieties of tomatoes plants you can buy. I recommend the Sweet Cherry Tomatoes as they are so easy to grow and great for a salad. You can grow them in a big container or in your garden and if you live in a mild climate they will come back next year.
Growing your own garden is a very fun hobby and it will benefit you and your family. Enjoying the outdoors while tending the garden will also put a smile on your face when you are eating you first Home Grown Salad from your very own garden.
Grandma Clara's Wilted Lettuce Salad
Fresh Buttercrunch Lettuce- or whatever kind you have even spinach
White Vinegar 1 tablespoon
2 or 3 pieces Bacon and some of the leftover grease from frying the bacon
1 Tablespoon of Sugar
a couple Green Onions
Large Bowl for Salad
Wash your lettuce really good and set aside to drain. Fry your bacon until crisp. Save the grease that's in the frying pan from cooking the bacon. Now put your Salad in the bowl, Cut up your green onions add Sugar and Vinegar and 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease. Then mix together and serve. I love this! You can add salt and pepper if you like even mix in some cucumber and carrots slices. Whatever floats your boat. I really like it to keep it simple.
Happy Salad Growing!

Review | Heat: A Dragon Romance (Dark Kings # 12)
Title: Heat
Author: Donna Grant
Series: A Dark Kings Novel #12
Pub Date: January 30, 2018
Genre: Fantasy Romance
Page Lenth: 336 pages
He knew her round eyes and the deep shade of brown along with the band of black that encircled her irises. He knew the slope of her breasts, the indent of her waist, and the flare of her hips. He knew the way she preferred to wear muted colors to help her blend in with a crowd. It had taken one look to put all that to memory, but he found his eyes going to her again and again as if he couldn't get enough.
Nikolai is a dragon shapeshifter who knows well the meaning of loss. Orphaned and raised to be a Dragon King, he never accepts defeat. Now, Nikolai prefers his solitude. . .until a beautiful, irresistible woman calls upon him for help—and Nikolai's whole world goes up in flames.
Ever since MI5 agent Esther woke to discover her mind taken over with magic, she feels like a stranger to herself. She looks to a notorious dragon, one who has the power to help her find her memory. But as she and Nikolai come closer to discovering what really happened to her, a dangerous passion ignites between them. Can this lone Dragon King help the woman he's grown to love to uncover the truth about her past—or will a deep and fiery danger tear them both apart in Heat, the next Dark Kings novel by New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant.
Only thing I knew going into this book was what the synopsis on Net Galley website had posted. Going by that alone, this book sounded good. I made it through the first chapter okay! But all that changed in the middle of the second chapter, when the two main characters meet then everything started to feel strange like I was missing out on something. Went on to Goodreads and low and behold, I realized that Heat is book #12 of Donna Grant "A Dark Kings" series.
You're probably wondering if this story could be read as a stand-alone? My answer. No, this title can't be read as a stand-alone. However, I did complete the story. Only so I can give my honest opinion about this title. The world that Donna Grant created was fun. The characters too were well created and the predicaments that the characters found themselves, advance the story without slowing the tempo too much. As, a whole, I found this story just okay. The story for what it's worth keep my attention. After the story was over, it was over.
If you found pleasure in watching or reading the Hobbit and, or The Lord of the Rings. You would surprisingly enjoy this title.
Dark Kings ( 12 Book Series)
In Darkest Flame by Donna Grant, the Dark Kings have fought for centuries to preserve their dragon magic. But one of the most powerful warriors of his kind will be put to the ultimate test. Is he strong enough to resist his greatest temptations? Or will he be forced to surrender—body and soul?

School children have been busy creating two more themed mosaics as part of a community effort to brighten up Sleaford railway station and encourage the use of more sustainable transport alternatives.
St Andrew's Primary School in Heckington and Church Lane Primary School in Sleaford have been working with Sustrans Schools Officer Jon Moody and Sleaford ceramic artist Louise Hill to research and come up with designs for the two eye-catching mosaics officially unveiled on the pedestrian footbridge at the station last Tuesday.
They join two panels previously made by schools along the Poacher Line, between Skegness and Nottingham.
The latest schools had been working on topics which fed into the designs and a pop-up exhibition of their work was put on display in the station waiting room for the unveiling and may appear at the Ministry of Transport at an event in Westminster in September.
Church Lane Year 5 teacher Jason Barrett explained children visited historical places and researched how Sleaford developed from Victorian to Second World War, turning that into an art project using computers, sketching and collage before incorporating that into the mosaic design.
He said: "In the mosaic we have included the new mosque and St Denys' Church to show how multi-cultural Sleaford is."
They developed close ties with Sleaford Islamic Centre and everyone at the unveiling was invited to look around the new building and see a display of correspondence with the school. The children dressed as evacuees for the unveiling due to the link with railways.
Heckington School class teacher Nicola Coogan said her year 4 class had done a project called 'I Am Warrior' based on the Romans and designed their mosaic on that theme having looked around their village and made drawings and notes of landmarks. They arrived by train dressed in Roman togas.
Volunteers supporting the scheme had held a Community Action Day at Heckington station that morning, sprucing it up ready for Heckington Show weekend.
Kaye Robinson, Community Rail Partnership Officer, said: "We had a really great turn out of local people and East MidlandsTrains volunteers. Jobs included a lick of paint on fencing, shelter cleaning, bike stand cleaning, weeding and putting bunting up."

A photographer donned his goggles and swimming cap on Wednesday to swim for 12 hours as part of an effort to raise £2,000 for SportsAble.
Ian Legge, of Farm Road, Maidenhead completed a 10km swim along the Jubilee River in June and a 14km down the Thames earlier this month as part of his fundraising challenge for the disability sports charity, based in Braywick Road.
He plunged into the Magnet Leisure Centre pool at 9am to begin his final and most gruelling test.
The 48-year-old swam for two hours at a time, stopping for 10 minute breaks to refuel.
He was set to keep going until 10pm and expected to swim the equivalent of the English Channel.
He said before starting: "I've got energy drinks lined up but I've got to go to the loo as well because I can't go in the pool!"
SportsAble spokeswoman Melissa Paulden said: "Ian joined early on last year as a volunteer photographer but has been a massive supporter and fundraiser ever since."

LANCASTER, Pa. – A trio of Ursinus College women's soccer players received honorable mention on the All-Centennial Conference team released Thursday by the league office.
Mackenzie Groff, Sabrina Doherty, and Kayla O'Malley were all recognized for their efforts in leading the Bears to their first winning season since 2015.
A senior forward, Groff ends her career with her first all-conference honor after posting team highs of six goals and 13 points. The co-captain started all 17 games and scored twice in two of them, including the season opener at Keystone and again against Penn State Brandywine. Three of Groff's goals were game-winners, and she assisted on freshman Kelly Gardus' go-ahead strike in a 1-0 victory over Washington College on October 24.
Groff finished her career ranked seventh in program history in goals (16) and ninth in points (39).
Doherty received All-CC honorable mention for the second year in a row. Cementing her status as one of the league's top goaltenders, Doherty tops the CC with 86 saves while placing third in save percentage (.835) and seventh in goals-against average (1.04). She notched six solo shutouts to run her career total to eight. Doherty had a pair of games with double-digit saves and even posted an assist in the season finale against Bryn Mawr.
O'Malley caps her first collegiate season by becoming only the third freshman in school history – and the first since Jess Porcelan in 2008 – to earn all-conference laurels. The rookie anchored a defense that tallied seven clean sheets and allowed only 18 goals in 17 games. O'Malley started every contest and notched her first career point on an assist in a 1-0 victory over Alvernia on September 26.
Additionally, sophomore midfielder Angela Gervasi was named to the All-Sportsmanship Team. Gervasi started 16 games and was second on the team with four goals, including one against No. 4 Johns Hopkins and two more in the finale against Bryn Mawr.

Cathy Freeman first international torch-bearer
Australian runner Cathy Freeman will be the first international torch-bearer for the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad, to be held in Athens from 13 to 29 August 2004. The torch will be lit in Olympia, (Peloponnese) Greece, in spring 2004.
Traditional method of lighting the torch
The way in which the Olympic torch is lit in Olympia, at the same place where the Ancient Games took place, is steeped in tradition. The sun's rays and a parabolic mirror are used to ignite the Olympic flame.
By plane to Sydney
After the lighting in Olympia, several runners will carry the torch through Greece before it travels by plane to Sydney. There, Cathy Freeman, who lit the Olympic cauldron at the 2000 Sydney Games, will be the first international torch-bearer, followed by more than 10,000 runners on all the five continents.
Great symbol
The torch and the Olympic flame are two of the greatest symbols of Olympism. The origin of the Olympic flame goes back to the Ancient Olympic Games, through the course of which a sacred flame burned continuously at the altar of Zeus.
Since 1936
Now an integral part of Olympic tradition, the torch and relay appeared at the modern Olympic Games for the first time at the 1936 Games in Berlin.

Christine von Scheidt (Munich)
& Franky Doo (Stuttgart)
Christine has been dancing for more than 35 years , 21 of those having been in Lindy!
Focusing on the fun and social aspect of the dance, her main goal has been and still is to build up the Munich Swing scene. She runs her own dance studio and is teaching Lindy Hop, Balboa, Blues, Burlesque, Vintage Jazz and Ladies' Styling.
Her passion for Swing music has resulted in creating a Lindy performance group that particularly enjoys doing gigs with live Big Bands such as the Glenn Miller Big Band.
She has been at Camp Canary almost every year since it was started and loved it sooooo much that she kept it running - and still is supporting the current organisation team with her experience.
Franky Doo's number one goal is to make everybody dance, dance, dance... and dance :)
Whether he is DJ-ing at events, ranging from local social dances to international festivals, playing the banjo in his unique Swing-Duo The Hot Jazz Rewinders or counting those well-known numbers at you in class - his energy is always contagious, his appearance is always stylish and his skills are always convincing!
He is an experienced trainer in Lindy Hop, Authentic Jazz and Collegiate Shag with a strong focus on giving his students simple but effective moves, patterns and strategies for the social dance floor.
Christine and Frank believe that things don't need to be overly complicated to have fun on the social dancefloor: There are two directions in which you can turn, two sides on which you can pass by your partner and luckily everyone comes with a maximum of two hands to connect :-)
In their classes you will learn how to apply this simple approach to your own dance experience!

IT Cosmetics Faces Backlash for Its Lack of Foundation Shades
Another one.
Following the recent Tarte controversy, it is clear that customers are looking at brands to offer a wider range of shades, and are quick to point out when diversity is lacking. After Rihanna's Fenty Beauty caused a stir in the beauty community, several brands have been questioned for not including a range of shades, and IT Cosmetics is the latest label under fire for a lack of inclusivity in its products.
When the beauty brand revealed its new Bye Bye Foundation on Instagram, followers were quick to point out the lack of shades showcased in the colour matching chart that ranged from "Fair" to "Deep." After Refinery 29 reached out to the brand, a representative explained that they are "working on a new complexion product that will be available in 40+ shades early next year," which is an excuse that has been used many times before.
Following the praise of Fenty Beauty's inclusive foundation line and Kylie Jenner's eponymous Kylie Cosmetics 30-shade concealer range, we can only hope that brands will continue to become more inclusive in the near future. Don't miss our round-up of five foundations all women of color should try, while you're at it.
Coming soon… IT's time to say Bye Bye to foundation! Meet the most clinically advanced innovation: Bye Bye Foundation is the first-ever full coverage moisturizer from IT Cosmetics! It's a skincare product, infused with 7 key fermented ingredients plus SPF 50 physical-only sunscreen and full coverage pigments. It's a moisturizer that will transform the look of your skin whether you deal with sensitive skin, dark spots, visible pores, breakouts, redness and more. It's a moisturizer unlike anything that exists. Typically SPF moisturizers with physical-only sunscreens have only been possible in a few shades — and at IT Cosmetics we've spent the past 2 years creating 12 skin-tone adapting shades for this moisturizer (3 Light, 3 Medium, 3 Tan and 3 Rich). And we continue to work hard to challenge this further. Can't wait for you to try it! ??SWIPE ?? right to see IT…

About The Teacher
After getting first impressions about Yoga while traveling through India in the 1990s I started taking Hatha Yoga classes with Jutta Qu'ja Hartmann in the year 2000 at Cologne University, Germany, the place where I had grown up.
Having already 10 years of experience in Yoga practice I got certified for teaching at the Sivananda Kutir in Netala, Himalayas of India in 2010. In the following years until now i've been trying to keep myself continuously evolving through my own regular practice as well as various courses and trainings that i participate in. Over the years I was exposed to many different Yoga styles and influenced by various teachers, amongst them internationally renowned yogis, such as Simon Borg Olivier's Synergy Style and the rich teachings of Richard Freeman.
After completing a teacher training with Kristina Karitinou in September 2014 I also started teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga.
In my teaching I like to emphasize the cultivation of awareness, breathing and alignment, adjusting to the individual student's needs.
In 2005 I was first initiated in the Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N.Goenka.
I fluently speak German, Greek, Spanish and English.

Methodology - Recent Updates:
Data from private listing sites, including our own, tends to skew toward luxury apartments, which introduces sample bias when estimates are calculated directly from these listings. To address these limitations, we've recently made major updates to our methodology, which we believe have greatly improved the accuracy and reliability of our estimates.
Read more about our new methodology below, or see a more detailed post here.
Apartment List is committed to making our rent estimates the best and most accurate available. To do this, we start with reliable median rent statistics from the Census Bureau, then extrapolate them forward to the current month using a growth rate calculated from our listing data. In doing so, we use a same-unit analysis similar to Case-Shiller's approach, comparing only units that are available across both time periods to provide an accurate picture of rent growth in cities across the country.
Our approach corrects for the sample bias inherent in other private sources, producing results that are much closer to statistics published by the Census Bureau and HUD. Our methodology also allows us to construct a picture of rent growth over an extended period of time, with estimates that are updated each month.
Read more about our methodology here.
About Rent Reports:
Apartment List publishes monthly reports on rental trends for hundreds of cities across the U.S. We intend these reports to be a source of reliable information that help renters and policymakers make sound decisions, and we invest significant time and effort in gathering and analyzing rent data. Our work is covered regularly by journalists across the country.
We are continuously working to improve our methodology and data, with the goal of providing renters with the information that they need to make the best decisions.

At Novotny, We Service What We Sell—And More!
Novotny is more than just a store—it's also a service center. When you need any kind of mechanical work done to your hardware, be it your lawn equipment, your pool, your snowmobile, or anything else you might find here, the expert technicians at Novotny are here to get the job done right.
Explore some of the services we offer, and the ways we can help make your life easier.
Small Engine Repair and Other Maintenance Work
Here at Novotny, we service what we sell! For any piece of equipment that you'd find in our store, we have expert technicians on hand who have years of experience working with and repairing that equipment.
Our professionals have more than just hands-on experience to qualify them, though. Novotny Sales Inc. is a member of the Illinois Association of Snowmobile Clubs, Inc. and the Johnsburg Area Business Association. Members of our staff have received Certificates of Completion for the 2009 Power Equipment Company Honda C.B.U. Service School, the 2009 Honda General Purpose Engine Clinic, and the 2008 Husqvarna Equipment Update School.
Maybe most notably, Novotny's small engine department performs tune-ups, repairs, and other maintenance work on most brands of power equipment, as well as service handheld equipment from Husqvarna and Redmax. That means we can take apart the engine in your chainsaw, your lawn mower, your wood chipper, or your snow thrower—if it has an engine and looks like something we'd have here, you can bet we can figure out what's wrong with it (though whether we can fix it may depend on the availability of necessary parts). Bring in your unit in the spring and we'll even give it a complete spring tune-up from the ground up.
In addition, we also perform blade sharpenings for equipment like lawn mowers and chainsaws. When you've noticed that these units don't cut as cleanly anymore and aren't serving their purpose well, your first instinct may be to start looking for replacements, but that may not be necessary. Sharpen the blade, and your old unit may be good as new.
Novotny Sales will also gladly service your Arctic Cat snowmobile. Since Novotny focuses in exclusively on this brand of snowmobile, we know them inside and out, better than just about anyone else. If your snowmobile isn't an Arctic Cat, give us a call and inquire about whether our mechanic can service it. Our shop rate is $76/hour.
Pick-up and delivery services are also available for all equipment that we service and repair. If you don't have a convenient way of getting your riding mower, snowmobile, or other equipment here, we can come by and pick it up for you, so you don't have to worry about it.
Pool Services
One of Novotny's specialties is swimming pools. In addition to selling and installing these above ground pools, though, Novotny also offers a wide selection of pool services to take care of all your maintenance needs.
A big part of the pool services we provide is opening and closing pools at the beginning and end of pool season. Opening a pool at the start of the season can be a complicated task. Not only do you have to remove the cover, turn on the systems that cycle, filter, chlorinate, and heat your water, and make sure that they work, but you also have to create the proper chemical balance in the pool water by mixing the right proportions of chlorine, algaecide, and/or whatever else your pool needs.
Closing a pool at the end of the season can be just as much of a process. The pool water needs to be drained, all the electrical systems need to be shut off, and a cover has to be put in place. Not only that, but with the high winds and other inclement weather we've had the past several years, you may also want to consider shrink wrapping your pool cover to ensure a tight seal that insulates it from the elements. Novotny can take care of all of this for you, and you can schedule your pool openings and closings in advance by filling out our service request forms.
Of course, those aren't the only times your pool may need maintenance. Depending on your pool's dimensions and how much you use it, we recommend either weekly or bi-weekly service visits. Our pool technician will vacuum up debris, clean the filter, and adjust the water's chemical balance. We can also perform these visits to maintain your pool while you're away on vacation.
There's also the possibility that something may break or otherwise need maintenance or repair. We can inspect and clean your electrical cover, change the sand in your filter, and fix or replace your pump, liner, heater, or other pool components as needed.
Other Miscellaneous Services
In addition to repair and maintenance, Novotny also performs a variety of other miscellaneous services which you might expect from a hardware store. These include services like key cutting, glass cutting, and pipe threading. We also provide propane refills. Whether you have a 20lb container, a 100lb container, or even an RV or mobile home, we can fulfill your propane needs.
So, whatever your seasonal hardware needs, whether your lawnmower needs its blades sharpened, your snowmobile needs its motor repaired, your pool needs its water chemically balanced, or you need some propane for your next big RV trip, come by Novotny Sales, the one-stop shop where you'll find it all!
