NLP Anchoring
NLP Anchoring and Anchoring in NLP and Hypnosis - NLP Chat Transcript
IRC Chat Pages [ Back to Chat Index Page ]
IRC Chat Log, January 20, 1998
JonathanA | Hi folks, welcome to the chat! Let's start from the outset with a little calibration: Anyone here not know what Anchoring is? |
galamud | I have the vaguest idea |
Dan_26 | Hmmm, does the name Pavlov ring a bell? |
NLP-Anchor | It's the thing on my boat right? See my point? (holding finger up) |
JonathanA | A set of responses from the past can be brought back into the present circumstances with the re-introduction of a certain stimulus or stimuli... that were present at the time the original state/responses were occurring. So getting the jargon out of the way.... if someone's happy at some time, and someone else present at the time says "Hallelujah!" in a certain tone, & volume, etc... later at another time, that person saying "Hallelujah" the same way can bring back feelings or other elements, to varying degrees... of the original state/situation. So the intention behind anchoring is to re-introduce previously accessed situations/states/emotions/thoughts/pictures. This helps us condition other people's behavior, helps us to change minds more effectively, and more. |
Dan_26 | One could argue that every word in language is an anchor of some type since a person must access previous understanding to understand language, though it's often very, very fast and often mostly unconscious. |
JonathanA | Certainly... we're ALL anchoring all the time; most of us are doing it naturally without thinking about it, and doing it far less effectively than we could! By using and practicing NLP Anchoring, we learn how to attach various behavioral stimuli as triggers to various cognitive or emotional responses. |
galamud | Ah, so we act the same in similar situations if we know that it works, so we keep ourselves in a comfortable loop. |
Dan_26 | Or not! |
NLP-Anchor | And there is know such thing as hypnosis! :) |
JonathanA | We anchor states naturally with gestures... but often we do similar gestures as people go through different states, so we're frequently anchoring states automatically in other people, and then, of course, collapsing those anchors... |
TCX | Give an example of collapsing an anchor |
JonathanA | Let's say you're easing into a comfortable state for whatever reason, and I do a particular gesture to anchor some access to the state. |
TCX | I'm with you |
JonathanA | Which means, theoretically, based on the accuracy & uniqueness of the NLP anchors, along with the relative intensity of the state anchored, that by doing the same gesture later, you'll get comfortable again! |
Dan_26 | So we have the "comfort" anchor set... |
JonathanA | However! If you're in a powerfully crazed state later and I do the same gesture, if I for whatever reason didn't effectively re-induce the comfy state, then I've either collapsed the effectiveness of the anchor (or it wasn't anchored well to begin with). |
galamud | Oh, so, collapsed just means that it's no longer working? |
JonathanA | Yep! Or, stacked together with something that neutralizes or flatlines it. Collapsing can be accomplished two ways. |
galamud | Oh. And these two emotions conflict with each other. |
Dan_26 | I liked stacked a little better, realizing that the strongest emotion/state will be the one that prevails. |
JonathanA | (1) Excessive Firing of the anchor leads to lack of effectiveness |
NLP-Anchor | No, A COLLAPSE MEANS THAT TWO emotions are interegrated into one; a collapse can go either way depending on the intensity of the +/- anchors |
Dan_26 | or the combination of the two produces conflict, as galamud suggested |
JonathanA | (2) collapsing of two or more into one, causing a combination of states which isn't as intense as each one but combines elements of both (of course, you can intensify the combo easily!) |
TCX | gotcha |
galamud | so you're saying that a collapse can either intensify or diminish the effects, right? |
JonathanA | in the case of (1), typically its a slow collapse |
NLP-Anchor | YES |
JonathanA | In the case of (2) it can be very RAPID!!! |
NLP-Anchor | SHALL WE DO AN EXAMPLE : ? |
AtomicCat | Could you give an example of the second? |
galamud | SURE! =) |
NLP-Anchor | Jon, may I have the line? |
JonathanA | Please! Go ahead! Phoenix will give an example. |
NLP-Anchor | OK, I'll write the script then you all follow. Reading and doing doesn't work as well as one then the other here |
JonathanA | But before he does... ;) Let me suggest something for the group! We're coming out of a definition phase here... and going into some brief examples. After these examples lets chat specifically about INTENTIONS for anchoring. Situations and usefulness of anchoring! Then, we'll give some examples and have a short OPEN discussion (brief unstructured), and then we'll tie that up and fold it into a few social experiments ;) GO PHOENIX! |
TCX | Yes. On to the main event |
NLP-Anchor | 1. Think of something that you want to change (some small negative feeling). When you have one squeeze your left hand into a fist 2. Change your state IE: stand up, dance, etc. 3. Think of a feeling and process you want to have IE feriouslly, motivated and balanced. When you get the feeling 2x it and 2x it again and then right before the peak of the most intense state squeeze your right hand into a fist 4. Break your state. |
NLP-Anchor | 5. ready ? |
NLP-Anchor | 5. NOW, sitting there, create a blank spot in-mind, void of sound (play white noise if you must have a internal dialog), white or black background and void of sensation (as much as possible) 6. THEN make both hands into the same fists as before at the same time until FULL integration occurs internally. Basically when what ever happens in the K rep sys rebalances 7. Finally let go of the left fist first and then the right. DO the process until the desire change or direction is achieved and future pace in all rep sys 1 day/ 1 week/ 1 month/ 1yr etc. etc and bring all the information back to the present going forward. That is a wrap! |
JonathanA | OK, Thats a GREAT exercise to learn how to collapse two anchors into ONE, And then to practice having it available to you in future situations... which makes it more likely to be available to you then, when those situations occur! |
Questor_ | Why is the blank spot/void necessary? |
NLP-Anchor | It is VITALLY IMPORTANT TO PRACTICE IN ALL 4 REPS SYSTEMS |
JonathanA | All 4? ;) |
galamud | Can you review what the 4 reps systems are? |
JonathanA | 5 or 3? |
galamud | I'm very new to all this |
JonathanA | Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic (feelings & emotions), Gustatory (taste), Olfactory (Smell) |
galamud | Hey, that's 5 =) |
NLP-Anchor | QUEST: I have found this most useful as a calibration point. Easier to go to extremes from the center than from one end |
Dan_26 | One note: I find for me, achieving these states and anchoring them is much more effective when the state is produced through associated recall (see through your eyes, feel what you felt, hear with your ears, etc.) |
JonathanA | Definitely true, Dan |
NLP-Anchor | I use the 4 tuple that has g/o/k as the same K |
JonathanA | Most people use 3 very heavily (V, A, & K) |
Juba | This sort of reminds me of the equalizer tape |
NLP-Anchor | I use it as V/ A/ K/ Internal dialog |
JonathanA | But practically all of us use all of them some of the time! ahhh but Internal Dialog is marked Ai or Ad(digital) |
galamud | well, it's kind of hard to imagine a taste if you're not thinking of food |
JonathanA | both Phoenix and my statements are right, and both are wrong ;) |
Questor_ | Meta: Thats interesting... never thought of that before... |
JonathanA | point being, however its MOST useful for you... use that representation |
NLP-Anchor | THE IMPORTANT ITEM IS TO DO THE CHANGE IN ALL SYSTEMS SO YOU GET A WHOLE NERVOUS SYSTEM AND MULTILEVEL NEURAL RESPONSE. |
JonathanA | Yes agreed! |
NLP-Anchor | Jon, I'm using RB old model from Patterns I and II |
JonathanA | Now, we've defined anchoring & other terms, we've given an example of how to anchor something and how to collapse anchors together |
NLP-Anchor | I have found that Ai and Ae go to different sections of the brain and that is the reason I use the 4tuple in the way I do |
JonathanA | True. Just wires in differently for different people, though, as well... |
NLP-Anchor | Now back to ANCHORING !!! |
JonathanA | Yes. So .... Let's talk about intention. Which goes to Context. Always the semantic value of any specific behavior should be evaluated based on the context in which it applies. |
NLP-Anchor | Getting everything one desires ??? ALWAYS ??? |
JonathanA | To translate that, any behavior is more or less valuable based on its contextual evaluation. ;) |
NLP-Anchor | Should ??? |
JonathanA | alright, Phoenix is pointing out my intentional Meta-Model Violations ;) now "Getting everything one desires ;)" seems like a reasonably high-level generality worth pursuing... |
NLP-Anchor | Anyone have a bigger chunk size we can pursue ??? |
galamud | hmmmm, already accomplished that! |
JonathanA | oh did you, Galamud? |
Dan_26 | while bearing in mind personal ecological issues |
JonathanA | Everything you desired? |
galamud | I'm not sure...I'm pretty happy right now |
JonathanA | what about everything you desire FOR other people? I mean, if you've accomplished everything in life for yourself, how about helping OTHERS achieve their desired goals? Thats a marvelous thing, galamud! |
galamud | yeah, it's a great thing! but...okay, fine, one problem left. |
Dan_26 | and i'm wondering what it would be like if you could be even more happier right now? what would you have to learn, to experience, to share? |
JonathanA | ? |
galamud | okay, I have a problem talking to one particular girl. just one, but of course she's the one I want to actually date. |
JonathanA | OK. |
PhilAlex | Is there any way to accelerate/increase an anchor? |
JonathanA | Sure, Phil, thats called a ZIP anchor! Or a sliding Anchor. |
NLP-Anchor | Pretty happy is like fine AND you know what that means :) |
JonathanA | Let me explain that one.... |
NLP-Anchor | OR stacking anchors |
JonathanA | right |
Dan_26 | can we briefly touch on zip anchors while we're on the topic? |
JonathanA | A zip/sliding anchor is when one point along a finger, or along an arm, or leg.... becomes a representation of the present state, and somewhere else on the hand or arm or leg becomes a representation for TWICE as strong a feeling... and the slow deliberate movement from point A to point B is enough to cause the person to increase their state... (suggestion is very powerful...) Like a DIMMER switch! The way I go into describing it is as follows. Once I induce a certain state through a story or a sequence of questions... I anchor the state, and then I say, and you know something, I know something about your arm/leg that you may not know. If this spot represents how you feel now... THIS spot up here represents DOUBLE the feeling. Can you imagine that? And as I .... [and begin to slide your touch-point up the arm/hand/leg]... move my hand up this way.... your response gets much more intense, doesn't it! And they go, YEAH! WOW! OMIGOD, HOW DID YOU DO THAT! ;) |
TCX | Depends on which way on the leg you are moving :-) |
Questor_ | Jonathan: I like to just turn up the driver submodalities... |
JonathanA | thaaaaaat's right TCX! That works too, Questor, and it works REALLY well... ;) |
TCX | So, to fire this anchor... |
Questor_ | I also think it is worth mentioning that you can set sliding anchors in the auditory rep system using volume or tonality. |
JonathanA | You just run your finger from point A to point B again! |
TCX | Do you have to do the slide or just touch the last spot? |
JonathanA | Making a sound effect as you set and then fire the anchor helps too! |
TCX | k |
Dan_26 | questor, by driver submodalities, you mean such things as image size, vividness, volume, intensity, etc. ? |
JonathanA | Either TCX, but the slide is anchored to the increase... so you can keep increasing the state by doing the slide over & over & over again... |
Grendal_ | Now...sitting a zip anchor can be done by increasing the volume of your voice, right? |
JonathanA | but be careful, depending on the context the response can freak people out a little ;) |
Questor_ | Dan: Yes, but by driver I mean the one that is most powerful cause it drags other submodalities along with it automatically. |
TCX, Dan_26 | gotcha |
JonathanA | I would do that too, Grendal ;) YES Q, very important qualification. So, intentions. |
Grendal_ | ohh would you now..let me ask you this then...if I may...what are the benefits of setting an anchor in somes primary rep. system (ie Visual, Audio, K )? |
JonathanA | The most important INTENTION for anchoring, in my opinion, is, when you find someone in a less than glorious state... you can break their state, induce a powerfully amazing state and anchor it... then bring that state back whenever they're in that or another less than wonderful state. So you get to become MASTER or MISTRESS of positive moods! People will naturally be drawn to other people who "make" other people feel WONDERFUL about themselves! |
Dan_26 | excellent lead into intentions grendal! |
Grendal_ | grinz.. |
galamud | okay, but how do you induce the powerfully amazing state? =) |
belaflek | description |
NLP-Anchor | grendal: |
Grendal_ | galamud: the steps needed to do that, in my understanding, vary depending on the "type" of person that said person is (primary rep. system) |
galamud | how can you do that without appearing awkward? |
NLP-Anchor | There is a big diff in anchoring primary, secondary and least preferred. The diff is "How much of there conscious brain do you want included"... |
Grendal_ | care to expand a little, for me and anyone else? |
NLP-Anchor | If you have someone with a primary of V then doing an anchor in V maybe obvious since that is there most excised sys, BUT , say if their least preferred is A an anchor in the A rep sys will go more into their unconscious and therefore be less likely to be contaminated by say "doubt" of some others less then beneficial state |
Grendal_ | galamud: a state is induced by diffrent means... To a V person, maybe you show them something....or to a K person maybe you make them build a certain feeling/picture inside their mind.. |
Dan_26 | one challenge i perceive is getting in rapport with someone who is engulfed in a "negative" emotion enough to allow this process to occur |
Grendal_ | NLP-Anchor: Ahhh...I see that you mean...now, your first statement...makes sense...to me :> |
JonathanA | NLP-Anchor -- can you explain what the implications are of the different answers to "how much of their conscious brain do you want included" |
Dan_26 | meta. . . such as whistling a happy tune around someone who is pissed and primarily visual? |
NLP-Anchor | yes. |
Dan_26 | being conscious of their anchor with the tune may help, i suppose |
NLP-Anchor | The most important is what effect do you want. Do you want to train IE ah ha thats what I'm doing. OR influence covertly Ie I don't know what happened, but it just seemed right. It really comes down to "Do I want them to participate or do I want them to have it "done" to them. OK! With that Who has QUESTIONS AND CLARIFICATIONS ??? |
galamud | yeah. sorry to obsess about this, but can you give an example of a good way to induce a state in someone else? |
NLP-Anchor | galamud:... |
Dan_26 | galamud, when was the last time you experienced overwhelmingly intense pleasure? |
jaba | Questions? |
galamud | new years, I suppose |
NLP-Anchor | I'm in a room a look over at you. you catch me looking at you. As you look at me my eye's brighten my lips curl up into a very nice smile and my face relaxes. What do you feel ? |
Dan_26 | got it? BOOM, there's a state ready to be anchored :) (although it doesn't sound convincing) |
NLP-Anchor | hold on everyone. one at a time |
glen_ster | galamud: ask open ended questions regarding the state and or describe the state as accurately as possible |
galamud | you know, I'm male, right? |
NLP-Anchor | Of course. Are you saying you have no friends as men and that all men when you meet them sneer at you |
galamud | Meta: no, I'm just making sure this isn't going anywhere sexual! |
NLP-Anchor | I'm trying to point out that "most" times all it takes is looking at some one and smiling and you have "induced" a state, And generally it is a pleasant one |
Dan_26 | Do not worry galamud, i just didn't want you to remember a time you were pissed, but I guess that's too late, lol |
NLP-Anchor | Some of NLP is a little tricky to do over IRC so bear with me :) |
galamud | Hey, I'm not pissed! I'm flattered! I mean, er... =) |
NLP-Anchor | Good, now anchor that state...to your checkbook :] |
JonathanA | HAH! LOL |
Questor_ | I'd like to point something out that nobody has really mentioned yet... |
Dan_26 | I think we are all constantly going in and out of states, it's just becoming aware of those states and what external influences we allow to effect them |
JonathanA | Buy and Buy, as you go buy these ideas in your thinking {grin} -- you gotta LISTEN for these patterns |
NLP-Anchor | Remember NLP is easy, there is just many ways. There are only two maps to nlp according to both founders |
Dan_26 | In and out of different states, that is |
Questor_ | As I see it there are 3 key elements to a good anchor... |
glen_ster | I have an example. I met a girl really upset about a fight she had with her mom. I asked her if she went to the local fair this summer and road the new roller coaster. I then asked her what it was like. I helped her describe the feelings and boom, she was happy again. |
galamud | Ah, that's what I wanted. thanks glen! |
NLP-Anchor | Dan_26: true and some are longer than others. Think cycle of the body |
JonathanA | Yes Q? |
NLP-Anchor | That's more a re-frame, but their are components that would be considered anchoring |
Questor_ | 1) Timing, 2) An intense state (the more intense the better), 3) a UNIQUE stimuli for the anchor... I think you need to be sure it is something that they don't experience a lot, for obvious reasons, it should be something out of the ordinary. |
JonathanA | Something you can reproduce with ACCURACY, and EASE. ;) |
NLP-Anchor | Q YES, YES, YES and the stimuli is most effective if the anchor is UNIQUE AND MULTI REP SYS |
Questor_ | Nobody mentioned that it needs to be unique. |
JonathanA | Someone just did. ;) lol! OK this is all great information... |
NLP-Anchor | ...TO TANGENT: there are simple and then multi-reframes. But, that is another topic |
Dan_26 | good example glen. . . then anchor that pleasant state, and when she returns to the unpleasant one (talking about her mom), I'd try to fire off that state after saying "but there must be something positive you can gain from this" |
JonathanA | And I'm enjoying playing a more backseat role tonight because EVERYONE does this to some degree... and while Trainers use anchoring in very sophisticated sequences, at times... thats beyond the scope of this chat... so I'm really interested in learning from all of you as you share things you've done in your past and relate that to the frameworks for anchoring that we've discussed here -- which are optimal anchoring strategies. Now one interesting thing about anchoring is that there's been a lot of work done by all sorts of people on the SYNTAX of anchoring.... like, what MAKES an anchor effective... |
Dan_26 | jonathan, do you feel that if a trainer walks off stage during a training for whatever reason, or if someone else unexpectedly comes on stage, it destroys the anchors set by the trainer? |
Questor_ | Jonathan: Could you talk about chaining anchors? |
JonathanA | what makes one anchor more effective than others...? |
NLP-Anchor | I have a UNIQUE answer to that ques. |
Dan_26 | timing in relation to the intensity of the state and duration of the anchor is an influence, i believe |
NLP-Anchor | Dan_26 depends on the way the anchoring is done |
JonathanA | Questor -- I'd prefer to wait on that topic until another chat/time |
Questor_ | np |
NLP-Anchor | Dan_26 TIMING i the most important POINT even more important than uniqueness or rep sys |
Dan_26 | meta: thanks, the answer i anticipated :) |
JonathanA | Chaining states and chaining anchors are relatively simple concepts, but to teach someone to do it right involves a LOT of information, a lot of practice, and incredible precision and timing. Thats what you pay to learn REALLY EFFECTIVELY by attending a Trainer's Training... although my Automatic Yes CDs are an incredibly good first step. My personal opinion on it is that chaining anchors is VERY POWERFUL stuff, and if you (or the others present) haven't attended multiple trainings as part of the process of learning responsibility of using these skills, then, mastery with chaining states/anchors is a questionable skill in untrained hands. Does that make sense to people why I'd prefer to not go there in this environment? |
TCX, jaba, Grendal_ | y |
Dan_26 | understood Jonathan. . . unfortunately, many people use them unconsciously with devastating results |
JonathanA | I agree -- but in this forum I'd just be adding fuel to that fire. |
Dan_26 | so go to a training! :) |
JonathanA | In a training room, I get to do the obligatory "ecology/responsibility" chat/check. ;) |
NLP-Anchor | GO to TWO TRAININGS Richards to get it, Dilts to understand what you got. |
jaba | ready for another question? |
JonathanA | Not that I don't want you to ATTEND TRAININGS WITH ME OR OTHERS so that you can GET THESE SKILLS, make them your own, and do something wonderful with all of them, or anything... |
Questor_ | That's fine jonathan... |
NLP-Anchor | Who ? READY ! ? |
TCX | hahaha |
galamud | MUST ATTEND TRAININGS, MUST ATTAIN SKILLS, MUST ORDER INFORMATION |
galamud | explodes |
JonathanA | I personally recommend the reverse ORDER from Phoenix -- everyone has their preferences. "It was better than Cats" |
NLP-Anchor | YES! MASTER, must evolve brain. hmmm brain GOOOOOD!!! |
galamud | hehe |
Grendal_ | guys...I must go...Thanks everyone for you input...this is a great learning tool....Jonathan, great job starting this :> Everyone else...great talking to you all...sorry I can't stay...bye.... |
Questor_ | Hehehe... |
galamud | "I will see it over and over again!" |
Questor_ | You saw that too Jonathan??? |
Dan_26 | ah, just let that sink into your unconscious, it'll surface when the time is right now :) |
NLP-Anchor | Jon: yes but if you go to dilts then you generally attempt to unpack Richard which missed the installations |
JonathanA | ;) Questor -- it was a great SNL commercial and its practically an NLP Seminar Catch-Phrase ;) |
galamud | It will surface when the phone lines open up =) |
Questor_ | Hehe... yeah, I saw it on SNL. |
Dan_26 | Ah, I remember that one! I loved it. It was better than cats. I'm going to see it again and again," Apparently, it worked on me :) |
JonathanA | OK, Lets recap where we are, & where we're going. OK guys, go to Richard first, I concur... ;) Alrighty.... We've covered some real examples... we've even addressed ecology issues with more advanced anchoring skills and directions... |
galamud | And more importantly, we all had lots of fun doing it! *applause* =) |
JonathanA | I'm curious if anyone wants to hit the "hot seat"... and present another circumstance in which they would like to use Anchoring somehow to influence someone's behavior or state? |
TCX | I'll step up to the hot seat. |
JonathanA | Cool, TCX. ALright. Whats the deal? |
TCX | In one of my classes there is a desirable babe. She zooms into class just in time as not to be late. At the end of class she is gone like a sidewinder from the underwing of a F-16. During class there is no time to talk. How would I install an anchor for..ahhh- you know? pleasurable states linking to me, etc.. Any other further details you need? |
Dan_26 | Anchoring can be used in conjunction with timelines to achieve great results. |
JonathanA | Well, possibly TCX... Let's see you have almost no time to talk to her. How many free seats are there in class? Can you arrange to have her sitting next to you? |
TCX | Yes. |
Dan_26 | Perhaps sit next to the door, so you can follow her out and talk with her then? |
TCX | You ever seen a sidewinder launch?? |
JonathanA | OK, so you CAN sit next to her.... that improves things... Have you tried mirroring? Mirroring breathing rate, blink rate... gestures... body postures... head tilt... mouth position... voice tone... volume... voice RATE |
Tiger_ | Hey, I haven't yet mastered this Jonathan... any pointers? |
galamud | I have a similar problem. But I actually do sit next to her at the moment =) |
TCX | Some, with little success. I am only able to sit to her side and I think she has tunnel vision |
JonathanA | She may have tunnel vision but if you're breathing at the same rate I guarantee you her UNCONSCIOUS is gonna KNOW it. |
dbarron | It's true. never underestimate the power of the Un-C |
Dan_26 | TCX. . . perhaps you could answer a question in class that would lead the entire class into the state you wish to get her into, any chance it's an English Lit class? :) |
JonathanA | The other thing, and this ain't NLP, is bring a couple of REALLY cool books with you to the class, like, "MetaPhysics" or "Hypnosis" or "Astrology" ;) And just stack the books there on the table during class as something to look at before class and then during the boring parts! That'll get her interest up! And. When she's laughing, I'd ANCHOR that state with a particular smile, or head tilt. |
Questor_ | "Handwriting analysis" |
galamud | in a chemistry class, I suppose you could start talking about the feelings that SP bonds induce in you =) |
TCX | Dan, I'll give it a try. The class is very interactive |
Dan_26 | galamud. . . " and the attraction between these two electrons is so intense, so profound, that they are instantly drawn to each other in a powerful and mysterious manner" |
TCX | In mirroring, how long generally does it take to achive rapport? |
galamud | dan, that's okay, but electrons repel =) |
JonathanA | Varies on the person |
TCX | Good Jon, I will definitely try that! |
Dan_26 | oops, well, you get the general idea :) |
JonathanA | Varies on the person's focus! |
galamud | now if you say "the Na+ ion and the Cl- ion, that would work! |
TCX | Cutting down on my salt! |
Dan_26 | of course, a salty taste may have other implications, but we won't go there |
galamud | hahaha |
TCX | mmmmm |
Dan_26 | and you could anchor those ions (point to self for one, then point towards her for the other :) |
TCX | k |
JonathanA | I'll give you an example. If I'm really ON with my mirroring, I can get real rapport in 10-15 seconds. Sometimes it takes a few minutes or even longer. |
TCX | Whooosh |
JonathanA | With a group of 10 people, it takes me anywhere from about 1 minute, to about 10 minutes. |
Dan_26 | model what you do in those 10-15 seconds Jonathan, if you can on irc :) |
JonathanA | I did, up there.... "page-up" "page-up" "page-up" ;) |
galamud | the...SODIUM *point to self* is attracted to the CHLORINE *point to her* so much that they immediately come together and BOND. *smile* |
Dan_26 | then collapse those anchors galamud :) |
galamud | the BONDING occurs TONIGHT at MY PLACE. |
NLP-Anchor | there is a more powerful wasy...but, nah no one would be interested |
JonathanA | Well... instead of PACE PACE PACE PACE lead... why not just BE OUTRAGIOUS... and then LEAD LEAD LEAD (check for rapport, PACE if necessary, then) LEAD ON!!!! That works too! |
Dan_26 | Jonathan. . . alluding to confusion-rapport? |
JonathanA | no just, BREAK STATE, FOLLOW ME ;) If I'm dynamic enough, people just go along with it often enough... make any sense? |
NLP-Anchor | WHY NOT PRODUCE PHEROMONES and turn her into a lust-babe |
Questor_ | Jonathan: You gotta be quick don't you? |
JonathanA | Tony Robbins can pace your world in almost no time at all (with the best of them, so I'm told), but do you think he paces ANYONE the moment he comes out on stage? Tony runs out on stage like an ANIMAL and gets EVERYONE JUICED in 1 minute. |
Questor_ | Meta: Does Bandler still use that demo? |
Dan_26 | makes sense Jonathan. . . I perceive an underlying use of confusion in that approach though (breaking state; halting a program) |
JonathanA | Questor sometimes quickness works... sometimes its rushing things. |
NLP-Anchor | ques: yes and better |
TCX | Gotta be somewhat subtle in a structured environment. |
Questor_ | meta: such as? |
JonathanA | I would suggest that probably some clients would require a gentler approach, for various reasons. |
Questor_ | Jonathan: I mean... You gotta be quick once you break the state... |
JonathanA | Do "What Works"(tm) - {Trademarked by Phoenix}. Yes Q. |
NLP-Anchor | "What Works"(tm) |
JonathanA | K guys, I think we're winding down here. |
NLP-Anchor | remember "Yesterday is different then Tomorrow" :] |
Dan_26 | another excellent discussion, thanks everyone |
TCX | Tks for the hot seat. |
JonathanA | Largely I think we covered a lot of ground and examples, then kind of drizzled down -- partly due to me -- I'm tired from a long day! |
jaba | How do you keep track of all the anchors? I was practicing on a HB and anchored so many states (9 or 10).... |
JonathanA | I think we ought to do another on specific Anchoring techniques and types of anchors... |
jaba | that I lost track of them. Do you organize types of anchors to parts of their .... |
JonathanA | as in what gestures, words, touches, sounds, etc.... would be useful! |
NLP-Anchor | Their some biology to anchoring to dealing with nervous system density |
JonathanA | Yes -- accuracy is more important where there are greater concentrations of nerve endings! |
NLP-Anchor | If any of you havnt read the "ROOTS OF NLP" do it ! your life depends on it |
JonathanA | Alrighty boyZ (I think we're all boyz tonight) |
NLP-Anchor | ok not your life, BUT there is no better refence to NLP and how and where the body-mind intergration occurs on the neutral level |
glen_ster | Gatto goooo, thanks Jonathan for the time tonight!! |
JonathanA | THANKS AGAIN FOR COMING AND PARTICIPATING -- its YOU who make this what it is.... |
Dan_26 | Can't wait for the next one :) |
NLP-Anchor | You all have a better life then you allow yourselves |
Tiger_ | Hey Jonathan my question? |
galamud | Thank you muy mucho! |
JonathanA | Tiger go for it! |
Tiger_ | Now? |
TCX | Tks Jonathan. Good learning experience. |
galamud | I'm cured! =) |
JonathanA | Cool TCX! ;) OH!!!!! One last thing. |
NLP-Anchor | Gal: YOU WERE ALL WAYS FIXED |
Tiger_ | Here goes --- Its be brief |
galamud | Oh, I knew that =) |
NLP-Anchor | Then 2x it 5x it 10x it and GO TO deeper SLEEP :] |
Tiger_ | My company is possibly downsizing and I think I am going to get the boot because I am the new kid on the block. So I am applying to all these other Wall Street firms looking for other opportunities. (while at the same time trying to make ends meet). My applying involves -- calling these pros on the Street and basically asking them for an interview/job or a dollar? |
JonathanA | Alright.... whats your question though? |
Tiger_ | My question is how do I use NLP to get past the screeners (secretaries -- pain in the butt) and then once I get to the decision maker any NLP I can use? Also suppose I get the interview then how do I convince the guy that I am the best dude in the world? Also once I tell the secretary it is regarding a job, off I get transferred to personnel -- ie nowhere! |
JonathanA | You want this in a 2-minute answer? ;) |
TCX | Condensed, just add water |
Tiger_ | Whoops! Haha, well give me how much you can |
Dan_26 | Tiger, if you haven't read Persuasion Engineering, do it, and if you've read it, read it again :) |
JonathanA | The fast answer is, VISUALIZE yourself as 40' tall, laid-back and bulletproof... Read "Persuasion Engineering", AGAIN VISUALIZE yourself as 40' tall, laid-back and bulletproof, then make your cold call!!! Ha! Seriously. Examine your presuppositions. Change them to be appropriate and powerful. |
galamud | That's not a bad idea, actually! Hell, that could help in lots of situations! |
Tiger_ | what do you mean presuppositions? |
JonathanA | You presuppose they're a pain in the ass. Why not presuppose they're REALLY there to HELP YOU ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS. Also Invite instead of suggest. |
TCX | Or presuppose they're there to help you get the job. |
Tiger_ | What do you mean by invite instead of suggest in this situation? |
JonathanA | I invite you to consider just how important it is to route certain people through to certain inhouse parties, and what is it in the importance of some calls... that makes some employees there annoyed by not hearing from some people? ASAP? |
Dan_26 | "When you imagine your ideal employee, the person you know is right for this job (point to self), I'm wondering what you see" |
JonathanA | Good Dan! (when you're already in the interview) |
Dan_26 | Elicit values in an employee, link to you, and throw their words back at them. Essentially, find out what they want, then give it to them. Tiger, another approach, talk to people who have done what you want to do and model them, find out what they did, how they did it, etc. If you're not getting what you want try something ANYTHING different. |
galamud | You're saying that the ideal employee is 40 feet tall? =) |
Dan_26 | Galamud, would you like to have an employee who felt that powerful when confronting obstacles? :) |
Tiger_ | A lot of times what happens is that they don't even give you a minute of their time on the phone? Any way to overcome this/ get them interested? |
galamud | That would be a good thing, I suppose =) |
JonathanA | Alright guys, I'm going to say goodnight.... had a BUSY day today! |
Dan_26 | Night Jonathan, thanks again for an awesome online discussion! |
JonathanA | Thank each other! I was in the backseat half the time! But you're welcome anyway!~ |
galamud | Hehe, you facilitated it! Pat yerself on the back! This is your doing! hehe =) |
Tiger_ | Yep thanks Jonathan |
JonathanA | Bye! TTYL |

Find out when the TV shows you care about air. Whether you want to know when to tune in live or or know when your shows have aired so you can find them online, FollowShows is an aptly-named website where you can quickly check to see a schedule of only shows you choose to follow. Even better, FollowShows offers you both a custom iCal calendar and RSS feed for keeping track of your favorites, meaning you can plug FollowShows into your calendar or RSS feed reader.
In ancient times keeping track of your favorite shows was simple, because there was only one TV channel and all it ever showed was I Love Lucy and Leave It To Beaver. Or something. I was born in the 80's and am not altogether clear about the early history of television.
My point, if I have one, is that newspaper inserts and magazines like TV Guide aren't very useful in a world with hundreds of TV channels and thousands of shows – most of which are only followed by a devoted core audience. A modern TV guide would cut through the crap you don't care about and only show you when the shows you care about are on. FollowShows is that modern TV guide.
Using FollowShows
Head to FollowShows to get started; you'll need to make an account. Once you do you can start browsing shows and adding them to your favourites list.
You're going to want to add shows, because this service is basically useless if you don't. Search if you need to, but remember, it's only really worth adding shows that are still on the air.
Once you've added all the shows you know of you can see a calendar of when what is on:
You can also use the service to keep track of which episodes of which show you've watched, if you want. It also includes the obligatory social service so you can keep track of what your friends watch. Check this out if you care; I don't.
RSS & iCal!
There are a few unlikely treats to be found in the settings menu:
That's right: you've found links to a custom iCal calendar and an RSS feed. You can easily add the iCal calendar to Google Calendar, Microsoft's Outlook and (appropriately enough) Apple's iCal:
The RSS feed can quickly be added to Google Reader or any other feedreader. You'll be updated the day an episode will broadcast.
Only interested in the RSS feed? FollowShows was built by the team behind MyTVRSS, a site that makes an RSS feed of your favorite shows. You could use it instead, but be warned: the RSS feed will include an ad for FollowShows.
You can import feeds from MyTVRSS to FollowShows, if you ultimately decide to switch to the "full version". Both are free.
Will this app change your life? Almost certainly not. It will, however, help you better keep track of the TV shows you use to waste your time.
Do you have a creative use for the iCal or RSS functionality of FollowShows? Share it in the comments below, along with any other thoughts. Also feel free to link to other sites for keeping track of what's on TV when.

amazing , gonna track some shows
Wow, great .. I can track all my favourite episodes.. :D
I have tried others... web based and apps and this one is great!
Smart and clean! -
sidereel.com is another website like that :)
If you make account ads aren't even intrusive :) -
Thanks for the site recommendation. I was looking for something like this. I used to subscribe to a website that sent a daily list of what was on TV that night, but they suddenly decided to make it a weekly newsletter that only highlighted shows they deemed worthy, so it became useless for me. This will do nicely.
Nice Post

It's been so long since an update! It has been a pretty hectic last few months. From deciding to leave Wildbrain and join 6 Point Harness, to getting my own place (finally) while still doing freelance has been insane. Tonight I decided to post some of the freelance work I did while I was still at Wildbrain.
For a 3 minute short called Click Stars online at allgirlarcade.com. Hopefully some of my original stuff will make it up soon!

Did anyone notice this basket of Italian Sweet Frying Peppers that appeared in my Pete Polombo slide show? This is the first time in my life I remember seeing them available for sale. When I googled "Italian Frying Peppers", one entry indicated that these peppers are the same as Cubanella peppers. Any experts out there? Whatever they are, I
Pete Palombo's Roadside Market, Denver Farmers Markets
I must say that even though Denver has got some great little neighborhood Farmer's Markets, they're just not the same as a trip to Pete's. Don't get me wrong, I love out little street markets which offer up a few vegetable vendors, always a good variety of Western Slope Peaches and Rocky Ford Cantaloupe, and home to

Ticket #7875 (closed defect: fixed)
Virtualbox 4.0 crash when clicking the "Settings" button -> Fixed in SVN
Reported by: | roentgen | Owned by: | |
Priority: | major | Component: | other |
Version: | VirtualBox 4.0.0 | Keywords: | |
Cc: | Guest type: | Windows | |
Host type: | Linux |
Virtualbox 4.0.0-69151~Ubuntu~maverick The host is Ubuntu 10.10 x64 and the guest is Windows XP Pro SP3.
With the VM powered off when I click the Settings button the Virtualbox GUI dissapears and core is dumped.
I had installed all the four 4.0 betas and I didn't notice this problem so far. (I don't check settings that much though)
I'm attaching the log and the core.

Same problem here: kUbuntu 10.10 x64
I can open settings when clicking a title (e.g. General or Storage) on the right side of the VB Manager while VM is powered off. Setting dialog opens as usual and changes can be made.
comment:12 Changed 6 years ago by csbac
Hi, great!
At least sometimes/for some vms, it works by clicking general; for others, it works when selecting snapshots (see comment 9), then the button.
I tried some more debugging; unfortunately, it crashes deep inside the (optimised) qt libraries, in inline code, so I'm unable to examine all data ...
@Oracle: Is the cause of the problem known, or should we investigate further? Maybe we should gather the QT versions we are using, here, to find out whether it is a qt version problem ...
Are there also i386-users who have this problem?
- System: Opensuse 11.3 x64
- Qt: libqt4-4.6.3-8.3.x86_64 from openbuildservice, not the opensuse original one
comment:13 Changed 6 years ago by frank
The cause is unknown but nevertheless I hope we can fix the problem quite soon.
comment:14 Changed 6 years ago by frank
Unfortunately still unable to reproduce. roentgen, could you attach the compressed output of dpkg --get-selections? Thank you!
comment:15 Changed 6 years ago by frank
Thanks. All: Does this crash only happen for 64-bit hosts or for 32-bit hosts as well?
comment:16 Changed 6 years ago by frank
Now we were able to reproduce it the first time. Changing the widget style from Default (Oxygen) to another style prevents the crash here.
comment:17 Changed 6 years ago by csbac
Mh. I tried various window decorations and various desktop designs ... still same results ..
Glassified+Redmond, looks awful, still crashes ...
Sorry, Sebastian
comment:18 Changed 6 years ago by frank

comment:19 Changed 6 years ago by frank
comment:20 Changed 6 years ago by csbac
Yeah, Great, Crash is Gone!
Btw, I switched "Erscheinungsbild von Anwendungen", "Stil" from Oxygen to anything else ... VBox still used Oxygen and still crashed. Strange, but doesn't matter any longer.
Thanks, Sebastian

Liam Tancock is fully prepared for tonight's 100m backstroke final but says that any of the eight swimmers could win the event.
Tancock finished second behind world champion Camille Lacourt, of France, in last night's opening semi-final and qualified third fastest overall with American Matt Grevers setting the pace.
Despite putting himself in medal contention, Tancock, the 50metre backstroke world champion, insisted: "I've genuinely got no expectations at all. The 100m backstroke is such an open event, the winner could come from any of the eight lanes so I'm not going to make predictions."
The semi-final, though, showed the progress the 27-year-old has made in the event. An explosive swimmer over the 50m, which is not an Olympic event, he has tended to tire in races and finish just out of medal contention.
He was sixth in the event at the last Olympics, a result he matched at last year's World Championships but goes into the final as a strong medal candidate.
"I'm in a position now where anything can happen, it's so tight," added Tancock, who has been one of our Standard Bearer columnists. "So it's not about me setting a medal target or saying what time I'll do."
Tancock's heat was the first race after Rebecca Adlington won bronze in the 400m freestyle and he admitted he had been inspired by the Beijing double gold medallist.
Such sentiments were echoed by Gemma Spofforth, who will line up in the women's 100m backstroke tonight with the sixth-fastest time from the semi-finals.
"I was so happy for Becky," she said. "It lifted me up, it was such an inspiration — two golds for her and now a bronze."
Spofforth, the world record holder and a former world champion in the event, has finetuned her preparations for the Olympics alongside Ryan Lochte, who narrowly missed out on another gold in the 4x100m freestyle but eased into tonight's final of the 200m freestyle.
"Ryan is such an amazing person and so passionate with it," said Spofforth. "He's an inspiration to train with."
While Lochte is already among the swimming stars of these Games after a superb 2012, Spofforth has had a difficult year and, in the build-up to the Olympic trials, admitted she found it hard to retain her enthusiasm.
"I've struggled the whole year," she said. "I had a lot of doubt and the confidence was knocked out of me. And as long as I enjoy it, I'll be happy."
Spofforth has struggled with her consistency in the past and, as a result refused to set any goals for herself going into the final.
"Tonight I'm just excited about what I do here," said Spofforth, who finished fourth in Beijing, missing out on a medal by four one hundredths of a second. "I felt a lot better in the water and I can be back to where I was.
"It's been quite a special journey for the last few years. The process and the journey are more important than the outcome. There were a lot of things that I corrected. I was overthinking the race and there's still little bits to play with for the final."
Britain's other finalist on day three in the pool is Robbie Renwick, who takes part in the first of the evening's finals, the men's 200m freestyle.
He will be up against Lochte and China's Sun Yang, both of whom already boast a gold medal to their name from these Games.
After missing out on a place in the 400m freestyle final, Renwick is determined to make amends tonight.
"I'm not happy to come last," he said. "I want to get in there and win medals. So it's fantastic to make this final. Once you're in there, anything can happen. I'm really looking forward to it and another drop of a second is well within my ability."
Tonight's final of the women's 100m breaststroke sees Australian Leisel Jones bidding to become the first swimmer to win medals at four consecutive Games. The defending champion was criticised in sections of the Australian media last week for arriving at the Games overweight.
"I've had my doubters," said the 26-year-old. "Having the odds stacked against you is really tough but you have to believe in yourself under those circumstances is even harder."

In the UK, EAFs are used to produce special quality steels (steels alloyed with other metals) and some ordinary (non-alloy) quality steels - the lighter long products such as those used for reinforcing concrete.
© Outokumpu Stainless
EAFs making special quality steels are located in Sheffield and Rotherham (in Yorkshire), while there are EAFs making ordinary quality steels at Sheerness on the Thames estuary in Kent and Cardiff in South Wales.
Unlike the basic oxygen route, the EAF does not use hot metal. It is charged with "cold" material. This is normally steel scrap (recycled goods made from steel which have reached the end of their useful life). Other forms of raw material are however available which have been produced from iron ore. These include direct reduced iron (DRI) and iron carbide, as well as pig iron, which is iron from a blast furnace which has been cast and allowed to go cold, instead of being charged straight into a basic oxygen vessel.
Steel scrap (or other ferrous material) is first tipped into the EAF from an overhead crane. A lid is then swung into position over the furnace. This lid contains electrodes which are lowered into the furnace. An electric current is passed through the electrodes to form an arc. The heat generated by this arc melts the scrap. The electricity needed for this process is enough to power a town with a population of 100,000.
During the melting process, other metals (ferro-alloys) are added to the steel to give it the required chemical composition. As with the basic oxygen process, oxygen is blown in to the furnace to purify the steel and lime and fluorspar are added to combine with the impurities and form slag.
After samples have been taken to check the chemical composition of the steel, the furnace is tilted to allow the slag, which is floating on the surface of the molten steel, to be poured off. The furnace is then tilted in the other direction and the molten steel poured (tapped) into a ladle, where it either undergoes secondary steelmaking or is transported to the caster.
The modern electric arc furnace typically makes 150 tonnes in each melt, which takes around 90 minutes.
Special quality steels. A vast range of special quality steels is made in electric arc furnaces by adding other metals to form steel alloys. The most commonly-known of these is stainless steel, which has chromium and nickel added to form a corrosion-resistant steel. There are very many others however: the very hard steels used to make machine tools, the steels specially-formulated to make them suitable for engineering, steels developed to survive for decades the hostile environment of nuclear reactors, light but strong steels used in aerospace, extra tough steels for armour plating - to name but a few.

ALAMEDA (CBS/AP) — Reggie McKenzie started researching Dennis Allen as a potential coaching candidate this past season when he first heard the Oakland Raiders might hire him as a general manager.
He talked to some of Allen's former players and coaching colleagues and only got rave reviews. When McKenzie sat down with Allen two weeks ago in Denver for his first interview, he knew he had found his man.
PHOTOS: Raiders New Head Coach, Dennis Allen
"The bottom line, he was what the doctor ordered," McKenzie said Monday at a news conference to introduce Allen. "He understood the big picture as far as putting a plan together, how to do this, this and this. We went over everything. How you treat people, how you treat players, getting a staff together. It was all right in line (with) the way I was thinking."
Watch Raiders News Conference: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3
With speculation pointing to McKenzie hiring one of his former colleagues in Green Bay to be his first head coach, he instead turned to the 39-year-old Allen, who had just one year of experience as a defensive coordinator in Denver and had never been a head coach at any level.
He starts his first head coaching job in Oakland with the task of turning around a franchise that has gone nine straight seasons without a winning record or a playoff berth while going through a revolving door of head coaches. Allen is the seventh head coach for the Raiders since 2003, but he is the first to be hired since longtime owner Al Davis died in October.
Davis' son, Mark, took over as managing general partner and hired McKenzie earlier this month to remake the football side of the organization. McKenzie immediately fired Hue Jackson, who went 8-8 in his only season as head coach, and then began the search that ended with Allen's hiring.
Allen got more stability than his predecessors with a four-year contract as opposed to the two guaranteed years they were given under Al Davis and will have more say in putting together his staff and roster than head coaches previously had in Oakland.
"At the end of the day, what I was really concerned with was, who are the people that are leading the organization now? The people who are leading the organization now are Mark Davis and Reggie McKenzie, and when I looked across the table at Reggie McKenzie, I knew that was a man that I believed in and that I trusted in," Allen said. "That was the only thing that was a concern to me, and that was what really drew me to this job."
Allen has plenty of work to do to turn the Raiders around after a nearly decade-long stretch of losing and poor play. Oakland has been plagued by sloppy play and porous run defense during that stretch and both issues were major problems last season.
Oakland also set an NFL record last season with 163 penalties for 1,358 yards so it came as little surprise that Allen used a version of the word discipline more than a half-dozen times in his news conference.
"The only way that you create habits is through consistency, doing the same things over and over and over," Allen said. "Well, if you're committing penalties, that becomes a habit. We've got to change those habits, all right? We've got to develop the proper habits so that we're not creating those penalties on a daily basis."
The Raiders are also coming off one of their worst defensive seasons ever. Oakland had franchise worsts in touchdown passes allowed (31), yards per carry (5.1), yards passing (4,262) and total yards (6,201), while giving up the third-most points (433) in team history.
The struggles came despite a unit that had high-priced and high-profile players throughout, from linemen Richard Seymour and Tommy Kelly to linebackers Rolando McClain and Kamerion Wimbley and defensive backs Stanford Routt and Michael Huff.
"I don't think radical changes are what need to be made," Allen said. "Obviously, just with all aspects of the game, you're always going to try to upgrade your team in whatever way that you can but I do still feel like there's a talented defense. I feel like we got enough players, both on offense and defense, that we can win a championship with."
Allen and McKenzie will make those tweaks together as McKenzie envisions a general manager-coach relationship similar to the successful ones he witnessed as an executive in Green Bay.
"This is a team effort," McKenzie said. "When we go about getting players, work on getting a staff in here, how we're going to do things on the football side, we're going to do these things together. It's not, 'I got this, you have this.' We're not doing it like that. The right hand will know what the left hand is doing. We're in this thing together."
Allen said he will not call defensive plays as head coach, preferring to be a "game manager" who is deeply involved in all facets of the team on game days. That will put a greater importance on the staff he puts together.
The Raiders have only one assistant currently under contract, offensive coordinator Al Saunders, and there is no assurance that he will return. McKenzie said Allen could keep a few of the other assistants but most of the staff will be new.
Allen wants a defense that attacks the quarterback and is stout against the run. Allen also said he wants to run an up-tempo, aggressive offense and believes he has many of the playmakers needed to make it work. Carson Palmer will be back for his first full season with the Raiders and has already talked to Allen and McKenzie about the new direction for the franchise.
"Carson Palmer is extremely excited about what we have going here," Allen said. "He's looking forward to the future and he's excited about the opportunities here."

Adult-onset hunters: Online firearms safety course now offers 'virtual field day'
- 15 July, 2013 //
- Outdoors Now //
- Tags : enforcement, hunting, hunting safety, youth hunting
Minnesota's online hunter education safety course is now available to adults with an option for a "virtual field day."
An online course has been available for four years, and it remains a topic of debate whether nine hours in front of the computer screen can substitute for six classes led by a team of certified firearms safety instructors. Several studies from other states suggest online courses are as effective or more effective than actual classrooms. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is in the midst of its own study, due out later this year.
I've met a number of parents who say the kids today relate well to the online course, while I've talked to instructors who believe there's no possible substitute for the hands-on experience — and commitment — of the traditional course. Meanwhile, the largest demographic for the online classes has become adults ages 20 to 40, said Capt. Mike Hammer, education coordinator for the DNR's enforcement division.
What hasn't been an option previously is the instructor-supervised field day; it's been required of everyone before receiving a firearms safety certificate. Now, people over 18 can complete the course and bypass the field day if they want. Such graduates will still have the option for a voucher that will allow them to attend a field day.
Anyone born after Dec. 31, 1979, is required to possess a certificate, granted upon completion of the course, for most forms of hunting. That's anyone younger than 33, and the percentage of adults taking up hunting who will need the certificate grows each year. The DNR notes the online course will be convenient for law enforcement and military personnel, a segment of adults who obviously carry a familiarity with firearms, but not necessarily the nuances of hunting. Common participants include veteran hunters who need a certificate for an upcoming hunting to another state, such as Colorado, that requires them for a wider range of ages.
A field day typically involves instructors taking students to a range. The students fire rounds, often from a .22 rifle, at targets, with instructors watching, both for safe firearms handling as well well shooting advice. Sometimes handguns or other firearms are fired, and a field day often involves students demonstrating field-safety practices, such as how to cross a barbed wire fence with a long gun. (You don't; you hand it to your partner while you deal with the obstacle.)
One thing seems clear to me: There is no substitute for handling and firing a live firearm, and the online course does not require that.
But, Hammer notes, the online course tells students the obvious: Before every taking a loaded firearm in the field, every hunter should spend time at a range.
"There's a lot of repetition in the course," Hammer said. "That's the point: over and over, reminding students of basics like muzzle control. The topics in the virtual field day are excellent reminders of safe field gun habits. It's an hour's-plus worth of information they saw in the online course but repackaged."
Hammer said less than half of states now require live-fire work to earn a firearms safety certificate. Minnesota still requires the in-person field day for anyone younger than 18 and anyone taking the traditional in-person class.
From the DNR:
Online firearms safety hunter course now available for adults
Minnesota residents 18 and older can now take the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources' firearms (DNR) safety hunter education course online.
The new training option includes a virtual field day that emphasizes responsible gun handling and hunting safety. Students who complete the course are issued a voucher that they can use to complete their certification immediately or attend an instructor led field day.
"This will greatly increase certification accessibility to working adults and military personnel who traditionally have conflicts trying to scheduling a multi-week classroom course," said Capt. Mike Hammer, DNR Enforcement education program coordinator.
Minnesota and Iowa are the first states to offer this option for adults. The online course takes about nine hours to complete and is interactive with narration, quizzes and final exam. Both the main course and field day include a virtual range where students can shoot various firearms and action types at a variety of targets and distances. There's even instruction on how to properly sight-in rifles and pattern a shotgun.
"This is a great addition to our computer based adult safety training programs," Hammer said. "We think it will be a huge success and create even more safe hunters."

To Market
The anticipation of not knowing what you might find.
Good morning—I hope you have had a wonderful weekend! The majority of my weekend was spent working, but I did enjoy a bit of fun—the highlight? stopping at the market. Each year, I look forward to going to the annual night market—it is a large, cultural event held each Summer, on weekends from May to September, with rows and rows of vendors selling a myriad of clothing, jewelry, accessories, food, drinks, everything you can imagine! Young and old gather each year and enjoy the lively atmosphere, food and finds. I love the sites and smells, and picking up something to eat (most especially roasted corn on the cob) while wandering the aisles—excited by what I might come across... do you enjoy markets as well?
And also, some of this week's finds to share with you: a sunny, Summer glow / lovely, lacy bracelets + vintage brooches (to die for!) / a beautiful color scheme: nude + caramel / back to its roots: Starbucks re–vamped / a narrow house / an amazing shower / an organic linen necklace, with delicate pale pink petals and pearls / a cozy and chic house in Greece / great styling: a table for two / the sweetest, sewn illustrations / gorgeous shoes / and, lastly, a very pretty, elegant locket ring... have a great Monday!

had the implant 16 years ago. its silicone. I am wanting to take up karate and worried it might shift if it gets a knock (even though i would wear a face guard) do you think this is a potential problem? If so, would it just be a case of opening it up and sticking in a screw? Any idea of the cost involved in this adjustment and if the 16 years of bedding/healing I have gained would be negated? many thanks Chris

Ever Make An Inappropriate Joke? I Did!
Years ago, I'd arrived at the office and was racing to my desk when I passed by the conference room, where an editorial meeting was taking place.
This was at the height of the political correctness movement, and the funny thing is, I was one of its biggest proponents. I spent whatever moments I wasn't at parties running out into the street to protest the government, homophobes, offensive movies, and anyone else who did the wrong thing--or worse, nothing.
But I was in a giddy mood this day and felt really cocky, so I stuck my head into the conference room for a second and made a weird wisecrack.
"I've just been diagnosed with lupus," I deadpanned.

I knew the staff would find this riotously funny, slurping up every bon mot I served because after all, I was such a fabulous wit and the paper was the lucky weekly recipient of my glorious gift for wordplay.
But my remark was greeted with horrified silence. No one knew what to make of it. My pulse slowed and I started sweating.
"I'm allergic to myself," I nervously added, hoping I'd get a laugh this time. I made sure to say it as if the first line was just a setup. The second one would not only explain the joke, it would deliver major yucks.
But the air became evern more weighted with horror. Everyone thought I'd really been diagnosed with some terrible illness. I looked around and saw jaws dropping and people's faces turning flush with upset. And the few who figured out that I was joking thought it was the dumbest thing they'd ever heard, so they were equally horrified. And they were right.
Fortunately, the whole faux pas taught me a valuable lesson:
Know your audience. Un p.c. jokes only work on rare occasions, so you've got to know when and where to drop them, and mostly importantly what to say and how to say it.
I no longer crack lupus jokes anywhere.

Junior Achievement USA® and ING U.S. Foundation present 2013 Teens & Careers Survey
Colorado Springs, Colo. – Released today, Junior Achievement USA® (JA) and the ING U.S. Foundation's 2013 Teens & Careers survey reveals a substantial year-over-year decline in teens' interest in science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) and medical-related fields. This is the 12th year the survey has been conducted. An executive summary of the 2013 Junior Achievement USA Teens & Career Survey is available here.
While almost half (46 percent) of all teens surveyed showed interest in pursuing either a STEM or medical-related job, there was a 15 percent decrease from last year's data. Despite interest declining, the United States Department of Labor predicts employment opportunities in STEM careers will increase by 17 percent through 2018.
"It is crucial that we reinvigorate teens about pursuing opportunities in STEM and medical-related careers," said Jack E. Kosakowski, president and CEO of Junior Achievement USA. "These fields drive our economy and innovation; they are not only high-growth career paths but also creative outlets where teens can apply their passions."
The survey highlighted 'passion' and 'area of interest' as the number one factor guiding teens' career choices. In order to spark interest among teens and build momentum for these growing fields, teens need assistance. They need mentors and programs that will help guide them through these major life decisions.
"It's our role as parents, mentors, and advisors to work together to educate students about the many academic and career options they have in life," said Rhonda Mims, president of the ING U.S. Foundation and senior vice president, ING U.S.'s Office of Corporate Responsibility. "Often, students don't realize that the classes they take today can significantly shape the careers they build tomorrow—and possibly—their long-term financial security. With an emphasis on mentoring and practical skills-building, Junior Achievement's financial literacy and work readiness programs can play an important role in setting students on a solid career path to future success."
Junior Achievement offers volunteer-led programs for students in kindergarten through high school to provide them with hands-on learning experiences and invaluable role models. Junior Achievement volunteers share professional experiences with students, adding a real-world dimension to the programs. Its newest program, JA Career Success™, helps students identify their desired careers and better understand how to develop the skills necessary to achieve success. As part of the curriculum, students learn how to effectively conduct a job search, how best to respond to common interview questions and how positively building their personal brand can translate to a rewarding career.
Other key findings from the survey include:
- Eighty-three percent of teens are confident they will land their "dream" job at some point in their career but only five percent are pursuing an internship in their area of interest
- Twenty-eight percent of teens are financially contributing in preparation of paying for college; this is 24 percent less than last year
- Both the 2012 and 2013 studies indicated that teens' parents or guardians are the primary financial contributors for continuing education and training
- 38 percent of teens said that the status of the economy has not affected their career plans; they feel comfortable with the economy because they can rely on parents and caregivers in terms of their futures
An executive summary of the 2013 Junior Achievement USA Teens & Career Survey is available here.
This report presents the findings of a study conducted Feb. 5-15, 2013, using the KnowledgePanel to interview 1,025 teens ages 14-18 years old. The survey's margin of error is +/- 3 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.
About Junior Achievement USA® (JA)

In most religious traditions one prays to the deities of the tradition in the hopes of receiving their blessing, which will benefit one in some way. In the vajrayana Buddhist tradition, however, the blessing and the power and the superlative qualities of the enlightened beings are not considered as coming from an outside source, but are believed to be innate, to be aspects of our own true nature. Chenrezig and his love and compassion are within us.

I agree. Isn't it ironic that so many have been killed in the name of religion?

Like the training wheels, the formulations then need to be removed and laid aside so they don't interfere with the bike ride. In less desirable cases, religious followers confuse the guidelines with the goal and seek to impose their guidelines on everyone around them.

More Battlestations: Pacific DLC InboundWritten Thursday, July 02, 2009 By Dan Webb View author's profile |
Eidos today announced that Battlestations: Pacific will be receiving two new downloadable content packs over the coming weeks, with one being available to download right now.
The Mustang Pack, available now for 160 Microsoft Points, will feature six new units and eighteen new pieces of nose art. The Carrier Battles Map Pack will drop on July 23rd for 800 Microsoft Points giving gamers four new maps to play across the game's five multiplayer scenarios.
The Mustang Pack will feature "six new units and 18 new pieces of nose art, the Mustang Pack allows players to customise their battles in both single and multiplayer modes. Amongst the units, players can take to the skies in the legendary US P-51 Mustang bomber escort, a late entry to the Pacific campaign but one which made its mark in Europe as a deadly force; or control the seas with the US Navy's Alaska Class, giving the upper hand with a large and heavily armed 'cruiser killer'; or the Super Yamato Class, a huge behemoth of a ship which, had it left the drawing board, would have outclassed the Yamato in every way with the potential to be the most powerful battleship in history."
"The Carrier Battles Map Pack gives gamers four new maps, playable across all five multiplayer modes. Take part in a clash of carriers at Midway, do battle at dawn in the mist of the Philippine Islands, experience the fury of Kamikaze attacks in the rocky islands of the Leyte Gulf and take control of your forces amongst the mountain peaks and glacial waters of the icy Aleutian Islands."
The Mustan Pack is available now and The Carrier Battles Map Pack is available July 23rd.
Take a look at the 6 new screens for the Battlestations: Pacific DLC here.
