A woman I know turned down a career-making assignment in South Africa. It's not that she didn't want to relocate her family. It's that she was afraid to get on a plane. Fear of heights, fear of spiders or snakes, fear of public speaking, open spaces, balloons even -- phobias are limiting, debilitating conditions that can leave ordinarily high-functioning individuals paralyzed. But what if it didn't have to be that way?
Author and cognitive hypnotherapist Dawn Walton has this to say:
A phobia is never rational. Did you know the No. 1 phobia in the U.K. is spiders? And yet there are no venomous/biting spiders in the U.K. If you are scared of spiders, when a spider comes into the room you stop being yourself. You enter a fight, flight or freeze state (although in fairness I don't know anyone who goes into a fight state for a spider!). Anyone who is not scared of spiders can't understand why you don't just grab a glass and get it out of the room, or even stand on it. The person in a protective state of fear can't think like that. In fact, they can't think at all because the subconscious has taken over. When the spider is gone you get your thinking head back and often beat yourself up 'Why didn't I just catch it in a glass?' 'Why didn't I just stand on it?' 'I am so stupid reacting like that.' This is true of any phobia. You stop being able to think because your subconscious takes over. My job is to stop your subconscious taking over and to allow you to continue to think. You could say I de-hypnotise you because of this. When you are in a state of fear you are in a trance state. I stop you going into that state.
I interviewed Walton about her new book, The Caveman Rules of Survival, and how you can reprogram your brain to get rid of phobias.
Question: Why do you think people develop phobias in the first place?
Answer: It's pretty simple really. Your subconscious is responsible for keeping you safe and well. This is not just about keeping your heart pumping, blood flowing and fighting off viruses, it's also about keeping you safe from threats external to you. The problem is your subconscious is primitive, emotional and stupid. It just reacts to a threat because it doesn't do thinking! A threat is something that will hurt you. In the caveman days the things that hurt you would usually kill you. If you were under attack from a sabre-toothed tiger and took time to work out if you'd remembered to bring your best spear or if you could outrun it on this terrain, then you'd be dead. So when faced with any threat your subconscious triggers an instant physical response; flood your body with adrenaline, increase your heart rate, shorten your breath and get you ready for fight, flight or freeze. Now, as you read that, it probably sounds familiar. All of us can recall having those feelings. You might call it nerves, anxiety or even a panic attack. And yet, there are no sabre-toothed tigers, or indeed any predators, so how come we can all relate to the fight, flight, freeze response? This is because your subconscious is now looking for things that will hurt you emotionally, and equating them to the physical hurt of a sabre-toothed tiger (did I mention it's stupid?).
How does it decide what will hurt you? Well, it learns that when you are a child. All through childhood your subconscious is watching out for lessons that it can put in a rule book. That rule book will then be used once you are an adult to keep you safe and well. If something happens and a rule is matched, it reacts and keeps you safe before you have time to think.
Question: What kinds of phobias have people brought to you?
Answer: Because your subconscious is not capable of rational thought, you can end up with a phobia of anything. All a phobia is, in my view, is a heightened sense of fear that limits your life in some way. I have had phobias of having blood pressure taken, balloons and things that go bang, the dark, flying, heights, puking, standing up and speaking and a few more. I treat them all the same. There is a miscalculation in the subconscious, formed during childhood, where a fight, flight, freeze response is triggered. This takes you into a trance state where you can no longer think straight. Clear out the miscalculation, the rule in the rulebook, and the trigger for the fear goes away, leaving the thinking part of your brain fully engaged.
Question: Can you tell me one story of someone whose phobia truly went away after working with you?
Answer: The one that will always stick in my mind is someone who had a balloon phobia. When they got in touch they described it as "debilitating." In fact it was so bad she couldn't consider having kids because kids have parties and parties have balloons. This particular client had received over six months of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help her get over her phobia (this is a common approach in the U.K. for phobias).
She came to me because it was limiting everything in her life. It had gone from balloons, to Christmas Crackers, to fireworks to hearing cars misfiring all the time. In my experience, it is quite common for phobias to start off with a very specific trigger that then expands to cover more and more similar triggers. It was so bad that if her partner was out without them and saw a balloon, they would freak out too!
So she came to me. Together we worked out the first event where their subconscious had made a connection. We cleared the rule out of the rule book. Towards the end of that 1 hour session I fetched a balloon out of my drawer and blew it up. I hadn't realised how scary that would be. In fact I didn't realise while I was doing it because she sat there calmly in front of me. Once I had blown it up I handed it to her. She sat for the next 10 minutes holding the balloon. The moment that burnt into my mind for ever is watching her walk out of my therapy room with the balloon in her hand, and get into the car where her partner was waiting for her.
I got an email from her the next day. She'd had gone home, blown up balloons, played volleyball with them, and had them in every room of the house. She'd gone to a party shop and spent over 30 minutes in there before finding it was a bit too much for her and leaving.
The email said, "But has it really worked?" I smiled because to me this was the biggest sign that her brain was changing. This is the problem with helping people past phobias that have limited their whole lives. How can one session possibly change all of that?
If there is no rule in the rulebook for the subconscious to follow, then there is no fight, flight, freeze reaction triggered. This is not about coping techniques. This is about keeping the freedom to think. This is about not being triggered in the first place.
Question: So, what do you tell people about their phobias that makes it possible for them to be rid of them?
Answer: Clearing a phobia is simple. Getting a client to believe we have cleared it is not. The fear of the fear is the biggest problem with a phobia. All they have ever known about themselves is that when X happens, they react. So the balloon lady knew that if she saw a balloon she would be terrified. She knew this with a certainty that came from years of evidence. Just because she spent an hour with me, doesn't mean she now has evidence that she will be okay. She needed time to gather evidence.
The simplest way to describe it is to think of the old problem of screen burn in. If you left the same thing on a computer monitor for too long it left an imprint. This is why screensavers where invented. Even if you turned the monitor off, the imprint would still be there. When you turn the monitor back on then the new image would hide the imprint and you would forget it was there.
Clearing a phobia is like this. We have cleared the problem, but all they know is the imprint of how things used to be. It is only through experiencing how things are now that they can learn that things have changed.
Question: What's it like for people after they have worked with you, and find that things have changed?
Answer: Weird! No one believes it's possible. People expect that they will have to work hard to make sure the change happens. This is what most therapeutic approaches require. Mine doesn't. All the hard work sits in being alert to the fact that something will have changed, and allowing yourself to notice it. People leave a session with me looking at me like I'm crazy. They want to believe it worked but there is no way something so simple is going to help them get past this thing that's been in their way their whole life. I don't work eyes closed. I don't put them in a trance state. I don't need to. The subconscious is in charge 90 percent of the time, so the minute we talk about the problem, the subconscious takes over.
Everyone is fully aware of what's going on at all times. So there is no way that can work right? Changes happen instantly but observing the net effect of those changes can take weeks and even months. There is a lot of re-programming that needs to go on in the head after a session. In the same way as screen burn in doesn't go away instantly. It takes time to fade. Then one day you realise that you have walked over a high bridge without even thinking about it, or you now book holidays that involve flying without even giving it a second thought. Because of the way the brain works you probably think you exaggerated your memory of how big the problem was in the first place. It probably wasn't that bad. That's the point. We are changing your brain, not teaching you to cope. You shouldn't remember how bad it was.
But I know. Because I saw you at the start and can see you know. I can see the differences from an objective point of view.

Whatta day, whatta day, whatta day, whatta mighty long day. Yes it was... channeling my inner Salt N Pepa
When you are passionate and protective, sometimes you can get exhausted just thinking.
Perspective is everything people. Making assumptions doesn't get anyone anywhere but in a world of misguided confusion. Me included🙋🏻♀
Life is better when people know where they stand. I like knowing where I stand with you... like where I really stand, not some made up bs you say when I'm standing in front of you. Trust me,I'll let you know where you stand, so return the favor.
When you get to know me (which will take about a nano second if you're standing within earshot because I never shut up), you'll find out that you want me on your side. I'm fiercely loyal, extremely competitive (with myself) and LOVE collaborating with others.
I live to share & teach anything I know that will help you be successful. I'm lickety split quick to call out an injustice, not in the least bit afraid of confrontation, fast to forgive, I don't forget a detail, and I have to work pretty hard at being a good listener.
I don't judge people unless they're just flat out stupid, and I hate tomatoes a lot. There's nothing that will make me madder than a passive aggressive comment, someone eating a banana in the same room as me or going back on your word. MAN I HATE THAT. Do what you say you're gonna do. Integrity is a hot commodity these days. More people need to try it for a change.
I hate getting ready. I hate shopping & I reeeeally dislike Mazie Hirono.
Just be authentic. Tell the truth. Be a good person. If you mess up, OWN IT. Say, "Yes, I did that & I am sorry." Then staaaahhhp doing it. BE sorry by SHOWING that you've changed.
Ignorance isn't bliss. You don't get to go through life saying I didn't know. That's not an excuse.
If you get defensive then you're probably lying, so calm down if you even want to have the chance of sounding believable, and for goodness sake can we all just agree that those giant obnoxious and expensive tires on Crown Victoria's with people driving that are leaned so far back that they are invisible when you pass are so DUMB? ...

Hultafors complements its range of traditional carpenter pencils with the next generation of markers. These products have been developed together with craftsmen from different fields, with the goal of making the craftsmen's work day even more efficient.
The launch includes three new pens and accessories.
"We have chosen to develop a number of products that simplify the working day of craftsmen when it comes to making marks. It has been important for us to think about efficiency, ergonomics and durability when developing the new products," says Per Eriksson, Product Manager at Hultafors.
Dry marker – in holster with built-in sharpener
Hultafors Dry Marker is a grip-friendly pencil in a holster with a built-in sharpener. The holster is smartly designed so that the pencil is easy to remove but also ensures that it stays in place if desired. In addition, both the pencil and the holster have been designed so that they do not roll away when placed on a surface.
The pencil sharpener is positioned in the holster for quick access. Through a hole in the bottom of the holster, dirt and moisture is led away from the pencil, thereby increasing its durability. All this along with the ergonomic and grip-friendly design, results in a reliable pencil that combines the best of two classics.
"The Dry Marker is a combination of the traditional carpenter pencil and the classic pencil. By combining the design features of both in this pencil, you always get a good grip, whether you want to draw clear lines or make precision markings," says Per.
Refill with pencil leads in two combinations
Refill is a smart container with 10 leads available in two combinations, either with 10 leads in durable graphite or 4 graphite leads and 6 pieces in chalk, 3 red and 3 yellow. The graphite leads are optimized for increased durability and resistance to moisture.
"By replacing the leads instead of the entire pencil, the user contributes to a more sustainable way of working," says Per.
Ink pens for marking in hard-to-reach places
The launch also includes two deep hole markers adapted for marking in hard-to-reach places and in narrow holes. The Ink Deep-Hole Markers are available in permanent red and black ink for use on most materials and surfaces.
The new markers will be launched on June 4, 2018.

Details, details.
In the last few Torah portions, we've had the Exodus, the splitting of the sea, the giving of the Ten Commandments, and dozens of laws to help the Israelites set up a just and functioning society. Moses has gone back up the mountain to get the hard copy (sorry, both for the pun and for my repetition of it over the years) of the Ten Commandments, leaving the people to…well, he'll find out later.
This week and next, we read very detailed instructions for building and furnishing the Tabernacle (mishkan) and for the priests' vestments. Then we have the (spoiler alert) Golden Calf disaster, followed by the actual fabrication of the Tabernacle and vestments. Three questions occupy the commentators about all this: Are these sections in chronological order? Why have a Tabernacle at all? Why the often mind-numbing detail?
Some commentators, like Rashi, feel that building the Tabernacle is a means of atoning for the Golden Calf, so that story is actually first chronologically. Further, according to Maimonides, the Golden Calf incident demonstrates the need for the people to have something tangible to connect them to an intangible God, so the Tabernacle would be a concession to this weakness. However, others, like Nachmanides, take the chronology as is and reject the notion of the Tabernacle-as-crutch. The amount of detail in the instructions, the space given to them, and the importance of the Tabernacle's eventual descendant, the Temple in Jerusalem, all support Nachmanides, in my opinion. The degree of detail has the practical benefit of preventing arguments when the people are actually carry out the instructions and enables the reader to experience the Tabernacle and vestments vicariously, even to the extent of replicating them today (you can buy kits online). I also like to think of the four portions of instructions and execution as peaceful, soothing buffers around the awful story of the Golden Calf.
So. Why a Tabernacle? I've written here before that the building of the Ttabernacle has parallels with Creation. Buber drew seven such parallels with Creation (Nehama Leibowitz, New Studies in Shemot, vol. 2, pp. 480-1). Thus, by building the Tabernacle, the Israelites that will, in a small way, imitate the Lord's own project of Creation.
I feel the key points in this portion are found right at the beginning, in verses 25:2 and 8:
"2. Tell the Israelite people to bring Me gifts; you shall accept gifts for Me from every person whose heart so moves him."
The gifts, though very specifically described (a mishkan registry?), are to be voluntary. The only compulsory donations are a half-shekel of silver for the sockets for the Tabernacle's planks and the annual half-shekel donation for communal offerings. We'll also read of the emotional involvement of the people during the actual building. The degree of detail evokes the excitement of people who are into building dream houses and interior design and has the practical benefit of preventing arguments when the people are actually carry out the instructions.
"8. And let them make Me a sanctuary that I may dwell among them."
Yes, the people have been told that the Lord is not constrained physically. But this verse resonates with warmth. It defines the Tabernacle as a special, sacred space where contact between the people and the Lord is especially loving and intimate. As Rabbi Edward Feinstein wrote this week about 25:8 ("When You Haven't Got a Prayer"), "We are to build a place for God to dwell in our world, in our lives. Not on high. But down here in the rhythms of daily experience God wishes to dwell."
Shabbat shalom,

The new church
A rich man goes to his minister and says, "I want you and your wife to take a three-month trip to the Holy Land at my expense. When you come back, I'll have a surprise for you."
The minister accepts the offer, and he and his wife set off to the Middle East.
Three months later they return home. They are met by the wealthy parishioner, who shows them a new church he has had built for them while they were gone.
"It's the finest building money can buy, reverend," the man says. "I spared no expense."
And he is right. It is a magnificent edifice, outside and in. But there is one striking difference. There is only one pew, and it is at the very back.
"A church with only one pew?" asks the minister.
"You just wait until Sunday," the rich man says.
When the time comes for the Sunday service, the early arrivals enter the church, file onto the one pew and sit down. When the pew is full, a switch clicks silently, a circuit closes, the gears mesh, a belt moves and, automatically, the rear pew begins to move forward.
When it reaches the front of the church, it comes to a stop. At the same time, another empty pew comes up from below at the back and more people sit down. And so it continues, pews filling and moving forward until finally the church is full from front to back.
"Wonderful!" says the minister. "Marvelous!"
The service begins, and the minister starts to preach his sermon. He launches into his text and, when 12 o'clock comes, he is still going strong, with no end in sight. Suddenly a bell rings, and a trap door in the floor behind the pulpit drops open.
"Wonderful!" says the congregation. "Marvelous!"

Charlie Blackmon in a Tiger Shirt and Your Memories
When I look at a child, I see the future. When I look at my wife, I see the woman with whom I'll be spending the rest of my life. And, increasingly, whenever I look at Charlie Blackmon, I see everyone I was friends with in college.
The image to the left — of Charlie Blackmon wearing a vest and wearing a tiger shirt and eating what appears to be some kind of delicious burrito — has provoked merely the latest in a series of small epiphanies regarding how the Rockies outfielder is actually probably just one of my roommates from college with whom I've lost touch.
To the photo, he appends this confident-sounding tweet:
what's better than a tiger? A Siberian tiger. What's better than a Siberian tiger? Four of them on my awesome shirt!
And what I believe is a student film made by Blackmon and this other guy with whom we roomed.

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. – New Mexico State kept its hold on the Western Athletic Conference lead with a 3-1 win over CSU Bakersfield Saturday afternoon at the Icardo Center.
NMSU ran its record to 15-5, 5-0 in the WAC with the 25-23, 25-13, 16-25, 25-18 victory over the 'Runners (5-12, 3-2) as the Aggies collected their sixth straight win.
"It's a tough place to play," said NMSU head coach Mike Jordan. "Bakersfield has a good team, they've been playing well and they're good offensively. They served it pretty tough. For us to go on the road, get a win and hit over .400 is a lot to be happy about."
The Aggies hit an outstanding .418 as a team, with five players notching 10 kills apiece. CSUB hit .260 for the match.
Once again All-America candidate Gwen Murphy led the way for NMSU. The Aggie senior from Elfrida, Ariz./Valley Union hit .478 in the match with 15 kills and five blocks. Senior Bradley Nash of Kayenta, Ariz./Monument Valley tallied 14 kills and hit .500 against the 'Runners with three blocks.
Senior Nathalie Castellanos of Vado, N.M./Gadsden, sophomore Jordan Abalos of Safford, Ariz., and sophomore Sasha-Lee Thomas of Pottsville, Pa, all posted 10 kills in the match. Castellanos added four blocks and Thomas three in helping pace the Aggies.
"When you've got balance that's a neat thing," stated Jordan. "I think our ability in the middle opened things up for us on the antennas (outside) a little bit."
"Gwen's obviously our best player, but we've got a lot of ability on the court, especially offensively. I'd like to get to a spot where Gwen's not the kill leader all the time and we're getting close to that balance."
Jordan also praised the performance of Nash. "Brad was great. She moved the ball well, she was hard to read and really did a good job of putting the ball away."
CSU Bakersfield was led by Edithza Urias, who led all hitters with 19 kills to go with a .500 hitting percentage and a block.
The Aggies and CSU Bakersfield battled in a close first set, with NMSU getting the last two points of the set to grab a 25-23 win.
The Aggies came back to dominate the second set 25-13, but then saw the 'Runners reverse the roles in the third set. CSUB never trailed in winning 25-16.
But the fourth set belonged to the Aggies, allowing only a 1-1 tie before taking charge. NMSU dominated the attack hitting .636 for the set on the way to a 25-18 win.
"We just passed the ball better again, made a few more digs and gave ourselves some transition opportunities. We're tough to stop, there's no question," said Jordan. "We had to hit well, we needed it. They hit for .260 in the match and we needed to hit well to win there. We hit the shots when we needed to, fortunately."
The Aggies are back in action next Thursday at the Pan American Center when they host a showdown for first place in the WAC against Utah Valley, The Wolverines swept Seattle U 3-0 on Saturday and enter the match with a 4-1 WAC record, one game behind the Aggies. First serve is set for 7 p.m.
"We've got to defend the home court and give ourselves a little bit of a cushion going into the second half. That's our goal," Jordan added.
NMSU then hosts Seattle U next Saturday to finish the first half of the WAC schedule.

It's like this: have you ever lived in the city and then you take a trip to the country and you say ah listen to the country? How nice and quiet here we can really hear ourselves think. So relaxing so delightful we have needed this for a long time. But then about midnight you are going fucking nuts with the quiet of no sound, or nuts within the quiet of one isolated sound. The sound of one cricket, just one black cricket chirping underneath your window still.
He's chirping and he just won't shut up and you miss the sirens. You miss the light you miss the hiss of city curling up around you whispering good night.
Inside the city you are a night light illuminating your particulars. But oh no the country so dark you can count the stars each one demanding a full counting. Count each one and feel small under the dome of isolated light. Caught off guard and feeling in between something. In between the earth and sky with no city there to make it right.
No city to create an incandescent blanket to cradle you in a quasi darkness that you can mistake for night.
The city makes no demands for you to say oh look here is Orion's belt, here are the seven sisters here is my private wishing star. Old stars delivering their left-over used-up light.
In the country with the weeds and flowers you can be afraid of the dark but in the city under this irradiant sky you can know where you stand, say in Fairmount Park or on the Boulevard, better out on the stoop on Franklin Avenue, listening to the dark volume of a city night. You are just one star there then underneath an arranged landscape of violet blue. Safer that way there.
But visit the country and you will understand. After awhile you want to kill the cricket. You want to kill the cricket and hear the sirens that announce a cricket-sized emergency. You want the brightness of the investigation. You need the reflection on the yellow tape to tell you that you are safe not in the country but in the world where yellow means emergency not gardening.
And you think to get up and turn on the light but you can't see the outline of your legs in the twisted cotton wrappings of the country in late summer and without sight you cannot feel that muscle or that conduit to cortex that says move your legs, swing them out of the bed and let them inch like two blind men until they reach the floor. Let those feet scuttle like crabs along the carpet and let those arms extended reach out to touch the switch or find some black shadow against shadow that lurches toward light.
In the country your body in its new blind world lays still hearing the blast of a cricket, listening to your breathe in and out and in and out and you wait out the dark, plot your cricket murders and wonder if your heart is about to stop with the slow surrender of a wound down clock. And then that's it.

Keynsham Kindness Festival
"Connecting Keynsham through Kindness : Making Kind Keynsham the kind of place to be"
Community Project
"Connecting Keynsham through Kindness : Making Kind Keynsham the kind of place to be"
We aim to help people living and working in and around Keynsham and Saltford to connect with each other to help build and sustain a vibrant cohesive community where everyone feels they belong and matter.
In particular we are trying to spread kindness which we feel underpins so much that is important in our society and helps to combat the climate of fear and negativity so prevalent these days. What we do best is to connect people whether as individuals or organisations to help them become more effective in what they are doing that matters to them.
The dance element of the festival was inspired by Life Vest Inside's Dance for Kindness which takes place across the globe every year on 11th November. (See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1qrK3IOtgk&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR2HkK-htDMpM8rcJk47GWjHuDuLnUx9X9xxpwEnRrJQj2L_NzjoyCaQxwc) .
Unfortunately, we felt this wasn't appropriate for us here in Keynsham because of the Remembrance Sunday commemorations. However, we're delighted that local dance schools have contributed some great events during the 10 days of the Kindness Festival.
Keyford Dancing School will also be doing a dance show at Broadlands Academy Friday 9th November with a theme about the Armistice : The Dancing Year and the Remembrance.
There will also be a great chance to join in a T-jive around the town on Tuesday 6th November as part of the programme of events.

Safety in Indonesian Mining as Freeport Indonesia ramps up safety at Grasberg Operations
Safety is fundamental to Freeport McMoRan; its philosophy of safe production demonstrated by the integration of safety practices in all aspects of their operational activities.
The Freeport Indonesia Grasberg Minerals District has seen ongoing exploration and provides opportunities for long-term development.
As Freeport continues to refine its OH&S initiatives globally, its Grasberg site is placing a large emphasis on improving the underground mine refuge facilities; including a recent collaboration with MineARC Systems that saw the commissioning of a 200 person Permanent Refuge Bay in their DMLZ mine.
Working closely with MineARC Systems over the next few years, Freeport Indonesia (Grasberg) plans to upgrade all existing underground chambers to MineARC Series IV Refuge Systems, featuring the latest and best in safe-refuge technology. Similar upgrades have been arranged for all above ground training chambers, allowing on-site Safety Managers to conduct more comprehensive training sessions.
MineARC DGM digital gas monitors are already being implemented across the board, in order to provide better air testing capabilities during an emergency situation.
MineARC has and will continue to play a critical role through its partnership with Freeport Indonesia regarding Grasberg's ongoing safety initiative; providing operational training to personnel both onsite and at MineARC Headquarters in Perth, Western Australia, as well as conducting regular servicing and audits of all PTFI chambers.

Baptism is a Burial
and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,
in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9
This verse is very important for everyone, because it is warning us that we are in danger of having God's wrath upon us if we do not do something which it says we must do. It says we must "obey the gospel". The first several times I heard of this expression I was bewildered. This was a new expression for me. I needed to find out exactly what that meant, as I most assuredly did not desire to come under the wrath of the Almighty God. With a little bit of study of the scriptures, the meaning was made apparent and soon became quite obvious to me. I knew by my study that I had not done what was necessary to avoid God's wrath upon me, and so I determined in my mind that I needed to do something about becoming right with God, and that this could only happen when I was willing to submit to doing His will.
The first question that comes to mind when reading this passage is, "What is the gospel?" We must go to other passages to find the answer to that question:
It is the power unto salvation (it can save us):
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. Romans 1:16
Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, Romans 6:3-5
Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

Above is an esoteric Jewish symbol called the 231 Gates, described in a book called Sepher Yetzirah, dating back to 2nd century CE. The 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet are arranged equidistantly along the perimeter of a circle. Every possible two-letter combination finds expression through a connecting line and this generates the circular interference pattern that you see.
The 231 Gates closely resemble the bird's eye view of a torus (shown above). The torus is a self-enfolding recursive geometric pattern that Stan Tenen and the Meru Foundation have shown to be encoded into the underlying mathematics of the first lines of Genesis in the Old Testament.
The word "torus" is a homonym of Taurus, the astrological sign of the Bull. Perhaps the shape of the bull's horns have something to do with its etymology. Wheel of Fortune card shows Taurus in the bottom left corner of the four fixed signs of the Zodiac (the other three being Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio). Four English letters and four Hebrew letters are found on the wheel. When you start at the top and move clockwise you produce the word TAROT. Turning counter-clockwise, the same letters spell TORA, or torah, indicating the name of the Old Testament. If you begin at the bottom of the wheel and move clockwise to A, then return counter-clockwise to R, the word ROTATOR emerges.
The double rotation spelling ROTATOR is symbolic of the corresponding flow of energy that happens along the surface of a torus; as you can see in the animated image above, the torus both unfolds and enfolds perpetually.
I believe the Wheel of Fortune shown in the tarot card represents the circular face of a bisected torus, like the red line in the model shown above. Churning and rotating the wheel of fortune is akin to operating one segment of the full geometric form.
Energy moves through the body along a number of different paths. Our digestive and eliminative system is a top-down model; nutrients enter through the mouth and come out the other end. This gravity-assisted food tube contributes raw material to distributed metabolic processes that transform food into energy and give us the strength to survive. Our voice comes from the mouth as well; it propels energy forward into space. Dual-directional energy currents like eating/speaking, inhaling/exhaling, and contracting/expanding muscles can be mapped onto the unitive circulatory model of the torus.
There are 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet and 22 basic components to a cube. The three axis (x, y, and z), the Center, the Six Faces, and Twelve Edges. The spherical torus of the 231 gates can similarly be applied to cubes. Human body is located at the center of the cube.
A tesseract/hypercube represents the toroidal principle of self-swallowing upper-dimensional cyclicity built on right angle geometry rather than circular/hyperspherical momentum. Click here to see a live-action image of the tesseract.
Toroidal Circulation as the Most Sustainable Bio-Energetic Propulsion System
Thoughts dictate the trajectory of all dreaming processes. Games and poems and riddles warp through and around the toroidal mind flux field in recursive loops.
I was laying in bed paralyzed by a momentary yet complete obliteration of self-image and self-importance, remembering that the whole world is a play of light and shadow and my life is a kind of illusion.True self can be located within a microcosmic cube-sphere of tightly coiled light energy at the zero-point center of the torus. Perception sensation and judgment composed of and shaped by an endless flow of information through the mind brain bioenergetic bone flesh nervous system matrix.

Perception sensation and judgment composed of and shaped by an endless flow of information through the mind brain bioenergetic bone flesh nervous system matrix.
Torus and Thought Loops
Thought loops described as "positive" and "negative" belong to ascending and descending spiral vortex paths along the surface of the torus. A healthy mind is in touch with and can entertain all perspectives because the operator-soul is a lucid and fully conscious vortex center that sees, recognizes, and honors the complementary paths of mental energy orbiting around it as an extension of inherent and eternal geometric principles.
TLP: Thought Loop Propulsion – The speed at which mental processes are firing.
TLA: Thought Loop Acceleration – Achieved by exercising and stimulating the body
TLD: Thought Loop Deceleration – Achieved by relaxing the body and discharging stress
Meditation is the key to regulating toroidal thought loop propulsion dynamics.

Hi guys!
So, Saturday night saw the third semi-final of Melodifestivalen 2015 take place in Östersund, where Jon Henrik Fjällgren and Isa were given the golden tickets directly to the final and Andreas Weise and Kristin Amparo have to earn a coveted place in the final through the Andra Chansen round, which will be happening in two weeks' time. Here is my summary of the artists:
1. Ellen Benediktson with 'Insomnia' – Ellen took part in Melodifestivalen last year with the song 'Songbird' which came 7th in the final. For her song this year, it was very well staged, but I think it suffered from 'dancer overload', like Robin in 2013. To its merit, it did have a nice bassline and I would've loved to have listened to it again. Unfortunately, the Swedish public didn't agree with me and gave it 5th place.
2. Kalle Johansson with 'För din skull' – One of only two Swedish language entries tonight. Kalle himself came over as very likable on stage but in the end, there wasn't much that differentiated his song from the others, and his place in the running order contributed to his 6th place finish. Not the best Melodifestivalen début, but I'm sure we will be seeing more from him. Unfortunately, I'd have to agree with the Swedish public on this one.
3. Andreas Weise with 'Bring Out the Fire' – For me, this song started quite strongly, but it got a little monotonous towards the end. The melody itself is nice, but I still don't get the message of the song. The staging was quite effective but I feared it would get lost in the running order. I think it might win the 'Dolly Style Award' for a catchy song for all the wrong reasons! It earned a place in Andra Chansen, but I don't see it reaching the final myself.
4. Andreas Johnson with 'Living to Die' – The second Andreas of the night presented us with a song which was quite well staged at the start, but the echoing and the fusion of styles really didn't work for me. It came in 7th place overall, which is what I think it deserved. The song itself was quite well written, but it didn't make that connection with the Swedish public, as I had predicted.
5. Isa with 'Don't Stop' – At 16 years old, Isa was the youngest of the singers tonight. In my opinion, she didn't let her relative inexperience bring her down, I likened her to Ace Wilder. She deserved a place in the final, and that's what she got in the end. The start is similar to Taylor Swift's 'Shake it Off' and it came a close second for my 'Dolly Style Award' because it is incredibly catchy! The dance was well choreographed and Isa often let her hips do the talking too! I thought this would get the young people's votes and I'm pretty sure that's what it got. I also noticed her use of the wind machine!
6. Kristin Amparo with 'I See You' – This was the strongest ballad of the night, Kristin's voice was very powerful. The totally dark staging was perfect for a song like hers. Her sustaining of notes was brilliant and the lyrics carried a great deal of meaning. It might face an uphill battle in the Andra Chansen round with the current Swedish preference for schlager and Europop, but the song is great in its own rights. The change in style and adding of the beat nearer the end just added to the song's overall effect.
7. Jon Henrik Fjällgren with 'Jag är fri (Manne Liem Frije)' – Melodifestivalen's hint of Sami yoiking went down a storm. I thought this might be the Marmite entry of the evening, I loved it and my friend hated it. Sweden agreed with me! In my opinion, it was an excellent fusion of traditional Sami music and the rhythms we've come to expect from Melodifestivalen. It had a mystic feeling from the very start, and was a hot favourite with both the bookies and the SVT online poll, gaining over a third of the vote. It is now the favourite to win with the bookies, but I think Eric will have something to say about that!
So, overall, I mostly agree with the outcome of the show. 'Bring Out the Fire' qualifying was my biggest shock of the night, but it was yet another brilliant show, reinforcing the fact that Sweden has been, is and will be a force to be reckoned with when it comes to Vienna in May. So, with one semi final left, and the hotly-tipped Måns Zelmerlöw still to perform, who do you think might have a good chance of winning that ticket to Vienna? Right now, I'd say either Mariette or Eric. Although, I'd love to see Jon, but admittedly, it would be a break from tradition, but it is still possible.
I'll see you all next Saturday!

Scenic tours through the Welsh countryside
Enjoy a fantastic tour of North Wales from our base in charming Llandudno. Ride aboard historic steam railways and visit the impressive castles found along the coastline of this beautiful and mountainous region of Wales.
Our holiday begins as you meet your Tour Manager in Llandudno, where we stay at the Dunoon Hotel. This fabulous seaside resort, sometimes referred to as the 'Queen of the Welsh Resorts', is the ideal base from which to enjoy our explorations of Wales, thanks in part to its marvellous history in welcoming travellers and guests to its delightful sandy beaches.
Tonight we meet for a drinks reception ahead of our first dinner together in the hotel's award-winning restaurant.
Today we head along the coast to Caernarfon, joining the narrow-gauge Welsh Highland Railway* for a journey into the foothills of the Snowdon Mountain Range to Beddgelert. This excellent line was opened in what is considered to be the 'Golden Age of rail travel', the roaring 20s. Although it closed only 15 years later, a marvellous effort has brought the line back to life, and in 1980 it began running again.
On arrival in Beddgelert, we transfer to Portmeirion by coach for a short guided tour. This tiny tourist village was designed by architect Clough Williams-Ellis, in 1925, who wanted to create a town that wouldn't look out of place on the Italian Riviera: something that has been achieved to a marvellous effect. Construction of Portmeririon was finished 52 years later, and now enjoys numerous visitors, who come to enjoy the calming sea views, the lovely architecture, and abundant greenery.
After some time at leisure, perhaps perusing the quaint souvenir shops, we travel to Porthmadog to join the narrow-gauge Ffestiniog Railway* to Blaenau Ffestiniog.
The second heritage railway that we travel on today is owned by the same company as the Welsh Highland Railway, and it boasts the title of being the oldest railway company in the world. This particular line is short but sweet, and has a history dating back nearly 200 years.
There are a number of locomotives that operate on this line, some of them steam, but the oldest among them are over 150 years old, and has been impeccably maintained to guarantee a marvellous experience.
*Steam-hauled where possible
We begin our day with a guided tour of the impressive Caernarfon Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Marvel at the iconic polygonal towers of this famed attraction. As we wander through the sprawling ancient complex, it is easy to imagine what life must have been like for the soldiers that lived here - from the legions of Rome to the armies of Edward I.
After the tour of the castle, we then travel over the rather dramatic scenery of the Llanberis Pass to Llanberis, where we visit the National Slate Museum which outlines the history of quarrying and slate in Wales since the original quarry was opened in 1870. Later, we board the Snowdon Mountain Railway's diesel service, which climbs to the summit* of Snowdon at 3,494 feet (weather dependent).
Enjoy travelling up the rugged sides of Wales' highest mountain in the comfortable, and rather modern, carriages of this wonderful service. Mingled with the everunchanging scenery of Snowdonia National Park, it can be all to easy to lose yourself in the amazing and immersive experience of this fantastic mountain railway. Hopefully, if the weather is good, you are able to reach the summit† and marvel at the spectacular panorama that is laid out before you, as you enjoy a scene that was just this year voted 'the best view in Britain'.
This evening, we return to our hotel and enjoy a talk on the history of Llandudno ahead of dinner by special guests from the Llandudno Museum.
*April departures will not travel to the summit
Today is at leisure to explore Llandudno. The nostalgic Victorian pier is well worth a visit. Built in 1878, this charming attraction provides excellent views of the seafront promenade. It also has the lovely title of being the longest pier in Wales, taking you out into the sea and giving a delightful view of Llandudno behind you.
This morning we visit Conwy Castle, a wonderfully preserved 13th-century castle. A guided tour reveals its intriguing history, from its initial and somewhat humble beginnings as a Cistercian monastery and its part played in the War of the Roses, to its eventual ruin in the 17th century. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage site, a title which it shares with many of the castles built on the borders of King Edward that are scattered throughout Wales.
We also visit Plas Mawr, the best preserved Elizabethan townhouse in Britain. Constructed over the course of 9 years, what is perhaps most striking about this white-washed house is its lovely crow-stepped gables and the heraldry that stands out above the door. It has stood unchanged since the 16th century, and is therefore an incredible insight into how life was in the 1500s. We then continue to Bodnant Garden, which spans 80 acres and includes a beautiful wild garden, an explosion of colour and scents. This evening we enjoy a 'Taste of Wales' farewell dinner at the hotel with a harpist.
The tour concludes after breakfast this morning, and you are free to depart Llandudno at your leisure.
Please note: The itinerary order may differ dependent on departure. Please call for more details.
On many of our UK & Ireland tours, you may check in at the first hotel on your itinerary anytime after 14:00; your Tour Manager will be available between 16:00 and 18:00. You will receive a welcome drink at 18.00 just before dinner at 18.30.

A wonderful time with an excellent Tour Guide, good hotel and interesting trips.
Lovely hotel, lovely base town, interesting tours, beautiful scenery, friendly guide, enjoyable company.
Good holiday again from GRJ
Apart from the weather everything was almost perfect. Super hotel, good food, good company, very good journeys and visits. The tour guide was always available and did a very good job.
Great itinerary and accommodation. Excellent Tour Manager
An excellent holiday in all respects
Full marks for a well-organised tour. The Dunoon hotel had an exceptional chef and apart from the desserts, which were unchanged and unappetising until the last night, when the chef showed what he could do in the dessert department too. Having an optional cheese course was a real bonus.I would have awarded five stars, but our room and bathroom were very small. Other guests had much larger rooms and were very happy with them. Exceptional coach driver and interesting guides.
it did everything that brochure said but probably tried to cover too much. having a full free day could have been utilised better
Very good but bathroom was very small. Hardly room to turn round.
Everything was as specified.
This very popular tour offers such a variety of excursions from our comfortable family run hotel in carefully preserved Llandudno sea side resort. There are three heritage railway journeys, a horse drawn canal ride, Portmeirion Italian style village and Caernarfon Castle to explore. Llandudno has lots of things to do on a free day. The Great Orme tramway has to be a must for all our passengers. Tip: sit backwards going up for the best view of Llandudno Bay. The coach journeys involve lovely scenery.

In addition to Parisians, the French in general like to travel to destinations non-French have never heard of. Another particular feature in France is the number of large, high-quality open air vacation sites. We may call them camping, glamping, holiday villages, resorts, or whatever, but there are plenty of them in stunningly beautiful locations in France.

Choosing right type of patient reminder service
Dr. Maulik March 14th, 2010
In US, a single patient no-show will easily cost you more than $100USD in business revenu. So it is not surprising that many doctors are out looking for a patient reminder service to slash no-show.
Are you looking for a patient reminder services and you are not sure about your choices? Let us look out for all the availabilities, their pros and cons to learn which one is best suitable for you.
You have many systems that inform the patients about their forthcoming consultations or visits to the clinic. Phone reminder, Email reminder, Text Message reminder are few of the most popular ways to notify the patients about their due visits. Patient reminder service is very important for doctors to tackle no-show patients and prevent revenue loss.
Though Internet is quite a popular tool to reach people, unfortunately, not all patients (especially elderly and those who are not well versed with Internet) are reachable through emails. Undoubtedly, email reminder is quite reliable and generally delivered on time (provided, the sender is not directed toward spam or rejected list) but this is not possible for all patients.
Another patient reminder option is calling them directly. Manually calling by health care desk receptionist may have some punctuality issues but patient reminder service through software or specially designed system is comparatively reliable. Again, the drawback of this system is if patients do not pick up the call or they do not have mail box that receives and stores the message, patient reminder service through telephone goes in vain.
Cellular phone or mobile phone has become an integral part of our lives and hence, text message reminder service is quite a popular tool to notify patients. Text message service is not only reliable but it comes with great facility that patients can set their reminder delivery time (for instance, an hour before due appointment or visit to the center). The issue with this type of patient reminding service is patients with text message facilities on their handsets can only receive this. Also, unlike other patient reminding service, the text message is to be paid by the user –i.e. the patient.
All-in-all, every reminder service has its own pros and cons and that is why, it is always advisable for doctors to set the combination of all three for ensuring fruitful results. This is because; any patient would fit in any of those criteria and will receive the notification by any means.

Vein Disease
Varicose Veins: More Than Just a Cosmetic Issue
Varicose veins are a very common problem, generally appearing as twisting, bulging rope-like cords on the legs, anywhere from groin to ankle. While many people have heard of varicose veins, very few truly understand their underlying cause, and the potential they have for developing into a serious medical issue.
Facts about varicose veins
Varicose veins affect an estimated 40% of women and 25% of men. Factors leading to varicose veins include heredity, gender, pregnancy, age and other factors. Some factors may speed up the development of this disease and make the veins worse, including prolonged standing, obesity, hormone levels, and physical trauma.
What are the symptoms? Will they get worse?
In addition to the visual appearance, many patients may experience one or more of the following leg symptoms
- Pain (an aching or cramping feeling)
- Heaviness/Tiredness
- Burning or tingling sensations
- Swelling/Throbbing
- Tender areas around the veins
If you experience symptoms and delay treatment, your symptoms may progress onward to more serious complications including:
- Inflammation (phlebitis)
- Blood clots (e.g., DVT)
- Ankle sores or skin ulcers
- Bleeding
If you are experiencing any of the above, consult your physician, as treatment may be required.
How varicose veins occur
Arteries carry blood from your heart out to your extremities, delivering oxygen deep into the tissue. Veins then return the 'de-oxygenated' blood (now blue) back to your heart to be re-circulated.
To return this blood to the heart, your leg veins must work against gravity. Small, one-way valves in the veins open to allow blood to flow upward, towards the heart, and then close to prevent it from flowing backwards.
Varicose veins occur when the valves in superficial leg veins malfunction. When this occurs, the valve may be unable to close, allowing blood that should be moving towards the heart to flow backward (called venous reflux). Blood collects in your lower veins causing them to enlarge and become varicose.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 – All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (NKJV)
Isaiah 43:2 – When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you. (NKJV)
I once counted up the times that I have moved through my life — a total of 35. That meant moving everything — pets, books, dishes, furniture — sometimes to another country, city, province, or state — changing mailing addresses and saying goodbye to friends, neighbours, and gardens. Some of those moves took place when I was old enough to be only a hindrance. Never once did I want to leave where I was, but very quickly, I became a reluctant expert at packing, carrying, and unpacking, then re-establishing my daily routine in yet another location.
But in all the disruptions, my daily spiritual routine in the morning has equipped me, then and now, to be of maximum service to God and those around me. This means Scripture reading, prayer, and meditation when I get up — when I consciously turn over my life and will to God for the day — then listening for and responding to spiritual nudges that come along. These exercises continually equip me to live the only real life, the spiritual one with God, eternal not just in the heavens, but right here and now.
The equipping also comes through experiencing the sorrow, loss, and pain of this world. Since I've begun to see the blessings that are always present as I go through the waters and the fires, I have even ceased to struggle. "I've been there," I can say to another. I'm continually enabled to see this equipping for what it is — the only way to grow in the Spirit.
All the hard things that we are up against bring us into the sunlight of the Spirit, ours to share. For sure, we cannot keep our faith unless we give it away. If our climb is all uphill, that is often a good indication that we are on the right path. God has equipped us for climbing our mountains, and He goes with us every inch of the way.
Jeremiah 29:11b – This message is from the Lord. "I have good plans for you. I don't plan to hurt you. I plan to give you hope and a good future." (Easy-to-Read Version)
Prayer: Thank You for all the blessings that come to us as we take up our journey. We thank You even for our problems and troubles, dear heavenly Father, since they turn us to You. Keep us aware of Your presence in everything that we say and do. How grateful we are that You alone ensure that we are well prepared and fully equipped to meet every necessity, and You see us through the complicated and stressful days of this time in our world. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 – All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. (NKJV)
Thank you Rose. A good reminder. God bless!
Been there, done that. Thanks for the good word.
Thank you, Rose, for sharing this devotional with us. Blessings.
Amen Rose. I am in the middle of a move right now, very timely!
That is my morning routine too and I thank you for added inspiration.
Thanks, Rose. I also moved many times. I can identify with your story.
Thanks again Rose for a good devotional.
Thanks for all your devotionals, I enjoy reading them.
Another good one Rose.
God bless.
Thanks for another inspiring message today, Rose. My daily morning quiet times are what keep me going as well. There's no better way to start the day than with our amazing God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Blessings.
When I first began to read this devotional, I thought it was written by someone in the services as they move around a lot. That is quite impressive, but you have roots in Christianity which has grounded you very lovingly. Thank you for today's message.
Hi Rose,
Your devotional today is such a true testament of the faithfulness of God, through each and everything we face in life today. He's never failed us yet!!! Amen.
Dear Rose,
Thanks so much for the devotional this morning! We have such a wonderful God who knows our every need! He even gives us the desires of our hearts and daily LOADS us with benefits!
God bless you abundantly!
Dear Rose,
Appreciated your writing of this morning's devotional. How privileged we are for the love and care of our Lord and His plans for our daily life.
Blessings upon you today and the days ahead.
Hello again, Rose. Thank you for being today a willing messenger from God!
I can relate to every 'bad' thing you wrote about and this year has been the absolute worst. It exhausted my body and has left me with little to no mental resources. I find no spirit of gratitude.
The Bible says that God will not give me more than I can bear. I cannot believe that at present. Please pray for me.
Thank you.
Hi Rose. It is so good to read your words again. Thank you for your very insightful devotional. As always, you're right on the mark. God is definitely typing with you.
35 moves! Wow! I've only moved a half dozen and I cannot say I enjoyed the work that went into them, nor every place I had to go. I am happy where I am right now, and God only knows what the future holds. I am so thankful that He does, and I don't!
I hope you are well and enjoying Autumn.
God bless you Rose and thank you again.
Dear Rose,
Thank you for your words of encouragement and wisdom, born of experience. I do thank the Lord for you and your ministry!
Dear Rose,
I can't even imagine moving 35 times but what a wonderful devotional on how change and struggles can help us to grow as we turn to God for our strength. It made me think about how many times I have moved which is 2 times. You can see I am a stick in the mud but even though I don't change physical position there are many challenges in other ways which I need to be grounded in God's Word to overcome with love. God has put us all on unique paths and we need to celebrate whatever our path is and learn from the good and the bad along the way and trust that God knows what we need. If we turn to him for his wisdom and guidance and surround ourselves with other Christians for support, we will be able to spread the hope that we have in Jesus. Thank you from sharing always from your heart.
Dear Rose,
Reading your devotion – one month after the destruction of Hurricane Michael – and weary from sorting, discarding and cleaning. It was a good reminder that this too shall pass.
Thanks for the hopeful message.
Dear Rose DeShaw,
Thank you for your devotional.
Keep writing.
