Yesterday we practiced at our new temporary space for the first time. This place is a major upgrade from what we've had before. Tim's old place was....., old. The walls leaked whenever it rained and the place would smell of mold when it was wet. The only bathroom was marginal. The walls in the practice room had been broken by falling yogis and then repaired so many times they were little more than tape, plaster and paint in some places. There was only one way in or out of the studio. But funky as it was, it was what we all knew. If it weren't for the moldiness, which was just too oppressive this year, it could have been okay for longer. But they were looking for a fresher, larger space, maybe with some room for retail sales. They wanted to have two bathrooms, better heating and ventilation, just reasonable amenities. They are in negotiations for a brand new space in a local shopping area. Until then, however, since the lease on the old place expired, they had to get some temporary place for us to practice. Not as easy a thing as you might think. Our first transitional space, a dungeon-like conference room at the end of the parking garage of the local Best Western hotel, was very similar to Tim's original space, except without the mold. It was dark and dingy and had only one bathroom with a leaky toilet (always a favorite thing to have to deal with: you're not supposed to wear shoes or slippers in the studio but the floor around the toilet is always wet) but it did have one amenity Tim's old place didn't: it was the world's capital of daddy long leg spiders. It was also constructed with a bit of M.C. Escher-like optical illusion, with the walls and carpet all appearing to come together at less than square angles, which could sometimes discombobulate you for a moment or two as you tried to figure out how to align yourself for a particular pose.
The new temporary space, however, is just plain nice. It's a yoga studio that the prior tenants were not going to be able to keep going. Tim was able to swing some kind of sublet/lease share for a few months. It has a carpet, which I like but I know some prefer wood floors. It is in the main area of old Encinitas, close to Tim's old studio site. It's a hundred yards from Starbuck's, for better or worse. It's a big space and it has no warts at all that I can see. Tim and his wife Carol have been working hard on getting a new lease for over a year. They ultimately decided it would be better to start with a brand new space, built out they way they wanted it, than to take over some older studio or to try and renovate some space that was being used for something else. So, when I announced to Tim all of five minutes into class that I really liked this place and that they should take it over permanently instead of going with the spot they are currently negotiating for, he gave me a dark look and quickly reeled off an impressive list of potential negatives, none of which registered with me. It was just so nice to finally have nice to practice in.
We do have to share the space with the previous yoga studio however. Tim's schedule, as I understand it, will be as he has always had it. The other tenants will have to schedule their classes around Tim's. All well and good. But when I was looking over the June schedule for the other studio's classes, I noticed that they had classes scheduled on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 9:15. Unfortunately, that is when Tim usually does his self-practice, and that is when I had been counting on being able to practice on the days when I couldn't get to Mysore at 7:00. Tim also has a big workshop coming up in June in which he will be using the space from noon to five each day for two weeks. The other folks have classes in that time frame too. Hopefully, the conflicts can be worked out without conflict, but whatever it takes to get me my practice times.
One quirk of the new studio popped up about half way though my practice when I went to do one of the Kapotasana research poses we usually do. I was going into a wall supported version of Viparita Dandasana, where the feet are placed on the wall at about hip level rather than lowering them all the way down to the floor. Tim stopped me and made me come down. I was thinking he was going to tell me not to use the wall with my feet because we were only subleting the place and he didn't want us leaving footprints all over the nice clean walls. Turns out, on the other side of the wall is a curio shop with various clocks and vases and expensive gewgaws on shelves and on the wall. When people have plopped up against the wall in the past doing supported inversions like handstands, some of those items ended up getting knocked down. He mentioned that the other store's proprietors didn't like that very much and would come over to let the yoga people know about it. I guess it's okay to do inversions against the wall on the opposite side of the yoga studio though. On the other side of that wall is just a shoe store, so we should be able to whale away at it without causing too much damage.
Despite being the very first day in a new location, the room was packed. I guess some of the folks who hadn't come as much when we were at the Best Western were just waiting for a place that was free of mildew and spider webs. It will be interesting to see if the students who stopped coming to Tim's and started going to the other new ashtanga studio will now come back to practicing at Tim's.
My practice yesterday was another upbeat one. Nothing was real standout but it was just good overall. I did get all the way down in Hanumanasana on both sides and was able to fold forward as well, although the forward bend was incomplete and off center too. I am unable to fully square the hips so I still sickle my back leg a fair amount . It's a lot better than it was just a few weeks ago though. This was the first time in a long, long time that my neuromuscular/central nervous system feedback loop was not screaming at me to pull out of the pose after more than a few seconds. Usually the internal dialogue in the pose is something along the lines of:
groins/hams: Okay, easy there, that's far enough big boy.
me: I haven't even straightened my leg yet
groins/hams: So? Hey! Hey, Hey, HEY! Hold on, I said go slow.
me: I am. just a little bit more today... almost near the floor...
groins/hams: well, that's plenty far enough for today thank you. Iyengar wasn't bent in a day you know. Time to do something else
me: yeah, ok, ok, let me just try to see if I can....
groins/hams: OMFG!! what the hell do you think you're doing? I'm dying! AAAAUUGH! Please stop. plz, plz, plz, pleeeeze, just stop it. You said you were going to stop!!
me: I never said I was going to stop. you did. There, I touched down. Ooooh, that's intense. Now, let's see if I can just fold forward over my leg...
groins/hams: AAAUUGH!! you dirty motherf#%#er! stop this crap NOW. You're not some teen aged mother f%#%ing cheerleader!! You're a god damned 48 year old gynecologist!! you don't need to be doing the splits. GET YOUR STIFF ASS OUT OF THIS RIGHT NOW YOU...... (remainder of expletive discussion deleted)
Then I would do the other side. Yesterday was more amicable. I was able to just be in it with out the neuromuscular stretch receptors going into panic mode.
I'm getting better binds in Pasasana lately too. I don't think I've lost weight, which I thought I would need to do to be able to get back to where I was before. I guess my shoulders and my quadratus muscles are letting me twist better lately. Wouldn't hurt to lose some weight though. I can't help wonder if I wouldn't be better able to jump back, twist and bind, etc., if I weighed what I did twenty years ago (and 30 pounds ago). Odds are good we'll never know.
I ran out of energy again around Karandavasana. I gave it a few tries then let Tim help me do it. He did get me down into it and then let go. I initially started to tilt toward my butt but he repositioned me and I held the pose on my own momentarily before he yanked me up and out of the pose. As hard a time as I'm having getting into the pose, I'm going to have an infinitely harder time ever getting out of it.
Viparita Chakrasana was more of the same. My first couple of drop overs were not quiet but I did okay with my next two tries. I went on and did the drop over and then stand ups and then Vrshikasana on my own. I then stood at the front of the mat to wait for the assisted drop backs. Tim came up and gave me a questioning look, "Viparita Chakrasana?" "I did", I told him, "but not coming back over on my own." He pointed to the back of the mat and we did it all over again. When I was doing the initial drop overs on my own, as I was repositioning myself to try and hop back up and over, I was looking straight down at the floor and it struck me that if I hopped upward and did the needed arching through of my chest but didn't make it and fell, I could potentially land with all of my weight directly over my chin and neck. Comforting thought. Not surprisingly, I had pretty feeble attempts at coming back over. But I didn't fall this time.
Today I did the 6:00 Mysore class at the other studio. For some reason, I wasn't moving through things as efficiently today. When I finished my try at Karandavasana, my last pose before closing, it was almost 7:00. I did three quick backbends and blew off most of the closing sequence so that I could get to work on time. Good thing too because there was a snafu on one of the railroad crossings nearby that routed a lot of traffic that would normally go on the coast road onto the the road that I take to get on the free way. I lost about ten minutes crawling along that 2 mile stretch and made it to work with no time to spare.
All the good practices had to be followed by a less than stellar one at some point and I guess today was that day. I wasn't able to do a lot of things that I typically can do or that I had been able to do just the day before. I couldn't get down easily on either side in Hanumanasana (groins/hams: "see, you need us, you're not going anywhere unless we let you, so next time LISTEN when we say stop!!"), I couldn't land any of my attempts at Bakasana B, Kapotasana was shallow, I never once was able to fold over to any degree in Karandavasana. It was just one of those off days. I didn't attach too much to it. I had stayed up till around midnight reading. I woke up several times before finally getting up at 5:15 to get showered. Doing the class in that kind of rush mode setting is off-putting, I almost expect it to not be a good class. I just want to get it in, keep it going. Hopefully, I'll put an end to this blog post soon and get to bed so that I can get up and go tomorrow as well. That will be first series if I go. I'll have to figure out what to do to get it all done in 60 - 70 minutes: leave stuff out, like leaving out the closing poses today or go really, really fast. Or just sleep in.

The most striking characteristic of Platon's elegant "Portraits of Power" was its depiction of power as masculine (Portfolio, December 7th). Of the dozens of faces chosen to represent power across the world, only three were those of women. While we might like to think that gender inequality is behind us, Platon's portraits show us that this is not so. Quite frankly, I found the clarity and the accuracy of this representation somewhere between disheartening and terrifying. As a woman working in a male-dominated discipline, I look forward to the year when The New Yorker can print a similar picture of power embodied in females' faces.

Remaining in EU 'still on the table' after court ruling
The European Court of Justice found that the UK can unilaterally revoke Article 50.
Remaining in the EU is "still on the table" after the European Court of Justice ruled that the UK can unilaterally revoke its withdrawal from the EU, cross-party politicians have said.
Labour MEP Catherine Stihler, one of those who brought the case, said the ruling "paves the way for the disastrous Brexit process to be brought to a halt".
The case was brought forward in February by a group of Scottish politicians – Labour MEPs Ms Stihler and David Martin, the SNP's Joanna Cherry MP and Alyn Smith MEP, Green MSPs Andy Wightman and Ross Greer, and lawyer Jolyon Maugham QC, director of the Good Law Project.
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) found that if the UK does decide to revoke Article 50 and stop the Brexit process, it would remain in the EU as a member state and the revocation must be decided following "democratic process".
The ECJ ruling issued on Monday comes ahead of Tuesday's crunch vote on Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said that extending Article 50 to allow for another vote and then revoking it if the outcome was Remain now seemed an option open to the House of Commons.
Mr Smith said: "Our case has confirmed, once and for all and from the highest court in the business, that the UK can indeed change its mind on Brexit and revoke Article 50 unilaterally.
"The timing is sublime. As colleagues in the House of Commons consider Mrs May's disastrous deal, we now have a road map out of this Brexit shambles.
"A bright light has switched on above an exit sign."
So an extension of Article 50 to allow time for another vote, followed by revocation of Article 50 if the outcome is Remain seems to be an option that is now open to the House of Commons. #ECJ— Nicola Sturgeon (@NicolaSturgeon) December 10, 2018
Ms Cherry said the ruling was a "huge victory" for Scottish parliamentarians and Scottish courts, while Mr Wightman called it a "welcome decision".
Ms Stihler said: "This historic ruling paves the way for the disastrous Brexit process to be brought to a halt.
"We now know, beyond any doubt, that Westminster can revoke its withdrawal from the European Union.
"This has been a lengthy and expensive legal process, but the result proves that it was worthwhile.
"When MPs vote on Theresa May's Brexit deal, they now know they can ultimately choose to stop Brexit and keep the best deal we currently have as a full member of the EU.
"I am increasingly confident that is what will happen if MPs agree to a People's Vote, which is what the country now urgently needs."
#ECJ: UK is free to unilaterally revoke the notification of its intention to withdraw from the EU – Case C-621/18 Wightman #Brexit pic.twitter.com/KUOI2eQ48C— EU Court of Justice (@EUCourtPress) December 10, 2018
Ms Sturgeon tweeted: "Important judgment from ECJ – Article 50 can be unilaterally revoked by UK.
"So an extension of Article 50 to allow time for another vote, followed by revocation of Article 50 if the outcome is Remain seems to be an option that is now open to the House of Commons."
The Scottish Government said the ruling provided another option apart from the Prime Minister's deal or no deal.
Constitutional Relations Secretary Michael Russell MSP said: "This is a hugely important decision that provides clarity at an essential point in the UK's decision-making over its future relationship with the EU.
"People in Scotland overwhelmingly voted to remain in the EU and that continues to be the best option for Scotland and the UK as a whole.
"This judgment exposes as false the idea that the only choice is between a bad deal negotiated by the UK Government or the disaster of no deal.
"We now know, thanks to the efforts of Scotland's parliamentarians, that remaining in the EU is still on the table."

Develop a policy to counter malpractices in the education sector – that is a call from Prof. Esther Sakyi-Dawson, Director of Academic Quality Assurance at the University of Ghana.
The Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana last Saturday expressed worry over the increasing spate of students using dishonest means to acquire degrees. Prof Ernest Aryeetey said "there are far too many Ghanaians who claim to have certificates that they do not have…there are far too many Ghanaians in public spaces who have certificates they acquired illegitimately".
Speaking on MultiTV's AM Show on Monday, Prof. Sakyi-Dawson said cases of cheating students and plagiarism go beyond the individual universities adding there is a need for a policy direction to address the phenomenon.
She said the university may do its best but the trend is widespread.
According Prof. Sakyi-Dawson, another worrying trend is the incidence of people advertising that they can write long essays or thesis for students. "So what are the policies that are in place that this cannot be allowed" she quizzed. She added some students pay so much to let others write their dissertations only to find out the work is plagiarized.
The Academic Quality Assurance Director at the University of Ghana said "as lecturers we do know the writing style of our students, so when the student presents the work and it looks above their writing style, you can immediately tell". She disclosed that people's degrees have been taken away from them as a result of such acts.
She urged employers to do due diligence when hiring, disclosing "We have all these online unaccredited bogus universities who award degrees for absolutely no work done".
She said if employers are not convinced about certificates employees present, they could send it back to the universities they claim they got them from.

I've been training life coaches at the iNLP Center for 20 years and I can say this: Curiosity may be the most important mindset for life coaches.
I'll explain why in this post, as well as how to boost your own curiosity and thus become a better life coach (or whatever you happen to be).
No guru-recommendations in this post, but real research into the mindset of curiosity. Life coaches should pay close attention.
The Power of Curiosity in Life Coaching
Curiosity is historically known for its power to motivate learning. George Loewenstein (1994) describe curiosity as an information gap that creates a cognitive deprivation. Interestingly, this sense of deprivation can lead people to do all kinds of things to fill the gap, including paying cold, hard cash for it.
Life coaches should be that curious! Our job is to learn every relevant thing about our clients so we can facilitate their desired transformation. With no curiosity, there can be no real learning about clients. How can we be helpful in that case?
Curious People Make Better Leaders
The Center for Curiosity Research shows that curious types are more admired and make better leaders. In fact, they guarantee that if you're curious, you will be looked up to and admired.
Life coaches are not in the business of coaching in order to be admired (hopefully). Still, when clients do admire you, they trust you with their process. This is one of the keys to success in life coaching, for both the client and the coach.
How to Cultivate Curiosity on Purpose
You probably didn't need to be convinced that curiosity is good for life coaches. You might need a reminder to consciously enter a curious mindset when you are seeing clients. Don't wait to see if clients draw the curiosity out of you. Enter the mindset intentionally.
Before each client, take a few minutes to relax. This is so important and I know how easy it is to skip this mental preparation. But you and your clients deserve it. They're paying you to be at your best. So, chill.
Then, consciously intend to be curious about your client during the life coaching session. Not so hard, right?
Finally, remember or imagine a time when you were curious. Step into it. Feel it. This comes of the NLP model called accessing states – a set of tools that helps you enter any mindset at will. Check out a student story on accessing states at this iNLP Center blog.
Don't be a bored (or boring) life coach. The best life coaches (who make the most money) are curious souls.
Curiosity! Own it.

We offer the following types of Insurance:
Term Life Insurance
Term insurance can often be the best choice for life insurance protection since it can meet your clients' needs now and fit comfortably with their budget. These policies are commonly issued for specified periods, such as ten or 20 years.
Whole Life Insurance
A whole life insurance policy is designed to provide insurance protection for life, with a built-in savings element, provided premiums are paid as specified in the policy.
Universal Life Insurance
Universal life insurance combines permanent life insurance protection with a tax-advantaged investment component. As cash value accumulates, you can use it to pay part or all of your insurance charges.
Disability Insurance
Disability insurance can provide you with financial security by replacing a portion of your earnings when an accident or illness causes you to become disabled and unable to work or earn an income. Accidents and illnesses are a fact of life. They could happen to anyone at any time. 1 in 3 people, on average, will be disabled for 90 days or longer at least once before age 65. The average length of a disability that lasts over 90 days is 2.9 years. Both personal and business disability insurance solutions are available that offer flexibility and features to help bridge the gap between income and expenses during a disability.
Critical Illness
Critical Illnesses happen every day, to young and old alike. Critical Illness Insurance, which can help your clients to protect their assets, savings and business from the high recovery expenses associated with surviving a critical illness. This insurance covers from 4 – 24 critical illnesses or conditions, and provides a lump sum benefit to protect your client and their family's lifestyle, replace lost income, keep the client's business going during their recovery period, along with many more important financial situations
Long Term Care
Canadians are living longer today than previous generations. While this is positive, it presents a greater responsibility for financing the long term care required by elderly Canadians. Nursing facilities and home care costs are expensive, and it is difficult to budget for unknown lengths of time. In Ontario, a privately owned facility can cost over $40,000 annually. Add to this the costs of incidentals that may not be covered under government plans, such as wheelchairs or special therapy costs, and an elderly Canadian's finances may not last the length of time needed.

The thing about Bipolar Disorder is that to maintain any sort of stability at all there is this complex dance between your meds and you. On an upswing, slight medication adjustment, downswing, another, feeling great so not too sure you need meds anymore, self diagnosis of cured and no meds at all, leading us to phase 1 catastrophe and restarting the dance to find the perfect doses, timing and schedule of the perfect medications. Problem is, none of them are perfect, particularly, none of them are perfect all of the time.
For the sake of openness, I am presently on Lamictal 200mg/day in the morning, Seroquel xr 50 mg/2x/day and 75 to 100 mg regular release at night, Abilify 10 mg, Clonazepam .5 mg/2x/day and Cipralex 10 mg 1x/day. My problem? The seroquel is making me fat and tired, and I suspect that the Abilify is making me restless, though I am still not sure about that. If you can imagine feeling exhausted and extremely restless at the same time. A horrible feeling! So off again to the psych doc again next week to discuss another change. I feel I am getting very close to a good regimen, although that is not that reassuring because with this disease they seem to have to be constantly adjusted. That is not the only thing that makes the whole thing not so great. These drugs have crazy side effects attached to them.
The most ridiculously obvious was with the seroquel. It both makes me crave sweets which I never have, and messes with my metabolism making it almost impossible to lose the weight that I am packing on because of the sugary cravings and the slow metabolism. One medication I was on completely thrashed my thyroid, I now have to take thyroid hormone. I have to say, from lethargy, extreme tiredness, weight gain, hair loss, and those are the non-life threatening ones, it is no picnic to manage this disease. This next doctor visit I will request a drug called topamax. It is the only mood stabilizer that I have heard actually helps with weight loss. The trade off? It makes you dumb, apparently, so I've heard.
Interestingly, most of the mood stabilizers that are used to treat bipolar disorder are actually anticonvulsants used for epilepsy, or antipsychotics, very powerful medications. I am hoping that with an improvement in my fitness that I will be able to keep my medications to a minimum through taking impeccable care of my body, mind and spirit.

Boys' and Girls' soccer experience begins in South River Soccer's developmental program where players ages 3 –7 learn the basics of soccer, become part of a team, and enjoy playing the game of soccer. Graduating from the developmental program, a South River Soccer player will participate in the Anne Arundel Youth Soccer Association (AAYSA) county league for players age 8 – 18, were they participate in competitive soccer as South River Soccer teams routinely compete for numerous Division Championships each season. As players grow and learn, the more skilled players will continue with South River Soccer and enter their travel program and participate in Elite Development Program (EDP) soccer, playing highly competitive soccer against teams from Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware and participate in the Maryland State Cup or President's Cup.

South River Soccer has been the foundation for countless number of players who have reached the pinnacle of youth soccer including Maryland State Olympic Development Program (ODP), Maryland President's Cup Champions, Maryland State High School Champions, Anne Arundel County High School County Champions, and Anne Arundel County All-County High School Team.
Spring 2019 Letter From The Commissioner
Good Morning SRYA Soccer Families,
I am hoping everyone is enjoying the holiday season and getting to spend time with family and friends. The New Year is fast approaching and with a new year comes a new soccer season! Registration for clinic and county soccer will open up on January 1, 2019 and the early bird discount will be good through the end of the month. Regular registration starts on February 1, 2019 and runs the month of February. Late fees are assessed beginning March 1.
There are some changes that have been made to start the spring Season, they are listed below
New Clinic Coordinator- I would like to welcome Jessica Awad to SRYA soccer family. Jessica will be taking over for Jimmy Platt who most of you know is now the President for SRYA. I would like to thank Jimmy for all of his time and efforts for clinic soccer and helping transition his Clinic Coordinators duties to Jessica. You can reach Jessica via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Lowering of Tots Fees- This season we are lowering our tots fees to $60 to help families introduce soccer to the young children. However, with the lowering of Clinic fees, Clinic registrations will not receive the early bird discount.
Sibling Discount- Starting this season we are offering a $5 discount for families who have multiple children playing soccer. A $5 discount per child will be added at the time of checkout. All children have to be registered in soccer and registered at the same time for the discount to be applied.
New County Jerseys- Due to the inability to continue to order white jerseys we currently have, we are switching to new jerseys this Spring. All players playing in the U8 through U13 age groups MUST purchase a new Jersey starting this Spring. Players in the U14/15 and U18 age groups are permitted to keep the current white ones. We are keeping the same shorts and socks currently in use. The only thing that is changing is the jersey.
Coaching Background Checks- A new SRYA rule as of January 1, 2019, is that all coaches and assistant coaches must have yearly background checks. This is a new mandate SRYA Board of Directors put in place across all SRYA sports, effective January 1, 2019. Soccer is requesting all coaches and assistant coaches perform their background checks each January. You can submit your background application online at https://www.aacounty.org/services-and-programs/volunteer-background-check. SRYA soccer will absorb the cost of the annual background check by providing coaches and assistant coaches with a discount code they will use when registering which will deduct the $7 cost from their SRYA registration. The code will be distributed in January. Coaches and Assistant Coaches who do not have a current 1 year background check will be removed from coaching until such time their background check is current. This is being done to protect the children and it is a simple process and SRYA Soccer absorbs the cost.
Coaching Certificates- The goal of SRYA Soccer is to have every coach certified in the level of soccer they are coaching (4v4, 7v7, 9v9, 11v11). The online courses are available at US Soccer - https://www.ussoccer.com/coaching-education/licenses/grassroots. A coach will receive one (1) free soccer registration each season they coach provided their certification email@example.com) prior to registering their child in soccer for the season. The discount applies to Head Coaches only.
I am looking forward to seeing all of you again for the Spring 2019 season!
Happy New Year!
David B. McClanahan

Kids always "make" stuff, what's different from a generation to another is what they use to give shape to their imagination, from clay to Lego bricks. 3D printing will eventually be kids' new making technology, of course, but today an average 3D printer can't be used by kids: it's not safe (too moving and hot parts) neither fun (who would leave his/her kid alone with Blender?). Enter Printeer, a new project funded on Kickstarter which aims precisely at building a kid-friendly 3D printer to be used at home but also - and most of all - in schools, classrooms, museums, libraries and all the other places where kids can play and learn.
For Mission Street Manufacturing (the guys behind Printeer) making a 3D printer kid-friendly means many things. First of all Printeer is safe to use: moving and hot parts can't be touched because printer's components (motors, belts, printing head and so on) are enclosed in a case, only the printing plate can be accessed to remove printed objects. The case is clear, so kids can't touch anything but can see all that's happening in the printing process. Safety means also using only PLA filaments instead of ABS.
Kids usually don't want to learn how to use a CAD software before playing with a new toy, so Printeer is controlled by a simple iPad app. Printeer team say that Kids are more confortable with a tablet than a computer and Printeer software can be "learned in about 30 seconds". As it seems, using Printeer is just a matter of designing something new and press a "print" button somewhere.
From a technical standpoint, Printeer is a desktop printer (40 x 23 x 30 cm) with a printing volume of 15 x 10 x 12,5 cm. Small, but it should be more than enough to let kids play and learn with 3D printing. The printer is managed wirelessly and uses only PLA in a 1,75mm filament. It's built with "a variety of open-source software and hardware", but there are no details on what's exactly used.
The project is fully backed on Kickstarter: they got more than twice their goal (50.000 dollars) with two weeks still to go. Pre-production samples should be delivered next month, first production batches are planned for October 2014 and February 2015. The first batch will be assembled in a garage, very startup-style, while the second one in a real factory.
More info on the Kickstarter page.

Verse 7:[1] And the men of Israel said unto the (Josh. 11:19) Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell among us; and (Ex. 23:32; Deut. 7:2; 20:16; Judg. 2:2) how shall we make a league with you?
[And they said (thus the Septuagint, Jonathan, Arabic, similarly the Syriac), וַיֹּאמְרוּ] [All the ancients appear to have followed the letter of the text, but not the pointing on this word. Others: and he said.[2]]
[אֶל־הַחִוִּי] To the Hivites, that is, to the Gibeonites, who were Hivites (Vatablus, Junius). In חִוִּי is the signification of a serpent; for a serpent is called חויא. Therefore, he calls them serpentine, because they deceived Israel, as formerly the serpent deceived Eve. This is noted in Dras (Drusius).
The Hivites, that is, the Gibeonites, who were Hivites, Joshua 11:19.
[Peradventure in the land, etc., Hebrew, בְּקִרְבִּי] In my interior (Montanus), among us (Jonathan, similarly the Arabic), near us (Syriac), in the midst, or the bosom, of me (Junius and Tremellius, Piscator), that is, of my land, given to me, namely, by God. A Metonymy of adjunct, of which sort is found in Terence,[3] eamus ad me, let us go to me,[4] that is, my home (Piscator). They were rightly thinking it to be a sin for them to enter into a covenant with these, because it was forbidden, Exodus 23; 34; Deuteronomy 7:2 (Masius, Lapide, Bonfrerius). This was prohibited because of the danger to the Jews, lest they also, by the example of the nations among which they were about to dwell, should desert God (Malvenda). But concerning foreigners there was another reason, since with the Israelites no bond and familiarity of life was going to come between, even if they were covenanted (Masius).
Among us, that is, in this land, and so are of that people with whom we are forbidden to make any league or covenant, Exodus 23:32, 33; Deuteronomy 7:2; 20:15, 16.
Verse 8:[5] And they said unto Joshua, (Deut. 20:11; 2 Kings 10:5) We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?
[But they to Joshua, etc.] What they said to the Israelites has been related: now their conference with the Commander-in-Chief is set forth (Masius).
[We are thy servants] We desire to serve thee (Vatablus). That is to say, we give ourselves to you in service, so that ye might decide concerning us according to your will (Masius). Thus they speak from a certain officious humility of soul, but they do not intend to offer servitude and subjection (Bonfrerius, Masius on verse 27).
We are thy servants; we desire a league with you upon your own terms; we are ready to accept of any conditions. Who are ye? and from whence come ye? for this free and general concession of theirs gave Joshua just cause to suspect that they were of the cursed Canaanites.
[1] Hebrew: וַיֹּ֥אמְרוּ אִֽישׁ־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל אֶל־הַחִוִּ֑י אוּלַ֗י בְּקִרְבִּי֙ אַתָּ֣ה יוֹשֵׁ֔ב וְאֵ֖יךְ אֶֽכְרוֹת־לְךָ֥ בְרִֽית׃
[2] Thus the Qere: וַיֹּאמֶר.
[3] Publius Terentius Afer (died 159 BC) was a Roman playwright.
[4] Eunuchus 3:5:612.
[5] Hebrew: וַיֹּאמְר֥וּ אֶל־יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ אֲנָ֑חְנוּ וַיֹּ֙אמֶר אֲלֵהֶ֧ם יְהוֹשֻׁ֛עַ מִ֥י אַתֶּ֖ם וּמֵאַ֥יִן תָּבֹֽאוּ׃

New year's resolutions — love 'em or hate 'em, they're the go-to planning tool for many people.
Eileen Chadnick of Big Cheese Coaching, on the other hand, asks questions. We're very much on a wavelength, it seems, when it comes to writing things down. I find it focuses my thoughts, makes them real in a way that merely thinking them does not.
Eileen's 12 new year's questions were published this year in the Globe and Mail and Huffington Post, and also on her website. It's worth it to take some time to go through them, and think about your answers.

Alvar Aalto Collection serving platter 355 x 436 mm
Alvar Aalto
Inspired by the natural beauty of his native Finland, design legend Alvar Aalto's asymmetrical wave ("aalto" in Finnish) shape made quite a splash when it won the 1937 Paris World Fair. Since then, it's become a timeless symbol of Scandinavian home design. Designed in the spirit of Aalto, the oak wood serving platter is a modern addition to the Alvar Aalto collection that seamlessly combines sculpture and form. Generously sized to serve multiple dishes or an entree. The versatile Iittala platter can also be used as a trivet, cutting board or as a stunning display piece. Perfect gift idea. Handwash only.

Fleck E.S.C. returns, this time on German "Mechatronica" imprint, who launches with this fascinating release, its digital-only selection of titles that promises to continue the trend of high-quality tunes that has made this young imprint one to look for in just a year's time.
Here's an electro alliance that will make some noise! For its 22th release, London based Cultivated Electronics ran by Sync 24, welcomes "The Resonance Committee"; the association of UK talents Keith "Radioactive Man" Tenniswood, Phil "Bass Junkie" Klein, Simon "The Dexorcist" Brown and Matt Whitehead.
As someone who grew up in the Florida Electronic music scene, where Rabbit In The Moon where perhaps the most influential band around, it is very exciting news to announce a release that should make any hardcore fans of RITM jump for joy! "Seven Loves Electro" is not just a flight of fancy for the group, but rather a coming back full circle for their musical legacy, where much of it began in part, grounded in the aesthetics of what people commonly call "Electro".
After a discrete yet successful first release from the likes of James Zeiter aka Analog 1, Furthur Electronix; the imprint created by Anil Lal and Graphic Designer/Artist "Majkel", proudly presents its second outing.
Carlos Native, the elegant Spanish composer of majestic Sci-Fi dance music returns with his 2nd album to date: "Exploration". 10 brand new songs full of rich synthwork, and spellbinding programming that will remind you of many of your favorite soundtracks to the great futuristic movies of yesteryear. An intelligent sound from a brilliant musical mind!
No need to be a NASA employee to intercept radio transmissions from Mars! As an Electro freak, your hearing sensors might have probably perceived the highly anticipated vibes from French label Radio Mars' third and long awaited output.
Present "Ovidrians Eyes EP" offers a successful follow up to a couple of 12" written by Kaleidophone and Franck Sarrio; respectively in 2006 and 2008.
The name Sbles3plex remains associated to three essential outings published between 2001 and 2003, on Holland's infamous Techno Acid imprint Djax Up Beats.
Red alert! The London don returns on his very own No Survivors! Recordings imprint with three uncompromising Acid Electro cuts of his trademark in the direct prolongation of the "Interception" album released last year. With this new sonic assault, expect no prisoners from Mike Ash (Borg Recordings, Bass Agenda Recordings).
Professor X needs to hold on tight! This month, The Bass Academy welcomes into its walls two new teachers. Succeeding to Gods Of Technology Feat. Egyptian Lover, Jamie Jupitor, Dark Vektor, and The Blotnik Brothers, U.K. Wizard The Dexorcist (Control Tower, Battle Trax) and U.S. heavyweight Exzakt (Monotone USA, Shipwrec) take control of the French label to provide their programs for high school students interested in learning about Bass Music in its purest form.
Spanish netlabel Urban Connections returns with yet another eclectic collection of Electro tunes you simply cannot miss out on. This new one, like all the previous, is free, and carefully handpicked by a well seasoned composer and producer who goes by the name of Amper Clap. The talent you will find in all these compilations is more than apparent, and the range of styles and mix of veteran and up and coming artists makes them even more interesting.

Amazing dental staff
My 6 year old son actually looks forward to his dentist visits now because of Dr. Hollywood and her extraordinary staff. He was scared when he was younger and a trip to the dentist was a nightmare and we switched to Dr. Hollywood a few years ago and it's the best decision I've made. He loves getting the token for prizes at the end of the visit. Very highly recommended!!! Carina D'Alessio

Dr Hollywood is 🥇
I can't stop raving about this place, the office, the staff, the environment, and mostly Dr.Hollywood herself are all superb!!! I can't even describe how much of a comfortable environment your child will be in. This will change your outlook on you child's dentist appt. The office staff is friendly and accommodating. All of the ladies have the same friendly personality as the Doctor. Dr Hollywood herself is what makes the proactive shine and outshine other dentist in the area. Her personality, her caring nature, her patience and of course her friendly smile, will have you looking forward to your next visit. I would NOT recommend anyone else but her. She is worth the travel if you don't live in town, trust me your kids will love her (and so will you)

Professional, Friendly and Comforting
I had brought my son to a different dentist that we just didn't feel comfortable with so we asked some more people for recommendations. Someone recommended Dr. Hollywood and WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!! From the moment we walked in the door everyone was very friendly. They all truly mad even my son (and us) feel comfortable. Dr. Hollywood explained everything very thoroughly and was very accommodating to what I felt comfortable with for treatments with my son. I truly recommend Dr. Hollywood and her staff to anyone and everyone. No complaints here!!! ☺

Extended Shelf Life for: Eggplant, Lemon, and Nut mix
Plentiful eggplants from one diving trip led me to seek out some new and potentially exciting recipes which feature the purple, spongy vegetable that is always delicious fried and extremely delicious when mixed with the ingredients for this pasta dish which can be found in Rachel Ray's Big Orange Cookbook. I rarely love meals to the point of closing my eyes and allowing an 'mmm' to escape my lips followed by proclamations that 'this is delicious' and 'can you believe how amazing this is?' and 'wow, I really like this.' I tend to take a more critical and humble approach the food that comes from my kitchen, but not on the night of this delicious pasta dish.
1 lb. Whole Wheat Penne
1/4 cup Olive Oil
4 Garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1 (15 oz) can Chickpeas
1 med. Eggplant, peeled and chopped
2 tsps. Ground Cumin
2 tsps. Ground Coriander
Black Pepper
1 cup Broth
1/4 cup Tahini paste
Juice of 1 Lemon
1/2 cup fresh Parsley
1/4 cup pine nuts or soy nuts mixed with sunflower seeds
Bring large pot of water to boil and prepare the pasta according to package directions. Be prepared to save 1 ladle-full of pasta water before draining pasta.
While boiling water, heat the olive oil in a deep skillet or wok. Add garlic and red papper, cook for 1-2 minutes, then add the chickpeas and eggplant and stir to cover with the garlicky oil. Season this mix with cumin, coriander, salt and pepper, then stir in stock (or the liquid from the chickpeas). Cover and cook for 10 minutes until the eggpland is tender. Stir in the tahini paste and lemon juice and transfer to blender or food processor. Process the chickpea and eggplant mixture until almost smooth then transfer back into skillet.
Drain pasta, reserve one ladle of liquid. Add pasta water to chickpea sauce, then add the pasta and toss with the sauce. Top with parsley and pine nuts and ENJOY!

Two girls you helped in Lent 2016 want to thank you
7 September 2017
You gave an amazing £4.3m during Lent in 2016. This helped girls like Proscovia and Guti to finish their education. The UK Government matched the first £3.5m – pound for pound – so your kindness and generosity unlocked over £7m to turn around the lives of the world's poorest people.
Read why match funding matters
Guti and Proscovia live in Karamoja, a very dry part of Uganda. You heard their stories during Lent two years ago and gave what you could to help more girls get access to water near their homes so they don't spend hours every day fetching it.
Our Caritas partner in Uganda caught up with Proscovia recently. She is still studying, but has changed school. "We don't face water shortages here now – we have water here at home and at school."
Your doubled donations brought water into homes
Guti has now gone to high school and is in year two. "We have got running water in school unlike back home when we used hand pumps. However, we sometimes struggle for water when the rains are delayed, like now."
The headteacher of Guti's former school has good news to report in his school: "In 2014, we had 90 girls and 125 boys enrol. This year has seen 187 girls sign up for school and 301 boys. This is down to the work of Caritas and our senior female teacher."
You should be proud of what you have achieved with the people of Uganda. On behalf of the communities you gave to so generously during Lent 2016, thank you!

Pretty Addictions fan page on Facebook and my prize was a sample size collection of my choice. I chose the Shipwrecked in Paradise collection. My prize arrived super fast and was packaged very well. I have ordered and received prizes from Pretty Addictions numerous times and every time has been perfect and shipped super fast.
Look at how cute the new labels are!
Pretty Addictions pigments and this collection is in the same category of quality. They apply smoothly, blend easily and are pretty opaque without a base.

The specialist recruitment agency have employed new branding and a new microsite to strengthen their market position.
Harwood Recruitment, the market leading financial sales consultancy has gone live with their refresh brand identity with the launch of their website.
The brief to create a new identity that also works as an icon evolved the candidate search theme. The favoured typography has been set and redrawn to allow for the 'O' and the magnifying glass icon to work.
The logotype is at home on screen, on stationery and signage – while on social media the magnifying glass device is used in isolation.
A fully responsive one page microsite quickly gave Harwood Recruitment the credibility they needed. Utilising the Bootstrap framework and employing the Font Awesome CSS toolkit allowed for quick, cross platform development and deployment.

Two years ago, Emily's journey began. She learned the ancient magic of her Celtic ancestors, and became a modern Celtic Priestess. The golden torc, forged by faerie hands, is still wound around her arm, fused to her soul. She was entrusted with powerful magic – secret knowledge.
But even a Priestess can feel desire – temptation – and the quest for love. Will passion entice Emily to use her sacred magic in a forbidden way? Can new love take root in a world of nightmares? And will her friendships survive Emily's Trial?
The Journey Continues . . .
Excerpt of Emily's Trial:
The Apocalypse didn't start with four horsemen, harbingers of the horror to come. It didn't start with a plague, or pestilence, or even zombies rising from the dead.
It came slowly, and without warning. It crept up on people in the shadows, no more than a vague darkness that spread like an unseen cancer.
And it wasn't set into action by a divine hand. A teenage girl was the catalyst for the End Times.
I should know. I'm the one that started it.
I didn't plan to, of course. I had no desire to start the End Times, and I'm not evil.
Madame Wong taught me to tell the truth, and so here it is. I'm the one responsible for the Apocalypse. And this is the story of how I unwittingly unlocked the door to the darkness; of how a Priestess of the Order of Brighid, entrusted with powerful magic that was supposed to be used for the benefit of all humankind, unleashed a force that would destroy it instead.
And it all began with desire.

This resplendent Bentley Continental GT by Mansory is a true Geneva gem
Of all Mansory works exhibited at the 89th Geneva International Motor Show in Switzerland, this custom Bentley Continental GT will surely be remembered as one of the coolest. The tuner did not give us any technical specs, but do those even matter anymore when you get as much eye candy as this? Perhaps; perhaps not.
The body of the grand tourer is high-gloss white with lacquered carbon accents throughout. Carbon parts include the front spoiler, the side air intakes, the rear spoiler, the hood cover, the side skirts, the mirror caps, the rear diffuser and the rear wing.
The car rides on huge 22-inch alloy wheels concealing light-blue brake calipers behind the spokes.
The interior space is dominated by turquoise genuine leather upholstery and sports numerous carbon bits in various places. We think there is also a new sports steering wheel along with Mansory-branded floor mats and similar minor additions, but the inside portion of the car remains hidden from view by those blacked-out windows. Too bad…

Incredible Deals On Black Friday When You Don't Wanna Shop
So, not everyone likes to shop on Black Friday. Personally, I find that day is better served doing things that don't involve shopping. Lots of businesses know you are shopping and have incredible deals to lure you away from the stores. Here are a few I have found:
Sandusky Waterparks-My family and I go every year on Black Friday because it is the one time of the year (besides taking the kids outta school during the week), that we can afford it. They also threw in a $100 arcade gift card, as well. Look into the 2 we have and check out the deals.
Hotels and Motels-The closer we get to Thanksgiving and Christmas, the more expensive accomodations become. But, stay the day after on each holiday, and the cost goes dramatically down,.
Airline tickets-Sure, the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and the Sunday afterwards have insane prices, but flying on Thanksgiving can be cheaper as well as less crowded!

No Kidding, this is a picture of the very first Hidden Wire Mantel. All the designs you see available today are based on this original.
The idea took off when visitors would ask "Where are the wires?" When they realized the wires to the TV and other devices were running through the mantel, they asked if they could buy one. After being asked a dozen or so times, Hidden Wire Mantels was created and we were off to find local craftsman to build them.
Hidden Wire Mantels are manufactured in this wonderful central Ohio town. We've been overjoyed to work with some of the most experienced mantel makers in the country and it shows in every mantel that we ship. We wanted to keep manufacturing local to ensure that every Hidden Wire Mantel is of the highest quality and to help create jobs in our community.
Every Hidden Wire Mantel is individually assembled to your specifications from woods produced in local mill works. Good things take time to make. It will take 2-3 weeks to build and ship your mantel. If we are finishing your mantel an additional week is required.

Ashes in Outer Space
Have you thought about how you want to be memorialized? Do you want to be buried in a cemetery? Cremated and kept in an urn on your children's mantle? Have you considered a space burial? There are many options when it comes to what to do with your remains. Some are traditional, while some are…well, unique. Some want to be turned into a statue, or living urn (see our previous post). Some want to be buried at sea. You may not have given it much thought (or maybe you have), but a space burial is an option for you. A space burial is the launching of cremated remains into outer space. The remains may orbit around the Earth, travel to planetary bodies (such as the moon), or go into deep space (definition from Wikipedia). To those concerned about pollution in outer space, the ashes are not scattered in space. The ashes are sealed inside a spacecraft until it comes back into the atmosphere and burns up, reaches its targeted endpoint (like the moon), or goes into deep space. For those who may not want their final destination to be space, some private companies take a portion of remains into suborbital flights and return them safely back to Earth.
Celestis, Inc. provides all of these options to you. Cremated remains can go into a space flight with return to Earth, launched into Earth's orbit, land on the moon or into its orbit, or sent into deep space. They also offer the family the opportunity to watch the launch live after a memorial service, including a keepsake video. These services start at $1,295 and exceed $12,500. Elysium Space sends remains into Earth's orbit for $1,990, or to the surface of the moon for $9,950. The prices seem small for being able to look up into the sky and see your loved one in a shooting star, or enjoying the view of Earth from the moon.
The first person to be buried in space was Gene Roddenberry, who is best known for creating the original Star Trek television series. A portion of Roddenberry's cremated remains went into space, and returned back to Earth, on NASA's space shuttle Columbia in 1992. Since then, hundreds of people have been buried in space in some way. The ashes of Pluto discoverer Clyde Tombaugh will go the distance; a portion of his ashes are on their way to Pluto and beyond. Tombaugh discovered Pluto in 1930, and his ashes are inside the New Horizons spacecraft, which is on an escape trajectory from the solar system. Tombaugh's ashes will be the first to reach interstellar space.
The next question we must consider is: how will we handle space burial if humans start to live in space? There is a lot of talk about colonizing the moon and Mars, and we have to think about how we will deal with the vast amount of space explorers who want to live the rest of their lives out in space. Will space burial become the norm?

ServiceOntario is part of a Government of Ontario initiative created out of a desire to give Ontarians an easy, cost-effective way to access government services. ServiceOntario is responsible for delivery of services to citizens through the internet, telephone and automated kiosks placed around the province.
ServiceOntario continues to grow and increase its capacity to integrate and deliver services to Ontarians. In 2011, ServiceOntario became the retail face in service delivery on behalf of individuals and businesses in Ontario. Any and all routine transactions were completed through ServiceOntario centres, website, call centres or kiosk locations. In 2012, illegal card skimming devices were installed on some kiosks in the Greater Toronto Area, forcing the temporary shutdown of all kiosks province-wide.[1] In 2012, the shutdown was made permanent.[2]
The Minister of Government Services is responsible for ServiceOntario.
ServiceOntario brand[edit]
Whether communication is face-to-face, online, by telephone or through written or visual materials (signage, displays, publications) the organization has made efforts to present a consistent, unified visual with a marketing strategy centering on a brand image which is attained by distinctive logo and the slogan "making it easier".
The following are some of the services delivered by ServiceOntario on behalf of the government:
- Health card registration
- Birth, marriage and death certificates
- Driver and vehicle licensing
- Business registration
- Fishing and hunting licences
- Address change
- Newborn registration
- Ontario government publications
