My irresponsible oldest brother Top left his 3 month old french bulldog puppy for a trip to Laos. I was stuck with the poor pup for over 2 weeks and since I'm forced to go for a walk every day, I might as well challenge myself and discover new parks/gardens in Brussels. Here's the diary of my dog-nephew Max:
The conclusion to this whole story: I'm still satisfied with being an auntie and not a mom. I may feel pride teaching him how to take stairs but waking up early every day to a kitchen filled with pee and poo isn't meant for me yet. I have however grown attached to the puppy and so would you. Just check out how cute he snores every evening after his walk.

Time flies, we are finally in the middle of summer and the first part of 2017 is over, time to reflect what I read and what I liked a lot.
Till now I read 51 Books. Two of these books did get dnf'ed (Made you up: horrible; The long way to a small angry planet: may get picked up again). I mixed in some classics, books I meant to read in ages and series friends recommended me. I feel that it was a really balanced TBR. But looking at my 2017 books right now, makes me realize that I really did not step out of my comfort zone as I had whished to do in the beginning of the year.
I set up a 2017 reading challenges which consisted of:
- 5 rereads
- 5 classics older than 1970
- and 3 non-fiction books
I completely fullfilled the rereads with: Krabat, The Bone Season, The Mime Order, ACOTAR and ACOMAF. I also finished Angelfall and I am planning on reading Pride and Prejudice and the whole Daughter of Smoke and Bone series. This was a too easy challenge, espacially since goodreads added the reread option. I will need to come up with something else next year.
(and yes, before you wonder, I did this because I felt I was not rereading enough since I was so ambitious about finishing my goodreads challenge. This was my way to change this until goodreads blew all our minds and added the reread option on their own)
I nearly finished the classics: The Picture of Dorian Grey, Alice in Wonderland, Fahrenheit 451, Through the Looking Glass.
I didn't even open one non-fiction book. It's not that I didn't try, but I couldn't find any book that interested me enough to go for it
I don't know how other peope do this thing, but I decided that I will go through my favourite reads regardless of the release date.
My 5 favourite books
5. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
by Lewis Carroll
Published 1865
Find the book on goodreads or amazon
Summary: a girl falls through a rabbit hole and ends up in wonderland
Yes, I haven't read it yet. I started several times and always failed. Here is the reason why: the german translation which I read before, sucks. Badly. It was boring and it was not readable. So this year I took the english original and and flew through the pages. It was so much fun to meet all these people finally. And now I finally can stand tall and be like, yes, I love Alice in Wonderland, I love all the characters, I know what the story is about and they became my best friends.
"But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.' 'How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice. 'You must be,' said the Cat, 'or you wouldn't have come here."
"If everybody minded their own business,' the Duchess said in a hoarse growl, 'the world would go round a deal faster than it does."
4. The Opportunist
by Tarryn Fisher
Published 2011
Find the book on goodreads or amazon
Summary: Olivia Kaspen has just discovered that her ex-boyfriend, Caleb Drake, has lost his memory. With an already lousy reputation for taking advantage of situations, Olivia must decide how far she is willing to go to get Caleb back. Wrestling to keep her true identity and their sordid past under wraps, Olivia's greatest obstacle is Caleb's wicked, new girlfriend; Leah Smith. It is a race to the finish as these two vipers engage in a vicious tug of war to possess a man who no longer remembers them. But, soon enough Olivia must face the consequences of her lies, and in the process discover that sometimes love falls short of redemption.
This was a surprise. I wanted to have a little feel good romance and got a gut-wrenching, tearful, heartbreaking, i-don't-know-how-to-deal-with-my-life-anymore love story. At times it was over-dramatic but it didn't make me roll my eyes. I just got sucked into the story and there it had to be overdramatic. This book teaches you, that even if people love each other, life can get inbetween and make it impossible. I loved the ending, I loved the humor and I hated the villain so much it made it impossible to read the second book.
"There is more to loving someone than just making yourself happy. You have to want him to be happier than you are."
"I was a relationship retard. I kicked, shoved, and punched people out of my life, so they never had a chance to hurt me."
"I had now officially secured my front row seat on the train to Hell. Choo choo"
3. The Rook
by Daniel O'Malley
Published 2012
Find the book on goodreads or amazon
Summary: "The body you are wearing used to be mine." So begins the letter Myfanwy Thomas is holding when she awakes in a London park surrounded by bodies all wearing latex gloves. With no recollection of who she is, Myfanwy must follow the instructions her former self left behind to discover her identity and track down the agents who want to destroy her.
She soon learns that she is a Rook, a high-ranking member of a secret organization called the Chequy that battles the many supernatural forces at work in Britain. She also discovers that she possesses a rare, potentially deadly supernatural ability of her own.
In her quest to uncover which member of the Chequy betrayed her and why, Myfanwy encounters a person with four bodies, an aristocratic woman who can enter her dreams, a secret training facility where children are transformed into deadly fighters, and a conspiracy more vast than she ever could have imagined.
Filled with characters both fascinating and fantastical, The Rook is a richly inventive, suspenseful, and often wry thriller that marks an ambitious debut from a promising young writer.
I got this book as a recommendation for underrated books from the book & writing amino. And it definitely belongs in that category. Sometimes you have these moments where you are fed up with all this YA Fantasy Romance, and you just want to have that down to earth book with funny jokes, a great story, quality writing and fleshed out characters. This is the Rook in a Nutshell, a mixture of Neil Gamains imagination, Douglas Adams sarcasm and Alice in Wonderland quirkiness. I read it at the perfect moment and I didn't regret one second of it. And just to repeat that NO ROMANCE!
"Yes, Minister, it turns out that there was a mysterious force that caused that plane to crash. We call it gravity."
2. The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavendar
by Lesly Walton
Published 2014
Find the book on goodreads or amazon
Summary: Foolish love appears to be the Roux family birthright, an ominous forecast for its most recent progeny, Ava Lavender. Ava — in all other ways a normal girl — is born with the wings of a bird. In a quest to understand her peculiar disposition and a growing desire to fit in with her peers, sixteen-year old Ava ventures into the wider world, ill-prepared for what she might discover and naive to the twisted motives of others. Others like the pious Nathaniel Sorrows, who mistakes Ava for an angel and whose obsession with her grows until the night of the summer solstice celebration. That night, the skies open up, rain and feathers fill the air, and Ava's quest and her family's saga build to a devastating crescendo. First-time author Leslye Walton has constructed a layered and unforgettable mythology of what it means to be born with hearts that are tragically, exquisitely human.
And because it gets mentioned nowhere else: Trigger warning this book contains scenes with sexual abuse and rape.
Led me warn you, the summary is misleading. I tried to find a better one, I even considered writing one on my own, but I believe it is impossible to summarize the story of the book to get all the aspects. In it Ava tries to tell you the story of her family, how love influenced the life of her mother and her grandmother, how they tried to deal with it and how it all influenced Ava in the end. It is one of the most beautiful books I have read in my life. It is slow, but deep. It hurt, and gave me hope. It leaves you with intense pictures in your head, that you will never get rid off. And maybe it is a warning for every women. No women needs a man, every woman can be self reliable. For a long time women were forbidden to live like that but times have changed. We are our own people. So never let that freedom get taken away from you.
"Children betrayed their parents by becoming their own people."
"…some sacrifices aren't worth the cost. Even, or perhaps most espacially, those made out of love."
"He came to appreciate that there were worse ways to live than to live without love."
"So, is it dangerous for us of for you?" "What do you mean?" "I mean, are you the threat, or are we?" "You are! Well, they are." I motioned to the cluster of teenagers. Of course it was them. Rowe peered at me thoughtfully. "Funny. I suspect they might say otherwise." He stood. "And that might just be the root of the problem: we're all afraid of each other, wings or no wings."
"Mon coeur entier pendant ma vie entière. My whole heart for my entire life."
"Just because love don't look the way you think it should, don't mean you don't have it."
oh yes, this is one of these books where you could basically quote every page
1. Our Dark Duet
by Vicotria Schwab
Published 2017
Find the book on goodreads or amazon
Summary: THE WORLD IS BREAKING. AND SO ARE THEY.
KATE HARKER isn't afraid of monsters. She hunts them. And she's good at it.
AUGUST FLYNN once yearned to be human. He has a part to play. And he will play it, no matter the cost.
Kate will have to return to Verity. August will have to let her back in. And a new monster is waiting—one that feeds on chaos and brings out its victims' inner demons.
Which will be harder to conquer: the monsters they face, or the monsters within?
This is the 2nd book from V.E. Schwab's Monster of Verity Series. And if you thought the first book was good, this one will blow your mind. I knew I would like the series, the moment I read the first synopsis and immediatly preordered This savage song. Though I never expected for the second Volume to rip me apart. The level of angst in this book is so real, I had to take several breaks to get it stomached. And even after the book, I get moments where I am overcome with an emotional outburst, remembering the things that happened in this book. This book will put you in emotional turmoil, you might get nightmares from it and wish for real life friends like August, Kate and the Wardens. Our Dark Duet will hit a lot of best book lists in the end of 2017. So be sure to pick it up, so you know what everyone is talking about.
"I know it hurts," she said. "So make it worth the pain."
"There were two kinds of monsters, the kind that hunted the streets and the kind that lived in your head. She could fight the first, but the second was more dangerous. It was always, always, always a step ahead."
"Mourning was its own kind of music—the sound of so many hearts, of so many breaths, of so many standing together."
"I didn't stop fighting," he said, the words so low he worried Kate wouldn't hear them, but she did. "I just got tired of losing. It's easier this way."
"Of course it's easier," said Kate. "that doesn't mean it's right."
"We do it, Jackson, because compassion must be louder than pride."

You wake up in the morning to the gentle ping from your smart watch at the ideal time during your sleep cycle. The smart watch is also telling you that if you want to wake up with your usual glass of orange juice tomorrow, you need to go to the store today. It's also telling you that the milk you've got is still good for another two days.
How would your watch know this? It's linked to your refrigerator that can tell what's in it and how much you have left. It also tells you which stores nearby are having a sale on orange juice.
Before you get up and shuffle your way into the kitchen for that orange juice, a sensor in your living room has already kicked on the heat – it knows your sleep patterns, and once you leave the house to head to work, it turns off the heat – saving energy and money.
And once you come back home, you unlock your house by pressing your hand to a panel that can read your palm print or the Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) chip that's been embedded in your skin.
This is the theoretical future of our world – it's called the Internet of Things. Items will have a digital presence built in with things like RFID tags, like barcodes, and wireless connection. You'll be surrounded by and part of a digital ecosystem.
Sounds magical and wonderful and sci-fi awesome? It is. The potential upside is huge with getting everything connected and theoretically streamlining your life in ways you hadn't imagined possible.
It's already happening. In Sweden this year, one company's office employees have had rice sized RFID chips implanted that allow them to wave their hands to get access to the building and to use machines like the copier. Think of all the passwords you can forget. And you'll never be locked out again.
But think through security and privacy ramifications before you jump on board. If your habits online and on your phone are being tracked in today's world, think of the information that will be out there if everything is connected.
Let someone else be the guinea pig for the connectivity experiments, and invest when the kinks have been worked out and you know your privacy will be secure.

Acountry's assets for future economic growth include new product and technology creation, development and commercialization by industry. Both start-up and mature corporations use private and public funds to finance these latter activities. Protecting those innovation by applying for patent protection and safeguarding trade secrets is a key part of the operations of a corporation – and essential for its investors and owners.
Innovation secrets are vulnerable to human espionage, yet many companies are unaware of the risks and points of vulnerability. The information in this article applies to all companies even though it focuses on the vulnerability of biotechnology companies. Only publicly available tools and methods of espionage are discussed. The present day and future methods of espionage are becoming even more sophisticated in terms of collection abilities and disguise/concealment but really don't change your vulnerability.
It is one thing to invest in electronic security systems to protect the facility from potential clandestine intruders but an industrial spy can be effective simply by gaining your trust and or friendship, or because in your urgent need to obtain financing you lowered your guard.
The effective human spy wears or possesses concealed tools that seem to be a simple pen, book, or brief case. A guided tour of the manufacturing or research facility is all that the human spy needs to clandestinely gather images of the processes or documents that they are allowed to read or view as you step out of the meeting to get coffee for the visitor.
Imagine the damage that can be done by a person that spends many months in a company! They had your trust so you never suspected that they could collect information while working so hard late at night. Even security at the front desk didn't notice the hundreds of pages of information collected in the camera concealed within a textbook and later downloaded at home for internet transfer to their real employer.
Concealment of espionage tools like cameras has been used for centuries and today it is even simpler due to the size of the equipment. You signed the non-disclosure agreement and they gladly agreed that you would not provide copies of the sensitive technological process. You run through the presentation of the technology using a PowerPoint presentation, answering their questions and end the meeting looking forward to doing business with them in the near future. Did you realize that the brief case on the desk full of paper actually had a video recorded concealed in it and that your entire presentation was recorded? Probably not because you had a good feeling about the person, he was friendly and had a strong hand shake.
Document shredders tend to give a false sense of security. The size of the shredding defines the difficulty in re-assembling the document. Many shredders used today in companies slice paper into spaghetti size shreds of paper and these can unfortunately easily and readily be re-assembled. The ultimate security is shredding the documents into pea sized bits of paper or burning the documents. The pea sized bits of paper are probably adequate to protect the majority of industrial secrets. The information from charred documents can also be recovered using standard forensic methods. If burning is your method of destruction, ensure that the end product is crushed ashes.
Throwing spaghetti shreds of paper or intact paper into the garbage is asking for trouble. A garbage bag is like an apple, it is for picking! Human industrial spies can certainly obtain huge amounts of information from documents considered non-sensitive or non-confidential in the garbage.
It is excellent to shred into a pea size bit the draft of the new patent application, but what about the sheets of paper underneath the pages you were writing on? Remember that when you write on a piece of paper that the imprint of the trace of the pencil or pen remains as an indentation in several of the sheets of paper of the pad. When writing a trade secret or sensitive information, remove the sheet of paper from the pad and write your text after placing the sheet onto a hard surface where no indentation can remain on its surface.
Protecting against clandestine spy activities involves educating your employees about how easy it is to collect sensitive information using concealed devices. Ensure that you have adequate document destruction methods and don't leave trusted and friendly guests in a room when you step out for a few minutes. Screening a potential employee or research fellow involves more than looking at their educational qualifications. Talk to several references to find out more.

AMAZING: THUPPARIVAALAN RESTAURANT FIGHT MAKING VIDEO!Home > Tamil Movies > Tamil Cinema News
By Anirudh | Sep 16, 2017
Mysskin's next directorial venture featuring Vishal, Thupparivaalan released yesterday and has gone on to receive positive reviews from critics and fans alike.
The film's music and stunt sequences were highly praised and the team has now released a making video of one of the fine stunt scenes set in a Chinese restaurant. Scroll down to catch the video.
''I FELT THAT THUPPARIVAALAN LACKED AN EMOTIONAL CONNECT'', POPULAR DIRECTOR'S STATEMENTHome > Tamil Movies > Tamil Cinema News
By Arvind Sundaram | Sep 14, 2017
Director Mysskin's Thupparivaalan has released today (14th September) and has opened up to positive reviews from the critics and film lovers.
Director Suseenthiran registered his opinion about this Vishal starrer through a statement that he posted on Twitter. "The way Mysskin has conceived every scene in the film is top notch. The stunt sequences were equalent to the Hollywood films, and Karthik's cinematography was confined and focused.
Myself and my sister watched the film on a preview show. Though the film had been shot on a magnifying big scale, I felt that the film lacked an emotional connect, which Mysskin's Anjathey had. I didn't feel the emotional connect. So, I was thinking about the possibility of this film's commercial success while coming out of the theatre. I asked my sister, and she told she enjoyed the film very much.
There have been situations like this before, where the way I watch a film, and the way, fans watch a film differs. I didn't expect Goli Soda would turn out to be a big success after seeing the press show. I believed Jeeva would become a super hit film, but unfortunately, it didn't. Few things happen the opposite way.
I take up this film's success as a lesson to me and my thoughts. I have booked tickets for the film once again, to watch it along with the audience. This statement is neither a wishing letter, nor a review. This is just my opinion that I felt like sharing with you all. I truly want, and hope, the film becomes a blockbuster success."

ICICI PrUDENTIAL MF LAUNCHES A new fund offer
ICICI Prudential Pharma Healthcare and Diagnostics (P.H.D) Fund
NFO OPENS 25TH JUNE 2018 and closeson 9TH JULY 2018
"Turning India's improving health opportunities into wealth creation opportunities"
Highlights of the NFO:
ICICI Prudential Pharma Healthcare & Diagnostics (P.H.D) Fund is an Open Ended Equity Scheme, which aims to generate long term capital appreciation by investing into the entire spectrum of health-related sub sectors
§ India has one of the largest youth populations. However, with a senior citizen population at ~16Cr, together with increasing life expectancy, demand for healthcare is expected to increase significantly.
§ India has established itself as a global manufacturing and research hub by contributing ~10% of the world production volume, and 50% of its revenue comes from its pharmaceutical exports
§ Currently, at ~5% of GDP, the spending in India is much lower than other developed and developing economies.
§ Valuations are attractive and it's a good long term opportunity for investments in pharmaceutical sector
Chennai, June 26, 2018:
ICICI Prudential MF has announced the launch of ICICI Prudential Pharma Healthcare & Diagnostics (P.H.D) Fund. The scheme aims to capitalize on the long-term growth story of Indian healthcare as a whole. Rising income levels, increased health awareness, improvement in treatment technologies and penetration of health insurance has led to healthcare being one of the fastest growing segments in the country. In fact, India has established itself as a global manufacturing and research hub, which contributes around 10% to the world productive volume.
Sharing his views about the fund, Mr. Nimesh Shah, MD & CEO, said, "India continues to remain an under-penetrated market in terms of healthcare services and insurance. As such, non-discretionary spend coupled with increasing awareness make the theme a structural story for long period of time. Due to higher growth, the pharma sector has always traded at a premium relative to the market but the premium has narrowed down significantly in last few years. The recent underperformance of pharma stocks makes a strong case for investing now in this sector."
Caption - From Left Mr. S Haresh, Regional Head -Sales & Retail Tamil Nadu & Kerala and Mr. Atul Patel Fund Manager, ICICI Prudential Funds.
A renewed focus of the Government on providing healthcare facilities has put the spotlight back on this sector. In fact, the Government initiative, "Pharma Vision 2020" aims to make India a global leader in manufacturing as it enjoys the cost-efficient technology with the production cost around 40% lower than the western countries. The fund seeks to capitalize on all these investment opportunities.

Do you know when you feel vulnerable? When you feel you need a sense of protection?
If you're not sure, take a moment to think about it. What are the signs? What are some of the circumstances that typically feel uncomfortable to you?
When you do feel vulnerable or in need of protection, what steps do you take? Do they work for you? It's not unusual to develop unhealthy patterns of protection from shrinking to aggression. Are you able to react in a healthy way?
There are many different ways to empower and protect yourself. They typically involve creating boundaries. For example, when we're in a difficult situation, we can take a step backward, which clarifies our personal space and defines a boundary. Or we can politely decide to take a break to give ourselves some needed breathing room, some time to recenter ourselves.
It can be difficult to create a boundary if you've never had one, if your boundary has been violated through trauma, you're a highly sensitive person, or you feel you don't deserve one due to deceptive brain messages learned in early childhood.
Learning how to love yourself can be a first step to reclaiming a sense of personal space and defining your boundary. A strongly integrated sense of self is essential to health - physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. This is a healthy sense of self, which differs from clinging to self or egocentricity.
Creating a Protective Sphere
One simple way to feel strong and more protected on a regular basis is to visualize a protect bubble around you. This is a simple exercise you can do each day.
In her book, Heal Yourself with Qigong, Suzanne B. Friedman, LAC shares these steps for creating an energy-bubble for protection:
- "Stand… or sit upright in a chair with the backs of your hands resting on your thighs (palms up).
- Close your eyes and slow your breathing. Feel your whole body relax.
- Visualize a bubble around your body in your mind's eye. Take as much time as you need to mentally create a thick bubble enveloping you. Visualize and "see" the shape, color, and size of the bubble.
- Once you clearly see yourself surrounded by a bubble, draw up a memory of a time or an experience when you felt particularly powerful, calm, or in charge.
- Let that feeling emanate out of your body to fill the entire bubble. Take a minute or two to do this. Perhaps the feeling has a color or quality you can see that fills the bubble.
- After you have filled your bubble, take another moment to see and feel it around you.
- Take a few deep breaths after concluding the meditation."
Your mucous membranes including those in your gastrointestinal tract and other internal organs are also part of your boundary against foreign invaders like viruses, bacteria, and other micro-organism. If you wish, you can also imagine your mucous membranes as healthy, strong, and fully protective.
Your protective sphere many need an extra boost any time during the day when you are entering into or suddenly find yourself in an especially difficult or challenging situation. When that happens, take a moment to bring awareness to your bubble and refill it with your own sense of safety, power, strength, and calm.
You might get tripped up on step 4 if you've never had an experience of feeling powerful or protected. If that's the case, you can draw upon an image of someone you admire who is grounded and strong. Someone who seemingly doesn't have trouble with boundaries. Mysteriously, Xena, the Princess Warrior often pops up in my mind.
Like any new habit, creating and truly feeling the presence of a protective sphere takes time and diligence. It's not hard nor time-consuming. It can be done in minutes. It's simply a matter of taking time to create the visualization regularly each day until - eventually - the visualization becomes a part of you. The more often you practice creating your protective sphere, the more natural it will become and the stronger you will feel.
If you have trouble making this a regular habit - as I did for a very long time - the practice of loving kindness is a wonderful way to build your self-worth so that you feel deserving of self care and protection.
The Love Bubble
These days, I create my protective sphere as a natural extension of loving kindness practice, which is an antidote to fear and anger.
First, I envision the essence of love, compassion, and wisdom. It could be any spiritual figure, an image of light or someone who loved you unconditionally. Then I imaging all of her (or his) unconditional love pouring into my heart. I absorb it fully knowing that I am as worthy of love as any other being on this earth.
Next, I repeat the loving kindness phrases - first directing them towards myself - "May I be happy, May I be well, May I be safe." All the while I focus on my heart center, imaging this unconditional love in the form of light growing stronger and stronger and radiating within my heart. Then I allow the light and love to surround me like a protective sphere. After awhile, I move on to repeating and direct the loving kindness phrases to others.
Whenever I feel unsure during the day, I return to my heart center and reconnect with this vibrant sense of love that resides within me. I also take a few moments to repeat the loving kindness phrases, directing them towards myself, towards a difficult emotion that has sprung to life, or towards other people who also need a dose of kindness and love.
There are many different ways to create a sense of strength in your life. This is just one, but I find it profoundly healing myself.
Do you have moments when you feel you need added protection in your life? What do you do to feel a sense of strength, protection, and power?

CRESP Research Lab
About the CRESP Lab
The population of the United States is undergoing a significant transformation in its ethnic, cultural and economic demographics. With this increasing diversity, children from a variety of culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are being educated in public schools. School psychologists have an important role in understanding and meeting the needs of ethnic minority and/or immigrant groups, particularly as it relates to psychological adjustment and academic achievement (Ortiz & Flanagan, 2006). Furthermore, culture can be characterized by religion, spirituality, sociopolitical beliefs, values and traditions--all of which can play an important role in school psychological practice.
As a way to understand the intersection of culture and school psychological practice, it is important that assessment and treatment of children from diverse backgrounds is based on rigorous research. Evidence-based practices should be utilized across clinical settings to best meet the individual needs of children and their families. Often, however, research studies on assessment and treatment do not include children from diverse backgrounds. Consequently, a treatment that may work with one group may not be appropriate or responsive to the needs of another group.
The mission of the CRESP Research Lab is to understand how evidence-based practices can be used and implemented in a culturally responsive way for children and families from diverse backgrounds. The CRESP Lab seeks to understand how to further develop school psychologists' level of practice and culture competence, the intersection of culture and practice, and ways that evidence-based practices can be implemented to best meet the needs of children and families. Current projects are related to the practice of rural school psychologists, the impact of social networking on school psychologists' professional lives, sociopolitical beliefs that may impact practice, and the effectiveness of social skills groups for children with autism. Please see the left tabs for more detailed information about the various projects).
Are you interested in being a member of the CRESP Lab?
If you are an undergraduate student in Psychology and you are interested in joining the lab, please email Dr. Goforth.
Dr. Goforth will be taking at least one doctoral student in SY 2018-2019. Students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply. She part of the Directory of School Psychology Faculty Addressing Culture and Diversity.
The PhD Program in School Psychology is now fully accredited by the American Psychological Association. See the press release here.
News About the Lab
Three doctoral students from the CRESP Lab received prestigious post-doctoral fellowships and were highlighted by the Missoulian (May 2019).
Undergraduate research assistants Lacey DeSalles, Jacinda Lovejoy, and Jack Michaels under supervision of Olivia Holter, doctoral student, were received the 2018 UMCUR Award at the University of Montana Conference of Undergraduate Research.

Dan | Fitness
I was very excited to shoot Dan for the second time this year! He was super pumped (no pun intended) and very photogenic this time around. I was honored he invited me to capture and witness all his hard work and dedication he put into his physique. He's an inspiring personal trainer and truly on to great things! Here's an excerpt he wrote me about the struggles he went through to get to where he is today. I hope his words can inspire you like they did me!
"Pursuing a career in fitness has always been a dream of mine, ever since I stepped foot out of the last treatment center I was at for my eating disorder! Throughout high school, my life took a drastic turn for the worst when I was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, which basically is just a name to describe the symptoms that I lived with.
Within a short amount of time I was hospitalized for being anorexic. I had a bruised liver and weighed around 110 pounds at the same height that I am to this day. It was a struggle to say the least. After being hospitalized, I was in and out of treatment and depression started to really take over my life or what I thought was "life". I became suicidal and I had plans on committing suicide, in all honesty I lost all hope for myself and my life in general. If it wasn't for my mom getting me to admit I was suicidal, I probably wouldn't be here today. This is where I was sent to my last intensive treatment which was the best thing that ever happened to me. After being discharged from this treatment I was in a much better frame of mind, I gained some weight back and I started to actually feel human again.
As my mom and I were driving home from the treatment center in Baltimore I made a goal for myself. The goal was that I overcome what brought me down so low in the past and to pursue fitness and hopefully bring others to see the potential that they have in themselves. I live with a lot of regret because of my past with the eating disorder but I've now learned that it shaped me to the person I am today. Every time I step in the gym it makes me remember where I was to where I am now and it's the fuel to my fire. I am now a certified personal trainer and plan on going back to school to study nutrition to become an RD! I'm not here to impress others, I'm here to bring control over my life and live a life that I can be happy about! When it's all said and done, the only thing that matters to me is that I'm happy and that I'm to spread happiness to others around me!'

I wrote a while back that I am not a huge fan of white potatoes. I wasn't lying, this is still 100% true. Sweet potatoes will always be my favorite starchy tuber weakness.
BUT, on rare occasions I find myself in need of white, fluffy, creamy mashed potatoes.
I have no idea. It makes no sense. But, who am I to question the potato craving?
Having spent 3 years at boarding school and then college, I have eaten my fair share of cafeteria mashed potatoes. When I think of these mass-produced potatoes, I think of gluey, flavorless carbohydrates.
no bueno. However, when you cook for hundreds of people, you do what you can.
I don't ever plan on cooking for hundreds of people, so no glue here (which actually happens from over mixing).
My favorite mashed potatoes (and the ones pictured here) are slightly chunky with the skin on, but feel free to peel your potatoes and mash to your hearts content.
Butter, cream and sour cream (and salt!) are mandatory whenever I make mashed potatoes. Not too much, but just enough to prevent me from grabbing the ketchup from the refrigerator (which is ok, too, since ketchup is amazing).
Easy Mashed PotatoesPrint Recipe Pin Recipe Rate Recipe
- 1 lb. red potatoes - washed and cut into quarters
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- salt + pepper - to taste
- In a large pot, cover quartered potatoes with cold, salted water. Bring water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until potatoes are fork tender, approximately 20-25 minutes. Remove from heat and drain the water once the potatoes have finished cooking.
- When the potatoes are nearly finished cooking, combine the butter, milk, cream and sour cream in a small bowl or sauce pan and heat (stovetop or microwave). Set aside.
- Gently pour drained potatoes into a large bowl. Pour the heated cream, milk, butter and sour cream over the potatoes and mash with a potato masher. Add salt and pepper (at least 1 teaspoon of salt) and mash until desired texture and consistency is reached (I prefer mine slightly chunky).

Regardless if you are a fan of the arts, a long distance runner, or a freelance writer, these things are great only if you enjoy them. In order to "do something that you love", there has to be a purpose that motivates you or inspires you to take actions.
I have been asked several times what was the purpose and inspiration behind this website. Hoping my answers will show you how this writer was inspired to write…
WHY DID YOU CREATE THIS WEBSITE? I wanted to share with others how words, emotions, and thoughts are valuable tools. Tools that can change lives by recognizing and being aware of what we say to others and, more importantly, what we say to ourselves.
WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR DAILY THEMES? Most of the time, I have no idea what I am going to write until I am at the computer That is why sometimes the website is updated earlier in the day or could become a midnight post, like today. As most writers do, I keep a small notebook handy to jot down ideas which often come up when I am out walking Jasper.
WHY DO YOU DO THE MOTIVATIONAL MINUTES? As a mother, I learned from watching the different learning styles of my son and other children. Some did best when instructions were read to them, a few did better when they saw demonstrations, while others understood best with examples written on a chalk board. That's when I realized that some readers might enjoy a blog style (article) or quick grabs (self-talk.) The motivational minutes was my way of introducing me – Karen – as the friend on the other side of the writing. This would allow readers to hear my voice, my tone, the way I emphasize certain words, and to feel my emotion.
Take some time to do things that you love. Empower yourself to find new activities, new talents, and discover a new self-appreciation for your abilities. Ask yourself, are you ready to use your powers, discover new joy, and have some fun?

Jofi Joseph was foreign policy expert for the White House before he was recently fired for his anonymous twitter account postings, which he held for two years. Under the name @natsecwonk, Joseph would take shots at political rivals like Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney, but his musing turned to criticism against co-workers and administration policy.
The Ten of Pentacles in the standard position stands for home and family, stability, and thrust. We see a father figure playing/feeding his dogs with his family socializing. Its a relaxing time after a dinner. The grapes at his side show bounty and good times.
But in the reverse position (upside down) this card means gossip, sneakiness and craving admiration. Until he was fired, Jofi was part of the Obama administration's trusted family. But that was not enough. He desired to gossip, to gain attention, to hide behind a fake name and get a charge out of it.
We all know a Jofi type. He/she is the person in the family that spills a trusted secret like a family members drinking or drug use, or a brother or sisters secret sexuality. Or these people simply like to get a charge by talking behind someones back.
In the picture on the card we see to figures in the background talking. The one with his back turned represents the gossip when this card is Reversed.

So that Nintendo Switch presentation was pretty amazing, but it left many questions unanswered. Is it backwards compatible? What's going on with the Virtual Console, if there even is one? Most importantly, where the hell is Metroid!? The Switch has the potential to be a fantastic portable retro machine, something Nintendo has plenty of competition in. Companies like Hyperkin and Retro-bit are all too happy to re-release Nintendo's systems. Their success proves NIntendo could do well in that area.
That Zelda trailer is seriously impressive. I can't wait!
Zelda at launch was imperative
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild looks amazing, no doubt about it. I'm blown away by its gorgeous visuals, and surprisingly emotional story telling. It will be an incredible game, hands down. It coming out at launch is possibly the most important thing about it. The Wii U date wasn't mentioned specifically, so it might have timed exclusivity on the Switch to promote interest. We're still a little ways off, and I'm guessing Nintendo will host a Nintendo Direct sometime between now and launch to tell us about more launch games.
Is it backwards compatible?
Nintendo has only so far said that it will not be compatible with physical media from the Wii U and 3DS. However, they did not mention if it would play the older system's games at all. There is still a chance they could play your downloaded titles. For me personally, being able to transfer my games on 3DS and Wii U is almost as important as what comes out on the Switch. At first, anyways, while the library is still small.
But what about the Virtual Console?
For me as a serious retro gamer, this is probably the most important thing. Interestingly, they didn't seem to say anything about it. However, they did mention how their online service would be free until Fall, then would switch (get it?) to a paid subscription model. They did not mention prices. On their homepage, however, they say that in addition to online gaming and the like, you will be able to download one NES or SNES game (with added online play) for free for the month. While I'm not crazy about only getting to keep the game for a month, it's a step in a less wrong direction than pretty much all their online efforts up until this point. Who's up for co-op River City Ransom with me?
Where's Metroid?!
Retro Studios has been awfully quiet for the last few years. People have come and gone, but recently they seemed to go on a small hiring spree. Hopefully, this indicates a need for a lot of talent, and not a sign that employees are leaving en masse. Again, my prediction is that we will see another Nintendo Direct between now and launch that will detail more launch titles and more games to get stoked about in the coming months. I'm really hoping for a new Metroid game. I think a VR headset would compliment a new Metroid Prime game very well, and luckily, Nintendo has a patent out for a headset much like Samsung uses for their phones. Fingers crossed, guys!
Where does Nintendo go from here?
Sony has created an absolute titan with the PlayStation 4, and Nintendo will have to pull out all the stops to topple this giant. I'm not sure Nintendo has the business sense to do it, but here's hoping. While I have never been in charge of a multi-billion dollar corporation like Tatsumi Kimishima has, I have watched Nintendo bury their head in the sand for the last several years about the situation around them.
If they run sales the way their competitors do, I think they could do well. Right now, they're coming in late to the game, at the same price (or higher. Sony and Microsoft both offered amazing deals on their systems over the holidays), and with a very small game library. Being able to transfer your Wii U and 3DS titles, along with a strong Virtual Console much like their efforts on the Wii were would be a huge deal.
Obviously, they have other business ventures. The Universal Studios will be a big deal. Amiibos are slowing down in momentum, and the NES Classic edition is impossible to get. I personally hope that they release an SNES and N64 classic system as well. On top of that, rumors have been swirling for years about a movie or TV show deal. Miyamoto himself even directed some short Pikmin movies when the third game came out. Nintendo should consider the possibility of having a AAA studio such as Pixar/Disney or Studio Ghibli make a movie starring one of their characters. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is even openly inspired by the looks of Studio Ghibli movies, so that would be an obvious choice.
What do you think?
Where is Nintendo headed? To success? To failure? To mediocrity? Let us know what you think about the Switch and what you think it will need to succeed.

The targeted savings figures have just been revealed for the framework agreement with DHL Express and Eagle Couriers, which was finalised in May.
The deal is open to all Scottish public sector organisations, Procurement Scotland said, and will enable more efficient and effective use of these services.
"Courier services is one of a range of Scottish procurement contracts established under the Scottish Public Procurement Reform Programme, which delivered £327 million savings in its first two years to 2007/08, in addition to more than £200 million in procurement-related efficiencies," Procurement Scotland said in a statement.
The suppliers were appointed following a review of all courier contracts to centralised services. The deal amalgamates courier services including same day, overnight and international deliveries for central government, local government, universities and colleges, the police and fire services, and the NHS at pre-agreed rates. It is also open to charities.
Prior to winning the contract, DHL held several Scottish government courier deals. Manish Joshi, managing director, same day, for DHL Express UK, said: "This is a very important time for the Scottish public sector to be reviewing its partners to ensure its getting the most cost effective and efficient service."
Earlier this week, Sir Philip Green, owner of the Acadia Group, said in a report to the UK government that one of the problems with public procurement was suppliers often have multiple contracts with several public sector bodies, each under different terms.

Earlier this summer, California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced a plan to replace some of his state's high school text books with free, "open source" online versions.
Such initiatives are not only a reaction to the way today's children and future generations process information, but also provide an answer to questions of expenditure, as well as more environmentally friendly options for disseminating information. In addition, the open-source nature of the content-it is provided for free from a multitude of sources-will prove a serious threat to traditional textbook publishers. It will be hard for them to compete with educational content that is not only cheaper to obtain, but highly customizable, featuring video, interactive activities, and student-created content.
How do you feel about a world without textbooks?

The first permanent farm bill was passed in 1938 when farming was much different than it is today. But the purpose of the bill still basically remains the same; to establish and oversee programs that maintain an abundant food supply and help farm families be successful.

Claudia Clare's the 'C; word
Thank you to Claudia Clare for writng such an observant and inspirational blog on her site the ' C' word. I am delighted to be mentioned and linked to the site. having only recently developed a conciousness about womens' issues relating to images in popular culture and consumerism i am relieved that i was able to communicate something of these concerns in the narrative of the work which i felt was possibly a little self indulgent. oh well it wasn't such a bad gamble perhaps.

#dontcallmecrazy, My name is Val/
Having grown up with a bipolar mother I was educated on mental illnesses pretty early. Although my mom had tried (and succeeded) to hide her mental illnesses from us by being a very positive, outgoing and happy role model, my parents' divorce set her back. It got too hard to hide from us because she was feeling worse than she had in a long time and because we (my little sister and I) were older, and we could sense something was off.
So she decided to tell us how she had struggled with her mental health since she had been a child and how her uncle had killed himself. I remember asking myself how a person can feel like they want to die.
It was only a couple of years later that I came to understand how deep this desire and despair really goes and how long I had been struggling with it myself.
I have depression, anxiety with panic attacks and depersonalisation. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety at the age of fifteen. I've been on antidepressants since I was sixteen. I have been in a mental hospital twice and although it wasn't for a long time, it helped me understand some things better. I have been going to therapy irregularly since I was diagnosed.
When I was eleven-years-old I was bullied. I used to lock myself in the bathroom and cry. Then, I'd come home and fight with my mom because I was so stressed and sad. At the time I didn't know what bullying or mental health was, but it triggered anxiety in me that had always been there and has gotten worse ever since.
It's something I have to deal with every day. It sits at the back of my mind, feeding my insecurities, telling me it's never enough and making me restless. It doesn't allow me to sleep. It makes me scared of school and failure and life. When it's really bad I get panic attacks, and then the whole world stops and I have to battle for breath, survival. At least that's what it feels like.
Then there is depression. Somehow the total opposite of anxiety, exhausting me, draining me of all energy and wish to live. It tells me "why bother? You are going to fail anyway." I battle my own mind every single day and on the really bad days, every single second. I can't fall asleep and when I do fall asleep, I can't get up. Sometimes even the idea of getting dressed is too much to handle.
So because it all became too much to handle, my brain decided to create an emergency break: depersonalisation. It's like everything becomes distant. You stop physically feeling and it's as if you're not inside of your own body. Voices seem distant, even touch feels weird. And you stop caring. That's the most dangerous part. You stop feeling altogether. Emptiness is all there is left when your brain traps you inside of yourself.
Even though all this is bad enough on it's own, for me one of the hardest parts of having a mental illness is struggling with all the people in my life who don't understand and just label me as lazy, showing disappointment instead of support. A lot of people in my life don't realize that I struggle and fight every single day and that I'm exhausted because my own mind is fighting against me most of the time. That I can't do certain things because they overwhelm me and make me panic. That I am trying my best and fighting really hard.
That's something mental disease does to you. It isolates you from the ones you love because you're too scared to burden them, disappoint them. Or, you simply don't feel like you'll get the support you need because you don't understand yourself, what is going on, and whether or not you're just crazy and lazy or it's real and treatable. But if there is one thing therapy has taught me is that mental diseases are very real. Going to therapy has been a part of my life ever since I've been a child, and although I have been to different therapists (some more fitting for me then others) and I haven't done so regularly, I am grateful for it. I am not ashamed, nor have I ever been so, because of it, because I believe that it takes a lot of courage to ask for help. I would really encourage everyone to seek help when they feel they need it and I want people to know it's okay.
All these struggles, the tears, and the pain have made me who I am today. They have made me strong. I have good days and I have bad days. Sometimes I just want to give up but I don't. And that is something I'm proud of so I want the world to listen, to open their eyes and change the stigmas we've got about mental health. By sharing our experiences, speaking up, educating people, we can change that. We can encourage compassion and encouragement.
At the end of the day, depression taught me to be grateful for all the good things, no matter how small. Anxiety has taught me to overcome fear. Depersonalisation has taught me that giving up and not caring is never the answer. And that's what I want to share, to project in my life and to teach other people.
#dontcallmecrazy. My name is Valeria and I have #depression and #anxiety, but it does not have me.
- Val H.M., 2018

The above links are for the anonymous coins, for those with a named moneyer take a look at the appropriate section:
Page updated: March 18th 2017
Class 3 imitations have been primarily sub-divided by Churchill and Thomas into those with colons in the obverse legend (imitating classes 3a2, 3c, 3d1, 3d2) and those without (classes 3a/3b); there being 185 colon coins and 751 non-colon coins in the BH. In their book, Churchill and Thomas provide a detailed catalogue of all the class 3 imitations. Although the majority of the coins can be identified as imitations of the London or Canterbury mints, there are coins which can be identified as coming from some of the other mints including Gloucester, Hereford, Northampton, Wallingford and Winchester. Many of the class 3 imitations have legends which cannot be clearly assigned to a particular mint.
Coins are arranged firstly by mint imitated, where this can be interpreted. Coins relating to unknown mints are listed at the end. London and Canterbury mints are followed by the provincial mints, which are scarcer. Secondly, the class 3 coins are subdivided under each mint by those having no colon after REX from those that have.

text: Share: Comments Print October 2, 2012 at 10:47 AM How to defend your obsession with cute online pet photos Posted by Monica Guzman Awwww … (Image: Wikimedia Commons) If you're hooked on cute pet photos online and want to defend your love against naysayers, Jonah Peretti, founder of viral monster BuzzFeed, has just the argument you need.It's no. 8 on his list of 13 ways to make something go viral: "Cute animals deserve respect." (Conspicuously absent from his list: "Make things a list.") People joke that the Internet is made for kittens. But animals play an important role by helping us humans feel closer to each other. When you go home for the holidays, the whole family gathers around the family dog, pets the dog, feels affection for the dog, but also feels closer to each other. On Facebook, the billions of animal pictures let people say "awwwww" with the people in their lives and that shared empathic emotion is a big part of being human. In Philip K. Dick's classic sci-fi book, "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep," one of the ways to tell if someone was human (and not an android) was empathy toward animals. If you are worried someone you know might be an android, send her this post and if she shows no emotion, you know she is actually a robot. Did Peretti actually use classic literature to defend lolcats and the like? Yes, yes, he did. Comments | More in Habits
