What You Should Know Before You Choose a Credit Card Processing Service
In the twenty first century, it's incredibly important that you find a way to create revenue. It should be stated that the business world is remarkably competitive. If you're struggling to generate revenue, it will be almost impossible for you to keep your doors open. Your sales will be your primary source of most revenue. As you may imagine, there are many ways to increase sales. Marketing can be helpful, and you should also think about your sales staff. One element that is often overlooked, however, is your approach to credit card payment processing. Believe it or not, most sales are made with credit cards. Credit cards offer a fast and convenient way for people to complete transactions. You're only hurting your sales figures if you do not accept credit cards. If you want to ameliorate this issue, talk to your credit card processing service immediately.
As you may know, there are dozens of credit card processing services to evaluate. It can be difficult to choose a processing service when there are so many options to choose from. Your number one goal should be to find a credit card processing service that will work for your unique company. Before you talk to a processing team, take inventory of your situation. You'll want to think about the revenue that you generate each month. The next step is to look at your budget. Remember that a credit card processing service doesn't need to be overly expensive. If you look around, you should find a processing service that is both affordable and reliable.
After you have looked at your budget, you'll want to think about security. Remember that hacking is tremendously common. When your customers give you their credit card information, they are trusting you with sensitive information. You need to do everything that you can to keep this information secure. Talk to your credit card processing service if you have any questions about security.
Services Tips for The Average Joe
As you install your credit card processing page, you'll want to think about the user experience. In today's world, people are very impatient. If your page is difficult to use, they will only become frustrated. Talk to your credit card processing service if you need help designing a good payment page.
Incredible Lessons I've Learned About Merchants
As you look at your credit card processing service, remember that versatility is incredibly important. Remember that there are any number of ways to pay for products. Tablets are very common, but some people prefer to use phones. Your credit card processing service should accommodate all options. By accepting credit card payments, you can generate more revenue for your small business.

If at all possible, do not put large rugs or carpeting in your home. It is virtually impossible to get carpet entirely clean, as mites, dust, could trigger your allergy symptoms. Flooring that can be cleaned easily mopped is best for allergy sufferers.
Dust mites are unavoidable for allergy sufferers. Be sure to launder your bedding weekly in hot water possible so that dust mites.
Avoid anything which contains colorant as you might be allergic to it.This may even include toiler paper with designs on it. Try using products made of just white paper in your house and it might aid in reducing your allergy symptoms.
Olive trees have begun gaining popularity in many western states. These particular trees produce a lot of pollen.Learning how to identify this tree can help prepare you to protect yourself from its allergy-producing properties. Using a water hose to saturate these trees for a minute or so daily can help to reduce pollen.
If you find yourself fighting allergy symptoms throughout the day, then pay attention to the time of day! Pollen is out in full force between the hours of 5 and 10 a.m., and if possible, avoid going out during these times. If you have to go out, don't undertake strenuous activity and don't stay out for too long.
Hopefully now you have a better idea of how you can overcome your allergy issues. Just using some of this advice can bring you relief. Apply these tips to your life and you will better cope with your allergies and possibly rid yourself of symptoms.

ZRX and MK1 MX5 (Miata in the states) shame the bike wasn't going faster, would like to see just how quick the car could have gone through the turns
Is that the video you mentioned? I just was on the Dragon recently and have new appreciation for 4 wheels. There was bunch of fast cars there, Miata is a popular car to sup up here btw. Mazda produced potent turbo 323 sometimes back. Years back I even was preparing to build go fast Mazda motor like that but eventually got V8 to play with.
Now Dragon, I particularly sucked at hairpin turns with elevation change, that sport cars had no problem to take fast, even on wet pavement. Need more practice.
This is popular pit stop on north Carolina side the bike and car are leaving from on the vid.

I push the car in places I wouldn't dare on the bike, tree's and brick walls tend you get your attention on two wheels, thing is, you'd get hurt either way but the car gives you a false sense of security.

Well I woulda kicked his shiny new bike clean off the side stand while he was standing there looking at me.
Or, even better, threw his keys into the back of the pickup while they were stopped in traffic, just as the pickup was moving off.
The dopey, gun-toting, little prick.
He'll end up with a half dozen 9mm hollow points buried in his chest someday and everyone will be to blame except him.
Statistically you are correct, mortality amongst this demographic is astounding.
I linked this video for ethnographic value. Although this whole mugging scene looks made up to generate interest general attitude is typical to local inhabitants here.

Kristina Rhianoff has said that she'd be up for going back to Strictly Come Dancing for the annual festive special.
The 39-year-old dancer recently quit the show after eight years won't rule out a comeback in the future, but for now she is currently too busy with her and her partner Ben Cohen's three-month-old daughter Mila.
She said: "I've been watching it [Strictly Come Dancing] and it's a little weird to be on the other side. I wouldn't have wanted to go back. Not because I didn't love the show, but Strictly has such an intense schedule.
"Having a family makes our priorities shift so much. I don't want to miss Mila growing up. But never say never. I would maybe go back for the Christmas special."

Dublin, 21 ST July 2016: Affidea, Ireland's leading independent diagnostic imaging provider, formerly known as Euromedic, today opened new medical scanning facility in Letterkenny to serve the people of Donegal and surrounding areas. Minister for Health, Mr Simon Harris TD attended the unveiling at Affidea's state-of- the-art clinic.
Patients who want to arrange a private scan in the Republic of Ireland currently face a two hour drive to Sligo. The company is creating ten jobs and is investing €2m in opening the Letterkenny clinic, as part of an overall €15m investment in the Irish healthcare sector. The multi-modality scanning centre is located on Scally Place off Pearse Road in Letterkenny. It will serve as a primary care diagnostic scanning facility, offering MRI, Ultrasound and X-ray. Affidea Letterkenny is equipped with state of the art technology including the High Specification Philips Ingenia Wide Bore MRI Scanner, providing the highest quality scans and a much improved patient experience, particularly for patients who experience claustrophobia or those who find it difficult to tolerate the noise of older scanners.
Affidea clinics are accredited with the internationally recognised standard in ambulatory care from the Joint Commission International (JCI) and will operate the new clinic in Letterkenny to the same exacting standards while undergoing the accreditation process.
Tom Finn, CEO of Affidea, said: "Today is a landmark in a primary healthcare evolution for Donegal and the North West. The Letterkenny clinic will serve to ensure local patients have greater accessibility to medical scans, quickly, professionally and to the highest of standards. The new clinic will ensure patients can receive the timely attention they need in a primary care environment, rather than hospital based setting. Affidea is proud to offer an ultrasound service in conjunction with the HSE from our new Letterkenny centre, offering an expanded and seamless service to public and private patients."
Affidea has recently rebranded from Euromedic, to ensure a uniform identity across Europe, and to aid European growth and support the organisations aggressive global expansion plans. Affidea entered the Irish market in March 2007 through the acquisition of MRI Ireland. Over the past eight years, six further locations have been added to the network in Ireland with more centres expected nationwide over the coming months.

I Like the composition and the concept. Colin. I'd probably recommend lowering the height of the main light. The shadow on the nose touches the upper lip area. I'm not so sure if that is really a standard on this kind of shot. It'd be nice if you can make a deliberate comparison between 2 shots; one with the shadow not touching the lips and this one. I probably read too much books, that's why.
Hi Willie,
I like to use Rembrant lighting for many of these types of shot (hence the shadow connecting with the mouth); unfortunately though, with high-contrast lighting, one has to also bring the lit much further around the front to avoid "dead eye", which changes it's effect.
I actually varied the light in height and position quite a bit for this series, and this was the best I came up with - also, lowering it more puts a shadow on the face from the gun
Now I understand. Thanks for the explanation. She's really a nice model, btw.
I think a little bit more retouching on her nose and cheeks would be better. Just my opinion.
I like it Colin, but if I can sound picky for a moment. Two trigger fingers?
Thanks for that.
I thought about it, but decided against it ... for a normal soft light portrait I would, but with hard light / gun etc we thought that something a bit more edgy would be more appropriate. Having said that though, the hard light (a medium grid) is pretty harsh on skin texture, so I did a bit of skin smoothing (or she might have pulled out a real gun afterwards!), but left the specularity.
PS: What's your first name?
Well she did fantastic and I doubt I would last 50 shots.
Very nice composition and lighting. The skin tone is very good and the texture is soft. I like it.

It's such a cliché – new year, new beginning; but I did it anyway. Remember last year when I started the 17 day diet but quit because I was getting too obsessive? Well I gained back five pounds and was feeling miserable so I have decided to go back on the diet. This time I am following it much more loosely. I don't care about what time of day I take in certain nutrients, or if I cheat and have a bit of bacon here and there. It's not about any particular food being bad anymore, but whether or not I'm getting the right macronutrients in sufficient amounts, without going over what my body needs to the point where the weight goes back on.
It's working. I've lost the five pounds I put back on (must have been mostly bloat), and am on the road to make some additional progress. One of the best parts is that this time the family is on board. They are having fun trying out new recipes and learning about how food can fuel the fun things they want to do. I haven't taken away their candy, chips, or sugar cereals. They just join me in my dinner meal which is generally the biggest of my day so that we can all enjoy sitting to the table together. We have found all kinds of fun ways to cook poultry, and on the days I eat stuff they don't care for (fish) they go out for tacos or something. It has been easy and painless so far.
It is interesting to note that I gained that five pounds back so quickly and lost it quickly as well. I think the contributing factor might be wheat, because the weight changes have been associated with adding bread back, and taking bread out of my diet. I may be slightly intolerant. I will be watching that closely as I start adding things back to my food rotation since this diet is based largely on an ingredient elimination scenario. If it turns out that wheat is a contributing factor, it may mean that I eat less of it in the future. In the meantime, since I lost what I gained back, any future losses mean progress toward my ultimate goal.
One of the reasons I picked now to do this is that almost everyone I go out to lunch with at work is on a diet too. For that reason, we are all less likely to take an hour to get a pizza at the Italian place, or run down to get some fast food on the strip as a group. Call me a lemming, but it's working for now. However, when February rolls around and they all go off the wagon, I'll have to bear up and focus on how to stay eating in a healthy way. I am really working to get out of the overweight BMI category. Sure, part of that is because I want to wear cute clothes; but there are other reasons too, like modeling responsible eating for my kids, and being around when they are grown-up. Also, cute clothes. *yay!* Because seriously, nobody is that virtuous.

I'm very much not planning on doing a wrap up of my capsule wardrobe each week. Taking a picture of my outfit each day was such a pain. I can't imagine doing it every day for the next three months. But, I did want to do a quick recap and reflection on how the first week went.
To sum it up: not too well. It's September, but this week ended up being one of the hottest so far this summer, which was challenging because a good portion of my capsule is fall-focused clothing and I didn't include any very lightweight stuff in it, aside from the viscose shirt seen in Thursday's outfit.
Another problem with the capsule: I felt bored. I kept wanting to cheat and wear something not in the capsule. Actually, the shirt I wore on Wednesday isn't in the capsule. I pulled it out of summer clothing because it was a hot day (not that that particular shirt is particularly lightweight, it's silk, and heavy. I ended up having to change out of it before leaving the house to go out that evening).
Maybe when the temperature dip below 90 or so degrees, sticking with the capsule will be more fun, since I'll actually get to layer and wear more than just sleeveless shirts and skirts. For now, though, my big question is: Will I make it through the season with just 41 pieces of clothing?
What I'm wearing:
- Monday's outfit: Top, Banana Republic (old), Skirt, Banana Republic
- Tuesday's outfit: Top, Banana Republic (old), Skirt, BCBGMaxAzria (way old, I've had this since 2010)
- Wednesday's outfit: Top, Equipment (available here), Skirt, J.Crew
- Thursday's outfit: Top, Boden (here), Skirt, Anthropologie (old)
- Friday's outfit: T-Shirt, J.Crew (similar here), Skirt, J.Crew (old)

January 15, 2018: Taavi Kotka, former CIO of Estonia
Among other topics, Taavi discussed the following issues with Metis Strategy:
- The conditions that enabled Estonia's transformation into the world's most advanced digital society
- Taavi's transition from CEO of one of the largest software development companies in the Baltic states to Estonian Government CIO, as well as some of the early projects he led
- How blockchain technology can provide an extra layer of data security
- How Estonia reduces friction for citizens by using regulation to encourage data sharing between government entities
- The ways in which digital technology improves efficiency and simplifies life for Estonian citizens in areas such as healthcare, banking, taxes, education, voting, law enforcement, among others
- How giving citizens control over their data creates a self-enforcing mechanism that protects privacy and provides security
- The genesis of Estonia's e-Residency program, and how it allows Estonia to grow its economy without relying on increased birth rates or immigration
- Taavi's view on the disruption of government and the future of digital society
Taavi is the former CIO of the Estonian Government, which is widely recognized as the most advanced digital society in the world. As CIO, Taavi was the driving force behind many of Estonia's e-government innovations such as its e-Residency program, which, just two years after launch, offers a transnational digital identity to over 20,000 e-Residents worldwide.
Prior to his four-year term as the Estonian Government CIO, Taavi was the CEO of Nortal (previously Webmedia), one of the largest software development companies in the Baltic States. Taavi was one of Webmedia's founding members and served as its Chief Development Officer and Managing Director prior to becoming CEO. Taavi serves as Special Advisor to the European Commissioner for Digital Single Market, advising on issues regarding digital single market issues and e-governance. Taavi was named Estonian Entrepreneur of the year in 2011 by Ernst & Young, the European CIO of the year in 2014 by ICT Spring, and the 12th brightest business mind in North-Europe in 2016 by the Nordic Business Forum.
Taavi obtained a Master of Science in Engineering from Tallinn University of Technology, and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering and Information Technology from the University of Tartu.

Joe Bryan's opener was cancelled out by Zlatan Ibrahimovic's fierce free-kick, before Korey Smith netted the winner in the dying seconds of the game.
Bristol City will now face Manchester City in the final four.
"They (Bristol City) were a bit lucky. But they fought a lot to be a bit lucky. They won the game when everyone was waiting for our goal.
"It's a beautiful day for a football. The team from the lower division won. I don't want people to think me saying they are lucky to be the main thing. I am happy for them.
"In the second-half after the goal we were the best team, we reacted well. For them it's a big night, in this club we know how to win and we know how to lose. We wish them luck in the semi-final.
"It was another day in the office and for some of our players they probably didn't even want to come into the office today," Mourinho told Sky.

Nissan announced a seven seat version of the all-electric e-NV200, finally an electric car for the whole family.
Since its inception, a seven seat version of the revolutionary van has always been part of Nissan's plans, fulfilling an unmet need for an electric vehicle that can move a larger number of people. From taxi fleets to shuttle services and even to large families, the seven seat e-NV200 Evalia offers a zero-emission solution. For those with a more regular need to move cargo and an occasional need for seven seats, the Combi version of the e-NV200 can also be specified with the larger seating capacity.
The seven seat version of the e-NV200 is configured with two seats in the front, three in the middle and two in the rear. Both the second and third rows can be folded to allow for larger quantities of luggage to be carried, making the new variant a hugely flexible vehicle for commercial or private use. The second row rolls forward and the third row folds to the sides to open up an enormous 2.94 cubic metres of cargo capacity, which is enough to transport three bicycles with the wheels in place, unique in this class. With all three rows in place, the luggage capacity is 443 litres under the tonneau cover, and up to an impressive 870 litres when measured to the roof line, allowing the possibility to carry seven people and a large volume of luggage.
To increase passenger comfort the seven seat passenger version comes equipped with additional rear air conditioning. The new model is available with the CHAdeMO quick charging system, which gives the access to the most widely installed rapid charging system in Europe today with over 1,500 accessible points. The quick charging option allows businesses or drivers to extend journeys or do multiple short journeys in a day with a quick top up.

Cameron Diaz is Pal Gwyneth Paltrow's 'Beauty Mentor'
Cameron Diaz rocks an oversized sweater while soaking up some sun on Wednesday afternoon (March 9) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

"Cameron Diaz is probably my biggest beauty mentor of my friends," Gwyneth told Elle. "She knows how to do her own hair and makeup; she's really good at it. And she was the one who really taught me how to do my own hair and makeup back in the day so she's my biggest beauty mentor. There are lots of tips�"I can't remember them off the top of my head."

Back in May, a production team from Lynda.com paid a visit to Second Story and spent about a week quizzing us on process and creativity. The week of interviews resulted in a mini documentary chronicling life at the studio. The video becomes the newest episode in their Creative Inspiration series, a collection of videos capturing creative professionals in their native environments. The other subjects in the series are quite eclectic and include Mark Mothersbaugh, Ze Frank, Troika Design Group, Big Spaceship, and Schematic Interactive. Apparently, they're working towards a DVD release of the series.
Here's something of a trailer for the video:
They've also posted the overture to the video on YouTube. Here, Brad Johnson talks about classroom charts, bike commuting, comfy conference rooms, science, and creativity. Here it is:
Here's the Lynda.com synopsis of the documentary:
"Above a bakery in Portland, Oregon, a unique group of storytellers are quietly changing museum and exhibit experiences all over the world. In this Creative Inspirations documentary, we meet Second Story, creators of award-winning interactive projects for clients that include the Getty Museum, National Geographic, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Smithsonian Institution, just to name but a few.Founders Julie Beeler and Brad Johnson introduce us to their uniquely talented studio where their signature interactive design is conceived and produced. Second Story creates immersive adventures that educate and entertain through compelling visuals, touch and play, and inspiring participation through curiosity. We follow the team as they reveal one of their latest triumphs, the Age of Mammals exhibit at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, designed to both please the doctorates and the first graders who participate in their finished project."

As an aside, it's interesting to see the level of attention contemporary design studios are receiving in the media, specifically in videos. Historically, there has been scant film documentation on designers, besides the most prominent. The web has really changed that, and it's great to see so many different approaches out there. As a tip of the hat to the masters, here's a creative documentary rendering of Paul Rand:

5 Ideas For How To Make Money Online From Home
The task of making money on the internet is not that hard. But in reality, many people struggle to ever make their 1st commission let alone earn a full-time income online.
So in this article I will discuss 5 proven ideas to make money online and reveal how you can mesh them together into a unique online business model.
1. Affiliate Marketing - This is one of the easiest ways to earn money on the internet for beginners. You just make commissions by selling other peoples products. What I see in this industry is newbies trying to create their own products and just getting overwhelmed with all the complexities that it entails. However, when you promote an existing product online you shortcut the complicated stuff and just cut to the getting paid side of things!
2. Network Marketing - Traditional offline network marketing with old school companies such as Amway and Herbalife can be quite tricky for the beginner. However, when you take this model to the internet then you can do very well with internet based network marketing opportunities. These companies will give you all you need to succeed right out of the box including a lead capture system, sales funnel, and internet marketing training material.
3. Freelance Writing - Lots of people prefer to get paid by writing on the internet because it is more predictable income than trying to build your own business. If that is how you feel, then you are likely to find a steady stream of paid online article writing jobs from freelance websites like Elance and Odesk as well as contacting webmasters directly. There is a constant demand for fresh new content to be produced so this is a popular way to earn money from home part time.
4. Paid Surveys - This is another form of work from home job. You do not need any special skills to make money online by filling out surveys and companies are always on the lookout for people to do so. The money is low, but if you get through enough of them in a day then it can add up to a respectable amount. The reason companies want people to do these surveys is for lead generation and market research purposes.
5. Blogging - You can make money blogging by creating your own blog and publishing fresh new content to it each and every day. The key is to write simple posts that help solve problems for visiting searching for these answers via the search engines. If you stay consistent with your blogging then over time you will have a steady stream of free website traffic as a result of this. The aim is to pick out high quality affiliate programs to promote to your visitors. But the first part of the puzzle, is to get the blog traffic coming in.

Migrants continue their journey into Europe
Syrian refugees continue to arrive at the Roszke migrant camp in Hungary, awaiting bus service to other European nations. Rough Cut (no reporter narration).
ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) New arrivals continued to enter the camp in Roszke, Hungary on Sunday, many having walked down train tracks from Serbia. Thousands of refugees are crossing the border to Hungary, an eastern outpost of Europe's passport-free Schengen zone, every day. Many are travelling on to the continent's more prosperous west and north, reluctant to register there preferring to continue travelling towards Germany, Sweden, Norway or Austria to register. Hungary says that as of Tuesday (September 15), authorities will receive and start processing asylum requests at the border and transport all those who apply by bus to camps elsewhere in the country. Those migrants who refuse to cooperate will be kept at the border, and those who cross the border illegally, trying to avoid police, face arrest and possible imprisonment.

Busy+Owls+July+Reading the Publishing Date=This Post
First off, I just want to say that I'm going to be pretty busy for the next... oh... several months (until the end of summer), and probably won't be able to post as much, as sad as that sounds. :( I felt really bad about it, but God made me realize that I didn't need to worry about it. So... can you guys promise you won't freak out if I don't get a post on here every single day? Because that would seriously be a stress reliever. There's so much work to be done here, and it's hard to fit in time. But I promise that I'll try and post as much as possible, and answer your comments as much as possible, too. So that you guys can comment and don't have to wait for me to moderate it, I'm considering taking off all comment restrictors so that you guys can just comment away and it won't take as long as it used to. :) That sound good? I sure hope so. Anyway, I just wanted to give a little update on how my knee's doing. Amazingly? I can sprint now!! And play volleyball normally!! And jump!! It's so amazing what God does, isn't it? :) I'm sooooo excited!!!!! :)
Have you guys ever read the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series? Because that owl in that picture really reminds me of one of the owls. (Soren, I think it was? Anyway...) They were pretty interesting at first, and then I got into the "history books era", as I call it, and got absolutely bored to death. (owls+owl history+no dialogue=Storyteller being bored out of her brains.) But they were pretty good at the beginning. :D
Oh my word!! I can't believe it's July, can you?! I mean, really. June seemed like it just snuck up on me. But July?! Pretty soon it's going to be 2014. =P What a scary thought... I still haven't really gotten used to 2013!!!! Though, sadly enough, 2012 it starting to sound old. =P
I have a question. Does anybody else check the front of books to find out when they were published? *waves guilty hand* I don't really know why I do that. Maybe because I want to find out if the book's going to be modern or outdated by a few years. (like... will they be using iPhones, or slap-shut phones?) I actually read a book a few months back where they had a cell phone that was like a huge walkie talkie. =D It was pretty funny. ;)
Anyway, I'll get back to you guys later. :)

Don't worry about not posting every day, in fact, you're the only blogger I know who does! And yes, I always check the publishing date in the front of books! I find it interesting, and I love it when they're published in like the 1600s; it's so cool to be reading a book that people way-back-when might have read!ReplyDelete
Yes, I'm guilty of looking to see when books are published. It can actually be very interesting and cool. :)ReplyDelete
You are a very diligent blogger!ReplyDelete
I'm amazed at the quality and quantity of your posts.

|Re: deploying a resource adapter (fwd)
|Sun, 08 Jan 2006 15:49:54 GMT
I believe there are 3 ways you could do this: 1) Create a single geronimo-ra.xml with more than one resourceadapter entry in it, each of which defines a separate Geronimo configuration (including a separate outbound connection factory) 2) Create a single geronimo-ra.xml with one resourceadapter entry, containing one outbound-resourceadapter, containing one connection-definition, containing multiple connectiondefinition-instance elements (each for a separate database or whatever the resource adapter connects to) 3) Create multiple geronimo-ra.xml files and deploy them each separately: java -jar bin/deployer.jar deploy foo.rar geronimo-ra-1.xml java -jar bin/deployer.jar deploy foo.rar geronimo-ra-2.xml java -jar bin/deployer.jar deploy foo.rar geronimo-ra-3.xml ... Of the three approaches, I think the last is the best in that you can start and stop and manage each of the configurations independently. However the first two let you combine your configurations into one deployment unit if you'd prefer to manage them all together (and would also let you pack the geronimo-ra.xml file into the RAR if you'd prefer to).

Thursday night in the opening of "Distinctly SF Ballet" at the War Memorial Opera House, three San Francisco Ballet choreographers reprised work that ran the gamut from the elegantly presentational to a well-sculpted psychodrama and a social study of tribalism and community.
Though late to the locavore party, SF Ballet self-consciously pulled from its own pool of talent and invites us to see work in a new light — and we do.
Val Caniparoli has been a dancer with SF Ballet since 1973, and his decade-old "Ibsen's House" (2008) has worn brilliantly. It depicts five iconic couples from five revolutionary Victorian plays by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen with beautiful costuming by Sandra Woodall.
SEE RELATED: SF Ballet's 'Bright Fast Cool Blue' stutters
As though echoing recent news, these couples provide an all-too-relevant study of women quietly exploding against the suffocating control of the men in their lives, while the men seethe with frustration or rage.
Jennifer Stahl, as Mrs. Alving, was a knockout, a barely sublimated embodiment of fury and anguish, mirrored by partner Miles Thatcher, as Captain Alving. Meanwhile, corps member Kimberly Marie Olivier as the woman with the freedom to choose, Ellida, moved with fleet-footed openness no other character is allowed. While all five pairs danced beautifully (also Dores Andre, Vitor Luiz, Sofiane Sylve, Tiit Helimets, Luke Ingham, Ellen Rose Hummel and Sean Orza), their characters will come more fully alive when they plumb the meaning of each neurotic gesture to reveal the compound meaning of every swipe of the gown or stab of the chest.
Artistic Director Helgi Tomasson's calm, sparkling blue-and-silver-toned "On A Theme of Paganini" (2008) by Sergei Rachmaninov, a concertante for orchestra and solo piano (played with lush elegance by Roy Bogas), opened the program. This is Balanchinian study of flying legs and signaling arms set in group counterpoint and bravura solos, duets and trios.
Max Cauthorn, Wei Wang and Luiz were fleet powerhouses, turning and leaping. Sasha de Sola channeled her limpid technique and inner light into a prismatic kinesthetic elegance. Maria Kochetkova, although technically impeccable, seemed to be going through the motions again Thursday night, engaging neither audience nor partners, as if slightly bored; the frozen base of her neck may be what keeps her from projecting.
Ghosts figured in "Ibsen," the ghost of Balanchine lurked in Paganini, and corps de ballet member and talented young choreographer Thatcher introduced another ghost with his 2017 "Ghost in the Machine." This is not so much a bow to philosopher Gilbert Ryle's assertion that there is no transcendent thinker thinking our lives as much as it is an homage to a generation both set against itself and searching for unity.
At the dance's outset, a "West Side Story" tribalism rules through hungry dancing with 10 movers facing off in punchy, jazz-inflected action. Beneath Alexander V. Nichols' overhead design of torqued strings, as from a piano, and set to a compilation of Michael Nyman's lush romantic minimalism (including music from the film "The Piano"), Thatcher presents a paean to disenfranchised youth, absorbed in atomizing technology and yet capable of deep collaborative bonds.
While Thatcher loses the thread and sometimes indulges in reflex theatricalities, he uses the dancers' bodies as modern instruments that move through every plane, often with the rhythmic complexity of club dancers. That's a sign of local and generational change at SF Ballet. It's a welcome one.

The ensemble has existed since 2008. The name of the chamber group indicates the approach of the artists who make their music with the great passion. Unique combination of musical instruments, professional concerts famous for their interesting interpretation, copyright arrangement and a wonderful announcer are the main characteristics of the chamber group. Reaching out for the growing interest in chamber music, the artists make their attempts to adapt their repertoire to the expectations of the audience offering both classical music and well-known film and musical melodies as well as jazz and popular music standards. Apart from the concerts, the group offers 'background music', musical setting during private and business parties such as: banquets, ceremonial dinners, varnishing days, wedding receptions etc. The group offers the arrangement of the whole program or separate pieces for the special request.

|How I imagine I look at the gym.
Treadmills are like Tim Tebow: Some love them, some hate them, and others are completely indifferent and wish everyone else would shut the fuck up.
While not in love with them, I'm familiar enough with the ones at my local gym that I have given them all names. (If you haven't guessed already, I probably need some help.)
With the weather being shitty, and it being well-documented that I'm a child-like whiner when it comes to being cold, my long run this week was done indoors while the wind and rain pummeled outside. Believe me, when I read about the weather Triple T runs in, I feel like I should turn in my man-card, throw my shoes into the river, and take up competitive donut eating full time.
But I digress.
We had a beautiful sunny day earlier this week, and I was able to corral the Boys onto their bikes while I hit the track. Much to my surprise, I blasted through 12 laps (3 miles) in just over 21 minutes. Feeling buoyed by this accomplishment, I wasn't disappointed by having to do my 7-mile run indoors when, in normal British Columbia fashion, outside went from sunny to fucking horrid in record time. Heck, I even figured I'd do a couple of extra miles just because it would be fun.
God, I'm a retard sometimes.
When I hit the gym, I was crushed to see that my usual treadmill (referred to in a previous post as "My Baby") was occupied - and by a walker, no less. I resigned myself to jumping on The Mistress (get your head out of the gutter - not as exciting as you'd think). As I was tying my shoes, He-Who-Walks-At-Gym decided he'd had enough of his blistering 3.2Mph pace and gave up the treadmill I wanted.
(Okay, treadmill haters, I can hear you saying "When's the last time you had to wait for someone to get off the road, huh?" - point taken.)
I jumped on and started getting into the Zone.
Of all the Long Runs I've ever done on a treadmill (the longest was 16 miles), the Zone is essential to prevent losing your mind to inescapable boredom - looking at the ass of the guy on the stairclimber in front of me isn't as fun as you may think.
The Zone wouldn't come.
For some reason, the minute I got just over a mile in, I became The Most Popular Guy In The Gym. For the next half hour, people I know kept coming in, stopping by, saying hi, and asking questions. When you're running outside, if someone wants to talk to you they either have to forcibly stop you or try and keep up. At the gym, every single lazy asshole who wants to say their two cents strolls by, leans on the machine and starts to espouse their worldview.
The good part was that it did take my mind off the clock and keep me distracted enough - not Zone levels, but close - they probably inadvertently helped my pace, as it was like I was running faster to try and get away from them.
Once I was left alone, the rest of the run proceeded smoothly. When you hit that moment on the treadmill when the right music is playing (Kings of Leon), you're running the right pace (7.2mph), and the finest set of back-dimples in the gym gets on the stairclimber in front of you, time just seems to fly by.
The endorphins were just from the run - that's what I'm going to keep telling myself.
Next week's Long Run is scheduled to be a 10-miler - my first double-digit run of this training program. I'm hoping that I won't have to do it on the treadmill, but if those conditions can come together again (minus the chatterboxes), it won't be too bad.
Check out how Triple T did with her battle against the machine here.

The ELK is a compact, battery powered lifting cushion.
Technical Info:
Can I leave the battery on charge all the time?
Yes, and we recommend you do. The Airflo Plus may remain continuously on charge when not in use as the batteries cannot be overcharged.
Can I over inflate my lifting cushion?
No. The Airflo Plus will stop once full pressure is realized.
What happens if I get a puncture?
The incidences of puncture are rare. If a puncture does occur, then only the section of cushion with the damage would be affected - the remaining three will still operate. The lifting cushion will not burst like a balloon and there is no risk of injury to the patient from a rapid descent. If the puncture is small, then the cushion would still work though there would be an audible leak. Punctures cannot be repaired due to the pressure and load and damaged units have to be replaced.

Orders will be shipped via UPS Standard Ground unless other handling is requested or deemed more economical. Freight will be prepaid and added to the invoice. QuadMed will pay standard ground shipment costs on all orders over $150.00 for any shipment delivered in the U.S. except for Alaska and Hawaii.

Get Reacquainted with an Old Remedy: Georges Aloe Vera
All Aloes Are Not the Same
Georges Aloe Vera, which is grown under organic conditions, has over 200 beneficial components and has been shown in scientific studies to:
Reduce postoperative pain.
Help wound healing by increasing the strength of healing tissues.
Act as an anti-inflammatory agent.
Inhibit infectious diseases by stimulating the cells in the host defense mechanism.
Increase re-epithelialization in burn wounds.
Act empirically in birds as a strong benefit for emotionally stressed birds, feather pickers and birds needing an immune tonic.
How to Use Aloe Mist for Feathers and Skin Conditions
Mix 1 Tablespoon Georges Aloe Vera oral liquid with 1 pint (2 cups) RO (Reverse Osmosis) or Britta filtered water*, or trusted, premium commercial drinking water and add 2 drops WooliteTM (wetting agent safe dilution).Store in glass and apply 3 times a day with a fine mister.
* Most tap water has agricultural (fertilizer, weed killers, insecticides), pharmaceutical or microplastic contaminants.
How to Make an Aloe Vera Drink
Add 2 Tablespoons George's Aloe Vera liquid to 2 cups RO, Britta-filtered water or trusted, premium commercial drinking water. Store and serve in a glass bowl or water bottle. Use as drinking water for birds needing support in fighting any illness or high stress situation; it is especially effective for GI upsets of any kind.
This therapy should be discontinued or the solution should be diluted further if the bird becomes depressed or lethargic. If a bird does not improve within 48 hours of initiating therapy, the preparation should be considered ineffective and discontinued.

Water and Words
I am sure many have heard or read articles about experiments made by the late Dr. Masaru Emoto. His work clearly showed how written and spoken words applied to glass jars of rice in water altered the molecular structure of the water?
Samples of the water before and after the test were flash frozen with dramatic results.
One jar with written words attached like peace and love were compared to a jar with words like violence and hate. The peace and love jar of rice in water would remain clear and pure for a long time, whilst the jar with violence and hate would rapidly darken and decay
A similar test you can try yourself is by cutting a freshly picked apple in half and placing the two pieces in separate glass jars, again using the written words followed by a daily verbal citation of the words. You will discover one half of the apple stays fresh whilst the other half decomposes quickly.
There were skeptics who carried out similar tests to debunk Dr. Emoto's research. Some proved him right and some proved him wrong. Why the discrepancy? The ones who failed to see positive results said the words half-heartedly with doubt, hesitation or joking with disbelief. Positive visualization or to use a better phrase, the power of intention, is a very important factor that must be included to obtain the best results. This process is relevant to all areas of our lives.
Happiness - Jewelry and Words
There has been much discussion about pendants or bracelets people wear. Charm bracelets were fashionable during the late half of the last century and more recently, friendship bracelets became vogue. Making your own words with alphabetic beads or engraved jewelry with messages and words like, dream, love, believe and achieve has reportedly brought great results to those who have faith in the power of words.
More recent and very popular was a pendant embossed with the letter Q?
Celebrities like Oprah, Tony Robbins and Madonna have proclaimed its magical powers!
You may like to know that the symbol Q when used in physics represents electric charge. It can also be used to represent dynamic pressure, fusion energy gain factor, heat, momentum transfer and volumetric flow rate. Using Western Numerology, the letter Q is represented by the number 8. In China, the number 8 is worshipped as the most powerful number.
Using Name Reality, the letter Q is positive and life-giving as it suppresses negative. It influences career, health and travel. In times of illness, the letter Q will aid recovery. In business or career, it will produce a gain.
Use Words with Water to Create Health, Happiness and Abundance
Considering the human body is more than 60% water, my tip of the day is for you to honor and bless your drinking water. (In fact, bless everything) The following is a process I use and recommend to my clients which you are most welcome to copy and modify to produce your own documented instructions, especially if you have specific health issues.
I purchase my drinking water in reasonable quality 5-gallon containers. You can boil and filter your rain or tap water and some of you may have expensive filtration machines. My personal choice is to add 10 to 20 drops hydrogen peroxide, 35% organic food grade, into the 5-gallon container. I purchase my hydrogen peroxide here, http://purehealthdiscounts.com Oxygen is life-giving and often depleted in water. The energy from a few drops will run although I suggest you research and satisfy yourself before using hydrogen peroxide. Suggested link: https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/hydrogen-peroxide-medical-miracle/?gl=5a4bb824595c9704591757c0
I then place a binchotan charcoal stick in the water with these words attached to the container. Water has memory, so make sure you erase past negative memory and upload new vibrant memory, just like cleaning a computer.
It is commanded, erase negative memory in this water and replace with love, happiness and joy. Any contamination in this water detrimental to the health of my physical body will be absorbed into the binchotan charcoal stick for future safe recycling back to the Universe. The energy in this water is now pure, healthy and bright.
This is my desire, my wish and my command. It is done, it is done, it is done.
I thank you with love and gratitude. Lyon G. Payley Zonamyari
Later, I bottle water in handy size containers with this label attached.
This purified drinking water enhances all areas of my life. This water is abundant with love, health, prosperity and well-being. Every time I drink this water I recharge myself with beautiful vibrant energy bringing all the great things I desire into fruition.
Thank you. With Love and Gratitude. Lyon G. Payley Zonamyari
I also print cards with this or similar information and laminate to use as a coaster for my coffee cup! If you feel a bout of Flu or illness coming, modify the words accordingly to boost immune and aid recovery. If you have personal issues draining the life out of you, activate your water to recharge both your mind body and soul. Seeking abundance, create it with water using the three steps!
Documentation - Activation - Confirmation
The written words are asking for health and happiness from you, for you. Therefore, I put with love and gratitude including my full names on every command. If the water container is to be shared by the family or other people, it is not necessary to write your name on the container, but I recommend writing it on your personal cup or bottle. Needless to say, activate and confirm. When I drink from my cup or bottle a few positive words reflecting health happiness and abundance automatically run through my mind (confirmation). Reprogram Your Mind- Reprogram Your Life!

President Obama signs proclamation
On January 29, 2016, President Obama signed a proclamation declaring February 2016 as National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention month. You can help make a difference by sharing the DASH website and Facebook page with family, friends, teachers, counselors and schools. Together we can help teens recognize the signs of teen dating abuse and learn what makes a healthy relationship. This month and throughout the coming year let's let everyone know that Dating Abuse Stops Here.

She regained her confidence after an abusive relationship
On the eve of Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention month, we salute Brittaney Shane, who realized that her ex-boyfriend had been emotionally abusive to her and found the strength to love herself again.
Her story has been going viral on Facebook after she wrote this compelling post:
"You always told me I didn't look good with long hair and that you preferred girls with short hair. So I kept my hair cut above my shoulders at all times. You laughed at me and told me I looked ridiculous when I dyed my hair red when we were together. So a week later I dyed it back blonde."
"You would always point out if I was wearing too much makeup. (Winged eyeliner and mascara most of the time) So I just stopped wearing it. You told me tattoos and piercings were tacky and ugly. And would try to take out my belly button ring every time you saw it. So I took out my piercings and didn't get any more tattoos.
You pointed out my stretch marks every chance you got. So I did my best to keep them hidden."
"You pointed out every time I looked like I had gained weight. So I started eating less every day. You pointed out every single flaw I had. So I lost every bit of confidence I had.
I did everything I could to be what you wanted. I did everything you told me to do. It still wasn't good enough. You left me for a younger prettier girl. Someone you could mold and shape into what you wanted. Like you tried to do with me. And up until a few months ago I blamed myself for everything that happened. You blamed me too.
But finally I started to see the truth."
"You weren't out of my league. I was out of yours. I wasn't the one who wasn't good enough for you.
You were the one who wasn't good enough for me. You couldn't accept me for who I was. When I took you the way you were."
