Date: 6/21/18
Dear Sriman Paramananda dasa,
Please accept my humble obeisances in remembrance of our trinity of Gurus.
I am pleased to inform you that all the Sridhara Maharaja transcripts you have sent us have been posted on our website as of about two weeks ago.
Immediately upon receiving them I began using them for my own research and found them to be extremely helpful. I often remember a few words exactly as I heard them from Srila Sridhara Maharaja that relate to some point I want to explore further. However, I would be at a complete loss to finding the full expression and the context without the help of the transcripts you have provided which allow me to do string searches to find the material I'm looking for.
As an example, only yesterday I was searching for the text related to these words I recalled hearing from His Divine Grace: "tank crushing the infantry." That was sufficient to find the full context of the points he was making:
Bhakti Vijnana Bhāratī Mahārāja: Mahārāja, there's one practical question. As in the case of Vijaya Tīrtha Mahārāja, we find that some of our God-brothers re-initiated his disciples, gave dīkṣā again, re-initiations took place. For example, Bhāvānanda Mahārāja, Svarūpa Dāmodara Maharaja, and Bhagavān Mahārāja, Rāmeśvara…
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: That may be done considering the acceptance of his Gurudeva. If a person goes through him, and goes through A.B.C or X, who may be accepted by his Gurudeva. With this internal understanding he may do that. "I shall take him to my Gurudeva." But he feels, "No." He'll be satisfied if he goes through that disciple," then he won't go. But he thinks that, "If I take him to my Gurudeva he'll gladly accept." That should be the inner adjustment. "He was mishandling and I'm handling properly, so my Gurudeva was dissatisfied with me."
___________________________________________________________ [?]
Bhāratī Mahārāja: But the śiṣyas were not dissatisfied. They were preached to in a different way.
Śrīla Govinda Mahārāja: _________________________________ [?]
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Forcibly manipulated.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: Forcibly, yes.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: They will have to give explanation there.
Devotees: (Group laughter)
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: With this inner adjustment they will have to do that, whether He's being satisfied with this work.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: It is very, very painful to the śiṣya and Guru.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Of course it is painful, it is very, very painful. Like cattle they're dealing with the human sentiments, pure sentiments, like gos [cows] on the ship.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: Yes, cattle.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Yes, cattle. They're being dealt with like cattle that belongs to the committee, not any sentiment between human heart. He's being ignored, he's being smashed, the connection from heart to heart, and from soul to soul. But by a tank, the tank is crushing this infantry. By tank crushing the infantry. It's something like that.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: So now, personally, how do we relate to those persons who have done that?
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: He's doing, in the consideration of humanity, and also a case of devotion, they'll have to incur a very grave situation. It is not a play, to play with the hearts and playing with the sentiments of the people, like a military campaign. So I told, the dollar, diplomacy, and despotism, in the name of devotion, dedication, and divinity. It is going on like that. This is my conception. The play of dollar, and diplomacy, and despotism, in the name of devotion, dedication, and divinity. Three D's, in the name of three D's. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.
Devotees: ______________________________________________________ [?]
Devotee: In what cases a disciple can reject his own Guru? [Under what circumstances can a disciple reject his guru?]
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Who have got some sense, some appreciation about the fine feeling and sentiment of devotion, they cannot crush like it is a demonic, a demonic attempt. Ignoring for person's soul, soul connection, they're going to committee connection, the computer is taking the position of the human soft heart.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: So Mahārāja, these persons are our God-brothers, but personally I don't feel any necessity in the future to even associate with them in any way.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: I think sincere men will not associate. That is a dangerous, heinous attempt in humanity. What to speak of in the religious world.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: For example, Bhakti Svarūpa Dāmodara Mahārāja will come here in a month or so to visit you, because he still thinks that he has done nothing wrong. He has re-initiated the disciples, some disciples, and he will come and visit you as if he has done nothing wrong. And when he sees…
Bhakti Svarūpa Dāmodara Mahārāja…
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: ______________________ [?] He came to me?
Bhāratī Mahārāja: He will come; soon he will come here.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Oh. He may come?
Bhāratī Mahārāja: Yes.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: He may come. But that is heinous.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: And he will act with us as if he has done nothing wrong. Then?
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: That may be his discretion, his realisation. But I differ fully from that.
I'm really, realistically I'm afraid to see their face, who are a party to that demonic activity. Heartless people. The other day by the order of Swāmī Mahārāja and that gentleman established a connection with them. And for some plea they're rudely severing that connection of divine sentiment. And they will be dealt [with] like that.
Devotee: ____________________ [?] As you sow you shall reap.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Hmm. They have no appreciation of soft dealing. It seems to me that I told, that to crush the infantry with the help of the tank. Just as America threw atom bomb to the innocent people. The victory of machine over the humanity, human hearts, human feeling. Fight, direct fighting, that is, that may be accepted. Who has come to fight, fight with him. But innocent man they're engaged here and there and they're crushed by some machinery efficiency. There must be some reaction.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: America will get that reaction.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: They'll see, they'll say, that for greater benefit we are bound to do this sort of things for higher, greater benefit. But the qualitative judgement should be there. This human civilisation, at the cost of the vegetable and mineral and animal living, by force of their machine and scientific knowledge they're robbing them, and their reaction must come. The law of karma won't allow them to get scot free.
Devotee: Guru Mahārāja, in which case somebody can reject his Guru?
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: That is less objectionable, personal dealings. "I can't put my faith on him for such and such reason." It is a simple case.
guror apy avaliptasya, [kāryākāryam ajānataḥ
utpatha-prathipannasya, parityāgo vidhīyate]
["A guru who is addicted to sensual pleasure and polluted by vice, who is ignorant and who has no power to discriminate between right and wrong, or who is not on the path of śuddha-bhakti must be abandoned."] [Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad, 179.25]
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Ah! A simple case. But forcible conversion like the Mohammedans, "There is a sword, and here is Koran. Accept Koran or be beheaded."
tṛṇād api sunīcena, taror api sahiṣṇunā
amāninā mānadena, kīrtanīyaḥ sadā hariḥ
["One who is humbler than a blade of grass, more forbearing than a tree, who gives due honour to others without desiring it for himself is qualified to always chant the Holy Name of Kṛṣṇa."]
[Śikṣāṣṭakam, 3]
This sort of maxim is being ridiculed and laughed at, by such attempt, in the name of future collective goodness. "There's gangrene." They'll say, "There's gangrene in the left hand, it must be cut off." Cruelly. To cut off [that is] one thing; and then to chew that thing, that cut off limb to chew… and devour; what is that thing? Hare Kṛṣṇa.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: So now that we're going to different parts…
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Cutting the limbs of Jayatīrtha, the Rāmeśvara and Bhagavān, no, they're eating that meat.
Parvat Mahārāja: Bhāvānanda.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Bhāvānanda.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: All of them.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: They're chewing and eating the meat of his limbs.
Parvat Mahārāja: Here he comes.
Bhāratī Mahārāja: He has just come in.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Who?
Parvat Mahārāja: Vijaya Tīrtha Mahārāja.
Devotees: No limbs. Limbless.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Govinda Mahārāja _____________ [?] Ha, ha, ha, ha. Extreme opinion. I am always for that. I am [a] notorious commentator.
Devotees: [Group laughter] Jaya!
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Acyutānanda and Narsing Kavirāja have remarked in my favour, that I am [a] severe commentator. Hare Kṛṣṇa. Gaura Hari bol. Gaura Hari bol. ____________ [?]
Now, hopefully, I will be able to remember "Extreme opinion. I am always for that. I am [a] notorious commentator." and add it to my remembrance of "severe commentator", "form breaker" and so forth.
Devotee: Whatever, what I'm saying is that devotees have a great reverence you. It was not that, only thing that they're little bitter now is that some of the people who have some criticism against the movement.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Reverence formal. What sort of reverence they have got towards me, do you think? Formal or material? Substantial, spiritual.
Devotee: Well I think for your knowledge.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Yes.
Devotee: For your…
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: No, no. Reverence for me is in a formal way, I think. At least now they have proved like that. They're more particular with formality, and formal help they want from me. But I'm not a man with formality. I more like spirit than form. Rather, I like to be a form breaker than form maker, if it is necessary for spiritual upliftment __________ [?]
Jayatīrtha Mahārāja: Yesterday they gave the report…
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: And it is there, sarva-dharmān parityajya [Bhagavad-gītā, 18.66]. what is that? What is the idea? Sarva-dharmān parityajya. And the highest goal, svajanam ārya-pathaṁ ca hitvā, bhejur mukunda-padavīṁ [Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, 10.47.61] Are you acquainted with this śloka of Bhāgavatam which is said by Uddhava about the gopīs of Vṛndāvana, about their qualification? Are you acquainted with this śloka of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam?
Devotee: No. Kindly tell me.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: So you should be connected and we shall have connection with the highest idea we have got in Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism. Where to go? What is our destination? What for we have come to ISKCON? A general call Swāmī Mahārāja has given to so many, crushing the pride of the present scientific civilisation. But what for? What is our aim, highest aim? You must be conscious of that, what for you have come. You soldiers, you are allied to fight with māyā, but what for? What is your aim?
Devotee: I'm thirty four.
Devotees: No, what is your aim? Why have you come?
Devotee: My aim is to serve the spiritual master and spread this movement.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: What is the conception? There are so many conceptions, Christianity conception, Islam conception, this varṇāśrama conception, Buddhist conception, Śaṅkarācārya conception, so many. But what is Kṛṣṇa consciousness that Swāmī Mahārāja gave to you?
Devotee: Our thinking is that we do not know Kṛṣṇa. We have no qualification to know Kṛṣṇa, but we know Prabhupāda, Swāmī Mahārāja. And therefore we want to serve him.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Ah. That is ______ [?] thing. Why? What is your Prabhupāda? There are so many Prabhupādas in the world. What is the peculiarity of your Prabhupāda?
Devotee: He's putting us at the feet of Kṛṣṇa.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Then what is Kṛṣṇa? He did not preach about Him. He preached about Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Devotee: Yes.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: And what is that Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Devotee: Surrendering to Prabhupāda means preaching Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: No, no.
Devotee: And to practice Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: He captured your mind through preaching through Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Devotee: Right.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: And what did you find peculiar in Kṛṣṇa consciousness that you left your previous religious ideas and joined Swāmī Mahārāja? You took so much risk. What is that Kṛṣṇa consciousness, you must know that.
Devotee: Yes, yes, we know whatever Prabhupāda has taught us.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Not hazy, not taking the name of Prabhupāda. _________ [?]
Devotee: Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Lord. Kṛṣṇa is the Absolute Truth.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Lord, that is a vague word. One will say Allah is the Supreme Lord. Another will say Jesus is the Supreme Lord.
Devotee: So He has a name, form, pastimes, paraphernalia, and they are non-different from Kṛṣṇa.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Then, yes, you are to know what is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Back to Godhead, what is that Godhead?
Devotee: We are being educated in our ISKCON society about that.
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Ha, ha, ha.
I was present during this discussion. The man Guru Maharaja is speaking to was Yashomatinandana dasa from ISKCON. Guru Maharaja was putting his feet to the fire asking "What is Krishna consciousness, do you know?" (paraphrasing). Again and again he pressed him on this point but Yashomatinandana could not give a satisfactory answer. I sat quietly listening to the exchange barely able to keep from trying to help Yashomatinandana by offering a verse I thought might satisfy Srila Guru Maharaja. That verse was this one:
kṛṣṇa-tattva, bhakti-tattva, prema-tattva sāra
bhāva-tattva, rasa-tattva, līlā-tattva āra
kṛṣṇa-tattva — the truth of Kṛṣṇa; bhakti-tattva — the truth of devotional service; prema-tattva — the truth of ecstatic love of Godhead; sāra — the essence; bhāva-tattva — the emotional truth; rasa-tattva — the truth of transcendental mellows; līlā-tattva — the truth of the pastimes of the Lord; āra — also.
Kṛṣṇa consciousness means understanding the truth of Kṛṣṇa, the truth of devotional service, the truth of love of Godhead, the truth of emotional ecstasy, the truth of transcendental mellows and the truth of the pastimes of the Lord.
—CC Madhya 25.265
By the time Srila Guru Maharaja came to saying this:
Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja: Yes, say something, but whatever you may say that will be superficial to me. That won't reach to the depth of my knowledge and experience of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Whatever you will see, and what all of you will see, that won't reach the depth of my knowledge about ISKCON, that is Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what is, who is Kṛṣṇa. You are all primary students, I think you so.
I was glad I had kept silent, lest his remarks be directed at me also.
I later told Srila Govinda Maharaja about this and cited the verse (kṛṣṇa-tattva, bhakti-tattva… ) I thought would be a proper response to Srila Sridhara Maharaja's question "What is Krishna consciousness?". Whereas Yashomatinandana was unable to offer even the minimum answer Srila Sridhara Maharaja was looking for, I was surprised to hear Srila Govinda Maharaja reject my verse on the basis that it went to far, to another level above what Srila Guru Maharaja was looking for from Yashomatinandana dasa.
When dealing with those fully situated on the Absolute Platform of Krishna consciousness, we will always find ourselves to be inadequate. That is my experience. Sometimes they are satisfied and happy with the most simple offering or gesture delivered by a devotee. At other times even complex philosophical expositions may be ignored as if they bore no significance whatsoever (Digvijaya Pandit).
The Infinite is like nothing else within our experience. He may be at one moment fully present before us and the next moment fully disappeared. In all circumstances and at all times He is wonderful, mysterious and beautiful.
I pray this finds you well in health and spirits.
Swami B.K. Giri

Exegesis has its etymological roots in a word that means "to demand"; we demand from a written work what it is most deeply trying to convey considering its origins, the author's intentions, the validity and value of its assertions, as well as the range, breadth, and depth of its knowledge. This complete understanding of grammar has long since been abandoned.
Grammar has suffered the same fate as theology and philosophy in this reductive age. Grammar has been cut off from its transcendent and philosophical roots. Grammar ought to embody the rules for the structure of language, which intend to reflect the hierarchical structure of the Cosmos. The lowest level of grammatical concern for the ancients has become the highest in the modern school. Prosody has gone under the knife of dissection to the point that literacy has become a sort of pseudo-linguistic analysis of the written word.
From the excellent Imaginative Conservative blog: "Dionysios Thrax, an ancient Greek grammarian, outlined the hierarchical structure of grammar from the least to the greatest. He began with prosody, followed by an understanding of literary devices, followed by considerations of phraseology enhanced by etymology. At the upper reaches of grammar we find analogy and metaphor, followed by the highest aspect of grammar: the art of exegesis."

Aibel Clinches Bacalhau FPSO Award
Japanese FPSO specialist MODEC has awarded Aibel a Letter of Intent for an engineering services front end engineering and design (FEED) in relation to the recently awarded Bacalhau FPSO contract by Equinor.
Bacalhau FPSO will be the largest ever FPSO to be stationed offshore Brazil with a production capacity of 220,000 barrels per day. The FPSO will be delivered by MODEC and will be deployed at Equinor's Bacalhau field (previously known as Carcará) in the Santos Basin off the coast of the state of São Paolo.
The Norwegian offshore engineering company Aibel said Wednesday that the LoI awarded by MODEC was for a FEED phase for management and basic engineering services with an option for an EPC contract including detail engineering, bulk procurement and construction of approx. 20,000 tons topside modules for the giant FPSO vessel. The project will be managed from Aibel's Singapore office
President and CEO in Aibel, Mads Andersen: "We have a long track record of delivering world-class FPSO topsides and modules. With this major project, we are looking forward to further develop the good and long-established relationships we have with both MODEC and end-client Equinor, and at the same time prove ourselves worthy of the trust we are given."

Aibel and MODEC will establish an integrated project team in Singapore. Aibel's engineering office in Thailand will assist with detail engineering.
Construction of the 20,000 tons modules, subject to the final contract award, will take place at Aibel's recently yard facilities in Laem Chabang, Thailand.
As a result of the contract, Aibel has said it will now strengthen and expand its engineering organization in Singapore.
Executive Vice President Field Development and Offshore Wind in Aibel, Nils Arne Hatleskog said:: "Over the years, our Singapore office has developed solid expertise within the FPSO field from early concept and study to final execution, and therefore it has become a hub for our strategic focus on the international FPSO market.
"We see a major potential in this market, and with this contract and a significant expansion of the office, we will put ourselves in a favorable position for future contracts,"
Engineering work starts up immediately at the Singapore office. Scheduled start-up of prefabrication for the topside modules is set for Q2 2021.
After completion, the topside modules will be transported to Singapore for integration onboard the hull, which will be built in China.

Inman News ranks Tucson as the fourth best place in the country to buy investment property now.
"The analysis considered markets with high affordability, low and dropping prices, a high market share of foreclosure sales, high population growth, an improving unemployment rate that is close to or better than the national average, high projected return on investment (ROI) over the next decade, and a low total cost of ownership-to-rent ratio."
While Tucson is great for long-term investors, the short term investors are also doing well by paying cash for foreclosed and distressed properties that don't qualify for traditional mortgage financing. The investors make the needed repairs, which may be as minor as replacing broken windows or replacing heating and cooling systems, and then selling the property for twice or more what they paid.
Not all these investors are actually paying cash. They may purchase the house with "hard money", meaning they get a loan at high interest rate from a private lender who, unlike the traditional sources of low cost mortgages, doesn't care about the condition of the property. The investor doesn't plan to keep the house more than a few months, so he isn't very concerned about the high interest rate he is paying.

As many have noted, Mexico is having a bit of domestic problem right now. Drug gangs are operating something just short of an open war with authorities, and it's not looking good for the government.
One of the bigger problems the Mexican government is having is that a large portion of the drug gangs' weapons come from the United States.
(Naturally, this being ABC, there are some serious flaws with the story. Flaws that can only come from the reporters not only being utterly ignorant of gun-related matters, but utterly terrified of them as well. But the flaws don't affect my point here.)
This, understandably, has the Mexican government a trifle concerned. They are deeply troubled at the rampant and unchecked flow of undocumented firearms crossing the border with impunity.
I, myself, feel sorry for these weapons. They're just poor weapons, killing the Mexicans that Mexican weapons can't be bothered to kill.
But nonetheless, something has to be done. If only there was something we could put up on the border, something that would stop this unceasing flow of undocumented weapons across the border. Something solid, something tangible, some sort of barrier that would restrict these weapons from crossing without being screened by authorities.
Something like a wall, perhaps?
Nah. That's just crazy talk.
Here's an idea I've suggested before: a gun exchange program.
For every illegal firearm the Mexican government turns over to the US, we give them back one Mexican here in this country
legallyillegally. Like in any gun exchange program, there will be no questions asked: one gun, one Mexican.
And before someone asks, no, this will be a strictly one-way deal. No Mexican gangs need bother offering to exchange Mexicans for guns, and no Americans can offer guns to Mexicans in exhcange for people.
This could be a great win-win deal for both sides. Which is precisely why I don't expect it to go anywhere.

Yesterday was a busy day and we celebrated Christmas with the family in this south east part of Sweden. Unfortunately, no snow, rather rainy and grey. We get all the Christmas feeling by watching the Disney parade that is run every Christmas even at 3 p.m. in Sweden. Our own Christmas tree filled with parcels under it, and the special food we eat. A quite and peaceful evening.
I got three books this Christmas. Aktiedrottning by Isabella Löwengrip + two other authors, My Name is Lucy Barton by Elisabeth Strout and My Grandmother Asked Me to Say She's Sorry by Fredrik Backman. I am also finishing, hopefully today, last year's Christmas book, Duktiga flickors revansch by Birgitta Ohlsson.
I wish you all a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a good end to the reading year!

This is your time to shine…
The one sure way to stand out this party season is to sprinkle some star dust.
Tis is the season to sparkle, whether you are a dressy person for Christmas Day and with New Year's Eve slowly approaching we are all in need for something with a little sprinkle of star dust.
Here are some of my Favourite Brand Rixo London:
I am a huge fan of sequins, so for me if I can find any excuse to wear them I will! They aren't that intimidating of an item to pull off. If you love the item just wear it. My only piece of advise for styling up sequins is keep the rest of the outfit relatively simple. You do not want to get mistaken for the Christmas tree. Or do you? Hmmm now I'm tempted to put on all my sequins and go out for a dog walk!
I have done my edit of sequins items, even the dress I'm wearing has a cheeky little discount so go on! Snap your self up some festive sparkle.

A new chapter in SPAN's 70-year history
SPAN, the Student Project for Amity among Nations, is writing a new chapter in its 70-year history. Minnesota's longest-running undergraduate travel and research program is relocating to a new institutional home, Hamline University, St. Paul. For the past seven decades the academic program has been housed at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Further information about this transition will be available here shortly.
Get a world away through research abroad
In summer, 2017, the Student Project for Amity among Nations, SPAN, traveled to two countries: Morocco and Russia to enable undergraduate students to pursue independent research. These destinations offered two dozen SPANners, as they are called, an opportunity to immerse themselves in another culture and country, to sightsee, and to explore a self-chosen research topic of keen interest to the individual student researcher.
Set your sights on traveling overseas with SPAN in summer 2020
First, learn more about this one-of-a-kind research and travel program. Visit the "About SPAN" tab on this website. There you can find out more about the long history and nature of this particular study-abroad offering.
Also read more about the 2017 destinations and the faculty who led the study and research student groups, namely Ryan Goei, Ph.D., (Morocco) as well as advisors Dana Lindaman, Ph.D., (Morocco) and Matt Miller, Ph.D. (Russia), who has previously led groups of SPAN researchers to Russia.
Remember, SPAN is open to students from all Minnesota colleges and universities. Check out this rewarding possibility, then apply to be a SPAN researcher for summer 2020. Upon completion of the requirements of the SPAN research program, SPAN researchers earn eight Hamline University credits; the credits can be transferred.
Every SPAN student is eligible to receive a scholarship.
Students previously traveled to Germany and Armenia & Georgia
In 2015, SPAN students visited Germany or Armenia & Georgia, former states of the Soviet Union. They compiled their research finding on a variety of topics: from quantum physics, Armenian genocide, and public health, to architecture, folklore and poetry. Upon their return from overseas, the participants met in a group setting or one-on-one with their faculty advisors to receive guidance on the basics of writing a substantive research paper.

How do you know when to choose a content management system as a foundation for your Website, and how flexible should it be? There could be many different reasons to choose this path, but I believe the most important reason is that we are humans and we get ideas and change our minds – often. How do you best plan for future needs without being overwhelmed right now by features you do not need right away?
If you think your Website is just going to be an online business card, and only that, you may wonder, why would you need a content management system (CMS)? I honestly wish people would stop trying to fool themselves or cheap out on this issue – it is your Website, your digital face to the world. Think of your Website as your vehicle – you may not want a flimsy little bicycle to take you around the World, you might need a car that is able to handle all the different terrains. It is the same for your Website. You may start out with one to five pages, but chances are, you will expand on that format sooner than later, or entirely re-purpose the site for different content. At any time during the process you may change your mind and if you already have a CMS in place, you will be able to change the theme and add features to your site such as a blog, forums, chat, or pretty much any functionality you can think of. The Drupal community is hard at work creating thousands of modules to extend the functionality of the software.
Cost Factor
If you have a static site that is created with HTML, you will have to hire someone with coding skills to add features to your site. This can be a costly proposition as well as time consuming and frustrating if you do not speak in programmers language.
One most treacherous hurdle is to find a new developer for your existing site when you have no idea what the original developer did to create the site. Even if there is documentation, it can take a good deal of time to sort out the past development in order to move forward.
Starting out with a full featured CMS as a foundation will enable you to grow at your own pace when deciding on interactivity or ecommerce for your site. Drupal works just as well for a very simple one to five page site, and yet it gives you the flexibility to expand and grow your business.
CMS: First Steps
These are a few ways to take advantage of using a CMS, each depends upon your skills and desire to learn:
- Installing a standalone software such as Drupal, Joomla, WordPress or many others, on your server
- Selecting a hosting company that auto installs and manages your CMS updates
- Using the proprietary CMS services offered by some hosting companies
Standalone vs. Hosted CMS
When considering Drupal or any CMS, be aware that there are costs associated with upgrades and updates of the core software as well as modules. One good reason to use a standalone CMS software is that you may choose to have features as you want them – if you are using a hosted proprietary CMS application on a hosting Website, they may upgrade and add features that you do not necessarily want or need. There is also the downside of customization – most hosted applications do not allow a programmer to make any custom modifications to their application/service. I say service because a host is really offering you a service when they allow you to use their proprietary CMS features.
With open source software the community will keep you informed on what the focus of new development will be – end user features or back end Administrative features and flexibility… I always choose back end development as I know the front end user part will come along soon, or is less expensive to have a programmer create.
Drupal vs. WordPress
So here is why I moved towards Drupal vs. WordPress – I hope this is useful to know, just for the sake of knowledge:
WordPress still has only two content types: Blog Posts and Pages. You can't easily have different kinds of pages, or different kinds of posts, or any different content types (reviews, news, events, etc.) that are not stored as a blog post or a page. That is a deal-breaker for many kinds of sites, especially if you want to showcase different products and services and list them separately – books, articles, seminars etc…, Another reason I moved to Drupal is the way you can easily control how lists of content are presented and viewed. The other reason is granular permission settings for users and for features – I will devote a blog to this subject soon.
So, the moral of the story is – if you don't need or want to control how lists of content are presented and viewed by users, then you don't need a very complex foundation. You can create a great Website using a simple platform like WordPress, or you can be more flexible and prepared for expansion if you use a framework such as Drupal.

Do you think you may be addicted to certain foods?
Ask yourself these questions:
- Do you crave certain foods even when you're not actually hungry?
- Do you find that when you eat these foods, you often eat way more than you intended?
- Do you hide your consumption of these foods from others? Even sometimes?
- Despite knowing about the negative consequences of eating these foods (declined health, increase in body fat etc) you still consume them regularly?
- Have you tried to stop eating these foods a couple of times or more without success?
If you can answer yes to 3 or more of these questions, you most likely have an addiction to those foods. IF not, you have a serious problem that is not going away any time soon.
Unprocessed foods are unlikely to be associated with addictive eating. The types of foods we are talking about are processed and contain higher amounts of sugar, fat and/or salt.
Because you are actually addicted to these foods, it will most likely mean that simply 'cutting back' on them for is not enough.
Methods similar to those used to quit smoking, alcohol or drug abuse will most likely be required. That is, totally stopping the consumption of the foods that affect you and bring out addictive eating behaviours.
This is because that an addiction to certain foods is EXACTLY THE SAME as an addiction to any of those things.
The exact same chemical processes cause the addiction – no matter why you started in the first place.
eat them anymore is the only way you'll succeed long term.
Because of this, I've always been a big believer in totally cutting out junk foods as the best way to take back control of addictive eating for most people.
This is easier for some and not so for others of course, but it really is the best way I have found from experience over the past 10 years.
Alternate behaviours, food choices and actions are usually required rather than a simple instruction such as 'stop eating chocolate' as well as support and accountability.
Breaking any addiction is really tough on your own.
Finding ways to start new habits, rather than just telling yourself you're not going to
You've probably been told that 'everything in moderation' is the key to long term success. But for food addicts, this could be really bad advice.
Like an alcoholic can most likely never drink again (or risk immediate re-addiction) it is also most likely going to be the same for you.
So what's the best way to tackle this?
1/ For one, stop thinking about dieting. Adding real hunger on top of trying to stop eating addictive foods will never result in success.
You need to follow a really filling, satisfying nutrition plan while cutting down on foods you're addicted to.
This is the exact premise of all of my nutrition programs – and almost by accident, people lose weigh anyway.
2/ Think about what foods you are going to replace your old choices with. Actually make a list and make sure you have those foods available and prepared at all times.
3/ Set a date and make the decision that you won't touch those foods again. Not a single time, not ever. This can be the toughest of all, but once you have decided, you can start taking action and start recovering.
4/ Accept that you'll have relapses and quit the guilt. However, after 2-3 attempts on your own, if you're not succeeding, seek help. A quick google search will find you loads of resources and organisations that specialise in food addiction.
5/ Keep a list of your trigger foods so that you can be totally aware of what you're going to avoid. These foods are different for all food addicts. It may be chocolate, lollies or cheesecake. It could be crackers, cheese or ice cream. Or it could be (and most likely is) a combo of addictive foods.
6/ Let go of your need to 'please' others because they insist you eat the foods because:
- they made them (using your kids as an excuse is common)
- someone purchased them for you
- it's a special occasion
Your food addiction is not about them. Your kids, mum, neighbour or workmates will still love/like you even if you don't eat their foods. Let's face it. These excuses were just that – you were justifying to yourself why you needed to eat them.
Many clients have successfully broken their addiction to certain foods with support from the entire FitterFaster crew.
Programs like my Ditch The Junk Challenge can help you to start the process – no confessions required.

How to Create an Email Newsletter People Want to ReadNovember 16, 2017One comment
The world we live in today is competitive, so it can be hard to find a way to make your brand stand out!
This is especially the case when it comes to email marketing. Consumers are bombarded with emails from brands every day, so how can you cut through the clutter and create a newsletter people actually want to read?
While email marketing can be challenging, it's also an amazing tool to reach your audience. So, at our 2018 Workshop, we're bringing in expert Lindsey Quinn from The Hustle! Lindsey is a pro at connecting with audiences through a unique, authentic brand voice. Read along to get to know Lindsey and get a sneak peek at what she'll be teaching at her Workshop session!
Tell us a little bit about your background and how you got to where you are today!
I went to college in Pittsburgh for biomedical engineering — not the traditional path for a business/tech writer. I didn't particularly enjoy it, but I was a practical Midwesterner convinced that working in tech was the only way I'd ever be able to get a job, so during school I took every internship opportunity, trying desperately to find something I loved:
I formulated surgical glue for a year, I worked in a lab where my job was to massage 50 obese lab mice with lotion (Every. Single. Day), and finally, I had an internship at a giant chemical company in Ohio, creating market research reports in a tiny grey cubicle in a sea of other cubicles.
But, I realized I could do my job in about 3 hours a day, and the rest of the time I started writing. They were just funny stories I'd send to a handful of friends, but it was the most fun I'd ever had at work, and from that point on I was determined to figure out a way to write for a living.
I started freelancing for engineering companies I'd worked for (I think the first thing I got paid to write was a blog for a plumber's trade magazine. I was ecstatic). Eventually I landed a content marketing job in San Francisco for a small software startup, and ultimately got introduced to The Hustle by a coworker who thought I'd like their writing style.
My coworker was right, and The Hustle was hiring. So, I wrote a funny cover letter, cold emailed them, and it ended up being an amazing fit. Now I'm The Hustle's managing editor, which is a lot like back in the day — but now I'm sending funny news stories to half a million friends, not just a handful.
In today's world, everyone is creating content to promote their business. How can having a unique voice help you stand out in the crowd?
So many businesses focus on "talking the talk," and using industry buzzwords to sound legitimate. But the reality is, people don't talk the way that marketers talk — and they can sniff out marketing speak from a mile away.
That means that writing from an authentic point of view in a way that is personable and real can be a huge differentiator — and the best part is, you don't need any special expertise, you just have to speak from a place of truth on a topic that resonates with you and your audience.
Creating content that sounds like it came from a real person is easy, because (hopefully) you are one. Not only is it more interesting to read, it can build an insanely loyal following that is rooting for your company to succeed.
"People don't talk the way that marketers talk -- and they can sniff out marketing speak from a mile away."
What are 5 key things that all pieces of good content have in common?
It's authentic (written from a clear, unique point of view)
It's valuable to the reader (be it entertaining, informative, or thought provoking)
It's concise
You would send it to a friend
It's fun to write
Today, our inboxes are saturated with emails. How does a company like The Hustle stand out in subscribers' inboxes?
Our witty, authentic tone is the #1 thing our readers say they love about us. All that means is that we write like we speak.
People are insanely sick of reading marketing bullsh*t. We give readers the news they need to stay informed and sound smart in front of their their coworkers, but there are a million business newsletters out there. Reporting the news in a funny, entertaining way is what gets people to open our stuff, not finding out about the latest merger (eye-catching subject lines like, "BEEP BEEP MOTHERTRUCKER," don't hurt).
At the end of the day, we love writing it, and I think that comes through in the final product. If a story's not fun to write, it's not gonna be fun to read.
What are some common mistakes you see businesses make when it comes to their newsletter?
A lot of businesses try so hard to appeal to a mass audience that they forget to speak to an actual individual that exists in the world. If you wouldn't send your newsletter to a friend, why would would you send it to thousands of people?
Real people are a lot more complex than the marketing profiles we create for them — if you can connect with even a small group of them, you'll gain long term supporters that are far more valuable.
The other big mistake I see is not respecting the audience's time. You have a vested interest in your story — it's your company. But your reader is busy, and if it's not adding value to their lives, they're not gonna read it. Keep it short and sweet, and put yourself in the reader's shoes: would you open this email everyday if someone else asked you to subscribe?
"Real people are a lot more complex than the marketing profiles we create for them -- if you can connect with even a small group of them, you'll gain long term supporters that are far more valuable."
What advice would you give to someone who wants to start incorporating email newsletters into their marketing strategy, but doesn't know where to start?
Start with the need: what do people need to know to improve their lives on a daily or weekly basis. The Hustle started as a blog, but our readers didn't need stories about founders microdosing LSD, or longform profiles on quirky entrepreneurs everyday.
The majority of our readers are entrepreneurial millennials, so we started sending them business/tech news stories to help them make better decisions at work, spark conversations with their boss or coworkers, or just stay motivated.
Sometimes your product doesn't directly translate to a regular newsletter, but something related to your brand or audience might. (AKA, if you're a hot tub company, you're probably not going to send a daily newsletter about hot tub maintenance, but you might send one with tips on throwing great parties).
What can our attendees expect to learn at your Workshop?
At my Workshop, attendees can expect to learn how to throw out traditional marketing buzzwords and write a blog or newsletter that real humans actually want to read.
On the newsletter side, they'll learn the kinds of content that work best for daily/weekly emails, as well as actionable tips on how to optimize for deliverability, subject lines, and shareability. On the blog side, they'll learn how to make their own individual perspective/identity come through in their content, and use it to build loyal fans of their business.
When you're not busy at The Hustle, what can we find you doing?
I love being active and I'm a huge comedy and live music nerd, so you can find me any day of the week at a concert, comedy show, or swimming in the bay! (yes, it's freezing)
Want to attend Lindsey's Email Newsletter session at The Workshop? Be sure to grab your ticket before they sell out!

Does anyone know how I can make my own cake icing ('frosting' for Americans) that is the same as the Sara Lee Chocolate Fudge one sold in containers? I love this stuff, but it's so expensive here in Australia!
Cathy from Townsville, QLD
This recipe was likened to Sara Lee's Fudge Frosting
Sounds YUMMY :)
"A good fudgy frosting for cake or cupcakes."
Original recipe yield: 1 cake or 2 dozen cupcakes
PREP TIME 20 Min
COOK TIME 15 Min
READY IN 35 Min
1/2 cup butter
3 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
1 pound confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup milk
Melt chocolate and butter in the microwave, or in the top of a double boiler. In a large bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, vanilla and 1/2 cup of the milk. Blend in the melted chocolate mixture. Add remaining milk, a little at a time, until desired consistency is achieved.
Let stand until spreadable (frosting will thicken as it cools).
Please check out the site and users reviews
Hi, I have a REAL FUDGE ICING (frosting) it is the very best, WITHOUT using icing sugar, powdered sugar or confectioners sugar, this recipe you can pour over the cake, it is WONDERFUL
"The Very Best Chocolate Fudge Frosing"
1 1/2 C's white sugar
1/2 Cup REAL Butter
1/2 Cup WHOLE milk
Boil hard for 1 minute
Remove from heat; ADD
12 -14 ounces Chocolate chips, mix thoroughly till all chips are melted & consistency is SMOOTH.
Pour over cake while warm
NOTE: Do NOT put vanilla extract in this recipe, because it will turn the icing to real FUDGE, (hard).
If you want to thin this recipe a bit use more milk or 1/2 & 1/2 (cream)
You can use cream instead of milk in this recipe, if you want.
It was really horrible! It turned out watery and messy. What's Icing without SUGAR? My cake was great but the frosting ruined it!

Small, low-cost projects combined with low exposure risk on some new installations may not necessarily warrant a detailed understanding of ground conditions, especially in areas of homogenous ground conditions not impacted by glaciers and coastal climatic actions. On many large, engineered trenchless installations, it is imperative for the engineer to understand the geological history of the area and determine the possible consequences and controlling effects that the geology has on the proposed crossing. Deciphering the underlying geologic history (and local anomalies) drives selection of the best and most appropriate trenchless method. Part one of this series looks closely at the complications associated with conducting long HDD crossings between and along the Coastal Plain Barrier Islands of the Southeastern US. An 18,000 LF installation of a 115-kV cable under Hamlin Sound SC will be reviewed in detail as a case example of the unique geological considerations associated with barrier island systems.

This 645Ci comes complete with the oppo spec manual and an interior covered with red leather.
While some of you might not be a fan of the rear, they really have grown on me over the years.
The wheels are also to my liking; however, the plastic red brake covers just look garish.
I've heard that a major issue with these is the valve guides wearing because BMW recommended an obtusely long oil change interval, which I have not adhered to in mine. Would like to take this home, but sadly I don't really have a place for three cars.

|The above will search this blog.
@NWFireScanner #smoke
A: Distance wise, it's a little, but not much, more than one tennis court.
Compare the above (taken last week but pretty much like this everyday) to my "normal" view here.
Before heading down the hill to work last Monday morning I climbed out a window and up to the top of my roof to capture this image.
For the details, click on the image a time or two.
The blossoms are all gone now, but last week (during a shower) they looked like they do in today's photo.
Ten years ago this tree looked like this.
Now the little girl that was under that tree in 2005 drives the blossom-covered car pictured under this same tree.
… of a white Christmas …
Took a little trip to Jacksonville this past Sunday and forgot my camera. The skies were amazing and downtown Jacksonville was deserted so it would have been fantastic for photography. Alas, by the time we returned home to Ashland the sun had set and the only hope of capturing the glory of the skies on that day was to leave the shutter open for longer than I can hold a camera still. So I headed up onto the roof and set my camera on the top of my chimney for four seconds to achieve this result.
Grizzly Peak is a bit obscured by the tree just to the left of center. I have another photo from a different vantage point on this evening of Grizzly Peak that I'll post at a later date.
Today's photo is of the most common view on this blog, out my window. It has been many months since I've taken a pic from this location. The view has been rather boring this summer with endless days of either blue or smoky skies. But yesterday the sunrise was rather nice with the smoke (from the Goff (aka Fort Complex) Fire that has been burning thousands of acres in the Applegate for over a month now) mostly gone and some interesting clouds.

CES for Marketers: Alexa Wows, Virtual Reality Underwhelms
Executives from Coca-Cola, Unilever, Johnson & Johnson among those making annual tech pilgrimage
Over the past few years the CES trade show has become a familiar post-holidays pilgrimage for many of the country's biggest marketers. They see the event as a way to get a sneak peek at the latest tech gadgets and technologies that can help them engage with their customers.
This year marketing executives from companies such as Coca-Cola, Unilever, UL -0.20% Johnson & Johnson, Campbell Soup and PepsiCo Inc. made their way to Las Vegas for the gathering.
The convention was jam-packed with everything from self-driving cars to robots that play chess to Procter & Gamble's air-freshener spray that can connect with Alphabet Inc.'s GOOG 0.11% Nest home to automatically release pleasant scents in the home.
But there was one category that seemed to especially win over marketers: virtual assistants. And it was Amazon's Echo, based on its Alexa voice-activated assistant, that had the most buzz. Powered by artificial intelligence, it allows customers to ask questions, control smart home devices, and order on Amazon.
"Marketing is much more about providing a great experience or a product that makes a consumer's life easier and one of the most interesting developments for our business is the virtual assistant," said Kristin Lemkau, chief marketing officer of J.P. Morgan Chase.
You can already see the potential for how Alexa, Apple's Siri and Google Assistant can "transform people's lives in the same way that apps did," she added.
Kieran Hannon, chief marketing officer of Belkin International, echoed those sentiments, adding that Alexa and Google Home can "replace the need for an app integration" for brands. Marketers, he added, should make sure they are incorporating these technologies into user experiences.
While there was plenty of hype once again around virtual reality during the event, some marketers are struggling to figure out whether this new medium, which has the potential to offer very engaging experiences, is a long term marketing play or a gimmick.
Is it "like 3D, which didn't take over as everyone had expected?" said Britta Bomhard, chief marketing officer of Church & Dwight Co., maker of Arm & Hammer branded products.
To date, virtual reality has been used as more of a one-off kind of marketing play and is largely still seen as experimental.
Some industry executives are convinced VR is better suited for gaming rather than as a marketing vehicle.
"There is no way most people are going to sit there with those big headsets on," said Irwin Gotlieb, chairman of WPP's GroupM, the largest media buying firm in the world. Instead, Mr. Gotlieb said he sees more potential in the advancements that TV manufacturers are making to enhance picture quality. Those, he says, will offer marketers more engagement in the long term.
Beyond trend scouting, there was plenty of schmoozing as media and tech companies pulled out all the stops to woo marketers.
On Thursday night, media advisory firm Medialink, along with Conde Nast and Universal Music, had Gwen Stefani serenade a room full of top executives including Interpublic Group CEO Michael Roth, Twitter Chief Operating Officer Anthony Noto and Shari Redstone, a power player in the media empire that includes Viacom Inc. and CBS Corp.

Just beyond the historic town of Lahaina, lies a lush vacation oasis for you to escape to. Aloha and welcome to your Maui beachfront lodging! With large windows and an open layout fronting Kahana's shores, simply step into the bright space for a relaxing experience.
Recently updated, this spacious 3 bedroom condo for rent offers 8 guests the unique chance at true island living. Featuring brand new artwork from local Maui artist along with new furniture, we have ensured maximum comfort during your Hawaii vacation stay. Some of the recent additions to take note would be an additional twin bed along with a desk placed in the living room for those who are taking a "working" vacation.
Step onto your 30-foot shaded lanai from either the living room or master bedroom or this vacation condo for rent, and enjoy the panoramic views of the tropical islands of Molokai and Lanai. Sit back and take in the beautiful sunsets, whale watching, and the sounds of the surf that lie just steps from your West Maui condo rental. We invite you to cook up a delicious meal in the fully-equipped kitchen with granite tops along with new stainless steel appliances, and savor the taste of Maui out on the lanai. You could even take advantage of the on-site barbeque to grill local flavors or maybe even your own freshly caught fish. After the first night you will see why this is the best place for a sunset dinner, you probably even opt for more nights in.
While the large windows and island breeze is sure to keep you cool on even the warmest days, air conditioning will be available for your added comfort! With aloha weaved throughout this 3 bedroom lodging along with other Kahana Village Vacation Rentals' amenities, you are sure to have everything you need to create a memorable Maui vacation. Hope to see you in this luxurious space soon, mahalo!
Stayed for my husbands 60th birthday with our children and grandchildren. Had the most wonderful time every. Very relaxing, very helpful staff and beautiful unit (#24). We all decided to book again for next year. Nice quiet location right on the ocean. Loved it!
Hansen Family - Mammoth Lakes, CA
Fantastic condo!!! Great location, everything we could possibly need! The view was breathtaking, mornings and sunsets on the lanai…ahhh…fantastic! My only complaint was not having enough time!!! Thank you…thank you…thank you!!!
Waldmans - Prospect Heights, IL
We love it here! The location is unbeatable, the grounds beautiful and the staff very attentive. We've stayed on this property before and will again. It is so peaceful. It doesn't get better than sitting on the lanai with a front row seat for whale watching! The staff are very friendly and helpful. Activities abound and are close by.
The units are spacious and well equipped. Falling asleep while listening to the ocean is heaven. On property perks are great too-no extra charge for parking, FREE wireless internet, and FREE long distance. It is really a nice change to not feel nickled and dimed to death. The Mai tai party is a great way to meet other guests and get ideas for things to try. The pool and jacuzzi are great too! We were here for Easter and the staff even delivered eggs from the "Bunny" to each unit for the kids! I can't say enough about this place. They really try to make sure everyone feels welcome!
maui_resident_wannabe - Vancouver, Washington
We vacationed with 6 people at Kahana Village #24 and everything was beyond expectations. The unit was very clean and well appointed, with everything we could possibly need. The pictures on the website do not do the unit justice. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we could possibly need, including a pineapple corer/slicer!!! An unexpected surprise was the beach chairs, a cooler, snorkel equipment, all available for our use. The view from the lanai was breathtaking, able to see whales from the comfort of home (brought our own binoculars) The location was very convenient to many stores and restaurants. The Mai Tai party was fun, and a good way to meet our fellow guests. Harmony and the office staff were very welcoming both on the phone when we made our reservations, and in person when we arrived. Have nothing negative to say, just sorry Maui is so far from Chicago.
grapesmom - Chicago, IL
When we turned into the parking lot at Kahana Village we knew this was going to be good, but by the time we had checked in and opened the door of Unit 24 we knew this was going to be our best vacation ever. And we were right!
Unit 24 is amazing! It's practically on the beach which is clean, accessible, uncrowded, relaxing and beautiful.
I loved the master bedroom with it's sunken bath, walk in shower, awesome views, and exit onto the lanai. The other bedrooms, bath and rest of the home are also well furnished and appointed. The kitchen has been updated and has granite counter tops and stainless appliances. The views from the dining room, living room and lanai are breath-taking. From the lanai we watched whales while we drank our morning coffee. I was even able to get a couple of decent whale pictures from the lanai. Things we loved were lying in bed and listening to the waves, breakfast on the lanai enjoying the view, walking on the beach when the sun was rising and again when it was setting, and playing in the surf, or pool. I guess we loved pretty much everything about Unit 24 and Kahana Village. The only thing we disliked was leaving.
