The Pursuing the Ideal Self IQ Matrix explores the steps we can follow to reach a state of self-actualization where we are pursuing the very best of what we are capable of becoming. You have your "current" self and you also have your "ideal" self. Your current self is who you know you are right now. While your ideal self is who see yourself becoming as you move forward into the future. It is in essence a better version of the "self" you experience today. It's of course not a perfect version, because it is an ever changing version of yourself that will always remain somewhat elusive. However, pursuing your ideal self leads to tremendous growth opportunities that can help you become a better version of yourself everyday.
Here is a quick break down of each branch of Pursuing the Ideal Self IQ Matrix:
- The Ideal You: Your self-ideal is essentially who you would like to become based on your current reality and circumstances. This first branch breaks down what the self-ideal is all about and lays out some insights that will help you gain a better idea of what it means to pursue your self-ideal.
- Shaping Your Self-Ideal: This second branch breaks down a four step process that will help you to shape your self-ideal with purpose. You must first analyze your current and ideal self to get a better idea of where you are and where you would like to ideally be. And the remaining three steps of the process will help you to further shape the ideal vision you have for yourself moving forward. The steps are simple and straightforward, however it will take discipline and commitment to follow through with them every single day.
- Gaining More Clarity: In order to clarify your self-ideal even further it's helpful to undertake a visualization activity that takes you to a future date where the current "you" is now living as the ideal "you". This third branch poses you several key questions that will help you to identify what that ideal "you" is really like at this future time.
- Self-Actualization: The final branch discusses Abraham Maslow's "need" for self-actualization. Self-Actualization sits at the top of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and it is the most elusive of all human needs. This is a state where your self-ideal is as congruent as possible with your self-image/behavior. However, in order to reach this level of "being" it's important to live in accordance with the guidelines outlined by Abraham Maslow — presented within this branch.
Stick with these principles, memorize and incorporate them into your life, and you will progressively add new layers to your persona that will help you to become a better version of yourself each and every day. It's of course a process that will take time. In fact, it's a process that never ends as your self-ideal will constantly change and evolve depending on your current life situation and circumstances. However, the goal is to reach a stage where your self-ideal is as closely intertwined with your current behavior (self-image) as possible. It is of course at that point where you will find most happiness, life satisfaction and fulfillment.

We have an outdoor pool, but me and my hubby are thinking of getting a suana since we love to relax and a sauna is one of the best options for relaxing and rejuvenating yourself. I went surfing on the internet and found this really cool place called http://www.poolsupplyunlimited.com where they have several affordable saunas to choose from. Aside from a sauna, they also have pool and spa accessories and they carry the top brands in the market today. This would be a great place for those people like us who are looking to buy an affordable, yet high quality pool supply and accessories.

TMZ is reporting that Waka Flocka Flame was involved in a shootout today when his tour bus came under gun fire, however, he thankfully dodged the bullets that were shot. This happened outside of a car stereo store in Charlotte, North Carolina. Eyewitnesses tell TMZ that multiple shots were fired.
This is the piece from TMZ: We're told Waka — real name Juaquin Malphurs — was on his tour bus outside a car stereo shop when two cars pulled up next to the bus and opened fire. Waka was not hit. An eyewitness tells us Waka's security team returned fire on the cars and hit at least one of them. Waka's publicist confirms his security team fired shots — and says the bus was shot 4 times. FOXCharlotte is reporting police have detained multiple people — and that one person was shot in the shoulder.
It should be noted that this isn't Waka's first time at the end of the barrel as he was also shot during a robbery back in January 2010.

In order to get my head around the vast wild abyss known as Science, I've compiled a list of starting points to eat one chunk at a time. I've started with the more obvious questions at this initial stage of the project in order to bury my head into it and start creating straight away. As of right now I have absolutely no idea on this particular cell or it's functions but I am assured that by the and of this 9 weeks I'll know more than I'd want to. Having saying that, I love finding out new facts and learning new things.

Who are the 5 main characters in the Book Misfits by James Howe? I know 4 of the characters: Joe, Bobby, Addie, and Skeezie. But who is the last one?
- print Print
- list Cite
You have named all four of the main characters. They call themselves the Gang of Five even though there are only four of them. They figure that is a good name since there is likely another social outcast like them that will need to join the group someday.
There are other characters in the book that make frequent appearances, but I would not call them main characters. The first would be Mr. Kiley. He is the school principal. Another is Mr. Kellerman. He is Bobby's boss at the tie store. Ms. Wyman is Addie's homeroom teacher, and it is in that class that Addie refuses to say the pledge of allegiance. Kevin Hennessey doubles as a popular type kid who also is a bully to the Gang of Five. Dushawn Carter also functions in that capacity.

This October, the dreaded Malekith has returned – and not even the God of Thunder can stop him alone as The Accursed continues in Thor: God of Thunder #14! From writer Jason Aaron and artist Ron Garney – the Mighty Thor must enlist the help of some unlikely allies in his quest to stop Malekith from butchering Dark Elves across the Nine Realms. But who are the mysterious League of Realms? And what do they have to do with Malekith the Accursed and his bloody rampage? Thor: God of Thunder #14 has the answer.
There's all sorts of reasons to get on board this issue. Apart from the reunion of Aaron and Garney, who previously collaborated on the highly regarded 2008 story arc Wolverine: Get Mystique, the character of Malekith will be played by Christopher Eccleston in the forthcoming Thor: The Dark World.
Check out the preview pages from the comic below. It goes on sale 9 October 2013 from Marvel.

Drop-Octave Drone Didgeridoos
A Drop Octave didgeridoo is one that has a mouthpiece size large enough to allow the lips to vibrate and octave below the fundamental drone. Different than the common Jaw Drop technique where the pitch is bent a whole step or 2 down from the fundamental, the Drop Octave produces a drone similar to an instrument twice it's length. For example a conical high G didgeridoo of about 4 feet in length with a large enough mouthpiece will produce a drone one octave below. This dropped G drone will sounds similar to a twelve foot conical low G didgeridoo.
—————— below this Line is un edited pasted info from the previous site , updates coming soon———
The Game Changer. Right beneath our noses yet somehow undeveloped for didgeridoo until now.
I took almost all of 2008 off from making didgeridoos for sale to develop this technique and figure out how to build the best didgeridoos specifically for the technique. It enables a player to play pitches normally only reachable with extremely long didgeridoos on very short didgeridoos. Most recently as of september 2009 I have been able to play drones as low as low low A. thats a whole octave below what most didgeridoo players would consider a low A that would normally requires a 6-10 foot didgeridoo to play. so on a 6-10 foot didgeridoo, I am able to hit a low A that would normally require a 12-20 foot didgeridoo to generate.
Concave mouthpiece
shape for ease of play
out of the front with a
large mouth piece. see
mouthpiece design section.
This requires a mouthpiece size that is generally larger than most didge players are accustomed too. larger mouthpieces are more conducive to a large range of lip movement and although they are more difficult to master, in the end they leave you with much more control over advanced styles of playing. the inside diameter of the mouthpieces generally range in size from a little over 1 1/4 to as big as 1/1/2 inches. not only are the mouthpieces for these didgeridoos bigger, their shape is different as well. (for more on this Mouthpiece shape see the Crafting section). I want to emphasize that this technique is 100% lip control and has nothing to do with dropping the jaw, using double bore or slide didgeridoos.

The Philippine Association of Water Districts (PAWD) conducted a consultation meeting with water laboratory experts from various local water districts (LWDs) last May 21, 2015 at the LWUA, Quezon City.
Said meeting is in support of the Department of Health's (DOH) efforts to update the 2007 Philippine National Standards for Drinking Water (PNSDW) which aims to cope with the current developments in the water sector, both local and international, as well as to address the issues and limitations of the existing manual.
More than 15 chemists and medical technologists from 16 LWDs provided inputs and data during the discussion, which was facilitated by GM Pantaleon Tabanao of Laguna WD and GM Alma Abrasaldo of Bayawan City WD. Both GMs are part of a Technical Working Group (TWG) formed by the DOH that will serve as a review group of the draft drinking water standards.
According to GM Abrasaldo, the involvement said laboratory personnel is enormously crucial as these are the people who are in-charge in making sure that the LWDs are providing potable water.
"Their experiences and the expertise were very useful as we prepare our recommendations to be presented in the TWG meeting in May", GM Abrasaldo said.
"The meeting also paved the way for benchmarking among the LWDs in the area of water quality," she added. "Right now, we are also looking at the possibility of holding a seminar on water quality to help our fellow LWDs and to encourage them to have their own laboratories."
During the first TWG meeting, GM Abrasaldo was appointed as the committee chair on acceptability issues. Some of the issues PAWD raised are the absence of some chemical contaminants in water and frequency of testing, the standardization of the use of chlorine dioxide and its residual test, among others.
GM Tabanao, on the other hand, said that being part of the TWG is a great opportunity for PAWD and its member-LWDs to propose changes on the current PNSDW.
"We will continue to be deeply involved in the revision of the standards as we are a major player in the water industry of this country", he added.
The revision of the PNSDW was spearheaded by the DOH and the World Health Organization, with the assistance of the University of the Philippines College of Public Health Foundation. (Karlo Abarquez)

I love homemade muffins! I make them often because they are super easy, super fast and a great way to cram them with fruit!
The other morning my little guy and I used my all-time favorite blueberry muffin recipe but rather than using blueberries, we used blackberries…they were DELICIOUS! My kids love them and give them their seal of "kid approval!"
Let me show you how we made them!
Here's the recipe. Enjoy!!
- 1½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup milk
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease muffin cups or line with muffin liners.
- To make the muffins, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Place vegetable oil into a 1-cup measuring cup; add the egg and enough milk to fill the cup. Mix this with the flour mixture. Fold in blackberries. Fill muffin cups ⅔ full and bake.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until done. (my oven takes about 17 minutes)
Thanks for stopping by! I'd love for you to FOLLOW ME!!

A Sacred Intimate is a teacher who takes you step by step into feeling more comfort, connection and pleasure in your body. S/he guides you back to a state of recognizing, experiencing and enjoying your body sensations. We have been told to disregard and distrust the information percolating up from the gut, genitals, heart, and skin. Instead, we are told to trust only our head or intellect.
This is an unbalanced and dangerous way to live, as the mind is quick to play many tricks. If we are separated from our body wisdom that comes from the neck down, we feel hurried, confused and unable to enjoy pleasure. We have moved from our natural evolution of living (slowly) in the body to a hyper-fast life of living from the neck up. A Sacred inmate is trained to reintegrate our body-mind-spirit as we were designed to live by nature.
A Sacred Intimate is trained to help a client re-sense his/her body information that is constantly available at every moment. By getting a student to listen to the simple and profound messages coming from the body, s/he can make decisions–whether in bed sexually, or out of bed in life–that are authentic, safe, empowering and pleasurable.
When it comes to sexuality, most of us do not understand how to create a container of safety. As a Sacred Intimate, I use different body-based techniques such as conscious breath, intention, touch, choice, and permission to teach safe and passionate play. Always coming back to what you 'notice' or 'observe' in your body, a client develops a sense of 'being present' in the moment, instead of being anxious about the future or depressed about the past.
Sensing and being able to verbalize what is going on in one's own body is monumental for most people and expands one's potential to be sexually at ease and feel pleasure. Good sex is simply learning to feel more sensation in the body and interacting with others in a way that feels clear and full of choice.
With a Sacred Intimate you experience sacred embodiment--you inhabit your body with ease and confidence, give and receive pleasure with a 100% full heart and not loose yourself. You learn to trust your yes and no and reserve the right to change your mind. You express your desires without shame, and to share authentically who you are in each moment. Sacred Embodiment means you feel safe in your own body. You enter delicious realms of deep surrender and ecstasy because passionate play is based on consent and permission.
There is a physiological change that happens when we come from a deep sense of embodiment–especially if it is sacred embodiment–we can truly celebrate our commonality and communion with our partner and all life. We feel an elated sense of well-being, a timeless and treasured joy to be alive. Our hearts open. We become refreshed and enlightened.
Here's a Sacred Intimates blog I contribute to along with several other teachers.

Disabled Persons, Legal Status of: The legal position of the disabled in the Austrian legal system is determined by a great number of legal regulations at provincial as well as at federal level. The reason for the fragmentation of this field of law is that the Austrian Constitution does not assign competences for the concerns of disabled persons. This is also one reason why no uniform concept has been defined describing disability as a basis for rights, duties and (social) benefits.
Concerns of disabled persons in the context of social law are dealt with by the provincial authorities either in the framework of general public assistance, or within separate welfare acts for disabled or blind persons. According to these regulations, disabled people are generally entitled to payments in kind, such as medical aid, institutional care, orthopaedic care, occupational therapy and placement in a Sheltered Workshop. However, these entitlements are only of a subsidiary nature, i.e. they may only be claimed if the disabled person has no title to help arising from other legal provisions and cannot, as may be the case in isolated cases, achieve a reasonable degree of self-sufficiency.
The granting of attendance allowances for persons needing care was standardised at the federal level in the Federal Attendance Allowance Act (BPGG, Federal Law Gazette 1993/110), which entered into force on July 1, 1993. Up to that date, direct payments based on various sources of law had been made at provincial and federal level. Payments were standardised in order to effectively guarantee care and assistance in cases of persistent need.
Austrian labour law promotes the integration of the disabled into working life and is aimed at making up for prevailing competitive disadvantages. The Employment of Disabled Persons Act (BEinstG, Federal Law Gazette 1970/22), for example, obliges employers with 25 or more employees to also engage disabled persons. This does not give individual handicapped persons a claim to employment, but employers who fail to conform have to pay a compensation tax to a public fund. The money so accumulated is primarily used to promote employment of the disabled. One way to do this is to establish sheltered workshops and to support a workplace layout adequate to the needs of the disabled person. The Employment of Disabled Persons Act also provides for special protection from dismissal in order to prevent handicapped persons from being ousted from the labour market. They may only be dismissed after the relevant committee of the provincial Office for the Disabled has given its consent and after consultation of the Office of the Provincial Government responsible for the execution of the relevant provincial law. Without its approval the dismissal has no legal effect.

DISCLAIMER: I have been working on this blog post for 90 minutes now, trying to get the fourth sample of a Guide to go below the other three. So I know this is not perfect and it's driving me nuts, but I really want you to be able to have this sneak peek, so I'm going to post this anyway.
We thought you may like to see some of the new designs Tami Brown, our Cambridge designer has come up with. She does such a good job of making them visually appealing whilst still have a professional look and feel to them, that retains something of the NHS about it, in a good way.
For those of you who don't know what the New Baby Guides are, here's the short version of what we usually tell people who are looking to advertise in them:
The New Baby Guides are published by Cambridge marketing and pr company, Weston Communications. One of our specialisms is in baby marketing, for both profit and not for profit organisations. We have a range of experience in the baby products market and marketing to families. We know our stuff. More than 104,000 New Baby Guides are printed annually, and go to pregnant women or new mothers at varying antenatal or postnatal stages, depending on each local NHS Maternity Unit. Marketing baby products is very sensitive area. Few businesses do it. Along with Bounty, we have the strictest guidelines we know of. All businesses have a local presence and are WHO and UNICEF baby friendly compliant. There are no major national brands. If editorial is accepted, it is generic rather than product/service led and has to be educational and for the benefit of the reader. Unlike other baby advertising, we have a strict policy on ratios for content to advert and every single advert is approved by each NHS Maternity Unit we work with.
Sample 1: This is one for Chelmsford, who like things to look classy and sleek
Sample 2: The East and North Hertfordshire New Baby Guide design was led by the layout, look and feel of the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Annual Report. The Communications team were keen to see it follow general branding guidelines and thought the finished result was fantastic. It's been so popular since then, that we are now working on a range of covers to develop this further. Sample 3, demonstrates this..
Sample 3:The Northampton New Baby Guide cover is developed specifically from the East and North Hertfordshire cover. It's felt to be very NHS orientated through the colouring and simple, with white lettering which reflects NHS branding guidelines.
Sample 4: The Luton and Dunstable edition of the New Baby Guide is representative of the most popular cover image of 2010. Heads of Midwifery, staff, lay groups and the general public all love this image. The baby looks straight at you, and is on a neutral background which allow the text to work neatly with it, rather than in contrast to it.
What do you think of these covers? What do they say to you?
We would be pleased to hear your thoughts on the covers. Do you like them? Would you open one of these Guides?
We appreciate your opinion on this as they are very much a work in progress.
The sales bit:
With their glossy covers and professional design, it's no wonder that we've got a waiting list of NHS Units wanting to work with us. If you are within the NHS and would like information on how we can work together, email firstname.lastname@example.com
If you would like to be considered as a potential advertiser in the New Baby Guides, contact email@example.com for more information and we'll pop a sample in the post.

RMB Asset Management International Ltd (RMB), a wholly owned subsidiary of the FirstRand Group (one of South Africa's largest financial services institutions), has engaged the IT consultancy and software solution services of Touchstone Group, to implement an integrated Infor FMS SunSystems procurement and finance system.
The new finance and accounting software will allow RMB to centralise its finance function to achieve stronger management information, greater visibility, increased flexibility and efficiency to the business while the procurement functionality will support centralised purchase ordering processes.
Jonathan Barnard, a Senior Accountant at RMB comments, "We currently have three offices across London and Kent that liaise on a regular basis with each other, as well as South Africa; this requires a significant amount of manual coordination to ensure administrative accuracy and efficiency. Having opened their third office in the West End in February 2007, the need to centralise the purchase ledger within the finance department was increasingly unavoidable. Infor FMS SunSystems allows us to control our processes in-house across our different businesses and offices thus maintaining our level of central control and visibility whilst increasing our opportunities to work flexibly."
RMB selected Touchstone Group following a competitive three-way pitch process on the basis of its expertise in the financial services industry and experience in implementing and supporting Infor SMS SunSystems, as well as its focus on flexibility. As Barnard explains, "It is very important that we are able to transfer all financial data across our international offices as and when it is needed; Touchstone Group recognised this and offered a solution that was tailored around our flexible needs, ensuring that we have a system which will allow us all the benefits we are looking for, at a highly cost effective price."
Barnard continues, "It was very clear to us from the outset that getting the technology and the administrative processes across the entire organisation correctly implemented would be key to ensure we continue to meet our customers' expectations on an international level. In addition to our experience in this sector, our relationship with Touchstone Group and through the implementation of the Infor FMS SunSystems' technology we have ensured that all of these expectations have been achieved."
Barnard concludes, "The implementation of any new product or solution is never entirely smooth, however Touchstone Group's understanding of our business objectives has assisted in moving the project forward at crucial times. Working with Touchstone Group has been a positive experience and we are enjoying real benefits since rolling out the entire solution in January 2007."
Adrian McNay, Group Board Director, Touchstone Group, adds, "We believe that our expertise and acute understanding of the financial sector and the new regulations arising within it, can fundamentally aid RMB's operations to deal with today's demands as well as its future requirements and business growth."

Max Weinberg's Jukebox

Prices begin at $25.00

Max Weinberg's Jukebox
Oct 26 , 2017 · McGLOHON THEATER at Spirit Square
Prices begin at $25.00
Presented by: MaxxMusic
Fresh off the hugely successful The River Tour 2016-2017 of Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band—where the group played 89 concerts nearly four hours long each night in 15 countries amassing $300,000,000 in ticket sales, Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Drummer Max Weinberg announces a new touring concept for the small venue—"Max Weinberg's Jukebox".
A truly interactive experience, Weinberg invites the audience to create in real time the set list he and his crack four piece group will play that night. Performing songs from the glory days of rock and roll your guests get to choose from a video menu of over 200 songs-- everything from the Beatles to the Stones to Bruce and The E Street Band's biggest hits—and hear the group play 'em the way they want to hear them played!
That's right—the crowd gets to yell out their choices and Max plays them! This unique approach is fun and satisfying.
How many times have you attended a show where you yearned to hear your favorite performer play your favorite song? With Max Weinberg's Jukebox your dream will be realized.
Weinberg, the driving rhythmic force propelling The E Street Band for 43 years, is also known to millions of fans for his 17 year stint as the bandleader and comedic foil to talk show host Conan O'Brien and is the only musician in history to make the leap from a starring role in one of the world's iconic rock groups to leading his eponymous band on NBC's "Late Night" and "The Tonight Show".
And if that wasn't enough Weinberg managed to do both gigs simultaneously from 1999-2009.
Throughout his 50 year professional career Weinberg has played with some of the biggest and most diverse names in music-—James Brown, Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, BB King, Tony Bennett, Ringo Starr, John Fogerty, Stevie Winwood, Sheryl Crow—even Isaac Hayes performing his legendary "Shaft" with a 30 piece orchestra Max conducted on the Late Night broadcast.
In 2009 Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band performed the halftime show at Super Bowl 43 to the largest audience ever recorded for that event—over 100,000,000 people.
Weinberg also has the distinction of being the drummer on the two biggest selling rock albums in history—Bruce Springsteen's "Born In The USA" and Meatloaf's "Bat Out Of Hell".

Thousands March in a Celebration of Gay Pride
By CLIFFORD J. LEVY
Published: June 28, 1993
With their fists raised in solidarity and their voices celebrating their pride, tens of thousands of gay men, lesbians and their supporters strolled and chanted their way down Fifth Avenue yesterday in a sprawling march that underscored the striking range of gay life in New York City.
Gay social workers, gay soccer players, gay gospel singers, gay Republicans, gay mothers, gay Harlemites, -- they all came together on a humid afternoon for the 24th annual march, which took on an added significance this year because of President Clinton's proposal to allow homosexuals to serve in the military. What Gay America Looks Like
"I feel so moved emotionally," Miriam Ben-Shalom, one of the grand marshals of the parade, said as she watched marchers surge down Fifth Avenue and spectators three-deep jostle for views on the sidewalks. "Look at all the people here. This is America. Do you want to see what gay America looks like? Look on this street."
Ms. Ben-Shalom and the other grand marshal, Perry Watkins, both became symbols of the contentious debate over homosexuals in the military when they fought the Government's ban in court. The two, now retired, were cheered as they led a contingent from the Lesbian and Gay Veterans that solemnly carried an enormous American flag down the route.
As in past years, the parade was a rowdy mingling of advocacy, outreach and dance party.
Groups that assist AIDS patients or gay teen-agers were often followed by towering floats that were a tribute to gay camp, blasting the ears with disco music and the eyes with outlandish decorations. The floats were sometimes filled with men who seemed to be competing to see who could wear the tightest skirts or the highest patent leather pumps or the thickest eye makeup.
"We always wear polyester floral print dresses, sensible shoes and earrings that pinch -- that's what keeps us angry," said Jon Winkleman, 26 years old, a member of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power who often takes part in abortion rights and AIDS protests in female clothing. "Boys dressed up as girls really bother them," he said, referring to conservative groups and government officials.
Through it all -- the fathers walking arm-in-arm with their lesbian daughters and the costumes straight out of Mardi Gras and the leather-clad lesbian motorcycle gangs -- there was a sense that this year gay people in New York City had attained at least some of the recognition and respect for which they have long fought.
"What makes this parade different is that we've reached a level of visibility," said Deborah Edel, 49, a social worker who is co-founder of the Lesbian Herstory Archive, which chronicles lesbian history.
She hesitated for a moment, as if she were recalling all the slights she had received because she is gay, and added a note of caution. "There is acceptance, but a lot of us also still realize how vulnerable we are," she said. "What this march is saying is that we cannot sit back complacently. We are not saying, 'Thank you very much for giving us crumbs.' "
Others also expressed anger toward the straight world.
"It's important that we be visible to our community, the African-American community, which claims that we don't exist, that we do not have any spirituality," said the Rev. Zachary Jones of the Unity Fellowship Church, a black, gay congregation. "We're here to prove otherwise." Policitians Show Support
The marchers were joined by a host of politicians who were eager to show their support for a constituency that has increasingly been flexing its electoral muscle. Mayor David N. Dinkins was generally cheered along the route, but his Republican-Liberal challenger, Rudolph W. Giuliani, was heckled a few times. Both men made veiled jabs at the other's support for gay causes.
"It's not unusual for me," Mr. Dinkins said about taking part in the parade. "I'm here every year."
Mr. Giuliani later seemed to imply that the Mayor's comments showed that Mr. Dinkins was a divisive force in the city. "I'm interested in healing, in reaching out to everyone," Mr. Giuliani said.
There were also scattered pockets of anti-gay demonstrators who shouted passages from the Bible at the marchers and held signs condemning homosexuality. The police reported no disturbances or arrests.
While organizers said they were pleased by the parade's success, they added that they were looking forward to next year's event, which will commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Stonewall riots in Greenwich Village, often considered the founding of the gay-rights movement. The next march is expected to draw gay people from around the world and end with a rally at the United Nations.
"This is saying that gay rights are human rights," Dennis Mack, 49, a lawyer, said of the 1994 march. "Stonewall has been a beacon for gay people around the world. This is the gay community getting together and saying that we are all rebelling, we are all one community."

For decades many incumbents have returned to Washington with no other purpose than (1) to do the bidding of very gracious, deep-pocketed lobbyists, (2) do as they are told by their party bosses and (3) to serve their own selfish, greedy and sensuous wants. This summer their child-like behavior brought our country to the brink of financial ruin which we may not be able to avoid much longer. With the 2-party system you and your elders have had very little choice for decades; the very poor choice of one party or the much worse choice of the other party. But now, thanks to Tim Cox, we don't have to settle for this impotent leadership any longer.
Tim devised a very simple plan a few years ago which he chose to call GOOOH (Get Out Of Our House); it's pronounced like the word "go." GOOOH "is a NON-PARTISAN plan to place 435 citizen representatives on the ballot in 2012, competing for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives." If Americans choose to apply the candidate selection plan of GOOOH, we can replace all 435 U S House of Representatives in November 2012.
Go here. Learn the details and join GOOOH.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Southeastern Conference released its preseason media poll for women's basketball on Tuesday, and Tennessee has been picked to finish third in the league in 2016-17.
Defending champ South Carolina claimed the top spot, followed by Mississippi State in second. Kentucky was just behind Tennessee in fourth place, followed by Florida, Texas A&M, Auburn, Missouri, Vanderbilt, Georgia, Arkansas, LSU, Alabama and Ole Miss, as voted by a select panel of both SEC and national media members.
Fifth-year head coach Holly Warlick returns four starters from last year's squad, which won six of its last eight to wind up 22-14 (8-8 SEC) with an appearance in the NCAA Elite Eight for the third time in the last four seasons. One of those players is 6-1 redshirt junior guard Diamond DeShields (14.3 ppg., 5.2 rpg., 2.3 apg. and 1.6 spg.), who was selected for the media's five-player preseason All-SEC team for the second year in a row.
UT's other returning starters are 6-6 redshirt junior center Mercedes Russell (9.9 ppg., 8.3 rpg., 66 blocks, 55% FG), 6-2 junior guard/forward Jaime Nared (8.3 ppg., 4.8 rpg.) and 5-11 senior point guard Jordan Reynolds (4.8 ppg., 4.0 rpg., 89 assts./55 TOs).
Returning players off the bench include 6-2 junior forward Kortney Dunbar (3.5 ppg., 1.4 rpg.), 5-9 junior guard Alexa Middleton (3.0 ppg., 1.2 rpg.) and 5-11 sophomore guard/forwardMeme Jackson (1.0 ppg., 0.6 rpg.).
Tennessee's top newcomer is Schaquilla Nunn, a 6-foot-3 forward who averaged a double-double of 11.2 points and 10.3 rebounds in her three seasons with Winthrop University before graduating and transferring to Tennessee.
The Lady Vols play their lone exhibition game on Nov. 7, welcoming Carson-Newman at 7 p.m. ET. Tennessee will tip off its 2016-17 campaign on the road on Nov. 11, playing at James Madison at 7 p.m.

Grief Plus Exhaustion: Lesson 1 in 10 Things I've Learned About Grief.
I'm not a professional counselor. I don't claim to be an expert in anything. But I know grief. I've learned a bit about grief through my own experiences. I've learned grieving takes an extraordinary amount of energy and therefore grief can make you tired. And when you're tired, a lot of thoughts can sneak into your mind. And so I know that after losing a loved one to death, feeling grief plus exhaustion may increase suicidal thoughts.
I'm sure you're wondering how I know all this. I was thirteen when my parents filed for divorce and shortly after that my Dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Living alone, due to the divorce, he endured major surgery all by himself, but I wouldn't say he ever really recovered. He hung on for more than a year, but cancer slowly took him. I was fifteen when he died.
After I graduated from high school, my brother, who was in the Marines, came home just in time for my eighteenth birthday. We had a grand time on my birthday—going dancing and riding motorcycles all night long. The next day he was riding his Harley and was hit by a drunk driver. He died within minutes.
Around the same time I lost two grandparents.
Yeah, I know grief.
What I know of grief due to the death of a loved one I learned through personal experience. After sorting through all that, I made a short list of ten things I've learned about grief.
Through my first ten posts on this blog, I'm planning to share with you those ten things I've learned about grief in the hope that it will help you and encourage you and lift you up. You see, I know that when bad things in life get you down, often you get a few extra kicks. Then it's easy to want to give up. That's when suicidal thoughts can begin to edge their way into our thinking.
But life isn't bad. Life is good. And if you know some of the tricks the bad things in life try to use to keep you down, then it's easier to not let the bad win. You can battle back—and find the will to do so even if you don't feel it now.
I will be sharing 10 Things About Grief with you at this blog, thinkingaboutsuicide.com. Here's the first thing I've learned:
#1: Grief takes a surprising amount of physical energy. Dealing with intense emotions can drain our strength. You may need more than the usual amount of rest for a while.
To lift you up, InTouch Ministries provides a list of "God's Promises" for those in Grief.
One way to battle back to the good side of life: get some rest. Remember everything looks darker when we're tired. That's why feeling grief plus exhaustion may increase suicidal thoughts.
Here's a video on YouTube that may be a comfort to you:

The Nurse and Health Care Worker Protection Act of 2013 (H.R. 2480) is the national SPHM bill introduced by John Conyers, Jr on June 25, 2013. If passed, the bill will direct the Secretary of Labor to issue an occupational safety and health standard to reduce injuries to patients, nurses, and all other health care workers by establishing a safe patient handling, mobility, and injury prevention standard, and for other purposes. The bill, crafted from the 2013 American Nurses Association SPHM Interprofessional National Standards is designed to decrease the potential for injury to health care personnel and patients, while reducing work-related health care costs and improving the safety of patient care delivery. The bill was introduced by John Conyers, Jr, and sent to committee June 25, 2013.
Since Texas passed the first state-wide SPHM legislation in 1995, a total of eleven states have enacted "safe patient handling" laws or promulgated rules/regulations: California, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Texas, and Washington, with a resolution from Hawaii. Of those, ten states require a comprehensive program in health care facilities (California, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Texas and Washington), in which there is established policy, guidelines for securing appropriate equipment and training, collection of data, and evaluation.

When Carlos Collazo retired for the second time he knew it was time to give back to the community. After more than 20 years in the Air Force he retired as a Senior Master Sergeant and then had a second career as an accountant at Savannah River Site for 21 more years.
As members of St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Church, Collazo and his wife Brenda, to whom he has been married 53 years, decided to concentrate their volunteerism at the church.
"I quit playing golf because it was taking too much of my time," said Collazo. "I wanted to do something more constructive."
Georgia's weather is fickle. Spring was cool and wet, and now summer is starting hot and wet. Both weather conditions provide their challenges. Gardeners must adapt to the changes in the weather.
High humidity and rainfall make a perfect environment for plant diseases, especially leaf spot. Most leaf spot in the landscape is not a real threat to the overall health of the plant, but be aware that conditions are favorable for it and be proactive.
Maintaining a green lawn in the heat of summer can be a vexing problem. However, experts agree that a lush, green lawn is still viable when care is taken.
Cutting grass too short or overwatering it can present their own sets of problems. For instance, it is advised that no more than the top third of the grass be removed when mowing it.
"By doing so, the lawn is kept cooler because less plant tissue is removed," explains an article on the Web site yardcare.com. "In fact, cool season grass types actually benefit in the heat of the summer by setting the blade higher."
On July 4, 1776, to recognize the momentous occasion of the independence of the newly formed union separate from the Mother Country, John and Abigail Adams consumed a celebratory meal of turtle soup. While firework displays have persisted over the centuries, the tradition of turtle soup has not. Americans ingested about 155 million hot dogs on Saturday.

During the annual gathering of rabbis of Judaism's liberal Reform movement this week in Monterey, Calif., Rabbi David Ellenson was a busy man -- mostly off the conference floor. A reporter caught up with him in his hotel room, between his taking a phone call and attending a meeting, both business related. Rabbi Ellenson said he had not had much time to participate in the gathering going on in the same hotel, the meeting of the Central Conference of American Rabbis.
But that should have been no surprise, as it had been less than a month since Rabbi Ellenson was appointed president of Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, which trains men and women for the Reform rabbinate. He was much in demand.
Still, his transition should be aided by the enthusiasm with which fellow rabbis have greeted his appointment and also by the fact that Rabbi Ellenson is not going to a new institution. He has been a professor at Hebrew Union, teaching Jewish religious thought, since 1979. In that time, he has been a prolific writer, the author of more than 150 scholarly articles and reviews, as well as four books.
It seemed natural then, that in the interview, the subject should turn to writing.
When he was studying for his doctoral degree at Columbia University in the mid-1970's, Rabbi Ellenson recalled, one of his professors, Arthur Hertzberg, remarked that if a person could not sum up his point in a sentence or a single paragraph, then that person probably did not really know what he wanted to say.
''I thought it was a wonderful pedagogic insight,'' Rabbi Ellenson said.
It is useful now, as he said he hopes his new position allows him to write and speak out at times on public issues where he thinks a liberal religious voice should be heard.Continue reading the main story
When he was in college in the late 1960's, he said, many prominent figures spoke from such a perspective, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. foremost among them. But that voice seems, at best, muted today.
''I think liberal religion has really surrendered speaking in the public square to groups more conservative in nature,'' Rabbi Ellenson said. ''Right-wing groups have filled the vacuum.''
The new college president grew up in an Orthodox family in Newport News, Va. He might well have become a lawyer, like his father, had not academic study changed his life. In his senior year at the College of William and Mary, he took classes in existentialism and in contemporary Christian thought. ''That year I was introduced to Sartre, Nietzsche, Blake, Tillich, Kierkegaard and others,'' he wrote in an autobiographical essay published in 1997. He went on to graduate study in religion at the University of Virginia, where he took a seminar on the sociology of religion, another crucial development in his intellectual life. It provided him, he wrote, ''with theories that allowed me to see what I regarded as simple truth -- religion is embedded in culture and cannot be understood apart from it.''
Rabbi Ellenson, who is married to a rabbi, Jacqueline Koch Ellenson, has written and lectured on thinkers from across the Jewish spectrum -- Orthodox, Reform, Conservative and Reconstructionist. He said he wanted to draw on such sources when he spoke on public issues. He mentioned, in passing, that he had been reading up on what Jewish tradition might say about stem cell research.
''My hope,'' he said, ''would be to use these kinds of sources to speak in an authentic Jewish way on these issues.''
Diversions for the Rabbis
The rabbis' meeting in Monterey had plenty of serious business, like the election of new officers for the conference and adoption of new guidelines on conversion to Judaism. But it was not all work for the 570 men and women attending.
Monday was given over to field trips. One group met with local farm workers. Another took an ecologically oriented tour of Monterey Bay.
And another group, about 100 in all, visited a nearby winery, Chateau Julien. As they lunched on its brick terrace, a winery employee rolled out an oak barrel. It would serve as a lecture podium for Fred Astren, a professor of medieval Jewish history and Near Eastern studies at San Francisco State University.
Over the next hour, Professor Astren, who once worked as a sommelier and wine cellar master in a San Francisco restaurant, gave a lecture that ranged from classical-era rabbinic commentary on issues related to food, to making kosher wine. His audience, seated in dazzling sunlight, took notes and asked questions. Later, the rabbis toured the winery.
Afterward, Rabbi Lisa Izes of Rochester, standing with two fellow Hebrew Union graduates of the class of 2000, Rabbi Rebecca Pomeranz Shinder of Haworth, N.J., and Rabbi David Widzer of Newton, Mass., said the lecture added meaning to what might otherwise have been a purely recreational event.
''We spend our lives trying to get people to put things in a Jewish context,'' Rabbi Izes said.
Rabbis tell their congregants, she added, ''everything you do can be touched by Judaism.''Continue reading the main story

Cheater In A Cheetah Tux? Breezy Was Flirtin' It Up At Elton John's Oscars Bash
Hey at least he left Karrueche at home right? Breezy just can't do isht without word getting out. Seems like he was under heavy watch at the Elton John Oscar's viewing party Sunday and some folks seem to think RihRih may not have liked what he was up to.
Via US Weekly reports:
Chris Brown didn't let Seth MacFarlane's joke about his controversial relationship with Rihanna stop him from having a good time Sunday night. The singer, 23, attended Elton John's AIDS Foundation 21st annual Academy Awards Viewing party at The City of West Hollywood Park without his on-again, off-again girlfriend.
An insider tells Us Weekly that Brown was "bombarded" by fans wanting to take pictures and he was more than happy to oblige. "He was loving it and saying yes to everybody," and insider tells Us. "He told a tall blonde woman who asked for a photo, 'You're gorgeous.'"
"Chris was smiling and extremely kind with everyone," an eyewitness adds of the "Don't Wake Me Up" crooner. "He looked really cheerful and flattered to have so many guests approaching him."
After chain-smoking near the bathroom, an insider tells Us Brown got even more lively when he headed over to the bar. "He was the life of the party" the eyewitness tells Us, noting that Brown was talking "non-stop" and "super-social" with other revelers. "He looked so happy to be getting such positive attention from guests."
Just last week, Brown was on a romantic vacation in Hawaii celebrating Rihanna's 25th birthday. When one fan asked the singer how his recent vacation was, he said, "Hawaii was great!"
Can this man live? SMH. These people are pressed to make a story out of anything. Then again, he probably WAS thrilled not to be treated like an ax murderer the way most of these Hollyweird folks be acting.

Before the After - Rescued Rockwell Kent Photograph Archive Shows Painting SubjectsHere's another important photograph archive that was rescued. This one is a collection of 31 albums of photos by artist Rockwell Kent. When his home burned down, many pieces of his art were lost, but he did save these albums. Fascinating to see the images before they were in his paintings.
The archive is being offered as one lot at Heritage Auctions as Lot #36125: Rockwell Kent. Rockwell Kent's Personal Photograph Archive of His Home at Asgaard, Excursions to Denmark, Greenland, Alaska, P... (Total: 1 Items)
"Rockwell Kent (1882-1971) was an adventurer, artist, illustrator, writer and political activist who, upon his death, the New York Times described as "a thoughtful, troublesome, profoundly independent, odd and kind man who made an imperishable contribution to the art of bookmaking in the United States."
Kent's life, travels, art and struggles have been well chronicled but this unique and intimate visual archive adds dimension to and "fleshes out the bones" of the story behind one of his most creative and important periods in the artist's career.
And, the fact that this extraordinary archive survives at all is nothing short of extraordinary. In 1969 Kent's house in the Adirondacks, Asgaard, was struck by lightning and the house along with irreplaceable works of his art, memorabilia of his travels, and library were destroyed including the negatives of these photographs.
Miraculously these photographs were saved by Kent himself, and they represent all of his photographic work.
It is nearly impossible to convey a sense of the scope of the archive but the images primarily deal with life at Asgaard, trips to Greenland, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and later years at Monhegan Island off the coast of Maine. In short, these images show up time and again in Kent's work."

All Night Long
I know that you won't believe this, but it happened years ago. I had a date with a waitress I worked with. We went back to my place for some "fun" and started to have sex a little after nine in the evening. We didn't stop until after four in the morning. We took a little break and started all over again. We ended up having sex on the carpet of the living room. She had a big brush burn on her back. When her friend saw it, they wanted to beat the guy up that did that to her. She said that it was also her fault and to leave me alone. We never got together again as she went to Alaska to work. Boy, do I miss the fun I had with her. She was really a beautiful woman.

If you are looking for the top door installers to custom fit new custom doors in Surrey, you have to take the time to compare local companies in the area. Whether you would like to hire door installers to work in the commercial sector, to do work in your home as a residential client, or would like to have new custom doors designed and fitted, you have to take the time to compare a few of the top local companies in the area. With several local installers, when you compare them, and compare the services they provide, you will not only find those who are going to design the best custom doors in Surrey for your home or for your business. Further, you are going to find those companies who are going to work with you in the design process, so as to ensure you find the ideal finish, detail, design, and custom finishes you would like to see, when the time comes to have the new doors fitted and installed on your home, or in a commercial setting which you would like to have the new doors installed on.
In hiring a contractor, make sure they specialize in either residential or in commercial work. In addition to this, the company that you hire should be fully certified, they should be bonded and licensed, and they should also be insured. All of these factors are not only going to ensure you are dealing with a reputable company, but also that they are going to fulfill their order when you choose to hire them to design new doors. If you are looking to have a custom door designed, fabricated, and fitted, you want to know the company that you are hiring, has a team of experts on staff, who can perform all of these services, as well. So, the more custom the design, the more specific the task is, and the more custom design work you would like to see when hiring fabricators and a team of design experts, the more credentials you are going to want that company to possess. Not only will this ensure they can perform all services you hire them to perform properly, it is also the only way to ensure you are dealing with reputable service provider, when having a new door designed, and eventually having the new door installed on the home or your commercial space.
Because custom doors are typically pricier, require more work, and are going to take some time to design, you want to make sure they are done by the very best local fabricators and design teams, and are installed by the top rated service techs. To ensure this is the case, these are a few of the factors to keep in mind when hiring local companies to do the design work. Not only will this allow you to hire the best, but also those who are qualified and have all required credentials to perform all services which you wish to hire them to perform for you.

For allegedly defaulting in paying their tenement rates to the government, the Katsina State Urban and Regional Planning Board (KURPB) has threatened to seal 150 Glo offices.
The threat was issued by KURPB's Secretary, Alhaji Abdulmumini Usman, on behalf of the general manager of board, Usman Nadada, on Wednesday after a visit to one of such sites operating in Katsina metropolis.
Abdulmumini Usman said the board at any moment, will use its powers to seal the 150 Glo sites where the telecom giant erected its masts across the state over non-payment of the rates.
See Also: Enugu State Government Orders Traders To Vacate All Public Roads
Tenement rates are taxes paid by landlords or occupiers of buildings or pieces of lands to the government as part of its Internally Generated Revenue.
Though the KURPB secretary did not disclose the amount involved, he noted that such taxes were part of the state government's sources of internally generated revenue which would not be neglected as it would also assist in improving the living conditions of the people through the provision of amenities.
He decried the firm's failure to respond to letters written to it by the board since February this year in respect of the outstanding payment.
Also See: These 33 Nigerian States Can't Pay Workers Salaries
Usman, who disclosed that other telecommunication companies operating in the state had paid their fees, said the board would not tolerate impunity from its residents.
Hear him; "We were not out to embarrass anybody, our concern is to apply the relevant laws to make sure that revenue accrual to the state are genuinely collected."

Abdulmumini Usman therefore advised other organisations with outstanding payments to the government to settle them in good time to avoid sanction.

what is the indefinite integral of ln^2(x) for R+ -> Rcan we then verify that integral(1 to 2) { ln^2(x) dx } = 2*ln^2(e/2)?
- print Print
- list Cite
First Part: Indefinite Integral
To do this, we'll need to integrate by parts:
`int f'(x)g(x) dx = f(x)g(x) - int f(x)g'(x) dx`
We'll let f'(x) = ln(x) and g(x) = ln(x). We end up with the following as a result:
f'(x) = ln(x), so f(x) = xln(x) - x (You can verify this by taking the derivative).
g(x) = ln(x), so g'(x) = `1/x`
Now, we can put our overall problem into the above integration by parts equation:
`int ln^2(x)dx = ln(x)(xln(x) - x) - int (xln(x) - x)*1/x dx`
`int ln^2(x) dx = xln^2(x) - xln(x) - int ln(x) - 1 dx`
Now, we need to take the antiderivative of ln(x) - 1, so we just recognize that, as when we were trying to differentiate by parts that int(ln(x)dx) will be xln(x) - x (Like when we were trying to find the f(x) for our integration by parts). We then add this to the integral of -1 to get this particular indefinite integral (don't forget your constant of integration!):
`int ln^2(x) dx = xln^2(x) - xln(x) - (xlnx - x - x + C)`
`int ln^2(x) dx = xln^2(x) - 2xln(x) + 2x - C`
Keep in mind that I can arbitrarily change the sign of C because it's just a constant of integration.
We can't simplify any more, so our indefinite integral is the following:
`xln^2(x) - 2xln(x) + 2x + C`
Evaluating the definite integral
Now, to evaluate the definite integral, we just put 2 into the above result and subtract what we get if we put 1 into the above result, seen below:
`2ln^2(2) - 2*2ln(2) + 2*2 + C - (1ln^2(1) - 2*1ln(1) + 2*1 + C)`
Recall, ln(1) = 0 because e^0 = 1. Now, we can hugely simplify by getting rid of any term containing ln(1).
`= 2ln^2(2) - 4ln(2) + 4 + C - 2 - C`
`= 2ln^2(2) - 4ln(2) + 2`
Now we distribute out a "2":
`= 2(ln^2(2) - 2ln(2) + 1)`
Now, we will add some terms. Because ln(e) = 1, we can multiply everything by ln(e) as often as we wish! So, we'll multiply the 2ln(2) term by ln(e), and we'll multiply the 1 term by ln(e) twice! This gives us the following:
`= 2(ln^2(2) - 2ln(e)ln(2) + ln^2(e))`
At this point, you might be able to see that the above equation can be factored because it is a perfect square trinomial:
`= 2(ln(e) - ln(2))^2`
We now use logarithm rules (log(a) - log(b) = log(a/b)) to get the desired result, and we're done!
`=2(ln(e/2))^2 = 2ln^2(e/2)`
