It's not my usual posting day, but I have a smitch of time and some odds and ends for y'all.
Simon Owen of the media commentary and interview blog Bloggasm has an interview with yours truly. He does his research on everyone he contacts, which makes for some interesting questions (also check out the interview with C. Max Magee of The Millions). I got a chance to send shout-outs to my favorite book industry lit-bloggers at the end; thanks for being around, guys!
- - -
Two blogs have posed open-ended questions to readership lately, and I thought I'd extend the questions to you. Feel free to respond in comments here, or on the source blogs.
Matthew Tiffany of Condalmo asks, what's with the hostility toward the short story? I never got around to answering the question myself, but several others did, and Matt has compiled their comments in this post. Feel free to continue the conversation with your own thoughts on short fiction and its discontents.
Dan Wicket of the Emerging Writers Network forwards the question of EWN member Quinn Dalton:
"Hey Dan! I'm moderating a discussion at my local library about the role libraries can play in communities—how it can best support what people need and want, with all the available resources online. I wondered if I could throw this out to the EWN membership—folks could answer any or all of the 3 questions as they please:
What do you want from your library these days (ours already supports online book discussion groups, video/audio downloads, online catalog and many search engines).
What do you see happening with publishing now and in the near future—print on demand, e-books?
What are the best online resources—blogs, literary communities, etc., that you use on a regular basis these days (we'll assume EWN is at the top of this list)?"
Any thoughts on the role and potential of libraries can be emailed to Dan by clicking on the "Email Me" link on the left of the Emerging Writers Network site. Your answers might play a role in helping readers, writers and libraries find ways to link up!
- - -
Dan was also the one who sent me his responses to the little "One Book" survey making the rounds among blogs. I'm usually mildly opposed to such memes, but this one was too much fun to pass up. You can read my responses below. Then make your own answers and send them to me! (And also send me links to other blogs that have already responded -- I can't find or remember them right now.)
One book that changed your life.
Annie Dillard's Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. One of the only nonfiction books to ever make me cry, and one that shocked me into new ways of looking at the world, myself, and the art and purpose of writing. (Also Thornton Wilder's The Bridge of San Luis Rey and Kapuscinski's The Shadow of the Sun.)
One book that you've read more than once.
L.M. Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables -- I actually read the entire series every summer in my teens. It probably gave me some hopelessly romantic notions, but I like to think it also taught me a little about the power of imagination, family, and place.
One book you'd want on a desert island.
David Mitchell's Cloud Atlas. Favorite book of the last ten years -- I've already read it twice, and I feel like I could read it another dozen times with satisfaction.
One book that made you laugh.
Allessandro Boffa's You're An Animal, Viskovitz! made me snort aloud in public places. Couldn't sell it to anyone to save my life, but the chapter where a snail falls in love with itself is one of the funniest things I've ever read. (Also White Teeth, The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists, and every Jeeves & Wooster book by P.G. Wodehouse)
One book that made you cry.
Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things had me wracked with sobs; my college roommate got a little worried. (But a lot of books make me cry, as the ALP can attest. Everything Is Illuminated, Cloud Atlas, Caddie Woodlawn -- almost any emotionally resonant book can make my throat hurt and vision blur.)
One book that you wish had been written.
I wish C.S. Lewis had written more Chronicles of Narnia. The world he created seems like it has space for infinitely more stories, and I wish he would have complicated it a little more.
One book that you wish had never been written.
The friggin' Da Vinci Code. I hate that people confuse fiction with fact; I hate that people accept bad writing for the sake of a "fast pace"; I hate that every bookstore has had to sell it in order to stay afloat, and that every conversation about the state of the book world has had to mention it. I'm just glad it's finally starting to die down.
One book you're currently reading.
Shelly Jackson's Half Life. Brilliant dark comedy about unhappily conjoined twins in a world where radiation has made "twofers" a powerful special interest group -- cleverly speculative, psychologically astute, symbolically resonant, imaginatively bizarre. Good stuff.
One book you've been meaning to read.
Laura Miller's Reluctant Capitalists, about the evolution of the bookselling industry. Nonfiction is a lot harder for me to motivate myself to read (and this is a dense academic book), but this is a subject I'm deeply interested in, so I'll get to it.
Hope to hear from ya!

"Favorite Way to Volunteer"
The following is a continuation in a series highlighting members of the League of Women Voters of New Jersey.
While she was reading through the daily newspaper, Anne Maiese came across an article about the League's work on an important local issue. Intrigued by the piece she decided to call for more information and learn how to become involved. After attending her first meeting, Anne says:
"…I realized the League was my kind of organization—smart, informed people who were concerned about what happened in their communities, no matter how small or large one defined that term."
Joining the League of Women Voters of New Jersey (LWVNJ) gave Anne the chance to become more involved in the community and contribute her valuable opinions within a nonpartisan environment. She was impressed by the respect people have for the League as a nonpartisan organization, and the good work it's done over the years educating people about voting and important issues. Anne says it has provided her with interesting activities, intellectual stimulation, and many good friends. How could anyone resist becoming a part of such an inspiring and powerful organization? Anne believes others should get involved with the League because:
"It's a great way to participate in your community—improving it for the long term by becoming informed and encouraging others to become informed and involved too. And you can have a much greater impact being part of a group than by acting alone."
Anne's work with the League of Women Voters significantly impacted her community. Camden County has an Open Space Fund partly because the League of Women Voters promoted it, and over 500 high school girls in the last decade have been inspired by the "Running & Winning" Workshop to be more involved in politics. These are among the many wonderful outcomes of the League's work which makes it an extremely important asset to the community. Anne says:
"Its process of studying the issues before it takes a stand on them makes it unique among other 'political' organizations. It helps people register to vote, holds candidate forums and provides information about candidates and ballot questions with no agenda of wanting them to vote a particular way."
The League supplies communities with multiple resources to become wholly involved in government. Many of these resources are greatly helpful for voters to become fully informed and educated about what exactly they will be voting for in hopes of creating a society that reflects the wants and needs of the people. When asked about the importance of voting and actively participating in government, Anne says:
"I've never experienced not having the vote or the opportunity to participate, but I know how hard-won those rights are and don't ever want to take them for granted. Besides, I ALWAYS have some kind of opinion on issues, and I want to express them!"
Everyone deserves to have their opinion represented and thankfully, the League makes this easier by providing resources to make the publics' voices heard. Anne believes New Jersey would look much different without these helpful services, which include impartial moderators for candidate forums, a voter hotline 1-800-792-VOTE (8683), the Citizen's Guide, and a website– all tools that help the public understand issues, find answers to their questions, and get active!
Members like Anne work so hard to make a difference in the lives of many. Her selfless and enthusiastic attitude towards the League's work made her a valued and much appreciated member, ultimately resulting in her being elected the President of the League. In this position, she continues to work hard to carry out the League's mission to promote political responsibility through informed and active participation in government. While Anne's work with the League shapes society, the organization has also shaped her own life. Speaking of this, Anne says:
"Being a member and a leader within the League has allowed me to understand many issues I wouldn't have been aware of and to meet and make friends with many others who are concerned about the same things I am. It continues to be my favorite way to volunteer."

Now that there are two photonics companies committed to coming to Rochester, hiring people, and growing their businesses locally, there's a chance that other businesses could partner with them and profit off the growing photonics industry.
At least, that's according to Bob Duffy, CEO of the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce.
"You're gonna have a lot of companies here that we are blessed with that are very high tech, very progressive, forward-thinking technology companies that are somehow involved in photonics."
The Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce sponsored an event at the Strong Museum to update local businesses about the AIM Photonics Center, and how they can use the center to partner with other businesses in distribution or manufacturing.
Duffy says they are trying to downplay the quick expectations, and talk about long-term investments and growth.
Over two hundred people attended the event.

MKin, 2017
Research Assistant in the Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic Surgery at McMaster University
Being a part of this program allowed me to collaborate with other students and faculty members. Not only did I get to learn from these collaborators, but I learned that a problem is better solved when examined from multiple lenses. These are the lessons that I have carried into my current position and plan to apply throughout the rest of my career.
MSc, 2016
Third year PhD student, Queen's University
When starting my Master's degree at Laurier, I already knew that I wanted to pursue a career as a professor/scientist in academia and therefore focused on obtaining the research/teaching experience necessary for me to achieve this goal. Fortunately, there was plenty of opportunities for me to do so at Laurier and the skills I obtained as a graduate student have allowed me to successfully progress through my academic career thus far.
MSc, 2016
Research Associate for the Division of Paediatric Surgery at the Children's Hospital at London Health Sciences Centre
Throughout my studies in the Master's program I was able to learn and develop many skills that are not limited to the ability to write scientifically, perform statistical analyses, and present in front of large audiences. Learning these valuable lessons, and working with exceptional professors during my thesis, gave me a distinct advantage in the job market.
MSc, 2012
Assistant Professor, Western University
In addition to having the opportunity to work with a leading expert in an area of research I was keen to explore, the vibrant sense of community among the students and faculty provided a supportive yet challenging environment for my graduate studies. The weekly research seminars combined with specialized courses helped me to acquire the necessary skills and experiences to conduct rigorous and meaningful research. Outside of the classroom, the department's strong links with the Waterloo community also afforded opportunities to engage in community outreach initiatives and knowledge translation.

The Polisario Front leader, Mohamed Abdelaziz, seems to have disappeared since the return of the UN mediator for Western Sahara, Christopher Ross, to Algeria, part of his second tour in the region since the beginning of the year.
According to persisting rumors in the Tindouf camps, Abdelaziz has disappeared because of a lung cancer that is now at an advanced stage.
However, a Sahrawi dissident who is well informed about what is going on in the corridors of the Polisario General Secretariat HQ in Rabouni said that Mohamed Abdelaziz was forced to inactivity by the Algerian military intelligence services (DRS) after he committed a blunder with Ross.
Abdelaziz has not been heard from since February 17, when he visited Algiers with his close aides and some notables of Sahrawi tribes. The Polisario delegation was summoned to Algiers to give explanations to the Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal and his Foreign Minister, Ramtane Lamamra, on their talks with the UN mediator.
Algerian leaders have seemingly been worried by rumors claiming that the Polisario had accepted the UN mediator's proposal to resume peace negotiations on the basis of the Moroccan autonomy proposal.
According to the Sahrawi dissident from Rabouni, Mohamed Abdelaziz had previously been scolded by the DRS Officers for having accepted, without consulting them, the new proposals made by Christopher Ross during his previous visit to the Tindouf camps.
The Polisario leader had reportedly agreed to resume negotiations on the basis of the Morocco-proposed autonomy plan, an option that is rejected by the Algerian government.
The Algerian government actually upholds the independence of the disputed territory as such an option would give Algeria direct access to the Atlantic Ocean, and consequently enable it to reduce the transportation costs of its exported oil and gas.
According to the Sahrawi dissident, Mohamed Abdelaziz is temporarily kept away from the Tindouf camps management and was not involved in the military maneuvers held on March 29 – 30 in Tifariti buffer zone.
And of course, Abdelaziz's long absence provides ample opportunity for speculation on his succession.

Ini Umotong scored the only goal as Brighton secured a 1-0 triumph over Zenatha Coleman's Valencia in a friendly match on Friday.
The English side, who are on a pre-season tour of Spain, took on the Spanish side in Torrevieja. Both teams are gearing up for the new season which kicks off on September 8.
Before the tie, Umotong scored in Brighton's 5-1 thrashing of Crystal Palace in the preseason opener at the American Express Elite Football Performance Centre three weeks ago.
On the other hand, Coleman was rejoining her teammates after a disappointing outing with Namibia at the Cosafa Women's Cup as they failed to go past the group stage in South Africa.
The Nigeria international, who came on as second-half substitute scored the winner for Hope Powell's side in the 52nd minute at Estadio Municipal Vicente García.
The Namibian, who started the encounter, could not help her side avoid an opening pre-season defeat to the English side.
Brighton will open their new season campaign at Bristol City on September 8, while Valencia will begin their Liga Iberdrola outing against Real Sociedad a day earlier at home.

The English Premier League Makes a Sports Logo Change
Logo change announcements are fun. You see them all the time as teams develop a fresh look which coincides with brand new merchandise. Sports Logo changes aren't as common when it comes to leagues changing their identity, especially when that league is one of the most popular in all of sports. Today we look at the recent change in logos for the English Premier League.
Here is the old logo:
Logos courtesy of sportslogos.net
And here is the new logo:
As we look at the two images, the current (soon to be old) image is drastically different than the new logo. The lion is, and always has been, the representative of the Premier League. It's legendary and historic. The logo symbolizes what English soccer is and that is king. As the lion rules the jungle, English soccer or as the rest of the world calls it futbol rules the sport. I'm glad the organization decided to keep this icon as their focus.
The outgoing image is bold. It has an essence of dominance. The lion wears a crown, representing his reign. And with his paw on the ball, we see that soccer is his kingdom. The blue is simple, representing loyalty and trust. The soccer ball in red, representing passion, stands out in the logo. And of course, the script "Premier League" runs across the bottom of the image, large and bold. Overall, it's a classic image.
As we prepare to part ways with the old, and bring in the new, we see that an obvious overhaul has taken place. The lion is still the center of attention. The body has been eliminated, and just the head remains. Of course the king still wears his crown. In the new arrangement of images, we see that the logo as a whole has been simplified. All in all, I'm not a fan. While I can understand the need for a new and refreshing image, I feel the Premier League hasn't made an improvement. The new logo lost something in the transition. It isn't as fierce, or defiant. It isn't as dominate. And that's a shame for the league that has dominated the sport for so long.
You know who else dominates in the world of soccer? The Arizona Pricks. Cactus can be quite prickly, and no part of the United States features more cactus than the beautiful state of Arizona and its most prominent city, Phoenix. Phoenix also has a huge soccer following. We've teamed the two together to form the Arizona Pricks Awesome Sports Logo. Hard to believe that nature can be this funny, but there are actually cacti that look like man parts! This awesome tee is great to wear when you want to tell that certain person in your life what you really think of them… Instead of letting it out, just point to this awesome t-shirt! Where there are cacti, there are a lot of pricks. Be sure to add this super soft tee to your t-shirt of the month club rotation.
Thanks for reading and supporting us!
YOU guys are awesome!!

How to get the best from our people, on a tight budget AND with maximum impact
By Grant Verhoeven
A senior manager told me: "There is only one thing worse than spending money to develop our staff, that is to not develop them, have them become disengaged and keep them."
With the rapid pace of change, it is essential that we foster environments and build organisations that allow people to bring "their best" to work. Leaders and managers need to be able to empower their staff to solve problems, rather than just telling them what to do. Teams need to be more proactive to respond to client demands and with limited budgets, we need to be able to ensure that what we spend on staff development makes an impact.
The not-for-profit and do-good sectors have no shortage of passionate, motivated people. The very fact that there is a bigger cause other than just profit is why the majority of people choose the sector.
There is a war for talent with people who are experienced, often being approached by other organisations. There are high-pressure demands, that if not managed well, will cause people to leave for greener pastures, with the result being thousands of dollars of revenue being absorbed into the need to train new staff.
As a leader, manager or team leader do any of the following problems ring true?
- Staff not respecting or understanding each other's preferences and differences
- Spending too much time telling people the answers to problems they can solve for themselves
- When asking for help with a project you are greeted with silence
- Staff looking to you for their career progression, rather than owning it themselves
- Sensing some grumblings in terms of staff engagement or negative team members
- Being uncertain of how to manage and support teams through change (and even yourself).
One of the key factors linked with employment satisfaction and retention is the degree to which people have the opportunity to know, use, a be managed according to their strengths at work.
The Gallup Strengthsfinder is one of the most tested and well-researched tools to help people understand and assess what they do best at work. It can be used to identify team blind spots and build a language between team members that gets them working together as a "one team", as opposed to feeling frustrated by different ways of working.
Helping people identify and understand their own and others strengths is like trying on a new pair of glasses at the optometrist and realising that things can be clearer, sharper and brighter. That everyone doesn't work the same and that if we play to our strengths, we will be happier, achieve more and experience much more fulfillment at work.
Gallup research points out the chance of someone being actively disengaged goes down to 1% if managed based on their strengths, rather than 40% if their manager ignores them (Source: Gallup).
We can instill a new "Business as Usual" or BAU culture in our workplace using Strengthsfinder. Here are the 3 key parts.
B = Being aware
Understanding our strengths and doing the assessment is the first part. This then allows us to ask questions such as "Am I the best person to do this role?" or "Is there someone else who could do it better, faster and easier?"
Strengthsfinder builds a common language and trust in a team by giving a positive framework that people can share and talk about. Without this awareness, often people find themselves either communicating with others in a way that doesn't land, or doing parts of a project that don't fit, which leads to a feeling of frustration.
A = Appreciate others' strengths
"Wow, now I see why they operate that way" is a common outcome. With strengths being positively based, rather than deficit-based it means participants feel good and celebrate their unique abilities and those of others. The chances of a participant having the same top 5 strengths, in the same order are 1 in 33 million – so diversity is to be celebrated.
U = Use our strengths
As leaders (or even aspiring leaders) we need to walk the talk. If we throw the assessment in the draw and forget about it, we have missed the point. Translating the insights from the assessment and the training into the day-to-day is what makes the impact. This is why a one-on-one debrief by a certified coach, is one of the fastest ways to translate the insights into action. I often call coaching the "crack cocaine of change". Done properly, professional coaching creates insights that propel people forward faster than they would move themselves.
In conclusion, we need to help people be, and bring their best to work. To do this, we need to be able to grow self-awareness and help them use their strengths.

Campaigners have called for a halt to the slaughter of goats in Snowdonia.
Several hundred names have been added to a petition calling on the National Trust to stop killing the goats which, the trust says, cause a nuisance in the Llanberis area.
The National Trust (NT) says a 'limited cull' of the goats is necessary because they cause a hazard on roads in the area and are eating farm crops. Marksmen are estimated to have killed 38 goats this year. Opponents of the cull say it is unnecessary and that the animals are a tourist attraction.
Roy Allen, who runs an animal rescue charity shop in Caernarvon, Gwynedd, is leading the campaign against the killings, He is urging holidaymakers who visit the shop to fill out postcards voicing their opposition and then sending them to the NT. He has also collected signatures on the petition.
Mr Allen says most visitors to the area don't see the goats. He says they are viewed as rare rather than numerous. The cull is also backed by the Countryside Council for Wales and the Snowdonia National Park. However, in March this year, Snowdonia authority said: "The national park authority, along with its partners, believes that the future management of the goat population must and will be determined by surveys, counts and specialist advice which will feed into a planned and forward-looking strategy.
"Sporting activities which include the hunting of goats within the national park are not considered by the authority as a sustainable way of managing the numbers of feral goats and therefore it strongly opposes any sporting activity which does so."
On its guide to the ascent of Snowdon by both the Pyg Track and Miners' Track, it lists the herds of wild goats as a point of interest.
The Countryside Council for Wales, however, says rare mountain plants are at risk from the animals: "These plants would appear to be safe in their mountain refuges but even they face challenges – from rising temperatures, acid rain, overgrazing by sheep and the attentions of increasing numbers of feral goats in parts of North Wales."
The goats were culled in spring this year, but the NT says the shooting of further numbers of the herds may be necessary.

InnerCity Struggle works with families on movement building on the Eastside of Los Angeles, specifically for healthy and safe neighborhoods. At the organization's new youth and community center, there is a message for families: "You belong!"
Along a bustling boulevard in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, the sounds of Mendez High School's Mariachi Jaguares filled the outdoor plaza of InnerCity Struggle's new youth and community center. Nearly 300 people gathered on a sunny Tuesday in May to celebrate the official opening of the new headquarters with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and building tours.
It's been a long time coming – five years, to be exact – for the staff and mostly Latinx community members, many of whom have been organizing together in East Los Angeles for the last 25 years.
The youth and community center is a nearly 6,000 square-foot, two-story building that's fully owned by InnerCity Struggle. It will be dedicated to training more than 1,200 youth and residents annually to take on policy campaigns to improve the quality of life on the Eastside.
"This center will serve as a vehicle for community organizing in the Eastside," said Maria Brenes, executive director for InnerCity Struggle. "Where residents, parents and youth will work on solutions to issues affecting their families and community. A place where young people can find their voice, and where families can advance change."
Even though the building is new, it speaks to a legacy of empowering Eastside residents to become active in their community.
The walls highlight InnerCity Struggle's contributions to Eastside families and young people. Posters with slogans like "Schools Not Jails" and "Love + Joy + Power" hang next to photographs of students protesting gentrification with signs that say "Push Us Up, Don't Push Us Out."
Colorful wall art promotes college access and showcases campaign victories against school crowding. There are also plaques and commendations that InnerCity Struggle has received for years of dedication to equity in Los Angeles.
Arianna Romero, a senior at Mendez High School and a third-generation Eastside resident, spoke during the ceremony about how being a "United Students" leader influenced her future.
"My time at InnerCity Struggle has inspired me to be a lifelong leader in this movement and fight against racist, anti-immigrant policies to protect our families," said Romero, who is headed to the University of California, Irvine in the fall to study political science. "My mother's dream has been for me and my siblings to live in a safe neighborhood, go to college and have the life she never had. I am living that dream."
The movement is intergenerational. Ana Alvarenga, a 13-year member of the organizing program for Eastside parents, said she got involved in activism in 2005 because her daughters invited her to a rally about education and the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) board.
"When I saw my daughter fighting for her education, I saw the leader my daughter had become," Alvarenga said, speaking in Spanish. "I realized that if my own daughter had the power to create change, then what was my excuse for not getting involved? It was the power I saw in my own children that empowered me to join InnerCity Struggle."
When Alvarenga first became involved, they met in a tiny room that barely fit everyone. She was too shy to speak up. Over time, and as the organization grew, she felt more comfortable using her voice for educational justice – particularly as a parent.
"This building represents a new era in this neighborhood, a time where we'll have the resources and space we need to unite our community to fight for change," said Alvarenga. "This organization is like a family to me. And now my family has a home."
The $6-million building includes a technology center for youth and an academic services room for after-school program participants. The heart of the building is the assembly hall, where the organization will provide training on leadership development, immigration, tenant protection, health care coverage and access to college. There's also a kitchen area, contributing to creating a welcoming, community gathering space.
The architects, Barrio Planners, incorporated modern Mexican architecture into the design. That's especially apparent in the sunny back patio which is full of succulents. The building is also completely ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) compliant and has gender-neutral bathrooms.
Local elected leaders and donors attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony. U.S. Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard, Los Angeles County Supervisor Hilda Solis, City Councilmember Jose Huizar and LAUSD Board President Monica Garcia were among those who spoke about InnerCity Struggle's work in the community.
"You have changed LA Unified [School District] in many ways. You have taught us all how to not be afraid, and be the district our students need and deserve," said Garcia.
"Your building says to all of our people, mostly low-income families, people who aren't at the front of the line in economics, 'You belong!' You say out loud, 'You matter!' You say out loud, 'Come close, join us.'''
InnerCity Struggle continues in the civil rights tradition of East Los Angeles, particularly Boyle Heights, which has been home to Chicanx organizing since the 1950s. The sense of joy and pride for what is possible in this new space was palpable.
Brenes, executive director for InnerCity Struggle, said: "On our 25th anniversary, we can say 'Si se puede!'"

- Billionaire Clothes Makers Trade Barbs Over How to Measure Customers. The subject of debate is the Zozosuit, a skin-tight bodysuit covered in polka dots that serves as a body scanner for measuring clothing size. For Yusaku Maezawa, founder of Japan's largest e-commerce company Start Today Co., his company's technology is a way to shake up the retail industry. To Tadashi Yanai, founder of Uniqlo operator Fast Retailing Co., the Zozosuit is more of a "toy." In an interview with the Nikkei published Monday, Yanai, a billionaire who built Uniqlo from his father's tailor shop into the biggest retailer in Asia, said the Zozosuit would be troublesome to use and didn't solve the key issue in clothing — that the feel of fit differed depending on the wearer.

The thing is that in daily life your choices might be based a lot on:
- How much money will you make?
- Is it practical or logical?
- Does it give you more power?
- Etc.
Now, imagine living with a new set of choice making questions:
- How much pleasure does it give you?
- Does it open space?
- Does it increase your life force?
- How exciting is it?
- Etc.
All these qualities are energies you learn to master and manifest in your life.
These gifts are responses to your actions and choices!
Certain actions will generate more money or more power. Some others will give you pleasure, delight, love or excitement.
Imagine that you have the choice between spending 3 hours driving, stacked in traffic jams or relaxing on a wild beach... What do you choose?
Imagine that you can spend your Saturday afternoon, stressfully shopping for stuff you don't need or simply going for a hike and meditating on a hill top... What do you choose?
Imagine that your choices are no longer rational but more excitement based.
When you connect with Mataji's energy and her shakti power, you might naturally shift to a more "pleasure and delight" oriented life approach.
Imagine what happens when you make choices based on how thrilled you are rather than on how practical it is.
I am sure that you already practice most of it.
Mataji simply gives you an extra reason to make delight, beauty and thrill choices rather than rational or practical ones.
If fun and delight are not part of your life right now, it's definitely a skill you can practice.
One word! Try it out!
To your Yoga!

Orly always seems to not get as much love as it deserves. The colors are not as exciting as some polish lines, yet, they are more colorful than Essie, for instance. I find Orly wears on me the best, though with all nail products, your milage may vary.
This particular shade is not from the spring collection, though it fits right in with the Sweet Collection for spring 2010.
I give you Orly Green Apple

An invention has made it possible to make a sheep disappear and appear again 2mm away from its original position. The invention only works with live sheep which sometimes have to be killed when it messes up.
The invention will be on sale in time for Christmas. It will probably be the domain of the super wealthy for the time being though, as it takes one million kilowatts of electricity per second to operate.
The inventor, Dr. Albert Dyson-Heisenberg told our science correspondent this morning that initially the transporter would cost £1.4 billion to cover development costs.
"Sheepdogs will become a thing of the past if the invention stops fucking up " Dr. Dyson-Heisenberg said. "It should be able to move a live sheep 5mm sideways eventually, although it still works out a little expensive. Currently when we throw the switch our electricity bill goes up by £400 000."
The researchers state that they can't predict which direction it will move the sheep in yet and sometimes it makes it a year older and partly cooks it due to the natural laws of Quantum Physics, but Richard Branston has ordered ten of them.

7th Digital Consumer Channel opens in UAE
DCC MEA brings together regional consumer electronics channel
Digital Consumer Channel (DCC) MEA opened in Fujairah, UAE today, to bring together retailers, distributors and vendors in the regional consumer IT channel.
This year's marks the seventh edition of the show, which has attracted 450 delegates and 60 international vendors.
"The MEA retail channel continues to evolve rapidly as vendors and distributors work hard to tap into growing demand across the region," commented Farouk Hemraj, CEO at DISTREE Events, the company behind DCC MEA 2011. "Despite some volatility in some markets, we have seen a great deal of interest from the retailers for our event because it gives them the opportunity to meet key decision makers from the vendors directly and discuss the needs of individual markets."
The event is a mix of boardroom presentations, keynote speeches and one-on-one meetings, to give the regional channel the chance to share new business opportunities.
The event also introduces a dedicated track for the gaming industry, GameStream 11, which is backed by RED Distribution, Sony and Microsoft.

In their statement, the liberals note that their presence in the pre-election debates next to "usurpers and initiators of the plebiscite will bring this event great popularity." And intending that this does not happen, they are going to ignore any invitations to defend their position.
In addition, the liberals called the referendum not the only way to stop the lawlessness reigning in the capital thanks to Chirtoaca and the liberal mafia, as perceived by the townspeople, but "the whim of socialists who, in their opinion, are wasting nine million budget funds."
It should be reminded that the Party of Socialists and the President of the Republic of Moldova repeatedly called on citizens to go to a referendum on November 19 and vote for the resignation of Dorin Chirtoaca. Only in this way early elections will be scheduled for the spring of 2018, during which every Chisinau resident will be able to vote for his or her favorite candidate.

Wall Street analysts expect a potential upside of 21.63% for Alexion Pharmaceuticals (ALXN) based on the stock's closing price on March 21.

Of the 18 analysts covering Alexion Pharmaceuticals, five have given it "strong buys," ten have given it "buys," and three have given it "holds." The highest target price estimate for the company is $188, and the lowest is $125.

The idea of walking across a tight rope suspended high above the ground would represent a profoundly daunting prospect to most of us, so imagine just how alarming this act might be had you to perform it with no harness or safety net to break your landing in the event of a fall. Human nature is driven by an instinct for protection and self-preservation from the vagaries that life can throw at us, and yet many of us somehow neglect this safety net principle when it comes to protecting ourselves, our loved ones and our way of life within our financial planning.
You do not need to be familiar with the terminology of financial markets to know that when a financial fund is labelled as a dog fund, this is not meant as some fond term of endearment. Rather than being something fluffy and family-friendly, a dog fund is one that has delivered worse returns than the market it invests in for three consecutive years, and by more than 5 percent over the entire three year period.

Without trying to sound too down beat as the performance was better and there seemed to be much more desire, but its going to take more than a defeat against a second string Chelsea team to get me excited about the future or to strengthen Unsworths credentials to lead us forward. And whilst we stayed compact we still conceded and is it tactical awareness when he said he was only ever going to play McCarthy for 60 minutes, the game had to open up cause he was taking him off, it was premeditated and not necessarily reacting to the situation?
With the above said there were numerous plus points from the game but I think the next 2 games will be the real acid test as Leicester will surely have a boost following Puels appointment and Watford are flying, hope Beni gets a run out in the middle for them though.
Can we stop calling the likes of Willian , Kenedy , Batshuayi , Christensen , Zapacosta , Cahill , Pedro , Drinkwater , Moratta and Fabregas 2nd string . Given the comparative strength of both squads it was a great effort under the circumstances .

Shot in the real-life contemporary art world, FEMALE HUMAN ANIMAL is a darkly romantic psychothriller about a creative woman disenchanted with what modern life has to offer her.When writer Chloe Aridjis curates the Tate retrospective of the surrealist Leonora Carrington, an elusive, brooding man appears, seeming to offer more.
But is she hunter or hunted?"Unnerving, riveting, and mesmerising.... The unity of Appignanesi's brilliant cinematic vision and Aridjis' compelling and vulnerable performance makes Female Human Animal resonate." LITTLE WHITE LIES"Near-uncategorisable. It punctures the pretentiousness of the art world-- and it's a triumph." THE OBSERVER

For many agencies the answer to the above question is no and that can lead to a lot of problems when it comes time for one or more of the principal owners to retire, which according to research done by Reagan Consulting will be sooner rather than later for the majority of agencies. In a presentation that was given to one of my clients recently they reported that the average age of agency owners was 54 and that this average age had increased by three years over the period from 2008 to 2014. Their Private Ownership Study, completed in 2010, was the basis for the presentation made to my client on the elements of a successful perpetuation plan.
In the past few months, the IA newsletter has contained a couple of articles on different aspects of perpetuation plans. One of them discussed the three major types of plans, sale to family members, sale to other owners or employees, and sale to an outside third-party (which is more of an exit strategy than a perpetuation plan). Each of them has their advantages and disadvantages. The first two ensure continuity of operation of the agency, but can falter if no family member is ready to take over and successfully run the agency or there are disputes among family members. Similar lack of readiness or disputes can also derail the sale to other owners or employees, and in both instances there may not be enough cash flow to support a buyout of the retiring principal owner for a valuation that is acceptable to that owner. The sale to an outside third-party would most likely result in the highest amount paid to the retiring owner, but there would be no guarantee that the agency would continue to be operated as before or that the jobs of employees who may have worked for the agency for many years would be preserved.
The other IA newsletter article discussed the timing involved in implementing perpetuation plans, which timing would also apply to a sale to an outside third-party. The consensus of the persons interviewed for that article was that implementing a successful perpetuation plan takes a minimum of five years. The first and perhaps most important thing that must occur is for the retiring principal owner to decide what they want to see happen when they leave, which requires them to decide what they want to do with the rest of their life. Do they want to stay involved with the agency in some way or would they prefer to devote themselves to some other interest or tour the world? Such lifestyle decisions will be an important factor in how much money the retiring principal owner needs to get for their ownership interest in the agency.
Once the initial decision is made about what the retiring principal owner wants to see happen, they need to determine if their preferred outcome is possible and then develop a plan to reach their goal. This is where the Private Ownership Study can be a valuable resource. It concludes that there are four things that must be in place for any perpetuation plan to be successful. They are a healthy agency operation, a reasonable seller, able buyers, and an effective ownership transfer mechanism. The Study explains what goes into each of these "Four Pillars of Perpetuation" and its Appendix C has a handy checklist that can be used to see where an agency may be lacking in the foundation for a successful perpetuation plan. What should give hope to any agency principal owner who would prefer to transfer their ownership to family members, other owners, or employees is that doing what it takes to make such an internal perpetuation possible will also maximize the value of the agency for an outside third-party purchase in the event the internal perpetuation plan does not work out.

Construction is now underway on the $104.1 million Bruce Highway - Cairns Southern Access Corridor - Stage 4 that will improve safety and access for heavy vehicles, visitors and local motorists from Kate Street to Aumuller Street.
This upgrade will involve widening a 2.6-kilometre section of the Bruce Highway from four to six lanes. This project will also include removing and replacing the existing northbound bridge at Chinaman Creek with a new three-lane bridge as well as widening the current southbound bridge to three lanes.
Other works will include upgrading the Lyons Street and Aumuller Street intersections with additional turning lanes that will help improve traffic flow.
"This is great news for drivers of around 37,000 vehicles that access the corridor every day, who will experience improvements in traffic flow, a reduction in urban congestion and overall travel time benefits.
"Widening the highway from four to six lanes will cater for the steadily increasing traffic flows along this critical corridor, to and from the Port of Cairns, the wharf precinct and the city's central business district," Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormick said.

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) has awarded the contract to build this project to the joint venture between Georgiou Group and Koppens Developments.
"We understand our client's needs and look forward to working with our partners - Koppens Developments - to provide a high quality project for our client and the local community," Georgiou Group CEO Rob Monaci said.
According to Queensland Minister for Transport and Main Roads Mark Bailey, the tender assessment for this multi-million dollar project involved engagement with local subcontractors and suppliers.
"The recent contract award to Georgiou Koppen Joint Venture means works have started to improve this vital link that drives transport, tourism and the Cairns' economy," Mr Bailey said.
The Bruce Highway - Cairns Southern Access Corridor - Stage 4 is expected to employ up to 120 workers during peak construction. The project is due for completion in 2021.
This project is jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland Governments, with each contributing $83.3 million and $20.8 million respectively.

Oh darling i found a way across the sky
Found a way that i could fly
To the origin of time
I rewound to a place i don't recall
When my mother gave me life
I don't remember that at all
As it's so far and the memory is gone
And my reverie is worn
I told you of my dreams
On a dark loveless night
You told me my name
I forgot it again
At the end of the sky
I go and i sit upon a rainbow
Shining like a spiders web
Flashing blue and flashing red
Oh darling it's flashing blue and flashing red
It will open up your eyes
That's the end of the sky
I'm sliding down,i'm going down from so far away
I'm sliding down,i'm going down
The rainbow is bright
At the end of the sky
My prayers,all my prayers are waiting there
I am caught upon a thread
Dying in a spiders web
And my love,all my love is shining there
I just want to know you care
Was it something that i said ?
I'm dying in a spiders web.
(Merci ? Baptiste pour cettes paroles)

We've been eager for Angels & Airwaves' new album ever since Tom DeLonge began teasing it last summer, and on Wednesday (April 8) the frontman let fans know it "is almost done," although the announcement was tied to some unfortunate news.
DeLonge took to Instagram to break the news that the band was forced to cancel its already rescheduled May and June tour dates as the coronavirus continues to spread across the world. "What a wild ride this year has been. Seeing how many people are affected across the world in so many different ways, it's clear this is a time to stop and focus on family, the people you love, and helping out your community," he wrote. "With this in mind, and the ongoing dangers and self-distancing regulations surrounding this pandemic, it devastates us to announce that we are forced to cancel our May/June tour dates. Refunds will be available at point of purchase."
"We look forward to coming out with this new album when the time is right (as it is almost done)," he continued, "and after things get back to normal our touring will start up once again across the world to help spread the message that this band has stood for, for over 13 years.... hope."
AVA released two singles off the upcoming album last year — "Kiss and Tell" and "Rebel Girl" — but have yet to share new music in 2020.
See DeLonge's message below.
