Don't Try…Do!
The theme with a few of my clients recently seemed to stem around "try" and this is my return thought:
If you are taking action, even a little bit, everyday, you are getting closer and closer to your dreams. So in my book that is more than trying, that is doing. Give yourself credit for doing, not trying.
To quote Yoda "NO! Try Not! Do or Do Not, There is no try."
Maybe it is just me but I seem to have an adverse reaction when I hear the word "Try". I will try and make it. I heard someone tried something like that and they failed. I try and I try and I try….
Ah! Stop Trying and start Doing!
Try isn't a very empowering word is it? It feels weak and perhaps just a nice way of saying NO or an "easy" way to have an excuse. What is an excuse?
I recently saw this picture that sums up the physical reaction I feel.
Stop lying to yourself and to the ones you try with.
Whenever I hear "try" from someone it is pretty much a "No" in my book and if they show up, or come through then it is a pleasant surprise! Otherwise I don't expect whatever they are "trying" to do will actually come to fruition.
So how do we change our language to not incorporate such a weak word, that really doesn't give us power and essentially is a nice way of saying "no", aka not speaking our truth and essentially is an excuses or Lie?
1. If you really want to see how often you say the word "try", keep a piece of paper with you and for a week (or maybe you will get the lesson in a day) every time you hear the word try and every time you hear yourself say try mark it down on the paper. One column for you and one column for hearing the word from others.
2. Now that you are aware of the word try, catch yourself either before you say it or right after you say it and replace it with a new word, such as "will" or "will not". Yes you will be forced to make a decision here. Instead of "I will try to make the game tonight", change to "I (will/will not) make it to the game tonight". If you can't quite make it there start with "As of right now it does not appear I will make the game, but if anything changes I will let you know". Essentially you are almost saying the same thing as try but this way is being more upfront that you are leaning towards the "will not" vs "will" show up. Granted if you can go straight to "will or will not" both you and the other person in the situation will know exactly where you stand.
Now you are not a horrible person if you say try but I would encourage you to test yourself as well as start building the intestinal fortitude to speak your truth. You don't have to go to every event, and help everyone with everything. By taking try out of your vocabulary it forces you to make decision. When you make decisions you are no longer "wishy-washy", you have strength and direction. Trust me, people's feelings won't be as hurt if you say you won't do something vs if you say you will try and then don't. You will be more loved and respected because people will know where you stand and you will know that for your self as well. There is strength in that knowledge.
Looking forward to enjoying a world that removes the word TRY and speaks their truth.
Now go out, take action and make things happen!
All the best,

What is Hike With Heart? I hike for personal enjoyment, but I also choose to hike for a good cause: usually raising money for charity. I also practice Leave No Trace so I can leave the outdoor spaces I visit a little cleaner than when I came. The overall experience of hiking for something bigger than myself is what #HikeWithHeart means to me.

It's been a busy week. A whole lot of nothing as far as I am concerned. But apparently, as Mom tells it, I was as bad as a bad pug can be the other day at the nail spa. Hey, she can't say I didn't warn them. When I kick and scratch, wriggle and squirm, you can pretty much assume that I am not in the mood. But they persisted, and so did I. Both of the good dogs were all done, and two chicks couldn't even reel me in.
Mom told Dad she could hear the scuffle going on. She normally doesn't watch because I tend to be better when she doesn't. Not this time. First she heard, "Kim, a little help". Couple minutes later "this girl is stubborn". So she peeked around the corner, cuz she knew it had to be me making all the fuss. I was being so bad! I was writhing around, squirming to get loose, but those girls were stubborn too! Let's just say they don't call me WILL-ma for nothing. Those girls worked for their tip, that is one thing for sure. Today's pictures are not from the spa, Mom was way too embarrassed to document that whole deal on film. These are some shots from a walk in what we thought was a new park, and turned out to be a cemetery being expanded. It was nice and quiet.
See, it doesn't matter how you act, they are still compelled to do great things for you. We even got some whippy.

"Yourself"- poem
Do you even remember
who you are?
are you still
who you used to be?
but who's "yourself", anyway?
have you ever known?
It's not the you
who struggles
to impress the ones
who aren't even impressive.
It's not the you
who fakes smiles
to pretend you're alive
in your own cage.
It's not the you
who laughs to jokes
about your very own
It's you,
the one who lives
not the one
who fakes them.
("Yourself", Anne Maria)

Araska is a rock, actually that is a lie, Araska is a fictional rock, in a fictional sea, in a fictional world, the only thing that could be said about is that, if said, world, sea and rock were to exist, then you would have a nice view of a fictional harbour.

More weird signs...
So this sign indicates where to flee in an emergency, and clearly that direction is up. What is a little strange about this, is that the sign wasn't in the basement, it was near the top of the main turret of Castle Sant'Angelo, and the only thing that sign would lead you to is the room... clearly an effective place to flee a fire from, because fire doesn't burn up...
The actually vacation images are getting sorted and put together right now, just having a few upload issues. IPhoto is not the best software I've seen.

You will need a quality that is good driver to correct and control whatever you computer devices and Canon printer driver download fits the bill totally. A printer driver is needed to be communicator and translator for the operation of this devices that are varied for the far better comprehensibility and result of the computer.
Why do it is needed by you?
There are all sorts printers including ink jet, colour laser ones as well as the version that is old of matrix. As well as for many of these there is the necessity of content and format of print that is submit the proper execution that is comprehensible. And for the computer which have Windows, then printer drivers are used for printing role. Canon printer driver download is certainly one such software that delivers the print to the system of procedure. It offers an apt solution that is organizational your printing procedures.
One of the things you do purchase the Canon printer, is that problems will always be afflicting the printer, and most of the problems can be hardware, or they can be based on the software that you need to know when. Whenever your issues are the hardware for the printer, there is really nothing much you certainly can do and all you truly can do is always to just deliver it back once again to the people whom sold it for your requirements for the replacement or even a fix service.
Whenever taking a look at the computer software side of things, what you should understand is that whenever considering this, there may be two sides towards the problem. It could the fact the software uploaded into Windows is defective, and therefore you cannot navigate the features associated with the printer, or, the very fact that the particular drivers would be the problem, and one thing you must know is that driver problems are really quite common whenever you imagine printers and there are some ways that you are able to resolve printer issues that get to do utilizing the drivers similar to this.
This is the reason there exists a recommendation that is general you 'must' have the newest drivers of your Canon printer and there is real good canon ij scan utility download windows 10 reason for this. For just one, you might be guaranteed that the engineers over at Canon are now doing one thing, plus in therefore, they're really improving the functionality and reliability of the printer, this means you will a much easier time when you are trying to install the printer onto your computer that you will run into less conflict problems and.
Additionally, this means there would continually be problems regarding the very first run of the printer plus the drivers, meaning that the 1.0 label of this driver that you're making use of is often tagged towards the undeniable fact that Canon is really trying out the printers on a selection of systems all around the globe, and their smart record system with new information, would allow them to tweak and improve the printer in order that there would be no conflicts and crashes when brand new users are now utilising the printer. You should check on their website or other collective websites that help to get these drivers and post them up, which eases the procedure, canon ij scan utility download windows 10 particularly when you've got numerous products associated with brand that is same. In any case, it always is very important to also have the most recent versions of the drivers you are able to avoid stuff like crashes and dysfunctions within the printer, because as it is, the printer is a very specific product meant to do one thing and one thing only, and if it does not perform, that is a problem for you that you need to be able to make sure that everything is in working order and. How a canon printer drivers that are latest can resolve printer problems boasts plenty reasons and proportions to it, therefore the action of doing it is smooth. All it will take is a quick hop online and a easy download.
If you have recently purchased a brand new computer and so are having difficulty printing documents to your Canon printer, or the printer merely is no long recognized by your machine, then you are likely experiencing an out-of-date or corrupted Canon printer driver. Usually, a simple uninstall and reinstall of the pc software that was included with the printer should rectify the situation. Often, we misplace those discs after perhaps not needing them for years, or our machine that is new has surpassed the printer and also it simply does need become refreshed via an updated driver.

In a recent interview with WGRZ, former WWE superstar Lex Luger spoke about how he was leading a double life during his later years in the pro-wrestling business and also discussed the use of steroids in wrestling.In case you didn't know…
Although Luger spent most part of his career wrestling for World Championship Wrestling (WCW), he did work for a couple of years in the WWE as well. He did not win any championships during his tenure but his greatest claim to fame was his joint victory in the 1994 Royal Rumble alongside Bret Hart. Apart from that,
'The Total Package' is also remembered for successfully body-slamming the near 600-pound late WWE superstar, Yokozuna.The heart of the matterTalking about the latter part of his wrestling career, Lex Luger admitted that he was living a double life and hurt the people who were closest to him.
According to him, he seemed to be having a perfect life from the outside but he was actually just trying to fill the emptiness inside.
The fact that wasn't getting enough of money, women and partying pushed him into dark paths for a certain period.This is what Luger had to say:"I was living a double life, and ended up hurting those closest to me, and while my personal life, while it seemed that I had it all, 'The Total Package,' everything going on in the ring, and then the million dollars that had been going on.
There was an emptiness that I was trying to fill and outside of the ring there was never enough money, there was never enough women, there was never enough partying, and as a results, I went down some pretty dark paths for awhile there.
"The former WCW World Heavyweight Champion revealed that steroids were prevalent in both football and wrestling before and during his career.
He opined that athletes agreed to use steroids in those days because they did not want to be left behind those who were already doing it. Luger stated:"It was [used], in both football and in wrestling, earlier on, and in my career. It was very prevalent then and looking back on it, we all always wished there was a level playing field, but it was kind of like 'work hard, play hard' if the rest of the guys are taking it, you didn't want the guys to have an edge."

We face it every single time when we travel via train to any destination & it happens only in India. But what happened recently has set an example & opened eyes of Indian railways.
A Delhi resident V Vijay has filed a complaint with consumer court stating that he traveled by Dakshin Express on March 30, 2013 from Visakhapatnam to New Delhi, his reserved seat was occupied by someone else.
Kumar, who claims to be suffering from knee-joint pain, had booked a lower berth.
It was alleged by Kumar that some unauthorised persons entered into the compartment and occupied his seat/berth at Bina Station in Madhya Pradesh. It was further alleged that the unauthorised passengers created lot of nuisance and caused inconvenience to him as well as to his co-passengers.
He tried to complain to the TTE or any other railway official but no one could be found, Kumar had claimed in his complaint. Later on the state consumer commission has asked the Indian Railways to pay Rs 75,000 to a man for the inconvenience he suffered when his reserved seat was occupied by unauthorised persons for most part of his journey.
The decision came after the Railways failed to appear before it saying it was guilty of deficient service.

Lisbon: MotoGP world champion Jorge Lorenzo won the Portuguese Grand Prix from pole position for the third year in a row on Sunday after a battle with Yamaha team mate Valentino Rossi.
Outgoing champion Rossi led the early part of the race, despite Spaniard Lorenzo taking the top slot on the grid after a rain-hit qualifying, but was passed by his team mate after 17 of the 28 laps at Estoril.
Lorenzo, who won the title in Malaysia earlier this month, then powered away to take his first race win since the Czech Grand Prix in August and eighth of the season by an 8.629-second margin.
Honda`s Andrea Dovizioso finished third behind fellow-Italian Rossi.
Australian Casey Stoner crashed out after four laps when he lost the rear of the Ducati and slid into the gravel trap at turn 13.
American Ben Spies, on the Tech3 Yamaha, suffered a dislocated left ankle when he fell on his way to the starting grid.
With one race remaining, Lorenzo has an unassailable 358 points and is on course to overhaul Rossi`s 2008 record tally of 373 in a single season.
Spaniard Dani Pedrosa, who returned after missing the last three races due to injury, finished eighth and has 236 points with Rossi on 217 and in with a chance of taking the overall runner-up slot in the final round in Valencia next weekend.

How to Clean a Paint Palette. As much as you may try to keep your palette clean, it's easy to forget occasionally and end up with a palette covered in rock hard dried oil paints. Dried oil paint is never easy to clean, but with some turpentine and a razor blade you can get it back to a usable state again.
Things You'll Need
- Well-ventilated room
- Clean rags
- Turpentine
- Razor blade
Video of the Day
Wipe the palette clean after each painting session to prevent oil paint from crusting onto the palette in the first place. You can use some turpentine or linseed oil and a rag to remove all paint residue.
Start with a well ventilated room. Open windows in the room and set up a window fan, if you have one. Breathing in turpentine fumes is hazardous to your health.
Wipe up any excess paint that hasn't yet dried onto the palette.
Use a clean rag to dab turpentine onto the dried oil paint.
Allow the turpentine to soak into the dried oil paint for about 30 minutes.
Scrape the softened dried paint off the palette with a razor blade.
Consider using disposable palettes, if you find that you often forget to clean up well after a painting session. Cheap plastic palettes can be purchased from craft stores, or you can cover a wooden palette with plastic wrap. You could also try a pad of palette paper.
Soak a paint palette covered in dried acrylic paint in fabric softener. The paint will soften and come off very easily.

A spot of nepotism on my blog today as this blog is about my brother Christian's business, why not!! Besides designing Italian kitchens by day, completely gutting and renovating his historical home he also designs leather bags, wallets, egg cup holders and salt and pepper grinders! As you can see he has a lot of creative talent spilling out of him. And let me not forget he makes his very own chilli sauce called Ramiriqui that he supplies to a number of outlets. It is getting closer and closer to Xmas and if you are starting to think along the lines of what to buy your husband look no further, his leather bag and wallets make amazing gifts.

In Malaysia, the prevalence of obesity is at 14%, which is nearly triple that of China (5.7%), Japan (5%) and Philippines (6.3%) and double that of Singapore (7.1%). Nurses have a role to play in educating and promoting a healthy lifestyle to the public. Thus, demonstrating and embodying healthy living practices is crucial for nurses.
Maintain a healthy diet
With a tight work schedule, it is not surprising when nurses have to frequently skip meals. However, this triggers the body to consume more afterwards, which may even lead to an increase in weight.
Long working hours (eight to 12 hours per shift), increased workload and shortage of staffs are factors that may lead to nurses eating fewer than three meals a day. According to the American Cancer Society, eating five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables is ideal. Additionally, eating refined whole grains, limiting red meat consumption and limiting daily alcohol intake will also lead to better health.
For nurses who work night shifts, bringing healthy snacks from home can be used to boost energy instantly, instead of relying on the vending machines provided.
Deal with stress
Stress is often prevalent in the nursing profession. However, not dealing with it effectively may have adverse effects on the nurse's health.
Constant pressure can lead to chronic stress, which is linked to depression, cancer and obesity. Additionally, eating as a means to reduce stress and pressure will lead to emotional eating, where calorie dense foods are consumed.
Nurses can include stress management and mindfulness techniques when dealing with stressful situations. Programmes that emphasise on general health, diet counselling, wellness campaigns, physical fitness programmes and healthy food choices can also be incorporated.
Get enough sleep
Shift changes and night shifts are common in the life of a nurse. However, when an individual's circadian rhythm or body clock is interrupted, it will be difficult to get the recommended eight hours of sleep daily. With a lack of adequate rest, the body will lead one to eat more to gain calories for energy.
In view of this, employers are often advised to provide a quiet place for the nurse to take a short nap during night shifts. When organising a shift schedule, the shift should be rotated clockwise; for instance, nights to days, days to evenings and evenings to nights. This follows the body's natural circadian rhythm, instead of going against it.
Nurses also need to take up the responsibility of ensuring that they get adequate sleep. Nurses could be aware of useful tips to help facilitate sleeping, such as sleeping in a dark and quiet room, avoiding caffeine and staying away from electronic devices.
Get active
Although nursing is a career that can be physically demanding, experts say that walking down long hallways during eight to 12 hour shifts is still inadequate physical exercise to prevent obesity. The American Heart Association recommends that nurses allocate at least 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity five or more times per week.
Without proper actions, nurses will not be able to effectively promote healthy living. By addressing each of the factors above and the solutions, nurses can lead by example and encourage the public to adopt healthier habits, so as to reduce obesity rates. MIMS

Is there any Internations group in Lugansk? (Kiev)
Hello everybody,
is there anyone from Lugansk? I am going there soon and would love to meet some people. I am originally from Lugansk, but I spent many years abroad. Really have no friends in Lugansk any more.

Austin in Travis County, Texas — The American South (West South Central)
Mount Bonnell
Frontiersman W.A.A. "Bigfoot" Wallace killed an Indian he met face to face while crossing a narrow ledge 50 feet above river, 1839. He also took refuge in a Mount Bonnell cave to recover from "flux", but was missing so long his sweetheart eloped.
In the mid-1800's Mormons built a mill on the Colorado River at foot of Mount Bonnell. Mill was destroyed by flood and the Mormons moved on west.
Mount Bonnell was site of picnics and outings in 1850's and 1860's. As it is today. Legend has it that an excursion to the place in the 1850's inspired the popular song "Wait for the Wagon and We'll All Take a Ride". As a stunt in 1898, Miss Hazel Keyes slid down a cable stretched from the top of Mount Bonnell to south bank of then Lake McDonald below.
Erected 1969 by State Historical Survey Committee.

Additional comments.
1. Mount Bonnell
Mount Bonnell is often described as the highest point in Austin. While this may have been true in historic times when Austin was much smaller, today Mount Bonnell's elevation at its peak (marker quotes 775 feet above sea level) is less than that of several surrounding peaks, e.g. Mt. Barker, and in

I suppose the best answer to this later expression is to answer the question with a question. "Why is anything worth accomplishing?" After all, nothing man does truly lasts. And yet despite this eternity is, as the bible say, in ours hearts - the need to understand and feel connected to the past and the need to feel we are making some contribution to the future. For many art -- its study, its creation, and its appreciation, is the greatest tool (apart, perhaps, from family) in our accomplishing this.
"Art," it has been said, "is in the eyes of the beholder." And this is true. Time, experience, culture and community all apprise our judgement of art -- what it is and how it is to be valued. And some appreciation of art is common to all societies of men. As novelist Jane Austen wittingly commented on one such - the art of dance.
Sir William: "Do you dance, Mr. Darcy?"
Darcy: "Not if I can help it!"
Sir William: There is nothing like dancing,.. I consider it as one of the first refinements of polished societies."
Mr. Darcy: "Certainly, sir; and it has the advantage also of being in vogue amongst the less polished societies of the world; every savage can dance."
Point, set and match to Mr. Darcy.
Yet even if we agree that "art" itself is deemed of some universal value, we still may disagree on what exactly "art" is.
Are folks arts - and by this I mean those created by average, everyday, people the equal of "Fine Art" - that which is created by the especially gifted and talented; that which is based on study and thought more than a mere outpouring of human feeling?
For many years folk arts were, from today's standpoint, undervalued. In part this is because in most societies the common man himself was, by today's standards, undervalued. The world, in these earlier appraisals, belonged to the titled few. And in this world view art was to be created by them, or at least for them and them alone.
This changed in part during the so-called Age of Enlightenment, but it is still not a settled affair. Nor, in my judgement, should it be. The principle of equality under law - that all men are created equal in their natural right to pursue life, liberty and their own happiness - this I think worthy of universal esteem. But the idea that all men's minds are equal and that thus all their creations are of equal worth - this I do not believe holds up to thoughtful scrutiny.
A favorite story of mine -- one that captures the changes in thinking that comprised the Age of Enlightenment -- concerns a man who in my eyes has few peers among great artists - the composer and musician Beethoven.
Beethoven was a man of common birth and equaly common manners. He was seen by his "betters" as coarse and brusque. But he insisted that his real worth -- his "nobility" as it were -- was not to be judged upon such shallow grounds.
The story goes that once, when walking with his friend, the esteemed writer and thinker, Goethe, a nobleman passed by. Goethe bowed, as was expected in their society. Beethoven did not. When questioned by his somewhat shocked friend Beethoven is said to have responded "My nobility is here" as he pointed to his head.
I'd argue that his music -- his "art" -- proved him correct. Who was that "nobleman" to whom Beethoven had been expected by both law and custom to bow? Is he remembered for anything at all? What, I wonder, if anything did he do with his life? What, if anything, did he pass on to posterity?
Today few in our society would argue with Beethoven's right to insist on his own worth. But we do argue with his the basis on which he made his judgment: The worth of his creative genius.
Is Beethoven's "art" really "greater" than that of an everyday folk artist?
This is not a small and unimportant question. At least not to me. And in this I know that I am not at all attuned with our times.
Not that modern society truly believes in "equality." No, what it assumes is that each of us is somehow obligated to accept and call "good" what our society accepts as such. In the visual arts this includes paintings where the paint has been simply thrown at a canvas without forethought or design, coarse renderings of common objects such as soup cans and -- most of all -- of anything that shows the spirit of sneering at the values upon which western society was built.
In music this means acclaiming the greatness of songs without melody or harmony and lyrics that are little more than adolescent prattling.
In dance -- an art form to which I am sadly virtually blind -- it seems to mean equating gyration with carefully thought through movement requiring equal measures of grace and control.
I personally value art too highly to accept any of these common points of view. And this is nothing new for me. Even as a student in my late teens and very early twenties I infuriated some of my teachers at the N.Y. School of Visual Arts by expressing similarly outrageous views.
Arts for arts sake? Yes. But more important art for our sakes. For the sake of values, meaning and the passing on of the best of man's past and present to an increasingly uncertain future.

Standing on the lower reaches of the River Loire, between Orléans and the Atlantic coast - the surrounding district, the traditional province of Touraine, is known for its wines, for the alleged perfection (as perceived by some speakers and for historical reasons) of its local spoken French, and for the Battle of Tours (732). The city is also the end-point of the annual Paris–Tours cycle race.

The Forbidden Library by Django Wexler
|The Forbidden Library by Django Wexler

|Summary: Energetic and absorbing middle grade fantasy where magicians are Readers and spells are Books. The central character is satisfyingly spunky and I loved the way no other character is to be trusted. At all.

Alice is a little girls whose feet are planted firmly in the here and now. She's sensible. And studious. And practical. So when, one night, she overhears a conversation between her father and a vicious little fairy, she's more than a little shaken. But before she has had time to process this worrying event, Alice's father has rushed away on a business trip. Within days, the news comes that his ship has foundered and there are no survivors.
Alice finds herself packed off to stay with a mysterious uncle her father never told her about. Geryon is a strange man and his house is even stranger. Never-seen servants prepare food and clear it away. And the servants you can see are strange - Mr Black sinister, Emma an automaton. There's only one rule: Alice must not enter the Library...
... so, of course, she does.
And inside the Library, Alice discovers a strange world where magicians are Readers and spells are Books. Can she use this world to find the fairy she saw talking to her father? Can she discover whether or not her father is still alive? When it will take all her courage and all her nascent Reading skills to even survive?
As the plot unfolds, it becomes clear that the world of Readers is one of self-interest, double deals and shifting alliances. Alice can't ally herself with the goodies because there really aren't any goodies. The people she meets might risk their lives to save hers but might just as easily try to kill her. It all depends on the situation. So Alice can't trust anyone. I loved this in a book for middle grade readers where the delineation between good and evil is usually so clear.
Despite this, Alice is a quick thinker and manages to create temporary alliances that get her out of some immediate holes. She also forges the beginnings of genuine friendships, particularly with Ashes, the half-cat, and Isaac, the apprentice Reader. But what gets Alice through is her singlemindedness. She's focused on a single goal: finding out what happened to her father. And this means that she is able to navigate the shifting sands of the Library much better than others expect her to. But of course, in the world of faction fantasy, this pluck and determination also makes her a rich prize for the main players.
I thoroughly enjoyed The Forbidden Library. It's rich and dense and creative. Alice is a great - and stubborn! - heroine and the supporting cast is delicious. It serves up a great mix of the expected tropes and settings offered by middle grade fantasy but it also subverts some so it feels fresh and new. I'm looking forward to book two.
If The Forbidden Library appeals to you, then you might also enjoy Mariah Mundi (The Midas Box) by G P Taylor.

Quote Of The Day
Quote of the Day: "OK, so the IRS finally admits it targeted groups for their political leanings. Now what about those people who did it and lied about it, requiring years of expensive litigation? Isn't this what prisons are for? And while we're at it, since the IRS has done it before and most assuredly will do it again, can we please get rid of the IRS?" – Lawrence Reed

Benefits of Hiring the Best Roofer When winter is over, you thought that all your worries are already gone. When you see that the walls and the edges of your home are already jarred can be a problem. Taking a closer look into the wall and you notice that the paint is already peeling and then you can see some traces of moisture on the edges. Some people would see it and would overlook it, saying that it is normal that paint is peeling off but it is not normal actually. And you will just go about your day like nothing happened. You should have called a professional to deal with the issue but you rather ignore it. You should have called a reputable roofer already. You should have caught on to the sign that it was telling you that you need your roof repaired. If you leave that problem alone, you will regret it because it would lead to major issues. Since you left the small peeling alone, it will expand and will make your home ugly and the expenses for the additional repairs will be more than expected if you just act sooner. You should really try and get a good roofer for the roof repair. You should consider hiring the best roofer for your repairs. But before you hire anyone, you should consider a couple of factors because the best decision is needed. You will be considering the budget first, you need to know just how much you are thinking about spending for the repairs. But do not worry because there are a lot of guides that will help you take the process step by step. You also have to think about searching for a competent roofer that will be able to provide the best service for your roof, you also have to deal with why your roof will need some repairs. You as the homeowner must know why you need roof repairs, when you begin to suspect it, you have to look for it. You will also have to think if the roof you have is already too old and has already given the best service already. You should analyze that thing, easy. You need to know that finding the source of the problem is important so that the roofer can deal with the issue from the main point so that it can be stopped. If you use roofing materials on relatively low-sloped roofs it will actually cause this kind of issue. There are a lot of reasons why you get roof damage, some reasons like due to the roof design or the deterioration of the materials can be serious.

ICYMI: Here's a Bunch of Philanthropists Who'd Also Like to Give More in Taxes/
Giving to the opera is fine, but nothing beats contributing to the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance.
More than 40 wealthy New York residents affirmed their willingness to pay higher state taxes in a letter published in The Guardian. The list of signatories includes a number of prominent figures from the New York City philanthropic community. Their call for a more progressive income tax structure relies on research from the Fiscal Policy Institute, which concludes that the current system (a "mildly progressive" one) doesn't adequately offset low- and middle-income spending on sales and property taxes. As a result, the top 1 percent shoulders an 8.1 percent tax burden while the rest of society must pay average rates over 10 percent.
The Fiscal Policy Institute and Responsible Wealth put together the letter.
Although philanthropic giving is widespread in areas like education and the arts, funders have fewer avenues to directly support public spending, like for mass transit. Lewis Cullman, whose giving has benefitted the arts, sciences and education, said, "Those of us in the top 1 percent of incomes have a particular responsibility to contribute to the public sector at a higher marginal tax rate than everyone else." Cullman expressed a desire to help pay for things like public schools and physical infrastructure—items usually outside the scope of private giving.
The letter defends the proposal as a matter of patriotism and pride in New York State as well as a means to push back against rising income inequality. At a time of national disquiet over income and wealth disparities and private giving in politics, progressive voices from the "1 percent" may ease the tension. In addition to Cullman, notable philanthropists who signed the letter include:
- Abigail Disney, documentary filmmaker and granddaughter of Roy O. Disney, who co-founded his brother Walt's company.
- Barbara Fleischman, philanthropist and wife of late art dealer Lawrence Fleischman.
- Agnes Gund, arts philanthropist and former president of the New York Museum of Modern Art.
- Catherine Gund, daughter of Agnes Gund (above), documentary filmmaker, and trustee of the George Gund Foundation.
- Leo Hindery, chairman of InterMedia Partners and education philanthropist.
- Marion Hunt, trustee and program officer for the Roy A. Hunt Foundation.
- Joshua Mailman, impact investor and long-time philanthropist.
- Jan Nicholson, president of the Nicholson Foundation and the Grable Foundation.
- Steven C. Rockefeller, fourth-generation member of the Rockefeller family, longtime trustee of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, and supporter of environmental causes.
- Sarah Stranahan, board member of the Needmor Fund and co-founder of the New Economy Coalition.
- Elspeth Gilmore, who famously held a sign reading "Rich Kid for Redistribution" at Occupy Wall Street and was executive director of Resource Generation, an organization that supports ways for wealthy younger people to distribute wealth more equitably.
- Karen Pittelman, who used a $3 million trust to found the Chahara Foundation and co-founded the Trans Justice Funding Project.
- Jessie Spector, current executive director of Resource Generation.

Summary:This film focuses on the interaction between 5-year-old Alexandria and Roy, a Hollywood stuntman in the early days of film. The two are residents of a rehabilitation hospital, and both are recovering from falls they've taken: he's paralyzed from the waist down as a result of a failed stunt; she's broken her humerus as the result of a fall she's taken in an orange orchard. (A child in a migrant family, she's been tasked, at 5 years of age—presumably out of economic necessity—with climbing ladders to pick oranges.) Having accidentally intercepted an affectionate note—Alexandria's child-missive—meant for the kindly but preoccupied nurse Evelyn, paralyzed Roy befriends the girl and quickly wins her over by telling her the wondrous tale of a masked bandit and his companions, all of whom have been betrayed by the evil emperor Odious, and all of whom are united in their quest for vengeance against the ruler. While Roy narrates the story, we see it take place through Alexandria's eyes, and the characters she envisions are drawn from people in her life. The role of the heroic masked bandit she assigns to Roy himself, blended to a poignant degree with her deceased father. Alexandria sometimes interrupts and asks questions about or challenges the story's development, whereupon Roy makes adjustments: it's clear that the story is a co-constructed project. Roy has, however, become increasingly despondent over his paralyzed condition and over the fact that his fiancée has broken off the engagement as a result of Roy's condition. As time goes on, Roy uses his unfolding story as a means of manipulating Alexandria to retrieve morphine from the hospital dispensary. He tries and fails to commit suicide with the pills that Alexandria supplies. In the process, he winds up bringing about a severe injury to the child. Filled with remorse and guilt, Roy alters his story such that it can be a source of separation between him and the girl: it becomes cruel and violent, and suggests that the hero is a weak, inglorious imposter who deserves to die. The anguished Alexandria protests, demanding that Roy change the story. Roy refuses, insisting that "It's my story." But Alexandria retorts, "It's mine, too." And Roy relents. The masked bandit of the story is redeemed, and Roy himself is as well. The film closes first with Roy, Alexandria, the hospital patients and staff watching the film in which Roy's acting had led to his accident. As the scene approaches the point where the accident had occurred, Roy feels understandable anxiety; but the film has of course been edited. Roy is relieved, but turns to Alexandria, in the hopes that she is not terrified. He finds her beaming. Then the film we are watching, The Fall, shifts to a rapid series of black-and-white footage of stunts—the effect is reminiscent of the love scenes gathered at the end of Cinema Paradiso—narrated by the marveling Alexandria. Each clip features a person in imminent, catastrophic danger—who is then impossibly rescued at the last second by fortunate chance. As Alexandria blows us kisses through a character who is falling backward, we are left in a state of bewildered gratitude over this strange gift of stories we human beings offer each other—stories that assure us over and over again how, confronted with the calamities we see no way of escaping, we are nonetheless saved.

Summary:A rare patient narrative from 1812 describes a mastectomy performed before the introduction of anesthesia. This letter from Frances d'Arblay (1752-1840) (née Frances [Fanny] Burney), addressed to her older sister, Esther, details her operation in Paris by one of Napoleon's surgeons.In her childhood and youth, Fanny Burney moved in the best London society; she was a friend of Dr. Johnson who admired her. She served five years at the court of George III and Queen Charlotte as Second Keeper of the Royal Robes (1786-1791). Fanny Burney married Adjutant-General in the army of Louis XVI Alexandre-Jean-Baptiste Piochard d'Arblay in 1793. He had fled to England after the Revolution. They lived in England and spent ten years in France (1802-1812).Burney's mastectomy took place 30 September 1811. The patient wrote about her experience nine months later. She chronicles the origin of her tumor and her pain. She is constantly watched by "The most sympathising of Partners" (128), her husband, who arranges for her to see a doctor. She warns her sister and nieces not to wait as long as she did. At first resisting out of fear, the patient agrees to see Baron Dominique-Jean Larrey (1766-1842), First Surgeon to the Imperial Guard.He asks for her written consent to guide her treatment; her four doctors request her formal consent to the operation, and she makes arrangements to keep her son, Alex, and her husband, M. d'Arblay, away. Her husband arranges for linen and bandages, she makes her will, and writes farewell letters to her son and spouse. A doctor gives her a wine cordial, the only anesthetic she receives. Waiting for all the doctors to arrive causes her agony, but at three o'clock, "my room, without previous message, was entered by 7 Men in black" (136).She sees "the glitter of polished Steel" (138). The extreme pain of the surgery makes her scream; she feels the knife scraping her breastbone. The doctors lift her up to put her to bed "& I then saw my good Dr. Larry, pale nearly as myself, his face streaked with blood, & its expression depicting grief, apprehension, & almost horrour" (140).Her husband adds a few lines. These are followed by a medical report in French by Baron Larrey's 'Chief Pupil'. He states that the operation to remove the right breast at 3:45pm and that the patient showed "un Grand courage" (141). She lives another twenty-nine years. It is impossible to determine whether her tumor was malignant.

Summary:The Renewal of Generosity: Illness, Medicine, and How to Live contemplates the phenomenon of generosity as it is realized in the stories of physicians and patients. For Arthur Frank, generosity is grounded in the willingness of people to give themselves over to dialogical processes of communication wherein participants best realize themselves through relational engagement: generous, dialogical communication leads to a renewal and realization of human being. Health care systems today tend to impede communicative generosity, however, and the result is a de-humanization and de-moralization of both physicians and patients. As a remedy, Frank proposes, first, that we re-figure our conceptualization of the physician-patient relationship—from the economic or business metaphor of "provider" and "client," we should turn to the metaphorical conceptualization of "host" and "guest," which clearly has implications for manner of treatment and communication that occurs in the relationship. In addition, Frank turns to and thinks with stories of physicians and stories of the ill to reflect on the ways that generosity is realized. Drawing on the wisdom of the striking philosophical triumvirate of Marcus Aurelius (Stoicism), Mikhail Bakhtin (Dialogism), and Emmanuel Levinas to amplify the reflections emerging from the physician and patient stories, Frank ultimately proposes "exercises" for training to generate a vivifying generosity within the medical profession, which can in turn lead to a re-humanization and re-moralization for physicians, improved care for patients, and enhanced flourishing for all.

Summary:Wandering in Darkness is an intricate philosophical defense for the problem of suffering as it is presented by medieval philosopher Thomas Aquinas.The work addresses the philosophical / theological problem of evil, which might be expressed as follows: if one posits an all-good, all-powerful God as creator, yet suffering exists in the world, then (a) God must be evil, since he created it; (b) God is less than all-powerful, since suffering came to be in his creation, and he could not stop it; (c) God is evil and weak, since suffering came to be in his creation, and he did not want to stop it; or (d) suffering is an illusion. No alternative is, of course, very satisfying. In her book, Eleanore Stump augments Thomas Aquinas's theodicy by reflecting upon what she calls "the desires of the heart," a dimension of human experience that Aquinas leaves largely untreated in his consideration. Stump explores this dimension by breathtaking exegeses of Biblical narratives as narratives: the stories of Job, Samson, Abraham, and Mary of Bethany. "Understood in the contexts of [these] narratives," Stump argues, "Aquinas's theodicy explains in a consistent and cogent way why God would allow suffering" (22).

Summary:A young man lies propped up on pillows, his hand pointing toward a bandaged area on his side. The composition is a powerful diagonal sweep, the body in the bed forming a triangle. At its apex, the head of the man with its mass of dark hair is haloed in the white of the pillow. His dark, glistening eyes arrest the viewer, demanding attention and implicitly evoking sympathy. Neel's expressionism is displayed in the elongated curvature of the neck, the ears splayed out from the head to rest on the pillow, and in the eloquent gesture toward the bandage.

Summary:In the first part of this poem ("Sugar"), Dickey gives a wonderful series of images of diabetic symptoms: "I thirsted like a prince," "my belly going round with self- / made night-water," "having a tongue / of flame . . . . " The doctor preaches insulin and moderation. The poet tries to comply. He seems to accept this new life, "A livable death at last."In the poem's second part ("Under Buzzards"), the poet and his "companion" climb to a point on Hogback Ridge where they see buzzards circling. Seeing the birds of death, he reflects on his life and illness. Is all this medicine and moderation worthwhile? What will they accomplish? Regarding the body, the poet writes, "For its medical books is not / Everything: everything is how / Much glory is in it . . . . " In the end he takes "a long drink of beer."

Summary:States of Grace follows Dr. Grace Dammann, a pioneering HIV/AIDS physician, as she navigates life following a catastrophic motor vehicle accident that leaves her severely physically disabled. Before the accident Grace was a devoted caregiver at work and at home. She was the co-founder of one of the first HIV/AIDS clinics for socioeconomically disadvantaged patients at San Francisco's Laguna Honda Hospital, honored for her work by the Dalai Lama with a 2005 Unsung Heroes of Compassion Award. She was also the primary breadwinner and parent in her family with partner Nancy "Fu" Schroeder and adopted daughter Sabrina, born with cerebral palsy and HIV. During a routine commute across the Golden Gate Bridge in May 2008, Grace was struck head-on by a car that veered across the divide. She miraculously survived—her mind intact, her body devastated. She endured a prolonged coma, innumerable surgeries, and a marathon of rehabilitation. The documentary picks up Grace's story when she is finally discharged for good. She returns home to acclimate to a radically altered life, one where she is wheelchair-bound and dependent on others for simple tasks of daily living. The film captures the rippling effects of the accident on all dimensions of Grace's life—personal, professional, psychological, spiritual, and economic—focusing especially on how Grace's disability turns the family dynamic on its head. Fu becomes the primary caregiver to both Grace and Sabrina, Grace becomes a care-receiver, and as Grace describes "Sabrina's position in the family [is] radically upgraded by the accident. She is so much more able-bodied than I am." We witness her frustrations with the limitations of her paralyzed body and see her, at one point, arguing with Fu about her right to die if she continues to be so impaired. Some of Grace's ultimate goals (to walk again, to dance again, to surf again) remain unattainable at the film's conclusion, but she sets and exceeds new ones. Grace "comes out" as a disabled person in medicine, returning to Laguna Honda Hospital as its first wheelchair-bound physician, where she is appointed Medical Director of the Pain Clinic. She resumes the caregiver role, but with an intimate knowledge of the lived experience of pain, suffering, and disability.

I absolutely loved fall 2010 Burberry Prorsum collection. In fact, I think their show was the best part of Milan's week.
I can't wait to get my hands on this buttons sweater as well. Thanks for the close up pictures.
