I am adding a fair amount of extra data to the exception context message property when tracking exceptions but when I look at them in the dashboard they appear truncated and do not show the full message. Is it possible to increase the length of the context message for exceptions to see the full string?

So this is the New Year (academically)
Right. I'm planning on being a lot more proactive with this blog page thanks to some helpful advice from funtime Frankie. Hopefully I'll have weekly uploads of my work and I'll try to get some ideas down on here as well. Mobile internet is a great help for that.

Many men feel the size of their penis is inadequate. They choose to use different methods such as pills, pumps, weights and possibly gel to help enlarge the size of their penis. There are many products available that claim that they can increase not only the length of the penis, but also the girth of the penis. Many of these products cause health risks as well as risks to a person?s well being.
The Size Genetics Extender is a device that claims that it can increase the length and the girth of the penis. The device?s principals are based on the age old tradition of using traction to enlarge body parts. Women in Burma used it for their necks and other African and Amazonian tribes have used it for their lips and ears.
Traction is also used for traditional orthopedic surgery. It is used to encourage bone growth needed for certain conditions and in plastic surgery it is used fro tissue expansion to cover cutaneous defects, burn and areas of hair loss. Traction has also been used to stretch stunted arms and legs.
The Size Genetics Extender Device fits in the palm of your hand and is lightweight. It claims to give the user a more imposing member, increase blood flow and give the user more powerful erections. This product also claims to give the user an increase of length up to 3 inches.

A Temple Of Their Own
Chapter 1
The members of the Johnson's Mill Kindred sat around quietly talking among themselves as they waited for the meeting to begin. The Godi Peter Hansen, whose house the meeting was being held at, and the Godia Joan Bartlett, who was called Raven by everyone who knew her, had called the emergency meeting to discuss recent events that needed to be addressed. Peter and Raven could not have been more different in every way imaginable. Peter was an older gentleman of 53 years, layed back, and was a good listener. He never rushed to judge, or had a harsh word for anyone. He was well respected by the members of his kindred, but was considered a bit of an outcast in the Heathen community because his religious ideas were not mainstream. He believed in a fusion of reconstructionist and modern Asatru ideals, and that did not set well with groups that went one way or the other. Peter, however, was never one to dwell on the opinions of others, and always lived by a motto of " to each his own ". Raven was the other side of the coin. She was only 22, bossy, opinionated, and had a way of getting up in your face, and under your skin. She feared nothing, and no one, which often times got her into a lot of trouble. Peter and Raven did have one thing in common, however, and that was their love of the Gods and Goddesses, and a desire to bring back the old religion.
As Peter sat quietly waiting for Raven, he could not stop thinking of the reason for this emergency meeting. One of their members, a quiet young man named Richard Van Allen, had committed suicide, and now the kindred was having to deal with not only the loss of one of their members but also something that they did not want or need, media exposure. Everyone in the kindred knew that Richard was having trouble coping with the many problems that he faced in his life, and they tried to help him through his difficulties as best they could. Richard's mother was one of the richest women in America. After her husband died she had taken over Van Allen Enterprises, and turned out record profits every year. Her husband Jonathan, had gotten in at the start of the recycling craze and had cashed in on this new and lucrative business. After her husband died she turned her attention fully to her son Richard, and planned his whole life out for him. Unfortunately for his mother, Richard did not want the life that she was trying to force upon him, and he rebelled. Richard dropped out of college, and moved to this small town in the middle of nowhere called Johnson's Mill, where he was slowly building himself a new life. It was in this small town that he heard the calling of the Old Gods, and after a period of time joined the local Asatru kindred.
When his mother found out that he had left college and disappeared, she had a detective find him, and report back with his findings. When she found out that he was living in a small town and had joined a Pagan religion she became furious, and worried about what this would do to her good name. She hired a professional team of psychologists who specialized in interventions for those who became mixed up in cults. Richard was kidnapped right off of the street in front of his apartment and whisked away to a secluded location where he could be made to see the insanity of his choices. Day after day these " professionals " drilled into Richard's head that he had been brainwashed by a cult, and that these Pagans were evil, and not to be trusted. They played with his emotions, and only allowed him to rest when they felt they had reached their goal for the day. The de-programming put poor Richard over the edge. He had barely been able to handle his life before he had gotten to Johnson's Mill, but the life he had built for himself there had started to heal all of his mental wounds. The thought of having to go back to the life his mother had planned for him made him physically sick to his stomach. Richard became so terrified that his mind became muddled with depression, and desperation took over his thoughts. He became so distraught one night that he tied his bed sheet to the bottom of the leg on the bed that was closest to the wall next to the window, and tied the other end around his neck. With tears flowing down his face he sat on the window sill, looked up at the sky and apologized to All - Father Odin, and then jumped out. He fell about six feet before the sheet tore into his neck and mercifully broke it.
Richard was found hanging against the outside of the house the next morning. The local papers had a field day with the whole Pagan angle, printing headlines that read : ' Pagan Hanging ! ' and ' Another Cult Tragedy ! '. It was at this point that the Godi Peter Hansen decided that he had better call an emergency meeting of the kindred members. The kindred had tried to keep a low profile in the largely Christian community by meeting at a different members house each time, and not doing anything that showed them in a bad light. Now they were headlines news, and were fully outted in their community. The kindred needed to address these issues, and try to find answers.
Raven showed up fashionably late as always. She liked to make a grand entrance, and she was sure to walk around and greet everyone who had come to the meeting. Peter and Raven took turns speaking, and from time to time a member would make a statement, add a thought, or ask a question. As the meeting began to wind down Peter noticed a stretched limousine pull up in front of his house. As Raven spoke he watched as the driver got out, and quickly walked over to the rear door, and opened it for his passenger. Out of the limo stepped an older woman dressed in a black dress that even a novice fashion expert like Peter could see was made by one of those world famous fashion designers. As she walked away from the car Peter sensed an air of wealth and power that was projected just by the gate of her steps. He thought it was odd for someone like that to be visiting a little backwater town like Johnson's Mill. Peter considered it to be even stranger when she turned onto the walkway that lead up to his front door !
Just as Raven ended the meeting a knock came upon his door. When Peter opened the door and greeted them, it was the driver who spoke first.The driver, who was a huge man built like a weightlifter, looked at Peter and said in a gruff voice: " Elizabeth Van Allen has come to see Peter Hansen. " Peter looked first at the driver, and then over at the mother of Richard Van Allen, and his mind raced in all directions. Was she here to see him beaten up because of her son's death ? Or was she here to announce a huge lawsuit against him and his kindred ? Peter replied in a nervous tone : " I am Peter Hansen, how may I help you Mrs. Van Allen ? " Elizabeth Van Allen replied in a voice that was devoid of all emotion : " I wish to speak to you alone Mr. Hansen." Her tone did not allow Peter to say no, so Peter opened the door and invited them in. To Peter's relief Mrs. Van Allen told the driver to wait in the car for her. The driver nodded and answered : " Yes Maam", and went back to the car.
Peter showed Mrs. Van Allen into the living room, and seated her on his best chair, just as the last members were leaving. Raven saw something strange in Peter's eyes that she did not like, and asked if everything was alright. Peter assured her that he was fine, and thanked her for coming. As she left Raven took a second look at the woman, and then made the call me later hand signal to Peter. Peter nodded that he understood and gave her the sign of the Triad and said : " Go with Odin's wisdom, Freyja's love, and Thor's protection." Raven nodded, and responded in kind. As Peter closed the door he looked over at Mrs. Van Allen and realized that he was actually afraid of this woman.

Kirsten Dehlholm - Hotel Pro Forma
The students in the class Experimental floral design went to Copenhagen to visit an amazing and true artist.
Kirsten Dehlholm created this company in 1985, so this year they are celebrating their 30th year anniversary. It all began with smaller productions, and it has developed to bigger performances that has been evolving around the world. Until now there have been 30 big productions and 20 smaller ones.
Experimenting with light and space, is something important and iconic for Kirsten. She is very facinated with space and wants to bring the space into the stage.
We also went to see her exhibition on GL Strand in Copenhagen. To make perfomances into exhibitions was a difficult thing to do, Kirsten said.
Here she took fragments and parts out of her perfomances and made them meet each other in a new way in this exhibition. This gave all the perfomances a new dimension, and opportunity for the audience to reflect.
Some of her perfomances are; Kosmos+, Operation:Orfeo, Black Box and War Sum Up. Some of her upcoming perfomances are; NeoArctic and Madame Butterfly.
We also went to see her exhibition on GL Strand in Copenhagen. To make perfomances into exhibitions was a difficult thing to do, Kirsten said.
These props are from some of here perfomances. Random stuff with no meaning.
You should investigate this woman and her thoughts more!

After yesterday's long day and the comfort of the "At Water's Edge" B&B, it was difficult to get on the bike this morning. But I knew today's ride was less than 50 km and at the end of it there would be time for some rest. Surprisingly, once I got moving, my body cooperated and any "ouchies" were manageable–I'm sure the Tylenol helped!
We got to Port Hardy shortly after noon. If you know me well, you should be sitting down for this next part. We are staying at a hostel. Yep, you read that right, a hostel. After my experience in Spain, walking the Camino, I've been quite clear that I would never stay in a hostel again. Never say never. For a lot of reasons this was the right choice for this place. Laundry and kitchen facilities, location, availability of a private room and cost. The very friendly host even upgraded our room to one with a private, partial bath. To make things even better, at the moment, we are the only people here. After this experience we might even try another one.
Since we've done a week of riding, we've got a better sense of what need/want and what we don't. Today we loaded up an arm load of stuff, bought a mailer envelope and sent some stuff home. I realized I wasn't going to use my outback oven, even though a good friend helped modify it for the trip. If I'm not baking, I don't need my collapsible bowl. The idea of knitting socks as we traveled across the country was an impractical idea. If we really want to play cribbage we can manage with a deck of cards. Why were we carrying a second bottle of shampoo with us any way? We won't miss the 2kg of weight and packing will be easier without some of those bulky items. For the second time in one day, I was reminded of the Camino, sending unwanted items ahead.
We've had a lovely afternoon wandering through this town, enjoyed some time in the local coffee shop, picked up a few groceries, spent some time with our feet up.
Just so I don't forget, this week we stayed in Maple Ridge, Parksville, Courtenay, Sayward, Port McNeill and Port Hardy.

The Project Issue #2 and Seed Caches
I do like seeing new material coming out for MP. Though in Issue #2 of The Project that just got released, I saw one thing that just seemed off and did the math as I am wont to do.
The article mentions a cache type for a community that is one Pelican case with 1250 packets of seeds. The seeds are chosen for the region, climate, etc and are enough to supply four 100 acre farms for four years. Looking at some agricultural data, the average amount of seed for an acre of land using direct seeding (planting directly in the soil versus starter bed and transplanting seedlings) is right around two pounds. The average density of seeds is about 30 pounds per cubic foot. That comes out to 200 pounds per farm per year or 3200 pounds of seeds, or about 107 cubic feet.
The largest Pelican case I can find is the Mobile Military MM08 Pallet-Ready case at 35.8 cubic feet (internal capacity). So three of these will do the job. It will still fit inside a large sewer vault as the article mentions, but to call it 1250 packets in a single case and imagining carrying the case, opening it and handing a farmer a few small packets to plant is not exactly the right image.
RPG designers and writers almost never do all the research and almost uniformly hate to do the math.
Try searching Seed Bank Kits like Heirloom Seed Bank Kit, they should give you an idea of how the kits should look
The image that ArmySGT. posted is very telling. That bucket supplies enough seed for a 2 acre plot. Just two acres. According to what else is on the website, that bucket holds 1.8lbs of seed but there are just over 55,000 seeds in that.
So using that as a basis for some really rough estimates, 100 acres would require 2,750,000 seeds so four x 100 acre farms would require 11,000,000 seeds.
Even without that crude info, I think most people would realize that the proposed Pelican case of 1250 seeds is would be hopelessly unable to supply one 100 acre farm for even one year let alone four.
So four farms for four years?
The Project proposal isn't just overly optimistic, it's so ludicrous as to make you laugh. Or cry.
The website that ArmySGT. linked to makes for a much better Project proposal. One bucket of 55,000 seeds for two acres appears to be enough to feed one family with some surplus so to my mind, a Project seed cache would be say, twenty of these 2lb pails (holding 1.8lbs of seed) to give 40 acres of crop. All that for just 40lbs weight and it's not particularly bulky.
If all that crop is kept as seed then (again using rough & optimistic estimates), the next season you could potentially have 80 acres of crop.
Yes it's going to take some time and probably requires the people being helped to be councilled not to eat the crop but if the Players like the rebuilding aspect then that sort of time period is a good tie to the community they're trying to help.
Farm Pail
Homestead Pail
Livestock Pail
So a few of those blue drums that can be used as rain barrel full of repackaged seeds should work.
The 55-gallon blue rain barrel might be the best form factor for the original intent of the cache. You need just shy of 15 of them to hold the required number of seeds. Spread that over 16 barrels, and you have one barrel per 100 acre farm year. That way, each barrel will have enough empty space for educational material, like planting and growing guides, preservation techniques and a cookbook with balanced nutritional plans for the plants grown.
I go with the Pelican 1630 M.O.B. Case for the seeds and education material, and have 55-gallon blue barrel packed with a crop irrigation kit.
I'm REALLY not comfortable with the idea that the Project could store sufficient seeds for several farms. Would it not be more plausible to have enough seeds for lots of vegetable gardens? That way, the Project could provide a way for people to obtain the necessary micro-nutrients and vitamins
This might be an interesting possibility
Does it really matter? Barring some exceptional technique, the team should know when they wake up and discover the year that these seeds are no longer viable. I wouldn't waste too much time on an irrelevant set of crates that should be immediately abandoned.
Of course it matters. Seeds found in many places that have produced viable plants have been carbon dated as being more that 1000 years old a number of times. It all depends on storage conditions. At 150 years of well controlled storage you will have a lower rate of germination, maybe lower than 40%, but that can still be useful.
And some references on permaculture, other sustainable farm techniques. Spare tool handles, for 5 years after there would be a lot of heads in garages and barns.
Wandering around the net looking for sites that relate to this topic, I found the following information from this site: - https://www.thespruce.com/how-many-v...garden-1403355
Quote: In How To Grow More Vegetables, intensive gardening guru, John Jeavons, says youll need about 200 sq.ft. per person to grow enough vegetables and soft fruits for the growing season at intermediate yields. To grow all the food for one person's needs for the whole year requires, for most people, at least 4,000 square feetthough some diet designs are possible that can use a smaller area. :EndQuote
200 sq.ft per person or for those of us in metric, approximately 18.6 sq. metres.
For comparison purposes, 1 acre = 43,560 sq.ft.
So in regards to Morrow teams trying to help out with agriculture, a typical vegetable garden as we envisage it, would be a supplement to whatever other food gathering practices a settlement has. The idea of stocking seeds to help establish even 2 acres of crop will obviously need a substantial amount of seed (based on the figures for a 2 acre plot in the website that ArmySGT. linked to).
Rereading the cache description provided by mmartin798 I realize that I thought the cache held only 1250 seeds but it actually meant 1250 packets of seeds. Even with that correction I think that those packets will not hold enough seed for a single 100 acre farm for four years let alone four 100 acre farms for four years.
I think it would work better if that allocation of 1250 packets was meant to supply up to 100 acres of crop, but 400 acres and for four years just seems wildly optimistic.
NB: For all the conversions I've been using http://www.onlineconversion.com/area.htm
800 year old seeds from extinct species of Squash grown in Michigan.
Heirlooms are old varieties that have become uncommon due to mega farms and mono cropping. Saving seed from each harvest will produce true and full varieties of the seed saved. Depending on the fruit or vegetable 10% to 50% would need to be unharvested until fully ripened to produce seed (onions. turnips, corn, etc). Tomatoes, squash, melons, are notorious for their seeds and none would have to be held back or ripened past a point for quality consumption to have enough seed for the nest years harvest.
1) Every species has its own period of viability. Some seeds are viable for centuries, some for decades, some for a few years. 150 years after sealing, most of the varieties will be long past their sell-by date, even if a few are still within range.
2) Not all seeds within a given species expire at the same time. If the mean survival of seed X under conditions Y is 15 years, then a few will likely still be viable at 30 or 50 years, but most will be long dead.
3) A lot of the news stories about ancient seeds being recovered miss that growing them required exceptional techniques and/or a lot of seeds per growing plant. The "Methuselah Tree" that was grown from a 2,000 year old seed was the work of a single dedicated grad student subjecting the seed to a number of techniques and materials that were not part of standard agricultural practice. The squash mentioned above does not indicate how many seeds it took or what the grower did to cultivate them, but I would be willing to bet that it wasn't "plant one seed, water and fertilize, yield one plant".
So my point is that if the viable period of the seeds is 10 years, then 150 years later there may be a small fraction of one or two varietals that will still grow with what the typical Team can do, but if the Project is going to grow from their seeds then they will likely need a better seed vault where the Project uses special techniques and facilities and personnel to preserve a variety of breeds long past their viable dates.
And there is one other point, I guess: Who is going to use this in a game? As has been noted by many on here, it is hard to get most players to get past shooting, I can't imagine a situation where an actual group of players is going to turn to an actual GM and ask about seed details so they can start the agricultural development stage of the Project. In every game I've ever played, these seeds are going to see two possibilities: being ignored, or being discarded. I don't see a player group doing any actual agriculture... ever.
Your points are valid. Even studies from 1961 showed that most food seeds do die off in large quantities within 70 years, though legumes were shown to be particularly hardy in this regard. This all seems to be a problem with the walls of the seeds being thinner on food crops. Weeds, with their thicker walls, can live several decades without careful storage and still be viable in large quantities.
Food seeds routinely get treated in a number of methods to inhibit molds and other pathogens that hamper seed germination. It is not outside the realm of possibility that, given the prevalence of nanotechnology in the Project, a graphene treatment is used that helps mitigate moisture loss and thereby improving seed viability. While this would not make the seeds immortal, such a treatment could help achieve the 40% viability at 150 years that would make such a cache still useful.
The whole seed issue does need to be addressed in some manner, as they are present in so much of game canon. Third edition has agricultural teams and seeds explicitly listed in Delta Base. Fourth edition also has agricultural teams and says they have seed stores and frozen livestock as well. So all these agricultural teams are either just some additional farmers with a supply of fertilizer trying to improve on some wild plants they find or they have the ability to quickly start up some new farms with their supply of seeds and start churning out lots of food and surplus seeds within three years. Either way could be a scenario for your game.
As to who would use the seeds in game, back in 1981 my group used them to help a community that had recently be attacked by raiders that burned their fields. So play group vary too.
And without that strangely prescient and expensive focus on preserving seed stock for 30x longer than it was expected to be needed, the stored seeds are almost entirely dead, with only a small percentage of a few varieties still viable. So why worry about the SWAP constraints of dead seeds?
Put another way, a Team focused on regional security faces very different challenges and will need very different tools depending on whether they are dealing with a war+5 population or a war+150 population. If the Team in question had, for some reason, one or more systems that depended on gasoline, they would in the latter case need to deal with the fact that their gasoline stores are no longer viable and that using those systems would require looking outside Morrow stocks. This is one of the reasons I am against jet aircraft in Project inventories and why I think the seed stocks (although both more durable and necessary) represent a resource that the Teams will need to replace.
Thanks for the input!

Hollywood Hootenany
So this morning I told my darling daughter that we were going to a street fair. To which she replied," I don't want to go to the street fair."
"Why not?" I asked her. "There's going to be lots of yummy food there."
"Because there will not be any jumping castles, presents, or lights. No swords or sticks or rubber duckies. There will be no presents or pets. It's only food."
Fair enough. However, I wasn't about to let the absence of the above-mentioned things get in the way of our going to the street fair. We convinced her to go with promises of applesauce and off we went.
After petting the goats, we sampled delightful gluten-free, raw, vegan goodies from many vendors like the scrumptious BBQ sauces made from SweetFire Barbecue, Mama Lil's zesty condiments, Manini's mindbogglingly awesome gluten-free breads and goodies, Laura's Wholesome Junk Food date sweetened Bite-lettes, Vega's new french vanilla flavored Vega One nutritional shake and Garden of Life's chocolate and vanilla RAW MEAL powdered drinks.
Now, that was my kind of festival since I absolutely adore trying out new, healthy and delicious ways to feed my body. After that, we did a quick stroll through the Hollywood Farmer's Market.
The funny thing? My darling daughter never once complained that there were no sticks or swords. Not once.

Texas RMEF volunteers and staff joined forces with the owner and manager of the Back Porch Ranch to treat six Wounded Warriors from Fort Hood to a few days of hunting, good food, story telling and camaraderie at the ranch last October.
When RMEF folks come together, good things happen. This was certainly the case during October 11-13, 2011, when RMEF staff and volunteers from chapters around the state gathered at RMEF member and donor David Watts' Back Porch Ranch just south of Rocksprings, Texas, to host a Wounded Warrior Hunt for six soldiers from Fort Hood.
Located on the western edge of Hill Country, the 5,000-acre Back Porch Ranch supports native white-tailed deer, turkeys and quail, as well as many non-native exotic species, including blackbuck antelope, axis deer and feral hogs. Watts provided the lodging, food, beverages and wild critters at no cost. RMEF volunteers and staff—including myself, Al Swertfager, Ronnie Creek, Gary Bowdoin, Mike Falk and Michael Gookins—served as guides. Spouses Cynthia Arnold and Donna Gookins volunteered as lodge and cook helpers.
The hunters included SFC Thomas Reifel, SGT Richard Ravenscraft, SSG Joseph Ruda, SGT Bobby Courtney, SPC Jesse Rice and PFC Matthew Ferguson. We all arrived Tuesday afternoon to sight in rifles and scout hunting areas for white-tailed deer spikes or does, axis deer does and hogs. Each hunter was allowed to kill one deer and as many hogs as they could.
We held the first hunt that evening, putting the large cleaning shed, complete with hoists and walk-in coolers and freezers, to work immediately. Ranch manager Crystal Michelle recorded all of the specifics for each animal harvested, as required by the ranch's wildlife management plan. Later, she prepared a fabulous meal that was enjoyed by all. Tall tales circulated around the fire pit late into the evening.
The next day dawned bright and clear. After an early morning hunt, we enjoyed a hearty breakfast. Some of the hunters returned to the field, while the others waited for the afternoon/evening hunt. The cleaning shed stayed busy throughout the day.
After preparing another wonderful meal, Michelle serenaded us with country-western songs and lively guitar music as we lounged around the fire pit and traded war stories and hunting tales. The festivities lasted into the early morning hours.
Thursday morning brought more sunshine, and the hunts brought more success. We field-dressed, skinned and hung the last of the game in the cooler before enjoying a memorable late brunch. All told, five of the six hunters killed four deer and seven hogs. One of the hunters had never hunted before, and two others had never killed big game. Both killed deer and were later awarded "First Harvest Certificates" from the Texas Wildlife Association.
Finally, it was time for everyone to bid farewell and head home. Watts proved to be a tremendous host, treating the hunters and volunteers like family. An RMEF State Grant paid for the game processing, and I later delivered the meat to the hunters.
The Wounded Warrior Hunt was an outing none of us will soon forget. The hunters greatly enjoyed themselves, and expressed their appreciation for the opportunity to get away from doctors, medical appointments, physical therapy and the military hospital environment. The quiet setting, hunting and social interaction proved to be great therapy sessions in their own right. The entire experience was uplifting and enjoyed by all. We volunteers look forward to doing it again.

The Color run is a 5k event where runners go on a 5k run and be doused with colored powder. They go all over the USA and organize the runs in most major cities. I was one of the participants in the Chicago/Aurora leg.
The run is a lot of fun. From beginning to end. We ran through a forest preserve and back to the River Edge Park in Aurora Illinois. At the end of the race, it's basically a big party for all the participants. With everybody throwing color up in the air while dancing. I managed to take some photos of the event with my camera and I had fun doing it.
|My camera after I shot the event.
If in any way you see yourself in these photos and don't want it online, please do send me a private message in my profile page in this blog.

We love a good fire pit, but they do take up space -which some people just can't spare. Want to have a stylish fire pit but still be able to use that space when you're not burning wood? Then you might just need this fantastic Hole Fire Pit by Italian design company AK47.
With the Hole Fire Pit, you can hold campfires and cookouts in your yard by night and still use your backyard for croquet, play dates, sun bathing and any other fun activities you might have in mind. That's because the pit is actually set into your yard and covered with a strong steel lid when it's not in use. You can even buy an optional stainless steel grill that fits across the pit so you can have delicious cookouts over your own private fire. The design can be added to any yard -just dig a pit and install.
If you're looking for something a little cooler that still can disappear to maximize your space, don't miss these great Hydrofloors that let you have a pool when you need it and an ordinary floor when you aren't up for a swim.

A common problem we deal with at LAPBC is burnout. In this article, I define burnout as long-term exhaustion and diminished interest in the work context. People come to us when they can no longer get their work done. Typically, by the time they get to us their life is out of balance: they are not doing things they like to do, and they are not doing things they know to be healthy for them. Frequently their lives have become limited to time at work, sleep, TV and perhaps time with the family but usually not doing much. How do boundaries relate to these things?
Boundaries are what define us, or more particularly how we define ourselves. In relationships, boundaries are how I define where I and my physical and psychological space ends and where you and yours begin. More generally, they define what is me and what is not me. Boundaries, and how we define ourselves, are present at all levels of our existence-physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual.
If we do not have awareness of who we are and what we stand for, we will not be able to maintain balance. Balance comes from within. It is a personal experience that we have, and we have to continually work at making adjustment in order to stay in balance. (Try riding a bike without self-awareness and continual change and adjustment.) Although there are many reasons for burnout, the most common component is a chronic lack of balance. This lack may be caused or contributed to by poor boundaries in one or more of the physical, emotional, mental, social or spiritual areas. Since all five areas are interrelated, and since defining and maintaining boundaries is a skill, if a person has difficulty with boundaries in one area, he or she probably has challenges in all the areas.
To see if you might have some difficulty with defining your boundaries, consider these statements:
This is not meant as an assessment. However, if you have difficulties with one or more of these, it would be useful for you to do some further investigation. The development of healthy boundaries can be learned. It begins with developing self-awareness. The knowledge acquired can be developed into skills with practice. These skills can be strengthened and the self-awareness increased by developing a practice of defining oneself and one's boundaries and of becoming more aware and respectful of the boundaries of others. This process will significantly increase your ability to maintain balance in your life and will decrease the likelihood of burnout.
At LAPBC we have a great deal of experience helping members who have burned out in one or more ways. We also have a lot of experience helping members to avoid burnout and to maintain balance in their lives. Please give us a call if you think you may have a problem or if you would like to develop skills to help you avoid problems in the future. We can provide one-on-one assistance, and we have courses and support groups to help provide the type of education and support that you might need and want.

Waverly, Franklin looking into schedule change solutions
Waverly School District staff are in the process of figuring out potential class schedules that would allow Waverly students to continue taking classes at Franklin High School next year after Waverly moves to a traditional eight-period schedule instead of a block schedule.
Superintendent Dustin Day said he is looking at the schedule, at potential new classes or electives for Waverly students and at how the two schedule models can work for students.
"We want the best for our students," Day said. "There are going to be some challenges, but both sides are willing to try and find solutions."
The Waverly School Board approved a contract with its teachers union in July. It stipulates that the district convert to a traditional schedule, with eight classes a day instead of a block schedule, by the 2018-19 school year.
The board voted in August to approve the contract-mandated schedule change and reaffirmed that decision in October, after months of additional discussion.
As a part of the move, teachers will teach more classes and class subject offerings could expand.
After talking with teachers about classes they could teach, the school sent out a student survey to gauge reactions to different subjects and potential electives, Day said.
While the schedule change is seen as a positive move, in part because of the potential for increased course offerings, the change does raise the question of how Waverly and Franklin will continue to share classes while operating on different schedules.
Franklin and Waverly have shared classes for more than 20 years, with agriculture classes being offered at Franklin and Waverly offering art and other classes, allowing student in both districts to have access to more subjects. The hope is that the effort will continue, Day said.
"There is the misconception that our relationship is ending, but that's not the case," Day said. "There is no animosity between the districts. We have no intention of jeopardizing that relationship."
The two districts have been working together since August to find possible solutions.
"I've been with (Franklin schools Superintendent) Andy (Stremlau) and we've been discussion some possibilities and things have been looking hopeful and positive on both sides," Day said.
Day has to have a possible schedule in place by December, he said. Once that schedule is made, he will work with Franklin to see how things can be moved to work into both schedules, he said.
"Our intention is to work with Franklin in this process and find possible solutions," Day said. "Both districts just want what's best for our students."
A representative from Franklin was not available Monday.

text: There are unwritten laws in jungle; laws that are older than time. All the inhabitants there understand and follow them without fail. Only one creature refuses to abide. And we know who that idiot is. For reference, let's go back to that glorious scene in The Jungle Book (2016) when all the junglevasis, big and small, gather at the river bank to have their fill. Nobody's attacking nobody there. Not even Sher Khan. On the contrary, he's wary of having a human cub (read: Mowgli) at the venue. Which is ironic given the feline's violent record. It's been a long thirsty summer and nobody could care less—other than Khan, of course—about a human presence. The reason why they could do so is there is a law in place. The reason Khan couldn't do so is he shares a history with our species. He knows what we are capable of. In fact, he knows what Mowgli is capable of even though Baloo and Bagheera pretend to overlook the endless possibilities. Wonder how the world would have been today if the two-legged beings could stick to the laws instead of fire.

According to a popular legend of this region there was a demon called Gayasur who
used to dwell in this forest. He had vowed that he would give his three daughters
in marriage to the person who could defeat him in the battle. Having learnt this
news the saint Phalgu accepted the challenge and by defeating the demon Gayasur
he married the three daughters. Gayasur bestowed a boon to Phalgu that the place
where saint Phalgu lives will be of immense significance from the point of view
of offering of 'Pinda' (food offered to the souls after death of an individual).
On the day of Somavati Amavasya in the month of Sravan (August-September) falling
during the Pitri Paksha or black fortnight. Somavati amavasya in pitrapaksha in
the month of Sravan is a rare occasion as it comes once in every 10 or 12 years
only. This is a special day for the offering of 'Pinda' to the souls for the people
of northern India. Hence people from all over northern India come here to offer
'Pinda' to their forefathers. Incidentally, on this particular day no 'Pinda' is
offered at Gaya, the regular, tirtha exclusively meant for 'Pind dan' where throughout
the year the pinda daan is don. Therefore, Pharal has thiws special privilege on
this day and treated as the Gaya of Northern India which enable the people to perform
'Pinda' daan.
Phalgu tirtha is located at Pharal, 33 km away from Kurukshetra on the Kaithal Kurukshetra
road. The tirtha is named after a saint named 'Phalgu'. The place Pharal is also
known as one of the seven ancient forests of Kurukshetra region. The names of the
forests are Kamyak van, Aditi van, Vyasa van, Suryavan, Madhuvan, Sitvan and Phalki
van or Pharal. Phalki van happens to be the prominent among the seven forests of
Kurukshetra. This tirtha has been revered both in the Mahabharata and Vamana Purana.
According to Mahabharata in the context of the significance various tirtha's and
their merits it is mentioned that the Devins beings used to do their penance with
austerity for hundreds of years at this Phalgu tirtha. Thus in their journey of
pilgrimage the pilgrims are advised to visit Phalgu or Pharal.

The Ex-President could face trial again alongside other 22 people.
The court in Peru informed that former leader Alberto Fujimori, pardoned by president Pedro Pablo Kuczynski (PPK) last December, could be tried again for the killing of six farmers in 1992. He said he would appeal the decision.
Fujimori's granted pardon was greatly criticized by many Peruvians and human right groups. It was given halfway through a 25-year sentence and based on health issues the Ex-President has, according to Kuczynski.
Yesterday, "the National Criminal Court's Court B ruled that the pardon would not excuse Fujimori from future trials involving the death of six people killed by a paramilitary group in the town of Pativilca in 1992, during Fujimori's 10-year rule.", explained Reuters.
Many also believe that this pardon had political motivations, but PPK assures it was completely humanitarian. According to the current President, doctors had determined that Fujimori suffers from a progressive, degenerative, and also incurable illness and that being in prison is a great risk to his life.
Fujimori's lawyer responded to the information about a possible new trial saying that he will appeal the court's decision. "He says he is innocent and will appeal against the court's ruling", wrote BBC News.
His health issues don't apply on this new case, which would also try 22 other people for the death-squad killings too.
